00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00This match brings to the newsreel screen one of the greatest amateur teams that ever wore football boots.
00:01:20Amateurs, but already they've beaten nearly all the crack professionals.
00:01:23These boys have made the name of the Trojans club world famous.
00:01:26In pace and ball control, they have no equals anywhere.
00:01:28Once near the goal, it's next door to a dead serve.
00:01:32Now watch another one start on the enemy.
00:01:34Setchley has the ball, and he's fetching it along like a mother nursing a baby.
00:01:38Yes, it's a goal.
00:01:39And that brings the total of Setchley's goals up to 34 for the season already.
00:01:42This young man is one of the most dazzling spots in the team with all high life.
00:01:46And before the great charity game, we give you this interview with the team.
00:01:51Will the Trojans maintain their wonderful record?
00:01:53Or will the big guns of mighty Arsenal blow them sky high?
00:01:57Eddie Hapgood, left back and Arsenal captain.
00:01:59Bryn Jones, he cost Arsenal as much as a war and he's almost a danger.
00:02:03Leslie Jones, another international.
00:02:05Cliff Bastin, the boy wonder.
00:02:07Football is the only game he ever wants to play.
00:02:08I don't know what my wife will say.
00:02:10The three musketeers, Alf Fields, Crayston and George Mayle.
00:02:15The one and only George Allison, mind you don't lose that tie pin.
00:02:19Kirshen, a streak of lightning on the right wing.
00:02:22Bremner, born with a silver football in his mouth, but he busted.
00:02:25Ted Drake, centre forward, tall, dark and handsome.
00:02:29Swindon, the goalkeeper, still in his winter woolly.
00:02:32And Tom Whittaker, their famous trainer.
00:02:35Now for the Trojans, here's Francis Kindlet, secretary and organist.
00:02:38You're really good, Frank, you do, absolutely, really good.
00:02:40Torben, goal.
00:02:41Welcock, left wing, Kreef, left back.
00:02:45Garrow, centre half, Brown, left half.
00:02:48Then there's Bredge, centre forward.
00:02:50And Jurner, inside left.
00:02:52And Charlie, right back, the Trojans' brilliant captain.
00:02:56Now here's a man to watch, Maring.
00:02:59This is his last match before he gets married.
00:03:01After that, his wife will watch him.
00:03:04Setchley has a lady friend.
00:03:05It's Helen, the Trojans' mascot.
00:03:06They pin a badge on Helen every time they win.
00:03:09Setchley looks after her.
00:03:10He's the only one of the team she can trust.
00:03:15Now for the Trojans' dark horse, Jack Doyce, inside right.
00:03:18Doyce has only just joined the team, but he's a well-known amateur.
00:03:21And great things are expected of him.
00:03:23You hear that, Doyce?
00:03:24He's not here, Mr. Kindlet.
00:03:25Oh?
00:03:27Well, I hope there's nothing wrong.
00:03:28He'll be there.
00:03:29You may be in the team yet, Mr. Rale.
00:03:31Even greater records.
00:03:46How'd you like that, Mr. Anderson?
00:03:47Oh, very interesting indeed.
00:03:48We've shown that all over the country.
00:03:49Are you really?
00:03:50Oh, yes, thank you.
00:03:52Well, Frank, it's 12 o'clock now.
00:03:54We meet in the stadium at 3.
00:03:56That's right.
00:03:56We'll begin wheeling us off at 10 minutes past, what?
00:03:58Oh, I hope not.
00:03:59I'm sure not.
00:04:01Programme.
00:04:02Programme.
00:04:04Official programme and teams.
00:04:07Programme.
00:04:08Here you are.
00:04:09Trojan or Arsenal?
00:04:10Trojan.
00:04:10Trojan.
00:04:12Wear your colours.
00:04:13What the Alison do you think I'm wearing?
00:04:15Up the Arsenal.
00:04:16Up the Trojan's.
00:04:17Arsenal.
00:04:19Above all, boys, you must respect this amateur side.
00:04:23They're one of the finest amateur teams we've seen for years.
00:04:26They don't play your game.
00:04:28They play the attacking game.
00:04:30All their five forwards go up at once.
00:04:33And their right half and left half, they go through at every possible chance.
00:04:38And when those two wing halfbacks go through, I want our inside forwards, left hand, right,
00:04:42go after them.
00:04:43Don't let them get away with it.
00:04:45Now, that's important.
00:04:47You get that, Eddie?
00:04:48Yes, we got it.
00:04:49The prestige of the Arsenal's at stake.
00:04:52I'm more keen to win this match than I am to win 90% of our games during the season.
00:04:58Time for the boys to change, Mr. Ellison.
00:05:00Oh, OK, Tom.
00:05:01We'll carry on, boys.
00:05:02Get on.
00:05:03It'll be easy this afternoon, boys.
00:05:05Who is this, Deuce?
00:05:06Oh, it'll be a war room.
00:05:07Oh, good afternoon, Mr. Kindler.
00:05:08You're not going to find it too easy, boys, you know.
00:05:10Uh-huh.
00:05:14Hello, Tim.
00:05:15Hello, Bill.
00:05:16Hello, Frank.
00:05:16Everyone here, Carter?
00:05:17All except Mr. Moring, sir, and Mr. Deuce.
00:05:19Oh, Deuce will be here.
00:05:20He won't miss this game.
00:05:21And Phil Moring's probably new with this fiasco.
00:05:24Well, Rayle, you better get changed any case.
00:05:26You never know where you are, the fitter like Deuce.
00:05:29Well, there are only 20 minutes to go.
00:05:32Now, really, Gwen, you're not upset about that schmozzle at the flat, are you?
00:05:35What, you expect me to be tickled to death?
00:05:37Well, I can explain about that girl, all right, but it's rather a long story.
00:05:41I'll tell you tonight.
00:05:42Tonight's off.
00:05:44Oh, you're thinking of Phil Moring.
00:05:46Perhaps.
00:05:48You met his family yet?
00:05:49No, were there away traveling?
00:05:51I thought you hadn't.
00:05:53They're nice people, but a bit stuffy.
00:05:55They've got a great deal of that, you know, and he won't see a penny of it if he marries you.
00:06:01Love in an attic.
00:06:02Oh, well.
00:06:03Touching.
00:06:04I'm marrying Phil, not his family.
00:06:06You're telling me.
00:06:08Dear me, I do believe we're quite annoyed.
00:06:11We'll soon settle that.
00:06:16It's the last time, Jack.
00:06:20Of course.
00:06:21I'll see you tonight.
00:06:23So sorry, Jack, but it's all over.
00:06:25The key will still be on top of the door.
00:06:27Well, let's go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down, let it go down.
00:06:34I'm so sorry, Inga.
00:06:36I know I'm late, but the traffic was awful.
00:06:39Hello, Phil.
00:06:40Hello.
00:06:41Well, I tried to get you last night and this morning.
00:06:43Hello, Inga.
00:06:44How's the cousin from Sweden?
00:06:46You think you go home, no?
00:06:47You always make the same joke, Phil.
00:06:50But, Gwen, why didn't you tell me you couldn't see me last night?
00:06:52I couldn't, but it was too sudden.
00:06:55My Aunt Bessie was taken home.
00:06:56Darling, I'm so glad to see you.
00:06:58Have you missed me?
00:06:58Have I?
00:07:00Come on, Gwen.
00:07:00We never get to our seats.
00:07:02Lord, I must fly.
00:07:03I'll see you after the game, Gwen.
00:07:04Yes, darling.
00:07:05Goodbye, Inga.
00:07:10Better take Doyce's shirt, George.
00:07:14That's a good girl.
00:07:15Isn't she lovely?
00:07:19Break away, Setchley.
00:07:20You won't be fit for the match.
00:07:21Doyce, about any time.
00:07:23Okay, Doyce, you're part of this team.
00:07:24I know I expected you here hours ago.
00:07:26Sorry, I was in conference.
00:07:28Anyway, I see Phil Morring isn't here yet.
00:07:30Perhaps if everybody is here, we may be able to play some football.
00:07:32You shouldn't wonder.
00:07:40Sorry, Rel.
00:07:47Heavens, Eddie.
00:07:48What's this?
00:07:49I haven't got a shirt.
00:07:51I haven't got a shirt now, there.
00:07:53Shut up.
00:07:54I'm just saying.
00:07:55No shirts anywhere.
00:07:56Sure.
00:07:57Just a minute.
00:07:58Budge!
00:07:58Hello.
00:07:59What's the matter now?
00:08:00Where are these boys' shirts?
00:08:01There's none other than here.
00:08:02I left every player's shirt on his old hook.
00:08:05There he is.
00:08:06Got them.
00:08:06He's got them all on.
00:08:16It's going to be cold out there with nothing to do in gold.
00:08:20Cranky.
00:08:21Don't tell me the jolly old rules let you down.
00:08:23Yes, old boy.
00:08:24I had to abandon it.
00:08:25Tut, tut.
00:08:26Now, come on on, Mr. Doyce.
00:08:27You're next to my table.
00:08:28Sir, she won't let you alone, eh, Phil?
00:08:30Why don't you mind your own business?
00:08:31Why don't you grow up?
00:08:33Now, get a move on, boys.
00:08:34Only ten minutes to go.
00:08:56Good afternoon, everybody.
00:08:57This is George Allison calling from the Arsenal Stadium, London.
00:09:02A great day has arrived at last.
00:09:04We'll be able to see this long-anticipated charity match
00:09:06between the Trojans, the famous amateur team, and the Arsenal.
00:09:11We have been fortunate in securing the services
00:09:13of a very famous commentator.
00:09:16I'm perfectly certain you will all recognize
00:09:19the well-known voice of Mr. E.B. H. Emmett,
00:09:22who is appearing today by kind permission
00:09:24of the Goemond British News.
00:09:26Now, Mr. Emmett,
00:09:28it's up to you to give us all the thrills of the match.
00:09:30Well, I certainly will do my best,
00:09:32and I'm sure it will be a thrilling match.
00:09:34I certainly hope so,
00:09:34because there's a record crowd here,
00:09:36an enormous crowd.
00:09:37The stadium's absolutely packed.
00:09:42What are you brushing, George?
00:09:43Come on, let me try to get the right number.
00:09:45All right, sir, I don't want to.
00:09:46Come on, lads.
00:09:46Why are you talking?
00:09:48Hey!
00:09:49Hey!
00:09:50Come on, let me.
00:09:52And the teams are coming out now.
00:09:54Arsenal coming out first,
00:09:55led by their captain,
00:09:56Eddie Hatfield.
00:10:05And now the program,
00:10:06led by Charlie.
