In the late 1800s, two boys decide to divert an underground river and this causes problems for everyone in two villages, who demand the water for themselves.

00:00:00We plough the fields and scatter the good seed of the land,
00:00:26but it is fed as orchard by God's almighty hand.
00:00:33He sends the snow in winter, the warmth of the rain,
00:00:39the breezes and the sunshine, and stars with red in rain.
00:00:45All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above.
00:00:50Then thank the Lord, oh, thank the Lord.
00:01:01Please be seated.
00:01:05Let's come.
00:01:09Let's come.
00:01:13Let's dive into the blue water.
00:01:18Let's dive into the blue water.
00:01:22Come here, Uncle.
00:01:52Oh, my God.
00:02:22Oh, my God.
00:02:52Oh, my God.
00:03:22Oh, my God.
00:03:52Oh, my God.
00:04:22Oh, my God.
00:04:52Oh, my God.
00:05:22Oh, my God.
00:05:52Oh, my God.
00:06:22Oh, my God.
00:06:23Oh, my God.
00:06:24Oh, my God.
00:06:26Come along in, my dear.
00:06:27Come along in, my dear.
00:06:28Never you mind, Joe.
00:06:29We'll get used to you.
00:06:30All bark and no bite, city creature.
00:06:32Stay.
00:06:33Come along in, come along in, come along in, come on.
00:06:39Come on.
00:06:40Come on.
00:06:41Come on.
00:06:42That's it.
00:06:43Yes.
00:06:44Good boy.
00:06:45Come along in, come along with, you can take this away.
00:06:52Okay.
00:06:54Oh, my God.
00:06:56Oh, my God.
00:07:06I fancy you'll find us a bit slow here after the city, my dear.
00:07:27A bit rough in our ways.
00:07:28We're not given to visitors at West Polly.
00:07:32Father says I must help on the farm.
00:07:34I won't hear of any such thing.
00:07:36You take your time, catch your breath.
00:07:39Stephen will show you about the neighbourhood when you're accustomed to us all.
00:07:43There's not much to be attended to now the hour is over.
00:07:57Ma, you do as you're told, my lad.
00:07:59You should box your ears, Steve Dracon, leaving that poor lad to walk all that way alone.
00:08:04I need the fresh air.
00:08:08Oh, you'll get plenty of that here, my dear.
00:08:13You have a milked cow, Cousin Leonard?
00:08:17No.
00:08:18Cows in the city?
00:08:20Whatever next.
00:08:20I have seen two Egyptian mummies.
00:08:23I have seen two Egyptian mummies.
00:08:26I have seen two Egyptian mummies.
00:08:31What do they call those hills?
00:08:56Son of a schoolmaster, and you don't know that?
00:08:59They're not very high.
00:09:04I've seen buildings higher.
00:09:07Men have died climbing those hills.
00:09:10Inside and out.
00:09:11Inside?
00:09:12Do you mean caves?
00:09:14Caves, quarries and the like.
00:09:15Very deep.
00:09:24Is that how your father died?
00:09:28You've truly seen Egyptian mummies.
00:09:31No.
00:09:31Hmm.
00:09:45No.
00:10:03Ah.
00:10:04Chut.
00:10:34Oh, my God.
00:11:04When snow's come, you'll not get near the cave.
00:11:16Are we nearly there yet?
00:11:18Backside of this hill.
00:11:20When wind's in the west, you can smell the sea up here.
00:11:24I think I'd like to be a farmer.
00:11:26You?
00:11:28You'd not last a week.
00:11:30Milk the cows, feed the fowl, muck out the buyer, fetch this, carry that.
00:11:37I've had a belly full of farming, I have.
00:11:40What would you rather do?
00:11:42Be an explorer.
00:11:45Nightwalkers!
00:11:47Pilgrims, boys!
00:11:49Comers and goers!
00:11:51Believe me, there are as many drudgeries attached to that way of life as any other.
00:11:57Be a farmer, Master Dracus.
