01:30Well done, Neil.
01:32I'm almost persuaded you know one end of a horse from the other.
01:34Well, I know that both ends are dangerous.
01:37Pa won't let me use the motor.
01:38But then motors don't bite, do they?
01:40Nor do they kick.
01:43Why have we stopped?
01:45Well, there you are, old man.
01:47A family seat.
01:50Nice!
01:52Looks good, doesn't it?
01:54So we always show Badge where they are from here.
01:56Any closer and you can see the cracks.
02:00I won't be the only guest, will I?
02:03You're the only guest to brave the journey by the railway.
02:06Do you know, I like trains.
02:07That is because you're in a country bump.
02:10Your room.
02:11Now listen, you have a wash and brush up.
02:12Change for dinner and I'll be up to finding.
02:14We never let guests come down on their own.
02:16Ever since old Admiral Worthy sneaked up for a snifter in the middle of a rubber
02:19and was found an hour later wandering in a distracted manner around the attic.
02:24Do you know, it was good of you to ask me.
02:27It's jolly good of you to come.
02:28Between you, me and the gatepost, you're my early pal here.
02:30This is really Sylvia's part of you, for her engagement.
02:33So apart from you, it's family and family friends.
02:37Well, I won't know anyone here.
02:38Oh, you'll know me and the horrible brat.
02:40Is Alan coming?
02:41Yes, the young bounder would never miss a bun fight.
02:44Now, you'll be relieved to hear that no man will come and unpack for you.
02:47So the guilty secrets of that will remain unrevealed to the servants' quarters.
02:51Well, I am relieved.
02:53Do you know, I hate being unpacked.
02:55Yes, I don't know the man who doesn't.
02:56However, please don't feel that we admitted a man-servant out of consideration for your sensitive feelings.
03:01The fact is, there aren't enough to go round.
03:03The house may be large, but the exchequer is small.
03:07There have been Carslakes at Badgeworthy for 300 years.
03:11And what we lack in tangible currency, we make up for in history.
03:14Is the place haunted?
03:16No.
03:16My ancestors were all far too lazy to haunt.
03:19There are rumours of footsteps.
03:20And the usual, not to say obligatory.
03:22Sighs, groans, rattles and headless numbs.
03:25But I've never seen or heard anything.
03:28Now, as soon as I've changed, I'll be back for you.
03:30Mm-hmm.
03:31So move yourself, Hermitage.
03:32Not down on the farm, no?
03:35Good evening, madam.
03:36Ah, Hobbs.
03:38Do you think one should light the fire?
03:40Oh, I hardly think so, madam.
03:41It is a beautiful evening.
03:42Yes, but people from town always feel the cold.
03:45Don't you worry, madam.
03:46It's all ready for a light to be set to it just as soon as dinner's over.
03:49Oh, dear Mrs Hobbs.
03:51Sure this is being a great burden on you all.
03:53God gracious, no, madam.
03:54It's like a party for us.
03:57Old Badger, the entertaining society again.
03:59And Miss Sylvia as well.
04:01Her engagement.
04:03It seems like only yesterday she was no more than a bit of a band.
04:08That'll do, Mary.
04:08You can go now.
04:09All is well in the kitchens?
04:11God willing, madam.
04:13And a better meal they're unlikely to sample in town.
04:16For all, it may be warmer up there.
04:18Everyone has arrived.
04:19Yes, madam.
04:20Master Neil has returned with his university friend,
04:22whom he had collected at the halt.
04:24Oh, yes.
04:25What was his name?
04:26Armitage, madam.
04:27Mr Matthew Armitage.
04:28How is one ever going to remember all the names?
04:31You don't have to, madam.
04:33Dear Mr and Mrs Hobbs,
04:35what would any of us do without you?
04:38With your help,
04:39I'm sure this evening is going to be a great, great success.
04:44You are cold, madam.
04:46No, not really.
05:03No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
05:42No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
05:54no.
05:54You ready?

13:14or dream.
13:18i think i'd like to walk a little on my own now mr armitage.

13:55goodbye.
14:09yes.
14:09yes.
