The Germans seem close to an atomic bomb.

0:00:020:00:03

We have no option but to go in and raid Bringle Sands.

0:00:030:00:06

Still, we can sabotage the rest.

0:00:060:00:07

You want me to get the King to Bringle Sands?

0:00:070:00:10

An American plane will fly His Majesty out to the Ark Royal

0:00:100:00:13

but only if we can get the King there in time.

0:00:130:00:16

These are the atomic calculations.

0:00:160:00:18

Spode photographed them.

0:00:180:00:19

You're the safer pair of hands to get it to America.

0:00:190:00:22

Bernard Staines is dead. Beaten to death from what I can tell.

0:00:220:00:25

What should we do? If he was tortured, if he talked?!

0:00:250:00:28

I want you to stand ready

0:00:280:00:29

to get out, as soon as I get Barbara Barga to you.

0:00:290:00:32

So Harry's right, you are up to something.

0:00:320:00:34

Tomorrow morning you will be ready?

0:00:400:00:42

-For Bluejacket?

-Yes.

0:00:420:00:45

You will come to the back of the hospital, an ambulance is waiting.

0:00:450:00:49

The army will help you this one time.

0:00:490:00:52

Barbara?

0:00:560:00:57

DOOR CLOSES

0:01:490:01:50

He's got the whole floor to himself, apparently.

0:02:000:02:02

Yeah.

0:02:020:02:03

You ever thought this could all just be a set up?

0:02:050:02:07

Only every five minutes.

0:02:070:02:09

Come on.

0:02:360:02:37

Doug.

0:02:470:02:49

Your Majesty.

0:02:570:02:59

HE GASPS

0:03:230:03:24

HE GROANS

0:03:280:03:29

Archer?

0:03:290:03:30

Morphine, for when the pain is too much.

0:03:340:03:37

All right.

0:03:410:03:42

Are you all right, sir?

0:03:520:03:53

Good luck, Archer.

0:04:060:04:07

God save the King.

0:04:080:04:10

DOOR OPENS

0:05:590:06:00

FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

0:06:080:06:09

Come with me.

0:06:160:06:17

GEARS GRIND

0:06:340:06:36

GRINDING CONTINUES

0:06:420:06:43

Are you all right, Doug?

0:06:460:06:49

The clutch is going, I can't get it into gear.

0:06:490:06:51

That's all we bloody need.

0:06:510:06:53

Where's the nearest garage?

0:06:530:06:55

-GEARS GRIND

-Not near enough.

0:06:550:06:58

Have you thought, if we do pull this off and he gets to America,

0:07:140:07:17

what the world will think of him?

0:07:170:07:20

Well, you can't tell me the Germans didn't know what they were doing,

0:07:200:07:23

handing him over.

0:07:230:07:24

We've got our work cut out to get there in time for the plane.

0:07:240:07:27

Wait here.

0:07:290:07:30

BANGING ON DOOR

0:07:380:07:43

DOOR OPENS

0:07:570:07:58

-Hello?

-'Sylvia? Is the block warden listening?'

0:08:160:08:19

-Yes.

-'Ignore the bastard.'

0:08:190:08:21

I'm sorry I had to have him get you, but I need your help.

0:08:210:08:24

Well, that would be quite delightful.

0:08:250:08:27

I don't know what is keeping Superintendent Archer.

0:08:460:08:50

But I know he's a friend of yours and I rather hoped he could...

0:08:500:08:55

help us here.

0:08:550:08:56

Exactly why am I being held here?

0:08:590:09:02

That's obvious -

0:09:020:09:03

for your own protection.

0:09:030:09:05

I'd rather be in the protection of the American Embassy.

0:09:080:09:11

The problem is you haven't behaved in accordance with

0:09:160:09:20

our agreement with your government...

0:09:200:09:23

specifically in your contacts with so-called Resistance fighters.

0:09:230:09:30

I am a neutral journalist, following a story.

0:09:330:09:36

My country is not at war with yours.

