mint Oh money is for spending not for

locking away who else is coming Robert

mr. and mrs. length forgive me if I

cling to my bit of a minute slice

to wear a model dress to catch the art

he doesn't have to wear anything to

catch yours hi there handsome son of

yours enjoying himself up at Oxford

his latest plan has become a fashionable

barrister specializing in divorce why he

could have much more exciting time at

the criminal bar defending murderers

perhaps he doesn't want to defend

murderers

perhaps he'd rather see them hang I

can't say that I approve of divorce

hey Don I showed her whatever Gilbert

you might think differently if you were

still married well I prefer murder do it

and him so tame and negative as divorce

John we have run faithful to me I

wouldn't divorce him I'd simply crack

his head open

thanks for the warning my lot

how about you Robert would you rather

kill Lucy or divorce her hope I shall

never have to make a choice so do I

really no no gets worse and worse

just so amusing Wow she's never anything

but aggressive and malicious if John

wasn't a business friend of yours I

wouldn't have her in the house I just

don't understand her Robert what is the

matter

anniversary present of Robert the

surprise hated no you went to the will

beloved climb for but I haven't looked

I've always told you I didn't want us to

get too involved I've never loved you

good evening sir I miss some whiskey and

prickly pretty good sir

society's hi man new sir she ordered

dinner for eight o'clock shall I serve

dinner sir no I'll wait just

investigator pretty inspector - scuse

who is mr. Hainsworth

I Detective Inspector Marshall this is

sergeant Barry I favor got some bad news

for you sir there's been an accident and

a lady's been killed letters and papers

in a handbag we believe she's your wife

bump my head getting into my car this

evening naturally we all want you to

come down with us and identify the lady

but why are you here

I detect him what madaky's report hasn't

come through yet sir but the cause of

death appears to be strangulation

strangled there see well should we go

yes yes

dan was walking across the heath with

his dog it started about he went to

investigate found her goodbye

why would she be on the heath unless she

was killed somewhere else and carried

that no sir she was on the heath

mr. Marshall has a handbag sir but apart

from a letter and a couple of receipts

the rest of the contents are missing

then it must have been robbery they left

a diamond wrist watch and a diamond

bracelet that could you give us a list

of the contents of your wife's handbag

no but I daresay I made one now thank

you sir

there is one other thing there was a

slight turn address of the neck here

would you know if by any chance your

wife was wearing a bridge brooch yes

cameo brooch

I noticed it at TIA a large cameo she

often when she was very fond of it thank

you sir

this way of you come in mr. Ainsworth

sir sit down okay I have to ask you a

few questions

I can't believe it I just can't believe

it I know I'm I'm sorry when did you

last see your wife alive um mr.

Ainsworth I'm asking you when did you

last see your wife alive I know it's

sudden but we must have your help in

tracing her movements today yes yes I'm

trying to think it was about teatime we

had tea together

she was then going round to see a friend

of Miss Heywood about five o'clock so

she's had she left the house about

quarter to 4:00 hind I didn't see her

again until so now why do you say or so

she said had you reason to suspect she

was lying

then he'd certainly not but in few of

what happened I'm wondering we can see

miss Hayward later

can you think of anyone who might want a

Harley away and of course not she was

very friendly with everyone can you

think of any reason why she should have

been on the heath after dark

had she friends in that neighborhood I

can't think of any you live on the other

side of the heath when you say the other

side to which side you refer but I

naturally don't know in which direction

my wife was walking but I think I'm safe

in saying that we have many friends who

live close to the heath on any sign what

were you doing between teatime and 9

o'clock mr. Ainsworth after my wife when

Dada where to my study till 6 o'clock

and I got out my car and went round to

see my business manager I'd go but

Morgan I arrived about 6:15 and stayed

until just before 9 o'clock we had

business to discuss

when you got home we were surprised to

find your wife was still Oh naturally

but you were an hour late yourself so

your Butler said yes yes sir I had a

great talk about mr. Morgan I mean

rather forgot the time I suppose my wife

forgot it too your wife was dead mr.