14:36Dearest mother,
14:39your letter has reached me here.
14:42Things are a bit quiet at the moment, so I'm able to write you a few lines.
14:48This was all farmland once.
14:51It's just mud now.
14:54We're making a devil of a mess of France.
14:57Father would have had a fit, for nothing much grows here.
15:13But I suppose when this is all over there will be grass again.
15:17And birds.
15:20Oh, I do miss the birds.
15:26How I wish I could be with you now you are so alone.
15:30But I know my place is here.
16:01What time is that?
16:02What time is it?
16:04I have two hours to do.
16:06You can get some sea boat chances.
16:10Bloody hell.
16:12Some poor blight is down the French lands toward Verdun.
16:15Captain Arjun!
16:17Sir!
16:17Give me your hand, will you?
16:19Yes, sir.
16:24Rest for a weary man, aren't you?
16:28New recruits from the Egyptian front made a damn bit of a job getting here.
16:32And this poor fellow could do with a bit of a reviver, I think.
16:38Talk to him, Matthew.
16:40He seems to think he knows you.
16:44Captain Mountjoy.
16:45Sir.
16:46I need your help, please.
16:49There are 14-year recruits to be found homes for.
16:52Sir.
16:55Back up the flaming French to fight their own war.
16:59Here you are, old chap.
17:00Hey, you'll be safe here.
17:02Having a quiet time of it.
17:04A bit hectic down toward Verdun.
17:06And those poor blighters who are at Wipers say that we are having an absolute tea party.
17:10Matthew.
17:12Matthew Armitage.
17:14Neil!
17:16Neil!
17:17It's all right, old chap.
17:19It's all right.
17:20I'm sorry.
17:21I wanted to be strong and brave.
17:23But we all did.
17:26It's all right.
17:27Hey, come on.
17:28Sit down.
17:29That's all.
17:33There you go.
17:35One of those has got my name.
17:37Now, we don't know that.
17:39I do.
17:41Will you break it to Sylvia?
17:43No.
17:43Now, look.
17:44Stop talking like this old chap.
17:46It's bad luck for all of us.
17:47Do you remember Sylvia?
17:49Yes, of course.
17:53I don't know what you said to her, but you know, she never did marry Crawley.
18:00Poor old child.
18:02She was pretty cut up about it.
18:04But she sent him packing.
18:07Sleep clean, I'm sure.
18:13What do you mean?
18:15What I said to her.
18:16I always thought you must have said something to her.
18:18Why?
18:19Because you were with us on that last evening.
18:24Last evening for us all, really.
18:28God, I am so scared, man.
18:30I am so scared.
18:33I'm ashamed of it.
18:37Come on, get some sleep, old chap.
18:39Come on.
18:40You'll be safe here.
18:43Will you stay here?
18:45Yes.
18:45Yes.
18:48Right here.
18:50Right here.
18:52Do you remember that day at Badgeworthy?
18:56We went riding.
18:58Later, we went for a walk with Sylvia.
19:03It'll never be like that again.
19:07Never, never.
19:10I know.
19:14Do you believe in presentments?
19:16No.
19:17Visions, yeah.
19:18Knowing the future.
19:19Do you?
19:20It's ...
19:22It's...
19:23...
19:37Dearest mother, I'm coming home, but I don't know for how long, I'm with such a sad heart.
19:50Neil Karslake was killed in no man's land just before dawn yesterday.
19:58I was beside him, I didn't even get a scratch.
20:07Mother, oh, mother.
20:13It's so good.
20:14No.
20:17Better not speak.
20:22Poor Neil.
20:26Poor all of us.
20:30And you, Matthew.
20:33You look so tired.
20:37See?
20:40There are still flowers.
20:49Sylvia, I want to help.
20:53You loved him too, didn't you?
20:57Yes.
20:59He was my best.
21:01He was my very dearest friend.
21:05Then I'm thankful you were there.
21:12Poor flowers.
21:14Now they're dying too.
21:20I must go back to my mother.
21:25Poor papa.
21:29Thank you, Matthew.
21:30You left it.
21:36You left it.
22:05What's your name?
22:07Barton, the sea company.
