00:00:00My old man said, follow the band, and don't dilly dally on the way.
00:00:14Off with the band, with the old wagon in it, I follow, don't twist it, don't fall with it.
00:00:24I dilly-da-dally, dally-da-da-dally, I dilly-da-dally, I lost my way and don't go where to go.

00:01:41Mercy, let his conscience guide him.
00:01:56Mercy, let his conscience guide him.

00:07:55Sergeant Cowley involved in personal injury,
00:07:58most serious and most urgent.
00:07:59Squad 501 received, over and over.
00:08:02Hospital, Burks.
00:08:05How is Cowley?
00:08:07Bravo, sir.
00:08:08Where is he?
00:08:09In X-ray.
00:08:11No one lets you talk to him.
00:08:13Oh, yeah.
00:08:16He won't be longer.
00:08:18Well, Dr Richardson, please go to casualty.
00:08:21Dr Richardson, to casualty.
00:08:36Doctor, I'm Detective Inspector Regan.
00:08:38This is one of my boys.
00:08:40How is he?
00:08:41Not good.
00:08:42What do you mean, not good?
00:08:43Keep your voice down.
00:08:45When can I see him?
00:08:46Later.
00:08:47What time later?
00:08:48Later.
00:08:49Look, it's our problem now.
00:08:50Just go away.
00:08:53Doctor, you don't understand.
00:08:54If this man dies, there are 30,000 policemen involved.
00:08:58Well, that's your problem.
00:08:59He's very ill.
00:09:01But what are his chances?
00:09:07He was semi-conscious.
00:09:08God, they only gave me a minute.
00:09:10So?
00:09:11Well, he was rambling.
00:09:13Kept mumbling something about the Mallory lot.
00:09:16Mallory mob.
00:09:17Mallory?
00:09:18George Mallory?
00:09:19Yeah, I think so.
00:09:20Oh, no.
00:09:21He didn't have his nose up the Mallory farm.
00:09:31Governor couldn't understand it about his diary.
00:09:33Carlis?
00:09:34They checked it.
00:09:35He ain't put pen to paper in four days.
00:09:38I don't follow.
00:09:39Nothing.
00:09:40Nothing.
00:09:41Not even expenses?
00:09:43Are you saying he hasn't written a line in four days?
00:09:46Nobody knows what he was doing south of the river last night.
00:09:49What he was up to or who he saw.
00:09:51You got your driver here?
00:09:53No, go.
00:09:54Right, get him.
00:09:58We're going back to the yard.
00:09:59Sure, as soon as there's any news.
00:10:08I don't understand why Carly said Mallory mob.
00:10:11It was over the river.
00:10:12That's Tusser country.
00:10:13Mallory's West End.
00:10:14Yeah, that's what I've all got.
00:10:17Somebody must know what Carly was up to.
00:10:21He must have done some paperwork.
00:10:23Go through his desk again, then check his place.
00:10:25Run, go.
00:10:29You heard about Carly?
00:10:31Yeah. Haskins wants you. Urgent.
00:10:36Give me serious crime squad. Mr. Laker.
00:10:38Laker's in the conference room, Jack.
00:10:42Mallory.
00:10:43Three years back.
00:10:46He'd just bought a chain of garages.
00:10:48Involvement with foreign registered cars.
00:10:51Look out for the man on his left.
00:10:54Albie Tucker.
00:10:56Ex-boxer.
00:10:57A key man.
00:11:01Tusser.
00:11:02He got 18 months last year.
00:11:04And Edward Grenfell.
00:11:06Tusser's draftsman.
00:11:08Picture taken August 68.
00:11:12We haven't seen Grenfell for three months.
00:11:14He's probably working on something.
00:11:17Tusser and Mallory.
00:11:18We understand this is the only time they met.
00:11:21Non-reliable informants states they met to divide certain areas of action in London.
00:11:30Says night ended with Mallory getting very drunk.
00:11:32What the hell are you doing here?
00:11:38This one's down to serious crime squad.
00:11:41We've had one of our young skippers smashed up in Tusser country.
00:11:44Yes, I'm sorry.
00:11:47We've had most of our resources on that Tusser lot since Mallory went off to Spain.
00:11:52And now your lad's blown it.
00:11:55He's badly smashed up.
00:11:58Yes, and that's not all the damage, is it?
00:12:00So let us pick up the pieces.
00:12:02How could Cowley, only six months with us, go through the last four days without writing a line?
00:12:16There's two reasons blokes like Cowley don't fill in their diaries. You know them better than I do.
00:12:20Do I?
00:12:22You get a phone call from a Fulham pup, get down here in ten minutes you'll catch a suspect.
00:12:27You don't have time to find your diary.
00:12:29For four days he writes nothing.
00:12:31So he was on at the Mallory mob.
00:12:33He writes Mallory in his diary, you pull him off.
00:12:36It's a gangbusters case.
00:12:38What do you think he had on Mallory?
00:12:41Stump tip.
00:12:42Whatever it was, they sussed him out.
00:12:44It was your responsibility, you should have known what he was doing down there.
00:12:48I accept that, sir.
00:12:49Now I suppose you want to go crashing in there.
00:12:52See what you can find out.
00:12:54Well, don't!
00:12:55I've already told the gangbusters that we won't interfere.
00:12:57I don't want any more hassle, right?
00:13:05Cowley isn't married, is he?
00:13:06No, lives with his grandmother.
00:13:08Anybody been to see her?
00:13:09Not yet.
00:13:10She does know he's been injured.
00:13:12Go and see her.
00:13:13Tell her everything's all right.
00:13:16You know there are going to be some changes around here.
00:13:18I heard, yeah.
00:13:19There's a meeting at six o'clock in the squad room.
00:13:22Be there.
00:13:24I've got a feeling it's going to clip your wings.
00:13:27Meanwhile, stay away from Tusser and Mallory.
00:13:31They belong to Serious Crime Squad, understood?
00:13:33Hey, Tom.
00:13:34Your bad news, Jack.
00:13:35The worst.
00:13:36Look, Tom.
00:13:37You're off the case.
00:13:38What do you want?
00:13:39My boy's on the danger list.
00:13:40You cornered the market in Mallory and he's the only lead we've got.
00:13:41We're moving on the boy.
00:13:42So?
00:13:43I've already picked up two of Mallory's lot.
00:13:44Like?
00:13:45Chapel and Tick Benton.
00:13:46Oh, shrimp fishing.
00:13:47Look, give us a line.
00:13:48I might have something for you.
00:13:49I just want to know what happened.
00:13:50What harm can that do?
00:13:51Why, Mallory?
00:13:52Every snout in London knows it is in Spain.
00:13:54He won't be back till Tusser's out of jail in two months.
00:13:56What else?
00:13:57For you.
00:13:58For you.
00:13:59For me.
00:14:00For me.
00:14:01For me.
00:14:02For me.
00:14:03For me.
00:14:04For me.
00:14:05For me.
00:14:06For me.
00:14:07For me.
00:14:08For me.
00:14:09For me.
00:14:10Well, give us a line.
00:14:11I might have something for you.
00:14:12I just want to know what happened.
00:14:13What harm can that do?
00:14:14Why, Mallory?
00:14:15Every snout in London knows it is in Spain.
00:14:17He won't be back till Tusser's out of jail in two months.
00:14:18What else?
00:14:19For you.
00:14:20Nothing.
00:14:33For me.
00:14:43Local, Nick?
00:14:44Right.
00:14:45I got through the hospital guard.
00:14:46They just finished operating.
00:14:47How's Cali?
00:14:48They're not saying.
00:14:49What are they saying?
00:14:50Bruises on the head and forehead consistent with a severe fall.
00:14:53Gravel embedded deep in the skull.
00:14:55Traces of mud.
00:14:56What kind of a fall?
00:14:57Like out the window.
00:14:59So, he was around here somewhere.
00:15:02Who's picked up here.
