00:00:30I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do, I don't know
00:01:00I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do, I don't know
00:01:30My darling, it's alright, my poor neurotic darling
00:02:00My darling, it's alright, my poor neurotic darling
00:02:07My darling, it's alright, my poor neurotic darling
00:02:12My darling, it's alright, my poor neurotic darling
00:02:19Barbados, miles of glorious beach
00:02:24Fifteen miles from the nearest town
00:02:28Hmm, that should suit her, suit me too
00:02:31Sir?
00:02:32Fifteen miles from the nearest town, from the nearest shop
00:02:36My wife thinks she's married to a police commissioner when she gets near a shop
00:02:41Compulsive buyer
00:02:43But fifteen miles from the nearest town
00:02:46Oh, all shopping facilities within the hotel itself
00:02:51Well, it's lucky I can't afford this holiday
00:02:57Oh, it'll have to be somewhere else
00:02:59Sahara Desert, not many shops out there, that's the feature of the place
00:03:03No, it'll have to be the same place as last year, Spain
00:03:07I like Spain, plenty of authority in Spain, and evidence too
00:03:13You don't only know it's being policed, you can see it running like a tight ship
00:03:19Yes
00:03:23Just who do you think you are?
00:03:25What do you think, Inspector? I know
00:03:27Brooke, Arthur Brooke, Superintendent
00:03:33Oh, sorry, sir
00:03:36Communication would seem to be somewhat lax in this department
00:03:39Well, I've heard of you, of course, sir, it's just that I've never had the pleasure of meeting you before
00:03:44Well, I'm not talking about me, Inspector
00:03:47I'm talking about Garrard and Filton
00:03:49Oh
00:03:51They're out
00:03:53Pull!
00:03:58Pull!
00:04:01Pull!
00:04:05Pull!
00:04:07Pull!
00:04:23Pull!
00:04:25Pull!
00:04:27Pull!
00:04:29Pull!
00:04:31Pull!
00:04:33Pull!
00:04:35Pull!
00:04:37Pull!
00:04:39Pull!
00:04:41Pull!
00:04:43Pull!
00:04:45Pull!
00:04:47Pull!
00:04:49Pull!
00:04:51Pull!
00:04:53Pull!
00:04:55Pull!
00:04:57Pull!
00:04:59Pull!
00:05:01Pull!
00:05:03Pull!
00:05:05I want radio control established in that room
00:05:07Keep one wavelength exclusively for this operation
00:05:09Inform all radio cars, I want a list of all available men, a deployment roster
00:05:13And, Sergeant, we'll have to get a better scale map than this, you know
00:05:16I want every tree and every pathway to be clearly defined
00:05:19When you've done that, Sergeant, you might set me up a bed in the back room somewhere, would you?
00:05:23Hello? Yes
00:05:26When?
00:05:28You sure?
00:05:30Right, thank you
00:05:34It's like one of those films
00:05:36One of what films?
00:05:38Those films
00:05:40Where somebody panics, turns a perfectly good organisation on its head, and disrupts the whole system
00:05:46Panic, eh?
00:05:47Well, I think so
00:05:48All right, it's Garrard, and Filton
00:05:50But they're just two men
00:05:52Well, just exactly how would you go about it, Inspector?
00:05:54The usual way
00:05:56Send out a call to all men, surround the area, find the criminals, move in, make an arrest?
00:05:59Yes
00:06:00I suppose you'd like to make the arrest yourself, would you? Get your picture in the papers?
00:06:03This is my division
00:06:05Yes, yes, in fact, I couldn't agree more with you, Inspector, you're absolutely right
00:06:08In fact, I'm glad you volunteered
00:06:10We'll be fine, Garrard
00:06:12You can go out and bring him in
00:06:14But be very careful of the gun, won't you?
00:06:16Yes, they've stolen a double-barrelled shotgun
00:06:19And it's now in the hands of Mr. Garrard
00:06:21As you know, Inspector, he's a certified psychopath
00:06:24Now, I don't want to panic you, Inspector
00:06:26But from this moment on, the whole community's at risk
00:06:33Taxi?
00:06:35Where to, miss?
00:06:36Spearbridge
00:06:37Spearbridge
00:06:47I'm sure they're still in the same neighbourhood, sir
00:06:49It's just a question of flushing them out
00:06:51That's why I'm making the request
00:06:55Sir, we're not just talking about any prisoner
00:06:57We're talking about Garrard, who's a psychopath
00:07:02Yes, I know he's got Filton with him
00:07:03Filton is small fry, but Garrard is not
00:07:05He's a killer, he's got everything
00:07:07He's got a gun, he's got a gun
00:07:09He's got a gun, he's got a gun
00:07:11He's got a gun, he's got a gun
00:07:13He's got a gun, he's got a gun
00:07:15He's a killer, he's got a gun
00:07:16He's got a gun, he's got a gun
00:07:19But I can't...
00:07:22Yes, sir
00:07:24Thank you
00:07:26He's agreed
00:07:27We can arm the men
00:08:15Hilary, you're drinking too much.
00:08:19I need a drink.
00:08:21A pill would be more sedating.
00:08:23As your doctor, I...
