0:00:02 > 0:00:03It's not written down, of course.
0:00:03 > 0:00:06- It's in here.- And that is what I'm going to unlock.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09I don't know who you are, but you have influence.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11So she scares you too, does she?
0:00:11 > 0:00:14I will have something for you in the next 24 hours
0:00:14 > 0:00:17that would mean us working together.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20I know you understand the cost of ministerial incompetence
0:00:20 > 0:00:25and official deceit, but I know some things very few other people do -
0:00:25 > 0:00:27how we could have won the war before it had even started.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30I'm so envious of you being in that hotel, Cal.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33What I really want to do is come and be there too.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36You've done nothing but lie to me ever since I met you.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38My daughter has gone! Lotte has vanished!
0:00:38 > 0:00:41They say this madman was in the hotel and he has taken my daughter!
0:00:41 > 0:00:42That man was your brother!
0:00:42 > 0:00:44I will get her back.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56INDISTINCT CONVERSATION
0:00:57 > 0:00:59- MAN:- Do you know what's going on?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03- WOMAN:- What's happened?
0:01:07 > 0:01:08- MAN:- What's going on?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Excuse me!
0:01:24 > 0:01:26I must tell you what I know.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Just a moment.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32I was reading a story and she disappeared.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34She just vanished.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35That is what happened.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39Please! I must tell you what I know.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44I was reading her a story and she just vanished...
0:01:50 > 0:01:53INDISTINCT CONVERSATION
0:01:58 > 0:02:00We'll do better on our own. Come.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04So what happened with the little man?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I mean, what was he doing with Lotte?
0:02:06 > 0:02:08He was telling her a story.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11I was right in the room next door, I could hear him reading to her,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13- his voice... - No, that's not all he was doing.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Oh, Christ!
0:02:16 > 0:02:17What?
0:02:18 > 0:02:20We don't want them having anything to do with this.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Why did somebody call them?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Because they think you're important, that's why.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31What's that? What's that?
0:02:35 > 0:02:36Come on, come on, come on!
0:02:36 > 0:02:40You should think where your brother might be, where he likes to visit,
0:02:40 > 0:02:42what are his favourite places in the city...
0:02:42 > 0:02:44There's a lot of those. He likes to roam around a lot.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46What does he do when he roams?
0:02:46 > 0:02:48He collects things. He picks things up,
0:02:48 > 0:02:49off the pavement, off bombsites,
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- anything that catches his eye. - His room, what's he got in his room?
0:02:52 > 0:02:54- Should we go there?- No, the police have been there already.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56- There is no trace of him.- No, no!
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Of course, but maybe, if we look at what he's collected,
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- that might tell us something. - There's a lot of stained glass.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Then we need a church. Does he have a favourite church?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07TRAIN WHISTLE
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Has anyone seen a man with a young girl?
0:03:13 > 0:03:17With a child? Does anyone here know Victor?
0:03:17 > 0:03:18I know Victor.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21He is often here.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Sometimes, he sleeps here.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Not seen him tonight, though.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26So, this is one of his churches.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Then we have to do every church we can!
0:03:34 > 0:03:36So, Lotte,
0:03:36 > 0:03:40if we manage this right, we really will reach the countryside.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44LAUGHTER
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Hello, gentlemen. I need some petrol coupons
0:03:49 > 0:03:51and will pay handsomely for them.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53So who's going to be the lucky one, then?
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Women aren't allowed in here, love!
0:03:55 > 0:03:57It's not a good idea to go out dressed like that, love!
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Our house just collapsed.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01The whole ceiling came down.
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Bang! Just like that.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04So, we must be on our travels.
0:04:04 > 0:04:05Who's going to help us?
0:04:05 > 0:04:09- Any news? Any news at all? - No, no, not yet.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11- Where have you been, sir? - We've been in church.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12Just get them out of the hotel!
0:04:12 > 0:04:14- Just get rid of them! - I don't know how to do that.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16OK, well, keep them away from me, at least.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Oh, what are they doing here?
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Nothing. No.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25We came to see if we could help. Of course we can't help.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I mean, you will have thought of absolutely everything.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- But we wanted to be here. - You really didn't need to do that.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Well, the party was well and truly over. We had to come.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40This is more like it, isn't it, Lotte?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Countryside, bit of clean air.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45It's so beautiful.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49It's like the Blitz all over again.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Everybody's staying close in case they're needed.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Sorry it took so long, sir.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03They will find your daughter, sir, I'm sure.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Thank you.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07He's doing everything he can.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15No, thank you. Now it's light, we stand a much better chance.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18I managed to get it on the radio, on the first bulletins.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22My brother stand out a mile wherever he goes.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24And with a little girl in tow...
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Why is everybody so worried about your brother?
0:05:29 > 0:05:30Well, that's simple.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34They think he's mad.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44OK. Here we are, Lotte, so get on the back seat and just lie down,
0:05:44 > 0:05:47as if you were asleep. Don't say anything.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52SWING MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Fill her up, please. As much as I can get for these.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07You know, you shouldn't be smoking while you're doing that.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Are you telling me what to do, are you?
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Get your daughter out the car if you don't like it.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16I've only been doing this six weeks.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Do you think this, this is what I want to do with the rest of my life?
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Leave somewhere suddenly, did you?
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Sir! There's been a sighting of them, sir,
0:06:30 > 0:06:31at a petrol station in Sussex.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- They've seen them?- Yes.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36There's an army base very close by. They are sending out a patrol now.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38No, no, no! That is not the right move at all!
0:06:38 > 0:06:40They must use the local police, all right?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Get me the commanding officer on the phone now!
0:06:42 > 0:06:44If they go in, they're going to start shooting.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Is there anyone following us, Lotte?
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Let's go.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Come on!
0:07:19 > 0:07:22OK, Lotte, you are not safe with me, OK?
0:07:22 > 0:07:26You've got to go. Get over that way, OK, as far as you can.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Go, quick, quick! Keep going. SOLDIERS SHOUT
0:07:28 > 0:07:29Go, go!
0:07:29 > 0:07:34We know you are here. Stand up with your arms up and walk towards us.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42OK?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Here I am. A nice target.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Why don't you have a go? I don't think you can really miss, can you?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Lotte!
0:08:13 > 0:08:14HE SPEAKS GERMAN
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Get out of the car. Get out of the car, now!
0:08:20 > 0:08:21What the hell were you thinking?!
0:08:21 > 0:08:25- What on earth possessed you to do that?- Don't yell at me.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27They are going to lock you up now and I'm not going to be able to do
0:08:27 > 0:08:31a single thing about it. That's a brilliant result, isn't it, Victor?
0:08:34 > 0:08:37You might find this surprising, but if they don't lock him up,
0:08:37 > 0:08:40I may be able to help you with your brother.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Well, they will lock him up.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57You've been very lucky, Ferguson, amazingly lucky.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Lucky? I've been lucky?
0:09:03 > 0:09:05The German is very grateful to you
0:09:05 > 0:09:08for the way you behaved over his daughter.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09That's why you've been lucky.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11We're finally making progress.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13I want you to stay with him now until he delivers.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Until he delivers? That could be months.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Supersonic speed is the only thing that matters at the moment.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Breaking the sound barrier. Boom!
0:09:20 > 0:09:22We have to do that before the Americans,
0:09:22 > 0:09:23or the Russians, of course.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- Your German...- My German?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Yes, your German can really help us do that, can't he?
