(Harry grunting)

(Breathing heavily)

(Reporter on TV) Iraq has

increased the level of its oil reserves

by 24 % since Saddam Hussein

was removed.

The country has 133.1 billion barrels

of extractable oil

up from 115 billion barrels

estimated previously.

- Under Saddam Hussein...

- F***ing b*tch!

- ...political isolation meant

little new exploratory work

was undertaken.

Closer to home, with the government

way ahead in the opinion polls,

the focus of debate in

the upcoming general election today

switched from the economy

to the domestic terror threat.

(Ticking)

The government claims

that domestic terror groups

fractured since

Osama Bin Laden's death,

and due to increased cooperation

with key Middle...

Unbelievable!

People have no idea about

the sh*t storm that's about to go down.

Is this thing real?

Don't play with it.

Have I lost weight?

Was gonna say you look different.

I've lost weight. I mean, I feel good.

(Electronic lock beeps)

It's 50 short.

(Door closes)

Get her out of here.

What about my money?

Get your hands off me.

Don't touch me!

You're still fat, Harry.

- Get off!

- B*tch.

(Tires screech)

Yeah.

OK. Now.

Follow them.

Take a left here,

head to the center of town.

I'm going in.

There's too many people.

They're gonna go upstairs, find there's

no one there and that'll be it.

No.

Give me your f***ing gun.

Wait here.

(Woman gasps)

Excuse me, sir.

(People shouting)

Move!

(People screaming)

(Groaning)

(Harry grunts)

(Trigger clicking)

Ah! (Groans)

- (Bone crunching)

- (Screaming)

(Alarm rings)

(Woman crying)

(Camera shutter clicking)

(Grunts)

He never stated his destination?

He gave his driver instructions

as we went along.

He never suspected

who you worked for?

No.

The Semtex?

It was taken.

I placed a tracer in one of the blocks

the night before.

The tracer went offline

when the attack took place.

We're tying to kick-start it

remotely now.

The perpetrators knew

we were gonna be there at that time.

They knew where we were going.

And you didn't stop them?

Perhaps you don't

belong here any more.

So we've no idea to whom

the Semtex was to be delivered?

No.

You and I, Charlotte, in five.

(Door closes)

Difficult times.

He's getting pressures from on high.

You did what you could, Ewan.

Charlotte?

(Chuckles) Oh.

Present from my ex-husband.

Get that seen to and get some rest.

(Doorbell ringing)

(Unlocking door)

(Woman) On my break.

I've got two minutes left.

No, I'm not smoking.

I'm not inhaling, I'm walking.

I'm out of breath

cos I had to rush back from lunch.

Tuna sandwich.

Tuna sandwich and some crisps,

and a chocolate biscuit

and a coffee, no sugar.

Hey, we gonna go for drinks? Make it...

about quarter past, yeah?

How's Dad? And the fence?

The garden fence.

Just tell him to wait

and I'll help him the next time I'm up

because his back won't hold up.

I'll get time off. It's not a problem.

I don't know when.

I'll let you know when I know.

Hey, one minute.

It's a good job. Gives me time to drink.

Think, I said think!

About whatever. I've got my degree,

I can do what I want.

Look, I've gotta go, I'm late.

Yep, I love you too.

Bye. Bye, bye, bye.

Sorry.

See ya.

Can I help you, sir? Table for one?

Almost there.

How did you do it?

Slipped.

Doing something strenuous?

Your girlfriend will love the scar.

Hey.

Wife.

Come back in two days,

take the stitches out.

Might still be here.

Back in a minute with some painkillers.

Yeah.

(Reporter on TV) It's been confirmed

that a suicide bombing

occurred earlier today

at 12:
30 in the busy

South London restaurant, Driscoll's.

With currently confirmed casualties

of 20

and with more understood

to be injured.

The restaurant was full

of lunchtime customers,

including a large meeting being held

by the 2004 Committee,

an organization which had

Middle East energy interests

and championed the Iraq war.

Three backbench MPs were members.

All are believed

to be amongst the fatalities.

(Scott) The same Semtex that was

stolen was used in the bombing.

An element in Whitehall feels that

Obama's inclusive doctrine

has spread across the Atlantic

and has made us complacent.

They're pushing for sweeping changes.

If they discover that the Semtex

was being monitored by us

and that we could have stopped it...

I don't need to tell you

the repercussions for this government,

especially with the election looming.

The clock is ticking on all of us.

It's just you and I here, Charlotte.

What can you do for me?

We are here to remember

Corporal Peter Walcott Tiernan,

taken from us in the service of Queen

and county in Afghanistan.

He bravely answered his county's call,

and leaves a loving wife, Louise,

his brothers, lan and Daniel,

and his mother, Margaret.

It's at times like these that

we must find strength and peace

in the memories

of what he meant to us,

an honorable son and brother.

(Cane clatters)

He was older than his 25 years

and was the one his family relied upon

since losing their father at an early age.

He undertook his responsibilities

with dignity and strength

and maintained a strong family bond.

(Organ playing)

(Congregation singing hymn)

Remember he said

he had a trial for United?

He said he missed out

cos he was too fast.

(Chuckles)

You remember, sir?

Yeah, I remember.

Last letter I got from him, he...

He said the regiment

weren't the same since you left.

- How are you, mate?

- How do I look like I am?

Cold makes it hurt like a bastard.

I can't sleep properly.

What happened there?

Ah, some stupid accident.

- Is that your wife?

- Yeah.

Thinks I'm some sort of invalid.

She can't stop fussing.

You should be thankful.

See that bomb they set off in London?

It was on the news.

It never ends. None of it.

What was the point of Pete dying, sir?

Dying in some shithole county

for nothing.

- What was the f***ing point?

- What's the matter with you?

Have some respect for him,

for his family.

You got hurt, but you're here.

You're alive.

Listen to me,

We move on.

What's here and now,

that's all that matters, all right?

Go back to your wife.

If you need help,

you can always find me.

We stick together, all of us.

Have you moved on, sir?

From what happened?

(Child giggling)

(Mobile phone ringing)

Hello?

(Charotte) A car will be downstairs

in 15 minutes.

I'm Mark.

Baby daughter.

Take the path through the wood.

You'll find her at the other end.

Bit of a walk.

You've seen the news.

Semtex was used. You understand?

Perpetrator?

It was strapped to his jacket,

self-detonated.

No details on who he was.

CNN have no clear images.

There's nothing left of him.

We're bound by procedure.

In this situation,

we cannot afford those constraints.

This is off-reservation.

It's why you're at my home.

I want you to find who's responsible

and stop him

in whatever way you feel fit.

Let it be done quickly.

It'll be you and Mark.
