I've done enough. 11 00:01:18,990 --> 00:01:19,990 He's not moving. 12 00:01:20,090 --> 00:01:21,290 What? Let's have a look. 13 00:01:25,230 --> 00:01:26,230 He's dead. 14 00:01:26,610 --> 00:01:29,170 We've killed him. Are you sure? Yes, come on, let's get out of here. But we 15 00:01:29,170 --> 00:01:32,130 can't leave him here. I said someone's got to move him. Come on, let's get out 16 00:01:32,130 --> 00:01:33,130 of here. 17 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,680 What about silver boy? 18 00:02:11,300 --> 00:02:12,300 Sir Philly. 19 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,080 Oh, yes, yes, of course. 20 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,680 Tax collector out of silver virgin. 21 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:22,719 What's that? 22 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,920 I was just reposing the problem. 23 00:02:25,300 --> 00:02:26,440 I've got it. 24 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,200 Shining money. 25 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,680 Tax collector money, silver shining. 26 00:02:31,340 --> 00:02:32,340 Revenue girl. 27 00:02:32,860 --> 00:02:35,740 Tax money, virgin girl. 28 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,270 Oh. That sounds all right. 29 00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:40,150 Let's see if it's been used. 30 00:02:41,570 --> 00:02:44,490 Ah, red new girl, won a handicap in 1959. 31 00:02:44,990 --> 00:02:48,850 And lost the St. Michael's stakes in 51 and my shirt along with it. Good 32 00:02:48,850 --> 00:02:50,990 morning, sir. Can I help you? How do you do, Mr. Meadows? 33 00:02:51,290 --> 00:02:53,990 No, pantry, major pantry. Ah, still at the Jockey Club. 34 00:02:54,310 --> 00:02:55,209 That's right, yes. 35 00:02:55,210 --> 00:02:56,009 This is Mr. 36 00:02:56,010 --> 00:02:59,030 Meadows. Look, I'm terribly sorry. My name is Steed. One of your stablemen 37 00:02:59,030 --> 00:03:00,030 me I'd find you here. 38 00:03:00,050 --> 00:03:03,370 What can we do for you, Mr. Steed? Well, I'm here about the new four -year -old 39 00:03:03,370 --> 00:03:04,790 you're staving, Sebastian II. 40 00:03:05,170 --> 00:03:06,170 Are you from the press? 41 00:03:06,350 --> 00:03:07,730 No, no, I'm from the Foreign Office. 42 00:03:08,130 --> 00:03:12,630 Oh. We're concerned about Sebastian, you know. Well, that's extremely good of 43 00:03:12,630 --> 00:03:14,890 you. He comes from a very good home. 44 00:03:15,350 --> 00:03:19,570 You know... Oh, thank you. A horse belonging to a Sultan is a little like a 45 00:03:19,570 --> 00:03:21,050 visiting the country. 46 00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:23,730 Well, you might have given him some VIP treatment, mightn't you? 47 00:03:23,990 --> 00:03:25,650 Waved your silly quarantine rules. 48 00:03:25,930 --> 00:03:27,190 Aren't they so? Has there been some trouble? 49 00:03:27,650 --> 00:03:30,570 Sebastian's become very attached to one of the Sultan's spaniels. 50 00:03:31,170 --> 00:03:34,410 Normally they travel together, otherwise he gets very nervous. There's no other 51 00:03:34,410 --> 00:03:37,150 country where Britain refuses to let a dog into you. No, it's a crying shame. 52 00:03:37,510 --> 00:03:40,330 No trouble about a racehorse, though, so long as he's to race. 53 00:03:40,690 --> 00:03:43,370 You're not suggesting there should be quarantine for thoroughbreds, are you? 54 00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:45,550 no, certainly not, Major. I should think not, indeed. 55 00:03:46,530 --> 00:03:49,570 Like some sherry? Thank you very much. What exactly do you want to know, Steve? 56 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,740 Well, this is the first time a Sultan's entered a horse in this country. It 57 00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:55,180 wouldn't help some rather delicate negotiations going on at this moment if 58 00:03:55,180 --> 00:03:56,180 anything were to happen to Sebastian. 59 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,920 What do they think might happen? Well, the recent doping scandals, you know, in 60 00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:02,000 the country. Frightful business, that. Absolutely frightful. 61 00:04:02,260 --> 00:04:05,960 Thank you. I take it your people think I don't know how to look after a horse? 62 00:04:05,980 --> 00:04:09,580 No, no, no, of course not. If you prefer, you could stable him in number 63 00:04:09,580 --> 00:04:10,418 Downing Street. 