00:07The End
00:30Oh, my God.
01:11Evening, Mr. West.
01:12Third class, London Brick.
01:13Single or return?
01:14Oh, it doesn't matter. Single.
01:20Quickly.
01:22Quickly.
01:30Quickly.
02:00Quickly.
02:11He's dead.
02:14Must have fallen from the train.
02:16Yeah, look at his head.
02:18You need back to the station. Tell him what happened.
02:20I'll stay here.
02:51I'll be right back.
03:21I'll be right back.
03:24I'll be right back.
03:39I'll be right back.
03:45Nothing in the paper, Watson?
03:48No, there's another revolution in South America, possible war in Africa.
03:52Nothing of interest to you.
03:53No, the London criminal is certainly a dull fellow.
04:01The thief or the murderer could roam London on a day like this, as the tiger does the jungle, unseen
04:06until he pounces, and then evident only to his victim.
04:11There are numerous petty thefts, but this great and somber stage is set for something more worthy than that.
04:22It is fortunate.
04:23It is fortunate for the community that I am not a criminal.
04:32For you, Mr. Holmes.
04:34It is, Mr. Holmes.
04:35For you, Mr. Holmes.
04:36For you, Mr. Holmes.
04:50Mycroft has his line.
04:52Mycroft has his lines and he runs on them.
04:54Pall Mall lodgings, the Diogenes Club, Whitehall.
04:57That's his cycle once.
04:58Only once has he ever been here.
04:59I mean, what upheaval can possibly have derailed him?
05:05I must see you over Cadogan West coming at once.
05:08Cadogan West?
05:10I've heard the name.
05:11It would cause nothing to my mind.
05:13Mycroft breaking out in this erratic fashion.
05:16It's extraordinary.
05:17Watson, you do know what Mycroft is.
05:21I seem to remember at the time of that affair the Greek interpreter, you told me that he had some
05:25small office under the British government.
05:27Oh, I did not quite say one of those days.
05:30His position is unique.
05:32He's made it for himself.
05:34There's never been anything like it before nor will be again.
05:36He has the tidiest and most orderly brain with the greatest capacity for storing facts of any man living.
05:44The conclusions of every government department are passed to him.
05:47He is the central exchange which makes out the balance.
05:51All other men are specialists.
05:54His specialism is omniscience.
05:59Time and time again, Mycroft's word has decided national policy.
06:04Then Jupiter himself is descending upon us today.
06:08Yes indeed.
06:09No trace of Cadogan West.
06:12West.
06:14I have it.
06:16Yes, Cadogan West.
06:18Cadogan West was the young man who was found dead on the underground on Tuesday morning.
06:24Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
06:26It was a featureless case as I remember.
06:28A young man killed falling from a moving train.
06:30No robbery, no violence.
06:32Watson.
06:33Rather Mycroft.
06:34Oh.
06:37That looks like our old friend Inspector Bradstreet.
06:41Oh.
06:41Why should he bring a policeman with him?
06:46Ah.
06:47Here we are.
06:48Who?
06:48Cadogan West.
06:50Clerk at the Woolwich Arsenal.
06:52Twenty-seven unmarried.
06:54Government employee.
06:55But hold the link with my brother Mycroft.
06:57Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
06:58Sherlock.
06:59Mycroft.
07:01Ah.
07:03Doctor.
07:04Watson.
07:06Watson.
07:07You know Bradstreet.
07:08No, Mr. Watson.
07:09Cadogan West.
07:11A most annoying business, Sherlock.
07:14I extremely dislike altering my habits that the powers that be would brook no denial.
07:20In the present state of Siam it's most awkward I should be away from the office.
07:24But it is a real crisis, Sherlock.
07:28I've never seen the Prime Minister so upset.
07:31And as to the Admiralty, buzzing like an overturned beehive.
07:37Do sit down, Bradstreet.
07:40There's nothing unusual reported in the newspapers.
07:44I should hope not.
07:47The wretched youth had the plans of the Bruce Partington submarine in his pocket.
07:58Well, you must have heard of it.
08:00Only by name.
08:01Its importance can hardly be exaggerated.
08:05It has been the most closely guarded of all government secrets.
08:10You may take it from me that naval warfare becomes impossible within the radius of a Bruce Partington operation.
08:20What sort of plans are we talking about?
08:24Extremely intricate ones, Sherlock.
08:26Some thirty different patents.
08:28Each one essential to the working of the home.
08:30Where are the plans normally kept?
