00:00:00You
00:00:30You
00:01:00You
00:01:24Know then the legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles.
00:01:27Know then that the great hall of Baskervilles
00:01:31was once held by Sir Hugo of that name.
00:01:34A wild, profane, and godless man.
00:01:37An evil man in truth.
00:01:39For there was with him a certain ugly and cruel humor
00:01:43that made his name a byword in the county.
00:01:50My friend learned swiftly.
00:01:52Aye.
00:01:53He's already learned to fly like a wildfowl
00:01:57and now he swims like a waterfowl.
00:02:05Shall we see how he roasts?
00:02:07Felt him.
00:02:10By the time the night is on, our friend will know better
00:02:12than to condemn the sport of his master.
00:02:19Come on out.
00:02:20Come on.
00:02:21Come on.
00:02:29Here he comes, Sir Hugo.
00:02:30Here he is, Sir Hugo.
00:02:33Here he is, Sir Hugo.
00:02:34Now our waterfowl has become guinea-fowl.
00:02:46Guinea pig more likely.
00:02:48A bird or beast will still make him sing like a nightingale.
00:02:51No, sir.
00:02:52This may teach you to criticize my pleasures.
00:02:57If it were anyone but my own daughter, Master.
00:03:00You should be proud that a basketball should so much as look at your miserable child.
00:03:04No, no, the game was spoiled before the wager was laid.
00:03:22Do not crowd me, Sirs, I pray you.
00:03:25I will not pay.
00:03:29Away!
00:03:31Well, if I must, I must.
00:03:34But not in gold.
00:03:36In kind.
00:03:38With a plating I was keeping for myself.
00:03:44I accept.
00:03:46Where is the girl?
00:03:48Girl?
00:03:49What talk is this of a girl I know of no girl?
00:03:51No!
00:03:54Enough, enough!
00:03:55You shall see her at once.
00:03:56And you shall see her before Sir Richard bursts with passion.
00:04:03See to it that there will be no fighting among your herd of rams.
00:04:21It's...
00:04:22here.
00:04:44It's time to knock on the lawn.
00:04:47It's time to knock on the lawn.
00:04:48She's got away.
00:04:50What does she think I am that she does this to me?
00:04:54I'm her, damn her!
00:04:58I have her now.
00:05:02I have her now.
00:05:04What do you think I am that she does this to me?
00:05:06What do you think I am that she does this to me?
00:05:08I'm her, damn her!
00:05:14I have her now.
00:05:16I have her now.
00:05:18You there, let loose the pack!
00:05:21And you, my hunter at the door!
00:05:23Set the hounds on her.
00:05:25But, sir, you can't do that.
00:05:27Bounds!
00:05:29Let loose the pack!
00:05:46Get her!
00:05:47My friend, you cannot do this!
00:05:48I'll get her!
00:05:49May the hounds of hell take me if I can't hound her down!
00:05:55Help!
00:05:56Help!
00:05:57Help!
00:05:58Help!
00:05:59Get her!
00:06:00My friend, you cannot do this!
00:06:01I'll get her!
00:06:02May the hounds of hell take me if I can't hound her down!
00:06:05You, come on!
00:06:08Come on, you!
00:06:09Do you have help?
00:06:10No!
00:06:11Come on!
00:06:12Stop!
00:06:13You, come on!
00:06:14Come on!
00:06:16No!
00:06:17No!
00:06:18No!
00:06:19No!
00:06:20Oh!
00:06:21Oh!
00:06:22What a boy!
00:06:23No!
00:06:24No!
00:06:25No!
00:06:26No!
00:06:27No!
00:06:28No!
00:06:29No!
00:06:30No!
00:06:31No!
00:06:32Oh, my God.
00:07:02Come on.
00:07:20Come on, Willi.
00:07:29What's the matter, Willi?
00:07:30Come on, Willi!
00:07:31Come on!
00:09:33And so the curse of Sir Hugo came upon the Baskervilles...
00:09:43...in the shape of a hound from hell...
00:09:46...forever to bring misfortune to the Baskerville family.
00:09:49And so the curse of Sir Hugo came upon the Baskervilles...
00:09:55...in the shape of a hound from hell...
00:09:58...forever to bring misfortune to the Baskerville family.
00:10:01Therefore take heed...
00:10:03...and beware the moor in those dark hours...
00:10:07...when evil is exalted...
00:10:09...else you will surely meet...
00:10:11...the hound of hell...
00:10:13...the hound of the Baskervilles.
00:10:15So ends the legend.
00:10:19And what may I ask...
00:10:21...do you think of that, Mr. Holmes?
00:10:25Ah!
00:10:35There must be hundreds of similar folk stories...
00:10:37...I fail to see why I should find this one of single interest.
00:10:40What do you say, Watson?
00:10:42Well, I'm sure Dr. Mortimer's intentions are for the best...
00:10:47...but there seems little to be gained from what he's told us.
00:10:50I had hoped, sir...
00:10:52...that the facts I have laid before you...
00:10:54...might have intrigued you as a detective.
00:10:56I was obviously mistaken.
00:10:58Good lady, sir.
00:11:00Dr. Mortimer, there was something more important...
00:11:02...that brought you all the way from Devonshire to Baker Street.
00:11:05Something that occurred on Dartmoor on Friday the 13th of June.
00:11:08You've known about it all the time, then?
00:11:11I know nothing...
00:11:12...except that you live on Dartmoor...
00:11:14...that you have a copy of the Devon County Chronicle...
00:11:16...in your briefcase dated June the 14th.
00:11:18That newspaper is published on Saturdays...
00:11:20...but goes to press on Thursdays.
00:11:21You've kept it for something vitally important.
00:11:23There is nothing of particular interest in the headlines...
00:11:25...therefore it must be in the stock press.
00:11:27So, whatever it was happened on the Friday...
00:11:30...Friday the 13th of June.
00:11:32But this is remarkable.
00:11:33Superficial.
00:11:34There's nothing remarkable about using one's eyes.
00:11:37Now, sir, would you be prepared to give us the relevant facts?
00:11:41Ah, yes.
00:11:42Yes, under the circumstances, I think I would.
00:11:44Proceed.
00:11:46Well, this is just the stock press.
00:11:49Devonshire Knight found dead.
00:11:51The body of Sir Charles Baskerville...
00:11:53...discovered on Dartmoor early today.
00:11:55Foul play not suspected.
00:11:57Of course, the account in the next edition is much fuller.
00:12:00Where are we?
00:12:02Yes, here we are.
00:12:04The death of Sir Charles Baskerville has caused much sadness...
00:12:07...in the small village of Grimpen, Dartmoor.
00:12:09Dr. Richard Mortimer, a well-known Devonshire personality...
00:12:12...said today that...
00:12:13If you'll pardon me, Dr. Mortimer, I want just the plain facts...
00:12:17...in your own words.
00:12:19Please.
00:12:21Very well.
00:12:23The plain facts of the matter are...
00:12:25...that a fortnight ago, Sir Charles Baskerville was found lying dead on the moor.
00:12:30Who found him?
00:12:31His servant, Barrymore.
