00:14Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.
00:30Oh, my God.
01:08Oh, my God.
01:30Oh, my God.
02:27Oh, my God.
02:33Emilia.
02:34Emilia.
03:16The strange case of the Red Circle started in New York and ended in the Antipodes.
03:22But first, I should explain how two men with the initial G came to be in London.
03:30Gennaro was the hero, Black Georgiano the villain, and both men loved Emilia.
04:02Yes, what can I...
04:03You have a room to let?
04:04Ah, well, you see, I don't...
04:07Who is it, Albert?
04:08The wife, she usually says to this, you see.
04:11A visitor, my dear.
04:12Eh, wanting a room.
04:15All right, Albert.
04:17You go into your boat.
04:19Now, sir, what do you require?
04:22Is it a room for the night?
04:24Or for a longer stay?
04:32Well, Mrs. Warren, I cannot think you have any particular reason for uneasiness.
04:39And you note, I have other things to engage me.
04:43Holmes, the matter of a lodger remaining unseen in his room for more than a week is surely of some
04:49passing interest.
04:50If I were a lodger, she wouldn't see me for weeks on end.
04:55That doesn't trouble you, does it, Mrs. Hudson?
04:57Nothing troubles me where you're concerned, Mr. Holmes, but...
05:00If you remember, you arranged an affair for a lodger of Mrs. Warren's a year ago.
05:06Yes, you did, sir.
05:07An Italian gentleman, a Mr. Fermani.
05:12Enrico Fermani.
05:17Mr. Fermani never stopped talking of your kindness, sir.
05:20How you brought light into the darkness.
05:26It was a fire tonight, I think.
05:31Let us hear about this, lodger.
05:40It frightens me, Mr. Holmes.
05:42I can't sleep for fright.
05:44Hearing his footsteps moving here and moving there.
05:48From early morning to late at night.
05:50And never, never to catch so much as a glimpse of him.
05:54Mr. Warren is as nervous as I am.
06:01What's the fellow hiding from, Mr. Holmes?
06:04What's he done?
06:06You see, except for the maid.
06:07She's all alone in the house.
06:09No, I can't stand it.
06:12My nerves can stand it.
06:13What's the need of the coat?
06:14Oh, I'm sitting.
06:18I'm sitting.
06:18I'm sitting.
06:19I'm sitting.
06:20I'm sitting.
06:26I'm sitting.
06:28Take time to consider, Mrs. Warren.
06:30The smallest point may be the most essential.
06:39all he came ten days ago and he asked me my terms do I told him 12 shillings a
06:46week there's a small sitting room and a bedroom all complete all at the top of
06:51the house and he said he'd pay me three pounds a week for it three pounds yes
06:57sir three pounds a week as long as I kept his terms what terms but he wanted
07:03a key to the house that's all right most of my lodgers haven't but he was to be
07:09left entirely to himself and never on any account to be disturbed there's nothing
07:16very wonderful about that well not in reason but this is out of all reason he's
07:21been there ten days morning noon and night and neither she nor mr. Warren nor the
07:26maid has one set eyes and apart from the first night he's never once gone out we
07:32did go out on the first night oh yes he did he returned very late I've gone to bed
07:37but mr. Warren saw him it was after midnight he'd come back
07:47these meals I mean surely he eats but he rings when he wants them we put them on a
07:53chair outside his door if he wants anything else he writes it on a bit
07:59of paper like this just in pencil just the one word nothing more here the maid leaves the daily
08:15chronicle with him every morning at breakfast why is it printed oh I can see
08:22his handwriting what's the good news me well the pencil is broad tipped and violet tinted and it's used with
08:36considerable pressure the paper's been torn off at the side before the printing
08:41was done you can see the yes of soap is probably partly gone suggesting haste or
08:49caution the man's age and appearance oh he's under 30 sir he's very dark middle
08:57height clean-height clean-shaven oh has an accent like mr. for money of course no name no sir the
09:06letters
09:06or callers his luggage labels stickers white star ten days ago New York I think that
09:24uh we must wait until we have a little more material please vanish both of them thank you