Ainsworth owned every orphan ah

sergeant Mary will take a detail

statement family in the morning

meanwhile we'll take some transport for

you I'll get you home

do you know why she was killed

we have no time to find a motive yet

we'd better make a thorough examination

of the Heath at first light in the

morning don't leave the house without

letting us know where we can get you

with her I know good night good night

hello Gilman Robert here and the police

been a senior please know why I can't

get round here as soon as you can it's

desperately urgent yeah well right well

I'll get a texting come right away

I'll be with you in about ten minutes no

no walk here come in by the garden I'll

leave the door I'll be my study right

wha

goodbye I could see them in the distance

the two of them my first impulse was to

beat man's brains out and I started

often then I start to got hold of myself

I thought perhaps he isn't her lover

perhaps there's some other explanation I

decided to wait till she got home and

Challenger I see what she had to say I

got back into the car I meant go

straight home but I couldn't I drove out

along a bit North Road held forever then

I stopped after a bit i cooled off and

turn around and I drove home I didn't

kill her Gilbert I know that Robert was

a grateful thing well it's it's

unbelievable Carolyn I told the police I

was at your flat from quarter past six

to nine o'clock with you I was taking a

chance on your being there but why

didn't you tell him the truth what you

told me how could I

I was there when it happened they would

have arrested me on suspicion please

back me up I know it's a lot to ask

no it isn't that after all you've done

for me in the last 15 years it's not

that it is I I don't think it's wise

Robert I can't go back to the inspector

now and tell him I was lying no I see

that fortunately I was at home all

evening so it is a possible alibi

all right I agree yes I'll do it but our

stories must agree

well any prints the man may have made

the rains washed out yeah there's

nothing much to show up in this rough

grass anyway

only the imprints of a heeled seems to

come up from the road to the pond then

caught it on the way back mm-hmm it's

hard the way she was talking about

wasn't it

then she got lost in the dark I will

find out I want this area combed

thoroughly and I want that pond dragged

well for the contents of a handbag then

think of his robbery dude no I was

obliged comes he wanted that he's after

anything was probably a letter or diary

something would incriminate him he took

a lot to cover up

[Applause]

surgeons reports come through sir

asphyxia due to manual strangulation

there was salt or anything like that

estimated time of death sim vm7 checks

in her book and watch a prince and a

handbag so except around the lab says

the murderer was wearing gloves they're

sitting on some fragments material

caught in one of her broken fingernails

good week music - I got a fairy

godfather here sir

oh there's a camera bridge yes sir

another nice girl with no men friend

manager quit the police and get a job

with the news of the world I got a list

of the contents of a bag sir from a maid

holy usual things I severed all gold all

valuable turns worse collapse sir

no as doc wood may be near him for a

statement that's with the shock as a

verse a fright

[Music]

have you any news inspector later mr.

Ainsworth isn't allowed to see anyone

sir

doctor's orders we shan't disturb him

carry on

I don't think we've met my name is Gerry

Haywood I'm a great friend of beans oh

really

what is that room missus Ainsworth's

private sitting room sir should have

been sealed who loved the door

the officer who came last night said he

only sealed metals bedroom suite you

good huh take a look at the bedroom

suite and then get statements from the

servants okay mrs. Ames with Naya well I

mean were very old friends there was a

photograph of us taken last year Ken

that's all I was looking for mr.

Ainsworth gave me permission to take try

again was given well the keys always

kept in their little silver box did she

keep a diary no she was much too careful

careful and secretive mm-hmm

she was a very contradictory person so

spontaneous in some ways and so discrete

in others it was a letter you were

looking for wasn't it miss Hayward Oh

from I was afraid she might have kept

something I didn't want mr. Ainsworth to

see my you wanna protect him who was the

man I didn't know there were so many but

if you think Robert found out murder did

because mr. Ainsworth has an alibi miss

Hayward I don't question it should I

mrs. Ainsworth had an appointment with

you at 5 o'clock yesterday it was the

six not five all right six did she turn

him

no but that's nothing unusual she was

apt to change her plans without telling

people though actually in this case I

was rather surprised because because

well she rang me late on Friday night

she sounded frightened she said you must

see me it was urgent and then she hung

up as if she'd been interrupted oh by

her husband was it him she was afraid of

no of course who else would interrupt

her antenna hmm I don't know two hundred

pounds

Lucy you'll never have any money she was

so extravagant she was always in there

that's a receipt didn't have been

extravagant doesn't feel Devine in debt

ask me again later miss hey when I might

be able to tell you shall we go morning

honey

detective unmarried carrying a torch mr.

