great black savior you roll up to some

deep Bush Place full of homicide and

start asking questions about murder do

you want to be

arrested shouldn't someone at least

return her money shouldn't someone be in

his own village helping his own people

gain independence back home when you Lo

home M and

GOI you've been in England studying for

years or perhaps you become fond of the

climate because if the hook only catches

the fish with his mouth

open or perhaps we both ow it to our

people to do what's right and make them

proud whether that's back home in a

village or somewhere in England

no no you're not going to any Village

you're going to

[Music]

time

[Music]

[Music]

Miss Miss can you uh can you point me to

the family of a Miss Pink hurry or miss

the

verdict lacking witnesses to the demise

of har Carter Publican of the Seven

Stars Ash bottom I am dispensing a

verdict of death by Drowning at

whichwood Watermill whilst under the

influence of strong liquor for the

avoidance of

Doubt an accident next case Tommy Pierce

window cleaner of Ash Barton major

Horton to the

stand well he was lcking around on the

balcony ballate at Ash Manor East Wing

doing

impressions impressions of

whom well Lord Whitfield I believe well

I shook my fist and carried on walking

with me dogs didn't see him

fall calling Dr Thomas to the stand the

impact of said fall resulted in a

complete bsection of C3 and C4

he broke his

neck thank you Dr

Thomas calling Miss Wayne Fleet to the

stand so Tommy Pierce had been employed

to clean the windows at Ash Manor where

were you at this time I was working

downstairs labeling Lord whitfield's

Anglo-Saxon goblets I heard his

Impressions but I didn't see him fall so

who found the body Lavinia Pinkerton to

the stand

she oh dear old pinkton she's probably

looking after Elan not present in which

case out blast with no more witnesses

given we have heard ample evidence of

the deceased Thomas Pierce's history of

delinquent and fool Hardy Behavior I

confidently bring this inquest to a

close with a verdict of accidental death

so you're journalist that explains

it no they rather bad journalist me no I

thought you might have been just your

averagely observant secretary I live in

Witchwood so there's precious little to

challenge my powers of

observation until you

arrived this William the Luke Fitz

William and what brings you to Witchwood

uh Fitz William our sparkling Society

actually because we haven't

any fresh air and exercise

convalescence are you an invalid Mr Fitz

William I find myself in excellent

health I'm pleased to hear

here in Witchwood otherwise I am obliged

to inform the

authorities what if I'm on a secret

mission link twice if you're a

spy cultural Anthropologist bless you

Anthropologist researching a book um

comparing customs and folkl in rural

England and

Nigeria you hear that Pagan practices in

which would Reverend hble

be this isn't the the Middle Ages my

Lord the church is increasingly Forward

Thinking so F

William do you do you do you make a

decent living book

wrting never had to find out oh how's

that my father's Village is very

fortunate 2,000 square miles of arable

land and uh

mards oh and

oil you'll be running yourselves before

you know it well Fitz William I'm in sem

Min just holds them on well

together my father was the village

cobbler but I just pulled myself out by

sport of War time profit

heing my bootstraps

righteous hard work and the grace of

God the chapter I'm working on

now well it concerns popular beliefs

around violent death Falls or

accidents many cultures believe when a

life is cut short its Spirit lives on

restlessly walking the Earth could it's

how

terrifying quite right no one wants the

likes of Harry Carter restlessly walking

around Mr Carter was rather a terror

that drunk violently accosted me on my

own estate didn't he Bridget H and as as

for Tommy Pierce oh impertinent devil

the voice of an angel in my medical

opinion the lad was unbalanced in more

ways than one you didn't mention that

interesting detail at the inquest Dr

thas sad many deaths

recently yes and now miss

Pinkerton

what dead how struck down yesterday in

London what I should have been notified

of any accident it's protocol dead are

you absolutely certain yes Mr Fitz

William how could you possibly you know

this woman struck down by

car it was in standard late edition they

don't deliver it here poor de

Lin another tragic

accident such a shame can't be

possible I'm sorry I still didn't quite

understand what was it that Drew your

attention to the death of a perfect

stranger happen to not to her address

whichwood such a coincidence

such how did they identify

her her name was engraved on her

umbrella I

Believe Miss pingon left no relatives

only algen and

Jones her

cat poor old Pinkerton

not living to see my Whitfield New Town

