00:00Thank you very much.
00:35Middling.
00:38Flat bottom if you've got it.
00:45What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:47Helping.
00:48No, you're not. You can't.
00:50I said you wanted help with the wall.
00:52Aye. Not with the putting. Sorting's all you're good for.
00:56Sorting?
00:57Big, small, midlands, funny-shaped ones.
01:01You start off sorting, then picking.
01:03After three or four years, you get to the putting.
01:05Aye. Then you get to the putting.
01:07Three or four years?
01:08Listen, farming's a way of life.
01:11It's in us bones.
01:13You've got to live it to know it.
01:14These who have lived it.
01:15It's in us bones.
01:15Is that my voice you was meant to be doing, then?
01:19Your cheeky stone, sir.
01:21Come on, you've been promoted to picking.
01:23Aye.
01:24Our picking.
01:25Have you been to the stable to check on Joan and the Littlin?
01:27That's exactly where I'm off to next.
01:29Good luck, James.
01:31I think I can manage to pick up a few rocks.
01:33The stones, they're not rocks you're picking up.
01:36The stones.
01:37Stones.
01:38Make sure you give her plenty of...
01:39Plenty of hair.
01:40I know.
01:43Rounded midland.
01:45Right.
01:46Rounded.
01:48Here we go.
01:50This one looks about right.
01:52Perfect.
01:54Are you kidding me?
01:57Come and see this.
02:02Come on, Rosie.
02:02Can we take the baby to see the pony?
02:05Come on, Jimmy, lad.
02:06Let's go.
02:07I saw that, Dad.
02:11Aye, I've got neighbours to think of.
02:13They're bloody laughing stock.
02:18Morning, Alice.
02:21Taff.
02:25Isn't she adorable?
02:27She's getting cheeky.
02:29Maybe that's what we should call her.
02:31I still think we should call her Coco.
02:33Coco and Candy folk will think we're running a blooming sweet shop.
02:37I can be her grandmother.
02:39Still can't believe it.
02:40It's all down hill from now on, lass.
02:42This came for you.
02:44It's from nursing college.
03:01You got in.
03:03I got in.
03:04She got in.
03:17Thank you, Mrs. Hall.
03:20Very good.
03:27Mr. Farnham, I have a little request.
03:29Oh?
03:30Yes.
03:30I'd like to request a leave to go to Edward's.
03:34Mary's first birthday's coming up.
03:37Weekend after next.
03:39I see.
03:42Would that be all right?
03:44Yes, of course.
03:45I'll be sure to make you a couple of pies.
03:48Hopefully that'll see you through.
03:49I coped perfectly well before when you weren't here.
03:51I won't need your pies.
03:52Mrs. H.
03:54I'm in dire straits.
03:55I'm going riding with Charlotte later.
03:57I fished down my britches and, well, look.
04:01Possibly not the beautiful Yorkshire view she had in mind.
04:04Would you like me to put a stitch in them?
04:06That's possible.
04:07Of course it is.
04:09Also, do either of you have the foggiest idea about playing croquet?
04:13I believe when one plays on horseback it's known as polo.
04:15No, it's for tomorrow.
04:17The general's croquet lunch.
04:18Well, you'll excel at half of that.
04:20I'd like him to think I'm not a complete Neanderthal.
04:23I'll see what I can think of.
04:25You're a wonder.
04:26Have me moment.
04:27And this man fought a war?
04:29Won a war.
04:31James, cutting it a little fine this morning, don't you think?
04:34I bet you're just finishing your breakfast.
04:36To be early is to be on time.
04:37To be on time is to be late.
04:38Cop of tea.
04:39Please.
04:40Out of the question.
04:41Our work appointments call.
04:43Onwards to work we go.
04:48Mrs. Stokes and Hilda?
04:55Oh, here.
04:56Where's the goat?
04:58Oh, well, she's lame.
05:00And you came all the way here to tell me that without her?
05:03It's not quite as simple as that, Mr. Farren.
05:06Then.
05:13Oh, what's on there?
05:14If you want me to look at her, you'll have to help me catch her.
05:17All right, you are.
