00:28Tim?

00:28Yes, I can hear you.

00:29Tim, she's back.

00:31Hello, she's stopped outside the bank.

00:32She's filling in her purse for something.

00:35No, no, it's okay.

00:36She was just getting her keys out, that's all.

00:38Pub must be locked, I suppose.

00:40Well, that's all.

00:43Anybody with her?

00:45No, she's on her own.

00:47She's all right.

00:48Leave her alone.

00:49Hey, Dick, she won't be able to see you from the window, will she?

00:52Her window.

00:54What, you mean when she gets inside?

00:55No, no chance.

00:56She won't be able to see me out the window.

00:57I'm right on top of her room.

00:58It's a pretty upfront fire of, is it?

01:02It's going to be a bloody lonely up here all night, you know?

01:04You stay put.

01:06Remind us just before the pub opens and we'll keep it quiet down here.

01:09And Dick,

01:10keep the chat down.

01:12Never know who might be listening.

01:13Yeah, right.

01:14No, no.

01:14I know who might be listening.

01:18All castings are going to appear.

01:19There are all castings are going to appear.

01:21Let's go.

01:51You're nine minutes late.

01:53That pub will be full of punters in 31 minutes.

01:57But get these down here and get on with it.

01:59Don't look like that, son.

02:01You ain't started yet.

02:21I want accurate times at every stage when I'm as late already.

02:48I don't want the time made up as soon as possible.

02:51Remember what I said at the briefing.

02:53This operation is too important politically to take any risks.

02:59Ah, well done, Sergeant.

03:01I don't think there's much doubt, is there?

03:03No, it's Cyrus Long, all right.

03:05You think she's in on it, sir?

03:07Get hold of Inspector Jack Regan for me, will you?

03:10He might be able to help us out.

03:11Do we have to bring the school in, sir?

03:14At one time it seems they were contemplating marriage.

03:17Now, we're not going to let a little wreck like that go to waste, are we, Sergeant?

03:21No.

03:22I want Regan here five minutes ago.

03:23I really appreciate this, Sergeant.

03:34I was going to be spending a dull afternoon watching Fulham play.

03:39Can't we go any faster?

03:41My governor likes people to be punctual.

03:43How long have you worked for Superintendent Grant?

03:45Six months.

03:46Well, my money is the best superintendent to DS could have.

03:48There is a certain amount of wastage amongst his personnel.

03:52What?

03:53I mean, his men keep dying on him.

03:54It's pretty dangerous working for ground, isn't it?

03:56We have the highest arrest rate in the men.

03:58Yeah, cardiac arrest.

04:00Criticism is something the governor encourages.

04:03Sometimes I think he's his own worst enemy.

04:05Not while I'm around.

04:18Regan, Governor.

04:35Congratulations on your latest medal.

04:37Decoration.

04:38Sit down.

04:40Well, it was good of you to volunteer.

04:43Volunteer?

04:44For the operation.

04:45Wouldn't, uh, Jelinek fill you in?

04:50Ah, just as well.

04:51The situation has developed since then.

04:53Don't tell me it's dangerous.

04:55It presents a certain physical challenge.

04:57How well do you know a woman called Iris Long?

05:01I gather you used to see quite a lot of her.

05:05What does that mean?

05:06She's involved in this right up to her neck.

05:09There's a bank rate going on, Regan.

05:12And I'd like to have the Sergeant fill you in.

05:14One, two, three, two, four.

05:18Are you back on patrol?

05:19The woman Long lives above a pub, here,

05:23next to the National Anglia Bank.

05:25The raiders are already inside the bank.

05:28They've established a three-way radio link

05:30between the bank, the leader, who we call Control,

05:33and a sort of super scout

05:34who's ensconced somewhere on the roof.

05:36We've codenamed him Eagle.

05:38Eagle?

05:39That's nice, isn't it?

05:40They've been inside the bank since early this morning.

05:45They came out of Long's window at the top of the pub,

05:48and they entered the bank across the roof.

05:51They've neutralised the alarms,

05:53and now we think they're working in the vaults.

05:56We're monitoring their radio.

05:58Now, we want someone who can get into Long's room

06:01and stay there without arising suspicion.

06:05Someone like me.

06:06Yes.

06:07Well, you know the lady, don't you?

06:08We want to cut off Chummy's exit

06:10while we get on with the serious business

06:12of locating control.

06:14That's what these lads are doing now.

06:15And how long's that going to take?

06:18Three hours at the most.

06:20You're going down there straight away.

06:21Now, just a minute, Governor.

06:24If you know they're inside,

06:26winkle them up.

06:27Now.

06:29Well, that's what your crime squad's all about, isn't it?

06:31And what about their leader?

