00:05And, of course, I shall be in Rome next month, so I look forward to discussing your thoughts
00:11on my proposals in person.
00:14Meanwhile, my assistant will be booking my next week's appointments, as I shall only
00:18be on my business trip for another three days at most.
00:24The doctors say a week, at least.
00:28Nobody must know, Jerry.
00:31Any weakness just plays into their hands.
00:33I shall only be on my business trip for another three days at most.
00:38And also, have there been any calls, Jerry?
00:44Hundreds.
00:44I've had side texts on the phone day and night, and also...
00:47No, no, not work calls.
00:49Calls from the family.
00:51I've not let anyone know you're ill, Mrs. Hart.
00:54Your instruction.
00:55Of course.
00:57We both know there's someone who would want to be informed.
01:01If Paula knew you were ill, she'd be frantic.
01:13You're my honeybee, you're my honeybee.
01:17Come on and see me.
01:18You're feeling better.
01:21I miss her, of course.
01:23But better than before.
01:26Better than?
01:27How fucking dare she?
01:29Yeah, but actually, how dare she?
01:31Telling me who to love, then just swanning off on some mystery trip.
01:35She makes me so fucking angry.
01:37People that we love do that.
01:40Let me try to kiss me, boy.
01:42Free me, baby.
01:44Free me, or you're on fire.
01:45I love you.
01:48Jim, baby.
01:51I tried to stop.
01:54I don't think it works like that.
02:01Go home, Jerry, and tell that boyfriend of yours when his show opens.
02:06I shall be wanting front row seats.
02:08Mrs. Hart, might this be a sign?
02:12To join an exercise class?
02:14To slow down.
02:16Take a holiday or two.
02:18Have a rest.
02:20Have we met?
02:22I'm Emma Hart.
02:33I'll be right back.
03:02I'll be right back.
03:31I'll be right back.
03:34Mr. Klinski, do we have any Turkish Delight left?
03:37Oh, I don't imagine so.
03:38There's been such a run on it from all the big houses on the hill.
03:41You wouldn't believe how popular it's been.
03:43The fancy housekeepers have taken two boxes.
03:46But might we find one for Mrs. Easton, do you suppose?
03:55Oh, and you'd be wise to add a tin of pork and one more jar of applesauce, I think.
04:05You're welcome.
04:08Good evening.
04:10Emma, it's Christmas Eve.
04:13Imagine there are stockings that need hanging, trees that need decking.
04:16Oh, tell Edwina I've put one extra sugar mouse in your basket just for her so she is not to
04:23share.
04:23Yeah, I can close up.
04:25You get going.
04:29Oh, I have an ulterior motive.
04:31I'm planning to steal cheese.
04:32Take whatever you can carry.
04:34And I mean it.
04:35I know your family's probably finished celebrating now that Panicca's over,
04:38but we'd love you and Flora to join us tomorrow.
04:41Joe's complaining he can't see kitchen surfaces for food.
04:44Oh, Frank can't come.
04:45Too busy working for his exams.
04:47And Mac's been goodness knows where for months.
04:50Mac always has a mystery girl at a party in every town.
04:53Both mainly.
04:54So no, no one's coming.
04:56Which means there'll be plenty of room for you both if...
04:58Emma, I don't...
05:00I've been happy to help out here over the last couple of years, but...
05:05I can't just pretend to be a regular friend of your family.
05:10I can't.
05:11Merry Christmas, David.
05:40Merry Christmas, David.
05:50Merry Christmas, David.
05:51I think they're here.
05:52I just, um, I didn't...
05:54I'm sorry, I'm...
05:55I'm sorry, I'll leave...
05:57No, don't.
05:58I love you.
05:59Please.
06:01Stay.
06:07I don't come in here often.
06:10I quite understand how occasionally it could be helpful to...
06:16She's everywhere.
06:22It's wretched potions of hers.
06:28Always mysterious.
06:31It's difficult this week, particularly.
06:34She loved Christmas.
06:36Yes.
06:42Oh, no.
06:43There's, uh...
