0:00:02 > 0:00:05This programme contains scenes which some viewers may find upsetting,

0:00:05 > 0:00:08some violent scenes and some scenes of a sexual nature from the start.

0:00:08 > 0:00:09These streets we vow to protect.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13Each day I hope I might have seen the last of their cruelty.

0:00:13 > 0:00:15- Hold them! - 55 lives given up for 350,000.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17Who is the child?

0:00:17 > 0:00:19The girl is Reid's daughter.

0:00:19 > 0:00:20Buckley, where is she?

0:00:27 > 0:00:29She's pregnant.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32I believe it was the first happiness I ever knew -

0:00:32 > 0:00:33to look upon your face.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Mr Reid, Sir. Your Mathilda.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41My girl is here. Somewhere.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47Who am I, Mathilda?

0:00:47 > 0:00:48You are my daddy.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56I draw a direct line between the slaughter of the 55 and your wife.

0:00:56 > 0:00:57Father.

0:00:59 > 0:01:03Good lady Hart. That money, which her man Capshaw plotted to thieve,

0:01:03 > 0:01:05it is her father's money.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09We might act now. See good done.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17- You are finished. - Yes, Mr Swift, I expect I am.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33CHAMBERLAIN: Your Majesty, the world has disembarked.

0:01:33 > 0:01:38Here, in London, Imperial Service troops from each and every dominion

0:01:38 > 0:01:40make camp in Hyde Park.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45Your capital opens its arms to your Empire.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48And here that Empire will pay tribute to your reign,

0:01:48 > 0:01:51to this Diamond Jubilee.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54From the Palace, you will lead the procession.

0:01:54 > 0:01:5745,000 men-at-arms,

0:01:57 > 0:02:02cavalry from your homeland, Munshi. Bengal Lancers.

0:02:02 > 0:02:07It will be a living gazetteer of your realms, Majesty.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11The streets will be lined, the joy unconfined.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Following your lead up Constitution Hill,

0:02:16 > 0:02:20St James' to Pall Mall, Trafalgar Square, the Strand until St Paul's,

0:02:20 > 0:02:25where the Bishop of London will offer thanks.

0:03:16 > 0:03:17Silence, silence!

0:03:17 > 0:03:21Assistant Commissioner of Police Augustus Dove will now give address.

0:03:21 > 0:03:27Ladies, gentlemen, people of Whitechapel,

0:03:27 > 0:03:29as the wider city prepares itself for celebration,

0:03:29 > 0:03:33the like of which we have never seen,

0:03:33 > 0:03:38Scotland Yard invites you here today with double incentive -

0:03:38 > 0:03:40to introduce you to your new Station House,

0:03:40 > 0:03:43a magnificent building, I'm sure you'll agree.

0:03:47 > 0:03:52But first, to congratulate Inspector Drake and his division

0:03:52 > 0:03:57on their rigorous pursuit and capture of the man who murdered the rabbi, Leon Ratovski.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01- APPLAUSE - Hear, hear!

0:04:02 > 0:04:06The sentence of death has now been handed down on his killer,

0:04:06 > 0:04:12a sentence we at Scotland Yard do, albeit with sadness, welcome.

0:04:12 > 0:04:17Now, come - Mr Drake is keen to show you his new home.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28Mr Drake, will you explain?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33It is a telephone.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36The line here is connected throughout the station,

0:04:36 > 0:04:39a system of communication which allows the Inspector and his men

0:04:39 > 0:04:42to speak to each other wherever they work.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46Assistance may be requested, information passed on.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Young boys will go to school,

0:04:48 > 0:04:51not run policemen's lunch orders for them.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52LAUGHTER

0:04:52 > 0:04:55Of this, however, we are particularly proud.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58It was well known Mr Drake's predecessor

0:04:58 > 0:05:02kept a criminal archive in the rafters of the old Leman Street station.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Sergeant Drummond.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Mr Reid's files were photographed and their size

0:05:06 > 0:05:09then shrunk by a ratio of a 160 to one.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13We now add to them daily. Each and every reported villainy, read here.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17Imagine a Stanhope - but of more applicable function.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20What do you call it, Inspector?

0:05:21 > 0:05:23It is the Micro-Reader.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47I prefer these places empty, it must be said.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51But it is not their place to be empty.

0:05:51 > 0:05:52LAUGHTER

0:05:52 > 0:05:54We laugh, I know.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57But there is a truth buried in that laughter.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00We must not forget that the hoped-for conclusion of police work

0:06:00 > 0:06:04is not a prison groaning with convicts...

0:06:04 > 0:06:06but no prisons at all.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11Inspector Drake, no sooner does your new master at Scotland Yard

0:06:11 > 0:06:12hand you down new premises

0:06:12 > 0:06:15than he seeks to make you surplus to requirements.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17It is a redundancy I would welcome, Miss Castello.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Wouldn't we all, Mr Drake?

0:06:20 > 0:06:23It is a utopia.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Inspector Drake, might I bring you back to less, er, elevated matters?

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Go on, Miss Castello.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37As regards the murderer of Rabbi Ratovski,

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Mr Dove tells us the sentence of death

0:06:39 > 0:06:43handed down on the Whitechapel Golem is welcomed at Scotland Yard.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Do you here at H Division echo that sentiment?

0:06:46 > 0:06:49I would prefer to call him by his name.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52It was your newspaper dubbed him otherwise.

0:06:52 > 0:06:53Not so, Inspector.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55We simply echoed the frightened voices

0:06:55 > 0:06:57heard amongst the Jewry of Whitechapel.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Nonetheless, the Inspector makes sound argument.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04This borough here has a taste for monsters,

0:07:04 > 0:07:06for their birthing and nurture.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Then let us hear of the man behind that monster.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Will we have his given name from you, Mr Drake?

0:07:11 > 0:07:14You know it. It is Isaac Bloom.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16A mathematician.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Part of the same Whitechapel Jewry,

0:07:18 > 0:07:21and well known to H Division, was he not?

