00:00:30What are you doing down here? What are you doing down here? Do you hear me?
00:00:53I said house and fire.
00:01:00Robbie?
00:01:18Robbie!
00:01:28Robbie!
00:01:36Robbie!
00:01:40Robbie!
00:01:42Robbie!
00:01:46What's the matter with you?
00:01:48I left my teddy behind.
00:01:50What are you talking about?
00:01:52I left my teddy behind the back place and I want to go back.
00:01:54Come on.
00:01:58They're taking me home. I want to go.
00:02:06Come here.
00:02:08It's all right. I'm not taking you home.
00:02:10Well, go this way.
00:02:14Is Robbie with you?
00:02:16No. You haven't seen him then?
00:02:18No.
00:02:20I can't think where he's got to.
00:02:22I'm sorry. He hasn't been here.
00:02:24Have any of you kids seen Robbie?
00:02:26No, Mr Campbell.
00:02:28No, Mr Campbell.
00:02:30Come here.
00:02:32I saw a light here.
00:02:34I saw you.
00:02:36Come here.
00:02:38Come here.
00:02:59I said come here.
00:03:05Come on, come on.
00:03:08Come on.
00:03:24Get down there.
00:03:33I don't like men down here.
00:03:35Shut up and let me think, will you?
00:03:46All right?
00:03:47I hope it doesn't happen.
00:03:50Good morning.
00:03:51Righto.
00:04:17How old is he?
00:04:21He'll be seven next month.
00:04:24And you're the parents?
00:04:25No.
00:04:26He's adopted.
00:04:29Has he ever run off like this before?
00:04:30Never.
00:04:31No cause to.
00:04:32There's no reason you can think of, then?
00:04:34Not to run away for.
00:04:35Well, he ought to have known better than that.
00:04:37We'd only have told him off.
00:04:38That's all we'd have done.
00:04:40Told him off for what?
00:04:42Oh, well, he'd been playing with matches again.
00:04:45I'm always telling him not to.
00:04:47But this time he set the kitchen curtains alight.
00:04:50The wee scamp.
00:04:52That may be it.
00:04:53Or it may be just a lark.
00:04:54It usually is.
00:04:56But to be gone all this time, and without his supper.
00:04:58That's no like him.
00:04:59That's no like the laddie at all.
00:05:02Well, Mrs. Campbell, I shouldn't worry.
00:05:05We'll send out a description.
00:05:06You'll have him back in no time.
00:05:07Oh, I hope so.
00:05:08I'll never get a wink of sleep.
00:05:11Well, it isn't the first time a kid's run off, you know.
00:05:14No cause for alarm.
00:05:15He'll be all right.
00:05:28Who are you staring at?
00:05:29Get to sleep.
00:05:36What a knife.
00:05:37Perhaps they won't hurt you.
00:05:38Get to sleep.
00:05:40I had one once.
00:05:41A white one.
00:05:42It died.
00:05:43But it didn't really die.
00:05:45He killed it.
00:05:46He didn't like it, so he killed it.
00:05:48Don't shut up!
00:05:58What are you staring at me like that for?
00:06:28I can't see him.

00:12:30Did you have a row with your husband?
00:12:31I didn't say so.

00:12:35Do you think I go through his pockets?
00:12:37Is this the only other room?

00:30:03No.
00:30:05The owl and the Pussycat went to sea
00:30:07In a beautiful pea-green boat
00:30:09It took some honey and plenty of money
00:30:12Rubbed up in a five-pound note
00:30:14The owl looked up to the stars above
00:30:17And sang to a small guitar
00:30:20Oh, lovely Pussy, oh, Pussy, my love
00:30:23What a beautiful Pussy you are, you are, you are
00:30:26What a beautiful Pussy you are
00:30:28Of course you are
00:30:30Mrs. Lloyd
00:30:32We have to ask these questions because we want to trace your husband
00:30:36We're not saying he did kill Mills
00:30:38But until we can find him and hear what he's got to say
00:30:40The evidence is very strong against him
00:30:42If you don't know where he is, why should I know?
00:30:46Is there anywhere you think he might be?
00:30:48I've no idea
00:30:49What do you think he'd make for?
00:30:50I don't know
00:30:51Is there any other woman he was...
00:30:53No
00:30:54All right, I'm sorry
00:30:55What about his family? Are his parents alive?
