00:00The End
03:55This is okay.
03:56You can stop here.
04:03That'll be 36 poppers.
04:05Thank you, miss.
04:08You're American?
04:09Yep.
04:11I shouldn't bank on getting this house, miss.
04:13Not down this road.
04:14Really?
04:16No.
04:18Thank you, miss.
04:20You don't find many colored brethren down here.
04:23Colored what?
04:23That's how it is, see?
04:26That's how it is, see?
04:26That's how it is, see?
04:26Yeah, I see.
04:28Hey!
04:29Hey!
04:56I see!
05:01Yes? Who is it?
05:03Mrs. Diamond?
05:05Yes?
05:06My name's Judy Marshall. Is your husband in?
05:09Why do you want him?
05:11I saw your husband at court this morning. He left in a hurry.
05:14Who are you?
05:15I'm a journalist. I know your husband. May I talk to you?
05:20What do you want to talk to me about?
05:22I work for American Magazine.
05:26I have credentials.
05:29Put them through the mailbox.
05:36May I come in?
05:43What's all this about?
05:45About your husband.
05:47Well, what about him?
05:49I've been helping him.
05:52May I come in?
05:59You said you were with my husband in court this morning. What happened?
06:02It didn't take long. The magistrate asked him if he had anything to say.
06:06He didn't, of course. He was fined fifty pounds bound over and left.
06:10Well, then why isn't he here? He said he'd come straight back.
06:14Could I talk to you, Mrs. Diamond?
06:16What about?
06:17About you.
06:18Well, what about me?
06:20It wouldn't be worth as much as a Diamond in Africa story, but Joyce Diamond in captivity. Interesting possibilities.
06:28How do you know about that? Not even the police know that.
06:31Do you think we could sit down?
06:42How do you know about that?
06:44We'll pay, shall we say, um, a thousand pounds?
06:47A thousand pounds?
06:47Okay, no haggling. Two thousand.
06:50Did John tell you?
06:52Only that it happened, not what happened.
06:55Oh, I see.
06:57Can I take your coat?
07:21Would you like a cup of tea?
07:23No, thank you.
07:24A drink?
07:25My husband left a bottle of something.
07:27Not while I'm on duty.
07:30I, um, I thought John didn't tea.
07:33Isn't that his name?
07:34Well, to his friends, yes.
07:35His close friends.
07:36Oh, I'm sorry.
07:38American, you know, no manners, brash, vulgar, familiar.
07:40You're not a close friend, then?
07:43Maybe you and I have different ideas of what closeness is.
07:47Well, I certainly hope so.
07:55I get the shakes too, Mrs. Diamond, after what you've been through.
08:01John said I wasn't to answer it when he was out.
08:02It might be John.
08:03Shall I answer it?
08:04No.
08:06No.
08:12Hello?
08:13Is that Mrs. Diamond?
08:15Yes.
08:16Could I speak to Mr. Diamond, please?
08:19He isn't here.
08:20He isn't there.
08:21He must be there by now.
08:23The case ended nearly an hour ago.
08:25Can I take a message?
08:26I'd rather speak to him personally.
08:28Please ask him to come to the phone.
08:30I told you.
08:31He isn't here.
08:32I find that hard to believe, Mrs. Diamond, that he'd leave you alone after your recent ordeal.
08:37It's positively inhuman.
08:39Who the hell are you?
08:40He must know there may be another attempt on you.
08:43He just leaves you to it.
08:44Alone.
08:46I'm not alone.
08:48Really?
08:48Don't tell me police protection.
08:50Diamond doesn't trust even them.
08:52I have a friend with me.
08:54Someone substantial, I trust.
08:56Someone courageous and with the strength of ten.
08:58That's right.
08:59His name is Mark Turson.
09:00Oh, Mrs. Diamond, really.
09:03I'm looking at Turson right now.
09:05He's very dead.
09:08You bloody murderer.
09:10Please, Mrs. Diamond.
09:12He simply got in the way.
09:15And I'm in the way too.
09:17What do you think?
09:19Go to hell.
09:23Can I get you a drink?