64 00:04:10,420 --> 00:04:13,340 I don't think that the Prime Minister would like that too much, a rather small 65 00:04:13,340 --> 00:04:15,860 house. No, I think that this letter will explain everything. 66 00:04:17,260 --> 00:04:19,839 It's not that we want to take him away, you know, just keep an eye on him. 67 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,100 This Salton fellow, we want his oil, don't we? 68 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,900 That, amongst other things, any unfortunate incident might sever what 69 00:04:25,900 --> 00:04:27,240 could be a very beautiful friendship. 70 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:28,759 Hmm. 71 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,440 Well, I think this is an impertinence. 72 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,340 It seems to be in order. 73 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,360 What exactly do you want to do? 74 00:04:34,620 --> 00:04:36,120 Oh, just be around, you know. 75 00:04:36,380 --> 00:04:37,380 Now, look here. 76 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,600 I've never had any trouble with doping. Is that what you're worried about? 77 00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:43,820 Of course not. My stables are more difficult to get into than most banks. 78 00:04:44,460 --> 00:04:48,500 Sir. I suppose you want to drop by now, then? Thank you. Thank you very much, 79 00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:50,780 Miss Meadows. And thank you, Major, for the sharing. Morning, everyone. 80 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,980 Oh, hello. This is Mr. 81 00:04:53,420 --> 00:04:54,700 Steed, my daughter Anne. 82 00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:57,000 How do you do? Oh, hello. 83 00:04:57,420 --> 00:05:00,200 Perhaps you could show him over to the stables, Anne. Yes, of course. 84 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,660 By the way, have you found a name for the new filly? Ah, no, no, no, not yet. 85 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,920 Awful problem, you know. You can't use a name that's been used before, and the 86 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,320 name must have some connection with its sire and dame. Yes, Tax Collector out of 87 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,340 Silver Virgin. Tax Collector out of Silver Virgin. Yes, well, we don't want 88 00:05:15,340 --> 00:05:18,300 bother Steve with that. Now, perhaps you can give it a thought at. I've done 89 00:05:18,300 --> 00:05:19,320 nothing else all morning. 90 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,400 Would you like to come with me, Mr. Steve? 91 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,240 Delighted, yes. Tax Collector out of Silver Virgin. 92 00:05:24,580 --> 00:05:25,580 That's right. 93 00:05:25,620 --> 00:05:26,620 How about impossible? 94 00:05:27,620 --> 00:05:29,780 Well, goodbye. See you later, gentlemen. 95 00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:44,100 This place is a mess, Brown. I want you to clean it up when you get back. You 96 00:05:44,100 --> 00:05:45,400 ready to go? Yeah. Right. 97 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,020 Morning, ma 'am. Morning, Jonathan. How's Sebastian? 98 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,080 Well, he's a bit jumpy after this morning's gallop. He hasn't settled down 99 00:05:55,180 --> 00:05:57,540 Anything special you wanted, ma 'am? Oh, no, we just want to look at him. Thank 100 00:05:57,540 --> 00:05:58,830 you, Jonathan. Yes, ma 'am. Morning, sir. 101 00:05:59,190 --> 00:06:01,190 Afternoon. Well, come on out, you old devil. 102 00:06:01,430 --> 00:06:04,290 Well, he is a fine fellow, isn't he? If you want to make yourself known to 103 00:06:04,290 --> 00:06:05,910 Sebastian, you'd better be properly introduced. 104 00:06:06,250 --> 00:06:09,690 Here, give him some sugar. Oh, the Sultan's compliments. I'm very sorry it 105 00:06:09,690 --> 00:06:10,549 Turkish delight. 106 00:06:10,550 --> 00:06:13,430 Why are you so interested in Sebastian? 107 00:06:13,810 --> 00:06:16,050 Well, there are certain people, you know, in Whitehall, they wouldn't like 108 00:06:16,050 --> 00:06:18,830 anything to happen to Sebastian, would they, old boy? You have a good nibble 109 00:06:18,830 --> 00:06:21,330 there. On the other hand, I don't think they need worry. I've never seen such 110 00:06:21,330 --> 00:06:22,330 security arrangements. 111 00:06:22,730 --> 00:06:26,350 Do they always have these electrified fences around training establishments? 