Thom.

Papa used to say
not to be blinded

by your own brilliance...

because you are...

more brilliant
than even you know,

and also more dangerous.

I want to show you how history
can be made and unmade.

How you created
something miraculous.

So, I've gathered together
our story

from whatever scraps
of footage I could find,

in the hope that somehow,

some time,
this film will find you...

and stop you.

I'm going to show you
how to see your future.

Radio waves never die.

If we can receive broadcasts
from the past,

surely we can receive them
from the future?

I'll never
forget that day

we switched her on
for the first time.

1st October, 1938.

We named her
in honour of Mama.

LOLA.

Ground control to Major Tom

It works.

Ground control to Major Tom

We've seen the future.

Take your protein pills

And put your helmet on

This is Ground Control
To Major Tom

LOLA opened
a magical new world.

1938 went into 1939,

but those dates
meant nothing to us.

We were living
in another time.

And we finally had
a reliable source of income.

Remember that car
I bought you?

Way too small for those legs.

Ground Control to Major Tom

Your circuit's dead
There's something wrong

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you hear...

But LOLA didn't just
show us the world's wonders,

she also showed us
its horrors.

The Nazis had torn
through Europe,

Paris had fallen,
Dunkirk had been evacuated,

and now Hitler had set
his sights on Britain.

The Blitz would claim
thousands of lives

over the coming months.

LOLA could no longer
be just ours.

The world needed her.

They burst out of the clouds

at less than 2,000 feet

and dropped their deadly cargo
on the Isle of Dogs before...

This is an urgent warning,

1:35 a.m. Hackney
and 1:45 Islington.

Due to thick cloud,
there will be no warning

from the authorities
for any of these attacks.

Please make yourselves safe.

3rd May, 1941,

21st furrow
for the Angel of Portobello.

It has become
a nightly occurrence.

After sundown, German bombers
cross the Channel

with their deadly cargo.

No one knows where
they will target or when.

No one, that is,
but their German commanders

and one mystery woman
in England,

nicknamed
the Angel of Portobello

by those residents
of West London

whose lives have been
among the first saved

by her warnings.

Warning, 1:35 a.m. Hackney

and 1:45 Islington, repeat,

1:35 a.m. Hackney
and 1:45 Islington.

Due to thick cloud,
there will be no warning

from the authorities
for any of these attacks.

Please make yourselves safe.

While the warnings
didn't stop the bombings,

they did once again
save dozens of lives.

Last night,
at about half past 12,

we heard
the Angel of Portobello.

We were in a dugout
and, er, thanks to the...

thanks to
the Angel of Portobello,

we are quite safe.

Thanks to
the Angel of Portobello,

my family is all right,
but our house got clobbered.

Oh, God.
No, Thom, not this one.

She has nothing to say
about life or freedom.

Well, we can't get it anyway.

But you are wrong, Mars,

the sentiment
is tediously accurate.

People would rather buy
into fatalism

- than own their own destiny.
- Hmm.

Don't people just want to know

that everything
is going to be all right?

Come dance with me, Mars.

I'm not dancing to this.

I really miss you, honey

When, when...

Here.

Preparation
of food supplements.

Perplexed officials say

that the source of the Angel's
signal remains a mystery,

and the army has been
unable to identify

the mysterious
lady broadcaster.

- Normally, we locate...
- Oh!

...a pirate radio within
15 minutes of broadcasting.

You get a signal search

when pointing in the direction
of the source.

Whereas here, the signal
is coming from all around us.

It's like we're sitting
on top of the antenna.

It's extraordinary.

We'd like the people
behind this

to stop their game now
and come forward.

We are at war.

Our intrepid
officers continue their search

for the Angel of Portobello,
documenting as they go.

Well, they're never
gonna catch us, anyway.

No, of course not.
You're much too clever.

Log of Lieutenant
Sebastian Holloway,

1st June, '41.

I finally traced the signal
source to Shoreham Gasworks.

The Angel of Portobello
is using the gasometer

as a natural transmitter.

The metal superstructure
magnifies

her weak radio signal
and sends it through the mains

into London's pipe networks

which acts as her very own
personal antenna.

It explains why her broadcasts
are omnidirectional in London.

They were coming
from the entire gas grid,

very clever.

2:15, spot what I assume
to be the Angel of Portobello.

Young woman,
curly blonde hair, on bicycle.