0:07:21 > 0:07:24He gave service to your predecessor more than once, so I understand.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27He may have, Miss Castello, but that does not alter the facts.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30Men may change. Bloom is no different.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33The Rabbi Leon Ratovski visited London from Paris.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Isaac Bloom killed him in a Whitechapel lane-way

0:07:35 > 0:07:37and will hang for it.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40Let those facts be known, if you will, Miss Castello,

0:07:40 > 0:07:42then let him be forgot.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56HE MUTTERS IN HEBREW

0:08:08 > 0:08:09Sergeant.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13- Detective Sergeant. - I need to see the old man.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16Mr Drake has guests, as you know.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18He must hear this, however.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Frank, save the shoe leather.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24I'm sure it must be near run through,

0:08:24 > 0:08:26and new boots are costly.

0:08:30 > 0:08:31HE SCOFFS

0:08:32 > 0:08:36Were it not for the fact I think you'd enjoy it too much,

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I'd take this piece of machinery and I'd shove it up your...

0:08:39 > 0:08:42TELEPHONE RINGS

0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Hello?- 'There's a murdered man washed up on the Western Dock, sir.'

0:08:45 > 0:08:47I'll be there, Sergeant.

0:08:48 > 0:08:49Sir, I...

0:08:49 > 0:08:51- You go, Inspector. - Thank you. Excuse me.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Oh, Mr Drake... One moment, please.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03This, today, it is much appreciated.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06I know such work is not to your taste.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08I understand, sir. It is important.

0:09:08 > 0:09:09The men feel their work is seen

0:09:09 > 0:09:11and such witnessing gives encouragement.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14You have me, Inspector.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Stand aside. Police, stand aside.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41CHATTER

0:09:43 > 0:09:47Mr Drake, my men and I, we are happy to see you.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49The elected steward for Dock, Wharf, Riverside

0:09:49 > 0:09:51and General Labourers' Union - happy?

0:09:51 > 0:09:53I shall remember the day, Mr Teague.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56CHUCKLING

0:09:56 > 0:09:58You are?

0:09:58 > 0:10:02Name's Croker, Croker's Wharf, two ticks upriver.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05Where that reefer shall now be getting its freight unshipped

0:10:05 > 0:10:07if you will not say otherwise, Inspector.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Forgive me, I am brought here for a dead man,

0:10:09 > 0:10:11not to arbitrate in a labour dispute.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- WORKER SHOUTS IN BACKGROUND - Ah, well...

0:10:17 > 0:10:18Allow me, Inspector.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Indian fellow.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Lascar working the ships, most like, from his colouring.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35It is him what has put him there.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38That is slander, Roy. Do you accuse us of murder?

0:10:38 > 0:10:40Yes, Mr Teague, do you?

0:10:41 > 0:10:44No, I say only that this wharfinger

0:10:44 > 0:10:46has found a floater on the night tide,

0:10:46 > 0:10:48sought to gig it downriver and land it here,

0:10:48 > 0:10:51and see these men go work this come sunrise.

0:10:51 > 0:10:54That is 500 frozen carcasses from New Zealand -

0:10:54 > 0:10:58mutton, lamb, pig - 50 kegs of butter alongside.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00As good a day's work as these men have known all month,

0:11:00 > 0:11:02booked for lumping right here.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05But if you will now close this dock to mount investigation,

0:11:05 > 0:11:08then he, who pays no dues to this union

0:11:08 > 0:11:10and lives outside its regulation,

0:11:10 > 0:11:12will have his lightermen out on the water in two jiffies

0:11:12 > 0:11:14and take that cargo as his own.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19- This true, Mr Croker? - It is not, Mr Drake.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21At least, the first part is not.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24The second, that those frozen carcasses be brought ashore

0:11:24 > 0:11:26for warehousing and distribution, that is true.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29And I shall certainly be bidding for such work.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31You cannibal, Croker! This...

0:11:31 > 0:11:34That murdered man is nought but some Indian gugu, Inspector,

0:11:34 > 0:11:37for whom you would deprive London men of their work!

0:11:37 > 0:11:39The man's origin is not pertinent, Mr Teague.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41You're right about one thing, however.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43I shall be closing this dock for investigation.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48As for who works and profits, well, that is not my lookout.

0:11:50 > 0:11:51Sergeant.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55See this dockside picked and cleared for evidence.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57And for yourself, Inspector?

0:11:57 > 0:12:00I'm going to drag our surgeon from his pit.

0:12:01 > 0:12:02All right.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15KNOCK AT DOOR

0:12:15 > 0:12:17Chief piggy, Captain Jackson.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Jackson!

0:12:49 > 0:12:51SNORING

0:13:15 > 0:13:16Morning, Chief.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19How are thee?

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- One man.- Four crowns.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Best be quick. There's someplace I need to be this afternoon.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30One crown, you work efficiently, you will be free to leave.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32Two crowns, two shillings and a sixpence,

0:13:32 > 0:13:34and I leave when I say I leave.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41VENDORS HAWK THEIR WARES

0:13:43 > 0:13:44Jackson...

0:13:45 > 0:13:46Drake.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51- Come on. - BOY:- Read all about it!

0:13:51 > 0:13:53- You have the look. VENDOR:- Sir.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55What look?

0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Bulldog swallows wasp. - Read all about it!

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Susan Hart to hang!

0:14:04 > 0:14:06- This man.- Read all about it!

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Yeah, what of him?

0:14:10 > 0:14:12- In two days' time, we are told. - Yeah, I can do math, Drake.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14And yet you still make no plans to visit.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Visit whom?

0:14:19 > 0:14:23Your wife, she who languishes in Newgate these three years.

0:14:23 > 0:14:28- She who'll soon no longer be your wife on account of the fact she will be...- No, Drake.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29No plans.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37No surprises.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Do you understand, Inspector?

0:14:39 > 0:14:42- This week of all weeks. - Secretary Chamberlain...

