00:00The End
00:50Hey, up! Over here!
00:57Coming!
01:06Hello there.
01:09Travelers, eh?
01:11Yes, from the West Country.
01:12Healthy, are you?
01:14Yes.
01:16Are you?
01:18Nothing a good fill of shag wouldn't cure.
01:22We're looking for a man called Preston.
01:24Greg Preston.
01:26We heard he'd come this way. He's probably heading for the coast.
01:28Little fella, is he?
01:30Baldy?
01:3150 or so?
01:34No, he's in his 30s.
01:35Six feet tall and fair.
01:37Nah, not this fella.
01:39Bald, on the short side.
01:43Traders?
01:44Let's say missionaries.
01:47In that case, you should have some fun with them mill folks.
01:50Eh, Larry?
01:51Yeah.
01:52What mill folk?
01:53See for yourself.
01:55Over there.
01:59Hey, would you believe?
02:02Mechanization.
02:04One thing.
02:06You'll find them quite disarming.
02:29Well, come in peace.
02:31Your guns, please.
02:33Sorry?
02:34No guns here.
02:35Hence disarming.
02:37I'll take your guns.
02:39Thanks.
02:40Right.
02:45Welcome in peace.
02:47Thanks.
02:49We have this rule about guns.
03:00And yours?
03:06Be locked safely away till you're ready to leave.
03:10Okay.
03:12Welcome in peace.
03:15Jim says you're looking for someone.
03:17That's right.
03:18Name of Heston?
03:20Preston.
03:21He's a tall, fair chap.
03:23Not been through here.
03:26Pity.
03:28Staying long?
03:30Well, that depends.
03:31Just overnight.
03:33Fair enough then.
03:35Book down in the barn.
03:37Come on, I'll show you the way.
03:51Here we are then.
04:05There is a proposal I'd like to discuss with your leader sometime.
04:10Out of luck, mate.
04:12Sorry?
04:13We don't reckon seniority and that no more here.
04:17Well, your committee, the whole community, however you make decisions.
04:23Hello.
04:25Hello.
04:25I'm Charles Vaughan.
04:27This is Jenny Richards.
04:28Hubert Goss.
04:29I'm Frank Garner.
04:30Welcome to you all.
04:31You're best off inside, Frank.
04:33Raw day like this.
04:34And so do these good people.
04:36Henry lacks finesse as a host.
04:38Why not come inside the house for a little comfort?
04:40Oh, this'll do fine.
04:42No, no, no.
04:43They're off first thing in morning.
04:44Well, they need a good night's rest.
04:46What?
04:47What about a hot bath?
04:49Come on.
04:53Heya.
04:54What about the horses?
04:56The lad'll sort them.
04:57Not what I'm hailing, Walt.
05:01Valuable nags like these.
05:07Welcome in peace.
05:18Along here and on the right.
05:21In there.
05:37It's cosier than the bar.
05:40It's most hospitable.
05:42But there's a price on it.
05:47Oh.
05:49You see, for some time now, I've been very anxious.
05:56Oh, Henry, is the young lady comfortable?
06:07Why?
06:08Most anxious to...
06:11To...
06:13To show you the mill.
06:16Fine.
06:17It's quite an achievement.
06:19Yes, tremendous.
06:20Not mine, I hasten to add.
06:22Henry had it fixed up and running long before I got here.
06:24The first private enterprise venture to get started up after the death.
06:29Still the thrusting little capitalist I were in them days.
06:33But not now.
06:35We're squaring up on our priorities now.
06:38Eh, Frank?
06:39Well, no thanks to me.
06:41Like heck.
06:43And still somewhere to go.
06:45Oh, rubbish, Henry.
06:46Everything's fine here now.
06:48Anyway, tomorrow we'll give you the full initiation.
06:51Milling, sale setting, maintenance, the lot.
06:55Well, that's, er...
06:56That's very kind.
06:57I'd like to see you tonight, if I may.
06:59Oh, it's too late tonight, isn't it, Henry?
07:02The light's gone and, er...
07:03Anyway, that's swarming with rats after dusk.
07:06Scavenging around for the spill from the milling.
07:10We'll show it all to you tomorrow.
