00:02Dear Mother, I write to let you know that I will not be joining you at Pemberley just
00:09yet, as I am still very much needed in London.
00:13The Gardener's governess has indeed returned, but we find ourselves quite overrun with social
00:18engagements.
00:21You will be excited to hear that I have been invited to one of Lady Winspear's weekly
00:26balls.
00:27I am very much looking forward to it.
00:31I miss you all.
00:38Yours, Mary.
00:41The Gardener's governess has returned from Norfolk, has she not?
00:44Yes.
00:45Yes, a week ago.
00:46Well then, the ball is perfectly timed for you to find a husband.
00:51A husband?
00:52Whatever else do you plan to do?
00:57Someone who was once a friend told me that a woman has two choices in life, marriage
01:02or misery.
01:04What do you think?
01:06Mary, it is not too late for marriage, if that's what you're asking me.
01:10And I do believe it's the better choice, but I'm not the only one.
01:14Some marriages are miserable.
01:16I agree.
01:18I mean, I did once try to find a husband, but it was unsuccessful.
01:24My mother has always said no one will marry a girl in spectacles.
01:27Mary, that is nonsense.
01:29What a terrible thing for your mother to say.
01:33Well, you may not have had luck in the past, but this time it's different.
01:37This time, you have me.
01:40Under my tutelage, you will become the star of London society.
01:46It's all about confidence.
01:47A certain coolness.
01:49I think you care too much.
01:52Really?
01:53Hmm.
01:55Have you ever polished your skin?
02:02We put this in the pipkin, and the pipkin in the fire until the wax melts.
02:06Then we spread it on your face.
02:07You're going to look radiant, Mary.
02:10I'm going to smell like soup.
02:15What on earth?
02:26There.
02:27Thanks.
02:39Mary, you have stew on your face.
02:43Er...
02:51Oh, now we need to work on your walk.
02:54Step into the room like you are Lady Winspear herself.
03:06Hmm.
03:07Walk normally.
03:14I'm excited for you, Mary.
03:16New love is the most romantic thing.
03:20New love?
03:20Yes.
03:21The first rose.
03:22Oh, you must not take it for granted.
03:24Because the feelings soon pass, and then everything becomes quite ordinary.
03:29It's almost impossible to remember how one felt at the beginning.
03:35Now walk.
03:37Shoulders back.
03:38Chin up.
03:39Chin down.
03:40Chin up a little.
03:41Don't look scared.
03:42Quite hard not to.
03:46Remember.
03:47You are only allowed two dancers with the same partner.
03:50Make eye contact fleetingly with the men you want to dance with, and avoid the eyes of those you do
03:55not.
03:55If a man asks you to dance, do not look too happy.
03:58Nor too disappointed, depending on who he is.
04:02You must look nonchalant.
04:03Nonchalant.
04:04Carefree.
04:10Mary, think back to those times in your childhood when you had not a care in the world.
04:20Hmm.
04:38Remember, Mary, the most important thing is to be yourself.
04:54Oh, look.
05:02Isn't it beautiful?
05:16Do not frighten.
05:18The night has only just begun.
05:22Good evening, Miss Baxter.
05:24Miss Bennett.
05:25Doesn't Miss Bennett look beautiful?
05:28Well, as do you, Anne.
05:37Mr. Haywin, how would you like to dance with Miss Bennett?
05:40No, I know.
05:41It will show how eligible you are.
05:47I don't suppose you have much room for me on your card.
05:50But if there is, I would be very glad to dance with you.
05:53Oh, well, there might be.
05:56Let me just check.
05:59Yes.
06:00Yes.
06:01We could dance.
06:03Thank you, Mr. Haywood.
06:11Mr. Haywood, how are you?
06:13Miss Bennett?
06:16Miss Bennett?
06:17It's very well.
06:19Miss Bennett?
06:19How are you?
06:21Two, two, three, two, three, two, three, two, three.
06:33Jesus, yes.
06:34Sorry, sorry, sorry.
06:38Jesus, yes.
06:39Jesus, yes.
06:47Jesus, yes.
06:50I hear that.
06:53Jesus, yes.
07:02Jesus, yes.
07:03Jesus, yes.
07:38Thank you, Mr. Tain.
07:41Miss Bennett.
07:47It was a fine minuet.
07:51Oh, now you two, you must dance together.
07:55I'm going to go.
07:57Oh, Mary, do you mind?
08:38Excuse me.
08:40It's you.
08:41It is indeed.
08:43William Ryder.
08:44Of course, Mr. Ryder.
08:46Well, it is a pleasure to see you again so soon.
08:52Would you like to dance?
08:54Well, perhaps later.
08:56My feet are quiet.
08:59Then let us sit and gather your strength.
09:22I find these occasions really quite intolerable.
09:25All these poor young ladies parading about, bearing the weight of their parents' expectations.
09:31It's not the least romantic.
09:33I think these occasions mean a great deal to many young women, and for good reason.
09:39None of them wants to fail.
09:43But doesn't it seem to you, Miss Bennett, that most people give far too much weight to the idea of
09:49marriage?
09:50Because for some people, that is their only means of survival.
09:53In matters of men and women, the only thing that should guide us is the heart.
10:00Do you really believe that to be true?
10:02Well, I believe we should sweep away these tired old rules and follow our inclinations as we wish.
10:13I think you will find, Mr. Ryder, that the liberty in such situations tends to be enjoyed by the man.
10:21While the consequences are borne, quite literally in many cases, by the woman.
10:28Perhaps you're right.
10:29I know I am.
10:39Dance with me, Miss Bennett.
10:41Come on.
11:07You're supposed to be fun, I think.
11:11You are allowed to breathe while you dance, Miss Bennett.
11:14I am breathing.
11:16I heard that you are a great reader of very serious books.
11:22I am reading Wordsworth, currently.
11:24Ah.
11:24But what do you really enjoy reading, Miss Bennett?
11:28Histories.
11:29No, no, no.
11:30I mean, what is your secret intelligence?
11:35What I really enjoyed reading, as a child, were the servants' pamphlets.
11:42They detail the most grisly crimes.
11:46I knew there was a bold and curious side to you, Miss Bennett.
11:50I had to hide them from my mother.
11:52I bet you did.
11:59Oh my gosh, look at that.
12:23You tripped?
12:25I did not trip.
12:26It was a deliberate replenishment of the glove.
12:30mary miss baxter i was just about to ask miss bennett to dance again
12:36oh uh thank you mr rider but i will sit this one out
12:39ah then allow me to fetch you both some ices ladies

