All language subtitles for COBRA S03E01 Cobra Rebellion 1 1080p NOW WEB-DL DDP5 1 H 264-FLUX_track3_[eng]

The following programme
contains strong language.

This is now a national emergency.

And COBRA will remain active
until its conclusion.

We are under attack from
a coalition of powerful state actors

and they seem to be taking turns
to occupy the driving seat.

Most of you know Joseph Obasi,
of course.

What do you think of him?
Bright, charismatic, ambitious.

Ah, Peter. Thanks for coming.

Let's cut to the chase.

First they restore the whip.

Then I get a seat in cabinet

and I want you to help.

And what's the price,
Mephistopheles?

The scoop of the day is that
the PM's wife was on the legal team

which gave bungs
on behalf of a Ukrainian gangster.

He's lying.

It's your integrity,
your job they're trying to capsize.

I'm just collateral damage.

You wanted a shortlist
of my preferred candidates.

Now you have one.
I don't see the problem.

Except for all of them being on
the hard right of the hard right.

Chris Edwards wants me
back in Parliament.

Go for the seat. Win it.

Come and work for me, then.

My job is to make sure you
make the best possible decisions.

Well, maybe that's something
overdue for reappraisal.

I have to go.

It was Anna's suggestion.

You spoke to Anna before me?

She's a fucking mole.

You're fired.
No, I resign.

We can't have an absentee
Prime Minister.

One hundred percent agree, Joseph.

Robert's in a bad place.
You have to come back.

I loved you.

I just never ever dared -
Robert.

Unfortunately,
this new group have issued threats

with regards to violent
interventions in the election.

This government
will not tolerate that.

Our next move needs to be robust.

I can't stay at home.
I'm going to stay with Anna.

Did he just hit your car?

Miss, clear the vehicle, go!

You a resident?

My name's Francine Bridge.
I'm a Member of Parliament.

My condolences.

No more traffic into Godley.
You're gotta go right.

Excuse me.

"Henry Wickes. leave a message.

And join our fight
at Godley Common."

Henry, it's Francine.

There's bloody police everywhere
but I am coming.

Her actions today surely constitute,

by any measure,
a shocking escalation.

It's a justified escalation.

Your group has called openly for the
overthrow of democratic government

and of capitalism.

What we have called for

is for the end of the homicidal,
reckless exploitation of the planet.

Mr Wicks, how many more young
people are you willing to exploit

and endanger to further your cause?

What happened to our brave friend
is a tragedy.

But this is not exploitation.

This is about
citizens of courage and will

putting themselves at great personal
risk in the face of extreme crisis.

What we are calling for
is systemic change.

And any system
that cannot or will not change

deserves to fall.

So are you concerned
about the possible consequences

for the Planet Resistance movement
in the aftermath?

The government's cynical
Disturbance Bill

already represents
a draconian violation

of our right to peaceful protest
and our fundamental freedom.

How do you think the Prime Minister
is feeling right now?

Well, I doubt that
he's over the moon.

In fact I imagine that he's...

he's profoundly embarrassed
and highly anxious.

He... He...

It was not a separation.

Robert, when I said
you were separated for two months,

I just meant... as geographical fact.

Rachel went to visit our daughter
in Chile, yes.

And given the circumstances
at the time I supported that.

Oh, I felt so supported
I mean, I saw the sense in it.

Given, as I said, the circumstances.

Would you maybe expand
on what you mean by circumstances?

Well, I'm not sure if you're
aware of any minor news at the time,

Ruin Britannia,
Cerberus, thermonuclear brink.

My name, reputation,
career pulverised,

if we are listing circumstances.

In the questionnaire
you each completed,

I asked what you most hoped for...
..from counselling.

And I'd like to try
a little exercise.

I-I'm sorry. We're ten minutes over.

We agreed it would be beneficial
to begin with a double session.

Wasn't in my diary.
Unbelievable.

I have a COBRA meeting. I'm late. Sorry.

Truly.

I'm aware your professional
obligations are... somewhat singular.

Robert if you fuck up this evening,
I WILL divorce you!

I won't. I would never.

Can I ask?

This evening?

Our daughter's coming home.

Sincerest apologies.