00:12:33He and his wife are housekeepers up at Baskerville Hall.
00:12:36He fetched me at once and took me straight back to the body.
00:12:39Where was the body?
00:12:40Somewhere on Dartmoor, I know, but exactly where?
00:12:42It's a very large place.
00:12:43Near the abbey ruins up on the hill, not far from Baskerville Hall.
00:12:47The place where Sir Hugo died in the legend.
00:12:50And the circumstances were exactly the same.
00:12:53You mean that Sir Charles had been attacked?
00:12:56That his throat had been torn out?
00:12:58Oh, no, no, no.
00:12:59No, the body was untouched.
00:13:01But his face...
00:13:04Never in all my medical career have I seen such a look of horror on a dead person.
00:13:09Sir Charles must have been terrified when he died.
00:13:13But he was alone.
00:13:15The strange thing was, there were no footprints, Mr. Holmes.
00:13:20That cannot be quite true, can it?
00:13:22They were the servant Barrymore's, for instance?
00:13:24Your own and Sir Charles's?
00:13:25Oh, yes, of course.
00:13:26But what I meant to say was, there were no other footprints.
00:13:30Facts are only of value when they're clear, concise and correct, Dr. Mortimer.
00:13:33Pray continue.
00:13:34And there was another strange thing.
00:13:37Sir Charles must have been tiptoeing back to Baskerville Hall when he died.
00:13:42I could tell that because the footmark showed only the toes of his boots.
00:13:46There were no heel marks.
00:13:48I'm something of an archaeologist in my spare time, and so I'm used to looking for the extraordinary.
00:13:53You have not yet told us what Sir Charles died of before you do so.
00:13:57I suggest it was heart failure.
00:13:59Well, the inquest found that he died of arteriosclerosis, with disease of the coronary arteries.
00:14:06A condition of the heart that can lead to heart failure.
00:14:12Yes, I think it must be hereditary with the Baskervilles.
00:14:15They all seem to suffer from the same weakness.
00:14:18Is there a successor to the family title?
00:14:20Yes, Sir Henry Baskerville.
00:14:23He's due to arrive in London tonight from Johannesburg.
00:14:28Why have you come to me, Dr. Mortimer, when you really don't believe that I can help you?
00:14:33I don't think I know what you mean.
00:14:35I think you do.
00:14:37Excuse me.
00:14:40Although you knew Sir Charles died of natural causes,
00:14:42you've implied that he met a more horrible death,
00:14:44than he might have encountered this hound of hell, the curse of the Baskervilles.
00:14:48Do you really believe that legend?
00:14:50There are many things in life and death that we do not understand, Mr. Holmes.
00:14:54Then I suggest you might have done better to have consulted a priest instead of a detective.
00:14:58Do you imagine that I can influence the powers of darkness?
00:15:01Of course not.
00:15:02But I thought you might prevent Sir Henry from going into danger.
00:15:05My dear sir, it's an evil curse on the family.
00:15:07It can be just as powerful in London as in Devonshire.
00:15:10Where believe he's staying?
00:15:11At the Northumberland Hotel.
00:15:13Does this mean, then, that you will investigate the matter?
00:15:16I have not said so. My commitments are heavy.
00:15:19I beg of you, Mr. Holmes. This is a matter of life and death.
00:15:22Well, there can be no harm done by my seeing the man.
00:15:25Shall we say 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, at the hotel?
00:15:29Good. That will suit admirably.
00:15:31Thank you, Mr. Holmes.
00:15:33You will not find me ungenerous in the matter of fees.
00:15:37My professional charges are upon a fixed scale.
00:15:40I do not vary them except when I remit them altogether.
00:15:44Good day.
00:15:46Good day, Mr. Holmes.
00:15:50Thank you, Doctor.
00:15:52Not at all, Doctor.
00:15:58Good day, Dr. Watson.
00:16:00Well, I must say, you never cease to surprise me, Holmes.
00:16:06First you tear the man apart, and then you say that you'll help him.
00:16:09Dear Watson, you ought to know me better by now.
00:16:11I had to burst the balloon, deflect the man's pomposity,
00:16:13to find one significant clue.
00:16:15Well, I saw nothing of significance in anything he said.
00:16:18I'm surprised you bothered with the man.
00:16:20Nevertheless, one important point did emerge.
00:16:22Didn't you notice anything odd in what he told us?
00:16:24Well, anything odd I noticed was when he said that Sir Charles was tiptoeing about Dartmoor
00:16:29in the middle of the night.
00:16:30That's just it, Watson.
00:16:31Well done, my boy.
00:16:32But he wasn't tiptoeing.
00:16:33He was running.
00:16:34Running for his life.
00:16:36Running in panic until he burst his heart.
00:16:39Now, would you mind sorting out a large-scale method of Dartmoor, my dear fellow,
00:16:42while I find some more tobacco?
00:16:43This, I think, is a two-pipe problem.
00:16:54Come in.
00:16:57So you finally managed to get here?
00:17:02I was not aware that we had kept you.
00:17:05Kept me?
00:17:06I sent for you over 20 minutes ago.
00:17:08Well, I think, perhaps, you've made a mistake.
00:17:12Yes, I've made a mistake, all right.
00:17:13The mistake I made was in ever coming to this hotel.
00:17:15What have you been able to find out about my other boot?
00:17:18They were both here when I put them out to be cleaned last night.
00:17:21But nobody knows.
00:17:22Porter, the maid, the boot boy.
00:17:24Nobody in this hotel of yours knows where the other one's gone to.
00:17:28You're the manager.
00:17:30Perhaps you'll be good enough to tell me just what you do with all your boots.
00:17:33I'm a few minutes later, I'm afraid.
00:17:35Those confounded horse buses.
00:17:37However, I see you both made each other's acquaintance,
00:17:40so we might as well get down to business, eh?
00:17:42We have not yet been given an opportunity to introduce ourselves.
00:17:45Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:17:46Please let me.
00:17:47Sir Henry, let me introduce Mr. Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson.
00:17:51Sir Henry Baskerville.
00:17:53I'm afraid you're a little late, Mortimer.
00:17:55I've already managed to make quite a fool of myself.
00:18:00Gentlemen, I must ask you to accept my apologies.
00:18:02Dr. Watson, Mr. Holmes.
00:18:04How do you do?
00:18:05Very glad to meet you both.
00:18:06I'm sorry if I've embarrassed you.
00:18:07Please say no more about it.
00:18:08It was quite understandable.
00:18:09Yes, indeed.
00:18:10I hope that the missing boots will turn up very soon.
00:18:14So do I.
00:18:15I can understand somebody wanting to steal a pair of boots, but one...
00:18:19Well, there it is.
00:18:21Please sit down, gentlemen.
00:18:22Oh, thank you.
00:18:25Now, Mr. Holmes.
00:18:26Dr. Mortimer has no doubt explained why he's asked us to come here.
00:18:30He has, and I may as well tell you I consider him to have been somewhat hasty in asking for your advice.
00:18:36Oh, I'm sure it was only to protect your interests.
00:18:39He has told you of the legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles.
00:18:42Yes, but I don't attach any importance to that sort of old wives' tale.