00:15:08Meanwhile, he fell out of a window.
00:15:11I think the doc was suggesting he was pushed.
00:15:14Thanks.
00:15:16Get a torch.
00:15:18Sir.
00:15:19What kind of a guy is Cali?
00:15:22Oh, he's quiet.
00:15:24A little strange lives with his granny.
00:15:26Is he a pup?
00:15:27Nah.
00:15:28Just a bit odd.
00:15:30Cigar rash.
00:15:31That couldn't have been here long.
00:15:44Come here long.
00:15:45Come here.
00:15:46Come here.
00:15:47Go.
00:15:48Oh, leave that to Laker.
00:15:49He must find his way here sooner or later.
00:15:53You want me to get the photographers and fingerprinters?
00:15:55No, that's Laker's job.
00:15:56We're freelancers.
00:15:57We're freelancing here, son.
00:15:58You want me to get the photographers and fingerprinters?
00:16:00No, that's Laker's job.
00:16:02We're freelancing here, son.
00:16:03Look, if you've got a big tip.
00:16:04Something to do with the matter.
00:16:05Look, if you've got a big tip.
00:16:06Something to do with the matter.
00:16:07You want me to get the photographer's and fingerprinters?
00:16:08No, that's Laker's job.
00:16:09We're freelancing here, son.
00:16:10Look, if you've got a big tip, something to do with the matter.
00:16:11If you knew that the gangbusters had a big op on against Mallory, what would you do?
00:16:24I'd inform Mr. Raskins, gov.
00:16:26Would you?
00:16:27If you've got a big tip, something to do with the Mallory firm and you knew that the gangbusters
00:16:32had a big op on against Mallory, what would you do?
00:16:36I'd inform Mr. Raskins, gov.
00:16:39Would you?
00:16:40Would you?
00:16:41I wouldn't go out alone, not against a mob like that.
00:16:44That's what made Cowley different.
00:16:46What?
00:16:47Reckoned he could do it all on his own.
00:16:50Where do we get all these heroes from?
00:16:53Got good teachers, ain't they, Gough?
00:17:03Well, this is Tusser's patch.
00:17:05Do you know South London?
00:17:06I know it. Not like the back of me hands.
00:17:10Bye-bye, Ken.
00:17:12Okay, go.
00:17:21Move, come on, move.
00:17:23Come on, carry that car, come on, move.
00:17:25Come on.
00:17:33Come on, jab.
00:17:35Keep in the middle there, come on.
00:17:37Step away, George, come on.
00:17:39Come on, George, jab away, mate.
00:17:41Now, keep off them ropes, George.
00:17:43Jab, jab, come on, George.
00:17:46Jab away, mate, come on, jab.
00:17:48Jab it out, come on, come on, jab it out.
00:17:52Jab, come on, George, jab it out.
00:17:54Come on, come on, George.
00:17:56Come on, George, jab it away.
00:17:58Come on, Ron, Ron.
00:18:00Come on, give me a chance.
00:18:01I'm sorry about that, Danny.
00:18:02I should flip them with pizza, too.
00:18:03I thought I needed you.
00:18:04Hello.
00:18:05Be careful there, George.
00:18:06Getting a bit rusty.
00:18:07How'd you do that?
00:18:08Come on, look.
00:18:09I'm sorry about that, Danny.
00:18:10I should flip them with pizza, too.
00:18:11I thought I needed you.
00:18:12Oh, look.
00:18:13How'd you do that?
00:18:14Good care less there, George?
00:18:15Okay, what's that, George?
00:18:24Getting a bit rusty.
00:18:27How's division suiting you?
00:18:31That?
00:18:33How's division suiting you?
00:18:35It's all right.
00:18:36Working for Mr. Castle?
00:18:39Yeah, that's right.
00:18:41Yeah, he's a mate. He owes me a few favors.
00:18:45You hear about Sergeant Carley?
00:18:48Yeah, I did hear something. Didn't he get beaten up?
00:18:51Badly.
00:18:53How badly?
00:18:53Very.
00:18:55You know him?
00:18:56No, no, not really.
00:18:58He joined the squad a month before I left.
00:19:00He was on to the Mallory mob.
00:19:03Now listen, you know more about South London than any skipper in the force, George.
00:19:07I need you.
00:19:10I can't leave Mr. Castle.
00:19:12Not even for about two weeks.
00:19:13Now, you know that other villain, Tusser, right?
00:19:16Tusser, like, yeah, I grew up with him.
00:19:18Mallory and Tusser are warring.
00:19:20I think Carley walked in the middle of it.
00:19:22He was worked over then accidentally hit by a car, but he took a big hiding.
00:19:27Now, I need your knowledge, George.
00:19:29If I can square it with Mr. Castle, okay?
00:19:31Look, Mr. Regan, I worked for you for 18 months, right?
00:19:45And now I work for Mr. Castle.
00:19:47The hours are regular and the wife's happy.
00:19:49And I'm up for a promotion.
00:19:50Well, not only that, quite frankly, I didn't like your methods very much.
00:19:57Would it take a lot of courage to say that?
00:20:01No, not really.
00:20:02Now, look, Mary, darling, I'm not trying to start an affair with you.
00:20:05Don't lift a bloody finger for me.
00:20:06I'm not asking for that.
00:20:08But you can help me put these bastards away.
00:20:10They've done one of ours.
00:20:11Okay?
00:20:12Now, just yes or no.
00:20:19Well, if Mr. Castle agrees, then yes.
00:20:24My wife will go spare.
00:20:26Right.
00:20:26I'll be in touch.
00:20:33Hurry up, Annie.
00:20:35Okay, that'll do, love.
00:20:38Hmm, that's fine.
00:20:40Right, turn over.
00:20:42Action.
00:20:48Okay.
00:20:50Legs up, love.
00:20:52Yeah, that's good.
00:20:54Hold that position.
00:20:58Hello, Jack.
00:20:59Hello, Lola.
00:21:01Impeccable timing, as usual.
00:21:03I didn't know they still wore those.
00:21:05Quiet, please.
00:21:12Where is it, then?
00:21:15Shirts.
00:21:16I want my shirts.
00:21:17Did you manage to get them done?
00:21:18Yeah, you'll have to square it with wardrobe, though.
00:21:28I'm breaking in five minutes.
00:21:30You want to buy me lunch?
00:21:31Sorry, love.
00:21:32I'm in a bit of a rush.
00:21:33Well, if that's all that's wanted,
00:21:36I'll go back to work.
00:21:38Well, I haven't got time for anything else.
00:21:41Will I see you tonight?
00:21:42No.
00:21:44Tomorrow night?
00:21:45Definitely.
00:21:46Hmm, one night in nine.
00:21:47Not bad.
00:21:48Who gets you the other eight?
00:21:50Oh, I'm sorry, Annie.
00:21:51I've got a big job on.
00:21:52Is that right?
00:21:53Tell me, Jack,
00:21:54when do you ever have a small job on?
00:21:56Tomorrow night, I promise.
00:21:58Knockout.
00:21:59I'll run home now,
00:22:00get into my negligee,
00:22:01and wait by the window.
00:22:02Promise.
00:22:06Thanks for the shirts, love.
00:22:07Yeah, I reckon it's your relationship
00:22:10with my ironing board
00:22:11that keeps us together.
00:22:12And the rest, love.
00:22:14Tomorrow night.
00:22:17Tomorrow night.
00:22:27Where's your driver, Gov?
00:22:30This is my own car.
00:22:32I've been told to stay off this case.
00:22:36I see.
00:22:39You heard the latest brainwave?
00:22:41No.
00:22:42Flying squad, robbery squad,
00:22:44regional crime squad,
00:22:45all amalgamated in one sprawling mess.
00:22:48There'll be hundreds of little grey men
00:22:50all working on top of each other,
00:22:52pots of tea and committees.
00:22:54I'm one of the best DIs in the squad.
