00:00:02You
00:00:30Welcome to Bonny Scotland. It is the year of our Lord, 1828.
00:00:36And this is where I work. The Market Square in Edinburgh, our capital city.
00:00:43They're calling this the Scottish Enlightenment.
00:00:48Enlightenment? You could have fooled me. I mean, look at the state of them.
00:00:54The only people around here looking to be enlightened are the medical students.
00:00:58They come to study at the feet of our famous doctors.
00:01:02Edinburgh is the medical capital of the world.
00:01:05Get yourselves an education there, lads.
00:01:08On one side of the city, you have Barclays School of Anatomy.
00:01:12And that's run by the esteemed surgeon, Dr. Robert Knox.
00:01:17Now, some say that he's the finest surgeon in all Scotland.
00:01:21All I can say about Dr. Knox is that he dresses well.
00:01:25Quite the dandy.
00:01:27Ah, there's nothing like starting off a new term with a fresh corpse, is there, Patterson?
00:01:33Indeed, sir.
00:01:34Today, I think I shall commence by removing the top of the cranium.
00:01:39You'll certainly give the freshmen something to write home about.
00:01:41And on the other side of the city...
00:01:45...you've got Scotland's Royal College of Surgeons.
00:01:48And that's run by Professor Alexander Munro.
00:01:52He's... how do you put it?
00:01:55Old school.
00:02:09That... would be an artery.
00:02:15Anyway... you'll have to excuse me for a wee moment, ladies and gentlemen.
00:02:20It's showtime.
00:02:41Maggie O'Donnell of the West Port, also known as Mad Maggie,
00:02:46you are convicted of the heinous crimes of thievery,
00:02:51prostitution, public drunkenness, and a bad attitude.
00:02:56Do you have anything to say before you're consigned to hell?
00:03:01Aye! Only my hobbits are hot down there, as they say it is!
00:03:20You see, you can only teach anatomy by cutting up people's bodies.
00:03:24And the law of the land says you can only cut up bodies of people like Mad Maggie here,
00:03:28the recently deceased.
00:03:30So we sell them to the highest bidder.
00:03:40But now, Professor Munro, the swine, has used his influence to pass a new city bylaw.
00:03:56Who's the body, Angus?
00:04:00But we had an arrangement.
00:04:01Professor Munro at the Royal College gets all the bodies down.
00:04:05Oh, my God.
00:04:08Now, when the demand for a certain commodity exceeds supply,
00:04:12it creates a business opportunity.
00:04:14Just waiting for the right kind of clever entrepreneurs to step in.
00:04:20Ladies and gentlemen, gather round, gather round!
00:04:23My name is William Burke.
00:04:25Like many of you, my colleague Mr Hare and I came to this land looking for work.
00:04:29We've dug canals, we've built roads, we've started a new life.
00:04:33But none of us has forgotten that emerald isle from which we came.
00:04:37That mystical land where a man...
00:04:39Get to the bloody point, will I?
00:04:40Right, sorry.
00:04:41In the county of Donegal, on the highest, greenest slopes,
00:04:45there grows a certain moss which any educated person will tell you
00:04:48cures all known afflictions.
00:04:51The smallest cut, ladies and gentlemen, can let in poisons from the earth and the air.
00:04:56And before you know it, your very brain starts to boil.
00:04:59But the touch of the moss from the hills of Donegal, ladies and gentlemen,
00:05:03and it's gone in a flash.
00:05:06A boil appears! You paid no mind!
00:05:09But suddenly there's a second and a third!
00:05:12And before you know it, the sufferings of Job are upon you!
00:05:16A work!
00:05:18Starts off small, doesn't it?
00:05:19But without a touch of the moss, it can grow as big as your head!
00:05:24This is never moss.
00:05:25This...
00:05:27is cheese mould.
00:05:29They're a paracufferous man!
00:05:31You're a weak bastard!
00:05:35They're the constable!
00:05:48They're the constable!
00:06:04gentlemen!
00:06:06The Lord created the heavens and the earth, but His greatest work, His most perfect creation, is man.
00:06:16The study of human anatomy, therefore, is nothing less than a direct insight into the mind of God.
00:06:35Gentlemen, I give you the human form in all its glory.
00:06:43Jesus Christ!
00:06:45I have a very, very good explanation, sir.
00:06:55Well, Patterson, let's hear this very, very good explanation.
00:07:09Not content with butchering his own patients, Monroe is now taken to using political influence to hinder the advancement of
00:07:15medical science.
00:07:17Beggars can't be choosers, sir. I had to take the only one that Resurrectionist McTavish had left.
00:07:21That's the third rotter I've had from McTavish and his gang of grave robbers in the last three weeks. I
00:07:26can't go on like this.
00:07:27Is there anything I can do, Doctor?
00:07:29You could start praying, Patterson, for the one thing that could save us.
00:07:36And what's that, sir?
00:07:37An enormous and awful calamity right here in Edinburgh. An accident or a natural disaster.
00:07:45Something which generates the large numbers of cadavers I need for my work.
00:07:50Wouldn't that be nice, sir?
00:07:52Yes, Patterson.
00:07:54It would be nice.
00:07:57You told your wife you was going to get a job, you lied.
00:08:00An economy with the truth, Willie, isn't the same as a flat-out lie.
00:08:04And you think Lucky's going to grasp that distinction?
00:08:07She's not exactly a forgiving woman.
00:08:08I'll not hear a bad word said against her.
00:08:10All right.
00:08:12I want to grant you she's had her problems with the bottle, but she's fighting her demons.
00:08:18Besides, she's bad to be in high spirits.
00:08:20It's rent day for O'Donnell.
00:08:22Ah!
00:08:22Ah, you see?
00:08:24Within every cloud, there's a silver lining.
00:08:30Where's the money yours, Mr. Hare?
00:08:44I know this looks bad, love, but there's a good explanation.
00:08:48You see, Willie here came up with this fantastic new product.
00:08:52Donegal Moss.
00:08:53It started off a roaring success.
00:08:55Aye, for a while, it looks as though all our troubles were over.
00:09:01Jesus, what's that smell?
00:09:04It was an accident.
00:09:05You're a lazy good-for-nothing, William Hare.
00:09:09We're flat-out broke.
00:09:12What about old Donald's rent money?
00:09:14Fuck me!
00:09:18He's dead.
00:09:21Dead.
00:09:23What do you mean, dead?
00:09:24I mean, deceased. He stopped living and died.
00:09:27So he didn't pay his rent, then?
00:09:31Are you telling us old Donald is dead?
00:09:33As a doornail.
00:09:35So my suggestion is that you sort yourselves out and get rid of the body before it starts to stink
00:09:40up the place more than you two.
00:09:43How are we supposed to do that?
00:09:45Use your imagination, William.
00:09:47It's about all you're good for these days.
00:09:55That's not working.
