0:00:16 > 0:00:23# She knows too well that she's the only one
0:00:23 > 0:00:28# She doesn't care if you're the lonely one. #
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Jochen. Don't make yourself sick. You'll have to walk home.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Mummy?
0:00:55 > 0:00:56Yes.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Is Sally your real mummy?
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Of course. Why do you ask?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03It's just she's so strange.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Well, we're all strange when you come to think about it.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11I'm strange, you're strange.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Oi, what are you doing? You stupid woman!
0:02:26 > 0:02:28HE MAKES AEROPLANE NOISES
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Be careful, Jochen.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Sally?
0:03:00 > 0:03:04We're here.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Sally! We're here!
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Mum...?
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Mum? Sally...?
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Ruth!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30My God, what's happened?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32What's with the wheelchair?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35I fell and hurt my back. Doctor said not to overdo the walking.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Did anybody follow you?
0:03:39 > 0:03:44No. What are you talking about? Follow us?
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Hello, darling.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Hello!
0:03:52 > 0:03:53How's the thesis going?
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Slowly but surely.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Wouldn't a job be better?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00I'll get a better job with a PhD.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04A PhD on Anarchist Politics in Post-War Germany?
0:04:04 > 0:04:08A PhD is a PhD.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10A PhD is a route to getting a job.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Who says I want a job?
0:04:18 > 0:04:20How's Jochen getting on?
0:04:20 > 0:04:23He's fine. Likes his school.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I'm trying to say, in my clumsy way,
0:04:27 > 0:04:30isn't it not too much for you?
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Cambridge University thesis, teaching foreign students,
0:04:33 > 0:04:35on your own with a young boy?
0:04:35 > 0:04:38We're fine, Sal. Don't worry.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40We're happy.
0:04:41 > 0:04:42Doesn't he miss his father?
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Karl-Heinz has a right to see him whenever he wants.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Well, as long as I agree.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56- So... Hadn't you better tell me? - What?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58What's with this wheelchair lark?
0:05:00 > 0:05:01Things are going on...
0:05:01 > 0:05:03What things are going on?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09There are people in the woods.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14Yes, ramblers. People walking their dogs.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18- People out for a walk. - People who are watching me.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21You need to see a doctor.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25All right, all right. I'm sorry.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28But you must admit I have good cause.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34I'll give you good cause.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13What's this?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Read it, you'll see.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Who the hell is Eva Delectorskaya?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23I am.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29No. No, you're not. You're my mother.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32You're Sally Gilmartin.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34I am Eva Delectorskaya.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48DRUMMING AND SINGING INCREASING IN VOLUME
0:06:50 > 0:06:55# Contre nous de la tyrannie,
0:06:55 > 0:06:58# L'etendard sanglant est leve
0:06:58 > 0:07:01# Entendez-vous dans les campagnes... #
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Eva!
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Eva.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08I'm sorry. What can I say?
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Only 40 minutes late. You're getting better, Kolia.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Father's medicine. There was a queue.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Enormous. Kilometres long. - Of course there was.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18I've got to run. I'll see you tomorrow.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20I thought we were having lunch?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Eva. Eva, Eva, always nagging.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Where are you running off to? - A meeting.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28What kind of meeting?
0:07:28 > 0:07:33A meeting kind of meeting. Don't worry, big sister.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Well, be careful!- I'll be fine!
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Et nous disons aux etrangers qui decident de vivre chez nous.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16Vous etes comme les Juifs et les Francmacons.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19CHORUS OF SHOUTING
0:08:23 > 0:08:27- Vive la France!- Vive la France!
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Qu'est-ce que se passe! Hey!
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Je suis journaliste!
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Allons-y.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57FUNERAL MASS IS READ OUT
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Really, darling, you didn't need to drive all this way...
0:10:24 > 0:10:27Stop right there! You, Eva, or whoever you are,
0:10:27 > 0:10:31have just described a young man being horribly kicked to death
0:10:31 > 0:10:32by a bunch of fascist thugs!
0:10:32 > 0:10:35This Kolia you say is my uncle. Was my uncle.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37- He was!- How do you think that makes me feel?
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Me! Ruth Gilmartin, as was! Your daughter!
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Reading something like that. How do I know what to believe?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Believe it. It's the truth.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49But why now, Sal, after all this time?
0:10:55 > 0:10:56I don't get it.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59What's Dad's memorial service got to do with anything?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Somebody saw that photo. I knew they would.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04It's the Cambridge News and Herald, Mum, for God's sake.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06They see everything!
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Because then I noticed the people in the woods,
0:11:08 > 0:11:11the new cars in the village. They'd found me.
0:11:11 > 0:11:12Or thought they had.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Then I realised I had to do something. I need your help.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I just don't believe it.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21It's happening. It's true.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Suddenly I'm half-Russian?
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Yes. Yes, you are.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51SOBBING
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Mademoiselle Delectorskaya?
0:12:07 > 0:12:12Monsieur! S'il vous plait?
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Pourquoi vous me suivez, monsieur?
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Forgive me, I didn't mean to frighten you.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21I wondered if I might have a moment of your time.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26How did you know my brother?
0:12:27 > 0:12:32My name's Lucas Romer. I was a friend of Kolia's.
0:12:34 > 0:12:39- I saw you the day he died. - Yes. Yes, I met with him.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42You heard what happened? Robbed and killed.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Actually, I think he was murdered.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50I think they took his wallet to make it look like a robbery but...
0:12:50 > 0:12:52I'm afraid he was killed by fascists.
0:12:52 > 0:12:57What are you talking about? He was a piano teacher.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59He was...
0:12:59 > 0:13:03Oh. Of course.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Your English is excellent, by the way. Hardly any accent.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Please.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16We had an English governess in the old days.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19In Russia, before we came to Paris.
0:13:21 > 0:13:26"Lucas Romer. Managing director. AAS." What does that mean?
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Actuarial and Accountancy Services.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- You're an accountant? - Please. Miss Delectorskaya,
0:13:32 > 0:13:37I just wanted to express my condolences.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42I've been looking for the right moment.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44My deepest sympathy.
0:13:48 > 0:13:53Well... Thank you.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Goodbye.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49PHONE RINGS
0:14:52 > 0:14:54- Hello?- Ruth.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Hello, Mum.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58How are you getting on? Where've you got to?
0:14:58 > 0:15:04I've stopped. I don't think I can take much more.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09Keep going, darling.. You'll see exactly why I need you.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Mum?
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Mum!
0:15:32 > 0:15:33Papa?
