0:00:15 > 0:00:16You are now one of us.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18You'll risk the life of your son?

0:00:18 > 0:00:19Zilpha?

0:00:21 > 0:00:22What have you done?

0:00:22 > 0:00:23I killed him.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31James, this powder is not ready to be moved

0:00:31 > 0:00:32because it is unstable.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35We are leaving because we have been betrayed.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Sir Stuart just wants you to know - it's war.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42The gloves are off.

0:00:44 > 0:00:45James, what are you doing?

0:00:45 > 0:00:48Go away. I'm not fit to be near you now.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Dear Lord, we are gathered in your presence here today

0:02:06 > 0:02:10on this most sorrowful occasion to say farewell to Winter.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20Cured of her love of the world,

0:02:20 > 0:02:24untouched, pure,

0:02:24 > 0:02:25commended to God...

0:02:26 > 0:02:30..she will not be covered in earth as corrupted flesh,

0:02:30 > 0:02:34but instead will be sent to you, O Lord...

0:02:35 > 0:02:37..aboard a sunrise...

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Helga, I can't read the next word.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44..sent to you aboard a sunrise along the road of the river

0:02:44 > 0:02:46that she loved, as if it were her father.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51..along the road of the river she loved, as if it were her father.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08What's this?

0:03:08 > 0:03:10A package for Mr Delaney.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13I believe this one is a ward of your master,

0:03:13 > 0:03:19who asked me specifically to deliver him in person to this house today.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21He's not in.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23What a surprise.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24Mr Cholmondeley?

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Miss Bow.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28What's going on?

0:03:28 > 0:03:30A bastard.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34I thought, in all your charity, you might extend some sustenance

0:03:34 > 0:03:36and some shelter to this poor, unfortunate boy.

0:03:38 > 0:03:39What's your name?

0:03:41 > 0:03:42- Robert. - It's Robert.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45You know James Delaney, do you?

0:03:45 > 0:03:46Yes.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Come into the house, we'll find you something to eat

0:03:49 > 0:03:51and somewhere to sleep.

0:03:51 > 0:03:52Thank you.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54DOOR SLAMS

0:03:58 > 0:04:03Take into your loving arms this purest flake of snow,

0:04:03 > 0:04:05my daughter,

0:04:05 > 0:04:07my light, my love...

0:04:08 > 0:04:09..my Winter.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15I thought I might find you here.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19A gentle soul, taken from us all too soon.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22You've a heart, at least.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26I'm just looking for a ship.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Watching what comes and goes.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35Raise her up to your heavens and set her free by your light.

0:04:37 > 0:04:38Amen.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39- ALL:- Amen.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41I know you didn't do it.

0:04:43 > 0:04:44And how would you know that?

0:04:47 > 0:04:48Hmm?

0:04:50 > 0:04:51I very well may have.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52Mm.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54You might have done.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58But I do know you cared for her.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00You were kind to her. She told me.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17The boy Robert's arrived.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Oh!

0:05:49 > 0:05:50You OK?

0:05:52 > 0:05:53Hello.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Did you know Winter? Was she your friend?

0:05:59 > 0:06:02No. No, no, no! No, wait!

0:06:18 > 0:06:22Do you think that this will be enough to sink her?

0:06:22 > 0:06:26I've committed many bodies to the deep in this way.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27None have returned to London.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36I'm sorry for your loss.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40You will find a place where the current will take her

0:06:40 > 0:06:41to the wide ocean.

0:06:43 > 0:06:44It's where she wanted to be.

0:06:46 > 0:06:47The river will only take her body.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50I will keep her soul.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58There's no certainty it was James that did it.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01There's no certainty that he did not.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12- DISTANT VOICE: - 'I'm getting scared, James.'

0:07:15 > 0:07:16'Too many bodies in the river.'

0:07:19 > 0:07:21'Can I sleep under your house tonight?'

0:07:21 > 0:07:25JAMES: 'No. Go away, I'm not fit to be near you now.'

0:07:27 > 0:07:28James!

0:07:33 > 0:07:35You're among them now, aren't you?

0:07:38 > 0:07:40The ones who used to sing to me.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46Hm.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Was it my hand...?

0:08:02 > 0:08:05KNOCK ON DOOR

0:08:10 > 0:08:12KNOCKING CONTINUES

0:08:12 > 0:08:13Brace!

