Every papist in the kingdom is a potential traitor.

0:00:020:00:04

They must be watched and made to answer for their crimes.

0:00:040:00:06

What you propose, sir, is a recipe for rebellion.

0:00:060:00:08

On the contrary, my Lord Northumberland,

0:00:080:00:10

it is a recipe to avoid rebellion.

0:00:100:00:12

My sister was crushed like a seed...

0:00:120:00:14

BONES CRACK, SHE GROANS AND CROWD CHEERS

0:00:140:00:16

..my brother butchered like a hog.

0:00:160:00:18

HE GROANS

0:00:180:00:19

They will be revenged.

0:00:190:00:20

The sword plays no part in what we do.

0:00:200:00:22

Can His Majesty not see the danger the kingdom is in?

0:00:220:00:24

Flanders is where these dangerous spirits are gathered.

0:00:240:00:28

My name is Guy Fawkes.

0:00:280:00:31

FLESH SQUELCHES

0:00:310:00:32

Nothing to do with desperate men.

0:00:320:00:34

I am...a desperate man.

0:00:340:00:37

CHANTING IN LATIN

0:01:230:01:25

Gentlemen, His Excellency the Constable of Castile.

0:01:440:01:48

CHANTING CONTINUES

0:01:490:01:51

HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:01:540:01:56

Your Excellency, I am Robert Catesby.

0:01:560:01:58

His Excellency knows who you are, Master Catesby. State your purpose.

0:01:580:02:02

My purpose is to kill the King of England.

0:02:040:02:08

In our country, as Catholics, we are hunted,

0:02:080:02:12

imprisoned, fined,

0:02:120:02:15

banished, tortured and hanged.

0:02:150:02:17

Kings are anointed of God.

0:02:190:02:20

James is a pretended king, and a tyrant.

0:02:200:02:25

God alone disposes of Kings, good or bad.

0:02:250:02:28

Help us, Excellency. Spain is our only hope.

0:02:280:02:32

How would you have Spain help you?

0:02:360:02:37

Send us soldiers.

0:02:390:02:42

Send us arms and horses that we may restore the true faith.

0:02:420:02:46

The treaty that is presently under negotiation between

0:02:460:02:48

His Catholic Majesty King Philip and King James of England

0:02:480:02:52

will see an end to your persecution.

0:02:520:02:55

Before any treaty is signed, we will be overpowered and uprooted.

0:02:550:02:59

We will be utterly destroyed.

0:03:010:03:03

I beg you, Excellency,

0:03:040:03:08

do not suffer this to happen.

0:03:080:03:10

CHANTING CONTINUES

0:03:130:03:15

We will consider your petition.

0:03:220:03:23

Sir, if you saw what I have seen,

0:03:270:03:29

you would not weep tears of pity and rage,

0:03:290:03:31

though your eyes would be pricked and red -

0:03:310:03:35

you would reach for your sword, as I reach for mine.

0:03:350:03:39

I have news of Catesby.

0:03:580:04:01

He was seen in the company of his cousin Wintour,

0:04:010:04:03

and also with Jack Wright.

0:04:030:04:06

Catesby, Wintour and Wright - that is a dangerous pack.

0:04:060:04:10

Where are they now?

0:04:100:04:11

Well, Wright has returned to Yorkshire,

0:04:110:04:13

but Catesby and Wintour have not been seen since.

0:04:130:04:15

Instruct the searchers at the ports to keep a lookout for

0:04:150:04:19

Catesby and his cousin.

0:04:190:04:21

Have them closely watched.

0:04:210:04:23

If they are trying to join Stanley's exiles in Brussels,

0:04:230:04:26

I want to know about it.

HE SPEAKS LATIN

0:04:400:04:42

Very good.

0:04:450:04:47

SHE CONTINUES RECITING IN LATIN

0:04:470:04:49

Good day, madam.

0:04:530:04:55

What a splendid house.

0:04:570:04:59

I had not expected anything so beautiful.

0:04:590:05:03

Perhaps a little barren.

0:05:050:05:06

We have you to thank for our barrenness, sir.

0:05:060:05:09

What a wonderful inheritance.