09:26Come on and sit down.
09:34John said he wouldn't be more than a few hours.
09:36Where's that bottle?
09:37What's happened to him?
09:37Why isn't he here?
09:38I wish I knew.
09:40Oh, don't bother.
09:40I'll do that.
09:41Where's that bottle you said he left?
09:42What?
09:43The bottle.
09:44Oh, it's in there, but I don't want to drink.
09:47I do.
09:49And I don't like drinking alone.
09:51Where's, uh, your British sense of hospitality?
09:59Brandy.
09:59Five star.
10:00Good stuff.
10:02John has the extravagance of a man who rarely indulges himself.
10:09He's a bit of a Puritan, really, isn't he?
10:13Distinctly squarish.
10:14Here.
10:14Get that down.
10:15You'll kindle the fires of resistance.
10:17Cheers.
10:21You're very brave, Mrs. Diamond.
10:24I think I've fallen for you.
10:26I'm very frightened.
10:29Only the brave are frightened, the fearless are plain stupid.
10:33Bottoms up.
10:38Tell me what happened when they kidnapped you.
10:41And make two thousand pounds.
10:43I'd have to call my editor for more.
10:46Want me to?
10:47Reverse the charges?
10:48How did you know about that?
10:50John rang me last night.
10:53I think you know John rather well, don't you?
10:56I know you pretty well, too.
10:59In ten minutes?
11:00How well do you know him?
11:02Ships that pass in the night, no skin off of anyone's nose.
11:06Not mine?
11:07Depends on how far you lean over the rail of a passing ship.
11:12Tell me what happened.
11:13What did they do?
11:14How in the hell did Turson get killed?
11:17For two thousand pounds.
11:19How much is that in dollars?
11:21About four thousand seven hundred and sixty dollars.
11:25I think I'm getting to know you rather well, too.
11:27You have a mind like a cash register in a supermarket.
11:30They make more mistakes.
11:31John is this week's bargain offer, family size pack.
11:35If I can find the right shelf, family.
11:37You don't want my story, you want his.
11:40Right again.
11:41Two thousand pounds is a bribe for me to put the pressure on him?
11:44Is that a bad reason? Cheap at twice the price?
11:48How much is his story worth?
11:50I'm authorized to pay twenty thousand pounds.
11:54God.
11:55When your divorce goes through, you won't get less than a third of that.
11:59Plus two thousand.
12:01How much do you get?
12:03More than money.
12:04Prestige.
12:05Which means importance, which means power.
12:10I'm on my way to the top, Mrs. Diamond.
12:13I like being number one.
12:15And John is just one more step in the ladder.
12:17Is that why you got to know him?
12:19Is that a bad reason?
12:20Oh, no.
12:21Only you wouldn't be number one there.
12:22I was that.
12:23I can still enjoy tourist areas.
12:29My lawyers tell me that under a divorce settlement in which the husband is guilty, the family home goes to
12:34the wife.
12:35Big deal.
12:37Since the divorce is a formality, this is my house, so get the bloody hell out of it, you black
12:41bitch.
12:55Would you like a mint?
12:57Get out.
12:58And leave you alone, Mrs. Diamond.
12:59You can face being on your own, can you, in the unfortunate absence of your husband?
13:12Take your bloody coat and get out.
13:16I'm on my way, Mrs. Pinky.
13:20But that's a real color of white.
13:22What else could it be?
13:23Pink with shame, pink with embarrassment, pink with self-disgust because the house across the road won't be sold to
13:27anyone the color of the earth it stands on.
13:32Look into your soul, Mrs. Diamond, and remember, blood is red.
13:36My blood, your blood, everybody's blood.
13:42Midnight, my blood, it was red.
13:58Miss Moll?
14:00Miss Moll?
14:04Miss Moll?