0:14:43 > 0:14:45..it is a happy occasion.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48You relax, get yourself happy.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53I shall get happy, Mr Constantine,

0:14:53 > 0:14:56when you have delivered to us what we have asked you to deliver.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58This munshi, the Queen's manservant,

0:14:58 > 0:15:00his influence might be feared by her household,

0:15:00 > 0:15:03but my spies have no such worries, sir.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05Could be he's cleaner than you gentlemen imagine.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07By which you imply

0:15:07 > 0:15:09you are yet to find anything demonstrates otherwise?

0:15:09 > 0:15:13- We watch, sir. We look. - Well, look harder.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16He and his moon-faced friends,

0:15:16 > 0:15:20there are extreme beliefs amongst them.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23And extreme beliefs beget extreme action, Inspector.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28We must put an end to this Muslim Patriotic League.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32HE SNIFFS

0:15:32 > 0:15:33It's left to right.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36It's quick work.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39There is little by which to place him.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41But he is of South Asian origin.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46Well, that's a keen eye on you, Drake.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48I thought at first...lascar.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53But his hands, there's no callusing from the sea work.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55His nails are well kept and unbroken.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58Ah!

0:16:03 > 0:16:05There's, er...

0:16:05 > 0:16:07There's some remains of soil from the tread of his boots.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13But that does not look like river mud to me.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Not our river, leastways.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18And you pronounce this from which analysis?

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Well, it's not black enough.

0:16:24 > 0:16:25Yes.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30I think that analysis might be improved upon, however.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32It's a warm day, let's put him on ice.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Ratovski?

0:16:52 > 0:16:55I think Mr Ratovski may leave us, may he not, now that...

0:16:56 > 0:16:58..Bloom's been sentenced?

0:16:59 > 0:17:02Still something to credit - a man like that?

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Such savagery.

0:17:04 > 0:17:08Why? Cos Isaac Bloom was a man of thought?

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Isn't a man's mind the darkest part of all?

0:17:11 > 0:17:13It was a mind much loved by Reid.

0:17:15 > 0:17:19"Never knew a man of such clear-eyed, intellectual courage."

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Those were his words.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Yes, they were.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25But Edmund Reid was wrong about plenty

0:17:25 > 0:17:27in the course of his life here.

0:18:19 > 0:18:22Well, Mr Reid, how is the water?

0:18:22 > 0:18:24Bracing, Mr Ramuz, even in June.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25Bathing is not recommended.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28- SHE CHUCKLES - Here, Edmund.- Ah, thank you.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- SHE LAUGHS - And so your...calculations?

0:18:33 > 0:18:36The running ebb current runs at ten and a half,

0:18:36 > 0:18:38the flow, a notch above nine.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42These two currents produce what I understand to be a tidal scour.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44It's a process of erosion that moves the beach materials -

0:18:44 > 0:18:46the sand and the stone and so forth -

0:18:46 > 0:18:48to the eastern side of the pier.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52- Away from where the housing is built.- Yes.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Removal of the freshwater oyster beds

0:18:54 > 0:18:56compounded the issue... in my opinion.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59It may have, but this is to be a resort town, not a fish farm.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04How do you believe it might be stopped?

0:19:04 > 0:19:06I'm not sure I know, sir.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08It is the sea, after all.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12I hope, Edmund, you'll forgive my father his sharpness.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15He has much invested here. It's understandable.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19Should Hampton-on-Sea become Hampton-in-the-Sea,

0:19:19 > 0:19:21we will have lost everything.

0:19:24 > 0:19:29And so, do you see, Edmund, how your coming here is a boon to us,

0:19:29 > 0:19:31the community we build here...

0:19:32 > 0:19:35..and to myself also?

0:19:36 > 0:19:38My Alfred gone,

0:19:38 > 0:19:41I'd come to think my life would be solely dedicated to Valerie's.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44Yes, the, er, friendship our daughters have made...

0:19:46 > 0:19:47A great pleasure to us all.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53What a day we shall have, come the Jubilee, the four of us together.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00SHE MOANS

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Why is she dressed as the Queen? And do they do, Mathilda?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Shh, Valerie, watch.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Mmm!

0:20:10 > 0:20:12He makes a kind of love to her.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Ahh...

0:20:14 > 0:20:16- Ah!- Mathilda, our train.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Christ, Val, we must run.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- What?- The new police station.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44That is Samuel Drummond. His friends call him Drum.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46And that is Francis Thatcher.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Which do you consider the more handsome?

0:20:48 > 0:20:50- Drum.- Yes.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Come. We may cut through to the new underground station here,

0:20:53 > 0:20:55direct from Whitechapel to Victoria.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13TRAIN CHUGS

0:21:24 > 0:21:26CHATTERING

0:21:29 > 0:21:31ROSE SNIFFLES

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Rose, please, stop your crying.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Forgive me, Miss Susan.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45It's just...

0:21:45 > 0:21:46It's only that...

0:21:47 > 0:21:50it becomes so real, to think that...

0:21:52 > 0:21:54- Mr Theakson?- Yes, Miss S?

0:21:54 > 0:21:58- Will you take Connor for a few moments?- Course, Miss S.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Give me that.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06WOMEN CHATTER

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Rose, understand.

0:22:18 > 0:22:23I am resigned that the law of this land allowed me this time to...

0:22:23 > 0:22:25birth and nurse my son.

0:22:27 > 0:22:28Well, it is a blessing.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33But my sentence was always my sentence.

0:22:33 > 0:22:34The death that I brought, Rose...

0:22:36 > 0:22:38..it must be paid down.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44And tell me, how fares the Captain?

0:22:48 > 0:22:49It is a wonder...

0:22:50 > 0:22:55..that you can ask after him with such kindness, Miss Susan.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00He is getting about his same old games.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03Not one thought in this world for you...

0:23:04 > 0:23:07- ..or his son.- Come, Rose.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12He and I, all that we have lived through.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18I will not have rancour in my heart.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23Not now, and above all, not for him.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52All who love you must grieve, Miss Susan.

0:23:52 > 0:23:53Grieve.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56And not suspect a thing.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Broken hearts are a small price to pay for freedom.