12:57took
12:57much notice of his looks mary i did not well he certainly noticed you that's kind of you to say
13:04but he doesn't think of me in that way and actually that makes much more enjoyable

16:08she seems to delight in being horrible to me
16:13i have no idea what i've done to provoke her
16:15did she not once fancy herself as marrying your sister's husband
16:19mr darcy
16:20she did
16:21yes
16:21perhaps she feels threatened by you
16:26caroline bingley is not threatened by me

16:32very well
16:34she's always beautifully dressed
16:36and she has extraordinary confidence
16:39she does not appear to lack confidence
16:41that is certain
16:42perhaps underneath that brittle exterior
16:45lies doubts and insecurities
16:47the same as everyone else
16:49and she treats you as though you're beneath her
16:51to make herself feel good
16:52it riles her to see you blossoming in london

16:58you've changed
17:00you smile more
17:01and you laugh
17:03well i
17:05oh

18:12ah yes
18:13they are for show

19:00yes
19:00exactly
19:01now

19:07before the guests sit
19:10uh
19:10very well
19:12please excuse us
19:16i have to say miss bennett
19:18how refreshing it is
19:19to see a young woman with the courage to defy the dictates of fashion
19:22when most of us are foolish enough to want to look as well as we possibly can
19:27you are an example to us all
19:45mr hayward we are here
19:48where are you mary
19:56i copy mary
19:59what do you my stuff
20:06what do you do
20:11oh
20:37Mr. Hurst, have you ever read Catherine McCauley's work?
20:41No.
20:42She's most insightful on democracy, if you're interested.
20:45No.
20:51What think you of James Hutton's theory that the Earth is perpetually being formed?
20:58I have no interest in geology.
21:00What do you like, Mr. Hurst?
21:05Horses. Horses.
21:06Oh, I know so little about horses, you think I would be honoured if you would teach me all you
21:11know.
21:12We won't have time for that.
21:14Let's just see how we get on.
21:16Right.
21:19Right.
21:21Four legs.
21:24Cannot vomit.
21:26Beautiful creatures.
21:28Beautiful.
21:28Almost too beautiful.
21:29More intelligent than anyone at this table.
21:33Perhaps if I was to construct a horse, then we'd know.
21:36I appreciate that.
21:37Right.
21:37I've done this before.
21:38I'm sure I can do it again.
21:39Fascinating.
21:40These are the front legs here.
21:42We call these the cloppers.
21:45Back legs.
21:46The clippers.
21:47Ah.
21:47Clip clop.
21:48Right?
21:49You see what I'm saying?
21:50You do not want to stand behind a horse.
21:52You do not want to.
21:53I do not want to.
21:56What can a horse do?
21:58You tell me.
21:59Well, it can run, but it can also break your heart.
22:03I can see it.
22:04That is our horse.
22:06What shall we name it?
22:07Gerald.
22:09Gerald.
22:10Gerald.
22:11Let's enter him at York.
22:14Probably faster than the horse I bet on last week.
22:22Thank you, sir.
22:23I shall never wager any significant amount of money without consulting you first.
22:34Miss Bennett.
22:36I was hoping to speak to you.
22:39Really?
22:40Well, I couldn't let this evening pass without having the privilege of talking to you properly.