22:08No, Barton, this is no place for a nap.
22:11Come on, it's my legs.
22:25Can you make it back to our lines?
22:28There's much left tomorrow.
22:29Come on, then.
22:30Take it.
22:31Come on.
22:39Take it, baby.
22:50It's not far, it's not far.
22:58All right, steady.
23:00Steady.
23:01Steady, just keep coming.
23:09Bugger, stop, sir.
23:12So do I, Barton.
23:14So do I.
23:16I mean, there's no way to behave, is it?
23:21I mean, it's not even bloody polite.
23:25Those are our guns, Barton.
23:27They're our guns.
23:30Come on.
23:30Yeah.
23:32We should be pulling up the left side of the way.
23:36Oh, fuck.
23:45Oh, Sylvia.
23:49Sylvia.
24:00There are flowers in heaven.
24:05There certainly are at Badgeworthy.
24:08What are you here?
24:12I came as soon as I heard.
24:14Your mother wrote and told me you were back and sent me your address.
24:17The letter arrived this morning, so you see, I've wasted no time.
24:25I wanted to die.
24:26Don't.
24:28I'd taken everything away.
24:30From whom?
24:32From you, my darling girl.
24:34From me?
24:37When I told you about Neil, I thought my heart would break to see you in such anguish.
24:42But I could only have heard it from you.
24:47And then...
24:51What happened to Charles Crawley?
24:54He was killed on the Somme two years ago.
24:58Oh.
24:59I'm sorry.
25:02I'm so very sorry.
25:03Yes.
25:06Poor Charles.
25:10But why do you think I broke off our engagement?
25:13Because of my vision.
25:17No, dear, dear, Matthew.
25:19Because of you.
25:22I would hardly have been decent to have married him when my heart was beating for another.
25:28For another?
25:31From the first time I saw you at Badgeworthy, I knew I loved you.
25:35Come on, Mr. Armitage.
25:37Time for nature to heal that wound.
25:38Oh, no.
25:39Not now, my goodness.
25:39Yes, now.
25:41The young lady may wait.
25:42So I'll take a moment.
26:10Yeah, now, Mr. Armitage.
26:12Two good eyes.
26:14Nothing to show for it all but a wee bit of a scar.
26:17I think it gives him a certain dash, don't you, Miss?
26:20You were lucky.
26:23You're not all lucky, you know.
26:37Do I look awful?
26:39No.
26:42I was so afraid for you.
26:49If this war should ever end, and we go back to living again, would you?
26:58I should be down on one knee for this, and here I am, lying flat on my back.
27:02I love you so much.
27:04Do you think it's possible to love someone too much?
27:06Because if it were, it would be my only crime.
27:10And I love you, too.
27:12More than Crawley.
27:14I don't think you can compare.
27:16I simply love you.
27:18Not as much as I love you.
27:21Not as much.
27:30I mean, my dear, what do you do all day?
27:36I shouldn't like it at all.
27:43You're happy, Sylvia, aren't you?
27:48You're my little sister, and I shouldn't like you to be otherwise.
27:52Yes, Alan, I am happy.
27:55Mama wonders very much if she's to be a grandmother.
27:58Oh, only Mama?
27:59Oh, Papa as well.
28:00He's longing for a grandson.
28:03Well, why not?
28:05We're talking about you, my love, not about me.
28:08We've only been married nearly four years now.
28:11There should be...
28:12There should be...
28:15There should be...
28:17The rifts of baby whiteness, blowing in the wind.
28:21Very funny.
28:23Talent will out.
28:25The Sitwells, think we promise.
28:26Which would be wonderful to say for the fact that I think they may be married houses.
28:29Who are the Sitwells?
28:30Do we know them?
28:31Clowns' houses.
28:34The wooden pedasors.
28:37Rescue me, dearest.
28:39My brother is now talking in riddles.
28:41Armitage, you're keeping my sister under lock and key.
28:44Too much country can be very bad for a person.
28:46She must come to London and meet some interesting people.
28:49She might even meet the Sitwells.
28:51Not now, Alan.
28:52Come and have some tea.
