0:00:05 > 0:00:11And one young woman in particular has the caught the eye of a certain leading man, actor Adam Le Ray.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14You said marry her and everything will be all right.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16- Now she's dead.- Get him out!
0:00:16 > 0:00:19She wanted me to help her.
0:00:19 > 0:00:20And did you?
0:00:20 > 0:00:24There is such purpose in taking one's own life, isn't there?
0:00:24 > 0:00:26She didn't kill herself. She was killed.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32He starts a new job tomorrow at the railway station...
0:00:32 > 0:00:34You are a natural front man, Hector.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37I'm only as good as the team around me.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Darling! There you are!
0:00:45 > 0:00:47- That's your..?- Wife.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51She told you? I knew she'd tell you.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54You're her best friend. It just happened.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58Darrell left this the night he was killed at a newspaper kiosk.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01"He knows. Revert to Bright Stone."
0:01:03 > 0:01:04What are you doing?
0:01:04 > 0:01:07You never told me any of this. This conversation hasn't happened.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11You must tell Mr Lyon to stop investigating the Elms story.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13There is not a Soviet agent on my team.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15'I will not have my team watched.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17'Everyone is watched some time or other during their career.'

0:02:06 > 0:02:10'No, no, please, I am curious that Eden calls the intervention in Suez
0:02:10 > 0:02:13'a police action, but with a ground invasion imminent,

0:02:52 > 0:02:57- Sorry, already eaten.- Hector. You haven't even got it on!
0:02:57 > 0:02:59- We lost track of the time. - Open it.- Fine.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- It's French.- I can see that.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06- Is stew all right? It's not very warm.- Marvellous.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Mm!
0:03:11 > 0:03:14- Oh, your nose is freezing. - I swear it's colder in Belgravia.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16- Colder than Clapham?- Yes.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19I spent the last four hours waiting outside the Elms' mansion block.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20He's on!
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Cheers!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Do you mind?

0:04:49 > 0:04:51Eden was certainly resolute.
0:04:51 > 0:04:56They have to let the opposition respond. We can't call ourselves a public television service
0:04:56 > 0:05:00and not let the opposition, Gaitskell, bat back.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Oh, brilliant, we'll have McCain on our backs again.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07I don't know. He's gone pretty quiet. We normally have a call or one of his visits.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10It's been three days. In less than 72 hours we go out.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Why's he not hovering to see how we'll sell it?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14If we CAN sell it with their fortnightly gag.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- There are ways around these things. - Are there?
0:05:17 > 0:05:21I have been lying awake for the last three nights trying to come up with one.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24We can't debate, we can't comment, we can't analyse,
0:05:24 > 0:05:27we can only deliver the most basic facts
0:05:27 > 0:05:30until two weeks after they've discussed it in Parliament.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- It makes a mockery of what we do. - So we make a mockery of it.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38We present the facts in a way that points to the truth.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44We garner opinion from abroad. What? Comment and assessment from our American cousins
0:05:44 > 0:05:47in the light of Eisenhower's election campaign.
0:05:47 > 0:05:52- They can't stop us broadcasting the views of foreign nationals. - You're brilliant.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Why should we be gagged when the newspapers can print what they like?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- Where did you get this? - I cannot divulge my sources.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Suffice to say, that runs as a leader in tomorrow's Observer.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12"We wish to make an apology. We had not realised the Government was capable..."
0:06:12 > 0:06:15"..of such folly and of such crookedness."
0:06:17 > 0:06:18Hector...
0:06:19 > 0:06:22..you have the country in your palm.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25They'll listen to you, to us.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28We show the public what the world thinks
0:06:28 > 0:06:30and we affirm what they already know.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35The rumours are out there, the press are talking of collusion, that this is a rushed war,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38secretly orchestrated by Britain and France
0:06:38 > 0:06:40with the help of Israel, to get the canal back.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43And we overlook that there's no proof whatsoever of collusion?
0:06:43 > 0:06:46We can't just assume that our government's guilty.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Hardly impartial journalism. You'll bring the show down.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52- McCain'd have a heart attack.- And?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Go easy because McCain's cage is a little rattled?!
0:06:55 > 0:06:59We get out on the streets, tomorrow.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02We canvass opinion from people at the rally and fire the debate.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Let me go.- Where?
0:07:04 > 0:07:08Tomorrow, to the demonstration. Keep you in line.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12You don't mind slumming it on the streets with a microphone?
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Sound judgment is required on occasions like this.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19One must be light on one's feet and mercurial of mind, ready to adapt to any situation.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Tomorrow's the 4th. We go out on the 6th.