07:12Ah, yes, well, er...
07:14As it happens, we've got another job on for the morning.
07:18Little novelty we're hoping to interest you gentlemen in.
07:22Courtesy of the Greg Preston organization.
07:26Commonly known...
07:27As the GPO.
07:30There was a young couple who got wed.
07:32They lived as happy as anyone.
07:34And every night in their bed.
07:36They went rumpy bum bum curdy diddle them.
07:39In here.
07:45There's a bed for you in the house, you know.
07:47It's all the same to you.
07:48I was gonna shake down here.
07:48Keep an eye on the horses.
07:53And that's against the rules.
07:55Ah, have you thought for why?
07:56Well, for peace and love, brother Hubert.
08:00Peaceable they may seem to use, squire, but...
08:02But what?
08:03Well, for one.
08:04Where's their stock?
08:06They don't run no cattle sheep nor pigs up here, you know.
08:08Just a bunch of Satan's goats.
08:09And for two.
08:11They're a right shifty lot given to people some pride.
08:15Not a man's sake, Hubert.
08:15Oh, you can scoff.
08:17But will you wait till you hear their Chinese ideas?
08:19Chinese?
08:20And for three.
08:22They got a dark ear.
08:24Black as an old boot.
08:25Charles?
08:27In here, Jenny.
08:31Apparently the meal's ready.
08:33Oh, not for time.
08:34I'll just get me choppers round a good chump chop.
08:36Doesn't smell much like chops.
08:38Don't you recognise it?
08:41It's fairly familiar.
08:43It's curry, surely.
08:47You're right.
08:49I've quite forgotten.
08:51Come on.
08:56Wag food.
09:08Good.
09:09How are you?
09:10I'll have you.
09:11Good.
09:13Second lot coming up in a minute.
09:17Yes, I know, but I've got to serve the guests first.
09:20Okay.
09:21Here, food's improving, Blossom.
09:23Oh, thanks.
09:25Hello, Hubert.
09:27Not hungry?
09:28Whoa.
09:29Not everybody takes to our grubs straight off.
09:34Windy nosh for windmill people, eh?
09:39Who's this chap Preston you're after?
09:43He's my husband.
09:45He's just been to Norway on a trip.
09:48Why Norway?
09:50Hydroelectric power in near limitless supplies.
09:54Potential for re-establishing a light industry.
09:59Must be even get a refinery going again with oil piped in from the North Sea.
10:04Industrial revolution all over, eh?
10:08Hardly that.
10:09Norwegians have very big problems. Farming's hard there.
10:12They need food. Also technicians.
10:15Which you're planning to organize?
10:18Exactly.
10:19Once we've linked up with Greg.
10:21Sounds like we're the big enterprise. It's crucial.
10:25If that's how you rate your priorities.
10:29Try some of this curd cheese, Hubert. It's great with a chapati.
10:33I'll tell you a straight woman. I'm a man who likes to get his choppers into a nice bit of
10:37beef.
10:38Ah, well we've found that meat in the diet is bad for the temperament.
10:41It makes for aggression.
10:44I manage peaceful enough on it myself. Don't I, Jenny?
10:47Stop being fussy.
10:49What, me?
10:50Well, Rutler believes that cattle should only be for milk and for ploughing.
10:54eaten only by low caste peoples.
10:59Low what?
11:00Rutner means the untouchables, friend.
11:06Your priorities here are rather different, are they?
11:12Maybe we're all of us stood at like a crossroads.
11:15We must decide which way we should take.
11:19Is the choice ever so clear-cut?
11:21Well, it's up to us.
11:24You see, it's not here, Mr Vaughan.
11:27We've figured it out like a sort of a reincarnation.
11:33Sorry?
11:35Mankind died and has to be born again.
11:39Born again to a new life.
11:41And a better life.
11:43Look.
11:44After the death, we found this place.
11:47Got it going.
11:49No trouble.
11:50Only snag.
11:53We was a right bunch of cavemen.
11:56At each other's throats at the slightest thing.
11:59Moping, griping.
12:01Or else, downright broody.
12:04It's only a morale problem. You're not alone in that.
12:07Until our Frank pitches up.
12:09Just in time and all.
