0:00:11 > 0:00:16WOMAN: The great artisans say the more the teapot is used

0:00:16 > 0:00:19the more beautiful it becomes.

0:00:20 > 0:00:26The pot is seasoned by repeatedly pouring tea over the surface.

0:00:26 > 0:00:34The deposit left on the clay creates this beautiful patina over time.

0:00:34 > 0:00:39Some pots, the clay has been burnished by tea made over 400 years ago.

0:00:50 > 0:00:54PA SYSTEM: This museum will be closing in 10 minutes.

0:00:54 > 0:00:58400 years old, they're letting you use it to make yourself a brew.

0:01:01 > 0:01:02they're made to be touched.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05To be handled.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10SIGHS These pots need attention.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12The clay is cracking.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Well, I can't see how a tiny splash of tea is going to help.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Sometimes you have to look hard at something

0:01:18 > 0:01:20to see its value.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24See?

0:01:24 > 0:01:26This one shines a little brighter.

0:01:28 > 0:01:29I don't suppose...

0:01:29 > 0:01:30Um, I mean...

0:01:30 > 0:01:33I don't suppose that you want to have a drink?

0:01:33 > 0:01:38Not tea, obviously. Um, in a pub, with me, tonight.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Um...?

0:01:41 > 0:01:43You wouldn't like me all that much.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Can I maybe decide that for myself?

0:01:50 > 0:01:52I can't.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55I'm sorry.

0:01:55 > 0:01:56Please stop asking.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55- You took your time. - Yeah, I didn't get the shopping.

0:04:55 > 0:04:56What? Why not?

0:04:56 > 0:05:00Because I had a row in the shop with a chip and PIN machine.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02You... You had a row with a machine?!

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Sort of. It sat there and I shouted abuse. Have you got cash?

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Take my card.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13You could always go yourself, you know, you've been sitting there all morning,

0:05:17 > 0:05:19And what happened about that case you were offered -

0:05:19 > 0:05:22- the Jaria diamond? - Not interested.

0:05:22 > 0:05:23METALLIC CLANK

0:05:23 > 0:05:27- I sent them a message. - THUD!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Don't worry about me, I can manage.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53- Is that my computer? - Of course.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55- What? - Mine was in the bedroom.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58What? And you couldn't be bothered to get up?

0:05:58 > 0:05:59It's password protected.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02In a manner of speaking. Took me less than a minute to guess yours,

0:06:02 > 0:06:04not exactly Fort Knox.

0:06:04 > 0:06:05Right. Thank you.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12SIREN WAILS

0:06:12 > 0:06:13Oh...

0:06:19 > 0:06:22- Need to get a job. - Oh, dull.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Listen, um...

0:06:30 > 0:06:32..if you'd be able to lend me some...

0:06:35 > 0:06:39- Sherlock, are you listening? - I need to go to the bank.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Yes, when you said we were going to the bank...

0:07:13 > 0:07:15DOOR BEEPS

0:07:15 > 0:07:16ELEVATOR PINGS

0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Sherlock Holmes. - PHONE RINGS

0:07:29 > 0:07:30Sherlock Holmes.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32- Sebastian. - Hiya, buddy.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34How long - eight years since I last clapped eyes on you?

0:07:34 > 0:07:39- This is my friend, John Watson. - Friend?- Colleague.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Right.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43PHONE RINGING

0:07:43 > 0:07:44Grab a pew.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Do you need anything, coffee, water?

0:07:46 > 0:07:50No? We're all sorted here, thanks.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54So you're doing well. You've been abroad a lot.

0:07:54 > 0:07:55Well, so?

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Flying all the way around the world twice in a month.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02SCOFFS Right. You're doing that thing.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06We were at uni together, and this guy here had a trick he used to do.

0:08:06 > 0:08:07It's not a trick.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09He could look at you and tell you your whole life story.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13- Yes, I've seen him do it.- Put the wind up everybody, we hated him.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15We'd come down to breakfast in the formal hall

0:08:15 > 0:08:17and this freak would know you'd been shagging the previous night.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19- I simply observed. - Go on, enlighten me.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23Two trips a month, flying all the way around the world, you're quite right.

0:08:23 > 0:08:27How could you tell? Are you going to tell me there's a stain on my tie

0:08:27 > 0:08:29from some special kind of ketchup you can only buy in Manhattan?

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- No, I... - Is it the mud on my shoes?

0:08:33 > 0:08:35I was just chatting with your secretary outside.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37She told me.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41LAUGHS

0:08:43 > 0:08:46I'm glad you could make it over, we've had a break-in.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Sir William's office - the bank's former chairman.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52The room's been left here like a sort of memorial.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Someone broke in late last night.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57- What did they steal? - Nothing.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Just left a little message. PHONE RINGING

0:08:59 > 0:09:01ELECTRONIC BEEP

0:09:16 > 0:09:1760 seconds apart.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19KEYBOARD BEEPS

0:09:24 > 0:09:27So, someone came up here in the middle of the night,

0:09:27 > 0:09:30splashed paint around and left within a minute.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32How many ways into that office?

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Well, that's where this gets really interesting.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38Every door that opens in this bank, it gets locked right here.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Every walk-in cupboard, every toilet.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42That door didn't open last night?

0:09:42 > 0:09:44There's a hole in our security.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Find it and we'll pay you -

0:09:46 > 0:09:47five figures.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49This is an advance.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Tell me how he got in.

0:09:51 > 0:09:52There's a bigger one on its way.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56I don't need an incentive, Sebastian.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01- He's, er... - CLEARS THROAT - ..he's kidding you, obviously.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Shall I look after that for him?

0:10:03 > 0:10:04Thanks.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56Two trips around the world this month.

0:11:56 > 0:12:00You didn't ask his secretary, you said that just to irritate him.

0:12:00 > 0:12:01- How did you know? - Did you see his watch?

0:12:01 > 0:12:03His watch?

0:12:03 > 0:12:05The time was right, but the date was wrong.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Said two days ago. Crossed the date line twice and he didn't alter it.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11- Within a month? How did you get that?- New Breitling.

0:12:11 > 0:12:12Only came out this February.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17OK. So do you think we should sniff around here for a bit longer?

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Got everything I need to know already, thanks.

0:12:19 > 0:12:20That graffiti was a message.

0:12:22 > 0:12:23Someone at the bank, working on the trading floors.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26We find the intended recipient and...

0:12:26 > 0:12:28They'll lead us to the person who sent it?

0:12:28 > 0:12:29Obvious.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Well, there's 300 people up there, who was it meant for?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Pillars.- What?

0:12:34 > 0:12:35Pillars and the screens.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36Very few places you could see that graffiti from.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40That narrows the field considerably. And, of course, the message was left

0:12:40 > 0:12:42at 11.34 last night. That tells us a lot.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44- Does it? - Traders come to work at all hours.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Some trade with Hong Kong in the middle of the night.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50That message was intended for somebody who came in at midnight.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Not many Van Coons in the phone book.

0:12:53 > 0:12:54Taxi!

0:13:09 > 0:13:10BUZZES

0:13:15 > 0:13:18So what do we do now? Sit here and wait for him to come back?

0:13:18 > 0:13:20- Just moved in.- What?

0:13:20 > 0:13:23- Floor above, new label. - Could have just replaced it.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25BUZZES

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- No-one ever does that. - WOMAN: Hello?