0:09:28 > 0:09:29He trusts you now.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31We need you to build on this new friendship
0:09:31 > 0:09:33until he's done it for us.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35That's all you have to do.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Most people would kill for such a job.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38I'm not going to do it.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Oh, yes, you are.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- Shall I tell you why? - VICTOR RANTS OUTSIDE
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Because your brother has committed a series of criminal offences -
0:09:46 > 0:09:48abducting a child, stealing a car.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51He will go to prison unless I stop it happening.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53So you're blackmailing me?
0:09:53 > 0:09:56What are you going to do with your life now if you refuse?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58This way, you've got the run of a hotel,
0:09:58 > 0:10:01lots of free time to do what you want, work out your future.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03You are doubly, maybe trebly, lucky.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Well, I'm certainly not if I have got MI5 or MI19
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- or any other bloody outfit on my back.- That's over.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12That's all stopped. If you do this, Ferguson,
0:10:12 > 0:10:14we'll get your brother good treatment in a hospital.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Absolutely not!
0:10:16 > 0:10:20No, I'm not having him locked up in one of your asylums.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22I will take care of my brother.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24So, what have you arranged with them, then?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27They're going to strap me down, are they, put wires all over my head,
0:10:27 > 0:10:28give me electric shocks?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Come with me.- Mind you,
0:10:30 > 0:10:33you probably get incredible dreams when they fry you like that.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37Come with me. I just need to have a word with my brother in private.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40LAMBS BLEAT What a beautiful place.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43The army won't want to give any of these houses back, will they?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45I wonder where all the aristos have moved to.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47They'll pop up again soon, I expect.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Victor, you're not going to prison, all right?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51They're not going to press charges.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Why not? Are they going to lock me away in hospital?
0:10:53 > 0:10:55No, you are to go back to Mrs Tooley.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57You did a deal, didn't you?
0:10:57 > 0:10:59They want you to go on working with the German.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Well, why not? You've always loved that, haven't you?
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Flight and speed, building the fastest plane in the world.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Why shouldn't you do it? - There is one condition, though,
0:11:08 > 0:11:11and that's that you don't go anywhere near the little girl
0:11:11 > 0:11:13- or back to the hotel again. - No!- If you do,
0:11:13 > 0:11:15you will be locked up, Victor!
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Do you promise you won't try and see Lotte or go back to the hotel?
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I didn't abduct her and you know that.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21She was running away from a horrible man.
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Do you promise?
0:11:24 > 0:11:28- Of course. - Well, you'd better bloody mean it!
0:11:28 > 0:11:29I still have to live, don't I?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32And I was really hoping to just get a job at the hotel,
0:11:32 > 0:11:35just being a porter or something. Nobody else will give me a job.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Well, it is possible I may be able to do something about that.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46So, they've got a whole floor up there, have they?
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Yes, with a lot of files, it looks like.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53And they absolutely deny it exists.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Official priorities have become even clearer, apparently.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57They are now going to get hold of every German
0:11:57 > 0:11:59who might be useful to them before it's too late,
0:11:59 > 0:12:01and it doesn't matter what they've done.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04But surely that can change, something can change that.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20There you are, the two brothers.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23We haven't been formally introduced, Victor.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25My name's Harold Lindsay-Jones.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26- So pleased to meet you.- Are you?
0:12:26 > 0:12:30Well, seen up close, Victor, you don't look mad to me,
0:12:30 > 0:12:32not mad at all. Please, be seated.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37So, Mr Lindsay-Jones...
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- Harold, please.- Harold.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42You were saying you might have some things for Victor to do.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Some odd jobs around the house.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46I'm not terrific at cleaning.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48I thought I'd better make that clear right away.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Cleaning is not what I had in mind, no.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54This library was a passion, both for my wife and myself.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56We love books.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Since she died, it hasn't been quite the same.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01What do you notice, Victor, about this library?
0:13:01 > 0:13:03- What do you see?- What do I see?
0:13:06 > 0:13:07The books are not in the right order.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10They're in no order at all, in fact.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Neither alphabetically, by author or by title.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Or by subject.- Exactly.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18You've spotted it at once.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21During the Blitz, I had all the books removed at great expense
0:13:21 > 0:13:23to the country. When they returned,
0:13:23 > 0:13:25the removal men put them back in any order.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27I didn't have the heart to do anything about it.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29I will pay you, Victor,
0:13:29 > 0:13:32to arrange the books alphabetically by author
0:13:32 > 0:13:35and when you've done that, to arrange this overflow
0:13:35 > 0:13:39on some new shelves in the room next door. Can you do that?
0:13:39 > 0:13:40I can do that, yes.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42That's terrific.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45By the way, I'm not just doing this out of the kindness of my heart,
0:13:45 > 0:13:47as I'm sure you will have guessed.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51There is something that I may need your brother's help with
0:13:51 > 0:13:53in due course.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Something that interests me intensely.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58So, until Monday morning.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Ah, this is Lucy , my ward.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02This is Victor Ferguson.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04- Hello, Victor.- Lucy's about to go back to Oxford.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05So I won't see much of you, Victor.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Ah. Well, then, you won't have to worry
0:14:07 > 0:14:09about me being alone in the house with her.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11- Victor!- I wasn't worried about that, no.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Quite right. In fact, despite appearances to the contrary,
0:14:14 > 0:14:16it's my brother you really have to worry about...
0:14:16 > 0:14:18I'm going to get him out of here before you withdraw your offer.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21- My brother needs looking after, too. You ought to believe me.- Come on.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31KNOCK AT DOOR
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- Come in.- Ah, I don't want to disturb you,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36especially in the middle of a chess lesson.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38I just came to say that we are off in the morning.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Show you your new office.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Good. I'll be very interested to see what they've given to me.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44And you're coming too, Lotte.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57I've been looking for you.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59We need to have a word.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01No, no, please! HE GASPS
0:15:08 > 0:15:10What were you doing to that little girl?
0:15:10 > 0:15:13I was just reading her a story.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14That is all it was.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16HE GRUNTS
0:15:18 > 0:15:21What were you doing to that little girl?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Nothing! Nothing!
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Please, please, I can tell you something if you stop.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Something that will interest you about room 602.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35- Tell me some other time. - Captain Ferguson?
0:15:36 > 0:15:38- Captain Ferguson? - You're going to pack your bags.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- You're going to book yourself out of the hotel tonight. - Captain Ferguson?
0:15:41 > 0:15:43And you're never, ever going to come back.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55Mr Lombard is waiting for you in the conservatory bar, sir.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57He sad you had an appointment.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59SLOW-PACED PIANO MUSIC PLAYS
0:16:08 > 0:16:10There you are. At last.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I've had to listen to this bloody music for at least half an hour.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16- Are you all right?- Yes, I'm fine.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19- I just had a little matter to attend to.- Ooh!
0:16:19 > 0:16:21I hear you really are running the hotel now.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23THEY CHUCKLE
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Ah, he's gon' be here a little while,
0:16:25 > 0:16:28so maybe we will get to hear him play the piano.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29He'll be up there next week.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33So, you're staying here for a bit?
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Seems that way, yes.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Looking after my German.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42You know, I can't really work out our friend, Mr Ferguson.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45Never gives me a straight answer.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Oh, he doing something very hush-hush, obviously.
0:16:48 > 0:16:52Keeping us all in this hotel is part of it.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55I don't know what the hell it is, though, what he up to.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59You know, I envy you.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01You envy me, Alex?