A scheduling error

for which someone
will be both fired and imprisoned.

So, the situation at Godley Common?

The Metro Ultraline construction
at Godley remains paralysed

by the Planet Resistance protest.

Most of the surface camp
has been cleared,

but there are still six protestors

within the tunnel network
they've dug.

And I'm afraid
that eviction process is ongoing.

The bailiffs estimate reaching
the protestors within four days.

What are they digging with?
Bloody teaspoons?

The protest tunnel is sophisticated.

And we think they've locked
themselves on at drop-shafts

here and here...

Plus, with the recent heavy rain,

that's complicated
the whole operation.

So it's not so much teaspoons, Minister,

as basic health and safety logistics.

Oh, for God's sake.

This Planet Resistance group

have been holed up in the mud
for three weeks.

And given the cost
of outsourcing the eviction,

one has to wonder if the bailiffs
have as much to gain

from dragging this out
as Planet Resistance themselves.

Um... I really don't think -
So Victoria and I

have been conferring.

And agree that we should...

The army.

Send them in.
Get it done and dusted.

To bring them out faster, Robert,
not to shoot them.

Although, given the backlog
in the courts...

Look, you may think it a little...
de trop.

But the fact is,
the longer this goes on,

these people are making a mockery
of the Civil Disturbance Bill

and the authority of government.

Government, which I would remind you

is obligated to prioritise
the safety of its citizens.

Which is the whole point of the
Civil Disturbance Bill, isn't it?

To protect the public from selfish
idiots and unnecessary disruption.

Look, have the Sheriff's Office

put extra pressure
on the bailiffs' firm by all means.

Get the protestors out of the tunnel,

and we will prosecute to the full
extent provided under the bill.

I just think
there's wearing a velvet glove

and then there's
waving a feather duster.

But we will NOT
be sending platoons to the Shires.

So... you looking forward
to the ponies?

Gotta love The Telegraph.

Mirror went with
"Only Fools And Horses".

Always nice to make a parade
of glad-handling tyrants.

Gerald Kendrick's worried
they're talking to the Americans.

And if it takes a bit of
glad-handling

to move back the goalposts then...
The top hat becomes you.

Top hat becomes Archie.

I look like a circus ringmaster.

Well, you're hardly short of clowns.

In fact, I know I'm meant
to be off for another three weeks,

but I want to come back sooner.

Do you think you're -
As in tomorrow.

Well, I mean, if you're sure.

If I find myself watching
another episode of Bargain Hunt,

I'm going to burn
this bloody house down.

I'm ready, Robert.

Fine.

Fine.

Sorted?
Yeah.

All good?
Peachy.

Should be enough down there
for about three weeks now.

Any word from Francine Bridge?

Not yet.

All right. Thanks, mate.

You really think she'll come?
Yep.

Jesus. A politician
actually on side for once.

Won't stop the eviction, though.

Except when they realise Polly's
gone down an even deeper tunnel

they still can't build
their sodding train.

Till they dig her out.

So what, sorry? You're saying
you don't think it's even worth it?

What I'm saying is it's not enough.
That's why I'm upping the ante.

You taking the piss?
No, I'm serious.

You're gonna find out very soon, OK?

I promise you, this is something

they're not going
to be able to ignore.

Welcome home.

Hi!

Thirsty work.

I should've done cauliflower cheese.
She loves my cauliflower cheese.

I'm sure she'll be satisfied
with the banquet in her honour.

Rachel, I... I'm sorry
about this morning.

Well, your professional
obligations are somewhat singular.

Look.

I know things haven't been right.

But I want them to be. To be...
like they were. Like WE were.

Oh, my God!
Something smells good.

Oh, I've missed you so much! Mwah!

- How was the flight?
- It was good,
it was long, it was long! Hey!

You must be exhausted.
I'm gonna put these in your room.

It's so good to see you.
Missed you!

So I want to start actually
doing something.

Campaigning?

Yeah. Human rights
but specifically women's rights.

Ooh! Darling,
our baby has been radicalised.

That's what comes from
consorting with anarchists.

Bruno is not an anarchist,

he's a professor
of political science

at the University of Santiago.