0:13:28 > 0:13:33Hi, um, I live in the flat just below you. I don't think we've met.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35No, well, er, I've just moved in.

0:13:37 > 0:13:41Actually, I've just locked my keys in my flat.

0:13:41 > 0:13:42Do you want me to buzz you in?

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Yeah. And can we use your balcony?

0:13:45 > 0:13:46What?!

0:14:22 > 0:14:25DOOR BUZZES

0:14:25 > 0:14:28WATSON: Sherlock?

0:14:28 > 0:14:30WATSON: Sherlock, are you OK?

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Yeah, any time you feel like letting me in(!)

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Do you think he'd lost a lot of money?

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Suicide is pretty common among City boys.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59- We don't know that it was suicide. - Come on.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02The door was locked from the inside, you had to climb down the balcony.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06Been away three days judging by the laundry.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10Look at the case, there was something tightly packed inside it.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13- Thanks. I'll take your word for it. - Problem?

0:15:13 > 0:15:17Yeah, I'm not desperate to root around some bloke's dirty underwear.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Those symbols at the bank, the graffiti, why were they put there?

0:15:20 > 0:15:22- Some sort of code?- Obviously.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25Why were they painted? Want to communicate, why not use e-mail?

0:15:25 > 0:15:26Well, maybe he wasn't answering.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28Oh, good, you follow.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30No.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32What kind of a message would everyone try to avoid?

0:15:34 > 0:15:35What about this morning?

0:15:35 > 0:15:39- Those letters you were looking at? - Bills?

0:15:41 > 0:15:44Yes. He was being threatened.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46MAN'S VOICE IN BACKGROUND

0:15:46 > 0:15:47Not by the Gas Board.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49DIMMOCK: ...see if we can get prints off this glass.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Sergeant, we haven't met.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Yeah, I know who you are

0:15:53 > 0:15:55and I would prefer it if you didn't tamper with any of the evidence.

0:15:59 > 0:16:04- I phoned Lestrade. Is he on his way? - He's busy. I'm in charge.

0:16:04 > 0:16:08And it's not Sergeant, it's Detective Inspector Dimmock.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13We're obviously looking at a suicide.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16It does seem the only explanation of all the facts.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18Wrong, it's one possible explanation of some of the facts.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21You've got a solution that you like, but you are choosing

0:16:21 > 0:16:23to ignore anything you see that doesn't comply with it.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25- Like?- Wound's on the right side of his head.

0:16:25 > 0:16:26- And?- Van Coon was left-handed.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Requires quite a bit of contortion.

0:16:28 > 0:16:32- Left-handed?- I'm amazed you didn't notice. All you have to do is look around this flat.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Coffee table on the left-hand side,

0:16:34 > 0:16:36coffee mug handle pointing to the left.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Power sockets, habitually used the ones on the left. Pen and paper

0:16:38 > 0:16:42on the left of the phone. Picked up with his right, took messages with his left.

0:16:42 > 0:16:43- D'you want me to go on? - No, I think you've covered it.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45I might as well, I'm almost at the bottom of the list.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48There's a knife on the breadboard with butter on the right side of the blade

0:16:48 > 0:16:49because he used it with his left. It's highly unlikely

0:16:49 > 0:16:52that a left-handed man would shoot himself in the right of his head.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Conclusion, someone broke in here and murdered him -

0:16:54 > 0:16:56only explanation of all of the facts.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58- But the gun? - He was waiting for the killer.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01- He'd been threatened.- What?

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Today at the bank, sort of a warning.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06He fired a shot when his attacker came in.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08- And the bullet? - Went through the open window.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Oh, come on(!)

0:17:10 > 0:17:12What are the chances of that?!

0:17:12 > 0:17:14Wait until you get the ballistics report.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17The bullet in his brain wasn't fired from his gun, I guarantee it.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21If his door was locked from the inside, how did the killer get in?

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Good, you're finally asking the right questions.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33He's left trying to sort of cut his hair with a fork,

0:17:33 > 0:17:35which of course can never be done.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38It was a threat, that's what the graffiti meant.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39I'm kind of in a meeting.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Can you make an appointment with my secretary?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45I don't think this can wait. Sorry, Sebastian.

0:17:45 > 0:17:49One of your traders, someone who worked in your office, was killed.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51- What?- Van Coon.

0:17:51 > 0:17:52The police are at his flat.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54- Killed?! - Sorry to interfere

0:17:54 > 0:17:57with everyone's digestion. Still want to make an appointment(?)

0:17:57 > 0:17:59Would maybe nine o'clock at Scotland Yard suit?

0:18:03 > 0:18:07Harrow, Oxford...very bright guy.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11Worked in Asia for a while, so...

0:18:11 > 0:18:13You gave him the Hong Kong accounts?

0:18:15 > 0:18:19Lost 5 million in a single morning, made it all back a week later.

0:18:19 > 0:18:20Nerves of steel, Eddie had.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23- Who'd want to kill him? - We all make enemies.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25You don't all end up with a bullet through your temple.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27MOBILE RINGS Not usually. Excuse me.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32It's my chairman.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Police have been on to him.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36Apparently they're telling him

0:18:36 > 0:18:38- it was a suicide. - Well, they've got it wrong,

0:18:38 > 0:18:39Sebastian. He was murdered.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42Well, I'm afraid they don't see it like that.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44- So?- And neither does my boss.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47I hired you to do a job. Don't get sidetracked.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51FADING FOOTSTEPS

0:18:51 > 0:18:53I thought bankers were all supposed to be heartless bastards.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03HORN BLARES

0:19:41 > 0:19:44I need you to get over to Crispians.

0:19:44 > 0:19:49Two Ming vases up for auction - Chenghua.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53- Will you appraise them?- Soo Lin should go - she's the expert.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55Soo Lin has resigned her job. I need you.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46PHONE RINGING

0:20:49 > 0:20:52- Just locum work. - No, that's fine.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56You're, um... Well, you're a bit over-qualified.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00Er, I could always do with the money.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04Well, we've got two away on holiday this week

0:21:04 > 0:21:06and one's just left to have a baby.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09It might be a bit mundane for you.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13Er, no, mundane is good, sometimes.

0:21:13 > 0:21:14Mundane works.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18- It says here you were a soldier. - And a doctor.

0:21:21 > 0:21:23Anything else you can do?

0:21:23 > 0:21:25I learned the clarinet at school.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29Oh... LAUGHS ..well, I'll look forward to it.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39I said, could you pass me a pen?

0:21:41 > 0:21:43- What? When? - About an hour ago.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47Didn't notice I'd gone out then?

0:21:48 > 0:21:51I went to see about a job at that surgery.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53- How was it? - Great. She's great.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55Who?

0:21:55 > 0:21:57The job.

0:21:57 > 0:21:58She?!

0:21:59 > 0:22:00It.

0:22:02 > 0:22:03Yeah, have a look.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11"The intruder who can walk through walls."

0:22:11 > 0:22:13It happened last night.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Journalist shot dead in his flat.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Doors locked, windows bolted from the inside.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Exactly the same as Van Coon.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23- God! You think...? - He's killed another one.

0:22:31 > 0:22:35Brian Lukis, freelance journalist,

0:22:35 > 0:22:37murdered in his flat.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39Doors locked from the inside.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41You've got to admit, it's similar.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44Both men killed by someone who can walk through solid walls.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48Inspector, do you seriously believe that Eddie Van Coon was

0:22:48 > 0:22:50just another city suicide?