0:09:380:09:40

I do not believe you are simply a journalist, Miss Barga.

0:09:400:09:44

I think you are also an agent

0:09:440:09:46

who wants to lure America into conflict with the Reich.

0:09:460:09:50

You're worrying about nothing.

0:09:500:09:52

Pick up any American newspaper and you'll see.

0:09:540:09:57

"No War Talk Here" - that's the mantra and, frankly, I'm ashamed.

0:09:570:10:03

Good. I prefer honesty to pretence.

0:10:040:10:08

That doesn't make me a spy.

0:10:090:10:11

No.

0:10:110:10:12

That makes you a challenge.

0:10:140:10:17

Look, I'm telling you, I don't know anything.

0:10:170:10:19

KNOCK ON DOOR

0:10:190:10:20

Well done. Good to see you.

0:11:570:11:59

Glad you're all right, Harry.

0:11:590:12:02

Thanks for bringing the car.

0:12:020:12:04

You can find your own way back?

0:12:040:12:06

I don't understand.

0:12:070:12:09

It's not really safe for you to be with us.

0:12:090:12:11

Or to know about this.

0:12:130:12:15

So it's him, George.

0:12:170:12:20

I thought wrong of you, Doug.

0:12:220:12:24

Your Majesty.

0:12:260:12:27

Sylvia, we've got to get going.

0:12:270:12:29

Well, let me come with you. He needs looking after

0:12:320:12:35

and there's nothing for me here, Doug. You know that.

0:12:350:12:38

Let's not stand around here.

0:12:440:12:46

Come on.

0:12:470:12:49

I don't know what is going on between Herr Doktor Huth

0:13:280:13:31

and Superintendent Archer,

0:13:310:13:33

but I think you may be able to shed some light on it.

0:13:330:13:36

My government doesn't like its citizens being tortured.

0:13:360:13:40

I'm afraid they will never know, my dear.

0:13:400:13:43

But if you answer my questions we won't have to engage one another

0:13:430:13:47

in such...horrors.

0:13:470:13:50

Why did you burn the piece of film at your house?

0:13:530:13:56

What images did it contain?

0:13:580:14:00

I really don't want our friend here to damage such...

0:14:110:14:15

..fragrant skin.

0:14:160:14:19

So, I repeat...

0:14:190:14:22

What was in the images you destroyed?

0:14:220:14:25

Answer me!

0:14:300:14:32

PHONE RINGS

0:14:350:14:39

Ja?

0:14:390:14:40

Kellermann.

0:15:010:15:02

SS. They're checking identity papers.

0:15:080:15:12

We can still turn round.

0:15:120:15:14

No, it's too late.

0:15:140:15:16

You and Sylvia get out and walk.

0:15:310:15:33

Take that corner, I'll meet you further round. I'll distract them.

0:15:330:15:36

That's an order.

0:15:390:15:41

Come on, we can pretend to be lovers.

0:15:430:15:46

Don't get carried away.

0:15:460:15:47

Back in a minute, Georgie.

0:15:500:15:52

Sorry about the "Georgie", sir.

0:15:590:16:01

Come on! Move!

0:16:020:16:05

HE HONKS THE HORN

0:16:050:16:07

What's the matter?

0:16:220:16:24

Thank God. I thought I'd had it.

0:17:340:17:37

We're not out of the building yet.

0:17:370:17:39

Have you heard from Douglas Archer?

0:18:040:18:06

He did ring - just to enquire about you. Since then, nothing.

0:18:060:18:09

But whether he gets the King out or not, the raid is on.

0:18:110:18:14

Things are going to hot up.

0:18:140:18:16

The terms of your release are immediate deportation.

0:18:170:18:20

You're to be kept under armed guard at the Ambassador's Residence

0:18:200:18:23

until you can be escorted straight to the aeroplane and flown

0:18:230:18:26

back to Washington.

0:19:030:19:05

Well, that was a relief.

