00:00:00The End
00:00:30Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:01:00Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:01:09The game's up, Llewellyn. I arrest you for the murder of John Russell and Mary McClure at 150 Liberal Street, Liverpool, on the night of January 1st, 1935.
00:01:16I have to warn you that anything you say, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
00:01:20I've been after you for five years for this, and I may say that this is the moment that affords me the greatest personal pleasure, just as I was waiting for the handcuffs.
00:01:28Just a minute, Chief. How many L's are in Llewellyn?
00:01:31Four.
00:01:32Would you be told we've only got as far as Llewellyn?
00:01:35I've only got two fingers.
00:01:36Now, Mr. Pittman, never passed you out. I'm blowed if I know.
00:01:39Inspector Brobe. Inspector Brobe, we needn't.
00:01:41No.
00:01:43Then, throwing caution to the winds,
00:01:45I leapt on him single-handed.
00:01:48Single-handed?
00:01:49Well, go on. You know how to spell single-handed, don't you?
00:01:52Yes, but you weren't single-handed, Chief.
00:01:54I was with you.
00:01:54Well, it's as good as being single-handed.
00:01:56Yes, but it was me that leapt on him.
00:01:59From behind.
00:02:00Look here. Whose life story is this?
00:02:02Yours, Chief.
00:02:04I mean, fair's fair.
00:02:05After all, I've given you the best years of my life,
00:02:07and the only time you've mentioned me up to page 298
00:02:10was that time when the bulldog tore a piece out of my trousers.
00:02:13Well, that showed your true advantage, didn't it?
00:02:15Anyway, will this satisfy you?
00:02:17Ten minutes later, help arrived in the shape of Sergeant Bingham,
00:02:20and the Saffron gang was finally rounded up.
00:02:23Thanks, Chief.
00:02:24Not that you did make any difference.
00:02:26Well, now we come to the last chapter.
00:02:28We'll leave that blank for the moment,
00:02:29but we'll hit it the fifth column.
00:02:32The fifth column?
00:02:33That's what I said.
00:02:35But you haven't had anything to do with the fifth column?
00:02:37No, but I'm going to.
00:02:39Listen to this.
00:02:40The Minister of Home Security today assured the government
00:02:43that the best brains in Scotland Yard
00:02:45will shortly be engaged to combat the menace
00:02:48of the fifth column in this country.
00:02:49Here, my boy, Inspector Hornley's next case.
00:02:52Yes, but it hasn't even mentioned it, Chief.
00:02:55No, but it says the best brains, and that narrows it down.
00:02:58Let's see, there's Jenkins in Yorkshire, Brown in Ireland.
00:03:00That leaves...
00:03:02Morning, Inspector Blue.
00:03:04Good morning.
00:03:05Still working on the life story for tidbits, I see.
00:03:09I thought of a good title for it yesterday.
00:03:11Oh?
00:03:12Yes.
00:03:12Whopping Tales of the Yard.
00:03:16I'll treat that remark with a contempt it deserves.
00:03:19Anything else, Chief?
00:03:20No.
00:03:21There's an unsympathetic influence in the room.
00:03:23Well, I'll just head up the new fifth column chapter,
00:03:24and then I'll leave it at that, eh?
00:03:26Fifth column?
00:03:28How does fifth column figure in the fairy tales?
00:03:31It hasn't yet, but it's going to, eh?
00:03:32Oh, and who said you were going to be assigned to the fifth column case?
00:03:39A little Dickie Bird.
00:03:40Oh, I should bring that little Dickie Bird's neck if I were you,
00:03:42because he's singing the wrong tune.
00:03:44I suppose you think you're going to get the job, eh?
00:03:46Never mind, Hornley.
00:03:48Anyway, how could they waste a man like you on a job like that?
00:03:52Why not?
00:03:52Well, who's going to take care of the bottle parties?
00:03:55Well, I'll practically clean those up, you know that?
00:03:56Yeah, with the exception of the one where Bingham goes every night.
00:04:00Well, he hasn't found any evidence yet?
00:04:01No, but he's found a nice little fan down, sir.
00:04:04Who?
00:04:06Is that right?
00:04:08No, it's not.
00:04:09Inspector Hornley.
00:04:10Yeah?
00:04:11The commissioner wants you.
00:04:12Oh?
00:04:14He's got half the army high command with him.
00:04:16Has he, though?
00:04:18Oh.
00:04:19Well, I shouldn't worry, blow old men.
00:04:21You'll have plenty of time to spare.
00:04:23I'll hand over that joint for you to clean up.
00:04:26And if you talk to Bingham nicely, he might give you her phone number.
00:04:30Oh, Bingham.
00:04:31Sir?
00:04:32You can leave in that bit about the fifth column.
00:04:34Later, Archie.
00:04:37The fact is, this petty scrounging has reached such proportions that it's costing the army thousands a year.
00:04:42What we've got to do is to set an example.
00:04:45If we can catch one or two other culprits, it'll have a salutary effect on the others.
00:04:49Now.
00:04:49Who's that for me, sir?
00:04:53Hello, Brigadier Lloyd, Major Harvey of the War Office, Inspector Hornley.
00:04:55How do you do, gentlemen?
00:04:56I've got a rather unusual case for you, Hornley.
00:04:59The War Office is concerned over certain army activities which are proving rather more widespread than we imagine.
00:05:05Now, what we thought.
00:05:06I think I know what you mean, sir.
00:05:07Oh?
00:05:08Well, one reads the papers.
00:05:10Well, the papers only touch on the fringe of it, I'm afraid.
00:05:12Quite.
00:05:12But a detective can read between the lanes.
00:05:15I'm glad you appreciate this importance.
00:05:16As I was telling the commissioner, this is not just a case of a few tins of strawberry jam.
00:05:21Eh?
00:05:21This sort of thing's going on in camps all over the country, you know.
00:05:24I beg your pardon?
00:05:25These depredations from army stores.
00:05:27Depred?
00:05:28Scrounging, Hornley.
00:05:30Scrounging?
00:05:31But do you mean to say this has nothing to do with the fifth column?
00:05:33Fifth column?
00:05:34Whatever put that into your head?
00:05:36Inspector Blow was assigned to that case last week.
00:05:38Blow?
00:05:39As an ex-officer, it shouldn't be difficult for you to get into the run of things again.
00:05:42Are you listening, Hornley?
00:05:44The idea is that you should join the army.
00:05:47What, me?
00:05:48Yes.
00:05:49What, at my age?
00:05:50After all my years of...
00:05:51Temporarily, of course.
00:05:52We'll do our best to see you're comfortable.
00:05:54Well, it's more than I was last time.
00:05:56Still, if you're offering me a commission...
00:05:57I'm afraid that is hardly the idea.
00:06:00By joining the ranks and mixing with the men,
00:06:02you'll have a better chance of contacting the offenders.
00:06:05The ranks?
00:06:07It's true.
00:06:07Come on, come on, step out.
00:06:21What's the matter with you?
00:06:22Tired out.
00:06:23Well, we're all tired out.
00:06:24We're not grumbling about it?
00:06:25I've been carrying these things for the last six miles.
00:06:29By the time there was a changeover.
00:06:32All right.
00:06:32We'll have a changeover.
00:06:33Okay?
00:06:34Put the gun on your right shoulder.
00:06:36That'll leave your left hand free to carry the other stuff.
00:06:39I'm going to resign.
00:06:40You're not.
00:06:42You've been put on this job and you're going to stick it out.
00:06:45So what have we done on the case?
00:06:46We've been ten days here marching, drilling in Dublin.
00:06:49And all good to show for these blistered fields and fallen arches.
00:06:53Well, you'll have to prop up your arches, my lad.
00:06:55It's Kandahar Day tomorrow.
00:06:58It's Kandahar Day.
00:06:59A field day.
00:07:01A 12-mile march with full pack.
00:07:03Qualify a three-mile attack over open country.
00:07:05Then some bombing and bayonet work.
00:07:07And if we're lucky, a band of players home to bayonet.
00:07:11I won't do it.
00:07:13I won't do it.
00:07:14British Army or no British Army, I'm going sick.
00:07:17You'll do nothing of the sort.
00:07:18If you start going south now, you'll give the game away.
00:07:21Yes, please.
00:07:21If I can stick it, you can.
00:07:23And if you go sick, you'll have more than the British Army to answer to.
00:07:26You'll have to answer to me.
00:07:27Going sick.
00:07:28You blokes for the sick parade, file in here.
00:07:38Go, go, go, go.
00:08:08Come along now.
00:08:19On parade, you.
00:08:20Double up.
00:08:22What's the matter?
00:08:24Well, I don't think I feel very well, Sergeant.
00:08:27In fact, I think I'll go sick.
00:08:29You can't go sick now.
00:08:30Seven o'clock in the morning is time to go sick.
00:08:32Get on parade.
00:08:33Run along now.
00:08:34You heard what the day, Sergeant, said.
00:08:39Privately.
00:08:40Coming.
00:08:43Come down.
00:08:45Come.
00:08:46Well, what's the matter with you?
00:08:48It's my blistering feet, sir.
00:08:50I've worn the tread off them.
00:08:52And when Lord Roberts made his historic march to Kandahar, it was a proud boast of this regiment that not a man fell out.
00:09:01Today is the anniversary of that great event.
00:09:05And in view of the excellent march you carried out yesterday, I propose to celebrate today by granting leave to the whole regiment till midnight.
00:09:15Great!
00:09:16Two beers, please.
00:09:41Two beers?
00:09:42Yes, I'm having one for a sick frame.
00:09:44Oh, well.
00:09:50Here's one to be going on with.
00:09:53Oh, you're not notice of that.
00:09:54Down note on a Friday.
00:09:56Gentleman of things, eh?
00:09:57What do you think?
00:09:58Well, um, hooky brett.
00:10:02Certainly not.
00:10:05I suppose now I have to tell you that I was one of those chaps that scrounged stuff out of army stores and sell it outside.
00:10:09Go on, you're having me on.
00:10:11I said, supposing, have you been many of them in here?
00:10:14Can't say I've met anyone.
00:10:16Just wondering.
