If he meant to poison himself, why would he not at least leave a note? 8 00:02:04,959 --> 00:02:09,304 I fear that the act of burning his papers bears testament enough to his state of mind. 9 00:02:11,030 --> 00:02:13,352 Mrs. Cree, forgive me... 10 00:02:13,432 --> 00:02:16,328 ...I know this is neither the time nor the place but... 11 00:02:16,809 --> 00:02:19,707 ...may I say what an ardent admirer I am of your work? 12 00:02:20,306 --> 00:02:22,196 I looked in the kitchen, sir. 13 00:02:22,976 --> 00:02:24,799 This was all I could find. 14 00:02:26,647 --> 00:02:30,803 I'm afraid this'll be it. There was residue in a glass on the nightstand. 15 00:02:30,884 --> 00:02:32,773 It can't have been in there, sir. 16 00:02:32,853 --> 00:02:35,543 His nightly cordial was always prepared by Mrs. Cree. 17 00:02:35,622 --> 00:02:37,145 Aveline. 18 00:02:38,324 --> 00:02:41,949 You... did not make the drink? 19 00:02:42,628 --> 00:02:46,753 Surely you're not asking me in earnest if I poisoned my husband? 20 00:02:46,834 --> 00:02:49,757 Sir, believe me, she cannot have done this! 21 00:02:49,837 --> 00:02:52,245 The two of them were in a most violent dispute yesterday! 22 00:02:52,345 --> 00:02:55,295 Why would she prepare Mr. Cree a nightcap when they were not on speaking terms? 23 00:02:55,375 --> 00:02:58,039 Aveline, what has possessed you? 24 00:02:58,678 --> 00:03:01,564 Sir, please, allow me to explain. 25 00:03:01,644 --> 00:03:03,669 I'm sorry, Mrs. Cree. 26 00:03:03,749 --> 00:03:05,871 You'll need to do that down at Scotland Yard. 27 00:03:12,457 --> 00:03:17,118 A woman accused of poisoning her husband. 28 00:03:18,098 --> 00:03:20,596 But not just any woman... 29 00:03:22,534 --> 00:03:24,590 ...little Lizzie... 30 00:03:24,670 --> 00:03:28,362 ...darling of the music halls. 31 00:03:29,943 --> 00:03:32,265 But the city was in thrall... 32 00:03:32,345 --> 00:03:37,172 ...with the fearsome Limehouse Golem. 33 00:03:38,301 --> 00:03:40,007 Who was he? 34 00:03:40,087 --> 00:03:42,910 Who would be his next victim? 35 00:03:44,090 --> 00:03:46,680 The Golem had last struck... 36 00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:49,850 ...the day before her arrest. 37 00:03:50,831 --> 00:03:53,420 And his was the name... 38 00:03:53,499 --> 00:03:56,540 ...on every Londoner's lips. 39 00:04:15,555 --> 00:04:17,444 How many are dead? 40 00:04:18,524 --> 00:04:20,101 Five. 41 00:04:20,181 --> 00:04:25,042 Shopkeeper Mr. Gerrard, his wife Mary, their maid... 42 00:04:25,531 --> 00:04:27,986 ...and the two Gerrard children. 43 00:04:30,170 --> 00:04:33,797 It's not number 29. 29 Ratcliffe Highway? 44 00:04:33,877 --> 00:04:36,366 - What of it? - The Ratcliffe highway murders? 45 00:04:36,446 --> 00:04:39,957 - John Williams? - It's a bit before my time. 46 00:04:40,037 --> 00:04:43,115 And mine. It was 70 years ago. 47 00:04:45,254 --> 00:04:48,045 Inspector Roberts! Can you confirm that this is the work of the Golem? 48 00:04:48,125 --> 00:04:51,015 - What is it about this house? - Do you think it could be cursed, sir? 49 00:04:51,095 --> 00:04:53,851 Gentlemen, gentlemen, please! 50 00:04:53,931 --> 00:04:58,555 I'd ask you to direct your requests to my colleague... 51 00:04:58,634 --> 00:05:02,592 ...Detective Inspector Kildare. He's taking over the case. 52 00:05:02,672 --> 00:05:04,527 Kildare? How are you spelling that? 53 00:05:04,607 --> 00:05:05,928 Taking over? 54 00:05:06,009 --> 00:05:09,656 I'm just stepping aside, not stepping down. 55 00:05:12,182 --> 00:05:15,039 The public seeks reassurance, Kildare. 56 00:05:15,119 --> 00:05:17,817 What better way than to give them new blood? 57 00:05:19,855 --> 00:05:22,845 Are you fearful of stepping into the shoes of the great Mr. Roberts? 58 00:05:22,927 --> 00:05:26,348 How many more people have to die before the Golem is caught? 59 00:05:26,428 --> 00:05:28,013 Driver! 