>> Get the money. Austin.

>> What money? I don't know what you mean.

>> I mean what was handed to you in the

yard at the back of the market tavern in

Wam last night. Now, do I make myself

clear?

>> What's it got to do with you? Who are

you?

>> Get that money, master.

Hurry up.

Find him. All right. Get going.

>> Hello. Hello.

Say, are we having some excitement here

in Water? About time. What's happened?

Murder. Two of them. Simply terrible.

Oh, I haven't time now.

Marley. Marley. Listen.

The police are anxious to interview a

young woman who was cycling yesterday

morning on the Walsham Bay Anne

Beacon Wood. The young woman made a

purchase of fruit and honey at Lower

Anststead Farm and is believed to have

come from Walsh and Bay.

That's you.

>> Yes, but I couldn't tell them anything.

I didn't.

>> Yes, I did. It was a car and a man. He

came out of the woods.

The murderer. Fancy actually seeing him.

You must tell the police at once. And

the press.

>> Don't be ridiculous. How can I? I'm on

in a few minutes.

>> Sheila will have to read for you.

>> What did he look like? I don't know. It

was miles aware how hard they saw him.

Probably wasn't the man at all.

>> Well, of course it was. Anyway, it makes

a wonderful publicity story.

>> Well,

what must go on, is it, sir?

>> Only the girl's statement.

>> She said she couldn't identify.

>> No, but thanks to this full reporter, he

may think she can. His only motive in

the second case was that the driver

could identify him.

>> If he thinks the girl could do so, he

may try and remove her, too. She'll have

to have protection.

>> You'd like me to go down to Water Bay

>> right away. They aren't getting

anywhere, and as usual, the press are

screaming about unsolved murders. Now,

rather late in the day, we're called in

to help. Frankly, Ver, it looks

hopeless. That's why I'm sending you.

>> That's very kind of you, sir.

>> Whatever happens, we must avoid a third

tragedy. She'll be your responsibility.

Don't leave her to the local force. Look

after her yourself.

I hope she won't be too unattractive.

>> Oh, they're always fighting.

>> Bring that stuff inside.

>> Right.

What else?

>> It seems M was dealing in the black in a

pretty big way. Liverpool, Manchester,

Birmingham, all over the place.

>> Yes, we suspected him for some time.

Couldn't get a thing on him.

>> Well, that's a lot, sir.

>> Right. Thanks.

Well, we can't make very much headway

without a motive.

We'll have to check every single name

and address. Of course, there'll be cash

transactions.

If only we could link one of them with a

trip down here.

Well, it looks to me as if someone got

to know the details and went to

blackmail. Well, then on the other hand,

the safe was empty. They may have been

rifling it and got caught red-handed.

They are quite sure about that driver

that he wasn't in it. As sure as we can

be of anyone, an honest, decent sort of

fellow. And the fact that that car was

found 30 mi away on the London road

looks like a stranger in the district.

>> It might have been a blind. It's

>> unlikely, isn't it?

>> Darn unlikely.

>> What time does the curtain come down at

the rep theater?

>> About 10:00.

>> Well, I think I'll get along and have a

look at this actress woman.

>> Hi, girl.

>> Nothing.

>> Oh, wait a bit. Wian Bay double murder.

Detective Inspector Jack Viner from

Scotland Yard has arrived in Washington

Bay and visited Mustin's farm. Nine

school children were taken up. That's

all there is.

>> It's enough. If only I'd come with you

that day, I'd have never got mixed up in

this beastly business.

>> You know, these local press boys just

don't know their job. They ought to be

around here asking you whether you like

dark men or fair, whether you wear

pajamas or a nighty. As for that

frightful stone they printed of you made

you look 40.

>> Feel 40. You know, the Sundays wouldn't

laugh it like that. They'd have you in a

bikini. No,

>> inspector Ber to see Miss Lester.

>> It's him. Who? Viner. He's here. He

wants to speak to you.

>> Oh, he can't tell him I'm not dressed,

will you? That'll bring him rushing in.

