0:00:00 > 0:00:02This programme contains graphic violent scenes

0:00:02 > 0:00:04- Keel says there's a mole on the team. - It's got to be Aidan.

0:00:04 > 0:00:06Goebel hasn't been seen since the Turner House.

0:00:06 > 0:00:07Go to Amsterdam and find out what was in that case.

0:00:07 > 0:00:10The Russians were spying on an MI6 officer,

0:00:10 > 0:00:11called George Ballard.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14He kept a case file on something called Hourglass.

0:00:14 > 0:00:17- You have to do this. - No, I don't.

0:00:17 > 0:00:19Oh, God. What have you done.

0:00:19 > 0:00:21Someone's there.

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Why were you following Jack Turner?

0:00:24 > 0:00:27- Following him?- Do you know what he would do if he found out?

0:00:27 > 0:00:30- Is Miss Kent still with you? - You're being paranoid.- Am I?

0:00:30 > 0:00:33We'll need a list of all the women in your office who might have

0:00:33 > 0:00:34been followed last night.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36Dad, we're short 30 million quid.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38Kismet capitalises almost

0:00:38 > 0:00:40instantaneously on accidents, disasters.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43He's going to blow up a building.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46Get out of there now, that's an order.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Are you all right? Can you hear me, mate?

0:02:19 > 0:02:22TV: '...the full extent of the damage caused by what appears

0:02:22 > 0:02:27'to have been a large explosion. We are getting reports of one fatality.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30'We can cross live now to our reporter...'

0:02:30 > 0:02:31Good news?

0:02:32 > 0:02:36Our utility holdings jumped 32 million.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39Should be enough to satisfy the Pakistanis.

0:02:39 > 0:02:40Then everything's in hand.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Everything except, Alex Kent.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51- Sam?- Still no sign of her.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Turner's made his millions from this.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Yep, and no-one will ever suspect how.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01They're reporting a fatality at the scene. They're saying it's a woman,

0:03:01 > 0:03:04but Aidan still hasn't reported in.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06KNOCK AT DOOR

0:03:06 > 0:03:08- You wanted to see me? - Come in. Sit down.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14No need to be frightened.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16Am I in some kind of trouble?

0:03:18 > 0:03:20We just want to ask you a few questions about the work

0:03:20 > 0:03:22you've been doing with Aidan Marsh.

0:04:05 > 0:04:06Miss Kent.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10How are you feeling?

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Like someone stepped on my head.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17How did I get here?

0:04:17 > 0:04:19You were found unconscious on the pavement.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20Were you drinking last night?

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Just a little wine.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Any history of fainting, dizziness?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29No.

0:04:31 > 0:04:32Tell you what,

0:04:32 > 0:04:34I think you're fine,

0:04:34 > 0:04:37but we'd like to keep you under observation a bit longer. All right?

0:04:37 > 0:04:41- OK.- The nurse will be along in a minute. Do you need anything?

0:04:42 > 0:04:43Could you call my boss?

0:04:44 > 0:04:46He might be wondering where I am.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Give the number to the nurse when she comes in.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Dad...?- Morning.

0:05:15 > 0:05:16What time is it?

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Time to get up. I'll see you downstairs.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Where's Alex?

0:05:23 > 0:05:25She went out. She'll be back soon.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31How's Granddad's little soldier?

0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Good.- That's my boy. You go and get your breakfast.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36I need to have a word with your dad.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39I'll call the Pakistanis, explain to them we don't have the funds.

0:05:39 > 0:05:40No, no, no there's no need for that.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42What do you mean?

0:05:44 > 0:05:46I told you I'd take care of it, and I have.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50We have the 30 million?

0:05:50 > 0:05:51Of course.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55TELEPHONE RINGS

0:05:55 > 0:06:00Stevie...I wanted to ask you about Alex Kent.

0:06:01 > 0:06:02What about her?

0:06:02 > 0:06:07I understand she's been gone all night. She called you at all?

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Mr Stephen, it's for you.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14Hello...

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Where is it?

0:06:26 > 0:06:27There a problem?

0:06:27 > 0:06:32Yeah, Stephen Turner's on a call in the library. I can't get the bloody volume.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36- FROM SPEAKER:- 'All right, I see.'

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Well, sure. If you'd shown me that before.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42'Yeah, OK. Yeah, that's right, can you give me the address.'