none of us shall Providence willing

gentlemen no business talk now if IID

had my way Whitfield new town would be

fully erected by now it's a cement

Beacon Lighting our way to a brighter

future if some people weren't Dead Set

against me a brighter future for

whom certainly not the people of Ash

bottom

you sit here in your Mansion drawing up

your elaborate plans instead of building

some decent affordable

homes this is a new

town carrying my name no one gives a fig

for your name steady on vical and you

Doctor what exactly do you do on the

board apart from to to his lordship's

pipe dream I saided the last board

meeting and as your priest it's pure

vanity it won't

do it

won't

father what's wrong stand aside

man he's just

fainted we'll get him home safely

goodbye

well hope was well for Saturday we need

the humble bees for the next doubles you

too Fitz William too much of your

excellent Port my Lord nothing a strong

coffee and an aspirin won't fix

thank you just come

way good night

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

cable re anyone

help it's my mid Amy she's in her

room something Dreadful the door's

locked from the inside

it's a fast door on the

left hit me hit me hit me stay with me H

me stay with me

[Music]

I'm

sorry I was just too late couldn't have

saved her anyway oxalic acid Red Hat

paint her internal organs must be

liquefied poisoned you think someone

might have forced her to drink hat

paint I gave her some cough link to

today she must have mixed up the

bottles a very silly girl had a very

silly

accident what a frightful

morning poor Amy knew her an orphan the

cartis took her in sent into service at

15 but she was still free spirited for

the

work what a tragic life

Witchwood can be

welcoming but it rather depends

depends on what where you came

from I hope the vi is

recovered an infection Dr Thomas has

given him

penicillin take care Mr Fitz

Willam conable

[Music]

[Music]

this Village really is a deep Bush Place

full of homicide exactly were there any

relatives there no there's no relatives

to return the money to the girl just

died right in front of me and everyone's

insisting it's an

accident please do forward letter from W

when it arrives and [ __ ] but now I must

go find out how to drown a

[Music]

man Mur Harry Carter the Publican down

in the next Village at bottom drown

[Music]

William I've stop the

water that's quite a pickle you've got

yourself into

[Music]

now that I've saved your life perhaps

this might be the time

too to ask

you Mr Fitz

William what it is you are doing here

many

nothing I could ask you the same

question why am here because I am always

here live here all my

life where is you are you one of those

men who never know when to leave well

enough

alone you clever women are the

cruelest well there is precious little

reward for our

cleverness so we must get our small

Pleasures where we can

[Music]

so spanking new tweets turning up at a

stranger's inquest spurious book on

folklore about which you know virtually

nothing the only area in which you seem

to show any expertise is Miss

pinkerton's death the subject on which

you are so well informed I can only

conclude that you kill Miss Pink

I know she was killed deliberately and

even if Carter wasn't drank fell

drowned accident all right what about

Amy Gibson her red hat paint Amy Gibbs

and her what Amy Gibbs and red hat paint

Amy Gibbs mck a Coughlin to his falic

acid she most certainly did not you

accused me of killing old women but draw

the line at hat paint only a man

wouldn't that is because no one has used

hat paint since the war and if Amy Gibbs

wanted a different color hat she'd buy a

new one and it would never be red why

not Amy Gibbs had flaming red hair and

red heads don't wear red

hats

you you're

[Music]

right see I never would have occur to a

man right

I'm going to pay Miss Wayne Fleet a

visit get an explanation for this

coughing to H paint

nonsense you

[Music]

coming I was concerned for you after

this morning's tragic events thank you

Mr Fitz

William I thought you might help you

with your research Miss Wayne Fleet is

quite the history buff amate a

curiosity I curate Lord whitfield's

private collection and Library Sugar yes

for

please have no wish to upset you further

Miss wne Fleet could I search Amy's room

I just I may have lost my watch this

morning

her door was locked strange girl

insisted on shutting herself in at

night oh poor elen and Jones he has a

nasty ear infection but he was lenus so

I can't let him go to

strangers ah

Alin oh look there's your watch ah

thanks well spotted Miss way Fleet had

ay been with you long no son Christian

to speak ill of the dead but Amy was a

far from ideal maid Lord Whitfield

dismissed her because her tongue tended

to run away with her I'm afraid still I

doubt she died of insolence yes

[Music]