>> Excuse me. Thank you. Good night. Good

night.

>> Good night, Charlie. Good night, cow.

>> George. George, I'm looking for a

policeman.

>> Better go outside and blow a whistle.

>> No.

>> Lost something?

>> Yes, I told you you're a policeman.

>> Oh, bologoney.

>> Miss Lester.

>> But you're not a policeman.

>> Well, I was under the impression I was.

But

>> But you're not old enough. And you

haven't got a hat on.

>> Oh, you see, we take a course in manners

now.

>> I wonder if you could give me a few

minutes. Well, I could give you hours,

but there's only one snack. I'm not Miss

Lester.

>> Oh,

>> she said if you'd wait a minute, she'd

put some clothes on.

>> Well, that might be as well,

>> my dear. He simply disintegrated.

>> Why? What's the matter with you?

>> He's terrific. Don't do me up, will you?

If all the new police are like that, I'm

taking up crime.

>> Well, bother him anyway. I want my

supper. Well, wouldn't you like me to go

for you? After all, I am a respectable

married woman.

>> Married? Anyway,

>> you wanted to see me.

>> Is it really, Miss Lester this time?

>> Yes.

>> Well, perhaps we could go somewhere

where there's a little less traffic.

>> Look, I've already told them all I know,

and I haven't eaten since lunchtime.

>> All right, come on.

>> Where, too?

>> Find somewhere to eat.

>> Will there be anything else? More

coffee. Have a look here.

>> You must want my help badly.

>> We do. No, just the buildings. Now, let

me see. [music] Where were we? Darkish

clothes, soft hat, the stars. Can't you

add anything to that?

>> I told you I was way up the road.

[music]

>> Even in the distance, you can get some

impression. What type would you put him

down?

>> How do you mean?

>> Well, for instance, town rather than

country.

>> From the clothes, yes.

>> Or was he tall or short? Young, old,

dark, fairy.

>> He was too far away. Besides, I had no

special reason to. And did you connect

him with the shots?

>> Vaguely, yes.

>> Of course, you wouldn't be able to

distinguish between the sound of a

gunshot or a pistol.

>> No, I don't use them.

>> Do you live alone, Miss Lester?

>> Oh, not exactly. I have digs with Carol

Burns and her husband. You saw her at

the theater.

>> Good. Well, now I'm going to ask you not

to go anywhere at any time alone.

>> That's ridiculous.

>> I hope so.

>> Aren't you being rather melodramatic?

>> Now, listen, Miss Lester. We don't know

very much about this man we're after.

Thanks to the local press, he knows a

good deal about you. One thing we do

know is that he won't hesitate to use

his gun. We're pretty certain that the

driver was a complete stranger to him or

he was an easygoing sort of a chap with

a wife and two children. He was shot

simply because he could identify the

murderer. Now do you see what I mean?

>> But I've told you I couldn't possibly

identify him.

>> The point is he doesn't know that you

can't. You must realize the position

you're in.

>> But it just isn't practical. I mean,

there won't always be someone to see me

home at night. So that they will, even

if you don't know it.

>> When does this begin?

>> It's begun. [music]

>> Are you going to be here all night? Cuz

we still got plenty of shots left, you

know. [music]

[music]

heart.

[music]

[music]

>> Bye. See you.

>> Bye. [music]

>> Now then, how far is this castle yours?

Oh, about a mile or so.

>> A mile. [music]

Oh, that's much too far.

>> Well, that's where I'm going. And I have

to have protection, don't I? [music]

>> My first rest for a fortnight.

[music]

>> Is that it?

>> Yes, that's it.

>> But it looks a bit better [music] at B,

doesn't it?

>> So would you after 900 years?

>> What's it used for?

>> Only for cutting your name up.

>> Funny how people love cutting their

names, isn't it? Especially on castles

[music] and dead bishops.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Molly.

>> Mhm.

>> What are you going to do when you grow

up?

>> I thought I was grown up.

>> Oh, it's an easy mistake to make. What

are you going to be?

