The Famous Five (1978–1979): Season 3, Episode 5 - Five Go to Demon's Rocks: Part 2 - full transcript

Master Hayling! Ahoy there!

Hello!

Thats the Hayling kid!

Yes, interfering brat.

Thats all we need. Who are the others?

I dunno. Wed better keep
a close eye on them all.

Have you found the Wreckers
gold yet, Mr. Boogle?

Dont you jibe about that, young un.

There been many a dark deed
done for that gold in the past

and many anotherll be done
for it yet, III warrant.

Hey! Whos got the key?
- Not me.



We cant have lost it.
Someone must have stolen it.

Those cliffs over there. Thats
where the Wreckers Caves are.

What are these Wreckers
we keep hearing about?

Mr. Booglell tell you.

Here we are, young uns. Now
listen, weve only got a few minutes,

otherwise well be cut off. Anyway,
youll see the caverns in half that time.

Come back! Come back, please!

Look, Mr. Boogie, look
what Mischiefs found!

Golden souvereign.

I couldnt believe my eyes
when I saw it, but there it was

in that young Hayling kids hand as
clear as anything, gold beyond any doubt.

What are we going to do?

Look, only the monkey knows
where it found that coin.

So we steal the monkey, yeah!



No.
- No?

Too risky, Jacob, no point.
But I was just thinking,

wouldnt it be a shame if that
little monkey had a nasty accident...

I wonder what thisd
be like in real gale?

Don't know. Probably sway about
a bit like the Eiffel Tower.

What do you mean?

Well, right at the top, in a strongish
wind, they say it sways several feet.

Hope this doesn't. cos if
it does, III fell sea sick!

Course it wont, Dick!

I hope this old lighthouse is safe.

Anyway, the Eiffel Tower was built
to sway around like a flag pole.

This isnt... its stood up to
millions of storms in its time.

I should think the
foundations go way down.

Yes, and funnily enough, when
they drilled through the rocks

they found all sorts of natural shafts
and holes and Dad made plans of them.

Thanks. Here, open this.

Tinker, do you think you could find
me a few of your fathers plans?

Id like to see them.

I think they're in the light
room. III just go and check.

Tea wont be that long.

Whats for tea?

Sausages, baked beans,
followed by cakes and biscuits.

You don't sound too sure.

Well, if youre cooking
Im not surprised.

Tired, Dick?

Well, you sit there and reserve
your strength. Youll need it later!

What on earth for?

For doing the washing up!

Now it's raining, they
are all be save inside.

And I get wet.

Stop whinig. We will get rich.

And wet. And there's a storm
coming up. I'll capsize.

You won't. And now go on.

I go back to the tavern,
mind you don't spoil it.

I always have to do the dirty work
while you sit in a nice, warm room.

That was terrific!

Just right after a days treasure hunt!

Im worried about Ebenezer, he
saw the coin that Mischief found.

So what can he do?

I don't trust him, thats all.

Who does?

I bet it was him and
Jacob that stole our key.

Id like to see them
try and get in, though!

Timmyd see them off, wouldnt you, Tim?

Wheres he gone?

Come on.

III just go and get Mischief!

Timmy! What is it?

Must be someone out there.

Hey, Julian!

Oh no!

The door is locked,
weve been locked in.

So were prisoners here.

No, we can get out somehow. The trouble
is, someone els might want to get in.

And weve got to make it
as difficult as we can.

Hey, these will do.

Out of the way, Timmy.

Give me that one.

Well?

Just look at me!

Did you do it?

Yeah, but the next time you can go.

I wont have to. Here, those
little brats are there now for good.

Where they cant have interfere no more.

How long have we been
searching them caves?

Man and boy...

Years and years weve been
scarping and scratching

and not so much as a brass button
and then that flaming monkey,

in just a minute or two, gets a sniff
of it. And there it is in their hands,

a gold coin. Oh, makes you boil.

Maybe we better buy a monkey.

A monkey? A drink,
thats what you can buy.

Sounds like theres going to be a storm.

Well, at least we
wont have any visitors.

Im glad we edged the
door up all the same.

Here, look at this!

These old plans are very interesting.

Look, the foundations are
hollow all the way down.

Yes, and look, theres
a trapsoor down here.

Somethings puzzling me.
- What?

Well, we all suspect Ebby
and Jacob of taking the key.

Right.

Dyou know what? It was gone
before they saw us with the coin.

Go on.

You mean they mustve had another
reason for wanting the key?

Right.

Wait a minute! Remember what old
Jeremiah Boogle said about the Wreckers,

about their having a way
from the rocks to the caves.

Yes, and Mischief ran off, my compass
pointed due east, towards here!

Thats it! They think the Wreckers way
comes out here, actually in the lighthouse.

Has your father ever
been down in those caves?

I don't suppose hes
gone treasure hunting.

Only the villagers
believe that there is any.

Theyve had a lifetime
to search the caves!

Yes, but not under
here in the foundations.

Thats it! Whoever wants
to get in knows this,

and we left the key in the door. Stupid!

Speak for yourself!

I am. Now, come on. Weve got
to go and look in that trapdoor.

Ready? One, two, three, lift!

And again.

Its stuck!

We must have another look. Come on.

Its a filthy night.

So what. Its like I said, ifa monkey
can get a sniff of it, so can we.

You go. I been out already.

Out already. Well stay out all
night and every night if necessary,

until we find it. Come on!

Nearly got it now.

Its coming.

Im saturated under all this here.
You don't think of that, do you?

Perhaps you didn't hear the
first time, or perhaps you forgot.

Theres a monkey in the
works, remember? Come on!