0:08:13 > 0:08:15FOOTSTEPS

0:08:15 > 0:08:17God's sake.

0:08:20 > 0:08:21KNOCKING CONTINUES

0:08:34 > 0:08:37I received a message that you wished to speak with me.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46After you have eluded me so long.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58May I sit?

0:08:58 > 0:08:59Mm-hm.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03I need to know why you're seeking me?

0:09:03 > 0:09:08First, I must tell you that I already know many things about you.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13I need to be clear that you're not a spirit, like the others.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14No.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15I'm a rationalist.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23I'm carrying out an investigation as part of a Royal Commission.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26I heard that you don't drink,

0:09:26 > 0:09:29that you don't fuck whores and, erm...

0:09:29 > 0:09:32that you're squeezing Sir Stuart Strange on behalf of the King.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35- On behalf of justice. - Oh, justice.

0:09:35 > 0:09:36Hello.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39You believe in justice?

0:09:39 > 0:09:41I do.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43And yet you're a rationalist.

0:09:45 > 0:09:48What kind of rational man believes in justice?

0:09:51 > 0:09:55I'm investigating the sinking of a sloop called the Cornwallis,

0:09:55 > 0:09:59renamed the Influence, off the coast of Cabinda in July 1804.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Mr Delaney...

0:10:05 > 0:10:08I have strong reason to believe that you were aboard the ship

0:10:08 > 0:10:09the night it sank.

0:10:21 > 0:10:26An example of the kind of nail you used to nail down the hold of

0:10:26 > 0:10:29the East India Company ship, the Cornwallis,

0:10:29 > 0:10:30when she ran aground...

0:10:32 > 0:10:34..in July 1804.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Hm.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47"Aye, aye, Captain," I said.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50I'm aware you were following orders.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52No, I happen to like driving in nails.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Takes your mind off the rain

0:10:57 > 0:10:58and off of a sinking ship.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Mr Delaney, perhaps I should come back during daytime.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07Oh, no, no, there's no use. I am always like this.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Please, carry on.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15You travelled to the Volta as a slave

0:11:15 > 0:11:18and then began to deal slaves.

0:11:18 > 0:11:22You stole diamonds from a fellow slaver

0:11:22 > 0:11:24and then returned to London.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27I have done much worse things than...

0:11:29 > 0:11:31..stealing diamonds.

0:11:32 > 0:11:33Yes.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34I know this, too.

0:11:36 > 0:11:37Ah.

0:11:43 > 0:11:44What do you want?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52As far as I can ascertain...

0:11:53 > 0:11:58..you are the only surviving member of the crew of the Cornwallis.

0:12:00 > 0:12:05I want you to write an account, naming Sir Stuart Strange

0:12:05 > 0:12:10as the man who organised the loading of the Cornwallis with slaves -

0:12:10 > 0:12:14bound for a sugar plantation in Jumby Bay, Antigua -

0:12:14 > 0:12:15owned by his own brother.

0:12:18 > 0:12:22In return, the Royal Commission will offer you

0:12:22 > 0:12:24a full pardon for your crime.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30For crime...it is.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38I have an alternative suggestion.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06KNOCK ON DOOR

0:13:08 > 0:13:09In.

0:13:33 > 0:13:34Ah-ha.

0:13:44 > 0:13:45I have a use for you.

0:14:10 > 0:14:11For the safe.

0:14:14 > 0:14:15Mm-hm?

0:14:21 > 0:14:23Go.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39GUNSHOT

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Murderer!

0:15:03 > 0:15:04Murderer!

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Do you know who blew up your ship?

0:16:44 > 0:16:48I've been thinking a lot about what happened, and...

0:16:51 > 0:16:53..and I think we were right.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58There wasn't the time for such...

0:17:04 > 0:17:06And we have plenty of time.

0:17:06 > 0:17:07No.

0:17:09 > 0:17:10No, we don't.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18When you first came back, you told me you loved me.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25- I would never have thought... - But you don't think.

0:17:25 > 0:17:26Do you?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29I know you.

0:17:30 > 0:17:31I know your nature.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33- I know you.- No.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39I believed once that we were the same person.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44We are.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47- We are not.- We are.

0:17:47 > 0:17:48Not any more.

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Hm.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Perhaps you should thank your God for that.

0:17:55 > 0:17:56No.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00No, James.

0:18:01 > 0:18:02No.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04No, you can't do this.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08Not now.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13- It is done.- Please...

