00:00Miss Isabella is to vacate the vicarage.
00:02I am resolved to ensure she is settled with her sisters.
00:06Beth and Mr. Liddiddow.
00:08Cassandra, there's illness here.
00:09Miss Austen, you cannot be in here.
00:11They did seem very familiar with one another.
00:13Did you find any letters from Joan?
00:16Not a single one.
00:19The Austens of Hampshire are embarking on the first of their great holiday schemes.
00:24Mr. Henry Hobday, it's my pleasure, Marl.
00:26I'm quite sure I saw sparks flying between you.
00:31You have caught him in your powers.
00:44Is she in for Mr. Liddiddell?
00:45Mr. Liddiddell is too busy.
00:47We'll nurse her ourselves.
01:01No.
01:02No.
01:03No.
01:03You are as well.
01:04You must rest now.
01:05The letters...
01:06Isabel, you must...
01:08There are no letters, my dear.
01:10Rest now.
01:12No.
01:13No.
01:14No.
01:15Not you.
01:15Cassandra, this is dying, huh?
01:16Cooling a brow.
01:18No.
01:18Not you.
01:19Isabel, you must die.
01:20She's delirious.
01:21She doesn't know what she's saying.
01:24No.
01:25No.
01:25Where are they?
01:26You must...
01:26You must keep them hidden.
01:28There are no letters, my dear.
01:29Rest now.
01:31Jane.
01:32I promise Jane.
01:34You must...
01:35You must hide the letters.
01:36Shh.
01:37You must be still.
01:39Keep them hidden.
01:39Keep them hidden.
01:40There is nothing to hide.
01:43No.
01:45No.
01:46Harry.
01:47No.
01:48No.
01:49Cassandra.
01:49Look, I've got...
01:50Give me...
01:51No.
01:52She's getting worse, Mrs. Isabel.
01:53She's gonna peg it on us.
01:54God forbid.
01:56I cannot infect Mr. Litterdale now.
01:58No.
01:59Her fever will break soon.
02:02Besides, I'm sure Mr. Litterdale and my sister are far too busy to be disturbed.
02:06Go up to the big house and beg for ice.
02:08They'll have plenty this time of year.
02:17Dinah?
02:18Is something the matter?
02:23Look, it's all right.
02:26She said you helped her.
02:27No.
02:28No.
02:28No.
02:29No.
02:30We are helping you.
02:32We are helping you.
02:32We are helping you.
02:34It's all right.
02:36It's all right.
02:38It's cold.
02:39It's cold.
02:40It's cold.
02:40Help me.
02:41We are helping you.
02:43I know she's out and I am sorry to say it, but she's brought it on herself.
02:46Went to see Miss Beth and study in the pot.
02:50It's enough, Dinah.
02:51No.
02:51I don't care no more.
02:52The Lord in them now.
02:54No.
02:56No.
02:57No.
02:58No.
02:58We are here.
02:59No.
02:59No.
03:12No.
03:14No.
03:16No.
03:17No.
03:20No.
03:22No.
03:22No.
03:23No.
03:24No.
03:30No.
03:31No.
03:31No.
03:34No.
03:35No.
03:35No.
03:36No.
03:37No.
03:39And bewildered as to how we'll transport these multitudes back home.
03:48Forgive me if this seems... intrusive.
03:52She is a charming child.
03:55But I do detect an air of melancholy.
03:59Unusual, in one so young.
04:01She lost her mother when she was very small.
04:04She is, I fear, still scarred by it.
04:07Yes, the loss of a parent is a heavy burden to bear.
04:12Especially at such a young age.
04:15Your mother told us of your own bereavement, of which I'm very sorry.
04:19Yes, my father was an excellent man.
04:24My mother found it exceedingly hard to stay in the family home afterwards.
04:29Hence our peripatetic existence.
04:33But I do hope to return there soon.
04:37Where is home?
04:38Derbyshire.
04:41The thought of Derbyshire amuses you?
04:43No, not at all.
04:45My sister declares it to be a place of some perfection.
04:49Alongside Hampshire, of course, though, never Shropshire.
04:58I'm enjoying your Susan.
05:00I must say, dear sister, your Mr Thorpe is the devil of a bounder.
05:05If he is an Oxford man, I'm grateful not to have gone there.
05:08I dare him to come onto my ship.
05:10We'd run him up the yard down at once.
05:12He'd never be on your ship.
05:13Mr John Thorpe has neither the heart nor the head for it.
05:16You sailors are the best of men.
05:18Yet not once has any of your heroines ever been blessed with a dashing sailor brother.
05:23Oh, Frank.
05:24If the heroine was fortunate enough to have a dashing sailor brother,
05:27she's spoiled for any hero I could create.
05:30No man could match him.
05:32So this is why my sisters are still unmarried.
05:35No man can match me.
05:37I fear Cassie is about to betray you, brother, with her new suitor.
05:42Suitor?
05:43A proto?
05:44Jane.
05:46Sorry, I appear to have spoken in error.
05:48Cassie has no suitor, especially no suitor by the name of Henry or Hobday.
05:54Or Henry Hobday.
05:55Papa, please.
05:56Or any suitor with those names who just so happens to be the heir to an estate in Derbyshire.
06:02An estate?
06:03In Derbyshire?
06:04Papa, I beg you.
06:05Come now, you're making your sister uncomfortable.
06:08Besides, I have seen no evidence of any such romance.
06:12That's because it's a deep secret known only to the whole of cinema.
06:16Enough!
06:18Jane's love of fiction appears to have spread from the page into our lives.
06:22I'm sad to report she now routinely spouts nonsense.
06:26We can no longer believe a single word that comes out of her mouth.
06:37Cass?
06:39Did you really mind Mr Hobday accompanying us today?
06:43Very much.