14:28what's going on there's someone in that empty house across the road who I don't know when he
14:34saw me looking he hid which window upstairs the front bedroom have you seen him before it was
14:39too fast but a man he's I'll call the police no John said not who in the hell does he
14:43think he
14:43is why isn't here now this morning he said he'd only be a few hours that they'd be interested
14:47in him at court not me here I don't think diamond gives a damn about you because I'll tell you
14:53this
14:53he doesn't give a damn about me and I got that news from unusually reliable source me you mind
15:00if I'm another brandy
15:16what do you really want a story simple as that one great big juicy story in print my husband's story
15:27when he's finished it what if it finishes him first then I'll just have to get it some other way
15:33by any means that's right that's all he means to you a story what means anything else to him
15:39so you'll stay and wait until he comes I don't know maybe
15:57perhaps I imagined it no you're too sober there's someone over there my inner Tom Tom's beating tell me so
16:05and it's big very very big do you know what's happened in Africa what's happening to banga in other states
16:16what people have done there how civil war was fixed by other men in other countries like not so great
16:23Britain men who all have the same colored money the international sun worshipers the men of gold gold
16:33take a mining concession of green copper another a blue zinc a few million tons of gray lead a touch
16:41of rusty quartz a generous helping of white magnesium top it all off with limitless black uranium sprinkle a few
16:49million gallons of red blood and what have you got gold
16:55one great big golden cake many slices for a few men so do I believe that there's some man in
17:06an empty house trying to put the screws on a wife of a man who's just mad enough to try
17:10to bring a gang of murderous gnomes down from their snowy mountain tops
17:16what do you think I believe where are you going my best bet is that little house across the road

24:19no safety there now no safety anywhere we know every move you make how does it feel
24:27who are you a potential friend mr diamond it's still time to change your mind bound over for 30 days
24:34as if the fine wasn't enough you'll have to be on your best behavior now would you ask miss marshall
24:40if
24:40you'd like to talk to me talk to who just tell her the gentleman who made her a somewhat remarkable
24:48offer yesterday with regard to the purchase of your story my story an offer to her didn't she tell
24:55you well well how interesting may i speak to her now please i'll ask her
25:04do you like to speak to a friend of yours who made you an offer yesterday a bid for me
25:20the answer is still no you change your mind quickly miss marshall goodbye and that goes for all of you
25:32what was the offer your story whatever my magazine would pay they'd triple it well they're coming
25:39down in price last week he was a hundred thousand shares any idea who he was he came out of
25:44the crowd
25:44he went back into the crowd describe him tallish grayish 50ish i don't know gray swayed shoes
25:57not another newspaper reporter i suppose much too well mannered you asked for time to think it over no
26:05doubt what is there to sell yet well there's the other story the one they'd like to see published
26:12the phony story of my thrilling escape from a villainous regime which i helped to overthrow and put the
26:16goodies in power there's one thing i don't understand only one why not write the phony story
26:28because it's phony why not write it pocket the money go on investigating and write the true one when
26:34you've got it shall i tell her if you know well i know you honest john diamond couldn't tell a
26:41lie to
26:42save his life or anyone else's is that bad oh did i make it sound bad yes oh it's admirable
26:48it's what
26:49makes it possible for you to go on living with yourself unfortunately it also makes it impossible
26:53for you to live with anyone else but it's still admirable he can't write a lie simple as that
27:00if he did he'd destroy his own image of himself he can't write another story later this is the truth
27:06folks the other was pure fiction which just happened to be convenient to write at the time
27:10he can't do it it's bloody hard work being honest john and he'd dare let up or he'd lose his
27:15grip of
27:16himself so if he wrote the story they want written end of case end of investigation end of story
27:23because it would be the end of honest john
27:27and if you don't understand that about him you're wasting your time because you don't understand
27:31anything about him is that right john i didn't realize honesty was one of the seven deadly sins
27:37it's one of the seven deadly virtues and they're harder to fight this man he must be close by he
27:46knew
27:46you were here did he give anything away no a name a company a political organization no didn't you get
27:51anything out of him no you're a bloody useful journalist aren't you perhaps you'll be better
27:55off in the kitchen too
27:59so
28:29Even these things come up pink.
28:45For what it's worth, my feelings are you should think twice about divorcing John.
28:51For what it's worth?
28:53For once I wasn't thinking about money.
28:55Oh, why not, for once?