00:30:57I married him, not his family
00:30:59I asked you if his parents are alive
00:31:01I don't know
00:31:02I don't believe you

00:31:19And what was your relationship with Mills?
00:31:20What are you getting at?

00:31:22How well did you know Mills?
00:31:23I told you I went to his office
00:31:24That doesn't answer my question
00:31:25I repeat, how well did you know him?
00:31:26No better than any of the other girls in the office if that's what you mean?
00:31:28Who paid for this? You, your husband or Mills?

00:32:07What do you think I feel like?
00:32:09Done now, isn't it?
00:32:11It's done, but it's not finished, Mrs. Lloyd
00:32:15Now, can you tell me this
00:32:16What was your husband doing with a young boy the night he broke into your flat?
00:32:19Do you know who the boy was?
00:32:20No
00:32:21You knew nothing about it?
00:32:22No
00:32:23Well, do you recognise this?
00:32:24No
00:32:25You've never seen it before?
00:32:26No
00:32:27He means nothing to you at all
00:32:28No, I didn't
00:32:29You've never seen it before

00:32:41Yes, and they're here now
00:32:43Right, we'll see them
00:32:44now do any of you recognize this it's Robbie's had he any special fear of fire I mean had he
00:33:04ever been burnt or left in a burning house not that I know of are you sure you can think of no
00:33:11reason why he should have run away well what reason could there be well perhaps he was frightened of
00:33:18being punished was he often punished if anything I'd say we rather spoiled how how you bought him
00:33:28too many sweets toys is that what you mean can I see his toys well now that you mention it he
00:33:38wasn't really a boy for toys and those we bought him were either broken or lost in five minutes
00:33:43if he didn't like toys why on earth should a boy of his age run off with a teddy bear
00:33:46oh that blessed old bear he'd even take it to bed with him why did it mean something special
00:33:52who gave it to him I don't know he always had it he had it when he came did his mother give it to him

00:40:58you'll get to sleep
00:41:02well
00:41:03once upon a time long long ago there was a terrible giant and he lived with his father and his mother in a hollow mountain
00:41:10and he was so big that when he used to walk the whole earth shook and he used to eat sheep whole wool and all
00:41:25and when the sheep dog used to snap at his ankles he just used to brush them away like flies
00:41:38but the bigger he got the more hungry he became and in the end there just weren't enough sheep to go around the family
00:41:44so he decided to go to sea become a pirate and eat whales and stay there
00:41:51so he pulled up a big forest of trees and he made a boat and the boat was so big that when he sailed away he pulled England into the sea behind him
00:41:59and that's how it became an island because he'd forgotten to untie it
00:42:03if i'm not telling this very well it's because it all happened such a long time ago and i've forgotten
00:42:14after a bit he got tired of the sea
00:42:17didn't seem to be getting what he wanted out of being a sailor
00:42:20or he couldn't go home
00:42:22jobs were hard to get in those days
00:42:25but he was sick of the sea and very lonely
00:42:33and i don't know what to make of them
00:42:35that poor child's back's covered with the marks of a lash absolutely
00:42:38come in the kitchen
00:42:40that is the end of the news
00:42:43and here is a police message
00:42:46new facts have come to light about the man
00:42:48what's all the facets
00:42:50in connection with the seller murder
00:42:52wait a minute
00:42:53it is now believed he may be accompanied by a child
00:42:55Ted
00:42:56i've let the back roam to a man and a boy
00:42:58and i don't know what to make of them
00:43:00that poor child's back's covered with the marks of a lash absolutely covered
00:43:03and when i asked him where he lived
00:43:05he seemed too frightened to answer
00:43:07and another thing
00:43:08when they arrived the man talked about the little boy's mother
00:43:11but the boy says he hasn't got a mother
00:43:13Ted we ought to go to the police
00:43:20how long are they staying
00:43:21just the night
00:43:22did you get him to sign the book
00:43:24no it was late and i thought the morning would do
00:43:26we've got to be careful you know
00:43:28we can't go fetching the police unless we've got good reason
00:43:31might find ourselves in trouble
00:43:32but i don't believe it is his child
00:43:34not for a moment
00:43:35you should have seen the state of the little boy's back
00:43:37and his dirty little clothes
00:43:38the way he talks and everything
00:43:39what if it isn't
00:43:40may not be anything wrong with that
00:43:43now listen
00:43:44in the morning you get him to sign the book
00:43:46then if you still want to
00:43:48you go and tell the police
00:43:49and leave it to them to make inquiries their own way
00:43:51but you can't fetch a piece around here
00:43:53if you aren't dead sure of something
00:43:54can you
00:43:55well i don't like it
00:44:03so one day he sailed up the river into london
00:44:07and that night when he went ashore he met a girl
00:44:11she wasn't like any other girl he'd ever seen before
00:44:13she was
00:44:15a princess
00:44:19she had a way of
00:44:23it's difficult to explain really she
00:44:25anyway he fell in love with her and
00:44:27she married him
00:44:37then everything was different
00:44:39there was her to come home to and
00:44:41her home
00:44:43everything was fine
00:44:45everything was fine
00:44:51then one day he came home unexpectedly
00:44:53he saw her standing in front of a mirror
00:44:57looking more beautiful than he'd ever seen her before
00:45:01in all her best clothes
00:45:05clothes
00:45:09clothes he'd never seen before
00:45:13then i found something out
00:45:15something she'd been doing
00:45:19i went to see the man and
00:45:21he laughed
00:45:23he laughed
00:45:27laughed straight in my face
00:45:31then he said
00:45:35what do you think girls marry sailors for
00:45:37what do you think girls afford
00:46:07you
00:46:37Go fetch the police.
