The following programme contains strong language and violent scenes.
You're going to Tallinn. UDC's going to be there.
I'm announcing River in four days
and it will be released on the 28th.
'Where is he now?' He should be in Tallinn.
You need to find him and stay with him.
(PLATFORM WHIRRING) Distance to the target is 75m.
What are the obstacles? A...metal detector
and an ultra-sensitive scanner
but I've got an idea for that. That's very clever.
The glass is bullet-resistant.
It'll stop five rounds from a 7.62mm rifle.
That is a fucking work of art.
Can you call them please?
I do not want her here. Angela, go inside.
I'm talking to my husband and child! Please go back inside.
You have good man face.
NURIA: 'Why do you need this disguise?'
JACKAL: 'There are people looking for me.'
(BUZZER SOUNDS)
Could I see some ID, please?
Hi, is that Rasmus?
I just wondered if you wanted to grab a drink?
What sort of vibe would you say I have?
Kinda serious. Also a bit dangerous.

(SOFT, INTRIGUING MUSIC)
So, two British Intelligence officers
arrived here last night from Budapest.
Male, mid-30s, white,
about 5'10", brown hair.
Female about the same age,
Black, first name: Bianca.
I was wondering if your people might be able to do something about them.
Wait, are you asking me for my help?
Sure.
On it. Rodin's arriving on Friday.
They're gonna ask me if you're confident it can be done.
Well, you can tell them whatever they wanna hear.
Well, I'm also asking for myself.
So, what would you like me to tell you?
That you'll deliver.
(SCOFFS SOFTLY)
(CHAIR SCRAPES)
I'm on your side.
I was hoping that would be clear by now.
I was hoping this could be even more of a collaboration.
I don't collaborate.
You won't hear from me until after it's done
and I expect to be paid promptly.
It's me.
Yeah, I need some priority assistance on site.
Sure, I'll have the details sent to you right away.
We've set you up in the Cultural Attache's office.
Good morning. Welcome to Operation Anubis.
Someone's pulled their finger out.
The Foreign Secretary isn't a particularly generous man.
But he's personally very miffed about the Jackal
killing his friend, Manfred.
Did we get any matches from his DNA and prints?
Nothing.
This guy's a fucking ghost.
Oskar Ilves of the Estonian Internal Security Service is our liaison.
His team is going through hotels, hostels,
Airbnb's and private rentals.
They're also asking for a likeness,
so I want you to meet Cole.
Cole is going to help you put a face to the Jackal.
Wider...
It's a bit more, yeah... just like that. Yep. Like that.
Don't do anything else- Right, OK, yeah. What do you think?
Vince. You saw him, right?
Oh. For a split second. Well, what do you think?
Uh... Yeah, yeah. Could be him.
Look, Osi, this is the best it's gonna get it.
OK.
We'll share it with Oskar Ilves and the Estonians.
Thank you, Cole. (HAND SLAPS BACK)

