00:00Everyone is going to have to accept a wage reduction.
00:03We're taking us out on strike for a month.
00:04It won't last that long.
00:05If every worker in Britain comes out, we'll win in a week.
00:10Everyone out!
00:11Return to your machines!
00:12Ignore them!
00:26Help!
00:28Oh, it belongs to me!
01:07Let's go.
01:32Yeah, I see.
01:34Back and all, not alone.
01:37Come on.
02:05If you're willing to work for three quarters of last week's wage, if you don't want the
02:10right to her saying who rules you, walk in.
02:12I know your permission.
02:14But when we win, will you insist on your wage cut?
02:18Will you refuse your vote?
02:20Cross this line, you'll be a knobstick forever.
02:30No one will speak to you again.
02:32Hey, blacklegs.
02:34We must be talking to you.
02:39We're blacklegs.
02:45I appreciate your loyalty, John.
02:48Have bait arrested.
02:50We are in no time, sir.
02:52It suits me to let the machines lie idle for a time.
02:54The market's flat.
02:56The warehouse is full.
02:57My mother's at death's door.
03:00My mother is full.
03:14The market is full.
03:17The market is full.
03:31Help!
03:32Benji, Doctor, help!
03:34Oh.
03:37Why are you out of bed, Mrs. Gregg?
03:39What are you doing in here?
03:44Why are you out of bed, Mrs. Gregg?
03:57Why are you out of bed?
04:15Hey, eat up, Tommy.
04:17I know I'm not the best cook, but on the bright side it's only a small portion.
04:22You can't afford to keep us.
04:24We should go back to the workhouse.
04:26Lucy and your sister will filter us food from the apprentice house.
04:30Billy's dad will help.
04:31We need to go.
04:49I know what you're thinking.
04:52When you start earning again, you can have a say in how we divide our fodder.
04:56Until then, you're not leaving this table until you eat everything in front of you.
05:01You're welcome.
05:06Maybe you'll have a close.
05:24Maybe you'll have a close.
05:27Go!
05:28Maybe you'll have a close.
05:31I never leave the doubter.
05:33Ever thought you might like a child of your own, James?
05:36No.
05:39Well, neither of us knew our dads, and yet here we are,
05:43doing this with no personal experience to draw her upon.
05:46And look at them.
05:48They think it's Christmas,
05:50and I was expecting you to make me punish them.
05:52Relativity, George.
05:54Ah, the family they never had.
05:57I meant it's better the child in our care is fed,
05:59and we'll punish the child in the care of the turnout for you.
06:03Oh.
06:46It's me.
06:47I'll follow that's the price here.
06:52You in there.
06:53Come on out.
06:55Surrender yourself, or I'll shoot you dead as a common thief.
07:10If anything's missing, we could still arrest her.
07:14It doesn't appear to be.
07:16At least she got away and behind it.
07:19There you go, Tommy.
07:20Back where it belongs.
07:22It's a bit rusty, but a spot of oil will fix it.
07:25140 delegates?
07:27I'm there for one mil.
07:28The Mosley man was representing 12.
07:30The Ashton delegate spoke for 30,000 people.
07:34It's a parliament.
07:35A working-class parliament.
07:37How does that feel, Tommy?
07:39Can I keep it?
07:41It's yours.
07:42Half a million people are out.
07:44From Dundee to Merthyr.
07:47What about strike pay?
07:49Five bob for a married man.
07:51Three bob for a single man.
07:54A union man pays in a penny a week.
07:56He's entitled to strike pay.
07:58Anyone who hasn't paid.
07:59I'd paid.
08:00But I'd try to pay.
08:02You have to go back tomorrow, Tommy.
08:04Now you've got your number.
08:06If it's any consolation, there's that many men out of the strike fund won't stretch to more than a week.
08:11That's what distract doesn't.
08:31I know, I know, baby.
08:33I know, I don't have anything for you yet, but in a couple of arms, eh?
08:37I know.
08:41What does it say?
08:44Can't you guess?
08:48Go back to work, Price.
08:50Your baby's hungry.
08:51Go to hell, knobstick.
08:54Is it knobstick?
08:58Oi!
08:59Oi, clear up!
09:12I'm going out to trap something.
09:13Do you know how?
09:15Grandad's been teaching me.