0:19:190:19:21

Look, sir. It's England.

0:19:270:19:31

Your land.

0:19:310:19:33

It's Hampshire, sir.

0:19:330:19:35

I know a Hampshire song.

0:19:350:19:37

I bet you do.

0:19:370:19:39

-Go on, Harry.

-Really?

-Yeah.

0:19:390:19:42

# Well, once I courted a pretty girl

0:19:440:19:47

# I courted her quite well

0:19:470:19:49

# Her name was Kitty-mariga Maria,

0:19:490:19:52

# And mine was Bobby Wells

0:19:520:19:54

# One night when I was courting her

0:19:540:19:57

# Her father he came home

0:19:570:19:58

# He says if I... #

AIR HISSES

0:20:570:20:59

Two hours to get the King to Bringle and we haven't got a bloody jack!

0:21:130:21:17

We're going to have to stop. We don't have much choice.

0:22:440:22:48

You have a hunt around. There must be a jack somewhere.

0:22:560:22:59

I need your help, I've not done this before.

0:23:120:23:15

Hold that.

0:23:330:23:34

George, I'm going to give you an injection for the pain.

0:23:340:23:38

It will make you feel better.

0:23:380:23:40

Thank you.

0:23:520:23:53

They mustn't see him.

0:24:010:24:02

Hello!

0:24:040:24:06

We hope you don't mind. We didn't want to disturb you.

0:24:060:24:09

We'll be on our way as soon as we've fixed this.

0:24:090:24:12

Where are you heading?

0:24:160:24:18

Visiting friends near Dorchester.

0:24:180:24:21

Pal of ours isn't in the best of health.

0:24:220:24:25

Have you got some water?

0:24:250:24:27

You all want to come in?

0:24:290:24:30

We don't want to be any trouble.

0:24:350:24:38

Come through.

0:24:400:24:42

Thank you.

0:24:420:24:43

Better it should happen now, what with the light fading.

0:24:490:24:52

Yes.

0:24:520:24:54

What's wrong with your friend?

0:24:540:24:55

Just a touch of influenza, it's worse with old age.

0:24:550:24:58

Of course.

0:24:580:25:00

Friends in Dorchester? You come from London?

0:25:000:25:03

Yes, but it's good to get out.

0:25:050:25:07

We've had some real pea soupers recently.

0:25:070:25:09

It's great to breathe again, isn't it?

0:25:090:25:12

I'm David. This is my wife, Margaret.

0:25:120:25:14

I'm Frank.

0:25:160:25:18

Alice.

0:25:180:25:19

-Are you married?

-No.

-No.

0:25:190:25:22

Ah, there you are.

0:25:230:25:24

That's David's brother.

0:25:240:25:26

Give us a hand, will you?

0:25:260:25:28

Get some water from the well.

0:25:330:25:34

Sit yourselves down.

0:25:390:25:41

-Margaret, make some tea.

-Yeah.

0:25:410:25:44

Do you want to see if your friends want some?

0:25:440:25:46

Well, we wouldn't want you to waste your rations on us.

0:25:500:25:52

No problem. "Times like these." "Fellow man" and all that.

0:25:520:25:58

Yes.

0:25:580:26:00

SHE SCREAMS

0:26:250:26:27

GUNSHOT

0:26:440:26:45

GUNSHOT

0:26:480:26:49

I heard the shots. What was all that about?

0:26:590:27:01

They're bloody collaborators.

0:27:010:27:03

I thought their shelves were a little too well stocked.

0:27:030:27:05

Whoever it was was about to alert a German patrol that we're here

0:27:050:27:07

and they'd have arrived before we had time to change that tyre.

0:27:070:27:10

-How long do you need?

-The spare's flat.

-We'll take their car.

0:27:100:27:14

Get ready to move the passenger, we can't stay here.

0:27:140:27:16

Yeah.

0:27:180:27:19

What have you done?!

0:27:240:27:26

Are there any other weapons?

0:27:270:27:28

-I've checked.

