-
Kensington 3487?
-
Yes.
-
Who was it, darling?
-
Evelyn?
-
Doctor Ross!
-
Doctor Ross!
-
Doctor Ross?
What is it?
-
I can't stop the bleeding.
-
He needs a transfusion.
Get him onto the ward.
-
Was he with anyone?
I don't know.
-
What?
-
Ten-eye. Ten...
-
Ten-eye.
-
Ten-eye?
Ten-eye.
-
Fetch a trolley.
-
Bring the blood.
-
He's gone.

'Miss Pierce,
Sir Alec will see you now.'
-
Thank you, Louise.
-
For you at reception.
-
Yes, they should be ready
in about an hour.
-
Thank you for holding the fort,
Miss Pierce. All things considered,
-
it could be a lot worse.
Thank you, Sir Alec.
-
Pity about Chambers,
but there we are. Onward and upward.
-
Onward and upward.
-
Now, this puzzled me - 'Mr Foyle.'
-
Sir William brought him in.
Reliable?
-
Absolutely. Unusual background
for intelligence - police.
-
He's an outsider admittedly,
but that might be his strength.
-
With these defectors, a bit
of detective work might be just
the thing. Where is he now?
-
Helping out with recruitment.
A waste of his talent. Bring him in.
-
Thank you, Charlotte.
Yes.
-
Come in.
Thank you.
-
Daniel Willis?
-
That's right.
-
How do you do?
Sit down.
-
I see you were in Special Operations
Executive during the war.
-
I was, sir. Yes.
You should be very proud.
-
I'm not sure everyone in the service
would agree with you!
-
I heard you lot thought
we were amateurs,
-
disrupting your
finely tuned operations
-
by running around,
blowing up bridges!
-
Which is why I'm here, of course.
-
I feel invisible sabotage
is preferable.
-
Every time we destroyed something,
-
the SS would kill hundreds
of innocent civilians.
-
That wasn't easy to live with.
-
But you managed?
I did.
-
Not that I don't think about it.
-
But they had to be beaten,
didn't they?
-
And now you feel you'd like to do
work that's a little more cerebral?
-
Your job here would be to find
people who have information we need
-
and persuade them to give it
to you...
-
by more subtle means
than the SOE would have used.
-
Building bridges rather than
blowing them up, so to speak.
-
Indeed.
-
The powers that be want us
to absorb the rump of the SOE.
-
But I just don't think
they're suitable.
-
I understand we're looking
for people who are astute
-
with an ability to see
the other person's point of view.
He seems to fit the bill.
-
I'm sorry, can't agree.
Not for me, I'm afraid.
-
That's right, same size,
different name...
-
Mr Foyle?
-
Yes?
Sir Alec would like a word with you.
-
Sorry, by Friday, yes. Thank you.
-
In the last few days, three
high-ranking Russian defectors -
-
our responsibility and in our safe
houses - have been found murdered.
-
As you can see each one
has been garrotted
-
in exactly the same manner,
typical of an NKVD operation.
-
I've ordered a sweep
of the refugee centres.
-
Any Russian we find
will be questioned.
-
But more importantly, how exactly
did they find those safe houses?
-
If we have another security breach,
I need to know.
-
Wouldn't Valentine
be more suited to this?
-
Valentine was in charge of
the safe houses.
-
It needs to be someone
who wasn't involved.
-
I'm starting to get the impression
-
that I've inherited an organisation
that is somewhat complacent.
-
I'd be grateful, Mr Foyle,
if you'd prove me wrong.
-
Here we are. You can bring in
a potted plant if you want,
-
but no family snaps.
They're discouraged. Right.
-
And you can draw your Royal
from the stationary store. Royal?
-
Royal Arrow. Typewriter.
-
You'll need it.
Letters, reports, it never stops.
-
You did do the induction course,
didn't you?
-
This is your desk.
As Mr Foyle's assistant
you'll work in this section.
-
What's your WPM?
Er, twenty.
-
I'm sure you'll speed up
with practice. Driving license?
-
Oh, yes.
-
Miss Brown, when you have a moment?
Certainly, Mr Valentine.
-
I'd watch out for him.
He hates joiners.
-
Joiners?
Well, that's you, I'm afraid.
-
It's what we call anyone who's new.
But he'll soon get used to you.
-
I've been here three years now,
and he's almost friendly!
-
How you getting on?
So far, so good.
-
Right, your first job,
you'll like this -
-
three Russian defectors,
all of them murdered.
-
I want the files on anyone
who had contact with them
and anything related.
-
As quick as you like.
If you're in trouble, ask Charlotte.
-
If we start down that end.
Morning. Morning.
-
And we work our way around.
-
Right, now remember -
don't let them get the upper hand.
-
Make your point clearly and
don't get involved in an argument
-
about something you know
bugger all about! Alright?
-
Come on.
-
I'm your Labour party candidate
in the forthcoming by-election.
-
I wanted to talk to you a bit
about our new National Health Act.
-
Never mind, come on.
-
Lord Beaverbrook says, 'The
English will only vote for a man
who wears a hat.' Have mine.
-
Good morning, I'm your
Labour candidate in the -
-
This next house is full of people
who still haven't been re-housed.
-
Great, they'll be thrilled
to see us!
-
I got one or two down
as a possible vote.
-
This one?
Kids, time to come in!
-
I'm standing as your Labour
candidate in the forthcoming
by-election.
-
I was wondering
if I could have a moment?
-
I'm sorry, dear. I don't mean to
be rude, but it's not a good time.
-
I'm sorry. Is there anything
I can do to help?
-
- No, I don't think so.
- Go and wash your hands!
-
Are you sure?
-
Well, perhaps you can ask the police
-
why nobody is
looking for my daughter.
-
She's missing. Hasn't been home
for the last three days.
-
Could she be staying with friends?
No, it's not like her.
