foreign [Music] thank you [Music] [Applause] foreign foreign [Music] oh thank you for your solution thank you here we go I'm so afraid I was going to miss it [Music] has gone up this morning but then of course the morning train would have been crowded what would the Darby you wouldn't happen to know which horse won oh let me think Dreadful business maybe Juju jujube II I don't think it was Juju they said he and the chance my computer says he does I programmed all the variables the jockey the horse the track Ambitions everything and each other came up the same jujube I'm sorry I do get a little carried away probably don't even know what I'm talking about you make it sound so exciting but I'm sure an old model head like me couldn't begin to grasp anything about computers oh sure you could oh you see it's only a question of probabilities now look imagine you have a jigsaw puzzle only some of the pieces are missing all right you pick the pieces you have and you feed them into the computer remembering that the pieces are numbers and then the computer will tell you what the missing pieces probably look like oh and it isn't a matter of absolute Circle Dude if if it were I'd be rich I'm sure you do very nicely with your winnings oh oh the Derby uh no no you see I did that just for fun I'm a researcher at MIT near Boston um I'm Luke Williams and I'm Lavinia Fullerton I gather you're on holiday this is my first tour of Europe and I am beginning to see what it is I have been missing uh you could develop other passions then just as well perhaps you know Alexander Pope says one master passion in the breast like air and serpent swallows up the rest essay on Man episode one episode two it's hard being alone I know of course I do have wonky pool my cat you see beautiful we just had such a painful ear lately and he was missing this morning I simply couldn't leave until he was found but why are we stopping I'm so late as it is [Music] well I don't see anything yeah well I can only hope they don't keep usual office hours at Scotland Yard [Music] ah Scotland Yard oh I'm sure it's safe to tell you you see our Constable at which wood is used to dealing with traffic problems and even with dogs who follow the foot base but I feel certain he is just not the man to deal with well with murder oh yes after the third time one knows at least three that know of it's the look you see that terrible mad look on the Killer's face before striking I saw it first with major Horton's wife and she died and then there was Harry Carter and Tommy pissed and I feel certain that Dr humblebee will be next and the terrible thing is that if I told him he wouldn't believe me nor would I constable but at Scotland Yard now you're sure I can't help you find a cab just to get in London thank you oh little Jimmy sees that I must be off it's such a pleasure thanks um uh Pardon Me Miss Fullerton it's enough to know that you actually wrote it I couldn't think of taking it from you please it's dedicated to my Aunt Mary and she never even saw it in that case I shall treasure it um I was probably about this murder business you know at first I feared you didn't believe me well the thing of it in terms of well probabilities now it'd be pretty tough for someone to try and get away with all those murders oh forgive me Professor but that's where you're in Era you see the person in question is just the last person anyone would suspect and so long as no one suspects you murder is easy [Applause] [Applause] welcome to London Jimmy Howard did you see those Derby results did I see them I already have a computer lined up so that you can pick me out a winner during the ask of me no no no not me no this is my first vacation in years I have no intention of sitting in a computer room and doing the same thing [Applause] because um [Applause] [Music] thank you I can't help it my curiosity I'm sorry you're Miss bulletin got herself applied to the pavement like that and I really do think it's terribly decent of you to want to go to the funeral but I have lined up a couple of absolute Beauties oh he's got a yacht and I thought as you're no longer involved with Nancy yeah but Jimmy do you know why I am no longer involved with Nancy because Nancy said to me I was more involved with my theories than I was with her and a number of other ladies who've said the same thing that's why you want to go to the funeral it's just that this lady got through to me and I'm very curious about Dr humbleby Jimmy look a lady is going to Scotland Yard she is going to identify a murderer and then she is killed now that defies the theory of probability Luke you can't believe her story this country is teeming with these Dottie old years full of diarist imaginings they're a type Stout shoes capacious handbag getting warm probably had a budgerigar as well or a cat walkie poo I rest my case oh all right I'll take you to your funeral of Witchwood then but I shall definitely expect you to come up with the Gold Cup winner of the Royal Ascot form foreign [Applause] [Music] and the end I will give unto him that is accessed to the Fountain of the Water of Life really either to overcome us shall inherit all sins thy will be his God and he shall be my son and so the time has come first to say our lost goodbye to our dear friend within your Fullerton and indeed you have all been good friends to her Mr Abbott who served her well as a legal advisor for many years major Horton and you are remembering today I know how how Faithfully Miss Fortune attended your wife in in her last illness [Music] Mr ellsworthy [Music] Mr ellsworthy and Miss Wayne Fleet of course an aria oh well I remember you were in Lavinia as young ladies with Clarence humblebee with your father too Bridget dear so ah it's uncertain of course Lord Eastfield always a fine friend to all I'm sure [Music] hey Jimmy will you slow down I