00:00Say it, I don't want to be separated from my sister.
00:03I'm sorry, you were judged unfit for work, but I'm going to let you escape.
00:09How can you support the abolition of slavery bill when your family work English children until they drop?
00:17Tommy's here.
00:17Move!
00:18Shoot him now!
00:19Mr. Gregg wants me to design and build a loom that turns a skilled man's job into something even a
00:24pregnant woman can do.
00:25And there's to be a demonstration, the biggest the country has ever seen.
00:28I'm not interested.
00:29I just want to earn a living.
00:30Well, I'm 17 and I'll prove it.
00:32I'm going back to Liverpool.
00:33I'll never make it.
00:34You will if I come with you.
00:36Help me find my certificate and I'll help you find your sister.
00:45Hey!
00:59Come on, you idle lot!
01:00Get to work!
01:02Move!
01:04Esther!
01:05Bruce Lee!
01:10Where have they gone?
01:15Where have they gone?
01:22I know where they'll be heading.
01:29I know where they'll be heading.
01:42We must be halfway by now.
01:45Only halfway?
01:47I'll have to sit down again soon.
01:51Shh!
01:55Let's try and get a lift.
02:02Esther!
02:07No!
02:11You can't outrun a horse!
02:24Whoa!
02:26Whoa!
02:27Stand!
02:28Oh, my God.
03:01Get on.
03:02Do you know what you're doing?
03:03No.
03:05Oi!
03:05Mr. T!
03:10Not smiling now!
03:16Hey!
03:17You can't open the hall!
03:42Sorry, did I disturb you?
03:44Which one were you today?
03:46Lester's run off with the new girl
03:48because someone told her
03:50she could find her baptism certificate.
03:53Might find, I think I said.
03:56As if it mattered.
04:01What's this?
04:06Where did you get it?
04:08One of the carters.
04:11There'll be big trouble
04:13if Master Roberts sees this.
04:16We best give it back, then.
04:34They could handle us for this.
04:35It's theft.
04:37We can't go back now.
04:40I don't care.
04:42I can sell it.
04:43Live on the money till we get jobs.
04:45So you don't need your baptism certificate any more?
04:48No, I do.
04:49I need to see her.
04:51It doesn't matter how old you are.
04:53It'll help me find my family.
04:56I'd find your sister first.
04:59How long since you were here?
05:01I don't know.
05:03You don't recognise me.
05:09Look, I'll be your older sister.
05:11Say, I've come for Catherine
05:12because I've got the means to support her now.
05:14Timpley will expect me to come here, you know.
05:19We're a long way ahead of him.
05:25Esther!
05:47I think it's about that big meeting that you went to.
05:51Robert Gregg's mother, the hypocrite, Mrs. Hannah Gregg.
05:55What's a hypocrite?
05:56When you don't practise what you preach.
06:00Campaigns for the abolition of slavery.
06:04But has she stood shamelessly on stage
06:07beside the estimable Mrs. Prince?
06:10She's not a hypocrite.
06:12And she was ashamed.
06:14Seemingly unaware that her own family,
06:17own and run...
06:21What's going on?
06:25I haven't found this in the privy, Master.
06:28Well?
06:43The privy's where it belongs.
06:45Get back to work.
06:47He's my son.
06:56What did I tell you?
06:59He's been trying to make a slave driver accusation stick for months
07:01and you've just handed it to him on a plate.
07:05All your meetings and petitions may stem from the most honourable of motives, Mother.
07:11But until this battle with Doherty is won, they have to stop.
07:16I'll ask Mrs. Moore to take over as chairman.
07:30I know it's close to your heart, Anna.
07:34But it won't be for long.
07:37The abolition bill is scheduled for the same week as the Factory Act.
07:44The business is in good hands with Robert, isn't it?
08:06Seventeen hundred inmates.
08:07You can't expect me to recall them all by name.
08:15What did she do?
08:17Let's walk back.
08:30Where's Esther?
08:32In there?
08:34Where is she?
08:37Tell me the truth or I'll snap your neck.
08:42She's gone to find a baptism certificate.
08:45We split off.
08:50Can you prove you're a sister?
08:52Why was I offer support to a stranger?
09:02She's not here.
