- 00:00:31,665 --> 00:00:33,732
- The last
- decade has seen a renaissance
- 2
- 00:00:33,734 --> 00:00:35,701
- for international terrorism.
- 3
- 00:00:37,738 --> 00:00:40,639
- This has been precipitated,
- at least in part,
- 4
- 00:00:40,641 --> 00:00:44,276
- by a status quo of negotiation
- and concession
- 5
- 00:00:44,278 --> 00:00:47,479
- enabling many recent terrorist
- actions to be successful
- 6
- 00:00:47,481 --> 00:00:49,081
- for their perpetrators.
- 7
- 00:00:49,083 --> 00:00:51,550
- These successes increased
- the various groups'
- 8
- 00:00:51,552 --> 00:00:54,319
- perceived legitimacy.
- 9
- 00:01:00,194 --> 00:01:01,560
- In overseas news,
- 10
- 00:01:01,562 --> 00:01:04,563
- us special forces have
- made a disastrous attempt
- 11
- 00:01:04,565 --> 00:01:08,600
- to free 52 Americans held
- captive in Iran. Casualty--
- 12
- 00:01:15,509 --> 00:01:18,544
- back at home,
- exactly one year ago tomorrow,
- 13
- 00:01:18,546 --> 00:01:21,313
- the British people voted prime
- minister Margaret Thatcher
- 14
- 00:01:21,315 --> 00:01:22,481
- into power.
- 15
- 00:01:22,483 --> 00:01:24,383
- Mrs Thatcher's
- unswerving commitment
- 16
- 00:01:24,385 --> 00:01:26,485
- to economic and social reform
- 17
- 00:01:26,487 --> 00:01:29,721
- has been controversial, and
- she remains a divisive figure
- 18
- 00:01:29,723 --> 00:01:33,192
- in a tenuous position.
- on today's programme--
- 19
- 00:01:33,194 --> 00:01:35,160
- ...that kind of
- resource is not adequate.
- 20
- 00:01:35,162 --> 00:01:38,230
- Though we have to leave it.
- mr timms, thank you.
- 21
- 00:01:38,232 --> 00:01:39,598
- With the bank holiday
- nearly here,
- 22
- 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,567
- many londoners will be
- planning to go away.
- 23
- 00:01:41,569 --> 00:01:42,835
- But for those left in the city,
- 24
- 00:01:42,837 --> 00:01:46,138
- there will be plenty
- of diversions.
- 25
- 00:02:40,261 --> 00:02:42,494
- Get down!
- get down, or you die!
- 26
- 00:02:51,472 --> 00:02:53,705
- Everyone out!
- 27
- 00:02:53,707 --> 00:02:55,474
- Out! Hurry up!
- 28
- 00:02:55,476 --> 00:02:56,808
- Get down!
- 29
- 00:03:03,784 --> 00:03:03,782
- Sam Harris, BBC.
- 30
- 00:03:03,784 --> 00:03:08,620
- Everyone, on your knees!
- Down! Down! Down!
- 31
- 00:03:08,622 --> 00:03:10,789
- Do as he says.
- 32
- 00:03:10,791 --> 00:03:12,691
- Ok. Good.
- 33
- 00:03:12,693 --> 00:03:17,262
- Hassan.
- 34
- 00:03:21,402 --> 00:03:22,935
- Don't be stupid,
- you'll get us all killed.
- 35
- 00:03:24,605 --> 00:03:26,238
- Don't move! Don't talk!
- 36
- 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,475
- You -- you want to die?
- 37
- 00:03:30,477 --> 00:03:33,245
- I said, 'you want to die?'
- 38
- 00:03:55,401 --> 00:03:58,503
- it's definitely
- the iranian embassy.
- 39
- 00:03:58,505 --> 00:04:01,707
- Weren't Chris and sim
- getting visas for Iran today?
- 40
- 00:04:01,709 --> 00:04:03,342
- Oh, bloody hell.
- 41
- 00:04:08,982 --> 00:04:08,981
- No closer.
- 42
- 00:04:08,983 --> 00:04:11,984
- BBC. I have colleagues in there.
- 43
- 00:04:11,986 --> 00:04:13,452
- Yeah, back, I said.
- 44
- 00:04:16,357 --> 00:04:17,656
- What's going on?
- 45
- 00:04:17,658 --> 00:04:18,857
- Hey, you can't do that.
- 46
- 00:04:18,859 --> 00:04:21,593
- Free country last time
- I checked, pal.
- 47
- 00:04:25,266 --> 00:04:26,898
- No, no, no, no, no! Get back!
- 48
- 00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:28,367
- All of you, get back!
- 49
- 00:04:28,369 --> 00:04:29,801
- Wait, wait, wait, wait!
- 50
- 00:04:29,803 --> 00:04:30,902
- I'll be back.
- 51
- 00:04:30,904 --> 00:04:32,504
- Bring
- negotiator now!
- 52
- 00:04:32,506 --> 00:04:37,743
- Shit.
- I want a negotiator here now!
- 53
- 00:04:43,017 --> 00:04:45,851
- Tony, you're not
- going to believe this.
- 54
- 00:04:49,290 --> 00:04:51,423
- Clear! Go! Go! Go!
- 55
- 00:04:58,631 --> 00:05:00,365
- That was shit.
- 56
- 00:05:04,438 --> 00:05:06,772
- How's that, then, Roy?
- 57
- 00:05:06,774 --> 00:05:08,707
- You never checked
- behind the door.
- 58
- 00:05:08,709 --> 00:05:10,776
- Oh, fuck.
- you're dead. So is he.
- 59
- 00:05:18,751 --> 00:05:21,553
- All right, boys! Get
- yourselves outside now!
- 60
- 00:05:21,555 --> 00:05:25,424
- Outside, boys!
- someone's pushed
- the wrong button.
- 61
- 00:05:25,426 --> 00:05:28,960
- 30 seconds! Let's go! Now!
- 62
- 00:05:28,962 --> 00:05:31,630
- Now, boys!
- 63
- 00:05:36,336 --> 00:05:39,538
- John!
- 64
- 00:05:39,540 --> 00:05:41,573
- What's the deal, mate? Don't
- tell me it's a fucking exercise.
- 65
- 00:05:41,575 --> 00:05:43,542
- Nah, terrorists in London.
- 66
- 00:05:43,544 --> 00:05:46,812
- Multiple hostages.
- 67
- 00:05:46,814 --> 00:05:48,080
- Huh?
- 68
- 00:05:48,082 --> 00:05:50,582
- We're finally fucking on.
- 69
- 00:05:50,584 --> 00:05:51,850
- Right, lads.
- 70
- 00:05:51,852 --> 00:05:53,485
- We're off to London to
- meet the fucking queen!
- 71
- 00:05:53,487 --> 00:05:56,088
- Do some shopping.
- 72
- 00:06:51,177 --> 00:06:54,579
- They say they are the
- Democratic revolutionary front
- 73
- 00:06:54,581 --> 00:06:57,516
- for the liberation
- of arabistan.
- 74
- 00:07:04,957 --> 00:07:11,430
- They demand the release of 91
- arabs held in prisons in Iran.
- 75
- 00:07:22,508 --> 00:07:24,776
- What is it?
- 76
- 00:07:24,778 --> 00:07:26,578
- Unless these demands are met,
- 77
- 00:07:26,580 --> 00:07:30,148
- they will kill a hostage
- at noon tomorrow.
- 78
- 00:07:35,555 --> 00:07:36,888
- Perfect timing.
- 79
- 00:07:36,890 --> 00:07:38,790
- You know ds Tucker.
- 80
- 00:07:38,792 --> 00:07:39,991
- Of course.
- 81
- 00:07:39,993 --> 00:07:41,193
- Max.
- 82
- 00:07:41,195 --> 00:07:42,594
- Tom lovett -- you'll
- be supporting him
- 83
- 00:07:42,596 --> 00:07:42,594
- on the day shift.
- 84
- 00:07:42,596 --> 00:07:45,831
- We were both on the
- bramshill negotiators course.
- 85
- 00:07:45,833 --> 00:07:47,132
- I remember.
- 86
- 00:07:47,134 --> 00:07:49,034
- Good. Now, time to put
- theory into practice.
- 87
- 00:07:49,036 --> 00:07:51,203
- We know they have
- one of ours --
- 88
- 00:07:51,205 --> 00:07:54,739
- a PC Trevor lock of
- the diplomatic squad.
- 89
- 00:07:54,741 --> 00:07:58,210
- Yeah. Armed -- Smith & Wesson
- .38 revolver.
- 90
- 00:07:58,212 --> 00:08:01,112
- Don't know if he's used
- it, still got it or what.
- 91
- 00:08:01,114 --> 00:08:01,112
- If he's still got it,
- 92
- 00:08:01,114 --> 00:08:03,815
- they won't expect an
- English copper to be armed.
- 93
- 00:08:03,817 --> 00:08:06,485
- Yes. Could be a good
- or a bad thing.
- 94
- 00:08:06,487 --> 00:08:08,987
- Gotta
- keep them talking.
- 95
- 00:08:08,989 --> 00:08:10,956
- Standard army field phone.
- 96
- 00:08:10,958 --> 00:08:13,225
- No listening devices,
- so nothing to find.
- 97
- 00:08:13,227 --> 00:08:15,927
- But we hang up here, it's off.
- 98
- 00:08:15,929 --> 00:08:18,697
- They hang up, it stays open.
- Never switches off.
- 99
- 00:08:18,699 --> 00:08:21,066
- Which means that, well, we
- can hear anything they say
- 100
- 00:08:21,068 --> 00:08:22,868
- within range.
- 101
- 00:08:22,870 --> 00:08:24,870
- That's very clever.
- yeah.
- 102
- 00:08:24,872 --> 00:08:27,606
- Well, let's get on
- with it, shall we?
- 103
- 00:08:27,608 --> 00:08:29,007
- Police are settling in tonight
- 104
- 00:08:29,009 --> 00:08:31,042
- for a long wait around
- the embassy in Kensington.
- 105
- 00:08:31,044 --> 00:08:34,279
- The embassy's in princes gate,
- just off Kensington road,
- 106
- 00:08:34,281 --> 00:08:35,747
- and the area almost
- from the Albert hall
- 107
- 00:08:35,749 --> 00:08:38,783
- to ennismore gardens
- has been sealed off.
- 108
- 00:08:38,785 --> 00:08:40,986
- Dozens of people from
- nearby houses and offices
- 109
- 00:08:40,988 --> 00:08:44,222
- in this most fashionable part
- of London have been evacuated.
- 110
- 00:08:44,224 --> 00:08:47,192
- I live right through London
- throughout the war,
- 111
- 00:08:47,194 --> 00:08:50,161
- so bombing was something
- that I was brought up with.
- 112
- 00:08:50,163 --> 00:08:52,564
- Metropolitan police are
- by now all too experienced
- 113
- 00:08:52,566 --> 00:08:54,866
- in this kind of incident,
- and well-oiled plans
- 114
- 00:08:54,868 --> 00:08:56,835
- have sprung into action.
- 115
- 00:08:56,837 --> 00:08:59,137
- In scenes more
- reminiscent of north Ireland
- 116
- 00:08:59,139 --> 00:09:03,174
- or America, guns appear on
- the streets of the capital.
- 117
- 00:09:03,176 --> 00:09:04,910
- The question here, too, is
- 118
- 00:09:04,912 --> 00:09:09,247
- do authorities face terrorism
- with negotiation or force
- 119
- 00:09:09,249 --> 00:09:11,816
- on British soil?