0:22:51 > 0:22:55- SIGHS - You have seen the ballistics report, I suppose?

0:22:55 > 0:22:57And the shot that killed him. Was it fired from his own gun?

0:22:57 > 0:23:00- No.- No. So this investigation might move

0:23:00 > 0:23:02a bit quicker if you were to take my word as gospel.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08I've just handed you a murder inquiry.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10Five minutes in his flat.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40Four floors up.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43That's why they think they're safe.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Put a chain across the door, bolt it shut, think they're impregnable.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52They don't reckon for one second that there's another way in.

0:23:52 > 0:23:57- I don't understand.- Dealing with a killer who can climb.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00- What are you doing? - Clings to the walls like an insect.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02- CLUNK! - That's how he got in.

0:24:02 > 0:24:03What?!

0:24:03 > 0:24:06He climbed up the side of the walls, ran along the roof,

0:24:06 > 0:24:08dropped in through this skylight.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11You're not serious?! Like Spider-Man?

0:24:11 > 0:24:14He scaled six floors of a Docklands apartment building,

0:24:14 > 0:24:17- jumped the balcony and killed Van Coon.- Oh, hold on(!)

0:24:17 > 0:24:22That's how he got into the bank - ran along the window ledge onto the terrace.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24I have to find out what connects these two men.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55Date stamped on the book is the same day that he died.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Sherlock?

0:25:17 > 0:25:20So, the killer goes to the bank,

0:25:20 > 0:25:21leaves a threatening cipher at the bank.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Van Coon panics, returns to his apartment, locks himself in.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Hours later, he dies.

0:25:26 > 0:25:30The killer finds Lukis at the library, he writes the cipher

0:25:30 > 0:25:33on the shelf where he knows it'll be seen. Lukis goes home.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Late that night, he dies too.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Why did they die, Sherlock?

0:25:40 > 0:25:43Only the cipher can tell us.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51The world's run on codes and ciphers, John.

0:25:51 > 0:25:54From the million-pound security system at the bank to the PIN machine

0:25:54 > 0:25:57you took exception to. Cryptography inhabits our every waking moment.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59Yes, OK, but...

0:25:59 > 0:26:00But it's all computer generated -

0:26:00 > 0:26:03electronic codes, electronic ciphering methods.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05This is different.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07It's an ancient device.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Modern code-breaking methods won't unravel it.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11- Where are we headed? - I need to ask some advice.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14What?! Sorry?

0:26:15 > 0:26:17You heard me perfectly. I'm not saying it again.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19- You need advice? - On painting.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20Yes, I need to talk to an expert.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23SIREN WAILS

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Part of a new exhibition.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34- Interesting. - I call it...

0:26:34 > 0:26:37Urban Bloodlust Frenzy. CHUCKLES

0:26:37 > 0:26:39Catchy(!)

0:26:39 > 0:26:42I've got two minutes before a Community Support Officer

0:26:42 > 0:26:43comes around that corner.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Can we do this while I'm working?

0:26:51 > 0:26:55- Know the author? - I recognise the paint.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58It's like Michigan...hard-core propellant.

0:26:58 > 0:26:59I'd say zinc.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02And what about the symbols? Do you recognise them?

0:27:02 > 0:27:04I'm not even sure it's a proper language.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07Two men have been murdered, Raz.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09Deciphering this is the key to finding out who killed them.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12And this is all you've got to go on(?)

0:27:12 > 0:27:15- It's hardly much, is it? - Are you going to help us or not?

0:27:17 > 0:27:18I'll ask around.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Somebody must know something about it.- Oi!

0:27:22 > 0:27:23METALLIC CLATTERING

0:27:23 > 0:27:26What the hell do you think you're doing? This gallery is a listed public building.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29No, no. Wait, wait. It's not me who painted that.

0:27:29 > 0:27:30I was just holding this for...

0:27:36 > 0:27:37Bit of an enthusiast, are we?

0:27:37 > 0:27:40POLICE RADIO IN BACKGROUND

0:27:41 > 0:27:45She was right in the middle of an important piece of restoration.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Why would she suddenly resign?

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Family problems. She said so in her letter.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52But she doesn't have a family. She came to this country on her own.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- Andy!- Look, those teapots, those ceramics.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56They've become her obsession.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58She's been working on restoring them for weeks.

0:27:58 > 0:28:02I can't believe that she would just...abandon them.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05Perhaps she was getting a bit of unwanted attention?

0:28:15 > 0:28:16DOOR SLAMS

0:28:17 > 0:28:18You've been a while.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23Yeah, well, you know how it is.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26Custody sergeants don't really like to be hurried, do they?

0:28:26 > 0:28:28Just formalities. Fingerprints,

0:28:28 > 0:28:31charge sheet, and I've got to be in magistrates' court on Tuesday.

0:28:31 > 0:28:35- What?- Me, Sherlock! In court, on Tuesday!

0:28:35 > 0:28:38- They're giving me an ASBO! - Good, fine.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41You want to tell your little pal he's welcome to go and own up any time.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43This symbol, I still can't place it.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45No, I need you to go to the police station

0:28:45 > 0:28:48and ask about the journalist. The personal effects will have been impounded.

0:28:48 > 0:28:52Get hold of his diary, or something that will tell us his movements.

0:28:52 > 0:28:53Go and see Van Coon's PA.

0:28:53 > 0:28:57If you retrace their steps, somewhere they'll coincide.

0:29:03 > 0:29:04SHUTTER CLICKS

0:29:05 > 0:29:07Scotland Yard.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Flew back from Dalian Friday.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22Looks like he had back-to-back meetings with the sales team.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24Can you print me up a copy?

0:29:24 > 0:29:26- Sure. - What about the day he died?

0:29:26 > 0:29:29- Can you tell me where he was? - Sorry, I've got a gap.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32I have all his receipts.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35- Your friend... - Listen, whatever you say,

0:29:35 > 0:29:36I'm behind you 100 per cent.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38...he's an arrogant sod.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42Well, that was mild. People say a lot worse than that.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47This is what you wanted, isn't it? The journalist's diary?

0:29:52 > 0:29:56What kind of a boss was he, Amanda? Appreciative?

0:29:56 > 0:29:59Um, no. That's not a word I'd use.

0:29:59 > 0:30:03The only things Eddie appreciated had a big price tag.

0:30:03 > 0:30:06Like that hand cream. He bought that for you, didn't he?

0:30:12 > 0:30:14Look at this one.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16Got a taxi from him on the day he died, £18.50.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18That would get him to the office.

0:30:18 > 0:30:21Not rush hour. Check the time. Mid-morning. 18 would get him

0:30:21 > 0:30:24- as far as...- ..The West End. I remember him saying.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27Underground, printed at one in Piccadilly.

0:30:27 > 0:30:30So he got a Tube back to the office.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Why would he get a taxi into town, and then the Tube back?

0:30:32 > 0:30:35Because he was delivering something heavy.

0:30:35 > 0:30:37You wouldn't lug a package up the escalator.

0:30:37 > 0:30:39Delivering?!

0:30:39 > 0:30:41To somewhere near Piccadilly Station.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Dropped the package, delivered it, and then...

0:30:46 > 0:30:48Stopped on his way. He got peckish.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55So you bought your lunch from here en route to the station

0:30:55 > 0:30:56but where were you headed from?

