00:30Anything else?
00:49Kidneys.
00:51None of you frozen?
00:53Juicing.
00:54I like the juice.
01:00Hey, go on, get out!
01:11I like the juice.
01:41I just thought I'd come in.
02:11Of course, my dear.
02:14That's what the church is for.
02:24Would you like a biscuit?
02:25That's what the church is for.
03:06He'd never do a thing like that.
03:27There's been a mistake made.
03:32Glasses.
03:36He was never a quitter.
03:39Not Uncle Albert.
03:40Although substitution bench in his day
03:42he'd play on to the end.
03:44He was my childhood hero.
03:47My role model
03:48long before they even thought up the term.
03:51Reedsby.
03:52It's a village not far from Hackersley.
03:54They retired there.
03:55Then Aunt Em died and he was on his own.
03:58That's only 30 miles away.
03:59It's no distance.
04:01But we've never been to see him.
04:03No.
04:05You've hardly ever spoken of him.
04:07If you've a childhood hero woman
04:08you want him to go on being a childhood hero.
04:10Stands to reason.
04:11You don't expect him to grow old.
04:13We grow old, Robert.
04:24Come and sit by me.
04:27You've not called me woman
04:36since the day they made you take voluntary redundancy.
04:41Oh, you daft apos.
04:45You can't be expected to understand
04:48about men's feelings.
04:51I know, I know.
04:52I looked up to him.
04:54The letter said there was an inquest.
04:58They brought it in suicide.
05:01He'd never do a thing like that.
05:04They must have got it wrong.
05:07Well, you call yourself a detective.
05:10You must investigate.
05:13I won't rest till I know the truth.
05:15Did he, do you suppose,
05:23leave anything we might use for expenses?
05:31I've been chucked out.
05:33I'm homeless.
05:36I thought you'd been scrounging jumble.
05:39Have you stolen something?
05:41Nothing.
05:42Broken anything?
05:43Not even when, Mrs. Wainthrop.
05:46Now then.
05:47Never mind what he didn't do.
05:48What did you do?
05:50Nothing.
05:51You were right the first time.
05:53It was what I wouldn't do.
05:55Which was?
05:57The landlady.
05:59She was after me body.
06:00Well, you can't go back.
06:04He can't stay here.
06:05Of course he can stay.
06:06There's a bit.
06:07He's exactly what we need.
06:08No, he's not.
06:09Until I sort myself out.
06:10You and I, Robert, are going off on a trip, if you remember, to investigate the death of Uncle Albert.
06:15You're really going to do it, then?
06:17I never refuse a case.
06:19And we'll need somebody to look after the house while we're away.
06:22Oh, right.
06:24You're right.
06:25Wouldn't you rather me come with you?
06:26I am your assistant.
06:28I could leave me bits and pieces here, under the stairs.
06:30He was Robert's uncle.
06:33Oh.
06:35Houseminding.
06:37It's a big responsibility.
06:39It is.
06:42His daughter's only too glad for you to stay.
06:45Apparently, Mr. Wainsop, you were his favourite nephew.
06:47She said her father often spoke of you as a gradely lad.
06:51But you lost touch, apparently.
06:55She'll have to sell the cottage, of course.
06:57But she'll come over first to have a last look around.
07:00She blames herself for the old man's suicide, but she's no cause.
07:03She asked him to go and live with them when his wife died,
07:06but he refused to leave the village.
07:08He was happy here.
07:09He was used to it.
07:11But you and I, Mrs. Wainthrop, we know how it is.
07:14The old resists change, then they get lonely,
07:16and it's very easy to despair.
07:18No, it's not.
07:19I don't hold with despair in young or old.
07:21I've no time for it at all.
07:23Well, I'll be on my way.
07:26Anyway, he wasn't old.
07:28Seventy-six.
07:29That's no age at all.
07:30Did you forget something heavy?
07:37Now, remember, we're house-minders, just like Geoffrey.
07:59Nobody must know I'm a detective.
08:01I'll take the suitcase upstairs.
08:22Are you taking possession?
08:26Have I had the pleasure?
08:27I have to know name, number of persons, relationship to the deceased.
08:35You go on upstairs, Robert.
08:37This lady must be from the census office.
08:39I'll talk to her in the kitchen.
08:43Now, who are you?