>> A good actress, [music] I hope.

>> A good single actress or a good married

actress.

>> You're very inquisitive.

>> Well, that's what policemen are paid

for.

>> Funny, I still can't think of you as a

policeman. Somehow you're not like that.

>> You ought to see me in a helmet.

>> No, I mean snooping about chasing

murderers and things. Were you doing it

all through the war?

>> Mhm. Except I was doing it with a sten

gun.

>> Yes, I can imagine you as a soldier. I

suppose you got to be a sergeant or

something.

>> Only a major. Oh,

>> well, now let's talk about you.

>> Let's go and see the lighthouse.

>> Well, that must be another two miles.

>> That's right. [music]

>> All right.

[music]

>> Oh, dear.

>> Come on, jump.

>> I'll fall.

>> All good actors have to jump. Haven't

you seen Hamlet?

>> All right, but mind you, catch me.

[crying]

[music]

Now, what did we have to come all this

way for?

[music]

>> Birmingham say had several trips to the

south coast, but they don't know Mustin.

And the last trip was before Eastern.

Put him in group two. Anyone else?

>> Nothing.

What have you got? Oh,

>> anyone, sir?

>> Not County. Man named Halton. Known to

be in touch with a firm of butchers

already on a suspicion. Brought in a

truckload of pigs on the night of the

murder, the 16th. No satisfactory

explanation of where he got him. No

license to move them. Proceedings

pending. What? Sounds like group one. Do

we know that Mustin had peas? He had

some six or seven weeks back. All right.

Ask them to check withdrawals from

Hton's bank before the 16th. And if in

treasury notes, can the cashier swear to

any marks? You know, they often jot the

balance down on the back.

>> The bank for all the work done, sir?

>> No.

What I wouldn't give for one solid fact

was if he were a stranger to Mustin, he

was either in on the other end of the

deal or he knew about it or he'd

overheard something.

>> Oh, well, if I wanted, I'll be over at

the repetry theater.

>> What again, sir? Something else to do.

>> Good night, boys.

>> Good night.

>> Good night, sir.

>> Good night, sir. If you ask me, the

government's got it pretty bad.

>> I notice it's Molly now, not Miss

Lester. Well,

>> human nature will have it to say. Hey,

that ruddy kettle's boiling over.

Mortion police. Yes. No, he's just left.

What's that? To town.

>> Next pass to town is 9:50, isn't it?

>> 9 to3.

>> All right, we'll try.

>> Looks like something at last.

>> What is it?

>> The yard.

>> Sir, you wanted urgency at the yard. The

Mustin case. There's a 953 past. Right.

What is the cause leerties that my

rebellion looks so giant?

>> Do not fear our person.

>> Hello.

>> Hello. Is Molly on?

>> Yes. The curtains in about 10 minutes.

LC.

>> Will you tell her I've got the dash to

me once?

>> Oh, but you want to tell anyone a

telephone call you man wouldn't leave

his name. What did he want?

>> He wanted to meet us afternoon on the

London road. Sydney in a car.

>> Well, I'll arrange for a police car to

take her home each night while I'm away.

I'll be glad if you and your husband

will see she's alone as little as

possible.

>> Oh, sure.

>> And any more telephone calls? Let the

superintendent know at once.

>> Okay.

>> Shall I tell you all right?

>> How much time have we got?

>> Only about 3 minutes.

>> Look, we'll try something. Ask a

superintendent to plant the idea with

the press that a man has been detained.

>> Man detained. Is that all?

>> Yes. That might put his mind at rest

till I get back. Not an official

statement, you understand? Just drop a

hint.

>> Right, sir.

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> Come in.

He's turned up, sir. Still won't give

his name. Send him in

inside.

Sit down.

Mind I I'm not sure I can tell you

anything.

Why did you write this letter then?

Well, you see, I

Is he taking it all down?

>> Uh, do you mind, Harry?

>> Well, you see, I might know something.

Then again, it might get me up the

spout. I got to be careful. See,

you don't mind if I spoke while you had

breakfast?

