PROTESTORS: stand down USA .

Stand down USA .

[distant protests]

[indistinct talking/music]

[music]

ARCHIVE VOICE: we're against the
whole nation, the coalition

of evil who are killing
Muslims, who are attaching

Muslims ideologically and
physically that

is what we're against.

[music]

[Arabic chanting]

WALEED: I want you to
tell me what you can hear.

I want you to tell me if you
can't hear the cries of our

brothers and sisters as they
find the bodies of their

families in the
ruins of their homes!

WALEED: And I want you to tell
me if you can't hear the cries

of the orphans of Gaza as the
missiles of the Jews

rain down on them.

WALEED: British
troops burn in hell.

PROTESTING MOB: British
troops burn in hell.

WALEED: British
troops burn in hell.

PROTWALEED: Britishtish
troops burn in hell.

PROTESTING MOB: British
troops burn in hell.

WHITE SUPREMACIST: Dirty
dishes, bread roll slags!

You filthy Paki bastards,

just fuck off home, you dirt.

WALEED: British

PROTESTING MOB: British
troops burn in hell.

WALEED: Burn,
burn, burn in hell.

WALEED: Is Nas
coming in or what?

MAJID: Hmmm after the doctor,
yeah.

Have you seen what they've
done to Perry Road?

WALEED: Where the hell is that?

MAJID: Off Mile End innit; the
turning before the cinema.

WALEED: Oh yeah .

MAJID: They've made
it one way bruv.

I don't see the point of it.

WALEED: No, that's stupid man.

EDWARD: I'm worried they're
gonna pull you out.

RALPH: I'm sure they will.

Are you close?

EDWARD: I think so.

I just don't have
enough evidence yet.

EDWARD: Has Jalil said anything?

MOHAMMED: Nah.
EDWARD: Nasir?

MOHAMMED: No.
EDWARD: Majid?

MOHAMMED: Uhuh.

EDWARD: Did you hear
the name Seif Omar?

MOHAMMED: Seif who?
EDWARD: Omar.

MOHAMMED: Nah.

EDWARD: Has he asked
you to do anything?

MOHAMMED: No one's
told me anything.

WALEED: Has someone
been smoking in there?

MOHAMMED: You can't
smell that, can you?

MAJID: I don't smell anything.

CONTROLLER: Jalil was in.

WALEED: I thought he'd given up.

CONTROLLER: Yeah
he's started again.

WALEED: Right man, right see you
then, see you Jamal,

right, in a bit.

MAJID: So what's happening?

Won the Monday, the brotherss
tgonna put everyone up for then

night, you know, so we
can get an early start.

Asif is doing the cooking .

MAJID: Asif? He never
volunteered!

WALEED: Yeah, soon as the
cooking was mentioned the room

went dead, no one was
putting their hand up.

MAJID: Yeah yeah.

WALEED: Usual thing innit .

MAJID: You didn't
volunteer then?

WALEED: Yeah well, I'm not
even here, I'm off, I'm gone.

I'm going to a wedding in Yemen
on the Thursday before so why

was I going to put my hand up .

[fast forwarding/rewinding

[fast forwarding/rewinding
previous audio]

[Slowing down audio - focusing
on 'Yemen']

EDWARD: I want to know where
Waleed is going in Yemen.

ABDUL: We need to
renegotiate my price.

EDWARD: Your price is dependent
on the quality of

the information .

ABDUL: How do you think my
community would feel if they

were to learn that I was helping
the Americans

by giving you information?

So this is why you have
to pay me more money.

EDWARD: I pay you for
information, Mister Akmal.

ABDUL: He is going to Zabid.

EDWARD: To do what?
ABDUL: To a wedding.

A cousin's wedding.

EDWARD: Which cousin?
ABDUL: Usman Tariq.

EDWARD: He's telling people
he's going to a wedding.

KHALIL: Whose wedding?

EDWARD: Usman Tariq? A cousin
living in Zabid.

KHALIL: No.

EDWARD: It's what
he's telling people.

KHALIL: Usman would not
invite Waleed to his wedding.

EDWARD: Are you sure?

KHALIL: Absolutely. This is a
feud of many years.

He would kill Waleed
rather than invite him.

Is something happening?

EDWARD: I need your judgement.

I think I might be seeing
something that isn't there?

What do you think?

KHALIL: I wouldn't be talking
to you if

I didn't have a grave anxiety.

I have not met another man who
has developed such single-minded

hatred for those who are not
of the same belief as himself.

EDWARD: But do you think he will
cross that line, take action?

KHALIL: Yeah, I believe this.

And, God willing,
you will stop him.

KATY: Daddy!

EDWARD: Do you want
some ice cream?

KATY: Mummy hasn't given
me an ice cream for ages.

EDWARD: Right let's get some.

KATY: When are you coming home?

[television on in background]

[faint sound of clock ticking]

THOMAS: So, he's not
going to a wedding?

EDWARD: He is saying
he is but he's not. No.

THOMAS: And you believe he
is going to visit Seif Omar?

EDWARD: The wedding's in Zabid.

Intelligence has
Seif Omar, in Zabid.

It's just too much
of a coincidence.

THOMAS: What are
you asking of them?

EDWARD: For him to
be tracked, in Yemen.

THOMAS: There's too much going
on in other places right now and

resources for an
enterprise like that.

EDWARD: I am certain
he is making his move.