0:15:33 > 0:15:35What are you doing?
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Hello, my dear. Will you join us in a drink?
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Papa. What is he doing...?
0:15:41 > 0:15:45I've been having a most interesting conversation with your father.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Mr Romer says I can be British citizen.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- We can both be British citizen, Eva.- Papa!
0:15:51 > 0:15:54I go prepare our supper. Huh? All right?
0:15:58 > 0:16:00- This intrusion is completely... - I'll explain.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02I work for the British Government.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Please, leave, my father's not well! This kind of excitement is not...
0:16:05 > 0:16:07The security services. Kolia was one of us.
0:16:07 > 0:16:14He was infiltrating and reporting on fascist organizations in France.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Why are you telling me all of this?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Perhaps we should go for a walk.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26But I don't understand.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Why would Kolia join the British Secret Service? It's not like him.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32Because there's a war coming. Yes, a war with Germany.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35This year, next year. It's just a matter of time,
0:16:35 > 0:16:37but for some of us, it's already started.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40Kolia was fighting in that war. Think of him as a soldier.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Don't let him have died in vain.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46This has nothing to do with me. How can I believe you?
0:16:46 > 0:16:48You could tell me anything.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Why would I go to all this trouble just to lie to you?
0:16:51 > 0:16:54My brother is dead, that is all I know. It's all I care about.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Perhaps you'll believe me now.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04What is this? Some kind of joke?
0:17:04 > 0:17:06You're a British citizen. Your name is Eve Dalton.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08You work for us,
0:17:08 > 0:17:12you'll earn £500 a year and get your father into hospital.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13The best treatment.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Don't let Kolia have died in vain.
0:17:16 > 0:17:21You can do something to avenge his death. Think of Kolia.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24I do. Every minute of the day.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Keep your secret war, Mr Romer. If it killed my brother,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- I want nothing to do with it. - Just think about it.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33Think what we can do for your father.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37- Do you still have my card? - What? I think so, yes.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Call me on that number.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42That won't be necessary, Mr Romer. I've made up my mind.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46- Good day. - Kolia asked me to ask you!
0:17:46 > 0:17:50Eva, he wanted you to join us!
0:17:50 > 0:17:53It was his dearest wish!
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Thank you.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Feeling calmer now?
0:18:12 > 0:18:13How can I feel calm?
0:18:13 > 0:18:15I can't get my head around it.
0:18:15 > 0:18:19You're a British spy called Eva Delectorskaya.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21That was my name.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Well, go on then. Say something in Russian!
0:18:24 > 0:18:30SHE SPEAKS IN RUSSIAN
0:18:32 > 0:18:36Oh, my God. What does that mean?
0:18:36 > 0:18:39I was saying my daughter is a headstrong young woman
0:18:39 > 0:18:41who sometimes makes mistakes.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Did Dad know anything?
0:18:49 > 0:18:51No. He didn't.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55We were very happy together. That's all that mattered.
0:18:59 > 0:19:05Don't look so perplexed, my love. We all have secrets. Everyone.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08No-one knows even half the truth about anybody else.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Not even when we're very close.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14You went off to Germany for two years, lived in a commune.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17Had a baby and didn't tell me about it for months, did you?
0:19:17 > 0:19:22And then suddenly, "Oh, I met a man in Berlin called Karl-Heinz,
0:19:22 > 0:19:23"who happens to be my professor,
0:19:23 > 0:19:26"and, oh, you have a grandson called Jochen."
0:19:26 > 0:19:29That's not the same. I was in a different situation.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32That's all I'm doing.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Telling you my secrets, that's all.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Excuse me?
0:19:56 > 0:19:59- Yes, Miss. - Where exactly are we?
0:19:59 > 0:20:03Somewhere between Edinburgh and Inverness, Miss.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Miss Dalton?
0:20:38 > 0:20:41Welcome to Lyne Manor. I'm Gerald Laird.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43I'm the director here.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46I was on the phone to Lucas Romer this morning.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49I think he's very pleased you changed your mind.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52What's going on here? A house party?
0:20:52 > 0:20:55No, no! What were you expecting?
0:20:55 > 0:20:59Barracks, a camp... A parade ground.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03No, no! We have entirely different methods of training here.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05We want you to be efficient and enjoy yourself.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08- What kind of training? - It's not what you expect.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- It's very precise.- Very particular.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14We concentrate on very specific things...now we're at war.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17We'll get you started in the morning.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38You have one minute.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Just the very slightest emphasis. It can convey so much.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Let's try it again. You can't possibly be serious.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57You can't possibly be serious.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Almost. Just a squidgin more. Once again.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01You can't possibly be serious.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Arizona, Phoenix. Arkansas, Little Rock.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05California, Sacramento. Colorado, Denver.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08Connecticut, Hartford. Delaware, Dover.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Florida, Tallahassee. Georgia, Atlanta. Hawaii, Honolulu,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Idaho, Boise. Illinois, Springfield. Indiana, Indianapolis.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Iowa, Des Moines...
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Ready.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31There were no dustbins... Sorry, trashcans outside number 10.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34The car in front of number seven had white-wall tyres.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38- ..Andrew Johnson, Ulysses Grant, Rutherford Hayes...- Stop.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union have agreed to a partition of Poland
0:22:52 > 0:22:55following their respective invasions of the country.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57The city of Warsaw has surrendered to German forces
0:22:57 > 0:23:00as of yesterday evening, And the British Prime Minister,
0:23:00 > 0:23:03the Right Honourable Neville Chamberlain...
0:24:28 > 0:24:29All right?
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Count to 100, please, Miss.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57You're the last. Good luck!
0:25:53 > 0:25:56First one home, Miss Dalton!
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Always full of surprises.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Bravo, Miss Dalton.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Thank you.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14GUNSHOTS
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Edward? Have you received your weapons training?
0:26:20 > 0:26:24Eva, you really shouldn't be asking me that, you know.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Of course. Sorry.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- Sergeant? - Yes, Miss Dalton.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39When am I due to have my firearms training?
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Let me see...
0:26:41 > 0:26:46Ah. You're not to receive any firearms training, Miss Dalton.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49- Funny that.- Are you sure?
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Everyone else seems to be trained how to use a gun.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56That's what it says down here, Miss. Mr Romer says it's not necessary.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Oh...
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Paper! Get your paper!
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Paper, please.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Taxi!
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Come along, don't dawdle, ladies. Come along.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39We're going to Drumnadrochit.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Excuse me, can I get to Arthur's Seat from Princes Street?