0:05:110:05:13

I congratulate you on your great good fortune.

0:05:130:05:16

-Get you gone, sir...

-Elizabeth.

BOY LAUGHS

0:05:360:05:38

The boy's father is not at home.

0:05:380:05:41

Have you come all this way to put me to interrogation?

0:05:410:05:44

I ask not as the King's secretary, but as a neglectful father.

0:05:440:05:49

I have a son of my own, William,

0:05:490:05:52

but I am too much about the King's business

0:05:520:05:55

and so see little of my boy...

0:05:550:05:59

to my great regret.

0:05:590:06:01

You have it right, sir -

0:06:010:06:02

you are too much about the King's business.

0:06:020:06:05

I am merely the servant of the state.

0:06:070:06:09

I was apprenticed to this trade by my father.

0:06:090:06:12

It is a trade that deals in darkness.

0:06:120:06:15

Well, I cannot deny it.

0:06:150:06:16

Has your cousin Robert travelled out of the kingdom?

0:06:160:06:20

It seems you have come to interrogate.

0:06:200:06:23

Your cousin, it seems, is set on a very perilous course,

0:06:230:06:28

but he may still be turned back.

0:06:280:06:31

Help me to save him before it is too late.

0:06:310:06:35

Tell me where he is.

0:06:350:06:36

BALL ROLLS

0:06:390:06:41

I try to see the good in men, sir,

0:06:470:06:51

for that is the Lord's teaching and my poor understanding of it,

0:06:510:06:54

that we all have goodness in our hearts before evil and darkness.

0:06:540:06:57

But you, sir, you have racked and tortured,

0:06:590:07:03

you have hunted and struck down and led the condemned to the block

0:07:030:07:07

and to the stake.

0:07:070:07:10

Your trade has become your life, sir -

0:07:100:07:14

both are conducted in darkness.

Ready my horse.

0:07:550:07:58

Yes, my lord.

0:07:580:07:59

When does your father return from Brussels?

0:08:040:08:07

My father is not in Brussels.

-DOOR CLOSES

-I think you are wrong, young man.

0:08:090:08:11

I know he is in Brussels.

0:08:110:08:13

No, sir. My father is in Spain.

0:08:130:08:16

Why have you brought us here?

0:09:230:09:25

His Excellency the Constable directed me to bring you here

0:09:250:09:28

so that you might see with your own eyes...

0:09:280:09:31

0:09:310:09:32

A Jew.

0:09:450:09:46

Those who do not confess die by fire.

0:09:480:09:52

Will Spain help us, yes or no?

0:09:520:09:55

Spain cannot support your design.

0:09:580:10:01

WOMAN WHIMPERS

0:10:010:10:03

Spain would have a Protestant king on the throne?

0:10:030:10:06

Spain would have a king who would negotiate.

20 years is a long time to be at war.

WOMAN SCREAMS

0:10:110:10:13

Have faith in Spain, gentlemen.

0:10:130:10:15

She will protect you,

0:10:150:10:17

as she protects, by these means, the faithful in her own land.

No, we erred to come here.

0:11:150:11:17

Mm-hm.

0:11:170:11:20

Foreign princes will never provide the remedy we seek.

0:11:200:11:23

We must instead rouse our fellow Englishmen.

0:11:230:11:28

The remedy is close.

0:11:280:11:29

It is here, in our hearts...

0:11:290:11:33

Aye.

0:11:330:11:34

..just as it lives on in the hearts of the exiles in Flanders.

0:11:340:11:38

Come, we have work to do.

The searchers at Dover intercepted it this morning.

0:12:170:12:20

Make haste, Master Alford.

0:12:360:12:37

Break the Constable's cipher,

0:13:270:13:29

I see in the son the father I once knew.

0:13:290:13:31

Tom Wintour, my cousin.

0:13:370:13:40

A lawyer, I'm told.

0:13:400:13:41

Aye, though not versed in argument well enough to

0:13:410:13:45

turn our friends in Madrid to our purpose.

0:13:450:13:47

What is your purpose?

0:13:470:13:49

Well, speak freely.