0:24:07 > 0:24:08DOOR BANGS IN DISTANCE

0:24:08 > 0:24:13The low-to-medium concentrations of calcium and zinc in the soil

0:24:13 > 0:24:14would suggest parkland.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18Further, we have some copper - northern and central parkland.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21Hyde Park, Regent's Park, Hampstead Heath, Primrose Hill...

0:24:21 > 0:24:24No, no, no. It's too wide a net. Do better.

0:24:24 > 0:24:25Gladly.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28There's little arsenic within, however.

0:24:28 > 0:24:29Well, that's a pity.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32Oh, that's cute, Benito.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34Northern parks would show an elevated arsenic count,

0:24:34 > 0:24:38so you can strike Hampstead and Primrose from the list, therefore.

0:24:38 > 0:24:39Now here.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43These are redworm eggs.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48Redworms are horse parasites, shat out in manure.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50There's a parade in this city on Tuesday,

0:24:50 > 0:24:54a parade involving a great number of infantry and an equal number of cavalry.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57And in which park does the cavalry make its encampment?

0:24:57 > 0:25:00- Hyde Park, Bengal Lancers. - Drake, you'll need this.

0:25:09 > 0:25:10HORSE SNORTS

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Police. Who is it commands here?

0:25:30 > 0:25:32HORSE NEIGHS

0:25:36 > 0:25:39I am Risaldar-Major Al-Qadir. These are my men.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43And do you currently lack for one, sir?

0:25:43 > 0:25:44Lack?

0:25:44 > 0:25:48- A man, have you any missing? - Why do you ask?

0:25:48 > 0:25:50There's a dead man of your stock

0:25:50 > 0:25:52found on the shore of a Whitechapel dock this morning.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Hyde Park dirt and horse shit about him.

0:25:55 > 0:25:56Oh, and he, er...

0:25:57 > 0:25:59..he wore this.

0:26:07 > 0:26:12Ah... Major Al-Qadir, our surgeon, Captain Jackson.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Captain...of what?

0:26:14 > 0:26:16US Army, sir.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Now, Drake, you and the Major are all set.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26- Where is it you go? - That place I needed to be.

0:26:27 > 0:26:28I need to be there.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35May I show him to you, sir?

0:26:45 > 0:26:47He is not one of my soldiers.

0:26:52 > 0:26:53No!

0:26:53 > 0:26:54You do not move, sir!

0:27:00 > 0:27:02His name is...

0:27:02 > 0:27:05Mr Sayid Kalim Abdul Al-Qadir,

0:27:05 > 0:27:08graduate of Balliol College, Oxford,

0:27:08 > 0:27:12barrister-at-law at the Bar of England and Wales, and...

0:27:15 > 0:27:16..he was my son.

0:27:32 > 0:27:33Mr Judge, good morning.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35- Mr Cotter. - Pleasure to see you once more.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39Now, no-one is on trial. We are simply here for the court's decision.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41And that decision foregone and easy, correct?

0:27:41 > 0:27:43Correct.

0:27:43 > 0:27:44A formality.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49Now, this might be an apposite moment, Mr Judge, for the, um...

0:27:51 > 0:27:53..final settlement of my firm's fees.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Oh, er...right, yeah. Certainly.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02As agreed, Mr Cotter.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06Well, Mr Judge, shall we dance?

0:28:09 > 0:28:11HE SIGHS

0:28:11 > 0:28:13- GAVEL BANGS - All rise.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22What we saw that man do earlier to that woman.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25Do you think my father has done that to your mother yet?

0:28:25 > 0:28:27How was your day?

0:28:27 > 0:28:30Tennyson and trigonometry - my stock in trade.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34This is soot. How do you have soot on you?

0:28:34 > 0:28:38I have no idea. How could it possibly be soot?

0:28:38 > 0:28:39My next question, Mathilda.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42- How indeed?- Come, Father.

0:28:42 > 0:28:46It is only a smear on a collar, and you are no longer a policeman.

0:28:59 > 0:29:01Open it, please.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10Thank you.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Right, all this, the details of his work -

0:29:15 > 0:29:18see it boxed and ordered, returned to Sergeant Drummond.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29Did your son share the details of his life with you, sir?

0:29:29 > 0:29:31Share?

0:29:32 > 0:29:35Where he went, who he knew. What he thought.

0:29:37 > 0:29:41We spoke for only one half of an hour three days past,

0:29:41 > 0:29:43and that the sole conversation

0:29:43 > 0:29:46in which he and I have partook in almost six years.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49- Since he left India?- Correct.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54My Sayid.

0:29:54 > 0:29:55- That is he?- It is.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58Forgive me, but when you and your son spoke recently, sir,

0:29:58 > 0:30:01did he say when he might be leaving here?

0:30:01 > 0:30:03- Leaving?- Going home, sir.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05This was his home, Inspector.

0:30:05 > 0:30:09London, England. He was an English gentleman.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11Oh.

0:30:16 > 0:30:20Sir, do you know this other man, this Mr Hafeez?

0:30:20 > 0:30:22With regret, I do.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26He made friend of my son in Pune, Deccan College.

0:30:26 > 0:30:28His name is Imran Hafeez.

0:30:28 > 0:30:30But they did not travel to Oxford together?

0:30:31 > 0:30:33They did not.

0:30:33 > 0:30:37And this low opinion you suffer of Mr Hafeez?

0:30:37 > 0:30:40He is a bad boy. No respect.

0:30:43 > 0:30:44Common, you understand.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Oh, I do.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50Ask about - the last time anyone employed here

0:30:50 > 0:30:52spoke to Sayid Al-Qadir or Mr Hafeez.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02- HUBBUB - Order! Order in the court!

0:31:04 > 0:31:06Order. Order!

0:31:06 > 0:31:08Order, I say!

0:31:12 > 0:31:15You said it was a formality.

0:31:15 > 0:31:19You assured me. It's taken us 18 months to get here, Cotter!

0:31:19 > 0:31:21Come, Mr Judge. A lawyer's assurances.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43Edmund, might I...?