He's also a very charming young man
and extremely handsome.

Then I'll look forward to his visit.

Why? So you can deport him?

I don't think he'll be visiting.

You know when people say
- "we parted amicably"?
- Mm.

Well, we didn't.

Honey, why didn't you tell me?

Anyway, I've applied to Oxfam,
Amnesty, the usual suspects.

What, Dad?

Can't an old man
be proud of his daughter?

It's worth trying
to make things better.

This gravy looks amazing.

What are we toasting?

You want a speech?

Homecoming.
Mm.

The future.

Making things better.
Viva la revolucion.

"Upping the ante" Henry said.

What the fuck does that mean?

Has he told you?
Hm?

Polly?
No.

He fucking has! Tell me!

Well, tell me how much you'll
miss me when I'm underground.

I'm intending to forget you
immediately. Tell me.

Tell me or I'm tipping them.
No! Don't you dare. Stop! Stop!

Three, two, one -I'll tell you,
I'll tell you, I'll tell you!

Just not yet.

Oh, hang on.

Oh, I need to get this.

Bienvenido, amiga!

OK, so...

Tomorrow. Fox Vintage, I want you
to be there at three, OK?

Yep.

Yeah.

Got it.

The Sheriff's back in town!

I watched your highlights
from the Environment Committee.

Think you fracked
our Under Secretary

at least three new arseholes.
Bit of an error on my part.

The last thing your party needs
is more arseholes.

There's a protest.
Planet Resistance.

No doubt you'll have them
in the gulag by lunchtime.

Oh, Christ, don't start.

The Civil Disturbance Bill.

Fair question: would you really
have had Robert push that through,

if you'd been -
What? Not in a coma?

Funnily enough, being car bombed

gave my attitude to national
security somewhat renewed vigour.

Fair answer?

Yeah, I'd say the memory's
pretty vivid for me too.

I just think
there's national security,

and there's making peaceful protest
a capital crime.

I could be watching Bargain Hunt.

They want me to visit the
Ultraline site. Planet Resistance.

Are they taking the piss?
Or are you?

They are a movement
with legitimate arguments.

And I am the shadow
environment secretary.

Not for bloody long,
by the sound of it!

For pity's sake!

Might be quicker on foot, sir.

Don't be bloody absurd, Kevin.

What are they clamouring about
today? The weather?

Cricket scores?
The price of chips...?

Death merchant!

Anna Marshall,
as I live and breathe!

Hello, Victoria.
Welcome back.

You look remarkably well, considering.

I'm looking forward to working together.

Though you'll be pleased to know

government's kept a steady course
in your absence.

Despite the wokerati whining.

Yes, the Civil Disturbance Bill's
done wonders for our standing.

A good ship needs a strong compass.

I just hope you'll...

Well, I know you weren't
due back for a while, so...

if it all gets a bit much...

Be kind to yourself.

I wouldn't want you
getting overwhelmed.

This morning my office was informed
that King Zyan is unfit to travel,

and the Crown Prince Samir
will make the visit in his place.

The question being whether it's true

His Highness is circling
the Royal Drain.

Or he's cancelling
Teesside Greentech

and doesn't
want to tell us in person.

All our intelligence suggests
that they're being level with us,

at least concerning Zyan's health.

If Zyan's sending a deputy,
I'm not sure Robert should attend.

Why?

Teesside's a flagship facility

and God knows this government
needs a success story.

At this point
Zyan could send his butler

and we'd have an obligation
to smile sweetly.

I think Victoria's point,
given the stakes here,

is better the devil we know.

So what do we know about Samir?

Cosmopolitan, ambitious,

progressive, a ruthless operator,

any or all of which may be true.
We don't know his agenda.

But we have received a revised
security protocol from the embassy

and Samir will now be
accompanied at the races

by his sister, Princess Yadira.

Christ. The last thing
we want to do is piss Zyan off

by hobnobbing with
the black sheep of the family.

A black sheep who advocates
for the rights of women

and workers in her homeland.

If we get this wrong,
quite apart from Greentech,

what if Zyan gets pissy
and pulls the rug

on the other major investment too?

It is, of course, possible,
where the Princess is concerned,

there's been a rapprochement...