-
She hasn't turned up for work.
-
They say she has to be gone
a bit longer
-
before they'll declare her
a missing person.
-
But she could be lying in a ditch
for all I know.
-
They just don't care
about people like us.
-
Well, we'll certainly make some
enquiries for you, won't we Glenvil?
-
Uh...
What's your daughter's name?
-
Evelyn, Evelyn Green.
-
Why'd you say that?
-
It's a matter for the police, Adam.
It's nothing to do with us.
-
Let's try this one.
-
Ooh, sorry!
Sorry.
-
Yes?
-
Well done.
I think that's everything.
-
And I've included a police report
that came in last night. A suicide.
-
Unidentified, apparently Russian.
-
I'm not sure if that's relevant
or not. Thank you.
-
Anything else?
No.
-
No identification card?
No.
-
No ration book?
-
Nothing.
-
His wrists were slashed,
which would indicate suicide...
-
but he has two broken fingers,
a nasty bump on the head,
-
severe bruising to his ribs
and a deep gash on his arm.
-
So, he'd obviously been
in a struggle of some kind.
-
In your statement
in the police report,
-
you say you thought
he'd been followed?
-
I thought I glimpsed someone,
in uniform.
-
And you think he's Russian?
Could be Russian. He was rambling.
-
The only word I could make out
was 'Ten eye'.
-
He kept saying 'Ten eye'.
-
Ten eye? I wouldn't be surprised
if he had killed himself.
-
The Russians have been through hell.
-
What's this, do you think?
-
Looks like a tattoo
that's been removed.
-
What would make somebody do that,
I wonder?
-
Russian Gestapo?
-
This dead man,
the Russian you've found
and our three defectors.
-
Are they connected?
Well yes, it's possible.
-
He could have killed them -
but how did he find them?
-
This has just come through
from the Foreign Office.
-
A translator in their Russian
department, one Evelyn Green,
-
hasn't turned up for work
in the last two days
-
and her husband has no idea
where she is.
-
She liaised with the defectors
so she knew the addresses
of the safe houses.
-
Bit of a coincidence her
disappearing, don't you think?
-
Look into it for me, would you?
Hm.
-
New shoes? D'you like them?
They're all the rage.
-
They're calling it 'The Coupon
Buster'. Oh really? Why?
-
Instead of five coupons for
one shoe, you get three shoes!
-
Look.
-
High heels transformed
into a sensible day shoe...
-
then with a small bow on the front,
-
and the heels back off...
-
A dress shoe.
-
Do you know what the NKVD is?
Russian Gestapo, sir.
-
Correct. They have an emblem,
insignia.
-
See if you can get a picture of it.
-
Brown book, top shelf.
-
Your Russian's pretty good, isn't it?
Very good, sir.
-
Is 'Ten eye'
a Russian word or phrase?
-
Not something I've heard.
How are we spelling it?
-
Well, T-E-N-I? E-Y-E maybe?
-
It isn't any word I've heard.
Where did you hear it?
-
The last word of a dying man.
-
Here.
Who was he?
-
Don't know.
-
Ten eye? Maybe it isn't Russian?
-
Maybe it was "antenna"
or "Anthony" or "deny"?
-
What makes you think he was Russian?
-
Well he... It appears he was a member
of the NKVD.
-
Everybody, back to work.
Thank you.
-
I'll keep working on it, sir.
-
We were about to have dinner.
Everything seemed normal.
-
I was sitting here, reading the
paper. And then the telephone rang.
-
Evelyn answered it,
all I heard her say was 'yes'.
-
Then, I heard her go upstairs
-
and down again a moment later,
into the hall.
-
I called out,
but she didn't answer.
-
So after a moment I followed
her out into the hall
-
to see what was happening.
-
And she'd gone. The front door was
open and she'd simply disappeared.
-
Um, what sort of time was this?
About 6:30.
-
Is that her?
-
Yes, our honeymoon.
-
I called her sister.
-
Her parents are dead so that's
the first place she'd have gone.
-
But she hadn't heard a word.
-
I saw on her file that she was a
Communist sympathiser at Cambridge.
Is that right?
-
She's renounced all that stuff
years ago.
-
I know she's suspected of something.
Otherwise you wouldn't be here.
-
But I can assure you that
my wife loathed Communism.
-
So you can't think of any reason,
why she'd have left?
-
I've thought for some time...
there might be another man.
-
She'd become more and more distant.
-
Look, I can't say for certain, but
you sense these things, don't you?
-
Even if you don't want
to believe it.
-
She said he didn't even
come home!
-
Nobody said
it was going to be easy.
-
Trouble is they're blaming Labour
for all the shortages.
-
Life's getting harder.
That's the truth.
-
We need some sugar
to help the medicine go down.
-
You need to er, appeal
to their better nature, Adam,
-
the sense of community.
-
You know, tell them
the war may be over,
-
but we're still all in it together.
-
I don't think you should
hark back to the war.
-
You'll only remind them
of Churchill.
-
Sam's right.
I should talk about the future.
-
People don't want things
to go back to the way they were,
-
I know they don't. If people realise
what a national health service
means for them and their families,
-
I don't think they'll be slamming
doors on us. I really don't.
-
Excuse me, what are you doing?
Sorry ma'am. Orders.
-
Wait!
We've got to take him.
-
Please!
-
They just barged in, took him away.
-
The police?
No, not the police. Two soldiers.
-
Where were they from?
-
I'll see you bright and early?
You will indeed.
-
Have a good night's sleep.
-
I'm afraid it's leftover stew.
I blame the Government!
-
While I was canvassing
in Wilberforce Road,
-
I met a woman called Mrs Green.
-
There were two families
living in the front room
of her bombed-out house.
-
And to top it all off, this poor
woman's daughter has gone missing
-
and no one is doing anything
about it.
-
And if I could get elected I just
feel I could make a difference
to these people's lives.
