00:00The End
00:10Middle-in. Thank you.
00:14Flat bottom if you've got it.
00:21What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:23Helping.
00:24No you're not. You can't.
00:26I said you wanted help with the wall.
00:28Aye, not with the putting. Sorting is all you're good for.
00:32Sorting?
00:33Big, small, midlands, funny shaped ones.
00:37You start off sorting, then picking.
00:39After three or four years you get to the putting.
00:41Aye, then you get to the putting.
00:43Three or four years?
00:44Listen, farming is a way of life.
00:46It's in us bones.
00:48You've got to live it to know it.
00:50At least you've lived it.
00:51It's in us bones.
00:53Is that my voice you was meant to be doing then?
00:55Your cheeky so-and-so?
00:57Come on, you've been promoted to picking.
00:59Aye, our picking.
01:00Have you been to the stable to check on Joan and the Littlin?
01:03That's exactly where I'm off to next.
01:05Good luck, James.
01:06I think I can manage to pick up a few rocks.
01:09They're stones. They're not rocks you're picking up, they're stones.
01:13Stones.
01:14Make sure you give her plenty of-
01:15Plenty of hair, I know.
01:19Rounded midland.
01:21Right. Rounded.
01:23Middle.
01:24Here we go.
01:25This one looks about right.
01:28Perfect.
01:29Are you kidding me?
01:33Come and see this.
01:34Come on, Rosie.
01:35Can we take the baby to see the pony?
01:36Come on, Jimmy, lad.
01:37Let's go.
01:38I saw that, Dad.
01:39Aye, I've got neighbours to think of.
01:40Be a bloody laughing stock.
01:41Morning, Alice.
01:42That's her.
01:43Whoo!
01:44I saw that, Dad.
01:46Aye, I've got neighbours to think of.
01:49Be a bloody laughing stock.
01:53Morning, Alice.
01:57That's her.
02:01Isn't she adorable?
02:02She's getting cheeky.
02:05Maybe that's what we should call her.
02:07I still think we should call her Coco.
02:09Coco and Candy folk will think we're running a blooming switch.
02:11in a blooming sweet shop.
02:13I can near grandmother.
02:14Still can't believe it.
02:16It's all down hill from now on, lass.
02:18This came for you.
02:19It's from nursing college.
02:37You got in?
02:39I got in.
02:41She got in?
02:52Thank you, Mrs Hall.
02:55Very good.
03:03Mr Farnham, I have a little request.
03:05Oh?
03:05Yes.
03:06I'd like to request a leave to go to Edwards.
03:09It's Mary's first birthday's coming up.
03:12Weekend after next.
03:14I see.
03:18Will that be all right?
03:19Yes, of course.
03:21I'll be sure to make you a couple of pies.
03:23Hopefully that'll see you through.
03:25I coped perfectly well before when you weren't here.
03:27I won't need your pies.
03:28Mrs H.
03:29I'm in dire straits.
03:31I'm going riding with Charlotte later.
03:33I fished down my britches and, well, look.
03:37Possibly not the beautiful Yorkshire view she had in mind.
03:40Would you like me to put a stitch in them?
03:42That's possible.
03:43Of course it is.
03:45Also, do either of you have the foggiest idea about playing croquet?
03:48I believe when one plays on horseback it's known as polo.
03:51No, it's for tomorrow.
03:52The general's croquet lunch.
03:54Well, you'll excel at half of that.
03:56I'd like him to think I'm not a complete Neanderthal.
03:59I'll say what I can think of.
04:00You're a wonder.
04:02Have me moments.
04:03And this man fought a war?
04:04Won a war.
04:07James, cutting it at middle find this morning, don't you think?
04:09I bet you're just finishing your breakfast.
04:11To be early is to be on time.
04:12To be on time is to be late.
04:14Cup of tea.
04:15Please.
04:15Out of the question.
04:17Our work appointments call.
04:19Onwards to work we go.
04:29Mrs. Stokes and Hilda?
04:31Here.
04:32Where's the goat?
04:34Oh, well, she's lame.
04:36And you came all the way here to tell me that without her?
