01:00Oh, yeah.
01:02Oh, yeah.
01:03Wake up, Fanny!
01:28Oh, hello, Matt.
01:33You were appearing in your sleep.
01:34Was I?
01:35Oh, that's bad.
01:36I was dreaming.
01:37What about?
01:38Feeling alive.
01:39Hey, I've just seen a something.
01:40Oh.
01:41What sort of a something?
01:42I don't know.
01:43It's like a kind of blurry sort of nothing sort of shape.
01:44Only it didn't have much shape, really.
01:45And there was chains clanking and a groaning noise.
01:46Fanny!
01:47Tell Fromeo, Romeo, wherefore tell Fromeo?
01:48Who?
01:49Tell Fromeo, Romeo, wherefore tell Fromeo?

01:57Who?
01:58Yeah, you not never heard of Romeo?
01:59A racehorse?
02:00No, a lover.
02:01Oh.
02:02He died for love, he did.
02:03Then he must have been daft.
02:04With griping grief the heart doth wound.
02:05I've just seen a...
02:06With doleful doubts the mind oppressed.
02:07Will you listen?
02:08Then music with her silver wand.
02:09Bodkin!
02:10With speedy help doth lend redress.
02:11Fanny!

02:22Fanny!
02:23Mix it up, the two of us.
02:24Very, very popular play, Romeo and Juliet.
02:25Not very funny, but then I didn't have very much in it.
02:28But it was never l— Matt?
02:30Matt?
02:31Well, flappy on kneave.
02:32Thousands of'n, yelling like demons, and banging their spears against their shields.
02:39Think it's exciting?
02:42Well, thrilling!
02:43What shall we do, said young Chadley Watson?
02:49Stop!
02:50young Chadley Watson.
02:52stand
02:54and fight I said.
02:56wasn't that little fool Hardy?
02:58oh no he wasn't there.
03:00who wasn't there?
03:02that little fool Hardy. got rid of him. sent him on leave.
03:04confounded idiot. where was I?
03:06facing thousands of fuzzy waffles.
03:08ah yes yes yes
03:10stand and fight I said.
03:12that's what we'll do. we'll show these
03:14savages how Englishmen
03:16can die. and did you?
03:18oh yes. absolute massacre.
03:20only about ten of us got away.
03:22mind you
03:24I think the ammunition had something
03:26to do with it. oh why? wrong size.
03:28wouldn't fit in the rifles. whose fault
03:30was that?
03:36I think we're in for some more rain.
03:38Sir George!
03:40I've just seen a something in the Great Hall.
03:42something? something.
03:44like a groaning and clanking.
03:46I tried to tell Bodkin and Fanny about it but they wouldn't listen.
03:48clanking?
03:50like chains rattling or something.
03:52and moans. what sort
03:54of moans?
03:56ooooh
03:58very nasty.
04:00didn't look like
04:02anything.
04:04just a foggy sort of mist. foggy?
04:06mist. oh it couldn't be
04:08could it? what?
04:10old gory.
04:12gory? it sounds as if it might be.
04:14does a bit.
04:16but he can't be due again yet
04:18surely can he? yes he could be.
04:20but it seems only yesterday that he was here last.
04:22who's old gory?
04:24he was here before
04:26Motley was built. well legend has it.
04:28yes yes.
04:30seems there's some sort of skirmish on this spot
04:32during the Wars of the Roses and old gory
04:34was
04:36in it. he doesn't appear very often.
04:38thank goodness. about once every
04:40five years. which is more than often enough.
04:42why? oh because he's so
04:44boring and miserable he never stops moaning.
04:46well
04:48I know I enjoy a good moan on them
04:50but at least I don't ever do it.
04:52oh well
04:54better
04:56warn the others I suppose.
05:00oh no not him again.
05:02are you sure? I tried to tell you
05:04but you wouldn't stop Romeoing. Romeoing?
05:06he's even more boring
05:08than...
05:10and he's so visible.
