TVTranscript
00:24The
00:25loss of my father was a leap into the unknown.
00:29Longborn was my childhood home, and although I had my struggles here, it was all I had ever known.
00:37From now on, would I be relying on the hospitality of my sisters?
00:43Destined to spend my days as my mother's companion.
00:48What other choice did I have?
00:54I do not expect any of you to understand my pain.
00:59The bond Mr. Bennett and I shared was a rare thing.
01:04I do not know that I shall ever eat again.
01:10Who is that?
01:12I do not know, Mama.
01:14What sort of person would impinge upon our hour of mourning so distastefully?
01:21Charlotte!
01:24I am afraid you find us in a state of some disarray.
01:29Understandably.
01:30We have been wanting to see you all since we heard the terrible news.
01:34But knew you would need time as a family to-
01:37To gather your things.
01:38Yourselves.
01:39Together.
01:43I want to make it quite clear that there is no rush for you to leave Longborn.
01:55Thank you, Mr. Collins.
01:57You are quite welcome to stay here with us for a full two weeks.
02:01Two weeks?
02:03Mrs. Bennett, there really is no hurry for you and Mary to leave.
02:06But I have arranged you some help with the packing.
02:09So you are not obliged to undertake such a difficult task during your hour of need?
02:15Hmm.
02:17Oh!
02:28Mama, you must come and stay with Mr. Bingley and Knight Netherfield.
02:32We have a number of cooks and more servants than we know what to do with.
02:37Oh, Jane.
02:39I would be delighted.
02:41It would bring me great comfort to be in a sightable property with a large number of staff at my
02:46disposal.
02:49And Mary, you of course must come too.
02:54But if you're worried about company, Caroline Bingley stays with us often.
03:00Well, yes, but I have not yet thought through my future prospects.
03:07Speaking of your prospects, Mary, I have received a letter from my brother and his wife in London.
03:13Their governess has been called back to Norfolk and they have asked me to send you to stay with them
03:18until a suitable replacement is found.
03:21There is going to be a governess.
03:23Oh, Mary.
03:24I would very much like to help, but you will need me, Mama.
03:28I have already accepted their offer.
03:32They're sending a carriage.
03:35But, Mama...
03:36Do not worry about me, Mary.
03:38I shall have Jane by my side.
03:56If my options in life really were marriage or misery, it looked very much as though I was destined for
04:03misery.
04:11Mrs. Bennet is indisposed.
04:15Oh.
04:17Of course.
04:19Thank you, Hill.
04:28Um...
04:29What if the children don't like me?
04:32Why should they not like you?
04:34You're a perfectly likeable soul.
04:39I have nothing ready to teach them.
04:42Mary, nobody knows more facts about anything than you.
04:48It's time for you to get out and see the world.
04:52Meet some other people that live in it.
04:54I think it'll do you good.
04:57Do not be frightened, Miss Mary.
04:59Oh, no, I'm not.
05:00I'm not...
05:01No, I'm just, um...
05:04Do not be frightened.
05:06I'm not.
05:13No, of course.
05:15Oh, no, of course.
05:18Do don't be frightened.
05:27Okay.
05:27Bye.
05:33It's really fun.
06:34Oh! Mary! Welcome!
06:36Mary, you must be hungry after your journey.
06:38Would you like some toasted cheese?
06:40But first, we'll show you your room.
06:41Come in, come in!
06:44It's right at the top of the house,
06:46so you won't be disturbed by the children.
07:07How's your mother?
07:10She's had a most trying time of late.
07:12Well, you all have.
07:15Mother as well.
07:16Thank you for inquiring.
07:19And how are you, Mary?
07:21Mary, it must have been a terrible shock.
07:27No, it was.
07:30Well, thank you for stepping in at such short notice.
07:33We don't stand on ceremony here,
07:35especially with the children,
07:36so if you don't mind that,
07:38you'll do well with us.
