00:00You
00:57Look out
00:58Here's your majesty
00:59I reckon she can smell it when you're not working
01:01You there
01:03Machine mended
01:05Yes
01:05Then use it
01:07There's many to take her place
01:22The child is ill
01:24Send her home
01:25I can't afford something
01:26The child cannot work
01:31Is there another child at home
01:34Well if you can get her here within the hour
01:37You can keep the place
01:40In the hour of mine
01:41I'll lose it
01:55Whatever you think best mother
01:58You know how this mill works almost better than I do
02:03You ask me what I miss most about the countryside
02:06Well Edith
02:08In Milton you cannot feel the seasons change around you
02:11But I do think that at long last we've put winter behind us
02:15And I can resume my daily walks
02:19I don't know why you're blaming me
02:20I don't know why you're blaming me
02:20I can play tricks out to Ashley
02:21That's your decision
02:22If you get it wrong we all suffer
02:24If you want it 5% would you have given it to them?
02:26No
02:27But I would have told them straight
02:29I wouldn't pretend I were thinking about it
02:31And told them to come back on payday
02:32So that I could turn them down flat and provoke them
02:34Are you accusing me of trying to encourage a strike?
02:36Are you telling me that it wouldn't have suited you?
02:38It's their lives and our lives we're going to play with
02:40Then you would handle your work as best
02:43I will not be deliberately deceived
02:45Good day
02:52Here is the address of our doctor
02:56He did not need to visit in person
02:58He could have sent a servant
03:02Oh you've been in this heathen climate for some time now Miss Hale
03:05I'm surprised you haven't needed a doctor yet
03:07We don't
03:08I came here personally because I didn't want to alarm my father
03:12It's just a precaution
03:14In case
03:15My mother has low spirits
03:17Really?
03:19We don't have much of that up here
03:22But I'm sure Dr Donaldson will try to help if he can
03:25I'm sorry to disturb you
03:26You do not disturb me
03:29But even you, not remotely interested in industry
03:33Might know that there is talk of a strike
03:35Not just here at Marlborough Mills
03:37But one that will affect the whole of Milton
03:39What would they gain by striking?
03:42They'll be wanting higher wages?
03:45That is what they will say
03:48But the truth is
03:51That there are some men who raise themselves to be masters
03:54While others will always seek to pull them down
03:58That is the way of the world Miss Hale
04:01And there is nothing you or I can do about it
04:23Do you like working here?
04:32Like it
04:32Like what?
04:34It's the same as anywhere
04:36Well, it's better than hamphers
04:37You can only earn partial, isn't I?
04:39I earn five and ten for you
04:41But my dad makes me give in most of it
04:43What would you spend it on?
04:45If you could?
04:47Food
04:47Food
04:47And then more food
04:48I'd pile it up
04:49Great new plates
04:51So
04:52Would you join a strike?
04:54Well, I'm not saying there will be one
04:55Just if there was
05:03Your mother was kindly giving me the name of a doctor
05:06You're ill?
05:07No
05:08No, it's just a precaution
05:15Your mother is always accusing me of knowing nothing about Milton and the people who live here
05:18I doubt she meant you should hang on to the tittle-tattle of young pieces and spinners
05:22They weren't telling me any secrets
05:24There was a man with a surveyor a few weeks ago
05:26It's quite the new thing
05:28We've become practised at telling others their wages and their working conditions
05:31Do you mind that?
05:32If they tell the truth?
05:33Of course not
05:34I don't apologise to anyone about the wages I pay or how I run Marlborough Mills
05:38It's no secret, it's in plain sight for all to see
05:41And what about how they spend their money?
05:44Well, that would be none of my business
05:47My duty is to the efficient running of the mill
05:49If I neglect that, all the workers will cease to have an income
05:51But what about your moral duty?
