0:00:11 > 0:00:13It is too dangerous for him.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Why was I invited here this evening?
0:00:18 > 0:00:21We need nothing of you, except loyalty to your country.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23Have you heard the rumours that the King is unwell?
0:00:23 > 0:00:26You can't be thinking of trying to free him?
0:00:26 > 0:00:29I'm telling you, don't go back there and say, "No deal."
0:00:29 > 0:00:30What if I did?
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Then they'd kill you.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33Gallant British patriots.

0:04:06 > 0:04:07Thank you, sir.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Are you an angler, Superintendent?
0:04:13 > 0:04:15No, sir.
0:04:15 > 0:04:16Pity.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21I caught that fellow, Superintendent.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Really, sir?
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Standartenfuehrer Huth, on the other hand, is a ski champion.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34He went to Garmisch for the 1936 Olympics.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42He won no medals.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46But it is a distinction to compete, hmm?
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Of course, sir.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51The sport a man chooses tells you a lot about his personality.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Standartenfuehrer Huth is always in a hurry.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56HE TUTS
0:04:56 > 0:04:57I am never in a hurry.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Do you understand, Superintendent?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09It takes patience...
0:05:10 > 0:05:12..to make a lure that works...
0:05:13 > 0:05:17..that the fish will swallow without even knowing it.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Are you sure you won't have cream?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30The Reichsfuehrer-SS, Heinrich Himmler,
0:05:30 > 0:05:33was asking me about developments on this murder you're working on,
0:05:33 > 0:05:35the one in Shepherd Market.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47A photograph of a Professor Frick and his colleagues
0:05:47 > 0:05:49was found in the suspect's house.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Well...
0:05:53 > 0:05:57what do you think this all means? Who is this Professor Frick?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59An atomic expert.
0:05:59 > 0:06:00Like Dr Spode was.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05So this explains Standartenfuehrer Huth's arrival, do you think -
0:06:05 > 0:06:07the atomic business?
0:06:08 > 0:06:09I suspect so, yes.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16I'd like to be kept up-to-date on all this, Superintendent.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19You are doing a fine job assisting Herr Dr Huth,
0:06:19 > 0:06:24but please don't exclude the leader of your police force, hmm?
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Good fellow.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- Here he is.- Yeah.
0:07:04 > 0:07:05Go on, then - say it.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08I went over.
0:07:08 > 0:07:09Told his mother.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13Jimmy was her last boy left.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- Whoever did this... - No, it's you, Doug.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22You did this.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23Right.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Cos I should have stuck with you.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30They'd have left you alone.
0:07:32 > 0:07:33Cos you're one of them.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Get me the fingerprinting kit.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Even I know it takes all sorts to make up the Resistance, Harry.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49There are those that put sugar in German petrol tanks,
0:07:49 > 0:07:53and those that scrawl anti-Nazi slogans on walls. Fine.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56But then there are those that are willing to kill boys like Jimmy,
0:07:56 > 0:08:00just to get a point across to their own bloody people.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04Can you not understand people's anger? Hmm? They feel helpless.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07They see us working with the Germans and they lash out,
0:08:07 > 0:08:08and can you really blame them?
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Yes, I bloody can!
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Then you're a fool.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16And you're out of touch, and that will ruin you as a copper.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20For Christ's sakes, Harry.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24What they did is no better than the bloody Nazis.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33So what do you believe in, Dougie? Huh?
0:08:33 > 0:08:34Justice.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Was this justice for Jimmy?
0:08:38 > 0:08:40I don't know these people.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Well, they're bloody animals.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Who DO you know?
0:08:57 > 0:08:59It's too dangerous for you, too, isn't it?
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Maybe it's time to quit.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04I'd understand.
0:09:04 > 0:09:05Not on your life.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09There are no prints on this.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12They've wiped it clean.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15So much for the heat of anger.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Like I said...
0:09:17 > 0:09:19..I do not know these people.
0:09:21 > 0:09:22Well, that's a shame.
0:09:25 > 0:09:26Cos I'd like to think...
0:09:28 > 0:09:30..you'd have helped me try and get them.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36There's nothing I can do.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43These people will turn on anyone they start to doubt.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Yeah, well, don't you worry about me.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47- Like I said... - I'm not worried about you.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53You know where she is.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Tell Sylvia she should get out.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06Join that cousin of yours in the unoccupied zone.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07She won't listen to me.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Let me try and persuade her.
0:10:18 > 0:10:19Where is she?
0:10:21 > 0:10:22You won't like it.

