00:01I'm here to assist Miss Isabella Fowle.
00:03Cassandra, we weren't expecting you.
00:05Isabella must live with her sisters, promise me.
00:08There is no greater comfort in this world than a sister.
00:12You and I will always be sisters, even when I'm Mrs. Fowle.
00:17There are things I must say to you before I leave, in case I do not return.
00:20If you cannot marry me, you must feel free to marry another.
00:23I promise you, Tom, that I will never marry any other man but you.
00:29There are sure to be letters here that will cast up all manner of treasure.
00:32Everything one needs to know about Jane Austen is to be found within the pages of her novels.
00:38We have bad tidings to impart, Cassie.
01:26Sadie, Matt.
01:27I was in the kitchen with Mrs. Isabel.
01:29And what of Miss Austen?
01:31In a room of mine.
01:32What's she doing in there?
01:34Cassandra!
01:35There's work to be done.
01:40Mary, my dear.
01:42So there you are.
01:44So here I am.
01:46We weren't expecting you so soon.
01:48On account of tea with Mrs. Bunbury.
01:51This has been a falling out to do with you, Cassandra.
01:54Me?
01:54Mrs. Bunbury suggested that you arriving here without informing me first
01:58was a slur on my reputation.
02:00I mounted a most robust offence, but she was adamant.
02:03It's not the dumb thing, Cassandra.
02:06We're supposed to be sisters.
02:09I sincerely hope that relations with Mrs. Bunbury
02:13return to cordiality very soon.
02:17Dinah says you've made a start on clearing my dear sister's room.
02:19You know I wish to help?
02:20Did you find any letters from Jane?
02:22Jane?
02:23Not a single one.
02:26How odd.
02:28Considering how often Jane wrote,
02:30no matter.
02:31I find them myself.
02:33Perhaps you will be lucky where I was not.
02:38Mum, Mrs. Austen, do you wish me to make up Mrs. Fell's room for you?
02:42Yes, yes.
02:42Do it at once.
02:43So I may settle myself and get on with clearing.
02:46A task I do not relish, given how close Eliza and I were.
02:52Now, I said.
02:56Dad!
02:57Oh!
03:01Let me pick it up, ma'am.
03:02You'll hurt yourself.
03:03There is little point in making more work than is absolutely necessary, Isabella.
03:07It was an accident.
03:09Ah, well, I'll leave you to it.
03:10I have work to do upstairs.
03:13Dinah, Dinah.
03:14As soon as you're ready.
03:17There's too much to do.
03:19I must ask Mr. Dundas for more time.
03:21I'm not ready.
03:22I won't be ready.
03:24Isabella.
03:25Isabella, I have been in your position and I know how daunting this task must appear.
03:32But I also know how uncertainty for your future can make it feel all the more onerous.
03:40That is why this question must be settled without delay.
03:43To that purpose, I wonder if we might make a visit today to see your sisters.
03:50We're still too busy here, Cassandra.
03:51Surely it can wait.
03:52Isabella, I am becoming increasingly concerned about what is to become of you.
03:57We cannot delay this decision any longer.
04:01We should do it.
04:03Of course.
04:04But not today.
04:09Tomorrow, perhaps.
04:11Besides, I have errands to run this morning.
04:15Very well.
04:16Well, in that case, perhaps I could start to clear the dining room.
04:21I could clear your mother's writing desk.
04:24Save your Aunt Mary, the bother.
04:29I have loved this china since I was a child.
04:34Now it is all to go to my brother.
04:39All will be well, Isabella.
04:43I am sure of it.
04:46I am sure of it.
04:49Let's go.
05:02I am sure of it.
05:02I am sure of it.
05:04I am very sorry for her.
05:04It is all to go to my wife.
05:04All to go to my daughter's office and her daughter.
05:07I am so sorry for the wife.
05:07I am so sorry for her.
05:08I am so sorry I was waiting for her.
05:23What does that say?
05:25It says Eliza.
05:42Eliza.
06:08Eliza.
06:08My dearest Eliza.