Ainsworth I got that impression has been

known for a woman to strangle when does

she stop enough

[Music]

thank you

well mr. Ainsworth called on you at your

flat about the time of the murder did

you notice anything unusual about his

appearance or manner no accepted he

appear to be a little valiant possibly

about the business nettles he called to

discuss weight was me if it's not a

change secret oh no we were on the point

of making a very sizable loan to a small

European young indeed we'd gone through

files to commit ourselves then argument

stopped it on advice from the Foreign

Office did notice the bruise on his

forehead bruise come mr. Morgan you

couldn't fail to see that mr. Ainsworth

had no bruise when he called my dad I

understand he did he just had later on

leaving oh no in his car it's very easy

to do if you're preoccupied over it you

mustn't waste your time mr. Ainsworth

he's not the type of man to commit a

crime like this you admire him yes I do

very much indeed mrs. Ainsworth

you can rely on my discussion mr. Morgan

I don't admire her in the manner which

we imply since she's dead I prefer to

speak no I love her more than that I'm

not prepared to say she have a bank

account here yeah we don't handle

private accounts well merchant bankers

who know we make rather large loans to

businesses and governments and so forth

a lot of money she had a very generous

husband yes very generous considering

the money that seems to pass through her

hands I know nothing of mrs. Ames less

private affairs I just got you and mr.

Morgan right oh this

she refuses to stay at home see if I see

mr. Franklin he's always got women up

artists supposed to be knows what goes

on but my poor old names yeah you better

go out from sea shut the top

yeah asking about my rent for you it's a

month I would you know

come in mr. Franklin well the perfect

example of a prosperous city magnet come

in and shut the door it's cold enough in

here as it is the other seals husband

pants it's a terrible thing I'm sorry

I'd offer you some coffee but it's cold

why did my wife come here she

commissioned it boy oh it's a present

for your wedding anniversary I used to

take her to your house on Friday you

liked it no why did you go up to the

heath I don't know she said she was

meeting somebody how did you know she

was here that's my business

could you follow her and I stood down

well you lovers no I don't have anybody

ever really possessed her made it so

fascinating so unobtainable you've taken

away all our natural dignity and charm

you made it look like a cheap trollop I

understood her rubbish well what are you

gonna do with it you're gonna have it

Missy doesn't paid for it the price is

300 pounds 300 for that it's worth more

now Danes worth oh no it won't

[Music]

[Music]