- 120
- 00:09:11,818 --> 00:09:16,121
- This is Kate adie,
- live from princes gate.
- 121
- 00:09:16,123 --> 00:09:17,822
- The rest of today's
- news a little later,
- 122
- 00:09:17,824 --> 00:09:19,858
- and of course we'll be
- going back to the embassy
- 123
- 00:09:19,860 --> 00:09:23,094
- if there are any developments.
- 124
- 00:09:38,210 --> 00:09:39,878
- I'm starving.
- 125
- 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,782
- Here. You'll need to be.
- 126
- 00:09:43,784 --> 00:09:46,117
- Guess what I just heard?
- what?
- 127
- 00:09:46,119 --> 00:09:49,154
- The terrorists called
- BBC television centre.
- 128
- 00:09:49,156 --> 00:09:50,589
- What are they demanding?
- 129
- 00:09:50,591 --> 00:09:52,290
- I don't know.
- 130
- 00:09:52,292 --> 00:09:54,826
- I guess the real question
- is what will mrs t
- 131
- 00:09:54,828 --> 00:09:56,828
- and the government
- concede to them?
- 132
- 00:09:56,830 --> 00:10:00,865
- I don't know. Not these
- bloody sandwiches, I hope.
- 133
- 00:10:00,867 --> 00:10:06,371
- You've had worse.
- when?
- 134
- 00:10:09,008 --> 00:10:11,676
- No, don't get up,
- gentlemen, please.
- 135
- 00:10:11,678 --> 00:10:13,011
- I think you know everyone.
- 136
- 00:10:13,013 --> 00:10:14,946
- Mi5, MI6.
- 137
- 00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:15,981
- Metropolitan police.
- 138
- 00:10:15,983 --> 00:10:23,054
- Colonel rose?
- special air service.
- 139
- 00:10:23,056 --> 00:10:25,056
- Well, I have spoken
- to the prime minister,
- 140
- 00:10:25,058 --> 00:10:26,891
- and she is firm --
- 141
- 00:10:26,893 --> 00:10:30,395
- the rule of British law
- must be applied here.
- 142
- 00:10:30,397 --> 00:10:34,132
- On that she will not be swayed.
- 143
- 00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:39,838
- So, what is the, uh,
- first order of business?
- 144
- 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,073
- Uh, to determine the
- government's bottom line
- 145
- 00:10:42,075 --> 00:10:42,073
- on negotiations.
- 146
- 00:10:42,075 --> 00:10:46,711
- And under what conditions
- the sas would take over
- 147
- 00:10:46,713 --> 00:10:48,246
- from the police.
- 148
- 00:10:48,248 --> 00:10:51,650
- We can't give them what they
- want, I'll tell you that much.
- 149
- 00:10:51,652 --> 00:10:53,218
- The iranian government
- are point-blank
- 150
- 00:10:53,220 --> 00:10:59,224
- refusing to play ball. They're
- not releasing anyone from jail.
- 151
- 00:11:02,828 --> 00:11:07,165
- Well, are your men ready to
- go in, colonel, if need be?
- 152
- 00:11:07,167 --> 00:11:09,367
- An immediate assault plan
- has been drawn up
- 153
- 00:11:09,369 --> 00:11:12,170
- based on what little
- intelligence we have.
- 154
- 00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:16,207
- If it comes to it,
- it won't be pretty.
- 155
- 00:11:27,453 --> 00:11:29,154
- Fucking
- press are everywhere.
- 156
- 00:11:29,156 --> 00:11:36,394
- Do not let them make you.
- 157
- 00:11:37,964 --> 00:11:39,364
- All right.
- 158
- 00:11:39,366 --> 00:11:43,168
- Just remember, lads,
- we're cleaners.
- 159
- 00:11:43,170 --> 00:11:48,139
- Aye. Cleaners armed
- to the fucking teeth.
- 160
- 00:12:45,297 --> 00:12:49,134
- Now, this is more
- like it, lads.
- 161
- 00:12:54,173 --> 00:12:55,340
- ...no sooner
- did the iranians burst
- 162
- 00:12:55,342 --> 00:12:57,142
- into the iranian embassy,
- 163
- 00:12:57,144 --> 00:12:59,511
- police interpreter made
- the first contact with them
- 164
- 00:12:59,513 --> 00:12:59,511
- and began the delicate task of
- 165
- 00:12:59,513 --> 00:13:02,480
- trying to get the
- hostages released
- 166
- 00:13:02,482 --> 00:13:05,416
- and find out what precisely
- the raiders wanted.
- 167
- 00:13:05,418 --> 00:13:08,486
- They are demanding the release
- of 91 arabs held in prison
- 168
- 00:13:08,488 --> 00:13:10,155
- in south Iran.
- 169
- 00:13:10,157 --> 00:13:12,924
- If the demands are not met,
- they will blow up the hostages
- 170
- 00:13:12,926 --> 00:13:15,326
- and themselves.
- 171
- 00:13:15,328 --> 00:13:16,928
- Police are keeping
- the foreign office
- 172
- 00:13:16,930 --> 00:13:20,298
- informed of developments,
- but they are in full charge.
- 173
- 00:13:20,300 --> 00:13:23,468
- Most of the negotiations have
- been conducted with one man.
- 174
- 00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:27,205
- The police are operating with
- their customary caution.
- 175
- 00:13:27,207 --> 00:13:29,407
- Fewest possible details
- of the police operation
- 176
- 00:13:29,409 --> 00:13:30,942
- have been disclosed.
- 177
- 00:13:30,944 --> 00:13:32,377
- In a tense
- reference to the siege,
- 178
- 00:13:32,379 --> 00:13:34,479
- in the commons this afternoon,
- the home secretary said,
- 179
- 00:13:34,481 --> 00:13:37,148
- 'we are in the middle of
- delicate operations.'
- 180
- 00:13:37,150 --> 00:13:38,383
- and of
- course we assume
- 181
- 00:13:38,385 --> 00:13:40,185
- there is a significantly
- greater number
- 182
- 00:13:40,187 --> 00:13:44,122
- of iranian hostages,
- mostly staff of the embassy.
- 183
- 00:13:44,124 --> 00:13:48,159
- He reiterated that police aid
- the release of the hostages
- 184
- 00:13:48,161 --> 00:13:50,428
- without bloodshed.
- 185
- 00:13:50,430 --> 00:13:55,500
- Iranian government's accused
- western governments -- it's
- the west's fault, as usual.
- 186
- 00:13:55,502 --> 00:14:00,004
- Have you seen this?
- dear old mail. Never fails.
- 187
- 00:14:00,006 --> 00:14:02,907
- This, apparently, is our fault.
- 188
- 00:14:02,909 --> 00:14:04,943
- Watch out! BBC are here,
- 189
- 00:14:04,945 --> 00:14:06,578
- inflaming the
- situation as usual.
- 190
- 00:14:06,580 --> 00:14:08,079
- Piss off, Jimmy.
- 191
- 00:14:08,081 --> 00:14:10,048
- Yeah, piss off, Jimmy.
- 192
- 00:14:10,050 --> 00:14:12,150
- Ok.
- 193
- 00:14:12,152 --> 00:14:14,485
- Let's get on with it.
- 194
- 00:14:14,487 --> 00:14:16,988
- Nice cape.
- 195
- 00:14:16,990 --> 00:14:19,290
- Thank you.
- 196
- 00:14:22,062 --> 00:14:27,498
- Hey. Tom didn't go
- home last night.
- 197
- 00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:27,498
- You're joking.
- 198
- 00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:30,335
- No. Wish I was. Stayed here
- with the night shift.
- 199
- 00:14:30,337 --> 00:14:32,237
- He's wound tighter
- than a horse's arse.
- 200
- 00:14:32,239 --> 00:14:34,372
- Seen this? A hostage
- in the embassy
- 201
- 00:14:34,374 --> 00:14:37,942
- called the BBC's London office.
- it was leaked from there.
- 202
- 00:14:37,944 --> 00:14:39,177
- I thought they cut everything.
- 203
- 00:14:39,179 --> 00:14:40,979
- Apparently there's a
- phone still operating.
- 204
- 00:14:40,981 --> 00:14:45,450
- We can't negotiate
- in the bloody press.
- 205
- 00:14:46,518 --> 00:14:48,419
- One hour till deadline, boys.
- 206
- 00:14:48,421 --> 00:14:50,421
- Maggie's made it clear
- anybody gets killed,
- 207
- 00:14:50,423 --> 00:14:53,458
- she's sending us in.
- 208
- 00:14:53,460 --> 00:14:54,959
- Is there anything
- else we should know?
- 209
- 00:14:54,961 --> 00:14:58,429
- No. It's a black hole.
- 210
- 00:14:58,431 --> 00:15:00,298
- So it's in through the front
- door and hope the whole place
- 211
- 00:15:00,300 --> 00:15:02,100
- doesn't go 'bang', then.
- 212
- 00:15:06,538 --> 00:15:08,973
- Right.
- 213
- 00:15:25,925 --> 00:15:29,127
- You all right, mate?
- yeah.
- 214
- 00:15:33,433 --> 00:15:36,467
- Get him talking.
- we need to buy some time.
- 215
- 00:15:36,469 --> 00:15:38,102
- Hello?
- 216
- 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,316
- He demands the release of
- his comrades in arabistan.
- 217
- 00:15:51,318 --> 00:15:54,419
- Your government must
- or they will take action.
- 218
- 00:15:54,421 --> 00:15:56,321
- Tell him our bosses are
- looking at their demands,
- 219
- 00:15:56,323 --> 00:15:58,456
- trying to contact Iran.
- 220
- 00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:09,567
- They have already
- talked to Tehran.
- 221
- 00:16:09,569 --> 00:16:11,536
- Tell them they have no power in
- the situation. They're trapped.
- 222
- 00:16:37,330 --> 00:16:38,262
- Don't they understand?
- 223
- 00:16:38,264 --> 00:16:40,565
- Tom...
- 224
- 00:16:46,338 --> 00:16:49,474
- What did the iranians
- say to them?
- 225
- 00:16:51,243 --> 00:16:54,012
- They welcome all the
- hostages to be martyrs
- 226
- 00:16:54,014 --> 00:16:57,048
- for the great
- islamic state of Iran.
- 227
- 00:17:03,423 --> 00:17:05,690
- This is sunray. Stand to.
- 228
- 00:17:05,692 --> 00:17:08,493
- 15 minutes till deadline.
- stand to.
- 229
- 00:17:08,495 --> 00:17:10,461
- We're on, boys.
- 230
- 00:17:10,463 --> 00:17:12,030
- Let's fucking have it.
- 231
- 00:18:20,666 --> 00:18:22,800
- Max,...
- 232
- 00:18:22,802 --> 00:18:26,437
- The army's next door,
- champing at the bit to get in.
- 233
- 00:18:26,439 --> 00:18:30,475
- I think the boss
- said it's the sas.
- 234
- 00:18:30,477 --> 00:18:34,112
- You serious?
- 235
- 00:18:34,114 --> 00:18:35,746
- That's all we need.
- 236
- 00:18:35,748 --> 00:18:41,352
- Word from upstairs is if
- someone's shot, they go in.
- 237
- 00:18:42,454 --> 00:18:44,856
- We'd better make sure no one is.
- 238
- 00:19:12,585 --> 00:19:14,318
- Hello?
- 239
- 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,722
- Hello?
- hello?
- 240
- 00:19:17,724 --> 00:19:20,925
- Can you speak English to me?
- 241
- 00:19:20,927 --> 00:19:25,429
- Do you speak English?