06:09Your happy news has lightened our spirits here in Steventon.
06:14Mother and father cannot settle on whether you are to expect a boy or a girl.
06:19I shall let you know as soon as they decide.
06:24I wish I had more cheerful news of Cassie.
06:27In all this time, her grief has not abated.
06:33It is not in my sister's nature to reveal the depth of her suffering.
06:37For fear of burdening us with her sorrow.
06:41Let's go to the boys, walk on.
06:42But I can see how much her heart still aches for Tom.
06:58Our brother Edward has invited her to stay at Godmisham Park, his estate in Kent.
07:06I will miss her dreadfully, though I am hopeful this change in surroundings might lift her from her melancholy.
07:15It may amuse you to learn that Edward's invitation did not extend to me.
07:21I fear I may be a little too eccentric for Kent society.
07:27It is regretful, as I could certainly cultivate a taste for their acres of rolling countryside, extensive library and well
07:35-stocked wine cellar.
07:42Perhaps Edward's wife, Elizabeth, fears that I would become rather too comfortable and outstay my welcome.
07:49While she is always unfailingly polite to us lonely Austens, I admit to some surprise she is willing to play
07:57host to one of us at all.
08:07Welcome to Godmisham, my dear sister.
08:10Edward.
08:11How well you look.
08:14Considering, um, I do hope your journey was a pleasant one.
08:17If, if, if anything can be pleasant at such a... a time.
08:24Thank you, my dear brother.
08:26Come.
08:31Now, I know you'll want to gather yourselves, but the children are quite wild with excitement.
08:35If we don't go straight to see them, I fear they will burst.
08:39They are the perfect tonic to stave off sad.
08:43Cannot wait to see them.
08:44Stand still.
08:44No fidgeting.
08:45Say hello, children.
08:46Look who's here.
08:47Look who's here.
08:48Who is it?
08:49Cassie.
08:50Look how you've all grown.
08:53Look who is it.
08:56Hello.
08:57Hello.
08:57Hello.
08:58Peekaboo.
08:59Peekaboo.
09:01Peekaboo.
09:02I told you, Cass.
09:04Fit to burst.
09:08Hello.
09:09Someone of a more cynical disposition might wonder if Elizabeth has something to gain by having Aunt Cassie at Godmersham.
09:17This is not a thought that should ever cross my mind, Eliza.
09:21And certainly not one I would write down.
09:24Mum.
09:39What photo are we?
09:41Well, it would appear so.
09:45I may pay Mary Jane, Isabella's sister, a visit on my travels.
09:49Are you expected?
09:51Mrs. Mirajin Dexter is not one for a surprise visit.
09:54I'm sure she will be more than happy to see me when she knows the purpose of my visit.
09:59Time is of the essence.
10:02We must make sure Isabella is taken care of.
10:10Must be now.
10:29Who is it?
10:31Mrs. Dexter?
10:33Mary Jane, it's me.
10:34Cassandra Austin.
10:36I've come to call on you.
10:42Miss Hinn, him.
10:49She can never be too careful.
10:53Come into the parlour.
11:03What interesting objects.
11:06Hmm.
11:06What do you see here are the joys of the Empire.
11:11Halcyon days.
11:15Halcyon.
11:18Now, sit down.
11:26Isabella has been looking after you, has she?
11:28Oh, yes.
11:30Impeccably.
11:34She's got the heart of an ox, Isabella.
11:37Braver than you think.
11:41Although she wouldn't survive for one single day on her own, so it's a good thing she's
11:45come to live with me.
11:46So it's settled then?
11:49Of course it's settled.
11:50Isn't that why you're here?
11:51To make sure?
11:53Yes.
11:54It's just that Isabella doesn't seem to know this.
11:57What you have to know about my sister is this.
11:59She thinks she knows her own mind.
12:02But she doesn't.
12:08Tiffin.
12:10Aye.
12:23Miss Fowl.
12:25Mr Liddardale.
12:26I must offer you my apologies.
12:29I have been tardy in calling to inquire how you are faring since.
