"Very bad manners not to reply." "I was saving her guests the disappointment." " What?" " No-one wants to sit next" " to a clergyman at supper." " Not every clergyman is you!" "The girls from school will be there." "I thought you avoided them as a matter of principle?" "That's not true." "I don't belong at these kind of things, Jen." "Neither do I!" "That's why I need you there." " There'll be awkward conversation." " Of course." "Talk of carpets." "Why is it the well-to-do always talk of carpets?" "Heaven forbid anyone should bring up anything important." "And then there's Amanda." "Yeah..." "Please come!" "We can catch a bus from Barton Road." "No, there's no need." "So, this is the famous Johnny Johnson!" " Please be kind." " You're besotted already." "He does a million and one amazing things." "He likes jazz." "Be kind." "Johnny!" "This is Sidney."

" You're not serious?" " Why not?" "You can never tell if the notes are being played in the right order." "That's the wonder of it, Jen." "There's no right way and there's no right order." "I think people must get very lost." "Getting lost is all part of the fun." "Ridiculous." "You're both ridiculous." "Bloody hell!" "We are going to have a lovely time." "Sidney!" " We've found a wasp nest." " We're going to try poking it." "Are you sure that's wise?" "You're not tormenting those poor wasps, are you?" " No!" " Get us some champagne, will you, Am?"

"Well, I shan't say too much, but your father... may get some pleasing news very soon." "And how's the house?" "We're between carpets at the moment." " Poor things." " It's awful, isn't it, darling?" "Nothing worse than being between carpets." "Will, you find a place in London?" "Absolutely." "Although we'll hold onto ours here." " Nice to have a bolt hole." " Are you a virgin?" " I'm sorry?" " Is that why you drink?" "Repression of your sexual desires?" "I lecture in psychology." "No, I'm not as it happens." "Hm." "Who was she?" "Well, who said there was only one?"

"You've nothing to hide." "No, why?" "Why not him?" " Or why not her?" " Johnny!" " I'm so sorry, Daphne." " Pockets!" "Now!" "Guy!" "Is that good enough?" "Or do you want me to strip off an' all?"

"Well, as a priest, isn't everything our business?" "There's no part of the human heart which is not our responsibility." "Was there anything else?" "Do you find it a solitary existence?" "Yes." "Often." "Does that worry you?" "No." "No." "Thank you." "You've been most helpful." "What the Dickens was that thing on his face?" "You're too late." "We finished half an hour ago." "No-one's talking." "Your lot, they've closed ranks." " My lot?" " Yeah, you were there last night." "They trust you." "They'll talk to you." "Mr. Chambers?" "I have a job." " You're off duty now, aren't you?" " I'm never off duty." "We need to talk about the parish council." "I'm so sorry, Mr. Brant." "Urgent church business." "They'll never be "my lot", Geordie."

"I was never sure why." "We danced all night." "Were married within the year." "She could be brusque sometimes." "Offhand." "Poor Jen." "The plump scholarship girl." " She took the brunt of it." " She made me..." " utterly miserable." " I mean, rest in peace, but if there's one thing I can't stand, it's a bully." "And she was the worst kind." "All smiles while kicking Jen in the teeth." "Lilian went outside for some air." "She usually comes back after a while." "Once she's made her point." " I went to bed." " Alone?" " Yes, alone." " Can anyone verify?" " I went to bed." " Alone?" " Yes, alone." " Can anyone verify?" " My maid." " Madam went off in a strop." "Sir had a Scotch." "She's always going off in strops." "He's always drinking Scotch." "Guy and I..." "weren't really speaking." "I thought he'd been appalling to Johnny." "So I went to bed." "My lodger saw me come in." "He's a homosexual." "And the engagement ring?" "Jennifer was admiring it, so I passed it to her and then it went to..." "Johnny." "Johnny gave it to me." "I passed it to Lilian." "That was when he spilt the champagne." "It's obvious." "He did it on purpose to create a distraction." "Johnny Johnson." "That's your man." " Johnny Johnson." " Perfectly ridiculous name." "Is that it?" "Well, that wasn't too bad, was it?"

