00:00So, Miranda's an important character?
00:08Oh, why yes. She's the beating heart of the play.
00:12If Miranda's stuck on a desert island, shouldn't her hair be a mess?
00:15Oh, you can't be afraid if you're the star.
00:18In Hollywood, I'd spend hours in hair and makeup.
00:21Hmm. Something's missing.
00:25I know.
00:30Face me? Like this?
00:33Mm-hmm. Hold still.
00:37And... uh-huh.
00:41Oh.
00:43Divine.
00:46Well, come on, then. Own the part.
00:51How came we assured of...
00:54Josephine, get down immediately.
00:57What is going on?
01:00Is that lipstick?
01:05Well, yes.
01:07She's Miranda in The Tempest.
01:09The star of the play.
01:11Josephine needs to stand out.
01:14Miranda would have no recourse for lipstick on a desert island.
01:18Miss Vernon, a word, please.
01:21Josephine, remove the lipstick, please.
01:23Josephine, remove the lipstick, please.
01:24Josephine, remove the lipstick, please.
01:34Josephine.
01:35Josephine.
01:36Language and character, not glamour.
01:39It was just a bit of fun.
01:41Can you blame me after your bombshell?
01:43What bombshell?
01:45Mallory Tower is going into a trust.
01:48Grandfather divided the estate equally.
01:52Your father got the money, mine the house.
01:55That's fair.
01:56Now, today's lesson was not appropriate.
02:01And if you would like to stay, I would happily pay for your teacher training.
02:08And if I refuse, I have to leave?
02:13If you would like to continue here, I will need to see a dramatic improvement.
02:26Gwendolyn, aren't you supposed to be revising?
02:30Um, yes, I am.
02:33My poor head.
02:34A break might help.
02:35Well, it's good timing.
02:36I need someone to pass me tools.
02:38My mother-in-law is visiting tomorrow and the carburetor is playing up.
02:41Oh, I'd love to help.
02:43Um, but my uniform.
02:44Matron really would not want me getting oil on it.
02:46Ah!
02:47I am just the thing.
02:52You're not serious?
02:54No, I can't possibly wear that.
02:56Think of it as a lesson in life.
02:58You never know.
02:59You might actually enjoy it.
03:04Oh, come on.
03:06Be not have feared.
03:08The isle is full of noises, sounds and sweet airs that give delight.
03:15And hurt not.
03:20Um, Miss Vernon, is that Caliban?
03:23Mm-hmm.
03:27Do you think she's all right?
03:29Of course not.
03:30She's worried you might be asked to leave.
03:32I like Miss Vernon.
03:33She's so much fun.
03:36Miss Grayling's right though.
03:37She's not a good teacher.
03:41Then let's help her learn.
03:43We could perform the tempest for Miss Grayling.
03:45No.
03:47We need something special.
03:51Susan.
03:52What about your play that you wrote for the history project about Henry VIII's visit?
03:57Miss Grayling loves history and Miss Vernon could direct.
04:00And it's about the school.
04:01Miss Grayling would love that.
04:06Isn't the bell the very best sound?
04:12It means you can go, girls.
04:14Miss Vernon, I've written a short play about when Henry VIII came to visit Manory Towers.
04:19We thought you could direct it.
04:22I won't have the time.
04:24Apparently I need to concentrate on lessons.
04:27This would be a lesson.
04:30Bringing Mallory Towers history alive through drama.
04:33We could perform it for Miss Grayling.
04:34Imagine how impressed she'd be.
04:37You're right.
04:39My cousin would be impressed.
04:41To dazzle Miss Grayling, we need to do something truly special.
04:48I know.
04:49We'll make a film.
04:50Uh, we need a camera.
04:53Well, I wasn't in the movies for nothing.
04:59Girls, put your books away.
05:03To the storeroom we go.
05:05Miss Vannon, the storeroom's that way.
05:06I knew that.
05:07Tell the storeroom.
05:08Gwen, hop to it.
05:09Haven't got all day.
05:10I'm coming.
05:11Ah!
05:12Ah!
05:13Oh!
05:14Oh!
05:15No, not that one.
05:16The mole wrench.
05:17Oh, um...
05:19That's a screwdriver.
05:20Right, well, how am I meant to know that?
05:21Just hold it, until I need it.
05:22Ron, I don't suppose you're free, are you?
05:23We could use a hand.
05:24As a side, I'm sorry.
05:27No, not so that.
05:28Ah, yeah, no, no.
05:29I'm blanking.
05:30The mole wrench.
05:31Oh, um...
05:32That's a screwdriver.