0:27:42 > 0:27:43I was told it took about an hour.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Eva. Congratulations.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24The red scarf was a masterstroke. Do you like oysters?
0:28:26 > 0:28:29How big was the team following you? Four?
0:28:29 > 0:28:32- Six, actually.- Not many people can beat a six-man follow.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35- Not even sure I could... - I'll take that as a compliment.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38- It is, except you forgot about the close follow.- The close follow?
0:28:38 > 0:28:41I was never more than three or four yards from you.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44You expect a crow to be following you at a safe distance,
0:28:44 > 0:28:46but sometimes crows are on your heels.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49Worth bearing in mind. Still, bravo!
0:28:52 > 0:28:56I meant to ask, why did I not receive any weapons training?
0:28:56 > 0:28:59You won't need weapons in your line of work.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01But what if I'm in mortal danger?
0:29:01 > 0:29:05Well, it's most unlikely, But if you find yourself in mortal danger,
0:29:05 > 0:29:08then use your intuition. Use your animal instincts.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11You always have your nails and your teeth.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14There's two more identities.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16What for?
0:29:16 > 0:29:21Lily Fitzroy and Margery Allerdice.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24What are these for?
0:29:24 > 0:29:26I was getting quite used to being Eve Dalton.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Everyone who works for me is given three identities.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32In the Actuarial and Accounting Services, Limited.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35Exactly, think of it as a perk, a bonus.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38Might need them some day, might be handy. One other thing.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41At some point soon, I'd like you to find yourself a safe house.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45In London, or another big city. Don't tell anyone. Not even me.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47I'll bear it in mind.
0:29:47 > 0:29:51It's something I encourage all my operatives to do. One of my tips.
0:29:51 > 0:29:53Ah yes. One of Romer's Rules.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55- Are there many?- Lots.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58But I'll tell you the most important.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01Never trust anyone. Ever.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05Maybe the only rule you need. Especially not me.
0:30:07 > 0:30:08I'd never trust you.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11You learn quickly, Miss Dalton.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Thank you, Mr Romer.
0:30:17 > 0:30:21Eva Delectorskaya. Who'd have thought?
0:30:21 > 0:30:25People are very...pleased with you.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28Very.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33You ever been to Belgium?
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Yes. Yes, I went to Brussels once. For a weekend.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38Why?
0:30:38 > 0:30:41It's where you're going to be working.
0:30:43 > 0:30:47Training's over, you see.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51Stakes are raised, massively.
0:30:51 > 0:30:56All change. It's real now.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Merci.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45BEEPING OF TELEGRAPH MACHINE
0:31:50 > 0:31:53Just Spain and Portugal for that one, Alfie.
0:31:53 > 0:31:57Let's see what our Spanish news agencies make of this lot.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59They do like our war news, the Spaniards.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02I think Sylvia's got something for me as well.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03Our very own Queen of lies.
0:32:03 > 0:32:07Morning, Eve. Make way, make way, cripple approaching!
0:32:07 > 0:32:09Morning, Angus. Is Romer in?
0:32:09 > 0:32:13His Imperial Majesty has gone to London, so I'm informed.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20Morgen, liebchen. Svenska Posten.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23They picked up your drowned sailors' story.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27"Islandsk fiskebat gick pa en mina utanfoer Narvik. 40 omkomna."
0:32:27 > 0:32:31The Swedish nation stirs... Gold star for Eve.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33Good God, that was fast. I can never get used to it.
0:32:33 > 0:32:37That went out as item number ten on a news bulletin
0:32:37 > 0:32:40on a local French radio station, what, three days ago?
0:32:40 > 0:32:43- And now this... - It's what we trade in, isn't it?
0:32:43 > 0:32:45Lovely stories, so compelling.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48Dream it up. Dress it up.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Send it out into the big wide world to stand on its own two feet.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56Might drop this in to Alfie. News just broken.
0:32:56 > 0:33:00Three new bridges to be built across the River Yser.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03Now that is smart. That's where you're one jump ahead of me.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- Is it really happening? - Maybe, who knows?
0:33:06 > 0:33:10But three lovely new bridges, why not?
0:33:10 > 0:33:14You know, make the Wehrmacht staff officers start altering their maps.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- You are devious, Sylvia. - Yes, I confess,
0:33:17 > 0:33:19I'm a very devious woman, I must say.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24Morning, sweetheart. Looking lovely today.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27- You got Sylvia's press release? - Here we are.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29- Morning, Eve.- Angus tells me Romer's in London.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33I think he was summoned away.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38Fancy a spot of lunch?
0:33:38 > 0:33:43No. You are doing well. Romer will be very pleased.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46Why is Romer in London?
0:33:46 > 0:33:49"Ours not to reason why..."
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Probably talking to Mr X.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Who is Mr X?
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Mr X is our esteemed boss's boss.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03A kind of Cardinal Richelieu figure
0:34:03 > 0:34:08who allows Lucas Romer to do more or less as he pleases.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Have you known Romer long?
0:34:12 > 0:34:17Well... A good few years, now.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Always in AAS?
0:34:21 > 0:34:24Sorry. Curiosity killed the cat.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Shall we be very naughty and have a brandy?
0:34:28 > 0:34:31Yes, let's!
0:34:35 > 0:34:37Ah, there you are, naughty girl.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40We were wondering what had happened to you.
0:34:40 > 0:34:45Oh. My God, bit of a shock.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47You're late.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49Did you buy something to drink? I'm gasping.
0:34:49 > 0:34:54Ah, yes, wine, wine, wine. Perfect. I'll open that.
0:34:54 > 0:34:58I did some shopping on the way back.
0:34:58 > 0:35:01- Thought I was off duty. - You're never off duty.
0:35:03 > 0:35:04Yes, sir.
0:35:04 > 0:35:08Pack an overnight bag. You and I are going on a little trip.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10- Oh, are we going to London? - Sorry.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12A little town in Holland, actually.
0:35:12 > 0:35:17Holland. Little town, right.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49Sorry. Must have nodded off.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51Sweet dreams?
0:35:51 > 0:35:53No, not really.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57Actually, I was dreaming about Kolia...
0:36:02 > 0:36:06- Do you want me to take over? - We're nearly there.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11- Prenslo? - That's where we're going.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15- What's important about Prenslo? - It's on the border with Germany.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39We're perfectly safe. Holland is neutral, remember?
0:36:39 > 0:36:43I had heard. Just like the good old US of A.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46- Why do you say that? - It's true, isn't it?
0:36:46 > 0:36:49I had to do all that American stuff at Lyne.
