"THE SECRET PLACE"

I love you, honest I do,
I do simply anything for you, but you...

...I guess you must be made of ice,

the way you treat me is anything but nice...

I love you, clearly I do, I'd do
everything you want me to, but you...

...you want to make me an easy flat.

I find your someone new and how about that.

Change your ways, baby, be good,
love me right, just like you should...

...kiss my lips, give me a hug...
I wanna feel snug as a bug in a rug.

So don't be out each time I call...

...got the sweetest dreams,
I got them all, but you...

...and yet you could be oh so nice...

...so take me, take me,
take me right to paradise.

Mum, I told you Mike and I'd do that.

Don't you worry about me.

You run along to work, I'll manage.

But you don't have to, we
can do it this evening.

I've heard that before.

Ever since you met that Gerry Carter,
you've been out every night.

Mum, not again, please.

Well, you don't seem to
care about me anymore.

What's up?

Mike, can you mend my gramophone?
I busted it again.

Yeah, stick it in my room.

Tell Gerry I'll meet him at
Steve's place, lunchtime.

Okay.

Bye mum, can't stop, I'm late.

Good morning Mrs. Harris.

- Bye Mom.
- Bye dear.

- Hello Freddie!
- You're eight minutes late.

Yes, I know, I shall get
the sack, shan't I?

If your boss is angry with you
for being late, I'll explain.

Thank you.

I'll say it was all my fault.

- Ten Players please. Please.
- Yes.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Freddie, be a dear,

...on your way back, nip into Coopers and
get me another one of these, will you?

What's this?

It's for you.

�For me?

�Go on, open it!

Don't you like it?

Yes, of course I do.

But you shouldn't have done, Freddie,
it must have been ever so expensive.

No, it wasn't, I made it.

You did?

It's lovely, it's just what I wanted to.

You must have second sight.

No, I haven't,

...I heard you saying you needed
another to wear with your black dress.

You're a strange kid, aren't you?

You'd better hurry up or
you'll be late for school.

Alright.

See tea time then.

An ounce of Dickinson, please.

And thanks!

I'm sorry, Harry, I'd do a
lot for you, but not this.

What am I going to tell Gerry?

Tell him to stick to selling cars.

Morning Harry.

You're late.

Yeah, I... missed the bus this morning.

You missed the bus years ago.

He hasn't fallen through, has he?

I see Steve's here.

Do me a favor, mind your own business.

Where's Gerry?

Molly sent a message for him.

Give it him later, he's busy right now.

Now look, Gerry, there's one there,

there...

inside the door,

...there and there.

And if we make one false move
and someone gets suspicious,

...all they've got to do is
reach out and push the switch..

Okay, Steve, I get the idea.

I want you to look at this and go on
looking until you've learned it blindfold.

How's this?

Dad, Gerry, this is serious.

Now can't you understand, once we're
inside, if we slip up, there's no way out.

The second one of these things
goes off, we're trapped.

We can't afford even a small mistake.

Why do you think I made this?

Oh, you like doing it, Steve.

You get a kick out of paper like I
get a kick out of the real thing.

It's always different when you get there.

Sorry, Steve.

Now tell me what I missed out.

It's the only way to find out the snags.

Right, here we go.

- Come into the outer office...
- Mm-hmm...

She shows us into the waiting room.

Right.

- ...We follow...
- Yeah...

I close the door after the girl.

Now, not the girl, we've got
to make sure she goes back.

Of course she goes, she meets her boyfriend
for lunch every day at one o'clock.

Women very often enjoy being unreliable.

I'll take care of her.

No, no... all we need is
to get her to the desk.

Well, Harry can phone her.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Timing's going to be tricky.

Wait a minute...

Yeah, I think Charlie Mason can do it.

Look, here's the phone booth.

Right, you come straight to this window,

...Charlie sees you, and rings.

Back over here...

You close the door behind her...

...and we wait for Venner.

Venner pulls back the shutter,
sees me, opens up and then...

But this is what you've got to
look out for, the alarm push.

Get him clear of it.

There's one in every room, Gerry,

...you've got to remember where they are.

Oh, you'll take care of that, Steve.

...you'll remember..

Oh, come on, Harry, meet Mr Venner.

Charlie Mason's just been round.

Ah, good.

No, it was, er...