want to talk about it Lord Easter field so it was you at the funeral it's lady Barbara not with you how is she oh my Mars very well spend it well come along to tea hello don't think that's possible nonsense of course it's possible it's perfectly possible no I only did you just live up the road really you mustn't insist I'm Bridget Conway Lord Easter field secretary Jimmy Lorimer and Luke Williams Gordon please I gather Miss Fullerton was a friend uh no actually we came to see somebody that's right a duty Call for Mama really an old acquaintance of hers fellow called humblebee Dr humblebee yeah I have to look there humblebee's dead and I feel certain that Dr humbugby will be next [Music] [Applause] now come on I'm the expert on probability so don't tell me that humblebee just happened to drop dead right on schedule I'm not leaving till I find out what's going on around here oh very well but you can't simply just Waltz into a pokey little English Village and start asking questions all round you'll stick out a mile we'll just have to try and think of some plausible reason for your being here but don't expect me to stay I knew you'd come after all Tang Dynasty I believe aren't they all well it's too bad about Dr humblebee well humble there was a muddle-headed old fool that means he disagreed with Gordon well he would opposed me on the question of our water supply if only you take the trouble to read my editorials on the subject but no stubborn as a mule now Gordon no we're all very sorry well you have no reason to agree with Henry my dear but you can't oppose the will of Providence years old humble big answer me a scratch I mean in three days he's dead of it I expect it had less to do with Providence than with blood poisoning he simply neglected his condition that's all his doctors often do oddly enough I shouldn't say anymore couldn't bear lady Barbara do you think you'll love me actually Mama hardly knew Dr humblebee it was Luke that was so eager to come to Witchwood was it really say you don't look like our usual witchcraft enthusiast but we get so few Americans all right you come to the right place for it of course I think all this witchcraft business is rather absurd how did you know that I was uh here to study witchcraft what else could induce anyone to come to Witchwood oh but Luke's thrilled always been keen on the stuff doing a book on how's it Go Luke about death anyway oh well ancient burial customs of course we were going to go on to Stonehenge for the Druid Festival but no I'm not certain perhaps one should Tarry I trust there are comfortable lodgings in the village lodging's nonsense you stop here of course very handsome of you Lord Easter feel to take Luke in like that I shall be quite envious would you mean that you're not staying here oh look don't forget about Ascot Mama's got his places in the Royal enclosure their own enclosure I say I don't suppose you you'll see mama's having a little party afterwards Jimmy I can't stay here no anyway so dreary of this part is Will those crowned heads elbowing one Dear Boy of course it's your stay you must stay you'll stay that was a very nice dinner yeah I've got to review the article assignments but to show Mr thank you golden soup serious about his work he owns a few weekly newspapers well it seems to know what he's doing yes it was not made alone and that's a man of a great [Music] except perhaps in the Aesthetics Department hmm because they are counting for Taste is there further all rather interesting is more like it that Gordon will redecorate his renovated the whole place bit by bit since he took it over from my family you don't mind would it matter anyway it was a long time ago [Music] they're Gordons perhaps they'll do till your friend sends your things oh for sure it's fine laughs I like the room used to be mine I'm down the hall now oh then you do live here I mean you're a secretary and his fiancee as well [Music] and now you're wondering if it's usual to live in the house of one's fiancee I have a big mouth I'm afraid you'll be on your own tomorrow Gordon and I leave early for London thank you [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] foreign [Music] what the hell are you doing hop in no thanks I sort of like being alive I never have accidents [Music] decided to stay and help how's the research coming I was just in the village and I learned something Village Focus suspicious and strangers that's why you need my help I know will simply say you're my cousin all right oh please I don't want to bore you with all this but I expect to be bored it is I am in training to be Lady of the manor I gather there have been several funerals lately yes these are other odd so many accidents let's see there was Harry Carter he was drowned in the river owned the pub naturally Gordon said he deserved it for being not only a drunk socialists and Tommy Pierce fell out of a window and Dr humblebee scratch of course Miss Fullerton another accident oh perhaps she doesn't count as she was killed in London buy a reckless driver [Applause] what are we doing back here I thought you were going to help me really I didn't understand why you didn't come here in the first place a hobby Miss Wayne Fleet the curator knows absolutely everything hello this Wednesday I brought to you Luke Williams so sort of Cousin of Mine oh yes I saw you at Paul livinia's funeral didn't I I got a dreadful cold caught it from my housemaid Amy you really should take care of that I know but I wanted to take care of this new exhibit instead though I can't see what Lord easterfield had us in mind he's so cute modern izing he must have brought these things from that laboratory he visited made me quite shiver all those dead ly germs and cultures Luke remember I mentioned about Tommy Pierce yes well this is the window he fell from while cleaning it Luke is doing a