00:09:59Right and push his right leg down.
00:10:00No, it won't go!
00:10:02Gonna have to break his back.
00:10:04What?
00:10:04Well, it's either that or we chop his legs off.
00:10:09I know building's sight in the new town. We can dump them there, no problem at all.
00:10:12You don't know about this, William.
00:10:14A piece of cake.
00:10:15It's only another mile or so.
00:10:17Only another mile or so!
00:10:21Let's stop over there, will you?
00:10:22This is thirsty work.
00:10:26Let's go.
00:10:31Right, get it up.
00:10:39Watch your language, you fucking son of a bitch bastard!
00:10:48Hi, James.
00:10:49Are you all right?
00:10:57What are we gonna do, William?
00:10:59There's no more canals to dig.
00:11:00Don't you worry, Willie. I have got all kinds of ideas.
00:11:04Hey, but no money to speak of. No plan.
00:11:09Just enough money for one last round.
00:11:12I'll drink to that.
00:11:19Couple of large ones, Irene.
00:11:22How's business?
00:11:24Never better, Fergus.
00:11:29What about you, eh?
00:11:31Diversifying is what we're doing.
00:11:34Mr. McTavish has moved into gambling, opium distribution, and pimping whores.
00:11:41Yes.
00:11:45Look, I'm a legitimate.
00:11:49So no more taking up graves, then?
00:11:51It's no worth the bother anymore.
00:11:54We, Tam McClintock, and his militia, they've declared a war on Grave Orbury.
00:11:59They're patrolling the graveyards every night.
00:12:02It's a shame, really.
00:12:04We used to sell to Dr. Knox at three pounds a cadaver.
00:12:09And these days, he'd be happy to pay double.
00:12:14But I thought life round here was supposed to be cheap.
00:12:17It is.
00:12:21But the price rockets once you're dead.
00:12:37Welly.
00:12:42So, this doctor is gonna give us money to cut old Donald up.
00:12:45Old Donald is in heaven.
00:12:47These are just his mortal remains.
00:12:49You seem to have given us an awful lot of thought.
00:12:51When have I ever let you down?
00:12:53When have you ever let me die?
00:12:54Oh, come on now, Welly.
00:12:56No!
00:13:08There's a lot of concern here.
00:13:09That might just be telling me again.
00:13:10What if?
00:13:12Burn 멈 of your wrist.
00:13:31Holy shite!
00:13:43This is wrong.
00:13:44There's only one surgeon square in Edinburgh, will he?
00:13:47No, what we're doing is wrong.
00:13:49I'm sorry to disturb you, Doctor, but we have two gentlemen at the door to see you.
00:13:52They appear to have a herring barrel with them, sir.
00:13:54I have no taste for herring, Patterson. Send them away.
00:13:57I believe there's something else in a herring barrel for you, sir.
00:14:04I commend you both on account of his freshness.
00:14:07Thank you, Doctor.
00:14:08Why is he bent in half like that?
00:14:11This man obviously died in some kind of construction accident.
00:14:16That is exactly what happened. Isn't that exactly what happened, Mr. Burke?
00:14:19Aye, Mr. Herring, yeah, that's exactly what happened.
00:14:22Right. I'll give you three pounds.
00:14:25We was looking for six pounds, sir.
00:14:29I'm afraid I can go no higher than four pounds, ten shillings.
00:14:31Dr. Knox, sir, you yourself complimented us on account of its freshness, sir.
00:14:38Quite the salesman, aren't you, Mr. Hare?
00:14:41Could you make it five pounds, ten shillings?
00:14:44What with so much construction work going on in Edinburgh,
00:14:48if we were to stumble on any other unfortunates,
00:14:54would you be interested, Doctor?
00:14:58I'll give you five pounds for your efforts, gentlemen,
00:15:01and I'll pay you the same for any more unfortunates that you can deliver,
00:15:05except in the summer when we have a few problems keeping them fresh.
00:15:07I completely understand, Dr. Knox.
00:15:10All right, Patterson, prepare this gentleman for the lecture.
00:15:14What about his posture, sir?
00:15:17Uh, straighten him out. I'm sure he won't complain.
00:15:22Sir?
00:15:23Unbend him. These fellows will assist you and then show them out. Good night.
00:15:27All right, give me a hand with this.
00:15:44Here's to our new product.
00:15:51And where exactly are we going to find more?
00:15:53Oh, there's lots more product just waiting for us to dig it up.
00:16:26He's looking at me.
00:16:28I'm sure he knows what we're doing.
00:16:30Forget the damn dog, Willie.
00:16:32Just keep an eye out for the militia.
00:16:37You know, this is hallowed ground.
00:16:39Touch of frost is all.
00:16:49Look lively, man.
00:16:55There.
00:17:16Who goes there?
00:17:18Thick spinach.
00:17:22It's the militia.
00:17:28Listen to that, lad.
00:17:30They got guns.
00:17:33Oh, for pity's sake, private.
00:17:38Come on.
00:17:41Be careful.
00:17:47Either we give ourselves up and risk being transported, or we run for it and risk getting shot.
00:17:53As much as I like to travel, I think I'm going to go with the latter.
00:17:57On three.
00:17:58Right.
00:17:59One.
00:18:08Well shot, sir.
00:18:09Thank you, sergeant.
00:18:11Thank you, sergeant.
00:18:21I can't believe this.
00:18:24Six years in the Donegal militia, and I never got a scratch.
00:18:27And three hours is a grave robber, and I get shot in the arse.
00:18:30All right, Willie.
00:18:31Show me your wounds.
00:18:32All right.
00:18:32Just be careful.
00:18:36I think you've got a perfectly lovely arse.
00:18:43Evening, Mrs. McPhee.
00:18:48Is it bad?
00:18:49It's nothing but a scratch, you big baby.
00:18:52Well, it still hurts.
00:18:53Come on, Willie.
00:18:53Oh, who was that screaming in the graveyard like a wee girl?
00:18:57You!
00:19:08For the love of Lord Jesus, she's fallen off the wagon again.
00:19:17Oh, are you all right, love?
00:19:22Oh, it's God.
00:19:26He's punishing us.
00:19:27Oh, you know that's not true.
00:19:30First old Donald, and now Joseph.
00:19:33What's happened to Joseph?
00:19:35That's two reds.
00:19:37Just...
00:19:38God.
00:19:59Hello.
00:20:01Are you all right, Joseph?
00:20:05Do we live all right, you bleeding Irish bastards?
00:20:09Oh.
00:20:10Ah.
00:20:12You'll know me taking my coat.
00:20:15Oh.
00:20:16I remember.
00:20:18Who knows he was there, sir.
00:20:21He says, stand up, guards.
00:20:24Now, Maitland, now's your time.
00:20:28And over we go, fighting, fighting the frogs.
00:20:33I have to tell you about the time.
00:20:36Well, the time that I thought about the man, the wee man himself.
