00:00Satsang with Mooji
00:30On one of my visits to Satie's house, I took it into my head to explore the back
00:34regions and there followed an encounter that was a strange foreshadowing of my
00:39future.
00:49Hello young fella. Hello. Who let you in?
00:54Miss Stella. Who gave you leave to prowl about?
00:58Miss Stella.
01:06Come and fight.
01:14Stop a minute though. I always give you a reason for fighting.
01:20There it is then. Now come and fight.
01:23Laws of the game remember. Regular rules. Come on.
01:28You've won.
01:30I'll help you.
01:32You've won.
01:34You've won.
01:36I'll help you.
01:38You've won.
01:40You've won.
01:42I'll help you.
01:44No thank you.
01:46Good afternoon.
01:48Same to you.
01:50Come here boy.
01:52You may kiss me if you like.
01:54You may kiss me if you like.
01:56You may kiss me if you like.
01:58You may kiss me if you like.
02:00You may kiss me if you like.
02:02You may kiss me if you like.
02:04You may kiss me if you like.
02:09You may kiss me if you like.
02:31What could I become with these surroundings?
02:34How could my character fail to be influenced by them?
02:40Is it to be wondered at if my thoughts were dazed,
02:43as my eyes were when I came out into the natural light
02:46from those musty yellow rooms?
02:52Estella never again told me I might kiss her.
02:55Indeed, she showed me energetically that she hated me.
02:58On my next visit, I tried to placate her, but without success.
03:13Yes.
03:14Yes.
03:15Whom have we here?
03:16A boy.
03:17A boy of the neighborhood, eh?
03:18Yes, sir.
03:19How do you come here?
03:20Yes, sir.
03:21How do you come here?
03:22A boy of the neighborhood, eh?
03:23Yes, sir.

03:25A boy of the neighborhood, eh?
03:26Yes, sir.

03:34How do you come here?
03:35How do you come here?
03:36I have some something, sir.
03:37Hmm.
03:38Well, you behave yourself.
03:39I have a pretty large experience of boys and your bad set of fellas.
03:40Come along, boy.

04:19Joe Gardner would he come here and bring your indentures

04:41I've never heard the like and what does she suppose I am I should like to know a door mat under your feet
04:48how dare she use me so and what company does she graciously think I'm fit for I wonder you
04:55condescend to come back to such poor society as this I'm sure I do it's what she said Joe
05:02she's on a terrible rampage Pip terrible
05:25so
05:32so
05:39so
05:46so
05:48you are the husband of this boy's sister
06:14are you the husband of this boy's sister
06:23say Pip I happen married your sister and I were at the time what you might call if she was anyways inclined
06:34a single man and you've reared him with the intention of taking him for your apprentice
06:41is that so mr. Gargery
06:47I wouldn't have an objection on your part Pip it was a great wish of your heart and you've brought his indentures with you
06:59you yourself saw me put them in my hat Pip
07:06you expected no premium with the boy Joe why don't you answer
07:26I mean to say Pip that were not a question requiring an answer between yourself and me
07:32he's earned a premium here
07:36Pip give this to your master there are five and twenty guineas in that bag
07:44this is very liberal on your part Pip
07:51may we do our duty both on us by one another and by them which your liberal present have conveyed to be
08:02for the satisfaction of mind of
08:09there must never
08:11there must never
08:12for myself
08:16far be it
08:17for myself
08:22far be it
08:23take them down Estella
08:40am I to come again Miss Emerson?
08:42no
08:43guard your raise your master now
08:46go bye Pip
08:58no
09:03no
09:09no
09:11no
09:13no
09:14Once it had seemed to me that when I should at last roll up my shirt sleeves and go into
09:24the forge as Joe's apprentice, I should be distinguished and happy. Now the reality was
09:30in my hold, I felt only that I had a weight upon me to which the anvil was a feather.
09:44Joe, don't you think I ought to make Miss Avisham a visit?
10:14Well Pip, what for? What for? Well what is any visit for? She might think you wanted something Pip.
10:26I could make it clear to her that I wanted nothing. She might credit that. Similarly, she mightn't.
10:34I just thought, since we're rather slack just now, that I should make a call on Miss
10:51Estavisham. Which her name ain't Estavisham Pip, unless she been rechristened.