book on death rights or something witchcraft anywhere and I thought you might be able to help him how intriguing yes with quite a history that way goes back to pre-roman times of course our most famous witch was actually a warlock oh what was your name it was Harold I think it's Wayne Fleet Fleet in bed don't you don't you absolutely this can wait yes Tommy fell from that window onto the flagstones there quite horrible and you found him no it was Mr Abbott the solicitor we'd all gone off to the charity Bazaar remember Bridget poor Tommy I'm sorry to say that no one liked him very much he was an infuriating little snoop I'm sure it was very good of Lord easterfield to keep him on after Tommy was so impertinent to him well you know Gordon Such a Pity Lord needs to feel his kindness turning into tragedy like that [Music] you stay fat [Applause] Amy any what is that girl I'll go Amy we're wanting tea I'm afraid my housemate is quite a lazy girl it wasn't even off this morning when I left would love to get at my little birds yes Lavinia asked me to watch him the day she went to London he heard his bed in section I can't find Amy anywhere really Outlet you sure she came home oh yes I was awakened by a noise very late she must be in there [Music] [Music] that one there the little Skylight that's it [Music] she's all right [Music] perhaps she did it on purpose it's awfully torn up about some love affair a while back always several men on a string in fact she's just broken off with Mr ellsworthy curious [Applause] could you not touch anything sir it's only a cough mixture I prescribed it myself don't suppose you'll notice the uh needle marks on her arm Dr Thomas I did manage an Edison thank you very much can spirit I put them there myself Amy's code woodlinger and I thought she might be run down took a blood sample but there must be a half doesn't smile sound there's a quite Amy had what's commonly called floating veins always takes several tries to insert the needle properly in such cases embarrassing for you sir all that stabbing about still we don't know that she didn't make one of those marks herself do we what are you suggesting Constable drugs Miss it's a common problem these days really constable and something of an expert on narcotics if Amy were an addict I believe I'd have known always the first time eh Miss Winfrey I understand she frequented rock concerts in London oh well that's proof positive isn't it Rock concert mustn't touch things how very odd so fight the taller flattering shade for Amy [Music] foreign [Music] love your squad car I wonder what's the probability of five people dying suddenly in a town of this size six counting him and I wonder what all this has to do with your study on witchcraft I want a straight answer Luke why did you really come here [Music] here Nero [Music] must be joking I mean I wanted to murder all those people I don't know but miss Fullerton did and that is why she's dead she said the guy was crazy perhaps it was one of your warlocks at work all right all right how was I to know that warlocks were male witches let's hope that Miss Wayne Fleet is not as sharp as you want she's sharp enough to be suspicious about Amy anyway so what are we saying that some man doped Amy and then planted the compact to make it appear as if she overdose but how did he get into the room the door was locking the inside very very strong man could have gotten through that window just to shoot it wait wait wait Amy knows the guy she brings him home he kills her he leaves the Compact and then he goes out the window hmm better ah but why the compact why not a syringe careful we already lost Harry Carter off this bridge unless he was pushed [Applause] oh this whole thing is so bizarre I've lived all my life here if there really is a killer and he really is mad then I should have some idea Bridget there is a killer and if we don't do something he's going to go right on killing why course what come on Luke what come on witchcraft no no I have a few amulets and such for the tourists of course hmm interesting Mr ellsworthy yes yeah I've just got in a few Oriental things perhaps you'd be good enough to tell his lordship it's Conway I shall what is that it's a bomb use for smoking hash know that as this one's quite old it's possibly 19th century must be the sort of Affair that Coleridge would have used no no call reduced opium very different sort of thing to hashish Xanadu you know Divine madman Coleridge thanks to opium sanity is such a boar don't you think I mean it takes a touch of Madness to see life through a new and enchancing angle at least someone imagines I know very little about the artistic temperament oh you're too modest Mr ellsworthy those sketches you did of Amy Gibbs were really very good yes Wilder Amy would make a very pretty subject for anyone you think so I've always found her rather common certainly not the sort to whom a man would want to lose his heart and she'd be sure to break it wouldn't she yeah of course that so Bridget what a thing to say about poor Amy after all she's dead he was in love with Amy and he knows enough about dope to kill someone with it and he's not very well liked and that's all I know about Ellsworth brilliant Professor Williams they're all pretty well except Bridget okay sir she was unreliable Richard said she worked here until easterfield gotten a hassle with her wait a minute wait a minute what about Easter field [Music] he also had a hassle with Dr humblebee telling me [Music] no no no it's just too probable oh come on think [Music] gotta do better than this people are getting killed [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] hi oh I'm not doing that do you know I told you there the window and I took it in my schedule and you were going to vote that's all right you're much stronger than you look like please please sit down