He said to tell you he won't drive for us.

What?

Why?

He said to tell you... he only
works with professionals.

OK, I never trusted Charlie anyway.

We could try to get hold of Johnson.

Yeah, do that.

No, I've just been on the blower,

...he's inside and Palmer's out of town.

Don't worry, Harry.

I'll find someone.

I'd rather it was you
doing the looking, Steve.

Why?

Gerry's all right.

He'll find someone.

Anything wrong with it?

There's a couple of them finished.

I'll take this one.

I hear he was looking for someone to drive.

Well, I could...

Well, remember when those bogeys
was nosing around about that car?

I didn't let you down, did I?

No, you did all right.

I could learn...

See, I...

I could work your way.

Give me a try, Gerry.

Doing anything dinner time?

No.

Come along to the turntable.

Harry'll tell you where.

Thanks!

You're on the right business, ain't you?

Well, let's say I don't
work for the tax man.

OK, Joan,

...put him in a box for him.

OK, Mr Waring.

Yeah, let's hear if the
Jimmy Parker's, is in this.

I can't stand here playing
records for you all day.

I'm not going to stand for it.

You are not the boss in this outfit.

Look, Mike, get it straight,
there's nothing personal in this.

I've got it straight, all right.

You don't like Gerry working
with no one but you.

Hey, Gerry, we've got to
have a professional driver.

He wouldn't do it.

He wouldn't do it, Steve!

What happened?

Oh l said we were...

I said it was too risky.

So that's it, then.

We're going through with this, Steve.

- What, without a uniform?
- Yes.

The whole thing depends on it.

That one split second when Venner opens
the shutter and faces a policeman.

So he finds a plainclothes man.

No, a man in a raincoat
waving a little bit of card.

Doesn't make the same impact.

OK, so we've got to have a uniform.

You're the brains, get one.

By tomorrow?

Yes.

I could fix it.

Face it, Gerry, Gerry, it'll take weeks.

What did you say?

I can get a copper's uniform.

There's a kid I know,
his father's a copper.

One of your mob?

No, old Haywood's kid.

He could nip in easy and get a
uniform when his dad was out.

What's he like?

You've seen him, Gerry.

He's the one that brings
Molly a cup of tea.

Would he do it?

Of course he would.

I'll get Molly to ask him.

�Molly?

Yeah, he'd do anything for her.

Why?

I don't know.

He thinks the world of her.

He's always hanging around her kiosk.

No, Gerry, don't bring him into it.

Why not?

Nothing's going to happen to him.

We're not asking him to steal anything.

We just want him to borrow his dad's uniform
for a couple of hours, like Mike said.

And when we make front page news?

Once it's over, he won't be able to open his
mouth without landing his father in it.

So the poor kid hasn't a chance, has he?

You with me, Stephen?

Yeah.

What's Mike doing here?

Mum gave me permission.

Same as you. Como a ti.

We want you to help us, Molly.

Me?

Yeah, we run into a bit of bad luck.

Is it to do it?

Yeah.

But you know I wouldn't ask
you to do anything risky.

It's just something we want to borrow.

What is it?

This kid that hangs around your kiosk.

�Freddy?

Do you think you could get him to borrow one
of his dad's uniforms for a couple of hours?

For you?

Do this for us, Molly.

Might it'll be ever so difficult.

Nobody will ever know where it came from.

Yes, I know, but how could I ask him?

Oh, Steve will think of something.

We've got to have a uniform
or everything's off.

Everything.

Wouldn't it be better to go to one
of those costume hire places?.

Why do you think we were having one made?

But...

It's the first place they check on,

Freddy wouldn't mind.

You keep out of this.

Well?

When do you want me to ask him?

Today.

All right, Gerry, I'll try.

Good girl.

Come on, let's eat.

You go ahead and order.

Molly, what do you think that boy's going to
feel when he finds out you've cheated him?

He's only a kid, he won't see it that way.

You don't even know what
it's all about, do you?

Would you have done this for
Gerry when you first met him?

Before you fell in love with him,
before you knew what we were doing?

Would you?

No.

The minute you ask that kid,
you're in it as deep as we are.

But you want me to ask him, don't you?

It's so easy to drift into things, Molly,

...but it's so hard to get out again..

Don't worry about me, Steve.