00:20:45Napoleon.
00:20:47Aye, what a treat.
00:20:50And that in the other hat.
00:21:00Oh, forgive me, Father.
00:21:04For I know not what I do.
00:21:07He shouldn't have to go like this.
00:21:11A hero should be laid to rest among his comrades
00:21:13in the corner of some distant foreign field
00:21:16on the battleground,
00:21:18surrounded by his fellow men-at-arms.
00:21:21Nor will I.
00:21:21It's far better this way.
00:21:23A man deserves to die in the comfort of his own bed,
00:21:26surrounded by his friends.
00:21:41A man's.
00:21:42No, no, no.
00:21:44He's not even here.
00:21:44He's not too close.
00:21:47A man's.
00:21:49What?
00:21:50What?
00:21:53You work hard.
00:21:54Oh!
00:21:57Let's all in.
00:21:57Because I think about him.
00:22:16Never again, William.
00:22:17Old Joseph was the last one for me.
00:22:18Well, talk about it later, will I?
00:22:20For now, just smile and try to look in for it.
00:22:48Excuse me, we're not coming in wearing those.
00:22:52But they are French.
00:22:53Exactly.
00:22:55So, sling your hook.
00:22:57Pardon?
00:22:57Slung your hook.
00:22:58Who?
00:22:59Your hook.
00:23:00Who?
00:23:00Your hook.
00:23:01Slung it.
00:23:04We're on the guest list.
00:23:06Name.
00:23:10William Wordsworth.
00:23:13Plus one.
00:23:16Welcome to Buck Oakley's, Mr. Wordsworth.
00:23:19And may I say, how much I admire your form of the Daffodils.
00:23:24Too kind.
00:23:25Very nice.
00:23:29No chance.
00:23:30No chance.
00:23:30Pencils.
00:23:30Good.
00:23:49What are you having?
00:23:49It's inconceivable that the height of culture on Offer in Edinburgh is this bloody dive.
00:23:56Which is why I'm proposing, and don't laugh at me, that we put on Macbeth.
00:24:05It's got everything.
00:24:07It's got everything.
00:24:08Sex, murder, magic, betrayal.
00:24:11I think it's a great idea.
00:24:13I think it's a great idea, Ginny.
00:24:13You do?
00:24:14I really do.
00:24:15There's just one problem.
00:24:18Wasn't Macbeth a king?
00:24:21Wouldn't I make him a man?
00:24:23I'm talking about the first all-female production of a Shakespeare play?
00:24:29It costs money to put on a play, Ginny.
00:24:32None of us want to go back on the game.
00:24:34Never.
00:24:35Nobody's going back on the game.
00:24:37All we need is for a wealthy and discerning patron to take the bait.
00:24:44What are you doing?
00:24:45That which hath made them drunk hath made me bawl them.
00:24:52Had I but died an hour before this chance, have you blessed the time.
00:24:59There's nothing to say.
00:25:00Someone's are a few too many.
00:25:02Who can be wise, amazed, temperate, furious, loyal and neutral in a moment?
00:25:11No, ma'am.
00:25:13The real explanation of our love has outrun the poison.
00:25:18Hallelujah!
00:25:20Hallelujah!
00:25:23Hallelujah!
00:25:24Hallelujah!
00:25:24Hallelujah!
00:25:28Have you not heard of William Bloody Shakespeare?
00:25:31Show some respect!
00:25:34Bullocks!
00:25:37Can I help you?
00:25:40Uh...
00:25:40Just...
00:25:41You're...
00:25:41Your speech there was...
00:25:42It was wonderful, madam.
00:25:52Doctor!
00:25:53Doctor!
00:25:54Doctor!
00:25:55You look like the proverbial cat that swallowed the canary, Dr. Munro.
00:26:00You must know what this is all about.
00:26:01I do, actually.
00:26:04But forgive me.
00:26:05I need to have a word with Dr. Knox.
00:26:07I'd be surprised if Knox would speak to you now that...
00:26:09Excuse me, Dr. Lister.
00:26:12And please do not misunderstand this, but...
00:26:17Your breath is appalling.
00:26:22Ah!
00:26:26Dr. Knox, how wonderful it is to see you.
00:26:31Yes, I'm sure it is.
00:26:32And your new students, are they enjoying your lectures?
00:26:36Not as much as I understand they're enjoying your wife, sir.
00:26:45Oh, I hate that man.
00:26:48Doctors, professors, gentlemen, please take your seats.
00:26:59Your attention, gentlemen.
00:27:02His Majesty will be in residence at Holyrood Palace in eight weeks' time.
00:27:06The King has decided that, in his wisdom,
00:27:09he will create a competition to further the progress of medical science.
00:27:14Accordingly, His Majesty has decided that, during his visit,
00:27:18he will listen to presentations from Scotland's leading physicians.
00:27:23Whomsoever he determines has made the greatest advances in the field of medicine
00:27:27will be awarded the Royal Seal and a handsome monetary reward.
00:27:34This honour will confer immeasurable economic and social status on Edinburgh,
00:27:40on Scotland, on the medical profession, and, of course, on its recipient.
00:27:45I thank you, and good night.
00:27:48Maude Harrington, I just...
00:27:51Yes, I know.
00:27:52I played Agnes in Moliere's School for Wives at the Garrick Theatre in London.
00:27:59And after that, times got tough and I branched out into physical theatre.
00:28:05Ah, like acrobatics.
00:28:06Sometimes.
00:28:07Then I became a dancer and a showgirl, and now I'm trying to produce my first play.
00:28:13Sounds very exciting.
00:28:14It is.
00:28:15Aye, I just need to put together a consortium of investors.
00:28:19Anyway, enough of that on me, let's talk more about you.
00:28:22What do you do for a living?
00:28:23Uh, I am in surgical supplies.
00:28:27Sorry to interrupt, Willi, but we should be heading home.
00:28:30Got an early start.
00:28:31It was lovely to meet you, Mr. Burke.
00:28:33Well, can I see you again?
00:28:34Oh, I'd like that.
00:28:35How about Friday night?
00:28:36I'll meet you here at seven.
00:28:38Goodnight, Miss. Come along, Willi.
00:28:39Goodnight.
00:28:40Goodnight.
00:28:40Goodnight.
00:28:41Goodnight.
00:28:46I'll now explain myself again.
00:28:49Mr. Wadsworth is already in at the club.
00:28:51That cannot be.
00:28:52I am he.
00:28:54Newly returned from my tour of the continent.
00:28:57And I am Samuel Coleridge.
00:28:59Aye.
00:28:59And I'm Robbie fucking Bones.
00:29:01Now piss off the both of us!
00:29:05Strange and peculiar gentleman.
00:29:08I never realized there was so much to know about the human foot.
00:29:12And Dr. Knox, will you be presenting to the committee?
00:29:16I will, my lord.
