Transcript
00:24The
00:25loss of my father was a leap into the unknown.
00:29Longborn was my childhood home, and although I had my struggles here, it was all I had
00:35ever known.
00:37From now on, would I be relying on the hospitality of my sisters, destined to spend my days as
00:45my mother's companion?
00:48What other choice did I have?
00:54I do not expect any of you to understand my pain.
00:59The bond Mr. Bennett and I shared was a rare thing.
01:04I do not know that I shall ever eat again.
01:10Who is that?
01:12I do not know, Mama.
01:14What sort of person would impinge upon our hour of mourning so distastefully?
01:21Charlotte!
01:24I am afraid you find us in a state of some disarray.
01:29Understandably.
01:30We have been wanting to see you all since we heard the terrible news, but knew you would
01:35need time as a family to-
01:37To gather your things.
01:38Yourselves.
01:39Together.
01:43I want to make it quite clear that there is no rush for you to leave Longborn.
01:56Thank you, Mr. Collins.
01:58You are quite welcome to stay here with us for a full two weeks.
02:01Two weeks?
02:03Mrs. Bennett, there really is no hurry for you and Mary to leave.
02:06But I have arranged you some help with the packing.
02:09So you are not obliged to undertake such a difficult task during your hour of need?
02:15Hmm.
02:28Mama, you must come and stay with Mr. Bingley and Knight Netherfield.
02:32We have a number of cooks and more servants than we know what to do with.
02:37Oh, Jane.
02:39I would be delighted.
02:41It would bring me great comfort to be in a sizable property with a large number of
02:46staff at my disposal.
02:49And Mary, you of course must come too.
02:54But if you're worried about company, Caroline Bingley stays with us often.
03:00Well, yes, but I have not yet thought through my future prospects.
03:06Hmm.
03:07Speaking of your prospects, Mary, I have received a letter from my brother and his wife in London.
03:13Their governess has been called back to Norfolk and they have asked me to send you to stay
03:18with them until a suitable replacement is found.
03:21There is going to be a governess.
03:23Oh, Mary.
03:24I would very much like to help, but you will need me, Mama.
03:30I have already accepted their offer.
03:32They're sending a carriage.
03:35But, Mama, I...
03:36Do not worry about me, Mary.
03:38I shall have Jane by my side.
03:40Ha!
03:44Ha!
03:48Ha!
03:52Ha!
03:52Ha!
03:54Ha!
03:55Ha!
03:56If my options in life really were marriage or misery, it looked very much as though I
04:02was destined for misery.
04:10Mrs Bennet is indisposed oh of course thank you Hill
04:29um what if the children don't like me why should they not like you you're a perfectly likable soul
04:39I have nothing ready to teach them Mary nobody knows more facts about anything than you

04:54think
04:55it'll do you good do not be frightened Miss Mary oh no I'm not I'm not no I'm just um
05:24so
05:42I don't know.
06:00I don't know.
06:28I don't know.
06:30I don't know.
06:31I don't know.
06:33I don't know.
06:34Oh.
06:34Mary!
06:35Welcome.
06:36Mary, you must be hungry after your journey.
06:38It would be like some toasted cheese.
06:40But first we'll show you your room.
06:41Come in!
06:42Come in!
06:44It's right at the top of the house, so you won't be disturbed by the children.
07:07How's your mother?
07:10She's had a most trying time of late.
07:12Well, you all have.
07:15Mother as well.
07:16Thank you for inquiring.
07:19And how are you, Mary?
07:22It must have been a terrible shock.
07:27It was.
07:29Well, thank you for stepping in at such short notice.
07:33We don't stand on ceremony here, especially with the children, so if you don't mind that,
07:38you'll do well with us.
07:40And the rest of your belongings will be brought up any moment.
07:43Do you have all you need?
07:45I do.
08:00Which mountain range is found at the end of your armies?
08:05Oh.
08:06The Andes.
08:21That's good.
08:22Come on.
08:22Not so good.
08:24Mary!
08:24Won't you join us for breakfast?
08:26Oh, no, no.
08:27No, sir.
08:27Thank you, sir.
08:28I'm not at all hungry this morning.
08:30I shall see the children upstairs.
08:44Marianne, would you like to start?
08:47Miss Bennet, it's a pleasure to meet you.
08:50I'm Marianne Gardner, and I'm 11 years old.
08:54It's my pleasure to meet you too, Miss Marianne.
08:59George!
09:02Yes, thank you, George.
09:05And this is...
09:10This is Rebecca.