00:46:58We're sent to ask for a paper.
00:47:01Just a minute, Robbie.
00:47:07You go.
00:47:08I'm not leaving you alone with that man upstairs.
00:47:10You've got to keep the child away from him. You must go.
00:47:16Robbie.
00:47:18Robbie, just a minute here.
00:47:20Robbie.
00:47:21Robbie, come here, dear.
00:47:24Look, you're all twisted up.
00:47:26I don't know how you get into that stable side of it.
00:47:37Good morning.
00:47:47Good morning.
00:47:48Your breakfast won't be long. I'll bring it up to you.
00:47:51I'll send him down to see if I can borrow the paper.
00:47:54He was all twisted up.
00:47:55We can't send you out like that, can we, Robbie?
00:47:57Can I?
00:47:59Yes. My husband's just gone out to get one. He'll bring it up to you.
00:48:07I saw the boy delivering.
00:48:17Oh, that boy.
00:48:18He'll be forgetting his own name next to us.
00:48:19It's the house next door that's cancelled, not us.
00:48:21I'd like to see that one.
00:48:22It's yesterday's. My husband won't be long.
00:48:24Robbie.
00:48:25Robbie, you want to see the chickens?
00:48:26You want to see the chickens, don't you?
00:48:28Stay close to me, Robbie.
00:48:30Stay close.
00:48:32Robbie!
00:48:33Oh, no!
00:48:48Get back! You can't come now. Get back!
00:49:03I said get back! I don't want you!
00:49:08Get back!
00:49:22Get away! Beat him! I don't want you!
00:49:33Get back!
00:49:43Get up!
00:49:57Get up!
00:49:58Oh, come here.
00:50:13You're all right. You're all right now.
00:50:16I won't leave you again, I promise you.
00:50:19Gosh, you gave me a fright. You can't keep us out of trouble for a minute, can you?
00:50:22Left where Woodlauves behind.
00:50:24That's a terrible thing to do.
00:50:27We'll have to get you another one somewhere else, shall we?
00:50:47I'm hungry.
00:50:49Oh, dear. All right.
00:50:52Ever tried a Roy?
00:50:54No.
00:50:55You make a hole at both ends and then you suck her.
00:51:03There's a carrot.
00:51:05They'll make you see in the dark.
00:51:07You see those mountains over there?
00:51:09Well, that's where we're going. Right across there.
00:51:11We're going to travel at night so that nobody can see us.
00:51:13And we've got to travel fast.
00:51:15And we've got to travel fast.
00:51:21And we've got to travel fast.
00:51:22And we've got to travel fast.
00:51:23And we've got to travel fast.
00:51:28And we've got to travel fast.
00:51:30l
00:51:58I'm tired.
00:52:14I know. I can't help it.
00:52:21Can't do it, stop.
00:52:23No.
00:52:28Come on, we'll have a rest.
00:52:34But not for long.
00:52:37Yeah.
00:52:46You mustn't go to sleep.
00:52:48Wake up.
00:52:50Wake me.
00:52:58You've had two and a half days.
00:53:07We know his name, his wife, his occupation, his ship.
00:53:10The only record we have on him, sir, apart from his job, is his birthplace.
00:53:16I don't have to stress the implications involved in this case.
