Oh! Oh God!

Oh God! Oh God!

Oh!

Hurt yourself? - I'm alright, guv'nor.

Now, where's that candle?

Here, have some of this. - Huh?

Let me have it!

Thank you very much, sir.

That's enough! - Hey!

Blimey.

Sort of kicked down those stairs, guv'nor.

What about that? Up there?

Please, let me go, guv'nor. I ain't done anything.

What were you doing up there then?

Oh!

I'm coming here for shut-me-down, see you...

must have somewhere to sleep, mustn't I?

I don’t got no money, see?

Lost--lost my ship. Honest.

I ain't never murdered him, guv'nor,

no! I ain't that sort.

Sure me Bob I ain't.

We'll see that.

Come on up. - What did you say?

Me going up them stairs?

No blooming fear!

I'm not going up them blooming stairs again, guv'nor.

Not for you nor nobody else, no!

Oh. Yes, you are. Come on.

Here, hey guv'nor,

what's the game that you're playing at?

I am going to have a look at that body,

then I 'll decide.

Well, I can tell you right now guv'nor...

- ...get a copper - Go on!

Oh, coo.... Here!

- Guv'nor I've got an idea! - Well?

- You go first. - Come on!

Ooo. Ooo.

What are you doing down there?

Huh?

I was looking for you, guv'nor.

Well, where am I?

- Well, go. - Come on!

Oh, dynamite up there.

Hear, I feel awful, guv'nor.

I'm coming for queasy.

(HEAVES)

Wh- wh- wh- who done him in, guv'nor?

Hit on the head I should think, coming out of that door.

Who hit him? That's what I can't make out.

Who hit him?

Huh...

Who, who-- here gov'nor...

Wait! Wait! Hoo! Wait

Uh! Uh!

Huh!!

Quite sure you don't know anything about that?

What me?

Go on! If I had doned it, I'd have knowned it, wouldn't I?

Don't suppose one forgets a murder, like posting of a letter.

Have another think. - Ha?

Yah, don't worry if I do.

Oh, Lord!

Now what have you got in your pockets?

- Holes. - What else?

Go on!

There you are, handkerchief.

Used that to gag him with, heh!

And this string,

Oh yes, stabbed him with that!

Sausage.

That's what I hit him on the head with.

Now, don't mind about that.

I said, never mind about that!

Oh, sorry!

Yours?

- Yes. - Jolly little kid.

Yes.

She was.

Ha!

Here's something you've overlooked, gov'nor.

Half a fag!

When the Lord Rothschild,

he smokes one-half, I smokes the other, see.

What about your pockets, eh?

Two eyed, guv'nor, sorry I ain't so nosey-parker as you.

Here.

Take the candle.

Eh! Ooo!

Hey. Oh! - Shhh! -Ha?

Ha-uh!

Oi!

Oi!

Was you movin' Charlie?

Here, let's take a look at your pockets.

Hello!

What the hell he is doing with bracelets?

A gun!

I wonder it it's loaded.

Blimey, the trigger is stiff!

Here!

Got anything else about you, mate?

Have you found anything out, guv'nor? - No.

No, only this candle.

Hello... where did these come from?

Heh? Hh!

I found 'em... on-on the body, guv'nor.

What are they?

Have you never seen a pair of handcuffs before?

No, sir.

Never worn them. I was brought up baptist.

Well, we better take a look at this chap.

- Oi! - Hah?

Thank you.

It always pays an innocent man to play it straight, you know.

Go on! Who says I'm an innocent man? Oh, no!

Who says that I have been playing straight?

Another thing, guv'nor, cap it, see, cap it.

This is a bobby's job, this is.

Making it bad, that's all you're doing. Making it bad.

Come on, I'm worried. Eh!

Ooo!

Eh, it's all right, guv'nor, I've got him.

I've got the pig that's really involved!

I've got him, guv'nor.

Did you hit her?

- That..? - Take that.

Oh look at that, lapping it up!

Let me go! - Huh?

Let me go! Where is my father? - What?

-Dad! - What?

Dad!

Dad!

What have you done with my father?

What?

Now, what's the trouble?

We'll try and do something for you, if you tell us.

Now here, I'm sure to tell you, after having been knocked out and all that!