oh don't cry oh oh no I shot oh nothing in my mind you know tummy going over and with with the Amy and everything huh oh dear it's all right you've come about your research of course and I don't have some things for you I'm missing we have to talk Paul Lavinia did she say who the Killer is no no she didn't but I think you have some idea miss queen please the day Miss Fullerton was killed do you remember anything at all about that day anything unusual well let me think Lavinia came by with wonky prude asked me to watch him and of course I agreed as I was just by the fire all that day anyway I was coming down with this cool you know and Amy was in bed with her code oh yes Dr humblebee came by to look in on her in the late afternoon Dr humblebee not Dr Thomas no we don't day at the Derby I believe this sometimes treated one another's patients and Clarence Dr humblebee you know he said he might as well have a look at that ear of wonky Boos as well that was like him such a nice man oh dear that must have been the last time I ever saw him alive well should you decide to tell me who you suspect yes I'll think on it and thank you for coming to me it's a relief to know it isn't just me that I'm not crazy or growing senile quite yet senile no I wouldn't worry about that for decades yeah yes it's I quite plain even then but youth is everything isn't it who's the man why it's golden you know my family was so scandalized when we became engaged you were engaged to Lord Easter View long ago long before he was Lord easterfield such a promising boy I'm so proud of his Spirit his determination age does things [Music] still perhaps my family were wrong [Music] foreign [Music] from a colleague in Greece uzo where is his lordship by the way oh he'll be in town very late putting his paper today Gordon's a very hard worker rather admirable I think practice away much of the time it must get kind of lonely it's the price I pay for the freedom to do whatever I want I wonder if it's worth it are you asking me no no I've uh I've been asking myself that lately um you see I'm I'm kind of at the crossroads uh I've spent my whole life in the academic world and I love it it's a safe Retreat and I uh I get to do exciting and interesting work and nobody bothers me no hassles no trivial details and no human contact hmm I guess well I've never I never used to bother me ah before but uh there there is this man in my department his name is Harry Ludwig he's about 50 years old you say hi to him he's stuck for an answer Luke that's him it's not you uh well not yet anyway in any case I I have been offered a job with a consulting firm in Washington I have to confess it offers some some really exciting challenges back down I'd have to deal with people all the time I mean like the company and and the government no more nice safe theoretical stuff and which will you choose supposedly I'm on vacation in order to make up my mind and so far I have done a pretty good job of avoiding it sometimes I think I'm doing a pretty good job of avoiding life altogether Ash Manor is my retreat just as the university is yours no more gloom and doom the probability Theory would show that we will both survive that's probability Theory newly a method of deciding which event is most likely under any given set of circumstances for example if you keep looking the way that you do the probability is oh roughly 0.9 but I will forget you're someone else's fiance I see in that case we'd better change the circumstances [Music] it is after 11 thank you and they say sim becomes rampant after 11. out yes he was just over the line criminal insanity that will be the verdict for one of your witches these days Mr Williams you think so Mr well of course him legal insanity is difficult to Define one even the most dangerous lunatic may seem just like an act though well we may feel that he has lots of enemies but who doesn't what interesting how easy it can be to murder a person if you're clever you're probably experienced in that oh no no no I'm afraid my work's just the doll stuff Wills Investments anyway spring no murders around here for as long as anyone remembers hey Bridget unless someone finally finished off Tommy Pierce Tommy and [ __ ] do I have a person man tell me when the drown no no no no no that was that idiot Harry carted right in the river that can have been good for the water supply [Laughter] why Miss humblebee happy you start attack coming out I insisted she needs a devotion this humblebee my condolences and did you get the autopsy results Dr Thomas Amy died of opium derivatives it winds pretty House made to afford that's just the tragedy of it the first time is always free me yes well Amy always was too headstrong for her own good hello everyone writers for doubles Rose come on we'll challenge Bridget and Mr rib I'm not really up to it nonsense Rose do good 30 40. hey nice shot kid [Applause] Gordon are you all right fine just play will you ah nope please Bridge you must wait until I'm ready all right Gordon dear service double fault my game and set eight six it's not bad although I saved myself well played Mr better luck next time eh I say major fancy another game why'd you do that you gave him the set don't be absurd my game simply went to Pieces it happens you know no not like that I mean the first double thought of the day yes that was rather good you mean you admit it obvious my dear Watson well what the hell four you're a good player equally obvious I would have thought Gordon hates losing well terrific maybe I don't like it either but then you're not my bread and butter come on you're actually gonna marry a creep like that for money oh I'll earn my keep all right with Gordon yes if you don't mind the job description you forget to kiss me good night after a month well you can see what a child he is yes and what a cold-blooded gold digger