0:31:45 > 0:31:47You do not invite us in,

0:31:47 > 0:31:52and I understand why, that it would not seem proper, but...

0:31:52 > 0:31:55there is present propriety,

0:31:55 > 0:31:58and there is a future where we might,

0:31:58 > 0:32:00you and I, construct a world

0:32:00 > 0:32:03where such considerations need no longer be met.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09Edmund? What...?

0:32:11 > 0:32:14- Who is she?- Miss Goren!

0:32:14 > 0:32:15Deborah.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18Hello, Edmund.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23You had not heard?

0:32:23 > 0:32:26I, er, no longer take the London papers.

0:32:26 > 0:32:27Of course. Why would you?

0:32:29 > 0:32:31Mathilda, I think you might get to your books.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33My books are read, Father.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37Then if you wish, as you say you do, that I will send you to Oxford,

0:32:37 > 0:32:40I suggest you read them again, or I will call on Mr Worthing in the morning

0:32:40 > 0:32:43and say that my daughter would make an admirable secretarial assistant,

0:32:43 > 0:32:46and that will be that for your learning. Now, leave us.

0:32:54 > 0:32:56How on earth did you find me?

0:32:56 > 0:32:58Ah, it was not so hard.

0:32:58 > 0:33:00You are still talked of in Whitechapel.

0:33:00 > 0:33:02I expect you will be forever.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05There's still no policeman afforded greater respect than Edmund Reid.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07Bennet Drake is not afforded respect?

0:33:07 > 0:33:10No, of course, but it is Mr Drake who...

0:33:10 > 0:33:14Who led the investigation which now sees Isaac Bloom facing execution.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Isaac did not do such a thing. It is not within him.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20And who else shares this conviction?

0:33:20 > 0:33:21Only myself...

0:33:22 > 0:33:23..and I hoped...

0:33:24 > 0:33:26..perhaps yourself.

0:33:28 > 0:33:33So, you thought that I would now travel to London,

0:33:33 > 0:33:37to Whitechapel, and challenge the care and rigour

0:33:37 > 0:33:40with which my friend has prosecuted this case?

0:33:40 > 0:33:43Forgive me, Miss Goren, but that is a leap of faith

0:33:43 > 0:33:45based on no other logic but your own. I will not do it.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47No, it is you who must forgive me.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49I am in your home and I've raised you to anger.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52Thank you, both of you, for your hospitality.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57No, please, stay. Stay with us, eat with us.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01Please, Deborah, I insist. So will Mathilda.

0:34:05 > 0:34:06Thank you.

0:34:08 > 0:34:10HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:34:14 > 0:34:15I gave thanks when it was said

0:34:15 > 0:34:18that your daughter had been returned to you.

0:34:18 > 0:34:21I remembered your conviction, and...

0:34:21 > 0:34:22and I admire you, Edmund.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24It cannot be an easy thing

0:34:24 > 0:34:26to grant her the freedom you now so clearly do.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31I'm not sure I understand what you mean, Deborah.

0:34:32 > 0:34:36I saw her and her friend - they boarded my train at Victoria.

0:34:36 > 0:34:38I assumed that...

0:34:39 > 0:34:41Soot.

0:34:41 > 0:34:43Mathilda Reid!

0:34:44 > 0:34:46Mathilda!

0:34:46 > 0:34:47In here!

0:34:48 > 0:34:52Soot, Mathilda. Soot.

0:34:52 > 0:34:56- London. Where is it you go? - To our home, Father.

0:34:56 > 0:34:58It is not our home. Not any lo...

0:34:58 > 0:35:00Good God, did you take Valerie Freeman with you?

0:35:00 > 0:35:03- To Whitechapel?!- She was curious.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06And why should she not be? It is a fascinating place.

0:35:06 > 0:35:09And do you not think, Mathilda, on what might happen to her? To you?

0:35:09 > 0:35:12You of all... You know what happens in Whitechapel!

0:35:12 > 0:35:13I do. I never forget.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16And do you see, my darling, how this pains me?

0:35:16 > 0:35:19I brought you here, I brought us both here

0:35:19 > 0:35:22so that in time, these memories might be forgot.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24But I am older now. Grown.

0:35:27 > 0:35:31And I understand something I think you do not, Father -

0:35:31 > 0:35:34that I am made, and cannot be remade.

0:35:35 > 0:35:39Do you not think, despite all that you have constructed here,

0:35:39 > 0:35:41that the same might be true of you?

0:35:44 > 0:35:47You will go to your room, Mathilda,

0:35:47 > 0:35:49and there will be no more of this, do you understand?

0:35:52 > 0:35:54No more, Mathilda.

0:36:00 > 0:36:02MEN SHOUT

0:36:06 > 0:36:09HE MUMBLES

0:36:27 > 0:36:30JACKSON: I do not write the law in this goddamn country, Caitlin,

0:36:30 > 0:36:32neither am I a judge, both...

0:36:33 > 0:36:36..of which resolve that in the absence of a corpse,

0:36:36 > 0:36:39seven years must pass before your father be declared dead

0:36:39 > 0:36:42and his worldly goods handed to his surviving heir...

0:36:43 > 0:36:45..our son.

0:36:45 > 0:36:48Forgive me, but is this not the reason why we hired a lawyer?

0:36:48 > 0:36:51A lawyer only makes the argument. He... He don't rule.

0:36:51 > 0:36:54And this man - Cotter.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57He was the best you could find?

0:36:57 > 0:36:58He was.

0:37:00 > 0:37:04And by "best", Matthew, I do mean most costly.

0:37:04 > 0:37:06I paid...

0:37:06 > 0:37:07what I could muster.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10SHE GASPS

0:37:10 > 0:37:13Well, I am glad to know what value you place on my life,

0:37:13 > 0:37:14that of our son, also.

0:37:14 > 0:37:15Now, you wait a minute.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20You think I'm out there running a bullion brokerage? I am not.

0:37:20 > 0:37:24I'm the hired knife of a police division in Whitechapel.

