Hello?
Ma'am' we may have a problem.
What sort of problem?
I'm looking at the hashtag
on socials
for this protest' ma'am.
And there's a post
from an account in the south
saying there's a group
of Republicans in Dublin
on their way north.
What does it say?
It just says' "We're gonna
put a stop to this bollocks".
Who are they?
The account's anonymous.
So you're telling me that
a group of southern Republicans
are on their way
to a Loyalist area?
It looks that way' ma'am.
OK. Get me some air cover.
We're gonna need
all the eyes we have
on this now. I'm on my way.

I'm Aisling. I'm gonna tell you
what's happening here.
Hold on a minute' skipper.
Outside your front door
there are two groups
that are coming together.
And if it all kicks off'
there could be
a full-blown riot'
with all of you
in the middle of it.
Now is not the time to be
standing on your principles.
Excuse me?
All that matters
is making the right decision.
Not for you.

Silver from Bronze one.
They're dispersing.
Are you OK?
Look
..I know it's not easy.
Do you?
Have you been here long' or?
Does it matter?
Sorry' I just' er
It's fine.
Nine years.
We left during the war'
in Syria
My brother and me.
I'm the only one
who made it out.
I was' um
..in a camp in Lebanon.
Then they sent me here.
I was 20
..when I arrived.
I work at the university.
I'm a librarian.
It's going to be OK.
Will it?
Anything?
We're running on empty here'
Coity.
C4 had to withdraw
the extra surveillance.
I know' right?
I fuckin' know.
So what do we have left?
So here' one fixed camera'
one external, one audio asset.
Right.
Shit.
Long time' no see' Mrs McIntyre.
All work and no play' Jackie.
Mrs McIntyre.
So good to see you again.
Nice to see you too.
Some tea?
Pina colada.
Of course.
Hmm.
Thank you.
Thanks' love.
So
You're keeping well?
The very best.
And yourself?
Oh, the weather
gets to me sometimes.
You know I think sometimes'
if we had Spanish weather'
we'd never have had
The Troubles.
Although' that does
beg the question
of the Spanish Civil War.
Yeah' but that didn't last
30 years' did it?
Know why?
Weather was too nice.
They're giving us fuck all.
Patience is a virtue' Coity.
Have it if you can.
Found seldom in a woman'
and never in a man.
How long's it been?
Four months' two weeks'
three days.
They know.
You what?
They know.
They've known all along.
Look at it' Damo.
It's a pantomime.
Widow Twankey
and the Evil Queen.
And right now
I'm fucking Buttons.
You deserve a good time!
Come in' Helen.
Oh, have a seat.
Thoughts?
It was a disaster.
Go on.
There will be edited highlights
on social media.
It will be spun to say
we bottled in the protestors
deliberately'
making them sitting ducks.
Political policing.
Added to which' we knew nothing
about the protest'
the Dublin contingent' or
the people who attacked them.
We were
dangerously understaffed'
and those officers who
were injured would be justified
in coming after us
for compensation claims.
You made a lot of decisions
in the moment.
Big ones.
I understand if you want to
refer it upwards' ma'am.
I thought you were
..superb.
Thank you' ma'am.
I'm going to share some
information with you' Helen.
It's highly confidential.
The organisation is headed
for a major restructure.
Realignment of districts'
consolidation of assets.
I've been given the nod
to apply for the role
of Assistant Chief Constable.
Congratulations' ma'am.
I'm gonna need somebody I trust
at my side at headquarters.
I want that person to be you.
I don't know what to say' ma'am.
Well, usually that means you
don't yet know how to say no.
I appreciate the offer' ma'am'
I do.
But I've barely got my feet
under the table here.
I'm managing the uniform side
of Op Harvest
Which to date
has harvested what exactly?
Ma'am' there's been
a lot of changes for me
over the last couple of years
and I think
..right now'
I need to be here.
But that's the thing' Helen.
In a few months' time'
there may not be a here.
They're looking
at closing Blackthorn.
Sarge?
Looks nasty.
You want to get that checked.
Nah.
It's stopped bleeding.
See' that's the difference
between me and you.
Friggin' class.
Very good. Very good.
All call signs from
Control, Bronze is stood down.
Silver signing off.
Thank God for that.
Oh' yeah.
Hello.
Hello?
Yeah' no' that's me.
You what?
I passed?
I passed!
No. No' that's
No' thank you.
Thank you.
Don't tell anyone.
Course I'm not gonna
tell anyone.
OK' everybody' could youse
gather around' please?
I have an announcement to make!
Stevie!
I am pleased to report
that Constable Grace Ellis
is now officially
Detective Constable Grace Ellis!
Hip hip!
Hooray!
Hip hip!
Hooray!
Hip hip!
Hooray!
You dickhead.
Yeah' all right' get in' get in.
Come on!
This can't be real.
It can't be true. I mean
..we're already running
on a skeleton crew
and they want to close
a police station?
It's a numbers game.
How do you mean?
The quarterly crime stats.
Blackthorn is bottom
of the table.
The thinking is'
