Original subtitles

The guy who called me, he knew everything about me. How much did they

£83 ,000.

I can really help you.

This guy stole your money.

Kurt Wiley's advertising for a new carer.

If you get a job, get his phone. He'll prove what he is.

You all right, Mum?

Is that my phone?

Yeah, it was ringing in the sitting room and I...

Right,

I better get Elizabeth to bed.

Oh.

Come on, darling.

You've got so much fright there, don't you? Yeah.

Don't worry about you, but my heart's doing 19 to the dozen.

Yeah. Good night.

Night, Dad.

Sleep well.

Did you go to Sanky's back in the day? I remember it was a big deal, but I never

went. Those days they used to hang around this way.

Different class of fella, you know.

Oh, I didn't mean how that sounded.

Oh, no, no, I get it.

It's weird hearing all those names again.

Is Cheesham Hill still rough?

Yeah. Yeah.

Don't worry, the property developers will be there soon.

I doubt it.

So, he went in here.

Where did he get these?

Planning permission for an extension, council records.

Were you going to break in? He's got a home office, the only room in the house

with a lock. What does that say?

All right, let me explain.

In 2014, an eighth of Moldova's economy was stolen.

Now, the money got moved to lots of places.

Cyprus, the Caymans, Scotland.

They put it in Scottish Limited Partnerships, which means they don't

who owns the companies.

Panama Papers came out. I put it all together.

Some of that Moldovan money got spun through certain companies, and a chunk

it ended up here. Now, one name links it all.

Kirk Wiley.

Xanadu.

What, like Olivia Newton -John?

Used to have her hairdo.

Used to.

Now, Xanadu's the name of lots of Kirk's companies.

But Xanadu Construction Supplies, that's the one I'm interested in.

You have to get in that office. Everything I need to prove what he is,

your money back, it's in there.

What?

So you didn't find anything on the phone?

Well, it's all encryptions and stuff.

What? It takes time to go through his phone, June. And I'm the one taking all

the risks.

Kurt caught me with that phone, and I think I've got away with it. But if you

want me to break into his office as well, well, you're going to have to come

with something better than these stories.

I'm going to be late.

Working a double.

What are you doing that for?

Can't just be you bringing in the money.

Are you working later?

Yeah, look.

My wages are really good. Anything you need, anything for the baby, I'll get

Mum, how good are these wages?

Because the cot's 200 quid. High to 150.

Us is getting a place for us.

550 a month, minimum, on top of my student loan. And I'm going to need to

I'll cover it. No, Mum.

I need to do it myself.

Like you did.

Oh, er... Police called, by the way.

Did they find anything?

Sorry, Mum.

They're going to leave our case on file.

No leads.

That's it closed, and I guess that's that.

Yeah.

See you later, yeah? Yeah.

The mortise has a sprung lap.

The little hook catches the lever system like a key.

Can I just watch the guy film me?

He was the expert you were in.

You're locked to heart surgery, do you?

I can't do this. Too risky. Then steal Wiley's keys.

Well, I'm definitely not doing that.

Okay.

Then this is the only way.

Lizzie?

So, PPI, you could be entitled to...

I was just going to make a brew.

Do you fancy one?

I'd love one.

Thanks, June.

How do you zoom in on this thing?

Move your eyes closer.

It's just business stuff, Dave. No, it looks like business stuff.

I need time to go through these documents, piece it all together.

How's that going to get me money back? Try it, June. It's not easy to prove

stuff. Just have a bit of patience.

All right, I'll prove it to you.

I'll track him.

I work with guys on these forums, June.

One of them's got a magnetic tracker.

Very rare. Really hard to get hold of. You stick it to the bottom of his car.

Once you take it off, I can prove where he's been.

And how will that help?

It'll help me understand how his network runs.

The police won't investigate any fraud under £100 ,000 unless it suggests a

wider conspiracy.

Once I can prove this conspiracy, I can get your money back.

Just give me a chance, June.

Do me one last favour.

I have to plant this tracker.

I promise I won't ask for anything else.

I need you to believe in me, June.

Because I don't really have a lot of people who believe in me these days.

What's that?

It's a dementia tracker.

I had patients that'd wander off in the night and you'd pin it on their clothes

and, well, if you lose them, you can find them.

Is that GPS?

