Miss Austen S01E02 (2025) [Full Movie] [New Drama]Full EP - Full
Transcript
00:01I'm here to assist Miss Isabella Fowle.
00:03Cassandra, we weren't expecting you.
00:05Isabella must live with her sisters, promise me.
00:08There is no greater comfort in this world than a sister.
00:12You and I will always be sisters, even when I'm Mrs. Fowle.
00:17There are things I must say to you before I leave, in case I do not return.
00:20If you cannot marry me, you must feel free to marry another.
00:23I promise you, Tom, that I will never marry any other man but you.
00:29There are sure to be letters here that will cast up all manner of treasure.
00:32Everything one needs to know about Jane Austen is to be found within the pages of her novels.
00:38We have bad tidings to impart, Cassie.
01:24Where on earth could be you, Diana?
01:26Sorry, ma'am. I was in the kitchen with Mrs. Isabel.
01:29And what of Miss Austen?
01:31In her room, ma'am.
01:32What's she doing in there?
01:34Cassandra! There's work to be done.
01:40Mary, my dear.
01:42So there you are.
01:44So here I am.
01:46We weren't expecting you so soon,
01:48on account of tea with Mrs. Bunbury.
01:51This has been a falling out to do with you, Cassandra.
01:54Me?
01:54Mrs. Bunbury suggested that you arriving here
01:57without informing me first was a slur on my reputation.
02:00I mounted a most robust offence, but she was adamant.
02:03It's not the dumb thing, Cassandra.
02:06We're supposed to be sisters.
02:08Well, I sincerely hope
02:11that relations with Mrs. Bunbury return to cordiality very soon.
02:15Hmm. Dinah says you've made a start on clearing my dear sister's room.
02:19You know I wish to help?
02:20Did you find any letters from Jane?
02:23Not a single one.
02:26How odd.
02:28Considering how often, Jane wrote.
02:30No matter.
02:31I find them myself.
02:33Perhaps you will be lucky where I was not.
02:38Mum, Mrs. Austin, do you wish me to make up Mrs. Fell's room for you?
02:42Yes, yes.
02:42Do it at once.
02:43So I may settle myself and get on with clearing.
02:46Task I do not relish given how close Eliza and I were.
02:52Now, I said.
03:01Let me pick it up, ma'am. You'll hurt yourself.
03:03There is little point in making more work than is absolutely necessary, Isabella.
03:07It was an accident.
03:09Ah, well, I'll leave you to it. I have work to do upstairs.
03:13Dinah, Dinah. As soon as you're ready.
03:17There's too much to do.
03:19I must ask Mr. Dundas for more time.
03:21I'm not ready. I won't be ready.
03:24Isabella, Isabella, I have been in your position and I know how daunting this task must appear.
03:32But I also know how uncertainty for your future can make it feel all the more onerous.
03:40That is why this question must be settled without delay.
03:44To that purpose, I wonder if we might make a visit today to see your sisters.
03:50We're still too busy here, Cassandra. Surely it can wait.
03:52Isabella, I am becoming increasingly concerned about what is to become of you.
03:57We cannot delay this decision any longer.
04:01We should do it. Of course.
04:04But...
04:06But not today.
04:09Tomorrow, perhaps.
04:11Besides, I have errands to run this morning.
04:15Very well.
04:16Well, in that case, perhaps I could start to clear the dining room.
04:21I could clear your mother's writing desk.
04:24Save your Aunt Mary the bother.
04:29I have loved this china since I was a child.
04:34Now it is all to go to my brother.
04:39All will be well, Isabella.
04:43I am sure of it.
04:46Good.
05:23What does that say?
05:25It says Eliza.

08:24you my dear brother come I know you'll want to gather yourselves but the
08:33children are quite wild with excitement if we don't go straight to see them I
08:37fear they will burst they are the perfect tonic to stave off sad cannot
08:43wait to see them stand still no fidgeting say hello children look who's
09:02I told you Cass fit to burst someone of a more cynical disposition might wonder
09:12if Elizabeth has something to gain by having aunt Cassie at Godmersham
09:17this is not a thought that should ever cross my mind Eliza and certainly not
09:22one I would write down
09:37what photo are we?
