created in the motion picture of The Third Man with

That was the shot that killed Harry Lyons. He died
in a sewer beneath the Yella. Those of you know
who saw the movies The Third Man, Yes, that was
the end of a line, but it was not the beginning.
He had many lines, and I can tell you about
(01:14):
all of them, how because my name is Harry nine.
A diamond as big as a hen's egg, changed that
to a duck's egg, and I held it right.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Here in my hands. That's that I had any idea
of keeping it.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
You understand, I was merely recovering it to return it
to its rightful owner right here. Hollow laughter. All right,

you promise to take me to the picture? I insider.
I didn't know this was going to turn out, not teddy.
Speaker 6 (03:28):
If it's just that you're broke as usual and can't
afford to anyone, Let's walk in Hyde Park or feed
the pigeons in.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
Trafalgar Square something. There's no need to spoil our evening altogether.
Speaker 7 (03:37):
No, it's not that bad. Honestly, I have got a job.
The news editor wished it on me.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Just as I was leaving.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
What do you have to do?
Speaker 7 (03:43):

I've gotten appointed with him.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
At the hotel.
Speaker 5 (03:48):

to see him about?
Speaker 6 (03:51):
I've ever heard of Ocanodia, those little Balksta that's right. Well,
three years ago there was a revolution and the monarchy
was deposed, and what's ironically known as a people's Republic
took its place.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
I'm the last playing out.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Some of the royal family escaped to London with the
Crown jewels.
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Have they been here in the safety bars it ever since?
The jewels?
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Incidentally, the pis Dell Resistance, as they say, is the
Bohemian Star.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Oh I thought that was an opera.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
The look the Bohemian Star is the centerpiece of the sector,
a huge single diamond, almost as big as the culinel.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Next, my engagement ring look a bit silly, doesn't this?
I always had a suspicion you were getting me on
the chief Well, I like cheap? What that cost me
a week salary? It hadn't God? You better demand and
increase the grounds starting anyway? What are Senyor watch his
nabe said the Jews. Senor Alvarez is a leading jeweler
of Buenosale.
Speaker 7 (04:44):
It seems the National Museum of the Argentine once a
reptica of the Boucanovian Crown jewels from exhibition of some sort,
and so the Senyor has been sent to take photographs, sketches,
you know, measurements and so on. And when he gets home,
he'll rebduce the whole collection in patients.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
Well it sounds alty down to me, and for that
I have to miss down and well who cares about him?
I have to miss Betty graywll con't you get out
of it somehow? No, I'm sorry, darling, not a chot.
Speaker 2 (05:14):

particularly diamonds, particularly big diamonds.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
My night was free.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I was feeling in a benevolent mood, so I did
what anyone might have done.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Excuse me.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I hope you will forget my rudeness, but I couldn't
help overhearing a conversation, I thought maybe I can help
you out if you'd let me. Perhaps i'd better introduce
myself first.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
My name is Paul Atkinson, Poor Atkinson.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
It's not the Pa Atkinson of a Medican associated prison.
Speaker 3 (05:50):

Won't you sit downe? Oh? Thanks?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
It's an interview you have to do? Is sort of
spoiling your evening together.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
I understand, just one of those things.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
You have nothing we can do about it.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
I'm afraid one do you have to turn your copy

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Your story for you.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yes, but like that, why not I have any girlfriends
to take out? Pretty poor a newspaper man. It won't
help a colleague when the chance it turns out.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
No, it's kind of you, but I couldn't dream of
in personally like administer recison.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
For the record, and my friends call me Paul. I
assure you it's no imposition. Of course, if you're scared,
I won't turn in a story up to stand it.
Speaker 5 (06:48):
Oh god, look, it's not bad.
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Why you couldn't write a bad story if you tried?
Speaker 5 (06:51):
But what was I able to say if you found out?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I was going to tell him you and me you're bad?
Here covers there's another way out. You go off to
your in you and I'll take that to the movie.

as that.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Then eight thirty, yes, old man, I'm not doing you
a good turn, You're doing one for me.