05:39Right, well, how am I meant to know that?
05:42Just hold it until I need it.
05:45Ron, I don't suppose you're free, are you?
05:48We could use a hand.
05:49There's a sight I didn't expect to see.
05:51I didn't have much choice.
05:53If it suits you.
05:55Carboretta, is it?
05:56Yeah, I can stick around.
05:58Thank goodness.
05:59Gwen, thank you.
06:00But you can leave now.
06:01No, no, um, I'll stay.
06:03Never leave a job half done.
06:05Daddy taught me that.
06:06Good for you.
06:09Mole wrench.
06:11Pretty sure you'll need that next.
06:26Ready, set, action.
06:28Flifty, ready for my clothes up?
06:46Props in.
06:48Brandish those swords, girls.
06:50Everyone, crack on.
06:51We have to get this right.
06:52Um, there's a problem.
06:57The chess set that King Henry gives to Lord Mallory.
07:00We can't not have it.
07:02We'll have to use a different set.
07:04Miss Grayling won't let us have the real one.
07:06We are aiming for perfection, girls.
07:09You're right.
07:10I'll get it.
07:11I can be very persuasive.
07:13Joe?
07:14Joe!
07:15Sword!
07:16Now!
07:17The moment of truth.
07:18Watch this.
07:28Well, it's not the, um...
07:31Carboretto?
07:34What about the fuel line?
07:35Could that be blocked?
07:36The same thing happened to Daddy.
07:37He bored on about the carboretto too.
07:39Gwendolyn Mary Lacey.
07:41What on earth are you wearing?
07:43I'm helping Mr. Parker fix his car.
07:46That seems unlikely.
07:47Telephone call, Mr. Parker.
07:49It's the museum.
07:49They need to know numbers for the first year trip.
07:54I won't be long, you two.
07:57So, just us then?
08:03The fuel line.
08:07Maybe it is that.
08:09That's what I thought too.
08:12Show me then.
08:13You clearly know a bit.
08:14Oh, well, I mean, it was a long time ago and Daddy's car is far superior, so...
08:20Easy fix, if you're right.
08:22Should we have a go?
08:24I'm game if you are.
08:25I just need to get down to this bed.
08:37That's the one.
08:43Oh, Miss Groening, do you have a moment?
08:45I need to ask you a favour.
08:46I'm sorry, Jo, I'm...
08:46What are you wearing?
08:47Just something dramatic for class, but it's really important.
08:50I'm horribly late for a meeting.
08:51Miss Groening...
08:52You'll have to wait.
08:55You'll have to wait.
09:18Ooh!
09:23Looks great.
09:25Now we put it back
09:35Go on then, do you really think I should only wait to know if it's worked
09:51Try again give it a bit on the accelerator
09:55Oh my goodness, Ron, I can't believe it
10:00Mr. Parker will keel over in shock
10:02I've got a hair
10:07Joe, we're ready
10:09Hollywood, here we come
10:11What's next?
10:17Ha! Ha!
10:19Ha!
10:21Thank you
10:23What's next?
10:30I know
10:32Why doesn't Lord Mallory execute the abbot?
10:36What, me?
10:37Yes, I like it
10:39It's very visual, exactly what we need
10:42But it's not what I wrote
10:44There's no proof the abbot was headed
10:46Then there's no proof that he wasn't either
10:48Everyone, places please
10:50And remember in the film we'll have captions, not sound
10:54But speak the lines, it'll help you perform
10:57And action
10:59Lord Mallory, bring me the abbot
11:02The lines that have him here
11:03Have mercy, please
11:05I beg you
11:06Wait, abbot
11:07King Henry, give me instruction
11:09If you are loyal
11:10You'll rid me of this heresy
11:16What?
11:17Not literally, Josephine put the sword down
11:19Okay
11:20You see, Susan, it makes your script saw
11:24Now, what's next?
11:26Um, the chess sets that King Henry gives to Lord Mallory
11:29I've got it here
11:31How did you convince Miss Graylin?
11:35Um, well, she didn't really object
11:41Lord Mallory being rewarded is our climax
11:45We need scale
11:47Because we film on the beach
11:49Oh, brilliant, Nancy
11:51The waves crashing
11:53The cliffs towering
11:55Um, don't we need permission?
11:58From a teacher
11:59June, darling
12:02That's me
12:03Everyone, to the beach
12:04To the beach
12:06Quick now
12:07The light's perfect
12:10Wait for us
12:12You're good at this, aren't you?