00:18:45A man out of my own heart.
00:18:48You intend to go down to Devonshire and live at Baskerville Hall?
00:18:51I've already come a very long way, Mr. Holmes, to do exactly that, and nothing is going to stop me.
00:18:55You can understand that, surely.
00:18:57I can indeed.
00:18:58The estate must be worth a vast amount of money.
00:19:00Exactly how much, Dr. Mortimer?
00:19:02You will forgive me if I ask what may seem a very personal question.
00:19:05Of course.
00:19:06Well?
00:19:07Well, when everything's settled up, I suppose, close on a million pounds.
00:19:12Did anyone else benefit under Sir Charles's will?
00:19:15Yes.
00:19:16He left the Barrymores a thousand pounds, which I thought was rather too generous.
00:19:21And I myself received something.
00:19:23How much?
00:19:24Come, Mr. Holmes, is this really necessary?
00:19:26I would not have asked otherwise.
00:19:29Very well.
00:19:30He left me 40,000 pounds.
00:19:33But then you see, I was Sir Charles's best friend.
00:19:36Were there no other relatives?
00:19:38No.
00:19:39Sir Henry is the last of the Baskervilles.
00:19:42That's why I'm so anxious to safeguard his interests.
00:19:45Oh, very wise of you.
00:19:47One thing is certain, Sir Henry.
00:19:49On no account must you go down to Devonshire alone.
00:19:51Oh, that's all taken care of.
00:19:52Dr. Mortimer's coming with me.
00:19:54Dr. Mortimer will have his practices to attend to.
00:19:57I can look after myself, Mr. Holmes.
00:19:59I must impress upon you that I believe your life to be in some considerable danger.
00:20:04Now, look, Mr. Holmes, if you attach so much importance to this,
00:20:07why don't you come down to Dartmoor with me today?
00:20:09We can pack a bag before the train leaves.
00:20:11You're going today?
00:20:12I can't possibly leave town until the end of the week, at least.
00:20:16Watson.
00:20:17You're free at the moment, aren't you?
00:20:20Well, yes, I am.
00:20:22If you'll think I could do the job.
00:20:24You're the very man for it.
00:20:25That's settled, then.
00:20:26You'll go down with them.
00:20:27We'll keep in touch by telegram.
00:20:29Sir Henry.
00:20:31I am not a man to overestimate danger,
00:20:33but I must insist upon one thing.
00:20:35Under no circumstances are you to venture out onto the moor alone at night.
00:20:43Oh, very well.
00:20:44As things have gone as far as this, I'll do as you say for the moment.
00:20:47But I'm not yet convinced that I need the services of a detective at all.
00:20:51Unless it helped me find my other boots.
00:20:56Sir Henry, keep perfectly still if you value your life.
00:21:02Move your head, carefully.
00:21:15Move your head carefully.
00:21:28I can't.
00:21:31You must.
00:21:45Leave it to me now, Holmes.
00:21:51No!
00:21:52Look after him.
00:21:53Grab him, Montmore, quick.
00:21:58Here you are.
00:22:03What do those things?
00:22:06Horrible.
00:22:07You've had a lucky escape, but we must make certain never to be caught with our guard again.
00:22:12You're suggesting that that thing was put in there deliberately?
00:22:16The powers of evil can take many forms.
00:22:19Remember that, Sir Henry, when you're at Baskerville Hall.
00:22:22Do as the legend tells and avoid them more when the forces of darkness are exalted.
00:22:42I'll be there.
00:22:45The
00:22:46Hover!
00:22:47Are you sure you don't want us to take you into the village, Mortimer?
00:22:52Quite sure.
00:22:53It'll only take you out of your way, whereas it's only a short walk across the maw.
00:22:55You'd be better off to go along with us, Doctor.
00:22:56Kindly wait until you're spoken to, Perkins, and get on with what you're doing.
00:23:00Whatever you say, Sir.
00:23:01But don't blame me if you get your throat cut.
00:23:03What are you talking about, man?
00:23:05get on with what you're doing whatever you say sir don't blame me if you get your throat cut
00:23:10what are you talking about man there's been an escape an escape when night before last
00:23:15man named selden nasty customer from all accounts what's all this about mortimer oh forgive me sir
00:23:21henry you wouldn't know about it one of our largest prisons commonly called dartmoor lies
00:23:26only seven miles across the moor it appears that one of the prisoners has broken out selden yes i
00:23:33remember the case he murdered a number of street women i thought you hanged people for murder in
00:23:39this country oh there was some talk of him being insane so they sentenced him to life imprisonment
00:23:44instead won't do him no good though sir escaping he'll only starve himself to death out there
00:23:50or something worse what do you mean by that why not nothing sir just my foolishness
00:23:58i feel you should let us take you into the village mortimer he might be anywhere out there
00:24:02don't you worry about me i can look after myself goodbye goodbye all right perkins here
00:24:20curse upon the family unhappiness and death to his descendants
00:24:24that's what he left sir henry certainly has a lot to answer for
00:24:28what about this one here that was another picture of sir hugo he disappeared under mysterious
00:24:36circumstances some months back you mean it was stolen in the middle of the night
00:24:40and what steps were taken to recover it when your uncle called in the police from exeter
00:24:45but they could find no trace
00:24:49well one picture of that scoundrel is more than enough what do you say watson
00:24:53mm-hmm oh your glass is empty please no you must be bored to tears by all this rigmarole about my
00:25:00family you must think me a terrible host oh not at all not at all i found it extremely interesting
00:25:06have you well it's very nice of you to say sir barrymore sir would you and your good wife care to join
00:25:12me in a toast it's most kind of you sir henry
00:25:19it is drink to my first day at baskerville hall
00:25:23and to my firm belief that the family curse is nothing but a legend
00:25:28and that the hound of hell will never again bring fear to those on the moor at night
00:25:43i must ask you to excuse my wife's behavior sir henry she was most upset by sir charles's death
00:25:49her nerves have been in a bad way ever since i'm very sorry to hear that barrymore
00:25:53watson you can give her something for her nerves can't you yes yes of course i will oh barrymore
00:26:01since you've mentioned sir charles's death perhaps you could tell us a little more about it
00:26:04you were the first to discover the body weren't you and that's correct it was terrible sir i never
00:26:12saw such a dreadful look on anybody's face before you found sir charles's body up near the old abbey
00:26:20i understand what made you go up there to look for him i didn't sir i was on my way to tell dr
00:26:26mortimer that he was missing and then i then i saw sir charles lying there dead
00:26:33but what made you decide to go across the moor to look for sir charles
00:26:38i've had a look at a map of the locality and surely it would have been quicker for you to have taken
00:26:43the trap and gone by road there's a shortcut across the moor sir barrymore
00:26:48did you go across the moor because you were half expecting to find sir charles there because of the
00:26:55legend well you know about the legend of the hound of the baskervilles don't you do you believe it
00:27:04do you really believe that there is a creature out there i don't know what to believe sir
00:27:12all i know is that i've heard it heard its terrible howl on the night before sir charles died
00:27:18and i never want to hear such a sound again in all my life
00:27:48oh
00:28:12oh
00:28:18Oh, my God.