THOMAS: They won't
buy it, Edward.

LUCY: It's how it
goes sometimes.

EDWARD: Yeah, I know.

LUCY: You should come for
a drink with us later.

EDWARD: Yeah.

SECRETARY: I'll tell
her you're here.

EDWARD: Thank you.

SECRETARY : Edward for you ...
right.

SECRETARY: She's
ready to see you now.

EDWARD: Thank you.
JUDITH: Edward, sit down.

EDWARD: Thank you.

JUDITH: I understand your
frustration and prioritising is

a ghastly word - it's absolutely
the worst part of our work - but

it has to be done.

EDWARD: I just feel like the
resources would have been made

available to me here and at
MI6 if I was being believed.

JUDITH: It's my understanding
that the issue is the weakness

of the evidence
you are presenting.

EDWARD: Except this has
happened to me before.

JUDITH: What has?

EDWARD: My judgement
being questioned.

JUDITH: On what occasion?

EDWARD: It's just something
I've been aware of.

EDWARD: And I feel
like I'm being ...

JUDITH: Overlooked.

EDWARD: Yes.

JUDITH: Why do you feel that?

EDWARD: Well I've seen others -
who came in at the same time as

me - I've seen them get
promotion ahead of me.

JUDITH: All of them?

EDWARD: Well, enough of them.

And I feel like I'm
being, I feel like

I'm trailing behind a little.
At least it feels like it.

JUDITH: I see. Why do you think
that might be?

EDWARD: I don't know.

JUDITH: But you believe that
there is a reason beyond your

ability and professionalism?

EDWARD: Yes.

JUDITH: I'm not aware of
anything untoward - any reality

- that is causing
you to feel that.

What's holding back your
case, in this instance,

is the lack of
evidence and only that. Okay?

EDWARD: Okay.
EDWARD: Thank you.

EDWARD: See you later.

OWNER: God bless mate,
see you soon, yeah.

EDWARD: Thanks bye.

EDWARD: I found an
email last night,

sent on November 11th 2011.

Sent to him from an address
known to be used by Seif Omar,

it reads: The bed linen will
be ready

for delivery in five weeks.

Linen is, I believe,
their code word for ricin.

GARETH: Ricin?
EDWARD: Yes.

ANJALI: Do you have
intelligence on that?

EDWARD: He's been on our
radar for a few years now,

there's been nothing
beyond the usual until

I picked up an email
four weeks ago.

And it details a method of
making ricin by freeze drying

and reusing domestic
aerosol cans

with nitrous oxide propellant.

ANJALI: You misunderstand me;
Intelligence that this is code.

EDWARD: Well erm, I am working
off circumstantial evidence

and to some extent,
character profile.

GARETH: It's great for umbrella
tips on escalators and putting

on someone's wilted spinach but
ricin plots usually end

in a puff of nothing.

EDWARD: Five hundred micrograms
is enough to kill you - and you

can put that on a pinhead - so
I would say it's a

pretty good weapon of terror.

ANJALI: Is there any
intelligence of a plot?

EDWARD: He's telling people that
he is travelling to Yemen this

coming Thursday for a
cousin's wedding in Zabid.

I know this to be a lie -
he is travelling to Zabid,

but not for a wedding.

I also know that Seif Omar
is at this moment, in Zabid.

ANJALI: But, but it's not
intelligence of

an actual plot underway, is it?

GARETH: It's supposition,
not intelligence.

EDWARD: I know Waleed
Ahmed inside out.

I have analysed his speeches,
I know how he thinks,

he's trained as a pharmacist.

I know Seif Omar's intentions
and I can see no other reason

why these two would be meeting.

MARCUS: What is it exactly
that you're asking of us?

EDWARD: Well he's travelling
to Yemen on Thursday,

so we do have the option of
arresting him at the airport,

however, as we do not have
enough intelligence to detain

him or charge him, we are asking
that you keep a twenty-four hour

watch on him once
he lands in Yemen.

MARCUS: So your instinct is
telling you that

a plot is now underway?

EDWARD: I believe there is a
compelling case that

a plot is now under way, yes.

MARCUS: Okay. Let's do it.

EDWARD: Thank you.

MARCUS : Gareth, will you
speak to your people in Yemen?

GARETH : Yeah.

THOMAS: Well done.
EDWARD: Thanks.

THOMAS: We'll see what he gets
up to once he's out there.

M15 PERSONNEL: and then this kid
takes the ticket straight out of

my hand, and when I
try to grab it back,

he starts shouting "this
man's trying to kidnap me,

so everyone stops.

I panic and I let
him go and he's gone...

LUCY: Hi.
EDWARD: Hi.

[phone ringing]

EDWARD: Thomas?

THOMAS: They've lost him.

He was in Zabid, they trailed
him to Al Hudaydah and

then they lost him.

EDWARD: Al Hudaydah?

THOMAS: It's on the Red Sea.

Across from Eritea. A dead end.

EDWARD: What was he doing there?

THOMAS: Staying with a cousin
who is saying that Waleed left

in the morning to visit someone
else - but he didn't know who.

EDWARD: Did they lose him
- or did he lose them?

THOMAS: No idea - they're not
going to tell us that they fell

asleep watching the house.

And the cousin isn't going to
tell the PSO where he was going

even if he was just
going shopping.