-
I know you could. And you will.
-
Do you think you could come along
to campaign?
-
A married couple together.
Perhaps they'd react differently.
-
Of course.
-
I'll see if I can
get the morning off.
-
Foyle.
It's Dr Ross.
-
I was hoping you'd still be there.
-
You told me to call if there
was anything else I thought
you should know.
-
We've had a case of body snatching.
-
'Our Russian friend.'
-
When was this?
-
'This evening.
The military collected his remains.'
-
There's one other thing.
It might not be important,
-
but erm, could I show you something
in the morning? Not at the hospital.
-
Where do you suggest?
-
Mrs Ross?
Yes.
-
Erm...
-
So he didn't mention I was coming?
-
No. He didn't.
He has been working all night.
-
He gets carried away and before he
realises, it is time for breakfast.
-
I'll get him.
-
Ian. There's someone here
to see you!
-
Just go down,
it's the second door on the right.
-
Hello?
-
'Er, hello? Yes.'
-
'Would you mind very much
if we called you back later?'
-
Hello?
-
Darling, it's the hospital
on the telephone for you.
-
Ian?
-
Ian?
-
Mrs Ross?
-
Never seen anything like this
before.
-
It appears he wrapped
this Colt revolver in a towel
-
to muffle the sound -
wife didn't hear a thing.
-
Wouldn't you say?
-
Well, I'd say it's perhaps better
to resist jumping to conclusions,
-
and avoid contaminating
what could be the scene of a crime.
-
Well, from where I'm standing, Mr
Foyle, it seems as clear as crystal.
-
Suicide.
-
They tell me it's as common
as a forged ration book these days.
-
Were you aware your husband
owned a revolver?
-
No. He abhorred violence.
-
How long have you two
been together exactly?
-
We were married in Germany
just as Hitler came to power,
-
but were forced to separate
under their compulsory divorce law.
-
So you're not Mrs Ross?
-
We were getting re-married
next week.
-
Do I understand this correctly?
-
You're not currently married to
the deceased - but engaged?
-
Yes.
-
And er, what do you do, exactly?
-
I am also a doctor.
-
Or I was, before my license
was revoked.
-
On what ground?
-
On the grounds of being Jewish.
-
And er, how long was Doctor Ross
down in the basement?
-
All night.
Had you argued?
-
No! No, he often worked late.
-
Are you sure?
-
It's not uncommon for people
to have a change of heart.
-
Is it possible your husband may
have felt trapped into marrying you
-
and this was his way out -
I fought to stay alive,
-
so I could be with him.
-
I fought with every fibre
of my being.
-
He wouldn't do this.
He wouldn't do this to me!
-
I think that'll do for the moment,
don't you?
-
I don't think it's suicide.
-
Why exactly?
-
Well, he was about to get married.
-
He called me last night
to arrange a meeting this morning,
-
he was very eager
that it should take place.
-
The gun was found in his right hand,
Dr Ross was left-handed.
-
At the very least, it's suspicious.
-
What we want to know, Mr Wainwright,
-
is when will this rationing
finally stop?
-
We seem to have won the war
but lost the peace.
-
Oh, I agree. Since the US stopped
lend lease we've been struggling.
-
But we plan to invest in
the country, build new houses,
-
create jobs. I really believe
we've got a bright future.
-
But what about today,
the here and now?
-
Our butcher is sleeping in his
shop with a loaded shotgun -
-
he's that afraid of thieves.
-
Well, at least if he shoots one
we'll finally get some smoked ham!
-
Thank you very much, ladies.
-
Sam really is an asset.
-
Get her out on the campaign trail
as much as possible.
-
Do you think we could get a picture
of the candidate's wife
-
with the new government
bread ration? Oh! Erm, of course.
-
I'll just go and get Sam.
Thank you.
-
What was that about?
I don't know!
-
Bread, apparently!
-
That's the woman I told you about,
Mrs Green.
-
Her daughter went missing. Oh yes.
By the looks of her, she still is.
-
I said I'd help her -
I just haven't had the time.
-
Poor woman.
-
Do me a favour.
Give this to Mr Valentine for me?
-
Evelyn Green?
-
She's in Berlin,
in the Russian zone?
-
That's not possible,
I can't believe it!
-
No, not here...
-
Yes?
-
Well, I'll look.
-
Yes? Is there something else?
-
No, sir.
-
No, not you, there's somebody else.
-
Now, what's your source? Berlin?
-
It's just...
-
It's Valentine here.
-
The girl we passed onto you,
you're going to have to let her go.
-
Well then, my advice would be
to find some other solution.
-
This is not good enough!
-
I need to know how this woman
got all the way to Berlin
-
and into the Russian Zone,
for heaven's sake!
-
I don't know, sir.
Though with respect, I'd say it
was down to the Foreign Office.
-
Meaning?
Evelyn Green worked for them.
-
If she was passing information,
they should have spotted it.
-
Well, she wasn't adequately vetted -
and that is down to us.
-
At least we know
who compromised the safe houses.
-
And is that all we know, Valentine?
-
Are you keeping anything from me?
Absolutely not!
-
We're questioning everyone
in her department to see
if they know anything.
-
If there are any more rotten apples,
we'll find them.
-
And this time, maybe,
BEFORE it's too late.
-
Oh, just a moment, Miss Brown?
-
Can you keep me informed
as to what Foyle's up to?
-
Mr Foyle?
-
He's not one of us yet.
He's still learning the ropes.
-
That's all.
I understand.
-
Hello.
-
To what do I owe the honour
of lunch with my beautiful wife?
-
Well, I saw something at work today
that might interest you.
-
As long as it's not top secret!
-
Actually, it was. I saw a file
on a girl named Evelyn Green.
-
Wasn't that the name of the girl
who went missing?
-
An MI5 file.
-
If this document was secret, should
you even be telling me about it?