0:06:42 > 0:06:44No, no I understand. Thank you.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50That was the Royal Hospital. Alex collapsed last night

0:06:50 > 0:06:52on her way back to the house.

0:06:55 > 0:06:56What's happened?

0:06:56 > 0:07:00I can't reach Aidan. And Sam never returned from Conroy's last night.

0:07:00 > 0:07:01I gathered that much.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07What about the cheese then?

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- Zoe.- Sam's in the Royal Hospital. - She all right?

0:07:12 > 0:07:16I'm guessing its cover for her late return, but Fowkes still can't reach Aidan.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18If he shows up, send him to us.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20What for?

0:07:21 > 0:07:23We got a situation.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54Good morning, Miss Kent. Or should I say, Miss Hunter?

0:07:54 > 0:07:57It's all right. I'm not here to hurt you.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59You injected me with something.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00A sedative.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02Why?

0:08:03 > 0:08:04I need to talk to you.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07You jab me in the eye just so you can talk to me?

0:08:07 > 0:08:09And to demonstrate my good will.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13If I wanted to kill you, you'd be dead, obviously.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16You didn't need to put me in a hospital bed for that.

0:08:16 > 0:08:22The hospital explains your absence, both to the Turners and Byzantium.

0:08:22 > 0:08:23So, talk.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30I'll just put these in water.

0:08:51 > 0:08:52Your life is in danger.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54No shit.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Unfortunately, I arrived in Tangier too late.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59I spent the past year searching for you.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03By the time I found you, you were already in the Turner house.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08You impersonated Horst Goebel, just to get to me.

0:09:09 > 0:09:13- I could hardly enter that house as myself.- And the real Horst Goebel?

0:09:13 > 0:09:18Sedated, like you. Though, he never woke up.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24I need to take you somewhere safe. Beyond their reach.

0:09:25 > 0:09:26You mean Hourglass.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30I'm not authorised to discuss that.

0:09:30 > 0:09:31I'm not going anywhere with you.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37Your absence now would raise too many questions.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42But time is running out. Byzantium will soon realise the danger you are in.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44You mustn't trust anyone.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Especially, if they say they're trying to help you.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49You mean like you.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Oh, you can put back the knife now.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00How did they know I was at that cafe?

0:10:01 > 0:10:05It was intemperate of you to have an affair with a colleague.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11Aidan.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23You, OK?

0:10:23 > 0:10:27Something wrong, Deacon? You don't seem your usual, jolly self.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31I need to ask you some questions.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Let's talk later. I want to go check on Sam.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Let's talk now.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42Of course.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45SHE MOUTHS

0:10:55 > 0:10:59Hello, Mr Ballard, Mr Keel is waiting for you.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Hello, George.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12You're looking very well.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14I look like shit. So do you.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18- Tea. Earl Grey with lemon. - Right away.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25It's good to see you again.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Nostalgia's the last thing I'd expect from you, Rupert.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32You were an excellent analyst, the best MI6 had.

0:11:32 > 0:11:37And you were a brilliant strategist. Always two steps ahead.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41I suppose that's why you're sitting here in a bespoke suit,

0:11:41 > 0:11:44while I'm living in Croydon on a government wage.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Well, you were an idealist.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49You make it sound like a dirty word.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55I like to think there are still certain causes worth fighting for.

0:11:55 > 0:11:56That's a pretty thought.

0:11:58 > 0:12:03So, why did you ask to see me again after all these years?

0:12:03 > 0:12:06An operative of ours, Sam Hunter.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Don't pretend you don't know who she is.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Or that she disappeared for the past year.

0:12:16 > 0:12:21You can believe...anything you like.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27She's mixed up in something.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29I'm not sure what...

0:12:31 > 0:12:33..but I'm beginning to get an idea.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38How's this for a blank face?

0:12:40 > 0:12:41Hourglass.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48I thought as much.

0:12:48 > 0:12:53I don't know what Hourglass is, Rupert.

0:12:53 > 0:12:54Of course you don't.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Enjoy your tea, George.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Alex.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15How you feeling?

0:13:15 > 0:13:16I'm fine.

0:13:16 > 0:13:20- She had us worried, didn't she, Eddie?- Yeah.

0:13:20 > 0:13:21Are you all right?

0:13:21 > 0:13:23I am, if you are.

0:13:27 > 0:13:28So, can we take you home now or...?