12:33I am perfectly well.
12:36In truth, I have been busy preparing the vicarage for the new vicar.
12:40I am sure that must be a most difficult task.
12:45Have you secured new lodgings?
12:49Not yet.
12:52But it is all in hand.
12:54I am delighted to hear that.
12:57There is nothing more unsettling than insecurity.
13:01Indeed.
13:05I wish you well.
13:07Truly.
13:09That is most kind.
13:11Now, if you'll forgive me, I have an errand to run.
13:22Dearest Eliza, I am happy to report that Cassie indulges my frequent demands for news from Godmersham and writes often.
13:31Though I hear suspiciously little about the delights and amusements of the Kent countryside.
13:36And a great deal more about spillikins with the tiny inhabitants of the nursery.
13:49Oh, Elizabeth, there you are.
13:52I wondered if I might take a short turn around the garden while the baby's asleep.
13:55Oh, my dear, no.
13:58It's too warm outside.
13:59You're in the best place up here.
14:01Besides, I cannot play that game for my life.
14:06Oh, look how they adore you.
14:09I cannot tell you how much it suits me to have you here.
14:13Things have turned out so well, have they not?
14:18I mean...
14:20I did not mean...
14:21I know what you mean, my dear.
14:23I'm most grateful to be here.
14:25Good.
14:27Now, I think I might have a little rest before my family arrive for dinner.
14:35Oh, look. I did it.
14:37It's your turn now, Cassie.
14:47Edward?
14:48Where are you going?
14:50We have guests for dinner.
14:51Just at this table to cast my eyes over the new filly.
14:53I won't be long.
14:54Well, I'm afraid the filly will have to wait.
14:56My mother will be here before we know it and she would not be happy if a horse has taken
15:00precedence.
15:01No.
15:02No, that would not do.
15:04Have you told Cassie what time she's expected downstairs?
15:07Oh, my dearest.
15:08I don't think it would be correct for Cassie to join us.
15:11But it's a family dinner and Cassie is family after all.
15:14She is still in mourning, Edward.
15:17It would not be appropriate for her to attend a happy party.
15:21Cook will send something up on a train.
15:28Eliza, I must prevail upon you for assistance in a matter of great urgency.
15:34Cassie is trapped in the nursery at Godfersham.
15:37My good and dutiful sister does not complain, but it is clear to me that the situation is most serious.
15:47please do not think the indelicate if i suggest the timing is to our advantage
15:52i beg you eliza thank you write to cassie and request her presence at your confinement
15:58elizabeth will not deny a mother in need and as for edward he will do as he is bidden

19:12I have just seen
19:13Miss Isabella with a pupil
19:14She is quite the teacher
19:17I had no idea
19:19There's a lot to Miss Isabella that people don't know
19:21I don't want to
19:24She must have made her father proud
19:26Looking after him as she did
19:29Well if he was ma'am
19:30He never told her
19:31Though he wasn't quiet about much else
19:33He was to fill the house with his presents
19:35Did Reverend Phil? God rest him
19:38I had not seen him for some time
19:40But I do recall he was the most exuberant of men
19:43Well if that's what you like to call it
19:46There's many a day you'd have heard him shouting up in the village
19:49And he used to bellow at Miss Isabella
19:54Bellow?
19:55What do you mean Dinah?
19:57Not a thing ma'am
19:59It's not for me to say anything
20:00I must go and fetch the rest of the dinner service
20:05Dinah
20:05Is Mrs. Austin still resting?
20:08She is that ma'am
20:10I wish to visit Miss Isabella's other sister
20:13Where might I find Miss Beth's school?
20:17Behind the plasterer's arms
20:26Miss
20:27Miss
20:27Miss
20:27Miss
20:30Miss
20:51Excuse me, could you tell me where I might find Miss Fowle?
20:55Miss Winnerborns.
21:20Cassandra, there's illness here. You must leave at once.
21:22Miss Austin, you cannot be in here.
21:24What ails her?
21:26Diphtheria.
21:27It has spread through the village.
