00:00You
00:05Statistics show that Olympic medalists follow three rules when preparing for their competitions
00:13Get enough sleep
00:18Meticulous preparation and avoid distractions at all costs
00:30You
00:53For centuries Nobel Prize winners heads of state writers and scientists have been educated here
00:58Soon I could be one of them
01:04My future awaits behind these walls. I've been waiting for this day for years. Finally it is here
01:16Hey, hi
01:20This is Jude ready. Hi
01:28Yes
01:34I
01:36I
01:38I
01:40I
01:42I
01:44I hope I don't fudge this up.
01:50As if.
01:51You could puke in Professor Muller's bin and he'd still beg you to come.
01:54Didn't your mum have a class with him?
01:56Apparently you do actually have to put in some work to earn your place.
01:59Yeah, won't be easy.
02:01Let's go.
02:05Prepared?
02:07Yeah.
02:08We'll go in, get our offers, and then we're done.
02:11Easy as that.
02:14For those I haven't met yet, I am Jude.
02:22I'm a second year in St. Hilda's College here at Oxford,
02:25and I'll accompany you through the entire application process.
02:27In the first interview, all the professors want to test your critical thinking
02:31and see how well you can develop a position on a topic.
02:34In the second one, they want to see how you work under stress and if you crumble.
02:37Then, in the third and final interview, it's all about you
02:40to see if you really fit in here at Oxford.
02:42Out of all three, this is the big one.
02:45The first round of interviews starts in 45 minutes.
02:48That means you have plenty of time to go through your notes,
02:50maybe have a bite to eat.
02:51You're nervous, but you've made it this far.
02:53That means Oxford wants you.
02:55The only thing you must make sure to do is stay out your own way.
02:59I'll call your name.
02:59All good?
03:00All good.
03:24Ruby Bell, St. Elders.
03:54Good luck.
04:24Hey, no need for nerves, you'll be fine.
04:36Were you not nervous?
04:38Nervous?
04:39About ten times more than you.
04:41And they accepted me anyway.
04:43I'll see you later.
05:10Miss Bell, so glad you accepted our invitation.
05:12Thank you, it's my pleasure.
05:14Super, then let's carry on.
05:16For a couple of years now, the New York Times has published an opinion piece, which claimed
05:21that the British monarchy was a wasteful anachronism.
05:26Can our system exist in its duality?
05:28Can the monarchy and parliamentary democracy continue side by side?
05:32Or do you think we should become a republic?
05:35I believe the question can be approached from either side.
05:38On the one hand, one could argue that the monarchy offers stability, at least symbolically.
05:43On the other hand, the amount of money spent financing this individual institution must be called into question.
05:48And bearing in mind that other countries worldwide are clearly striving without it.
05:53Please do carry on.
05:55The market is based on speculation, on the fact that the future is not very reliable as we know.
06:01We wish it were.
06:02So profit is generated in the here and now.
06:04And a business with a successful model makes use of this to improve tunnel.
06:08Thank you, Mr. Beaufort.
06:10The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
06:12I remember your father was top of his class at Balliol.
06:16He was likely to head of everyone with his knowledge and ambition.
06:20How'd it go? You say first.
06:27Uh, I think it went pretty well.
06:29It was amazing having so many things to discuss.
06:31I mean, Plato came up and Moliere.
06:33At least they didn't give you mean stares.
06:34The professor in my interview had such a bushy monobrow that he spent the whole time looking like an angry Mr. Beau.
06:39I just couldn't stop looking at it.
06:41He must have been aware.
06:42No!
06:43How did the first round go? All good?
06:45Good, yeah.
06:46I'd say you could both benefit from a little downtime.
06:49Tonight, eh? Oxford style?
06:51Yeah.
07:02I present to you the world famous Turf Tavern.
07:05A pub frequented among others by the lovely Liz, Oscar and the Iron Lady who became the UK's Prime Minister.
07:13There's some seats over there.
07:20Come on!
07:28Who do we have here?
07:29Looks like they're getting on well.
07:38And here it is.
07:40Speciality of the house and an absolute must for every Oxford visitor.
07:43Thanks.
07:45Cross keys.
07:47I got the same after today.
07:48Someone suggested I drank water instead.
07:51Here, try this one.
07:52Whiskey.
07:53It's 18 years old.
07:57What's up?
07:59Sorry.
08:00Sorry.
08:08Here's something I've heard.
08:09The barkeepers are made to agree not to share anything they see when they start working here.
08:13Is that for real?
08:16First time I tried it, that's exactly the same face I made.
08:18And at the end of the evening, I ran back to campus singing, falling over and all half-naked.
08:22Okay, I'll skip that experience if that's possible.