we consolidate our estate -
fewer stations'
doing a better job -
we can get those statistics
where they need to be.
They've made the decision?
Not quite. It's
in consultation. But' um
..it's clear which way
the wind is blowing.
It's madness.
It's life.
And you're the only one
who benefits.
Excuse me?
You move up' and we move out.
Was that the deal?
Are you suggesting?
That you would do anything
to get to the top table?
You're dismissed!
No. No!
Excuse me?
No. I am not going anywhere'
and neither is anybody else.
Oh, for God's sake
If you think I'm going to sit
on my arse and let
this organisation
destroy this station at the
stroke of a fucking keyboard'
you're sorely mistaken!
Like I said' this information
is highly confidential.
You breathe a word
Don't worry' ma'am. I am not
as stupid as you think I am.
Helen!
If it's a numbers game'
then fine.
Let's play a numbers game.
A few days off for McCloskey'
there.
I know. Flip me.
It looks bad' like.
Annie' Shane.
I need you to deliver this.
Yeah.
Amira Saeed?
Is that the?
Chairperson of
the migrant centre' yeah.
She's under threat?
Her name and face
are all over socials.
And not the good socials.
OK.
Er' what are we going to do
to help her?
We give her the leaflet.
Skipper
Annie' I know.
Just let me know
when it's delivered' yeah?
Right' I suppose
we'd better pick up a leaflet.
Fuck's sake.
You've got to be fucking joking!
I have no choice.
May I remind you'
you're supposed to be
supporting Op Harvest'
not skinning it alive!
District is priority.
I made that clear
in my submission.
Y-Your submission?
You went over my head?
In case you haven't noticed'
we have a racial violence
problem on our doorstep
and your department
dropped the ball on it today -
twice!
I need those TSGs
to tidy up your mess!
What in God's name's
going on with you?
This is a cartel, Helen!
A fucking cartel!
Mexico' Trinidad' Ireland' UK!
You know that!
And you know who's behind it.
Yeah' we know
and we can't prove' Coity.
Same as it's always been.
Same as it always will be.
I need to put our assets
where they can make
the most difference.
That is my job.
Fuck!
Statistics?
Stop and searches'
drink-driving'
clearance rates
on all volume crime.
We need to get the numbers up
before the next
quarterly report.
Why?
Because it's our job.
Helen' we've just had
a major public order incident.
Like' surely we should be
getting in to those areas'
talking to people
Sandra' we need to get
the stats up' starting now.
OK.
Fine.
And put a temporary hold on
any transfers or secondments.
We need everybody we have.
Fill in every call sign
we can muster.
Ma'am
..Grace Ellis just passed
her detective's exam.
She's due to start in
Child Protection on Monday.
No.
No' we need her here.
I'm sorry.
Grace.
Ma'am?
Everything all right?
I need to delay your transfer.
Delay? Until when?
Indefinitely.
Sorry? What?
You're needed here.
No' I've just
I've just been offered a job.
I start next week.
Grace
..I'm sorry.
Why?
It's operational.
So what does that mean?
Grace' you're needed here.
That's all I can say.
Bit mad.
Was' yeah.
Aisling.
Can we talk?
I have a thing to go to
It'll only take a minute.
So you said
a couple of weeks ago
that you just needed some time
to think'
to to get your head
around things.
I did' aye.
So I was wondering
..how much time do you need?
Like' could we maybe
go for a drink or something'
or have a chat
about everything?
Um
Tommy' I need to tell you
something. Um
Before I came back' I' um
..I asked to go back to Derry.
But they' er'
they said that they
..they were short-staffed'
so they needed me here.
To Derry?
What' so so you?
So' um
I-I think I knew then'
but I just
I didn't know how.
I can't do this.
With you.
I can't do it any more.
Aisling' hang on for a second'
OK?
You you just need
more time' and that's fine.
No.
Honestly' Aisling' I
No. I don't need more time.
I know.
I' um
I think I was just scared.
I didn't know how to
Aisling' you can't do this
to me' please.
You can't make
a decision like this.
You've only been back
for three weeks!
I can. And I have.
Are you still angry at me?
I'm not angry
with you at all, Tommy.
So why are you
doing this to me?
Tommy' I'm not
angry with you at all!
You did the right thing!
So why are you doing this
to me' then?
Why are you punishing me
like this' Aisling?
It's too close' Tommy!
It's far too close.
Surely you can see that as well?
Listen to me' OK?
So
..what about this' right?
Why don't you
take the transfer' OK
and go to Derry' or go go
anywhere' and we'll No' no
..wait until this passes
please listen to me' Tommy.
Aisling' please don't do this.
I don't mean physically close.
I mean it's just I
I don't have room for this.
What?
I don't have room for this'
Tommy.
I don't have room
for the emotions.
And I'm not going to.
I need to be on my own.
I'm sorry.
Ah' Aisling.
The public order enquiry team
are going to need
your body worn yeah?
I've uploaded it' skipper.

