Garden's looking lovely, Henry----
We're taking care of it for you
Got a gardener in especially
Frank called in the other night
Asked after you
Everybody sends their love
Mum's going to Spain again this year
Same villa she had last year
Said she prefers that to an hotel
Being her own boss, like
And, Henry
she wishes you could be with us
Well, we all do
Things aren't too bad in here are they?
I'm greasing enough palms
Nobody leaning on you, is there?
I want out, Charley
Henry
Out, Charley, out
How is he, Charley?
Still running the show in there, is he?
till got the screws jumping?
He's not going to make it
His eyes, I know that look
We've got to get him out
But, Charley, he's top security wing, there's no chance
Not the old way, no
But they do things different these days
Like this
Oi! What do you think...
Right, let's be having you
We did it! By God, we pulled it off
Get down
Over there and face the wall

Bodie, Doyle
Something that might interest us
Then it must be death or disaster
Certainly death. And if it's tied into an arms robbery, it could be disaster
You heard what the gentleman said
That's no gentleman, that's George Cowley
And it isn't even Saint Valentine's Day
I know this one
Thomas Patrick Murphy. Liverpool Irish
Been looking for him
Yeh, but someone found him first
Yeh, didn't they, though
So?
I looked it over
Well, that won't tell us much, will it?
Did you get the plans of the place?
Yeh
Charley, it'll take an army
That's what we've got, haven't we?
An army?
What do we know?
Six Webleys, calibre .44, twenty Armalite rifles with ammunition to match
and--wait for it--2 boxes of grenades, 16 to a box and every one a big bang
Great
Nice clear view of the street
Nothing overlooking. It's lovely
What about the police uniforms?
They're arranged
Mugs
You were in Belfast, weren't you?
Yup
But if you think you're going to draw me in on that one, forget it
Strictly keeping the peace
Whose peace?
And a head on my shoulders
Grenades?
Grenades
Jesus
Billy
He's getting deaf as well as simple
Friday, then
And a hand-picked squad
We'll swap ideas on that. Later tonight
CI5. Criminal Intelligence
The Action Squad. The Big A. The Squad
All right, so we may have half a dozen names, but only one job
To see that no one messes on our doorstep
And that means preventive detection, preventive action
"To detect, deter and prevent, and or take suitable action and or actions-
-against those transgressors against the law outside the norm of criminal activity
To contain and render ineffective such by whatever means necessary"
That's our official brief:
By any means necessary
That's our loophole
Now I'll tell you *my* interpretation, I'll tell you what it's really going to be like
You'll be paired off
And from then on, you're the Bisto Kids
The slightest whiff of anything and you move in
Shake 'em down, crush 'em before they even start to grow, like an alley fight
And that's what this is, an alley fight
So kick him in the goolies first
Do unto others now what they're still thinking about
Oh, there'll be squeals
And once in a while
you'll turn a law abiding citizen into an authority hating anarchist
There'll be squeals and letters to MPs
But that's the price they have, and we have
to pay to keep this island clean and smelling-
even if ever so faintly of roses and lavender
But you make a mistake like that and I'll back you to the hilt
But make the other kind of mistake
the kind that ends up with innocent people bleeding all over the High Street
and the only backing you'll get is with my boot and right out of this organisation
Any questions?
Uhm. Rank, sir?
Eh?
If we are to be paired up, obviously one of us has to be senior to the other
Obviously? Why obviously?
Two fellows on the roof arguing who's in charge, they'll both get shot
You're a team, like footballers are a team
They don't have conferences in front of goal, do they?
Too bloody right they don't
First one there kicks the ball
Have anything to discuss, do it before or after the game
Preferably after
Anything else?
Right. See you all back here after lunch
Enjoy the lecture?
Oh, we always do, sir, but...
But what, Bodie?
Oh, a bit heavy, sir. Fascist overtones
Fascist?
What do you know about...?
Fight fire with fire
Where do you think he got that leg?
Spain
It had better be important, you know my feelings
Our place of work is out on the street
Any man standing around here isn't doing his job
Think it's quite important
Grenades
Bye-bye
Well, do you think you might see me there, then?