0:36:49 > 0:36:50I couldn't understand why.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53- You've never been to America, have you?- No.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55Are we going to go into Germany?
0:36:57 > 0:37:00No, but a German is coming to us.
0:37:00 > 0:37:04A Wehrmacht general is defecting.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06I have a feeling this meeting is a direct result
0:37:06 > 0:37:10- of our stories from the Agency. - Score one for the AAS.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13You'd think so, but we're not going to get the credit.
0:37:13 > 0:37:17Our Head of Station from Holland, a very pompous fellow called Fowler,
0:37:17 > 0:37:20has decided he wants to meet this general.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23Coming in to Prenslo personally to bring him in.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27Claim it's all his doing, I feel it in my bones.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30I know these people. Dead wood.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32No, I just want to get the true story.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35Let him know we're on the case also.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38A defecting German officer. Very exciting isn't it?
0:37:38 > 0:37:40On the contrary, it's just routine.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43We're not here to participate, just watch.
0:37:57 > 0:37:59KNOCKING AT DOOR
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Come in.
0:38:16 > 0:38:21Come and have a look. How's your room - all right?
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Fine. Yes.
0:38:25 > 0:38:28The meeting is in that cafe.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31So there will be two British SIS officers there,
0:38:31 > 0:38:35Fowler and his number two, and a Dutch agent.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37A staff car will come through from the German side
0:38:37 > 0:38:41some point between one and three o'clock this afternoon.
0:38:41 > 0:38:42What do I do?
0:38:42 > 0:38:46Go down there, have a long lunch and wait for our German defector.
0:38:46 > 0:38:50Watch, note. You're my eyes and ears.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53I want you to make yourself known to the Dutch agent
0:38:53 > 0:38:55before the German comes across.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58Make sure Fowler and his man doesn't see you.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01- You know the passwords? - Yes, yes.
0:39:01 > 0:39:06- "Have you fire? French Cigarettes. The Hague."- Just stay alert.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09I need to know absolutely everything that happens.
0:39:09 > 0:39:13Every tiny little thing. No matter how insignificant. Right?
0:39:13 > 0:39:15It was what I was trained for.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Let's see if it worked.
0:39:20 > 0:39:24I'll be up here, watching.
0:41:04 > 0:41:08TOILET FLUSHES
0:41:11 > 0:41:15Ein koffie, alstublieft.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42- Do you speak English?- Yes. - Have you any fire?
0:41:48 > 0:41:51Thank you. Do you know where I can buy any French cigarettes?
0:41:51 > 0:41:53You could try Amsterdam.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Of course, thank you so much.
0:43:16 > 0:43:19SHOUTING AND GLASS SMASHING
0:43:35 > 0:43:39HE SHOUTS IN GERMAN
0:43:39 > 0:43:42WINDOW SHATTERS
0:44:10 > 0:44:11GUNSHOTS
0:44:17 > 0:44:20GUNSHOTS
0:44:46 > 0:44:50'I need to know every tiny little thing. No matter how insignificant.'
0:44:51 > 0:44:53'Do you speak English?
0:44:53 > 0:44:56'Every tiny little thing. No matter how insignificant.
0:44:56 > 0:44:58'You're my eyes and ears.'
0:45:07 > 0:45:10You could try Amsterdam.
0:45:16 > 0:45:19Lucas? It's me.
0:45:19 > 0:45:22Lucas?
0:45:24 > 0:45:27Romer?
0:45:35 > 0:45:39Hello, yes, I'm looking for Mr Romer. He checked in this morning.
0:45:41 > 0:45:42He's gone? Where...?
0:45:42 > 0:45:46I see. When did he leave?
0:45:46 > 0:45:5030 minutes ago. Thank you. No, no, no, that's all.
0:45:54 > 0:45:56GLASS SHATTERS
0:46:04 > 0:46:08Hello, yes, I need a number in Belgium, please.
0:46:08 > 0:46:12Ostend. 4721.
0:46:15 > 0:46:19Hello? Agence Nadal? I have a story about a windmill.
0:46:19 > 0:46:21PHONE RINGS
0:46:21 > 0:46:25The windmill is black.
0:46:25 > 0:46:28Eve? Are you all right?
0:46:28 > 0:46:30Yes, I'm fine.
0:46:30 > 0:46:34We thought you might have been taken. Or even...
0:46:34 > 0:46:37No, no. I'm fine. Number one is gone.
0:46:37 > 0:46:39We've heard nothing from number one.
0:46:39 > 0:46:43He reported the incident, then nothing.
0:46:43 > 0:46:47There's no trace of him. I'm here alone in the hotel.
0:46:47 > 0:46:50That's normal procedure. He would have aborted immediately.
0:46:52 > 0:46:53Yes, yes, yes, of course.
0:46:53 > 0:46:56Make your way back here as soon as you can.
0:46:56 > 0:46:58Take a bus.
0:46:58 > 0:47:00Yes. All right.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04All right.
0:47:23 > 0:47:25- Tag!- Tag! - Careful!
0:47:25 > 0:47:30- Hiya.- See you later. Bye, Jochen. - Bye!
0:47:30 > 0:47:32Come on, boys.
0:48:36 > 0:48:39Yes. It arrived on Monday.
0:48:39 > 0:48:42The Franchi PA7 with five-cartridge magazine.
0:48:42 > 0:48:45They do make nice-looking guns, the Italians.
0:48:45 > 0:48:47I want 4BB lead shot, not steel.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50Yes, fine.
0:48:50 > 0:48:53There you are.
0:48:53 > 0:48:58Thank you. Special licence?
0:48:58 > 0:49:01Yes. ID. This is your primary address, is, it Mrs Gilmartin?
0:49:01 > 0:49:05- Rose Cottage, Middleashton? - Yes.
0:49:16 > 0:49:19This will fell a bull elephant.
0:49:19 > 0:49:21Yes.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23My cottage backs on to this wood, you see.
0:49:23 > 0:49:25The foxes keep coming for my hens.
0:49:25 > 0:49:28Ah, foxes, right.
0:49:28 > 0:49:31It will be £275 and 50 pence.
0:49:31 > 0:49:33Yes, I know, thank you.
0:49:33 > 0:49:36- What the fuck is going on, Mum? - Oh, hello, darling.
0:49:36 > 0:49:40- I'm buying a shotgun. - Good hunting, Mrs Gilmartin.
0:49:40 > 0:49:44Thank you so much. Bag.
0:49:44 > 0:49:46- Goodbye.- Bye.
0:49:46 > 0:49:50I think we need to have a proper talk.