2:25, she climbs
the main gasometer.

She spends about 15 minutes
making adjustments

to what turns out to be
a battery-operated transmitter

and the signal source.

2:45, she spots me

and Lance Corporal Clark,
who's filming. She flees.

Cycles west toward the coast.

Very few houses
on this stretch of land.

Terrible roads.

She nearly escapes,

but even she finds
the conditions difficult,

and we manage to cut her off.

She denies everything,
of course.

Says she uses the gasometer
for bird watching.

Is extremely rude.

Has no papers.

But does possess radio
transmitting equipment,

plus a map of all
the gasometers in England.

When I ask her
to identify herself,

she makes up some
obviously bogus names.

Eartha Kitt, Maria von Trapp,
Lady Stardust.

Actual name, Martha Hanbury.

After some gentle persuasion,
she finally acquiesces

and agrees to escort us
to her house.

Strange old place,
quite run-down.

Her sister, Thomasina Hanbury,
emerges and is even ruder.

Threatens to do damage
to my privates,

but relents when I suggest

returning with
a search warrant.

3:15 p.m., I get my first look
at their machine

which they call LOLA.

It's going to change history.

Come on, then.
You've got 10 minutes,

in and out.

This is... magnificent.
It's beautiful.

How do you...
How does it work?

Why aren't you doing more
to stop people from dying?

Better you tell us
how you predict the future.

We know you do.

Mars, what in God's earth
did you say to him?

That you can catch radio
and television broadcasts

from the future.

I had to tell him. He said
we could be hanged as spies...

Don't touch it!

How did you find us?

I was just lucky.

I couldn't understand how
the signal was so dispersed.

But I noticed it was stronger
in houses with piped gas.

Using the copper piped
gas network

as an antenna, that's genius.

I want to help.

You weren't
so easily convinced.

All right, darling?

Do you have to film us
in the bath?

Wash your face.

You look a mess.

I hate anyone coming here.

He's pushy and cocky

and there are negative
consequences to those defects.

Well, he could have
had us arrested.

I don't think he wants
to lord it over us.

- Give me the camera.
- Mm.

Give me the camera.

Here's my prognosis.

You, in all probability,
are going to make him

fall in love with you

and then you'll leave with him

and create jolly offspring.

But who's to say
I would love him back?

No, if he falls
under my spell,

then we can make him
do exactly what we want.

We can make him
muck out Scarborough.

True.
Don't be too charming,

I don't think you know
when to stop.

He might like you more.

Oh, my clitoris
and I do not

need extra company.

Well, good morning.
This is Major Cobcroft.

He has authorised
my presence here.

Where do you want us?

I have realised you were
at Cheltenham last year.

Twenty-three wins in a row.

Hello.

Is someone gonna say hello?

Hello.

Holloway, is this a joke?

Er, Major Cobcroft has kindly
provided you

with some special provisions.

There's tea and coffee,
ham and cheese,

fancy canned content.

Friends in high places.

You are most kind.

But my sister will tell you,
for me eating is merely

a distraction, and if you
imagine we would cook for you,

we are not your women.

I think we need
to re-establish

who's in charge here.

As the
troops went into Smithfield,

- the porter...
- They've just been

working off material
like this.

Future news bulletins.

Can you imagine what
they could achieve

using intel
from military radio?

And if they coordinated
the information with us.

No.

What
happens when the human body

is rocketed into space?

A foretaste of the fantastic
ordeal which awaits

the first man to the Moon.

It reminds me
of going home on a bus.

Christ.

Who on earth are
those diabolical creatures?

Show's over.

They're con artists.

They're projecting B movies
onto that screen.

How do you explain
their predictions?

They got lucky.

Just give me
one go, sir.

Let them tune into military
radio under my supervision.

This is
highly irregular.

I bet a magnum
of champagne

we can make a correct
prediction with that machine.

All right.

But we keep this between us.

It backfires, I know nothing,
you understand?

Yes, of course.

Why are you filming me?

You,
I'm keeping an eye on.

God, you don't miss anything,
do you?

Is that thing recording
sound too?

How does it do that?
It's titchy.

Everything goes
onto the same piece of film.

I use the space
between the sprocket holes

for the soundwave.

You invented this.

Thom made it for me.

She should patent it.

Oh, no, no, no, no!

