1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 on all available information. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,000 Tonight on Sightings, 3 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,000 many thought the mystery of the English crop circles was a hoax, 4 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,000 but our ongoing investigation has uncovered startling evidence 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000 that may prove extraterrestrial contact. 6 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,000 This intelligence is almost certain it not human. 7 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000 Then what sinister spell has cursed the British royalty for 600 years? 8 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000 We uncover the royal curse tonight. 9 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:52,000 Music 10 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000 Welcome to Sightings. I'm Tim White. 11 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000 Since the early 1980s, 12 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,000 over 2,000 crop circle formations have been discovered in 30 countries, 13 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000 and new ones are being reported every month. 14 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:09,000 Theories about where they come from range from weather anomalies 15 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,000 to extraterrestrials to crazed hedgehogs doing a mating dance. 16 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000 Well, obviously some theories are more credible than others, 17 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000 but the fact remains that something is happening in fields around the world 18 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,000 that no one can fully explain. 19 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:30,000 The stories of unexplained designs appearing mostly in the farm fields of England 20 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000 hit an all-time high in 1990. 21 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,000 News media from around the world were quick to hail these enigmatic circles and lines 22 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,000 as the strangest scientific discovery of the 20th century, 23 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,000 where brief period crop circles became the darling of popular culture. 24 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,000 But then two hoaxes stepped forward to claim that they had created the crop circles, 25 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:56,000 and just as quickly as the phenomenon began, the media dropped the crop circle story. 26 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,000 The hoax theory stuck, and soon the only people still interested were hardcore theorists and scientists. 27 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000 Initially, these were simple single circles, but in 1990, 28 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:14,000 the patterns became much more complex, dramatically so, 29 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,000 and blew right out of the water some of the early theories. 30 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:24,000 The early formations were the size of a domestic run. 31 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:30,000 Now you have formation which are almost the size of Central Park, 32 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:39,000 so that we have enormous growth, both in complexity and in size and in numbers. 33 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000 Michael Green is an archaeologist and architecture historian, 34 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,000 who is also one of the founding members of the Center for Crop Circle Studies. 35 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,000 We're not a religious cult, we're not a strange wacky branch of the UFO movement. 36 00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:00,000 We are trying to use rational means to establish what's going on. 37 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:07,000 And the first thing we learnt this year in particular is that there are a few hoaxes. 38 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:15,000 I'm Dave Chorley, this is Doug Burr, and we are the two people that have created the crop circles in 1978 39 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,000 through to the day. 40 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:22,000 The most impressive thing to me, and the reason why I actually stopped and listened to what they had to say, 41 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000 was not really what they told me, but what they did in the field, 42 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,000 because when they did the demonstration out in Sussex at Chilgrove, 43 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:37,000 the formation itself was quite messy, but it was amazing how quickly it happened. 44 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,000 In 45, 40, 45 minutes, this huge formation was laid down, 45 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,000 and that's even accounting for the fact that half the world's press were trumping around it as well 46 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000 with them asking them for interviews at the same time. 47 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,000 But Doug and Dave had only done a few of the hundreds of cycles that had been done, 48 00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:01,000 and from the evidence, their public demonstrations in broad daylight, they weren't very good at it, 49 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,000 but no one really knew what hoaxes could do and what they couldn't do. 50 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,000 And so I thought, well, here's an ideal opportunity for a scientific experiment, 51 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000 and the best way to do it is through a competition. 52 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Biologist and author Rupert Sheldrake did organize a competition held earlier this year. 53 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,000 The challenge was to see if anyone could create crop circles that could not be identified as hoaxes. 54 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:28,000 The circles were made at night, and the next day, the contest winners demonstrated their techniques. 55 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:36,000 What we found was that the standard of artificial circle making was much higher than most people had expected. 56 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000 These people could do very well. 57 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:47,000 The standard was very high indeed, and the most surprising thing was that people could do all this in complete darkness 58 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000 with making very little noise. 59 00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:02,000 I flew the site the next day, and the aerial pictures that we took show some of the centers of these formations 60 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,000 displaying exactly the characteristics that the genuine circles have displayed, 61 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,000 and exactly the characteristics that many of the experts have said couldn't be done by people. 