09:16He used to be the best poacher in three counties.
09:18According to him.
09:21Hey, be careful.
09:25I was walking around to put me to sleep.
09:27I wasn't...
09:28I know.
09:29Give him here.
09:30I'll bring you over in a couple of hours.
09:32You have him here.
09:35Hey, I've got a spud you can have.
09:37I don't want to.
09:39Well, you're eating for three.
09:41Take it as this week's wages.
09:43What am I?
09:43A knobstick?
09:46It's not work.
09:47It's not solid, have you.
09:49Oh, yeah.
09:59Excuse me, sir.
10:01I have something here for a man who can't come today.
10:05It's a letter of condolence, he said, for one of Mrs. Gregg's nephews.
10:10He asked me to make sure it was delivered before Mrs. Gregg's funeral.
10:16Of course.
10:36My mother had just two sisters.
10:38They had at least a dozen children between them.
10:40My father was one of ten.
10:43There could be a hundred nephews.
10:45I don't recall a Vernon in the family, do you?
10:48No.
10:49Perhaps he was delivered to the wrong church.
10:51Deal with this window.
11:02It's a mistake.
11:11People are starving and we're spending money on pipe.
11:14People responsible for this are responsible for their own hunger.
11:23Poaches, probably.
11:24All Stanford's bought in extra gamekeepers.
11:26How's it come to this?
11:34Who's that gunshot?
11:36Why?
11:37Was it?
11:38Why?
11:39Where's Will?
11:41Where is he?
11:45Is that a gun?
11:46Has Will gone punching for you?
11:49Answer me!
11:50Has he gone punching?
11:51He went that way, are you sure?
11:53I'll kill you!
11:54If that's what I'll kill you!
11:55Stop!
11:56What direction did it come from?
11:58Think!
11:59What's happening?
12:03Is that Will?
12:12I think it's Joshua Bibi.
12:21Now will you go back on work?
12:40Please take a seat, ladies.
12:50We want to offer our condolences.
12:55Your mother was a good woman.
12:57She always tried to do the right thing.
13:00The friendly society was their idea.
13:02A farthing set aside out of every shilling
13:04earned to pay for sickness in funerals.
13:06And Joshua Bibi paid into it for 11 years.
13:0910 years, 41 weeks, 4 days.
13:12We're here on his widow's behalf.
13:14Because your husband's away again,
13:15passing more resolutions.
13:17She wants what she's owed,
13:18so she can give him a Christian burial.
13:20At the time of his demise,
13:21Joshua Bibi was not employed by us.
13:23He was on strike.
13:24Nor was he sick.
13:25He was engaged in a felony.
13:27It's his money.
13:28Craig and Sons were just looking after it.
13:30And gaining interest.
13:36You're right.
13:38Wendell will see that Mrs Bibi gets where she needs.
13:45Personal favour.
13:47Although I'm surprised your husband doesn't object to the undertaker working.
13:50Oh, he'll be given a licence by the strike committee.
13:55You can't be serious.
13:56Same as the grain mills.
13:57If people need berry and people need bread, so...
14:00And the strike committee have sanctioned the apprentices
14:01who come in to do essential maintenance.
14:04Daniel wants to make sure the machinery isn't damaged
14:06while it's lying idle.
14:16Stopping work is one thing.
14:18But when they decide what work gets done,
14:20who does it and when,
14:21that's...
14:22that's revolution.
14:24What are we, Wendell?
14:26French?
14:33I don't want you in today.
14:35It's not convenient.
14:36What's Daniel Bates?
14:37Is this maintenance work you need to do?
14:38I want you in tomorrow.
14:40Anybody who isn't here will be dismissed and evicted from the village.
14:43Is that clear?
14:47Now go spread the word.
14:56Can he kick us out of our homes?
14:58He owns near enough the whole village apart from this place.
15:01He'd need an army to evict everyone.
15:03The dragoons and grenadier guards are only down the road.
15:10Maybe it's time to give up.
15:17We've come too far now.
15:19If you start something, you finish it.
15:22No matter how long it takes.
15:33If we surrender now, Joshua Bibby died for nothing.
15:39Do you think his widow and sons want us to give up?
15:44There isn't a family in all of England want the Charter more than they do.