28:58John isn't as tough as he makes out to be.
29:00You could twist him around your little finger if you wanted to.
29:03Didn't get you far, did it?
29:04I wasn't even trying.
29:05Oh, going to bed with him wasn't even trying.
29:07What other talents have you got?
29:09You've got them too if you use them.
29:13You want to see a demonstration?
29:16This is Croydon, not Soho.
29:19Okay.
29:20I'll leave you to your self-inflicted chores.
29:28Talk to who?
29:29Just tell her the gentleman who made her a somewhat remarkable offer yesterday with regard to the purchase of her
29:35story.
29:37My story, an offer to her?
29:39Can she take you a better, better than I'm interested in you?
29:42May I speak to her now, please?
29:46If you get the story, sorry, when you get the story, will you give it to me?
29:55Obviously, we'll pay, but I know you're not interested in money, so I say give.
30:00You'll never get it published in this country, you know that.
30:03But Whitehall can't put a D-notice on an American magazine.
30:06What is it?
30:09Nothing.
30:13There's something you don't quite understand about me.
30:19I'm a reporter, and I'm greedy for a scoop.
30:25But there's more to it.
30:28I'm black.
30:31In the States now, if you're not white, you're black.
30:34Not colored.
30:36That's an excuse word in the States.
30:38And when they're almost out of excuses, there's going to be a civil war unless people change.
30:42Are you listening?
30:44What's happening to Bangor?
30:46In other States?
30:48What people have done there?
30:50How civil war was organized by big business, by white big business in the West?
30:57Everything you're trying to prove, don't you see how important it is to America?
31:01The horror of it, the manipulation of it, the complete inhumanity of the whole thing.
31:06Don't you see how you might be able to help wake up America and make them think twice about what's
31:12going on in their own country?
31:14And maybe say not here, not only the whites, the blacks too.
31:18And maybe get down to the roots of things before today's rise become tomorrow's war.
31:22Because that's what's going to happen, Flawless Diamond, unless people stop and think.
31:30Think.
31:32And feel.
31:38So will you help a country that desperately needs help?
31:44My country?
31:48Wherever I go, whatever I do, my country.
31:57Will you help me, John?
32:01Please?
32:04Help me?
32:07Was that the demonstration?
32:12How did I do?
32:14Oh, you'd have fooled me.
32:16Right.
32:17So what chance does honest John have?
32:20Tough, cynical John Diamond who can resist anything in the world except an ideal.
32:25It's easy.
32:27What line do you think I should take?
32:29I mean, I can hardly do them.
32:30My heart bleeds my colored brethren bit, can I?
32:33Not in Elm Tree Gardens Croydon.
32:37Let's see, um, how about I believe in marriage bit?
32:43My bleeding heart is yours until death do us part.
32:45He believes it already if he'd admit it.
32:47Yes, that's the line.
32:48You can't go wrong.
32:49Oh, there's one thing you don't know.
32:50I don't believe in marriage.
32:51Not to him, anyway.
32:53Fine!
32:54You don't believe in marriage to him, and I don't believe in all that crap about my black brothers.
32:58I haven't got a single chromosome in common with a black African.
33:01It's people whose minds are still holding me along in the elastic-sided boots who think like that, like honest
33:05John Diamond.
33:06That's why he fell for it.
33:07You did fall for it, didn't you, honest John?
33:23It looks as though it's beginning.
33:50Stay away from that window.
33:51Why?
33:52Just stay away.
33:53Stay away.
34:05John, how bad was it in Africa, in that jail?
34:08Bad enough to make me unbalanced, if that's what you're getting at, which you are.
34:12You never carried a gun in your life.
34:14You never got mixed up with thugs before.
34:16They never got mixed up with me before.
34:18You were such a professional.
34:19Were a professional?
34:20One of the best.
34:22Well, you went about things the right way.
34:25You researched, traced the right documents, the right files, the right people.
34:29You went to the top.
34:30You didn't mess about with rubbish like Ozzie and Henderson, rubbishy little villains.
34:34I'd been back in England two weeks.
34:36The first week I researched.
