The Bell | Inspector Cross | BBC Radio Drama | When the Sound Means Death

[music] We present the bell by Vincent Mcane with James Ellis as Inspector Crust. [singing and music] [music] Mrs. Morren Margaret. >> So, you're finished, father. Here, some tea. And his grace. >> Not the same man who used to sit in the prestory of St. Mary's with me, I'm afraid. Although, still gets up with the Morning star. It's agreed. >> Just think the crypt, a bingo, a bar. What were they all feel? I wonder those poor souls buried under there. >> Little they know. There's a firm comes in now and exumes the bodies. >> Well, all

due rights of the church, of course. >> Oh, I'm surprised there isn't a law against it. There's one against everything else. >> Just permission from a surviving relative to move anyone buried within the last 50 years, >> which won't apply to us, I'm sure. >> I've never seen such a moldy damn place. with only the bombs of saints and martyrs in the >> except old Oliver Bright. >> Oh yes, him. >> And whose exumation may, if you forgive such a macabra pun, open another kind of worms altogether. And now I go down for mass. >>

Isn't she coming to see you this evening? Elizabeth Bright. >> Indeed. You know, they were together the first time I met them. Her and old Oliver, grandfather and granddaughter, standing together, holding hands in the aisle, looking at Easter flowers, hair like the daffodils. I always feel daffodil of the Easter flower. >> Hey, father, is it true what they say That something was buried with him inside the coffin? >> Only my predecessor, Father Kenny, could answer that, Margaret. >> So now only God knows. >> Hopefully. >> This is real. Please, it was merc of you to

make the effort so early. >> Taxi driving like everything else is adjusting to market forces. Besides, I didn't finish my essay till 3 this Morning. This top one. >> Yeah. >> What's in here? How many jewels? Was old enough. >> So, I thought sit up, do a bit of reading. Got no lectures today. >> What's going well? >> Worried about me finals. Still, if you're a mature student, you've got to whack the P. I'll uh put it on the back seat. >> No. Seems a shame having to sell a Beautiful house like this. >> Georgian

facads are difficult to justify against cardboard boxes. This part of my life is over. >> I uh saw an account of the sale. You know, your father's stamps and that. Well, someone in the pool was talking the other night to your your family, your your grandfather. How many ships was it he owned? Hey, if you could hold the door while I waggle it in. When I was a girl, I knew all the names, Everyone. I'd sit and recite them, and he'd give me a shilling. But the ships went, the stamps are gone, and the last

of the smallware goes to auction this afternoon. George, 7 this evening. Take Mrs. Marks. I have to see Father Kennedy. >> Sure. [clears throat] Hope everything goes well in the sale. Look after yourself. >> £600. One pair of Chinese vases sold to number 451. A few moments, ladies and gentlemen, while I hand over to my colleague for the latter half of the sale and lot 503 is withdrawn if you wish to mark your cataloges. Thank you. >> H Miller Godfrey current, you here too? Mity, only you, Mity, could find a dress to wear at a

smallware sale in downtown Liverpool and then have the courage to Put it on. >> Terren >> Bob Mity, remember >> Godfrieded Mueller? I thought buying Chinese. No way for a fatalist to behave. And £600. You realize the marks aren't period. Oh, of course you do. >> So, what have you seen, Godfrieded? that the rest of us have missed. >> Here in the boxes, stuffing, newspaper, And yes, later than the date marks, but under an envelope, a stamp >> American, not truly rare. Ves, in time, the money will come back for them. And your trend bright

ships a memorabilia event a long time ago or is there one tied up at a Liverpool peer head that one of us has missed? >> The passing of one of the great shipping families. Who knows what may have Surfaced? Let me buy you both dinner tonight. Where are you? >> The criterion. Mity has to go out of town to um to death to view a small collections. >> Oh, thank you. But perhaps some other time. Mity, Mandy, I'm uh I'm tired and the hotel I think I'll just arrange for the vasees to be brought round

but um next time Terrant dinner and uh and odd me >> so protective. We could try again. Last time I wasn't myself that big deal. >> Here's my number. An anonymous motel as usual. I'm afraid >> you are a horrible man. Terren, horrible. You hear me? The things you said, what you talked about doing to people. >> Put it in your pocket, Mitsy. >> Now, that stamp, what's he playing at? What's it really worth? >> He told you rare, but not unique. >> Then why? What date is it? What year? >> Oh, 1912, if it

is what it appears. >> What is it that struck you, Terren? >> Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon. [clears throat] Lot number 432 a stature group >> £70 65 come hall start me at 60 >> lobby at that time of evening inspector crisp horatio at the bridge head >> cross sir inspector cross yeah um the old German gentleman came in told me someone would be coming around with a pair of vasees that I was to send up to his room I noticed his uh niece this lady here wasn't with him. Well, the vasees came and I

went off to the kitchens. The second chef of Paul's real little Medici. Then Vera, Valium Vera, heard screams of agony from his room. I decided to investigate. Pardon me taking the bread from your mouth and found That at which point Miss >> Mueller Müller walked in. >> And you've touched nothing. >> Neither a drop nor a door handle. Then I'll speak to you later. I >> I do hope I've done the right thing, Inspector. >> All the way down the line. >> Then uh can we keep this out of the papers later, Mr. Rissy? >>

I think yes. >> Um smashed the room. The manager all got freed. >> Rey says, "Mr. hair. Müller was your uncle >> after the war and before the economic miracle began. Godfrieded came around the orphanage looking for a companion. So perhaps he was more of a Dutch uncle. Is it? >> And how old were you then when you became his uh companion? >> Oh, two, three, four. There were no Records left. Godfried came from a school of thought which believed the earlier you started the training the better it was. >> Walked in and picked you

just like that. E no questions asked. >> Have you any idea what it was like over there after the war? How many children? There were no questions asked because there were no answers anyone wanted to hear. >> What did Hair Müller do in the war? Collected stamps so that after the war he could carry a fortune round with him without anyone being the visor. >> Have you any idea what all this was about? >> Not what it was about but who it is about is Bob Tarant >> who fits in exactly where >> we came

for the stamps. Godfred bought and they are now moved from the country but they stayed for the lesser sale. Terren appeared. tyrant who must have What others had not. The rarest >> unique >> but in shipping he must have heard or felt been sensitive to something. Some dealers are like this. They know the others do not even suspect. >> Some policemen too. They let 999 cars go by and then there's one they'll stop. You know this bob chant. >> We deal as well. We see each other at all the sails in and out of each

other's Pockets. Yes, >> in more ways than one. >> So Terrant became friends with Godfrey to help him find stamps, track dancings. But really it was to get me. >> Ah, >> why not? I wish to enjoy it while there's a chance. But Terren, you know the film Dr. Jack and Mr. Hyde their parent is the film Mr. Hyde and Mr. Hyde >> okay so what was the motive why all this >> there look >> that envelope don't touch it miss Mr. Oliver Bright Bright Line Liverpool >> system American about 1912 nothing special it was

a year which seemed to excite Terren >> he wanted what was inside the envelope >> and what was that >> I need to use a phone but first as you if he hasn't got the letter that was in The envelope and this carnage makes me think that's the case then you're his next link you'd better be moved Quiet hotel somewhere. Maybe Chester, North Wales. We know a few. I'll drive you. >> But the letter the terraaster. >> Müller hid it and then stoke out. Our people are on route. They'll find it if it's still here.