Yeah, I hope so. I might be meeting Phil, too
Oh, really? I might ask Peter
Yeah, all right. Should be a good evening
Hmm. Well, if you could come along before?
All right, yeah. I'll meet you there, shall I?
All right
Bye-bye
Emma
No, I'm plumping for a bank raid
Why not another terrorist group?
Because the Irish group knocked over the Army base
and less than a couple of hours later, they got knocked over themselves
Now, you're not telling me another terrorist group knocked over the Irish lot?
Yes, Doyle, that's how I'd see it
Look, someone knew about the Army raid, right?
They knew enough to be sitting there -
-waiting for the Irish lot when they arrived with the loot
They knew and we didn't
And who sometimes knows more than we do?
Criminals. They're setting up a bank raid. It's the guns they were after
The grenades were just an unexpected bonus
That's comforting
If it's true
Cowley
Yes?
Where?
Right
Dartingford Hospital
One of your grenades has just turned up
Bodie. This is Doyle. Where is he?
There
Yeh. Could be our man
He's holding a Webley .44 along with -
-a 38B cup
You what?
Here, have a look at that. There's wandering hands with a vengeance for you
Oh, nice
What about those buildings up there. Can we get above him?
We tried that. He's too good a shot
What do we know?
William Turner. He was a patient here two years ago
What'd they do, take out the wrong appendix?
Who's the girl?
A nurse. Emma Bolding
Does she know him?
Nope
Ah, that's bad
Oh, I don't know. She might keep him talking anyway
I wouldn't rely on it
A hand grenade down her bra can be a new experience for a girl
What does he want?
To see Dr Brook, his psychiatrist
We've sent for him
Does he know that?
Well, there seemed no point
You keep him talking, keep him interested, that's the point
Turner
Turner. Is that his name?
I told you
Is that the name he answers to?
I dunno. Someone said Billy
Billy, right. Billy
Billy Turner! Just want to tell you we're doing everything we can
We've sent for Dr Brook and he's on his way. Do you understand, Billy?
Whole bloody road show, he's the star, and he doesn't want to answer
So, he's not a show off
No, no, he's introverted
And a pound gets you a penny he was being treated at this place for depression
Depressives get suicidal
Dr Brook's here
William Turner, Billy
Yes, I remember him well
About two years ago. He was sent to me by his probation officer
A depressive
I remember him very well indeed
Why?
Two years ago. You must have seen four or five hundred patients since then
What's different about him?
It's because he tried to kill me
It's unusual. Frequently
the link between a patient and a psychiatrist is a sublime one
They form attachment
But not with Billy
Yes, but in the wholly negative sense
He blamed me for his being here
So why does he want to see you now?
I couldn't say. I could guess
Doctor
he's got a grenade shoved down a nurse's cleavage and a loaded gun at her head
So, guess
Could he still want you dead?
It's very possible, yes
I mean Billy's mind is a...
No, if that's what he's demanding, then I will see him
No, Doctor
But if those are his terms, what are you going to do?
You ever wear a white coat?
Hm?
Has Billy ever seen you in a white coat?
Yes. A few times, conducting physical examinations, I might have worn one
So he might associate it with you
Yes, he might, but I don't see what...
I want one white coat
You see that garbage skip by the wall?
Get your boys to hump it as close to Billy as they can
Right
Thank you
All you need now is a wig
Bodie
Billy
Dr Brook is here. In just a few minutes, he's coming over to speak to you, Billy
He's coming right over there to talk to you face to face
Bodie...
Listen, it's a stalemate, right?
Now, you give him what he wants and then what?
He'll shoot Brook and blow himself up
We don't know that
Yeah, we don't not know that, do we?
The right technique is to keep him talking, play him, tire him out
Suppose his left hand tires first?
Go on
It's about four pounds pressure to keep a hand grenade lever clamped down
Not much, just four pounds
But, after an hour, it feels like eight
and then twelve, and then cramp sets in
And then suddenly it's raining Nurse Emma Bolding
All right
Billy
Billy. Dr Brook is here
He's right here beside me. Billy
He's coming over to see you. He's coming over all on his own, Billy, to see you
You'll know him as soon as you see him
You'll know him by his white coat
Listen, soon as I get out there, get their heads down and keep them down
If that grenade's one of ours, it's an X4A
Ten seconds fuse if it's Primed...
