00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:19,753
(Narrator) "Along the coast of Norfolk.
there persists an ancient legend.

2
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,190
It is said that in the Dark Ages,

3
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,154
when the Vikings were
a constant scourge.

4
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,718
the three royal crowns of Anglia
were hidden in the ground.

5
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,272
The crowns. so the legend runs.
had a strange power.

6
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,677
No foreign army would invade
the kingdom of Anglia

7
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:43,352
so long as at least one of them
remained undisturbed.

8
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:45,073
Since that time,

9
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,669
the site of one crown
has been plundered by thieves

10
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,156
and its treasure melted down.

11
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:54,877
Another has been covered
by the encroaching sea.

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,676
Only one crown now remains,

13
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,999
lying somewhere
in its royal burial ground."

14
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,831
Oh. hello'.

15
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,591
Can I help you?

16
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,076
No digging here'.

17
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,554
I beg your pardon?

18
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,353
No digging here'.

19
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,473
What you mean. no digging here?

20
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,310
- I have permission from the landlord.
- No!

21
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,558
Well. if you want to stand about all day.
that's your affair.

22
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,555
Look. you stupid oaf.
I said I've got permission.

23
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,991
Now get out. or I'll...
I'll get you locked up'.

24
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,277
No digging'.

25
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,516
(Train whistles)

26
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:41,470
- Down for long. sir?
- A few days. I expect.

27
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,159
- Let me.
- Oh. there's no need'.

28
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,360
Thank you.

29
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,916
Must make a change
from the daily grind. sir.

30
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,395
Yes. I suppose it does.

31
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,953
Begging your pardon. sir.
but would you be here to lunch?

32
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,993
Lunch? Oh. um...
I'm going to have a look around.

33
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,873
I wouldn't have asked.

34
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,960
but being as it's so early in the year
and there's only you and Dr Black.

35
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,675
- Dr Black?
- One of our regulars. sir.

36
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,635
Comes down every year
to do a bit of sketching.

37
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,798
A real gentleman. Dr Black is.

38
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,310
Well. if that's all. sir.
I'll be getting along.

39
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,514
Oh. I'll be needing a loan of a bicycle.
Is that possible?

40
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,111
I'll see what I can do. sir.

41
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,159
It is a fine porch. isn't it?

42
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:01,875
Oh. hello'.
Yes. it's very interesting.

43
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,798
Mentioned in Cooper. you know.

44
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,559
- Cooper?
- Cooper. R L.

45
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,720
"Romances & Roles of East Anglia".
Fine publication.

46
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,470
Sadly out of print these many years.
You're looking at the coat of arms.

47
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,274
Yes. there's a legend attached to it.
isn't there?

48
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,518
The buried crowns
that guard the realm.

49
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:20,994
That's in Cooper.

50
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,760
It's still current folklore
around here.

51
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,076
You mean there are still people
who believe in it?

52
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,032
Most of my parishioners.

53
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,790
They take these traditions more
seriously than their churchgoing.

54
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,070
Fascinating.

55
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,840
For the historian
or the antiquarian. perhaps.

56
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,270
But uphill work for the vicar'.

57
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,915
I take it that's where you interests lie?
As an antiquarian. I mean.

58
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,600
Yes. I'm an amateur.

59
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,754
- You. er...know the legend well?
- Yes.

60
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,079
They say two crowns were lost.
but there was a local family

61
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,238
who claimed to know
where the third was buried.

62
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,760
In times of war.

63
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:08,194
the oldest male would watch
to see that it remained unmolested.

64
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,836
The last surviving member of
the family took the duty upon himself

65
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,395
throughout the four years
of the Great War.

66
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,638
It became an obsession with him.
poor fellow.

67
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,878
He haunted the spot
night and day.

68
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,959
- You knew him?
- Yes. I knew him.

69
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,958
He was a solitary. you know.

70
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,959
No family or friends. No one at all.

71
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:33,279
I was with him at the end.
to little effect. I'm afraid.

72
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,792
He died. still haunted
by his superstition. in great distress.

73
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,515
There was no one to replace him.
you see.

74
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,474
He was the last one
to guard the crown.

75
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,557
It upset him deeply.

76
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:47,751
Was he an old man when he died?

77
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,430
No. he was young.
He had a consumption.

78
00:08:51,560 --> 00:08:54,792
If he had treated himself
with care...

79
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,877
Does anyone know
where he watched?

80
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,310
If they do. they don't tell.

81
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,511
I'm not really a native. you see.

82
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,519
I've only lived here 20 years.

83
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,871
I sometimes wonder what my role is.

84
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,799
I'm certainly not
a father-confessor.