05:12visible? I can hardly see him.
05:14he wait till he really appears. he's one of them
05:16conspicuous spectres.
05:18everybody can see him.
05:20not only us. you mean
05:22live people? I was always
05:24seeing him when I was alive.
05:26every five years regular as clockwork.
05:28my governess even did a drawing
05:30of him. you never get rid of him.
05:32he hangs about for days.
05:34he was here first wasn't he? yeah I think so.
05:36oh I don't know.
05:38a child feeling a bit sorry for him.
05:40yes. well you'd be miserable
05:42if you knew you weren't welcome.
05:44why don't we try and be a bit more friendly. cheer him up a bit.
05:46I'd rather cheer up a funeral.
05:48you could tell him some of your
05:50jokes.
05:52we could try and cheer him up
05:54a bit I suppose.
05:56the old me cock. he was born miserable, died
05:58miserable and still miserable.
06:00nothing we can do will change that.
06:02Hark! a rattling of chains!
06:04I wish you wouldn't do that.
06:06he's here.
06:08for shucks. there's someone a-locking the front door.
06:10who?
06:12anyone in?
06:18come on Margaret.
06:20we haven't got all day.
06:30careful with that Margaret.
06:32don't just bang it down any old hole.
06:34it's very heavy Jack.
06:36no it isn't. all right then. it mustn't hang about.
06:38let's get the rest of it.
06:40has he bought motley?
06:42I hope not.
06:44what's all that stuff?
06:46they don't look the sort that can see us.
06:48you can't tell. it's best to be on the safe side.
07:00Margaret!
07:02I'm sorry Jack.
07:04it's just what I've been looking for.
07:06it's been empty for over 20 years the estate agent said.
07:0820 years?
07:10we go a long way to find a better place than this.
07:12they are buying it.
07:14seems a shame really.
07:16it's a trespassing.
07:18you know you're troubling Margaret too much imagination.
07:20this is going to be a scientifically controlled experiment.
07:22where are the thermometers?
07:24thermometers?
07:26don't say you forgot them Margaret.
07:28oh no no Jack. I know I packed them.
07:30where are they then? you can't lose 48 thermometers?
07:3248 thermometers?
07:34perhaps he's starting a hospital.
07:36I've got him.
07:38why do you need so many Jack?
07:40glad she asked that question.
07:42it's a big place isn't it?
07:44yes.
07:46right.
08:00that should be enough in here.
08:12I don't think he's very well.
08:16oh
08:26what do you think?
08:28yes dear. very nice.
08:30I wish you'd show a little more interest.
08:32where's the cotton?
08:36Margaret bring me the cotton!
08:42I'm going to get one.
08:44I can feel it. I can feel it in my bones.
08:46yes.
08:50what's the lunatic doing?
08:52I think he's harmless.
08:54humming
09:12talcum powder!
09:18no lavender. it doesn't matter what it smells like.
09:24bless you.
09:30that should rule out any hunky-punky.
09:32hunky-punky?
09:34what if you want to go upstairs?
09:36well we go that way.
09:40oh you're so enthusiastic aren't you eh?
09:42whatever comes down these stairs
09:44and doesn't move anything
09:46will be a ghost!
09:48and I shall photograph it
09:50however long it takes.
09:52the moment the temperature drops
09:54I shall know. I shall know they're here.
09:56you need a lot of patience Margaret.
09:58yes dear.
10:00know your trouble Margaret.
10:02no imagination.
10:04it's a very unusual hobby is ghost hunting.
10:08I hope this film's sensitive enough.
10:12right.
10:18I'm going to have a really thorough look round.
10:22are you coming?
10:24I'll just finish this row.
10:26a ghost hunter!
10:28I've never heard anything so disgusting in my life.
10:30makes one feel like some sort of
10:32rare beetle.
10:34here he wants a few pictures.
10:36what's the harm in that?
10:38don't you understand what'll happen if he does manage to photograph us?