0:18:21 > 0:18:23For your widowhood.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25SHE WHIMPERS

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Now...

0:18:30 > 0:18:32I have work to do, so please excuse me.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00- No fires within these walls. - I'm sorry.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11We're not moving the powder today, are we?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20So what's so urgent I had to dismount from

0:19:20 > 0:19:21a porky little Chinese?

0:19:29 > 0:19:31This is where they kept my mother.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37Hmm.

0:19:42 > 0:19:43Something for your book.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49The lioness will fiercely protect her cubs,

0:19:49 > 0:19:51regardless of the consequences.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54Even if that means her certain death.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Helga.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Is that who you mean?

0:20:04 > 0:20:06That woman will betray us.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09She knows about the division with the Americans.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11That's high treason!

0:20:11 > 0:20:15That's you, me and my lot feeding the ravens of London

0:20:15 > 0:20:16for at least a month.

0:20:16 > 0:20:17You will not harm her.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22She is harmed enough already.

0:20:29 > 0:20:30Well, she'll go to the Company.

0:20:32 > 0:20:33Yes.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38It is inevitable.

0:20:39 > 0:20:40Hmm?

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Fix the roof.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50Gunpowder and water don't mix.

0:21:04 > 0:21:05Where's Brace?

0:21:07 > 0:21:08In his room.

0:21:08 > 0:21:12He's been there all day, either mad or sick or drunk.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16We knocked.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18He won't answer.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29Brace, you are not sick and you are not dead yet.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Come out, or I will come in there and drag you out.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Talk to me about the rats.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06Every house has rats.

0:22:06 > 0:22:07Hmm.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10But after you bought so much arsenic...

0:22:12 > 0:22:14..from the apothecary in Rotherhithe...

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Pinch after pinch..

0:22:19 > 0:22:20..after pinch.

0:22:23 > 0:22:24It's a great deal of poison.

0:22:29 > 0:22:30Still, we have rats.

0:22:39 > 0:22:40What's that?

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Your father's buttons...

0:22:45 > 0:22:47..from his dress coat.

0:22:49 > 0:22:50I kept them.

0:22:55 > 0:22:56It was a kindness.

0:23:01 > 0:23:02For who?

0:23:04 > 0:23:06We couldn't go on, James.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08But you did.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10You were dead. Everyone was at his throat.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14He was burning his own flesh!

0:23:15 > 0:23:16He had no need to go on.

0:23:18 > 0:23:19Nothing left to live for.

0:23:21 > 0:23:22Hm.

0:23:27 > 0:23:28So you did him a kindness.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I put an end to his pain.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39You did him...

0:23:40 > 0:23:41..a kindness.

0:23:41 > 0:23:42I killed him!

0:23:46 > 0:23:48You came back too late!

0:23:49 > 0:23:50For both of us.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56KNOCKING

0:24:01 > 0:24:03You are wanted urgently downstairs.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07Mrs Delaney is destroying the kitchen.

0:24:07 > 0:24:08She's about to ruin a duck.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Your ten o'clock is 20 minutes early, sir.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22Oh, good.

0:24:22 > 0:24:26Then my 12 o'clock can be my 11.30, my one o'clock can be my 12,

0:24:26 > 0:24:30and before you know it, the day will be over before it's begun.

0:24:31 > 0:24:32Send him in.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34It's a woman, sir.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Actually, two women, sir.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Let me get this clear.

0:24:42 > 0:24:47You were witness to the division of gunpowder and you heard,

0:24:47 > 0:24:52with your own ears, that a proportion of this said powder

0:24:52 > 0:24:57was to be sold to a citizen of the United States of America?

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Not sold, but given.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02On direct instruction of James Delaney himself, sir.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07And you witnessed this, too?

0:25:12 > 0:25:14- She will have to say it, sir. - Yes, yes.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15Ssh.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17You'll have to say it out loud.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20You witnessed the division of the gunpowder

0:25:20 > 0:25:22and you heard its destination.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Yes, I did, sir.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32And you were both being paid for your services

0:25:32 > 0:25:35by James Keziah Delaney himself?

0:25:36 > 0:25:37In gold.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41And silver.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43And you're a British citizen?

0:25:43 > 0:25:45German by birth, British by marriage.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48And you?

0:25:48 > 0:25:50I'm from Dulwich, sir.

0:25:50 > 0:25:51Dulwich?

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Very good.