Yeah, it's connected to the phone thingy.

Like an app?

Yeah, like an app.

This is the last favour.

Laura, um...

Lizzie left her planner in the car.

Do you think she's too young?

To get married?

Yeah.

Well, that's not for me to say. That's family, isn't it?

So long as she's happy, yeah?

Yeah.

Don't worry, Mr. Wiley.

I'll walk you to meet your room.

Elizabeth, cup of tea.

Oh.

Right.

Oh, I've done a cuck.

I won't.

Mary, you remember?

Even into his teens.

Do you remember?

He was a strange little boy.

I tried.

Right to help him stop.

Thirteen years old.

Then suddenly he had all these friends.

Brought them to the house.

He'd hidden his wet sheets.

I hung out those sheets for all to see.

I thought it would make him stop.

He told his friends he had a brother.

But they knew.

Didn't make him stop pissing his bed.

It's Father Angus that found a way to make him stop.

Come on, love, let's get you in there. Let's get you in the shower.

Don't worry, mate.

You look great.

It'll be over in a second. Come on, stick with me.

Hey, everybody.

Sorry to hold you up.

Here we go.

Hey,

nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Okay. How do you want it?

Yeah, let's do it.

Hi. Well done, mate.

It's never too late to start again.

Okay?

Well done, everybody.

Sorry to hold you up. See you later.

All right?

Sorry. Give me one second.

If it's raining, you'll need one. I don't need an awning at the door.

I think she had one last year. It looked lovely. Well, that's her.

I don't need a fucking awning.

You get it, don't you?

Oh, yeah.

You just won't look better.

Exactly. She needs one. It's the expectation of June.

You get that.

People can't laugh at her. You know what that's like.

Well, maybe it's OK if she doesn't want an awning in her day.

She's 19.

How can she know what she wants?

I know she wouldn't want to be laughed at.

You've got to let them make their own mistakes.

I mean, my daughter's pregnant and she's dropped out of a course, but it's her

life, isn't it?

She's pregnant?

Hey, congratulations.

Well, the point is, it's...

Well, it's Lady's day, isn't it?

No, I don't mean that you can't have what you want. I mean... You'd better

get that off to Mum. She'll be getting hungry.

Where did you get this?

Mabel were giving it away.

Do you think there's a reason they were giving it away? I'm trying to save where

I can. Look, I told you I'd help.

I'll give you anything you want.

Yeah, well, the last time you tried to help, you gave all that money away to a

guy on the phone.

I think you can see it.

Shall we get that on?

Was your wedding like them?

No.

Then again, I didn't have a dad telling me to spend more.

Yeah, first world problems.

Did you enjoy your wedding, June?

Well, it was nothing like I'd imagined.

We went up, we got the licence, we came back to my mum's and she'd put half a

bottle of champagne in the fridge for us.

Mum says you shouldn't fridge it.

No, she's right, it blew up.

But it was very kind of her.

And you're still married?

Not everyone's as kind.

Is your mum not helping you with this?

Oh, she's been really busy with work.

Could you give me a hand with this?

Er... Yeah.

Yeah, sure.

That would be amazing.

Thank you so much.

Erm... Right, OK, so we're paying for everything on my mum's card.

I want to pick out some gifts for my bridesmaid. I don't think it's

that I use your mum's card. Oh, no, honestly, it's fine. We've got free

Mum lets me use the cards for anything.

Well... I need to check with her if it's over a grand, but otherwise it's fine.

Right.

So, where do we start?

Hold on, I've got a checklist.

Right.

a pram for you today?

No delivery.

It is £645.

That's a bit more respectable.

Have a great day, Mrs Wiley. Thank you.

Could I have a look at that bracelet, please?

It's for my daughter.

She's the one who's having a baby.

£800 at Linton's department store.

Who'd even shop there?

You didn't buy bridesmaid presents at Linton's, did you? No, I would have told

you. It's fine.

I'll sort it out. What did they buy?

A pram and a bracelet.

Probably cloned your card.

You must have got your detail somewhere.

Oh.

I'll check the fuse box.

I'll go check on Elizabeth.

I'll get some candles.

Hang on. How do you play it, then? Lizzie will show us. You go first,

Come on.

OK.

So, never have I ever been drunk.