Primed right. Yeh. If
Ah. Samuel Becket'd like that
Life in a word--if
Don't know how far he's going to let me get before he twigs
Can you take him?
Bodie
Can you bloody take him?
Yeah, I can bloody take him
I know you can. Just gives a man confidence to have it confirmed
Billy, Dr Brook is coming out now
All right?
Okay
Your lucky day, Nurse Bolding
He doesn't often do that
Henry
I'm springing you, Henry. Do you hear me?
I'm getting you out of here
Just in time for the weekend. You'll be out on your way to somewhere sunny
You don't have to do a thing, just sit there and wait for them to open the gates
Mum sends her love
<There was an incident -
I don't think he believed me -at Dartingford Hospital->
Still, it gave him a bit of a boost
<-Billy Turner attacked one of the nurses->
<-and held her hostage with the threat of a hand grenade>
<-was one of a number stolen earlier in the week->
<-along with other weapons from -
Move. Move an army depot>
That Billy. That mother's...
We'll have to keep out of the way till Friday
That Billy. That bloody Billy
They won't tie him in with us. Not right away
But they will when they start sweating him
I bet your eyes fell out on your cheeks, didn't they?
I told you it was impersonal. Like doctor and patient
Ah. How many doctors have you known?
Impersonal. Listen
I shacked up with a doctor in East Africa and she was an absolute raver
Hmm
Every time we did it, she took my pulse
To see if you were still alive?
To see how soon I'd be ready to do it again
She said I was a perfect physical specimen
Oh, well, you know, I mean--East Africa
She was probably comparing you to the red-arsed baboon
C'mon, Doyle, level with me. You know these art classes you used to go to?
Hmm
The life classes. You mean to say, it didn't disturb you anywhere at all?
You'd have to be crotchless
No, no, it was impersonal
They were just models
Bet if a bird posed nude with an apple, you painted the apple
Yeah
No, they were nice girls
All girls are nice girls as long as they're under fifty, still warm and come across
William Turner
A lot of small form but mainly GBH to order
Ah, heavy boy for hire
Doctor's certificate. He's fit for interrogation, but lay off that shoulder
Sir
Doctor's signature
Looks very like your writing, sir
That's the file copy
And lay off that shoulder
I want a lawyer
Why, son? Do you want to make a will?
He coughed
If you mean he talked, then say so
He talked, sir
Well?
Been doing odd jobs for the Turkels
Turkel?
Yeh, Charley and Henry Turkel, scourge of the East End. Terrible Twins
Oh, yes. And the grenade?
Oh, he nicked it stole it from Turkel's place
You've told the local police? They're going to turn it over?
They are going to search the place, yes, sir
Ach! Don't fence with me, Doyle
I'm too old and this leg of mine is killing me
For God's sake, have a drink, both of you
Thank you, sir
Did you have to lean on him?
Just, uh...
all we did was stimulate his imagination a bit
Anything...any...anything...Oh
Ah, thanks
You should have it out, sir
Eh?
That bullet in your leg
Oh, they can do that all right, but they can't...
can't guarantee that they won't have to take the leg with it
What would you do, eh?
Me, sir? I'd have another drink, sir
So Turkel's up to something, eh?
Did he say what?
No. Billy's too far down the ladder to know that, But, whatever it is
it's planned for Friday and concerns a top cop
Eh?
He said THE top cop. Mixed up in it in some way
Mixed up? A bent cop?
Maybe
THE top cop?
That's what he said, yes, sir
Sounds like the Chief Commissioner
Don't be so damned ridiculous. And don't you repeat that outside this office
Ah, get out, both of you. Go on
Yes, sir
You'll check him out all the same, sir?
Bodie
You did well, today, even if you did break all the rules
Rules, sir?
Broke the rules
Ah, you know the form. Dog eat dog
Ah, that's okay. As long as you're not a dog
Checked the house. It's all Mother Hubbard. Charley Turkel skipped
No papers or anything?