05:20Come here.
05:21Come here at once.
05:22Oh, heavens.
05:25Lane.
05:25That's not lame.
05:26I could have sworn I saw her this morning with her dodgy leg.
05:30James?
05:31Tristan?
05:31Mr. Farren.
05:33Mrs. Holt, this is not a laughing matter.
05:35I need James and Tristan to come out and help me here pronto.
05:37Oh.
05:38Listen, Thomas's Hospital London.
05:45Sounds right posh, that, doesn't it?
05:48That's why Florence Nightingale set up the first training school for nurses.
05:51Did you hear that, Dad?
05:52Aye.
05:54Florence Nightingale?
05:55Ain't that something, eh?
05:57Oh, aye.
05:58Ignore him.
05:59But we don't even know who Florence Nightingale is.
06:02Oh, of course I really do.
06:03It says here, your registration date.
06:06It's in three weeks' time.
06:09Three weeks?
06:11I could call up and see if I can defer.
06:14Oh, you can't do that.
06:16Yeah.
06:16You haven't got a telephone.
06:18But she doesn't want to lose her place, Dad.
06:19Well, if it's leaving you in the lurch, I could ask.
06:22Maybe they'll keep my spot until next year.
06:24No, there's no telling they'll be willing to do that.
06:26No, it's all right.
06:27There's no need to fret.
06:28Gives us plenty of time to get you sorted, eh?
06:30Pass us that pad and pen.
06:32What for?
06:32A list.
06:34We'll write everything down and we'll cross it off as we go.
06:36That way we'll be sure not to miss anything.
06:43Get off.
06:45Get off.
06:47Mrs Stokes, there is no sign of lameness in this goat.
06:51Are you sure, Mr Farnham?
06:53Having finally concluded my examination
06:55and bearing in mind her antics in the square,
06:57I'm quite sure.
06:58Hey, well, I'm sorry to have wasted your time.
07:03No time wasted.
07:04We're not a charity.
07:05See Mrs Hall about my consultation fee.
07:08Come on.
07:09Thank you all for coming
07:20to my little sister.
07:23Off to save lives in the big city.
07:26We'll miss you.
07:27And London, you're very lucky to have her.
07:29Yeah.
07:30Congratulations, Jenny.
07:31Oh, well, they're not, thank you for it, mind.
07:34They're not what they like down there.
07:37Miserable so-and-sos.
07:38Oh, like home from home, then.
07:41Have you ever been to London, Richard?
07:43Nope.
07:44Won't want to either.
07:46Especially now it's been bombed out.
07:47Thanks for that, Dad.
07:49Jenny'll be all right.
07:50She'll make friends in no time.
07:52That was certainly my experience of basic training.
07:54Camarady with the lads.
07:56Going out to the dance halls.
07:57There'll be no dance halls.
07:58Yes, there was a little place called the Blue Lagoon
08:00I used to frequent in my younger days.
08:02Would you mind?
08:03Mixed clientele, but something for everyone
08:05if you catch my drift.
08:06There'll be no catching of any drifts.
08:09Dad, I've been to dances before.
08:11Not London dances, you haven't.
08:12Come on, Richard, you can't keep it locked up forever.
08:14I look forward to seeing you
08:15when your Rosie's leaving home.
08:19Jenny's not leaving home.
08:24What?
08:25Well, you're not, are you?
08:26You're going to nursing college
08:27and then you're coming back.
08:29I haven't given it much thought.
08:32Yes, you see, the fledgling spreads its wings
08:34and flies the nest
08:35and all you can do is hope it doesn't get
08:36plucked out of the air by some passing eagle.
08:39Or worse, come back like my brother.
08:40Ow!
08:41You've done a lovely job with his cake, Alan.
08:44Oh, thank you.
08:47When are you going to see little Mary?
08:49Wake on Sunday.
08:50Oh, bet you can't wait.
08:51I can't.
08:52I'm really looking forward to seeing her.
08:54She'll have changed so much.
08:57This cake is nice.
08:58How long are you going for?
09:00None.
09:00Till the birthday cake runs out, I should imagine.