0:30:56 > 0:30:58Where did the taxi drop you?

0:30:58 > 0:31:00- Oof!- Right.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02Eddie Van Coon brought a package here the day he died.

0:31:02 > 0:31:03Whatever was hidden inside that case...

0:31:03 > 0:31:05I've managed to piece together a picture

0:31:05 > 0:31:09using scraps of information - credit card bills, receipts. He flew back from China,

0:31:09 > 0:31:10- then he came here.- Sherlock.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13Somewhere in this street, somewhere near. I don't know where, but...

0:31:13 > 0:31:17- That shop, over there. - How could you tell?

0:31:17 > 0:31:18Lukis' diary. He was here too.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22- He wrote down the address.- Oh.

0:31:40 > 0:31:42SHOP BELL RINGS

0:31:46 > 0:31:47Hello.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56You want...lucky cat?

0:31:56 > 0:31:59No, thanks, no.

0:31:59 > 0:32:01£10! £10!

0:32:03 > 0:32:06I think your wife, she will like.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08Um, thank you.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17Sherlock...

0:32:19 > 0:32:22- The label there. - Yes, I see it.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24It's exactly the same as the cipher.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28WATSON CLEARS THROAT

0:32:29 > 0:32:33It's an ancient number system - Hang Zhou.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36These days only street traders use it.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39Those were numbers written on the wall at the bank and at the library.

0:32:39 > 0:32:42Numbers written in an ancient Chinese dialect.

0:32:42 > 0:32:43It's a 15.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46What we thought was the artist's tag, it's a number 15.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50And the blindfold, the horizontal line. That was a number as well.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52- The Chinese number one, John. - We found it.

0:32:58 > 0:33:01Two men travel back from China,

0:33:01 > 0:33:06both head straight for the Lucky Cat emporium.

0:33:06 > 0:33:08What did they see?

0:33:08 > 0:33:10It's not what they saw.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13It's what they both brought back in those suitcases.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16And you don't mean duty free.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Thank you.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Think about what Sebastian told us.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27About Van Coon, about how he stayed afloat in the market.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30- Lost 5 million. - Made it back in a week.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32That's how he made such easy money.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34- He was a smuggler.- Mm.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36Cover would have been perfect.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40Businessman, making frequent trips to Asia.

0:33:40 > 0:33:44Lukis was the same, a journalist writing about China.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46Both of them smuggled stuff about.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48The Lucky Cat was their drop-off.

0:33:48 > 0:33:51But why did they die?

0:33:51 > 0:33:54It doesn't make sense. If they both turn up at the shop and deliver the goods,

0:33:54 > 0:33:56why would someone threaten them

0:33:56 > 0:33:59and kill them after the event, after they'd finished the job?

0:34:03 > 0:34:05What if one of them was light-fingered?

0:34:05 > 0:34:07- How do you mean?- Stole something.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09Something from the hoard.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11The killer doesn't know which of them took it

0:34:11 > 0:34:12so threatens them both. Right.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Remind me.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20When was the last time that it rained?

0:41:29 > 0:41:32What? Why? Why? What are you doing?

0:41:32 > 0:41:34I need you to maximise your visual memory.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36Try to picture what you saw.

0:41:36 > 0:41:38- Can you picture it?- Yeah.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40- Can you remember it? - Yes, definitely.

0:41:40 > 0:41:41Can you remember the pattern?

0:41:41 > 0:41:43- Yes.- How much can you remember it?

0:41:43 > 0:41:44Look, don't worry.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47Because the average human memory on visual matters is only 62% accurate.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Well, don't worry, I remember all of it.- Really?

0:41:50 > 0:41:54At least I would, if I could get to my pockets. I took a photograph.

0:41:54 > 0:41:56MOBILE BEEPS

0:42:00 > 0:42:04TRAIN RUMBLES

0:42:15 > 0:42:17Always in pairs, John, look.

0:42:19 > 0:42:20Numbers...

0:42:20 > 0:42:22come with partners.

0:42:22 > 0:42:23God, I need to sleep.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26- Why did he paint it so near the tracks?- No idea.

0:42:26 > 0:42:28Thousands of people pass by there every day.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Just 20 minutes...

0:42:32 > 0:42:33Of course.

0:42:33 > 0:42:36Of course, he wants information. He's trying to communicate

0:42:36 > 0:42:40with his people in the underworld. Whatever was stolen, he wants it back.

0:42:40 > 0:42:44It's somewhere here, in a code.

0:42:44 > 0:42:47We can't crack this without Soo Lin Yao.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Oh, good.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52Two men who travelled back from China were murdered.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55And their killer left them messages in Hang Zhou numerals.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57Soo Lin Yao is in danger.

0:42:57 > 0:43:00That cipher, it was just the same pattern as the others.

0:43:00 > 0:43:01He means to kill her as well.

0:43:01 > 0:43:03Look, I've tried everywhere -

0:43:03 > 0:43:06friends, colleagues. I don't know where she's gone.

0:43:06 > 0:43:08I mean, she could be a thousand miles away.

0:43:10 > 0:43:13- What are you looking at? - Tell me more about those teapots.

0:43:13 > 0:43:18The pots were her obsession. They need urgent work.

0:43:18 > 0:43:20If they dry out, then the clay can start to crumble.

0:43:20 > 0:43:23Apparently, you have to just keep making tea in them.

0:43:23 > 0:43:27Yesterday, only one of those pots was shining.

0:43:27 > 0:43:29Now, there are two.

0:43:39 > 0:43:40GRATING

0:44:19 > 0:44:22Fancy a biscuit with that?

0:44:24 > 0:44:27Centuries old. Don't want to break that.

0:44:34 > 0:44:36Hello.

0:44:36 > 0:44:37You saw the cipher.

0:44:37 > 0:44:41Then you know he is coming for me.

0:44:41 > 0:44:45You've been clever to avoid him so far.

0:44:45 > 0:44:47I had to finish.

0:44:47 > 0:44:49To finish this work.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53It's only a matter of time.

0:44:53 > 0:44:55I know he will find me.

0:44:55 > 0:44:58Who is he? Have you met him before?

0:45:00 > 0:45:03When I was a girl, we met in China.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08I recognised his...

0:45:08 > 0:45:10- signature. - The cipher?

0:45:12 > 0:45:16Only he would do this. Zhi Zhu.

0:45:16 > 0:45:20- Zhi Zhu?- The spider.

0:45:25 > 0:45:26You know this mark?

0:45:26 > 0:45:30Yes. It's the mark of a Tong.

0:45:30 > 0:45:34- Huh?- Ancient crime syndicate, based in China.

0:45:37 > 0:45:39Every foot soldier bears the mark.

0:45:41 > 0:45:43Everyone who hauls for them.

0:45:43 > 0:45:44Hauls?

0:45:47 > 0:45:49You mean you were a smuggler?

0:45:53 > 0:45:55I was 15.

0:45:57 > 0:45:59My parents were dead.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02I had no livelihood.

0:46:02 > 0:46:06No way of surviving, day-to-day,

0:46:06 > 0:46:08except to work for the bosses.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10Who are they?

0:46:10 > 0:46:14They are called the Black Lotus.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20By the time I was 16,

0:46:21 > 0:46:25I was taking thousands of pounds worth of drugs

0:46:25 > 0:46:27across the border into Hong Kong.