05:54If she keeps to her hours and does nothing to disrupt the honest and efficient working of the mill
05:58She does in her own time, it's not my concern
06:01Here in the north, we value our independence
06:05But surely you must take an interest
06:08I'm an employer
06:10I'm not a father or a brother that I can command her to do as I please
06:15Sorry to disappoint you, Miss Hale
06:17I would like to play the overbearing master
06:20But I'll answer your questions as honestly as I'm sure you ask them
06:32Enoughly excuse me, our virgin business
06:36And all the time, there she is
06:37Looking down on us like a great black angry crow guarding the nest
06:42As if I would ever consider her son as a suitor
06:45Come on, don't say you haven't thought about it
06:48Mind you, you'd have to get yourself some smarter clothes
06:50You wanted to mix with them at Marlborough Mills
06:51Thank you
06:52I'll have you know these were new last year
06:54You won't stand a chance
06:56There's loads of girls after him
06:57Well, they are welcome to him
06:58With my good wishes
07:00I can say this
07:01If I ever have a son
07:03I'll not hang on to him like she does
07:06Well, I'll never be having children of any sort
07:09So that won't be a problem
07:14Bessie
07:15Is it really so bad?
07:21Fluff on me lungs
07:22Won't go away, however much I cough
07:25At least I won't grow too old and ugly
07:28There is that
07:29And this happened at Marlborough Mills?
07:31No
07:33No
07:35Must have happened when I was little
07:37We didn't know of these things then
07:39We all had to work
07:42When father found out, he moved me straight away to Thornton's
07:46He loves you very much, doesn't he?
07:49Yes
07:52Fathers and daughters
07:55Mothers and sons
07:57So maybe we shouldn't be too hard and all bad likes Thornton
08:01Maybe your mother be just the same as she had a son
08:06She does
08:08Have a son
08:10I have a brother
08:12Well, no, why didn't you ever say so before?
08:14Because we don't talk about him
08:16Come on, I could do with a good story
08:22I cried when Fred left her
08:24So did mother
08:26But he was desperate to go to sea
08:28And father thought it would be the making of him
08:33He left full of hope
08:36But that was before he sailed with the captain
08:39He was a monster
08:41Once they set sail, the captain did whatever he liked
08:45He beat the children to within an inch of their lives
08:47Well, couldn't they do anything?
08:48Well, they tried
08:50Frederick and the others stood up to him
08:52Some of them wanted to kill him
08:54Eventually, they put the captain and a few of his officers in a boat
08:56And let it loose on the open sea
08:59The Navy called it a mutiny
09:02But Frederick really had no choice
09:05He was branded the ringleader and called a traitor
09:14Eventually, the Navy printed a list of the mutineers
09:17And Fred's name was among them
09:21It nearly killed my parents
09:43He was in South America for a few years
09:46Now he lives in Spain
09:47In Cadiz
09:48Spain?
09:50How romantic
09:52Sometimes I think I'll never see him again
09:55But if he could be told how he were put upon
09:58If I defended others against that madman
10:00Surely the law would spare him
10:01Some of the sailors were caught
10:03They pleaded their case
10:05Captain Reed was clearly insane
10:07But they were hanged anyway
10:10No, Frederick's safe in Spain
10:12But if he comes home, he'll be condemned to death, I'm sure
10:19I suppose you can take comfort
10:21That he was so brave
10:23And acted to spare those sailors weaker than himself
10:27Yes, I do
10:29But I confess that sometimes I wish he had been more of a coward
10:32If and that my mother might see him once more
10:54Preparations are ready
10:56If we're going to entertain, we must do it properly
11:01You're not regretting the invitations, are you?
11:04No, no
11:05Spend what you will
11:08Though it may have to be the last dinner party we have for some time
11:15So, who's on the list?
11:18Slickson's, of course
11:20Foster's
11:21Brown's will decline, but we must invite them all soon
11:24Hale's will come, I presume
11:26They are probably aware of the very great advantage it would be to Mr Hale
11:30To be introduced to people
11:31Like the Foster's
11:32I'm sure that motive would not influence them funny
11:35How you seem to understand details, John
11:37Do you really think they're so very different from any other people we meet?