0:11:03 > 0:11:04What do you want?
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Help.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11Not going to kick me out, then?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14I don't see any harm in you being here.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16It's not a crime scene any more.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20I was the one who helped you get away, remember?
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Who killed Jimmy Dunn?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27- I don't know anything. - You know too much.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30And if the Germans catch you, they'll make sure they know it, too.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Hmm.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35And take great pleasure in it, I'm sure.
0:11:46 > 0:11:47Don't stay here, Sylvia.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Leave the controlled zone - go to the Lakes.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52You sound like Harry.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54He's worried about you.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58And these people you think are your friends...
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Shut up about it, OK?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05If you were going to visit...
0:12:06 > 0:12:07..you could have brought some food.
0:12:13 > 0:12:14Goodbye, Sylvia.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57Do you want me to alert the sentries?
0:22:57 > 0:22:58No, that's the last thing I want.

0:23:03 > 0:23:04Is that a joke?
0:23:04 > 0:23:06No. When I make jokes, I waggle my ears.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09There should be an elbow-pivot here for John Spode.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20I'm hoping to make an arrest, Captain.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I hope not here.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25This is an army establishment -

0:23:41 > 0:23:42Fine.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47Then I'll wait outside the gate and arrest him off army property.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52You would be in grave danger of being shot down by my sentries.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59Why?

0:26:40 > 0:26:42We don't have much time. I can help you, Spode.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44I know you burned the plans. Did you make copies? Photographs?
0:26:44 > 0:26:47You know who I am. I can help you.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32The pivot for your false arm.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38I found it at the flat at Shepherd's Market.
0:27:38 > 0:27:41You must have been in quite a hurry, to leave that behind.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45You're the great detective.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Do you deny killing your brother?
0:27:50 > 0:27:51How could I?
0:27:55 > 0:27:57I wouldn't have hurt your son.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01I just needed a way to get you to listen,
0:28:01 > 0:28:03so you'd help us.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08And all everyone told me was that you were incorruptible.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10For the purposes of this interview,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13we're only concerned with the killing of your brother.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Has anyone got a cigarette?
0:28:21 > 0:28:22I have some.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27What do you prefer, Superintendent?
0:28:27 > 0:28:30I have French, Turkish, American...
0:28:32 > 0:28:35It's been a long time since I tasted a French cigarette.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44I'll need you to make your confession in writing.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Why did you do it?

0:29:27 > 0:29:29This is the best cigarette I've tasted in an age.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Won't find anything like this in prison, I expect.
0:29:41 > 0:29:46It's not my job to chase Resistance fighters.
0:29:49 > 0:29:53You lost your arm taking on a Panzer -
0:29:53 > 0:29:55a friend of mine told me.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57Were you in the fighting too?
0:29:59 > 0:30:00No.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03You didn't miss anything.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06It was all over before it began.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Only a bloody fool tries to jam the sprocket wheel of a Mark IV
0:30:09 > 0:30:10with a tyre lever.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13He went past me without even noticing...
0:30:13 > 0:30:15and took my arm with him.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23You being there wouldn't have made much difference, Superintendent,
0:30:23 > 0:30:25believe me.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32Is it a confession you wanted, or absolution?
0:30:35 > 0:30:36Understanding.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43Your brother had his corneas burned by radiation.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Was he dying?
0:30:51 > 0:30:54So, you put him out of his misery.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57But why did you leave the pivot from your elbow behind?

