You will find out their names, the
guests.

Find out who they are.

But don't do it obviously,
Mr Petrukhin.

Be careful.

Ah, Mr Petrukhin, there you are!

So glad you could join us.

Quite a throng, isn't it?

Now, who can I introduce you to?

- Arthur, a moment?
- Oh. Sorry.

Ah, there you are, Mr Petrukhin.

I'm so pleased you could come.

But you're all alone!
Where's your wife?

She wasn't able to come.

Ah, well, that is a pity.

Kathleen! We must go and see...

Oh, yes. Excuse me.

- But, yes.
- Excuse me.

Good evening.

It's quite a turnout!

You must excuse me -
I've taken my hearing aid out,

so you'll really have to shout,
Mr Petrukhin.

I was just wondering
who some of these people are!

- Who's that, for instance?
- I know none of their names, I'm afraid.

Almost nobody, not any more.

- How about you, Walter?
- So few nowadays, so few.

How about him?

I do remember him, as it happens,

because he's American.

A Mr Ottley,

and he has a friend
who is also American, a Mr Durkin.

Ottley and Durkin.

- Mr Durkin?
- Yes?

Mr Durkin, your name was mentioned
to me.

It was, was it?

In what context?

No, no, no context.

I was just asking who
some of these guests were.

- Haven't been to one of these parties before.
- First time, huh?

Yes.

What do you do, Mr Durkin?

What do I do?

I used to be a dentist.

Used to be?

- Sometimes I still am.
- The food is up, everyone.

Time to get to the trough!
The buffet awaits you.

So you met the dentist?

Yes, I introduced myself.

Terrifying, isn't he?
Both a dentist and an American.

By the way, do you like fishing?

Fishing? Yes?

Er... Sometimes, I fish.

Well, that's good, because we have
our annual fishing party very soon.

You must come!

How's our Russian friend?

He was asking who
everyone was.

Hard to choose!

I find I never have that problem.

It's lucky it's the one night
you don't have a party, isn't it?

So you can keep me company.

Yes, Mum. I'd much rather be here
than at a party, though.

But you're managing so well.

Doing the season.

And you see, it's not such an
ordeal, is it?

Not always.

- And you've made some friends?
- Friends?

With some of those people?

But you must've made some friends,
darling?

I'm not a spy.

I don't know how to do this!

Ah. Excuse me.

Hello.

Hello?

Hello. Is anybody there?

Yes, yes. I'm here. Who is this?

FAINTLY Hello, are you still
there?

Hello. Yes. Who is this? W-Who's
speaking?

FAINTLY Hello? Hello?

Is that...?

Is that you, Anthony?

FAINTLY Hello?

Anthony?

FAINTLY Hello? Are you there?

LESS FAINT This is Paul Ledbury.

Paul!

Yes. Yes, I'm here.

I gathered you were asking my
mother about me and Anthony.

I'm afraid I have no new
information, no news.

I would of course have told you if I
had.

Mrs Shaw?

Are you still there?

Yes. Yes, I'm here.
Just hearing your voice,

I didn't know who it was.

Can I see you, Paul?

Paul, just to talk about Anthony.

Just in case you think of something
I haven't,

or in case there's another avenue
I could follow...

I'm still in the South of France.

When I'm back in London,
I'll give you a call.

- You will, Paul?
- Yes.

Mrs Shaw? What's happened?

Oh...

I'm... I'm so sorry.

It was just a phone call.

I made a mistake, but it's all been
straightened out now.

Can I do anything?

No. No, you can't.

You're very kind, but it's all over
now.

Who was it on the phone who upset
you?

Who was on the telephone? That's a
private matter, Mr Petrukhin.

I'm sorry. I wasn't prying,
I really wasn't.

I-I just thought, for something
to upset you that much...

It was just a misunderstanding.
It's all been corrected.

Thank you for your concern.

You see, it's gone.

Mr Petrukhin!
Where is Mr Samuel Petrukhin?

Ah, there you are.
We couldn't find you!

Yes. What did you want?

I just wanted to show everybody
your invention.

Your portable bellboy.

Your people's locator.

You have one on you, do you? I seem
to remember you say you always carry one?