Speaker 2 (07:31):

smooth South American time. He introduced himself as our vis
and invited me in. We drank each other's health, and
then we settled down to business.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
I am not very accustomed to be interviewed, senior a freeman.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
What is the procedures? Easy?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
It's easy.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I asked the questions, and you answer, well, now your
job is to work out the precise measurements, as I
understand it, the jewels and their settings, so you can
make exact replicas with them.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Is that right, Berkeley? But you understand it is much
more than a matter of new measurement.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Oh, yes, yes, I guess it must be.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
There is the color of the various Jews in.
Speaker 8 (08:08):
Lessons, and some of the settings are of.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Extremely intricate plot.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
I'm saying how.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
Did you fix it to gain access to the due?
And it was necessary for me.
Speaker 8 (08:18):

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Extent you found in cooperate.
Speaker 8 (08:22):
Well, naturally one does not expect these favors, but there
will be a.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
Certain how shall I put it? Financial adjustment as I see.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Well, how long do you think of the job will
take you?
Speaker 5 (08:34):

That's a routine.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
The routine, Well, I dare say there's an armed guards
or another.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Of course that is inevitable. The bohemian start alone is
worth five hundreds.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Yes, it's two million dollars.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Who provides this guy? The insurance company.
Speaker 8 (08:56):

Not tell me, say you could it be arranged for
me to come along one day? And what you actually
worth I cannot say as to that like a much
better story, you know better, so, but.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
It would be a metaphor of the Backavinion. I thought it.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Okay, okay, I'm putting an application tomorrow when you support
it naturally, fine, I settled in and now I guess
i'll that must.
Speaker 3 (09:33):

Speaker 5 (09:51):
The detectives and you will remove the real jeel and
sweep this money.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
Manuel, we have company, and to talk like that was all?
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Who is this man?
Speaker 8 (10:02):
This is a gentleman named Freeman, a reporter from the
evening class.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Well, thanks very.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Much for the interview, Senior. Now if you don't mind, well,
I have to go on back to the office.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
You can wait an let me put you ada. Thanks
very much. I think I can't stay. I think it's better,
sen This gun is loaded.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Oh that's the idea.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
You do not think we could let you go after
what you had Wait a minute, I'm not sorry.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Guy was around shooting off his mouth. I keep quiet.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
It is my intention to see you do keep quiet.
Such as we could kill you.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
I suppose you could, but you won't.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
What makes you so sure?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
These walls aren't very sound proof? The shot would be heard.
I have a knife. Okay, you could kill me with
your little knife? Then what how do you having an
odd body lying about the place?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
That proved a little embarrassed? English?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
You never can seal one in here. If you're just
getting it out without being caught.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
There would be certain difficulties a loss. Though.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
You have to trust me, I.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Have to, you know, one moment in your There are other.
Speaker 8 (11:20):
Ways, for instance, Well this, oh man, Well I have
told you before I did test.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Violence that you give him class for a little violent.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You know, I've been thinking, why should I reporter on
an English newspaper be an American?
Speaker 5 (11:39):
And I dare say it does happen? Sis? Perhaps so,
but you must admit it is unusual. What are you
looking for in his pocket papers? Ah? A letter?
Speaker 9 (11:50):
There?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
What did I tell you? It is addressed to Harry
lyon Harry Lane.
Speaker 8 (11:54):
You know that, of course, so does every police department
in the world you mean, I mean that compared with him,
we are amateur, so that we must do something. Manuel,
I know.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
I will drive the.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Car to the back entrance and we will take him
down the backstairs like he is.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Now, why not, we will be seen. We will say
he's drunk. Then we'll drive him to the country and.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Disposes him as himself would say.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
Take him. Aye, don't be foolish. There will be no killing.
Speaker 8 (12:24):
But we are jewel thiefs, not murderous. A man like
Lime would have powerful friends who would stop at nothing
to get even with us.
Speaker 5 (12:34):
Besides, this is England. What is that to do with it?
There is an institution here known as Scotland Yard. It's
certainly efficient.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
I understand.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
I have no wish to die with a rope around
my neck, even if you have very well, you make
a better suggestion.
Speaker 8 (12:49):
All right, we steal the Bohemian start tomorrow right right
tomorrow evening we catch a plane, and next morning we.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
Are in New York, where we have many good friends
who will look after us.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
That's right.
Speaker 8 (13:01):
And then, if it is quite simple, all we have
to do is to keep our friends here quiet.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
For a data and after that it will not matter how.
Speaker 8 (13:08):
Much he talks. Yes, and how are we going to
do that? And that is up to send the other
males on. You must find us a quiet place somewhere,
and that a liable man to see that. Send your
line does not escape till we are clear.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
I will telephone him now you are waking up, Senor.
We are going to take a little journey soon. But
I do not think it wise you should.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Hear in public like this, do you? That's better?
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Pleasant dream Senior.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Orson Wells returns in just a moment, the third man
(14:46):
orson Welles as the third man continues with the Bohemian Star.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
It was early morning when I finally came to when
jaw ached, when Alright said, clipped me and I had
the great granddaddy ever hangover who it lay still for
a while and then took a sort of tentative look around.
The room I was in was small and had a
(15:17):
sort of shot in the feeling. Then I saw something else,
a man, but one of the biggest, toughiest, ugliest.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Characters I've ever creptized.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
On, though in the way he looks sort of nice ugly,
if you know what I mean, not the not the
means type He stood up when he realized I was awakened.
As soon as he spoke, I knew I was right
about it.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Watch it, Jim, have a good sleep a you are
to know?
Speaker 10 (15:51):
Yeah, being slumber and log an innocent babe?
Speaker 3 (15:54):
You have? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
How's your feel I like something to cattract you. The
wouldn't be any coffee on that stove, but there.
Speaker 10 (16:03):
Now, I'll can fix you up with I know it's
cap of tea.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
The kitten will be boiling in a minute. That's fine.
So what's your name? Charlie?
Speaker 10 (16:13):
He's Harry. Pleased to meet Cherry. I'm sure Charlie.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Oh man, where are we that? It'd be chilly? How'd
I get here?
Speaker 10 (16:23):
Sorry, champ, I ain't allowed to give no information, restrictstructions.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I understand. How's that tea coming along? I'll be off
a chick now. I slept again afterwards? What's going on?
From midday? When I woke?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Charlie had some food ready after we eat, and he
suggested a game of privilege.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Passed the time. I disapprove of gambling.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Except maybe poking for real steaks and a few aces
up asleep, but my only hope was to culivate Charlie,
and thank goodness, he was no hard house flowers. So
we settled down to play half about an hour. I
judged the time for actions right.
Speaker 10 (17:11):
Fifteen to two, fifteen to four, A pair of six
and one for.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
These nobe seer puts me out.
Speaker 3 (17:18):