08:45Have you got biscuits in that bag?
08:48That's for me to know and you to wait till you're offered.
08:50Who are you?
08:50What a slice of bread and cheese.
08:52I may lose my patience.
08:54You're not asking the right way.
08:56Ask me name and I'll tell you.
08:59What's your name?
09:02Lottie Battersby.
09:03Where'd you live?
09:04Number one, Bell Cottages, Badger Lane, Reedsby.
09:08What day is it?
09:09Wednesday.
09:10Wednesday, birthday, August.
09:11How old are you?
09:14Can't remember.
09:19There's biscuits in the bag.
09:22Is the electricity connected, do you happen to know?
09:29Never mind.
09:32Were you a close friend of Uncle Albert's?
09:34We showed a lilac bush.
09:41Where did he hang himself?
09:46I've got back, Dorky.
09:47I can come and go as I like.
09:49We should help each other in this world.
09:51She's eaten all the bread, cheese and biscuits we brought with us.
09:59Says she comes and goes in here as she pleases.
10:02I said she'd better come as we please from now on, but I'm not sure she took it in.
10:06Wasn't there a bed under here when you started?
10:09Don't!
10:10You've got his 1949 jockstrap there.
10:12Oh, was it a good year for them?
10:14Is this one worth air, Miles?
10:16Shinpats.
10:17Shinpats.
10:18His blood shed at Wembley's on the underside of the one you're holding.
10:21Robert!
10:22Am I permitted to sit down or not?
10:24Or are we going to sleep in this bed tonight?
10:27You don't understand.
10:29Uncle Albert left me his football memorabilia.
10:31It's a sacred trust.
10:33I would just sort in them out.
10:39The bed will be free by tonight.
10:41Oh.
10:42They took him straight from school.
10:46He was only 17 when he played in first division.
10:49Then the war caught him.
10:51They came back to the game with 46.
10:5427 years old and his great days all before him.
10:57He must have made a bit of money then.
11:00Though you'd never think it.
11:02Oh, back in them days you didn't make big money like they do now.
11:0620 pounds a week, top wage.
11:08And you'd no share of the transfer fees.
11:10And he'd only got seven years to make it before his knee went.
11:15Are you telling me they cast him aside like a soiled glove?
11:19Oh, I wouldn't say that.
11:20Him and Aunt Em did enough after his benefits season to buy this cottage.
11:25And there was a local employer only too proud to have Albert Bradshaw working for him.
11:30There was a pension then?
11:32Must have been.
11:33So why did he have nothing to leave but his football stuff and this cottage?
11:37We'd better take a good look round.
11:45If that's his cat, somebody's been feeding it.
11:48That girl's turning the wrong way.
11:58Every one a classic.
12:01Oh, those were the great days.
12:04Ginger Richardson, my story.
12:06No ornaments.
12:11What goes if five minutes west...
12:12Somebody's been dusting.
12:14November 1931.
12:17Everything's so run down.
12:20The scotch marks all over this rug.
12:23From coals that fell out of the fire.
12:25It's a first edition.
12:27Was there a second?
12:28Eddie Hapgood, football ambassador.
12:34Stanley Matthews, the authorised biography.
12:37Tom Finney.
12:39That's funny.
12:41Tom Finney never made me laugh.
12:44This is now to do with football.
12:46Show me.
12:50There's a page dropped out.
12:52Must have been loose.
12:53That's not a page dropped out.
12:55Somebody drew that and put it in.
12:57Witches with Satan in the middle.
13:02Was your Uncle Albert artistic?
13:05No.
13:06He used to take the plate round in church.
13:10That's very interesting.
13:13I can feel the little grey cells beginning to stir.
13:18There's just one question preys on me mind.
13:23If Loopy Lottie next door ate all our food,
13:26what have we got for supper?
13:28Nothing.
13:30No wheat meal, whole meal, rye or harvest grain.
13:34Not even white sliced with added India rubber.
13:37No cobs, baps, tea cakes, bridge rolls.
13:42All bread has to be ordered.
13:44You're telling me nobody ever buys on a whim in Reedsby?
13:47You don't understand Lancashire folk.
13:50You're a foreigner, aren't you?
13:51Oh, Birmingham.
13:53It's all the Acapulco.
13:54Well, what kind of a shop are you?
