Now tell me your name. Quick.
Pep, sir.
Where do you live?
Over in the village, sir.
Where's your mother?
Here, sir.
Eh?
Also Georgina.
Is that your father along with your mother?
Yes, sir.
In light of this parish.
Who do you live with?
Supposing I let you live, which I haven't made up my mind about.
My sister, sir.
Mrs. Joseph Gardery, wife of the village blacksmith, sir.
You know what a fight is?
Yes, sir.
You know what a vitilis is?
Food.
Right, now.
You get me a fire, get me vitilis tomorrow morning.
You do it.
And don't you never dare say a word about your having seen such a person as me.
You fail.
Your heart and your liver will be tore out, roasted.
At eight.
I'm not alone.
There's a young man here to hear it with me in comparison with which young man I am
an angel.
He hears me words.
Now you can lock your door, be warm in bed, think yourself comfortable and safe, but this
young man will creep his way softly to you and tear you open.
Now I have had great difficulty keeping this young man from harming you.
What do you say?
I promise I'll do it, sir.
Say Lord struck me dead if I don't.
You'll strike me dead if I don't, sir.
Yeah.
Remember what you undertook.
Get down.
Pam, where you been off to?
Mrs. Joe's been out a dozen times looking for you.
Has she?
Yes, she has, old chap.
Once more she got tickler with her.
Joe!
Is he there?
Joe!
Oh, yeah, she's coming.
Here.
Get this between you and then get behind that door.
Hurry now.
And where are you?
We'll be here.
You devil!
You'll be up the churchyard.
I'll only be to the churchyard.
You'll drive me to the churchyard.
I've been out in those marshes one hour looking for you.
And I've been looking for you.
I've been looking for you.
Now, sweet!
You think you caught a chills?
I much of your opinion, boy.
What's bad about these parts?
You ain't brought no one with you?
No, sir. No.
Now you're not a deceiving empire.
Glad you enjoy it.
Thank you. Thank you.
That's all I could do to get the food past him.
Who?
The other young man you were riding with.
What?
Over the far side of the graveyard.
The young man with the...
Scar down his cheek, yes.
Give me a hold of that file quick.
Well, you won't be needing me no more, sir.
We got company, you see. It'd been Christmas-like.
My sister would go mad if I'm not home.
Go on the rampage.
Begging your pardon if there's nothing more.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you, my dear.
Thank you.
Joe, Joe, can I have some soap?
Where's Pip?
That boy is never to be found when he's wanted.
He'll be the death of me, I know.
How fortunate he is. But is he grateful?
Why do you say you're never grateful?
Naturally vicious they are.
How very true.
Merry Christmas, Uncle Humble Duke.
Mr. Wapsle, Mrs. Wapsle.
Merry Christmas.
Sit down, Pip, please.
Joe, Joe, sell the punch.
I am, I did.
He doesn't deserve the news I bring.
What news?
Do you know of Miss Havisham Boy?
Everybody's heard of Miss Havisham, Uncle.
She's the rich lady who lives in the grey house.
Miss Havisham sent me a message to find a boy
to bring there tomorrow morning.
Me?
Why not you?
She could make your fortune.
I wonder if she comes to know our Pip.
She doesn't know the fool. She knows dear Uncle Humble Duke.
What would I be expected to do like?
To play, boy.
They say she's mad.
Who says?
Everyone in the village.
When you're as rich as Miss Havisham,
you're not mad. You're just uncommon.
Joe, I don't think...
You don't have to go now.
But of course he's going.
If she wants our Pip to play there, he'd better play there.
Better than ever, ma'am.
A meal fit for up.
Okay.
A sermon, Joe, a sermon.
We are showered with blessings here today.
True nephew, true.
But now, Uncle...
Oh, why couldn't I?
Surely you'll have a little of my savory pork pie.
Indeed you must, Auntie.
You know there is not another pork pie so delicious in all the county.
Wrong. In all England.
We'll do our best with it.
I'll taste a little to finish.
Pip, go and get the pie.
If you're an old chap, you shall have some too.
That boy!
Ask him to do anything. He doesn't hear.
Joe, cold plates, please.
Precious goodness! Who's gone off with the pie?
Did you hear the blacksmith, Godry?
I'm afraid what might you want with him on Christmas?
A little job done.
Been out on a chase and an accident with these.
If they are wanted for immediate service, will you throw your eye over them?
I have to go to my forge to do that.
Convicts, Sergeant?
Don't fear. They'll soon find themselves trapped on those marshes.
Pick some proper now and bring them up to us there.
Murder! Murder!
Here they are! Tortures!
Come on, get them! Come on, move!
Don't fight.
Stand over. Come on, get over here.
Come on, get them up.
Don't move!
Get them up!
Come on, come on, come on.
Bring him over here.
Come on, come on.
He nearly killed me, he did.
Not if he had a dead man, if he hadn't come.
He lies.
I'll make you pay for this, Magwitch.
Handcuffs.
Right, Mark.
I want to say something respecting this escape.
I took a file and sent vettors in the village from the blacksmith.
He was a bottle of liquor and a poly.
You happened to miss such an article as a pie, blacksmith?
My wife did the very minute you came in.
Don't you remember, Ben?
Oh, you're the blacksmith?
I'm sorry, I ate your pie.
You're welcome to it as far as ever it was mine.
We don't know what you'd done, but...
we wouldn't want you to starve to death, right?
Willis, Ben?
No, Joe.
Right, move.
Come on.
Come along.
What do you love about Queensland?
What makes it the best Aussie state?
Could be the friends, could be the life.
Could be my forex, mate.
What do you love about Queensland?
What would you miss that's so great?
I'd miss the sea, I'd miss the sun.
I'd miss my forex, mate.
What do you love about Queensland?
What are the things that you raise?
I'd say the freedom, I'd say the bush.
I'd say the forex, mate.
But I don't have to leave my Queensland
On that there's no debate.
I'll keep my friends, I'll keep my life
So make it a forex, mate.
I'll keep my friends, I'll keep my life
So make it a forex, mate.
I'll keep my friends...
For Peter Squire, engines are his life.
Peter Squire knows engines backwards.
That's why he chooses mobile.
Like Peter, more people are moving to

Mobile. Good move.
I shall create for you an army of humanoids.
Indestructible human robots.
The humanoid.
Man faces his death in the hands of the human.
The humanoid. Man faces his greatest challenge from outer space.
See them duel with laser guns and lethal arrows of shimmering phlegathon.