you are well it's better than being a hot-blooded fool think I don't know what it is to love a man well let me tell you about my first fiance Johnny I cared for him like Helen he threw me over for a widow with three chins and an income that makes Gordon look like a pauper sort of thing rather cures one of romance don't you think yes I guess it could it did well good then maybe it'll cure me because I was beginning to have some pretty romantic feelings about you what oh they why don't you grow up and behave like an adult I am and that's why I'm wrong for you since you're only hot for children like easterfield [Music] foreign it must have been very hard on you when Mrs Horton died yes I thought people were kind then Bridget came every day toward the end brought down Hot House grapes from Easter fields there was awfully sporting a Bridget swallowing her Pride that way yeah she has plenty of that hmm well my wife was a wonderful woman but she did snub Bridget terribly after her father lost his money Paul Bridget's had rather a time with an expecting now being her cousin yes but she never said much about it no no well she wouldn't would she but I still say that idiot humbled me was the cause of it all anyone could see Bridget's father was dying but humble be insisted he knew how to treat him thought the poor girl would go mad with grief when he died he'll heal [Music] I uh I have to interview Tommy Pierce's mother can I buy you a drink oh no I'll not set foot in Harry Carter's place even if he is dead and gone to hell I don't think it's right his lordship given himself errors and it's not like he were real Gentry not like Miss Bridget or Miss Wayne Fleet didn't I hear something about uh what was it Albert and Amy Gibbs saying everyone to gossip I never have been but um I always said that Amy to come to a bad end I think how it brought Paul Miss Bridget's heart Amy's stealing her Johnny away that chica Chica and I'll admit it was naughty of Tommy laugh and it was Bridget over it well I think we'll all be happy to see her as Lady of the manor it's hers by right after all yes that's interesting but Mrs Pierce did I hear you say Amy stole Bridget's fiancee [Music] oh come on Luke you have to face it she could have killed either one of them for Revenge humblebee for letting her father die Amy for stating her fiancee Johnny and don't forget she lied to you about that she said he left her for original [Music] and what are you gonna do about it Luke [Music] thank you [Music] I was hoping you were still awake so I could say that I'm sorry about this afternoon accepted I wanted to say I think you're making a great mistake going for Easter field when you could have me but there's no accounting for taste and I need your help pose any of this could have waited till morning oh it could but I wanted to test your reactions to stress how am I doing you pass now will you go somewhere with me tomorrow I can do anything I want [Music] remember thank you but now he's got the wind up all this wants to stop him laying the blame on me I don't like being questioned but there's really it was nothing you needn't concern yourself but he has to be told him but please be good enough to let me do it in my own way we'll make it soon or I can tell him myself that would be very foolish with it [Music] you're certain that your friend Jimmy said to come here you are so beautiful when you're perplexed [Music] Luke what are we doing here huh we my dear are going to find out who the Killer really is you're joking no I'm not we are going to get the help we really need now if you will just sit down after yesterday I decided it's much too complicated for us to figure out by ourselves so I am going to program everything we know about the murders into the computer and it is going to tell us the name of the murderer you are joking Bridget this is my bread and butter it's just a question of relative probabilities if we program it properly now here are the names of the six victims what does it say well it is asking how the victims were killed and we don't know that in all cases at least we know what killed do you ever start to think how smart the killer must be killed every one of them in a different way I know it's terrifying motives no that's a toughie but I just input the Classics for now and hope that we hit it you know lust greed fear what else Revenge huh opportunity that means who was in the right place at the right time I suppose but there's no way to know that except in the case of Miss Fullerton would you agree that whoever killed Miss Fullerton probably killed all the others yes but how do you know who could have killed her because she was killed on Derby day and we now know who was absent from the village on that day that's why you were asking everyone about the derby oh Luke you are clever our leading candidates first Abbott the attorney a womanizer ellsworthy probably the last person to see Emmy alive major Horton whose wife died mysteriously and Dr Thomas who knows all about drugs there must be others well I did check up on a couple of other people there's me of course I was in London that day two do you mean with easterfield sorry to disappoint you but I know where Gordon was but you don't know where I was Bridget I don't think you understand I'm not keeping a list on everybody and which would you know just those I have every reason to suspect thought perhaps you did suspect me you said I was a cold-blooded gold digger why not a cold-blooded Killer Hey I said I was sorry and after last night that's why I want you to be sure I guess you think I'm playing some stupid little game or something I happen to believe in this stuff and I'm very damn good at it I'm sorry it just all seems so fantastic to me no no no you want your name in I'll put your name in okay now we're ready at least I am are you for what to find out who