Dr Thomas said Amy mixed up her bottles

but there's only the one

here even in the dark Amy couldn't mix

up one

bottle if there is a murderer why did

Miss pinkton give you a name j said the

killer was a respectable man with a

point to

make we know he was in London When Miss

Pinkerton was

killed what about the car that killed

her sped away the police that seemed

rather

I was unable to identify the

driver

so who was asked the village on Derby

Day come here sir Nelly Nelly don't be a

Madam hello major

[Music]

[Music]

was that gentleman perfectly well major

Horton he has been a tad peculiar since

his wife died last year though she left

him all her money and was quite frankly

a bit of a

Gorgan even the dogs have had a spring

in their steps since she

died Maris Pinkerton did mention a third

victim how did Mrs Horton die a horrid

gastric bug they

say what if there is a murderer walking

among us and what if he finds out you

aren't who you say you are and you know

what you know and then he comes for you

and there's something I'd like to show

you miss can I escort you

home if you like Luke Fitz William OB be

Aro you could AR this

video

oh I'm sorry to have to ask but where

was Lord Whitfield on Derby Day don't

you worry about Gordon he has the

perfect Alibi me

[Music]

[Music]

the

parit Miss Pinkerton say she found

Tommy's

body

here Tommy's body couldn't fall from

here and land there without considerable

velocity

in other words Tommy was

pushed it wasn't an

accident none of them

were no it was

murder we need to find a

link a connection between the

victims well none of them were Saints

they had

enemies perhaps

though I wouldn't honestly know because

they all three are from Ash bottom down

by the brick works sort of the other

side of the

tracks then I need to go

there find out what point this killer is

trying to make and who was out to the

village on Darby

day

there watch

back

could I uh could I see a

menu then a pint are your finest and

some pork um

scratchings my condolences for Amy

Gibs what's up about my niece I'll thank

you not to come here and stir up

feelings oh what is this diabolical

[Laughter]

stuff NY come here Madam Augustus I say

it's hon it's my moral duty to name this

Pub after me isn't it

Bridget thefield yes our capitalist

Running Dog Lord of The

Manor I hear it all driving his schemes

and plans do you know what I don't hear

any work in Ash bom he'll have his shiny

new town and we'll have sweet fa like

always l w was a respectable man surely

you look

respectable no more respectable than

anyone else

buttom he's one of us well he used to be

B on raised on this street mhm he paid

for his period for his wartime Propet

earing few backhanders in the right

people's pockets he climbed the greasy

Pole to respectability and pulled the

ladder up behind him quicker than he

could yell

Bridget on your turn yes let's hear it I

can do talk to

Thomas no not

him nothing fun funny about Dr Thomas

he's only got time for his private

patients nothing but linkas for us

linkas what kind of linkas cheat Cody

it's the only medicine we ever get from

him even

children he put Tommy on it lab was

leaning like the Tower of Pizza just

another brown bottle for Harry to drown

his woes in until he drank enough to

knock himself out Amy was coughing like

a consumptive before he saw her what did

he give her

Codine

Linkus bet they won't look into Amy's

death any more than they did

tomy's Welcome to Witchwood

[Music]

[Music]

