Transcript
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.
05:55I'm sorry.
05:56I'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.
06:27Always mysterious.
06:31It's difficult this week, particularly.
06:34She loved Christmas.
06:36Yes.
06:39Yes.
06:42Oh, no.
06:43There's, uh...
06:44Sit down.
06:45It's all right.
06:47Yeah.
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.
07:30She'd, um...
07:33She'd, um...
08:05Welcome.
08:07You made it.
08:07It'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.
08:22Standards thriving, I hear.
08:23I've had nothing but good reports.
08:25Hard week, was it?
08:27At the forefront of world news.
08:29Festive joy at armly Christmas fate.
08:33This word sells.
08:34Well, I'm glad someone finally worked there with us.
08:37A lot of newspapers have 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.
08:46I'm saving my stirring editorials about German defence spending for January.
08:53Dinner time.
08:54And drinks, perhaps?
08:55Yes, please.
08:56Drinks, plural.
08:58Oh!
08:58And 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?
09:05Joel's.
09:08Leave him.
09:12I'm going out.
09:19It's Christmas Eve.
09:20Does the casino never close?
09:23Listen, have you got any cash?
09:25None for you to lose.
09:28I thought the mill was back on an even keel.
09:33Since Mother, uh...
09:36Hasn't it felt like being underwater?
09:43Yes.
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.
10:01But, uh...
10:04I've all but promised them my firstborn.
10:07By Boxing Day.
10:11But to that I have a sure thing.
10:12I can make it all back.
10:13And more.
10:15Please.
10:17That paper.
10:19Such a financial triumph.
10:23Please.
11:03You're great to see...
11:24Look at this pretty one, Daddy.
11:26That is lovely.
11:27Right.
11:28Where can we put this one?
11:29There?
11:30Or higher?
11:31Higher.
11:32Higher, you say?
11:33Well, look at this.
11:34Goodness!
11:36Oh, here you are, at last.
11:38You must be exhausted.
11:39Now, where's my favourite girl?
11:41No, no, no, 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 over here?
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.
12:22Right.
12:22Where shall we put that?
12:23Oh, that?
12:25Okay.
12:26Let's try.
12:26Come on.
12:28I'm not gonna forget it.
12:30I'm not gonna forget it.
12:34All right.
12:35Come on.
12:37Come on.
12:39Come on.
12:43Come on.
12:52Come on.
12:54Come on.
12:54Come on.
12:56Come on.
12:58Come on.
13:01Come on.
13:03Come on.
13:03My back.
13:03Mouth open.
13:05Kit's got his blanket.
13:07Mm-hmm.
13:07We have a pack today.
13:09Sold all of the fresh stuff.
13:10Just a load of beef and potato pies left in the stock room.
13:13I need to shift.
13:18Joe, have you thought any more about the shops?
13:21Hmm?
13:22Hardly allowed to these days, am I?
13:25You're welcome to be as involved as you like in the shops.
13:27Am I?
13:28And what about your other businesses?
13:29The ones that I'm not allowed to know about?
13:31What other businesses?
13:34Anyway, you've got your garden.
13:37And your books.
13:39Big reader.
13:40That's right.
13:41I'm sure that's what the neighbours think of me.
13:44No.
13:46What I meant was...
13:49Have you thought about me buying the shops?
13:51Having all three in my name?
13:53All the money put away.
13:55And I want to pay.
13:58But...
13:59Or a Christmas present.
14:01Have you shot a one?
14:03I like my name on all of the deeds.
14:06I'm sorry to break it to you.
14:08But 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?
14:18I always kiss the children.
14:19I kiss them all the time.
14:20You do?
14:21Yes.
14:23Outside of dreading hours.
14:25You're the first.
14:25Yes.
14:27...
14:52My...
14:53You're the first.
14:55...no that you don't get me.
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, lie-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!
16:39Now, 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, man.
17:01Good chance.
17:07I'm just trying to fill the gaps a bit.
17:10When we were children, Adele and I used to decorate place settings with people's names.
17:16You know, which cost nothing, of course.
17:19I didn't know if Edwin and Gerald would think it a bit silly.
17:21Too much, probably.
17:23You're doing a wonderful job.
17:28I just wanted to make it, well, if not perfect, then at least bearable.
17:37Where would we have been without you these last few years?
17:42And before that, I realize, for years, decades, we're always there.
17:53Well, Olivia.
18:02Is that it?
18:04Adele's ring, yes.
18:04She'll be so glad for you to have it.
18:10Darling, will you be my wife?
18:16Yes.
18:18Oh!
18:23Oh!
18:24Oh!
18:28Oh!
18:30Yes.
18:34Now, they'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.

29:36Well, that's good, because we're going to need all the supplies that we can get.
29:39Sheriff, if there'd been no Yule log, I'd have had my coat on and been striking out that door.
29:45What's a Yule log?
29:49You came.
29:51You're here.
29:56Happy Christmas.
29:59Morning. You all right?
30:02I am now.
30:04Max got a surprise of his own.
30:12Oh, I'm sorry. Hello.
30:16Emma, this is Laura, my friend.
30:22A special friend?
30:24Isn't that great news?
30:26It is. Of 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.
30:39Of course.
30:41Welcome.
30:42Welcome indeed.
30:44For goodness sake, let's have a drink, shall we?
30:54Oh.
30:58Oh.
31:00Oh.
31:05Oh.
31:07I don't know.
31:44I don't know.
32:13I don't know.
32:28Am I an ill-mannered brute?
32:30No warning.
32:32And an uninvited guest in tow.
32:35Oh, a dreadful brew.
32:36Always.
32:40You're always, always welcome.
32:45That's one you've introduced.
32:46So I'm guessing Laura's not like the others.
32:49The many others.
32:50That's nice.
32:51A lot of it.
32:53I barely know any girls at all.
33:02Not in danger of settling down.
33:04Are you?
33:06Jane O'Neill.
33:09Sure.
33:10It takes a special girl to get a proposal from me.
33:14Okay, my heart.
33:18Do I still have a wife?
33:20Presents?
33:21We've waited long enough.
33:23Yeah.
33:49I don't know.

35:30who knows what Adele would have wanted
35:34she didn't know herself I suspect
35:38all I know is how strange it feels with her gone
35:44it's as if everything's gone dark
35:49people leave us but the love doesn't
35:53you think you can't stand it
35:55the grief
35:57then one day it starts to become bearable
36:02the 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
36:51no
36:52thank you
36:54you saw Edwin's reaction
36:56he was horrified
36:58and if we think that anyone at all
37:00will feel any differently
37:01then we're lying to ourselves
37:03I mean for God's sake
37:03I don't feel any differently
37:04it is horrifying
37:06so
37:08I can't do it
37:09I'm sorry
37:09I can't
37:20so it was all for nothing then
37:27Adele's death