09:04What will you do without her, Siegfried?
09:05Carry on.
09:09As I always have.
09:25I'm very impressed with your riding.
09:34You say that like I wasn't clinging on
09:36for dear life the entire time.
09:38You're still coming to lunch tomorrow, aren't you?
09:40Absolutely.
09:41Love a croquet lunch.
09:43As long as you're no Aunt Emma.
09:45What?
09:45Is she hopeless?
09:46It's what you call a dull player?
09:49Yeah, of course.
09:50Of course.
09:51No.
09:52No one's ever called me Aunt Emma.
09:54I rather thought not.
09:57So, does General Beauvoir know I'm coming as your, um...
10:01your paramour?
10:03Oh, is that what you are?
10:04Yes.
10:05Ah.
10:06Although I'm not entirely sure what one is, actually.
10:10I don't need my father to approve of my choice of paramour.
10:13It's been tried.
10:15Well, not with a vet, I suspect.
10:17Once he spends some time with you away from the stables,
10:20he'll be fine.
10:22Wait till he gets an eyeful of me
10:23whacking the ball through the posts.
10:26Hoops.
10:28Precisely.
10:30So, Jenny, is there much preparatory reading?
10:33They sent a list of books.
10:35And Mr Farnham could lend you some of his books.
10:37Could happen.
10:38Human anatomy is a bit different.
10:40Aye.
10:42Where will you be staying?
10:43I'll find out when I get there.
10:46What?
10:47Oh, you'll just knock on London's door and say,
10:49hello, I'm Jenny Alderson.
10:50Can I keep here for the night?
10:51I'm sure Jenny's thought about it.
10:53Oh, aye.
10:53Sounds like it.
10:54They sort the accommodation.
10:56At least I think they do.
10:59It'll be fine.
11:00Stop mithering and eat some more cake.
11:03We're worried about you.
11:04You don't need to be.
11:09Someone should go and check up on the horses.
11:12Excuse me.
11:12She's no idea what she's getting into.
11:24She imagines I'll just roll out the red carpet for her like she's dick-blooming Whittington.
11:29Helen.
11:33I had to make a list.
11:34Have a look at the state of that.
11:37Welly's socks seem sensible so far.
11:40Yeah, we're helping her to start with.
11:41Keep reading.
11:43Knickers times three.
11:45Helen, I'm not sure she'd be reading this.
11:47Three?
11:48Three pairs?
11:48I don't know what she thinks she'll be wearing the other four days of the week.
11:53Maybe she plans on turning them inside out.
11:57Don't.
11:58Sorry.
12:02Helen, she'll work it out.
12:06Are you all right?
12:07It's not me we need to be worried about.
12:11It's her.
12:14She's not ready.
12:16Not one bit of it.
12:17What are you doing?
12:42Canceled an omelette.
12:43Good use of stale bread.
12:44I was about to ask Mrs. Olaf for some proper lunch before I go out.
12:48Man cannot survive on cucumber sandwiches alone.
12:50Mrs. Hall is outside learning the rules of croquet for your benefit.
12:53Not really.
12:54You don't need to bother her every time you want anything.
12:56She's not at our beck and call.
12:58We could all just share the load a little more.
13:00As long as you don't expect me to eat that.
13:03How do you like your eggs, sir?
13:04Oh, incinerated.
13:05I'm quite capable of preparing a meal.
13:08I was in the army.
13:08They used to teach you to look after yourself once upon a time.
13:11Oh, it's burning.
13:12Well, just now it's burning because you distracted me.
13:14Are you sure you don't want me to ask Mrs. Hall?
13:16Oh, I'm perfectly fine.
13:31Mrs. Hall?
13:33Let's give this croquet business a quick go, shall we?
13:37I got you this from the library, no?
13:39Nice.
13:48I want it.
13:50Another wheel.
14:03What?
14:04All ready?
14:27You've packed everything.
14:28All done.
14:29I did the list like you said.
14:31You can check it.
14:31Everything's crossed off.
14:34I didn't want you worrying.
14:37Writing it all down really helped.
14:39That's what I'm here for.
14:41The only thing was the towels.