0:13:28 > 0:13:32The doctor wants me to stay for a few hours of observation. Just to be sure.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Will you be home when I get back from school?

0:13:35 > 0:13:38I hope so.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47You know what this is about, don't you?

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Surprise party?

0:13:50 > 0:13:52We've got a mole on the team.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58Run by MI6 officer Natalie Thorpe.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Is that so?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07You know it is. You're the mole.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10That kind of hurts my feelings, Deacon.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12After all the ops we've worked together.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Imagine how I feel?

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Losing Hasan...

0:14:24 > 0:14:28..because someone on my team was spying for six.

0:14:31 > 0:14:32What makes you think it was me?

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Do you want to leave this room in a body bag?

0:14:41 > 0:14:43That wouldn't be my preference, no.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46Then here's how it works. I ask the questions, you answer.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Or you don't leave this room. Ever.

0:14:49 > 0:14:50PHONE RINGS

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- Sam.- What have I missed? - 'That building exploded...'

0:14:56 > 0:14:59Turner secured his 30 million quid, thanks to Lewis Conroy.

0:14:59 > 0:15:00What about Aidan?

0:15:01 > 0:15:05He's being held at Byzantium. Crane thinks he's the mole.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07I'll be in touch.

0:15:07 > 0:15:12Yesterday you instructed Simran Bains to make unauthorised

0:15:12 > 0:15:16inquiries into something called Hourglass.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18Why?

0:15:18 > 0:15:20I'd love to tell you Deacon, I really would.

0:15:20 > 0:15:21Then do it.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24Once you've proved to me that you're not the mole.

0:15:38 > 0:15:39Me?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42I'd hardly make "authorised" inquiries, would I?

0:15:42 > 0:15:45When anyone on my team might be the one who got Hasan killed?

0:15:47 > 0:15:49You're pulling this out of your ass.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51I'm not the mole, Deacon. And I'm not going to answer

0:15:51 > 0:15:54any more questions until I know you not, either.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Look who's pulling up to the Big Brother house now.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11What did you do to her, Lewis?

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Alex Kent. She's in hospital.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16In hospital? What for?

0:16:16 > 0:16:20Well, she fainted on the pavement. You must have been too much for her.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25I came here to tell you, I'm done, Jack.

0:16:26 > 0:16:31Done? What do you mean, done?

0:16:31 > 0:16:35This whole business. I've made enough money, so have you.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Since when has anyone ever made "enough" money?

0:16:39 > 0:16:44A woman was killed in that explosion, and Vince...

0:16:46 > 0:16:48You don't seem to understand, Lewis.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50You don't stop until I tell you to stop.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53Did you bring the list I asked you for?

0:16:53 > 0:16:56No, I didn't bring the bloody list.

0:16:56 > 0:17:00I'm not having you investigate my friends, the people I work with.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03The woman you saw at the university might be the same woman who

0:17:03 > 0:17:06- broke into your office last night. - You think I don't know that?

0:17:08 > 0:17:10I keep expecting the police to bust in my door at any second.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Whoever she is, she's not the police.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15Then who is she?

0:17:15 > 0:17:17You let us worry about that.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Go home, you've done well for us today.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24- I'll see you out. - I can see myself out.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36He's become a problem, hasn't he?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Let's get our ducks in a row first.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47You dig up what you can about that break-in last night.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54Where are you going, sir?

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Me? I fancy a drink down my local.

0:18:00 > 0:18:04- Should I follow them? - Yeah, you'd better. I'll tell Crane.

0:18:04 > 0:18:05Where you going?

0:18:05 > 0:18:07- Conroy's flat.- What for?

0:18:07 > 0:18:09Turner's going to be looking for the woman that

0:18:09 > 0:18:12saw him murder the professor, then broke into Conroy's office.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14We have to make sure he finds her.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24He suspects you.

0:18:26 > 0:18:27He's playing for time.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Come with me.

0:18:32 > 0:18:33AIDAN COUGHS

0:18:33 > 0:18:34Get it open!

0:18:51 > 0:18:53- Aidan's escaped. - Is he still in the building?

0:18:53 > 0:18:54All exits are sealed.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57Mr Marsh, raise your hands.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Two more guards down.

0:19:18 > 0:19:19Let's split up.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Aidan, you're not going to shoot me.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43I didn't betray you.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Anything?

0:20:55 > 0:20:58We have all eyes on the airports and train stations.

0:20:58 > 0:20:59Not that he'd be that stupid.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01He said "I didn't betray you."

