00:00O que é isso?

01:29em Paris. It's her estate.
01:32She never tires of reminding everybody.
01:34He's the ambassador there and she was acting
01:36as a sort of companion
01:38to Miss Hobart.
01:39But now, yes, she's on the way home via various
01:42friends' houses. We're expecting her on
01:44Friday. And, uh,
01:45will she be staying long? Oh, I doubt
01:48it. England is barely big enough
01:50to contain her. She will travel.
01:52Paris, Italy, the Pyrenees.
01:54She was mentioning Russia.
01:55If she finds a new groom.
01:57Our groom was shot. Out of a tree?
02:00In York. Fancy.
02:02Poor George.
02:04Is that why she's coming back?
02:06No groom. Oh, good Lord, no.
02:08That wouldn't stop her. She's coming back
02:10because something went wrong
02:12in Hastings.
02:14Obviously.
02:16So much drama always
02:18with Anne. It's uncanny.
02:21However far away my sister
02:22goes, however long she's gone
02:24for, whatever crises
02:26are happening here, she always, within minutes,
02:28manages to inveigle herself
02:30into becoming the main topic of any given
02:32conversation.
02:37Yes?
02:42Your father and Marion are in the drawing room.
02:45I thought you might have
02:46joined us by the fire for a few minutes.
02:48I would have, but I have everything to unpack
02:50in now. I know we're not very interesting.
02:59It's not you
03:01and it's never you.
03:12What happened
03:13in Hastings
03:14with Miss Hobart?
03:15Nothing.
03:28Odd.
03:29The other day,
03:29the accident.
03:31Miss Walker
03:32is such a curious
03:33little thing.
03:35The answer
03:36rather vulgar.
03:38I think their money
03:38comes from manufacture.
03:41Miss Walker
03:42painfully shy,
03:43which is odd
03:44because she must be
03:45one of the most eligible
03:46young women in Halifax.
03:48She must be worth
03:49three thousand a year
03:50at least.
03:52But so isolated.
03:54So alone.
03:58By all accounts,
03:59not quite the full shilling.
04:02Not,
04:03not the full shilling.
04:04It's unkind,
04:05but
04:05something.
04:07I don't know.
04:10I felt really
04:10very sorry for her.
04:14Of course,
04:14they're surrounded
04:15with uncles
04:16and aunts
04:16and cousins
04:17to guard her fortune,
04:18but
04:18I think what she really
04:21needs is someone
04:21to care about her.
04:23Never mind
04:24the money.
04:24I don't know.
04:25I don't know.
04:37I don't know.
04:37I don't know.
04:38O que é isso?
05:08Do you have any excursions planned, Miss Walker? A holiday?
05:12There has been some talk, a few weeks in the Lake District, with her cousin, Miss Rawson, Catherine Rawson.
05:20Well, I'm satisfied there's no organic disease.
05:24There may be some trauma, whether in the body or in the... from the accident.
05:31But I do think your aunt is right to suggest something like a jaunt to the lakes.
05:35Can that be arranged?
05:38Yes. Will you write to Catherine, dear?
05:41She'll write to Catherine, or I will.
05:44You see, I think she just needs taking out of herself.
05:48Perhaps she spends too much time on her own.
05:52Was she ever introduced in the assembly rooms in Halifax?
05:56No, the death of both her parents at around the time that might have happened meant that, no, she wasn't.
06:04And since John, her brother, my nephew, died on his honeymoon in Naples, we've been very wary of fortune hunters.
06:13And there have been several.
06:15Well, it might have been better for you, dear, if your sister hadn't moved so far away when she got married.
06:22You miss Elizabeth, don't you?
06:25But she did, so...
06:27Wrapping people up so cosily at home isn't always as kind as it might seem.
06:32Certainly not for those inclined towards the melancholy.
06:38Sometimes the best thing one can prescribe isn't medicine, but a little bit of adventure.
