During the past 48 hours,

19
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,639
thick fog has blanketed
most parts of the country,

to take off or land.

to warn approaching aircraft

not only of the worst visibility
for years

that all New York planes
are coming in at Hurn?

The plane for Dublin will fly.

99
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,999
I'm afraid Dublin planes fly
from Northolt or Blackbushe,

100
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,279
not London Airport.

101

you were a Dublin flight.

As soon as we get a coach back,

00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,119
you can join these passengers
for London.

105
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,959
But I don't want to go to London.
I want to go Blackbushe Airport!

106
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,919
Excuse me. My name's Waterman.
I came in on the jet this morning -

107
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,959
How very sporting of you!

108
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,519
I'm for Dublin, too.

109
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,879
Miss, there's someone coming in
at Shannon I've simply got to meet,

110
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,359
so wherever the Irish planes go from,

111
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:09,439
you've got to get me there.

112
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,839
There are no planes leaving
for anywhere yet.

113
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:14,159
Nevertheless,
I'd feel safer being on the spot.

114
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,439
On the spot. If there's a bus
going to Blackbushe,

115
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,119
it could drop me off at Basingstoke.

otherwise.

00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,479
come to the main entrance,
please?'

158
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,159
Who's on duty and still free?
Nobody. They're all out on coaches.

159
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,479
What about Miss Nicholls?

160
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,159
Oh, she's been going
nine hours straight.

161
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,039
She's just going on leave.
She is not, you know?

162
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,839
It has half a top and no side-flaps,

163
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,199
but if you don't mind
the fog getting in -

164
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,359
For a bath and some sleep,
I'd put up with anything.

165
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,039
I don't know if that's
very complimentary.

166
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,359
I'm much too tired to work it out.

167
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,919
Miss Nicholls? I wouldn't ask if
there was anyone else available.

168
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,199
Oh. Thanks for the lift, chum.

169
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,639
Well, what is it -
lost children, air-sick grandmother

170
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:16,919
or a Pekinese with hysterics?

171
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,999
Emergency relief coach to Blackbushe.

172
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,079
Oh, much worse. Well, give me
a Benzedrine and leave me to it.

Am I still in England, do you know?

180
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,399
This is the security office.

00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,879

the main entrance.

if I don't find my coach!

184
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:02,719
You'd better get round
to the main departure hall.

185
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,759
Oh, be a pal and let me get in
through here, will you?

00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,120
Ta.

187
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,480
That's right,
you just stand there and enjoy it.

188
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,439
Never mind that. Help me. Uh!

189
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,719
Well, don't strain yourself.

190
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,919
Why they make the window
for midgets...?

191
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,200
They weren't made for that purpose.
Neither was I.

Look, I don't ask much out of life.

199
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,199
I could ask for a rise,
a bonus, danger money...

200
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,559
but I don't.
I ask one thing only:

201
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:02,559
How do I get to the main entrance?

Are you the driver of the coach?
Yes!

Well, why aren't you over at Transport?

206
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,319
Because... because...

207
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,239
I felt my way to the canteen,

208
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:14,559
had a cup of tea,

209
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:18,359
and then, in quick succession -
succession -

210
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,399
I lost my way, my bearings,

211

Will you give me Transport, dear?

Yes, that's right, Transport.

218
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,319
This would have to happen now,
just when I wanted a day off.

219
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,319
It's my grandmother - poor old soul.

220
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:43,599
Is she dead?

221
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,519
No, she's home on leave.

Hello? Transport?

223
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,079
This is Percy Lamb, relief driver.

Now, look, don't you start.

225
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,319
I don't know where you are,
I don't know where the coach is,

226
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,679
and I don't know where I am.

227
00:10:56,680 --> 00:10:58,720
Now, which would you like me
to find first?

228
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,719
Yeah... I'm in the security office.

229
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,760
I came in through the window.

230
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,719
Now what?
They say it's quite simple -

231

they say.

232
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,239
They say if I stand with my back
to the window,

233
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,159
keep going for 150 yards,

234
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,599
it's 20 yards past
the third bay on the left.

235

They say.

236
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,079
Of course, they don't want a driver.

237
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,600
They want a mathematician!

238
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,039
If they're still shouting
for me in half an hour,

tell them to send out

I'm going to Dublin, too.

317
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,239
Dublin? They'll be lucky if
they get as far as Blackbushe.

318
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,839
What's your name?
Percy Lamb, miss, relief driver.

319
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,439
All right, Percy,
let me have the key to the boot

320
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:09,959
and you can put the luggage in.

321
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,559
Look, miss! I've never been
to Blackbushe before.

322
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,519
You'll have to help me. I will.
Just turn left out of the gate.

323
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,479
Ah, yes, but how do we find the gate?

324
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,279
Via radar?
Key, Percy.

325
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,479
I know! What do you think
I'm doing, scratching myself?

326
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,399
I can't find it.
(TUTS) Ah, well, never mind.

327
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,279
There isn't much luggage.
We'll put it in the coach.

328
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,239
(KNOCKING)

329
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:31,960
(INDISTINCT)

330
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,559
And you, misery guts!

331
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,080
(INDISTINCT)

332
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,479
We've got a right one here.

333
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,119
You're gonna get yourself into trouble.

334
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,799
Well, she gets you down.
(KNOCKING)

335
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,240
Yes, you, dear. I dunno.

336
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,559
Have you seen the main gate recently?

337
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,559
You're about to go through it.
Good.

338
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,080
Well, I hope it's open.

339
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,119
Hello. Do you mind
if I hitch a ride?

340
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:06,279
Not if you want to go to Blackbushe.

341
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:07,760
I hear it's clearing out there.

342
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,199
I'm off duty. I'm trying to catch
a lift to the continent.

343
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,559
There may be a crate
going out from there.

344
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,479
It's a very exclusive party
you've got here.

345
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:19,880
Good evening!

346
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,640
(SIGHS) Well, this is going
to be a matey ride!

347
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,599
Or, er... is it?

348
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,279
I should save THAT for the continent.

349
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,239
Young man!
Are you the captain of the bus?

