0:00:02 > 0:00:03In a secret location,
0:00:03 > 0:00:06the investigation into wolfbloods is in full swing.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08The Vikings were actually wolfbloods.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13The secret was a human invention.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16Now I'm starting to see exactly where you're coming from.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18What you want.
0:00:18 > 0:00:19History repeating.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30I don't know how many ways I can say it. There is no wolfblood uprising.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33No revolution, it's not an army, OK?
0:00:33 > 0:00:36It's just ordinary people that can turn into wolves occasionally.
0:00:36 > 0:00:37And I'm not their leader.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40- So, who is?- No-one is! This is ridiculous!
0:00:40 > 0:00:42You are not locking me up. I'll go back to the wild.
0:00:42 > 0:00:43You'll never find me there.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Well, we know how to find all the other wolfbloods, thanks to you.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48So, you're going to pick a fight with every wolfblood?
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Well, we don't need to fight them.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Do we?
0:00:53 > 0:00:57- You spoke to Tim Jeffries? - I gather you and he are old friends.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- They're worried about you. - There's really no need.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05- Yeah. And I'm Harry Styles.- What!
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Becca! Please. Behave!
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Well, I've known him a long time, yes.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15Oh, it's just that other testimony we received suggests...
0:01:15 > 0:01:17- Do you fancy Dr Whitewood, sir?- What?
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Go on, sir, I reckon you've got a chance.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Cos she likes old fossils.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22THEY LAUGH
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Jeffries and Whitewood, sitting in a tree...
0:01:25 > 0:01:28K-I-S-I-N-G! Ha!
0:01:28 > 0:01:30That's not how you spell it, Katrina.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34What testimony? What's that got to do with anything, anyway?
0:01:34 > 0:01:37- I thought I was here as part of a consultation process?- You are.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38One that goes to the highest levels.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42We just like to know who's in the wolfblood club.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46We were wondering if you have conflicts of interest.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Mr Jeffries' book certainly seems to indicate that.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Oh, well, it must be true, then, mustn't it?
0:01:52 > 0:01:54I just couldn't stop laughing.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57The tall, handsome schoolteacher took the beautiful scientist
0:01:57 > 0:02:00in his arms and said, "There's a wolf inside me, too."
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Anything sounds silly out of context, Becca.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Well, I'm just telling you as a friend.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09It's not just the dialogue, it's everything.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13It's full of cliches and mixed metaphors and TERRIBLE puns.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Plus, it's meant to be a young adult novel and the hero's
0:02:16 > 0:02:17a 30-something school teacher.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19- 20-something! - STUDENTS YELL
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Am I here for my scientific expertise or
0:02:22 > 0:02:24a Tim Jeffries convention?
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Sorry, Dr Whitewood.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30We recognise that you are the foremost researcher
0:02:30 > 0:02:32in the wolfblood field.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35And it would help our inquiry enormously...
0:02:36 > 0:02:39..if you could share your insights.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Where to begin?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47They're faster, fitter than us.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49EXCITING MUSIC PLAYS
0:03:14 > 0:03:16So acutely attuned to their surroundings.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23SHE SNIFFS
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Their hearing is extraordinary.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37...Hyperglycaemia.
0:03:37 > 0:03:42Yes. Apparently symptoms include reckless and aggressive behaviour.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43You've got a fan club.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49- He's just scrummy. - He likes me.- He does not.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52If that doesn't scare you off, nothing will.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55And they're agile, too.
0:03:55 > 0:03:56Go on.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Oh, no, window!
0:04:04 > 0:04:07Capable of almost impossible feats.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Did you miss me?
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Some of that is anecdotal, of course.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Actual data collection is still in its infancy,
0:04:41 > 0:04:44but even so, the potential for medical applications...
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Actually, we have a lot on their abilities already.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Where we thought you might be able to fill in some of the blanks is
0:04:51 > 0:04:53in terms of their weaknesses.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Why would you want to know that?
0:04:58 > 0:05:00What's the purpose of this consultation?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02The purpose as far as you're concerned is holding on to
0:05:02 > 0:05:03your research licence.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08We've seen some of your Segolia papers, where you suggest that
0:05:08 > 0:05:11their natural advantages are balanced out by disadvantages.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Do you remember two years back?
0:05:21 > 0:05:23When Bayle's Comet passed by?
0:05:23 > 0:05:27I think that was mentioned in another statement.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28There's something coming.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Yeah, it's the comet.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Something bad is going to happen tonight.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39A clear sky.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Dark moon.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44A night I'll never forget.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Beautiful, aren't they?
0:05:53 > 0:05:56The earth must be passing through the comet's tail.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Tiny particles of debris burn up in our atmosphere.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04SHE LAUGHS
0:06:05 > 0:06:07HE LAUGHS
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Whoa! Whoa!
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Are you two OK?
0:06:27 > 0:06:28Everybody, stand back.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Go back, please. Go back, please.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37The wolfbloods were passing out. Only the wolfbloods?
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Ceri?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Hello?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Ceri! Ceri.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Ceri?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49PHONE RINGS
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Ceri's out, too. She's written something on the floor, though.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54What?
0:06:54 > 0:06:56"Icefire"?
