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...
06:16I'm sorry.
06:17You're my...
06:27I don't know.
06:35You're my...
06:36Yes.
06:42Oh, no, there's...
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.
07:06Yet you're more beautiful every minute.
07:30Sit down.
07:32They'll be wandering where...
07:36We should...
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.
08:33It's what sells.
08:34Well, I'm glad someone finally worked there with us.
08:37But the 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.
08:54And drinks, perhaps?
08:55Yes, please.
08:56Drinks, plural.
08:58Oh, and then some kind of parlor 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?
09:22Listen, have you got any cash?
09:25None for you to lose.
09:27I thought the mill was back on an even keel.
09:32This is my burial.
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 up and they'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 I've all but promised them my firstborn.
10:07By boxing day.
10:11But to that I have a sure thing, I can make it all back.
10:13And more.
10:15Please.
10:16Hmm?
10:18That paper.
10:19Such a financial triumph.
10:21Hmm?
10:23Please.
10:25Please.
10:27Please.
10:30Please.
10:31Please.
10:33Please.
10:34Please.
10:36Please.
10:36Please.
10:36Please.
10:42Please.
10:50Please.
11:03Please.
11:24Look at this pretty one, Daddy.
11:26That is lovely.
11:27Right, where can we put this one?
11:29There or higher?
11:31Higher, higher.
11:32Higher, you say?
11:33Well, look at this.
11:35Goodness!
11:36Oh, 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.
12:03You've an eye for it, love.
12:06But there's a gap here, look.
12:08We 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 for good.
12:30Right?
12:34Come on.
13:01Safely tucked up?
13:03On her back, mouth open.
13:05I think it's got his blanket.
13:07We 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?
13:21Hmm?
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, the 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, I'm sure that's what the neighbours think of me.
13:44No.
13:46What I meant was, if you thought about me buying the shops, having all three of my name, have the
13:54money put away, and I want to pay.
13:59But, for a Christmas present, if you're short of one, I like my name and 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?
14:18I always kiss the children.
14:19I kiss them all the time.
14:20You do?
14:21Yes.
14:23Outside of dreading hours.
14:53I'll kiss them all the time.
15:10How was your short day?
15:12Sure things like marriages.
15:14Only fools expect they'll work out.
15:15I need more time to throw myself at the mercy of these Hamilton-equitable people.
15:20Make them see sense.
15:21Man to man.
15:24I'll be late for lunch.
15:25Don't tell father.
15:37Oh, so good.
15:54I could 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?
16:02Run 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.
16:10Please.
16:11Sit.
16:15What time did you get up?
16:16I was hoping we might get to, er...
16:19lie-in.
16:20I'm going to fall short in that department.
16:22No, I just meant...
16:23Kate! Kate! Kate!
16:24She's wanting the Yule log.
16:27No, love, we don't have chocolate for breakfast.
16:29On the Yule logs for later, so...
16:31It's Christmas.
16:32No, Jo, she mustn't.
16:35Not the whole thing.
16:36Oh, where's the hell?
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?
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.
17:16Which 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 were 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 realise...
17:44For years, decades, I've been always there.
17:54Well, Olivia.
18:02Is that...
18:03Adele's ring, yes.
18:04She'll be so glad for you to have it.
18:10Darling.
18:11Will you be my wife?
18:15Ah...
18:16Yeah.
18:18Ah...
18:20Oh...
18:27Oh...
18:30Yes.
18:31Yes.
18:32Yes.
18:34Yes.
18:35Now...
18:37Yes.
18:40Yes.
18:46Yes.
18:46Yes.
18:47Not yet.
18:49Yes.
19:02Yes.SCI.
19:04Yes.
19:26Oh, 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.
19:37Be back soon, love.
19:38No, I'm gone.
20:03You look lovely.
20:07I suppose we should go downstairs.
20:10Yes.
20:11I don't want you to look like we're hiding.
20:17But 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, like chocolates.
21:14I love them.
21:20Oh, never mind the Balkans.
21:22Asquith.
21:23Asquith is the 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.
21:32Asquith tells everything to his wife.
21:34And Lloyd George tells everything to other people's wives.
21:37Hmm.
21:41Speaking of wives...
21:49Show them.
21:51Hmm.
21:53Hmm.
22:00Oh.
22:02Congratulations.
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.
22:22Congratulations.
22:25Aunt Olivia.
22:42You really must release yourself of it, Olivia.
22:46This shame of yours, this guilt.
22:51It's exhausting.
23:01Excuse me, I have a bit of a headache.
23:08Your brother didn't save any danger to join us.

23:28I have a bit of a headache.

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?
29:48You came.
29:51You're here.
29:56Happy Christmas.
30:00Morning, you all right?
30:02I am now.
30:04Max got a surprise of his own.
30:12Oh, I'm sorry.
30:15Hello.
30:16Emma, this is Laura, my friend.
30:22A 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.
30:39Of course.
30:41Welcome.
30:42Welcome indeed.
30:44For goodness sake, let's have a drink, shall we?
30:54Oh.
31:04I'm sorry.
31:11I don't know.
31:46I don't know.
32:13I don't know.
32:16I don't know.