350
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,919
No, I'm just a passenger.
Miss, er -

351
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,639
Nicholls.
Can I do anything for you?

352
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,039
Well, surely,
the driver can go faster than this?

353
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,559
It's pretty thick, but they say
it's clearing further on.

354
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,039
Do you think it would help
if I were to walk in front?

355
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,199
Well, what a noble gesture!

356
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,039
But I could never countenance that.

357
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,239
Oh, that's quite all right,
really, if you're in a hurry.

358
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,559
What a sweet little man you are!
I shall come and sit next to you.

359
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,319
But I like to be by the window.

360
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,919
Well, I only thought, you see,
that if I was to walk in front -

361
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,919
Oh, what's that pretty book
you're reading?

362
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:02,159
Oh, that?
That's the seed catalogue.

363
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,600
Well, now, isn't that fun!
(GIGGLES)

364
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,799
You shall read bits of it aloud to me.

365
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,879
Then the journey won't seem so long.

366
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,319
(GIGGLING)

367
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,279
Did you know the only way
to kill a zombie

368
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,599
was to squirt hot wax over him?

369
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,920
I didn't.
But I'll make a note of it.

370
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,199
MAN: (OVER RADIO)
'Calling relief coach 13.

371
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,319
Relief coach 13,

372
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,559
Stiffen the crows!

373
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,640
Oi, turn it up.
Bawling like that!

374
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:40,319
My stomach went over.

375
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,399
'Is that relief coach 13?'

376
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,719
Yes, it is.

377
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,079
If I'd seen that before,
I shouldn't have taken this job.

378
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,279
Visibility's bad around Slough
but it's lifting beyond there.

'Keep in touch
if you have trouble.'

380
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,079
Right. If I get lonely,
we can play 20 questions.

(BELL RINGING, WHISTLE BLOWING)

382
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,680
And what is all that supposed to be?

383
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,120

PERCY: 'Hello? Are you there?!'

386
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,879
Close all gates
and put in a security call.

387

I want a list of all commercial
vehicles out of here.

Trouble? Bullion robbery,
someone's ripped 200 gold bars.

Please cooperate.'

Acetylene blow-lamp.

395
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,959
They bypassed the windows,
that's why there was no alarm.

396
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,719
Where's the other guard?
He's missing.

397
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,399
How do you feel?
A bit dizzy, sir. I'll be all right.

00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,479
Bring him up when he's had a rest,
will you?

Sir, I just found this,
50 yards back there.

400

Yes, that looks like the tin-opener.
Bring it in, will you? Yes, sir.

Any luck?
We're going to need more than luck.

402
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,279
This looks like the Banker?
Who's the Banker?

403
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,519
I'd like to know. So would a lot
of insurance companies.

404
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,439
If it's gold, it's usually the Banker.

Clear this road.
I want to take a tyre check.

of outgoing commercial vehicles,

I'm not worried about private cars.

408
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,159
200 gold blocks need something heftier

409
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,200
than a private car to move them.

410
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,200
Oh! (HISSES)

Look, I'm sick of this.
I haven't got a clue where we are.

413
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,599
I haven't seen the kerb
for half an hour.

414
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,599
My nose is running,
my eyes are watering,

415
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,199
and a merry Christmas
to the lot of you!

416
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,639
I'll tell you this,
if anyone else wants to have a go,

417
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,559
I'd just as soon walk in front with
a box of matches. I'm telling you.

418
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,359
I had no idea it was this thick.

419
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:01,839
Till it lifts, frankly,
I think we should stay here.

420
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,599
Stay here?! Heaven knows where
we are or where we'll end up!

421
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,239
We could take a vote.
But I have to get to Dublin!

422
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,679
And I to Shannon, but if we miss
one plane, we can take another.

423
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,439
You don't think we've passed
Basingstoke?

424
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,399
Quiet, girl!
Look here, my good man.

425
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,679
I am chairman of
the Positive Thought rally.

That may be but - There are no buts
in Positive Thought!

427
00:20:19,120 --> 00:20:21,319
The thought is the will is the deed.

428
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,119
Well, we could do with some positive
thought to find a positive kerb!

429
00:20:24,120 --> 00:20:27,199
I've had enough of your insolence.
Let me by, little man.

430
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,559
I must face up to that driver.

431
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,279
I shall report you to the Air Marshal!

432
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,599
As far as I'm concerned, missus...

433
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,720
(INDISTINCT)

434
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,519
He shall be fired.
Now, Mr Beeston, please.

00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,559
I have got a torch.

437
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,519
Perhaps it would help if somebody
walked in front for a little way.

438
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,919
I think that's an excellent idea.
We'll take it in turns.

439
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,479
Wait a minute.
It isn't up to passengers -

440
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,400
Oh, we don't mind.
I am a passenger, you know?

441
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,599
Wait. Wait, please wait.

442
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,639
What is your name, little man?
Henry Waterman.

443
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,919
Please take care, dear Mr Waterman.

444
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,599
Put on your coat, I beg of you.
And your hat.

445
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,040
Oh, thank you.

446
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:07,239
Ah, well.

447
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,000
He might, for all the world,
be Hillary of Everest.

448
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,679
I'm afraid I'm not much good at this.

449
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,039
You and me both, mate.

450
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,839
Just find the kerb and lead me to it.

451
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,719
Well, you're still on the road, anyway.

452
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,280
That's me, boy - cat's eyes.

453
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:22,639
Anyway, we're still on the road.

454
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,719
You ever read a book called
The Corpse Sat Up?

455
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,759
The Corpse Sat Up?!
Yes, it was just like this.

456
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,359
A man went off into the fog
and they never saw him again.

457
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:32,559
They found his head
on top of a scarecrow.

458
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,159
Well, I'm glad YOU came, dear.

459
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,799
Thank you.

461
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,840
You found the kerb yet?

462
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:56,240
Oi!

463
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,080
(WHISTLES) Don't mess about!

Oh, never again.
Not this game, I wouldn't.

00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,200
Hello!

469
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,719
(KNOCKS)

470
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,759
You want me?
No, I want a second torch

471
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,599
to go and find the man
with the first torch.