00:08:25Doctor!
00:08:27I'm the man who loves you very much.
00:08:32Hilary, I'm worried about you. You're very close to cracking up.
00:08:35No!
00:08:37After all this time, I know you.
00:08:39I know you best.
00:08:42Did you do everything up there?
00:08:45Oh, yes, all the little chores I tended to.
00:08:49All the domestic chores.
00:08:53Isn't that what I promised you? There'll be no worries on your shoulders.
00:08:57Trust me.
00:09:00And later tonight...
00:09:03Who can that be?
00:09:06Oh, we're not expecting anyone, are we?
00:09:08So the best thing is to answer it and find out.
00:09:11But...
00:09:12Take one.
00:09:38There's something that doesn't seem to be in it.
00:09:56Who else is in the house?
00:09:59No one.
00:10:02Come here.
00:10:09I said, who else?
00:10:13Nobody.
00:10:16That's good.
00:10:18That's nice.
00:10:21Frank!
00:10:23Don't panic.
00:10:25As long as we do as they say, they won't harm us.
00:10:27Oh, that's really clever.
00:10:30Eh?
00:10:32He's a mind reader.
00:10:34Check the house.
00:10:37It's not that I don't trust you.
00:10:39My motto is, trust everyone.
00:10:42But cut the cards.
00:10:43Who are you? What do you want?
00:10:45His name is Gard.
00:10:46Garrard!
00:10:48The name is Garrard.
00:10:50And the other one is Filton.
00:10:52You've been listening to your radio. That's right, we're famous.
00:10:55I should have said notorious.
00:10:57Well, whatever.
00:10:59The thing is, people are talking about us.
00:11:02How did you know I was Garrard?
00:11:04I haven't had time to put out a picture yet.
00:11:05There was a description.
00:11:07Tall, dark, and handsome.
00:11:12Now, they can't have slipped through the net.
00:11:14Garrard and Filton are on foot.
00:11:15They can't have had more than a ten minute start.
00:11:16Most of the roadblocks were established within twenty minutes.
00:11:18Fifteen, some of them.
00:11:19That's right.
00:11:20Nevertheless, there's not been a single report of a sighting.
00:11:23Nevertheless, they are in there somewhere, Inspector.
00:11:26Those roadblocks are tying up a number of my men, Superintendent.
00:11:29Things are getting difficult.
00:11:30Yes, and they're going to get a downside. More difficult, aren't they?
00:11:33A few policemen are going to go without leave.
00:11:35A few lucky motorists are going to go without being booked.
00:11:37No, Inspector, I'm sorry.
00:11:39They're still in there.
00:11:40Garrard and Filton, hiding out, waiting.
00:11:43They're in there somewhere.
00:11:45I won't have a single roadblock lifted.
00:11:47I want more men.
00:11:48More men?
00:11:49Yes, I want to double up on some of those roadblocks.
00:11:51Double up?
00:11:52Inspector, I want every single thing and every single person checked and rechecked.
00:11:55I don't want as much as a mouse scurrying out of that area.
00:11:58Or in.
00:12:10Your countryside is really something.
00:12:12Yes, miss.
00:12:13Except when the weather turns bad, they say around these parts,
00:12:17if you can see the skyline, it's going to rain.
00:12:20And if you can't see it, it is raining.
00:12:23Oh, it looks as if we're going to have some rain today, too.
00:12:42Good day, sir.
00:12:43What's wrong?
00:12:44Just a routine check.
00:12:45Routine?
00:12:46Where are you heading?
00:12:47Lady's going to Spearberry.
00:12:49What's all this about?
00:12:50Spearberry.
00:12:51Don't stop for anyone, sir.
00:12:52That's all.
00:12:53Hitchhikers, anyone.
00:12:54Don't stop.
00:12:55Maybe if I ask, what is going on?
00:12:57A couple of convicts have escaped, miss.
00:13:00Two hoods on the lam.
00:13:02I understood convicts.
00:13:03Are they dangerous?
00:13:04Oh, I doubt if they're in the area anyway.
00:13:06Probably miles away by now.
00:13:07Don't stop for anyone, sir.
00:13:08That's all.
00:13:09Yes, I know, miss.
00:13:10Us British coffers are wonderful.
00:13:21Maybe, maybe you'd rather turn back, miss.
00:13:36It took three months to arrange this interview with the Hensons.
00:13:39I can't give it up now.
00:13:40All right.
00:13:41Hey.
00:13:42Where are you at?
00:13:44It's all right.
00:13:45There's no one else here.
00:13:46That's nice.
00:13:47That's a good start.
00:13:48You were telling the truth then, Mr., uh, Mr.?
00:13:59Doctor.
00:14:01Doctor Henson.
00:14:05Oh.
00:14:06Doctor.
00:14:07Eh?
00:14:08Oh!
00:14:10Doctor, eh?
00:14:13Oh, that could come in handy.
00:14:16We might be here some time.
00:14:18And I've...
00:14:20I've got this...
00:14:22terrible pain...
00:14:24in my big toe.
00:14:26I've had it ever since I was a kid.
00:14:29Perhaps you could advise me on that.
00:14:32We'll do whatever you say.
