All language subtitles for The Salisbury Poisonings s01e01.eng

Prepare for
the Beast from the East.

We're drawing our air
all the way from Russia,

where it was minus 41 this morning.

The Beast from the East
hits the West.

In Salisbury, members
of the public were out clearing

the roads to our hospital to ensure
ambulances can get there safely.

There have been countless acts
of kindness throughout today.

Weather conditions like this really
bring out the best in people.

After the big freeze...the thaw.

The West Country became
one big family

over the last 26 hours or so...

The community spirit, we know,
in Salisbury, is fantastic.

Towns and cities are now clearing,
and things get back to normal.

Come!

Ah! Paul.

Hi. Dave. Morning. Have a seat.

Tracy, everything you're about
to hear is Cat One-protected, OK?

Understood.

The two people who took ill
at The Maltings yesterday

are Sergei and Yulia Skripal.

Father and daughter.
They're Russian. OK.

Sergei was a high-level MI6 agent

inside Russia's
GRU Intelligence Service.

He was moved to the UK
as part of a spy swap.

For some reason,
they put him in Salisbury. Right.

The initial toxicology
results suggest that this is not a drugs overdose.

So, what do we think it is?
We don't know yet.

Samples of their blood have been
sent for testing at Porton Down.

Mr Skripal's background
rang some alarm bells.

Not just with us, in Whitehall,

because of the Litvinenko case
in '06.

Do you think this is
an assassination attempt?

We wouldn't want
to speculate publicly.

Privately,
everything's on the table, yeah.

But that was polonium, right? Right.

But the Skripals have been checked
for radiation. There is none.

We are setting up a Gold Command
operation centre

here in the building

to run the public health response.

Since you're the Director
of Public Health for Wiltshire,

we're going to need you right
at the heart of this, along with us.

So...any questions?

Anyone else reporting ill?

Not so far.
DOOR BUZZER

We have to track back.
We have to...?

To track the Skripals' movement up
until the moment they collapsed.

Then anyone else connected
with the places they visited.

See if they become ill, too.

Just like in a case
of food poisoning.

You have to hand your phone in.
Right.

Have you ordered up
the CCTV already?

I've requested it, yes.

things we need to discuss first.

Dawn, you do have

Nothing to worry about.

We're just asking everyone to drop
into the hospital. Won't take long.

OK, ma'am. Thank you. Bye.

Who was that? It was, er...

Just work. Look, I'm going to,
um...nip to the shops. All right?

LOW CHATTER

Right, welcome, everybody.

For those of you who don't know me,
I am DCC Paul Mills.

We're moving quickly here,
so if you don't mind, I'll, er...

I'll let you introduce yourselves
as we go along.

I've just been informed that this is
now a criminal investigation,

to be run by
Counter Terrorism Command.

They believe that this is indeed
some sort of attack

on two Russian citizens.

So, our job, in this room,

is not to find out who did it,

but to keep the people
of Salisbury safe.

This will be multi-agency.
National, as well as local.

So we're going to have to work
together as a team.

Tracy, would you like to go first?
Oh.

Er...Tracy Daszkiewicz - Director
of Public Health for Wiltshire.

Don't worry,
there won't be a spelling test. Huh!

OK, so the victims show
no signs of radioactivity,

but we're still no closer to knowing
what the toxin may be.

I think we should assume for now
it's something they ate or drank.

Our goal here is to find the source
of the contamination.

Ground zero.

If we can do that,
then we stand a fighting chance

of locking this down quickly
and stopping any contagion.

But the longer it takes,
the worst it's going to get.

Um...there's a couple of things
I need.

Witness reports from
the first responders,

that would be really useful.
Absolutely. No problem.

And I'd like to have a look
at The Maltings, too.

Yeah, sure. Dave will take you.
I still haven't seen the CCTV.

Well, I'll raise it,
but it's going to be tricky. Why?

Security services
have become involved.

Which ones? All of them.

Look, Tracy, I'm about to go
into a teleconference with COBRA.

When I say I'll raise it,
I'll raise it, OK? I promise.

Better to get you checked out,

Well, your vitals are all fine.

Blood pressure, heart rate.
No temperature.

As for the pupils...

They can get like that sometimes
when you're run down.

Probably just a virus. Yeah. Yeah.

That's what I thought. Yeah.

How was the bench cleaned?

I think the, er...Fire Service
power-hosed it.

