1:00What a flavor That Petri port just sort of rolls around on your tongue and oh boy is that ever good Try Petri port after dinner some evening or try it when some friends drop in You can serve it proudly because after all the name Petri is the proudest name in the history of American wines And now let's look in on our good friend Dr. Watson and see if he's expecting it Come in Mr. Barton, just a man I've been expecting How are you Dr. Watson? It's good to see you again Oh no thank you my boy, it's very nice to you again too I'm this time under night visits during the last three months It's just so dark Would you get a join me in a glass of port? Thanks Dr. that would be nice You know it seems to me after our summer vacation that toast to the great Sherlock Holmes would be in order We have to next in the idea Here you are young fella Thanks, you proposed to toast Dr.

2:00The Sherlock Holmes master detective and loyal friend whose adventures are brought considerable to his city Fame to a certain retired doctor now living in northern California I'll drink to that Well now suppose I might as well get on with the night story Which particular adventure have you selected Dr? One that I call the limping ghost Sounds exciting And as yours will you find me saying how did it begin? In Baker Street on a winded December evening at the turn of the century A young white face boy set in front of our blazing fire And as he told us his strange story the flickering fire like goused weird patterns on the walls The young man was Alexander McMurray The sub-early of Loch Nair The early of Loch Nair So didn't I read in the papers the other day that the eighth Earl of Loch Nair had been killed in an airplane accident? Fried right my boy Even in this day and age the tragic history of violent death seems to dog the footsteps of the Loch Nair family Which returned to my story

3:00On that December night in 1900 we heard the whole history of the limping ghost of Loch Nair The first Earl had lost the foot to the Battle of Floddenfield in 1513 In spite of this terrible handicap he fought on Valium Clean Can he died on the battlefield from loss of blood? From then on right until the time this story begins The limping ghost, dead in a suit of armor All was appeared at Loch Nair Castle before and after the death of the current Earl Yes, Mr. Bartel It was a strange story that Sherlock Holmes and I listened to that night A story of death on a horror over the centuries Punctuated by the limping flank of ghostly armor The lady, I have terrible news for you Your husband the Earl was killed in the explosion destroyed Lord Darnley The

4:06Miss Aide The Die Fox planned to blow out the house of Parliament of Staled The husband is in the Tower of London He says he hangs upon a cottage The Madam, I regret to inform you that your husband or my instructions have been arrested from the... I have no doubt that you do, okay? And that's the story of the Loch Nairs, Mr. Holmes You were instrumental in sending my great uncle to the gallows of fate which he richly deserved, I'm told So, I've seen the only natural to come here to beck of street and consult you now that I'm in trouble I can't be most happy to do anything I can to help you, sir I don't remember anything about you sending the Earl of Loch Nair to the scaffold home Well, he did, Dr. Watson And the servants of Boris Swall and the ghost really did walk at midnight on the day that he was hanged Indeed Now, sir, I suggest that you tell us what problem brought you here The ghost is walking again, Mr. Holmes You know what that means According to the legend that the present Earl will die

5:08Exactly And as I'm the present Earl You can see why I'm rather worried Might have understand the truth, actually, seen this ghost yourself Yes, Mr. Holmes The night before last Betty, well that is Ms. Nolan, I was sitting in the dining hall in front of the fire But we had a strange sound up in the musicians gallery We looked up and in the moonlight saw ghostly figure in armor Lamping towards the staircase Super, she's me My dear sir, you're certain that you really thought Moonlight can play strange tricks, you know There wasn't any doubt about it, Dr. Both of us know I haven't heard it What did you do? I started to go towards the stairs, but as I did so Betty screamed and then come to the floor in a heap Thank you, sir Yes, while I was reviving her, the ghost disappeared Who's staying with you at Loch Nairt Castle at the moment? Well, there's Betty Nolan, she's the sister of James Nuffin, he looks after my estate Betty and I engaged with him, aye Oh, who's the... Thank you Is indeed anyone else staying with you? Yes, this cousin of mine, get it, came up from Moritz in America He turned up in England a couple of months ago with his son Walter

6:09So both of me at the present? A distant cousin, that's right, Mr. Holmes Actually, the descendants of a more than usually black sheep branch of the family I don't know how long the old man's going to be with us though You ask me, he's a dying man Are you sure that's her? As far as I can gather, he's been wasting away for years It's only a question of time for his strength to fail him entirely I was hoping perhaps you could take a look at him, Dr. Watson, that is By the way, you and Mr. Holmes, to come and stay at the castle for a few days What about at home? It's an intriguing problem, Watson The current Earl of Loch Nair would seem to be in danger A cousin of his is dying of an obscure disease And the ghost of Loch Nair's castle is walking again Yes, it's an irresistible invitation I see no reason why we can't leave on the scotch express tonight I've been quite a heavy fall of snow here in your absence young man