keep taking the penicillin it'll mop up

the last of the infection in your hand

Dr

Thomas I wonder if you might check me

over Reverend hubby not still un well I

hope don't let that one flee shoot he

charges extra for the good stuff father

what Dr Thomas is only all that

flattering and foring doesn't fool me

greasing his wheels there's nothing that

young man won't do to get what he

wants I was hoping to being shaped for

tennis up at the

Manor an old rugby injury playing up

probably the weather okay well walk to

the window and back

how's the book going did I mention I'm

writing a book myself oh really on what

topic leg seems

fine yes a scientific guide to improving

Society

fascinating

how judicious

elimination of who oh you know the sort

people

like Carter

the wife beating drunk no loss there

didn't Tommy's death save us all from

his inevitable future Life Of Crime

interesting thought no I'm not sure your

patients would agree how would they

know it's one thing you Africans have

right the power of life and death lies

solely in the hands of Chief Bongo

Bongo it's not that simple we have laws

laws of course but now you take me for a

mass

murderer would a murderer be so Frank

I'm merely making a scientific point a

point yesterday you said Amy mixed up

her bottles unpleasant accident Miss wng

Fleet only found the one I kept the

other for

testing you see there's always a

scientific explanation some would call

that tampering with evidence Dr Thomas

I'm a doctor criminology is my hobby I

always follow protocol protocol

C conduct yourself properly in the

proper manner

sir don't which wasn't followed after

Miss pinkerton's

death where were you on dery day three

villages away attending a

birth here we

are CS Hammer's inferiority in crime

translated from the German and

race

hygiene scientific program would weed

out the

degenerates you keep these in

stock aren't they on

prescription just the Codine link us

cures most common ills One Step Up from

a placebo really why I want

some K

do you speak

Eber and

ethic some eor I've been trying to

ascertain your precise tribe since the

inquest before extending a proper

greeting glad I back the right horse let

going to a proper pup cannot believe he

put the rugly pit I play upon with these

very hands my

son your Headmaster was a very dear

friend he was a huge influence upon me

yes I can hear

that did you know Miss Pinkerton sir

pinky of course we used to pour over the

raising post together every week love

the GG's the

pinky how was it Derby ah Juju

too winged feet I said the

vicer back the

nag we were there humble be and I

okay Raise Your Glass Here's To my dear

wife the loss must have affected you

deeply well she was getting so much

better then sudden relapse wasn't

herself she told Amy if she was being

poisoned Amy guess was from me too a

nasty business

by the way

major who's the doctor that treated your

wife why that young Snapper Dr

Thomas H well that was a breeze last

ball was definitely out was halfway to

chipping Norton so um what did you

say what did you say I don't think so

chalk flew didn't it

Gordon yeah like a

[Music]

bird like got dead

bird Dr Thomas read to Mrs Horton she

was his first victim the one that Miss

pinkton wasn't sure of she told people

she was being poisoned and Amy was her

maid she must have known too much so he

killed her too Dr Thomas had opportunity

and means to kill Amy gave Carter and

Tommy coding link like Amy and he was

out of the village on Darby day where is

the good

doctor with a patient or murdering

one the thing

is Mrs Horton wasn't from Ash

bottom which means the next victim could

could be

anyone oh come on that's clearly my

shot don't look at me like that Miss

Conway H you PR why are you marrying

that man

It Go for do you know what a secretary

ears of course you

don't well

pennies compared to Lady Whitfield the

very different duties

really doubt Gordon will even kiss me

good night after a

year why do you care who be

whiteall because it's not what you

deserve this is not

what

love have you tried

it loving until it

hurts only to be jilted for some

millionaire

Widow a broken

engagement is the perfect cure for

dangerously romantic

[Music]

TSH I simply want to be safe not just

from being

poor from feelings

[Music]

fit William you're up next with the

doctor knees better then fits

William yes thank

you only I cannot stop thinking about

your theory doctor not a

Theory

science py Carter

Amy so who's next for judicious

elimination degenerans was that the word

you

used

humblebee listen these um these Pagan

rights that Fitz William and my Bridget

are busy on covering I want them stopped

so who's next

Doctor one of the lower races

me oh script instruct us to rebuke those

who persist in sin he who casts the

first stone Mrs humblebee as witch

Wood's leading citizen

Rose God has more to worry about it so

who's it going to be doctor in whichwood

then

arur in which

one doctor

no

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

perhaps you might happen to know what

time Scotland Yard closes you see I have

to report

murder she was talking of murder murders

in her Village she said he kill again

and now she's dead I live in Witchwood

so this precious little to challenge my

powers of observation until you arrived

think you'll find you in the wrong place

sir his lordship the other guests will

be inside the house well we're filled

this is a new town carrying my name

bridet why are you marrying that man he

keep the in stock just a Codine link us

why want some

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

still

out my deepest condolences Miss Rose Mrs

humble be

I wondered if we might

speak why don't you accompany us we're

meeting Dr Thomas at the surgery to

discuss the

autopsy you see since coming to

Witchwood I've been struck by the number

of

accidents that Dr Thomas attended every

victim victim that gu you very fun

Thomas

Rose and he he has feelings for you too

but your father never would have allowed

the marriage and if he knew of the

doctor's scientific

interests where did you find us he keeps

them here not on display and who planted

the idea of murder in your mind Mr Fitz

William Miss

Pinkerton you met

linia before she

died before she was murdered

[Music]

