:05:01
Very well.
:05:03
Thank you.
:05:06
Ah, yes.
:05:08
If what I have said
is the truth of the matter,

:05:11
then the prisoner was delayed in
the execution of his evil subterfuge

:05:16
by the desperate fight of his victim.
:05:19
Those scattered banknotes,
:05:21
that pathetic crushed rose
torn from her dress...

:05:25
He was delayed, I say, long
enough for the timely intervention

:05:30
of the alert Police Constable Wells.
:05:35
Summing up
for a conviction, Inspector.

:05:39
- Stand you a beer afterwards, Wells.
- Thank you.

:05:42
...had every opportunity
of knowing that the unfortunate widow

:05:45
kept her life savings there
instead of in the bank

:05:50
and that Harold Taylor was bent
on securing her meagre fortune.

:05:57
If the facts as presented to you
admit of any reasonable doubt,

:06:00
then the accused is entitled
to the benefit of that doubt.

:06:05
Members of the jury,
:06:08
if you have been convinced by the
evidence beyond all reasonable doubt,

:06:12
that the accused
committed this heinous crime,

:06:16
then it is your solemn duty
to return a verdict of guilty.

:06:23
You will retire
and consider your verdict.

:06:31
Might just have time
for that beer, Wells.

:06:44
There's absolutely
no doubt in my mind he's guilty.

:06:47
He was caught
red-handed by the policeman.

:06:58
Prisoner at the bar,
have you anything to say...