Cheer Kip, the Robo-dog, as he blasts invaders from the blue planet Noxon.
This time they come too close.
The humanoid.
Now showing at Hoyt's Associated Drive-Ins,
Coopers Plains, Cannon Hill, Aspley, Redcliffe, Beanley and Toowoomba Garden City Drive-Ins.
I'm feeling trim, tart to rip in.
Let me be specific, I'm in red shape cause I'm into extra G.
If you're watching your weight, you need regular exercise and a sensible approach to your diet.
A small serve of high protein extra G is a great start to a Weight Watchers day.
I'm in red shape, I'm into extra G.
Come boy.
What name?
Pumple Duke.
Do you wish to see Miss Havisham?
Miss Havisham wishes to see me.
She most certainly does not.
But I brought the boy. Pipp.
Pipp, is it?
Come in, Pipp.
Boy, let your behaviour be a credit to those that brought you.
Pipp, you're pretty cute, aren't you?
Well, my true name is Philip Parrott.
But when I was small, all I could say was Pipp.
So I came to be called...
Oh come along boy, don't light up.
Hurry up, hurry up.
Quick, quick, quick, quick.
Pipp.
Come on.
Go on.
I'm off to Younes.
Don't be so ridiculous.
I'm not going.
Who is it?
Pipp, mum.
Pipp?
Mr. Pumble Duke's boy.
Come to play.
Come nearer.
Let me look at you. Come close.
Look at me.
Are you afraid to look at a woman who has never seen the sun since before you were born?
No.
Do you know what I touch here?
Your heart.
Broken.
Are you ill, mum?
Merely tired.
I need diversion.
I've done with men and women.
Play.
Play what, mum?
What does it matter?
Sometimes I have sick fancies.
I have a sick fancy now to see some play.
Play.
I can't play alone, mum.
Stella, you can do that. Call her Stella at the door.
Stella!
You mustn't shout, boy.
Let me see you play cards with this boy.
He's a common, labouring boy.
What of it?
You can break his heart.
May I, mum?
I said who should play a game of broken hearts?
Afraid I don't know that, mum.
Stella will teach you.
No.
He's a stupid village boy.
Anyway, he's much too little.
Nearly 15.
Huh!
And you're smaller than a weasel for your age.
I am older than you are.
If he's old enough for you to insult him,
he is old enough for you to teach him.
Teach him.
And I will give you a prize.
Your own one day.
And you will use them well.
Now teach him the rules.
Teach him.
The object of the game is for me to capture your neighbour hearts
and for you to try to capture my queen of hearts.
The winner is the one who ends up with both hearts.
And Miss Abisham sat in the middle of the room in a black velvet coach.
A black velvet coach?
And Stella handed her on cakes on golden plates.
Was anybody else there?
Four dogs.
Large or small?
Immense.
And they fought for veal cutlets out of a silver basket.
What did you play at?
We played with flags.
Stella waved a red one.
I waved a blue one.
And Miss Abisham waved one sprinkled all over with gold stars.
And then we waved swords.
Swords?
She keeps swords? Where?
Oh in the cupboard.
And there was no daylight in the room.
It was all lit with candles.
I knew he was lying.
No no. That much is true. That much I've seen for myself.
Goodness.
Well there'll be no waving of swords in this house.
We don't have no swords my dear.
We do have work to be done.
Come on Pippo Chappie.
Give us a hand in the forger.
You ought to go this way to table.
It's well.
Am I pretty?
Yes miss.
You're very pretty.
And am I insulting?
Not as much as last time miss.
Not so much so.
Not as much as last time miss.
Not so much so.
Well you call us little monster.
What do you think of me now?
I shan't tell you.
Ah.
Because you're going to tell her?
Is that it?
No that's not it.
Why don't you cry you little wretch?
Because I never cry for you.
Ah. Whom have we here?
Oh a common boy.
A crying boy.
Well you behave yourself.
You have a pretty wide experience of boys.
You're a bad set of fellows.
No need to cry.
Tears are no proof of innocence.
But he wasn't crying sir.
I never said you were.
Mrs. Dallow.
Who is he?
Mr. Jackers.
Our legal advisor.
Of course you wouldn't know what a legal advisor was.
What do you think that is?
Cougars mum.
A great cake.
A wedding cake.
Mine.
Come.
Wheel me.
This is my wedding anniversary Pep.
On this day many years ago that heap of decay was brought here.
It and I have worn away together.
The mice have gnawed at it.
And sharper teeth.
Teeth of mice have gnawed at me.
Ah!
The wedding guests have arrived.
On this day every year my cousins the pockets arrive to wish the bride well.
Look at them Pep.
They live on the hope that I shall never see another anniversary.
Tell me cousin Sarah.
How does the bride look today?
Beautiful.
Come along Pep.
You don't think this gown a little grand for a country wedding?
Oh no dear.
It's perfection.
Have you ever seen a lovelier bride?
Never.
Pep.
You will give the bride away.
She will?
Certainly not.
She sits there on every anniversary.
It's her waiting place.
What does she wait for?
Boy you have no right to pry into our family affairs.
Pep.
No no no.
You have no right to pry into our family affairs.
Pep.
No no no.
Pep.
No no no.
She will give the bride away.
She will.
Pep.
No no no.
Pep.
No no no.
Pep.
No no no.
Pep.
No no no.
Pep.
No no no.
Pep.
No no no.
Well since you're here come and fight.
I suppose I ought to give you a reason for fighting.
Well here it is.
Ow!
That means you've won.
Are you all right?
Yes thank you.
I'm fine.
Bye.
Come here.
You may kiss me if you like.
During the following year
my sister became gravely ill
and died.
But her passing did not concern me
for I thought only of my weekly
visits to Miss Havisham
and of Estella
who never again told me I might kiss her
although I lived with that help
until one day...
You are the boy's guardian
I understand.
Well mom
I helped him marry his late sister
when I was single
before I were married
I guess I'm your guardian
ain't I Pep?
You will save your scorn
for those who learned it Miss
your admirers.
Well you reared the boy
with the intention of taking him as your apprentice.
Is that so Mr. Gargery?
You know mom
I always look forward to having you
at the forge with me Pep.
I mean you being there a couple of ladies
to lead to the arks.
Good.
Pep has earned some reward
for serving us here.
Here are 25 guineas
give them to your new master
it will pay for your apprenticeship.
Pep I never meant to take no money to make you a blacksmith.
Oh do it Pep.
You'll make a perfect blacksmith.
Take it Jo. Please take it.
Goodbye Pip.
Let them out Estella.