00:29:18And I believe I shall prevail in his majesty's competition.
00:29:22And how will you do that, Dr. Knox?
00:29:25I am creating a complete map of the human body, both inside and out.
00:29:31If such a thing were possible, it would constitute the greatest medical advance since Vesalius.
00:29:37It is also impossible.
00:29:39Such a map would be entirely useless unless it was 100% accurate.
00:29:44And no artist can guarantee that.
00:29:49No illustrator or painter, I agree.
00:29:51So how on earth do you propose to achieve it?
00:29:55You shall see, Professor, in the fullness of time.
00:29:59My lord.
00:30:01Come, Patterson.
00:30:23You are ready?
00:30:25Yes.
00:30:26Ready.
00:30:27Good.
00:30:28Excuse me, sir.
00:30:32Attention.
00:30:34Oh.
00:30:36Oh.
00:30:38Oh.
00:30:39Oh.
00:30:40Oh.
00:30:42Oh.
00:30:43Oh.
00:30:43Oh.
00:30:44Oh.
00:30:44Oh.
00:30:47Oh.
00:30:54Oh.
00:30:56Oh.
00:30:58Oh.
00:31:05Oh.
00:31:06Oh.
00:31:07Oh.
00:31:07Oh.
00:31:07Oh.
00:31:07Oh.
00:31:08Oh.
00:31:08Oh.
00:31:08Oh.
00:31:09Oh.
00:31:10Oh.
00:31:12Oh.
00:31:13Oh.
00:31:16That's it!
00:31:25That's it!
00:31:31Here.
00:31:34Auprès de ma blonde...
00:31:41Ah, merde!
00:31:42Qui est ma jolie blonde...
00:31:44Qui chante avec lui...
00:31:46Et qui est un petit peu...
00:31:48Mais je ne me vends pas...
00:31:49Je ne vends pas...
00:31:49Juste un petit peu...
00:31:53Je ne vends pas...
00:31:55Je ne vends pas...
00:31:56Un petit peu plus...
00:31:57Deux secondes plus...
00:31:59Un petit peu plus...
00:32:00Un petit peu plus...
00:32:00Ah, bon...
00:32:11Voila.
00:32:13Excellent.
00:32:14It is an heliographique,
00:32:17a device to capture the image forever.
00:32:21An heliographique?
00:32:23Oui.
00:32:25We shall have to come up with something better than that.
00:32:31That was a great night.
00:32:34Best night of my life.
00:32:36It was a different world.
00:32:37A world up high where the air is balmy and anything's possible.
00:32:41That's where we belong, Willie.
00:32:44You know, we should probably keep this run of good fortune to ourselves
00:32:49just till Lucky straightens herself out.
00:32:53Not a problem, William.
00:32:54Besides, for us to come across any more of those, uh, unfortunates,
00:32:57we need the devil's own luck.
00:33:00That's where you're wrong, Willie.
00:33:03Men like us make our own luck.
00:33:06What do you mean?
00:33:15Have you gone mad?
00:33:17No, Willie.
00:33:18We've gone into business.
00:33:21That doesn't give us the right to determine another man's fate.
00:33:23A man is gonna die from the moment he leaves his mother's womb.
00:33:26Their fate's already been determined.
00:33:29All we'd be doing is helping them along a bit.
00:33:36You know, you look very elegant in that new suit.
00:33:44Fine tailoring becomes you.
00:33:49If you think you're gonna convince me like that, you're wrong.
00:33:52I don't care about clothes.
00:33:53But you care about women, right?
00:33:56And a fine one.
00:33:58Costs an arm and a leg.
00:33:59At the very least.
00:34:01And that Miss Ginny.
00:34:04She's a very fine one indeed.
00:34:09Beautiful.
00:34:12Talented.
00:34:14Not to mention a fine pair.
00:34:15All right, you've made your point.
00:34:17But not like this.
00:34:19There's a place in the old town that'll suit us fine.
00:34:21Oh my, my glit.
00:34:24Now to edit it.
00:34:26Judge's against!
00:34:27Judge's against!
00:34:28Judge's against!
00:34:29Ha!
00:34:30Ha!
00:34:32Ah ha!
00:34:40No!
00:34:56Ah!
00:34:59It's nice, ma'am.
00:35:13The next one, we just stab in the heart with a knife.
00:35:16No.
00:35:24Look, I have another idea.
00:35:47As a coachman, can't this bloody thing go faster?
00:35:57They're coming.
00:36:02Faster, way faster.
00:36:04Faster.
00:36:17Come on, buddy.
00:36:18Put your back in there.
00:36:41Fuck me.
00:36:52I'm telling you, Willie, it'll be over in a flash.
00:36:54I'm telling you, I don't like this one better.
00:36:56And I am confident that this is the only way.
00:36:59You know, William, I had confidence in a fart once, and I shadowed over myself.
00:37:04Oh.
00:37:06Oh.
00:37:20Oh.
00:37:27Oh.
00:37:37Oh.
00:37:50Oh.
00:37:51Oh.
00:37:54Oh.
00:37:55Oh, somebody come through the street?
00:37:59Oh, somebody?
00:38:01Oh, somebody?
00:38:02Oh, somebody.
00:38:03Oh, somebody?
00:38:04Hey, I was like, I'm kind of lying.
00:38:08Oh, somebody?
00:38:10So.
00:38:11Oh, somebody?
00:38:15We did, like, hi, hi, on.
00:38:17Oh, hello.
00:38:19Hello?
00:38:20Hello?
00:38:21Come on.
00:38:22Oh, oh, oh!
00:38:25Oh, oh, oh.
00:38:25Do you have a light?
00:38:26Oh.
00:38:31Oh.
00:38:33Oh.
00:38:40Oh.
00:38:43Oh.
00:38:43Oh!
00:38:45Oh!
00:38:45Oh!
00:38:45Oh!
00:38:45Oh!
00:38:46Oh!
00:38:46Oh!
00:38:47Oh!
00:38:52Oh!
00:38:53Oh!
00:38:55Oh!
00:38:57Are you all right?
00:38:59This man's untimely and premature death was, as should be fairly obvious to all of you,
00:39:07the direct result of gluttony!
00:39:16I cooked your favourite.
00:39:22Or both smoky and champed tatty.
00:39:36Lovely.
00:39:51I'm not stupid, William.
00:39:53Three dead bodies and a pocket full of money.
00:39:55Doesn't take a genius to work out what the pair of you have been up to.
00:40:00I think it's the best bloody idea you've ever had.
00:40:06One condition, I want a pound for everybody you sell.
00:40:09A pound?
00:40:10A man starts getting fancy clothes.
00:40:13Also starts getting fancy ideas.
00:40:17Just think of it as a tax between a man and a wife.
00:40:21A kind of nuptial agreement, if you will.
00:40:26You may be named lucky, but I am the lucky one, my darling.