Anyway, the sum of it is that
he's gone and

we don't know where.

EDWARD: Hold on, hold on.

My guess is that he has taken a
boat across the Red Sea and then

travelled by land to Cairo.

There's a connection between
castor oil production,

ricin and a man
called Ismail Yassin.

THOMAS: Who?

EDWARD: Ismail Yassin.
He lives in Cairo.

There's a connection
between Yassin,

Seif Omar and Seif
Omar and Waleed.

Find Yassin and I bet
we will find Waleed.

EDWARD: Morning.

JUDITH: Good morning Edward.
I hear you're going to Cairo.

EDWARD: Yeah. They've picked him
up out there.

Arrested with three others on
suspicion of manufacturing ricin

at a farm on the outskirts.

JUDITH: Well done.
EDWARD: Thank you.

JUDITH: It's a good
opportunity for you.

AUTOMATED VOICE:
Please mind the door.

Doors closing.

TONY: Tony Coveney.

EDWARD: Edward Ekubru,
nice to meet you.

TONY: I'm sorry I wasn't
able to come and greet you.

EDWARD: That's alright.

TONY: We've got rather a lot on.

A coffee or are you
ready to see him now?

EDWARD: Let's see him now.

TONY: I'll brief you inside.

EDWARD: Alright.

TONY: Shokran. (Thankyou)

TONY: [speaking Arabic]

TONY: Shokran (Thankyou)

TONY: OK, this is the situation:

we have
two farmers in custody who have

confessed to giving castor
bean waste to a third man,

Ismail Yassin, he's also in
custody and he's confessed

handing the stuff
to your guy Waleed.

But we have a problem.

All we have are confessions.

They're coming from their
interrogations by

the State Security Service.

EDWARD: Right?

TONY: Since those
interrogations,

all three have retracted
their statements.

It doesn't mean to say the
confessions weren't true,

they're just not
reliable is the truth.

EDWARD: But the
ricin's been found?

TONY: No.

EDWARD: I mean the
evidence of it.

TONY: They've been to the farm
where it's supposed

to have been produced.

There's nothing.

EDWARD: There's very good
intelligence on this, you know.

TONY: I'm just relaying the
situation as we have it ...

EDWARD: I mean it also lines up
with what those three

men have admitted to.

TONY: Yes, that kind of
corroboration is easily obtained

by leading questions.

All we have are a couple of
frightened farmers and a Cairo

shopkeeper who will say anything
to stop having

their nails pulled - so to
speak.

[phone ringing]

TONY: Excuse me.

TONY: Sorry.

TONY: How long have you
been in the Service?

EDWARD: Fourteen years.
TONY: Really? Before 9/11?

EDWARD: Yeah.
TONY: From university?

EDWARD: Yeah.
TONY: Which one?

EDWARD: Warwick. How about you?

TONY: I joined after Oxford.

Police officer: [Speaking
Arabic]

TONY: Shokran. (Thank you)

TONY: Okay, let's go. .

TONY: Waleed Ahmed?

WALEED:
Are you from the Embassy?

TONY: Yes.

WALEED: Why has it taken
you this long to see me?

TONY:
[speaking Arabic]

WALEED: All last night
and all day today,

I've been telling
them, 'I'm British!

I want to speak to my Embassy!'

I am British!

TONY: Well, we're here now.

WALEED: This is
wrong. This is degrading.

I am being kept here like a rat.

WALEED: A British citizen
treated like a rat.

TONY: My name's Tom ...

WALEED: Why?

TONY: My name is Tom
and this is Daniel.

WALEED: So you got
second names then?

TONY: We do.

WALEED: [speaking Arabic]

WALEED: So you can't
be from the Embassy,

because you don't speak Arabic.

TONY: We work in the British
Nationals Department.

WALEED: Right, so you better
start dealing with my case then.

TONY: And your case is?

WALEED: My case is simple.

Right, I am with my
friends in their home.

They invite me for dinner.

Right, we are eating and talking
and then all

these security guys bust in.

They got guns, batons, they
force us into a van

and bring us here.

That's illegal detention.

When we get here, we're put into
cells and just left there for

the night, twenty people
shitting in a bucket, no water,

nothing, then, I'm taken out of
my cell and I am questioned but

I don't know what they
are going on about,

I don't have any answers for
them because

I don't understand the
questions.

So what have I done?

I want to know because
I haven't done anything.

I was just sitting and
chatting with my mates.

WALEED: What have I done?

TONY: You are being detained
becbeing a co-conspirator.of

WALEED: Of what?

TONY: On suspicion of conspiring
to commit acts of terror

in the United Kingdom.

WALEED: You got to be joking me?

WALEED: You have to be.

WALEED: So the men who did
this to me last night yeah?

WALEED: They were acting
for you then were they?

WALEED: What are you
going to do about it?

TONY: How are you
saying that happened?

WALEED: You live here and you
don't know they torture people?

TONY: Are you making
an allegation?

WALEED: What so you saying
you don't believe me?

TONY: I didn't say that.

WALEED: Right, I was taken
to a room where there was an

interrogator from the
State Security Service.

I couldn't answer his questions,
that's what happened to me.

I am a British citizen and it
is your job to look after my

constitutional rights.

EDWARD: You will have your
rights respected Mr Ahmed,

but you will also have
to answer our questions.

How do you know Ismail Yassin?

WALEED: Now you need to start
respecting my rights now .