00:22:56You know that.
00:22:57They don't listen to me.
00:22:58They listen to committee men, no?
00:23:03You know, Tusser and Mallory
00:23:04will have to sort it out sooner or later.
00:23:06Even with Tusser in jail,
00:23:09these boys have still tried to host Mallory.
00:23:11She's out in two months, right?
00:23:13Right, yeah.
00:23:16I'll tell you something.
00:23:16That's a Tusser pub.
00:23:22Okay.
00:23:26Used to be a good pub, this.
00:23:32Before he passed out,
00:23:33he said Mallory's mob,
00:23:35Mallory's lot.
00:23:37Question.
00:23:38If this is a Tusser pub,
00:23:39how could Mallory's lot be in here?
00:23:41Two whiskies.
00:23:44Two large whiskies.
00:23:48Remember me?
00:23:50Should I?
00:23:51Well, I used to drink in here with my old man.
00:23:53Carter.
00:23:54He was a docker.
00:23:56Yeah, you short-changed him one night.
00:23:58He put one on you.
00:24:01We want to ask you some questions.
00:24:03Oh, boy, how many more times?
00:24:05What does that mean?
00:24:06Well, the old builder.
00:24:07Only left here an hour ago.
00:24:0976 pence.
00:24:10There are a few of us.
00:24:12What did you tell them?
00:24:13Look, mate,
00:24:13I've got better things to do than myself
00:24:15than stand around here
00:24:16answering the same old questions
00:24:17over and over again for the bloody law.
00:24:19Don't call us bloody law, mate.
00:24:22What did you tell them?
00:24:23Nothing.
00:24:24I don't know nothing.
00:24:2676.
00:24:27I think there was a detective sergeant in here last night.
00:24:30He got beaten up.
00:24:31Not in here, mate.
00:24:32He left.
00:24:33He went.
00:24:34What time?
00:24:34Oh, I don't know.
00:24:35Closing time.
00:24:3611 o'clock.
00:24:36Look,
00:24:37you keep your license
00:24:39if we say you keep it, okay?
00:24:41Yeah, okay.
00:24:43Were any of Tusser's or Mallory's
00:24:45lot in here last night?
00:24:46No one.
00:24:47Sergeant,
00:24:48is there much pimping in here?
00:24:50License infractions?
00:24:53Yeah, I would say so.
00:24:55Are we going to come back here tonight
00:24:56and find one tart
00:24:57that'll lose him his business?
00:25:00Yeah, we might.
00:25:02Everyone knows
00:25:03Tusser's lot drinking here.
00:25:06Names?
00:25:07I don't know their names.
00:25:09Oh, I know they're villains.
00:25:11But I don't ask for their custom
00:25:12and I don't ask questions.
00:25:1576.
00:25:16You ever done Bird?
00:25:17No, I couldn't get a license, could I,
00:25:19if I'd been inside?
00:25:20We do make mistakes, you know.
00:25:22Let's check.
00:25:23May I use your phone?
00:25:31Funny fellow, my governor.
00:25:33He hates publicans.
00:25:37Inspector Regan here, squad.
00:25:40Regan,
00:25:41you get me my office.
00:25:42Ken?
00:25:44I'd like a clearance
00:25:45through CRO and a publican.
00:25:48What's your name?
00:25:50T Maddox.
00:25:52T for what, two?
00:25:54Terry.
00:25:56Terrence Maddox.
00:25:57Terrence Maddox.
00:26:00Yeah, oh, your ex-wife phone,
00:26:01go after she wants to see you urgently.
00:26:02Yeah, and Mr. Haskins
00:26:03wants to talk to you.
00:26:04Well, I don't want to talk
00:26:05to Mr. Haskins.
00:26:06Regan,
00:26:09where the hell are you?
00:26:10I've just finished
00:26:11some lungs, sir.
00:26:15What?
00:26:16The doctors say that
00:26:17medically they can't
00:26:17distinguish between
00:26:18the injuries from
00:26:19the beating up
00:26:19and the injuries
00:26:20from the car accident.
00:26:21Well, they have to.
00:26:22Well, they say they can't.
00:26:36Cowley's dead.
00:26:44The doctors say
00:26:45they can't make a case
00:26:45about which injuries
00:26:46killed him.
00:26:47The beating of the car.
00:26:56Yeah.
00:26:58It means we can't even
00:26:59do the bastards
00:27:00for murder.
00:27:06We're about to form
00:27:18the largest
00:27:19crime-fighting force
00:27:20in Europe.
00:27:21It'll be an amalgamation
00:27:22of all groups,
00:27:23flying squad,
00:27:23robbery squad,
00:27:24regional crime squad.
00:27:25The identities
00:27:26of the three squads
00:27:27will remain.
00:27:28You've seen Regan.
00:27:29All resources,
00:27:30equipment,
00:27:31and intelligence
00:27:32will be pooled
00:27:32and shared.
00:27:34From now on,
00:27:35any top criminal
00:27:36who departs
00:27:37from his normal
00:27:37routine for one second
00:27:39will have 200 men
00:27:40on top of him.
00:27:42In the past,
00:27:43all we've been able
00:27:43to do from time
00:27:45to time is to
00:27:46disorganize major crime.
00:27:48Now we're going
00:27:49to hit it for six.
00:27:51Where's Regan?
00:27:53Well, it's all right.
00:27:54Find him.
00:27:55The only time
00:27:55I really talked to Carl
00:27:56it was a month
00:27:57after he joined.
00:27:59I asked him
00:27:59if he had a girlfriend.
00:28:02Said he had an old
00:28:03girl of 78.
00:28:05His granny.
00:28:05How can I walk
00:28:10in there
00:28:10and tell our lady
00:28:11it's over?
00:28:18Do you want me
00:28:19to come with you?
00:28:22No, it's my job.
00:28:35Mrs. Berry.
00:29:02Yes.
00:29:03My name is Jack Regan.
00:29:05Flying squad.
00:29:05Oh, I, Tom,
00:29:07talked about you.
00:29:08How is he?
00:29:10Can we come in?
00:29:11Yes.
00:29:12What are you doing here,
00:29:13love?
00:29:14It's all right.
00:29:14I asked her to.
00:29:21Have you seen Tom?
00:29:25Is he going...
00:29:25Mrs. Berry.
00:29:26I'm afraid that Tom's dead.
00:29:30Dead?
00:29:30I'll gamble the cat lock.
00:29:38Dead.
00:29:39Tom died in the line
00:29:48of duty.
00:29:52He was a good policeman.
00:29:55We'll get the people
00:29:56who did it.
00:30:00Look, I'm going to leave
00:30:01you my phone number.
00:30:03Now, if there's anything
00:30:04you want,
00:30:05you just ring me
00:30:06and I'll come immediately.
00:30:08Mrs. Jones says
00:30:09she'll stay with you tonight.
00:30:19I'm sorry.
00:30:20I'm very sorry.
00:30:24We'll get him, though.
00:30:34I'm going to leave
00:30:36my telephone number.
00:30:39There'll be somebody down
00:30:40from the yard
00:30:40to make the arrangements.
00:30:42Okay.
00:30:43I've got to go now,
00:30:44but you make sure
00:30:45she's all right.
00:30:46She'll be all right.
00:31:00How's she take it?
00:31:03Do you know something?
00:31:05That old lady's got no reason
00:31:07to go and live in that.
00:31:09Whoever killed Carly
00:31:11killed two people.
00:31:17I rang the yard.
00:31:18Yeah?
00:31:20Apparently, Mr. Lake
00:31:21has been making a lot of waves.
00:31:22Got blokes crawling everywhere.
00:31:24Anything else?
00:31:26Your ex-missive phone.
00:31:28Yeah, I heard.
00:31:31I'll drop you at a bus stop.
00:31:34Get off.
00:31:39Yeah.
00:31:44Yeah.
00:31:44See you next week.