00:28:48Can I help you, sir?
00:29:01Oh, no, thank you, no, thank you.
00:29:03It's gone away.
00:29:04Oh, damn it, I could have done with that.
00:29:06It's an excellent specimen of Coleopterus capers.
00:29:09I collect them, you know.
00:29:12Why, it's Henry, eh?
00:29:14It is?
00:29:14Yeah, the Baskerville mouth.
00:29:16I could have recognized you anywhere, even among the natives.
00:29:20Now, Sir, Franklin is the name.
00:29:22Franklin, Bishop of the Outer Isles, for what they're worth.
00:29:27Very glad to meet you, sir.
00:29:29Won't you come in?
00:29:36Yes, how good, how very good to see a new owner of Baskerville Hall, eh?
00:29:43Oh, well, no, that's, uh, well, that's not quite what I meant, poor Sir Charles.
00:29:49Oh, what a splendid fellow he was.
00:29:52So you knew my uncle?
00:29:54Knew him, my dear fellow?
00:29:55We were the greatest friends.
00:29:57How many times Sir Charles and I have discussed life, you know?
00:30:01Yeah.
00:30:01Over, over, a glass of sherry.
00:30:06Well, in that case, Bishop, perhaps you'd care to join me in a glass of sherry now.
00:30:09Now, you mention sherry.
00:30:12I, I think perhaps I might like a glass.
00:30:15I saw Bishop Frank Clones coming up the drive, Sir Henry.
00:30:18Very well.
00:30:19Oh, still the faithful retainer, eh?
00:30:22Oh.
00:30:23Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:30:27Are you, Sir Henry?
00:30:28I think it very well.
00:30:30You know, it's the best sherry in Devon.
00:30:32I always say, oh, Sir Charles knew his creature comforts all right.
00:30:35I've seen him with some very attractive creatures at times.
00:30:39Yes, he knew a woman when he saw one, did Sir Charles?
00:30:43Oh, yes, poor fellow.
00:30:47Will he rest in peace?
00:30:49What a loss.
00:30:50Oh, thank you.
00:30:53Do you know, I think I should like another glass, yes.
00:30:56Oh, Watson, I don't think you've met the bishop.
00:30:59Mr. Franklin, Dr. Watson.
00:31:01How do you do, huh?
00:31:03Watson, you say the name is?
00:31:05Yes, well, I knew a Watson in Caprina.
00:31:07Yes, a notorious white slave.
00:31:09A nice fellow, though.
00:31:10A relation of yours?
00:31:12No, sir.
00:31:13Not that I know of.
00:31:14But, of course, it is possible.
00:31:16Oh, you've come to approve the new lord of the manor, I imagine.
00:31:20I think that's necessary.
00:31:22But why have I come?
00:31:24I, oh, yes, of course, the jumble sale.
00:31:27Jumble sale?
00:31:27What on earth is this?
00:31:28Oh, it's a colloquial expression, Sir Henry.
00:31:31It's, well, a sale of oddments, Sir Henry.
00:31:32I mean, I was wondering if you had anything you could spare for us, an odd tablecloth or
00:31:37an old suit or some, well, cast-off silver.
00:31:41I'm quite sure I cannot ask Mrs. Barrymore.
00:31:42Well, that's very kind of you.
00:31:44May I, may I give you the address in which you could, uh, have them sent?
00:31:49I'm, I'm sure we shall all be very grateful to you, very grateful indeed, yeah, if you'd
00:31:55have, have them sent there.
00:31:56And I shan't apologize for the chat, it's really rather charming.
00:32:02All things bright and beautiful.
00:32:06Well, uh, I'm just going down to the village to leave some instructions at the post office,
00:32:10Sir Henry, if you'll excuse me, my lord bishop.
00:32:13Oh, dear fellow, of course, I'll give you a lift on the tricycle, but I want to chat with
00:32:16Sir Henry.
00:32:18Goodbye.
00:32:19Goodbye.
00:32:20I'm afraid you'll be expected to open the sales for Henry, yes, and judge the prettiest
00:32:25mother and baby.
00:32:26Do you know, dear old Sir Charles, he loved doing that, yeah, he did, he did, he, yes.
00:32:31I remember one occasion when, uh, when one of the babies went, oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.
00:32:56Don't move.
00:33:11Stay where you are.
00:33:26I said not to move, sir.
00:33:36You've no call to use that kind of trap.
00:33:38It's unnecessarily cruel.
00:33:39No man's got to live, sir.
00:33:41Other ways of killing animals without torturing them.
00:33:43Why don't you use a gun?
00:33:48Oh.
00:33:50I'm sorry.
00:33:51Besides, cottages cost money.
00:33:53Some of us haven't got much of that to spend.
00:33:55It's a poor life on the moor, Sir Henry.
00:33:56I'm afraid you've made a mistake.
00:33:59My name is Watson, though I am staying at Baskerville Hall.
00:34:02With Sir Henry?
00:34:03Yes.
00:34:05When you see the new squire, tell him his new neighbor would like to meet him.
00:34:08I farm the lower partures near the hall.
00:34:10Have done for nearly a year.
00:34:12Poor land it is, too.
00:34:14What name is it?
00:34:15Stapleton.
00:34:17Very well.
00:34:18I'll tell Sir Henry.
00:34:19I wonder, could you tell me how to get to Baskerville Hall?
00:34:23I seem to have lost my way.
00:34:25You bear right at the fork.
00:34:28Oh, thank you.
00:34:29Mr. Watson, don't step off the track or you'll find yourself in Gripenmire.
00:34:34Once in there, you'll never get out.
00:34:37Hmm.
00:34:45Good morning.
00:35:09I wonder, could you tell me, am I on the right path to Baskerville Hall?
00:35:13Well, the track seems to end here.
00:35:24Hey!
00:35:25Watch out!
00:35:26The mire!
00:35:36Hey!

00:40:20What's in here?
00:40:47Move the candle about, quickly.
00:40:50I'll swear I saw a light out there on the moor as soon as you picked up the candle.
00:40:57There's someone out there signaling to the house.
00:40:59Come on.
00:40:59Whatever happens, Sir Henry, you must stay with me.
00:41:14We're still in line with the light.
00:41:33Yes, but we're not near enough yet.
00:41:35Keep close to me.
00:41:36Don't go off to the left or you'll be in Grimpenmire.
00:41:49Right.
00:41:51Come on.
00:41:51Come out.
00:41:58We're on.
00:42:02They're gone.
00:42:02Whoever they are, they must have heard us.
00:42:10Watson!
00:42:12Come on.
00:42:13There's still no chance.
00:42:14He's down there somewhere.
00:42:28He's down there somewhere.
00:42:41What was that, Watson?
00:42:42What was that?
00:42:44There's my heart.
00:42:55Bring some of this.
00:42:56Will you be able to get back if I help you?
00:43:07I'll try.
00:43:08Come on, then.
00:43:20That is for me to decide, Sir Henry.
00:43:22I suggest that you have a little rest.
00:43:25Good night.
00:43:25Good night.