10:56We've spoke of this before, old chap. Miss Avisham done the handsome thing by you, but she told me that we're all.
11:08I heard her. All? Yes Joe, I tell you, I heard her.
11:12Well, as I took it, her meaning were, make an end on it, keep asunder.
11:19Joe, I never once thanked her. Or asked after her. Not once in all this time.
11:28That's true. What I wanted to say was, if you would give me half holiday tomorrow, I'd go to town and make a call on Miss Avisham.
11:36That ain't right. What ain't?
11:42That ain't right you're only going to favour one of us.
11:45And what will you do with half holiday? I'll do as much with it as them.
11:49Pip's only going up town visiting. Two can go up town, can't they?
11:53Don't you lose your temper now. There'll be no favouring in this shop till now.
11:58In general, you sticks to your work as well as most men. That'll be half holiday for all.
12:08Just like you, you fool. Giving holidays to great idle hulkers like that.
12:14You're a rich man to waste wages in that way. Wish I was his master.
12:19You'd be everybody's master if you durst. Let her alone.
12:22I'd be a match for all noodles and rogues. And if he's the dunder-headed king of the noodles, then you're the blackest looking rogue between this and France.
12:31You're a foul shroom with a gargery. If that makes a judge of rogues, then you ought to be a good'un.
12:36What did you say? What did he say to me, Pip? And my husband standing by doing nothing? A foul shroom, he called me. Did you hear him? I'm your wife.
12:50If it was my wife, I'd hold you under the pump till you choked.
13:02To hear the names he called me. Me, a married woman. Somebody hold me.
13:11On the rampage, Pip. And then off the rampage. Is that his life?
13:20You? What do you want?
13:25I've come to see Miss Abisham.
13:27It's no good walking home with your mouth wide open.
13:48Aye.
13:49It needs more than fresh air to rinse the rum out of you.
13:51Wait there.
13:54Wait there.
14:21Wait there.
14:22Wait there.
14:23Wait there.
14:24Wait there, O Clem.
14:25With a clink for a stout O Clem.
14:26With a clink for a stout O Clem.
14:30With a clink for a stout O Clem.
14:33With a clink for a stout O Clem.
14:37I'll give her a ride, Lulchus. The fowl shrew.
14:50Master Pip.
14:55Master pep.
15:25You can go up.
15:55Well, Pip, I hope you want nothing from me.
16:12No. You'll get nothing.
16:16I only wanted you to know that...
16:22I'm doing very well in my apprenticeship.
16:28I'm always much obliged to you.
16:32I came to say that.
16:34You came to see Estella? She's here.
16:37She's far out of your reach.
16:40Abroad, educating for a lady.
16:44She's prettier than ever, admired by all who see her.
16:50Well, do you feel that you have lost her?
17:02Come here.
17:10Here. Take it.
17:12No, thank you, Miss Eversham.
17:14You're expecting more? Of course not.
17:16Then take it.
17:18And go.
17:29Come and see me now and then, if you must.
17:32Come on your birthday.
17:38I shall.
17:40Come on.
17:50On my way home, the well-remembered boom of the signal cannon told me that another convict had escaped.
17:58Come on.
18:02Orlick!
18:05Guns is going again.
18:07What are you doing here?
18:08Same as yourself.
18:12Coming home from uptown.
18:16Some of the burrs flown from the cage, eh, young Pip?
18:20Good time for cutting off in, eh?
18:22Just a poor duck.
18:26Eh?
18:30You're a sneaking little devil.
18:32Hold it all like a love here.
18:34You see if you don't.
18:52I shall give me a отец.
18:54Okay, man.
18:55You just used to sleep.
18:56Next time you don't have to dance.
18:57Can you take over them me?
18:58You do not pick when you're feeling the ابxed medium, too?
18:59You need again.
19:00At $250 a day walk?
19:01Down.
19:02If you don't 같 as if, how I shut your head down between me, you'll know, you'll get away there.
19:05I'll grab my laptop.
19:06That's nice.
19:10You'll have to put the energy away from thebourne as a Marian.
19:12I must preparation.
19:14I was trying to make up the anזender not 75 years ago.
19:16I'm terrified.
19:17It'll give me a company Bennett.
19:18I think, I could do my Santi.