00:10:17There's a lot of scrounging going on, you know.
00:10:19So I hear.
00:10:20Why they don't do something about it beats me.
00:10:22Perhaps they are.
00:10:23The military police?
00:10:24Not them.
00:10:26They catch his drunks.
00:10:28Found this stuff, lit it all over the floor.
00:10:30How much is missing?
00:10:31Can't say yet, but it's all new stuff, though.
00:10:33Only came in yesterday.
00:10:34None of it issued, eh?
00:10:35That should help.
00:10:37Consignment of pants, all sizes.
00:10:40Tin pilchards.
00:10:41Ever had that brand before?
00:10:42No.
00:10:43Hey, what's it got to do with you?
00:10:45Yes, what are you doing here, anyway?
00:10:46Uh, reportable light due to the medical officer.
00:10:49Keep your nose out of things that don't concern you.
00:10:51Count up what's left in those cases.
00:10:52And don't make any mistakes.
00:10:54Very good, sir.
00:10:54Brewing sauce.
00:10:58Right.
00:11:01Did you get any time off?
00:11:03After we close, till we open again.
00:11:05What about taking a punt and having a watercress tea with me up there?
00:11:08You're not backward and coming forward, are you?
00:11:10Oh, I mean, what do you say?
00:11:11All right, then.
00:11:13I'll pass two outside.
00:11:14That's a deed.
00:11:15But in one condition.
00:11:16What's that?
00:11:16Would you let me pay my share?
00:11:18Yes.
00:11:19Yes.
00:11:20I'm just...
00:11:21What's been to you?
00:11:46I'm a marvellous stein, Chief.
00:11:48I'm going to have to do your last, eh?
00:11:49Yes, yes.
00:11:53Not bad, eh?
00:11:55One is six for three.
00:11:57To Baldy.
00:11:58With love from Daisy.
00:12:02Take them to the pictures tomorrow.
00:12:04It's a half day.
00:12:05My father's a Presbyterian, too.
00:12:08My father keeps an arm on yourself.
00:12:09Now, listen, I don't want to hear our life, listen to me.
00:12:11While you've been making yourself ridiculous, I've been getting on with the job.
00:12:14And now you can help me.
00:12:15I'm on to something.
00:12:16Yeah?
00:12:16Here's some salvers of stuff that was pinched last night.
00:12:20Now, if we can find any of it around here, we'll know who knocked it off.
00:12:23Yes, but they might have come back innocently.
00:12:24Well, the stuff hasn't been issued yet.
00:12:26Now, come on, step lightly before they come back.
00:12:27Now, you know what you're looking for?
00:12:29Gents underpants large size, filtrits and carbolic soap.
00:12:32Now, you take this slide.
00:12:33Okay, Chief.
00:12:34I've been through the hut next door, but I drew a blank.
00:12:40I thought it was understood that we were only pretending to do this.
00:13:06Yes, we understood and the colonel understood.
00:13:08The sergeant made it a bit slow in the uptake.
00:13:11Don't worry, a plain head.
00:13:14Give me your hand, Chief, you clumsy flatfoot.
00:13:21Come on.
00:13:22There's only eight more.
00:13:31Morning, Harley.
00:13:33Still looking for clues, eh?
00:13:35Ooh.
00:13:36Ooh.
00:13:38I always said there were no flies on, Hornley, but...
00:13:41Oh, I take all that back now.
00:13:43What are you doing down here?
00:13:44Come away from your clues and I'll tell you.
00:13:47Have you come down here to make trouble?
00:13:49I've come down here to see you two.
00:13:51Us?
00:13:51You mean you want us to help you with your case?
00:13:53I do.
00:13:54Why?
00:13:55Because there are certain things, Hornley, of which you have special knowledge.
00:13:59I never expected you to admit that blow.
00:14:01We knew they'd get into a mess as soon as we left the yard.
00:14:04What's your difficulty?
00:14:05We're very busy, you know.
00:14:06I can appreciate it.
00:14:07I can appreciate that.
00:14:09Well, we discovered that information is being coded to Germany.
00:14:15Well, nothing unusual in that, is there?
00:14:17Shortwave transmitter, I suppose.
00:14:18Yes, and what is more, we've discovered the code.
00:14:22And now all that's missing is the shortwave transmitter and the blokes who are running it.
00:14:25That's right, but unfortunately they never broadcast from the same place twice.
00:14:28What do you want us to do?
00:14:30Consult the stars for you?
00:14:31Well, no, I'm not interested in your usual methods of solving crime.
00:14:35What I want to know is how they got hold of a certain piece of information when there were only half a dozen people in the know.
00:14:40Well?
00:14:40And you were two of them.
00:14:41Us?
00:14:42Yes, listen to this.
00:14:45Among other interesting items broadcast to Germany last night was this tidbit.
00:14:49Two Scotland Yard men named Inspector Hornley and Sergeant Bingham are now carrying out secret investigations at Huplo Camp.
00:14:57What do you mean to say that's been sent back to Germany?
00:14:59It has, and I want to know who's been doing the unveiling.
00:15:02Now, let's get this straight.
00:15:04Are you accusing me of a breach of confidence?
00:15:06I'm not accusing you of anything.
00:15:08I'm just making inquiries.
00:15:10Well, it amounts to the same thing.
00:15:12If anybody's been talking, it's certainly not me.
00:15:14Well, I'll take your word for it, Hornley.
00:15:15And what about you, Bingham?
00:15:16Have you been talking in your sleep?
00:15:19Did I take exception to that remark?
00:15:20So do I.
00:15:21And once more, I object to you coming down here criticizing my staff.
00:15:24I'm not criticizing your staff.
00:15:25It's beyond criticism.
00:15:27I'm asking a simple question.
00:15:29Well, you had the answer.
00:15:30Just because some brass head shoots off his mouth in his club, you try to pin it on Bingham.
00:15:34He's worked for me for 15 years, and I know that he's incapable of doing such a thing.
00:15:37All right.
00:15:38All right.
00:15:38I must explore every avenue.
00:15:40Will you explore some avenue down White Hallway?
00:15:42Yes, and don't leave any stones unturned.
00:15:45Okay.
00:15:46Hello.
00:15:51Come on, now.
00:15:52Who did you tell?
00:15:54Me?
00:15:55Oh, now, here, Chief, you don't think that I...
00:15:56Yes, I do think.
00:15:57Come on, now.
00:15:57How about it?
00:15:58Who was it?
00:15:58Well, it was that wee lassie, Daisy.
00:16:04I might have guessed it.
00:16:05But she's a nice girl, Chief.
00:16:06They're all nice girls.
00:16:07Marta Hari was a nice girl.
00:16:10Well, what did you tell this bird?
00:16:11Nothing, Chief.
00:16:13She guessed.
00:16:14Don't lie to me.
00:16:14But it's true, Chief.
00:16:15She said that I looked like a detective.
00:16:18Well, that's the biggest lie of the lot.
00:16:19I don't mind your laughing at my expense, but I tell you that Daisy's absolutely innocent.
00:16:22What, after going out with you in a punt?
00:16:24Well, I suppose she's innocent.
00:16:26She can still talk.
00:16:27No, no, no, no.
00:16:28Not Daisy.
00:16:29What is she?
00:16:30A barmaid.
00:16:30God love me.
00:16:31Why, they're public information bureaus.
00:16:34Oh, by the way, did I hear you say you were taking her to the pictures this afternoon?
00:16:39I was until you landed me into this maze.
00:16:41Well, you're still taking her.
00:16:43I'll fix it up with the colonel.
00:16:44You mean that I can...
00:16:45What do you want me to do?
00:16:47Well, ask her who she passed the glad news onto, of course.
00:16:50Yeah, that would be very awkward, Chief.
00:16:52It would be more awkward if you don't.
00:16:54I've been in the trees for so long.
00:16:57How could I hope to be a success in New York?
00:17:00Can't I teach you, Lalo?
00:17:01The bottle becomes more low, and more will be open.
00:17:05Every night at the sunset, I can move to the leaves for the lullaby.
00:17:09It's singing now, Lalo.
00:17:13Is he?
00:17:14Yes, Percy?
00:17:17Gosh, I was longing for you to call the type gentleman, please, this afternoon.
00:17:21Were you there?
00:17:22Don't you look lovely in her saddle?
00:17:28That's half as lovely as you'd look at one, Daisy.
00:17:30I think so.
00:17:32This picture.
00:17:34Bending over the beer pools.
00:17:36Come on.
00:17:37What would the customer say?
00:17:39Daisy?
00:17:40What?
00:17:41I remember when I told you yesterday about me and another chap, or the vehicle from Scotland Yard.
00:17:57Well?
00:17:59You didn't kind of mention it to anybody, did you?
00:18:02Of course I didn't.
00:18:04Hey, what are you getting at?
00:18:07Nothing, Daisy.
00:18:08I know you're not the sort to chatter, but...
00:18:11Well, somebody's been talking.
00:18:13Are you hinting that I've been speaking out of turn?
00:18:18Say, you, I said somebody.
00:18:20Well, you meant me.
00:18:21Here, here, a little order, please.
00:18:23You've got no right to go making suggestions like that.
00:18:25Let me tell you, I've got enough to do in my job without gossiping.
00:18:28Yes, yes, I know that, Daisy.
00:18:31But you better pass it on, innocent life.
00:18:33I did not.
00:18:34Here, here, turn it up, will you?
00:18:35You're not in the bar of the Rosencrown now, you know.
00:18:37No, I don't think not.
00:18:39There you are, you see?
00:18:40This is all your fault.
00:18:41Go in.
00:18:42Why?
00:18:43Now, you take your hands off me, you insulted beast.
00:18:45Quiet, quiet.
00:18:50What's going on along here?
00:18:51Don't blame me, blame him.
00:18:57Hey, you, come on out.
00:19:00No, none of them, they're here.
00:19:02I assure you, there's been none of them.
00:19:06Come on, you heard what he said.
00:19:07Don't blame him.
00:19:08You're a perfect nuisance.
00:19:10Well, they can't write out.
00:19:11See a monkey check.
00:19:13Can I help it if my sister becomes hysterical?
