00:28BIRDS CHIRP
00:58BIRDS CHIRP
01:04Take care, my boy. Take care.
01:06Is that you, Mr. Sowerberry?
01:07Yes, my dear.
01:09You're very late. Don't blame me if your supper's all shriveled up.
01:13I told you I should be detained, my dear.
01:18This is the boy from the workhouse that I told you of.
01:21Oh, so this is him, is it? He's very small, isn't he?
01:24Er, yes, he is rather small. There's no denying it.
01:28But he'll grow, Mrs. Sowerberry. He'll grow.
01:31Oh, I dare say he will on our victuals and our drink.
01:36I see no saving in parish children, I don't.
01:38They always cost more than they're worth.
01:41Still, men always think that they know best
01:43and there's no good trying to tell them otherwise.
01:45Well, don't just stand there shivering, you little bag of bones.
01:49Do something.
01:49What now?
01:51How should I know?
01:52I didn't bring you here, did I?
01:54Er, my dear.
01:56Perhaps a little supper for him.
01:58Oh, he's hungry already, of course.
02:01I might have known.
02:02Charlotte, give this boy the cold bits put by for the dog.
02:05He hasn't been back since this morning,
02:07so he can do without them.
02:08I dare say the boy isn't too dainty to eat them.
02:16Are you, boy?
02:18Now then, come along with me.
02:20Charlotte, did you put out that mattress like I told you?
02:22Yes, missus.
02:23Come on, boy, don't dawdle.
02:28Here's your bed under the counter.
02:32You don't mind sleeping amongst the coffins, I suppose?
02:35But it doesn't much matter whether you do or not,
02:38for you can't sleep anywhere else.
02:40Be up at six tomorrow morning to let the other apprentice in.
03:05Open the door, will you?
03:26Come on, don't keep me waiting.
03:36I'm coming as quick as I can, sir.
03:39I suppose you're the new boy, aren't you?
03:41Yes, sir.
03:42How old are you?
03:44Ten, sir.
03:45Then I'll walk you when I get in.
03:47Just to see if I don't, my worker's brat.
03:49I'll walk you when I get in.
04:05Pardon me, sir.
04:06Did you knock?
04:09No.
04:11I kicked.
04:13Did you want a coffin, sir?
04:14You come that sort of joke with me,
04:16and you're the one of coughing afore you're much older.
04:19Don't you know who I am, workers?
04:21No, sir.
04:23I'm Mr. Noah Claypole.
04:27And you're under me.
04:30Now take down them shutters, you idle young ruffian.
04:34Oh, Charlotte, me beauty.
04:36How are you?
04:38No, no.
04:40Get over to him.
04:42Oh, in the straight and all.
04:44There's nobody looking, except workers.
04:46Noah, dear, come into the kitchen.
04:48I saved a nice little bit of boating for you
04:50from the master's breakfast.
04:53Oliver, when you've done that,
04:55you'll find some bits I left out for you
04:57on the cover of the bread pan,
04:58and don't be all day eating
04:59because they want you to mind the shop.
05:01Do you hear?
05:02You hear, workers?
05:05Lord, Noah, what a rum creature you are.
05:08Why didn't you let the boy alone?
05:10Let him alone?
05:11Why, everyone's let him alone well enough, I should think.
05:14Neither his mother nor his father
05:16will ever interfere with him.
05:17All his relations let him have his own way pretty well.
05:20Eh, Charlotte?
05:21Oh, you clear as soul.
05:24Charlotte!
05:25Oh, there's the message.
05:26I've got to go.
05:26Hurry up and now,
05:27or she'll see what I saved for you.
05:31Didn't see nothing,
05:32and yet didn't hear nothing.
05:34Understand, workers?
05:36Yes, sir.
05:37Mind you, do.
05:39There you are, Bumble.
05:49Young twists and dentures.
05:51I hope you'll be good enough
05:52to step round with them to Mr. Sarbury's.
05:54I'll take him round with me tonight, sir.
05:56I've got to go to his shop to deliver an order.
05:58Not another funeral.
06:00That makes the third this week.
06:02Oh, what an expense to the parents.
06:04I know, sir,
06:05but they never think so that.
06:06They will go on doing it
06:08just out of sheer publicity,
06:10if you ask me, sir.
06:12And now, sir,
06:13if you'd just be good enough
06:14to sign the order, sir.
06:16Did Sarbury say
06:18how young twist is getting on?
06:20We ain't complain much,
06:21except the boy eats a good bit,
06:23but not outrageous.
06:25Ah, greed, greed.
06:27As you know, Bumble,
06:28I've done my best
06:29to stamp it out of this institution,
06:31but once the boys are free of us,
06:33it breaks out again.
06:35Gluttiness.
06:35That's what they are, sir.