-
No, I shouldn't. Absolutely not.
-
But I had to tell you.
-
What are you going to do about it?
-
I think we should speak to Mr Foyle.
-
Dr Ross was such a kind man.
-
You know what? I can't get over
what happened to him.
-
He seemed perfectly fine.
-
You'd think after all the suffering
I've seen, I'd get used to it.
-
He and I had arranged
a meeting this morning.
-
He was keen to talk to me
about something.
-
Any idea what that might have been?
No.
-
I didn't see him
after he was called out.
-
There'd been a car accident
near Barton Hall.
-
He had to treat someone over there.
-
Barton Hall?
-
It's a few miles south of here.
It was an army camp during the war.
-
What is it now?
I'm not sure.
-
Sorry. This is Government property.
I'll have to ask you to turn back.
-
Would it be possible to speak
to whomever is in charge?
-
It would not, sir.
I'm with, erm...
-
I can see, sir, but it's still
not possible, not without
the proper clearance. I see.
-
Could please turn around and go
back? I understand, thank you.
-
MI5. Tin Eye will need
to know about this.
-
Morning.
Morning.
-
Darling, after the election,
when things quieten down a bit,
-
I thought I might do
a foreign language course
at the Berlitz school.
-
Well, it certainly looks like things
will quieten down. For us at least.
-
'Labour candidate's wife
joins Conservative Campaign.'
-
What's this?
They're complaining that the
loaves the Government are issuing
-
are getting smaller -
which they are.
-
Oh, Adam! I'm so sorry.
-
I had no idea
people could be so devious.
-
Politics, Sam.
You better get used to it.
-
Don't worry. I'm sure we'll develop
thicker skins.
-
If you hear any news
about Mrs Green's daughter,
-
will you let me know?
You've got me worried now too.
-
Come in. I'm just getting ready.
-
Have you heard anything about
the girl from Wilberforce Road?
-
The one who's missing?
I haven't, no.
-
We could pop over there later,
see how the mother is?
-
Why? She's not even going
to vote Labour.
-
It's not her vote I'm interested
in, Glenvil. It's her.
-
I think you need to concentrate
on this campaign.
-
Cos boy, you've got your work
cut out now. I've seen it.
-
Yeah? She was stitched right up.
-
But not to worry, I've got
a few tricks up my sleeve.
-
It turns out our Tory candidate
was a war profiteer.
-
Sat it out and made a fortune
in condensed milk.
-
He's been trying to keep that quiet.
-
I'll have a word in the shell-like
of a local reporter.
-
That should lose him a few votes.
-
I didn't get into politics
to play games, Glenvil.
-
I want to create a society
that looks after those
who can't look after themselves.
-
But if you don't win, it'll
be their policies and not ours.
-
If winning means changing my
principles, then I'd rather lose.
-
We do this fair and square
or we don't do it at all.
-
It would help to have access
to the place.
-
Miss Pierce?
That won't be easy.
-
Why ever not? What exactly
is the function of Barton Hall?
-
They eavesdrop on Soviet
radio traffic, extract call signs,
-
frequencies, pass on messages
to the Americans.
-
They like to keep themselves
to themselves.
-
A little inter-departmental
cooperation might be sensible
in the circumstances?
-
What are you hoping to find?
It's not impossible there's a link
-
between the place
and the dead Russian.
-
Is it necessary?
We know Evelyn Green is our leak.
-
She may well be the leak. But
how did she know when to disappear?
-
Three dead defectors in her care.
-
She knew it was only a matter
of time before we found her!
-
Well, her timing was perfect.
A lucky guess, or was she told?
-
I'm sorry for the mess.
It's a bit crowded in here.
-
We're still waiting for
the compensation.
-
I plan to do something about that
if I'm elected.
-
It's nice of you to come by, but I
want you to know, I'm not political.
-
My Alfred was the Labour man.
-
I can't remember the last time
I voted for anything.
-
I'm not here for your vote.
I just wanted to see how you were.
-
But even if you don't vote for me,
you should still vote.
-
It's what we fought for.
-
I lost Alfred at the end of the war.
-
He was on a minesweeper
when it was sunk by a U-boat.
-
Two days in the water
before they picked him up.
-
He caught pneumonia. Died on VE day.
-
I don't know what I'll do
if I've lost Evelyn as well.
-
There's just no reason to go on,
is there?
-
Please, don't think like that.
-
There's always a reason.
Have you heard from the police?
-
No, not a word.
-
Well, I'm going to speak to them
myself about this.
-
I'm sure they'll find her.
-
Something awful's happened to her.
I can feel it.
-
Very nice. Thank you.
-
There was something we wanted
to talk to you about. What's that?
-
Well...
-
One of Adam's constituents
has a daughter
-
who has been missing for some time.
-
The woman is distraught because she
has no idea what's happened to her
-
and the police don't appear
to be doing anything about it.
-
We thought you might be able
to help.
-
What makes you think that?
-
Yesterday, at the office,
-
I accidently came across a file
on the missing woman.
-
We thought it might be a clue
as how to find her.
-
What does, "accidentally" mean?
-
Mr Valentine requested the file -
I took a look inside.
-
Well, information on file within the
service is not for public discussion.
-
I'm not at liberty to talk about it,
neither are you. They're the rules.
-
So what else did you find out?
-
That she works
at the Foreign Office.
-
What's her name?
Green. Evelyn Green.
-
This is my fault, sir.
-
Mr Foyle's right. This isn't
something we should get involved in.
-
She's going to be
one of your constituents.
-
Nobody seems to care that she's
disappeared into thin air! I do.
-
Leave it with me.
-
Don't open files unless asked.
You could get yourself into trouble.
-
I didn't intend to. I felt compelled
when I saw the name.
-
And I also overheard
Mr Valentine ask Charlotte
-
to let him know how your
investigation's going?