00:19:15Oh, come on.
00:19:15Good afternoon, Miss Johnson.
00:19:28Good afternoon.
00:19:33I'd like to see Mr. Wilkinson.
00:19:34You didn't make an appointment, did you?
00:19:36No, but one of my back teeth is aching again.
00:19:38Something awful.
00:19:39I think you'll find that quite all right.
00:19:40I shouldn't bite on it for a couple of hours, though.
00:19:45Miss Johnson, I don't remember making...
00:19:47No, Mr. Wilkinson, it's my back tooth again.
00:19:49You must look at it.
00:19:51I see.
00:19:51Would you mind, madam?
00:19:52I won't give you one moment.
00:19:53Quite all right.
00:19:54Very well.
00:19:55Please step inside.
00:19:58Charles?
00:19:58I've laid out your dinner jacket.
00:20:02Don't forget, you're dining at the club at eight.
00:20:04Oh, yes.
00:20:04I'm going over to Penrith to have dinner with Mrs. Sherwood.
00:20:07We'll probably pay boots.
00:20:08I may not be back till eight.
00:20:09Goodbye, my dear.
00:20:10Don't forget to black out.
00:20:11I expect you'll be in first.
00:20:13I won't forget.
00:20:21Why have you come here today?
00:20:22Your next appointment was Tuesday.
00:20:24Do you want that girl to suspect?
00:20:25I had to come.
00:20:26He's rumbled.
00:20:26Who?
00:20:27That yard man, Bingham, that I was telling you about.
00:20:30Did you pass it on?
00:20:31Of course.
00:20:32Well, they found out somehow.
00:20:33He questioned me this afternoon and said someone had been talking.
00:20:36Phew, I'm scared stiff.
00:20:38Where is he now?
00:20:39I left him in the pictures.
00:20:40You sure he didn't follow you?
00:20:41Positive.
00:20:42What am I going to do?
00:20:43Supposing they come and question me?
00:20:44Deny everything.
00:20:45They have no evidence.
00:20:46And don't come here again.
00:20:48I'll contact you as soon as it blows over.
00:20:50Yes, but...
00:20:50Now look here.
00:20:51Pull yourself together.
00:20:52There's nothing to be afraid of.
00:20:54Come on.
00:20:57It often aches like that after filling, you know.
00:21:00It'll be quite all right tomorrow, believe me.
00:21:01I hope so.
00:21:05Now, madam, if you please.
00:21:07Come along, Yvonne.
00:21:08It's nearly six o'clock.
00:21:15Have I an appointment with this gentleman?
00:21:16No, sir.
00:21:17But he was anxious to wait and the off chance of seeing you.
00:21:19May bridge work needs overhauling.
00:21:21And I wondered if...
00:21:22I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't manage it now.
00:21:23My hours are three to six.
00:21:25And I have an engagement this evening.
00:21:26Well, now, perhaps I could come back later.
00:21:28I'm sorry.
00:21:29My engagement is for the whole evening.
00:21:31Besides, I never see patients out of hours.
00:21:32Oh.
00:21:33If that's your attitude, I take my business elsewhere.
00:21:36There are plenty of other dentists in the town who'll be only too glad to do a little
00:21:39bridge work after six o'clock.
00:21:41Good day to you, sir.
00:21:48How do you know there's no one at home?
00:21:50He told me he had an engagement.
00:21:52There's also a Mrs. Dentist, but she's out playing bridge.
00:21:55Any servants?
00:21:56One.
00:21:56Female.
00:21:57I went round the back and checked up.
00:22:00You're not the only one who's a success with women.
00:22:02I made an appointment to meet her at the Pellet of Donald's tonight.
00:22:05Yeah.
00:22:07First got rid of her.
00:22:08Sounds a very mean trick to me.
00:22:10Well, she was married.
00:22:11But so is her right.
00:22:12Ah.
00:22:13This is it.
00:22:13Now, let's see what's over here.
00:22:41Oh, let's go.
00:22:42There's this part of the book.
00:22:58We'll have a look at that.
00:23:01Still don't seem why you should suspect Daisy, just because you got two things when you left
00:23:05me.
00:23:05I agree.
00:23:06It'll be a natural emotion.
00:23:07What's her surname?
00:23:09Johnson.
00:23:09Johnson.
00:23:10And you shot your mouth off to her yesterday lunchtime.
00:23:13But she couldn't have seen him yesterday.
00:23:15She was on the river with me until five o'clock.
00:23:18And at five thirty she visits the dentist.
00:23:20Look for yourself.
00:23:21Every time she sees you, she rushes straight to the dentist.
00:23:24But there's any number of ways of explaining that, Chief.
00:23:27There's only two I know of.
00:23:30Either she's what I think she is, or the way you kiss and knock their teeth in.
00:23:32Yeah.
00:23:35She was here twice last week.
00:23:37Once the week before.
00:23:39Three times the week before that.
00:23:42Yes.
00:23:42Fair call weather is used to come pretty often, too.
00:23:45And Mrs. Crofter.
00:23:47There's your Daisy again.
00:23:50Supposing you're right.
00:23:51You can't prove anything with that book.
00:23:53Well, we might find something in that safe to tie up with it.
00:23:55What safe?
00:23:56Over there.
00:24:00The twin lock, Hector.
00:24:02Easy.
00:24:06There's a burglar alarm while I'm running around the rim.
00:24:10Kite.
00:24:10There you go.
00:24:35That little fellow won't talk.
00:24:36All right.
00:24:40Here comes him after you've got the wrong wire.
00:24:45It's a doorbell.
00:24:49The dentist.
00:24:50Maybe he's forgotten his key.
00:24:52Why should he ring?
00:24:53He knows there's nobody at home.
00:24:54Here, go and see who it is.
00:24:56But suppose...
00:24:57Go on, go on, go on.
00:24:58Go on.
00:25:10Is your name Wilkinson?
00:25:17No.
00:25:18Mine's Blankensop.
00:25:19Who?
00:25:20I want to see Mr. Wilkinson.
00:25:21Why?
00:25:22Why?
00:25:22What do you think I come to the dentist for?
00:25:24I have a haircut.
00:25:24I want a tooth out.
00:25:26Eh?
00:25:26Oh, I'm afraid that's impossible.
00:25:28Oh, don't talk so down.
00:25:30Sorry, but at this time of night...
00:25:31I've been in bed and fast asleep.
00:25:32I'm not raging too big.
00:25:34I said I'm not going till I see the dentist here.
00:25:36Come on, fetch him out.
00:25:41Well, now, if you'll just sit down for a minute, I'll...
00:25:44I'll make some inquiries.
00:25:46All right, but look sharp.
00:25:47Well, it's a patient, Chief.
00:25:56It says he wants a tooth out.
00:25:58What, at this time?
00:25:59Perhaps he's one of the agents.
00:26:01It doesn't look like one.
00:26:02Well, how do you know?
00:26:03Take him in the surgery and numb him.
00:26:05How?
00:26:06Well, it says that you're Wilkinson's assistant.
00:26:08That you're in his confidence.
00:26:10Yes, but I think it really does want a tooth out.
00:26:12Well, you never know.
00:26:13Perhaps he's bluffing.
00:26:14Go and find out.
00:26:17Well...
00:26:20Well, I'm sorry, but Mr. Wilkinson's asleep.
00:26:24I can't help...
00:26:24It's all right.
00:26:25I'm his assistant.
00:26:26And anything you wish to have out, you can have out with me.
00:26:31All right, that suits me.
00:26:32Well, where's surgery?
00:26:34Surgery.
00:26:34Yes.
00:26:35Is this it?
00:26:36Here, come on.
00:26:36Yes.
00:26:36Let's just sit.
00:26:41Well, come on.
00:26:41Don't hang about.
00:26:46Here, pick this.
00:26:47Just sit in the chair, sir, please, will you?
00:26:54Let me see.
00:27:02Nice evening, isn't it?
00:27:04Fine for getting shortwave broadcasts.
00:27:06I don't want any shortwave broadcasts.
00:27:09I don't care if it's raining cats and dogs.
00:27:10I want this tooth out.
00:27:12Let me see that I enjoy Mr. Wilkinson's full confidence.
00:27:15Well, I'm very glad to hear it.
00:27:16Shall I open my mouth now?
00:27:17Yes, certainly.
00:27:18You can tell me anything you want.
00:27:19Uh...
00:27:20Uh...
00:27:21You really want it out?
00:27:26Hey, what's the matter with you?
00:27:27You non-compass mentors are so much.
00:27:30You've been here before, haven't you?
00:27:31What's that got to do with it?
00:27:32Well, we just make it a rule only to attend to regular customers after closing time.
00:27:36Oh, dash it all.
00:27:36Do you think I'm going to suffer all night for your silly rules?
00:27:39Here.
00:27:40Are you going to take it out or do I have to take it out of you?
00:27:43Your mind's made up.
00:27:45Oh, it's dawned on you.
00:27:47Just wait there a minute, please.
00:27:49Very often, I'm...
00:27:51Oh, what is this?
00:27:51A dentist or a madhouse?
00:27:53Here.
00:27:54Are you going to take this thing out?
00:27:55All right.
00:27:55All right.
00:27:55It's coming out.
00:27:56Just a minute.
00:28:02Which tooth did you say it was again?
00:28:05Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:28:08Mm-hmm.
00:28:10Your top teeth are pretty good.
00:28:13They're false, you're fathead.
00:28:15Oh, so they are.
00:28:17I see that now.
00:28:18They quite took me in for a minute.
00:28:19You want the plate out?
00:28:21No, no, just the tooth.
00:28:26Just open your mouth a little wider, please, will you?
00:28:39Hey, how are you doing it?
00:28:40You're not going to take it out in cold blood, are you?
00:28:41Can't have a local anesthetic.
00:28:43Oh, I'm afraid Mr. Wilkinson always locks up everything like that.
00:28:47Hey, what's that over there?
00:28:48Is that a gas apparatus or not?
00:28:50Yes, that's gas.
00:28:52All right, then I'll have gas.
00:28:54Quite sure.
00:28:54It is after effects, you know.