19:20PIANO PLAYS
19:50It was less than a week after the attack
20:10that a relative of Mr. Wopsle's came to look after us
20:14and became a blessing to the household.
20:16Her name was Biddy.
20:17Such a fine figure of a woman as she once were, Pip.
20:24But she was destined never to be on the rampage again.
20:28Her sight was disturbed so that she saw objects multiplied.
20:32Her hearing was greatly impaired.
20:35Her memory also, and her speech was unintelligible.
20:39Her memory has been no one for her age, Pip.
20:52I don't know the result of her writing as her.
20:56I have no idea why.
20:59the constables and the Bow Street men from London were about the house for a
21:18week or two doing pretty much what I have heard of like authorities doing in
21:22other such cases but they never took the culprit
21:45I had known Biddy for as long as I could remember for she had once taught me at
21:49the village school she was not beautiful she was common and could
21:53not be like Estella but she was pleasant and wholesome and sweet-tempered and she
21:59had curiously thoughtful and attentive eyes eyes that were very pretty and very
22:05good
22:09how do you manage it Biddy well either I'm very stupid or you're very clever what is it that I
22:21manage to learn everything that I learn and always keep up with me I might as
22:25well ask you how you manage I didn't want to see me turning to at it every night when
22:30I come in from the forge but you never do I suppose I must catch it like a cough you
22:38never really had a chance before you came here did you and see how improved you are
22:41already whatever I know you seem to know I was your first teacher wasn't I that
22:48miserable noisy little school
22:59Biddy
23:04Biddy I
23:06want to be a gentleman Biddy
23:08oh oh oh I I wouldn't if I was you
23:11oh well I have particular reasons
23:14reasons well you know best Pip but don't you think you're happier as you are don't
23:21be stupid Biddy I'm not at all happy as I am surely you must say that
23:27disgusted with my life was I stupid I didn't mean to be well I shall never be
23:34happy unless I can lead a very different sort of life that's a pity Pip yeah I
23:41know well if I could have settled down been half as fond of the Forge as I was
23:48when I was little I couldn't I can't she said I was coarse and common she was
24:00right who did Estella the young lady at Miss Abisham's well it was neither a very
24:09true nor a very polite thing to say oh but she's more beautiful than anyone
24:14ever was Biddy and I admire her dreadfully well I want to be a gentleman on her
24:25account to spite her or to win her over neither both
24:33I don't know if it's despite her Pip I should think that might be better done
24:38by caring nothing for her words and if it's to win her over I should think she
24:43wasn't worth it
25:13I don't like that man nor I you think too he had something to do with the attack on my sister but
25:29he was in the town that afternoon and the convict to escape the same day they never did find him I know I
25:37I still suspect him I'm afraid all it likes me did he ever tell you so well no but he always tries to catch my eye
25:53I'll talk to Joe try and have him dismissed we can get on quite well on our own
26:00I'm glad of one thing Pip that you feel you can give me your confidence
26:10I just wish you could put me right as you used to at school so do I
26:18if only I could get myself to fall in love with you now that would be the thing for me but you never will will you
26:28oh dear Biddy I'll always tell you everything
26:35till you're a gentleman
26:39it was in the fourth year of my apprenticeship to Joe on a Saturday night
26:52that my wild fancy of fortune on a grand scale was suddenly surpassed by sober reality
26:57I have reason to believe that you were a blacksmith by name Joseph or Joe Gargery
27:06sir you have an apprentice commonly known as Pip is he present
27:11yes indeed I wish to have a private conversation with you two it will take a little time
27:27Joe I know that man I met him once at Miss Abisham's years ago
27:39my name is Jaggers I'm a lawyer in London I have an unusual business to transact and I commence by explaining that it is not of my originating
27:55if my advice had been asked I would not have been here it was not asked and you will see me here
28:02I am the confidential agent of another
28:04Joseph Gargery I am the bearer of an offer to relieve you of your apprentice
28:11you would not object to cancel his indentures at his request and for his own good
28:17you would not want anything for so doing
28:20Lord forbid I should want anything for not standing in Pip's way
28:26the question is would you want anything do you want anything
28:29the answer is no
28:31very well
28:32recollect that admission and don't try and go from it presently
28:35who's going to try
28:37I don't say anybody is