- 242
- 00:19:25,431 --> 00:19:27,698
- Yes. I speak.
- 243
- 00:19:30,302 --> 00:19:33,404
- My name is detective chief
- inspector Max Vernon.
- 244
- 00:19:33,406 --> 00:19:36,507
- Where is the woman?
- 245
- 00:19:36,509 --> 00:19:39,343
- She's not here.
- 246
- 00:19:39,345 --> 00:19:41,746
- Will you speak directly to me?
- 247
- 00:19:49,855 --> 00:19:52,356
- I want to help you, Salim.
- 248
- 00:19:52,358 --> 00:19:54,692
- You don't help,
- we will kill them.
- 249
- 00:19:54,694 --> 00:19:58,930
- No, no. If you do that, then
- i won't be able to help you.
- 250
- 00:19:58,932 --> 00:19:59,797
- Do you understand?
- 251
- 00:19:59,799 --> 00:20:01,199
- In five minutes,
- 252
- 00:20:01,201 --> 00:20:04,202
- we kill unless you
- follow our demands!
- 253
- 00:20:04,204 --> 00:20:05,736
- Salim,...
- 254
- 00:20:05,738 --> 00:20:09,273
- Listen to me, please, very
- carefully. Will you do that?
- 255
- 00:20:14,446 --> 00:20:18,916
- My government is not on friendly
- terms with your government.
- 256
- 00:20:18,918 --> 00:20:21,219
- Even if they were, we
- can't force the iranians
- 257
- 00:20:21,221 --> 00:20:25,723
- to do anything they
- don't want to do.
- 258
- 00:20:25,725 --> 00:20:27,291
- Please.
- 259
- 00:20:27,293 --> 00:20:30,228
- Understand -- we can't
- release prisoners in Iran.
- 260
- 00:20:30,230 --> 00:20:32,897
- That's simply beyond our power.
- 261
- 00:20:32,899 --> 00:20:36,867
- The iranians have washed
- their hands of us.
- 262
- 00:20:36,869 --> 00:20:41,572
- You and I have
- to solve this now.
- 263
- 00:20:44,376 --> 00:20:47,945
- If you were to release
- a hostage, it could help.
- 264
- 00:20:47,947 --> 00:20:51,749
- You think I don't
- know what you are doing?
- 265
- 00:20:51,751 --> 00:20:54,018
- Hmm?
- 266
- 00:20:56,255 --> 00:20:57,021
- I'm trying to help you.
- 267
- 00:20:57,023 --> 00:20:59,423
- You are preparing to attack!
- 268
- 00:20:59,425 --> 00:21:03,527
- No. Believe me when
- i say this, Salim --
- 269
- 00:21:03,529 --> 00:21:07,665
- I want this to be resolved
- peacefully, without violence.
- 270
- 00:21:07,667 --> 00:21:12,370
- Every day in my land,
- it is violence on my people
- 271
- 00:21:12,372 --> 00:21:16,674
- by the persians.
- 272
- 00:21:16,676 --> 00:21:23,514
- I can't do anything about that.
- I wish I could. But I can't.
- 273
- 00:21:23,516 --> 00:21:30,688
- But right here, right now,
- you and I can stop violence.
- 274
- 00:21:33,525 --> 00:21:37,361
- If you help me.
- 275
- 00:21:37,363 --> 00:21:39,964
- There's still a chance.
- 276
- 00:21:43,736 --> 00:21:47,471
- Christ! What's
- going on in there?
- 277
- 00:21:49,676 --> 00:21:51,542
- Stand by.
- 278
- 00:21:57,482 --> 00:21:58,382
- Salim.
- 279
- 00:22:02,822 --> 00:22:04,088
- Salim.
- 280
- 00:22:17,969 --> 00:22:20,538
- He's been shot.
- 281
- 00:22:24,877 --> 00:22:27,611
- Salim!
- 282
- 00:22:33,619 --> 00:22:33,617
- Where were you shot?
- 283
- 00:22:33,619 --> 00:22:36,854
- What? No. I'm sick.
- I've got gut rot.
- 284
- 00:22:36,856 --> 00:22:38,356
- Look, I need to talk
- to the bloody police.
- 285
- 00:22:38,358 --> 00:22:39,090
- All right. Just lie back.
- 286
- 00:22:39,092 --> 00:22:40,358
- Let go!
- 287
- 00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:41,559
- You mustn't go in there.
- 288
- 00:22:41,561 --> 00:22:43,060
- You've no idea what's
- waiting for you.
- 289
- 00:22:56,075 --> 00:22:58,709
- Yeah.
- 290
- 00:23:03,014 --> 00:23:04,648
- They've released a hostage.
- 291
- 00:23:04,650 --> 00:23:07,385
- Says they're
- armed to the teeth.
- 292
- 00:23:08,687 --> 00:23:11,655
- That man was ill.
- we let him go.
- 293
- 00:23:13,425 --> 00:23:15,059
- Thank you, Salim.
- 294
- 00:23:16,729 --> 00:23:17,895
- Stand down.
- 295
- 00:23:17,897 --> 00:23:21,699
- I say again, 'stand down.'
- 296
- 00:23:28,740 --> 00:23:34,044
- thank you.
- now, if you don't meet
- our demands, they die.
- 297
- 00:23:34,046 --> 00:23:39,583
- We have food. You must be
- hungry. Let us feed you.
- 298
- 00:23:42,053 --> 00:23:45,656
- You bring, mr Max.
- only you.
- 299
- 00:23:51,062 --> 00:23:52,696
- Do we have any food?
- 300
- 00:23:52,698 --> 00:23:54,932
- Whitehall
- is saying back off.
- 301
- 00:23:54,934 --> 00:23:58,135
- You've gotta
- be joking, boss.
- 302
- 00:23:58,137 --> 00:24:00,871
- Fuck.
- 303
- 00:24:00,873 --> 00:24:03,607
- They released a hostage.
- 304
- 00:24:40,612 --> 00:24:41,979
- There
- have been developments
- 305
- 00:24:41,981 --> 00:24:44,715
- with the siege at the
- iranian embassy in London.
- 306
- 00:24:44,717 --> 00:24:48,152
- We now cross to Martin young.
- 307
- 00:24:48,154 --> 00:24:50,988
- The hostages, most
- of whom are iranian,
- 308
- 00:24:50,990 --> 00:24:52,656
- are about to receive
- their first meal--
- 309
- 00:24:52,658 --> 00:24:55,626
- mum, it's dad!
- 310
- 00:24:55,628 --> 00:24:57,495
- Policemen have brought
- food in containers,
- 311
- 00:24:57,497 --> 00:25:00,498
- which have been placed on the
- ground near the front door...
- 312
- 00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:03,868
- To the embassy.
- 313
- 00:25:03,870 --> 00:25:07,171
- A lone policeman now carefully
- opens some of the compartments
- 314
- 00:25:07,173 --> 00:25:11,108
- for the gunmen to
- inspect at a distance.
- 315
- 00:25:11,110 --> 00:25:13,711
- The policeman takes care
- that none of his movements
- 316
- 00:25:13,713 --> 00:25:16,213
- can be interpreted--
- 317
- 00:25:16,215 --> 00:25:18,916
- the containers are
- now placed in a box
- 318
- 00:25:18,918 --> 00:25:20,584
- that is fixed to a pole...
- 319
- 00:25:20,586 --> 00:25:22,853
- Who the fuck is this?
- 320
- 00:25:32,230 --> 00:25:34,031
- He will now wait
- for the container
- 321
- 00:25:34,033 --> 00:25:36,700
- to be removed from the box.
- 322
- 00:25:44,142 --> 00:25:48,913
- The gunmen move cautiously
- as they take the food inside.
- 323
- 00:25:59,324 --> 00:26:02,760
- Mr Max.
- 324
- 00:26:02,762 --> 00:26:06,096
- Yes?
- you tell them we
- will kill a hostage
- 325
- 00:26:06,098 --> 00:26:08,098
- if our demands are not met.
- 326
- 00:26:08,100 --> 00:26:11,702
- You tell your government
- we will kill.
- 327
- 00:26:11,704 --> 00:26:14,305
- We want arab ambassadors now.
- 328
- 00:26:14,307 --> 00:26:17,741
- One of the mad police.
- he's gonna get himself killed.
- 329
- 00:26:17,743 --> 00:26:22,079
- I'll bet he's never seen
- a weapon in his life.
- 330
- 00:26:26,051 --> 00:26:29,153
- Can you give me more time?
- 331
- 00:26:29,155 --> 00:26:31,922
- I want to help you.
- I need more time.
- 332
- 00:26:34,693 --> 00:26:38,929
- And we want two buses --
- to take us to Heathrow.
- 333
- 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:47,605
- All right. I'll ask the bosses.
- 334
- 00:26:47,607 --> 00:26:51,208
- Please understand,
- it won't happen quickly.
- 335
- 00:27:04,656 --> 00:27:07,091
- One more day. That is all.
- 336
- 00:27:08,893 --> 00:27:10,327
- 48 hours.
- no!
- 337
- 00:27:10,329 --> 00:27:12,796
- Salim, please.
- 338
- 00:27:12,798 --> 00:27:16,266
- Everything takes time here.
- It's complicated in London.
- 339
- 00:27:20,339 --> 00:27:23,107
- I want to help you.
- 340
- 00:27:24,275 --> 00:27:26,243
- Please, let me help you.
- 341
- 00:27:30,315 --> 00:27:32,750
- 48 hours.
- 342
- 00:27:37,355 --> 00:27:41,358
- After that, we begin
- shooting them.
- 343
- 00:27:43,361 --> 00:27:44,762
- Fucking police.
- 344
- 00:27:44,764 --> 00:27:45,963
- ...and
- the conversation
- 345
- 00:27:45,965 --> 00:27:48,265
- appears to be at an end.
- 346
- 00:27:48,267 --> 00:27:51,268
- That was Martin young
- from the scene at princes gate,
- 347
- 00:27:51,270 --> 00:27:53,804
- where all but one
- of the hostages...
- 348
- 00:27:53,806 --> 00:27:55,806
- London senior policemen
- seem confident
- 349
- 00:27:55,808 --> 00:27:58,742
- that caution and Patience
- will bring this matter to
- 350
- 00:27:58,744 --> 00:28:03,113
- what they call a
- 'non-violent conclusion'.
- 351
- 00:28:03,115 --> 00:28:04,815
- Well, this 'softly, softly'
- approach
- 352
- 00:28:04,817 --> 00:28:06,917
- is designed to put
- pressure on the gunmen,
- 353
- 00:28:06,919 --> 00:28:09,853
- whom it's assumed are already
- nervous and getting tired.
- 354
- 00:28:09,855 --> 00:28:11,355
- What do you think
- might be in the minds
- 355
- 00:28:11,357 --> 00:28:11,355
- of the terrorists now?
- 356
- 00:28:11,357 --> 00:28:14,291
- I imagine they feel
- quite excited and elated.
- 357
- 00:28:14,293 --> 00:28:18,762
- In a sense, things are going
- their way pretty well.
- 358
- 00:28:18,764 --> 00:28:20,230
- Post-world war ii Soviet
- 359
- 00:28:20,232 --> 00:28:22,266
- anti personnel
- fragmentation grenade,
- 360
- 00:28:22,268 --> 00:28:24,468
- also known as the rgd-5.
- 361
- 00:28:24,470 --> 00:28:26,837
- Very destructive
- in confined spaces.
- 362
- 00:28:26,839 --> 00:28:29,306
- 4 ounces
- of high explosive,
- 363
- 00:28:29,308 --> 00:28:33,177
- 350 steel fragments,
- if you're interested.
