  Speaker 1: And now let's keep our weekly appointment getting docta Watson.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: That's it. By the way, you know what day it to,
• 0:11
  November fifth, isn't it? That's right? In England it's known
• 0:14
  as Guy Fox Day.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: You ever heard there's something to do with a gunpowder plot,
• 0:19
  isn't it?
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: Yes, mister Boutell, it is. And as Sherlock Holmes and
• 0:22
  I had a very unusual venture on the fifth November
• 0:25
  many years ago, it seems appropriate that I should tell
• 0:28
  you about it tonight before I begin. I think it
• 0:31
  might help you to appreciate the true flavor of the
• 0:34
  story if I tell you a little about the origin
• 0:36
  and the customs of Guy Fox Day. That's well I did,
• 0:39
  Mike Watson, Well, my boy. On November the fifth, sixteen
• 0:42
  hundred and five, exactly three hundred and forty years ago today,
• 0:45
  King James the First was about to attend the opening
• 0:48
  of Parliament when the plot was discovered to blow up
• 0:51
  the House of Lords during the ceremony.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: And the chief conspirator was Guy Fox. I suppose yes
• 0:56
  he was.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: He was captured in the vault immediately below the House
• 0:58
  of Lords, a vault full of barrels of gunpowder. Of course,
• 1:02
  he and his fellow conspirators were executed, and ever since then,
• 1:06
  November the fifth has been known as Guy Fox Day.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Well, how's it celebrated.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: Well, it's a great time for the youngsters, mister Bartel.
• 1:13
  They blacked their faces, throng the streets, begging for pennies,
• 1:17
  and build bonfires in which to burn effiges of Guy Fox.
• 1:21
  These effiges are life sized dummies, stuffed with straw and
• 1:25
  dressed in old clothes. The children parade them in the streets,
• 1:29
  chanting rhymes. Well let me see, please to remember the
• 1:32
  fifth of November, Guy Fox. Guy hit him in the eye.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: The kids must have quite a time. It's sort of
• 1:39
  like Halloween.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's not unlike it, my boy. Well, now that
• 1:43
  I've told you something about the customs of Guy Fox Day,
• 1:46
  I'll get on with my story. If again, just before lunch.
• 1:49
  I remember on November fifth, eighteen hundred and ninety nine,
• 1:53
  the day was foggy and cold, and Holmes and I
• 1:56
  seated each side of a blazing fire in our Baker
• 1:59
  Street rooms. From outside, we could hear the sound of
• 2:02
  voices laughing and singing. Suddenly Holmes rose and crossed to
• 2:06
  the window, opened it and looked out. Then he turned
• 2:18
  to me and spoke, children.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Having a great time.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Wats montez?
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: Yes it cross, they're shilling worth ul pillage to walk
• 2:25
  here this morning?
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Has it occurred to you, Watson, with the gunpowder plot
• 2:28
  of us very promising material to the speculative mind?
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: In what way homes? I say? It's confoundedly chilly in here.
• 2:35
  Don't you think you might shut that window?
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: Sorry, old chap As I was saying, the gunpowder plot
• 2:42
  of us very promising material to the speculative mind. I
• 2:45
  made something of a study of the historical records of
• 2:47
  the case.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: There is more than a little.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: Evidence to suggest that King James was never in any
• 2:51
  real danger, never.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: In any danger. What makes you say.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: That knowledge of the proposed dastardy scheme came to light
• 2:58
  thirty the James Stewart, King of England, the possessor of
• 3:01
  a shrewd and diabolical mind, used the spectacular discovery of
• 3:05
  the plant to try and boaster his way in popularity,
• 3:08
  as well as to justify increased religious persecutions.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: It's the first I've heard of it.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I follow it's true, just the same.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: I'm afraid James Stuart, King of England was an unscrupulous tyrant.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Comen, Oh, yes, missus Hudson.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: There was a gentleman to see you, mister Holmes. He
• 3:24
  said it was very important.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: He asked me to give you his can thank Missus Hudson. Oh,
• 3:30
  ask him to come out to please William Hi.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: Who is a home a gentleman with a remarkably fine
• 3:35
  sense of timing.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Read disconnot for yourself.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Look, mister James Stewart, Great Scott's extronicas that he should
• 3:45
  arrive just as we're talking about James Stewart, King of England.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Comen, mister James Stewart, how do you do, mister Stuart.
• 3:54
  My am Michelle Ock Holmes, and this is my colleague doctor.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: How do you do?