0:07:24 > 0:07:25Well, it's a date.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31Hell, last bus. Shall I kip on the sofa?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Goodbye.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39Night then!
0:07:45 > 0:07:48MUFFLED CHATTING AND GIGGLING
0:08:00 > 0:08:01What?
0:08:05 > 0:08:08I'm one of the last women to tolerate him.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13It's not that.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- You're different with him. - Different? How?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18How you should be.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24How I think you are, when you're not being head girl, news chief.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Or irresistible woman.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- Don't be silly.- Am I being?
0:08:35 > 0:08:39PHONE RINGS
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Hello?
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Er, yes?
0:08:52 > 0:08:53Clarence...
0:08:53 > 0:08:54Yes.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19I wasn't sure if you'd still be up. Hector.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23Oh, we were going over the outline of the show with Freddie.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Well, you may as well join us now you're here.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32If Gaitskell insists on responding to the Prime Minister's broadcast tomorrow,
0:09:32 > 0:09:34it will only fuel the flames.
0:09:34 > 0:09:40You are asking the BBC to waive its policy of impartiality?
0:09:40 > 0:09:43It is the duty of the BBC to offer the opposition the chance
0:09:43 > 0:09:47to reply to a ministerial broadcast if it is deemed controversial.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50It will be neither useful nor reassuring to the public.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53We expect The Hour to... redress the balance somewhat.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- And present the Government's view. - Miss Rowley, that's not helpful.
0:10:00 > 0:10:05The Government's actions are not universally supported,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07that's your problem?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09If your programme fails to fall into line,
0:10:09 > 0:10:12it will comfort the enemy and undermine our country at war.
0:10:15 > 0:10:20Angus, the BBC would NEVER jeopardise the security of our nation.
0:10:21 > 0:10:27We are experienced in news management in times of peace AND war.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30I'm obliged to tell you that there may be...funding implications.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Are you threatening us?- Clarence.
0:10:33 > 0:10:38Always advice, Douglas, always advice.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Never to be taken as prescriptive.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56- Let me talk to him. - He doesn't talk. He dictates.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Angus. Angus!
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- You look like you haven't slept for a week.- I hear the same.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10I hope you sleep better tonight.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13You were two a penny at my school.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Four a penny during the war.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20Little men, desperately trying to make themselves bigger.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24A little quieter, Hector. Or do you wish the whole world to know
0:11:24 > 0:11:27that you have your producer's ear?
0:11:27 > 0:11:29These are testing times for us all.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34The mark of a man is how he conducts himself in these times.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Does Wallace know how you're conducting yourself?
0:11:37 > 0:11:41You may not be fearful for yourself but it would be such a pity
0:11:41 > 0:11:44if Miss Rowley found her career blighted
0:11:44 > 0:11:46by mere temptations of the flesh.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50And she seems such a dear girl.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Dad?
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Dad...?
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Yes, same look in his eyes.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44Visitor.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46What's happened?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Oh, it was like this when I arrived.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Dad? Are you all right?
0:12:51 > 0:12:55He was looking for something, apparently.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58You've paid me so many visits recently,
0:12:58 > 0:13:01I thought I should return the call.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03We were just catching up on old times, weren't we?
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- Go to bed, Dad.- Bed?- Yes.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11I'll be through in five minutes.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25My goodness. What a room.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31So many of one's most treasured things.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Your father seems well.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43He was remembering a tea party that we had,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46when he came down to visit you once.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Ruthie had one of her awful nosebleeds.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52The doctor said it was her nerves.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Stop coming to our house.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Stop loitering on the pavement.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Stop bothering us.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08You're defiling our memory of Ruth.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12And stop with these persistent phone calls to myself and my husband.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14You will leave this alone, Frederick.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18Oh, good, it is him who answers the telephone. I'm never sure.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20The silence at the other end of the line
0:14:20 > 0:14:22when I ask why his wife is lying to me.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30- You don't know who you're dealing with.- Yes, I do.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33They're outside now, sitting in their car.
0:14:33 > 0:14:38Apparently, they're convinced I'm a Soviet agent. Which I'm not, by the way...
0:14:38 > 0:14:41if you're at all concerned.
0:14:41 > 0:14:47As someone who once...knew you, I am imploring you to leave it.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Just leave us alone in our grief.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Grief?!
0:14:52 > 0:14:54This isn't grief. This is shameful denial.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59I will never let this go. Ruth came to me to ask me to help her.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02I won't stop helping her until the truth is known.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05She knew something, something that was terrifying,
0:15:05 > 0:15:08something that threatened those who wanted her dead.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Oh, you're terrified.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26How brave you are.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34We're not all as brave as you, Frederick.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50PHONE RINGS
0:15:58 > 0:15:59Hello?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Why did she come to me?