21:29But as for the rest, poverty, misfortune, nothing I can cure.
21:35Now I beg you, leave. It is not safe here.
21:38Come, Cassandra, I'll walk you to the end of the village.
21:50Beth, I must talk to you about Isabella's future.
21:53Isabella's future, that great conversation that never seems to end.
21:58Well, it has been discussed already.
22:00Endlessly.
22:01Though I try very hard to stay out of the Fowle family politics, as I have no appetite for meddling.
22:06Your sister is about to lose her home.
22:08Isabella is a grown woman.
22:11Surely she's more than capable of securing her own future, whatever that may be.
22:16I'm sorry, but I must get back.
22:18Miss Liddardale needs me.
22:20Come visit again when the school reopens.
22:22I'd like to show you what I do there.
22:24Beth.
22:25Beth.
22:26Beth.
22:29Beth.
22:34Oh, where have you been?
22:37We've been so worried.
22:39It's weather.
22:40Isabella!
22:41Remove this dog from my presence of one.
22:44It appears your Aunt Mary has risen from her rest.
22:47Yes.
22:48She found my mother's room a little on the chilly side.
22:58Still no letters, Mary?
23:00Er, no.
23:01Strangely.
23:03This is my sister's writing desk.
23:07Well, throw these away.
23:08Eliza was always prone to a great deal of sentiment.
23:12How foolish to go out in this weather, Cassandra.
23:14She'd know better at your age.
23:18That dog is feral.
23:21He'll be the death of me.
23:22He must be banned from the house at once.
23:26Tea.
23:27Dinah.
23:28In the drawing room.
23:29Come on, Peter.
23:30Come on.
23:48Is that the only timing we have?
23:51We have packed the rest on, Mary, at your instruction.
23:54Oh, well, I suppose I must endure it.
23:57Oh, my leg is bothering me again.
24:03That tea will be going cold before any of us have a chance to taste it.
24:07Isabella, do you have any more cushions?
24:09My leg should be more raised.
24:12Er, more raised?
24:15Yes.
24:17And a blanket, perhaps.
24:27Yes.
24:28And more locks on fire.
24:35Oh, so where have you been, anyway?
24:37To visit Miss Beth.
24:39There is sickness at the top of the village.
24:42She's up there helping Mr. Liddardale.
24:44Ah, Beth and Mr. Liddardale.
24:47So she's a nurse as well as a teacher.
24:50They did seem very familiar with one another.
24:52Oh.
24:52That is a surprise, is it not, Isabella?
24:56You must forgive me, Aunt Mary.
24:59I have much to be getting on with.
25:01Dinah, I'm Miss Austen in a hot bath.
25:03We don't want her getting sick.
25:11Beth Fowl has been nothing but a trial for this family,
25:16fraternising with certain elements of society.
25:19Her father did not approve.
25:21She was tending to Mrs. Winterbourne.
25:25You should see the conditions that poor woman lives in.
25:27Well, let us not dwell on Miss Fortune.
25:32Go, go, go, take your bath.
25:35I'll rest some more and then I can set about taking charge.
25:39Miss family needs a firmer hand.
25:51Miss family needs a firmer hand,
26:04Miss family needs a firm and a wife has access to somewhere.
26:05Look into her.
26:10Miss family needs a firmer hand.
26:16Miss family needs a firmer hand.