08:32In an elaborate safe in a confidential office adjoining the arsenal at Woolwich with burglar-proof doors and windows.
08:41If the chief constructor of the Navy himself desired to consult the plans, he would have to go to Woolwich
08:46to do so.
08:48To think they should turn up in the pocket of a dead junior clerk in the heart of London is
08:54simply awful.
08:55Then you recovered the papers.
08:56No, Sherlock, no.
08:58That's the pinch.
08:59We have not.
09:01Some ten papers were taken from Woolwich.
09:05Only seven were found in the pocket of Cadogan West.
09:09The other three are missing, gone, vanished, stolen.
09:12You must drop everything, Sherlock.
09:15Never mind your usual petty puzzles of the police courts.
09:19This is a real international crisis that you have to solve.
09:26There are some points of interest in the case, I suppose.
09:32I'll be pleased to look into it.
09:34Ah!
09:36Bradstreet.
09:37Now, who held the keys to that safe?
09:40There are two sets of keys.
09:43Sir James Walter holds one set.
09:45He is the actual official guardian of the papers.
09:47A man grown grey in the service of the state.
09:51A favoured guest in the most exalted houses, his patriotism is above suspicion.
09:56And the other keys?
09:57A Mr. Sidney Johnson, the senior clerk and draftsman.
10:00A silent, morose man. Not popular, but a hard worker.
10:04His wife corroborates his account of the matter.
10:06He was at home the whole of Monday night and the keys never left the watch chain upon which they
10:10hang.
10:10What sort of fellow was this man, West?
10:13Hot-headed, rather impetuous.
10:17His duties brought him into daily contact with the plans.
10:20Who locked them up that night?
10:21Johnson, the senior clerk.
10:22And yet they were found on the person of the junior clerk.
10:24Well, I mean, that seems final, does it not?
10:26Yes, but why would he take...
10:27If you think of any reason why he should take them up to London except to sell them?
10:32Nope.
10:33You must take that as our working hypothesis.
10:37West could only have done this with false keys.
10:42He opens the safe, takes out some papers, goes up to London to see a foreign agent.
10:47He has to have them back before morning or the loss will be discovered.
10:51He took away ten, seven to win in his pocket.
10:55What became of the other three?
10:57He certainly wouldn't leave them of his own free will.
10:59It all seems perfectly clear to me.
11:02As you say, Mr. Holmes, West stole the plans in order to sell them.
11:07He met the agent, but they could not agree as to a price.
11:11So West returned home again, but the agent followed him.
11:14In the train, the agent murdered him, took the more essential papers,
11:20and threw the body from the railway carriage.
11:23Now, that would explain everything, would it not?
11:25It's good.
11:27It's very good, Bradstreet.
11:29The theory holds together.
11:31But if that is so, the case is at an end.
11:33On the one hand, the traitor is dead.
11:34On the other, the plans of the Bruce Partington submarine are presumably somewhere on the continent.
11:39I mean, what is there for me to do?
11:40To act, Sherlock.
11:43To act.
11:45All my instincts are against this explanation.
11:48And yours too, I think.
11:51We are not brothers for nothing.
11:53Use your powers.
11:55Go to the scene.
11:56Question the people concerned.
11:58Leave no stone unturned.
12:00In all your career, you'll never have a greater chance of serving your country.
12:05If you, on your part, will be counted enough to send me a complete list of foreign spies and international
12:10agents known to be in England.
12:12And their full address.
12:14Either we, on our part, can begin our investigation by a visit to Walgate Station, Bradstreet.
12:20Watson.
12:21Mrs Hudson.
12:23Good evening.
12:24Good evening.
12:40When was the body found?
12:42Near enough to six o'clock, sir.
12:43Tuesday morning.
12:45He must have fallen from a train sometime Monday night.
12:47Now, the carriage has been examined for any signs of violence.
12:50No such trait of violence has been found.
12:52A report of a door found.
12:56We can tell the approximate time that he entered the train from his ticket.
13:00There was no ticket on the body.
13:04That is really very singular.
13:07In my experience, it is not possible to reach the platform of the Metropolitan Line without exhibiting one's ticket. Is
13:13that not so?
13:14Quite correct, sir.
13:15Surely the murderer would have removed the ticket before throwing West from the train so as not to reveal the
13:21name of the station nearest his place of residence.
13:24I think the doctor has it.
13:25What else did he have in his possession besides the fatal papers and no ticket?
13:30Usual things.
13:31Pocket book.