06:33What about control?

06:34Well, you pick the gaffer up later, don't you?

06:36That's always the way.

06:37But he's not going to hang about

06:38while we're arresting his friends, is he?

06:40We're going to miss the biggest fish,

06:41and there's something else besides.

06:44That bank doesn't carry enough cash

06:46to warrant an operation of this size.

06:48They're after something in the safe deposit boxes, aren't they?

06:51Something very big.

06:53And I'm going to wait until they've got it

06:55before I nick them.

06:57That way we'll all know what it is

06:58we've been protecting, won't we?

07:01And you become a hero.

07:04Not at my expense.

07:06What about Long?

07:07Iris Long is someone I knew years ago.

07:09She's nothing to do with me now.

07:11No, this is just another of your crackpot schemes

07:13that sent many a keen young jack to his grave.

07:16Well, I'm having nothing to do with it.

07:18Nothing.

07:19All you have to do is stay in that room

07:21with your lady friend.

07:22And while you're there,

07:23they won't risk leaving the bank.

07:25Just give us two closing time.

07:27Oh, closing time now, is it?

07:29We'll have located control by then.

07:31It may have escaped your notice,

07:33but half a dozen men armed to the teeth

07:35are likely to come through the window

07:36before closing time.

07:38And I'm likely to be blown out of that room

07:40like a cork out of a bottle.

07:43I'm fine for this if it makes you feel any better.

07:45Yes, it does make me feel better.

07:50You want to pull up here, sir?

07:51Oh, no, no, right outside the pub.

07:54Open the door as I get out.

07:56Give me a salute and play God Save the Queen.

07:58You're vegan, by the way.

08:06I want you to find out

08:07if the landlord's in on this.

08:08Don't worry, I've got men posted

08:10round each corner.

08:11Bullets don't travel round corners, do they?

08:14Oh, by the way,

08:15does the local link know what's going on here?

08:17No, not yet.

08:19Just till closing time.

08:20Stay on the alert, won't you?

08:21Such men were sent

08:25to try our patience, Jelinek.

08:47Georgie?

08:48Come and have a look at this.

08:49What do you think?

08:57Ten minutes?

08:58Go on.

09:19Squad office, Sergeant Carter.

09:26George, this is the D.I.

09:28Listen, I'm outside a pub

09:30on the corner of Wollstone Gardens.

09:32In a minute, I shall be upstairs

09:33with a girl I know.

09:34Draw yourself a pistol

09:36and get down here with a friend.

09:38Someone who can shoot straight.

09:40Grant's mob are here,

09:41but the locals haven't been informed.

09:43And neither of them know about you,

09:44so be careful.

09:45You'll be caught in crossfire.

09:46Charming.

09:47What's going on?

09:48There's a bank screwing going on.

09:49Right next door to the pub.

09:51I see.

09:51I want you to sit in the bar

09:52till closing time,

09:53if necessary,

09:54and do nothing

09:55till I scream, right?

09:56Right, gotcha.

09:57So long.

09:58Bertenshaw!

10:16Hey, Jerry!

10:17Yeah?

10:19Look, get yourself a gun.

10:20You're working.

10:21Terrific.

10:28I'm looking for Iris.

10:31Iris Sloan, you know Iris.

10:33I'm a friend of hers.

10:35What's your name?

10:37Regan.

10:43There's a fella here called Regan.

10:46Is it Jack Regan?

10:48He says yes.

10:51Right.

10:54Top of the stairs,

10:55first on the right.

10:56Give us a bundle of scotch, will you?

10:58She doesn't drink scotch.

10:59I do.

11:013.31.

11:22Come in, Jack.

11:26There's no ice,

11:39unless you can mend the fridge.

11:40Who's your friend?

11:58None of your business.

12:05A nice view.

12:06On a clear day,

12:08you see Centrepoint.

12:12That's nice, isn't it?

12:13Yeah.

12:15Do you know somebody's made it?

12:18How have you been keeping, Jack?

12:20Must be nearly four years.

12:22More like ten.

12:24What rank do they dignify you with now?

12:27Inspector.

12:29What are you doing tonight?

12:31Going out.

12:32Call him.

12:32Tell him he's off.

12:33No, I can't.

12:34Not tonight.

12:36Call, sir.

12:37If you want to make an appointment.

12:39What?

12:40I'd do it for money these days.

12:43What are you trying to do?

12:43Impress me.

12:45I'm trying to say no, gracefully.

12:48You live in a bedsitter above a pub.

12:51The landlord didn't lose his licence before you struck me.

12:54Are you turning this place over?

12:56Yeah.

12:56Do you mind?

12:58You haven't changed, have you?