0:17:01 > 0:17:02Well, that's a mistake, I promise.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04I'm going to be unemployed quite soon.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08Yes, but for now, you control how you spend your day.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10I have to work so hard at the moment at the Foreign Office.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14So bloody competitive, and the hours are unbelievably long.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16And I feel I have to stay later than anybody else
0:17:16 > 0:17:18because I had such a cushy time during the war in Washington.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21I have to be seen to be working the hardest.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24I need to ask you a favour, Callum.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26A favour? Of course.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Will you have lunch with Rachel?
0:17:28 > 0:17:31You know all about music and everything
0:17:31 > 0:17:33and I know nothing about the arts,
0:17:33 > 0:17:34and I'm totally tone deaf
0:17:34 > 0:17:36and she needs to talk to someone about her ideas.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39Will you do it?

0:18:10 > 0:18:12Right.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15I'm going to show you your rather pokey little office now, Dieter.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27This is all yours, Dieter.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Looks big enough, do you think?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36This may just be big enough, yes.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Naturally, you have a Spitfire here.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45Of course. And that is to inspire you.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48This place used to be full of hundreds of people during the war.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50And now there's only me.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57And this is Rita. She's going to be working with you.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01I'm very glad to hear this.
0:19:01 > 0:19:02I'm Dieter Koehler.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Rita and I used to work together before the war.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07She knows a lot about jet engines.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11Not as much as you, of course, but I know something.
0:19:11 > 0:19:16You see, Lotte, Rita and I used to work for this wonderful man
0:19:16 > 0:19:18who invented the jet engine,
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Mr Frank Whittle.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23We Germans might dispute that, that you were the first.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26And then our government refused to give him the money that he needed
0:19:26 > 0:19:29to develop his invention, so we lost our lead.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33And now your dad is going to help us get it back again...
0:19:35 > 0:19:37..by breaking the sound barrier.

0:19:40 > 0:19:41Supersonic fast.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59So, do I get my own car now so I can drive myself here every day?
0:19:59 > 0:20:00You don't get that yet, no.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04You might drive somewhere we don't want you to.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19Ah. Thank you for finding that.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23There may be various little documents from the Foreign Office
0:20:23 > 0:20:27that I should have given back. Some even marked "Secret",
0:20:27 > 0:20:29like this one. So, Victor...
0:20:31 > 0:20:33- ..you've begun, I see.- Yes, I have.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35My progress will vary, though.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38How quick I am will depend on how often the books interrupt me.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39I see.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54I'm late, I know, and I'm so sorry.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Don't worry, I was expecting it.
0:20:56 > 0:20:57I know you're always late.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59I'm not always late.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01You forget, I'm still in the army.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Sort of.- So you mean you're only late for me.
0:21:05 > 0:21:06I quite understand.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08I took the liberty, I hope you don't mind -
0:21:08 > 0:21:10I've ordered us some ice cream.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- Some ice cream?- Mm-hm. - Well, that's bold of you.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- Because last time... - It was disgusting, yes,
0:21:15 > 0:21:16but today I have a plan.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19You asked for these tall glasses, ma'am, is that right?
0:21:19 > 0:21:21- I did.- It's just they're rather large for ice cream.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Oh, no, it's perfect. Thank you.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25It's really good of you to see me, Cal.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Oh, don't be silly. I was happy to.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Alex said you wanted to talk to me about some of your ideas.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36- Mm-hm.- About getting involved in music and theatre?
0:21:36 > 0:21:38You know, on the...funding.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40I'm sorry, I can't help wondering
0:21:40 > 0:21:42- what you're going to be doing with that.- I have come prepared.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45This ice cream was a challenge that I was determined to take on.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48Last berries of summer.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Cooking in public. Hmm!
0:21:51 > 0:21:55It's obscene, isn't it? Probably breaking all the rules.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- Do you want some?- Absolutely.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02This... This is my masterstroke.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06HE CHUCKLES
0:22:06 > 0:22:07A dash of alcohol.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Will we get thrown out, do you think?
0:22:13 > 0:22:16No, no, they'll be queueing up at our table in a minute.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Well, one has to make one's own excitement, doesn't one?
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Even out of ice cream.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23What does it taste like?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Now, that is rather wonderful.
0:22:27 > 0:22:28Mm!
0:22:28 > 0:22:30It's pretty good.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33So, Cal...
0:22:34 > 0:22:35..here we go.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38- My husband...- Alex?
0:22:38 > 0:22:40No, my last husband.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Sorry, I meant to say my late husband.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44It's a brilliant start. Sorry.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48No, my late husband, he, uh...
0:22:48 > 0:22:50he was much older than me and he died very suddenly.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53He left me rather a lot of money.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55He adored the arts and he taught me a great deal
0:22:55 > 0:22:57about how to appreciate them.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01He introduced me to all sorts of things in a really wonderful way.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05And now I'm here and, uh,
0:23:05 > 0:23:07well, I thought that you could be my guide.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10A starting point for me about how to go about all this.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Because I don't want to be this wealthy American blundering about
0:23:14 > 0:23:17offering people money that they might not even want.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20They might run a mile, thinking that I want to interfere.
0:23:20 > 0:23:21That again.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24You know, you're always so worried about how things might seem.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25You know, what people might think.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Well, that's not so foolish.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29I want to get this right.
0:23:29 > 0:23:30And, anyway, that's not true.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33I've just done some very public cooking, haven't I?
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Well, there is one problem.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38I don't know anybody in the arts.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Yes, but I can discuss things with you, can't I?
0:23:41 > 0:23:42As Alex suggested.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46Rehearse my plans, who it might be a good idea to approach.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48And you have the time, haven't you, Callum?
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Yes, I might have.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54There's my German to look after and our secret office.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57No, no, no, don't tell me.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59You've got to keep your secrets.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01I don't want you being thrown out of the hotel.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03PHONE RINGS
0:24:08 > 0:24:10Yes?
0:24:10 > 0:24:11Hello, this is Kathy Griffiths.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Can I speak to Captain Ferguson, please?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15- Ah, Miss Griffiths! - You remember me, do you?
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Of course we remember you, Miss Griffiths.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Glad to hear it. Can you put me through to Captain Ferguson?
0:24:20 > 0:24:22You want to speak to Captain Ferguson?
0:24:22 > 0:24:24I'm afraid he's not here at the moment.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27He's not? May I ask where you are?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29I'm in his office.
0:24:29 > 0:24:33Ah, that very small office I was shown.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Can you tell him I need to meet him, and maybe he can give me a time?
0:24:37 > 0:24:38Yes, I will pass on that message.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Tell him I have something to give him.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44There's no getting rid of her, is there?
0:24:44 > 0:24:46CHILDREN WHOOP
0:24:53 > 0:24:55HE SPEAKS GERMAN
0:25:04 > 0:25:06THEY GIGGLE AND WHOOP
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Wheee!
0:25:11 > 0:25:12HE GRUNTS
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Careful, children. You do not run in the passage.
0:25:16 > 0:25:17Never run in the passage.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Are you all English?
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Moechtest du eine Schokolade?
0:25:31 > 0:25:33What did he say?
0:25:39 > 0:25:43- Yes?- Do you have any chocolate, please, sir?
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Do I have some chocolate?
0:25:45 > 0:25:48That depends. It depends on you being good children.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Are you good children?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Are you?
0:25:55 > 0:25:56Then you may have the chocolate.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Hello, Victor.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09- I just came to say goodbye. I'm off this morning.- What a pity.