09:41well it would appear so I may pay Mary Jane
09:47Isabella's sister a visit on my travels
09:50are you expected?
09:51Mrs. Mirajin Dexter is not one for a surprise visit I'm sure she will be more than happy to see
09:56me when she knows the purpose of my visit
09:59time is of the essence we must make sure Isabella is taken care of
10:10what's the matter?
10:29what's the matter?
10:31Mrs. Dexter?
10:33Mrs. Dexter?
10:33Mary Jane?
10:34Mary Jane?
10:34It's me Cassandra Austin I've come to call on you
10:49you can never be too careful come into the parlour
11:04what interesting objects
11:07what do you see here are the joys of the Empire
11:11halcyon days
11:15halcyon
11:17now
11:19sit down
11:26Isabella has been looking after you has she?
11:28oh yes
11:31impeccably
11:34she's got the heart of an ox Isabella
11:37braver than you think
11:41although she wouldn't survive for one single day on her own so it's a good thing she's come to live
11:45with me
11:46so it's settled then
11:49of course it's settled
11:50isn't that why you're here to make sure?
11:53yes it's just that Isabella doesn't seem to know this
11:57what you have to know about my sister is this
12:00she thinks she knows her own mind
12:03but she doesn't
12:08Tiffin
12:11I
12:24Miss Fowl
12:25Mr. Liddardale
12:26I must offer you my apologies
12:29I've been tardy in calling to inquire how you're faring since
12:32I am perfectly well thank you
12:35in truth I have been busy
12:37preparing the vicarage for the new vicar
12:39I am sure that must be a most difficult task
12:44have you secured
12:48new lodgings?
12:49not yet
12:52but it is all in hand
12:53I am delighted to hear that
12:57there is nothing more unsettling than
12:59insecurity
13:01indeed
13:02indeed
13:05I wish you well
13:07truly
13:08that is most kind
13:11now if you'll forgive me I have an errand to run
13:15you
13:23I am
13:25I am
13:25I am happy to report that Cassie indulges my frequent demands for news from Godmersham
13:29and writes often
13:30though I hear suspiciously
13:33though I hear suspiciously little about the delights and amusements of the Kent countryside
13:36and a great deal more about spillikins with the tiny inhabitants of the nursery
13:49oh
13:49oh Elizabeth there you are
13:52I wondered if I might take a short turn around the garden while the baby's asleep
13:55oh my dear no
13:58it's too warm outside
13:59you're in the best place up here
14:02besides I cannot play that game for my life
14:06oh
14:07look how they adore you
14:09I cannot tell you how much it suits me to have you here
14:13things have turned out so well have they not
14:17I mean
14:20but I did not mean
14:21I know what you mean my dear
14:22I'm most grateful to be here
14:25good
14:27now I think I might have a little rest before my family arrive for dinner
14:35oh look, I did it
14:36oh look, I did it
14:37it's your turn now
14:44Edward?
14:48where are you going?
14:50we have guests for dinner
14:51just at this table to cast my eyes over the new filly
14:53I won't be long
14:54I'm afraid the filly will have to wait
14:55my mother will be here before we know it
14:58and she would not be happy if a horse has taken precedence
15:01no, no that would not do
15:03have you told Cassie what time she's expected downstairs?
15:06oh my dearest
15:08I don't think it would be correct for Cassie to join us
15:11it's a family dinner and Cassie is family after all
15:14she is still in mourning Edward
15:16it would not be appropriate for her to attend a happy party
15:21cook will send something up on a train
15:24okay
15:28Eliza, I must prevail upon you for assistance in a matter of great urgency
15:34Cassie is trapped in the nursery at Godmisham
15:37my good and dutiful sister does not complain
15:40but it is clear to me that the situation is most serious
15:47please do not think the indelicate if I suggest the timing is to our advantage
15:52I beg you Eliza
15:53thank you
15:54write to Cassie and request her presence at your confinement
15:58Elizabeth will not deny a mother in need
16:00and as for Edward, he will do as he is bidden
16:05we cannot allow our beloved Cassie to convince herself
16:09that her life's sole value lies in the role of dependable spinster aunt
16:15please write as soon as you are able
16:17I have an inkling that our intervention will be a relief to her
16:42shush now
16:43the baby will be here soon
16:45I have an infant sound
16:47shh
16:47shh

16:51shh
17:04Eliza?