28:38now I return to this young fellow
28:42and the communication I have to make is that he has great expectations
28:48I am instructed to communicate to him that he will come into a handsome property
28:58further it is the desire of the present possessor of that property
29:03that he be immediately removed from his present sphere of life and from this place
29:07and brought up as a gentleman
29:09in a word as a young fellow of great expectations
29:14and now mr. Pip I address the rest of what I have to say to you
29:19you are to understand first that it is the request of the person from whom I take my instructions
29:27that you always bear the name of Pip
29:30you will have no objection I dare say to your
29:34expectations being encumbered with that easy condition
29:40if you have now is the time to mention it
29:44you are to understand
29:46that the name of your benefactor remains a profound secret until that person chooses to reveal it
29:52it is the intention of that person to reveal it
29:55at first hand by word of mouth to yourself
29:57well would she
29:59when will the name be revealed mr. Jackers
30:02I cannot say
30:03no one can say
30:05maybe years hence
30:07but you are distinct clear to understand
30:11that you are most positively prohibited
30:13from making any inquiry about that person
30:16that condition
30:17is laid down
30:19that secret is held solely by that person and by me
30:26well now we turn to the mere details of arrangement
30:32you must know that although I have used the word expectations more than once you are
30:38not endowed with expectations only
30:41that is already lodged in my hands a sum of money
30:44amply sufficient for your suitable education and maintenance
30:49you will please regard me as your guardian

30:53I am paid for my services or I should not render them
30:57now it is considered that you must be
30:59better educated in accordance with your altered position
31:02you will therefore be placed immediately under a proper tutor
31:06there is a certain man of whom I have some knowledge I think might suit the purpose
31:13I don't recommend him observed because I never recommend anybody
31:17the gentleman I have in mind is one Matthew Pockett
31:21Matthew Pockett
31:23do you know the name?
31:25I believe he is a relative of Miss Havisham
31:28I heard her mention his name more than once

32:11I are understood
32:13but what if it were in my instructions to make you a present?

32:19as compensation for the loss of his services
32:23is that he welcome to go free with his services to honour and fortune
32:29as no words can tell him
32:31and if you think his money can make compensation to me
32:35for the loss of the little child
32:39will come to the forge

33:51they'll soon go
33:53aye
33:55they'll soon go
33:57Joe
34:01I've been thinking Joe
34:03when I go down tomorrow and order my new clothes
34:05I shall tell the tailor that I'll come and put them on there before I leave
34:09Mr. and Mrs. Hubble might like to see you in your new gentle figure Pip
34:17and Wopsle
34:19and a jolly bargeman might take it as a compliment
34:22but that's just what I don't want
34:25it would be very disagreeable to be stared at by all the people of the village
34:30well they'd make such a coarse and common business of it
34:33and have you thought Pip
34:36about when you'll show yourself to Mr. Gargery and your sister and me
34:40well if you weren't so exceedingly quick biddy you'd have heard me say
34:43I'll bring all my clothes in a bundle here one evening
34:46most likely on the evening before I go away
35:03Joe's a dear good fellow biddy
35:11but he is rather backward in some things
35:15in his learning and in his manners for instance
35:17won't his manners do then?
35:19my dear biddy they do very well here
35:21oh I see
35:23they do very well here
35:25well if I was to remove Joe into a higher sphere
35:28as I hope to when I come fully into my property
35:31well his manners would hardly do him justice
35:34don't you think he knows that?
35:37what do you mean?
35:38have you never considered that he might be proud?
35:41Joe proud?
35:42pride is not all of one kind Pip
35:46didn't expect to see this in you biddy
35:49to see what?
35:51you're envious and grudging
35:52if you have the heart to think so
35:55you're dissatisfied on account of my rise in fortune
35:58and you can't help showing it
36:00you can say so over and over again
36:01if you have the heart to think so
36:02if you have the heart to be so you mean
36:05well I did intend to ask you to use whatever little opportunities you might have
36:09after I've gone to improve dear Joe
36:15after this
36:17I ask you nothing
36:19I'm extremely sorry to see this in you biddy
36:21it's a bad side of human nature
36:25a gentleman should not be unjust

38:05you'll repent it quickly.
38:07my dear your friend. good morning mr. Pumble.
38:11I give you joy of your good fortune.