7:10Quite so, judging from the colour of the sky, there's more to come Very angry looking Oh, now, as we round this bend, you'll be able to see the castle I ask, are you our gentlemen? Magnificent Yes, it's a fine place, alright, Dr. Dr., it costs me a great deal of an upkeep As a matter of fact, I only have one wing open I've always been something of a problem to get surface to come and live here See the local villages have a great respect for the Loch Nair ghost What's certain is to have it a council person? Well, cook housekeeper, Mrs. McClendon, final lady who's been with me for six years now And then as over with Tammus, he served my family for as long as I can remember Where's the matter of fact that he is now? Hello, Tammus I'm glad to see you back, my lord, Mesa Fein Oh, thank you, Tammus Oh, these gentlemen are Mr. Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson Good day, Gigi, and for the good day, Dr. Watson Good day, Dr. Watson I'll break the trap route to the stables And may as well break the news to you Yes, what's happened, Tammus?

8:10He ate your cousin, my lord, poor old Mr. McMorris, he's dead, huh? Guide only this morning, God rest his soul I'm very sorry that I arrived too late to be going to help Well, thank you for telling me, Tammus Well, you may take the trap down, huh? I so, I'll bring the baggage for you So is that Well, I can't say it's unexpected, but it is a shock, nevertheless I'm sure that it must be, particularly as you yourself told us You saw the ghost of luck now, the night of fallout In which case? In which case? What's, and I think we may reasonably expect another digitation Perhaps the poor, the night is over Should we go in? This is Mr. Nolan, my fiance, Mr. Sherlock Holmes, and Dr. Watson I'm very glad to meet you Oh, and this is her brother James Nolan, the manager of my estate I'll do so How are you, Mr. Nolan? Much better for seeing you both up here I'm sure it won't take you long to lay this ghost business by the ear How are you?

9:10Plus, you've gone to overestimate our abilities, Mr. Nolan Erick, you've heard about your cousin, of course Oh, yes, my dear, Tammus told us if we drove up Face Walter? He went into the village with the doctor and the body of his father He should be back soon How's he taking it? Very quietly Too quietly, if you ask me Those Americans are pretty damn nice to people, you know And Walter has been our exception But he behaved very strangely this morning And the doctor told him his father was dead, he just said Now things will start to happen and shut up like an oyster I can't make it a tale of it Yes, quite so, doctor At least at home, I expect you and Dr. Watson would like to go to your room I think I'd like to take a look at the musicians' gallery, if you don't mind Of course Would you excuse us, darling? Oh, right, Adam It's in the dining hall here They must have been very hospitable people in those days 50 or 60 people could eat at that table

10:10Hey, yes, doctor Needless to remark, we hardly have usual room nowadays There's the musicians' gallery, Mr. Holmes Oh, yes, yes, I see How do we get up there? Now, I'll show you See, there's a stone staircase behind this corner here Follow me Watch your step, it's quite narrow, rather dark What's your head, Watson, or what's your... I don't know, where are my homes? I'm perfectly close to it Mr. Bill is serious with pigments All right, here we are, gentlemen This is the musician's gallery Right, you It must have made a pretty picture and the day's gone by A little string orchestra fiddling away, and some below the sconditionability, bobbing and floating round in the intricacies of a highland fatigue, or a stapling of rock, to something. What does that dolly do? To the bedroom wing. And that's where the ghost appeared from the other night, I suppose. Yes, Mr. Houch. Uh-huh. The door's jar.

11:11You generally keep this door unlocked, sir? I know. But the key mysteriously disappeared about a week ago. James is having a new and made. I must remind him about that. Alex! Alex! Oh, we're up here, Walter. We're coming down. That's Walter McMarice. My good cousin, son. Well, Father, this is the deathful daily poem. Yes, I am. From the free this is going to be a rather painful interview. Hello, Walter. This is Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. How do you do, sir? How do you do? Sherlock Holmes, sir. I've heard about you and your friend Dr. Watson. Walter, man, I'm afraid they're sorry about your father. Are you now? It's nice of you. But you'll be sorry enough when you're here that I'm going to take you to court and prove that I'm the real heir of Loft-Man. Walter, you're not. If you're mine, have I? No. Father was out of his because he kept quiet all these years. But I'm going to have my rights. I've looked up the records. I've had genealogists working for months. And I've got all the facts that prove you're an impossible man. What are you talking about? You know well enough. When Sherlock Holmes is a central grade uncle to the gallows 20 years ago, the title in the state