12:11Took us on, see.
12:13Sorted us out.
12:14How exactly?
12:16Got us talking.
12:18Pulling together.
12:19Oh, I only got a sort of therapy thing going.
12:24The real credit's due to Rutner.
12:32You reckon that's a right comedy turn, don't you?
12:36Whatever you believe, it's up to you.
12:38And our Rutner.
12:40What's it mean exactly?
12:42What?
12:43The, um, blob.
12:46Oh.
12:47Hindu prayer mark.
12:49Shows I've done my daily meditation.
12:51About what? Peace and love?
12:54It's more a mood, really.
12:56Frame of mind-like.
12:58Serenity.
12:59Tranquility.
13:00All that.
13:02I'm Rutner talking about.
13:04Sure.
13:05Plus the right nosh to help it along.
13:08And the fact that everything's due to fate.
13:10The death plague included.
13:12You mean...
13:13Predestined, wasn't it?
13:15Hence the way we try to live here.
13:18Sorry?
13:19See, it's just gotta be our destiny.
13:23Right?
13:25And all this from her?
13:28Seems shy.
13:30You wonder.
13:31She comes here from the Punjab at the age of 16
13:34to marry some bloke she'd never even set eyes on,
13:37and then bang, for death.
13:39You'd be shy.
13:41It's more as though...
13:42What?
13:44Serenity, you say?
13:45But to me, she seems almost...
13:48hostile.
13:49Frightened, that's all.
13:51Of strangers.
13:53Of us?
13:55Remember the hell of it all at first.
13:57The fear and privation.
14:00Folks weren't too Christian then.
14:03Particularly towards Asian women.
14:05One lot of apes actually stoned her, would you believe?
14:09They reckoned the plague started out east,
14:11and our Ratna was somehow to blame.
14:14Anyway, Frank brought her here to us.
14:18And you know how she sees him now?
14:21As Master G, as she calls him.
14:24As a guru.
14:26A holy man?
14:28Well, she worked it out from his birth date or something.
14:32She reckons that Frank is the reincarnation
14:35of the one and only Maharashtra G.
14:39How's that for devotion, then?
14:44I was with a personnel selection firm.
14:46What they used to call a headhunter.
14:48Oh, I see.
14:51Hence, you're being clued up on psychology,
14:53the, uh...
14:55the group therapy.
14:56Well, it was pretty ineffective till we found Ratna.
15:00How come?
15:02Well, she has her serenity
15:05and a more realistic sense of values.
15:11Well, because she sees everything as, what, predestined?
15:15Look, mate.
15:17Her people.
15:18They've had generations of plague and famine and that.
15:22They've learned to live with it.
15:24Survive regardless.
15:26Us?
15:27We're just beginners.
15:29Good night.
15:30Good night.
15:30Sleep well.
15:30Thanks.
15:31Tranquility, remember?
15:32I'll try.
15:42Please?
15:44What is it?
15:46I must beg to you.
15:48For us all.
15:50Beg?
15:52You must leave here.
15:54Most soon.
15:55We plan to leave first thing in the morning.
15:57Just as soon as Charles has got this telephone link fixed up.
16:00Achah.
16:02Why the rush?
16:04The Mr. Charles,
16:06he believes he sees the way.
16:08Sees how people must live.
16:10Oh, yeah.
16:11Man of vision.
16:13Your guru, no?
16:14No.
16:16Mine's, uh, taller.
16:17With a blonde halo.
16:20The Master G.
16:21He will wish to tell him much.
16:24Tell Charles?
16:25Show him a dream.
16:27Like water above the desert.
16:30He must not listen.
16:33Some hope.
16:35Must close his ears.
16:37Must only leave here.
16:40All right.
16:41But why?
16:43There is...
16:47danger.
16:49What?
16:54I told you we plan to leave first thing in the morning.
16:59So...
17:01if he will let you.
17:05Who?
17:07Why?
17:14But you can't just go around tilting at power stations.
17:19Oh.
17:19Oh, it's not all that quixotic.
17:21This enterprise of yours,
17:23you must broaden it.
17:25Establish some...
17:27new social organisation.
17:29Some alternative society.
17:32Oh, fine, fine.
