WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:03.040 And now doctor Watson, supposing we get back to her 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:06.160 Majesty's diamond jubilee and the gentleman who tried to spoil 3 00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:06.759 the celebration. 4 00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:10.119 Yes, well, all London was on fate, mister Hannis. 5 00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:14.800 The festivities were endless garden parties, concerts, parades. 6 00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:18.600 The entire city was in a holiday mood. Or but 7 00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:20.079 my friend Sherlock Holmes. 8 00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:22.879 He had drawn the blinds to shut out the brilliant 9 00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:27.120 spring sunshine and lay moping on the sofa, mostly pulling 10 00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:28.320 apart the tassels of. 11 00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:29.679 His ancient dressing gown. 12 00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:39.560 Oh, for heaven's sake, homes back up and stop strewing 13 00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:41.439 bits of silk all over the carpet. 14 00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:43.320 You look as if you were molting. 15 00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:46.759 Everyone else's overjoyed at the celebrations, even alone. 16 00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:48.479 I'm having my own private celebration. 17 00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.759 H What are you celebrating in this particularly lugubrious fashion? 18 00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:56.560 Watson, you realize it's just six years since Professor Morriotty 19 00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:58.799 and I pushed each other into the writing back falls 20 00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:00.560 him back. 21 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:02.759 But you're not going to tell me you're sorry. You 22 00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:04.920 finally rich society of that monster. 23 00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:07.959 No, I suppose not, but think what an occasion of 24 00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:10.519 this sort would have meant to him. Theaters and ballrooms 25 00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:14.519 fairly dripping with jewels, intrigue and cabals on every street corner. 26 00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:18.439 But a veritable Eldorado for a master criminal like Professor Moriarty. 27 00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:20.400 And what's happened? Nothing? 28 00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:24.840 Absolutely nothing. Well, you make your Scotland Yard some credit. 29 00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:26.879 They have been working night and day to protect the 30 00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:28.599 holidaymakers Scotland Yard. 31 00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.840 How would Scotland Yard have prevailed against a mastermind like Mariarty? Yes, 32 00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:35.879 the one antagonist I ever found who was my mental 33 00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:37.719 equal army. 34 00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.159 You forget. If you hadn't finished him, he'd have finished you. 35 00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:43.840 You ought to thank you like his tars, he's gone 36 00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:46.400 instead of moping about like a dying duck. 37 00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:48.959 And see what it is, Watson, that's a good fellow. 38 00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:51.760 In activity, that's rather that's wrong with you, homes, if 39 00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:58.640 you've engaged in any normal occupation. Yes, there's a letter 40 00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:01.640 for you, homes. Miss Hanson says it was delivered. 41 00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:04.599 By hand, probably some female whose pet poodle is a 42 00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:06.000 lope with someone else's spaniel. 43 00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:06.719 I'm not interested. 44 00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:11.080 Purple letter paper, addressed in a large scrawling hand. There's 45 00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:14.000 a strange sort of crisscross in the upper left hand corner. 46 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:15.879 Of the envelope. What's that, Watson, give me that envelope? Well, 47 00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:17.680 all right, you needn't snatch it out of my hand. 48 00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:20.080 By all that's holy, that's not a double crisscross. It's 49 00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:23.240 a letter, m Watson. It's Professor Moriarty's handwriting. 50 00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:25.000 Oh, you're off your head, Holmes. 51 00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:27.840 This little Mariarty business has become an obsession. 52 00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:29.199 A hei feis. 53 00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:31.639 You'd better go out in the fresh air and get 54 00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:33.360 some exercise, or you'll be imagining that. 55 00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:36.280 You see, Watson and listen to this to the world's 56 00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:40.599 greatest detective, mister Sherlock Holmes. Warning, at least he doesn't 57 00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:43.560 underrate me, Watson, Oh, go to blazes. You will doubtless 58 00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:46.240 be astounded to learn. I am alive. I managed to 59 00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:50.039 survive our little personal encounter in Switzerland, not without sustaining 60 00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:52.400 physical damage which kept me in the hospital for over 61 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.120 a year. The remainder of the time which has intervened 62 00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:57.719 since we last met, has been spent in building myself 63 00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:01.199 a new organization. You've destroyed my last one, If you remember, 64 00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:04.319 I shall not soon forgive you for that. You doubtless 65 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:06.599 look on yourself as society's protector. 66 00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:09.280 You are wrong. I like that, don't it? To rout Watson. 67 00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:11.800 The more I am thwarted, the greater is my thirst 68 00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:14.960 for revenge on society. I have held my hand long enough. 69 00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.719 From the day forward, look out for me. I shall 70 00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:21.120 begin this afternoon by staging a daring jewel robbery in 71 00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.479 the strand. Tonight a certain lady at the command performance 72 00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:27.360 in Albert Hall will lose her famous emeralds. Tomorrow, and 73 00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.080 the day after I shall perpetrate some new outrage. 