38:13Woffsell has just told me. well deserved. well deserved.
38:17and to think mr. Trapp that I should have been the humble instrument of leading up to it.
38:21it's a proud reward. yes sir. indeed yes.
38:25oh my dear young friend if you would allow me to call you so.
38:27was it not I who gave your name to miss Havisham. a local boy to play for her.
38:31mr. Pumble.
38:33I beg you not to mention her name in connection with my good fortune.
38:37nothing is ever to be said or hinted at on that boy.
38:41oh my dear young friend you can't rely upon me.
38:43are you bringing me numbers five and eight you vagabond or shall I kick you out of the shop and bring them myself?
38:51sit down sir. please do.
38:58I know sir that London gentlemen are not expected to patronise local work as a rule
39:04but if you could give me a turn now and then in the quality of a townsman I should greatly esteem it.
39:12my dear young friend you must be hungry you must be exhausted.
39:15shall we share a collation at the blue ball?
39:18and your sister which had the honor of bringing you up by hand.
39:21mr. Pumble.
39:22it's a sad picture to reflect her that she's no longer equal to fully understanding that honor.
39:26mr. Pumblechuk.
39:27not now not now.
39:31now sir I must ask your advice in reference to my own affairs.
39:35now there's an opportunity for a great amalgamation and monopoly of the corn and seed trade on my premises.
39:41if enlarged what's wanting is more capital.
39:44mr. Pumblechuk.
39:45another time Trav another time.
39:47I'm going to London miss pocket and I want to say goodbye to miss Havisham.
39:54I'm going to London miss pocket and I want to say goodbye to miss Havisham.
40:01I'm going to London miss pocket and I want to say goodbye to miss Havisham.
40:08I'm going to London miss pocket and I want to say goodbye to miss Havisham.
40:15good fortune since I last saw you.
40:22this is a gay figure
40:31I've come in as such good fortune since I last saw you
40:37I am so grateful for it
40:41I heard about it
40:43Mr Jaggers told me
40:45so you were adopted by a rich person
40:49yes Miss Aversham
40:51not named
40:53no Miss Aversham
40:55and Mr Jaggers is made your guardian
40:58yes
41:00well you have a promising career ahead of you
41:04be good, deserve it
41:07and abide by Mr Jaggers instructions
41:11you will always keep the name of Pip
41:21please
41:23please
41:42I had heard much of the immensity of London.
42:01But my first impression, as I searched for Mr Jagger's office,
42:05was that it was rather ugly, crooked, narrow and dirty.
42:12I had no idea how long it is.
42:21He'll not see you today.
42:29Not now, not you, no.
42:34Sir, sir, Mr Jagger's, please.
42:44Is he at home?
42:46Am I addressing Mr Pimp?
42:49Yes, sir.
42:51Enough.
42:52I want to know no more than I know.
42:55As to the result, it's a toss-up.
42:57I told you from the first it was a toss-up.
42:59Have you paid Wemmick?
43:00We made the money up this morning, sir.
43:01I don't ask when you made it up or where or whether you made it up at all.
43:05Has Wemmick got it?
43:06Yes, sir.
43:07Good.
43:08Then you can go.
43:09Now, who's next?
43:10Mr Jagger's.
43:11You say another word to me and I'll throw up your case.
43:13Yeah, but we fought, Mr Jagger's.
43:14That is what I told you not to do.
43:20I think for you and that's enough.
43:23Now go.
43:24If I want you, I know where to find you.
43:27Mr Pimp.
43:30Ah.
43:31You are to go to Garden Court, sir, to young Mr Pocket's rooms.
43:35A bed has been sent in for your accommodation
43:38and tomorrow he will take you on a visit to his father's house to see how you like it.
43:41Now, these are the cards of certain tradesmen with whom you are to deal.
43:45You'll find your credit good, Mr Pimp.
43:47But I shall by this means be able to check your bills
43:50and pull you up if I find you out running the constable.
43:54I understand.
43:55Course you go wrong somehow, but that's no fault of mine.
43:57Good day, Mr Pimp.
43:58Step forward, Amelia.
44:03You do realise, woman, that but for me you wouldn't be here?
44:07Yes, sir, Lord bless you.
44:08Then why do you come?
44:10My Ned, sir.
44:13Now, I'll tell you what once and for all.