09:03She's been apprenticed.
09:05Quarry Bank Mill.
09:07Are you thinking of me or the sister, Lucy?
09:08No, no.
09:10Both of them.
09:10I remember now.
09:12Catherine and Lucy Garner.
09:13Catherine was sent back here.
09:16Not according to my records.
09:32Lucy.
09:34Lucy!
09:37Lucy!
09:39Lucy!
09:41Lucy!
09:43I don't know.
10:14Published in Manchester by your old sparring partner, John Doherty.
10:19I have no truck with him anymore, you know that.
10:23He prints thousands every week. They pass from hand to hand.
10:26They've never found their way here before.
10:29Perhaps he's redoubling his efforts on account of the ten-hour bill.
10:32I will not allow his cancerous philosophy to take root here.
10:36I'm asking all my men to sign this.
10:43It's a pledge of loyalty.
10:46By signing it, you promise not to join a trade union or any other such combination.
10:51You're an enlightened employer. Why do you need this?
10:54Because, as you just said, Doherty's redoubling his efforts.
10:58I need your name.
11:00I need it too.
11:05You feel that strongly?
11:07I'd rather go back to jail.
11:19Well, you can't very well form a union on your own,
11:22as long as all my other men sign it.
11:23I suppose I can allow you to be the exception for now.
11:39When I became an apprentice, it was against the law for working people to combine.
11:44They acted together, but for whatever reason, it was criminal conspiracy.
11:49Now your unions are legal, but you're dismissed if you join one.
11:59Daniel, if you didn't make your sign, why does it matter?
12:03Oh, he needs me now.
12:04He'll make the other sign.
12:05And what happens when the loom's adapting?
12:07He can stop automatically.
12:09Yeah, well, that could be a while, yeah.
12:11Oh, Daniel!
12:19Let's take a walk Sunday.
12:21I want to show you something.
12:27I can't.
12:31I wouldn't be allowed.
12:50Come on, get down.
12:53Come on, get down.
12:55Come here.
12:56Seven days.
12:58Lost labour and expenses to be made up in overtime.
13:00With good riddance to a partner in crime, I'd say.
13:04I think we'll all be glad not to clasp eyes on that hellcat again.
13:07What kind of an example would that set?
13:12Finder.
13:30No, nothing.
13:38It could be P-R-Y-C.
13:49Maybe I am only 15.
13:50Try 18-18.
14:05Chop your sack barret off there and get them sacks me through there.
14:10Any work, mister?
14:14What can you do?
14:15Anything.
14:17I haven't eaten for days and me gutter cares to me, dear.
14:20Around here, there's only one shade open to a girl like you.
14:24I'm not that hungry.
14:33Bear a pardon, please.
14:38Oi!
14:40Oh, I was just begging.
14:42Daddy, no, I'm not like you.
14:44I'd never do that.
14:45I'll go somewhere else.
14:46Let's go.
15:00Oh, I'll go.
15:01Oh, my God.
15:36You do the crime.
15:38I do the suffering.
15:41Where's the justice?
16:00Push it back, and the fingers will close.
16:03That's it.
16:06Now, you'll never thread shawls, piece yarn,
16:09but at least you'll be able to do a basic grab.
16:12Let's try it.
16:13Yeah.
16:14Grab that pan.
16:21Bring it back to close.
16:23Oh, look.
16:25That's so clever.
16:26Yeah.
16:28Let go, let go, let go.
16:34Oh, look.
16:35Daniel's brought me a new hand.
16:37He'll need to practise.
16:39And why have you brought this into my kitchen?
16:44I wanted your permission to ask Susanna to walk out next Sunday.
16:49Is she's willing?
16:50Oh, she's far too willing as well you know.
16:53A ploughed feels easier to dig.
16:56Is that your thinking?
16:56No.
16:57If you prefer a chaperone...
16:59It's a bit too late for that, isn't it?
17:02So do we have your permission or not?
17:06No.
17:07A walk this week.
17:09Is Sodom and Gomorrah next?
17:10Let her go, Mrs Timperley.
17:13She'd be leaving the Prentice house when the child's born.
17:16It's good.
17:17She's making a life for herself.
17:20Now, schoolroom, boys.