00:28:57Compared to what I'm suffering, the after effects will be a pleasure.
00:29:02Hope you're right.
00:29:02Now what's to do?
00:29:32Are you going to give me gas or not?
00:29:35I am.
00:29:36If you don't, so too.
00:29:37I'm sick of sitting here.
00:29:38Away with you both.
00:29:39Yeah.
00:29:40I didn't care.
00:29:40I know.
00:29:57There you are.
00:30:00I know.
00:32:48Ask me if you had any luck Chief.
00:32:50I have.
00:32:51Here.
00:32:52Look at that.
00:32:56It's Daisy and me in the pant.
00:32:57No no.
00:32:58Turn it over.
00:32:59Sergeant Bingham CID.
00:33:01Where did you get this?
00:33:02In the safe.
00:33:04You can't believe it.
00:33:07You know Chief this sort of thing shatters your faith in women.
00:33:11Well we could do with a bit of shattering.
00:33:13Here with me.
00:33:14Do you know I'm going to put it back in there?
00:33:16I am.
00:33:17But if you find it, that'll make me look like an accessory.
00:33:20Well, you will, won't you?
00:33:22Now then, we're going to leave this place exactly as we found it.
00:33:25Without anyone knowing we've been here.
00:33:29Why, Chief, might you go and arrest Wilkinson?
00:33:32Not yet.
00:33:34You haven't left anything lying around at the surgery, have you?
00:33:37No, no, I've got the teeth in my pocket.
00:33:39I don't want to see them.
00:33:40Talk about a blooming cannibal.
00:33:43Curtains.
00:33:44Call Rosby Granny.
00:34:10We've let the light on.
00:34:12That's funny.
00:34:12I swore that would get out.
00:34:24It's truth.
00:34:25What have we done now?
00:34:26It can't be my patience.
00:34:28Oh, it's going to be you.
00:34:32It's the dentist.
00:34:33Look at you.
00:34:34The gas is still on.
00:34:34He's a gunner.
00:34:43Dead.
00:34:45This is awful.
00:34:46But I was here just a few minutes ago.
00:34:49Must have happened when you were seeing your patient off, obviously.
00:34:52Must have found out that we were here.
00:34:54Decided he couldn't face it and come down and gassed himself.
00:34:57Hmm.
00:34:59I'd better phone the local police.
00:35:01Wait a minute.
00:35:03Look at these.
00:35:04One shoe is laced across the usual way.
00:35:06On the other shoe, the top three holes are laced crisscross.
00:35:08You can put your own construction in that, I suppose.
00:35:12Well, no man laced his shoes different ways.
00:35:15Someone else put that shoe on his foot.
00:35:17Why?
00:35:18I don't know yet.
00:35:19But whoever did it may be still in the house.
00:35:23Wait here.
00:35:24No sign of anybody.
00:35:44I'm going to make a search of Wilker's Bedroom, see if I can find anything.
00:35:47I'll come up with you, Chief.
00:35:48No, you don't.
00:35:49We've got no time to lose.
00:35:50Here, take these.
00:35:53Bring up the yard.
00:35:54Give Blue my kind regards and read that list over to him.
00:35:57What are they?
00:35:58The names, addresses, and code numbers of Mr. Wilker's so-called patients.
00:36:02Toe blow since he wants to know who's been talking.
00:36:04There's 40 of them.
00:36:06Thank you for listening.
00:36:13There we go.
00:36:26You're right now.
00:36:26sorry for the delay sergeant inspector blow has just gone out they're expecting him back in 10
00:36:45minutes i ask him to ring you back yes please and it's very urgent
00:36:48thank you
00:37:18Oh!
00:37:42Hello?
00:37:43Who's that?
00:37:45This is Mrs Wilkinson speaking.
00:37:47Can I repeat to Dr Kerbisle at once, please?
00:38:05It's all right. It's all right.
00:38:07No need to be alarmed.
00:38:09Who are you?
00:38:10I'm a police officer.
00:38:12What are you doing in this house?
00:38:14I'm here in connection with your husband.
00:38:18He's dead.
00:38:27That's right. You just sit down quietly for a few minutes.
00:38:31I can imagine how you're feeling.
00:38:33Can you?
00:38:34I wonder.
00:38:35I should be awfully upset, shouldn't I?
00:38:37Aren't you?
00:38:39No.
00:38:41You... you are Mrs Wilkinson?
00:38:43Yes.
00:38:44But we weren't what is called a happily married couple.
00:38:48You found out that he was a...
00:38:50that he was a...
00:38:52Yes.
00:38:54I told him he'd get caught sooner or later.
00:38:56It was no use.
00:38:58They had some sort of hold on him.
00:39:01Who were they?
00:39:02I don't know.
00:39:04I shouldn't have known anything except that I...
00:39:06I found a letter of his.
00:39:08What did you do?
00:39:09I...
00:39:10I taxed him with it and...
00:39:12he flew into a rage and...
00:39:14and struck me.
00:39:18You did?
00:39:19Yes.
00:39:20But that was nothing unusual.
00:39:22I said I'd go to the police and he threatened to shoot me.
00:39:25What could I do?
00:39:28What would you have done?
00:39:32I don't know.
00:39:35It's... it's very awkward for you.
00:39:37Could I have a cigarette, Inspector, please?
00:39:39Why, certainly, certainly.
00:39:42Now...
00:39:44Now, I'm afraid I've got to ask you just a...
00:39:47just a few questions.
00:39:51You're not going to be brutal to me, are you?
00:39:53No, no, no, no.
00:39:54That will hardly be necessary.
00:39:56But I'll expect a statement and...
00:39:59just as a mere matter of formality.
00:40:01Oh, yes, of course.
00:40:02Well, I shan't attempt to hide anything from you.
00:40:08Well, now...
00:40:11do you know what part your husband had in this organization?
00:40:15None.
00:40:17But I'm sure it couldn't have been a very important one.
00:40:19Oh, I'm afraid you're wrong there, my dear, Mrs. Wilkinson.
00:40:23As a matter of fact, I'm quite sure you are.
00:40:26Well, what makes you say that?
00:40:27Well, I have here the names and addresses of 40 of his patients, whom I have every reason to believe supplied him regularly with information.
00:40:35But I can't believe it.
00:40:37Are you positive of that?
00:40:39I found it in a book in his safe.
00:40:41But if he's as important as all that, why did he take his own life?
00:40:46He didn't.
00:40:48Somebody else took it.
00:40:51He was murdered.
00:40:52Oh.
00:40:53Now, here, here, Mrs. Wilkinson.
00:40:56So what's the matter?
00:40:57We'll pull yourself together.
00:40:59Here, here.
00:41:00Mr. Wilkinson.
00:41:01It's like waters.
00:41:19Gosh.
00:41:21Here.
00:41:23That's better now, isn't it?
00:41:25Here, drink this.
00:41:29I'm sorry.
00:41:30It's all right.
00:41:31You'll be feeling better in a minute.
00:41:34I can't stay the night here alone, Inspector.
00:41:36I'm afraid I'm on duty.
00:41:38But I've got a sister who lives just around the corner.
00:41:40Couldn't I spend the night with her?
00:41:42I'm sorry.
00:41:43I can't allow that.
00:41:44I promise I wouldn't move from there.
00:41:46No, you wouldn't.
00:41:47And if it rested with me, I'd let you do it like a shot.
00:41:50But it does rest with you, doesn't it?
00:41:52No, not exactly.
00:41:54You see, I haven't mentioned it before, but I've got an assistant, an associate.
00:42:00There are two of you?
00:42:01Yes.
00:42:02He's upstairs, and I'm afraid he'll want you to come to the police station.
00:42:06Oh.
00:42:07Drink, drink.
00:42:08Oh.
00:42:09It must be all right.
00:42:10Will you answer it, Inspector?
00:42:11Don't worry about me.
00:42:12Hello?
00:42:13Hello?
00:42:14Yes?
00:42:15Oh, Inspector Blue.
00:42:17Yes, this is Bingham.
00:42:18What are you ringing up at this hour for?
00:42:19I've decided to confess, after all.
00:42:20Certainly not.
00:42:21Oh, as a matter of fact, it's not unconnected with your inquiries this morning.
00:42:25Hmm?
00:42:26Well, now, Horley and I decided, as you were floundering about, to give you a bit of help.
00:42:27To put you in the right road, as it were.
00:42:28Mm-hmm.
00:42:29Huh?
00:42:30No, no, no, no, no.
00:42:31No, I must correct you there.
00:42:32My mother and father were married properly at the Kirk at Paisley.
00:42:33Huh?
00:42:34Huh?
00:42:35And that remark comes very badly from you, after all we've done.
00:42:38All right.
00:42:39If you'll just tell me, of course, one minute.
00:42:40No, no.
00:42:41Let me have a clue about what you're saying.
00:42:42Have you come.
00:42:43There, Oh, Mr. Monkey?
00:42:44Ha?
00:42:45It made him come.
00:42:46Yes.
00:42:47Mr. Amanda.
00:42:48The Queen, Mr. Kilmer, I cannot.
00:42:49He will leave my mind again for you.
00:42:50Of course.
00:42:51EU TEAM.
00:42:52That is truly the only way rather than the one of DavidIT Roberts.
00:42:56I am sorry for my wine.
00:42:57What are we all sitting down here?
00:42:58And hetemps?
00:42:59Your53 pieces are rise up here.
00:43:00I am sure my speech extensively goes here.
00:43:01And I was smiles after him.
00:43:03You have stopped him.
00:43:04Right, if you'll just keep calm, I'll tell you.
00:43:08Well, I have here the names and addresses of about 40 people who have been passing information.
00:43:15Yes, if you'll just get out your little pencil and paper, I'll read them out to you.
00:43:20You ready?
00:43:34Just a minute, Bloor. I think I've got a hold of the wrong piece of paper or something. Hold on.
00:43:53Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:43:57Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:00Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:04Oh, hello, Bloor. Sorry, there's been a slight hitch here. I'll bring you back.
00:44:15Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:20Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:24Maybe she's got her sister's...
00:44:26Oh, gosh, the books.
00:44:28Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:30Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:34Mrs. Wilkinson?