00:10:11You'd like to look at that fellow,
00:10:12do you?
00:10:13Yes, Tom, I do.
00:10:14I'm keen to see how he gets on this afternoon.
00:10:18The band has blown itself out,
00:10:20and the referee's just bringing out the ball,
00:10:22so it won't be long now.
00:10:23The two captains are trotting up to the centre
00:10:27to shake hands with everybody in sight
00:10:28and toss for choice of ends.
00:10:30Eddie Hapgood has the coin,
00:10:31Charlie calls to it,
00:10:32but yes,
00:10:33Trojans are defending the clock end of the field.
00:10:38Arsenal kick off,
00:10:38Drake to Bryn Jones
00:10:39and out to Bastion on the left wing.
00:10:40Now back to Bryn Jones.
00:10:45Torben punches away.
00:10:49Drake has it on the right,
00:10:50and he's going to shoot.
00:10:53But Torben saves it nicely again,
00:10:54and clears.
00:10:55Dois hits it.
00:10:58That boy certainly looks good.
00:11:02Now the Trojans are getting the ball away
00:11:03into the Arsenal half.
00:11:05Welcock has it,
00:11:06passes to Brown.
00:11:07Hapgood tackles him.
00:11:09Brown still has it,
00:11:10and he shoots.
00:11:12But Swindon clears.
00:11:13Terrific excitement
00:11:14as the game swings away
00:11:15from the Arsenal goal.
00:11:21Play in the Trojans' half.
00:11:22The ball goes back.
00:11:24Arsenal left back has it.
00:11:26He bangs it up.
00:11:27Up it goes,
00:11:28and Jurner and Bremler jump for it.
00:11:30Wanky, up, bernie.
00:11:31Wanky, up, bernie.
00:11:32Oi, oi, cut the grass.
00:11:34The ref can't see.
00:11:37The game is on again,
00:11:38up in the centre of the field,
00:11:39and now it's Arsenal's turn to attack.
00:11:41The ball goes up to Kirshen.
00:11:43He's racing on.
00:11:45He shoots,
00:11:46and a grand save.
00:11:49Corner against Trojans.
00:11:50Oi, run, oi.
00:11:51Don't keep blowing that whistle.
00:11:52Blow your nose down.
00:11:53Yeah!
00:11:55Kirshen takes it.
00:11:56Nicely in,
00:11:57but the amateur boys
00:11:57are onto it like lightning.
00:12:01Now Bryn Jones has it.
00:12:03Don't muck it about.
00:12:04Pass to Bastion.
00:12:05And the boys away.
00:12:10The centre.
00:12:12Shoot!
00:12:13No, another grand save by Torjans.
00:12:16This is a terrific game.
00:12:18Amateur, professional,
00:12:19they're all playing like heroes.
00:12:20Now Mayer is onto it,
00:12:21and he passes up,
00:12:23but Garrow has it.
00:12:25Deuce takes it away.
00:12:27Keep an eye on Deuce.
00:12:29He shoots,
00:12:29and Swindon tips it over,
00:12:31giving a corner against Arsenal.
00:12:32How do you like that, Mr. Ellison?
00:12:34Oh, it's not a goal yet.
00:12:35Don't hold the ball so much, Deuce.
00:12:36You're not all that good.
00:12:37I don't need your advice.
00:12:41Sedgley takes the kick,
00:12:43but Arsenal defence have got it away.
00:12:44Now Maring has it.
00:12:46Look out there.
00:12:47Hey, Deuce and Maring in collision.
00:12:48Maring's hurt by the look of it.
00:12:59Oh, he banged his head.
00:13:00And the referee drops the ball,
00:13:12and the game is on again.
00:13:14Arsenal have it.
00:13:15That's Drake coming down now like a hurricane.
00:13:17Shoot!
00:13:18And Torben saves the game.
00:13:23Nearing the end of the first half now,
00:13:24and there's no score yet.
00:13:27Here's Arsenal pressing again.
00:13:29Drake has it.
00:13:30Out on the left to Bryn Jones.
00:13:31Bryn runs in.
00:13:32It's dangerous now.
00:13:33Back to Drake.
00:13:34Drake's onto it.
00:13:35Over to Kirshen.
00:13:36This time it's a goal.
00:13:39First play to the Arsenal.
00:13:40One nil.
00:13:41And about 30 seconds to go for half-time.
00:13:46Yes, this game is living up to all its promise of thrill.
00:13:48A real dogfight.
00:13:50Backwards and forwards.
00:13:51And when you consider the Arsenal reputation among the professional teams,
00:13:54you certainly must hand it to these Trojans.
00:13:56They're putting up a wonderful show.
00:13:57The score at half-time is Arsenal one.
00:14:05Trojans no.
00:14:06And that's just how we like it.
00:14:08Go on up to the left.
00:14:09Well done, boys.
00:14:10Go on up to the left.
00:14:11I don't know.
00:14:14Go on up to the left.
00:14:18Well, never mind, man.
00:14:19It's only the first half.
00:14:21We won't beat you like that again.
00:14:23I'm sorry.
00:14:24Morning.
00:14:25Let me have a look at that.
00:14:25I'm sorry about that, Phil.
00:14:27Stay in position, next half, Jack.
00:14:32Who's that for?
00:14:33Mr. Doyce of the Trojans.
00:14:35It's marked urgent.
00:14:37How are we going, Sarge?
00:14:39Well, one up, son.
00:14:40Yippee!
00:14:44Here, listen, boys.
00:14:46Look here, all you've got to do is to quicken up in this second half
00:14:49and you've got to absolutely beat.
00:14:51I know you're all a bit nervous.
00:14:52There's nothing in the world to worry about.
00:14:53See?
00:14:55Oh, I say, Doyce, try and remember you're part of a team.
00:15:00Don't be so selfish of a ball.
00:15:02For heaven's sake, will you let me play my own game?
00:15:04No, no, don't do that.
00:15:05We don't want to lose the match.
00:15:06Right.
00:15:10Now, let's have a look at this.
00:15:13Do you need a stitch, Jimmy?
00:15:14No, no, sir.
00:15:14This just agrees.
00:15:16I'll do this.
00:15:17You go in the grass, the lads.
00:15:17Right, sir.
00:15:18Here.
00:15:18Here.
00:15:27Here.
00:15:28Here, gentlemen.
00:15:29Congratulations from your girlfriends.
00:15:32Mr. Tully.
00:15:33Setsley.
00:15:35Yarrow.
00:15:37Torben.
00:15:38Helen.
00:15:39Who's Helen?
00:15:41Women are not allowed here, you know.
00:15:42Ah, but that's Helen of Troy, the face that sank a thousand ships.
00:15:46Say thank you, Helen.
00:15:47Ain't there ya?
00:15:48I almost thought Helen was a horse.
00:15:50Oh, there's a part for Mr. Doyce.
00:15:56To you, Mr. Doyce, one of your admirers, I suppose.
00:15:59Essentially.
00:16:00Come along, now, boys.
00:16:21On your toes.
00:16:22If you're only one down, you'll get on this half.
00:16:23Absolutely.
00:16:31Where's Kindlehead?
00:16:32Went out the other way, I think.
00:16:38Come on, champs.
00:16:39Get a move on.
00:16:49Come along, Mr. Murray.
00:16:50For heaven's sake, get a move on.
00:16:54Teams are coming out now for the second half.
00:17:00It all depends on the first 15 minutes, Jimmy, and whether our boys can hold them.
00:17:05Oh, they'll do it all right, Mr. Kindlehead.
00:17:07Yes, sir.
00:17:09It's orderly.
00:17:09It's a good time.
00:17:10Trojans kick off this time.
00:17:10Grage kicks off to Doyce, and Doyce snaps it out to the left wing.
00:17:15Setchley has it, and he's racing ahead in the best bastion style.
00:17:18It's a goal. It must be. No, Swindon dives. He's got it some other. Quick, he's up and he's cleared beautifully.
00:17:24Bravo, Swindon. Bravo. I couldn't have done it better myself.
00:17:27Trojans again attacking. They're going all out to wipe up that odd goal.
00:17:32Sensation. Here's an appeal for hands in the penalty area.
00:17:37Yes, the referee's allowing it. This is serious.
00:17:39You're telling me.
00:17:43What a wreck!
00:17:48Joyce is taking the kick. Is this the equaliser?
00:17:58Yes, he scored like a bullet in the top corner.
00:18:01With a crashing drive, Joyce scored from the penalty and it's Arsenal 1, Toton 1.
00:18:06Oh, what a basket. What was that you saying? I said, what a blaster, sir, didn't I?
00:18:11I've had me eye on you all the match. That's what I told you. Let me not in the game.
00:18:15That's what I told you about.
00:18:16That's what I told you about.
00:18:17That's what I told you about.
00:18:18That's what I told you about.
00:18:23They're just waiting now for Swindon to kick off after that goal.
00:18:27There it goes. Drake to Bryn Jones and over to Bremner.
00:18:30Arsenal are pressing now. They're racing forward to the Trojans' goal.
00:18:34Bastion has it.
00:18:36And he shoots and Torben saves. He's playing a wonderful game, that Trojan goal.
00:18:40He's playing a great game.
00:18:45Look, look, what's the matter with Doyce?
00:18:47By Jove, he does look bad.
00:18:49Doyce has just collapsed like a log. It must be some sort of a change or something.
00:18:52I didn't see him get hit.
00:18:53This is a most unlucky accident for the Trojans. Those amateur boys have been playing really magnificent football.
00:19:02Now to lose their crack inside right at a critical time like this, it's appalling luck.
00:19:08Doyce looked pretty bad, too.
00:19:09But nobody seems to know what's the matter with him.
00:19:10Inga, he's dead.
00:19:11He's dead.
00:19:39He's dead.
00:19:47Doyce is being carried off now by the ambulance men and the whistle goes to resume the game.
00:19:56What's up, Tom?
00:19:57Can't tell, Doctor.
00:20:09I don't like the look of him at all.
00:20:15Trojans are playing wonderfully plucky football. Don't forget they're a man short from now on.
00:20:19Now, Chouds, come on the ten men. They've got a sporting chance, but I don't see how they can possibly hold Arsenal down.
00:20:25From the first kick-off, it's been a game of sensation. A strange collision of two Trojans.
00:20:30Arsenal's crashing goal.
00:20:31Game's abandoned!
00:20:32Topped off in the dramatic collapse of the new Trojan player halfway through the second half.
00:20:47Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to have to announce to you a piece of bad news.
00:20:51Jack Doyce is very seriously injured.
00:20:53It has been decided to abandon the match.
00:20:56But both sides are naturally anxious for a decision, so there will be a replay next Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
00:21:02All right.