22:45It's a shame, then, that you chose to seat me so far from you at dinner.
22:52You met Lady Catherine once, did you not?
22:55I did.
22:56Only recently we were talking about your family, and she confessed herself astonished at the great
23:01difference between you and your sisters.
23:03She felt that you were not as handsome as Elizabeth, nor as provoking, not as beautiful
23:11as Jane, nor as willing as Kitty, and, well, who could measure up to Lydia's joie de vivre?
23:21It was very candid of her.
23:22She is known for her frankness.
23:24I sometimes wonder if frankness isn't just a poor excuse for unkindness.
23:32Tell me, Miss Bennett, do you intend to marry?
23:37Let's assume we all must marry in the end.
23:41Perhaps you might allow me to offer you a little advice, if you wish.
23:46It seems to me that a great deal of time is thrown away in pursuit of attachments that
23:53can never come to anything, such as Mr. Ryder.
24:01Do you mean to suggest that I am pursuing Mr. Ryder?
24:04Or that he is pursuing me?
24:07For both are quite without foundation.
24:09And yet it seems you do all you can to please him.
24:12I cannot imagine why else he would speak of you as he does.
24:17What do you mean?
24:18Confine yourself to your proper sphere, Miss Bennett.
24:21Presumptions of this kind only lead to disappointment and humiliation, where matters of the heart are
24:27concerned.
24:31You seem to know a great deal about rejection.
24:34Is this a lesson you've learned from extensive study?
24:38Or do you perhaps owe it to experience of a more personal nature?
24:50Oh, Miss Bingley.
24:52Miss Bingley, welcome to the gate.
24:53I fear I'm in the bad most of the sense of the way.
24:59It was a very thorough lesson in horse racing.
25:01You had a dinner, Miss Bennett.
25:03Ah, it was, yes, most interesting.
25:08I wanted to say that...
25:12I wanted to ask...
25:14Or that is to say, I had noticed at the ball that Mr. Ryder had occupied a great deal
25:18of your time.
25:20And he often acts without thinking.
25:22I'd be very glad to ask him to be more restrained if that is what you would like.
25:28Mr. Garth, I very much enjoy his company.
25:32I don't...
25:36I see.
25:37No, I...
25:38Of course, I...
25:38No, no, no.
25:39Forgive my intrusion.
25:40No, that is to say, I'm...
25:42I'm not drawn to him.
25:44Miss Bennet, girl.
25:45What do you say was plain?
25:46Oh, the governess.
25:48She was the only one of the five not to marry.
25:50Can you imagine?
25:51She didn't look very plain to me.
25:53She was tolerable.
25:54And you can see Ryder's interest in her.
25:56If I were here, I'd snap her up before some other fellow does.
25:59Excuse me?
26:00I believe Miss Bennet would like to sing for us.
26:04How lovely, Mary.
26:06Oh, I have no wish to do anything of the sort.
26:08Oh, come on, Miss Bennet.
26:09You must sing.
26:10Sing!
26:11Sing!
26:12Sing!
26:13Sing!
26:14Sing!
26:16Sing!
26:16Sing!
26:18Sing!
26:19Sing!
26:20Sing!
26:21Sing!
26:21Sing!
26:26Mary, Mary, we must get you to Pemberley immediately.
26:29We have received an urgent letter.
26:31Your mother's been taken gravely ill.
26:33Oh!
26:33Take your carriage and go.
26:34Now.
26:35Oh!
26:46Come on, Mary. You must hurry.
26:48Come, dear.