09:12Thank you, Miss Rebecca.
09:15And if an organised body is not in the situation and circumstances best adapted to its sustenance
09:25and propagation, then in conceiving an indefinite variety among the individuals of that species,
09:33we must be assured that, on the one hand, those which depart most from the best adapted constitution will be
09:42the most liable to perish.
09:48You've made him go to sleep.
09:55Let us move on to history, shall we?
09:58Now, in 1492, Christopher Columbus discovered America.
10:04Now, where is America?
10:05Ah, yes.
10:07America.
10:13Where has Rebecca gone?
10:15There were very clearly three of you in this room when I began looking at the globe, and now there
10:19are two of you.
10:20She vanished.
10:22She's a magician.
10:24Well, magic is nothing but illusion and trickery.
10:26Oh.
10:27Now, where could she be?
10:30Oh!
10:30Tom!
10:31You're here!
10:31Tom!
10:32Can we finish lessons now?
10:33Yes.
10:34Oh, forgive the intrusion.
10:36I came to tell you that dinner is served, and you must be Miss Bennet.
10:41I...
10:42I must be.
10:44Oh, yes.
10:45I am.
10:46Tom Hayward.
10:47Oh.
10:48Friend of the family.
10:55Aren't there normally three of you?
10:57There were three, certainly, but I was looking at America, and when I looked back, it was...
11:10Do you have mice, Miss Bennet?
11:13For if you do, might I suggest you...
11:15I wasn't sure.
11:16I thought perhaps mice like toy trunks.
11:20No.
11:20You see, in there, they cannot get to their cheese.
11:23Actually, it's a fallacy that mice like cheese.
11:28Of course.
11:29They're much more partial to root vegetables and grains.
11:33Yes.
11:33Indeed.
11:34I'm a rabbit.
11:39Mr...
11:40Hayward?
11:42Mr Hayward.
11:43I am keeping a rabbit in the toy trunk because...
11:49I...
11:51Because rabbits are not at all social creatures.
11:54Exactly.
11:55Yes, they are.
11:56Oh.
12:00Now, why exactly do you have a new governess?
12:04Is it that you keep eating them?
12:09Um...
12:12Tom helped Edward with the legal matter some years ago, and we've been friends ever since.
12:17Did you know that of our former lodgers?
12:19Oh.
12:20Yes.
12:21Oh.
12:22What is a revolutionary Republican?
12:29Well, uh, as discussed during the lesson, um, they're often associated with Jacobinism.
12:35But my point really was...
12:36Sounds like you had a very interesting first day, Miss Bennet.
12:39Well, uh...
12:41Have you read Catherine Macaulay, Miss Bennet?
12:44Yes, I have.
12:45Yes.
12:47Mary told us about smallpox, and I shall never sleep again.
12:51Well, I mean, you asked me to be truthful.
12:54What's a deadly rash?
12:56She said it can leave one blind or dead.
12:59That is not quite how I put it.
13:01Blind or dead, she said.
13:02Well, that is true.
13:03There's a mortality rate of about...
13:05Thirty percent.
13:09Exactly.
13:10George cried three times.
13:14There was something in my eye.
13:15We held hands until Mary had finished talking.
13:19Well, you're never too young to lull about life.
13:23I think our game is in order, don't you?
13:25I think that's a very good idea.
13:27Yes!
13:28Yes!
13:28I'm first!
13:29But what should we play?
13:31Graces!
13:32Ah!
13:33Let's show Mary how to play Graces!
13:36Yes!
13:37Marianne?
13:38Well called, Mary.
13:39Yay!
13:40Well done.
13:40Bravo!
13:41You're Rebecca!
13:43Woo!
13:44Oh!
13:45Oh!
13:46That counts!
13:47It does indeed.
13:48It does indeed.
13:49It does indeed.
13:50Oh!
13:52You'll need to get someone to look at that.
13:54Send it to Blythe, she'll fix it for you.
13:57Ready?
13:58Yay!
13:59It's brilliant.
14:00Yes!
14:00Yes!
14:01Well done!
14:02Flare play.
14:03You look like a wizard.
14:05Yes.
14:12Are you sure you won't join in, Mary?
14:14Oh, er, no.
14:15I'm not good at games.
14:17Oh, that doesn't matter at all.
14:20Yes.
14:20Yes.
14:21Well, you couldn't possibly be as ungainly as I am.
14:25Yeah, really, I'd only spoil it.
14:33George.
14:34Ready?
14:36Oh!
14:44Yes, Tom.
14:45To Mr. Gardner.