And we've nothing to suggest

that Samir has ceased
being the favourite son.

Who, one day, is going to be King

and we're going
to have to do business with him.

We can't possibly afford
to brush him off now.

Anna's right.

We host the guest
and proceed as planned.

We need the investment.

At the start
there was about 20 of us.

We had people in towers,

roped in,
locked to barrels of concrete.

Bailiffs brought cranes,
ripped them off.

Bastards are nothing
if not efficient.

But we've still got our tunnel.

And when they drag us out,
I want to make some fucking noise.

Question is,
will you be part of the rally here

or is leadership
gonna slap you down?

They want to fight the government
hard on the environment.

They just don't think it makes sense

to draw swords
over building railways.

Metro Ultraline isn't
being built because it's green.

It's being built because a load of
arseholes are making a mint from it.

The land here can't even take it.

All the old mineworks,
year after year of extreme rainfall.

It's riddled.

It's mush.

And it's gonna destroy the -

Francine Bridge. CBL News.

Did you tell them I was coming?

D'you really think I'd do that?

I think I was six years old when
my father first brought me here.

One of the horses fell.

I wept.

Afterwards,
when we returned to the estate,

he beat me for one entire hour.

Needless to say,
I've always preferred football.

Next time you visit,
might I suggest Wembley instead?

Is it for sale?

Cheers, are we on?
Yep.

Prince Samir, if I may...

I'd like you to come and meet
Gerald Kendrick, Condor Aerotech?

I'm sure he'd be delighted
for a moment of your time.

Then it behoves me to indulge him.
After you.

If Samir pulls the investment

I suppose we're in the right
place to plug the funding gap.

Stick a monkey on a nag.
Could be the health budget.

Now, can I suggest you
lend Victoria a diplomatic hand?

At least it takes me
past the vol-au-vents.

It's time.

You look like a man who wishes
he was literally anywhere else.

Princess.

Such a pleasure to finally meet you.

Sorry to hear about
the King's poor health.

Well, I think we both know he's
been a sick man for a long time.

So I gather your daughter
has come home.

Yes, we're very happy.

She's fortunate to have a father
she can be proud of.

Well, I wouldn't presume
to speak for her on that count.

I see my sister has denied me
the privilege of introducing her.

Though not to me, Your Highness.

Princess. Your residence here
speaks very clearly

of the friendship
between our two countries.

Perhaps in the spirit of that
friendship you might meet with me

and the leaders of a group
I've been working with

advocating for the rights of women.

It would be our honour, Princess.
We could also discuss the -

I believe our hosts are keen
to discuss more pressing business.

Father's horse is about to run.

And nothing puts me in
a more receptive mood than victory.

No deal with the devil!

Bugger and bollocks!

We should go!

Get off!

No deal with the devil!

Come with me.

No more blood for oil!

It was King Zyan's horse.

On behalf of the United Kingdom,

please accept my most complete apologies.

Prime Minister.

Allow me to address
your anxious uncertainty.

My father is a dinosaur.

I am my country's future

and I wish to rule over
more than a fossil kingdom.

I wish for progress,

peace in the Peninsula.

And to be at the forefront of
clean, renewable energy production

with the engine
of our Sovereign Wealth Fund.

Despite my father's wilful obstinacy,

there is no danger
to our investment here.

Your Royal Highness,

this is a future
for both our countries

we're more than happy to embrace.

I shall be sure to pass on
your commiserations to the King.

I wonder if he'll weep.

Got a minute?

I ought to finish this paperwork.

Three down: tomfoolery.

Don't meet the Princess.

I beg your pardon?

I saw her.
Wedging a sandal in your door

to gripe about this, that,
and the other thing in her country.

But as long as the King's
still wheezing on the throne

we can't rock the boat.

I can assure you, Victoria,
I am more than capable

of giving the illusion
of a sympathetic ear

and a credible smile.

I'd work on the smile.

Reminds me of my dog
when he's rolled in fox shit.

The weather.

You gonna leave
anything on the rack?

New wardrobe, new me.

Don't you know anything about,
like, wellness?

Do you need any help?

Yeah, can I try these please?

Of course!
- Thank you.
- Ta.