34:37I went to Companies House and looked up the names of the boards of 137 companies.
34:40I have nearly 1,000 names.
34:41Perhaps a dozen of the men I'm looking for.
34:43Perhaps half a dozen, perhaps none.
34:44Because perhaps the names I really want aren't there at all.
34:48I spoke to officials at the Board of Trade.
34:49I was given official figures.
34:50Quite correct, I am sure.
34:52But they couldn't begin to explain the amount of food that never reached to Bangor.
34:54And the number of guns that did.
34:56I know because I was there.
34:58Nor is there any legal means of finding out how many of the millions that were collected in charity in
35:01this and other countries never reached to Bangor.
35:03Or where those millions have disappeared to.
35:05I spoke to the best financial reporters in Fleet Street and they knew less than I did.
35:08I spoke to three under-secretaries, two junior ministers, one senior minister, three members of the fraud squad, two men
35:12from the special branch, an old friend at the home office, a less friendly one at the foreign office, and
35:16two of the toughest villains still at liberty to commute between the east and west ends of London.
35:20All that emerged was a rather nasty picture of international wheeler dealing, which though nasty not to say obscenely modeled,
35:25is perfectly legal in the society we live in.
35:29I accomplished all this failure in one week, which isn't bad going even for a pro.
35:33So, I say failure because it didn't begin to reveal the international criminals that are involved.
35:37But as far as this country is concerned, I noised it through the land that my inquiries were almost complete.
35:42All I needed was one more name and that would be that.
35:45Now, oddly enough, that might well be true. I don't know.
35:47What I did know is that if I was on the right track, there'd be a response.
35:51And there was.
35:53You know what's happened since.
35:54I've been running so hard, there hasn't been time for more research, nor is it necessary.
35:58All I need to know is that one big name.
36:00The name of the man behind the men who give orders to the crummy little villains like those across the
36:04road right now.
36:04Which is why I have this.
36:06It isn't even loaded.
36:07But that's another fact they don't know.
36:10It's a prop to impress enfeebled minds that need such props.
36:14Because props like them support a superstructure that is long overdue for demolition.
36:18If this poor bloody world should stand any chance of survival...
36:21You say you need just one more name?
36:23One might do. If it's the right one, if it is, all else will follow.
36:25Well, I may...
36:26Yes?
36:29Well, nothing.
36:54I'm sorry about what I said earlier.
36:56Which particular remark over a period of 20 years?
36:58Oh, why are you so bitter? Is it my fault?
37:01I wouldn't have thought I ever had that much power over you.
37:06What are you sorry you said?
37:07About Tirsten, I said...
37:08I remember, don't...
37:10Well, I said he'd be alive now, but for you.
37:12I heard.
37:12I shouldn't have said it.
37:14I meant it to hurt. It wasn't right, because...
37:18Because?
37:21Because, big horse.
37:23You were fond of him in your way, weren't you?
37:26More than me in your way.
37:29You had one of those real man-to-man things that women don't understand.
37:33Well, not me, anyway.
37:36When we were in that room when Mark was dying,
37:39Why am I so frightened of dead bodies?
37:42I can't hurt you like live ones.
37:44Stupid, isn't it?
37:47Where was I?
37:49Oh, yes.
37:51When you saw Mark and he died,
37:54Do you know tears ran down your face?
37:56Oh, I don't mean you cry.
37:58I've never seen you cry.
37:59I don't believe you can.
38:01But tears ran down your un-crying face.
38:03I've never seen them for anyone else before, certainly not me.
38:07For a moment, I was actually jealous of a dead man.
38:10Corpse.
38:11Thing.
38:15I'm sorry what I said about Mark Tirsten being dead because of you.
38:18One under the belt.
38:21Sorry.
38:264.53pm.
38:27I was right, there's more than one of them.
38:31Cork fractional sight of two men in ground floor front room.
38:35Too much shadow for description.
38:37I can't see much for this tree.
38:40Now stay away from the windows, both of you.
38:53Did you listen to a word I said?
38:55I heard you.
38:56My God, I'm trying.
38:58You're divorcing me because you don't love me.