Am I never to come here again Miss Havish?
No.
Gargery is your master now.
But who will Estella play with then?
Estella goes to France next week.
She is to be educated there.
We have done all that we can do for her here.
We have done with you as well.
Goodbye Pep.
Leave me.
There's so much to see little Aspley
that Strathpine it's impossible to show you everything.
But here's a small sample.
Talk to the Bowden boys next to the old Shire Hall, Gimpy Road, Strathpine every day till sundown including Saturday and Sunday.
So come on out and spend a few hours. You'll stay a lifetime. Bring your friends.
With the new Avis flexi rate this Ford Cortina will cost me less tomorrow because flexi rate actually reduces on the second day.
From $27 to just $24 including unlimited kilometers.
And every day after that the most I'll pay is $24 a day.
So you can see that Avis's new flexi rate really does make good business sense.
Will that be everything sir?
No not quite.
Gotcha.

It seemed to me that when I should at last roll up my shirt sleeves and go into the forge as Joe's apprentice I should be distinguished and happy.
Now the reality was here.
Life at last all interest and romance.
What stretched out before me was nothing save darling Joe.
Dinner time.
Better wash up and finish work tomorrow.
You go ahead Joe.
I promised Uncle Pummelchuk I'd fix the wheel of his cart for tomorrow morning.
I'll eat later.
As you wish Peppo chap.
Oh and Joe if you don't mind would you shut the door.
What I feared was that on some unlucky night I should look my eyes and see Estella looking in at me from one of the forge doors.
I was haunted by the fear that she would sooner or later find me at my coarse work.
I would fancy she had come at last to surprise me and despise me once again.
You won't take your hot meal properly in the kitchen. You'll just have to eat it in the forge.
Thanks Liddy.
You're not happy are you Peppo?
I must be happy.
Everything a man could want. Food, shelter, work and when you married Joe a proper family.
Sometimes that's not enough.
Even when you were a boy I knew you wanted more.
Spending all your pocket money on books about faraway places.
How I feared you'd go off to be a soldier or a sailor.
But you stayed faithful to Joe and your work.
I'm sorry Liddy. It hasn't been one day I haven't hated this forge.
Then you must tell Joe.
How could he understand? He loves his work.
If I work hard it's not because I think there's any virtue in hard work but because Joe works even harder.
All I am is restless and discontented.
You're not ashamed of what you do are you Pepp?
Yes and I'm ashamed of the very shame I feel.
Oh Pepp. That's been years.
You should have forgotten her long ago.
She's surely forgotten you.
Now why are you here Peppo? I hope you want nothing.
No I want nothing. Good.
For you'll get nothing.
I never give to those who seek.
Though I might be generous to one who has abandoned all hope that I have.
You're well I trust.
I still cling to my bad habit of living.
I just wanted you to know that I'm almost done with my apprenticeship.
I'm much obliged to you.
How is Estella?
Still abroad out of reach.
Prettier than ever. Admired by all who see her.
Quite well indeed.
I'm glad.
No you're not. For it means you've lost her. Lost her.
Oh Pepp don't go. Until you have taken this.
Oh no.
But Pepp I'm grateful to you for amusing me.
You know you were always rewarded when you amused me.
I want nothing of yours.
Oh you liar. You want my most precious possession.
Estella. Imagine.
They call me mad.
Yet he thinks she should be squandered on a blacksmith. A common blacksmith.
Common blacksmith.
Estella was trained for gentlemen only.
Now return to your forge.
And if you are fortunate one day she might ride in a carriage whose wheels you have mended.
Pepp we have a visitor.
He just knocked. Asked if you were here and waited.
Joseph Gardery. My name is Jaggers.
I'm a lawyer in London. I'm pretty well known.
I wish to have a private conference with you two.
No secrets from my wife sir.
Very foolhardy principal Joseph Gardery.
But I'm not here to teach you a sense.
I'm the bearer of an offer to relieve you of this young fellow. Your apprentice.
You would not object to cancel his indentures for his good. You would want nothing for so doing.
Nor forbid that I should want anything for not standing in Pepp's way.
The communication I've got to make is that this young fellow has great expectations.
I'm instructed to communicate to him that he will come into a handsome property.
Further that it is the desire of his benefactor that he be immediately removed from this place and be brought up as a gentleman.
Now Mr. Pepp you have to understand first that it is the quest of the person from whom I take my instructions that you always bear the name of Pepp.
Now if you have any objections to that this is the time to mention it.
No.
I should think not.
Now understand secondly that the name of the person who is your benefactor remains a profound secret until that person chooses to reveal it.
If you have any suspicion in your own breast keep that suspicion in your own breast.
If you have any objection to that this is the time to mention it.
I have no...
I should think not.
Now Mr. Pepp it is considered that you must be better educated in accordance with your altered position and that may best be done by removing you to London.
You will want some new clothes to come in and they should not be working clothes.
You'll need some money. Shall I leave you 20 guineas?
20 guineas?
As for you Joseph Gargery I have it in my charge to make you a handsome present in exchange for your services.
What do you demand? Speak up.
You think I would profit from Pepp's expectations? I mean to say no give you leave to come here and play in bad Jimmy.
Oh Joe please. Mr. Jaggers means no harm.
It's just that he's never had the good fortune to meet an honest man before.
Well Mr. Pepp I think that the sooner you leave here the better.
Someone will meet your coach in London next Tuesday afternoon and now prepare yourself for the strenuous business of becoming a gentleman.
Don't think the crown is too high.
Well Mr. Pepp in London they're all wearing them high.
A tilted front of course.
Very rakish sir.
My dear young friend I give you joy of your good fortune.
Well deserved well deserved to think that I should have been the humble instrument leading up to this proud war.
Yes I suppose this one will do.
My dear young friend if you'll allow me to say.
How dare you take up the time of this gentleman a child I sported with in happy infancy.
But you never had a kind word for him sir. It was I who sang his praises.
A kind word? What doesn't flatter a person of quality? I always treated him as an equal. I couldn't have paid him a higher compliment.
Oh dear Biddy think what I can do for Joe now.
What is Joe to do with this?
Why when I come into my fortune he may never work in that forge again.
But he may not want to be taken out of a place that he likes and fills with respect.
How do you know?
I know my Joe. He's too proud to live on your fortune.
It's not Joe's too proud Biddy it's you.
Your embers of my rising fortune can't help showing it.
It's only in human nature.
Whether you scold me or approve of me Mr. Pebb will make no difference in my remembrance of you.
Biddy I'm home.
