That's all. Just one more.
00:00:58.032 --> 00:01:01.079
And I've a pretty good idea who it is.
00:01:02.004 --> 00:01:05.517
I'm a lucky man to have caught you at home, Dr. Gilchrist.
00:01:05.999 --> 00:01:07.001
This is most irregular.

I'll bring Teddy out.
00:01:30.998 --> 00:01:32.958
I wouldn't want to alarm the old ladies, seeing a doctor.
00:01:33.006 --> 00:01:35.019
-You wait here. -ln the cemetery?
00:01:35.001 --> 00:01:36.999