13:32No case checkbook.
13:33Oh, and two tickets for the dress circle of the Woolwich Theatre for that very evening.
13:41It appears that West was to have attended the performance in the company of his fiancée, Miss Violet Westbury.
13:48She was the last person to see him alive on the fatal night.
13:52They were walking to the theater together in the fog when he suddenly left her.
13:58Suddenly without explanation?
13:59No.
14:01There appears to be no bleeding on the line.
14:04There is hardly any trace of blood to be found.
14:06As I gather there was a considerable wound consistent with a man falling from a moving track.
14:11Well, it was a terrible thing to see, sir.
14:12The head was knocked right in and the bone crushed it.
14:15And yet there was no great external injury.
14:17Everyone would expect some blood.
14:22The line runs northeast.
14:26Yes, the track divides here, sir.
14:28And there's a branch line goes south under the river to rather high than New Cross.
14:34The points.
14:41The points.
14:44I suppose there are no great number of points in a system such as this.
14:48There are very few, sir.
14:51Points.
14:51The points.
14:54And a girl.
14:56Oh, by Jove.
14:58If it were only so.
15:00What is it?
15:03Do you have a clue?
15:05Well, it's an idea, Bradstreet.
15:07An indication, no.
15:09But the case certainly grows in interest.
15:13It's unique.
15:16Perfectly unique.
15:18And yet.
15:19Why not?
15:20Ha!
15:22Ha!
15:30Cairn!
15:32There is material here, Watson.
15:34There is scope.
15:35I was dull indeed not to see its possibilities.
15:38Now I confess it's dark to me.
15:40And to me also.
15:41But I now have hold of an idea which may lead us far.
15:46Now, I think Sir James, the guardian of the plans, claims our first attention.
15:52Plumstead Hall!
16:03Well, Holmes?
16:08Your idea?
16:09Oh, yes.
16:12The man West was killed not by falling or being thrown from a moving train.
16:18He met his death elsewhere.
16:21And his body was on the roof of the carriage.
16:24On the roof?
16:25Well, consider the facts.
16:27Is it a coincidence that the body was found in the very place where the train breaks and sways as
16:33it comes round on the points?
16:34Yes.
16:35The sudden slowing would affect no object inside the carriage, but an object such as a body on the roof.
16:43And there's a question of the plan.
16:45Of course, there was no bleeding on the line if the body bled elsewhere.
16:49Each fact is suggestive in itself. Together they have a cumulative force.
16:52Yes. And the ticket, too.
16:55That would explain the absence of the ticket. Watson, it all fits together.
17:07Please wait.
17:20Come in, please, gentlemen. We were expecting you.
17:33Come in, please, gentlemen.
17:41Ah, gentlemen. Thank you, Baines.
17:45Thank you, sir.
17:46If you'll follow me, the body is upstairs.
17:50Wait! One moment.
17:53Are you not the undertakers?
17:57Excuse me, Sir James.
17:59I am Dr. Watson and this is Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
18:03Good heavens.
18:05We are helping the authorities in the case of the missing papers.
18:10My brother, Sir James Walter, died this morning.
18:14I am Colonel Valentine Walter.
18:19Please, gentlemen.
18:21Please, gentlemen.
18:21Come here.
18:23Please, gentlemen.
18:34Come here.
18:36We are very sorry, sir.
18:40I'm afraid it has been a great shock.
18:43But...
18:44May I ask...
18:46How did your brother die?
18:48It was this horrible scandal.
18:50My brother is...
18:54My brother was a man of very sensitive honor.
18:56He was fiercely proud of the efficiency of his department.
19:00The theft of the plans was a crushing blow.
19:04It broke his heart.
19:06We were hoping Sir James might have been able to help.
19:10I assure you it was as much a mystery to him as it is to all of us.
19:14Naturally, he had no doubt that West was guilty.
19:18But...
19:18Why he should have done such a thing?
19:21Now, of course, we shall never know.
19:25So...
19:27You've been throwing a light on the matter?
19:29Me?
19:30I'm afraid I know nothing save what I've read or heard.
19:34And you never met Cadogan West?
19:36No.
19:37No, I have not been back in the country long.
19:40My brother's work was of a highly confidential nature.
19:43He did not discuss it with me.
19:48Gentlemen, I do not wish to seem discourteous.
19:50But we are much disturbed at present.
19:54I must ask you to hasten this interview to an end.
19:57We're so sorry to have caused you so much trouble.
20:13That's an unexpected development.