the Killer is are you ready oh Luke [Music] thank you cheers thank you boy if you could have seen the look on her face when her name popped up on that computer and I thought Gordon was a child really Luke you have the most peculiar sense of humor that'll teach you to make fun of my work shouldn't I offer after marvelous computers still could come up with a name am I to understand that I have put the entire resources of Oxford University at your disposal so that you can play a joke on this poor girl it's not a joke Jimmy to say Bridgette's murder I don't know anything for sure I just know that I had some pretty good reasons for suspecting her so I I thought that if I if I had her name flash on that screen she'd come on glue she'd tell me everything I I I'm beginning to remember now why I don't get involved with people okay old friend you've got to give up all this sleuthing nonsense and go to the authorities Jeremy I'm in love with her well done but if you know she's guilty I don't know anything for sure right now it's all speculation I don't know but I am going to have a talk with the one woman who really knows the truth who is it Miss Wayne please Luke Williams oh Mr Williams someone tried to kill me on my way home I stopped to give those petunias a bit of water I was simply standing here when this thing who is passed by head from up there I give you dare touch it you didn't tell anyone that was so frightened I went straight home ellsworthy don't like our lives you're fired you understand what's more you're gonna regret this don't worry I'm off and it's you all gonna regret this you you stupid idiots annoying I'm sorry you should have to wait in such a disgraceful scene but that man goodness happening I've just dismissed Rivers what happened what did he say to you nothing my dear that need be repeated to the pack of filthy lies how dare he talk to me like that you really must try not to get done something very serious will happen to that young man you mark my words yes yes sure [Applause] look what is wrong with you nothing nothing is wrong anymore and that's the wonderful part I love you and everything is okay now when you wait a moment you've got me so confused I can't think all right all right and you'll just take one thing at a time number one is that I love you and number two is that I've been absolutely wrong about everything I really do know who the murderer is now she knew Miss Wayne Fleet knew it doesn't matter because I know now it's Ellsworth Ellsworth yes yes I will explain all of this to you later but right now I have to see the constable look wait maybe you're wrong about Elizabeth no no I know what I'm doing may I borrow your car oh I'd take care of Miss Wayne Fleet if I were you she's a little shook up and I really do love her [Applause] you don't believe a word of it Williams isn't it yeah well Mr Williams I do appreciate your concern and it's a colorful story heaven knows but you see sir here in England we really do prefer something in the nature of solid evidence before we go about to rest in people solid evidence what do you call that I saw it in ellsworthy's shop yeah well it certainly is uh certainly solids at any rate isn't it sir and no end of fingerprints I'll wager but how can you ignore victims real evidence [Music] thank you [Music] I've come to tell the truth [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] thank you [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] oh anyway it's all right it's okay it's all right maybe I want to go back inside oh there's no time for the joke I thought he might have killed you there's one you know one one of my one hey if you really want me I really want you Luke listen if you knew What I've Done simply out of Pride I've had the past rule me as if which would the world I don't want to be Lady of the man I'm not lately I just want love [Music] I know truly feel that that's why I want to get right away from here before the past oval films me completely [Music] but I want to go right away you will come with me to talk to Gordon won't you tell me okay the shelter [Music] dead struck down by Divine rough a remarkable Theory lord easterfield well the Lord moves in mysterious ways you know does he indeed her well how can you doubt it Rivers abuses me and what happens where is he now Gordon please come into the house with me the word according to easterfield yes he's a riot isn't he almost as funny as I am it's too bad Rivers isn't alive to enjoy it oh I take you quite serious now sir quite serious indeed except on one point ellsworthy is not your man foreign hands they were covered with blood ah it was you broke into a shop last night I expected to be lodging to complaint against you once his hand clears up he uh cut it you know changing the tire outside the uh witch's head in plenty of witnesses to it then ellsworthy couldn't have done it this might be interesting to you by the way the CID tell me that the car that killed Miss Fullerton has now been identified it was a large maroon car chauffeured rivens a man in the crowd phoned last night and gave the license number he hadn't actually seen it you understand but the woman beside it had so she gave him the number only wasn't sure he had it right well did he or didn't he did but the chauffeur had an alibi and the car belongs to one of the Gentry so that was that however however sometimes it's difficult to see what's right under your nose but you said the chauffeur had an alibi on Derby day he drove his charge to London but then he was given the afternoon half and when the car was returned it had a damaged front bumper how do you know all this he was asked to fix the bumper on the sly which being a loyal thought he did and when he was questioned he lied Bina loyal sword but I don't see please please Mr Williams you're missing the best part when uh despite his