14:42I wasn't sure which to take.
14:44Oh, I'll sort that out.
14:45Have you been down the stables?
14:48Er, no, not yet.
14:49Well, I'd better go then.
14:50All right, sir.
15:02Er, strike.
15:03What?
15:04You went to swing the ball and you tapped it.
15:06Well, I didn't mean to.
15:07It doesn't matter whether you're meant to or not.
15:08It says here that's a strike.
15:09I was only getting into position.
15:11Rules are rules.
15:12How many people are you expecting at this do, then?
15:19I'm not sure.
15:20With any luck, I'll just fade into the background.
15:24Really?
15:25That's the plan.
15:27Head down and try and make it out of there with my dignity intact.
15:31Well, they're no better than you.
15:32Much as this practice has helped, Mrs H, I can assure you they are a lot better than me.
15:37I'm saying they might have a big house and servants and the like, but they're not better people.
15:43Yeah, I know that.
15:49What was that?
15:52Kristen?
15:53Sorry, Mr Farner, we've got a bit carried away with this croquet practice.
15:57Oh, well, not to worry.
15:59These things happen.
16:01Shall I clear that up for you?
16:02No, no, I'll do it.
16:04No, there's no trouble.
16:05I'll go and get the dustpan and brush.
16:07Some way it's not right.
16:14What do you mean?
16:15Well, he hardly batted an eyelid.
16:18Enjoy it while it lasts, I say.
16:22Have a look at the girl.
16:23Go.
16:25Okay.
16:28Yes!
16:29What did I tell you?
16:30You just have to be your charming self.
16:37Jenny's almost ready, I see.
16:40What about you?
16:43What about me?
16:43Now, sometimes our greatest qualities can be our greatest challenges.
16:53Go on.
16:54It's natural you don't want to lose her.
16:57You've been a mum to Jenny for most of her life.
16:59It'll be a big wrench.
17:00When I left home, my mum wasn't at all pleased.
17:06You're not about to compare me to your mother?
17:09It was hard for her, though.
17:12It was hard for me, too.
17:15I want Jenny to go, but only if she's ready.
17:17No-one's ever ready, are they?
17:22I wasn't.
17:24But it led to the greatest adventure of my life.
17:27I met you.
17:36Dolls.
17:37Dolls.
17:42Oh.
17:42Oh.
17:47It was my mum's.
18:17Her mum's before that, and her mum's before that.
18:20Each patch represents a different moment in our lives.
18:24What's this one?
18:26Mum and Dad's wedding.
18:28Oh.
18:30My grandma sewed that one on.
18:33Oh.
18:34And then my mum did the last one for our Jenny Wren.
18:38There.
18:41Oh.
18:43James, I need you in the stable.
18:46Hurry up, lad.
18:47That were Mrs Stokes on the telephone.
18:58Her Hilda's still lame.
18:59She wants you to go and have a look at her.
19:03She really did seem quite insistent.
19:06Of course.
19:06Right, well, I'll get on with the lunch.
19:10Oh, no need.
19:10I've eaten.
19:11You've eaten?
19:11Yes.
19:12What have you eaten?
19:13Sardines.
19:14Wait, you don't want to cook lunch?
19:16No, I don't want to trouble you.
19:19Mr Farnon, is everything all right?
19:22Yes.
19:23You're sure?
19:26Without question.
19:28Right you are.
19:30Oh, Tris, you look very smart.
19:32When are you going to this croquet luncheon?
19:34Soon.
19:35Well, be sure to take the Beauvoir's bill with you.
19:38Sorry?
19:39For treating Charlotte's horse.
19:41You want me to go there with the bill?
19:43He's got it.
19:43No, I can't do that.
19:45Yes, you can.
19:46I'm their guest.
19:47If you must fraternise with the clientele, let it not be at the expense of the business.
19:53Then you're the model of professionalism, I suppose.
19:59I take it you won't want lunch either, if you're off out.
20:02Au contraire, Mrs Hall.
20:03I need to keep up my strength for today.
20:05Good.
20:07Glad someone still needs me services.
20:14Is it something serious?
