TVTranscript
00:04And, of course, I shall be in Rome next month, so I look forward to discussing your thoughts on my
00:11proposals in person.
00:13Meanwhile, my assistant will be booking my next week's appointments, as I shall only be on my business trip for
00:20another three days at most.
00:24The doctors say a week, at least.
00:28Nobody must know, Jerry. Any weakness just plays into their hands. I shall only be on my business trip for
00:35another three days at most.
00:38And also, have there been any calls, Jerry?
00:45Hundreds. I've had side texts on the phone day and night.
00:47No, no. Not work calls. Calls from the family.
00:52I've not let anyone know you're ill, Mrs. Hart, at your instruction.
00:57Of course.
00:59We both know there's someone who would want to be informed.
01:03If Paula knew you were ill, she'd be frantic.
01:20Are you feeling...
01:22Better.
01:23I miss her, of course.
01:26But better than before.
01:29Better than...
01:30How fucking dare she?
01:32Yeah, but actually, how dare she?
01:34Telling me who to love, then just swanning off on some mystery trip.
01:38She makes me so fucking angry.
01:41People that we love do that.
01:48I love you.
01:50I love you.
01:52Jim.
01:53I tried to stop.
01:59I don't think it works like that.
02:06Go home, Jerry, and tell that boyfriend of yours, when his show opens, I shall be wanting front row seats.
02:14Mrs. Hart, might this be a sign?
02:17To join an exercise class?
02:20To slow down.
02:21Take a holiday or two.
02:23Have a rest.
02:24Have we met?
02:28I'm Emma Hart.
02:32I'm Emma Hart.
02:54I'm Emma Hart.
02:56I'm Emma Hart.
03:02I'm Emma Hart.
03:14I'm Emma Hart.
03:15I'm Emma Hart.
03:24His name is Uman.
03:31Oh, Merry Christmas.
03:39Hello.
03:41Nice to see you again.
03:43Mr. Kalinsky, do we have any Turkish delight left?
03:46Oh, I don't imagine so.
03:48There's been such a run on it from all the big houses on the hill.
03:51You wouldn't believe how popular it's been.
03:52The fancy housekeepers have taken two boxes.
03:56But might we find one for Mrs. Easton, do you suppose?
04:06Success.
04:07Well then, I'd better take both.
04:11Oh, and you'd be wise to add a tin of pork and one more jar of applesauce, I think.
04:17You're welcome.
04:19Good evening.
04:22Emma?
04:23It's Christmas Eve.
04:25Imagine there are stockings that need hanging.
04:26Trees that need decking.
04:29Oh, tell Edwina I've put one extra sugar mouse in your basket just for her, so she is not to
04:35share.
04:36I can close up.
04:37You get going.
04:41Oh, I have an ulterior motive.
04:43I'm planning to steal cheese.
04:45Take whatever you can carry.
04:47And I mean it.
04:48I know your family's probably finished celebrating now that Hanukkah's over, but we'd love you and Flora to join us
04:52tomorrow.
04:53Joe's complaining he can't see kitchen surfaces for food.
04:57Oh, Frank can't come.
04:58Too busy working for his exams.
05:00And Mac's been goodness knows where for months.
05:03Mac always has a mystery girl or a party in every town.
05:06Both mainly.
05:08So no, no one's coming.
05:10Which means there will be plenty of room for you both if...
05:12Emma, I don't...
05:14I've been happy to help out here over the last couple of years, but...
05:19I can't just pretend to be a regular friend of your family.
05:24I can't.
05:26Merry Christmas, David.
05:29Merry Christmas, David.
06:06I think they're here.
06:08I just, um, I didn't...
06:10I'm sorry.
06:12I'm sorry.
06:13I'll leave.
06:13No, don't.
06:14I love you.
06:15Please.
06:17Stay.
06:24I don't come in here often.
06:27But I quite understand how occasionally it could be helpful to...
06:31Hmm.
06:34She's everywhere.
06:40It's wretched potions of hers.
06:46Always mysterious.
06:49It's difficult this week, particularly.
06:53She loved Christmas.
06:55Yes.
07:00Oh, no.
07:02I'm sorry.
07:02It's, uh...
07:03Sit down.
07:04It's all right.
07:06Sit.
