00:10Wait for a day, wait for a night, trust at your tone, so you'd never know, it's me.
00:44How are those helicopter lessons coming along, Stephen, but I might set up a few for myself.
00:51Mrs. Hart, I need two minutes of your time.
00:54One will be more than ample, Mr. Fairley.
00:57I've come with a warning.
01:00Theatrical?
01:01Mrs. Hart, I'm assuming you haven't seen the news about the crash in Hart's share prices, and about the leak.
01:08A source from inside your company has intimated to the press that you're fragile, losing control.
01:17They've provided them with your confidential medical records.
01:24And with Hart's stocks already 12% down on the LSE, things are looking bleak for the world's richest woman,
01:30Anna Hart, whose retail empire is reeling today from revelations about her health status.
01:36Stephen?
01:37Yes, Mrs. Hart?
01:38I'm going to walk.
01:39Oh, ma'am.
01:40Mrs. Hart, this isn't an easy thing to broach, but I believe...
01:45Thanks.
02:01Mrs. Hart, I hope by warning you, proves I can be trusted.
02:06Hello?
02:07Morning, Ted.
02:10Hello?
02:11Hello?
02:12Hello?
02:13Hello?
02:13Hello?
02:14Hello?
02:15Hello?
02:15Hello?
02:28Happy anniversary, Bernie.
02:30That sure rolls around.
02:32Perfumes, ground floor.
02:33Jewelry, floor three.
02:35Otherwise, dog houses, floor six.
02:38My regards to Cheryl.
02:40Please, I know this must be a shop.
02:42A friend of yours, Mrs. Hart?
02:44Hardly.
02:44Mrs. Hart?
02:45Please, let me help.
02:46I know how hard you've worked for all this.
02:48Now the papers are saying you're finished.
02:50Mrs. Hart?
03:01God, Grandy, we tried to get a message to you.
03:03What do we know?
03:03Are you all right?
03:04Those hospital records they have, are they...
03:06A complete fabrication.
03:07Where's it come from, this week?
03:09We've no idea, but it's rather detailed, I'm afraid.
03:11It appears one of the board.
03:13We need to control their narrative with press releases.
03:15A full page spread in every outlet you own.
03:17Oh, and a dog, but who knows I don't?
03:21Accountants.
03:22Henry's in Aspen, Mrs. Hart, at his daughter's wedding.
03:24Insures are down 14% now.
03:27Jerry!
03:41I took the stairs.
03:44One unwelcome appearance of a morning might be considered an intrusion to verges on trespass.
03:52Jerry, send in security.
03:53There's a wasp at the picnic.
03:56Mrs. Hart, I'm trying to earn your trust, and I hope perhaps this endless feud...
03:59Oh, I wouldn't call it a feud.
04:02What would you call it, then?
04:03Well, I don't get involved in semantics.
04:05Um, a war?
04:08It's vital to me you realize I am better than the rest of my family.
04:10Oh, well, that's an exceptionally unambitious claim.
04:14Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a mole to un-earth.
04:18But it's not just some anonymous board member.
04:20Mrs. Hart, I know who it is.
04:24It's your children.
04:28If you think for one moment that I'd trust you, Mr. Fairley...
04:33I know you have dedicated your entire life to the hatred of my family.
04:38Oh, now, you're quite wrong, Mr. Fairley.
04:41Hatred happens in secret, with neither purpose nor aspiration.
04:46No, what I've dedicated my life to...
04:50is revenge.
05:15I'm looking for Fairley Hall.
05:18Sorry to startle you.
05:20I'm, uh, repairing their chimneys.
05:26Shane O'Neill is the name.
05:29But the whole world calls me Mac.
05:37You can keep up.
05:38You can follow.
05:51My mom calls at the top of the world.
05:57Keep up!
06:13Well, I think that'll do with me.
06:16What do you reckon?
06:18Ever smelt a rose?
06:19I think that had a wasp in it.
06:21That had a wasp, innit?
06:49Quite badly.
06:51Father's hosting a weekend for some dignitary or other.
06:54You're supposed to impress them.
06:57Well, good luck. Being impressive.
07:11It's nice to have done your look.
07:14For the chimneys, Shane O'Neill that the whole world calls a Mac.
07:19This is Edwin. Master Edwin.
07:25Emma Hart!
07:33Sorry.
07:40Right, pay attention you lot.
07:43Mary, beds, baths, bedpans.