This evening?
A High Court judge has ruled
that video surveillance showing
the murder of a police officer
can be shown
as part of a murder trial
starting next week.
Maurice McIntyre and
Anthony Donovan were present
when Constable Gerry Cliff
was shot dead in Belfast
almost three years ago.
Stop watching that shite.
Footage of the incident
believed to have been filmed
by an MI5 surveillance team
will now be played in court.
It's' er' from your da.
It's open.
Well, they do that.
He's' um wishing you
all the best for the trial.
Wishing me all the best.
Meaning keep my mouth shut.
What the fuck are you doing'
huh?
You're on bail. You're not
supposed to be drinking.
Not supposed to drink'
not supposed to go out'
not supposed to
..tell the truth!
Shut your fucking mouth'
you don't know who's listening.
Tell me. Tell me this.
When did it start for Da?
And for you?
Because you were in on it too.
You must have been.
So go on' tell me.
When did you first become
a fucking tout?

By you?
Hmm?

Yes?
Amira' do you mind

Can you tell me why?
We're here to deliver a form
called a TM1.
It's a notification of
an active threat against you
and possibly your home.
Er
From who? Who is it?
OK' so all we know
is what it says there.
What it says here is that
somebody means to do me harm.
Who?
I'm sorry' Amira'
that's all they tell us.
So what am I supposed to do?
Er
There's some security advice
in this.
Lock the doors?
pull the curtains?
You you can protect me'
though' right?
I mean' we can't physically
do that.
What do you mean
you can't physically do it?
Someone wants to hurt me
and you give me a leaflet?
Amira
Have you any idea
what it's like to be told this?
Have you any idea
what you're saying to me
right now?
Amira we can offer you
passing attention.
Passing attention?
Yes.
It's where we drive by
now and again'
we make sure everything's OK.
I live here by myself
Here.
What's this?
It's my personal phone number.
Annie
Listen.
If you call 999'
they won't send
an immediate call sign
unless there's actually
something happening outside'
and that's too late.
So if you see anything'
anything suspicious'
or if you're worried
about anything' just call me.
Any time' OK?
And if I'm not on shift'
I'll find someone who is.
What the actual fuck?
Just leave it' Shane.
Annie' your personal mobile?
Are you mad?!
I said fucking leave it.
OK?
Look' I get it. OK?
I get it. I'm not stupid.
Did you ever look into it?
Into what?
Well, you said
there was two other cops
got the same threat you did.
Did you ever find out more?
What's the point?
I can never go back home.
Two seconds.
Another bucket emptied.
You'll get there' Grace.
I thought I was there.
I suppose
this is how it happens.
How what happens?
How you lose faith.
You're not allowed to.
Why not?
Because if you lose faith'
we all do.
Come on.
Shall we go home?
Yeah.
Come on.
Yeah. Gerry loved his music.
He sure did.
Thank you.
It's not easy.
What isn't?
Losing someone.
However it happens.
The trial starts next week
and
..I'm gonna have to
give evidence'
cos I was the custody sergeant.
They're gonna ask me about him.
And even now
..I haven't got the words
for
..what he meant.
Can I give you some advice?
Turn up on time.
Go home on time.
Just do the job.
Until you feel
you can breathe again.
Maybe the job's the problem.
How do you mean?
Well, it gives you things.
Aisling.
Gerry.
And then it takes them away
ten times over.
I just feel
You feel what?
I just feel like
I've got nothing left to lose.