60 00:05:28,799 --> 00:05:30,637 Detective Roberts! 61 00:05:32,402 --> 00:05:35,825 Inspector Kildare, is it true that this is your first murder case? 62 00:05:35,906 --> 00:05:37,761 Inspector Kildare! 63 00:05:38,708 --> 00:05:40,463 Move. Move back. 64 00:05:40,543 --> 00:05:42,445 Do you know if they'll be displaying the bodies today? 65 00:05:42,525 --> 00:05:46,036 Step aside, sir. The maid was found over there. 66 00:05:46,116 --> 00:05:48,244 Were there footprints when you arrived? The Golem's prints? 67 00:05:48,324 --> 00:05:51,108 - Half of Limehouse was already here. - Which of the victims was found there? 68 00:05:51,188 --> 00:05:54,595 None. The Golem moved that one himself. Either Mr. or Mrs. Gerrard. 69 00:05:54,675 --> 00:05:57,647 More likely him. If the maid was killed first, he'd investigate the disturbance. 70 00:05:57,727 --> 00:05:59,916 - Where is her body now? - We took her upstairs, sir. 71 00:05:59,997 --> 00:06:02,092 At least up there we can keep the hoi poloi out. 72 00:06:02,172 --> 00:06:04,584 - Down here is a lost cause. - They can't all be reporters. 73 00:06:04,664 --> 00:06:09,258 No. Locals looking for entertainment. Cheaper than a ticket to a shocker. 74 00:06:09,338 --> 00:06:12,866 Sometimes I suspect if I was dispatched to hell, I'd barely notice the change... 75 00:06:12,946 --> 00:06:15,612 ...bar the weather. This is Inspector Kildare. 76 00:06:15,691 --> 00:06:18,014 - Taking over from Roberts. - Sir. 77 00:06:19,215 --> 00:06:23,282 Can you tell this idiot to let me up? I'm with the Evening Post! 78 00:06:33,229 --> 00:06:35,260 This is the maid? 79 00:06:43,973 --> 00:06:45,796 I'm sorry. 80 00:06:46,176 --> 00:06:48,473 I've never seen anything of this kind. 81 00:06:50,212 --> 00:06:52,243 Neither have I. 82 00:07:34,423 --> 00:07:36,651 "He who observes... 83 00:07:36,731 --> 00:07:40,883 ...spills no less blood than he who inflicts the blow." 84 00:07:40,964 --> 00:07:42,853 Lactantius. 85 00:07:42,933 --> 00:07:44,756 Impressive, sir. 86 00:07:46,036 --> 00:07:48,626 The truth has a habit of sticking in the mind. 87 00:07:48,856 --> 00:07:50,380 Truth? 88 00:07:52,759 --> 00:07:57,225 Those who fail to prevent injustice are as guilty as the perpetrator. 89 00:07:58,448 --> 00:07:59,998 It's a message... 90 00:08:01,051 --> 00:08:03,015 ...to us. 91 00:08:09,155 --> 00:08:12,415 Evidence... John Cree case. 92 00:08:12,695 --> 00:08:15,652 - The poisoning. - You've had quite a week. 93 00:08:15,732 --> 00:08:18,196 First the Limehouse Golem, now this. 94 00:08:22,304 --> 00:08:25,062 I heard Inspector Kildare was asking after you. 95 00:08:25,142 --> 00:08:28,999 Yes. I don't know what he wanted. I keep missing him. 96 00:08:29,079 --> 00:08:32,502 Well, they did right giving him the Golem case, I reckon. 97 00:08:32,582 --> 00:08:37,774 He'd have risen well above Roberts by now if those rumors hadn't done for him. 98 00:08:37,855 --> 00:08:41,210 You know. That he wasn't the marrying kind... 99 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,464 ...men. 100 00:08:46,962 --> 00:08:50,402 It's before your time, I suppose. 101 00:08:58,707 --> 00:09:00,148 Come in. 102 00:09:02,079 --> 00:09:06,137 - I got your message, sir. - I'm being assigned a constable. 103 00:09:06,217 --> 00:09:09,439 I thought someone of your knowledge of Limehouse might be an asset. 104 00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:12,042 When I heard nothing back, I thought perhaps the offer didn't appeal. 105 00:09:12,122 --> 00:09:14,845 I came by twice, sir. You were out. 106 00:09:14,925 --> 00:09:17,965 I was at Limehouse. Appealing for witnesses. 107 00:09:18,045 --> 00:09:19,926 To no avail. 108 00:09:25,517 --> 00:09:28,875 - What are you looking for? - I'm just looking. Trying to understand. 109 00:09:28,956 --> 00:09:31,812 The Golem's a madman. What else is there to be understood? 