00:31:45I'll stop now.
00:31:47I'll stop.
00:31:50Go on.
00:31:52Hello, Kate.
00:32:15You're late.
00:32:18So what's new about that?
00:32:20I kept Susie up till 7.30.
00:32:23She was so excited she thought she was going to see her dad.
00:32:26Poor kid fell asleep on the couch.
00:32:28I had to put her to bed.
00:32:30Why can't you ever be on time for us?
00:32:32I'm on an important case.
00:32:34There's a young cop.
00:32:35I'm not interested anymore in your silly cases and your stupid criminals.
00:32:50What do you want to tell me?
00:33:03It would be a good idea if you ate regularly and drank less.
00:33:05Have you looked at yourself lately?
00:33:08You look terrible.
00:33:09You're 35 years old and you look 45.
00:33:11What do you want, Kate?
00:33:20I'm thinking of getting married.
00:33:22Peter's coming around later.
00:33:24Who's Peter?
00:33:25Teacher.
00:33:28They don't make much money.
00:33:30He works in a language laboratory, Oxford Street.
00:33:32He's got an income from that and a few hundred quid from a couple of textbooks he's written.
00:33:37Can he support you?
00:33:39No.
00:33:40Not immediately.
00:33:42We calculate in a couple of years.
00:33:44So what's his problem?
00:33:47He's got an ex-wife and two kids.
00:33:49Look, Jack, if you could keep up the mortgage payments on here and Susie's school fees and expenses just for a couple of years.
00:34:01You don't want much, do you?
00:34:06Let me think about it.
00:34:08You need to think about it?
00:34:10Yes, I need to think about it.
00:34:17Get that out of the way.
00:34:19Did you tell him?
00:34:30Yeah.
00:34:32Jack, this is Peter.
00:34:34Peter.
00:34:36Sit down.
00:34:42Scotch?
00:34:43Yes, thank you.
00:34:49Right then.
00:35:01Why do you want to marry Kate?
00:35:04I love her.
00:35:05I want to live with her as man and wife.
00:35:08You did love someone else.
00:35:10Two kids.
00:35:11Both Kate and I are free.
00:35:14It happens to be our decision.
00:35:15But you want me to part finance, sir.
00:35:18Look, will you continue to pay Kate some money for two years at the most until I can straighten myself out?
00:35:24You're pretty blunt, aren't you?
00:35:27I'm simply asking a question.
00:35:29Let me ask you one.
00:35:30Aren't there a lot of young, sexy ladies without children in your part of the world?
00:35:35Swedish girls or Dutch girls?
00:35:37I don't come from Sweden or Holland.
00:35:39I come from Germany.
00:35:40Germany?
00:35:41Yes.
00:35:45Have I said something funny?
00:35:48No.
00:35:49No, no.
00:35:49I've just had a couple of drinks.
00:35:52I don't like crowds.
00:35:55You know, that's quite insulting.
00:35:58Fact.
00:35:58I've never met a German that I've liked.
00:36:03Don't rise to it, Peter.
00:36:04It's hard for him to be confronted with the kind of person he could have been.
00:36:08This?
00:36:09I think you'd better leave.
00:36:11Uh-huh.
00:36:12It requires a sense of responsibility you just don't have to sit down and calmly discuss our and Susie's future.
00:36:19You'll always run away from it.
00:36:21I'm not running away.
00:36:22I am sitting in this house for which I pay 700 pounds a year, listening to a young Adolf who intends to move in rent-free.
00:36:32Well, I'm sorry, but I've got to have time to think about all this.
00:36:36I mean, your love affair may be fun, darling, but it does involve my daughter and my bread.
00:36:42I think I'd better go.
00:36:44Yes, I think you'd better.
00:36:45Don't go.
00:36:51Don't worry.
00:36:52I'll go.
00:36:55I'll be in touch.
00:36:57Don't bother.
00:37:00I'll be in touch.
00:37:19Where to?
00:37:21Fiesta Club.
00:37:21What's there?
00:37:27Colourbird.
00:37:28Miriam Leslie.
00:37:30Where does she connect?
00:37:32Mallory's girlfriend.
00:37:36Some girlfriend with him in Spain and her here.
00:37:39Yeah, that's the way it goes, Gov.
00:37:41When you dropped me off last night, I went round to see a few friends.
00:37:45They said Mallory's a one-girl guy, and this one's been with him ten months.
00:37:51You've been to that club?
00:37:53No, I can't afford it.
00:37:54Not like you skippers.
00:37:56Yeah, that's right.
00:37:57Where did you get the information?
00:37:58Cyclops Goldberg.
00:37:59Cyclops Goldberg.
00:38:00It used to be a snout for me.
00:38:01Yeah, I went round to his place.
00:38:02He was watching telly.
00:38:03Big fight.
00:38:04Did you see it?
00:38:05No.
00:38:06No.
00:38:07It's rubbish.
00:38:08What about the girl?
00:38:0925, Jazz singer.
00:38:10Good class bird, no fool.
00:38:12I'm ready.
00:38:13No.
00:38:14I'm ready.
00:38:15I'm ready.
00:38:16You've got all the time.
00:38:17I'm ready for the girl.
00:38:18What about the girl?
00:38:1925, Jazz singer.
00:38:21Good class bird, no fool.
00:38:26There's a good girl.
00:38:28I'm ready for this.
00:38:29What about the girl?
00:38:3125, Jazz singer.
00:38:33Good class bird, no fool.
00:38:36Oh, dear, look at the state of her.
00:38:46Did you see that?
00:39:06I killed that Cyclops. He said she'd be here this morning.
00:39:36Do you think that's a good idea, sir?
00:39:44What does that mean?
00:39:46Look, we can't get a warrant because I'm not on this case.
00:39:49Understood?
00:39:55Do you think that's a good idea?
00:39:58I think it's a good idea, yes.
00:40:00Because if I don't sort this out in the next 12 hours
00:40:02before they get their Cowley inquiry organized,
00:40:04I'm out of the force.
00:40:05Yes, for good.
00:40:07Now, if you don't see that, then on your bike and out of my way.
00:40:11Yeah, it's a question, you know, Carter.
00:40:12Are you with me 100% on this or not?
00:40:15Just yes or no?
00:40:19I must be out of my tiny mind.
00:40:22Yes, Garth.
00:40:24You won't hear.
00:40:35Can I help you?
00:40:44I'm looking for Miss Miriam Leslie.
00:40:46Not anymore.
00:40:47Why not?
00:40:49Because I'm bigger than you.
00:40:52Yep.
00:40:53Bigger and thicker.
00:40:55My job in life is to see that no one bothers Miss Leslie.
00:40:58I'm not looking for trouble, but I'm going to see...
00:41:05No, pal.
00:41:06You're not.
00:41:07You're not.
00:41:08No!
00:41:12A one, two, three, four, and...
00:41:16Hello, babe.
00:41:18I'm Beulah Mae.
00:41:19Nice and cheeky.
00:41:20You can call me, honey.
00:41:23That's my girl.
00:41:24You can call me anytime at home.
00:41:29Detective Inspector Regan.
00:41:37Are you Miriam Leslie?
00:41:39Why?
00:41:40Well, I'd like to talk to you if you are.
00:41:42How'd you get in here?
00:41:43Personality.
00:41:45Take your personality and get out.
00:41:47We're closed.
00:41:49Same place.
00:41:49Three, four, stay.
00:41:52Stay right here, I'll entertain.
00:41:55Though I don't be...
00:41:57Let's do it, Father.
00:41:58Let's take it down some more.
00:41:59Okay, and it's still right there.
00:42:01Three, four, stay right there.
00:42:06What do you want?
00:42:07Just a few questions.
00:42:10Look, I'm a working girl, and I'm working.
00:42:13This won't take long.
00:42:15Promise?
00:42:15Promise.
00:42:17Go on through the break.
00:42:19Okay.
