-No.
-It's the only thing we can do.

1:08:03
After Mrs. Wendice
lost my letter...

1:08:05
...she received these two notes.
1:08:12
Last October?.
1:08:15
How many times have you
seen this man?.

1:08:17
I've never seen him!
1:08:19
-Mr. Halliday, come with us.
-Yes, of course.

1:08:22
Mrs. Wendice...
1:08:23
...when you make your statement...
1:08:25
...there may be other
police officers present.

1:08:28
I shall warn you first
that anything you say...

1:08:30
...will be taken down
and may be used in evidence.

1:08:33
Now never mind what you've
told me so far.

1:08:35
We'll forget all about that.
1:08:37
But from now on, tell us exactly
what you know about this man...

1:08:41
...and exactly what happened last night.
1:08:43
If you try and conceal anything at all...
1:08:46
...it may put you
in a very serious position.

1:08:48
I wish you'd explain
what you mean by this.

1:08:51
I will.
1:08:53
Now, do you admit
that you killed this man?.

1:08:55
Well, you say you did it
in self-defense.

1:08:58
Unfortunately, there were no witnesses...
1:09:00
...so we've only your word for that.
1:09:02
But I heard it all, inspector,
over the telephone.

1:09:05
What exactly did you hear, Mr. Wendice?.
1:09:08
I heard a series of faint cries.
1:09:11
Did you hear anything to indicate
that a struggle was going on?.

1:09:14
What I did hear, inspector, is perfectly
consistent with what my wife told me.

1:09:18
So all you really know of the matter
is what your wife told you, isn't it?.

1:09:23
Now, you suggest that this man
came to burgle your flat.

1:09:26
But there's no evidence of that.
1:09:28
There is evidence, however,
that he was blackmailing you.

1:09:32
-Blackmail?.
-Yes, I'm afraid that's true, Tony.

1:09:34
And you suggest he came in
by the window.

1:09:36
And we know that he came in
by that door.

1:09:39
But he can't have come in that way.
That door was locked.

1:09:42
And there are only two keys.
1:09:43
My husband had his with him.
Mine was in my handbag.

1:09:46
Here.
1:09:48
You could have let him in.
1:09:50
Are you suggesting
she let him in herself?.

1:09:52
At present, that appears to be
the only way he could've entered.

1:09:55
Don't you even believe I was attacked?.
1:09:58
How do you think I got
these bruises on my throat?.