04:39It's still quite as simple as that, Mr. Farman.
04:45Oh, what's on her?
04:51If you want me to look at her, you'll have to help me catch her.
04:53All right, you are.
04:55Come here.
04:56Come here at once.
04:57Oh, heavens.
04:59Yeah.
05:00Lane.
05:01That's not lame.
05:02I could have sworn her I saw this morning with a dodgy leg.
05:05James?
05:06Tristan?
05:07Mr. Farman.
05:09Mrs. Hilda, this is not a laughing matter.
05:11I need James and Tristan to come out and help me here pronto.
05:18St Thomas' Hospital, London.
05:21Sounds right.
05:22Posh, that, doesn't it?
05:23That's why Florence Nightingale set up the first training school for nurses.
05:26Did you hear that, Dad?
05:28Aye.
05:29Florence Nightingale?
05:31Ain't that something, eh?
05:33Oh, aye.
05:34Ignore him.
05:35But we don't even know who Florence Nightingale is.
05:37Oh, of course I'm ruddy-do.
05:39It says here, your registration date.
05:42It's in three weeks' time.
05:45Three weeks?
05:47I could call up and see if I can defer.
05:50Oh, you can't do that?
05:51No.
05:52You haven't got a telephone.
05:53But you don't want to lose a place, Dad.
05:55Well, if it's leaving you in the lurch, I could ask.
05:58Maybe they'll keep my spot until next year.
06:00No, there's no telling they'll be willing to do that.
06:02No, it's all right.
06:03There's no need to fret.
06:04Gives us plenty of time to get you sorted, eh?
06:05Pass us that pad and pen.
06:07What for?
06:08A list.
06:09We'll write everything down and we'll cross it off as we go.
06:11That way we'll be sure not to miss anything.
06:19Get off.
06:20Get off.
06:23Mrs Stokes, there is no sign of lameness in this goat.
06:26Are you sure, Mr Farnham?
06:28Having finally concluded my examination,
06:31and bearing in mind her antics in the square,
06:32I'm quite sure.
06:35Eh, well, I'm sorry to have wasted your time.
06:38No time wasted.
06:40We're not a charity.
06:41See Mrs Hall about my consultation fee.
06:44Oh, come on.
06:44Thank you all for coming.
06:57To my little sister.
06:59Off to save lives in the big city.
07:01We'll miss you.
07:03And London, you're very lucky to have her.
07:05Yeah.
07:05Congratulations, Jenny.
07:07Well, they're not, thank you for it, mind.
07:09They're not the light down there.
07:12Miserable so-and-sos.
07:14Oh, like home from home, then.
07:17Have you ever been to London, Richard?
07:19Nope.
07:20Won't want to either.
07:21Especially now it's been bombed out.
07:23Thanks for that, Dad.
07:24Jenny will be all right.
07:25She'll make friends in no time.
07:27That was certainly my experience of basic training.
07:30Come right over with the lads,
07:31going out to the dance halls.
07:32There'll be no dance halls.
07:33Yes, there was a little place called the Blue Lagoon
07:36I used to frequent in my younger days.
07:38Would you mind?
07:39Mixed clientele, but something for everyone
07:41if you catch my drift.
07:42And there'll be no catching of any drifts.
07:44Dad, I've been to dances before.
07:46Not London dances, you haven't.
07:48Come on, Richard.
07:48You can't keep it locked up forever.
07:50I'll look forward to seeing you
07:51when your rose is leaving home.
07:54Jenny's not leaving home.
07:59What?
08:00Well, you're not, are you?
08:02You're going to nursing college
08:03and then you're coming back?
08:05I haven't given it much thought.
08:08Yes, you see, the fledgling
08:09spreads its wings and flies the nest
08:10and all you can do is hope
08:11it doesn't get plucked out of the air
08:13by some passing eagle.
08:14Or worse, come back like my brother.
08:16Ow!
08:16You've done a lovely job
08:17with this cake, Alan.
08:19Oh, thank you.
08:22When are you going to see little Mary?
08:24Wake on Sunday.
08:26Oh, I bet you can't wait.
08:27I can't.