>> Inspector, I wonder I wonder could I have a few final Moments with uh got freed. >> Oh, yeah. I I suppose so. Oh yes, fair enough. Uh, what's this tyrant like physically? >> Tall. Very tall. Almost 2 m, blonde, 40 years old, slim, thin, but through exercise, strong. He cannot control his anger. He is like, Oh, frightening. Always wears. How uh policks? He's very vain. >> They usually are the ones that can't control their anger. >> Good. I'll circulate that. And now those calls. >> Another pint. Minty, or are you sitting this one house?

>> I'm worried. Eene. Mr. Cross said he'd be at the starting gate at half five. It's 10 to 6 now. Case must have broken. Either that or a brainstorm. All that stood in. What is it now? >> Antrop something. You know, people different kinds. How do you get on that sort of thing? >> Should have been a bar mate. >> If only you'd get a real job. Simple things. They're the real answer. Gyro check, carry out of a Friday, bit of credit at the bookies. You You couldn't put one on the slate Till he turns

up, could you, love? Spirit [music] [singing] light in us [music and singing] [singing] [music] [music] like the edge of the world. >> Deserted. You know Hina the North Sea Williams >> called the coast road runs right along The edge of the river just a track nearly too narrow to park discreetly so we can keep an eye on moving vehicles like this one behind us keeps talking back then catching up one headlight's brighter than the other >> Terren >> who knows >> the phone calls >> the two things first the brights just one left Elizabeth, old

Oliver's granddaughter. I'll check her out as Soon as it's not you. Talent will be after her, too. >> And to sequencing, >> night of the 14th, 15th, April, 1912. >> What happened then? >> The Titanic >> parent and the Titanic. >> Yeah, I see what you mean. Here's what I think. Someone got off the Titanic with something and then wanted to flock it. and wrote to Old Bright about it. But who and with what? >> Where are we going? >> The place ahead. We'll turn in and have a look at the dudlike job as they

pass. >> What is it? >> This place. >> Sand works. They mine sand here for building. >> Those machines. >> Oh, heavy stuff. Sand. Have to have something special to shift it. Still, they do look a bit Frankenstein, especially with the sodium lights. All Very fritz lang. >> Amen. >> You lost something. >> Police mate. Di crust. Here my card. >> Just waiting for the car to pass. Okay. >> Got to be, I suppose. >> Yeah, that's it. Shouldn't be too long. much call for all this sort of stuff these days. >> Yeah. Well, I'll

uh I'll just stroll to the gate. See where he is. You wait in the car, Mr. >> What's he up to? >> He thinks I'm in danger from a car that he's following. >> You in Tall, are you >> backseat passenger? Is it? >> I know the feeling. Well, he's coming back in a hurry. Must have heard from the station is over. Turn going. >> How's it? He's fooled us. What's your name, pal? Hey, come on. >> Rosson. Jim. Rosson. >> Okay, Jim. This is Mity. I'm leaving her to you. >> How's it going, love?

Chop chop. There's a bloke. I thought he was calling me, and he was, but only to make sure I was out of the way. >> But where is he? >> Calling on Elizabeth Bright. I need a hotel when you're ready, mate. They're expecting her just off the coast road near Martlin. Okay. >> You uh like me to show you the works. >> Bob Tarant. I wonder if I might come in. >> What is it, Mr. Tarant? >> I was one of the people at the stamp sale. I was a great admirer of your father's collection

and naturally wanted to pay my respects to his daughter. You were in the phone book. So, >> Mr. Tarant, I saw the list of those who bought stamps at the sale. Also, my father used to discuss the other major collectors with me. >> No, you're right. More your grandfather than your father. Part of his collection. You know what I'm talking about. You know, I think you do. >> Why not take this chain off? >> When you hear what I have to say, we can discuss things. I'm pretty persistent. >> Perhaps you could ring me tomorrow.

I already have an appointment this evening. >> No, tonight. WHAT'S GOING ON? OKAY, THEN you all right, son? Shut up. How are you feeling? Taxi driver's admin. Famous policeman. Got a [ __ ] >> [music] >> mad, bad, and dangerous to know. >> Remember it? Give you any idea what he was after? >> I rather hoped you'd tell me that. >> Mr. Bright, do you ever recall a pair of Chinese vases you had here? Another Collector, Müller, bought a pair of Chinese vasees. They used to be in my grandfather's study. >> In the bottom of

one, under some crushed newspapers, there was an envelope containing a letter. Talent has killed Müller for that letter. A letter which he never found, but dead again. Nor have we. The letter was sent from America about the time the Titanic sank. Any ideas? >> My grandfather and I were very close, but he didn't tell me everything. I was raised in what some novelists refer to as a singular manner. Educated at home by an old nun from one of the teaching orders. School room fitted out at the top of the house. Victorian bench, school bell, everything

except the company of other children. Money, no object. Shall we walk up and see it? >> And still, isn't they money? [clears throat] Oh, just trying to build up an old >> my grandfather's ships. You could have walked across their decks from one bank of the Mury to the other. My father swapped them for stamps. Nifty move. Imagine trying to run a fleet these days. I'm giving the house to St. Marks. >> Strong family toys, eh? That sort of thing. >> My grandfather was the last person buried in the crypt. >> Here it is. Seat

of my early learning. No childish laughter buried in these walls. My bench was over there. >> It's a shame to see these big houses going one by one. Lost positions in the class war, as the sociologists might say. >> Lost positions in the inheritance tax war, as the owners might say. >> The fact is, there will be no one else after me. And to continue to live here as spinster of this parish would mean that gradually, like a Mayan city, I'd Become covered with foliage and passed from recorded history. They're getting everything. Everything except those

two packing cases in the hall. One one case with with two groups on top. >> Of course, George took the other earlier. >> Yeah. Here, take my arm a moment. It's bad enough having to deal with the likes of talent when you're used to it. Come on, let's stroll down now. The bright Line. My granddad sailed with you lot. >> My granddad probably employed him. sit on your case for a moment and then I'll get you and it round to the church here. Your books. Ah, holy Bible and Titanic and other ships by Commander Lighter.