08:24And we'll save it for when your student had full time.
08:27Cheers.
08:28Oh my God!
08:30Inc.
08:31Oh my God!
08:32I'm going to get some fresh air.
09:01Can I have my bag?
09:10Al.
09:11Hey, man.
09:12You've been too obvious.
09:18Look who's talking.
09:31Are you okay?
09:43I hope that's a rhetorical question.
09:50Are you nervous about the interviews?
09:56It doesn't matter about the interview result.
09:59There's no way I can go to Oxford now.
10:03What do you mean?
10:07You've beaten me this year for top marks in our class twice already.
10:15If you need something for your period...
10:16I don't have a period at the moment.
10:29Is it...
10:30I know, it's crazy to think about.
10:36I've never been in love with anyone like I am with him.
10:42With the baby too.
10:45Got to love hormones.
10:48There's great programs for mothers at Oxford.
10:50I read about them when I was finding out about scholarships.
10:55Jacinda Arden became a mother while she was running a whole country.
11:03I know we don't know each other.
11:06But I saw you at school all the time.
11:08How you persevered whilst everything was going on.
11:13Lydia, if there is anybody I know who can do it, it's you.
11:30It's becoming clear why my brother can't get over you.
11:34You make it seem like everything is possible.
11:37No matter what a shitty illusion that is.
11:41What did he say to you?
11:45Tell me it's not obvious he's suffering.
11:50He was the one that left me.
11:52Sometimes the greatest testament to love is to let someone go.
11:56You're scared, cause I aim to.
12:02This fear in my head is being there for too long.
12:11You call me, cause I aim to.
12:20So cover your toes.
12:23You call me cause I am so
12:31So cover your toes
12:35With a jacket and your bones
12:37With a blanket out
12:39I won't try it
12:43I'm just trying to be brave
12:47Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
12:51I'm just trying to be brave
12:55Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
12:59There's somebody who ordered this place
13:04I spent down the middle
13:07I'll be coming back
13:21My Olympic score after one day in Oxford
13:41Sleep zero
13:43Distraction ten
13:44Great score, Ruby Bell
13:46You're perfect
13:52There's nothing to worry about
13:53You'll be superb
13:54How many people are in this room?
14:15If we take direct perception as a discussion starting point
14:19As in Gibson's model
14:20I would say that I perceive two entities in the room other than myself
14:24And so
14:26The answer I would like to give is three
14:29The error is normal
14:32How many people are in this room?
14:35Try again
14:35Hey
14:52You okay?
14:56You okay?
14:58It seemed like you weren't okay
15:00It's all good
15:02I just wasn't in the mood to party
15:04It's just all the stress
15:05I'll be so relieved when it's all over
15:08You know when we can pick up where we left off
15:10And back at home
15:12And enjoy this last year of freedom
15:14I guess we don't know how lucky we are at Maxson Hall
15:17We're all just working our ourselves to get here
15:20For what?
15:21Just sit around for more
15:22And learn
15:23And provide
15:24More pain
15:26Just to see the next day
15:28What did you say?
15:35I was talking about being back home
15:37Where everything's normal
15:38At least for another year
15:39What?
15:43Does change always have to be something bad?
15:48Probably depends on the change, I guess
15:58How did the interview go today?
16:10I think I can safely say I blew it
16:12I shouldn't have got so drunk yesterday
16:15Did you know that freesia symbolized trust?
16:21You know that I
16:26I thought with Keshe I'd do that
16:28That whole backing off then
16:30He would have enough headspace to make his mind up
16:32And decide if he wanted it
16:33Instead he's trying to conform to the views of everyone else
16:37And especially his parents
16:39Messing with Camille
16:40I don't understand that
16:41It's as if he has no idea how to treat others
16:43Let alone himself
16:43And
16:46And so all I can think is that
16:49I just should never have let him go
16:50For fuck's sake
16:54I just shouldn't have let him go
16:55But I suppose you had no choice
16:59Yeah, it's a simple fact
17:01It's fight for something or give up
17:04You always have a choice
17:06I just don't get why people are so scared shitless
17:09Of being their true selves
17:10I'm going to hide in the last row and sleep off my hangover
17:40Sorry, were you going to sit in?
17:50No, it's fine
17:51Okay
18:06Welcome along to the students' question and answer session
18:09I got some of my classmates to come here
18:11By lying to them about there being snacks and drinks involved
18:13Most of them are now feeling incredibly hungry
18:15And terribly betrayed
18:16But I hope they will still answer some of your questions
18:19Let's go
18:20How strenuous is the coursework here, really?
18:25Do you still have time for a personal life?
18:27Neela?