00:40:34I don't listen to you.
00:40:36I'm watching you.
00:40:37I'm watching you.
00:40:39Oh!
00:40:40Champagne!
00:40:41I am impressed, William.
00:40:43That must have set you back a pretty penny.
00:40:45Well, I thought you.
00:40:47To good news.
00:40:49To good news?
00:40:52Hmm.
00:40:54What good news?
00:40:55I have decided to finance your play.
00:40:58No!
00:40:59Ah!
00:41:00Ah!
00:41:01Mr. Fargo!
00:41:08Who's that over there with Jenny Hawkins?
00:41:13That's Willie Bork.
00:41:16Who?
00:41:16I think you're like the gravedigger solvers in the country of William Hare.
00:41:21You're drinking champagne.
00:41:24Find out what his racket is.
00:41:28May I ask what persuaded you to be so bold as to invest in an all-female production of the
00:41:33Scottish play?
00:41:35You have an incredible talent, Jenny.
00:41:38I saw that the night we met.
00:41:40A talent like that is a gift from God.
00:41:42To see it go to waste over something as trivial as money?
00:41:45That would be a travesty.
00:41:46I had no idea you were so passionate about the theatre, Mr. Burke.
00:41:51Not the theatre, Jenny.
00:41:54You.
00:42:02Thank you for a lovely evening, Mr. Burke.
00:42:05Uh, William, please.
00:42:10Oh, sorry.
00:42:13Um...
00:42:16When will I be able to see you again, Jenny?
00:42:18At the Lyceum Theatre.
00:42:20Really? When?
00:42:22When we put down the deposit.
00:42:26Goodnight, William.
00:42:42I need to make more money. Fast.
00:42:44Don't tell me she'd charge you for the night.
00:42:46She is an actress, not a whore.
00:42:49What's the difference?
00:42:51I am going to finance her play.
00:42:52But with the economy in its current condition, I think I'd have to advise against such a high-risk investment.
00:42:57Not everything is about money, William.
00:43:01William.
00:43:02William Hare?
00:43:03This is no time to be resting on your laurels.
00:43:06Or to be getting yourself inebriated.
00:43:08You got a business to run.
00:43:10We was just talking about that.
00:43:12Why don't you join us, love?
00:43:13She knows.
00:43:15Yes, she does.
00:43:17Don't worry, Willie.
00:43:18I can keep your mouth shut.
00:43:19I'm sorry to take so long.
00:43:21I was just having a word with that old lady over there.
00:43:24Tragic story.
00:43:25Just lost her whole family to the pox, and it's left her homeless.
00:43:29I'll be back.
00:43:42Look, he's got her drunk.
00:43:43Now you just hold her still.
00:43:45I'm trying.
00:43:46Hey, hey, you know, this is how they put wounded soldiers out of their misery on the battlefield.
00:43:52All right, what's that called?
00:43:53It doesn't really have a name.
00:43:56Perhaps we should invent one.
00:43:57We'll just get it over with, William.
00:43:59No, I've got it, I've got it.
00:44:00In honor of my best friend, from now on, this shall be called...
00:44:07Birking.
00:44:21Yeah!
00:44:22Help!
00:44:24Help!
00:44:26Help!
00:44:27Help!
00:44:28Help!
00:44:29Help!
00:44:34Is she dead?
00:44:36I think so.
00:44:45Yeah, she snuffed it.
00:44:46I certainly hope so.
00:45:00And thou, opposed being of no woman born,
00:45:04yet will I try the last.
00:45:07Lay on the doff,
00:45:09and damned be him who first cry,
00:45:11hold enough!
00:45:14I see. That was...
00:45:15Please let go.
00:45:17That was interesting. Well done.
00:45:19We'll, um, we'll be in touch.
00:45:21Just don't hold your breath.
00:45:22Uh, shh. Silence, gentlemen.
00:45:25Sorry.
00:45:27I thought we'd agreed you'd keep your mouth shut.
00:45:29This is costing me enough without incurring any further delays.
00:45:31I was just being honest.
00:45:32This is the theatre, William.
00:45:34It's not a place for honesty.
00:45:36Next!
00:45:38Miss Clarissa Windsor,
00:45:39reading for the part of Macbeth.
00:45:43Thank you!
00:45:44Thank you!
00:45:45We're going to need another day of auditions.
00:45:48Maybe even two, Willie.
00:45:51That's not going to be a problem, is it?
00:45:53Uh, no, no.
00:45:55You take as much time as you like, love.
00:45:57Could you unbutton me, darling?
00:46:01I, uh...
00:46:29I trust all is well with your biscuits?
00:46:31I, uh, can't complain.
00:46:34I just don't know if we're ever going to find a convincing Macbeth.
00:46:38Well, uh, I think you should play the role.
00:46:43What makes you think I could star in direct?
00:46:46Your talent.
00:46:48And your vision.
00:46:49I have.
00:46:50Been blessed with a lot of talent.
00:46:53And I have a vision.
00:46:55Do you think?
00:46:56I know.
00:47:12Climb in, Willie.
00:47:14We're going for a wee chat with Mr. Macbeth.
00:47:22Let me tell you how things work in this little city of mine.
00:47:27Anyone who attempts to start a new business here
00:47:30has to agree to pay me a small percentage of the gross.
00:47:34And in return, I make sure you stay out of jail.
00:47:38You're not harassed by the authorities,
00:47:40the competition,
00:47:42or any other antagonist that might just come along.
00:47:46So we pay you for...
00:47:50protection?
00:47:53Why, yes, I like that.
00:47:55Protection.
00:47:56How much of a percentage are we talking about?
00:47:5950%.
00:48:00Half!
00:48:00Don't be unhappy, boys.
00:48:03Mr. Macbeth hasn't yet told you the good part.
00:48:08And, uh...
00:48:09what would be the good part?
00:48:11You get to remain alive.
00:48:25We should leave town immediately.
00:48:28Go to London or America.
00:48:30I think I might even have my cousin there.
00:48:32And quit the most lucrative enterprise we're ever likely to find?
00:48:35I don't think so.
00:48:37Willie, we have identified a demand
00:48:39and found a supply.
00:48:40It's perfect.
00:48:41Yeah, but MacTavish is not for full shilling, is he?
00:48:44The last thing I want to do is get in the bed with that man.
00:48:46Ah, but you do want to get in the bed with Ginny, right?
00:48:48And to do that, you're going to have to stay right here
00:48:50and continue to finance our play.
00:48:53Well, oh, great Neptune's ocean washed this blood
00:48:59clean from my hand.
00:49:01No!
00:49:01Oh!
00:49:02Ah!
00:49:02This is my hand!
00:49:03I'd rather love to the seas incarnadine.
00:49:07But the green one's red.
00:49:09My hands are of your colour,
00:49:12but I am ashamed to wear a heart so white.