"If you don't pass the port with your right hand or piss with your left, you don't count." "It's the way it's always been." "Johnny, you, me, we're not one of them." " Even you?" " Even me." "And it's..." "It's to the left." "Pass the port to the left." "Johnny's got previous." "Conviction for burglary." "There was a lot of wealth on show that night." " Maybe he saw an opportunity." " Johnny did not kill Lilian." "He didn't know where she lived." "He came home with us!" "Why commit a second crime when everyone already blames you for a first?" " Why do that?" " All right!" "Bloody hell!" "Another?" "Geordie..." "Do you think we have a problem with alcohol?" "Absolutely." "We don't have any." "Sandy!" "Get down!" "Stay down!" "It's your birthday soon." "Do you remember last year?" "We had a picnic on the Cam." "There were times when I didn't really like Lilian." "Is that a terrible thing to say?" "Not at all." "Do you believe in curses?" "No." "My ring." "Guy's ring." "His mother left it." "She abandoned the family when Guy was barely five." "Doesn't speak much of love, does it?" "Guy's father and my father are old friends." "What I thought of the match was... was rather low down the list of priorities." "He will make a good husband." "What if I don't make a good wife?" "Sidney!" "Sidney, quick!" "Quick!" " Where is it?" "Where is it?" "!" " Guy..." "No, I want my property back now!" " Let's go downstairs." " The police aren't doing anything." " We all know it was him." " Back off!" "I'm serious." " Bastard!" " Downstairs now!" " Johnny, no!" " I didn't nick anything!" "I didn't kill anyone!" "Johnny!" "They're not mine." "They're..." "They're Lilian's." "Johnny..." "He looked like a criminal to me." "It's his brow." "Johnny is the criminal brow." "It slopes." "My Ronnie's was the same." "Well, that's conclusive, then." "I know what you're thinking." "Poor Jen and her fanciful expectations." "Always falling for the wrong sort." "Always disappointed in the end." "How well do you really know him?" "You're supposed to think the best of people, Sidney." "He couldn't have killed Lilian." "I know, because he was with me." "He was in bed with me." "She told you, did she?" "Bless her." "She thinks that'll give me an alibi." "But we weren't together all night." "Old Bill will still think I had opportunity." " Everyone believes you killed her." " Of course they do." "Cos they've got no imagination." " And what do YOU think?" " I think they're wrong." "See?" "Imagination." "You've got to get me out of here." "I'll do what I can." "God bless you." "God bless you, Sidney." "You're the first person since my ordination to say that." "Pointless exercise, I'm afraid." "We won't see the ring again." "These criminals have a way of making things disappear." "Perhaps now this jazz fellow's been arrested, we can all put this behind us." "We've been at sixes and sevens." "Amanda especially." "Thank goodness she has Guy." "Been an absolute rock." " Wonderful chap." " He is." "Excellent match, don't you think?" "Good family, of course." "Not that Guy's one of those stuffy old-fashioned sorts." "He'll let her keep her job if she wants that." "No, she's lucky." "If you don't mind my saying, she doesn't seem very happy for someone so lucky." "She'd be a darn sight unhappier if the marriage doesn't go ahead." "I'm sure you've seen it before." "Situation like that can cause all sorts of rifts." "Tear a family apart." "I'll let you get on, Sidney." "Doubt we'll have much call to see you from now on." "These poor men." "It's tragic, really, what alcohol did to them." " Is that fruit cake?" " It's for the archdeacon." "Why are you making cake for the archdeacon?" "Never you mind." "Never make cake for me." "Burning the candle at both ends?" "I'm fine." "Grant, Lord, that he may not admit willingly into his soul any thought contrary to thy love." "And that he'll remove those books from the floor, so that I can get to the carpet." "We're between carpets at the moment." "You're Lilian, I'm the murderer." "I grab you by the necklace, I strangle you." "I take the jewellery and then I push." "And you dash your head open?" " On what?" " Exactly." "It's just water." "There's no point of impact." "So we're working on the theory she died elsewhere?" "She hit the edge of something hard and straight." "Like..." "a stair." "A stair?" "Madam went off in a strop and Sir had a whisky." "Edna, do you know your Ten Commandments?" " I should hope so." " What do they say about lying?" "Thou must not tell fibs." "And are you telling fibs now, Edna?" "He's been ever so nice to me." "And I've dropped a lot of crockery." "Sir made me scrub the place from top to bottom, but it wouldn't come off." "So he put the old carpet back down." "Edna?" "I'll be working upstairs." "On the way home, I didn't have enough money to pay the driver." "Lilian said I was useless." "Worse than useless." "We argued." "It got vicious." "I said some awful things." " So did she." " So, you grabbed her." " I didn't mean for it to happen." " You pushed her." "It was an accident." "You must believe me." "Throwing her body in the river." "Planting the jewellery on Mr. Johnson." "Was