No, that's my dark room.
Out. Shut the door.

-Shut the door.
-Where's your refrigerator?

We have a pantry.

Erm... It's pretty draughty,
so it's chilly in there.

Well, that's good.

And very in keeping
with the war effort.

So, Sebastian,
are you handy in the kitchen?

Here are the rules
of the game.

Each morning, I use LOLA
to tune into tomorrow's report

from the Royal
Signaller's Station.

That way, we will have
advanced knowledge

of all enemy attacks.

Sebastian's job
is to cross-check

the sign-off codes, so we know
the radio report is authentic.

He sends the intelligence
to Cobcroft,

who puts the information
into action.

Mars continues to document
this for prosperity.

And Sebastian needs to
stock us up with better food,

more wine
and a pile more cigarettes.

Operation Chrono,
11th August, 1941.

8:00 a.m. at 323 Hertz.

It was vital
that we find

the right piece of intel.

Anything too big would risk

giving the game away.

But something too small

might not be enough
to impress Cobcroft.

We listened
to dozens of reports.

Problems impossible to fix.

We weren't finding
what we needed.

And let's not forget

that you hated
working in a team.

It looked as though
our trial was a failure.

And then...

Morning report, August 12th.

Richmond RAF base destroyed.

Enemy attacked
from south-easterly bearing.

Cairo, Alpha, Foxtrot,
9, Bravo. Over.

Okay, that's the one.

Sebastian, check the code.

That's the correct
sign-off code, sir.

Very well.

I'll warn Richmond
anti-air defence.

We could end the war
with this machine.

Ever thought of that?

You are
a prick. Of course I have.

See how you get on
with that intel.

Sorry.

The enemy can't think
we know everything it's doing.

Papa said
to never underestimate

the cunning of the desperate.

He actually said
to never underestimate

the violence
of the power hungry.

And also, actually, we didn't
have military intelligence.

Well, also, actually
Papa was anti-war

and not only against
taking lives but...

So am I.

For all I know,
you could be a spy

with access
to British military secrets.

Now, Mars says
I should trust you,

so don't fuck it up
by acting cocky.

I'm hungry.

He's invading
my creative space.

I wish he'd invade mine.

You are such a tarting flirt.

A flirting
tart, don't you mean?

Er... Oh.

Oh.

Well, I think
he's the best thing

that's happened to us
since we won enough money

to feed ourselves.

Well,
I will make it happen

and he will sit there
and watch,

and if he gloats,
I will punch him.

All that was left
for us to do was wait

until the morning to see
if our plan had worked.

That night, we waited...

...and waited...

and waited.

Until...

Last night,
the military scored

a major victory against
the Luftwaffe by shooting down

an entire German
bomber squadron

over a Richmond RAF base.

This is a great victory for...

Oh, God. God, I'm good.

Success.

Our intel had painted
a bull's-eye

over every German bomber
that night.

The anti-aircraft gunners
took care of the rest.

Our plan had worked.

Wait, wait, wait.
Wait, hold them up.

Hold them up, let me see them.

Oh, you bake.
How cool.

Yeah, I'm afraid the oven
wasn't very hot.

No, I mean cool
as in groovy.

Groovy?
Is that an adjective?

Major.

Bloody hell,
Holloway. Outstanding.

We should make Miss Hanbury
an Honorary Major.

Open your dispatch bag,
the ladies earned it, not you.

Thank you, sir.

- Major Thom.
- Very funny.

Oh, very nice.

Oh! Thank you. I think
he said for the ladies.

Unless you'd like
to join us for a drink.

You were brilliant.

You changed the course
of the war.

Cities that would have
been bombed were saved.

People who wouldn't
have been alive

were walking the streets.

We may allow ourselves

a brief period of rejoicing.

Advance, Britannia.

Long live
the cause of freedom.

Sebastian was
in awe of LOLA

and, it seemed,
a little in love with me.

Stop filming me, I'm peeing!

Girls don't pee
standing up.

No, Mama always
peed like this.

She said it's much healthier
to get the urine

as far away from one's vagina
as possible.

- How interesting.
- Hmm.

My mother
made me pee sitting down

to avoid the seat
up/down conundrum.

I think it's really because
she wanted another girl.

Well,

gender divide
is an artificial construct.

You know, that was
a Papa saying.

I said, stop filming!

Why do you
film everything?