0:21:01 > 0:21:02And you believe him?

0:21:02 > 0:21:04He could've killed us both, and didn't.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35I thought you wanted this to be over?

0:21:35 > 0:21:37It is over now. Byzantium found me out.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39When?

0:21:39 > 0:21:42This morning. I managed to escape the building.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45We'll relocate you.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48I need to fix this.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50This can't be fixed.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02I need to have a meeting with your boss. I want to meet George Ballard.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Ballard?

0:22:04 > 0:22:06He's got a case file on something called Hourglass.

0:22:06 > 0:22:07How do you know who I report to?

0:22:07 > 0:22:11- Or what case files he has? - Natalie...

0:22:11 > 0:22:12I need answers.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15I don't have them. I've never heard of Hourglass.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Neither had I.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21But whatever it is, it has something to do with who tried to kill Sam in Tangier.

0:22:23 > 0:22:24I see how talking to Ballard

0:22:24 > 0:22:26might help her. I don't see how it helps you.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30Those gunmen nearly killed Sam because of intel that I gave you.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36You should want to know how and why they got that information, just as much as her.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41I know you'll just tell me what you think I need to hear...

0:22:43 > 0:22:45..but when you were with me...

0:22:46 > 0:22:48..was it all just an act?

0:22:54 > 0:22:56At least when you don't talk, I know you're not lying.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05GUN COCKS

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Thanks for not shooting.

0:23:33 > 0:23:34I won't hurt you, Sam.

0:23:43 > 0:23:48Go ahead, pull the trigger. But I'm on your side.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51You're the mole.

0:23:51 > 0:23:55I didn't have any choice, but I couldn't tell you that without compromising you, too.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58You told MI6 where I'd be.

0:23:58 > 0:24:03I didn't know anyone would try to kill you. Neither did she.

0:24:03 > 0:24:04You're lying.

0:24:07 > 0:24:12I did lie. I had to. But I'm not lying now.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17Sam, I know about Hourglass.

0:24:21 > 0:24:22How do you know?

0:24:25 > 0:24:27I found your hidden room.

0:24:29 > 0:24:30I know everything.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34That's how I got caught. Trying to help you.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38And I can't go back to Byzantium.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40I need answers.

0:24:41 > 0:24:42Just like you.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09What brings you to this dump, Jack?

0:25:11 > 0:25:12Come on in, son.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14I want you to meet an old friend of mine.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16All right.

0:25:16 > 0:25:17Brilliant.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32Jack Turner, I never expected to see you back in these parts again.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34Well, you need a passport these days.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36But we're still holding the fort, ain't we?

0:25:36 > 0:25:39Long time since we raised glasses in here, eh, Dave?

0:25:39 > 0:25:40Too long, Jack.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43I want you to meet a friend of mine, Gary.

0:25:48 > 0:25:49Gary.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02Gary's a useful lad. He helped Tyrone with those jobs.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04I don't know what jobs you're talking about, Dave.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08Oh, of course, yeah. Sorry.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10Why don't you show me that little item you're holding for me?

0:26:10 > 0:26:11Yeah. Of course, Jack.

0:26:22 > 0:26:23It's down here, I think.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Here we are. Safe and sound.

0:26:44 > 0:26:45Everything in order?

0:26:47 > 0:26:48Now put it somewhere else.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51- No-one comes in here, Jack. - Just do it.

0:26:51 > 0:26:52All right.

0:26:54 > 0:26:55Now, who's this Gary?

0:26:58 > 0:26:59OK.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03She talked to Ballard.

0:27:03 > 0:27:04He won't meet with me.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Just you, alone.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11- Where?- West wing of the National Gallery.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13In front of a painting called "The Ambassadors."

0:27:15 > 0:27:17If there's trouble meet me at the back?

0:27:40 > 0:27:42DOORBELL BUZZES

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Trudy, what are you doing here?

0:27:49 > 0:27:50Why aren't you at work?

0:27:51 > 0:27:52I haven't been feeling well.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Well, you could at least pick up the phone.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- There's a man called Bingham at the office.- Bingham...

0:28:01 > 0:28:04He works for Jack Turner.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06I know who he is.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09Well, he said that you authorised him to look through your files.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11I told him he couldn't touch a thing until I spoke to you.

0:28:13 > 0:28:14Go ahead.