11:41He seems a worthy kind of man
11:43Oh, well, rather too simple for trade
11:47She's a bit of a fine lady
11:49With all her low spirits
11:52As for the daughter
11:54She gives herself heirs
11:55And yet they're not rich and they never have been
11:58And she's not accomplished, Mother
12:00She can't play the piano
12:01Go on, Fanny
12:01What else does she like to bring her up to your standard?
12:04I heard Miss Hale say she could not blame herself, John
12:10If you would let us alone
12:12We might perhaps see a merit and like her
12:15I'm sure I never could
12:34I wish you would try to like Miss Hale, Mother
12:38Why?
12:40You've not formed an attachment to her, have you?
12:44Mind you
12:45She'll never have you
12:48Why, she once laughed in my face at the thought of it
12:50I'm sure she did
12:52She would never have me
12:55She's too good an opinion of herself to take you
12:58I should like to know where she'd find anyone better
13:01You can both believe me then when I say this out of complete indifference to Miss Hale
13:06Mr. Hale is my friend
13:07She's his only daughter
13:08I wish you would both make an effort to befriend her
13:12I only wish I knew what he talked about quite so much
13:15I'm tired of it
13:16What would you like us to talk about?
13:19How about a strike for a more pleasant topic?
13:26Now, now listen
13:28The men up at Amplish have been told not to expect a rise
13:38So what do you reckon?
13:47I thought so
13:49Now is the time
13:50We will all stop our machines at the end of the day Friday 10 minutes before time
13:55And no one
13:56No one will stop them
14:03Well, Gary Slickson decides to offer
14:06Do anything to keep his mill working
14:08At advantage of others
14:10Then you still come out
14:12Remember
14:13If we all refuse to work
14:16We are the strong ones
14:20How long do you think masses will last out
14:22If we're all together
14:23A week
14:24Two weeks at most
14:24Why if they send him for hands from Ireland
14:26Felton would
14:27He died before being detective
14:29I'll take him down if he gives me half a chance
14:36No
14:40No
14:41No
14:41No violence
14:42Masters expect us to behave like animals
14:45We will show them
14:46We are thinking men
14:49We will not be out thought
14:52The only enemy of the strike is ourselves
14:54Now we must manage this strike well
14:57Not like five year ago
14:59When half of us went back to work before the others
15:03Is that understood?
15:06This is it
15:07We keep together
15:10Friday evening it is
15:12Friday evening it is
15:31Are the hands about to turn out?
15:36They are waiting for the moment
15:38I have to turn down their wage demands
15:39Are there many orders in hand?
15:41Of course
15:42I know that well enough
15:46The Americans are flooding the market
15:49Our only chance is producing at a lower price and faster
15:54The faster we fill the orders
15:55The longer it takes for us to be paid for them
15:57How much are we owed?
16:02The debt to the bank is nearly £400
16:07The men are less patient
16:10They have barely made up pay since the last cut
16:13Why don't they listen?
16:15I think that just by putting their ignorant heads together
16:18They will get their way
16:20Don't worry mother
16:21It is a young industry
16:22These problems are lying themselves out
16:27We are not yet in the position of selling up
16:29Can't you get men from Ireland?
16:31Then you can get rid of the strikers
16:33I would
16:35I would teach them that I was master
16:37And could employ who I like
16:38Yes I can
16:40And I will too
16:41At the strike last
16:43It will be trouble and expense
16:46But I will do it rather than give in
16:55If there is to be this extra expense
16:58I'm sorry we're giving the dinner this year
17:01We should go on as before
17:04No more, no less
17:21There now mother
17:22Surely one of these will do for the Thorntons
17:25Excuse me
17:25Ah, and this is Margaret, of course
17:29You know the last time I saw you
17:30You were eight years old
17:31Running round Helston with your brother
17:33Mr Bell
17:35Of course
17:37How do you do?