Well, because we're alone.

And why
are you alone?

Mm...

Oh, Papa was conscripted.

He lasted two weeks.

He lasted two weeks
at the front and...

"Fighting for peace is like
screwing for virginity."

Or that's what he would have
said if he had lived longer.

Gosh. Right.

-So who did...
-Hmm?

Oh, I can't remember.

Some dude from the 1960s.

Oh, it's quite disconcerting

that for you two, history goes
forwards as well as backwards.

Mm.

Now, Mama said Papa was killed
at the altar of war worship.

She fired all the help,

she stopped sending us
to school

and she...

went to her room
and listened to records.

And then she started going
for very long walks.

And then one day,
they found her

stuck between two rocks,
halfway down a crag

that plummets
into the nearby cove.

Saving people
for the ones we lost.

I was enjoying
my new-found company

while you were busy
defending the country.

Not that you were getting
the credit, of course.

It's an honour to have been
made a Knight Commander

of the Order of the Bath.

I am proud
of the work I've done

in turning the tide of war
against Adolf Hitler.

But this evening isn't
all about my achievements,

it's about you,

my fellow officers
of the Intelligence Corps,

who've helped me
to put an end to the Blitz.

This is only
just the beginning.

By God, we are good.

This is one of our favourites,

you won't be hearing it again
for some time.

Thom, that's, erm...

Girl
You really got me goin'

You got me now I don't know
What I'm doin' now

Yeah, you really got me now

You got me
So I can't sleep at night

Yeah, you really got me now

You got me so I don't know
What I'm doin' now

Oh, yeah
You really got me now

You got me
So I can't sleep at night

You really got me
You really got me

You really got me

See, don't ever set me free

I always wanna be by your side

Girl, you really got me now

You've got me
So I can't sleep at night

Yeah, you really got me now

You've got me so I don't know
What I'm doin' now

Oh, yeah
You really got me now

You got me
So I can't sleep at night

You really got me
You really got me

You really got me

Yeah! Whoo! Yeah!

No!

My camera.

So, LOLA is so much more
than a war fighter.

This is the true magic.

Erm...

Movies, documentaries.

Newsreels.
Play-outs from LOLA.

Oh, my God.

Is this our future?

Well, this is the future
I'm interested in.

Mama always said that art was
the weathervane of the soul.

Now, see that wall over here?

There, or over there.

That wall is our past.

She captured
every waking moment

with such attention to detail.

Oh, is that you?

Maybe, yeah.

No, I want to look.

No, our children
are going to love this.

At last, a musical rebellion

against the stuffed shirts
that run the world.

Our children?

And who is this chap?

Bob Dylan.

He's one
of my all-time favourites.

He speaks of freedom
and heartbreak,

of a nation lost,

and of the joy and pain
of the authentic soul.

Like you.

Come here.

- Come on.
- What?

Not a word to Thom.

-Promise?
-Promise.

Right, go over there
to that panel back there,

over there to the left.

See the switches
in the middle row?

- Yeah.
- Third one in. Flick it.

Yes!

Now over to the other side.

Other side, quickly.

And the three silver ones.

-Flick them up.
-Yeah.

One, two, three. Yes.

We're going to need
a power surge

where we're going.

Oh, that's far out.

Far out of where?

Now, tune it
to 133 kilohertz.

9:03 p.m.,

8th March,

1973.

Christ, this thing can see
30 years into the future.

Not just major
broadcasts, royal weddings,

signals beamed
around the world.

The diamonds, though,
are the hit songs.

The sound of marching feet

In the street below

No,
you've the wrong time.

You... You said 9:03,
8th March...

1973.

Let me see.

Polish up your jackboots

Learn to march in time

And fall into line

The sound of marching feet

And cracking the chart barrier

at number one
for the 10th week running,

Reginald Watson's
The Sound of Marching Feet.

It looks like Watson
will be making musical history

as his new hit,
Meet Me at the Gallows,

has just crashed number two.

I don't understand.

Thom! Thom!

What are you doing?

He's not there.

Who?

David Bowie.

Who's David Bowie?

He's gone. Bowie's gone.

Thirty years
is a long time away,

the adjustment of variables

could lead to a new set
of consequences.

But we've tuned into him
hundreds of times,

why is it suddenly changed?

Mars,

thanks to us, a lot of people
are alive who would be dead.