00:49:15Wait, stop right there.
00:49:16Oh, what now?
00:49:18No, something's still not quite right.
00:49:20I need a minute to think.
00:49:22Ginny, please.
00:49:23Just say the words.
00:49:36I can't work out what makes this character commit murder.
00:49:40Why, Ginny,
00:49:42he does it for love.
00:49:47And power.
00:49:49Macbeth isn't wholly evil.
00:49:51There are traces of goodness and regret within him.
00:49:55That's what makes him such a great tragic hero.
00:49:57The whole play is about his inner struggle
00:50:00between good and evil.
00:50:02Right and wrong.
00:50:07Yeah, I've hidden depths, William.
00:50:10Women like that in a man.
00:50:17May I see you tonight?
00:50:18Ah, um, I-I don't think that's a good idea.
00:50:23I-I've got costume fittings tomorrow.
00:50:31This is ground-breaking work, sir.
00:50:35Now, the king will be in residence at Holyrood in just three weeks.
00:50:39Will this work be completed in time?
00:50:40Ah, I shall have to step up the pace,
00:50:42but I don't foresee any major problems.
00:50:45Sir Astley Cooper acquired his knighthood
00:50:47by having successfully lanced a boil on the king's head.
00:50:50I can only begin to imagine the level of patronage
00:50:53his majesty will confer on you having seen these, uh...
00:50:57Oh, I'm, um...
00:50:58I'm calling them photographs.
00:51:01Sir.
00:51:03Photographs.
00:51:05Excellent!
00:51:06No, no, no, no.
00:51:08My lord.
00:51:10Gentlemen.
00:51:18Any difficulties acquiring subjects, doctor?
00:51:21I'll admit the anatomical by-law
00:51:23was a temporary inconvenience,
00:51:25but not even you, Monroe,
00:51:27can stand in the way of progress.
00:51:29Good day, gentlemen.
00:51:38You know, you've got a good business going there, Willie.
00:51:41I know.
00:51:41I know.
00:51:42But the problem is product acquisition.
00:51:47What?
00:51:47Oh, killing people.
00:51:49That's how you acquire your product.
00:51:51It's not efficient.
00:51:52I know, it's bloody hard work.
00:51:53That's what it is.
00:51:54I mean, people are starting to notice, you know.
00:51:56There's all kinds of crazy rumours
00:51:58flying around the Westport, but...
00:52:01Keep going, Willie.
00:52:02Helps me think.
00:52:04Oh, oh.
00:52:05Oh, the thing is that
00:52:06nobody likes dealing with dead bodies,
00:52:08so for a fee,
00:52:10you can take them off their hands,
00:52:12sell them a coffin
00:52:13for their loved ones,
00:52:14arrange a burial.
00:52:15And when people are grieving,
00:52:16they don't think about how much things cost.
00:52:18We could call it a funeral store.
00:52:20Oh!
00:52:21Oh, oh, oh.
00:52:23Oh, funeral store and all.
00:52:26Sounds too down market.
00:52:27I'd prefer something like
00:52:30funeral parlour.
00:52:31Oh, God, yes!
00:52:33Yes, that's a fantastic idea!
00:52:35Oh, don't stop!
00:52:36Don't stop, Willie!
00:52:38I'm almost there!
00:52:39Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:52:53Ah, Mr. Hare, Dr. Knox would like the pleasure of your company.
00:52:58As from now, I shall require two bodies a week.
00:53:03Fresh ones, mind you, in good condition.
00:53:06That won't be easy, doctor.
00:53:08Mr. Hare, I've never asked you how you came by these subjects.
00:53:12Oh, my partner and I have arrangements
00:53:15with the low lodging houses in the Westport.
00:53:17Whenever someone dies...
00:53:19Mr. Hare, I'm a doctor.
00:53:21I know the difference between death by natural and unnatural causes.
00:53:27Edinburgh is a very dangerous place, Dr. Knox.
00:53:30And something tells me that recently it's become a lot more dangerous.
00:53:36I don't presume to judge, Mr. Hare.
00:53:40But I know that as a result of my work and the doctors I train,
00:53:48thousands, perhaps millions of lives will be saved.
00:53:53Two a week, Mr. Hare. Can you manage that?
00:54:00After service, sir.
00:54:05What more could a man ask for?
00:54:07Mighty fine place you have here, gentlemen.
00:54:10How much will you be asking?
00:54:13Nothing.
00:54:24Do something!
00:54:35On hand, my boys!
00:54:40Gentlemen, we live, thank God, in enlightened times.
00:54:45The watchword of our age is progress.
00:54:50Progress in the arts.
00:54:57Progress in science. Progress in technology.
00:55:03Progress in transportation.
00:55:14Progress in society.
00:55:17Please help me!
00:55:19Fox, get your sketchbook.
00:55:21In all these fields we've moved further and faster in the last two decades
00:55:26than in the previous two centuries.
00:55:29Never before have ordinary people had so much freedom and opportunity.
00:55:36The year is 1828 and we are building a new world.
00:55:44A new and better world.
00:55:49A new and better world.
00:55:53Sergeant, keep them quiet!
00:55:55Quiet, please!
00:55:58As men of science, it is our role, nay, our duty,
00:56:04to be in the vanguard of that movement.
00:56:09This is not the time for rest.
00:56:12It is not a time for half measures.
00:56:15This is not the time to sit on our achievements.
00:56:20It is the time to work harder and faster than ever before.
00:56:30Gentlemen, I give you a multiple dissection!
00:56:55You don't think I look a little bit too masculine?
00:56:58You know, too much like a man.
00:57:00I think you look lovely.
00:57:03I'll see you on Friday.
00:57:25Excellent work, folks.
00:57:26Now we'll go and do the new town.
00:57:35Willie?
00:57:41The militia have posters up all over the streets.
00:57:44Of us?
00:57:45No!
00:57:46Of the people we've...
00:57:48You know...
00:57:52You're closing in, William.
00:57:54Then it's our good fortune that we're not doing it anymore.
00:57:57I've been doing the sums, Willie.
00:57:59I have got enough money put aside to start our new business.
00:58:03What new business?
00:58:05Funeral...
00:58:06Parlours.
00:58:07Funeral parlours?
00:58:09It's a place where people bring bodies to be buried.
00:58:11And we wouldn't have to kill them.
00:58:13And we wouldn't have to kill them.
00:58:14They're already dead!
00:58:18I like it.
00:58:19I knew you would.
00:58:20We're going straight to the top, Ollie.
00:58:23And nobody...
00:58:24Nobody...
00:58:25Is gonna stop us.
00:58:48All right.
00:58:49I'll...
00:58:49Shh!
00:58:49Everyone.
00:58:52I'd like to propose a toast...
00:58:54To the man whose hard work...
00:58:57And whose commitment...
00:58:59Made this possible.
00:59:01To William Burke.