62 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,000 Things like making rings without having a hole in the center where somebody stands, 63 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:23,000 things like producing a radial effect where the crop splays out from a central point, 64 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:31,000 and the team that won and the team that came second and third produced really marvelous formations which the judges were very impressed by. 65 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,000 So what they show is that many of the features of crop circles could be hoaxes, 66 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:43,000 but they don't show that they are hoaxes, and I mean the analogy that I find most helpful is the fact 67 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000 that the fact that you can forge a $20 bill doesn't prove that all $20 bills of forger is. 68 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:58,000 The first and primary feature which is evident in the genuine phenomenon and not in the hoaxes is the spiraling fingerprint. 69 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,000 Colin Andrews heads up the Circles Phenomenon Research Group in Brantford, Connecticut. 70 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:10,000 He has co-authored two books on crop circles and is believed to have visited more actual crop circle sites than any other researcher. 71 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:18,000 This particular screen shows clearly the difference between the fingerprint, this is the print at the top here, 72 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:25,000 of the genuine phenomenon, the real phenomenon, and all of those hoaxes which we are hearing so much about these days. 73 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:33,000 Andrews believes that the most important patterns to be studied are those where the flow of the crops changes direction within a single circle. 74 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,000 A pattern no human has yet been able to duplicate in public. 75 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:50,000 I think the single most convincing argument for a real phenomenon and against the hoax are the effects that the phenomenon are having upon the plants themselves. 76 00:06:50,000 --> 00:07:01,000 Dr. Levengood, a well-known physicist in the United States, has discovered changes in the structure of the plants themselves 77 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:07,000 and cell structure of the plants molecular structure of the plants on a number of continents. 78 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:13,000 When a formation hits it just knocks the heck out of the embryo, they don't grow, the seeds don't develop. 79 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:21,000 Dr. Levengood has discovered that the cell structure of the crops within a formation are distinctly different from undisturbed crops nearby 80 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,000 and that this new cell structure seriously alters the crops growth. 81 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:35,000 Let me get this straight. A plant that is in a formation undergoes an internal change so that seeds taken from that plant grow a different kind of plant or an altered plant. 82 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:44,000 Altered in both the growth rate and the germination. In some cases it increases quite significantly. 83 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:52,000 Some people maintain that hoaxsters created not only some but all of these formations. You buy that? 84 00:07:52,000 --> 00:08:02,000 Oh god no, no, this is all ridiculous. No, if they had that kind of energy they wouldn't be wasting it out in the field making impressions as a crop. 85 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:07,000 It would be a new kind of energy distribution let's say that I have never heard of. 86 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:12,000 Mathematician Gerald Hawkins is another scientist with an intriguing theory. 87 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:19,000 Professor Hawkins made his mark in the 1950s when he came up with an explanation for Stonehenge still accepted today. 88 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:25,000 Now Hawkins has devised a mathematical formula relating the crop circles to the notes of a musical scale. 89 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:35,000 Help us understand that. You're not suggesting that because there's a relationship between the ratios of the crop circles and the ratios of musical tones that you can somehow play the crop circles. 90 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:43,000 I'm not saying that the crop circles are musical. I'm saying that they follow the same mathematical law as the major diatonic scale. 91 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:50,000 No natural physical process that we know will generate the diatonic scale which is of course the white notes on the piano. 92 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:57,000 Therefore the only theory that we can put forward is that it's done by human beings is all a hoax. 93 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:04,000 But they're clever hoaxes and if it's not a hoax then we have a major scientific problem on our hands. 94 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:12,000 Professor Hawkins has studied the ratios of the sizes of crop circles and found the same ratios between notes and the diatonic scale. 95 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:20,000 So if the music doesn't seem listenable then it seems to imply there's something beyond music being communicated here. 96 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:34,000 Yes it could be a copyright insignia of the primary hoaxes or the crop circle makers and perhaps they may use this later for further information transmission. 97 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,000 But I'm not going to predict what crop circle makers will do next. 98 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:47,000 How can you imply that if even one of the crop circles is not the work of a hoax to that science will have to rethink everything. 99 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,000 I'm afraid so. You only need one in this case and you have a mystery. 100 00:09:52,000 --> 00:10:04,000 What of course stands out clearly now is that we have the uncomfortable fact that this intelligence is almost certain that not human. 101 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:10,000 This is where people will come extremely nervous. The media becomes very nervous. The press becomes extremely nervous. 102 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,000 They don't like mysteries like this. 103 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:28,000 One of the reasons that some thinkers have thought might be behind this is the position of the earth in terms of the terrible damage that is being done by man. 104 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000 Could we be dealing with something which is trying to warn us. 105 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:45,000 Either it's very skillful hoaxes with a tremendous sense of humor or it's some non human intelligence that's completely off the scale of anything that we've contemplated so far. 106 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:57,000 But if they are communications of guile or nature or aliens or whatever if they're communications of some kind from a non human source it's not quite clear what they're saying. 107 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:03,000 Their main message so far seems to be watch this space. 