20:17She does feel a bit warm.
20:27Is it pneumonia?
20:29Lungs sound fine, so it's not pneumonia.
20:32Good girl.
20:35Her udder is hot and swollen.
20:39It could be because the fool stopped feeding, so it could be mastitis.
20:43We need to draw the udder to check.
20:51Aye.
20:51There are clots.
20:53She has mastitis.
20:55We need to strip out the milk.
20:58Finish me some warm water, please.
21:00Aye.
21:01She's been in a lot of pain, won't she?
21:03I'm afraid so.
21:04Oh, poor love.
21:07We should have caught that sooner, shouldn't we, eh?
21:10I'm sorry.
21:12I'm sorry.
21:13I'm sorry.
21:13Thank you, Derek.
21:35Well, I could get used to this chauffeur business.
21:38Only problem, he wouldn't stop at the drovers.
21:41He was under strict instructions.
21:44Look at you.
21:46How did you defeat the Nazis?
21:47With dashing good looks.
21:49Do you think the same will work on your father?
21:51Any strategy that works is fine.
21:53How about running fast in the opposite direction?
21:56Not that one.
21:58Yes, that would have been the best of Mrs. Weldon.
22:00Undeniably.
22:01Captain Farnan.
22:03Somewhat overdressed for the stables, aren't you?
22:05He's not here to see Philbrick.
22:07You know very well that Tristan is my guest.
22:12Lord Neville Gladwin.
22:13Owns everything from Rook Hill down to the river.
22:16Captain Tristan Farnan.
22:19Bet.
22:20That is it.
22:20Spent a lot of time with your arm up a cow's backside, I shouldn't wonder.
22:25Remind me not to shake hands with you.
22:28I must say, I'm looking forward to playing some croquet.
22:32Don't worry.
22:32I'm no Aunt Edna.
22:34Emma.
22:34Emma.
22:35Croquet?
22:35I hardly think so.
22:37Not with these ground conditions.
22:40Not to worry.
22:42It gives you boys a chance to get to know one another better.
22:50Mrs. Stokes?
23:09Hello?
23:10Hello?
23:10Hello?
23:12Hello?
23:16God's sake.
23:23Oh God.
23:25This way, Mr. Farnan.
23:31What's she doing now then?
23:35She's doing well.
23:36But she'll be tender.
23:38A pituitary injection will help let the milk go down.
23:41She'd be easier to strip out.
23:43The foal will get weak if she don't feed.
23:45I just said she'll be tender.
23:47It's not fair.
23:47Well technically...
23:48You can't force the foal on her.
23:50It's hard work being a mam, isn't it, eh, girl?
23:56But you've got to try.
23:58Even when it hurts.
24:00Especially when it hurts.
24:03I think we might be getting somewhere.
24:05What happened?
24:06Oh nothing, love.
24:07Just a bit of a to-do with her piping, that's all.
24:10James is helping her out.
24:12Let's get the foal on the other teat.
24:14It won't be as painful.
24:17Alright, go on.
24:20Let it go.
24:25Come on, that's it.
24:28That's it.
24:34Come on, go.
24:35Come on, that's it.
24:38That's it.
24:39Easy.
24:41Easy.
24:42Can I try?
24:50It's alright.
24:55She's your little girl, don't you see?
24:58You don't want her going hungry and being sad, do you?
25:01You want her big and strong.
25:02That's it.
25:19You take care of her.
25:22Good girl.
25:22You've got to let her go.
25:47I know, love.
25:49I know we do.
25:49I suppose we may slowly see things return to normality now.
26:06God knows we've had to make do on men long enough.
26:08My great hope is that we get the opera back.
26:13Losing the Royal Opera House during wartime was an absolute tragedy.
26:17I think most Londoners needed a dance hall more than they needed some marbling Italians, daddy.
26:22One of the great institutions of our nation, the ROH.
26:26Absolutely.
26:29I mean, what have we been fighting for if not, um...
26:34Handel.
26:37A German.
26:39Out for billiards, General.
26:41Why don't you give Tristan a game?
26:43No, no.
26:44No, no, Neville's been waiting a while, sir.
