the main road?

Er, nine.

How many of those can we use

as alternative routes?

Fi... six, l think.

Five.

Five or six, what does it matter?

lt matters.

Let's get back to the bridge

a different way.

You've got... six minutes.

What kind of recruiting?

Specialists?

All kinds, apparently.

Drivers.

- Electricians.

- Electricians?

Any names?

You know I never can

remember names.

Who's "the money"?

The talk is it's from that

diamond job.

Any more on that?

Had to be the mob we

were talking about.

None of them's spending.

And that's interesting,

isn't it, Mr Langdon?

Very interesting.

Keep listening.

Three-sixteen. Two minutes late.

We can't have that, can we?

Hmm, no.

What's the average?

lt's never more than six minutes...

...over the past ten days.

That was my smoke you took.

Smoke? l never 'ad your smoke!

Why don't you shut your

mouth or I'll...

- ...put one on you!

- You'll do what?

Hey!

Hey! Break it up!

Break it up there!

[SHOUTING AMONGST PRISONERS]

How much do you think there

is tonight, Bob?

lf you take three million

as an average...

...there could be four million tonight.

Judging by the number of sacks.

ls that high-value coach always

in second position?

Has been all week.

Have you found an engine

driver for me yet?

l've got one in mind.

Have we found out anything

about this, Jock?

Yes, sir.

Kidderminster Laboratories...

...confirmed it WAS one of...

...those stolen at the time of

the break-in last year.

The timing mechanism's

the kind of...

...thing you can buy

at most shops.

Any one of half a dozen specialists...

...could have rigged the

two together.

Which gets us nowhere.

Do you think the diamonds are

still in the country?

lfAitken's behind it? No.

- You've charged Jack?

- Yes.

- He's not speaking, of course?

- No!

l take it Number One District's...

...keeping an eye on the

Aitken mob?

Round the clock.

Frankly, I would have

thought this job...

...far too sophisticated for

Aitken on his own.

l couldn't agree more.

Who's behind it?

Somebody with some brains.

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

And not only that...

There's someone who's recruiting -

and only top specialists.

- Pretty strong rumours to that effect.

- [ON TELEPHONE] Yes?

lnformation received?

- Yes, sir.

- [ON TELEPHONE] It's positive?

Right, George - you keep on to this.

You'll get all the help...

- ...you need from Number One District.

- [ON TELEPHONE] Yes, he's here now. l'll tell him.

[ON TELEPHONE]

Well done, David.

lt's the Rosary Gardens strangling, sir.

Renshaw's at Harrow Road now and

he'll be charged tonight.

Water-tight?

Absolutely.

Well done, Mike.

Smart arrest by the young detective...
