0:00:38 > 0:00:40Who do you trust?

0:00:43 > 0:00:45How do you know?

0:00:47 > 0:00:49By how they appear...

0:00:52 > 0:00:54..or what they say?

0:00:56 > 0:00:57What they do?

0:00:59 > 0:01:00How?

0:01:24 > 0:01:25We all have secrets.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32We all tell lies, just to keep them...

0:01:34 > 0:01:35..from each other...

0:01:37 > 0:01:39..and from ourselves.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46But sometimes...

0:01:48 > 0:01:49..rarely...

0:01:53 > 0:01:57..something can happen that leaves you no choice...

0:01:58 > 0:02:00..but to reveal it.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07To let the world see who you really are.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14- Your secret self. - HE GASPS

0:02:27 > 0:02:29GUN FIRES

0:02:29 > 0:02:31LOUD THUMP

0:02:31 > 0:02:33But mostly, we tell lies.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36We hide our secrets from each other,

0:02:36 > 0:02:38from ourselves.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43And the easiest way to do this is not to even know that you are.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45So when you think about it like that...

0:02:47 > 0:02:50..it's a wonder we trust anyone at all.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20(Don't be afraid.)

0:03:22 > 0:03:24- CHILD:- I'm safe.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27- CRYING:- I can't do this.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Well, the girls won't manage any of this.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02Atika, the girls won't eat any of this. Would you be a sweetheart

0:08:02 > 0:08:04and ask them if they could have something simpler?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Of course, Mrs Stein.

0:08:06 > 0:08:07Stay still, Kasim.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12Why does she always do that?

0:08:12 > 0:08:14Hmm?

0:08:14 > 0:08:17Use my surname. It makes me look bad.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20There you are, my lovely Rachel.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23You look wonderful!

0:08:23 > 0:08:26I wonder why you still keep him.

0:08:26 > 0:08:27Eh, my boy.

0:08:29 > 0:08:30All good?

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Your sister. Ah, a Lady.

0:08:35 > 0:08:36Who'd've thought?

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Come here. Give old Shlomo a hug!

0:08:40 > 0:08:42You all right?

0:08:42 > 0:08:43So, have I got it?

0:08:45 > 0:08:46I don't know.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Even if I did, I couldn't tell you, could I?

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Well, you could give me a hint cos I've seen the shit in your nappies.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Nessa runs the business, Shlomo.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Now, yes. But there was a time...

0:08:57 > 0:08:59I just run the foundation.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01If you're looking for a job as a professor or something,

0:09:01 > 0:09:03then maybe I could help you out.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Professor! I got three ways I spell my own name.

0:09:07 > 0:09:08Do I need to find a new job?

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Sholmo. I don't know, honestly.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12All you have to do is wait a couple of minutes.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14She's going to announce it in her speech.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Why so theatrical?

0:09:16 > 0:09:19You can't leak these things. It wouldn't be fair, would it?

0:09:19 > 0:09:21And you always got to be fair, right?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23It's how we survive, Shlomo.

0:09:23 > 0:09:27Is that why that Palestinian bastard, Samir Meshal, has been invited?

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Everyone who's put in a tender has been invited.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Hasn't turned up yet, I see.

0:09:33 > 0:09:34Well...

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Waiting to make some big fucking entrance on some big fucking camel

0:09:39 > 0:09:43just to prove he's such a big fucking Arab, huh?

0:09:43 > 0:09:47I tell you, he wins that contract and I get my hands on his neck...

0:09:47 > 0:09:51fuck the Six-Day War, it'll be over in seconds.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53- CROWD APPLAUDS - Best of luck.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55So now I need luck, eh?

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Shlomo!

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Hello... what a day.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11I can't tell you how heavy that robe is!

0:10:13 > 0:10:15I do have an announcement to make,

0:10:15 > 0:10:17but first I'd just like to say a couple of things.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20The violinist here today is Mustapha Shamar.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22He's a virtuoso,

0:10:22 > 0:10:24he's a graduate of the Stein Music Centre in Ramallah

0:10:24 > 0:10:27and this Saturday night, he's going to be playing

0:10:27 > 0:10:28at the Royal College of Music.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34I can't think of a better example of what we're trying to achieve here.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37And I'm certain that he would not be here today

0:10:37 > 0:10:39if it weren't for one man...

0:10:39 > 0:10:42my brother, Ephra Stein.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Unlike his sister, he doesn't court the limelight,

0:10:44 > 0:10:48probably because he's an awful lot cleverer than me.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51But as President of the Stein Foundation, it's his educational

0:10:51 > 0:10:55programmes that make sense of everything else I try to do.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59So make no mistake, as this is my hand, that is his!