It also means
we might have erased him.

No,
you can't kill David Bowie.

Maybe he lives but will have
a different childhood

and become a dentist.

That is a very severe
negative consequence.

Mars, negativity is not
emotionally quantifiable.

There will be someone else
as extraordinary as Bowie.

No, there's
Reginald fucking Watson!

We are trying
to end the war.

You knew this could happen?

I'm not sure it's moral
to erase lives.

What happens to people
whose worlds we erased?

Or is it moral to save lives?

I mean, hypothetically you can
make love with someone

and create life,
by choosing not to do that,

are you erasing
potential life?

Fix this Watson car crash
and get Bowie back!

Sometimes you have
to make sacrifices

for the greater good.

We'd erased
all my heroes.

Bob Dylan. Nina Simone.
David Bowie. Stanley Kubrick.

Now, they were but memories
on my Moviola.

LOLA was profoundly changing
the course of the war.

But we had no way
of predicting

how we were meddling
with the future.

What else had we sacrificed?

Morning, Miss Hanbury.

We've updated
the signature codes.

They'll be
in Holloway's dispatch bag.

Why haven't you managed to hit

any of the U-boat fleet?

I've given you
first-class intel.

They're
bloody elusive.

Even when we know which ship
they're going to sink,

locating the U-boat's attack
point is impossible.

Trying to spot a sub
50 feet below the Atlantic

is like trying to find
a hymen in a whorehouse.

So, you need to wait for
them to rise to the surface.

By which stage,
the subs are in attack mode.

Do that
and you risk our ships.

Do nothing
and the sub will live

to attack another day.
We have to lull them in.

Let them surface and fire,

that way your fighter planes
are sure to spot them.

Christ.

You're suggesting we sacrifice
a civilian ship.

A pawn for a queen.

We should go back.

Mm... No. She can do
the next broadcast alone.

You and I are
otherwise engaged.

The war
office has just announced

that the RAF
has destroyed the entire

- German U-boat fleet...
- Oh, my God.

- ...in the Atlantic Ocean.
- Sebastian!

This marks a huge...

...turning point in the war
against Nazi Germany.

Mr Churchill will address
the nation

on this major development.

This is the moment
when the RAF achieved

what many said
was impossible.

The annihilation
of the Nazi U-boat fleet.

But this stunning victory
wasn't without cost.

Tragically,
our forces were unable

to save the American civilian
liner, SS Abraham Lincoln.

Two thousand souls
lost their lives.

Thom! Thom!

Thom,
you're incredible.

Champagne for Boudicca!

Darling, are you okay?

Did you enact
the battle right here?

What happened?

We received a report
of the Abraham Lincoln

being attacked
by a flotilla of U-boats

and once the attack started,

Cobcroft had the subs bombed
from the air.

Hang on.

You allowed the attack
to start?

Thom, they sunk
the Abraham Lincoln.

We needed bait to get
the U-boats to rise.

How many people
were on that liner?

Well, army man,
it's the semiotics of combat.

Those U-boats wiped out
40 liners last month.

Now, we're going to destroy
the Kriegsmarine

and then we'll go
after their air force.

Let's get the shutters.

Over 2,000 people died...

- How did you do that?
- ...on the American liner.

President Roosevelt
is demanding to know

why Britain didn't deploy

its celebrated
early warning system

- to protect the vessel.
- Mars.

Did you show him
how to work LOLA?

Churchill's
hopes of persuading

the United States of America
to abandon its neutrality

have been dashed.

Preliminary investigations
have found that the British

deliberately allowed
the Abraham Lincoln to be sunk

as a means to entice
the German U-boat fleet

to the surface.

What have you done?

What have you been doing?

You are a child.

A lustful, suggestible child.

The pair of you.

- Thom, I...
- Get out.

I shouldn't have...

-Thom, I'm...
-Get out!

Anger spilled
onto the streets today

when State Department
investigators made

the sensational discovery

that Britain
had prior knowledge

of the attack
on the Abraham Lincoln.

According
to the investigators,

British fighter pilots circled
overhead and looked on

as dozens of Nazi subs

attacked
the defenceless liner.

Within minutes,
the doomed vessel

lay at the bottom
of the Atlantic

along with 2,000 men,
women and children.

President Roosevelt said
it was clear

that the British
had sacrificed the liner

to draw the U-boats
to the surface.