07:40And the rest of your belongings
07:41will be brought up any moment.
07:43Do you have all you need?
07:45I do. Thank you.
08:00Which mountain range
08:01has found the end of your armies?
08:05Oh, hi.
08:06The Andes.
08:19Oh, that's good.
08:22Not so good.
08:24Mary, won't you join us for breakfast?
08:26Oh, no, no, no, sir, thank you, sir.
08:28I'm not at all hungry this morning.
08:30I shall see the children upstairs.
08:44Marianne, would you like to start?
08:47Miss Bennet, it's a pleasure to meet you.
08:50I am Marianne Gardner,
08:52and I'm 11 years old.
08:54It's my pleasure to meet you too, Miss Marianne.
08:59George!
09:02Yes, thank you, George.
09:05And this is...
09:10This is Rebecca.
09:12Thank you, Miss Rebecca.
09:15And if an organised body
09:18is not in the situation
09:20and circumstances
09:22best adapted
09:24to its sustenance
09:25and propagation,
09:27then in conceiving
09:29an indefinite variety
09:30among the individuals
09:32of that species,
09:34we must be assured
09:36that on the one hand
09:37those which depart
09:39most from
09:40the best adapted constitution
09:41will be the most liable
09:43to perish.
09:47You've made him go to sleep.
09:55Let us move on to history,
09:57shall we?
09:57Now, in 1492,
10:01Christopher Columbus
10:02discovered America.
10:04Now, where is America?
10:06Ah, yes, America.
10:10Uh...
10:13Where has Rebecca gone?
10:15There were very clearly
10:16three of you in this room
10:17when I began looking at the globe,
10:19and now there are two of you.
10:20She vanished.
10:22She's a magician.
10:24Well, magic is nothing
10:25but illusion and trickery.
10:26Oh.
10:27Now, where could she be?
10:30Oh!
10:30Tom!
10:31You're here!
10:31Tom!
10:32Can we finish lessons now?
10:33Yes.
10:34Oh, forgive the intrusion.
10:36I, er, came to tell you
10:37that dinner is served
10:38and you must be
10:40Miss Bennet.
10:42I...
10:42I must be.
10:44Oh, yes,
10:45I am.
10:46Tom, Hayward.
10:47Oh.
10:48Friend of the family.
10:51Hmm.
10:55Aren't there normally
10:56three of you?
10:57There were
10:57three,
10:58certainly,
10:59but
10:59I was looking at
11:02America,
11:03and when I looked back,
11:04it was...
11:11Do you have mice,
11:12Miss Bennet?
11:13For if you do,
11:14might I suggest
11:15you do not
11:16keep them
11:16in the toy trunk?
11:19Well,
11:20I...
11:20I wasn't sure.
11:22I thought perhaps
11:22mice like
11:24toy trunks.
11:25No, you see,
11:26in there,
11:26they cannot get
11:27to their cheese.
11:28Actually,
11:29it's a fallacy
11:30that mice like cheese.
11:33Of course.
11:34They're much more
11:35partial to root
11:36vegetables and grains.
11:38Yes.
11:38Indeed.
11:39I'm a rabbit.
11:43Mr. Hayward?
11:46Mr. Hayward,
11:48I am keeping
11:49a rabbit
11:50in the toy trunk
11:52because...
11:54I...
11:56because rabbits
11:57are not at all
11:58social creatures.
11:59Exactly.
12:00Yes, they are.
12:05Now,
12:06why exactly
12:07do you have
12:07a new governess?
12:09Is it that
12:10you keep eating them?
12:17Tom helped
12:18Edward with
12:18the legal matter
12:19some years ago
12:20and we've been
12:21friends ever since.
12:22Did you know
12:22they're of our
12:23former lodges?
12:24Oh.
12:25Yes.
12:26Oh.
12:27What is
12:28a revolutionary
12:29Republican?
12:34Well,
12:34as discussed
12:36during the lesson,
12:37they're often
12:38associated with
12:39Jacobinism,
12:40but my point
12:41really was...