That drain feeds
into the water course.

So contaminated bodily fluids
would've washed right into it.

WHISPERS: Fuck off.

Where were they before that?

They visited the cemetery
in the morning,

where Sergei's wife and son
are buried. Yeah.

Drove into the city,
parked in Sainsbury's,

went for a pint in the Mill pub,
had lunch in Zizzi,

and then they walked through
The Maltings, until they sat, er...

..until they sat here.

So they walked all around town.
They could've spread it everywhere!

Barricades.
Police tape isn't enough.

We need to seal off the whole area
from the public.

It would cause a lot of disruption,
that's for sure.

And we still don't know
what this thing is.

However, that's good reason
not to take any chances.

I know it's a tough call,

but there's literally
people everywhere down there.

It's half the town centre.

MILLS SIGHS

Thanks.

RADIO: The hospital has said
there's a multi-agency approach.

they were called to the hospital

to decontaminate the area

..contacted directly.

Um, we're going to talk about dogs
right now, though.

Man's best friend, of course.

The police dogs...

Alastair, hiHi. Brace yourself.

We're going to need to use
significant council resources

for a massive job
in the city centre.

There could be a serious risk
to the public.

No, I've got no idea
how we're going to pay for it.

Yeah, I'm sure we need it.

at this point.

That's going straight

OFFICER WHISPERS

Story's breaking -
the Russian angle.

NEWS ANCHOR: Last night,
what happened here,

in the centre of Salisbury,

resulted in teams wearing
full protective suits

decontaminating the streets, where
several areas remain cordoned off.

Police, Fire Services

and public health authorities
have declared a major incident.

The first sign something was wrong
came yesterday afternoon

when a man and woman
appeared severely unwell

in The Maltings area
of central Salisbury.

The man and woman are being treated
at Salisbury District Hospital.

The BBC has been told that
he is Sergei Skirpal. Russian.

66 years old.

In 2006...

Ross? ..he was convicted
of high treason in Russia.

Ross? The allegation was
that he was a British spy.

In 2010, he was pardoned
by the Russian authorities

and came to this country...
Bloody hell!

..in return for the release
of ten spies from the US.

Police arrived at Mr Skirpal's house
in Salisbury...

Got his name wrong.

Wiltshire Police said
they were investigating

whether a crime had been committed.

HUBBUB

Yeah?

Hey. Hi. You all right?
Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

Um...we need to find everyone

who was near to the Skripals
on the CCTV footage.

The boy with the bread, onlookers.

Find out if they're OK.
Public appeal?

We haven't got time for that.
We need to make it more targeted.

Their mobiles, that's how we do it.
Yeah, OK.

No, not OK. It's not
straightforward, Tracy, not at all.

Well, then,
I'll think of something else.

Detective Sergeant Rob Andrews.

Professor Tim Atkins - Porton Down.

Oh, how do you do? After you.

..capable of linking to the
internet, please. Phones, laptops,

iPads, smartwatches, Fitbits,

in the lockers.

Right. Thanks.

Ah, Professor Atkins? Yeah.

DCC... Very nice to meet you.

Novichok? It's a Russian word.
It means newcomer.

It was developed by the USSR
during the Cold War,

and it's one of the deadliest
synthetic substances on Earth.

It's so toxic that a spoonful,

with the right delivery mechanism,

could kill thousands.

Salisbury Hospital has declared
a major incident, just in case.

But if it's so toxic, how come
the Skripals are still alive?

The paramedics assumed that
they'd overdosed on fentanyl,

so them gave them
a shot of naloxone,

which also happens to help combat
nerve agent toxicity.

Plus, it was cold,

further inhibiting the speed with
which the substance took effect.

So, in this case,
they just about clung to life.

For now.
What does novichok do to you?

It stops the brain
from communicating

with the rest of the body.

A victim loses control
of every organ.

They all go into overdrive
simultaneously. Very few survive.

But for those that do,
what are the long-term effects?

We don't know.

In terms of here, in the West,

the only two people that we know of

that haven't died almost
instantly from nerve agent toxicity

are Sergei and Yulia Skripal.

LOW CHATTER

He's in here? Just there.

Detective Sergeant Bailey.
And, er...Mrs Bailey?

My name's Dr Haslam. I just want
to shine a light in your eyes.

OK. Thank you. I'll be right back.

OK.

So, now we know what it is,
can we start testing for it?