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Icefire?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01That's like a comet. The nucleus.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I soon realised what was happening had to be connected to the comet.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- How serious is it, sir? What's going on?- OK, back to work, please.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- Come on, back to work.- I want to have a word with Sarah!
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Comets pass over earth all the time.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14But Bayle's Comet would very rarely coincide with a dark moon.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18- So, it's somehow magnifying it's effect.- But how?
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Shannon, we need your help.
0:07:21 > 0:07:22They're still out?
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Yeah. Because there's actually something wrong with them.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Oh, there is something wrong, actually.
0:07:27 > 0:07:28TV's fuzzy.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33Which obviously isn't as important as what's going on in here.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Yeah, it's only a bit of interference.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- That's it.- Interference?
0:07:41 > 0:07:45It was only...my quick thinking that saved them.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Otherwise, they could have been in a coma forever.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52One male, one female. Witness collapse, query cause.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Clear airways, strong radial pulse. - OK.
0:07:56 > 0:07:57Hypothesis.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00The media shower is interfering with whatever links wolfbloods to
0:08:00 > 0:08:02the moon.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04And as there's no moon, wolfbloods are particularly susceptible.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- Because the link is already at its weakest.- I'm taking these in.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- We'll get the stretchers. - I'll find Katrina.
0:08:09 > 0:08:10Right, we've got one about one minute.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Any interference would have a particular frequency.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14But there's a different frequency on every channel.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16What were they watching?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18If you can find out I might be able to cancel it out.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25Tom, turn on the TV. Find Made In Eccles. Now.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29Yeah, But Shan, then I'll end up in a coma.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32There's no time for jokes, Tom, I need that frequency.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35See if there's an information button or a service menu.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38OK, OK. It is...650.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42- That's 650 megahertz. - Thanks, Tom.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44MACHINE HUMS
0:08:51 > 0:08:53We're running out of time!
0:08:53 > 0:08:55On three. One, two, three.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00Let's take Jacob Avenue. There's still roadworks on...
0:09:00 > 0:09:03MACHINE HUMS AT HIGHER FREQUENCY
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Right, we're there. 650.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Why isn't it working?
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Wait!
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Oh, come on, come on, come on.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Negative.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- MACHINE'S FREQUENCY FALLS - Minus 650.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35MACHINE BEEPS
0:09:37 > 0:09:38I'm sorry.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41I'm so sorry.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45For what?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Just everything.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51You're awake.
0:09:53 > 0:09:54He's awake!
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Who's awake?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Don't worry. Are you all right?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Yeah.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05For all their strength, they're more vulnerable than you might think.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10- They're vulnerable to comets? - It wasn't just about the comet.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Wolfbloods are attuned to the passage of the moon.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- So that, once a month... - We know what they do once a month.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20- That's what all this is about. - I'm not talking about transforming.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Quite the opposite.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27Once a month, on a dark moon, they lose their powers.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Could you elaborate on that?
0:10:33 > 0:10:37Well, again, it will be anecdotal evidence, but, yes,
0:10:37 > 0:10:38every dark moon...
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- Jana!- Mm.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Are you getting up today, or not?- I'm not feeling well.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Really? It's funny that.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- Gosh. You look terrible.- Thanks.
0:10:58 > 0:10:59I feel worse.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03They become lethargic. Low energy.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Oh, so you've decided to join me for the lunchtime shift.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Sorry, I'm here now.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13SHE COUGHS
0:11:16 > 0:11:19- Oh, come on!- It was an accident.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Look, if this is your way of getting back at
0:11:21 > 0:11:24me for the new tips rule, then it's not going to work.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28- What?- You're just doing this out of spite.- No, I'm not.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- I'm not feeling very well. - You know what?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- I don't think we'll be needing you today.- Katrina, look...
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- I can manage on my own, thank you!- Fine!
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- How long does it last? - Just the one day.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42But for that 24 hours, they're good for nothing.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Many of them have told me that.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46ALARM SOUNDS
0:11:49 > 0:11:51ALARM CONTINUES
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Oh, what?
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Mam, Dad. Mam!
0:12:04 > 0:12:08- Oh, what?- Can I have the day off school?- No!- Why not?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Because one day, some bright spark's going to realise that once
0:12:11 > 0:12:13a month, when there's no moon,
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Maddie Smith bunks off school and they're going to want to know why.
0:12:16 > 0:12:21- But I'm bleeding!- Put a plaster on it.- This is so unfair!- So is life.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23- Are you getting up?- No.

0:12:34 > 0:12:35Thanks a bunch(!)
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- DOOR SLAMS - Ohhh.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Sorry, who exactly will this information be available to?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45You said, "Medical care for wolfbloods," but then why
0:12:45 > 0:12:46would you speak to Tim?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48You've been very helpful.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- Yes, but who have I helped? - Humanity, Doctor.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55See, that's my vulnerability.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58I think I was born on the wrong side of the fence.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Like I said, we don't need to fight them.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06You disappear, and we'll go through every pack,
0:13:06 > 0:13:10- every wolfblood family till we find you. You want that?- Look, Jana.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Most of my colleagues are convinced that you are a security risk.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17If you can say anything to convince me otherwise, then say it.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20But I never hurt any human.
0:13:20 > 0:13:21All right.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25Then you can tell us the present whereabouts of Alexander Kincaid...
