Jesus, I was a good bit of brocas hosting wasn't IT man, those doors aren't you? Anyway, you can see this, but I am decked out in the red of the mighty swindon town. I'm off to london muston and a train station to get the train to mansfield.

It's not feel full of men, but a town in the north of england where woman's feel, he, you asked, well, there is a one, 嗯, to my knowledge, you know, take three archy wends again. Anyway, I am off to watch my beloved, oh, sorry, escalated politics. Excuse me, may yet, thanks to our global lessons, if you ever come to london and please do have a nice time and everything, enjoy the sites.

But please, please, please stand on the right of the escalator that mansfield town, the swindon town, mansfield is a good shape, because much like stop port and rex ion bo, just just getting, well, well, kind of, and sweden, in sometimes bad shape, sometimes OK. I voice smoke. From shreck in the group, that's the first .

Watson come at once, if convenient, if inconvenient, come all the same.

go. Yeah, I I Better go. Murder show luck. That's a dead .

rat slain in this very park in broad daylight. What brutish iniquity will this city visit on its inhabitants next web? Son.

it's a dead rat.

He looks so peaceful.

isn't he? No, no, actually he, he looks like, he looks like, can't remember what's a ted rat? It's a ted rat for god sake.

Is everything all right?

Look, share. Look.

look at me. Yes, it's lovely to see you. What's and what am I wearing a football shirt that's too small for you?

Yeah, I got IT when I was twenty nine, but that's not. Where did I tell you I was going this morning out? Yes, yes. yeah. There was more to IT than that though, wasn't there?

Um this is a real head scratcher what's and I do like a mystery.

the football I was going to watch the football yeah I spent eighty four quid on a ticket demands field that spent forty quid on the seat in the way and and now the train has gone I won't make the game and i'm staring at a dead rat in kensington .

gardens actually it's prince of Diana memorial gardens.

Get a memorial garden out of interest because he seems to be of similar importance.

Why didn't you go to the football?

You told me to come here if convenient or inconvenient. Well.

this is terribly inconvenient for you. Isn't IT.

Ah okay, right? yeah. Next time, maybe if you could specify that if IT is terribly inconvenient for me now, I don't need to actually attend the rat funeral.

This is no funeral, Watson. This is an investigation. Let's take a close and .

milk just as account point. Just play in devils' advocate here. Let's not let's just not .

our victim. Let's call him review .

a most peculiar .

appearance and i'll buy no rat unique, one of a kind and now no more the events with thus it's two thousand and .

twenty four. No one needs to be saying thus he .

scuttle out from the heart o in the north side. So most likely he's come from palace Green road, mostly embassies. Oh.

so he's a diplomat, is he?

Then to the rear of the properties of palace gardens. Terrorists, why they are rare. That's nearest.

Of course, he doesn't want to draw attention to himself, but more importantly, he wants access to refuse disposal. It's tuesday. Palace gardens terrace have their bins collected this morning. So it's most likely that rathee was making his way through waaste when he was a costed.

mugged, poor guy went to ride and see a wallet or .

phone on darts across the road and into the head dro. Here he scuttle out and makes his way across the paving slab as the asset. And here look the impressions on the moss.

A cat review unknowingly headed toward the memorial, found in findings of teaching on the precipice. Here he pivots away from the water's age, scarring back towards the robbery. And in there he hides way during that he can conceal himself and escape the tyranny.

He cannot run. He must hide. The cat fails as interesting, withdraws to the also rathee believes he exits his shrub and is stunned by a poor crashing into his back, forcing him down into the slaves, with all five kilograms of his foe pushing down on him. They both know, if rather you can turn around and bites aggressive, the attack could be called off, but there's no time to feeling in sizes, plunge into his spinal column here and here, puncturing vital vessels, breaking his neck, severing the spine. It's over .

trying at one twenty good. Yeah I would be that miss kick off would be there until like twenty five minutes in box, it's probably not worth IT mean, that's even if the train runs perfectly, which IT won't. Sorry, what were you saying?

Come with me, Watson. Follow me.

Yeah yeah. I love the fact they call IT a fast train, but i've still got to change its stock and notating him. I'm the one running through the stations.

Yeah decided if it's blooding fast.

the street will be over here. I bet I today you know but I I didn't see I get in beat you know injuries of clear that form isn't god or for like IT wasn't .

the start of the season. What there is, look at him staring down at us from his grand georgian yet down here, and a tone for your sydney, you feeling based licking his paws like they aren't dripping with the blood of the innocent.

I don't. Where are we?

Palace garden terrorists. why? Because we're confronting the White rat killer out there. Good adventure title.

Ay Watson up where.

sorry, the top floor window.

the cat, we shall .

wait in the park. And IT is us Watson who shell pounds?

No, we won't do that. We won't do any of that. We are going to go for lunch.

Perhaps we should picnic in the memorial gardens.

right? Okay, two things. First, people don't really like IT. When you stuff, you're face next to memorials of the deceased. Second, i'm not going to meet my lunch next to a dead rap. Can we stop talking about IT?

I'm making a point.

but you always making a point when you're not making a point.

Most of the meals you have consumed in london would be within reason to be close distance to a dead.

Yeah, okay, okay. Yeah, I get IT. I get IT and just don't want to look at review, review.

God rest him while I eat. What do you, what do you think? IT, before you start, i'm asking about the food.

What are you thinking?

I rather like the look of the the Prices. Oh yeah, new patron. Well.

there you go. Can M, G, B is they're not paying .

you to eat prone dumplings. Hello, can I get you any drinks or anything to that? Yes, a drink? Yes, definitely.

He says not having looked at the drinks menu. Singer, this guy, please, lad, or medium? Well, my day is ruined, so i'll go large and you, so what do you do?