472
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,199
Well, he can't be far.
Mr Waterman?

473
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,679
Mr Waterman?
Well, the fog deadens sound.

474
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,799
I think someone should go
and look for him.

475
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,439
All right, let's go.

476
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,360
And someone should stay
with the ladies.

477
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:51,879
Of course.

478
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,639
Come on. Hang on to this,
and don't let go.

479
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,039
Don't worry, I won't get lost.

480
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,720
No, but I might.

481
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,799
If anything has happened
to that gallant little man -

482
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:04,879
Oh, he'll be all right.

483
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,599
You know, in the book
The Corpse Sat Up -

484
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,679
Sit down.

485
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,240
I warn you, I shall personally
sue the company on his behalf.

486
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,200
Mr Waterman?

487
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,040
Warty!

488
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,279
If you see any scarecrows,
run for your life.

489
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:22,519
Ah-ha!

490
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,039
I talked to the exchange
to see where we are.

491
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,999
Did you? Yes.
We've just gone through Slough.

492
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,239
And they say it's quite clear
past Maidenhead.

493
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:31,479
That's about another four miles.

494
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,639
That was very clever of you,
Mr Waterman, but you had us worried.

495
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,119
Worried?
Yes! Going off like that.

496
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:39,119
I'm responsible for you lot.
Oh, I say...

497
00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:40,639
We're very grateful to you,
Mr Waterman.

498
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,159
It was a brilliant idea.

499
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,159
Now, if we can get back
to the coach, we can, er...

500
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,999
Ooh, we can get back all right!

501
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,999
Just follow this.
It's the luggage straps.

502
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,479
They're tied to the headlamps.

503
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,359
Don't worry - I got it.

504
00:23:52,360 --> 00:23:54,160
Come on, follow my leader.

505
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,919
Here is the official weather
forecast up till noon tomorrow

506
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,839
and the outlook for
the following 24 hours.

507
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,160
Fog.

508
00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:15,519
(BLEEPING)

509
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,440
(ENGINE RUMBLING

510
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,519
Hey, Warty, we can go faster than that.

511
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,599
The road bends to the left now.

512
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,800
I've been bent that way
for the last hour.

513
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,039
All right, talk.
I already told 'em.

514
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:35,599
We come in off the road by mistake.

515
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,399
In all this fog,
you don't know where you are.

516
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,959
That's what I thought. Thanks.
So you hid in the fire bay?

517
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,480
We wasn't hid,
we was trying to find the road.

518
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:48,199
5'10", medium build,
wavy brown hair, thin moustache,

519
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,479
aged 42, released Parkhurst
24th of February -

520
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,839
seven years, robbery with violence.

521
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,199
That's very nearly a pin picture.

522
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:56,799
All right, so I got a record.

523
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,279
Is that any reason for the police
to persecute me?

524
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:00,840
I know nothing about it.
About what?

525
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,759
Whatever it is that's eating you.
You've got nothing on us.

526
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,240
Nothing at all...

527
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,399
...unless somebody's fingerprints
are on this,

528
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,919
then somebody may get ten years.

529
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,920
All right, take them away.

530
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,799
Wait a minute.

531
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,559
All right, I'll help you
if you help me.

532
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,079
I'll make no bargains.
Shut up, you're mad!

533
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,959
I'm not taking the rap
for a stinking hundred quid!

534
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:26,719
Who paid you?
Came by post.

535
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:27,999
Who from?
Dunno.

536
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,879
A hundred pounds comes by post,
you don't know from whom

537
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,679
but you know you've gotta go
to London Airport

538
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:32,919
and blow open a security shed?

539
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,519
It was planned that way
for the first fog.

540
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:35,960
Who planned it?
Dunno.

541
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,199
Where did the Banker say
to hide the gold bars?

542
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:40,600
We were to put them in...

543
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,360
(CHUCKLES)
Who said anything about the Banker?

544
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,039
I did. And now so have you.

545
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,719
Who is the banker?
We don't know...

546
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,559
Go on. We were to put the bars in
the luggage boot of the BAOC coach.

547
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,439
They were going to drive them out
during the fog. Which coach?

548
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,199
The one behind the security shed.
The emergency coach, number 13.

549
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,799
The relief coach? Holy smoke!
Where is coach 13?

550
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,279
Somewhere between here and Blackbushe.

551
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:04,999
Contact it. Who's on it?
Six people.

552
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,679
Get me the list.

553
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,239
How did you find out about
this relief coach?

554
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,159
We watched it for three weeks.
Where from?

555
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,120
House overlooking the airport.
Which house?

556
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,919
23 Heath Way.

557
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,879
Check it.
Calling relief coach 13.

558
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,160
Relief coach 13, come in, please.
Over.

559
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,560
Relief coach 13, answer, please.
Over.

560
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,639
They're not replying. Keep calling.
They may have switched off.

561
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,879
He can't switch off his speaker,
only his mic.

562
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,119
Well, keep at it.

563
00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:34,159
We haven't got the passenger list
for 13. Why not?

564
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:35,359
Went out in a hurry.

565
00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:37,079
This stewardess must've taken
both copies.

566
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,759
Well, who sent it out?
The duty officer.

567
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:39,879
I'd like to see him.

568
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,519
Where did you send these reports?
A man came to us to collect them.

569
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,039
What man?
I don't know who he was.

570
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,159
Can you describe him?
Yep. Go ahead.

571
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,239
Well, he was about...
Duty officer?

572
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,759
Here you are.

573
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,759
Hello, coach 13.
Are you receiving me?

574
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,280
Coach 13. Over.

575
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,559
'Calling relief coach, relief coach 13.

576
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,759
Please reply, this is urgent.
Where are you, driver?'

577
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,640
(GRUNTING)

578
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,479
Well, come on, let's have it!
What?

579
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,480
The torch, come on!
I'm not Tarzan.

580
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,120
Now, let's see what it says.

581
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,760
Well, do we know where we are?
They haven't come back yet.

582
00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:25,159
Look, Nicky.
My name is not Nicky.