00:12:01The straight course is generally the better.
00:12:04G'day to you.
00:12:22Who's that?
00:12:24Nobody.
00:12:25Is it the squaw?
00:12:26That old goat.
00:12:27Folks in these parts call him the man who's failed.
00:12:33Come on.
00:12:35The man who's failed?
00:12:37He's been everywhere.
00:12:40Tried old manner of things and never got rich.
00:12:42Who's he to tell me what to do?
00:12:44Good, sir.
00:12:46Good, sir.
00:12:47Come on.
00:12:48Good, sir.
00:12:50Come on.
00:13:21There's four caves I've been into and all.
00:13:36Grimbelly, that's a grand size, that one is.
00:13:39Goblin's cellar.
00:13:40Giant's ear.
00:13:42And this one.
00:13:44Old Neck's pocket.
00:13:46Smells a bit like a cellar.
00:13:48Now look.
00:13:49Never tell Ma I took you down here.
00:13:52She'd thrash me if she knew.
00:13:54All right?
00:13:56All right.
00:13:58Been a fall of rock since I saw it last.
00:14:01Hey.
00:14:03These could be cave paintings, I think.
00:14:06Oh, aye.
00:14:07You'll find things like that all over.
00:14:09They're beautiful.
00:14:10Robbers once lived in these caves.
00:14:15Till the villagers drove them out.
00:14:17Their boot is still buried up here.
00:14:19Never been found.
00:14:23They took cats from West Poli.
00:14:25To eat in their stews.
00:14:26Ugh.
00:14:27I'd sooner eat robbers.
00:14:31Steve?
00:14:34Steve?
00:14:35Over here.
00:14:38Where are you?
00:14:42Steve?
00:14:47Where are you?
00:14:49Under your feet.
00:14:54Quick, give me the light.
00:14:56Here.
00:14:56Here.
00:14:56Steve?
00:15:01Steve?
00:15:02Steve?
00:15:03Steve, come back.
00:15:05I can't see.
00:15:06Steve!
00:15:06Let's go.
00:15:36Look at that!
00:15:51I'm going to climb up there.
00:15:53Come on.
00:15:55Let's see if we can get across.
00:16:07We could jump it easy.
00:16:09I couldn't.
00:16:10But take off your pretty boots and wade, then.
00:16:13Hey, Steve, look here.
00:16:17This must be the way the river used to run.
00:16:20See?
00:16:21Down that hole.
00:16:24Both rocks have changed its course.
00:16:26Now let's change it back again.
00:16:34What?
00:16:35Come on.
00:16:36You can never win against water.
00:16:38We could try.
00:16:40We'd need a spade.
00:16:42Wait.
00:16:43Take that.
00:16:44It won't be long.
00:16:45Steve?
00:16:48Stephen!
00:16:48Come on!
00:17:18The
00:17:41This is the first time I'm going to get to the top.
00:17:44It's time to go up to the top.
00:17:50I'm going to open this up and open the top.
00:17:59It's time to get to the top.
00:18:02I'm going to get to the top.
00:18:07Shhh...
00:18:37Oh, my God.
00:19:07Oh, my God.
00:19:37Oh, my God.
00:19:43Oh, my God.
00:19:45Oh, my God.
00:19:47Oh, my God.
00:19:49I'm gonna go! Come on!
00:19:55It won't, Steve! It won't!
00:19:57Just think of it, Steve. Not a soul was ever here before us.
00:20:19As folk in the village, seen bones of prehistoric men and great beasts, deep down in the rock.
00:20:26Well, I shouldn't mind that. I'm not prehistoric men. I mean, no robbers or gypsies or hermits.
00:20:34Your best girlfriend can just run out.
00:20:56And go on. Just make something with your steaks.
00:21:02And go on. Just make something with your steaks.
00:21:08All right, darling. I'll be with you in a moment.
00:21:12Oh, my.
00:21:22Oh, my.
00:21:24Oh, my.