00:43:32I really don't know why he bothered to send from me once.
00:43:35After all, as a doctor, you're just as capable as I am.
00:43:39Does your diagnosis confirm mine?
00:43:42He has a similar heart condition to his uncle, agreed.
00:43:45Hereditary, no doubt.
00:43:46But nowhere near so far advanced.
00:43:48All the same, I'd like to leave him in your charge until I get back.
00:43:53If you insist.
00:43:54Anyway, my night's sleep is ruined.
00:43:56But I really can't see that it's necessary.
00:43:59Nevertheless, I'd appreciate it if you would stay.
00:44:01It's essential that I go back to the moor.
00:44:04All right.
00:44:05I'll stay.
00:44:08All right.
00:45:14Why have you left Sir Henry alone?
00:45:20Holmes.
00:45:21I repeat.
00:45:22Why have you left Sir Henry alone?
00:45:24Dr. Mortimer is with him.
00:45:26Anyone else?
00:45:27Yes, the Barrymores.
00:45:30Very well, then.
00:45:31Forgive me if my dramatic entrance startled you.
00:45:34Well, it's good to see you again, Watson.
00:45:35It's been rather lonely up here.
00:45:37This is fantastic.
00:45:39How long have you been in Devon?
00:45:40Exactly four hours and 52 minutes less than you.
00:45:43I caught the next train down after yours.
00:45:45But your telegram.
00:45:47I wrote that before I left town and arranged to have it delivered later.
00:45:50So it was you I saw.
00:45:52Well, I think you might have let me know what you intended to do, Holmes.
00:45:55I'm sorry, Watson.
00:45:56But I didn't want it known I was here.
00:45:58Besides, you would have tried to prevent me.
00:45:59You will understand.
00:46:00I had to find Selden.
00:46:02Selden?
00:46:03A convict?
00:46:04Well, that was madness.
00:46:05No doubt.
00:46:05A defectual.
00:46:07But how did you know he was on the moor?
00:46:09I read about it in the newspapers, Watson.
00:46:11The escape was well reported.
00:46:13I'm surprised you didn't notice it.
00:46:14He told me all he had seen since he's been hiding.
00:46:17Well, what had he seen?
00:46:18What did he tell you?
00:46:20There is more evil around us here
00:46:22than I have ever encountered before.
00:46:26Well, I still don't see...
00:46:27More than me.
00:46:49Mortimer's gone.
00:46:50His pony car's not there.
00:46:52You told him to stay, Sir Henry.
00:46:54Well, indeed I did.
00:46:57Which way?
00:47:11For heaven's sake, which way?
00:47:24Too late.
00:47:26We're too late.
00:47:27Sir Henry.
00:47:30Watch out, Holmes.
00:47:31His treacherous here.
00:47:33We must go back and get help,
00:47:35and then come back for the body.
00:47:37I'm to blame for this.
00:47:39I shall never forgive myself.
00:47:41I warned him.
00:47:43What good have possessed him to come out alone in the maw?
00:47:46The last of the Basquefills.
00:47:49His life was in our hands.
00:47:50I shall not rest until I destroy the thing that killed him.
00:48:05You're Barrymore, I take it.
00:48:26Yes, sir.
00:48:26Yes, sir.
00:48:30Barrymore, I want you to get a letter, some rope and lanterns,
00:48:33and have them loaded on the cart within five minutes.
00:48:35Do you understand?
00:48:37Yes, sir.
00:48:38Good.
00:48:38Watson, where's your room?
00:48:39Oh, this way.
00:48:40I'll show you.
00:48:41You'll have those a day to do, will you?
00:48:44Very good, sir.
00:48:47I'll trouble you for a pair of dry stout boots and a heavy coat
00:48:49before we go out again.
00:48:50Yes, of course.
00:48:52You know, Holmes,
00:48:53I can't help feeling that if I hadn't gone out and left Sir Henry alone...
00:48:57We'd to avenge his death, not mourn over it.
00:48:59No.
00:48:59No.
00:49:00No.
00:49:00No.
00:49:04No.
00:49:04No.
00:49:04No.
00:49:05No.
00:49:29Who's there?
00:49:41Holmes, for heaven's sake, when did you get here?
00:49:44I am glad to see you again.
00:49:46I am more than glad to see you, Sir Henry.
00:49:50Who was it, Holmes?
00:49:52Who was the poor devil that died instead of me?
00:49:55Well, if my deductions are correct,
00:49:57it was the convict Selden.
00:49:59The fellow was a murderer, I know,
00:50:01but he shouldn't have died in such a fashion.
00:50:02Yes, but why him?
00:50:04The curse is only on the Baskervilles.
00:50:05There's no one safe from the hound.
00:50:06Selden had on the suit of clothes you were wearing
00:50:08when we first met in London.
00:50:09How did he get them?
00:50:10He must have broken them and stolen them, I suppose.
00:50:12Possibly. It's unlikely.
00:50:14Sir Henry, why did Dr. Mortimer leave so suddenly tonight?
00:50:18He told me that he'd stay until I got back.
00:50:21Stupid row, really.
00:50:23He kept on about my uncle's death
00:50:25and the curse on the family,
00:50:26and, well, I asked him if he was trying to frighten me
00:50:29and told him to mind his own business.
00:50:31I'd like a few words with Dr. Mortimer sometime.
00:50:33Excuse me, Sir Henry.
00:50:35Is there anything else you'll be requiring?
00:50:36No, thank you, Barrymore. Not as far as I'm concerned.
00:50:39Have you prepared a room for Mr. Holmes?
00:50:40Yes, sir.
00:50:41Will you still be needing the ladder and rope
00:50:43you asked for tonight, sir?
00:50:45No, not now.
00:50:47But I shall want them and your help first thing in the morning.
00:50:50Very good, sir.
00:50:50Well, Barrymore, sir,
00:50:52that room at the end of the corridor upstairs,
00:50:55has it been used lately?
00:51:01Not for some time, sir.
00:51:03I see.
00:51:04I think you'll find a candle burning near the window in that room.
00:51:07Would you kindly extinguish it?
00:51:09It's serving no useful purpose.
00:51:11Very good, sir.
00:51:19And now, with your permission, to bed.
00:51:22Yes.
00:51:23Yes, we can all do with a good night's sleep.
00:51:31And this, I perceive, is Sir Hugo Baskerville,
00:51:34the man who started all the trouble.
00:51:36Yes, it is.
00:51:37How the devil did you know?
00:51:38Oh, with family likeness, there are certain features that are unmistakable.
00:51:42What happened to the picture that hung here?
00:51:44That one?
00:51:45Nobody knows. It disappeared some time ago.
00:51:47Oh, yes.
00:51:48Yes, of course, it had to.
00:51:50Stupid of me.
00:51:52Yes, well, good night.
00:52:01Oh, that's strange.
00:52:03There's nothing there.
00:52:04I could have sworn that that was the spot.
00:52:06Well, it must be more ever this way.
00:52:10No, Watson.
00:52:11You were right.
00:52:12This was the place.
00:52:13Look at this.
00:52:17Here's another trace.
00:52:19And another.
00:52:23You can see where they're leading to.