0:37:24 > 0:37:27I do not drink no more, I do not gamble,

0:37:27 > 0:37:29and I've saved damn near every farthing I could

0:37:29 > 0:37:30for our case to be made.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32Sobriety and thrift!

0:37:32 > 0:37:35You have my sympathies for the many privations you must have suffered

0:37:35 > 0:37:37in your inevitable pursuit of failure.

0:37:37 > 0:37:40I was set on guns and fast horses, remember?

0:37:40 > 0:37:42This was before even your sentence was passed down,

0:37:42 > 0:37:44before even our son was born,

0:37:44 > 0:37:47but it was you that said they'll allow me to raise the boy,

0:37:47 > 0:37:49and you that said that this was not Arizona

0:37:49 > 0:37:52and escape should be won with hard cash and not dynamite.

0:37:52 > 0:37:55What I want is for you to act as a man ought

0:37:55 > 0:37:57- to protect your family! - CLUNK

0:38:05 > 0:38:07Or else I will die, Matthew!

0:38:11 > 0:38:13I love you.

0:38:13 > 0:38:14I can't lose you.

0:38:18 > 0:38:19Then save me.

0:38:24 > 0:38:25There's no time.

0:38:27 > 0:38:28I don't know how.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38Then what use are you to me?

0:38:38 > 0:38:39Guard!

0:38:39 > 0:38:42- My husband is leaving. - Darling, please.

0:38:42 > 0:38:43Out!

0:39:18 > 0:39:20SHE SOBS

0:39:38 > 0:39:41You heard it all, I imagine, Dr Probyn.

0:39:46 > 0:39:50All that has been promised, it may still be yours.

0:39:50 > 0:39:51But when?

0:39:51 > 0:39:54In due course.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57By which you mean after I have facilitated

0:39:57 > 0:40:00you and your son's flight from these walls.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03Ah. It would seem illogical on my part

0:40:03 > 0:40:08not to take the promised payment while you are still...proximate.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12Would you see me beg?

0:40:13 > 0:40:15I would not.

0:40:16 > 0:40:18But men must be bribed.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Our friend Guard Theakson,

0:40:20 > 0:40:23the good men of the London Wall Laundry

0:40:23 > 0:40:25who were to accept the two of you aboard their cart

0:40:25 > 0:40:27the morning after next -

0:40:27 > 0:40:32they will not oblige if I cannot hand to them their incentive.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34No.

0:40:34 > 0:40:38It will bring nothing but... but sadness to us all...

0:40:40 > 0:40:43..but I cannot see how it may now be done.

0:40:47 > 0:40:52Harry, Apples, Freddy, Edward, Edward, Zebra.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Hafeez.

0:41:03 > 0:41:06These are the magazines we took from the dead lawyer's office?

0:41:06 > 0:41:10- Yes, Inspector.- No little amount of bedside reading for you, then.

0:41:10 > 0:41:13I shall get about it presently, however, Inspector.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17You're the educated man, Sergeant. Are you familiar with this title?

0:41:18 > 0:41:21Yeah. Founder one Abdullah Quilliam.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24He was born William Henry Quilliam, son of a watchmaker from Liverpool.

0:41:24 > 0:41:28- Changed his name upon taking up Mohammedanism.- Eh?

0:41:28 > 0:41:31An Englishman, sir, now adhering to an Eastern religion.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33One he promotes and debates beneath that title.

0:41:35 > 0:41:36HE SNIFFS

0:41:37 > 0:41:40Look here. "Sayid Al-Qadir".

0:41:40 > 0:41:43Seems our dead man is not only a subscriber,

0:41:43 > 0:41:45but a contributor also.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Quite so, sir.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50"The Sun of Islam now rises from the west."

0:41:54 > 0:41:57FOOTSTEPS

0:42:00 > 0:42:01How were they, Rose?

0:42:01 > 0:42:03How were who?

0:42:03 > 0:42:06You know, your audience, the house.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09Oh. SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

0:42:09 > 0:42:10Much as ever.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18Thank you.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23That dead lad we pulled from the Western.

0:42:24 > 0:42:26Quite some firebrand, he was.

0:42:27 > 0:42:31We British, he says, are sea wolves living off the pillage of the Earth.

0:42:31 > 0:42:32Hm.

0:42:32 > 0:42:36Such opinion! Enough to turn his father's beard blue.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Why does that worry you, Bennet?

0:42:40 > 0:42:44He's an upright fella. Bengal Lancer.

0:42:44 > 0:42:49Sports his stripes with a pride some might call immodest, but...

0:42:49 > 0:42:50I have some feeling for him.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54He's never seen the country he serves,

0:42:54 > 0:42:57comes here to pay tribute to his Queen,

0:42:57 > 0:43:00finds her capital has taken his boy from him.

0:43:02 > 0:43:05You see his grief... and it moves you.

0:43:08 > 0:43:10A father's grief.

0:43:11 > 0:43:15- Now, Rose...- Am I not to be allowed my regret, Bennet?

0:43:15 > 0:43:16I did not say that.

0:43:16 > 0:43:20But you behave on occasion as if it were myself inflicts it upon you.

0:43:20 > 0:43:21And why should you not?

0:43:22 > 0:43:25I have not given you what you had a right to expect.

0:43:25 > 0:43:28You give me yourself, Rose, you give me your love.

0:43:28 > 0:43:31- That is all I ever... - Don't...say it.

0:43:32 > 0:43:34It is not "all".

0:43:35 > 0:43:37It is not.

0:43:39 > 0:43:42You may deny it, but the whole world knows it, Bennet.

0:43:43 > 0:43:46They look at their chief of police and they say to themselves,

0:43:46 > 0:43:51"Well, if he will take a one-time...bunter as his wife..."

0:43:51 > 0:43:53- Oh, for Christ's... - "..he should have known

0:43:53 > 0:43:57"that nothing can ever grow within that...

0:43:57 > 0:44:00"dry old hat that she now keeps between her legs."

0:44:00 > 0:44:02You will stop this! I will not hear it!

0:44:07 > 0:44:11My love, these are no man or woman's thoughts but your own.