Floor atual jump off, quick, come.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Up, Thank you, Charlie, thank you one more for luck.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Sorry Charlie, oh man, you're a nice guy. I tore
up a sheet and bound and gagged. Charlie had some
keys in the pocket. I let myself out and I
guess i'd been right out somewhere in the East End.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I walked, I found the main road and then called
a can.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Where don the hotel?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Flandee? Now, w fair if you get me down in
fifteen minutes, right, hang on.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
There's only one way to tackle this chab the bold approach.
That's a splendid I went straight over the desk and
asked for singer. Obadis sly say, he's not in the present,
Well how about a secretary, Well he's not in artist
they haven't checked out that they're still staying here leave by.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Playing for New York this seasoning.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
I understand that is there, is there anybody? No?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
No, no thanks, That's that's okay. So they hadn't made
the snatch shit. I had no idea where the safety
buzz it was, so all I could do was wait.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Found this part. I could keep out of sight and
watch the elevator at the same time.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
An hour passed, an hour and a half, and then
then they were Their elevator.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Started to rise.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I took the stairs three at a time. I reached
the third floors as the door of the suite was
closing behind him. I wanted the Bohemian Star. Nothing greedy,
you understand.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
But now I'll never gun in hand across the bill.
You good afternoon, gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I wouldn't reach for a gunnet are you nor you
are each Sunday and I should have wished to commit suicide.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
I just keep your hands well up. Ah, that's much
more sensible. How did you get here?
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I got here by cab.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
If it's any particular, I said, Oh, Johnnie, don't worry
about him, he'll get over it.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Come on, let's go into the sitting room, have a
nice cozy talk after you signor and you.
Speaker 2 (20:00):

If you are a mistick and said you have.
Speaker 3 (20:09):

be some misunderstanding.
Speaker 2 (20:12):

and I we hit.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
Me considering I have the stone and this guy and
that things rather obvious.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Sort of thing.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
What I mean is that we made a mistake when
we met last night, not inviting you to join us
in this enterprise.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Oh what gives you the idea that I might have
joined you and Harry Lena. Are you not correct me
if I'm wrong?
Speaker 8 (21:14):
But surely our object in this case has been the
same to obtain the Pohemian Star.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Our object maybe, but not our purpose.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
You speaking riddles?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Not at all man. You stole this duel for your
own enrichment. I've taken it from you now to return
it to its rightful owner.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
It's rightful owner. You will pardon us if we smile.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
So you don't believe me? Okay, sit down, gentlemen. A
little telephoning to do Hello? Operate again with white or
want to?
Speaker 5 (21:43):
Want to?
Speaker 3 (21:44):