07:45Holly, in with the mistress as usual.
07:47Finally.
07:51Emma.
07:52Silverware, grates, glassware, all stairs and floors.
07:55And on time in future.
07:56And on time in future.
07:57I'm going to go.
08:03I'm going to go.
08:12I'm going to go.
08:18I'm going to go.
08:43Perhaps you'd like to treat yourself to some toast with that jam.
08:45Moderation.
08:47In all things.
08:49Except preserves.
08:53Yes.
08:53Did your father tell you how cleverly he ironed out his issue with that foreman?
08:57Yes.
08:57All ships shaped at the mill, largely.
08:59Thanks to you.
09:02Well, if Sir Vikram's impressed with you, it would all have been worthwhile.
09:06Edward, did I tell you?
09:07The Chandras and Vikram and his daughter Priya are coming to us straight from his trading meetings at Downing Street.
09:14You did say yes.
09:16Gosh.
09:17We must do our very best to get the Chandras on side.
09:20Let's see if we can't do our bit for Anglo-Indian relations.
09:25Well, Edward never lets anyone down.
10:04Emma.
10:06What are you doing?
10:07That kiss.
10:08The morning I left.
10:09In the stable.
10:10We mustn't.
10:11We never should have.
10:12I know.
10:12We've resisted for so long.
10:14Your lips.
10:15The taste of your mouth.
10:16It's all I can think about.
10:17We can.
10:19They catch us.
10:20I don't care.
10:21Do you?
10:22Yes.
10:22You don't have a job to lose.
10:24Emma.
10:24This isn't some whim.
10:26This is you and me.
10:28Running, laughing.
10:29Telling each other everything.
10:32But it's different now, isn't it?
10:34Since that kiss, it's changed.
10:36How can it not be better?
10:38I know you, Emma.
10:40I know you feel it too.
10:42I can't.
10:44I don't.
10:47I do.
10:48I do.
10:48Of course I do.
10:49But I mustn't.
10:50I mustn't.
11:01Something on your mind?
11:05Someone.
11:06Ma'am.
11:09I know those mill boys finish early on a Saturday, but you stay focused, do you?
11:16Did you get your extra dining money?
11:17I have.
11:22Keep climbing, Emma.
11:26You're talented.
11:27The way they're dressmaking.
11:29You've an eye.
11:30I've got two.
11:33And if you're smart, which I know you are, you can get out to Fairway.
11:37Don't be like me, you hear?
11:40Remember your plan with a capital P. Get out and get on.
11:47The rest of us, if we're bowing him fairly, we'll die here.
11:52But you won't get trapped.
11:55Remember, without money, you're vulnerable.
11:58So stay focused.
11:59And if a chance comes, you grab it.
12:04You hear me?
12:12McQueen!
12:13So don't get distracted.
12:15Don't take your eye off the board.
12:18Keep thinking ahead.
12:19Three moves, at least.
12:33We'll finish tomorrow, shall we?
12:36I love her.
12:38She's tired again.
12:40I was thinking, might we find money to at least talk to a doctor.
12:43We want to afford medicine.
12:46Are your mum alright?
12:49She's fine.
12:52Shhh.
12:53You sleep.
13:09Should've been the gift.
13:11Well, that's football for you son.
13:13Tell you now, I don't know how Bradford didn't have got a cat and herl's chance against Newcastle after that
13:17short blackburn.
13:19Yeah, look, dreadful results, dreadful.
13:22Mam's not burning up as much as I say.
13:24No?
13:25Well, she's a fighter, your mam, she fights.
13:28Like me, I can fight, can't I, Dad?
13:31Aye, look at him here, heavyweight, aren't you, son?
13:33Go on, get him in the belly.
13:35Come on, big man.
13:36See where you got, son.
13:37Come on, come on, come on!
13:39I hope your dad's getting old, man.
13:41Small but powerful.
13:42Look at that.
13:44Hey!
13:47He's had a slice already!
13:48Have a good day, Dad.
13:50It's all right.
13:52Yo.
13:53Small but greedy, more like.
14:13Just talk so nice.
14:15If they catch you, I can look after myself.
14:44Holy!
14:48Well, look at that. My husband finally come to see me.
14:53I had time to kill.
14:56Flatterer.
15:00I like your shirt.
15:02It's ancient.
15:03Well, a bit like me then.
15:06Perhaps that's why I like it.
15:10How do I seem to you, Adam?