85
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,197
No. the secret lies buried with him.
I should think.

86
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,674
He was buried here?

87
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,519
Yes.

88
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,757
Over there by the trees.

89
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,712
Ager was the name.

90
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,672
William Ager.

91
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,712
- Do you mind if I...?
- Look?

92
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,676
By all means. It's very overgrown
in that corner. I'm afraid.

93
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,838
No one's been over there
since he was buried.

94
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:38,320
Forgive me if I leave you now.
I'm a little cold.

95
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,120
(Shop bell dings)

96
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,314
I am sorry...
I heard the bell.

97
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,274
Susan fell off the shelf
and broke an arm.

98
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,869
Just been affecting a little repair.

99
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,356
Was there anything in particular?

100
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,358
I was interested
in old maps of this area.

101
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:10,750
Maps. Let me see now. there's a pile
of them over here somewhere.

102
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,510
Oh dear. the place is covered in dust.
I'm afraid.

103
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,192
Where was that found?

104
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,835
In the foundations
of the old bridge.

105
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,031
They were pulling it down
some years ago.

106
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,629
It was quite common practice
in the Middle Ages.

107
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,678
- Human sacrifice.
- Yes.

108
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,031
They believed that
the murdered person

109
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:37,074
becomes an evil spirit and guards
the bridge from hostile forces.

110
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,717
It was done with temples. too.
but bridges were the most popular.

111
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,312
Virgins were supposed to be
particularly efficacious.

112
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:53,195
"London Bridge is falling down.
my fair lady."

113
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,993
Nursery rhymes are fascinating.

114
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,715
Oh. well. here are your maps.

115
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,639
I'll leave you to them.

116
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,920
"Nathaniel Ager is my name

117
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,793
"and Christ is my salvation.

118
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,960
"Seaburgh is my dwelling place
and England is my nation.

119
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,152
"When I'm dead and in my grave
and all my bones are rotten.

120
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,079
"I hope my Lord will think on me

121
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,476
"when I'm quite forgotten."

122
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,638
Nathaniel Ager.

123
00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:14,592
William Ager'.

124
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:32,632
And how are you enjoying Seaburgh.
Mr Paxton?

125
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,912
Pretty well. thank you.
It's very quiet.

126
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,952
Makes a pleasant change
from London.

127
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,356
It's hard to think
of anywhere that doesn't.

128
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,551
Are you down here for the shooting?

129
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:45,798
No. archeology is my hobby.
actually.

130
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,798
Really?
Looking for anything specific?

131
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:52,358
No... No. I'm just looking around
on the off-chance. you know.

132
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,392
Nothing very promising so far.
I'm afraid.

133
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,000
I'm sorry.

134
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,319
Oh. I wonder
if you could help me. Dr Black.

135
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,832
I'm looking for a family called Ager.
I was wondering if you...

136
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,680
Ager? No. I don't think
I can help you.

137
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,395
- But ask Arnold. he'll know.
- Arnold?

138
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,400
Boots. he fulfill the role
of a local newspaper here.

139
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,751
There's nothing he does not know.

140
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,351
- Ager. sir?
- Yes.

141
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:21,880
Here. sir?

142
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,673
That's right.

143
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,632
- In Seaburgh?
- Yes.

144
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,712
No, sir.

145
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,760
But you're a local man. aren't you?
Lived here all your life.

146
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,430
- That's right. sir.
- And Seaburgh is only a little place.

147
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,039
Small enough. sir.

148
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,879
Seems very odd to me.
That you didn't know him. I mean.

149
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,877
Seems very odd to me. too. sir.

150
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,638
If that's all. sir.

151
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,554
- (Dog barks)
- Down'.

152
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,158
Down. boy'. I'm sorry. sir'.

153
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,273
You won't believe me.
but he's never been like this before'.

154
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,278
I hope he hasn't hurt you.

155
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,120
Dangerous'.
You should keep him locked up.

156
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,835
But he's usually so gentle.
Down. boy'.

157
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,590
Just a minute. sir.
I'll get something to rub you down.

158
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,793
Here we are, sir.

159
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,277
Did anyone come by this way
a moment ago?

160
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,198
No one's been through here
all morning.

161
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,040
I've been in the yard
the last half hour.

162
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:58,833
- You'd have seen?
- Seen?

163
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,111
Mister. if anyone comes down here.
it's an occasion'.

164
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,357
I'd have seen all right.

165
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,591
You're not from this part of the world.
are you?

166
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,280
No. from London.
Wish to God I was back there'.

167
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,675
- You're from there too. aren't you?
- Yes.

168
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,519
- How long have you been here?
- Two years. Two lifetimes, more like!

