We always knew that if we looked after

the planet,

it would look after us.

But we were always more interested in

looking after ourselves.

By 2020, everyone was paying the price.

Global warming was gripping our planet.

Many countries became deserts and a mass

exodus of climate refugees began looking

for sanctuary.

Countries like the United Kingdom

quickly became overrun, forcing us to

shut our borders.

But still, there was no way to escape

the escalating energy crisis as fossil

fuels finally dwindled to alarming

levels.

Yet, our appetite for energy remained

unddeinished.

With no practical alternatives to power

our lives,

the world faced an uncertain future. Our

[Music]

eyes turned to the Arctic and to the

vast oil fields rumored to lie under the

melting ice.

I knew the situation was desperate, but

feared the consequences of drilling

below this fragile wilderness would be

catastrophic.

[Music]

I needed proof.

So when my friend called promising me

the evidence,

I headed north.

[Music]

We're going down there.

Spending your life theorizing about

climate change hunched over a computer

is one thing, Tom. Now it's time for the

sharp end.

You've come this far.

It beats briefing a bunch of suits at

the Polar Alliance.

Let's take it nice and slow, Tom. One

wrong move out here can be fatal.

All

right, let's just make Sure we stay near

the creasse wall. The ice gets more

fragile in the middle.

Okay, let's fire it up.

[Music]

Ah, back in a minute.

got picture.

Okay, it's up.

My god,

this is so much worse than I thought.

The Halo rigs drilling in this area

about 20k north, but they're they're

constantly on the move.

Who else has seen this? Ben,

you're the only one I've managed to

convince to come out here. No one at

Halo wants to know, unsurprisingly. Oh

Must have got stuck on a ledge or

something.

Damn it. Yeah. You secure yourself here.

I'll see if I can swing it free.

Right. So, what do I

Stop me if I fall.

Come on.

How's that?

Nothing.

What's that? The ice is shifting. Stay

against the wall until it passes.

[Music]

Hold on. Hold on.

[Music]

It's okay. It's okay.

I got you. I got you. I got you.

Hey,

hold me up.

Please.

Get me up. Get me up.

[Music]

[Applause]

I think you've made your point.

The Arctic is an unforgiving and

murderous place, Tom. Starting to take

what we're doing here personally.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

What the bloody hell were you doing out

on the ice in the first place, Tom? I

needed to see what was going on out

there firsthand. Well,

that was not your call to make. Our

remit is to check that Halo's drilling

rig meets the terms of their license

agreement. Full stop.

There's a lot more at stake here than a

bloodied drilling license.

Listen to me. You need to get your

emotions in check.

They said that you could have been

seriously injured. You could have put

Halo employees in danger having to

rescue you. Given what I found, that's

completely irrelevant.

As chair of the Polar Alliance, I must

remain neutral, and your job is simply

to present the facts. Can you do that,

Tom? Can you present the facts?

Haven't you got a better jacket than

that?

The Greenland ice sheet is a fragile and

endangered land mass, which is why I

must advise against the renewal of Halo

Oil's drilling license. These images

were taken inside the Greenland ice

sheet last week. They show rivers of

melt water running underneath the

glacia. This means that the sea ice

which holds up the Greenland glacia is

melting at a rate far higher than our

worst predictions. Without the support

of the sea ice, the glacia's destruction

is inevitable, releasing billions of

liters of water into the ocean.

This could desalinate the Atlantic to

the extent that it causes the Gulfream

to shut down, the very mechanism which

brings warm weather to the northern

hemisphere. If that were to eventuate,

the whole of the Northern Hemisphere

could be plunged into a new era of

yearround sub-zero temperatures,

potentially a new ice age.

I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman. My

understanding of the purpose of today's

meeting was that Professor Archer had

some new evidence that he wanted to

present. I I won't dignify what he's

presented today by calling it evidence.

So, let's concentrate on the question of

whether it's new or not.

The Greenland glacial system is in a

constant state of change. It is the

nature of the beast. I'm quoting from

the ice storm cometh, a book by

Professor Tom Archer, published some

eight years ago. What we're talking

about today is the unprecedented rate at

which the melt is accelerating.

By unprecedented, you mean that you and

the other climate change experts failed

to predict it. Just as you failed to

predict the devastating droughts in

Italy and Spain.

Yes, that's exactly my point. What we

need to do is to learn from those

mistakes and try and avert the next

disaster before it happens.

Nobody denies that we are in the grip of

a massive climate change. This is a

worldwide phenomenon and so is the

unprecedented energy crisis that we're

facing. And the answer to that lies in

the Arctic. And as far as Halo's work

there is concerned, Professor Archer has

provided us today with precisely zero

evidence linking our drilling program

with any effect on the glacier.

Well, then you haven't been listening.

While I was there, the sea ice was hit

by a glacial earthquake. And I don't

think it's a coincidence that Halo oil

is drilling a mere 20 kilometers north

of the glacia.

Professor Archer,

you deny you're drilling in a

seismically active area. Halo is deeply

offended by the implication that we

would in any way neglect our

environmental responsibilities.

But that is precisely what you're doing,

Simon. You need to act. You need to

suspend all drilling and mount an

investigation.

The reason that we were awarded the

license in the first place was because

of our impeccable record on green

issues. Our chief executive, Anthony

Kavanagh, two-time winner about Halo.

This is not about Halo. Professor, this

is ridiculous.

It's about whether anyone should be

drilling in. We need to sit down.

Turning this into an argument company.

[Music]

Thank you.

You know, over the years, Halo Oil has

sunk more than 20 wells along the San

Andreas fault in California, one of the

most seismically active areas in the

world.

[Music]

Mr. Kavanaaugh, could I please have a

word?

It's Tom, isn't it?

Yeah.

No hard feelings about what happened in

there, huh?

No. Look, Dr. Fitz was just doing her

job as she sees it. And if you're the

man she says you are, surely you don't

want to be held accountable for an

environmental disaster.

See, Tom, I should understand that you

and I are on the same side. The Arctic

was always going to be drilled one way

or another with the fuel shortages that

we've had. So, I fought tooth and nail

for Halo to get the contract to keep the

cowboys up because you see, Tom,

sustainability is everything to us.

Mr. Cow, could you please reconsider

Of course, I'll look into it. We've put

half a billion dollars into this search,

but if I thought for one second that we

were damaging the ice, I'd pull my

people out of there and never look back.

But we're done.

With due respect, Mr. Kavanagh, you you

are damaging. You are damaging the ice.

What the hell was that about?

I should be asking you that.

We have to work within the system. You

know that as well as I do,

right? So we can keep protecting

companies like Halo.

These things take time. That's the one

thing we don't have.

We've known each other for a long time.

I have never seen you this out of order.

Got to hand it to Kavanaaugh. Using

Sarah Fitch was a brilliant bit of spin.

Put the world's leading environmental

legal consultant on retainer for your

petroleum company.

Listen, I'm sorry, Tom,

but after today's hearing, I have no

choice but to renew Halo's drilling

license. It was a passionate speech,

Tom, but we need more than instinct and

emotion.

So that's it, Tom. If you could have

provided just one piece of irrefutable

evidence that proves that what's going

on in Greenland is because of the

drilling process, then I could stop it

in an instant. Until then, we're in the

middle of an energy crisis, and I can't

tell the prime minister he'll have to

deny people the right to heating next

winter.

At what cost,

Tom? I'm resigning.

[Music]

Really,

Simon? What is being broken today is not

going to go back together again.

Well, I think it's a good thing you're

having this time off.

I'll give my regards to your father.

in position now. Lock down.

Commence drilling.

Hydrostatic pressure is

good.

Listen up. Drills at 2400 ft and about

to hit seabed. Prepare for a little

bump.

Okay, we're all set.