583
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,399
Well, what is it?
Miss Nicholls.

584
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,719
I prefer Nicky.
That's a matter of taste.

585
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,439
Don't you think that you and I
should be on the same side?

586
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,719
Both on the inside.
Oh, now, look, for heaven's sake!

587
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,999
I'll take the torch
as soon as he gets back.

588
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,239
If you want to know, the blonde
begged me to stay in the coach.

589
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,199
The blonde?
Yeah, she was scared stiff.

590
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:43,719
What, the thriller queen?
Mmm.

591
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,920
PERCY: Oh, this again, missus.
I'm sick of this... Hello there!

592
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,719
Well, did you learn anything?
Yes - to mind my own business!

593
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,959
Percy, what happened?
Isn't it marvellous, eh?

594
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,159
Six million signposts in Great Britain,

595
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,880
and I had to pick this one!

596
00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:01,999
I know.

597
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,679
I think I know where we are.

598
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,399
Yes, I'm sure I know what's happened.

599
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,359
We took the left fork past Maidenhead.

600
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:12,199
And this should be on the road
to Bletchingdon. I know it well!

601
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,039
There's a large flower nursery
there, by a windmill.

602
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,079
I saw a windmill just now.

603
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,079
Yes. A windmill on
the other side of the road.

604
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:21,959
Then, this IS Bletchingdon.

605
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,439
Good for you. Off we go.

606
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,199
You're a very clever little man.
I protest.

607
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,519
You're submitting your passengers
to great danger. Danger?

608
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,119
Certainly - to drive a coach this size

609
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:32,199
in this visibility
is extremely dangerous.

610
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,959
Oh, nonsense!
We know exactly where we are now.

611
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,519
Thanks to clever Mr Waterman.

612
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,599
Just because we passed a windmill?
We might be anywhere.

613
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,959
Unless we've crossed the Channel,
it can't be Holland!

614
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,079
Now, Percy -
Well, he gets on your nerves.

615
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,559
Let him have a go - paint and all.

616
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:47,919
No one's blaming you, driver.

617
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,839
I just think it would be safer
to stop here.

618
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,759
No, I will book no delay.
Press on, driver.

619
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,039
Well, I'd sooner do that than park
here and get another car up my boot.

620
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,399
Well, the high street can't be
more than two miles ahead.

621
00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,839
All right, I'll take the torch.

622
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,319
No, no, please, I know I've not
been very good so far,

623
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,159
but I know the road now.

624
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,199
Of course you do, little man.

625
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,039
I'll see you're mentioned in
the next issue of Thought.

626
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,760
Oh, thank you. You're very kind.
Oh, not at all.

627
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,439
Thank you. Get your medal later.
Come on, let's get moving.

628
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:17,640
Oh!

629
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,959
One meets so many gentlemen
on these trips!

630
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,239
I went ahead because it seemed
simpler than getting out.

631
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:24,879
Well, I don't wish to...

632
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,040
(SCREAMS)

633
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,560
Are you all right?
I dropped my book, that's all.

634
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,680
Sorry. Got some fog in my gears.

635

MAN: (OVER RADIO)
'Calling relief coach 13, over.'

636
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,719
Now what?
'Coach 13?'

637
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,639
Yes.
'Where have you been?

638

Where are you, driver?
Where are you?'

Hmm... we're lost, you clot!

640
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:56,799
Listen carefully, driver.

641
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,279
Close the window partition
and let me know when you've done it.

642

'Now, look, cocker...'
Now, don't talk. Do it.

(CLUNK) 'All right, it's closed.'
Right.

644

you can find. Use any excuse -

645

engine out of water, anything -
and let me know where you are.

646

Is that clear?
'Is this a joke?'

647
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,039
You've got £200,000 worth of
gold bullion in your luggage boot,

648
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,599
and the person who stole it
is probably among your passengers.

649
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,599
Does that sound like a joke?

650
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:20,959
Hello? Driver?

651
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,199
'Do you hear me?'
Yes, sir.

Right. I'm holding you
responsible for its safety

655
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,079
until the police get there.
Do you understand?

656
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,399
Yes, sir.

657
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,279

until we know where you are.'

called Bletchingdon.

out there all by himself?

We've hit something.
I didn't stop on purpose, honestly.

00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,759
Well, nobody minds, Percy.
Why get in a state?

685
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:44,959
You've done very well.

686
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:46,999
I just didn't want anyone
to think I'd stopped on purpose,

687
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,039
because if I hadn't hit something,
I shouldn't have stopped at all.

I just want everyone to believe that.

It is Percy, isn't it?

Yes, sir.
I'll drive straight on, sir.

691

Not with that lot on the front.
You've got to see the damage.

Well, yes, sir.
Anything you say, sir.

Nobody could've done better.

In the coach.

All because the driver
was told to press on.

a driver once lost his way

and drove a car into a cemetery
by mistake.

and he fell right down into
a mausoleum - car and all.

back onto the road?

00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,240
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC CONTINUES)

933
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,320
(LOUD BOOM)

934
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:49,599
That, mate, was a ruddy hand grenade!

935
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,240
Keep your head down!

936
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,799
I'm getting back to the pub.
You stay where you are!

937
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,560
Please yourself.
Someone's coming.

938
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,719
Is everyone all right?
So far. But who screamed?

939
00:45:05,720 --> 00:45:07,999
I don't know.
I was outside looking around.

940
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,639
You've no business to be outside!
I said everyone was to stay inside.

941
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,199
I'm not in the habit of taking orders

942
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,520
unless they're given to me
by somebody in authority.

943
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,479
I'm sorry. But you can see
it isn't very healthy outside.

944
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:19,999
Someone's trying to take a bead on us.

945
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,639
I wasn't as prepared for that as you.

946
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,319
I'm going back to the others.

947
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,359
We're all going back
but let's do it sensibly.

948
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,039
Yes, on hands and knees.
If the marksman's still there,

949
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,159
four of us running together
will be a perfect target.

950
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,639
It's safer to run the open space
between here and the inn.

951
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:38,079
All right. You follow me.
Then Miss Nicholls and then Percy.

