04:20Please enjoy.
04:23Not enough lemon juice.
04:25Too much ice.
04:27And I did not like the way you shook it.
04:31Too violent.
04:33Of course.
04:35Excuse me.
04:38They think I'm too violent.
04:41It's a violent art.
04:45Good thing I didn't waste any gin on them then.
04:49You're a quick learner.
05:01I'm glad you've fallen on your feet.
05:03I had no idea you'd be here.
05:06We haven't seen you in weeks.
05:07How are you?
05:08Look.
05:09I haven't got long.
05:10What do you want?
05:13Oh, Jack.
05:15This is silly.
05:17We miss you.
05:18We both hoped you'd found a safe birth in Archangel Lane.
05:22A home.
05:23Book and me.
05:25Well, our arrangement is unusual, I know, but as I said to you, when we first met...
05:29Love is where it falls.
05:30Hmm.
05:32And how does my father fit into all of that?
05:36Yeah.
05:37One of Mr. Book's little dalliances, was he?
05:39Well, Book needs to talk to you about your father properly.
05:43Look, our marriage protects us both.
05:45Don't we have the right to be happy?
05:47Happy?
05:48Well, gallivanting off into the night.
05:50In with God knows who and you.
05:53Is that the latest, is it?
05:55A fellow with a moustache?
05:57He's Captain Orr. I knew him before the war.
05:59Oh. Dreamboat of the officer's mess, was he?
06:01Hmm. Something like that.
06:03Listening slightly now, though, eh?
06:05Scotty!
06:07You don't half pick'em.
06:10Mrs. Pug.
06:12Well, we better not keep him waiting.
06:15Excuse me.
06:23Oh, come to my room and help me dry off.
06:28I'm wet, woman.
06:30Give me the damp cloth.
06:31Come on.
06:32Get your ruddy hands off me.
06:34I won't have it.
06:35For shame.
06:37Oh, dear, sir.
06:38Oh, you've had a right mess up.
06:40Who's this?
06:40Wet trousers are against the dress code, you know?
06:43Is the Walsingham.
06:44So, why don't you go back to your room,
06:46take the wet pants off and have a little lay down?
06:48I have never been so insulted.
06:50I'm sure you have been.
06:52A fellow like you.
06:53Ah, Victor Orr.
06:54My old friend.
06:55I can't leave you alone for five minutes, can I?
06:58That a girl can't take a joke.
07:00Sit down.
07:01Can we have a couple of those?
07:03What do you call them?
07:04Four serum sours.
07:06For the two ladies.
07:07For their royal highnesses, you mean?
07:10These are on me, ladies.
07:12And may I say, you are looking superbly Balkan tonight.
07:16I salute the house of Scutari.
07:20Whichever commissar lives in it now.
07:22Take a good look, Trotty.
07:24That's what happens to you when you get dethroned by the Reds.
07:27Oh!
07:28Oh, dear.
07:30Allow me.
07:32So embarrassing.
07:33I do apologise.
07:34Not at all.
07:35Not at all.
07:36Not at all.
07:36Look after the pennies.
07:37And the pounds will look after themselves, what?
07:40Ha ha ha.
07:47I, uh, had a bit of luck on the horses.
07:52You, uh...
07:53You know Ascot?
07:54Very well, sir.
07:56How is the going?
07:58Oh, well.
08:00Good to firm.
08:02After this, shall we...
08:06Normally my favourite ellipsis,
08:08but I just think we should call it a night now, Victor.
08:11Oh, Trotty.
08:13You're no fun anymore.
08:15It's amazing how different things can look
08:17without the benefit of the blackout.
08:21Here's to Joe Stalin's next stroke.
08:23Tinkety-tongue.
08:57Tinkety-tongue.
10:00This is Chinese.
10:03Oh.
10:04And this is a button.
10:09It's a very nice button.
10:12Nora, have you been taking shillings from this tin?
10:14No.
10:16Remind me, what's the price of a green penguin crime novel?
10:22A shilling.
10:23Ah, that's better.
10:36Ah, success.
11:02Oh, it's you.
11:06You ready to commit on her for Amos?
11:07No, Sergeant.
11:08She was just, um, browsing.
11:11I hate to seem inquisitive, but why are you here?