74 00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:31.680 He's ranting like a madman. 75 00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:35.080 And last, but not least, you and your colleague doctor 76 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:35.879 Watson will be. 77 00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:36.560 Put out of the way. 78 00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.280 I take pleasure in advising you of the fact that 79 00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:42.159 your hepatudinous friend Dr Watson will be the first to go. 80 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:47.479 Signed Mariarty. So I'm a bit of first. He doesn't 81 00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:51.319 fight me, the old babbelheaded blow hard. Oh, I say, home, sir, 82 00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:52.879 what is hebitudinous? 83 00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:56.879 Hebitudinous, my dear Watson means rather blunted mentally? 84 00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.520 Oh it does does it? What's happening out a hall 85 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:01.120 to night? Watson? 86 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:03.479 I believe it's a concert bad and in a petty 87 00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:04.879 everyone will be there. 88 00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:08.840 You ain't thinking of attending. I suppose why not, Watson? 89 00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:09.919 Why not? 90 00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:13.280 You might tell missus Hudson to shake the camphor out 91 00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:15.879 of our evening clothes. I wonder if I have a 92 00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:16.800 clean stiff shirt. 93 00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:27.399 Oh dash it. All these seems to be the difficulty, Watson. 94 00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:30.680 Oh everything shrank my collar, my waist, could even my 95 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.240 evening pumps. Why is it when anything's laid away in 96 00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:36.959 muffballs for a few months and inevitably comes out of 97 00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:37.959 size smaller. 98 00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.839 It couldn't be because you've grown a size larger. 99 00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:44.120 I suppose. Oh, shut up right there? You see? You 100 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:46.439 see what happens when I lose my temper? What? I 101 00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:47.560 just popped another button? 102 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:49.600 I suggest you to send to the kitchen and allarm 103 00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.160 missus Hudson to repair the damage. 104 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:55.360 No, now what it sounds like one of your confounded clients. 105 00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:55.759 Don't worry. 106 00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:57.519 I'll get rid of him in short order. I better 107 00:04:57.560 --> 00:04:59.600 take the backstairs down to the kitchen. Watson, you don't 108 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.000 want to be brought in a disarray in case the 109 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:06.399 client is a lady who good Lord, the flowers that 110 00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:11.519 bloom in the spring trailer come in, mister Holmes, Mister 111 00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:15.319 Sherlock Holmes, yes, I have Hector Pumfret of Pumfret, Pumfort 112 00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:17.920 and Smock. We are the best known duel as in London, 113 00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:20.720 mister Holmes, by appointment to His Highness, the Prince of Wales. 114 00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:23.879 No less, of course, of course you have a shop 115 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:25.480 in the strand and you've just been robbed. 116 00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:28.720 But mister Holmes, how did you know it happened less 117 00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:29.399 than an hour ago? 118 00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.399 My dear mister Pumfret, I have rather special sources of information. 119 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.759 It's incredible I haven't informed anyone, not even the police. 120 00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.920 You see, some of the stolen jewels weren't my property. 121 00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:42.319 Lady Biddlesburg's pearls, for instance, as she said, would be restrung. 122 00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:46.839 Then, of course the great Burmese ruby I had upon consignment, I. 123 00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:49.879 Practically sold it to that wealthy mister Comps Jones from Denver, 124 00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:52.920 who it will ruin my business if they about recover. Pity, 125 00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:55.079 But it's out frazeous that such a thing should be 126 00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:57.920 allowed to happen in a civilized country, and in broad daylight. 127 00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:01.839 What's happened in broad day strake? Where did you come from? 128 00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:03.879 And what in thunder you mean? Bursting in honest like this, 129 00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:04.920 mister Pomfret, I. 130 00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:07.360 Understand you've been burgled.

He telled me where you'd popped off to, 135 00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:19.519 so I came round to make sure you didn't get 136 00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:20.879 any bad advice. 137 00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:24.040 Thank you, lestrade for the vote of confidence. And now 138 00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:26.480 I suppose you sit here quietly. Well, mister Pomfret tells 139 00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:28.879 me just what occurred where mister Holmes. I was in 140 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:30.800 the shop alone, it was getting late and I was 141 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.439 about to lock up when a nice, respectable Youngish man 142 00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.920 walked in the door. He wore a Prince Albert, carried 143 00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:39.240 a silver headed Malaco stick, a small plato, and had 144 00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:40.839 just the suggestion of. 145 00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:41.360 A limp. 146 00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:50.160 Pardon me or mitt Hamfred.

Whether it is interesting 175 00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:05.519 very interesting. 176 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.639 The thing that interested me about mister Pomford's story was 177 00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:13.120 the thief's name, Watson, Doctor Watson, my dear lestrade. 178 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.720 You don't suppose any jewel thief is going to be 179 00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:16.000 foolish enough to give his right name. 180 00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:18.839 I'm not so sure.
