:29:03
Hello, sir.
:29:04
I'll take you in
to see the Brigadier now.

:29:09
Chief Superintendent Lagan, Sir.
:29:11
Hello, Frank.
:29:12
Morning, Patrick.
:29:13
I don't think you've met
Major General Ford

:29:15
Commander of Land Forces.
:29:16
Sir, this is
Chief Superintendent Lagan

:29:18
Londonderry Division.
:29:19
Sir.
:29:21
Superintendent, I've heard
a great deal about you

:29:23
from your Chief Constable.
:29:24
It's time for us to go.
:29:25
We're going to shake some hands.
:29:27
I, um, heard from the march
organizers earlier today.

:29:29
Sir, um, I heard from the civil
rights leaders earlier today

:29:32
and spoke to them
early this morning.

:29:34
Oh, really?
:29:35
Yes, they're anxious
to avoid a confrontation.

:29:36
They're not going to march
to the Guildhall.

:29:38
They're going to stay
within the Bogside, they say.

:29:40
Oh. So useful to have contacts
in the community.

:29:42
Maurice.
:29:43
Unless he's a Roman Catholic,
of course.

:29:46
What's that all about, Patrick?
:29:49
Patrick?
:29:51
What's that all about?
:29:53
It'll be low-key.
:29:56
Low-key.
:29:58
The Paras low-key?
:29:59
Yes, I know, I know.
:30:00
Excuse me, sir.
:30:02
All call signs are now in place
:30:03
and the Paras have confirmed
the cha cha.

:30:06
Thank you, Charles.
:30:07
The Paras aren't
a low-key regiment.

:30:09
Listen, they're the best
:30:11
for the kind
of mass arrest operation

:30:13
that we've got
to carry out today.

:30:15
You listen to me.
:30:16
I know the people of Derry.
:30:17
And you know that I've spent
the last three years of my life

:30:20
trying to keep a lid
on the trouble in this city.

:30:21
Frank, you don't need
to tell me this.

:30:23
Look, why do we need to ban
this march in the first place?

:30:25
Why? To keep a crowd
:30:27
of Protestant politicians
in Stormont

:30:29
hanging onto power
by their fingertips, that's why.

:30:31
I mean, they're the reason
:30:32
why we're in this mess
in the first place.

:30:34
Look, why not
just let the march go ahead?

:30:37
Look, if you want prosecutions
:30:39
why not take photographs
of the ringleaders?

:30:45
Sir, the General's leaving
:30:47
and would like a word
before you go.

:30:50
Thank you, Sergeant Major.
:30:52
Frank, I'm sorry.
:30:53
It's out of my hands.