2600

ft.

Nice and steady, Penny. Drill's nearly

at the seabed.

Keep going.

Show me the money.

You're okay.

All right.

[Music]

Drill heads rising.

What the The hell's going on?

It's rising rapidly.

What is it?

Cut the power, everybody. Everybody out.

Get out.

Get them out of there.

Get them out of the hole.

She's going to blow.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

Get him in here. Come on.

Come on.

What the hell's going on?

Blow out. Nothing out of the ordinary.

It looks pretty bloody major to me, Tom.

Happens all the time on oil rigs. Come

on.

The rig looks okay. The boys will clear

the rest of it away.

Dr. Petra, get in the med bay. Keep them

out of sight.

Hi.

You're early.

Well, I see it's chatting and numb your

senses as cheaply as possible this

evening.

Not much to celebrate. I quit.

Tom,

what happened?

I just hit the wall. I keep saying the

same old to the same deaf ears and

I just

This time I was so sure I had a case.

I blew it.

We'd better drink this crap. Come on.

My sweetheart.

All right.

Going to finish our game tonight after

dinner. Millie

Amy invited her up to Connecticut for

the summer holidays.

Amy, the one with the teeth.

So, not only does she not want to go to

the UK in the first place, now she's got

a better offer.

Mhm.

Did you say no?

What choice did I have? Millie, we need

to talk.

What's to talk about? It's a done deal

like always, isn't it?

Look, look. I'm sorry about your

birthday, but granddad's been sick.

Like I said, nothing to talk about,

sweetheart.

No, just no. All my life, you've dragged

me from one country to the other. No

regular school, no regular friends, one

apartment after the other. And now, just

when there's a chance I might be getting

a life of my own, we have to go back to

England to see granddad. Granddad who's

never remembered my birthday ever, or

anything important for that matter.

He doesn't remember birthday. He doesn't

remember my birthday.

So why is he acting like he cares now?

I don't know. Maybe something's changed.

Yeah, maybe.

Millie,

they've got to stop drilling. Talc,

the conservation unit isn't here to make

those decisions. Ben,

we're here so Cavanaaugh can get his

face on the cover of Planet magazine

again.

We're here. That's the point. They get

their PR. We get to monitor the ice.

What's wrong with that?

Men, any sign of our polar bear family?

No, no, no sign. Plenty of sign of what

Halo's doing to their home, though. Oh,

and you'll be pleased to know your mate

Archers just been trying to get the

Polar Alliance to shut the rig down.

Trying.

Sarah Fitch made quite a fool of him.

So, I hear

if they shut down this rig, we're out of

business, too.

Oh, minor detail. I know us losing our

jobs when work is so scarce. But that

had occurred to you, hadn't it?

You know, I just don't get you guys.

I mean, we're supposed to be Halo's

conservation unit.

Oh, come on, Ben. Yet you seem

completely prepared to ignore the effect

they're having on the ice just so you

can protect your own little thieft.

We're not ignoring anything. In the

whole time we've been here, you haven't

come up with one iota order of evidence

linking Halo with the melt.

Yeah, maybe I have this time.

How long have we lost Quinn?

About 8 9 hours at most. Boss,

we'll make sure that is the max. I got

three of my most experienced riggers in

the medbay.

Dr. Petro, how long till they could be

back at work doing what I'm paying them

to do?

They got badly toasted. A few weeks

minimum. I'll

bring on some of the rotation crew.

That wasn't any ordinary blowout. The

guys are worried here.

All right, double pay to anyone who will

stay the course. Maybe that'll settle a

few nerves.

The conservation guys were there when we

were cleaning up. Ben Jameson seems very

close to Professor Archer.

Well, let him call you he wants. We got

nothing to hide.

Yep.

I feel like it's all been for nothing.

Do you know what I mean? I feel like

I've

all the all the time upending us, all

the months away from you and Millie, I

feel like all of it has been for

nothing.

That's just not true.

Well,

it's not for nothing.

You're a good man, don't you?

I'll just I'll just quickly

quickly get it.

I know it's a mistake, but I'll do it

anyway.

Heard you got your ass kicked.

Yeah, he was a disgrace.

Sarah Fitch, don't let her looks fool

you is like a Rottweiler with lip gloss.

Ben, we we've got a pretty bad line. I

can hardly hear you.

Yeah, must be atmospheric interference,

I'm afraid. Got the bad weather closing

in here.

Look, listen, Tom. I've got it. Okay,

I've got everything we need to shut them

down.

That's brilliant, Ben. But I can't help.

I' I'd quit.

Look, it's far worse than I thought. I'm

I'm running some tests now.

Ben, can you hear me? I've resigned from

the Polar Alliance.

You what?

No one from Halo or the Alliance or from

anywhere listen to a thing I said. Okay.

You and I are alone on this.

Tom, listen. You can't give up on me

now. Okay. Not now.

Look, I'd love to help, but I'm out of

the picture now.

Yeah, but this is beyond doubt. Okay.

Listen,

I need you to meet me. 82nd floor of the

north building, Ellsworth Street East.

Okay. The

meeting is going to last 14 minutes.

Tom, do you copy that?

No, I don't understand. Ellsworth back

up. You need me on the 82nd floor of the

North Building. Ellsworth Street.

Meeting is going to last 14 minutes.

Okay.

What meeting, Ben? I

I couldn't get there. Sorry.

Tom.

Tom.

What was that about?

The weather's cut communication.

Regal will be off the air till it

clears.

I'm not going.

I've quit. I'm not going.

Tom,

you can't not go. You have to go and

find out what Ben's talking about.

I'm coming with you and Millie.

I'm not I'm not with the Polar Alliance

anymore. It's not like I can just go out

there on my own.

Why is there some way that you can get

yourself?

No, there's not. Okay, there's not.

So, you're just going to walk away?

This is it.

That's not who you are.

be in London by Tuesday for Millie's

birthday.

Mills

Millie,

sweetheart.

[Music]

[Music]

Your timing really sucks. Sarah, sorry

to cut into your downtime, but um I need

you back in Greenland, I'm afraid.

I'm do there till next week.

There's been a blowout at the rig.

Nothing serious.

Gas pocket.

Gas?

Yeah, I think we're getting closer.

But the way Archer came after us at the

Polar Alliance Forum, I'd just feel

better if I knew you were there making

sure no one finds a way to twist this,

you know.

Okay, I'm on it. And by the way, I

thought we had an agreement about this

rock climbing.

It's what I do, Anthony. Keeps me sane.

You're important to me, Sarah. I worry

about you.

A go.

[Music]

Come on. You're going to miss your

flight.

We know.

Oh, it speaks.

My mistake won't happen again.

Darling, you've got a plane to catch,

too. We can we can take care of

ourselves.

Okay. I love you.

I love you, too.

I love you.

We'll see you soon.

Be careful out there.

Could have been a bit nicer. I'm sorry.

We got about a half hour window here.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Sorry, there's always one.

Professor Archer.

Dr. Fitch, what are you doing here?

I'm trying to beat the weather. What are

you doing here?

I'm just exercising the Polar Alliance's

right under your licensing agreement to

make regular monitoring visits.

Please. You were out here 2 weeks ago.

Will you get it in your head? Halo isn't

doing anything wrong.

You keep saying that you might not

believe it.

You're out of your depth, Archer. You

should have realized that by now.

right. We were here for the Olympics.

And what have you been doing in the

7 days. I'm married to a British

You need to register at the European

Yes.

Okay. Move on.

Really? Come on.

Millie.

Where's Tom?

Something came up. But he will be here

by Milliey's birthday.

Work,

isn't it always?

You can't blame him for being

passionate.

Oh, no. It's one of the things I love

about him.

Not my fault, I'm afraid. He gets all

that from his mother's side. Rest her

soul.