- 364
- 00:28:33,179 --> 00:28:36,213
- The x-rays have got
- at least one each.
- 365
- 00:28:36,215 --> 00:28:40,017
- And they claim to have
- a doomsday device.
- 366
- 00:28:40,019 --> 00:28:45,122
- So, 30-plus rooms over six
- floors rigged with explosives.
- 367
- 00:28:45,124 --> 00:28:49,460
- Each terrorist ready to
- pull the pin for arabistan.
- 368
- 00:28:49,462 --> 00:28:51,895
- Aye, it'll be a real
- wild west show, boys.
- 369
- 00:28:51,897 --> 00:28:54,164
- Aye.
- 370
- 00:28:54,166 --> 00:28:56,867
- The new deadline is 48 hours.
- 371
- 00:28:56,869 --> 00:28:58,202
- The head shed's
- drawing up plans
- 372
- 00:28:58,204 --> 00:28:59,737
- that avoids storming
- the embassy.
- 373
- 00:28:59,739 --> 00:29:01,338
- But we need a new
- immediate action plan
- 374
- 00:29:01,340 --> 00:29:06,009
- in case these inmates go
- off their medication sooner.
- 375
- 00:29:06,011 --> 00:29:10,147
- Preferably one where
- everyone doesn't die.
- 376
- 00:31:33,491 --> 00:31:37,594
- We know there are some
- hostages on the second floor.
- 377
- 00:31:37,596 --> 00:31:40,230
- The intel's never going
- to be perfect, ever.
- 378
- 00:31:40,232 --> 00:31:43,200
- The clock will be
- fucking ticking.
- 379
- 00:31:43,202 --> 00:31:46,503
- What about soll ladders?
- here and here?
- 380
- 00:31:46,505 --> 00:31:48,939
- Too exposed.
- 381
- 00:31:48,941 --> 00:31:53,510
- Always fight down, right?
- 382
- 00:31:53,512 --> 00:31:57,047
- Look. Excuse me,
- let's have a minute.
- 383
- 00:31:57,049 --> 00:32:00,584
- Based on the intel
- that we have right now,
- 384
- 00:32:03,588 --> 00:32:06,456
- we make our approach...
- 385
- 00:32:07,558 --> 00:32:09,059
- From the roof.
- 386
- 00:32:09,061 --> 00:32:10,427
- Yeah?
- 387
- 00:32:10,429 --> 00:32:12,462
- We use caving ladders
- down at these top windows,
- 388
- 00:32:12,464 --> 00:32:14,197
- we make entry, we
- dominate the area
- 389
- 00:32:14,199 --> 00:32:14,197
- where the hostages
- are being held,
- 390
- 00:32:14,199 --> 00:32:17,701
- and then we fight our
- way down from there.
- 391
- 00:32:17,703 --> 00:32:20,504
- Click. Stronghold.
- 392
- 00:32:22,507 --> 00:32:25,709
- Fucking Einstein
- over here, huh?
- 393
- 00:32:44,362 --> 00:32:47,464
- There's at
- least 25 of them.
- 394
- 00:32:47,466 --> 00:32:50,167
- Five women, maybe more.
- 395
- 00:32:50,169 --> 00:32:52,569
- All got families,
- all got lives.
- 396
- 00:32:52,571 --> 00:32:55,405
- It's a
- bloody nightmare.
- 397
- 00:32:58,009 --> 00:33:00,544
- And Trevor Locke.
- 398
- 00:33:09,187 --> 00:33:12,522
- Yes?
- You tell your
- government one more day.
- 399
- 00:33:12,524 --> 00:33:16,360
- We will kill a hostage
- unless our demands are met.
- 400
- 00:33:16,362 --> 00:33:22,466
- We will kill until you bring an
- ambassador here with the bus.
- 401
- 00:33:46,057 --> 00:33:48,392
- Hector's got a new plan.
- 402
- 00:33:48,394 --> 00:33:50,160
- We're gonna give them a bus,
- 403
- 00:33:50,162 --> 00:33:53,130
- gonna let them take the
- hostages to Heathrow,
- 404
- 00:33:53,132 --> 00:33:56,299
- then we're gonna take the bus.
- 405
- 00:33:56,301 --> 00:33:58,735
- Piece of fucking cake.
- 406
- 00:34:07,646 --> 00:34:11,248
- Clear! Go! Go!
- go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
- 407
- 00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:19,423
- You're a dead man walking.
- 408
- 00:34:29,267 --> 00:34:32,202
- The army now appear
- to be directly adjacent
- 409
- 00:34:32,204 --> 00:34:34,204
- to the iranian embassy,
- 410
- 00:34:34,206 --> 00:34:37,774
- although officials continue
- to deny their involvement.
- 411
- 00:34:37,776 --> 00:34:39,643
- The police
- haven't actually seen
- 412
- 00:34:39,645 --> 00:34:41,311
- any of the hostages so far.
- 413
- 00:34:41,313 --> 00:34:43,113
- They will say that
- food has been taken in
- 414
- 00:34:43,115 --> 00:34:46,149
- but no personal contact has
- been made between the police
- 415
- 00:34:46,151 --> 00:34:47,417
- and the hostages.
- 416
- 00:34:49,555 --> 00:34:51,621
- For their part,
- the police feel that
- 417
- 00:34:51,623 --> 00:34:54,424
- as long as the government are
- letting their deadlines pass,
- 418
- 00:34:54,426 --> 00:34:55,592
- then there's a strong hope that
- 419
- 00:34:55,594 --> 00:34:58,829
- their suicidal
- fervour will wane.
- 420
- 00:34:58,831 --> 00:35:01,731
- That was shit.
- 421
- 00:35:02,734 --> 00:35:04,301
- Go! Go!
- 422
- 00:35:04,303 --> 00:35:04,301
- There don't seem to be
- any hard and fast rules,
- 423
- 00:35:04,303 --> 00:35:09,139
- but in general, experience
- suggests the longer it goes on,
- 424
- 00:35:09,141 --> 00:35:11,641
- the less likely it is to
- end in tears, so to speak.
- 425
- 00:35:11,643 --> 00:35:12,709
- Nah, too slow.
- 426
- 00:35:12,711 --> 00:35:16,113
- Need to get it
- down to six seconds.
- 427
- 00:35:16,115 --> 00:35:17,747
- We assumed that they
- are going to break down
- 428
- 00:35:17,749 --> 00:35:20,784
- by certain techniques that we
- know work on western people.
- 429
- 00:35:20,786 --> 00:35:22,352
- It's a false assumption.
- 430
- 00:35:22,354 --> 00:35:24,221
- So to sum up, I mean,
- everyone involved there --
- 431
- 00:35:24,223 --> 00:35:26,289
- police psychiatrists
- and psychologists
- 432
- 00:35:26,291 --> 00:35:28,191
- are facing perhaps
- the trickiest situation
- 433
- 00:35:28,193 --> 00:35:30,627
- we've experience so far
- in London, in your view?
- 434
- 00:35:30,629 --> 00:35:34,331
- Uh, that would be fair, yes.
- 435
- 00:35:37,135 --> 00:35:38,902
- Go! Go!
- 436
- 00:35:41,807 --> 00:35:44,241
- Get down! Get down!
- 437
- 00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:46,710
- Clear!
- 438
- 00:35:50,149 --> 00:35:52,149
- Last bullet.
- 439
- 00:35:52,151 --> 00:35:55,252
- Clear!
- 440
- 00:36:05,463 --> 00:36:11,368
- There will be no bus
- assault at the airport.
- 441
- 00:36:11,370 --> 00:36:13,537
- It's ready. And workable.
- 442
- 00:36:13,539 --> 00:36:15,505
- It didn't work for
- the Germans at Munich,
- 443
- 00:36:15,507 --> 00:36:20,410
- and this government will
- not copy their failed plans.
- 444
- 00:36:20,412 --> 00:36:24,247
- The special projects team
- are elite soldiers.
- 445
- 00:36:24,249 --> 00:36:26,950
- But they are not superheroes.
- 446
- 00:36:26,952 --> 00:36:29,419
- They have never been
- used on British soil.
- 447
- 00:36:29,421 --> 00:36:31,521
- Certainly never assaulted
- a six-storey building
- 448
- 00:36:31,523 --> 00:36:33,557
- filled with civilians...
- 449
- 00:36:33,559 --> 00:36:37,427
- And terrorists ready to blow
- themselves up if we attack.
- 450
- 00:36:37,429 --> 00:36:40,430
- Are you saying your
- men can't handle it?
- 451
- 00:36:40,432 --> 00:36:46,870
- I back them 100%. They know the
- risks. But be certain you do.
- 452
- 00:36:49,941 --> 00:36:53,210
- Now, I would advise you to
- seriously consider any plan
- 453
- 00:36:53,212 --> 00:36:57,214
- that avoids a
- stronghold assault.
- 454
- 00:36:57,216 --> 00:36:59,916
- On the positive note,
- the arab league have agreed
- 455
- 00:36:59,918 --> 00:37:01,918
- to help with negotiations.
- 456
- 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,988
- Uh, there may be an
- impediment to that.
- 457
- 00:37:04,990 --> 00:37:07,824
- The prime minister believes
- it is vital that this country
- 458
- 00:37:07,826 --> 00:37:10,794
- is not seen as a soft
- target for terrorism,
- 459
- 00:37:10,796 --> 00:37:13,530
- especially in light
- of the troubles.
- 460
- 00:37:13,532 --> 00:37:16,900
- She has instructed me to make
- it plain that the terrorists
- 461
- 00:37:16,902 --> 00:37:19,536
- will be subject to
- the laws of this land.
- 462
- 00:37:19,538 --> 00:37:25,642
- And under no circumstances
- will they leave this country.
- 463
- 00:37:26,877 --> 00:37:29,613
- So it's jail or a box?
- 464
- 00:37:29,615 --> 00:37:31,414
- Well, we're still talking
- to the arab league
- 465
- 00:37:31,416 --> 00:37:35,785
- to see if they will help,
- so it's not a total dead duck.
- 466
- 00:37:35,787 --> 00:37:38,688
- We need to give them
- something tangible;
- 467
- 00:37:38,690 --> 00:37:38,688
- make them feel
- like they've achieved
- 468
- 00:37:38,690 --> 00:37:42,025
- what they set out to do.
- Then maybe they'll give up.
- 469
- 00:37:42,027 --> 00:37:44,261
- Well you'd better think of
- it before noon tomorrow.
- 470
- 00:37:44,263 --> 00:37:46,930
- Because if they do start
- shooting, the sas will go in,
- 471
- 00:37:46,932 --> 00:37:50,500
- and it'll be a
- fucking bloodbath.
- 472
- 00:38:07,318 --> 00:38:08,451
- All right. This is good.
- 473
- 00:38:08,453 --> 00:38:11,688
- Perfect point for
- abseil tie-offs.
- 474
- 00:38:13,557 --> 00:38:15,925
- Watch it.
- 475
- 00:38:41,852 --> 00:38:43,353
- Oh my.
- 476
- 00:38:47,726 --> 00:38:51,561
- Looks like happy families
- down there.
- 477
- 00:38:54,899 --> 00:39:00,670
- And that on the
- green might well be the...
- 478
- 00:39:14,518 --> 00:39:15,719
- You all right, mate?
- 479
- 00:39:15,721 --> 00:39:18,355
- I need a word.
- 480
- 00:39:21,359 --> 00:39:23,426
- Fucking hell.
