00:21I woke early that morning, a great thought pressing upon me.
00:35I had made my decision.
00:42I knew what I wanted, and today I would seize it.
00:53Fortune favoured the brave, didn't it?
01:09Mr Ryder, I want to hear your thoughts on the book I lent you.
01:14I've made little progress.
01:15What is it that you're reading?
01:17You won't know it.
01:19It is far too trivial for her tastes.
01:25Would you like the preserves, Miss Bennet?
01:28I recommend the strawberry.
01:30Oh, thank you.
01:31The marmalade is most excellent.
01:36Mr Hayward, I am heartened to see you out in public so soon after your disappointment
01:42with Miss Baxter.
01:45The whole situation was so publicly played out, I would have hidden myself away for a year,
01:51at least, with the humiliation of it all.
01:54You are brave.
01:56On the contrary.
01:57Things can happen to any of us, can't they?
02:00Tippers, Miss Bingley.
02:06Pass the coffee pot.
02:08It's empty.
02:14It's quite hard to imagine that later today we will see this thief.
02:17I think I might be the first in my family to climb a mountain.
02:21I think you're right.
02:22It will not disappoint, Miss Bennet.
02:24I can assure you that.
02:26It's extraordinary to think that we'll be following in Mr Wordsworth's steps,
02:31that we'll stand where he stood.
02:34She stood, actually.
02:35It was his sister that climbed Scarfell.
03:02And so our little party has expanded.
03:06Yes.
03:11I know it is not polite of me to say, but I do not care much for Miss Bingley.
03:19Nor I.
03:22I get the feeling that at any moment she might ask me to fetch a coat or polish her shoes.
03:27Well, you'd have to be in possession of ten thousand a year to win the good opinion of Caroline Bingley.
03:34Do you think money is important, Miss Bennet?
03:36You know, Lizzie used to say that it was only when she caught sight of Pemberley that she realised how
03:43much she loved Mr Darcy.
03:47Um...
03:48Six to one odds on Slim and Sprightly at the 420 in York next Tuesday.
03:52On the flat?
03:53Yes.
03:54Yes.
03:55Well, it's a shame it isn't you, Marquis, but you must surely take the odds.
03:58That I will, Miss Bennet, and so must you!
04:01Yes.
04:01Mr Hurst?
04:04Yes.
04:05Yes.
04:06Yes.
04:09Yes.
04:09Oh, what a good idea!
04:12OK, pass it.
04:13Yes.
04:16Yes.
04:25Oh, put some effort into it, Hayward.
04:29You could do with loosening up.
04:38That's it.
04:39That's it.
04:43Tom, I wondered whether you and I might
04:46find some time to discuss
04:48this legal matter today.
04:53Of course.
04:57I'm very delighted.
04:59Come along.
04:59The mountain will not wait.
05:02Let's go.
05:15This is rather marvelous.
05:17This is being new.
05:18Steady on.
05:19Steady on.
05:30Miss Bellet.
05:32Here.
05:34Honeysuckle.
05:35Yes.
05:36Very poisonous to dogs.
05:38But not bears.
05:39Not bears.
05:40Dogs and humans.
05:42It's funny, although it's called Honeysuckle,
05:44if you were to suckle on the berries,
05:46it would leave you quite sick.
05:48Fascinating.
05:50I mean, what I meant to say was, thank you.
05:53My pleasure.
05:59Miss Bellet.
06:02I picked this for you.
06:05Primrose.
06:06The last two primroses of the season.
06:08One for you and one for Miss Bingley.
06:12Very thoughtful.
06:13You must have a fact about primroses, Miss Bellet.
06:15Oh.
06:16Oh.
06:17I shall have to think.
06:18The first to eat a primrose, they say,
06:22will be the first to marry.
06:35Oh, they have hairy undersides.
06:39I beg your pardon?
06:40Uh, primrose leaves.
06:41Because I can do it with you.
06:42I see.
06:44Oh.
06:45There's also something about fairies.
06:46I probably should have led with that.
06:49Miss Bellet, you always make me see the world in a new light.
06:55Oh.
06:56Oh.
06:59Shall we?
07:15Sheep, be seen.
07:16Glorious.
07:38I do hope the hearsts are not finding it too taxing.
07:40Oh, yes.
07:42I offered Mrs. Hurst my arm when we forwarded the string,
07:45but she brushed me off quite brusquely.
07:47She obviously possesses the same gentle charm as her sister.
07:53Look at this!
07:56Isn't it marvellous?
07:58Really, really is.
08:00I think we'll have to accompany the Hursts back down.
08:04Really?
08:05Oh, they have no wish to continue,
08:07but unfortunately no recollection of the path we walked to get here.
08:11Well, they thought they just head downwards.
08:13Well, the inn will be peaceful this afternoon.