Ah. Yes, I do. I have one here.

So, here it is.

You carry it on your person...

...and if somebody wants you, it
bleeps.

You could be in the farthest corner
of Whitehall,

or in the deepest basement in the Houses
of Parliament, and it still finds you.

A most intriguing invention, is it
not?

This gentleman is full of surprises.

A man of the future.

You're very talkative, my dear!

Didn't anything happen at the party
last night?

No, no.

It's just the anniversary.

Of Anthony. Of him going. Today.

Yes, so it is.

Anniversaries nearly always make one
feel awful, don't they?

When you get to my age, my dear,

you dream about the past a lot.
Nearly every night.

One is suddenly young again

and at some terrible dinner party
with one's parents,

or watching some of the
gawky young men

one was fond of going off to war.

Of course it's difficult, my dear.

It doesn't get any less.

Mummy!

Mummy...

Mummy!

Just ten more minutes, Mummy.

Oh, there you are!
You've caught me being so lazy.

Rather smudged and rather short,
isn't it?

Well, what do you expect?
I've never done this before.

We expected some more names.

Well, I'm sorry, but I'm not a spy!

I've never tried spying on anybody
before.

I've had no training,

I go to this party,

I'm supposed to memorise everybody's
name somehow, magically. Well, I didn't.

No, Guy. You're too near the sofa.

Over by the bin, go on.

By the bin!

Now!

He's a very obedient dog.

And he has rather a large
vocabulary, in fact.

Maybe you should send him.

We will need to ask you to go back.

Yes, once more, Mr Petrukhin.

And then we'll be able to
concentrate on the staff locator

and getting the relevant Government
departments to put in an order.

So one is dependent on the other?
You're blackmailing me, in fact.

No, we are not.

But it will certainly help getting
the orders flowing

if you agree to go back one more
time.

No, I'm sorry.

I will not be blackmailed.
I will not do business like this.

Goodbye, gentlemen.

I've brought something for you,
Hannah.

These are a little reminder
of our memorable night together.

You did these?

I did.

You draw very well.

Blimey! Writing, drawing, dancing,

you do everything, Nicholas!

And I hardly make
any money out of any of it.

It was frightening, wasn't it?

Even though one knew it wasn't real.

There were moments when I thought
I'm not going to get out of this alive.

I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have got
you involved. - No, no.

I lie awake at night thinking about
bombs and rockets.

- I might as well get really scared.
- Well, that's how I drew you.

- Looking petrified!
- No!

Determined to survive,
to get out of there!

Before the show, I've got something
to tell you, Hannah.

I'm going away for a few weeks,

maybe even months, to Italy.

To try to write. Somebody's offered
me a room in Florence.

You're going away?

You bring me these, and then you
tell me you're going away?

- You're almost my only friend, Nicholas!
- That can't be true.

- It is true.
- How do I survive the summer now?

That is the most shocking thing,
Courtney.

It was meant to be shocking.
We needed to shock you.

We're going bust?
Is that what you're saying?

There's a real chance
of us going bankrupt?

Unless we get some orders
in the next few weeks, yes.

We're being undercut all the time
on the hearing aids by the competition.

The cheap ones don't last!
They have no volume control!

- They're inferior in every way!
- And the bleeper's not taking off.

The military have not come through
with their order.

They will.
It's the best idea we've ever had!

Of course. But we can't just wait
for the world to catch up with us.

And we're going to have to take
some immediate action, starting today.

Action?

We're going to have to sack some
staff.

Doreen is selecting them now,
by length of service.

We're having financial problems
at the moment...

These are the people who are leaving
us.

I told them you'd address them,
Mr Samuel,

but if you prefer, Courtney can do
it.

No. No, if anyone's got to do this,
it's got to be me.

I have some bad news.

News that cannot... It cannot be
kept from you any longer.

I have to tell you that we have had
a turbulent few months,

and I know that there have
been some rumours

about job losses flying about...

...but rest assured...

...we will find a way.

I will find a way through this...

...and we will overcome our problems.

Now let's get back to work!

We have to do it, Mr Samuel.

We're not going to do this today,
Courtney.

Everybody's looking very serious for
a Friday night.