06:44Sit down.
06:45It's all right.
06:47Sit.
06:54There's so many different versions of her on every wall.
06:59She loved it.
07:02I can't bear one mirror most days.
07:07Yet you're more beautiful every minute.
07:09I can't.
07:11I can't.
07:30I can't.
07:32I can't.
07:35I can't.
07:37I can't.
08:05Welcome.
08:06You made it.
08:08It's been an age since you visited.
08:10Aunt Olivia.
08:11Oh, I love your earrings, Olivia.
08:13Happy Christmas.
08:14You're here.
08:16Good.
08:17It's just me and the happy couples.
08:21The standards thriving, I hear.
08:23I've had nothing but good reports.
08:25Hard week, was it?
08:27At the forefront to world news.
08:29Festive joy at armly Christmas fate.
08:33This wood sells.
08:33Well, I'm glad someone finally worked out with us.
08:37The newspaper's been a liability for us for years, but you've made it pay.
08:41I thought the plan was when you took over the paper that it would be nothing but hard-hitting journalism.
08:45I'm saving my stirring editorials about German defence spending for January.
08:53Dinner time.
08:54Drinks, perhaps?
08:55Yes, please.
08:56Drinks, plural.
08:58Oh, and then some kind of parlour game.
09:00Father wants to play a jolly game, Aunt Olivia.
09:02What do you think?
09:03Happy families?
09:05Wink murder?
09:06Gerald.
09:08Leave him.
09:12I'm going out.
09:19It's Christmas Eve.
09:20Does the casino never close?
09:23Listen.
09:24Have you got any cash?
09:25None for you to lose.
09:28I thought the mill was back on an even keel.
09:32Since mother, uh, hasn't it felt like being underwater?
09:42Yes.
09:46Are you getting yourself into trouble?
09:49Christ.
09:50The interest these lone people charge at them.
09:52They're villains.
09:54Hamilton Equitable, they call themselves.
09:56Now they're threatening me with demands for repayment.
10:00My father mustn't know.
10:02But, uh,
10:04I've all but promised them my firstborn.
10:07By Boxing Day.
10:11But to not have a sure thing,
10:12I can make it all back.
10:13And more.
10:15Okay.
10:15Please.
10:17That paper.
10:19Such a financial triumph.
10:21Hmm?
10:23Please.
10:43By Boxing Day.
11:04I'm Jerry. I'm Jerry.
11:05That's right.
11:07That's right.
11:24Look at this pretty one, Daddy.
11:26Wow, that is lovely.
11:28Right, where can we put this one?
11:29There?
11:30Or higher?
11:31Higher, higher.
11:32Higher, you say?
11:33Well, look at this.
11:35Goodness.
11:35Oh, here you are, at last.
11:38You must be exhausted.
11:39Now, where's my favourite girl?
11:41No, down, down, no!
11:45Let's get another one.
11:46Oh, you've already hung the stockings.
11:49Well, Edwina wanted to do them before her baby brother went to bed.
11:53Of course.
11:54And she's been working so hard.
11:59Just like her mum.
12:01Well, the tree looks beautiful.
12:03Give an eye for it, love.
12:06But, there's a gap here, look.
12:08Can we just move this bobble?
12:10No, I want it there!
12:12No!
12:13We had found just the right spot for it, haven't we, sweetheart?
12:16Clever girl.
12:17It's perfect just where you put it.
12:19What about this one, Daddy?
12:21Right, where shall we put that?
12:23Up there?
12:24Okay, try.
12:27Not much, okay?
12:29Right.
12:34Okay.
12:36Come on, boy.
13:01Safely tucked up?
13:03On her back, mouth open.
13:05And Kit's got his blanket.
13:06Mm-hmm.
13:08We have a pack today. Sold all of the fresh stuff.
13:10Just a load of beef and potato pies left in the stock room. I need to shift.
13:18Joe, have you thought any more about the shops?
13:22Hmm? Hardly allowed to these days, am I?
13:24You're welcome to be as involved as you like in the shops.