11:13There's a chap being killed at the walls in them.
11:15Poisoned.
11:16Dead in a pile of pound notes on the floor of the river bar.
11:19Oh, that's just our sort of thing.
11:21Don't get too excited.
11:22The inspector wants a book.
11:23A G-book.
11:24That's quiet.
11:25There's some foreign royalty involved, it seems.
11:29He says, uh, do you have anything on the Balkan rules of revenge?
11:34Specifically, the canon of Scutari.
11:38How too, too ridiculously obscure.
11:40Do you have it?
11:41Almost certainly.
11:42Mm.
11:43And, uh, 504, he says.
11:46504.
11:47Room with a view?
11:48Well, it's all right for some, I suppose.
11:50Mrs. Book's already checked in.
11:52Why?
11:53Oh, uh, she's one of the suspects.
11:58Trouble in paradise, he says so.
12:28Oh, ho, what a beautiful place.
12:31Beauty.
12:31Yes.
12:32Might be one of those clues.
12:34We like those.
12:36Do you mind?
12:37Yes.
12:40Do people really say, what's your poison when they're at the bar?
12:44No idea.
12:45I don't get out much.
12:46What do you mean?
12:47Look, we're at the Walsingham.
12:49So's he.
12:51Oh, yeah.
12:52Let's, uh, let's get him somewhere more private.
12:54Yep.
13:09Not the main entrance, please, Inspector.
13:11I'm sorry we can't be more discreet.
13:13May I suggest the service corridor?
13:15Oh, yes.
13:16Yes.
13:16Thank you, Mr. Kind.
13:18Uh, nothing to stop by reopening the bar tomorrow, I think.
13:49Good evening, sir.
13:50Evening.
13:50You have a reservation?
13:52Uh, no, my wife.
13:54Your wife?
13:55Mrs. Book.
13:56Have you seen her?
13:57I'm afraid she may be distressed.
13:59No book.
14:00Oh.
14:00504, ready?
14:02Uh, no, I'll keep this one.
14:04What's happened, darling?
14:05What's this about a corpse?
14:07Why have I been scouring my stacks?
14:09It looks like a Vulcan blood feud.
14:10Oh.
14:11I'm not proud of myself.
14:14There was champagne.
14:15A day at the races, riddle me re in the 2.30.
14:18Cocktails.
14:19More cocktails than men.
14:22Trotty.
14:23We live our own lives.
14:24That was always the deal.
14:26Self-flagellation is never helpful.
14:28Not nearly as much fun as someone doing it to you.
14:31Who was he?
14:32Victor.
14:33Or.
14:35Or.
14:36With two R's.
14:37Naval captain, married, had met him before.
14:39In an air raid, 41.
14:42He, uh, made a pass at me in...
14:45In...
14:45Where?
14:46Please don't make me say the F word.
14:49Foils.
14:50Yes.
14:51Oh, Trotty.
14:52I just fancied a good time.
14:55Well, there's nothing wrong with that.
14:56He turned out to be the most awful bore.
14:58When is he now?
14:59In the morgue.
15:01Oh.
15:01One last night on the tiles.
15:04And there's something else.
15:05Book.
15:06Thank God you're here.
15:08You ready?
15:08For what?
15:09To interview royalty.
15:11It's a little irregular, isn't it?
15:12I don't care.
15:13They terrify me.
15:14I'm not going in there alone.
15:16Haven't you taken their fingerprints?
15:17I've not got Morris to do that.
15:19I may be a coward, but I'm not a fool.
15:21I have our primary text.
15:23The Canoon of Scutari.
15:25Oh, no, no, no.
15:26Looks expensive.
15:27Will it pay for our suite, Inspector?
15:29Oh, the late Captain had taken care of that, Mrs. Book.
15:33You're in the room next to the princesses.
15:35Oh, what are they like?
15:35Oh, they're glamorous in a sort of disappointed and stateless kind of way.
15:40Perhaps it's time I kept a closer eye on them.
15:43And an ear, too.
15:44I shall use one of those little glasses they keep by the sink.
15:57So, will this help us find who'd done it?
16:00It's a book of customary laws for remote mountain communities without a magistrate or justice.