Well Pip?
I've come into such good fortune since I saw you last Miss Havisham.
I'm so grateful for it.
Yes I saw Mr. Jaggers. I have heard about it. So you go tomorrow Pip.
Yes Miss Havisham.
Be good. Deserve it.
And abide by Mr. Jaggers instructions.
You will always keep the name of Pip you know.
Oh yes Miss Havisham.
You let Estella know of my good fortune?
I have already written telling her about it.
Goodbye.
Goodbye Pip. Take care.
Pebble chow.
Perhaps I could stay here another night with you.
Yes I'll ride to London and tell them that...
you're going today.
Goodbye Biddy.
Look I didn't mean what I said about it.
Of course you didn't. Just remember hold on to your crown in London town.
Goodbye lad.
Goodbye.

Well if it's not Mrs. K. Just coming out of the rain love. What a see me.
Think I fancy a pot roast tonight Sam. What do you think?
Got a lovely piece of boulder blade love. Haven't I Rafe?
In fact I've been saving it for someone extra special.
Boulder blade but I thought that... A lot of people make that mistake love.
But the cheaper cuts like boulder blade, roll chuck. You can't beat them for a pot roast.
You just brown your meat. Throw in some veggies. Some herbs if you like.
Pour in some wine and cook over a low heat for two or three hours.
That all I have to do Sam. Well you could invite me over for dinner.
Oh Brian. Now what was it? A boulder blade. That or a roll chuck.
What's for dinner mom?
Be the man me.
You probably thought that to get an attractive interest rate plus the absolute security that commonwealth government bonds offer meant tying your money up for years.
Not so. There is a savings plan that pays up to 9.25% interest per annum, is commonwealth government guaranteed and lets you get at your money should an emergency arise.

Mr. Pip. Herbert Pocket.
What do you do? Mr. Jack has arranged for me to meet you. I've just bought some fruit for after dinner.
Well the fact is I'm half starved now. Oh here you are.
Thank you. Well come along. I'm to take you to Mr. Jackers. Then you'll go to your rooms. You'll be lodging with me. Mr. Jackers has arranged it.
Thank you.
Margeyman.
Ah Mr. Pip. Pocket. Mr. Jackers hasn't returned from court yet. You ought to wait for him inside.
Aren't you coming in too? No if you don't mind I'll stay out here and mind the trunk.
The fact is you're Mr. Jackers always makes me feel guilty and I never know what for.
Never been in London before? No. I was new here once and I know me way about. Is it a very wicked place?
Some will cheat you some will rob you some will murder you in London but some will do that for you anywhere.
Sit down.
No time now. I want to know no more than I know. Have you played Wemmick? Yes sir.
You thought that's what I told you not to do. I think for you that's enough for you. I don't want you to think. I won't have it.
I've got a witness for swear to my innocence. In court. Oh he will will he. And what will he swear to in court?
Whatever you tell him to say. Get out and take your witness with you.
Another word and Wemmick will give you back your money.
Yes who are you what do you want? Have you paid Wemmick? Yes Mr. Pip sir. Just come up to London.
Well come inside my office Mr. Pip.
You want those?
The cards of honest tradesman with whom I wish you to be on. You'll find your credit good Mr. Pip. Don't abuse it.
Oh and who want that too? Your first month allowance.
But but he's such a lot. I'll never be able to spend that much.
Believe me Mr. Pip. You will find a way.
Of course you'll go wrong somehow. No fault of mine. Good day to you sir.
Get out get out.
Get out.
Yes sir.
Oh dammit this door does stick sir. Let me hold your bag.
Oh.
I thought I recognized you. You're the fighting boy from his havershons.
And you're the prouding boy.
The thought of it being you. Amazing.
Come along your room's this way. I do apologize for having knocked you about so badly.
Oh I'd quite forgotten that. I suppose you thought I was an intruder.
You hadn't come into your good fortune at that time. Oh no.
But what were you doing there? Miss Havisham sent for me that day.
I'm one of her poor relations but she couldn't take a fancy to me.
Bad taste but true. Then you must be one of Estella's cousins.
No. Estella's no relative of ours.
Then why was she living there? It's quite a story.
But you'll have it with your dinner. I'll make some tea.
She lavished gifts on him. Carriages, horses, a small estate in Surrey.
Well the marriage day was fixed. The wedding dress bought. The cake baked. The guests invited.
The day arrived. But not the bridegroom. No. Only a cruel letter.
Which arrived at 20 minutes of nine when she was dressing for her wedding.
The very moment when she stopped all the clocks and retired from the world.
I say Cripp you are quick. But I can't guess anything about Estella.
Who is she? Where does she come from? Nobody knows.
Well I only know that Miss Havisham adopted her to wreak vengeance on the whole male sex.
She's a demon. Here you be careful how you talk about her.
Oh it's that way with you is it? Yes.
I know she won't even look at me till I become a gentleman.
Pocket. Would you help me? Would you teach me how to become a gentleman?
I could try. We'll start with dining. In London it's not the custom to put the knife in the mouth.
Also the spoon is not generally held over hand but under.
Now this has several advantages. You get closer to the mouth.
And you save a good deal of effort for the elbow. You'll need your elbows for dancing.
One two three. One two three. One two three. One two three. One two three. One two three. One two three.
Very good Pip. You are quick. One two three. One two three. One two three. One two three.
Damn you Pocket but you'll wake the dead with this racket.
Sorry Drummle old chap. Just giving my new friend Pip here a few points on the dance.
Oh you two haven't met have you? Drummle lodges below us.
Pip's just come to London to...
Pocket I need quiet not friends. Got to rest now.
I have an appointment in Hyde Park at five in the morning.
Do gentlemen really go to Hyde Park that early in the morning?
When they're going to fight a duel they do.
Drummle is the best shot in London. Dangerous chap.
Those who know call him the spider.
Do you think he'd teach me the finer points of dueling?
If you call him spider to his face he will.
Any friend of Mr. Pip is welcome here.
Besides I like the look of your face.
It is a rather distinguished face I would say.
I haven't seen so fine a specimen of the criminal type since they hanged Ben Bailey the Bow Street Ripper.
That's his death mask. I defended him beautifully I'm obliged to say.
But wasn't he hanged?
My defense was beautiful. Unfortunately his crimes were ugly.
Mr. Javits I'd like to ask you a favor.
What do you want?
It's not for me it's for Pocket.
What's he been doing wrong?
Nothing sir. He's been a splendid friend to me and I'd like to do something for him.
