British sergeant Michael Stonebridge recruits help from Ex-Delta Force operative Damien Scott when Section 20 agent John Porter is kidnapped by a Pakistani terrorist. The two then uncover clues to a possible terrorist attack at a New Delhi hotel and race to foil it.

Top-secret SAS special ops unit Section 20 orders impeccable British sergeant Michael Stonebridge to recruit dishonorably discharged US sergeant Damien Scott. He's an incurable womanizer and poor gambler, but the only man who could help identify Pakistani terror brain Latif, whose men kidnapped private John Porter and executed him on video. The duo is teamed up with Pakistani secret service major Jamal Ashkani to track down Latif in Delhi. There a Pakistani force, masquerading as sports team, takes hostages in a hotel. The duo gets a reprieve from the Indian general in charge to find out who is Latif, what he came for and how to stop him, but the job complicates repeatedly while the body count rises


Episode 1

John Porter (Armitage) is kidnapped by Pakistani terrorist Latif, who is masterminding "Project Dawn". As Porter is one of only two westerners who can identify Latif, Section 20 head Colonel Eleanor Grant (Mealing) appoints Sergeant Michael Stonebridge (Winchester) to find the other; dishonourably discharged Delta Force operative Damian Scott (Stapleton), in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. When Scott is brought to London, Section 20 witness Porter's live execution. As the team mourn their loss, Scott realises that Porter used code in the execution video, directing the team to a hotel in New Delhi, India. Scott and Stonebridge's arrival is soon followed by a gang of terrorists, who hold everybody hostage and demand that someone named Mahmood reveals himself. Stonebridge and two of the hostages escape and meet with Scott; however, they find themselves surrounded when one of the hostages turns out to be the terrorist leader.

Episode 2

Scott and Stonebridge evade the terrorists and find Mahmood, who turns out to be a woman, Iman Zubedah (Sasha Behar). Zubedah reveals she knows the location of hidden weapons of mass destruction (WMD) that were to be planted in Iraq to vindicate the war. After Scott is recaptured and taken to the lobby with the other hostages, Zubedah is escorted out by the terrorist leader, assumed to be Latif (Scott earlier admits that he never actually saw him). Stonebridge rescues Zubedah and kills the leader. When the Indian military storm the hotel, Scott fails to stop the terrorists from dropping a bomb, but Stonebridge arrives in time to catch it. Zubedah is later brought to Pakistani intelligence officer Jamal Ashkani (Mistry), who is revealed to be Latif; Zubedah is later found dead. After Scott is assigned to Section 20, he reveals to Stonebridge that Porter's code was directed at Scott; Porter no longer trusted Section 20, believing it is embroiled in a conspiracy involving Latif, the WMDs, his capture, and Scott's dishonourable discharge. Scott and Stonebdrige decide to investigate the possible corruption.

Episode 3

Section 20 set up base in Cape Town, South Africa to track former Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) terrorist Daniel Connelly (Liam Cunningham), who is believed to be associated with Latif. Connelly and his gang rob an armoured truck, and clone a hard drive belonging to Kenneth Bratton's (Alistair Petrie) weapons company ATAT, which contains information on chemical weapons. Porter previously rescued Bratton from Iraq in 2003. Connelly also has Bratton's family watched in order to get him to cooperate. The gang hires Buckley, an American hacker, to break into the hard drive. However, as Scott and Stonebridge chase him, Stonebridge is forced to kill him, forcing Scott to pose as Buckley and lead Section 20 to Connelly. When Scott meets the gang however, they capture him and send him to a farm where they strap a bomb to him. Stonebridge soon arrives at the farm, but as he is about to move in, the bomb detonates.

Episode 4

It is revealed that Scott is alive; Connelly directed the bomb away from his body as a test to see if he would call for help. When he passes by not doing so, Scott is told he is to override the security system of Bratton's secure facility, with the help of the hard drive and Major Oliver Sinclair (Stone). Bratton calls Captain Kate Marshall (Birthistle) for help in his family's protection. Kate learns that ATAT was under pressure to plant VX nerve gas in Iraq. During the meeting, the two are kidnapped by Connolly's men. Stonebridge tracks her to the facility Scott was sent to hack into. Connelly gains access to a package of VX before killing Bratton. Though Scott and Stonebridge capture Connelly and confiscate the VX, they find Kate rigged with a bomb. Connelly promises to disarm it if they let him go, however he goes back on the deal and escapes, while Kate dies in the ensuing explosion. Grant later follows Connelly to Mozambique to execute him.

Episode 5

Section 20 capture Gerald Crawford (Iain Glen), a former Royal Marine-turned-arms dealer with ties to Latif, before making a sale. However, Crawford reveals the weapons were supposed to be an exchange for his daughter, Doctor Claire Somersby (Laura Haddock), who was kidnapped by the Janjaweed (a tribe of armed rebels) from an aid hospital in Darfur, Sudan. Section 20 agrees to rescue her, so long Crawford provides information on Latif's whereabouts. When he and the team arrive in Khartoum, Scott learns from Maggie (Rachel Shelley), a journalist he once slept with, that Crawford has accomplices who are following the exchange and will kill anybody in their way. During the exchange, they and Section 20 kill the Janjaweed members, but chieftain Tahir (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) escapes with Claire again. Scott is shot in the spleen by Crawford's men before they too are killed. As Maggie and Sinclair take Scott to a hospital, Crawford, Stonebridge and Jacoub (Abdul Salis), Maggie's driver whose family was a casualty of the Janjaweed, decide to follow Claire.