-
Why he can't just ask you himself?
-
Oh? I see.
-
Mr Foyle, McDonald.
Major James McDonald. How do you do?
-
This is Lieutenant Colonel Galt.
He's in charge of the station.
-
How do you do?
Shall we get on?
-
You must have friends
in very high places, Mr Foyle,
-
to be allowed a guided tour
like this.
-
Well, your time is very much
appreciated, thank you.
-
Now, as I am sure you know,
our job is to collect radio traffic
-
which is then encrypted
and sent on to be analysed.
-
That's our DF hut.
-
It has to be a hundred yards or so
away from the main building
to minimise interference.
-
Shall we continue?
Yes, of course.
-
Watch the young lady, will you?
-
Why don't we show Mr Foyle
the transcription room?
-
We haven't got all day, after all.
-
Look, I'm sorry Mr Foyle.
-
Don't mind Colonel Galt,
it's just his manner. Mm.
-
This way.
-
Here it is.
-
Much of what we intercept
we transcribe here by hand,
-
and then we send it on to
Bletchley Park by motorbike.
-
As you can see it's all rather
technical and a little dull.
-
Not at all. Fascinating.
-
We're just taking dictation,
aren't we, Colonel?
-
The heavy lifting is done
by the code breakers.
-
The room is manned 24 hours a day,
365 days a year.
-
There you have it.
Ah, and the rest of the house?
-
Upstairs, sleeping quarters
for the men.
-
Radio equipment in the basement.
Off limits, I'm afraid.
-
To be honest, just a tangle of wires
and little boxes that beep. Drink?
-
So you understand,
-
what we do here is vital to
national security. Thank you.
-
Your discretion is taken for
granted. Well, of course.
-
Hm.
-
There's just one question.
Which is?
-
We've been trying to identify
a suspected Russian agent
-
who turned up in a hospital not far
from here. Any idea who he might be?
-
Really? That is a concern.
-
Well, not any longer, he's dead.
Suicide apparently.
-
And a doctor at the very
same hospital, coincidentally,
-
has also been found dead.
A Doctor Ross, mean anything?
-
Ross.
No.
-
Again, not familiar. Sorry.
-
If you'll excuse me?
-
McDonald! Foyle?
-
Mr Foyle?
-
Ah, there you are!
-
Beg your pardon. Forgot my hat.
-
This way please. Yes, of course.
Thank you, very enlightening.
-
There was something
going on in the cellar that
wasn't part of the tour.
-
And the activity in the transcript
room was clearly for my benefit.
-
Yes. There is something odd
about the place.
-
Did you see any women about?
-
No.
I found this.
-
What's that? It's the bow
from a pair of coupon busters.
-
What are they?
Shoes.
-
All the girls are wearing them.
Yet not a woman in sight.
-
Incidentally, 'ten eye'
turns out to be 'tin eye'
-
and is the name given to
a man with a monocle. Oh?
-
Let Charlotte know, would you?
Of course.
-
This is Mr Foyle and his assistant.
They used to work for the police.
-
Do, do sit down.
-
We hoped you wouldn't mind
telling us a bit about your daughter?
-
I've already told the police
everything.
-
Well, just to make sure they haven't
missed anything. Is that alright?
-
She's how old?
Twenty seven, three weeks ago.
-
And she's working at...?
Leyton's, the haberdashers.
-
She's been there about a year.
-
Not the Foreign Office?
The Foreign Office?
-
Might there be a photograph of her
we could take a look at?
-
This was taken on her birthday.
-
New shoes?
That's right.
-
She got them for her birthday,
coupon busters, she so wanted them.
-
She was wearing them
when she went missing.
-
Nana!
Ah!
-
That's lovely!
-
We shot a bow and arrow
in the garden.
-
So, what d'you think?
-
There are two Evelyn Greens -
one of them is at Barton Hall,
-
where's the other one?
East Berlin.
-
But what possible reason
could there be
-
for this Evelyn Green
to be at Barton Hall? Yup.
-
'I'm not asking you
to do anything very difficult.
So just do it!'
-
'Yes sir!'
-
Problem?
-
Bloody Foreign Office!
Can I help you?
-
Well, how nice that would be.
-
Galt. Lieutenant Colonel Harry Galt.
-
Dealings with him?
Not personally, no.
-
What can you tell me?
-
Not known for his easy going charm,
I hear!
-
What is he known for?
-
Far East, section five.
Counter-espionage.
-
A very effective officer
by all accounts.
-
So wasted at a Y-station,
would you say?
-
Yes, I suppose he is.
-
Ah, that's as helpful as you get,
is it?
-
Would you mind closing the door?
-
Thanks for coming.
My pleasure. I'm not sure if this
is still part of the interview?
-
Unfortunately not. It didn't
go your way I'm afraid.
-
The service doesn't
appear to be ready for you yet.
-
I'd hoped I'd done enough.
Well, little to do with you,
-
apart from not going to the right
school perhaps. Then why am I here?
-
There's a job I can offer you,
-
which you'd be perfectly
entitled to refuse,
-
it'd be off the record
and regrettably off the payroll.
-
I'm happy to help the service.
-
Well, you should hear what
I'm asking you to do first.
-
Get in the back.
-
It's perhaps a combination of, er...
-
information gathering
and salvage operation.
-
With not a bridge in sight,
you'll be pleased to hear.
-
Is she the incentive?
She is the salvage.
-
Her name is Evelyn Green.
-
I think she's being held
at this place, Barton Hall.
-
When Ian got back
from the car accident
-
he came straight down here
and started working.
-
The only thing on his mind was
some blood tests he wanted to check.
-
He conducted experiments here
for his research.
-
He was so disorganised.
-
I tried to help him to sort out
this mess, but he liked it this way.
-
What are these?
-
Oh, tick... er ticks, tick bites.
-
Insect bites, part of his study
into infectious diseases.