13:27Am I? And what about your other businesses, the ones that I'm not allowed to know about?
13:31What other businesses?
13:34Anyway, you've got your garden. And your books.
13:39Big reader. That's right. I'm sure that's what the neighbours think of me.
13:46No. What I meant was, if you thought about me buying the shops, having all three in my name.
13:53All the money put away. And I want to pay.
13:59But, for a Christmas present, if you shot a one, I like my name on all of the deeds.
14:06I'm sorry to break it to you, but for almost two years, we've had the same name.
14:12You know what I mean.
14:14I know that. It's time for bed.
14:16I'll kiss the children for you, shall I?
14:17Yeah.
14:18I always kiss the children. I kiss them all the time.
14:20You do?
14:21Yes.
14:21Yes.
14:23Outside of dreading ours.
14:34You do?
14:34Yes.
14:54There it is.
15:10How was your short day?
15:12Sure things like marriages.
15:14Only fools expect they'll work out.
15:16I need more time to throw myself at the mercy of these Hamilton inequitable people.
15:20Make them see sense.
15:21Man to man.
15:23I'll be late for lunch.
15:25Don't tell father.
15:38Oh, so good.
15:40Oh, my God.
15:54Could have had the maids come in to at least do dinner.
15:57They have families of their own to be with.
15:58And you don't run up to Christmas.
16:03Obviously, the shop comes first.
16:06But I must say, I did hope that today...
16:08Today I have a million things to do.
16:09But you sit, please.
16:11Sit.
16:15What time did you go up?
16:16I was hoping we might get to, er...
16:19lie-in.
16:20I'm going to fall short in that department.
16:21No, I just meant...
16:23Kate, Kate, Kate!
16:25She's wanting me all long.
16:27No, love.
16:27We don't have chocolate for breakfast.
16:29And the Yule Log's for later, so...
16:31It's Christmas.
16:32No, Jo, she mustn't.
16:35Not the whole thing.
16:36All right, where's the heart?
16:37Don't give it to her!
16:40Now, look!
16:40The waste!
16:47It looks like you've got this under control.
16:50Anyone want to play a game?
16:57Love, you're just over there.
16:58You've got that nice, mate.
17:01Good chance.
17:02You've got to keep it in your room.
17:07I'm just trying to fill the gaps a bit.
17:10When we were children,
17:12Adele and I used to decorate place settings
17:15with people's names.
17:16You know, which cost nothing, of course.
17:19I didn't know if Edwin and Gerald
17:20would think it a bit silly.
17:21Too much, probably.
17:23You're doing a wonderful job.
17:28I just wanted to make it, well,
17:30if not perfect, then at least bearable.
17:37Where would we have been without you
17:39in these last few years?
17:42And before that,
17:43I realise,
17:44for years,
17:46decades,
17:48you're always there.
17:53Well,
17:56Olivia.
18:02Is that it?
18:04Adele's ring, yes.
18:04She'll be so glad for you to have it.
18:10Darling,
18:12will you be my wife?
18:16Yes.
18:23Yes.
18:30Yes.
18:34Now,
18:37they're the boys.
18:38Please.
19:27Oh, not today, Charlotte.
19:29What's to do there if it's shut?
19:30I'm fetching another Yule log.
19:33Also, I've had an idea about those beef and potato pies.
19:35They need shifted.
19:36Emma, it's Christmas Day.
19:37Get back soon, love.
19:37Look, I'm gone.
20:02You look lovely.
20:07I suppose we should go downstairs.
20:10Yes.
20:11I don't want you to look like we're hiding.
20:16But first...
20:35It's beautiful.
20:40Thank goodness.
20:43It was a risk, but I know with my mother, remembering's good.
20:52And last year, our first Christmas, we hardly knew each other.
20:56So I can't even remember what I got you.
20:59Something unimaginative, I expect.
21:00Yeah, like chocolates.
21:14I love them.
21:20Oh, never mind the Balkans.
21:22Ask with.
21:23Ask with his real threat.
21:24No telling me that if the French went to war, he wouldn't follow them without a second thought.