17:39Well, Hale
17:39I thought then that she would grow into a handsome young woman
17:42But this goddess I never imagined
17:44Come, come, Bell
17:45Margaret will not understand your humour
17:47Oh, no offence, my dear
17:49Of course not
17:51I'm pleased you've come to visit at last
17:53With all this talk of strikes
17:55I thought I'd better check with my banker
17:57Whether I should sell out my property
17:59Surely not
18:01We're not even certain there'll be a strike
18:02Are we, Father?
18:04I don't know
18:04Seems to me the most
18:06I don't see the eye to eye
18:09In my teaching capacity
18:10I meet many a working man
18:12They have some dreadful tales
18:14And speak from the heart
18:16And have arguments for the strike
18:18Which appear to me to be entirely logical
18:21You know they suffered a pay cut
18:22Five years ago
18:24And have never got back to those wages
18:26Although the price of food goes up all the time
18:29But then
18:31Our friend Thornton comes to read
18:34And he
18:36Answers my questions
18:37And puts the other side so eloquently
18:42I truly don't know what to think
18:45I'm sure Mr Thornton does put his own view
18:47Very eloquently
18:51I'm surprised the Thorntons
18:53Are having a dinner
18:53With trouble looming
18:55Oh the Thorntons have an annual dinner
18:57On exactly the same date every year
18:59Time nor tide stops for Mrs Thornton's dinners
19:02She does not turn back for any month
19:04Now that is very true
19:06You know Margaret's also made friends
19:07Amongst the workers
19:08Really
19:10Extraordinary gal
19:19I said no
19:21They were expecting you
19:26There we go
19:29There we go
26:16Ah, Mrs. Thornton.
26:18I hope it is silent enough for you tonight, Mr. Hale.
26:22The men have been gracious enough to turn out for the last month.
26:26So all is quiet for our dinner party.
26:36I'm sorry that your mother is here.
26:38It's nothing serious, I'm sure.
26:39She's just a little tired.
26:45I wonder if she might like to try the water mattress.
26:48What's the very latest thing?
26:50A mattress that fills with water.
26:53Gives great comfort to the back.
26:55Have you been on this, Thornton?
26:57Oh, no.
26:57No, I am very delicate.
27:00I'll send off her the latest inventions, just in case.
27:03Mother doesn't approve.
27:07Ah, Thornton.
27:08Good evening.
27:11Ah, Thornton.
27:21I took the liberty of inviting myself, knowing your mother's hospitality.
27:24I hope you're not worrying about mob mills.
27:27We'll ride out the strike, just as we always have.
27:29I've always had complete faith in you, Thornton,
27:31but obviously in the present situation...
27:32It's nothing I can't handle.
27:34No, of course not.
27:35Thornton knows everything in matters of business.
27:37He has my every confidence.
27:38Thornton?
27:39You know Miss Latimer?
27:46Thornton.
27:48Who's that fine you're a lady?
28:01See, I am learning Milton ways, Mr Thornton.
28:04I'm sorry your mother wasn't able to join us.
28:10Thornton, I must speak with you.
28:15Excuse me.
28:23Have you left word at the barracks?
28:25It's been done.
28:25Men on horseback, armed men...
28:27All those arrangements have been made.
28:29If they find out you are planning to break the strike by bringing in Irish work...
28:33I take this risk for myself.
28:34You need not join in.
28:37I can and will protect myself and anyone that works for me from any kind of violence.
28:41I sincerely hope so.
28:44Well, really, Thornton is most ungallant this evening...
28:46...leaving the most glorious woman in the room to talk to that slimy eel Slixen.
28:51Now then, who can we introduce you to?
28:54Come with me.
29:02I hear Arnold is moving lock, stock and barrel to America.
29:06America?
29:07I'll be damned.
29:08That's what I'd like to do.
29:10Pack up and leave.
29:11You damn strikers have no work at all, then.
29:14Well, they have no work at the moment.
29:16There is work.
29:17They choose not to do it.
29:20Thornton, what do you think?
29:22Oh, I think our Mr Bell is up to his old tricks.