17:33But, uh...
17:35What form?
17:37I mean...
17:38Peace and love.
17:40Fatalism and predestiny.
17:42All right.
17:43So it works for you here.
17:45Yes, it does.
17:46And I'm very pleased for you.
17:49But for...
17:49for us, for...
17:50for me, for...
17:51for the man in the street.
17:54It's just two way out.
17:58Time you were in your pit.
18:00Reckoning on an early start in the morning, aren't you?
18:05Good.
18:05Aye.
18:07You can't just leave it there, Henry.
18:09Convince him.
18:10No, no, no. Henry's right.
18:13I've got to stay alert for the wiles.
18:17Good night.
18:18Have a good sleep.
18:21Priorities.
18:22Right.
18:26Good night.
18:28Good night.
18:34And good riddance.
18:38He's right, Henry.
18:40Calling us hippies.
18:42No, but he's right for me.
18:45You must see that.
18:48A mad capitalist tear away?
18:52You're off your rocker, old friend.
19:08I'm sorry.
19:10Oh.
19:12Oh.
19:13Oh.
19:15Oh.
19:16Oh.
19:19Oh.
19:20Oh.
19:20Oh.
19:21Oh.
19:21Oh.
19:23Oh.
19:26What are you doing prying around?
19:28Please, I come to warn you.
19:30What about? Help with it.
19:31The horses.
19:32What about them?
19:33They are sick.
19:34They eat bad hay.
19:37Better go and fetch the governor.
19:38Master G?
19:39No, no. Master Vaughan.
19:49What is it, Hubert?
19:50Quivers. Your nag's the worst.
19:54They fevered?
19:55Ah, we're stuck here now.
19:59How? What happened?
20:02This most like.
20:06You, Spreex.
20:08Happened I scotched it before they got too much down inside them.
20:11No, but they don't look too well.
20:12So what's the score now?
20:14Well, if I get hold of some linseed oil, they'll be right as rain by tomorrow.
20:20Worse, they could have chose to kill them.
20:23Chosen? What do you mean?
20:25Well, it's by no accident.
20:26Is there a bit of poison?
20:28Well, none of the other nags in there is struck.
20:30Only ours.
20:33Why?
20:34I told you, didn't I?
20:36Wog ideas.
20:38Ah, she did say something last night.
20:40Who?
20:41Er, Ratner, the Indian woman.
20:43But it doesn't prove anything.
20:45Prove what, Jenny?
20:48I'm sorry about all this.
20:50Er, Ratner asked me to give you that.
20:59Linseed.
21:00Quite bright for a dark, isn't she?
21:03It must have been a bad truss of hay or something.
21:06Really?
21:08Well, anyway, one or two days delay will give us more chance to talk.
21:12If they'll let you.
21:13I beg your pardon?
21:15Your shadow.
21:17Right.
21:19Let's get this telephone hook up sorted out.
21:21And you could be on your way.
21:23You're joking.
21:24What do you mean?
21:26No horses.
21:28You tell them, Frank.
21:35Chaperones?
21:36I don't know what you're on about.
21:38No?
21:39Perhaps guards would be a better word.
21:41Look, friend, just watch it.
21:43Frank garner's like fresh air and sunlight to us.
21:47You don't want him polluted, is that it?
21:48What?
21:50Why should he want to poison our horses?
21:54You're bonkers.
21:55Am I?
21:56He's desperate to keep us at the mill now.
21:58Why?
21:59How many fancies a change of company?
22:01It's more than that.
22:03You reckon?
22:06He doesn't buy it, you know.
22:08Buy what? All your fatalism and predestiny stuff?
22:11Like you.
22:12He reckons it's a load of cobblers.
22:14So?
22:15Come on.
22:16Let's get on with this.
22:24Amazing.
22:25Please?
22:28A community of a dozen people.
22:30All British.
22:32And within a year you've converted them to vegetarians.
22:35Worshipping...
22:37Vishnu or Brahma or whoever.
22:39But they have not taken to our gods.
22:42Not a one.
22:43You must see, Jenny.
22:45Hinduism, it is not like your Christianity.
22:48More it is a way of life than a, how you call, a religion.
22:53Oh.