You have money enough to do as you choose.
Oh but he wouldn't take money from me.
What he needs most is employment.
I was thinking perhaps you could find him something in the city.
Could be arranged.
But I wouldn't want him to know that I'd done it.
So perhaps you could make it appear that someone was in need of his skills.
Certainly.
There is nothing our financial world needs so much as a young fellow who can neither add, subtract or multiply.
Say no more. He's a clerk in the Bank of England tomorrow.
Thank you sir.
Now toast to the health of our young friend Pip.
May he find London all that he hoped it would be.
Pip.
Yes Pocket?
I'll do very nicely.
Oh uh...
I've forgotten to pay you.
I'll be looking for Mr Pep.
Joe!
Oh Joe.
How are you?
My but you've grown and swelled and general folk.
It's to be an honor to your King and country.
And you Joe. You look wonderfully well.
How's Biddy?
Oh she's well.
I'm sorry I haven't been down to see you.
But as soon as I have time I will.
Oh this is my good friend.
Herbert Pocket.
Mr Joseph Gargery.
Oh well happy to meet you sir.
My pleasure Mr Gargery.
Take uh...
Your coffee Mr Gargery.
Thank you sir. I'll take whichever is most agreeable to yourself.
What do you say to coffee?
Well since you're kind enough to make the choice of coffee...
I won't run contrary to your own opinions.
Don't you never find it a little heating?
I'll uh... say tea then.
Oh no!
Well I must be off for my job in the city.
It's been a pleasure meeting you Mr Gargery.
Oh well. Any friend of Pep's is a friend...
A friend of Pep's.
Now sir...
Joe.
How can you call me sir?
Oh Pep.
You know Miss Aberson...
Has sent word to me to bring you a message.
I'm to let you know that...
Mrs Stella has come home and would be glad to see you.
She's home?
Why didn't you tell me before?
Well I must get down to see her.
I must get dressed.
Joe?
You're not going Joe.
Yes I am.
You'll be back for dinner.
You and these not-too-figures should be seen together in London.
Joe!
You think that I'm proud?
But you shall never see me no more in these clothes.
I'm wrong out of the forge, out of the kitchen...
Or off the marshes.
You won't find half so much fault in me if you come to the forge window...
And see Joe the blacksmith and his old burnt apron...
Sticking down to the old work.
So Pep dear old chap...
God bless you.
May you keep ever well and ever prospering.
Who's your curious visitor?
He's a...
He's my blacksmith.
Take my advice old chap.
Never let him know where you live.
But once you do, never stop trying to collect your debts.
I'm afraid I owe him far more than I can ever repay.
Do you find her much changed, Pip?
She used to be proud and insulting.
You wanted to go away from her.
Don't you remember?
I have forgotten nothing.
Is she beautiful, graceful, well grown?
Do you admire her?
Everyone must who sees her, Miss Hedges.
Help me, Pip.
I adopted her to be loved.
I bred and educated her to be loved.
I developed her into what she is that she might be loved.
Love her. Love her.
And has he changed, Estella?
Less coarse and common?
Plus ça change.
Plus ça la même chose.
She's going to London.
I wish her to go out in society.
I trust you will be good enough to look after her there.
It will be my pleasure.
Oh, do you remember the fighting boy?
The one I boxed with here?
Oh, yeah?
We're very good friends now.
In fact, we share rooms in London.
Yeah. I remember I enjoyed that fight very much.
You rewarded me very much.
Did I?
Indeed. You let me kiss you.
Oh. I don't remember that.
You see, I only seem to recollect what pleases me.
And you must remember, Pip, I have no heart.
Oh, I have a heart to be shot at, to be stabbed at.
But there is no softness there.
No sympathy, no sentiment and no nonsense.
You're jesting.
No, Pip, I'm being serious.
If we are to be thrown much together, you must believe me at once.
Believe me, Pip. Just believe me.
What's the matter? Are you frightened?
I should be if I believe what you said just now.
Then you don't?
No.
Very well.
It has been said.
You shall shed no tears of cruelty for me today.
You shall be my page and escort me to London.
We are to meet tomorrow at midday at the Blue Boy Inn
and we shall take the London coach together.
Holden Commodore sweeps the Repco Rally.
One, two and three.
The driver has complete control over the motor car at all times.
We didn't expect that any car in the world could make in this difficult event.
One, two, three.
And while everybody else was stopping for repairs, we were able to drive on.
The durability of Holden Commodore was sort of beyond our wildest expectation.
Drive a winner.
Drive your Commodore, sedan or wagon at your Holden dealer now.
You probably thought that to get an attractive interest rate
plus the absolute security that Commonwealth Government bonds offer

Saturday, a special Australian adventure on the world around us.
Explore the wrecks of ancient ships and hear the terrifying tales
of those who sailed in them on Ben Croft's castaway coast.
Survivors of these wrecks staggered ashore only to face the hardships
of thirst, starvation or marauding head hunters.
Only a few survived to tell of their hardships.
See the actual discovery of one of the very ships that was part of a legendary mutiny on the bounty
in a special Australian edition of The World Around Us.
Right Before Eight is enough now on Saturday nights here on Channel 7.
Oh, I thought I'd never get away.
Miss Havisham and her endless instructions.
I wonder if she can bear to part with you again so soon.
Oh, but that is part of her plans.
Estella is to write to her constantly regarding her progress.
Estella and her jewels.
They are almost all Estella's now.
Why do you speak of yourself as if you were someone else?
Does it displease you?
No, but it confuses me.
You must not expect me to change for you people.
I shall talk and live in my own fashion.
This is my purse. You are to pay the coachman with it.
Oh, no, I have more than enough.
Please, please.
We have no choice, you and I, but to follow our instructions.
We are not free to follow our own impulses.
Oh, but I'm... I'm very free to follow mine.
Will you never take warning?
Never.
As far as you are concerned, I'm quite fearless.
Then after we take the London coach...
You may watch me take London.
Miss Estella, remember you promised me the next dance.
Nonsense. I have your solemn promise you'd save the next dance for me.
Oh, I have a most appalling memory.
I have promised the next dance to my dear friend.
Shall we dance?
Estella, I must speak with you.
Then speak, my dear Pip, as we dance.
You've scarcely noticed my existence tonight.
You've been so occupied in dazzling your dance.
That is more your fault than mine.
Indeed?
Your jealousy has made an mar of every man who approaches me.
Nonsense. You leave them on.
But you are my old friend.
Oh, yes, I am.
I'm sorry.
But you are my old friend.