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Mister Holmes. You've got to help me. I'm and a
• 4:00
  button model fear in my life. You've got to help me,
• 4:02
  mister Stewart. I suggest that you sit down.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: I'll do anything in my power to help you, but
• 4:06
  you must compose yourself first and tell me quietly what
• 4:08
  it is that's fighting you.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: How can I compose myself when I may be dead
• 4:11
  within a few hour?
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: And anonay, mister Stewart. I'm a doctor. I really think
• 4:14
  if I were to give you a sedative that you'd
• 4:16
  find out.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Can you talk of senators?
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: When?
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Doctor? All right? All right now here, let me help
• 4:23
  you in this sofa you are, yes, Holmes, I'll give
• 4:28
  him some digitalis a fellow with a bad heart like
• 4:32
  this shouldn't allow himself to get so excited this and
• 4:40
  now this, mister Stewart, what is it? It's digitalis very well?
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah? No, no better suh, Yes, mister Holmes, Yes I do.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Hey, You're right.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't get so excited. My heart can't stand it,
• 4:58
  you know, Watson? Is he well? And to talk to you?
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Think? Yes? Just an excited over again.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: I'll be careful doctor. I'll take it quietly, mister Holmes.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: When you saw my car, just know did it strike
• 5:12
  any responsive court?
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Naturally?
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Sir?
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: Who could fail to be intrigued when a James Stewart
• 5:17
  calls to see one on Guy Fox's day.
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: It isn't just coincidence that my name is James Stewart's.
• 5:22
  I've got royal blood in my veins. People know of it,
• 5:25
  and that's another reason they're out to tell me.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: They're jealous of.
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: My heritage, every instinct I have as a royal one. No,
• 5:31
  you gentlemen know that falconry is a king sport and
• 5:33
  my greatest hobby is the breeding in the training of
• 5:36
  false tuts.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: Mister Stewart, going to the state of your health, I
• 5:38
  suggest that you be as economic as possible in your explanation.
• 5:41
  In fact, I think it might be better if I
• 5:43
  would question you very well, mister Holmes. Now you say
• 5:46
  that your life is in danger. What evidence do you
• 5:48
  have to substantiate that claim.
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: My cousin, Guy Falkenby, has threatened it. Now you see,
• 5:53
  mister Holmes, he and I are the only heirs to.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: A wealthy uncle.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: His fortune will go to the surviving heir. If I
• 5:59
  were dead, Guy wouldn't hurt everything.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: Seem to me as the church that you should have
• 6:03
  applied to Scotland Yard for protection.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: I did, doctor Watson. Only a few days ago. I
• 6:08
  saw certain inspector Strada I think his name was, and
• 6:12
  he laughed at my.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Fears and he laughed at he Well, then in that
• 6:18
  case there may be something in your story.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Sir.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: You say that your cousin has threatened to kill you,
• 6:23
  has he indicated the method he intends to employ he has,
• 6:27
  and it's.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: A devilish plot.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: Guy has a bit of twisted sense of humor, gentleman,
• 6:32
  even when he's planning as dustily a thing as a murder.
• 6:35
  I am James Stewart. He is Guy Falkenby, which is
• 6:39
  near enough the guy Fox. Today is the fifth of November,
• 6:43
  and he's planning.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: To blow me up. Who come, Come, comes, You can't
• 6:48
  expect us.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: There through he won me in a celebration that going
• 6:53
  on in the streets of London day would make a
• 6:55
  rare cloak for his activities.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: I must confess, mister Stuart, that I find your story
• 6:59
  most unconvincing. All your evidence appears to depend on conversations
• 7:02
  held between you and this cousin of yours. You have
• 7:04
  no facts to substantiate your claims, but I have, then,
• 7:09
  please let us hear them.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: I'll live at twenty three Cavendish Square. A week ago
• 7:14
  the house next door to me was let to a
• 7:15
  new tenant. Almost immediately, workman became very active there. They
• 7:20
  were digging in the sellers. Mister Holmes, I could hear
• 7:22
  the sounds of picks and shovels through the walls.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Singing in the cellars. That does sound significant, ms.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Extremely did you observe any other activities of the workman,
• 7:32
  mister Stuart, mister Wilmes, vans.
