Mouse! Come on.

Go on.

Tickets, please. Final call.

Quick as you can

Sir

Did he attack her?

Stop him!

Hey!

Come here, you!

(shouting)

(clamour)

Come on!

Whoa!

Sorry.

- Move!

- Oi, you!

What are you doing?

- for that one.

- (man) Hey!

Hey!

Oh, God!

- Dad, are you all right?

- I'm fine.

This little sh*t!

Dad, are you all right?

Hey!

Yeah, I'll have it with

you within the hour,

Sarah, I promise.

- Can I help you?

- (on phone) Hello?

Hello? Are you still there?

I'm with you, mate.

What are you playing at, pal?

(grunts)

You need to move.

Actually, I need to lie down.

Don't mess with me.

I'm sorry, mate.

It's my job.

Go on, give me the bag.

- Go, go, go!

- Close the doors!

Close the doors.

Are you all right?

Out the way. Run, run, run!

Police. Excuse me

Police.

(door beeps)

Come on.

(man) Police!

Stop, police!

Stop!

(pants)

(pants)

Should have warmed up.

(catches his breath)

Thank you.

All right.

Everything's fine.

Everyone could just make their way

back onto the train, please.

Are you OK, sir?

Yeah, I always look like this.

- Are you travelling with us, madam?

- No.

I'm going to need get some details,

if that's all right.

Sure. He could do with a feed first,

though, yeah?

- All right.

- Thanks. Thanks.

Listen, we're not going

to be delayed anymore, are we?

Nah.

Should be good to go now, sir.

Andy, we're good to go.

I'm in Standard.

I dropped my bag in Club.

Right.

Things people do for an upgrade!

(attendant chuckles)

(smattering of applause)

(announcer) Welcome onboard

this Heart Of Britain

overnight sleeper service to

With our compliments, sir.

Thank you.

I thought it was going to be

one of those nights!

(whistle)

(doors beep)

Cheers.

(inaudible conversation)

(engine starts)

Did they do it?

(device whirs)

Driver.

Driver?

Driver?!

(beep)

Andy?

Can you hear me, Andy?

Stop the train!

(device beeps)

(announcer) Attention, passengers,

for flight

This flight is now delayed

until 4:25am.

(passengers groan)

Apologies for

any inconvenience caused.

(woman) Oh

Half four!

(phone rings)

What? sh*t.

It's meant to be on silent.

No, it's meant to be off.

- Oh.

- No, Abs

Yes, the lasagne is still

edible, Tobi.

And, yes, you can have it.

It's not about the lasagne.

You got lasagne?

Uh. Are you up to no good?

(whispering) Yeah, not anymore.

I said to only

call me in an emergency.

I know

(phone rings)

sh*t.

It's Abby.

So, one of the UK's biggest

antivirus firms has a virus.

Yeah, couldn't write it. Could you?

Yeah. Thanks, Tobi.

Thank you very much.

Note to self - never confide

in Roger the lodger.

And that antivirus is used by what?

Hundreds of thousands of devices

all over the country.

(Tobi) Million-plus, actually.

Critical infrastructure.

Thousands of companies.

Lots of big ones.

Any suggestion on a specific target?

- Not yet.

- Guys, listen.

It's probably just a kid who's trying

to make a name for himself, OK?

And if it isn't?

Can you just

leave it to us, all right?

(woman)

Hiya. Boarding cards, please.

Yeah, OK.

You know, I could be back

in the office in like 40 minutes.

I could spend one hour, one hour

checking this out

and still make it back in time.

Abs, you've worked, like, what,

seven days a week for the last

six months?

This holiday, right, it's got to

happen. It's got to happen now.

If that antivirus is used by one

of the big banks, your card's not

going to work in the morning.

Well, it's a good thing we'll be

in Marrakech, then.

Our job is to protect people.

Babes, you're not Batman.

Sorry. Change of plan.

Sorry.

Tobi, meet me at reception

at quarter to.

Saj, put it in the sandbox.

Check the IOAs and set up

the incident room.