15:48Because when we get it and Parliament is controlled by the working class,
15:52never again will an aristocrat's lackey or a man in uniform get away with murdering a poor man
15:57for the crime of trying to feed his family.
16:01So, those of you who think we should stay out and keep fighting.
16:07Raise your hand.
16:08Yes!
16:10What happened to the secret ballot?
16:12Oh, do you really want to give everyone a stone each?
16:16We're going in.
16:18Because my son died too.
16:20Fighting for an English man's right to be free.
16:40If he wants a war, he's got one.
16:47Mill starts again on Monday.
16:50And you're coming to work with us.
16:52John, no-one speaks to us as it is.
16:54We'll be gone soon.
16:56And we'll still be here.
16:57We're in the past.
16:58We're in the future.
16:59I won't do it.
17:00You'll do as you're told while you're under my roof.
17:02Fine.
17:03I'll go then.
17:04No, no, you won't.
17:06I'll not lose another one.
17:07You go now.
17:08He'll be walking out of this family for good.
17:10We'll not feed you.
17:12I'll feed him.
17:13You won't.
17:14He'll do as I say.
17:17I'm the master of this house.
17:43We've been thrown out to the apprentice's house.
17:45What do you want?
17:48What do you want?
18:12What do you want?
18:25Billy.
18:40Billy.
18:43Billy, wake up.
18:46Billy.
18:47Billy.
18:57He used to cry all the time.
18:59He's saving energy.
19:01We're grateful.
19:05Do you think we should give in?
19:07It's too late.
19:09They won't take us back now.
19:12We'll have to win.
19:47We'll have to win.
20:18Do you look like you've been press gank on Bradwell?
20:20Women and children, step aside.
20:21If there are kinds of men who aren't women, let them show themselves.
20:24Stand gale, don't let them pass.
20:28Arm in arm, we're savages.
20:30It's you with the clubs.
20:32A gang of thieves.
20:33Do you think we'll stand by and watch us steal our jobs?
20:35Let us pass.
20:37We break through.
20:38No.
20:39Never!
20:40That's us.
21:10Let's go!
21:11Let's go!
21:12Let's go!
21:14Let's go!
21:18Shall I fetch Dr. Holland?
21:20He's the manufacturing physician.
21:22They're not our workers any more.
21:24How could you let them do that?
21:28They might be in, but they won't get those machines working.
21:37You know he's gone too far now.
21:40Don't know.
21:53You know he's gone too far now.
22:00He's gone too far now.
22:02But...
22:09You've got to slightly?
22:10I bit one.
22:11He'll probably die of poisoning.
22:12This snake has to bite you.
22:13You might be dead when John Eller gets home.
22:16I'm not scared of him.
22:38I got lost.
22:56Get out.
22:58If he goes, we all go.
23:03I mean it.
23:04I will go if you force me to.
23:12It'll be over by the end of the week.
23:17I don't know how it was.
23:21It'll never be how it was.
23:24This can't be fixed like a wind.
23:28If the poor were in Parliament,
23:30they'd sell their votes to the highest bidder.
23:34MPs have to be rich, independent, educated men,
23:38else no-one would respect them.
23:50I know he's in Manchester.
23:52May I come in?
23:54I have an offer to make.
24:09The children in bed?
24:10Yes.
24:12So you can keep your voice down.
24:17How's Angela?
24:19Hungry.
24:22Same as everybody else.
24:25Your husband's a clever man.
24:26There's no need to go hungry.
24:28What did you want, William?
24:30When my brother offered him a half-share in the loom patent,
24:33do you know how much money he tore up?
24:35Is there anything you care more about than money?
24:37If you were my family, I'd care about you more than he does.
24:39Yeah, well, history says otherwise.
24:41That man and his madness are destroying you.
24:44I hate to see it.
24:47You deserve better.
24:49I want to compensate you for the patent money he squandered.
24:53Daniel would never agree to that.
24:55That's why you must leave him.
24:56Save your children from this suffering.
24:59I'll arrange transport.
25:01Anywhere.
25:02Lancaster.
25:02With your sister, if you wish.
25:04I'll send you an annual allowance to pay for Angela's upbringing.
25:07All I ask is that you leave the man who spends more time
25:10worrying about every damn pauper in the country
25:12than he does about his own family.
25:19The first time Daniel and I walked out together,
25:24he told me men could fly.
25:29I laughed at him.