112 00:06:26,430 --> 00:06:30,730 Steve, we don't just let any Tom, Dick or Harry in here, you know. Oh, no, I 113 00:06:30,730 --> 00:06:31,589 very impressed. 114 00:06:31,590 --> 00:06:35,510 Do you know anything about horses, Mr. Steve? Yes, I know which end is which. 115 00:06:35,650 --> 00:06:36,730 Oh, thank goodness for that. 116 00:06:36,990 --> 00:06:40,890 I thought you might be one of those terribly dull civil servants. Oh, horse. 117 00:06:40,890 --> 00:06:42,970 you ever heard of a horse that was kinky about a spaniel? 118 00:06:43,410 --> 00:06:45,690 I think I'll have a little more sugar, young lady, if you don't mind. 119 00:06:45,950 --> 00:06:46,909 Mind your fingers. 120 00:06:46,910 --> 00:06:49,690 Whoops. Oh, he nearly got me the first time. Look, perhaps we could go riding 121 00:06:49,690 --> 00:06:50,690 together one day. 122 00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:54,540 With you, young lady, that'd be a pleasure. That could be fun, couldn't 123 00:06:54,540 --> 00:06:56,020 Sebastian? We'll all do that. 124 00:06:57,860 --> 00:07:00,200 You ever find anybody trying to get at your horses? 125 00:07:00,500 --> 00:07:03,980 No, and we don't intend to either. No one could get in here, not even the 126 00:07:03,980 --> 00:07:04,899 if they wanted to. 127 00:07:04,900 --> 00:07:05,980 Well, what about the stablemen? 128 00:07:06,300 --> 00:07:09,080 Oh, well, most of the men working here started as boy apprentices. 129 00:07:09,740 --> 00:07:10,760 I know them all. 130 00:07:11,380 --> 00:07:14,640 Oh, really? I can assure you they're absolutely loyal to my father. 131 00:07:27,020 --> 00:07:29,220 Right, well, I think that settles your next assignment, Brown. 132 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:36,760 Oh, by the way, you'll find a gentleman waiting outside. Would you send him in, 133 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:37,880 please? Thank you. 134 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,460 There was a bloke down at the stable this morning wanting to look at a 135 00:07:42,460 --> 00:07:43,900 horse. Oh, do you know who he was? 136 00:07:44,180 --> 00:07:45,180 Never seen him before. 137 00:07:45,220 --> 00:07:46,900 In the foreign office or something. Really? 138 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,820 Oh, it's probably nothing to worry about. 139 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:53,720 Well, well. 140 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:55,760 Come on in. 141 00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:01,440 Sit down. There's no charge. 142 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:08,560 Get him a brandy. 143 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,060 I believe you wanted to see me. Yes, I always like to see people after they've 144 00:08:15,060 --> 00:08:16,060 done the job for me. 145 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,060 Didn't you know the man had a weak heart? 146 00:08:18,380 --> 00:08:21,480 Mr. Fortune, or should I say, the Honorable. 147 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,000 When a client opens a tough account with me, I don't demand to see a medical 148 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,000 certificate. 149 00:08:26,260 --> 00:08:30,040 Everyone knows that if they try to take a bookmaker for a ride like Kirby did or 150 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,440 like you tried to do, they've got to face the consequences. 151 00:08:33,940 --> 00:08:35,980 I don't think I wish to accept your hospitality. 152 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,120 Let's see. 153 00:08:40,419 --> 00:08:41,780 How much did you owe me? 154 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,080 A thousand pounds. 155 00:08:43,380 --> 00:08:46,620 You placed bets on credit knowing you didn't have that kind of money in the 156 00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:50,340 bank? It's not against the law. Ah, a lot of people think that, but they're 157 00:08:50,340 --> 00:08:51,319 wrong. 158 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,940 It's as much a crime to defraud a bookmaker as it is to defraud a tailor. 159 00:08:56,300 --> 00:09:00,080 Look, the debt was cancelled out last night, wasn't it? I accepted your third 160 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,240 alternative. Yes, alternative one, to pay up, which in your case was 161 00:09:05,420 --> 00:09:07,280 Alternative two, to get beaten up. 162 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:08,520 Very painful. 