What's happened?

A little trouble with the orders.

It's nothing.

It'll be solved very soon.

Good.

What are you doing here?

I just thought I'd drop by.

I came to see you.

Why not?

I thought we could have a little
drink together.

And I need your address, Esther,

because I'm going to start
bombarding you with letters,

if that's OK.

Petrukhin!

I need you, Petrukhin.

Here he is, the little Petrukhin.

He certainly keeps us on our toes.

I'm constantly having to confiscate
his father's inventions.

- Hello, Sasha.
- Mrs Shaw.

I will be over there... if you need
me.

And if there's anything
I can do on the other matter,

I'll be in touch.

I'm so sorry appearing unannounced,
Sasha.

I brought you some things -
some jam and some ginger cake.

I hope you like them.

I just guessed.

It's so very kind of you to come
and visit me, Mrs Shaw.

It's not kind at all.

I have a confession to make, Sasha.

I'm here for another reason.

My son Anthony used to
be at this school.

Did Hannah tell you about Anthony?

Well, if I tell you, will you make
sure you don't tell anyone else?

Your father doesn't know about this.

Anthony disappeared the day after
his 21st birthday,

a few years ago, and nobody's seen
him since or heard of him.

And sometimes I come here,

just in case he's been in touch
with any of his old teachers,

or if they've heard about him
from any of the old boys.

Some tiny piece of new information.

But of course no-one's been able
to tell me anything.

But then some people are very good
at keeping secrets, aren't they,

- however many times you ask?
- Yes.

Sometimes I want to go through
the whole of this place.

I want turn the school upside down,

just in case there's something
there.

A clue.

But of course, that's not possible,
is it?

Anyway, it's lovely to see you
again, Sasha.

Now, I mustn't keep you from your
class now, Sasha.

Yes.

Maybe I could ask someone?
Maybe I could find something out?

Absolutely not. I don't want to get
you into any trouble.

What are you doing here?

They asked me to arrive
a little bit earlier than you.

Mr Johnson was just showing us

what's involved in installing your
pager system at a military base.

Yes, I've shown them what's required.
Given them some cost estimates.

We told you we'd get round to it,
didn't we?

You never mentioned to me
that you were coming here.

Well, I only got the call today.
They said come as soon as you can.

- So I did.
- I think you and I need a word together.

You were discussing business
arrangements without me being present!

We were, yes.

I wanted you to realise

that we are very serious
about your invention, Mr Petrukhin,

because you're so suspicious.

Do you believe me?

Maybe. We'll see.

So you've come here to tell me
you're willing to cooperate?

- You're going to go back?
- Just one more time, yes,

if you really are placing
an order for the pager.

You've received another invitation
from the Shaws, have you?

Yes. To go to a fishing party.

Fishing.

Now that's perfect.
I rather hoped it would be that.

Now, I have a little present for
you.

What is it?

It's just a camera.

You see?

Nothing to be alarmed about.

I want you to photograph all the
guests

that turn up at this fishing party,
as many as you can.

Tell them photography is a hobby
of yours, make it seem natural.

Make it natural? That's impossible.

Oh, and there's one thing to remember
about this particular camera.

It has a very powerful zoom lens,

stronger than anything
on the market at the moment.

So it's best not to let any of the
other guests borrow it, for any reason.

Why don't you give me an ordinary camera?

Wouldn't that be less suspicious?

Oh, and there's also this as well,

but best only to use this
when you're alone.

Take your wife with you,
make a day trip of it.

- Font color= "#00ffff" >My wife won't go back there.
- Then take your daughter.

It has to seem like a nice
family day out.

My daughter! Take her into the middle
of these people who you suspect of...

...I don't know what,
because you won't tell me.

- Take her there?
- She will be perfectly safe, I promise.

- I can guarantee.
- And me?

- And you?
- Am I in any danger?

- Not at the fishing party, you're not.
- But afterwards?

You told me it was best
that I didn't know anything,

so it sounds as if I'm in some sort
of danger if they work out what I'm doing?

- But they won't.
- How do you know that?

Because it's not hugely
likely anyone

would use you as a spy, is it?

We're late!

I didn't realise we had to arrive
so promptly.