108 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:17,000 Are we any closer today to unraveling the mystery of what or who created the crop circles. Joining me now is George Wingfield director of field research and founding member of the Center for Crop Circle Studies in London England. 109 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,000 George welcome to sightings. 110 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,000 I'll attend. 111 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:24,000 The crop circles have changed over the years. The shapes have changed. The number have changed. 112 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,000 Have you learned anything from those directions. 113 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:35,000 There's no doubt at all that these are of some sort of intelligent origin and this appears to be non human. 114 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000 What do the circles seem to be leading toward. 115 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:48,000 I think they are leading us towards an understanding of some other level of intelligence which is not human. 116 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:53,000 Do you believe George that the crop circles are an ancient phenomenon that they've always been there. 117 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,000 They just haven't been accounted for by by modern means. 118 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,000 No I don't think so. I don't think so at all. 119 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:05,000 I think the crop circles started appearing in quite recent times probably less than 30 years ago. 120 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:10,000 There may have been a few before that but very very few for you. 121 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:16,000 Do the crop circles inspire hope or fear or merely curiosity. 122 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:24,000 Well they certainly inspire hope. I believe the whatever is causing the circles is something which is benign. 123 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:31,000 I don't believe there's anything hostile or evil here which is what some people would have you don't believe. 124 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,000 George Winkfield thank you very much. 125 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,000 Thank you Tim. 126 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,000 And we'll be back with more sightings in just a moment. 127 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:44,000 Coming up next.

protection. 142 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,000 New demand proof not promises. 143 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,000 Saturday. 144 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:10,000 Experience the terror of a drive by shooting 28 rounds with fired the house in Denver and all the episodes Saturday. 145 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,000 It's not a night at the opera but a perfect body slam can be a beautiful thing. 146 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,000 Saturday night's main event right after cops Saturday on Fox. 147 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:30,000 In the past two years Britain's royal family has endured an unprecedented amount of scrutiny and negative press and some people are not surprised. 148 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,000 Because they believe the House of Windsor is suffering under an ancient curse. 149 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:44,000 Are the Windsor curse and the current royal troubles just coincidence or can a curse really create scandal hardship and even death. 150 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:50,000 A curse is one of the most ancient forms of ritual still surviving today. 151 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,000 It can be an elaborate spell or hasty words. 152 00:14:54,000 --> 00:15:00,000 King touch tomb was believed to be cursed and some of those who entered it did die under unusual circumstances. 153 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,000 The hope diamond the largest in the world is also thought to carry a curse. 154 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,000 But can people really be harmed by something that many believe is merely superstition. 155 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:23,000 Curse is magic black magic that is a negative wish that is can be made by word of mouth by saying something that would harm somebody. 156 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,000 Anybody can be victimized. 157 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,000 Anybody is vulnerable. 158 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:42,000 Throughout this century Britain's royal family has been the object of scandal and tragedy from the abdication of Edward the 8th to the bloody terrorist attack that killed Prince Charles favorite uncle. 159 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:53,000 Recent revelations about Princess Diana's unhappy marriage and Fergie's impending divorce from Prince Andrew are just the latest misfortunes that somebody are caused by a little known royal curse. 160 00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:03,000 If such a curse exists could it explain why for the first time the role of the whole British monarchy is being questioned and some are even calling for its end. 161 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:12,000 In 1986 speculation arose that the personal and public misfortunes of the House of Windsor were due to a centuries old curse. 162 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:20,000 It was believed to have first taken its toll on the Queen Mother's family in the early 19th century at their ancestral home in Scotland. 163 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:30,000 Rumors about the cursed surface after it was revealed that two nieces of the Queen Mother thought to be dead had actually been hidden away in a metal hospital for over 40 years. 164 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:38,000 The nieces, Narissa and Catherine Bows-Lion are also first cousins to Queen Elizabeth who is a direct descendant of the Bows-Lion family. 165 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:48,000 The fact is that the Queen has an enormous number of cousins and if you looked through the list of them all you would find all sorts of unfortunate characters. 166 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:56,000 So too there were two nieces of the Queen Mother who it was understood and deed published that they had died many years ago. 167 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,000 And what happened was they were born mentally deficient. 168 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:06,000 What actually happened in 1986 was that both these women were alive and well at this stage. 169 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:13,000 It is not known whether or not the Queen Mother knew about their existence. 170 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:22,000 It was a scandal at the time because it left a tarnished image on the woman that was otherwise known as the nation's favourite granny. 171 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:30,000 The origin of the royal curse is believed to date back to the 17th century and Glom's Castle in northeastern Scotland. 172 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,000 Glom's is the ancestral home of the Bows-Lion family. 173 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:42,000 Here in the 1600s the Lord of Glom's Castle made an error in judgement that many believe the current royal family is still paying for. 174 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:50,000 One of these stories is a result of the feud that existed between the Ogilvy and the Lindsay family. 