00:59:03To William Burke!
00:59:04William Burke.
00:59:06No, come on now.
00:59:11You embarrass me.
00:59:12I know.
00:59:17It's me!
00:59:20Oh, Willie.
00:59:21I don't know how to thank you.
00:59:23I can think of a few ways.
00:59:31Come to my ticket, Danny.
00:59:33Blood and guts aren't entertainment for me, William.
00:59:37They're business.
00:59:38Now get in.
00:59:46I've decided to bring you and Mr Burke into the firm.
00:59:50Sorry?
00:59:51You have regular employment.
00:59:53A steady wage.
00:59:55We'll be partners.
00:59:57Partners?
00:59:58Is it?
01:00:02But...
01:00:03Willie and I are out of the body-snatching business now.
01:00:06Hmm.
01:00:07So you say.
01:00:09Do I have a choice, Danny?
01:00:11Of course you do, William.
01:00:12I assume.
01:00:13Free will is what distinguishes man from beast.
01:00:27Our final subject.
01:00:37Isn't that Danny McTavish?
01:00:41Danny McTavish is being dissected by Dr. Knox.
01:00:51I am Captain McClintock, and this is the Edinburgh Militia.
01:00:57Your reputation precedes you, Captain McClintock.
01:01:01Thank you, sir.
01:01:03Your preposterous war on grave robbery was a model of incompetence.
01:01:07It has come to my attention, sir, that earlier on today, you publicly dissected a corpse.
01:01:13Well, if this is him, then your information is correct.
01:01:20Pull yourself together, private.
01:01:24How did you obtain this body?
01:01:27Patterson?
01:01:28I believe it was dumped in the alley behind this building.
01:01:31Some students found him.
01:01:32This is a notorious villain.
01:01:35Danny McTavish.
01:01:36At least his demise might not be in vain.
01:01:38St. Peter might look kindly on his services to the teaching of medicine.
01:01:48Fox, show me your hand.
01:01:55A defensive wound.
01:01:57Clear evidence of foul play.
01:02:00And you, sir, have been tampering with that evidence.
01:02:03That's an outrageous accusation, Captain McClintock.
01:02:07I shall be reporting this matter to the Solicitor General.
01:02:11Lord Harrington won't back my judgment on this.
01:02:14I state my job in it.
01:02:15You just did.
01:02:24The raven himself is part of the world.
01:02:28The raven himself is part of the world.
01:02:32Jenny?
01:02:35How many people are out there?
01:02:36Standing room only.
01:02:38There you go.
01:02:40Oh.
01:02:44When shall we three meet again?
01:02:48Then.
01:02:49In thunder.
01:02:51Lightning.
01:02:52Or in rain.
01:02:55When the hurly-burly's done.
01:02:57When the battle's lost and won.
01:03:00That will be ere the sight of the sand.
01:03:04Awear the blade.
01:03:07Upon the heath.
01:03:09There to meet we.
01:03:11To meet you.
01:03:11Martin.
01:03:13Awe.
01:03:16Awe.
01:03:19Awe.
01:03:22Awe.
01:03:23Awe.
01:03:24Awe.
01:03:30Awe.
01:03:39Awe.
01:03:40wheel. Why?
01:03:43Since two
01:03:44murders have been committed,
01:03:46too terrible for the air!
01:03:49There was a time
01:03:50that when the brains were
01:03:52out, the man would
01:03:54die, and there an
01:03:56end. But now
01:03:58he rise again
01:04:02with 20 mortal
01:04:04murders on their crown
01:04:06and push us from
01:04:08our stools!
01:04:10This is more strange
01:04:13than such a murder
01:04:15is. Oh,
01:04:17how missing persons are here.
01:04:20Qu'est-ce que vous faites ici?
01:04:22Who did
01:04:23all this?
01:04:25C'est moi.
01:04:41Bravo!
01:04:59Jenny?
01:05:01I think they liked it.
01:05:02If I have curtain calls and a standing ovation,
01:05:04I'd say it's a smash hit.
01:05:05This is the happiest day of my life.
01:05:08What's wrong, Willie?
01:05:09You don't seem happy.
01:05:12I'm happy for you, Jen.
01:05:14I just can't help thinking, now this is over,
01:05:16you don't really need me anymore.
01:05:19You're right.
01:05:20I don't need you.
01:05:23But I do want you.
01:05:26Really?
01:05:30Oh, we should take the play to London.
01:05:34Make it musical.
01:05:35I'm blessed with the voice of an angel.
01:05:37Aye, they could do with something new in the West End.
01:05:39Besides, Edinburgh's changed.
01:05:41You know, people have changed.
01:05:43I've changed.
01:05:44Me too.
01:05:47All I want is to be together, Willie.
01:05:49Tonight?
01:05:50Tomorrow.
01:05:51Tonight I'm the star, I must shine.
01:05:53Oh, there's Mary.
01:05:54Mary!
01:05:55Oh, Jenny!
01:05:57They absolutely love us!
01:06:05These are not bad, but as you can see,
01:06:09the heliograph is the future.
01:06:10Did you kill these people?
01:06:12Certainly not!
01:06:14They were all already, um...
01:06:16How do you say, um...
01:06:17shoved into pieces.
01:06:18You disgusting little French fop.
01:06:21I was just doing what I was told.
01:06:23What you were told?
01:06:25Told by whom?
01:06:30How do I look, Patterson?
01:06:32Like someone who's about to go down in history, sir.
01:06:40Yes?
01:06:41We have questions on urgent militia matters for Dr. Knox.
01:06:46He's not here.
01:06:51How?
01:06:56Well, I'd appreciate if you could tell us where we could find him.
01:06:59He's making an official presentation at Holyrood Palace.
01:07:07Sharpen up, then.
01:07:09We're going to pay the king a visit.
01:07:15Morning, Willie.
01:07:20For the love of Lord Jesus, he finally gave it up.
01:07:23No!
01:07:25No.
01:07:27Well, I'm pretty sure tonight's the night.
01:07:30I know this amazing trick you can do with your tongue.
01:07:34Thank you, William.
01:07:41Well, that could have been worse.
01:07:43Do you mean if he'd fallen asleep earlier?
01:07:46Excuse me, what would you like us to do with these, sir?
01:07:49I don't care.
01:07:50Just get rid of them.
01:07:52Dr. Robert Knox.
01:07:56The king is looking forward to seeing your map of the human body.
01:08:00Excellent.
01:08:01My advice is to keep the presentation short, and don't ask him to read too much.
01:08:07His majesty can just look at the pictures.
01:08:13Dr. Robert Knox.
01:08:15Stop right there!
01:08:21I demand you hand over these photographs in the name of the Solicitor General.
01:08:27May I remind you, Captain, that I am the Solicitor General.
01:08:32What exactly do you think you're doing here?
01:08:35Solving a crime, sir.
01:08:40What on earth are you talking about?