I spell it out for you: Guidance
to Intelligence Officers on the

Detention and Interviewing of
Detainees Overseas:

You are instructed to
investigate allegations

of torture against UK citizens.

Am I right?

WALEED: You got to bring
complaints from those citizens

to the attention of the country
in which a

detainee is tortured ...

EDWARD: Why do you know all this
when you claim you only came

here to visit friends?

WALEED: What you don't think we
get harassed by people like you

whenever we want to go anywhere?

This is just what I tell my
brothers: know your rights.

Memorise that shit.

Rule number three: says you
gotta withdraw from the

interview if you know that
torture or inhuman or degrading

treatment has been conducted.

WALEED: If you refuse to carry
out your statutory duty towards

me, I'll complain to my Member
of Parliament, to my lawyer,

to the media, to Amnesty, to
Liberty and to Human Rights

Watch, I will set you alight .

TONY: Mister Ahmed,
do not threaten us.

EDWARD: You are in a
very serious situation.

WALEED: No I'm not, you are.

The world has changed
for people like you now.

I am an innocent man and
people are watching you.

TONY: We will withdraw from
this interview until we have

investigated your allegations
exactly, according to the rules.

You may be surprised to learn
that we do work

by the rules here.

WALEED: Yeah good.

TONY: But don't
think, for one moment,

this means that you will
be able to control things.

You are in detention here upon
our instruction and you will

remain so until we have
concluded our business with you.

Is that clear?

TONY:
[speaking Arabic]

EDWARD: This is ridiculous. How
can we not interview him?

TONY: We play it by the
rules, refer it to London.

EDWARD: We don't have
the time for that.

TONY: We don't have a choice.

EDWARD: If my
intelligence is right,

we could have ricin on the
waTONY: Don't you get it! ?.

There is torture all over this.
It's lethal.

That's why it has
to go to London.

EDWARD: I want to see the
officer in charge

of the investigation.

TONY: My colleague
from the Embassy,

this is Commandant El Halwani.

EDWARD: Thanks for your time.
MOAZ: I only have two moments.

TONY: We appreciate that.

MOAZ: What do you want to know?

TONYhe claims that he wasrom
spetortured last night.med,

Is that true?

MOAZ: No, no it is not.

TONY: He showed us
marks on his body.

MOAZ: Yes, he was injured -
but it was resisting arrest.

TONY: I see.

MOAZ: One of my men
was careless with him.

But I can assure you, that he
has the same injuries as he had

when he came in.

I saw the injuries myself.

EDWARD: So are you still
investigating

the case against
him?

MOAZ: Yes, yes of course.

EDWARMOAZ: No, there is no any
evievidence of it at all.ion?

EDWARD: Are you still looking?

MOAZ: Listen, I already
told this to your Embassy.

These men make castor oil.

They grow the plants, they
make the oil, they sell it.

This is all they do.

EDWARD: We have intelligence
sources that suggest ...

MOAZ: If all we see is castor
oil, what do you want me to do?

Manufacture the ricin myself?

TONY: No, of course not.

EDWARD: But the farmers
have admitted it.

MOAZ: Yes, they have admitted it
But they have denied it to me.

MOAZ: I keep Mister Ahmed here
only because

your Embassy asks me to.

Personally I would let him go.

MOAZ: [speaking Arabic]

MOAZ: Are we ok?
TONY: Yes. Thank you.

MOAZ: You're welcome.

TONY: Believe me, nothing's
changed in this country.

A man's been tortured, we
must report it to London.

TONY: Erm, I'm, I'm afraid
I can't do dinner tonight.

I would love to but er...

EDWARD: That's okay. Who was
Waleed's interrogator?

TONY: I don't have his name.

EDWATONY: We should speakr me
becauseto London first. to him?

EDWARD: I just want
to set up a meeting.

TONY: It's easier if we do
everything through the Embassy.

EDWARD: Yeah but I don't want
to get mired in bureaucracy.

TONY: Things have
to be done properly.

EDWARD: I wouldn't think
of doing them improperly .

TONY: Of course not, I
wasn't implying that.

I'll speak to London
as soon as I get back,

they'll take it straight
to the Home Office.

TONY: I, I am sorry about
dinner and the hotel,

the restaurant's not bad though.

EDWARD: Good.

TONY: Shokran (Thank you)

EDWARD: My concern is that this

won't be given the
attention it needs.

THOMAS: Judith will be talking
to Peter this evening

but that's as far as we can
take it tonight.

EDWARD: Yeah but ...

THOMAS: You will have to discuss
it with the

Home Office and then

they will have to take it
on to the Home Secretary.

EDWARD: But if things
don't move quickly then ...

THOMAS: Edward, if no ricin has
been found and these

confessions are now dubious
then you will just have

to sit tight and wait.

EDWARD: Thank you.

LUCY: Hello?

EDWARD: Lucy, it's
Edward, I need a favour?

Can you find me the name and
number of the man from the State

Security Service who
interrogated Waleed?

LUCY: Don't you think this
should go through Thomas?

EDWARD: I need you to find out
in such a way that the Embassy

here won't know?

LUCY: This should
go through Thomas.

EDWARD: Right now they're
putting a block on everything

and I need to speak to
him as soon as possible.

LUCY: Edward, do you realise
what you are asking me to do?

EDWARD: Lucy, please.