00:21:28Oh, my.
00:21:36Oh, my.
00:21:38Oh, my!
00:21:53Oh, my God.
00:22:23I need more candles.
00:22:42When are you wanting?
00:22:44Listen.
00:22:46What is it?
00:22:48It's made like a griffin.
00:22:50I'd know that mad bull anywhere.
00:22:51He sounds angry.
00:22:53It was his pickaxe.
00:22:56Why me?
00:22:57I don't drink hard.
00:22:58I pay my way like a man.
00:23:00Well, there's things you're farming.
00:23:01You only grind on the Sabbath when there's no getting through the work otherwise.
00:23:04Why me?
00:23:05Oh, don't take on Mr. Griffin.
00:23:07It might come right again.
00:23:08How can what's gone forever come back again?
00:23:09What uses a mill without water?
00:23:11A ruined woman, ruined.
00:23:12I believe that's witchcraft.
00:23:15All that money I've sunk in that mill.
00:23:16What is it now but a heap of useless stones and wood?
00:23:19Do you think he was the only one to suffer?
00:23:22Oh, it's the beginning of my fegals.
00:23:25How can a washerwoman wash without water?
00:23:27First time in Paris, sir.
00:23:29Earthquake more lovely.
00:23:33Whatever it were, it's the ruination of us all.
00:23:36I shall have to be kept by the parish.
00:23:38Let me take him for a little while, my dear, and you have a rest.
00:23:41Come along, Matthew.
00:23:42I'll take you for a little walk.
00:23:43There's a good boy.
00:23:45Oh, yes.
00:23:46There you go.
00:23:46Oh, yes.
00:23:50What's that?
00:23:50What?
00:23:50A mystery.
00:23:52The river's dried up all of a sudden.
00:23:53Seems our well is the only water left.
00:23:56Well, well, well.
00:23:57Here's excitement on your first day.
00:23:59Excitement we could do without us, young man.
00:24:02It's a flat day for West Polly.
00:24:04I don't want you to live if the river never comes back.
00:24:07Order my cattle drink.
00:24:08I'll.
00:24:09Give him I'll.
00:24:11Does it matter to a choppy sort of farmer like you, Wilgant?
00:24:14We can all draw water from Widow Draycott's well till things come right again.
00:24:19Oh, goodness sake, take all you want for washing and cooking.
00:24:22Come right.
00:24:23Oh, come right.
00:24:24The water's gone.
00:24:24One word, Leonard Draycott.
00:24:26You've sworn on oath.
00:24:28Hey, that's certain.
00:24:29Right.
00:24:29Someone has to go to East Polly and hire a water cart.
00:24:34Come and Draycott here.
00:24:35Who like to swallow, we do.
00:24:36Master Draycott?
00:24:37Aye.
00:24:38I'll go.
00:24:40Right.
00:24:41Let's see you go like to swallow, then.
00:24:43First it was a new pair of millstones.
00:24:45That bat ball crap was shaking.
00:24:46Last month, bad speculation and corn.
00:24:50All that loss and labor for nothing.
00:24:52Nothing!
00:24:53Water cart.
00:24:54What use is that to me?
00:24:59Thanks, Ben.
00:25:04Thanks, Ben.
00:26:34You all right?
00:26:39Well, lad, what are you doing over in these parts?
00:26:53Is there a wedding?
00:26:55Wedding? Better!
00:26:59Wedding's a two-a-penny.
00:27:02But you don't get a new river every day.
00:27:04New river?
00:27:06It is the good Lord's gift.
00:27:08Bursting out the quarry like thunder.
00:27:11It is a miracle, no less. A true miracle.
00:27:14But your fields will flood.
00:27:16Bless you, lad.
00:27:18Want to water as all us hail this parish.
00:27:21There's not a man here as won't benefit from the good luck.
00:27:27They'll not be bothered by flooded fields.
00:27:51Come on.
00:27:53Come on.
00:27:55Come on.