08:18Everyone will be out.
08:21Very good.
08:23We shouldn't risk the hearst getting lost.
08:26No.
08:27Are you happy to continue without us, Mary?
08:29Of course.
08:30I want to hear all about the view when you return
08:33and take good care of her, won't you?
08:36I will.
08:38I'll race you down.
08:40You're on.
08:41Well, there we are.
08:42It's been revealed.
08:43I'm not pissed.
08:44Onwards we go.
08:49Oh.
08:56Mr. Ryder, perhaps it's a big leap to the greater...
08:59Wait for me?
09:00Thanks, indeed.
09:19I'll see you.
09:28That way lies the Solway Firth, and then Scotland.
09:36And then beyond that?
09:38Beyond that is the sea.
09:58What would your mother say?
10:01If she could see you now.
10:06She would likely tell me that the winds have ruined my hair.
10:14The vastness of the landscape, but almost overwhelming.
10:21It is.
10:24It reminds me how small and insignificant we are.
10:29How, in the blink of an eye, we, everything that we have created, will be gone.
10:38Do you think there's a lesson here, Miss Bennett?
10:42That during our short time on this earth, we should be brave.
10:47Follow our hearts.
10:52Perhaps there is.
10:56Perhaps now would be a good time to continue our conversation from the boat yesterday.
11:00Well, I, uh...
11:03Yes.
11:04Yes.
11:07Though I spend so much of my time absorbed in poetry when it comes to my own emotions, I...
11:27Well, I do not always find it easy, knowing where to begin.
11:31I understand.
11:33Yes.
11:39Miss Bennett...
11:49I am most glad that we were able to see this.
11:53To be here, together.
11:57As am I.
12:00You know that I've grown so fond of you.
12:04So fond of you during our time together.
12:08And are you?
12:09Yes.
12:12There is no one I long to talk to like I do you.
12:16No one.
12:19No one who makes me feel more like me.
12:24If that makes any sense at all.
12:26It does.
12:26It does.
12:27Yes, it does.
12:27No, it absolutely does.
12:30Yes.
12:32Yes.
12:35I wondered if you might...
12:36Tom!
12:38If.
12:38If.
12:39If I might.
12:40Tom, I beg a word with you.
12:42William, please give us a moment.
12:43We're just in the middle of a conversation.
12:45Yes.
12:46I'm afraid I really must insist.
12:48I'll be brief.
12:49It is very important.
12:51We...
12:52We will continue.
12:57Yes.
13:00Now, Tom, we must discuss my financial affairs.
13:05You see...
13:23Do you know what legal matter Mr Ryder wished to speak to Mr Hayward about so urgently?
13:28Something to do with his aunt, Lady Catherine de Boer.
13:32I...
13:32I...
13:33I could not wait.
13:35Evidently not.
13:45Excuse us.
13:47Business talk, I'm afraid.
13:49And is the matter resolved?
13:52Yes.
13:53Yes, I'd say it is.
14:01Sit.
14:04Would you like an egg?
14:17Well, now...
14:19Where were we?
14:20Huh?
14:24What were you saying, Mr Hayward, when, um...
14:26Mr Ryder came over?
14:27I'm sorry.
14:29I cannot do this anymore.
14:32My circumstances have changed.
14:34What has happened?
14:36Please forgive me.
14:39Miss Bennet.
14:45Mr Hayward?
14:54Miss Bennet.
14:56Shall we take in the views and see what inspiration Wordsworth can give us?
15:05I wandered lonely as a cloud
15:07That floats on high, oh, vales and hills
15:10When all at once I saw a crowd
15:13A host of golden daffodils
15:17Beside the lake, beneath the trees
15:20Fluttering and dancing in the breeze
15:25Continuous as the stars that shine
15:27And twinkle on the milky way
15:30They stretched a never-ending line
15:33Along the margin of a bay
15:43I think that might be the inn
15:47It's moving
15:50Or a sheep
15:53How does Mr Hayward seem to you?
15:55Is he quite all right?
15:57Mr Hayward?
15:58I think so
15:59Mr Ryder
16:01Mr Hayward
16:02A word
16:02One moment
16:03Now
16:10Mr Hayward
16:11I think it's going to break up all the terrain like this
16:14I understand
16:16We need to make our way down the mountain
16:19What?
16:20Why?
16:21What has happened?
16:22There's a storm coming in
16:23But we've only just arrived
16:25And we need to rest before heading back down
16:28Nevertheless, the storm is brewing
16:31We need to start our descent immediately
16:34How does he know?