20:16Heart failure.
20:19Suicide.
20:21Now for Miss Westbury.
20:23Is that the dead man's fiancée?
20:25Yes.
20:48I cannot explain it, Mr. Holmes.
20:52I haven't closed my eyes since the tragedy.
20:55Thinking and thinking and thinking.
20:58What the true meaning of it can be.
21:02Do sit down.
21:12Arthur was the most single-minded, chivalrous, patriotic man on earth.
21:20He would have cut off his right hand rather than sell a state secret confided to his keeping.
21:25It's absurd.
21:27Impossible.
21:28Preposterous to anyone who knew him.
21:31For facts, Miss Westbury.
21:33Was he in want of money?
21:34No.
21:36His needs were very simple.
21:38And his salary was sufficient.
21:41He'd saved a few hundreds.
21:43And we were to marry at the new year.
21:45Was there any sign of...
21:47mental excitement?
21:50Come, Miss Westbury.
21:51Be absolutely frank with us.
21:55I had a feeling...
21:57there was something on his mind.
22:00For long?
22:02Only the last week or two.
22:04Once I asked him about it.
22:07It is too serious to speak about even to you, he said.
22:11Go on, Miss Westbury.
22:13I mean, even if it seems to tell against him.
22:15We cannot say what it may lead us.
22:19He spoke one evening about a...
22:22a secret.
22:25I think he said that no doubt foreign spies would pay a great deal to have it.
22:30He said that we were slack about such matters and that it would be easy for a traitor to get
22:35hold of the plans.
22:38Oh, Miss Holmes.
22:40If you could only...
22:43only save his honour.
22:44No.
22:45It was so much to him.
22:50Well, I'll do what I can.
22:53Now, please tell us about that last evening.
22:58It was Monday night.
23:02And...
23:03we were to go to the theatre.
23:17Violet.
23:18I'm afraid I've got to leave you.
23:20Leave me?
23:21It's very, very important.
23:24I'm sorry.
23:26You'd better go home.
23:28Go home immediately.
23:29Please.
23:41No, I don't have to.
23:50We're going for it.
23:52No, I don't know.
24:04No, no.
24:22it was just him mr. Holmes and he disappeared without any explanation yes
24:30you are sure this is the exact spot yes we often used to meet here when we were courting
24:39you see that's the building where he used to work
24:46ah that was the last time i saw him well what's the word it was the kindest to take miss
24:51westbury
24:51home in the car
25:12oh it's bad it's very bad of course mr. Jones the whole place is disorganized
25:18west dead now the chief dead our paper stolen
25:25and yet when i closed this office on monday evening we were as efficient as any in the
25:31service at what hour was the office closed on monday at five did you close it i'm always
25:36the last man out is there no night watchman to the building there he is but he has other
25:40departments to look after as well he's uh an old soda the most trustworthy man
25:48he didn't see anything that evening thank you
25:57when you close the office where were the plans in that safe i put them there myself
26:11if cadogan west wished to enter the office after hours he would need three keys within art before
26:17he could reach these papers yes key to the outer door key to the office and the key of the
26:22safe
26:24and only you and sir james walter had those keys yes indeed sir james kept all three keys on
26:31one ring they never left him and of course your keys never left your possession never
26:36sir cadogan west is the culprit he must have had duplicates oh he's the culprit all right
26:42it's dreadful to think that west of all people should have done such a thing
26:47you're sure of his guilt i see no other way he was getting married he wanted the money oh yes
26:55he's your man mr johnson if someone desired to sell the plans surely it'd be easier to make copies
27:07than to take the originals it would need considerable technical knowledge may i see these
27:16and of course you and west and sir james walter had that knowledge that may be so but don't try
27:21to
27:21drag me into this matter mr holmes the plans were found on west it is certainly singular that he
27:28should risk taking the originals when he could have safely taken copies perhaps it was a matter of time
27:33oh yes
27:38now three plans are missing i understand they are the vital ones that is so now someone holding those
27:45three papers i mean could they construct a bruce partington submarine
27:52i told the admiralty that i thought it was possible but today i'm not so sure
27:58these all-important double valves with the automatic self-adjusting slots are drawn only on this plan
28:06which has been returned would you be so kind as to close those windows shutters exactly as they were
28:12on monday night
28:32thank you so much
28:52i think i'll take a little stroll outside oh please don't trouble yourself if i can find my own way

34:30You want me to meet him in a restaurant off the Gloucester Road.