28:53It's nearly time for you to go.
28:54My wife can come and go as she pleases.
28:56There's only I who am confined to this farm.
29:05You have a manager, Matthew, who does all the work.
29:08And we all know perfectly well why you never leave this frozen wilderness.
29:11You're afraid some good-looking young Adonis might enchant Sylvia down off her perch.
29:16Infidelity is all the rage this season.
29:19Not in Suffolk, sir.
29:25Pardon me.
29:27Oh, Alan.
29:38Alan is...
29:42He's just Alan, Matthew.
29:45He's always been at ease all his life.
29:47One learns not to let him upset one.
29:50Oh, does one?
29:51I really think you're taking this too seriously.
29:54Maybe there's some truth in what he says.
30:05Since Neil was killed, we've become very close.
30:09Particularly as Pa is a little disappointed in him.
30:12Oh.
30:12Oh.
30:13Your poor father.
30:14Is there any small wonder?
30:15Matthew.
30:17Well, the man's an artistic Sylvia.
30:19He's a poet.
30:20Yes.
30:23He's also my brother and a dear, loving person.
30:27And I don't wish to discuss him with you.
30:28Well, why don't you go and live with him?
30:30We could have a very jolly time together.
30:32All those Chelsea types.
30:34Or where?
30:36Bloomsbury.
30:36Yes, that's the place to be now, isn't it?
30:39Darling, are you trying to divorce me?
30:41I won't let you go.
30:44I love you, Sylvia.
30:47I know.
30:52I know it's not much fun for you here.
30:55I am with you.
30:57That's all that matters.
30:59If only I could believe that.
31:01Yes, Matthew.
31:02If only you could.
31:06I didn't always want to be a farmer.
31:10Do you remember when we first met?
31:13I was at university with Neil.
31:17I wanted to be a historian.
31:20It's probably meant I'd have ended up teaching
31:22a lot of bored little schoolboys history
31:24in a minor public school somewhere.
31:27I'd have enjoyed that.
31:28Yes, darling.
31:30And then the war came.
31:33Changed everything.
31:34You were to be married to Charles Crawley.
31:38Maybe we neither of us got what we wanted.
31:40Matthew, you must stop this.
31:42And then the war came.
31:45Changed everything.
31:49Fun.
31:52Took away my sense of fun.
31:58This house needs children.
32:05It's all right.
32:07It's all right, Matthew.
32:11I'm here, Matthew.
32:12It's over.
32:12The war, it's over.
32:15Not yet, I think.
32:18Not yet.
32:26Perhaps we should give a party.
32:33Celebrate our wedding anniversary.
32:36My mom and pa will be staying here, then.
32:40Your mother could come.
32:44Perhaps we have to make our lives,
32:46not expect it to happen.
32:51Charles and Graham could come.
32:59My dear, never be married to a doctor.
33:01It's impossible to make arrangements.
33:03At this moment, he's probably delivering a lusty infant over at Stapensall.
33:06Sylvia, the man I wanted you to meet.
33:08He's rather good looking, but don't be dismayed.
33:11He has brains as well.
33:13You must be Charlotte's brother.
33:14Didn't I say that truly living in the country
33:16makes one lose all the social graces?
33:18Charlotte, a few names would be useful.
33:20What?
33:21Oh, this is Sylvia Armitage,
33:24the prettiest farmer's wife in the whole of supper.
33:26Oh, don't be so nakedly in your praise, Charlotte.
33:28And this is my brother Derek, Derek Wainwright.
33:31Don't ask me what he does, darling.
33:33He was going to be a perfectly respectable doctor
33:36like all the rest of our family.
33:37Even I married one, but no, Derek has to be different.
33:41Matthew!
33:42Ooh!
33:42Ooh! Darling!
33:49Charlotte divides her time
33:50between telling me how jealous Matthew is
33:52and trying to right the balance
33:53by making me jealous, Mr.
33:56What do you do, Mr. Wainwright?
33:57I'm a sort of doctor.
34:00I always get embarrassed when people ask me that,
34:02particularly at parties.
34:04I don't know why.
34:05Well, then, let us pretend I never asked it.