22:54Also, it was not with me to convert them.
22:58This was totally, 100% the wish of the Master G.
23:02But how?
23:03Always when we gather in the evening, he's asking questions.
23:08Asking and leading.
23:09A little here, a little there.
23:12And so we have come to it...
23:15Together.
23:18I see.
23:39I see.
23:39All right.
23:41I'll clip the red one into that one.
23:46Another black one into the one higher up.
23:48Careful!
23:50Look, mate.
23:52Tars out of the building site, wasn't I?
23:55What's the time?
23:58Just on four.
24:00All right. Come on down. We'll give it a try.
24:19Ha ha ha!
24:22Hello?
24:24Nothing.
24:26Don't say all that were for nowt.
24:28Hello!
24:29Hello, Pat!
24:31Charlie!
24:32Where are you?
24:33I'll tell you in a minute.
24:36Say hello to Henry here.
24:38He needs convincing.
24:42Hello?
24:43Psst!
24:44Hi!
24:46What is it?
24:49Do us a favor, girl.
24:51What?
24:52A quick kitchen job.
24:56Oh, Hubert, you wretched old man.
24:59A lead on Greg.
25:01Forget Greg.
25:03Come back here where you're wanted.
25:05Where you're more use.
25:06More what?
25:09Er, listen.
25:11We met someone who had news of Greg.
25:13And said he was going to the coast.
25:15Heading for the Norfolk coast.
25:17So what?
25:22We've got five more here from White Cross.
25:25Agnes is on the mend and she'll be coming here as soon as she's fit to travel.
25:29What?
25:31Pat, I'm sorry. I can't hear you.
25:32Tell Jenny that the kids are all right.
25:38Goodbye, Pat.
25:42Norfolk coast.
25:46Well, it's up to maximum range.
25:50In the absence of a good punchy battery.
25:53So we'll have to wait for the GPO connection then?
25:57I'm afraid so.
26:01Come on then.
26:03I'll show you something that really does work.
26:05The bill?
26:11What's this?
26:13Striking chain.
26:15Pull it and see.
26:19It's like putting her in gear.
26:21It closes the veins so the wind can get to work.
26:25No one would go without it.
26:27Start her turning.
26:29Right.
26:34Now, come and see her roll.
26:41It's marvellous.
26:43All this massive gearing in it is so gentle.
26:46And all automatic.
26:49The fantail out there keeps the sails square onto the wind.
26:53There's a governor to open the sail veins up a bit if she gets going too fast.
26:57All we do is set the stones for the required fineness of flour.
27:02Fill the harper.
27:03And leave her to it.
27:07What about the bearings?
27:09Made of bronze.
27:10Main one's right there.
27:12Now.
27:14This is the hoist to lift the grain sacks up to the floor below us.
27:18The stone floor.
27:20Come and see.
27:28We've found their records.
27:30Been 160 years of milling here.
27:32All but non-stop.
27:37Welcome in peace.
27:39Are you well?
27:40Aye, as well as may be after starting out at four this morning.
27:46Mike, customer.
27:48Settle them into the barn, will you?
27:49Yeah, it won't be a minute.
27:53The grain creeps down from the middle of the top grinding stone there.
28:09Just the governor?
28:11Aye.
28:13When it gets up too high, them two weights lift out with the centrifugal force.
28:19Operating that linkage up to the sails.
28:22Which opens up the shutter veins a bit to slow her down.
28:26It's ingenious.
28:28No credit to us.
28:32Welcome in peace.
28:33Your guns, please.
28:34You being funny, my lad?
28:35I'm sorry, sir. No guns. It's a rule here.
28:37Away you go, son.
28:41Sorry, friend, but all mill customers have to surrender their weapons.
28:44Oh, aye.
28:45Just while they're here.
28:46Shove off.
28:47It's our non-violence rule.
28:49Aye, and you know what you can do about that, don't you?
28:51Please.
28:53Listen, monkey.
28:54Do you think I'm soft in the head or something?
28:56Look, there's no danger.
28:57Oh, no.
28:59This is a hard wee world we live in, right?
29:02If you think I'm going to be stupid enough to hand over my gun to a shower of weirdo hippies,
29:06you've got another thing coming.