163 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,740 Alternative three, to help beat up someone else who owed me money. So now 164 00:09:12,740 --> 00:09:14,160 quits. Not quite. 165 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,880 I want to know what you intend to do next. 166 00:09:17,140 --> 00:09:18,039 That's my business. 167 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,440 Perhaps, but I'd like to hear about it. 168 00:09:25,569 --> 00:09:26,930 I intend to leave the country. 169 00:09:29,250 --> 00:09:30,250 I see. 170 00:09:31,430 --> 00:09:34,270 Well, I don't think we can really agree to that. But it's got nothing to do with 171 00:09:34,270 --> 00:09:38,430 you. I have my social conscience to consider. You're a non -convicted 172 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:41,290 I never touched the man. Johnson did it. I had to drag him off. 173 00:09:41,510 --> 00:09:42,510 Is that so, Johnson? 174 00:09:42,730 --> 00:09:44,990 No. He freed him up, not me. But that's a lie. 175 00:09:45,230 --> 00:09:46,230 Sure. 176 00:09:46,670 --> 00:09:47,670 Sure. 177 00:09:48,010 --> 00:09:49,010 We all know that. 178 00:09:50,050 --> 00:09:53,690 But what Mr. Johnson and I want to impress on you is how it could look to a 179 00:09:53,690 --> 00:09:54,690 judge and jury. 180 00:09:55,180 --> 00:09:58,720 You see, Kirby's body was removed last night by some other friends of mine. 181 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,700 I only have to lift one of these telephones. 182 00:10:01,500 --> 00:10:06,620 This is really what you'd call checkmate, Mr. Armour. You're involved 183 00:10:06,620 --> 00:10:07,620 well, Houston. Really? 184 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,920 You and Johnson came to me, offered your services as debt collectors. I thought 185 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,100 you were a genuine little two -man agency. I wasn't to know anything about 186 00:10:15,100 --> 00:10:16,900 methods. And you betray Johnson? 187 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,640 He came to the pinch, yes. 188 00:10:19,260 --> 00:10:22,500 Except he's a friend of long standing and he'd be in South America before 189 00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:23,500 knew anything about it. 190 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,040 But you're not quite in that category yet. 191 00:10:26,460 --> 00:10:28,120 Are you suggesting that I could be? 192 00:10:28,780 --> 00:10:31,020 You have two alternatives open to you now. 193 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,360 One, go to prison for manslaughter. That's if they're lenient and don't 194 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:35,239 for murder. 195 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,740 Two, that you become another of my long -standing friends. 196 00:10:39,060 --> 00:10:43,280 And collect more debts for you. No, no, no, no. Nothing so crude. I run another 197 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,600 business, far more refined. 198 00:10:45,220 --> 00:10:46,380 We need men like you. 199 00:10:47,260 --> 00:10:49,780 Strong in lineage and a little light on principle. 200 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:51,660 I don't think I'm interested. 201 00:10:53,670 --> 00:10:55,090 I'm afraid you have no choice. 202 00:10:56,250 --> 00:10:58,170 You see, we kill people to order. 203 00:10:58,870 --> 00:11:00,230 A man like you would be useful. 204 00:11:01,110 --> 00:11:03,710 Good manners, public school accent, acceptable anywhere. 205 00:11:04,950 --> 00:11:07,610 You'd be highly trained and grossly overpaid. 206 00:11:08,310 --> 00:11:09,870 Now go away and think about it. 207 00:11:12,470 --> 00:11:16,110 Come on. And before you get any high -minded ideas about running to the 208 00:11:16,310 --> 00:11:17,870 remember Kirby. 209 00:11:22,370 --> 00:11:26,190 I'll give you till tomorrow morning to make up your mind. 210 00:11:35,030 --> 00:11:36,030 Well, 211 00:11:36,430 --> 00:11:37,710 I apologize for earlier remarks. 212 00:11:37,950 --> 00:11:41,810 You ride very well. Thank you very much. I didn't expect racehorses to be, well, 213 00:11:41,870 --> 00:11:43,630 to change direction quite so sharply. 214 00:11:44,310 --> 00:11:45,670 Oh, did you want something, Smith? 