12:13should have come to my father. When I leave here tomorrow, I'm going straight to the finest lawyer in Loft-Man. If you believe this, why have you seen a father till now? Because I'm smart. I have found out a thing or two since I've been staying here. And one of the things I found out is that your precious fiancé and her brother wouldn't look twice as if it weren't for your money in the title. Shut up. You'll find out. He's a smart little filly. And she knows what kind of a track she's running. You dare! Oh! I compliment her. A very professional apocate. Yes, and a very well-deserved, blunt, offensive, connoisseur. Sorry about this. Please don't say anything in front of Betty. Don't be obsessive. I fight up the family. Come along, Watson. Let's go find our rooms. Oh! It's nearly dinner time. Why are we wondering about here in the dark? Instead of having a glass of sugar with the others, we're like, I'm not going to just practice my boxing.

13:14Like to learn my keys. It's good to me that a further examination of his dining hall might prove profitable. Personally, I think you're wasting your time on this case. That makes you think that old, you have it. Perfectly obvious that the American fellow was impersonating the ghost a few nights ago. He knew his father was going to die, and he wanted to build up the legend. So his own claim seemed more believable. But it's not reason, Watson. Though the biological NES deception, he should repeat the performance. Now that his father is dead. Well, ghost, so do you. Oh, good midnight. So why don't we get in and have a glass of sugar? What is it, home? Someone's coming in from the library. This is Matt Rogers from Los Couturistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. This is Bowen Yang from Los Couturistas. Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. OK, we've been talking about Cupid male for a minute now, bow, and wow, the feedback we're getting. I mean, so many of you all love this stuff. You're stopping us in the street going, I love Cupid. And if you're thinking, wait, what is Cupid? Do you not have the internet?

14:15It's the OG Japanese mayonnaise. The one with the red cap and the little baby on the bottle. Once you know what, you start seeing it everywhere. People ask what makes it different from basic male. Well, the answer, egg yolk, soupy, is made with egg yolks only. Giving it this incredibly rich umami flavor that elevates everything. Burgers, fries, sandwiches, chicken, noodles, chefs use it, restaurants use it. People who really love food and flavor use it. Whatever you're eating, Cupid. So if you haven't tried Cupid yet, find the bottle with the red cap and see what everyone's talking about. You'll understand, Cupid, the original Japanese mayonnaise. It's the most beautiful. Yes? Who is it? It's me, Mrs. Martenta. Oh, who is it for you? Can we try to start? I heard voices and I knew the candles were not light in here, so I came in to see who it was. You're watching for the ghost, I suppose. Will you know me, this is a pointed gentleman, though you may seem more than you bargained for.

15:18Those that meddle with ghostly things that enough to pre-hand are playing with something much more dangerous than fire, fire burns. But the shades on dead people. Oh, oh, oh, oh, look up there, the gallery. Those opening. It's the ghost. I hear it comes the poor buddy. See the armor on it. And the way he's dragging one leg behind him. Yes, it's really quite an effective impersonation. And the twilight provides first appropriate light for his play acting too. You mean it's young American? Of course. Oh, look, look behind him. There's another figure. Yes, best in the same kind of armor and cutting a sword. James putt watching. I'd like to see him. He's turning. It's like a figure's raising a sword. Look out. Great hymns. He's not going through the railings. That must be a trick-of-foot fall. Come on, I'll call him. It's coming up in his visor. Just a minute. Yes.

16:18It's Walter McNally's the American. Now, from the angle of his head, I just suggest that it might be the late Walter McNally's say-button. Dead or right, home? Sick broken. He wilder second ticket has been able to slip back through that. On his keepers. Come on, he was dressed in armor. He can't go but it's hot. Perhaps we can overtake him. Dr. Watson's story will continue in just a few seconds, which is all the time I need to tell you about Petri, California musketeil. Ever try Petri musketeil? It's a wine that looks like sheer gold. And it's made from big, plump, juiced muskete gruel. It's made from a lot of gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from gold. It's made from wine. You need Christmas and investime trade as our popularity figures. There's no driver in fishing. Those who take advantage of their foreign markets. I assure you you'll organizer me all the time. But for the future, it will fall under a storm, you're under a storm cake cloud fall under providing food for people living in which their cell phones are sold freely.