29:25Playing with words at the expense of us simpler fellows.
29:29But it's a serious question.
29:32I don't want a manufacturer in another country, but it's logical for others to try if they cannot make enough
29:36profit here.
29:38What do you think, Miss Hale?
29:40Surely you don't condone the strikers.
29:42Well, no.
29:44Well, and yes, it is surely good to try to see both sides of a question.
29:49Mrs Arthur saw you taking a basket to the Princeton district the other afternoon.
29:57I have a good friend in Princeton.
30:00Her name is Bessie Higgins.
30:01Higgins?
30:03Isn't he one of your union leaders, Ampers?
30:06Yeah.
30:07He's a terrific firebrand.
30:09Dangerous man.
30:10I'm surprised, Miss Hale, that you keep such company.
30:13Bessie is my friend.
30:15Nicholas is a little...
30:16She's on first-name terms.
30:19Mr Higgins has been made a little wild by circumstances.
30:23But he speaks from his heart, I'm sure.
30:26Well, if he's so determined, I'm surprised he'll accept charity.
30:30Well, he doesn't for himself.
30:33The basket was for a man whose six children are starving.
30:36Ah, well, then he knows what to do.
30:39Go back to work.
30:42I believe this poor starving fellow works at Marlborough Mills, doesn't he, Margaret?
30:51You do the man whoever he is more harm than good with your basket.
30:57Logic would say the longer you support the strikers, the more you prolong the strike.
31:03That is not kindness.
31:05They will be defeated, but it will take longer.
31:08Their pain will be prolonged.
31:12But surely to give a dying baby food.
31:15It's not just a question of logic.
31:17Mrs Thornton, I really must congratulate you on these magnificent table settings.
31:25I don't believe I've seen finer table decorations even in the grandest gatherings in Harley Street.
31:32Well, all masters are the same, Mr Bell.
31:35You do us an injustice to always think we're all up to some underhand scheme or other.
31:55Do come in, Maria, and they still be up.
31:59Um...
32:04Margaret?
32:11Who is that, Dixon?
32:13Who?
32:14The man I saw leaving the house.
32:17What man?
32:19Dixon.
32:23It was the doctor.
32:25Dr Donaldson.
32:26Mother?
32:27He was just making his usual visit.
32:29His usual visit?
32:31How long has he been coming here?
32:48Margaret?
32:51Why are you hiding over there?
33:05Oh, you found that?
33:07What's this?
33:09Oh, you found that?
33:22What's this?
33:24She...
33:26She promised she wouldn't.
33:28I made her.
33:30It was Dixon who said that you shouldn't be told.
33:35What does Dixon know?
33:37She's a servant.
33:39I'm your daughter.
33:41Shh.
33:41I don't want your father to hear.
33:45Don't be angry with Dixon.
33:48She loves me.
33:51No.
33:53I'll try not to.
33:57I keep thinking about Helston.
34:01I used to complain about it sometimes and want to leave.
34:07And now I'll never see it again.
34:10That's my punishment.
34:16And Margaret?
34:20I can't stop thinking about Frederick.
34:24I'll never see him again either.
34:28Oh, Margaret, it's so hard.
34:38Shh.
34:41Shh.
34:43Shh.
34:44Shh.
34:44Oh, dear.
34:47Shh.
34:49Shh.
34:50Then, Amis, you would know.
34:53Now you'll fret before you need to.
34:57Likely tell the master too.
34:58Then I'll have the whole house to deal with.
35:00No, I won't tell father.
35:02I can bear it better than him.
35:05So I see.
35:10I've known some time now how well she is.
35:14And though I don't pretend to love her as you do, I've loved her better than anyone else in the
35:20whole world.
35:26I'll never forget the first time I saw her.
35:31The young Miss Beresford.
35:37I broke a needle into my finger. I was so nervous.
35:44And she bound my hand with her own handkerchief.
35:51And then, when she returned from the ball, she remembered to look in on me.
36:04And she changed the handkerchief for another one.