13:00You come in here swinging a bottle of scotch.

13:04You are in trouble.

13:06Do you know that?

13:08The last time I had a place turned over,

13:10I was with this posh John in St John's Wood.

13:13Nearly rhymed, didn't it?

13:15The doorbell rings,

13:17and he goes down to answer it.

13:19There are these two six-foot geezers

13:21with size 12 boots on.

13:22You know who we are, they're saying,

13:24while we're here.

13:25Yeah, he says, only I wasn't expecting you so soon.

13:28Do come in.

13:29Then the John comes up to me.

13:31I honestly says, I want you to leave.

13:33You know who they are, I says.

13:35Yeah, he says, they're masons.

13:36You see, I've applied to join,

13:38and they've sent out a couple of their committee.

13:40Do leave off, I says.

13:42They're not masons.

13:44Look, just get dressed, he says,

13:45and go out the back way.

13:46Now, just at this moment,

13:48the everyone comes in.

13:49Oh, John says, this is my wife.

13:52Can I see all dirty laundry, he says,

13:54without blinking.

13:55My laundry?

13:57Yeah, your underpants.

13:59Now, look, the John says,

14:00don't get me wrong,

14:01and I don't want to seem discurped,

14:02but I don't see what becoming a mason

14:04has got to do with my underpants.

14:09Mister, the big one says,

14:12we are not masons,

14:13we are CID,

14:15and we are investigating a rape case

14:17in which you are a prime suspect,

14:19suspect.

14:20At which,

14:21my John faints.

14:22That geezer didn't rape anyone,

14:24I says,

14:25spraining with aftershave.

14:27Where's the laundry?

14:28That's all, they say.

14:29Try the bathroom, I says.

14:32So they go out to the bathroom.

14:34I've never seen them again.

14:37I reckon they left through the sewers.

14:41Where's your bathroom, Iris?

14:42Straight down the hall.

14:43And hurry up.

14:52Because I'm going out.

14:55Listen,

14:55I don't know who he is.

14:58He said his name was Regan,

14:59and she said she knew him.

15:00That's all.

15:02Right.

15:05The cinema was so hot,

15:07I fell asleep, you see.

15:08Now, the film went round.

15:09When I woke up,

15:10it was exactly the same place

15:12as when I went to sleep.

15:13I can't have a lie.

15:13Yeah, so I watched it to the end,

15:15then I went out into the street,

15:16it was pitch black.

15:18I thought a gun did, though.

15:22How much longer are you going to be, Georgie?

15:23Two minutes.

15:24Well, I hope so.

15:25Time's going.

15:26Jim.

15:27The man.

15:29Keep going, Georgie.

15:30One, one, one, one.

15:32And dealing for me.

15:34Key.

15:36I can't see a message.

15:37I can't see a message.

15:37I can't see a message here.

15:40Jim.

15:40Oh, Jim.

15:42Yes, Jim here.

15:43At last, listen carefully.

15:45Someone's with that girl in her room.

15:46The landlord just phoned me.

15:47Who is it?

15:48The fool doesn't know.

15:49I want you to find out.

15:51All right, stick here.

15:52Look, I can take a look if you like.

15:54No, your job is to stay exactly where you are

15:56and watch the streets.

15:57Don't move unless I tell you.

15:58Is that clear?

15:59Yeah, got it.

16:00Yeah.

16:02Jim, go up on the pop roof yourself

16:04and take a look in the girl's window.

16:05Let me know who it is in that room.

16:07Don't get yourself spotted, understand?

16:08All right.

16:14I'm going up on the roof.

16:15Give me my coat and the shooter.

16:17And Georgie, you keep going.

16:19Right.

16:19Go up on the roof.

16:232, generations, 2, 3.

16:24All now to put a move of theesh.

16:251, 3.

16:262, 1, 3.

16:272, 2, 2.

16:272, 3.

16:281, 1, 3.

16:289.

16:29Ampe over.

16:34Right.

16:35Out.

16:352, 1, 2, 1.

16:371, 1, 3.

16:381, 2.

16:391, 3.

16:401, 3.

16:412.

16:422, 1, 3.

16:432.

16:441, 2.

16:451, 2.

16:47You notice I'm not eating?

17:10I just want you to realise I've cooked this meal under protest.

17:13As far as I'm concerned, I'm being kept here against my will.

17:16Have you ever heard of Superintendent Grant, Serious Crime Squad?

17:20No.

17:22He's got you marked.

17:24What as?

17:25Someone with big-time criminal connections.

17:28He's right.

17:29He's not a very pleasant man to know.

17:32Doesn't like women.

17:34One of those.

17:35I put him in the same class as Jack the Ripper.

17:41You're not sitting in a comfy chair.