I am on my way.

Yeah.

For you, sir.

What time do we get to London

in the morning?

Just before six.

We'll be taking our time

making sure everyone

has a nice, relaxing journey.

Great.

Don't bring me anything else.

We haven't.

- Thank you very much.

- No, no, no. Thank you.

Well done, sir.

Take your jacket off.

I'll help you

- Just let me

- Will you tell her to stop fussing?

(woman) I'm just

Well deserved.

Share?

- (man) Absolutely.

- Deadline

That wasn't my intention, though.

I swear.

(clears throat)

Mm.

Can I have a word?

In, uh, private?

Sorry. Be right back.

(device beeps)

It's not going to

detonate or anything, is it?

- When were you last in here?

- Just before we set off.

Before we were meant to

Like five minutes before

we actually left?

More like ten. Everything was

exactly as it should be then.

Excuse me.

Sorry. Could you just

give us a minute, please?

Sorry. It's my son.

I said he could go to the lounge

to get a drink,

but he hasn't come back

and he's not in there.

He was definitely onboard

when we set off?

Yeah, he was with me in our cabin,

until we started to move.

C4.

Do you think that you can make

an announcement or something?

His name's Max.

We call him Mouse.

We're having a few problems with the

communication system at the moment.

He's not been past this way, though.

Must have gone the other way.

Have you checked the rear

three carriages?

You make a start.

I'll send a colleague to help.

- Who else has access?

- No-one.

And your line to the driver's

never failed before?

No. Can't call him.

Can't access the locomotive

when we're moving to tell them.

- Can't contact the ROC.

- ROC?

It's the Scotland Rail

Operating Centre based at Cowlairs.

- Can't just use your mobile?

- If I had any coverage.

Is it always like this?

We might miss it for a few seconds,

but there's been nothing

for minutes.

OK, so when I was chasing

those lads through the train

and you and everyone else was out

on the platform,

do you think someone could have

come here and done this?

I know they bloody did.

Just look at this.

They've deleted the CCTV too.

We've a lot of regular travellers

on this service -

you know, high-profile individuals,

businessmen, politicians.

Security is important to us.

When we were first about to

set off, I checked the tickets

of every single person on board.

There was no-one on who shouldn't

have been.

Anyone could have got on after.

How long till the next station?

Well, it's Motherwell.

We've lost our slot.

Could be anything up to 20 minutes.

Not waiting that long.

Hey, guys. Hey.

Sorry to bother you.

We need to make a call.

We're having trouble

with our phones.

Just wondering if any of

you have any signal -

if you could just check.

- (man) No. No, nothing.

- (others) No.

I haven't had anything

since I got on, or Wi-Fi.

What's going on?

We just need to make a call, sir.

Anyone?

(passengers chatter)

OK. Thank you.

Billy, a lady in car C has lost

her kid.

Can you go and help her?

Hey, guys. Sorry to bother you.

Has anyone got any phone coverage?

Nope. And if I don't send an email

in the next half-hour,

I won't have a job either.

- (woman) Is it always like this?

- Not a chance.

Happy enough to cough up

for technology.

It's the cost of people they resent.

I can see how interfering

with the wiring

could cause all sorts of things,

but how would it disrupt

coverage on different networks?

It wouldn't.

Something else would have to do that.

All right. Thanks a lot.

Actually it seems like I have.

You've got coverage?

I work up at Finnis Brae,

the oil rig.

This is satellite.

Yeah. And run a CI check.

If, uh

If any critical infrastructure

is compromised by this

we need to hear about it.

Yeah. On it.

(automated message) The number you

have called is not available.

- Says it's not available.

- Keep trying.

It's always available.

I'm calling emergency services.

No, no, trust me.

They won't know any more than us.

- Have you got the Internet on this?

- Can do video calls.

- Struggles a bit with data.

- I just want a number.

So

type in there and then hit search.

(raucous passengers

in next carriage)

(musical ringtone)

I'm sorry.

You worry too much.

If this job has taught me anything,

it's that no-one else worries enough.