Right, easing is in. So, if you've ever been drunk, you have a drink. Yeah. If

you've been drunk. Oh, if you've been drunk. Yeah. Oh, right, I get it, right.

Okay, so, never have I ever had sex.

Ah! Right, all right, all right, okay, okay.

Never have I ever kicked a poster in my room.

Never, we weren't.

Harry Styles.

Harry Styles?

Oh, it was Adamant for me. Who? Are you joking, Adamant? Adamant, yeah. I love

Adamant. Oh, no?

Never have I ever had a one -night stand.

Oh, I've totally just realised I'm playing this with my parents.

Never have I ever called someone else's

name during sex.

This game is shit.

I think we should play something else. I think June and I are going to need

another bottle.

Never have I ever kissed a person of the same

sex.

Well, that would be me. So, not me.

Yeah, I'm not explaining that one.

Never have I ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever.

Smoked. Well, we've all had a fag, haven't we?

Never have I ever lied to my boss.

Oh.

Never

have

I ever pretended to be another person.

Never have I ever stolen.

No.

You?

Picking mix and roll worths. Oh, well, if you mean that kind of thing, then...

Never have I ever lied while playing this game tonight.

Ah, someone's telling the truth.

Oh!

June, give me a hand. We'll salvage the freezer.

Mum

thinks

I'm pregnant.

Are you?

No.

She thinks I used her store card to buy this pram.

I mean, obviously I stole the details.

Would you like kids?

Yeah.

I wouldn't bring them back here.

Why not?

I thought he's had his... his thing, and, like, they pretend to be normal.

But... there's something really...

There's some things wrong with him, Jane.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Okay? Okay.

What's happening to me?

Oh, sweetheart.

I'll get you your pills.

Yeah?

And then we'll have a cup of tea. Yeah.

Yeah, this is one of the spoofed texts.

This one looks like it's from HSBC.

Hyperlinked it to a landing page. Looks exactly like the real thing.

By the time they realise it wasn't the bank.

You don't like it?

Oh, I don't want a job. You're not out of a job just yet.

So this afternoon, a couple of these boys are on you. So just go over the

basics, huh?

Do your party piece.

I don't want to have to deal with the accents.

Yeah? I'm not running a democracy.

Oh, Kirk, I'm sorry.

Lizzie's asked me to get something for the wedding and the computer's asking

the CVC.

It's the three numbers on the back of the card.

Oh, sorry.

Thank you.

Dinada.

Dinada.

If you'd help him with the wedding, we'll talk about this later, OK?

June, I've got someone in the cab. Yes, I think we can get through. We need to

follow him now.

OK, so what we're going to do is demonstrate cold reading.

I've only got the number.

01639 is the area code.

So when we're on the call, we want to adopt a friendly accent. So Glaswegian,

Geordie, never Belfast, never Scouse.

If you can't do the accent, then your voice needs to be comforting,

Most of the clients are elderly.

Chris, you ready? Yep.

Good evening, sir. How are you? I'm not buying anything, mate. Don't worry, sir.

I'm not selling anything.

Right. What can we learn from his voice?

His mail, mid -forties, South Wales phone number. Very good. So now you can

whoever you want to be. You can tell them you're from HMRC, bark about unpaid

taxes. That's good for a quick one -off payment.

Or else you can be from their bank and present some security problem. But that

is way, way above your level at the moment. The psychology of the client is

everything.

So, what do 40 -something men in this area worry about?

Health.

Ageing. Pensions. The best thing about pensions is nobody really understands

them. But what's different in South Wales?

His Welsh might not live long enough to get his pension.

Come on!

You're in business, your newspapers should be pink.

Clients in Port Talbot are wary of these calls now. So you use that strong and

stable brand. The government has changed the law.

HMRC has changed the rules.

Front pages of the tabloids are your way into the working class.

Supplements of broadsheets, your middle class worries.

All right.

You mind if I do this?

Continue.

I'm calling from Port Talbot Steel Consolidation. We've recently taken over

pension scheme.

Have our team spoken to you about changes to your pension?

Uh, no, mate.

Can I start by running you through security, please? Can you please confirm

name for me?

Chris. And Chris, can you just confirm the name of your first school for me,

please? Uh, Leak Dragon Academy.

Why else do we ask for his details?

So then we can phone up his bank, pretend to be him and pass security, and

we can take his savings.