Ah!

We seem to be very late!

It is a competition.

It's all deadly serious.
It began at noon precisely,

so I expect you'll be fined
for being late.

Ah, Mr Petrukhin!
We thought you were never coming!

I had no idea it was a real
competition.

No chance of me winning now, is
there?

It seems unlikely this time,
but you never know.

You may have a magic touch
to charm the fish.

They may all head straight
towards your line!

Come on, Hannah.

You're not so mad about fishing, are
you, that you can't come for a walk?

So, how are you enjoying the summer,
Hannah, all these parties?

Don't ask, please.
If I start, I'll never stop!

- Did you have to do the season?
- I did.

So you know all about it.

I do.

My father wants me to marry
an aristocrat,

that's what he really wants.

The last thing I'm going to do
is complain to you,

because my problems must seem
so really trivial compared to...

...compared to you,
and not knowing about Anthony.

Is there any sort of news?

No.

But thank you for asking.

But I have been very busy thinking
and...

Trying to find a new lead?

And trying to find a new lead.

I know it must seem strange,
us having all these parties

when our son's missing, but...

It is strange, isn't it?

You're father is taking pictures of
us, Hannah.

So he is.

But he's miles away!
We'll just be tiny dots!

It's funny,

he's never been much interested
in taking pictures before.

Would you like either of us
to take your picture, Mr Petrukhin?

Absolutely! Let me take a snap of
you.

Something to remember the day by,
hm? Show your wife.

Now, come on, I expect I can manage
it!

We must do that, but in just a
minute.

Those two are always
together.

Richard is Arthur's golden boy.

It's been like that for
years.

All these important men!

I bet they're just thinking
of young women,

all their old conquests.

They all seem to be going somewhere.
Where are they going?

For a drink or a gossip,
no doubt.

Cigars in the woods.

What about the competition?

Ah, the rules are complicated.

My friend, what a splendid-looking
camera you have there!

Yes, it is, isn't it?

The inner sanctum.

The really obsessive fishermen
gather together to work out how to win

because they're fishing in teams
as well as for themselves.

But we don't care about them, do we?

Funny old fishing competition, isn't
it?

Everybody taking it so seriously.

Some of these people did really
important things during the war,

and now a lot of them seem
so stupefyingly dull, don't they?

Maybe that's how I appear to people,
really.

No, absolutely not!

Thanks.

War makes one's thoughts so simple,

so uninteresting.

Somehow I've managed to grow
an imagination afterwards.

I'm going to show you
a secret in the woods, Samuel.

Not what you expected,
is it?

It certainly is not.

I love this vehicle,
rusty though she is!

She has her hidden charms,
you'll see.

Climb aboard.

I trust you won't give away
our little secret?

Of course not.

I come here often, Samuel.
It's my favourite place.

I used to come here with...

...with a friend of mine.

We had some very happy times here.

Lord Wallington has caught a pike!

He won't give up without a fight!
The king of fishes!

Let's see if the old girl still has
some life in her, shall we?

Oh! It starts first time,
that's very impressive!

Come on, we'll take her for a spin!

No idea why I love the old girl so
much,

but she never lets me down!

And there's something amazingly
satisfying

about giving her an outing.

Shall we see which one
of them floats? Who shall we pick?

Which one of the generals
or the others floats?

Who is going to be the lucky one?

- What?!
- Whatever happens,

everything's under control!

Oh...

Bravo!

Well, that woke you all up, didn't
it?

What a beautiful fish,
isn't it?

It's a beautiful angry fish.

Yes, it is.

Are you going to cook it yourself?

Yes, Hannah. Don't look so
surprised!

I used to do lots of cooking
in this house.

Not done so much recently.

So, how are you going to survive
the rest of the season?

By skipping most of the balls.

And telling a lot of lies,
I'm afraid.

I've managed to get away with it so
far.

But I will have to go
to the Queen Charlotte's Ball.

Yes, I remember it well.

I've just had an incredible idea,
Mrs Shaw.

Oh, that sounds exciting, Hannah.

At some of the grander balls,
there are these older people there,

sitting around the edge of the room,
like chaperones.

You wouldn't...

You couldn't come with me,
would you?