-Did you hurt him?

0:27:280:27:31

Handcuff her ankle to his wrist.

0:27:310:27:33

You hand out the food vouchers and the mail from the POW camps, yes?

0:27:370:27:40

Someone has to do it!

0:27:400:27:41

Spying on villagers in return for a comfortable life?

0:27:410:27:44

Where are the car keys?

0:27:440:27:46

Where are the car keys?!

0:27:470:27:49

We have to go, come on.

0:28:000:28:02

You did what you had to, Doug.

0:28:200:28:23

Sir...

0:28:270:28:28

Well, as far as I can tell, we're here.

0:29:130:29:19

The airfield near the atomic research centre.

0:29:190:29:22

Shame nobody else is.

0:29:220:29:24

Burnham?

0:29:400:29:42

Archer?

0:29:430:29:45

Got anywhere warm we can take our guest?

0:29:450:29:48

The best we can offer is brandy and pheasant.

0:29:480:29:51

Any contact from Colonel Mayhew?

0:29:510:29:53

Still waiting. Any moment now, one hopes.

0:29:530:29:56

All right.

0:29:570:29:58

Most of the Auxiliary Units got blotted out in the first two weeks

0:30:350:30:37

after the invasion, so Mayhew ordered the Resistance to hold fire.

0:30:370:30:43

Live to fight another day.

0:30:430:30:46

But the game's all up now,

0:30:460:30:48

or will be.

0:30:480:30:49

All we get are rumours.

0:30:520:30:54

Can you tell us what's going on, sir?

0:30:540:30:56

For men, risking their lives...

0:30:580:31:00

do we have a hope?

0:31:000:31:02

A lot hinges on tonight.

0:31:020:31:05

Everything, I'd say.

0:31:070:31:08

Sir, it's Colonel Mayhew.

0:31:110:31:13

We'll need a stretcher, if you have one.

0:31:130:31:16

Archer here.

0:31:210:31:23

-Do you have Bluejacket?

-Yes.

0:31:230:31:25

Good man.

0:31:250:31:26

We're on the other side of the airfield, by the old control tower.

0:31:260:31:30

Best come as quickly as you can.

0:31:300:31:33

Let's get Bluejacket on his way.

0:31:330:31:34

What about the raid on the atomic research centre?

0:31:340:31:37

It's imminent. We're on schedule.

0:31:370:31:39

All right, let's go.

0:31:390:31:42

Operation's a go.

0:31:420:31:44

Where the hell is the plane?

0:31:490:31:51

Come on, Doug. Can't hang about.

0:31:510:31:54

You've got 20 minutes to get to Bringle, Danny.

0:32:020:32:05

I'll join you as soon as the King is dispatched.

0:32:050:32:07

Here's to merry hell.

0:32:070:32:09

Is everything all right? Have you made contact yet?

0:32:300:32:33

Yes.

0:32:330:32:34

They're on their way.

0:32:340:32:36

Well, there's the old control tower.

0:32:410:32:44

But where's Mayhew and the plane?

0:32:440:32:47

-Get the stretcher, Harry.

-Yeah.

0:32:580:33:00

HE MOANS

0:33:070:33:10

Sylvia?

0:33:210:33:23

Mayhew?

0:33:260:33:27

Mayhew!

0:33:350:33:36

Incoming!

0:33:420:33:43

German attack!

GUNSHOTS AND SHOUTING

0:33:450:33:47

0:33:550:33:57

Go!

0:34:030:34:04

Harry!

0:34:060:34:07

Sylvia, just go!

0:34:120:34:14

Go!

0:35:550:35:59

Get an army officer here and I'll answer.

Ah. You're awake.

0:38:430:38:45

You know, you are the only man here

0:38:510:38:55

who could appreciate this place.

0:38:550:38:57

Actually, I'm not all that up on Georgian architecture.

0:38:590:39:02

Follow me.

0:39:040:39:06

The Georgian part - the facade and one wing - is from 1796.