0:25:59 > 0:26:03Gentlemen, we have two witnesses willing to testify that

0:26:03 > 0:26:07Delaney gave gunpowder to an enemy of the Crown

0:26:07 > 0:26:09within the confines of the City of London...

0:26:10 > 0:26:14..compassing the death of His Majesty the King.

0:26:18 > 0:26:19Well, it's...

0:26:19 > 0:26:20treason.

0:26:22 > 0:26:23High treason.

0:26:26 > 0:26:27We have him.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31We fucking have him!

0:26:32 > 0:26:34We have Delaney, we have Nootka,

0:26:34 > 0:26:37we have the China trade.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39We have opium, tea and powder.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41He'll be cut to pieces.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46A piece each, gentlemen.

0:26:46 > 0:26:47Gentlemen.

0:26:47 > 0:26:48Sir?

0:26:48 > 0:26:49Can we go now?

0:26:51 > 0:26:52Go?

0:26:52 > 0:26:54THEY LAUGH

0:26:54 > 0:26:56No, no, no, no.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59You are far, far too precious to go anywhere.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04And as accessories for a crime against the Crown,

0:27:04 > 0:27:07there will be due process.

0:27:07 > 0:27:08Take them.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11You'll be held in a secure place until your pardon

0:27:11 > 0:27:14can be exchanged for your testimony in court.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16What?

0:27:16 > 0:27:17Ugh! Get off me!

0:27:17 > 0:27:19- Don't hurt them!- Get off me!

0:27:36 > 0:27:37Where is he?

0:27:40 > 0:27:41They would not be denied, sir.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43This is the Prince's house.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45You should have dragged them out on their arses.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Stuart Strange is a Knight of the Realm, I could not lay

0:27:47 > 0:27:50- a hand on him. - Ssh, ssh, ssh.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59What the hell do you think you're doing?

0:28:00 > 0:28:02We have some rather good news...

0:28:02 > 0:28:05for British patriots everywhere.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26HORSE SNORTS

0:28:55 > 0:28:57- ECHOING:- James!

0:28:57 > 0:28:58SCREAMING

0:28:58 > 0:29:00James! You are betrayed!

0:29:04 > 0:29:07Two women came to Leadenhall...

0:29:10 > 0:29:12I know.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17Where are they now?

0:29:17 > 0:29:18A safe house.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20I have the address.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25I have a use for you.

0:29:28 > 0:29:31There's someone I need you to see.

0:29:35 > 0:29:38"In the event of a conviction for high treason,

0:29:38 > 0:29:42"compassing the death of our Lord the King,

0:29:42 > 0:29:46"then the law of 'Corruption of Blood'

0:29:46 > 0:29:49"will take precedence over all other.

0:29:49 > 0:29:53"All land, property, chattels and investments of the guilty party

0:29:53 > 0:29:58"will pass without hindrance to the Crown.

0:29:58 > 0:30:02"And by dint of 'Corruption of Blood',

0:30:02 > 0:30:05"all family members of the guilty party

0:30:05 > 0:30:08"will be deemed corrupted

0:30:08 > 0:30:14"and any claim to land, property, chattels or investment...

0:30:15 > 0:30:17"..will be null and void."

0:30:20 > 0:30:24So...you've not only delivered us Delaney,

0:30:24 > 0:30:28it appears you've delivered Nootka Sound to the King.

0:30:28 > 0:30:30Hm.

0:30:31 > 0:30:32Why?

0:30:34 > 0:30:38Well, as loyal subjects of the Crown,

0:30:38 > 0:30:39we feel it is our duty

0:30:39 > 0:30:43to expose disloyalty and treason in time of war.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47- However... - Go on.

0:30:49 > 0:30:54..the ladies who are to give the crucial evidence

0:30:54 > 0:30:57against James Delaney are now in the protective custody

0:30:57 > 0:30:59of the East India Company.

0:30:59 > 0:31:00HE CHUCKLES

0:31:00 > 0:31:06Their whereabouts are...known to just a handful of trusted directors

0:31:06 > 0:31:11so, to ensure their safe delivery,

0:31:11 > 0:31:17we humbly suggest you assign a monopoly.

0:31:19 > 0:31:23The trade in sea otter pelts for tea

0:31:23 > 0:31:26between Nootka and China.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29In favour of the loyal and...

0:31:31 > 0:31:33..honourable East India Company.