So, where exactly is he?

yet? Have you? Millie

Steven,

we saw this man get arrested at the

airport. I knew they'd ramped up

security at the start of the European

drought, but this was horrifying.

INP were they? Immigration and

nationality police.

They're getting really tired about who

they allow in. Do you know they're

talking about chipping non-nationals at

all ports of entry? Microchips

under the skin like an injection.

It's a brave new world, kids.

[Music]

Sarah.

Hey, Telk.

Weren't expecting you out here for a

while.

Yeah, it's a day for surprises. Did you

know that Tom Archer was coming?

The Polar Alliance don't tell us what

they're up to.

What about Ben Jameson? They're pretty

tight, right?

Well, most of the time Ben doesn't tell

us what he's up to either.

Tull. Tom,

nice to see you again. Is Ben around?

Catch you later, Tikk?

Yeah, we'll do.

No, he's out on the ice. Do you know

when he'll be back?

Your guess is as good as mine. He left

this morning without logging a root map.

Damn it.

What's going on?

If you just wanted to talk to Ben, we do

have a consink.

I'm just following up on my last visit.

I have to be in England soon. There was

a window. It's pretty routine.

Fine.

I'll suit you up a bit.

Here

we are. Home sweet home.

I want Archer off my rig.

You know, Anthony, you're really

starting to worry me.

No, I'm sorry.

Was getting a little tired of this. I

knew his friend Jameson still be in his

bonnet about us,

which is why I rather needed you out

there. We need to know what sort of

nonsense they're going to throw at us

next and have our answer ready. We can't

let them shut us down now. Not at this

stage, even for a day or two.

Reserves are virtually dry and the price

of oil has just hit an alltime high.

If you throw him off the rig, the Polar

Alliance will start thinking that he's

actually on to something.

No, you're right.

You're quite right as always.

Don't worry. I can handle him.

Oh, I never doubted that. Not for a

moment.

You know, last year we had a guy who

lost a thumb straight off the

knuckle, but the bonus of working up

here, plenty of ice to pack it in.

They managed to find a thumb. I did a

patchup and hello sent him back to the

US for full surgery.

You're talking about Michael?

Since the accident, he can't play the

piano.

Yeah, but if it hurt him before, that'd

be a blessing, right?

You must be Tom.

Yeah,

I'm Tanya. We didn't get to meet last

time you here.

Kiwi.

Get out of here. The other one. Aussie.

I always say Kiwi when I'm not sure.

It's the same with Canadians. Pisses

them off when you presume they're

Americans.

Be careful not to get too pi. Tanya,

remember this was the Joker who tried to

get the Polar Alliance to shut this

operation down.

Look guys, I just want a quick word with

Ben and then I'll be gone. Right.

Like I said before, who knows when he's

likely to put in that appearance.

We gave up trying to predict what he'd

do. A long time ago.

Millie likely to be joining us.

Maybe just give her a little space for a

while.

Yes. I rather got the feeling she

doesn't exactly see this as the trip of

a lifetime.

Anyway,

so tell me about the hospital, Steven.

The storm in a teacup. Couple of dizzy

spells lately. You know how quacks are

ingrown toenail. They're going to bung

you in for tests.

Now, don't spare my feelings. What do

you think?

It's not bad at all.

We're getting there.

It's good to see you.

What's the deal with this archer guy?

He's got some balls. I can tell you

that. Turning up here after trying to

get it shut down.

I wouldn't worry about it. He'll be gone

soon.

It was Jameson. Guaranteed. He was

hanging around after the blowout. Yeah,

but that was no big deal.

Oh, yeah. You should tell that to the

guys in medbay.

There were injuries. Why wasn't

Kavanaaugh told about that?

Of course he was told. Nothing happens

on this rig he doesn't know about.

I talked to him yesterday and he thinks

a blowout was minor.

Yeah, well, it was. Couple of guys

superficial wounds.

Three of my guys got hurt.

Three? Okay, no biggie, Sarah. These

things happen on oil rigs all the time.

Doc will give you the lowdown. Nikolai.

Superficial. Yes. I expect them to be

back at work in a day at most.

Okay then.

Harold.

Hey, can you hear me?

I'm Sarah Fitch, Halo Oil's senior legal

rep. It's about the blowout.

I already talked to Quinn. He told me

not to talk to anyone.

Harold, I'm not anyone. I mean, I'm

ahead of legal affairs.

Now, I know you don't get sulfur dioxide

base burns from a regular blowout. Can

you tell me what happened in the drill

room?

Look, I don't know. And 100 ft into the

seabed, there was a gush of really hot

water.

Pressure continues to mount on the

world's oil companies. As the energy

crisis enters a new phase, consumer

groups have demanded transparency about

remaining reserves in a bid to alleviate

public fears. However, violent protests

across America have escalated in

response to the continuing rise in

energy prices. Several people have been

injured in demonstrations against the

soaring cost of food and fuel. The

president of the United States has

appealed for calm and reassured the

public that every effort is being made

to solve the energy crisis.

Ben, it's Tanya. Do you copy me? Over.

This is the way he is.

Okay. Thanks.

Nobody.

Still pretending this is a routine

visit,

You turn up out of the blue with a

excuse for being here. Now I

find you going through Ben stuff.

Look, Tullik, I'm just doing my job. All

right. I'm trying to protect this

environment.

How about checking in with me before you

start nosing around?

Look, you've just made it abundantly

clear that I shouldn't rely on you for

anything.

Despite what you may think, we are doing

important work out here. And I'm not

going to let you stuff that up.

And since we're talking about each

other's jobs, I'm pretty sure yours

doesn't involve snooping through

people's personal property.

Okay.

[Music]

Hi, stranger.

How are you, sweetheart?

You're still on the rig, aren't you?

Look, I'm sorry about Milliey's

birthday, but I've got to stay out here

a bit longer. I haven't managed to catch

Ben yet.

He's out on the ice somewhere.

Tom,

I hope what you're doing up there makes

all this worthwhile. That's all I'm

going to say.

Ben's on to something. Trust me,

sweetheart. I need you to do me a favor.

Can you access his message from the hub?

Just the last bit.

Yes. Hold on.

Okay, he should be on now.

I need backup. Okay, I need you to meet

me uh 82nd floor of the north building,

Ellsworth Street East. Okay, the meeting

is going to last 14 minutes.

Tom, what's that about?

Okay, it's code for a map reading out

here somewhere.

[Music]

Elwood Street East 14 minutes. That's

the line of longitude.

North building 82nd floor. That's

latitude. Okay. It's less than 10 miles

from here.

But Tom, you can't go out there alone.

I'll be all right. I'll be all right.

What are you doing in here?

And um could you uh remind me? Don't let

me forget to pick up some duty free for

Millie. Just quick call to my wife.

This area is restricted. You want to

make a call, you go through the Polar

Alliance comms.

Okay.

And you Okay, that with Quinn first.

Okay. Can I just finish this call?

Make it fast.

Tom, what's this about?

It's just better if nobody knows what

I'm up to out here.

You can't do this on your own. If that's

what's happening, get out. Get out. Come

here and just let the Polar Alliance

sort it out. I hope the polar alliance

is toothless.

Just trust me one more day. I promise.

I've got to find Ben's evidence. It's

the future of the Arctic. The whole

planet's at stake.

Come home.

Please come home.

Bye.

North 82 East 14. Got it. What am I

supposed to be looking for?

If I knew that, I wouldn't need to send

you out there, would I?

How'd you get these coordinates?

Keep your enemies close.

You think I'd let the Polar Alliance on

my rig unmonitored?

No, no, no, no.

I need to know what they think they

found out there.

There's too much at stake here,

Anthony. What about the

Heat.