12:14Seriously, you should do it more
12:16Well, it's not really the sort of thing that ladies do
12:19Princess Elizabeth did it in the war
12:21She learned all sorts of style engines
12:24Well, it's good enough for a princess
12:29Thirsty work
12:32I'm parched
12:33Me too
12:35You know, the village shop does great lemonade
12:38Pardon?
12:43Are you...
12:44Are you asking me...
12:47Maybe
12:49Um, well, I'm meant to be revising
12:53But I am thirsty
12:54I'll have to get changed though
12:55Can you wait?
12:56I'll have to get changed
13:11I, King Henry
13:12Give you my own chess set
13:13Thank you, sire
13:14Thank you, sire
13:15Signé cum rege
13:19Farewell, my Lord Mallory
13:21And cut
13:23That was splendid
13:25Signé cum rege
13:27What is that anyway?
13:30My laden's a bit rusty
13:31It means sign of the king
13:33Oh
13:33It's about pledging allegiance
13:36So, Lord Mallory did
13:38And then King Henry awarded him with the chess sets
13:40Oh my, how lovely
13:43Do be careful
13:45It's fine, I'll help you collect them
13:47Here you go
13:47Hello
13:51There's night
13:56Is that all of them?
14:00Black King
14:03It's missing
14:04Black King
14:04Don't panic
14:05It's right here
14:07May I keep hold for a moment?
14:09I might use it
14:11For the film titles
14:13Just please don't lose it
14:14Promise
14:15That's it, everything's shot
14:17Yes, but
14:18We're still lacking something
14:20Remember, this is our finale
14:23I need a moment, let me think
14:24Let me think
14:27Oh
14:28I've got it
14:29A horse
14:31King Henry gallops along the beach
14:33Cause he's got the horse
14:34Oh, Clarissa
14:35What?
14:35I can't really fetch merry legs now
14:37And we can't be late for prep
14:39I could stay to shoot the finale
14:41All right
14:42Um, Josephine
14:43You stay here and help
14:44Between us, we'll get the last shot
14:46You others
14:47Run back for prep
14:49Oh, and if anyone asks
14:50Josephine's with me
14:51Thank you
14:53Hurry girls
14:54Don't be late
14:58Ready
14:59As we rehearsed
15:00So just pose
15:01A lovely pose
15:02Let's get that sword nice and high
15:03AHHHHH
15:04I'm so passionate
15:17Sorry I took so long
15:18I missed a bug
15:19Well, good news
15:21Car's fixed
15:23We tidied up
15:24Gwen was right
15:26Block fuel pipe
15:27Well, I never
15:28Gwen the mechanic
15:30Thanks, Ron
15:30I can handle things from here
15:32Uh, well
15:33It's fine to stay
15:36Why don't we give her a proper check
15:37Huh?
15:49I can't feel my arm
15:51It really hurts
15:53Well, sometimes
15:55We must suffer for our art
15:57That's it
15:58Keep still
15:59I need the whole of the sky in frame
16:03Miss Venom
16:08The chess set is floating away
16:10Oh my gosh
16:11We're cut off from the beach
16:12Josephine, be careful
16:21Steady now
16:24That's good
16:27Now bring it back quickly
16:31Don't panic
16:32Take my hand
16:33Here
16:33Josephine, come on
16:35I've got you
16:35I've got you
16:36All right
16:37Hold on, Josephine
16:38Josephine, look

16:49All right
16:50Look
16:51Drew's weaving
16:52The tide's come in
16:53The water's cut them off
16:54We have to get help
16:55Don't
16:56Move it
16:56We'll get help
16:58Help
16:59Do you think they understood?
17:02They hope so
17:02There's no way out
17:03Oh my gosh
17:04The water
17:04It's it now
17:05Let's move to the highest point
17:08Tire pressure's good
17:13Oil and water levels checked
17:15I think
17:16That's everything
17:19Great
17:20I'll go then
17:21Thanks again, Ron
17:28Mr Parker
17:30Why aren't you in prep?
17:32It's Miss Vernon
17:33And Joe
17:33No, I'm finished
17:34The sea's coming in
17:35They need help
17:36The tide to treacherous there
17:37Quick, down to the beach
17:39I'll drive
17:39I have to go fast
17:40My boat's in the next day
17:41If we need it
17:42Find Matron or Miss Grayling
17:43And tell them to alert the Coast Guard
17:46I'm sorry
17:47Miss Grayling, Miss Grayling
17:57Miss Grayling, Miss Grayling
17:59Should I come with you?
18:00Should I come with you?
