Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
George Graham:
One second a month, sir! You're either a liar or a fool. --Who're your makers?
John Harrison:
Myself, and my brother James.
George Graham:
Really? Who were you apprenticed to?
John Harrison:
My father, as was he. I am a carpenter by profession.
George Graham:
A carpenter?!
John Harrison:
My timekeepers are made of wood. I've brought some drawings with me.
George Graham:
I'm sorry, I mistook you. This is a joke, sir, am I right? Mr. Halley seeks to derive some pleasure from this contrivance? Is he here, perhaps, hiding in a corner to watch my performance?
John Harrison:
It is I who am sorry, sir! The fault is mine. It was my impression I was here to see a clockmaker; I find myself in a toy shop by mistake! William!