Oh, my mistake, miss.

Who are you two?

Well, my name's Fordryce and his is ah--

Well, what is your name?

- Ben. - Ben, what?

Well, if it wasn't for you, guv'nor, it'd be Ben Bolt.

You didn't half hurt me when you hit me just now,

- Oh... - I feel quite dizzy.

Oh, that-that wasn't me miss,

that was the brandy he give ya,

to bring you around, see?

Oh!

Thanks.

Now what's all this about your father?

Will someone look on the roof and see if they can see anybody?

Yes. Go on, Ben, up you go!

What, me?

God love a duck! It's always me!

You see, Dad and me live next door at number 15.

And this evening, Dad went up to the top room,

and a few minutes later a telegram came for him.

So I took it up and found the door locked.

And when I banged on it, he didn't answer.

I.ve been scared ever since.

Can you see anything? - Yes.

- What? - What? - Houses.

Silly idiot!

Well, go on.

Oh, I'm alright, thanks. Alright.

Well ...

anyway, I looked all over the place

for a key that'd open the door.

And when I would one, the room was empty.

Yes?

I couldn't make it out.

Then, I saw the window was open and look:

this was on the ledge outside.

I thought perhaps Dad had dropped it

So I got out of the window on to the roof

and crawled across the pitched roof

and I guess after the skylight--

Oh, you are always falling over Ben! - Aye!

Have you hurt yourself? -What me? Naaoh!

What happened to me in the war, guv'nor,

blown up by a mine and come down singing!

Well, that telegram that came to your father...

Oh! I forgot!

Have traced Suffolk necklace to Sheldrake.

Expect him to make getaway tonight. --Watch number 17.

-- Will arrive later. Barton.

A word... that name? I can't make it out.

Do you know who Barton is?

- Oh! I dropped that! - What, this here?

What does it mean, guv'nor?

Means that at half past twelve, something's going to happen

... at number 17.

Well, that would be a nice change, won't it?

And you had better get home before anything--

- No, I'm not going to. - You want me to help you?

Oh, it's a great help he is, Miss,

I know 'cause he helped me for the last hour.

When I comes rushing down these apples and pears:

all chicken and aspidistra!

Blimey if he don't smother me around and march me up here again!

Can't do enough to help you, he can't.

Come on, we must get a move on. It's nearly half-past now!

Well, what can happen then?

Ben is going to flick!

Twelve o'clock!

Half past, you fool!

They're still in! It'll call the tenants! -Shh!

Maybe it's the police.

Blimey, if it is, I-I'd better put this back!

What do you mean? Back where?

On the corpse.

Corpse?

The corpse?!

My father!

Oh, that's pulled it, the gun ain't gone, miss.

It's all right, I tell ya. It's all--

Gone! He's gone!

The agent said we might see over the house.

Oh, yes! Yes!

I tried to realize that...

But ... ah...

well...

Well, I thought perhaps...

you wouldn't mind.

May I come in too, ah... Uncle?

Hadn't we better see upstairs first, uncle?

Yes.

Perhaps it would be better.

Oh. by the way, ah,

We don't know your name, do we?

Surely the agent told you.

Oh yes,

but I'm afraid I've forgotten it.

You don't by any chance happen to have forgotten the agent's name as well, do you?

Hah! Extraordiary!

To tell you the absolute truth, I'm afraid I have.

Well, now, as you have seen only the staircase,

perhaps you would like to look at some of the rooms?

Hmm!

Who's that man?

If you don't mind, I think that's rather an unusual question

for a house hunter, isn't it?

I beg your pardon.

Well, not at all,

if you want to know, that's my servant, Ben.

Yes.

And you're a little friend of ours, ain't ya?

This isn't your house yet, you know.

But what if we insist on going upstairs?

- Insist? - That's what he said, insists.

Hm-mmm.

None of your sors !

- Sors ? - Yes, that's what I said,

S-O-R-S. Sors.

Leave that to me, Ben!

Go on! Let him come up and say one stool, guv'nor.

Now then, you nosey parkers,

Come have a look. See! Look 'till you are boss-eyed.

Ha! What an amusing man!

Oh yes, a regular George Robey [comedian], ain't I?

Come on,up you come!

Damned fools!