36:13She was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen.
36:19Or seen since.
36:27Now, Miss.
36:28You best get to bed.
36:30You're going to need a clear mind in the morning.
36:39I'm sorry I get close with you, Dixon.
36:43Bless you.
36:44I like a bit of spirit.
36:46When you're all fired up, you remind me of Master Frederick.
36:52That is a welcome sight.
37:16You've been taking us to the factory in the morning, sir.
37:28That's the lot for tonight, Mr. Thorne.
37:30I can't risk bringing any morning before dinner.
37:32Come on, Dixon.
37:33Keep on.
37:33Come on.
37:34Come on.
37:35Come on.
37:36Come on.
37:37Come on.
37:39Come on.
37:39Come on.
37:39Come on.
37:40Come on.
37:40Come on.
37:44Come on.
37:46Come on.
37:46Come on.
38:17Oh, that's you, miss.
38:24Did you see anyone in the street?
38:25No.
38:26That's very odd, isn't it?
38:28Where is everyone?
38:29I think we'll know soon enough.
38:34Best get inside out, miss, and bolt the door behind you.
39:08Mama will be here in a moment, Miss Hale.
39:10She asked me to apologise.
39:11Did I see faces in the mill?
39:13My brother has imported hands from Ireland.
39:16They're huddled up in the top room.
39:18What are they doing there?
39:19They're frightened.
39:21The strikers have frightened them so that they don't dare work and we don't dare let them
39:25out.
39:26Poor wretches.
39:27Mama is seeing to their food and John is trying to calm them down.
39:30Some of the women are wailing and begging to go back home.
39:37Oh, here's Mama.
39:40Excuse me, Mrs Thornton, I'm sorry to bother you at such a time.
39:43My mother finally mentioned you had a water mattress that we might borrow.
39:47Hello?
39:47I'm sorry, I thought.
39:54I'm sorry!
40:02The monster!
40:12They're coming! They're coming!
40:14They're coming! They're coming!
40:17Keep her here at the back of the house, Mother.
40:19How soon can the soldiers be here?
40:23Try to stop her panicking.
40:25Miss Hale!
40:33Miss Hale, I'm sorry you have visited us at this unfortunate moment.
40:46They're in there somewhere!
40:48Come on!
40:50Come on, lads!
40:51Come on, lads!
41:01Get the Irish out!
41:05Oh, my God, they're going for the mill door.
41:09Get the Irish out!
41:12Oh, no. It's Boucher.
41:18Let them yell.
41:20Keep up your courage for a few minutes longer, Miss Hale.
41:22I'm not afraid.
41:23Why can't you pacify them?
41:25The soldiers will make them see reason.
41:27Reason?
41:28What kind of reason?
41:30Mr Thornton, go down this instant and face them like a man.
41:33Speak to them as if they were human beings.
41:35They're driven mad with hunger.
41:36Their children are starving.
41:38They don't know what they're doing.
41:39Go and save your innocent Irishman.
41:48Mr Thornton, take care!
41:52Mr Thornton, take care!
42:03In God's name, stop!
42:05Think of what you're doing!
42:06He is only one man and you are many.
42:09Go home.
42:10The soldiers are coming.
42:11Go in peace.
42:13You shall have an answer to your complaints.
42:14Will you send the Irish out?
42:16Never!
42:22Go inside.
42:23This is not your place.
42:23They will not want to hurt a woman.
42:25Go inside or I will take you.
42:26Get them out!
42:27Get them out!
42:29Get them out!
42:31Get them out!
42:38Get them out!
42:39Are you satisfied?
42:42You came here for me so kill me if that's what you want!
42:47Hooray!
42:51Oh!
42:56Haaaay!
43:01Oh!��agh!
43:05Are you talking?
43:12Is she dead?
43:13No, Miss Fanny. She's breathing, but she looks very bad.
43:16Oh, where is Mother? We need a doctor.
43:18Well, she had to get through rioters. She were only one of us brave enough to go.
