...thinking everyone else

is cheating, too.

This doesn't help.

lt helps.

lt helps a little.

How about that?

l'm at the stage where

l settle for a little.

You wouldn't settle for a little,

would you, Paul?

You're big.

l'm going back to bed.

How big are you, Paul?

l'm talking about the gun...

...in the drawer, in the bedroom.

- What's the gun for, Paul?

- The gun is nothing.

You don't need a gun...

...to go straight.

- It's nothing.

- Don't lie, Paul!

- Say it!

- Kate.

You never used to need a gun.

- No, you used to---

- SHUT UP!

Darling.

You tell me what the gun's for...

...and I'll come back to bed.

[DEEP SlGHlNG]

Oh, what's it for, Paul?

Because l'm not going back inside.

Not again.

Dave?

There's a grey car coming.

An Austin.

SHUT UP!

Shout it from the bloody rooftops.

Be glad when we've got the radios.

- Thanks, Ken.

- How's it going?

- I haven't seen those sleeping bags.

- They're in the back of the Austin.

KEEP YOUR BLOODY GLOVES ON!!!

l've put the call through

on this line, sir.

Thank you.

Hello.

lsabella's on her way.

And she's well up to weight.

Good.

Keep your messages brief.

Remember...

...while they're not in use they

can't be traced.

Any questions?

[MUTTERING]

No.

Yeah, where's the rest

of the crew?

They'll be here.

l hope they're not comin' by train!

lf there are no more...

...serious questions, we'll get

into position.

ls that you, Doctor?

[OVER TELEPHONE] CLIFTON:

"The baby arrived on time and is well up to weight."

Come on, come on.

We don't move till we get the word.

Here he comes.

Hello, Number One. Are you

receiving me? Over.

Receiving you, Number Two.

l'm in position and clear.

[POLICE RADIO lN THE BACKGROUND]

Anything from the police?

Just routine.

Gimme the walkie-talkie.

Everything all right?

The telephone lines to the houses

have been cut.

They should be here to fix the signal

phone any moment.

l telephoned our man in Ireland.

He'll fly in and pick up our share...

...of the money as soon as

l let him know.

Wish we were going out

with it tonight.

ls Kate joining you afterwards?

Ben's boys giving you any trouble?

No. They seem to be good workers.

You left Robinson back

at the bunker.

Yeah.

He can chew his nails till we get

back with the money.

l'll get back to the bridge.

Out of sight, down the road.

What do you make of this?

- Bedford.

- Bedford, eh?

What did you put in 'ere?

- It's lovely.

- We all hate it.

lt's horrible.

Have some Settlers.

Not me, gives me indigestion.

Operator, I've been trying to call

Monarch Oh-One-Oh-Eight...

...and it seems to be out of order.

Could, could you, um...

...help me, please? It's very,

very important.

[OPERATOR]

"Would you hang on a minute, please?"

[OPERATOR]

"Scotland Yard? That Monarch number is..."

[OPERATOR]

"...being called. We are tracing it..."

[OPERATOR] "...but I thought you might be

interested in speaking to the caller."

Yes, we're very interested.

Thank you for passing it on.

Hello. This is the Exchange Supervisor.

Uh, who are you calling?

l'm...

...I've been trying to call

Mrs Robinson.

Monarch Oh-One-Oh-Eight.

And it seems to be out of order.

Could you have the line...

...tested for me, please?

lt's very urgent.

Yes. Certainly, sir.

Uh, what is your number?

Well, I'm calling you from...

[SCOTLAND YARD ON PHONE]

Hello?

Hello, sir.

What number are you speaking from?

She's comin'.

[OVER WALKIE-TALKIE]

She's comin'.

SHE'S PASSING ME NOW!

Better not be bloody late tonight.

WHAT'S UP, MATE?

HOW LONG YOU GONNA BE HERE?

WHAT?

What was that?

What was what?

Sounded like air escaping.

Where's our driver?

What's the matter?

Different.

lt-lt won't start.

You were paid to drive!

Get out of it!

Six minutes gone - nineteen

minutes to go.

We're behind schedule.

Start her up...

...and keep going, but slowly.

You can go a bit faster.

And keep your eyes out

for a marker.

A red marker, further

down the line.

Keep your eyes down!

And stop when I tell you.

And when I say stop, you stop -

or you'll get some more.

What's the chance of getting

some tea?

lt's coming.

GET DOWN!

ON THE FLOOR!

- Get them down.

- ON THE FLOOR!

ALL ON THE FLOOR!

Come on! Outside - into line.

Dead on time.

How much longer have we got?

About five minutes.

Hold it!

Right!

- Right, that's it. Out!

- There's only a few left!

Time's up! Out!

Don't move for half an hour.

We're leaving a man behind.

Anybody moves will be killed.

lf you have any trouble - shoot!

No, the mail train hasn't come

through here yet.

Well, if your lights are at red,

it must still be in section.

Mine are all at green.

Yes, everything seems to

be all right here.

All right, I'll check again.

Come on, let's 'ave yer!

Will you put them all in

one pile, please?

Are there any more?

No, only this one down 'ere.

l want one... one at a

time over here...

...and don't open more

than one at a time.

- All right, come on, get in. Up, up.

- That's it.

We'll be back in forty-five minutes.

Right, I'll set up something

to occupy the law.

You all know where to go.

Stick to your routes, and

no speeding.

Hello. Langdon.

Who?

Oh, yeah, yeah. Have they

traced the call?

ls that the best they can do?

Yes, I agree. lt could be Robinson.

Yeah, l'll get up there straight away.

Put them round the back!

Round the back!

Seven thousand pounds,

in new notes.

As agreed.

This calls for a celebration.

There shouldn't be any fingerprints

on the vehicles...

...but someone may have

been careless.

Drink?

No.

Don't worry, Paul...

...I'll have them cleaned up.

When do you want them?

ln about three days.

l'll phone you.

lt depends when you're pulling

the job, I suppose.

The less you know, the better.

[POLICE RADIO]

"Hello, Central Four Three?"

[POLICE RADIO]

"Urgent message, MP."

[POLICE RADIO]

"Over."

Central Four Three receiving you,

loud and clear.

[POLICE RADIO]

"Central Four Three..."

[POLICE RADIO]

"...message addressed, Inspector Langdon..."

[POLICE RADIO]

"...Squad Office"

[POLICE RADIO] "Proceed, Partington

Bridge and meet with..."

[POLICE RADIO]

"...county CID."

- [POLICE RADIO] "Origin: Oh-Seven-Three-Five---"

- What's Langdon doin' up 'ere?

Jack's talked.

Jack wouldn't tell a policeman the time.

[MEN TALKlNG IN THE BACKGROUND]

That's if they can remember it.

No one's talked!

The local police called the Squad in.

They're out of their depth.

Come on, Robinson.

Let's be 'avin' yer!

[MEN TALKlNG IN THE BACKGROUND]

l wanna take her to Paris.

- Bless her.

- Yeah.

A hundred thousand pounds

of this is yours.

Something wrong with the notes?

Some of the fivers are

rejects, of course.

Burn them yourself, along

with the wrappers.

Yeah...

...as soon as l'm through

with this batch.

Still worried about your wife?

Well... if only l could talk with her.

Anyone calling Monarch Oh-One-Oh-Eight

will be traced.

They're bound to be tapping the line.