34:07No, no, I don't mind telling you.
34:09I'm studying in Vienna.
34:11Oh, sorry.
34:13I'm studying to be a psychiatrist.
34:16Oh, that's rather the vogue at the moment, isn't it?
34:18Well, thank you.
34:19In fact, I've never really understood what it means.
34:22A doctor who diagnoses and treats disorders of the mind.
34:27Are you successful?
34:29I personally, or psychiatry as a practice?
34:34I suppose I meant, can such disorders be treated?
34:36At least you acknowledge that they do exist.
34:39Oh, yes, Mr. Wainwright.
34:41But not before, then.
34:42Certainly they're a legacy of the war.
34:45It seems so poignant that the men who have returned
34:47should be bedevilled by fearful memories.
34:49But not all of us.
34:51No.
34:53And you're quite right.
34:54It's an unsuitable conversation for a party.
34:57Make me laugh, Mr. Wainwright.
34:58Charlotte's always boasting about what a witch you are.
35:00Is she?
35:01Yes.
35:01Yes, she is.
35:02Yes, she is.
35:25Matthew.
35:27Matthew.
35:28Matthew, I was speaking to you.
35:29I'm sorry, Mother.
35:31My dear, are you all right?
35:34Yes.
35:36Yes, of course.
35:54Matthew, what is it?
35:56It's nothing.
35:57I'm all right.
35:58Go back to our guest.
35:59Dear Mr.
36:00Go back to our guest, Sylvia.
36:04Very well.
36:07Only don't you think a good hostess should circulate a little more?
36:10Not spend her entire evening talking to the one handsome man in the room?
36:13Particularly when that man does not happen to be her husband.
36:16I shall ignore that remark, I shall ignore that remark, Matthew, and just remind you that we have guests.
36:26It's here for your pleasure, remember?
36:28This entire party is for you to relieve the boredom of living with me!
36:37And now, Mr. Carslick, how's that young son of yours doing?
36:41I hear from Sylvia.
36:42He's had his birthday.
36:45I'm proud of you.
36:47Well, it's gone mad.
36:48And my husband doesn't hold with artistic pursuits.
36:51No, I do not.
36:51Knitting is for women.
36:53Oh, oh, oh, oh.
36:55Your husband went right through the war, I mean, a brave man.
37:01Yes.
37:02He got medals for his bravery.
37:05Medals.
37:07You must meet our other guests, Mr. Wainwright.
37:09Of course.
37:11If ever you need my help, I'll be staying with Charlotte for a short while, after that I'll
37:16be in London.
37:19That won't be necessary.
37:26Good night.
37:28And, put this in your handbag.
37:30I meant what he said.
37:31I will, I will.
37:33It's just very highly strange.
37:35Let me be the judge of that.
37:36We like having you both as neighbours.
37:39And thank you for a delightful evening.
37:41Well, no, Armitage, I'm going to take you up on that office.
37:43Oh, my dear chap.
37:44My dear chap.
37:44Any time.
37:45Well.
37:45In fact, whenever you're staying with Charlotte and Graham, you'd be most welcome.
37:48We shall expect to see you, won't we, Sylvia?
37:51Good night.
37:52I hit, my dear.
37:54Uh, hit.
37:56Good night.
37:57Good night.
37:58Good night.
37:59Good night.
38:01Sylvia.
38:04About earlier.
38:07I'm sorry.
38:11We still have guests, Matthew.
38:15Whatever may have gone wrong between us, at least let our parents be spared.
38:23Thank you, Elvis.
38:25Right?
38:31With you good mood.
38:48My teacher in alright said it is something you can't use to do a-
38:55I won, and I refuse to believe you let me.
38:59I've enjoyed that.
39:35You know, don't you?
39:37No.
39:39That I'm falling in love with you.
39:43You mustn't.
39:46You mustn't. I love my husband.
39:48But you're unhappy.
39:50That doesn't stop me loving him, Derek.
40:32You mustn't. I love my husband.
40:45I love my husband. I own you.
40:47Now, who is that letter from?
40:50I will not tell you.
40:52I'm going up to my room.