08:28I'm really looking forward to seeing her.
08:30She'll have changed so much.
08:31This cake is nice.
08:34How long are you going for?
08:35None.
08:36Till the birthday cake runs out,
08:37I should imagine.
08:39What will you do without her, Siegfried?
08:43Carry on.
08:44As I always have.
08:45I'm very impressed with your riding.
09:10You say that like I wasn't clinging on
09:11for dear life the entire time.
09:12You're still coming to lunch tomorrow, aren't you?
09:16Absolutely.
09:17I love a croquet lunch.
09:18As long as you'll know Aunt Emma.
09:20What?
09:21Is she hopeless?
09:22It's what you call a dull player.
09:25Yeah, of course.
09:26Of course.
09:27No.
09:27No one's ever called me Aunt Emma.
09:29I rather thought not.
09:32So, does General Beauvoir know I'm coming
09:34as your, um, your paramour.
09:39Oh, is that what you are?
09:40Yes.
09:40Ah.
09:41Although I'm not entirely sure what one is, actually.
09:45I don't need my father to approve of my choice of paramour.
09:49It's been tried.
09:50Well, not with a vet, I suspect.
09:53Once he spends some time with you
09:55away from the stables, he'll be fine.
09:58Wait till he gets an eye full of me
09:59whacking the ball through the posts.
10:01Hoops.
10:03Oh, precisely.
10:06So, Jenny, is there much preparatory reading?
10:08They sent a list of books.
10:10And Mr Farnham could lend you some of his books.
10:13Could happen.
10:14Human anatomy is a bit different.
10:16Aye.
10:17Where will you be staying?
10:19I'll find out when I get there.
10:22What?
10:23Oh, you'll just knock on London's door
10:24and say, hello, I'm Jenny Alderson.
10:26Can I keep here for the night?
10:27I'm sure Jenny's thought about it.
10:28Oh, aye.
10:29Sounds like it.
10:30They sought the accommodation.
10:32At least I think they do.
10:34It'll be fine.
10:36Stop mithering and eat some more cake.
10:38We're worried about you.
10:39You don't need to be.
10:45Someone should go and check up on the horses.
10:47Excuse me.
10:48She's no idea what she's getting into.
11:00She imagines they'll just roll out the red carpet for her like she's Dick Blooming Whittington.
11:05Helen.
11:08I said to make a list.
11:10Have a look at the state of that.
11:13Welly's socks seem sensible so far.
11:16Yeah, we're helping her to start with.
11:17Keep reading.
11:19Knickers times three.
11:21Helen, I'm not sure she'll be reading this.
11:23Three.
11:23Three pairs.
11:25I don't know what you think she'll be wearing the other four days of the week.
11:28Maybe she plans on turning them inside out.
11:32Don't.
11:34Sorry.
11:38Helen, she'll work it out.
11:42Are you all right?
11:44It's not me we need to be worried about.
11:47It's her.
11:50She's not ready.
11:52Not one bit of it.
11:53What are you doing?
12:18You cancid an omelet.
12:19Good use of stale bread.
12:20I was about to ask Mrs. Hall for some proper lunch before I go out.
12:24Man cannot survive on cucumber sandwiches alone.
12:26Mrs. Hall is outside learning the rules of croquet for your benefit.
12:30Not really.
12:31You don't need to bother her every time you want anything.
12:33She's not at our beck and call.
12:34We could all just share the load a little more.
12:37As long as you don't expect me to eat that.
12:39How do you like your eggs, sir?
12:40Oh, incinerated.
12:41I'm quite capable of preparing a meal.
12:44I was in the army.
12:45They used to teach you to look after yourself once upon a time.
12:47Oh, it's burning.
12:48What if now it's burning?
12:50Because you distracted me.
12:51You sure you don't want me to ask Mrs. Hall?
12:53I'm perfectly fine.
13:07Mrs. Hall?
13:10Let's give this croquet business a quick go, shall we?
13:12Oh, I got you this from the library, no?
13:20Nice.
13:24Oh, well, then, have a whirl.
13:27What?
13:40What?
13:40All ready?
14:03You've packed everything.
14:04All done.