0:49:50 > 0:49:53SHE COCKS THE SHOTGUN Jesus! Do you mind?
0:49:56 > 0:49:58- This is madness, you know. - I feel safer now.
0:49:58 > 0:50:01Makes all the difference. I can sleep.
0:50:05 > 0:50:10When you call in future, I want you to ring three times, then hang up,
0:50:10 > 0:50:12then call back, then I'll know it's you.
0:50:12 > 0:50:14We must be careful what we say to each other.
0:50:14 > 0:50:17Are you saying the phone is tapped?
0:50:17 > 0:50:19It's entirely possible.
0:50:19 > 0:50:20And when you drive here,
0:50:20 > 0:50:23I want you to take a little diversion each time,
0:50:23 > 0:50:25make sure no-one's following you.
0:50:25 > 0:50:26What's this all about, Mum?
0:50:26 > 0:50:29The war's been over for 30 years, for God's sake.
0:50:29 > 0:50:33Why're you carrying on with all this cloak and dagger stuff?
0:50:33 > 0:50:37Someone is going to try and kill me very soon.
0:50:37 > 0:50:40Oh, come on. Don't be ridiculous.
0:50:40 > 0:50:44I need you!
0:50:44 > 0:50:48I need you to do something for me.
0:50:48 > 0:50:49What?
0:50:51 > 0:50:54Well, you see, there's only one person who can help me.
0:50:54 > 0:50:57After all this time. Only one.
0:50:57 > 0:50:59Who?
0:50:59 > 0:51:04- Lucas Romer. - Is he still alive?
0:51:04 > 0:51:06How would I know how to find him?
0:51:06 > 0:51:09You could ask your supervisor. You said he knows everyone.
0:51:09 > 0:51:12Bobby von Arnim?
0:51:12 > 0:51:15Well, he's pretty well connected, I suppose.
0:51:15 > 0:51:19Particularly if there's some sort of World War II involvement.
0:51:21 > 0:51:23Why Lucas Romer?
0:51:23 > 0:51:28He's the only one I can trust.
0:51:30 > 0:51:33He's the only one that can help.
0:51:50 > 0:51:55- Splash of water?- Yes, please. Gallons of water.
0:51:57 > 0:52:00Well, I suppose it was too much
0:52:00 > 0:52:04to hope for a new chapter of your fascinating thesis,
0:52:04 > 0:52:10but it's a delight to see you, Ruth Gilmartin,
0:52:10 > 0:52:12for whatever reason.
0:52:12 > 0:52:16Beggars can't be choosers. My day is made.
0:52:16 > 0:52:20- My week is made. Prost.- Cheers.
0:52:24 > 0:52:28So, any luck with the elusive Lucas Romer?
0:52:28 > 0:52:35Well, I've found somebody who... Who might fit the bill.
0:52:35 > 0:52:39He's very discreet, this Romer fellow of yours.
0:52:39 > 0:52:43Who's Who, Debrett's... Nothing at all. However,
0:52:43 > 0:52:48there's a certain Baron Mansfield of Hampton Cleeve,
0:52:48 > 0:52:51a crossbencher in the House of Lords who might be him.
0:52:51 > 0:52:54War years a total blank.
0:52:54 > 0:52:58But he does admit to a Croix de Guerre from Belgium.
0:52:58 > 0:53:02- Must be a clue. - How would I get to see him?
0:53:02 > 0:53:07You want to meet him? Why?
0:53:08 > 0:53:11I've some questions for him.
0:53:11 > 0:53:14You want to be a little careful, my dear.
0:53:14 > 0:53:17Really? Why?
0:53:17 > 0:53:20Because I suspect your Lord Romer was a spy.
0:53:20 > 0:53:23A spy? Nonsense.
0:53:23 > 0:53:27The various noticeable gaps in the information always give it away.
0:53:27 > 0:53:32Then the obscure foreign decoration, no home address given.
0:53:41 > 0:53:45Why do you want to know about Lucas Romer?
0:53:45 > 0:53:51Just, you know, helping an old friend trying to track him down.
0:53:51 > 0:53:55Used to work with him in some organization called AAS Ltd.
0:53:55 > 0:54:00AAS? How do you know about that?
0:54:00 > 0:54:03Nobody knows about AAS.
0:54:03 > 0:54:07- This friend mentioned it. - Can I meet this friend of yours?
0:54:07 > 0:54:11I'd be most interested to ask a few questions.
0:54:11 > 0:54:14- I doubt it. I don't think she... - She?
0:54:14 > 0:54:16Even more interesting.
0:54:16 > 0:54:21Look, you were going to tell me how to meet this Romer.
0:54:21 > 0:54:27Well, with these people, the only thing to do is flatter them.
0:54:27 > 0:54:31Say you're writing a piece for The Times. No, The Telegraph.
0:54:31 > 0:54:34That usually flushes them out.
0:54:35 > 0:54:39Look, I'd better go.
0:54:39 > 0:54:42Do be careful, my dear Ruth.
0:54:44 > 0:54:46These people are...
0:54:48 > 0:54:53Let's say, you'll never know what you uncover once you lift the lid.
0:55:46 > 0:55:47- Good morning.- Good morning.
0:55:52 > 0:55:54Everything all right?
0:55:54 > 0:55:57Well, wasn't in the sunniest of moods.
0:55:57 > 0:55:59Something's up, but he wasn't saying.
0:56:03 > 0:56:05What exactly did you say to him?
0:56:05 > 0:56:08I said, "Do you know where I can buy some French cigarettes?'
0:56:11 > 0:56:13Exactly those words?
0:56:13 > 0:56:16- I think so. - Thinking's not good enough, Eva.
0:56:16 > 0:56:18You need to be absolutely precise.
0:56:18 > 0:56:22- We lost two British agents in Prenslo.- Sorry.
0:56:22 > 0:56:25That's what I said.
0:56:29 > 0:56:31What did he say?
0:56:31 > 0:56:33He said, "You could try Amsterdam,"
0:56:33 > 0:56:36but he should have said, "The Hague".
0:56:36 > 0:56:40Why are we going through all of this again?
0:56:40 > 0:56:43I made it clear in my report. How many times do I have to...
0:56:43 > 0:56:45C wants to talk to you about Prenslo.
0:56:45 > 0:56:50- C? My God. Why me? - It's your evidence that's vital.
0:56:51 > 0:56:55Very important you get it right, Eva.
0:56:55 > 0:56:58The future of AAS is on the line.
0:56:58 > 0:57:02Everything we've created here, everything we've been trying to do
0:57:02 > 0:57:06with our elegant and misleading stories.