13:56You've got corn dollies outside, but no bread and fresh vegetables inside.
14:01Corn dollies don't go stale, madam.
14:03They're made on the premises by my wife, and the profit margin is enormous.
14:06But you never sell any.
14:09Well, you try running a village shop,
14:11and see how quick your hard-earned savings rot on the shelves unsolved.
14:14This lady wouldn't be conversant with the problems of microeconomics in the consumer-like society.
14:19This consumer's husband has become foolishly attached to the idea of food for his supper,
14:25and most of what we've brought with us has been eaten by our next-door neighbour.
14:28How often do the buses go into town?
14:30The next is on Tuesday.
14:34Ask a silly question.
14:37There's hand-raised pork pies at the butchers.
14:40I've seen that face before somewhere.
14:44Local paper.
14:46Evening record.
14:48Not long after we got here.
14:51What I say,
14:52don't put Mary Poppins among the other videos.
14:56We like to keep the categories separate.
14:58That was a photo.
15:02Now, what was it about?
15:04It'll come to me.
15:06I'll never forget a face.
15:18Everything running down.
15:22The vicar shared between five parishes.
15:25And then made all these scrapbooks.
15:30Pasted in all his matches.
15:33His whole career.
15:37There's a smell of death in the village.
15:40All right.
15:40The smell of death, Robert.
15:51Yes, this'll do.
15:53The circle there.
15:56Blaming torches on spikes.
15:59But if we don't want them too close to the trees...
16:01Now then.
16:03What are we going to do for the sacrificial stone?
16:06Well, there's a stone sink in the vicarage garden.
16:09It's full of alpines.
16:10But we could take them out.
16:12We'll need a wheelbarrow.
16:13Wheelbarrow?
16:14The cat run away.
16:17Well, it would!
16:17That woman who came into the shop.
16:22She's a private detective.
16:26I knew it'd come to me.
16:30There's no bus till Tuesday.
16:34What's that noise?
16:35Noise?
16:36What noise?
16:37Isn't it coming from your end?
16:39Ketri?
16:40I think my toast isn't any ready, Mrs. Wainthrop.
16:41I'm going to have to ring you back.
16:42You can't ring me back.
16:59Oh.
17:00Hello, Mum.
17:01I'll be back.
17:06How's it getting on?
17:08Like a house on fire.
17:09Now, there must be somebody with a car.
17:13Part-time taxi.
17:15You could make a boat for civilisation.
17:17Get us some proper food.
17:20It's better for me to hang on here and ask questions anyway.
17:25I see.
17:27Bad this morning.
17:33We'll go and have a word with Mr. Plod.
17:35Before he sets out in his panda.
17:45I want you to come home.
17:46I've left home.
17:48I'm on my own now.
17:50I'm in responsible employment of public importance.
17:52You're still my boy.
17:54Come home, Geoffrey.
17:57Since your dad left,
17:58I can't live alone.
18:01It's wrong to force me.
18:04You'd better come in.
18:05Aspects of this case puzzle me.
18:10Why football gear?
18:12He was going to kill himself, Mrs. Waintrop.
18:14He put on the clothes that he was happiest in long ago.
18:18There was a post-mortem?
18:20Always is.
18:21Was he suffering any terminal diseases?
18:24Did they find out?
18:25Cancer?
18:26Doggers.
18:27I don't know where you get them from.
18:28They're needed to get rid of.
18:29No terminal diseases of any kind.
18:33For a man of his age,
18:34he was in excellent health.
18:36And he didn't leave a note?
18:37No note was found.
18:39You don't think that's strange?
18:40The reasons that people have for killing themselves
18:43are their own business.
18:44They're not a proper subject for police inquiry.
18:47Darlington, three.
18:49Manchester City, two.
18:51Is Mr. Waintrop all right?
18:53It's called grieving, constable.
18:54We all have our own way of doing it.
18:56There's no place like home.
19:15Could he have been dead already
19:16and hung up there to be found?
19:20Turn that thing off!
19:23I'm not at the best
19:24stopping murders
19:25when somebody's trying to launch
19:26their biological schemes into orbit!
19:29The medical evidence was clear.
19:31The drop killed him.
19:33He took his life
19:34while the balance of his mind
19:36was disturbed.
19:37Nobody's mind is perfectly balanced
19:40all the time.