0:46:31 > 0:46:34I managed to leave that life behind me.

0:46:35 > 0:46:37I came to England.

0:46:39 > 0:46:41They gave me a job, here.

0:46:44 > 0:46:48Everything was good. New life.

0:46:48 > 0:46:51And he came looking for you.

0:46:51 > 0:46:52Yes.

0:46:55 > 0:46:59I hoped, after five years...

0:46:59 > 0:47:01maybe they would have forgotten me.

0:47:02 > 0:47:05But they never really let you leave.

0:47:07 > 0:47:09A small community like ours...

0:47:11 > 0:47:13..they are never very far away.

0:47:19 > 0:47:21He came to my flat.

0:47:21 > 0:47:25He asked me to help him to track down something that was stolen.

0:47:25 > 0:47:27And you've no idea what it was?

0:47:27 > 0:47:30I refused to help.

0:47:30 > 0:47:34So, you knew him well when you were living back in China?

0:47:36 > 0:47:38Oh, yes.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41He's my brother.

0:47:55 > 0:47:58Two orphans.

0:47:59 > 0:48:01We had no choice.

0:48:03 > 0:48:09We could work for the Black Lotus, or starve on the streets, like beggars.

0:48:13 > 0:48:16My brother has become their puppet.

0:48:17 > 0:48:22In the power of the one they call Shan.

0:48:22 > 0:48:23The Black Lotus general.

0:48:27 > 0:48:29I turned my brother away.

0:48:31 > 0:48:34He said I had betrayed him.

0:48:36 > 0:48:39Next day, I came to work

0:48:39 > 0:48:41and the cipher was waiting.

0:48:47 > 0:48:49Can you decipher these?

0:48:51 > 0:48:54- These are numbers.- Yes, I know.

0:48:54 > 0:48:59Here, the line across the man's eyes, it's the Chinese number one.

0:48:59 > 0:49:02And this one is 15. But what's the code?

0:49:03 > 0:49:05All the smugglers know it.

0:49:05 > 0:49:07It's based upon a book...

0:49:07 > 0:49:09DOOR THUDS

0:49:12 > 0:49:13He's here.

0:49:14 > 0:49:18Zhi Zhu has found me.

0:49:18 > 0:49:20No, no, Sherlock.

0:49:20 > 0:49:21Sherlock, wait!

0:49:21 > 0:49:23Come here.

0:49:23 > 0:49:25Get in. Get in!

0:49:34 > 0:49:36GUNSHOT

0:49:36 > 0:49:37SECOND GUNSHOT

0:49:37 > 0:49:39MORE GUNSHOTS

0:49:41 > 0:49:44I have to go and help him. Bolt the door after me.

0:49:53 > 0:49:55GUNSHOT

0:50:12 > 0:50:14GUNSHOTS

0:50:15 > 0:50:17- Careful! - GUNSHOT

0:50:17 > 0:50:22Some of those skulls are over 200,000 years old. Have a bit of respect.

0:50:25 > 0:50:27Thank you.

0:51:24 > 0:51:26Liang.

0:51:27 > 0:51:29SPEAKS CHINESE

0:51:33 > 0:51:36SPEAKS CHINESE

0:51:38 > 0:51:40GUNSHOT

0:51:42 > 0:51:43Oh, my God.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09GULPS

0:52:16 > 0:52:17How many murders is it going to take

0:52:17 > 0:52:20before you start believing that this maniac's out there?

0:52:20 > 0:52:22MUTTERS

0:52:22 > 0:52:24A young girl was gunned down tonight.

0:52:24 > 0:52:28That's three victims in three days. You're supposed to be finding him.

0:52:28 > 0:52:29Brian Lukis and Eddie Van Coon

0:52:29 > 0:52:32were working for a gang of international smugglers.

0:52:32 > 0:52:35A gang called the Black Lotus, operating here in London

0:52:35 > 0:52:37right under your nose.

0:52:37 > 0:52:39Can you prove that?

0:52:47 > 0:52:49- What are you thinking? Pork or pasta?- Oh, it's you.

0:52:50 > 0:52:53I suppose it's never going to trouble Egon Ronay, is it?

0:52:53 > 0:52:55I'd stick with the pasta.

0:52:55 > 0:52:59Don't want to be doing roast pork, not if you're slicing up cadavers.

0:52:59 > 0:53:02What are you having?

0:53:02 > 0:53:04I don't eat when I'm working. Digesting slows me down.

0:53:04 > 0:53:07So you're working here tonight?

0:53:07 > 0:53:09- Need to examine some bodies.- Some?

0:53:09 > 0:53:12Eddie Van Coon and Brian Lukis.

0:53:12 > 0:53:13They're on my list.

0:53:15 > 0:53:17Could you wheel them out again for me?

0:53:17 > 0:53:21Well...their paperwork's already gone through.

0:53:25 > 0:53:28- You changed your hair.- What?

0:53:28 > 0:53:31The style. It's usually parted in the middle.

0:53:31 > 0:53:32Yes, well...

0:53:32 > 0:53:34It's good.

0:53:34 > 0:53:36It...suits you better this way.

0:53:47 > 0:53:49We're just interested in the feet.

0:53:49 > 0:53:50- The feet?- Yes.

0:53:50 > 0:53:52Do you mind if we have a look at them?

0:54:00 > 0:54:02Now, Van Coon.

0:54:07 > 0:54:11- Oh!- So...

0:54:11 > 0:54:14So either these two men just happened to visit the same Chinese tattoo parlour,

0:54:14 > 0:54:18- or I'm telling the truth. - What do you want?

0:54:18 > 0:54:20I want every book from Lukis' apartment and Van Coon's.

0:54:20 > 0:54:22Their books?

0:54:26 > 0:54:29Not just a criminal organisation. It's a cult.

0:54:32 > 0:54:34Her brother was corrupted by one of its leaders.

0:54:34 > 0:54:35Soo Lin said the name.

0:54:35 > 0:54:38Yes, Shan. General Shan.

0:54:38 > 0:54:40We're still no closer to finding him.

0:54:40 > 0:54:42Wrong! We've got almost all we need to know.

0:54:42 > 0:54:45She gave us most of the missing pieces.

0:54:45 > 0:54:48Why did he need to visit his sister?

0:54:48 > 0:54:50- Why did he need her expertise? - She worked at the museum.

0:54:50 > 0:54:53- Exactly.- An expert in antiquities.

0:54:54 > 0:54:56- Of course, I see. - Valuable antiquities, John.

0:54:56 > 0:54:59Ancient Chinese relics purchased on the black market.

0:54:59 > 0:55:02China's home to a thousand treasures hidden after Mao's revolution.

0:55:02 > 0:55:04The Black Lotus is selling them.

0:55:09 > 0:55:11Check for the dates... Here,

0:55:11 > 0:55:14John, "arrived from China four days ago".

0:55:15 > 0:55:16Anonymous.

0:55:16 > 0:55:19The vendor doesn't give his name.

0:55:19 > 0:55:21"Two undiscovered treasures from the East."

0:55:21 > 0:55:26One in Lukis' suitcase and one in Van Coon's.

0:55:26 > 0:55:27"Antiquities...

0:55:27 > 0:55:31"sold at auction."

0:55:31 > 0:55:33Look, here's another one.