I can look after myself.

I hope so.

I really hope so.

It's just something that two
friends of mine want to borrow.

I said I could get it from you.

You're doubling a copper,
be just the right person.

Oh, it's only for a joke, Freddy.

Does it matter a lot to you?

Yes, it does.

I'd feel ever so bad letting them down.

How much is that?

Three shillings.

Thank you.

Everything okay?

Yes, tomorrow.

Hang it up, there's a good boy.

Thank you.

Oh, Teddy's going to sit there, is he?

Come on, what about you?
Get up there, come on.

There... pick it up.

Both sit up and Teddy and you are
both going to have some milk.

Yes?

Who's going to have it first? You or Teddy?

Yes, Teddy first.

I like tea best.

I know, but milk's good for you.

Now come on, drink it.

Why...?

Oh, dear, I can't get him
to drink his milk lately.

Do you want to grow up and be a big
strong policeman like your daddy?

- �Eh?
- No.

�Oh!

He won't drink it.

He wants tea, like us.

Freddy, don't talk with your
mouth full, it's bad manners.

You don't do that!

Why can't you leave him alone?
He's only a baby.

Oh, Stephen, look at that,
he's hardly eaten a thing.

All right, come on then.

I expect Molly Wilson's
been giving him chocolates.

Well, I wish she wouldn't.

And another thing, Dennis, he shouldn't go
trailing after her the way that he does.

It's not right him seeing so
much of that family of hers,

...you will have to put a stop to it..

You mothers, you, mother's...

...you always think your children are too
good to mix with the rest of the world.

You men always taking him by a pretty face.

Not that I pull a pretty mind, I
think she looks what she is...

...common!

Well, there's no need to go on about it.

Oh, it's not only me you know,

...you ought to know how Mrs Harris
was when I met her this morning...

I wouldn't believe everything
that old cat tells you.

Molly Wilson's a very good-natured girl.

Everybody knows that they're
a rotten lot, that family.

The girl can't be any different.

It's in the blood, Dennis,
you can't get away from it.

She's no better than that father of
hers, I wouldn't trust a one inch.

You're lying to say that, it's all lies!

Freddy!

Molly isn't what you said, she's
the nicest person I've ever met.

She's my best friend.

Who said you can join in? Go and push off!

Let me cut this kid!

Beat it!

Come on let's get out of here.

Isn't it quiet?

Gerry, please tell me before
we go in,who we're visiting?

Do I know them?

Don't worry, you'll like
them, they're nice people.

Go on, open it...

open the door.

Two recept, two bed, one bath
and kitchen, all mod cons.

This is the drawing room.

Like it?

Gerry, it's the most beautiful
room I've ever seen.

Oh, it's a wonderful
blow for dancing onto...

Haven't seen the rest of it.

Go on, it's not wet.

Oh, it's Lovely.

Funny you being like this.

At the kitchen sink and liking it.

�Disappointed?

Surprised.

This is the bedroom.

�Bathroom!

Look at all that space and no buildings.

Looks so clean.

Gerry, I always dreamed of
living in a place like this.

I must have second sight.

I wanted to live in a
place that was elegant.

All the people are nice
and beautifully dressed.

No one comes home at night drunk, singing
and shouting like they do in Gentry Street.

I hate the sound of their voices.

I never want to go back there
anymore, Gerry, never.

You don't have to.

Not now...

...not ever.

It's too good, it's like
being given too much,

You think there's been a mistake
and it was meant for someone else.

This is our world, Molly.

And Keeps.

Oh I love you Gerry.

Steve...

...found these last night..

What you were saying about disguise?

Thought they might attract attention.

Good idea, how's the fit?

Ah, it's okay.

Just.

What you haven't got you can't lose,

How are we for time?

If you want to know the
time, ask your policeman.

Ten minutes to go.

Turn the corner up.

Sorry kid, we had to have a professional.

Oh really, anxious?

Brought the tickets?

Yeah.

Be ready to leave the
minute Christian goes.

Right.

Okay, Mike.

You're right, the place
is crawling with bogeys.

They're coming this way.

Ah, it's okay.

It's all yours.

You too.

See you next Monday then, use your time.

I'm so sorry.

After you, sir.

No, after you, officer.

Terribly stupid of me.

Good morning, can I help you?

