The following programme contains strong language and violent scenes.
I just found this at the school. I saw David there the other day.
Rachel didn't deserve that, whatever she did.
The government have a care order still active against you.
It stops you from seeing David.
Something happened at Winthorpe. We both know it.
Having consulted with the children, it seems prudent to arrange
their staggered departure from Midwich.
I don't want to leave you.
Your mother is going to miss you so much. She won't.
None of you will.
I will tell you everything when I get home,
I promise. Ten o'clock, I'll be back.
Hello? Hello?
Sam?
Cassie?
Cassie!
Cassie.
OK. Now, Cassie, we're gonna put this on.
I just want you to breathe for me, OK?
That's right. Just breathe. We're not far away, OK?
What did she take? I... What did she take?
I... I don't know. OK. That's fine. That's it.
You're doing great, you're doing really well, you're doing brilliant.
You'll be all right.
Yeah, like a Zebra. Can I get down? Are we OK in here for a second?
Can I get...? Of course you can. You just play in there, OK, darling.
Do you want some breakfast, love?
We need to talk about Dad.
Where were you?
You said ten o'clock.
I was at the school. I got locked in.
You just lie
all the time.
No, Cassie. Mum, just go.
It's always the same thing.
I need you
and you're not there.
Get some rest.
Hey. Hey.
How is she? Er, physically, she's gonna be OK.
They got most of it out of her system but, er...
I'm sorry.
Where's Westcott? He's gone to Winthorpe.
Preparing the children's move.
Paul, can I speak to you alone? Susannah.
I know there's something wrong.
Can you speak to me too? Please.
The Nordosk file, is it still here?
Thanks.
No survivors.
What's going on?
Mr Haynes went to the school last night.
So?
We think you told him to go there.
Hannah, he didn't say anything. Don't lie.
Are you trying to hurt us?
Where's Ellie?
Hannah, please. Please don't do this. Who did the policeman go with?
Ellie! What did he find? Please, that is your sister! Hannah!
Hannah, please, because she could hurt herself. Then, tell me.
Who did he go with, Dad?
Was it Dr Zellaby? Sam!
Yes.
Hiya, darling. It's OK. You're OK, aren't you?
Yeah.
Think back to that day at Winthorpe. What happened?
We were in the testing room.
And you felt sleepy, yes?
Evie looked through the window.
Towards the parade ground? Yes. Towards the soldiers.
And what about Westcott? Did he fall asleep?
Did you see him wake up? I don't know.
Well, think. Bryony, please think.
No, I don't think so.
And what happened when you woke up?
There was a noise.
Like a gunshot?
Yes.
Yeah. I heard that.
Hi, Mum.
What are you doing here? Where's Granny?
She's... She's gone. Why?
Did you hurt yourself?
Yeah.
But I'm... I'm OK now.
You have to contact London and tell them what's happened.
The children have taken over a squadron of soldiers.
Westcott is planning to help them. Why?
Because he is one of them. What are you doing, Dr Zellaby?
Hello, Joe.
Er...
I'm just talking to DCI Haynes about my daughter.
She's been taken unwell. You should come with me.
Mum? Mm?
What did Granny tell you?
Did she tell you what she saw in the school?
No.
She didn't tell me anything, I promise.
You don't touch her, Joe.
It's OK. I'm coming.
OK, I'm coming.
I'm coming.
Paul, wake up.
What did you see at the school? What do you know?
Joe, listen to me.
I'm your friend, I'm not your enemy.
You're lying, Dr Zellaby. No. No. I promise.
I know nothing. I know absolutely nothing.
I haven't finished talking to you, Dr Zellaby.
Don't... Don't do this, Joe.
Don't, Joe.
Joe, Joe.
Nathan?
Nathan, are you OK?
Nathan?
What's going on? What hap...?
Baby?
Hannah?
Evie? Evie?
Evie, Evie, what's wrong? Evie, what's wrong? Evie? I have to go.
No. No. Please, please. Please, Evie, please don't.
Please don't leave me! Please. Please, just wait.
You... You can take me with you.
Come on, soldier.
Curtis!
I'm taking him away.
Please.
You won't make it. Why should I listen to you?
They won't let you leave.
They'll... They'll kill you and they'll kill David.
You brought them here.
No.
You did.
Let... us...
..go.
Ugh!
Ugh! Ugh-ugh!
Ugh! No! No! No! Ugh!
Don't! Ugh! Argh! Don't!