25:32It's true.
25:35A man has flown
25:37across the English Channel in a balloon.
25:41And Daniel said,
25:43imagine if someone had told Samuel Gregg
25:45when he was a boy that
25:47by the time he was an old man,
25:50people would fly.
25:52He'd thought them mad.
25:54And then he put his hand on my belly.
25:58And he said,
26:01if we can overcome gravity,
26:06do you really think we won't overcome poverty
26:08by the time your baby is Samuel Gregg's age?
26:21First time you and I walked out together,
26:23do you remember what we talked about?
26:28You.
26:30There's the doll.
26:33Don't come back.
26:34Ever.
26:35You're making a huge mistake.
26:36No.
26:37You were the huge mistake.
26:38Angela won't reach my father's age.
26:40Look at you.
26:41Look.
26:42This is so unnecessary.
26:45He's skilled in you.
26:47You used to be beautiful.
26:53I've never felt more beautiful
26:56in my life.
27:08Come on, Billy.
27:10Eh?
27:10I know it's only water,
27:11but it's better than nothing.
27:13Eh?
27:14Look at this lot.
27:15Sat around all day
27:17making the place look ugly.
27:18Go away, patience.
27:20This is the master's niece.
27:21We're off to the pond
27:22to feed the ducks.
27:23Oh, it's too late.
27:25We ate them.
27:26She's joking.
27:27She's joking.
27:28They wouldn't dare.
27:29They haven't eaten in days.
27:31I only wish we could share
27:32some of our bread.
27:34Mind you,
27:35they say your mum is famous
27:36for her charity work.
27:37If the beggars ask nicely enough,
27:39we could toss them a few crumbs.
27:41We'd rather starve.
27:54Please, patience.
27:56If you couldn't spare some of my baby,
27:58it'd be really great for you.
27:59As soon as you ask nicely,
28:01and it's a bit stale.
28:06Is that...
28:26You're welcome.
28:29Come on.
28:33Should we just talk here?
28:37She should have taken off her by force.
28:42Oh.
28:55That'll be my cart now.
28:57Yeah.
28:57Yeah.
29:01Probably have to walk home.
29:02I'll be back by midnight.
29:04As long as someone can shut my duel up.
29:09Daniel Bate?
29:10Get out of my house.
29:11Are you Daniel Bate?
29:13No, he isn't.
29:14Get out.
29:15I have an order for your arrest
29:16and charges of sedition
29:17in right of the assembly.
29:18You're coming with us.
29:19I'm not taking him.
29:20Leave him alone.
29:20You have to let me go, love.
29:21I've got nothing wrong.
29:22Look at the kids.
29:23Daniel.
29:25No.
29:26No.
29:27We're all taking him.
29:28Let him go.
29:29No.
29:29Stay out of it.
29:31We need to stop him.
29:32Take him.
29:36He's been arrested for sedition.
29:37Can we hang for that?
29:38Susanna, I'll be back soon.
29:41Are you watching this?
29:44I have the same uniform.
29:45You're somewhere.
29:46This is what I'm killing my phone.
29:47This is what he died for.
29:49Is it?
29:50No.
29:55Don't give them the excuse.
29:57They think if they arrest one man,
29:58this will end.
29:59There's a meeting today in Manchester.
30:01I'd like someone to go in my place.
30:03Stay strong.
30:03Be resolute.
30:04Keep fighting our causes, Joss.
30:08Last.
30:10No one order.
30:14What do we do now?
30:16I'd like someone to go to Manchester.
30:18Tell them what happened.
30:19Would it be our best book's mum?
30:23No, I can't do it.
30:25Joss, you're coming.
30:26Give him here.
30:27Give him.
30:28Excuse me.
30:43Lily?
30:47Lily?
30:49Billy?
30:52Billy?
31:01What do you want?
31:03There's a baby here.
31:05I need to get to Wilmsworth to fetch Dr Hollard.
31:08Will you drive me?
31:09Go away.
31:10I don't believe you.
31:11There's a child dying.
31:13Do you think I'm a fool?
31:15You can't afford a doctor.
31:17What kind of man are you?
31:19I'm not a hackney service.
31:21I drive myself.
31:31I'm sorry.
31:33But there it is, a dying child.
31:58I didn't knock in case awoke.
32:02Hey.