on Matchhill Street.
Get them out!
This is our town!
Our city! Our people!
- Get them out!
- What about us?
Hello?
Ma'am' we may have a problem.
What sort of problem?
I'm looking at the hashtag
on socials
for this protest' ma'am.
And there's a post
from an account in the south
saying there's a group
of Republicans in Dublin
on their way north.
What does it say?
It just says' "We're gonna
put a stop to this bollocks".
Who are they?
The account's anonymous.
So you're telling me that
a group of southern Republicans
are on their way
to a Loyalist area?
It looks that way' ma'am.
OK. Get me some air cover.
We're gonna need
all the eyes we have
on this now. I'm on my way.
That's class.
Do you have any special
talents' would you say?

Shut up' Shane.
Why? Do you?
Robotic dancing.

You know

for a second.
All call signs from Silver'

I'm sorry. We're

You want us to run'
Constable

We've been running

There's nowhere left to go.
Bronze one from 7-4.
We have a bit of an issue here.
- Hang on a second.
- What is it' Annie?
I'm Aisling. I'm gonna tell you
what's happening here.
Hold on a minute' skipper.
Outside your front door
there are two groups
that are coming together.
And if it all kicks off'
there could be
a full-blown riot'
with all of you
in the middle of it.
Now is not the time to be
standing on your principles.
Excuse me?
All that matters
is making the right decision.
Not for you.
For them.
Take them.
But I want to stay.
Fine.
But can you help us
get them out?
Yes.

All right' fellas?