down that telephone before it is too late. You just
make up Hello? Is that scott on your arms? Or
lively even bother with that cold? What's the idea? Who
are you guys?
Speaker 11 (21:59):
I'm Detective Inspector Marshall. This is my assistant Heart and Andrews.
And that's a fast How do I know you were
on the level?
Speaker 5 (22:06):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Here's my one card. You have to know us picture.
That's all seems you know.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Sorry I sounded suspicious, but you know you might have
been a couple of crooks too.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Of course the point.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
Hadn't occurred to me. You have made a great mistake
and you are well.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
We'll test that out of the yard later. Take him away. Ston.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Well, I'm certainly grad you turned up and he did.
I can't figure out.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That's how you got in so quietly. My ears don't
miss much. And I'll swear I never heard that front
door open.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
Of course you didn't. We've been here all the time,
here in this actual room, behind those curtains.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Well, i'll be dying, and once in more we're.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
A friend of yours. You can come out now, mister Freeman.
Speaker 10 (22:47):
Tell you I don't get all this.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
It's all quite simply explain. When you didn't turn up
this morning, I got a bit worried, so I phoned
the AP and they told me Paul Atkinson was in Malaya.
Then I went round to the yard and gave the
whole story.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
To inspect the marsha and you figured there must be
some dirty workers.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
Well, it did seem that something odd was going on,
doubly odd.
Speaker 11 (23:08):
When I rang the Argentine embassy and they denied all
knowledge about Lauris and its.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
So the management let us in.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Here while they were away.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
We were just about to announce ourselves and find out
one was what when the door bill rang and you
came in.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
So you figured you wait a while and see what happens?
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Is that it exactly?
Speaker 3 (23:24):
I say? What is it?
Speaker 5 (23:26):
Just as well?
Speaker 3 (23:27):
I'm not a crook, isn't it? I mean?
Speaker 2 (23:28):
If I tried to get away with a bohemian star
instead of falling the yard, I'd have found.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Myself in a lovely jam, wouldn't I?
Speaker 11 (23:35):
And I saw him pretend we didn't suspect you for
a while, mister lyme, But we know now that you're
an honest man.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
It's not everyone who'd risk his life. So where you've done?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Oh, that's that's okay.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, I guess you better take this stone, inspect you
urby grad to see the last of it.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Oh and thanks, of course, you realize there'll be at
a war?
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Oh no, please, please are.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
But my dear fellow, it's no more title too, don't
you agree, mister freemant? Now suddenly I would see.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
The matters taken up with the Bocanevian autholotis, and you'll
hear from them in due course.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well, if you insist, though, after all, I was only
doing my duty. And you don't telling I really didn't
intend writing that story. If you I'm sorry I slept
up on it. If you didn't get into too much
trouble with your news editor, well it was a bit
of a row. Oh it will be, old man, it
will be. There's way he sees the story you've got
from Now.
Speaker 9 (24:42):
Harry Lyme returns in just the moment, and.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Now Verry lime right here.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Maybe i'd better hand in a little explanation.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
You're wondering what particular stroke of luck or lunacy led
your old friend Harry to settle for just a reward,
not to try for the diamond. It's at LEAs while
the going was good. Well, first of all, it was
a very tidy little reward. And secondly, when I first
came into that room, I just happened to notice the
tip of what was unmistakably the shoe of a policeman sticking.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Out out of the curtains. Now you may think that,
knowing I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Alone with a couple of crooks, that the realization that
Scotland Yard was tuned in on our conversation had something
to do with my decision to shall we say, play
it straight. That's what you may think. In fact, you'd
be silly not to.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
It.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
It's from press, it.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
It it it its Internet in.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
It.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
It's from
Speaker 8 (28:06):
Its nick, its snip snip sa
Presenting Orson Wells as the Third Man. The Lives of
Harry Lyme, the Fabulous stories of the immortal character, originally
created in the motion picture of The Third Man with
(00:43):
souther music by Anton Carris.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
That was the shot that killed Harry Lyons. He died
in a sewer beneath the Yella. Those of you know
who saw the movies The Third Man, Yes, that was
the end of a line, but it was not the beginning.
He had many lines, and I can tell you about
(01:14):
all of them, how because my name is Harry nine.
A diamond as big as a hen's egg, changed that
to a duck's egg, and I held it right.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Here in my hands. That's that I had any idea
of keeping it.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
You understand, I was merely recovering it to return it
to its rightful owner right here. Hollow laughter. All right,
you know I have to take my word for it
to as Scotland. Yeah, I get them to show you
the finals. What do you think I am a crook?
Speaker 4 (02:44):
And now Orson Wells as Harry Lymes, the Third Man
in The Bohemian Star.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
London, nineteen thirty eight.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
One of those quaint oldis you know, cubiggles around the
world see it together a boy.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
And a girl.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
I had to look at it either as a girl
peaches and cream, a wonderful English in the next Cubi girl,
A handsome, distinguished looking American Harry lyon me. Not eavesdropping,
of course, just interested in a casual sort of wood.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
You mean to say you have to work? Yes, would
you promise to take me to the picture? I insider.
I didn't know this was going to turn out, not teddy.
Speaker 6 (03:28):
If it's just that you're broke as usual and can't
afford to anyone, Let's walk in Hyde Park or feed
the pigeons in.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
Trafalgar Square something. There's no need to spoil our evening altogether.
Speaker 7 (03:37):
No, it's not that bad. Honestly, I have got a job.
The news editor wished it on me.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Just as I was leaving.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
What do you have to do?
Speaker 7 (03:43):
It's an interview some South American Johnny or senior Alvarez.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
I've gotten appointed with him.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
At the hotel.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Spend it at eight thirty. What is it you have
to see him about?
Speaker 6 (03:51):
I've ever heard of Ocanodia, those little Balksta that's right. Well,
three years ago there was a revolution and the monarchy
