:29:04
Now they've cancelled
the shooting,
:29:06
muggins here has got to pull a luncheon
for God knows how many out of the hat.
:29:09
- Is Her Ladyship back yet?
- No.
:29:11
Then she'll have to take
what she gets.
:29:14
Why would anyone
want to kill Sir William?
:29:16
Well, he wasn't exactly
Father Christmas.
:29:19
Get on with your work.
:29:21
And take that filthy dog
out of here.
:29:24
He made a few enemies
in his time, that's all.
:29:27
What doy ou mean, enemies?
When?
:29:29
Is this before the war, Mrs. Croft,
when you were a factory worker?
:29:33
I was not a factory worker.
I was never a factory worker.
:29:37
I was a cook
in one of his factories.
:29:39
He had two in Isleworth and two
in Twickenham, and all full of girls.
:29:43
So you can imagine.
:29:45
Wasn't that risky with factory girls?
Suppose they complained?
:29:47
Who to, exactly?
:29:49
But what if they got,
you know, in trouble?
:29:52
- What sort of trouble?
- Here, take these.
Whites only, all right?
:29:56
Didn't happen
very often.
:29:58
When it did, he arranged
to have it adopted.
:30:02
But what if you didn't
want it adopted?
:30:04
- Say you wanted to keep it.
- Then you got kicked out,
lost your job.
:30:08
You can take my word for it,
he was a hard-hearted, randy old sod.
:30:13
Ah, come in, Miss Maceach--
:30:17
- I'm Inspector Thom--
- This is all too tiresome and absurd.
:30:20
He's making
the most dreadful fuss.
:30:22
If you don't mind, I would like
to ask the young lady some questions.
:30:25
Well, I'm not leaving,
if that's what you think.
:30:29
Well, does it bother you
if Lady Trentham stays?
:30:32
Why should it?
:30:34
- Sir, someone's traipsed
a load of mud in down here.
- Not now, Dexter, please.
:30:38
I understood
there was some...
:30:40
difficulty between the late
Sir William McCordle and your employer.
:30:44
This is too vulgar
to be believed.
:30:46
I wasn't aware of that, sir.
They got on well as far as I could see.
:30:50
- You were not conscious--
- Inspector, there's
a broken coffee cup down here.
:30:53
Dexter, they have people to clear these
things up. You get on with your own job.
:30:57
So you were not aware
of any trouble...