14:05I did the list like you said.
14:07You can check it.
14:08Everything's crossed off.
14:09I didn't want you worrying.
14:14Writing it all down really helped.
14:16That's what I'm here for.
14:17The only thing was the towels.
14:18I wasn't sure which to take.
14:20Oh, I'll sort that out.
14:22Have you been down the stables?
14:24Er, no, not yet.
14:26Well, I'd better go, then.
14:27All right, Sam.
14:38Strike.
14:39What?
14:40You went to swing the ball and you tapped it.
14:42Well, I didn't mean to.
14:43It doesn't matter whether you're meant to or not.
14:44It says here that's a strike.
14:46I was only getting into position.
14:47Rules are rules.
14:49How many people are you expecting at this do, then?
14:55I'm not sure.
14:57With any luck, I'll just fade into the background.
15:00Really?
15:01That's the plan.
15:03Head down and try and make it out of there with my dignity intact.
15:07Well, they're no better than you.
15:09Much as this practice has helped, Mrs. H, I can assure you they are a lot better than me.
15:13I'm saying they might have a big house and servants and the like, but they're not better people.
15:19Yeah, I know that.
15:25What was that?
15:28Kristen?
15:29Sorry, Mr. Farner.
15:30We were a bit carried away with this croquet practice.
15:33Oh, well, not to worry.
15:36These things happen.
15:37Shall I clear that out for you?
15:38No, no, I'll do it.
15:40No, there's no trouble.
15:41I'll go and get the dustpan and brush.
15:48Some way it's not right.
15:50What do you mean?
15:51Well, he hardly batted an eyelid.
15:55Enjoy it while it lasts, I say.
15:58Have another go.
16:02Okay.
16:05Yes!
16:05What did I tell you?
16:07You just have to be your charming self.
16:14Jenny's almost ready, I see.
16:16What about you?
16:19What about me?
16:20Now, sometimes, our greatest qualities can be our greatest challenges.
16:29Go on.
16:30It's natural you don't want to lose her.
16:32He'd been a mum to Jenny for most of her life.
16:35It'll be a big wrench.
16:40When I left home, my ma wasn't at all pleased.
16:42You're not about to compare me to your mother?
16:44It was hard for her.
16:45It was hard for her, though.
16:47It was hard for me, too.
16:49I want Jenny to go, but only if she's ready.
16:54No one's ever ready.
16:55No one's ever ready, are they?
16:57I wasn't.
16:59But it led to the greatest adventure of my life.
17:03I met you.
17:12Dolls.
17:13Dolls.
17:14Dolls.
17:19Oh.
17:19Oh.
17:49It were my mam's. Her mam's before that and her mam's before that. Each patch represents
17:59a different moment in our lives.
18:01What's this one?
18:03Mam and dad's wedding.
18:06Me grandma sewed that one on.
18:10Aww.
18:11And then me mam did the last one for our Jenny Wren.
18:15There.
18:17James, I need you in the stable. Hurry up, lad.
18:32That were Mrs Stokes on the telephone. Her hilda's still lame. She wants you to go and have
18:37a look at her.
18:41She really did seem quite insistent.
18:43Of course.
18:44Right, well, I'll get on with the lunch.
18:47Oh, no need. I've eaten.
18:48You've eaten?
18:49Yes.
18:50What have you eaten?
18:51Sardines.
18:52Wait, you don't want to cook lunch?
18:53No, I don't want to trouble you.
18:56Mr Farnon, is everything all right?
18:59Yes.
19:01You sure?
19:02Without question.
19:04Right you are.
19:06Oh, Tris, you look very smart.
19:09When are you going to this croquet luncheon?
19:11Soon.
19:12Well, be sure to take the Beauvoir's bill with you.
19:15Sorry?
19:16For treating Charlotte's horse.
19:18You want me to go there with the bill?
19:19He's got it.
19:20No, I can't do that.
19:21Yes, you can.
19:22I'm their guest.
19:23If you must fraternise with the clientele, let it not be at the expense of the business.
19:29Then you're the model of professionalism, I suppose.
19:33I take it you won't want lunch either, if you're off out.