07:14There's so many different versions of her on every wall.
07:18She loved it.
07:22I can't bear one mirror most days.
07:27Yet you are more beautiful every minute.
07:51She'll be wondering where.
07:56She'll be wondering where...
07:57Bishik.
08:29Welcome.
08:30You made it.
08:31It's been an age since you visited.
08:33Aunt Olivia.
08:34Oh, I love your earrings, Olivia.
08:36Happy Christmas.
08:38You're here.
08:40Good.
08:41It's just me and the happy couples.
08:45Standards thriving, I hear.
08:47I've had nothing but good reports.
08:49Hard week, was it?
08:51At the forefront of world news.
08:53Festive joy at armly Christmas fate.
08:57It's what sells.
08:58Well, I'm glad someone finally worked out what does.
09:02A lot of newspapers have been a liability for us for years,
09:04but you've made it pay.
09:06I thought the plan was, when you took over the paper,
09:08that it would be nothing but hard-hitting journalism.
09:11I'm saving my stirring editorials about German defence spending
09:13for January.
09:19Dinner time.
09:20And drinks, perhaps?
09:21Yes, please.
09:22Drinks, plural.
09:23Oh, and then some kind of parlour game.
09:26Father wants to play a jolly game, Aunt Olivia.
09:28What do you think?
09:29Happy families?
09:31Wink murder?
09:32Gerald.
09:35Leave him.
09:38I'm going out.
09:46It's Christmas Eve.
09:47Does the casino never close?
09:50Listen.
09:51Have you got any cash?
09:52None for you to lose.
09:55I thought the mill was back on an even keel.

15:57Sure things like marriages.
15:58Only fools expect they'll work out.
16:00I need more time.
16:02I'd throw myself at the mercy of these Hamilton-equitable people.
16:05Make them see sense.
16:06Man to man.
16:09I'll be late for lunch.
16:10Don't tell father.
16:24Oh, it's so good.
16:41Could have had the maids come in to at least do dinner.
16:43They have families of their own to be with.
16:45And you don't run up to Christmas.
16:50Obviously the shop comes first.
16:53But I must say I did hope that today...
16:55Today I have a million things to do.
16:56But you sit, please.
16:59Sit.
17:02What time did you get up?
17:04I was hoping we might get to, er, lay-in.
17:08I fall short in that department.
17:10Not what.
17:11I just meant...
17:11Kate, Kate, Kate!
17:13She's wanting me all along.
17:15No, love, we don't have chocolate for breakfast.
17:17And the Yule Logs for later, so...
17:19It's Christmas.
17:21No, Jo, she mustn't.
17:23Not the whole thing.
17:25Oh, where's the...
17:26Don't give it to her!
17:28Now, look!
17:29The waste!
17:36It looks like you've got this under control.
17:39Anyone want to play a game?
17:47Love, you're just over there.
17:48We'll be fine with this.
17:49Yeah.
17:51All chance.
17:52It's okay.
17:52All right.
17:57Just trying to fill the gaps a bit.
18:00Oh.
18:01When we were children, Adele and I used to decorate place settings with people's names.
18:07You know, which cost nothing, of course.
18:09Mm-hmm.
18:10But I didn't know if Edward and Gerald would think it a bit silly.
18:12Too much, probably.
18:14You're doing a wonderful job.
18:20I just wanted to make it, well, if not perfect, then at least bearable.
18:29Where would we have been without you these last few years?
18:33And before that, I realize, for years, decades, you're always there.
18:46Oh.
18:48Olivia?
18:56Is that a...
18:57Adele's ring, yes.
18:58She'd be so glad for you to have it.
19:03Darling.
19:05Will you be my wife?
19:10Yeah.
19:12Oh, ho, ho.
19:13Oh, ho, ho.
19:29Now, we're the boys.
19:37Oh, ho, ho.
19:43Oh, ho.
19:56Oh, ho.
19:57Aw.
19:58Oh, ho.
20:09Oh, wow.
20:11Good night, Charlie.
20:12Yes, of course, Daddy.
20:15Delicious tea.
20:17Shh, shh, shh, shh.
20:24Oh, not today, Charlie.
20:26What's to do there?
20:27It's shut.
20:28I'm fetching another Yule log.
20:30Also, I've had an idea about those beef and potato pies.