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Why did Ruth come to me?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Because you're tenacious.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11'Because you care more about the truth'
0:16:11 > 0:16:14than you do about your own safety.
0:16:14 > 0:16:19'Because if I was scared for my life, I would run to you.'
0:16:23 > 0:16:26And...trust that you would know the answer.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Because there's no-one else like you, Freddie.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Who is he? Who is Bright Stone?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Freddie.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41- Is it me?- This is why you shouldn't drink bad wine.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Why else are they following me?
0:16:45 > 0:16:46'Because you're an irritant.'
0:16:46 > 0:16:48SHE SIGHS
0:16:48 > 0:16:52You obviously know something, even if you don't know what it is.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55- <- You get under people's skin.
0:16:59 > 0:17:00Are you still there?
0:17:01 > 0:17:02Yes.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06They're scared.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08'McCain, Eden...
0:17:10 > 0:17:11'They're petrified.'
0:17:13 > 0:17:15'They should be.'
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Douglas called me in tonight. With McCain.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23He's worried.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27- We're getting to them, Bel. - I'm putting the phone down.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- 'Not yet!'- Go to sleep.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42McCain knows...
0:17:42 > 0:17:44about us.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48We have to play it carefully now, Bel.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55- I don't know what you mean. - He will use it against us.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Don't be naive.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sorry.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Not tonight.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Dad?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21I never wanted you to go there.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26But your mother thought it would be safer.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32I always thought a little piece of you never came back.
0:18:35 > 0:18:39I packed your case. I found your bathers.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16CHANTING AND SHOUTING
0:19:19 > 0:19:25'..about the situation into which we have been thrust.'
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Here, here.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Get it, Isaac, get it.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- Where shall I stand? - To the left. Here.
0:19:41 > 0:19:46We're standing in a side street by Trafalgar Square.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49You can see the crowds behind me, holding up their placards.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Bevan's words have united the people as they march
0:19:53 > 0:19:56towards Downing Street. You can hear the crowd chanting,
0:19:56 > 0:19:59"One, two, three, four, we won't fight in Eden's war,"
0:19:59 > 0:20:03- as they snake their way along from every corner...- Hector.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06You need to come down here! We need to talk to more people!
0:20:06 > 0:20:10It's a waste of time canvassing opinion if it can't be broadcast!
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Nothing's ever wasted, Hector. Come on!
0:20:13 > 0:20:15- Isaac!- One more minute!
0:20:15 > 0:20:17OK.
0:20:30 > 0:20:31What's so funny?
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Isaac's asked me to look over his sketches.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37They're ever so funny. He wants me to proof them.
0:20:37 > 0:20:38Is that what he calls it?
0:20:38 > 0:20:41- Nah, he's not my type. - Sadly, I think you're his.
0:20:41 > 0:20:42Really?
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Ah, Bel, Freddie in?
0:20:47 > 0:20:51Oh, he just asked me to do something for him.
0:20:51 > 0:20:52What?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Oh, nothing. It can wait.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59Has he taken you to the cinema yet?
0:20:59 > 0:21:01French? I bet French.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05You know he doesn't speak a word? Infuriating.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07I can only apologise, because I, more than anyone,
0:21:07 > 0:21:11know how irritating a trip to the cinema with Freddie can be.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13But perhaps you don't feel that way?
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Feel what way?
0:21:17 > 0:21:19About Freddie?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22About how infuriatingly irritating he is.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25There's a fine line between fury and desire, I tend to find.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32I've never seen a film with Freddie in my life, nor do I intend to.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33Can't stand the cinema.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37The darkness, the sense one has of being trapped.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Now, a little fun...
0:21:39 > 0:21:41Freddie is most certainly that.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44But what did he ask you to do for him?
0:21:44 > 0:21:48Oh, he wanted some information on Peter Darrall.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51It's nothing, darling. His heart is still with you.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53We're just friends.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Of course.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56I had a friend once.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Treated him like a dog.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Adorable man, absolutely useless at seduction.
0:22:01 > 0:22:06Then he married someone else and I realised it wasn't him that was useless, it was me.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11My man in Cairo managed to smuggle out these memos
0:22:11 > 0:22:14before British Embassy staff got to them.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16They've been burning documents all weekend.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19LAUGHTER
0:22:26 > 0:22:28SHOUTING
0:22:31 > 0:22:36It's getting rather heated. There are people running everywhere.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39The sense of anger today is overwhelming.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42There are police on horseback,
0:22:42 > 0:22:44desperately trying to control the fray.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48Keep the heart out and head focused. Don't queer the pitch with your emotion.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50This from a man who can't drink a cup of tea
0:22:50 > 0:22:54without worrying about the oppression of tea leaf pickers in Ceylon(!)