215 00:11:45,970 --> 00:11:48,870 Beg your pardon, Miss, but I was waiting to see your father. I'm afraid he's not 216 00:11:48,870 --> 00:11:50,570 here. Is there anything I can do? 217 00:11:51,050 --> 00:11:56,090 No, it was your father I wanted to see. It's just this murder charge they've got 218 00:11:56,090 --> 00:11:58,350 my brother on. Comes up next week. When did you hear this? 219 00:11:58,630 --> 00:12:00,490 It's in the paper, miss. Where? Show me. 220 00:12:00,830 --> 00:12:01,830 See, there. 221 00:12:02,830 --> 00:12:04,710 Oh, Smith, this is terrible. 222 00:12:06,110 --> 00:12:07,590 Oh, hello, Anne. Your father around? 223 00:12:07,890 --> 00:12:08,869 No, he's in town. 224 00:12:08,870 --> 00:12:10,230 Oh, pity. I wanted to see him. 225 00:12:10,690 --> 00:12:13,830 I'm sure Greg is charging too much for those moth -eaten carrots of his. 226 00:12:14,700 --> 00:12:18,420 Am I butting in? It's about Smith's brother. He's coming up on trial. Oh, 227 00:12:18,420 --> 00:12:19,420 see. What happened exactly? 228 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:20,800 Oh, amazing story. 229 00:12:21,540 --> 00:12:22,540 Apprentice Jockey disappears. 230 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,940 A month later, turns up in South America, of all places. Takes a pot shot 231 00:12:26,940 --> 00:12:29,560 plantation tycoon he's never seen before. Misses and gets caught. 232 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,080 Amazing. You mean he disappeared from here? From these very stables. 233 00:12:33,780 --> 00:12:35,640 Reliable lad. Keen. Good rider. 234 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:36,980 Apprentice to Meadows since he was 15. 235 00:12:37,260 --> 00:12:39,900 What about the British Embassy out there? Can't they help you, brother? 236 00:12:39,900 --> 00:12:42,160 nothing much they can do. Evidence damning. Court red -handed. 237 00:12:42,570 --> 00:12:45,070 If you beg pardon, sir, I found something out that might help. 238 00:12:46,070 --> 00:12:49,370 Jerry was in debt. He was gambling, haven't he? Not Jerry. Begging horses? 239 00:12:49,750 --> 00:12:50,750 I'm afraid so, sir. 240 00:12:50,970 --> 00:12:53,570 Well, didn't he know the rules of the stable? Well, of course, sir, but I 241 00:12:53,570 --> 00:12:54,570 suppose he was tempted. 242 00:12:55,290 --> 00:12:58,370 Anyhow, I found this old notebook among his things where he put down which 243 00:12:58,370 --> 00:13:00,490 horses he was backing and how much he was losing. 244 00:13:00,950 --> 00:13:04,010 I think maybe that's why he went away. No reason to try and commit a murder. 245 00:13:04,350 --> 00:13:08,790 I was thinking if I could get out there, I could talk to him. Do you know who he 246 00:13:08,790 --> 00:13:09,769 owed money to? 247 00:13:09,770 --> 00:13:11,430 No, sir, that's what I'd like to find out. 248 00:13:12,319 --> 00:13:13,319 All right. 249 00:13:13,660 --> 00:13:14,660 Have you got a bank account? 250 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,760 No, sir. Well, I'll make it out to cash. Enough to cover your fare and moderate 251 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:19,760 expenses. 252 00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:21,980 I'll speak to Mr. Meadows and get him to give you a week off. 253 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,060 Thank you. Thank you very much, sir. If you're sure you're all right, don't you 254 00:13:25,060 --> 00:13:28,000 worry. I'll fix it with Mr. Meadows. Well, don't forget there's a credit and 255 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,540 tomorrow. You're riding in that. 256 00:13:29,820 --> 00:13:33,460 Go before then, miss. Want to let Mr. Meadows down or the major? Good. Then 257 00:13:33,460 --> 00:13:34,099 that's settled. 258 00:13:34,100 --> 00:13:36,160 Thank you very much, major. Thank you, miss. 259 00:13:38,140 --> 00:13:40,020 Thank you, sir. Good luck to you tomorrow. 260 00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:42,510 That was very kind of you, Major. 261 00:13:42,830 --> 00:13:44,410 I must look after the troops, you know. 262 00:13:44,710 --> 00:13:47,850 Anyway, if he rides me a winner tomorrow, I shall be amply repaid. I 263 00:13:47,850 --> 00:13:48,369 getting along. 264 00:13:48,370 --> 00:13:49,530 Goodbye. Let's hope he will, eh? 265 00:13:50,710 --> 00:13:53,170 He's a very generous man, the Major. When did he start owning horses? 266 00:13:53,430 --> 00:13:56,750 Only the last few years, I think. I remember he used to say how poor he was 267 00:13:56,750 --> 00:13:59,550 after he came out of the army. Living on his pension, you know. 268 00:13:59,830 --> 00:14:01,510 He was quite bitter about it. 269 00:14:02,350 --> 00:14:04,390 I suppose he must have been lucky on horses. 