17:05She's sleeping, Fuller.
17:07She's exhausted.
17:09Do you have a girl?
17:11The sweetest, most beloved little girl.
17:16Another girl?
17:30My dearest Eliza, we are delighted to hear you are safely delivered and baby Isabella is thriving.
17:45Isabella is a splendid name.
17:48She can only grow up to be a heroine or a Spanish queen, though I would not wish that fate
17:54upon her.
17:55No, her adventures will be magnificent and not solely confined to the great county of Berkshire.
18:03Look, Isabella.
18:07Your dear, sweet Uncle Tom's tree.
18:12His and mine.
18:2628.
18:27Mm-hmm.
18:295 times 7 is...
18:3335.
18:34Very good, Arthur.
18:36Now, 6 times 7 is...
18:386 times 7 is...
18:4242.
18:43Mm-hmm.
18:447 times 7 is...
18:49Rise and shine.
18:5049.
18:51Well done.
18:53Shall we attempt the 8 times table?
18:56I can try, miss.
18:57Very good.
19:021 times 8 is...
19:058.
19:05Indeed.
19:062 times 8 is...
19:082 times 8 is...
19:096 days.
19:12I have just seen Miss Isabella with a pupil.
19:15She is quite the teacher.
19:17I had no idea.
19:19There's a lot to Miss Isabella that people don't know.
19:22I don't want to.
19:24She must have made her father proud, looking after him as she did.
19:29Well, if he was, ma'am, he never told her.
19:31Though he wasn't quiet about much else.
19:33He used to fill the house with his presents, did Reverend Phil.
19:36God rest him.
19:38Hmm.
19:38I had not seen him for some time, but I do recall he was the most exuberant of men.
19:44Well, if that's what you like to call it.
19:46There's many a day you'd have heard him shouting up in the village, and he...
19:50Used to bellow at Miss Isabella.
19:53Well...
19:53Bellow?
19:55What do you mean, Dinah?
19:57Not a thing, ma'am.
19:59It's not for me to say anything.
20:00I must go and fetch the rest of the dinner service.
20:05Dinah, is Mrs. Austin still resting?
20:08She is, that ma'am.
20:10I wish to visit Miss Isabella's other sister.
20:13Where might I find Miss Beth's school?
20:17Behind the plasterer's arms.
20:50Excuse me.
20:52Could you tell me where I might find Miss Fowle?
20:54Miss Winnerbaugh.
21:20Cassandra, there's illness here.
21:21You must leave at once.
21:22Miss Austin, you cannot be in here.
21:24What ails her?
21:26Diphtheria.
21:27It has spread through the village.
21:29But as for the rest,
21:32poverty, misfortune,
21:34nothing I can cure.
21:35Now I beg you, leave.
21:37It is not safe here.
21:38Come, Cassandra, I'll walk you to the end of the village.
21:50Beth, I must talk to you about Isabella's future.
21:53Isabella's future, that great conversation that never seems to end.
21:57Well, it has been discussed already.
22:00Endlessly.
22:01Though I try very hard to stay out of the Fowle family politics, as I have no appetite for meddling.
22:06Your sister is about to lose her home.
22:08Isabella is a grown woman.
22:11Surely she's more than capable of securing her own future, whatever that may be.
22:16I'm sorry, but I must get back.
22:18Miss Liddardale needs me.
22:20Come visit again when the school reopens.
22:22I'd like to show you what I do there.
22:24Beth.
22:25Beth.
22:34Oh, where have you been?
22:37We've been so worried.