[dial tone]

TONY: Yeah?

EDWARD: It's Edward. Are we
getting anywhere?

TONY: We should have
some news by end of play.

EDWARD: What does that mean?

TONY: It's going to take a
while to go up the chain.

Look Edward, I have
to take this call, ok?

EDWARD: Was Waleed
Ahmed tortured?

HAZEM: No he was not.

EDWARD: I have seen him and he
appears to have been tortured.

HAZEM: If he is claiming
that then he is lying.

EDWARD: How else would
he have got his injuries?

HAZEM: Resisting arrest.

Beaten by a stick.

Taken by the throat - but you
will never get

to the truth of it.

The police will deny everything.

So, you can interrogate
him yourselves.

Even by your own rules.

EDWARD: How about that Yassin
and the farmers' claim that they

were tortured - is that true?

HAZEM: Yes.
EDWARD: They were tortured?

HAZEM: Yes.
EDWARD: By you ?

HAZEM: Yes.
EDWARD: Personally?

HAZEM: Yes. Absolutely.

EDWARD: Then that causes me
a major problem, Colonel.

HAZEM: But you have the truth.

EDWARD: So you are certain that
they were manufacturing

ricin from castor beans?

HAZEM: Yes. Absolutely.

EDWARD: And manufacturing
it for Waleed Ahmed?

HAZEM: Absolutely.
One hundred per cent.

There is no question.

EDWARD: But no evidence of
itHAZEM: Who says this?m.

EDWARD: The
investigating officer.

HAZEM: The Police would not even
have bothered to search for it.

They are only concerned
with what happens here.

HAZEM: This is Asmiel Yassin.

EDWARD: Does he
speak any English?

HAZEM: No.

EDWARD: Did you ask him what
WaleHAZEM: He doesn't know.cin?

But we can deduce that the ricin
has left my country

and gone to your country.

That it was packaged off
by your man two days ago.

EDWARD: Two days ago?

EDWARD: What makes
you think that?

HAZEM: That is when he
finished his business here.

We can presume it.

EDWARD: Did you tell
my Embassy that?

HAZEM: Yes.

HAZEM: (Arabic)

HAZEM: These
are your farmers.

HAZEM: (Arabic)

HAZEM: It is
unfortunate for them.

They had no idea
what they were doing.

EDWARD: My problem is I can't
talk to Waleed until

I get clearance from our
Minister in London.

HAZEM: That is a madness.

EDWARD: Yes. In this situation,
yes.

HAZEM: The ricin is somewhere
in your country right

now as we speak.

You must find it
in anyway you can.

And I can help you.

EDWARD: I can't allow that.

HAZEM: You have a problem that
your Embassy

does not believe you.

I do not think that you can
see the wood for the trees.

No interview with your man will
ever reveal what

he is planning for you.

Without us there is only chaos.

Civilisation is this thin ...

HAZEM: The smallest veneer.

And you and me, we
are this veneer,

just about holding
everything together.

Just about!

You can refuse my offer and
leave and the next thing you

will know, I will be telling you
where that ricin is in the UK.

And that's it.

You don't even have
to say 'yes' to me.

Just leave now.

EDWARD: I can't do that.

HAZEM: Call me.
Call me any time.

And you will find I
always keep to my word.

Do we follow instructions -
or do we do what is right?

This will always be
the question for us.

HAZEM: Think about it ...

EDWARD: Why wasn't I told of the
report that the ricin had been

sent to the UK two days ago?

TONY: The information
that we received ...

EDWARD: In your reports, have
you expressed

doubt about my case?

TONY: My reports reflect
the situation as I see it.

EDWARD: Take me seriously when I
tell you that my intelligence on

Waleed Ahmed is good!

TONY: I am prepared to believe
anything but I need evidence.

And everything that I've
seen so far is tenuous.

EDWARD: Which is why I
need to interview him!

TONY: And I am pushing for that.

EDWARD: Not hard enough. Waleed
is lying to us.

He is lying because that ricin
is already on its way to its

target and he is using our
regulations to buy him the time

he needs to distribute it.

TONY: We've had
this conversation.

Now your request is being dealt
with at the highest level.

In the meantime, we wait.

[dial tone]

THOMAS: Hello.

EDWARD: Thomas, it's Edward.

The Embassy have information
that the ricin left

Egypt two days ago.

THOMAS: Yes, I have
that report on my desk.

EDWARD: Why have I
only just found out?

THOMAS: I understand that
it is less than conclusive.

EDWARD: Well that's why I need
to speak to Waleed today,

not tomorrow.

THOMAS: I hear what you're
the Embassy there is right.t

No evidence was found on the
farm which makes it extremely

difficult for us to proceed,
you're just

going to have to wait.

Goodbye.

[dog barking]

TONY : Is this it?

EDWARD: Yeah.

EDWARD: In a ditch on the farm
fthat you told mey?

had alrady been searched.

I need them analysed right away.

TONY: The more reliable option
would be for us

to fly them to the UK.

EDWARD: Will they go tonight?
TONY: I'll do it right away.

TONY: Leave it with me.

WALEED: Where's your mate?
EDWARD: He's not here. Sit down.

EDWARD: Leave us, please.

WALEED: [speaking Arabic]

WALEED: You help me, I help you.

EDWARD: Good.

EDWARD: What is your
connection to Ismail Yassin?