Yeah, well, we found the antivirus

update with the bad code,

so it doesn't look like

a zero data ream.

It's a script kiddie.

It's a big hack but small hacker.

Unless they want us to think that.

Did you run the CI check?

Yes.

Some critical infrastructure

uses it,

OK, of course it does, but

Tobi should not have called you.

OK, Abby?

We can handle this, all right?

We have a more than capable

team here.

So just switch off

and get on that plane.

And

enjoy your freedom.

- Come on.

- What?

Yeah, come on.

- Marrakech awaits.

- (Saj) Great.

So just

check your phone when you land

and if there's anything,

anything else at all, all right,

I will contact you, so don't worry.

- Saj?

- Yeah?

A guy on the other line

just called Jenny with an urgent.

Abby's still available. I think she

really needs to take this.

(Abby) Leon, is that you?

Yeah. Uh, patch them through.

(beeping)

Hello, this is Abigail Aysgarth,

Acting Technical Director

at the National Cyber Security

Centre.

(man) This train is ready to depart.

Mind the closing doors.

Mind the closing doors, please.

Hello?

(distorted line) Can you hear me?

Hello. Yes, hello.

I'm on a train called

the Heart Of Britain.

It's the Glasgow to London

night-sleeper service.

We're currently between Glasgow

and Motherwell

and I think we may have a problem.

- (door beeping)

- OK. Um

- Oh. Abs

- Wait, wait.

Two seconds.

Sorry, who am I speaking with?

He's a DI in the Met.

This is Ian Crieff, train manager.

We're on the 9 Alpha 272.

OK, OK. Um

So

Yeah, so someone's ripped up

the floor in this guy's office.

The line to the driver's down

and the emergency stop has failed.

- What?

- Yeah.

And, uh, the wiring in the floor

has been tampered with

and there's a device attached.

And there's

no mobile phone coverage.

- Not on any network.

- Give me one second.

(phone beeping)

Saj?

The critical infrastructure

that uses the antivirus?

Yeah.

It's not the UK rail network,

is it?

How did you know?

Hello?

Hello?

Hi. Hi. Sorry, I was just talking

to a colleague.

What did you say your name was?

Does it matter?

So how did you know to call us?

I've done a couple of training days

at your place.

Really regretting zoning out now.

And, um, if there are no phones

working on there, then

- Then how are we talking?

- This is satellite.

- Where are you - on the roof?

- The aerials are.

It's repeaters throughout.

And that's separate from the Wi-Fi?

Look, I was hoping that we'd be

the ones asking the questions -

you'd be providing the answers.

That's a bit harsh,

but, uh, yeah, fair.

Right. So what sort of device is it?

Small. There are two aerials on top.

A USB on the side and numbers

rolling across the screen.

And credit card small

or smartphone small?

Credit card small.

OK. That's an SBC.

Uh, a?

A single board computer.

Is it an expl*sive device?

No, it's it's a hacking device.

For what?

For somebody somewhere to

attempt to interfere with the train.

"Interfere"?

How is the train behaving

at the minute?

"Behaving"?

Is there anything unusual about

the way it's being driven?

Well, it's moving. Does that count

as unusual these days?

There's nothing unusual at all.

(Abby) And it's going at the speed

you'd expect?

- Exactly.

- (Joe) Why?

We did some training a while

back on the feasibility

of somebody actually taking control

of a train this way, and

Oh, yeah, how did that pan out?

Uh, only took Ubers for a month.

Well, do you think someone has?

Has what?

Taken control.

(Abby)

They may be trying to, but

If you knew how many things

were tried every day,

then you not only would never leave

the house,

but you'd unplug everything in it.

But the fact is, most most fail.

OK, give me one more minute.

Hey, give me that. Sorry.

Just

Come on.

And your phone. I need another line.

(phone rings)

Saj. The Heart Of Britain's sleeper

service may have been hacked.

What?

The train is approaching Motherwell.

It's due to stop there

and I'm praying that that's

still going to be the case.

If it does, we need to get a police

team and a cyber team on board.