06:44It was all Frank's doing.
06:47Of which you played no part.
06:50None whatsoever.
06:51Very well, I admit it.
06:54But you cannot deny Mr Hobday is deeply enamoured of you.
06:58As he should be, it proves he is a man of excellent taste.
07:02In fact, he appears to be the model of perfection which, if I may say, is most infuriating.
07:07For you know, as a woman of many faults, I abhor faultlessness in others.
07:12You are faultless in my eyes.
07:15You just bear me better than anyone else.
07:17It is you who is faultless.
07:20Which is why you deserve something better than this wretched future of ours.
07:24Jane, why must you always make such a drama out of nothing?
07:28Our future is not wretched.
07:30We still have our parents, we have good brothers who will never neglect us.
07:35And most importantly of all, we have each other.
07:39Unless you find someone good enough and, well, even then I shall not starve.
07:45Is that your ambition?
07:47Not to starve?
07:49Here lies Cassandra Austin, she did not starve.
07:54I have no crystal ball cast, but one thing I know for certain.
07:58We will be poor.
08:00And we will become objects of pity.
08:03Or worse still, derision.
08:06This must be my fate.
08:08It does not have to be yours.
08:11I love you above all, but we do not have to live as one.
08:14We are two different women.
08:18I beg you, if you are offered any means of escape, do not refuse it.
08:30Hmm?
08:33I don't die in my own bed.
08:36Shh.
08:37You are not dying, Cassandra.
08:40I will not countenance you.
08:43Brother, let us...
08:57Mr. Litterdale, may I help you?
09:00Forgive me for intruding, Miss Fowle, but I just saw your maid, and the urgency of her demeanour gave me
09:05cause for some concern.
09:06There is no need.
09:07She was merely on an errand, and I instructed her to be quick.
09:11There is nothing more to it.
09:13Then she was carrying out your instructions to the letter.
09:17I am delighted to hear it.
09:22I understand.
09:23I understand.
09:23I do hope...
09:25Please.
09:26After you.
09:29It was only to inquire if there is still a deal of sickness in the village.
09:34Some.
09:35But thankfully, it is on the wane now.
09:37Good.
09:39For I am sure my sister will be eager to return to her pupils.
09:44I believe Beth has been assisting you, has she not?
09:49Indeed she has.
09:51Her presence has been most beneficial.
09:55That does not surprise me.
09:58She is a woman of great competence.
10:02Indeed she is.
10:07If you'll excuse me, I must...
10:09Of course, but, um...
10:12First, may I inquire after Miss Austen?
10:14I trust she has not suffered any ill effects after her visit to the village?
10:18No. None.
10:20But I will inform her of your kind concern.
10:23Good day.
10:25Good day.
10:40Captain Wentworth was more obviously struck and confused by the sight of her than she had ever observed before.
10:48For the first time since their renewed acquaintance, she felt she was betraying the least sensibility of the two.
11:58It's the half day.
11:59Miss Austen. A beautiful day, is it not?
12:02Yes. Quite beautiful.
12:05Forgive me if I'm intruding.
12:09You will not forgive me.
12:11No, you are not intruding.
12:14Then I wonder if you might consider walking out with me.
12:18Well, I'd be delighted.
12:21I'd be delighted.
13:05Mr. Hobaday.
13:06Please, I...
13:07I must speak.
13:09I'm unable to say a single word.
13:13Miss Austen.
13:23Cassie.
13:25May I call you that?
13:33It's true that we've only known each other for a short time.
13:37But it has been long enough to know that you are a woman of quite remarkable character.
13:45Exceptional, even.
13:53The truth is, Cassie Austen,
13:58I have loved you since the moment that our hands first touched.
14:04Of your beauty, there is no doubt.
14:08But it is your intelligence and your spirit and your grace that have done for me.
14:19I am yours, if you will have me.
14:26I am yours, if you will have me.
14:51I know I am not the most eloquent of men.
14:55There are things I must say to you before I leave.
14:59In case I do not return.
15:02No.
15:04You will come back.
15:05Let us not discuss this.
15:06And Cassie, we must.
15:10If you cannot marry me, you must feel free to marry another.
15:18I promise you, Tom, faithfully here before God,
15:26that I will never marry any other man but you.
15:59So, did he speak?
16:02Well,
16:04what was your answer?
16:08I refused him.
16:11Refused him?
16:12My mother will hear.
16:14She cannot know if this change is done.
16:16Cassie, why?
16:17I do not understand you.
16:18What fault could you find with Henry Hobday?
16:20What more could you ask for?
16:21A match like this at your time of life is a story beyond fiction.
16:27Please.
16:30My dearest one,
16:32help me understand.
16:39I cannot marry him.
16:43I cannot marry anyone.
16:44Why?
16:45Because I promised Tom.
16:47Tom dared ask that of you?
16:49No.
16:51No, he begged me not to feel beholden.
16:54Well, then you must not feel...
16:57I cannot go back on my word, Jane.
17:10Miss Austen?
17:11Miss Austen?
17:13Miss Austen?
17:13Oh, Cassandra.
17:15Oh, thank heavens.
17:17What on earth are you doing in here?
17:19Let's get this on, Mum, shall we?