0:26:09 > 0:26:10We've hardly spoken.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12You never know. You might still be here when I get back.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14You mean it looks like I'll take forever to do this.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18No, it seems you've made a real difference already.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20You will look after each other, won't you?
0:26:20 > 0:26:22I know he misses me far more than he says.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25My specialty, of course, looking after other people.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Ah, there you are, Lucy.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Well, Victor, I see you're making a little progress.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Yes, I'm at a very crucial stage, as it happens.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Good.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37And to make things even easier,
0:26:37 > 0:26:39I think it's time we dealt with these shutters, don't you?
0:26:46 > 0:26:48They're kept closed because the sun is meant to be bad
0:26:48 > 0:26:51for some of these valuable books, but to hell with it.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54It's raining anyway. Time to ignore these rules, don't you think?
0:26:54 > 0:26:56That's so much nicer.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59It's always a good idea, ignoring rules.
0:27:05 > 0:27:06Miss Griffiths?
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Thank you for taking time to see me, Captain Ferguson.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14Of course. I didn't think you'd want to see me again.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17- What would you like to drink? - I'm not here to have a drink.
0:27:17 > 0:27:18I came to show you these.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- Who took these?- I did.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33I have to say, I've seen more flattering pictures of myself.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38I always knew you were lying to me,
0:27:38 > 0:27:40about not having another office here.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43I don't know why you simply didn't own up about it.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47Tell me I couldn't see it. That way, you might have gotten rid of me.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50I could say I had to lie about it.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52It's officially secret.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54It's illegal to tell people about it.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56But I'm not saying that.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Really? So what are you saying?
0:27:58 > 0:28:01I'm saying that I'll take you up there.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04WOMAN GASPS
0:28:06 > 0:28:09It's quite an operation you've got here.
0:28:09 > 0:28:10It is, yes.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13I'm not going to introduce you to everybody,
0:28:13 > 0:28:14as this is an informal visit.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Could we all go to lunch, take a particularly early lunch?
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Well, blimey, that normally causes a stampede.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Now, come on, lunch. Please.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35I've got some pictures to show you now.
0:28:35 > 0:28:36Why have you brought me here?
0:28:36 > 0:28:39Because I know you're not going to let me look in all these files,
0:28:39 > 0:28:42- are you?- You're quite right, I'm not.- So why do it, then?
0:28:43 > 0:28:45I can't see any advantage to you.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49Rather an ugly collection, I admit.
0:28:51 > 0:28:55These five Germans all have vital information -
0:28:55 > 0:28:57some about the workings of Soviet intelligence,
0:28:57 > 0:29:00some about the latest development in armaments and technology.
0:29:00 > 0:29:02I can't give you all the details, obviously,
0:29:02 > 0:29:04and this happened before I was even here.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08But they've all been spirited away.
0:29:08 > 0:29:14They've been taken to safe houses, been given new identities, and why?
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Because they all have knowledge
0:29:16 > 0:29:20that is crucial for the defence of this country,
0:29:20 > 0:29:23and none of them, none of them...
0:29:24 > 0:29:25..are on your wanted list.
0:29:27 > 0:29:28Hmm.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31You made sure you chose the right file.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Oh, I'm sorry, sir, I beg your pardon!
0:29:33 > 0:29:35We thought we'd clean this room now.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38We saw everyone leaving for lunch, we thought it was a good moment.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41Right, well, let's get out of this place, shall we?
0:29:46 > 0:29:49What's the matter? Are you expecting somebody to be following us?
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Well, maybe. I mean, the cleaners looked shocked
0:29:51 > 0:29:53to see me in that room.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55They're our secret cleaners, with security passes.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Very few people know about that floor in the hotel.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02You must really like that, the secrecy of it all.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Of course, nobody gets to see what's in those files.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08So you broke the Official Secrets Act for me?
0:30:08 > 0:30:10Why, exactly?
0:30:10 > 0:30:12To get rid of you. Well, you just said if I hadn't lied to you,
0:30:12 > 0:30:17you would have gone away, so I think there's a very good chance
0:30:17 > 0:30:19of that working, don't you?
0:30:19 > 0:30:21Or of course it could have exactly the opposite effect.
0:30:23 > 0:30:24You know, it's lunchtime,
0:30:24 > 0:30:26and I fancy something rather sweet for lunch.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28Something with a lot of sugar in it.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30And since I've not been able to get rid of you yet,
0:30:30 > 0:30:32maybe you'd like to join me.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34Something sweet for lunch?
0:30:34 > 0:30:36That's crazy. You can't get sugar anywhere,
0:30:36 > 0:30:38especially not round here.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44This is definitely my first toffee apple since before the war.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46I'm not sure eating them here was such a brilliant idea.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51- Making people jealous.- Yes, well, however many children gawp at us,
0:30:51 > 0:30:54I am not going to feel guilty.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56It's difficult to make you feel guilty, isn't it?
0:30:56 > 0:30:58I was waiting for you to say something like that.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02I'm sorry, but showing me that file and buying me a toffee apple,
0:31:02 > 0:31:03it's hardly going to change what I think.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06- Which is?- That it's extraordinary
0:31:06 > 0:31:09that only a year ago, crimes were being committed,
0:31:09 > 0:31:13people were being murdered on an unimaginable scale in camps,
0:31:13 > 0:31:16and yet somehow it seems that that's just a side issue...
0:31:17 > 0:31:21..for nearly everybody. Not remotely as serious as beating the Russians,
0:31:21 > 0:31:24or getting ahead of the Americans.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Those are the only things that count now.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28That's shocking, isn't it?
0:31:28 > 0:31:31Oh, put like that, yeah, it is shocking, of course.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33How else could you put it so it doesn't sound shocking?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Some people might say that if we don't make national security
0:31:36 > 0:31:38our first priority, what happens next
0:31:38 > 0:31:41may be even more horrific than what happened in those camps.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43What does that mean?
0:31:43 > 0:31:45The Soviet Union is a real threat right at this moment,
0:31:45 > 0:31:47far more than people realise,
0:31:47 > 0:31:50and I know from my own personal experience how terrible it is
0:31:50 > 0:31:54- if we're not ready for that. - So nothing else matters?
0:31:54 > 0:31:57That will always take precedence, being ready for the next war?
0:31:57 > 0:31:58Stopping the next war.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08Ah, the food is exactly on time.
0:32:09 > 0:32:10That's good.
0:32:12 > 0:32:15Especially as you're going to start starving me soon.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25During the war, I worked at SOE headquarters in Baker Street.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27I saw what happened to many of our agents
0:32:27 > 0:32:29after they got across the Channel.
0:32:29 > 0:32:30They were betrayed...
0:32:32 > 0:32:35..brutally tortured, and then executed.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39My old boss, Vera Atkins...
0:32:40 > 0:32:43..is at this moment crisscrossing Europe
0:32:43 > 0:32:45trying to find those responsible
0:32:45 > 0:32:46and bring them to justice.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49It's what's had such an effect on me,
0:32:49 > 0:32:54and made me so committed to catching people who are guilty of war crimes.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57And then, of course, finding out that some of these people
0:32:57 > 0:33:03are right here, under our nose, being looked after by you.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- It's...really hard. - But you don't know that yet,
0:33:06 > 0:33:08that we have anybody really bad.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11In fact, right now, there's only one German left in the hotel,
0:33:11 > 0:33:13my scientist.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16- Nobody else.- I'm not sure I believe that, Captain Ferguson.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20Anyway, having just seen your real office,
0:33:20 > 0:33:23and how big your operation is in the hotel,
0:33:23 > 0:33:28I've realised you are in fact in no position to help me, Mr Ferguson.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30I don't follow.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Because they won't let you.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35- They'll finish you off if you try to help me.- Finish me off?