See me in my office.
Soon as you can.
Silver from Bronze one.
They're dispersing.
Are you OK?
Look
..I know it's not easy.
Do you?
Have you been here long' or?
Does it matter?
Sorry' I just' er
It's fine.
Nine years.
We left during the war'
in Syria
My brother and me.
I'm the only one
who made it out.
I was' um
..in a camp in Lebanon.
Then they sent me here.
I was 20
..when I arrived.
I work at the university.
I'm a librarian.
It's going to be OK.
Will it?
Anything?
We're running on empty here'
Coity.
C4 had to withdraw
the extra surveillance.
I know' right?
I fuckin' know.
So what do we have left?
So here' one fixed camera'
one external, one audio asset.
Right.
Shit.
Long time' no see' Mrs McIntyre.
All work and no play' Jackie.
Mrs McIntyre.
So good to see you again.
Nice to see you too.
Some tea?
Pina colada.
Of course.
Hmm.
Thank you.
Thanks' love.
So
You're keeping well?
The very best.
And yourself?
Oh, the weather
gets to me sometimes.
You know I think sometimes'
if we had Spanish weather'
we'd never have had
The Troubles.
Although' that does
beg the question
of the Spanish Civil War.
Yeah' but that didn't last
30 years' did it?
Know why?
Weather was too nice.
They're giving us fuck all.
Patience is a virtue' Coity.
Have it if you can.
Found seldom in a woman'
and never in a man.
How long's it been?
Four months' two weeks'
three days.
They know.
You what?
They know.
They've known all along.
Look at it' Damo.
It's a pantomime.
Widow Twankey
and the Evil Queen.
And right now
I'm fucking Buttons.
You deserve a good time!
Come in' Helen.
Oh, have a seat.
Thoughts?
It was a disaster.
Go on.
There will be edited highlights
on social media.
It will be spun to say
we bottled in the protestors
deliberately'
making them sitting ducks.
Political policing.
Added to which' we knew nothing
about the protest'
the Dublin contingent' or
the people who attacked them.
We were
dangerously understaffed'
and those officers who
were injured would be justified
in coming after us
for compensation claims.
You made a lot of decisions
in the moment.
Big ones.
I understand if you want to
refer it upwards' ma'am.
I thought you were
..superb.
Thank you' ma'am.
I'm going to share some
information with you' Helen.
It's highly confidential.
The organisation is headed
for a major restructure.
Realignment of districts'
consolidation of assets.
I've been given the nod
to apply for the role
of Assistant Chief Constable.
Congratulations' ma'am.
I'm gonna need somebody I trust
at my side at headquarters.
I want that person to be you.
I don't know what to say' ma'am.
Well, usually that means you
don't yet know how to say no.
I appreciate the offer' ma'am'
I do.
But I've barely got my feet
under the table here.
I'm managing the uniform side
of Op Harvest
Which to date
has harvested what exactly?
Ma'am' there's been
a lot of changes for me
over the last couple of years
and I think
..right now'
I need to be here.
But that's the thing' Helen.
In a few months' time'
there may not be a here.
They're looking
at closing Blackthorn.
Sarge?
Looks nasty.
You want to get that checked.
Nah.
It's stopped bleeding.
See' that's the difference
between me and you.
Friggin' class.
Very good. Very good.
All call signs from
Control, Bronze is stood down.
Silver signing off.
Thank God for that.
Oh' yeah.
Hello.
Hello?
Yeah' no' that's me.
You what?
I passed?
I passed!
No. No' that's
No' thank you.
Thank you.
Don't tell anyone.
Course I'm not gonna
tell anyone.
OK' everybody' could youse
gather around' please?
I have an announcement to make!
Stevie!
I am pleased to report
that Constable Grace Ellis
is now officially
Detective Constable Grace Ellis!
Hip hip!
Hooray!
Hip hip!
Hooray!
Hip hip!
Hooray!
You dickhead.
Yeah' all right' get in' get in.
Come on!
This can't be real.
It can't be true. I mean
..we're already running
on a skeleton crew
and they want to close
a police station?
It's a numbers game.
How do you mean?
The quarterly crime stats.
Blackthorn is bottom
of the table.
The thinking is'
we consolidate our estate -
fewer stations'
doing a better job -
we can get those statistics
where they need to be.
They've made the decision?
Not quite. It's
in consultation. But' um
..it's clear which way
the wind is blowing.
It's madness.
It's life.
And you're the only one
who benefits.
Excuse me?
You move up' and we move out.
Was that the deal?
Are you suggesting?
That you would do anything
to get to the top table?
You're dismissed!
No. No!
Excuse me?
No. I am not going anywhere'
and neither is anybody else.
Oh, for God's sake
If you think I'm going to sit
on my arse and let
this organisation
destroy this station at the
stroke of a fucking keyboard'
you're sorely mistaken!
Like I said' this information
is highly confidential.
You breathe a word
Don't worry' ma'am. I am not
as stupid as you think I am.
Helen!
If it's a numbers game'
then fine.
Let's play a numbers game.
A few days off for McCloskey'
there.
I know. Flip me.
It looks bad' like.
Annie' Shane.
I need you to deliver this.
Yeah.
Amira Saeed?
Is that the?
Chairperson of
the migrant centre' yeah.
She's under threat?
Her name and face
are all over socials.
And not the good socials.
OK.
Er' what are we going to do
to help her?
We give her the leaflet.
Skipper
Annie' I know.
Just let me know
when it's delivered' yeah?
Right' I suppose
we'd better pick up a leaflet.
Fuck's sake.
You've got to be fucking joking!
I have no choice.
May I remind you'
you're supposed to be
supporting Op Harvest'
not skinning it alive!
District is priority.
I made that clear
in my submission.
Y-Your submission?
You went over my head?
In case you haven't noticed'
we have a racial violence
problem on our doorstep
and your department
dropped the ball on it today -
twice!
I need those TSGs
to tidy up your mess!
What in God's name's
going on with you?
This is a cartel, Helen!
A fucking cartel!
Mexico' Trinidad' Ireland' UK!
You know that!
And you know who's behind it.
Yeah' we know
and we can't prove' Coity.

