0:00:07 > 0:00:08You're the Renko that got stabbed, right?

0:00:08 > 0:00:10- Hello, Daniel.- Hello, Mum.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14We have just been told to withdraw the surveillance.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17Jesus, what is on that flash drive?

0:00:18 > 0:00:21- Yeah, but how long does it say we've got?- Five years.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23I need to talk to my wife.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24Charlie, is that you?

0:00:24 > 0:00:25Who is this?

0:00:25 > 0:00:27I think you know who we are.

0:00:28 > 0:00:33- Is it true?- Yes. Which is why I'm asking you to help me.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35I need that flash drive.

0:00:35 > 0:00:36No.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59He's gone back to the public call box on Exeter Place.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Hicks' residence.

0:01:07 > 0:01:08I haven't got it.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11I'm sorry? Is that Charlie?

0:01:11 > 0:01:15Can you say that again? The line's bad.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Renko took it. It's gone.

0:01:19 > 0:01:20Well, Charlie.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23I don't know what to say.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25If that's the case...

0:01:25 > 0:01:28then I really can't help you.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31I'm sorry.

0:02:00 > 0:02:01TASER BUZZES

0:02:13 > 0:02:15I'm looking for Will Benedetti on news.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17- Oh, yeah, he's just over there. - Thank you.

0:02:21 > 0:02:22Will Benedetti?

0:02:25 > 0:02:26DI Renko. We spoke.

0:02:28 > 0:02:29Can we talk somewhere private?

0:02:44 > 0:02:45No...

0:03:00 > 0:03:01Christ!

0:03:12 > 0:03:14I don't get it. Why come to me?

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Your name's on the website. You answered the phone.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23So you need to listen. Really listen to what I'm saying.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27They're killing everyone who's seen it. Everyone. Which means you.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32So if you want to protect yourself, you need to run the story.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41OK. OK, I can...I can do it. I can do that.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44But I'm going to need the full dossier, everything you've got.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47I can't do that. I need to hold something back.

0:03:47 > 0:03:48But I can give you enough.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15I need to retrieve the Hard Sun file.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18You have a copy on a flash drive.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20I need you to tell me where it is.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23I already told them 100 times.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28Elaine...Renko took it.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Took it where?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33My name is Elaine Renko.

0:04:33 > 0:04:37If you are watching this, I've been murdered by the British state.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40During the course of a recent investigation,

0:04:40 > 0:04:43my colleague DCI Charlie Hicks and I came into contact with

0:04:43 > 0:04:47a classified government file, code-named Hard Sun.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50I know you love your family, Charlie.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52So as a mother...

0:04:52 > 0:04:55and a daughter...

0:04:59 > 0:05:01..please don't make me do this.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10Where's Elaine Renko?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12I don't know.

0:05:14 > 0:05:15I see.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18Come on, now. Just stop it. Turn it off!

0:05:18 > 0:05:20It's not like you're giving me any choice, Charlie.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24If I don't get back that file, can you imagine what will happen next?

0:05:24 > 0:05:27The anarchy? Come on!

0:05:29 > 0:05:32Why would you unleash that?

0:05:32 > 0:05:33Help me.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36Please...

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Help Simone and Hailey.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44And if not, then for God's sake you help your baby.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48Tell me where to find Elaine!

0:05:53 > 0:05:56I...can't!

0:05:58 > 0:05:59Start with the wife.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08PHONE RINGS

0:06:09 > 0:06:10Simone Hicks?

0:06:10 > 0:06:14Mrs Hicks, this is Detective Chief Superintendent Mark Donnellan.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16What's wrong? Is Charlie OK?

0:06:16 > 0:06:18You leave her alone.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21She...she's pregnant!

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Not for long.

0:06:23 > 0:06:25Simone Hicks?

0:06:25 > 0:06:27DS Angie Jones. You spoke to my colleague.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29What's going on?

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Can you come with us, please?

0:06:31 > 0:06:34We need to talk about Charlie. It won't take a moment.

0:06:40 > 0:06:41What's going on?

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Is Charlie OK?

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- All right, that's-that's enough! - Where's the flash drive?

0:06:46 > 0:06:49I sent Elaine to a dead drop. Call it off.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52- What dead drop?- Call it off! - Where?

0:06:52 > 0:06:54A loose brick in an alley. Now call it off!

0:06:54 > 0:06:56What alley?

0:06:56 > 0:07:00Behind the anarchist book shop in Stroud Green! Now call it OFF!!!

0:07:00 > 0:07:02You're lying, Charlie.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Where are we going?

0:07:14 > 0:07:15YOU LEAVE HER ALONE!

0:07:15 > 0:07:17TELL ME WHERE IT IS!

0:07:17 > 0:07:19I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT IS!

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Last chance!

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Simone's dead.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27You are watching her die! You are killing your baby!

