:56:11
Enjoying that, are you, sir?
:56:14
Sergeant, my wife is
currently taking a course
:56:17
at the Continental School
of Gourmet Cooking.
:56:19
Apparently they don't know the principle:
To eat well in this country,
:56:22
one must have breakfast
three times a day.
:56:25
And an English breakfast at that.
I don't mean your café complet.
:56:28
- Beg pardon, sir?
- A cup of coffee half an inch deep,
:56:31
in floating bits of boiled milk,
and a sweet bun full of air.
:56:34
- That's what I had this morning.
- I see what you mean, sir.
:56:37
- I'm a... Quaker Oats man, myself.
- (Chuckles)
:56:40
(Knock At Door)
:56:42
Excuse me, sir.
:56:44
This has just come in.
It's the lab report on the ten-pound note
:56:47
- that Blaney paid the hotel bill with.
- Yes.
:56:50
As you'll see, the note
bore traces of face powder
:56:53
identical to that which we found
in Mrs Blaney's handbag.
:56:56
- Thank you.
- Thank you, sir.
:56:58
Well, Sergeant, we were in luck after all.
:57:01
- That just about does it for him.
- Looks very much like it.
:57:05
I've never run into any of these
jokers before. What are they like?
:57:10
Oh, they vary, but not a lot.
:57:12
The thing to remember is they hate
women, and are mostly impotent.
:57:15
- Impotent?
- Don't mistake rape for potency.
:57:21
In the latter stage of the disease,
:57:22
it's the strangling, not the sex,
that brings them on.
:57:26
Above all, of course, they're sadists.
:57:28
- You know what they are, I'm sure.
- Oh, yes, sir.
:57:31
If you don't, read all about it in here:
Mrs Blaney's divorce petition.
:57:35
It tells you a great deal
about the habits of our hero.
:57:37
(Phone Ringing)
:57:39
Yeah?
:57:41
Right. Put him on.
Yes, Chief Inspector Oxford speaking.
:57:45
My name is Forsythe, Inspector. Felix Forsythe.
:57:49
I run the Globe Public House, Covent Garden.
:57:51
I see from the newspaper you're
in charge of these strangling cases.
:57:55
Yes, that is so.
:57:56
Good, because I've got
some information to impart.
:57:59
Now, this man you're looking for,
the one with the patches on his suit.