40:54My letters are my private life.
40:56And your mind is your private mind!
40:58And you close me out of both!
41:01Now, who is that letter from?
41:03No!
41:09It was from him, wasn't it?
41:12Derek Wainwright.
41:15He hasn't been around much lately, has he?
41:18What's the matter?
41:18Had a lover's tiff, have you?
41:21Or perhaps you decided your meetings ought to become more clandestine.
41:25All that riding and carrying on under my very nose was too much for even a fool like me.
41:30My God, Sylvia.
41:33You're destroying me.
41:35You're tearing me apart.
41:38Damn you!
41:39Damn you!
41:41Why did you marry me?
41:44Why didn't you leave me in peace?
41:48My God.
41:51You trapped me.
41:53I should have known.
41:55You cast Crawley off without...
41:58Without...
42:00Oh, my God.
42:03My vision was right.
42:05But I saved you from it.
42:07Crawley would have strangled you with his bare hands,
42:09and no one would have suspected that you had driven him to it.
42:12Oh, you flirt!
42:14You flirt!
42:15Well, don't think that I won't let you go.
42:18You are the only woman I ever loved.
42:21Till death us do part.
42:24Do you remember?
42:26Do you remember?
42:52Do you remember?
42:55Do you remember?
43:00Do you remember?
43:02Love him!
43:08Do you remember?
43:10I was the BILLY.
43:11All the inmates?
43:11I was the only mom.
43:12I suppose this is a very traditional way of doing it but I'm too much of a coward
43:19to face you. I'll go to Badgeworthy for a day or two. after that I'll go to the one
43:30person in the world who really loves me and needs me.
44:08I'll go to Badgeworthy for a while.
44:54So, you were going to him, to Wainwright, or you cheat, you slut, you flirt, you flirt.
45:18Oh.
45:33Sylvia?
45:36Sylvia?
45:36Sylvia?
45:37Are you all right?
45:39Will you have a concern?
45:41Yes, Pa.
45:41I don't know.
45:41Do you hear voices?
45:43No, it's all right, Pa.
45:46It's all right, Matthew.
45:47It's all right.
45:48Yes, Hoff did tell us.
45:49We were a little concerned.
45:50I'm just going to get this.
45:53Good.
45:54Okay.
46:28All this time, all these years, and I never knew.
46:36Oh.
46:39The man with the scar.
46:43Oh, my darling.
46:48I love you so much.
46:52I've damaged you so much.
46:55Of course, I'll never stand in the way of your happiness.
46:59I rejoice in your happiness.
47:02I thank Wainwright.
47:04He has the power to give you what I never could.
47:06Listen to me, Matthew.
47:08I love you.
47:10I've loved you since that first day in the arbor
47:12when you told me about your strange vision.
47:15I don't know whether I believed it or not,
47:17but I do know that it had nothing to do with Charles and I.
47:22I just could not marry one man when I loved another.
47:24I couldn't.
47:28You love me.
47:31I've lost everything.
47:34You love me and I've driven you into the arms of the man who loves and needs.
47:38I love you.
47:38Alan.
47:40Not Derek Wainwright.
47:43Alan.
47:44That's who my letter was from.
47:45My brother, who's alone and unhappy and confused and had no one to turn to but me.
47:52I've never stopped loving you.
47:55Even when things were so bad between us, I didn't believe it was you.
47:59Not the real you.
48:01It was what the war had done to you.
48:05I love you so much.
48:20Do you see?
48:22Crawley's scar was on the left.
48:24My scar is on the right.
48:27The mirror reversed the image.
48:31If I'd seen that all those years ago, I'd have never spoken to you about it.
48:35I'd have known the man was not Charles Crawley.
48:39Everything reversed.
48:42An illusion.
48:44Make relief.
48:48Shhh.
48:51Listen.
48:56The sound of the guns inside my head.
49:03They've gone.
49:05Good.
49:06No.
49:10Do you know, without you, without your love, I have been...
49:15Well...
49:17I'm here with you now.
49:21do you think the farm is a good place to bring up children oh yes yes a very good place
49:29place we've won together in a world you fought for