Lucille's brooch the one she was wearing

when she was killed

I'll dig that help a sick man you seem

to be doing all right he's the man

inspector he killed my wife I never

murdered a woman in my life

except on canvas besides you owe me 200

pounds for the portrait you might wanted

to kill her I'd have waited until I got

the money if you didn't kill her how'd

you get the brooch do you mind if I ask

the questions mr. danger at all I know -

I know I know I know but I think it'd

better handle it

let me play the wait really I know thank

you

if you insist I do all right

well where did you get this bridge yeah

just like that I pulled it off it is in

my way what isn't that explicit enough

when about 5:30 on Saturday I didn't

kill him I know the brooch looks

suspicious but she really did leave it

here in fact I tried to flog it after

she'd gone

Oh - Oh Billy as a coffee store round

the corner that's there till 6:15 I'm

surprised he didn't tell you I was sure

he would we can always ask him mr. coach

you were wearing on Saturday the only

one I've got

mmm nice piece of cloth if you left the

coffee store at 6:15

Wade you go from there Hampstead Heath

sheer coincidence I went to the

Spaniards it's quite a distance from

where she was killed you know I got

there at 8 o clock

somebody can probably vouch for that I'm

well-known there how did you go I walked

up West Hill ran by Hampstead Lane I

mean it sort of half circle hurry don't

know if you'da made you half circle to

the south instead into the norm past

near not too busy st. reticular yeah but

not in time I couldn't have got from the

coffee stall to that particular spot in

time to kill her

try it and see don't worry we shall

anyway it seems someone mattered and

Kilda my successor I presume did I name

yes John Langford said why he should

want to kill her

yes I can he's me anyone quiet I'm glad

she's dead

she obsessed with that I couldn't live

without her she had everything and

nothing

she looked passionate she was sexist she

had the face of truth she didn't know

the meaning of the word

she was an illusion nothing one day I

start to miss him your face he's alright

I know whom Lucilla saw on Saturday a

man called Frank King an artist we've

been in contact

unfortunately the inspector turned up in

the middle of it you knew she was seen

this man didn't John I didn't know who

it was but I knew there was someone so

did I but this can shit for me I got it

on Friday just before that dreadful

dinner party my wife is leading a double

life

she's associating with a married man if

this does not stop the writer will take

further steps which will cause trouble

and unhappiness for all concerned

have you shown it in the inspector how

can I gives me a motive but it gives the

rider a motive - Robert you must tell

him the truth I can't but you can't

suspect you anyway you're with Gilbert

Morgan I wasn't what and why

Robert you must tell me the truth what

Evers happened I want to help you but

don't lie to me I won't blame you Robert

I know how she provoked you how cruel

she was to you you must be out of your

mind

I followed her seal I followed her to

Franklin's and then to the heath she was

there with a man but I came away left

her I didn't kill her then tell the

inspector he can't prove you killed her

if you didn't why not he's out for

promotion or justice I don't believe

that at least he's honest and he's no

fool no that's my one hope that he'll

catch the real murderer before he

catches me Thank You Sara

you're a good friend yes a good friend

don't you know how much I love you did

you hate you too seal now I know you

didn't kill you suspect me I'm I'm

beyond making sense out of anything

anymore you must help me stop it

[Music]

[Applause]

but in the middle of disturbing the

peace as usual

I want to talk to you about mrs.