Oh, yes, you allow me certain privileges so you deny the others.
Only because you've dismissed my love as meaningless.
Is it your wish to torment me?
What other choice do I have?
My other admirers are even more tired than the newer.
You're tired, aren't you?
Rather, Pip.
You should be.
Rather, I should not be.
I have given my word to a dozen more dancers.
Six of them to Bentley Drumm.
Look at him staring at you.
Hardly a pretty sight, I must confess.
He's been hovering about you all evening.
Moths and all sorts of ugly creatures hover around a lighted candle.
Can a candle help it?
I can't bear that people should think you'd throw yourself away on such a bore.
Why, I've seen you give him looks and smiles and such as you never give to me.
Do you want me to deceive and entrap you?
Do you deceive and entrap him?
Yes.
And others.
All of them.
Yes, Mr. Drummond.
Not another word.
Excuse me.
I was determined that Estella should know of my love for her,
and that she should not be allowed to throw her life away.
I set about writing, asking her to become my wife.
Mr. Pip?
That's my name.
What's your business?
My business?
I'll explain within by your leave.
I've never seen you, Richard.
Why do you ask?
You're a game-winner.
Glad you growed up a game-winner.
I could tell that when you were a boy on them marshes.
Even then you was a game-winner.
Wasn't every lad what would comfort a poor convict with fiddles and...
Don't be afraid, there's no iron on my feet now.
You acted now, believe me, boy.
Able-mak witches never forget you.
I'm not going.
If you're grateful to me for what I did as a child, it's not necessary.
Surely you must understand.
Surely I must understand what?
That I cannot now wish to renew our acquaintance.
You're wet and you look weary.
Will you have a drink before you leave?
For good health.
How have you been living?
I've done wonderful well. I'm famous for it.
I'm glad to hear it.
A sheep farmer, stock breeder, in the New World.
You were deported to Australia?
Bloody likely.
Now, they was taking me to be hanged.
But I escaped.
Ain't no present ship could hold able magwitch.
May I make so bold as to inquire how you have done so well since you and me
was out on them shivering marshes?
I... I was chosen to succeed to some property.
Oh. Now, might a mere varmint inquire what property?
I don't know.
Could I make a guess, I wonder, at your income since you've come of age?
As to the first figure now, five?
Concerning a guardian, some lawyer, maybe.
As to the first letter of that lawyer's name, would it be a J?
And would he tell you you was always to go by the name of Pip
and you was never to ask who he was, what made a gentleman of you?
Yes, Pip, my dear boy, it's me. What a study.
I swore that time, soon as ever I got a guinea, that guinea would go to you.
I lived rough so that you could live smooth.
I worked hard so that you could be above work.
Do I tell it for you to feel an obligation? Not a bit.
I tell it for you to know that this hunted Daniel Dog, what you kept life in,
got so high he could make a gentleman.
And you're it, Pip. I'm your second father.
Now, don't mind me talking, Pip.
You ain't looked forward to it as much as I have these many years.
Did you never think it might be me?
Never. Never.
Was there no one else?
No one. Who else would there be?
Eh?
It wasn't easy for me to come back here, wasn't safe neither.
But at last I'd done it. Dear boy, I'd done it.
Now then, where are you going to put me?
Eh?
My friend Pocket was away on business. You can have his room until he returns.
Look at these lodgings of yours.
Fit for a lord.
Why'd you do that?
Ocean. It's death for me to be found here in England.
Surely, after all these years, there's no one looking for you.
Somebody is. He'd stop at nothing to find me.
You remember that young man with the ugly mug, what was it with me in the graveyard? My enemy.
He'd seek me out for the reward, not to mention the joy of seeing me hanged.
Well, don't fear. You're quite safe here because I owe you safety and I repay my debts.
Spoken like a real gentleman.
Ah, me boy.
I have great plans for you and me. I have scarcely scratched the top of me fortune.
You'll live like a bloody prince.
And I'll have the joy of seeing it with me on ice.
But why me? Surely you must have some relation.
Now. Now there's no one.
Had a daughter once. What a loss.
Now I have a son.
What a found.
He must be got out of England safely.
Indeed, but he'll never go unless I agree to go with him.
You'd leave Estella?
Oh, but he's risked his very life to join me here.
After all he's done for me is the least I can do for him.
Now once he's safely settled abroad, then I'll return and ask Estella to marry me.
Who is it?
Rommel.
Piff, old chap. I have a favour to ask.
I'll take a journey to your part of the country.
Loathe, marshlands. Still I've no choice.
You know a decent inn where I might stay the night?
Yes, the Blue Ball.
Well, I don't plan to stay long, but Estella insists upon speaking with our old guardian before we go off.
What have you to do with Estella?
I've just heard. Estella has agreed to marry me.
You're lying.
I did, hello. I never lie to my inferiority.
Tell me I'm lying!
Help! Let go!
Don't worry, Pockett. I'll take offense at that.
Blacksmith's boy is never too far from his foe, is he?
Piff, what happened?
Piff, you can't leave now.
Try to arrange a boat passage for Maggiewicz and me while I'm gone.
I'll be back in London tomorrow.
Piff, where are you going?
It's been a hard day.
So relax with this new Hanes Hunter 146F.

Eight is enough.
That special family we all love now moves to a new night, Saturday night.
Well, they've accepted your nomination for their Father of the Year award.
But why me?
The winner gets a free trip for himself and his whole family to Hawaii.
It's our moral duty to make sure Dad wins that award.
Am I intruding or something?
I just wish I'd had a better chance to prepare you.
Good morning, Mr. Bradford.
Have you heard? David and Janet are living together.
David down for the count.
David and Janet?
You mean there's not going to be a wedding?
That devil.
What's going on with David and Janet that I'm not supposed to know about?
Tom's Father of the Year award is in peril on Eight is Enough, now on Saturday nights,
with brand new adventures at 7.30, right before Centennial on Channel 7.
I swear, I will never trouble you with my love again if you refuse him now.
Oh, if I am a most imperfect woman.
I possess every fault, save one, I do not delude myself.
I will marry Mr. Drummle because I am weary of my life.
And I am willing enough to change it.
With his wealth and position, he can afford to keep so precious an object as myself.
Cold heart.
You would go now and never see us again.
And take these two.
I do not want them.
Look at her.
So hard, so thankless.
In the house where she was reared.
Who taught me to be hard?
Who praised me when I learnt my first lesson in pride?
When I was a child.
Who sat before me with a face so strange and frightening, teaching me her lessons.