was deposed, and what's ironically known as a people's Republic
took its place.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
I'm the last playing out.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Some of the royal family escaped to London with the
Crown jewels.
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Have they been here in the safety bars it ever since?
The jewels?
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Incidentally, the pis Dell Resistance, as they say, is the
Bohemian Star.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Oh I thought that was an opera.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
The look the Bohemian Star is the centerpiece of the sector,
a huge single diamond, almost as big as the culinel.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Next, my engagement ring look a bit silly, doesn't this?
I always had a suspicion you were getting me on
the chief Well, I like cheap? What that cost me
a week salary? It hadn't God? You better demand and
increase the grounds starting anyway? What are Senyor watch his
nabe said the Jews. Senor Alvarez is a leading jeweler
of Buenosale.
Speaker 7 (04:44):
It seems the National Museum of the Argentine once a
reptica of the Boucanovian Crown jewels from exhibition of some sort,
and so the Senyor has been sent to take photographs, sketches,
you know, measurements and so on. And when he gets home,
he'll rebduce the whole collection in patients.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
Well it sounds alty down to me, and for that
I have to miss down and well who cares about him?
I have to miss Betty graywll con't you get out
of it somehow? No, I'm sorry, darling, not a chot.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I've always had an interest in jewels, purely academic, of course,
particularly diamonds, particularly big diamonds.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
My night was free.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I was feeling in a benevolent mood, so I did
what anyone might have done.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Excuse me.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I hope you will forget my rudeness, but I couldn't
help overhearing a conversation, I thought maybe I can help
you out if you'd let me. Perhaps i'd better introduce
myself first.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
My name is Paul Atkinson, Poor Atkinson.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
It's not the Pa Atkinson of a Medican associated prison.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
I do an occasional stint for the AP.
Speaker 7 (05:53):
Oh my gosh, I read your audios every week.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
I'm Terry Freeman of the Clarion.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Terry.
Speaker 5 (05:59):
This is my feeling to say, paths.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
How do you do?
Speaker 5 (06:02):
Won't you sit downe? Oh? Thanks?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
It's an interview you have to do? Is sort of
spoiling your evening together.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
I understand, just one of those things.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
You have nothing we can do about it.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
I'm afraid one do you have to turn your copy
in ten o'clock tomorrow morning.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Ten. I'll do better than that.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I'll deliver it personally to you at nine on the dot,
guaranteed I don't call it.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
When you two kids go.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
After your movie, I'll interview this guy out Varis and write.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Your story for you.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Yes, but like that, why not I have any girlfriends
to take out? Pretty poor a newspaper man. It won't
help a colleague when the chance it turns out.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
No, it's kind of you, but I couldn't dream of
in personally like administer recison.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
For the record, and my friends call me Paul. I
assure you it's no imposition. Of course, if you're scared,
I won't turn in a story up to stand it.
Speaker 5 (06:48):
Oh god, look, it's not bad.
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Why you couldn't write a bad story if you tried?
Speaker 5 (06:51):
But what was I able to say if you found out?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I was going to tell him you and me you're bad?
Here covers there's another way out. You go off to
your in you and I'll take that to the movie.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
H I wouldn't trust even a newspaper man as far
as that.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Okay, then they are splendid.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Then eight thirty, yes, old man, I'm not doing you
a good turn, You're doing one for me.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
On the dot of eight.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Thirty, I pressed the bell the Sweet Sea third floor Hotel, Splundie.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
I hadn't figured out any planet campaign.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
You understand, it was just the sort of preliminary survey,
smooth South American time. He introduced himself as our vis
and invited me in. We drank each other's health, and
then we settled down to business.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
I am not very accustomed to be interviewed, senior a freeman.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
What is the procedures? Easy?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
It's easy.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I asked the questions, and you answer, well, now your
job is to work out the precise measurements, as I
understand it, the jewels and their settings, so you can
make exact replicas with them.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Is that right, Berkeley? But you understand it is much
more than a matter of new measurement.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Oh, yes, yes, I guess it must be.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
There is the color of the various Jews in.
Speaker 8 (08:08):
Lessons, and some of the settings are of.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Extremely intricate plot.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
I'm saying how.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
Did you fix it to gain access to the due?
And it was necessary for me.
Speaker 8 (08:18):
To make formal application to the Bacabinian the Royal court in.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Extent you found in cooperate.
Speaker 8 (08:22):
Well, naturally one does not expect these favors, but there
will be a.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
Certain how shall I put it? Financial adjustment as I see.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Well, how long do you think of the job will
take you?
Speaker 5 (08:34):
I hope to complete it in the none.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
How long you've been on it now? Just a week?
That's a routine.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
The routine, Well, I dare say there's an armed guards
or another.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Of course that is inevitable. The bohemian start alone is
worth five hundreds.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Yes, it's two million dollars.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Who provides this guy? The insurance company.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
There is a room at the safety posit and each
morning the itematic but it's taken in there and divert.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
The under observation. Yes, there are.
Speaker 8 (09:04):
Two detectives who never take their eyes of me or
my secretary.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
So you have a secretary to yes, manoelas you.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Should hear soon, so perhaps you will meet him.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
That's fine.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Not tell me, say you could it be arranged for