18:27Well, I would say that compared to other unis
18:30It's certainly more intensive
18:31So yeah, there's still time for a personal life
18:33Don't worry
18:34But that bit's up to you
18:35Any more questions?
18:39Do you have a lot of contact with the students in the other colleges in Oxford?
18:43Or is the day-to-day routine very separate?
18:45I just want to know
18:46If I have to say goodbye to the bestest friend I could hope to meet
18:48It's true
18:49The colleges are usually quite independent
18:51So if you've got two students
18:53But one is at Balliol, for example
18:54And the other one is here at St Hilda's studying
18:57They might not interact that often
18:59Sure
19:00Balliol's Oxford Elite College
19:01Yeah
19:02That's an example of what someone from Balliol would say
19:04Many thanks
19:05Anybody want to follow that?
19:06What's your average score?
19:09So what?
19:09I'm just asking to make sure you're competent
19:11To prepare us to study here at Oxford before I sign up
19:13Let's hear from applicants better informed
19:16They're the questions I want to hear
19:19Instead of wasting time with your unqualified comments
19:21And unnecessary contributions
19:22What's your problem?
19:23I just think how scary it is
19:24How little time it's taken for you to sound like him
19:26Like who?
19:27Your father
19:27Okay, would you two like to
19:32Just keep it shut, you clown
19:33Leave him alone
19:34What?
19:35Am I ruining it all day you're having here?
19:36Why did you come here?
19:38Everyone knows you want to go to Oh So Fancy Balliol
19:40But don't make out you made the choice
19:41What?
19:42It's your strategy
19:43You have to push everyone to the edge to elevate yourself
19:46To pretend you're superior so that no one notices that you're a coward
19:48Who'd rather be a marionette for everybody
19:50Instead of standing up for what you really want
19:51Who'd rather be a dummy?
19:52To pretend you areacoass
19:53Who'd rather be aι« invest?
19:54Not anyone knows?
19:55Because if you haven't read it
19:56What do you want?
19:57I don't know
19:57Who would rather be a farmer
19:58You'd rather be a farmer
19:59He's a man
20:00Hazel
20:00He makes Book
20:13He's a man
20:14Who'd rather be a farmer
20:16You'd rather be a farmer
20:17And you'd rather be a farmer
20:19He'd rather be a farmer
20:21these last few weeks you've been ignoring me the best you can do it keep doing that forever
20:29and what if i say that you're right
20:34i'm living for others all the time i do unforgivable things lying and hiding what i
20:41really feel but you can't judge me for that because i do all of it for you i don't get you
20:46forgive it try just talking to me instead of all these stupid riddles you make me feel like i've
20:52lost it you've already made me lose it do you have any idea what it's doing to me how it feels to sit
20:56near to you to keep hearing your voice every day do you such a fantasist you can't just embarrass me
21:01in front of all of your friends blow me out and then say that i have no comprehension of it
21:04i can't do it ruby
21:17forgive me okay explain why you've come here why are you bothering with me because i
21:25what you don't know what you want from me or what you want from anybody because you know shit
21:30i know exactly what i want then put up a fight for it
21:44all my life nobody's been interested in what i want
21:48not true
21:51i'm more than interested in what you want
21:56you
22:15Did you actually start to believe someone like me would be interested in a car like you?
22:45Ruby, what's the matter?
23:08I apologize.
23:10What for?
23:12What is all this?
23:18Mum and Dad both said I'd changed according to them because of you.
23:25My Dad saw you as a danger to his plans.
23:27And he was right.
23:29He'd sworn he'd been able to destroy you, he told me.
23:31Made me promise to end it.
23:32I knew I couldn't protect you from him.
23:34You deserve to have someone protecting you.
23:36I should be able to.
23:37My family should welcome you with open arms, everyone else as well, but I can't offer you that.
23:40All I can offer are problems that I'm not even dealing with very well.
23:44So maybe you should have said that.
23:48It is not your job to decide what I can cope with.
23:54I just wanted to look after you.
23:56I'm not scared of him.
23:58What makes you say that?
24:13You don't know what he's capable of.
24:18I don't want...
24:22I won't be able to...
24:24James.
24:30Enough messing about.
24:32Enough lying.
24:34Do you promise?
24:36What are you doing?
24:52The thing couples do when they trust each other.
24:55Couples?
24:56Well, BFF isn't quite right.
24:58How can someone have such a high IQ and then use phrases like BFF, I wonder?
25:04Do you really think now is a good time to be rude again?
25:08I'll be anything you want.
25:10Friend.
25:11BFF.
25:12Anything.
25:13Anything.
25:14I won't tell you from a life I want to pay your love too.
25:18I've stomped on the floodlight and...