0:39:090:39:15

Actually, this house is mainly Elizabethan.

0:39:150:39:18

I spent a few happy weekends here when I was up at Oxford.

0:39:180:39:23

And then I looked over the wall as we were passing and here it was.

0:39:230:39:27

Tobias Trotter. A genial fellow, presumably dead now.

0:39:280:39:33

His sister was a beauty,

0:39:330:39:35

raven-haired and...

0:39:350:39:38

a little wild.

0:39:380:39:41

Late one night, she showed me...

0:39:410:39:43

..their priest hole.

0:39:440:39:46

LOCK CLICKS

0:39:460:39:48

Catholics, you see.

0:39:480:39:51

And being good Catholics...

0:39:510:39:54

they put it to good use.

0:39:540:39:56

Let us find something we can drink this out of.

0:39:590:40:02

You know,

0:40:030:40:04

when I saw the old man's body in the car,

0:40:040:40:07

I thought it must be Professor Frick.

0:40:070:40:10

It was only when I saw you lying there that I realised who it was.

0:40:100:40:15

And who was the girl?

0:40:150:40:17

Sylvia.

0:40:190:40:20

I had no idea you were still...

0:40:220:40:24

But then it turns out I am easily deceived.

0:40:250:40:28

Mayhew played me like a fool.

0:40:280:40:31

I didn't know you knew him.

0:40:310:40:33

I had him squirming on the hook within days of arriving here.

0:40:330:40:37

I had a spy in the court of Von Ruff who reported their assignations.

0:40:370:40:42

I know.

0:40:440:40:45

Mayhew is a master.

0:40:520:40:54

He had me believing I had him in the vice.

0:40:560:40:58

Confessed to a plot to fly the top scientists out of Bringle Sands

0:40:580:41:02

to America.

0:41:020:41:05

What made you believe he'd betray his own people?

0:41:050:41:07

That's where he was clever. He said it was doomed to failure anyway,

0:41:070:41:12

so he made a deal where he could hang on to most of

0:41:120:41:15

his family's textile business in the north.

0:41:150:41:18

Selfishness is a motive I fully embrace.

0:41:180:41:21

He lied. And I was duped.

0:41:210:41:24

So you came down here to prevent the escape of the scientists.

0:41:240:41:28

Be the hero of the hour.

0:41:280:41:30

And all along, Mayhew just wanted me to cause a distraction

0:41:310:41:34

while the real attack was launched.

0:41:340:41:36

I didn't see that coming.

0:41:360:41:39

Americans?

0:41:400:41:42

If anyone can make this bomb work, it's them.

0:41:460:41:49

Especially now with the research from Bringle.

0:41:490:41:52

It was Mayhew who killed Spode.

0:42:030:42:06

It was him who burned the papers.

0:42:070:42:10

He just didn't want the Americans to get the calculations too easily.

0:42:120:42:15

He wanted them to fight for it.

0:42:170:42:20

And to destroy any of the work that was completed at Bringle Sands.

0:42:200:42:24

Yes, of course.

0:42:260:42:28

Although perhaps he misjudged how important Spode's calculations were.

0:42:290:42:34

Their absence will cost the Americans time.

0:42:340:42:38

Standartenfuhrer.

0:42:390:42:41

It didn't take Kellermann long to seize his moment.

0:43:550:43:58

RADIO CHATTER IN GERMAN

0:44:150:44:18

Firing squads everywhere.

0:44:180:44:20

13 men shot in Swanage.

0:44:230:44:26

27 in East Lulworth.

0:44:300:44:33

They're punishing villages for harbouring Resistance,

0:44:390:44:42

whether they have or not.

0:44:420:44:45

I wonder if the price is worth paying in Mayhew's book.

0:44:450:44:49

Any news on him?

0:44:490:44:51

But Kellermann is close.

0:44:570:45:00

What do you expect me to do? Run?

0:45:000:45:04

I'm a lost cause.