00:14:34Yes, of course you will.
00:14:36Car? In the garage?
00:14:38Yes, in the garage, with a full tank of petrol.
00:14:41Take it, take it and go!
00:14:46We don't want it.
00:14:48Not just yet, anyway.
00:14:51You reckon you can get it working, then?
00:14:53Yeah.
00:14:55Fix it up with a car battery.
00:14:57Well, go on, then.
00:14:59Get it working.
00:15:06Keep your head down out there.
00:15:32Your wife looks pale.
00:15:34Doctor.
00:15:38Why don't you sit down, Mrs Henson?
00:15:42Sit down.
00:15:56When Filton gets back...
00:16:00we will make you...
00:16:03really comfortable...
00:16:05Mrs Henson.
00:16:20You keep yourself in good shape, then, Doctor?
00:16:23Eh? No flab?
00:16:26Of course, I'm probably a little bit heavier than you, but there's not much difference.
00:16:29You know, one of the features of prison life...
00:16:32is the absence of the kind of luxury that a man of my background appreciates.
00:16:35You know what I mean? Hmm?
00:16:37Well cut suit.
00:16:39The snap of cuff.
00:16:41The feel of linen against the skin.
00:16:43Uh, you do have...
00:16:45a linen shirt.
00:16:50Well, when Filton gets back...
00:16:52we will trot along to your wardrobe...
00:16:55and sort out some gear.
00:16:57The linen shirt, I insist upon.
00:17:00And a silk tie.
00:17:02Ah!
00:17:05Nothing...
00:17:07too bold.
00:17:16You see how...
00:17:18innocuous I am?
00:17:20Eh?
00:17:22I could demand...
00:17:24anything.
00:17:28But all I ask...
00:17:30is the feel of something nice...
00:17:35against my skin.
00:17:40Are you a patient, then?
00:17:42Henson, you said?
00:17:44The only Henson I know in these parts is Dr Henson.
00:17:47Heart specialist.
00:17:49Oh no, it's Mrs Henson I'm going to see.
00:17:51Oh, Mrs Henson.
00:17:53Oh, I've lived with her once.
00:17:55She comes from a title family, you know.
00:17:57Very wealthy.
00:17:59That's why I'm going to see her.
00:18:03I'm a journalist.
00:18:05Mrs Henson has one of the finest collections of posters in the world.
00:18:08I'm going to do a feature on them.
00:18:10Posters?
00:18:12Theatrical advertising.
00:18:15Oh, posters.
00:18:18They're valuable bits of paper.
00:18:21Very.
00:18:22Some of the really early ones are priceless.
00:18:25But I expect she keeps those safely locked away.
00:18:39Don't worry, Doc.
00:18:41I told you we'd make your wife comfortable.
00:18:43I trust you.
00:18:45I also told you I trusted you, but you see, she is my insurance.
00:18:48Because while you and me are downstairs relaxing
00:18:50or talking about the weather
00:18:52or politics or that big toe of mine,
00:18:54she'll be up here
00:18:56with Filton looking after her.
00:18:58And he'll do that very well, won't you, Filton?
00:19:00For God's sake, you...
00:19:02I told you to fix that radio.
00:19:04If she's harmed...
00:19:06She will be fine, just as long as you do what you are told.
00:19:09Move.
00:19:14Filton will be looking after her
00:19:17all the time.
00:19:20Oh, no.
00:19:26I'll look after you, Mrs. Henson.
00:19:31That's why I was inside.
00:19:33For looking after the ladies.
00:19:37Perhaps a bit too well.
00:19:40Phew.
00:19:47You expecting any callers, Doc?
00:19:49No.
00:19:51I'll ask you again.
00:19:53And this time think about it. Are you expecting any callers?
00:19:56I'm expecting no one.
00:19:58What about the unexpected ones?
00:20:00Mrs. Smith sprains her ankle, little Johnny gets a tummy ache.
00:20:02You're a doctor, aren't you?
00:20:04I'm not that kind of doctor.
00:20:06How many kinds are there?
00:20:08And keeping your nose clean?
00:20:10Go on.
00:20:12That's good, though.
00:20:14That you're not expecting anyone.
00:20:16That could have been awkward.
00:20:22I'd feel responsible if anything happened to you, miss.
00:20:25I'm sure.
00:20:27And nothing's going to happen to either of us.
00:20:29As long as you keep your eyes on the road.
00:20:34Did you find... I mean, there's nothing there.
00:20:37Yeah, I know the disposition of all those cars.
00:20:49I'll be in the upstairs office.
00:20:51It's a bit too crowded in here.
00:20:54Not room enough for the both of us, so...
00:20:57I'll be upstairs.
00:20:59If I'm needed.
00:21:06He doesn't really understand his kind, sir.
00:21:09Not enough time in the field.
00:21:11It's all administration, book work.
00:21:13Doesn't understand a situation like this.
00:21:15Not like you or me, sir.
00:21:17I thought you had some experience behind you, sergeant.
00:21:19Why, I do, sir.
00:21:2119 years on the force.
00:21:23Hasn't taught you very much, has it?
00:21:25Now, his kind is made up to inspector.