To the Queen Charlotte's Ball?

It'd make it so much more bearable.

So you want me to come and sit

with all the old dowagers,
do you, Hannah?

No, no, that's not what I...

It does sound like an incredible
idea.

But I'm not sure
it's going to be possible.

It's nice to see a young
person in this house again,

isn't it?

Ah, Mr Petrukhin!

Come, come and help me feed them.

Kakoye zamechatel'noye sushchestvo.

It roughly translates as,
"What a splendid little chap."

Yes, it's strange how calm
these animals make one, isn't it?

Very necessary at the moment,
isn't it, Mr Petrukhin?

What are you referring to?

Well, both our work, of course.

One always worries about work,
doesn't one?

And also maybe the threat of nuclear
annihilation at any moment.

Little bit troubling, isn't it?

And whether the Russians
will take over the rest of Europe.

And suddenly, there's another
massive army across the Channel.

It won't happen. The Americans would
never allow it, for a start,

and the Russians
don't want to conquer Europe.

Of course, being Russian, you'd know
that.

Well, I have no special knowledge
any more than anybody else,

but that's what I believe.

You're a man of wide interests,
Mr Petrukhin.

The bleeper machine,
photography, fishing,

deaf people, wine,
space satellites...

There's no limit to what you know.

I like that very much.

Come in.

Ah, Petrukhin, what can we do for
you?

I was just giving this to Mr
Tezler.

Petrukhin's handwriting is very
poor.

I asked him to write out
his whole essay again.

It's a small improvement, yes.

But your spelling, Petrukhin,

what are we going to do
about your spelling?

Make it better. I will get better.

Good answer. Well said, Petrukhin.

Is there anything else
we can help you with?

No, I was... I was...

Looking at our filing system?
One day you'll be up there.

Please, will you get up?

Your mother and I want to talk to
you.

Is anything the matter, Dad?

I will see you downstairs.

What, is it?

Your father and I have
received a letter.

- Who from?
- It isn't signed.

You're taking an anonymous letter
seriously?

- You don't know what it says yet.
- What does it say?

It says you were never
received by the Queen,

you arrived late
and were locked out.

And that you've been skipping

many of the balls and parties
that you've been invited to since,

and you've been sitting in cafes

until it was time to come home.

It looks like it was written
by a six-year-old.

Is it true what it says?
And don't lie to us, Hannah. Is it true?

- Some of it is true.
- I told you not to lie.

It's all true, isn't it?

Yes.

Why didn't you tell us?

Anybody can have an accident,
you broke your shoe...

You should never have got
out of the car in the first place.

But then you've told so many lies afterwards,
all those parties you pretended to go to.

- I've been to some of them.
- You've lied to us consistently,

and I will not tolerate that in a
child of mine.

So what are you going to do?

Frogmarch me to these parties?
Get the police to escort me there?

Hannah, we need to talk about this
sensibly, calmly, not to upset each other,

because your father has a very important meeting
today. There's always an important meeting!

- She's determined to upset us.
- I never wanted to do this,

the bloody season. You know that.
But I did it because you wanted me to,

because you said it would mean
so much to Mum.

But it's your future, too!

My future?
You think my future has got anything

to do with those idiotic men that
turn up to these parties?

You don't know that they're idiotic!

That is a particularly
stupid thing to say

since you have been skipping them!

Most young women would give anything
to be in the position that you are in.

Well, then, let them take my place!
I don't belong there, I really don't.

I'm not amazed by all these rich
people and their big houses

and their titles like you are,
all their furniture and their cars and...

- Don't you talk to me like that, Hannah!
- Well, it's true.

That's the life you've always
wanted, isn't it?

It's not my fault you haven't got
it!

And now you want me to marry into
it.

Well, it's not what I want.

And I will not be made
to feel a criminal by you,

because I've done nothing wrong,
at all!

- Where do you think you're going?
- I'm going to stay with a friend.

Just for one night. OK?

Which friend?

I'm not telling you.
You'll just come and get me.

I'll see you tomorrow, all being
well.

But if you try to stop me, I won't.

Hannah, please don't rush out like
this. Hannah! Hannah, please don't go!