My name is Benford from Gray's Inn Road.

This is Inspector Harvey from the yard.

I'd like to see Mr. Venner.

Have you an appointment?

No, I'm afraid not.

But would you let Mr. Venner
know that we're here?

Oh well, just a moment.

Mr. Venner, there's a gentleman
here to see you from Scotland Yard.

Oh yes, there's a constable with him.

It's rather urgent.

It's rather urgent.

Yes, all right, I'll do that.

Would you come this way, please?

Mr. Venner will be with you in a moment.

Oh, thank you.

Would you mind seeing
they're not disturbed?

Oh yes, of course.

I shouldn't think anyone
will come at this time.

Thank you, miss.

Please don't let us keep
you from your lunch.

Oh, that's all right.

I'm not going out to lunch today.

Oh, you know, I do envy people
like you having exciting work.

Oh, it's only a job just like any other.

Get used to it.

Oh, isn't that strange?

627, what a coincidence.

That's the number of my uncle's car.

That's my telephone.

Excuse me a moment.

Look, Gerry, it's going wrong.

We've got to call it off.

No, we can't use this police gimmick twice.

If we back out now, it's finished.

It's all right, Steve.

Ah, good morning, sir.

This is Inspector Harvey.

Like to have a word with you.

Yes, of course.

Good morning, gentlemen.

What can I do for you, Inspector?

Mr. Venner.

Just a minute, Van Winkle.

I wonder if you'd mind coming inside.

Won't be a moment.

It is perfect, Mr. Venner.

Now it is perfect.

Even you will admit.

Bring it in and let's have a look.

If necessary, I'll manage, Venner.

You take care of it, Van Winkle.

Yes, an excellent piece of work.

Danke, Mr. Venner.

Beautiful, really beautiful.

He's one of the best cutters I've got.

Been with me for years.

But he is very temperamental.

I have to keep him happy.

You can't park here, Jimmy.

�Steve!

Come on!

Oh, well, I'm afraid I wouldn't
know anything about it anyway.

Oh, Mr. Venner can see you now.

Oh, Mr. Venner, just go into
the workshop if you want him.

Oh, thank you.

Get in!

Now look, Mr. Christian.

There's nothing wrong with them stones.

They'll fetch a price.

Yes, indeed.

But as far as I'm concerned, Mr. Brown.

That handful has no value at all.

No value? Why, they're twice
as big as the others.

And twice as variable.

Or twice as dangerous.

They're too big.

At least five different people have a
detailed description of this stone,

And by now the police.

All I could do with them is
hang them from my chandelier.

So what do you expect us to do?

Cut them in half?

No, why not?

I'm sure Mr. Christian knows of a cutter.

No need of raging.

In the meantime, I'll pay for these...

No.

At the agreed price, of course.

No, Mr. Christian, it's a lot or nothing.

We'll be ready to do business with
you when you find us a cutter.

Very well.

I'll keep in touch with Mr. Brown.

Goodbye, Mr. Carter.

Let's keep our fingers crossed, shall we?

All right.

Now look, Paddy, he'll be
here himself in half a minute

I should have known better than get
mixed up with a bunch of amateurs.

What did you say?

You know the terms, we agreed.

You'll get your money, ring Harry,
he'll tell you when to collect it.

Now get out.

Not with my pockets empty.

Do you think you'll find us a cutter?

Well, if he does not got contacts,

...better put these in the
safe, 23 large, 12 small.

Oh, no, Gerry, this is a clearing station,

...And a clearing station's
got to be kept clear.

That's logic.

�Steve!

Not his place or yours.

If the bogeys get on to
anyone, it'll be you two.

Yeah, he's right, Gerry.

In a couple of hours, every police station
in town will have our descriptions.

I only meant I wanted my share.

I'll settle for three of them.

Molly.

We stashing at Molly's place.

Here, you can't do that!

Steve, get this uniform
back to Molly right away.

And drop Paddy off, okay?

Sure.

Now I can breathe again.

Molly, there's been a
slight change of plan.

Gerry and I won't be
leaving town for a bit.

Have you got it all right, Molly?

Yes, of course I have.

Here you are...

You're a real friend, �aren't you, Freddy?

Well, you'd better hurry
up and take it home.

Shall I come back later and fetch a cuppa?