00:21:27Because, according to the book,
00:21:29his kind is superior to your kind, sergeant.
00:21:33Come in.
00:21:37Now, it's perfectly true that I talked him down.
00:21:40But then you see, I've worked very hard.
00:21:42They've made me up to superintendent.
00:21:44Which gives me the right, the privilege,
00:21:46and sometimes the pleasure,
00:21:48to step on people who are below me.
00:21:50But I don't make any mistakes, sergeant.
00:21:52I don't underestimate people.
00:21:54Now, I have invited your inspector
00:21:56to go in alone and disarm Garrard.
00:21:58You don't think for one moment
00:22:00that he wouldn't do it, do you?
00:22:02Well, do you?
00:22:04No, sir.
00:22:06Well, of course he'd go in.
00:22:08Because sometimes the dangerous, difficult,
00:22:10unpleasant jobs fall to his lot.
00:22:12In the way they fall to your sergeant or to mine.
00:22:14Yes, sir.
00:22:16Now, in future, when you want to knock a superior officer,
00:22:18do it for his benefit, not for mine.
00:22:24Oh, come on, get on with it.
00:22:34SIREN WAILS
00:23:04SIREN WAILS
00:23:18Police!
00:23:30You all take the back way. Run around.
00:23:32I told you to stay with the girl. Go on.
00:23:34PHONE RINGS
00:23:36Come on, Doc. On your feet.
00:23:38And get it right. Go on.
00:23:42PHONE RINGS
00:23:54Sorry to trouble you, sir.
00:23:56Yes, what is it?
00:23:58Have you been watching television or listening to the radio, sir?
00:24:00No, I've been working, as a matter of fact. Why?
00:24:02Routine check, sir.
00:24:04A couple of bad lads have escaped. There's a chance they may be in the area.
00:24:06No need to be alarmed, of course.
00:24:08As I said, just routine. We're calling on every house in the neighbourhood.
00:24:10Just in case anyone's seen anything suspicious.
00:24:12I've seen nothing.
00:24:14I've been working.
00:24:18Well, if you do see or hear anything...
00:24:20Yes, of course, I'll let you know.
00:24:22Meanwhile, if you don't mind, we'll take a quick look round the grounds.
00:24:24Well, do whatever you like, but I'm sure you won't find anything.
00:24:26SIREN WAILS
00:24:30Oh, it's the kids.
00:24:32Darling, do try to keep them quiet.
00:24:34My wife's supposed to be reading to them,
00:24:36improving their minds.
00:24:38It sounds as if she's reading them horror stories.
00:24:40Well, gentlemen, I'm sorry.
00:24:42Well, thanks for your trouble, sir.
00:24:44And don't forget, if you see or hear anything...
00:24:46Yes, of course, I'll call you at once.
00:24:48Thank you, sir.
00:24:52She didn't think she'd vanish.
00:25:00SIREN WAILS
00:25:30You did fine.
00:25:32One moment, I was going to kill you.
00:25:34The next, I was proud of you.
00:25:36But your wife...
00:25:38Oh, no, she didn't do so good.
00:25:40But she was hysterical, under stress.
00:25:42Worse.
00:25:44She was under Filton's eye.
00:25:48Filton?
00:25:52Filton!

00:26:10Yeah?

00:26:14Yeah, she's all right. She pulled the gag off.
00:26:16That's good. Come down here.
00:26:18Come down.
00:26:24You!
00:26:26You made a mistake.
00:26:28That could have been a fatal mistake.
00:26:30I should use your face for a punchbag, shouldn't I?
00:26:32Yeah. Speak up, Filton. I can't hear you.
00:26:34Yes. Yes, I should what?
00:26:36Use my face for a punchbag.
00:26:38Come on, then.
00:26:40Come on, give us a face.
00:26:46It's all right.
00:26:48I was only kidding.

00:27:10that might, it might one day
00:27:12keep you alive.
00:27:16You ought to say thank you.
00:27:20Filton...
00:27:24Thanks.
00:27:26That's all right.
00:27:28Before you go...
00:27:32cop hold of this.
00:27:42You've got to work, Bench.
00:27:44And in the garage.
00:27:46Cut the barrels down.

00:28:10I'll end up.
00:28:16It's just you and me, innit?
00:28:20Fancy your chances.
00:28:24Do you want to take me on?
00:28:28Eh?
00:28:30No.
00:28:32You're not the type, are you?
00:28:36But I bet you're ill with women and kids.
00:28:38Eh?
00:28:42Well, seeing as it's just you and me
00:28:44I'm not going to be disturbed again.
00:28:48Why don't we relax?
00:28:50Have a nice, quiet drink.

00:29:24One of our cars is off the air, sir.
00:29:26Been trying to raise it for 15 minutes or more.
00:29:28Radio's probably packed up.
00:29:30How long since you were under car, Sergeant?
00:29:32Six years.
00:29:34What did you do when your radio packed up?
00:29:36Find a phone and call in.
00:29:38What's the number of the car?
00:29:40Echo 47.
00:29:42Roving Patrol.
00:29:44Yeah, could be anywhere.
00:29:46Could be anywhere in that area, Sergeant.