It's all right, guv'nor,

they won't find no blooming body up here!

This way Marmaduke!

Nothing unusual here, uncle.

No... nephew!

No skeletons, no coffins, ducky?

Well, I suppose you'll take the blinkey house,

or you can leave it for me.

I ain't making no offers,

I'll open it, see,

Just a moment, not quite so fast!

Fast? Fast am I?

Oh yes, I'm a little flash and lightning, ain't I?

I’ve been trying to make my way out of this house for an hour

and I haven't moved an inch!

Oh, I'm a regular derby winner, I am!

Hey! Get out of it! See?

Oh, God!

Where on earth did you get that gun?

Huh?

Well, I got it off the corpse, guv'nor.

And if anybody tries to stop me, then there's goint to be more corpses.

Oh, blimey that!

You fool, get back!

Huh?

What's happened? What have you done with that?

Blame me? That's right, guv'nor, blame me!

Well, I does everything, don't I?

You don't have to do nothing in this here house,

just stand still and things happen.

Everything's loopy here!

People coming here and being murdered!

And I don't even get no apology!

Footsteps without no feet!

I swear, I'm sick to death of the lot of ya.

Straight, when I open it, see?

Put that down!

Blimey, he's got a gun!

Hey, here, let me go! Keep off I say, keep off!

Oh, poor guv'nor, I didn't mean to do it to you, I didn't!

I did not know it was loaded.

Cold, perhaps... Eh!

Go on, you get in there.

C'mon, you too.!

It's all right, thanks. I can manage.

Thanks.

I'm afraid you are wasting your time.

You see, she can neither hear, nor speak

Do you mind?

Mm?

Hands up!

Oh!

Um, will you search this gentleman?

I'll take it you have no objection.

I don't mind.

One and nine.

Blimey, he's on the dole!

All right! Now for you, Ben.

Here, here. Who gave you permission to call me Ben?

- Sorry I don't know your other name. - Lloyd George.

- I like you Ben , you make me laugh. - I'll remember that, guv'nor.

Give you a job in the cabinet, next election.

What's that going to be?

Give him a bit in the back department.

Sausage?

Yeah! Here, here, here! Of Course! What do you think it is?

Christmas cracker?

Go on!

Back you go in the larder, you!

And now for the yourg lady.

Keep your hands to your self!

If my dad were here, you wouldn't ask, cop-out!

What have you got there?

Detective Barton? Mmm.

- Where did you get this telegram? - Mind your own business.

Are you Miss Ackroyd?

I said, mind your own business!

Now young lady,

you'd better answer me sensibly or else I shall have to--

You'd better answer him, Miss Ackroyd,

it will save a lot of trouble.

Now,

did your father know anything about that telegram?

Oh, well it came after he had gone out tonight,

if you want to know.

Fair enough.

What about those diamonds?

I don't know anything about any diamonds.

Hmm!

Mightn’t your father have some...

secret that he's keeping from you?

If you ask me any more questions, I shall spit in your eye!

-What are you here for? -The train.

Hmm!

Who the devil are you, anyway?

Your nephew by adoption on the doorstep.

Don't get funny.

What are you after?

Slipping the country?

That was the idea.

I'd been told to set a date with Mr Sheldrake

for the goods train ferry that runs to the continent.

Goes under this house, doesn't it?

Here is my ticket. Where is yours?

Quite sure that's your ticket?

Oh-oh God, the-the light has gone out!

You blow out that light!

Ha? Me?

Oh yes!

I have done about everything, don't I?

First time, murders a man with a sausage.

Then I throws the body out of the window on a empty stomach...

right out on to the pavement.

And then-then I blows all the lights out, all over the bloomin' house.

Blimey if I could blow like that!

I'd rather you blew your angelic, blast me if I wouldn't

Where do we put him? The bloody idiot!

- In the bathroom. - In the bathroom.

True blimey, this ain't my lucky day!

I'm a murderer, I'm a liar,

and now I'm a ba-bathroom fit!

Those Suffolk diamonds now, do you know anything about them?

Were you in on that scoop?

Why should I be? That was Sheldrake's job.

He's hidden them too well,

probably in this house.

Yes, and according to that telegram,

it looks very much as though

Mr. Detective Barton knows about it too.