0:31:36 > 0:31:37The King gets the land.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41You get the tea trade.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50You got lucky with a whore, Stuart.

0:31:52 > 0:31:54Well, there was an element of fortune.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57And an element of God's grace.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59And an element of strategy.

0:32:02 > 0:32:03Hm.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07So get to it.

0:32:07 > 0:32:08Arrest the bastard.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10Thank you, madam.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47DOOR OPENS

0:32:48 > 0:32:52Mr Chichester, this is the man I told you about -

0:32:52 > 0:32:54Michael Godfrey.

0:32:54 > 0:32:56George Chichester.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59Goodness, your hand is cold.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01I have been on the heath.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03I'm not sure I can go through with this.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05Let us at least sit and talk.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13You lead a very interesting life.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16James, if he is religious and scornful...

0:33:16 > 0:33:19I am scornful of those who judge.

0:33:19 > 0:33:22I myself am only concerned with men's minds -

0:33:22 > 0:33:24clothes are of no interest to me.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29We can talk with purpose or without.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31Godders, no gin.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43Your account of the sinking of the Cornwallis changes everything.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46Is there no world in which I could offer my account anonymously?

0:33:46 > 0:33:49A Royal Commission cannot accept anonymous testimony.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53I would be reporting things said from a raised hand...

0:33:53 > 0:33:57- Yes.- ..by the most senior directors of the East India Company.

0:33:59 > 0:34:00Yes.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07How long have you worked for the East India Company?

0:34:07 > 0:34:09I have only been clerk for 12 years.

0:34:09 > 0:34:12I have no idea how many years it was going on for...

0:34:12 > 0:34:15No, but you were present during the meeting when Sir Stuart

0:34:15 > 0:34:18concealed the facts about the sinking of the Cornwallis.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20Would you agree to testify?

0:34:22 > 0:34:27Mr Chichester, would you please allow me a few moments alone?

0:34:35 > 0:34:38DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:34:48 > 0:34:53Now, listen here, Godders, I'm going to sail away, all right?

0:34:53 > 0:34:57And all of those who have use to me will sail along with me.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59And on my ship,

0:34:59 > 0:35:01there will be no rules and there will be no judgment.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04We're sailing to a new world and that is the plan.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06James...

0:35:06 > 0:35:09you are a fool.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12They are going to hang you.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14No.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17No, their case will flounder. They can't.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20And we can make this happen.

0:35:20 > 0:35:21You and me.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23And the best of it...

0:35:24 > 0:35:28..you will never have to testify.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30My ship will sail long before the commission even sits.

0:35:33 > 0:35:38All you have to do is make-believe...

0:35:38 > 0:35:40to this man here.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43All right?

0:35:44 > 0:35:46Now, you can do that, can't you?

0:35:48 > 0:35:50Right. Right.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Hm.

0:35:57 > 0:36:01We're good. Mr Godfrey has decided he will do the honourable thing.

0:36:01 > 0:36:05Your testimony will be with you within the week.

0:36:06 > 0:36:07Signed?

0:36:07 > 0:36:09And sealed.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12And if required, he will stand up in court?

0:36:12 > 0:36:14Let the good Lord be my witness...

0:36:14 > 0:36:19I will yell out the truth to the four winds.

0:36:24 > 0:36:29Until that happy resolution, I bid you good day, gentlemen.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37Mount up! To the Molly House!

0:36:42 > 0:36:44I cannot pack up my entire life in five minutes.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47Well, you can pack it up or you can lose it.

0:36:47 > 0:36:50This is ridiculous. What about you?

0:36:50 > 0:36:52I'm being followed.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56The Crown have soldiers searching for me everywhere, so it ends here.

0:36:56 > 0:36:58- Here?- Yes.

0:36:58 > 0:36:59When?

0:36:59 > 0:37:01- I don't know. - Jesus Christ!

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Are you just going to sit?!

0:37:07 > 0:37:09Well, what's the use in hiding? I need a ship and passage.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12James, they're not going to give you a ship, they're going to hang you!

0:37:12 > 0:37:14No, no, no. Look...

0:37:14 > 0:37:16go to this address, all right?

0:37:16 > 0:37:18There will be a man with markings on his face to meet you -

0:37:18 > 0:37:20he will take you to my friend Atticus.

0:37:20 > 0:37:23Tell my friend Atticus where Helga is.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26Write your account - he will secure it and keep you safe.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Safe? Safe?