Well, now you no longer frighten me.
Pity.
The only way you could stop the time was by breaking all the clocks.
I will marry Drummle tomorrow at his estate.
You may come if you know I cannot leave this house.
As you will.
But I must leave now.
I cannot bear this place a moment longer.
Estella!
No more!
You will find someone better suited to your love.
All this will pass in time.
Never!
Indeed?
Oh, Pip, you will have forgotten me within the week.
Forget you?
Oh, God, what I could.
You have lived in every thought I've ever had since I first came here.
A rough, laboring boy.
You will remain part of the little good left in me.
Part of the evil as well.
Take them.
Come back.
Estella, come back.
Come back.
Oh.
What have I done?
I meant... I meant no harm.
Who were her parents?
I wanted a little girl to rear and to love.
To save from my fate.
Jaggers.
Jaggers found me an orphan.
So beautiful.
But my jewels, my lessons...
I stole her heart.
I put pride in its place.
Who were her parents?
I don't know.
He wouldn't tell me.
Does Estella know?
No.
She was scarcely two years old when she arrived here.
Is there no clue anything?
Wearing a little torn gown and a...
tin locket.
There's an inscription on it.
Molly Mag...
Magwitch.
Does that name mean anything to you?
Don't go, Pip.
I'm afraid to be alone.
Why not ask in the village for another child to come here to play?
Pip!
Ahhhhhhh!
Pip!
Oh, Pip!
No!
Ah!
Oh!
Pip.
Dear Pip.
I never meant you to suffer as I did.
Don't kill me.
Of course I do.
I would have loved her in any event.
I'll put a case to your mind.
I admit nothing.
But you must tell me.
Put the case of a lawyer
who lived in an atmosphere of evil and suffering.
Put the case that he saw the children of convicts
whipped, neglected, cast out,
growing up only to be hanged themselves.
Put the case that one pretty child out of this dung heap could be saved.
A father a convict, a mother a murderess.
Both parents living under this lawyer's power.
Molly, take this away.
Put the case that the lawyer saw the chance for this child to be raised in comfort and security.
Put the case that this secret remains a secret except that you have stumbled on it.
Then Molly is Estella's mother and Magwitch her father.
This must be made known.
For whose sake would you reveal this? For the father's? For the mother's?
For Estella's sake!
If Trummel knew, he'd never marry her.
Ah, you'd save her, is that it?
You'd drag her into disgrace after 20 years.
She's chosen her own fate and Trummel, remember that.
What right have you to choose another for her?
If you must save someone, I think you might look a little closer to home.
Hello. The literal translation of Cordon Bleu, of course, is blue ribbon.
In the restaurant business, it means first class chef and first class food.
At Arthur Prince's Cordon Bleu restaurant, where I prefer to dine, the two go hand in hand.
Together with fine entertainment, a superb wine list and personalized attention in such pleasant surroundings.
What more could I ask for? For a complete night out, give yourself a treat and dine at the Cordon Bleu.
I'm sure you'll agree with me. It's one of Brisbane's finest restaurants.
This is how television looked in 1939.

Um, wild blossoms? Oh, perfume.

What are you doing? Mmm, feels nice. Now I can really smell the wild blossom.
To me, it just smells wild.

It's Chandler's Clean Sweep Sellout. And you know what I've got here?
This little beauty from Bissell. They call it the Sweep Easy. I call it magic.
And just like its big sister, it's got Bissell's unique cassette lift-out dustpan.
And it's so light and compact, with a setting for anything from bare floor to thick carpet.
Even a wraparound rubber bumper. And does it work? You bet.
It's a Bissell, isn't it? And right now, the Sweep Easy is a red-hot Bissell special for only $10.95 at all Chandler stores.
Pocket! I'm in here.
Good morning. Look what I have here. Have you had an accident?
Oh, we have. It's nothing, nothing. Where's Pocket?
Your mate's gone to buy the steamship tickets. But we'll have a good time in Holland, won't we?
Well, we'll certainly try. Now, we must make certain that you run no risk of being recognized at the pier.
So, we'll dress ourselves as seamen.
Then, we'll row out to the boat and hail it as late arriving passengers.
Thus, we'll board the boat from the security of the river.
That's all right. There. Fine.
Well, if all goes well, you'll be perfectly free and safe again within a few hours.
What's that noise?
Where?
Like there.
I can't see anything.
Well, let's go.
There's the steamer!
There's a galley behind us!
Ahoy there! Passengers for boarding!
Ahoy there! Passengers for boarding! You have an escaped convict now!
At the man! He will language!
I apprehend that man! I call on him to surrender and you to assist!
I call on him to surrender and you to assist!
Pirate! Pirate!
Marguerite!
Marguerite! Marguerite!
Marguerite, we're here!
Come now. Pull him in.
Table Magnus, you are hereby sentenced to die for your crimes and all your possessions to be forfeit to the Crown.
Don't look so sad, dear boy. This way I'd cheat the hangman.
If I'm sad, it's to think that you came home for my sake.
I was content to take me chance. I've seen me boy. He can be a gentleman without me.
I'm no gentleman.
I'm not fit to judge them, but you are a very German. You ain't missed a day these two weeks.
Marguerite, can you hear me? You had a daughter who you thought was dead. She's living still. She's a great lady.
And I love her. Marguerite.
I'm not fit to judge them.
I say you seem fit today. Doesn't he, Joe?
I think he does. I'll go put up some tea.
Don't let him go over doing the talking.
How are you, pocket?
Splendid, Pip. As fit as ever.
You must have had a lot of exercise keeping the bailiffs from the door.
As a matter of fact, Joe paid some of your debts himself.
You know I won't allow that. Joe!
Please, Pip. Don't call. He won't come. He left you this note.
Try to understand. As soon as the word was out that you'd lost your good fortune, they came for the furnishings.
Joe didn't want you to recover in a bare bedroom without any comforts.
Not wishful to intrude, I have departed.
For you are well again, dear Pip. And it's time I returned home to Biddy.
Ever the best friend, Joe. Amazing. She's taught him to write.
There's nothing for it, pocket, but to repay him.
Perhaps I should go back to the forge. If Joe will have me.
Pip, there's no turning back. Like it or not, you're a gentleman now.
Oh, rubbish. I was merely a snob, an ingrate.
If that's being a gentleman, I have no more of it.
Then you'll just have to go to work with me.
No, pocket, I must leave London.
Yes, I hear there's a place for any young man who's not afraid of a lot of heat and little work.