00:52:24Barrymore.
00:52:29Sir?
00:52:30Tell Perkins of him in the cart up to the ruins as near as he can,
00:52:33then you follow us.
00:52:33Yes, sir.
00:52:34We won't find the body down here.
00:52:35Yes, sir.
00:52:35We won't find the body down here.
00:52:35Yes, sir.
00:52:35We won't find the body down here.
00:52:37We won't find the body down here.
00:53:07I haven't thought what's been going on here, Holmes.
00:53:24The Baskerville crest engraved on the hilt.
00:53:27Mr. Holmes!
00:53:28As I thought, seldom, this body's been mutilated.
00:53:44Some revolting sacrificial rite has been performed.
00:53:49What depths a human being can sink to.
00:53:52What human being could have done this?
00:53:54That is precisely what I intend to find out.
00:54:10You rang for me, sir?
00:54:12I did, Mrs. Barrymore. Sit down, please.
00:54:14No, thank you, sir. I'd prefer to stand.
00:54:16As you wish.
00:54:17I want to ask you and your husband a few questions, if you don't mind.
00:54:21How long have you been married?
00:54:22Married?
00:54:24Must be almost five years now, isn't it?
00:54:26Is that right, Miss Selden?
00:54:28Yes, sir. We got married about...
00:54:34Please, sit down.
00:54:38Your name was Selden before you married, wasn't it?
00:54:41And the convict who escaped was your brother?
00:54:43How did you know?
00:54:45Your brother told me.
00:54:47He's dead, sir, isn't he?
00:54:49Yes, I'm afraid he is.
00:54:51How did it happen?
00:54:52You gave Selden some of Sir Henry's clothes, didn't you?
00:54:55Well, I...
00:54:56Someone, or something, who stook your brother for Sir Henry.
00:55:01You mustn't blame my husband, sir.
00:55:03I gave him the clothes.
00:55:04Sir Henry said I might take them for the village sale.
00:55:07But why should they have them when my brother was out on the moor, cold and hungry?
00:55:12Oh, I, I, I know he was bad, sir, but he was ill, really.
00:55:21And he was my brother.
00:55:22And you can't leave someone you love out there cold and starving.
00:55:28I understand.
00:55:29It might help you to know he also told me he would never let them recapture him alive.
00:55:34Well, I suppose when Sir Henry and I arrived here at the hall, she found it difficult to get food to her brother.
00:55:54Yes, they had to arrange a signal with a candle at the window to show when the coast was clear.
00:55:57Hmm.
00:55:58Couldn't, uh, couldn't they be charged with helping an escaped convict?
00:56:02They could, but they won't.
00:56:04I've satisfied the local police.
00:56:06Hmm.
00:56:08Well, what's the next move?
00:56:10All things bright and beautiful or creatures great and small.
00:56:14I wonder if that includes tarantulas.
00:56:17Tarantulas?
00:56:19But harams?
00:56:20A gentleman to see you, my lord.
00:56:28Oh, good, good.
00:56:29And just in time.
00:56:31I, I'm still having trouble with it, you know.
00:56:34We'll come and have a look at it.
00:56:35Of course, I, I'm not an engineering man, but it seems to me that this eccentric is mal-aligned.
00:56:41Oh, oh, or perhaps if this can were buffed to another thou or so, it might make all the difference, don't you think?
00:56:47Or perhaps a shim?
00:56:50Graphite grease.
00:56:51What?
00:56:52Oh, of course, yeah.
00:56:54Well, I have, I have got some.
00:56:56Do you know, I never thought of it.
00:56:58Allow me.
00:56:59Oh, thank you.
00:57:04Here.
00:57:04Silly of me.
00:57:07Here.
00:57:08There you are, you'll want that.
00:57:10Yeah.
00:57:11Now, now, let's see.
00:57:13Oh, wonderful, wonderful.
00:57:16Oh, that's done the trick, yeah.
00:57:19I wish Mrs. Goodlip would leave those windows alone all the month.
00:57:23Now, take a glass of sherry before you go.
00:57:26Bishop Franklin, I...
00:57:27Oh, nonsense, a little wine for your stomach's sake.
00:57:30That's in the Bible.
00:57:31Now, I think you'll like this.
00:57:33Now, what do I owe you for your trouble and your affair from Exeter, of course?
00:57:37My lord, I think you've mistaken me for someone else.
00:57:39Oh, no.
00:57:40Only somebody from Warburton and Crawley could have solved that problem.
00:57:44Nevertheless, I am not for Warburton and Crawley.
00:57:47Not?
00:57:48My name is Sherlock Holmes.
00:57:49I am staying with Sir Henry Baskerville.
00:57:51Oh, allow me to shake the hand of the country's greatest detective.
00:57:55I say, that case of the Bermondsey forgery, that was a first-class piece of work.
00:58:00And I am pleased to shake the hand of the country's most distinguished entomologist.
00:58:03You've heard of me?
00:58:04Oh, a flattery.
00:58:06I know the directors of the Regent's Park Zoo regard you as the highest living authority on the study of rare spiders.
00:58:13Spiders?
00:58:14And it is about that very subject that I've come to see you.
00:58:17The species of the genus theraphosa.
00:58:19Oh, tarantula.
00:58:21Oh, dear me.
00:58:23Everybody's asking me about tarantulas these days.
00:58:26I...
00:58:27Oh, no, I...
00:58:29Fred, I can't help you on that subject.
00:58:32How very disappointing.
00:58:34Because I found one.
00:58:36Found one?
00:58:37Have you, by jove?
00:58:38Dead, fortunately.
00:58:40Oh, pity.
00:58:42Never mind.
00:58:43Where did you find it?
00:58:44Somewhere about the village, though, that?
00:58:46No, in London.
00:58:48Oh, up there.
00:58:49Nevertheless, it...
00:58:50It was the same spider that you lost.
00:58:52Oh, impossible.
00:58:53Far too far away.
00:58:57Are you suggesting that I've lost a spider?
00:59:00I'm afraid I am.
00:59:02You have, haven't you?
00:59:03You lost a spider sent you from the London Zoo about five days ago.
00:59:08Yeah.
00:59:08Are you interested in butterflies?
00:59:10My lord, I must insist.
00:59:13Will it help if I tell you I am fighting evil?
00:59:15Fighting it as surely as you do.
00:59:16Oh, yes, very well.
00:59:19I...
00:59:20I did lose the tarantula.
00:59:22I missed it last Thursday.
00:59:24I've been worried out of my life ever since.
00:59:26They're dangerous, you know.
00:59:27So I understand.
00:59:28But you needn't worry any longer.
00:59:29The spider is dead.
00:59:30Now, it is important that you answer this question correctly.
00:59:34What visitors did you have on the day you missed the tarantula?
00:59:38Visitors?
00:59:38Well, that's difficult because Thursday's my atone day.
00:59:43I mean, a lot of people like to look in for a sherry and a chat.
00:59:47Let me see.
00:59:47There was old Mrs. Smythe.
00:59:50Poor woman.
00:59:51Drinks.
00:59:51Oh, yes.
00:59:52Dr. Mortimer before lunch.