00:21:30Just a minute, boys, please.
00:21:33How did it happen?
00:21:35It's a bad business.
00:21:36You can change, but you'll have to stay in your dressing rooms.
00:21:38Frank, I've got to get away for a minute. I'll be back.
00:21:40I'm sorry, Philip. It's out of my hands now.
00:21:42All right, boys. Get in the bath.
00:21:44Listen, boys.
00:21:45You can change now, but you've got to remain behind a bit.
00:21:47Boss's orders.
00:21:48Come on, though. Let's get going.
00:21:51I can't tell you anything, gentlemen. You've got to wait and see Mr. Alice.
00:21:54Well, where is he?
00:21:55I don't know if I knew I could tell you.
00:21:56I don't know if I knew I could tell you.
00:21:57I don't know anything about it.
00:21:58I can't tell you.
00:21:59You've got to get a seat.
00:22:01Please, what's happened to Mr. Doyce?
00:22:02I'm sorry, young lady. I'm afraid he's dead.
00:22:05Sorry, boys. You'll get the story later.
00:22:13Who was that girl? Did she give her name?
00:22:15No, sir. Her face seemed familiar, though.
00:22:17That's what I thought.
00:22:18Why, George, what's the big idea?
00:22:20Get me Scotland Yard, please. Whitehall.
00:22:23One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two.
00:22:29One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two, one, two, one, two, one, two.
00:22:41Now, stop, stop!
00:22:46Ladies, ladies, these skirts weren't provided for you by nature.
00:22:51They are meant to enhance your beauty to a lure.
00:22:54You must swish them about a bit and make them look attractive. Do you follow me?
00:22:57Yes, sir.
00:22:58We've only got till Wednesday, ladies.
00:23:00The fair name of the Metropolitan Police Beauty Chorus is at stake.
00:23:03Now, you've got to make it alluring.
00:23:05Now, follow me.
00:23:08Inspector's lady here.
00:23:12Yes, Clinton? What is it?
00:23:14I thought you were at the yard.
00:23:16Yes?
00:23:17A case, Inspector.
00:23:18A case?
00:23:19But, man, I've only got four days to get this shown. I can't take a case now.
00:23:22The Assistant Commissioner thinks it might be murder.
00:23:24Oh.
00:23:27You know, you oughtn't to be doing all this, sir. These men will never be the same again.
00:23:32Oh, that's something to be thankful for.
00:23:34Where's the, um, where's the body?
00:23:36Down to the Arsenal Stadium, one of the players.
00:23:39The Arsenal?
00:23:40Let me see.
00:23:41Where's this the best?
00:23:42You haven't seen this one before, have you?
00:23:45Not bad for ten, Bob.
00:23:47Guaranteed to put any suspected disease at first sight.
00:23:49You and your hats, sir.
00:23:51Well, it's very suitable.
00:23:52All these outdoor fellas with, um, shorts on.
00:23:55What's his name?
00:23:56An amateur. John Doyce.
00:23:58John Doyce.
00:23:59Mm-hmm.
00:24:28It's pretty pictures.
00:24:30Wow, Our time has everything.
00:24:32Oh, wow.
00:24:33I'm good.
00:24:41Matt.
00:24:43You may think you're exposed to your head?
00:24:46You guessed it.
00:24:47JOHNY PADKANO
00:24:50Not that?
00:25:21Glory be.
00:25:34Well, I'm glad it's in the hands of the police anyway.
00:25:37This won't happen on a Saturday.
00:25:39Who was near him when he fell?
00:25:40Nobody, actually.
00:25:42The ball came from a clearance from the Trojan goal,
00:25:45fell in front of Deuss, the inside right, who faltered.
00:25:48Morrowing the right half, seeing that, ran forward,
00:25:52picked up the ball, followed by Bryn Jones, our inside lift.
00:25:56They carried the ball on.
00:25:58At the same time, Leslie Jones moving forward here,
00:26:01seeing Deuss faltering and stumbling, he stopped dead.
00:26:05But nobody was actually near Deuss when he fell.
00:26:08No, not within five yards from him.
00:26:10Nobody could have touched him, Inspector.
00:26:12It must have been his heart. I've seen it happen before.
00:26:13Yes, I dare say you're right, Mr. Kindlitz.
00:26:17Well, I'll go and see the teams at once.
00:26:23Leslie, this is Inspector Slade.
00:26:25How do you do?
00:26:25How do you do?
00:26:26You'd be the nearest man to Deuss when he fell, wouldn't you?
00:26:29Yes, I was, Tom.
00:26:30Can you tell us what happened?
00:26:32When he had the ball, I rushed forward to tackle him.
00:26:35Just as I got there, stumbled and fell to the ground.
00:26:38What did he look like?
00:26:39You were sweating badly and looked very grey.
00:26:42Grey?
00:26:42Yes, he looked terrible.
00:26:43Terrible.
00:26:45Very hot in here, isn't he?
00:26:46Cheers, Robert.
00:26:46Thank you so much.
00:26:48What's all the mystery about?
00:26:49Why are we being kept here?
00:26:54Looks as if you'll be in the replay, George.
00:26:57So what?
00:26:58Nothing.
00:26:59What's biting you?
00:27:00The devil you're driving at.
00:27:01Oh, shut up, George.
00:27:02You're getting nervy.
00:27:03Well, who wouldn't be?
00:27:04Dead, isn't he?
00:27:06After all, there must be somebody here who knows.
00:27:07I'm sorry to keep you waiting, gentlemen.
00:27:10There's just one or two routine questions I'd like to ask.
00:27:13Now, did any of you see Deuss eat or drink anything at half time?
00:27:15Well, he took a slice of lemon, but then so did most of the other boys.
00:27:19Yes, of course.
00:27:19What about the parcel?
00:27:21Yes, that's right.
00:27:22He got a parcel at half time.
00:27:23A parcel?
00:27:24Did anybody see what is in it?
00:27:26Well, it's only a small thing, sir.
00:27:27The commissioner brought it in and gave it to Mr. Deuss myself.
00:27:30Yes.
00:27:32Where are his clothes?
00:27:33Over here, sir.
00:27:37Clinton, get that, Commissioner, will you?
00:27:39Right, sir.
00:27:41It was only a small thing, sir.
00:27:43Right, too.
00:27:44And he sat down here and started to unpack it.
00:27:47There's nothing in here.
00:27:49Almost twins, aren't we?
00:27:53Who was next to him?
00:27:55I was.
00:27:56Is that what you're looking for?
00:27:58Oh, that's the right in the parcel, sir.
00:27:59Oi, oi, oi.
00:28:00Don't touch.
00:28:03Here's the man, sir.
00:28:05Who delivered this?
00:28:06District messenger, sir.
00:28:07Checking that, will you, Clinton?
00:28:08Yes, sir.
00:28:09There's something else, sir.
00:28:09What about that girl, sir?
00:28:10What?
00:28:10There was a girl here after the match, sir, asking for Deuss.
00:28:13That's right.
00:28:14She spoke to me.
00:28:15I told her Deuss was dead.
00:28:17Did she say anything?
00:28:18No, sir.
00:28:19She pretty nearly fainted, sir.
00:28:20I see.
00:28:22Thank you, Sergeant.
00:28:23Thank you, sir.
00:28:25There's one other thing.
00:28:27Did anyone try to get into these rooms from half time onwards until the team returned?
00:28:30No, sir.
00:28:31I'd have seen anybody who did, sir.
00:28:32That's all I want to know.
00:28:34Oh, Clinton.
00:28:35Yes, sir.
00:28:35Check all this litter, will you, and see if you can find it.
00:28:37Very good, sir.
00:28:38But what am I supposed to look for?
00:28:39I haven't the faintest idea.
00:28:43Yet.
00:28:47Pardon me, Mr. Allison.
00:29:07Clever, isn't it?
00:29:20Thank you, Mr. Allison.
00:29:21You found something?
00:29:22How long are you going to keep us here, Inspector?
00:29:25Oh, not very long.
00:29:26Oh, Clinton.
00:29:27Yes, sir?
00:29:27We're looking for a small, sharp, pointed object.
00:29:31Unless you find it, be very careful.
00:29:33Very good, sir.
00:29:36I'm hanging if I can understand it.
00:29:38Sounds a bell one moment, and his heart stops the next.
00:29:41Have you looked at his left thumb?
00:29:42Well, I missed that.
00:29:47Don't take it to heart.
00:29:48You were meant to.
00:29:51Poison.
00:29:52Alkalide, by the action.
00:29:53What now?
00:29:54Well, first, find out what was in that parcel,
00:29:56and who that girl was.
00:29:57Eh?
00:29:58Just a moment, Meadows.
00:29:59Bring your things.
00:30:02Come on.
00:30:03All right, Sergeant.
00:30:10You can stop playing sandcastles.
00:30:12Eh, Doctor?
00:30:13Oh, very well.
00:30:15Oh, hello, Mr. Kindlelet.
00:30:17Where have you been?
00:30:20Well, I'll even keep you any longer, gentlemen.
00:30:22Dr. Meadows rather thinks that death was caused
00:30:24by an obscure form of ketanus,
00:30:26contracted through a scratch on the thumb.
00:30:28Isn't that so, Doctor?
00:30:29Eh?
00:30:29Oh, yes, quite so.
00:30:30Yes, yes.
00:30:31But we must find the object on which
00:30:33Doyce injured himself,
00:30:34owing to the risk of infection.
00:30:36Therefore, in your own interests,
00:30:37Dr. Meadows thinks we ought to have a search.
00:30:40Eh, Doctor Meadows?
00:30:41Yes, absolutely essential.
00:30:44Very tactful of you, Inspector.
00:30:47Why not say Doyce was murdered and have done with it?
00:30:49Keep your head rail.
00:30:50What the Inspector's address is only common sense.
00:30:52Oh, thank you very much.
00:30:53Of course, if you object to being searched...
00:30:55Not me.
00:30:56Go right ahead.
00:30:57Yes, let's get it over.
00:30:59Good.
00:30:59Well, I'll send a couple of men
00:31:01to help Sergeant Clinton.
00:31:03Oh, would you mind staying with the team?
00:31:05Eh, Mr. Allison.
00:31:10Now, look, Allison.
00:31:12Rail was right.
00:31:13So Doyce was murdered.
00:31:15Yes, that search was a blind.
00:31:16Clinton won't find a thing.
00:31:18Whoever killed Doyce got rid of whatever it was
00:31:20ages ago.
00:31:20He's lying about the stadium somewhere,
00:31:22waiting till the murderer sees his chance
00:31:24to get it back.
00:31:25Oh, good heavens.