[Music]

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

That's got to hurt.

Come on, Ben. Where are you?

Where did you learn to read a map?

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

Are you going to help or just watch?

Is that a serious question?

So, where are you from?

I know Italy, but what part?

Well, doesn't matter. It doesn't exist

anymore.

Sorry.

Was it really as bad as they say?

Your father's a climate scientist.

You don't know.

You live with it all your life. It gets

a little, you know,

boring.

No.

Gets a bit like there's never anything

else to talk about.

I was only 10 when it started.

My father said that we had never had a

summer that hot.

I thought it was beautiful

until

October came.

Then November, still no winter.

It was at Christmas

when people started to panic.

The food and water ran out. Reservoirs

blown dry.

Riots.

Everyone tried to head north.

And then they shut down the borders.

If it wasn't for your grandfather,

I would be dead.

You know, it was Tom's idea to plant

these vines.

When he was a student,

everyone thought he was mad, including

me.

He's always had a knack for being ahead

of the game.

So, it's one endless glorious summer

now.

Yes, but at what cost?

I can't deny it. I love my life here.

And honestly,

if I thought it meant some respect for

those poor buggers in southern Europe,

I'd go back to the way things were in a

shot.

What happened? What's going on?

S found him.

It's Ben Jameson. She found him on the

ice.

What happened?

Taken by a polar

apparently. Get him to med.

I can't think of anyone less likely to

let himself be taken by a polar.

You turn up here unannounced. I find you

poking around in Ben's room. You were

out on the ice this morning near where

he was found.

You join the dots.

What does that mean?

I mean, that's absurd.

Ben's my friend.

Are those Ben's things?

This is all that he's left behind. A few

specimen jars.

[Music]

Hey,

[Music]

man.

[Music]

All

[Applause]

right.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

This organism shouldn't be in the Arctic

Ocean. If it's linked to the drilling,

we should stop until this is fully

investigated.

No. What we have to do is not overreact.

Now, think about it. What you have is

some dubious test tube sample from an

even more dubious source. Let us not

discount the possibility that he set you

up to find it.

I don't think you understand. Ben

Jameson died here today.

No, I am aware of that and it must have

been horrible for you.

I'm thinking of um setting up a

charitable donation in his name.

I know the blowout was a lot worse than

you told me.

Sir, we are this close to bringing that

field in. This close. Don't let me down

now.

Anthony, you're not listening to me.

Thank you.

Tom should be here. He promised your

daughter only turned 16 once. Funny

thing about this family,

we never seem to be able to get the

things that matter right, do we?

Ah, here she is.

The birthday girl.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present the

delightful reason that we are all here

this evening, Millie. Happy birthday,

darling.

[Music]

Hey,

I'm sorry about your about Ben. I know

you guys were close.

Does this mean you're leaving or?

Why would you presume that?

I think we should share information.

You must be joking.

Oh, so you've identified it then, have

you? What was in the sample?

You have to have the right password.

No one's been straight with me since I

arrived on this rig. I don't like being

lied to, and I don't like being used.

Well, then you should have thought about

that before you started working for

Kavanaaugh.

You tell me where you got the sample

from and then I will tell you what's in

it.

Excuse my skepticism.

You first.

There ara microbes that thrive in high

water temperatures. Did you know there

was an accident on the rim?

I think the drilling's opened up a

hydrothermal vent and superheated water

is being forced out.

So hot water is flowing out from the

ocean floor.

It's going to melt the hell out of the

sea ice. We lose the sea ice. There's

nothing holding up the Greenland glass.

We lose that. We lose the Gulf Stream.

Your prediction could come true. Can the

whole northern hemisphere could freeze

over?

So Aa,

that's the evidence.

Where did the sample come from?

Ben must have found it out of the ice.

North 82 East 14.

Your calls are being monitored.

You were a little off course, by the

way.

What did you find there?

I found Ben.

We need to go out there. We need to go

out to where Ben found them out.

We

We get images of this hydrothermal vent.

We prove that it's melting the sea ice.

And then we go to the science.

Sarah, you do realize that this means

that Alen will be shut down, don't you?

Okay, agreed.

Doesn't mean we have to like each other.

Also agreed.

Oh, granddad.

I'm sorry. It's a bit of an antique.

Just like you. A granddad.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm so so glad you

could all be here tonight to celebrate

the birthday of my granddaughter.

Um,

16 years old. What can you say?

Two men around the back.

You can't just force your way in here.

We have a warrant,

Steven.

Right. Nobody

hell's going on.

Everyone stay where you are.

Stay calm,

Steven. Archer.

That's right. Yes.

This is a search and detain notice for

your premises. I need IDs for everyone.

There are no illegals here.

Yeah. Well, he doesn't look British.

His mother is English. It's all in the

paperwork.

What about these two?

You mean my daughter-in-law and my

granddaughter?

Documents.

Excuse me.

there.

These are all fake.

Look, these people don't represent a

threat to anyone.

Get all these in the van.

He can't do this.

I'd stay out of this if I were you. Just

sit down.

All in the same

inhaler.

[Music]

He's getting away. after him.

[Music]

He won't get far. Somebody will spot

him.

Not everybody's prepared to sell their

country down a river.

Take a look at this, sir.

Well, well, looks like we got another

one.

The officer at passport control gave me

a week to renew it. That was before your

daughter helped the illegal escape.

She goes with the rest.

It was my help.

You leave her alone.

Come on. Come on. Let's get out of here.

Come on.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

[Music]

Heat.

Take me to the airport, Jack. Need the

jet ready in 40 minutes.

[Music]

Should be over there.

[Music]

My god.

We need to hurry. There's some bad

weather rolling in.

Professor,

you okay?

Yeah.

You sure?

You can throw me down a torch.

Okay, don't move.

Tom.

[Music]

I'm throwing down a rope.

Tom.

Tom.

Professor

shouldn't be here.

I've never seen anything like this. It's

all melting. We should go back.

This is crazy, Professor. I really think

that we should just go back now.

Let's just go.

Don't move.

If this gives way, we're in the Arctic

Ocean.

Oh my god.

Very slowly back.

You can use thermal vision, sir. What?

Turn off your torch.

Heat.

Heat.

If all of this mounts, there'll be

nothing supporting the great cast.

This is exactly the scenario that I've

been talking about.

Never listen to me. We

got the evidence. Can we go now, please?

We really need to get out of here now.

[Music]

[Music]

You still think Ben was an accident?

Are you okay?

You

Hello one, this is Fitch. Can you hear

me? Hello one, this is Fitch. If you can

hear me, come in, please.

Dad, there's nothing.

They never reach us in time. Anyway,

this whole thing's filling up with

water.

It's got to fill up.

There has to be a way out of here.

We're under 20 ft of ice.

Not everywhere. There's the melt hole.

The melt.

We could swim out and come up through

it.

No, no, no, no. We'll

It's about 10 m. We would never make it.

If

we stay here, we die.

It's a chance.

It's our only chance.

It has to be close. We find it, we swim

out. At least we know the water's not

going to be freezing.

And here I was worried about holding my

breath long enough.

Come on.

Oh god.

We can do it. Some deep fries. Very deep

fries. And they kick really hard.

Okay. Okay.

Okay. Here we go.

One,

two,

three.

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

[Applause]

S

[Music]

come Come on.

Come on.

Come on. We have to get out of here.

We're going to freeze.

We have to get to this.

Look out.

This way.

[Music]

Tom, come on. Come on.

Where is it? I can't see it.

There it is.

Come on.

Take this. Okay, next.

Okay, come on.

Go, go, go.

Watch out.

A

heat.

Thank you very much. Stand by.

Thank you, Tanya.

So, where are they?

We don't know.

They took one of the Scados and uh Well,

no one's seen them since.