He immediately recalled

Ambassador Joseph Kennedy
from London.

I leave England at this time
with real regret.

But England
remains defiant.

Churchill strenuously rejected
the allegations

and proclaimed that Britain
shall prevail without the aid

of the United States
of America.

Thom, come on, open up.

She's mad.

Fucking mad.

LOLA had just received
the perfect piece of intel.

It was irresistible.

This is Southampton.

We are under sustained attack,
six German destroyers...

You had Cobcroft deploy
the entire navy to intercept

an all-out German attack
on Southampton.

This intel could wipe out
the German navy.

This is fucking pathetic.

It's petty. Come on, open up.

But it was too good
to be true.

I need your help.

What the hell have you done?

The Kriegsmarine is three
miles off the coast of Dover,

our entire fleet is 100 miles
away in Southampton.

The Kriegsmarine
should have arrived

at Southampton one minute ago.

Did you check
the signature code?

Can you replay it?

This is Southampton.

We are under sustained attack,
six German destroyers

supported by a heavy
air bombardment. Over.

There's no signature code.

It was a bogus signal,

there was never an attack
on Southampton.

The Germans know
we've got something.

They must have sent
that signal.

Oldest trick in the book.

You've left us
completely exposed.

You fucking bitch.
You've fucked me.

Authorities are not revealing

the extent of the attack,

except to say
that the coast around Dover

is now under
German occupation.

No, no, no, no, no.

Hello?

There is going to be
an attack at Hastings.

- Who is this?
- Cobcroft?

Major Henry Cobcroft
is unavailable.

No, I need to speak to
him now. Where the fuck is he?

This is Lieutenant Holloway.

I report directly
to Major Cobcroft.

I need him on the line
immediately.

Major Cobcroft
is not available.

Then you... Go get him,
we're being invaded!

- Where are you going?
- To...

warn the army.

- Hold on.
- Look, I'll be right back.

And... try and connect
to someone on intel.

...to move defences
away from...

Can we undo this?

Can I unbreak
that telephone?

What the hell
had we done?

Early this morning,

catastrophe struck Britain.

German forces breached
coastal defences

following a major
intelligence blunder.

Commanding officers
had diverted the RAF

and the Royal Navy
to Southampton, leaving Dover

and the Southeast of England
gravely exposed.

The enemy launched
a full-scale invasion,

landing effectively unopposed.

Town after town fell
to the merciless attackers.

Christening the invasion
Black Sunday,

the Prime Minister issued
a full call to arms.

The Battle
of Britain is about to begin.

On this battle depends

the survival
of Christian civilisation.

If we fail,

then the whole world will sink

into the abyss
of a new Dark Age.

With the Nazis
advancing inland,

Head of Army Intelligence,
Major Sir Henry Cobcroft,

was summoned to explain
the disastrous breach

in Britain's defences.

Major Cobcroft said
that after an investigation,

he had discovered
that two Nazi double agents

had infiltrated
his department.

Lieutenant Holloway and I

were receiving intelligence
from two agents,

Thomasina and Martha Hanbury.

They were double-crossing us.

Taking orders from Berlin.

Their maliciously false intel

resulted in this country
being invaded.

These loathsome creatures
will be found

and hanged for treason.

What do we do?

On bidding farewell

to the King,
who was evacuated to Canada,

Mr Churchill addressed
the nation.

Despite the
traitresses in our midst...

Shit!

...the Nazi forces
shall not prevail

in their attempts
to break the spirit of...

Thom,
we have to leave now.

- I'm not leaving LOLA.
- For God's sake, Thom,

what are you going to do,
put it in a suitcase?

I'm staying.
I can still fight this,

tell the army what the Germans
are going to do next.

Never mind the Germans,

it's Cobcroft
that's going to hang us.

Then get your boyfriend
to tell them the truth.

What?

He's left you, Mars.
He's saving his own skin.

Horseshit.

He would have saved you
from yourself

if you'd let him
check the codes.

He was too busy
bonking you in the woods.

You locked us out.

You were
compromising my work

with your sentimentality.

I'd rather be
sentimental than psychotic.

You are mawkish
and weak, just like Mama.

And you're every bit

as selfish as she was.

Shit.

Mars, let's just go.

For fuck's sake.

Pigs.

Stop. Put the camera down.

Mars, put it down.