0:22:57 > 0:22:59SHOUTS
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Freddie, we should get out of here.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05We've got to get further in, Hector. Come on!
0:23:05 > 0:23:06Isaac, come on. Over here.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10I can't keep it straight. I need to find somewhere and stay there!
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I need this microphone.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14HORSE WHICKERS
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I don't know what time they'll be back.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27It's utter mayhem out there. Bedlam all the way down the Strand.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28The world has gone quite mad.
0:23:28 > 0:23:29I hope they'll be all right.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33Oh, I never worry. Hector can always look after himself.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Your poor wife, Mr Fendley. Doesn't she miss you, working all the time?
0:23:38 > 0:23:42She is very accommodating. Marry the man and you marry the job.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Yes, well, isn't that so true.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46I'm gasping for a cup of tea.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Yes, of course! Perhaps you would, Bel?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Of course. If you go through to my office...
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Yes, it's quite all right. I do know the way, thank you.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58No excuses.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01I have more pressing matters on my mind.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04Just get her a cup of tea and be nice.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08'You're all right.'
0:24:08 > 0:24:11We're getting you help.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Just grip my hand. What's your name?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Harry.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Harry. Keep talking to me, Harry.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Here you are, have some of this.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23We have to get him to the road. The ambulance can't get through.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33This is just one of many protesters injured today.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36A day of peaceful protest soured by violence.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39This is Frederick Lyon, reporting for The Hour, in London.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41DOOR SLAMS
0:24:41 > 0:24:43You're very lucky.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46I have a very small corner in my living room
0:24:46 > 0:24:48to do all my thank you cards and letters.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Um, if you'd care to leave a message,
0:24:50 > 0:24:54I can ask Hector to telephone you when he comes back.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02I don't usually come into town if I can help it.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05It's very odd, me being here today.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Puts one's whole week out.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Well, there's always the country at the weekend.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11Yes.
0:25:13 > 0:25:18Monday's my art class. I'm absolutely hopeless.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Last week, we painted a gentleman in the nude.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Wednesday, Thursday's Bridge.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26I'm in a club, I'm actually rather good.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29And Friday's the country.
0:25:29 > 0:25:30Except if Hector has to work
0:25:30 > 0:25:32and he has...had to work a lot.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35Yes.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38This whole week, in fact, he's not been home.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47I say, "Hector, they should pay you more."
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Daddy thinks, well, knows
0:25:51 > 0:25:54that Hector won't be staying in the BBC for ever.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Daddy says there's a lot of interest around Hector and The Hour.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03And that's good. That's what I want. It's very, very good.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06If you'll just excuse me a moment...
0:26:06 > 0:26:08At least you're not his secretary.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16You see, I knew you were an intelligent woman.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18I knew that I wouldn't have to say much.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Normally, it's with one of those silly little girls...
0:26:23 > 0:26:27..I'm just glad that with a clever women like you...
0:26:27 > 0:26:29you do fully understand.
0:26:36 > 0:26:37He just can't control himself.
0:26:51 > 0:26:52I think it's the creative in him.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Picasso has a heap of lovers.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00Not that I'm putting Hector on a par with an artiste like that...
0:27:02 > 0:27:05..but there is always someone.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11And normally I have to unpick their little fingers from his arm.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18But it is such a relief to finally meet a proper woman.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23I do like you very much.
0:27:26 > 0:27:27You're such fun.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34He's always just on loan.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36And he always comes back.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41Do you love him at all?
0:27:42 > 0:27:45I love him.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Warts and all. That's me. That's what I do.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54I don't matter.
0:27:57 > 0:28:03And whatever you see of Hector, I know who he really is.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04Do you?
0:28:04 > 0:28:08- Would you like me to call you a taxi?- No, thank you.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Do tell Hector I called by.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49KNOCKING ON DOOR
0:28:49 > 0:28:50Yes. Come in.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57- Are they back yet?- Not yet. Clarence...
0:28:57 > 0:28:59I can't believe you've been so stupid.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10- I can't explain. - Bad luck. I want you to.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13I want you to explain to me
0:29:13 > 0:29:17why you're throwing away your career for an affair that means nothing,
0:29:17 > 0:29:20that will not last beyond this news story, Bel.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24And if you're telling yourself anything other, then you're lying.