You mean they've been out on the ice all

this time?

Well, I've been on the comms for hours

trying to raise them.

Queen called the search parties in.

Well, anyone who goes out there

searching in this is going to end up

needing a rescue of their own.

It's a white out. You can't see your

hand in front of your face.

Halo 1, do you copy me? Over.

Sarah, it's Tanya.

Do you copy me? Over.

Oh, holy

Good to see you two. Get him inside.

Come on. Get him on

right away.

I won't lie to you, Sarah. This

frostbite is pretty bad.

Take this.

It should help.

[Music]

It's too soon to say if I can save your

fingers.

She's exhausted and a little

hypothermic,

but one frostbite is pretty serious. She

may lose a finger, maybe two, but she's

strong.

We should let her sleep.

All right, Duck.

How you feeling?

My coat.

What?

In the pocket.

When did you get that?

Uh, you know, when I drown.

I figure we'd need it. So,

are we going to play this?

I think we give the evidence to Peterson

as soon as we're off the rig and get

Kavanaaugh shut down.

We've covered a 20 mile quadrant.

We've got probe drills every 100 m.

Drill deeper, Mr. Quinn. and on the next

24 hours. There are limits, boss.

The only limitations, Mr. Quinn, are

those we impose on ourselves.

With oil reserves reportedly at critical

levels, several countries, including the

United Kingdom, have been forced to

ration energy supplies, medical

facilities, and emergency services

remain unaffected.

They

get a box of loaded

Okay, you guys move it and get those

pipes lowered.

Did you feel that?

They're drilling.

It's locked.

Hello.

Hello.

Hey.

Damn it.

Hey.

Hey,

can anybody hear us?

Hurry up. Get

What?

I'm going out through the window.

No, Tom.

Sarah, we don't have a choice. Tom,

somebody out there is trying to kill us.

I

If we don't stop them from drilling,

we're going to be dead anyway. Now,

listen. Keep warm. I'll be back as soon

as I can.

Heat. Heat.

Get

out.

[Music]

Stop.

Hurry up.

Oh my god.

Let's get back inside.

Come on.

He's been with me for many years on

countless rigs more dangerous than this.

To meet his end in a simple fall, it

just beggars belief.

I guess you never really know how or

when you'll go, do you?

All right,

somebody give me some good news.

Well, we're down to 3,500 ft, boss. I'm

drilling. Cover up, your drilling is

opening up thermal vents.

I'm really beginning to run out of

patience. Do

you know what this is?

Ara.

They only survive in high water

temperatures.

And

they're thriving out there.

You're raising the bloody temperature of

the Arctic. Every foot you drill makes

things worse.

Thank you, Tom.

You need to shut this rig down now.

I've been out there. I've been on the

sea ice. I've seen it with my own eyes.

Any environmental qualms you might have,

Archer, they are a drop in the ocean

compared to what will happen if we run

out of oil, famine, wars, and

apocalypse. Far worse than anything you

or your green buddies could ever

imagine. And the answer to the world's

energy problems is right under our feet.

We just need time to find it.

We don't have time.

Just like you don't come on my rig and

stop me doing my job. People's lives,

whole countries are at stake.

You're mad,

Anthony. Do you have any idea what kind

of damage you're causing here?

Come on. We all caused this. Global

warming, climate change is all a result

of mankind's reckless abuse of the

planet. I didn't create the demand. I

just supply what everyone needs. So take

a look at yourself. It's not just me

that's responsible. It's all of us. And

that includes you. And it certainly

includes you.

Get him off my brick.

He works for Polar Alliance. He's as

much right to be here as you do.

Well, that's not exactly true, is it,

Professor?

No, I resigned.

You what?

Professor Archer is trespassing. And

because I decided to terminate your

contract, so are you. Get him off my rig

and take the damn lawyer with him.

Kavanagh, come on.

Heat.

Heat.

What was that?

They've hit a thermal vent. It's going

to break out the sea ice. Quinn, you

need to evacuate this rig. Do you

understand? You need to get everybody

off this rig now. Sound the siren.

Do something, Quinn.

Get down to the hauling bay. Get down.

Listen to us. Quinn.

Quinn. Quinn. Stop me from drilling

this guys.

Let's go.

Boss,

boss, we got to abandon the rig. No, we

stay here, Quinn.

No, it's too late. The ice will take the

weight.

Hey. Hey. Where are you taking him?

To the lockup until the chopper takes

him out. Are you kidding me? All of you

evacuate now.

Come on. Let's get out of here. We never

lost a Rick before.

We could get handle one out of this.

Don't let me down now, Quinn. We need to

move the rig to safer ice. You drive.

Well, we're going to have to jettison

the drill.

[Music]

Stop

the chopper. We can't take off in these

conditions. Follow me.

[Music]

Mean drive is operational.

Good work.

Hang on. This is going to get rough.

The slow catch. It's our only hope.

[Music]

Go down. Move. Move it.

Good man. She's turning. She's turning.

Release it from the ring.

Sarah, you die.

Okay.

Give me a hand here, Charlie.

Where are the keys? Where the hell are

the keys?

What are you doing, criminal? He's not

coming. Let's go.

The ring's pulling us under.

Come on, Tom.

The ice. It's coming in.

Oh god. Come on. Come on.

We got to get out of here. Get out. Go.

Go.

Nobody shing

there. Nothing we can do for them.

She's going down.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. Let's go. Jesus.

Where's Tikk?

Come on. Go, go, go.

We're not going to make it.

Sarah, you need to go faster.

I'm going as fast.

Just do what you can.

Come on.

Come on. Come on.

Keep going.

Oh god. Oh god.

It's not stopping.

What?

It's not stopping. Oh god. Come on. Come

on. Come on.

Hello. Can anybody hear me? This is Tom

Archer. Halo one rig has been destroyed.

The Greenman Glacier is next. Can anyone

hear me?

Unlike the weather office to make house

calls. Minister,

come in.

We need your eye on this as soon as

possible. Minister,

this satellite footage was taken over

the Arctic an hour ago. Blue as ocean,

white as Iceland mass.

It's a mistake. That's solid ice.

There's no ocean now.

There is now. We sped up 30 minutes of

satellite feed.

The satellite shows a sudden and

catastrophic loss of sea ice over the

Arctic. At first, we thought it was an

imaging malfunction, but

we have no rational explanation.

Halo oil have got a rig about 20k from

the edge of the glacia.

We tried to call them, but all lines of

communication are down. Didn't Professor

Archer argue that if the sea ice were

lost, the entire Greenland glacia would

collapse?

[Music]

The huge volume of fresh water released

by the melting glacia could desalinate

the Atlantic to the extent that it

causes the Gulf Stream to shut down.

If this happens, the whole of the

northern hemisphere would be rapidly

plunged into a new era of year round

sub-zero temperatures, potentially a new

ice age.

What shall we do, sir? Minister,

you need to get your entire team on this

right now.

Where are you going?

To try and explain this to the prime

minister. Anita.

Yes, sir.

Get Tom Archer on the line for me. He's

at his father's place. I need him in

now.

Ser,

we really need to move.

Oh god. Come on. Come on. Come on.

[Music]

We've got to get off the sea ice. This

piece of junk won't go any faster.

[Music]

[Music]

kind of landed behind me here.

Next.

How long will I be kept here?

Once you've been processed, you'll await

deportation back to your country of

origin. That could take days. Could take

weeks.

Weeks.

Right. Check the list of context. Sign

at the bottom.

Not making a very good start, are we?

[Music]

The Dockland's detention center. That

That's all your people told me.

Jacqueline Archer.

A r c h e rad

look.