34:34I just hope you'll be careful, that's all.
34:38You're not as young as you were.
34:41You know what Mr. Holmes is like once he gets the bit between his teeth.
34:45I do indeed.
34:47Good night, Mrs. Hudson.
34:49Good night, Doctor.
35:06Thank you, Chef.
35:06Come on, Doctor.
35:08Come on, Doctor.

35:42another coffee and a curacao
35:43please my friend

35:47nothing like as poisonous as one would expect
35:49oh thank you
35:50now
35:53now
35:53for our plan of action
35:57it is evident to you Watson that the body was
35:59placed on the roof of the can
36:02or dropped from a bridge
36:03no that's impossible placed
36:05the carriage roof is surrounded with no rails
36:08how could he be
36:09placed there
36:10in some areas the London Underground
36:14runs clear of tunnels
36:16and past the backs of houses
36:17when I found
36:19that a leading international agent lived in just
36:22such a house
36:23I was so pleased that you were a little astonished
36:25of my sudden vivology
36:26Hugo Oberstein
36:2813 Caulfield Gardens
36:30of course
36:30exactly
36:32I was able to satisfy myself
36:34that not only do the backstay windows open onto the line
36:37but that owing to the intersection
36:39of the Richmond and Wimbledon lines
36:42with the Circle Line
36:43near Gloucester Road Station
36:44the trains are frequently held motionless
36:48at that very spot
36:51but that's splendid
36:52you've got it
36:53the house appears to be unoccupied
36:55Oberstein obviously having gone abroad
36:56to dispose of his booty
36:58he has no reason to fear a warrant
37:00and a spot of amateur burglary
37:01would never occur to him
37:02but that is precisely
37:04what we are about to do
37:06well
37:07why
37:07why for what purpose
37:09we cannot tell what correspondence may be there
37:12no no
37:13no I don't like it Holmes
37:14you can keep watch
37:16I'll do the criminal part
37:18this is no time to stick at trifles
37:21think of the Admiralty
37:22think of the Cabinet
37:24think of the exalted person herself
37:26who waits for news
37:30we're bound to go
37:37I knew you wouldn't shrink at the last
37:40you
37:40I
37:40I
37:41I
37:41I
38:09I
38:09I
38:13serious proposition locked and bolted we may do better in the area
38:35ah this is better jimmy
38:48hoax
38:50hoax
39:06hoax
39:09Oh, my God.
39:41Don't touch us.
39:45Look where they've rested the body.
39:55Blood.
40:00Blood again.
40:25What do you think of that?
40:27Masterpiece.
40:28You've never risen to a great heart.
40:29No, I cannot agree with you.
40:31The moment I conceived the idea of the body on the roof of the train, the rest was ineligible.
40:36And major difficulties I before it.
41:20Oh, fresh plotting paper.
41:22The cunning fellow is covered as trans.
41:36Oh.
41:51The cunning was coming.
42:08There seems to be burning old newspapers.
42:13I think, oh, yeah.
42:16Why would a man so obviously untidy in his habits take the trouble to burn old newspapers?
42:23Probably trying to start a fire.
42:25God, there's no wood.
42:27It's cold.
42:31Let me see.
42:45Ha!
42:52What do you think?
42:56Well done.
42:57Well done.
42:58Indeed.
42:59I think we have our man.
43:01Would you look in the agony column of the two remaining copies of the Daily Telegraph
43:04and I think you will find a message from someone calling himself Piero.
43:08Piero.
43:08Piero.
43:09Ah, here we are.
43:11Hope to hear sooner.
43:12Terms agreed, but must have full report.
43:13Matter presses signed Piero.
43:15And the last.
43:21Yes, by Joke.
43:22Monday night after nine, two taps, only ourselves, payment in hard cash when goods delivered.
43:28Signed Piero, just like the other one.
43:30Every paper has a message from someone calling himself Piero.
43:33It's an odd name for a villain like Oberstein to use.
43:37If only we could get the man at the other end.
43:40Watson, quickly.
43:42We haven't a moment to lose.
43:43Read the papers.
43:48Where are we going?
43:50The offices of the Daily Telegraph.
43:53We've just time.
44:02Splendid, Joke.
44:04Splendid.
44:05I always said you'd make the best cat burglar in London if you put your mind to it.
44:14Can't do these things in the force, Mr. Holmes.
44:16No wonder you sometimes get results that are beyond us.
44:19Some of these days you'll go too far.
44:20You and your friend will find yourselves in trouble.