0:29:25 > 0:29:30So explain, because in five minutes I will receive a concerned call from Douglas.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33I will defend your actions, reassure him you have come to your senses.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36- I'm not a child. - No, you are NOT!
0:29:36 > 0:29:40YOU are producer of THIS programme - a programme that is already under pressure.
0:29:40 > 0:29:45Can you imagine how McCain will use this against us? Against you? Against Hector?
0:29:45 > 0:29:49It is inappropriate. It is unprofessional. And it MUST end.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52I will defend your right to make this programme however you want.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55But I CANNOT defend someone who has sold herself so short.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58So fix it. Fix it now.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14So is that how you got your second medal? Saving lives.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16No. I got my first medal saving lives.
0:30:16 > 0:30:20The second one was for an act of heroism which we need not dwell upon.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23You're God's cruel joke.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27Sent to throw horrible relief on all our personal inadequacies.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29It's only what anyone would have done.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32I would possibly have given him an aspirin if pushed.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37We open with the image of thousands amassing in Trafalgar Square.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39Why not? Newsreels will have run it.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42A peaceful protest or attempt to control the masses?
0:30:42 > 0:30:44Or something less leading. Then an interview with...
0:30:44 > 0:30:47Someone who matters. Someone with a voice.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50- Eden!- Macmillan!- Calm down.
0:30:52 > 0:30:55- Yes, we show the protest. We cover Bevan's speech.- You weren't there.
0:30:55 > 0:31:00I'll look at the footage and decide what to do from there. But I am serious.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03We need to find a way of addressing the suspicion of collusion
0:31:03 > 0:31:05between Britain and France and Israel.
0:31:05 > 0:31:10- Like in a sketch? - What kind of sketch?- Satire.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12This is a news show. It's not vaudeville.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15A satirical sketch. Why not? It works on the radio.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17I'd like to see McCain's face.
0:31:17 > 0:31:21It gets us around the fortnightly gag, doesn't it?
0:31:21 > 0:31:23- It could be disastrous.- Or daring.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26- It makes me nervous. - Always a good reason to do it.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33- Keep it simple.- Really? - I want it by the end of the day.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37- You can't run it.- We'll see. - Are you mad?
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Report the demonstration, yes, but you can't...
0:31:40 > 0:31:43The Russians have taken Budapest.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45Hundreds of tanks. It's all over the radio.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48Nagy himself making an appeal to the West to intervene.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50And we're too busy with the Suez.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Damn.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58I've got something for you.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02I'm going, I'm going.
0:32:08 > 0:32:13A memo from Tom Kish about Peter Darrall in May this year.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18They were both in Egypt, on secondment from MI6.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20McCain was copied in.
0:32:22 > 0:32:26They were meant to be there specifically to dig up dirt on Colonel Nasser.
0:32:26 > 0:32:30But it looks like that there were already questions about Peter Darrall.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32He'd clearly turned.
0:32:32 > 0:32:37They allude to him passing secrets between Egypt and the Soviets.
0:32:37 > 0:32:42Reading between the lines, poor Kish is clearly frantic.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45Why the hell was Tom Kish reporting to McCain?
0:32:45 > 0:32:50He was reporting to a lot of people. He's just one of several names on the memo.
0:32:53 > 0:32:58- You all right?- Why can you never get hold of the British Embassy in Moscow when you need them?
0:33:04 > 0:33:06Marnie came by today.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09She said it was a nightmare getting in.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12She knows?
0:33:14 > 0:33:16It was quietly humiliating.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Apparently you've done this kind of thing before.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20- KNOCKING - There's a call for you from...
0:33:20 > 0:33:23Take a message. I WILL call them back.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26Clarence has warned me that it has to end.
0:33:26 > 0:33:32- It's not up to bloody Clarence. - We're in a ridiculously precarious situation, Hector.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Wallace is on the BBC board.
0:33:35 > 0:33:39He has friends in high places. He's friends with McCain.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Christ's sake, you're friends with McCain.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44Angus McCain is not a friend of mine. You know that damn well.
0:33:44 > 0:33:48But it's foolish to make enemies of people close to Government. Your words, Bel.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51I never thought your ambition would compromise your integrity.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54It hasn't. It doesn't.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Look, we can't talk here. I'll come to yours tonight.
0:34:01 > 0:34:06- I want to watch the Gaitskell broadcast. - Let's watch it together.- No!
0:34:06 > 0:34:08Verda needs a bed.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12- Oh.- And you should go home to yours.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16Hector, just the man I'm looking for.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23Sissy, put that call through.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26You have to call McCain.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- Take him out for a drink, butter him up.- Do I?- Yes.