17:44I can't see the tally.

17:46You can't see the window, either.

17:48You keep looking at that window.

17:52I think it started to rain.

17:54Has it?

17:55Yeah.

17:58What do you keep looking at that window for?

18:00I thought I saw someone outside it, that's all.

18:04It's the cat from the dairy.

18:07Poor thing.

18:08It would be soaking.

18:09Why don't you let it in, then?

18:10You know, this Superintendent Grant, he thinks there's a bank rate going on next door.

18:20He says that half a tonne of equipment was seen manoeuvring itself out of your window early this morning.

18:27He was wondering if there could be a connection.

18:29Oh, and he sent you round to see if there was?

18:31Is.

18:32They're still in there.

18:34Oh.

18:35And I thought this was going to be a social occasion.

18:39In some ways it is.

18:40I told him to stuff it.

18:44Till your name came up.

18:46Oh, do leave off, Jack.

18:49You wouldn't cross the street to say hello to me if I lay naked on a zebra crossing.

18:53Don't pretend to be what you're not.

18:55All right, you tell me why I'm here.

18:56Because you wanted to combine business with pleasure.

18:59That's plain, isn't it?

19:00Look, Iris, the world does not revolve round your body.

19:03This bloke Galileo proved it goes round the sun.

19:06And what's more, I'm no longer the despised aide to CID that was when I knew you.

19:10I don't need it every afternoon anymore.

19:12And you don't get it either, do you?

19:14Ball, pot belly, double chin.

19:17Most coppers get like that.

19:18You've been conducting a survey.

19:19My sister told me that.

19:20Yeah, all the ones that Millie knows are like that.

19:22You know, if she shaved my ears off her chest and put a frock on my neck.

19:25Oh, I don't know what I have. I saw in you.

19:26You saw free food, free pictures and a hoped-for fur coat.

19:30And was it worth it?

19:3218 months of you, where did that get me?

19:48What did they pay you to stay out of the room till lunchtime?

19:52Ten quid.

19:54You need a good agent.

19:56This job wouldn't be going off if there wasn't at least 50 grand in it.

20:00Look, all this man asked was if I'd rent my room for an hour.

20:05Who was it?

20:05I don't know.

20:06Some Henry in the bar.

20:07Look, will you stop going on about Henrys and Johns and stop pretending you're on the bloody game?

20:12You'd like to be, but you don't have the application.

20:14There's one thing I've never done.

20:21Made a man happy.

20:24There's one thing I've never understood.

20:25It's how you can make remarks like that stone-cold sober.

20:30How long have you known him?

20:32Who?

20:32The guy who gave you the ten.

20:35I just met him.

20:37Where?

20:37Downstairs.

20:39The landlord introduced us.

20:41How old is he?

20:44About 40.

20:46Going to seed.

20:47Not what I'd call attractive, but he had plenty of money.

20:51What does he do for a living?

20:52I don't know.

20:53He's just some Henry.

20:54He knows the landlord?

20:56Yeah.

20:56I think he might.

20:59Sometimes when I'm coming through, he'll ask me if I'll have a drink.

21:02Who?

21:02To Henry?

21:02I thought you didn't want to call him Henry.

21:04All right.

21:05This geezer, then.

21:06They both buy me drinks.

21:07And they give you a tenner?

21:0820.

21:0920?

21:1010 for now and 10 for later.

21:12You mean 10 for going out and 10 for coming back?

21:14I don't know, Jack.

21:15Do I?

21:16Well, do you?

21:19Keep quiet.

21:23God, Miley, what are you doing with that thing?

21:25I'm a copper, aren't I?

21:27You leave that poor cat alone.

21:30That's not a bloody cat.

21:32You leave that poor cat.

21:33Let's go.

21:34You leave that poor cat.

21:38You leave that poor cat.

21:38All alone, you have to be my body.

21:44You'll never die to be near me.

21:47No, you don't have to be near me.

21:51I'm a copper, aren't I?

21:53You leave that poor cat.

21:54There's someone on the roof.

22:15What do you mean?

22:16There's a bloke.

22:17There's someone on the roof.

22:18Where'd he come from?

22:20Out of the window.

22:22Out the window.

22:23He come out the window.

22:24Pull yourself together.

22:25That's Jim.

22:26No, Jim's here.

22:27Jim's here too.

22:29Right, now listen carefully.

22:30Stay exactly where you are and keep out of sight.

22:32Is that clear?

22:32Yeah, but he's got a gun.

22:34Right, Jim.

22:35What the devil is he doing on the roof?

22:37Tell the neck.

22:38Make a notice to keep off the roof.

22:39Yes, sir.

22:40We're getting a different bearing on the controller again, sir.