01:08:42I'm talking about murder, sir.
01:08:43That volume contains evidence of foul play.
01:08:47I don't know what this absurd little man is trying to prove,
01:08:50but he's making a mockery of our profession.
01:08:52I want him removed.
01:08:53It is you, sir, who is making a mockery of the medical profession.
01:08:57And if there is one single shred of truth in this man's allegations,
01:09:04we shall all have to pay the price.
01:09:09As majesty has asked to see my work, I intend to fulfill his wish.
01:09:15Good day.
01:09:17Either you hand over the evidence, Dr. Knox,
01:09:21or I'll be forced to arrest you!
01:09:23You're not touching it!
01:09:56How many cadavers were used to create the portfolio?
01:10:0216.
01:10:0416?!
01:10:05And who provided the 16 cadavers?
01:10:1417.
01:10:27To be continued..
01:10:43185 theoretically 00.
01:10:441820 00.
01:10:44Edinburgh militia! Nobody moves!
01:10:47Oh, for the love of Lord Jesus!
01:10:50I beg your pardon.
01:10:59Mr. and Mrs. Hare,
01:11:01I'm arresting you both
01:11:03on suspicion of murder
01:11:05in the first degree.
01:11:12We did terrible things, William.
01:11:14A man has a right to scratch out a living.
01:11:17Nobody's going to blame us for that.
01:11:19Jenny can.
01:11:21Yeah.
01:11:24She's going to find out, isn't she?
01:11:26She'll know everything.
01:11:29I won't lie to you, will I?
01:11:31It is a possibility.
01:11:42This is unbelievable.
01:11:45I can see the headline.
01:11:47Macbeth accused of murder.
01:11:49You really have no idea, do you?
01:11:54Captain, you have no right to keep us here.
01:11:57I have every right.
01:11:59Will you please sit down?
01:12:02Now, Mrs. Hare, I have some question I'd like to ask you.
01:12:06I'm not saying anything.
01:12:08Especially not to a Presbyterian.
01:12:10I'm half Jewish.
01:12:12I'm being persecuted by a heathen!
01:12:15This is an outrage.
01:12:17I demand to speak to the solicitor general.
01:12:19I demand to be released immediately.
01:12:21Immediately?
01:12:22I demand to speak to a Catholic.
01:12:25Miss Hawkins and Miss Hare, however you keep quiet, I'll have you both shot!
01:12:34Wee Captain Tam McClintock of the Edinburgh Melissa has apprehended the perpetrators of the notorious Westport murders.
01:12:43The list of victims include Mrs. Mariel Toole of the Newtown, Daft Jamie of the Westport, the freed slave John
01:12:54Martin of London, Mrs. Susanna McCartendale of Aberdeen.
01:12:59In the river below!
01:13:03I demand you disperse immediately!
01:13:15That must be!
01:13:43I can't live with this on my conscience, all right?
01:13:49I've got to confess.
01:13:53The minute we're out of here, we'll find you a priest.
01:13:56There's no way I will ever be redeemed in the eyes of the Lord Almighty.
01:13:59I've got to confess to the proper authorities here on Earth.
01:14:02That's not such a good idea, will he?
01:14:07Because you'd be putting a noose around your own neck.
01:14:11It's no more than I deserve.
01:14:16Not to mention putting a noose around my neck.
01:14:22And Loki's.
01:14:27And Jenny's.
01:14:34Let me handle this.
01:14:36Ah, pleasure to see you again, Captain.
01:14:40All right.
01:14:42Can you tell us what we're supposed to have done?
01:14:4416 counts of first-degree murder.
01:14:48That does sound serious.
01:14:50And do you have any of the bodies?
01:14:53Do you have any eyewitnesses?
01:14:54In fact, you have a single shred of evidence.
01:15:00It's all in there, waddy.
01:15:18Captain, a message from Lord Harrington, sir.
01:15:21He wants to see you, sir, at your earliest convenience.
01:15:24His lordship also said to bring Dr. Knox's portfolio with you.
01:15:40Captain, take a seat.
01:15:42Oh, thank you, Lord.
01:15:45Chocolate?
01:15:48The Lord Provost and I are very interested to know how we're doing on this case.
01:15:53Well, at present, I have Mr. Burke and Mr. Hare under lock and key.
01:15:59I'm not admitting anything, but I'm sure by the time I finish for them, they will crack.
01:16:03I'm sure of that.
01:16:06But is that really what we want, Captain?
01:16:09Excuse me, sir?
01:16:09This city is renowned for its medical facilities.
01:16:13Students come from all over the world to train in our anatomy schools.
01:16:18They bring a great deal of money with them.
01:16:21We're rightfully proud of our status and of our traditions.
01:16:26It would be a pity to sally them with a scandal such as a high-profile murder trial.
01:16:32Especially a murder trial that might compromise the reputations of our esteemed teaching hospitals.
01:16:38You're surely not suggesting that I let these two men go free?
01:16:42No, no.
01:16:43We need someone to swing for these crimes, but no trial.
01:16:47The city will gladly show its gratitude for your delicate handling of this affair.
01:16:52In fact, in a city of this standing, surely the militia should be commanded by a major or even a
01:17:00colonel.
01:17:03Indeed.
01:17:04Rest assured, my lord, my lords, that the city can rely on me.
01:17:09That's settled, then.
01:17:14We'll look after that, colonel.
01:17:18Thank you, my lord.
01:17:20My lord.
01:17:45So let me get this straight, captain.
01:17:47Colonel.
01:17:53If one of us confesses to having committed these crimes, the others will walk free.
01:18:01Precisely.
01:18:02But that is outrageous!
01:18:04We're all innocent!
01:18:05Nobody's going to confess to a crime they didn't commit just to make you popular with a mob out there!
01:18:10It's all right, William!
01:18:12This is the chance for one of us to do the decent thing.
01:18:14You call that decent?
01:18:16What kind of man would do such a thing?
01:18:22I will.
01:18:28Thank you, God.
01:18:31On one condition.
01:18:51I know what you did.
01:18:54I am so sorry, Jenny.
01:18:57I-I-I don't expect you to forgive my...
01:19:01It's just so romantic.
01:19:05Confessing to save the life of your lover.
01:19:10It's like Shakespeare.
01:19:16For never was there a story of such woe as of Jenny and her Romeo.
01:19:27I'm sorry.
01:19:28I'm sorry.
01:19:29I'm sorry.
01:19:30I'm sorry.
01:19:30I'm sorry.
01:19:31I'm sorry.
01:19:32I'm sorry.
01:19:33I'm sorry.
01:19:34I'm sorry.
01:19:35I'm sorry.
01:19:38I'm sorry.
01:19:41I'm sorry.
01:20:42You are convicted of the heinous crimes of grave robbery and multiple murder.
01:20:53Do you have anything to say before you're consigned to hell?