20:33They need shifting.
20:33Emma, it's Christmas Day.
20:34Be back soon, love.
20:36You won't know I'm gone.
21:02You look lovely.
21:06I suppose we should go downstairs.
21:09Yes.
21:10Don't want it to look like we're hiding.
21:14But first...
21:35It's beautiful.
21:41Thank goodness.
21:44It was a risk, but I know with my mother, remembering's good.
21:54And last year, our first Christmas, we hardly knew each other.
21:58So I can't even remember what I got you.
22:00Something unimaginative, I expect.
22:02Like...
22:03Chocolates.
22:17I love them.
22:20Mmm.
22:23Oh, never mind the Balkans.
22:25Asquith.
22:26Asquith is the real threat.
22:27You're telling me that if the French went to war, he wouldn't follow them without a second thought.
22:31Like a shot, but it won't come for that.
22:33Well, better ask his wife.
22:35Asquith tells everything to his wife.
22:38And Lloyd George tells everything to other people's wives.
22:40Mmm.
22:45Speaking of wives.
22:53I'll show them.
23:05Oh, congratulations.
23:13Edwin, I know this must be...
23:15I'm making an honest woman out of her, Edwin.
23:18And she is making me...
23:19The happiest man in the world.
23:27Congratulations.
23:31Aunt Olivia.
23:49You really must release yourself of it, Olivia.
23:53This shame of yours, this guilt.
23:59It's exhausting.
24:08Excuse me, I have a bit of a headache.
24:16Your brother didn't save any danger to join us.
24:38I know you, my brother.
24:38It really didn't really make me scarred back in the house.
24:43My brother's buried.
24:44Professor Iion.
25:03Congratulations, Pilamy.
25:03Fifty-seven i Hs street.
25:05Is that right?
25:06What you doing here?
25:07Mr. Commissioner Iion Sou much better than my wife.
25:08I could ask you the same.
25:09But the gold letters outside give you away.
25:12Why have you come, Joel Fairley?
25:14Mr Fairley, to you.
25:17And I have a letter for Hamilton Equitable.
25:21Then I'd better take it.
25:25Our place has to be, even if you don't.
25:27Muld wine, mince pies, and the like.
25:29To hand over the letter, you've gone to all the trouble of bringing me
25:32and take your leave.
25:34You're Hamilton Equitable?
25:36You're in the money-lending business.
25:38Only to you.
25:39Heard you got yourself into trouble, as the weak often do,
25:41and saw an opportunity.
25:42Now get out of my shop, leave any correspondence you have on the mat,
25:45and I'll reply after Christmas.
25:47This is the best Christmas present I could ever have.
25:50Well, this hears me thinking that I had to pay that money back.
25:53To hand was an Equitable, some kind of real firm.
25:56No, it's real, all right.
25:57Some little jumped-up housemaid bearing a grudge because she got rejected
26:00is no real business.
26:01Take that up with the team of lawyers who have verified my interest rates
26:05and the contract you signed.
26:06Now get out of my shop.
26:09And I want that money back tomorrow as agreed.
26:13I think you're clever, don't you?
26:16Where's the child, Emma Hart?
26:19I haven't got a child.
26:20Oh, come on.
26:21Where's the child you had that belongs to my brother?
26:24I did not have your brother's baby.
26:26Thank you for that.
26:29You're nothing but a whore.
26:30A good one, I have no doubt, but nonetheless, a whore.
26:36Edwin told me the whole sorry tale late one night.
26:39Tears in his eyes.
26:40I don't know what story he's told you or himself,
26:42but I didn't have Edwin's child.
26:44Does your father know how much debt you're in?
26:47I know your game, Emma Hart.
26:49I know it's common practice with tramps from the working class
26:52that you'll turn up with your child at some stage
26:54to blackmail our family.
26:56Well, you've had enough money out of me.
27:02You know Edwin's married now, don't you?
27:07Not that his wife gives him what he wants.
27:11Not like you did, I'm sure.
27:15I saw how stuck on you Edwin was.
27:17So I imagine you know how to move those hips of yours,
27:20don't you?
27:21Oh, come on.
27:22You gave it up willingly enough for Edwin, didn't you?
27:24And I'm not about taking his seconds.
27:28What's the matter?