me to come along one day? And what you actually
worth I cannot say as to that like a much
better story, you know better, so, but.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
It would be a metaphor of the Backavinion. I thought it.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Okay, okay, I'm putting an application tomorrow when you support
it naturally, fine, I settled in and now I guess
i'll that must.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Be my secretary. Now I am here, Manuel, Everything is fixed, Pedro.
Speaker 5 (09:39):
That's very obliging.
Speaker 8 (09:40):
Gentlemens in your minds and it's finished, the fast copy
of the Oginion Star, and I have it with me now,
regard is my friends.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
Tomorrow inh the.
Speaker 8 (09:48):
Right moment comes, I will distract the attention of.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
The detectives and you will remove the real jeel and
sweep this money.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
Manuel, we have company, and to talk like that was all?
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Who is this man?
Speaker 8 (10:02):
This is a gentleman named Freeman, a reporter from the
evening class.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Well, thanks very.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Much for the interview, Senior. Now if you don't mind, well,
I have to go on back to the office.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
You can wait an let me put you ada. Thanks
very much. I think I can't stay. I think it's better,
sen This gun is loaded.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Oh that's the idea.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
You do not think we could let you go after
what you had Wait a minute, I'm not sorry.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Guy was around shooting off his mouth. I keep quiet.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
It is my intention to see you do keep quiet.
Such as we could kill you.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
I suppose you could, but you won't.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
What makes you so sure?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
These walls aren't very sound proof? The shot would be heard.
I have a knife. Okay, you could kill me with
your little knife? Then what how do you having an
odd body lying about the place?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
That proved a little embarrassed? English?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
You never can seal one in here. If you're just
getting it out without being caught.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
There would be certain difficulties a loss. Though.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
You have to trust me, I.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Have to, you know, one moment in your There are other.
Speaker 8 (11:20):
Ways, for instance, Well this, oh man, Well I have
told you before I did test.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Violence that you give him class for a little violent.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You know, I've been thinking, why should I reporter on
an English newspaper be an American?
Speaker 5 (11:39):
And I dare say it does happen? Sis? Perhaps so,
but you must admit it is unusual. What are you
looking for in his pocket papers? Ah? A letter?
Speaker 9 (11:50):
There?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
What did I tell you? It is addressed to Harry
lyon Harry Lane.
Speaker 8 (11:54):
You know that, of course, so does every police department
in the world you mean, I mean that compared with him,
we are amateur, so that we must do something. Manuel,
I know.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
I will drive the.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Car to the back entrance and we will take him
down the backstairs like he is.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Now, why not, we will be seen. We will say
he's drunk. Then we'll drive him to the country and.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Disposes him as himself would say.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
Take him. Aye, don't be foolish. There will be no killing.
Speaker 8 (12:24):
But we are jewel thiefs, not murderous. A man like
Lime would have powerful friends who would stop at nothing
to get even with us.
Speaker 5 (12:34):
Besides, this is England. What is that to do with it?
There is an institution here known as Scotland Yard. It's
certainly efficient.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
I understand.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
I have no wish to die with a rope around
my neck, even if you have very well, you make
a better suggestion.
Speaker 8 (12:49):
All right, we steal the Bohemian start tomorrow right right
tomorrow evening we catch a plane, and next morning we.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
Are in New York, where we have many good friends
who will look after us.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
That's right.
Speaker 8 (13:01):
And then, if it is quite simple, all we have
to do is to keep our friends here quiet.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
For a data and after that it will not matter how.
Speaker 8 (13:08):
Much he talks. Yes, and how are we going to
do that? And that is up to send the other
males on. You must find us a quiet place somewhere,
and that a liable man to see that. Send your
line does not escape till we are clear.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
I will telephone him now you are waking up, Senor.
We are going to take a little journey soon. But
I do not think it wise you should.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Hear in public like this, do you? That's better?
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Pleasant dream Senior.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Orson Wells returns in just a moment, the third man
(14:46):
orson Welles as the third man continues with the Bohemian Star.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
It was early morning when I finally came to when
jaw ached, when Alright said, clipped me and I had
the great granddaddy ever hangover who it lay still for
a while and then took a sort of tentative look around.
The room I was in was small and had a
(15:17):
sort of shot in the feeling. Then I saw something else,
a man, but one of the biggest, toughiest, ugliest.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Characters I've ever creptized.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
On, though in the way he looks sort of nice ugly,
if you know what I mean, not the not the
means type He stood up when he realized I was awakened.
As soon as he spoke, I knew I was right
about it.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Watch it, Jim, have a good sleep a you are
to know?
Speaker 10 (15:51):
Yeah, being slumber and log an innocent babe?
Speaker 3 (15:54):
You have? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
How's your feel I like something to cattract you. The
wouldn't be any coffee on that stove, but there.
Speaker 10 (16:03):
Now, I'll can fix you up with I know it's
cap of tea.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
The kitten will be boiling in a minute. That's fine.
So what's your name? Charlie?
Speaker 10 (16:13):
He's Harry. Pleased to meet Cherry. I'm sure Charlie.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Oh man, where are we that? It'd be chilly? How'd
I get here?
Speaker 10 (16:23):
Sorry, champ, I ain't allowed to give no information, restrictstructions.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I understand. How's that tea coming along? I'll be off
a chick now. I slept again afterwards? What's going on?
From midday? When I woke?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Charlie had some food ready after we eat, and he
suggested a game of privilege.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Passed the time. I disapprove of gambling.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Except maybe poking for real steaks and a few aces
up asleep, but my only hope was to culivate Charlie,
and thank goodness, he was no hard house flowers. So
we settled down to play half about an hour. I
judged the time for actions right.
Speaker 10 (17:11):
Fifteen to two, fifteen to four, A pair of six
and one for.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
These nobe seer puts me out.
Speaker 3 (17:18):