19:41And elderly people...
19:42Do what?
19:43Become forgetful, selfish,
19:45easily frightened,
19:46revert to childhood,
19:48spill food, don't wash.
19:50It doesn't add up to insanity.
19:52Life's too good to throw away.
19:55Particularly when you've managed
19:5676 years on this earth already.
19:58You've got a nice little garden
19:59out the back.
20:00You've been working on it,
20:01haven't you?
20:01Six.
20:02So did he.
20:03That's what you do with life.
20:05Darling, three.
20:05Use it.
20:06Enjoy it.
20:07Live it.
20:07Three, two, three.
20:08It's spitting in the face of God
20:10to chuck in the towel
20:11before full time.
20:13Accrington Stanley.
20:16I can't remember.
20:17Oh, just one more question.
20:29We found a book.
20:30The Witches of Reedsby.
20:32That's this village.
20:33Have you got witches here?
20:35She makes it sound like mice.
20:37There was witches all over Lancashire
20:39in the old days.
20:40All those old women hanged at Pendle
20:42in 16-something or other.
20:44Hanged.
20:45Yes.
20:45But nowadays,
20:47there's just not the interest.
20:49I see.
20:51Were you born here, Constable?
20:52No.
20:54I'm from Blackburn.
20:55You're never sent for duty
20:56in your own area.
20:58Over.
20:59My wife.
21:01She's local.
21:10She's got a visitor.
21:11Clody's back.
21:21You go back in.
21:23I'd like to see your visits,
21:24loony Lutty.
21:25And why?
21:29And your dear old Albert's niece,
21:31is it?
21:32In-law.
21:33He was my husband's uncle.
21:35Such a sad, unnecessary loss.
21:38I blame myself, Mrs. Wainthrop.
21:39Why?
21:42I should have known.
21:44I come in most days
21:45to see the old dears.
21:47That's what I always call them.
21:49My old dears.
21:51It's up to the village community
21:53to care for those in need.
21:55Was Uncle Albert in need?
21:56He had his pension.
21:58In need of company.
22:00Concern, Mrs. Wainthrop.
22:02Someone to share.
22:04Upstairs, quickly.
22:05I'd rather you didn't mention this to anyone,
22:21if you don't mind.
22:22Does this happen often?
22:24No, not really.
22:25But the old dears get so frightened, you see.
22:28What's up?
22:29The cottage hospital in Ackersley.
22:32The old folks' home in Thornton-le-Dale.
22:36Nobody ever comes back from either.
22:39At least that's what they believe.
22:41So they struggle on.
22:43They're frightened of people knowing they can't cope.
22:46Taps left running, flooding the floor.
22:48Holes dropping out of the fire,
22:50setting fire to the hearthrug,
22:51locking themselves out.
22:53Some of them are a little absent-minded.
22:55Flotty, especially so.
22:56But it doesn't add up to senility.
23:00One covers for them as long as one can.
23:03It's not a reason for suicide.
23:05Indeed, no.
23:06Anyway, Uncle Albert could cope.
23:10Yes, he could.
23:13You get about a bit in the village,
23:16visiting your old dears and such.
23:19The parish council, the flower show, the WVS,
23:22and I collect for charity.
23:24My word.
23:24Yes, I'm quite a busybody.
23:28Long ago, when I dropped a hymn book
23:29or miscounted the collection,
23:31my father would say,
23:33Marion, if you can't be a practical Christian,
23:35join the devil and undermine his work instead.
23:39Uncle Albert had a book, witchcraft.
23:43You've not come across anything like that in Reedsby.
23:46Good gracious, no.
23:48It's hard enough to get them to come to church.
23:50Have you made this yourself?
23:59Oh, it's very good, Anna.
24:00It really is very good.
24:02And the garlands?
24:03Lillian did them.
24:04She found some half-priced silk flowers at the car.
24:06Oh, like the Dresiva?
24:08Yeah, plenty.
24:09It's a stinkweed I could find.
24:10It can be difficult.
24:11Luckily, I do have a source.
24:13Now, what else?
24:14Sacrificial knife.
24:15Alan's bringing his arm down for the butchers.
24:17Sacrifice.
24:17It'll be there.
24:18Goat.
24:19From the organic dairy.
24:20I would have liked to have had one from Reedsby.