Episode 6

Scott and Sinclair are arrested at the hospital, though Grant later secures their release when the politician behind the arrest is loyal to Tahir. Meanwhile, Stonebridge is in "self-destruct mode" after Kate's death, and Crawford attempts to get him to focus. He also reveals that there is a British spy working for Latif, but would not divulge the name until Claire is safe. They soon find the Janjaweed camp; a local woman kills herself with a grenade to stop the Janjaweeds from raping her, allowing a distraction for Stonebridge to rescue Claire. However, they still have to drive back to Khartoum with the Janjaweed hot on their trial. Crawford is later shot by government forces. While they attempt to save him, their vehicle breaks down, and they are forced to fight Tahir's men. All the Janjaweed, and Tahir, are killed by the time Grant arrives, but Crawford dies from his injuries, but not before telling Claire the spy's name.

Episode 7

Grant has a female officer and psychologist, Marianna (Natalia Avelon), seduce Scott in an effort to learn more about him. Meanwhile, a minibus in Kosovo with five European Union officials is hijacked by Albanian terrorist and drug, human and organ trafficker Hassani (Mel Raido). He demands the release of his cousin, Rana, from Vienna, Austria. Grant controversially allows it, because one of the hostages is MI6 agent John Allen (Adrian Rawlins), Latif's spy. During the exchange however, an unknown gunman kills Rana, forcing Scott and Stonebridge to rescue the hostages. Furthermore the rescue helicopter at the pick up point fails to arrive, forcing the group to find another location. When their truck runs out of petrol, Scott and Stonebridge attempt to steal another from Hassani's fortified heroin factory. A United States Army patrol later arrives to pick them up, however it is revealed the soldiers are loyal to Hassani; Scott, Stonebridge and the hostages are taken to his stronghold.

Episode 8

Scott and Stonebridge learn that Allen is actually a double agent working to keep track on Latif's plans. Later, the hostages are taken in two separate transports, where the males are taken for organ harvesting, and the females for sex slavery. However, Scott finds that one of the American soldiers secretly gave him a gun to organise an escape. Following the escape, they search for the camp holding the female hostages. On the way they encounter Hassani's men; Stonebridge stays behind to fight them off while the rest journey on to the other camp, however one of the hostages dies while running through a mine field. Meanwhile Hassani meets with Latif and Allen at the camp; Latif then has Allen and Hassani killed after they hand over intelligence on a weapons bunker in Chechnya. After Scott liberates the camp and rescues a captured Stonebridge, the hostages are taken to safety.

Episode 9

Stonebridge learns that his wife Kerry (Moen) is pregnant, and she is forcing him to choose between her and his job. In the meantime, Section 20 find that eight people entered a weapons bunker in Chechnya, but none have since left. Scott and Stonebridge are sent there with the hope of capturing Latif. However, they find no one inside because there is an exit tunnel. Following orders to retrieve all computers, the Georgian Commandos set off a booby-trap, trapping Scott and Stonebridge in the tunnel. They journey through the tunnel system and find labs where Latif's scientists were working on VX delivery systems. They follow Latif's men to a nearby town, only to find themselves ambushed and forced to retreat. They do, however, believe that Latif intends to detonate containers of VX against civilian targets. Scott learns that Grant used Marianna to profile him. Section 20 then learns that Latif intends to attack a World Summit in Budapest, Hungary, and sets up base there. They follow a suspicious van to a warehouse; Scott and Stonebridge go there, and capture Latif.

Episode 10

As Grant interrogates Latif, Section 20 spots two known terrorists arriving in Budapest. Scott and Stonebridge catch the first, who detonates the VX container placed inside his body in a tram; Scott and Stonebridge evacuate the area. On their return, Latif has sent a strike team to the Section base, and they ambush it; Latif escapes and captures Grant, along with Akmal Ramiz (Silas Carson), a Pakistani presidential candidate from the summit. Stonebridge is assigned to identify the second suicide bomber in a protest crowd, while Scott follows Grant's GPS. Latif forces Grant or Ramiz to confess to "Operation Trojan Horse", which dealt with planting VX in Iraq, setting up Porter and framing Scott that lead to his dishonourable discharge. Stonebridge stops the second bomber, but Latif remotely activates the canister; Stonebridge is able to remove and disarm it. Meanwhile, Latif kills Ramiz after Grant wishes to confess. He later realises that Scott is nearby and takes Grant hostage. However Grant, no longer wishing to live with her guilt, forces Latif to shoot the VX canister she has in her possession, killing them both. Scott, now knowing he could clear his name, decides to burn the file instead, believing Grant did give him a second chance. Stonebridge decides to leave.