Interesting pair. >> My grandfather said that if I ever needed an income, they would provide it. >> First editions are they? Bible certainly isn't. Oh, your grandfather's name on The fly leaf with a textual reference. L267 Leviticus St. Look, light tell his reminiscence is scarce, I suppose. But well, hardly a first folio. Do you mind if I borrow them for the time? >> Of course. >> And now you think you can make it to my car? >> I'm a bit better now. Father Kennedy has offered me a spare room for a couple of Days until

I go, shall we? >> Starting a new life. >> Why not? Come, my friends. It is not too late to seek a new world. Jisen. Yeah, I did a course it once him and Browning. >> How much he knew Browning. >> How well he hid it. >> Attending their interminable dinners and dances. >> Whiskers drooping in his soup with the best of them. >> Absolutely. But what was going on in That head? >> Exactly what I'm asking myself, Miss Bright. >> How is she? All well boxed off in her hotel room with that blood roson,

manager of a sad factory, Toughnut. He took her down to show her the works. So she's returning the favor. >> Thought he found nothing in the jerry's room. >> Only the manager with his ear to the keyhole. >> Well, if Tarant hasn't got the letter, >> and I don't think he has. >> That it's got to be in there. Unless she took it, Mity thirsty. This thing come for a living. >> Not so much thirsty as expensive. I need love. Two pipes. Eh, >> right. Love. >> Yeah. If anyone knew where Müller would choose to

hide something, it would be her. And I left her alone with him for 5 minutes. Fool. I am. But she couldn't Have proved it, could she? Because then we know that when she didn't find it, which you haven't, that only she could have taken it. So, so it's in me, is this, Mr. Crust? So, what she's done is realized where he's hidden it, stole 5 minutes off me, had a quick butchers at it, then put it back. >> Two pine. >> Oh, thanks, love. Uh, here a tenner. >> Oh, hang on. I'll need change. Oh,

I can never get these plastic bank bags open without >> BANK BAGS. WHAT? >> STAMPS. All that paraphernalia they have. I mean, how would the druggie hide his heroin? Well, go on >> over here. Slightly chilled. >> Well, you reckon there was a note? My snout. Minty came up with something. This bloke had all sorts of felatic stuff in his pockets, including some of those transparent packets they carry stamps in. And what with the drunk crew? So, although my oath objures me not to cut for the stone, you want me to cut for the packet?

>> Uh, if you would. >> Okay, here it goes. That and more fat. He lived well, Mr. Miller. >> Anything? >> Abandoned hope. For ye who enter here, nothing for either of you. >> Minty also pointed out that he spoke with a German accent while a killer was banging on his door and he needed to hide something very quickly. Embarrass me. Want to tie a finger in his cheek. See if it's a chipmunk job. Give Minty full marks. Shall I read it? fired away. >> Mr. Bright, I am writing after she went Down. I took

the youngster from the bridge. I had a terrible job with his tongue, but got him ashore. I will write again at the peer head. It's not signed. He's been cut very neatly, but this is an old note. And that's a fresh edge. I'm a doctor, so you can believe me. >> You hear a story about the French king who said to his position, "You treat me Like any one of your patients." To which the reply was, "That's because I treat all my patients like kings." >> You hear a story about Voltater, who said, "If we

knew the private lives of our doctors, we'd stone them in the streets." >> Chip off was a doctor. >> Soul was crippin. >> If there's one thing we don't need as a postmortem, it's a smartass. Here's your note. You're racing squire. >> Not not too much training strict. >> But why? Why do you need it? >> Oh, I always wanted to be able to bully planks. So, got into boxing. I gravitated towards karate and stuff. It's the exercises now as much as anything. The discipline, making your mind and body into a complete unit. What happens

when you get old? >> I suppose your joints go if you haven't found anything else. >> What else is there? >> Bodyguard or something like that. Companion chauffeur total package. I know anybody who might be uh interested. >> Vital sleeper. >> Yes. >> Morning. Crust. Inspector crust. >> Oh, for Elizabeth. that she said you'd be calling. I thought at first you were the other one. Oh, we're in the adult confirmation classes. This way. >> Oh, uh, Mr. Green Dot. >> Inspector Crust for Elizabeth. Well, I thought the same myself, but it was a body snatcher.

>> Yes. Yes. Inspector, the central heating has switched itself off again. I need to Can we Can we talk later? Money. That's what we need. Bingo's bringing bodies cheater >> bodies statue >> up here we're emptying the crypt needs to be turned into a church club Mr. Gringod is the man coming to supervisor removals. >> I hope he's got a strong sto. >> Oh, to be certain he's got a strong bank account. >> That wooden statue of the house there. >> German. >> Oh, I'm only familiar with the Irish center. Here we are. Elizabeth, the

police. Hello. Come in. Thank you, Mrs. Morren. >> Don't worry, dear. I'll be within Hearing. >> Someone like Mrs. more and you don't need me. >> Coffee. >> Oh, very welcome. Not my favorite season. >> All that [clears throat] busy, burgeoning life, worry. Difficult to keep under surveillance. >> Never thought of it like that. >> How's George? >> Oh, call to see him this morning. Well, Braggy's dates. He's okay. Struggling with K. How about you? >> Oh, still a bit shaky. But I see now why so many sought sanctuary in the churches. There's a feeling

of safety here. No guns or guards, but you feel that no one's going to be able to get at you. >> Yeah, jails like that. >> I feel you've got the books. The references give you anything? >> Oh, we found the letter or or part of it? >> Oh, yes. >> Yeah. Something was brought off the Titanic, brought back, and possibly sold to your grandfather. I think he wanted you to have it. At least know about it. So he left you a clue in these. I began by checking out the Bible L267. Three possibilities. Luke,