- Hannah!
- Hannah!

Hannah!

Hannah! Hannah, come back!

Hannah!

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hel...?

I'm so sorry, turning up like this.

I had a quarrel with my parents
and so...

...I just came here.

I haven't come to stay or anything.

I was on my way somewhere else,
and I just thought...

Oh, yes! Oh...

Your mother is away for a week?

Ah, there you are.

I just need a moment alone
with Mr Petrukhin.

You have something for Mr Field,
don't you?

Yes, I have a camera
and... three rolls of film.

You did take a lot of photos,
Mr Petrukhin.

You can keep the camera.

But I won't be needing it again.

Keep the camera.

Now you are to join Mr Field
at the air base.

What, now? Absolutely.

Mr Petrukhin and Mr Johnson
to see Mr Field.

Thank you.

So, gentlemen, we wanted to
honour our side of the bargain.

You're going to bring this place to
life,

everybody bleeping, everybody
in contact with each other.

You have your first order
for the staff locator, Mr Petrukhin.

Today, it's official!

That's good news!

You don't look very happy about it.

Oh, he's pleased, aren't you, Mr
Samuel?

He is worried about his daughter
today.

No, I'm just taking it all in.

Something odd about this place.

An air base with no planes, for a
start.

They're arriving soon enough.

We'll leave you it.

I'll show you around, shall I?
The full guided tour.

Gentlemen...

...since I've done what you've
asked, I thought I'd return this.

It's such a special camera,
I thought you'd want it back.

No, no, keep the camera.

I thought so.
We're not finished, are we?

There's a catch to all this.

Well, there's always a catch...
to everything.

You're going to keep coming back
for more, setting me new tasks.

Well, that depends.

We still have to look
at your pictures, of course.

Don't worry so much, Mr Petrukhin.

We'll be in touch.

Oh, and good luck with your
daughter!

Who are they?!

The bleeper men!

You're the people
who are going to try and track us,

even when we're sleeping, aren't
you?!

Even when we're down the fucking
pub?! You think we want that?!

You think anybody wants that?!

Nobody will ever wear
that thing of yours, ever!

Not for one single day!

What's that all about?

Don't worry about him. People think
your invention's

going to cause them trouble!

Hallelujah!

So my disgrace will probably last
for months - years, even -

but what the hell.

It could be the end of the world
quite soon,

so why worry about
what's going to happen tomorrow?

We could all be blown up!
Duck and cover!

You know what
they taught you to do at school?

? Duck and cover... ?

Yes!

If the bomb goes off,
hide under the desks.

So we'll all be under the kitchen
table, ducking and covering,

and there'll be
this big mushroom cloud...

Here we are!

- It's party time!
- Woohoo!

- Working on those arms?
- Yes, mate.

Cheers for the help,
by the way, Joel. Cheers.

Right then, let's get
this party started!

- Told you I'd bring it.
- There you go.

Hello, I'm Hannah.

I'm a sort of surprise guest.

Oh, yes, the bleeper girl.

Yeah, we know all about you -
the boss's daughter.

- Well, yes, I am.
- We won't hold it against you.

Not tonight.

Don't ask where we got it.

Or the records.

We're going to wake up
the whole street.

See now, Esther here -
Esther here is a great dancer,

even though
she can't hear the music.

She learnt from watching me!

Well, both of us, more like.

She's saying that neither of us
had anything to do with it!

Maybe I ought to be getting along...

Er, nobody leaves!

Are there more people coming?

No, you'll have to make do with us.

I'm not sure we need any more,
do we?

She's a great kisser too!

- What's she saying? - She's saying that
we could all be dead

by the end of the week.

So, would you like to dance?

Oh, there you are.

She's not back? No, she's not.

How do we find her, Samuel?!

I phoned that girl, Katie, she
sometimes stays with - she's not there.

She's somewhere we don't know.

I've no idea where she's gone.

Come in.

I just thought I'd say goodbye.

I'm about to go, so...

Right.

Goodnight.

- I hope I didn't wake you.
- No, I was very awake.

It's so warm tonight, isn't it?

- And I was just thinking, too...
- About the end of the world?

Maybe.

There are better ways
of getting to sleep, I'm sure.