Oh, there's papers all right. I've got my men working on them now
They might be finished by next Christmas
But there won't be anything
Charley's a wily bird
Oh, you know him well, do you?
It helps to stay friendly
Helps what? Your bank balance?
Now, hold on
Helps with criminal information
That's what you meant to say, isn't it?
You CI5 boys think you're the cat's whiskers, don't you?
Well, at least we're at the right end of the cat
Ah, come on. We're all on the same side, remember. Go on, Sergeant
Well, it's only a small thing
That's the rumour
Ignore him. What?
Found this in the kitchen
Not from one of my boys
Police button
The top cop
And, always assuming you admit there could be such a thing, a bent top cop
Charles Turkel
Charles Turkel, you're under arrest
Bet you never thought I'd put me hand on your collar, Charley
How do I look, eh? The real thing?
A good joke, Dapper
Good joke
I really enjoyed it
Breakfast
But, I didn't order...
You would have done if you'd thought of it
Ah, you're a good girl, Betty
No, just careful
You should have got some sleep
Ah, today's Friday
I'll get some sleep when it's Saturday
Computers spew out something else?
Ah, just the crime sheets on the Turkel brothers
They're both as bad as each other
Makes you wonder why there's only one of them inside
Betty, it's been staring me in the face
Do you mind not bending the bell?
Sorry, sir
Sir? You must be blind or something
No, just, uh...diplomatic. Bodie
Hey, wait a minute
Bodie
Get out
C'mon, C'mon, handsome. Good morning
You might have phoned, you know
Yeh, I could have phoned
but I thought you'd prefer the deluxe personal service. Work
You must be Betty
He's told me a lot about you
You...
"You must be Betty"
Well, I had to say something
Not that, not to her. Her name's Claire
Yes, I know. I was doing you a favour
Huh?
Well. I've added an extra spice of jealousy to your relationship
I was getting enough spice without that
I was. Where we going?
To see the old man
I think Turkel's going to spring his brother
Take the prison? That'd be hopeless. Even with grenades, he's in top security
No, he's getting to be more subtle than that. He's learned some new tricks
If I'm right, this is an exchange job
Snatch and a swap?
Who?
A top cop. The top cop
Yeh?
The Commissioner?
No. Who's above him? Who's our boss?
The Home Secretary
What?
I've lowered the boom
A complete change of itinerary for him
Which was what?
He was due to make a personal commendation
Ah, lunch at the Guild Hall, meeting with the PM, visit to his barber
I've squashed 'em all and we're going to trace the whole route
Personal commendation?
A bit of internal PR
A local copper with more guts than good sense commended for bravery
The HM thought it would be a nice gesture if he personally...
Went along to the station to make the presentation
Found this at Turkel's house
You, there. Get back in. Go on
Right up here
Looks all right
Yeah, looks
Hold it
All right?
That's fine, Miss
Um, I've given you my driving licence
Doesn't one of us have to sign something?
Oh, ah, yes
If you sign there, Miss, I'll fill in the details later
That's fine, Miss
Doesn't look as if there's anything wrong there
He'd have to look good, wouldn't he?
Let's assume they've got the proper uniforms
The timing's dead right
Timing?
Yeh, it's right between shifts
What time is the HM due there?
Oh, about ten minutes from now
Yeh, dead right. There'd only be ten or twenty people in there at the most
They could lock those up in the cells
You're just guessing
Yes, sir
Just the same, ten, twenty people in there?
Well, that's a guess, too. There'd be station staff, duty officer, radio room
Well, that's a simple thing, isn't it? Just call up the radio room
And what would you say with a rifle pressed against your head
Yeh, apart from that
Describe the Home Secretary to me
The man we all work for. What's he look like?
Doyle?
Well, uh, he's about, about fifty, fifty-five
Bodie?
Yeh, like Ray says, you know
Average age, build, height
Just another politician
Yeh
Bit like me, would you say?
Well, not twins
But not unalike either, eh
And if you're expecting him, he'd arrive in a car pretty much like this, wouldn't he
Well, if you don't know him, why should they?
I'll either make a damned fool of myself or we'll know, won't we?