Leviticus, Lamentations. So chapter 2 verse 67. None of the chapter 2 had 67 verses. Only one had a chapter 26 verse 7. Leviticus, >> which was >> you shall pursue your enemies and they shall fall before you. Not much of an income for life in that unless it's an exaltation to armed robbery. So then I thought, what if the reference, although it was in the Bible, was to the other book, L for Lighter's Reminiscences. I opened it up on page 267. >> And >> Lighter never sailed as a skipper. No one who survived the Titanic

ever held commanded White Star. >> All should have gone with the ship. >> Exactly. Light Toller stayed on board till he saw the last light boot off. Then he took a header into the ocean. All of us got sucked down, it seems. Oh, his behavior was exemplary, but fell below expectations. A ship like that goes down and you're a senior officer. You go down With it, whether you like it or not. There are certain things you don't come back from alive. Not if you expected a pension. Curiously enough, Light Teller actually jumped back on board

from a lifeboat on an impulse, apparently for the final look around. Yes, his life seems to have been spent making decisions on the spur of the moment that everyone disliked forever after. >> Could this be a better reason he never held command? >> In the chat room, he took a chronometer off the wall as a keepsake and brought it off with him. I think your grandfather's references to a clock off the Titanic with the ship's name on it. What we are searching for is a murderer and one of the Titanic's kilometers. >> Well, we're sure

about the murderer >> here. The note. The tongue. That would be the ticking. >> It's a theory. If you wait in here, will I get Father Kennedy? You don't mind, do you, Elizabeth? Except Father's Julian to the boiler in the cellar. There's not a board and sweep radiator that doesn't leak. >> Lovely lady. Morning all. Alf grin god charal enterprises. Bit nippy wearing April showers that come your way. Except it's March. I often dream of retiring to somewhere With a constant temperature about 75 all year round. California. I hear good reports from California. Alter boy,

are you sir? >> Detective Inspector John Crust. Oops. Careful. >> Miss Elizabeth Bright. >> Ah, the signature we are together. Oh, not to worry madam. Decorum is our watch word. Proprietes all. We're a very young business, but a caring one. Of course, When we began mistakes, we've made a few. My predecessor now gone to the world of the baiff. Thanks to the openings provided by Madame Thatcher and her self-sharpening guillotine once went to the wrong church and began work. That sort of thing. But since we've gone on computer online, as they say, that's all now

in the past. I sometimes feel we're the last colossers. Um perhaps in view of the next step, the lady had better remain here. Rumor has it that there are Some very reassur 18th century lowerings in this one. Rumor has it the VAT man calls on people who don't know when to shut up. >> Father Kennedy says, "Would you all like to go to the crypt?" You too, Elizabeth, if you wish. >> Miss Bright will be staying here with a strong cup of tea. >> Yes, sir. Right away. [music] >> [music] >> Mo >> parent >>

Mity at last. >> You wish to buy? >> Look about Godfred. >> No need to explain. I'm glad. Heat at the moment. I was worried that you might be turned off. But of course, everyone, even dealers have a price. Where was it, my dear? The letter. >> Trade secret. You're right, Terren. Everything is for sale. Has to be. Oh, >> of course it is. Now, what does it tell us? this note >> what it is and where to find it. $1 million. >> We are talking about an artifact from it >> complete with ship's name.

>> I'll need time to gather the money. >> I will ring back tomorrow. Hello. >> Hello, Sands. Jim Rosson, please. >> Difficult here. They come up like the armed men springing from the ground where the dragon's teeth were sewn. Ah, the classics, gentlemen. My one consolation. I shall do the GCE before I'm finished. Burial customs, too. Oh, very interesting. Those in the frozen north would often bury their dead with their heads turned towards the warm south. >> Stay out. >> Take the afternoon from work. Tell them you're ill. >> Why? >> Because I want you

to and want you to. >> Well, it's a nice day for him. >> Is it 1:00 at the gate? God's air and sunshine again. Yeah. In a way, I'll not be unhappy to see that place put to some good use. Poor Mrs. Moore in this frightened out Of her wits by the whole business. Huh. There's our Robin. >> It's not the dead you have to be frightened of in this life. Man with the way with words. Silly Irish bloody use somehow. >> Tell me, how bad is all this? >> Well, it's desperate, but it's not

that serious. Oh, we'll get him cuz he's not going anywhere else because he what he wants is here. >> And what's that then? >> Something came off the Titanic and back to Liverpool ending up in the possession of Oliver Bright. I think it's a chronometer, a ship's clock. >> Valuable, please. >> Well, anything to do with that particular ship carries two flavors. Something not quite wholesome and a great deal of money. Both, as always, inexplicably linked. should never have been taken in the first place. Let the dead bury their dead. And all those people, 1,513

sold. >> That's a very accurate figure. >> Yes, something of a hobby of mine. I suppose it's through knowing the brights and their history. >> You've been here this parish a long time. >> Couple of years in town in St. Mary's when he first came over with the present bishop, believe it or not. >> You'd have known her since she was a Girl then. She's well a very uh very striking. >> She was brought up for a world that has already ceased to exist. Certainly not this one. The mother died when she was a mere

slip and well the father burned stamps for wines. Though that may be a bit unfair. The daughter just couldn't take the place of the wife. Maybe his son I don't know. I tell you this as someone with an interested Heart. I hope >> I surprised she'd ever marry. Good background, rich. >> Used to see the odd one passing through all either too old or too young if you take my meaning. Unless for the money, she will she often quotes from that American fellow is it Henry James? What he refers to apparently is the black and

merciless things behind great possessions. >> Oh yeah, as the jury said, Anyone tells you he's a millionaire, tell him he robbed some poor booger. Inspector, I feel I should tell you that part of the reason Elizabeth is staying here with me is to discuss her dowy. [music] [music] [music] >> They're going to suck me. >> Good. I'll suffice you will do nothing with your life. >> Look, I told you my qualifications is my Strength and unlike brains that doesn't improve as you get older. >> Ah, >> you've got plenty of brain, Jim. Not for what

goes on in books, maybe. But books don't bring Zimmani in. >> You got a big thing about money, haven't you? >> A woman can never be too rich, Jim. Money is our only real security. >> Well, uh, what about a good man? Even the best are not guilted. And they Fluctuate with the market. Ah, >> here we are. >> When you said we were going somewhere special for the day, I never thought you meant a fun fair. >> All I wanted as a child and the one thing Godfrey' never give me. >> He thought he

would have looked a fish out of water. But no one would have noticed. Ah, there's a space, >> right? >> And I treat you to a meal tonight. slept up. >> Wonder what sort of blog was he this got freed. >> Mia owns the ghost train. I will tell you, but you will put your arms around me. Yeah. >> Morty. Uh, >> no thanks. He's not happy. Inspector Christ. >> He knows something isn't quite right and is angry because he can't see what. >> He may eventually. By that time, it'll be too late. It's too

late now, in fact. Isn't it? >> Unless you change your mind. >> Not now. >> Oh, Easter shouldn't be cold like this. It detracts from its message somehow. He likes you a lot. The inspector doesn't know what to do about it because, well, it may not have happened with him just this way before. >> That's very flattering, especially at my Age, but out of the question completely. For me, Easter, like the media, is the message. [music] >> I I said I wouldn't mind putting this on a more permanent basis. I mean, if there was any

way of paying my end, >> we will talk about that over dinner. And Müller Godfrieded going to tell me that you know what sort of bloke you was if I uh if I put my arm around you. >> Well, come on. What sort of blog was he? >> Uh the thought who could do what was necessary. [music] >> Not the part of Liverpool I know. Mr. Cross, what's it called again? This gap. The home of Boras, Zephus, Notus, and Uros. To you, the Four Winds Club. I need to see your mom about a ship. Bloke

I grew up with well more an encyclopedia ship panicker than a bloke. Colder than a rent man's breath. What? Why do you keep stopping? Eh, >> because I keep getting followed. At least I think I do. Being paranoid, Minty doesn't mean to say they aren't out to get you. See Everton lost again. E. >> Come on. Down here. >> I don't know if I'm dressed properly. >> You've got your trousers on, haven't you? >> EXCUSE ME. EXCUSE THAT, PAL. WATCH YOUR BACK, MATE. NOW, let's see. Oh, there he is. COME ON, MINTY. I'LL INTRODUCE YOU.