The process is difficult.

Let's say we have a deposit
of nerve agent here, on this table.

So we want to swab for it.

So we might take one here and get
lucky, as it were, and find it.

But if we swab here,
just a few inches away...

..it'll come up clean.
But it's still there.

And over time, I mean,
does it, um...? Degrade? No.

If left untouched, it will remain
lethal for a very long time.

How long?

About 50 years.

SHOCKED CHATTER

So, if it's on a piece of clothing,
or...?

Yes, you could go for days or weeks
without touching the precise spot,

but as soon as you do...

Well, you've seen the effects.

this is about as bad as it gets.

are Detective Inspector Lata Mishra

and Detective Sergeant Rob Andrews.

Ross, you mentioned when you called
last night that you'd seen

Sergei Skripal over the weekend?

That's right, yeah.

We picked up Yulia from the airport
on Saturday.

She'd flown in from Moscow.

Sergei was worried about the snow,
so I took them in the 4x4.

How are they? Can we,
er...can we visit them?

Er...no. I'm...I'm sorry,
they're very unwell.

How was he recently?

Did he seem different to you?

Was he behaving differently?

Ross?

It's...it's just...

Some of the things I've got to say
might sound unbelievable to you.

I mean, they're unbelievable to me.

Good afternoon. OK. Thank you.

Tracy Daszkiewicz - Director
of Public Health for Wiltshire.

I'm looking for a young lad.
He was in The Maltings on Sunday.

First name Henry.

He's just been discharged.
Winter vomiting bug.

And you're sure that what it is?
Yeah. Yeah. Definitely.

OK. Thanks.

But that police officer's
just been admitted to ICU.

Sorry, did you say police officer?
Yeah.

What is it? What's wrong with him?

He's been poisoned.

Poisoned?

This is highly sensitive
information.

The same toxin was used to attack
the Russian couple on Sunday.

It's a nerve agent.

Mrs Bailey, listen to me.

I know what this substance is now,

I know what it's doing to his body,
and I have a plan to help him.

OK.

OK, so you say Mr Skripal
changed his phone?

That's right, yeah.
He had a new phone on Saturday.

Is that so unusual?

It's unusual to go from
a top-of-the-range smartphone

to an old brick, though, isn't it?

And the thing is...

..I think we were followed
from the airport.

You think? Are you sure?

It was a black BMW, two people,
a man and a woman.

Yeah, we were followed, all right.

And have you any idea who might
have wanted to follow Mr Skripal?

I do, yeah.

Something Sergei said
when he was round here last week,

sat exactly where you are, in fact.

And can you remember
exactly what that was?

He said,

"Putin's gonna get me."

MAN: Tracey Daszkiewicz, Director
of Public Health for Wiltshire.

SHE EXHALES

Good afternoon, everyone.
AUDIENCE: Good afternoon.

I'm afraid no-one is much going to
like what I have to say here today.

The testing process has begun,

but it's going to take
at least two days

before we have any reliable results.

We don't know
the source of contamination,

or have an established
chain of events

about how Detective Sergeant
Nick Bailey became contaminated.

Multiple sites are in play.

Zizzi's restaurant, the Mill pub,

various vehicles,
Salisbury cemetery,

and, of course,
the Skripal house itself.

There will be others that we
haven't yet managed to identify.

All we do know

is that this is one of the
most toxic substances on Earth,

that has been specifically designed
to be invisible and undetectable...

..and that, for the 46,500 people
in Salisbury,

we are their only line of defence.

Thank you.

SHE EXHALES

FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

Oh, shit, sorry. I heard the car.

How was the nightclub?

Oh, very funny.

I was watching the news.

You must have had
an interesting day.

Careful, it's hot.

How are you bearing up?

I don't think I can do this, Ted.

Oh, not the old impostor syndrome.

Oh, God, I hate being married
to a psychologist.

I'm serious.

Oh, come on.

No, I mean it.

This is just too big.

I genuinely don't think
I've got the experience.

This is really massive.

What's going on?

What's really going on?

I hardly even know myself.

And what I do know,
I can't tell you. Right.

But there are lives at stake.

Maybe a lot of lives.

If I make one wrong decision,
just one...

Listen, whatever this is...

..I'm glad you're in charge.

Well, I'm not.

PHONE BUZZES

I love you.

Is Daddy OK?

Yes, my love.

He says hello.

SHE SOBS QUIETLY