Mrs humbleby have you considered your

husband's medication may have been

tampered with tampered with by who why

should we believe a single word you say

Rose Fitz William what on Earth is going

on here simply discussing the likelihood

of you having poisoned my father

poison with what penicillin it couldn't

have been the medication Mr Fitz Willam

my husband's distrust of Dr Thomas men

he never took the

penicillin that's not all the things he

said none of them

true are

they Rose

Stop are they here

then where where are they

rose rose I don't think of you

[Music]

like this is your research is it worming

your way into respectable women's homes

and perverting their mind

just because it wasn't the penicillin

doesn't mean it wasn't

murder if Lavinia felt something was a

miss you must keep

[Music]

looking nothing nothing suspicious but

obvious obviously we're taking the Vicor

sad death very seriously nothing

suspicious one minute he was playing

tennis the next he was frothing at the

mouth

poisoned I'm here to assure you

everything is being properly dealt with

what about the rest the rest of what of

us Harry Carter Tommy Pierce or were

they properly dealt with ruled as

accidents by the coroner the Law's the

law Rivers old chat and why no autopsy

for our Amy a waste of public funds the

cause of death was plain unless you want

to pay plain is that when one of us dies

it's an accident but when it's one of

you there's a proper investigation

that's how you do the law around here

doctor old chat I resent your

insinuation Rivers I'll be speaking of

Lord Whitfield I'm not insinuating okay

I'm stating facts and you can tell Lord

Whitfield what you like tell him to open

up his money bags and fix up Ash bottom

for starters cuz his tenants are living

in a slum yeah yeah I spilled blood for

this country and that makes me any man's

equal this place rot to the Core

I you an apology Miss

comway I express opinions that however

strong here might fill them

quite perhaps if we can find our strong

feelings to exposing the murderer of

course

Gordon and I

are we're throwing a party this

afternoon throwing a

party an engagement

party so we better

hurry it wasn't the

medication but who else would kill

Reverend

humblebee well let's start at the

beginning Miss Pinkerton said the

murderer was respectable man of the

point to make guess but who respects the

doctor not the humble Bees No in Ash

Bon Dr Thomas could be as disreputable

as Blue Beard he'd still be a

respectable man in

Witchwood it's becoming quite clear to

me how power works

here and I don't have

it seek dead

six are you feeling all

[Music]

right you don't have to say

anything but Dr Freud is ready for you

now should you care to

[Music]

explain ever since I came to England I

keep having these

dreams that I'm lost in this

forest and I'm losing

something so this

aanga is part of you it's press off my

right

hand it was given to me when I came of

age there your potential to

succeed the power to direct your own

fate but it's part of something greater

than you

alone fa to honor it and you're lost to

yourself to your

people lost a

home should I even be here working for

whiteall leaving others to work for

Independence back

home seems you are a little lost in the

forest LC beo Fitz William

welcome to

mywoods I've been here a while maybe not

happy ever after but content I thought

and now

I now I don't know anymore

you see what happens when you speak

up don't try and tell me that that fell

off a tree and bashed out his

brains what another

[Music]

accident good sh all

right hold out with tell me

keep it under his hat no F I don't think

he can do that

sir I think you'll find help do as his

to especially if it's me that's doing

the

tailing my path's always been smoothed

by

Providence right lots to do before the

party you're coming

fit half of London will be there won't

they Bridget the right

half Miss Pink him was

right that idiot Constable ruled out

murder before he'd even seen Rivers's

body humble

be now

Rivers barely find chaps both of them

speaking their minds speaking up for

others and you say pinky set you on the

trail you've been investigating all

along it became clear to me that these

deaths were

murders the pinky

I have a theory about

Lydia she wasn't entirely sure but you

are I see

still you have no

proof the car that hit and killed Miss

Pinkerton got away so fast I never even

caught a

glimpse seems half the village was out

of town on Derby Day

the car belongs to someone in

Witchwood if I knew the

registration leave it with me still know

a few old timers at Scotland

Yard vote me a favor

[Music]

these Dreadful

rumors a party ill advised perhaps so

unlike Lord Whitfield his religion his

sense of what's right it's what first

struck me about him all those years ago

[Music]