0:07:27 > 0:07:30HE ROARS Do it.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Be alert, we have an incoming Code Yellow.

0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Stand down!- Code yellow, incoming. - Stand down!

0:07:39 > 0:07:43In order to protect myself, DCI Hicks and our loved ones...

0:07:43 > 0:07:47I've made a partial version of the Hard Sun dossier available

0:07:47 > 0:07:48to a newspaper of record.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51- What newspaper? Trace it! - I'm already on it.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53The state will do its best to suppress

0:07:53 > 0:07:54the release of this information.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Anticipating this,

0:07:56 > 0:08:00a full copy of the Hard Sun dossier will be kept with this statement.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02The flash drive was accessed here.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06This dossier contains a complete record

0:08:06 > 0:08:09of the British State's Civil Defence Emergency Planning

0:08:09 > 0:08:11related to the Hard Sun event...

0:08:11 > 0:08:13This is a police raid.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16Do not touch your mobile phones, do not touch your computers.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18..including plans for dissident control,

0:08:18 > 0:08:21- the imposition of martial law... - Where's Will Benedetti?

0:08:21 > 0:08:23..and provisions currently under way for the establishment

0:08:23 > 0:08:25of internment camps.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28If any harm should come to me,

0:08:28 > 0:08:31to DCI Hicks or to any of our loved ones,

0:08:31 > 0:08:34this statement and the complete Hard Sun dossier will then be

0:08:34 > 0:08:38released to the media and the internet and would be undeniable.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Whatever you read, remember, I have much more.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43CAR HORN BLARES

0:10:39 > 0:10:42This has been described as "possibly the greatest hoax

0:10:42 > 0:10:46"of its kind since the Hitler Diaries."

0:10:46 > 0:10:48How do you feel about that?

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Well, obviously not great.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55Look, the truth is I was offered something too good to be true.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00But in the moment, I had to balance urgency and time pressure

0:11:00 > 0:11:03against what I considered to be the public's right to know.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06So I made a call.

0:11:06 > 0:11:10And in retrospect, do you think you made the right call?

0:11:11 > 0:11:15Well, it was a call that cost me my career and my reputation,

0:11:15 > 0:11:18if that answers your question?

0:11:18 > 0:11:21Will Benedetti, thank you for being on Hard Talk.

0:11:22 > 0:11:28Perhaps inevitably, despite or maybe because of these disavowals,

0:11:28 > 0:11:32the Hard Sun hoax has given rise to its own so-called

0:11:32 > 0:11:34"Truther" movement.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37On certain corners of the internet, you can

0:11:37 > 0:11:41find as many conspiracy theories as there are stars in the sky.

0:11:41 > 0:11:46Did the now discredited file refer to a meteor? Or a comet?

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Or, perhaps a catastrophic solar storm?

0:11:49 > 0:11:51- Daniel...- Well, that's it...

0:11:51 > 0:11:54You know it's after hours. Back to bed, please.

0:11:54 > 0:11:55Thanks for watching.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09Every government agency is preparing for the Hard Sun...

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Humanity's days on Earth are numbered.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15We have 1,800 days,

0:12:15 > 0:12:19and our governments are spending those days lying to us.

0:12:19 > 0:12:24The first question to ask is - would the Government lie to you?

0:12:24 > 0:12:27And the answer is of course.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29As far as our governments are concerned,

0:12:29 > 0:12:32this topic must remain above Top Secret.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36Reality is broken, the truth must be hidden.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38And the masses need a teaching

0:12:38 > 0:12:41proportional to their limited knowledge.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43These fictions are necessary for the people,

0:12:43 > 0:12:46and the truth becomes deadly to those whom

0:12:46 > 0:12:49they believe are not strong enough to contemplate it.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54They're doing it, them in there. MI5.

0:12:54 > 0:12:58They take the truth and fold it into whatever shape they want.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01They turn a leak into a conspiracy theory.

0:13:01 > 0:13:02It's like, I don't know, origami.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Nah, nah.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07They think they've got it all sealed off, but they're wrong.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12It's out of the box, and you can't put it back.

0:13:12 > 0:13:13DOOR OPENS

0:13:16 > 0:13:19You see, the people who believe in it,

0:13:19 > 0:13:22all the freaks and the nutters, the religious fanatics

0:13:22 > 0:13:24and the psychos,

0:13:24 > 0:13:26they're all going to come crawling out the woodwork.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31SHE SCREAMS

0:13:34 > 0:13:37You know, it just makes my head hurt.

0:13:37 > 0:13:41You know, I feel like I've got to just cram it all in.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44It's just like I'm forcing myself to remember everything, you know,

0:13:44 > 0:13:46every detail.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Cos I know that soon, it's going to be gone.

0:13:49 > 0:13:52I mean, all you want to do is protect the people that you love.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54So how are you supposed to deal with it, knowing that you can't?