32:03If it's any consolation, he isn't alone.
32:06Hundreds have been arrested.
32:07But there's going to be a session at the new Bailey.
32:12He's really not here with you.
32:16I'm sorry.
32:18I'm sorry.
32:19I'm sorry.
32:22I couldn't make him take anything.
32:29And he...
32:32He went...
32:45I swear to you, Billy got no less than our Tony.
32:49And we've been feeling more than one baby all the time.
32:51He made what they need.
32:52I know Tony's bigger and stronger, but I was feeding him so this too.
32:59I'm sorry.
33:01I don't want to see him.
33:05I don't know.
33:07I don't know.
33:11They've accepted him now that he's dead.
33:15I don't know.
33:22Feed your boy.
33:24It's not your fault.
33:29I'm sorry.
33:32I'm sorry.
33:32Oh, no.
33:33Oh, dear.
33:33What else do you think?
33:34No.
33:37Oh, dear.
33:59Ladies and gentlemen,
34:00Don't you remember what it was?
34:03I need to see him.
34:07I'll come in with you.
34:28I'm sorry for your loss.
34:31I'm sorry for yours.
34:33It should never have come to this.
34:35No, it shouldn't.
34:37You had a choice.
34:39Shut up, John.
34:40If it's anyone's fault, it's yours.
34:42She's her mother.
34:44She didn't know her own child was starving.
34:46I knew.
34:50Where is he?
35:23I knew her.
35:26She's coming.
35:27What are you going to do?
35:29I'm sorry.
35:30I'm sorry.
35:31I'm sorry.
35:31That's right.
35:33I'm sorry.
35:35I love you.
35:35That's right.
35:36I don't want to know.
35:45I've been watching you.
35:48You're the brains behind the business.
35:50I just deal with the books.
35:51No, Master William was born to it.
35:53But you earned it.
35:55Worked your way up.
35:57I think you knew the size of that wage cut was too much to bear.
36:02What do you want?
36:04Esther's baby died tonight.
36:10Daniel Bates been arrested.
36:12His wife's coming to see Master William tomorrow to talk.
36:16Can you persuade him to compromise?
36:18All I can do is advise.
36:20Well, advise him that people are angry.
36:23And if he keeps hitting us while we're down, he'll only make things worse.
36:26Do you understand that?
36:28I do.
36:29Can you make him understand it?
36:33I'll try.
37:00I'll try.
37:30I'll try.
37:33He'll be an idler.
37:34So I persuaded him to enlist.
37:37I wanted him to serve.
37:39To follow in your brother's footsteps.
37:43He was a good boy.
37:45He always tried to please his father.
37:49I know I blamed you.
37:52But I was wrong.
37:54It wasn't your fault.
37:57It was.
37:58I can accept that burden because I'm proud of him and the choices he made.
38:03Just like Abe can be proud of this boy.
38:07David's your father.
38:08Died for his country.
38:11Job followed his example.
38:14Well, what did your son die for?
38:16He's my son now.
38:17Why did he die when his mother knew he was starving?
38:20I'm more to blame than she is.
38:22No, you're not.
38:23Stop it.
38:23I should have put food on their table.
38:25You should have left it.
38:26Don't stop the work.
38:28Can we all stop blaming each other?
38:31Someone's to blame.
38:32Why?
38:33Why does there always have to be a scum?
38:35Oh, because they...
38:38John's right about one thing.
38:41I am proud of your father, Will.
38:43He was a hero, same as Job.
38:46I wanted him to be a shoemaker.
38:49I was teaching him.
38:51When trade was slow and we were hungry,
38:53I taught him how to hunt wild rabbits on the common.
38:57And then things changed
38:58and rabbits belonged to someone
39:00and hunting them became boaching.
39:02And when he was only 14,
39:04he was caught for the second time,
39:06which in the eyes of the law
39:07made him an incorrigible rogue.
39:11So he had a choice.
39:13Seven years' transportation
39:14or take the King's Shilling.
39:18Australia or the army.
39:20What kind of a choice was that, John?
39:23A poor man's choice.
39:27Same as Job's.
39:31One is for we were poor.
39:34And in any one person's fault
39:37that Esther's baby has died.
39:39I'm sorry.
39:42But it's just not true.
39:44We're responsible for our own actions.