them all over the.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Floor atual jump off, quick, come.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Up, Thank you, Charlie, thank you one more for luck.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Sorry Charlie, oh man, you're a nice guy. I tore
up a sheet and bound and gagged. Charlie had some
keys in the pocket. I let myself out and I
guess i'd been right out somewhere in the East End.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I walked, I found the main road and then called
a can.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Where don the hotel?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Flandee? Now, w fair if you get me down in
fifteen minutes, right, hang on.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
There's only one way to tackle this chab the bold approach.
That's a splendid I went straight over the desk and
asked for singer. Obadis sly say, he's not in the present,
Well how about a secretary, Well he's not in artist
they haven't checked out that they're still staying here leave by.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Playing for New York this seasoning.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
I understand that is there, is there anybody? No?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
No, no thanks, That's that's okay. So they hadn't made
the snatch shit. I had no idea where the safety
buzz it was, so all I could do was wait.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Found this part. I could keep out of sight and
watch the elevator at the same time.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
An hour passed, an hour and a half, and then
then they were Their elevator.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Started to rise.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I took the stairs three at a time. I reached
the third floors as the door of the suite was
closing behind him. I wanted the Bohemian Star. Nothing greedy,
you understand.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
But now I'll never gun in hand across the bill.
You good afternoon, gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I wouldn't reach for a gunnet are you nor you
are each Sunday and I should have wished to commit suicide.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
I just keep your hands well up. Ah, that's much
more sensible. How did you get here?
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I got here by cab.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
If it's any particular, I said, Oh, Johnnie, don't worry
about him, he'll get over it.
Speaker 3 (19:54):