Miss way Fleet you say you knew Lord

Whitfield as a boy as a young man yes

before the war before the big house and

the rollsroyce all of

it I should I should take this in

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

B

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

more bubbles over here some D Perry

[Music]

we are

[Music]

Gordon likes to collect nice

things not really his nice things though

are they still seems to care more for

them than he did his own chauffeur

look I've been thinking about what Mrs

Pierce said see what comes from speaking

out Rivers reben H will be at dinner

Tommy all of them spoke out against

respectable men are you suggesting that

Gordon why do you think he might what I

think is that Gordon is as incapable of

physically hurting another human being

as I am and that calling him a murderer

under his own roof

is it's

[Music]

unforgivable um I didn't offer

sympathies for Rivers seemed a good man

he was you said he was murdered for

speaking out think I would end up the

same way talk costs lives power ful men

decide women like us

survive back home if some chief judge or

official abuses power women arrived in

gangs and they had ways to set him right

there's a few men in Witchwood who could

do with that kind of lesson

[Music]

[Music]

Rose see I'm wearing the scarf you gave

me because

I Rose I insist you let me explain Mr

Fitz William we've saved you a seat do

sit

do you mind doctor you're rather

spoiling The

View I heard about rivers coming so soon

after father it's

terrifying you know Rivers didn't see

eye to eye with the doctor

either Rose about what happened I may

have misjudged you earlier Mr Fitz

William your suspicions

father always said the doctor wasn't fit

to serve on the new town board said he

was capable of doing anything to get

what he wants perhaps with the doctor

occupied here now is the chance to find

out

[Music]

what drct Thomas he never truly deserved

[Music]

you whena Rhythm start to play

dance with me make me

S like the lazy ocean hugs the shore

hold me close s

more like a flower bending in the breeze

Bend with me sway with

E when we dance you have a way with me

stay with me swear with me

[Music]

[Music]

I have a confession to make

[Music]

it's okay I don't think anyone's

there I need to

confess I can't marry Gordon

[Music]

[Music]

was that

him what did you

find it's the Whitfield New Town account

but someone's forged Gordon's

signature these are all my pay.

Thomas this a small

fortune that's

embezzlement if Mrs Horton R humble

beard course we should go back and tell

him what we

know and face

it all

[Music]

so the doctor had been stealing money

from the new town account perhaps the

victims found out Mrs Horton and the

vica might have even

Amy but the others just doesn't seem

Bridgette Bridget come

here what's

that where was it Rivers's

blood heel of a shoe not many people do

you know

listen right foot I think the murderer

has a point to make you're sensible

respectable respectable person

person a respectable person has

Pinkerton never said a man a

woman a woman

Sho you don't

mean the murderer no women don't go like

that over and over and

over it's right here Bridget right where

River started you saying it's not

connected women lose gloves heels

earrings every time you leave the house

it's hardly proof of the ability to

exterminate half a dozen Souls Bridget a

respectable

woman who

drives who can drive

Bridget me

obviously yes Miss Wayne Fleet

no no and she can't afford a

car Mrs

humblebee Rose

what possible motive could any of them

have

[Music]

I'm tired perhaps where did you meet

your husband Mrs

humblebee in

India he was stationed there before

independence of course an army

chaplain his commanding officers were

dead set against our marriage but we

were in love

and so to England the

Witchwood major Horton helped you both

settle I believe and Mrs hordon must

have been a good friend of your husbands

too the board must thrown them together

a great

deal shared

[Music]

interests do you drive Mrs

humblebee did you go with your husband's

the Derby or come

Rose I'm cool suddenly

[Music]