0:13:54 > 0:13:57All right, knowing that no-one can? Ever.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02Five years.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05What's the point?

0:14:05 > 0:14:10What's the point? The point is - everything you love is here now.

0:14:14 > 0:14:15That is all that matters.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22The funny thing is, is that there's only one person that

0:14:22 > 0:14:24I can talk to about this on this entire planet.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27And that's you.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31I mean, I am lying to everyone on this Earth...

0:14:33 > 0:14:35..but you...

0:14:49 > 0:14:51KNOCKING

0:15:09 > 0:15:11You shouldn't come here.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12It's not being watched.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14That you know of.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Did he tell you his wife left him?

0:15:20 > 0:15:21No.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Of course he didn't. No.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26So what is taking so long?

0:15:26 > 0:15:31Lack of evidence. There's nothing to suggest that Hicks killed Butler.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34- He's sleeping with the man's wife. - That's motive, not evidence.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Then find some evidence.

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Honestly, what does it matter?

0:15:37 > 0:15:40In your head, you've already convicted him.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42It matters because we cut you a deal!

0:15:43 > 0:15:46We keep your son out of prison, you bring us Charlie Hicks.

0:15:48 > 0:15:49Are we clear?

0:16:11 > 0:16:14PHONE RINGS

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Sorry, Dad. It's Charlie.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Erm...you carry on watching.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34- Hey. It's really late. - Oh, I know, I'm...

0:16:34 > 0:16:37I'm sorry. I got caught up with something.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39How's Hailey?

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Yeah, she's great.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44Oh, she did have another barney with Rochelle, though.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Oh? What about?

0:16:46 > 0:16:47Whether God has a willy?

0:16:47 > 0:16:50Apparently, he doesn't because he's not a boy.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52That's good to know.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57How are you? Hm? How's the bump?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01- She's kicking right now, actually. - Yeah?

0:17:02 > 0:17:05Well, you know why that is, don't you?

0:17:05 > 0:17:07She wants to come home.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09We'll come home when you tell me what's going on.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12- Hey. Nothing's going on! - So who were those people?

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Look, I told you. They were... They were coppers, all right?

0:17:15 > 0:17:18They were police. Look, how many times?

0:17:18 > 0:17:21Look, there was a threat to my life, and for about five minutes,

0:17:21 > 0:17:24it seemed credible. But it was nothing.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Look, Simone, I don't know what else to say.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Huh? The kids are safe.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34And you're safe. And we're all safe.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Look, erm... I've got to go.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51Hailey's going to call you tomorrow.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54She wants to talk to you about her project. It's about spiders.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Yeah, yeah, OK.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03Listen, erm, give my love to your mum and dad, yeah?

0:18:03 > 0:18:06Good night, Charlie.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Go and kiss Hailey for me.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14And the bump. Give the bump a kiss.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16The bump says good night.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19All right, good night.

0:18:37 > 0:18:38KNOCKING

0:18:46 > 0:18:49Charlie, it's late.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55BUZZ

0:20:06 > 0:20:07Hello, mate.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10What are you doing up?

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Erm, er, rowing practice.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15- Rowing?- Yeah.

0:20:15 > 0:20:16Oh, since when?

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Since, like, a term or something?

0:20:18 > 0:20:22Oh! You, er, you had a proper breakfast?

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Not yet.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Right, how about I do you some eggs and then I give you a lift?

0:20:28 > 0:20:30- How's that?- Yeah. Yeah...

0:20:32 > 0:20:34All right, good man, come on.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44- Morning.- Morning.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49You all right, boss?

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Sorry. Bit of a scare with the baby.

0:20:51 > 0:20:52No! Everything all right?

0:20:52 > 0:20:55Yeah, false alarm. Braxton Hicks.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57- Ah. - It's a bit early for that, innit?

0:20:57 > 0:20:59No, they can come at six weeks, Braxton Hicks.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02- Says Keith, father of hundreds.- Six.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Six?!- Yeah, we live in a shoe.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Simone all right, though?

0:21:07 > 0:21:10She's fine, mate. You know how it is.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Right, let's, er, let's do this. What we got?

0:21:24 > 0:21:28Dominic Vaughan and Sabina Kesinovic, husband and wife

0:21:28 > 0:21:30- and business partners. - Yeah? What kind of business?

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Sunstride PR. Corporate Public Relations.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35- Reputation management. - What, we got a list of clients?

0:21:35 > 0:21:38George and Herbie are looking into it.

0:46:53 > 0:46:55Oi!

0:46:55 > 0:46:56Bell end!

0:47:08 > 0:47:10You're killing him!

0:47:13 > 0:47:16Charlie, his kid's watching, his kid's watching!

0:47:22 > 0:47:24CHRIS COUGHS

0:47:50 > 0:47:52- Mummy!- Jessica!