-
He plans... planned to specialise.
-
What do you think you'll do now?
-
I was going to apply for British
Nationality once we were married.
-
But, they have told me
I must go back to Germany.
-
And you'd be unlikely
to want to do that?
-
Yes.
-
You survived.
-
I did.
-
The rest of my family did not.
I survived.
-
And now there are people in our home
and they won't leave.
-
It has happened to so many Jews.
-
They thought their troubles
would be over
-
when they opened the gates
to Belsen and Dachau,
-
but they were just beginning.
-
What if it happens again?
-
If Stalin has his way, it could.
-
It might be possible to get you
authorisation to stay?
-
I don't have the proper papers.
-
I don't even have my birth
certificate. It's hopeless.
-
Officially I do not exist.
-
The more I think about it,
-
it is possible
Ian took his own life.
-
He was deported for some articles he
wrote criticising Das Dritte Reich.
-
And when I went to Auschwitz,
he blamed himself.
-
He kept asking me
what it was like there.
-
I couldn't tell him what I saw,
he was too fragile for that.
-
How could he do it?
-
How could he leave me?
-
DS Jones?
-
'Foyle here, we met at
Dr Ross' house.' Mr Foyle.
-
I wondered if you'd be able
to help with some information
-
about a car accident about five days
ago, possible military vehicle?
-
Is that still giving you trouble?
I beg your pardon?
-
Your wrist. I spotted it was
bothering you the last time we met.
-
It's a tick bit, I think.
The damn thing's infected.
-
How did you know about this?
-
I understand you were involved
in a bit of a car accident
the other night?
-
That's right. I'm not used
to these country roads.
-
I had a dizzy turn and before
I knew it I ended up in a ditch.
-
And you - I'm sorry, I have
a meeting. Is there anything else
I can help you with?
-
Well, I sincerely hope so.
-
I've come to give you another
opportunity to tell me the truth.
-
I'm sorry?
-
The Russian's last words
were 'Tin Eye'.
-
Colonel Galt is known as Tin Eye,
correct? He is.
-
So he knew exactly who Galt was
-
and quite obviously spent time
at Barton Hall. You denied this.
-
You must understand. This can't
go any further. Of course.
-
We discovered this Russian
trying to break in.
-
Colonel Galt assumed he was spying
and had him detained.
-
Personally I thought
he was just looking for food.
-
And what about his wounds?
-
Galt is an exceptional CO, but he
was quite paranoid about this man.
-
He suspected he might be a spy
-
and allowed some of the men
to get carried away
-
while they were questioning him.
-
Personally, I didn't think he was
a spy. He claimed to be a refugee.
-
I believed him. There must be
hundreds like him who defected
at the end of the war.
-
Anyway, when this Russian realised
that Galt didn't believe him...
-
he thought he was going to be
deported and sent back to Russia.
-
That seemed to be the last straw.
-
He got hold of a knife
and tried to kill himself.
-
We were taking him to a military
hospital when he made a run for it.
-
And you didn't tell me
any of this before because...?
-
We can't attract attention
to ourselves.
-
What's his name?
-
Palenko.
I think that's what he said.
-
Do you want to sign for it?
-
Sam.
Sir.
-
I need you to get me the file
on Lieutenant Colonel Harry Galt
and leave it in my office.
-
I don't know if this
is important or not,
-
but I just saw the dispatch rider
from Barton Hall here.
-
Right. Hm.
-
Evening, sir.
-
Who's got the lighter?
I have, sir.
-
What's that?
-
Let's take a look.
-
Oh Lord!
-
Get back! Get back! Quickly!
-
Calm down. Evelyn, isn't it?
-
Let's get you out of here, shall we?
-
Come on.
-
Guard!
-
Guard!
-
The girl's gone!
-
Zone one! You two, zone two!
What happened?
-
She's gone. How? She must have
got out through the tunnel.
-
Sir! Over here!
There they are!
-
Get after them!
-
Move it!
-
Main gate!
-
Come here.
-
'Get after them!'
Through here.
-
Wait!
-
Let's go!
-
They're back
on the path! Go! Go! Go!
-
Come on.
-
This way.
-
Get in!
-
Off to the left, there's a car!
-
Leave it! Hold your fire!
-
How did this happen?
-
With all due respect, sir,
-
my expertise lies in interrogation,
not security.
-
In any case, it wasn't our decision
to bring the girl here.
-
If she talks, we've had it.
Whole operation up in smoke.
-
God I wish I was back in Malaya!
-
Bye, Mum!
-
'We live in a bombed-out
house in West Peckham.
-
My mum, my sister and her family.
-
Anyway, it was Sunday morning
and I was on my way to church.
-
They was waiting for me.
-
"Are you Evelyn Green?" they asked.
-
And then bundled me into a car.'
-
Thank you.
-
They looked at my identity card,
-
then drove me to this big house in
the country, surrounded by soldiers.
-
They wouldn't answer
any of my questions.
-
They just took me to the basement,
put me in a cell.
-
I knew there had been some
kind of mix up. So did they.
-
I could hear people arguing
about me.
-
But then the music started,
and it didn't stop.
-
Even so, I could still hear men
screaming.
-
See any of them?
-
'There was a crack
in my wooden door.
-
I made it bigger with a nail file,
so I could see out.
-
I wanted to know what was going on,
what kind of place it was.'
-
There were guards in uniform
coming and going.
-
And then later that night...
-
'I heard this man, shouting,
-
in Russian I think it was.
He was one or two cells down.
-
And then I saw a man in a bloody
shirt, stagger past my door.'
-
And he was followed a moment later
-
by another man in uniform,
but he wasn't a guard.
-
Did you recognise him?
-
No. I didn't really see their faces.
-
It appears to be
a Psychological Interrogation Unit.
-
Officially they don't exist.
-
During the war they concealed
prisoners from the Red Cross
-
and questioned them using whatever
methods they deemed appropriate.