16:35He says there's been a change in the air
16:38I mean, I can't feel it is
16:40Well, he can, and he is our guide
16:43So we should leave
16:45I was only saying that I could not feel
16:47Please, let us gather our things or
16:48Hayward, I don't think we need to leave immediately
16:51Earlier it seemed as though a storm was brewing
16:53And nothing happened
16:54Yes, and this guide is not the sharpest fellow I've ever met
16:57So I say we stay here a little longer
17:00He knows the skies and he knows the area
17:02Miss Bingley
17:06What do you think, Miss Bennet?
17:09Can you imagine what it would be like
17:12To experience a storm from up here?
17:15To watch it come in?
17:16Yes, that would be quite unforgettable
17:18And did Wordsworth himself not tell us
17:21That no traveller should grudge a little inconvenience
17:25To witness such a sight as a storm?
17:27It is a privilege to witness such a demonstration of nature's power
17:32I am not sure what privilege there is in being soaked to the skin
17:34A little rain is of no concern to me
17:36Well, you are not the only person here
17:37I think we should stay a while longer
17:39And I think we should experience a storm
17:41Just as Wordsworth did
17:43That is the spirit, Miss Bennet
17:44But our guide has told us that we should leave
17:46Miss Bennet, I appeal to your rational mind
17:50Right, I am leaving this minute
17:51And I suggest you follow
17:53Or else I will inform the others
17:55They have a rather long wait for you
17:57Has he just left us?
17:58I believe he has
18:00This is not like you at all
18:03Oh!
18:04Oh, it is I who has changed, is it?
18:06Yes
18:08Oh, well perhaps I'm
18:09I'm tired of my old character
18:11I wish to try a new one
18:12Well, I'm sorry to hear that
18:13I was fond of the old, Mary
18:19I shall be sure to tell her that
18:21For she has wondered many times today
18:22What your true feelings were
18:27Sometimes in life we must seize the moment
18:29And we must finish what we set out to do
18:32Without letting anything get in our way
18:36I am sorry to have disappointed you
19:03There was a roaring in the wind all night
19:05The rain came heavy and fell in the floods
19:09Quite extraordinary
19:31I think perhaps now we should go
19:33Magnificent
19:34Nevertheless, I think we should head back
19:36Ha ha!
19:37This is not the most extraordinary sight
19:39You've ever laid eyes upon
19:41We need to move quickly
19:45We can head down now
19:55What it is to be alive, eh?
20:10I'm sorry
20:14Police ain't close
20:16I told Mrs. Gardiner I would have got you
20:18I intend to keep my way
20:32Very slippery
20:34Quite carefully
20:35I'll call the hand and find the safest way down
20:37Taylor, don't worry
20:38I know the route
20:54Mr. Gardiner
20:56Mr. Gardiner
21:00Mr. Gardiner
21:06Miss Bennett
21:11Miss Bigley
21:12Help me
21:14Can you move?
21:16No, I don't think so
21:19No, please go and get help
21:21I do not know where Ride or Hayward are
21:24Here, let me
21:27Be careful, be careful
21:29I'm trying, I'm trying
21:32I've got it
21:33No, no
21:34Put your arm around me
21:45Don't walk on the scones
21:47Miss Bennett
21:50Miss Bennett
21:52Miss Bingley
21:54She fell
21:55She fell
21:55She's hurt
21:57I've burned
21:58I can help
21:59I've got her
21:59Miss Bennett
22:01Do you know how I would feel
22:03If anything were to happen to you?
22:12Hold on, Miss Bigley
22:26They're taking too long
22:27Do you think something's happened?
22:28I'm sure they're fine
22:29I should go and look for them
22:34There they are
22:35I'm so sorry
22:36I lost you all on the way down
22:38Miss Bingley is badly hurt
22:39We must get her inside
22:40We've had to carry her down the mountain
22:43Oh, Mary
22:44My friend
22:45Mary
22:46My friend
22:47Miss Bennett
22:48Get her inside
22:49Miss Bennett
22:49Yes
22:50Let, let him
22:51Let him
22:54Hurry
22:55You're okay
22:55Miss Bennett
22:57Here we go
23:21Ah, ah, ah
23:23Thank you
23:24Oh.
23:27Oh.
23:30Oh.
23:32Oh.
23:33Oh.
23:35Oh.
23:38Oh.
24:01What did the doctor say? Any change?
24:06Not as yet.
24:08You should get some rest, Tom.
24:26Oh.
24:28Yes.
24:29Oh.
24:39Oh.
24:47My mamma.
24:53Why am I sorry?
24:54She has said what do you feel?
25:00Oh, Mary, Mary, are you awake, Tom, Tom, is she awake, I think so, let me fetch the doctor.
25:26She's doing well. She's going to make a full recovery.
26:03And so it was that Mr. Haywood left the lakes. A trip that had promised so much, had delivered very
26:13little.
26:15He didn't return to London. I did not know when I would see him again.
26:54Amen.