0:10:59 > 0:11:00Thank you, Ephra.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Where is Kasim?

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Have you seen Kasim?

0:11:14 > 0:11:15OK. I'm looking.

0:11:15 > 0:11:22So, these aliens decide to invade Earth and to show they mean business

0:11:22 > 0:11:25what they do is first they destroy London then New York

0:11:25 > 0:11:28and then they land, right on the Green Line

0:11:28 > 0:11:30between Israel and the West Bank.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32And they decide to call a meeting

0:11:32 > 0:11:35between the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli Government.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37And their message is simple.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40"Resistance is useless! Lay down your arms!"

0:11:42 > 0:11:44I can't really tell you the detail of what happened next,

0:11:44 > 0:11:47but basically by the end of it your sympathy was with the aliens.

0:11:54 > 0:11:5629 years ago,

0:11:56 > 0:11:59my father, Eli Stein,

0:11:59 > 0:12:01was murdered here in this room.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12He was a wonderful father to my brother and me.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15But first and foremost, I think it's fair to say,

0:12:15 > 0:12:17he was a great son of Israel.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21- IN THE DISTANCE:- He arrived here in Britain in 1939

0:12:21 > 0:12:23a refugee and an orphan.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27This country took him in and the protection it offered

0:12:27 > 0:12:30became the defining experience of his life.

0:12:31 > 0:12:35Eli Stein believed that no home could thrive

0:12:35 > 0:12:38unless it was surrounded by strong walls.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41And so, yes, it's true.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44His company name, my family name,

0:12:44 > 0:12:50was stamped on the side of mortar shells and rifles and tanks...

0:12:50 > 0:12:53because that's what my father offered Israel.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Strong walls for a fledgling nation.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00And that's what cost him his life, here in this room...

0:13:02 > 0:13:03..29 years ago.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Kasim?

0:13:09 > 0:13:12- IN THE DISTANCE:- Last year, Israel's gross domestic product...

0:13:12 > 0:13:16exceeded 220 billion dollars.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19I know my father would be very proud of that figure.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22A fledgling state no more, I think you'll agree,

0:13:22 > 0:13:26but one that's thriving within strong walls.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Last year, the combined domestic product

0:13:31 > 0:13:35of the Palestinian territories barely touched four billion dollars.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38Four.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40What a difference a wall makes.

0:13:44 > 0:13:50I believe in Israel and I believe I can say this with heartfelt intent,

0:13:50 > 0:13:53because like Her, I am also an orphan.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57I lost most of my extended family to the Holocaust,

0:13:57 > 0:13:59my father here in this room

0:13:59 > 0:14:02and my mother to childbirth, delivering me.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05My brother and I know what it means

0:14:05 > 0:14:09to have to forge an existence alone, without family.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Kasim?

0:14:10 > 0:14:12- IN THE DISTANCE: - And how precious it is, no...

0:14:12 > 0:14:13It's Mummy!

0:14:13 > 0:14:15..how necessary it is to feel...

0:14:15 > 0:14:17secure after such a loss.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21But when Ephra and I took over this company,

0:14:21 > 0:14:27almost a decade ago now, we decided on a fundamental change.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30In our view, amongst the greatest threats to Israel

0:14:30 > 0:14:32is Palestinian poverty.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35Terror thrives in poverty,

0:14:35 > 0:14:37it dies in wealth.

0:14:38 > 0:14:43And so we decided that instead of mines, we would lay cables.

0:14:43 > 0:14:48Millions of miles of cables, for telephones, for the internet,

0:14:48 > 0:14:51millions of miles of communication.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54Because we believe that the strongest wall

0:14:54 > 0:14:57we can help Israel to maintain,

0:14:57 > 0:15:01is the one through which equality of opportunity can pass.

0:15:04 > 0:15:05Kasim?

0:15:13 > 0:15:16And so today, after months of negotiation with both

0:15:16 > 0:15:19the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli government,

0:15:19 > 0:15:22I am finally in a position to announce

0:15:22 > 0:15:25that the Phase Three roll-out of broadband internet

0:15:25 > 0:15:28throughout the West Bank has been agreed.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30Fibre optic...

0:15:30 > 0:15:33linking every university, every hospital,

0:15:33 > 0:15:35every school to high-speed internet.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37Universities we helped fund

0:15:37 > 0:15:42to give hospitals we helped to build the graduates they need.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51- MAN:- Are you lost?