00:35:36I'm sorry.
00:35:38I'm sorry.
00:35:40I'm sorry, I...
00:35:42I have an appointment.
00:35:45You're expecting me.
00:35:49I'm sorry I'm not making myself very clear.
00:35:52I guess she forgot to tell you about it.
00:35:54She? Your wife. I arranged it with her.
00:35:56My wife?
00:35:58We're a collection of posters.
00:36:00What a collection.
00:36:02Miss Lockston,
00:36:04I'm terribly...
00:36:06I'm terribly sorry, but my wife
00:36:08isn't here.
00:36:10It's quite unlike her to overlook something like this.
00:36:12She even neglected to tell me about it,
00:36:14but she's away and will be for some days.
00:36:16I'm so sorry.
00:36:18Perhaps you'll let me call you a taxi.
00:36:20But I can't go.
00:36:24I'm sorry, Dr Henson. I know it's presumptuous of me,
00:36:26but I've already arranged for my boyfriend to pick me up here.
00:36:28That's why I let the cab go.
00:36:30Boyfriend?
00:36:32Well, yes, he's somewhere on the road between here and Cornwall.
00:36:34I've no hope of contacting him.
00:36:36He's expecting to meet me here later.
00:36:38How much later?
00:36:40Well, I counted on the interview
00:36:42lasting at least two hours.
00:36:44We should be here around 4 o'clock.
00:36:48Look, my time doesn't have to be
00:36:50entirely wasted.
00:36:52At least you can let me see the collection.
00:36:54You must know something about the...
00:36:56Miss Lockston, I'm terribly sorry,
00:36:58but it's quite impossible for you to stay here.
00:37:00Excuse me, sir. Should I, uh...
00:37:02Beg pardon, sir. Should I make the tea, sir?
00:37:04What?
00:37:06Or perhaps the young lady would prefer a drink, sir.
00:37:08No, no, of course not.
00:37:12A drink would be fine.
00:37:14This way, please, miss.
00:37:16Sir.
00:37:38Sherry or whiskey, miss?
00:37:40Um, sherry would be fine, thank you.
00:37:44Do please sit down, miss...
00:37:46Miss Lockston.
00:37:58Am I drinking alone?
00:38:02Yes, you are.
00:38:04Am I drinking alone?
00:38:08Oh.
00:38:10Beg pardon, sir.
00:38:12Would you care to join the young lady?
00:38:14Yes, I think perhaps I will.
00:38:16Scotch, please.
00:38:18Oh, this must be the original.
00:38:20I've seen photographs
00:38:22of this before, but never a real print.
00:38:24And this one, too.
00:38:26You know, the last time I saw this,
00:38:28it was in a Washington museum,
00:38:30and it was only a reproduction.
00:38:34Sir.
00:38:38I must confess I was half expecting
00:38:40this trip to be a waste of time,
00:38:42but just the posters in this room alone
00:38:44make it worthwhile.
00:38:46Excuse me, miss.
00:38:48Your gentleman friend,
00:38:50will he be arriving alone, miss?
00:38:52I was merely thinking,
00:38:54should you decide to stay for dinner,
00:38:56I would like to be forewarned.
00:38:58Oh, there's no telling how many people
00:39:00Derek may show up with.
00:39:02Well, to stay for a meal anyway.
00:39:04We have to get back to town.
00:39:06You've forgotten the soda.
00:39:08I do beg
00:39:10your pardon, sir.
00:39:12That's not like me at all, sir.
00:39:14Oh, I'm so sorry, sir.
00:39:20Yes, I think there are going to be
00:39:22some widows and orphans before we're finished
00:39:24with this one. I just know it.
00:39:26Yeah, it's written all over him. A killer.
00:39:28Not just a bully boy, either.
00:39:30Oh, no nerves.
00:39:32Yes, we trained him very well, didn't we?
00:39:34Didn't you know, sergeant?
00:39:36It's all in here, if you read back far enough.
00:39:38He's ex-army.
00:39:40Crack Paratroop Regiment.
00:39:42The state trained him,
00:39:44and now he's an enemy of the state.
00:39:46It's ironical, isn't it?
00:39:48Right, get on to the local army unit.
00:39:50Tell them we'd like their help to recover one of their own.
00:39:52Radio all units.
00:39:54I want total mobility, a sweeping search.

00:40:56to Malaya, to pick up an embezzler.
00:40:58Picked up a massive dose of malaria instead.

00:41:10Just catches up on me sometimes.

00:41:16See, it's beauty to work already.
00:41:20I'm not an invalid.
00:41:22You won't have to pull any punches on my account.
00:41:28I'll remember that.
00:41:36Do you have a recent photograph of your wife I could borrow?
00:41:40It's something I'd like to feature in the magazine.
00:41:42Is this her?
00:41:44No, that's my sister.
00:41:46I don't think I do have a recent photograph of her,
00:41:48but I'm sure she'll be very pleased to send one on to you later.
00:41:52If she were here, we could get our own against the posters.
00:41:54Derek's going to have to take a few of these anyway.
00:41:56Oh, don't worry.
00:41:58The magazine will arrange for copyright clearance.