24:22But needs must when the devil drives.
24:37Any better?
24:38Comes at gusts.
24:42This can't go on.
24:44Aye.
24:45I'd best go home, love.
24:47I'm no use to you here.
24:48We'll both go.
24:54Witchcraft.
24:55I'm clutching at straws.
24:56He was an old man.
24:57He was lonely.
24:59He killed himself.
25:00End of story.
25:03You can't give up.
25:05Childhood hero.
25:06You've never shown any interest in football.
25:08I followed football regular before I met you.
25:11Are you suggesting...
25:11Now, hear me out, love.
25:141946 to 53.
25:16Uncle Albert's great days.
25:19I worshipped him.
25:211948.
25:22Cup tie at Wembley.
25:2499,000 attendants.
25:27And I were there in the best seats with Aunt Em and my brother Frank.
25:321952-53.
25:34He did his leg in.
25:35They were never right after.
25:3653, 54, his last season.
25:42Crystal Palace at home.
25:43They booed him.
25:45His own fans booed him.
25:47I'd gone to the match with my mates.
25:55I booed with the others.
26:02He can't have known that.
26:04I knew.
26:06I stayed away after.
26:11I expect he thought I were ashamed of him.
26:15I were ashamed of myself.
26:16What do you want me to do?
26:22Put my mind at rest.
26:28Here it is.
26:30FA Cup presentation ceremony.
26:33Uncle Albert got his medal with the rest.
26:3518 carat gold.
26:37And they let me hold it.
26:39Oh, they were heroes in them days.
26:41Hang on.
26:43You what?
26:44Where's that medal now?
26:47He kept everything.
26:49All the memorabilia.
26:52Boots, jockstraps, shin pads.
26:54You said yourself the very blood that he shed at Wembley was on those pads.
26:59Where's that gold medal?
27:01He must have sold it.
27:03Why would he need money that badly?
27:08Got it!
27:09What?
27:11Pawn ticket.
27:12You'll go on with the case, then.
27:21I want Geoffrey here by tomorrow morning.
27:23There's no bus till Tuesday.
27:25Tell him to borrow the scooter from that friend of his.
27:28If he can't, he can cycle 30 miles.
27:31They'd think nothing of that in the Tour de France.
27:34Now you'll be in our own bed by tonight.
27:37I've missed that.
27:39Don't forget.
27:40When you reach Ackersley, before you get the bus home,
27:44look for the three brass balls
27:46and see you've pulled that medal.
27:51I'll phone this evening at home about six o'clock.
27:57Will this taxi make it as far as Ackersley, do you think, in this condition?
28:02It always has done.
28:08There's always got to be a first time, though.
28:10Let's pray.
28:13He's a third time.
28:21I'll help you in our 30s.
28:27Bye-bye.
28:28Bye-bye.
28:29Bye-bye.
28:29Bye-bye.
28:33Bye-bye.
28:35Bye-bye.
28:35Bye-bye.
28:36Bye-bye.
28:36Bye-bye.
28:37Bye-bye.
28:39Bye-bye.
28:39You're a detective.
28:51How do you know that?
28:53Everyone in the village knows by now.
28:54You can't come in, Mr. Waynthrop, without I talk to you first.
29:12It was me that found him.
29:16How come?
29:17We were doing a project at school.
29:20The village school?
29:21One of the littleies go to the village school.
29:24We were at the Comprehensive at Ackersley.
29:26When we bother to go.
29:29What sort of project?
29:31We never had them in my day.
29:33Social studies.
29:34Care for an old person for a month.
29:37And then write a dissertation.
29:39Stupid.
29:40You can't stop after a month.
29:42No, of course you can't.
29:43But I expect some did.
29:46We learned our tables in the Kings and Queens of England.
29:50Probably did less damage.
29:51I used to come round most days.
29:55Down his socks.
29:57Do a bit of shopping.
29:58Talk about the old times.
29:59Well, he'd talk.
30:01I'd listen.
30:02Miss Horner came round most days too, she said.
30:06We never overlapped.
30:08He didn't like her.
30:12Here you do my book.
30:14I lied.
30:20It wasn't the landlady at the Baden-Pow buildings making a pass at me.
30:25It was my mother.
30:27She'd found out where I was living.
30:29She comes around.