0:32:06 > 0:32:10Like he said, you have got your confession.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13You can close the file now, can't you?
0:32:17 > 0:32:21You just stood there and watched him, you stupid pig.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25And this half-witted army officer, Hesse, watched too?
0:32:25 > 0:32:26Yes.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Any chance that he passed him the capsule?
0:32:30 > 0:32:31No, sir.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35So from the moment you arrested Spode,
0:32:35 > 0:32:37was there even the briefest opportunity for this damned
0:32:37 > 0:32:40army officer, Hesse, to pass him anything at all?
0:32:42 > 0:32:43No chance at all, sir.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46If we get this one wrong, Superintendent Archer,
0:32:46 > 0:32:49you'll find yourself in Dachau.
0:32:49 > 0:32:50Do you know what Dachau is?

0:36:49 > 0:36:52Captain Hesse here doesn't check his rear-view mirror quite as often

0:38:12 > 0:38:14About His Majesty.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16The fact is that some of them feel it's incompatible with
0:38:16 > 0:38:19the honour of the German Army that the King of England should be
0:38:19 > 0:38:22in custody, guarded by SS units.
0:38:22 > 0:38:25I know, old-fashioned buggers, aren't they?
0:38:25 > 0:38:26More's our luck.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31Remember our conversation about Rear Admiral Connolly,
0:38:31 > 0:38:33over there in Washington?
0:38:33 > 0:38:37If the King were free, and able to confirm publicly Connolly's rank
0:38:37 > 0:38:41and position, it would transform Britain's position in the world.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44You're not seriously suggesting that the German Army are
0:38:44 > 0:38:46going to try and help free the King?
0:38:46 > 0:38:48A certain few will do everything they can to help,
0:38:48 > 0:38:50save getting into a fight.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52What do they get out of it?
0:38:52 > 0:38:55The escape of the King from SS custody would disgrace the SS
0:38:55 > 0:38:57and consolidate the Army's Commander-in-Chief
0:38:57 > 0:39:00in his position of power here,
0:39:00 > 0:39:02and not just here -
0:39:02 > 0:39:04the repercussions would be felt all the way to Berlin.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18The General will see you both now.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50So, the younger Spode is dead too?
0:39:50 > 0:39:52As I understand it, yes.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54And your police officer followed Captain Hesse here?
0:39:54 > 0:39:56That's right.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58I will come to you later.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Now, you listen to me, Major.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10you're going to have to woo me,
0:40:10 > 0:40:12and I'm very difficult to please.

0:40:49 > 0:40:51then you'll do it.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57You're playing a dangerous game, Superintendent.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Not nearly as dangerous as the one you're playing.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04If I submit a full report about young Spode's murder this afternoon,
0:41:04 > 0:41:07the German C-in-C of Great Britain will likely
0:41:07 > 0:41:10find it very healthy to distance himself from you,

0:41:37 > 0:41:42Congratulations on apprehending Dr Spode's killer, Superintendent.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48Well, he was denied a trial,
0:41:48 > 0:41:50so we'll never really know, will we?
0:41:51 > 0:41:54Did he make a copy of the calculations his brother
0:41:54 > 0:41:56stole from Bringle Sands?
0:41:56 > 0:41:58I asked him.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00He denied it.
0:42:00 > 0:42:01Did you believe him?
0:42:08 > 0:42:11In that case, I will hold you personally responsible if
0:42:11 > 0:42:13a copy falls into the wrong hands.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19I had a feeling you'd say something like that.
0:42:19 > 0:42:24Captain Hesse must not be included in any reports to your authorities,
0:42:24 > 0:42:27or the King has no chance of freedom.
0:42:39 > 0:42:40Well, Archer?
0:42:45 > 0:42:46Very well.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Good.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51I'll need to know how you would dispose of His Majesty.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54Our honour requires that his safety be assured.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57We'll fly him out of a disused airfield.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Your staff are advising us on which one to choose, sir.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Will you go too?
0:43:01 > 0:43:02I've no orders as yet, sir.