No, dear, I'm knocking off early today.

Tell you what, why don't you
pop over to my place later on?

Tell me how you got on.

Okay.

Ten tabs, please.

I've only got twenty.

Badly.

Eh Mike, there's a man looking for you.

For me?

Yeah, a tall man in a
raincoat, wearing a hat.

Nice looking, too.

Well, next time he calls,
let him knock on my door.

He's just my type.

Don't leave him here, Gerry.

It ain't safe.

Can't you see they're watching the place.

They must have tailed you.

They find out I work for
Harry so they come up here.

What the hell's the matter
with you, you gibbering idiot?

Go on, open.

But Gerry...

...that man in the raincoat...

...it's a dead certainty he was a copper.

For Pete's sake.

How many men in raincoats
you see every day?

- Is that your room?
- Yeah.

Now, come on!

I want to get out of here
before your mother gets back.

That's another thing, Gerry...

My mother... she goes poking her
nose in all over the place.

She won't find these.

It's him, Gerry.

He's come back.

It's next door.

You shall recognize it, you live here.

It does this work?

A gramophone?

Does it work?

Yeah, I fixed it.

Quick, get the works back in.

Record?

What's you doing?

Testing for sound.

Don't go, Gerry!

Don't leave it here.

I could work your way,
give me a try, Gerry.

You always wanted to show
me how smart you were,

...now's your chance.

Stay here and don't leave it.

And relax, act natural.

I won't let you down, Gerry.

You better not.

�Freddy!

I've taken these for you.

Oh, how sweet of you!

Have you been waiting long?

No, not very.

Oh, sorry, Mike...

...I just wanted to see if
you'd fixed my gramophone.

Your..

Oh, the gramophone, yeah, it's fixed.

Thanks a lot.

It's all yours, Freddy.

I promised you you could have
it one day, so here you are.

He can't have it, Molly.

Why on earth not?

Well, I haven't finished with it yet.

I thought you said you had.

No.

No, I...

I've got to go over the spring again,

Well, can't you fix it now?

No, no, I can't.

I don't see why not.

Freddy wouldn't mind waiting, would you?

No.

Oh, can't you? You see,
I promised it to him.

And I don't want him to be disappointed.

Tell you what.

...I've only got to file
down a bit of rough metal,

You'd like to take it home
right now, wouldn't you, kid?

Yes.

Well, I'll...

...I'll pop over and get it back
when I've got time to fix it.

�Hum?

To Freddy with love from Molly.

Thanks, Molly.

It's a smashing present.

Well...

...the sooner you run along home,
the sooner you can try it out, eh?

What's all that about the gramophone?
It's not yours.

No, it's not mine.

...but the sixty thousand quids
where the diamond's inside it

...happen to be in my care.

�Mike!

You must be out of your mind.

What made you put them in my gramophone?

That was Gerry's idea.

How could you let me do it?

Why?

You're as safe as the Bank of England.

Who's going to look for
them in a copper's house?

Who?

You know, Gerry'll kill you
when he finds out about this.

Well, he doesn't have to know, does he?

I can collect it any time Gerry wants it.

Oh, that poor kid.

Thanking us for it and...

...you plant that lot on him.

How could you be such a fool?

Getting him to pinch his dad's uniform,

...was doing the kid a favor, I suppose.

60.000 POUNDS GEM RAID BY FAKE POLICE

It's me.

Are your mum and dad in?

No, only me and Johnny.

I was just getting Johnny's milk.

You know, I was talking to Mike and...

...he said he thought he could fix
your gramophone this evening.

Oh, all right.

Oh, Freddy, I feel ever so thirsty.

Would you get me a glass of water?

OK.

It's because of the uniform, isn't it?

It wasn't for a joke like you said...

...It was for that!

My mother always said you told lies.

No one will find out it
was your dad's uniform.

You told me a lie.

You weren't ever my friend.

You just pretended because
my dad was a policeman.

Oh, no, that isn't true.

Get out!

Get out! Go away! Why don't you go away?

Stop it, you're not a play!

But you didn't tell me not
to play the gramophone.

It's not my gramophone, It's hers.

Go on, go back to bed.

What a place gotten into you?

Couldn't ask anybody back?

What a couple of deadbeats.

Clayton, 4563.