See you again?

Yes.

Here she is!

Hello, darling.

We're so pleased to see you!

Where have you been?!

With a friend.

No, Samuel.

She's back with us.

Are you really taking
that young girl to the ball?

I am.

It's quite extraordinary
that it's still going on.

The Queen Charlotte Ball...

That ghastly giant cake!

What must foreigners think
of all those young English girls

worshipping a gigantic cake?

Yes, I remember the cake.

When you finally got a piece,
it tastes just like cardboard.

But it will be good to be
amongst young people again.

Here she comes.

Don't look so worried, both of you.

I'll be on my best behaviour.

Nothing will go wrong tonight.

It's so good of you to come to pick her up
from our out-of-the-way neighbourhood.

Oh, please, it's no trouble.

I'm quite excited, in fact.

Stop the car.

I just have something to confess to
you, Hannah, before we go any further.

If you don't want to come,
Mrs Shaw... - No!

I just want to own up to something.

I'm coming with you tonight not
purely out of the goodness of my heart,

but because I've persuaded myself
that there's the possibility

that some of Anthony's friends
will be there.

Certain men return
year after year

because they like all the young
women that are on display.

- I bet they do!
- And there's one boy in particular...

Well, he's not a boy any more,
of course.

...Paul Ledbury.

I've been trying to get to see him
for months.

I just wanted to confess that to
you, Hannah.

Yes, well...

...I'm on a mission too.

To find out who betrayed me
to my parents.

That's the main reason I'm going,
to find that person.

My God. Look at them, Hannah.

They're like ghosts!

Maybe they haven't moved from those
chairs since I was here as a girl.

You don't have to go
and sit amongst them, do you?

Well, that's what's expected.

That's not what's going to happen!

I feel sorry for these girls.

The only thing they're being
encouraged to look forward to is marriage.

Let's take a closer look
at some of these young men.

Ah!

Maybe she knows something.

You think she could be the informer?

- Hello, Ruth.
- Hello, Hannah.

How are you?

I've been better.

Now has anybody here been writing
anonymous letters to Hannah's parents?

Why should we do that?

Why indeed?

I just want you to know that we're
onto you, whoever you are.

And, when we've found you, I'll be
writing a letter to your parents

and then I'll definitely be paying
them a visit as well.

And the one thing
you should know about me

is that I always do
what I say I'm going to.

That was brilliant!
You were fantastic!

It's like being back at school
on the last day of term!

All one's inhibitions seem to go.

Hello there, Paul. So good to see
you.

There's Paul Ledbury.

Paul!

Evening.
I'm sure we'll see each other later.

Paul! Paul Ledbury!

Paul!

Paul?

Paul!

The cake is coming!
The cake is coming, everyone!

Paul. Paul!

Mrs Shaw, what on earth
are you doing here?

I'm delighted to see you, Mrs Shaw,
but we're missing the cake.

So we are. But you looked as though
you were just leaving.

On the contrary, I've just arrived.

You've seen the cake many times
before, haven't you, Paul?

Can I just ask you one question,
Paul?

Please?

Have you spoken to Anthony at all
since he's disappeared?

No, of course not. I would've told
you at once if I had.

Has he ever written to you?

I want to help, Mrs Shaw, of course
I do. But I can't make things up...

Well, nobody wants you to make
things up!

Now, has he ever written to you?

No, I've told you that!

- I think you're lying to me, Paul.
- I'm not.

Why should I lie to you, Mrs Shaw?

I know you may have some code of
honour,

some oath between you
about keeping secrets,

but you are dealing with me now.

You tell me the truth!

Did you ever have an address for him
since he disappeared?

Not for years.
I've not had one for years and years...

But you have an address!

I believe you do!
Do you have it on you?

- Of course I don't!
- I think you might have.

- Is it in your wallet?
- Mrs Shaw, what are you doing?!

Mrs Shaw, this has to stop!

If I have something,
I will send it to you.

You have something.
So you have something, Paul?

If I have something,
I will send it to you, Mrs Shaw.

She's a Jew, isn't she?

Yes.

And they always think they can
do things differently, don't they?

- You didn't curtsey to the cake.
- Yes, I did notice that myself.