00:31:26I suppose you'd want half the yard down here
00:31:28now looking for clues.
00:31:29Not on your life.
00:31:30I wait for the clues to come to me.
00:31:32Now, listen, George.
00:31:33Do you mind me calling in George?
00:31:34Not at all, no.
00:31:34Now, about this girl.
00:31:36What did she look like?
00:31:37Oh, she was tall, fair, very pretty.
00:31:40And you know, both the Commissioner and myself
00:31:41are convinced we've seen her somewhere before.
00:31:44What is she wearing?
00:31:46Oh, a long white coat with blue trimmings.
00:31:49A funny sort of hat with a feather in it.
00:31:51Well, like you have there.
00:31:54I thought this is a model.
00:31:56I beg to report, sir.
00:31:57I know, not a thing.
00:31:58No, sir.
00:31:59Oh, bear up.
00:32:00Look, I want to see these men again,
00:32:01but informally at their own convenience.
00:32:03Can you arrange it?
00:32:04Well, we've fixed a game of golf for them
00:32:06with the dyke tomorrow.
00:32:07Would that do?
00:32:08Fine, I'll be there.
00:32:09Clinton, the carriage waits.
00:32:12Adios.
00:32:12Goodbye.
00:32:15And I say to myself,
00:32:16young lady, you're up to something.
00:32:18What time is this?
00:32:19It was about five o'clock.
00:32:20She thought I didn't see her.
00:32:22Ha-ha.
00:32:22But see her I did.
00:32:24Yes, and I saw her last night, too.
00:32:26She was here last night?
00:32:27With him.
00:32:28Very late, it was.
00:32:29They came here in a taxi
00:32:30and left together again today in one,
00:32:32about two o'clock.
00:32:33And it's my opinion she was here all night.
00:32:36You're telling me.
00:32:38Have I ever seen her here before?
00:32:39No, sir.
00:32:40For I have it in my mind
00:32:41I've seen her face somewhere, often.
00:32:43But I can't think where.
00:32:44What is she wearing?
00:32:45She had a long white coat on
00:32:47with blue ornamentations.
00:32:48I think someone's been here before, sir.
00:32:52Aye, Jove, I believe you've hit on something, Clinton.
00:33:03Looks as if this fellow
00:33:04was in the advertising business, sir.
00:33:06Yeah, what they call a layout man.
00:33:09What's that?
00:33:10Sounds like a piano, sir.
00:33:14Next flat, sir.
00:33:15That's the composer.
00:33:16Yeah, that's what he thinks.
00:33:19Mr. Doyce is evidently fond of the ladies.
00:33:21He was no end of a nuisance, sir.
00:33:23The neighbours were always complaining about him.
00:33:25Would you recognise the girl
00:33:26on the white coat from any of these?
00:33:27I don't know, sir.
00:33:28She was far better looking
00:33:29than any of them.
00:33:32Here's his diary, sir.
00:33:34Now then, she did miss some.
00:33:35Perhaps Padresky can help us.
00:33:45Will you stop that row?
00:33:53Live and neck live, Doyce.
00:33:55How about that stinking row
00:33:56you kicked up this morning
00:33:57with your friend?
00:33:58If you don't shut up,
00:33:59I'll come in and wring your neck.
00:34:01Oh, you will, will you?
00:34:03Now, how'd you do?
00:34:09I beg your pardon.
00:34:10I thought it was young Doyce.
00:34:11Who are you?
00:34:12I'm Inspector Slade
00:34:13of the Criminal Investigation Department.
00:34:14Can you tell me who the man was
00:34:16that Doyce had the row with?
00:34:17Well, as a matter of fact,
00:34:18I didn't catch a word,
00:34:19but I think it was something
00:34:21about some girl.
00:34:22When was this?
00:34:23In the middle of my prestissimo.
00:34:25Now, what time is it?
00:34:27Oh, just before lunch,
00:34:28about one.
00:34:28Oh, thank you so much.
00:34:29And by the way,
00:34:30will you tell young Doyce from me
00:34:31that if there are any more
00:34:32of these infernal rows?
00:34:34All right, I'll tell him
00:34:35when I see him.
00:34:39Did you see anyone
00:34:39come here at about one o'clock?
00:34:41No, I thought not.
00:34:42Where's the phone?
00:34:42On the writing desk, sir.
00:34:44What are you going to do now, sir?
00:34:46Get the yard
00:34:46to find that girl
00:34:47with a white coat.
00:34:48Where's the W?
00:34:51If she was here at the time,
00:34:54she, uh...
00:34:54she must have heard something.
00:34:58Hello?
00:34:59Scotland Yard?
00:35:00Inspector Slade speaking.
00:35:03Give me the information bureau.
00:35:05Sergeant Smithers.
00:35:07Oh, there's no prestissimo again.
00:35:09Oh, Smithers!
00:35:10I want this information
00:35:11to go to the evening papers
00:35:12at once.
00:35:12Angelique.
00:35:25Oh, you're welcome.
00:35:56What are you doing, Gwen?
00:36:27What are you looking at me like that for?
00:36:29Where did you go when you left me at the stadium this afternoon?
00:36:32Oh, for heaven's sake, I had something to do. I just remembered at the studio.
00:36:35What does it matter?
00:36:45You're not to say anything, do you understand?
00:36:48Why do the police want you?
00:36:50Is it because...
00:36:52Why did you say today that Jack Doyce was dead?
00:36:55But I didn't. You're crazy. I couldn't have said it.
00:36:58Gwen, you must tell me. What happened today?
00:37:01I can't. Oh, I've been a fool.
00:37:04There's something else, too, I can't tell you.
00:37:07But, Inga, you must stick by me, do you understand?
00:37:10And don't ask me any questions.
00:37:14If it's Phil, I can't see him.
00:37:16I can't see him like this.
00:37:18Inga, make him go away. Make it all right with him.
00:37:31Hello, Inga. Is Gwen in?
00:37:33Yes, Phil, but she's not well.
00:37:35She's so upset.
00:37:37About Doyce?
00:37:39Of course, we're all upset about Jack.
00:37:41She's not feeling very well, and...
00:37:43And I shouldn't bother her tonight if I were you.
00:37:45Oh, you think I go home, eh?
00:37:47Yes, I think you do.
00:37:48Okay. Well, I'll be playing golf in the morning with the boys.
00:37:50I'll pop round when I get back.
00:37:51That's right. I tell Gwen.
00:37:54Enjoy, sir.
00:37:55Bye, Inga.
00:37:56Bye.
00:37:59Now, where's Doyce's diary?
00:38:01I must put my thinking cap on.
00:38:03Ah, just the thing.
00:38:04A headgear peculiarly conducive to thought, eh, Clinton?
00:38:10Let's have a look.
00:38:15Very interesting.
00:38:16You know, Sergeant Smithers getting a bit broad on the hips.
00:38:19That's the second time he's split that.
00:38:22Very interesting and illuminating.
00:38:24There's an entry here for February the 24th.
00:38:26120 pounds.
00:38:28Somebody called S.
00:38:30Now, give me a girl's name, beginning with S.
00:38:33Sylvia Sibyl Sitch.
00:38:35Sitch?
00:38:36That psyche, you fool, begins with a P.
00:38:41Now, here's another.
00:38:42March the 19th, 75 pounds, S, cash.
00:38:46Now, why cash?
00:38:47Blackmail, sir.
00:38:48Maybe.
00:38:49Yep.
00:38:50Hello?
00:38:51All right, I'll meet here. Go on.
00:38:54Inspector Slade's office.
00:38:56Home office pathologist speaking, sir.
00:38:58Yep.
00:38:59Hello?
00:39:00Slade speaking.
00:39:01Yes.
00:39:02Yes.
00:39:03Well, keep right on with it.
00:39:05Right, thank you.
00:39:06Goodbye.
00:39:07It was poison.
00:39:08They don't know what yet.
00:39:09One of the digitalian groups.
00:39:10Setsley's a chemist, sir.
00:39:11What?
00:39:12Hello?
00:39:13Yes.
00:39:14Yes.
00:39:15Slade speaking.
00:39:16What?
00:39:17They did.
00:39:18They didn't, huh?
00:39:19All right.
00:39:20Keep a close watch and don't touch a thing.
00:39:21Right.
00:39:22Goodbye.
00:39:23That's the stadium speaking.
00:39:24Somebody tried to break into the treatment room, was disturbed and got away.
00:39:27The treatment room, sir?
00:39:28Yes, Clinton, you asked.
00:39:29Don't you see?
00:39:30Now we know it's murder.
00:39:31I've left everything as it was, sir.
00:39:32Excellent.
00:39:33What are we looking for, sir?
00:39:34Hanged if I know, but we've got to find it.
00:39:35The only thing is, mind you don't prick yourself on anything and replace everything exactly
00:39:38where you find it.
00:39:39We've got to finish this job in three days.
00:39:40Why?
00:39:41Because of the replay.
00:39:42No, because of the concert.
00:39:44You know, Clinton, it's heartbreaking to be a producer.
00:39:45I'm going to be a producer.
00:39:46Why?
00:39:47Why?
00:39:48Why?
00:39:49Why?
00:39:50Why?
00:39:51Why?
00:39:52Why?
00:39:53Why?
00:39:54Why?
00:39:55Why?
00:39:56Why?
00:39:57Why?
00:39:58Why?
00:39:59Why?
00:40:00Why?
00:40:01Why?
00:40:02Why?
00:40:03Why?
00:40:04Why?
00:40:05Why?
00:40:06Why?
00:40:07Why?
00:40:08Why?
00:40:09Why?
00:40:10Why?
00:40:11Why?
00:40:12Why?
00:40:13Why?
00:40:14Why?
00:40:15Why?
00:40:16Why?
00:40:17Why?
00:40:18Why?
00:40:19Why?
00:40:20Why?
00:40:21Why?
00:40:22Why?
00:40:23Why?
00:40:24Why?
00:40:25Why?
00:40:26Why?
00:40:27Why?
00:40:28Why?
00:40:29Why?
00:40:30Why?
00:40:31Why?
00:40:32Why?
00:40:33Why?
00:40:34Why?
00:40:35Why?
00:40:36Why?
00:40:37Why?
00:40:38The killer.
00:41:08We've got to hand it to our murderer.
00:41:10He's no fool.
00:41:12But he didn't expect the treatment room to be sealed.
00:41:16And that's where we're going to get him.
00:41:27We'll replace those seas exactly and not a word to us over that I've been in there.
00:41:30Very good, sir.
00:41:32Now, Clinton, did I say three days?
00:41:34Yes, sir.
00:41:35We'll make it in two.
00:41:36Now, let's go and see how those boys play golf.