27:29I was like you were ready any time of day or night.
27:32As your Christmas spirit, Emma Hart, I can see you.
27:35Put on your little dress for me.
27:37Get off!
27:38I used to see you in my house.
27:40As I'm watching.
27:43When I always knew what you wanted.
27:45Yes, yes.
27:46And so did I.
27:47So did I.
27:49Yes, you do.
27:50I knew you.
27:52I can tell.
27:53I can tell.
27:55Huh?
28:00Oh!
28:01Oh!
28:03Oh!
28:05Oh!
28:06Oh!
28:07Oh!
28:15That is the final deposit in settlement of my account.
28:27Get out because I mean I will kill you.
28:29I will.
28:31I will.
28:31I like a tiger.
28:33I like you wild.
28:35Emma Hart.
28:36You are nothing, Cheryl Fairley.
28:39You are an insignificant man who's had every advantage his whole life.
28:43Yet the only way you feel like a winner is to use physical strength for approximately 15 seconds.
28:49Well, your body might be stronger than mine, but your resolve never will be.
28:53Your filthy animal needs will never match the lust, the fire that burns inside of me.
28:58Because my desire is destruction.
29:01And I'll never stop.
29:02Not ever.
29:03Not till I've ruined you and every other member of your self-absorbed, privileged and spineless family.
29:09You boring little tramp.
29:10And as for the money you owe, check your contract.
29:12I'm calling in your collateral.
29:17You...
29:18You couldn't.
29:19One signature from me and it's done.
29:21When I sign that paper, every brick of Fairley Mill will belong to me.
29:25And I'll leave it up to you to explain to your dad why you put it up as security.
29:28Because this is just the start.
29:30I won't stop making your family pay till every Fairley living mourns the day they ever heard the name Emma
29:35Hart.
29:41It's a happy Christmas, Gerald Fairley.
29:44From all Hamilton Equitable and Hart Enterprises.
29:57Go! Go!
30:10Go!
30:11Go!
30:20Go!
30:24Go!
30:25Go!
30:27Go!
30:28Go!
30:30Go!
30:31Go!
30:32Go!
30:32Go!
30:32Go!
30:33Go!
30:34Go!
30:51Finally. Shop all shipshape. All well? Feeling better?
31:02I got the Yule log.
31:04Well, that's good, because we're going to need all the supplies that we can get.
31:07Sure, if there'd been no Yule log, I'd have had my coat on and striding out that door.
31:13What's a Yule log?
31:17You came.
31:25Happy Christmas.
31:29Good morning. You all right?
31:31I am now.
31:34Max's got a surprise of his own.
31:41Oh, I'm sorry. Hello.
31:46Emma, this is Laura. My friend.
31:51A special friend? Isn't that great news?
31:56It is. Of course it is.
31:59I kept telling Mac it wasn't a day of Fringe Productions, but you know what he's like.
32:05He did tell you I was coming.
32:10Of course. Welcome. Welcome indeed.
32:15And for goodness sake, let's have a drink, shall we?
32:26Oh.
32:30Oh.
32:32Oh.
32:42Oh.
32:45Oh.
32:45Oh.
32:46Oh.
32:47Oh.
32:47Oh.
32:48Oh, God.
33:21Oh, God.
34:04Am I an ill-mannered brute?
34:06No warning.
34:08And an uninvited guest in total.
34:11Oh, a dreadful brute.
34:13Always.
34:17But always, always welcome.
34:22The first one you've introduced, so I'm guessing Laura's not like the others, the many others.
34:27That's nice, the lot of it.
34:30But I barely know any girls at all.
34:40Not in danger of settling down, are you?
34:44Jane O'Neill.
34:47Sure.
34:49It takes a special girl to get a proposal from me.
34:53Emma Hart.
34:57Do I still have a wife?
34:59Presents!
35:00We've waited long enough.
35:02No.
35:07Yeah.
35:19No.
35:22No.
35:22No.
35:23No.
35:24No.
35:28No.
35:39Later on, Pat.
35:40You can't give a man a present and not let him open it.
35:44Give it, Daddy.
35:46My love, your gift is outside the front of the house.
35:50Is it a treasure hunt?
35:52Treasure hunt! Treasure hunt!