Just just don't put me on. You

have to see this

disaster centered in the Arctic Circle

near Greenland. Various environmental

agencies are suggesting that thousands

of square miles of sea ice are beginning

to break up. The cause is as yet

unknown, as are any casualty figures

from populated areas of this polar

region. That's what is. We will bring

you more on this breaking news story as

it develops.

Hey, hello.

And in the wake of the ongoing

environmental crisis,

Jacqueline Archer, you must be able to

provide some information.

3 million square kilometers of ice are

being dumped into our ocean system. If

all of the ice melts, we anticipate a

global rise in sea levels of more than 7

m.

7 m.

And it's not just us.

It seems likely that our weather system

will be affected. Temperatures will soon

begin to drop.

It's unbelievable.

How long have we gone?

Because of climate change, the sea is a

lot warmer than it used to be. The

glacial ice will melt quickly,

compromising the Gulf Stream.

Why didn't you warn me about this?

Professor Tom Archer described this

exact scenario in the briefs that I sent

from the Polar Alliance. Do

you know how many ministerial briefs I

get on my desk every day, Simon? You

should have beaten down the door to

deliver this.

With respect, Prime Minister, we had no

concrete evidence. GCHQ has been

monitoring the situation in Greenland,

but there was no way of knowing.

We need a multi- agency response.

Evacuate all areas at risk. Raise the

flood barriers.

We'll try and arrange a call at the

White House. Yes, but I want a meeting

with Cobra in 20 minutes. Emergency

response room. Simon, you're going to

have to get people up to speed on this.

[Music]

[Music]

Sit down.

[Music]

I know my rights. I have rights.

You're an illegal immigrant. You don't

have rights.

[Music]

Steven Archer.

Mr. Archer, it's Simon Peterson. I'm the

Minister of the Environment. Can I speak

to Tom, please?

He's not here.

I need to reach him urgently. Do you

know where he is?

He's working in the Arctic.

In the Arctic? What the hell is he doing

back there?

His wife said something about an oil

rigger.

Um,

well, if you hear from him, can you get

him to call me immediately?

There have been news reports. What's

happening up there?

The details are still sketchy. We We

don't know exactly.

Tom's daughter is staying with me. She's

very, very worried. And the INP have

arrested her mother. Is there nothing?

I'm sorry, Mr. I'm going to have to go.

Millie,

get your coat.

We're going somewhere

to find your mother.

Granddad.

[Music]

We return you to our breaking news

story. Monitoring stations confirm that

the Arctic sea ice continues to suffer a

massive and total collapse.

We can do without that.

Your father's a lot more resourceful

than you might think.

I've been giving him so much crap

lately.

That's what children do to their

parents. It's your job.

He knows that.

You're doing Great.

Walk in the park.

Don't look down. Professor,

just follow my lead. Come on, let's go.

Okay.

Come on. Keep it up.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

Take this.

[Music]

to try and get your exit.

I'm trying.

Can't put yourself up.

I can't do it.

I can't do it.

Not slipping. It's slipping.

[Applause]

[Music]

Need a hand switch?

Where the hell did you come from?

KJ.

[Music]

[Music]

We need to get to Cobra.

What is it?

North of Scotland, the temperature is

already below freezing. The cold weather

from the north is colliding with the

warmer currents in southern Europe.

We're getting reports of force four

tornadoes touching down on Dorset,

Hampshire. Sorry.

What's this?

It's the biggest cold weather front

we've ever seen over the UK. The Gulf

Stream shutting down.

It started

How about we save introductions for back

at the ranch?

Okay. This whole shelf's going to go any

second.

[Applause]

[Music]

These images were captured by our news

teams over the past few hours following

the collapse of the Greenland glacier.

As violent weather patterns continue to

spread around the world, experts are

alarmed at how quickly the conditions

have deteriorated. Many are at a loss to

predict what might happen next.

collapse of the Greenland glacier

earlier today, international aid

agencies braced to the stricken area to

Stay here. Get in the back.

I'm all right. Let me help you.

I told you. All right. Hold me here.

Here. Take this quick. Get on the bus.

Yes, it is.

Okay,

have you ever seen anything like this?

[Music]

Help me, please.

Somebody help.

Somebody help me. I'm in here. Please

somebody.

Thank you.

What's going on?

Sir.

Sir,

are you okay?

[Music]

Well, they finally did it.

They destroyed the Greenland glacia.

I can't believe you found us.

We picked up a distress call from Halo's

transport chopper this morning.

Went to have a look. Lucky for you.

Thank you both of you.

I'm Lamour. This is Kenji. We're up here

making a documentary about the polar

bears.

Tom Archer is Sarah Fitch.

Tom Archer. Come on. Come on.

Come on.

Hey,

the ice storm cometh.

I read your book. Well, you're the one.

Hey, could you you sign this?

Cool. It's going straight on eBay. Let

me have a look at that.

I have something that can help.

What is this place? US military

listening post.

moth balled after the last cold war.

It smells very bad, but life's very

good.

Okay,

listen.

I really need to make contact with

London, let them know what's happening.

Sure, we can help you out. CIA left all

kinds of equipment when they shipped

out.

Got that satellite.

The spy satellite comes overhead every

couple of hours. Kenji can fix anything.

Figured out a way to bounce signals off

of it.

Okay, thanks.

The horizon sea level has reached

Hebdes, Viking, and Pharaoh Isles. It's

over 5 m high. Canada and Scandinavia

are suffering similar catastrophic

events.

At the current speed, it will reach the

north coast within 2 hours.

We've only just begun to move people to

higher ground.

How are we going to get all these people

away from the coast? We've got the

airport standing.

Hello,

Simon. Can you hear me?

Tom, thank God.

Simon,

I don't have time for details. I don't

know how long I've got this satellite.

The weather changes have started.

Hailstones the size of cricket balls.

There's a title surge coming in that we

can't stop.

Listen, that's only the start of it.

It's already too late for some

countries. The rise in sea levels will

have already devastated Norway, Sweden,

and Iceland. And the UK will be next.

Look, after the flooding, temperatures

are going to drop in the whole of the

northern hemisphere minus 40. It could

be worse.

At those temperatures, the water's going

to freeze and the UK will become an

Arctic wasteland.

Simon, nothing can survive.

What do we do?

Go south. Way south.

Simon, you've got to evacuate the entire

UK population. It's our only hope of

survival.

Get everyone out. Get them out now.

Call your father, Tom. Your family's

worried about you.

Good luck.

Sir, may I have a word?

You mean we have to evacuate 70 million

people?

Not possible,

Prime Minister. We We don't have a

choice. The weather is changing faster

than anyone anticipated. The flood

waters will quickly freeze, enuming the

country in a thick blanket of ice.

We can't predict an upward rise in

temperature

for for the foreseeable future.

Meaning

the last ice age

lasted 10,000 years. This one is just

beginning.

God, this is a wizard.

I've never even seen snow before.

It's going to get much cooler from now

on, Millie.

[Applause]

Grandad, is that it?

[Music]

Ladies and gentlemen,

friends,

we're facing a situation of the utmost

gravity.

Our only hope of survival as a nation

requires us to take the unprecedented

step of evacuating every man, woman, and

child from the country. The exodus south

must begin immediately.

Keep that line open till I've caught my

family. Kenji,

hurry up, Tom. She's moving out of

range. It will take a moment to connect.

Excuse me.

Keep this line moving.

Excuse me. Okay.

Stay there.

Stay there. Okay.

Get over.

Please. You have to help us.

Look, we're evacuating.

My mother's in here. Jacqueline Archer.

I've got to find her.

Please.

Okay. Please.

Okay. The new arrival stops in there.

Okay. Find a processing form. It'll tell

you which block she's in. Just go from

there. Go on.

Just numbers.

There's no names. Just numbers.

Someone. There's no names.

You stop that. Hostile here.