>> No, that's why

an old friend of yours. Well, I wouldn't

say friends exactly.

>> What would you say?

>> Well, we done a bit of business

together.

>> When did you last see him?

>> That's just it. The night before it was

pushed off.

>> Where?

>> In a pub in Wam Bay.

>> Name?

>> The Market Tavern. We had a drink. See,

and I need to take the stuff and I give

you the money.

>> How much?

>> Well, that's just it. It was a tidy s to

be carrying around all in one's what

couldn't be traced. That's what made me

think I ought to tell somebody else. I I

thought it might help.

>> You've taken a long time to make up your

mind.

I didn't want anyone to get away with

all that money. So, I figured if I give

you a line on it, you'd see there was no

trouble for a chapel was trying to make

an honest living. Well, I can't compound

a felony. You know that. If you give any

material help, it might be taken into

consideration.

Now, let's stop going round and round

the Malbury bush and get down to facts.

You had a black market deal with Mustin.

>> Well, I wouldn't say black exactly. More

what they call sepia.

>> Well, never mind the shade. What did he

supply?

>> All sorts of stuff. Pork mostly. We

settled up for the last 6 months.

>> And Mustin left the market tavern with a

large sum in treasury notes.

>> 1860 to be exact. Done up with neat

rubber bands.

>> What sort of rubber bands?

>> Like that ordinary reddish.

>> Any marks on the notes?

>> None that I know of.

>> Who saw you hand the money over?

>> Nobody. It was in the yard at the back.

It was dark.

>> Well, someone saw you.

>> What about the people you sold to?

>> They didn't know where the stuff came

from. Didn't want to. Huh. respectable

hotels and places like that.

>> You're not here to pay off an old school

by any chance, are you?

>> Me? I haven't got an enemy in the world.

>> All right. Name and address.

>> John Henry.

>> Henry. We may as well have the right

one.

>> Samuel Denny,

19 South Street, Mley Park.

>> Bank. What bank?

>> Where you drew the money.

>> I don't deal with banks. I don't trust

them.

Well, you sit there and have a good

think because I want the name of

everyone who knew that you had that

money on you.

Will there be a reward?

Oh, about 2 years, I should think. Come

off it, governor. I'll give you the old

thing on a

>> You've given me nothing except a

possible motive. It's taken me nearly 3

weeks to get that.

>> That's nothing to what my hotel is to

wait for their roast pork if I go

inside. And what about the tourist

trade?

>> We let the government worry about that.

Is the commander in?

>> Yes, sir.

Get through to Walsh Bay and have them

check the movements of everyone who was

known to be in the market tavern the

night before Monst was killed. The pop

tab, sir.

>> The market tavern. Very good, sir.

>> Oh, and just keep this gentleman amused.

[music]

>> [music]

>> Hello. the children.

>> Get the Dale.

>> Yes. All been fixed.

>> Oh, good. Well, what will go then? But

you're coming with us.

>> Never sir. I'll be all right.

>> Oh, now look, I promise you, Specter, I

keep an eye on you.

>> I shall just take the bus to the end of

the bay.

>> You sure you'll be all right?

>> Yes, really. Look, I I'm sure. No, don't

be silly. Goodbye.

>> Goodbye.

>> Goodbye.

moment, I've got a blinding headache.

The

>> Aspen's over there if you want.

>> No, I was looking for my writing case.

Dear, I remember now. I left it on the

beach.

>> Why? What was in it?

>> All my rehearsal notes and letters and

things. [music]

>> The love letters of a policeman.

>> Someone's bound to handle it.

>> Well, there wasn't anybody except that

man. The tide comes up beyond there.

Maddening. [music]

>> Have you told the police about this

morning?

>> What's there to tell them? I didn't do

anything. It was just me. He was

probably perfectly innocent and just

going for a walk along the sands.

>> Oh, yes. Then why did he have to go on

sitting there when you were in your

sunsuit? Now I wish you'd go to the

police about it. Look,

>> they'd only laugh. If they arrested all

the men in this town who watched girls

in sunsuits, there'd be no men loose.