00:27:57Come on.
00:28:00Come on.
00:28:01Oh
00:28:31Come here.
00:28:33Get him!
00:28:35Stop! Leave him alone!
00:28:37Let him be, you be!
00:28:45Give me that.
00:28:51No sense of decency?
00:28:53He was beating this boy, sir.
00:28:55And what had he done to deserve such punishment?
00:28:57What cause have you to say you leave?
00:28:59Not body and soul, Mr. Griffin.
00:29:13So you, er...
00:29:15You wish to leave the mood, Joke Trey?
00:29:21Aye, sir.
00:29:23Will you allow yourself to be ruled by me in this matter?
00:29:25Definitely will. This is private doings.
00:29:27No longer!
00:29:29And who are you to tell me right or wrong?
00:29:31A man who's failed in everything.
00:29:35I did not fail in life for want of good sense.
00:29:39You fancy learning means nothing to me, old man.
00:29:43Mill work or no mill work, that boy's staying here.
00:29:47I advise you to listen to me.
00:29:49From the terms of his indentures, this boy must be at liberty to leave your service now.
00:29:55There's no work for him to do.
00:29:57What if the river runs again, sir?
00:29:59Well, then, of course, we'll be bound to finish out your apprenticeship.
00:30:03In the meantime, you may come with me if you so wish.
00:30:09There's much work to do in my garden.
00:30:11Thanks, sir.
00:30:13I'll send the boy back, should the river return.
00:30:23As you wish.
00:30:25And you, if I catch you on my property again, I'll give you such a beating as you've never felt the force off before.
00:30:31Mr. Griffin!
00:30:33One blow to either boy, and I'll make sure that you lose not only your apprentice, but your mill.
00:30:57What's your name?
00:30:58Draycott, sir.
00:31:00Leonard Draycott.
00:31:03You did well, Leonard Draycott.
00:31:33The old man was a marvel.
00:31:35He stood up to that miller like a real kiter.
00:31:39Poor Joe.
00:31:41I think he's used to old treatment.
00:31:51Great bully.
00:31:53I'll not return his pickaxe or his spade.
00:31:55Let's go back tomorrow, Steve.
00:31:57And mend the harm we've done.
00:31:59Not before we've had some fun.
00:32:01The river can be set right again in no time.
00:32:05We must put it right.
00:32:07We'll frighten the villagers after death.
00:32:09A day without water's no hardship.
00:32:11They have the water cart from East Poley.
00:32:13Think of all the fish we've killed.
00:32:17We could cast spells.
00:32:19What do you mean?
00:32:20Magical powers to trick the people of East Poley.
00:32:23You can be the wizard.
00:32:25Why me?
00:32:26Because they know me, Donkey.
00:32:27You're a stranger in the district.
00:32:29Now, we shall need burnt cork and a watch.
00:32:33We must have a watch.
00:32:35Shall we tell Joe?
00:32:36Tell him.
00:32:37Not get by without him.
00:32:39We shall show him our cave first thing tomorrow.
00:32:59Let's go.
00:33:00Let's go.
00:33:01Let's go.
00:33:02Let's go.
00:33:03Let's go.
00:33:04Let's go.
00:33:05Let's go.
00:33:26Okay.
00:33:27Okay.
00:33:29Hey!
00:33:59Joltry, you've cracked.
00:34:14Turn the stream, and that Parkinson mill will run again.
00:34:17Will you not go back to that devil?
00:34:20Where is he?
00:34:25Tannic or what?
00:34:30Balcazar!
00:34:32Are you there, Balcazar?
00:34:35Balcazar!
00:34:40What's he doing?
00:34:45He's nothing but a boy, Steve Draker.
00:34:50He's not a boy, he's a dwarf.
00:34:53Show us the magic!
00:34:58Show him your warts, Samuel.
00:35:00His powers are water, not warts.
00:35:02Why doesn't he say something?
00:35:04Who was it?
00:35:05Made the new river.