17:21Are you holding a lot ofugs and ears? way to make sure it's going to be good. Remember Patrick. And now back to tonight's new Sherlock Holmes adventure and the story of the limping ghost of Loch Nair. I couldn't find it, Holmes. Is there a trace of the ghost in the gist of the gist of the horror? I gave him too much of a starter, no? Of course, you're going to find him. You'll never find him because he's not mortal. And this is the Childrick. Is the original suit of Anna the one worn by the first Earl of Loch Nair. Still in the castle? I said, it's in the library through that door there. I'll take you to. Oh father, thank you. We'll find it. Come on Watson. Bring that candle with you. Roger. Oh. He can know what's got to be done. Stop. He had dinner really, Ken. Hold, what do you make of the second girl? That's what I'm positive, obviously. But who could it have been?

18:22That's what we have to find out, old chap. And I could be someone new that the American Walter McMorris was impersonating the ghost and used this macabre method to kill him. But why kill him? Possibly his claims to the titular and the state were valid. Or perhaps some kinetic was so devoted to the Loch Nair legroom that he assumed the role of ghost who killed him for his sacralage. I can't live a little higher with a little jump. Yeah. Hello? Here's a suit of armor, Holmes. Lying on a heap on the floor. On the floor, eh? Obviously, the lungs on that stand over there. Perfectly clear what's happened. The second figure used this armor and slipped it back in here while we were examining the dead man. Possibly what's impossible? The least desire gives us a definite clue. But it limits the field of possible suspect. How do you mean, Holmes? Well, it's an interesting fact that the human race has grown definitely in larger in the past 400 years. Very few modern men can wear authentic ancient armor like this. For example, take the first item on the top of the heap line on the floor here. These godclips have changed mail. Start them up. Well, much too small for him.

19:22See, the humor I could have worn this suit. No, no, no. Local young man has taken it. Whereas his sister could have done this so could Thomas Sabatta. He's a small fella. And if it comes to that Watson, how a distinguished plier of the young Earl of Loch Nair is himself a small man. He's got a knife, your silly ears. And he might use it as a motive. Young with my head disputed his right to the tight earlier in the day. But he mustn't jump to conclusions. Nevertheless, you see what valuable evidence this arm has become. Die, die! Hello, hello, sounds of the rest of the party on the sea. Yes, I suggest that we join them without making any reference to the suit of armor. Remember, old chap? Some of them in there is a murderer. And we may have to suffer trapped to catch him. I know, man. Oh, I'm sorry. What's he going to say? I said in great detail. Are you sure he's dead, Dr. Watson? There's no doubt about it. His neck was broken instantly by the form. It's dreadful. Father and son both died on the same day. And the real ghost came up behind him, Mr. Holmes.

20:23And struck him so he crashed through the railing of the house. I said another big address in art. He killed him, Mr. Nolan. For the real ghost. I saw him when he owned two eyes. He killed that man for trying to bring shame on the name of Loch Nair. Couldn't we get him to touch with the police? How can I get a message to them to try to be looked outside? We're almost completely stored in. Snow, didn't. Oh, I can't find him. Gosh, no, there's nothing to be afraid of anymore. No, at least we have the assurance that the ghost will not let him begin. Why? Well, the murderer is no further mooted for impersonating the ghost. To walk now would be to support the dead and the mannequin's claims. No. We shall spend a quiet night and tomorrow I shall communicate with the proper authorities as to my quite definite notions regarding the murderer's identity. But if the ghost should walk again, Mr. Herring. Well, and so I shall know that at last I have encountered a truly supernatural cry and an answer retire from the practice of detection.

21:26Oh, is it really too a clock? You still owe that window, Buffyweather, Pappyol? You know, I can't help being that young with my arsenal as a bit. You'll more than he tells us. Please, you'll more. The ship can look about it, but I don't like it. Never did Costa for a good look at Squally in the eye. But you feel the same way home? Homes. Homes, higher. Homes. Like Watson. Where'd it be in? I thought you was over there by the window. We'd been talking to myself. Never mind that, I'll check. It was on in the dressing gown. Around the last lap of this strange eventful tragedy. Oh, thank God for that. That's how you get some sleep. Oh, where have you been? I went to the musician's gallery and waited at the trap. Now it's ready to spring. Doctor, Watson, come on, come on. I'm not doing it. What do you mean you waited at the trap? You'll see yourself in a few moments. So, in that fact, I really did it when I said downstairs that the real ghost should walk again, and I bid retire from the practice of detection.

22:26I didn't understand you're seeing that with all of my attention. Well, I was tempting the murder of the showies and ones more. Come on, come on. Things are where we're going. To wait behind the curtain at the foot of the stairs, leading to the musician's gallery. And I hope we don't have to wait that long. Holmes, I'm getting a quick in my neck. Time to feel through this wretched curtain. How much longer do we have to wait? I'm not right. Are you certain you come? Not certain, but hopeful. I'm hoping. I'm hoping. You know who it is, don't you? Yes. But my poop is too thin for a quarter of a roll. I must have kept it in the act. Here, Watson's splendid. Let's go out and grab him. No, no, no, no. They're walking in my trap. He's coming towards the head of the stair. Oh! Great start! Exactly. The simple piece of wire stretched across the gallery is remarkably effective. Even with ghosts, come on.