Can't know why it was so stupid. If I

just gone on.

>> Yes, but you're forgetting the telephone

call.

>> No, darling, I'm very worried about it

all. [music]

Look, will you promise me to come

straight back in the police car and then

come over to us? Well, we'll leave the

party open, but I'll let you line back.

Would there be a chemist open?

to 10.

>> Oh, my watch must have stopped. I've

been asleep.

>> I can send round soon after 8 in the

morning.

[music]

M's not back here. Well, I better go and

over for a drink.

>> I'll fix it. Where's the fuse box?

>> No, don't bother, darling. I just don't

feel up to it tonight.

>> Come on, just for a few minutes. Have

something to eat. Dad will be so

disappointed.

>> I'm terribly disappointed. I'm so sorry,

but really I just want to go straight to

bed.

>> All right, but let Jerry fix your

lighter.

>> Yeah.

>> No, no. I don't want to break up the

party. We can wrestle with that honey.

>> Okay, but give us a shout if we're

keeping you awake.

>> Nothing good.

>> Night.

>> Good night.

>> Good night.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello. Is that 5460?

Hello. Hello.

Hello.

Sorry, London. There's no reply from

that number. Well, the receivers's after

they don't answer.

Yes. Hold the line.

Water Bay Police. One moment, please.

London, aren't you?

>> Viner here. Oh, thank you. Was Miss

Lester taken home this evening? You did?

Well, there's no reply from the number

and the operator says the receiver must

have been left off.

Will you do that and ring me back?

Now then, Dick, what do you know about

those chaps?

Now, the first two have records. I'll

find out about the other one.

>> What about Denny?

>> Sam, he's an old friend.

>> I thought so. Well, he's our only link

with Mustin. He was the last person to

see him alive.

>> We'll check, of course.

>> Who's this other chap? Cardwell.

>> Well, Denny wasn't very sure about the

name. He said he'd done some business

with him. Hadn't seen him for a long

time. He thought he might be inside. It

appears that Cardwell tried to raise a

loan on some jewelry or something.

Anyway, Denny guessed the stuff was hot

and got out of it by saying he was going

away on a deal and wanted all his money.

>> Did he mention Walton? Well, Cardwell

could easily find that out.

>> Cardwell,

just a minute.

Sergeant Wells still there. Ask him to

come here.

I don't know.

I have a feeling there was something

Wells was mixed up with. There's a name

very like that. Think so.

We're interested in someone named

Cardwell.

>> Cardwell, sir. Didn't you once have a

check for that name?

>> No, sir. Must be someone else, sir. Oh,

right, sir.

You uh

you don't mean Carl, do you, sir? Maybe.

Who's he?

>> Well, you remember him, sir. That job

last winter. There were three of them in

suspicion. Him and a couple of

youngsters. I'm pretty sure Carl wasn't

his real name. Was he like

tall? Very tall. 6304,

age 30, dark.

Pretty tough, sir. Not the forging type.

What happened? Case was dropped, sir.

Lack of evidence. I could let you have

the picture I used for inquiries.

>> Oh, he's got a record.

>> Oh, no, sir. That was just a snap I

pinched from his dicks.

>> Oh, well, anything you can let us have

will be very useful. Right, sir.

for you.

>> Rhino here. Yes.

What?

>> Listen, Jack. There's been an accident.

>> Yes. I'm afraid it is. You better come

down. No, I'm not quite sure yet. What?

By road. All right. Come straight to the

hospital.

>> Now then, what about these lights?

>> Well, I can only tell you they weren't

on. She said they'd fused, didn't she?

Yes, I offered amend it for her, but she

said she was too tired. She wanted to go

straight to bed.

>> The switch is perfectly okay. See for

yourself.

Inspector V has just arrived, sir.

>> I see him outside. What chance?

Maybe quite a while.

>> Let me know if there's any change.

>> Right, sir.