Why does an attractive girl like you
not want to curtsey to the cake?

Will you please let go of me?

Are you trying to tell us something?

Perhaps you're a bit too experienced
to do that? In which case...

Will you kindly...
let... go... of me?

I think you should tell me a little
more about yourself, don't you?

Will you bloody let go of me?!

Now I really have made
a spectacle of myself.

If only I'd curtsied
to the wretched cake,

but for some reason I couldn't.

Don't be silly, Hannah.
He got what he was asking for.

Look, lots of girls want to do what
you did. They'll be applauding you.

The letters will be pouring in
to my parents now.

No letters will be written
to your parents.

We frightened them too much
for that to happen.

And if there is a problem,
I will deal with it,

your chaperone will deal with it.

I feel I can handle anything
tonight.

I have my very first lead, Hannah.

So we're here at last,
and the contract's ready for signing.

We're going to do
it in their office tomorrow.

That's quicker than I thought it
would be.

There's a telephone call for you,
Mr Samuel.

- Yes?
- Mr Petrukhin?

Arthur Wallington here.

I'm nearby. Can I drop in and see
you?

Say half an hour?

Ah! Hello. Hello. Hello.

Ah, the home of the staff locator,
I see it at last!

Now, Mr Petrukhin,
it's nearly the end of the day,

why don't you send everybody home?

Is that too much to ask?

Only one glass. Are you not having
any?

I'm not, no.
I'm only staying for a moment.

And I have some very ripe French
cheese...

...to accompany the wine. I've heard
about your fondness for it.

What can I do for you, Lord
Wallington?

I think you know.

Not very hard to guess, is it?

You took an awful lot of
photographs...

...at the fishing competition,
didn't you?

I like taking photographs.

Oh, yes.

Of course you do.

But somebody asked you to take
these particular ones, didn't they?

You're not drinking your wine.

It's a little early.

So are you going to tell me who told
you to take the photographs?

Nobody told me to take them,
definitely not.

We both know they did.

Anyway, it's not particularly
difficult to work it out.

I like to think I'm a reasonably
well-informed person, Mr Petrukhin.

I have some interesting
acquaintances who know certain things

that the general public do not.

And some of these people have
suspicions - very strong suspicions -

about the penetration that has
occurred in our secret service.

What if I was to tell you

that you've got everything
the wrong way round, Samuel?

Simply and utterly
the wrong way round.

And that the pictures you took
along the river bank with this

actually show something completely
different to what you think.

What if I was to tell you
that the people you're seeing in MI5

are not what they seem?

In what way? If I have seen anybody.

They're working for the Russians.

- Your Mr Field is a Soviet agent.
- What?

I only know him through his order
for the staff locator.

He's an agent for the Soviet Union.

What evidence do you have of this
that you can show me?

I don't.

Nothing at all that's conclusive.

But I'm working on it.

I know that you
won't believe me.

- No, I don't believe you. Not at all.
- Of course not.

Why should you?
I wouldn't believe it either.

So you'll need to find
your own evidence, won't you?

Seek it out,
find out who's telling the truth.

Because I know you're not working
for the Russians, Samuel.

But a gentle word of warning.

Don't, whatever you do,
let them see what you're doing.

Because they'll deal with you
if they do.

Deal with me?

Yes.

I will do everything I can
to help you, Samuel.

Oh. Thank you, Betty.

Goodness me. Wonderful.

Ah. We have both tea and champagne,
Mr Petrukhin.

To celebrate the signing of the
contract. And what is even more special?

Miss Godwin here
has provided biscuits today.

We never, ever get biscuits
normally.

The day we sign the contract.

Don't look so serious, Mr Samuel!

This is a big moment - a joyous
moment after all this time!

Indeed. But then we all
show joy differently, don't we?

Never thought this moment
would come, did you?

Someone should
take a picture of the signing!

The first contract
for the staff locator.

Yes, it could even
be of historic interest.

Yes. Yes, I have, in fact,
got the camera in my briefcase.

Because I keep trying to return it,
as you know.

Not snarling at me today, I see.

I'd better go and sign the
contract, hadn't I?

Of course I should.

Why do you understand that?