30:30She won't leave me.
30:32She's on at me all the time to go back home.
30:34Some parents turned their children out.
30:37I won't go back, Mr. Wainthrob.
30:39Since me dad walked out, it was just too heavy.
30:44Oh.
30:45Well, I tell you what.
30:47You don't have to live with her.
30:49But you should visit sometimes.
30:52If you never visit folk when they're alive,
30:54they'll only feel bad when they die.
30:57There's a drawing in it.
31:04Satan.
31:06I did that.
31:09I thought it might be his.
31:11Something he left.
31:13Like a note.
31:14He never left a note.
31:17They asked me.
31:18And I've seen it.
31:20Why did you give him a book about witches?
31:22Well, we were talking about it and he was interested.
31:26It's the old religion, isn't it?
31:27Never died out.
31:30Better than ours in some ways.
31:33What ways?
31:34Women in control.
31:44I suppose you and me ought to have a bit of a conflab.
31:48Oh, that'll be Hetty.
31:53We can't be long.
31:55There's somebody waiting.
31:59What's the medal there?
32:01Aye.
32:03He wouldn't part with it, though.
32:05The time's gone by.
32:07Says he's a football aficionado.
32:11Well, I reckon it was the 18-karat gold.
32:14Who brought it in?
32:15I can't remember.
32:17Only he wouldn't show me his record books,
32:19as it's confidential.
32:20Nil desperandum.
32:21Doin' a bit of detecting, are you?
32:28You've nice weather for it.
32:32Ill visit?
32:33Promise.
32:34It's not up to me to promise.
32:36He's promised.
32:38It's a proper job, missus.
32:40With prospects?
32:42There's almost prospects.
32:43One Perkis night.
33:04Mr. Waynthrop sent it.
33:22We've a lot to do, Geoffrey.
33:23Don't know what, already?
33:25I've cycled 33 miles,
33:27mostly uphill,
33:27with that French stick
33:28knocking a dent in me chin.
33:30That's nothing to a lad of your age.
33:32Why didn't you borrow
33:32your friend's scooter?
33:34I couldn't.
33:34It was in use.
33:35Oh!
33:36Brass rubbing in the cotswolds.
33:39We'd better have a bite to eat
33:40and then we'll set off.
33:41I've watched two people
33:44cross that field
33:45with an old stone sink
33:46in a wheelbarrow.
33:48That has to mean something.
33:55Mmm.
33:56There's been times
33:57these past two days
33:58I could have killed
33:59for spring onions
34:00and crusty bread.
34:02There's something strange
34:03about this village.
34:05You know there were witches here?
34:06There were witches
34:07all over Lancashire.
34:08They confessed to Congress
34:10with Satan.
34:12They had meetings,
34:13Sabbaths.
34:14They had familiar spirits,
34:15cats mostly.
34:16It's all in this book,
34:18The Witches of Readsby.
34:19Mrs. Waincrop,
34:20it's me you sent
34:20to the reference library.
34:22I do the books.
34:24Listen and you may
34:25learn something.
34:27It's beginning to add up.
34:29Small things.
34:31Corn dollies
34:32sold at the general store.
34:34Girls in the street
34:35spinning widder shins.
34:37That's anti-clockwise
34:38the way witches spin.
34:40A cat that's everywhere.
34:42Almost as if it's human
34:43and they all take it
34:43for granted.
34:45A church neglected.
34:47Where's it going?
34:50There's no doubt
34:51that the old man
34:52committed suicide.
34:54There's no getting
34:54away from that.
34:56But tonight
34:57is Wolpergus night.
35:00you saw the food
35:09arrive.
35:12All right.
35:18This is Lottie
35:19from next door.
35:21Hello.
35:22Cut her a piece of bread,
35:23will you,
35:23Geoffrey, please?
35:24I'm going to pop in
35:28in a moment
35:28to make sure
35:29you've not left
35:30the bath running again.
35:33Old ladies
35:33my age
35:34don't have baths
35:35unless there's someone
35:37standing by
35:37to fish us out.
35:38Then why was the...
35:40Never mind.
35:47Who's the Queen of England?
35:49Mom.
35:53Wet.
36:23Let's go round.
36:37Have a look at this.
36:43Looks like a hanging tree.
36:45Shouldn't we go and tell the police?
