- That's London.
- It's music.

:27:14
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon, ma'am.

:27:17
It's nice to see you getting out again.
:27:19
- Where to, ma'am?
- The Tower of London.

:27:21
Very good, ma'am.
The Tower of London it is.

:27:30
What's the matter with the mistress?
She don't look ill to me. Is she?

:27:34
I don't know. Not as I can see.
:27:37
But the master keeps telling her she is.
:27:41
Here, ladies and gentlemen,
we have the ax of the headsman...

:27:44
and the execution block.
:27:47
These are the originals with which
such historic persons as Lady Jane Grey...

:27:51
and Queen Catherine Howard
was beheaded within these precincts.

:27:55
The victim, kneeling,
laid his head upon the block...

:27:57
fitted his neck into the small,
hollowed-out space...

:28:00
designed to receive it,
whereupon the ax descended...

:28:03
severing the head
from the torso with one blow...

:28:06
or in unlucky cases, two.
:28:08
Moving to our right,
we have a model of the famous rack...

:28:11
the instrument of torture
upon which prisoners were stretched...

:28:14
their limbs being frequently torn
from their sockets...

:28:17
in an effort to extract
a confession from them, true or false.

:28:36
There you are.
I wondered what had become of you.

:28:39
It was so close in there.
Let's go out into the sunshine.

:28:53
- Are we going to see the torture chamber?
- Certainly. I think it's right over here.