0:33:35 > 0:33:37- How?- Well, that depends how much you inconvenience them.
0:33:37 > 0:33:41If what you did proved a major nuisance - you'll be disappeared,
0:33:41 > 0:33:44- most probably.- Nobody's going to lay a finger on me, Kathy,
0:33:44 > 0:33:45I can assure you of that.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Especially not at the moment when I've got the German working for me
0:33:48 > 0:33:51- really well.- You're almost certainly being watched right now.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53Let's see if we can spot them.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57- Who do you think it is?- I'm not easy to intimidate, and no...
0:33:58 > 0:34:01- ..nobody's watching. - Thank you for the toffee apple.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04It was a rare treat.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08So, this is going to seem doubly ungrateful,
0:34:08 > 0:34:12but the only reason I can think of why you might do something for me...
0:34:12 > 0:34:13Is what?
0:34:13 > 0:34:16..is because you really like taking risks, Mr Ferguson.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30It is very kind of you, Mr Lindsay-Jones,
0:34:30 > 0:34:32to suggest we have lunch together.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35- Thank you so much. - It's quite all right, Victor.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41You don't have to eat quite so quickly, we're not in a race.
0:34:41 > 0:34:42Not in a race, no,
0:34:42 > 0:34:45but I don't want to take too much time away from my work.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47I want to get the task done.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50- I know you do. - And today I'm doing very well.
0:34:50 > 0:34:51Sometimes I do get...
0:34:53 > 0:34:57..distracted, I know, and not just by the books...
0:34:58 > 0:35:03..but I think about things, things that have happened in the past,
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- and I get angry. - It's quite all right to get angry.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08You can get as angry as you like here,
0:35:08 > 0:35:10although preferably not with me.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Of course not.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15Do you ever get angry, Mr Lindsay-Jones?
0:35:15 > 0:35:18- I can't really imagine that. - Oh, you'd be surprised, Victor.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21There are some things that have happened which have made me angry.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23Really angry.
0:35:23 > 0:35:24I think about them every day.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27- Really?- Yes. Because the truth hasn't been told
0:35:27 > 0:35:29about these particular things.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38Sorry, darling, I just realised I left my papers in here.
0:35:38 > 0:35:41I fell asleep working on them last night.
0:35:41 > 0:35:42So much to do.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46I didn't mean to wake you. Is everything all right, darling?
0:35:46 > 0:35:49Yes. By the way, I don't think I told you,
0:35:49 > 0:35:51it went quite well with Callum.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54Well, at least he seemed to listen to me rattling on.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57I've sort of arranged to meet him again.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59- I hope that's OK. - Of course, darling.
0:36:02 > 0:36:03I knew he'd be helpful.
0:36:06 > 0:36:07Are you all right here, Lotte?
0:36:07 > 0:36:10- I won't be gone for long. - Don't worry, Mr Ferguson,
0:36:10 > 0:36:12we'll take good care of her.
0:36:21 > 0:36:22Well, I don't believe it.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25Honestly, I don't believe it.
0:36:25 > 0:36:26I mean, you're actually saying
0:36:26 > 0:36:29that we don't need a sweptback wing to go supersonic?
0:36:29 > 0:36:31Of course, they are the future, there's no question of that,
0:36:31 > 0:36:34but if your priority is to beat the Americans,
0:36:34 > 0:36:36to do the sound barrier before anybody else,
0:36:36 > 0:36:37if this is your number one objective,
0:36:37 > 0:36:39you can do it with a fixed-wing plane.
0:36:39 > 0:36:40We can't present them with it.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42We can't say that we went to all this trouble
0:36:42 > 0:36:44to get him working for us, and now he is recommending
0:36:44 > 0:36:46that we stick to what we've got already.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48And the government has just cancelled
0:36:48 > 0:36:49the latest fixed-wing fighter.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51You're too obsessed with copying what we were doing.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54What I'm telling you is if you want to be absolutely certain
0:36:54 > 0:36:56of being first, you can do it with a fixed-wing plane,
0:36:56 > 0:36:58and with this new engine we're going to build here.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Yeah, well, we ARE going to be the first,
0:37:00 > 0:37:03and we ARE going to do it with a sweptback wing.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10We just wanted to know, sir, if you have any more chocolate?
0:37:10 > 0:37:11What are you three up to?
0:37:11 > 0:37:14We...we got the wrong room number, miss.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16We were just looking for somebody.
0:37:16 > 0:37:17We got the wrong person.
0:37:17 > 0:37:18Don't you fib to me.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20What were you after? He has got chocolate.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27- Yes?- Please do not give these children chocolate.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30They shouldn't be asking strangers for sweets, or for anything else.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33Are you their sister? Or their mother, even?
0:37:33 > 0:37:34I'm just a resident in the hotel.
0:37:38 > 0:37:39Come along.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Oh, my God, I completely forgot I had to be
0:37:45 > 0:37:47back at the hotel at three o'clock.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50Well, that's going to be difficult, it's now ten to four.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52Ten to four? No, it can't be!
0:37:53 > 0:37:55I promised I'd...
0:37:56 > 0:38:00- No.- "They just couldn't stop themselves from opening the door.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03"Inside the large kitchen, there was a golden dish,
0:38:03 > 0:38:06"sitting on a table with steam rising out of it.
0:38:06 > 0:38:11"They weren't able to believe their eyes. They'd found the food at last!
0:38:11 > 0:38:13"But as the three of them got closer,
0:38:13 > 0:38:15"a terrible voice seemed to come out of the dish.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19"A low, hissing voice.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20"It said,
0:38:20 > 0:38:23"'Eat me and you will die!'."
0:38:26 > 0:38:28There you are!
0:38:28 > 0:38:33That is a record. Nearly two and a half hours late.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36I know, and I'm so very sorry.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Well, you seem to have found a way to spend the time, though, I see.
0:38:40 > 0:38:41Well, we had a hunt among the books in the hotel,
0:38:41 > 0:38:45found this strange story about three hungry witches.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47We'll have to finish this another day, girls.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49- Oh!- I promise you we will.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52Now, go and play in the yard by the kitchen.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54They've been running all over the hotel, apparently.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58From the other lady.
0:38:58 > 0:38:59Oh, thank you.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04I'm impressed - they do everything you say.
0:39:04 > 0:39:06Well, today they do.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09Now, we're far too late to go to the gallery.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13Would it be very wicked if we went to the movies?
0:39:13 > 0:39:16INDISTINCT FILM DIALOGUE
0:39:20 > 0:39:22- Come on, let's go up here.- Why?
0:39:24 > 0:39:26You see a sign and you have to disobey it?
0:39:26 > 0:39:28It'll be nice up here, you'll see.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33I told you - the best seats in the house.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35Yes, except every time the seat creaks,
0:39:35 > 0:39:38I'm going to think the ceiling's coming down!
0:39:38 > 0:39:40And, look, we are completely alone.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Well, almost alone.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47Oh, don't worry. She can't see us, I promise.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51GUNFIRE IN FILM
0:39:51 > 0:39:53You see, I told you, she can't!