35:55Outdoors. I mean, what needs to be kept cold?
35:58A beer?
35:59Not a beef and potato pie.
36:07Daddy, look. Is it for you?
36:10It's not for me.
36:13No, Emma.
36:15I know you want to be.
36:16Yeah, but I never dreamed it.
36:20Have you seen this?
36:23The car from my beautiful, hard-working wife.
36:27No more hardship for Emma Hart, eh?
36:31Well done, my morning.
36:44I have an unimaginative gift I need help with.
36:49Nice.
36:50Well, my husband hasn't shown his devotion to me with cheap chocolates.
36:54No, these are definitely mid-range.
37:05I don't agree with everything Mr. Fairley says, but I'm sure he's right, that your sister would want you to
37:13be happy.
37:16Who knows what a tell would have wanted.
37:20She didn't know herself, I suspect.
37:23All I know is how strange it feels with her gone.
37:30It's as if everything's gone dark.
37:36People leave us, but the love doesn't.
37:40You think you can't stand it, the grief.
37:44Then one day it starts to become bearable.
37:49The sun comes out.
37:53Olivia!
37:56Olivia!
37:57Where have you got to?
37:58Olivia!
38:05We can look for it ourselves all we like, but what we're all hoping for is that love finds us.
38:11Don't you think?
38:13Real love.
38:16The kind you don't have to question.
38:41No, thank you.
38:44You saw Edwin's reaction.
38:46He was horrified.
38:48And if we think that anyone at all will feel any differently, then we're lying to ourselves.
38:53I mean, for God's sake, I don't feel any differently.
38:55It is horrifying.
38:57So,
38:58I can't do it.
38:59I'm sorry.
39:00I can't.
39:12So, it was all for nothing, then.
39:26So, it was all for nothing, then?
39:30It was all utter misery, but for no reason.
39:41Olivia, if we don't legitimize this, if we don't show the world that you and I weren't just fooling around,
39:49then how do you explain what the hell you're still doing here?
39:56What's been going on in this house?
40:00How do we explain it to the boys?
40:24Now?
40:27Come on, it's Christmas, what are we playing, charades?
40:44For my beautiful wife, the deeds of the shop, all three, all in your name, Merry Christmas.
40:55I want to pay for them, I mean it. I've all the money saved.
41:09That car was some present.
41:13Joe deserves some consolation for his absentee wife.
41:17And he deserves not to feel...
41:21...stuck.
41:22Also, you deserve a husband who can speed you up and down in a fancy sports car.
41:29He did want a car.
41:32It's just, it may be he wanted other things more.
41:41It can be lonely.
41:45Am I right?
41:49Having purpose.
41:51Being so certain every day.
41:54Not everyone understands.
41:57So, it can be lonely.
42:08Laura's wonderful.
42:10She's a good woman.
42:11Seems stuck on you.
42:14Can you blame the girl?
42:15No.
42:18She's not like us, though.
42:21Well, what a relief.
42:22Well, she wants a quiet life.
42:24Although, did you see her in the passenger seat?
42:26Screaming, she was.
42:30She's a dark horse.
42:31Yes.
42:32Tell you that.
42:37I'm glad you like her, though.
42:41I'm glad you like her, though.
42:42That's important.
42:48I'm buying the shops from Joe.
42:50All of them.
42:53And I've got myself a present, too.
43:01You're looking at the new owner of Fairley Mill.
43:09Because when you're busy making sacrifices every day,
43:12you deserve the odd reward.
43:18You're doing it, Emma.
43:21You're doing it.
43:22I am.
43:25And I'm only just beginning.
43:36Check.
43:37The shops.
43:38Emma.
43:39I want to.
43:40Please.
43:41To feel safe.
43:46How was it?
43:49She's a dream.
43:50The car ran the wife.
43:54I wanted you to have something you loved.
43:58So did I.
44:01Hey.
44:05Hello.
44:11You're supposed to be there.
44:12Watch out.
44:13Watch out.
44:15I'm fucking bored, you know.
44:18No.
44:19We wanted to surprise you.
44:20How you doing?
44:21Yeah.
44:23Are you surprised?
44:24I am, my friend.
44:25I am.
44:26I am.
44:27Well, I am.
44:29That's more important, eh?
44:30Than family.
44:33Come here.