Oh, my god. He, he just mailed. He bowed to the tie. wait.

yes. hello. I would like the coca cola and the can.

Thank you. Think .

you what?

You bored? yes. So did he don't bow? Why not?

It's very nice that you did. Okay, it's it's very considered. But I can come across as a little insincere you to do to people who maybe don't know you how I just can yeah that's you know I don't know it's just a crappy thing about cultural dinner in baLances.

How is there a cultural and baLance?

So I don't make the rules. I barely understand them, but just know that what i'm saying is accurate yeah, I wish the world work that way, but i'm not entirely sure IT does.

The world is cruel? Yes.

at times in some places.

more than others. Who do you think his owner is?

Sorry, the cat, I have no idea. Be a time I have. You decided on your means. A couple minutes, no problem.

He seemed immediate.

I look good shape to me.

not him. The cat.

still on the cat. We, if he seemed dementia, why didn't he just eat? Raf.

you multiple reasons. Domestic cats wouldn't detection. Ted, on a cleaner creature. Let load a rat. The cat will be aware of the parasite.

Let's just show of the parasites and red gut chat for now.

Curtains closed and closed for some time, bleached by the summer sun, so closed for months.

Okay, i'll bite. You'll bite. Yes, I will .

have a nibble .

on this little morsel of bit you are offering.

Please do your telling me.

One of those houses of kennington gardens had a cat in the window. Cat looked rough.

associated.

right? yes. So now nourished and and what the curtains haven't been opened for months, correct, was IT residents know you could be embassy or officers or government residents.

weird. A much used bike was locked outside. IT wasn't shelter during the severe winter weather. The lock was rusted.

so bike suddenly stopped being used. There was a car tesler .

flat tire me aside front.

I don't know what that means when people say that is that .

passenger side .

or driver side, passenger got so car, you'd say neglected as well.

I wouldn't deed say that obvious signs of neglect. But as our friend, rather, you pointed out, bans still being filled and collected.

Very weird, very weird. Who do we think .

lives that socially progressive.

ecologically sensitive, electric car check, bike check.

an aptitude for innovation, outgoing, like or liked to host. Expand on that here. Google street view of the property. Yeah, the image is assembled from a number of photos collected. If I move here .

in the driveway, let out .

license plates, but the company logo is not .

award kadabra. So aquarium supplies, I think that says.

yes, we look them up fairly small firm, not a particularly large team not based in london either. So why are they here in their van? Well, if you take the owner of the company here, feel grant.

what filling ground from me? Standard, the mitch that doesn't .

ter pop into any search engine film. Grant to CEO acqua tabora, yes, is linked in. The and here we go.

oh, that's the house. Could not be more proud of the team following our first fresh water pool. Instead, allocation first, fake filter low salt draws this pump and check bells assembled offsides due to their sheer size and complexity fitted.

Today you get the idea .

sort of meets a .

natural pool. What's subterranean? I say google satellite images show a hefty structural glass unit extension into the back garden. Problem with glass extensions, of course, eat well. yes. The other problem is we can see inside large dining table, multiple seating pulls outside along the fire pit bar and various lounging areas.

So we have a paradox here. Somebody lives there, still accumulating rubies, food, waistline, recycling. But IT also seems abandoned, bank neglected, expensive car left on the drive curtain and never open, cannot be fed, sociable and outgoing, big, fancy, communal area, but equally reclusive and shelter.

Yes, quite intriguing. We could pull on this thread a little more, Watson, or you could go off to your football match up to you, I suppose.

Well, as we established, I can't go off to the football match actually.

An intriguing adventure within .

our grasp. Gentle men.

yes, Watson.

are we ready? We are ready. Bring IT on bank and break. sorry. yeah.

I just wanted to say that for a dramatic bit before the adverts, we like bring IT on the piano, violin. No great stuff, because this is how you produce high quality audio drama. Just order. Could I get the king pro?

Many goals to talk about us. A to crush fuel radioactive.

What is this?

A football schools of its .

captivating. Yes, what's happening now this street stadia .

is a hok street stadium. Baro .

happens if there's .

a little at hok street, a street .

for you.

you. Are we please go?

Not bother if they win, they go about them, they on. Is that good? Oh yes, very, very good. So 就是。

i was watching that.

yeah. But sorry, I just trying to remind myself in the shower IT was nine palace garden terrace. correct? right? What do we say? And can curtains, car, bike your flashing?

No, god, sorry.

Let me just adjust the town like .

your microphone. Your microphone is flashing.

right? Yeah, that will be battery. Got to new ones. Know i'm i'm going to go get dressed. What's an acceptable length of time to wear genes for before washing them? Durrett can easily go a week.

It's nice to sleep in a bed after a book shelter.

certainly help IT himself to allow the cash. That's for sure. He's everything everywhere, all the to him. Lectures at imperial .

motivation speeches.

theatre shows.

Tet percent o was a private me in sherlock.

So professor prestbury lives at the house. Then why is IT falling into neglect? He's rather elderly. Is he not?

Doesn't look at seventy six, looks far to six. But that's not the mystery. What's the mystery?

But we spend a bit of .

time around the hold park in kington gardens, especially after dark press bry's cat can be seen lurking around there from time to time. You know, exit in the memorial garden. Yeah.

yeah. We witness some of his handy work. sure. That wants to locking up for a life sentence or nine, nine, nine in life sense because the.

Yeah, it's really sore. Really.

really saw what else happens in a stake out.

We, well, nothing, nothing until we see something. Nothing yeah yeah about being impatient and not losing focus. It's about diligence. yeah.

Ask yourself what you need in life, not what you want, what you need. Because IT won't be what society tells us. IT won't be a car, a house IT one IT make more followers. IT will all be driven by our inner human, our inner primate. And as soon as you can tune into that frequency and cut out the distraction as.