0:39:54 > 0:39:55You love this, don't you?
0:39:55 > 0:39:58- Love what?- You're just like your brother,
0:39:58 > 0:39:59you have to take on authority,
0:39:59 > 0:40:02it doesn't matter who it is, you have to try and break the rules.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Well, if the rules are particularly stupid, like now, then, yes,
0:40:05 > 0:40:08I'll break them. Anyway, I'm not half as wild as my brother.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10You know, he's doing much better at the moment.
0:40:10 > 0:40:14I really like that, how much you take care of him, look out for him.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19Both of your parents are dead, aren't they?
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Oh, how did you know that?
0:40:25 > 0:40:26Come on, it's easy.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30You're so obviously on your own, you and your brother.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33And, of course, you clearly never worry about what they'll think.
0:40:37 > 0:40:42- She's going to get us soon.- You know, I think you might be right.
0:40:43 > 0:40:44Let's move. Go on.
0:40:46 > 0:40:47Go on.
0:40:50 > 0:40:51Oh, look at this!
0:40:51 > 0:40:53It's like it's waiting for us!
0:40:56 > 0:40:58It's all clean!
0:40:58 > 0:41:01Like somebody's been polishing it, even though nobody's allowed in.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03But did they leave any liquor for us?
0:41:04 > 0:41:06I'll have a whisky soda, barman.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09Well, sadly, they didn't leave any drink behind.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11Oh, hang on, what's this key?
0:41:14 > 0:41:17Maybe there's a cupboard full of alcohol.
0:41:19 > 0:41:20If only we could find it.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26- You know why we're meeting?- No.
0:41:28 > 0:41:29Why are we meeting?
0:41:30 > 0:41:33- I'm curious to know. - Because Alex is so busy.
0:41:35 > 0:41:40He has to work such long hours right now, that's why.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01SHE SHRIEKS
0:42:04 > 0:42:08She was terrifying, absolutely terrifying.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10It was like the murderer coming in.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Her eyes, she seemed so excited to catch us.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16Did she? It was only a kiss, after all.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19And that's all it was, Cal.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Was it?
0:42:22 > 0:42:24- Only a kiss?- Well, that's...
0:42:25 > 0:42:28..what I'm calling it, so that's what it was.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30It was because you were really late today.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33So everything became chaotic.
0:42:33 > 0:42:34You brought chaos.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37- So it's all my fault?- Entirely.
0:42:37 > 0:42:38Of course.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40It's never a good idea to be late, I told you.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46Anyway, it won't happen again, any of it.
0:42:46 > 0:42:47Won't it?
0:42:48 > 0:42:49No.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Let's talk about more important things.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56Well, what could be more important?
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Well, Lotte needs to be found a school, for a start.
0:42:59 > 0:43:02Of course. The government will arrange that.
0:43:02 > 0:43:05She needs to go to a good school,
0:43:05 > 0:43:06and she wants to see her brother again.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09No, no, no, that is not a sensible idea at all.
0:43:09 > 0:43:10Well, I think it is.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12Harold's having a dinner party on Thursday.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15We could ask him to invite your brother, Lotte, Dieter,
0:43:15 > 0:43:17and you, of course.
0:43:17 > 0:43:20You're doubling the size of his dinner party, probably!
0:43:20 > 0:43:21We can't ask him to do that!
0:43:21 > 0:43:22Of course we can!
0:43:22 > 0:43:24LIFT BELL PINGS
0:43:27 > 0:43:29I've been waiting for you. Did you get my note?
0:43:29 > 0:43:34I did. It was a bit cryptic, wasn't it?
0:43:34 > 0:43:37I've got to talk to you about what's happening on the floor below.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43So go on.
0:43:46 > 0:43:48SLOW PIANO MUSIC PLAYS
0:43:48 > 0:43:50Are there other people from the Secret Service
0:43:50 > 0:43:52operating in this hotel?
0:43:52 > 0:43:55- No, no-one.- I think whoever told you that was lying.
0:43:55 > 0:43:57You should have a look at room 602.
0:43:57 > 0:43:58HE STOPS MUSIC
0:44:03 > 0:44:05So what are we going to do?
0:44:05 > 0:44:08You are going to go in there on your own.
0:44:08 > 0:44:09Me? Why me?
0:44:09 > 0:44:12- You're the one in intelligence. - Well, you're the actress.
0:44:12 > 0:44:13Well, you've met him already,
0:44:13 > 0:44:15you have a better chance of finding something out.
0:44:15 > 0:44:18But I also live here, in case you've forgotten.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20I've managed to get a very good rate for my room,
0:44:20 > 0:44:22maybe with a little help from one of my gentlemen friends,
0:44:22 > 0:44:25but I have managed it, and I have a roof over my head, Callum,
0:44:25 > 0:44:26and I intend to keep it.
0:44:26 > 0:44:29No-one gets thrown out of the hotel, Julia, unless I agree to it.
0:44:29 > 0:44:31That's true for the moment.
0:44:31 > 0:44:35- But it might not last.- Don't worry, you can do it, Julia.
0:44:36 > 0:44:39- Look, I'll be right here.- Oh...
0:44:43 > 0:44:45SHE KNOCKS ON DOOR
0:44:49 > 0:44:54Hello again. I just wanted to apologise for sounding so bossy
0:44:54 > 0:44:57this afternoon, you know, with the children.
0:44:57 > 0:44:59No.
0:44:59 > 0:45:00What you said was perfectly right.
0:45:00 > 0:45:03Yes, but I didn't mean to sound so rude.
0:45:08 > 0:45:11I'm staying just on the floor above and I know how horrid it is to feel
0:45:11 > 0:45:13you have to avoid people in a hotel.
0:45:14 > 0:45:16Hello, Mr Ferguson.
0:45:18 > 0:45:19I wondered when you'd be along here.
0:45:20 > 0:45:24Sent somebody into the room to nose about for you, have you?
0:45:24 > 0:45:27Maybe. Who have you got in there, anyway?
0:45:27 > 0:45:29Quite a catch, in fact.
0:45:29 > 0:45:35Horst Kleinow. He's a senior German counter-intelligence officer.
0:45:35 > 0:45:37Did all sorts of unpleasant things
0:45:37 > 0:45:40to our agents when he was interrogating them.
0:45:40 > 0:45:42God knows what else besides.
0:45:42 > 0:45:45Helped to kill a lot of Jews as well.
0:45:45 > 0:45:49But he has astonishing information on the Russians.
0:45:49 > 0:45:53- Astonishing?- Astonishingly valuable, yes.
0:45:53 > 0:45:56And that little man, Mr Emmanuel?
0:45:56 > 0:45:58What about him?
0:45:58 > 0:46:00Ah, that tiny man.
0:46:01 > 0:46:02He was just a contact.
0:46:02 > 0:46:06A go-between to help us get Kleinow here.
0:46:06 > 0:46:08Are you staying here long, Mr...?
0:46:08 > 0:46:10Schmidt.
0:46:10 > 0:46:14Hans Schmidt. No, I will be leaving in a few days,
0:46:14 > 0:46:16- but what about you? - I'm an actress, Mr Schmidt.
0:46:18 > 0:46:22My career's very much in its early stages, I have to confess.
0:46:22 > 0:46:25But I'm quite determined, which is a good thing,
0:46:25 > 0:46:27- don't you agree?- Oh, yes.
0:46:27 > 0:46:29Maybe we should discuss each other's futures
0:46:29 > 0:46:31before you leave, Mr Schmidt.