[Music]

That's my phone. That's mom's phone.

[Music]

Hello,

Jacine.

Oh my god,

Millie.

Dad,

sweetheart, you have no idea how good it

is to hear.

You're okay. Can you hear me?

I can't hear you. Dad,

they're getting out of the building.

Where are you?

Mom's in the immigration detention

center in Dland.

What?

Why on earth?

Something to do with her passport.

I'm here with Grandad now. I'm trying to

get her out.

Are you in London? You're in London.

Christ.

Millie, listen to me. Whatever you do,

don't go outside.

All right. You've got to stay where you

are. You've got to find mom and stay

inside.

Dad, I can't hear you.

Get safe. Keep warm

and just stay there. I will I will send

help. Okay.

Do not

go.

Dad, Dad, I can't.

Dad, I can't hear you.

I I will I will get you.

Millie.

Millie. It's gone. Guys, can we get it

back?

Too late.

Not now, man.

That was sad. He's okay.

I told you, didn't I?

Block one, Unity 7. Let's go and find

your mother.

My god.

Excuse me.

Come on, Granddad.

In the United Kingdom, the latest

reports on the ground suggest the

evacuation program is being severely

hindered by worsening conditions as

temperatures in the northern hemisphere

continue to freefall. The largest

migration in history is underway with

millions of people forced from their

homes to begin the journey south. With

large parts of the country already cut

off, fears are being raised and much of

the population has already been

stranded. The fate of these people is

unknown. But what is certain is that the

world is facing a disaster on an

unprecedented scale.

Damn it.

What is it? Did you warn them about

what's coming?

I tried and we lost the satellite. So,

it's 2 hours. Yeah. Before we get it

back. Give or take.

2 hours.

I've got to get to my family.

Where the hell's blocky?

Get off me.

Millie.

Raphael.

Millie, take my hand. Are you okay?

Are you?

We have to get my mom. Billy, where did

it go? Steven,

thank God.

We have to get my mom. She's in service.

No. No. They took her to the interview

room.

This way.

I'm very glad to see you, Raphael

Steven. It's good to see you, too.

You know where my mom is.

I think so. This way. Follow me.

They're long range tanks, but I can't

guarantee they'll get you to London if

that's what's on your mind.

I'm a qualified pilot.

You're qualified nuts if you try it.

He saved my life twice. I owe him.

Your choice, sister.

If we stay here, we'll die. Maybe,

maybe not.

What do you mean? Look, if I can get

this plane up, you're coming with us,

right?

This place has been my life longer than

I can remember. It's all I know. This is

my home. So, why would I leave? Anyway,

if I'm going out, I couldn't think of

any other place I'd rather be.

Just me,

Kenji,

and the bears.

You will come back for us. Right.

Right.

[Music]

Mom.

Mrs. Archa.

There's someone in here. They're not

moving. It's locked.

Quickly,

Mom.

Mom,

it's her.

Help him.

Is she all right? Jacqueline.

Jacqueline. Mom.

Mom,

she's alive.

Oh, thank God.

Here.

Millie.

Millie.

Find his keys.

What are you doing here? I was quiet

inside of you. You owe a person.

What is What is going on? Why is it so

cold?

Dad's prediction came true.

The glasses collapsed and it's just

going to keep getting colder.

Tom was out on the ice.

He was out on the ice.

It's okay. Tom was there.

We spoke to him. He's safe. But we have

to get out of here.

He's safe.

Yes.

Okay.

Come on. We must go.

Okay.

Let's go.

The Arctic conditions have forced the

closure of all airports and grounded all

aircraft as the evacuation process

reaches breaking point. With transport

links now compromised, there appears to

be no way out for those left trapped in

Britain. The government is promising

that no one will be left behind. But as

the weather worsens, the reality is that

it now appears to be a case of every man

for himself.

Look us up when this is all over. You

know where we are. Thank you, Lama.

Again,

thank you.

Take it easy, sweet stuff. Long way to

go.

[Music]

Are you ready for this?

Ready as I'll ever be. Sweet stuff.

Here we go.

[Music]

[Music]

I'm going to try that radio again.

Okay.

[Music]

It's Tom Archer. He's been patched

through on the emergency frequency.

Tom.

Simon.

Tom.

Simon, can you hear me?

Simon, I need your help. I've just left

Greenland on route for London.

No, no, no, Tom. Anywhere but here.

There's all the airports are closed.

There's There's nothing. London.

London's finished. Tom,

you got to go south. Like you said,

listen, Jacine is in the Dockland's

detention center.

My father and Millie have gone to find

her.

Tom, the PM has taken your advice. The

whole country is being evacuated.

If the weather continues the way it is,

the whole city's going to be beneath

snow and ice by the time you get here.

You You'll never be able to find a

thing.

Simon, could you just please send me the

the exact GPS coordinates of the

detention center?

Of course.

Good luck Tom

coach.

Mom,

thanks.

What was that?

Come on. We got to get out of here.

This place isn't safe.

There's a rear entrance. They brought us

through a transport bay. This way.

What's happening?

It must be the flood waters.

Look out.

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

You all right?

Yep.

Yeah, I'm fine.

There's nothing left for us to do here,

Prime Minister. We have to devolve power

to the local authorities and implement

martial law.

It's -30° outside and the temperature is

still dropping. If we don't leave, so

it'll be too cold for the helicopters to

fly.

Do you think people will forgive us?

I don't think anybody's worried about

blame right now, sir. Just survival.

Good luck, sir.

[Music]

You better get going. The helicopter

won't wait.

But Minister, aren't you coming?

I think 40 million people deserve

somebody from the government going the

distance with them. And I've got a

friend that I'm not letting down again.

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

Millie.

I'm okay, Mom. I'm okay.

Steven, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Millie,

let's get out of here. Oh, yeah.

Oh my god. Oh my god.

It's blocked.

Try that way.

Be careful. Watch yourself.

Be careful,

Billy.

Oh my god,

it's frozen.

There's no way out here. We have to find

a way to get higher up in the building.

Look, there's an exit on the other side

of the building leading to a stairway.

We have to tunnel our way out.

I think that's too dangerous.

This is the transport bay, isn't it?

Millie, what are you getting at?

The buses can be our tunnel. Brilliant.

Millie

Raphael, move out the way. Okay, watch

out.

Raphael, help me. Grab the back.

[Music]

The right from just stopped.

Togg fuel.

Okay, brace yourself. We're going down.

[Music]

This is it.

This nation has a long and illustrious

history. We take pride in who we are and

our ability to face any challenge head

on.

We have survived wars, revolutions,

invasions from hostile nations.

And my fellow countrymen,

I am certain that we will survive this.

Good luck

and may God bless you.

[Music]

Tom, I don't know if you can hear me,

but they just called time.

[Music]

The United Kingdom just ceased to exist.

[Music]

Tom.

Tom.

Tom.

Come on. Come on. Quick. Quick. Good. We

got to get out of here.

Come on.

Okay.

You did it.

Unbelievable.

This should be England. But

feels like the Arctic.

So cold.

GPS is broken.

How am I going to find my family without

it?

It's getting really hard to breathe.

I'm running out of oxygen.

Trapped like bugs in the ch.

You okay, granddad?

Grandad. Grandad.

Grandad. What is it? What have you got?

Not something that is going to get

better, I'm afraid.

Grandad,

I'm all right.

[Music]

Plenty of life for me, the old dog here.

Good.

These things,

they're not from the side of the road.

They hang over the motorways.

We've got 30 ft of snow under us.

Never going to find my family without a

GPS.

Come on.

You have to keep moving.

Are you okay?

Out of the frying pan into the freezer.

Steve,

how are you doing?

I'm fine, thank you.

You feeling okay?

Yes. Yes.

What about the others?