00:35:06An earthquake.
00:35:08He said it flowing, and he can stop it just as easy.
00:35:12I don't believe it.
00:35:14Show us.
00:35:15Travelling magicians have to be rewarded.
00:35:18Come on, Steve, it must be almost McDade.
00:35:30Get off the water, old Balcazar!
00:35:33Right.
00:35:34Do you want Job, we'll be hooted out of this place?
00:35:45Come on, Job.
00:35:46Come on!
00:35:47The river do run just to say, Steve Draker.
00:36:00The spell takes time to work.
00:36:01Susan!
00:36:02Susan!
00:36:03Susan!
00:36:04Come on, quick!
00:36:05Come on!
00:36:06Come on!
00:36:07Come on!
00:36:08Come on!
00:36:09Come on!
00:36:10The river do run just to say, Steve Draker.
00:36:13The spell takes time to work.
00:36:15Susan!
00:36:16Susan!
00:36:17Come on, quick!
00:36:19Come on!
00:36:20Susan!
00:36:21Come on, quick!
00:36:22Come on!
00:36:23Come on, quick!
00:36:24Come on, quick!
00:36:25Come on, quick!
00:36:26Come on, quick!
00:36:47That uppity Susan!
00:36:48It took so long, I thought Job had gone to sleep.
00:36:52Job!
00:36:54It worked, Job!
00:36:56Oi!
00:36:57See what they gave us?
00:37:00Spoilers!
00:37:01What is it, Job?
00:37:02My turn of water.
00:37:03We know that!
00:37:04He sent it back to West Poli.
00:37:07You've not sent it back to East Poli again.
00:37:11Of course not.
00:37:12Then where did you turn it?
00:37:14You've found another hole!
00:37:18Oi!
00:37:19Oi. And block the other two, so you'll not get them open again with your explosive.
00:37:28Ain't I suffered enough?
00:37:32We all suffer.
00:37:34These Poli don't suffer. They got the water. They're out by rights to be running through here.
00:37:39Mr. Jones!
00:37:39The enemies have done this.
00:37:41Mr. Jones!
00:37:44The water. She's dropped again.
00:37:46These Poli's water dried up suddenly she came.
00:37:48The East Poli?
00:37:51Aye, there's a pretty piece of mischief here.
00:37:53Be an eye all right, Mr. Jones. Blaming us?
00:37:56We'll see about that.
00:37:58Come on, Jones.
00:38:04We should have let the river on the way nature intended it.
00:38:07And sent your back to that bully Griffin?
00:38:09No. But we had no right to take the river from one village and just give it to another.
00:38:14So now we've sent it to neither. What could be a better finish?
00:38:17Look. Look, I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll come back tomorrow with gunpowder.
00:38:23I mean it.
00:38:25We'll block that little passageway for good, so no one can tamper with this stream again.
00:38:30I think we'd best wait and see where it breaks out next.
00:38:34If the water's not flowing into East Poli, and it's not filling our river, where is it going to?
00:38:40We'll search every plaguey Elfire Cab until we find that water in. Some gangsters tampered with it, you mock my words, and keep your eyes skinned for that snotty draker brat. He's at the root of this.
00:38:58Best crawl out of here while it lasts.
00:39:05What time is it, I wonder?
00:39:06What's this?
00:39:07Ten past five.
00:39:08Oh.
00:39:09That's my freedom, that is. The old man wrote it for me this morning.
00:39:12I hereby certify that I release from this time forth my apprentice Job Tray by his wish.
00:39:22I demand no further service from him whatever. This is my solemn oath, George Griffin Miller.
00:39:29Never sign that, Job. Not old Griffin.
00:39:32I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:39:39What am I saying? What am I saying?
00:39:40What am I saying?
00:39:42What am I saying?
00:39:43What am I saying?
00:39:45What am I saying?
00:39:48What am I saying, Job?
00:39:54I demand no further service from him, whatever. This is my solemn oath, George Griffin Miller.