270 00:14:05,570 --> 00:14:06,890 Yes, I suppose he must have. 271 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,040 They're on the start of orders now, but three fingers have turned around. Oh, 272 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,100 another transfer supervisor has broken the tape. 273 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,040 But yes, they're all in line now. It looks as if they'll be open any moment, 274 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,140 just as soon as they've got that tape across again. 275 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,340 Thank you very much. Thank you. 276 00:14:31,020 --> 00:14:33,540 Four times went on number four, please. Thank you very much. 277 00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:37,360 Well, this seems to be having trouble with the transfer supervisor again. 278 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,460 Thank you very much. 279 00:14:42,459 --> 00:14:44,960 Oh! Hey, look, I want to get something on transfer supervisor. 280 00:14:45,340 --> 00:14:46,339 Number five. 281 00:14:46,340 --> 00:14:48,920 Oh, you've sent it this time, sir. Good, I'll have five pounds each way on 282 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:49,859 transfer supervisor. 283 00:14:49,860 --> 00:14:53,860 I haven't seen you here before, though. Probably not, sir. This happens to be my 284 00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:54,619 first day. 285 00:14:54,620 --> 00:14:56,200 Well, let's hope it's your lucky window. 286 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,880 Ten pounds, please. Look, you don't want to stay in there. You can't see the 287 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,900 racing. Come out and enjoy the sunshine, eh? It's against the rules. 288 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,080 Besides, I wouldn't get much work done, would I? Who wants to work? 289 00:15:04,380 --> 00:15:05,860 Well, aren't you here to play the field? 290 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,820 I suppose you could say that. How about 6 .30? There is no 6 .30, sir. The last 291 00:15:11,820 --> 00:15:16,760 race is the 5 .30. Oh, 5 .30. Perhaps you could give me the benefit of your 292 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,340 professional experience. 293 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,600 Now, there we are. There are the runners. Which one? 294 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,800 What about number two, Fifth Symphony? 295 00:15:23,140 --> 00:15:24,140 No. 296 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,040 Number three, Lower Depths. 297 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,120 Shop window. 298 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,820 Shop window. Look, I do have other customers besides you, sir. I suppose 299 00:15:32,820 --> 00:15:35,880 have. Look, I'll have five pounds each way on shop window. 300 00:15:36,859 --> 00:15:41,220 I'll be at the members' exposure at 5 .45 for a drink. Do you want me to do 301 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:42,520 I'll see what I can do. 302 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,240 And that will cost you £20. And £20 coming up. And we'll celebrate that. 303 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,440 5 .45. 304 00:15:48,620 --> 00:15:49,599 Well, I hope you win. 305 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:50,740 OK, fine. Thanks a lot. 306 00:16:05,990 --> 00:16:11,130 The people come all this way just to watch television. 307 00:16:11,590 --> 00:16:14,190 It's more realistic than your own country. I mean, the atmosphere is more 308 00:16:14,190 --> 00:16:20,510 important. My horse is still running and I'm watching the race. Of course. 309 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,200 Come on, Scavenger. Come on, Scavenger. 310 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,260 Come on, 311 00:16:27,020 --> 00:16:28,280 Scavenger. Come on, Scavenger. 312 00:16:29,180 --> 00:16:30,180 Scavenger. 313 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,000 He's going to make it. He is. 314 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,500 Can't you feel me? Can't you? 315 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,180 There he comes. Come on, Scavenger. Come on, that's right. You encourage him. 316 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:44,720 Will he make it? 317 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,120 Oh! 318 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,280 Oh! 319 00:16:50,420 --> 00:16:51,420 Jolly man. 320 00:16:58,380 --> 00:17:00,180 It was nice of you to meet me at the station. 