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: Have been delivering large packing cases to the basement during
• 7:37
  the last two days.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: I know what send them to its gunpowder. I tell
• 7:42
  you they're planning to blow me up today, Nazis. Today
• 7:46
  you must excite yourself again. What shall I do, mister Holmes?
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: I think say it put the better of you to
• 7:51
  rest here for a while and then go to a
• 7:52
  nearby hotel. I would suggest the sharp spread and wait
• 7:56
  there until you hear from us.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: And where are you, gentlemen going?
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: What in an eye?
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: After donning'sises, well visit the house of joining yours and
• 8:02
  Cavendish Square. I think an examination of the cellar there
• 8:05
  might prove most illuminating.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Supposed to be the household right homes. The empty packing
• 8:23
  cases is still by the foot of the basement steps.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Let's go down and explore.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: On my solar. I feel a little self conscious of
• 8:32
  in these clothes.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: Only to my dear chap you look a most authentic
• 8:36
  inspector of plumbing. If anyone challenges us, you'd better let
• 8:40
  me do the talking, though I think my accent might
• 8:42
  be a little more convincing. Sh listen, I can't hear
• 8:48
  anything exactly. Then we may reasonably assume that either the
• 8:52
  workmen are observing the guy fox holiday or that their
• 8:55
  work is done.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Come on, let's find this door.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: It's unlocked.
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: Yes, this is too easy, Watson. We must be prepared
• 9:06
  for a tramp. Come on, I've gotten.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Out of all the handy. If there's there's any trouble.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: I don't use it until I tell you to remember
• 9:14
  we are supposed to becoming inspectors.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Spitch black in here.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: I can't see a thing, strike a match. If you
• 9:24
  can find a gas.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Jet, strike a match, or the cellar maybe full of
• 9:27
  drum Podder won't take the risk.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: O chat.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Right. Here's a gas jet. I light it. That's better.
• 9:37
  Now we can see.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: A little uh huh. I think the workmen have completed
• 9:42
  their job. See that new wood forming a crude door
• 9:45
  in the corner over there? Where does it lead to disperse?
• 9:47
  Let's find doubt? Oh, also unlocked. Here's a miner's mentor
• 10:00
  waiting conveniently for us on this ledge.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: This is ridiculously easy. Now, I'm sure it's a trap.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: I like the latter, Chris, it's a tunnel.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: Yes, it's a tunnel leading into mister Stuart's house next door.
• 10:14
  Let's explore it.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: Look comes, look at the barrels at a full gun powder.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: Undoubtedly we'll observed the fuses as well. Yes, the complete
• 10:30
  equipment for another gunpowder plot.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: I can't believe my eyes. What a fantastic plan. But
• 10:35
  how could the murderer be certain that Stuart would be
• 10:37
  killed in the explosion?
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: I think that's easily answered, Watson.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: Remember mister Stuart's bad heart in his present state of apprehension,
• 10:43
  and exploding fire cracker would be enough to kill him.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: I suppose, sir, Hello, Hello, what's this lying on the floor? Curious?
• 10:52
  It's a funny strip of silk with a little ring
• 10:55
  on the end.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Let me see it. Button, Ah, this seems to be familiar.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Bite Jove, I.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Believe it to jes. Yes.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: Well, the last piece of evidence necessary to confirm the conclusion.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: I take the hands above the heads.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: I've got a revolver, right, chard, Governor, you ain't done
• 11:13
  no harm.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: I remember watching. I'll do the talking.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: Come on at to come well, well, you're a comical
• 11:26
  looking pair. What are you doing in the Me and
• 11:29
  my mate got a message to come over here and
• 11:32
  see to the plumbing.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Mister plumbers.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Eh, do you have any identification?
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Yes, sair, here's my bad. We'll inspect us for the
• 11:38
  London County Council.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: Oh that's all right, my man. I saw the basement
• 11:42
  door open and I I thought Burgers might be here.