We need to get everyone off

immediately

and hold it there

until further notice.

And can you see if there are

any other problems

with any other

trains around the country?

Yeah. Already typing.

Think I could unplug this

and disconnect it.

No, no, wait! No, don't.

- Well, it looks simple enough.

- Sorry, how techie are you?

Honestly?

Paid a guy to set up my broadband.

Yeah, don't touch it.

Don't go anywhere near it.

That's what he said.

Look, it'll already be

in the system, anyway.

- And could even be trip-wired.

- Meaning?

(Abby) Well

It could cause it to accelerate

so fast that it derails.

And

Listen,

when you stop at Motherwell,

we're going to

have police there waiting.

What if it doesn't?

- Doesn't?

- Stop.

Look, we just need to get

everybody off.

How the f*ck is this happening?

Hey, it's all right. It's OK.

Really doesn't sound OK.

No. No, I don't suppose it does.

But

I'm all for the "buts".

But?

I'm here.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm here.

(rowdy passengers laughing)

(music starts up)

Can you ask them to turn it down?

You used to be fun.

No, I didn't.

No, actually

No, you didn't.

Uh, girls, you're going

to have to turn that up.

(shrieking and laughter)

Do you Do you know how long this

is going to take?

It's just that I'm waiting on quite

an important phone call, so

I'm going as quick as I can, yeah.

Doing my best.

Thank you.

There's something else bothering me.

(music and laughter)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's

quite a bit bothering me.

Before we left the station, there

was an incident on the platform.

A lad stole a bag.

Right. OK.

Another guy helped him.

I got it back.

Transport Police went after him,

but it delayed us a few minutes.

Eight.

Eight minutes.

But our office was unguarded

for ten.

It must have happened then.

Either that was a real stroke

of good luck,

or some other person loitering

on the platform, or

This involves multiple people

and is preplanned

as part of a major operation.

That's where I'm at.

Oh, God.

It's all right. I'm here too.

Tobi?

Pull the CCTV from

Glasgow Central at the time

the 9 Alpha 272

should have set off.

Put a ring around those ten minutes,

then run retrospective facial recs

on everyone on the platform.

See if there's anyone

on the database

or if anyone got

off the train and left the station.

OK. UK Rail does have its own

cyber defence team.

Great.

- However

- However?

All their devices currently seem to

be locked and the lines of both

UK Rail and the train-operating

companies are cutting in and out.

So yeah.

I'd say he's right.

It's definitely been planned -

in detail.

Do you think I should

bring Pev back in?

What? No.

Look, when he was at HQ,

he literally wrote the book

on this.

Abby, if Paul Peverell sets

foot in here again,

you know Miller is going to

lose her sh*t, all right. Just

(phone rings)

(rock music blasts)

# It makes me wanna laugh

like it makes we wanna choke.

# Choke, choke, go! #

(phone buzzes)

(rock music)

- Hey, hey!

- Pev?

Can you?

- What?

- Can Can you hear me?

What? I can't hear ya!

Oh

- (rock music continues)

- (Joe) Abby, can you hear me?

Hello.

Are you?

Hello. Yes. I'm here.

Can you hear me?

Yeah. Um I lost you for a minute,

then. I'm

I'm on a train as well.

I thought you were in Victoria.

Yeah. Heading there.

I'm, um

I was at the airport, actually,

but

That's all right.

I'm not that keen on planes, anyway.

Yeah, I'm starting to

go off trains.

Though, to be fair, the atmosphere

on yours does sound significantly

better than mine.

Yeah, well, this

is a bit of a banger, isn't it?

# You said I must eat so many lemons

because I am so bitter. #

# I said I'd rather

be with your friends, mate.

# Cos they are much "fittah". #

(laughs)

Um, yeah. Sorry. If I, um

If I lose you again,

will you call me back direct on,

uh, 077 double zero 900631?

- (interference)

- Ah. sh*t!

Hey, Abby, are you there?

sh*t!

07700

800

(phone beeps)

How long is this going to go on for?