44:16If you come here bothering me about your Ned,
44:18I'll make an example of both your Ned and you
44:21and let you slip through me fingers.
44:23Oh, no, sir.
44:25Please, sir.
44:26Mr Jaggers?
44:27How do I find Garden Court?
44:29Should I sign for a coach?
44:30Oh, ask Wemmick.
44:31He'll walk round with you.
44:33Wemmick?
44:34The clerk, Mr Pimp.
44:35The clerk.
44:36Thank you, Mr Jaggers.
44:37Good morning.
44:37I mean, I mean, good afternoon.
44:39Have you paid Wemmick yet?
44:41Oh, yes, sir.
44:42Every father.
44:43Very well, then he's done all you've got to do.
44:45You say another word.
44:47One single word and Wemmick shall give you your money back.
44:51Without me to defend him, your man will hang.
45:07You were never in London before?
45:09No, never.
45:10I suppose I always knew you once.
45:13Shrump to think of it now.
45:15All people under pressure and ask them.
45:18Is it really a very wicked place, Mr Wemmick?
45:21It seems to be.
45:22Oh, you may get cheated, robbed and murdered in London.
45:25And plenty of people anywhere that'll do that for you.
45:28You mean if there's bad blood between you and them?
45:30I mean, if there's something to be got by it.
45:32Bad blood's got nothing to do with it.
45:35Come on, come on.
45:37As I keep the cash, no doubt we shall meet pretty often.
45:40I hardly know what to make of Mr Jaggers' manner.
45:43Tell him that and he'll take it as a compliment.
45:46He intends you shouldn't know what to make of him.
45:49But for what reason?
45:50Professional reasons.
45:52He's gone out.
45:54He hardly thought you'd come so soon.
45:56Oh.
45:58Well then, I shall just wait here till he comes back.
46:02Don't want me any more?
46:04No, thank you.
46:05Good day then.
46:06Good day and thank you again.
46:08Oh, to be sure, you're in the habit of shaking hands.
46:12Good day.
46:13Is it out of fashion in London?
46:15Er...
46:16No.
46:17No.
46:18I've just got so out of it some.
46:21Very glad I'm sure to make your acquaintance.
46:24I'm sure to make your acquaintance.
46:25I'm sure to make your acquaintance.
46:26I'm sure to make your acquaintance.
46:31Well, I won't be.
46:32I'll get...
46:33You know, I won't be.
46:34I won't be.
46:35I won't be.
46:36Mr. Pockett.
46:59Dear me, Mr. Pipp.
47:01I'm extremely sorry.
47:02Have you waited long?
47:03I knew there was a coach from your part of the country at midday and I thought you'd come by that one.
47:08The fact is I've been out on your account.
47:11Not that it's any excuse, of course, but I thought that coming from the country you might like a little fruit after dinner.
47:16So I went to Covent Garden Market to get it fresh.
47:19Oh, dear me, the store sticks so.
47:23Would you mind?
47:31There. Allow me to lead the way.
47:33I'm rather bare here, but it's all the bits and pieces they could spare from home.
47:56I hope you'll be able to make up tolerably well.
47:59This is our sitting room.
48:02And, er, this is our bedroom.
48:19Rather musty, but garden court is musty.
48:23But I know you.
48:29Lord bless me.
48:32You're the boy I found prowling at Miss Havisham's.
48:36And you're the pale young gentleman I fought with.
48:39When we met Mr Pip at Miss Havisham's, you hadn't come into your good fortune, had you?
48:49No.
48:50That happened very lightly.
48:52You never told me what you were doing at Miss Havisham's that day.
48:55Same as you.
48:56Miss Havisham had sent for me to see if she could take a fancy to me.
48:59But she couldn't.
49:00At all of it, she didn't.
49:01Bad taste on her part, but a fact.
49:03She preferred a little blacksmith.
49:09Mr Poker.
49:10Please, won't you do me the favour of calling me Herbert?
49:13My name's Philip.
49:15I don't think I'm much take to Philip.
49:17It sounds like a moral boy out of a spelling book.
49:20Well, then call me Pip.
49:22I tell you what, we're so harmonious and you're having been a blacksmith, would you mind?
49:27Mind what?
49:28Would you mind Handel for a name?
49:30Handel?