00:42:00You mean that when your boyfriend arrives here,
00:42:02he'll be staying?
00:42:04Well, only for as long as it takes to get the right pictures.
00:42:06We'll probably want one of you as well.
00:42:10American readers just love English butlers.
00:42:16Have I said something wrong?
00:42:20Oh, excuse me, Cheryl.
00:42:22I must have left the radio on in my room.
00:42:24If you'll excuse me for a moment.
00:42:26Dr Henson, I'm very sorry about...
00:42:28I'm sorry to interrupt you, miss.
00:42:30I wonder if I might just have a quick word with you, sir.
00:42:32Yes, of course.
00:42:34Please excuse me.
00:42:44I suppose you thought that was very funny,
00:42:46using my name in front of her.
00:42:48Well, you do that again
00:42:50and it will be the very last sound you ever hear.
00:42:54Now, get upstairs. Go on.

00:43:48We've got a visitor.
00:43:50You didn't get rid of her?
00:43:54Her boyfriend is picking her up later.
00:43:56And that is all right with me.
00:43:58You understand that, Doc?
00:44:00She walks out of here none the wiser
00:44:02and maybe, just maybe, you and your wife have a chance.
00:44:04Why didn't you just grab her?
00:44:06And the boyfriend too?
00:44:08When he arrives?
00:44:10That's too many to keep an eye on.
00:44:12That's too many missing.
00:44:14There must be people who knew she was coming here.
00:44:16She disappears and the finger starts pointing to this place
00:44:18and this place is clean so far and that's the way it stays.
00:44:20Have you got me, Doc?
00:44:22Have you fixed that radio, then?
00:44:24Oh, yeah.
00:44:26Oh, yeah. Well, let's hear it working.

00:45:34and report immediately.
00:45:40They'll find that car soon.
00:45:42They'll know we're around here.
00:45:44And when she leaves here with her boyfriend,
00:45:46they'll give this place a clean bill of health
00:45:48and sooner or later
00:45:50they'll start looking somewhere else.
00:45:52Oh, that's great.
00:45:56I'm very glad you think so.
00:46:00Downstairs, Doc.
00:46:02Look, I don't care what you do.
00:46:04I just want you out of here as soon as possible.
00:46:06Just as soon as things cool down
00:46:08and the radio will tell us that.
00:46:10They won't come down yet.
00:46:12They will.
00:46:14I've just told you.
00:46:16Sooner or later they will start looking somewhere else.
00:46:18Come on.
00:46:20She's been on her own down there long enough.
00:46:36Ah, there you are.
00:46:40This must be the gem of the whole collection.
00:46:42Yes, my wife,
00:46:44she spent many years
00:46:46trying to track it down
00:46:48and oddly enough she ran it down just a mile away from here.
00:46:50A sheer coincidence.
00:46:54I'll get you another drink, miss.
00:46:58I haven't finished this one yet.
00:47:00Now listen, that car must be found.
00:47:02How big is this radius, Sergeant?
00:47:04How big is this radius?
00:47:06About 10 miles, sir.
00:47:08Thank you, now.
00:47:12I know, Inspector, some of your best men are tied up.
00:47:14Well, if you want to complain about it
00:47:16you'll have to go to the Chief Constable.
00:47:18I already have.
00:47:20He agrees with my assessment of the situation.
00:47:22He agrees that you're being just a bit too
00:47:24zealous,
00:47:26too obsessional,
00:47:28and to recall all units at six
00:47:30one hour from now.
00:47:34Thank you, Inspector.
00:47:38I could do with some coffee.
00:47:40Whoever set us off chasing rainbows, that would be crazy.
00:47:44Oh, sorry, sir.
00:47:46That's all right, sir, we probably are chasing rainbows.
00:47:50Coffee's in the radio room.
00:47:56Obsessional, eh?
00:47:58Maybe he's right.
00:48:00Echo 47?
00:48:02That's Jackie Jones and Alfie Dunstan, sir.
00:48:04They're good men.
00:48:06They're deaf, men.

00:48:18Spearberry?

00:48:28Nothing.
00:48:30Henson? What kids?
00:48:32Very noisy ones. I didn't see them, but they were yelling out upstairs.
00:48:34Well, come on, son.

00:49:48Call off the Spearberry operation.
00:49:50Repeat, call off the Spearberry operation.
00:49:52Garrard and Filton have been positively identified as being in the Dover area.
00:49:54Repeat, they are in the Dover area.
00:49:56Recall all local units.
00:50:00Repeat, call off all units.
00:50:02Search to be concentrated in the Dover area.
00:50:061025.
00:50:081025.
00:50:10I knew I was right.
00:50:12We wasted all those men.
00:50:14All that time for nothing.
00:50:18Well, it's out of our hands now.
00:50:20They've taken the radio.
00:50:26They think we're in Dover.
00:50:32Oh, that'll be the gardener, sir.
00:50:34He wanted a quick word with you before he left.
00:51:02Hey, they've called off the search.
00:51:04Get away from her.
00:51:06I just heard it.
00:51:08Listen for yourself.
00:51:10Repeat to all units.
00:51:12Disperse.