321 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:01,780 Sorry, sir. I had to see a fellow by the horse. 322 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,599 What do you really want me down here for? I'm a bit rusty on my tic -tac. 323 00:17:06,140 --> 00:17:07,140 I'll talk with that one. 324 00:17:07,420 --> 00:17:09,640 Now, I've got some prep going for you. Oh, 325 00:17:10,859 --> 00:17:11,699 hello, Smith. 326 00:17:11,700 --> 00:17:12,679 Hey, Jolly, good luck. 327 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,099 Thank you, sir. I've got my shirt on you. 328 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,760 And most of my wardrobe, I must say. Who's that? 329 00:17:17,790 --> 00:17:20,210 He's Linton Smith. He's the brother of the fellow there who was accused of 330 00:17:20,210 --> 00:17:22,510 a pop shot at a plantation millionaire in South America. 331 00:17:22,770 --> 00:17:25,430 Yes, this is a very odd case. He doesn't appear to have had any motive 332 00:17:25,430 --> 00:17:28,530 whatsoever. The even odder thing is that he was an apprentice jockey at the same 333 00:17:28,530 --> 00:17:29,910 stable as his brother. 334 00:17:30,230 --> 00:17:31,770 Well, how did he get to South America? 335 00:17:32,070 --> 00:17:33,530 Well, that does intrigue you. 336 00:17:34,290 --> 00:17:37,970 Steve, what's your real interest in Meadows, Steve? That horse Sebastian or 337 00:17:37,970 --> 00:17:39,050 attempted killing of this millionaire? 338 00:17:39,310 --> 00:17:41,310 Oh, hello, Mr. Meadows. Sorry, Steve, can't stop. 339 00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:45,820 You know, like the stables, electrified fences around it, photoelectric cells 340 00:17:45,820 --> 00:17:48,740 operating alarm bells, the lot, the whole place is like a, almost like a 341 00:17:48,740 --> 00:17:52,220 fortress. Very wise precautions with all the doping going on these days. 342 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,400 Has it occurred to you that there could be something going on inside? I mean, 343 00:17:56,420 --> 00:17:59,080 someone the police are looking for could be hidden in there. 344 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,800 Are you basing your suspicion on the coincidence of this boy turning up in 345 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,920 America? In the past 12 months, there have been at least 12 unsolved murders 346 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,700 rich men, either important businessmen or political bigwigs. 347 00:18:11,180 --> 00:18:13,400 You mean like Luther Striffel, the West German banker? 348 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,760 Exactly. And not one single one of them has been found. 349 00:18:18,140 --> 00:18:22,840 And in each case, someone has stood to gain either a political rival or a 350 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:23,840 business competitor. 351 00:18:24,140 --> 00:18:28,160 But now that the attempt has failed, well, thank goodness, we've got someone 352 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:29,139 our hands. 353 00:18:29,140 --> 00:18:33,340 If these stables are at security bound, as you say, how do you propose to get in 354 00:18:33,340 --> 00:18:34,340 there? I mean, by yourself? 355 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:35,720 Well, there's one thing I've observed. 356 00:18:35,780 --> 00:18:37,080 They've got a procedure for checking you in. 357 00:18:37,340 --> 00:18:39,060 They don't seem to have one for checking out again. 358 00:18:39,530 --> 00:18:40,710 Are you fond of bran mash? 359 00:18:41,250 --> 00:18:44,210 Ah, come on, we've got to go to the next place. I've got a small interest in it. 360 00:18:44,930 --> 00:18:45,290 Shop 361 00:18:45,290 --> 00:18:57,390 Stuart, 362 00:18:57,650 --> 00:19:01,410 but I think they... OK, yes, and they're off, and already Shop Stuart is well 363 00:19:01,410 --> 00:19:04,130 into the lead.