19:38Au contraire, Mrs Hall.
19:40I need to keep up my strength for today.
19:42Good.
19:43Glad someone still needs me services.
19:46Is it something serious?
19:52She does feel a bit warm.
19:56Is it pneumonia?
20:05Lungs sound fine, so it's not pneumonia.
20:08Good girl.
20:10Her udder is hot and swollen.
20:15It could be because the fool stopped feeding, so it could be mastitis.
20:20We need to draw the udder to check.
20:24Aye, there are clots.
20:30She has mastitis.
20:32We need to strip out the milk.
20:35Fetch me some warm water, please.
20:37Aye.
20:38She's been in a lot of pain, won't she?
20:40I'm afraid so.
20:41Oh, poor love.
20:44We should have caught that sooner, shouldn't we, eh?
20:47I'm sorry.
20:49I'm sorry.
20:54Thank you, Derek.
21:11Well, I could get used to this chauffeur business.
21:15Only problem, he wouldn't stop at the drovers.
21:18He was under strict instructions.
21:20Look at you.
21:22How did you defeat the Nazis?
21:24With dashing good looks.
21:25Do you think the same will work on your father?
21:28Any strategy that works is fine.
21:30How about running fast in the opposite direction?
21:32Not that one.
21:33Yes, that would have been the best of Mrs. Beverly.
21:37Undeniably.
21:38Captain Farnan.
21:40Somewhat overdressed for the stables, aren't you?
21:42He's not here to see Philbrick.
21:44You know very well that Tristan is my guest.
21:48Lord Neville Gladwyn.
21:50Owns everything from Rook Hill down to the river.
21:53Captain Tristan Farnan.
21:55Vet.
21:56Vet.
21:57Vet is it.
21:58Spend all the time with your arm up a cow's backside, I shouldn't wonder.
22:02Remind me not to shake hands with you.
22:05I must say I'm looking forward to playing some croquet.
22:08Don't worry.
22:09I'm no Aunt Edna.
22:10Emma.
22:11Emma.
22:12Croquet?
22:13I hardly think so.
22:14Not with these ground conditions.
22:17Not to worry.
22:19It gives you boys a chance to get to know one another better.
22:26Mrs. Stokes?
22:48Hello?
22:49Hello?
22:50God reck-
22:52for God's sake.
22:55Oh, God.
23:02This way, Mr Varnham.
23:10What's she doing now, then?
23:12She's doing well, but she'll be tender.
23:15A pituitary injection will help let the milk go down.
23:18She'll be easier to strip out.
23:20Fall will get weak if she don't feed.
23:22I just said she'll be tender. It's not fair.
23:24Well, technically, you can't force the fall on her.
23:28It's hard work being a mam, isn't it, eh, girl?
23:33But you've got to try.
23:35Leave him when it hurts.
23:37Especially when it hurts.
23:40I think we may be getting somewhere.
23:42What happened?
23:43Oh, nothing, love. Just a bit of a to-do with a piping, that's all.
23:47James is helping her out.
23:49Let's get the fall on the other teat.
23:51It won't be as painful.
23:52All right, well.
24:01All right, girl.
24:02Come on, that's it.
24:05That's it.
24:11Come on, girl.
24:12Come on.
24:13That's it.
24:15That's it.
24:16Easy.
24:18Easy.
24:18Can I try?
24:29It's all right.
24:32She's your little girl, don't you see?
24:35You don't want her going hungry and being sad, do you?
24:38You want her big and strong.
24:40That's it.
24:56You take care of her.
24:58Good girl.
24:59Good girl.
25:00We've got to let her go.
25:22And all of her.
25:26And all we do.
25:38I suppose we may slowly see things return to normality now.
25:43God knows we've had to make do on men long enough.
25:45My great hope is that we get the opera back.
25:50Losing the Royal Opera House during wartime was an absolute tragedy.
25:54I think most Londoners needed a dance hall more than they needed some warbling Italians,
25:58Daddy.
25:59One of the great institutions of our nation, the ROH.
26:04Absolutely.
26:04I mean, what have we been fighting for if not, um...
26:10Handel.