WALEED: Have you got
permission to interview me?

EDWARD: Yes I do.

WALEED: I want that confirmed.

EDWARD: I just confirmed it.

I want to know your
connection to Ismail Yassin.

WALEED: I don't know him.

EDWARD: Yes you do.

You were arrested in
his best friends' house.

WALEED: So? Does that mean ...

EDWARD: You came
here to meet him.

WALEED: I don't know him.
EDWARD: I know you did.

WALEED: I told you,
I don't know him!

EDWARD: He manufactured ricin
for you for the purpose of

committing acts of
terror in the UK.

WALEED: Manufactured what? !

EDWARD: Ricin. For you. For the
purpose of ...

WALEED: Whoa, whoa,
whoa, what you saying? Ricin?

What the fucks that?

How the fuck would I
know how to do that?

Who is telling you this?

EDWARD: Two farmers working for
Yassin have already admitted it.

WALEED: I have never
heard of Ismail Yassin.

EDWARD: Yassin himself
has admitted it!

WALEED: This is mad.
This is all mad.

EDWARD: Do you know Seif Omar?
WALEED: No.

EDWARD: You exchange
emails with him.

I have them.
I can show them to you.

Do you know Seif Omar?

WALEED: No.

EDWARD: But you know who he is.
That he is active in al-Dhahab.

You exchange emails with him.

WALEED: So that's why
I am in here then?

EDWARD: No you are in here
because there's evidence ...

WALEED: So what? Does emailing
him make me a terrorist then?

By association?

EDWARD: No it doesn't.

EDWARD: You are going to stay
awhy you came to Cairo.n?

WALEED: Now let's get
one thing straight,

nothing else matters to
me except Allah's law.

EDWARD: Which you wish to
impose on the world by force.

WALEED: Force?
Force is your word.

Or would that thought
make me a terrorist?

EDWARD: No, not that alone.

WALEED: So does wanting
something to change make me

guilty of terrorism?

EDWARD: No, it doesn't.

WALEED: What about
the invasion of Iraq?

Does that make everyone in
BrConservative a terrorist?d

EDWARD: There is an
email that was sent ...

WALEED: I am British and I am
allowed to think what I like.

EDWARD: There is an
email that was sent...

WALEED: Me and you we
both got the same rights.

E"The Bed linen will be readyyou
bfor delivery in five weeks".e

WALEED: Yeah and
it was delivered.

EDWARD: What was delivered?

WALEED: The linen.

EDWARD: Linen is your
code word for ricin.

WALEED: What the fuck.
What the...

There is no code!
This is all wrong.

How can you even think that?

So is that why I'm in here then?

A linen order for my wife?

You know I thought you were
mental before - but this?

So I am in here, I'm in an
Egyptian police cell because

I ordered bed linen for my wife?

EDWARD: Mister Ahmed, we
know it's code for ricin.

WALEED: The sheets
arrived at my home!

Four double sheets
and six pillow cases!

EDWARD: You can buy bed sheets
on any High Street in Britain!

WALEED: Yeah I know
I can but I don't.

I buy from people who I
want to have my money.

Is that a crime too - not to buy
everything in the

British High Street!

So this is where you got the
idea to have

me arrested here then?

Seif Omar exports bed linen!

EDWARD: He is also in a chain
of command

that starts with al-Dhahab.

WALEED: I can't believe
I am hearing this.

EDWARD: Where have
you sent the ricin?

WALEED: So does everyone who
mentions a linen order in their

email get arrested -
or is it just Muslims?

EDWARD: You are not getting out
of here until you tell me where

you have sent that ricin.

WALEED: This is fucked up. I've
done nothing wrong.

What can I admit to?

There's nothing I can admit to.

EDWARD: Your training as a
chemist has come

in useful hasn't it?

For putting ricin into aerosol
cans for delivery to the UK.

WALEED: Oh yeah one year's
training as a chemist,

because my Dad wanted me to go
into business with him - that's

all your evidence?

justifying acts of terrorism in
evidenceyour preaching - of you

and your lectures ...

WALEED: See I have got
evidence of Bush, Blair,

Cameron and Obama preaching
terror in

Afghanistan, Iraq,
Pakistan ...

EDWARD: ... celebrating the
bombings of New York,

London, Paris, Madrid, Nairobi,
Abuja ...

WALEED: ... ordering drone
attacks on villages in Pakistan,

Afghanistan, Yemen,
Somalia ...

EDWARD: ... every act of murder
in the name of

Islam has been praised and
celebrated by you.

WALEED: I am British
and the rules are ...

EDWARD: I know the rules!

WALEED: How have you
got this so wrong?

EDWARD: You follow Arshad Rafiq?
Why?

WALEED: Because he teaches the
proper and only way to live.

EDWARD: You mean to
hate our country?

Because he teaches his followers
to kill until the streets of

England run red with blood
and you preach his message.

WALEED: He lights the
way of the Prophet.

Peace be upon him.

EDWARD: And you are
following his orders!

WALEED: And you are following
the orders of Blair and Cameron!

WALEED: Listen, all we say is
people should stand up and

defend themselves against
tyranny like they are doing,

all over the Arab States and
like they will

do in our country ...

EDWARD: Your and my
country is not a tyranny.

WALEED: Are you serious?

Britain's a lapdog of the
Americans in their crusade

against Muslims so finally
people are taking action.