0:28:16 > 0:28:17Let him look.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21Why? What's he looking for?

0:28:25 > 0:28:27Is this about the break-in last night?

0:28:29 > 0:28:33Lewis, if you're in some kind of trouble, please, just tell me.

0:28:36 > 0:28:37Trudy...

0:28:39 > 0:28:41I didn't treat you very well, did I?

0:28:44 > 0:28:46I don't have any hard feelings.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51Mark and I... We're very happy.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55I'd really like to help you, if I can.

0:29:06 > 0:29:09- Could you hold that for me, please? - Sure.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Trudy Barnes.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22Conroy's secretary of four years. They had an affair last summer,

0:29:22 > 0:29:25while she was engaged to be married to this man, Mark Rothman.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27He was away serving a third tour of Afghanistan.

0:29:27 > 0:29:32- What happened?- From their text messages it appears Conroy just got tired of her.

0:29:32 > 0:29:33And her fiance?

0:29:33 > 0:29:35Now her husband.

0:29:37 > 0:29:41That works for us. You make sure Turner gets their names.

0:29:43 > 0:29:44You know what he'll do.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47That's the point, isn't it?

0:29:48 > 0:29:50These are innocents. There must be another way.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52I'm open to suggestions.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Zoe found something in Amsterdam.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02Er, yes, Horst Goebel.

0:30:03 > 0:30:06His body was found floating in the Keizersgracht canal three weeks ago.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09I identified him from prints I lifted at his lab.

0:30:09 > 0:30:10Murdered.

0:30:10 > 0:30:11Slipped and drowned, officially.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13After he left the Turner house?

0:30:13 > 0:30:15He was never at the Turner house.

0:30:19 > 0:30:22Whoever our imposter was, I believe he murdered Goebel

0:30:22 > 0:30:23and then took his place.

0:30:54 > 0:30:59After nearly five hundred years, its meaning remains obscure,

0:30:59 > 0:31:01even to scholars.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03You ask me here to talk about art, Mr Ballard?

0:31:04 > 0:31:09A subject which bores me to tears. Except for this particular picture.

0:31:09 > 0:31:11It was painted in 1533.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15A period of intense economic unrest in Europe, not unlike today.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Some think it was commissioned by a French ambassador,

0:31:19 > 0:31:22but I believe it was British merchants.

0:31:22 > 0:31:24Is this supposed to interest me?

0:31:24 > 0:31:26It should.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29These merchants felt constrained by their governments who wrote

0:31:29 > 0:31:32the laws and levied the taxes, so they formed a secret pact.

0:31:34 > 0:31:36They called it Hourglass.

0:31:38 > 0:31:40You see the skull.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43It's distorted, the artist's way of telling us,

0:31:43 > 0:31:44"Things are not what they seem."

0:31:44 > 0:31:47Everything in this painting is a clue.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49A clue to what?

0:31:49 > 0:31:50Their plot.

0:31:50 > 0:31:53To concentrate the world's wealth, power

0:31:53 > 0:31:55and influence into private hands.

0:31:55 > 0:31:57To undermine the power of governments,

0:31:57 > 0:31:59without arousing the ire of the people.

0:31:59 > 0:32:01Over the years, these conspirators

0:32:01 > 0:32:06evolved into five major multinational corporations.

0:32:06 > 0:32:10It took them five centuries, but they've finally succeeded.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18Even if all of this is true, I don't see what it has to do with me.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21They've spent so much time trying to find you.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23You obviously pose some kind of a threat.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25I don't see how.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27Then you have no idea why they've tried to kill you?

0:32:34 > 0:32:36I had been hoping that you might be

0:32:36 > 0:32:38what I've been looking for all these years.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41A way to expose them for what they are.

0:32:42 > 0:32:46A plague on civilisation, bent on destroying it to enrich themselves.

0:32:48 > 0:32:50You've got the wrong girl, Mr Ballard.

0:32:52 > 0:32:54You're going to have to be even more careful, now.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58Rupert Keel knows that Hourglass is interested in you.

0:33:00 > 0:33:02What's Keel's connection?

0:33:02 > 0:33:06Three members of the Byzantium board of directors are CEOs

0:33:06 > 0:33:09of Hourglass corporations.

0:33:09 > 0:33:13Whichever corporation wants you dead doesn't want anyone to know.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16- What is it?- Come with me.

0:33:33 > 0:33:35He's right behind us.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46- You didn't lose him, did you? - Not a chance.