00:44:45Begum.
00:44:47Begum.
00:44:49Oh, there you are.
00:44:51There's been some pretty rum goings on in this house, I'm telling you.
00:44:54You're telling me.
00:44:56What did you phone, Bloor?
00:44:57Yes, I phoned him.
00:44:59What did he say?
00:45:00Well, he didn't say anything, Chief, because...
00:45:03Because what?
00:45:05Look, you're quite sure you gave me that list, aren't you?
00:45:08What are you blathering about?
00:45:16That's all I've got, Chief.
00:45:18There's nothing on it.
00:45:19Begum.
00:45:20What the blaze have you been doing while I've been upstairs?
00:45:22I had it in my hand when I first phoned Bloor.
00:45:25Well, go on.
00:45:27Well, he wasn't in, and so I put it back in my pocket.
00:45:30I know it was there when she came in, because...
00:45:32She?
00:45:33Mrs. Wilkinson.
00:45:34So she's here?
00:45:36Well, she was here.
00:45:38Was?
00:45:39Yes.
00:45:39I'm afraid she's gone to...
00:45:41Gone where?
00:45:43Just through that French window.
00:45:45Begum.
00:45:46Are you drunk as well as incapable?
00:45:47Well, I told her to stop here, but she must have slipped out when I was on the phone.
00:46:04She's pinched the evidence.
00:46:05But I think I know where we can find her.
00:46:08Where?
00:46:09At her sister's.
00:46:10What's the address?
00:46:12Now, listen to me, you big dome vacuum.
00:46:15Hasn't it dawned on you yet that that woman was simply playing you for a sucker?
00:46:20Well, what happened then?
00:46:22Well, I had just phoned Bloor when the front door opened, and I hid behind the curtains.
00:46:28Yeah?
00:46:29Well, she came in, saw the body, and rushed to the telephone.
00:46:31She dialed the number and asked for the doctor.
00:46:33What doctor?
00:46:34Kerbishly.
00:46:35Maybe Kerbishly.
00:46:37And then?
00:46:41Well, she must have seen me behind the curtains because she screamed.
00:46:45So I stepped out.
00:46:46And what did she tell you?
00:46:47That her husband was a spy, and that he used to beat her.
00:46:50Yeah, and you sympathized with her?
00:46:52Well, in a way...
00:46:53Good memory.
00:46:55The woman hasn't been a widow five minutes, but she's still a game to you.
00:46:59Then I suppose you told her about that list.
00:47:01I did mention it.
00:47:02I knew it.
00:47:03She fainted.
00:47:04Yeah, then you helped her out of the settee.
00:47:06Yes.
00:47:06And she pinched the list in your pocket.
00:47:08You went to fetch her for some brandy.
00:47:10Water.
00:47:11And she switched the blank sheets back on you.
00:47:13It's as pale as a fight, staff.
00:47:15And there's no Kerbishly or Corbishly in the book.
00:47:18But I'm sure it was Kerbishly.
00:47:20You've made about a bigger hash of this as anything you've done in the whole of your misbegotten career.
00:47:24Here we are, working on a case which has nothing to do with us.
00:47:26You get hold of the star witness and let her go with all the exhibits.
00:47:30Look.
00:47:31Look, couldn't we just slip out like and not tell anybody we were here?
00:47:35Well, after you phoned the yard with the murdered man in the other room...
00:47:38He may not have been murdered.
00:47:39He was murdered.
00:47:41While you were mucking things up down here, I've been busy.
00:47:44Wilkinson was planning to run away to South America.
00:47:47Passports, permits, all in order.
00:47:49But somebody or other didn't want to go.
00:47:51So they waited for him upstairs.
00:47:53He came in, was just chained to his slippers, and then nipped up behind him, laid him out, slipped his shoe on again...
00:48:00...cought him downstairs, bunged him to that chair, and tried to make it look like suicide.
00:48:05How does that sound?
00:48:06There doesn't seem to be anything missing.
00:48:08No, except the clue to the murderer.
00:48:10That list of agents and Mrs Wilkinson.
00:48:13Apart from that, it's all sewn up.
00:48:14Well, I suppose there's nothing else to do, but hand it over to blow, and we go back to the gent's underpants.
00:48:19Now, look here, I don't want any of that defeatist talk.
00:48:21We're going to search this house from cellar to roof.
00:48:23Now, go on, you start outside.
00:48:24I'll start in here.
00:48:26And if there's a whiff of a clue, we'll smell it out.
00:48:40Hello, what's this?
00:48:44Mark's the 12th.
00:48:47No address.
00:48:48My dear Wilkinson, I am sorry to hear you propose taking a holiday.
00:48:52I feel strongly that a journey would not be good for your health at the present moment.
00:48:56I must therefore urge you to cancel it.
00:48:59Yours, A.K.
00:49:00Sounds like a letter from his doctor.
00:49:02Sounds like.
00:49:03Of course it is.
00:49:04A.K.
00:49:04Kerbishly.
00:49:05The doctor she rang up.
00:49:07Yeah, and it doesn't exist.
00:49:09At least not in the phone book.
00:49:11You see, he might be in another district, Chief.
00:49:13He might.
00:49:14But this letter was posted at Upper Ellingford.
00:49:17And that's in this phone area.
00:49:19So that doesn't help.
00:49:24Continuation sheet.
00:49:25Now, who uses continuation sheets?
00:49:28Offices?
00:49:29Yeah, it doesn't look like office paper to me.
00:49:31No, more like hotel stuff.
00:49:33How many printers would there be at Upper Ellingford?
00:49:37There can't be many.
00:49:38It's only a market town.
00:49:39Good.
00:49:39Well, we're going to knock them up.
00:49:42There may be only half a dozen printers in the town, but a more bad-tempered lot I never saw.
00:49:46You can't expect them to dance for joy when you get them up out of their beds in the middle of the night.
00:49:49Hmm.
00:49:50I don't feel very happy myself.
00:49:52Dragging a man from his rest at three in the morning to rake through a lot of note paper.
00:49:56I ought to be compensated for this.
00:49:58Oh, well, it's not your paper.
00:49:59Yes, it is.
00:50:00Oh?
00:50:00Yes, I printed it for the Westgate Manor Hotel.
00:50:03Westgate Manor Hotel, eh?
00:50:05Yeah, I told you it was hotel paper.
00:50:09Yes, it's the same, all right.
00:50:10Of course it's the same.
00:50:12I printed them a brochure at the same time.
00:50:15Now you can clear out and I'll go back to my rest.
00:50:18I sympathize with you.
00:50:19Terms in season.
00:50:20Hello, it's a fishing hotel.
00:50:22Yeah, pretty posh from the places.
00:50:25Bingham, we're going to get up early in the morning.
00:50:27Eh?
00:50:28We're taking a fishing holiday.
00:50:29It's time we've got our hooks into something.
00:50:32Well, thank you very much, sir.
00:50:33You're welcome.
00:50:44Morning, boy.
00:50:45Good morning, sir.
00:50:46You two gentlemen are after the same vacancy?
00:50:48Vacancy?
00:50:50What, are you full up?
00:50:51Well, one day we are, the next day we're not.
00:50:53If I had my way, I'd give them mistresses and stop all this chopping and changing.
00:50:59Hey, what about our luggage?
00:51:01You brought your luggage with you.
00:51:03Optimists, aren't you?
00:51:06You don't look very busy.
00:51:08No, we're not now.
00:51:09They're all out on a paper chase.
00:51:13Who did say paper chase?
00:51:16Yes.
00:51:16Got me up at 6.30 this morning.
00:51:18It's his new Mr. Rolfside here.
00:51:20He started all these capers.
00:51:22Mr. Jenkins was much more sensible, but he joined up three weeks ago along with Mr. Smart,
00:51:26the science master.
00:51:28I tell you, there have been so many changes here since the war started, I can't keep pace
00:51:32with them.
00:51:33You wait in here.
00:51:35But I might as well tell you, you're not the only ones after this history master's job.
00:51:39There's another old bloke in there already.
00:51:40So it's not a hotel anymore.
00:51:46They've evacuated a blooming school here.
00:51:52You know, Chief, I didn't like to mention it before, but, well, I never did think much
00:51:57of that clue of yours.
00:51:58Once in a way, you were right.
00:52:03Gable College, Muswell Hill, London.
00:52:06Notice the prefix.
00:52:07All prefects must be responsible for the blackout of the dormitories.
00:52:10Dr. Alfred Kerbishly, headmaster.
00:52:13He came.
00:52:15We thought it was a medical doctor she rang up last night, but it was this fellow a doctor
00:52:18of literature or something.
00:52:20Hmm.
00:52:21This puts a new face out, if the doctor said, but you had her dial lifted.
00:52:25Yes, but I still don't see anything very sinister in that.
00:52:27Well, hadn't occurred to you, I suppose, that a woman who just found her husband dead doesn't
00:52:30rush to ring up a schoolmaster?
00:52:32Yes, it is a bit peculiar.
00:52:34Now, this is where you were in your own spell at.
00:52:36Put that luggage back into the car and drive down to the town.
00:52:38Put up at the local hotel and find out all you can about the doctor.
00:52:41It's a small place in the mountain where nobody bought his business.
00:52:44What about you, Chief?
00:52:45Somebody's about to ask what you're doing here.
00:52:47Oh, I'll say I'm a new boy who's a bit backward.
00:52:49Now, go on.
00:52:49Off you go.
00:52:50Don't forget, if there's a barmaid there, when she pours out your beer, don't pour out your
00:52:53soul.
00:52:53Good morning.
00:53:17Good morning.
00:53:17Yeah.
00:53:18Are you an applicant?
00:53:20Yes.
00:53:21So am I.
00:53:22Really?
00:53:22My name's Mackenzie.
00:53:25Professor Alec Mackenzie.
00:53:27How do you do?
00:53:28My name is Nottol.
00:53:30Uh, Horace Nottol.
00:53:32How do you do?
00:53:33You may have heard of Mackenzie's history of Europe for schools.
00:53:36Oh, yes, of course.
00:53:37I wrote it.
00:53:38Really?
00:53:40You haven't actually met Dr. Carvishley yet, I take it?
