Did you see the driver?

Sshhh.

Contact lost with suspect.

Unable to continue pursuit.

We've crashed outside

Would you recognise that driver?

What?

[CRYlNG CHlLDREN]

Would you recognise the driver?

Yes, of course I'd recognise

the bastard!

- Bye, Kate. l'll see you this evening.

- What time?

- Oh, I shouldn't be late.

- All right.

lf anything crops up I'll phone you.

All right.

Bye bye.

- I'll be right with you.

- You'll never be right with me, Jack!

Hello, George.

What can I do for you?

l'd like a little chat about a car.

Oh?

Talk about cars all day,

if you like?

A silver Jag?

- Thinking of buying it?

- No.

No, I, er...

...I was just wondering who

was driving it.

Ah. Someone pulled a job, eh?

No.

No, not me, Inspector.

l jacked that lot in - it's a...

...it's a mug's game, isn't it?

Well, I mean, there's no point...

...now I've got the job...

- ...and the business.

- How is business?

Can't complain.

ls, er...

...is he with you..?

Never saw him in my life before.

Got a warrant, lnspector?

What? For a social call?

This bloke's a better actor

than Mickey Mouse.

Well, er...

...I'll be seein' yer, Jack.

Six-Oh-Three-Eight-Seven-Four-Two.

Scotland Yard here.

Sergeant!

- Your call on number three.

- Oh, thanks.

Right, she's already made three

insurance claims.

Get onto Bedford, see ifthey've

got anything on her.

Right you are, guv'nor.

George. Go carefully, eh?

Remember who her father is.

- Well?

- Nothing.

- Still think Jack's the driver?

- That's my best guess.

This is the Squad, Inspector Langdon.

We deal in evidence and

arrests, not guesses.

l think you're right about him.

He's our man - but we've got to...

...get evidence and we've got

to make it stick.

You've got to make it stick!

Yes, sir.

That was a close one

yesterday, love.

Mmm.

Did you see the papers?

- Eighty-five thousand quid?

- Nah.

Not a penny over seventy-five...

...and that's trade valuation.

Not what we got.

Yeah... they're all at it.

- Where's Paul?

- He'll be here.

l've had the law round.

That was quick! Who was it?

Langdon.

Hi.

Evening.

Jack's had callers. The Squad.

Yeah. Langdon... a try-on.

Does he know anything?

- What? Him?

- Does he know anything?

Of course not!

Well, let's keep it that way.

Here's how it is, then.

We've got the capital now

for the investment.

We all agree to go ahead?

- Yep.

- Yeah.

Well, why don't we share out in

the usual way? I mean...

...we're doing all right.

l want us to do better, Frank.

l dunno.

lf there's one thing l know...

...money breeds money.

Huh, mine must be on the pill.

All right, Frank - I'll pay you off.

l'll find another firm that's interested...

...in three or four million pounds.

Four million! Bloody hell!

Frank?

l'm interested.

Jack?

Yeah, yeah. Count me in.

The job, Paul?

lt's a night mail train.

From Glasgow to London.

The Tuesday after the holiday.

What?

- Not till after the holiday?

- Exactly.

The banks will have been closed...

...from midday Saturday...

...till Tuesday morning.

There'll be that much more

money on the train.

What happens to the money afterwards?

A friend of ours flies it out of the

country within the hour.

Ahh!

[CHUCKLlNG]

Where do we share out?

Switzerland?

Share's delivered wherever you like.

l know where l want mine delivered.

Okay?

There's just one more thing.

This is the big one - the biggest.

From now until we finish

the job, I want no...

...trouble with the law.

You understand, Jack?

Me?

l'll be as good as gold.

We've got nothing to worry

about then, have we?

Bloke askin' for you, Mr Aitken.

- What sort of bloke?

- A bloke!

How much you getting for these?

- Shopping, Inspector?

- Not today.

You know who I am, Aitken?

l'm making enquiries into a...

...robbery at Northumberland

Avenue - ten days ago.

l have reason to believe you

can be of assistance.

l must ask you if you're willing...

...to be put up for an identity parade.

We're very formal all of a sudden.

ls this an invitation?

Would you rather it were printed?

Uh, I've got to go out...

...but I'll be back before