17:28It seems we have a blessing.
17:43That job, what does it pay?
17:46You used to be a lot picky about the work you do.
17:50What does it pay?
17:53You'll be half the price you're here.
18:24Sit down.
18:35Did you try the workhouse?
18:37Yeah, they'd send me back.
18:39I haven't found what I'm looking for yet.
18:41What's that?
18:42Just get on with it.
18:50Have you done this before?
18:53Not today.
19:13I could fix you a little one in the cotton towns.
19:17Might find work more to your liking.
19:22Staying here.
19:24That good, was it?
19:28Think I'm in love?
19:30No.
19:35Okay.
19:44Huh?
19:46Look.
19:48Good.
19:50Good.
19:51Good.
19:56We're not here in ground.
19:58We're not going now.
19:59Where did you learn to write, child?
20:01I worked in a cotton mill, learned there.
20:04Do you keep baptism certificates?
20:08I've had several prices in my parish over the years.
20:10Really?
20:11I'd have to dig around.
20:13Why don't you come back in a couple of days?
20:48Where are we going?
20:50You'll see.
21:01You'll see.
21:29What is this?
21:30What's it for?
21:33It's an hour bill.
21:34And they'll have to pass it after this.
21:36How can they not?
21:37We may not have the vote, but we have a voice.
21:41This will go down in history.
21:43Where are we?
21:44Wibsey.
21:46Welcome back.
21:52Is it true Robert Gregg's introduced in the document?
21:56We'll get in the upper hand.
21:58And he knows it.
22:00Keep in touch, Dan.
22:08Who's he?
22:11We used to work together.
22:14Come on.
22:24Parliament calls for us to concede.
22:28We cry.
22:31Has anyone ever seen such a show of unity and strength?
22:36Do you think they'll hear us in Parliament?
22:40Yes.
22:42They'd better.
22:45Why do the masters fear effective regulation?
22:49Why should they be free to do as they wish, while the rest of us suffer?
22:55Yes.
22:56Many of these greedy speculators are launching a counterattack and forcing their men to sign what they call the document.
23:08But we will not sign away our God-given rights that we fought so long to regain.
23:16The right to assemble and combine like this.
23:21The right to speak our mind and put our case and fight for a better future for our children.
23:45Ten hours?
23:48Can you imagine that? That's more than half a day to yourself.
23:52Do you really think that he can win?
23:54It's not he, it's us.
23:56He can't win, but together, maybe we can.
24:03Oh, he was amazing, wasn't he?
24:06He's just one man.
24:08Put your faith in one man, and you'll be disappointed.
24:12This is bigger than John Docketer.
24:15Yeah. I can see that.
24:20And I saw the real you today.
24:23There was a light in your eyes.
24:26But there was a company.
24:39What now?
24:43I don't know.
24:49I know what you want to do.
24:51What?
24:58I swear the other men not to sign Robert Greggs' document.
25:03If I'm the only one who doesn't.
25:04Well, then, you'll be one man.
25:08He.
25:10Not I.
25:24Back on.
25:31George!
25:32Your sister's back.
25:34Think she's carrying twins.
25:57Come on, you idle brat!
25:59Get your word!
26:01Move!
26:20Your time's up, and if you ever, ever come up here, up here again.
26:41Oh, my God.
27:04Ah, good.
27:06You're here.
27:07Did you find anything?
27:09I did.
27:11Follow me.
27:15Is it my certificate?
27:17Come to the office and I'll show you.
27:24Now, why don't you sit down and I'll show you what I found?
27:29Gotcha.
27:31Didn't expect that now, did you?
27:33The Gregg family are well known in this city.
27:35And useful employment in an honest profession is the best possible deterrent to idleness and vice.
27:41I've done you a big favor.
27:42Thank you, Reverend.
27:43Uh...
27:44Uh...
27:44Huh?
27:46Uh...
27:48Uh...
27:53Uh...
29:27We've done it!
29:28Sorry.
29:32We've done it.
29:43Come on, you.
29:44Down.
29:46Get your feet down there.
29:52Down, dog.
29:54Come on.
30:04Come on.
30:06Come on.
30:08Come on.
30:10Come on.
30:11Come on.
30:11What is that?