Ithinkthats nearly it.

One, two, three, thats it!

Whats the matter with you?

Why cant we do it tomorrow?

Because tomorrow may
be too late! Come on!

Oh Ebby!

Cant wait until tomorrow?

No, the tides out now.

And it will be twelve hours
from now, and itll be light.

Itll always be dark down there.

I vote we wait til towmorrow.

Its too spooky to go down tonight.

Whether its light or dark,
itll always be spooky.

Besides you don't have to
come if you don't want to.

Oh thanks.

Well, here goes.

Be seeing you. I hope.

No skimping, mind you.
Rake over every stone.

Weve only been doing
this for thirty years.

Yes, we must have overlooked
some little cranny somewhere.

Aye, well start in the inner cave.

Watch it, Dick, it suddenly
gets very low here.

Hey Julian!

Yeah.

I feel scared.

That makes two of us.

Yeah, it was in here
where the monkey found it.

Come on. Lets go to work.

Slavedriver!

Was that you?

Of course not.

What was it then?

How should I know?

Whoah there, what you shying at?

This place be haunted.

Aye, and were going to lay the ghost.

Cant you hear the echo?
Its a sort ofAsdic...

Its coming from down there.

Its a hinge of some son.

Couldnt be from a door,
unless the tide brought it in.

No, its from a chest, an old chest.

Atreasure chest?

Could be.

Hey look, theres a ledge up there!

Well, we cant reach it.

Lets look around to find
something to stand on.

III go this way.

Q KEY-

So thats how the monkey
solved the problem.

He got down to the treasure
through this hole, but we cant.

But he has led us to it.
Its under the lighthouse!

Found anything?

No. You?

No, nothing there.

Come on. III give you a leg up. See
if you can reach anything that way.

Q KEY-

Come on.

Your lamp, dope.

Ebby! Wait for me.

Julian.

Yes?

Weve found the treasure.

Ah! Really!

Talk about pennies from heaven!

Just bring me down a handful.

Theres thousands of them up
there, the chests full of them.

We need something to get up there with.

Chaird be bettern nothing.

Lets go and get that to start with.

What about this lot?

Oh well be getting thousands in a minute.
Well pick em up when we come back.

Come on.

We wont tell them yet.
Yknow make it a surprise.

Everything all right down there?

I suppose so.

Well, we found it!

WOW

Hey! Theres plenty more down
there so he can have a bit.

Trouble is we need a chair
or something to get at them.

Theres a step ladder out in the hall.

Great. Thatll do fine.

Hold this for me, Anne.

Great. Thank you.

Theres something else
for you down here. Okay.

Julian, come back! Quick!

Come back, quick, quick,
somebodys trying to get in. Hurry.

You fool, youve stolen the wrong key.

Oh, shut up!

Upstairs!

Dick, George, back there.

Oh my word. Its all down there.

Ullo, ullo.

On the trapdoor, quickly!

Id better
check we can get out.

Come back, quickly,
downstairs, all of you.

Come on up and help us to shove.

Quick, Anne, Tinker! Quick.

Theyre nearly through.

If one of us gets off, they might
just be strong enough to tip us off.

Sooner or later one of
us has got to go for help.

You saw what nearly happened
when we werent all on here.

Dont worry, well think of something.

See what I mean!

I burn them off.

The light still works, and the
storm bell. Shall I go and start it?

Yeah, well have to take a chance.

Save your light, you fool!

Flap your arms about,
get some air circulating.

If we cant lift em
off, well cough em off!

Dont worry. It must be a
lot worse for them below,

the smoke cant escape
as well as it can for us.

Police? Dick, Jeremiah.
Trouble at the lighthouse.

Julian, don't want to sound depressing,
but my feet are getting quite toasted.

Same here.

Hate singed toast.

Quick, get yours going. Another
minute or two and wed had it alight.

Oh dear, oh dear, would have
to be teak. Come on, come on!

I give you the matches.

You are stupid, you
don't have your own fire?

You stupid idiot. Sounds
if there's only one in it.

Come on.

Its no good.

Up there? Can you hear us?

No!

I just thought Id ask.
Excuse me for asking again,

but is there a way out of here?

I don't know. The monkey might!

You would like to ask him, would you?

Delighted, if you tell me how.

Ah, see whatchou mean. Only
were going to drown in a minute.

The tides coming up fast. Only a
matter of moments and itll be goodbye.

I don't believe it, neither must you.

The tide has been known
to come up that far.

I didn't see any water mark
that high. Did you, Dick?

Bit too scared to notice.

Yeah.

Help us young ladies and sirs.
You cant let us drown. Help, help!

We cant just let them drown.

Course we cant.

Stand still. Its the
biggest con trick ever.

Help, help, Jacob, Im going.

Forgive me for all, all
the sins Ive done yer.

If you wont save him, I will!

Ladies, you lovely little darlings.
I am grateful for your kind

and considerate heads and now, young
sirs, you will take us to these...

Youve got no choice unless you
want us to put you down there

and close the lid on you, and
the tide is coming in. So...

Convicted on your on statement
in front of witnesses!

I arrest you, Ebenezer and Jacob Loomer.

What for?

For stealing a key, for breaking
and entering, for terrorising

and threatening to drown five young
people. Twenty years on the moor.

It must be worth that. Come on.

I blame you for this.

Well done, young uns.

Mr. Boogie, look we found the treasure.

Well done again.

You said if we found any sign of
the treasure youd eat your hat.

We found more than a
sign. Weve found the lot.

Well...

Im a man of my word.

Whats it like?

Tasty. Perhaps a touch too much salt!