No!
Oh!
Excuse me, have you seen my daughter?
Cassie?
Cassie!
Cassie?
Cassie!
Yeah. Hi, Granny.
Evie, where's Cassie? She's where she wants to be.
Listen to me. Cassie took pills last night. We know.
She needs medical supervision. She's coming with us to Winthorpe.
She wants to leave. Listen to me. You bring her back here right now.
An army bus will travel from Winthorpe
to pick us up tomorrow morning. Cassie will travel with us.
She'll be safe as long as you do as we say.
Don't cause trouble.
He rushed into the house, he said he couldn't stay.
Um, he said someone else would come and pick up his stuff.
He gave me this hug.
It felt like he didn't want to let go, you know.
Then he just left.
His eyes had nothing in them. They were just empty.
Then I found this.
This is Nathan's?
He doesn't want to be one of them, I know he doesn't.
So, why did he go with them?
He's scared. Then, why won't he talk to me?
I'm his mother! I don't care what they say. I'm his mother.
Paul, you have to find him,
bring him back.
Promise me.
I want you to go to my house. Wait for me there.
I'm gonna get him back, OK?
We're one of the parents. Go through.
What's going on?
Where's Hannah? Is she with you? No, she just left the house.
Lily-Grace did the same. I can't find her anywhere. What is going on?
I can't get Sunny on the phone. Olive's gone. I can't find her.
I overheard Bryony talking.
The children have locked themselves in the school.
Let's get up there, all of us. Er, let's just wait, Mary-Ann.
For what? For them to leave? He shot one of 'em, Sam.
They have to know we had nothing to do with this.
Excuse me. What is going on? Is it true? Are they at the school?
We're getting more information as soon as we can.
Why is the army here? Army?
What army? Yeah. They were in our street.
You don't know what's happening, do you?
Oh, my God.
Major Craig Seymour. Good afternoon.
I have authority under the Civil Contingencies Act 2004
to take command of the Ward 300 operation.
I am implementing a full curfew for tonight.
Everyone is to return home immediately and wait in their homes.
Why? Wait for what?
Just do as I say, please.
Let's move these people out of here.
Make sure they get home safely.
Stairs right.
We're looking for DCI Paul Haynes. Is he here? What's going on?
What's going on? Where is DCI Haynes?
You OK? Yeah.
You seen the soldiers? Yeah. They're from Winthorpe.
Blank faces. Nothing going on.
Obeying orders.
We need to stop this, Susannah. I know.
Yeah. I'm going to go in there. I'm going to go into the school.
No. Yeah, I'm gonna find a way. I'm gonna speak to them.
Paul, you can't... you can't go in there
because they'll do exactly to you what they did to Curtis.
Well, what the fuck are we gonna do?
The children must not leave Midwich.
If they reach Winthorpe, they'll take control of another platoon
and then the whole army.
This is a takeover, Paul, and we have to stop them.
How?
The children are taking a military bus tomorrow morning.
All of them will be on board.
Wait, you're saying...?
Yeah.
This is our only chance.
Do you think you can do it?
Where are you going?
They have Cassie. I have to stop her going with them.
I have to try.
Susannah.
Nathan left me this.
How did he write this without them knowing?
He uses pain to block the hive.
He doesn't want to be part of them any more.
Get him out of there, please.
Hello.
Hello, Olive. How are you?
You should be at home.
I... I came to speak to Evie.
I'm alone.
You can't come in. Well, ask Evie to come out then, would you?
We are all Evie.
No, darling.
No, you're not. Not quite.
What is this, Granny? I want to come with you.
I know that Cassie is in there and I want to come too.
You've caused us enough trouble already.
It was never my intention but you lied to me about Mr Westcott.
You never told me he was the only survivor from the first landing.
I know about the Winthorpe platoon.
That you're using them to expand your power
so you can take over here and then...
And then who knows?
So, you'll either have to take me with you or kill me.
It seems you know about me. Yes.
And now I understand why they're so important to you.
40 years is a long time to be alone.
40 years is nothing when you've lost everyone.
My hive died, burnt alive by your bombs.
These children are a superior evolution.
But they are, for now, still children. They need my protection.
And they need mine. I disagree. You are the threat.
No. What threat?
I love them. I've always looked after them.
I... I love them maybe even more than you do.
That's a lie. No. No.
It's not a lie. I love you. I always have.
You're human.
Humans cheat and deceive.
Lily-Grace, come out here!