10:40he'd go away wouldn't he?
10:42go away? of course he won't go away.
10:44he'll want more and more pictures.
10:46portraits, family groups, informal studies.
10:48make no mistake.
10:50if this lout gets his way
10:52in no time at all that place will be crawling with ghost hunters.
10:54crawling with them.
10:56you've made your point.
10:58no pictures.
11:00how do we get rid of him?
11:02ain't gonna be easy. if we do do something
11:04it'll make him want to stay.
11:06if we don't he'll stay anyhow.
11:08bit of a problem there.
11:10he's coming.
11:12I found a corridor like an icebox.
11:14it just has to be haunted Margaret.
11:16come on woman.
11:18come and see.
11:20come on. this way.
11:22you two go and watch him. he may be preparing a trap for us.
11:24listen.
11:26oh lord.
11:28it's him.
11:30it's old gory.
11:32that's all we need.
11:34if that dreadful man sees him
11:36he's bound to see him. everyone sees old gory.
11:40well
11:42now look so pleased to see me.
11:44where?
11:46I don't know.
12:16in all the books they say that
12:18there's a sudden dramatic drop in temperature
12:20when ghosts are about.
12:22and that places where they appear
12:24are unusually cold anyhow.
12:26you've got to admit that this
12:28this corridor's unusually cold isn't it Margaret?
12:30so's our bedroom Jack. you've never seen a ghost in it.
12:32oh you're so encouraging aren't you eh?
12:34now this place has a reputation for being haunted.
12:36that's why I choose it.
12:38a lot of places have.
12:40a lot of places are.
12:42maybe.
12:44ah and I'm going to prove that Motley is.
12:46I just don't want you being disappointed that's all.
12:48disappointed? why should I be disappointed?
12:50like you were over that cinema organ.
12:52why did you have to bring that up?
12:54I'd have finished it if they'd sent me all the parts.
12:56I just wish you'd get rid of the parts they did send you.
12:58I've got nowhere to keep my vacuum cleaner.
13:00oh it's typical of you Margaret isn't it?
13:02I'm about to make a real psychic breakthrough
13:04and all you can think of is where to put your vacuum cleaner.
13:06it's enough to discourage the most optimistic
13:08researcher it really is.
13:10oh oh oh oh
13:12it happened
13:14suddenly it happened.
13:16what did?
13:18it dropped didn't you feel it?
13:20they're here. suddenly they're not wet again.
13:24oh look now I dropped a stitch.
13:26nothing.
13:28I'm sure now. this is the place.
13:30I'll get my pictures
13:32if I have to come here every day.
13:34every day?
13:36keep it back. it will not be worth your buckles if you do that again.
13:38well well
13:40well well
13:42and how have you been keeping?
13:44I've been well. it's all well.
13:46sorry to hear that.
13:48oh very.
13:50what's up?
13:52I get these terrible headaches.
13:54what sort of headaches?
13:56hey!
13:58he said
14:00he said what sort of headaches?
14:02splitting headaches.
14:06poor old chap.
14:08that ain't all.
14:10no I didn't think it would be.
14:12the wound in my leg keeps playing up.
14:14sometimes I think I'll never walk again.
14:16you'd like that
14:18wouldn't you?
14:20oh come now. don't be ridiculous.
14:22yes I was waiting for that. I expected it.
14:24that's what you think of me isn't it?
14:26I'm just a ridiculous old man
14:28what's no use anymore. a burden and uses.
14:30oh yes.
14:32he's thought well Jane.
14:34we didn't expect this at all actually.
14:36hey!
14:38I said we...
14:40I said
14:42we didn't expect you quite so soon
14:44as a matter of fact.
14:46didn't you?
14:48no.
14:50took us a bit by surprise actually.
14:54can't you stop this excessive
14:56parabulation.
14:58you should know about that by now.
15:00you were general.
15:02yes no understanding.
15:04no consideration.
15:06no sympathy.
15:08I could strangle him.