00:53:43No, but I rather fancy that's just a formality.
00:53:47Ah, well.
00:53:48I suppose there's no objection to my waiting.
00:53:49No, no, not in the least.
00:53:52If it isn't a rude question, what was your last school?
00:53:56Borstel.
00:53:56Borstel.
00:53:57Oh, yes.
00:53:58Borstel.
00:53:59I beg your pardon?
00:54:02Borstel.
00:54:03Yeah, but isn't that a penitentiary?
00:54:05Yes.
00:54:06But surely a qualification for a master at Borstel would hardly be a recommendation to this school.
00:54:11On the contrary, my dear sir.
00:54:12I'm just a man for this school.
00:54:14Why?
00:54:15But they mentioned it in the advertisement, didn't they?
00:54:17The school times gave me to understand that this was an establishment for the sons of gentlemen.
00:54:21Oh, is that what they said they were sons of?
00:54:23Well, I hope I'm not here under any misapplihension.
00:54:27Well, it's not as bad as Borstel, if that's what you mean.
00:54:29As a matter of fact, they frequently send their good convict lads here.
00:54:32But do you seriously tell me this is a corrective school?
00:54:36Oh, didn't you know?
00:54:37Oh, I certainly did not.
00:54:40Oh, there's nothing to be worried about, my dear professor.
00:54:42You may find it a trifle alarming for the first two years, but you get used to it.
00:54:47Well, bless my soul, look who's here.
00:54:49If it isn't young, bring him.
00:54:51Now, there's a fine example of the good convict lads they sent here.
00:54:56Oh, but they shouldn't let him have a knife.
00:54:58Why not?
00:54:58Well, he's a nice enough lad, but he has bits of violence.
00:55:01As a matter of fact, I remember once at Borstel, he attacked a carpentry instructor with a chisel.
00:55:05Good heavens.
00:55:07Do you see?
00:55:09Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
00:55:10I didn't know there was anyone in here.
00:55:11That's quite all right, my boy.
00:55:12What do you want?
00:55:13A book, sir.
00:55:14A book?
00:55:14Yes, sir.
00:55:15Help yourself, my son.
00:55:16Thank you, sir.
00:55:17Excuse me, sir.
00:55:18Oh.
00:55:20Oh, let me help you.
00:55:21This one?
00:55:22Yes, please, sir.
00:55:23There we are.
00:55:25Thank you, sir.
00:55:26Not at all.
00:55:28You will...
00:55:29All this greatly perturbs me.
00:55:31I don't...
00:55:31Hey, you!
00:55:35Hey!
00:55:37Now, give me that back.
00:55:39And don't forget you do your thing like that again.
00:55:43Young rascal.
00:55:45What's happened?
00:55:46Have you missed anything?
00:55:47I beg your pardon?
00:55:48This is yours, isn't it?
00:55:51That's my watch.
00:55:52Good gracious me.
00:55:53Ah, well.
00:55:54Boys will be boys, you know.
00:55:55Do you mean that he actually...
00:55:57Oh, this is dreadful.
00:55:59Well, you get used to that sort of thing here, you know.
00:56:01Used to it?
00:56:02That's why you're mistaken.
00:56:03I wouldn't teach in this class of school for any consideration whatever.
00:56:07What?
00:56:08You don't be to say you're going to turn it up.
00:56:09Yes, I am.
00:56:10Oh, my...
00:56:11And I'm very grateful to you for enlightening me.
00:56:13Sure-ho.
00:56:14Professor McKenzie?
00:56:31Who?
00:56:31Who?
00:56:32At your service.
00:56:33Will you come this way, please, Professor?
00:56:34Dr. Kerbishley will see you now.
00:56:36With pleasure.
00:56:42We should be very pleased to have you here, Professor.
00:56:44Weston, the last man, was rather old-fashioned in this method.
00:56:47Oh, really?
00:56:48Well, you won't find anything like that about me.
00:56:52Professor McKenzie, sir.
00:56:53Dr. Kerbishley.
00:56:55How do you do, Professor?
00:56:56Welcome to Gable College.
00:56:57How do you do?
00:56:58You'll find us in strange surroundings, but...
00:57:00Yes, yes, very apt.
00:57:05Please, sir, Don.
00:57:07Yes.
00:57:08I feel very honoured that a man of your scholastic reputation
00:57:11should consider my little establishment worthy of his services.
00:57:13Not at all, not at all.
00:57:15How long were you at heart-grown?
00:57:17Well, let me see now.
00:57:18It must be what?
00:57:20Fifteen years, yippity.
00:57:21I see.
00:57:22It says twenty, eh?
00:57:23Twenty, was it?
00:57:25Oh, tame, does play.
00:57:26Dr. Swan speaks of you in the most glowing terms.
00:57:29Yes, we got on very well together.
00:57:31I was very fond of the old black swan.
00:57:34Well, I don't think we need to discuss it any further.
00:57:36It seems most satisfactory to me.
00:57:38I take it the salary I mentioned in my letter is acceptable to you?
00:57:41Under the circumstances, yes.
00:57:43Oh, there is just one other thing, and it's rather important.
00:57:45Can you start at once?
00:57:46Oh, absolutely.
00:57:48As a matter of fact, I've got my luggage with me.
00:57:50Really?
00:57:51Well, that removes that obstacle.
00:57:53Great.
00:57:54Well, I think you will find it very pleasant here, Professor.
00:57:56Eh, Mr. Jennings?
00:57:57Oh, yes, indeed, sir.
00:57:59I'm sure I shall.
00:57:59Eh, it will be an honour to have you teaching with us, Professor.
00:58:03Hello, yes, Dr. Kerbichley speaking.
00:58:06Who?
00:58:11Well, I'm afraid I can't discuss it now.
00:58:12I'm engaged.
00:58:13I'll send you a school prospectus.
00:58:15But I must see you.
00:58:17I've been trying to get you since last night.
00:58:19Just a minute.
00:58:21Well, I think that's all for the moment, Professor.
00:58:23Mr. Jennings will show you your study.
00:58:25Uh, this way, please, Professor.
00:58:35I've told you before not to ring me here.
00:58:36What is it?
00:58:37I had to get in touch with you.
00:58:39Something dreadful has happened.
00:58:42I can't very well tell you on the phone.
00:58:43I'm at the Angler's Rest in the town.
00:58:47Well, you shouldn't have left Farnchamp without letting me know.
00:58:49I...
00:58:49Oh, I'm so sorry, Doctor.
00:58:54But I wonder if you would let me have my testimonials back.
00:58:57I know you wouldn't mislead them, but...
00:58:58But I'd rather treasure them.
00:59:00Yes, of course.
00:59:02Yes.
00:59:11You must realize it's impossible to talk now.
00:59:14I'll be down there at nine this evening.
00:59:16Until then, stay in your room.
00:59:19Goodbye.
00:59:28Could I have number eight, please?
00:59:29Good morning, sir.
00:59:46Good morning.
00:59:48I want a room for you.
00:59:50Certainly, sir.
00:59:53Good to see the sun again, isn't it?
00:59:55Yes, it is.
00:59:57Will you be staying here long?
00:59:58A few nights, maybe.
01:00:00You'll want a single room, I suppose.
01:00:02That's right.
01:00:04I've got a very nice room facing the river.
01:00:08Yes, but I think I'll have the single room.
01:00:10Very good, sir.
01:00:14Will you read it to me, or shall I read it to you?
01:00:16You read it to us, sir.
01:00:19Oh, very well.
01:00:21Here we are.
01:00:22Evolution of the Corn Laws.
01:00:23Evolution of the Corn Laws.
01:00:24The effect of the industrial revolution, connected with the mechanical invention and the utilization
01:00:30of steam, transformed Great Britain from an agricultural to a manufacturing and commercial country.
01:00:36Oh, yes, sir.
01:00:37Everybody understand that?
01:00:39Oh, yes, sir.
01:00:41Well, um, the opposition to the Corn Laws steadily increased.
01:00:50At length, the conservative premier, Sir Robert Peel, became a convert to Great Britain.
01:00:56And in 1846, Kennedy and Bergeron, to put a name to the Corn Laws.
01:01:01By 187, the duty on the Corn was at once greatly reduced.
01:01:05And it ceased altogether in 1848, with the exception of a registration duty of one shilling
01:01:16per quarter, which terminated in 1869.
01:01:21You know, I don't know about you, but I, uh, I find this a trifle drive.
01:01:24So do we, sir.
01:01:25I thought so.
01:01:26Well, now, but it does mention one very interesting man, Sir Robert Peel, the founder of our modern
01:01:32police force, and a very good job he made of it, too.
01:01:36As a matter of fact, if it hadn't been for him, we should never have had the highly efficient
01:01:39organization with its network of detectives, plainclothes men, and coppers, knucks, I mean
01:01:44informers, that we have today.
01:01:46But still, I dare say that many of you boys, at one time or another, have wanted to be detectives.
01:01:54Yes, I thought so.
01:01:55But let me tell you that it requires more than muscle to make a detective nowadays.
01:01:59Oh, yes.
01:02:00I mean, you have to have powers of observation and deduction.
01:02:04Now, take observation, for instance.
01:02:06I very much doubt if there's a single boy here that could tell me whose car it was that
01:02:10went down the drive just now.
01:02:12It's the head's car, sir.
01:02:13How do you know that?
01:02:14Because he always goes out at this time.
01:02:16That's right.
01:02:16Well, now, if he always goes out at the same time, it's probable that he always returns
01:02:21at a certain hour.
01:02:23Has any boy observed what time that is?
01:02:25Three o'clock, sir.
01:02:27What, every day?
01:02:28Yes, sir, because he takes that in a quarter past three.
01:02:30Hmm.
01:02:30You're more observant than I thought.
01:02:33Well, now, let us see if you're as good at deduction.
01:02:35I'll give you a start.
01:02:37Now, if he always goes out at the same time, that is, 2.30, and he's only gone for half
01:02:41an hour, it follows that wherever he goes can only be a quarter of an hour's car ride
01:02:46away, probably less, since he must spend some time at his destination.