06:36It's what I always said
06:38and what I will maintain.
06:40Gluttiness.
06:44Oh, thank you, my dear.
06:51Oliver, where are you?
06:52In the shop, man.
06:53We'll clean it up.
06:53You can clean these belts
06:54as soon as you finish.
06:56Why don't you put a good shine on them?
07:01My dear.
07:02Well?
07:03Oh.
07:04Oh, nothing, my dear, nothing.
07:06Oh, you brute.
07:08No, not at all, my dear.
07:10I didn't think he wanted to hear, my dear.
07:12I was only going to say...
07:14Oh, don't tell me what you were going to say.
07:16I'm nobody.
07:16Don't consult me, pray.
07:17I don't want to intrude on your secrets.
07:20Now, now, now, now, now, now, my love.
07:22My love.
07:23Oh, Katyn, the monster.
07:25Well, my dear, then,
07:26I want to ask your advice.
07:28Oh, don't ask mine.
07:29Ask somebody else's.
07:30I'm only that poor, deluded woman
07:35that you married 30 years ago
07:36and promised to love and cherish
07:38and goodness knows how many other lies besides.
07:40Pray don't go on so, my dear.
07:42It was only about young Twist,
07:44I wish to speak.
07:45A very good-looking boy, that,
07:47don't you think, my dear?
07:49He need be, for he eats enough.
07:51There's an expression of melancholy
07:53in his face that is very interesting.
07:57He would make a delightful mute, my love.
08:01A mute?
08:02That child?
08:03I don't mean a regular mute
08:04to attend on grown-up people,
08:06but only for children's practice.
08:08It would be very new
08:10to have a mute in proportion, my love.
08:13You may depend upon it.
08:14It would have a superb effect.
08:17They'd be the clothes.
08:19They cuffed a lot.
08:20But think of the custom.
08:21Think of the custom, my dear.
08:24And this is the sickly season.
08:26The infant mortality rate
08:28is always very high at this time.
08:31Noah, what do you want?
08:35I was just waiting to ask
08:36if there's anything to be done
08:38before I went home.
08:39Er, no, there's nothing you need do tonight.
08:42But now see that the brasses on the hearse
08:44are well polished tomorrow.
08:46Come on, young Twist, do them.
08:48He's under...
08:48Young Twist is doing the handles
08:50on the coffees.
08:52Besides,
08:53I may have other work
08:54for young Twist in the future.
08:57All right, that's all now, huh?
09:00I'll sign these indentures, my dear,
09:03and then he'll be properly bound to us.
09:05You mark my words.
09:07Young Twist
09:08will prove a very profitable investment.
09:11Well, Oliver,
09:19and how do you like your new clothes?
09:20Well, you feel a little strange, sir.
09:22Oh, no doubt, no doubt.
09:24You'll get used to them.
09:26Now then,
09:27you're coming along with me this morning.
09:29I'm going to measure for a coffin.
09:30Measure for it?
09:31Well, of course,
09:32people have to be measured for them.
09:34Now, you know,
09:35people aren't all the same sizes.
09:37Some are tall
09:37and some are short.
09:39Well, look at the difference
09:40between you and me now.
09:41We shouldn't both want
09:41the same size box, should we?
09:43Yes, sir.
09:45Now,
09:46now,
09:47take up your stick, Oliver.
09:49It's all part of the mess.
09:54Oh, now,
09:55mind the shop while we're out.
09:56Shampoo along.
09:57Yes, Mr. Sowerberry.
10:27Nobody shall go near her.
10:31Keep back, damn you.
10:32Keep back if you've a life to lose.
10:34Nonsense, my good man.
10:35Nonsense.
10:37I'll tell you,
10:38I won't have her put in the ground.
10:41She couldn't rest there.
10:43She's so worn away.
10:47I'll say she was starved to death.
10:50I didn't know how bad she was
10:52until the fever came on her.
10:54Neither fire nor candle.
10:57She died in the dark.
11:00She couldn't even see our faces,
11:02although I heard her
11:03gasping at our names.
11:07I begged for her on the streets.
11:10They sent me to prison.
11:12When I came back,
11:14she was dying.
11:16When all the blood in my heart
11:18had dried up for her
11:19and knew they'd starved her to death.
11:21Yes, I tell you,
11:23they'd starved her.
11:24It was my daughter.
11:26My daughter.
11:28It's strange,
11:30but I who gave birth to her
11:32am still alive and married
11:34while she lies there so cold and stiff.
11:42Yes.
11:43Very good.
11:44To think of it.
11:46To think of it.
11:47It's as good as a play.
11:49As good as a play.
11:55Well,
11:57send me a cloak.
11:59A good, large one for the funeral.
12:01For it's bitter cold now.