43:23Did you see, Miss?
43:25What?
43:26Miss Hale. What happened down below?
43:29Did you not see Miss Hale clinging to the master?
43:32No!
43:34Well, did all the servants see? We had a good enough view from top window.
43:39Well, Ma's sure she set her mind on John. This proves it.
43:43Oh, quick! Jane, fetch some water.
43:47There, there. Miss Hale. You lie quietly.
43:52Mother's gone for the doctor. He will be here soon.
43:56I don't need a doctor. I must go home.
43:59No, you can't. Oh, Mother! Thank goodness you're back. Miss Hale, is she worse?
44:04No, I'm quite well.
44:06I want to go home.
44:15Hmm. It looks worse than it is.
44:20But you've had quite a blow, young lady.
44:24You'd better rest here a while.
44:26No. You know my mother is unwell.
44:29She must not be alarmed.
44:31If she hears of this,
44:33I will go now.
44:35Surely not, doctor.
44:36I think she must be allowed to do as she will.
44:39I'll take her with me in the carriage.
44:41See she reaches home safely.
44:43The streets are still very noisy.
44:46Very well.
45:10Mr. Thornton?
45:24Don't worry, sir. We'll catch the ringleaders.
45:26Thornton's come up smiling again.
45:29Those hoodlums have broken the strike.
45:31Didn't even have to use his Irishman.
45:33That was amazing.
45:49He slept again.
45:52He slept again again again.
45:53helping other her buddies.
45:56That was amazing.
45:58He slept again again again.
45:59Holy protesters.
46:02해요ers salas Centersiranidis
46:06Margaret, is that you?
46:09Yes, Mother.
46:11I'll be in soon.
46:14I must wash. The streets are very dusty today.
46:21Where is Miss Hale?
46:23She has gone home.
46:25Gone home?
46:26That is not possible.
46:28Really, John, she was quite well.
46:31Mother, she took a terrible blow.
46:33What were you thinking of letting her go home?
46:35Everything was done properly.
46:37Dr Donaldson was gone.
46:38In fact, I went for myself,
46:40as no-one else seemed to have a mind to go.
46:44Thank you, Mother.
46:46The streets were dangerous.
46:47I'm sure it's not possible to keep such a headstrong young woman
46:51anywhere she doesn't care to be.
46:53She's such a reckless young woman.
46:56Jane, have you nothing to be getting on with?
46:58Miss Fanny, sir...
46:59I was so scared, John.
47:01Believe me, I almost fainted.
47:03I thought they would break down the door and murder us all.
47:06Oh, Fanny, don't be so ridiculous.
47:08You were in no danger.
47:14Where are you going?
47:17To see if Miss Hale is well.
47:19I sent her home in a carriage with Dr Donaldson.
47:22Everything was done properly.
47:24John!
47:28I'm asking you not to go.
47:29I don't know.
47:35Alright.
47:36I don't know what's happening.
47:38Checking out mystep...
47:39...
47:39...
47:40...
47:42...
47:43...
47:43...
48:00I hear there's been some violence up at Marlborough Mills.
48:06I do hope there's not too much damage.
48:09There's a young lady who wants Miss Margaret.
48:12I told her to go, but she's very distressed.
48:15I said her name's Mary.
48:20I'm sorry, Miss. I didn't know what to do.
48:23Bess has been took so very ill.
48:50I don't know.
49:03I don't know.
49:25You're still up?
49:33I thought you'd be exhausted.
49:35Where should I be?
49:39Where have you been?
49:41Just walking.
49:49Where have you been walking?
49:52I promised you I would not go there, and I did not.
49:56But?
49:58But.
50:03Mother, you know I will have to go there tomorrow, and you know what I will have to say.
50:08Yes.
50:09You could hardly do otherwise.
50:12What do you mean?
50:15I mean that you are bound in honour, since she has shown her feelings for all the world
50:21to see.
50:22Her feelings?
50:22She rushed out in front of an angry mob and saved you from danger.
50:27Or are you telling me I imagine that?