18:48no i mean for causing so much inconvenience at a time when the house was already at sixes and sevens
18:55it is a maxim of mine that one should never fall ill while visiting

19:03of course there was that one time in london when i was brought down by the face ache

20:31my dear eliza you beg to be informed of the next stage in the saga so it is with a
20:37heavy heart

20:45indeed the reverse he proved himself as good a man as those who love cassie could ever hope for
20:53their attraction was mutual they were in love eliza i'm sure of it yet cassie refused him the
21:02sheer madness of it drives me to distraction i am no advocate of marriage for the sake of it
21:08but i am all for a good match and this could have been a splendid one cassie had the offer
21:14of a
21:14comfortable future wealth stability love and respect but she chose insecurity i struggle to
21:23comprehend it it is beyond me
21:29how could you think this how could you write it
21:35bereaved fiancee dutiful daughter caring aunt these are the roles cassie embraces esteemed object of a
21:44worthy gentleman's heart no that she would rather reject if my sister has one fault it is a wanton
21:52appetite to deny herself the pleasures of life

23:58do you have any notion of your privilege my dear friends to have all this at your disposal is
24:04quite wondrous oh we do jane we do current our blessings every day because we know it will not always
24:10be so
24:11we cannot forget that one day our brother may bring a wife here she's unlikely to want his sisters
24:17lurking about getting closer and closer katherine you and alathea are the least cross women i know
24:24but who could be cross here even i seem to have lost the night
24:29if i were the future mrs harris bigwether i should make room for as many sisters as possible
24:34and then take to the streets and petition for more
24:41behold the stuff of life a place for proper contentment well is that all that you require
24:47a mere 150 acre slice of your own rolling country i am a simple soul modest in my ambitions
24:54this place will do me very well but what about our brother what he suits you very well too
25:06so ladies how are your parents faring these days i have not seen them out and about much we've just
25:12returned from our adventures in sidmouth with them have we not cass yes indeed are you an admirer of the
25:18seaside mr bigwether the seaside good grief no that's the beauty of our neck of hampshire we cannot

25:33katherine thankfully our parents are still quite well thank you in spite of the sea our mother
25:39complains constantly of several ailments though suffers from none thankfully our our father is the
25:46patience of a saint i have often thought the rector of the small country parish to be an enviable
25:53existence without the onerous responsibilities of having too much of one's own land but imagine
25:58having no land to call your own sir what if you lived in a city like bath or london full
26:04of smoke
26:05and noise and people i wager you'd be dreaming of such onerous responsibilities then jane i hardly agree