- 481
- 00:39:23,428 --> 00:39:28,465
- The, uh, the brass won't
- sanction the bus plan.
- 482
- 00:39:28,467 --> 00:39:30,834
- Why?
- politics.
- 483
- 00:39:31,502 --> 00:39:33,870
- Fuck's sake.
- 484
- 00:39:33,872 --> 00:39:37,474
- The colonel's ordered us to
- prepare a stronghold assault.
- 485
- 00:39:37,476 --> 00:39:39,008
- We've waited too long, then.
- 486
- 00:39:39,010 --> 00:39:41,010
- Roy, they're gonna be fucking
- waiting for us to set up--
- 487
- 00:39:41,012 --> 00:39:42,879
- no, no, no, no.
- 488
- 00:39:42,881 --> 00:39:45,982
- We've found, erm, a light well
- on the embassy roof
- 489
- 00:39:45,984 --> 00:39:47,450
- that wasn't on the plans.
- 490
- 00:39:47,452 --> 00:39:50,587
- It leads all the way
- down to a glass panel
- 491
- 00:39:50,589 --> 00:39:53,990
- on the second floor.
- 492
- 00:39:53,992 --> 00:39:55,558
- That's perfect for
- a distraction charge.
- 493
- 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,527
- Exactly.
- 494
- 00:39:57,529 --> 00:39:59,863
- Hector wants me to
- detonate it, right?
- 495
- 00:39:59,865 --> 00:40:01,898
- So I want you to step up
- and take my place
- 496
- 00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:07,871
- as assault team
- leader with tom.
- 497
- 00:40:07,873 --> 00:40:10,940
- Don't you think it'd be
- better to use one of them?
- 498
- 00:40:10,942 --> 00:40:12,809
- One of the older guys? I mean,
- I'm only three years in--
- 499
- 00:40:12,811 --> 00:40:16,413
- I've thought it through.
- 500
- 00:40:16,415 --> 00:40:21,851
- Do you want
- the fucking job or not?
- 501
- 00:40:21,853 --> 00:40:24,487
- Yeah, I want it.
- 502
- 00:40:27,024 --> 00:40:28,792
- Call signs.
- 503
- 00:40:28,794 --> 00:40:34,998
- And rusty, mate, aggression's
- good; Control's the key. Yeah?
- 504
- 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,801
- This is how it will
- go down, mark my words.
- 505
- 00:40:37,803 --> 00:40:41,204
- Mrs Thatcher's gone
- in for a fight.
- 506
- 00:40:41,206 --> 00:40:42,906
- You're dreaming if you think
- we're gonna go in there
- 507
- 00:40:42,908 --> 00:40:45,208
- and clean this up nicely.
- 508
- 00:40:45,210 --> 00:40:47,010
- We have an alternate plan
- 509
- 00:40:47,012 --> 00:40:51,047
- that will guarantee every
- hostage comes out alive.
- 510
- 00:40:58,523 --> 00:41:00,957
- We
- have entry into the embassy
- 511
- 00:41:00,959 --> 00:41:03,493
- through a skylight.
- 512
- 00:41:08,899 --> 00:41:12,001
- An assault squad could enter
- under cover of darkness
- 513
- 00:41:12,003 --> 00:41:14,637
- with silenced weapons.
- 514
- 00:41:25,249 --> 00:41:28,618
- We could neutralise
- the terrorists.
- 515
- 00:42:27,312 --> 00:42:29,979
- You can't be serious.
- 516
- 00:42:29,981 --> 00:42:31,814
- Who do you think
- we are? John Wayne?
- 517
- 00:42:31,816 --> 00:42:34,150
- I can hear the sphincters
- tightening in whitehall
- 518
- 00:42:34,152 --> 00:42:35,718
- as we speak, Mike.
- 519
- 00:42:35,720 --> 00:42:39,188
- And the headlines --
- 'sas assassination squad'?
- 520
- 00:42:39,190 --> 00:42:41,291
- I'm sure. But no
- other plan comes close.
- 521
- 00:42:41,293 --> 00:42:43,993
- I'll take it to
- the prime minister.
- 522
- 00:42:43,995 --> 00:42:46,896
- But I know what
- the answer will be.
- 523
- 00:42:46,898 --> 00:42:50,567
- It's down to the negotiators
- to break the deadlock...
- 524
- 00:42:50,569 --> 00:42:55,004
- Or your men will have
- to storm the embassy.
- 525
- 00:42:56,707 --> 00:42:59,642
- I just wish the army would
- hurry up and storm the place.
- 526
- 00:42:59,644 --> 00:43:02,178
- What?
- 527
- 00:43:02,180 --> 00:43:05,748
- 'If it bleeds, it leads'. It's
- gonna make our careers, Kate.
- 528
- 00:43:05,750 --> 00:43:08,051
- Are we really part of
- the same profession?
- 529
- 00:43:08,053 --> 00:43:10,820
- I don't think we're part
- of the same species.
- 530
- 00:43:10,822 --> 00:43:12,922
- When was the last time
- you printed the truth?
- 531
- 00:43:12,924 --> 00:43:12,922
- You know the old saying --
- 532
- 00:43:12,924 --> 00:43:17,226
- 'you wake me sing, make
- it dance, make it up'.
- 533
- 00:43:17,228 --> 00:43:20,129
- Jimmy, omit emotion,
- report the facts, remember?
- 534
- 00:43:20,131 --> 00:43:22,265
- It's not a football match.
- 535
- 00:43:22,267 --> 00:43:24,233
- That's boring, isn't it?
- look, trust me, all right?
- 536
- 00:43:24,235 --> 00:43:27,337
- I've covered every
- siege since Troy,
- 537
- 00:43:27,339 --> 00:43:29,238
- and the army are
- not going to attack.
- 538
- 00:43:29,240 --> 00:43:30,640
- Oh yeah? How's that, then?
- 539
- 00:43:30,642 --> 00:43:33,343
- Look at it. The place
- is a fortress.
- 540
- 00:43:33,345 --> 00:43:35,845
- Be an absolute slaughter.
- 541
- 00:43:43,822 --> 00:43:45,254
- Hassan! Hassan!
- 542
- 00:43:50,828 --> 00:43:52,261
- Faisal...
- 543
- 00:44:01,673 --> 00:44:05,642
- Get down!
- 544
- 00:44:05,644 --> 00:44:08,011
- Something's got them wound up.
- 545
- 00:44:08,013 --> 00:44:09,045
- Sit up!
- 546
- 00:44:09,047 --> 00:44:12,749
- Can't you see he's not well?
- 547
- 00:44:38,742 --> 00:44:41,344
- Salim.
- 548
- 00:44:41,346 --> 00:44:43,179
- Salim.
- 549
- 00:44:46,184 --> 00:44:48,284
- There is an argument
- between Salim
- 550
- 00:44:48,286 --> 00:44:51,721
- and this other
- one called faisal.
- 551
- 00:44:52,990 --> 00:44:54,991
- Faisal says all
- they do is talk.
- 552
- 00:44:54,993 --> 00:44:57,727
- They need to show
- they mean their threats.
- 553
- 00:44:59,463 --> 00:45:01,731
- They have agreed they
- will kill a hostage
- 554
- 00:45:01,733 --> 00:45:04,734
- unless their demands
- are met today.
- 555
- 00:45:06,737 --> 00:45:09,372
- Max.
- 556
- 00:45:09,374 --> 00:45:11,107
- Can I have a word?
- 557
- 00:45:11,109 --> 00:45:15,445
- The arab league has refused
- to be part of negotiations.
- 558
- 00:45:15,447 --> 00:45:18,748
- So, uh, no ambassadors.
- 559
- 00:45:19,049 --> 00:45:20,450
- Why?
- 560
- 00:45:20,452 --> 00:45:22,919
- The arabs want to give the
- terrorists safe passage
- 561
- 00:45:22,921 --> 00:45:26,322
- out of the uk.
- 562
- 00:45:26,324 --> 00:45:28,925
- And our government refuses?
- 563
- 00:45:33,464 --> 00:45:36,199
- We trained him
- to be a killer.
- 564
- 00:45:36,201 --> 00:45:38,101
- He's detached, professional.
- 565
- 00:45:38,103 --> 00:45:40,303
- Drop of a hat, he'll
- pull the trigger.
- 566
- 00:45:40,305 --> 00:45:41,804
- He's my choice.
- 567
- 00:45:41,806 --> 00:45:44,173
- Isn't he up in court for
- a drunken street fight?
- 568
- 00:45:44,175 --> 00:45:47,176
- Well, he works
- hard, plays harder,
- 569
- 00:45:47,178 --> 00:45:48,745
- I'll give you that, boss.
- 570
- 00:45:48,747 --> 00:45:49,979
- That's not my point.
- 571
- 00:45:49,981 --> 00:45:51,080
- It's about leadership.
- 572
- 00:45:51,082 --> 00:45:54,183
- Boss, this is the sas.
- 573
- 00:45:54,185 --> 00:45:58,054
- We're not philosophers;
- we're not warrior poets.
- 574
- 00:45:58,056 --> 00:45:58,054
- We're the enforcers.
- 575
- 00:45:58,056 --> 00:46:02,358
- Once we let these dogs off the
- leash, we know what they'll do.
- 576
- 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,460
- It won't be pretty.
- 577
- 00:46:04,462 --> 00:46:07,029
- And when it comes time, we need
- someone up front with a heart
- 578
- 00:46:07,031 --> 00:46:12,835
- of a lion and the brains
- of a fucking judge.
- 579
- 00:46:12,837 --> 00:46:14,804
- All right, sergeant.
- 580
- 00:46:14,806 --> 00:46:17,240
- But you'd better make sure
- he doesn't go off grid.
- 581
- 00:46:17,242 --> 00:46:21,077
- Sir.
- 582
- 00:46:24,149 --> 00:46:25,381
- Max Vernon.
- 583
- 00:46:25,383 --> 00:46:27,250
- Where are the arab ambassadors
- we asked for?
- 584
- 00:46:27,252 --> 00:46:30,486
- Why have you not brought
- them to us? And the bus.
- 585
- 00:46:30,488 --> 00:46:31,788
- Salim, there's a problem.
- 586
- 00:46:31,790 --> 00:46:35,458
- We can no longer
- wait for problems!
- 587
- 00:46:35,460 --> 00:46:38,394
- The ambassadors, they...
- 588
- 00:46:38,396 --> 00:46:43,166
- They're coming, but
- it may take some time.
- 589
- 00:46:45,269 --> 00:46:47,870
- Your army is going
- to attack us.
- 590
- 00:46:47,872 --> 00:46:49,071
- Nobody is going to attack you.
- 591
- 00:46:49,073 --> 00:46:53,142
- We can hear them in
- the walls and outside.
- 592
- 00:46:55,979 --> 00:46:57,547
- Stop the noise. Do you hear?
- 593
- 00:46:57,549 --> 00:46:58,948
- Are we doing that?
- 594
- 00:46:58,950 --> 00:47:01,184
- Psst!
- 595
- 00:47:07,057 --> 00:47:09,458
- Consider it done.
- 596
- 00:47:12,462 --> 00:47:15,364
- I want to speak to the BBC.
- 597
- 00:47:15,366 --> 00:47:17,266
- The BBC?
- 598
- 00:47:17,268 --> 00:47:19,068
- That I can do.
- 599
- 00:47:19,070 --> 00:47:21,370
- Um, it may take a
- day or two to organise.
- 600
- 00:47:21,372 --> 00:47:22,572
- No! Now!