29:07Now, shove off!
29:09Mike!
29:16Come on, something's up!
29:22What the hell's going on?
29:32They're taking the train.
29:33It's the house!
29:35Where's Jenny?
29:36She's gone on the head.
29:37We'll take care of that.
29:38Right there.
29:38Go see what Jim's up to.
29:42Hey!
29:43Leave that chain there!
29:46Come on!
29:48No!
29:49You look stupid, my old bitch.
29:50No!
29:52No!
29:54No!
29:54No!
29:54No!
29:55No!
30:00Please, I beg you, not the covers.
30:02Here, brother, you plays your little games.
30:05Fine.
30:07Different set of rules for the rest of us.
30:09Listen, unless you give this a chance...
30:11Chance?
30:12This here's the only chance-getter now.
30:15Yeah!
30:28So what do we do now?
30:29You are the rule.
30:30You live by it.
30:32Christ!
30:33Gandhi!
30:34We're not the first, you know.
30:36You're joking.
30:38Men like that.
30:39They live by the gun.
30:41You can't reason with them.
30:43I mean, what if he goes mad and really kills someone?
30:45He won't, mate.
30:47Are you so damn sure?
30:48Never lost anyone yet.
30:55Where's Hubert?
30:56I fear he's attending to the demands of nature.
31:01Not that curry still?
31:03In a manner of speaking.
31:17Does this happen often?
31:19Not so much lately.
31:21You monkeys in there!
31:23You best get out here and fast.
31:27I'm warning yous.
31:28Don't think yous can play around with me.
31:32I'll give yous ten seconds to get out here and bring that chain with you.
31:37Or I'll put a torch to your precious mill.
31:40Burn it?
31:41Just bluff.
31:43You better be sure.
31:45Do you hear me in there?
31:47If not, well...
31:51That mill's unique.
31:53So is our community, Mr. Vaughan.
31:55Our beliefs.
31:57One.
31:58Two.
32:00Three.
32:02I mean it, monkeys.
32:06Five.
32:08Six.
32:09Hey, Mac!
32:10Aye, what is it?
32:11Here.
32:15Why don't we set off a display?
32:16Uh-huh.
32:18Aye, why not?
32:18You leave that flower where it is!
32:22Leave it!
32:25Shut your mouth, old man!
32:28Beliefs.
32:29You're just opting out.
32:32What?
32:35Someone could get killed any minute.
32:38And why?
32:39Because of this.
32:42Because you're abdicating authority.
32:44Charles, look.
32:46There's Hubert.
32:52Right.
32:53In there.
32:58Right, that's it.
33:00Hang on.
33:02To hell with peace.
33:12Drop it, agent.
33:14You here?
33:17Oh, yeah!
33:18What the?

33:42Oh, yeah.
33:43and you can finish it.
33:48Hand it over or he gets it.
33:52No one gets anything.
33:58Just hand it over, mate.
34:01Get back!
34:04There's a lot of fuss and noise over a sack of flour.
34:17You okay?
34:19Thanks to you.
34:21Yes.
34:28Wouldn't have got clobberday, Dad.
34:30Not if you stuck by rules.
34:33Oh, did he get a bump then?
34:36Show blossom.
34:37She knows how to make it better.
34:44Get mills started again.
34:47Right.
34:48We'll give you a hand with a chain.
34:54Frank's inside.
34:57Happening soon to ask you.
35:00Alone?
35:02Why?
35:02Why not?
35:09He says you're a non-believer.
35:12Me?
35:15Hmm.
35:17All this, uh,
35:19fatalism,
35:21predestiny bit.
35:26Says you don't buy it.
35:31As a sort of therapy, I do.
35:39Well, Henry certainly proved something with it out there just now.
35:51Most impressive.
35:54Yes, it was.
35:56And it was just what he needed, too.
36:01Oh.
36:03To give him confidence.
36:06See, it worries him,
36:08my being a non-believer.
36:14Why?
36:15Because he...
36:15He respects you, your...
36:18Your views?
36:19No, because he imagines that he needs me still.
36:24So do all the others.
36:27So do all the others.
36:31Rudner included.
36:40Hey.
36:44What's wrong?