00:40:01Never sign that, Job. Not old Griffin.
00:40:04There's no sound of running water.
00:40:09Lord, save us. We're flooded.
00:40:12How could it have happened?
00:40:13We're done for.
00:40:14The fat hole we sent the river down.
00:40:16It must have been a blind passage.
00:40:18And now the water's doubled back.
00:40:19There's one chance for us.
00:40:21But we're trapped.
00:40:23The water's already gone.
00:40:23We have to open one of the channels we choked up.
00:40:25Quick.
00:40:27Not you.
00:40:28Lather off as many things as you can.
00:40:30Before we're all swamped.
00:40:32We'll try for the pickaxe.
00:40:34I missus have got more going there than you, Ned Jones.
00:40:44The light's failing.
00:40:46I got milking to do.
00:40:49We're not locked in grim belly yet.
00:40:51Come on.
00:40:51Let's go.
00:41:13It's not good. It's not good.
00:41:31It's fast. We've got more of being forced down by the water.
00:41:37We'll have to find another way.
00:41:40How many candles have we left?
00:41:43Including the lantern, nine ends. Some long, some short.
00:41:49Are you still rising, Steve?
00:41:51Aye, still rising.
00:41:54And even if it's stopped, we'd only exchange strolling for starving.
00:41:58Oh, my God.
00:42:02Steve?
00:42:14Joe?
00:42:15Steve?
00:42:29Jove?
00:42:31Steve!
00:42:32Jove!
00:42:33Jove, wake up!
00:42:34The candles flicker.
00:42:36Steve!
00:42:37The candles flicker when I hold them off.
00:42:39There's a draft.
00:42:41There's a draft.
00:42:42It's coming from above.
00:42:45There, there, see that darkest shadow?
00:42:49There's a hole.
00:42:50There's a hole.
00:42:51But we could never reach it from here.
00:42:54Could we?
00:42:57We may float up.
00:43:01It's hopeless.
00:43:06The place is bone dry.
00:43:07I tell you I can hear water.
00:43:15Try again.
00:43:30Save yourself.
00:43:31The fruit's coming in.
00:43:32The name of fortune did that come from?
00:43:35Hey.
00:43:36Listen.
00:43:37Again, together.
00:43:38Help!
00:43:39Help!
00:43:40Help!
00:43:40Help!
00:43:41Help!
00:43:41Help!
00:43:42Help!
00:43:43Help!
00:43:43Help!
00:43:44Help!
00:43:44Help!
00:43:45This way!
00:43:46Come on, down here!
00:43:46Help, quickly!
00:43:47Oh!
00:43:48Careful.
00:43:49Come on.
00:43:49Hurry.
00:43:50Hurry!
00:43:51This way!
00:43:51Come on!
00:43:52Come on!
00:43:53Come on!
00:43:54Come on!
00:43:54Help!
00:43:55No!
00:43:56Ah!
00:43:58Quick, help.
00:43:59Quick!
00:43:59Quick, come on!
00:44:00Two!
00:44:01Three!
00:44:02Three!
00:44:03Come on!
00:44:03One mile!
00:44:04Drive him!
00:44:04Put him sink!
00:44:05Put him sink!
00:44:06Come on!
00:44:07That's a lot of wood.
00:44:09Give him any me!
00:44:09Give him any me!
00:44:10Get him up!
00:44:11Get him up!
00:44:12Get him up!
00:44:13I'll pop under the rack!
00:44:25Sue me home now.
00:44:28Mr Jones will fetch help.
00:44:31I'll have you whip for the thought of you.
00:44:34Move over, boy. Give me some room on this miserable perch.
00:44:37You treat us civil, or I'll push you back in that water.
00:44:43Come on, come on.
00:45:01Come on, hurry.
00:45:05Oh, I'm coming!
00:45:08I'd better sing.
00:45:10We should sing.
00:45:11We should pray.
00:45:13Shh, quiet.
00:45:15I can hear voices.