16:05The village elders consult the text and then tell you how much reiki to provide for your daughter's wedding,
16:10what to do if your bees escape and build a nest on your labor's land, that sort of thing.
16:15And who you're allowed to kill if somebody kills your cousin.
16:25Well, what language did you think it was going to be in?
16:27Well, we have three native speakers on the premises, but they're all suspects.
16:31Who's the third?
16:32Oh, he's a rather good-looking cocktail waiter.
16:34Well, don't fret too much.
16:36The dutiful Teutonic scholar did publish a translation of it in the German.
16:40Oh, well, you certainly speak the German.
16:42In his sleep sometimes.
16:43So, where is this translation?
16:45Nora's looking for it now.
16:47It must be somewhere in the law section or social science or etiquette or propping open the door.
16:53You said there was something else?
16:55Yes.
16:55These princesses have been given gainful employment to one of the capitals dispossessed.
17:01Oh, yes.
17:03I know.
17:10And there he is.
17:14I'll turn down the bedspread.
17:16Sergeant Morris will be along soon to take a statement.
17:19Yes, of course.
17:20I'd be grateful, Mrs. Book, if you didn't leave the hotel.
17:23It's perfectly all right, Inspector.
17:25You have to do your duty.
17:34I'm here to see their royal highnesses.
17:43And then.
17:46Oh, dog.
17:48Where is it?
17:50Green.
17:51Straight-grained.
17:53Morocco-bound folio.
17:56With a lot of academic monographs bound in sight.
17:58Slightly foxed according to the catalogue.
18:04Y'all no help.
18:18They're coming, they're scutari.
18:23What would I do without you?
18:55Time for a little chat, Mrs Book.
19:12Poof.
19:14I beg your pardon?
19:16I apologize for it.
19:19That we have sunk so low.
19:22Remember the great banqueting table, Ruhia, hmm?
19:25Chairs made with bridge.
19:27As silvery as the snow on the mountaintops.
19:31Upholstered with dumb masks or so.
19:33We've been in more awkward situations than this, haven't we, Inspector?
19:37That we have book.
19:38So, which is the policeman?
19:39You or this book?
19:42Well, he's taking notes for me.
19:44Helping with the...
19:45Pitman's shorthand.
19:46So useful.
19:47Tall and red-headed.
19:49Like the poppies of our homeland.
19:53I realize that this will be very difficult for you, your Royal Highnesses.
19:58But if there's any detail you can recall, however small, it may help us discover who killed Captain Orr.
20:04That is easy.
20:06I killed him.
20:07So it's...
20:08He did what?
20:10It is true.
20:11I switched the glasses.
20:12He drank the poison.
20:14Meant for one of us.
20:15We have a routine, my sister and I, to cause a distraction.
20:19I salute the house of Scutari.
20:22Whichever Commissar lives in it now.
20:24Take a good look, Trotty.
20:26That's what happens to you if you get dethroned by the Reds.
20:28Oh!
20:30Oh!
20:30Oh dear.
20:31It's so embarrassing.
20:32I do apologize.
20:33Not at all.
20:34Not at all.
20:35Look after the pennies, and the pounds will look after themselves.
20:38What?
20:40It is a habit.
20:41A necessary precaution.
20:43Like this.
20:46This was the third attempt on our lives since we left New York.
20:50There was a steward on the Berengaria.
20:52Can I turn over your room, Madame?
20:55So transparent.
20:56And that Salvation Army woman outside the Opera.
20:59Shaking her tin box.
21:01She denied everything, of course.
21:03Who do you think is trying to kill you?
21:05The Communists, of course.
21:06Opera?
21:08But they already have your palaces, your estates.
21:11Our summer house on the Adriatic.
21:13There is a lake there.
21:15When the rising sun touches it, it is like the blush.
21:19In the spring, our country was proclaimed a people's republic.
21:22They want...
21:23What's the expression?
21:25A big finish.
21:28Hence the bodyguard.
21:30And how are you finding him?
21:32As he failed to prevent an attempt on our lives,
21:35I would say he has not covered himself in glory.
21:38Don't the Communists also have your other sister?
21:42We do not speak of her.
21:43Senille.
21:44Yes, the youngest.
21:45She renounced her title.