They're doing all right. Are you okay to

move?

Yes. Yes, of course I am.

Okay.

All right. Okay now.

All right.

Can't be too far to the next boss.

Okay.

Millie. No. Millie. Wait.

Stop.

Millie. Millie Jackie Steven help.

Millie

[Music]

Come on, lad. Push. Put your box into

it. Come on.

Come on. Push it.

Hello. Hello.

God,

what are you doing out here?

We need to get to East London.

There's a curfew in place, mate. You're

going to have to go back home.

Well, my my family's in Docklands. We

have to get to them.

London's off limits. It's too dangerous.

Armed gangs are scavenging for whatever

they can get.

I need to find my family.

No, you have to come with us, mate, for

your own safety.

Excuse me. Thanks. But no, thanks.

Hold it.

Now,

I said London's off limits.

You're kidding.

This is England.

It was

down. There's our temporary barracks.

Sergeant Doyle will escort you.

I think it is.

[Music]

You're all right. Help me get her.

It's all right, Mom. It's all right.

We've got you. We've got you. It's all

right. Oh,

[Music]

[Music]

heat.

[Music]

My god.

It's like this right across the country.

Millions of them just held up, waiting

to be evacuated.

Isn't there any way of getting them out?

We're just as marooned as they are.

So, this is where all the supplies are,

sitting around waiting for us to come.

You need to lower your weapons.

Oh, yeah. Who says so? What you running

the country now? Are you

tell

us what we need and we'll be on our way.

Let my men go first.

You're all right, boys. Calm down. Calm

down. Why don't we just relax until the

whole thing?

Look what I sold you boys, lads.

A GPS.

Exactly what we need.

Hand it over, darling.

No,

no.

And it

Tom, no. Don't Don't do it. Tom, I'll

kill you.

Get out.

Get out. Get out.

Right, boys. Off we go.

[Music]

See you later.

Are you okay?

Just breathe deeply.

[Music]

You all right?

Yeah. Yeah. Thanks.

Thanks.

Hey,

take this.

If you're going to find anyone in

Melbourne, well, you're going to need

it.

Thank you.

Watch out. That's it.

Just look out for that. It's slippery

over here.

You okay?

My heart.

Oh my god.

Let me have a look.

Might be sprained or something.

You know,

my dad used to talk about winter,

how it was in the old days before

climate change, white Christmas, that

kind of thing.

He gave me this toy once, uh, snow dome.

You know those things?

A little plastic sphere. You shake it

and snow goes flying around inside.

I used to try and imagine what it would

be like

being in there.

Well, guess now I know.

In my home

when the heat was worse.

Blunts dying.

No water.

So hot you couldn't even breathe.

I thought it could never get any worse.

This

This is worse.

Yeah.

Should we keep going?

Yes.

[Music]

There's a door.

I think I'm almost through.

Come on.

Try that one.

What was that?

The ice.

It's moving. The pressure on this

building must be increasing the whole

time.

Well, sooner or later it sh Don't think

about that. Just about finding a way out

of here.

It's not moving.

It's meter stick.

There's got to be a way out of here.

Come on.

Hit

me. Come on. Come on.

Come on.

Stop it. Stop it.

[Music]

I'll find a way out.

Are you serious?

[Music]

[Applause]

Your father said he'd send help.

He knows where we are.

Someone will come.

You know what I used to say to him when

he was very young and when he was low?

What?

You've got to sold your own son.

Really?

Did that make everything all right?

Not really.

We used to laugh about him when he was

older. You're rich.

Just like that.

Millie, come on. We must go.

Oh, I'm getting old.

You shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

You're not that old.

From your lips to God's ears.

[Music]

[Music]

Tom.

Tom. Tom. Please. We need to rest.

We can't. I can't stop until I burn.

We're going to die if we stay out here.

Tom,

stop.

Stop.

Stop. Help me. Help me, please.

We have to stop.

We're here. We'll find someone. Come on.

I'm okay. I'm okay.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Just wait.

Heat.

Heat.

[Music]

Sorry.

It's frozen in place.

The hatch.

The emergency hatch in the roof.

Can't reach it.

Yeah. Help me.

Be careful.

Can you lift me up? Thanks.

There's solid ice like 20 ft above the

shaft.

Mind your head, buddy.

I don't know.

What are we going to do?

Raphael, help me down.

Down? Be careful.

Just help me.

Here, take the torch.

Thank you.

Shine the light.

If the paint gas tank is still feeding

these pipes, maybe we can blow this lift

out of the shaft like a cork from a

bottle

and and climb a way out.

And then climb our way out.

It's crazy.

Yes.

Let's get started.

At least this stuff's still good for

something.

I think I was losing it out there

for a minute.

It's okay.

I'm sorry.

You want to be with them. I understand.

It's just it's impossible out there.

Suppose we have to soldier on.

What?

My father.

When everything's got really rough,

you have to soldier on.

You just have to believe that they're

going to be okay, Tom.

It's hard to imagine. I mean, there must

be millions who haven't made it. What

makes my family so special?

Well, if they are anything like you,

let me have a look at this.

Oh, no. No, really. It's fine. It's

Be gentle.

Oh god.

Sorry.

What's going to happen?

What's going to happen to the world?

To all of us?

Those

who make it far enough south,

there's a chance.

But if we don't learn from our mistakes,

there's no telling for how long.

[Music]

It's done.

Right now, get as far away from the

elevator shaft as you can. We'll be

right behind you.

Be careful. Okay, come on.

Okay.

Heat.

[Music]

Too much bloody moisture.

[Music]

It's never going to take

Rafa,

why don't you leave this one with me?

No, Mr. Archer.

It's all right.

I've had a good innings.

We both know the ice is going to flatten

this building.

Look, I'm relying upon you to get them

out.

[Music]

Can you do that for me, please?

Go on. Off you go.

Go on.

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

Where's Grandad?

[Music]

It wouldn't let me stay.

Oh god.

No. No. We have to stop it. Grandad.

Grandad. No. We have to stop him.

Thank God.

No, we can't

stop

We'll never make it over that.

There's a traffic tunnel. What?

If we can find the lime house tunnel,

maybe we can get under it.

Okay.

Good luck.

Keep

moving.

Come on.

Come on.

[Music]

All I need is the GPS that you got from

Soldier Boy. There's food, supplies,

valuables under the ice. I just need

something to find it.

Please, if I don't have it, I'll never

find my family.

Oh,

guess I'll just have to kill him and

take it any

Sit down. Sit down. Come on. Sit down.

Keep some pressure on it. All right,

minute.

Can't believe we got this far.

I'm sorry. Why? Why are you sorry? I

should have listened to you sooner. Why

have I listened to you?

Nobody ever listens to me.

them now.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Come on.

[Music]

Oh my god,

London's completely buried.

It's like a nightmare.

How will anyone find us in this?

We have to get off the building before

the ice swallows it. Come on.

This way. We can get to safety down

here. It's like a ski slope.

We'll never make it.

What do you think? It's too unstable.

We'll all be killed.

It's the only way down.

It's not going to work.

[Music]

Oh, Millie,

if we slide down on this, we've got a

chance.

Good idea.

I'm not sure about this, Millie. Yeah,

we don't have a plan up. Come on.

We have to go now. Come on.

Come on. Get on. Okay. Okay.

You know, he saved our lives.

I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him.

None of us would if it wasn't for what?

For granddad.

Well, that's who he was.

I'm glad you got to see it.

I suppose we just have to soldier on.

It means we're going the right way.

With my family reunited, we headed

south.

I knew the road would be long and hard.

But as we chased the sun, with each new

day, our survival became more and more

likely.

Mankind had been given a second chance.

This time, it had to be different.

We always knew that if we looked after

the planet, it would look after us.