You know, if he turns up here, we should be thoroughly well finished.

Yes.

Look here,

when Sheldrake comes,

What about making him divide?

We might.

But from what I heard about Sheldrake, it won't be too easy.

Oh bah! His reputation is probably grossly exaggerated!

That remains to be seen.

He may be dead.

Yes, that body you know.

It takes quite a lot to kill old Sheldrake I believe!

Look!

As you were saying it takes a lot to kill me.

Are you Sheldrake?

You both have a train?

And the girl, too.

Who's that with the Ackroyd girl?

We found him nosing around when we came in.

There's another one locked in the bathroom,

he's probably asleep by now.

We can't bother about them now.

We'd better be getting down.

I do hear, but haven't we better.. um...

Oh, I-I don't know what one does in these cases, but these two...

hadn't we better tie 'em up or something?

Is it necessary?

Unless you want 'em to run downstairs and call for the police.

I hope you won't mind, we've got to catch a train.

Ah, don't be damned silly!

Come on, please!

Sorry we have to go on this journey,

but we must leave someone about in the house, you know.

I see.

So many thieves about, eh?

Well, now for the train.

Through there.

- Dad, good! - All right both?

Your father? - Yes.

Damned good the way you bluffed them, Mr Ackroyd.

Yes, I've been watching this house for some time.

- For the police? - Well, something like that.

Damn these knots!

I know Dad, let Ben help!

- Who is Ben? - He's up in the bathroom.

Oh, I'll settle with you on the landing!

Oh go on now, I'll make a bother!

That's it now, that'll do.

Ow!

Hold on!

Not so fast. Get back!

Go on!

You're a damned fine bunch!

I've got to wash my hands of the lof of ya!

Now come on, tie this fellow up again.

Properly this time.

Where is the other fellow who locked us up?

Oh, I shut him up at the end of the passage.

I suppose you thought it was me.

I hope there is no mistake about it this time.

You are Mr. Sheldrake?

Growing wise at last then?

They haven't done anything awful to Dad have they?

No, no, they're only bluffing.

What's upsetting you?

Come on speak can't you?

Leave her alone, she's deaf and dumb.

Well, Come on, aren't we going?

Yes, go on.

Eh, is this the right way?

Of course it is.

Straight on and down to the cellar.

Would you mind going first?

I'm coming back!

She spoke!

That deaf and dumb business was a fake.

A trick of a crook!

Ahh! Ah!

It's like the pictures, isn't it?

Too much for my liking.

Thanks!

Cool ...I fainted...

Hhuh! Ah!

What are you doing with those crooks?

You don't think I want to be here?!

Well, why go back to them?

It's the best thing I can do.

Besides, it's safer for you.

Anyways the police do capture them,

but it can't be helped, can it?

But surely there's a way out?

I don't know.

Untie her.

The others may be coming back.

Well...

Feel alright?

We must get the others... they are still locked in the bathroom.

Now you're going to enjoy a lovely stinger!

You big oaf, what have you done now? - Ha?

God luv, it's Miss!

I didn't know it was you. - That's the second time tonight!

Ow, ow! - Serves you right! - Ow!

Ow, blimey!

Oh, yes Miss,

he hit his head on the bloody bath he did.

I got his badge, you'd better get a doctor!

No, you get on up with the others, I'll be all right.

Sure?

Come on Ben, get a candle.

Candle? Coo, lovelies!

Ah, you want me to come downstairs again, Gov'nor?

- Ow! - Now what's the matter?

Ow, I bumped me head, guv'nor.

Of course you bump your head, you keep on stopping.

Bound to keeps on stopping, 'cause I keeps on bumping me head.

I am not going.

Not so dumb, after all, eh?

What's the idea?

I am not going.

What do you mean?

I am not going, that's all.

You don't get a chance every night, you know.

All the trains don't have empty trucks that go back to the continent.

I've made up my mind, I am not going.

- Now look here... - You're being rather childish, aren't you?

Now look here, I don't know what your game is, but you are going.

You know too much to be left behind.

And what's your idea of running back after that fellow we tied up?

Nothing except I--

Never mind, you can tell us all about it on the train.

Now come on!

Here...

give me that, guv'nor, get a copper.

What?

And have the girl arrested?

Not if I can help it. - Oo, oo.