22:39It's weather.
22:40Isabella!
22:41Remove this dog from my presence at once.
22:45It appears your Aunt Mary has risen from her rest.
22:47Yes.
22:48She found my mother's room a little on the chilly side.
22:58Still no letters, Mary?
23:00Er, no.
23:01Strangely.
23:03This is my sister's writing desk.
23:07Well, throw these away.
23:08Eliza was always prone to a great deal of sentiment.
23:12How foolish to go out in this weather, Cassandra.
23:14She'd know better at your age.
23:18That dog is feral.
23:21He'll be the death of me.
23:22He must be banned from the house at once.
23:26Tea, diner, in the drawing room.
23:29Come on, Peter.
23:30Come on.
23:31That's fine.
23:32Oh, good way.
23:48Is that the only tiling we have?
23:51We have packed the rest on, Mary.
23:53At your instruction.
23:54Oh, well, I suppose I must endure it.
23:57Oh, my leg is bothering me again.
24:03That tea will be going cold
24:04before any of us have a chance to taste it.
24:07Isabella, do you have any more cushions?
24:09My leg should be more raised.
24:14More raised?
24:15Yes.
24:17And a blanket, perhaps.
24:27Yes.
24:28And more locks on fire.
24:35Oh, so where have you been, anyway?
24:37To visit Miss Beth.
24:39There is sickness at the top of the village.
24:42She is up there helping Mr. Lidderdale.
24:44Ah, Beth and Mr. Lidderdale.
24:47So she's a nurse as well as a teacher.
24:50They did seem very familiar with one another.
24:52Oh.
24:52That is a surprise, is it not, Isabella?
24:56You must forgive me, Aunt Mary.
24:59I have much to be getting on with.
25:01Dinah.
25:02I'm Miss Austen in a hot bath.
25:03We don't want her getting sick.
25:11Beth Fowl has been nothing but a trial for this family,
25:16fraternising with certain elements of society.
25:19Her father did not approve.
25:21She was tending to Mrs. Winterbourne.
25:25You should see the conditions that poor woman lives in.
25:27Well, let us not dwell on Miss Fortune.
25:32Go, go, go, take your bath.
25:35I'll rest some more and then I can set about taking charge.
25:39Miss family needs a firmer hand.
25:40Miss family needs a firmer hand.
26:11Miss family needs a firmer hand.
26:16Miss Santa?
26:17Miss Santa?
26:26So you're in here now?
26:28I thought I heard a noise.
26:30I thought you were resting your leg.
26:32Oh, the fire in the drawing room is a misery.
26:36Have you found something?
26:39No.
26:41No. I just wanted to see if I could still hear the sea.
26:47Stories for children, Cassandra. You could never hear the sea.
26:53The sea sounds so calm today.
26:57I cannot wait to stand beside it in Sidmouth.
26:59I'll miss you when you're gone.
27:01It is only for a season.
27:03The Austens of Hampshire are embarking on the first of their great holiday schemes.
27:07You'll hardly recognize us when we return.
27:09Isabella will have grown so much by then.
27:14It is Brother James and Sister Mary. They've arrived.
27:19How lovely.
27:31Where's Anna?
27:34Anna!
27:43We've missed you.
27:45Let's go upstairs.
27:47You've grown, Miss Anna.
27:50I've grown two whole shoe sizes.
27:52Two?
27:53Let's hope you stop growing soon or there'll be no shoes left in the country to fit you.
27:57Save giant's shoes.
28:01Hold it to your ear and listen.
28:04Can you hear the sea?
28:07I can hear it.
28:08I can hear it.
28:09What does the sea look like?
28:12Well,
28:15you will soon know.
28:17Because we three
28:19are going to the seaside.
28:21What a wonderful idea.
28:24What a splendid idea.
28:27I'm sure your father and I will manage without you, Anna.
28:39My dear Isabella, please try to pull yourself together.
28:43Mary.
28:45Mary, she has just lost her father.
28:46I am aware, and it is sad, but he was elderly, and that is the natural order of things.