>> Anything through yet?

>> No, sir. They finished the checkup on

the market tab. There's nothing new,

sir.

>> How is he?

>> Still unconscious.

>> Can I see her? I'd wait a bit.

>> The doctor says she has a chance. Jack,

it's touch and go. He was in her room

waiting for her. That means he knew the

time she got back. And that means he's

been hanging around here recently.

Anything to go on? Nothing much. We're

getting a statement. Did you find

anything?

>> Yes.

>> Who is he?

>> Well, I don't know his real name, but

I'm certain that's the man we're looking

for.

>> I'll get it circulated. Any details? on

the back.

>> Jones,

>> take that down to Fisher and get it

blown up right away and let me have a

copy as soon as you can.

>> Yes, sir. I'm going to get this, man.

>> Now, listen, Jack. I'm a much older man

than you are, and I've seen this sort of

thing happen once before.

>> What sort of thing?

>> I mean, where an officer's personal

feelings are concerned. Shall I tell you

about it? Do you have to?

>> I think so.

It wasn't a capital charge. It was a

malicious wounding. But a girl was

involved and the officer in charge of

the case was engaged to her. It went to

sizes. A good boy gave his evidence very

well. We thought the case was a sitter.

And what happened?

For seven ruddy hours, he was

cross-examined on every particle of his

evidence. And for what? To prove that he

was vindictive, had a personal motive. H

how they built it up. Bias, jealousy,

using his position to settle a private

Yes, that's right.

silk or something like that.

>> All right. Well, now you get some sleep.

>> Exciting, isn't it?

>> Very good book, sir. Here's the blow up

you wanted, sir. I'm afraid it's a bit

woolly, but it's the best they can do.

>> Has he gone out?

>> Yes, sir.

>> Yeah. Hotels, lodgings, cafes, pull-ups.

We got to clean up the whole place.

>> Well, he can't be a local service. He's

got any sense he'll have cleared out.

>> He's got sense all right of a kind, but

my guess is he's still here, and we've

got to get him. If we don't, the joint

standing committee is going to have

something to say.

>> Yes, they'll say it anyway.

>> But who would have dreamt he'd come

right back into it?

>> Now, don't you kid yourself. You're paid

to have dreams like that. For 810 a

week, you're supposed to be a

psychologist, doctor, lawyer, chemist,

thought reader, crystal gazer on the

lot. You don't know it, Glover, but

you're a bloody medical.

>> Yes, sir. I expect you'd like a cup of

tea, sir.

>> I expect you're right.

>> Two lumps?

>> No. Three?

>> Yes.

>> Two lumps? How many times

>> disappeared 4 days ago and we've had to

go through the entire time.

>> It couldn't possibly be the man. Stevens

has told you he was in his room.

>> It was 20 to 10 when he came downstairs

and 11:30 when you took the tea up,

right?

>> You seem to forget the man had flu.

>> Oh, so could I have flu if I wanted an

alibi?

>> I was here attempting to rank for the

tea. He couldn't get out without passing

me.

>> Well, we see about that. Where's his

room?

Well, you go out the same time each day.

Do you have a job?

>> How should I know? I've got something

better to do than spy on the hotel

guest.

>> Do you have any mail address in him

here?

>> I have no idea. Any particular

mannerism?

>> I really couldn't say.

>> Visitors.

>> I never noticed.

>> You didn't notice very much.

>> This is the last room he had. I can't

show it to you now. It occupied.

>> 230.

>> Sir,

>> the other one's along here.

>> This is it, but you won't find anything.

>> Those rooms opposite 230. Were they

occupied on the 26th? They were.

>> What about his bill?

>> He paid it. Said he might be back

sometime.

>> Any luggage?

>> Only a suitcase. He took it with him.

Whose idea was this change of room? His

or yours?

>> He asked to be moved.

>> Isn't that the back of the market tavern

down there?

>> Yes.

>> Oh, well, now we're getting somewhere.