15:12I hate not to live up to your expectations.
15:15Every man has the right to expect his madwife in the attic to behave appropriately.
15:32I should not go.
15:37But you wanted to come.
15:45I'm always here, Squire Fair.
15:48I watch you from the window, wondering if you'll come.
15:52When you're riding your horses, holding on tight.
15:55No.
16:04Where is Polly?
16:05Running an errand for Master Gerald.
16:09I feed for her.
16:11Never ends well when worlds collide.
16:19Mrs Fairley's waiting.
16:22Polly's on an errand.
16:24She does realise she's the lady's maid.
16:27She's got responsibilities.
16:30I'll take it.
16:51You're not Polly.
16:52I'm Emma, Mrs Fairley.
16:54Emma Hart.
16:55Well, Emma Hart.
16:57My husband is leaving, but don't worry.
17:00He always comes back again.
17:02We're busy downstairs.
17:03There's a party this weekend.
17:05I like parties.
17:07Yes.
17:07But my madwife never dares leave her room.
17:10How many years, Adele, since you set foot downstairs?
17:15It's not a big event.
17:17It's only family and a few locals.
17:19Are you trying to remove me from this family?
17:21Oh, you removed yourself from this family a long time ago.
17:24Olivia will be there.
17:25A wife's sister isn't a substitute for a wife, Adam.
17:29I only mean that she knows the business, and I think it would be safer.
17:32I can be safe.
17:34I can be charming.
17:36Don't you think, Adam?
17:39Fine.
17:41Is today the day, Adele?
17:44Can you find the courage?
17:53Come down, sirs.
17:57What you need to understand is we work damn hard in this Chandra deal.
18:01We!
18:01There's a lot of clever people there, Adele.
18:03Every one of whom is sober and fully dressed.
18:16Why don't you sit down, Mrs. Fairley.
18:18Sit down.
18:20And just breathe.
18:21Slow breathe.
18:49I was just...
18:52Watering.
18:57The plants, obviously.
19:05Have you seen Adele?
19:09How is she?
19:11Much the same.
19:13Lost.
19:15Lost.
19:23Do you ever get frightened?
19:26Yes, of course.
19:27You're a woman.
19:30Men get frightened, too.
19:32Oh.
19:33Men are only frightened of boredom and dying.
19:37Neither of those worry me.
19:39What is it, then, Mrs. Fairley?
19:42What scares you?
19:45I'm frightened of disappearing.
19:47Of being forgotten.
19:49Most people just assume you're nobody and then dismiss you.
19:54Do you know that?
19:56Yes, I do.
20:00Every morning, I get dressed, and I do my hair, and I have every intention of going down to
20:08breakfast, or to some fabulous party, like when it was a girl.
20:14And some days, I try so hard to leave the room, but it all feels too much.
20:22So, I have to find other ways to get Adam's attention.
20:30Meanwhile, my sister swans around downstairs, doing everything I should do.
20:37She seems to find the world easy.
20:41But you're the lady of the house, Mrs. Fairley.
20:43You've such lovely things.
20:45Oh.
20:45Your clothes.
20:46Well, I have marvellous clothes.
20:48And you've got your husband.
20:49And your sons.
20:51My babies.
20:53Well, your sister's got none of those.
20:54So I expect she might be frightened of you.
21:01Oh, is it?
21:15Are you a bush?
21:17Well-sorted.
21:19Lonely business, being a master of disguise.
21:26How's your plan, Emma?
21:27Still coming on?
21:28Of course.
21:29I'm doing my mending.
21:31If I can make my wages up before shillings a week, I might be able to get to leave.
21:34Emma?
21:36Emma Hart!
21:37You're a visitor.
21:48Dad says you're to come.
21:50Hi, Emma.
22:00Emma.
22:01No.
22:02No.
22:02Emma.
22:03Don't wait for me.
22:04I'll just throw you down.
22:05Don't be daft.
22:06We have to both go.
22:07Honest.
22:07I've said goodbye.
22:08You go.
22:09Please.
22:10Please, go.
22:12I'm sorry.
22:13I love you.
22:15Go.
22:16Go.
22:18Go.
22:40I'm coming, mom.
22:42I'm coming.
22:57I've got him, Emma.
22:58I've got him.
22:59I've got him.
22:59You go.
23:12Look at me.
23:15She's not left, love.
23:17Oh.
23:19Mom.
23:20It's me.