00:41:44There you are. Ted, pick the bones out of that.
00:41:49Well, that looks a dashed pleaser to yourself.
00:41:51Listen, you fellows are too darn gloomy.
00:41:53Now, what I think about, Joyce, is that...
00:41:55No, shut up.
00:41:56Come and sit down.
00:41:59Back to the bazaar, you...
00:42:04Hello, Slade. Good of you to come. Have a drink.
00:42:09Thank you so much. I'll have a whiskey and soda, if you don't mind.
00:42:11Morning, Slade. Just waiting for the rain to stop as usual.
00:42:13Have a drink, Sergeant.
00:42:14Well, it's all right, Sergeant. We're off duty.
00:42:16Thank you, sir. I'll have the same.
00:42:17Good morning, Inspector. Have you decided who to arrest yet?
00:42:20That's all I've been waiting for.
00:42:22Yeah, what do you mean you've been waiting for?
00:42:23Come on, boys.
00:42:24Don't you touch me!
00:42:25Hey, hey, hey!
00:42:26Hey, hey, hey!
00:42:27Please, please, come on!
00:42:30Go on.
00:42:31I wonder where Tom is. Excuse me, Slade, would you?
00:42:33Of course I will.
00:42:34And all unconscious of their doom, a little victim's play, Slade.
00:42:37Yes.
00:42:38But, of course, that was equally true of Deuss, you know, Kindler.
00:42:40Yes, I know. This is a rotten business, Slade.
00:42:43I know my men, and I like them.
00:42:44I've built this team up from absolutely nothing.
00:42:46If one of them turns out to be a murderer,
00:42:49it smashes up everything we've worked for.
00:42:51Yes, I understand.
00:42:52Tell me, was anybody hurt at the game on Saturday?
00:42:55Hmm?
00:42:56Yes, Maureen was.
00:42:57Doyce got out of position and barged him, and Maureen grazed his head.
00:43:00And I suppose he had it dressed in the treatment room?
00:43:02Yes, he did, as a matter of fact.
00:43:08Excuse me, will you?
00:43:10Oh, good shot.
00:43:16All alone?
00:43:17Sometimes I prefer my own company.
00:43:19I had a chat with most of the others, so I thought perhaps I'd, er...
00:43:22Have a go at me?
00:43:23Far away, Inspector, but I'm afraid I can't help you very much.
00:43:26Oh, well, one never knows, one never knows.
00:43:29You knew Doyce pretty well, didn't you?
00:43:31No more than the others.
00:43:32He didn't exactly hate the fair sex, did he?
00:43:35I don't know anything about Doyce's women.
00:43:38Well, at any rate you use the plural.
00:43:40There was a girl called Stella, or Sheila, or something.
00:43:42She used the stadium last Saturday.
00:43:44I fancy she and Doyce are pretty friendly, weren't they?
00:43:47I tell you, Slade, Doyce's love life is a blank, as far as I'm concerned.
00:43:50Okay, okay, it's just an idea.
00:43:52I said, you, er...
00:43:54Do you mind if I have a pot of that?
00:44:09Oh, Dick!
00:44:11He's all wet.
00:44:12He always was.
00:44:13Is this old Dicky Bird?
00:44:14He looks good out of the wash.
00:44:16Now what's happened, boys?
00:44:17He's got a bit wet.
00:44:18Someone put him in a puddle, sir.
00:44:20You look a different girl now.
00:44:22Very funny, very funny.
00:44:24Where are my trousers?
00:44:25They're drying.
00:44:26You don't want to catch gold, do you?
00:44:28Where are my trousers?
00:44:29Setchley, Setchley, don't move.
00:44:31One moment.
00:44:32The girl.
00:44:33Aye, Inspector, please.
00:44:34The girl with the white coat.
00:44:36So that's the girl that went to Doyce's flat.
00:44:39No wonder everybody recognised her.
00:44:41She's an advertisement model.
00:44:43Clinton, check up on her.
00:44:44Right, sir.
00:44:45Great Scott, that's Phil Morring's girl.
00:44:47Morring!
00:44:54So that's why Doyce wasn't at the pictures on Saturday.
00:44:56She was with him at his flat.
00:44:57Shut up, Setchley!
00:45:02The Brighton police traced her as easy as falling off a log, sir.
00:45:05Her name's Gwen Lees, 6 Welford Mews, Baker Street.
00:45:07All right, hop in.
00:45:08Right, sir.
00:45:10What time did Phil say he'd be here?
00:45:12Well, he didn't tell.
00:45:13He said he'd try and come back quick.
00:45:15You tell him, Gwen?
00:45:16Yes?
00:45:17Do you think I'm a fool?
00:45:18If the police want me, they'll have to find me.
00:45:20Maybe they do.
00:45:21And then what do you tell Phil?
00:45:22Phil loves me.
00:45:23He'll believe me.
00:45:24Anyway, I can handle Phil.
00:45:26I always have done.
00:45:30I'll go.
00:45:40Hello, Phil.
00:45:41It's Inspector Slade.
00:45:42Anthony Slade, Criminal Investigation Department.
00:45:45This is Sergeant Clinton.
00:45:46May we come in?
00:45:48Yes, sir.
00:45:50What do you want?
00:45:51Oh, just a word.
00:45:52Would you mind closing that door?
00:45:53It's rather chilly after the rain.
00:45:55Oh, what a delightful room.
00:45:57Oh, Madame Butterflies.
00:46:00Delicious.
00:46:02Oh, I beg your pardon.
00:46:04Would you mind introducing her?
00:46:05I heard your name.
00:46:07I'm Inge Larsson.
00:46:09Please.
00:46:10What do you want?
00:46:11I should love a cup of tea.
00:46:12I made you coffee.
00:46:13Oh, if you could find a piece of cake.
00:46:17Well?
00:46:18You can't buy Jack Doyce, I suppose.
00:46:19No, not at all.
00:46:20We don't want to dwell on that.
00:46:21We've all been indiscreet in our time.
00:46:22Now, won't you sit down?
00:46:24You see, the trouble with little lapses like these is that they make other people jealous.
00:46:28Now, what we have to do in a case like this is to find out the motive for the murder.
00:46:32Someone to whom Doyce did an injustice.
00:46:34That covers a lot of people.
00:46:35Yes, you'll pardon my saying so, Miss Lee, but I think he treated you very badly.
00:46:40You're not suggesting that I have?
00:46:41Oh, no, not for a moment.
00:46:43Oh, by Jove, what a lovely ring.
00:46:45Oh, of course, I was forgetting.
00:46:46You and Morring are engaged, aren't you?
00:46:48Yes.
00:46:49Yes, a charming fellow.
00:46:50Very well to do, I believe.
00:46:52Tell me, was he very jealous?
00:46:55When?
00:46:56Ah, oh, no coffee.
00:46:58Do not listen to him.
00:47:00He's trying to trap you.
00:47:01No, no, no, young lady.
00:47:02Don't tell him anything.
00:47:04He can't make you.
00:47:05What's the matter with you?
00:47:06I can look after myself.
00:47:07But, Gwen.
00:47:08It isn't you.
00:47:09It's Philip.
00:47:13The kettle is boiling.
00:47:15Would you mind?
00:47:17It's Clinton.
00:47:18Help her, will you?
00:47:19Very good, sir.
00:47:20You were at Doyce's flat on Friday night.
00:47:27You know who came to see him on Saturday morning.
00:47:30Somebody who had a quarrel with Doyce.
00:47:32Was it Morring?
00:47:33I tell you, I don't know anything.
00:47:35Now, it's no good trying to shield a murderer.
00:47:36That won't help at all.
00:47:37It's much safer to come out of the truth.
00:47:39Who should I be shielding?
00:47:40Well, that's what I'm here to find out.
00:47:42Now then, was it Morring?
00:47:43Now, you look here, miss.
00:47:45Now, listen, young lady.
00:47:46Gwen is not shielding anyone.
00:47:49I tell you the truth.
00:47:50Inga.
00:47:51It's because she knows her job,
00:47:52if people know she is with Doyce.
00:47:54Yes, that's very clever,
00:47:55but I still want that cup of coffee.
00:47:56Clinton.
00:47:57Yes, sir.
00:47:58See that she makes it this time.
00:48:00She won't make it for me, sir.
00:48:02I make it.
00:48:06Is that true?
00:48:07Yes.
00:48:08But, my dear Miss Lee, why on earth didn't you tell me?
00:48:10You are quite human, you know.
00:48:12The trouble is that people don't trust the police.
00:48:15I've known of dozens of cases where the police...
00:48:17Don't tell me the coffee.
00:48:25What, only two cups?
00:48:26Oh, no, but I insist that...
00:48:27We don't want any, thank you.
00:48:29Oh, well, Clinton, will you join me in?
00:48:30I'd love it, sir.
00:48:31Oh, and a real Swedish cake.
00:48:33They're delicious.
00:48:34Mmm.
00:48:35I oughtn't, but I really must.
00:48:37All right, Clinton, I'll go.
00:48:42Oh, hello, morning old chap.
00:48:43You'll come in just in time.
00:48:44Excuse me a minute.
00:48:45I'm afraid I've beaten you to it.
00:48:49Oh, that's the most amazing thing.
00:48:50Look who's here.
00:48:51We were just talking about you.
00:48:52Just having some coffee.
00:48:53Won't you join us?
00:48:54No?
00:48:55Well, do sit down, everybody.
00:48:56I see.
00:48:57Morning, I can see that you're at a loss.
00:48:58You're wondering why I'm here.
00:48:59Well, we've had a most interesting little chat.
00:49:00You know, women are the most extraordinary difficult people to understand.
00:49:01Uncertain, coy and hard to please.
00:49:02Sugar, sir.
00:49:03One, please.
00:49:04What are you doing here?
00:49:05Oh, purely social.
00:49:06As a matter of fact, I wanted to invite these charming ladies to the concert on Wednesday,
00:49:11the Metropolitan Police Follies.
00:49:12I'm the producer.
00:49:13Could I introduce you to the audience?
00:49:14I'll give you a little coffee.
00:49:15I'll give you a little coffee.
00:49:16Won't you join us?
00:49:17No?
00:49:18Well, do sit down, everybody.
00:49:19I see.
00:49:20Morning, I can see that you're at a loss.
00:49:21You're wondering why I'm here.
00:49:22Well, we've had a most interesting little chat.
00:49:23You know, women are the most extraordinary difficult people to understand.
00:49:26Uncertain, coy and hard to please.
00:49:27Sugar, sir.
00:49:28One, please.
00:49:29What are you doing here?
00:49:30What are you doing here?
00:49:31What are you doing here?
00:49:32What are you doing here?