This evening?
A High Court judge has ruled
that video surveillance showing
the murder of a police officer
can be shown
as part of a murder trial
starting next week.
Maurice McIntyre and
Anthony Donovan were present
when Constable Gerry Cliff
was shot dead in Belfast
almost three years ago.
Stop watching that shite.
Footage of the incident
believed to have been filmed
by an MI5 surveillance team
will now be played in court.
It's' er' from your da.
It's open.
Well, they do that.
He's' um wishing you
all the best for the trial.
Wishing me all the best.
Meaning keep my mouth shut.
What the fuck are you doing'
huh?
You're on bail. You're not
supposed to be drinking.
Not supposed to drink'
not supposed to go out'
not supposed to
..tell the truth!
Shut your fucking mouth'
you don't know who's listening.
Tell me. Tell me this.
When did it start for Da?
And for you?
Because you were in on it too.
You must have been.
So go on' tell me.
When did you first become
a fucking tout?
When you talk like that'
you're going to get yourself
fucking killed!
Get off me!
Killed by who?
By you?
Hmm?
You ready?
Let's just get this over with.
All right.
Yeah.
Yes?
Amira' do you mind
if we come in?
Can you tell me why?
We're here to deliver a form
called a TM1.
It's a notification of
an active threat against you
and possibly your home.
Er
From who? Who is it?
OK' so all we know
is what it says there.
What it says here is that
somebody means to do me harm.
Who?
I'm sorry' Amira'
that's all they tell us.
So what am I supposed to do?
Er
There's some security advice
in this.
Lock the doors?
pull the curtains?
You you can protect me'
though' right?
I mean' we can't physically
do that.
What do you mean
you can't physically do it?
Someone wants to hurt me
and you give me a leaflet?
Amira
Have you any idea
what it's like to be told this?
Have you any idea
what you're saying to me
right now?
Amira we can offer you
passing attention.
Passing attention?
Yes.
It's where we drive by
now and again'
we make sure everything's OK.
I live here by myself
Here.
What's this?
It's my personal phone number.
Annie
Listen.
If you call 999'
they won't send
an immediate call sign
unless there's actually
something happening outside'
and that's too late.
So if you see anything'
anything suspicious'
or if you're worried
about anything' just call me.
Any time' OK?
And if I'm not on shift'
I'll find someone who is.
What the actual fuck?
Just leave it' Shane.
Annie' your personal mobile?
Are you mad?!
I said fucking leave it.
OK?
Look' I get it. OK?
I get it. I'm not stupid.
Did you ever look into it?
Into what?
Well, you said
there was two other cops
got the same threat you did.
Did you ever find out more?
What's the point?
I can never go back home.
Two seconds.
Another bucket emptied.
You'll get there' Grace.
I thought I was there.
I suppose
this is how it happens.
How what happens?
How you lose faith.
You're not allowed to.
Why not?
Because if you lose faith'
we all do.
Come on.
Shall we go home?
Yeah.
Come on.
Yeah. Gerry loved his music.
He sure did.
Thank you.
It's not easy.
What isn't?
Losing someone.
However it happens.
The trial starts next week
and
..I'm gonna have to
give evidence'
cos I was the custody sergeant.
They're gonna ask me about him.
And even now
..I haven't got the words
for
..what he meant.
Can I give you some advice?
Turn up on time.
Go home on time.
Just do the job.
Until you feel
you can breathe again.
Maybe the job's the problem.
How do you mean?
Well, it gives you things.
Aisling.
Gerry.
And then it takes them away
ten times over.
I just feel
You feel what?
I just feel like