15:10how?
15:12why don't you sit down old chap?
15:14I don't want to sit down.
15:16yeah come on sit down.
15:18take the weight off your head.
15:20there's a good chap.
15:26I don't want no favours
15:28off any of you.
15:30it ain't gonna be treated like an invalid.
15:32of course you don't.
15:34we merely want you to...
15:36I know what you say about me when I ain't here
15:38so don't you think I don't?
15:40we're always very happy to see you ain't we?
15:42always.
15:44you won't get around me with a lot of cancer
15:46so it's no good you trying.
15:48I've suffered nothing but indifference
15:50and neglect at your hands.
15:52oh the mortification I've endured.
15:54oh the wretched depths of my misery.
15:56oh Gloriana.
15:58how do we get rid of him?
16:00being nice to him ain't the way Sir George.
16:02only make him worse. the more we try
16:04the gloomier he's gonna get.
16:06what do you think we should do?
16:08tell him what we really think of him. insult him into going.
16:10he likes being insulted. it's an excuse to be miserable.
16:12but we have to think of something to make him go.
16:14if that goes out does his head.
16:16yes he will. everybody does.
16:18a photograph of old Gorry.
16:20they'll run special trains.
16:22what are you whispering about?
16:24you mind your own business you miserable old decapitation.
16:26you sit there looking like you've won yourself an affair.
16:28you expect that to put up with your moaning and groaning?
16:30oh yes go on insult me.
16:32you like doing that don't you?
16:34go on.
16:36pour scorn on my affliction.
16:38I'd like to pour boiling oil on it.
16:40you hear that?
16:42did you hear what he said?
16:44you'd better keep quiet.
16:46it's not as bad and so is that simpering shade there.
16:48yes you'd like to get rid of me
16:50wouldn't you?
16:52oh yes you would yes.
16:54I'm only an old burden aren't I?
16:56a million old soldier would
16:58gave up his head for king and country.
17:00officials!
17:02nothing but harsh words and mockery every time I appear.
17:04and not once have I complained.
17:06if I want to haunt this place
17:08there's nothing any of you can do to stop me.
17:10he's right.
17:12nothing.
17:14look Gorry.
17:16there's something you should know.
17:18you've been keeping it from me have you?
17:20look you old windbag.
17:22we can't get a word in edgeways.
17:24I ain't talking to you.
17:26good.
17:28there's someone in the house.
17:30a person.
17:32oh so that's it is it?
17:34yes he's looking for ghosts.
17:36well he might be lucky mightn't he?
17:38he's a ghost hunter.
17:40yes with a machine for making pictures.
17:42pictures of earth.
17:44and that's why we want you to go.
17:46and I know why.
17:48because my picture wouldn't be good enough would it?
17:50no. yes.
17:52we don't want him to take pictures of any of us.
17:54don't you understand?
17:56I understand all right.
17:58because I'm more interesting.
18:00but a picture
18:02would bring hundreds of
18:04people to Martley.
18:06now you don't want that do you?
18:08I don't care.
18:10I only appear here every five years.
18:12what about the rest of us?
18:14you'll have to get used to it.
18:16you rusty old bucket.
18:18you see what you've done?
18:20he's coming.
18:22he's convinced we're here.
18:24what about him? he won't go.
18:26they'll see him. everybody does.
18:28we know that.
18:30get him.
18:34stop thieves.
18:36stop villains.
18:38stop thieves.
18:40where's the rest of you?
18:42bring back my body.
18:44shut up they'll hear you.
18:46put me down.
18:48where is it?
18:50the other bit.
18:52I thought you got it. we thought you had it.
18:58I'll take this.
19:00you bring that. I'll go drop it.
19:02no Jack.
19:04let's go.
19:12where is it?
19:14I don't know. what?
19:16it's not there. it must be.
19:18keep calm everyone. don't lose your heads.
19:20I want my body back.
19:22shut up.
19:24it's where the others most like.
19:26do you know where they went?