23:20It's Emma.
23:24I've got him.
23:26I've got him.
23:29I'm scared.
23:32Get out and get on, Emma.
23:36You hear me?
23:37Promise me?
23:38Promise me.
23:40Emma, baby.
23:42See?
23:43I'm here.
23:49Now where's your dad?
23:51I'm here.
23:56I'm here.
23:58It's time.
24:02Dad!
24:04Dad, what are you doing?
24:06I don't know.
24:07I've got you now.
24:08Dad!
24:09Oh, no.
24:10What are you doing?
24:12Dad!
24:15Dad!
24:17Mom!
24:18Mommy!
24:19Where are you taking her?
24:21The top of the world.
24:31I'm here.
24:31There are now beautiful.
24:37No!
24:37No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
24:39Dad!
24:42No, no, yeah, no, no.
24:45Dad!
24:46We're going to the top of the world.
24:48It's where we've got to be.
24:50Dad!
24:51Dad!
24:56Dad!
25:09I'm so sorry.
25:11I'm so sorry.
25:16I'm so sorry.
25:18I'm so sorry I've been driving.
25:25You must love.
25:33I'm so sorry.
25:37I'm so sorry.
25:38I'm so sorry.
25:48I'm so sorry.
25:54Oh, you're here are you? About time. No time for moping in my heart. I missed half a day
26:02yesterday and we'll be partying tomorrow.
26:09It's a lovely morning out there. So no need for these, I don't think.
26:21You made any progress with your book? Would you like me to read to you again?
26:30I wouldn't like. No, not at all. Right. I heard there was to be a party.
26:39Oh, Sir Vikram. He's terribly important, so I suspect desperately boring.
26:48Well, thank you for stepping in.
26:52Well, no, it's not a question of stepping in. You know, just while I'm here, for your sake,
27:00I may as well every now and again run my eyes over Adam's business papers.
27:03Yes. What else do you run your eye over?
27:09At all.
27:14Olivia, why would any man ever be beguiled by beige when he has every colour of the rainbow upstairs?
27:25You'll need a rest, I expect. Then perhaps tomorrow I could read...
27:29Will you read to me? How wonderful. You know, you would have made a charming mother, Olivia.
27:49Emma.
27:56I was...
27:59I heard about your mother.
28:07I've been thinking, sir. Might I be considered to look after Mrs...
28:16I believe, Squire Fairley, that it's important to take your chances in life.
28:25And I reckon I understand the mistress.
28:28So I was wondering if I might look after her from now on, as her personal maid.
28:34I think if you asked the mistress, she'd like that too.
28:39I was thinking, unfortunately, tomorrow a week.
28:44Hmm.
29:10When you know loss, Emma, it can suddenly feel like it's all you know.
29:16But you know a whole lot.
29:19So that's what you hold on to, do you hear?
29:21What?
29:23Because you're hungry.
29:25Isn't that right?
29:27And when you've no one hunger, well, sure, you stay hungry.
29:32Emma Hart!
29:35What have you been saying to the master?
29:40Because from now on, he says it's your job to take the mistress's tray.
29:46Well, I don't know why you're standing still when the mistress is upstairs waiting.
29:55Emma?
30:01I finally feel like I'm being taken care of.
30:05So much for friends.
30:07I'm sorry I have a family to look after.
30:10I know what Mrs. Fairley likes.
30:12But it's about what she needs.
30:13And when she needed you, you were with the master.
30:16Oh, well, isn't she lucky?
30:18Having you to show her just how life's done.
30:21Blame me if you like, Paul.
30:22Either if you do, I'm sure.
30:23But I know you're really disappointed in yourself.
30:30Stay there.
30:32Come back here, you little brat.
30:34You'll never be a lady Emma Hart.
30:36Your dad's a layabout.
30:37And your mam.
30:38Your mam spent her whole life trying to be better than us two.
30:41Then prove she weren't after all by dying of being poor.
30:48Oh!
30:54Oi!
30:56Enough!
30:57Enough!
30:58Enough!
31:00Absolute disgrace!
31:01A pair of you!
31:02Come here.
31:03What have you got to say?
31:04Hey!
31:05She tied me!
31:06She tied me!
31:07Hey!
31:08Fix your things!
31:10Come on!
31:11No!
31:14Gerald!
31:15Gerald!
31:16I was running errands for you, wasn't I?
31:19Tell him!
31:21I don't know what you're talking about.