I have to send an an email.

What's that?

(Joe) That's what we're

trying to work out.

- You qualified for that?

- Absolutely not.

(repeated tones)

Ah, sh*t. What was it?

0-7

It was 0-7 something.

Meg? Meg! Are you?

Come on, leave them alone. They're

currently the best company on here.

(Joe) 077 00

So who have you been speaking to?

The National Cyber Security Centre.

(repeated tones)

- And your name is?

- What? What are you doing?

I'm Rachel Li.

I'm a lifestyle trends reporter.

Sorry to bother you.

We can't find her son anywhere.

(woman) Please.

I've looked everywhere you said.

We've been right to the end.

Knock on every cabin.

Just go door-to-door.

Are you going to

give me your name?

- Please, please.

- Suit yourself.

Sending a different story now.

Hey, wait!

Don't take this the wrong way, but

next time I'm getting the Megabus.

(phone rings)

Great.

We're in.

- (phone rings)

- Oh!

Yes.

Hey, I didn't think you'd get it.

Really Really wasn't the same

without you, Abigail.

Abby is fine.

Um How are things?

Uh, I'm on a moving train

which someone appears to be trying

to drive from their bedroom.

A kid's gone missing, and I've just

had Laura Kuenssberg on my case.

I'd say things could be better.

(Saj) Tell me

you did not call Pev.

I don't need your permission

to do anything, Mr Sidhu.

No. But you do need DG's.

(phone rings)

Um Yeah, can you hold on for me

for a minute?

Holding on, Abby.

Holding on.

(phone rings)

Well, the side effect of

this happening within two hours

of my Mansion House speech

is that I appear to be more dressed

for the occasion than you!

Uh Ma'am.

There are no reports of problems

with any other trains.

Not at the moment.

We have managed

to get through to Cowlairs,

and UK Rail's Gold Command is

assembling as we speak.

But the transport secretary

is remaining elusive.

Seems she sleeps more deeply

than the rest of us.

After recent headlines,

I'm not sure how.

And who's going to have

operational control?

Security, Police Scotland,

and the BTP are all claiming it,

but the decision has been made.

You are.

This is why we exist, Abby.

And tonight's either the night

former technical directors get

a call begging them to come back,

or acting technical directors lose

the "acting" for good.

- You mean it?

- On one condition.

- Do not, under any circumstances

- (phone alert pings)

call Paul Peverell.

OK. Um

Um, ma'am, no-one's managed

to get through to the driver,

but the police are now on the scene

and the train does appear

to be slowing on its approach

to Motherwell.

So they think it's going to stop

as planned.

(with relief) OK.

Maybe I didn't need to take

that ibuprofen, after all.

But they still need to get everyone

off as quickly as they can.

Yeah, we've made that clear.

So we may actually be in control?

Ha. Ah. Not quite.

Um, we've got those facial recs

back from Glasgow Central.

Seems there's currently

an Interpol red out for someone

on that train.

- What?

- Police have already been informed.

They disappeared whilst released

on investigation end of last year.

We're looking at a picture

of them now.

(Joe) Abby, the train is stopping,

thank God.

What do you want me to do? Yeah.

Listen, there's somebody

on your train

who should not be approached.

Yeah, my colleague's just sending

through a description of them now.

A white male.

Around 35 years of age.

(phone pings)

Facial hair.

It's nothing to do with me.

I promise.

(phone pings)

Wearing a red and black

checked jacket.

What are the chances?

If I'm honest, it's ridiculous.

Hey, get back here!

(Saj) Want to know

the craziest thing?

He actually used to be a DI

in the Met.

Sorry, sorry. Thanks. Sorry.

I poured you a glass of wine,

but you took so long I drank it.

(sirens)

(chatter)

Make sure everyone

gets off the front.

That him?

Keep every door locked bar this one.

I'm going to need everyone out

onto the platform, please.

(murmuring, groans)

That's everyone out via the front

doors of carriage A only.

Right, ladies and gentlemen,

you heard the man.

Onto the platform,

quick as you can, please.