0:55:33 > 0:55:35Arrived from China a month ago,

0:55:35 > 0:55:39Chinese ceramic statue sold for £400,000.

0:55:39 > 0:55:42Look, a month before that, Chinese painting, £500,000.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44All of them from an anonymous source.

0:55:44 > 0:55:48They're stealing them back in China and one by one feeding them into Britain.

0:55:52 > 0:55:56Every single auction coincides with Lukis or Van Coon travelling to China.

0:55:56 > 0:55:58So what if one of them got greedy when they were in China?

0:55:58 > 0:55:59What if one of them stole something?

0:55:59 > 0:56:02That's why Zhi Zhu's come. KNOCK AT DOOR

0:56:02 > 0:56:05Sorry, are we collecting for charity, Sherlock?

0:56:05 > 0:56:06What?

0:56:06 > 0:56:09A young man's outside with crates of books.

0:56:15 > 0:56:17So the numbers are references.

0:56:17 > 0:56:18To books.

0:56:18 > 0:56:21To specific pages and specific words on those pages.

0:56:21 > 0:56:24Right, so...

0:56:24 > 0:56:2615 and 1, that means?

0:56:26 > 0:56:28Turn to page 15 and it's the first word you read.

0:56:28 > 0:56:30- OK, so what's the message? - Depends on the book.

0:56:30 > 0:56:33That's the cunning of the book code.

0:56:33 > 0:56:35It has to be one that they both own.

0:56:39 > 0:56:43OK, fine. This shouldn't take too long, should it(?)

0:56:55 > 0:57:00We found these...at the museum. Is this your writing?

0:57:00 > 0:57:03Er, we hoped Soo Lin could decipher it for us.

0:57:03 > 0:57:05Ta.

0:57:05 > 0:57:08Anything else I can do?

0:57:08 > 0:57:10To assist you, I mean.

0:57:10 > 0:57:12Some silence right now would be marvellous.

0:57:27 > 0:57:29Cigarette.

0:57:57 > 0:57:59Imagine.

0:58:03 > 0:58:05CLOCK TICKS

0:58:10 > 0:58:13WATCH BLEEPS

0:58:13 > 0:58:14Oh...

0:58:19 > 0:58:21I'm sorry to keep you waiting,

0:58:21 > 0:58:25but we haven't got anything now until next Thursday.

0:58:25 > 0:58:27WOMAN: This is taking ages.

0:58:27 > 0:58:29Sorry.

0:58:29 > 0:58:32WOMAN: What's the point of booking an appointment if they can't stick to it?

0:58:32 > 0:58:34Um, what's going on?

0:58:34 > 0:58:39That new doctor you hired, he hasn't buzzed the intercom for ages.

0:58:39 > 0:58:42Let me go and have a word.

0:58:42 > 0:58:45- Excuse me.- Sorry.

0:58:45 > 0:58:47- KNOCKS ON DOOR - John?

0:58:50 > 0:58:51John?

0:58:57 > 0:59:00GENTLE SNORING

0:59:02 > 0:59:06Looks like I'm done. I thought I had some more to see.

0:59:06 > 0:59:09- Oh, I did one or two of yours. - One or two?

0:59:09 > 0:59:12Well, maybe five or six.

0:59:12 > 0:59:14I'm sorry, that's not very professional.

0:59:14 > 0:59:17No, not really.

0:59:17 > 0:59:20I had...a bit of a late one.

0:59:21 > 0:59:23Oh, right.

0:59:24 > 0:59:26Anyway, see you.

0:59:26 > 0:59:31So...what were you doing to keep you up so late?

0:59:31 > 0:59:34I was attending a sort of book event.

0:59:34 > 0:59:38Oh. Oh, she likes books, does she, your girlfriend?

0:59:38 > 0:59:40No, it wasn't a date.

0:59:40 > 0:59:44- Good. I mean, I'm... - And I don't have one tonight.

0:59:46 > 0:59:49A book that everybody would own.

0:59:59 > 1:00:0115, entry 1.

1:00:15 > 1:00:18I need to get some air. We're going out tonight.

1:00:18 > 1:00:20- Actually, I've got a date.- What?

1:00:20 > 1:00:22Where two people who like each other go out and have fun?

1:00:22 > 1:00:24That's what I was suggesting.

1:00:24 > 1:00:27No, it wasn't. At least, I hope not.

1:00:27 > 1:00:28Where are you taking her?

1:00:28 > 1:00:30Er, cinema.

1:00:30 > 1:00:32Dull, boring, predictable...

1:00:32 > 1:00:34Why don't you try this?

1:00:34 > 1:00:37In London for one night only.

1:00:37 > 1:00:38LAUGHS NERVOUSLY

1:00:38 > 1:00:41Thanks, but I don't come to you for dating advice.

1:00:41 > 1:00:44SARAH: It's years since anyone took me to the circus.

1:00:44 > 1:00:46Right, yes.

1:00:46 > 1:00:50A friend recommended it to me and I phoned up.

1:00:50 > 1:00:52Oh! What are they, a touring company or something?

1:00:52 > 1:00:54I don't know much about it.

1:00:54 > 1:00:57I think they're probably from China.

1:00:57 > 1:01:00I think so, yes. There's a coincidence(!)

1:01:00 > 1:01:03That's wonderful, thank you very much.

1:01:04 > 1:01:07Hi, I have two tickets reserved for tonight.

1:01:07 > 1:01:09- And what's the name?- Holmes.

1:01:12 > 1:01:15Actually, I have three in that name.

1:01:15 > 1:01:17No, I don't think so, we only booked two.

1:01:17 > 1:01:21Then I phoned back and got one for myself as well.

1:01:21 > 1:01:23I'm Sherlock.

1:01:25 > 1:01:28- Hi.- Hello.

1:01:30 > 1:01:33You couldn't let me have just one night off.

1:01:33 > 1:01:36Yellow Dragon Circus, in London for one day. It fits.

1:01:36 > 1:01:38The Tong sent an assassin to England...

1:01:38 > 1:01:40Dressed as a tightrope walker. Come on, Sherlock, behave!

1:01:40 > 1:01:42We're looking for a killer who can climb, who can shin up a rope.

1:01:42 > 1:01:45Where else would you find that level of dexterity?

1:01:45 > 1:01:47Exit visas are scarce in China.

1:01:47 > 1:01:49They need a good reason to get out of that country.

1:01:49 > 1:01:51All I need to do is have a quick look around...

1:01:51 > 1:01:53Fine. You do that, I'll take Sarah for a pint.

1:01:53 > 1:01:54I need your help.

1:01:54 > 1:01:56I do have a couple of other things on my mind this evening.

1:01:56 > 1:01:58Like what?

1:01:58 > 1:02:01- You are kidding? - What's so important?

1:02:01 > 1:02:03Sherlock, I'm in the middle of a date.

1:02:03 > 1:02:05You're going to chase some killer while I'm trying to...

1:02:05 > 1:02:07What?

1:02:07 > 1:02:09While I'm trying to get off with Sarah.

1:02:09 > 1:02:12Hey... Ready?

1:02:12 > 1:02:13Yeah.

1:02:16 > 1:02:18MURMUR OF CONVERSATION

1:02:22 > 1:02:26You said circus. This is not a circus.

1:02:26 > 1:02:27Look at the size of this crowd.

1:02:27 > 1:02:30Sherlock, this is...art.

1:02:30 > 1:02:32This is not their day job.