23:27Let me off with his visor. There we are. Good lord, it's... It's changed now. Exactly. What happened? You walked into a simple trap, my friend. And I've made the next trap where we'll be more lethal. For a funder will prove to be the one beneath the gallows. Well, now that we're headed back for London home, perhaps you'll settle one of two points in the case... ...that the boring me quite a bit. Oh, we're pleasure, my dear chap. What are they? I still don't see what Nolan's motive was in murdering the American... Oh, that should be obvious. He wanted to ensure that his sister's dance would enjoy undisputed title to the name of the states. How did you know it was Nolan? When I examined the authentic suit of armour. I was wondering if you could tell me what it was. When I examined the authentic suit of armour. You see, it was obvious it had never been worn.

24:28I still don't quite understand. Oh, come now, old gentleman. Shoot of armour, there was a heap on the floor. And if it had been hastily discarded, and yet, well, the Gauntlets were on top of the pile, remember? That's right, there were. If the shoot had been worn, the Gauntlets would have been the first things to be taken off. And so would have been underneath the pile. Obviously, therefore, the armour had been disarranged in order to make people believe the wheel goes to walks. After the Americans' death, the suspects were formed. This Nolan, her brother Thomas, the backler and the early self. Well, I pulled out Mrs. Patentit, because you remember she was standing behind us at the time of the mid-air. I'm beginning to understand all the suspects except Nolan were small enough to warn the other. That's right. Therefore, only he could have pretended to use it. Pretend it, but he did use it. Oh, no, my dear fellow. And, undoubtedly, he procured a similar one at the modern manufacture. Amazing case, home. An interesting one at any rate. And once again, oh, hello, I'm possibly reminded of an old Scottish litmus. Scottish litmus, which one's your remember it? Gram ghoulies and posties and long-legged beasties and things that go bump in the nights.

25:29Good Lord Deliverus. Well, Dr. Deliverus, that's really a swell story. You know, for a while, I was beginning to believe in ghosts. Well, I'm ashamed to admit it, but at the time, so I... You know, this sounds silly, but I bet it would be fun to be one of those legendary English ghosts. You know, go around sticking in those and everybody's business and playing practical jokes like that. And nobody able to figure out it. That would really be fun, in a way. Well, you can go around and scare people or you want to, but not for me. I think a ghost leads a terrible life, so... Vincent, the ghost can't have the pleasure of eating a nice, toothy steak. Yeah, or drinking a glass of really good wine. Oh, now you're talking young filamalette. That's very wine. It's still talking, you know. You see, when I say good wine, I always say good wine. I'm not talking about wine. I'm not talking about wine. I'm not talking about wine. I'm not talking about wine. I'm not talking about wine. I'm not talking about wine. You see, when I say good wine, I always mean petri wine because you can depend on petri... I know, I know. Why the petri family has been making wine for generations,

26:30handing on down from father to son, from father to son, or less skill and knowledge and experience. When you realize they started the petri business way back in the 1800s, well, common sense tells you the petri family knows practically all there is to know about the fine art of turning luscious grapes into clear, fragrant wine. Yeah, whether you're looking for a swell wine to serve before dinner or with dinner, or after dinner, for any occasion. You just can't go wrong with a petri wine because petri took time to bring you good wine. Now, Dr. Westore, you're going to tell us this week. Well, now, excuse me, Mr. Bartel, I'm going to tell you a strange adventure that Holmes and I had in the English countryside. It concerns the apparent madness of a certain Colonel Walbutton and the puzzling mystery of two dead dogs.

27:31Tonight Sherlock Holmes' adventure is written by Dennis Green and Anthony Boucher and is based on an incident in the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's story, The Crooked Man. Mr. Rathbone appears through the courtesy of Metzgoldwenme. And Mr. Boucher through the courtesy of Universal Pictures, where they are now starring in the Sherlock Holmes series. The petri wine company of San Francisco, California, invites you to tune in again next week, same time, same station. Oh, the petri family took the time to bring you such good wine. So when you eat and when you cook, remember petri wine. To make good food tastes better, remember. This is Harry Bartel saying good night for the petri family.

28:34Sherlock Holmes comes to you from our Hollywood studios. This is the mutual broadcasting space.
