David Suchet: Narrator

Quotes 

• Arthur : [looking at a banner that contains a William Shakespeare quote]  "Some words may hide others."

  [Arthur notices writing hidden in the fabric] 

  Arthur : Of course!

  Narrator : Archibald left his Grandson a note saying, "Dear Arthur, I'm sorry I left you without saying goodbye. But just because you can't see me, doesn't mean I'm not here. I have gone to visit the world of the Mimimoys to collect our rubies. Before, I was in charge of the expedition, but now, it will fall to you... If you accept it, that is.

  Arthur : [determined]  I will accept it, Grandpa.

  Narrator : [as the Grandfather]  Good.

• [first lines] 

  Narrator : [a photo album unlatches and opens to a picture of a bearded man]  This is Archibald Suchot, a treasure hunter, explorer, and engineer. He spent 10 years in Africa building every type of useful thing. Oh, by the way, it's in the heart of Africa that our story begins.

  Narrator : [cut to a country road]  Well, this really isn't Africa, it's Connecticut, and this is the house Archibald lived in before he mysteriously disappeared. But that's a story that Archibald's grandson would be more qualified to tell you. We'll see that he's quite a charming kid, who answers to the name of Arthur.