1:02:32 > 1:02:37Sorry, I forgot, they're not a circus, they're a gang of international smugglers.

1:02:56 > 1:02:58LOUDER DRUM BEAT

1:04:12 > 1:04:15- Hm? - The crossbow's on a delicate string.

1:04:15 > 1:04:19The warrior has to escape his bonds before it fires.

1:08:38 > 1:08:41- Come on. - Come on. Let's go!

1:08:41 > 1:08:45I sent a couple of cars. The old hall is totally deserted.

1:08:45 > 1:08:48Look, I saw the mark at the circus. The tattoo that we saw

1:08:48 > 1:08:50on the two bodies, the mark of the Tong.

1:08:50 > 1:08:53Lukis and Van Coon were part of a smuggling operation.

1:08:53 > 1:08:56One of them stole something in China. Something valuable.

1:08:56 > 1:08:57The circus performers were gang members

1:08:57 > 1:08:59- sent here to get it back. - Get what back?

1:09:01 > 1:09:02We don't know.

1:09:02 > 1:09:04You don't know?

1:09:05 > 1:09:09Mr Holmes, I've done everything you asked.

1:09:09 > 1:09:13Lestrade, he seems to think your advice is worth something.

1:09:13 > 1:09:14I gave the order for a raid.

1:09:14 > 1:09:16Please tell me I'll have something to show for it.

1:09:16 > 1:09:19Other than a massive bill for overtime.

1:09:24 > 1:09:25They'll be back in China by tomorrow.

1:09:25 > 1:09:28No, they won't leave without what they came for.

1:09:28 > 1:09:30We need to find a hideout.

1:09:30 > 1:09:31A rendezvous.

1:09:33 > 1:09:36Somewhere in this message it must tell us.

1:09:40 > 1:09:42Well, I think perhaps I should leave you to it.

1:09:42 > 1:09:46- No, you don't have to go. Stay. - Yes, it'd be better if you left now.

1:09:46 > 1:09:49He's kidding. Please stay if you'd like.

1:09:49 > 1:09:51Is it just me or is anyone else starving?

1:09:51 > 1:09:53Oh, God.

1:10:06 > 1:10:08So this is what you do.

1:10:08 > 1:10:11You and John, you solve puzzles for a living.

1:10:11 > 1:10:14Consulting detective.

1:10:14 > 1:10:16Oh.

1:10:17 > 1:10:18Oh!

1:10:22 > 1:10:24What are these squiggles?

1:10:24 > 1:10:26They're numbers. An ancient Chinese dialect.

1:10:26 > 1:10:31Oh, right. Well, of course I should have known that.

1:10:36 > 1:10:40(I've done punch and a bowl of nibbles.)

1:10:40 > 1:10:42Mrs Hudson, you are a saint.

1:10:42 > 1:10:44If it was Monday, I'd have been to the supermarket.

1:10:44 > 1:10:46Thank you. Thank you.

1:10:46 > 1:10:48SIRENS PASS BY

1:10:53 > 1:10:56- So these numbers, it's a cipher? - Exactly.

1:10:56 > 1:10:57And each pair of numbers is a word?

1:10:59 > 1:11:00How did you know that?

1:11:00 > 1:11:03Well, two words have already been translated. Here.

1:11:05 > 1:11:07- John.- Mmm?

1:11:07 > 1:11:08John, look at this.

1:11:10 > 1:11:14Soo Lin at the museum, she started to translate the code for us.

1:11:14 > 1:11:16We didn't see it.

1:11:16 > 1:11:18Nine mill.

1:11:20 > 1:11:21Does that mean millions?

1:11:21 > 1:11:24Nine million quid. For what?

1:11:24 > 1:11:27We need to know the end of this sentence.

1:11:27 > 1:11:29Where are you going?

1:11:29 > 1:11:33- To the museum, to the restoration room. We must have been staring right at it.- At what?

1:11:33 > 1:11:35The book, John. The book. The key to cracking the cipher.

1:11:35 > 1:11:39Soo Lin used it to do this. Whilst we were running around the gallery,

1:11:39 > 1:11:42she started to translate the code. It must be on her desk.

1:11:44 > 1:11:45Taxi!

1:12:35 > 1:12:38I mean, a quiet night in is just what the doctor ordered.

1:12:40 > 1:12:45I mean, I love to go out of an evening and wrestle a few Chinese gangsters generally,

1:12:45 > 1:12:47- but a girl can get too much.- OK.

1:12:51 > 1:12:54Er, shall we get a takeaway?

1:14:07 > 1:14:09- Do you have it?- What?

1:14:09 > 1:14:12- Do you have the treasure? - I don't understand.

1:14:45 > 1:14:47HOLMES: John! John, I've got it.

1:14:47 > 1:14:51The cipher, the book. It's the London A-Z that they're us...

1:15:07 > 1:15:12WOMAN: A book is like a magic garden,

1:15:12 > 1:15:14carried in your pocket.

1:15:28 > 1:15:32- Chinese proverb, Mr Holmes. - I'm...

1:15:32 > 1:15:34I'm not Sherlock Holmes.

1:15:34 > 1:15:37Forgive me if I do not take your word for it.

1:15:37 > 1:15:40Ow!

1:15:43 > 1:15:45Debit card, name of...

1:15:45 > 1:15:46S Holmes.

1:15:46 > 1:15:47Take my card.

1:15:47 > 1:15:50Yes, that's not actually mine. He lent that to me.

1:15:50 > 1:15:56And a cheque for £5,000 made out in the name of Mr Sherlock Holmes.

1:15:56 > 1:16:00Yeah, he gave me that to look after.

1:16:00 > 1:16:04Tickets from the theatre collected by you, name of Holmes.

1:16:04 > 1:16:05Yes, OK.

1:16:05 > 1:16:06- What's the name? - Er, Holmes.

1:16:06 > 1:16:08I realise what this looks like.

1:16:08 > 1:16:10But I'm not him.

1:16:10 > 1:16:13- We heard it from your own mouth. - What?

1:16:13 > 1:16:17"I am Sherlock Holmes and I always work alone."

1:16:17 > 1:16:21Because no-one else can compete with my massive intellect.

1:16:21 > 1:16:23Did I really say that?

1:16:26 > 1:16:31I suppose there's no use me trying to persuade you I was doing an impression.

1:16:33 > 1:16:34I am Shan.

1:16:36 > 1:16:39You're... You're Shan?

1:16:39 > 1:16:42Three times we tried to kill you and your companion, Mr Holmes.

1:17:29 > 1:17:33- Not blank bullets now.- OK.

1:17:33 > 1:17:36If we wanted to kill you, Mr Holmes, we would have done it by now.

1:17:36 > 1:17:39We just wanted to make you inquisitive.

1:17:41 > 1:17:44- Do you have it? - Do I have what?

1:17:44 > 1:17:47- The treasure.- I don't know what you're talking about.

1:17:47 > 1:17:51I would prefer to make certain.

1:17:55 > 1:17:58Everything in the West has its price.

1:17:58 > 1:18:03And the price for her life - information.

1:18:09 > 1:18:12(I'm sorry. I'm sorry.)

1:18:27 > 1:18:30- Where's the hairpin?- What?

1:18:30 > 1:18:34The Empress pin valued at £9 million sterling?