0:43:30 > 0:43:34An aeroplane flying out of a disused airfield?
0:43:34 > 0:43:36Now, was that just for the Huns, or is that really the best way
0:43:36 > 0:43:38we've got of getting the King out of the country?
0:43:38 > 0:43:40Have you got a better idea?
0:43:42 > 0:43:44Ship him out as diplomatic mail.

0:43:56 > 0:43:57Worse.
0:43:57 > 0:44:00The escape of the King will be in every history book ever written.
0:44:00 > 0:44:02Do you want it recorded that the only way we could get him out
0:44:02 > 0:44:06of the country was by forging the signature of a foreigner?
0:44:06 > 0:44:08The same reason we can't have him do anything ridiculous,
0:44:08 > 0:44:10like dress up as a chambermaid,

0:46:49 > 0:46:55when you were writing an article on Professor Frick and his work,

0:48:02 > 0:48:04How can I forget?
0:48:09 > 0:48:10You seem different.
0:48:10 > 0:48:12Maybe I am.
0:48:12 > 0:48:15I like you more.
0:48:15 > 0:48:16Is the interrogation over?
0:48:24 > 0:48:26Just one last thing.
0:48:30 > 0:48:33You know, someone on that inaugural flight from New York
0:48:33 > 0:48:35did a bit of smuggling.
0:48:35 > 0:48:36Oh, really?
0:48:40 > 0:48:47Now, a hatbox like this would be perfect for hiding away a newsreel.
0:48:51 > 0:48:54You seem to be more interested in false bottoms than real ones.
0:48:56 > 0:48:58Well...
0:48:58 > 0:49:00we can't have that, can we?
0:49:00 > 0:49:02SHE GIGGLES
0:49:08 > 0:49:13This ceremony tomorrow is going to be bloody tedious.
0:49:13 > 0:49:17Apparently, the Russians are even more long-winded than the Jerries.
0:49:18 > 0:49:21I assume you're a guest of honour, darling.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23SHE LAUGHS
0:49:23 > 0:49:26Disinterring Karl Marx and mailing him back to Moscow
0:49:26 > 0:49:28is quite the story,
0:49:28 > 0:49:31but I'm sick of peddling their propaganda.
0:49:38 > 0:49:41Let's find excuses.
0:49:41 > 0:49:43We could have a morning together.
0:49:53 > 0:49:55I can't.
0:50:14 > 0:50:17So you were all ready to pass on the atomic plans to somebody
0:50:17 > 0:50:19at the American Embassy?
0:50:22 > 0:50:23Does it matter?
0:50:25 > 0:50:27Yes, it does.
0:50:29 > 0:50:33The guy I knew and trusted at the embassy just moved back home,
0:50:33 > 0:50:36so I was going to have to play it by ear.
0:50:36 > 0:50:39Ha! You have an answer for everything, don't you?
0:50:41 > 0:50:45It only seems that way because you never stop asking me questions.
0:50:52 > 0:50:54I'm not a spy, Douglas.
0:50:56 > 0:50:59I hear people lie to me all the time.
0:51:01 > 0:51:05So you can tell when I'm telling the truth?
0:51:05 > 0:51:06You are cleverer than most.
0:51:06 > 0:51:07Mm-hmm.
0:51:12 > 0:51:15And that's why you like me.
0:51:15 > 0:51:16Well, that's one of the reasons.
0:51:23 > 0:51:28Have you heard anything about a plot to free the King
0:51:28 > 0:51:29and take him to America?
0:51:32 > 0:51:35Maybe I have,
0:51:35 > 0:51:38but I don't give it much credence.
0:51:38 > 0:51:40Or, at least, the American part.
0:51:42 > 0:51:43Why not?
0:51:45 > 0:51:48Because your King would be a liability to America.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54Do you think Roosevelt wants to go into the schoolbooks as the man
