considering he practically owns a bear
well there doesn't mean you can just dip
into the till when everybody feels poor

it doesn't matter how extravagant you
are as long as your husband never finds
out hmm that's one of the first lessons
you'll learn when you marry anyway I
always manage to raise the money somehow

elusive you see oh do be careful
exposing you should find her

flourishing I mean moderately good
heavens don't tell me the bank's going

years as a bankers wife you seem to
imagine the bankers on sort of private
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

telling Miller but a woman doesn't have
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 m*rder 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 cr*ck
his head open
thanks for the warning my lot
how about you Robert would you rather
k*ll 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
you've been absent-minded all evening
I'd rather buying day at the bank a lot
of things seem to go wrong all at once

this you believed in my talent you
enjoyed having a tame Protege to worship
at your feet I no idea you hated me so
much I hate you because you're the most
tantalizing most provocative most

a woman with many secrets to hide my
anniversary present of Robert the
surprise hated no you went to the will

about it
it'll be amusing cry because I should
tell him that in spite of older of
bowels of love and affection you're
really quite heartless that in fact
you've already discarded your ones
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
I've always told you that love isn't
there anything that draws people
together no apparent or not you've
always accused me of being cold you even
painted me that way but I haven't
changed darling it's all in your
imagination okay let's go now I'm

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 k*lled 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 k*lled 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 k*lled
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
b*at 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
k*ll 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 m*rder*r 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 m*rder 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 m*rder 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
[Music]
she's new business here of course but
she refuses to stay at home see if I see
another secret she does but she's unable
to repeat them inspector

find out who mrs. Ainsworth saw here is
very urgent well now it could have been
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 k*lled
I'll dig that help a sick man you seem
to be doing all right he's the man
inspector he k*lled my wife I never
m*rder*d a woman in my life
except on canvas besides you owe me 200
pounds for the portrait you might wanted
to k*ll her I'd have waited until I got
the money if you didn't k*ll 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
k*ll 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 k*lled 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 k*ll 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 k*ll 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 sh*t 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 k*ll her then tell the
inspector he can't prove you k*lled 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 m*rder*r 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 k*ll you suspect me I'm I'm
beyond making sense out of anything
anymore you must help me stop it
[Music]
[Applause]
who you detective inspector Marshall
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 k*lled
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. v*olence would you
two look at him
there was nothing new she's jealous
that's all she adores making sing where
you are Saturday night huh where were
you you better come with me
it's yours I'll take that too
no not really gonna take you mean big
truck
hey any minute you said enough is it
thankful let's go
[Music]
no wait we can't leave it like that
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
nelle I really did believe I k*lled 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 k*lled 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 b*mb 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 k*ll 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

a client of mine humble fella reporter
he owed me a father he came to my office

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 k*ll her I didn't k*ll 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 m*rder*r
you met her on the 8th engine
yes I did but I didn't k*ll 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 k*ll 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]

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 m*rder 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 cr*ck
his head open

how about you Robert would you rather
k*ll 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 k*lled 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 k*lled 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 k*lled
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
b*at 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
k*ll 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 m*rder*r 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

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

valuable turns worse collapse sir

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 m*rder 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 m*rder 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
another secret she does but she's unable

was here that's my business
could you follow her and I stood down
well you lovers no I don't have anybody

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

inspector he k*lled my wife I never
m*rder*d a woman in my life
except on canvas besides you owe me 200
pounds for the portrait you might wanted
to k*ll her I'd have waited until I got
the money if you didn't k*ll 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
k*ll 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

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 k*lled you know I got
there at 8 o clock

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 k*ll 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 k*ll 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 sh*t 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 k*ll her then tell the
inspector he can't prove you k*lled 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 m*rder*r 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 k*ll you suspect me I'm I'm
beyond making sense out of anything
anymore you must help me stop it

seal I've been out with Lucille once or
twice just to get away from Miller

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 k*lled 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

fishing expedition upon the heath you

a client of mine humble fella reporter
he owed me a father he came to my office

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

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

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

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 k*ll her I didn't k*ll 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 m*rder*r
you met her on the 8th engine
yes I did but I didn't k*ll 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 k*ll 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