0:34:08 > 0:34:10Stop them...

0:34:11 > 0:34:15You must stop them...

0:35:18 > 0:35:19What's on your mind?

0:35:22 > 0:35:23You think God sees everything?

0:35:25 > 0:35:26If there is a God.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30A question for which I've seen precious little evidence lately.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Be careful, Father. You'll lose your job.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35You didn't come here to talk about me.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45I've done a lot of bad things in my life.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51What is it?

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Two people are going to die.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02People I've never met.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04- Haven't done anything wrong. - You can't stop it?

0:36:09 > 0:36:10I'm the cause of it.

0:36:12 > 0:36:15It's something my job compels me to do.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19Whoever you work for, I don't think they pay you enough for that.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24If I don't let them die, then one of my colleagues will.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29The church allows for killing in self-defence.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34Or a "just" war, whatever that is.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37This is neither.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Then you have to stop it.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47It won't stop blood being spilled.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53I'm not going to pretend I know if there's an all-seeing God.

0:36:54 > 0:36:58But I do know, if you commit a mortal sin

0:36:58 > 0:37:03it kills the soul, as surely as a fatal disease kills the body.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10Do you have any idea who that was?

0:37:10 > 0:37:13He killed Emma Freeman. And tried to kill me.

0:37:14 > 0:37:15Those steps you fell down, that was him.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17He offered Hasan money to kill me.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20- What...? - I killed him in self-defence.

0:37:22 > 0:37:23Well, that's a relief.

0:37:28 > 0:37:29A relief...?

0:37:32 > 0:37:33What?

0:37:36 > 0:37:37I betrayed Hasan.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43- Why?- You told me Keel was looking for a mole.

0:37:48 > 0:37:49So, you got Hasan captured...

0:37:51 > 0:37:52..to protect yourself.

0:37:54 > 0:37:55Sam, it was him or me.

0:37:57 > 0:37:58You put me in danger.

0:37:59 > 0:38:02I knew you'd be ordered to kill him. And you did.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36- Dave tells me you were in the Army. - Yeah, that's right.

0:38:36 > 0:38:37Did my four years.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40Four years? Good lad.

0:38:40 > 0:38:43Queen and country. What were you then?

0:38:43 > 0:38:45SAS?

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Nah, just a squaddie. Essex boy.

0:38:50 > 0:38:52In the Anglians.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57So what are you doing messing about in this dump?

0:38:57 > 0:39:00Be fair, Jack. He's a good bloke.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03I tell you what, he reminds me a bit of young Jack Jr.

0:39:05 > 0:39:06Does he, Dave?

0:39:08 > 0:39:10Does he?

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Dave is referring to my eldest, John.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22Perhaps you do look alike.

0:39:22 > 0:39:23Can't see it myself.

0:39:25 > 0:39:29Are you brave, Gary? Are you loyal?

0:39:31 > 0:39:33Are you the sort of son to make your father proud?

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Well, I hope so. For your sake...

0:39:36 > 0:39:38For your Dad's sake.

0:39:40 > 0:39:41But I tell you what, Gary...

0:39:43 > 0:39:46I hope you don't end up dead,

0:39:46 > 0:39:49cut to pieces with your dick stuffed in your mouth.

0:39:49 > 0:39:53- I'm sorry, Jack, I didn't mean... - Just turn up the telly, Dave.

0:39:53 > 0:39:54What?

0:39:56 > 0:39:58I said turn up the sodding telly.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00Yeah. Sorry. Of course.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04TELEVISION: '...the threat these economic hit men pose to the developing world.'

0:40:04 > 0:40:05'Forgive me, Madam Zahir,

0:40:05 > 0:40:07'but it seems you are making very strong accusations.'

0:40:07 > 0:40:09'I am.

0:40:09 > 0:40:11'I want people to become angry

0:40:11 > 0:40:14'and inflamed about the corrupt elements in our country.'

0:40:14 > 0:40:17'You're referring to the privatisation of the Khyber Dam.'

0:40:17 > 0:40:18'It's a scandal.

0:40:18 > 0:40:24'And I intend to expose and stop it, if I'm elected president.'

0:41:28 > 0:41:29Mr Keel.

0:41:34 > 0:41:37I told you Aidan was looking into an MI6 case file.

0:41:37 > 0:41:40- Belonging to a section chief named George Ballard.- Yes?

