0:00:02 > 0:00:04Every papist in the kingdom is a potential traitor.

0:00:04 > 0:00:06They must be watched and made to answer for their crimes.

0:00:06 > 0:00:08What you propose, sir, is a recipe for rebellion.

0:00:08 > 0:00:10On the contrary, my Lord Northumberland,

0:00:10 > 0:00:12it is a recipe to avoid rebellion.

0:00:12 > 0:00:14My sister was crushed like a seed...

0:00:14 > 0:00:16BONES CRACK, SHE GROANS AND CROWD CHEERS

0:00:20 > 0:00:22The sword plays no part in what we do.

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Can His Majesty not see the danger the kingdom is in?

0:00:24 > 0:00:28Flanders is where these dangerous spirits are gathered.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31My name is Guy Fawkes.

0:00:31 > 0:00:32FLESH SQUELCHES

0:00:32 > 0:00:34Nothing to do with desperate men.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25CHANTING IN LATIN

0:01:44 > 0:01:48Gentlemen, His Excellency the Constable of Castile.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51CHANTING CONTINUES

0:01:54 > 0:01:56HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:01:56 > 0:01:58Your Excellency, I am Robert Catesby.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02His Excellency knows who you are, Master Catesby. State your purpose.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08My purpose is to kill the King of England.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12In our country, as Catholics, we are hunted,

0:02:12 > 0:02:15imprisoned, fined,

0:02:15 > 0:02:17banished, tortured and hanged.

0:02:19 > 0:02:20Kings are anointed of God.

0:02:20 > 0:02:25James is a pretended king, and a tyrant.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28God alone disposes of Kings, good or bad.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32Help us, Excellency. Spain is our only hope.

0:02:36 > 0:02:37How would you have Spain help you?

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Send us soldiers.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46Send us arms and horses that we may restore the true faith.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48The treaty that is presently under negotiation between

0:02:48 > 0:02:52His Catholic Majesty King Philip and King James of England

0:02:52 > 0:02:55will see an end to your persecution.

0:02:55 > 0:02:59Before any treaty is signed, we will be overpowered and uprooted.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03We will be utterly destroyed.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08I beg you, Excellency,

0:03:08 > 0:03:10do not suffer this to happen.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15CHANTING CONTINUES

0:03:22 > 0:03:23We will consider your petition.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Sir, if you saw what I have seen,

0:03:29 > 0:03:31you would not weep tears of pity and rage,

0:03:31 > 0:03:35though your eyes would be pricked and red -

0:03:35 > 0:03:39you would reach for your sword, as I reach for mine.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01I have news of Catesby.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03He was seen in the company of his cousin Wintour,

0:04:03 > 0:04:06and also with Jack Wright.

0:04:06 > 0:04:10Catesby, Wintour and Wright - that is a dangerous pack.

0:04:10 > 0:04:11Where are they now?

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Well, Wright has returned to Yorkshire,

0:04:13 > 0:04:15but Catesby and Wintour have not been seen since.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19Instruct the searchers at the ports to keep a lookout for

0:04:19 > 0:04:21Catesby and his cousin.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Have them closely watched.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26If they are trying to join Stanley's exiles in Brussels,

0:04:26 > 0:04:28I want to know about it.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55Good day, madam.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59What a splendid house.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03I had not expected anything so beautiful.

0:05:05 > 0:05:06Perhaps a little barren.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09We have you to thank for our barrenness, sir.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13What a wonderful inheritance.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16I congratulate you on your great good fortune.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41The boy's father is not at home.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44Have you come all this way to put me to interrogation?

0:05:44 > 0:05:49I ask not as the King's secretary, but as a neglectful father.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52I have a son of my own, William,

0:05:52 > 0:05:55but I am too much about the King's business

0:05:55 > 0:05:59and so see little of my boy...

0:05:59 > 0:06:01to my great regret.

0:06:01 > 0:06:02You have it right, sir -

0:06:02 > 0:06:05you are too much about the King's business.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09I am merely the servant of the state.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12I was apprenticed to this trade by my father.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15It is a trade that deals in darkness.

0:06:15 > 0:06:16Well, I cannot deny it.

0:06:16 > 0:06:20Has your cousin Robert travelled out of the kingdom?

0:06:20 > 0:06:23It seems you have come to interrogate.

0:06:23 > 0:06:28Your cousin, it seems, is set on a very perilous course,

0:06:28 > 0:06:31but he may still be turned back.

0:06:31 > 0:06:35Help me to save him before it is too late.

0:06:35 > 0:06:36Tell me where he is.