26:14A German.
26:16Out for billiards.
26:18General.
26:18Why don't you give Tristan a game?
26:20No, no.
26:21No, no.
26:21Neville's been waiting a while, so...
26:23No, nonsense.
26:24Be my guest.
26:25Show us what you're made of.
26:28Set them up.
26:31Okay.
26:40Where's the rest of the balls?
26:47You don't have the first idea how to play, do you?
26:50He already thinks I'm a peasant.
26:52I have no intention of confirming it beyond all doubt.
26:57There's three balls.
26:58Two white cue balls.
27:00One with a black spot on it.
27:01The red goes on that spot.
27:03Right.
27:05Let's give them a good pasting, shall we?
27:06Okay.
27:10I'm sorry, Mrs. Stokes.
27:12I've done some unusual things in my time as a vet, but...
27:15Turn the more midi.
27:16Then, if I stay in this position a moment longer, I'll never get up again.
27:20Look.
27:21There's the...
27:22She is curry in my throat, my tooth.
27:27So she is.
27:37Shake a leg.
27:38We shall be here all day.
27:40Oh, damn.
27:52But that's points to you.
27:54How much of the General's whiskey have you had, Father?
27:58So, I imagine you never had much choice other than to go into the family business.
28:05No, I enjoy spending time with wild, untamed creatures, but it's not just about my brother.
28:10I like the animals, too.
28:20You're bad luck.
28:21I suppose it's about what you're born to, isn't it?
28:30Money's not the be-all and end-all, Father.
28:33All I'm saying is, it takes a certain disposition.
28:38Great shot.
28:41Red's gone down twice from the spot, goes to the middle.
28:44Well...
28:44Anyone would think you didn't know the game.
28:50Well, I've played plenty of bar billiards, but no one seems to have made that deliberately
28:54baffling.
28:55Well, why on earth didn't you say so, Mayor?
28:58I'm sorry, General.
29:00I don't know much about croquet or opera or where the Red Bull's supposed to go.
29:04But I do know a lot about sticking my hand up a cow's backside.
29:10The fee, sir.
29:12For saving Charlotte's horse.
29:14Little girl.
29:25Little girl.
29:27I've been looking for you.
29:30I've just been here.
29:33Willing this little lady better.
29:35She looks brighter than before.
29:37Hmm.
29:38Here's open.
29:39Helen.
29:44Yes?
29:46I can't do it.
29:48I can't go.
29:50Jenny, I'm not a nurse.
29:52I'm not a city girl.
29:54This is my home.
29:56I can't leave.
30:01You daft thing.
30:09I don't believe it.
30:19You don't believe what?
30:20Poor Hilda has Shelley hoof.
30:22Shelley what?
30:24Hoof.
30:25The horn has started to come away from the hoof.
30:27It's formed a cavity which is filled with soil and dung.
30:30Why?
30:33Mrs. Stokes, I apologise.
30:34Well, that's all well and good, Mr. Farnham, but I reckon it's not me.
30:38You should be apologising to him.
30:43Hilda.
30:44I'm sorry for not seeing this soon.
30:48Do you accept his apology, Elder Love?
30:51Well, to be fair on Mr. Farnham, it was you playing silly beggars, pretending everything
30:55was alright when it clearly wasn't.
30:58Can't quarrel with that.
31:00Brancing around like a rat, silly young goat.
31:02She does accept your apology.
31:06It's already good.
31:08Goats sometimes behave like this, Mrs. Stokes, pretending they're not hurt in order to protect
31:13themselves.
31:14Aye, that's right.
31:17In my book, that's a ruddy foolish thing to do.
31:25Must have taught you well.
31:28Nice and sturdy.
31:30No gaps.
31:32Still been stood long after I've gone less.
31:34Hmm.
31:35You've James to thank for that.
31:37James did that?
31:40Picking and putting.
31:46Jenny says she's not going now.
31:48Because of me.
31:49Because she's scared.
31:51She's looking for a reason not to.
31:52When your mother passed, I just buried my head in its hand.
32:00Left you to bring up your sister, doing what I couldn't.
32:04I put far too much on your young shoulders.