28:53It should be easier to bear.
28:55But there is nothing written to tell each one of us how we must endure grief.
29:05Isabella, perhaps a few chapters from your Aunt Jane's novel may make a welcome distraction.
29:10Have you been reading aloud from Jane's novels?
29:15I thought your father had expressly forbidden that practice.
29:18As you have reminded me, Aunt Mary, my father is no longer here.
29:22Perhaps I could recite some of your Uncle James's poetry.
29:27That is kind.
29:29But I find myself pleasantly surprised by how much I am enjoying persuasion.
29:34Anne Elliot is a most interesting character.
29:38A pleasant sort of person.
29:42Sensible.
29:44With not much drama about her.
29:46And I am most keen to hear the ending of her story before I am evicted from this house.
29:52Will she have her happy ending?
29:54Well, we must read on, then, and find out.
29:58Oh, I must know if she is to be married.
30:02Is that the only outcome that would be happy?
30:06It is.
30:07Oh, Isabella.
30:09There are so many other ways for women like us to find happiness.
30:14Are there?
30:16Read on.
30:17Please, Cassandra.
30:20From this time, Captain Wentworth and Anne Elliot were repeatedly in the same circle.
30:28Well, they had no conversation together.
30:31No intercourse but what the commonest civility required.
30:36Once so much to each other.
30:39And now, nothing.
30:42Now they were strangers, nay, worse than strangers, for they could never become acquainted.
30:51Oh, Cassandra.
30:52Your sister understood affairs of her heart better than anyone.
30:57Please tell me.
30:59Did she ever know love?
31:02Writing was Jane's greatest love.
31:06She took great comfort from the heroes in her books, but in life, no man was ever worthy.
31:14Forgive me, my dear, but I think your memory fails here.
31:19Wasn't there a gentleman you both met in Sidmouth?
31:22The season you spent there, remember?
31:25And wasn't there even rivalry between you?
31:29Rivalry?
31:31In love?
31:35I have no idea what your Aunt Mary is talking about.
31:38If I recall, this gentleman seemed greatly attracted to Jane.
31:49Do excuse me, madam.
32:00How romantic.
32:02To fall in love by the sea.
32:08What a lovely confection.
32:12Your Aunt Jane would be very amused to find herself the heroine of a romantic triangle.
32:23I am afraid I find myself exceedingly tired, and my head hurts.
32:29Okay, I do hope I have not caught a chill from today's wanderings.
32:35No, no, I can manage.
32:41Good night.
33:19Come along now.
33:22Jane!
33:24Jane!
33:25Shall we go?
33:28Here, let me tie it for you.
33:33Why do you only wear black, Aunt Cassie?
33:36Because.
33:38It becomes me.
33:41Your Aunt Jane is happy here.
33:44Let's just go shopping.
33:45Yes, please.
34:04Oh, look at the yellow one, Aunt Cassie.
34:06Do you see it?
34:07You all look so pretty in that.
34:09Far better than boring or black.
34:12It is very lovely, my dear.
34:18Oh, look at the blue, Aunt Cassie.
34:20It's the colour of the sea.
34:22Oh, is it like the yellow best?
34:24Because it's like the sun.
34:27It is indeed.
34:30Let's come back for some ribbons tomorrow.
34:32What a charming child.
34:38Do excuse me, madam.
34:46Be of mine pertinence, miss, but that is the most excellent shell.
34:52Yes, it is.
34:55Mama, are you ready?
34:57Thank you, my dear.
35:02Good day to you.
35:16Oh, I do like it here.
35:18Oh, I like it very much.
35:20So what have you been up to since the beach, my darlings?
35:22I hope you haven't been sitting in here when outside there's all manner of magnificence.
35:26Look, Aunt Jane.
35:27I found this.
35:28It's my collection.
35:30Oh, that's a beauty.
35:33Cassie, I think the sea is beginning to work its magic.
35:35I spy some colour in this landlubber's face.
35:38We'll make a pirate out of her yet.
35:41I think Aunt Cass is recovering some of her bloom, too, in spite of her best efforts.