0:37:29 > 0:37:32When my ship is ready, I will send for you.

0:37:32 > 0:37:34James, for God's sake,

0:37:34 > 0:37:36you don't have a bloody ship!

0:37:38 > 0:37:39No.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Not yet.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54Right, ladies, you might want to leave this place.

0:37:54 > 0:37:55There are soldiers coming.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58Soldiers? Then surely we should stay!

0:37:58 > 0:38:01LAUGHTER

0:38:04 > 0:38:05You're almost out of wine!

0:38:05 > 0:38:07I know! That wine's gone to my head!

0:38:07 > 0:38:09LAUGHTER

0:38:09 > 0:38:10Oh, here he comes.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15Who said that?

0:38:15 > 0:38:16Me.

0:38:20 > 0:38:21Right.

0:38:24 > 0:38:29I suggest that you leave very quickly...

0:38:29 > 0:38:32and very, very quietly...

0:38:33 > 0:38:36..or you can stay...

0:38:36 > 0:38:39for the extreme violence that is coming your way.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46- Your choice. - Come on, ladies.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53Hm.

0:38:57 > 0:38:58Go!

0:39:00 > 0:39:02He must be taken alive...

0:39:02 > 0:39:05by order of His Majesty King George!

0:39:09 > 0:39:10In here, Captain!

0:39:15 > 0:39:17James Keziah Delaney,

0:39:17 > 0:39:20you are hereby charged with high treason,

0:39:20 > 0:39:23compassing the death of our Lord the King!

0:39:27 > 0:39:30Dr Dumbarton!

0:39:30 > 0:39:32Dr Dumbarton!

0:39:32 > 0:39:34A merchant has been arrested for high treason.

0:39:34 > 0:39:37In league with Americans - you must clear out.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40When my reds are red and my whites are white

0:39:40 > 0:39:44and my blues are blue, then I will clear out.

0:40:19 > 0:40:20All right.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22HE GRUNTS

0:40:25 > 0:40:27You bastard!

0:40:28 > 0:40:30You traitor!

0:40:30 > 0:40:31JAMES GROANS

0:40:41 > 0:40:42Get up!

0:41:17 > 0:41:20- Where's Temple? - He's not coming!

0:41:20 > 0:41:22Don't he want his share?

0:41:22 > 0:41:25- Hurry up, Temple! - Come on, Temple!

0:41:34 > 0:41:38Hello. I've been looking for you.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54I want her to forgive me.

0:41:56 > 0:41:57For what?

0:42:02 > 0:42:06You know it's a sin not to tell the truth in a sacred place.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18Brace?

0:42:18 > 0:42:22Brace? Brace, where's James? I need to talk to him.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Brace, I spoke to a witness.

0:42:30 > 0:42:31It wasn't James that killed the girl,

0:42:31 > 0:42:34it was the Company, it was the East India Company.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36I need to tell James.

0:42:38 > 0:42:39SCRUBBING STOPS

0:42:46 > 0:42:47Arsenic is gentle.

0:42:52 > 0:42:53It was mercy.

0:42:53 > 0:42:56Horace was no longer a Christian soul.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00I only wish I'd killed James, too.

0:43:02 > 0:43:04Give him a kind death.

0:43:04 > 0:43:07Protect him from himself.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11Instead, they've got him.

0:43:11 > 0:43:13What do you mean? Where is he?

0:43:13 > 0:43:15They took him to the Tower...

0:43:17 > 0:43:21..where no-one will be kind enough to feed him arsenic.

0:43:21 > 0:43:23CHAINS JANGLE

0:43:32 > 0:43:34Mr Delaney...

0:43:35 > 0:43:39..His Majesty seeks information.

0:43:41 > 0:43:44I really have no taste for this,

0:43:44 > 0:43:47so perhaps we can conduct this business like gentlemen.

0:43:48 > 0:43:52They will allow no easy escape...

0:43:52 > 0:43:54to death.

0:44:00 > 0:44:02Since it is imperative that we keep you alive

0:44:02 > 0:44:05until after your conviction for treason,

0:44:05 > 0:44:11the doctor is here to help and assist Mr Arrow,

0:44:11 > 0:44:16who will do most of the necessary work.

0:44:16 > 0:44:18Although, for some tasks,

0:44:18 > 0:44:21he will need helpers with strong hands.

0:44:25 > 0:44:29And together, they will walk you along a tightrope.