(GULLS SQUAWKING)
Sir, I've just heard a British team tracked
the assassin to Hungary.
Unfortunately, he got away. He's resourceful and dangerous.
You cannot go to Tallinn. Do the launch from here.
If I hide away...
River's enemies win.
We've been planning this for a year.
The guests have been invited, 1,000 of them.
Ordinary people, all randomly selected.
They have no idea where they're going until they get there,
and they've all signed NDAs. People talk.
If we cancel now, UDC looks ridiculous.
Better ridiculous than dead.
Debatable.
(GROANS SOFTLY)
(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
Morning. There you are. (CHUCKLES)
Sorry, I had something early and I didn't wanna wake you.
What's that? Oh.
I managed to get my hands on these plans for the Konsterdisaal.
It's pretty astonishing what these guys managed to achieved.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) Yeah, I thought last night was pretty great too.
You've got a very nice smile, Rasmus.
Thank you. No, you sort of radiate kindness.
Wow. No, that's a good thing.
You can't have too much kindness these days. Hm.
Uh... if you're trying to compete, I should let you know
that nothing turns me on like a blueprint, so... Hm?
(WHISPERS) Show me the hot bits. (LAUGHS)
You wanna know? Yeah.
Yeah? Yeah.
So that bit there...
(INSECTS AND BIRDS CHIRP)
(SOFT, MELANCHOLY MUSIC)
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)
(SPEAKING IN SPANISH)
Nuri...
And how could you tell?
U...Probably by getting up there and having a look.
But this isn't even trying to explain it, so...
Well, I could take you.
Have a look.
Really? Mm.
It would have to be this afternoon, though.
There's a concert tonight and they'll shut the whole place down.
Like, total lockdown. What's that about?
I dunno, they just told us that after tonight
no-one's getting in or out without special permission.
Well, they've got me leaving this evening now, so,
I could do this afternoon, if that works?
Would you make it worth my while?
Buah...
Pfft...
(METALLIC CLANKING)
(TRAM BELL RINGS NEARBY)
Everything OK?
Yeah.
We're all good. Hm.
(METALLIC CLANK)
(MELANCHOLY MUSIC)
(SPEAKING IN ESTONIAN) MAN: Hey, Rasmus!
Fuck, I'm glad I'm not working tonight.
Imagine having to sit through three hours of classical piano.
(CHUCKLES) Imagine. (PIANO TUNING UP)
So, um... I'll just wait for you.
Use this to get back in here. Knock yourself out.
(CHUCKLES)
(RANDOM PIANO NOTES PLAY)
(SOFT, TENSE MUSIC)
(CHATTER IN ESTONIAN)
Rasmus?
Hey, how was that? You have no idea what that was.
That was, uh... that was pretty extraordinary.
(LAUGHS) What?
No, you're just so happy about it. It's hilarious.
That, for me, that was... that was a big thing.
Right.
Thank you.
No problem.
Do you wanna grab some food?
I'd love that, but I've got a ton of things I've gotta do
before I fly, so...
But I'll see you when I come and pick up my stuff?
Sure. Yeah?
Yeah. Yeah?
Yeah. (CHUCKLES) Yeah.
I've established a line of communication
with Keith Canvey, UDC's head of security.
I've sent him the facial composite.
But basically he won't share anything with us.
He's not even admitting UDC's coming to Tallinn.
I have Oskar Ilves for you, Osi. Put him on speaker.
Oskar, hi. It's Osi.
'Hi. We have a police officer who recognises the facial composite.
She talked to the guy last night at an Airbnb.
British. Name of Peter Gibson. I'm on my way to the location now.'
Oskar, I'm sending you one of our teams.
Siobhan, get them transports and an armed escort.
Your escort is Richard and Phil.
They'll meet you at the front of the building in five.
(CAR ENGINE TURNING OVER)
I've got the Airbnb location.
No! Down, down!
(MACHINE GUN FIRE)
(MACHINE GUN FIRE CONTINUES)
(ENGINE HISSING)
On me! Now!
(GUNSHOTS)
(BODY THUDS)
He aimed straight at you. That was a fucking hit.
Are you OK? Yeah.
Do you need to come inside?
N-No. No, uh... we need to go.
We need to go. Go. I'll deal with the police.
Hey. Hey, hey.
Be careful.
(CAR ENGINE STARTS)
You OK?
He didn't miss by much.
Yeah... Idiot.
Oskar Ilves, Internal Security.
Do you know if our guy's in there? We don't,
but he was definitely there last night.
We've covered all the exits. OK.
(INDISTINCT POLICE RADIO CHATTER)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Internal Security. Open the door.
Go!
(LOUD CRASH) SOLDIERS: Go, go, go, go!
Clear! Oh, shit.
(CLOSERS CLICK)
You OK? Uh... Yeah, I had some dodgy sushi.
(CHUCKLES) I'm hoping these'll bung me up before the flight.
Too much information. (CHUCKLES)
(STRAINING) Right...
It's been fun.
It's been more than fun.
You got a good-man face, Rasmus.
What does that mean?
Kindness just seems to come off you naturally.
Guess I'm just a happy person.
(INTRIGUING MUSIC)
NEWSREADER: 'Both UDC and DagHaus have remained tight-lipped
with regards to the upcoming announcement of River.
The venues in Dublin, Dubai and Kuala Lumpur
have all been rumoured as possible locations.
UDC has created quite a stir already
with hints to what his latest invention, River, can do.'
MAN: (ON TV) UDC, bless his pointy little head,
hasn't got the memo that class hatred...
(PHONE VIBRATES) ...makes no more sense now,
just when the world needs to pull together, than it ever did.
It didn't happen. In Tallinn.
It was a couple of Russians. They botched it.
Years after Communism, Russians are still drunk,
lazy, inept, corrupt peasants.
National characteristics always outlive regime change.
It was very short notice, Tim.
Do you know, when the Romans could no longer find enough Romans
to run their empire, Greatest empire the world has ever known,
they started hiring foreigners.
The rest is history. Decline and fall.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
No foreigners.
Mmm.
You tell Leonora we like Coughlin's class hatred line.
(SCOFFS)
This is Officer Kohver. She's sure she saw your man last night.
We were responding to a burglary in the building.
We spoke to a number of tenants on this floor.
And one man,
there was something about him, and he looked a lot like this.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
(SCANNER BEEPS)
Evening.
(WOMAN SPEAKS IN ESTONIAN) (SCANNER BEEPS)
Could I see your bag, sir?
Oh. It's probably the boot.
Thank you, that's fine.
Thank you.
KOHVER: He had a British passport in the name of Peter Gibson.
How did Gibson pay? Credit card.
We're checking to see if the card has been used.
I'll also get forensic team in for prints and DNA.
Hopefully, we can match results to what we found in Hungary.
And get Officer Kovher in with the artist.
See if we can get a better likeness.
Uh... These please.
And I'll get four of the nuts
and... and four of these chocolate bars.
How much will that be? Thirty Euros, please.
Thirty. Thirty Euros, Christ.