26:46Oh, nonsense.
26:47Be my guest.
26:48Show us what you're made of.
26:50Set them up.
26:51Where's the rest of the balls?
27:10You don't have the first idea how to play, do you?
27:13He already thinks I'm a peasant.
27:15I have no intention of confirming it beyond all doubt.
27:18There's three balls, two white cue balls, one with a black spot on it.
27:24The red goes on that spot.
27:26Right.
27:28Let's give them a good pasting, shall we?
27:34I'm sorry, Mrs Stokes.
27:35I've done some unusual things in my time as a vet, but...
27:38Ten more minutes.
27:39Then, if I stay in this position a moment longer, I'll never get up again.
27:43Look, there's the...
27:45She is curry in our front, my footh.
27:50So she is.
28:00Shake a leg.
28:01We shall be here all day.
28:02Oh, damn.
28:15Well, that's points to you.
28:17How much of the General's whiskey have you had, Father?
28:22So, I imagine you never had much choice other than to go into the family business.
28:26No, I enjoy spending time with wild, untamed creatures, but it's not just about my brother.
28:33I like the animals, too.
28:43Oh, bad luck.
28:44I suppose it's about what you're born to, isn't it?
28:53Money's not the be-all and end-all, Father.
28:56All I'm saying is it takes a certain disposition.
29:01Great shot.
29:04Red's gone down twice from the spot, goes to the middle.
29:11Anyone would think you didn't know the game.
29:13Well, I've played plenty of bar billiards, but no one seems to have made that deliberately baffling.
29:18Well, why on earth didn't you say so, Mayor?
29:21I'm sorry, General.
29:22I don't know much about croquet or opera or where the Red Bull's supposed to go.
29:28But I do know a lot about sticking my hand up a cow's backside.
29:33The fee, sir, for saving Charlotte's horse.
29:37Good girl.
29:48Good girl.
29:50I've been looking for you.
29:53I've just been here.
29:56Willing this little lady better.
29:58She looks brighter than before.
30:00Hmm.
30:01Here's open.
30:02Helen.
30:05Helen.
30:07Yes?
30:09I can't do it.
30:11I can't go.
30:13Jenny, I'm not a nurse.
30:15I'm not a city girl.
30:17This is my home.
30:19I can't leave.
30:22Oh.
30:23You daft thing.
30:25I can't do it.
30:39Well?
30:40I don't believe it.
30:41You don't believe what?
30:43Poor Hilda has Shelley hoof.
30:44Shelley what?
30:46Hoof.
30:48The horn has started to come away from the hoof.
30:50It's formed a cavity which is filled with soil and dung.
30:53Why?
30:53Mrs. Stokes, I apologise.
30:57Well, that's all well and good, Mr. Fowler.
30:59But I reckon it's not me.
31:01You should be apologising to him.
31:05Hilda.
31:07I'm sorry for not seeing this sooner.
31:10Do you accept his apology, Hilda Love?
31:14Well, to be fair on Mr. Fowler,
31:15it was you plain silly beggars pretending everything was all right
31:18when it clearly wasn't.
31:20Can't quarrel with that.
31:21Prancing around like a rat, silly old goat.
31:26She does, I'll accept your apology.
31:28It's all good.
31:30Goats sometimes behave like this, Mrs. Stokes,
31:33pretending they're not hurt in order to protect themselves.
31:36Aye, that's right.
31:38Well, in my book, that's a ruddy foolish thing to do.
31:47Must have taught you well.
31:50Nice and sturdy.
31:52No gaps.
31:54Still been stood long after I've gone late.
31:56Give James to thank for that.
32:00James did that.
32:02Picking and putting.
32:08Jenny says she's not going now.
32:10Because of me?
32:11Because she's scared.
32:13She's looking for a reason not to.
32:14When your mother passed, I just buried my head in its hand.
32:22Left you to bring up your sister, doing what I couldn't.
32:27I put far too much on your young shoulders.
32:29Far too much.
32:31They say it like Jenny was a burden.
32:33She wasn't.
32:34Far from it.
32:37She was the reason I got up every morning.
