1:09:01
Oh, no.
1:09:03
Exactly the same murder method
is employed in our play on Monday -

1:09:07
Out Of The Stewpot.
1:09:09
Any one of the company
could have done it.

1:09:12
The way things are now I am tempted
to arrest the whole lot of them.

1:09:16
- Really?
- Yes, really.

1:09:17
What you 've found out, what we've
found out... look at what we've got.

1:09:22
Cosgood.
1:09:23
He told you he'd only
just written Remember September

1:09:26
and yet we know
it was produced in 1951.

1:09:28
Victim one,
Mrs McGinty was in it.

1:09:31
This fellow Summers,
we know he took Mrs McGinty out

1:09:34
when the company was in Milchester,
the week she was murdered.

1:09:38
His wife, Maureen, knew
about this and she didn't like it.

1:09:42
Then there's this spooky girl, Eva.
1:09:44
She was having a romance with victim
number two, George Rowton,

1:09:48
and he tossed her aside like a...
1:09:49
- Worn-out glove, sir?
- Yes.

1:09:52
Then there's young Arthur -
that note was typed on his typewriter

1:09:56
and as a result, victim number three.
1:10:00
There is a point here.
1:10:02
In 1951, the younger members of the
company would have been children.

1:10:06
Yes, by George.
1:10:08
If that performance
of Remember September in 1951

1:10:11
started this whole thing,
then none of those youngsters -

1:10:14
Eva, Bill, Sheila, Arthur -
could have anything to do with it.

1:10:18
Anyone could have gone into Arthur's
room and used the typewriter.

1:10:26
- He's here.
- What?

1:10:28
- He's here, sir.
- Oh, yes.

1:10:30
- Would you wait here a moment?
- Wait?

1:10:33
Please. Sergeant.
1:10:43
I wonder why the iron was hot?
1:10:47
- What are you doing here?
- Well, I...

1:10:50
You asked me to drop in
the cast list when I passed.

1:10:53
You know, Remember September.
1:10:55
You were passing
at 2:30 in the morning? Come now.

1:10:58
Yes.
1:10:59
As a matter of fact, the Inspector
was kind enough to send a car.