0:41:40 > 0:41:44Ballard was just found dead, outside the National Gallery.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54There are seven members of the Byzantium board of directors.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57Ballard said three of them are Hourglass conspirators.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00- So where do we start? - Hector Stokes, CEO of Polyhedrus,

0:42:00 > 0:42:03the third largest privately held corporation in the world.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06Polyhedrus built the dam in Pakistan the Turners are bidding on.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09- Do you think there's a connection? - I'm guessing there is.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17When did you start spying for MI6?

0:42:18 > 0:42:20Two years, seven months, eight days ago.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25Why did you do it?

0:42:27 > 0:42:32- The lovely Miss Thorpe was blackmailing me.- For what?

0:42:48 > 0:42:50Aidan Marsh isn't my real name.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54It's an identity I assumed a long time ago.

0:42:59 > 0:43:01If you're not Aidan Marsh, then who are you?

0:43:03 > 0:43:05Better you don't know.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07I said, who are you?

0:43:10 > 0:43:12I don't know where you grew up,

0:43:12 > 0:43:16whether your mum had a temper, your dad drank too much before dinner.

0:43:16 > 0:43:18I don't know anything about your past.

0:43:18 > 0:43:22But I know how you think. I know how you feel.

0:43:25 > 0:43:26I know you, Sam.

0:43:27 > 0:43:29Better than anyone else in the world.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31If that's supposed to make me trust you, it doesn't.

0:43:34 > 0:43:35I'm trusting you.

0:43:35 > 0:43:39Until now, Natalie Thorpe was the only person in the world that

0:43:39 > 0:43:40knew I'd lied about my identity.

0:43:42 > 0:43:44Now you know it, too.

0:43:50 > 0:43:53Keep walking, Natalie, if you don't want to be seen with me.

0:43:53 > 0:43:55What is it you want, Mr Keel?

0:43:55 > 0:43:58To offer my condolences for the murdered George Ballard.

0:43:58 > 0:43:59He was a good man.

0:43:59 > 0:44:01Thank you, but he wasn't murdered. He died of a heart attack.

0:44:01 > 0:44:04Is that the story you're peddling?

0:44:05 > 0:44:07You've infiltrated my organisation with a mole,

0:44:07 > 0:44:09and now your direct superior is dead.

0:44:09 > 0:44:11I need to know why.

0:44:11 > 0:44:12I've told you before, Mr Keel.

0:44:12 > 0:44:16I'm not one of your lackeys, I work for Her Majesty's Government.

0:44:16 > 0:44:17Well, that's where you're wrong.

0:44:17 > 0:44:20You've already collected £80,000 in unreported income.

0:44:20 > 0:44:23I started making payments into a Swiss bank account

0:44:23 > 0:44:25I opened in your name after our last meeting.

0:44:25 > 0:44:26You're setting me up.

0:44:27 > 0:44:28You won't be able to make it stick.

0:44:28 > 0:44:32How many years will it take to prove your innocence?

0:44:32 > 0:44:34And what kind of career will you have by that point?

0:44:34 > 0:44:36What do you want?

0:44:36 > 0:44:38Everything. Everything you know.

0:44:42 > 0:44:45Eddie, how was your day?

0:44:45 > 0:44:47It was fine, thanks. Where's Alex?

0:44:47 > 0:44:50She's not back from hospital, yet.

0:44:50 > 0:44:52What's this?

0:44:56 > 0:44:57Do you think she'll like it?

0:45:07 > 0:45:11Mr Bingham...find your way all right?

0:45:16 > 0:45:17Excuse me.

0:45:23 > 0:45:26- I found her.- Who is it?

0:45:26 > 0:45:29Conroy's secretary, Trudy Barnes.

0:45:29 > 0:45:30What makes you think it's her?

0:45:30 > 0:45:34A got a little bit of information from Conroy's e-mail account.

0:45:34 > 0:45:36He was sleeping with her until last July.

0:45:36 > 0:45:40- So...?- Two months later she marries another man.

0:45:40 > 0:45:44Ex-military. They're already having financial problems.

0:45:44 > 0:45:48What, you think she intends to blackmail Lewis?

0:45:48 > 0:45:50You saw a man and woman at the university that night.

0:45:50 > 0:45:54Last night there was a man and a woman at Conroy's office.

0:45:59 > 0:46:01Check it out.

0:46:25 > 0:46:27Let's find another way in.