Well, you've been in a forge so you can bear the heat, and I've been in a bank so I can bear the work.
So together we should go to India.
Why not?
If you want a great deal that's hard to beat on both sides of the river,
that you can say yes, yes, yes to, and you haven't signed anything,
come to Den Mac Ford and to prove it, we'll do deals on Cortinas, the car with economy, size and power.
Den Mac Ford, Indra Pilley and Dara.
Do you want a scotch and soda or a brandy and dry?
Oh no, mix up and change.
Well, how about a gin and tonic or a vodka and lime?
Oh no, mix up and change.
Well, tell me what you want, cause I've been through the range.
We want Brandofino to mix up and change.
Brandofino, no other drink's quite the same.
Mix with Brandofino and you'll mix up and change.

You know, one of the things we like about Goodyear tyre service is the annual holidays.
This year we holidayed at the Goodyear factory, that was fun.
We took lots of snapshots to remember a great time.
But it's better being back so we can offer you up to $41 savings on any set of four Goodyear Supersteels.
Have a look at this.
You get fitting by the radial experts, electronic balance on top equipment by the radial experts
and wheel alignment by the radial experts.
A must for maximum safety, mileage and performance worth up to $41.
We'll also give you a trade-in bonus on the unused mileage of your present tyres, so the savings could be even greater.
The offers for a limited period, so buy four Supersteels now.
Save up to $41.
Why pay more elsewhere or take chances with inferior brands?
Look for Goodyear in the phone book.
Drive in and get genuine Supersteel savings.
Next year I think we might holiday at head office.
I believe they have a very nice time there.
...
For 11 years I had not seen Joe nor Biddy, though they had both been often in my thoughts.
When on one Christmas Eve, an hour or two before dark, I knocked softly at the cottage door.
...
Happy Christmas!
Cheers, Pip.
Will we give him the name of Pip, dear old chap? We thought he might grow a little bit like you.
Oh, no.
We think he do.
No, he's a much better looking lad than I ever was.
I think he favors his mother.
Now look, you will send my godson to me on holiday visits. Now I'm to settle in London again.
Better you married and had a son of your own.
Yes, that's what Pocket and his wife are always saying, but I don't know. I don't think I ever will.
I'm worried about quite an old bachelor.
Uncle Pip, did they really wear rubies in their noses?
Did you really ride elephants and charm snakes?
It's Uncle Pumperchook.
For Gauntlet? Let him in.
You don't mean you invited him here to spoil a boy's Christmas?
Oh, he's all alone in the world and it is Christmas.
Truth is, I don't invite him. He appears.
Merry Christmas, Uncle Pumperchook.
Compliments of the season, Mum. I brought you a bottle of port wine.
Thank you, Uncle Pumperchook.
Pip, pass the bowl to Uncle Pumperchook and be certain to save something for yourself.
You'll spoil that boy by pampering him.
How else will he grow up to be a fine gentleman like his Uncle Pip?
Why, if Mr. Pip made his fortune in India with tea and spice. I'd very much like to hear about that trade.
Merry Christmas, Uncle Pumperchook.
Merry Christmas, I know.
What I always say is one's never too old to learn from a young one.
Get out of tea as soon as you can. Get into railroads.
If I was a young man, I'd risk my future in steam.
Do you know they're building a railway station right here in the village?
Indeed?
Yes. Miss Havisham's old place.
Didn't I take you there once to play? No matter, it's all coming down now.
Making way for progress.
Excuse me.
What's wrong, Pip?
Forgive me, Biddy. I'll return shortly.
I must see that house again.
Dear Pip, after 11 years, have you not forgotten her?
Biddy, I've forgotten nothing in my life that ever was important to me.
Why else would I return from India to be with you and Jo?
I'll just slip out through the forge.
Oh, come along, boy.
Don't light up.
Pip.
I'm sorry.
Pip.
Forgive me.
I never meant you to suffer as I did.
Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick.
I said to you that you should play a game of proper class.
God help 70, please.
I'm sorry.
God help 70, please.
I'm not going in.
Pip?
Yes?
Well, are you afraid to look at me?
I am greatly changed.
Stella?
I wonder you still know me.
Do you often return here?
No.
No, I have not been here since the night I left to marry.
I wanted to see the old house once before it was torn down.
Are you still living abroad?
Oh, no, no.
I returned yesterday.
You do well, I'm sure.
I work fairly hard for my living.
Yes, I suppose you could say I've done well.
I have often thought of you, of late.
You have?
What ridiculous children we were.
Both trying to master our own lives.
Yes.
You have forgotten.
No.
I've never forgotten you.
After Drummle was killed in Paris, I went to Germany for a while.
He was just as you said he was, Pip.
He made my life an agony once he learned my secret.
Jaggers told him?
Jaggers?
How should Jaggers know?
I told Drummle myself shortly after we were married.
But I had married him to escape from loving you.
You... you loved me?
In the first moment I saw you at the gate.
A boy that was sent here to play.
Till the last time we parted.
Oh, how frightened I was that you would discover my secret.
That I would suffer the same weakness as she had.
Thank heaven we outlive our fears.
Stella, you are lovelier today.
Pip, please don't. I know what I am.
I'm like this place. Wasted and broken.
Nonsense. You are softened by time.
Pip, I have not lost my pride.
I will not be pitied.
Why should I? Why should anyone pity a woman who is so greatly loved?
It is too late for us now. Let us part friends.
No, Stella. Friends will quarrel.
Friends will part.
We are long past friendship.
Come here, boy.
You may kiss me if you like.
Well, it was a great story, wasn't it?
And some lovely performances from the actors and actresses in the show.
Okay, that's it for this evening. Thank you very much for your company.
The weekend is coming up, of course, so we'd like you to take care.
We'll be back here next week because next week on our afternoon movies
we have a wonderful person for you to meet, Clark Gable.
And he has a very interesting life story.
So, as I said, enjoy the weekend.
Join us next week if you can until we meet at the same time.
Next week, may I say good night and God bless.
Saturday at 8.30, part two of the biggest motion feature ever made.
James A. Mitchener's Centennial.
Hey, small man.
The only reasonable way to handle an Indian?
The wisest of all animals on earth is to kill him.
There must be something terribly wrong with me.
They would drive you onto the plains.
They would make you prefer sharing a buffalo robbers or savage to my bed.
I never told you I could be anything else.
You would both love the same woman all these years.
Oh, God.
A great adventure of Centennial this Saturday following 8 Is Enough
on Channel 7.
Centennial is presented by Clear All, makers of hair care products.