- 601
- 00:47:22,574 --> 00:47:25,575
- Salim, you have to
- understand, the--
- 602
- 00:47:25,577 --> 00:47:30,079
- this is a free country. I can't
- order the BBC to do anything.
- 603
- 00:47:30,081 --> 00:47:32,315
- If you would release
- another hostage,
- 604
- 00:47:32,317 --> 00:47:36,586
- it could help, believe me.
- 605
- 00:47:39,523 --> 00:47:42,091
- Salim!
- 606
- 00:47:46,897 --> 00:47:49,899
- Salim.
- 607
- 00:47:49,901 --> 00:47:51,334
- Salim.
- 608
- 00:48:05,016 --> 00:48:08,017
- Come! You will come. You!
- 609
- 00:48:08,919 --> 00:48:10,386
- You!
- 610
- 00:48:10,388 --> 00:48:12,154
- Sit down!
- 611
- 00:48:12,156 --> 00:48:14,323
- Come.
- 612
- 00:48:14,325 --> 00:48:16,659
- Come.
- 613
- 00:48:19,062 --> 00:48:21,597
- One more day. Do
- you hear me, mr Max?
- 614
- 00:48:23,901 --> 00:48:23,900
- Yes.
- 615
- 00:48:28,673 --> 00:48:32,975
- There are others here
- who would not be so kind.
- 616
- 00:48:34,077 --> 00:48:36,679
- Do you know of my
- country, mr Max?
- 617
- 00:48:36,681 --> 00:48:43,085
- My people are tortured and
- oppressed by the persians.
- 618
- 00:48:43,087 --> 00:48:48,357
- Do you understand... what
- is at stake here for us?
- 619
- 00:48:49,359 --> 00:48:52,328
- I'm trying to help you, Salim.
- 620
- 00:48:53,931 --> 00:48:58,301
- Good. Because this
- is your last chance.
- 621
- 00:49:02,373 --> 00:49:06,309
- After four days,
- as more deadlines pass,
- 622
- 00:49:06,311 --> 00:49:10,146
- another hostage was released
- from the iranian embassy today.
- 623
- 00:49:10,148 --> 00:49:14,183
- Tensions are easing as
- hope grows ever stronger
- 624
- 00:49:14,185 --> 00:49:15,985
- for a peaceful solution.
- 625
- 00:49:15,987 --> 00:49:18,321
- Do you think
- there could be a situation
- 626
- 00:49:18,323 --> 00:49:19,555
- like the situation in Tehran,
- 627
- 00:49:19,557 --> 00:49:21,590
- where the hostages
- are held for months?
- 628
- 00:49:21,592 --> 00:49:26,329
- Well, that's all right,
- as far as we're concerned.
- 629
- 00:49:26,331 --> 00:49:28,030
- We all have to agree
- to be gentlemen,
- 630
- 00:49:28,032 --> 00:49:32,134
- but the sword of damocles is
- hanging over everybody's head.
- 631
- 00:49:32,136 --> 00:49:35,304
- The hostages are
- in a terrible state now.
- 632
- 00:49:35,306 --> 00:49:39,508
- But even they do not know what
- the terrorists are saying.
- 633
- 00:49:39,510 --> 00:49:42,545
- What are they saying?
- 634
- 00:49:42,547 --> 00:49:47,416
- They are preparing to
- kill all the hostages
- 635
- 00:49:47,418 --> 00:49:50,987
- if they do not
- get what they want.
- 636
- 00:49:52,557 --> 00:49:55,424
- Right, the boss has approval
- for the deliberate action plan
- 637
- 00:49:55,426 --> 00:49:57,626
- to storm the embassy.
- 638
- 00:49:57,628 --> 00:50:00,997
- When there's proof
- of murder, we're in.
- 639
- 00:50:12,476 --> 00:50:14,510
- Stand by. Stand by.
- 640
- 00:50:14,512 --> 00:50:17,079
- Go! Frame charge.
- 641
- 00:50:20,283 --> 00:50:22,785
- Room clear.
- 642
- 00:50:23,687 --> 00:50:27,089
- Clear.
- go.
- 643
- 00:50:27,091 --> 00:50:29,291
- You two clear that room there.
- 644
- 00:50:29,293 --> 00:50:31,027
- Where's Jerry? Jerry, man,
- watch the stairs.
- 645
- 00:50:31,029 --> 00:50:31,027
- X-rays may escape down.
- There will be shooting,
- 646
- 00:50:31,029 --> 00:50:36,165
- so watch your arse.
- Tak, basement's that way.
- 647
- 00:50:36,167 --> 00:50:41,037
- Mink, you head upstairs.
- Take control, all right?
- 648
- 00:50:41,039 --> 00:50:44,173
- We can evacuate the
- hostages from up there.
- 649
- 00:50:45,375 --> 00:50:48,044
- Clear!
- any questions?
- 650
- 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:55,084
- If we do it 20 times faster,
- we just might save someone.
- 651
- 00:50:55,086 --> 00:50:56,786
- Let's go again.
- 652
- 00:50:56,788 --> 00:50:59,155
- Move it!
- 653
- 00:50:59,157 --> 00:51:00,656
- Frame charge!
- 654
- 00:51:25,749 --> 00:51:27,416
- This is a tricky one, rusty.
- 655
- 00:51:27,418 --> 00:51:31,120
- Maggie owes us a few fucking
- pints, that's for sure.
- 656
- 00:51:31,122 --> 00:51:33,556
- Hey, rusty, tell
- Maggie her gear's shit.
- 657
- 00:51:33,558 --> 00:51:36,725
- Honestly, mate, i
- don't think she cares.
- 658
- 00:51:36,727 --> 00:51:39,395
- No craftsman blames
- his tools, pal.
- 659
- 00:51:39,397 --> 00:51:41,630
- Oh.
- 660
- 00:51:43,333 --> 00:51:44,533
- Who the fuck's this?
- 661
- 00:51:44,535 --> 00:51:47,436
- Caretaker. Knows
- the place inside out.
- 662
- 00:51:52,542 --> 00:51:55,211
- Oh, it's all wrong.
- 663
- 00:51:55,213 --> 00:51:56,278
- What do you mean it's all wrong?
- 664
- 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:57,813
- Here -- it does
- not open this way.
- 665
- 00:51:57,815 --> 00:51:59,281
- What?
- 666
- 00:51:59,283 --> 00:52:03,185
- And this -- the door
- is on the other side.
- 667
- 00:52:03,187 --> 00:52:06,388
- Here, you will end up
- in a cupboard.
- 668
- 00:52:11,728 --> 00:52:11,727
- Thank you.
- 669
- 00:52:11,729 --> 00:52:14,597
- Let's get it changed, mate,
- quick as you can, please. Yeah?
- 670
- 00:52:14,599 --> 00:52:16,866
- Yeah.
- 671
- 00:52:16,868 --> 00:52:19,435
- Let's gear up. Let's go again.
- 672
- 00:52:19,437 --> 00:52:22,171
- We'll rehearse it till we can
- do it in our fucking sleep.
- 673
- 00:52:22,173 --> 00:52:24,840
- We need an ambassador
- there now!
- 674
- 00:52:24,842 --> 00:52:27,209
- The arab league
- refuses point blank
- 675
- 00:52:27,211 --> 00:52:30,880
- until there is the option
- of freedom for the terrorists.
- 676
- 00:52:30,882 --> 00:52:33,682
- Can the prime minister
- be moved on this?
- 677
- 00:52:33,684 --> 00:52:35,184
- I'll ask.
- 678
- 00:52:35,186 --> 00:52:37,720
- The Iraqis are willing to help.
- 679
- 00:52:37,722 --> 00:52:39,922
- I bet they are.
- 680
- 00:52:41,258 --> 00:52:44,426
- Sami Mohammed Ali,
- Iraqi intelligence.
- 681
- 00:52:44,428 --> 00:52:46,729
- Box 500 traced his movements
- to a boarding house
- 682
- 00:52:46,731 --> 00:52:48,597
- in Earl's court.
- 683
- 00:52:56,374 --> 00:52:59,808
- Sami probably smuggled
- the weapons in diplomatic bags.
- 684
- 00:52:59,810 --> 00:53:04,446
- Left for Iraq one day
- prior to the attack.
- 685
- 00:53:04,448 --> 00:53:12,588
- Gentlemen, we
- are plainly on our own.
- 686
- 00:53:50,227 --> 00:53:51,594
- Hello. Salim?
- 687
- 00:53:51,596 --> 00:53:54,797
- Well?
- 688
- 00:53:54,799 --> 00:53:59,635
- Your demands will be
- read out in full tonight
- 689
- 00:53:59,637 --> 00:54:01,837
- at 6 o'clock on the BBC.
- 690
- 00:54:01,839 --> 00:54:04,373
- Do you promise this?
- 691
- 00:54:06,576 --> 00:54:09,478
- I promise you.
- 692
- 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:13,682
- 6 o'clock. If not,
- I will kill a hostage,
- 693
- 00:54:13,684 --> 00:54:16,452
- then one every half hour.
- 694
- 00:54:41,678 --> 00:54:46,315
- Why don't you eat
- something, Trevor?
- 695
- 00:54:46,317 --> 00:54:50,419
- You're not still
- thinking of using it? The gun?
- 696
- 00:54:50,421 --> 00:54:53,522
- I might have to, sim.
- 697
- 00:54:53,524 --> 00:54:56,458
- Can't you feel it?
- 698
- 00:54:56,460 --> 00:54:59,828
- Like animals to the slaughter.
- 699
- 00:54:59,830 --> 00:55:02,865
- All we do is eat and sleep,
- 700
- 00:55:02,867 --> 00:55:06,869
- but we know it's
- bad news in the end.
- 701
- 00:55:42,505 --> 00:55:45,641
- Bravo three in position.
- 702
- 00:55:50,548 --> 00:55:53,515
- Good evening. This is
- the BBC news at 6 o'clock.
- 703
- 00:55:53,517 --> 00:55:54,950
- Police released
- a statement today
- 704
- 00:55:54,952 --> 00:55:57,519
- saying that the terrorists
- in the iranian embassy
- 705
- 00:55:57,521 --> 00:56:00,956
- had requested a plane to
- take them out of the country.
- 706
- 00:56:00,958 --> 00:56:02,691
- As yet there's no word
- from the government
- 707
- 00:56:02,693 --> 00:56:05,561
- as to whether this
- demand will be met.
- 708
- 00:56:05,563 --> 00:56:08,997
- We'll have more on the siege
- later in the programme.
- 709
- 00:56:08,999 --> 00:56:11,433
- But now for today's main news.
- 710
- 00:56:11,435 --> 00:56:15,003
- Alex Higgins has
- been advised...
- 711
- 00:56:15,005 --> 00:56:18,674
- Is that it?
- 712
- 00:56:18,676 --> 00:56:22,945
- They're not reading
- it out. Stand by.
- 713
- 00:56:22,947 --> 00:56:26,014
- They were meant
- to read it in full.
- 714
- 00:56:27,918 --> 00:56:30,152
- Christ, they'll kill them.
- 715
- 00:56:50,707 --> 00:56:53,075
- Hello.
- 716
- 00:56:54,411 --> 00:56:56,812
- Mr Max?
- 717
- 00:57:06,589 --> 00:57:08,957
- Mr Max?
- 718
- 00:57:10,193 --> 00:57:12,694
- Yes, Salim, it's Max.
- 719
- 00:57:15,532 --> 00:57:19,001
- Thank you for what
- you've done, mr Max.
- 720
- 00:57:26,142 --> 00:57:28,143
- We are very happy.
- 721
- 00:57:28,145 --> 00:57:30,946
- Very happy.