loyalty he was dismissed he came straight and told all or bloke he had no notion of any connection with Miss Fullerton's death he thought the car had been in an accident which had gone unreported then it was uh be at the station at midday [Music] Luke what did he tell you nothing nothing you don't already know please believe I didn't really know not for certain I kept hoping it wasn't Gordon but it is why did you listen to your family why don't you just marry him anyway no you don't understand I would have defied them I would have defy the world oh it all sounds so absurd you see I had a little pet Canary moonlight and Gordon Gordon couldn't bear it somehow that I could love anything else even a little bird and one day he just snatched him away from me and rung his neck right before my eyes and uh and that was when you broke off the engagement could never forget how he seemed to enjoy it but the years passed and and I never saw him do anything like that again oh we'll keep us always hot tempered and proud but then these accidents began happening and he began to talk about Divine Justice and retribution he raved on and on to me about how people had to be banished for their sins against him that's what he said about rivers oh Mr Williams I haven't known what to do thought a hundred times of trying to talk to Bridget warn her somehow that you see how that would seem to her well you don't have to worry about it anymore because they're on to him now and besides Bridget has already decided to leave him leave him okay we've got together away don't you see what he might do a full flavoring elsewhere they brought these days ago you're most anxious to see them yeah lovely indeed Now where's the other one that must have been a pair gold knife is so ashamed you're taking the news so well you've ever right to be furious with me oh isn't that a beauty perfect workmanship and what an edge Bridget you've heard Bridges decided to go off with Mr um this fellow here so they won't be with us long I always feel I'd like to offer my apology if you'll accept it it wasn't my intention to take Bridget away from you the fact of it is we fell in love yes wow I only hope it is love you're after and not the fortune it'll come to Bridget one day oh Gordon we've been all over that I don't want your money it's not your decision Bridget I know how they all sneered at me claim that I only prospered at your father's expense and I'll not have it I had intended to prove them all liars by doing you the honor of marrying you as well as leaving you my estate come to that my dear may not be a problem anyway since no doubt I'll outlive you both of you God listen if you're threatening us threatening you how absurd it's nothing to do with me you know I'm on the instrument of a higher power Gordon please don't start it's happened every time that wretched Pierce boy Lydia Carter humblebee Amy Rivers all my enemies cast down and exterminated but you understand don't you ignore it of course of course I understand that I'm certain you're right but you know Gordon deal you've let yourself get upset upset or nonsense son I'm feeling perfect it's amazing isn't it they all die come on let's get out of here I'll just get my back and go well what are you going to do let them go on killing people you can't protect him anymore Gordon is childish and he's pompous and he certainly has a temper but Luke deep down he is harmless I promise you the man wouldn't hurt a fly oh yeah well he sure as hell would choke a canary a canary that's why Miss Wayne Fleet broke off their engagement he killed the canary she said that Miss Wayne Fleet said that yes she said that and then there's also the car not that you didn't suspect that already what about the car Bridget he ran down Miss Fullerton in the roles I don't believe that a woman in the crowd saw the license number I'm sorry I don't mean to be rough with you look I have to get the Constable reads office the Constable already knows about Gordon yes now are you coming with me what I need a little time to pull myself together [Music] if I could meet you somewhere at Miss Wayne fleets I'll meet you there later Luke yeah I hope the Constable would be discreet about this well it's obvious now that Gordon will do anything to avoid public humiliation if we trots this out and makes a big show Gordon might even kill himself rather than face it [Music] I can hardly believe it Gordon a murderer I felt certain dude but now that I've had time to reflect more currently well do things for a moment how cleverly is all done and whatever our feelings forgotten let us admit that he does not have the kind of devious intelligence it must have taken to manage all those murders but it's pretty straightforward isn't it take Carrie Gardner he did laugh at Gordon and in public too and shortly afterwards he drowned and Thomas case was similar and Paul Rivers built at the very Gates rather obvious perhaps too obvious almost perhaps as if a very cunning person were trying to make it seem that a less cutting person had done it why Bridget what's the matter nothing I'm fine would you have upset you what about a night [Music] a nice good [Music] a walk yes Luke won't be finished for a while yet that should give me just enough time Lord easterfield looks guilty all right but then perhaps that's precisely what someone is after someone will find it profitable to get Lord needs to feel out of the way even to seem dead if there were such a person why would they kill all those people why not just kill Easter View too risky especially if the person was someone close the Lord easterfield well then perhaps we should question Miss Bridget Conway I'm sure if you'll come up with some answers for us no no your name is Wayne Fleet you may be on to something about Gordon and the murders for some of them must have taken some quite brilliant planning