Transcript

opening the doors of the Mystery Playhouse for Peter Laurie. Tonight we bring you a superior story of crime and punishment by Freeman Will's Cross. It's called the Level Crossing. Five years ago Duncan Thwaite stole a thousand pounds from his sperm and only one man knew it.

And for five years this man John Dunn had blackmailed Thwaite. This afternoon when Dunn called on Thwaite for another payment He didn't know that the other man had murder in his heart. Yes, son? Yeah, sorry to trouble you, Mr. Price.

Leave in your office. But I'm in difficulty again. About Mr. Price. Your son? Yes, he's got into more trouble. And he must produce 500 critter and get run in. I was wondering, Mr. Price, maybe you could help me.

But devil with your son. Then you never say straight out what you want. You're like Mr. Swain, just five hundred quid. Again, that's from one gentleman to another. Five hundred? You wouldn't like the moon by any chance?

Oh, come now, sir. To a gentleman like you, five hundred's a mere nothing. Yeah, he's surely going to make a difficulty over the slightly like that. You mean you're going to get it from me. A small sum I could manage, but not five hundred.

Five hundred, Mr. Swain. You wouldn't cheat a poor man out of these pieces of money. Don't be a fool, Don. I paid you something like three thousand in the last five years and I'm about fed up. Don't push me too far.

Too far, Mr. Pippo. I wouldn't put you back, not for the world. I wouldn't. I've never mentioned this, Pippo. I didn't know you could oblige with ease. Oh, I could oblige, could I? But didn't you know so much?