- 722
- 00:57:30,948 --> 00:57:33,882
- Well, that's good
- to hear, Salim.
- 723
- 00:57:33,884 --> 00:57:39,955
- They just read it out in full
- on the BBC world service.
- 724
- 00:57:41,124 --> 00:57:43,992
- We will release two hostages.
- 725
- 00:57:43,994 --> 00:57:46,695
- Two hostage...
- 726
- 00:58:03,981 --> 00:58:06,582
- After five long days,
- 727
- 00:58:06,584 --> 00:58:09,485
- a further two hostages
- have been released
- 728
- 00:58:09,487 --> 00:58:11,920
- after the terrorists'
- demands were read out
- 729
- 00:58:11,922 --> 00:58:15,157
- on the BBC world service.
- 730
- 00:58:15,159 --> 00:58:18,193
- The statement of
- the group holding the hostages:
- 731
- 00:58:18,195 --> 00:58:20,729
- 'The reason for us
- to come to britain
- 732
- 00:58:20,731 --> 00:58:24,666
- 'to carry out this operation
- is because of the pressure
- 733
- 00:58:24,668 --> 00:58:27,736
- 'and oppression which
- is being practised
- 734
- 00:58:27,738 --> 00:58:31,673
- 'by the iranian government
- in arabistan
- 735
- 00:58:31,675 --> 00:58:35,811
- 'and to convey our voice
- to the outside world
- 736
- 00:58:35,813 --> 00:58:37,713
- 'through your country.
- 737
- 00:58:37,715 --> 00:58:42,951
- 'Once again, we apologise to
- the people and the government
- 738
- 00:58:42,953 --> 00:58:46,755
- 'for this inconvenience.'
- 739
- 00:58:54,264 --> 00:58:56,999
- the terrorists want
- freedom from repression
- 740
- 00:58:57,001 --> 00:59:01,169
- for the arab-speaking part
- of Iran called arabistan.
- 741
- 00:59:01,171 --> 00:59:04,106
- There is now a growing
- sympathy for this oil-rich
- 742
- 00:59:04,108 --> 00:59:08,076
- arab-speaking state ruled
- by the persian-speaking
- 743
- 00:59:08,078 --> 00:59:13,215
- iranian majority. Syrian news
- reports repeated instances...
- 744
- 00:59:13,217 --> 00:59:17,019
- Looks like we missed
- our chance, boys.
- 745
- 00:59:17,021 --> 00:59:19,688
- What do you reckon?
- 746
- 00:59:21,257 --> 00:59:22,724
- Hmm?
- 747
- 00:59:22,726 --> 00:59:25,661
- What do you reckon?
- 748
- 00:59:28,031 --> 00:59:30,332
- Nothing.
- 749
- 00:59:31,668 --> 00:59:33,669
- Doesn't change a thing.
- 750
- 01:00:13,843 --> 01:00:14,910
- Hmm?
- 751
- 01:00:25,321 --> 01:00:29,091
- Radio Tehran reports that
- an assault is about to be made
- 752
- 01:00:29,093 --> 01:00:32,394
- on the iranian embassy
- at princes gate.
- 753
- 01:00:32,396 --> 01:00:35,397
- While officials deny
- any such action
- 754
- 01:00:35,399 --> 01:00:38,400
- and insist negotiations
- are ongoing,
- 755
- 01:00:38,402 --> 01:00:41,036
- the iranian government
- itself is calling
- 756
- 01:00:41,038 --> 01:00:43,839
- for the use of force.
- 757
- 01:00:43,841 --> 01:00:45,173
- You've got that wrong.
- 758
- 01:00:45,175 --> 01:00:48,176
- Bet you anything you
- like they'll give up now.
- 759
- 01:00:48,178 --> 01:00:50,679
- I hope you're right, Jimmy.
- 760
- 01:00:56,252 --> 01:01:00,689
- You. Come with me. Now.
- 761
- 01:01:10,199 --> 01:01:14,202
- You'll go blind the amount
- you stare at those boards.
- 762
- 01:01:15,438 --> 01:01:19,174
- Just figuring out who
- not to shoot, mate.
- 763
- 01:01:29,118 --> 01:01:31,820
- Mate, this guy --
- 764
- 01:01:32,955 --> 01:01:35,323
- faisal jaseem.
- 765
- 01:01:37,794 --> 01:01:40,862
- Been in the army his whole life.
- 766
- 01:01:45,401 --> 01:01:47,135
- I know this guy. You back
- this guy into a corner,
- 767
- 01:01:47,137 --> 01:01:50,338
- he's going to fight his way out.
- 768
- 01:01:51,941 --> 01:01:54,276
- Nothing to lose.
- 769
- 01:02:00,249 --> 01:02:03,051
- I mean, it could be me, John.
- 770
- 01:02:08,491 --> 01:02:11,093
- Apart from 'well educated'.
- 771
- 01:02:13,463 --> 01:02:17,132
- Make sure you memorise
- all the faces, yeah?
- 772
- 01:02:41,191 --> 01:02:42,290
- Hello?
- 773
- 01:02:42,292 --> 01:02:45,060
- It's constable
- Trevor lock here.
- 774
- 01:02:45,062 --> 01:02:46,895
- Trevor?
- 775
- 01:02:46,897 --> 01:02:48,230
- What the hell is
- going on in there?
- 776
- 01:02:48,232 --> 01:02:51,233
- They've got a hostage
- downstairs, sir.
- 777
- 01:02:51,235 --> 01:02:54,202
- They've got him
- tied up down there.
- 778
- 01:02:54,204 --> 01:02:54,202
- Unless they get what they want,
- 779
- 01:02:54,204 --> 01:02:57,139
- they said they're
- gonna kill him.
- 780
- 01:02:57,141 --> 01:03:01,109
- I really think they're gonna
- do it, sir. I really do.
- 781
- 01:03:06,115 --> 01:03:09,885
- If we do not get what we want,
- we will kill him. Do you hear?
- 782
- 01:03:09,887 --> 01:03:13,121
- I want a bus outside to
- take us to the airport now!
- 783
- 01:03:13,123 --> 01:03:15,190
- Salim, calm down.
- 784
- 01:03:15,192 --> 01:03:18,193
- Not 'calm down'!
- you have had long enough!
- 785
- 01:03:18,195 --> 01:03:20,295
- Where
- are the ambassadors?!
- 786
- 01:03:20,297 --> 01:03:22,063
- I told you, we're
- working on it.
- 787
- 01:03:22,065 --> 01:03:26,868
- No more delay. You
- bring the bus here now!
- 788
- 01:04:54,423 --> 01:04:58,026
- Shots fired
- in the embassy. Get set.
- 789
- 01:05:03,232 --> 01:05:05,433
- Salim?
- 790
- 01:05:41,137 --> 01:05:42,938
- Salim?
- 791
- 01:05:42,940 --> 01:05:44,339
- Yes?
- 792
- 01:05:44,341 --> 01:05:48,610
- Was that one of the hostages?
- 793
- 01:05:51,515 --> 01:05:55,650
- You have 30 minutes to
- meet all of our demands
- 794
- 01:05:55,652 --> 01:05:58,153
- or we will kill more.
- 795
- 01:05:59,622 --> 01:06:03,725
- You can collect the body.
- 796
- 01:06:14,203 --> 01:06:16,705
- You ready?
- yep.
- 797
- 01:06:16,707 --> 01:06:19,107
- I'm thinking that we should
- call the negotiators,
- 798
- 01:06:19,109 --> 01:06:20,642
- get him to keep the leader,
- Salim, on the phone
- 799
- 01:06:20,644 --> 01:06:20,642
- when we assault.
- 800
- 01:06:20,644 --> 01:06:24,245
- We should steal as much time
- for these boys as we can.
- 801
- 01:06:24,247 --> 01:06:25,613
- Aye, I'll tell the boss.
- 802
- 01:06:25,615 --> 01:06:28,049
- And rusty?
- hmm?
- 803
- 01:06:28,051 --> 01:06:32,354
- Check behind the doors, mate.
- 804
- 01:06:59,749 --> 01:07:01,583
- The prime minister
- has authorised
- 805
- 01:07:01,585 --> 01:07:05,620
- the military takeover.
- 806
- 01:07:05,622 --> 01:07:10,025
- Do we think this man was
- killed accidentally?
- 807
- 01:07:10,027 --> 01:07:13,461
- No, we do not.
- 808
- 01:07:16,432 --> 01:07:20,301
- Colonel?
- 809
- 01:07:20,303 --> 01:07:22,437
- I would like the record to
- show you signed over control
- 810
- 01:07:22,439 --> 01:07:25,306
- to the regiment.
- 811
- 01:07:44,660 --> 01:07:47,162
- Maggie's government's
- hanging by their tits,
- 812
- 01:07:47,164 --> 01:07:49,097
- and it's Lance corporal
- rusty firmin
- 813
- 01:07:49,099 --> 01:07:53,368
- who's got a hold of them.
- 814
- 01:07:53,370 --> 01:07:57,138
- Just don't shoot the
- fucking hostages, John.
- 815
- 01:08:00,644 --> 01:08:03,344
- Are we on?
- yeah.
- 816
- 01:08:10,619 --> 01:08:12,854
- I need a drink.
- 817
- 01:08:20,196 --> 01:08:23,631
- The prime minster asks
- that there be no smokescreen
- 818
- 01:08:23,633 --> 01:08:30,271
- to cover or block the assault
- from the television cameras.
- 819
- 01:08:32,708 --> 01:08:35,243
- Colonel rose?
- 820
- 01:08:35,245 --> 01:08:37,479
- She wants the world and
- the British people
- 821
- 01:08:37,481 --> 01:08:42,383
- to see how this government
- deals with terrorism.
- 822
- 01:08:45,654 --> 01:08:47,455
- All stations.
- 823
- 01:08:47,457 --> 01:08:50,758
- This is sunray.
- 824
- 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:55,497
- I have control. I say again,
- I have control.
- 825
- 01:08:55,499 --> 01:08:57,432
- Max.
- 826
- 01:08:57,434 --> 01:09:00,235
- I had a call from whitehall.
- you gave the sas time to plan.
- 827
- 01:09:00,237 --> 01:09:03,138
- They're very grateful.
- 828
- 01:09:03,140 --> 01:09:06,641
- This is a request
- from their colonel.
- 829
- 01:09:06,643 --> 01:09:10,311
- Keep Salim talking
- during the assault.
- 830
- 01:09:10,313 --> 01:09:15,483
- If they haven't got their
- leader, it might help.
- 831
- 01:09:15,485 --> 01:09:18,386
- What are you saying, sir?
- you want me to help kill them?
- 832
- 01:09:18,388 --> 01:09:19,521
- Oh, no.
- 833
- 01:09:19,523 --> 01:09:22,357
- I want you to
- save the hostages.
- 834
- 01:09:24,793 --> 01:09:27,462
- What am I supposed
- to offer them?
- 835
- 01:09:27,464 --> 01:09:30,732
- The world now, for all we care.
- 836
- 01:10:09,271 --> 01:10:11,906
- I've got a nice shot of heads.
- 837
- 01:10:17,580 --> 01:10:20,381
- Let's move.
- 838
- 01:10:49,712 --> 01:10:51,846
- What is it?
- 839
- 01:10:51,848 --> 01:10:53,615
- Salim, it's Max Vernon.
- 840
- 01:10:53,617 --> 01:10:56,684
- What is it, mr Max?
- 841
- 01:10:56,686 --> 01:10:59,754
- Do you have anything for me
- or do we have to kill another
- 842
- 01:10:59,756 --> 01:11:03,024
- and another?