19:28I'm lost.
19:30no you ain't.
19:32look on the bright side.
19:34it'll be easier to find the big bit.
19:36how did you get separated?
19:38they bore me away.
19:40I don't know.
19:42thieves. body snatchers.
19:44I'm warning you.
19:46I'll put you in the cellar.
19:48if you don't stop
19:50you may never see your body again.
19:52you see?
19:54he couldn't move on his own could he?
19:56I don't see how.
19:58the screaming scars of hollow manor can.
20:00he blows about all over the place.
20:02screaming of course.
20:04maybe Matt got it.
20:06that's it. he followed me from the corridor.
20:08if you're looking for old Gorey's head
20:10I'll put it in the cellars.
20:12splendid.
20:14serve him right if we lock him in there.
20:16you better go and get it.
20:18where's the body?
20:20in there.
20:33hope the lad remembers where he's put it.
20:35of course he will. he's a bright boy is Matt.
20:42he's gone quiet hasn't he?
20:44perhaps he's nodded off.
20:46very quiet.
20:48are you sure he's still in there?
20:50have a look.
20:52hello Gorey.
20:54you're gonna be sensible from now on.
20:56where's the rest of me?
20:58you better go.
21:00what's it worth?
21:04Jiminy it's gone.
21:06it's gone.
21:08don't be funny Fanny.
21:10how ghastly.
21:14allow me your custard.
21:18I've got some rather bad news for you.
21:20you keep away from me.
21:22I want my body back.
21:24yes of course you do. it's understandable. you're very attached to it.
21:26were very attached to it.
21:28it belongs to me.
21:30no you can't have it.
21:32what do you mean?
21:34we're frightfully sorry but...
21:36you ain't lost it.
21:38you fiends. you evil villains.
21:42what a lot of fuss to make over a body.
21:52I've just had a dreadful thought.
21:54not too dreadful.
21:56supposing the body meets the ghost hunters.
21:58what a dreadful thought.
22:00we've got to find it.
22:02it can't have gone far on its own can it?
22:04how do I know? you go look upstairs.
22:06you two go back along the corridors.
22:08I'll go in the bell tower and the rest of you swing.
22:10I'll go with you.
22:12you stop and guard that.
22:18oh
22:20frightfully sorry about this.
22:22I know how you must feel.
22:24oh excuse me.
22:28I know how you must feel. it must be very trying.
22:32the thing is it wandered off before we could stop it.
22:34I shall hold you all responsible
22:36if you lose it.
22:38it's a disaster.
22:40it's no good on its own.
22:50I'll give it three seconds this time Margaret.
22:52Jack I...
22:54I know I don't know much about photography but...
22:56should that little black thing be over the lens?
23:00why didn't you tell me? I've taken 20 pictures.
23:04oh
23:14won't you leave immediately?
23:16I know when I'm not wanted. I'm going.
23:18I'm going now.
23:20wait. what is it?
23:22does he have to carry it? what do you mean?
23:24why doesn't he wear it?
23:26wear it?
23:28on his shoulders.
23:30what a marvelous idea.
23:34I never thought of that.
23:42oh it's looking better already.
23:46capital.
23:48bravo.
23:50how does it feel?
23:52it feels different. it's a marked improvement.
23:54is it? oh absolutely.
23:56yes it's definitely you.
23:58feels a bit wobbly.
24:00you can practice. you've got five years.
24:02so I have.
24:04do you really think it looks better?
24:06absolutely.

24:18do you have to go?
24:28well thought out Matt.
24:30yeah got a good head on his shoulders that boy.
24:32you'd have been miserable carrying your head in your hands all the time wouldn't you?
24:36quite.
24:42are we coming back tomorrow?
24:44no Margaret.
24:46I haven't the patience.
24:48besides I'm beginning to wonder if it isn't all imagination.
24:52tell you something
24:54I'll build you that rock for you on Sunday.
24:56that is a narrow escape.
25:00oh