  You're the owner of this house, sir, yes, but my
• 11:47
  agent letter recently some tenants have been behaving rather queerly
• 11:50

  take this cab back to Baker Street, get out of these.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: Clothes and they serve their purpose. Now there's more serious
• 13:40
  work at foot.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm still confused about our interview with Guy Crockenby.
• 13:44
  Why did you.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Say your name was Tom n What touch a Bannet Hill?
• 13:47
  Follow Vanity?
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: How do you mean? Well?
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Consider the names in this case so far, Watson.
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: James Stewart says that he's been threatened by Guy falckenby
• 13:57
  a name. As mister Stuart points out, not unlike Guy Fox,
• 14:00
  you will call the names of the free tenants that
• 14:02
  mister Faulkner gave us a few minutes ago.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Yes, Winter, Rokewood and Canes. But what's that got to
• 14:07
  do with it?
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: A great deal?
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: Maripella, Thomas Winter, Ambo's Rokewood and Robert Kaines with a
• 14:14
  free men executed with Guy Fox in the original gunpow
• 14:16
  of Plopping sixte.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Lord, Where does Tom Nivetty, the name you gave yourself,
• 14:20
  fit into the picture?
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: Famas Knivitt was the Westminster magistrate who arrested the conspirators.
• 14:26
  Since there would be murderers such an academic knowledge of
• 14:29
  the original pot, I thought i'd let him know that
• 14:30
  he was up against him opponent worthy of your steel.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: We'll hear the.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Rest of doctor Watson story in just a few seconds.
• 14:45
  Just about time for me to remind you that if
• 14:47
  you want a wine that's sure to please the ladies,
• 14:50
  you can't miss with Patrie California Muscatel. That's because Patrie
• 14:54
  Musketell is a golden wine with one of the most
• 14:57
  luscious flavors you ever tasted. Did you ever taste a big,
• 15:01
  plump muscat grape that's ripened in the sun. If you had,
• 15:05
  then you know what to expect when you taste Petrie
• 15:07
  musket Tell. It's a wonderful wine, perfect after dinner and
• 15:11
  swell when company comes. Just remember that, won't you, Petrie
• 15:15
  musket Tell. Well, Doctor, you and mister Holmes were certainly
• 15:19
  having yourselves quite a guy foalks day. What happened when
• 15:22
  you got back to Baker Street.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: We changed out of our disguises and back into our
• 15:26
  neck clothes. I'm still pretty much in the dark as usual,
• 15:31
  and I kept Christening Holmes next to our next move,
• 15:35
  even in the state of suppressed excitement. And it was
• 15:38
  obvious as he spoke to me that he was anxious
• 15:41
  to be off.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: What's that's so much wuk ahead of.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: Us moving into girling up Dorley. I'm just as fas
• 15:48
  as I can. What's our next move.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: In the split off horses.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: Let's get a hold of my band of street echins,
• 15:54
  the Baker Street of regulars.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I'm going to surround.
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: Mister Stuart's house in Cavenger Square and they'll be invaluable
• 15:59
  for that purpose.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: What do you want me to do?
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: Papsy hotel and collect mister Stewart, then return with him
• 16:03
  to his house and wait for there. I shall join
• 16:06
  you as soon as I've rounded up the irregulars. But
• 16:07
  I must warn you don't leave mister Stuart for a moment.
• 16:11
  Don't let him be your sight until you see me again.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: Of course I want Holmes. But two I must say,
• 16:15
  idea of all that gunfer in the cellar doesn't make
• 16:18
  me feel in it too? Have hurt me?
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Old chat happy to me?
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: You know I wouldn't expose you to any danger if
• 16:23
  I could avoid it. And I assure you that I
• 16:24
  shall join you in mister Stewart, that is shortly you
• 16:26
  have your revolver?
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, of course good?
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: And UH give mister Stuart this revolver will you tell
• 16:34
  him that I insist that he carries it. I fear
• 16:36
  that his own has probably been tempered with at your homes.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: I'll see here this is a strange business. I must
• 16:44
  say that guy Falconer seemed such a decent sort of fellow.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, he appeared to be a most amiable fellow, didn't he.
• 16:51
  This is indeed an unusual case, Watson.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: We're up against one of the most sinister and twisted
• 16:56
  antagonists that we've ever met. Well, Chap, I leave now,
• 17:00
  I'll join you soon, and don't forget Stay close to
• 17:02
  mister Stuart, Stay very close to him.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Dr Watson.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: I wish your friend were here, Hannah, and I don't
• 17:17
  get so excited.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Mister Stewart, you'll be here any moment now. You've still
• 17:20
  got the revolver that I give you, Yes, that's in
• 17:22
  my pocket.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: But what's the good of a revolver if there should
• 17:25
  be an explosion?
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Answer me that if you can, and you must have
• 17:28
  faith in mister Halm. Sir. He's arranging now to have
• 17:31
  this house of yours surrounded by his band of street urchins.
• 17:34
  They'll see that no one gets to the seller next
• 17:36
  door to light diffuses.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: A bunch of children. How can they do anything?
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: You don't know? The Baker's Street irregular is mister Stuart,
• 17:44
  and it's a perfect day for them to operate as
• 17:47
  black faced boys begging for pennys. They pass unnoticed anywhere.