- 843
- 01:11:03,026 --> 01:11:06,294
- I've been authorised to
- discuss buses with you
- 844
- 01:11:06,296 --> 01:11:08,997
- and get you to Heathrow airport.
- 845
- 01:11:08,999 --> 01:11:12,533
- The government has
- accepted your terms.
- 846
- 01:11:12,535 --> 01:11:15,737
- The ambassadors
- are on their way.
- 847
- 01:11:15,739 --> 01:11:16,838
- We are arranging buses now.
- 848
- 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,807
- You are lying.
- 849
- 01:11:27,283 --> 01:11:30,285
- No more lies.
- 850
- 01:11:30,819 --> 01:11:32,787
- No more lies.
- 851
- 01:11:38,294 --> 01:11:41,963
- I'm not lying to you, Salim.
- 852
- 01:11:59,815 --> 01:12:05,320
- One bus. Enough for all of us.
- 853
- 01:12:05,322 --> 01:12:07,955
- One bus. All right.
- 854
- 01:12:11,393 --> 01:12:12,794
- How is it?
- 855
- 01:12:12,796 --> 01:12:14,495
- It's a lot better,
- I'll tell you that much.
- 856
- 01:12:14,497 --> 01:12:18,700
- Look at this as an overview.
- that's great.
- 857
- 01:12:36,919 --> 01:12:39,987
- Distraction charge is in.
- 858
- 01:12:48,031 --> 01:12:50,531
- It must have curtains.
- 859
- 01:12:50,533 --> 01:12:52,767
- Good. Yes. We can do that.
- 860
- 01:12:52,769 --> 01:12:58,740
- And I want you
- to drive, mr Max.
- 861
- 01:12:58,742 --> 01:13:00,775
- Mr Max.
- 862
- 01:13:00,777 --> 01:13:03,778
- Here. Here, mr Max.
- 863
- 01:13:03,780 --> 01:13:10,084
- Here. Here.
- 864
- 01:13:10,086 --> 01:13:13,454
- Hello?
- 865
- 01:13:13,456 --> 01:13:14,822
- Advance to wait.
- 866
- 01:13:14,824 --> 01:13:18,559
- I say again -- all
- teams advance to wait.
- 867
- 01:13:28,003 --> 01:13:30,438
- PC Trevor lock, sir.
- 868
- 01:13:30,440 --> 01:13:32,173
- Trevor, put Salim back
- on immediately, please.
- 869
- 01:13:32,175 --> 01:13:36,711
- Sir, we're all very
- concerned in here, sir.
- 870
- 01:13:36,713 --> 01:13:40,748
- Please assure me there is not
- an assault about to happen.
- 871
- 01:13:44,186 --> 01:13:47,822
- Argh!
- 872
- 01:13:47,824 --> 01:13:50,825
- Shit.
- 873
- 01:13:50,827 --> 01:13:53,561
- Oh shit.
- 874
- 01:13:55,063 --> 01:13:58,533
- Bravo one, rear team
- in position.
- 875
- 01:13:58,535 --> 01:14:04,839
- Trevor, I can assure you 100%
- we are not about to attack.
- 876
- 01:14:04,841 --> 01:14:08,709
- We are genuinely arranging
- for their demands to be met.
- 877
- 01:14:08,711 --> 01:14:12,480
- Frame charge going in.
- 878
- 01:14:12,482 --> 01:14:15,716
- Just can't believe
- after all this,
- 879
- 01:14:15,718 --> 01:14:17,118
- the promises you're making.
- 880
- 01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:20,154
- Trevor, listen carefully to me.
- 881
- 01:14:20,156 --> 01:14:22,824
- I have my instructions
- from the government.
- 882
- 01:14:22,826 --> 01:14:25,493
- Those instructions are
- to keep the hostages alive.
- 883
- 01:14:25,495 --> 01:14:27,862
- Do you understand?
- 884
- 01:14:27,864 --> 01:14:30,965
- Yes, sir.
- good.
- 885
- 01:14:30,967 --> 01:14:34,469
- Now put Salim back on, please.
- 886
- 01:14:39,975 --> 01:14:43,578
- Put him down, boys. We're
- gonna let off the charge.
- 887
- 01:14:47,049 --> 01:14:49,951
- Yes, mr Max?
- 888
- 01:14:49,953 --> 01:14:53,888
- Salim, we need to know
- where you want to fly to.
- 889
- 01:14:53,890 --> 01:14:57,091
- I can make arrangements
- immediately for the jet.
- 890
- 01:14:57,093 --> 01:15:03,598
- It needs to be of a certain
- size, a certain fuel capacity.
- 891
- 01:15:10,939 --> 01:15:15,042
- I heard something suspicious.
- 892
- 01:15:15,044 --> 01:15:16,077
- There's nothing suspicious.
- 893
- 01:15:16,079 --> 01:15:18,880
- There is a-- a
- suspicious sound.
- 894
- 01:15:18,882 --> 01:15:21,516
- There's nothing, Salim.
- Talk to me.
- 895
- 01:15:21,518 --> 01:15:22,850
- No, wait! I will come back.
- 896
- 01:15:22,852 --> 01:15:24,752
- Salim, wait.
- 897
- 01:15:24,754 --> 01:15:26,087
- Go! Go! Go!
- 898
- 01:15:41,570 --> 01:15:45,973
- Keep filming.
- where the hell are you going?
- 899
- 01:15:45,975 --> 01:15:47,675
- Bravo one, where
- is the frame charge
- 900
- 01:15:47,677 --> 01:15:49,911
- on the ground floor?
- 901
- 01:15:49,913 --> 01:15:53,714
- If we blow it, we're
- gonna fucking kill him!
- 902
- 01:15:53,716 --> 01:15:55,950
- Are we live, bill?
- 903
- 01:15:55,952 --> 01:15:58,286
- Cutting in... now!
- 904
- 01:15:58,288 --> 01:16:01,122
- At the iranian embassy
- at princes gate,
- 905
- 01:16:01,124 --> 01:16:05,192
- an explosion has sounded
- from the rear of the building
- 906
- 01:16:05,194 --> 01:16:10,631
- as police and press nearby
- are being told to take cover.
- 907
- 01:16:12,936 --> 01:16:16,904
- Now two black-clad men can
- be seen on the balcony.
- 908
- 01:16:16,906 --> 01:16:19,974
- They are placing an
- object of some kind
- 909
- 01:16:19,976 --> 01:16:22,009
- in front of the embassy window
- 910
- 01:16:22,011 --> 01:16:26,914
- and climbing back over
- the balcony to their side.
- 911
- 01:16:32,655 --> 01:16:34,822
- A second explosion
- has ripped through
- 912
- 01:16:34,824 --> 01:16:36,357
- the front of the embassy.
- 913
- 01:16:40,029 --> 01:16:43,798
- All right! Go on!
- 914
- 01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:46,934
- Fucking cut him down!
- 915
- 01:16:46,936 --> 01:16:48,869
- Bravo one,
- where is the frame charge
- 916
- 01:16:48,871 --> 01:16:49,904
- on the ground floor?
- 917
- 01:16:49,906 --> 01:16:52,873
- We're changing the fucking plan.
- 918
- 01:16:52,875 --> 01:16:52,873
- What was that?
- 919
- 01:16:52,875 --> 01:16:55,276
- If we set off the
- charge, it'll kill him.
- 920
- 01:16:55,278 --> 01:16:57,211
- What the hell is
- going on? Rusty!
- 921
- 01:16:57,213 --> 01:16:58,312
- Forget it, boss.
- 922
- 01:16:58,314 --> 01:17:00,147
- He ain't talking to no one now.
- 923
- 01:17:00,149 --> 01:17:02,783
- Cut the rope!
- 924
- 01:17:02,785 --> 01:17:05,152
- Smash it in!
- 925
- 01:17:17,766 --> 01:17:20,134
- Flash bang!
- 926
- 01:17:24,807 --> 01:17:26,841

- Clear!

- Smoke covers it,
- obscuring everything.
- 931
- 01:17:40,089 --> 01:17:42,323
- Jesus Christ.
- 932
- 01:17:42,325 --> 01:17:52,033
- On your fucking feet,

- 992
- 01:23:28,670 --> 01:23:30,537
- The pin's in!
- 993
- 01:23:30,539 --> 01:23:33,107
- All right!
- 994
- 01:23:33,109 --> 01:23:34,341
- Let's bring them out!
- 995
- 01:23:34,343 --> 01:23:36,110

- 01:23:58,133 --> 01:24:01,502
- That's an X-ray, boys.
- 1000
- 01:24:13,648 --> 01:24:15,449
- The boys all made it.
- 1001
- 01:24:18,287 --> 01:24:19,586
- They all made it, boss.
- 1002
- 01:24:19,588 --> 01:24:24,258
- Only one hostage killed.
- 1003
- 01:24:24,260 --> 01:24:27,094
- It's a miracle.
- 1004
- 01:24:44,079 --> 01:24:49,316
- After six days and
- almost 11 hours exactly,
- 1005
- 01:24:49,318 --> 01:24:53,787
- the siege at number 16
- princes gate is over.
- 1006
- 01:25:51,646 --> 01:25:53,147
- Did you see him come down
- those fucking stairs?
- 1007
- 01:25:53,149 --> 01:25:55,849
- I fucking did, man.
- huh?
- 1008
- 01:25:55,851 --> 01:25:59,286
- He was a cheeky bastard,
- wasn't he?
- 1009
- 01:26:08,730 --> 01:26:11,298
- For the inquiry.
- 1010
- 01:26:29,751 --> 01:26:32,686
- Oh, wait. Wait, wait. One sec.
- 1011
- 01:26:44,199 --> 01:26:46,466
- Hello?
- 1012
- 01:26:47,402 --> 01:26:49,870
- Max?
- 1013
- 01:26:49,872 --> 01:26:52,739
- Is that you, love?
- 1014
- 01:26:54,943 --> 01:26:55,776
- Yeah.
- 1015
- 01:26:57,713 --> 01:27:00,280
- Thank god!
- 1016
- 01:27:00,282 --> 01:27:04,918
- I just saw it now.
- are you hurt?
- 1017
- 01:27:06,788 --> 01:27:09,856
- Max, please.
- 1018
- 01:27:09,858 --> 01:27:12,326
- Will you say something?
- 1019
- 01:27:22,871 --> 01:27:25,939
- I'm all right, love. I'm sorry.
- 1020
- 01:27:27,842 --> 01:27:32,546
- Just didn't want you to worry.
- 1021
- 01:27:32,548 --> 01:27:35,349
- You know, in case you heard
- anything on the news.
- 1022
- 01:27:58,506 --> 01:28:00,907
- I regret
- that it proved necessary
- 1023
- 01:28:00,909 --> 01:28:03,577
- to resort to the use of force.
- 1024
- 01:28:03,579 --> 01:28:09,416
- But there was in the
- end no alternative.
- 1025
- 01:28:09,418 --> 01:28:12,452
- I entirely agree
- with my honourable friend,
- 1026
- 01:28:12,454 --> 01:28:14,321
- and if I might say one word,
- 1027
- 01:28:14,323 --> 01:28:17,758
- it was, I believe,
- a brilliant operation...
- 1028
- 01:28:19,361 --> 01:28:22,029
- ...carried out by
- special air services
- 1029
- 01:28:22,031 --> 01:28:24,564
- with courage and confidence.
- 1030
- 01:28:24,566 --> 01:28:27,701
- And I agree with my honourable