All other doors must remain

That includes whoever's in there.

(man on phone) Hello?

Can I get a cab from

Motherwell station, please?

Motherwell station.

About 20 minutes.

Is that OK?

Hello?

Is that OK?

(knocking)

We're going to need you to get off,

please.

You need to use the door at the far

end of the front carriage.

Right, they're at Motherwell.

Police Scotland officers

are present

and engineer's

a couple of minutes away.

OK.

Uh, but there are now reports

coming in of signalling problems

in quite a lot of places.

The rail network's in meltdown.

Are YOU still moving, Abby?

Yes.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll be there shortly.

Where's Draycott?

We have what

appears to be coordinated attacks

on completely separate systems.

We need to speak to the minister.

We have located her.

She's on a train too.

(Abby) Well, get her off it.

We would, but she seems

to be out of coverage.

Hang on.

The transport secretary's on a train?

Yeah, apparently.

She's out of coverage.

Yeah.

Do we know what train it is?

(knock at door)

Yes?

(Billy) We're going to need you

to get off, please.

There's a problem with the train.

Leave via the front door of carriage

A and assemble on the platform.

Thank you.

There's no way I'm going out there.

One picture of me stuck on a

platform in the middle of nowhere

next to an unreliable train

and I'm viral again.

Let me see what I can do.

(indistinct chatter)

(police radio)

(muttering) Jesus Christ.

Ow!

(game music plays)

(radio chatter)

If you could just leave your luggage

and follow me, please.

Will we be able to get back on?

I don't know, but if you could

please just

Well, can you please do your job

and find out?

Do we need to empty our cabins?

(woman) Uh, no, no.

If you could please just

My father-in-law has got

important medication in there.

My dad's not really well enough

to be on here,

but he used

to drive this train.

- I think you can make an exception.

- I'm sorry.

We can't put him out into the cold.

Ignore them. They don't know

what they're talking about.

- I'm fine.

- Fraser, please

Would you get off me!

I don't need your hand

or anybody else's hand

permanently attached to my elbow!

- Calm down.

- He is going to have to get off.

I'm going to need to speak to

the train manager then.

This is ridiculous.

- Hey.

- You want us to go down there?

Um, yes. Yes.

Well, you're going to have to remove

the kitchen and half the chairs,

cos that carriage isn't accessible.

Um

- Well, isn't this just wonderful?

- OK. Yeah.

The great unwashed waltzing

willy-nilly through the club lounge.

(clamour)

(murmuring) Yeah, I'm coming.

Sorry. Right.

Yeah. Excuse me.

Sorry. Excuse me.

(brakes squeal)

(PA) Apologies for the jolt there,

ladies and gentlemen.

We're just being held

at a red signal.

Yeah, can we get confirmation

that everyone's

off the Heart Of Britain?

- S

- (beeping)

(passengers clamour)

Ladies and gentlemen,

leave your bags, please.

(man) Ian.

Fella says there's a problem

with the comms.

Did you not think it was strange

no-one had spoke to you

since Glasgow?

Excuse me.

Can you just keep moving, please?

Thank you.

I couldn't get through to you.

Cowlairs couldn't get through

to either of us.

It's about my dad.

Yeah, I don't care

if it's about MY dad. Off!

Ian.

You need to open Door 5.

No, one only.

There's a woman in a wheelchair.

I've spoken to them twice.

What?

Cowlairs.

No, you haven't.

I've spoken to somebody.

My father's not well enough

to get

Everybody's leaving!

- You don't understand.

- Come on.

Sorry, sorry. Sorry.

Turn around!

Don't resist!

I said I'm sorry!

It was an accident.

Come on.

My dad's not well.

I need to stay on the train. Please.

Please, have you seen my boy?

I have to stay on the train.

My dad's not well.

You any good on that?

What's your favourite course?

Mine's

Mine's the Water Park.

Mine too.

(Billy) Excuse me. Everybody off

here, Carriage A, please.

Please leave your luggage

where it is and make your way

to the front of the train.