0:15:53 > 0:15:57As you know, the Stein Group is always looking to make partnerships

0:15:57 > 0:16:00and I know the competition for this particular contract has been fierce.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04But I am now in a position to say that the winner

0:16:04 > 0:16:06of the Phase Three contract...

0:16:08 > 0:16:12..is Samir Meshal of Qassim Communications.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14CROWD APPLAUDS

0:16:25 > 0:16:27Is he here?

0:16:43 > 0:16:45Kasim!

0:16:46 > 0:16:48He was nice.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53He was a stranger! And what do strangers do?

0:16:53 > 0:16:56They steal little boys who don't tell their mother

0:16:56 > 0:16:58where they're going, OK?

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Great. Come on.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11What the fuck you think you've done, hmm?

0:17:11 > 0:17:14- I'm sorry.- Oh, you're sorry?

0:17:14 > 0:17:18I rolled out Phase One and Phase Two just for you and now you're sorry?

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Samir fucking Meshal.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23That guy is so mired in Palestinian politics,

0:17:23 > 0:17:26he opens his eyes, they're still covered in shit.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28He's clean, Shlomo. We checked.

0:17:28 > 0:17:29Oh, you checked.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Just like we have to check on everyone who wants to work with us.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Just like we had to check on you.

0:17:35 > 0:17:36Well, what's that?

0:17:36 > 0:17:40In October 2009, you received a contract for 287 million dollars

0:17:40 > 0:17:44from a Lebanese French private bank to supply computer systems,

0:17:44 > 0:17:47which were then shipped to a West African state.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49The proceeds of their resale were then returned

0:17:49 > 0:17:52to a Lebanese holding account, where they were then layered through

0:17:52 > 0:17:55a number of further shell companies until the laundered funds

0:17:55 > 0:17:57finally arrived back to their original source.

0:17:57 > 0:17:58Hezbollah.

0:18:03 > 0:18:04This is bullshit.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07I'm sure the original sale was perfectly legal

0:18:07 > 0:18:10and you were unaware of what followed.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12But unfortunately, we had to be.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16(What the fuck...?)

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Where'd you get this? Hmm?

0:18:24 > 0:18:27All right, it's not true.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30You listening to me? It's not true.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34We cannot carry secrets, Shlomo. Ever.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37But it isn't one of them. Whoever gave you this is lying.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42Sorry! You're sorry, for Christ's sakes! Ness, I...

0:18:42 > 0:18:43Ephra, pull your sister in line!

0:18:43 > 0:18:46Like I said, Shlomo, she runs the business.

0:18:46 > 0:18:47Oh, she runs the business.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Are you, are you mad? Are you fucking mad?

0:18:49 > 0:18:51You're getting rid of me?

0:18:52 > 0:18:55I've been loyal to your family longer than you've been alive.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57- I know that.- You know, you know.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01You keep picking and choosing and dropping and fucking up,

0:19:01 > 0:19:03pretty soon you end up on your own.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05And out there...

0:19:05 > 0:19:07trust me, you can't be alone.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09I'm not alone.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13Oh, you think a red robe is going to protect you, huh?

0:19:13 > 0:19:16Is that what this is, some massive father thing?

0:19:16 > 0:19:20You think that place is going to protect you, because he can't?

0:19:20 > 0:19:23All they want to do is keep you so close you can't escape

0:19:23 > 0:19:24when they decide to knife you.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Nessa, my daughter, you have enemies enough already.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36It's the Middle East, Shlomo. Enemies is what you make.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41So all the more reason to keep your friends.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49I'm sorry.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53MAN ON PHONE: 'So what does it finally feel like

0:19:53 > 0:19:54'to be in the House of Lords?'

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- A great honour.- 'But why you?'

0:19:57 > 0:20:00I hope it's a reflection of the UK's continuing commitment to the

0:20:00 > 0:20:04Middle East and to progressive ways of thinking about it.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06'It's controversial appointment, though.'

0:20:06 > 0:20:08No, no controversy.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11I was interviewed extensively.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13I'll serve as an independent cross-bencher

0:20:13 > 0:20:16with no party affiliation whatsoever. None.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19'But you're an Israeli.'

0:20:19 > 0:20:23Well, I was born and raised in the UK, my companies are based here,

0:20:23 > 0:20:27the Stein Group is here, we employ over 3,000 people here

0:20:27 > 0:20:31with annual exports of over 350 million on which we pay UK tax,

0:20:31 > 0:20:34both personal and corporate...