09:37thank you thank you mr. Holmes oh thank you doctor oh leave it to me mrs. Hudson
09:58you must admit homes there are some points of interest only that the man now in the rooms may not
10:05be the
10:05one who engaged them yes of course I hadn't thought of that and he went out immediately after taking the
10:12rooms and returned at midnight why a substitution well opens up a pleasurable field for intelligent
10:22speculation and there is one line of investigation this is warren's former lodger every cover money of
10:31Naples he works backstage at the Royal Opera House I you helped him find a close relative once a simple
10:46matter 37 catchball street hmm you've added something a friend to his fellow countryman in need do you suppose he
10:56could have recommended his former lodgings to a fellow countryman in need possibly
11:02hmm well it doesn't explain the lodger's behavior behavior behavior what behavior how do you know this address mr. Sherlock
11:19Holmes mr. Holmes he always keeps a record of his past clients but if Holmes has something to ask why
11:28does he not come himself
11:29why send you Dr. Watson well I do on occasion act for myself well I cannot help you I'm afraid
11:39I know nothing of this lodger of mrs. Warren's is he perhaps a fellow countryman of yours recently arrived from
11:46America in need of help then tell him I'm here if he needs me that is all I can say
11:52excuse me I must go to work now
11:59it may be that mrs. Warren it may be that mrs. Warren needs help the man is disturbing her household
12:03why what does he do to them well it's more a case of what he doesn't do he doesn't appear
12:08from dawn till dusk he has his meals on the tray left outside the door if he's a fugitive from
12:14justice we should turn him over to the police police
12:20no no no
12:26come on
12:35if there is a problem
12:36Holmes knows where to find me
12:39at the theater not here never here doctor you understand
12:43you have enemies in your line of work
12:46everyone has enemies whatever they do
12:49they're not true of life
12:51but some are more at risk than others with their beliefs
12:55and their courage
12:58I do what I do doctor
13:01don't make me out to be a saint
13:04now please excuse me
13:33let's go
13:36Now, this is dated, uh, eight weeks ago.
13:39Detective Rimmer of the Pinkerton Agency...
13:41Dave Rimmer.
13:42...said at the scene of the slaying,
13:43we believe this is the work of a Neapolitan society
13:47allied to the old Carbonari known as the Red Circle.
13:50Famous throughout Europe, a branch has now been planted in Brooklyn.
13:55Detectives are anxious to question a Giuseppe Georgiano.
13:59Now, for Marley was hiding something else.
14:00I can't describe the feeling, but there was an old woman who I took to be his mother.
14:04His mother?
14:06You went to his home?
14:07Yes.
14:09A face full of sorrow and secrets.
14:12Is this the person that you helped, Holmes?
14:14If you're holding something back, I should like you to tell me.
14:20By going to his home,
14:23you may have put Armane's life in danger.
14:26What?
14:30He's a point of refuge for the Italian community in London.
14:33A beacon of light, if you will.
14:36A dark web of devilry.
14:39The Red Circle.
14:43God.
14:45And this Georgiano.
14:47Black Georgiano.
14:50He has earned the name of death, La Morte, in southern Italy and far beyond.
14:59He's red.
15:01After the elbows in murder.
15:03Is it possible that this black Georgiano is the man at Mrs. Warren?
15:07No, but there may be some connection.
15:08Watson, we have work to do.
15:10Out of the opera house.
15:12And then chain cross.
15:14To send it to the ground to my friend in the river.
15:41Wonderful, Miss Leighman.
15:43Just one small piece.
15:53Enrico Fioramani.
15:57Finalmente, amico mio.
16:00You have been troublesome to me for a long time.
16:05But now you help me.
16:08In return for your life.
16:12Genaro Luca, where are you hiding him?
16:19Are you to me, Enrico?
16:22Dove lai nascosto?
16:24Dove!
16:24I don't know what I'm going to do
16:49Nobody's allowed in here
16:51Oh, it's you, Mr. Holmes
16:59Mr. Holmes
17:01Hawkins, what brings you here?