0:06:47 > 0:06:51I try to see the good in men, sir,

0:06:51 > 0:06:54for that is the Lord's teaching and my poor understanding of it,

0:06:54 > 0:06:57that we all have goodness in our hearts before evil and darkness.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03But you, sir, you have racked and tortured,

0:07:03 > 0:07:07you have hunted and struck down and led the condemned to the block

0:07:07 > 0:07:10and to the stake.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14Your trade has become your life, sir -

0:07:14 > 0:07:16both are conducted in darkness.

0:07:58 > 0:07:59Yes, my lord.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07When does your father return from Brussels?

0:08:07 > 0:08:09My father is not in Brussels.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11- DOOR CLOSES - I think you are wrong, young man.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13I know he is in Brussels.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16No, sir. My father is in Spain.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27That man is a devil.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28His Excellency the Constable directed me to bring you here

0:09:28 > 0:09:31so that you might see with your own eyes...

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Foreign princes will never provide the remedy we seek.

0:11:23 > 0:11:28We must instead rouse our fellow Englishmen.

0:11:28 > 0:11:29The remedy is close.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33It is here, in our hearts...

0:11:33 > 0:11:34Aye.

0:11:34 > 0:11:38..just as it lives on in the hearts of the exiles in Flanders.

0:13:40 > 0:13:41A lawyer, I'm told.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45Aye, though not versed in argument well enough to

0:13:45 > 0:13:47turn our friends in Madrid to our purpose.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49What is your purpose?

0:13:51 > 0:13:52Well, speak freely.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55Fawkes here is my trusted confederate.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00We mean to lead the Catholics of England out of their oppression.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03How? By what means?

0:14:03 > 0:14:06If you help us raise an army for the rebellion,

0:14:06 > 0:14:09all that I need can be found freely in London.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10It is there in abundance.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Wintour, do you trust?

0:14:21 > 0:14:24With my life.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26You'll need more men for this venture.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29There are others, equal to Wintour, known to me personally

0:14:29 > 0:14:31by family and kin.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Then find them and swear them to your cause.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37I will.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41Fawkes is a man with excellent knowledge of engineering

0:14:41 > 0:14:43and fortification.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46I do not know what to make of him. The man says nothing.

0:14:46 > 0:14:47Well, that's his great strength.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50You will find him well fitted to your purpose.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53If you say he is fitted, then I will have him.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56It will not be easy, Robin.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59Cecil's espials are everywhere.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02They must not discover your design,

0:15:02 > 0:15:05or that I am gathering men to invade England in your wake.

0:15:05 > 0:15:09The sooner you strike, the more chance of success.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Then I am ready to return to England.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25My Lord, we have deciphered the Spanish letter.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Thank you, Master Alford.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31I am most grateful.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Most grateful.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39They will in no ways be soothed out but rather disturbed,

0:15:39 > 0:15:42and the end you achieve will be the opposite of that you intend.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Papists burst out of the dark corners of the land,

0:15:45 > 0:15:48infecting the godly.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50I know you have a misguided sympathy for their plight,

0:15:50 > 0:15:54my Lord Northumberland, but we promised laws against them.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58- We must now deliver on that promise or we will be utterly destroyed.- No.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00If we enforce these laws,

0:16:00 > 0:16:03then the Spanish will break off their negotiation.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07The negotiations must be brought to a good pass.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12War has emptied the Treasury.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14No, the kingdom demands peace.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17I, the King, demand peace.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21As Your Majesty knows, better than we do,

0:16:21 > 0:16:24God demands true religion.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Fortunately, my lords, we can have both -

0:16:29 > 0:16:32both peace and true religion.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35Spain does not like these laws, nor their enforcement,

0:16:35 > 0:16:40but she will sign the treaty nonetheless.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42You cannot know this.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45It is my business to know it, my lord.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49Spain will put commerce and self-interest before any imagined

0:16:49 > 0:16:51duty to the papists of England.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Then I shall have my laws against the Catholics as well...

0:17:00 > 0:17:01HE COUGHS

0:17:03 > 0:17:04..but you had best be right, my lord.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Have you read the King's proclamation?

0:17:11 > 0:17:16"Let there be no doubt, I have never at any time entertained intention of

0:17:16 > 0:17:21"tolerating their utterly abhorrent, wicked and detestable religion."

0:17:23 > 0:17:24The King's own words.

0:17:26 > 0:17:31The Parliament intends to make us capital enemies of the state.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33We are dogs to be beaten, boars to be hunted.

0:17:33 > 0:17:37We must pray that God pours his love and understanding

0:17:37 > 0:17:41into the hearts of those in Parliament who are against us.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45You...