man you are I made

myself me and

God I put my faith in Providence not not

people yeah I I I know what they say

meeting not what happened to

him what did happen to him sir just as

the Patriarchs prospered the enemies

smitten he was struck down by Divine

wrath tell me Fitz do you recall how the

Bears devoured the children who mocked

the Prophet Elijah

the children yes I recall Elisha was a

great

man the Lord wouldn't suffer anyone to

mock him and

live oh no oh mock you a Tommy

Pierce in my own

home here

after Carter abused me and died when Mrs

hon

vile woman thwarted me at the board I

couldn't be

sure but after

Tommy and then Amy sassing me

back that was no denying

it I've Done Right By My Creator and my

creator has done right by

me simply put my enemies are always

exterminated like re humblebee exactly

you heard how he insulted me he refused

to see I stand for righteousness and God

stands with me so you could say you know

who's going to die out of M

drop

warning anyone who crosses me

even someone I'm fond of like

[Music]

Bridget

Oh What a fine for my collection well

done Miss Wayne

fleed now

there is a woman

I can truly

respect capable and

Lady

rare you know it's hard to imagine now

but she was she was handsome in her day

independent clever she was off to

Cambridge you

know I do sometimes wonder

what what she uh thinks of me now since

we um

her admiration is very clear the

Lord just one last thing how exactly is

this Divine Justice

accomplished

well that's up to

God isn't

[Music]

it Bridget what was that

exterminated and all that about Miss

Wayne Fleet what does he mean perhaps if

I ask her to

explain he tried to frame You Bridget he

put those shoes in the boot of the car

and now he's ready to kill you kill

Gordon it just doesn't seem heed every

single death was divine Justice for

insulting him a respectable person a

point to make Ro was in London on Arby

day I have to get you out of

[Music]

here the is buul is never going to

denounce the most powerful man in

Witchwood he wants to arrest me Scotland

Yard like Miss pinkton said

catch the London Express might have

believ Miss Pinkerton but an African

man invading respectable

homes it takes power to destroy power

Bridget and we have

none I've got an

idea I know what to

do and I know who can do it

right leave this to

me

ladies we need your help

[Music]

thought I made myself clear Fitz

William yes my

Lord just uh just one more thing a

religious matter

[Music]

actually I wanted to

know Elisha and the bear which which

book is that

Kings and it it was two bears two

two and how many boys did they devour

42 but I I'm no

profit Tommy Pearson's death was enough

for me so sorry sir I didn't quite catch

that I said Tommy's death satisfied

me but then there was Rivers the upstart

and

Carter that won Amy with the red

hair you murdered our Amy

stop it stop it stop this I will what

what kill us you murdering

sod de spol you're right on time arrest

this man he's confessed to six murders

before these Witnesses I wouldn't

release him if I were you

what

[Music]

right he's so isdal

Maniac did you put these mad women up to

this a Rolls-Royce knocked down Miss

livinia Pinkerton on Darby day call

Scotland Yard ask him for the

registration do

[Music]

it I hope you don't

mind if I ask you a rather personal

question I'll answer as honestly as I

can I I've been wondering your

friendship with

Gordon who ended it and

why I had a

canary he asked me if I loved it more

than

him

I he rung its

neck but it was the look on his face

[Music]

I

see f a s 9

22 isn't

that um that that's that's the r of my

roles apparently a witness reported it

at the scene no one followed it up

maon Fitz so it was him he did it the

hold on hold on hold on did you know all

along that Gordon was the

murderer i' had suspected it but he's a

lord who would believe

me with the rich and mighty all we have

is patience linia was the only one who

knew and see where that got

her a letter from Miss Conway sir

but she didn't write

this where is

it your wa for where's a

knife um uh Miss Wayne fley took it home

for a clean

up

yeah really sang

suong what if the police don't arrest

him he'll come for you next he's quite

mad broad more and straight jacket mad

no

oh Al and Zia really is quite

gruesome do they not do penicillin for

cats

[Music]

last with

me that should do

it Lord Whitfield you said Miss Wayne

fleet was a woman you can truly respect

you wonder what she thought of you since

you since you what

go on Gordon tell him what you did you

see Gordon was employed by Miss Wayne

fleet's father here at the Manor

a walk before supper to wake us up

[Music]