50:30Do you think none of the servants are?
50:33Do you think it's not become the tittle-tattle of Milton?
50:37She did save me.
50:40But Mother, I didn't believe such a woman could care for me.
50:46Don't be so foolish.
50:48And what more proof do you need that she should act in such a shameless way?
51:00I'm sure she will take you from me.
51:04That is why I didn't want you to go to see her today.
51:09I wanted one last evening of being the first in your affections.
51:21I will have to change the initials on our linen.
51:24We will bear her right now.
51:27Her isn't yours.
51:31I know she does not care for me.
51:35I can't remain silent.
51:37I must ask her.
51:39Don't be afraid, Joan.
51:41She has admitted it to the world.
51:46I might even learn to like her for it.
51:51Must have taken a great deal to overcome her pride.
52:35Dear Margaret,
52:37Margaret, if only uncle would bring you all home, you wouldn't need to witness such suffering.
52:43As for feeling guilty, Margaret, surely you can have nothing to reproach yourself for.
52:49After all, the workers chose to go on strike, and I'm sure you've done your best to help.
52:54Even when we were little girls, you always did the right thing.
53:32I don't notice the colour of this fruit.
53:37Miss Hale, I'm afraid I was very ungrateful yesterday.
53:41You've nothing to be grateful for.
53:42I think that I do.
53:44Why, did you don't need the least that anyone would have?
53:49That can't be true.
53:50Well, I was, after all, responsible for placing you in danger.
53:55I would have done the same for any man there.
53:58Any man?
54:01So you approve of that violence? You think I got what I deserved?
54:03Oh, no, of course not.
54:05But they were desperate.
54:07I know, if you were to talk...
54:08I forgot.
54:09You imagined them to be your friends.
54:13But if you were to be reasonable...
54:14Me?
54:15Were you saying that I'm unreasonable?
54:18If you would talk with them, and not set the soldiers on them, I know they would...
54:22They will get what they deserve.
54:30Miss Hale, I didn't just come here to thank you.
54:35I came because...
54:39I think it very likely...
54:41I know I've never found myself in this position before.
54:47It's difficult to find the words.
54:52Miss Hale, my feelings for you are very strong.
54:55Please, stop.
54:58Please, please don't go any further.
55:00Excuse me.
55:02Please don't continue in that way.
55:05It's not the way of a gentleman.
55:11I'm well aware that in your eyes, at least, I'm not a gentleman.
55:15But I think I deserve to know why I am offensive.
55:18It offends me that you should speak to me as if it were your duty to rescue my reputation.
55:22I spoke to you about my feelings because I love you.
55:24I had no thought for your reputation.
55:26You think that because you are rich, and my father is in reduced circumstances,
55:31that you can have me for your possession?
55:33I suppose I should expect no less from someone in trade.
55:35I don't want to possess you.
55:36I wish to marry you because I love you.
55:38You shouldn't, because I do not like you.
55:40And never have.
55:49What minute we talk of the colour of fruit, the next of love, how does that happen?
56:04My friend, Bessie Higgins, she's dying.
56:09And then, of course, it's my fault too.
56:16I'm sorry.
56:17For what?
56:18That you find my feelings for you offensive?
56:21Or that you assume because I'm in trade I'm only capable of thinking in terms of buying and selling?
56:25Or that I take pleasure in sending my employees to an early grave?
56:28No.
56:29No, of course not.
56:32I'm sorry to be so blunt.
56:36I have not learnt how to...
56:38how to refuse.
56:41How to respond when a man talks to me, as you just have.
56:45Well, there are others.
56:48This happens to you every day.
56:51Of course.
56:53You must have to disappoint so many men that offer you their heart.
56:55Please, understand, Mr Thornton.
56:56I do understand.
57:00I do understand.
57:01I understand you completely.
57:02something that you must be lovingly.
57:05I do not have to wait for you, my Lord.
57:15I do not have to wait for you.
57:25I do not have to wait for you, my Lord.