952
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,639
And make sure the spacing
isn't too even.

953
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,039
If he once gets the rhythm,
he can start sighting.

954
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:44,279
That's right.

955
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,799
And get a perfect tempo
for muggins here!

956
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,360
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

957
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,559
Look, miss.
I know it sounds daft,

958
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,960
but you ought to believe this.
Believe what?

959
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:19,719
There's £200,000 worth of gold bars
hidden in that boot. There's what?

960
00:46:19,720 --> 00:46:22,119
If I never stand here again -
and I hope I won't.

961
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,679
But how do you know? The police
have just been on the blower,

962
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,519
and that first officer's got a gun
and he stuck it in my back.

963
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,679
And he seems to know
too much about everything.

964
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,799
And I don't like the look
of that Mr Schroeder.

965
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,559
And now someone's popping off
guns at us.

966
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,239
Ooh, I wish I'd never taken this job.

967
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:37,360
Nicky? Are you all right?

968
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,280
Yes, I'm all right!
I forgot the coffee.

969
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,439
What do you mean he stuck a gun
in your back?

970
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,279
In the coach.
He told me to keep driving or else.

971
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,319
Then he told me to open the boot.
If you're dreaming all this up...

972
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,800
Dreaming it up!
You talk to the airport!

973
00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:03,719
Find the passenger list
on the back seat.

974
00:47:03,720 --> 00:47:05,879
I'll get the airport.

975
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,799
I'm going mad.
I know I'm going mad.

976
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,359
This is Stewardess Nicholls, BOAC.

977
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,879
I'm speaking from relief coach 13.

978
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,439
MAN:
'Yes, Miss Nicholls. Go ahead.'

979
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,479
The driver's just told me
we've got some unexpected cargo.

980
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,279
Is that right?
That's quite correct.

981
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,879
This is Detective Inspector Henley.
Where in heaven's name are you?

982
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:24,399
In a village that seems to be deserted,

983
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,199
and someone is popping off with a gun.

984
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:27,559
We should be in the Maidenhead area.

985
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,679
But where? We've checked every
village on the map in that area.

986
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,319
All right, take a distance check.

987
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,599
The mileage on the speedometer
is 18430.

988
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:38,839
'18430.'
That's right.

989
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,719
If Transport has a record
of what it was,

990
00:47:40,720 --> 00:47:42,480
you can work out how many miles
we are from you.

991
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:45,520
(TWO TAPS)

992
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:54,680

(EXHALES)

996
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,959
And we have a BOAC pilot with us,
Peter Jones.

997
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:09,439
He jumped the coach at the last minute.

998
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,119
Fine, we'll check on those names
and get back to you in 20 minutes.

999
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:14,599
The time now is 08:17 exactly.

1000
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,679
The driver said Jones has a gun,
but I don't trust anybody.

1001
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:21,199
No, the driver's all right.
George Davis. We've checked on him.

1002
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:23,199
'Who?'
George Davis, your relief driver.

1003
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,040
'We'll get back to you
in 20 minutes.'

1004
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,680
(SWITCH CLICKS)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

1005
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,360
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

1006
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,879
Nicky! Driver!
What in the world are you doing?

1007
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:47,879
Coming!

1008
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:49,879
Miss? Miss?

1009
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,239
There's a body in here!
We'll talk about it inside.

1010
00:48:53,240 --> 00:48:55,920
But... (HISSES)
Miss? Miss?

1011
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,639
What took you so long?
Are you all right?

1012
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,119
Of course I'm all right.
I screamed.

1013
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,439
Haven't you ever screamed?
Something went bang.

1014
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,759
And instead of holding it in,
I let it out.

1015
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:08,319
Don't fuss!

1016
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,399
You can.
Here, miss -

1017
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,479
I think it would be a good idea
if we all sat down

1018
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,919
and put some cards on the table.

1019
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,919
I bet I've got the ace of spades!

1020
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:17,280
All right.

1021
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:21,439
They might as well all know it
and face up to it.

1022
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,759
They're all in considerable danger.
Danger?

1023
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,919
There's something in that coach
that somebody wants badly.

1024
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,199
I believe they'll go to any lengths.

1025
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,880
I also believe that that person
is amongst us at this moment.

1026
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:35,359
Well, don't look at me!

1027
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,799
And while we are putting
our cards on the table,

1028
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,079
this chap's got a gun.

1029
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:40,719
And he stuck it in my back
while we were driving.

1030
00:49:40,720 --> 00:49:42,279
And in the back of the coach...

1031
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:44,039
No, you go and find out for yourselves.

1032
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,199
You know, in the book
Ghouls Don't Talk... Oooh!

1033
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,599
Quiet, girl!

1034
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,999
Young man, I must insist
that you be more explicit.

1035
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,959
What something on the coach
and which somebody?

1036
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,399
And what are you doing
sticking guns at people?

1037
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:57,559
I assure you, madam -

1038
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,199
Miss! I'm sorry.
But I haven't got a gun.

1039
00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,679
And even if I had one, I'd hardly
stick it in anybody's back.

1040
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,319
You know, in the book -
Ooh! There's a liar.

1041
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:07,679
No gun, eh?

1042
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:09,519
You wouldn't like to be searched,
would you?

1043
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,399
Why not? Go ahead.
Oh.

1044
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,359
Yes, go ahead, search, Mr Davis.

1045
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:16,799
I will. And the name's Lamb, miss.
Yes, I thought it was.

1046
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,119
He couldn't have shot a gun himself
out there.

1047
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,239
Thank you, sir. That's the first
intelligent remark on the subject.

1048
00:50:22,240 --> 00:50:24,279
Are you satisfied?
You've hidden it.

1049
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:25,919
Sometimes they're strapped
round their leg.

1050
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:27,480
I say, do you mind?

1051
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:30,959
You've got it strapped on your leg.

1052
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:34,879
Surely, we should be outside looking
for the gun that sniped at us.

1053
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,159
I think after a few home truths
about ourselves first,

1054
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,599
the job will be much simpler.

1055
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,839
What do you mean by that remark?
We should all show our passports.