22:43This one is out by 80 degrees.

22:45Sergeant, are you saying that controller's using different radio sets?

22:48No, sir.

22:49It's more likely he's mobile.

22:51I'd say he was operating from a car.

22:54This is Jim.

22:55I've been having a look round up here.

22:56I reckon she's got a customer with her.

22:58Customer with a gun?

23:00I don't know anything about that.

23:02I didn't see no gun.

23:04What I do know is he's going back in.

23:07Right.

23:08Radio silence until he's gone.

23:09I'll leave my shooter up here with Dick.

23:33Have another look through that window.

23:34And if he's harmless, get back in the back.

23:36You're behind schedule.

23:38Right.

23:46Sergeant, if control is in a car,

23:49how long will it take to locate him?

23:51If he's in a car, sir, it could take all night.

23:54I don't think we've got all night.

23:55He must not be sidetracked by roof walkers or anybody else.

23:58Unless they're really dangerous.

24:06Are you sure they're robbing a bank?

24:09Yeah.

24:10I told you.

24:12What bank?

24:14That one next door, I told you.

24:17Oh, I know you told me.

24:19I just don't believe you.

24:25What were you doing on the phone?

24:27What phone?

24:29I saw you through the window when I was coming back.

24:33I was telling my boyfriend I couldn't come out

24:36on account if I had a cold.

24:39Here.

24:41I thought he was chasing bank robbers, not spying on me.

24:43Yeah, where's my gun?

24:45In the dishwasher.

24:46You put it in the dishwasher?

24:48It was filthy.

24:51What are you trying to do?

24:56That's government property.

24:58Ah!

24:59Ah!

25:00What is it?

25:01Face at the window.

25:02Where are you going?

25:02Yeah, the police.

25:03Get your hands off me.

25:04I am the police.

25:06I told you about the face in the window, remember?

25:09Just act naturally and you'll go away.

25:10Oh, he won't.

25:11Yes, he will.

25:12Oh, he won't.

25:13Yes, he will.

25:15Oh.

25:21Will he?

25:22Yes.

25:25Yeah.

25:25It's all right.

25:31Is that in the course of duty?

25:34You've ruined my pistol.

25:36Do you know that?

25:41Why's that phone?

25:43Right out on the landing.

25:44Hello?

26:06PHONE RINGS

26:08PHONE RINGS

26:10Hello?

26:12Inspector who?

26:16A bloke here wants a copper.

26:18Inspector Regal.

26:24Old bin all over the place!

26:26Get back! Police!

26:28Hello? Regan?

26:30Looks as if someone's gonna fetch him, sir.

26:32Good.

26:34It's open all over the place!

26:36It's a police!

26:38It's a police!

26:40I tell you, it's a police!

26:42There, you!

26:44I saw that!

26:52Look, you!

26:54Good boy!

27:04Get that one!

27:06After him!

27:08Right!

27:10Get that one!

27:12After him!

27:14Right!

27:16Hey!

27:17Hey!

27:18Hey!

27:19Hey!

27:20Hey!

27:21Hey!

27:22Hey!

27:23Hey!

27:24Hey!

27:25Hey!

27:26Hey!

27:27Hey!

27:28Hey!

27:29Hey!

27:30Hey!

27:31Hey!

27:32Get that one!

27:33After him!

27:34Right, coach!

27:35Hey!

27:36Hey!

27:37Hey!

27:38Hey!

27:39Hey!

27:40Hold that.

27:41Stop!

27:42The police!

27:43Hold that.

27:44Hold that up.

27:45Hold that.

27:47Hold your locket off.

27:48Hold that.

27:49Hold that!

27:50Hold it.

27:51Hold that.

27:52Hold the police.

27:53Come on!

27:54Hold that.

27:55Hold on.

27:56Come on!

27:57Oh!

28:02What else I can do for you, Gav?

28:04Get the old man upstairs.

28:05Just a minute! Who the hell are you?

28:07And him!

28:08Hey! Hey, man! Get the police!

28:11Hold on.

28:13Sergeant Carter!

28:18I thought we didn't say anything about the squad being involved in it.

28:21Get him to the ambulance.

28:22Yeah, ambulance.

28:23Please and ambulance.

28:25All right, sir?

28:37All right, Dick here.

28:38Where have you been?

28:39There seems to be some sort of asshole down in the pub.

28:41What do you mean? Does it hold the land?

28:45Well, I don't know.

28:46I mean, it's just some kind of fight, punch-up down in the pub.

28:48Two fellas run out, went round the back. One of them got punched stupid.

28:51That's all I know.

28:53I suppose it is Saturday night, isn't it?

28:55I mean, I don't know.

28:57I've got it.