36:49There are three reasons why not, Geoffrey.
36:53One, he won't be back till this evening.
36:57Two, there's still religious freedom in this country,
37:00and unless they actually hang somebody,
37:02they're not committing a criminal offence.
37:06And three, I'm not sure his wife isn't one of them.
37:15We won't take any risks.
37:19We'll black our faces and hide.
37:22We'll be back here by midnight.
37:25Then we'll see what we see.
37:28We'll be back here by midnight.
37:30We'll be back here.
37:31Oh!
37:32Oh!
37:33Oh!
37:34Oh!
37:35Oh!
37:36Oh!
37:37Oh!
37:38Oh!
37:39Oh!
37:40Oh!
37:41Oh!
37:42Oh!
37:43Oh!
37:44Have you heard the mind that steals the bread and hearts behind the door?
38:04Some say that Satan is dead and buried in cowl over.
38:09Satan!
38:09Satan!
38:12Woken, my children! Woken! Feast! And fornicate!
38:18Fornicate!
38:20But first, I shall require due sacrifice.
38:23Sacrifice!
38:25Sacrifice!
38:26Sacrifice!
38:27Sacrifice!
38:29Let the chosen virgin come forth.
38:31Virgin!
38:39I may have to interfere.
38:42You can't!
38:44Do you give this child to me unconditionally?
38:47I do.
38:48Has she been soothed with the juice of poppies?
38:51She has.
38:52Is she unsullied and unblemished, pure in thought, word and deed?
38:56She is.
38:56Sacrifice!
38:58Sacrifice!
38:59Sacrifice!
39:00Sacrifice!
39:01Sacrifice!
39:02Sacrifice!
39:04Sacrifice!
39:05Sacrifice!
39:06Sacrifice!
39:07Sacrifice!
39:08Sacrifice!
39:09Sacrifice!
39:10Sacrifice!
39:11Sacrifice!
39:12Sacrifice!
39:13Sacrifice!
39:14I can't have this.
39:15It must be stopped.
39:16How?
39:17She...
39:18She's not supposed to cry.
39:19Shatter them!
39:20Come back to the village.
39:22Go straight to the policeman's house.
39:23I'll hold them somehow till he gets here.
39:25Right.
39:26All right!
39:27That's enough.
39:28I can't have this.
39:29I can't have this.
39:30It must be stopped.
39:31How?
39:32She's not supposed to cry.
39:33Shut up.
39:34She's not supposed to cry.
39:35Shut up.
39:36Right! That's it, love! You can stop this at once, I won't have it!
39:43Freedom of worship is one thing, no objection to that.
39:46But you lot are going too far.
39:49My advice to you would be to make yourself scared as quick as you can.
39:54The police are already informed and on their way.
40:00Don't you laugh at me.
40:02Don't dare laugh at me.
40:08I'm a fully qualified private detective, well known in the West Lancs area, with an advert in the Yellow Pages.
40:17I've got connections.
40:25Of course you have, Mrs. Waintrop.
40:32All right, cookie there.
40:38Set up the guard going from Satan's entrance.
40:41I'll talk to her.
40:43Now, I don't care which comes first, madam.
40:45An explanation or an apology, both of you.
40:47It's not up to me to explain myself or apologise.
40:51I'm not engaged in satanic practices.
40:53There have been no satanic practices here, madam.
40:56No human being or animal has been or would be hurt.
40:58This little girl was crying.
41:00She was terrified.
41:02She was crying because the stinkweed in the garlands brings her out in a rash.
41:05Anti-histamine cream, however, has been provided.
41:08Now, don't try to soft-soap me.
41:10I talked to Hannah.
41:11She told me about the old religion.
41:14Oh, yes.
41:14She is a very intelligent girl.
41:16Now, she will go a long way.
41:20She stood at the old subject.
41:22She wrote most of the script.
41:23You see, madam, what you've just blundered into, madam,
41:26is the making of a community video,
41:28The Witches of Reedsby, in aid.
41:31A muscular dystrophy.
41:32Now, if you wish to satisfy yourself,
41:39you are welcome to stay and watch.
41:41Please, don't interrupt the game.
41:50Ready when you are, Mr. DeMille.
41:51I've made some tea.
42:06Oh, just set it down, please.
42:10Ah, jump into conclusions.