00:51:14Search concentration around Spearberry.
00:51:16Garrard and Filton positive.
00:51:20It worked, Garrard.
00:51:22We can get out of here now.
00:51:24Not yet.
00:51:26It'll take some time to get all those cars out of the way.
00:51:28We'll be going.
00:51:30Yes, sir?
00:51:32There seems to be a last-minute development, sir.
00:51:34May I call you back?
00:51:36No, no, sir.
00:51:38Just an unconfirmed report.
00:51:40But we have to check everything out, don't we, sir?
00:51:42Yes, sir.
00:51:44Spearberry?
00:51:46Yeah, definitely, sir.
00:51:48They've also killed a couple of our men.
00:51:50Jones and Dunstan.
00:51:56Your gentleman friends should be arriving soon, miss.
00:52:00Derek isn't exactly famous for his punctuality.
00:52:12They've conned her.
00:52:14The American gal.
00:52:20She's expecting company.
00:52:22Boyfriend, Derek.
00:52:24Well, they don't know this yet,
00:52:26but they're all expecting company.
00:52:28I want six men, plain clothes, armed.
00:52:30And, Sergeant,
00:52:32just make sure they all know how to use a gun, eh?
00:52:38Sir,
00:52:40Alf and Jackie Jones,
00:52:42they were friends of mine.
00:52:44And Garrard and Filton are expecting the boyfriend.
00:52:48Fancy.
00:52:50Fancy.
00:52:56The Matisse is actually signed on the back as well.
00:52:58It must be worth a lot of money.
00:53:00Yes, I imagine it is.
00:53:02And this one over here
00:53:04is really quite attractive.
00:53:06Don't you find?
00:53:14You don't agree?
00:53:16Yes, I do agree.
00:53:18Would you care for a drink?
00:53:20Oh, allow me, sir.
00:53:30The whole collection's beautiful, Doctor.
00:53:32I think the Matisse is my favorite book.
00:53:36Oh, that must be Derek.
00:53:38I didn't hear her car, miss.
00:53:40Only one way to find out.
00:53:48Oh, hi.
00:53:50Derek couldn't make it, so me instead.
00:53:52Oh, hi.
00:53:54And a peace offering.
00:53:56Well, Miss Luxton,
00:53:58I expect you'll be on your way.
00:54:00I hope you'll use your discretion
00:54:02about revealing our address.
00:54:04With this collection,
00:54:06we don't want to be burgled, do we?
00:54:08I understand.
00:54:10It was very nice meeting you, Doctor, and I'm just...
00:54:12Hold it! He's a cop.
00:54:14Stand still, Filton.
00:54:16Stand still, Filton.
00:54:20All right, Gerard, leave it.
00:54:24This is the end of the road.
00:54:28Move.
00:54:30The right kneecap first,
00:54:32then the left,
00:54:34and you tumble right down into my arms.
00:54:36Do you want to tumble,
00:54:38or do you want to walk?
00:54:40Trichet.
00:54:42He killed two cops, didn't he? Two friends of mine.
00:54:44That wasn't me. That was Gerard.
00:54:46Shut up! I'm waiting.
00:54:48Don't come down.
00:54:50Don't shoot.
00:54:52It was Gerard. He killed them.
00:54:54Oh, no!
00:55:00That's nice, isn't it?
00:55:02When thieves fall out.
00:55:04Thieves and murderers.
00:55:06My wife.
00:55:14My wife.
00:55:30I knew you hadn't slipped the net.
00:55:34Sergeant, I'd like the personal satisfaction
00:55:36of telling the Chief Constable about this,
00:55:38and the Inspector.
00:55:40Oh, my God.
00:55:44She's dead.
00:55:48She's dead.
00:55:52And you killed her.
00:55:54Are you sure she's dead?
00:55:56Of course I'm sure. I'm a doctor.
00:55:58Upstairs, Trichet.
00:56:00Get these two into the van.
00:56:14Come on.
00:56:44Come on.
00:57:02Dr. Henson.
00:57:14Come on.
00:57:28You killed her.
00:57:30You can ride with her.
00:57:40Why don't you come back with us
00:57:42Yes, of course, but I'd rather like to be
00:57:44left alone for a little while,
00:57:46if you don't mind.
00:57:48I'll come along later.
00:57:50Where's the American girl, sir?
00:57:52She's gone.
00:57:54She left a few moments ago.
00:57:56She must have walked right past you.
00:57:58Well, we'd better find her, hadn't we?
00:58:00She's a material witness.
00:58:02Well, I've no doubt she'll contact you
00:58:04after she's seen her employer,
00:58:06Miss Loxson, as a journalist.
00:58:08I imagine what she's seen here
00:58:10we want her brought in straight away.
00:58:12Right, sir.
00:58:14Perhaps you'd come along and make a statement
00:58:16when you feel up to it, sir.
00:58:18Yes, of course.
00:58:40Come on.
00:59:10Hillary!
00:59:12Hillary!
00:59:40Such good fortune
00:59:52all the way.
00:59:54Then one terrible stroke of bad luck.
00:59:56I mean,
00:59:58if she hadn't seen you upstairs,
01:00:00you'd have been none the wiser.