0:47:53 > 0:47:55Oh, Jessica!

0:47:57 > 0:47:59SHE KISSES THEM

0:48:00 > 0:48:02You were right.

0:48:02 > 0:48:05There'll be more like this when the news gets out - The Hard Sun thing.

0:48:07 > 0:48:09Yeah.

0:48:11 > 0:48:15You should talk to Simone. Tell her the truth.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19Yeah? And what's that?

0:48:19 > 0:48:21I don't know. Make something up.

0:48:21 > 0:48:23Just talk to her.

0:48:39 > 0:48:42Charlie! What are you doing here? What's happened?

0:48:42 > 0:48:44I've been in the country.

0:48:45 > 0:48:46I hate the country.

0:48:46 > 0:48:48It smells and things live in it.

0:48:51 > 0:48:54Look, I just want to say one thing, all right?

0:48:54 > 0:48:57And then I'm going to go home, I'm going to have a shower

0:48:57 > 0:48:58and play on the Xbox.

0:49:00 > 0:49:02Yeah, I bought an Xbox, by the way.

0:49:02 > 0:49:03OK.

0:49:04 > 0:49:07Listen, what I've got to say, all right,

0:49:07 > 0:49:08I'm not trying to be a caveman.

0:49:08 > 0:49:10It's not a man and woman thing.

0:49:12 > 0:49:13It's a love thing.

0:49:15 > 0:49:16Does that make sense?

0:49:18 > 0:49:19Simone, look at me.

0:49:20 > 0:49:26You are safe, because I will protect you, no matter what.

0:49:27 > 0:49:30You, Hailey, and the bump.

0:49:32 > 0:49:38And as long as I draw breath, no-one will hurt you ever...

0:49:40 > 0:49:44..and if they try... well, I'll kill them.

0:49:46 > 0:49:48I need you to understand that.

0:49:52 > 0:49:53OK.

0:49:55 > 0:49:57So, when do I get to bring you home?

0:49:59 > 0:50:01How about tomorrow morning...

0:50:02 > 0:50:03..please?

0:50:08 > 0:50:10Tomorrow sounds good.

0:50:24 > 0:50:25PHONE RINGS

0:50:41 > 0:50:42Boss?

0:50:42 > 0:50:43Evening, Renko.

0:50:45 > 0:50:46What do you want?

0:50:46 > 0:50:47To make your life easier.

0:50:49 > 0:50:50What's that supposed to mean?

0:50:50 > 0:50:53You wanted evidence. I'm sending it through now.

0:50:59 > 0:51:00PHONE BUZZES

0:51:04 > 0:51:05Shit.

0:51:12 > 0:51:13My god!

0:51:16 > 0:51:17You've got him.

0:51:23 > 0:51:25Mum, it's all it is,

0:51:25 > 0:51:28I saw this thing on the news,

0:51:28 > 0:51:31this...this thing about the sun.

0:51:31 > 0:51:33And then, the next day or whatever,

0:51:33 > 0:51:37people all over the TV were saying it was like a mistake or whatever.

0:51:42 > 0:51:45And that makes sense, because...

0:51:50 > 0:51:54..I've got this thing, in my head.

0:51:56 > 0:51:59I look at their eyes when they say it's not true...

0:52:02 > 0:52:03..and I think they're lying.

0:52:05 > 0:52:09I've been thinking about it a lot, actually.

0:52:09 > 0:52:12It's kind of been keeping me awake.

0:52:13 > 0:52:18It's just like, why would they lie...

0:52:20 > 0:52:21..you know?

0:52:27 > 0:52:28But, yeah.

0:52:30 > 0:52:32Guess you're at work or whatever, so...

0:52:35 > 0:52:36..I'll speak later, yeah?

0:52:39 > 0:52:42It's Daniel, by the way.

0:52:45 > 0:52:47Bye.

0:53:01 > 0:53:03Daniel? You've got a visitor.

0:53:06 > 0:53:09It's not your mum. Sorry.

0:53:10 > 0:53:11Daniel?

0:53:13 > 0:53:15Such a pleasure to meet you.

0:53:25 > 0:53:28I'm Jamie. I'm here to listen.

0:53:28 > 0:53:31No-one is ever going to sing your favourite song ever again.

0:53:31 > 0:53:36- I hurt someone - that's my confession.- Who did you hurt?

0:53:36 > 0:53:39I shouldn't trust you cos you're a liar.

0:53:39 > 0:53:42Keeping a secret is... it's quite stressful.

0:53:42 > 0:53:46Forgive me, Charlie, for I have sinned.

0:53:46 > 0:53:47We've got the same problem.

0:53:48 > 0:53:50Elaine Renko.

0:53:54 > 0:53:55Come on, Dennis...

0:53:57 > 0:53:58..for the love of God.