00:42:27You don't drink on, do you?
00:42:30Only scotch.
00:42:36Ask your questions.
00:42:38Who's the heavy out the back?
00:42:40The one who's not supposed to let you in?
00:42:43We came to an arrangement.
00:42:45Who is he?
00:42:46He hangs around.
00:42:48I'll let you into a secret, Miss Leslie.
00:42:50He's guarding you.
00:42:52What's that supposed to mean?
00:42:54Have you ever seen the Trooping of the Colour?
00:42:57No.
00:42:58Well, that's the Queen of England,
00:42:59surrounded by a lot of heavies in various uniforms.
00:43:03And what kind of queen are you, Miss Leslie?
00:43:06Mallory's queen, right?
00:43:17Let's try from the middle eighth again.
00:43:19Right.
00:43:19Why don't you go and get yourself a coffee?
00:43:47Mallory.
00:43:50Okay.
00:43:55What's the guard doing here?
00:43:57Don't you know?
00:43:58No, I don't know.
00:44:02There are a lot of rumors going around
00:44:04about Mallory and Tusser people,
00:44:06which explains why you're here, I suppose, officer.
00:44:11I'm Mallory's woman, and he digs me, right?
00:44:14But he's worried the cops or somebody
00:44:17will get a hold of me,
00:44:18and because I'm a weak little woman,
00:44:19I'll blab.
00:44:21No way.
00:44:23I don't talk to nobody about nothing.
00:44:25There's a lot of pressure on your pal.
00:44:27I've been hearing things.
00:44:30He writes.
00:44:31The faithful lover.
00:44:37So he's on holiday,
00:44:39but he comes back to me.
00:44:40What's that round his neck,
00:44:41an Ormloo clock?
00:44:42His mother gave him that.
00:44:44He loves his mother.
00:44:46And you.
00:44:47And me.
00:44:49I'm worried about your friend.
00:44:52You know, when he comes back from Spain,
00:44:54one's got to chop the other,
00:44:55Mallory or Tusser.
00:44:56But I don't know anything.
00:44:58Well, you don't know until I ask.
00:45:01What name is he using?
00:45:02I don't know.
00:45:04There's a 50-50 chance
00:45:06Hugh could be responsible for his death.
00:45:09I don't know what name he's using.
00:45:12He's got a false passport.
00:45:14Where did he get it?
00:45:17Do I have to spell it out again?
00:45:21Try George South.
00:45:22He took these photos.
00:45:25Where do I find him?
00:45:27In the yellow pages,
00:45:28west, under photographers.
00:45:30Thanks.
00:45:31There's a small charge
00:45:33for keeping Mallory alive.
00:45:38What's your name?
00:45:40Jack Regan.
00:45:49To Jack.
00:45:50For all those sensational nights.
00:45:54Miriam.
00:45:58Thanks.
00:46:01Okay, Jill.
00:46:02Let's try it again.
00:46:05Let's try it for a minute.
00:46:06Let's try the ending.
00:46:08Okay?
00:46:08Yeah.
00:46:09So if you'd like me hanging around.
00:46:13Three, four.
00:46:14So if you'd like me hanging around,
00:46:18whether dull or sunny,
00:46:21I'll come running anytime at all.
00:46:27All you gotta do is call.
00:46:30I'll come running.
00:46:32That's my girl.
00:46:33Say, I'll come running.
00:46:37I'll come running.
00:46:38Oh, I'll come running.
00:46:40Yeah.
00:46:41Anytime at all.
00:46:44All day.
00:46:46That's all.
00:46:50Trouble?
00:46:52Come on, Maria, darling.
00:46:54Smile.
00:46:55Look how glennie.
00:46:57Smile.
00:46:58Look at Uncle Ernie.
00:46:59Look at Uncle Ernie.
00:47:00Love you miserable little bitch.
00:47:01I'll wait a minute, gents.
00:47:02You know what it is.
00:47:03These spaghetti benders,
00:47:04they're common market, you know.
00:47:05I mean, they only charge them a quid.
00:47:06They come in here,
00:47:07you'd think they were being photographed
00:47:08at a royal wedding.
00:47:09Do you mind holding that a minute, sir?
00:47:10Uncle Ernie's nearly ready.
00:47:11Good old Uncle Ernie.
00:47:12Good old Uncle Ernie.
00:47:14What was all this, sir?
00:47:15Uncle, my sergeant's gonna take
00:47:16Mama, Papa, and the bambino walkies.
00:47:18Take them upstairs, George.
00:47:19We'll have a word with Uncle Ernie.
00:47:20Excuse me, Mama, Papa.
00:47:21What was all this, sir?
00:47:22Come on.
00:47:23Come on.
00:47:24Come on.
00:47:25Come on.
00:47:26Come on.
00:47:27Come on.
00:47:28Come on.
00:47:29Come on.
00:47:30Come on.
00:47:31Come on.
00:47:32Come on, Maria.
00:47:33Come on.
00:47:34Come on.
00:47:35Come on.
00:47:36Come on.
00:47:37Come on.
00:47:38Come on.
00:47:39Come on.
00:47:40Come on.
00:47:41Come on.
00:47:42Come on.
00:47:43Come on, Papa.
00:47:44Cheers.
00:47:45Grazie.
00:47:46You can't do this.
00:47:47Ain't legal.
00:47:48Watch me.
00:47:49Spin the dark room, George.
00:47:50Right.
00:47:53What are you doing?
00:47:56Hey, you can't do this.
00:47:57You need a search warrant.
00:47:59We're not searching, Mr. South.
00:48:01I know, but well, you know what I mean.
00:48:05Look, you know why we're here.
00:48:07Why don't make it easy for yourself?
00:48:09Come on.
00:48:11Come on.
00:48:12Come on.
00:48:13Come on.
00:48:14Come on.
00:48:24She's a nice girl, you know.
00:48:26I mean, real close.
00:48:27Used to be a school teacher.
00:48:28Needs the money.
00:48:29I mean, everybody does it.
00:48:30There's no harm done.
00:48:32No, she needs a mortgage, help the kids at school, that.
00:48:35All that sort of thing.
00:48:37It's the common market.
00:48:41Be on assistant.
00:48:43Naughty Uncle Ernie.
00:48:47I'm not surprised you keep this lot in the loop.
00:48:50It seems that Tom Manston's going on holiday calling himself Albert Jones.
00:48:56And George Mallory.
00:48:59Alias.
00:49:01Alias.
00:49:03Altersmith.
00:49:05Not very imaginative.
00:49:07Right then, what are we going to do about Uncle Ernie, George?
00:49:12Oh, naughty photos, phony passports.
00:49:17I'd say that was a ten stretch.
00:49:19Certainly.
00:49:20Yeah, leave it out.
00:49:21Do me favours.
00:49:22Come on, Mr. South.
00:49:23Look, I'm only interested in Mallory.
00:49:25No, you help us out.
00:49:27Who knows?
00:49:28Promise you take it easy on me.
00:49:30I don't make promises.
00:49:31Did you photo Mallory?
00:49:33Oh, I copied a negative.
00:49:35Who brought it?
00:49:36Andy Morton.
00:49:37Morton?
00:49:40Mallory's driver.
00:49:41And where's he now?
00:49:42Spain?
00:49:43No.
00:49:44Notting Hill Gate.
00:49:45I delivered it myself.
00:49:46Address?
00:49:47Pinsdale Flats, number 28.
00:49:50Is he still there?
00:49:51I don't know.
00:49:52I heard he got a new job down the ice rink.
00:49:58Right.
00:49:59You're nicked.
00:50:00Yeah, you promised me that...
00:50:01South, you're a villain and a dirty old man into the bargain.
00:50:04Look, I run a legitimate business there.
00:50:06So does the government.
00:50:07They make a lot of money out of passports.
00:50:09Come on.
00:50:10Signore!
00:50:11Signore!
00:50:12Oh, shut up!