If they ask us, we're farmers.

Where are you going?

Home.
We live just down the coast.

Papers.

They're at home.

If you allow us through,
I can get them for you.

You will have to turn back.

Please,
we're looking for my sister.

Excuse me?

You can't proceed.

I said, turn back.

For fuck's sake.
Pigs.

British Fascist leader,

Sir Oswald Mosley,
said it was folly

to have gone to war
with Germany.

Dissidents
of the new regime

had set up a refuge
in an old warehouse.

We were happy just to be safe.

Oh, this is the tip
of the iceberg.

The unseen face of Fascism.

If you can get these pictures
out to America,

it might help counter
all the propaganda.

Hey! Stop that!

What's wrong?

You know, like the colour
of the sky

- before it goes to night time.
- Nice.

- It's that kind of thing.
- Nice.

- Indigo.
- Yeah.

Oy!

Oy!

You need
something to do.

Little rascal.

So, Leo, here is how we put
the bits of film together

to make the images
become a story.

So, erm, hold it still.

Still.

And allow the camera
to become your eye.

Try to figure out where
you should be looking next.

Yeah, so maybe down
to my hands

if I'm playing
with these things.

Onto my hands, like this.

Or maybe over to there

where I'm talking to you

and then back
to my face again.

That's it.

And a bit more upright.

I think you're a natural.

...Mosley to lead Britain

to a new prosperity
and friendship with Germany.

I claim that in the ranks

of our Blackshirt legions,

march the mighty ghosts
of England's past.

Today,
our new German liberators

freed more political prisoners
detained under the old regime.

-There's Leo.
-Amongst those released

were scientist Thomasina
Hanbury, falsely accused...

...by the previous government.
Miss Hanbury's research

is of great interest
to the Third Reich.

Try to keep
the camera still.

This evening, we are joined
by a very special guest,

Miss Thomasina Hanbury,

a self-educated orphan
who was condemned to death

by the old regime
three months ago,

only to be
dramatically rescued

by our liberators mere hours
before her execution.

Since then,
she has transformed

the nation's fortunes

in the field
of strategic forecasting.

Of particular note is her
mysterious invention, LOLA.

Miss Hanbury, may I ask,
how does your machine work?

It consists of a system
of electrical processors

which filter and amplify

even the faintest
electromagnetic wave

into a coherent signal.

And when combined
with an understanding

of quantum mechanics,
LOLA allows us

to observe broadcasts
from the future.

How impressive.

I hear the machine has baffled

the greatest engineering minds
of both Britain and Germany.

The men they sent
to examine LOLA

were limited
by their lack of imagination

as much as their formal
scientific training.

Thankfully, I prefer
to work alone.

My home laboratory
is everything I need.

What inspired you
to build this machine?

My father was an inventor,
an idealist.

And he believed

humankind was being
transformed for the better

by technological advances.

The work I do today
strives to this ideal.

To what end?

To create the perfect society.

A society in which
we all prosper.

No government blunders
that send people into poverty.

No more murders
on the streets.

No conflicts and no war.

You've personally experienced
your fair share of adversity.

After the tragic death
of your parents,

you were left alone
to raise your sister, Martha,

while still very much
a child yourself.

That must have been difficult.

We managed.

Your current standing must be
all the more gratifying

considering
the disgraceful way

Churchill's government
treated you and your sister,

who was sadly executed

before the liberators
could reach her.

There was nothing gratifying
about my sister's death.

When I received the news,
it was...

a horrible blow.

She deserved better.

It is a shame that LOLA
can't fix the past.

If Martha were alive today,
what would you say to her?

I would tell her
to live her life...

and to leave me behind.

We need to get her
out of there.

It's too dangerous.
She'll get killed.

Well, she never goes a day
without swimming,

-so we can go and get her.
-Martha.

Look at me. We're safe here.

Let go of me.

I'm going to get her.
I'm going to find her now.

How are you
gonna get there?

Are you gonna
come with me or not?

Fine, just let me go...

They're looking for you...

Just let me go
on my own. I'm fine.

- You're not safe.
- I don't need you.

Mars,
get out of here.

Wait.

- Look.
- What are you doing here?

- Get out of there.
- Intruder!

Mars! Go on, go!

Sebastian!

I drew a line
In the sands of time

Dared you to step over it

And you did

Saw your visage
In the looking glass

Such a pretty face

But such a bitter taste

Do you remember tomorrow?