35:47You look better.
35:49The nice man we met in the dress shop said it was a most excellent shell.
35:54Nice man?
35:55What nice man is this, pray tell?
35:59I'll go and check on Mother, and then we can make plans for the rest of the day.
36:05Is Grandmama poorly?
36:07No, my dear.
36:08Your Grandmama likes to take to her bed whenever we arrive anywhere new.
36:12She can test the mattress, meet the doctors, sample the wares of the local apothecary.
36:16It's her way of feeling at home.
36:18Like all the best invalids, she will outlive us all.
36:21Jane, that's not fair.
36:23Mama has been quite bilious since we arrived.
36:26Travel affects her.
36:32Oh, they're beautiful.
36:34My bowels feel much steadier, Cassie.
36:38After what was the most frightful evacuation.
36:41Thanks be to the Lord.
36:43Lord, I think I will like this apothecary.
36:46He has a good feel for my system.
36:52Beautiful evening.
36:54Yes, quite beautiful.
36:57Er, Mrs. George Austen.
37:00Mr. Henry Hobdate.
37:01My pleasure, ma'am.
37:02This is my eldest daughter, Miss Austen.
37:07Yes, I do believe I've made your daughter's acquaintance before.
37:12Miss Austen.
37:14Passing encounter in a shop, is all.
37:16Indeed.
37:20And this is my other daughter, Miss Jane Austen.
37:25Delighted.
37:25Likewise.
37:27Have a lovely evening.
37:32Come.
37:33Father and Anna will be waiting.
37:36Impatiently, no doubt.
37:39No doubt.
38:01I don't want to go all the way up there, Grandpa Park.
38:04You don't have to, my pet.
38:06We have every chance of discovering treasures amongst these rocks.
38:10Good morning, sir.
38:11Splendid day for fossil hunting, is it not?
38:13Indeed it is, sir.
38:16Now, my granddaughter has declared it the perfect day to unearth hidden treasures from the past.
38:22Well, she has come to the right place.
38:24Ladies.
38:25I'm not a lady. I'm far too young.
38:27My apologies.
38:30Now, you are a serious fossil hunter, are you not?
38:33I am.
38:34Well, I've already found some excellent specimens that you might be interested in.
38:38Let me furnish you with the tools of the trade.
38:41We are blessed to have such an expert with us.
38:44Ah, no expert. More of an enthusiastic amateur.
38:59Do you think I'll find a sea monster, Mr. Hobday?
39:03Well, perhaps not a monster, but a sea creature, certainly.
39:07Some sea creatures, fossils, are found at the top of mountains.
39:11Isn't that so?
39:11You see, many years ago, the Earth was almost completely covered by water.
39:15And then, over time, those waters receded to reveal the land beneath.
39:28Do you think I'll find a sea creature in there?
39:30You may well do.
39:54What am I looking at?
39:56It's the shape of a worm. Mr. Hobday says it must be thousands of years old.
40:00Many thousands, even.
40:01That is evidence of a creature that lived on Earth even before man.
40:06What are you drawing, my dear?
40:08My daughter is an artist of considerable talent.
40:10Papa.
40:11Oh, look, she's captured your likeness brilliantly.
40:15May I see?
40:16It is but a sketch.
40:19Now, young lady, let us leave Mr. Hobday in peace.
40:27Mr. Hobday is so clever, Aunt Jane.
40:30Is he now?
40:30He knows everything.
40:32Does he know?
40:33Aunt Cassie drew a sketch of him.
40:36Did she now?
40:38She did, and it was quite the likeness.
40:40Not just of him.
40:42I drew all three of them while I was bored waiting for them to finish.
40:45And what was your opinion of Mr. Hobday, husband?
40:50Well, given we hardly know him, he struck me as unusually gifted in all that is agreeable.
40:58And now, Cassie, pray tell me, do you share your father's opinion?
41:05I must say I do.
41:08So much so that I believe he would be an ideal suitor for Jane.
41:13For me?
41:14Yes, you.