00:50:14I'm gonna play him in the car.
00:50:15I saw this one.
00:50:16Excuse me.
00:50:17Excuse me.
00:50:18Excuse me.
00:50:19The camera?
00:50:20Caput.
00:50:26A bit cold in here.
00:50:28Yes, because of the ice.
00:50:29Thanks.
00:50:30How many other levels have you got?
00:50:36Andy Morton.
00:50:37Detective Inspector Regan.
00:50:40Client Squad.
00:50:41Now, you worked for Mallory, so you know the score.
00:50:44I want to ask you some questions.
00:50:46You don't want to answer them, so up front I laid on.
00:50:49This is a colleague of mine.
00:50:51He hits people.
00:50:52Isn't that right, colleague?
00:50:54He's got a miracle technique.
00:50:56You want to see it?
00:50:57What do you want to know?
00:50:58He used to be a chauffeur for Mallory, right?
00:51:01Yeah.
00:51:02Where is he now?
00:51:03In Spain.
00:51:04Mallory's got a house in the country, hasn't he?
00:51:06No.
00:51:07Hit him.
00:51:08Address!
00:51:10Hadley Farm.
00:51:11Barn Inn.
00:51:12Tringle.
00:51:13Well, what are you doing working as a sweep?
00:51:25Mallory's so mean he wouldn't keep you on half pay while he was away.
00:51:28No.
00:51:29How long he was going to be away for?
00:51:31He'll be away till Tusser gets out.
00:51:33Maybe you know that.
00:51:34Maybe you know that when Tusser gets out, there won't be any Mallory for you to chauffe her.
00:51:38Because you're smart.
00:51:40No, you stay smart.
00:51:42You think of all the things you'd tell us if you got very smart.
00:51:47We'll be back.
00:51:50You ever thought of having a place in the country, George?
00:52:08But on the copper's bunts, do leave off.
00:52:11You were set up in the sticks, weren't you?
00:52:14Yeah.
00:52:15Swinging rice-lip.
00:52:17Yeah, my missus would like to get out of the smoke.
00:52:21And you out of the job, eh?
00:52:23Look, Governor, I'll do a deal with you.
00:52:27You don't talk about my wife.
00:52:29And I won't talk about how Mr. Laker might be right.
00:52:33And we might be messing up the whole murder squad investigation.
00:52:36I'll tell you something.
00:52:38He's on a winning streak with this amalgamation.
00:52:42You watch.
00:52:43You'll be in charge of giving the pencils out any day now.
00:52:46Yeah, and we'll be back to taking old ladies across the road.
00:52:48If we're lucky.
00:53:06Ciao, I'll get top off of you.
00:53:11Ready?
00:53:16Good evening, 분들.
00:53:18Bye.
00:53:27Bye.
00:53:28No way.
00:53:29Huh.
00:53:30Thanks, one time.
00:53:31Yes, one time.
00:53:32May your choice.
00:53:33Yes, you'll be happy.
00:53:34Well,Can you stop last night, dear?
00:53:35How many acres?
00:53:54About 20.
00:53:59Keep looking.
00:54:05Let's look upstairs.
00:54:16Look down there.
00:54:25George?
00:54:53George?
00:54:55Let's go.
00:54:59Mallory was wearing this in the photograph the girls showed me.
00:55:04He didn't have this in Spain with him a month ago,
00:55:07and then sent it back here.
00:55:09And according to the guard, he took it everywhere with him.
00:55:11It was a present from mummy.
00:55:13That's right, he loves his old lady.
00:55:15That's why he's not a great womanizer.
00:55:17No, it's all Sunday lunch with mum.
00:55:20Mallory's got money, and yet he doesn't give his faithful driver
00:55:23a few weeks off with pay.
00:55:26It's just not his style, Guf.
00:55:28He looks after his boys.
00:55:32Mallory didn't go to Spain.
00:55:35I reckon that was an old photograph and somebody else sent it.
00:55:38And Andy Morton got another job because he knew.
00:55:43I think Tussis had him killed.
00:55:46I reckon Mallory's dead.
00:55:53I think Tussis had him killed.
00:55:54I think Tussis had him killed.
00:55:55I think Tussis had him killed.
00:55:56Tell me something.
00:55:57You were doing well with me in the squad.
00:55:59Eighteen months passed, and you get up and quit.
00:56:01Why?
00:56:02I told you, Guf.
00:56:03New married, too much work.
00:56:04My wife never saw me.
00:56:05And I want to stay married.
00:56:06I told you, Guf.
00:56:07Hey, the bastards caught up with us.
00:56:12Isn't that one of Lakers sergeants in the driving seat?
00:56:17Yes.
00:56:18I've found my wife.
00:56:19I don't know how I want to stay.
00:56:21And I have to stay married.
00:56:23So did I.
00:56:24Hey, the bastards caught up with us.
00:56:26Isn't that one of Lakers sergeants in the driving seat?
00:56:29The bastard's caught up with us. Isn't that one of Laker's sergeants in the driving seat?
00:56:35Yes.
00:56:37I think we'll lose him.
00:56:44But hold on, Gubb. What happens if they put a call on MP?
00:56:47They'll have every mobile in London trying to stop us.
00:56:49And have every PC knowing that CIDs are each other's throats.
00:56:53Laker hasn't got the guts to start something like that.
00:56:57Hold on.
00:56:59I've never had you for a wills man, Gubb.
00:57:03Right.
00:57:04We see Mallory's dead.
00:57:07So Carly walks into that pub. Now what does he see that's his death warrant?
00:57:12He sees Tusser boys drinking with Mallory's.
00:57:17So Carly walks into that pub. Now what does he see that's his death warrant?
00:57:23He sees Tusser boys drinking with Mallory's.
00:57:28So Tusser's had Mallory knocked off.
00:57:31And his boys have sold out and they're celebrating.
00:57:33Right.
00:57:34They recognize Carly as a copper.
00:57:36They realize he'll suss him.
00:57:37So they've followed a poor bastard outside and kicked him to death.
00:57:41And the man who set it all up his miles away tucked up in bed.
00:57:48In the choker.
00:57:49And the man who set it all up his miles away tucked up in bed.
00:57:51In the choker.
00:57:55And the man who set it all up his door.
00:57:57Set it all up to you, Mr. Brown.
00:58:00Set it all up to me!
00:58:04Set it all up to me.
00:58:08Come on.
00:58:22Sit down.
00:58:23They don't.
00:58:35Detective Inspector Regan, Flying Squad.
00:58:42James Edward Tusser.
00:58:43I'd like you to answer a few questions.
00:58:46As a general rule, I don't do that kind of thing.
00:58:49You somewhat special?
00:58:51Yeah, I was told you was something special, so I looked at your form.
00:58:55I came to the conclusion that you're nothing.
00:58:58You couldn't move in on a sophisticated West End operation.
00:59:01The doorman would boot you around the back.
00:59:03What do you want?
00:59:05You want information.
00:59:07So where do we go from here?
00:59:09A colleague of mine was murdered yesterday.
00:59:12You hear about it?
00:59:13I've been in jail for 10 months.
00:59:15And when do you get out?
00:59:17Two months.
00:59:18You were sentenced to 18 months.
00:59:20Six months remission.
00:59:22For good behavior?
00:59:23Yeah.
00:59:24Sometimes it's a good idea to follow the rules.
00:59:27Look, people like you can kill each other.
00:59:30I don't give a damn.
00:59:32When you murder one of us, there are no rules at all.
00:59:36I don't know what you mean.
00:59:38Now you say you get six months off for good behavior.
00:59:42I'm saying what good behavior?
00:59:44You just hit me.
00:59:46That means the full 18 months plus an additional sentence for assaulting a police officer.
00:59:52I haven't hit you.
00:59:53No, no.
00:59:54My sergeant's going to hit me.
00:59:56But I'm going to say you hit me.