32:07Far too much.
32:09They say it like Jenny was a burden.
32:11She wasn't.
32:13Far from it.
32:14She was the reason I got up every morning.
32:18The reason I were able to live again.
32:21You had plans and dreams of your own, though, didn't you?
32:24It's not what you wanted.
32:26And look at what I got instead, eh?
32:29James.
32:30Children.
32:31I grew up closer to Jenny than any sister could have.
32:34Aye.
32:35But still.
32:37I appreciate it.
32:48And James definitely did this wall, did he?
32:51Mm-hmm.
32:53Do you want to do the rest of them?
32:59You went wrong bloody job.
33:04All right, Jenny Wren.
33:09Oh, these do look better.
33:11You haven't called me that in years.
33:13No.
33:14I like it.
33:16Reminds me of...
33:18You can say it.
33:22Mum.
33:24That's what she always used to call me.
33:29You know what she'd say?
33:31Be brave.
33:33My Jenny Wren.
33:35That she would.
33:37You can leave this place, but it'll always run through your veins.
33:41But I'd miss you all.
33:43So much.
33:45Yes, but you're not to worry about this place.
33:47Or Dad, or the children.
33:49And that's for being worried about London.
33:50Well, I think London's the one that should be worried.
33:54I don't know anything about it.
33:56I don't know where anything is.
33:58I don't know anyone.
33:59It's what adventures are for, isn't it?
34:01Discovering all them things.
34:02You never got your adventure.
34:09I know you're not my mum.
34:12Not really.
34:12But you are.
34:16You are.
34:21What else are Wren's meant to do, eh?
34:22But flourish and fly.
34:24What about Dad?
34:28He's pleased for you.
34:30Deep down.
34:31Where it matters.
34:32Very deep down.
34:34I know he is.
34:35He came up with a name for her.
34:39Florence.
34:41After Florence Nightingale.
34:42It's perfect.
34:44Took us long enough.
34:45You suddenly made an impression.
35:13I'm so sorry.
35:15I don't know why I thought I could swing this.
35:17I belong in the stables, not in there.
35:18You belong right here with me.
35:20I made a fool of myself.
35:22You did.
35:24It was wonderful.
35:25I do know about putting my hand at the cow's backside.
35:30Perhaps not my finest repartee.
35:32I think we had a lucky escape.
35:36Imagine the damage you could have done with a croquet mallet.
35:38I practiced.
35:39You didn't.
35:40I bloody practiced.
35:40That's so sweet.
35:41I was ready to lie convincingly about croquet.
35:45Okay, Aunt Edna.
35:49Captain Farnham.
35:54Sir.
35:54I have your fee.
36:00I'm just waiting for the car to come round.
36:03Oh, I don't want you to misunderstand me, Farnham.
36:07Captain.
36:08There's no one I'd trust more with my horses.
36:11He trusts you with his horses.
36:13Praise indeed.
36:13I lost her once before, I'm sure she told you, to the Auxiliary Territorial Service in Italy.
36:24I wasn't lost.
36:25You could have been.
36:28I wanted the world for her once.
36:31Now, I just want her home.
36:33And I want her happy.
36:37I like seeing her happy.
36:39Next time, you teach me bar billiards.
36:52That's it.
36:53Play nicely, Jimmy.
36:55Well, sir.
36:57Sewing me patch.
37:00Oh, that's lovely.
37:02It's Candy, Joan and the foal.
37:05I'm not sure it's as good as me mum's, to be honest.
37:09They're two beautiful girls.
37:11Are you seeing things?
37:12Where am I?
37:14It's just a wren.
37:17You're the son.
37:34Oh, hey-o.
37:35What have you got there?
37:36For the children?
37:37But might as well have them now.
37:39No point me hanging on to them.
37:41Isn't that kind?
37:43Excuse me, what'd you say to your Auntie Jenny?
37:46Ta.
37:47You're very welcome.
37:48They're for both of you, though.
37:50To share.
37:54Here you are, Rosie.
37:56Aw, thank you.
37:58Aw, good boy.
37:59Rosie's gonna love those.