Thank you.

Stop the car!

Stop the car!

You'll feel much better soon.

Ellie?

Ellie!

Ellie!

Oscar Unit, Code Black!
Repeat, I have a Code Black.

The situation at Godley Common
has progressed.

The bailiff unit
has finished digging

and eviction is due tomorrow.

Finally, some good news.

Not all good.

We have confirmation
that Planet Resistance

are intending to stage a protest
rally during the eviction.

It's a direct challenge
to the Civil Disturbance Bill

and we need to meet it
with the full array of powers

under the Bill's provision.

These cretins need
to be brought to heel.

The races were
a bloody embarrassment.

Well, it certainly won't help
Global Britain

cut a dash across the world stage.

We can't even keep a lid
on the Trots and hippies

squawking in our own gaff.

Perhaps Commissioner Millar
would like to offer an opinion.

Well you can talk about this
"full array of powers",

but for the Planet Resistance movement,

being arrested is not a deterrent,
it's a strategy.

How many are going to turn up?
Thousands.

And we're supposed to arrest
the lot?

Then stop them coming in.
Roadblock the village.

They'll come through the fields.
We can't fence off the entire -

What's the point in passing bills
for law and order

if we can't enforce them?
We have to demonstrate authority.

Then, with respect,
you have to help me find the budget

to pull in overtime
from three divisions.

Wait.

The protest is happening
around the eviction tomorrow.

If the tunnel's dug,

why are the bailiffs
waiting till tomorrow to go in?

Do it now, for Christ's sake!

The issue is there's heavy rain
forecast today.

Do they need umbrellas?
Manner of speaking, yeah.

In the sense
of additional personnel,

equipment, precautionary protocol,

the soonest would be tonight,
all at additional cost.

It won't cost more than
a huge police deployment

and it pulls the rug
from under this rally.

Act with authority, minimise
confrontation. Audrey, get it done.

I'm sorry, excuse me.

Would you like
to keep waiting for Robert?

Or just begin the session?

I'm sorry for this, for my husband.

I just feel like such a bloody fool.

Why, Rachel?

Because every time he says
that he wants things to be better

I believe him.

Talk of the devil.

Where the hell are you?

"Rachel, listen to me.
It's about Ellie."

Ellie. Welcome to the war.

The shop employee, Polly Wright,

is one of the key organisers
of the Planet Resistance movement.

Now, for several months
Ellie's been in contact with her,

emphatic in support,
wanting to involve herself.

So Ellie just walks away from
her so-called protection officer

and you have absolutely no idea
where she is?

We believe her intention
is to use her profile

at the Godley Common
eviction rally to maximise exposure.

Exposure for them.
Humiliation for us.

Which is what truly matters here.

What matters is that you send some
actually competent protection units

to find my daughter,
and bring her home.

Sutherland's kid?
Are you out of your fucking mind?!

Pleased to meet you, too.

Told you.
Something nobody could ignore.

I'm here to help.

Where's Polly?
She's with the police.

Oh, for fuck's sake.

She'll be all right.
They can't hold her for anything.

Let's fucking hope not, shall we?

We can't go down the second tunnel
now so we sack it off, right?

She'll make it!

She knew the risk was worth it
for our star speaker.

Henry, there aren't gonna be
any speakers. The rally's fucked.

I've just come from the site.

There's machines there,
a shitload more bailiffs turning up.

They're doing the eviction tonight.

Then we do the same.

Go on the socials, get it out there.
Anybody who can come now, come.

I shouldn't be talking to you.
"Why not?"

Because I've just had the mother
of all bollockings from the whips

for associating the Party with
you all over Sky sodding News.

"They're moving the eviction
forward."

Wait, they're what?
"It's set for tonight."

Tonight?
"Yep. They want to fuck us."

Fuck the whips. I'll be there.

There's pigs crawling through
the village. They know she's here.

I didn't come here
just to be taken home

like some naughty fucking toddler.

I came to speak, to say something.
And I still can.

The other tunnel, the one Polly
was gonna go down, I'll go instead.

No way.

Henry, no fucking way. It's too
dangerous, she's got no experience.

Oh, sorry, and she's the daughter of
the Prime Minister for fuck's sake!