39:00Well, it takes some doing to admit you're capable of loving someone else, anyone else,
39:04to admit it to myself, let alone you.
39:07Interesting mistake.
39:08What?
39:08You said I was divorcing you.
39:10If you remember, you're divorcing me.
39:11You just don't want to hear about Tirsten, do you?
39:13He's dead.
39:14That's it.
39:15John, there's something you want to know about Mark, something I have to tell you.
39:18I said it's over.
39:19Don't you want to know that Tirsten told those two men he was part of the organization you're
39:23trying to break?
39:26What are you trying to do?
39:27I'm trying to remember, that's what, something I don't want to remember.
39:29He said what?
39:31You don't want to listen because you're hurt.
39:32I don't want to remember because it's a nightmare.
39:35I know you're hurt.
39:36I tried to explain I understood that.
39:38But please listen because I'm trying to remember something that scares the hell out of me.
39:43I'm listening.
39:44Every word.
39:45Now, what did Tirsten say?
39:47Word for word.
39:48Well, he was bluffing, I'm sure.
39:51He was bluffing to get us out alive.
39:54What did he say?
39:55What actual words did he use when he said he was part of the organization?
40:00Well, he said, my name's Clark.
40:03I remember that.
40:03Clark?
40:05Well, he was there, Ozzy there, and Henderson there.
40:09And Mark said, my name's Clark.
40:12I'm an associate of...
40:14Yes, associate of who?
40:17Of...
40:17For God's sake, Joyce, this may be vital.
40:18It may be what I need to put an end to this damn nightmare.
40:20Now, Mark wouldn't bluff without something to go on.
40:22What was the name?
40:23Associate of who?
40:23Oh, I can't think if you'd shout at me.
40:25I never could.
40:26I'm sorry.
40:26I'm sorry.
40:28Just try to remember.
40:30I'm trying.
40:31It's no good.
40:31I can't put my mind there.
40:32No, no, you're trying too hard.
40:34Let your mind go.
40:35Think of anything you like.
40:37What do you mean?
40:49You're right.
40:49He did make you look like me.
40:51Huh.
40:52Funny, I never noticed.
40:54I suppose you don't see things you don't want to see.
40:57Chicky little devil.
40:58I must say that for 11 years old, that's really very good.
41:01I spoke to him this morning.
41:04How is he?
41:05Fine.
41:06He sent you his love.
41:09You still enjoying the farm?
41:11It all seems to be.
41:13Do you know, it hasn't changed since our first holiday there.
41:16Terry was six, remember?
41:17First time I'd seen real countryside, wasn't it?
41:19Remember taking him fishing for the first time?
41:21Little did you know it was my first time, too.
41:23That tin of worms turned my stomach.
41:25The sight of him impaling them on his hook.
41:27That was why I was asleep when you came.
41:30I drifted into a reverie of editorships and world scoops.
41:33I'd only just broken into Fleet Street, remember?
41:35I saw the two of you on the bank.
41:37And as I came toward you, you got your first bite.
41:41You had a little bell on the end of your rod and you were asleep.
41:44And the bell started ringing.
41:45Oh, fish-tugging bell ringing.
41:47You suddenly sat bolt upright, put that empty beer bottle to your ear
41:50and said, hello, news desk here.
41:55Oh, Terry got so brown.
41:58Oh, that little body so beautiful.
42:01With filthy feet, he didn't wear shoes for the week.
42:03What?
42:05Don't say anything.
42:06I've been trying to remember.
42:08Now, you say you needed to know the name of the man
42:10who was giving orders to Ozzie and the West Indian who shot Mark.
42:12That's right.
42:13Well, it's all so confusing.
42:15Before you arrived...
42:17Oh, God, I can't remember.
42:19But the name McKinney was mentioned, I'm sure of it.
42:21There was another name, too.
42:24There was someone else.
42:26Someone else there?
42:26No, someone else mentioned.
42:29Well, Joyce, try to remember.
42:34Oh, it's no good.
42:36I can't.
42:39John, are those men likely to get at Terry?
42:42Is he safe?