0:17:45 > 0:17:49You... You sit there in comfort,

0:17:49 > 0:17:51secreted away from Cecil and his espials.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54You-you-you read your books, you drink your wine,

0:17:54 > 0:17:57you do not lack for meat,

0:17:57 > 0:18:00but I say that you have forgotten that outside these walls

0:18:00 > 0:18:02your flock suffers, Father Garnet.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10Spain has vowed to protect us.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12They will not allow these laws to pass.

0:18:14 > 0:18:20I saw it when poor Father Smith was brought to his Calvary.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23I saw it in your eyes then, and I see it now.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30You are a coward.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34I am not afraid to defend our faith with a strong arm.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Catesby has it right.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44I will stand with him.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51DOOR CLOSES

0:18:57 > 0:18:59You are no coward.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05But here I hide...

0:19:05 > 0:19:09with a priest-hole fashioned for my own purposes

0:19:09 > 0:19:11so that I may survive while others do not.

0:19:15 > 0:19:18You are the flame around which the faithful gather.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23That flame must be kept burning.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27I do not have your steadfast heart, Anne.

0:19:27 > 0:19:32Know you, too, that my heart is nothing like as steadfast

0:19:32 > 0:19:33as you would believe.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39You have a strong heart -

0:19:39 > 0:19:40I know it.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47It is sometimes strong, sometimes weak.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54It beats as a woman's heart beats.

0:20:07 > 0:20:11Your Majesty, Don Juan Fernandez de Velasco,

0:20:11 > 0:20:14Duke of Frias and Constable of Castile.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16Your Majesty.

0:20:18 > 0:20:19By this present,

0:20:19 > 0:20:22I'm authorised by His Catholic Majesty Philip III of Spain

0:20:22 > 0:20:26and Portugal to negotiate the treaty between our two countries.

0:20:26 > 0:20:27You are welcome, sir.

0:20:27 > 0:20:32It is my earnest hope that our work may be speedily concluded.

0:20:32 > 0:20:36Sir, His Catholic Majesty is grievously disturbed by laws

0:20:36 > 0:20:40lately proposed in your Parliament for the suppression of the faithful.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47The good and wholesome laws made in this kingdom are not

0:20:47 > 0:20:49the concern of foreign princes.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52My master is the protector of the Catholics of England.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55If the threat be not removed within five days,

0:20:55 > 0:20:57my orders are to return to Spain.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02With your permission...

0:24:25 > 0:24:29I was promised both, was I not?

0:24:29 > 0:24:32Aye, I was promised as much, Master Secretary.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Your foolishness has tangled us up.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Ah, the Constable -

0:24:56 > 0:24:58he seeks to play me.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05How could I be so deluded?

0:25:05 > 0:25:08He intended his dispatch to be read.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10To what purpose?

0:25:10 > 0:25:12To the very purpose he has now achieved.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14He has discredited me in the eyes of the King,

0:25:14 > 0:25:17who now thinks he can do without me.

0:25:17 > 0:25:21If I am removed, Spain will outwit our negotiators

0:25:21 > 0:25:24and have terms all to their advantage.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Go you privately to the Constable.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32If I were to be seen with the Constable,

0:25:32 > 0:25:34our enemies would cry treason.

0:25:35 > 0:25:39Then take pains to ensure you are unseen.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13be put aside.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Then the treaty must fail.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19I say it must not.

0:26:19 > 0:26:25We both, Spain and England, you and I, have need of this treaty.

0:26:25 > 0:26:30Do you have in mind some compensation, sir?

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Your ships, when they venture into our waters,

0:26:32 > 0:26:35are attacked and often destroyed.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38We would allow your vessels not only free access to the Channel

0:26:38 > 0:26:43but use of our seaports to refit, shelter and buy provisions.

0:26:43 > 0:26:44Merchantmen?

0:26:44 > 0:26:46And warships.

0:26:50 > 0:26:54This is something Spain has proposed many times before.

0:26:54 > 0:26:55We have always been refused.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58This time, sir, I can ensure it is agreed.

0:26:58 > 0:27:01However, in return for these articles,

0:27:01 > 0:27:06Spain must renounce her claim to protect the Catholics of England.

0:27:10 > 0:27:14I understand the King lately has occasion to be displeased with you,

0:27:14 > 0:27:16My Lord.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18How may I be certain of these articles?

0:27:20 > 0:27:22The little game you devised, sir,

0:27:22 > 0:27:26has indeed placed me in a difficult position,

0:27:26 > 0:27:29but I know the King and will recover the trust

0:27:29 > 0:27:32that you hoodwinked from him.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36However, I shall have to bring him something.

0:27:40 > 0:27:41What do you have in mind?