• 17:51
  I hope you're right, but.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I have a premonition.
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: Doctor, there's going to be a tragedy.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: I know, and I'll take it easy, sir. Remember your heart.
• 17:59
  You're in flint in hands when Sharlock Holmes is on
• 18:01
  the case. Here is now Holmes, I sir, I'm glad
• 18:05
  to see you.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: You received your visitor, yet visit them.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: We've seen no one than beyond the lit I've just
• 18:11
  been questioning the boys surrounding this house. A few moments ago,
• 18:14
  some children pulled a small cart up to the back door.
• 18:17
  Can't continue a life sized dummy in my irregulars thought
• 18:20
  that it was a lethargy on its way to a pumpa.
• 18:22
  Why shouldn't it be home reason to believe that it's
• 18:24
  someone visiting you in disguise, mister Stuart, a visitor who
• 18:29
  is mounting the back stairs at this very moment.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: You've got to tell by me homes.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: You've got to take me come in. Whoo, who get
• 18:39
  the appari sate?
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Guy fowks down, dark from his hand, and it's walking
• 18:45
  and also talking.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: I trust, keep away from me.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: I got off over say you won't give me one,
• 18:53
  not take two?
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Not better for me and the worse for you.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: It's guy walking, keep away from me. You here bet
• 19:00
  me are the worst for you? All right, then I'm
• 19:02
  going to fire.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: There is, mister Stirth. The revolver I've provided for you
• 19:07
  seems to be unloaded. How very odd?
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: What in fun is all this about?
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: I just witnessed an attempted murder, Watson murder? What are
• 19:13
  you talking about?
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: This is a game, James and I had it arranged
• 19:15
  the whole thing.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: You may have thought it was a game, mister Polkerby,
• 19:17
  but I assure you that your quiet mister stud Watson's.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Leave it alone.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: Take your hands off me, help me put him on
• 19:27
  the sofa, give him some digitalists. Look, I don't want
• 19:33
  to appear unnecessarily stop it, but will someone tell me
• 19:35
  what this is all about?
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: With pleasure?
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Mister Polkerby, your cousin planned one of the most fantastic
• 19:40
  murder plots that I've ever encountered.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: He came to us with the story that you would
• 19:44
  threaten his life.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: That's ridiculous.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: I'm very fond of him, of course, it's ridiculous. The
• 19:47
  whole plot is ridiculous. He leased the house next door,
• 19:51
  had a tunnel dug and gun power infuses planted there.
• 19:55
  Even entered the name of the tenant, says Winter, brokewood
• 19:57
  and canes to give the apparent blood a further authenticity.
• 20:01
  You mean my cousin was the real tenant, certainly he was. However,
• 20:04
  he was toumsy enough to drop that piece of silk
• 20:07
  with the wild ring on the end that you founded
• 20:09
  the cella Watson, so you called a jess.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: And what's a jess.
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: It's a strap that goes round the falcon's legs which
• 20:14
  its leash is fastened. You will remember that mister Stuart
• 20:16
  informed us that falconray is his hobby, and it therefore
• 20:21
  indicated that he had been in the cellar and consequently
• 20:24
  must have known about the whole plot.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: And all he was trying to do is to build
• 20:27
  up in our minds of belief.
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: That his cousin was trying to kill him exactly, my
• 20:30
  dear fellow, had we believed him of course he could
• 20:33
  have shut you just now, mister Faulknby in apparent self defense.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: God lord, what a fantastic plot. I still can't find it.
• 20:40
  Mister Falkinby, why are you dressed as a guy Fawk's dummy? Well,
• 20:43
  it was James's idea.
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: He said that he was going to dress up too,
• 20:46
  and that we were to go round the pondfast and
• 20:48
  night and frightened people by my appearing as live dummies.
• 20:50
  But the last message he sent for me to come
• 20:52
  up here, that we'd play a practical joke on a couple.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Of friends of his.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: And did he provide you with a costume that you're wearing. Yes,
• 20:57
  as a matter of fact, he did.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: If you searched the pockets for an weapons, no, but
• 21:01
  I will. All right, while you're doing that, I'll examine
• 21:02
  this dark lantern. How's your patient, Watson.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: I've given him some digitalis and now give him some friends.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: I can't find anything in the pockets.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: Here's the answer, my friends. Look here inside the lantern
• 21:15
  has a dagger. Your cousin planted it there to substantiate
• 21:18
  the claim that you were trying to kill him. Had
• 21:20
  his plans worked, you would have been dead, mister parkinbay
• 21:23
  before you could have told.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Us the truth.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Come back here, mister Still he's hand it.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: He's peaking the hot deck.
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: Come on, what's not home?
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: Homes? Well, are you out of the way? Please call me?
• 21:53
  It comes me a chance. Excuse me, please, I'm trying
• 21:57
  to find a friend of mine. First important bombs. Well
• 22:02