EDWARD: And it's what you are
doing here - taking action.

WALEED: No.

EDWARD: And it's what you
are doing here in Cairo!

WEDWARD: Why do yout
bedhate us so much?fe!

WALEED: Where do you
want me to start?

EDWARD: What is it about us
that makes you want to kill us?

WALEED: I just want a peaceful
Islamic revolution but

are you going to allow that? No.

EDWARD: And so you're
gonna poison our air...

WALEED: For fucks sake man!

EDWARD: Come on, what is it
beabout us that makes!

you hate us so much?

WALEED: I just want my
country to be healed.

EDWARD: Healed?

WALEED: Yeah you deaf or
something, yeah healed.

EDWARD: You know, what
I can't stand about you,

is that you have had every
opportunity handed

to you on a plate.

Free schools, free health care,
free libraries, state handouts,

local government grants.

Freedom to say and
do what you want,

opportunity to go to university.

Freedom to pray in Muslim
centres built

for you by others for free.

All that freedom, all that
privilege and all you want to do

is vomit on us.

Don't talk to me about healed.
You want to destroy us!

WALEED: No it is you who
wants to destroy freedom,

the freedom to believe
what is in our hearts.

EDWARD: You know what, I am
going to make sure you never get

that freedom and privilege
in my country again.

You bring shame on your parents.

WALEED: Don't talk
about my parents!

EDWARD: Good people who worked
hard and gave you opportunities.

WALEED: Shut the fuck
up about my parents!

EDWARD: You have
spat in their faces!

WALEED: Fuck off! !

EDWARD: Sit down.

EDWARD: Sit down!

EDWARD: You have conspired with
al-Dhahab and I have the whole

chain of command!

WALEED: Ethics
are different now.

You can't do a
Guantanamo anymore.

You can't detain me forever and
ever and deny me my rights.

Those days are gone.

I've done nothing wrong.

You won't find any evidence
against me which means I've got

the whole British legal
system on my side.

EDWARD: Bad things are coming
to you and

you're gonna deserve them all.

WALEED: Nah, I win this one,
between me and you, I win.

WALEED: What's a nigger
doing in MI5 anyway?

EDWARD: What did you call me?

WALEED: You heard me
you fucking Kaffir.

I said how come they let a
nigger in the Establishment?

EDWARD: Because I
love my country.

You fucking piece of shit.

WALEED: It's already out there.
In the UK. Ready to go.

EDWARD: Ready to go how?

EDWARD: Ready to go how?

EDWARD: If you
don't tell me how ...

WALEED: But that
might not be true.

It might not be anywhere.

It might be all in
your imagination.

WALEED: That's what terror is.

You're just gonna
have to wait and see.

EDWARD: Why did you tell me
you didn't know Seif Omar,

when actually you went
to Yemen to meet him?

WALEED: No comment.

EDWARD: Why did Seif Omar
receive instructions on how to

put ricin into aerosol cans?

WALEED: No comment.

EDWARD: Why did Ismail Yassin
take you to a farm where they

grow castor beans
for ricin production?

WALEED: No comment.

[dial tone]

TONY: Yup?

EDWARD: Tony, any
news from London?

TONY: Look, er I'm afraid the
aerosol cans

didn't quite make the plane.

EDWARD: What?

TONY: But they'll be on the
first plane out tomorrow.

EDWARD: So the bag's still
there, just, just sitting there?

TONY: The driver got stuck in
traffic and

we just missed
it but as I say ...

EDWARD: Waleed sent the ricin
back to the UK two days ago,

that means it's
already at his address.

TONY: That is why they
are going on the

first plane out tomorrow.

EDWARD: Fuck!

[dial tone]

EDWARD: Colonel Hazem?

HAZEM: Mister Daniel! You have a
request for me?

EDWARD: Yes.

HAZEM: I will call you later.

EDWARD: Thank you.

[phone ringing]

HAZEM: Good morning
Mister Daniel!

HAZEM: How are you?

HAZEM: Did you sleep?

HAZEM: We have results.

HAZEM: Coffee?

EDWARD: Er, er no I'm okay.

HAZEM: [speaking Arabic]

HAZEM: Don't worry,
he's a friend of mine.

Mister Waleed Ahmed has
confessed to delivering ricin

back to your country
in twelve aerosol cans.

Enough to kill many
hundreds of people.

EDWARD: Where did he send them?

EDWARD: Saeed what?
What's that say?

HAZEM: Bari.
EDWARD: Saeed Bari?

HAZEM: Uhum.

EDWARD: Derby?
HAZEM: A city in the UK?

EDWARD: Yeah.
HAZEM: Hmm.

EDWARD: Right.

EDWARD: Uhm, what
happened to him?

Is it visual? What you did?

HAZEM: No. More ...

EDWARD: How is he now?

HAZEM: Do we care?

EDWARD: I mean, will
he need treatment.

What can I expect?

HAZEM: You can
expect an angry man.

[dial tone]

THOMAS: Hello?

EDWARD: Thomas?
I've got an address.

[phone ringing]

EDWARD: Tony.

TONY: Where are you?

EDWARD: In a taxi.

TONY: We've got a problem.

Meet me at El-Nasr police
station right away.

TONY: [speaking Arabic]

TONY: Can you tell
us what happened?

WALEED: Just, please
get me a doctor.

TONY: We will certainly
get you a doctor, yes.