that an accident too?" "And Amanda's engagement ring?" " Did you take it?" " No." "Why would I?" "So, a coincidence, then?" "Yes." "Money to pay the driver." "Does that sound like the straw that broke the camel's back?" "Sometimes it's patently obvious you're a bachelor." "I'm all right." "I'm alright." "Have you lost weight?" "You have, haven't you?" " Jen..." " Don't you think he's lost weight?" " He's only been here a day." " My poor Teddy Bear!" "Jen..." "Can I go now?" "Since Miss Kendall's engagement ring has failed to turn up..." "Her father's still pressing charges!" "He must know people in high places." "Teddy Bear!" "Not one I've heard before." "Sweet William." "Sidney!" "We got the wasp's nest." "Only three stings apiece." " What are you doing?" " Is it subterfuge?" "Top-secret subterfuge." "Keep your father busy, will you?" "Thank you." "Geordie!" "Sorry." " William Calthorpe." " What about him?" "He lied." " Course he did." " It was no coincidence." "None of it was coincidence." "If its references you require," "I can supply them." "I have an interest in Russian literature." "And history - all the kings and queens." "I can make an excellent Gin and It." "Leonard, I need you to help me with something." "Anything." "Just say the word." "Forgive me, but isn't this illegal?" "And highly immoral?" " No!" " Yes!" "It's for the greater good, Leonard." " For the greater good." " Absolutely." " Even the stealing?" " Even that." "Leonard?" "What are you doing in my office?" "Excuse me." "That's private..." "I don't understand." "You took the ring." "It was simple enough." "When the champagne was dropped..." "It only needed the simplest sleight of hand." "Where's the ring?" "Sorry, can I interrupt?" "Marriage is an outdated institution." "I earn a decent wage." "Why would I take an engagement ring?" " To distract us." " From what?" "From what Lilian was about to reveal." "My sister has a pet name for Johnny." "Of course she does." "I assumed Lilian had one for William." "Love poems." "Sonnets." "To you." "From Sweet William." "You'd been having an affair." "And now you'd been discovered." "She was letting you know in no uncertain terms..." "Sweet William... .. that she was on to you." "And Sweet William always does what Daddy wants." "She'd had enough." "I won't pretend any more." "I'm tired of pretending." "She was on the verge of..." "blowing your cover." "And that's when you did it." "Where's the ring?" " Did Lilian call you to the house?" " Or did you just turn up?" "To confront the matter?" " We need to have a conversation." " It's not the time." "Where's Lilian?" "You argued." "You pushed her." "You took the rings from her hand." "Johnny Johnson was already suspected of a theft." "Why not another?" "And now..." "murder too." "If I took Amanda's ring, where is it?" "You didn't take it for financial gain or revenge." "So why remove it from the house at all?" "Open it." "Go on." "You hid it in the last place anyone would think of looking." "Daphne." "The wife of a future MP." "My father considered Lilian a more appropriate match." "Didn't stop you carrying on, though, did it?" "How long was it going on?" "Lilian found one of the letters... not long after we were married." "I told her it was over, but..." "Daphne made me feel alive." "Your sister." "She's the only one of us who got it right." "She doesn't care what people think." "Johnny's the man she loves." "That's all that matters." "The rest of us... we're all just cowards." "No!" "No, you don't!" "I found your old copy broken." " Thank you." " Not at all." " Mine next." " It's not another dog, is it?" "I gave the archdeacon one of my fruit cakes, and now we have a new addition." "I don't want you found dead, Mr. Chambers." "You must be starving, let me get you a sandwich." "I told him straight out that it didn't suit him." "You didn't?" " Bit of music?" " Yes, put it on." "Thank you." "She's under the impression it was the archdeacon's love of fruit cake that got me the position." "She does make an exceptional fruit cake." " Irish?" " Had to be." "Happy birthday." "Do you dance, Mrs. Maguire?" "Not since my Ronnie went." " Come and dance." " I can't be long." "I have to get back to London." "It's where you like to walk." "A most un-Christian landscape." " What the Dickens...?" " What the Dickens?" "I have something of yours." "He will make a wonderful husband." "And you will make a wonderful wife." "Jesus tells us," ""Love one another as I have loved you."" "Loving one another and giving with all our heart is something we should strive to do always." "And now these three remain." "Faith, hope..." ".. and love." "Happy birthday, Sidney." "But the greatest of these... .. is love." "We very much hope to be married." "Arthur Evans is trying to do me in." "How would you feel about marrying us in Grantchester?" " Have you been a curate before?" " No." "One of the most fascinating and major alternatives to the categorical imperative - utilitarianism." "Are you happy to take the wedding?" "I've never seen a person dead." "What we have to consider here is the matter of intent." "If this was murder, she knew her attacker." "Gotcha!"