Now this is Gerry Carter.

Mr. Christian?.

Yes.

Yes, that'll be OK.

Tomorrow?

Fine.

Goodbye, Mr. Christian.

That was Christian.

Fabian of the Yard, your brother.

Has he found a cutter?

Yes, all fixed.

Mike, first thing in the morning,
you'll go and get that gramophone back.

But what if he's told his dad, Gerry?

Supposing the burglar...

All right!

I'll handle it.

Let him have a lie-in.

If he isn't better by this evening, I'm
going to take him round to the doctor.

I don't think he's ill.

I think he's fretting over something.

His light was on very late last night.

You should have gone in and
asked him what's the matter.

I didn't like to.

They're funny at that age.

Funny?

I suppose he's growing up.

You never know what goes on
in a child's heart, do you?

Don't worry, dear.

If it's anything important,
we'll find a way to help him.

Goodbye dear.

- Don't be late to lunch!
- All right, bye bye.

Mrs. Haywood?

Yes.

I'm sorry to disturb you, but
I promised Mike Wilson...

I'd call in for his sister's gramophone..

Oh, dear...

...I thought Molly'd
given it to our Freddy.

Oh, yes, of course she did, only Mike
hadn't quite finished repairing it.

Oh, I see.

�Freddy!

Freddy, come down here a minute, dear.

And bring your gramophone with you.

This gentleman's going to take it
away to have it mended for you.

I'm not going to give it to him.

�Freddy!

I expect he doesn't want
to be parted from it.

I'll bring it back this evening for sure.

With the way it is now, it
might conk out any minute.

And then you'd be sorry.

You go back there and bring
that gramophone down at once.

Oh, dear, it's getting moody.

I'm so sorry.

Come inside and have a cup of tea.

Some tea for you, Freddy?

No, thanks, Mum.

Where is it? Are they upstairs?

I'm not going to tell you.

Go up and get them!

�No!

Don't think you can get away with this.

Do you know what would happen if
anybody found out you got them?

Your dad would be in real trouble.

And Molly.

You hadn't thought of that, had you?

What have happened to
your lovely gramophone?

I dropped it.

Dropped it?

It wouldn't take much to smash it.

I expect Mike will be able to fix it okay.

Are you sure you won't stop
and have a cup of tea?

I am sorry, but I must
be getting along now.

Now remember, one word out of
you, and your dad will be in it.

Up to his neck.

Oh, goodbye.

I do hope he will be able
to fix that all right.

Oh, yeah, it'll be all right.

Goodbye.

Goodbye, Mrs. Haywood.

Those are your diamonds?

What's you tell?

I'll give it some s'mores.

Okay.

Oh, we're okay so far.

That's a matter of opinion.

I got here as quick as I could, Gerry.

Where's Steve?

He wasn't there.

Harry's trying to find him,

We'll have to handle it
between us, won't we?

The diamonds are in there.

So's the kid.

We've got to get him.

Now?

We'll have to watch the place.

You go round the back, Mike.

His mother's gone shopping.

There's no one there on Saturday morning.

Thanks.

You stay here, I'm going to get Steve.

I can't wait any longer, Harry.

You'll have to tell him.

Wait and tell him yourself.

I like to keep out of
other people's business.

Oh, well wait it.

Thank God you're here.

Harry told you?

Mm-hmm.

Well, Mike's a dead loss,
and I can't trust Paddy.

Half for you and me.

I can't do it, Gerry.

I'm sorry, Gerry.

Still a few things I draw the line at.

You didn't think of saying
that before, did you?

We should never have used
the boy in the first place.

Oh, so now you only have to
dirty your lily-white hands

...now you start drawing lines?

That's not very fair, Gerry.

What you don't see, you don't mind.

Oh, yes, you want the reward,
same as the rest of us...

...but you want somebody
else to do the dirty work.

I've always stood by you, this time
it happens to be a little different.

Yes, this time it's gone wrong.

That's not why I'm leaving, you know it.

All I know is you're ratting on me.

Stick with me, Steve.

We'll work it the way you want.

That's just what you won't do, Gerry.

Quit now, and you'll quit for good.

All right.

I quit.

You made a mistake there, Gerry.

Shut up!

Let's have another look.

Gosh... it's bigger than
my mum's engagement ring.