• 22:03

• 22:06

• 22:11

• 22:13

• 22:19
  Weather your regulars.
• 22:20

• 22:27

  Now you got some sunny go with you. And oh,
• 22:35

• 22:37
  Speaker 4: Did you see a man run through this crowd a
• 22:38
  few minutes? Go, h toys man with the graves stage.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, I did.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: My man came running out of the house over there
• 22:43
  next to the house. Where go he runs down.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: Toward where the shops talk any shut up?
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: He did the woman We are going to burn him
• 22:50
  upon fire. I tried to stop and he got palms homes.
• 22:53
  Look up there on the roof there's a figure Joe.
• 22:55
  I believe it's James Good.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: That's the man.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: He's the one that's stole off dummy. He's dead up,
• 23:00
  he's going to jump.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: If he does, he's going along on a porn fire.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: There he goes. He is jumping right into the middle
• 23:09
  of the far he'll be don't worry.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Begins.
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: That was no man who fell into the back PI.
• 23:15
  What do you mean from the girations with the pick
• 23:17
  up a phone?
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: Does it kill my dear Watson.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: I'm convinced that mister Sturt threw the stolen dummy to
• 23:22
  try and put us off the track.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: And then Stuart's still up there. Here's Watson.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Come on, old boy, it's up on the rooftops for us.
• 23:27
  Up on the rooftop, yeah, Watson, let me help you up.

  Speaker 2: Can you reach my hand? I got it all right,
• 23:51
  then up? Can come come on?
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: That's it. That fire escape is supposed to be designed
• 23:58
  for joans.
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: Keep your eye skindled fellow Stuart's dangerous man might be
• 24:04
  hiding behind those chimneystacks.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: Come on, for my soul, this is a strange place
• 24:10
  to be on Guy Fox Night.
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: Yes, a comprehensive case. Watson starts in a cellar and
• 24:16
  ends on the rooftop.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: Look homes.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: By the power of it, there crumpled body of mister
• 24:21
  Stuart looks to me as if it.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's dead. Homes.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not surprising.
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: The efort of carrying the dummy up here and throwing it,
• 24:31
  combined with his own state of excitement, for too much
• 24:33
  for him.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: Oh thank you. I can't say that. I'm sorry.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: No, he planned a murder. Haven't been for you? He
• 24:39
  would have succeeded. An extraordinary case.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: Homes, Yes, old Chapin, one that should long make us
• 24:45
  remember the fifth of November. Yes, please to remember the
• 24:48
  fifth of November, Gunpowder treason and plot.

  Speaker 2: I see no reason why gunpowder treason should ever be forgotten.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: I then, as we went to them,