00:45:16We're saved.
00:45:18Is that you, Jones?
00:45:20Ahoy!
00:45:22Come on, shout them yourself!
00:45:24My father, they know we're down here.
00:45:29Ahoy down here!
00:45:31Throw down the rope!
00:45:33How many?
00:45:34Four of us!
00:45:35Is that you, Steve Dracut?
00:45:36For the love of goodness, Will Gant, throw down the rope!
00:45:40The little lad first, George Griffin, you cringing jelly!
00:45:41The little lad first, George Griffin, you cringing jelly.
00:45:42Right.
00:45:43Put your foot in the noose and swing out.
00:45:47Hold tight.
00:45:48Hold tight.
00:45:49Heave away!
00:45:50Put your pants into it.
00:45:51Good grip.
00:45:52Get that pedal!
00:45:53I got you!
00:45:54Oh no!
00:45:55There's a pedal!
00:45:56I got you!
00:45:57I got you!
00:45:58Oh no!
00:45:59Oh no!
00:46:00That's weird!
00:46:01How's the boy doing?
00:46:02Can't play!
00:46:03All right.
00:46:04All right.
00:46:05All right.
00:46:06All right.
00:46:07All right.
00:46:08Get your foot in the noose and swing out.
00:46:09Hold tight.
00:46:10Heave away!
00:46:11Put your pants into it.
00:46:12Keep a good grip.
00:46:13Get that pedal!
00:46:14I got you!
00:46:15Oh no!
00:46:16There's a pedal!
00:46:17I got you!
00:46:18Oh no!
00:46:19There's a pedal!
00:46:20There's a pedal!
00:46:21How's the boy doing?
00:46:22Well done.
00:46:23Can't play.
00:46:24All right.
00:46:26All right.
00:46:27All right.
00:46:28Good boy.
00:46:29Good boy.
00:46:30Good boy.
00:46:31Good boy.
00:46:32All right.
00:46:33Do exactly as Leonard did.
00:46:34Hey!
00:46:35All right.
00:46:36Up you go.
00:46:37What is it?
00:46:38It's my heart, lad.
00:46:39I'm not a well man.
00:46:40Best.
00:46:41Best lad.
00:46:42I'll be going next.
00:46:43You're a good lad at heart.
00:46:44I'll see you.
00:46:45I'll see you.
00:46:46You're a good lad at heart.
00:46:47I'll see you.
00:46:48You're a good lad at heart.
00:46:49I'll see you.
00:46:50I'll see you.
00:46:51I'll see you.
00:46:52Exactly as Leonard did.
00:46:53All right.
00:46:54Up you go.
00:46:55What is it?
00:46:56It's my heart, lad.
00:46:57I'm not a well man.
00:46:58Best, best lad we go next.
00:46:59Ah.
00:47:00You are too feared to be left till last.
00:47:01I suppose I'm not able to catch you off the rope.
00:47:03If I fall in again, I'll drown.
00:47:05You can go next.
00:47:07You're a good lad at heart.
00:47:09You're a good lad at heart.
00:47:11I'll see you're not punished for this mischief.
00:47:16We're on one condition.
00:47:18Hmm?
00:47:19Sign this and you can go next.
00:47:23What is it?
00:47:28Job trades freedom.
00:47:39Don't suppose my teacos is still floating, is it?
00:47:49Keep the rope steady.
00:47:51There.
00:47:52The miller net.
00:47:53Ooh!
00:47:54All right, Miller.
00:47:56Where's the third boy?
00:47:58Why not the boy?
00:48:00Ooh!
00:48:01Come on, boy.
00:48:06Oh!
00:48:08Grab all of that!
00:48:11Oh!
00:48:13Oh!
00:48:14Keep away!
00:48:18Oh!
00:48:19Oh!
00:48:20Oh!
00:48:21Oh!

00:48:33Oh!
00:48:34Oh!
00:48:35Ruff! Ruff!
00:49:05I'm going to go.