21:46We do not speak of her.
21:47Red scum.
21:49She betrayed her birth, right?
21:51Her country.
21:52Her family.
21:55Take it.
21:59Of course, if this does turn out to be the case, then your switching of the drinks will not be
22:04without consequence.
22:05We are used to being pilloried.
22:07We will take whatever comes to us.
22:09Right.
22:11Now then, in your statement, you said something about this murder being written about in the Canoon of Scutari.
22:17What does that mean?
22:18It means that a killing like this follows certain customary principles.
22:23It means the first thing you must do is arrest that cocktail waiter.
22:27Ismail Ghazili.
22:28Ghazili.
22:29Ghazili.
22:30Ghazili.
22:31Ghazili.
22:32Why?
22:32He is from the mountains.
22:34These people know the rules of revenge.
22:36They are obsessed with them.
22:37You must arrest him.
22:38And you must bring in any others on the staff.
22:41Of a mountain man?
22:44Yes.
22:48Well, thank you so much.
22:50This has been most helpful.
22:52So you will do as we say?
22:53No, I will not.
22:55Why?
22:56Because, Princess, I am not your subject.
22:58And in this country, a man is innocent until proven guilty.
23:02Whatever altitude he was born at.
23:11Well, sometimes, Inspector, you make me proud to be from the gutter.
23:17I never really thought of myself as a Republican.
23:20Well, it's the war book.
23:21Change us all.
23:23I never really thought of myself as a Jew.
23:26You ever come here during the Blitz?
23:29I had to let you in if there was a radon, even without a tie.
23:33We used to come down to the lower bar.
23:35It's known as the fruit cellar.
23:38That was quite the mixed grill.
23:40I had to let you in.
23:42No.
24:12You did nothing.
24:13You're supposed to be my boyfriend.
24:15And you did nothing.
24:16E.T., what do you expect me to do?
24:18Nothing.
24:23Was he the one from this morning?
24:24Yeah.
24:26Came at me in a silk dressing gown with everything pointed north.
24:30His name is Captain Victor Orr.
24:32Not anymore.
24:34They already gave me a warning.
24:36What?
24:36Yeah, apparently shouting at lecherous customers isn't the Walsingham way.
24:43I'll speak to Mr. Kind.
24:44It was Mr. Kind who gave me the warning.
24:46One more black mark on him out of my arse.
24:49I hate this place.
24:51You know, I was doing okay here.
24:55At least I thought I was.
24:58What's the bloody point?
25:00Yeah, I'm sorry.
25:03You know, my dad was right about you, Ismael.
25:06And I should have listened to him.
25:08Leave me alone.
25:09What?
25:14Questions.
25:38Careful, officer. My friend borrows his jazz mags from the maitre d'.
25:42You can't shock me, sir.
25:43I've been to the windmill theatre in the night.
25:45And seen those gents with the newspapers on their laps.
25:48And brought a few into the station.
26:02You've been jazzing with this one, sir.
26:04No, no, that lot put me right off.
26:06Oh, you hate your royal family, do you?
26:07They're not my royal family.
26:08They've been nobody royal family since 1940.
26:11Ever since they left us with that chap.
26:13Hey, Marco, what was his name?
26:15What's Salini, mate?
26:16I knew you'd know, mate.
26:19Right-o, sir.
26:21Confiscating this is evidence.
26:22You enjoy this, don't you?
26:24It just works, sir.
26:26Keep your temper, eh?
26:30Well, I suppose I usually take all that aggression out on the ice cubes.
26:56Look for Mr. Book.
26:58Who?
26:58No.
26:59It's the Canoon of Scutari.
27:03It's Albania.
27:12Mrs. Book's out of the picture.
27:14You can't be certain of that, sir.
27:16I've read a statement, and I'm satisfied it's nothing to do with her.
27:19But, sir...
27:19I'm satisfied, Maurice.
27:22Clear.
27:29So, you think it was one of us?
27:31I don't think anything yet.
27:34Signor Barberini?
27:36Okay, well, I've narrowed it down to two.
27:39A royal member of the House of Scutari.
27:41Nafia or Ruhia?
27:42Right-o.
27:43Method?
27:44Poison.