00:59:55Oh, dear old Mortimer, how he talks.
00:59:58Uh, the Stapletons to tea.
01:00:01Uh, oh, yes.
01:00:02The man about the woodworm in the belfry.
01:00:06Uh, fascinating little creatures.
01:00:08But the church is full of them, you know.
01:00:10I'm extremely sorry to hear that.
01:00:11And the man's name?
01:00:12Smith, I think.
01:00:13And no one else?
01:00:15Last Thursday?
01:00:16No.
01:00:16Thank you, my lord bishop.
01:00:18That is all I wish to know.
01:00:19It has been most kind of you and most helpful.
01:00:21And thank you for helping me with my telescope.
01:00:24Not at all.
01:00:26Oh, remarkable instrument.
01:00:27It's surprising what you can see through a good telescope.
01:00:31Now, what's going on in the big world?
01:00:36There, there, Sir Henry.
01:00:37Where's he off to?
01:00:40Oh, dear me, that's...
01:00:41This is very interesting.
01:00:44Have a look.
01:00:46Come on, come on, come here, come on, have a look.
01:00:51Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
01:01:21Why did you come here?
01:01:33I'm sorry. You must think me very rude.
01:01:36But I did knock.
01:01:38I've come to see your father.
01:01:39He's not here. He's gone to Baskerville Hall.
01:01:42Has he? May I ask why?
01:01:44To invite you and your friends to dinner tonight.
01:01:47That's very kind of him.
01:01:51Would you like some cider?
01:01:53Thank you very much. I would.
01:02:01What time are we expected to arrive?
01:02:04You mean you will come?
01:02:06I'm looking forward to it.
01:02:09It won't be like Baskerville Hall.
01:02:12I haven't spent all my life at Baskerville Hall, Cécile.
01:02:17I like your home.
01:02:19This is not my home.
01:02:21My home is in Spain.
01:02:25You were looking at the picture of my parents.
01:02:29My mother was a fine woman.
01:02:31A fine Spanish woman.
01:02:34She would hear nothing of living in England.
01:02:37She was born in Spain and there she would die, she said.
01:02:40And she did die.
01:02:42We came here to England.
01:02:44My father spent all the money we had saved to come back to England to become a gentleman farm in his own country.
01:02:52But the land he bought is no good.
01:02:54But the land he bought is no good.
01:02:57The man is gone.
01:02:59We have a saying at home.
01:03:00Herbamala nunca muere.
01:03:04Weeds are not killed by the frost.
01:03:08We still live.
01:03:11Have you ever thought of going back?
01:03:12I've thought of nothing else.
01:03:14But my father is too proud to admit his bitten.
01:03:18Proud of this.
01:03:19And so we are left with the moor and the mist.
01:03:26You must be very lonely.
01:03:28Yes, I am very lonely.
01:03:30When you are poor, no one wants to know you.
01:03:33Well, I want to know you, Cécile.
01:03:41Why did you run away from me yesterday when we had hardly met?
01:03:46Why did you kiss me, Cécile?
01:03:50Why?
01:03:52I don't know.
01:03:56Tell me.
01:03:57I don't know. I don't know.
01:04:03Will you meet me tonight at the hall?
01:04:21We can walk back across the moor.
01:04:25If you want me to.
01:04:33Our paths seem to have crossed this morning, Sir Henry.
01:04:38I suppose you've come to talk about the farm.
01:04:42You have cider.
01:04:43Good. Cécile fetch another tankard for me.
01:04:46Now, quickly about a go.
01:04:47Do sit down, Sir Henry.
01:04:51I was wondering whether you and your guests at the hall
01:04:53would care to join us for a meal here tonight.
01:04:55Just simple fare, of course.
01:04:57Yes, sir. Your daughters already told me.
01:04:59I'd be very pleased to.
01:05:00And so, I think, all Mr. Holmes and Dr. Watson.
01:05:03Good.
01:05:04It'll be a change for us to have visitors.
01:05:09Your health, sir.
01:05:18But how can you be so certain
01:05:20that somebody took one of the Bishop's spiders
01:05:23and deliberately placed it in Sir Henry's room?
01:05:25That it wasn't in the luggage he brought from South Africa?
01:05:27Elementary, my dear Watson.
01:05:29There are no tarantulas in South Africa.
01:05:32Oh.
01:05:33Well, whoever placed it there didn't know that.
01:05:36Precisely.
01:05:37But he did know when and where Sir Henry was arriving
01:05:40and where he'd be staying.
01:05:42He also knew a great deal about the Baskerville family.
01:05:45A bite from a tarantula is not necessarily deadly
01:05:47to a healthy man,
01:05:49but to a man with a weak heart.
01:05:50Well, that indicates that it's somebody
01:05:53from this part of the country.
01:05:54Why not?
01:05:55There's an excellent train service to and from London.
01:05:58And as Sir Charles died on Dartmoor only a month ago,
01:06:00it would arouse less suspicion
01:06:01if Sir Henry died in London.
01:06:03Sir Charles, I'd almost forgotten about him.
01:06:05It's a good thing I remembered, wasn't it?
01:06:08Well, all right.
01:06:09But the person who benefited most
01:06:11from Sir Charles's will was Sir Henry.
01:06:13You're not going to suggest
01:06:13that he killed his uncle, are you?
01:06:15A million pounds is a great temptation.
01:06:18In a case such as this,
01:06:19everyone is suspect, even Sir Henry.
01:06:21Dr. Mortimer was the only one
01:06:22who knew where Sir Henry would be staying in London
01:06:25and when he was arriving.
01:06:27Oh, no.
01:06:27No.
01:06:28The London Times would have published it.
01:06:31Well, what about the legend of the Hound of Hell?
01:06:33Remember, we've both seen something of its horror.
01:06:36Watson, you inspire me!
01:06:38Let me see your map, quickly.
01:06:40Selden swore he heard his cries
01:06:42coming from the very depths of the earth,
01:06:44the Hound of Hell.
01:06:46Let me see.
01:06:48Really, I must pull myself together.
01:06:49I should have noticed this long ago.
01:06:57Ah, Holmes.
01:06:59Barrymore told me you'd arrived.
01:07:01About time, too, if I may say so.
01:07:04Considering what happened to that convict fellow last night.
01:07:06The development I deeply regret, Dr. Mortimer.
01:07:09Well, I don't.
01:07:10A man like that deserves all he gets.
01:07:12Well, in case you're both wondering why I'm here,
01:07:16I've just come over to start looking through the family estates.
01:07:20I think I'm wasting my time, if you ask me.
01:07:22You know, really, Holmes,
01:07:23I find it quite impossible to get on with Sir Henry.
01:07:26I understand you had a disagreement with him last night.
01:07:30Disagreement?
01:07:31The fellow was downright rude, if that's what you mean.
01:07:33Hardly a good enough excuse to leave someone alone when you know him to be in danger.
01:07:37You did tell me that you'd stay with Sir Henry until I got back.
01:07:40What if I did?
01:07:40I don't see why I should be insulted by the man I'm trying to protect.
01:07:44After all, I only mentioned the subject of the legend.