0:20:34 > 0:20:38So I think that makes me a UK citizen, don't you?

0:20:38 > 0:20:40'Well, you do hold an Israeli passport.'

0:20:40 > 0:20:43Anyone with direct Jewish ancestry holds that right.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45'Well, you certainly have the ancestry.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48'Eli Stein, The Sword Of Israel, your father.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50'That's quite an inheritance.'

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Well, I hope you'll recognise that it's precisely

0:20:53 > 0:20:58because of what we've chosen to do with it that I'm here today.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00'Do you have close protection, Lady Stein?'

0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Yes, I do.- 'Why?'

0:21:06 > 0:21:09It's an unfortunate necessity.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12'But you're meant to be everyone's friend, aren't you?'

0:21:12 > 0:21:15There are militant factions on both sides, so realistically...

0:21:15 > 0:21:17'Sorry, but are you a realist?

0:21:17 > 0:21:19'Because as an idealist,

0:21:19 > 0:21:21'I'd completely understand why you'd need a bodyguard.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24'After all, when it comes to the history of the Middle East

0:21:24 > 0:21:26'it never ends well for idealists, does it?'

0:21:31 > 0:21:33Hello. Hi.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36It was so good to see you! Thank you for coming...

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- Hello.- Hello!- Wonderful speech.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42It's been ages since I've seen both of you. Hope you're happy.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43Thank you.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Thank you so much for coming.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53- Hello.- Monica Chatwin. Foreign Office. Washington bureau.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55- Oh.- Although I'm due to return here soon.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58- I have a particular interest in the Middle East.- I see.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01And I just wanted to say hello so you can put a face to the name.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03Well, now you have. Thank you.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06Don't worry about it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08- IN THE DISTANCE:- Hello. I can't tell you how much...

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Run along and find Mummy, I'll come down soon.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13- IN DISTANCE:- So nice to see you all here. Thank you.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16I hope from now on you'll feel you have all the support you deserve.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18- From who? - The British government.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20- The support but not influence. - Of course not.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23It's simply recognition of the UK's historic responsibility

0:22:23 > 0:22:25- to the Middle East.- I hope so.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27Oh, I know so. I heard it from the Prime Minister's lips.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Excuse me, what job exactly are you about to take on, Mrs...?

0:22:30 > 0:22:32- Monica...- Chatwin.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Oh, shh...

0:22:34 > 0:22:36But I'm sure you'll be asking your security

0:22:36 > 0:22:38the moment I've turned my back.

0:22:38 > 0:22:39- Congratulations! - Thank you very much.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41- It really is a wonderful day. - Thank you.

0:22:45 > 0:22:46MI6.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Julia Walsh is bringing her back to run the Middle East desk.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52- I thought Hayden-Hoyle was doing that?- So does he.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00- Why are you here? - To congratulate your sister.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02Leave her alone.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05- I just offered her my help. - She doesn't need your help.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07She has before and I think she might again.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08Stay away from my sister.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14It's my job, Ephra, keeping secrets.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17So what are you worrying about?

0:23:20 > 0:23:22Yours is perfectly safe.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37OK, just a couple more minutes.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39RACHEL: What have you been doing with your hands?

0:23:39 > 0:23:41- EPHRA:- Sorry.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43Where have you been?

0:23:43 > 0:23:45Just someone I haven't seen in years.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47All right? All right.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Oh, Nessa. What they do to our bodies, you would never believe.

0:23:54 > 0:23:55Hello.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57Hello.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02That's a very big watch.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04- RECORDING OF WAITER'S VOICE: - 'Are you lost?'

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Well, let's hope not.

0:24:08 > 0:24:09We're ready.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40They're all good names.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43And who might be your choice for successor?

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Julia knows my choice. He's been my deputy for three years.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49And if it wasn't him?

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Then it wouldn't be my choice.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53The next one, please.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01It's not my choice.

0:25:03 > 0:25:04When?

0:25:04 > 0:25:08Well, obviously, we'd like you to finish up on whatever's outstanding.

0:25:13 > 0:25:14And then you'll be free.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28You haven't asked me who it's going to be.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36- Is it you?- Oh, no, no.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39I'm not a... Actually, what are you?

0:25:39 > 0:25:42Oh, a son of a...Lord?

0:25:43 > 0:25:44Baronet.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47Baronet. From Ireland.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Now there's a conflict.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51Maybe that's why they gave me the Middle East.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54It's a dangerous kind of spy,

0:25:54 > 0:25:56Sir Hugh, who even lies to himself.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Wait.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16You really want these so much?