One hand is down, they're not roulette. 559 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,040 But a small fry. So I set about the bookmakers. 560 00:32:01,790 --> 00:32:07,030 That's where I came unstuck. Because horses aren't just figures to juggle 561 00:32:07,390 --> 00:32:08,450 They're living creatures. 562 00:32:09,050 --> 00:32:10,430 So are the people who handle them. 563 00:32:10,990 --> 00:32:11,990 And who dope them? 564 00:32:13,530 --> 00:32:15,910 Well, you know the old saying on the racecourse, Kathy? 565 00:32:16,470 --> 00:32:19,890 The punter who hasn't got a horse in his family tree stays a punter forever. 566 00:32:21,170 --> 00:32:24,270 Now, the only way to win at this game is to know who's been given orders to 567 00:32:24,270 --> 00:32:25,270 lose. 568 00:32:25,970 --> 00:32:28,410 So, you got into debt with a bookmaker. 569 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,880 That's right, and instead of kicking my teeth in, he asked me to go and work for 570 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:32,739 him. 571 00:32:32,740 --> 00:32:36,880 I reminded him that I was still working for a degree. His words were, stop being 572 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,840 a high -minded idiot, sell out and grow up. 573 00:32:39,460 --> 00:32:40,460 So you sold out? 574 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,640 No, not immediately. I worked for that man for about three years. 575 00:32:45,220 --> 00:32:46,440 Then I opened up my own account. 576 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:51,220 So really one could say you were trapped into bookmaking, but grew to like it 577 00:32:51,220 --> 00:32:52,220 afterwards? 578 00:32:52,340 --> 00:32:53,440 You could say that. 579 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,040 I've been trapped into other things as well since then, but I... 580 00:32:58,510 --> 00:33:00,070 I wouldn't say I enjoy them. 581 00:33:01,170 --> 00:33:03,310 I can't see you doing anything you didn't want to. 582 00:33:04,570 --> 00:33:07,110 Well, there are those occasions when one has no alternative. 583 00:33:07,750 --> 00:33:09,610 It's either that or... Or what? 584 00:33:10,550 --> 00:33:11,550 Take now, for instance. 585 00:33:12,710 --> 00:33:13,710 I have to leave you. 586 00:33:14,750 --> 00:33:15,750 Must you? 587 00:33:15,970 --> 00:33:16,970 I have no alternative. 588 00:33:18,890 --> 00:33:20,450 Waiter. Check, please. 589 00:33:22,030 --> 00:33:24,590 Now, the next bit's rather complicated, so I want you to pay attention. 590 00:33:25,780 --> 00:33:28,260 Now, the spring loading is operated by this trigger here. 591 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,560 Now, as you've just seen, it takes considerable pressure to force the 592 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,740 back. So that'll have to be done before you reach the actual site of operation. 593 00:33:35,380 --> 00:33:38,320 I mean, anyone seeing you trying to get that spring back in the Royal Enclosure 594 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,820 is likely to get a bit suspicious, aren't they? 595 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,880 Well, once you've got the spring back into position, you are now equipped with 596 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,940 one of the deadliest short -range weapons ever invented. 597 00:33:46,300 --> 00:33:49,460 To complete its deadliness, the dart is inserted here. 598 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,120 Now, the poison on the tip of the dart will remain potent for a good four 599 00:33:53,870 --> 00:33:57,190 Now the great advantage of this weapon is that it can be used in a seemingly 600 00:33:57,190 --> 00:33:58,129 innocent way. 601 00:33:58,130 --> 00:34:01,590 As the race is in progress, preferably at the height of excitement, you turn 602 00:34:01,590 --> 00:34:05,350 your binoculars away from the horses and take aim at the subject. 603 00:34:07,090 --> 00:34:12,489 Now with the built -in range finder, which is there, pass it along, accuracy 604 00:34:12,489 --> 00:34:13,889 to 10 yards is guaranteed. 605 00:34:14,770 --> 00:34:17,130 Now take a good look because you can't afford to make mistakes. 606 00:34:18,989 --> 00:34:22,570 Now ejection of the dart is achieved by pressing this button here. 607 00:34:23,500 --> 00:34:26,699 And as you've seen tonight, the mechanism operates without any sound at 608 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,840 Well, here's the man you've all been waiting for.

Steed was in the harness room 624 00:36:09,910 --> 00:36:10,990 last night. He beat up Brown. 625 00:36:11,190 --> 00:36:12,190 Likely he saw everything. 626 00:36:12,470 --> 00:36:13,530 What's that got to do with me? 627 00:36:13,950 --> 00:36:16,410 Are you still pretending you don't know what goes on in your own stables? What 628 00:36:16,410 --> 00:36:19,050 you and Johnson do, I don't want to know. Well, let me remind you. I don't 629 00:36:19,050 --> 00:36:23,370 to hear.