12:05We should have some
12:06wine
12:07and cake, shouldn't we,
12:09before we go?
12:10But never mind.
12:12Send some bread
12:13and a cup of water.
12:15I'll be going to have some.
12:18All right, dear.
12:19All right.
12:20You shall have anything you want,
12:22my dear.
12:23Anything you want.
12:26Well, Oliver,
12:27how do you think you'll like the business?
12:30Pretty well, sir.
12:32Well,
12:32not very much, sir.
12:34Ah, you'll soon get used to it.
12:37Nothing at all to it
12:38when you get used to it.
12:39Oh, no!
13:00We'll get over to him!
13:02I'm busy.
13:04You've got time for me, haven't you?
13:05Not today, I haven't.
13:06I've got to get Oliver's dinner ready early.
13:08There's three funerals sat in
13:10and he's wanted in all of them.
13:11I don't see why
13:12he was promoting over me.
13:14I ought to be sitting up there
13:15on the earth
13:15and standing alongside Master
13:17at the gravesite.
13:18Well, I'd look as well
13:19in them clothes
13:19as young workers,
13:21wouldn't I?
13:21Yes, no, dear.
13:22Of course you would,
13:24only you ain't little,
13:26you see.
13:26That's the difference.
13:28Oh, they'll come in here.
13:29You'd better get back to the shop.
13:32Now, then,
13:33have your dinner quickly, Oliver,
13:34while I see to the horses.
13:36Yes, sir.
13:37Hi, darling.
13:38Why are you minding the shop?
13:40I'm just going, Mr. Sowerberry.
13:42She called me in.
13:45Now, make a good meal, my boy.
13:46It's cold outside.
13:48And don't be all day about it.
13:50I've got to help Mrs. with the washing.
13:51I've got to help you.
14:01Yeah.
14:33Well, well. So young Workus gets a big plateful now. Workus is getting quite a favourite
14:50with the master, isn't he? Workus will be above himself soon with all his nice new clothes
14:55and his new hat with a nice great band and beautiful silver-handled ebony cane. His own mother wouldn't
15:06know him now, would she? And neither would Workus if he saw her. How's your mother, Workus?
15:14She's dead, and don't say anything more about her to me.
15:17Ah. Will she die, old Workus?
15:19Don't you talk about my mother to you?
15:21No, I'll bet you don't. She was a nice one, wasn't she, your mother?
15:25You'd better not say any more. You'd better not.
15:27Better not. Well, there's impudence for you. Your mother, indeed.
15:32Well, just for that, Workus, I'll tell you. Your mother was a regular right-down badden.
15:39What did you say?
15:40A regular right-down badden, Workus. Of course, you couldn't help it then, and I'm sure we
15:44all pity you very much. But it's a great deal better she died when she did, otherwise she'd
15:49have been hard labouring in Bridewell, or transported, or hung, which is a great deal more likely
15:53than either, isn't it? Now, what are you doing?
15:55Oh, no, stop. Oh, get off. Oh, take him off me. Help. Here's the new boy. I'm murdering
16:00off me. Help. Help. Mrs. Charlotte. Help. Help. Get him off me. Will you murder me? Help.
16:09Take him. Take over the murdering, Finn, and attack your elders and betters. Would you take
16:14that, auntie? Let me go. Let me go. I'll kill him.
16:17Don't hear him. He's mad. I can't hold you, Mrs. He's that strong.
16:21Knock him in the coal cellar. Knock him off. He's talking to my mother. I'll kill him.
16:26And what if he did, you miserable little wretch? Get him there. Oh. Oh, look out. She's going
16:32off. Oh. Oh, it's all over now, ma'am. Don't take home so. He's safe now. He can't get
16:39at us. Oh, oh. Charlotte. Charlotte, what a mercy. We haven't all been murdered in our
16:46bed. Oh, it's a mercy indeed. I only hope this will teach the master not to have any more
16:50of these dreadful creatures would have born to be robbers and murderers from their very
16:54cradles. Poor Noah. It was all but kill when I come in, ma'am.
16:59Oh. Oh. What's to be done? That boy will lock the door down in ten minutes and he'll be
17:04over the master's and over not a man in the house. Send for the military. Are the police officers?
17:08No, Bumble. Get the Bumble directly and get to Marseille from the stables.
17:13Nowhere. Nowhere. Hold this dear black eye as you run along. It'll keep the swelling down.
17:19Let me out. Ah. Ah. Ah. Oh. Oh. Oh, help. Help. Mr. Bumble, sir.
17:36What in the name of goodness is this? Another pauper wanted to be admitted, I suppose.
17:43Never a minute's peace for a man. God bless my soul. What's the matter?
17:47Oh, Mr. Bumble, sir. Mr. Bumble, it's Oliver, sir. Oliver.