HEY. YO, DICKY. BIRD. >> DICKY. >> JOHN, pull up a chair. Get one for you, mate. Hey, couple of that table over there. Not be. >> Oh, yeah. What can I get you? >> This is Minty. >> All right, mates. >> All right. Yeah. Fancy a pine. >> My shout here. Here, Minty. Get a couple of pints and uh count the change >> and look at it. >> Oh, still past the peso down here, is it? >> Where else can you get the songs then? >> Ah, yeah, I suppose so. Though I've never seen it

so crowded as this before. >> Oh, the recession. Everyone's depressed. >> Think Eskim O'Neell herself was built to appear. >> Listen, Dick, I've got a problem. >> Right. When you're going to find the time to come to the old baggage rooms With me. They'll be gone shortly. >> Yeah, I know. I'm I'm waiting for people to stop committing crimes. >> Ah, putting together courses to attract lonely policemen. Come on. >> There you go, Lanc. Three points. >> More thunders. >> The bright sticky. The bright line. >> Old Oliver Bright. >> Elizabeth Bright. He was >>

What have you got? >> Part of a note writing a bit rough sent From New York 1912. Newby >> shortly after the survivors were mathemat. >> The writer claims to have got something off the Titanic when it went down. He was then bringing it back to Liverpool to sell to Oliver Bright. But what I've got so far, it was a ship's clock with the name all that you know. What I don't know is where it is or even where it could be. It seems to have vanished into thin air. I recall Old Oliver Bryant coming

to a ship of mine. Might have been my first one. He couldn't keep away from them anyway. He had her with him. girl Elizabeth like a little shadow serious real old lady shook all our hands one of the lads gave her a top and whipped just a watch below job colored red and blue I remember her standing there holding them mustard coke and berry John >> oh yeah she in this is she not in trouble though >> no nothing like that's coming from an antiqu guy. He's after this clock. He's trouble. Big trouble. We've got

to get to it first. See, he gets it. He'll have it out of the country like that. >> Mr. Cross, >> not now, Minty. What? Ticky, >> you got the note here. >> Good one. Be something to look back on me all day. >> Oh, here. So, I shouldn't even be wandering around with it. You see, whatever it was was pretty small with a tongue that the writer had trouble in keeping quiet. That'll have been the ticking till it ran down, I suppose. >> Um, hey, Minty. >> Yeah. >> Listen, mate. Get another round in.

>> No, no, no. Here, have this. Let's see. Tonight. Right. Now, now, Minty, of course. Later, Minty. Later. Go on. >> Did you say so? >> More trouble than a lamp trimmer's pet. Am I right? >> No, you're on the wrong track, John. >> I don't think so, Dick. >> All the usual stuff, but there's another one not much heard of because it's well, It's a bit Oliver Bri. Sea was in him through and through. He could never get enough of it. Lost his wife off the canaries one trip. It didn't matter. It kept steaming.

Then the granddaughter came along. They say he worked the father out of her affections, turned it against her own dad. All confused, but smoke without fire, eh? He had some wonderful stuff, they say. When he died, old Bright, all the great collectors from the continent, Germans and Dutch, the the best of what was there went to them. Yep. The best went abroad, right? But even so, there was a bit of a disappointment because there was something hinted at that never appeared. What a mate of mine referred to as the holy grail of shipping memorabilia. Something

from the Titanic. All right. But it wasn't the ship's clock. So, what was it? The bell, John. Was the bell? >> The bell from the Titanic? You're crazy. Nothing at all. >> Not the main bell. That would take two men and a boy just to move to Polish. No, one of the small bridge bells used to call the messengers. That's what under the tongue that had to be kept quiet. But look, the bell bells of the soul of a ship and the bell from the Titanic. Just think of it. But why hide it? Go back.

Imagine what it must have been like immediately after the sinking, the anger, the accusations about the lack of lifeboat space, the children lost from third class, the big names who escaped, the accusations of bribery, the inquiries that were careful to do anything but inquire. Well, to produce the bell with all that going on. He could have been lynched. So, he hid it. Your order, gent. Reckon it got to him how awful the whole thing had been. He'd been away himself. He'd have known how the families of the dead would have felt. They say when he

sorted himself out, he but he couldn't destroy it. Was too well. It couldn't be destroyed because of what it was, what it represented. But they say also that he took steps to make sure it would never appear again. Never will. Watch steps. >> He's supposed to have taken it with him into the grave. They say he left instructions in his will to have it buried with him. >> Well, that's that and them. Not really. We're taking him up tomorrow. >> Come on, Minty. We have things to do. >> What? But Mr. Cross, what what about

the ale? >> Come on. What about What about our trip? EH, THE KUNARD BAGGAGE ROOMS. I gave you the ch. What about me? Oh, well, must be piney something, I suppose. >> Uh, excuse me. >> Oh, yes. >> Uh, I'm a visitor here to Liverpool. I came, um, well, because I'm fascinated. It's history, ships and shipping, White Star Cunard. And I couldn't help overhearing your parting comments. And, well, it goes without saying the Cunard baggage rooms. Uh, bitter, is it? >> Perhaps a scotch. Oh, I then >> and then any chance of seeing them? What

a sight they must have presented in the 20s and 30s. The great and the rich, special trains, the jewels, servants. I have a car, of course. Oh, where double is it? [music] >> I'll drop you at your Mars, Minty. You'll be tired after all that exercise. >> Thanks. >> A belly him being dug up tomorrow. >> What was it you wanted in the club? >> Oh, it's just that there was this fella behind you seemed to be trying to listen in like though I think he was talking too low. >> A place like that is

always full of nosy parkers. >> Well, what was he like? fell sitting down. He he'd be tall wearing one of those white polar necks. Well, you know that type large gin and tonic and no behind in his trousers Said something. Have I Mr. Cross? Mr. Cross >> you wouldn't think there was a hotel like this within a 100 miles of that fair. >> Why not? Other than the people, this money is in a 100 miles. Is that fair? >> I'm a child in all this. Really? >> The same tree can make both cradle and coffin.