0:26:18 > 0:26:21And this is just so perfect.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29Because we all know THAT'S how you really got the job...

0:26:32 > 0:26:36Well, I don't suppose you fucked Dame Julia with them on.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Sir Hugh.

0:26:50 > 0:26:51DOORBELL RINGS

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Lady Hoyle.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05I tore up that name with our credit cards, Hugh.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08Just one of the many things I've left behind.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12I like your hair.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15Is that the line you always use?

0:27:15 > 0:27:18Because I'm surprised it's ever worked.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24What do you want?

0:27:25 > 0:27:28If I'd told you the truth, would you have stayed?

0:27:32 > 0:27:33I'm too tired.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38I only lied because I didn't want to hurt you.

0:27:40 > 0:27:44Hugh, most people get fucked by their job, not for it.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Still...least you got a nice car.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Not sure for how long.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Is that sulphur I can smell?

0:28:03 > 0:28:04I'm not a devil, Angie.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07Didn't say you were.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10But I'm sure you've made a deal with one.

0:29:40 > 0:29:46HAUNTING MUSIC DROWNS SOUNDS

0:29:58 > 0:30:00Samir Meshal.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03Palestinian. Multimillionaire. Telecommunications.

0:30:03 > 0:30:04I know him.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07He's dead.

0:30:08 > 0:30:12Suicide. Approximately two o'clock this afternoon.

0:30:12 > 0:30:14How?

0:30:14 > 0:30:18Hung himself from a flagpole wrapped in his national flag.

0:30:20 > 0:30:21How very patriotic.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29Are you sure it's suicide?

0:30:29 > 0:30:31From what I can gather, he left a note.

0:30:33 > 0:30:34Hmm.

0:30:36 > 0:30:37This...

0:30:39 > 0:30:41Definitely from him?

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Well, those are his fingerprints. It's addressed to his wife.

0:30:47 > 0:30:49Do you think if I'd learnt to read Arabic,

0:30:49 > 0:30:52- it would have made my job a whole lot easier?- Sir.

0:30:56 > 0:30:57Why'd it come to us?

0:30:59 > 0:31:01This.

0:31:05 > 0:31:07We need to speak to the Israelis.

0:31:07 > 0:31:08I'll set up a meeting.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11For a formal response, go right ahead, but for a truthful one,

0:31:11 > 0:31:14- or at least the chance of it, leave it with me.- Sir.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39Someone about to win a multimillion contract

0:31:39 > 0:31:41just goes and puts a rope round his neck?

0:31:45 > 0:31:47Maybe he couldn't stand the wait.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56You think he's been killed.

0:31:56 > 0:31:57You don't?

0:31:58 > 0:32:00It's odd, I agree.

0:32:01 > 0:32:03Someone gets cancer, I think they've been given it.

0:32:06 > 0:32:07I'll look into it.

0:32:11 > 0:32:12Hmm...

0:32:15 > 0:32:17I was so happy this morning.

0:32:20 > 0:32:22Didn't even make the day.

0:32:41 > 0:32:43- You can go home.- Just in case.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49And that's supposed to make me feel better?

0:32:49 > 0:32:51Good night, sir.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53Good night.

0:33:10 > 0:33:15# That there

0:34:14 > 0:34:19# This isn't happening

0:34:23 > 0:34:29# I'm not here

0:34:33 > 0:34:37# I'm not here

0:39:18 > 0:39:20Interesting.

0:39:22 > 0:39:23It's OK. It's OK. It's OK, it's OK.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25Can I get you something to drink?

0:39:25 > 0:39:27Go away. NESSA SOBS

0:39:30 > 0:39:32- EMOTIONAL:- I can't do this.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36- I can't...- Yes, you can.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41We're strong, you and I.

0:39:41 > 0:39:42What if they find out?

0:39:42 > 0:39:44- They won't.- They might...

0:39:44 > 0:39:47They will never find out. I promise.

0:39:47 > 0:39:50Never. Never.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59It's OK. It's OK.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08I wanted to celebrate.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12Everything will be fine.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14Nessa.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16OK? Trust me. Trust me.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19OK? OK?

0:40:19 > 0:40:20OK?

0:40:22 > 0:40:27The Israeli government has had no hand in this.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Yes, Judah, I understand.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38From what I hear, it was a suicide.

0:40:40 > 0:40:41Because of the note.

0:40:41 > 0:40:43Is what I hear.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48They found fingerprints on the letter.