>> He didn't look the

>> This man's already murdered two people

and tried to kill a third. Now, I'm

leaving two peace officers here, and

you'll take your orders from them.

Understand?

>> But of course, if I'd know.

>> Well, you don't know.

>> See if she takes things easily for the

next few days. Oh, we'll take care of

them.

>> Thank you. You've been terribly kind.

>> Goodbye, M.

>> Now, I can't come down with you because

you mustn't be seen with the police.

Carol's waiting for you at the surgery

entrance, and she'll take you back in

the taxi. Can you manage this?

>> Yes. Oh, shall I see you soon?

>> Just as soon as I possibly can.

>> Oh, by the way, Miss Lester, there's one

point I forgot to mention. Um, you're

getting married.

>> Am I?

>> To a policeman?

>> Well, they get married, too. You know,

they have to keep up the supply of

little policemen.

Now then, how much do I owe you?

I'll take that.

Give me a light with him.

[music]

[music]

>> You married? Who?

>> Me?

Why?

>> You better give the Mrs. Esther. I won't

be needing him.

>> You had some bad news.

>> Yes.

>> Yes. I heard my fianceé [music] was in

hospital. So, I traveled down all night

from Newcastle and now they told me

she's gone. Not at home. And they don't

seem to know where she went. I can't

hang around here. I got a job to get

back to.

>> Come out this morning, you mean?

>> Yeah, about half an hour ago, they said.

Well, I just drove two young ladies down

to Tranley. Perhaps that was her.

>> No, no, she doesn't know anyone in

Tranley.

>> Oh, this one didn't know it. And she was

going to stay along with the other one's

mother. See, place called uh Clemetus

Cottage. Yeah, she was a dark young

lady. She had a blue suitcase with

initials uh what was it? Uh ML,

something like that.

>> No, she's blonde and that's not her

initials.

Cool.

See what he g me.

>> Nice. Is it

till he saw them go. I see him watching

right up to the time you drove off.

Looking over his paper he was as though

he didn't want no one to notice.

>> Oh, you got murders on the brain.

>> Who wouldn't after what's been happening

around there lately?

>> But this girl was dark and he said she

was sad. If he's the one thereafter,

he's not going to tell you, is he? All I

see is when you first come in there, he

never had them flowers. Now it's your

business to go to the police like what

it says here.

>> Well, it was your idea. Why don't you

tell him?

>> You were the one who drove and you were

the one that was talking to him.

>> It don't look much like him to me.

>> Oh, it's him, I tell you. And the sooner

he's out of the way, the better we shall

sleep at nights. What about poor old

Fred's Mrs. and his kids? Eh, cool.

Might have been you.

>> Well, then I told him what her initials

were. ML. And he said, "Well, she's a

blonde, and those aren't her initials."

>> What else?

>> Nothing else. He just went out.

>> Is there a florist in the high street?

No sir, there's one in George Street.

>> Put a control on the station, bus stops,

all rows leading out of the town, and

warn the boys at the hotel.

>> Yes, sir.

You stop here.

Let's get some of this down.

Good afternoon.

>> I'm a police officer. Miss Lester live

here.

>> Yes.

>> There's a note for her.

>> Oh, will you wait a minute?

>> A note for you, dear. A policeman

brought it.

>> Thank you.

>> Not bad news, I hope.

I don't understand. Look.

Why me?

Bit odd, isn't it?

>> Are you going?

>> I suppose I shall have to. He says it's

urgent.

>> Where did they find the man?

>> I don't know, miss. I was on patrol when

he was arrested.

I'm terribly sorry, but it never

occurred to either of us that

>> Oh, it's not your fault. I'd like to see

that note.

>> She took it with her. She seemed very

surprised.

>> What was he like, this man?

>> Well, he was dark and very tall. Taller

than you are.

>> And they went towards Walsham.

>> No, towards the ranges.

>> The ranges?

>> Yes.

>> Thank you, madam.

>> Ranges. Quick, come on.

You've passed the turning.

>> Which is that?

>> Why the one back there? This isn't the

Walsh road.