18:00No
18:00Find Matron
18:01Tell her the Coast Guard
18:02Are on their way
18:03Miss Grayling, Miss Grayling
18:04Miss Grayling
18:05Miss Grayling, Miss Grayling
18:06Oh God
18:07It's alright
18:07His screening will be so cross
18:09All of their work on the field
18:10It's alright
18:11It's alright
18:13We'll hold a screening
18:14Miss Grayling as guest of honor
18:16We'll invite your parents
18:17Now tell them how fabulous you've been
18:19Miss Grayling
18:20I don't have a mother
18:21Oh, a father
18:25Well, then I'll invite him personally
18:29Son, look, our boat
18:32Help, help, help, help
18:36Look, Mr. Parker has arrived
18:44Here, take my hand
18:48Take it easy, Josephine
18:50Steady
18:51My hero
18:52Just watch the rocks
18:56Great, they're now on the boat
18:58Alright, let's go
19:00Oh good, they're on their way now
19:05We'd better get back too
19:14Josephine
19:17Oh, Josephine
19:18Oh, are you alright?
19:22Yes
19:24I think so
19:25Miss Grayling, please don't be cross
19:27Don't worry, Josephine
19:28It could have happened to anyone
19:29Oh, Ron, I can't thank you enough
19:31It's nothing
19:32I'm just glad I was there
19:33Well, no harm done
19:36Josephine could have drowned
19:38And so could I
19:39You were supposed to be in charge
19:41Mr. Parker, I will deal with this
19:42We will discuss this back at the school
20:01Signé cum rei
20:07Sign with the king
20:09Ah, Grandfather
20:16What a clever man you were
20:20Oh, how is Josephine?
20:22She's safe now
20:23No thanks to you
20:25I think you should come with me
20:28Oh, I can't win with you
20:30The girls were enthralled
20:32Just ask them
20:33A girl could have died
20:36Come in
20:36Josephine
20:38Josephine
20:40You're supposed to be resting in the sand
20:42Yes, but I have this
20:44I didn't give this to you
20:49Oh
20:51Well, you weren't in here
20:53and we needed it for the film
20:56So you just came into my study
20:58without permission and took it
21:00Did Miss Vernon tell you to fetch it?
21:05No, no
21:06It was my idea
21:08I wanted to help her
21:10She's
21:10She's my favourite teacher
21:13Oh, thank you dear
21:15Where's the black king?
21:17Oh, Miss Vernon
21:19Do you have it?
21:20Remember?
21:20It's in your pocket
21:23Oh, yes
21:24How silly of me
21:27I'd quite forgotten
21:35Please, Miss Grayning
21:36Don't blame Miss Vernon
21:37for what happened today
21:39She's such a good teacher
21:42Thank you, Josephine
21:44Now back to Matron in the Sand, please
21:49You see how the girls adore me?
21:51They adore kittens, too
21:53That doesn't mean they can teach
21:55Oh, Elizabeth
21:58It's not fair to condemn me
21:59I'm your cousin
22:01Your only living relative
22:03It doesn't matter who you are
22:04This is a school
22:06And I can't have you putting girls at risk
22:08You can't expect me to slum it
22:09at some grotty training college
22:11I won't do it
22:13I'd rather leave
22:14Well, given today
22:16I think that's best
22:18Fine
22:19Then I'll be gone within the hour
22:21I'll be gone
22:23I'll be gone
22:23I'll be gone
22:24I'll be gone
22:24I'll be gone
22:25I'll be gone
22:25I'll be gone
22:26I'll be gone
22:26Shh
22:27Shh
22:27Shh
22:28Shh
22:29Quick
22:29Shh
22:31Shh
22:31Shh
22:31Shh
22:32Shh
22:33Shh
22:33So unfair
22:35Before you go
22:36There's just one mistake
22:38These were written by your father
22:40To our grandfather
22:41I thought you might like them
22:43Some wages to tide you over
22:50Oh
22:51How generous of you
22:54After all
22:55You have so little
22:57Well, if you ever change your mind
23:03About training college
23:05You know where I am
23:06Safe travels
23:07Lily
23:09Gosh, she really is leaving
23:13Maybe it's for the best
23:14She is a terrible teacher
23:16Joy, where are you going?
23:20To Becca to stay, of course
23:21Miss Vernon
23:23Please don't go
23:26I can't believe Miss Graham's being so beastly
23:29Oh, dear Josephine
23:31You are sweet
23:31But if I learned anything in Hollywood
23:34It's how to make a graceful exit
23:37I can't not see you again
23:40We'll never say never
23:41Sometimes these things have a way of working out
23:45You
23:47Will never say never
24:01You