32:40The reason I were able to live again.
32:44You had plans and dreams of your own, though, didn't you?
32:47It's not what you wanted.
32:48And look at what I got instead, eh?
32:51James.
32:52Children.
32:53I grew up closer to Jenny than any sister could have.
32:56Aye.
32:57But still,
32:59I appreciate it.
33:04And James definitely did this wall, did he?
33:13Mm-hmm.
33:15Do you want to do it rest to them?
33:21The wrong bloody job.
33:30All right, Jenny, then.
33:32Oh, these do look better.
33:33You haven't called me that in years.
33:35No.
33:36I like it.
33:38Reminds me of...
33:40You can say it.
33:44Mum.
33:46That's what she always used to call me.
33:51You know what she'd say?
33:53Be brave.
33:55My Jenny Wren.
33:57That she would.
33:57You can leave this place, but it'll always run through your veins.
34:04But I'd miss you all.
34:06So much.
34:07Yes, but you're not to worry about this place.
34:09Or Dad, or the children.
34:11And that's being worried about London.
34:13Well, I think London's the one that should be worried.
34:16I don't know anything about it.
34:18I don't know where anything is.
34:20I don't know anyone.
34:21It's what adventures are for, isn't it?
34:24Discovering all them things.
34:26You never got your adventure.
34:31I know you're not my mum.
34:34Not really.
34:34But you are.
34:38You are.
34:43What else are Wrens meant to do, eh?
34:45But flourish and fly.
34:48What about Dad?
34:50He's pleased for you.
34:52Deep down.
34:54Where it matters.
34:55Very deep down.
34:56I know he is.
34:59He came up with a name for her.
35:01Florence.
35:03After Florence Nightingale.
35:04It's perfect.
35:07Took us long enough.
35:07Yeah.
35:08You certainly made an impression.
35:10I'm so sorry.
35:11I don't know why I thought I could swing this.
35:15I belong in the stables, not in there.
35:16You belong right here with me.
35:42I made a fool of myself.
35:44You did.
35:46It was wonderful.
35:48I do know about putting my hand up a cow's backside.
35:52Perhaps not my finest repartee.
35:56I think we had a lucky escape.
35:58Imagine the damage you could have done with a croquet mallow.
36:01I practiced.
36:01You didn't.
36:02I bloody practiced.
36:02That's so sweet.
36:04I was ready to lie convincingly about croquet.
36:06Okay, Aunt Edna.
36:11Captain Farnon.
36:16Sir?
36:17I have your fee.
36:23I'm just waiting for the car to come round.
36:25Oh, I don't want you to misunderstand me, Farnon.
36:29Captain.
36:30There's no one I'd trust more with my horses.
36:33He trusts you with his horses.
36:35Praise indeed.
36:38I lost her once before, I'm sure she told you, to the Auxiliary Territorial Service in Italy.
36:46I wasn't lost.
36:47You could have been.
36:50I wanted the world for her once.
36:53Now, I just want her home.
36:55And I want her happy.
36:59I like seeing her happy.
37:05Next time, you teach me bar billiards.
37:14That's it.
37:15Play nicely, Jimmy.
37:16What's up, sir?
37:19Sewing me patch.
37:22Oh, that's lovely.
37:24It's Candy, Joan and the foal.
37:27I'm not sure it's as good as me mums, to be honest.
37:31They're two beautiful girls.
37:34Have you seen things?
37:35Where am I?
37:36It's just a wren.
37:39You're the son.
37:40Oh, hey-o.
37:57What have you got there?
37:58For the children.
38:00But might as well have them now.
38:01No point me hanging on to them.
38:03Isn't that kind?
38:05Excuse me, what did you say to your Auntie Jenny?
38:08Teh.
38:08You're very welcome.
38:10They're for both of you, though.
38:12To share.
38:16Here you are, Rosie.
38:19Aw, good boy.
38:22Rosie's gonna love those.
38:23I've got something for you and all.
38:27Me?
38:28Don't know if we can quite call it a present.
38:31Or a question.
38:32Right.
38:34How about you come with me?
38:36To London?