28:58No, I don't know.

28:59Yeah, I don't know.

29:00I don't know.

29:01I don't know.

29:01Go ahead, Dick.

29:02I don't know.

29:03I don't know.

29:04I don't know.

29:04Oh, man.

29:05I'm sorry, Regan. I thought you'd have had the phone pretty well covered.

29:26What do you want me to cover? The window or the phone?

29:30Hello, Regan. What's the problem?

29:32What in hell's name made you ring me here?

29:33Regan, I'm sure you have the situation under control.

29:36I want you to know what the situation is here. We now believe control is mobile.

29:39He's in some sort of vehicle.

29:41It's going to take us a few more hours yet to locate him.

29:43What?

29:44I want you to stay there until such time as we do so.

29:48I don't think we'll be needing your bottles. Get in there and help them.

29:59Hurry up with that. You've got all these to open yet.

30:03Hang a bell!

30:10I think I've found it.

30:11What about the girl?

30:12She will stay with you.

30:13I don't go for that. It's getting hot here. She might get hurt.

30:17It is essential our friends continue to believe Miss Long is in that room.

30:21Once she leaves, they're likely to become suspicious.

30:23What makes you think they're not suspicious now?

30:25Because we are able to monitor their thoughts over the radio.

30:29Well, let me know the second they decide to pull out, that's all.

30:33Regan?

30:35What was that bit about two men earlier on?

30:36The fight spread outside the pub. Eagle got nervous, that's all.

30:40But we've got triangulation on control, sir.

30:42It's the Hampstead Belsize Park area, all right?

30:45That makes sense.

30:47High ground, you know.

30:53Lord, you've got two that start to death!

30:56I must warn you that...

30:59Get him down to the station.

31:03What's the charge?

31:03Well, just hold him for the moment.

31:05Yeah, he's a bloody cop, eh?

31:06And him, too.

31:07But he started the fight!

31:09Come on, it'll do you no good to argue.

31:10He started it!

31:11Come on, lad!

31:12Listen, there's 300 pounds worth of bloody hell!

31:14Have I done it?

31:15Come on!

31:17Right, get him outside and make sure he doesn't talk to anyone.

31:20Come on, Dad.

31:20Well, we're...

31:22Come on, Dad.

31:23But the gents, she's upstairs.

31:25This is about your...

31:26Now, look, all we need to do,

31:28what we do,

31:28the dogs in the tent,

31:29I don't lie to people.

31:31Now, we don't need to talk to them.

31:33Come on, Dad.

31:41Dick here.

31:42It's all right, it's all clear.

31:43I told you, didn't I?

31:43Now, get some kip.

31:44We'll wake you at four.

31:45Four?

31:46That's right, four.

31:49Very pretty.

31:50Sling it in there.

31:51It's not what we're after.

31:55All right, Jerry.

31:56We can go home.

31:57Oh, uh...

31:58You sure you don't want me to stay, go?

31:59No.

32:02There's any word on George.

32:03Yeah, he's down in the hospital.

32:06That geezer you told him to chase out of the pub

32:07only turns out to be one of Grant's boys, doesn't he?

32:10George got jumped.

32:11Well, I hope we gave him a kick in.

32:12No, there was three of them, Gough.

32:15Oh, well.

32:16Listen, the next time you see...

32:17Yeah, yeah, not many.

32:19Look, uh...

32:20You sure you're gonna be all right here on your own?

32:21Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

32:23See you tomorrow, Jerry.

32:27Hope so, Gough.

32:29Well, what was that all about?

32:44Well, what was that all about?

32:57Are you gonna bed?

32:59Well, aren't you?

33:20Good night, Harris, love.

33:21Good night to you.

33:24Hold it. Shut up.

33:34I've got it.

33:36This is it.

33:38Hold it. Shut up.

33:46I've got it.

33:48This is it.

33:51This is it.

33:53This is it.

33:57Put the documents in the case and wait for the van.

34:22And you, Dick, give me a report on the street.

34:24Anything that moves, let me know.

34:27What do you want to do?

34:57Oh, my God.

35:27What about the street? Any problems?

35:29No, the newspaper's still out there.

35:31Newspaper? What newspaper?

35:33The newspaper at the pub. Nobody's picked it up. It's still there.

35:35And the milk's there, too.

35:37Well, where's that bloody landlord then?

35:42Watch what you're doing with that case.

35:54All cars from MP, out.

35:57The newspaper at number two.

36:01And your location is all side over.

36:07Jim, Jim. I've heard no word from the landlord all night.

36:09And the people are still outside the pub. Jim, Jim!

36:12Yes, Jim here. We're out of the bank. I'm ready to go.