0:13:510:13:52

Fawkes here is my trusted confederate.

0:13:520:13:55

We mean to lead the Catholics of England out of their oppression.

0:13:560:14:00

How? By what means?

0:14:000:14:03

If you help us raise an army for the rebellion,

0:14:030:14:06

all that I need can be found freely in London.

0:14:060:14:09

It is there in abundance.

0:14:090:14:10

Gunpowder.

0:14:140:14:15

Wintour, do you trust?

0:14:190:14:21

With my life.

0:14:210:14:24

You'll need more men for this venture.

0:14:240:14:26

There are others, equal to Wintour, known to me personally

0:14:260:14:29

by family and kin.

0:14:290:14:31

Then find them and swear them to your cause.

0:14:310:14:34

I will.

0:14:340:14:37

Fawkes is a man with excellent knowledge of engineering

0:14:370:14:41

and fortification.

0:14:410:14:43

I do not know what to make of him. The man says nothing.

0:14:430:14:46

Well, that's his great strength.

0:14:460:14:47

You will find him well fitted to your purpose.

0:14:470:14:50

If you say he is fitted, then I will have him.

0:14:500:14:53

It will not be easy, Robin.

0:14:530:14:56

Cecil's espials are everywhere.

0:14:560:14:59

They must not discover your design,

0:14:590:15:02

or that I am gathering men to invade England in your wake.

0:15:020:15:05

The sooner you strike, the more chance of success.

0:15:050:15:09

Then I am ready to return to England.

0:15:120:15:14

My Lord, we have deciphered the Spanish letter.

0:15:210:15:25

Thank you, Master Alford.

0:15:250:15:27

I am most grateful.

0:15:290:15:31

Most grateful.

0:15:340:15:36

They will in no ways be soothed out but rather disturbed,

0:15:360:15:39

and the end you achieve will be the opposite of that you intend.

0:15:390:15:42

Papists burst out of the dark corners of the land,

0:15:420:15:45

infecting the godly.

0:15:450:15:48

I know you have a misguided sympathy for their plight,

0:15:480:15:50

my Lord Northumberland, but we promised laws against them.

0:15:500:15:54

-We must now deliver on that promise or we will be utterly destroyed.

-No.

0:15:540:15:58

If we enforce these laws,

0:15:580:16:00

then the Spanish will break off their negotiation.

0:16:000:16:03

The negotiations must be brought to a good pass.

0:16:030:16:07

War has emptied the Treasury.

0:16:090:16:12

No, the kingdom demands peace.

0:16:120:16:14

I, the King, demand peace.

0:16:140:16:17

As Your Majesty knows, better than we do,

0:16:170:16:21

God demands true religion.

0:16:210:16:24

Fortunately, my lords, we can have both -

0:16:270:16:29

both peace and true religion.

0:16:290:16:32

Spain does not like these laws, nor their enforcement,

0:16:320:16:35

but she will sign the treaty nonetheless.

0:16:350:16:40

You cannot know this.

0:16:400:16:42

It is my business to know it, my lord.

0:16:420:16:45

Spain will put commerce and self-interest before any imagined

0:16:450:16:49

duty to the papists of England.

0:16:490:16:51

Then I shall have my laws against the Catholics as well...

0:16:550:16:58

HE COUGHS

0:17:000:17:01

..but you had best be right, my lord.

0:17:030:17:04

Have you read the King's proclamation?

0:17:090:17:11

"Let there be no doubt, I have never at any time entertained intention of

0:17:110:17:16

"tolerating their utterly abhorrent, wicked and detestable religion."

0:17:160:17:21

The King's own words.

0:17:230:17:24

The Parliament intends to make us capital enemies of the state.

0:17:260:17:31

We are dogs to be beaten, boars to be hunted.

0:17:310:17:33

We must pray that God pours his love and understanding

0:17:330:17:37

into the hearts of those in Parliament who are against us.

0:17:370:17:41

You...

0:17:430:17:45

You... You sit there in comfort,

0:17:450:17:49

secreted away from Cecil and his espials.