0:34:38 > 0:34:39Crikey.
0:34:39 > 0:34:43He knew. About Peter Darrall. He was in on whatever was going on.
0:34:43 > 0:34:44You want me to find out.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47Get him plastered if you have to. He talks to you.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51Have you been talking to Bel?
0:34:51 > 0:34:53You seem friendly enough.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55I tolerate him. It doesn't mean we talk.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59- Someone is on edge. - I'm not on edge!
0:35:08 > 0:35:10You heard the news from Budapest.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Bloody tragedy, and we're ignoring it because we're lost in our own mess.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15He'll have to call a ceasefire.
0:35:15 > 0:35:17The pound is spiralling down, out of control.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20Even his own cabinet are voicing their concerns.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24- We can't afford a war. - We are strapped into our seats unable to truly get up and shout.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26They can't shut us down, Clarence. Douglas is...
0:35:26 > 0:35:29Is our ally. But Douglas is only one man,
0:35:29 > 0:35:32and this corporation is a machine of many cogs and wheels.
0:35:32 > 0:35:37There are still those inside as well as out under pressure to support Eden in this campaign.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39That doesn't mean we buckle.
0:35:39 > 0:35:43For Christ's sake, Freddie, I've waited my entire life to run a programme like this.
0:35:43 > 0:35:48It's not going to be snatched away from me now.
0:35:48 > 0:35:52You have several opportunities still ahead of you.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57But this...
0:35:57 > 0:35:58This is it.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03There is not another Hour for me.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09And now I'm late, and Edith will be furious because dinner will be spoilt.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14You're right. Doesn't mean we buckle.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16Clarence?
0:36:18 > 0:36:21They're still following me.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24- Still pursuing the Elms story? - Yes.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Then you must get quicker on your feet.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44Put me through to Whitehall 2995, please.
0:36:44 > 0:36:45Thank you.
0:36:50 > 0:36:51Thank you. Angus McCain.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57Oh! Sissy, would you read this?
0:36:57 > 0:37:01- Miss Rowley wants it any minute. - I'm very busy, Isaac.- Please.
0:37:01 > 0:37:05- It's just the bare bones. - I don't get it.
0:37:05 > 0:37:09- It's too complicated?- Get what? - Isaac's written a sketch.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Hand it over. Immediately.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15It's not ready yet!
0:37:17 > 0:37:19- It needs to be balanced.- Yes.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22We're not looking to lynch anyone, just to stir debate.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25And he does cartoons. Does it work?
0:37:25 > 0:37:28I think it does.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31A sketch on Suez? They'll pull the plug on us.
0:37:31 > 0:37:34What for? I'd rather debate a question without settling it
0:37:34 > 0:37:36than settle a question with no debate.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39I've got McCain.
0:37:39 > 0:37:40One hour. Executive bar.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42- Shall I come?- No.- No.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- Anyone for a drink?- No, thanks.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54Looks like it's just you and me, then.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Something like that.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00- Isaac, want me to type it up? - Would you?
0:38:00 > 0:38:03- My handwriting's pretty illegible. - It's characterful.
0:38:03 > 0:38:08- And after we could go and... - Oh, he's here. I told him to wait outside.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12- Oh, sorry, Isaac, go and...?- Nothing.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- Mind if I type it up tomorrow? - Of course.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23How tall do you reckon he is?
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Five foot nine? Ten?
0:38:41 > 0:38:45- Did you take those?- Yes.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49Don't you miss it?
0:38:49 > 0:38:51Yes.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55And you wouldn't go back?
0:38:55 > 0:38:58Report overseas again. Take photos again.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01Too old, too slow and... huh.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08That one...was taken just outside of Madrid.
0:39:10 > 0:39:14They were one of the last to surrender in '39.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17She was running away from her house. Leaving everything.
0:39:17 > 0:39:21A row of men were being executed just behind that door.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25Amongst them her husband.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30She...she didn't look back.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34I was irritated because I had my camera in my hand
0:39:34 > 0:39:37and I couldn't find another film.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39They were being shot one by one,
0:39:39 > 0:39:43and all I could think was, "I've got no bloody film."
0:39:45 > 0:39:48I'm still proud I got it. You've got to grab it while you can.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56No, I've reached my limit.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35You've got glasses.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37Yes.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40- You didn't tell me. - Well, I don't tell you everything.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Yes, you do.
0:40:44 > 0:40:45Are you all right?
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Absolutely.
0:41:03 > 0:41:05What's wrong?
0:41:05 > 0:41:09It's my father who's been messing up the house,
0:41:09 > 0:41:11making it look like it's been burgled.