1056
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,400
I don't see what that'll prove
but I'm quite willing.

1057
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:47,680
Edward Schroeder.

1058
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:50,959
That's, er, quite a fat wallet
you've got there.

1059
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,199
Mmm, fat but gun-less.
I'm quite willing to be searched.

1060
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,519
Well, the first person
who tries to search me

1061
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,439
will get hit?
Oh, you won't be searched.

1062
00:50:58,440 --> 00:50:59,959
We just want to establish identities.

1063
00:50:59,960 --> 00:51:03,079
Ah, well, that I will do,
but any further liberties...

1064
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:06,079
And I wish to warn you
that once at Boulogne

1065
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:08,600
I seriously defaced a customs officer.

1066
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:11,520
(WHISPERS) Cow.

1067
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,479
Wherever they are,
they're about 33 miles away,

1068
00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,679
allowing for any detour
they may have made in the fog.

1069
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,839
Now, I want every village
in that radius double-checked.

1070
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,519
Cover all roads out of Middlesex,
Oxford and Hampshire.

1071
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,959
There's not much on the passengers.
Neither Blackbushe or Northolt

1072
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,359
have any booking record in the name
of Beeston or Waterman.

1073
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,239
What does that mean?
Well, it's not unusual.

1074
00:51:29,240 --> 00:51:30,759
The Irish planes are regular.

1075
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:32,839
A lot of people
just take the first seat.

1076
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,559
What else? Pan American say
that Mr Schroeder did call

1077
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,359
and enquire about Shannon arrivals.

1078
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,239
And Janie Grey WAS
on the incoming east plane

1079
00:51:39,240 --> 00:51:41,079
and we DO have a pilot officer
Peter Jones.

1080
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:43,079
But he's on leave on the continent.

1081
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:44,759
Er, hello? Spencer here.

1082
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:48,439
Continue checks on triangle
Reading, Basingstoke, Heathrow.

1083
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,359
Three-county stops, immediate!
(HANGS UP)

1084
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:52,879
Well, that's a beautiful circle.

1085
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:54,239
Calling Control Room.

1086
00:51:54,240 --> 00:51:57,239
The police want mobile transmitters
to cover all arterial roads

1087
00:51:57,240 --> 00:51:59,559
from Heathrow through Middlesex
and Oxford.

1088
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,079
Control Tower checking.

1089
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,839
Mobile transmitters covering
all airport entrances.

1090
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:05,439
No change in wet weather reports,

1091
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,919
but Blackbushe reports
ceiling lifting slightly.

1092
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,079
Let's hope the Nicholls girl
has some news.

1093
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:11,960
Seven minutes to go.
Better stand by.

1094
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,639
I don't like to do all this,
but under the circumstances...

1095
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,359
Oh, that's quite all right.

1096
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,559
I'm sure we all feel safer knowing
we're all who we say we are.

1097
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,639
And did anyone have any doubt who I am?

1098
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,999
No, no, no, no,
I didn't mean you, my dear madam.

1099
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:28,280
Miss!

1100
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,600
However, there's still time.

1101
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:34,679
(WHISPERS) Silly old bag!

1102
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,399
Thank you, Miss Grey.
You can read them if you like.

1103
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,439
You've told us all the best parts.
Ooh, but in this one -

1104
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:40,559
Thank you, Miss Grey.

1105
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,759
Oh, you don't know what you're missing.

1106
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:44,239
And the only piece of identification

1107
00:52:44,240 --> 00:52:45,879
you can produce
is this football coupon.

1108
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,519
Well, I don't take a passport
with me for a bus ride, do I?!

1109
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:51,319
It's got my name on it,
hasn't it? Yes. Percy Lamb.

1110
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,839
Well, who did you think I was,
Jack the Ripper?

1111
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,079
No. Someone quite different.

1112
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:57,360
How dare you?!

1113
00:52:58,720 --> 00:53:00,799
Can I go and wash my hands.
Yes, of course.

1114
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:02,079
But where?
Where?

1115
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,199
Where?
I've no idea. Upstairs, I suppose.

1116
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,119
Where are you going?
About my business.

1117
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:08,959
Nicky, for God's sake, have some sense.

1118
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,799
There's a gun out there. We've got
to stay put until the fog lifts.

1119
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,159
You know it's our duty to report in.
All right, I'll do it.

1120
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,639
It happens to be my job.
Why, have you found a telephone?

1121
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,719
No, it's a radio coach. Why?

1122
00:53:19,720 --> 00:53:22,119
Nothing but I'd have asked you
to send a message for me.

1123
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:23,359
What message?

1124
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,959
Please call my office, Temple Bar 7407,

1125
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,999
and tell them that my brother will
need a large car for his luggage.

1126
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,839
Temple Bar 7407?
Thank you. Yes.

1127
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,600
I'm glad to know we're at least
in contact with the outside world.

1128
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,999
You know, I think we might make
some of that coffee.

1129
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:39,639
A very good idea.

1130
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:41,919
And you will send a message
to my sister,

1131
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:43,919
Hounslow 1903,

1132
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:47,119
and say that no matter how late I am
she must wait up for me.

1133
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,639
That's the least your company
can do. Certainly.

1134
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:50,879
Anyone else want anything?

1135
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:52,679
Yes, I wanna wash my hands.

1136
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:54,599
Well, wash 'em!
But where?

1137
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:56,999
Ooh! You give me the habdabs,
you do, mate!

1138
00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:58,439
I'll reconnoitre.

1139
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,359
And don't ask me what it means.

1140
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:02,319
Right, you take care of the coffee.

1141
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,000
Look, if I've got to trust you,
you've got to trust me.

1142
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,440
The tin's in the kitchen.
Would you open it for me?

1143
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,359
Perhaps I could wash my hands in there.

1144
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,400
No, that's the kitchen.
Percy will find it for you.

1145
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,719
I'm talking to you because
we both have a uniform in common.

1146
00:54:20,720 --> 00:54:22,159
There are things I'd like to tell you,

1147
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,079
but there are things
you ought to tell me first.

1148
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,199
Such as? You seem to know
more about this than any of us.