More champagne. >> Cheers. I wonder what the poor are doing this year. He was found by the pier head, a ruined sort of building up behind the floating roadway. >> The old canard baggage route. >> Yes. Well, he's quite ill. Systematically beaten. >> As if for information. >> If they did, it took them a long time to get it. Needless to say, he was found by a passer by. >> The police all being busy examining tax discs and tires. I'd say I'm a friend of his as well as a policeman. Then why not go home

and have a good night's sleep? Then spend tomorrow finding the bastards who did it. >> There was only one. >> I see. >> Parent. I said I'd ring you about some money. >> No go, love. I don't need your Information. I got it myself. >> How? following Mr. Provincial Plot around. He told a friend of his who I persuaded to tell me. So I know all about your note and the bell and where it is. >> Are you sure about that, Terren? That you know where it is? >> He told me the truth. I guarantee

it. >> Ah, but not all of it. Because he didn't know all of it. For instance, he didn't know who signed the note, did he? Although I'm sure you asked. He didn't know because I found the note first and cut the signature off and not because I collect autographs. The old bride had written something alongside the signature. He had written how much he paid for the bell and what he then intended to do with it. >> Whatever he intended to do with it, he didn't or he did. It doesn't really matter. All that matters is

where it is now. And I possess that knowledge. But that doesn't mean to say we shouldn't get together. Godfrieded's gone. Mity, we have another viceroy now. >> Jim would say something, I think, about that. >> Jim, >> I am thinking of settling down, Tyrant. Concentrating on producing young masters instead of old. >> Who is he? How much does he know? >> Everything about everything. >> Mity, >> you should meet him. He's young and handsome, very powerful. him leave me. >> Very, very playful. >> Perhaps I shouldn't leave him. >> Well, I'll ring again. If I

get no answer, I will know you have it. But Terren, I think you are in for a surprise. >> Well, what do you think? >> It depends on whether what he knows or what I guess is correct. All on the cusp, is it? He bought me a few scotches and I took him down there to the baggage rooms. Empty as a school playground. He started laying into me. Oh, I had too much. Wouldn't have mattered if I'd been sober. He's he's one of them, you know, psychos, whatever the bleeding hell they Are. John, why didn't

you tell me? >> Back the machine. >> All right, Bill is a man of few words. Most of them unre repeatable. All of them totally forgettable. But he can spring the merchandise like loose teeth. What did I tell you now? Father, is the lady joining us? Yes, >> she's decided to arrange some flowers in the church for Sunday. >> Ah, the weaker sex, kittens, kitchens, and fish tights. God bless him. So, >> I think Inspector Crust here has something he wishes to say. >> Yes. Where we start, Mr. Greg, is with that one there, Mr.

Oliver Bright. Well, do it carefully because I want that coffin out intact. I want it out intact because there may be something in there. >> One hopes so, bring up the g >> beside the body. But whatever is in there, its existence goes no further than this room. Okay. Okay, Bill. And [clears throat] now modestly vandi modus operandi as the Greeks say. These gentlemen are disposable suits. Face masks in the pocket to guard against pestilence and plague. Once we have them on, Bill will go outside to connect up The compressor. Um there is a powerpoint

handy outside. Is there Vicar? >> Father. >> Oh, [clears throat] for some reason I was thinking of Lord Kitchener. But then when we are ready to begin, Bill will turn on the compressor and then come in and disinter a lovely word, disinter the late remains. What he's reminded >> indeed. Uh, Bill. >> So M, gentlemen, ah, the confessor. Ah, if Dickens initable, Mr. bold with his velvet, his black ostrich feathers, his walking attendance, his batons tick with brass, his cakes and wine and his four longtail branches never harnessed for under4 10 could see the strides

that have been taken. Yeah, Bill, you're ready to go. >> What was that? >> Remarkably like tickity boom to me, Mr. Windut. [laughter] Well, masks on, gentlemen. Now, steady as she goes, Bill. >> Bloody hell. WILL, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE. The gent's exposed. Go and put that machine off. You hear me? Stop poking HIM OUT THERE. WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU, MAN? Go and put it off. and and then come back here. Bronto, you bloody Oh, >> gentlemen, what can I say? The funeral Of his majesty King George II with the Duke of Newcastle standing on

the train of the Duke of Cumberland in an effort to keep his feet warm could hardly have afforded no stranger sight. Oh me, that bloody compressor. What's he doing out there? It's always the same. Got to do it yourself. I think we might as well take off these mask things. I'm not sure if they're not one of Mr. Gringod's inventions. Anyway, >> you could be right, Father. Still no escape from Compressor. >> Hello. >> Bill, he's been hit on the head unconscious. It wasn't him in the suit at all. But who? tarant build outside his

overall unasked. Well, thank God the coven was empty. Oh, holy mother of God, Elizabeth's in the church arranged in flowers. [music] [music] >> [music] >> Miss Bright, there's a bag. There's a bag on the altar. >> He's got her. He's lifted her. I want this car. Inspector, it's George. Look. Look. She's with him. Oh my. >> What's wrong? Why are you staring like that? >> We We wondered where you'd gone. >> I didn't really want to be here when Mr. Gringod did what he had to do. So, I Thought I'd walk to the shop and

get some more flowers. George spotted me and offered me a lift back. What happened in the crypt? Why are you all still looking at me like that? What did you find there? >> Got another call. See you folks. >> Tomorrow morning, never. >> Bye-bye, Ever. Right. Uh, father, inspector, >> there was nothing there. The bell wasn't with him. It was a false Trail. >> Where do you go now? >> Müller's companion, Mity. I need to know what was at the end of that note, and she's going to tell me. Going away tomorrow. >> Why is

it the only reason why I have to stay? >> Oh, not especially. Not till we grab him anyway. You may be needed as a witness. Well, >> surely there's enough already of those, Inspector. The town is full of people he's attempting to murder. >> The bell. >> I'd like to speak to Elizabeth alone, father. >> Surely. Yes. Yeah. I'll be in the prestory if I'm needed. Uh, but what about her safety? >> I'll walk her back over to the house and see someone's posted here tonight. She'll be safe until tomorrow. >> Lunch in half an

hour. Elizabeth, don't Make my life even more difficult with Mrs. Mo. >> Shall we go inside, Inspector, while I finish the altar? >> I think I'll start with those. Could you >> here? Must have cost a fortune. >> Everything costs these days. Flowers, water, even religion. Hence the proliferation of coffee bars and church clubs in crypts. How was he? My grandfather. >> Oh, what you see expect? >> I hope he's looking down and laughing. It's the sort of thing that would have amused him. What do you think of these two varieties in one bar? >>

Very close and startling at the same time. >> Make people think, focus their minds. >> Yeah. All this is making me think. Remember you told me as a girl you had your own School room. >> Apparently grandmother had a maid employed just to brush her hair. >> You had a Victorian bench. An old nun. An old bell. What sort of bell was it? >> So long. Wasn't any sort of bell as far as I can remember. It's covered in black paint. Perhaps to reduce its tone in the school room. >> Yeah, perhaps. Seen it lately.