0:46:47 > 0:46:49Let me out! Let me out! Let me out!

0:46:49 > 0:46:51What is it?

0:46:52 > 0:46:54Sam?

0:48:13 > 0:48:17Let me out! Let me out!

0:48:17 > 0:48:19I've been here before.

0:48:40 > 0:48:42What is this place?

0:48:48 > 0:48:50I was taken here...

0:48:52 > 0:48:53..as a child.

0:49:10 > 0:49:13Let me out! Let me out!

0:49:19 > 0:49:21CAR APPROACHES

0:49:26 > 0:49:28Sam, we need to go.

0:52:04 > 0:52:05You off, Jack?

0:52:06 > 0:52:10I've got something for Tyrone. Everett will need to clean up after.

0:52:11 > 0:52:14Tyrone's got his hands full at the moment.

0:52:14 > 0:52:16Why not use Gary over there?

0:52:17 > 0:52:20I don't like the smell of your friend Gary.

0:52:20 > 0:52:24He's a good bloke, Jack. You ought to give him a chance.

0:52:24 > 0:52:25You telling me what to do now, Dave?

0:52:25 > 0:52:28You know me better than that.

0:53:12 > 0:53:14Yeah.

0:53:14 > 0:53:17- 'Are you back in London yet?' - Yeah, did you clean up?

0:53:17 > 0:53:18That was quite a mess you left.

0:53:18 > 0:53:20What about Byzantium?

0:53:20 > 0:53:22- I cleaned that up, too.- How?

0:53:22 > 0:53:25Listen to me. Very carefully.

0:54:12 > 0:54:15Alex, you're back!

0:54:16 > 0:54:19- Will you read The Snow Maiden to me? - You know I will.

0:54:19 > 0:54:21- Come see me after you put Edward to bed, will you?- Sure.

0:55:02 > 0:55:03Who are you?

0:55:17 > 0:55:18All right, thanks.

0:55:21 > 0:55:24The police have arrived. They found the bodies.

0:55:33 > 0:55:34Well, look what the cat dragged in.

0:55:34 > 0:55:37Dragged myself in, actually.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39I knew you'd catch up with me in the end. As I told you before...

0:55:39 > 0:55:42Right. You're innocent.

0:55:44 > 0:55:45So I hear.

0:55:47 > 0:55:49Hasan was the mole.

0:55:49 > 0:55:50Hasan...?

0:55:52 > 0:55:55We think someone at six tripped him up, got him caught by the Turners.

0:55:55 > 0:55:58Well, that explains a lot.

0:55:58 > 0:56:02- What do you mean?- I overheard Hasan talking to someone on the phone the afternoon he got captured.

0:56:02 > 0:56:04That's where I heard the word Hourglass.

0:56:04 > 0:56:07And you don't know what that means?

0:56:07 > 0:56:09Just what Simran said.

0:56:18 > 0:56:19Anything else you haven't told me?

0:56:20 > 0:56:23Just that I'm sorry I ever suspected you.

0:56:51 > 0:56:53You wanted to see me?

0:56:53 > 0:56:54Yeah, Eddie made you this.

0:57:07 > 0:57:08- It's so sweet.- Yeah.

0:57:10 > 0:57:13I went to the hospital this afternoon to give it to you.

0:57:16 > 0:57:17You weren't there.

0:57:19 > 0:57:23They said you checked yourself out, right after we left.

0:57:26 > 0:57:27I did...

0:57:29 > 0:57:31I needed to go for a walk and think.

0:57:34 > 0:57:36About what?

0:57:51 > 0:57:52It's OK.

0:58:16 > 0:58:18I saw another name I recognised,

0:58:18 > 0:58:20- Arthur Hill.- The doctor Faroux tortured in Tangier.

0:58:20 > 0:58:23- I don't know anything about this. - You're a poor liar, doctor.

0:58:23 > 0:58:25I'm afraid I have to ask you to leave.

0:58:25 > 0:58:26Are you threatening me, Bingham?

0:58:26 > 0:58:27And you're crying because you want respect?

0:58:27 > 0:58:29I'm not looking for your respect!

0:58:29 > 0:58:30We're being lied to.

0:58:31 > 0:58:34We've known that since the day Sam returned.

0:58:34 > 0:58:36You watch yourself, do you understand?

0:58:36 > 0:58:37Get in the car.

0:58:39 > 0:58:40Get down!