36:15Now, listen, the landlord's unreliable.

36:17He may be about to shop us. I want him to be found and silenced.

36:20Send two men over the roof and you go through the bar.

36:22Get that landlord fast!

36:24Got it. Georgie?

36:26Yeah?

36:27Get up on that roof. You and Dick come down through the window.

36:30I'm going up through the hatch. We'll meet up in the barn.

36:32Right.

36:34Georgie?

36:35Yeah?

36:36Don't move till you see the van.

36:38Right.

36:40Dick, I'm setting a man up to you. Get into that pub and find that landlord.

36:43What was that about newspapers on the roof?

36:45They didn't catch us.

36:46It's not what they say, sir. It's the frequency.

36:48It must go wrong now.

36:49Once we get locked into that...

36:51Hello? Arthur?

36:52No, I was just calling you.

36:55That's definite, is it?

36:57Have we got him?

36:59We have, sir.

37:01I'm sorry.

37:02I was just calling you.

37:03We'll be here, sir.

37:04It's just calling you.

37:05You're just calling you.

37:06Oh, my God.

37:36Hello? Inspector Regan, please. Hello?

37:55Put your clothes on.

37:56Hello, Regan.

37:57Oh, it's you. When are they coming out?

38:00The situation here, Regan, is that I've decided to charge the landlord.

38:03It's too risky to let him go, you understand?

38:05Well, you don't have to worry about him.

38:06I wasn't worried about him.

38:08You'll also be glad to know, Regan, that we've located control.

38:11And, in fact, I am leaving now to supervise that end of the operation.

38:15It's imperative we pick him up as soon as possible.

38:18When are they coming out?

38:20According to our latest information, five past eight.

38:23Well, that's in ten minutes.

38:24Precisely.

38:25Iris and me are coming out now.

38:27No, don't do that.

38:28You'll be spotted by their man on the roof. He's still up there, you know.

38:30Well, why don't you bloody well nick him, then?

38:33Because I don't want a vulgar battle going all over Wollstone Gardens with people shooting at each other and consequent loss of life.

38:39Worse still, I don't want Chummy bolting back into the bank.

38:43Or it'll take a week to winkle her mouth with consequent loss of face.

38:46Well, what are you going to do?

38:48The moment they leave, we'll move in.

38:50Now, once we're in the bank, Chummy's line of retreat is cut off.

38:53We will have no option but to use his getaway cars, which means going down Ledbury Street.

38:58Now, that's all open ground.

39:00We have our sharpshooters in place.

39:03That's a terrific idea, Superintendent.

39:06What about us?

39:08Lie low.

39:09Try the cellars.

39:10Now, you listen to me.

39:11There's somebody already in those cellars.

39:13That would tie in with Sergeant Jelinek's theory.

39:15Which is what?

39:16That they're not coming over the roofs.

39:18They're coming through the cellars.

39:19Look, you're monitoring the radio.

39:22Are they coming over the roofs or are they coming through the cellars?

39:25Ah, yes, I see what you mean, Regan.

39:28If you go into the cellars and they come out that way, the game is blown.

39:33That's not all that'll be blown.

39:36Iris, come on.

39:38Out.

39:38Now.

39:49I'm going to go into the cellars.

40:19Jim, don't go up to that barn until the van arrives.

40:33Now, hello, three.

40:35Three.

40:36Where are you now?

40:37Just turned into Wollstone Gardens.

40:41What are you doing?

40:42I am trying to get this barrel under this trap door.

40:50There's no answer to that.

40:51Exactly.

40:52Don't just stand there.

40:53Give me a hand.

40:55When are you going to get home?

40:55What are you going to tell the neighbours?

40:57That it fell off the back of a lorry?

40:58Give me a hand.

40:59For God's sake, they're coming up this way.

41:01I thought they were coming through my room.

41:03No, they're not.

41:05Why don't you get dressed, Iris?

41:13What do you want me to do?

41:15Push or get dressed?

41:18Get dressed.

41:20All right.

41:22What do you think I should wear?

41:24Something inexpensive because of the bullet holes?

41:26Or something dark so it doesn't show the blood?

41:29That's not funny.

41:30You're getting hysterical.

41:32I am not getting hysterical.

41:33I am terrified.

41:35Pass in the bank.

41:36Get in there.

41:38Right.

42:00Quiet.

42:09Forget about getting dressed.

42:11I don't want you out of my sight.

42:12All right?

42:12Excuse me.

42:13Which is the best place to hide?

42:17Jack.

42:19Get down.

42:22What is going on?

42:24That's their truck outside.

42:26They're coming out of the bank through the cellars under here.

42:28Shut up.

42:34That's the van outside now.

42:36Get ready to open the street trap door.