00:49:33What are you doing here?
00:49:34I'm the producer.
00:49:35Could I interest you in a ticket?
00:49:36No, you couldn't.
00:49:37Oh, no, of course.
00:49:38You may be detained elsewhere.
00:49:39Well?
00:49:43Skål.
00:49:51So the Swedes make coffee with Epsom salts.
00:49:54Well, under the circumstances, we'd better be running along.
00:49:57No, no, no.
00:49:58Please don't get up, anybody.
00:49:59I expect you two won't have a chat together.
00:50:02I'll be seeing you quite soon.
00:50:03Come along, Clinton.
00:50:24Well, I know where I am now.
00:50:26You and Doyce must have thought I was a fool.
00:50:29Phil, let me explain.
00:50:30I had hoped that you'd come to your senses.
00:50:33Oh, I know I've been a fool, but these things just happen, and all the time they don't mean anything.
00:50:42We love each other, Phil.
00:50:43Can't we forget it ever happened?
00:50:45It's a bit late for that now, isn't it?
00:50:46Late?
00:50:47Doyce is dead.
00:50:48But...
00:50:49But I don't understand you.
00:50:50No, you wouldn't.
00:50:54Phil, you've got to listen to me.
00:50:58We used to be so happy together.
00:51:00We could be again.
00:51:01We could be again.
00:51:02I'm sorry, Gwen.
00:51:03I'm through.
00:51:04But, darling, I promise you, everything's all right now.
00:51:08Please, Phil, listen to me.
00:51:09What's happened?
00:51:19Gwen.
00:51:20Come.
00:51:21Sit down.
00:51:27You.
00:51:28That's what you wanted, wasn't it?
00:51:30You're in love with him.
00:51:31You turned him against me.
00:51:33Gwen, you're mad.
00:51:35I've never seen you like this.
00:51:40He thinks he's finished with me, doesn't he?
00:51:43Well, I haven't finished with him.
00:51:46I could put Phil in such a tough spot if I wanted to.
00:51:50They think he did it, don't they?
00:51:53Well, supposing he did.
00:51:55Supposing they're not so far wrong.
00:51:58What do you mean?
00:52:00Gwen.
00:52:01He hated Jack.
00:52:02I'm so jealous of him.
00:52:08You've had the most awful rows with him.
00:52:10They don't know about that, do they?
00:52:14Well, supposing I tell them.
00:52:16He didn't.
00:52:18You couldn't.
00:52:20Couldn't I?
00:52:32Phil!
00:52:33Phil!
00:52:36He's not here, I'm afraid.
00:52:38But if you have a message for him, I'm sure to be seeing him.
00:52:41No, thank you.
00:52:43Only too glad, you know.
00:52:48Clinton.
00:52:50Things are beginning to hum.
00:52:53You will pardon my saying so, sir, but do you think we shall let him get away?
00:52:56Yes.
00:52:57Neither of them ready to talk yet.
00:52:58When they are, we'll be waiting for them.
00:52:59I see.
00:53:00You don't, but you will.
00:53:01Yes, sir.
00:53:02Well, what do we do now, sir?
00:53:03Well, first a call to the yard.
00:53:04I want Monning trailed.
00:53:05I want to know absolutely everything he does.
00:53:10Clinton, we're like cabinet ministers in a crisis.
00:53:12We're going barking up another gum tree.
00:53:27Sorry, miss.
00:53:30Have you been the juice of a time, Clinton?
00:53:31Well, I had to get in quietly, sir.
00:53:32Oh, I like this.
00:53:33I was always fond of stinks.
00:53:37I hope you didn't do this, Clinton.
00:53:38Don't think so, sir.
00:53:39Do you suppose it's quite all right, sir?
00:53:40Breaking in here without a warrant, sir?
00:53:41Oh, yes.
00:53:43It's a heaven sent chance we can have a good look around in peace and quiet.
00:53:45You've been the deuce of a time, Clinton.
00:53:47Well, I had to get in quietly, sir.
00:53:51Oh, I like this.
00:53:53I was always fond of stinks.
00:53:56I hope you didn't do this, Clinton.
00:53:58Don't think so, sir.
00:54:01Do you suppose it's quite all right, sir,
00:54:04breaking in here without a warrant, sir?
00:54:06Oh, yes, it's a heaven sent chance.
00:54:08We can have a good look around in peace and quiet.
00:54:11You know, everybody has two sides to their nature.
00:54:16For instance, who'd have thought that...
00:54:20Who'd have thought that a clown like Setchley...
00:54:22Who'd have thought that...
00:54:24Don't take any notice of me, sir.
00:54:26Thank you very much.
00:54:28What I was going to say was,
00:54:30who'd have thought that a clown like Setchley could have a place like this?
00:54:33However, that's the policeman's life, isn't it?
00:54:35Seeing what a fellow looks like on the other side.
00:54:38Sometimes it's not a very pleasant sight.
00:54:41No, sir.
00:54:46Ah!
00:54:47What's the matter?
00:54:49A f...
00:54:52A frog?
00:54:54Why a frog?
00:54:55Come on, let's get it.
00:54:58Don't get your good hands on it, you can't have a fool.
00:55:01I'm talking, sir.
00:55:02Don't do anything.
00:55:03Now, slowly does it.
00:55:06Gently.
00:55:09Got him!
00:55:14There.
00:55:15Visitors.
00:55:17Better open the door then, Clinton.
00:55:18Here, Freddie, go in there.
00:55:20And stay put.
00:55:32Oh, it's you, Mr. Rayle.
00:55:38Hello, Inspector.
00:55:39What are you doing down here?
00:55:40Well, I might ask you the same thing, Rayle.
00:55:41Well, I think Setchley was a bit upset about that ragging today.
00:55:42I just came down to tell him there was no ill feeling.
00:55:44What's that?
00:55:45Oh, that's just ready.
00:55:46Nobody you'd know.
00:55:47Hmm.
00:55:48You, um...
00:55:49You come here often?
00:55:50Yes, off and on.
00:55:51We've known each other a long time.
00:55:52Isn't this a bit against regulations, Inspector?
00:55:53Only slightly.
00:55:54I wanted to have a talk with you, Rayle.
00:55:55I'm glad of this opportunity.
00:55:56I was wondering when you'd get around to it.
00:55:58You know I hated Doysse, don't you?
00:56:00I did imagine something of the sort, yes.
00:56:02No doubt you thought I resented his taking my place in the team.
00:56:05Well, I did, but Doysse was a good opportunity to get around to it.
00:56:08Oh, I don't know what to do.
00:56:10What to do?
00:56:11Well, I love it.
00:56:12Well, I'm glad.
00:56:13Well, I love it.
00:56:14I love it.
00:56:15You're not.
00:56:16What to do?
00:56:17I love it.
00:56:18I love it.
00:56:19I love it.
00:56:20I love it.
00:56:21I love it.
00:56:22You're good.
00:56:23I love it.
00:56:24I love it.
00:56:25I love it.
00:56:26Well, I love it.
00:56:27But Doyce was a better player than I, and we wanted to win.
00:56:30And I'll tell you something else, Inspector.
00:56:32Doyce deserved to die. He was rotten through and through.
00:56:38Whoever did it did an executioner's job.
00:56:41Why?
00:56:42You didn't know Doyce.
00:56:44He only wanted what other people already had.
00:56:47Gwen Lee, for instance.
00:56:49You knew that she and Doyce...
00:56:50No, she didn't say a word. I... I merely guessed.
00:56:54Malling's a good sort, Inspector.
00:56:56I watched Doyce play his filthy game.
00:57:00He only did it to show his power over women.
00:57:03It gave him some sort of distorted pleasure to take Gwen away from Phil.
00:57:08He ruined two lives.
00:57:11He deserved to die.
00:57:15But I don't think you'll ever find out who did it.
00:57:18Oh, why?
00:57:19Well, you're up against team loyalty.
00:57:21It's not business, something you don't often meet.
00:57:24You knew Setchley well, and you were a friend of Malling's.
00:57:27Didn't you know? We used to play together.
00:57:29It was a team called Saxon Rovers.
00:57:32And Doyce played in it too.
00:57:34Yes?
00:57:35Quiet.
00:57:36Is that Freddy again?
00:57:37Yes.
00:57:38Setchley.
00:57:39Setchley.
00:57:40Hello, Setchley.
00:57:41Oh, what, sir?
00:57:42I hope you don't mind.
00:57:43We... we just dropped in.
00:57:44At least, erm... Clinton did.
00:57:47Well, what do you want?
00:57:48Oh, nothing much.
00:57:49We just want to see the sort of place you worked in.
00:57:50Microchemistry, isn't it?
00:57:51Yes, I do analysis for various firms.
00:57:52Quite a paying job, I believe.
00:57:53Not bad.
00:57:54I get along.
00:57:55With the money Doyce gave you?
00:57:56Who told you that?
00:57:57Freddy did.
00:57:58He told me you were carrying out research in alkaloids.
00:57:59There's money in that, isn't there?
00:58:00There's money in that, isn't there?
00:58:01There's money in that, isn't there?
00:58:02There's money in that, isn't there?
00:58:03Where is it, Setchley?
00:58:04I don't know what you're talking about.
00:58:05No.
00:58:06No.
00:58:07No.
00:58:08No.
00:58:09No.
00:58:10No.
00:58:11No.
00:58:12No.
00:58:13No.
00:58:14No.
00:58:15No.
00:58:16No.
00:58:17No.
00:58:18No.
00:58:19No.
00:58:20No.
00:58:21No.
00:58:22No.
00:58:23No.
00:58:24No.
00:58:25No.
00:58:26No.
00:58:27No.
00:58:28No.
00:58:29No.
00:58:30No.
00:58:31No.
00:58:32No.
00:58:33You have to know a bit of everything in my job.
00:58:36This thing measures the heartbeats of frogs, doesn't it?
00:58:38You don't need vivisection for microchemistry.
00:58:41You got Doyce to back you.
00:58:43Maybe you persuaded Kindler to put him in the team for the big match.
00:58:46You knew Doyce wanted that!
00:58:48You told him there was a fortune in this research.
00:58:50He gave you money.
00:58:51Clinton, you got the figures.
00:58:52Yes, sir.
00:58:53Yes, sir.
00:58:56February 24th, S, 120 pounds.
00:59:00April 19th, S, 70...
00:59:02Never mind the rest. The gram totals 875 pounds.
00:59:06Perhaps Doyce was getting worried about his money.
00:59:08Wondering how long it'd be before he'd see a return.
00:59:10He had nothing to worry about.
00:59:12Well, I knew I could do it.
00:59:14And you did.