25:22If every heart comes down, don't wanna be flooding you now.
25:30I won't tell you from the right I want to see your eyelids sink.
25:35I've stomped on my own silence.
25:38If every heart comes down, I'm kind of afraid of you now.
25:43I don't want to beile.
26:01I want to take you, from the place you want to be Religion.
26:07So stomp on my own silence
26:10If every heart comes down
26:13Don't wanna be flooding you now
26:15Let me share you
26:36Let's hope together
26:37Let's hope together
27:07Is this James Beaufort the waterbed breaker sex instructor?
27:28Remember I told you it wasn't a waterbed
27:29I never want to leave
27:41Not today, not tomorrow
27:43Or a month more
27:44I thought you didn't want to go to Oxford
27:46I'm not talking about Oxford University
27:48I'm talking about being here
27:54Sometime tomorrow the world will catch up with us
28:00You have just as many opportunities as everyone else
28:13You must take hold of them, James
28:16Whenever I'm at a loss or unhappy
28:41I make lists
28:42It keeps me motivated
28:43It keeps me motivated and clears headspace
28:44You're making a list for me
28:47What would you have as your first point?
28:49I'd put sport
28:56Music
28:58There's nothing better than a war
29:00Because the sun goes down
29:01And when the sun comes up
29:03That's also great
29:03Oh, and anything that has chillies in it
29:09I'd be able to eat my way through everything in a band called football
29:12Oh, like fried insects, if you do
29:13Yeah, exactly
29:14Okay
29:15And to read more
29:16More reading
29:17Come on, let's go and sit by the room
29:20These are not life goals
29:23Dreams are for everyone
29:27I'm content when drawing
29:34Make a wish
29:39You forgot the most important thing
29:51I'm not
30:09I'm not
30:19Miss Bell, can you explain to me, please?
30:33Why come to Oxford?
30:41Can I ask if you're familiar with the elephant metaphor?
30:43Generally, the metaphor is used to describe a self-limiting set of beliefs.
30:53The fact that most people are capable of much more than they give themselves credit for.
30:57But I'm beginning to realize that I've tied myself to my future.
31:01And as a result, I didn't give the attention to many moments in the here and now that they deserve.
31:06James Beaufort?
31:08James Beaufort?
31:10Early on?
31:13I now know that it's the stops we make along the way that make up our actual lives.
31:23Our life in the here and now.
31:27And sometimes these very moments draw new, exciting visions of the future for us in the sand.
31:32You gotta run to me.
31:35Oh.
31:36Run, run like a river.
31:38Run, run like a river.
31:41Run, run like a river.
31:43Run.
31:46Run, run like a river.
31:48Run, run like a river.
31:50This is the voicemail of Cordelia Beaufort.
31:53Can you leave a message after the two?
31:56Hi, Mum.
31:56I hope you're doing well.
31:59I have something important to tell you.
32:02Don't worry, though.
32:04It's good news.
32:09I miss you, Mum.
32:11Let's meet up.
32:16Run, run like a river.
32:18Run, run like a river.
32:21Run, run like a river.
32:23Wow.
32:23We realize that we are no longer afraid of our future.
32:32Because it is in the present that we decide if our dreams will come true.
32:35And if we will become the people we always wanted to be.
32:45Run.
32:49Run, run like a river.
32:50Run, run like a river.
32:51Run, run like a river.
32:53Run, run like a river.
32:55Run, run like a river.
32:55Run, run like a river.
32:56Run, run like a river.
32:58Run, run like a river.
32:59It takes courage to think beyond the present.
33:03But sometimes it's another person's gaze that builds our future for us in a new light.
33:08I feel like I've arrived for the first time in my life
33:21Hello? Anybody here?
33:24I don't want to fast forward or rewind
33:26I want to be right here, right now
33:38Run, run like a river
33:42Run, run like a river
33:45Run, run like a river
33:47Run, run like a river
33:53Like a river that runs to the sea
33:57You gotta run to me
34:08Mr. Beaufort is waiting inside
34:38Sit down
35:07Sit down
35:08I believe I said take a seat
35:25Your mother has suffered a stroke
35:41Where is she?
35:47Cordelia is dead
35:48I'm afraid I came away yesterday when they told me there was nothing more they could do
36:09I finally had to leave the hospital
36:11You didn't even call
36:15Cordelia was so proud of your invitations to Oxford
36:18I didn't want to affect your interviews
36:19I already told you that keeping the investors happy is our top priority right now
36:27We can't allow the value to collapse
36:29Yes, I know that
36:33Damn it, Gordon
36:33Meredith needs to send a draft
36:36It has to go out to her
36:38James, don't
36:38Yes, damn it, Gordon
36:40I understand that