21:28Like a shot, but it won't come to that.
21:29Well, better ask his wife.
21:32Ask what tells everything to his wife.
21:34And Lloyd George tells everything to other people's wives.
21:41Speaking of wives...
21:43Speaking of wives...
21:48Show them.
22:02Oh, congratulations.
22:08Edwin, I know that this must be...
22:10I'm making an honest woman out of her, Edwin.
22:12And she is making me...
22:14The happiest man in the world.
22:24Congratulations, Aunt Olivia.
22:42You really must release yourself of it, Olivia.
22:46This shame of yours, this guilt.
22:52It's exhausting.
23:00Excuse me, I have a bit of a headache.
23:08Your brother didn't save any danger to join us.
23:34You really must be...
23:36You really must be...
23:37You really must be...
23:37You really must be...
23:37You really must be...

29:24Finally, the football ship's here.
29:26Oh well, getting infected.
29:34I got the Yule log.
29:36Well, that's good, because we're going to need all the supplies that we can get.
29:39Sure, if there'd been no Yule log, I'd have had my coat on and be striking out that door.
29:45What's a Yule log?
29:49You came.
29:56Happy Christmas.
30:00Morning.
30:01You alright?
30:02I am now.
30:04Max got a surprise of his own.
30:12Oh, I'm sorry.
30:15Hello.
30:16Emma, this is Laura.
30:19My friend.
30:21A special friend.
30:23A special friend?
30:24Isn't that great news?
30:26It is.
30:27Of course it is.
30:29I kept telling Mac it wasn't a day for Interproductions, but you know what he's like.
30:34He did tell you I was coming.
30:40Of course.
30:41Welcome.
30:42Welcome indeed.
30:44And for goodness sake, let's have a drink, shall we?
30:47I can't see you.
30:48Go go.
31:05Go go!
31:08Go go!
31:10You're a cleared for life.
31:10And we're coming.
31:11Wait!
31:11I don't know.
31:16You're a cold one.
31:19Oh, my God.
31:47Oh, my God.
32:27Am I an ill-mannered brute, no warning, and an uninvited guest in tow?
32:34Oh, a dreadful brute. Always.
32:40You're always, always welcome.
32:44The best one you've introduced, so I'm guessing Laura's not like the others.
32:49The many others.
32:50That's nice. A lot of it.
32:53I barely know any girls at all.
33:02Not in danger of settling down, are you?
33:06Jane O'Neill.
33:09Sure. It takes a special girl to get a proposal from me.
33:14Okay, my heart.
33:18Do I still have a wife?
33:20Presents? We've waited long enough.
33:23No!
33:28No!
33:58Later on, perhaps,
33:59you can't give a man a present and not let him open it.
34:03What is it, Daddy?
34:05My love, your gift is outside the front of the house.
34:09Is it a treasure hunt?
34:11Treasure hunt! Treasure hunt!
34:14Outdoors? I mean, what needs to be kept cold?
34:16A beer?
34:17Not a beef and potato pie.
34:25Daddy, look! Is it for you?
34:28Not for me.
34:31No, Emma!
34:32I know you want to, though.
34:34Yeah, but I never dreamed it.
34:38Have you seen this?
34:40The car from my beautiful, hard-working wife.
34:44No more hardship for Emma Hart, eh?
34:48Well done, my morning.
34:49Let's go for an adventure!
35:00I have an unimaginative gift I need help with.
35:04Thanks.
35:06My husband hasn't shown his devotion to me with cheap chocolates.
35:09You know, these are definitely mid-range.
35:20I don't agree with everything Mr Fairley says, but...
35:25I'm sure he's right, that your sister would want you to be happy.
35:30Who knows what Adele would have wanted.
35:34She didn't know herself, I suspect.
35:37All I know is how strange it feels with her gone.
35:44It's as if everything's gone dark.
35:50People leave us, but the love doesn't.
35:53You think you can't stand it, the grief.
35:57Then, one day, it starts to become bearable.
36:01The sun comes out.
36:06Olivia!
36:09Where have you got to?