>> This is a shortcut.

>> But it can't be. It only goes down to

the ranges.

>> It goes through Walsh.

[music]

Nothing

going on over there.

Hey, stop.

>> Are you all right?

>> Yes.

>> Where'd he get you? in the fine.

>> All right, I'm going after him. Evans,

get him off to hospital. Get through the

police headquarters and the camp and

take Miss Lester with you. Which way did

you go?

>> Over there.

>> That way.

>> Please be careful.

>> All right, then you go back with

Sergeant Evans.

>> All right, Try to get him back to the

car.

>> Your man is all right.

>> Yeah, we're all right.

Heat. Heat.

They're back.

They remain safely.

There's someone on the ranger sir.

I say, "What's all this about someone

out there on the ranges?"

>> The police have just been through on the

phone, sir. It's this chap they want for

the Anstead murders. Apparently, he's

just killed two more. He's out there

somewhere, and they wanted us to drive

through and see if we can pick him up.

>> Oh. Oh, good. Sure. Well, you get it

organized, will you? Yes, sir.

>> I'll just pop over and get my docks. Our

job is to sweep through the entire range

area like that until we link up with the

police who are doing the same thing from

the other end.

They've already got patrols out along

the main road here. So, it's my guess

that he'll turn south towards the sea

and try and make for a boat. Anyway, the

only place he could possibly hide up

would be in one of these huts near the

lighthouse. There may be another chap

out there on the ranges. He's a police

inspector, but he's in civis, so we

don't want any mistakes.

Don't go blazing away at the first chap

you see. Challenge him. And then if he

shows fight, let him have it in the

legs. All right, boy over there.

Hey, can you see him? Yes, he's over by

the castle. Right. Bring the camp and

tell them I'm going onto the lighthouse.

Right.

the railway station. They've got a

machine gun down by those steps.

Look, you can see them there, sir.

Good.

I thought those had been kept. They're

supposed to have been. They must have

come up from the beach, sir.

Aoy.

Ahoy there.

>> Look, ma'am, there's Uncle Fred up

there.

Well, if he thinks I'm taking his tea up

there, he can think again.

Get away from there.

Here he comes now.

[music]

[music]

All right, stay where you are and keep

your mouth shut.

There's someone leaving the lighthouse,

sir.

Hold it. It's Viner.

That came from the second hut over

there.

Would

you like us to blast him, Ar?

>> No, I'll talk to him through the PA.

>> Sergeant, put the loudspeaker through

the window.

>> Now listen, Carl, or whatever your name

is, this is the superintendent of

police. I'll give you exactly 15 seconds

to come out. Put your hand above your

head and walk slowly towards the

lighthouse.

>> Right,

now

we shall have to get rough. Can you put

a burst through that roof without

hitting him?

>> I don't know, sir. The light's pretty

bad. Think you can manage it, sir,

major?

>> I think so, sir.

Sergeant, tell the search lights to

swing around and cover that hut.

>> I hope he won't spo his looks.

>> He'll be all right, sir.

>> All right, you two, come on up here in

front of this window.

Come on, hurry it up.

You stay where you are.

>> Stop them firing, Harry. There's a woman

and a couple of kids in there. rubbish.

They're all cleared out.

>> They're in there, I tell you. I've seen

them from here.

>> All right. The troops will get him out.

>> I want him in the dock, not a coffin.

I'm going to get him.

>> Now, listen to me, Jack. Don't be a

fool.

>> He belongs to the jury. That's what you

said, wasn't it?

>> Never mind what I said. You'll do as

you're told. Do you understand? Do you

hear me? Hello. Hello.

>> Talking to myself again.

>> Is he all right?

>> Depends what you mean by all right. In 2

minutes, I'll be able to tell you

whether you're marrying a lunatic or a

corpse. Fire. Fire.

The leg's only a surface wound, but the

arm's a bit more serious. Can it be all

>> Well, we'll need an X-ray, but there is

a chance it may not be broken.

>> Well, never mind his arm. What about the

bullet?