0:57:11 > 0:57:13When does he want to see me?
0:57:16 > 0:57:18In about one hour.
0:57:18 > 0:57:20Why are we meeting in a hotel?
0:57:20 > 0:57:22They love meeting in hotels.
0:57:22 > 0:57:2590% of intelligence meetings take place in hotels.
0:57:25 > 0:57:29Just tell them everything you told me. Be completely honest.
0:57:29 > 0:57:32The truth, the whole truth and nothing but.
0:57:32 > 0:57:34Well, there's rather a lot at stake.
0:57:34 > 0:57:37A big new operation for us.
0:57:37 > 0:57:40I have a feeling how you come across this morning will...
0:57:40 > 0:57:43Well, it'll have a bearing on it all.
0:57:43 > 0:57:46Right. Under no pressure at all, then.
0:57:51 > 0:57:54Take a seat. They'll call you when they're ready.
0:57:59 > 0:58:02- Good luck.- Where are you going?
0:58:02 > 0:58:05I'm off to the pub to have a drink.
0:58:05 > 0:58:08I'll come and get you when you're finished.
0:58:08 > 0:58:11- Break a leg.- Thanks.
0:58:22 > 0:58:23DOOR OPENS
0:58:23 > 0:58:25Miss Dalton.
0:58:37 > 0:58:42- ..we need to concentrate on. - I do suggest that you ask these...
0:58:45 > 0:58:47Miss Dalton, thank you for your patience.
0:59:04 > 0:59:07The double password. Who gave you the details?
0:59:07 > 0:59:10Mr Romer.
0:59:12 > 0:59:15You're certain you heard it correctly?
0:59:15 > 0:59:16Yes.
0:59:22 > 0:59:25Why a double password?
0:59:25 > 0:59:29We routinely use double passwords.
0:59:29 > 0:59:31We?
0:59:31 > 0:59:35The team. Those of us who that work under Mr Romer.
0:59:37 > 0:59:41How would you describe Lt Joseph's response to your second question,
0:59:41 > 0:59:45"Do you know where I can buy French cigarettes?"
0:59:46 > 0:59:47I don't understand.
0:59:47 > 0:59:53Was his voice flat? Nervous? Casual? Knowing? Professional?
0:59:53 > 0:59:57Yes, I see. No, I would say, absolutely, that he thought
0:59:57 > 1:00:01he was giving me the correct answer to the second password.
1:00:21 > 1:00:22Excuse me.
1:00:23 > 1:00:26What were you yourself doing in Cafe Backus that day?
1:00:28 > 1:00:30It was Mr Romer's idea.
1:00:30 > 1:00:33I was there to observe what happened
1:00:33 > 1:00:36and to make myself known to the Dutch agent.
1:00:38 > 1:00:40It was entirely Mr Romer's idea.
1:00:42 > 1:00:44Yes.
1:00:44 > 1:00:45I was simply to observe.
1:00:54 > 1:00:57Thank you very much, Miss Dalton. You may go.
1:01:04 > 1:01:06Please - wait outside.
1:01:34 > 1:01:36DOOR CLOSES
1:01:44 > 1:01:46Well done. Excellent.
1:01:46 > 1:01:48What did I do?
1:01:48 > 1:01:50Take the rest of the day off. You deserve it.
1:01:50 > 1:01:51Right. Thanks.
1:01:51 > 1:01:53No, let's have supper. Soho. Frith Street.
1:01:53 > 1:01:56There's an Italian restaurant called Luigi's. I'll see you there at 8.
1:01:56 > 1:01:58- I'm afraid I'm can't...- Nonsense.
1:01:58 > 1:02:00We're celebrating. See you at 8. I'd better get back.
1:02:09 > 1:02:13Yes, I keep getting post for lodgers who moved out months ago.
1:02:13 > 1:02:16No forwarding addresses. What can I do? That's the war for you.
1:02:16 > 1:02:18This is the rent for the next six months.
1:02:18 > 1:02:20I won't expect you'll see much of me
1:02:20 > 1:02:22but I just like to keep my London base safe and sound.
1:02:22 > 1:02:26If only all my ladies were like you, Miss Fitzroy. I'd have no complaints.
1:02:56 > 1:02:59I only come here for the Chianti. Best Chianti in London.
1:02:59 > 1:03:01Aren't we at war with Italy?
1:03:01 > 1:03:03We mustn't let the war interfere with our pleasures.
1:03:03 > 1:03:06There seems to be an endless supply of the stuff, I must say.
1:03:06 > 1:03:09Here's to head office. They'll be paying the bill.
1:03:09 > 1:03:11No, here's to you, Eva. You did very well today.
1:03:11 > 1:03:15Bravo - "brava", rather. You saved our bacon.
1:03:15 > 1:03:16Thank you.
1:03:16 > 1:03:19Was the full board of directors there today?
1:03:19 > 1:03:21Almost.
1:03:21 > 1:03:22Was "X" there?
1:03:27 > 1:03:28He was, as a matter of fact.
1:03:28 > 1:03:30Which one was he?
1:03:31 > 1:03:33You look very...
1:03:35 > 1:03:37Very smart.
1:03:39 > 1:03:42How did I save your bacon?
1:03:42 > 1:03:45The board of directors are convinced that the problem
1:03:45 > 1:03:48at Prenslo arose at the Dutch end of the operation, not the British.
1:03:48 > 1:03:50We were let down by the Dutch - a rotten apple at The Hague.
1:03:50 > 1:03:52What do the Dutch say?
1:03:52 > 1:03:54Oh, they're very angry. They blame us.
1:03:54 > 1:03:58Their executive was forcibly retired, after all.
1:03:58 > 1:03:59Of course.
1:03:59 > 1:04:02Everything you said confirmed their suspicions
1:04:02 > 1:04:04that the Dutch were to blame.
1:04:04 > 1:04:06Well, I'm glad I could be of some use.
1:04:08 > 1:04:11You look very beautiful tonight, Eva.
1:04:11 > 1:04:12Has anyone ever told you that?
1:04:14 > 1:04:17Yes. Now and then.
1:04:25 > 1:04:27Taxi! Taxi!
1:04:30 > 1:04:33At least they're out and about. We'll get one.
1:04:33 > 1:04:34I'm in no hurry.
1:04:38 > 1:04:40Whereabouts do you live? Hampstead?
1:04:40 > 1:04:42Er, Bayswater.
1:04:53 > 1:04:57I suppose we can always get the Tube. What do you think?