0:51:54 > 0:51:58who invited the King of England back to the US of A?
0:51:58 > 0:52:03Don't go thinking Roosevelt is some kind of fanatical Anglophile.
0:52:03 > 0:52:07He's a politician, and back home, that means a wily bird.
0:52:10 > 0:52:12Well, of course, it's politically sensitive.
0:52:12 > 0:52:14Politically, it's suicide.
0:52:14 > 0:52:17Every politician is promising he won't get American boys
0:52:17 > 0:52:19into a foreign war.
0:52:19 > 0:52:22Do you think anyone's going to invite your King there,
0:52:22 > 0:52:25when he's the focal point of the whole European wrangle?
0:52:27 > 0:52:28Wrangle?
0:52:31 > 0:52:32Over here, we call it war.
0:52:32 > 0:52:34You can call it anything you like,
0:52:34 > 0:52:37but for most people back home, it's in the past tense.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40And the Germans - they changed the tense.
0:52:57 > 0:52:59Sorry, Doug.
0:52:59 > 0:53:02I needed to know where you stood.
0:53:02 > 0:53:05Did it work?
0:53:22 > 0:53:24I wasn't just joking around.
0:53:26 > 0:53:29It's not going to be easy to draw America into the war.
0:53:32 > 0:53:33No.
0:53:35 > 0:53:37But with those calculations...
0:53:40 > 0:53:42..they might have woken them up.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47I guess we'll never know.
0:53:51 > 0:53:53ENGINE RUMBLES
0:53:53 > 0:53:55BELL CHIMES
0:53:57 > 0:53:59Hello, Arthur.
0:53:59 > 0:54:00Hello, Superintendent.
0:54:06 > 0:54:08Any special instructions?
0:54:08 > 0:54:11Over or under development?
0:54:11 > 0:54:14The only special instruction is keep your mouth shut about it.
0:54:16 > 0:54:17Righto.
0:54:17 > 0:54:18Good man. Thanks.
0:54:24 > 0:54:26BRASS BAND PLAYS
0:54:29 > 0:54:32- Archer!- General Kellermann.
0:54:34 > 0:54:40Ah, Molotov, Von Ribbentrop and Goebbels. What a trio!
0:54:40 > 0:54:42Putting all your eggs in the basket, yes?
0:54:44 > 0:54:46But after the Mall incident,
0:54:46 > 0:54:50I am sure the army will be keeping a tighter watch.
0:54:50 > 0:54:54MEN CHANT: "SIEG HEIL!"
0:54:54 > 0:54:56Hauptsturmfuhrer Schroder.
0:54:58 > 0:55:00IN GERMAN:
0:55:12 > 0:55:15BRASS BAND CONTINUES PLAYING
0:56:30 > 0:56:32- MEN:- Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!
0:56:32 > 0:56:35EXPLOSION
0:56:35 > 0:56:37SCREAMING
0:56:37 > 0:56:39YELLING IN GERMAN
0:56:39 > 0:56:42SCREAMING
0:56:45 > 0:56:47You're going to go to the unoccupied zone.
0:56:47 > 0:56:48You'll be safer there.
0:56:48 > 0:56:51GUNSHOTS
0:56:51 > 0:56:53- It's starting.- What is?
0:56:55 > 0:56:57GUNSHOTS
0:56:57 > 0:56:58The crackdown.
0:56:58 > 0:57:02Do you want to stay with me, Archer, on my personal staff?
0:57:02 > 0:57:05You can come all the way to the top.
0:57:05 > 0:57:07KNOCK AT DOOR
0:57:07 > 0:57:10Harry Woods didn't turn up for a meeting with the Crime Super.
0:57:10 > 0:57:12You don't think he could've been picked up?
0:57:12 > 0:57:13They're arresting thousands
0:57:13 > 0:57:16and drafting in interrogators from everywhere.
0:57:16 > 0:57:18The Germans seem damn close to producing an atomic bomb.
0:57:18 > 0:57:21We have no option but to go in and raid Bringle Sands.
0:57:21 > 0:57:23Still, we can sabotage the rest.
0:57:23 > 0:57:25You want me to get the King to Bringle Sands?