42:43Not as long as they are, no.
42:46Well, I must go to him.
42:47I must go to Terry.
42:48Joyce, listen, please.
42:49Just give me a little more time, I beg you.
42:50A little more time.
42:51I have to find out who is giving the orders.
42:53And now's my only chance while he's sticking his neck out over me.
42:56Now, Terry's perfectly safe for the moment.
42:57You spoke to him this morning.
42:58They could be down there now.
42:59No, they're not.
43:00They're over there in their empty house.
43:01I'm sure it's them.
43:03Now, Joyce, look.
43:05Try to remember.
43:06I know you don't want to...
43:07Todd.
43:08Todd.
43:09That was the other name.
43:11Commander Todd.
43:12McKinley and Commander Todd.
43:14Todd?
43:16McKinley, I don't know, but...
43:18Todd rings a very loud bell.
43:21Mark couldn't have made that.
43:27Look up how many McKinley's that are on the phone book.
43:31Commander Todd.
43:32Mark couldn't have made that up.
43:34He just couldn't.
43:36Where are you coming?
43:38I have two names now.
43:40I want to see their faces when they hear them.
43:42From me.
43:49We stay here, remember?
43:51Let them sweat it out.
44:11You must realize it.
44:13It has been empty for some considerable time.
44:17McKinley?
44:18Commander Todd?
44:20I beg your pardon.
44:23McKinley, Todd.
44:25Fuller.
44:25Of Fuller and Schwartz.
44:27And I can assure you we are the sole agents of this property.
44:30I don't know who McKinley and Todd are.
44:33But if you're interested, you'll have to deal with us, Fuller and Schwartz.
44:36And there is a notice outside which does say, by appointment only.
44:41Who are you?
44:42I don't know what business that is of yours.
44:45My name is Diamond.
44:47Ring a bell?
44:48No, it doesn't.
44:49That explains it.
44:50If you could wait just a few moments.
44:52Explains what?
44:53Well, I presume that you've come about the valuation on your own property.
44:58Your wife came to see us a few weeks ago.
45:01Now, if you could just wait until I've shown Mr. Jackson here...
45:03Jennison?
45:04Yes, as a matter of fact, Mr. Jackson...
45:07I take it you have decided to sell your own house.
45:11Why?
45:12Well, since Mr. Jackson's here, he might care to step across the road and look at your property.
45:17Similar to this, sir, but rather better condition.
45:20At a rather higher price, I presume.
45:22A little more naturally, but it's in such a perfect order that you wouldn't have to spend any money on
45:28dry rot or rising dammen.
45:31Now, if you'd care to step into the front room here and just take a look at the outside.
45:37Fifty-seven.
45:38More apartment.
45:50Cash, customer.
45:52Rare these days.
45:54Nearly sold this damn chase three times already, but it's always the same story.
45:57They can't get a mortgage.
45:59Now, he doesn't need one.
46:01I think I might be able to push him up to eight and a half for your house.
46:05Yes, not bad.
46:07I wouldn't mind looking over it when we've finished here.
46:09Well, you're very lucky to be first in the market, Mr. Jackson.
46:13Well, that'd be all right then, Mr. Diamond.
46:14Shall we say ten minutes?
46:16What?
46:17I'm sorry.
46:18You'll have to ask my wife.
46:21I don't think so.
46:22Not at the moment.
46:24I'm sorry to have troubled you.
46:25Will you mention it to her then?
46:28Tell her I'll be across to see her very soon.
46:32Yes, all right.
46:34Bye.
46:35Bye, Mr. Diamond.
46:37Now, the kitchen is this way, sir.
46:39I haven't finished with the stairs yet.
46:42Look, don't tell me that it'll be right.
46:43Well, as I said, this property has been open for quite a second.
46:46I'm sorry.
46:50I'm sorry.
46:56I'm sorry.
47:00I'm sorry.
47:04I'm sorry.
47:05I'm sorry.
47:07I'm sorry.
47:07I'm sorry.
47:07I'm sorry.
47:08I'm sorry.
47:08I'm sorry.
47:08I'm sorry.