1:04:57 > 1:05:01I told you, I'm in no hurry. A taxi will come.
1:05:01 > 1:05:03Yeah, I'm sure.
1:05:59 > 1:06:00A tin of pilchards!
1:06:00 > 1:06:02And a bottle of whisky.
1:06:02 > 1:06:03You do live very frugally.
1:06:03 > 1:06:05Well, I'm not here very often.
1:06:07 > 1:06:09Here you are.
1:06:19 > 1:06:21We shouldn't have done that.
1:06:21 > 1:06:23I'm not complaining1 It was lovely.
1:06:23 > 1:06:25But I'm breaking all my rules!
1:06:25 > 1:06:28Ah, yes, Romer's rules! It's not the end of the world.
1:06:31 > 1:06:35Eva Delectorskaya - who would have thought?
1:06:35 > 1:06:38You never told me why we were celebrating.
1:06:38 > 1:06:40I didn't, did I? Promise to keep a secret.
1:06:40 > 1:06:42Promise.
1:06:42 > 1:06:47Well, we are all going on a little trip abroad.
1:06:47 > 1:06:48Somewhere interesting?
1:06:48 > 1:06:52Yes. Thanks to you, Eva Delectorskaya,
1:06:52 > 1:06:55we're going to the United States of America.
1:06:55 > 1:06:56Ah!
1:06:56 > 1:06:58SHE SQUEALS DELIGHTEDLY
1:07:31 > 1:07:34Do you think your Bobby von Arnim is right?
1:07:34 > 1:07:38I did some more research. The dates fit.
1:07:38 > 1:07:40Everything sort of vaguely fits.
1:07:40 > 1:07:44So I've written to him care of the House of Lords.
1:07:44 > 1:07:47Said I'm a journalist working for the Telegraph.
1:07:47 > 1:07:49Asking for an interview.
1:07:49 > 1:07:50About what?
1:07:52 > 1:07:55I said secret intelligence service operations,
1:07:55 > 1:07:58World War Two, that sort of thing.
1:07:58 > 1:08:00Good.
1:08:00 > 1:08:02That's very good. He'll be intrigued.
1:08:05 > 1:08:08Who are these people trying to kill you, Mum?
1:08:08 > 1:08:11Romer will know. He'll have all the answers.
1:08:11 > 1:08:15When you go to meet him, I want you to dress differently.
1:08:15 > 1:08:17What do you mean?
1:08:17 > 1:08:19Be smart, efficient, attractive.
1:08:19 > 1:08:20Thanks, Mum(!)
1:08:20 > 1:08:23I'll give you a list of questions to ask him.
1:08:23 > 1:08:26Nothing too close to the bone. Just to get his interest piqued.
1:08:26 > 1:08:27Should I mention you?
1:08:27 > 1:08:30No. Absolutely not.
1:08:30 > 1:08:31Leave that to me.
1:08:31 > 1:08:35Once the contact has been made, I'll follow up.
1:08:46 > 1:08:49I found this. In a magazine.
1:08:49 > 1:08:52It was taken about five years ago at his son's wedding.
1:08:52 > 1:08:56There are no other published photos of him as far as I can tell.
1:08:56 > 1:08:59This is what he looks like, now.
1:08:59 > 1:09:01Do you want to see it?
1:09:05 > 1:09:07Yes.
1:09:07 > 1:09:09What if it's not him?
1:09:09 > 1:09:11We'll keep looking.
1:09:43 > 1:09:46Now you believe me.
1:09:46 > 1:09:49I think I always believed you.
1:09:49 > 1:09:51Well, maybe not at first...
1:09:51 > 1:09:53But you won me over.
1:10:00 > 1:10:02Were you ever scared?
1:10:07 > 1:10:10At first it was more interesting than frightening.
1:10:13 > 1:10:18It only got frightening later on. Once we went to America.
1:10:36 > 1:10:37See you Monday.
1:10:37 > 1:10:39What's your weekend?
1:10:39 > 1:10:42One of my radio stations. Upstate. Very boring.

1:17:14 > 1:17:17In London. He was there.
1:17:17 > 1:17:20How fascinating. In London?
1:17:20 > 1:17:22"C" was in the room?
1:17:22 > 1:17:25I believe so. What does that prove?
1:17:29 > 1:17:32His name was Alexandr Nekitch.
1:17:32 > 1:17:35He was going to give me some vital information.
1:17:35 > 1:17:38That's why he committed suicide.

1:18:10 > 1:18:12(..it probably isn't.)
1:18:14 > 1:18:16What's this got to do with me?
1:18:16 > 1:18:21I need you to ask your Russian contacts - Tass, Pravda -
1:18:21 > 1:18:24if there's been any new faces in town.
1:18:24 > 1:18:27See what their word is on Nekitch's death.
1:18:27 > 1:18:32Casual questions, you know, nothing to raise suspicions.
1:18:34 > 1:18:36All right. Of course.
1:18:41 > 1:18:43Must dash.
1:18:52 > 1:18:53PHONE RINGS
1:19:00 > 1:19:02PHONE RINGS
1:19:11 > 1:19:13PHONE CONTINUES RINGING
1:19:15 > 1:19:16Ruth?
1:19:16 > 1:19:18'Hello, Mum.'
1:19:18 > 1:19:19What's happening?
1:19:19 > 1:19:22'Lucas Romer replied.
1:19:22 > 1:19:25'He's prepared to meet me. At his country club.'
1:19:28 > 1:19:30'Mum? Are you still there?'
1:19:33 > 1:19:34Good.
1:19:34 > 1:19:38Come and see me and I'll give you all the information you need. Bye.
1:19:58 > 1:20:00Everything all right?
1:20:00 > 1:20:03I had a couple of ghosts on my tail on the way here.
1:20:03 > 1:20:05Took some shaking. Very efficient. How about you?
1:20:05 > 1:20:09Nothing. I took all precautions. Romer's rules.
1:20:11 > 1:20:12I loved our weekend.
1:20:12 > 1:20:15No one suspects anything?
1:20:15 > 1:20:19Probably. They're all too clever. Little probing questions, you know.
1:20:19 > 1:20:21Morris didn't, though.
1:20:21 > 1:20:23When did you see Morris?
1:20:23 > 1:20:27About an hour ago. He showed me the most horrible scene.
1:20:27 > 1:20:30Some NKVD agent committed suicide in a hotel room.
1:20:30 > 1:20:31NKVD? What's it got to do with Morris?
1:20:31 > 1:20:34He was supposed to meet this man, Nekitch. But he died before.