41:15He's intelligent.
41:16He reads.
41:19He knows a great deal about the history of mankind.
41:23You must think of your future, Jane.
41:25It matters not a jot which of you, as long as it's one of you.
41:37I have no intention of taking tea with Mrs. Hobday, or anyone for that matter.
41:42Far too busy.
41:43I have a chapter I must finish.
41:47Well, what if he's there?
41:49What if who is there?
41:50Mr. Hobday.
41:53You might find him to your liking.
41:57I won't find him to my liking.
42:18One moment.
42:20One moment.
42:23How is your headache?
42:26You retired rather abruptly, and I thought I'd look in on you.
42:31Was it something I said?
42:33No.
42:34No, not at all.
42:36I can't even remember what we were talking about.
42:39How is Eliza's room?
42:40I'm cold.
42:41This house is like the grave now.
42:46Well, good night.
42:47Good night.
42:47Sleep well, my dear.
43:01Oh, Mrs. Austin, I do sympathize.
43:04I'm here for the sea air, but this wretched body of mine has not let me outdoors all week.
43:10How awful.
43:10Well, I was struck down by biliousness the minute we arrived.
43:17It'll be her evacuations next.
43:19Perhaps the floor will open up and swallow us.
43:21It would be a blessed relief.
43:23And what of Mr. Hobday?
43:25We lost my husband four years ago.
43:29I'm sorry to hear that.
43:32What did he ail from?
43:34A tumour.
43:36A tumour?
43:37We saw the best of men, but there was nothing to be done.
43:43I see you are studying our books.
43:45Do novels interest you both?
43:47Very much so.
43:48You have some of our favourites here.
43:50My sister and I never go anywhere without Sir Charles Granderson by our side.
43:54These are my son's books, and he reads to me every night.
43:57Perhaps that shall be our next book.
43:59Your son enjoys the works of the Madame Burnie and Hedgeworth.
44:03Cassie seemed to think he was of the more scientific persuasion.
44:07He's a scientist and an artist.
44:09Yes.
44:10A philosopher and a lover of the novel.
44:12I do believe he could take over the world if he were not so insistent on looking after his poor,
44:18infirm mother.
44:20Would you like some cake?
44:22Well, he did say he was perfect.
44:24I'm not sure what my constitution would take.
44:31That curate was handsome enough and single from what I hear, but his sermon was a touch...
44:38Terrifying, Mama.
44:40Mrs. Austin.
44:42Oh, well, this is a coincidence, and I must say the happiest one.
44:49Mr. Hobdame, Mrs. Hobdame?
44:50Mrs. Austin.
44:52How did you find the sermon today, sir?
44:55Oh, I thought the young lad did well enough, considering his church was hardly full to brimming.
45:00That must explain his histrionics in the pulpit.
45:03Perhaps he's hoping his reputation for hysteria will travel and drum up more gullible trade from out of town.
45:08My dear Jane is entitled to preach in his own manner.
45:12My father is being polite.
45:14That sermon was not to our taste.
45:16It was vulgar and excessive.
45:17What did you think, Mr. Hobdame?
45:19Jane, you cannot ask Mr. Hobdame of his opinion when you've been so sure of your own.
45:24Do forgive my sister, Mr. Hobdame.
45:27She's not usually quite so outspoken.
45:30I can assure you she certainly is, Mr. Hobdame.
45:33Well, luckily, I agree most comprehensively with Miss Austin.
45:36It was not to my taste either.
45:38How will you all find these signals?
45:39Oh.
45:40I like it very much.
45:41We are of the exact same opinion once again as we're seeing.
45:44We must pick up the pace, girls.
45:46Our son Frank isn't drowning tonight.
45:48Did you know our brother has fought Napoleon single-handed, Mr. Hobdame?
45:53I rather approve of your Mr. Hobdame.
45:57He's not my Mr. Hobdame.
46:00In fact, I thought you made rather the impression.
46:02Was I delightful?
46:04No, you were frightful.
46:04As frightful as I was to Mr. Blackhall.