17:03Same thing that brings you, I expect
17:05Well, you got onto it so fast, I can't imagine
17:07Different threads
17:09Leading up to the same tangle
17:11We've come to see Enrico Fermani
17:13But Fermani's dead
17:15He was found with his throat cut
17:17Less than two hours ago
17:18Up here
17:20Murderer got clean away, I'm afraid
17:24Watson
17:37You're right, Holmes
17:40I should not have gone this morning
17:43I might have saved a life
17:44I don't think you can blame yourself for that
17:50Golden boys and girls all must
17:54As chimney sweepers come to dust
18:05A person arrives alone in London
18:08He seeks help from Fermani's fellow countryman
18:12Who places him for safety in Mrs. Waddle's lodging
18:14And Fermani is murdered rather than give away the hiding place
18:19No, no
18:21No
18:22For that we can't be sure
18:26But who killed him?
18:28Giorgiano?
18:30Is Giorgiano in England?
18:32What does he want with this lodger?
18:35The person in that room is entirely alone and at risk
18:38I mean, even a letter might be intercepted
18:40How does a message reach him from the outside?
18:42Except, by that most valuable hunting ground ever given to the student of the unusual
18:50Agony, Collins
18:52We need only concern ourselves with the Daily Chronicle
18:58Of the past two weeks
19:01Which our lodger collects every morning
19:05After his breakfast
19:09Oh, dear me
19:12What a chorus of cries and groans
19:15What a ragbag of singular happenings
19:19A lady with a feather boar
19:24A princess skating club
19:27Pardon
19:29Holmes, listen to this
19:31Be patient, we'll find some means of communication
19:34Meanwhile, this column, G
19:39Can you pick up a trace again?
19:42Ah, here we are
19:43Here
19:45I'm making successful arrangements
19:48Patience and prudence
19:49The clouds will pass G
19:55No, nothing
20:01Here, here
20:02The path is clearing
20:04If I find chance to signal message
20:06Remember code as agreed
20:08That's two days ago
20:12Mrs. Hudson
20:15Mrs. Hudson
20:15What is it, Mr. Holmes?
20:16I'm washing curtains
20:18The Daily Chronicle
20:19Yesterday and today
20:20If you be so kind
20:23Patience and prudence
20:25Patience and prudence
20:25Ah, the affair begins to grow more intelligible
20:38fingertips
20:39I can't believe
20:42Rain
20:42Wizard
20:42Oh the road
20:58Oh!
20:58Oh!
21:08Oh!
21:21Oh!
21:24A house with porch and black door first!
21:28First floor, window right, after dusk, G-A-R-G.
21:34Black Giordiano.
21:36Could it be a trap to draw the person out?
21:39Unlikely.
21:40Well, should we not tell the police
21:41what we know about the Red Circle?
21:42Tell the police!
21:43They find it difficult not to deal with the facts
21:46without confusing them with our suppositions.
21:49Oh, listen to this.
21:51Motivless murder, according to Inspector Hawkins, really.
21:56Mr. Holmes! Doctor, you must come quickly.
21:59There's been a kidnapping.
22:02This is a police matter, Mr. Holmes.
22:04I'm throwing that lodger out.
22:06I'd have gone straight up and told him so if that was...
22:08But she thought it only right to ask your opinion first, Mr. Holmes.
22:12A large pot of tea, please, Mrs. Hudson.
22:18I'm at the end of my patience when it comes to knocking my old man about.
22:22Who knocking about?
22:23Oh, I wish I knew that.
22:25What happened this morning, sir?
22:28Mr. Warren.
22:29He's a timekeeper at Norton and Waylights and Tottenham Court Road.
22:34He has to leave the house before seven in the morning.
22:38You would greatly help me if I could speak to him myself.
22:42All right.
22:46Take care of Holmes's heart.
22:48Can you speak, Mr. Warren?
22:50Well, I hadn't gone ten paces before two men crept up behind me.
22:59I threw a coat over his head, bundled him into a cab and drove off and shot him out on
23:06Hampstead Heath.
23:08Oh, dreadful.
23:10What did you observe?
23:13I took the bus home.
23:16Before the bus?
23:18These men, did you observe their appearance?
23:21No.
23:22I was picked up as if by magic and dropped as if by magic.
23:29Three of them at least was in on it.
23:32Maybe four.
23:34Did you hear them talk?
23:36One of them swore some holes in Italian.
23:42Money is not everything.
23:44I'll have him out of here before the day is done.