32:27Am I an ill-mannered brute, no warning, and an uninvited guest at all?
32:34Oh, a dreadful brew.
32:36Always.
32:40You're always, always welcome.
32:44The best one you've introduced, so I'm guessing Laura's not like the others, the many others.
32:50That's nice, the lot of it.
32:53I barely know any girls at all.
33:02Not in danger of settling down, are you?
33:06Jane O'Neil?
33:09Sure.
33:10It takes a special girl to get a proposal from me.
33:15I'm a heart.
33:18Do I still have a wife?
33:20Presents?
33:21We've waited long enough.
33:23No.
33:25No.
33:29No.
33:39No.
33:42No.
33:42No.
33:43No.
33:44No.
33:45No.
33:46No.
33:46No.
33:48No.
33:58Later on, Pat.
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!
34:12Treasure hunt!
34:14Outdoors?
34:14I mean, what needs to be kept cold?
34:16A beer?
34:17Yeah.
34:18Not a beef and potato pie.
34:25Daddy, look.
34:26Is it for you?
34:28Not for me.
34:31No, Emma.
34:32I know you want to, Bill.
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 the venture!
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.
35:20I don't agree with everything Mr Fairley says, but I'm sure he's right.
35:27That your sister would want you to be happy.
35:30Who knows what a doll 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.
35:50People 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.
36:02The 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.
36:52No.
36:54You 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, I can't do it.
37:09I'm sorry.
37:09I can't.
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 unimaginable, utter misery.
37:40But, for no reason.
37:46Olivia.
37:49If we don't legitimize this,
37:51if we don't show the world that you and I weren't just fooling around,
37:57then...
37:59how do you explain what the hell you're still doing here?
38:03What's been going on in this house?
38:06How
38:08do we explain it to the boys?
38:31Now.
38:32Come on.
38:34It's Christmas.
38:34What are we playing?
38:36Shall we answer?
38:49For my beautiful wife,
38:51if it leads to the shop,
38:53all three,
38:55all in your name,
38:57Merry Christmas.
38:57Yeah!
38:58Yeah!
38:59I want to pay for them.
39:01I mean it.
39:02I've all the money saved.
39:04Very, very fast.
39:05Hold on.
39:06Hi.
39:09Woo-hoo!
39:13That car was some present.
39:16Joe deserves some consolation for his absentee wife.
39:20and he deserves not to feel
39:23stuck.
39:25Also,
39:26you deserve a husband
39:27who can speed you up and down
39:29in a fancy sports car.
39:31He did want a car.
39:34It's just
39:35that maybe he wanted
39:37other things more.
39:44It can be lonely.
39:47Am I right?
39:51Having purpose.
39:53Being so
39:54certain
39:55every day.
39:57Not everyone understands.
39:59So,
40:00it can be lonely.
40:08Laura's wonderful.
40:10She's a good woman.
40:12Seems stuck on you.
40:14Can you blame the guard?
40:16No.
40:18She's not like us, though.
40:21Well, what relief.
40:22Well, she wants her
40:22a quiet life.
40:24Although,
40:25did you see her
40:25in the passenger seat?
40:26Screaming,
40:27she was.
40:29She's a dark horse.
40:31Yes.
40:31Say that.
40:37I'm glad you like her, though.
40:41That's important.
40:47I'm buying the shops from Joe.
40:49All of them.
40:51And I've got myself
40:52a present, too.
40:59You're looking at the new owner
41:01of Fairley Mill.
41:07Because when you're busy
41:08making sacrifices every day,
41:10you deserve the odd reward.
41:15You're doing it, Emma.
41:18You're doing it.
41:19I am.
41:21I am.
41:22And I'm only just beginning.
41:30Wow.
41:31Wow.
41:32Check the shops.
41:34Emma.
41:35I want to.
41:36Please.
41:37To feel safe.
41:42How was it?
41:43Oh.
41:44She's a dream.
41:46The car ran the wife.
41:50I wanted you to have
41:51something you loved.
41:53So did I.
41:56I wanted you to have
41:59Hello.
42:05You're playing your sport in there.
42:07Watch out.
42:10I'm flicking more,
42:11you know.
42:13We want to get your passion.
42:14Hey, don't we?
42:16Yeah.
42:17Are you surprised?
42:18I am, my friend.
42:20I am.
42:20I am.
42:22It's more important, eh?
42:24and family.
42:27Come here.
42:37Where the hell have you been?
42:40You've missed quite a day.
42:42Did you at least manage
42:42to buy yourself more time?
42:45Gerald.
42:48Mother was the only one
42:49who thought anything of me,
42:50wasn't she?
42:52It's just about the day.
42:54Gerald.
42:54It's just money.
42:55It doesn't matter.
42:56It's gone.
42:57The mill's gone.
42:58She's taken it.
43:00Who has?
43:00Who's taken it?
43:01Your little whore.
43:03Emma Hart.
43:07Strutting around like she's
43:08anything more than just
43:09a tramp maid.
43:11And she's dead.
43:12She won't stop there.
43:14But we can make sure she
43:15gets what's coming to her.
43:17Can't we, Edwin?
43:20We'll remind Emma Hart
43:21who she really is.
43:23We'll make her sorry,
43:24won't we?