169
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,552
Dad come down looking for work.

170
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,639
Some chance'.
He went off again after Christmas.

171
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,754
He's going to come and fetch us
when he's found something. When'.

172
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,600
- Where's your mother. then?
- Do me a favour'.

173
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,316
- So you're alone?
- I've got my brother and the dog.

174
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,400
Wait a minute. mister.
You looking for someone?

175
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:45,311
Oh, I was looking for a cottage
where someone used to live.

176
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:50,231
Before your time. I think. I'm beginning
to wonder if he existed at all.

177
00:17:50,360 --> 00:17:52,750
No one seems to have heard of him.
A man called Ager.

178
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,317
- Ager?
- You've heard of him?

179
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,080
Well. he used to live here
before we did.

180
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,635
- Fancy that!
- Did you know him?

181
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:06,471
No. he was dead before we come.
I only know he was touched. Daft.

182
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:07,829
In what way?

183
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,997
Well, he must have been,
to go out at night like that

184
00:18:10,120 --> 00:18:13,636
in his state of health,
he can't have been normal.

185
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,353
He went out on the sea?

186
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,917
No. but people say
he used to wait around

187
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,839
in that little wood
over by the sand dunes.

188
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,954
You can see round the back
of the house. Want to see?

189
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,792
There it is.

190
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,196
I don't suppose
anybody goes there now.

191
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,710
Who would want to?

192
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,800
I've seen an old tramp or something
in the trees from time to time,

193
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,151
but he never comes this way.

194
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,434
- Oh!
- Sorry you've got to go, sir.

195
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,190
Something's come up in London.
I'll be back in the morning.

196
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,157
Flaxton return. please.

197
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,075
- Mind the steps, sir.
- Thank you.

198
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,640
(Whistle blows)

199
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,398
(Coughing)

200
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,356
- Morning.
- Morning.

201
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,597
Running for the train van?

202
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,112
- That's right.
- Plenty of time.

203
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,275
Yes.

204
00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,594
(Train whistles)

205
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,792
Mind the step, sir. Oh...

206
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,638
Sorry, sir.
Thought I saw somebody.

207
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,832
(Growling)

208
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:33,840
(Rasping breath)

209
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,514
You're standing right in the middle
of my picture.

210
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,950
I'm sorry.

211
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,639
You made me jump.

212
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,599
This is a wonderful spot
for landscapes.

213
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,191
I've been coming here
for the past 20 years.

214
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,950
And my wife detests the place,
so it makes the perfect residence.

215
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:39,591
But I doubt if I'll ever catch it.

216
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,471
What a strange evening it is.

217
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,392
You can't see where the beach ends
or the sky begins.

218
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,310
It's a real night
for walking on the water.

219
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,120
Are you cold. Mr Paxton?

220
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,114
No. not really.

221
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,315
I trust you settled your affairs
in London.

222
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:08,669
Uh, yes I did.

223
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,635
- Everything's fine now.
- Good.

224
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,720
Because it's a pity to have
to break up one's holiday.

225
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,555
Now there's an extraordinary thing.

226
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:28,669
I put a figure on my shore to give
it some perspective and if you look.

227
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:33,511
you can see there's someone
standing there. just where I put him.

228
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:40,479
That's nature imitating art for you.
Mr Paxton.

229
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,432
Mr Paxton?

230
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,392
Mr Paxton, what is the matter?

231
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,594
It's nothing really,
had a bit of a shock, that's all.

232
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,876
Bad news in London?

233
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,993
I didn't go to London, Dr Black.

234
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,032
Oh. did you not?

235
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,072
I never go there if possible.

236
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,120
Er, where did you go, then?

237
00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:19,800
You remember I told you
I was interested in archeology?

238
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:21,718
Yes, yes, I do.

239
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,312
That figure's he's gone again'.

240
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,400
Yes, well, the light plays tricks.
Perhaps he was never there.

241
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,035
You were saying. Mr Paxton?

242
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:35,674
Yes...

243
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,358
Have you heard of
the Seaburgh Crown. Dr Black?

244
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,200
The crown that guards the coast?

245
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,597
Yes, as a matter of fact I have.
Why?

246
00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:48,234
I've found it.

247
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:52,959
I've found the crown.

248
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,239
That's wonderful.

249
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,039
Extraordinary.

250
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,312
And unique. isn't it?

251
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,674
- May I?
- No. don't touch it.

252
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,236
One's enough for that.

253
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,196
Well, it's a brilliant find,
Mr Paxton.

254
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,357
You can't be an amateur.
Where did you study?

255
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,517
Study?