23:47I should like to meet this lodger of yours.
23:50What time does he take his lunch?
23:52One o'clock sharp.
23:54Is there anywhere where we might conceal ourselves?
23:57Yes, there's a box room upstairs.
24:00Is there a looking glass?
24:02Yes, there's one on the chest of drawers outside on the landing.
24:06Excellent.
24:07Come, Watson.
24:09What about me then?
24:11You've got 40 minutes.
24:32It's clear now that his enemies mistook their man.
24:35What they would have done if they'd got him bears no thinking.
24:38But they didn't.
24:39Do you see what I see?
24:42A house with a porch and black door.
24:44With a room to let, to which G could have access.
24:50Holmes, I feel very strongly that we should inform Scotland Yard.
24:53Not yet.
24:54We are on watch.
24:57And may be being watched.
25:00Let's see what lies behind these lodgings.
25:21How's he feeling?
25:23Oh, he's all right.
25:24He just likes a first native.
25:26Surely.
25:27Yes, dear.
25:29Okay.
27:15Mr. Holmes.
27:17Bolt your door and let no one in until we return.
27:20Did you see him?
27:21Mrs. Warren, trust me.
27:32I don't know when he's coming back.
27:34He gave me some money and I haven't seen him since.
27:36A foreign gentleman, you say?
27:38Definitely.
27:39And I don't care for foreigners.
27:40Oh, really?
27:42So, if you want it, gentlemen, I'm sure we can come to an arrangement.
27:47Put in a horse, sir, when you finish.
27:53I've been in here.
27:54I've been in here.
27:56Perfect.
27:57Look, Watson.
28:00The first floor window of the lodgings, an agitated lady.
28:06Only a few more hours to wait before the signal.
28:10After dusk, gee.
28:12Hmm.
28:15It has all the makings of some love escapade.
28:19Love?
28:23Love may be at the root of it, but her face, or what's in her face, she fears for her
28:32life.
28:33I consider a couple seek refuge in London from some instant and terrible fear.
28:41The man desires her utmost safety and arranges to communicate in such original fashion that not even the landlady knows
28:51of the substitution.
28:53Those pretty messages to prevent the fact that she's a woman being revealed by her handwriting.
29:01Look.
29:04A candle and matches.
29:07Let's see.
29:09But there's no need for this now.
29:11Surely, then, can't we just simply bring them together?
29:14And guarantee that we'll protect them forever from the red circle?
29:18No.
29:21We must let them play this thing out.
29:26I must return briefly to Baker Street.
29:29Do you have reason enough to stay in the lodging?
29:31Just to Warren's health, it gives me every excuse.
29:34It might be advisable for me to bring back your revolver.
29:37No need to, man. I have it.
29:39Good.
29:39Spend it.
29:48I'll see you within the hour.
30:00I'll do you this justice, Mr. Holmes.
30:02I was never in a case yet. I didn't feel stronger for having you on my side.
30:06Thank you, sir.
30:08Fugitives may be Gennaro and Emilia Luca.
30:11If so, in grave danger.
30:13Expect agent imminently.
30:15Regards, Abe Rimmer.
30:17The agent's here.
30:18He arrived from New York this morning.
30:20His name's Leverton.
30:22Leverton! I know of him.
30:23The man he's after is Black Georgiano, leader of the Red Circle.
30:30Do we score over you for once, Mr. Holmes?
30:33You must give us best some of the time.
30:38I think that we should pool our resources.
30:44Hmm?
31:06There's some over there.
31:13Mr. Holmes?
31:14I'm not speaking for me.
31:16No.
31:18Shh.
31:22Shh.
31:25Oh.
31:28Keep the beast downstairs.
31:30I must have a word with Signora Luca.
31:47Signora Luca, it's Sherlock Holmes. I must speak to you.
31:52Oh, no. No.
31:58Your husband, Giannara, will be safe and safe with you if you will place yourself in our hands.
32:10Scotland Yard is watching the house and Mr. Leviton is on his way to New York.
32:18Mr. Leviton?
32:26We shall not let any harm come to you. Please let me in.
32:33Please?
32:40I'm not going up there again. Never.
32:43Oh, don't be silly, Vera. Don't be silly. You know what the doctor said. It was just a cat scratching.