0:41:13 > 0:41:14Why?
0:41:14 > 0:41:17He's always trying to find something.
0:41:17 > 0:41:18That sounds familiar.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22TELEPHONE RINGS
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Hello?
0:41:26 > 0:41:28Hello?
0:41:30 > 0:41:32Is that you?
0:41:34 > 0:41:36'Lord Elms?
0:41:37 > 0:41:39'Lord Elms?'
0:41:49 > 0:41:54- 'Hello, operator.'- Operator, from where was that last call placed?
0:41:54 > 0:41:57'Framlingham 2355, sir.'
0:41:57 > 0:41:58Thank you.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02Guess who just...
0:42:14 > 0:42:15Good evening, sir.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17- Glengoyne, please.- Certainly.
0:42:27 > 0:42:28Same?
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Corner table, please.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47Can't stay long.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51They want us all back after Gaitskell's broadcast.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Well, THEY will have to wait.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Oh, Hector, that's not like you.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59Whatever you think you have on me, I have something more on you, Angus.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Thank you very much, thank you.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06Mm-hm. And what might that be, dear boy?
0:43:06 > 0:43:09Your relationship with Adam Le Ray.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16Hector...
0:43:16 > 0:43:19I'm not interested in the details of your private life, Angus.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21But other people certainly might be.
0:43:24 > 0:43:27Why did Tom Kish copy you in on a memo
0:43:27 > 0:43:30that was clearly a matter of national security?
0:43:44 > 0:43:46My father was a drinker.
0:43:48 > 0:43:51Gave it up when I was...19.
0:43:51 > 0:43:57He swore he could never remember a word during one of his "episodes".
0:43:59 > 0:44:01Whisky does obscure the memory, doesn't it?
0:44:01 > 0:44:06I won't remember any of this tomorrow.
0:44:06 > 0:44:08Of course.
0:44:22 > 0:44:24May I hold onto it?
0:44:30 > 0:44:34Last spring I was approached by Lord and Lady Elms.
0:44:34 > 0:44:36Our families have been acquainted for years.
0:44:36 > 0:44:40They asked me to...
0:44:40 > 0:44:44allay their concerns their daughter had become "involved".
0:44:44 > 0:44:48- With Peter Darrall? - They knew I had connections at the Foreign Office.
0:44:48 > 0:44:50They asked me to make enquiries.
0:44:50 > 0:44:52I dutifully agreed.
0:44:52 > 0:44:55I had hoped to reassure them.
0:44:57 > 0:45:02Much to my surprise, it was revealed that Darrall worked for MI6,
0:45:02 > 0:45:06and that they clearly had concerns of their own.
0:45:06 > 0:45:13This was verified to me in that memo which I was included in.
0:45:14 > 0:45:17- So you informed Lord and Lady Elms? - I informed them
0:45:17 > 0:45:23their daughter was involved with a very dangerous man, a spy, a traitor.
0:45:23 > 0:45:28They in turn had discovered that she was...in trouble.
0:45:28 > 0:45:31So you introduced the idea of Adam Le Ray.
0:45:35 > 0:45:36She talked to the press.
0:45:38 > 0:45:41No, sorry, she talked to Mr Lyon.
0:45:43 > 0:45:46Whatever lengths had been gone to to protect her,
0:45:46 > 0:45:48- she had now made her own bed.- Oh.
0:45:50 > 0:45:53Miss Elms had been singled out by Darrall.
0:45:53 > 0:45:54By the Soviets.
0:45:55 > 0:46:00The KGB have a list circulating which MI6 managed to intercept.
0:46:00 > 0:46:05On this list are the names of young men and women,
0:46:05 > 0:46:10bright, intelligent, often...connected,
0:46:10 > 0:46:16who might be susceptible, open to betraying their country.
0:46:20 > 0:46:23Apparently they call them their Bright Stones.

0:46:46 > 0:46:49If you're cold, there's an extra blanket.
0:46:49 > 0:46:53Or you can turn the gas on if you wake in the night.
0:47:00 > 0:47:06I used to think the worst possible thing would be to be like you.
0:47:09 > 0:47:11But I could never be like you.
0:47:14 > 0:47:16I can never live so lightly.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20It all matters too much to me.
0:47:26 > 0:47:30It all matters very much to me, sweetheart,
0:47:30 > 0:47:32I just don't let my face show that.
0:47:32 > 0:47:36It's all about how you sell it.
0:47:36 > 0:47:41You have a suitcase and five pounds in a savings account.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43But that very nice lady
0:47:43 > 0:47:47who sold me a cup of tea in that little hovel that you call a cafe on the corner, she doesn't know.