1149
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:27,999
I don't know anything.

1150
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:29,879
Except that someone's firing at us

1151
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:32,239
and we've got a coach full
of assorted question marks.

1152
00:54:32,240 --> 00:54:33,759
You know nothing?
No more than you.

1153
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,920
Then how do you know about
what's in the coach?

1154
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,719
How do you know?
I was told. When you weren't there -

1155
00:54:39,720 --> 00:54:41,840
(BLOODCURDLING SCREAM)

1156
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:54,239
Help! Waterman! Help!
(WHIMPERING)

1157
00:54:54,240 --> 00:54:56,959
I'll sue somebody for every penny.

1158
00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:58,400
Percy, for heaven's sake!

1159
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,079
I bet it's a council house!
Are you all right?

1160
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,559
I'm not saying a word
till I get my solicitor.

1161
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:06,359
I do wanna wash my hands.

1162
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:08,199
Well, hurry up, girl, cos I do as well.

1163
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,359
It's at the end of the passage.
Supposing I fall through the floor?

1164
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,599
Would you? Oh, come on,
we'll test the floor for you.

1165
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:16,639
Oh, it's a game, this is,
messing about like this.

1166
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:18,320
I'm sick of it.

1167
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,239
I'm not going to faint.

1168
00:55:25,240 --> 00:55:27,279
I'm not going to faint.

1169
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,239
I'm not going to faint.
No, of course you're not.

1170
00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:32,879
Yes, I am.
Missus? Missus?

1171
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,079
Now, come on,
pull yourself together, girl.

1172
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,599
Loosen anything that's tight.
Undo your... you know.

1173
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,519
The thought is the will is the deed.

1174
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:42,559
Well, this is one deed
you'll have to do yourself.

1175
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,879
Take your mind off things.
(CHUCKLES)

1176
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,119
Er, what about some party games?

1177
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:49,359
Party games!

1178
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:51,559
Oh, party games, uh!

1179
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,439
I know, we'll have a sweepstake.

1180
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,199
A sweepstake?

1181
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,799
On what? Well, we'll put each name
on a piece of paper

1182
00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:59,439
and half a crown in the kitty,

1183
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:01,119
and whoever turns out
to be the culprit,

1184
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:02,640
their name takes the pot.

1185
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:05,879
I know whose name I'd like.

1186
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:07,519
Hello, airport? Hello, coach 13.

1187
00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:10,319
'Miss Nicholls?'
Yes, I haven't much time.

1188
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,759
If I switch off, don't call me back.

1189
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:13,879
'All right, go ahead.'

1190
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,079
First, make quite sure
of the driver's name.

1191
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:18,119
'Your driver?'
You said it was George Davis.

1192
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:19,319
'That's right, it is.'

1193
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:21,840
Well, it isn't, it's Percy Lamb.
Getting deeper, aren't we?

1194
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:24,839
Now, listen, somehow or another,

1195
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,639
you've gotta get the key
to that boot and lose it.

1196
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:28,360
That I can do.

1197
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,599
Oi, you can take your ticket.
Well, where's Miss Nicholls?

1198
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:34,240
Ooh, she can take hers in a minute.

1199
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,400
(TUTS) He's a big-head, he is.

1200
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:40,559
(GROANS)

1201
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:42,639
I can half pick 'em, I do.

1202
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:45,319
Oh, well, I'd better draw
one for him, I suppose.

1203
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:47,439
I know. I'll give him me.

1204
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:48,840
Hee-hee-hee!

1205
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,880
That's the number he gave,
Temple Bar 7407.

1206
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:57,360
Quiet.

1207
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:46,760
Ta. Now, that's five bob.

1208
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,639
Oh, dear, Mr Waterman.
I've picked you.

1209
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:51,999
You know what they say -

1210
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,479
unlucky in gambling, lucky in love.

1211
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:57,679
Well, honestly, for someone
who was fainting just now!

1212
00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,240
Now, let's see what I've got.

1213
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:01,879
Miss Beeston.

1214
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,480
It's gonna take a lot more than
positive thought to win this kitty.

1215
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:06,959
I didn't see your half-crown.

1216
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:08,759
Ooh, that's all right,
it's in my pocket.

1217
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:10,079
Yes, well, I want to be quite sure

1218
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,679
the rest of the money
isn't in the same place.

1219
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,319
I'll hold the stakes.

1220
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,679
How dare you?!

1221
00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:17,839
Oh, well, take it.

1222
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:19,959
I'm afraid it's black coffee
and you've got no sugar.

1223
00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:21,920
That's where you're wrong, mate.
She's got the lot.

1224
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:25,359
And ticket for Miss Blandish.
Come on, dear, take a ticket.

1225
00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:26,880
What for?
Half a dollar.

1226
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,599
What does "the field" mean?
That you've got a very good chance.

1227
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,039
Come on, dear, the money.
I've only got French francs.

1228
00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,639
Aw! How many French francs
in half a dollar?

1229
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:36,879
Oh, we'll soon work that out.

1230
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,999
Come on, let's go into the kitchen
and try and find some cups.

1231
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,360

The key.
Hey?

1234
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:50,999
The key to the luggage boot.

1235
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,639
Oh, the luggage boot!
Yes.

1236
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:54,199
No!
I don't want to get rough.

listen to me for a moment!

Everybody!

1249

Can you hear me,
you three at the coach?

1250
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:48,999
We're listening. This whole village
is extensively mined.

1251
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:50,519
Do you understand that?

1252
00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:52,879
There is a series of crisscrossed wires

1253
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:54,639
laid across various approaches.

1254
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:56,799
And if any of those wires get tripped,

1255
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,719
they detonate a charge.

1256
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:02,599
So if you come back to this door
along the lane you've already used,

1257

nothing else will go off.

01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:08,600
Quite clear.

1260

There isn't much else to do
but believe him.

in a minute.

1263
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,639
What caused this sudden rush
of knowledge?

1264
01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:29,320
I did a bit of exploring.

1265
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,999
I found this at the house next door.
It was wired through a staple,

1266
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,439
and the wire went down the side of
the house and across the street.