01:00:01You'd pull that one, eh?
01:00:03You know I would.
01:00:05Now you're going to give me information.
01:00:07I'm going to go away and check it.
01:00:10And if it's wrong, I'm going to come back and you're going to hit me again.
01:00:14And you're going to get another three years.
01:00:17You bastard.
01:00:20Now we know there are 15 key mugs in Mallory's lot.
01:00:24But Mallory never had a crown prince.
01:00:27So, who's running the shop while he's away?
01:00:32Three years is a long time when you've got a lot of bread waiting.
01:00:40Okay, Sergeant. Make you look good.
01:00:44Dale.
01:00:46Arthur Dale.
01:00:48He's number one.
01:00:50Yeah.
01:00:52Arthur Dale.
01:01:09Andy Morton, please.
01:01:11Yeah, speaking.
01:01:12Listen to me.
01:01:13I know Mallory's dead.
01:01:14Who's that?
01:01:16I know who killed that young copper.
01:01:18I want money.
01:01:20What?
01:01:21You tell Dale I want 10,000 in cash.
01:01:24Tonight at nine o'clock.
01:01:26I met him in the sheds near where the cop was slammed.
01:01:29Who are you?
01:01:30Nine o'clock on the waste ground.
01:01:32It's Regan here.
01:01:33You get me Sergeant Kent.
01:01:35Mr. Regan?
01:01:36Look, I just had a call from a Mrs. Annie Morris.
01:01:37She wants you to contact her.
01:01:38Yeah.
01:01:39Look, I'll put you through to Mr. Askins.
01:01:41He's very anxious to speak to you.
01:01:42No, don't do that.
01:01:43Look, I was instructed to put you through to Mr. Askins as soon as you're called.
01:01:44Shut up, Sergeant.
01:01:45And write this down.
01:01:46Hadley Farms, Barn End, Tring.
01:01:47Tell Mr. Askins Mallory's dead.
01:01:48That's where he's buried.
01:01:49Regan.
01:01:50What the hell do you mean by visiting Tusser?
01:01:51He out of your mind?
01:01:52I'll listen to you.
01:01:53I'll listen to you.
01:01:54I'll listen to you.
01:01:55I'll listen to you.
01:01:56I'll listen to you.
01:01:57I'll listen to you.
01:01:58I'll listen to you.
01:01:59I'll listen to you.
01:02:00I'll listen to you.
01:02:02OK, Studio, ready to record.
01:02:21Superintendent, you've read the fictional script about the robbery.
01:02:23Yes.
01:02:24I'm going to ask you a few questions about it.
01:02:25All right, lord.
01:02:26Superintendent, you've read the fictional script about the robbery.
01:02:28Yes.
01:02:29I'm going to ask you a few questions about it as if you were on TV, right?
01:02:32Right.
01:02:33Superintendent Maynard,
01:02:34this is the fifth major bank robbery to take place in London in the past month.
01:02:38Now, can I ask you what you're doing about it?
01:02:43Well...
01:02:44Superintendent, always start to answer the question as soon as the interviewer stops.
01:02:48If you pause even for a couple of seconds, you're in trouble.
01:02:51No seconds seem like hours to the viewer.
01:02:53Looks like you're stumped for an answer.
01:02:57All right, let's press on.
01:02:59When you're ready, Superintendent.
01:03:03Superintendent, those five major bank robberies that have taken place in London in the past month,
01:03:09what are you doing about it?
01:03:10We've assigned a team of top detectives a case.
01:03:14We have, in the past few days, received some important information,
01:03:16and we'll be acting on that information.
01:03:18Further, I think it's...
01:03:19Stop, Sergeant.
01:03:20Sorry to keep interrupting, Superintendent, but we've got to get it right.
01:03:23Either look at me or look at the camera.
01:03:25Don't switch your eyes back and forth between the two.
01:03:27Otherwise, in close-up, you just end up by looking shifty.
01:03:31If you must move your eyes, then move them slowly and deliberately.
01:03:34Okay?
01:03:35Hmm.
01:03:36Hmm.
01:03:36Yeah.
01:03:37Superintendent, then...
01:03:38Will you excuse me one, then?
01:03:44Where's makeup?
01:03:46Superintendent is 53.
01:03:47He looks 60.
01:03:49Plant a boot up her backside, will you?
01:03:50We've got to do something about him, sir.
01:03:52He's not listening to anyone.
01:03:56Do you think I look shifty?
01:03:59And contrary to my explicit instructions to go snooping around the serious crime squad,
01:04:03visit Tusser, interview Mallory's girlfriend,
01:04:06now he's left orders for me to go and dig up some bloody farm.
01:04:08You mean disciplinary charges?
01:04:10Yes.
01:04:11It's not so Reagan.
01:04:13Twenty years ago, he'd been the perfect cop.
01:04:15The days of individualists.
01:04:16Now he's out on a limb.
01:04:19I sometimes wonder if these new ideas are for the best.
01:04:23I think so, sir.
01:04:25Okay.
01:04:26Bring him in.
01:04:26Put him on suspension with full pay.
01:04:28Right, sir.
01:04:30By the way,
01:04:31I think he's right about Mallory.
01:04:33Arrange a search for the farmhouse and grounds.
01:04:35All right, sir.
01:05:05Hello, love.
01:05:12Eddie's back.
01:05:14You're Eddie?
01:05:15He's not due back for months yet.
01:05:17Tanker caught fire.
01:05:19Lengthy repairs.
01:05:21When did he get back?
01:05:23Last night.
01:05:24It looks like permanent.
01:05:25He's flown him back to a new job.
01:05:28Where's he now?
01:05:29He's out buying a car.
01:05:31He won't be back for a while.
01:05:35So how is it between you two?
01:05:41Good.
01:05:42Considering.
01:05:43Considering what?
01:05:44Considering you left a jacket and two pair of white fronts in his wardrobe.
01:05:48What did he say to that?
01:05:50Not a lot.
01:05:51He's got a forgiving nature.
01:05:54Then you reckon he's back for good?
01:05:55Yeah.
01:05:59That's all right with you.
01:06:01You'll have him back.
01:06:02He's good to.
01:06:07Sure.
01:06:09Nice of that, really.
01:06:10I suppose so.
01:06:13It's a great pity, honey.
01:06:15It's a bloody shame.
01:06:16What about your wife?
01:06:20Six months ago, you thought there might be a chance.
01:06:23Not really.
01:06:26You've got to get someone to look after you, Jack.
01:06:32Lucky old Eddie.
01:06:35I loved you.
01:06:38Yeah.
01:06:38If it doesn't work out with him.
01:06:49Sure.
01:06:49Sure.
01:07:08Mr. Dale.
01:07:22What brings you here?
01:07:27I mean, I was just about to knock off.
01:07:30I'd have come round to see you, Mr. Dale.
01:07:33Unless, of course, you were passing.
01:07:34A lovely piece, right, Mr. Dale?
01:07:50I know her.
01:07:54That ain't a boy.
01:07:55It's the instructor.
01:07:57Would you like an introduction?
01:08:03Did you find out?
01:08:04That a bloke was.
01:08:06You know, the telephone call.
01:08:08Not yet.
01:08:10I beg your pardon?
01:08:15It's a bit worrying, isn't it?
01:08:17Or is somebody phoning up like that out of the room?
01:08:21Saying Mallory was murdered.
01:08:23The story is he's supposed to be in Spain, isn't it?
01:08:26That's right, Andy.
01:08:27Spain.
01:08:28What are you going to do about it?
01:08:29You know, the bloke on the phone.
01:08:32I was going to ask you.
01:08:34I don't understand.
01:08:35Six of us know Mallory's dead.
01:08:38Mr. Tusser, me, George, Tony, and Eddie, and you.
01:08:42You know, Andy.
01:08:44Right, Andy?
01:08:46Yeah.