The Estonians are convinced they are. Have a look at this.
Yeah, someone is going out of their way to try and kill me.
OK, we get it, you're a big deal.
OK, we've updated the facial composite.
Ilves is distributing this to every cop in Estonia,
as well as airports, ports, railway stations,
car rental offices, and the venue.
What do you think?
Well, the Jackal never looks the same way twice, does he?
Ilves says Peter Gibson hasn't used his credit card in Tallinn
since he paid for the Airbnb.

Keith?
Bianca Pullman. Vince Pyne.
We work for Osi Halcrow.
Alright. Uh... Meet our guy.
How accurate is this? A local policewoman had eyes on him,
as close as I am to you,
for a minute or two.
OK. It's gonna be very helpful.
Yeah. Uh... There's also this.
Who am I looking at?
The Jackal in one of his disguises.
Seriously?
Maybe not so helpful, eh? (SCANNER BEEPING)
How do I look?
I want everyone gone by 1800 hours.
From 1800 the entire building is locked down.
No-one gets in or out without my personal authorisation.
(TRAM BELL RINGS)
KEITH: We'll keep these upper levels empty
with just armed guards up here covering the audience.
Keith, I've got a present for your dogs.
The Jackal left this behind.
Hm. It could have his scent on it.

UDC will arrive in the green room 20 minutes before the presentation.
It's sterile.
(DRILL BUZZING)

Am I looking at the luckiest people on the planet, or what?

The world as we know it...
'..is doomed.'(LAUGHTER)
Yep. Apparently we're doomed.
(CHUCKLES) I heard. 'Yeah, I know. The warm up act
is supposed to warm you up, not scare the shit out of you.
But come on, I flattered you.'
She's so cool. 'We need to have a serious talk.
I mean you, and I mean the millions of people watching this
on their phones and TVs around the world.'
Some of us,
no, most of us, have loads of stuff.
Well, we're not exactly lining up at the soup kitchens, are we?
Don't be embarrassed about it. But just because we have stuff,
doesn't mean we're not fucked.
(GUARD CHOKING QUIETLY) We're in denial.
(BONES CRUNCH) We keep pretending nothing bad
is happening when we know it is.
Come on, repeat after me.
We're fucked! ALL: We're fucked!
We have to change, and we know it.
And that change has to start with money,
because money equals power.
And when has power ever wanted change?
Change is like kryptonite for people with power. They go all...
(WAVERING) 'Urgh...' (LAUGHTER)
Who is this?
She's nobody.
'A hundred years ago, women said...