46:08Nobody in the history of social intercourse has been as frightful to anyone as you were to Mr. Blackhall.
46:13So would you estimate this morning it's a half a Blackhall?
46:18I think I'd say more of a third.
46:22And he's certainly not my Mr. Hobdame.
46:24Really?
46:24Then you have not noticed the way he looks at you.
46:27Nonsense.
46:27He ignores me at every opportunity.
46:30He pays everyone else far more attention.
46:32Papa, Anna, you.
46:33Precisely.
46:34And that is the evidence.
46:36I am something of an expert in romantic matters.
46:39And I'm quite sure I saw sparks flying between you.
46:42I think one even caught in my bonnet.
46:44Because of your charms, I might have gone up in smoke.
46:48Cass.
46:49How can you be so blind?
46:51You have caught him in your powers.
46:53I have no powers.
46:55Oh, you do, my darling.
46:56And that you are unaware of them makes you more powerful still.
47:01Mr. Hobdame has fallen for you, Cassie.
47:05Well, then I'm sorry for him.
47:08I've lost the only man I could ever marry.
47:10I have no possible interest in Mr. Hobdame.
47:16Where are you going?
47:18To right.
47:33Jane.
47:35What more have you said?
47:38Eliza.
47:39Our Sidmouth adventure is proving far more entertaining than even I could have imagined.
47:44A secret plan is afoot.
47:47And I am to be my young niece Anna's willing accomplice.
47:50The beneficiary of our surprise is to be Cassie, no less.
48:05Please say like it.
48:38You see your power now?
48:58What is it?
49:00Just waiting for someone.
49:13Miss Austen.
49:15What's the Hobdame?
49:19Yellow suits you.
49:40I may have neglected to say how sorry I was to hear of your tragic loss.
49:46That is most kind, Mr. Hobdame.
49:51I confess I...
49:53I was overwhelmed by grief at first.
49:57And now?
50:01Now...
50:03It is not so sharp.
50:12My dear Eliza, this comes to you with great urgency.
50:17I must share it with you, though it is not my secret to tell.
50:22My sister, my beloved sister Cassie, is in love.
50:44Cassie, what are you doing down here at this hour?
50:48I heard a noise. It frightened the life out of me.
50:51I don't know how I got here.
50:53Are you ill?
50:54You must be ill.
50:55No, don't come here if you're ill.
50:57Please.
50:58Please just leave me here.
51:00No, if you're sure.
51:01Will you continue to...
51:06I have a voice.
51:08No, if you're ill.
51:10Come on, Danny.
51:11Bye.
51:12Bye.
51:14Bye.
51:16Bye.
51:27Bye.
51:28Bye.
51:30Bye.
51:41Miss Austen?
51:43Miss Austen?
51:44God save us, don't tell us she's got a date on Miss...
51:47Cassandra?
51:48Isabella?
51:48Cassandra, it's me.
51:50Isabella?
51:50Is she all right?
51:51She's burning up.
51:53Is she saying for Mr Litterdale?
51:56Miss Isabella?
51:57Mr Litterdale is too busy.
51:59We'll nurse her ourselves.
52:00Miss Isabella?
52:01I know what I am doing, Dinah.
52:08A beautiful day, is it not?
52:10Quite beautiful.
52:12Then I wonder if you might consider walking out for me.
52:20Eliza's letters.
52:21Am I to understand you already have knowledge of their whereabouts?
52:25Why ever would you think that?
52:27If I were the future Mrs Harris Bigwither, I should make room for as many sisters as possible.
52:33Are you an admirer of the seaside, Mr Bigwither?
52:37Do you truly believe that you could one day love this man?
52:39When manna falls from heaven, it would be foolish to squander it.
52:44I am to be in print.
52:46I'm not to be a published authorette.
52:47I am to be a published laureate.
52:49Do you think you'd be a stud in john gì?
52:52I am to a little ghost dressed in john, and is it right?
52:59You're worried about going to be a person in the savoy?
53:00I am to be a inhabller!
53:12I'm to be a photographer!