[Music]

oppressively warm isn't

[Music]

it white

woman who nobody loves what's that dear

sleepy papang has that effect on some

people I'm not a cliche you know a woman

scorned jealous of you and Gordon I was

headed for

Cambridge a scholarship I didn't tell my

family all I wanted was

Independence she was a

friend and she trusted

me so she told me her

secret she'd run away to

Cambridge but

my father said if I didn't tell him

where she'd gone he was going to sack us

all he was going to throw us off the

estate

so I had no

choice I told him I was unpacking my

books when my father came for

me Gordon had betrayed me you see

securing himself a step up the

ladder but for

me that was the end of

it they just they they locked her up

like a prisoner a

cage broke a little

heart crushed

it for just like she crushed

that that little

bird with her

hands Gordon Whitfield boot Maker's son

made his fortune bought Ash Mana my

home he took my beautiful

life turned me into a pathetic

nothing I never showed my

feelings well it's how we girls were

raised isn't it

Bridget it's in our

breeding show nothing no matter what but

I needed him to suffer for

it and that's when it came to me I'd

make him the

murderer kill anyone who crossed him so

that he would be the one

accused

humiliated locked up he'd be punished

for my

crimes

extraordinary

easy Miss Wayne Fleet Fitz she has

Bridget

so here we

are Gordon will be joining us

[Music]

soon nothing all my life fire was

nothing P

it fet

oh I see I suppose this is where you

tell me how you always knew it was me

for your vanity or mine but I didn't I

thought it was L Whitfield just like you

wanted I knew Gordon would tell everyone

the deaths were Providence smoothing his

path exterminated

I but I had to kill the Via twice for

you to

notice the iodine on the dressing

infected from the

cat you poison Riv humble bees drink at

tennis didn't you what

with strick

name rat poison everyone knew he and

Whitfield had been at loggerheads over

the new town it's pure vanity you were

in the library at Ash Manor when you saw

Tommy ridiculing Lord Whitfield on the

balcony you targeted those who had

slighted Lord Whitfield

you saw Carter drunk at the sloes

channel then you opened the levers swept

him away in the

current I didn't push him it was luck

the scratches around the

keyhole you open Amy store from the

outside and swap the

bottles detective Noel so educational Dr

Thomas Hemlock I presume

you grow it in your

garden I recall its distinctive

smell it was you in the surgery planting

evidence that would give cause for Lord

Whitfield to seek revenge just a little

something to steer you in the right

direction but no one's

infallible not even you like your mishap

killing Rivers after his Outburst at the

inquest you were

interrupted leaving a broken shoe here

here which I covered very

creatively planting it in Lord

wickfield's

car Lydia Horton stricking

again no

arnik she said the tea Gordon had sent

her tasted odd but did anyone

listen Derby Day He follow Miss

Pinkerton to

London the driver didn't kill Miss

Pinkerton

you pushed

her but the driver didn't stop why would

he just an old woman so you gave the

police or whitford's registration number

and disappeared into the crowd but the

police disregarded the testimony of a

woman and today he took the knife

covered in Lord whitford's fingerprints

as if it was sent from Bridget to lead

him to her

murder which of course would have

removed all doubt none of which would

have been necessary if anyone notice

your

Clues perhaps you're just too

clever I Had My

Moments the entire Village at my Mercy

never knowing where I'd strike next

me who had all treated as if I had

forever been this D pointless Old

Maid it is ging that not a single one of

them pointed the finger at

Gordon perhaps no one listens to old

women perhaps we're invisible not to

me just

unheard

unseen a respectable person

disrespected in a place where murder is

easy

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

I wish you all the best my

clever

Bridget capable and a

lady too good for me

[Music]

probably it's very gentleman of you

Gordon

murderer

me I don't even HT

[Music]

dangerously emotional romantic

Taj did you give Mrs Pierce Miss

pinkerton's Derby

money good they'll know what best to do

with it trash

bottom so what will you do Mr oako

I should be in

Nigeria for

Independence they must miss

you I know I

will if I stayed here you'd be

lost in the

woods and You

Bridget what will you

do how are you going frankly

I don't give a

damn maybe I'll travel maybe I'll turn

detective it's 1954 a woman can do

whatever she

likes that's my theory anyway and I

intend to test

it

thoroughly do watch out for water wheels

Fitz and

forests old ladies on trains telling

tall stories

[Music]

should I encounter any of

those I'll be in

touch PR Conway

[Music]