0:17:490:17:51

You-you-you read your books, you drink your wine,

0:17:510:17:54

you do not lack for meat,

0:17:540:17:57

but I say that you have forgotten that outside these walls

0:17:570:18:00

your flock suffers, Father Garnet.

0:18:000:18:02

Spain has vowed to protect us.

0:18:060:18:10

They will not allow these laws to pass.

0:18:100:18:12

I saw it when poor Father Smith was brought to his Calvary.

0:18:140:18:20

I saw it in your eyes then, and I see it now.

0:18:200:18:23

You are a coward.

0:18:270:18:30

I am not afraid to defend our faith with a strong arm.

0:18:300:18:34

Catesby has it right.

0:18:380:18:40

I will stand with him.

0:18:420:18:44

DOOR CLOSES

0:18:490:18:51

You are no coward.

0:18:570:18:59

But here I hide...

0:19:010:19:05

with a priest-hole fashioned for my own purposes

0:19:050:19:09

so that I may survive while others do not.

0:19:090:19:11

You are the flame around which the faithful gather.

0:19:150:19:18

That flame must be kept burning.

0:19:210:19:23

I do not have your steadfast heart, Anne.

0:19:230:19:27

Know you, too, that my heart is nothing like as steadfast

0:19:270:19:32

as you would believe.

0:19:320:19:33

You have a strong heart -

0:19:360:19:39

I know it.

0:19:390:19:40

It is sometimes strong, sometimes weak.

0:19:430:19:47

It beats as a woman's heart beats.

0:19:520:19:54

Your Majesty, Don Juan Fernandez de Velasco,

0:20:070:20:11

Duke of Frias and Constable of Castile.

0:20:110:20:14

Your Majesty.

0:20:140:20:16

By this present,

0:20:180:20:19

I'm authorised by His Catholic Majesty Philip III of Spain

0:20:190:20:22

and Portugal to negotiate the treaty between our two countries.

0:20:220:20:26

You are welcome, sir.

0:20:260:20:27

It is my earnest hope that our work may be speedily concluded.

0:20:270:20:32

Sir, His Catholic Majesty is grievously disturbed by laws

0:20:320:20:36

lately proposed in your Parliament for the suppression of the faithful.

0:20:360:20:40

The good and wholesome laws made in this kingdom are not

0:20:430:20:47

the concern of foreign princes.

0:20:470:20:49

My master is the protector of the Catholics of England.

0:20:490:20:52

If the threat be not removed within five days,

0:20:520:20:55

my orders are to return to Spain.

0:20:550:20:57

With your permission...

0:21:010:21:02

You all know me.

I am Robert Catesby. I am a loyal son of the one true church.

0:21:180:21:23

I will see her restored or I will die in the attempt.

0:21:230:21:26

I am Thomas Wintour....

0:21:290:21:31

..and I am willing to die for the one true faith.

0:21:350:21:37

I am Jack Wright. I pledge my life to this enterprise.

0:21:390:21:44

May God bless us.

0:21:440:21:46

I am Thomas Percy.

0:21:460:21:49

I will give everything I have, my fortune and my life,

0:21:490:21:53

to see the tyrant gone.

0:21:530:21:55

I've changed my name as often as I have my coat.

0:22:030:22:05

Lately I'm called John Johnson.

0:22:080:22:09

Will you swear, sir, as we have, each of us?

0:22:150:22:18

God knows I'm his servant.

0:22:200:22:22

He's heard 1,000 times...

0:22:240:22:26

all he needs to hear from me.

0:22:260:22:28

I have not heard it.

0:22:340:22:35

I make the same oath as you...

0:22:550:22:57

..and to the same end.

0:23:000:23:02

0:23:090:23:11

You will all have heard of Father Gerard -

0:23:210:23:23

a more staunch defender of the faith you will not find.

0:23:230:23:25

He now stands with us.

0:23:250:23:26

Lord, govern and protect these men in their holy work.

0:23:460:23:50

We ask this in the name of our one and only Lord and saviour,

0:23:500:23:54

Jesus Christ. Amen.

0:23:540:23:56

-Amen.

-Amen.

-Amen.

0:23:560:23:57

No cause to question the veracity of my source...