27:45Something slipped into the cocktail glass after he tried it on with Edie Rattle.
27:50That's the chambermaid, yes?
27:51So, where was she when Captain Orr coughed his last?
27:54Gone already.
27:55Motive?
27:56You think of any reason why anyone would want to kill Captain Victor Orr?
28:00Are you kidding?
28:01That captain was always here with different women.
28:03Usually in the same room.
28:05504.
28:07Really?
28:08Mm-hmm.
28:09City view.
28:09Noise does bed springs.
28:11Duchess raid for favourite patrons.
28:13And that captain has been coming here for years.
28:16Usually once a week.
28:17Without squeak.
28:18You're very well informed.
28:19No secrets at the Walsingham, sir.
28:21We see all the dirty there.
28:23Because we have to clean it.
28:25Some might say, Mr. Gazeeli, that it's the duty of a grand hotel
28:30to make sure that the private life of a guest remains private.
28:32As some might say, Inspector, that in a grand hotel
28:35people are usually at it like cod in a bucket.
28:38So it's a crime of passion then?
28:40No.
28:42I reckon the captain was something in intelligence.
28:45During the war.
28:47How do you know that?
28:48They're a type.
28:50Friendly, but tell you nothing.
28:53With a drink, they'll always have what the other person's having.
28:58So why would the princesses want to kill a British spy?
29:01Because British intelligence handed over Scutari to the Communist partisans.
29:05And the captain recognised the princesses.
29:13Who are they?
29:14Should I know them?
29:17Balkans.
29:18Same to you.
29:20Ooh.
29:22Nafia and Ruhia.
29:26Princesses of the royal house of Scutari.
29:28Proposed by the communists and now drifting around the world like Flotsam.
29:35Very glamorous, Flotsam.
29:37Wasn't there a scandal?
29:39They did a flit and the bullion from the National Bank somehow found its way into their hatboxes.
29:46Something of the sort.
29:49And?
29:51They're drifting our way.
29:53Or your way, to be precise.
29:56Oh, I see.
29:57In the market for a set of dictionaries, are they?
29:59They're staying at the Walsingham.
30:01Just down the road from you.
30:03And, er, there have been letters.
30:08Threats.
30:09Vicious ones.
30:10You should speak to the post office then.
30:14We'd be ever so grateful if you just...
30:19kept an eye on them.
30:22I told you.
30:25You're just a bookseller.
30:27And I told...
30:30I reminded you...
30:33that we helped find young Jack.
30:36It wasn't easy at all.
30:52It wasn't easy.
30:58Oh.
30:59It's you.
31:01It's me.
31:03Ta for... you know.
31:05Ah, don't mention it.
31:10So, does that happen a lot then, does it?
31:14Comes with a job, doesn't it?
31:16Can I do you now, sir?
31:18Hmm.
31:21I wouldn't have killed him for it, though.
31:24Somebody did.
31:25Yeah.
31:27So...
31:29Which side are you on?
31:31Sorry?
31:32Which side are you on?
31:35Well, what are the options?
31:37Well...
31:37There's the management in this hotel,
31:40who...
31:40treat their staff like muck,
31:42and...
31:43give a girl a mouthful,
31:44just for standing up for herself.
31:47Right.
31:48Then there's the workers.
31:49Okay, well...
31:51the workers then.
31:52Nice to hear your expression of solidarity, brother.
31:55But it's...
31:56deeds not words that count.
31:58Don't you think?
32:00Right.
32:01So why don't you go down there,
32:02to that taxi stand?
32:04Get me a nice cup of Bovril.
32:07I can't.
32:09Maybe later.
32:11I just gotta get back.
32:12To their royal bloody highnesses.
32:15Afraid so.
32:18How does it feel?
32:20Working for those parasites?
32:23Is that what they are?
32:24Well, what would you call them?
32:29Sad.
32:31I suppose.
32:33Yeah...
32:34A bit sad.
32:37Well...
32:38Speaking for myself...
32:40I'd line them up.
32:42Shoot the boogers.
33:16I could say a proper hello to you now, Edmund Kind.
33:20Good evening.
33:21More than kind, I used to say.
33:24Well, that's too kind.
33:26Hm.
33:26They closed it, you know.
33:28The lower bar.