Bodie, they'll expect him me to have a bodyguard
Oh, you can't go in looking like that
You'd better go and buy yourself something respectable
Oh, your handgun. They'll find that right away. But perhaps a...
Ask me what it feels like to be a screw
If we're not out in two minutes...
Send the balloon up
No, if we're not out, it means we're hostages along with ten or twenty others
We're not dealing with a terrorist
No brave causes
We're dealing with a criminal mind, and that means single-minded
I don't like it
You'll follow my instructions to a T
On your way
There's a car pulling in
It's him. It's got to be him
All right, it's all systems go
This way, Mr Secretary
You're gonna read a special news flash
Doyle to HQ
Loud and clear. All units
Attention all units
Here is a matter of grave importance
This is the Home Secretary. I'm being held hostage in Woodlane Police Station
The station has been locked and barred
Kill the siren. Look, I want that end blocked up. And shut that lamp off
...policemen are also being held prisoner in the cells
So far, no one has been harmed, but there are nineteen hostages here...
Nineteen, do you hear that, nineteen
And at the top of the pile is the Home Secretary. And nobody gets hurt
And, as long as you play ball, nobody will
Do you hear that?
Yeh, we hear. What do you want?
A plane, an escort, and Henry Turkel
That's going to take time
You've got one hour
One
I hope you know what you're doing
You manage to raise the prison?
Yeh. They're not happy
Happy? I didn't expect them to be happy
Have a car standing by to collect Turkel, will you?
Hmm
Doyle?
So you're Doyle
Yeh
You issued orders to seal off this area
Yes, sir
With nobody watching the police station
That's right
What the hel...
George Cowley's express orders
Cowley's being held
That's right. So he can't countermand my orders, can he, sir
What rank are you?
We don't have rank in CI5
What rank were you?
Detective Constable
I'm taking over
No
If you'd just care to read the small print in my authority, sir
Sorry, sir, but you're not
Henry Turkel's on his way
Right. Any advice would be welcome, sir. Excuse me
Charley
There's nothing moving out here, Charley
They're being sensible
No
I mean nothing at all
It's the new system, Charley
Eh?
To avoid panicking the public, new system
Seal off the area, tell them a gas main's blown, something like that
Go upstairs and see whether you can see anything from up there
Huh
He did it
He did it. He got one on all of you
No, no, leave him cuffed. Tully
C'mon
Your lads know all about the Official Secrets Act, I hope
Doyle
anything we can do to help?
No. Thank you, sir
There's nothing moving nowhere, Charley
I'm tired. Any objections?
I don't like it, Charley
There's nobody
We'll have another talk on the radio
Charley, Charley Turkel
Charley, I've got your brother
Henry's out. You see?
Hey, where's the escort?
What about the plane?
Yeh
There won't be any. That's part of the new system, too. No compromise
Eh?
Let's see 'im
Bring him out where I can see 'im
Come on, then
Bring him out and let me see him
That's why the area's clear. No one within half a mile. No press, no public
In fact, nobody knows what's happening here
Nor will they ever know exactly what happened here
Oh, we'll make a press release eventually, give them the bones of the story
You demanding your brother's release, a double cross
and poor Henry Turkel got his head blown clean off his shoulders
And what about the death of the Home Secretary? What'll they say about that?
I'm not the Home Secretary, Charley
Just someone doing a job
Charley
I'm waiting, Charley
I'm still waiting, Charley, and my finger's getting tired
We've still got hostages
One gunshot and he's dead, Charley. Your brother's dead
Bodie, a good man
Moves like a cat. He's armed
I'd say he's got a fair chance of holding your mob off in the cells for long enough
Oh, yes, you could blast him out eventually
but one shot and your brother won't have anywhere to put his hat
And the first shot won't be the last, Charley
The whole squad's going to move in
And there aren't going to be any survivors
You've got to believe that, Charley
All of you better believe it
We're coming out
They're coming out
Right, right, come on
Permission to be admiringly insolent, sir
You're a brave old bastard
Permission denied
Anyway, it's inaccurate. I'm not brave
I'm surprised he didn't tell you to take that suit back
He did. That's where we're going
The End