0:44:11 > 0:44:14Then why, Bennet?

0:44:14 > 0:44:16Why can we not give ourselves a child?

0:44:53 > 0:44:56HE RETCHES

0:45:16 > 0:45:20Who believed but you, Edmund, that your Mathilda lived?

0:45:20 > 0:45:22All those that cared for you, myself, Mr Drake,

0:45:22 > 0:45:24all thought it but a forlorn dream,

0:45:24 > 0:45:26wrong-headed and only harmful to yourself.

0:45:26 > 0:45:28And yet you had certainty. You knew.

0:45:30 > 0:45:33Isaac did not do this thing.

0:45:33 > 0:45:35I know it as you knew your daughter lived.

0:45:35 > 0:45:37He did not do this thing.

0:45:37 > 0:45:41And think, Edmund, on what else that might mean.

0:45:41 > 0:45:44The true killer still walking the streets you once knew as home.

0:45:47 > 0:45:51You will have missed the last train by now, I think, Miss Goren.

0:45:51 > 0:45:52We shall make a room up for you.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22The lady left before daylight, I believe.

0:46:22 > 0:46:24She left a note for you, however.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26- Ah.- You read it, I imagine?

0:46:26 > 0:46:27What does it say?

0:46:27 > 0:46:30I do not understand it. There's only one line.

0:46:33 > 0:46:36It is a fragment of verse from the Talmud.

0:46:36 > 0:46:39The Hebrew teachings given by God to Moses?

0:46:39 > 0:46:42- Perhaps.- How does it continue?

0:46:42 > 0:46:46"Save one life, you save the world entire."

0:46:51 > 0:46:52Inspector Drake...

0:46:52 > 0:46:54It is you who's ordered a manhunt?

0:46:54 > 0:46:56- Fellow called Hafeez?- It is.

0:46:56 > 0:46:58He is wanted for questioning in a murder inquiry.

0:46:58 > 0:47:01Never mind that, Inspector. You come with me.

0:47:01 > 0:47:02Yes, sir.

0:47:13 > 0:47:15FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

0:47:15 > 0:47:17This is Inspector Constantine.

0:47:19 > 0:47:21Our beloved Special Branch.

0:47:21 > 0:47:23You know this man?

0:47:23 > 0:47:24Come, Mr Drake.

0:47:24 > 0:47:27It can surely come as no shock to you.

0:47:27 > 0:47:30It is no shock to myself, after all, that you here in this gutter

0:47:30 > 0:47:34once more give shelter to dissidents and vile extremism.

0:47:34 > 0:47:35What is this?

0:47:35 > 0:47:38This man Hafeez. He's on a watchlist.

0:47:40 > 0:47:43I would not give that much credence for this man's word.

0:47:43 > 0:47:46This peculiar elevation of yours, Drake.

0:47:46 > 0:47:47I'm confused.

0:47:47 > 0:47:50It's unlikely to be merited by a sudden emergence of brains

0:47:50 > 0:47:52in that gorilla skull of yours.

0:47:52 > 0:47:54- Who do you think you are?! - Sergeant, leave it.

0:47:54 > 0:47:57Francis Thatcher. Mother dead, father invalided on a coal barge.

0:47:57 > 0:48:00Sister, Lily.

0:48:01 > 0:48:04Two counts of soliciting before her 18th birthday.

0:48:04 > 0:48:07But you are the sole breadwinner in that household now,

0:48:07 > 0:48:08are you not, Sergeant?

0:48:11 > 0:48:13Sergeant Drummond.

0:48:13 > 0:48:16A man full-grown still living with his mother.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19Do your colleagues here smirk at such?

0:48:22 > 0:48:24Assistant Commissioner...

0:48:24 > 0:48:28Should you wish to be appraised of my intelligence, I suggest we leave.

0:48:30 > 0:48:33Inspector Drake will join us, Mr Constantine.

0:48:35 > 0:48:37I insist.

0:48:39 > 0:48:41As you prefer, sir.

0:48:43 > 0:48:46But you need to hear what Hafeez has to say.

0:48:46 > 0:48:48CHATTERING

0:48:59 > 0:49:01The Muslim Patriotic League.

0:49:01 > 0:49:05It's mostly an institution which bears loyalty to its Queen,

0:49:05 > 0:49:07but there are factions, sirs.

0:49:07 > 0:49:09Splinterings that do not envision such loyalty

0:49:09 > 0:49:11as favourable to men of their faith.

0:49:17 > 0:49:19Did I not promise to send word, Major?

0:49:20 > 0:49:22I did not undertake to wait for it, however.

0:49:22 > 0:49:27And the man who speaks to crowds is never such a hard man to find.

0:49:30 > 0:49:31Imran Hafeez will now speak.

0:49:31 > 0:49:33APPLAUSE

0:49:39 > 0:49:40Brothers...

0:49:42 > 0:49:44..we are now everywhere under attack.

0:49:45 > 0:49:49And even as our Empress Queen summons her subjects

0:49:49 > 0:49:52from the furthest reaches of her dominion,

0:49:52 > 0:49:57her home nation's press makes relentless, and vituperative attack

0:49:57 > 0:50:00against the Ottoman Sultan and his caliphate.

0:50:01 > 0:50:06It is therefore incumbent upon us, we Muslim men,

0:50:06 > 0:50:10advanced by the privilege of our British educations,

0:50:10 > 0:50:12to illuminate the path forward

0:50:12 > 0:50:15to those of our brothers who are not so advantaged.

0:50:17 > 0:50:21A path which leads away from this empress Queen,

0:50:21 > 0:50:25whose rule is soon to be so loudly cheered in this city.

0:50:25 > 0:50:27Away from her,

0:50:27 > 0:50:30and toward perhaps a more...

0:50:30 > 0:50:32natural leader and benefactor.

0:50:33 > 0:50:34He...

0:50:34 > 0:50:36Abdul Hameed the second.

0:50:37 > 0:50:39The sublime Khan,

0:50:39 > 0:50:42Caliph to all Islam.