30:12Where do you think you are?
30:13You can run faster than I can.
30:14You want me to be a guardian?
30:15Hey!
30:16Have you no shame?
30:20This isn't one of the slave plantations.
30:23This is England!
30:24Dad, stop it!
30:24You can't...
30:26You can't...
30:27You can't talk like that.
30:28Not now.
30:37I'll take those off, yeah.
30:41What?
30:51Did you hear that, master?
30:52Did you hear him?
30:53I heard.
30:55I'll deal with him. I've got to help with Esther Price.
30:58Mr. Henshaw, take her to the apprentice house and wait for me there, please.
31:02I hope you won't rely on the beat for punishment this time, sir.
31:07No. No, I won't.
31:09Come through, please, Mr. Timpling.
31:11Sit down.
31:14Is anything wrong?
31:17The irons were an unfortunate necessity.
31:20You know what she's like?
31:21It's your wife, John.
31:25She's passed away. I'm very sorry.
31:29Shh.
31:31How?
31:34She was climbing stairs. Had a seizure.
32:00Come in.
32:01Come in.
32:23Take them.
32:25Take them.
32:29Now, cut off her hair.
32:31No!
32:32No!
32:33Get off me!
32:34You need to learn.
32:36Actions have consequences.
32:38Cut off her hair.
32:39No!
32:40No!
32:40I'll do it!
32:41This is justice, not revenge.
32:44Cut it.
32:45Cut it.
32:47Cut her hair, or I'll cut yours.
32:49I was.
33:04I'll do it.
33:05generations.
33:05Cut it.
33:05Cut it.
33:13Cut it.
33:15Cut it.
33:16Cut it.
33:18Cut it.
33:19Cut it.
33:25again
33:29all of it
33:54all
34:24Move.
34:25Sharpish.
34:45She was left to run a house for 60 ungrateful urchins without her soulmates to share the burden.
34:54I missed her final moments.
34:57Because of you.
35:06Ten days is not enough.
35:11And this will grow.
35:18Are you gonna move her?
35:20I'm waiting for the undertaker.
35:24You lay a hand on her sainted body and I will break your neck.
35:57We've got weeks left yet.
35:58Come on.
35:58We've a long way to go.
36:00Aren't we going to Wilms, though?
36:01Alternative arrangements have been made.
36:02Nothing to worry about.
36:03I need to pack my things.
36:05It's done.
36:06Can I not only say goodbye to my brother and my sister?
36:08They're working.
36:09I'm leaving.
36:10I'm not leaving without seeing him.
36:20I'm leaving.
36:24I'm leaving.
36:30You know, we're leaving.
36:35We're leaving.
36:38I'm going.
36:40I'm getting it.
36:49Susanna?
36:50I'm going. I'm being taken.
36:52Have you gone into labour?
36:53Get out of the way.
36:54Where are you taking her?
36:55She's starting her confinement.
36:56No, he's lying. It's too early.
37:01Why is this happening now?
37:03Mr. Greg wants her to complete her indentures in Lancaster.
37:06He can't do that. He made me a promise.
37:08Well, his family owns several mills.
37:10Is she concerned she's with any one of them?
37:11Well, she's not going.
37:12That's Mr. Greg's decision. There's nothing you can do.
37:20Marry me, Susanna.
37:22If Mr. Greg allows.
37:26Susanna, will you please do me the honour of becoming my wife?
37:37You made me a promise.
37:40Yes, that was before you went to Wibsey Moor.
37:43We had Mrs. Greg's permission.
37:44To join a mob of 100,000 strong.
37:47To come back here and spread their propaganda.
37:50If Susanna goes,
37:52I go too.
37:55We go together
37:56as man and wife.
38:01You're laying claim to another man's child.
38:03No child should belong to any man.
38:06My views are a little more paternal.
38:09I love her.
38:11And I'll bring up her child as my own.
38:13We don't want to go.
38:17I want to stay here.
38:19And Daniel wants to finish your loom.
38:22I will not cause you any further trouble.
38:45Sign that.
38:46Sign it.
38:47And I'll allow you to stay in the village
38:49as Mr. and Mrs. Bate.
38:52happily ever after.
38:57You plumb this.
39:16You don't have to do this.