0:24:010:24:03

You overreached yourself, my Lord Cecil.

0:24:030:24:05

You are distracting the King! HE THUMPS TABLE

0:24:050:24:07

I shall not choose between one course and the other.

0:24:070:24:13

I say I shall have both the good and necessary laws to

0:24:130:24:17

keep the Catholics in their place, and my treaty with Spain.

0:24:170:24:22

I was promised both, was I not?

0:24:250:24:29

Aye, I was promised as much, Master Secretary.

0:24:290:24:32

Your foolishness has tangled us up.

0:24:320:24:35

If you have not undone the knot by the time I open the Parliament,

0:24:380:24:42

I will find one who can.

0:24:420:24:43

Ah, the Constable -

0:24:540:24:56

he seeks to play me.

0:24:560:24:58

How could I be so deluded?

0:25:020:25:05

He intended his dispatch to be read.

0:25:050:25:08

To what purpose?

0:25:080:25:10

To the very purpose he has now achieved.

0:25:100:25:12

He has discredited me in the eyes of the King,

0:25:120:25:14

who now thinks he can do without me.

0:25:140:25:17

If I am removed, Spain will outwit our negotiators

0:25:170:25:21

and have terms all to their advantage.

0:25:210:25:24

Go you privately to the Constable.

0:25:260:25:29

If I were to be seen with the Constable,

0:25:290:25:32

our enemies would cry treason.

0:25:320:25:34

Then take pains to ensure you are unseen.

0:25:350:25:39

Tell the Constable I am desirous of having private conference with him

0:25:390:25:43

at his earliest convenience.

0:25:430:25:45

BIRDSONG

0:25:540:25:57

My master will not countenance that the laws against the papists

0:26:080:26:11

be put aside.

0:26:110:26:13

Then the treaty must fail.

0:26:130:26:16

I say it must not.

0:26:160:26:19

We both, Spain and England, you and I, have need of this treaty.

0:26:190:26:25

Do you have in mind some compensation, sir?

0:26:250:26:30

Your ships, when they venture into our waters,

0:26:300:26:32

are attacked and often destroyed.

0:26:320:26:35

We would allow your vessels not only free access to the Channel

0:26:350:26:38

but use of our seaports to refit, shelter and buy provisions.

0:26:380:26:43

Merchantmen?

0:26:430:26:44

And warships.

0:26:440:26:46

This is something Spain has proposed many times before.

0:26:500:26:54

We have always been refused.

0:26:540:26:55

This time, sir, I can ensure it is agreed.

0:26:550:26:58

However, in return for these articles,

0:26:580:27:01

Spain must renounce her claim to protect the Catholics of England.

0:27:010:27:06

I understand the King lately has occasion to be displeased with you,

0:27:100:27:14

My Lord.

0:27:140:27:16

How may I be certain of these articles?

0:27:160:27:18

The little game you devised, sir,

0:27:200:27:22

has indeed placed me in a difficult position,

0:27:220:27:26

but I know the King and will recover the trust

0:27:260:27:29

that you hoodwinked from him.

0:27:290:27:32

However, I shall have to bring him something.

0:27:330:27:36

What do you have in mind?

0:27:400:27:41

It will have to be generous.

20 of my own household,

0:28:480:28:49

and another 50 working and living on my lands,

0:28:490:28:52

but they are loyal to the true church and will follow where I lead.

0:28:520:28:55

My brother Robert, he's promised us 30 men more.

0:28:550:28:58

Rookwood, Keyes and Grant say they can muster another 20 each.

0:28:580:29:03

Wright has sworn his brother Kit to our cause also.

0:29:030:29:05

On Tuesday next, the King, his councillors,

0:29:080:29:11

all the Commons and the Lords will be utterly obliterated.

0:29:110:29:14

Our army will march on Coombe Abbey.

0:29:140:29:15

We will seize the King's daughter, the Princess Elizabeth,

0:29:150:29:18

and we will place the child upon the throne.

0:29:180:29:20

Northumberland shall be lord protector.

0:29:200:29:22

Northumberland has joined us?