No. We need to put ourselves
on the line.

We're crying out
for people to pay attention.

They want to stifle us
so we need to scream.

She's right.

Follow me.

Since we found the bike I've
had units sweeping Godley Common.

There is however a further issue.

Planet Resistance know
about the new eviction plan

and they're trying
to bring theirs forward too.

My position regarding this -
Well understood, thank you, Joseph.

But Prime Minister -
As is yours.

Joseph's right.
This will not be tolerated.

Set up a ring around the village

and if Planet Resistance people
come waving banners and bongos,

fucking arrest them.

Is that clear?

Sir.

It was a smuggler's tunnel
a couple of hundred years ago.

Now it's ours.
Right in the path of the machine.

Use this to record your message
before you crawl through.

We'll upload it.

Make sure she knows
how to use the cave radio.

Ellie, are you really sure
you wanna do this?

I need to do something.

Henry, please, listen.
Nate, we don't have much time.

Come on, let's go.

You seal it before I'm back up,

I swear to God,
I'll dig myself out and bury you.

In the last few minutes Planet
Resistance has uploaded a video.

They're patching it through now.

My name is Ellie Sutherland.

By the time you see this,
I will be deep down a tunnel

beneath Godley Common village

in the path of the proposed
Ultraline construction.

In solidarity with the activists
from Planet Resistance

who have bravely spent
the last 23 days living underground.

Christ on a bike.

Green transport, at least.

I am aware my actions will create

significant embarrassment
for my father

but I feel fundamentally obligated

to make best use
of my privilege and profile

to demand attention to the crisis
facing everyone on this planet.

A crisis way beyond
the Ultraline at Godley Common.

A crisis to which those in power,

including, I am afraid to say,
my own father,

continue to pay only lip service.

And I need to make it clear,
as loudly as possible,

the planet is running out of time.

And we are the resistance.

...cause and in such a manner...

It's Michael for you.

Yes, Michael? No, absolutely
it's real. Yeah, come down.

Audrey, tell me what's happening.

The eviction can proceed
as planned, but...

Prime Minister, extracting Ellie
is an entirely new operation.

We'll need sub-stratal mapping
to work out exactly where she is.

We need to take control of this.

Tell the police
to cordon the eviction site

and permit a small controlled
gathering within Godley Common.

Ellie's made this into world news.

We can't have jackboots
- on the village green.
- Yes, yes.

And a statement
for immediate release.

We need to be clear
Ellie will face consequences

to the same extent as anyone else,

that the government remains
committed to the Ultraline Project.

Oh, Jesus Christ.
Our daughter's underground

and your priority
is a commitment to your trainset?!

You cannot be in here.
What?!

Go to the flat. I'll let you know
as soon as I hear anything.

Are you serious?
Rachel, I need to work. I need help.

And I need you to get out
of this room.

Rachel.

They're starting a press conference.
"Wait, one at a time."

Get the statement out.

Despite the government
bringing this eviction forward

in a cowardly bid to try
and wrongfoot our peaceful protest

and stifle our
legitimate voice of dissent,

Planet Resistance stands
with the people of Godley Common

against the wasteful
and egregious vanity project

of the Metro Ultraline.

OUT! OUT! OUT!

Are you concerned
about the possible consequences

for the Planet Resistance movement?

The government's cynical
Disturbance Bill

already represents
a draconian violation

of our right to peaceful protest.

Leave it on, Yeah?
OK.All the time.

Henry will set an antenna
on the surface.

Hope it's worth it.

Nate.

Thanks.

Given the extraordinary involvement
of the Prime Minister's daughter,

her actions today
surely constitute,

by any measure,
a shocking escalation.

It's a justified escalation.
OK, guys, one at a time, please.

Joe?

Isn't your group just exploiting
the profile of a young woman

in order to raise its own?
Absolutely not.

It is about a young woman
placing herself underground,

beneath this village,
to prevent it from being destroyed

by the ill-conceived, wasteful
and dangerous Metro Ultraline.

How do you think the Prime Minister
is feeling right now?

Well, I doubt he's over the moon.

I would imagine that he's
probably profoundly embarrassed