I've never set eyes on It since shortly before my grandfather died. >> And after he died, >> school room was shut up. >> There. What do you think? >> Oh, pretty a picture. Flowers as well. Normally long. >> Father Kennedy mentioned a diary. Sounds bit oldfashioned. >> I hadn't thought of it like that. >> Is he an English lad? I mean dy sort of come >> perhaps man of the world might be a good description. >> Ah be born abroad afterwards. >> I have no plans as such. >> Oh well might even chance across each

other then. >> It's not impossible. In fact it would be rather nice once I Settle down. I thought I might kneel here for a few minutes before going back. Oh, yes. Right. I'll I'll I'll wait outside. >> Inspector, >> a kiss for all you've done. Only on the cheek, I'm afraid. But you'll realize as a man of honor that I'm already spoken for. >> Of course. Elizabeth. Oh, >> hello. I didn't see you come in. >> I used the side door. Elizabeth, if he had asked the next logical question about what happened to the contents

of the school room, what would you have done? >> Prayed. [music] and glory. [music] [music] Glory. [music] Glory. [music] Glory. [music] >> [music] [music] >> It was not there. >> No. So obviously you do have something. >> $1 million >> tomorrow. Day after more probably. That's the earliest. >> Karen, I will give you the contact number of one of my foreign accounts. Ring them and shall arrange for the transfer of the money from one of your many accounts. This can be done now. It has to be done now. >> And then >> once the money

has been moved, you get the other half as a note. Then you know what I know where to go next. >> Not a definite location then for the bell. >> Where it ended up? That's all that is on offer. But it is a definite lead. Give me the account number, >> but I'll want to pick up the note personally. So, where are you? >> No, not here. Somewhere more more I know. Desand works. >> Sand works. Who do you think I am? Oh, bloody chest. >> You wanted to meet Jim. Jim works there. >> Found

an intellectual a Mity. >> Don't knock it till you tried it, Terren. And I want Jim with me. I have the note, remember? When all is Said and done. Okay, first that account number, then the address of the egg timer factory. What does he do there? >> He is night foreman. Three people under him on the loading. >> Wilson Keell and Betty. Okay, that account number and the address. >> She there that Mity phone's engaged. Try again in a minute. I've got to see the other bit of that note. Mity, I I think he's in

contact with Tarot. Blimey after him doing her Uncleing. They're wasting politicians. I Are we having another? >> I think I've got to go. >> Where, Mr. Crust? I think >> I don't know what to think. I think of going back to that boat. >> No, not for me, love. >> No. And you have milk farms? Well, I know what he's done and what he'll do to you given a chance. >> And after you say to them at the sand factory, goodbye job. >> Well, they've already said it to me. >> I'm working a week's notice

now. Oh, they rang me about the time I've been having off lately. I gave them my view of this sand industry in general. >> You throw it in their eyes. [laughter] >> Oh, Jim, come on. to freedom, our future lives, >> and Bob Tarant who made it all possible. >> Oh, I I listen I I'm sorry. I didn't I didn't mean that. >> I'm sorry. Got through. The receptionist said they just left. Hold on. Ross sandwiches. Probably hopefully it's an offer talent. Yeah, help me on with this. I mean, she wouldn't sell him the note,

though, would she? It >> depends, isn't it? Something I've never really been sure of myself. >> Oh, what's that, Mr. Crust? How strong Was her attachment to Müller? [music] [music] Strange. So quiet. Just the one lights. The machine silent. Why did you chose them? Your staff >> to go home. >> Did he park under it? Delight. >> Well, he's got nothing to fear. Thinks he's just going to come here and pick up the other piece of the note. Oh, he Thinks other things as well, but that's what he mainly thinks. Here's a car. >> Told

you. Right underneath the light. >> Clear area around him. No cover for anybody like me. Hey, you're nervous. >> Yeah, >> Dad, don't worry. This is the right way. He's going to be led into this. Stand right in the window. >> Yeah. >> Lights off. Engine off. Out. Where's he gone now? Here he comes on the steps up to the office. You wait for it. Missy and Jim. Jim. Jim looking very trim. You're a naughty girl, Mity. Where's the note? >> Here. >> So, what have I paid my million dollars For? An indecipherable signature. And

underneath, paid £50 for a new bell for the school room. Elizabeth Bright, her school room. I presume this isn't good enough, Mitsy. Terren, we had a deal. You wanted to know where the bell ended up. >> There it is. The school room. >> But it's not where the bell is now. The house is empty. I've been in. >> That is for you to discover. >> Which means I've got to get my hands on Elizabeth Bright. >> You're going to have to come with me, Mitsy. >> Hey, that wasn't part of the deal. >> I'll need

you as insurance. Plaude is hanging around racking his tiny brain. I've got to have something for Bart just in case the natives become overexited. She was not part of the deal. >> Neither were you, chum. I don't think you understand about Mity and myself, Our previous life. I assume she hasn't told you. >> She wouldn't be the first that's fallen for a [ __ ] because of its corn. >> What are you, chum? Black belt, sixth dan. You got that sort of look? I'll tell you what I think you are. A third gym. A third

rate third gym. You ever hear the saying, Jim, God made man, but Sam Cult made them equal? Well, that's what I've got here. Okay. What do you say? >> Christ, what's he doing, Mity? >> I thought you knew Terren. All third rate gyms throw themselves out of vindors when threatened. >> It's a well-known English fact. >> Get over here. You hear me? Come here. How >> nine? >> You set this up. >> What's he playing at? Where is he? >> I'm waiting for you. If you come out with me. If you leave now by yourself,