38:01Well, I've got something for you and all.
38:05Me?
38:06Don't know if we can quite call it a present.
38:08Or a question.
38:10Right.
38:12How about you come with me?
38:13To London?
38:15What?
38:15Just to settle me in.
38:17You don't need me.
38:19I want you to come.
38:21It can be our adventure together.
38:22It's all right about me, look.
38:33He suggested it to me.
38:34London, eh?
38:47Yeah.
38:49For a few weeks.
38:51What did you say?
38:52I told her I couldn't go.
38:54I'm leaving you on your own with the children.
39:00You should go.
39:03I mean it.
39:04It'd be good for you both.
39:08Well, what will you do?
39:10I'll look after myself well enough.
39:11Don't you worry about that.
39:14And the children?
39:17One each.
39:20Jimmy.
39:21Rosie.
39:22You just promise me one thing.
39:26Aye.
39:26On this wee trip,
39:28you're not going to fall in love
39:30with some handsome London hero soldier
39:31and run away with him, are you?
39:33I hadn't thought about that.
39:35But now you mentioned it.
39:36Careful.
39:36No, stop it.
39:37Hey, careful.
39:38Stop it.
39:38Stop it.
39:38I'm kidding.
39:39I'm kidding.
39:41Oh, all right.
39:42All right.
39:43Promise I won't go running off with anyone.
39:44What's all this?
39:54I'm sewing dresses for our Mary and little Rosie.
39:57Oh, lovely.
39:58I've been trying to thread this needle
40:01so long my eyes have gone funny.
40:03Give it to me.
40:04Your eyes are worse than mine.
40:09I see what it is.
40:10Eh, you're afraid.
40:12Oh, my egg.
40:13Sisters, please.
40:13I've just been dealing with Hilda.
40:17It's a rather curious case.
40:18The goat?
40:19Yes.
40:20It seems that she's relu...
40:26Hilda has Shelley hoof.
40:29It's a very painful condition.
40:32But she's reluctant to show it.
40:35Doesn't want to upset her keeper.
40:38So she keeps it in,
40:41which only makes the condition worse.
40:43Oh, nearly.
40:45Next time.
40:47Here's hoping.
40:48And I...
40:50sometimes think
40:52that's a...
40:54coping mechanism
40:56not entirely alien to the human condition.
41:00I see.
41:01Do you?
41:02A little bit.
41:05Not really.
41:10Hilda has Shelley hoof.
41:12Right.
41:13It can be very painful.
41:16Very painful indeed.
41:20Mr. Fannan,
41:21are you reluctant to admit
41:22you've been feeling a little bit afraid?
41:26When you go to Edwards,
41:28are you coming back?
41:31Because I'd rather just know.
41:32I'll only be gone
41:37for a few days.
41:41Right.
41:43Good, then.
41:47But am I doing this now?
41:49I'll be honest with you,
41:50miss it,
41:50so I can't see a bloody thing.
41:51chubby.
41:57No.
42:04Tony?
42:05Bye.
42:05Jenna?
42:09Jenny?
42:10All right.
42:13Stop.
42:13It's beautiful
42:19Over to you
42:26Me
42:28You're an Alderson girl, aren't you?
42:32It's time to show you a little patch of the world
42:34What?
42:40It's just
42:41I don't quite know what that is yet
42:44There's no rush
42:48I'll save it for when you're ready
42:51Hang on
42:52Let's not fold it away, though, eh?
42:56Let these two keep it warm for me
42:58Till I'm ready
43:00Let me know if you need help
43:10Will do
43:10What's this?
43:16Teleform
43:17Dad
43:18Really?
43:19I thought you said they were witchcraft
43:20Shh
43:20You can go up in that fish face
43:25I just
43:27I just
43:27I can't believe it
43:29Believe it
43:30Thank you
43:31Thank you
43:32This is going to make my life so much easier
43:34Not just for you
43:35For our Jenny here
43:37So she can telephone me from that there London every Sunday night
43:41Without fail
43:43Of course she did
43:44Of course she did
43:44Of course
43:45Thank you
43:46Thank you
43:48I'm happy to go up in that interview