01:02:51Now, can any boy deduce where he goes in that time?
01:02:55The village, sir.
01:02:56What makes you think that?
01:02:57Because I've seen his car there, sir.
01:02:59That's right.
01:03:00Parked outside the post office.
01:03:02I see.
01:03:03Still, that is observation, not deduction.
01:03:06Now, let us try and deduce what he does in the post office.
01:03:10Excuse me, sir, but isn't that the headmaster's business?
01:03:14I beg yours.
01:03:15May you take that as being tantamount or rebuff?
01:03:18Well, sir, I really meant that...
01:03:19Don't apologize.
01:03:20You're quite right, my boy.
01:03:22It's no concern about what he does in the post office.
01:03:24So, as a quid pro quo, if I take May Nose out of the headmaster's business, perhaps
01:03:29you'll stick yours in that book and read from where we left off.
01:03:34What they're doing is they're butting in on a case that doesn't concern them.
01:03:37My case.
01:03:38If you're right, I shall have something to say to Inspector Hornley and Sergeant Bingham,
01:03:44laying down on this job without my permission.
01:03:46They better have a pretty good reason for this.
01:03:48Hello.
01:03:49Oh, is that you, Chief?
01:03:50Well, I've stumbled across something very interesting.
01:03:55No, no, no.
01:03:56It's not to do with the scrounging case, but...
01:03:59Oh, yes, I know, Chief, but...
01:04:02Yes, Chief.
01:04:06How much would your pension be worth if you retired tomorrow?
01:04:09I don't know.
01:04:10Why?
01:04:10Well, you'd better start working it out.
01:04:13Yes, that's quite true, Chief, but...
01:04:15But, Chief!
01:04:17That's my last word.
01:04:19And I don't want any arguments.
01:04:21So you can just take the first train straight back to London.
01:04:25Murdered?
01:04:26Who's been murdered?
01:04:28It says that dentist didn't commit suicide.
01:04:31Now, have you any clues to who's the murderer?
01:04:34You know?
01:04:35Then why didn't you arrest him?
01:04:36Now, that's got nothing to do with it.
01:04:38I've told you before, that's Blow's case.
01:04:40And tell him I resent his interference.
01:04:41Who's talking to him, you or me?
01:04:43Oh, you, sir.
01:04:44Very well, then.
01:04:45Don't interrupt.
01:04:46Registered letter?
01:04:48What registered letter?
01:04:50A registered letter is posted every day
01:04:52to 121 Wessex Street, London.
01:04:56And I want to find out what is going on there.
01:04:59Tell them we think it's the headquarters of the whole outfit.
01:05:01Now, look here.
01:05:01What with two of them jabbering at one end of the line
01:05:03and you hissing in me ear,
01:05:04it'll be quicker if I went to London after all.
01:05:05The Wessex Street is SW1, you know.
01:05:07Now, don't you shove your oar in.
01:05:09Four policemen's enough on one line
01:05:10without the help of the post office.
01:05:13No, Chief.
01:05:16Lord, let me...
01:05:18No, no.
01:05:18Now, all I want you to do
01:05:20is to get somebody competent
01:05:21to watch 121 Wessex Street
01:05:24until the registered letter arrives
01:05:26and then pounce and catch the lot of them.
01:05:29And afterwards,
01:05:31ask them to ring up Bingham at Allingford 69
01:05:33and I'll beg the murderer.
01:05:37Fine.
01:05:39Good night, Chief.
01:05:39I can do with the drink after that.
01:05:47What about the post office?
01:05:48Well, it's a bit late at night,
01:05:49but since it's been just an exciting day,
01:05:51I think I'll have a small whiskey and soda.
01:05:53Bingham,
01:05:54order to a small whiskey, will you?
01:05:55I'll have a double.
01:05:58Hello, Miss.
01:05:59Ask the waiter to send up two double whiskeys
01:06:01and one small one.
01:06:04Sam,
01:06:05one whiskey and two doubles for number two?
01:06:07Right.
01:06:07Oh, and find out what they want to eat.
01:06:18Good evening, sir.
01:06:19Good evening.
01:06:20I believe you have a Mrs. Sutton staying here.
01:06:22Would you be good enough to send out my card?
01:06:23Yes, sir.
01:06:28Sam!
01:06:28Take that card to number eight on your way up, will you?
01:06:33Very good, sir.
01:06:47The gentleman downstairs handed that in, miss.
01:06:49Oh, thank you.
01:06:49You said you'd be here at nine o'clock.
01:07:06It's nearly ten.
01:07:06I know.
01:07:07It's Carlson.
01:07:17He's dead.
01:07:18I know.
01:07:19He was murdered.
01:07:21So it was you who killed him.
01:07:23You reported to me that he was about to clear off to South America.
01:07:26A man like that's not only useless, but dangerous.
01:07:29Well, all I can say is you might have been a little more careful about it.
01:07:33In what way?
01:07:34It may interest you to know that whilst you were disposing of Carlson, there were two detectives in the house.
01:07:40You're sure?
01:07:40I met one of them.
01:07:42Did you find anything?
01:07:43Only a list of our agents in the safe.
01:07:45You needn't be allowed.
01:07:47I played the prostrate widow very successfully.
01:07:49Well, I'll be getting along.
01:07:53I should have closed out my cucumber frame a couple of hours ago.
01:07:56Well, thank you very much for your assistance, Mr. Tomboy.
01:07:59A pleasure.
01:07:59Good night, Inspector.
01:08:00Good night.
01:08:01Good night, Sergeant.
01:08:01Good night, Mr. Tomboy.
01:08:04Hello?
01:08:04Is that you, Hornley?
01:08:06It blow here.
01:08:07I said, what sort of a game are you playing?
01:08:09Oh, listen, I'm in Wessex Street now and there is no one-two-one.
01:08:12The highest number on the street is 75.
01:08:14You wouldn't talk...
01:08:15Here, hang on a minute, will you?
01:08:16Bring back the post office, will you?
01:08:18Quick.
01:08:18Mr. Tomboy!
01:08:19Just a minute.
01:08:21Yes?
01:08:21He wants it.
01:08:23Where's your registered letterbook?
01:08:24Here it is.
01:08:25Oh, you know what I want.
01:08:26Yes.
01:08:30Ah, here we are.
01:08:31Now, this can't lie.
01:08:32I've got the post office registered letterbook here.
01:08:35Now, there's been a registered letter sent to Mr. E. Knight,
01:08:38121 Wessex Street,
01:08:40practically every day for three months.
01:08:43I suppose you can count up to 121?
01:08:45And I don't want any insults.
01:08:47You ask for someone to check up on this and I've done it.
01:08:49Yes, but I ask for somebody competent.
01:08:52We are competent at the yard since you left.
01:08:54And I'm telling you, there's no one-two-one Wessex Street.
01:08:57And there won't be till they pull down the houses of Parliament and make the street a bit longer.
01:09:00Well, why on earth don't you stick your strawberry jam instead of...
01:09:03Hello?
01:09:03Hello?
01:09:04Oh.
01:09:04There's no such place as 121 Wessex Street.
01:09:09But he sends a letter there every day.
01:09:11There's no such place, I tell you.
01:09:12But why would he send a letter to a place that isn't there?
01:09:14It doesn't make sense.
01:09:15But look, 121 Wessex Street, written by me own hand.
01:09:19Well, I don't care if you wrote it with your elbow.
01:09:21There are only 75 houses in Wessex Street.
01:09:23And 121 isn't one of them.
01:09:25But if registered letters are not delivered, they come back to me.
01:09:28Have you never had any of them back?
01:09:29Never.
01:09:29That's why I say if it's written there...
01:09:30Oh, take them all away.
01:09:33Now, that letter was handed in your post office this afternoon.
01:09:36Now, where would it be at this moment?
01:09:37In a sealed bag at Northbury, waiting for the night mail.
01:09:39Where does the bag join the train?
01:09:41Lackister?
01:09:41No, about 10 miles before that, it's caught up by the automatic arm.
01:09:44Where does the night mail start from?
01:09:46Carlisle.
01:09:46What time?
01:09:4710.45.
01:09:4910.05.
01:09:50Brigham, we're going to Carlisle.
01:09:52What about the luggage, Chief?
01:09:53Leave it!
01:09:55I'll get you a passport, Helen, and you can go abroad to a neutral country.
01:10:02There must be one left somewhere.
01:10:06Wait a minute.
01:10:08There's the detective who's in the house.
01:10:10Which one?
01:10:11The tall one.
01:10:13The little fellow we've got in tow is the village postmaster.
01:10:16And I was under the impression that the man with him was my new history master,
01:10:20and I appear to have made a mistake.
01:10:21Suppose it was just a nominal charge for the room, seeing I haven't slept in it.
01:10:24I'm sorry, sir, but I'm afraid you'll have to pay the full price as you've used the room.
01:10:30You're charging me for bed and breakfast, and I haven't done either.
01:10:32Go on, pay up and don't argue.
01:10:34If it was my own money, I'd be adamant.
01:10:37I'm seeing it will go down in expenses or concede the point.
01:10:40They must have found out I was here.
01:10:42If they had, they'd hardly be leaving.
01:10:44No, I fancy they had something else on their minds.
01:10:47Oh, can't you pocket it without counting the change for once?
01:10:49Come on, come on.
01:10:50Good night, Mr. Tomboy.
01:10:51A minute, thanks again.
01:10:51Hey.
01:10:55Oh, good evening, Mr. Tomboy.
01:10:57I wonder if you'd mind obliging me.
01:10:59I know it's after post office hours and all that,
01:11:00but I should be very grateful if you'd break the rules and cash a money order for me.
01:11:04Well, I...
01:11:05Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get to the bank today.
01:11:08Well, certainly, Dr. Kerbishley, with the greatest of pleasure.
01:11:10Oh, thank you very much.
01:11:11I'll run you down to the post office now, shall I?
01:11:13Oh, thanks.
01:11:16Well, it's one of the registered letters for London.
01:11:19I made a mistake about the receipt.
01:11:21It got the addresses mixed up.
01:11:23If I could have it back, I could put it right in a few minutes.
01:11:26It's gone.