38:37What?
38:38Just to settle me in.
38:38You don't need me.
38:41I want you to come.
38:43It can be our adventure together.
38:49It's all right, Barmy, look.
38:55He suggested it to me.
39:06Hey, Rosie.
39:06London, eh?
39:10Yeah.
39:11For a few weeks.
39:13What did you say?
39:14I told her I couldn't go.
39:16Leaving you on your own with the children.
39:22You should go.
39:25I mean it.
39:27It'd be good for you both.
39:31Well, what will you do?
39:32I'll look after myself well enough.
39:33Don't you worry about that.
39:36And the children?
39:40One each.
39:42Jimmy.
39:44Rosie.
39:46You just promised me one thing.
39:48Hey?
39:49On this wee trip, you're not gonna fall in love with some handsome London hero soldier and run away with him, are you?
39:55Well, I hadn't thought about that.
39:57But now you mentioned it.
39:58Oh, my God.
39:58No, stop it.
39:59Stop it.
40:00Stop it.
40:00Stop it.
40:00I'm kidding.
40:01I'm kidding.
40:03Oh, all right.
40:04All right.
40:05Promise I won't come running off with anyone.
40:07What's all this?
40:16I'm sewing dresses for our Mary and little Rosie.
40:19Oh, lovely.
40:20I've been trying to thread this needle so long my eyes have gone funny.
40:25Give it to me.
40:26Your eyes are worse than mine.
40:31I see what it is.
40:32Eh, you're afraid.
40:34Oh, my egg.
40:35Scissors, please.
40:35I've just been dealing with Hilda.
40:39It's a rather curious case.
40:41The goat?
40:42Yes.
40:42It seems that she's reluctant.
40:48Hilda has Shelley hoof.
40:51It's a very painful condition.
40:55But she's reluctant to show it.
40:57Doesn't want to upset her keeper.
41:00So she keeps it in, which only makes the condition worse.
41:05Oh, nearly.
41:07Next time.
41:09Here's hoping.
41:11And I sometimes think that's a coping mechanism not entirely alien to the human condition.
41:22I see.
41:23Do you?
41:24A little bit.
41:27Not really.
41:33Hilda has Shelley hoof.
41:34Right.
41:35It can be very painful.
41:39Very painful indeed.
41:42Mr. Fannan, are you reluctant to admit you've been feeling a little bit afraid?
41:48When you go to Edwards, are you coming back?
41:53Because I'd rather just know.
41:55I'll only be gone for a few days.
42:03Right.
42:05Good, then.
42:09What am I doing this now?
42:11I've been with you, Mrs. Hall.
42:12I can't see a bloody thing.
42:13Jenny.
42:14Jenny.
42:15Jenny.
42:15Jenny.
42:16All right.
42:17It's done.
42:18It's beautiful.
42:19It's beautiful.
42:24It's beautiful.
42:25It's beautiful.
42:27It's time to sew your little patch of the world.
42:34It's beautiful.
42:35It's beautiful.
42:37It's beautiful.
42:39And what are you doing?
42:39It's beautiful.
42:47Over to you.
42:49Me?
42:51You're an Alderson girl, aren't you?
42:53It's time to show your little patch of the world.
42:58What?
43:02It's just...
43:04I don't quite know what that is yet.
43:06There's no rush.
43:11I'll save it for when you're ready.
43:13Hang on.
43:15Let's not fold it away, though, eh?
43:17Let these two keep it warm for me.
43:20Till I'm ready.
43:30Let me know if you need help.
43:31Will do.
43:32What's this?
43:38Telephone.
43:39Dad?
43:40Really?
43:41I thought you said they were witchcraft.
43:45You can go up in that fish face.
43:48I just...
43:49I can't believe it.
43:51Believe it?
43:55This is going to make my life so much easier.
43:56Not just for you.
43:58For our Jenny here.
44:00So she can telephone me from that there London every Sunday night.
44:04Without fail.
44:05Of course she did.
44:06Of course.
44:07Alec
44:08And we're back in Darabit next Thursday at 9,
44:22And we're back in Darabee next Thursday at 9.