256
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,280
I'm a clerk, Dr Black.
Or was.

257
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:32,276
My firm folded up last week. I'd been
in the job twelve years, clerking.

258
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:36,394
No prospects. mind you.
but respectable and. above all. secure.

259
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,557
That's what they say, isn't it?

260
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,237
Archeology has been my hobby
for as long as I can remember.

261
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,471
I used to dream
of doing something big.

262
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,474
And show people you didn't need
a string of letters after your name

263
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,671
to be recognised.

264
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,394
When the job stopped,
I took a chance.

265
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,080
I'd heard about the Seaburgh legend
in London,

266
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,998
read about it
in an old book I found.

267
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:02,554
I didn't believe it at first,

268
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,399
there are so many legends
like that about the Dark Ages.

269
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,752
rubbish most of them.
but what had I got to lose?

270
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,999
I was out on the street. anyway.
It was worth a try. I thought.

271
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,919
An Anglo-Saxon crown.

272
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:19,956
No one's ever discovered one before.
And I found it.

273
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:26,280
Well. you are to be congratulated.
Mr Paxton.

274
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,234
And may I ask what you intend
to do with it next?

275
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,351
I'm going to put it back.

276
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:36,480
I beg your pardon?

277
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,069
I'm going to put it back.
back in the ground.

278
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,716
Well, in heaven's name why?

279
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,637
I'd hardly expect you to understand.

280
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:55,639
Ever since I've touched this thing...
I've never been alone.

281
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,430
Oh. you mean
you've been followed?

282
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,916
I understand
there is some local feeling,

283
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,350
on account of the legend.
I believe.

284
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,154
- You've heard about it. then?
- A little.

285
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:14,672
An archaeologist was murdered
some years ago,

286
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:19,431
and it was thought that
he may have been after the crown.

287
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,120
Perhaps you should put the matter
in the hands of the police.

288
00:38:23,240 --> 00:38:25,471
There'd be no point.

289
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,389
The murderer died twelve years ago.
I've seen the grave.

290
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,630
His name was William Ager,
the guardian of the crown.

291
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,753
Well, in that case,
what have you got to be afraid of?

292
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,958
Oh, you'd have felt it too,
if you'd been there.

293
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,233
He's never left me
since I found the crown.

294
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,114
He takes different shapes
but he's never left me.

295
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,796
If I return it,
there might be some hope.

296
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,831
The thing is, I can't do it alone,
go back there.

297
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:04,189
I want you to come with me.

298
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:11,836
(Rasping cough echoes)

299
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,119
(Door shuts)

300
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,955
Arnold?
Who is the new guest?

301
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:23,278
Guest, sir?
Only you and Mr Paxton.

302
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:27,030
I just heard him.
he went into the room there.

303
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,197
He couldn't have done. sir.

304
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,509
I keep it locked. you see.

305
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,557
It's a store cupboard, sir.

306
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,432
(Low growling)

307
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,389
(Screaming)

308
00:41:09,240 --> 00:41:11,232
Paxton! Paxton, what is it?

309
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,192
The key, man!

310
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,039
That one, sir.

311
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,114
What happened, Paxton?
What was it?

312
00:41:24,720 --> 00:41:26,757
He was here. you see.

313
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,231
He came to take it back.

314
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:10,877
That's it.

315
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,991
Shall I come with you?

316
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,113
No'. I'd rather you stayed here
and kept watch.

317
00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:19,833
As you wish.

318
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,353
Well, that's done.

319
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,836
What a night'.

320
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:29,917
You've left your coat
on the mound.

321
00:43:32,720 --> 00:43:34,757
(Rasping breath)

322
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,592
(Whistling)

323
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,198
(Humming)

324
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:11,959
Paxton?

325
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,159
Mr Paxton?

326
00:44:53,720 --> 00:44:55,439
Arnold'.

327
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,476
- Have you seen Mr Paxton?
- Yes, but...

328
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,512
Well, where is he?

329
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,711
We're supposed to be going
for a walk together.

330
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,194
That's it, sir.

331
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,870
- He went off towards the sea.
- Alone?

332
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,914
No, sir, this other man,
he came up and called for him.

333
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:13,793
To go walking, I mean.

334
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,116
I was working here.

335
00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:20,280
It's daft, I know,
but he looked the image of you.

336
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,596
I thought it was you. sir.

337
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:25,076
It was only two moments ago.

338
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,995
(Breathing heavily)

339
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,431
(Sobbing)

340
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,949
Mind the step.

341
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,595
Oh, sorry, sir.

342
00:49:01,720 --> 00:49:03,712
Thought I saw somebody.

343
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,717
(Whistle blows)