to say nothing of nerve yes you do see Amy for example she certainly wouldn't have let Gordon put a needle in her arm well but there are other ways to kill a person with Heroin I read up on it afterwards did you how very thorough of you and bridges surely it can't have been a simple matter to induce blood poisoning in Dr humblebee of course Gordon could have learned of such things from his visit to the laboratory what about lady Horton she died long before Gordon went to that Laboratory are we to believe that he really knew how to poison Those Grapes himself what grapes by The Grapes he sent from his thought house you took them to Lydia yourself didn't you Bridget yes so I did wasn't aware you knew that Miss Wayne Fleet you must tell me what else you know [Music] Why So Silent Miss Wayne Fleet I'm waiting to hear the rest I don't know anymore I don't really know anything it's all just speculation probably quite foolish foolish oh no you were never foolish you're quite clever in fact maybe almost as clever as the Killer I don't think you realize what you're saying you look foolish enough alright problem is Wayne Fleet in her proper little gloves you wear them everywhere Don't You Bridget you must stop this why do you walk through the fields in gloves oh [ __ ] white woman whom nobody loves where did I hear that can't remember but it fits you perfectly because nobody does love you Miss Wayne Fleet no but he doesn't nobody ever will you think Gordon did but you're wrong you never had him you never had anyone or anything except that cleverness of yours and that cleverness could get you into trouble couldn't it Miss Wayne Fleet [Music] [Applause] [Music] everybody else [Laughter] [Music] I say [Music] what you doing to miss Wayne Fleet she's admitted everything admitted it yes my son she wouldn't be satisfied till she'd given us every detail yes it was awful she was so proud of her cleverness I know I try to play on that to get a confession out of her and she was going to tell me just before killing me that was to be your final crime Gordon killing me because I was leaving you that's why she asked you to meet her in the meadow at midday I suppose you'd be found there with my body and your dagger how on Earth did she get hold of my dagger oh she stole it this morning off the table it still had your fingerprints on it of course her proper little gloves foreign you know she once killed her own pet Canary just because it picked her I simply couldn't feel the same about her after that it was you that broke off the engagement I told you how tender-hearted he is when you reported to me that story about the canary I knew Miss Wayne Fleet must be lying to make Gordon look guilty smart girl it's really just a matter of knowing a little about human nature Luke perhaps that's why your famous computer couldn't come up with the right answer no don't blame the computer I didn't program Miss Wayne Fleet as a suspect or don't feel badly about it Mr Williams no she even took me and had me convinced that the almighty was wreaking Vengeance and all my enemies they didn't altogether a bad Theory but what I don't understand is this how did my roles come to be identified as the car that bowled over Miss Fullerton because I had the rose on Derby Day that's why I knew it couldn't be you Gordon and you bash the fender Miss Wayne Fleet knew missed Fullerton was on to her so she followed her to London she saw a chance and pushed Miss Fullerton under a passing car the driver of the car failed to stop so she simply gave your license number to a man in the crowd some are obvious but what about humblebee for example now when humblebee went to visit her Miss Wayne Fleet run her scissors into his right hand and then insisted on bandaging him but first she infected the bandage with discharge from wonky pools here good Lord and she was a kidney and the others she uh she killed Lydia Horton with Garden spray on the grapes little by little and then the night that Amy came home from London Miss Wayne Fleet brought her a nice cup of tea loaded with Heroin imagine the old witch doing all that just because it's lordship jilted her so long ago all for Revenge yes her one master passion swallowed up the rest uh essay on Man episode two houses but it is hard to believe that so much love could turn into so much hate is it excuse me foreign [Music] still like your squad car we have returned to the use of the bicycle in the interest of economy environment and if I may say so to her efficient policing [Music] thank you Gordon's already hard at work on his next series of articles famous female criminals throughout the ages he says he's far too busy a man for marriage anyway good does that mean you're going with me how could I possibly go off with a man who thinks me capable of murder and loves you anyway I guess I just couldn't believe that I could get that lucky to have what I want to have you too improbable for you well at least you know the worst about me that'll account for something do I no more questions no more Curiosities all right where did you go on Derby Day I went to see Johnny Johnny you're kidding I thought he was no good I thought he jilted you he was he did I just wanted to be sure that's all I took one look at him and I realized was an idiot I'd been and I left seem to have a habit of choosing the wrong man haven't I [Applause] mean hello should I just pop by make sure you were still alive I hope so suspended and we've just got time to make the Royal Alaskan meeting if we hug Jimmy asked us not for another week quite just enough time for you to work out who's going to win the Gold Cup whether you're coming well are we let me rephrase the question will you marry me there's one thing I think you should know I made God can catch me out of his will now I know the worst about you thank you [Music] [Applause] good morning