12:42Sounds like
12:42you've had a
12:42very interesting
12:43first day,
12:43Miss Bennet.
12:44Well,
12:45have you read
12:46Catherine Macaulay,
12:48Miss Bennet?
12:49Yes,
12:50I have.
12:50Yes.
12:52Mary told us
12:53about smallpox
12:54and I shall
12:55never sleep again.
12:56Well,
12:57you asked me
12:58to be truthful.
12:59What's a deadly rash?
13:01She said
13:01it can leave
13:02one blind
13:02or dead.
13:04That is not
13:05quite how I put it.
13:06Blind or dead,
13:07she said.
13:07Well,
13:07that is true.
13:08There's a mortality
13:09rate of about...
13:10Thirty percent.
13:14Exactly.
13:15George cried
13:18three times.
13:19There was
13:19something in my eye.
13:20We held hands
13:21until Mary
13:22had finished talking.
13:24Well,
13:25you're never too young
13:26to learn about life.
13:28I think a game
13:29is in order,
13:29don't you?
13:30I think that's
13:31a very good idea.
13:32Yes!
13:33Yes!
13:33I'm first!
13:34But what should we play?
13:36Gracie!
13:38Let's show Mary
13:39how to play
13:39graces.
13:40Yes!
13:42Marianne?
13:43Well called,
13:44Marianne.
13:45Well done.
13:45Bravo!
13:47You're Rebecca.
13:48Woo!
13:49Oh!
13:50Oh!
13:51That counts.
13:52It does indeed.
13:53It does indeed.
13:55Oh!
13:57You'll need to get
13:58someone to look at that.
13:59Send it to Blythe,
14:00she'll fix it for you.
14:02Ready?
14:03Yay!
14:04Well, Marianne.
14:05Yes!
14:05Yes!
14:06Well done!
14:07Flare play.
14:08You look like a wizard.
14:10Yes.
14:17Are you sure
14:17you won't join in, Mary?
14:19Oh,
14:20no.
14:20I'm not good at games.
14:22Oh,
14:22that doesn't matter at all.
14:25Yes.
14:27Well,
14:28you couldn't possibly
14:28be as ungainly
14:29as I am.
14:30Really,
14:31I'd only spoil it.
14:38George.
14:39Ready?
14:42Oh!
14:43Oh!
14:49Yes, Tom?
14:50Mr. Gunn.
14:52Oh!
14:52Oh!
14:54Oh!
14:54Oh!
14:55Oh!
14:56Oh!
14:59Oh!
15:11Yes?
15:13Mary?
15:16Oh,
15:17do not look so grave,
15:18my dear.
15:18You're not in trouble.
15:20With the weather
15:21getting warmer,
15:22we're about to become
15:23more sociable.
15:23Oh!
15:24Oh,
15:24please,
15:25do not feel any
15:25obligation to involve me.
15:26I shall be quite content
15:27to stay upstairs
15:28with the children.
15:29Mary,
15:30we want you to join us.
15:33But I do not
15:34sparkle
15:34at dinners.
15:37In our house,
15:38no one is obliged
15:39to sparkle.
15:41Then,
15:43of course.
15:45But,
15:45we need to get you
15:46properly dressed.
15:47Oh.
15:47I thought perhaps
15:48tomorrow we could
15:49go to the haberdashers
15:50and you could
15:50pick out some fabrics.
15:51I do not really
15:53care for dresses.
15:54Well,
15:55that's a shame,
15:55but very well.
15:59Perhaps think about it,
16:00Mary.
16:01There is a dress allowance
16:02as part of your
16:03governess wages.
16:05I have thought about it
16:07and I would very much
16:08like to accept
16:09your kind offer.
16:11That's excellent news.
16:14Well,
16:15good night,
16:15Mary,
16:16and thank you
16:17for today.
16:26This must be
16:27such a change
16:27for Meredith.