1:18:34 > 1:18:36We already had a buyer in the West

1:18:36 > 1:18:38and then one of our people was greedy, he took it,

1:18:38 > 1:18:41brought it back to London, and you, Mr Holmes, have been searching.

1:18:41 > 1:18:45Please, please. Listen to me. I'm not...

1:18:45 > 1:18:48I'm not Sherlock Holmes. You have to believe me.

1:18:48 > 1:18:50I haven't found whatever it is you're looking for.

1:18:50 > 1:18:54- I need a volunteer from the audience.- No, please, please!

1:18:54 > 1:18:56Ah, thank you, lady.

1:18:56 > 1:19:01Yes, you'll do very nicely.

1:19:01 > 1:19:03MUFFLED GROANS

1:19:22 > 1:19:29Ladies and gentlemen, from the distant, moonlit shores of NW1,

1:19:29 > 1:19:33we present for your pleasure,

1:19:33 > 1:19:39- Sherlock Holmes' pretty companion in a death-defying act.- Please!

1:19:42 > 1:19:47You've seen the act before. How dull for you.

1:19:47 > 1:19:48You know how it ends.

1:19:48 > 1:19:50I'm not Sherlock Holmes!

1:19:50 > 1:19:52I don't believe you.

1:19:52 > 1:19:54You should, you know.

1:19:54 > 1:19:57Sherlock Holmes is nothing at all like him.

1:19:57 > 1:20:00How would you describe me, John?

1:20:00 > 1:20:04- Resourceful? Dynamic? Enigmatic? - Late?

1:20:04 > 1:20:06That's a semi-automatic. If you fire it,

1:20:06 > 1:20:08the bullet will travel at over 1,000 metres per second.

1:20:08 > 1:20:10Well?

1:20:10 > 1:20:12- Well... - THUMP

1:20:12 > 1:20:14..the radius curvature of these walls is nearly four metres.

1:20:14 > 1:20:16If you miss, the bullet will ricochet.

1:20:16 > 1:20:18Could hit anyone.

1:20:18 > 1:20:20Might even bounce off the tunnel and hit you.

1:21:18 > 1:21:20WHOOSH THUMP

1:21:21 > 1:21:24GROANS

1:21:33 > 1:21:35FOOTSTEPS RECEDE

1:21:41 > 1:21:42It's all right.

1:21:42 > 1:21:44GRUNTS

1:21:44 > 1:21:47You're going to be all right. It's over now.

1:21:53 > 1:21:55Don't worry.

1:21:55 > 1:21:57Next date won't be like this.

1:22:11 > 1:22:14We'll just slip off. No need to mention us in your report.

1:22:14 > 1:22:17- Mr Holmes...- I have high hopes for you, Inspector.

1:22:17 > 1:22:19A glittering career.

1:22:19 > 1:22:21I go where you point me.

1:22:23 > 1:22:25Exactly.

1:22:29 > 1:22:31POURING LIQUID

1:22:31 > 1:22:34WATSON: Ta.

1:22:34 > 1:22:36- So, nine million.- Million.

1:22:36 > 1:22:41Million, yes. Nine million for Jade pin dragon den black tramway.

1:22:41 > 1:22:43An instruction to all their London operatives.

1:22:43 > 1:22:46A message. What they were trying to reclaim.

1:22:46 > 1:22:48- What, a jade pin? - Worth £9 million.

1:22:48 > 1:22:50Bring it to the Tramway, their London hideout.

1:22:50 > 1:22:53Hang on. A hairpin worth £9 million?

1:22:53 > 1:22:55- Apparently.- Why so much?

1:22:55 > 1:22:57Depends who owned it.

1:23:03 > 1:23:05Two operatives based in London.

1:23:05 > 1:23:08They travel over to Dalian to smuggle those vases.

1:23:08 > 1:23:11One of them helps himself to something, a little hairpin.

1:23:11 > 1:23:14- Worth £9 million. - Eddie Van Coon was the thief,

1:23:14 > 1:23:16he stole the treasure when he was in China.

1:23:16 > 1:23:18How do you know it was Van Coon, not Lukis?

1:23:18 > 1:23:21- Even the killer didn't know that. - Because of the soap.

1:23:29 > 1:23:31PHONE RINGS

1:23:33 > 1:23:35- Amanda? - HOLMES: He brought you a present.

1:23:35 > 1:23:37Oh, hello.

1:23:37 > 1:23:39A little gift when he came back from China.

1:23:39 > 1:23:44- How do you know that? - You weren't just his PA, were you?

1:23:44 > 1:23:45Someone's been gossiping.

1:23:45 > 1:23:47- No.- Then I don't understand why...

1:23:47 > 1:23:49Scented hand soap in his apartment.

1:23:49 > 1:23:53300ml of it. Bottle almost finished.

1:23:53 > 1:23:58- Sorry...?- I don't think Eddie Van Coon was the type of chap to buy himself hand soap,

1:23:58 > 1:24:00not unless he had a lady coming over.

1:24:00 > 1:24:02And it's the same brand as that hand cream there on your desk.

1:24:04 > 1:24:08Look, it wasn't serious between us.

1:24:08 > 1:24:13It was over in a flash, it couldn't last. He was my boss.

1:24:13 > 1:24:15What happened? Why did you end it?

1:24:17 > 1:24:20I thought he didn't appreciate me.

1:24:20 > 1:24:22Took me for granted.

1:24:24 > 1:24:25Stood me up once too often.

1:24:25 > 1:24:29We'd plan to go away for the weekend, and then he'd just leave.

1:24:29 > 1:24:32Fly off to China at a moment's notice.

1:24:32 > 1:24:34And he brought you a present from abroad to say sorry.

1:24:36 > 1:24:39Can I just have a look at it?

1:24:45 > 1:24:48He really climbed up onto the balcony?

1:24:48 > 1:24:51Nail a plank across the window and all your problems are over.

1:24:53 > 1:24:55Thanks.

1:24:55 > 1:24:58He said he bought it in a street market.

1:24:58 > 1:25:01Oh, I don't think that's true. I think he pinched it.

1:25:01 > 1:25:03Yeah, that's Eddie.

1:25:03 > 1:25:05Didn't know its value, just thought it would suit you.

1:25:05 > 1:25:08Oh? What's it worth?

1:25:10 > 1:25:12£9 million.

1:25:15 > 1:25:16Oh, my God.

1:25:16 > 1:25:18Oh, my God!

1:25:21 > 1:25:22Nine million?!

1:25:35 > 1:25:37Over 1,000 years old

1:25:37 > 1:25:39and it's sitting on her bedside table every night.

1:25:39 > 1:25:42He didn't know its value. Didn't know why they were chasing him.

1:25:44 > 1:25:46Should've just got her a lucky cat.

1:25:50 > 1:25:53- You mind, don't you?- What?

1:25:53 > 1:25:56That she escaped. General Shan.

1:25:56 > 1:25:58It's not enough that we got her two henchmen.

1:25:58 > 1:25:59Must be a vast network, John.

1:25:59 > 1:26:01Thousands of operatives.

1:26:01 > 1:26:04You and I, we barely scratched the surface.

1:26:04 > 1:26:06You cracked the code though, Sherlock.

1:26:06 > 1:26:09And maybe Dimmock can track down all of them now he knows it.

1:26:09 > 1:26:13No. No, I crack this code,

1:26:13 > 1:26:17all the smugglers have to do is pick up another book.