0:46:34 > 0:46:35What do you think?
0:46:35 > 0:46:39What are your plans for the invaluable Mr Kleinow?
0:46:39 > 0:46:41We're going to disappear him.
0:46:41 > 0:46:43We're going to fake his death.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45He's going to get pneumonia over the next few days,
0:46:45 > 0:46:49right here in the hotel, so plenty of witnesses can see him deteriorate
0:46:49 > 0:46:53and then off he goes to hospital to die.
0:46:53 > 0:46:54It's one of the old tricks.
0:46:54 > 0:46:56Still very reliable, though.
0:46:56 > 0:47:01The Americans are doing a lot of this too with their Nazis right now.
0:47:01 > 0:47:02Seems the season for it.
0:47:06 > 0:47:08Had a nice chat in there?
0:47:08 > 0:47:10This is Mr Salter,
0:47:10 > 0:47:12a colleague of mine...
0:47:12 > 0:47:14- in a way.- Yes.
0:47:14 > 0:47:16He's a most charming gentleman.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20Of course he is.
0:47:20 > 0:47:22SHE PLAYS PIANO
0:47:27 > 0:47:28Still up, dear?
0:47:28 > 0:47:30PIANO STOPS
0:47:30 > 0:47:34Yes. If I don't stay up, I hardly ever see you.
0:47:35 > 0:47:36You're still in your coat.
0:47:36 > 0:47:39Yes, I just ran straight up the stairs when I heard the noise.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43It is a noise, yes, you're right.
0:47:43 > 0:47:46It's a lovely surprise you're still up, darling.
0:47:53 > 0:47:54You look so beautiful.
0:47:59 > 0:48:00HE COUGHS WHEEZILY
0:48:05 > 0:48:06HE BREATHES HEAVILY
0:48:08 > 0:48:09Are you all right, Mr Schmidt?
0:48:14 > 0:48:18It's my lungs. The air is filthy in this city.
0:48:23 > 0:48:25PHONE RINGS
0:48:27 > 0:48:30- Yes?- Ah, Miss Griffiths, it's Callum Ferguson.
0:48:30 > 0:48:33- Yes, Mr Ferguson? - Horst Kleinow, is he on your list?
0:48:33 > 0:48:35He most certainly is.
0:48:35 > 0:48:36He's staying here at the hotel.
0:48:36 > 0:48:38- I just found out. - You've just found out?
0:48:38 > 0:48:40No, I have, I've just found out.
0:48:40 > 0:48:42COUGHING CONTINUES
0:48:46 > 0:48:48I can't use anybody here, obviously.
0:48:48 > 0:48:50But since he's on the official wanted list,
0:48:50 > 0:48:53you can get a warrant for his arrest using the local police.
0:48:53 > 0:48:55They can take him into custody.
0:48:55 > 0:48:57- Can you do that? - I will do that, yes.
0:48:57 > 0:49:00You don't have long. 48 hours at the most.
0:49:01 > 0:49:02I understand that.
0:49:02 > 0:49:06# Riding on a choo-choo
0:49:06 > 0:49:10# On my choo-choo train
0:49:10 > 0:49:13# I didn't want to leave you... #
0:49:15 > 0:49:17Oh!
0:49:17 > 0:49:18Mr Ferguson!
0:49:18 > 0:49:21Well, we haven't seen you for a while.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23Well, I've missed being here.
0:49:23 > 0:49:24Huh!
0:49:24 > 0:49:27I was just rehearsing something.
0:49:27 > 0:49:29Anna here makes a good audience.
0:49:29 > 0:49:31I hope I'm a good audience.
0:49:31 > 0:49:35You, on the other hand, Mr Ferguson, do not make a good audience.
0:49:35 > 0:49:38You always seem to come here when there's something on your mind.
0:49:38 > 0:49:39It's that obvious again, is it?
0:49:39 > 0:49:40SHE CHUCKLES
0:49:40 > 0:49:43Certainly is.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46I keep telling you, if you some kind of spy, you must be a lousy one.
0:49:46 > 0:49:48You just can't hide it.
0:49:48 > 0:49:50You think that's amazing, don't you, that I can see that?
0:49:50 > 0:49:53Well, let me tell you, there's nothing amazing about it.
0:49:53 > 0:49:55- I believe you.- So...
0:49:56 > 0:49:57..what is going on right now?
0:49:57 > 0:49:59You worried about making a wrong decision?
0:50:01 > 0:50:04Mm, I hit the mark there.
0:50:15 > 0:50:17HE COUGHS
0:50:24 > 0:50:26Ah, there you are, sir.
0:50:26 > 0:50:28We need to consult you about the files, sir,
0:50:28 > 0:50:31- which sections we're going to try first.- Not now, Ringwood.
0:50:32 > 0:50:35Listen to me. You stay right here
0:50:35 > 0:50:39and you don't let anybody leave that room.
0:50:39 > 0:50:40Ah, there you are.
0:50:41 > 0:50:43I didn't know you'd arrived.
0:50:43 > 0:50:45They're watching the front of the hotel as well.
0:50:48 > 0:50:50Nobody's left the room, sir.
0:51:02 > 0:51:04I don't know how they did that.
0:51:04 > 0:51:06We were keeping watch the whole time.
0:51:13 > 0:51:15Well, that went well, didn't it?
0:51:16 > 0:51:19Maybe they left something in the room we missed.
0:51:25 > 0:51:26What is it?
0:51:37 > 0:51:39I thought there might be one left.
0:51:39 > 0:51:41Now, where did they go?
0:51:41 > 0:51:43The hospital. They went to the hospital.
0:51:43 > 0:51:45The man was very ill.
0:51:46 > 0:51:50Now, don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you.
0:51:50 > 0:51:53But you are going to tell me.
0:51:53 > 0:51:54Now, just nod your head.
0:51:54 > 0:51:57Did they go to the airport?
0:51:57 > 0:51:59Hmm?
0:51:59 > 0:52:01Southampton?
0:52:03 > 0:52:04Come on.
0:52:07 > 0:52:08Harwich?
0:52:11 > 0:52:13We need a car. We need to get a car.
0:52:14 > 0:52:16Callum?
0:52:19 > 0:52:21You're not ready yet. You're not dressed.
0:52:21 > 0:52:22Oh, God, the dinner party!
0:52:22 > 0:52:25Look, I hadn't forgotten, Lotte.
0:52:25 > 0:52:27Tell them I'll be joining them later.
0:52:27 > 0:52:29Please, tell Victor that I'll definitely be there soon.
0:52:37 > 0:52:38I'm very early.
0:52:38 > 0:52:40I'm the first, probably, aren't I?
0:52:40 > 0:52:42Ah, Victor, yes,
0:52:42 > 0:52:46you are a little early, but I always like people who are early.
0:52:46 > 0:52:48I brought some food.
0:52:48 > 0:52:51Just a few tins I had - spam, sardines.
0:52:51 > 0:52:54In case we run out of hot food, how sensible.
0:52:55 > 0:52:59I ought to say, I haven't eaten with more than one person in a long time
0:52:59 > 0:53:03and my brother tends to get a little nervous about me meeting new people,
0:53:03 > 0:53:04so I hope I remember how it's done.
0:53:09 > 0:53:12Why are they taking him to Harwich, if they really are?
0:53:12 > 0:53:15Because he's going back to Germany, I expect.