You've done your homework.

Yes, Mr. Wilbur is there.

Now you can gamble. It's called negation. You work out the answers

know all the things that it's not.

Chris, sorry, I had the wrong screen up in front of me there. No, your pension

is a defined benefit scheme.

Clients remember the hits, not the misses.

For security purposes, I'm going to need your policy number. Have you got that

paperwork to have? Nobody ever does. They leave the phone, gives you time to

some digging.

Google is God.

People don't like to admit that they don't know what you're talking about. So

basically just confuse them into agreeing.

Chris, if you haven't got the policy number, that's okay.

It's just that these new government changes are going to cost you 30 % of

pot. Bid. Is this legit?

Don't freeze.

Don't be afraid.

How do you answer?

So, you, uh, you...

Put a time limit on completing the deal. Rush the client. But you can't create a

time crisis around pensions. So what do you do?

You... You'd say you put them through to a supervisor. Joe, if they ask if it's

legit and you're talking pensions, offer to post them brochures. But see, you'll

have to do a credit check. Do you want to do this yourself?

Do you know how Aubrey got into this business?

See? you'll have to do a credit check and that will freak them out because

know a credit check will lower their credit score and if they don't

Golden rule.

You're in control at all times.

You've ruined everything.

We had him. You didn't want any part of this. He didn't see us.

And hey, about Wiley.

I hate to say I told you so.

Julie.

Julie.

Is

everything

okay?

I know what you've been up to.

I think there's been a misunderstanding.

A misunderstanding about what?

No, no, no.

About what?

What am I misunderstanding?

Go tell me.

You nearly got away with it, you know.

But you're not a saint, are you?

You're not a saint.

I don't know what you mean. Don't fucking lie to me.

Do you think I'm stupid?

Do you think you can... from me.

Did your daughter like the cram?

The brief that was for you, the one that you couldn't help yourself.

No, no. Stop fucking lying.

You stole from my family.

I

might

not go to the police.

We could draw a line under it.

If you did me a favour.

Yes, Lizzie, if I could use the card and... And she said it was okay.

I will pay it back, I will.

Oh, sure, June, that's fine.

I need you to tell him to a colleague of mine.

Just go with Aubrey, please.

What? You don't have to worry about that.

Where are we going?

Where are we going?

If you let me go, you'll never see me again.

Please.

12th to score for the Acre.

Yeah, alright.

Take the bag to the shop.

Well, I don't... Mr. Wiley wants you to give the bag to the man around there.

I've got a flight in the morning.

Definitely him.

Can we go now?

You should call Mr. Wiley first. Check it's okay.

Kurt can thank me later.

Robertson's 15 -2 to score a second.

I thought we should have an informal review.

Are you enjoying the job, June?

You've been a massive help.

If I need another favour, I might ask you to give me a hand.

If I can't trust you, I'll have to make a decision about how we move forward.

Understand?

Yes.

Who's that?

Hello, Mr Wiley. Oh, shove it up your arse.

PPI, son.

Did you get my text?

Yeah. I'll be sure to tell the police someone's stalking me.

I'm not stalking you.

I'm watching you.

Coming in and out of government buildings.

Have you got a point?

Your company?

Xanadu Construction Supplies.

Doing well?

Fucking hell, yeah.

Yeah, I have many successful businesses.

Mr. Zima will be pleased.

Mr. Zima.

He's a highly respected businessman in many countries.

It must be the amount you pay into Maginco every month.

Yeah.

It's easy when you know what you're looking for.

What would Mr. Zima think if I exposed your fraud network?

Now, I don't know your boss, but I can't imagine he'd like everyone knowing that

side of...

Five hundred and seventy -two grand.

And what makes you think I've got that kind of money?

Your Guernsey company could pull it together in two working days.

Do you have ten?

What? Have a good look at them.

Pay up, or I'll shop you.

Hello, Wiley household?

Just a moment.

June, your brother's calling for you.

Would you mind not giving the house number out in future?

Oh, yeah, I'm sorry, Laura.

Dad?

I can get you money.

business partner or investor, Simon Zima. That's how we get your money back.

What are you on about?

Look, June, I don't hand fraudsters to the police.

I blackmail them.

I've called Wiley. He knows what's what. He will pay.

I've got to get out of here.

No. No.

No, you can't leave.