40:08All I've got left to lose is my life,
40:11and I'm ready for that.
40:13But if you cancel the wage cuts
40:15and take us back at the old rates,
40:17we'll forget about the charter.
40:20But when we say all,
40:22we mean it.
40:24Every striker, including Daniel.
40:27The law must take its course.
40:29I have no power to intervene.
40:31A ship to Bodney Bay awaits, I'm afraid.
40:33And a ship to Dominica awaits
40:34the man who assaulted Mr. Howlett.
40:36You'll have to get rid of Howlett.
40:37No-one will work with him.
40:38They'll have to.
40:40But as a sign of good faith,
40:41I'll allow Mr. Gardiner to stay.
40:44Is that wise, Master?
40:46Drew a gun on me last night.
40:48And how did he get a gun?
40:50He took mine.
40:52You pointed it at his face
40:55while he was pleading with you
40:56to get the doctor and save my son.
40:59All of us,
41:01or none of us.
41:06Mr. Winder will apologise to Mr. Gardiner.
41:10I'll instruct Howlett to make his peace with him.
41:13I can't free your husband
41:15any more than I can grant the charter.
41:17But to make up for it,
41:20I'll take you back.
41:23He's cancelled the wage cuts
41:26and taken us all back.
41:28It's a good deal.
41:29No-one could have done better.
41:33The way you can move on
41:35is more important right now.
41:38You'll have to wait for the vote.
41:43I was Angie's age at Peterloo.
41:47Up on my dad's shoulders when they charged.
41:52My earliest memory
41:54is a man on a horse
41:55slicing through a crowd with a sabre.
41:58First battle in the fight for democracy.
42:03I thought this
42:05would be the last.
42:11I know
42:13sometimes I put
42:14our family second to...
42:17What?
42:20The family of men?
42:23You don't understand, don't you?
42:25Our son
42:26is alive.
42:31And Esther's isn't.
42:36Do you understand that?
42:42Will you wait for me?
42:47I've never regretted
42:48the day you stopped that card.
42:54I never will.
42:55I'll be back before.
42:58Before we get the vote.
43:00They say in seven years, but...
43:02You told Puddlemen
43:03we're back in three.
43:04Can you manage on your own
43:05till then?
43:08I won't be on my yacht.
43:11I'll be in the mill
43:12with the girls.
43:15Time's up.
43:20I love you.
43:23I love you, too.
43:25Aye, aye.
43:27All right.
43:27That's enough.
43:29Goodbye.
43:31Come on, come on.
43:32Time's up.
43:48I am the resurrection
43:49and the life.
43:51He that believeth in me,
43:53though he were dead,
43:56and whosoever liveth
43:57and believeth in me
43:58shall never die.
44:00I am the light.
44:02I am.
44:11It's over.
44:18There is no place.
44:20Little wife, too.
44:21You have to be in
44:22You have to be
44:22in the middle size.
44:23They are walking around
44:23or near the hill.
44:23You are right.
44:23You are welcome.
44:24You are of them.
44:26You are great.
44:28You are a our weak baby.
44:28You are a man who's
44:30You are a hero for use.
44:32Come on, everyone, let's go to it.
44:41Time shall come when man shall come.
44:46It's brother, dear, that's all mine.
44:48Here they come, master.
44:50And he will save this free for mine.
44:53And I'll sell them all from human mind.
44:58Toil, I'll promise more.
45:01Your whole life!
45:02Toil, I'll promise more.
45:04Cost your core a day!
45:05Toil, I'll promise more.
45:09Toil, I'll promise more.
45:29Toil, I'll promise more.
45:32Let's do that.
45:38Toil, I'll promise more.
45:41I love today!
45:42As in as in as I knew it, the way that veo so often twice were back,
45:45nor did I go wrong?
45:45I love you too.
46:20I'm sorry.
46:22What for?
46:24The gun.
46:28This is James Scottson.
46:32Daniel Bates' replacement.
46:36This gentleman is...
46:42Peter Gardner.
46:48Watch him.
47:15Where have you been?
47:17Where have you been?
47:18Without permission, you owe me an explanation, Bryce.
47:22Yeah, and you owe us a quarter of your wages, Knobstick.
47:24Here we go.
47:32Here we go.
47:37Here we go.
47:38Here he is.
47:39Here he is.
