I'm not that drunk. 204 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,658 - And I'll drive. - All right, you drive... 205 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,723 Whoa! 206 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,340 Do you think we'd better tie that down? 207 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,060 - What for? - The road is bumpy. 208 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,540 Aw, just past the nursing home, he said. It's only half a mile. 209 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:19,801 - Right. - Giddyup! 210 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,682 The mummy. 211 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,220 It's waiting. 212 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,750 It's always there. 213 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,563 Help! Help! Help! 214 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,811 - That's from the nuthouse. - Perhaps one of them got out. 215 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,100 The box isn't half moving about. 216 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,540 You'd better slow down over the causeway. 217 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,220 I'm not going to have my throat cut by no lunatic. 218 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,288 Not for all the relics in Egypt. 219 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,500 Take care, Jim. You'll have me in too if you're not careful. 220 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,740 Oh, it's hopeless. 221 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,731 Parts of this bog are next to bottomless. We'll never find it. 222 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,127 Now, for some particulars, if you don't mind. 223 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,780 First, what was on the cart? 224 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,700 A great, ruddy box. We was taking it to the house up the ways there. 225 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,180 - And what was in the box? - I don't know. 226 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,220 But whatever it was, I reckon it's better at the bottom of the bog. 227 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,940 Why do you say that? 228 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,169 It's my idea there was something in that box which wasn't quite right. 229 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:26,500 I see. Now, where do you say you was taking the box? 230 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,780 Up the ways there. A big house, set back, he said. 231 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,247 - Who said? - I said, Officer. 232 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,844 Oh. Morning, sir. 233 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,165 You was expecting this box? 234 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,220 Yes, I was. 235 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,340 I engaged this man and his companion to transport it from the station. 236 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,807 I see. Well, hard luck, isn't it? 237 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:48,740 I mean, losing it like this. 238 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,888 Is it quite irrecoverable? 239 00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:53,620 Oh, yes, sir. Quite. 240 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,564 I see. Thank you, Officer. 241 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:01,125 One moment, sir, if you don't mind. The contents of the box? 242 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:06,885 Relics, Officer. Egyptian relics. Nothing more. 243 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,580 I'm very sorry, Mr Banning. I simply cannot explain it. 244 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,060 First, we have this recovery after three years, and now this. 245 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,060 I've never known him so violent. 246 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,780 He seems to have a persecution mania. 247 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,780 He... He thinks there's somebody who wants to kill him. 248 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,531 - When did it start? - Yesterday evening. 249 00:23:31,360 --> 00:23:34,260 There's... There's nothing I can do I suppose. 250 00:23:34,360 --> 00:23:35,940 Nothing whatever, I'm afraid. 251 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,700 We have him in a padded cell for his own safety. 252 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:40,980 Is that really necessary? 253 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,900 We cannot possibly afford to take any chances. 254 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,526 He may do himself a serious injury. 255 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,291 You see, with this persecution complex, 256 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,406 he's quite liable to take his own life in order 257 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,569 to cheat whoever he thinks is after him. It's quite common. 258 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,180 But what could have put him in this state of mind? 259 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,806 As far as I know, he hasn't an enemy in the world. 260 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:26,540 Great Karnak, god of all light and darkness, 261 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,440 hear this prayer from the humblest of your servants. 262 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,844 Help me in my task. 263 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,580 Make my way easy, that I may achieve your desires 264 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,365 and return to the land of my forebears. 265 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,940 "Return, O Ka, the double.

Perhaps we'll find something there. 300 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,180 He was in the nursing home for three years. 301 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,820 And before that, 10 years in Egypt. 302 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,925 Then, we'll have plenty to work on. Father kept a record of everything. 303 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,100 I still don't know exactly what we're looking for. 304 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:51,001 I don't really know myself. A letter, a note. Anything that may give us a lead. 305 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,060 But, Uncle, you knew Father pretty well. 306 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:59,260 Did he ever mention anyone to you who bore him a grudge or he disliked? 307 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:03,740 I never remember your father saying a harsh word about anyone ever. 308 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,260 - Except that Egyptian fellow that time. - What Egyptian? 309 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,980 You remember I told you. The day we entered Ananka's tomb. 310 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,401 - The man who tried to stop us. - Yes, yes, I remember. 311 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,780 That sort of thing was always happening. 312 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,740 "Dear Mr Banning, unless this account is settled..." 313 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,444 So much debt. 314 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,180 He was such a methodical man in everything else, 315 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,442 but he would leave paying bills to the last minute. 316 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,740 He was always being sued. 317 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,140 If you could remember the argument you had when you decided to take him in hand? 318 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,500 He said he was perfectly capable of dealing with his own business affairs. 319 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,180 And two minutes later, there was a little man on the doorstep serving a writ. 320 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,445 We had a good laugh about it afterwards. 321 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,643 You were very fond of your father, weren't you? 322 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,522 Yes. Yes, I was. 323 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,340 In spite of that leg. 324 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,445 That was my own fault. I could have gone back to base and had it set. 325 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,801 Then all the trouble started. 326 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,180 Do you remember that day? 327 00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,700 I don't think I shall ever forget it. 328 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:04,647 That look on your father's face when he realised he'd discovered Ananka's tomb. 329 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:06,969 And then afterwards. 330 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:11,980 It was... It was never really established what made him crack, was it? 331 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,940 - Overwork and the excitement. - That was the doctor's verdict. 332 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,180 That's what it was. What else could it have been? 333 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:22,060 I can't get out of my mind what Father said to me the other day when I went to see him. 334 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,060 All that nonsense about the living mummy and the Scroll of Life? 335 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:26,740 - Mmm-hmm. - You'd better, 336 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,730 otherwise you'll be having a breakdown too. 337 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,140 - What's that? - The Ananka folio. 338 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,340 - Do you know the legend? - Vaguely, yes. What about it? 339 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,762 - Do you know it? - No, I don't really. 340 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:54,529 Some wild story about the living dead. That sort of thing, wasn't it? 341 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,243 And here it is. 342 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,500 "In the year 2000 BC, 343 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:05,367 "the Princess Ananka, high