0:40:50 > 0:40:51Is what I hear.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55But not on the envelope, Judah.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02And yet that's where we found the letter...

0:41:05 > 0:41:07..inside the envelope.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12Now how is that possible?

0:41:15 > 0:41:19The last time I saw that trick, it was David Nixon and Ali Baba.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23I don't know them.

0:41:28 > 0:41:30It wasn't us.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34- The Mossad?- No.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36- Kidron?- No.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39Was he on your graph?

0:41:51 > 0:41:53I'm about to be retired.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57- Oh?- Hmm.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00So this will probably be my last case.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05And like every good spy, when I leave a case...

0:42:07 > 0:42:08..I like to leave it...

0:42:12 > 0:42:13..empty.

0:42:30 > 0:42:31Are you all right?

0:42:34 > 0:42:36She needed to see me.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38She OK?

0:42:38 > 0:42:39She'll be fine.

0:42:41 > 0:42:42What's wrong?

0:42:44 > 0:42:46She'll be fine, Ephra...

0:42:48 > 0:42:49Trust me.

0:46:38 > 0:46:40We think the Israelis killed him.

0:46:40 > 0:46:43And who is it exactly that's thinking that?

0:46:43 > 0:46:47The entire Palestinian Authority or just you?

0:46:47 > 0:46:50I speak on behalf of my country, Baroness Stein,

0:46:50 > 0:46:52for whom Samir Meshal has become a martyr.

0:46:55 > 0:46:57We don't know that.

0:46:57 > 0:47:02They don't want you to choose a Palestinian. They want an Israeli.

0:47:02 > 0:47:05It doesn't matter what anyone wants, Mr Muraji.

0:47:05 > 0:47:08We want you to choose a Palestinian.

0:47:08 > 0:47:14I will choose whoever best protects the aims and ideals of this company

0:47:14 > 0:47:18and nothing you or anyone else wants will affect that decision.

0:47:19 > 0:47:21You cannot choose an Israeli...

0:47:21 > 0:47:23not after this.

0:47:24 > 0:47:25I'll choose exactly who I want.

0:47:27 > 0:47:29Then you will have made a mistake.

0:47:31 > 0:47:33And if I do, at least it will be mine.

0:47:46 > 0:47:49(Don't be afraid, hmm?)

0:47:49 > 0:47:52(Everything is going to be all right.)

0:47:52 > 0:47:53(OK?)

0:47:53 > 0:47:56It's going to be more than that, it'll be great.

0:48:19 > 0:48:22CROWD CHANTS ANGRILY

0:48:27 > 0:48:31So once we're inside, we've agreed to a short interview about

0:48:31 > 0:48:33the academy and what we're trying to do in Ramallah, but obviously

0:48:33 > 0:48:37they'll probably want a comment on whatever's going on outside.

0:48:37 > 0:48:38I don't want to be drawn.

0:48:38 > 0:48:41Then don't be. The message is music.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45So it's, erm, it's vocal but contained.

0:48:45 > 0:48:47You're set up to go in the main entrance,

0:48:47 > 0:48:49- but there is an alternative. - Which is?

0:48:49 > 0:48:52The rear loading bay. It's an easy drive in.

0:48:52 > 0:48:54No. Main entrance.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56It's meant to be a celebration, not a run for a bunker.

0:48:56 > 0:48:59All right, straight in, OK?

0:49:26 > 0:49:29Do you know what? Can I say...?

0:49:29 > 0:49:32I don't pretend to have an all-encompassing solution,

0:49:32 > 0:49:36clearly we don't, but with what we're trying to do here,

0:49:36 > 0:49:39at least we're no longer part of the problem.

0:49:46 > 0:49:48- You all right?- Yeah.

0:49:48 > 0:49:50- Hey.- Hi.

0:49:59 > 0:50:01Where's Atika?

0:50:01 > 0:50:03Well, she thought it best if she stayed at home as well, it's fine.

0:50:03 > 0:50:05It's fine, it's fine.

0:50:05 > 0:50:07I'm quite capable of looking after my own kids...

0:50:07 > 0:50:10- aren't I?- Are you OK?

0:50:10 > 0:50:11They need you backstage.

0:50:11 > 0:50:13Who's looking after them?

0:50:13 > 0:50:15- This gentleman's going take us in. - Are you cleared?

0:50:15 > 0:50:17Yes, of course he's cleared.

0:50:17 > 0:50:21- Are you cleared? Is he cleared? - Yeah, he's cleared, it's fine.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23- Come on, glasses, drink up. - It's fine.