He will let you go. If you try and take me, he will kill you out there in the shadows. >> I've got the gun. >> You had the gun. Then he was here. >> There's more to all this than something else. You've worked this Mity. I want to >> You don't point that good. Mr. Tallet Dicky Bird is going to get better, which means good news for both of us. But shooting a police officer, Kelly's no recovery rate at all. In fact, put it Down. How about shooting a crooked dealer? This one. Fowline Mity. We've

been conned. You know that bright woman has got it. The bell somewhere. Somehow she's waved a wand and got away with it. Oh, killer. Mity, if you try anything right over here. >> No, I get his handcuffs. Where are they? >> HERE YOU ARE. LOOK HERE. THIS TARGET here saying you're getting a hold of something might balance you. Look, here's what you do. >> THERE. [clears throat] YOU BASTARD. YOU BLOODY BASTARD. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? >> This is better than Natelli. Oh, go on, Mr. Cross. What had you done? Handcuffed her to me and threw

the key out the window. No way he could take her then. That when he gave you the black eye, is it? What happened then? >> Well, Char had nothing left, had he? He was stuck. been taken. Mity had a million dollars of him in he doesn't know he wanted to kill it. Of course, I Could see it. But something maybe the thought he could get the money back. He'd never be able to do that over a foreign account without her authority, which meant she'd have to be alive. Maybe he thought he could still get his

hands on the bell. What came to him eventually was he would have to get hold of Elizabeth Bright and get the truth out of her. Anyway, he took off out of the office. Mity dragged me to the window to look. Talent made The car all right, as he was supposed to. But they planned it well. Rosson and Mity. Oh, yes. Where the car was to park, it was on loose sand, and it dug itself in when Tarant tried to move it. He tried and tried. He climbed out, started scrambling away under the back wheels, trying

to pack the sand. I thought at first I was seeing the horizon move. What it was, of course, was one of the giant diggers creeping up Behind Talent. Its grab high in the air. Some sixth sense must have warned Talent. He looked up just as Rosson opened the grab. Wet sand. Tons. Tons and tons and tons. That would have been a mouthful even for him. Ooh, tons of blood to think of it. >> I two wait a bit. >> What happened then? >> Well, I could never have got him out in Time, so I decided

to go into nervous shock. Stood there with me mouth open. Well, what about the the big eye? >> Oh, Mity. While I was in shock, she hit me with the fire extinguisher. When I came to, they'd gone to a better place, I should imagine. Yeah, but but you had her in the cuffs. >> Well, she must have thought I had a spare key. >> Well, I'll come. >> I refuse to answer that question, Minty, On the grounds I might incriminate myself. You're as bad as the rest of us, you are. >> I'm a policeman and

uphold the law. But in very rare cases, I sometimes feel the spirit of it rather than a letter should prevail. Natural justice. >> Oh, don't you get any ideas? >> All very nice, Mr. Cross, but still no bell. >> No. All very nice, but still no bell. The ship went down, the bell was Smuggled off, brought back and sold to Bright. But then the ensuing fury over the loss of the ship and the strong emotions it all gently lean Mr. Trust will pay when he finished philosophizing. Yes, I take your point, Mity. So what did

he do? He he stuck it away in the school room, but he painted it black to hide the name. But then after he died, they would never expect her to go digging in coffins. Not her. He would Have paid someone to breathe for her if he could. The way he felt about her. >> Mr. Cross, do you think she had twigged? Of course she did. With her upbringing, she probably knew more about shipping than King Neptune. She knows where it is. Even if she intends to leave it where it rests. I'd like to know where

that is. But now she's gone. Where? >> I think she's got a bloke. >> Oh, maybe getting married. I don't really know. Ah, what business is it of mine anyway? >> You're out of sorts on this one, aren't you? Hey, hey, up. Hey, up. Just come in. Two current bums. Always collecting for something. Evening, sister. You fancy a glass? >> No, thank you. Mr. Clman's stomach is particularly weak this time of year. We've much to do. It's the children's clinic again, I'm afraid. >> And I've just put me last change over The bar. I have

to leave it to me mate tonight. >> Hey, sister. >> God bless you. And you? Excuse me. Sister K. >> It's a lousy life. I've always thought they're not normal, you know, when brides are Christ and all that. Huh? What's up? Oh, what are you looking at me like that for? Hey, Mr. Crust. What have I said now? I've done it again, haven't I? >> Oh, my uh >> Oh, it's you. Yeah, just a couple of things, George. The case you took to the station for Elizabeth Bright. You taken one before that, hadn't you? She

said there'd been two. Had you taken the first one? A packing case? Yeah. Earlier that morning. Old one. Cobwebby and that heavy. She said it was family stuff. I took it to British Rail Parcels. Off it went. Next one you were there. Hey, you okay? You look pissed off. >> Oh, still breathing. Although it's a bit difficult with all this egg over your face. I'll leave the address where they went the cases. >> Yeah, sure. Know anything about Emmanuel Camp? Only that he gives people headaches and makes them annoyed. Know anything about Elizabeth Bright? to

get light. I've never been this far in the pool before, you know. M never believe it. Unless I bring home a stick of rock or something. Nor rock. I'm going for that sort of thing around here. Do you think how long now? Should be a turning shortly. Ah, >> here it is. Now down here and there looks like one of them country houses. One of those big country houses that was left to a religious order. A lot of it been about lately. >> The lights are on this time of the night at morning. >> They

keep long days and go to bed early. >> Hey, there's a boat just come out. He's a priest. He's looking at us. Recognize the cut of that satan. Right out, Minty. Let's get it over with. >> Making of a fine day, inspector. >> Minty, this is called the countryside. That over there is a field. Go and have a good look around. You may never get The chance again. >> I get the message, Mr. Cross. The over there, are the dear swans or what? Should we take a turn in front of the house? >> It's here

with her, is it? It's supposed to be in the chest, part of her diary. These sort of orders are very strict, though sometimes you're allowed to bring something with you if it's considered to benefit the community. It's not been Opened yet. What led you here? >> I didn't tweak. Dowy. I took it to be the ordinary meaning. I asked her, you know, whether she knew where it was. >> No, you asked her had she seen it. She said not since before her grandfather died, if you forgive the Irish. >> I know you're splitting hairs. >>

How many angels can fit on a pin head? She spoke the truth. She's not seen it since before his death. >> And people wonder why the police have no patience. I'd like to see her. Uh, not usual at this stage. Not for a time unless she particularly requests it. It's an enclosed order, you know. >> I could always make it official. >> Inspector Crust, who actually owns the bell? I suspect any court would find in favor of Elizabeth. >> Not the White Star, Collard, whoever the title is passed to now. >> Well, then who owns

the Elgen marbles, Cleopetra's Needle? Are all artifacts of uncertain providence herewith to be returned to the native countries or owners? Will they ever be, do you think? Only the lawyers would win yet again. And isn't it for the best the ship has gone? It was a symbol of man's pride, and man watched his pride trail in the dust. Especially, you can't really want this taken any further. So, what exactly do you want? >> [bell] >> I have mass and I'm officiating. Bit chitty, isn't it? Maybe you need a new one. Now that's one to put

aside for a sore toe. You have done it, Inspector. The perfect solution. Everyone served, including God. She'd appreciate it. I know. Is there a message perhaps? Minty, they're going home. Give her my regards, father. Tell her. Yeah. Nothing. You tell her nothing. She'll understand. Those little chefs look all right. We We could try one of those. Mr. Crust, look at that. the sun. Like a like a like like one of them planets on the telly. That one with rings only all all red and misty. I've never seen nothing like that. And Right behind us, too.