-
They'll be deprived of sleep,
starved of food,
-
mock executions, that type of thing.
-
The girl must be a mistake.
-
I can't see any other reason
why she'd be taken.
-
Thank you.
-
I've put a hot water bottle in here
for you. Thank you.
-
So do you think it will be safer
if I stay here for a few days?
-
Yes, I do.
-
Thank you.
Goodnight.
-
We need to let Mrs Green know she's
here first thing in the morning.
-
No one else.
-
If... When you get elected, you
need to do something about this.
-
I don't know if I can.
-
Not if it's anything to do
with The Official Secrets Act.
-
There is one thing we need to do
before I'm elected.
-
Yes?
-
Vote. It's polling day tomorrow.
-
Oh, Adam, I'm so sorry.
I completely forgot!
-
Thank you very much.
-
Morning, Mr Foyle.
Morning.
-
That file you requested,
Colonel Galt? Oh yes?
-
I'm afraid it's restricted.
Section Chiefs only.
-
Arthur.
-
What is it you don't want me to find?
-
I beg your pardon?
-
Restricted files,
for Section Chiefs only,
-
it's beginning to feel like
an investigation being obstructed.
-
I've got better things to do
than that.
-
What are you hiding?
-
Do I need to remind you,
how much you can trust me?
-
Between you and me,
I'm in a bit of hole.
-
We were tipped off that there
was a mole in the Foreign Office,
-
passing information onto the Soviets
and I was asked to bring her in.
-
I was given her name, Evelyn Green,
and her address on a pink chit,
-
so I picked her up, passed her on.
-
Only to discover,
that we'd got the wrong woman.
-
A completely innocent Evelyn Green.
-
I don't understand it, I was given
her name and address on a pink chit.
-
So it was only partly my fault.
-
Meyerson,
he's going to want a scapegoat
-
and it looks like
it's going to be me!
-
When did you find out
you'd made the mistake?
-
When the real Evelyn Green
turned up in East Berlin.
-
Where did the pink chit come from?
-
Barton Hall.
-
Between you and me,
I think it'll help
-
if you let me take a look
at these files.
-
Alright.
-
Thank you.
-
These only go back to '38.
-
How far do you want to go back?
-
Well, how about the beginning?
-
Mrs Green, hello!
-
Mum!
-
Oh!
-
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you.
-
Wish me luck.
Good luck. Got your speech?
-
Yep.
-
Remember not to answer the door
to anyone apart from us.
-
Glenvil.
Indeed.
-
Foyle.
-
We've had a security breach.
-
I'm afraid you'll have to leave
immediately.
-
Can't wait. One or two questions
before I do - You're not listening.
-
Well, technically, neither are you.
-
This isn't a Y station -
it's an interrogation centre,
-
in which at least one person has been
murdered. So one or two questions.
-
We're developing new
interrogation techniques.
-
The intelligence that we extract
is passed directly to MI5.
-
You see, violence can often result
in the wrong answers -
-
a good interrogator seeks the truth,
without resorting to brutality.
-
A technique not applied
in Palenko's case, it would seem?
-
Palenko was rounded up in a general
sweep. He had no identification.
-
We suspected him of being a Russian
spy and went to work on him.
-
He cracked and tried
to take his own life.
-
The man Ross saw following Palenko
to the hospital the night he died,
-
would that have been you
by any chance?
-
You don't have the authority
to question me
-
or anyone else at Barton Hall.
-
Sir?
Escort Mr Foyle out.
-
It is your duty to leave here
and never speak of this again.
-
Well, our ideas of duty
obviously differ quite considerably.
-
Good afternoon, sir.
-
Excuse me, would you mind telling me
who you voted for? No.
-
How's it... Good afternoon.
-
How's it looking?
-
It's close. But er... this helped.
-
Please tell me this wasn't you?
-
Excuse me, do you mind telling me
who you voted for please?
-
Mrs Ross...
-
I'm not at all sure how much comfort
this will be to you,
-
but your husband didn't kill himself.
-
He didn't?
No.
-
When he returned home
after the car accident,
-
you mentioned he was eager to check
some blood samples. Am I right?
-
Yes. Were these samples taken
at the accident?
-
I believe so, yes.
Where might we find these?
-
Please.
-
This must have been what
he was last working on.
-
Yes, this is the blood sample,
and this must be the result.
-
What does that say?
-
Someone suffering from
tick-borne Encephalitis.
-
Fatal without treatment.
I saw a lot of it in the camp.
-
Sir?
Yes.
-
Gait's file is on your desk.
Thank you.
-
I'd like James McDonald's as well.
Would that be a problem? Not at all.
-
Good, thank you.
-
Absolutely nothing to do with us!
-
Too much of a coincidence
to ignore.
-
The man's given carte blanche
to wander all over the place,
-
and within 48 hours
there's a major security breach!
-
If that's the case, it was done
without the knowledge or
authorisation of this office.
-
What's more, he turned up again
this morning! Nerve of the man!
-
And the wrong girl,
why haven't I been told about that?
-
I've only just heard about her
myself.
-
You're not suggesting that
Foyle broke in? Of course not!
-
Then who?
Unidentified, but you can bet your
boots he's connected to Foyle.
-
Well, how much does Foyle know about
the place? More than he should.
-
And whose fault is that? Well,
I didn't invite the blighter in!
-
Alright, I accept there
may have been mistakes.
-
I take my share of the blame, sir.
-
Sir?
I asked not to be disturbed!
-
Mr Foyle is - I do beg your pardon.
Sorry to interrupt.
-
- Colonel?
- Thank you, Charlotte.
-
Foyle, come in, you do have
some questions to answer.
-
Well, that'll make a change.
-
The break-in at Barton Hall.
How much do you know about it?
-
Oh, only what I heard this morning.
-
A girl's gone missing.