00:59:15You produced a new drug that nobody's heard of yet.
00:59:19That's baffled the police analysts.
00:59:21Well, Setchley, where is it?
00:59:30It's gone. I've made a sample. Digital and sex.
00:59:33It's deadly stuff.
00:59:34You're telling me.
00:59:35Don't be a fool, Dick. Can't you see what he's trying to do?
00:59:38Anyone might have taken it, Inspector.
00:59:40Most of the Trojan team have been down here at one time or another.
00:59:43Team loyalty, eh, Rail?
00:59:45Now listen, Setchley, you owe Doyce money.
00:59:47You were onto something worth a fortune that Doyce would have shared.
00:59:50Doyce was killed by a new and deadly poison.
00:59:54Your digitarian six is missing from your laboratory.
00:59:58Well, you're an intelligent fellow.
00:59:59There's no need for me to tell you of the spot you're in.
01:00:02Your only way out is to find it, Setchley.
01:00:04And find it quick!
01:00:12I told you it was Setchley, sir.
01:00:14Setchley, my foot.
01:00:15Has anybody reported Morring's movement yet?
01:00:17Setchley, my foot.
01:00:19Setchley, my foot.
01:00:20Setchley, my foot.
01:00:21Setchley, my foot.
01:00:22Setchley, my foot.
01:00:22Setchley, my foot.
01:00:23There he is.
01:00:24There he is.
01:00:25There he is.
01:00:29Mr. Phillip!
01:00:31Mr. Phillip!
01:00:32Come on down.
01:00:33The young lady's here to see you.
01:00:35Oh, Gwent.
01:00:38Good old, what are you doing here?
01:00:40Here.
01:00:41Oh, Budge, be an angel and clear out for a moment.
01:00:43May I go along with you?
01:00:50Is it about Gwen?
01:00:51Yes, but...
01:00:53Oh, can't we forget about her, Inga?
01:00:55Oh, please, Phil.
01:00:58When you went, she was saying such horrible things.
01:01:02Phil, I was frightened.
01:01:04What did she say?
01:01:06She said that you had quarrels with Jack Doyce.
01:01:08And if the police knew...
01:01:10Go on.
01:01:11If they knew, then I think you killed Doyce.
01:01:14Do you believe that, Inga?
01:01:16No, Phil, no.
01:01:20Please, Phil, don't you see?
01:01:22You are in danger.
01:01:25Yes, you are.
01:01:26He's a very clever man, that Inspector Slade.
01:01:29He's making trouble as a Gwen to tell him everything.
01:01:33He'll think you did it.
01:01:35But, Inga, what can I do?
01:01:36Please, come and talk with her.
01:01:39It's crazy to think that I killed Jack.
01:01:41It's fantastic.
01:01:47What's the matter?
01:01:48Oh, nothing.
01:01:52Well, I go.
01:01:53You're not going back there.
01:01:55Well, I have nowhere else to go.
01:01:57Wait a minute.
01:02:02Budge?
01:02:03Oh, Budge?
01:02:04Yes, dear?
01:02:06Budge.
01:02:06Can Miss Larson spend the night here?
01:02:08She's got nowhere else to go.
01:02:09Oh, never mind, darling.
01:02:11Come on.
01:02:12You can sleep in me own room.
01:02:13Oh, good old Budge.
01:02:15I shan't be lying.
01:02:16I'm going to put away the car.
01:02:21Inspector Slade's office.
01:02:22It's Thompson, sir.
01:02:24He was trailing Morring.
01:02:25What?
01:02:26Morring slipped these trails out.
01:02:28Give me that.
01:02:28You clumsy, blithering idiot.
01:02:32I suppose you were making out your expense list.
01:02:34Well, how long has he been lost?
01:02:37Well, find him.
01:02:39Morring's been lost for an hour.
01:02:42We've got to find him.
01:02:43We've got to bring in Gwen Lee.
01:02:44We've got to bring in Gwen Lee.
01:02:45Come on.
01:03:02What the devil do you think you're doing?
01:03:03Waking all the place up.
01:03:04Police!
01:03:09No answer, sir.
01:03:10All right, break it in.
01:03:24No one here, sir?
01:03:25No.
01:03:34No.
01:04:00Digital in six, sir.
01:04:04Well, there's no need to look any further, Clinton.
01:04:08We've come full circle.
01:04:11Poor girl, it's suicide, sir.
01:04:13Not on your life.
01:04:24Dice.
01:04:28Dice.
01:04:29She must have been in a hurry when she took these. Mostly bills.
01:04:35What's this?
01:04:41The body was found lying floating in the East Foss.
01:04:46That's all there is.
01:04:50Sounds like Thompson, sir.
01:04:52Oh, nice work, Thompson. Never mind the alibi.
01:04:59I'll put you in the chorus on Wednesday.
01:05:01He's back now, sir.
01:05:02I bet he is.
01:05:03He returned to his house ten minutes ago.
01:05:05That Swedish girl's staying there, too.
01:05:07Shall I have him brought in?
01:05:08No, we'll leave him till tomorrow.
01:05:10Very good, sir.
01:05:12Well, Clinton, at least we know why Gwen Lee was murdered.
01:05:16Because she knew who really killed Dice.
01:05:19She heard him quarrel with Dice on Saturday morning.
01:05:21And the murderer knew that for the first time at the golf club.
01:05:25Then it was Morring, sir.
01:05:27Morring must have quarreled with Gwen Lee after we left here this morning.
01:05:30And tonight, the Larson girl went to warn Morring that Gwen Lee was threatening to talk.
01:05:35It's a desperate job, Clinton.
01:05:37Two murders in two days.
01:05:49Whistler?
01:05:50Yeah.
01:05:51Good morning, Mr. Whittaker.
01:05:54Good morning, Sergeant.
01:05:55Where?
01:05:56Where's young Morring?
01:05:58In the shooting box.
01:05:59Where's that?
01:06:00What's that?
01:06:04Morning, Mr Whittaker.
01:06:12Morning, Sergeant.
01:06:13Where... where's young Mulling?
01:06:15In the shooting box.
01:06:17Where's that?
01:06:19Over there.
01:06:20Thanks.
01:06:32Mr Mulling!
01:06:34What's wrong?
01:06:36Morning.
01:06:42In here, Mr Mulling.
01:06:44Phil!
01:06:46Phil, don't make me come here.
01:06:48One moment.
01:06:50What the devil have you been doing, Slade?
01:06:51That's what I'm asking you, Mulling.
01:06:53What did you do when you left your house at midnight last night?
01:06:56What would you do with a policeman following you?
01:06:58Well, give him the slip.
01:06:59Well, that's what I did.
01:07:00Yes, but in this case, it's rather unfortunate.
01:07:01What did Miss Larson tell you when she came to see you last night?
01:07:04I tell you it was nothing.
01:07:07What are you getting at, Slade?
01:07:08She came to warn you.
01:07:10Told you that Gwen Lee was threatening to tell the police that you killed John Doyce.
01:07:13No!
01:07:14No, it's not true!
01:07:15That's a damn lie!
01:07:16You went out.
01:07:18Broke loose from the man who was following you.
01:07:20Slade, what happened last night?
01:07:23Gwen Lee was found murdered.
01:07:24Gwen, dead?
01:07:35I didn't kill a Slade.
01:07:37I'd like to believe that, Mulling.
01:07:38I told you it was unfortunate.
01:07:40You had a grievance against Doyce.
01:07:41He was killed.
01:07:42You quarrelled with your fiancée.
01:07:44And she didn't last long either.
01:07:46And you can't account for any of your actions.
01:07:49Looks bad, doesn't it, Clinton?
01:07:50Highly incriminating, sir.
01:07:52Phil did not do it.
01:07:53Please, he did not.
01:07:55It was all my fault.
01:07:57I was frightened and I went to him and...
01:08:01Oh, Phil!
01:08:03Clinton, better take Miss Larson to a taxi.
01:08:06Very good, sir.
01:08:16Well, what are you going to do? Arrest me?
01:08:18I could, but I won't.
01:08:20No, I'm going to let you play tomorrow.
01:08:22Fine, then I'll start picking out my next victim.
01:08:25Now, I'll risk that.
01:08:27I know exactly how you feel.
01:08:29I've got a show of my own coming off tomorrow.
01:08:31I should hate to miss it.
01:08:32What?
01:08:33Great Scott, you're almost a human being, Inspector.
01:08:35Oh, thank you.
01:08:38Have you ever seen that before?
01:08:40It looks like one of our team notices.
01:08:41Kindert sends them out.
01:08:44Yes, that's his typewriter.
01:08:45The R jumps.
01:08:45You played for the Saxon Rovers at Weichester, didn't you?
01:08:48Yes.
01:08:50What's that got to do with it?
01:08:51I thought perhaps you knew.
01:08:58Look here, Inspector.
01:08:59Is this true about Gwynn Lee?
01:09:03It's terrible.
01:09:04Morning.
01:09:05You better get have a rub down.
01:09:07Yes, off you go, Philip.
01:09:08Practice is over now.
01:09:09We don't want to have you catching cold.
01:09:11Don't worry, Inspector.
01:09:12I shan't let you down.
01:09:13Come on, Frank.
01:09:18I've sent her home, sir.
01:09:20Oh, thanks.
01:09:22We know there were four men at Weichester.
01:09:24One was murdered and then there were three.
01:09:27I wonder if there was a fifth.
01:09:30Clinton, quick.
01:09:32Where's that match program for last Saturday?
01:09:36There it is, sir.
01:09:41It's been under our noses all this time
01:09:43while we've been barking up gum trees.
01:09:45Here we are.
01:09:47Mr. Francis Kindlett.
01:09:49The Secretary of the Trojans, Mr. Francis...
01:09:50... of the Canadians.
01:09:52Kindlett also founded the well-known Saxon Rovers
01:09:55at Weichester in 1930.
01:09:57Did you get it, Sergeant?
01:09:58No, sir.
01:09:58The fifth man.
01:09:59That fellow was right.
01:10:00What's his name?
01:10:00Rail.
01:10:01He said we were up against team loyalty.
01:10:06Clinton, do you remember anything about Roman history?
01:10:08What, sir?
01:10:09The Romans colonized England.
01:10:10They built camps.
01:10:12Castra, Chester, Weichester.
01:10:16They surrounded them with moats.
01:10:18Fosse.
01:10:19Fosses.
01:10:19That cutting, sir?
01:10:20The East Fosse.
01:10:21Now, Dois received this the Thursday before the match.
01:10:24I bet every hat in my wardrobe
01:10:25it was sent as a warning.
01:10:27Get on to the Weichester police.
01:10:28Find out if that cutting was from a local paper.