49:31Well, there's a charming piece of music by Handel who's he called a harmonious blacksmith.
49:35Would you mind?
49:36I should like that very much.
49:39I would take it as a great kindness, Herbert.
50:01Well, I know very little of the ways of politeness.
50:04If you would give me a hint whenever you see me at a loss or going wrong.
50:08Well, my dear Handel, of course.
50:11And let me introduce the topic by mentioning that in London,
50:14it's not the custom to put the knife in the mouth for fear of accidents.
50:18And while the fork is reserved for that use, it's not put further in the necessary.
50:22It's scarcely worth mentioning, only it's as well to do as other people do, isn't it?
50:27Like this?
50:29Erm...
50:31Like this.
50:38And the spoon.
50:43It's not generally used overhand, but under.
50:50This has two advantages.
50:51You save a good deal of the attitude of opening oysters on the part of the right elbow,
50:55and you can get at your mouth better.
50:57Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
51:02Splendid!
51:17I suppose if I'd come out of that meeting with Miss Havisham successfully,
51:21I should have been the one to be provided for.
51:24Might even have been what's-his-name to Estella.
51:27What's-his-named?
51:29Betrothed, engaged, you know.
51:31You wouldn't have liked that?
51:32Certainly not.
51:33She's such a tartar.
51:35Miss Havisham?
51:36Well, I don't say no to that, but I meant Estella.
51:39That girl's hard and haughty, capricious to the last degree.
51:44She's been brought up by Miss Havisham to wreak revenge on all the male sex.
51:48Why?
51:49What revenge?
51:50Lord Handel, don't you know?
51:52No.
51:53It's quite a story.
51:56Excuse me mentioning it, Handel, but society as a body doesn't expect one to be so strictly conscientious
52:01in emptying one's glass as to turn it bottom upwards with the rim on one's nose.
52:05You must sip it.
52:06Oh.
52:07Well, thank you, Herbert.
52:08Not at all.
52:14Will you tell me about Miss Havisham now?
52:22Of course.
52:24Well, she was a terribly spoiled child, I've been told.
52:30Her father owned a brewery in your part of the country and was very rich.
52:36He denied her nothing.
52:38Well, then, her mother died and he married again and had a son called Arthur.
52:47Now, he turned out to be altogether bad.
52:50Well, eventually, Mr Havisham disinherited Arthur and when he died left him next to nothing.
52:57Miss Havisham got everything.
52:59What about Arthur's mother?
53:01She died too.
53:02Oh.
53:03Well, one day, there appeared on the scene, at the races, I think, a certain man who made
53:10love to Miss Havisham.
53:11How do you know all this, Herbert?
53:13Oh.
53:14Piecing it all out for myself.
53:16My father always avoids it and gets angry when I ask questions.
53:20Why?
53:21Well, this man, this lover, managed to get great sums of money from Miss Havisham.
53:26Well, my father tried to warn her that she was placing herself in his power, but she ordered
53:30him out of the house in a rage.
53:32He's never seen her since.
53:33Well, why didn't Mr Jaggers advise her?
53:36Well, he wasn't her solicitor then.
53:38Anyway, she was too haughty and too much in love to be advised by anyone.
53:43So, the man proposed to her, she accepted him, and the day for the wedding was fixed.
53:50Well, go on, go on.
53:52Well, the wedding dresses were bought, all the guests invited.
53:55Then the morning came, but not the bridegroom.
54:00He wrote her a letter.
54:02Of course, which she received at 20 minutes to nine.
54:08At which hour she afterwards stopped all the clocks.
54:13Well, she was very ill after that, and when she recovered, laid the whole place to waste,
54:21as you've seen it.
54:23She's never since looked on the light of day.
54:28I wonder why the man broke the marriage off.
54:32Well, if he'd seen it through, he'd have got all her property.
54:35I don't know.
54:38It's late, Handel.
54:40We have a busy day tomorrow.
54:43Herbert?
54:45Hmm?
54:47What relation is Estella and Miss Havisham?
54:51None that I know of.
54:53She's adopted.
54:55When was she adopted?
54:57I don't know.
54:58Well, there's always been an Estella ever since I've heard of Miss Havisham.
55:02Come on, Handel.
55:03We must sleep now.
55:04Tomorrow I shall take you to Hammersmith to meet my family.