1:20:34 > 1:20:36Nekitch?
1:20:36 > 1:20:39How odd. Why don't I know about this?
1:20:40 > 1:20:42I assumed you did.
1:20:45 > 1:20:49Anyway, next Wednesday I've got to go to a radio station in Chicago.
1:20:49 > 1:20:51- I thought maybe we could...- No.
1:20:51 > 1:20:54Something else has come up. I want you to go to Washington.
1:20:56 > 1:20:57Now.
1:20:59 > 1:21:01Washington?
1:21:01 > 1:21:02- Coffee?- Please.
1:21:02 > 1:21:04What do I do in Washington?
1:21:04 > 1:21:06One white coffee, and a whiskey and branch water please.
1:21:06 > 1:21:08Yes sir.
1:21:08 > 1:21:10I want you to meet a man called Mason Harding.
1:21:10 > 1:21:13I want you to interview this Mason Harding for Transoceanic.
1:21:13 > 1:21:15Set it up. Make it an official appointment.
1:21:15 > 1:21:19Then, you know, get to know him.
1:21:19 > 1:21:23What do you mean? Make a date? Go for a drink?
1:21:23 > 1:21:24Yes. Make it personal.
1:21:24 > 1:21:26Why?
1:21:28 > 1:21:31Mason Harding is number two to Harry Hopkins.
1:21:31 > 1:21:34Harry Hopkins is the President's right hand.
1:21:34 > 1:21:36Harry Hopkins knows Roosevelt's every thought.
1:21:36 > 1:21:42Now, we need to know what is happening in the Oval Office.
1:21:42 > 1:21:44We need to be THAT close.
1:21:44 > 1:21:45Right now, we're THAT close.
1:21:53 > 1:22:00So I get to know this Mason Harding. We have a few drinks. And then what?
1:22:00 > 1:22:03How personal do you want this to get?
1:22:03 > 1:22:04I'll tell you.
1:22:04 > 1:22:08Maybe I'll pop down to Washington - it's an interesting place.
1:22:08 > 1:22:10You can do it.
1:22:10 > 1:22:13No man can stand in your way when you set your mind to it.
1:22:13 > 1:22:15Look at me.
1:22:15 > 1:22:17I'll take that as a compliment.
1:22:17 > 1:22:20Here's the information. And money. Buy yourself a new wardrobe.
1:22:20 > 1:22:22A change of look would be wise.
1:22:26 > 1:22:28How will you feel if I get to know this man well?
1:22:28 > 1:22:30How I feel has nothing to do with it.
1:22:30 > 1:22:33How YOU feel has nothing to do with it either.
1:22:33 > 1:22:34We're losing this war, Eva.
1:22:34 > 1:22:37And we'll lose it for sure if we don't get the Americas on our side.
1:22:37 > 1:22:39It's as simple as that.
1:22:39 > 1:22:43And this Mason Harding is the weak link? The way in?
1:22:43 > 1:22:45Yes.
1:22:45 > 1:22:46We think so.
1:22:52 > 1:22:54It's very important, Eva.
1:22:57 > 1:22:58Of course.
1:23:15 > 1:23:21Why would Morris think you'd be interested in a Russian agent's death?
1:23:21 > 1:23:23He wanted me to sound out the Russian press agencies.
1:23:23 > 1:23:25See what the word was.
1:23:25 > 1:23:27Really? Most unusual.
1:23:29 > 1:23:33Anyway. Call me when you've checked into the hotel.
1:23:33 > 1:23:36I'll give you all the information you need.
1:23:36 > 1:23:40This is Operation Eldorado. Mason Harding is "Gold". Good luck.
1:24:20 > 1:24:23Just say that Morris Devereux was your uncle. No more.
1:24:23 > 1:24:26Then watch for his reactions. Very closely.
1:24:26 > 1:24:28Any little sign.
1:24:28 > 1:24:30You've already told me that. Why are you so nervous?
1:24:30 > 1:24:32You're making me jumpy.
1:24:32 > 1:24:33I'm not nervous.
1:24:33 > 1:24:36We've gone over everything. I know what to do.
1:24:36 > 1:24:38Look, I'll miss my train.
1:24:38 > 1:24:42Relax. I'm just going to have a chat with a man.
1:24:42 > 1:24:44It's not that simple.
1:24:44 > 1:24:45It's very important to me.
1:24:47 > 1:24:51Lucas Romer, he's the only one that can help me.
1:24:51 > 1:24:53The only one.
1:24:53 > 1:24:56Look, I'll call you when I get back. It'll be fine.
1:25:36 > 1:25:37CAR HORN BEEPS
1:25:37 > 1:25:39All right!
1:26:01 > 1:26:04I'm showing you to the ladies' waiting room, miss.
1:26:04 > 1:26:05How can you tell if I'm a lady?
1:26:05 > 1:26:07I beg your pardon?
1:26:07 > 1:26:08Nothing, nothing.
1:26:08 > 1:26:10If you wish to use the convenience,
1:26:10 > 1:26:14could you ring the bell and wait. Somebody will be along.
1:26:14 > 1:26:16Very reassuring.
1:26:16 > 1:26:19Lord Romer will be with you shortly.
1:26:35 > 1:26:38Excuse me, Miss Dalton. Mr Harding will see you now.
1:26:40 > 1:26:42Lord Romer will see you in the library.
1:26:49 > 1:26:51Miss Dalton. Do come in.
1:27:02 > 1:27:06Lord Romer? How do you do. Ruth Gilmartin.
1:27:16 > 1:27:20Eight out of ten Americans want nothing to do with your war.
1:27:20 > 1:27:21Look, we're not kids.
1:27:21 > 1:27:23My personal situation has nothing to do with this.
1:27:23 > 1:27:27You have to watch for the tiniest thing. It may save your life.
1:27:27 > 1:27:28Hello?
1:27:28 > 1:27:29What is it?
1:27:29 > 1:27:31I think I'm falling in love with you.
1:27:31 > 1:27:34There wasn't a plan. I didn't have a plan.
1:27:34 > 1:27:37If you'd just followed the instructions, none of this would've happened.
1:27:37 > 1:27:40People only betray their country for three reasons -
1:27:40 > 1:27:42Revenge, money and blackmail.
1:27:42 > 1:27:43Things aren't adding up.
1:27:43 > 1:27:44Where's the gun?
1:27:44 > 1:27:46He trained me, he knew me incredibly well.
1:27:46 > 1:27:48GUNSHOT FIRES
1:27:48 > 1:27:49Someone wants all of us dead.