26:26so you're in here now i thought i heard a noise i thought you were resting your leg
26:32oh the fire in the drawing room is a misery have you found something
26:40no no i just wanted to see if i could still hear the sea
26:47stories for children cassandra you could never hear the sea
26:53the sea sounds so calm today i cannot wait to stand beside it in sidmouth i'll miss you when

27:06great holiday schemes you'll hardly recognize us when we return isabella will have grown so much

28:43mary
28:44mary she has just lost her father
28:46i am aware
28:47and it is sad
28:49but he was elderly and that is the natural order of things
28:53it should be easier to bear
28:55but there is nothing written to tell each one of us how we must endure grief
29:04isabella
29:05perhaps a few chapters from your aunt jane's novel
29:08may make a welcome distraction
29:11have you been reading aloud
29:12from jane's novels
29:14i thought your father had expressly forbidden that practice
29:17as you have reminded me aunt mary
29:19my father is no longer here
29:22perhaps i could recite some of your uncle james's poetry
29:27that is kind
29:29but i find myself pleasantly surprised by how much i am enjoying persuasion
29:33anne elliott is a most interesting character
29:38a pleasant sort of person
29:41sensible
29:43with not much drama about her
29:46and i am most keen to hear the ending of her story before i am evicted from this house

29:53well we must read on then
29:56and find out

30:25in the same circle
30:29they had no conversation together
30:31no intercourse
30:33but what the commonest civility required
30:35once so much
30:37to each other
30:38and now
30:40nothing
30:42now they were as strangers
30:44nay
30:45worse
30:46than strangers

38:04you don't have to my pet
38:06we have every chance of discovering treasures amongst these rocks
38:09good morning sir splendid day for fossil hunting is it not indeed it is sir
38:15now my granddaughter has declared it the perfect day to unearth hidden treasures from the past
38:21well she has come to the right place ladies i'm not a lady far too young my apologies
38:30now you are a serious fossil hunter are you not i am well i've already found some excellent specimens that
38:37you might be interested in let me furnish you with the tools of the trade
38:40thank you we are blessed to have such an expert with us ah no expert more of an enthusiastic amateur
38:55mystery of ancient life
38:57hidden in these very rocks
38:59do you think i'll find a sea monster mr hobday
39:03perhaps not a monster but a sea creature certainly some sea creatures fossils are found at the top of
39:10mountains isn't that so see many years ago the earth was almost completely covered by water
39:15and then over time those waters receded to reveal the land beneath
39:21and then over time those waters
39:27do you think i'll find a sea creature now
39:30you may well do
39:54what am i looking at it's the shape of a worm mr hobday says it must be thousands of years
39:59old
39:59many thousand even that is evidence of a creature that lived on earth even before man
40:06what are you drawing my dear my daughter is an artist of considerable talent
40:10oh look she's captured your likeness brilliantly may i see it is but a sketch
40:19now young lady let us leave mr hobday in peace
40:27mr hobday is so clever on jane
40:29is he now he knows everything does he know
40:33aunt cassie drew a sketch of him
40:36did she now
40:38she did and it was quite the likeness
40:40not just of him i drew all three of them while i was bored waiting for them to finish
40:46and what was your opinion of mr hobday husband
40:50well given we hardly know him he struck me as unusually gifted in all that is agreeable
40:58and now cassie pray tell me do you share your father's opinion
41:05i must say i do
41:08so much so that i believe he would be an ideal suitor for jane for me yes you he's intelligent
41:16he
41:17he reads he knows a great deal about the history of mankind
41:22you must think of your future jane it matters not a jot which of you as long as it's one
41:27of you
41:37i have no intention of taking tea with mrs hobday or anyone for that matter far too busy i have
41:43a
41:43chapter i must finish
41:47well what if he's there what if he was there mr hobday
41:54you might find him to your liking i won't find him to my liking
42:19one moment
42:23how is your headache um you retired rather abruptly and i thought i'd look in on you
42:31was it something i said no no not at all i can't even remember what we were talking about
42:39how is eliza's room cold this house is like the grave now
42:46well good night good night sleep well my dear
43:01oh mrs austin i do sympathize i'm here for the sea air but this wretched body of mine has not
43:07let me outdoors all week
43:09how awful well i was struck down by biliousness the minute we arrived it'll be her evacuations next