Front gates. What's happening? Mary-Ann. Mary-Ann. Mary-Ann.
Mum, what are you doing here? Can you just leave me alone?
I can't. I don't want you here.
If you reject me, they won't just let me leave,
they will kill me. No, they won't. Lily-Grace!
I want to see her! Just... Just let me speak to her, please.
Please.
Lily, listen to me. Please. I just wanna say goodbye.
Just one hug. Please.
Let me through.
Go home, Mum.
One hug, that's all I want.
Go home, Mum.
No, you're coming with me.
Mum. I'm taking her with me!
Evie.
Let go!
Oh!
We had no choice.
I know.
I'm on your side.
Evie,
you're better than us.
You don't hurt each other. You're not...
You're not angry or jealous.
I thought that we could learn that from you.
But we'll never change. We're a flawed creature...
..and our time on this earth is over.
So, whatever you're planning,
let me help you.
Please.
Please, Evie.
Trust me.
Let me be your guide.
Take me with you.
What's happening? We're taking you below ground.
Why? You'll be safe there. Safe from what?
What's going on?
Blackout on the town.
Nathan, you have to warn your dad.
Yeah.
You and Mum need to get underground now.
Why underground? The blackout. It's the only place you're safe.
Nathan.
Paul? Get underground. What's going on?
Get underground. Paul?
We need to go.
Where? Where? It's just through there.
What are they doing?
It's a second blackout...
..to make everyone forget they were here.
If you kill people, you attract attention.
But if Midwich forgets,
then no-one will know the children exist.
How do you know that?
Because Evie let it slip. She said...
..no-one will miss them.
Don't, Cass.
Don't, Cassie.
Some part of Evie did love you, you know.
But the hive will do anything to survive.
I've been such a fool.
No.
No, Cassie.
There's nothing foolish about loving your daughter.
What are we gonna do now?
You have to escape.
What about you?
I'm gonna stay here, just for a little while, so they don't panic.
But I know what I'm doing.
So just trust me, OK?
OK. Let's go.
They've taken all of Hannah's photos.
They've taken all her stuff. It's like she was never here.
That's what the blackout's for.
They want us to forget she ever existed.
Where are they going?
Hi.
Hi. Are you OK?
Don't you know me?
Er, no, I don't... I don't think so. Should I?
I haven't been here very long so...
Sorry. I just...
I just thought I lived here once.
Are you all right? Do you need me to call anyone?
No. I'm fine.
Hello.
Hi, Dad.
Excuse me?
It's me.
Zoe?
Zoe, do you know this girl?
Hi, Mum.
I'm not your mum, darling. You must be confused.
Don't you recognise me?
No, I don't. Should I?
My mistake.
Hi, Hannah.
Hannah. I know, I know.
Ugh! Ugh!
Uugghh!
Main truck, please.
The children will travel in the coach.
You and I will travel in the lead vehicle.
Seymour. Looking forward to having you on the team, Miss Cummings.
Miss Cummings.
Let's go.
Mummy.
What have you done?
Don't, Hannah.
Hannah. Hannah, please. Please.
Get ready. We're leaving soon.
My mum...
..she didn't know me.
And your dad? He did.
Listen, Nathan. You have to get out of here. Take Cassie with you.
Please, you have to leave.
You have to get away and get safe. Please.
OK? This is your chance.
Please.
I'll see you on the other side.
Go, go.
Nathan is missing.
Quick.
This way. Come on. Comr on. Come on.
Aarrgghh!
No, no, no. Leave it, leave it, leave it.
We've lost him. We've lost him. We've lost him. We've lost him.
We've lost him. We've lost him.
Well then... Well then, cut him off.
You don't need him. Please.
Evie, let him go.
Look, you took a risk coming here.
A risk that they would become attached. One boy has.
Please! Please let them go. And the girl?
Cassie won't say anything.
You only need one hostage, let it be me.
It's OK. Nathan, you're gonna be all right.
It's all right.
Nathan. Nathan!
OK. You're fine.
I don't feel fine.
It's done.
Let's go.
Clear of the town. Keep the speed steady.
I'm glad you're with us, Granny. I would have missed you.
I would have missed you too.
We have a soldier down. Uniform missing.
Sir, it's possible you have an infiltrator with you.
This is Westcott. Stop the bus. Stop The bus!
Stop the car.
It's OK. Sir, he is in the rear jeep.
It's all gonna be OK.
Mum?
Let's go.
