:45:00
It seems to me that whomever
Mrs McGinty was blackmailing
:45:03
must have had some connection with
the production of this play in 1951
:45:08
and is with the Cosgood Company.
:45:11
The author himself?
:45:12
- Perhaps.
- How did you come by it?
:45:15
- I found it on my pillow.
- What?
:45:17
It was left there deliberately.
:45:20
Then the murderer knows!
He's been on to you all the time!
:45:24
He's playing cat and mouse with you.
:45:26
- Two can play at that game.
- Miss Marple, I'm deeply disturbed.
:45:31
Don't get yourself in a state.
:45:33
I'm not in a state... I'm cold.
:45:36
Oh, dear me.
:45:40
There we are.
:45:41
That's better, isn't it?
Tuck it well round.
:45:44
Now...
:45:46
What organisation
would be likely to keep a record
:45:49
of all professional theatrical
productions?
:45:52
The censorship people.
:45:54
To be sure. The Lord Chamberlain's
Office in London.
:45:58
I'd be obliged
if you would go there post-haste
:46:01
and enquire into the history
of this play.
:46:03
Where it was produced in 1951,
who was in it and so on.
:46:07
It may have been played
in many theatres.
:46:09
I hardly think so - I've read it.
:46:13
Very well,
I'll take the next train up.
:46:16
Good. To your task and I must fly.
:46:20
I wish to be at the table
when they come down.
:46:23
Away, away!
:46:31
Thank you, Mrs Harris.
:46:33
I seem to be a trifle early.
:46:35
No, the others are a trifle late. Not
that I'm complaining.
:46:39
If they're not down in time,
I've got six cats to feed.
:46:43
Good morning, Florrie.
:46:45
Good morning.
:46:47
Good morning, good morning.
:46:49
Good morning, Mr Cosgood.
:46:50
- I trust you slept well?
- Like a toff, thank you.
:46:53
Good, good.
:46:55
Nothing like sleep for knitting up
the ravelled sleeve of care,
:46:58
as the bard so aptly pointed out.