WALEED: Now, now please,
just get me one now.

TONY: We will, yeah.

Can you tell us what happened?

WALEED: Please just
get me out of here?

Just get me out.

TONY: The doctor will decide
whether to transfer

you to a hospital.

Can you tell me what happened?
Mr Ahmed.

I can assure you we will carry
out a thorough investigation.

WALEED: Start with him ...

TONY: I want to
know what happened.

WALEED: Yesterday, he
threatened me, grabbed my neck,

pushed me to the floor. .

TONY: Did you see him yesterday?

EDWARD: Yes. But I did not cause
these injuries, Mister Ahmed.

WALEED: He hates me.

TONY: Right, I am
going to call a doctor.

And I'd like to speak to
him for a moment on my own.

TONY: [speaking Arabic]

WALEED: Bad things
are coming to you.

TONY: Have you been in
contact with Colonel Hazem?

EDWARD: Yes.
TONY: You knew about this?

EDWARD: I knew about
his interrogation yes.

And, as a result, I have got the
address where

he has sent the ricin.

It's an address in Derby and
it's being dealt

with as we speak.

TONY: This better
work out for you.

Otherwise we are absolutely
and totally fucked .

EDWARD: Thanks.

TONY: I have some good news for
you:

one can
has tested positive for ricin.

TONY: Well done.

I think you might just have got
away with it.

EDWARD: The question is whether
we'll get there in time.

Thanks for your help.

THOMAS: Edward ...

THOMAS: Got a minute?

EDWARD: Yeah.

THOMAS: The address in
Derby is a false one.

THOMAS: The house belongs to a
retired railway worker called

Alfred Charlton and his
disabled wife Margaret.

EDWARD: Right.

THOMAS: Bad news, I'm sorry.

EDWARD: But we do have a
positive result on the Ricin.

THOMAS: Yes we do. Judith, er
wants to see you.

EDWARD: Okay.
THOMAS: She's waiting now.

EDWARD: What right now?
THOMAS: She's in her office.

EDWARD: Is there
anything I should know?

THOMAS: I don't think so.

EDWARD: Does she know the
address turned

out to be a false one?

THOMAS: Yes.

EDWARD: Well how much
else does she know?

THOMAS: She's been fully
briefed at this end.

EDWARD: I'll report back
to you then, shall I?

THOMAS: Yes. Do that.

SECRETARY: She's
ready to see you.

JUDITH: Hello, Edward. Please
sit down.

JUDITH: This was taken by an
Egyptian blogger with inside

information, who has been
tracking a notorious colonel,

in the State Security
Service by the name of Hazem.

JUDITH: You appear to have
been caught up in this expose.

Accompanying the photograph is a
story on a British spy complicit

in Colonel Hazem's torture of
a British man in a Cairo jail.

JUDITH: The information is very
detailed and

the photograph irrefutable.

JUDITH: Tomorrow, this
will be everywhere.

And of course it is only
a matter of time, hours,

before you will be
personally identified.

JUDITH: Is it true?

Did you ask this Colonel to
torture Mister Waleed Ahmed?

EDWARD: Yes. I did.

What else could I have done
- weighing up the illegality

against the consequences
of doing nothing?

I have always understood
that we work with politically

unacceptable regimes if it means
that we are safeguarding our

people from attack at home.

It's what you've
said to me yourself.

JUDITH: But we cannot break the
regulations set

by Parliament and you have.

EDWARD: The regulations
were not working.

I am in the Service to protect
my fellow citizens not to

protect the rights of someone
who is trying to kill us!

JUDITH: Edward, we are not
here to discuss your ethics.

We are here because you have
been exposed to public scrutiny

and more importantly, because
you have exposed the

Service to public scrutiny.

And so you see now, it is
all about damage limitation.

We cannot raise the defence that
what you did was to protect the

country because we cannot
publicly admit

that ricin is at large - it
would cause countrywide panic.

Neither can we claim that Waleed
Ahmed is a terrorist because we

cannot produce sufficient
evidence to charge him.

And what we have got against him
has been

rendered useless by his torture.

JUDITH: Mister Waleed Ahmed has
been devastatingly cunning and

you have been
devastatingly careless.

For all this, we still could
have protected you

-we would have protected you -
but you got found out.

And that leaves us unable to
either protect you

or to defend your conduct.

JUDITH: The Director General has
no option but to present this to

the Home Secretary as a
case of one bad apple.

The consequences of regarding
yourself as a persecuted

outsider - your tendency to
operate alone and your somewhat

obsessive behaviour -have left
you in an untenable situation

and I have no choice but to
suspend

you until further notice.

And it is only fair to warn
you that in this period of

suspension, it would be wise for
you to consider where else you

might wish to
continue your career.

EDWARD: Everything I have done
has been for my country

and for the people of my
country.

I had no choice.

SOLICITOR : Okay?

SOLICITOR: My client is here to
remind the Security Services of

this country that he is a ...

SOLICITOR: ... citizen of this
country.

And no more or less British than
themselves - or anyone born here

and to whom this is home.

That he cannot visit family in
Yemen and visit friends in Egypt

on his way home without being
detained

and subject to torture ...

SOLICITOR: ... by the very
people who exist to

protect him brings shame upon
us all.

My client asks that you now
respect his privacy and allow

him to return to his
community and to his family.

Thank you.