00:53:26All right.
00:53:28I don't understand.
00:53:36Why does he still hang on to this boy?
00:53:38Why?
00:53:39He's making himself ten times the target.
00:53:40He may still have a use for the boy.
00:53:41Yes, but what use?
00:53:42As a sort of blackmail against capture?
00:53:44It's not a very pretty thought.
00:53:46It's appalling.
00:53:51The press have had the bare facts, but it's not enough.
00:53:54It's got to be rammed home to the public that the life of a boy of six is in the hands of a killer.
00:53:58A man who'd buy his own safety with the life of a child.
00:54:01Let there be no place where this man can hide or rest in safety.
00:54:05No cellar.
00:54:06No barn.
00:54:07No ditch.
00:54:08No field.
00:54:09Unless he's going to starve, sooner or later Lloyd must show himself to some person.
00:54:14Somewhere.
00:54:15Come in here.
00:54:35Come in.
00:54:37Come in, come in.
00:55:03I'm hungry.
00:55:07What do you want, Roy? Go roll carrot.
00:55:09Both.
00:55:22Down the other end.
00:55:37I'm hungry.
00:55:45Did you have a good sleep?
00:55:46Yes.
00:55:47Now, look, we've lost a lot of time.
00:55:49If the wakelet's dark again, we'll never get there.
00:55:51We have to risk it in the daylight.
00:55:53We should have been into those mountains by now.
00:55:57Let's go.
00:56:20I'm hungry.
00:56:21I'm hungry.
00:56:30There you are. That's the last.
00:56:32There's no more.
00:56:34Come on.
00:56:35I'm hungry.
00:56:43My legs are sore.
00:56:44Yes, I know.
00:56:54All right.
00:56:55We'll find somewhere.
00:56:56Someone have a sleep.
00:56:57Come on.
00:56:58Up.
00:56:59Bye.
00:57:28Bye.
00:57:29Bye.
00:57:32Bye.
00:57:33Bye.
00:57:34Bye.
00:57:36Bye.
00:57:40Bye.
00:57:42Bye, bye.
00:57:44Oh, my God.
00:58:14I can't go on. I'm hungry.
00:58:25Why did you have to follow me? I told you not to.
00:58:27Why am I going to be settled with you all the time? It's my life!
00:58:29It's all right.
00:58:45Don't cry now. We're going to eat. I'll get you some food. Come on.
00:58:51There you are. All right.
00:58:57I'll get you some food. Come on.
00:59:00There you are. All right.
00:59:03I'll get you some food.
01:01:27Sorry to bring you down, Mr. McDougal, but your front window's open.
01:01:35Oh, is it?
01:01:36Right, I'll close it.
01:01:37Thank you, Alec.
01:01:38Ah, well then.
01:01:38Good night.
01:01:39Good night to you, Alec.
01:01:39Who is it, Jamie?
01:01:45It was only, Alec.
01:01:46You left the window open.
01:01:47You left the window open.
01:01:48You left the window open.
01:01:54I'll make you a cup of tea.
01:02:08Thank you, Jamie.
01:02:16Thank you, Jamie.
01:02:17Thanks, Jamie.
01:02:52I'm frightened.
01:03:22I'm frightened.
01:03:52Chris.
01:04:08Get us some food, will you?
01:04:30I didn't know when you were coming.
01:04:34I didn't know when you were coming.
01:05:04I didn't know when you were coming.
01:05:33I'd better get him to bed.
01:05:55Chris, they're not staying here.
01:06:33You're not going to turn the kid out, too.
01:06:45Jack, you can't.
01:06:51You don't know the people around here like I do.
01:06:53What have they got to do with it?
01:06:55Listen, it's taken me ten years ever since I've been here to get myself known to them.
01:07:01If you're a stranger, they don't trust you.
01:07:03They're a queer lot.
01:07:05I've worked hard.
01:07:06I've worked hard, and at last I've won their respect, and I'm doing well for myself after all these years.
01:07:13Look, you can tell them this if it means all that to you.
01:07:17I came here tonight and you turned me away.
01:07:20He didn't even feed me.
01:07:21But you took the child in out of kindness.
01:07:23Nobody's going to blame you for that.
01:07:27You can't turn him out.
01:07:31Nobody down here knows I'm a connection of yours.
01:07:35Don't lose any sleep, Jack.
01:07:41I'll never tell anyone that you're a brother of mine.
01:08:05Well, this is it, Robbie.