36:11Olivia!
36:17We can look for it ourselves all we like,
36:19but what we're all hoping for is that love finds us.
36:23Don't you think?
36:25Real love.
36:28The kind you don't have to question.
36:52No.
36:55You saw Edwin's reaction.
36:56He was horrified.
36:58And if we think that anyone at all will feel any differently,
37:01then we're lying to ourselves.
37:03I mean, for God's sake, I don't feel any differently.
37:04It is horrifying.
37:07So...
37:08I can't do it.
37:09I'm sorry.
37:09I can't.
37:12I can't.
37:13I can't do it.
37:14I can't do it.
37:21So it was all for nothing then.
37:27Adele's death
37:30You broke your sister's heart
37:32She drank herself to death
37:35We all lost her
37:36We all suffered this
37:38Unimaginable, utter misery
37:40But for no reason
37:46Olivia
37:49If we don't legitimize this
37:51If we don't show the world
37:53That you and I weren't just fooling around
37:57Then
37:59How do you explain
38:00What the hell you're still doing here
38:03What's been going on in this house
38:06How
38:07Do we explain it to the boys
38:31Now
38:32Come on
38:33It's Christmas
38:34What are we playing?
38:36Schuance
38:49For my beautiful wife
38:51Who needs the shop
38:53All three
38:54All in your name
38:56Merry Christmas
38:57Yeah
38:58Yeah
38:59I want to pay for them
39:00I mean it
39:02I've all the money saved
39:03Very, very fast
39:04Hold on
39:06That car was some present
39:16Joe deserves some consolation
39:18For his absentee wife
39:20And he deserves not to feel
39:24Stuck
39:25Also
39:26You deserve a husband
39:27Who can speed you up and down
39:29In a fancy sports car
39:32He did want a car
39:34It's just
39:35It may be he wanted
39:37Other things more
39:43It can be lonely
39:46Am I right?
39:50Having purpose
39:52Being so
39:54Certain
39:55Every day
39:56Not everyone understands
39:58So
39:59It can be lonely
40:08Laura's wonderful
40:10She's a good woman
40:11Seems stuck on you
40:14Can you blame the girl?
40:18She's not like us though
40:21Well what relief
40:22Well she wants a quiet life
40:24Although did you see her
40:25In the passenger seat?
40:26Screaming
40:27She was
40:29She's a dark horse
40:30Yes
40:31Say that
40:37I'm glad you like her
40:39So
40:41That's important
40:47I'm buying the shops from Joe
40:49All of them
40:51And I've got myself a present too
40:59You're looking at the new owner
41:01Of Fairley Mill
41:06Because when you're busy
41:08Making sacrifices every day
41:10You deserve the odd reward
41:15You're doing it Emma
41:17Oh
41:18You're doing this
41:19I am
41:21I am
41:22And I'm only just beginning
41:32Check the shops
41:34Emma
41:35I want to
41:36Please
41:36To feel safe
41:42How was it?
41:43Oh
41:45She's a dream
41:45The car ran the wife
41:49Thank you
41:50I wanted you to have something you loved
41:53So did I
42:00I want to

42:13We want to get your pressure

42:19I am
42:20I am
42:22That's more important eh
42:24Than family
42:27Come here
42:37Where the hell have you been?
42:39You've missed quite a day
42:41Did you at least manage to buy yourself more time?
42:45Joe
42:48Mother was the only one who thought anything of me wasn't she?
42:52Is this about the debt?
42:53Gerald
42:54It's just money it doesn't matter
42:56It's gone
42:57The mill's gone she's taken it
43:00Who has?
43:00Who's taken it?
43:01Your little whore
43:03Emma Hart
43:07Strutting around like she's anything more than just a tramp maid
43:11And she's dangerous she won't stop there
43:14But we can make sure she gets what's coming to her
43:17Can't we Edwin?
43:20We'll remind Emma Hart who she really is
43:23We'll make her sorry
43:24Won't we?
43:25Stop
43:26Stop
43:26Stop
43:30Stop
43:31Stop