01:07:47Ah, now, you are very fond of doing that, Dr. Mortimer.
01:07:49Why?
01:07:50You were the first to discover the existence of the legend, weren't you?
01:07:54Mr. Holmes,
01:07:55when I engaged you,
01:07:57I looked to you to protect Sir Henry's interests.
01:08:00I'm beginning to see, for the first time in my life,
01:08:02I was wrong in my judgment.
01:08:04If you care to relinquish the case.
01:08:06I never relinquish a case.
01:08:07Mr. Holmes!
01:08:08Oh, but please, please, don't let us fall out at this stage.
01:08:11I need your help, unfortunately.
01:08:15You, uh,
01:08:16you know a great deal about the geography and the history of this district, I believe.
01:08:20I am considered something of an authoritative.
01:08:22There is an old tin mine marked here on the map.
01:08:25Does it still exist?
01:08:27I believe so.
01:08:29What of it?
01:08:30It's been derelict for years.
01:08:31Yes, I rather fear this map will be out of date.
01:08:34Could you show me the way to the entrance?
01:08:36What on earth for?
01:08:39Could you?
01:08:42I'm afraid not.
01:08:43I haven't been near there for years.
01:08:46Perhaps Stapleton can help you.
01:08:48It lies under his ground.
01:08:50If he agreed to show me, would you be prepared to come with us?
01:08:53I suggest that you stay away from the mine, Mr. Holmes.
01:08:56It hasn't been in use for a long time,
01:08:58and the shafting is in a dangerous condition.
01:09:01And how do you know that if you haven't been near there for years?
01:09:04Hmm?
01:09:04Well, it's obvious, isn't it?
01:09:07Any kind of tunnelling is dangerous if it isn't in a proper state of repair.
01:09:10All the same, I feel I must take a look at it.
01:09:12Will you come with me?
01:09:13As an archaeologist, your help will be invaluable.
01:09:16I suppose if you're going to make an issue of it, I shall have to come.
01:09:19Good.
01:09:20Good man.
01:09:21What do you want me to do?
01:09:22Identify anything I may find.
01:09:24Strange things are to be found on the moor.
01:09:26Like this, for instance.
01:09:28What did you find that?
01:09:36Interesting, isn't it?
01:09:37Could you tell me how old it is?
01:09:40Well, I'm not sure.
01:09:42But 1700, I imagine.
01:09:441740, to be exact.
01:09:45And the blood.
01:09:46How old is that?
01:09:47I couldn't tell.
01:09:47Then I will tell you.
01:09:48It is less than 10 hours old.
01:09:51Could you tell me anything else about the weather?
01:09:55No.
01:09:56Oh, come, come.
01:09:57With your knowledge of the legend, I made certain you would have known.
01:10:01This is the dagger Sir Hugo Baskerville used to murder the farm girl in the abbey.
01:10:05And more recently, it has been used for some diabolical ceremony.
01:10:08All right, Watson.
01:10:19We're all down quite safely.
01:10:21Good.
01:10:22I'll be waiting for you here.
01:10:25I don't expect we should be very loud.
01:10:27You'd both better follow close behind me for the moment.
01:10:38You'll have to watch your step.
01:10:58It's very slippery down here.
01:11:00The water seeps through from the mire.
01:11:05Don't touch any of the props, whatever you do.
01:11:07You've got the whole roof down on us.
01:11:10She'd never have come down here.
01:11:11It's far too dangerous.
01:11:13What do you expect to find, Mr. Holmes?
01:11:16What is one likely to find under the ground?
01:11:19Bones, perhaps?
01:11:37This is dangerous.
01:11:46You can carry on, Mr. Holmes, while we chop the wheels.
01:11:50Certainly.

01:18:37But this is the way to the farm.
01:18:39Come on.
01:19:05Come on.
01:19:35Come on.
01:20:05Come here.
01:20:06Come here.
01:20:08Come here.
01:20:09Come here.
01:20:32Swine.
01:20:34You thought it was going to be easy, didn't you?
01:20:37Didn't you?
01:20:38You won't be the first of your family who thought that.
01:20:41And you won't be the first to die because of it.
01:20:45Remember the legend?
01:20:47Sir Hugo died here.
01:20:50His throat was torn out because of a girl.
01:20:53And Sir Charles, your dear uncle, he died here, didn't he?
01:20:58Died because he wanted me, like you.
01:21:00Died because he wanted a woman enough to bring me here, alone, at night.
01:21:06In spite of the hunt of the Baskerville, he died screaming.
01:21:12I know I watched him.
01:21:15And now you are here, alone, at night.
01:21:20You don't understand, do you?
01:21:22Then let me explain.
01:21:23I too am a Baskerville, descended from Sir Hugo,
01:21:27descended from those who died in poverty.
01:21:30Why, you scum, ruled the moor.
01:21:33We waited and prayed for this moment, my father and I.
01:21:37Now our time has come, and yours.
01:21:41The curse of the hound is on you.
01:21:43No.
01:21:44No!
01:21:44No!
01:21:54No!
01:21:57No!
01:21:57No!
01:22:00No!
01:22:02No!
01:22:02Let's go.
01:22:32Let's go.
01:23:02No, Watson. She won't get far.
01:23:04I came to Sir Henry.
01:23:09All right.
01:23:11All right, Sir Henry.
01:23:13The hound is dead.
01:23:14And you must see it.
01:23:16No, I...
01:23:17It is best that you should.
01:23:20There is nothing to fear now.
01:23:40There's a passage leaving from the mine to this place.
01:23:42I discovered it after a statement tried to kill me down there.
01:23:51They use this mask to make it look more terrifying.
01:23:55It was starved for weeks,
01:23:56kept down the mine till the time was ripe,
01:23:58then given the scent.
01:23:59They had to have something of yours to give the hound.
01:24:14We'd better get Sir Henry back to Baskerville Hall, Holmes.
01:24:17Have you got your cape?
01:24:17Don't you get it for me?
01:24:41Sir, the curse has claimed its last victim.
01:24:44Yes.
01:24:45No more will be heard at the hound of the Baskerville.
01:24:53I feel I have already suffered enough from my infamous ancestor.
01:24:57And so...
01:24:58And so I am sending you the missing portrait
01:25:00which we found at Stapleland Farm
01:25:02to add to your famous collection of souvenirs.
01:25:05I hope you will accept it.
01:25:06Also the check which I enclose for...
01:25:09Mm-hmm.
01:25:09Very generous.
01:25:11After tea, you must write to Sir Henry
01:25:12and tell him that I shall be pleased to accept both his gifts.
01:25:18Tell me, Holmes.
01:25:20When did you first suspect the truth about this case?
01:25:24The truth?
01:25:24Yes, that the hound was a real dog,
01:25:29not just a legendary myth.
01:25:30Ah.
01:25:31When Sir Henry complained of a missing boot,
01:25:33that put me on the scent, as it were.
01:25:36Well, as early as that.
01:25:39It's incredible.
01:25:40Elementary, my dear Watson.
01:25:42Elementary.
01:25:44Muffin.
01:25:47Mm-hmm.
01:26:08The End