110 00:09:31,892 --> 00:09:35,449 Even madness has its own logic. Here there's none. 111 00:09:35,528 --> 00:09:38,017 At Ratcliffe Highway, he slaughtered a household. 112 00:09:38,098 --> 00:09:42,155 The previous week, a prostitute. Alice Stanton. Before that, Solomon Weil. 113 00:09:42,235 --> 00:09:45,101 He was an old man, a scholar. 114 00:09:47,539 --> 00:09:49,395 Oh, my God. 115 00:09:49,475 --> 00:09:52,166 - Is that his... - Yes. 116 00:09:52,245 --> 00:09:55,538 Laid upon the open pages of a book on Jewish folklore... 117 00:09:55,618 --> 00:09:57,621 ...like a bookmark. 118 00:09:58,852 --> 00:10:02,643 "The Legend of the Golem." Is that how the press got the name? 119 00:10:02,722 --> 00:10:05,848 - Our murderer obviously approved. - And who were the first two? 120 00:10:05,929 --> 00:10:09,282 Both women of the streets. I do remember reading of that one. 121 00:10:09,362 --> 00:10:13,221 - "Old Salty." - Her name was Jane Quig. 122 00:10:14,101 --> 00:10:16,790 The point is there's no story to any of them. 123 00:10:16,870 --> 00:10:20,227 Men, women, young, old. Jew and Christian. Rich and poor. 124 00:10:20,306 --> 00:10:23,164 - Perhaps he just likes to kill. - No. 125 00:10:23,643 --> 00:10:26,432 I'll wager there's a tale being told. 126 00:10:26,512 --> 00:10:30,527 If we can sink to his circle of damnation to comprehend it. 127 00:10:31,985 --> 00:10:35,569 If I may say, sir, seems you've been wasted down in theft-and-fraud. 128 00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:39,667 I'll be back there soon enough, if the Golem strikes again. That seems to be the plan. 129 00:10:39,747 --> 00:10:43,082 - What do you mean? - The yard is setting me up as a scapegoat. 130 00:10:43,163 --> 00:10:46,586 They'll not risk Roberts, will they? I'm expendable. 131 00:10:46,666 --> 00:10:50,713 They get to preserve the reputation of their golden boy and the public... 132 00:10:52,906 --> 00:10:55,796 - ...get blood. - Well, as I said back in Limehouse... 133 00:10:55,876 --> 00:10:58,432 ...seems they never have their fill of that. 134 00:10:58,511 --> 00:11:01,101 "He who spectates." He doesn't mean us. 135 00:11:01,181 --> 00:11:06,439 He means the public. The public want blood. The Golem provides it. 136 00:11:06,519 --> 00:11:09,575 Yes! I'm sure that must be it, sir. 137 00:11:09,655 --> 00:11:12,129 Are you? I'm not. 138 00:11:13,359 --> 00:11:16,621 Do you feel like a walk... to the library? 139 00:11:27,471 --> 00:11:30,399 That quotation. About the gladiatorial ring? 140 00:11:30,479 --> 00:11:34,334 The guilt of the audience who seek bloodshed? Well, perhaps you read it elsewhere. 141 00:11:34,414 --> 00:11:37,637 It's quoted in an old piece by the essayist Thomas de Quincey. 142 00:11:37,717 --> 00:11:40,168 One I imagine might be of interest to a man in your line of work. 143 00:11:40,248 --> 00:11:42,217 - What's the piece? - "On murder considered... 144 00:11:42,296 --> 00:11:47,157 ...as one of the fine arts." A satire about the Ratcliffe Highway killings of 1811. 145 00:11:49,661 --> 00:11:52,219 Should we talk with this de Quincey? 146 00:11:52,298 --> 00:11:56,132 He has been dead for 20 years, Flood, so it might be a bit... 147 00:12:05,811 --> 00:12:07,828 What is it? 148 00:12:12,119 --> 00:12:15,366 Left to rot. To kill a whore. 149 00:12:40,345 --> 00:12:42,069 Who last borrowed this book? 150 00:12:42,149 --> 00:12:44,738 This is a reading room, Inspector, not a local library. 151 00:12:44,818 --> 00:12:48,008 So nothing leaves the premises? Do you keep an attendance record? 152 00:12:48,088 --> 00:12:51,779 Of course, but there's no way of knowing what anyone read or when they read it. 153 00:12:51,859 --> 00:12:54,690 Who was here on September the 24th? 154 00:12:57,897 --> 00:13:00,187 There were four men in the reading room that day.