32:49No, it wasn't. It lifted.
32:51Mrs. Hudson, would you make Vera a cup of tea, please?
32:55What is going on in this house? Noises, lights going off.
33:00There shall be the death of me. Oh, my God.
33:04I was born in Posillipo, near Naples. My father was chief lawyer.
33:12Gennaro had no money and no position, nothing. But his beauty, his strength and energy.
33:21My father forbade the match and we ran away. We were married in Bari. I sold my jewels to bring
33:29us to America.
33:33Fortunes smiled at first. Gennaro saved a rich Italian from some ruffians in the Bowery.
33:39He was Signor Castalotte, of Castalotte and Zamba, the fruit importers.
33:48Gennaro became like a son to him.
34:01Tell me about this visitor. This friend of your husband's from Posillipo.
34:07He's no friend. Gennaro brought him home one day. They had met in the street. He came again and again.
34:18He talked and raved about politics and social questions and what he meant to do, whirling his great arm.
34:26His voice was like thunder in our little house.
34:29And your husband?
34:32He sat pale and listless. At first I thought it was dislike.
34:40But then I understood. It was a deep, secret fear.
34:48I brought him out of love for me by all we held here to tell me why this man overshadowed
34:54him.
35:01In his wild young days, when all the words seemed against him, he had joined a brotherhood,
35:10Il Cerchio Rosso, the Red Circle. He thought its purpose was to put right the injustice of life.
35:22Once you've taken its dreadful earth.
35:29Tell me about you and Giorgiano.
35:38I had noticed for some time when he came to us, his eyes were always turned upon me.
35:46his terrible, glaring eyes.
35:51And one evening...
35:54I had awakened what he called love in him.
35:58Emilia.
35:59Mio solo grande.
36:02But it was the love of a brute. A savage.
36:13A savage!
36:25A few days later, there was a Red Circle meeting.
36:32Signor Castellotte had been approached for money and refused them.
36:38Now they planned to kill him.
36:40They drew lots.
36:50It was fixed.
36:52It was Georgiana's revenge for my rejecting him.
36:56Gennaro.
36:58Piucaro amico.
37:03My dearest friend.
37:09In all the world.
37:12And then you both went to the police?
37:15I went alone.
37:17That was brave.
37:18Yes, but what has it done?
37:21They got us away, but friends still die.
37:24We shall never be rid of that beast. Never.
37:29And now you must go.
37:31I've said too much and broken my promise to my husband.
37:34Go, please.
37:36Go.
37:53Go, please.
37:55The dead.
38:00See you all day long.
38:01Go, please.
38:32Enrico would have wished it, go safely to a new life.
38:37Grazie.
39:17He can't stay here all night.
39:22Well, if he has to, won't you, Doctor?
39:27Oh.
39:28Well, in that case, I wouldn't mind a game of whist.
39:34Do you play whist, Doctor?
39:59Mr. Holmes?
40:03Emilia. Emilia. Mi amore.
40:14Son venuto. Apprenditi.
40:23Emilia.
40:33I've set my men on watch, Mr. Holmes.
40:36What are you expecting to happen?
40:39Well, there are times when the art of detection is of little use.
40:44We must wait upon the unpredictable.
40:47I've had some experience of that in my time.
40:50I can say only that we are expecting Senora Luca's husband.
40:56You must let him pass. Your men must not distract him.
41:00They know that.
41:01And our murderer?
41:02Oh, he's about.
41:06Somewhere.
41:09Waiting his chance.
41:10We have a good description from the American.
41:13Leviton.
41:14We'll be ready.
41:17Look.
41:22Yes.
41:25Oh, that's my goodness.
41:40Ah!
41:43Oh!
41:46Ah!
41:46Ah!
41:47Ah!
42:05Senor Luca, you must give me the signal.
42:09Go away. I don't trust you. I trust no one but my husband.
42:12I'm obliged to you, doctor.
42:14The main thing is just to keep it still as possible.
42:16Fine.
42:19Mr. Holmes.
42:20Holmes?
42:21This is Mr. Leviton of the Pinkerton Agency.
42:24Leviton!
42:26Of the Long Island Cave Mystery, I'm honored to meet you.