1267
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,599
You tripped it, and that's what
fired at you earlier.

1268
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:43,919
Oh, do be careful.
Is it loaded?

1269
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:45,359
Yes, it's loaded.

1270
01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:47,480
So we'll put it away for now.

1271
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:51,399
But I think we'll all have
to stay here till daybreak.

If what Mr Schroeder said is true,

it would be lunacy to drive
out of here at night.

1325

Perhaps you will explain all this?
Yeah, I'm on your side.

to London Airport Security.

1328
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:36,239
Then what are you doing on this coach?

1329
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:40,159
Trailing a slippery bullion thief
known as "the Banker".

1330
01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:41,919
You mean that he...?

1331
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:43,279
Is he the Banker?

1332
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:45,599
Stone the crows!
He IS a police officer.

1333
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:47,919
Of course I am, you stupid madman.

1334
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,239
Give me that wallet.
There was a French thriller once

shot each other up.

1336

Do you want to get shot up?

1337
01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:55,919
No.
Well, shut up.

1338
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:58,479
You have seen my identification papers.

1339
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,359
Now, what about yours?
George is my identification.

1340
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:03,639
George Davis, he was
the relief driver of the coach.

1341
01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,119
We put him in the boot
to have reinforcements handy.

1342
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:10,479
We bound him for effect in case
the Banker got there first.

1343
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,359
The relief driver, Mr Lamb?

1344
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:15,639
Now, look, for a start,
I usually drive for BEA.

1345
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,519
All I know is this -
I walk in the lounge,

1346
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,319
you grab me,
and before I know where I am,

1347
01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:22,359
I'm driving to BOAC, not BEA.

1348
01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:24,679
OK? Now sought that lot out.

1349
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:26,079
I don't accept your story.

1350
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,319
I'm afraid you've no alternative.

1351
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,079
You'll just have to take my word.

1352
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:32,600
Now, over there, Mr Schroeder.

1353
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:36,560
And the rest of you.

1354
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:40,560
Quickly!
(HISSES)

1355
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:45,479
I'll tell you this, though.

1356
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,239
When we arrived here tonight,
I had no idea who the Banker was.

1357
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:51,119
I had my suspicions but I wasn't sure.

1358
01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:53,640
Then someone made a very silly mistake.

1359
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:56,919
Now I know.

1360
01:04:56,920 --> 01:05:00,119
Well, who?! Tell us before
we get our throats cut.

1361
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,719
You're going to have to wait
until the police get here.

1362
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,800
You see, I don't know how
many accomplices we have with us.

1363
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,519
We can't just stay here
with a scoundrel amongst us.

1364
01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:12,079
Now, don't distress yourself.
One of them IS a policeman.

1365
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:13,639
But he's the one who doesn't know.

1366
01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:15,959
You've no right to place us
in danger by not telling.

1367
01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:18,759
You're in no danger while
we leave the Banker anonymous.

1368
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,680
Because the person is still thinking
I've got the wrong one.

1369
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:24,999
Here, I wonder who's won the sweep.

1370
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:26,359
I've got the field.

1371
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:27,879
You ought to be in one, dear.

1372
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,679
The police ought to be here.
I gave them direction and mileage.

1373
01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,399
They'll be here if you gave that
message to the Temple Bar number.

1374
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,319
Unfortunately, you gave them
the wrong directions.

1375
01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:36,799
We're nowhere near Maidenhead.

1376
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:38,679
We're a few miles west of High Wycombe.

1377
01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:39,879
High Wycombe? How do you know?

1378
01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:42,199
Because when explosions
keep happening in an area

1379
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,479
and no one comes to see about it,
that area is used to explosions.

1380
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:46,679
But why High Wycombe?

1381
01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:49,079
Because that's the only place
this side of the river

1382
01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:51,239
where explosions are accepted.

1383
01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:53,520
It's the Army's battle training ground.

1384
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,239
The what?

1385
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:58,519
This is a commando village.

1386
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:00,719
I was sure of it when I found
the body on the gallows

1387
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,879
that the driver ran into.

1388
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:05,399
It was a dummy
used for bayonet practice.

1389
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:07,839
This whole place is fenced off
from the public.

1390
01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:10,879
They train here under
actual battle conditions.

1391
01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:13,160
You drove here through a minefield.

1392
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:16,759
A...

1393
01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:18,120
Quick, she's fainted!

01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,199
Is there room for one more?

Doesn't it, Schroeder?
Begad, I feel most peculiar.

1400
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:40,279
There are hooter noises.
And my head's rumbling.

1401
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,479
It's not your head, dear.
It's real rumbles.

You won't get away with this,
you know, Miss Banker.

1407

As a lesson for next time,
what did I do wrong?

1408
01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:02,039
You were far too anxious
to get that extra coach put on.

1409
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:03,959
You were yelling about
Blackbushe Airport

1410
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:05,679
before you even knew
whether the Dublin planes

1411
01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:07,399
went from there or from Northolt.

1412

who's having so much trouble
with that engine.

1416
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,559
He never came in on the jet
from Johannesburg,

1417
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:22,199
because it didn't land there.

1418
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,999
It should've done but it was
detoured through the fog to Hurn.

1419
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:26,959
They didn't announce it
at London Airport,

1420
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,679
and you didn't trouble to find out.
That was slip number two.

1421
01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:33,559
Slip number three was
your boyfriend's passport,

the last embarkation stamp,

1423
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:38,279
and it was dated two months ago
instead of today.

1424
01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,479
I must remember that next time.

1425
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,479
You should always check
with air travel.

You think you've been
very smart, don't you?

1427
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:48,799
Well, I have. You're gonna find
it takes more than positive thought

1428
01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,440
to start the engine
without this rotor arm.

I feel sorry for Holloway prison.
I'm told they dread having her back.

01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:22,959
Percy did.

It's nothing really.

1460
01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:30,959
Then Beeston sent that message
to her sister, remember?

1461
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:34,239
It was a Hounslow number,
the lookout house near the airport.

1462
01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:36,639
The message told them to wait,
no matter how late she was.