0:53:15 > 0:53:18So he can go through the intelligence that the British have
0:53:18 > 0:53:19on the Russians over there.
0:53:19 > 0:53:21They needed to stage his death in England
0:53:21 > 0:53:23because so many people disappear in Germany.
0:53:23 > 0:53:28It's hard to be officially dead and be believed over there.
0:53:28 > 0:53:31Why are you suddenly helping me to get Kleinow?
0:53:31 > 0:53:33Because I didn't like the way he looked at me.
0:53:33 > 0:53:34SHE SCOFFS
0:53:34 > 0:53:37Are you going to tell me the real reason?
0:53:42 > 0:53:44I can believe totally in what we're doing,
0:53:44 > 0:53:47of getting the best German minds working for us,
0:53:47 > 0:53:50but I can also believe that there are one or two really nasty people
0:53:50 > 0:53:52that deserve to answer for what they've done.
0:53:54 > 0:53:55I don't see a contradiction.
0:53:55 > 0:53:59Others might. You really think they're going to let you do this,
0:53:59 > 0:54:02get away with it, that nothing's going to happen afterwards?
0:54:02 > 0:54:04I believe I can get away with it, yes.
0:54:04 > 0:54:06Two slices of roast beef for everyone.
0:54:06 > 0:54:08The height of luxury, I hope.
0:54:08 > 0:54:11I used weeks of meat rationing for this.
0:54:11 > 0:54:13Fabulous, what a treat.
0:54:13 > 0:54:16Splendid. And unlike everywhere else, it's not overcooked.
0:54:16 > 0:54:18Ah, the English way -
0:54:18 > 0:54:21let's make it taste as close to old leather as we possibly can.
0:54:21 > 0:54:22GUESTS TITTER
0:54:22 > 0:54:24Yes, there may not be enough meat to go around
0:54:24 > 0:54:26because some of us were added to the guest list.
0:54:26 > 0:54:28There's plenty, Victor, don't worry.
0:54:28 > 0:54:32I've got some tins here, though, as you can see, if we need some more.
0:54:34 > 0:54:37- Feel free to ask when you fancy some.- We will.
0:54:37 > 0:54:39Can I ask a stupid question?
0:54:39 > 0:54:41Of course.
0:54:41 > 0:54:43How are you going to get them to hand Kleinow over?
0:54:43 > 0:54:47It shouldn't be too difficult, providing we can find him.
0:54:47 > 0:54:52It won't? Are they just going to say, "Take him, by all means.
0:54:52 > 0:54:54"He's all yours." That's what's going to happen?
0:54:54 > 0:54:56They'll be keeping him in a room somewhere out of the way.
0:54:57 > 0:55:01No-one is expecting us to show up.
0:55:01 > 0:55:05So I just walk in and say I want an urgent word with him in private.
0:55:08 > 0:55:10- You don't believe me?- No.
0:55:15 > 0:55:20So, Victor, I hear you've been sorting out Harold's library?
0:55:20 > 0:55:23Yes, I think I've been knocking it into some sort of shape.
0:55:23 > 0:55:25Victor's brought a sudden energy into the house.
0:55:25 > 0:55:27- It's highly contagious.- Which is a very good thing, isn't it?
0:55:27 > 0:55:30Absolutely. I think we were all running around with so much energy
0:55:30 > 0:55:33during the war, then we tried to turn it off like a tap,
0:55:33 > 0:55:35which doesn't work, of course,
0:55:35 > 0:55:37because the adrenaline is still there, ticking away all the time.
0:55:37 > 0:55:40It's best to do something about it.
0:55:40 > 0:55:43- Like what, for example? - Like getting younger, for a start.
0:55:43 > 0:55:44GUESTS CHUCKLE
0:55:44 > 0:55:48I'm serious. I think we settle for being old far too quickly.
0:55:48 > 0:55:51I tried to dress like my father as soon as I could,
0:55:51 > 0:55:52which was ridiculous -
0:55:52 > 0:55:54at 18, in a bowler.
0:55:54 > 0:55:55You go out into the street,
0:55:55 > 0:55:58you see young women dressing like their mothers again
0:55:58 > 0:55:59as if nothing had happened.
0:55:59 > 0:56:01I think we should plan to get younger
0:56:01 > 0:56:04and not pretend that this energy has all gone away.
0:56:04 > 0:56:05- So true.- Of course,
0:56:05 > 0:56:08one has to have done something in the war to have that energy.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11He built jet planes, I was in the army.
0:56:13 > 0:56:15What did you do?
0:56:16 > 0:56:19I was in Washington, stationed at our embassy.
0:56:19 > 0:56:23What about you two? Foreign Office as well, no doubt.
0:56:23 > 0:56:26As was I, Victor. I'm sure we all worked hard.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29I've said the wrong thing, haven't I?
0:56:29 > 0:56:31Nobody's offended. It's absolutely fine.
0:56:31 > 0:56:33No, I've said the wrong thing because nobody is allowed to talk
0:56:33 > 0:56:37about who did what, about what some of us really saw, really did.
0:56:37 > 0:56:39It's such bad form.
0:56:41 > 0:56:42And I'm sorry I look like this,
0:56:42 > 0:56:45I must have just mislaid my dinner jacket, mustn't I?
0:56:45 > 0:56:48And I realise that these tins maybe look a bit ridiculous.
0:56:48 > 0:56:51You see, I haven't done this sort of thing recently
0:56:51 > 0:56:53and so seeing your faces so clearly,
0:56:53 > 0:56:56especially your faces, has been difficult.
0:57:00 > 0:57:02It was a big mistake, me coming here.
0:57:02 > 0:57:03I'm so very... So very sorry.
0:57:03 > 0:57:04Victor...
0:57:14 > 0:57:16Victor has his own approach to things.
0:57:16 > 0:57:18It takes a bit of getting used to.
0:57:20 > 0:57:23- HE SOBS - It's all right, Victor.
0:57:23 > 0:57:26- Don't be upset.- I'm not upset.
0:57:27 > 0:57:31- You're crying.- I'm not upset in that way, not in the way you think.
0:57:35 > 0:57:36You don't know what I think.
0:57:40 > 0:57:43Nobody cares about whether you're wearing a dinner jacket,
0:57:43 > 0:57:45they really don't.
0:57:46 > 0:57:49And the tins were a good idea, they were.
0:57:49 > 0:57:50I promise.
0:57:50 > 0:57:53After all, there were more guests.
0:57:58 > 0:58:00I find it so difficult.
0:58:01 > 0:58:03I find even the easiest things so difficult.
0:58:03 > 0:58:05I can't get them right however hard I try.
0:58:05 > 0:58:08I can feel it happening when I'm with people
0:58:08 > 0:58:10and I start to do things I shouldn't,
0:58:10 > 0:58:13like I'm not able to stop myself, and I hate it.
0:58:13 > 0:58:15I hate not being able to.
0:58:17 > 0:58:19I know.
0:58:20 > 0:58:22I know.
0:58:29 > 0:58:32CAR HORN BLARES
0:58:58 > 0:59:00Wait, I think I see him.
0:59:06 > 0:59:09Excuse me. Thank you.
0:59:09 > 0:59:11Coming through.
0:59:14 > 0:59:16INDISTINCT CONVERSATION
0:59:18 > 0:59:22THEY LAUGH
0:59:22 > 0:59:24You said it would be simple.
0:59:24 > 0:59:26I was wrong.
0:59:29 > 0:59:32LAUGHTER CONTINUES