0:45:060:45:08

Kellermann will use me as a scapegoat, twist things against me.

0:45:090:45:14

Can you believe he has already implied

0:45:140:45:17

I was involved in the Karl Marx bomb?

0:45:170:45:19

He'll keep his job and get rid of me.

0:45:220:45:25

We were all playing for high stakes.

0:45:280:45:31

But you, you still have a chance.

0:45:310:45:35

Arrest me, Archer, for when Kellermann arrives.

0:45:380:45:42

I'll wager he has no proof you helped the King escape.

0:45:460:45:50

You can be a hero, too. Do it.

0:45:500:45:54

You have a son to live for.

0:45:540:45:57

All I have is a father I hate.

0:45:570:45:59

The pig has won.

0:46:040:46:06

So have the army.

0:46:080:46:10

They can use the attack as a pretext

0:46:100:46:12

for martial law across the entire occupied region now.

0:46:120:46:16

But the real winner is Mayhew.

0:46:160:46:18

He got the Americans fighting.

0:46:180:46:21

They've tasted blood, and mark my words,

0:46:210:46:25

they will build this bomb and the Reich will be finished.

0:46:250:46:29

Mayhew's only false step was allowing the King

0:46:320:46:35

to get caught up in it.

0:46:350:46:36

That wasn't an accident.

0:46:380:46:40

The King was never meant to escape.

0:46:400:46:42

He was infirm.

0:46:450:46:47

He would have cut a pathetic figure in Washington or anywhere else.

0:46:500:46:56

Britain would have looked washed up.

0:46:560:46:58

Instead he dies a hero, in the same operation as brave Americans.

0:46:590:47:04

I bet in the next few days,

0:47:080:47:11

the Queen and the Princesses will be on a ship from New Zealand

0:47:110:47:15

for Washington to represent us.

0:47:150:47:18

That's the way Mayhew works.

0:47:200:47:23

The long game.

0:47:230:47:25

Hmm.

0:47:260:47:28

Well then, with men like that,

0:47:280:47:31

how did you ever lose the war?

0:47:310:47:34

Perhaps we didn't.

0:47:340:47:36

Just the battle.

0:47:390:47:41

Does your son want to be a policeman?

0:47:500:47:53

Yes.

0:47:560:47:57

Yes, he does.

0:47:580:48:00

But on a motorcycle.

0:48:020:48:04

You are lucky, Archer.

0:48:090:48:11

Keep him out of this... lousy business.

0:48:130:48:17

Your last chance, Douglas.

0:48:270:48:31

Think of him.

0:48:330:48:35

Priest hole.

0:48:410:48:43

That fool Kellermann wouldn't even know what one was.

0:48:480:48:51

HE COUGHS

0:50:580:50:59

SOLDIER SHOUTS ORDERS IN GERMAN

0:53:190:53:22

GUNFIRE

0:53:240:53:26

He's come round.

0:53:450:53:47

Where am I?

0:53:580:54:00

Sorry, old pal.

0:54:020:54:04

You had a nasty little bullet down there that we took a dislike to.

0:54:040:54:07

How did I get here?

0:54:110:54:13

You're the only survivor we found.

0:54:190:54:22

It was a bloodbath.

0:54:260:54:28

What about Douglas Archer?

0:54:310:54:33

No sign of him.

0:54:330:54:35

Now, you rest.

0:54:380:54:40

39 men unaccounted for.

0:54:510:54:55

64 walking wounded,

0:54:550:54:57

8 serious casualties.

0:54:570:54:59

They're still compiling the list of Bringle personnel

0:54:590:55:02

they now have on the ship with them.

0:55:020:55:04

Reporting the facility as totally destroyed.

0:55:060:55:09

Yes! Good. What about the data?

0:55:090:55:12

Incomplete.

0:55:140:55:15

Your flight's soon. I don't think you'll be welcomed back in...

0:55:180:55:21

Miss Barga?

0:55:230:55:24

Miss Barga! What are you doing?