175 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:59,000 And the story says that a group of Ogilvers were fleeing from the Lindsay's and came to Glom's and asked for shelter. 176 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:06,000 And the story says that what he did was to give them shelter in a small room in the thickness of the wall. 177 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:13,000 But then he closed them in and eventually that room was walled up and of course they died a terrible death. 178 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,000 The Ogilvys were entombed in Glom's Castle for over 100 years. 179 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:22,000 When their chamber was finally opened in the 1700s a grisly discovery was made. 180 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:29,000 They had been so desperately hungry before they died that they'd even got to the stage of eating their own limbs. 181 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:34,000 At least one of the skeletons had his teeth around his forearm. 182 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:39,000 Some believe that when the wall came down a curse was let loose upon the residents of the castle. 183 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,000 A curse conjured up by the murdered members of the Ogilvy clan. 184 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:54,000 The first manifestation of the curse is thought to have occurred in 1821 with the birth of the then Earl's firstborn son, Thomas Bows-Lion, the great great great uncle of Queen Elizabeth. 185 00:18:54,000 --> 00:19:00,000 He was a, if you like, a hybrid between Cosimo and Phantom of the Opera. 186 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,000 His entire body was covered with hair almost like an ape. 187 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,000 He had no arms, very small arms and very small legs. 188 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:18,000 And when his father, the 11th Earl, saw his son and heir, he was so horrified that he banished him from his sight. 189 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:23,000 And the story even goes that he lived to be 100 years old, which would mean that he was still alive in 1921. 190 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:31,000 There is a sort of infamous story about the glom's monster, but frankly I don't know anything about it. 191 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,000 I mean as far as we are concerned here at Glom's, it simply never happened. 192 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:40,000 The curse of Glom's castle has never been openly discussed by the royal family. 193 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:46,000 Any discussion about the curse is vigorously denied by anyone employed by the family. 194 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:52,000 Family take very strong exceptions to that particular story. 195 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,000 And again as far as their concern, it's a little rubbish. 196 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:00,000 It is interesting that it's the way to get a very, very frosty royal look, 197 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:06,000 is if you mention this monster and any story about it in the presence of the Queen Mother or any of her immediate family. 198 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,000 They've never actually commented on the story on the record. 199 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:18,000 But when the Queen Mother's biographer James Wentworth Day went to interview Countess Grandvill, 200 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,000 the Queen Mother's sister in 1967, shortly before her death, 201 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:28,000 she simply turned around and said that she was never allowed to discuss this. 202 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:33,000 And her father and grandfather had point blankly banned them from discussing it. 203 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:40,000 If a society is strongly believing that curse can affect you, 204 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:46,000 then it must by its very nature affect. 205 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,000 You can't escape it, you give in. 206 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,000 Will the curse ever end for the royal family? 207 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,000 Or are they destined to eternal tragedy because of the murderous act 208 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,000 of one of the Queen Mother's misguided ancestors? 209 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,000 Some historians suggest yet another possible reason for the royal curse. 210 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:10,000 At Glom's Castle in 1537, Lady Glom's, the beautiful widow of the 6th Earl, 211 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,000 was accused of being a witch. 212 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,000 She was burned alive, and ever since her death, 213 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,000 strange supernatural phenomena have plagued the castle. 214 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:25,000 Coming up next, does the cousin of the Loch Ness monster lurk in the depths of Lake Champlain? 215 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,000 Swings his entire body around and lifts his neck and head out of the water entirely. 216 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,000 I've got the worst cold a human being ever had. 217 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,000 I've got a major presentation tomorrow. 218 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,000 I've got a rest and I'm out of nightquil. 219 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,000 I could take these, but I'd still be up all night coughing, 220 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,000 which means I'd be erect for the presentation, 221 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,000 which means I could get fired. 222 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,000 But what am I going to do? 223 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,000 Going next door like an idiot, mask? 224 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,000 Could I borrow a cup of nightquil? 225 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,000 Once you know what nightquil can do, 226 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,000 nothing else will do. 227 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:10,000 With its V6 engine, smooth, quiet ride, and easy front-wheel drive handling, 228 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:16,000 the newest Mercury will, quite frankly, remind you of some cars you've driven before. 229 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,000 That's what makes it so different. 230 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,000 Introducing Mercury Villager. 231 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:27,000 If it was just another mini-pan, it wouldn't be a Mercury. 232 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,000 All this and the quality of a Mercury. 233 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,000 I could tell something was wrong the minute I saw him coughing. 234 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,000 Poor Timmy. He was coming down with a cold. 235 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,000 I'll be right out.