01:08:19That's the end of it.
01:08:21I'm not going any farther.
01:08:23No more getting tired and hungry.
01:08:25I'm not hungry.
01:08:26I know you're not.
01:08:27But as soon as you've had a nice sleep, we're going to find somebody that'll look after you properly.
01:08:31We can't.
01:08:33You don't understand, do you?
01:08:36Nobody's going to knock you around anymore.
01:08:38And they won't take you back to that place you came from, not unless you want to go back.
01:08:41You're not going to leave me.
01:08:43I've got to, Robbie.
01:08:45You promised.
01:08:46I know, I know.
01:08:48But I did something very wrong, and I can't get away from it.
01:08:51You promised. You said you wouldn't leave me.
01:08:53I know I promised you.
01:08:55I did a lot of things I shouldn't have done to you.
01:08:58But this is the end of it.
01:09:00You promised. You promised.
01:09:03I know, I know.
01:09:08Let's get to sleep, shall we?
01:09:10Here we are.
01:09:12There we are.
01:09:13There.
01:09:15There.
01:09:17Oh, my God.
01:09:47Robby, Robby, wake up.
01:10:10The Herring fleet's in.
01:10:11We've got a chance.
01:10:12Herring fire!
01:10:16Herring fire!
01:10:18Herring fire!
01:10:20Herring fire!
01:10:28Robby!
01:10:30Herring fire!
01:10:34My God!
01:10:36Come on!
01:11:06Now remember, you stay well behind me.
01:11:36Come on.
01:12:00You!
01:12:02What are you up to?
01:12:06Got any longsters?
01:12:34Are you from the hotel?
01:12:35No.
01:12:36Where are you staying?
01:12:39Where are you going?
01:12:41Would you like to come fishing with me?
01:12:43You mean you wouldn't like to come fishing with me?
01:12:45Come on.
01:12:59Where are you going?
01:13:00Over there.
01:13:01Over where?
01:13:02There.
01:13:03I think you're daft. You don't know where you're going.
01:13:04I don't know where you're going.
01:13:12What are you frightened of him for?
01:13:14What are you frightened of him for?
01:13:15It's only my Uncle Robert.
01:13:16You don't believe me, do you?
01:13:18Hey, Uncle Robert.
01:13:19Hey, Uncle Robert.
01:13:20This kid's frightened of you.
01:13:22Hey, come back!
01:13:24Come back!
01:13:25Come back!
01:13:26Come back.
01:13:27Come back.
01:13:28Come back.
01:13:29Come back.
01:13:31Come back.
01:13:32Come back.
01:13:36Come back.
01:13:38Come back.
01:13:39Come back.
01:13:40Come back.
01:14:09Come back.
01:14:10Come back.
01:14:11Come back.
01:14:12Come back.
01:14:13Come back.
01:14:14Come back.
01:14:15You've done something wrong, haven't you?
01:14:16You've done something wrong, haven't you?
01:14:17Why, you wouldn't be running away all the time?
01:14:18You'd frighten my Uncle Robert now, would you?
01:14:25What have you done?
01:14:26Would you like me to pitch my Uncle Robert to you?
01:14:29What have you done?
01:14:30Hey!
01:14:32Hey!
01:14:33That's my dance book!
01:14:35Hey, come back!
01:14:36Hey!
01:14:37Come back!
01:14:38Hey!
01:14:39Hey!
01:15:05Dad!
01:15:08Get out to the sea with Gypsy Lass.
01:15:09A man and a wee boy.
01:15:10Good night!
01:15:11We've got a wee boy.
01:15:13We've got a wee boy.
01:15:17Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:15:22Wake up, Robbie.
01:15:51Come on, Robbie.
01:15:56Come on, Robbie. Wake up.
01:15:57No room for passengers on this boat.
01:15:59You've got to earn your keep.
01:16:03What do you want for your breakfast now?
01:16:05Eggs, bacon or sausage?
01:16:09What's wrong, Robbie?
01:16:15What's wrong?
01:16:21Don't you want your breakfast?
01:16:36Aren't you feeling well?
01:16:40What's wrong with you?
01:16:41Haven't you got a tongue in your head?
01:16:55What's wrong with you?
01:16:56Haven't you got a tongue in your head?
01:17:25What's wrong with you?
01:17:29We love you.
01:17:30We love you.
01:17:34We love you.
01:17:35We love you.
01:17:40We love you.
01:17:42We love you.