For God's sake, I'm giving all I've got.

Father's just gone in.

And the kid?

Still in there.

How's Freddy?

Oh, he's been ever so strange.

You know that gramophone, the one that Molly
Wilson gave him that he was so pleased with?

Mm-hmm.

It's smashed to pieces.

No.

He says he dropped it. I don't
believe one word of it.

Dinner will be ready soon.

Here.

Couldn't you go up and have
a little chat with him?

You know, try and find
out what it's all about.

Yeah.

You coming down?

I'm not hungry, Dad.

That's all right.

Can I come in?

Yes.

These last couple of days, Freddy...

You've been acting like there was...

...something worrying you...

I don't want to pry,

or ask a lot of questions...

It's just that...

...if there's something on your mind,.

That's making you unhappy...

...if you'd like to tell me about it,

...you might find it
wasn't anything important.

It's all right, Dad.

There's nothing the matter.

I don't think that's quite true.

Don't you trust me, Freddy?

Yes, Dad, I do.

Then if you could trust me
enough, tell me about it.

There's nothing to tell.

Thanks, Dad.

It's about Freddy.

...something's been happening these
last few days that upset him..

I thought maybe you might be able
to throw some light on the matter.

Well, he's always talking about you.

I thought maybe you might have some idea.

No, I'm sorry, Mr. Haywood,
he hasn't told me anything.

Well, uh...

Well, next time you have a chat...

if he should say anything
which strikes you as, um...

Well, if only you could try
and get him to confide...

You and Mrs. Haywood couldn't...

Oh, I think he might...

...find it easier talking to you..

You see, he told us..

...that you were his best friend.

It's worthy.

Yeah, where'd you get it?

In the outskirts.

Oh.

Come on, Mae.

Ciao.

We can't miss a chance like this.

But Gerry, you didn't mean
me to go to his house.

Oh, who cares what he meant.

What am I going to say to him?

Pull your old pal act.

Molly, you've got to do it.

OK...

But don't come back here.

I'll wait around the corner by the bridge.

Right.

Bit dodgy.

Mr. Haywood asked you?

Yes, he did.

You see, he said that...

But I mean, I thought you and Mr.
Haywood must have...

You'd better come inside.

I thought I'd just pop round because Mr.
Haywood seemed so worried.

We both are, but really I...

I bought him these sweets.

I thought they might cheer him up a bit.

I thought if I gave them to him myself,

...I might be able to get him to talk.

- You'd better come upstairs.
- Thank you.

Here's a visitor to see you, Freddie.

What did you come here for?

Freddie, last night I didn't
know about the gramophone.

Of course you knew about it.

That's why you gave it to me.

No, I didn't. You've got to believe me.

Look, why do you think I
came over afterwards?

I came to get it back.

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

Won't you give them back to us?

That's why you came here.

No.

Please, Freddie.

No. I'm going to give them back to Mr.
Venner.

No, you can't do that.

We'd all be caught.

No. I'm going to give them back, so
he won't know where they came from.

Why? He doesn't care if
he gets them back or not.

He'll get the insurance money.

The way we looked at it,
nobody would suffer, and...

...we'd be a lot better off.

You and Gerry?

Yeah, me and Gerry.

Oh, if only you weren't so young...

How can a kid like you understand?

Look, please, Freddie.

Please be my friend just this once more.

Aren't you going to give them to me?

Don't you like me at all, Freddie?

No. I hate you.

Did you get them?

No.

What went wrong? Didn't you
pull the old pal's act?

Yes, I did.

But it's never been an act, Gerry.
I've always been fond of him.

Oh, my God.

Oh, Gerry, that kid really loved me.

What?

He loved me!

And I just... Oh, what did Steve call it?

I just...

Steve? What's he been saying?

You didn't listen to him, did you?
Steve's just a...

He doesn't even know his own mind.

Molly, whose side are you on?

You're not walking out on me, are you?

No, Gerry. I'm with you.

Oh, then snap out of it.

In that house, there are...

There are 60,000 quids worth of diamonds.

What's he going to do with them?

Well?

He said he was going to
give them back to Venner.

What are you going to do?

That little swine wouldn't
give them to her.

When I get my hands on that.

So what is he going to do, then?

He thinks he's taking them back to Venner.

Does he now?