0:50:42 > 0:50:44APPLAUSE

0:50:47 > 0:50:52They find such fault in the country which raises them up?!

0:50:52 > 0:50:58Well, let that country put these moon faces BACK DOWN!

0:50:58 > 0:51:01SHOUTING AND THUMPING

0:51:18 > 0:51:19Excuse me.

0:51:21 > 0:51:22Sorry.

0:51:25 > 0:51:27Brothers!

0:51:32 > 0:51:33Angel Yard.

0:51:47 > 0:51:49Little moon face, gugu liar.

0:51:50 > 0:51:54Trying to tell good Englishman how they must work,

0:51:54 > 0:51:55how they must live?!

0:51:56 > 0:51:58Huh?

0:51:58 > 0:52:01THUNKS AND GROANS

0:52:12 > 0:52:14Imran, evil child that you are,

0:52:14 > 0:52:15you stand behind me.

0:52:15 > 0:52:18What's this? You've got some toy soldier to do your fighting for you?

0:52:18 > 0:52:21My name is Risaldar-Major Haroun Al-Qadir.

0:52:21 > 0:52:24I have travelled to London to pay tribute to my Queen.

0:52:24 > 0:52:26My Queen is your Queen.

0:52:26 > 0:52:29And yet no white working man of the docks is invited to march

0:52:29 > 0:52:30in front of her.

0:52:30 > 0:52:32No, we're cursed and forgot.

0:52:32 > 0:52:34HE GROANS

0:52:38 > 0:52:39Major Al-Qadir.

0:52:40 > 0:52:43I cannot believe you are not at fault for this. Come on!

0:52:47 > 0:52:49Mr Drake, sir.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51I believe you wish to interview this man, Mr Drake.

0:53:37 > 0:53:39WHISTLE TOOTS

0:53:42 > 0:53:44Margate, Chatham...

0:53:44 > 0:53:46then fast to London Victoria, ladies and gentlemen.

0:55:33 > 0:55:37BELLS CHIME IN DISTANCE

0:56:02 > 0:56:04Each night, I wipe it clean.

0:56:05 > 0:56:07It is not permitted, they say.

0:56:08 > 0:56:11But what can they do to me that is not already done?

0:56:12 > 0:56:14I keep the image of it here.

0:56:16 > 0:56:19You once told me the language of the universe is written in numbers.

0:56:20 > 0:56:22Now it seems you seek...

0:56:23 > 0:56:25..numbers within language.

0:56:25 > 0:56:27Hebrew, your language.

0:56:27 > 0:56:28Your writing system.

0:56:28 > 0:56:30Mine is the true belief.

0:56:33 > 0:56:34Our language is the true language,

0:56:34 > 0:56:37because our language is nothing if it is not numbers.

0:56:38 > 0:56:40Show me?

0:56:40 > 0:56:41Certainly.

0:56:43 > 0:56:45This...

0:56:45 > 0:56:47Aleph.

0:56:47 > 0:56:49You may call it the letter A. This...

0:56:49 > 0:56:50Bet.

0:56:50 > 0:56:51B.

0:56:51 > 0:56:54Assign values. Aleph, one. Bet, two.

0:56:54 > 0:56:56The Hebrew word for father. Av.

0:56:57 > 0:56:59Written... aleph, bet.

0:56:59 > 0:57:01One plus two equals three. You follow?

0:57:01 > 0:57:03Now, see.

0:57:03 > 0:57:05This. The Torah.

0:57:06 > 0:57:08Handed to Moses by God,

0:57:08 > 0:57:12and, irreducibly, a sequence of numbers.

0:57:14 > 0:57:16The Garden of Eden. Kedem.

0:57:18 > 0:57:19Numerical sum...

0:57:21 > 0:57:24144.

0:57:26 > 0:57:30Etz Hakhaim. Tree of Life.

0:57:32 > 0:57:33Numerical sum...

0:57:36 > 0:57:40233.

0:57:40 > 0:57:44134, 233, divide the larger sum by the smaller.

0:57:45 > 0:57:47One, and...

0:57:47 > 0:57:49a little over 6/10.

0:57:49 > 0:57:50Correct.

0:57:50 > 0:57:52In other words, it approaches...

0:57:54 > 0:57:55The golden ratio.

0:57:55 > 0:57:57The root structure of life itself.

0:58:01 > 0:58:04Forgive me, Mr Bloom, but your thesis is much changed.

0:58:08 > 0:58:10I...

0:58:10 > 0:58:12am not as I was, it is true.

0:58:14 > 0:58:16Mr...?

0:58:17 > 0:58:19Reid.

0:58:20 > 0:58:23Inspector Reid, as was.

0:58:29 > 0:58:32Mr Bloom, do you know why you are here?

0:58:33 > 0:58:35What it is that you have been sentenced for?

0:58:37 > 0:58:40The guilt men assume is yours?

0:58:42 > 0:58:45Do you know what it is awaits you in this place?

0:58:49 > 0:58:51I...

0:58:51 > 0:58:55I hope you will return and talk with me again.

0:58:56 > 0:59:02It is rare here to find someone with whom I might share my work.

0:59:04 > 0:59:05I shall.

0:59:08 > 0:59:11And perhaps I might share a puzzle of my own.

0:59:36 > 0:59:38Elenora. Thank you. Sorry. The time...

0:59:38 > 0:59:40No, it's quite all right, Edmund.

0:59:40 > 0:59:42Valerie's spending the evening with her grandfather.

0:59:42 > 0:59:45Besides, Mathilda and I have been enjoying ourselves.

0:59:53 > 0:59:54Sit, Father?

1:00:05 > 1:00:07I could no more kill Leon Ratovski...

1:00:09 > 1:00:11..than I could kill myself.

1:00:11 > 1:00:14Not a single night in three years have I climbed into my bed

1:00:14 > 1:00:16and not dreamt of what it would be to smell you there.

1:00:16 > 1:00:20You think that I'm going to let the world steal that from me?

1:00:20 > 1:00:21You think again.