nice cozy talk after you signor and you.

that things rather obvious.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Sort of thing.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
What I mean is that we made a mistake when
we met last night, not inviting you to join us
in this enterprise.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Oh what gives you the idea that I might have
joined you and Harry Lena. Are you not correct me
if I'm wrong?
Speaker 8 (21:14):
But surely our object in this case has been the
same to obtain the Pohemian Star.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Our object maybe, but not our purpose.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
You speaking riddles?
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Not at all man. You stole this duel for your
own enrichment. I've taken it from you now to return
it to its rightful owner.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
It's rightful owner. You will pardon us if we smile.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
So you don't believe me? Okay, sit down, gentlemen. A
little telephoning to do Hello? Operate again with white or
want to?
Speaker 5 (21:43):
Want to?
Speaker 3 (21:44):
That is Scotland. You do not mean that you put
down that telephone before it is too late. You just
make up Hello? Is that scott on your arms? Or
lively even bother with that cold? What's the idea? Who
are you guys?
Speaker 11 (21:59):
I'm Detective Inspector Marshall. This is my assistant Heart and Andrews.
And that's a fast How do I know you were
on the level?
Speaker 5 (22:06):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Here's my one card. You have to know us picture.
That's all seems you know.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Sorry I sounded suspicious, but you know you might have
been a couple of crooks too.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Of course the point.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
Hadn't occurred to me. You have made a great mistake
and you are well.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
We'll test that out of the yard later. Take him away. Ston.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Well, I'm certainly grad you turned up and he did.
I can't figure out.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That's how you got in so quietly. My ears don't
miss much. And I'll swear I never heard that front
door open.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
Of course you didn't. We've been here all the time,
here in this actual room, behind those curtains.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Well, i'll be dying, and once in more we're.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
A friend of yours. You can come out now, mister Freeman.
Speaker 10 (22:47):
Tell you I don't get all this.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
It's all quite simply explain. When you didn't turn up
this morning, I got a bit worried, so I phoned
the AP and they told me Paul Atkinson was in Malaya.
Then I went round to the yard and gave the
whole story.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
To inspect the marsha and you figured there must be
some dirty workers.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
Well, it did seem that something odd was going on,
doubly odd.
Speaker 11 (23:08):
When I rang the Argentine embassy and they denied all
knowledge about Lauris and its.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
So the management let us in.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Here while they were away.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
We were just about to announce ourselves and find out
one was what when the door bill rang and you
came in.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
So you figured you wait a while and see what happens?
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Is that it exactly?
Speaker 3 (23:24):
I say? What is it?
Speaker 5 (23:26):
Just as well?
Speaker 3 (23:27):
I'm not a crook, isn't it? I mean?
Speaker 2 (23:28):
If I tried to get away with a bohemian star
instead of falling the yard, I'd have found.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Myself in a lovely jam, wouldn't I?
Speaker 11 (23:35):
And I saw him pretend we didn't suspect you for
a while, mister lyme, But we know now that you're
an honest man.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
It's not everyone who'd risk his life. So where you've done?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Oh, that's that's okay.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, I guess you better take this stone, inspect you
urby grad to see the last of it.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Oh and thanks, of course, you realize there'll be at
a war?
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Oh no, please, please are.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
But my dear fellow, it's no more title too, don't
you agree, mister freemant? Now suddenly I would see.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
The matters taken up with the Bocanevian autholotis, and you'll
hear from them in due course.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well, if you insist, though, after all, I was only
doing my duty. And you don't telling I really didn't
intend writing that story. If you I'm sorry I slept
up on it. If you didn't get into too much
trouble with your news editor, well it was a bit
of a row. Oh it will be, old man, it
will be. There's way he sees the story you've got
from Now.
Speaker 9 (24:42):
Harry Lyme returns in just the moment, and.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Now Verry lime right here.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Maybe i'd better hand in a little explanation.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
You're wondering what particular stroke of luck or lunacy led
your old friend Harry to settle for just a reward,
not to try for the diamond. It's at LEAs while
the going was good. Well, first of all, it was
a very tidy little reward. And secondly, when I first
came into that room, I just happened to notice the
tip of what was unmistakably the shoe of a policeman sticking.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Out out of the curtains. Now you may think that,
knowing I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Alone with a couple of crooks, that the realization that
Scotland Yard was tuned in on our conversation had something
to do with my decision to shall we say, play
it straight. That's what you may think. In fact, you'd
be silly not to.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
It.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
It's from press, it.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
It it it its Internet in.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
It.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
It's from
Speaker 8 (28:06):
Its nick, its snip snip sa