01:08:46Now, the reason we know, uh, me, George, Tony, and Eddie, is that we topped the bloke, for Mr. Tusser.
01:08:56So, we'd be careful about sharding it around.
01:08:59I mean, the involvement in the death, you see.
01:09:03Andy, you understand?
01:09:04Andy, you understand?
01:09:05We'd keep our trap shut, right?
01:09:07Right?
01:09:08Yeah.
01:09:09How about you?
01:09:10How about me?
01:09:11You've loosed off to some burke, or you're pulling the caper yourself.
01:09:13You've got some mate waiting for ten grand that you'll split.
01:09:14Oh, no!
01:09:15Sit down, Eddie.
01:09:16Sit.
01:09:17I'll know you've double-crossed us, Eddie.
01:09:18You've got it completely wrong, Mr. Dale.
01:09:19I'm not going to wipe you yet.
01:09:20I'm just going to teach you a little lesson, Andy.
01:09:21You seem to have forgotten what loyalty is about, and you'll have to learn it again.
01:09:23Oh, you're not going to die.
01:09:24Just, uh, hospital for a few months.
01:09:25Give you time to think things over and decide never to mess with me, or the lads, or Mr.
01:09:26Tusser again.
01:09:27Never do it, Eddie.
01:09:28I'm not going to wipe you yet, just going to teach you a little lesson, Andy.
01:09:32You seem to have forgotten what loyalty is about, and you'll have to learn it again.
01:09:35Oh, you're not going to die, just, uh, hospital for a few months.
01:09:41Give you time to think things over and decide never to mess with me,
01:09:45or the lads, or Mr. Tusser again.
01:09:50Never do it, Andy.
01:09:58You know all issue of guns have to be reported direct to the superintendent now?
01:10:09I've signed for it.
01:10:11I'll have it back in the morning before the super knows I've got it.
01:10:28Oh, my God.
01:10:45Oh, my God.
01:10:50Over there!
01:11:11Get Inspector Laika.
01:11:20Nothing up here, sir?
01:11:23Mr. Laker, over here.
01:11:50Take the logs away.
01:12:20George Mallory.
01:12:24You bastard, Regan.
01:12:27You lucky bastard.
01:12:50Let's go.
01:13:17Who are you?
01:13:19The information I've got about Mallory being dead, and you killing that cop...
01:13:24I've put it in a note and sent it to a friend.
01:13:26Nobody pays blackmail her, son.
01:13:28I've got proof you tried to kill that cop.
01:13:31The car was an accident.
01:13:32That's right. We killed people.
01:13:35But we fluffed that one.
01:13:40I shan't make the same mistake twice.
01:13:43I want ten grand.
01:13:44Okay, you've got a friend, but you're the witness, not him.
01:13:49I'll make a deal with you.
01:13:52You tell me you've blabbed, you can walk out of here.
01:13:54Yes or no?
01:13:56Bad luck, son.
01:13:58Cut up!
01:14:04I'm Regan, Flying Squad.
01:14:07Arthur Dale, you're under arrest.
01:14:10George?
01:14:12Tony? Eddie?
01:14:16That right.
01:14:17What do you mean I'm under arrest? I've got three boys here with three shooters.
01:14:22You want to live? Either of you two want to live?
01:14:25Yes.
01:14:27Then we'll have to talk a deal.
01:14:29You don't understand.
01:14:31My skipper's got the guts to blow your head off the minute I tell him.
01:14:34Are you stupid?
01:14:36You can't kill me.
01:14:39He'll be dead two seconds after it.
01:14:41Why?
01:14:42Because my boys are zero here.
01:14:44Will they?
01:14:46Will you?
01:14:48Tony?
01:14:49Eddie?
01:14:50George?
01:14:51Come on in, lads.
01:14:53We're the Sweeney. We kill him, nothing.
01:14:55You kill us, thirty years.
01:14:59So, come on.
01:15:02Tony? Eddie?
01:15:03It won't be as easy as Cowley.
01:15:16George, come back.
01:15:20Tony, Eddie, where are you going?
01:15:21Don't move.
01:15:22Come back, you bastards!
01:15:24George, shut up!
01:15:25It looks like it's just you and us, Dale.
01:15:36Now, are we going to blow your head off or are you going to point that gun down?
01:15:46You heard all that.
01:15:48You heard the admission about Cowley.
01:15:51Oh, yes, Cowley.
01:15:55Now, get the car.
01:16:01Now, get the car.
01:16:05Yes, sir.
01:16:06Now, you'll be telling us the names in full.
01:16:09There's Tony, and Eddie, and George.
01:16:13Cowley was a good...
01:16:23This stinking ape is licensed till March.
01:16:26It's April the 20th.
01:16:27I love you for that and off.
01:16:32Come in.
01:16:39Sit down, Jack.
01:16:40I've got the lad report.
01:16:48We've got the lad report.
01:16:50Bullets in Mallory were fired from Dale's gun.
01:16:53He was going to take the rest of the bunch and join Tusser's mob.
01:16:56Not very nice.
01:16:57This afternoon, I ordered you to be suspended pending disciplinary charges.
01:17:09So I hear.
01:17:11You've done a fairish job.
01:17:14Serious crime squad had 20 men on Mallory.
01:17:16No idea he was dead.
01:17:17And you've got Dale for that.
01:17:20And for killing Cowley.
01:17:22Poor Cowley.
01:17:23He was roaming around out there, not writing reports, not communicating with anybody.
01:17:29Your responsibility.
01:17:30But just like you roam around out there.
01:17:33Oh, Jack.
01:17:36Today's the one-man bands are over.
01:17:38Now we're an orchestra.
01:17:40Every move you made could have been made with the necessary authority,
01:17:45tact and diplomacy.
01:17:47As it is, you've made S.C.S. look like fools and later you're sworn enemy.
01:17:51And what's most important, you could have ended up dead like Cowley.
01:17:55Did I get the result?
01:17:57You're a gambler, Jack.
01:17:59You played a long shot and it came up.
01:18:03That's why we're ringing the changes.
01:18:06No more lone rangers.
01:18:07From now on, you'll be one two hundredth part of any successful case, not the hero of the hour.
01:18:12I have a feeling you're not going to buy this.
01:18:19But think about it.
01:18:21And I'll think about you.
01:18:22Somehow we've got to find a way of making you work as part of a team.
01:18:28Or go away.
01:18:31Get right out of it.
01:18:38Hey, Gavgav.
01:18:39What's up?
01:18:42Well, you got away with it again, didn't you?
01:18:44Well, don't you start.
01:18:46I got away with it.
01:18:47I got the bastard who did it.
01:18:50You know, I'm standing in the freezing cold while my wife's at home in bed.
01:18:54I hope.
01:18:56Oh, come on, George.
01:18:57You're not a nine-to-five man over there sitting behind a desk,
01:19:02swigging tea all day and waiting to get home to the roses.
01:19:05You're like me.
01:19:06You're a copper.
01:19:07You belong out here in the cold.
01:19:09You know it.
01:19:13Yeah.
01:19:18Fancy a decent drink?
01:19:22Well, my arm could be twisted.
01:19:25I know a place where we can get one.
01:19:26I love you.
01:19:27You're a big one.
01:19:28No, no, no, no.
01:19:29I have no beer.
01:19:30I make that drink, you know.
01:19:31You're aNY.
01:19:32I'm not.
01:19:32All right.
01:19:33I can't get a drink.
01:19:33Let's go.
01:19:34I see you, Peter, that's you.
01:19:34You're a sweet.
01:19:35No, no.
01:19:36It's a hot, no.
01:19:36That's hot!
01:19:37He's a hot pot.
01:19:37No, never, never.
01:19:38I'll drink.
01:19:39No, never, never.
01:19:39No, never.
01:19:41It's amazing.
01:19:42You're a hot pot.
01:19:43I love you.
01:19:44A hot pot.
01:19:45It's fun.
01:19:45No, no, never.