14:47Oh!
14:48Stop!
15:06Yes?
15:08Mary?
15:11Oh, do not look so grave, my dear.
15:13You're not in trouble.
15:15With the weather getting warmer,
15:17we're about to become more sociable.
15:18Oh!
15:19Oh, please, do not feel any obligation to involve me.
15:21I shall be quite content to stay upstairs with the children.
15:24Mary, we want you to join us.
15:28But I do not sparkle at dinners.
15:32In our house, no one is obliged to sparkle.
15:37Then...
15:38of course.
15:40But we need to get you properly dressed.
15:42Oh.
15:43I thought perhaps tomorrow we could go to the haberdashers
15:45and you could pick out some fabrics.
15:46I do not really care for dresses.
15:49Well, that's a shame, but very well.
15:54Perhaps think about it, Mary.
15:56There is a dress allowance as part of your governess' wages.
16:00I have thought about it.
16:02And I would very much like to accept your kind offer.
16:05That's excellent news.
16:09Well, good night, Mary.
16:11And thank you for today.
16:21This must be such a change for marriage.
16:24It most certainly is.
16:36What do you think of the deep greens?
16:39We have a soiree coming up.
16:41Now, I think deep green would be perfect.
16:45Mother has always said it's terribly difficult to get any colour to work with my complexion.
16:49Really?
16:50Well, perhaps your complexions change because I can see many colours here which would work well on you.
16:55But the most important thing being is that you choose fabrics that you truly like.
17:02But Mother says that Mother isn't here.
17:08Mr. Gardner?
17:09Oh.
17:10Miss Bennet?
17:11Tom!
17:12Mr. Hayward, have you brought your jacket to be mended?
17:16I have just this minute dropped it off.
17:17Well, now that you're here, you can make yourself useful.
17:20Miss Bennet needs to choose some dress fabric.
17:24I find myself quite overwhelmed by the choice.
17:26Well, I shall be honest and say that my experience of picking dress fabric is limited.
17:31To say the least.
17:33But I shall try.
17:36Have you seen the names of these colours?
17:39We've got Dust of Ruins, Corbeau, Flamme de Bonge, anyone?
17:47I think I shall take the Drake's Neck with a splash of Nanky.
17:51Anyone for Gaboge?
17:53Well, I mean, that's just yellow, that one.
17:56Yes.
17:57Yes.
18:00I think my advice would be to choose the colours that make one feel most like oneself.
18:05And I am sorry not to be of more use.
18:08I should return to my desk and a particularly unexciting land negotiation.
18:14Good day.
18:16Good day.
18:21Oh, poor Tom.
18:23He works so hard.
18:24Really?
18:25Underneath that light-hearted manor, carries the weight of the world on his shoulders.
18:32Now, have you decided?
18:36I have chosen.
18:38Very well, Mary.
18:42The first is this crimson.
18:45And then I thought perhaps a spring green trim.
18:49Lovely.
18:50But you will need two dresses.
18:52So perhaps...
18:55China blue?
18:58Hmm.
19:01Do you think a dress in the spring green alone would be garish?
19:05What do you think, Mary?
19:09Some people may think it is wild.
19:11But...
19:13I like it.
19:15Then I think you should please yourself and not worry what others may think.
19:19You've done a very good job.
19:21Hmm.
19:24Now...
19:50Oh!
19:51Oh!
19:52Gosh!
19:56The gardeners are out.
19:58They're buying shoes for the children.
20:01Would you like to play graces?
20:06Well, um, yes.
20:14Ready?
20:15Yes.
20:19Oh!
20:20Oh!
20:23I did it.
20:25You did!
20:26Natural!
20:27Beginner's luck.
20:29Right, um...
20:31Ready?
20:32Uh, um...
20:35One moment.
20:36Oh.
21:08Uh...
21:09Oh!
21:15Ready?
21:16Yes.
21:19Oh!
21:21Oh!
21:23Um...
21:24Uh...
21:25Yeah, um...
21:27That's probably enough, Graces, for today.
21:31Oh, yes, I brought a book for Mrs. Gardner.
21:36Oh, of course, yes.
21:38Ah, poetry.
21:40Do you like poetry, Miss Bennet?
21:42I prefer facts to whimsy.
21:47Whimsy?
21:48I've tried, uh, well, Cowper, uh, Byron.
21:52Even some Dryden.
21:54But, um...
21:55Well, it seems to me that it's all just...
21:58words.
22:00What were you expecting?
22:03Are you a scholar, sir?
