warpath, and we're dealing with this storm.

This won't take a minute.

Could you email me the figures from

all the tide gauges south of Aberdeen?

- Can I ask why you need that information?

- Let's call it professional curiosity.

We can call it that.

I wouldn't ask for these figures

if I didn't need them.

Storms continue to wreak havoc

here in the Northeast.

Winds of 90 miles per hour

are being recorded along some

parts of this Scottish coast.

Yes, just hold for a moment.

The Chairman of the US Federal Bank.

Mr Moysoe, you're on speaker phone.

Arthur.

I'm sorry to hear about your casualties.

Why, I appreciate that, Arthur.

And I'll convey your sentiments

to the Prime Minister.

I'm sure you're aware the dollar has

dropped a further 40 points overnight.

Confidence has been lower here

since the storm damage in Maine.

And we have some big players

dumping some huge quantities of stock.

We could be facing a major meltdown.

I'm sorry to hear that,

but just at this moment we're trying

to deal with the human catastrophe.

I'm just calling to let you know

you could be facing an economic one too.

A couple of these guys

have started dumping UK stock.

It's having a ripple effect.

Thanks, Arthur. I'll talk to you later.

(Woman) Keep my office

informed of any barrier

operations connected to the

storm's progress. - Absolutely, ma'am.

Due to the high spring tide and

the storm damage in Scotland,

we are planning a precautionary closure.

But if anything comes up

I will certainly let you know.

Thanks.

Penny. Get me the Met Office.

Will do.

Commissioner, you have the

full cooperation of the Met Office.

- (Woman) I need to be kept informed

- I've emailed you the updates.

- Thank you. Thanks for your cooperation.

- Yeah. We're on top of everything.

- Professor, I'm a bit busy.

- (Leonard) Hear me out

Those figures you sent

me for the tide gauges...

- Yeah? - Don't you think

they're on the high side?

It's a storm surge. Nothing

unexpected given the circumstances.

I've fed the numbers into my computer model.

If the surge continues to

grow at this rate...

the entire east coast of England

could be in trouble.

Malcolm.

- What's the latest on the tidal gauges?

- Gotta go.

All right.

Thanks, Anna.

Hi, Sam.

What are you doing here?

Problem on Pier 1. No one else available.

Ah, right. Well, it'll do you

good to get your hands dirty.

- You're looking well.

- Thanks.

I hear business is good.

Anna still running things for you?

Well, nothing's changed.

- She gives the orders. I obey.

- Hm.

Nice flowers. And I know

it's not your birthday.

- I know. It's great, isn't it?

- Yeah, it's great.

- Does he know you hate roses?