01:00:02Or if she hadn't seen
01:00:04the body.
01:00:06But unfortunately,
01:00:08they're both.
01:00:10And when she wakes up?
01:00:14Oh, she...
01:00:16She isn't going to wake up.
01:00:28Keep your hands off.
01:00:30Haven't you done enough?
01:00:32That's not the same woman.
01:00:34Oh, come on.
01:00:36That's not Mrs. Henson.
01:00:38Phil, you saw just now.
01:00:40It's over, Garrard.
01:00:42But it's not the same woman.
01:00:44We're not going to talk our way out of this one.
01:00:46That's sound advice.
01:00:48It's not her, I tell you. This one has dark hair.
01:00:50Phil, will you look?
01:00:52That's right. Give me trouble, I'd like that.
01:00:54No.
01:00:56No!
01:00:58Yes, we must!
01:01:00It wasn't her.
01:01:02It wasn't her.
01:01:04Different woman entirely.
01:01:06We're building up
01:01:08a tricky little defence, aren't we?
01:01:10Oh, do leave off.
01:01:12What have I got to lose?
01:01:14The dead woman is not Mrs. Henson.
01:01:16Sergeant, you did see her, didn't you?
01:01:18Yes, Mrs. Henson.
01:01:20It's not her!
01:01:22Look, laddie, I knew Mrs. Henson.
01:01:24That's her there laying out on the morgue slab right now.
01:01:26All right.
01:01:28What about the other woman, then?
01:01:30What other woman?
01:01:32Pretty.
01:01:34Long, blonde hair.
01:01:36The one that Henson said was his wife.
01:01:38Who's that, then?
01:01:40We have no alternative.
01:01:42Look, I...
01:01:44We murdered my wife
01:01:46and got away with it.
01:01:48Now, when we did that, there was still an element of risk.
01:01:50I mean, all right,
01:01:52I can drive the symptoms of a heart attack,
01:01:54but there was always the risk of some nosy pathologist
01:01:56probing too far.
01:01:58Now, those two thugs have eliminated that risk.
01:02:00No one will ever question
01:02:02that she died because of them.
01:02:04No one will ever know
01:02:06that she was already dead when they arrived here.
01:02:08Look, I'm not prescribing
01:02:10any more pills for you.
01:02:12You drink this.
01:02:20Another killing?
01:02:22We have to.
01:02:24Then we'll be completely clear.
01:02:26How?
01:02:28Exactly the same plan we had for Elizabeth,
01:02:30but didn't have to use a painless injection.
01:02:32She won't feel a thing, I promise you.
01:02:34And later, when it's dark,
01:02:36we'll take her far away from here.
01:02:38She'll be found somewhere,
01:02:40and the verdict will be heart seizure.
01:02:42Then it'll be all over.
01:02:44All right?
01:02:48Good.
01:02:50Now, go and get my bag.
01:02:52There's a good girl.
01:02:54There's a good girl.
01:03:20Well, you must be feeling rather pleased with yourselves.
01:03:22He is.
01:03:24Well, the credit for the pinch will go on your record.
01:03:26You did well.
01:03:28You don't look well. Pained.
01:03:30Oh, that's how I look when I'm thinking.
01:03:32Well, give it up. It doesn't look good on you.
01:03:34Better thinking about it, anyway.
01:03:36That's the trouble, I can't remember.
01:03:38Been a long, hard day.
01:03:40Come on, I'll finish the charge.
01:03:42You go and buy yourself a drink.
01:03:44It's funny how Gerard kept on insisting about it being a different woman.
01:03:46Gerard's crafty.
01:03:48He's got something up his sleeve.
01:03:50Had to be very convincing on this one.
01:03:52Murdered two of our fellows.
01:03:54Terrorised a family.
01:03:56Not to mention one of our cousins from across the Atlantic.
01:03:58Well, that's it.
01:04:00The American girl.
01:04:02Tracy Logston.
01:04:04Well, the superintendent told me to find her and bring her in.
01:04:06And I've been putting out bulletins.
01:04:08Well, that's the usual procedure.
01:04:10But I don't have to.
01:04:12She's going back to the house.
01:04:14Why?
01:04:16Two reasons. Her boyfriend's picking her up there.
01:04:18And, I remember now,
01:04:20her suitcase was still in the hall.
01:04:44What happened?
01:04:46Don't fall, my dear.
01:04:48Don't worry.
01:04:52I'm taking good care of you.
01:04:56Just a little injection and you'll wake up feeling
01:05:00so much better.
01:05:04Wait a minute.
01:05:06I didn't fall.
01:05:08You hit me.
01:05:10Hold her. Hold her.
01:05:12Get away from her.
01:05:16I know there are new
01:05:18medical techniques these days, Doctor.
01:05:20But I never heard of this one before.
01:05:22She was hysterical.
01:05:24I was giving her a sedative.
01:05:26Oh, for God's sake. Can't you see it's over?
01:05:28Yes, I rather think it is.
01:05:30Are you all right, Miss?
01:05:34Why don't you answer it?
01:05:36I'm sorry to say
01:05:38it's probably your real boyfriend this time.
01:05:46Oh, my God.