44:23England home and beauty, eh, Watson?
44:25Martyrs on the altar of our country?
44:27The agony column of the Daily Telegraph.
44:30What use will you make of those?
44:32Have you seen the advertisement from Piero today?
44:41Tonight, same hour, same place.
44:44Two taps.
44:45Perhaps most vitally important.
44:47Your own safety at stake.
44:49Signed, Piero.
44:51Why, George, if he answers that, we've got him.
44:54Hmm.
44:59You and your friend.
45:25Don't wake up, Ramon.
45:27He's here.
45:40Come and see him.
46:09You can write me down as an ass, Watson. This is not the bird I was expecting.
46:14Who is he?
46:15Colonel Valentine Walter, Sir James's younger brother.
46:19I'll begin to see how the cards fall now.
46:22What is this?
46:23I came here to visit Mr. Oberstein.
46:27I know you, surely?
46:30Sherlock Holmes.
46:34Everything is known, Colonel.
46:37How an English gentleman could behave in such a manner is beyond comprehension.
46:43We know of your relations and correspondence with Oberstein.
46:46You stole your brother's keys and had them duplicated.
46:49We know you went to Admiralty office on Monday night and was seen by Cadogan West.
46:54Leaving all his private concerns, being the good citizen that he was.
46:58He followed you closely in the fog, halfway across London, until you reached this very house.
47:02It was then, Colonel Walter, that to treason you added the terrible crime of murder.
47:10I did not.
47:11I did not before God.
47:13I swear I did not.
47:14Then tell us how Arthur Cadogan West met his end before you placed his body on the roof of the
47:18railway carriage.
47:19He followed me, as you describe.
47:22But until I was at the very door of this house, I did not know it.
47:46What are you going to do with those papers?
48:14He hit his head on the marble floor.
48:17He was dead in a matter of minutes.
48:20It was Oberstein's idea to stuff the less important plans in West's pocket and put him on the roof of
48:25the train.
48:33What made you turn traitor, Colonel?
48:38A stock exchange debt had to be paid.
48:42I needed the money badly. Oberstein offered me 5,000.
48:48It was to save myself from ruin and disgrace.
48:55My brother used to discuss matters with me which he probably should not have done.
48:59This submarine, for instance.
49:02How could he ever guess his own brother would betray him?
49:09That was the worst of all.
49:11He suspected me. I know he did. I read it in his eyes.
49:17And after this West business, he never held up his head again.
49:24Can you not make reparation, hmm?
49:27To ease your conscience and possibly your punishment?
49:31What reparation can I make?
49:33Where is Oberstein with the papers?
49:35I do not know.
49:36He said that letters to the Hotel du Louvre in Paris would reach him.
49:41Ah!
49:42Well, then it is possible for you to help us.
49:50Come and sit down.
49:52And write to my dictation.
50:03Dear sir.
50:07In regard to our transaction, you have now observed
50:09that one essential detail is missing.
50:12But I have a tracing that will make it complete.
50:14Is that true, Sherlock?
50:16Quite true.
50:18What essential detail is missing?
50:20The double valves.
50:23The automatic silver adjusting slots.
50:25Good heavens! How on earth did you know that?
50:28I've become quite a submarine expert, brother.
50:30Goodbye.
50:32Now, Colonel.
50:36What would be your terms?
50:42I must ask you for a further 500 pounds.
50:46English notes, please.
50:53I shall expect to meet you...
50:56No, we can hardly say here.
50:58I wish I would suspect a trap.
51:00The foyer of the Charing Cross Hotel.
51:03Its proximity to the railway station
51:05renders it extremely popular
51:07amongst the international spies, fraternity.
51:10Did you get that, Colonel?
51:13Noon.
51:14Saturday next.
51:17I shall be very much surprised
51:19if that does not fetch our man.
51:47Noon.
51:49That's our man?
51:50Mm-hmm.
51:51Mm-hmm.
52:46Let me, let me, let me, let me!
52:50Put your head on the floor.
52:56Splendid, Bradstreet.
52:59But our traitor has flown.
53:02Well, I'll damn the cheek of the feather.
53:05And my gentlemen,
53:07I'm keeping him on a long lead.
53:13There's an R in the month.
53:15And the Diogenes Club has the most excellent oysters.
53:21I should like both you gentlemen to be my guests.
53:26Come along, Sherlock.
54:10Come along, Sherlock.
54:15Come along, Sherlock.
54:45Come along, Sherlock.