The roads that we followed

To a life that might
Never come to be

The future is a distant memory

To me now

Let me guess.

Bob Dylan?

No. That was me.

My world became
empty and cold.

You, on the other hand,
were soaring to new heights.

The sound of marching feet

Can you hear it?

The sound of marching feet

In the street below

Together we are strong

Crush the weaklings

So sing our fascist song

In the street below

Send to all the world
a message.

England lives and marches on!

Learn to march in time

And fall into line

The sound of marching feet

Can you feel it?

The sound of marching feet

See the torches glow

Put this record on

Learn all of the lyrics

If your friends
Don't sing along

Call the police

The sound of marching feet

Left, right, left, left, left
Left, right, left

Left, left, left, right, left

Left, left

The sound of marching feet

Left, left, left, right, left

Left, left, left, right, left

-The sound of marching feet
-The sound of marching feet

-The sound of marching feet
-The sound of marching feet

-The sound of marching feet
-The sound of marching feet

Do not fraternise

With radicals and perverts

Learn to march in time

And fall into line

There was only one thing
left for me to do.

Today, the Prime Minister
announced that Adolf Hitler

will be making his first
state visit to England.

The Führer will be dropping in
on a very special house

on the Sussex Coast,
where government scientist

Thomasina Hanbury has been
conducting pioneering work.

Because of
this remarkable woman,

rescued and championed
by the Führer,

we say to our enemies,

"Watch out, we know
what you're going to do

"before you even think of it."

And now, it is my pleasure
to introduce you

to Master Reginald Watson,
the voice of the future.

Land of Hope
Thy hope is crowned

God make thee mightier yet

On sovereign brows

Beloved

Once more thy crown is set

Leo, stop filming.

God, who made thee mighty

Make thee mightier yet

God, who made thee mighty

Make thee mightier yet

At the rally,

President Lindbergh celebrated
how National Socialism

had brought the American
people together and...

...developed by British

and German scientists,
this is the ultimate weapon

against the Bolshevik.

Martha
Hanbury had entered the house

with the intention
of assassinating the Führer

but, fortuitously, her bomb
went off prematurely

in an adjoining room,

and the deranged woman
was captured.

The shocked Führer

- escaped unscathed...
- Mars.

...and issued an order
for the female terrorist

to be put to death
immediately.

There is
Nothing so gladdens the heart

Than to watch a traitor march

To the gallows

To the gallows

Hold!

Like a gardener pulling weeds

The path of treason only leads

To the gallows

I'm so glad
I bought you that car.

To the gallows

I hid for days.

When the Nazis left,
I returned...

and found this.

April 12th, '42.

Preparations for LOLA's
demonstration are complete.

It's hard to believe
I am saying these words.

Adolf Hitler will be
here tomorrow.

How's it come to this?

Fascism has truly won.

I was a fool to believe

I could work
with these people.

What would Papa think?
Or Mars?

I'm almost glad
they're not alive

to witness this spectacle.

I don't know when
it started to go wrong,

but I fear it was long ago.

LOLA was never meant to be
an instrument of violence.

Mars was right.

The magic of LOLA
was the beauty

of the world
she opened for us,

those sounds and images
from another time.

Her power lay in what
we could learn from her.

Mars understood that.

But perhaps because
she was a dreamer,

she was the one
with the real imagination.

I can see that now.

Maybe if she were here,

we could find a way
to undo all of this together.

I miss her.

I miss you too, Thom.

But maybe there is a way
we can undo this together.

I've made this film for you.

It's the last broadcast
of the Angel of Portobello.

It's a shot in the dark.

And I'm sorry, Thom,

because if this film doesn't
find its way to you,

then you will have died
pointlessly and stupidly,

and I will truly
have lost everything.

We will all have lost
more than is bearable.

This film is for us, Thom.

And if we're lucky,

you'll be watching it long
before this horror unfolds.

Then perhaps you can turn
these words and images

into shadows of something
that could have happened.

Even though I'll have
to say goodbye

to the man I'll never meet.

Darling Thom...

can you save us after all?

When, when, when

Will we be together again?

I want to spend

My life with you

I really miss you, honey

When, when, when

Will your arms enfold me?

And hold me like
Your life on it depends

When, when

Will I see you again?

I really miss you