43:19perhaps the floor will open up and swallow us it would be a blessed relief and part of mr hobday
43:25we lost my
43:27husband four years ago i'm sorry to hear that
43:32what did he ail from a tumor a tumor we saw the best of men but there was nothing to
43:40be done
43:43i see you are studying our books do novels interest you both very much so you have some of our
43:49favorites
43:49here my sister and i never go anywhere without sir charles granderson by our side
43:54these are my son's books and he reads to me every night perhaps that shall be our next book your
44:00son
44:00enjoys the works of the madame bernie and hedgeworth cassie seemed to think he was of the more scientific
44:06persuasion he's a scientist and an artist a philosopher and a lover of the novel i do believe he could
44:14take
44:14over the world if you were not so insistent on looking after his poor infirm mother would you like
44:21some cake well he did say he was perfect i'm not sure my constitution would take
44:26that curate was handsome enough and single from what i hear but his sermon was a touch terrifying mama
44:40mrs austin oh well this is a coincidence and i must say the happiest one
44:50how did you find the sermon today sir oh i thought the young lad did well enough considering his
44:58church was hardly full to brimming that must explain his histrionics in the pulpit perhaps
45:03he's hoping his reputation for hysteria will travel and drum up more gullible trade from out of town
45:08my dear jane is entitled to preach in his own manner my father is being polite that sermon was not
45:15to our
45:15taste it was vulgar and excessive what did you think mr hobday jane you cannot ask mr hobday of
45:21his opinion when you've been so sure of your own do forgive my sister mr hobday she's not usually
45:28quite so outspoken i can assure you she certainly is mr hobday well luckily i agree most comprehensively
45:35with miss austin it was not to my taste either how we all find these signals oh i like it
45:41very much
45:41we are of the exact same opinion once again it was seen we must pick up the pace girls our
45:46son frank
45:47isn't drowning tonight did you know our brother has fought napoleon single-handed mr hobday
45:53i rather approve of your mr hobday he's not my mr hobday in fact i thought you made rather the
46:01impression was i delightful no you were frightful as frightful as i was to mr blackhall nobody in the
46:09history of social intercourse has been as frightful to anyone as you were to mr blackhall so would you
46:13estimate this morning it's a half a blackhall i think i'd say more of a third
46:22and he's certainly not my mr hobday really then you have not noticed the way he looks at you
46:26nonsense he ignores me at every opportunity he pays everyone else far more attention papa anna you
46:33precisely and that is the evidence i am something of an expert in romantic matters and i'm quite sure
46:39i saw sparks flying between you i think one caught in my bonnet because of your charms i might have
46:46gone
46:46up in smoke cass how can you be so blind you have caught him in your powers i have no
46:54powers oh you do
46:55my darling and that you are unaware of them makes you more powerful still mr hobday has fallen for you
47:03cassie well then i'm sorry for him i've lost the only man i could ever marry i have no possible
47:11interest
47:11mr hobday where are you going to write
47:34jane what more have you said eliza
47:39our sidmouth adventure is proving far more entertaining than even i could have imagined
47:45a secret plan is afoot and i am to be my young niece anna's willing accomplice
47:50the beneficiary of our surprise is to be cassie no less

49:40i may have neglected to say how sorry
49:43i was to hear of your tragic loss
49:46that is most kind mr hobday

49:57and now

51:41Miss Austen?
51:43Miss Austen?
51:44God save us, don't tell us she's gone and died on Miss...
51:47Cassandra?
51:48Isabella?
51:48Cassandra, it's me.
51:50Isabella?
51:50Is she alright?
51:51She's burning up.
51:53Is she saying for Miss Austen to deal?
51:56Miss Isabella, Mr. Litterdale is too busy.
51:59We'll nurse her ourselves.
52:01Miss Isabella?
52:01I know what I am doing, Dinah.
52:08A beautiful day, is it not?
52:10Quite beautiful.
52:12Then I wonder if you might consider walking out for me.
52:20Eliza's letters.
52:22Am I to understand you already have knowledge of their whereabouts?
52:25Why ever would you think that?
52:27If I were the future Mrs. Harris Bigwither,
52:30I should make room for as many sisters as possible.
52:33Are you an admirer of the seaside, Mr. Bigwither?
52:37Do you truly believe that you could one day love this man?
52:39When manna falls from heaven, it would be foolish to squander it.
52:44I am to be in print.
52:46I am to be a published authorette.
52:48Have you?
52:51Okay.