17:50What? Not run away, not run away as he knows? Oh, no, sir. No, not run away. But he's turned vicious, sir.
17:55He tried to murder me and then he tried to murder Charlotte and then the missus. Oh, what dreadful pain it is.
18:01Such agony, please, sir. What's this? What's going on here, Bumble?
18:06Mr. Sourbridge's apprentice, sir, has been all but murdered by young Twist.
18:09I knew it. I knew it. I felt a strange presentiment from the very first that that young savage would come to be hung.
18:15He also attempted, sir, to murder the female servant. And the missus. And your master, too, I believe you said no?
18:21Oh, no, he's out. Or he would have murdered him. He said he wanted to.
18:25Ah, he said he wanted to, did he? Yes, sir. And please, sir, missus says, can Mr. Bumble step up there directly and flog him while I run and get master?
18:33Certainly, my boys, certainly. You're a good boy. You're a very good boy. Here's a pity for you.
18:38Oh, thank you, sir.
18:39Be off now and find Mr. Sourbridge directly. Yes, sir.
18:42Bumble, step round to Sourbridge's with your cane and see what's best to be done. And don't spare him, Bumble.
18:50No, sir. No, I won't.
18:51And tell Sourbridge not to spare him either. I'll take care, sir.
18:54Never do anything with him without stripes and bruises.
18:58I knew I was right. That boy had the mark of the criminal on him from the first moment I saw him.
19:07Let me out! Let me out!
19:10Oh, Mr. Bumble.
19:11I come straight in, ma'am. Now, where is the young villain?
19:14In there. Mr. Bumble, I'm all over tremble.
19:17You leave me to deal with this, ma'am.
19:20Let me out!
19:21He's going on like that all the time, has he?
19:23Like a young tiger he was, Mr. Bumble. I never see anything like it.
19:26Hmm. Oliver!
19:30Oliver!
19:31Can you hear me?
19:32Mr. Bumble!
19:33You see, Mr. Bumble, the way he goes on.
19:37Do you know this here voice, Oliver?
19:39Yes!
19:40Ain't you a fear of it? Ain't you a trembling as I speak, sir?
19:45No!
19:47You see, Mr. Bumble, the boy must be mad.
19:49No boy in half his senses would venture to speak to you, sir.
19:52It's not madness, ma'am! It's meat!
19:55What?
19:56Meat, ma'am! Meat!
19:58You've overfed him!
20:00You've raised up an artificial soul and spirit in him, unbecoming a person of his condition!
20:06If you'd kept that boy on gruel, ma'am, this would never have happened!
20:09I think I should have been so repaid!
20:14This comes of being liberal, Mr. Bumble!
20:17Ah!
20:18Well, the only thing you can do now is to leave him in that cellar for a day or two until he's a little starved down.
20:23Then, take him out and keep him on gruel for the rest of his apprenticeship.
20:29He comes of a very difficult family, Mrs. Sowerberry.
20:33Excitable natures!
20:34Why, when he was born, the doctor said that mother of his made her way here against difficulties that would have killed any ordinary, well-disposed woman weeks before!
20:42Get me out!
20:43Get me out!
20:44Get me out!
20:46He's in the cold, sir, is he?
20:47Mr. Sowerberry, be careful! He's murderous!
20:49He won't murder me!
20:51Now there, young Oliver!
20:52What's all this other...
20:54Oh, keep him off!
20:55Keep him off!
20:56Keep him off!
20:57Stop it!
20:58Stop it!
20:59Now, what's he done to you?
21:00He called my mother nine!
21:01And what if he did, you miserable little wretch?
21:03She deserved what he said and worse!
21:04She didn't!
21:05You're alive!
21:07Oh, do you know what he called a mystery?
21:09I thought that I should be married to a man who lest me be cold!
21:12No!
21:13I...
21:14I tried to be kind to you.
21:15I bought you that suit of clothes.
21:16I planned to teach you the business.
21:18But when it comes to attacking members of my family, you're all going to get that flashing on your life.
21:23In there, will you?
21:24In there, will you?
21:25Go on.
21:28Go with him, Mr. Bumble.
21:31See that he does it properly.
21:33I don't think there's any doubt of that, ma'am.
21:35But I'll go in all the same.
21:37And when his arm begins to tire, they'll be mine, ready to take over.
21:51Get out something nice to eat, Charlotte.
21:54After all I've been through this last half hour, I feel every bit of strength has gone out of me.
22:00Nice little bit of pork.
22:02Half of the mutton pie.
22:04And a nice drop of strong broth.
22:06I'll pick a little of those, and you can draw a pint of porter to go with them.
22:10Noah will stay and eat with us, won't you, Noah?
22:13Oh, yes, Mrs. Sowerberry.