22:05Uh, no.
22:07I'm a barrister.
22:08Junior.
22:09And though the law is my business, poetry is my passion.
22:14What do you like to read?
22:16Uh, works of non-fiction.
22:18Yeah, um, histories and, uh, and geology.
22:22And what do you like to read for pleasure?
22:26That is reading for pleasure.
22:29There is nothing you like about poetry.
22:35Well, just some poems are mercifully short.
22:41Well, now that you have thrown down the gauntlet,
22:45I will not rest until you have appreciated the merits of poetry.
22:51I believe that this is the book that will open the heart of Miss Mary Bennet.
23:00Oh.
23:03Ah, the garden is at home.
23:05Oh, is it, uh, yes.
23:07Yes.
23:07Uh, well, yes.
23:09Uh, I...
23:13Oh, Tom!
23:37And we'll need more scallops.
23:39Mrs. Shomley will claim she couldn't possibly before helping herself to seven.
23:44Must be very strange without your family here.
23:48Well, there was always at least one argument about stolen perfume.
23:57Mary, you look lovely.
24:01I'm not sure.
24:05I think we should let your hair fall naturally.
24:08No point trying to force it into curls if it doesn't want to go.
24:16Here.
24:31hmael ABB
24:32Well, obviously I'll pop in the bölge.
24:34The eye is over here.
24:39Hi, Daniel.
24:39Hi, Daniel.
24:41I'm into the liconation.
24:43Yes, my ciudad.
24:47Thank you, Daniel.
24:56Um, I mean, that's basically it, but they're awfully fun to hunt.
25:01Mm.
25:05Good evening.
25:07I do not believe we have met.
25:09I'm Miss Baxter.
25:11Delighted to meet you, Miss Baxter.
25:13I am Miss Bennet.
25:15I have not long moved to London from Hertfordshire.
25:18Oh.
25:19Fanshawe, Mr Fanshawe.
25:25A friend of my mother's died eating those nuts.
25:30One got stuck in his throat and that was it.
25:32He was quite dead in minutes.
25:39Oh, I hope I didn't cause any offence.
25:41That was marvellous.
25:43Oh, I shall keep that story in mind for when I want to be rid of someone.
25:46Forgive me, it wasn't deliberate.
25:50I hate the first 20 minutes of these evenings.
25:52Well, as do I.
25:54I never know who to talk to and I often find myself saying the wrong things.
26:02Your dress is striking.
26:03It looks very well on you.
26:05You really think so?
26:06I feel a little bold in it.
26:08Well, you're in London, Miss Bennet.
26:10If you're going to be bold, here is the place to do it.
26:15Perhaps London will be the start of something new for you.
26:18Perhaps it will.
26:20And if you want to be shown around town, I could call on you?
26:32London, it turned out, was a place of learning as much as teaching.
26:38A place of trying new things.
26:41And though I had never liked change, I seemed to be enjoying myself.
26:49Much about me felt different after just one week.
26:54Being here had lifted my spirits.
26:57I felt something long forgotten.
27:01Hope.
27:03Are you looking for someone?
27:07You must tell me all about it in a moment.
27:11Meg, there's a gentleman I'd like you to meet.
27:14We have something of an understanding.
27:17Please may I introduce Mr. Tom Hayward.
27:25We've already met.
27:27Miss Bennet?
27:27Oh, of course, you must have.
27:30Oh, I see you went for the Pomona trim.
27:34It's spring green.
27:35It's quite different to Pomona.
27:37Well, it suits you very well.
27:41Tom!
27:42Excuse us, ladies.
27:43You must come and meet my colleague, Mr. May.
27:47Mr. May.
27:50Mr. Hayward and I met three years ago this spring.
27:53We are hoping to be married next year.
27:56Not everything went exactly as I would have liked.
27:59Come on, Becca.
28:01Oh, please excuse us.
28:03Come, Mary. It will be fun.
28:05Of course a man such as Mr. Hayward would have secured a match.
28:10But I had made friends.
28:12And that was enough.
28:20I did not know what tomorrow would bring.
28:24But for now,
28:26at least I had someone to dance with.
28:31The wind was really good.
28:33I had someone to dance with.
28:34Bye.
28:34Bye.
28:41Bye.
28:43Bye.
28:45Bye.
28:50Bye.
28:51Bye.
28:52Bye.
28:53Bye.
28:54Bye.
28:54Bye.
28:55Bye.
28:55Bye.
28:56Bye.
28:57Bye.
28:58Bye.
28:58Bye.
28:58Bye.