Another one?
-
This is important, man!
-
And we have reason
to believe you know where she is.
-
She's in possession
of confidential information.
-
If it gets out, our entire work
could be fatally undermined!
-
It already has been.
-
Explain yourself.
-
At some point recently,
was McDonald absent from the unit?
-
I said, explain yourself. I'm sick
and tired of your damn questions!
-
Occupational hazard, Colonel.
Would that be correct?
-
Yes, I gave him 48 hours leave after
the Russian was interrogated. Why?
-
And were you both present,
at that interrogation?
-
Yes, McDonald translated.
-
Well, you won't be pleased to learn,
that he's been responsible
-
for undermining your unit
for some considerable time.
-
James McDonald?
-
The Russian even made a dying attempt
to warn you...
-
"Tin Eye".
-
This is McDonald's file.
-
Does no one ever read these things?
-
What's the news? It's neck and neck
according to my own poll.
-
Not much we can do now.
Well, that's good, isn't it?
-
Colonel Galt... Mr Foyle.
-
Do you mind if I don't get up? Not
feeling too dandy at the moment -
-
can't seem to shake this bug off.
-
Well, I'm sorry to have to tell you
Major McDonald,
-
but you're unlikely to feel dandy
ever again.
-
Get an ambulance.
-
I don't understand.
-
I do. You have a condition
called Encephalitis,
-
contracted through your tick-bite.
-
It attacks the central nervous system
and is fatal without treatment.
-
Your infection has gone untreated
-
because the person
who made the diagnosis
-
and the only person in the position
to be able to treat you,
-
is the person you murdered...
-
Dr Ian Ross.
-
You killed him in the belief
that he'd recognised you
at the car accident. He hadn't.
-
What he did recognise
was the condition,
-
as a result of the blood samples
he took
-
and that the condition cannot
be contracted in this country.
-
It is common, however, in parts of
Europe, East Berlin for example,
-
which is where you were infected,
-
while escorting Evelyn Green
into the Russian Zone.
-
You two were at Cambridge together,
weren't you?
-
Well, I have all the time
in the world.
-
We met at the debating society.
-
I was a postgraduate,
she was younger.
-
Highly intelligent... and beautiful.
-
I'd never seen anyone so beautiful.
-
We were kindred spirits.
-
We were both sickened
by the class system.
-
The snobbery, the hypocrisy,
the greed.
-
We've been lovers - and comrades -
ever since.
-
Palenko deserved to die -
he betrayed the cause.
-
Now we're getting somewhere.
Find out who she is.
-
Evelyn Green.
-
Evelyn Green? Where?
-
Foreign Office.
-
Right.
-
I don't trust him.
He'll say anything.
-
He could be a Trojan horse for
all we know. I agree. All the same,
-
we should inform MI5 about
this woman in the Foreign Office.
-
Shouldn't we verify his story before
we accuse someone of being a spy?
-
We have no choice. They need to
pick her up immediately. Do it.
-
Sir?
-
Something the matter?
-
As a matter of fact there is, sir.
-
It's my sister's husband,
there's been a dreadful accident.
-
She's not coping very well.
I was wondering if I...?
-
Palenko's not going anywhere.
How much time do you need?
-
48 hours.
48 hours then.
-
Thank you, sir.
-
I gave MI5 details of another
Evelyn Green at a different address.
-
Then I made a phone call.
-
'Kensington 3487?'
-
Is your bag packed?
-
'Evelyn?'
Yes.
-
Get out now!
Meet me at Paddington Station.
-
Evelyn had an interzone ID card.
-
We'd prepared one
for just such an event.
-
What about Palenko?
-
I was ordered to return
and silence him...
-
'I knew that he couldn't
speak English.'
-
But I had to be sure.
-
'I chased him to the hospital.'
-
'How he ever managed
to get there...'
-
'I heard Ross pronounce him dead.'
-
He's gone.
-
'I thought he might have
seen me, might have been able
to identify me.'
-
All my life, I've believed
that Communism will prevail.
-
One state, one mind, all equal.
-
I've sacrificed everything
for the cause, everything.
-
I won't live to see it.
-
But it will come.
-
Contemptible!
-
'..Conservative - Six thousand,
three hundred and twenty two.
-
Watt, Liberal -
-
five thousand two hundred
and fifty one.
-
Wainwright, Labour. Six thousand
four hundred and forty eight!' Yes!
-
Sam, what are you doing?
This.
-
Sam, I've got to make a speech.
-
So do I.
-
Adam Wainwright. You're going to
be the best member of parliament
Peckham has ever seen.
-
I'm so bloody proud of you.
-
I couldn't have done it without you.
That's just not true.
-
Adam, sorry, speech!
-
Come on.
-
What's happened to the girl?
-
Er, back with her family.
-
Will she talk? She'd sooner forget
the whole thing, I think.
-
Can't say I blame her.
-
The man who got her out,
I take it that was your doing?
-
Yeah, he certainly proved himself
quite useful.
-
Maybe we should encourage him
to apply.
-
I'll see what I can do.
-
Take a seat, Mr Foyle.
-
I can't close Barton Hall,
if that's what you're thinking.
-
It doesn't bother you how
the intelligence that arrives
on your desk is obtained?
-
No, of course it does.
But if you think the Soviets
-
aren't using the same,
or worse methods, you're wrong.
-
Well, I'm aware of what they do,
it's what we do that's the issue.
-
But it's intelligence that has
saved many of our agents' lives.
-
I have to see both sides
of the coin. That's my job.
-
But listen to me.
Pierce is first class.
-
But you have something I need.
-
And I don't mean your inability
to tow the line.
-
It's just that in this rather nasty
little war we seem to be fighting,
-
I'd like to think that
I have you on my side.
-
And it might just be that working
together, we could do some good.
-
We could start with Mrs Ross perhaps?
-
Yes?