Ainsworth go right ahead

they were just talking about her went

with John your daughter especially Joe

no telling how he was to take her out

how she was to let you hold her head all

right so I did sometimes she was a

wicked little thing but I had daughter

followed every man in this heart married

or not they even had to cheat each other

go on John tell him how you killed

Lucille tell him you won't be able to

keep it a secret much longer Clark he

found out what she was like they all did

every man she I was at home with you all

evening you came up at midnight your

pains of death and drunker than out

nobody needs me but can I ask you maybe

be mad evening mr. violence would you

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

nelle I really did believe I killed his

seal I've been out with Lucille once or

twice just to get away from Miller

trouble was never really loved me that's

what made her so insanely jealous she'd

even written in the normos editor Robert

that's we were crawling about a new

around but it was true what she said you

weren't home on Saturday night yes where

were you then yeah I went to a club to

have a few drinks we were there from

about half-past six until 10 o'clock I

asked the barman he'll remember us us I

was there with a friend

what ship fans named Judy Maddox she's

an actress of sorts we went back to a

flat that's why I couldn't tell nella

where I'd been but you were also in love

with mrs. Ainsworth I've never been a

one-woman man inspector Ellis nagged me

about the liver since the day we were

married I'm even a hitter occasionally

but she did ask for it you must have

seen that she'd get quite hysterical and

I swear she'd do herself in did you ever

give mrs. Ames with any money money I

haven't got any money

oh but she meant by money what was the

name of the club you went to with this

this other girl I don't know florabelle

club I think when you got home on

Saturday night with your wife in she was

in all evening how do you know if you

weren't there but surely you don't think

that nella killed she did we'll have a

hell of a job proving it now what we

well frankly I'm worried nurse wasn't

going to leave us alone he must know

we're lying he nearly caught me out

about that bruise of yours I'm

desperately sorry girl but getting you

into this mess you can get us both now

as accessories after the fact

come what about the bank this is going

to ruin us if only we can hang on for

now sir what I thought of that

now how would it be if I slipped over to

our Paris office for a few days I ought

to go you know in any case if I'm in

Paris I can't be questioned the

inspectors hardly likely to follow me

there it might be safer if I might oh no

he'd smell a rat if you went after all

your suspect I think I'll go at once

I'll get him now and take a bag yes look

at this a rest find anybody well your

time you at the Frontenac

you might let the inspector

it'll really show him Oh will you take

care of Sasha for me

yes of course thank you girl but I won't

forget this good luck robbers why'd you

go there this is the result of a little

fishing expedition upon the heath you

meet the florabelle yet yes thankful to

zero right the bomb about remain the

secretary and I saw that little Julie

bit nothing there what's all this

contents of mrs. Ainsworth handbag sir

how'd you know I led them to a maid she

identified him we found them in their

pond up by the spendings it was the

fifth one we dragged I thought they'd

turn up they won't be any good to

herself I know think of prints on him

dispose of the robbery motive anyways

that I never believed that anyway

osya here's a sample that Grieco cloth

from the manufacturers they distributed

half a million yards of the stuff in the

last six months that's a lot of kurtsyn

what about the Franklin alibi have you

checked that yes the storekeeper

confirms he was there at about 6:15

complete with brooch I covered the whole

distance twice myself he couldn't have

got the heath in time to kill her

that's fine everyone accounted for

except melon - Sarah Heywood know she

was at Bradley's cocktail do she's okay

everyone accounted for so they say

somebody lying I think is Ainsworth wait

a minute

when did mrs. Ainsworth get her money

those receipts in the discs were worth

about three thousand pounds all things

for herself jewelry clothing beauty

treatments all paid for in cash

check found a gold mine sir who is he

wearing a coat similar to this Telly's

well he bought it this morning that deal

did anyone say it was new I got it from

a client of mine humble fella reporter

he owed me a father he came to my office

this morning he says to me mr. Goodman I

owe you a fiver Ivan got a father will

you take the coat instead I'm soft in it

so on topic oh right let's have a look

at it the tailor's names been taken out

didn't that make you suspicious

mister I'm 57 years old everything makes

me suspicious

I'm just the crazy mixed-up old man I

took the coat mrs. angel was a heavy

spender did you finance her Oh a few

drinks had a couple of dinners that sold

and no more than that mister I don't

give I buy is she she had that too come

and get it look but when you came she

rung up no sale she ever tried to get

any money out of you by other means like

what other means like blackmail freezes

I'd have broken her neck you don't

defend her mister she was no good look

do I look like the kind of man would

entertain these woman friends on

Hampstead Heath

gave you the code

[Music]

but Gilbert Morgan lives here this is

the address Goodman gave come on let's

go see this Porter why didn't you come

forward and tell me he gave it this coat

well the papers never said nothing about

an overcoat just some threads or

something called underneath the

fingernails did you think it artie

should suddenly hand it on a coat like

this one no i didn't mr. morgan was

always handing me down his clothes when

he'd had enough of them for the

Salvation Army

give me a suit as well as that gold and

some socks and shoes I sent him up this

morning except the other cup ride you up

into Bernhard Goodman why him

because I owed him money like I told you

all of luck charlie had bets with

Goodman he's got an office over in Baker

Street well it's a very fair man if I am

you don't be take something off you lock

that other cut

he's got off my furniture up and he's

office wait a minute wait a minute take

it up to mr. Morgan sweat it's no good

you going up there he's gone gone where

I don't know

took off in his car about 20 minutes ago

took all his luggage with him too mr.

Morgan

[Music]

why did you kill her I didn't kill her

you were on the heath mr. Morgan we

tested your overcoat we found dust and

goss pollen Hou did I live up there I

often walk on the heath and so do a lot

of other people too

why were you trying to lead the country

I'm trying to help Robert preserve his

alibi which is false isn't it but you

weren't going for a few days mr. Morgan

you were going for good and you were

taking half the bank we get you're a

thief of nothing worse if you weren't

blind about the code why did you try to

get rid of it because I knew who you

were looking for a dark grey overcoat

how how did you know I read in the paper

some threads were found in Lucille's

needle threads yes but how do you know

they came from the coat like that only

the police knew that and the murderer

you met her on the 8th engine

yes I did but I didn't kill her I just

met her I was only with her for a few

minutes what's she blackmailing you

yes you see I well some years ago I

embezzled money from the bank I meant to

pay it back indeed I could have done so

but Lewis Hill discovered this and

threatened to expose me if I didn't

settle her debts for him she ruined my

life for her constant demands and

threats for money why did you tell her

to keep it quiet

I didn't kill her I met her on the heath

yes I met her to give her the money I

suddenly decided that I wouldn't give it

to her I told her I haven't got it she'd

wait she'd have to wait she was

absolutely furious

she again threatened to expose me to

Robert but I am I said I didn't care a

damn what she did

I got beyond caring so I went away and I

left her all I wanted to do is to get

out of the country before she had time

to give me away it was a struggle mr.

Morgan she told your coat her nails were

broken I know she didn't want me to

leave her I pushed her off with my hand

a cat didn't scratch her hand she

scratch it into you no I scratched my

hand on the pin of a brooch she wasn't

wearing abrupt but she was wearing it I

never

painten headed Robert tell me that but I

couldn't tell you that she was wearing

it could I without revealing where I was

with her there is a stain on it but that

doesn't prove a thing

Franklin must have give me back to her

he must have he went back gave her back

the brooch then he hung around waiting

to see who she was meeting anyway later

on the way to the road Ronald river and

strangled her but why did he take the

brooch back again hmm because he'd been

seen with a brooch earlier at the coffee

store if the birch was found on her body

it proved he'd seen her again how did he

get there in time

[Music]

if you took a shortcut across that sorry

where you come on look it is it's him we

got to the Haiti doctor truck that's our

man come on

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

thank goodness none of the others were

charged

I thought the inspector was quite

capable of it wasn't a bad writer well I

better be going

I don't want to be in America not long

after orgies on business and it's best

to go away for time anywhere well

goodbye sir thank you again very much he

will come back Robert yes I coming