Wait till it's dark.

Mum and Dad.

Mr Venner: Diamond house,
Hatton Garden. London.

Dear Mr. Venner:

I am going to hide your diamonds...

...in the old tower...

...in Gentry Street.

You will find them...

Let's go look to the Jumpers...
come on sell.

You want to buy this?

Well, what have we here?

One of the crown jewels?

You could fix it into a ring.

It's nice of the dirty
old things you've got.

How much you give me?

It's got a good shine to it.

Tell me...

Where have you found this stone?

I bought it from a girl I know.

I had to buy a three.

Young lady, I think it's best
you should come along with me.

Alf?

Why?

Come on.

Well now, you say you
bought it from your friend,

...who bought it from another girl.

But none of you know where it came from.

That's right.

What's your friend's name?

Rosie Thompson.

Where's she live?

31 Brain Street.

Well, thanks very much, Mrs. Thompson,
You're daughter was a great help to us.

Oh, go on, dear,

...tell him who gave you the diamond.

Oh, go on, dear.

What we want to know is...

...who did you buy it from?

What would you give me for tell you?

He'll be here all night.

He's in no hurry.

Why should he be?

Come on, boys.

Get ready now. You know what time it is?

No time it is.

Yeah, yeah...

Well, it's a bit tricky, see.

Aren't you come pally?

- No, I can't.
- Why not?

Well, I've got a date, see.

Well, let's bring in our friend.

The light's still on.

I'll check with Mike. You stay here.
Hang on.

Just going to nip in the back for a second.

There he is!

Hold tight.

Drive around the side entrance.

How much is a half fare
to Newcastle, please?

One pound and three pence each the single.

Seven...

Eight...

Nine...

Eighty...

Can I have a ticket to York instead?

Driving in alone, son?

No, my mother's waiting
for me on the platform.

If we can park the little things on floor,

...we'll manage to carry them.

Looks about fourteen.

Bought a ticket for York.

Get up.

Dear dad and mum...

I've done something very wrong.

If you find out, you'll have to report it.

And Dad will get into trouble.

So if I go away, you can't ask me about it.

I've enough money until I get a job.

So please don't worry.

I'm sorry, I know I
should not have done it.

Love, Freddy.

There not here either.

Not! They are not home anymore.

Now, where are they?

If you don't tell me, you
know what I'm going to do.

I'm going to kill you.

What were you doing by that old tower?

Is that where you've hidden the diamonds?

Was it inside the building?

Which building was it?

The one you were running out of.

I found it here.

And did you show it to your brother?

No, I gave it to Suzie.

The railway police have
just reported a boy...

...answering Freddy's
description at King's Cross.

He booked a ticket for York,
but wasn't on the train.

You'd better put out a district call.

The cops are at Haywood's place now.

Our only chance is to get
out while the going's good.

Where's Gerry?

How do I know?

You saw him last week.

When did you see him?

Does he even know about the cops?

Gerry can take care of himself.

Will you come in?

No, I'm going to find Gerry.

I've got to find him and warn him.

You're crazy.

Love crazy.

Do you think he won't ditch you?

Gerry! Gerry stop, you must stop!

That's it, that hole there.

Back up and keep the engine running.

Come on!

Gerry, it's Molly.

Turn you back and cut it off!

�Molly!

�Molly!

Molly, don't move!

Don't move back!

�Gerry!

Come back, the police are at the Haywood's!

The police?

Who cares?

�Gerry!

There Molly, there it is!

Don't give them to him, Moll!

Please!

Molly, what are you waiting for?

Sorry, Freddy, it's too
late to change things now.

No, it isn't.

Come on, Molly!

Molly, there's your chance,
what are you waiting for?

Molly, are you crazy?

Please!

Come on Freddy!

�Molly!

�Freddy!

Run! Go on run!

Are they still up there?

Yes, there are three of them.

You three get round the back.

Perry on the left, Smith on the right.

Spread out in the entrance
and then move in.

Please let him go, Gerry.

There's still time for us to get away.

Will catch the night train.

They wouldn't find us!

Oh Gerry don't be so!

...we have each other and
we still could handle it!

�Gerry!

�Freddy!

I hope you'll be happy
with your new boyfriend.

We've got him, sir!

�Molly!

�Molly!

Thanks, Molly.