42:38I'm going upstairs.

42:52They'll bring the stuff straight up into the street with any luck.

42:54With luck, they'll bring the beer into the pub.

42:56Yeah, and they didn't do all this without the knowledge of the landlord, and he isn't here anymore.

42:59So when's that going to penetrate the thick skulls?

43:03You haven't brought the milk in, have you?

43:06No.

43:07Or the newspapers?

43:09No.

43:12This leads up to the bar, but the bloody thing won't open.

43:15Go on, get in the van.

43:19Right.

43:22Right, now.

43:23One more.

43:28What?

43:30Howkay?

43:30What?

43:39What?

43:40What?

43:40Jack!

44:01Jack!

44:03Jack, come back!

44:10Jack!

44:12Jack!

44:15Jack!

44:20Jack!

44:22Jack!

44:24Jack!

44:26Jack!

44:28Jack!

44:30Jack!

44:32Jack!

44:34Jack!

44:36Inspector Regan, please.

44:38Yeah.

44:40Message from the super, sir.

44:42Wants to warn you there are two armed men coming over the roof.

44:55Jack!

44:57His blood!

44:59Jack!

45:00Jack!

45:01Jack!

45:02Jack!

45:03Jack!

45:04Oh, my God!

45:05Oh, my God!

45:23I'm giving you permission to see the inspector now, provided you don't disturb them, right?

45:26Oh, thank you, sir.

45:27Oh, thank you, sir.

45:28Thank you, sir.

45:31Thank you, sir.

45:32Lieutenant, apart from the inspector's unfortunate accident, the operation was success.

45:36Oh, total, sir.

45:37Yes, we're going through the stolen valuables now and informing the owners one by one.

45:41Were they after one particular thing?

45:45No comment.

45:46Come on, sir, gentlemen.

45:47Thank you, nurse.

45:49Good morning, Jack.

45:50How are you?

45:51Morning, sir.

45:52Now, I'm sitting here on the, uh, side of the bed, right?

45:53You can get them two shut, can't you?

45:54Uh, on the foreground?

45:55We'd like to see the wound, sir.

45:56Where exactly was it wounded?

45:57Yes, where is your wound, Jack?

45:58You're sitting on it.

45:59Oh!

46:00Well, you can always widen your angle.

46:01Oh, it's a leg wound, is it?

46:02Yes, it's a leg wound.

46:03Can we have something more dramatic, like, you know, a bandage round the head or arming plaster?

46:07Why not?

46:08I'm surprised you're not at the palace collecting another medal.

46:10Very funny, Jack.

46:11You'll be pleased to know we got them all from the big fella himself right down the line.

46:13The lock.

46:14The lock.

46:15The lock.

46:16The lock.

46:17The lock.

46:18The lock.

46:19The lock.

46:20The lock.

46:21The lock.

46:22The lock.

46:23The lock.

46:24The lock.

46:25The lock.

46:26The lock.

46:27The lock.

46:28The lock.

46:29The lock.

46:30The lock.

46:31The lock.

46:32The lock.

46:33The lock.

46:34The lock.

46:35The lock.

46:36The lock.

46:37Yeah.

46:38The lock.

46:39The lock.

46:40So, what were they after?

46:41I mean, what did you find on him, after you'd so courageously surrounded him with half

46:42the men three streets away from the scene of the crime?

46:44Jewels, Kruger Rams, and certain documents of a highly political nature.

46:50We're charging high risk.

46:53Of course.

46:54Conspiracy.

46:56Oh, no way.

46:58That girl saved my life.

47:00Well, I asked the judge to take that into consideration.

47:02Yeah, well, here's something you should take into consideration.

47:06I might marry her in prison at the beginning of the trial.

47:10Now, that would really keep me off the front pages, wouldn't it?

47:13Yeah, we could hold hands across the witness box,

47:16kiss through the bars of the Black Mariah.

47:20Yeah, I reckon we could hog the headlines for a whole month.

47:23You'd be nowhere.

47:25You're not serious.

47:26Well, in that case, you'll be all right, won't you?

47:29Of course, I could speak to the DOPP's office,

47:32see if they could drop the charges against her.

47:36Oh, yes, you could, couldn't you?

47:39I can't promise anything.

47:41Oh, no, of course you can't.

47:44I'll do my best.

47:47Oh, you will.

47:48I know you will.

47:50Excuse me, Superintendent.

47:52Yes, if you could make that look together,

47:54it's an old comrade's sake.

47:55This is for the Badger Curry series.

47:57Yes, why not?

47:58Right.

47:59Secret evidence is obviously very dangerous.

48:01Wet evidence is dangerous.

48:03Can I have my own suspicion, please?