0:47:47 > 0:47:52- Well, what does it matter?- Hmm.
0:47:52 > 0:47:55'..Postal orders and stamps.'
0:48:00 > 0:48:03Why do we have to be married?
0:48:03 > 0:48:04Or not married?
0:48:07 > 0:48:10Why can't we do what the hell we like?
0:48:11 > 0:48:13Men can.
0:48:13 > 0:48:17They can sleep with women without getting a name for themselves, they can have careers...
0:48:17 > 0:48:22Darling, you, YOU have a career.
0:48:22 > 0:48:24You have a career.
0:48:36 > 0:48:40Well, I am going to do exactly what I like and to hell with the rest of them.
0:48:47 > 0:48:48What?
0:48:50 > 0:48:52You're more like me than you know.
0:48:53 > 0:48:57- 'Ladies and gentleman, now follows a broadcast...'- Come on.
0:48:57 > 0:49:01- '..from the Leader of the Labour Party, Mr Hugh Gaitskill.' - Come on.- 'Good Evening.
0:49:01 > 0:49:07'It has been a tragic, terrible week, indeed a tragic and terrible day.
0:49:07 > 0:49:12'How tragic it is that we, by our criminal folly,

0:50:45 > 0:50:46Good. Good.
0:50:50 > 0:50:51Mmm...
0:50:58 > 0:51:01- Did Hector say what time he'd be back?- Er, no.
0:51:01 > 0:51:04Damn!
0:51:14 > 0:51:17Freddie?
0:51:17 > 0:51:19- The code? It said something about... - Bright Stone.
0:51:19 > 0:51:22- Revert to...- Bright Stone! She was a Bright Stone.
0:51:22 > 0:51:26- Who? What? - Ruth Elms was a Bright Stone. - What are you talking about?
0:51:26 > 0:51:30- I'll tell you in the car.- Where are we going?- Well, I don't know. I'd thought you'd know.
0:51:30 > 0:51:34They were in on it. The Elms were in on it.
0:51:34 > 0:51:37- They live in Suffolk.- I'll drive.
0:51:37 > 0:51:39You can't walk in a straight line.
0:51:39 > 0:51:44Does it matter? It's nearly midnight. There will be no-one on the roads. Here...
0:51:46 > 0:51:47Put this on.
0:52:13 > 0:52:17Not yet. Not yet. Wait until I've pulled away.

0:52:54 > 0:52:57We've been here three hours.
0:53:00 > 0:53:03- Just wait until...- They're awake!
0:53:18 > 0:53:21- Good morning, sir.- Are they in? Are Lord and Lady Elms in?
0:53:21 > 0:53:24I wish to speak with Lord Elms, excuse me. Lord Elms?
0:53:26 > 0:53:29Lord Elms! I know!
0:53:29 > 0:53:31I know!
0:53:31 > 0:53:34I know about Tom Kish and Peter Darrall.
0:53:34 > 0:53:37I know that you married your daughter off. I know what you did.
0:53:39 > 0:53:42Good morning, Freddie.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47What I don't understand...
0:53:47 > 0:53:52- Shall we come in here and talk?- What I don't understand is why you came to me if you don't want me to help you?
0:53:52 > 0:53:56- Shall we sit? Thank you.- No. Ruth came to see me because she couldn't talk to you.
0:53:56 > 0:54:00Because she was so frightened. She was frightened and pregnant and you did nothing.
0:54:00 > 0:54:04- You did more than nothing. You married her off.- Don't speak to him!
0:54:06 > 0:54:10Don't say anything to him, Richard.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13She didn't kill herself, admit it! Say it!
0:54:22 > 0:54:25No.
0:54:25 > 0:54:26She didn't.
0:54:28 > 0:54:31Please, Richard? Please?
0:54:31 > 0:54:33We've tried silence, Alice,
0:54:33 > 0:54:36and it doesn't work.
0:54:36 > 0:54:39We've tried doing what they asked
0:54:39 > 0:54:41and it still didn't save her.
0:54:43 > 0:54:45They thought...
0:54:45 > 0:54:50that she was a liability to herself, but the biggest liability to her...
0:54:50 > 0:54:51was US.
0:54:54 > 0:54:56We knew what that threat meant.
0:54:56 > 0:54:59We were trying to save her life.

0:55:23 > 0:55:28- There was a list.- Yes.
0:55:28 > 0:55:30Did you see it?
0:55:30 > 0:55:34The list of Bright Stones?
0:55:34 > 0:55:37Was there anybody else you recognised?