01:10:30Get the details by getting nearer the motive.
01:10:32Hello?
01:10:34Revenge.
01:10:36Hello.
01:10:36Weichester police speaking.
01:10:38Right.
01:10:40The body was found lying floating in the East Fosse.
01:11:06About seven o'clock in the morning.
01:11:25I saw her in the East Fosse on my way to work.
01:11:27Directly I had a look.
01:11:28I knew it was Mary Kindlet.
01:11:30I couldn't have made any mistakes, sir,
01:11:32because I passed quite close to the body,
01:11:34and I've often seen the young lady of her.
01:11:36Death was due to drowning.
01:11:38The dead girl had been in the Fosse for several hours.
01:11:40Yes.
01:11:43I tried to cheer her up.
01:11:44That's why I took her to the dance.
01:11:46But she seemed very depressed,
01:11:48and about halfway through, I found that she'd left.
01:11:52Later, I heard that her body had been found.
01:11:55I found a ring on her dressing table.
01:11:58There was a chain attached to it,
01:12:00and I guess that she wore it around her neck.
01:12:02Her mother had just died,
01:12:05and Mary knew that if she got married,
01:12:08I should be left alone.
01:12:11I think she wants to keep it secret for the time being.
01:12:13There are many unsatisfactory features in this case.
01:12:20Why has the fiancé not come forward?
01:12:23Now, before giving their verdict,
01:12:25members of the jury must ask themselves,
01:12:27are they satisfied with the evidence?
01:12:30And the verdict?
01:12:31Accidental death.
01:12:32Then the gossips get to work.
01:12:33Suicide.
01:12:34Kindlet can't stand it.
01:12:35He leaves the place.
01:12:35He did it, sir.
01:12:36Deutch drove the girl to suicide.
01:12:37Kindlet had got him into the team.
01:12:39He knew suspicion would rest on Morring,
01:12:40Ray and Setchley because they all had motives.
01:12:42And then team loyalty would keep the story quiet.
01:12:43It was all set for him, sir.
01:12:45Kindlet's your man.
01:12:47Can you see a Mr. Kindlet, sir?
01:12:49Wouldn't it be funny if Mr. Kindlet called?
01:12:53Show him in.
01:12:54Come in, sir.
01:12:57Oh, hello, Kindlet.
01:12:58Glad to see you.
01:12:59Oh, Slade.
01:13:00Look here, Slade, there's something I've got to tell you.
01:13:02I care quite about it up to now,
01:13:03but since poor Gwen leaves.
01:13:05Was it about this?
01:13:07Oh, no, you know already.
01:13:10You'd better have a drink.
01:13:11What, here, sir?
01:13:12Oh, I think so, Clinton.
01:13:14Purely medicinally, of course.
01:13:16Get some glasses, will you?
01:13:24Up yourself, Sergeant.
01:13:25Thank you, sir.
01:13:26Now, listen, Kindlet, you yourself say that you now hold Doyce responsible for your daughter's death,
01:13:38and yet you put him in the Trojan team for the Arsenal match.
01:13:40Well, I love football.
01:13:41It's my whole life.
01:13:42He was a brilliant player, and the team needed Doyce.
01:13:44Does that make sense?
01:13:45Perhaps, but I'm only a policeman.
01:13:47What about the others?
01:13:48There were three Trojans in the old Saxon Rovers, apart from Doyce.
01:13:52Was your daughter particularly fond of anyone?
01:13:54The whole team adored her.
01:13:55Morring, Setchley, and Rayle included.
01:13:57What do you mean?
01:13:58You said something in your evidence about a ring.
01:14:00Yes, on her dressing table.
01:14:01But your daughter didn't tell you that she was engaged.
01:14:04Oh, no, but...
01:14:04Then you can't be certain.
01:14:06You were the only person to see this ring, Kindlet.
01:14:08Are you quite sure that you didn't mistake it for something else?
01:14:13Well, I suppose it's possible.
01:14:14It was such a long time ago.
01:14:16I really don't know.
01:14:17Are you quite sure that this ring existed?
01:14:19But, sir, what are you getting at, Slade?
01:14:21This.
01:14:22The only reason we have for believing in the existence of the fiancée
01:14:24is your evidence about the ring.
01:14:28Give me another ring, Clinton.
01:14:30Yes, sir.
01:14:31One last question, Kindlet.
01:14:33We policemen sometimes have rotten jobs.
01:14:35We get to like people instead of treating them as chessmen.
01:14:38I want you to help me.
01:14:40Do you know who killed John Doyce?
01:14:43I've told you all I can, Slade.
01:14:44Well, tomorrow's the deadline.
01:14:47I shall have all the proof I need for an arrest after the match.
01:14:56But why the fishing hat?
01:14:58This is the hat I make my arrests in.
01:15:01All set, sir.
01:15:02Oh, let's go.
01:15:03Oh, George, don't forget to do your stuff.
01:15:07Hello?
01:15:08That's for you, Inspector.
01:15:11Hello?
01:15:13Yes?
01:15:15What?
01:15:17Good heavens!
01:15:19All right, over there.
01:15:20Goodbye.
01:15:22You may not know it, but this is going to be your big day, Sergeant.
01:15:25Look here, you fellows.
01:15:28Try and forget what happened, if you can.
01:15:30Play your usual game, but remember, today we're not playing to beat the Arsenal, anything of that sort, or to break a record.
01:15:38We're just playing to show that, well, whatever happens, the game still goes on, you see.
01:15:43That's all.
01:15:44I know you'll all do your best.
01:15:45Oh, hello, George.
01:15:46I'll show up.
01:15:46Good luck.
01:15:47Oh, thanks.
01:15:48Good afternoon, Trojans.
01:15:54It's that man again.
01:15:56For the last time, I hope.
01:15:59Well, this business isn't cleared up yet, and maybe it never will be.
01:16:02All I want feelings about...
01:16:03Oh, Inspector, may we have the treatment room open?
01:16:07We always have to have them matched as well now.
01:16:08Yes, of course.
01:16:09No use to us.
01:16:10Thank you, Lance.
01:16:18Come on, boys.
01:16:18It's time of your honor.
01:16:19Don't let them rush you at the beginning.
01:16:20Just play your usual game, and you'll be all right.
01:16:22That's good stuff, then.
01:16:25Coming, Frank.
01:16:27Here.
01:16:33Oh, Clinton, get the bowl down.
01:16:41Very good, sir.
01:16:42Just a little trap, Clinton, to catch our murderer red-handed.
01:17:08Just let him try and get his ring back now without giving himself away.
01:17:12Put that away, please.
01:17:29What is that stuff, sir?
01:17:31Romofenol.
01:17:32What's it for?
01:17:33Take your glove off.
01:17:36We'll soon find out.
01:17:38Now, Sergeant, I want you to go to the trainer's box.
01:17:40I'll join you there in a minute.
01:17:41Very good, sir.
01:17:42Sergeant.
01:18:02Sergeant.
01:18:02Sir.
01:18:33Turn your program, miss. Here, have mine.
01:19:03Hey, see the inspector?
01:19:23He went half an hour ago, Sarge.
01:19:25What? What? Went? What do you mean?
01:19:28Well, he was called back to headquarters on another job.
01:19:30He said for you to carry on.
01:19:32He left you this.
01:19:33Said it would bring you luck.
01:19:38Blimey.
01:19:39Hello. Give me Scott from the yard.
01:20:03Give me Inspector Slade.
01:20:09Quick.
01:20:09I don't know where he is. You'll have to find him.
01:20:12Yes. Yes. What?
01:20:14Who is it?
01:20:15Oh, it's you, Clinton.
01:20:16Yes, sir.
01:20:17Sorry, sir.
01:20:18What do I do now, sir?
01:20:19Do?
01:20:21Well, you can't do anything
01:20:22till the ring's gone from the horsehair bowl.
01:20:24It's still there, sir.
01:20:39Oh, that's interesting.
01:20:40Kindle... Yes, that's all right.
01:20:42Kindle is taking his time.
01:20:43If it is, Kindle it.
01:20:45Look, wait till after half time.
01:20:46What is all this? What is all this?
01:21:12Looking for it, Inspector, Sergeant.
01:21:14Try a slice of lemon, Sergeant. That's sharp.
01:21:16Come on, Carla. Give these boys a rub down.
01:21:18Come on, boys.
01:21:46It's gone, sir.
01:21:52Well, of course it's gone, you fool.
01:21:53That's why I put it there.
01:21:55Now, let's look at it.
01:21:56Now arrest the man who's taken it.
01:21:58That'll be the murderer
01:21:59because he's the only person
01:22:00who knew it was there.
01:22:01Yes, sir.
01:22:02But how am I to know
01:22:03who's taken it, sir?
01:22:04Well, look at your hands, you idiot.
01:22:08Blimey.
01:22:09The bromo selt, sir.
01:22:10The brand of cane, Clinton.
01:22:12Now find someone to match
01:22:14and arrest him.
01:22:16Goodbye.
01:22:22Excuse me.
01:22:45Frank, your fellow rails like a man possessed.
01:22:46Does he always play like that?
01:22:47Yes, sir.
01:22:49May I topple you again?
01:22:55Certainly.
01:23:04Thank you very much.
01:23:07Well, pay-down man.
01:23:09What's happened to your hand?
01:23:10What?
01:23:11It's as black as ink.
01:23:12It's as black as ink.
01:23:18I'm sorry.
01:23:40It's as black as ink.
01:23:41Come on!
01:24:11All right, take it easy, Rayle.
01:24:13All right, I understand.
01:24:17Oh, good man, Clinton.
01:24:19I knew you could do it.
01:24:21Well, of course it was Rayle.
01:24:23He was made akin to his fiancée.
01:24:25He killed Doyce
01:24:27for driving with a gun.
01:24:29He killed Doyce
01:24:31for driving with a gun.
01:24:33He killed Doyce
01:24:35for driving with a gun.
01:24:37He killed Doyce
01:24:39for driving Mary Kindley to suicide.
01:24:41And he killed Gwen Lee
01:24:43to stop her from talking.
01:24:45Yes, sir. I see, sir.
01:24:47Oh, and Clinton,
01:24:49my congratulations.
01:24:51But how did you know?
01:24:53Elementary, my dear Watson.
01:24:55Arson, come to the show tonight.
01:24:57Wardrobe?
01:24:59Props?
01:25:01Now then, boys, come along.
01:25:03Before I get this show on tonight,
01:25:09I'll see you later.
01:25:11I'll see you later.
01:25:13Happy holidays.
01:25:17Do you have any more?
01:25:19Oh, boy.

01:25:23Bye.
01:25:25Bye.