0:29:220:29:23

Percy is his kinsman and is confident that,

0:29:230:29:25

once we strike the blow,

0:29:250:29:28

Northumberland will take up his sword.

0:29:280:29:29

And where the Earl leads,

0:29:340:29:37

England's Catholics will rise up as one man.

0:29:370:29:42

We will sweep aside this heretic tyranny

0:29:420:29:45

and restore the England of happier times.

0:30:220:30:24

I...

0:30:290:30:32

Since Christmas last.

0:30:320:30:34

Who told you you could sleep in here?

0:30:380:30:39

My grandmother, sir.

0:30:390:30:42

She had no right.

0:30:420:30:43

This is the bed in which your mother died.

0:30:450:30:48

I have not been the man I should have been.

I have not been the father you deserve. I...

0:31:200:31:22

I have not known how.

0:31:250:31:26

CATESBY TAKES A DEEP BREATH

0:31:500:31:52

You have so much of your mother in you.

0:32:040:32:07

She would have taught me how to hold you, how to protect you.

0:32:110:32:14

That is all I have ever wanted -

0:32:140:32:18

to see you safe and happy, to see you prosper.

0:32:340:32:38

all is to that end.

0:32:380:32:39

Ill-favoured indeed,

thus perfectly well fitted for those who gather here,

0:34:150:34:20

for they are a disorderly and unseemly lot,

0:34:200:34:24

the Parliament men,

0:34:240:34:26

and the things that they say about me,

0:34:260:34:30

no king anywhere has to suffer such disrespect.

0:34:300:34:34

If they should dare speak insolently of you,

0:34:350:34:37

I shall not be able to sit still.

0:34:370:34:39

Do not worry, Philip.

0:34:440:34:46

Here, on Tuesday, you will see how a king governs.

0:34:460:34:53

You will see the Parliament men, and the dukes,

0:34:530:34:57

and the earls and the lords lower their faces before me.

0:34:570:35:01

They bow to me.

0:35:030:35:04

There is clear passage to the river for transportation of goods?

0:35:160:35:19

Aye, by the Parliament stairs.

0:35:190:35:22

My servant, John Johnson...

0:35:260:35:27

I shall take it.

0:35:330:35:34

I'm afraid that's still not possible, sir. I've...

0:35:340:35:36

I've already agreed the lease of it.

0:35:360:35:39

Break it.

0:35:390:35:40

I shall pay £4 for the lease.

0:35:400:35:42

My husband's brother, he's a coal merchant

0:35:420:35:44

and has most urgent need of it...

0:35:440:35:46

I say, I shall take it, Mistress Wynyard,

0:35:460:35:48

on behalf of my patron, the Earl of Northumberland.

0:35:480:35:51

£4 for the lease,

0:35:550:35:57

and, to compensate your inconvenience...

0:35:570:36:01

another ten shillings.

My Lord.

0:36:550:36:56

I have someone you will want to see.

0:36:560:36:58

They ascended the stairs to the private rooms.

0:37:020:37:05

They had their hats pulled low around their faces

0:37:050:37:07

but I recognised three of their number.

0:37:070:37:09

Who did you see?

0:37:090:37:10

My Lord, I did see Robert Catesby, Thomas Wintour and Jack Wright.

0:37:100:37:14

Did you hear anything of their conference?

0:37:140:37:16

Very little, sir.

0:37:160:37:17

They went to their room as soon as they entered.

0:37:170:37:19

They are still there?!

0:37:190:37:20

That's the last I saw.

0:37:200:37:22

I came straight to Sir William when...

0:37:220:37:23

But I was promised payment!

0:37:230:37:25

Pay him half rate.

0:37:350:37:37

Is he with us?

0:37:370:37:38

The Earl is a cautious man.

0:37:390:37:41

But I know my kinsman.

0:37:410:37:42

Once the deed is done, he will step forward to lead our cause.

0:37:430:37:46

And the powder?

0:37:460:37:47

We shall need £3,000.

0:37:470:37:49

4,000.

0:37:490:37:50

To be sure.

0:37:510:37:52

To be transported by tunnel?

0:37:550:37:57

That'll take too long.

0:37:570:37:58