00:49:06I'm going to go.
00:49:07I'm going to go.
00:49:35he's troubled by more than a chill I fear this is a matter of conscience if he's
00:49:46an honest lad Widow Dracot his mind will not rest until he's made amends for the
00:49:50harm he's done I was as much to blame sir go back to bed my dear how is he very
00:49:58poorly to bed young man there's nothing you can do here and how is job very shaken by
00:50:10his fright but this will revive him in the morning come on come on well that one at
00:50:18least seems to have suffered no ill effects from his ducking
00:50:28mom
00:50:58Oh, my God.
00:51:28Oh, my God.
00:51:58Speak with the boy.
00:52:00You must tell us the secret of the Mill Stream Head.
00:52:27How did you enter that cave?
00:52:37Job Trey has told us nothing.
00:52:39Thrust the brat till he speaks.
00:52:41Don't you understand, lad?
00:52:45If that vent chokes again and the river flows back to East Poli, none of us know how to recover it.
00:52:52These men saved your life, Leonard.
00:52:58You must tell them.
00:53:00We went in through Nick's pocket.
00:53:07Nick's pocket?
00:53:09There's no cave beyond Nick's pocket.
00:53:12There's a narrow passage behind a rock full.
00:53:15Nick's pocket, eh?
00:53:16Not Grim Billy.
00:53:18Bart Pendle, go back to your own village.
00:53:20This is West Poli business.
00:53:21Is it indeed?
00:53:23We're here to see you do what's right by us, Ned Jones.
00:53:29Restore the river to East Poli.
00:53:32Don't be no trouble.
00:53:33Ruin ourselves for the likes of you.
00:53:35Never.
00:53:36We'll never rest until the waters return to our side of the hill again.
00:53:39Nick's pocket is in the parish of West Poli, and you have no rights there at all.
00:53:44The waters of the earth be as much ours as yours.
00:53:47You'd best go now, East Poli.
00:53:50It's impossible for any man to consider which of two villages is most worthy to have water.
00:53:56There's more people in our parish.
00:53:58Tell East Poli that the course of the river was only altered for a moment by some meddlesome boys.
00:54:04It was a piece of mischief, which nature is now repaired.
00:54:09There's more to this business than nature, old man.
00:54:20The river is now on its proper course, and it must stay there.
00:54:23They could expect trouble from that quarter.
00:54:26They contemplate some violent remedy.
00:54:28There's little love lost for young Greycott in the village now.
00:54:31That stupid prank of his could cause trouble between East and West Poli long after you and I are dead and gone.
00:54:39The river is now on its own.
00:55:03Sir, please, sir?
00:55:04Wait!
00:55:05Please, sir!
00:55:06He's gone, sir.
00:55:08Gone? Who's gone?
00:55:11Stephen, sir, my cousin, while we worked in the yard.
00:55:15Oh, well, in his weakened state, he'll not get far.
00:55:18I think he's gone to Nick's pocket.
00:55:36I think he's gone.
00:56:06Let's go.
00:56:36Conscience. Conscience.
00:56:46Conscience.
00:56:52Conscience.
00:57:06Come and play for you.
00:57:16Steven!
00:57:18No! Wait!
00:57:21You stay here.
00:57:36is he dead
00:57:48I'm sorry you lost your stick sir
00:58:03oh it's of no importance
00:58:05master Dracott
00:58:07I shall return in the morning to collect it
00:58:09is it quite safe?
00:58:11oh yes the roof of the cave has
00:58:13sunk in completely
00:58:15there'll be no more human interference
00:58:17with the river I'm quite certain
00:58:19of that
00:58:23it's only by the merest chance lad
00:58:25that you too are not buried under that hill
00:58:29well your courage is praiseworthy no one disputes that
00:58:31but you see
00:58:33you see the risks that follow
00:58:35when people go out of their way
00:58:37to meddle with what they don't understand
00:58:43but then of course
00:58:45that's only the opinion