01:11:28Oh.
01:11:29Oh, very well.
01:11:31The registered letters have already left Northby for the mail train.
01:11:34It's too late to stop them now, Dr. Kerbishley.
01:11:36There's nothing I can do, can...
01:11:41You've no reason to suspect any of your sorted, have you, Joe?
01:11:48No.
01:11:49Of course, I can't say for certain.
01:11:51We keep getting new ones on as the young'uns are called up.
01:11:53But I wouldn't surprise everybody if somebody new came on tonight.
01:11:56I don't follow you, Inspector.
01:11:57For me, for instance.
01:11:58Sorting isn't an easy job, you know.
01:12:00It's years before you're any good at it.
01:12:02Well, you're shorthanded, and I'm no good at it.
01:12:04You can keep telling me so.
01:12:06Say you've got to give me the sack in the morning.
01:12:07That'll fool them.
01:12:08It might work, Joe.
01:12:10What do you think?
01:12:12I don't know.
01:12:12It's got to work.
01:12:13Now, come on, you're the place, Master.
01:12:15Who can you substitute me for?
01:12:17When's your run-con due for the call-up?
01:12:18Any day.
01:12:19Well, if we can stop him before he gets here, we can tell the rest he's had it.
01:12:24What do you mean?
01:12:25Can't I be a short or two?
01:12:26No, you can't.
01:12:28You're going to be what you've always been, a passenger.
01:12:30Hello.
01:12:30Send George in here, will you please?
01:12:34Run-con's been called up.
01:12:35He'll take his place.
01:12:36Here we go.
01:12:38So what's the name?
01:12:39He hasn't been on sorted for five years.
01:12:40Seven.
01:12:41He'll be as good as some of you.
01:12:42I hope the train's coming in now.
01:12:44Look like you're there.
01:12:46Sorry, late for dinner, John.
01:12:47Let's all out.
01:12:48Hello.
01:13:01Hello.
01:13:04Faster.
01:13:04Want another phone?
01:13:08Better hurry.
01:13:11Hello?
01:13:11Hello?
01:13:11Yes?
01:13:16I have to warn you, two detectives will be on the train tonight.
01:13:19No, if you're careful, it'll be all right.
01:13:22One of them's tall, bald, looks intelligent and isn't.
01:13:26The other one's short, with a sour face, doesn't look intelligent and he is.
01:13:29Has he got a heavy load?
01:13:30Apparently.
01:13:32Oh, and I've seen him.
01:13:33He's the new sorter.
01:13:34They're working fast.
01:13:36Listen, whatever you do, don't let him get hold of that letter.
01:13:39No, lead that to me.
01:13:41I don't like the sound of it.
01:13:44How'd it go?
01:13:44I don't like the sound of it.
01:14:10Here we are registered.
01:14:40what people find to write about.
01:14:42No consideration around us, that's what it is.
01:15:10You? What are you doing?
01:15:39What are you doing here?
01:15:40Good evening, Sergeant.
01:15:41Perhaps I should introduce myself.
01:15:43I'm the principal of your colleague's school.
01:15:45It's smart of you both to discover that I posted a registered letter this afternoon and catch a train at Carlyle.
01:15:51But I've an idea. The inspector won't find that letter.
01:15:54Oh? Why not?
01:15:55Because you're going to write him a little note and ask him to come along here and see me first.
01:16:00And you think I'd fall for a thing like that, eh?
01:16:02Well, I'm hoping to persuade John.
01:16:06I suppose you know it's a very serious thing to point a gun at me like that.
01:16:09For you or for us?
01:16:11For you, of course.
01:16:12I know all about you.
01:16:14You've both got to answer a few questions.
01:16:16I'm sorry, Sergeant, but as a schoolmaster, I prefer to put the questions.
01:16:20And at the moment, I'm asking you to write that note to Hornley.
01:16:23Do you think I'd do that?
01:16:25I should if I were you.
01:16:27Oh, but my dead body.
01:16:29Isn't that rather an unfortunate way of putting it?
01:16:31I think we can avoid that unpleasantness for the moment.
01:16:34Helen, would you mind relieving the sergeant's wallet?
01:16:37Careful, Sergeant.
01:16:40I'll throw caution to the winds in a minute.
01:16:44That'll be very foolish of you.
01:16:46And his father's hand, please.
01:16:48What are you going to do?
01:16:51I've spent a considerable period of my youth practicing the art of forgery or suffering the penalties for it.
01:16:56Helen, would you mind?
01:17:02I imagine we shall find an example of your handwriting on your identity card.
01:17:18Mr. Busby.
01:17:23Got a new sorter on tonight?
01:17:25Well?
01:17:26Local on the train there says he's his brother.
01:17:28Asked me to give him this note.
01:17:30Well, it's against regulations.
01:17:32Still, we'll let it go this time.
01:17:40You're still on that luck?
01:17:42Well, let me tell you, if everybody here worked at the speed you're going,
01:17:44this post will arrive in about three years' time.
01:17:47Here.
01:17:50Talk about a nagger.
01:17:51I seem to be at home with me wife.
01:18:08I've got to go along and see my sergeant.
01:18:10The letter I am after is in the SWO, number 20.
01:18:12It's addressed tonight.
01:18:131-2-1 by 6-3.
01:18:15Keep your eyes blue to it while I'm gone, will you?
01:18:17Okay.
01:18:18Go on.
01:18:19I'm a CID man.
01:18:20I wonder if you'll go in that next compartment and examine the tickets.
01:18:21Certainly, gentlemen.
01:18:22Certainly, gentlemen.
01:18:24Tickets, please.
01:18:25I'm a CID man.
01:18:26I'm a CID man.
01:18:27I'm a CID man.
01:18:28I wonder if you'll go in that next compartment and examine the tickets.
01:18:29Certainly, gentlemen.
01:18:30Tickets, please.
01:18:31I'm a CID man.
01:18:38I wonder if you go in that next compartment and examine the tickets.
01:18:42Certainly, gentlemen.
01:18:49Tickets, please.
01:18:55What tickets are these?
01:18:57I don't think I've got mine on me.
01:18:59Inspector, I think I'll come with you.
01:19:00I think I've got yours, Edward.
01:19:03Thank you, madam.
01:19:05Thank you, madam.
01:19:07There you are, dear.
01:19:10Who's in there?
01:19:11Tall, bald, heady, gentlemen, sir.
01:19:12Looks rather pale.
01:19:13Yeah, anybody else?
01:19:14A well-dressed man with a long nose and a red-headed woman.
01:19:16Rather pretty.
01:19:18Thank you very much.
01:19:19Anything else I can do for you, sir?
01:19:20No, not just now, thank you.
01:19:21Very good, sir.
01:19:30Excuse me.
01:19:34What's he thinking, sir?
01:19:36The inspector's rather a long time.
01:19:55I hope the Aussie sergeant's be no hitch.
01:20:02Don't move.
01:20:05Good work, sir.
01:20:05Good work.
01:20:10Well, Dr. Kerbisley,
01:20:11I think you've had my credentials.
01:20:15Go on.
01:20:15Watch him, Bingham.
01:20:16I'll be back in a moment.
01:20:16I don't let this redhead try any more of our tricks.
01:20:21No, sir.
01:20:27It's just an example of the way we work, you know.
01:20:30I hope I find some pain back.
01:20:34Here we are, Corporal.
01:20:35Look out at those two.
01:20:37This is what is known as a matter of national importance.
01:20:39All right, Inspector.
01:20:40Well, you will be.
01:20:41Come on, Bingham.
01:20:42I may need your help.
01:20:44So long, Doctor.
01:20:45See you later.
01:20:46Here, where's that registered letter?
01:21:01Which registered letter?
01:21:03The one that was in there.
01:21:04Well, what do you want with it?
01:21:05That's my business.
01:21:06What have you done with it?
01:21:07You accusing me of pinching it.
01:21:08I'm asking you what you've done with it.
01:21:10I'm not going to be talked to a lot like that by an extra man.
01:21:12I'm going to have this out with the head sorter.
01:21:16Well, Mr. Bosby, is it better than me and accusing me of...
01:21:20I should take it easy if I were you.
01:21:31All right, fellas.
01:21:32We're from Scotland Yard.
01:21:33This is Inspector Holm in the CID.
01:21:35Look out at him.
01:21:36He's a fifth columnist.
01:21:37Come on, out of it.
01:21:38Come on.
01:21:42There you are, the little fellow that never broadcasts from the same place twice.
01:22:11And within 24 hours of laying my hand on the mystery transmitter, I had the whole organization behind bars.
01:22:18What a blow.
01:22:20Still on the last chapter?
01:22:21Making the most of it, I suppose.
01:22:23I am.
01:22:24Oh, I mentioned that you had some connection with the case.
01:22:26Oh.
01:22:26You still haven't mentioned my connection with it.
01:22:29I haven't finished yet.
01:22:31In conclusion, I would like to pay tribute to a man without whose help I could never have achieved this coup.
01:22:37Mr. Tomboy, the postmaster of Upper Alley Road.
01:22:40Now look here, Chief.
01:22:41I've given you the best years of my life.
01:22:43Hello?
01:22:44Oh, what is that?
01:22:46Commissioner for you, blow.
01:22:49Morning, Chief.
01:22:51But Hornley's on the scrounging case, sir.
01:22:53Since when?
01:22:54Oh.
01:22:55What?
01:22:57Me?
01:22:57My age?
01:22:59That's right.
01:23:00Suppose I'll get a commission.
01:23:01No, no, private.
01:23:03Very good, sir.
01:23:04And don't think this is a pity job, no, old man.
01:23:07I mean, this isn't just the case of a few tins of strawberry jam.
01:23:09Oh, no, no.
01:23:10It's costing the country a thousand a year.
01:23:11And here's a few clues to be going on with.
01:23:13One pair of jets underbendies large size, one tin of pilchards, and one bar of carbonic soap.
01:23:19Let's go.
01:23:20We'll be there.
01:23:21Let's go.
01:23:23We'll be there.
01:23:26We're there.
01:23:26Yes.
01:23:27Yes.
01:23:27NASA.
01:23:28Yes.
