Alfred Hitchcock Presents1955

[opening narration]

Hitchcock's Stand-In:
Hiya. I'm not Hitchcock. I'm Alfred, his stand-in. Someone has to stand here while the lights and the cameras are adjusted and all that stuff, see? And the old boy just don't have the time. I got the job 'cause I look like him. That's what they say, but not to my face. I see they're rolling him in. You suppose I'll look like that when I'm his age?

Alfred Hitchcock:
That will be all, Alfred.

Hitchcock's Stand-In:
Arrivederci, daddy-O.

Alfred Hitchcock:
Cheeky fellow, isn't he? Unfortunately, he may soon be more than a stand-in. We are planning to send out a second company to tour the provinces, and Alfred will play my part. Which brings us to tonight's thrilling shocker. It is called "Jonathan."