33:29The fruit cellar.
33:30Oh.
33:31What a shame.
33:32Yes, for redecoration.
33:34Though when the work will actually start,
33:36I don't know.
33:37Seems they prefer it mothballed, the management.
33:39You mean it's all still there?
33:40The mural and everything?
33:42Oh, yes.
33:43Well, we could take a look.
33:45If you'd like.
33:47I should really be getting back upstairs.
33:50Of course.
33:54I suppose, uh...
33:56A little peep wouldn't hurt.
34:05Well, the question is...
34:08How the lights work?
34:09I don't remember there being any.
34:11You never turned them off?
34:12Black eyed, I suppose.
34:14No, no, they were just terribly unfluttering.
34:17Yes, you're right.
34:19Let's turn them off.
34:20Just a soup song.
34:26These walls could talk.
34:41Kim Strang is dead.
34:43Did you hear?
34:44Kim Strang.
34:46He used to keep his Max Factor in a gas mask box.
34:50Well, he'd been in Egypt, hadn't he?
34:53Had to keep that tan up.
34:55What happened to him?
34:56He walked into the sea at shore, I'm sorry to say.
35:00Somebody had his letters.
35:02Dreadful, really.
35:05Dreadful.
35:06And you're very married, I see.
35:09Very, very married.
35:10Congratulations.
35:12And thanks for your help with the other matter.
35:14Not at all.
35:15What does Jack know?
35:17That my wife and I have an arrangement, as I knew his late father.
35:22Nothing more?
35:22He found that difficult enough to take, ran out on us that very night.
35:27Floated here?
35:27Where he is gainfully employed, thanks to you.
35:31And able to keep an eye on the other bodies floating around, the regal scutari ones.
35:36Why do you need to keep an eye on those?
35:38It's possible they were the intended victims.
35:40Not the captain.
35:42It's a working hypothesis.
35:44Are you with the police now, Gabriel?
35:46You always were a dark horse.
35:48It makes up a substantial part of my charm.
35:51Oh, Christ, isn't that dangerous? I mean, one false step.
35:55I am all too well aware of that, Edmund.
35:57Although I do have a special letter from Churchill.
36:02Still, you probably shouldn't be found in a dimly lit basement bar with...
36:06With a terribly handsome old friend?
36:08No, perhaps not.
36:12Top of the grid.
36:14The wall cinema isn't connected to the grid.
36:15It has its own oil-powered generators.
36:18They bring it in by the barrel. Everything depends on it, even the plumbing.
36:22And what's a grand hotel without power and hot-running water?
36:26Well, I suppose it's just a big building full of people who are rather cold and rather hungry.
36:31And very, very rich.
36:35I should get back.
36:40Me too.
37:08No big surprises on the poison front, Inspector. The deadly glass contains boring old hydrochloric acid.
37:14Oh, it can't all be virtue I say.
37:17Virtue I see.
37:19The thumbprint. Enough for an arrest.
37:22Enough for a hanging, maybe.
37:33Okay, thank you. Bye.
37:36Where's Edie Randall?
37:38Oh, um, I'll check.
37:42Very good, eh?
37:54Did the blessed sergeant get everything required from you, dear?
37:58Well, I took him through it in exhausting detail.
38:02Where did you get to?
38:03I mean, talking to the staff.
38:05Oh, yes. Very nice of you.
38:07The ones who served you cocktails tonight.
38:09Well, it was really only the younger one.
38:11Guzzili.
38:12If you say so.
38:13Apparently, he poured a whole round down the sink, ice, some fruit and all.
38:18Could he have tampered with the second round?
38:20Yes.
38:21Nobody was looking because of the brouhaha.
38:24Brouhaha.
38:25Yes, one of the princesses dropped her reticule.
38:28There was loose change all over the floor.
38:30Yes, I've heard about that.
38:31And after the brouhaha?
38:32Well, I dragged Victor back to the bar.
38:34He made a toast.
38:36And then there was the furore.
38:38A brouhaha and then a furore?
38:40It was very confusing.
38:42Oh, and there was a woman.
38:47A woman?
38:47I've just remembered. She handed me a cloth.
38:51Like St. Veronica on the road to Calvary.
38:53To mop up Victor Orr's trousers.