0:44:30 > 0:44:33A line between life...

0:44:33 > 0:44:35and death.

0:44:35 > 0:44:37HEAVY BREATHING

0:44:37 > 0:44:39We need the names of all the people

0:44:39 > 0:44:42who helped you manufacture the gunpowder...

0:44:43 > 0:44:46..move the gunpowder, but most pressingly of all,

0:44:46 > 0:44:48we need the names of all the members

0:44:48 > 0:44:52of the Society of Secret Correspondence

0:44:52 > 0:44:54that you have dealt with.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02The Americans.

0:45:04 > 0:45:09The places you met. Code names, signals.

0:45:11 > 0:45:14The location of the powder you gave them.

0:45:18 > 0:45:20Now, if you can give me all that

0:45:20 > 0:45:22and what you tell us is corroborated,

0:45:22 > 0:45:25then...then these people won't be needed

0:45:25 > 0:45:28and you will await trial in the same cell

0:45:28 > 0:45:31that Thomas Moore occupied,

0:45:31 > 0:45:34with not an unpleasant view of the River Thames.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38So...?

0:45:40 > 0:45:44I will give you all the information that you request...

0:45:46 > 0:45:50..but in return, I will need a single meeting with

0:45:50 > 0:45:54Sir Stuart Strange of the East India Company

0:45:54 > 0:45:59here, in a cell, and in private.

0:46:00 > 0:46:04HE CHUCKLES

0:46:05 > 0:46:09News of my arrest will already be spreading.

0:46:09 > 0:46:14Those people that you seek - they will already be fleeing London.

0:46:14 > 0:46:19You allow me my meeting with Stuart Strange and perhaps,

0:46:19 > 0:46:21perhaps you will catch your Americans

0:46:21 > 0:46:23before they reach the ports.

0:46:25 > 0:46:26HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:46:43 > 0:46:44TEARING

0:46:47 > 0:46:51JAMES SCREAMS IN PAIN

0:47:04 > 0:47:06How long do you think it'll take?

0:47:06 > 0:47:08One, maybe two hours.

0:47:08 > 0:47:14Well, in that case, Mr Delaney, Sir Stuart Strange is busy.

0:47:19 > 0:47:20JAMES WHIMPERS IN PAIN

0:47:37 > 0:47:39MUFFLED PANTING

0:48:03 > 0:48:06Give us the Americans and then we'll stop!

0:48:33 > 0:48:35MUFFLED GROANING

0:48:37 > 0:48:39Sir!

0:48:42 > 0:48:44What did you say?

0:48:44 > 0:48:47Mr Delaney, what did you say?

0:48:52 > 0:48:54WEAKLY: Stuart Strange...

0:49:13 > 0:49:14Caddy...

0:49:14 > 0:49:18if you've lost your master, go to the clubhouse and ask.

0:49:18 > 0:49:19Thank you.

0:49:28 > 0:49:30Don't stand there gawping.

0:49:30 > 0:49:32I have no master, sir.

0:49:32 > 0:49:34- CHUCKLING: - Well, you're not a player.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37No. Not of this game.

0:49:40 > 0:49:43Look, do you mind? I've got a shot to make.

0:49:43 > 0:49:45So make it.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51Who the hell are you?

0:49:52 > 0:49:55My name is George Chichester.

0:49:55 > 0:49:59And when you have taken your shot, I'd like to talk to you.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06I have nothing to say to you.

0:50:09 > 0:50:12You should know that I have testimony

0:50:12 > 0:50:14from a reliable witness...

0:50:14 > 0:50:16I've told you, I have nothing to say to you.

0:50:16 > 0:50:20..someone who will swear on oath that it was you who organised

0:50:20 > 0:50:26the loading of human cargo onto the Cornwallis bound for Antigua.

0:50:27 > 0:50:32If your witness is Delaney, I think you should know that, even now,

0:50:32 > 0:50:37he is being held in the Tower of London charged with treason.

0:50:39 > 0:50:45Your "reliable witness" is a plotter against the life of the King!

0:50:46 > 0:50:47No.

0:50:49 > 0:50:51I have another witness.

0:51:11 > 0:51:13Where exactly are we going?

0:51:39 > 0:51:40Fuck!

0:51:45 > 0:51:52We are aware that you have a certain...capacity for pain...

0:51:53 > 0:51:58..which is why we've invited Dr Ling.