42:30The honor is mine, sir.
42:31Well, well, well.
42:33I'm sorry we had to meet like this.
42:35You're a brave man. I saw you on the roof.
42:39When you're on the trail of a lifetime, Mr. Holmes,
42:41you put all thoughts of personal safety out of your mind.
42:45The brute got away, I suppose.
42:47Yes, but he'll be back soon.
42:50There's something in this house that he wants badly.
42:54Oh, yes, I know.
42:55Thank you, doctor. I'm fine, just fine.
42:57Is the lady upstairs safe?
42:58Yes, but trusting no one.
43:01I've seen this wait for a husband's signal.
43:05What signal, Mr. Holmes?
43:06Good morning.
43:18Yes, sir.
43:25What did he say?
43:26I've heard.
43:27What shall I say?
43:28Good morning, sir?
43:28All right.
43:30He is on his head.
43:34Well, let me go.
43:36before killing him.
43:37Oh, should we not go upstairs to reassure Mrs. Luke?
43:40She won't admit us once.
43:42She'll only answer to her husband.
43:44Oh, look, Hawkins.
43:47Not too conspicuous.
43:50Yes, Inspector Hawkins, he seems an able fellow.
43:53Well, the Scotland Yard's finest.
43:55He knows his business.
44:17Gentlemen, Shannara Luca has just gone in.
44:22So far, so good.
44:24Mrs. Luca came to us the night the Red Circle planned
44:27to kill Castellotti.
44:30They'd already murdered his partner, Zamba.
44:34We managed to round up most of the gang,
44:36but Black Georgiano slipped the net.
44:41When we heard he'd left for England,
44:43I followed after him fast as I could.
44:47I got in touch with Scotland Yard, but he'd gone to ground.
45:00You take me back up!
45:02You must take me to a drink!
45:05This is gonna be a chip.
45:16Come back!
45:18Remember me?
45:24You must take me to a seal of this.
45:26Come on.
45:31You and the Soviets will take me to join.
45:35Heaven will take you to join Brazil
45:35Taevent.
45:35Then a treasure in the ν•΄οΏ½
45:52There's a single light. What does it mean?
45:55Two lights.
46:00Gone.
46:01No, there it is again.
46:06Three lights measured slow.
46:11What's he saying? What does it mean?
46:14Nothing. Nothing.
46:17But his next actions must confirm it.
46:21He must come here to collect her.
46:32It's gone.
46:34The message received.
46:36But what message?
46:43Gennaro.
46:46My dearest friend in all the world.
46:52And betrayer of the brotherhood.
46:58There's no message. There's somebody with him.
47:04What's along?
47:05Did you hear that, Holmes?
47:07Yeah. Danger.
47:09My God, look.
47:10She's out there on the street.
47:11Quick.
47:12What's her?
47:32Hawkins, you're out there on the street.
47:40Hawkins, your murderer is up there.
47:42I say, don't you dare to find a ph
47:43man anomalousie, don't do you inquire?
47:46Why wouldn't youΠ΄Π΅at the callη’— not doing anything?
48:09There's not like 10 millionε€±i were there on the farm,
48:11who's the man who's the man of the man of the land of the lizard.
48:12Now we're going to save you.
48:21Watson, take them away from this honor.
48:27Oh, my dear.
48:29I thought I would not be able to leave you.
48:36What do you want?
48:38We're going to save you.
48:52I'll take those tickets sir please our ship sails at dawn
49:07what are you going to do with him inspector he'll be arrested and tried for the murder of
49:11Georgiana that is the law well I don't know what your British law may be but I guess that
49:18in New York this lady's husband will receive a pretty general vote of thanks
49:25there's not a chance on earth that will condemn this man I don't think mr. and mrs. Luca have too
49:30much to fear but we have to go through the procedures take them downstairs no doubt if
49:42you'd been here on your own mr. Holmes you'd have found a different solution the law is what we live
49:49with inspector justice is sometimes harder to achieve but I still don't understand is how
49:58you came to be mixed up in all this in the first place good night inspector good night mr. Holmes
50:37English justice look kindly on young couple and soon afterwards they left for Australia there they
50:44found a new and happier life free from the threat of the red circle