31:23Good decision, Murgershroyd.
31:24We have dogs to do our attacking.
31:31We have dogs to do our attacking.
31:35Mothers, come and go.
31:37That is how life works, Emma Hart.
31:40The jobs are the same if you're not careful.
31:47We always used to look out for each other.
31:50Now we're fighting like animals.
31:52This place is wicked.
31:55All the mountains of food going to waste.
31:57And your mother talking about dreams.
31:59Do you know what my dad dreams of?
32:02Survival!
32:03That my mam might have...
32:08She should have lived.
32:11I'm sorry.
32:13I'm so sorry about your mother.
32:15When I grow up, I won't ever be poor.
32:19I won't ever want for anything like my mam did every last second of her life.
32:22None of my family will.
32:23I promise you that.
32:24I promise you.
32:25Emma, you've got me.
32:25My world's not yours!
32:27My father breaks his back hauling bricks while your father sits ordering lunch
32:31while his workers half-starved.
32:33The family will want you to marry some rich girls so that when you're a fancy lawyer
32:36she'll get right in.
32:38Emma.
32:40Listen to me.
32:42You're talking about other people.
32:44Not the two of us.
32:46You and I are just the same.
32:50Only one of us has covered in egg.
32:59What's all this, Frank?
33:01Eh?
33:05I bumped me head.
33:10My mam always used to kiss it better.
33:15Also...
33:16Where do I keep bloody bumping it?
33:21Because you're a hooligan.
33:23And foul mouths too.
33:26Come on.
33:27Come on.
33:28I'll cry until the bloody washing up's done.
33:39This party today.
33:41I should go.
33:42Shouldn't I?
33:43I must, but...
33:46Will I survive?
33:48When I'm drinking, I might do anything.
33:51Which is, of course, the curse and the bliss of it.
33:53There's your answer.
33:54No drinking.
33:55Let's get your dress for now, Mrs Fairley.
33:56Then see what comes next.
33:58Is it beautiful enough, do you think?
34:01If I just take these roses off?
34:02No!
34:04You'll ruin it.
34:05It'll be drab, won't it?
34:06It won't, Mrs Fairley.
34:07It'll be elegant.
34:08I can change the neckline, these sleeves, maybe even a slit in the skirt.
34:13Trust me.
34:19I remember having your skin.
34:24Just keep breathing, Mrs Fairley.
34:27And when you're nervous, put your hand on your heart and check it's still there.
34:46You'll go downstairs and look kindly at your sister.
34:49We'll tell you stories and let the whole room admire you.
34:52You can do it, Mrs Fairley.
34:54Of course you can.
35:25I'm sorry.
35:26May I?
35:32You've been very quiet.
35:33How do you know this?
35:34About the party.
35:36Oh no, I'm fine.
35:41It's stupid.
35:43Tell me.
35:47I know I'm only here to fill in for my sister.
35:50I'm only playing the part of...
35:53But some days it feels real.
35:56It does.
35:56It feels real to me too, sometimes.
36:02I barely used to eat in the morning, you know.
36:06There was no one to share things with.
36:08I've had no conversation, no partner.
36:12And now it's...
36:16You.
36:17You.
36:33I'm sorry.
36:35I should have...
36:51You see, the trick is to not let any of the ringleaders on the mill floor think they have the
36:55upper hand.
36:56Although in the case of the girl that had the accent, it's the only hand she's got.
37:01What about you, Edwin?
37:03Any thoughts on keeping workers in check?
37:06Truthfully, sir, I'm not sure it's up to us to actually...
37:09I'm afraid we have an idealist on our hands, Sir Vikram.
37:13But...
37:14He's a bright lad.
37:17Well, Edwin, if you are a free thinker, you sound the same as Priya here.
37:21Isn't that right, Priya?
37:22It depends on how free he is and what he thinks about.
37:31It goes without saying, doesn't it, Adam, that anyone who invests in our mill will benefit from the unprecedented profit
37:36margins that we mentioned earlier.
37:40You must be a busy man, Squirefield.
37:43My sister-in-law never off duty, and I hear her wife upstairs.
37:48Yes.
37:50My wife sends her apologies.
37:53She's...unwell.
37:56A party?
37:58For little old me?
38:17She's in the chair of the room for a few minutes.
38:21What the...?
38:25Oh, Olivia! You look charming!
38:27Adele, I wonder what to see you up and about.