Delay compensation is available

on the Heart of Britain website.

Thank you.

You need to leave the train, sir.

- No, that dude's got my phone

- Leave that to us.

Excuse me, madam.

Excuse me, madam.

Just leave your luggage where it is

and make your way to the front.

Please make your way

to the front the train.

Thank you very much.

(dramatic music crescendos)

Hey! I think we've been

looking for you.

Anyone else in there?

Make your way along.

Your mum's waiting

for you on the platform.

Go up the front of the train.

Just let me get my console.

(radio) Urgent assistance

needed on the platform.

(clamour)

Step right away from the train.

Right away from the train.

Come on, send.

Excuse me, have you seen a wee boy?

He's got a yellow hat on.

- No, I'm sorry.

- Excuse me

Is this absolutely necessary?

- I'm afraid it is, madam.

- Ian, the wheelchair.

Where are you going?

To get my things.

Get right back from that door!

But you have to open

an accessible door.

You see,

this is a very delicate situation.

- What is?

- For the minister for transport.

Twitter is not her friend.

Ian!

Right, get the ramp.

- Excuse me. Are you the husband?

- Yeah.

My colleague's getting

a ramp for your wife.

We will open another door for you.

No, not just our light, every light.

What's happening?

Thank you for your patience.

I'll be with you shortly.

(woman) Oh! Thank you!

We've got places to be.

(Meg) Abby.

Ab!

Sorry.

- Emergency.

- (man) You can't come in here.

- I'm really sorry. Sorry.

- OK.

- Hey!

- Bye-ee.

Hey!

Abs, wait.

Why are you all still here?

It's not my choice.

We really should have booked

passenger assist, you know.

Well, how could I have known

that this?

I'll get off.

Only when there's another train

to get onto.

Right, you need to get off, mate.

So do you.

All right, come on then.

(Max) Why is it not opening?

(Joe) I don't know.

(train powers up)

(lock rattles)

(man) Hey, I said to keep

the doors closed!

- Was that you?

- No.

Mouse!

- Mouse!

- Mum!

- Mum!

- Open it.

(Joe) I'm trying!

It's not opening.

I'll be right back.

She's getting the ramp.

(powering up)

Mum!

Mum!

No!

Mouse.

- Mum!

- Stop the train.

- Yes, I'm

- Mum!

Mum!

Hold on!

(Mouse exclaims)

(Joe) Move!

Mum!

- Mouse!

- Mum!

Andy!

Hey. Hey!

(Lindsey) Mouse!

Move.

Mum! No!

Mum!

Mouse!

(sobs)

Where is everyone?

OK, hang on. Two seconds.

I'm just going through

- Saj?

- Yeah.

What the hell?

Well?

Saj, I'm off the Gatwick Express.

Give me an update.

Saj?

They're saying it's left the station

again with some passengers

still on board.

What?

But without the driver.

Any driver.

Abs. Abs, we have

a hostage situation.

What is this?

I have no idea

but every train

across the country stops right now.

Abs.

Abby. Look.

(PA) Passengers are reminded that

(distorted) my name is the driver.

Passengers are reminded that

tonight, I am in control.

In control.

Passengers are reminded that

- (mobile rings)

- my name is the driver.

Tonight, I am in control.

(Joe) It's Joe.

My name is Joe.

And

I'll help you. I will.

But you're going to

have to help me too.

(PA) My name is the driver.

Why would I possibly do that?

I mean, how can I trust YOU?

(PA) Tonight, I am in control.

What else you got?

We appear to have been hijacked.

- Hijacked?

- Who's driving, then?

We haven't got access to something

called the RTV.

That should show the position of

every train in the country

at any given moment.

It's how we stop them colliding.

- Did you look into the detective?

- Former.

We will not be working

with him again.

Minister, we need that phone line.

Why don't we just stick

with this guy?

He is the reason the police

were at Motherwell.

You really think you can make it?

We've got our best man on it.

Elvis is in the building.

- He leaves!

- I'm leaving!

- Jesus!

- Come on!

Joe!