38:55There was something about the look she gave me.
39:01Poor Victor.
39:03People were recoiling in pure horror.
39:05It was burning his neck out, book.
39:06You could hear it crackle.
39:12I'm sorry you had a beastly time.
39:21I just wanted to get Stinker and wake up somewhere with clean sheets and three egg omelets.
39:26I wanted something.
39:29So I wanted him.
39:34I do love you, Mrs. Book.
39:38Ditto.
39:41Book.
39:42Yes.
39:46We never really talk.
39:47At all.
39:49But the arrangement.
39:51What's to talk about?
39:53Well, to see that all's well, that we're both okay.
39:57All is well.
39:58Look, you left a light on for me.
40:00Oh.
40:05I could be making love in this.
40:09In the dark.
40:11Has anyone told Victor Orr's wife?
40:15It's not like she was expecting him to come home.
40:18Do you know who she is?
40:19I don't really know who he was.
40:22Still.
40:25I suppose he did get us a knight here.
40:28Isn't it marvelous?
40:29Hmm.
40:31No clouds to light.
40:33Nowhere for the stars to hide.
40:36We never really had a proper honeymoon, did we?
40:39Bit of a diary clash.
40:40The Luftwaffe had their hearts set on Eastbourne, too.
40:43The beach was very pebbly, anyway.
40:45And covered in barbed wire.
40:47Does it worry you, though?
40:49Disappoint you?
40:51What?
40:52The absence of landmarks, declarations, grand gestures.
40:58Oh, no, look.
41:01In fact, I'm gonna make one now.
41:03Who is?
41:05Let's order a bloody huge bottle of champagne.
41:29I've got our papers.
41:31Stamped and signed.
41:32Tickets, too.
41:33I can't do anything discreetly, my love.
41:38Now, five minutes till it leaves.
41:40Platform six.
41:41We're gonna be in Paris for breakfast.
41:44There are no Nazis in Paris,
41:45but there are croissants,
41:47so it's all gonna be fine.
41:51I can't come with your book.
41:55For the same reason that you must leave.
42:00It's so full here.
42:01Can I sit myself here?
42:03Of course.
42:19Oh, and I must return this to you, my...
42:26My dear fellow.
42:31I love a good book.
42:35A beautiful book.
42:39And how easy it is to picture myself
42:43on some winter evening
42:46in the country
42:48lying with this particular book.
42:53It moves me so much.
42:59But...
43:00But I'm afraid I cannot keep it.
43:04I know it's frailties.
43:08And some books get burned, you know.
43:14And I should not like to be responsible
43:16for the loss of this one.
43:20Because it is so dear to me
43:23that I know it by heart.
43:43Henceforth,
43:44wherever thou may strong,
43:48my blessing,
43:50like a line of light.
43:54It's on the waters,
43:55day and night.
43:58And like a beacon guards the home.
44:02This is the last passage
44:04we're going to pass on to Paris
44:06of life next.
44:23This is the first time.
44:23This is before I am alone.
44:28You can see my eyes.
44:28You will see you from...
44:38I will see you.
44:39You can see you by going,
44:39but as I am right now.

49:45Let me tell the story of an old lady fair
49:49Standing sentinel across the years
49:52In the city's bonny square
49:55Let me tell the story of the journey down to hell
49:59From the dear, dilapidated Walsingham Hotel
50:17Some came to stay, to rest, to play
50:20Some came to labour every day
50:23Some came to sound the passing bell
50:27Of the dear old Walsingham Hotel
50:44But who killed Captain Victor or princess, waiter, maid or more
50:50Who came to sound the final knell
50:54For the dear old Walsingham Hotel
51:07Well then
51:11That's that
51:16What was that?
51:18Edith! Edith!
51:20Are you okay?
51:27I'm an idiot
51:28I'm an idiot
51:29One more step and I'll...
51:38I'm an idiot
51:39I'm an idiot
51:40I'm an idiot
51:41I'm an idiot
51:42Bye bye
51:47Bye bye
51:53I'm an idiot
51:54Bye bye
51:54She is a dick
51:56Does me make him like another slut?
51:57Bye bye
51:59Bye bye
52:00Bye bye
52:00You can ask me