42:13You've always jumped, Mrs. Wainthrop.
42:15I was supposed to be a grieving relative, not a detective.
42:18But I blundered about, cross-examining everything in sight.
42:22Nobody was deceived, laughing at me behind their hands.
42:26Even Looney Lottie next door was admiring.
42:28Even...
42:29Mrs. Wainthrop.
42:33Walk me over the wall, flowers.
42:35You what?
42:36Old ladies my age don't have baths
42:38unless there's somebody there to fish us out.
42:41And these scorch marks on the hearth rug.
42:44But Uncle Albert could cope, she said.
42:46Are you all right in yourself, Mrs. Wainthrop?
42:47A fool!
42:50A fool!
42:51I've been a fool!
42:53Yes, Mrs. Wainthrop.
42:54Well, don't agree with me.
42:56Do you think it's too late to go next door and talk to Lottie now?
43:02When I came over to see you
43:03and Miss Horner was there
43:05the day the bath ran over,
43:08do you remember that?
43:10Did Miss Horner go upstairs just before I arrived?
43:16What day is it?
43:16Saturday?
43:17Saturday?
43:18Right!
43:19Saturday today.
43:21Thursday then.
43:23Did Miss Horner go upstairs?
43:28Who's the Queen of England?
43:30I'll put it another way.
43:34Is Miss Horner always with you
43:38when bad things happen?
43:42Water overflows, the cookers left on.
43:44Do these things ever happen when she's not there?
43:50Most days she comes to see us.
43:53Albert Bradshaw and me.
43:55Albert first, then me.
43:58Albert first.
43:59Did she come the day he hanged himself?
44:08Did Miss Horner come to see you that day
44:11and go in to see Albert first,
44:15as she always did?
44:17Are you taking possession?
44:22Did you give her money, Lottie?
44:23I thought so.
44:36How many other old dears in the village
44:42did Miss Horner visit most days?
44:45I shall need the names, Lottie.
44:57Eight of them!
44:58Your old dears!
45:00Desperate to stay in their own homes!
45:03Terrified of dying unnoticed,
45:05out of sight and out of mind
45:06in the old folks' home!
45:14But you were their friend.
45:17Visited nearly every day.
45:19Protected them.
45:21Taught them what they must always know
45:22to keep out of the funny farm.
45:24What day is it?
45:24Where do you live?
45:25Who's the Queen of England?
45:27Excuse me.
45:29And when waters flooded the floor
45:31and bottoms were burned out of pans,
45:35and cold set fire to carpets,
45:38you were there to cover up.
45:40Except that these things
45:41didn't happen when you weren't there.
45:43You're jumping to conclusions,
45:45Mrs. Wayne.
45:45I always have done it.
45:46It's the grey cells work in overtime.
45:49I'll jump on.
45:51You took money from your old dears,
45:54Miss Horner.
45:56Easy to do.
45:57Everyone knew you collected for charity.
45:59You didn't take much.
46:00They couldn't afford much.
46:01But it all added up.
46:02And more from Uncle Albert
46:04because of his pension.
46:06Then you went too far.
46:08His gold medal.
46:11He don't accuse you in public.
46:14Too dangerous, he thought.
46:15They'll never believe him.
46:16Lost his marbles away with him.
46:19So he dressed up in his football gear
46:21to remind people they owed him some respect.
46:24And he wrote a note,
46:25and he hanged himself.
46:26But you came along as you always did.
46:30Took the note before anyone else found him.
46:32And then went on into Lottie.
46:34I came here.
46:36I came to pray.
46:39Lottie found me here.
46:41Admit it.
46:42You prove it.
46:54I don't have to prove it.
46:58This is a small village.
47:01There are no secrets.
47:02It's a Sopwith Camel.
47:14So what's it doing in our spare room?
47:17I thought it would interest Geoffrey.
47:21It does?
47:22I put it together for our derrick
47:23when he won his swimming certificate.
47:25You can do the breaststroke for half a mile, I take it.
47:28She knows damn well what I'm trying to say
47:32is that you're welcome to use this room
47:35till you get back on your feet.
47:39Thank you, Mr. Wainthrop.
47:43When business improves,
47:44we'll decide what's a fair rent.
47:58It's a small village.
48:25Oh, my God.
48:55Oh, my God.