FERRY THAT CARRIES TRAINS TO CONTINENT

THE FERRY SERVICE BETWEEN GERMANY-GREAT BRITAIN

The guard's seen us! We'd better go along and see him!

- Good evening. - Now look here--

I hope we are not intruding, but um...

You have no right on this train, I'm going to stop it.

Oh no, I'd rather you didn't do that because ah...

Hey!

Come on, let's tie him up and put him in there.

Hey!

How on earth did you get on here? You must be stewed!

Thanks.

Well, come on.

What about it?

What about what?

Oh, the diamonds!

We are going to split, aren't we?

These coaches are bone-rattling comfy aren't they? - Oh!

Better listen, Sheldrake. Keep your hands where they are.

Come on Sheldrake, it's no use pretending you left them behind.

- You know that damn well, don't you? - You better--

Oh, come along, hand them over. Here's a good fellow.

Do you think I carry them about on my watch chain?

No, but what about your pockets?

Move that gun you fool... can't you see the cops?

My God, Sheldrake, you are right!

I only met him tonight for the first time at that door step...

and I thought that there was something funny about it.

What damned nonsense!

Get over there!

Keep an eye on him Brent.Keep an eye on the subliming detective Barton.

All right, Sheldrake

but you are not going to get away with that necklace.

Aren't I?

I haven't got it!

You dirty little crook! Hand it over!

Me? I haven't got it on me!

No, but you want that rotten deaf and dumb girl to get it for you...

don't you?

Hello.

Let me have that necklace will you, Nora?

What's the idea?

Well, we might as well drop this pretense.

Yeah, and you're going to tell me.

the one thing I've been suspicious of all night.

And that I am a police officer, eh?

Well, now that that's clear, what about it?

I haven't got it.

You didn't go back for your bag for nothing.

I know no more about that necklace than Ben does.

If I had the necklace, I'd give it to you.

Hear, hear, well, I'm afraid I'll have to search you.

Oh, come off it, guv'nor, you can't do that to a lady.

Hey,guv'nor, let her go, and... here you are!

Here you are!

- What are we in a hurry for? - I want to get off!

- Stop! we're going to crash! - This is unsafe!

- We need help! - He needs to slow down!

Now come on, who's been fooling about?

All right, young lady...

Joey, look!

Get out of it! Get out of there!

- Don't shoot the engine! - Aw, come on, get off of there!

Come on, keep on going!

(SREAMING)

He's out! He hit his head on that bar.

(SHIP'S WARNING WHISTLE)

(SHIP'S HORN BLASTS)

(SHIP'S HORN BLASTS AGAIN)

What a nightmare! It's a nightmare!

They're gonna die! Gonna die!

(PEOPLE YELLING)

(CHEERING)

- What do you mean? - They got wise to me. Found out who I was.

Oh? Well who are you?

He is a detective.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I'm Barton.

I say, not the Barton?

Yes.

I have been following up Sheldrake and the Suffolk necklace for weeks.

You haven't got it yet?

Well, no, but we-- we got the girl here, and that's the same thing

I say , Mr. Barton.

Mr Barton, don't let's be too hasty over this.

I don't want to be seem rude, but, aren't you rather exceeding your rights?

Kindly let me deal with this in my own way.

All right. Then supposing you dropped Barton,

and take on your own name of Doyle.

What do you mean Doyle?

You are a clever fellow, Doyle, but you made two bad mistakes:

The first is thinking the police were only after the necklace.

They were also after you. - Me?

Yes, they knew that as sure as the necklace would draw Sheldrake,

so Sheldrake would draw you, Mr. Henry Doyle.

- Well, you're wrong. - Am I?

And the second bad mistake was in posing as a detective.

And of all the detectives, as Barton.

The comic part of it is, I'm Barton.

Hard luck, Henry.

Good night, Nora.

(HE LAUGHS)

Aw, nuts!

Good night. -Good night.

Coo-ee!

Are you a-a real-live detective?

...And making me do all the work...?

Well?

Well?

What are you going do about it?

What are you going do about it?

You better come along with me.

But... where?

Perhaps some breakfast.

(SHE LAUGHS)

Will you see me safely home, guv'nor,

if I gives you a nice wedding present, huh?