16:29It most
16:30certainly is.
16:37What do you think
16:42of the deep greens?
16:44We have a soiree
16:45coming up.
16:46I think
16:46deep green
16:48would be perfect.
16:50Mother has always
16:50said it's terribly
16:51difficult to get
16:52any colour to work
16:52with my complexion.
16:54Really?
16:55Well,
16:56perhaps your
16:56complexions change
16:57because I can see
16:57many colours here
16:58which would work
16:59well on you,
17:00but the most
17:00important thing being
17:02is that you
17:03choose fabrics
17:03that you truly
17:04like.
17:07But,
17:07Mother says
17:08that Mother
17:09isn't here.
17:13Mrs. Gardiner?
17:14Oh.
17:15Miss Bennett.
17:16Tom!
17:17Mr. Hayward,
17:18have you brought
17:19your jacket
17:20to be mended?
17:21I have just this
17:21minute dropped it
17:22off.
17:22Well,
17:22now that you're here,
17:23you can make
17:24yourself useful.
17:25Miss Bennett
17:27needs to choose
17:28some dress fabric.
17:29I find myself
17:30quite overwhelmed
17:30by the choice.
17:32Well,
17:32I shall be honest
17:33and say that my
17:34experience of picking
17:35dress fabric is
17:35limited,
17:36to say the least.
17:38But I shall try.
17:41Have you seen the
17:42names of these colours?
17:44We've got
17:45Dust of Ruins,
17:48Corbeau,
17:49or Flamme de Bonche,
17:50anyone?
17:52I think I shall
17:53take the Drake's neck
17:54with a splash of
17:55Nunkey.
17:56Anyone for
17:58Gabouge?
17:58Well,
17:59I mean,
17:59that's just yellow,
18:00that one.
18:01Yes.
18:02Yes.
18:05I think my advice
18:06would be to choose
18:07the colours that
18:07make one feel
18:08most like oneself.
18:10And I am sorry
18:11not to be of more
18:12use.
18:13I should return
18:13to my desk
18:14and a particularly
18:15unexciting land
18:16negotiation.
18:19Good day.
18:21Good day.
18:26Oh,
18:27poor Tom.
18:28You work so hard.
18:29Really?
18:30Underneath that
18:31light-hearted manor
18:32carries the weight
18:33of the world
18:34on his shoulders.
18:36Now,
18:38have you decided?
18:41I have chosen.
18:43Very well, Mary.
18:47The first
18:48is this crimson
18:49and then I thought
18:51perhaps a spring
18:52green trim.
18:54Lovely.
18:55Yes.
18:56But you will need
18:56two dresses.
18:57So perhaps
19:00china blue?
19:02Hmm.
19:05Do you think
19:06a dress in the
19:07spring green alone
19:08would be garish?
19:10What do you think,
19:12Mary?
19:14Some people may
19:14think it is wild,
19:16but
19:18I like it.
19:20Then I think
19:21you should please
19:21yourself and not
19:22worry what others
19:23may think.
19:25You've done a very
19:25good job.
19:27Now.
19:32Time to
19:33you'll
19:33come here.
19:55Oh!
19:56Ah!
19:56Oh!
19:57Huh?
19:57Uh!
19:58Oh, my gosh!
20:01The gardeners are out. They're buying shoes for the children.
20:05Oh.
20:06Would you like to play graces?
20:11Well, um, yes. Thank you.
20:19Ready? Yes.
20:24Oh! Oh!
20:28I did it.
20:30You did! Natural!
20:32Beginner's luck.
20:34Right, um...
20:36Ready?
20:37Uh, um...
20:40One moment.
20:41Oh.
21:13Oh!
21:14Oh!
21:21Oh!
21:25Oh, come on!
21:27Oh, come on!
21:27Oh!
21:28Oh, erm...
21:29Er...
21:30Er...
21:30Er...
21:31That's...
21:32That's probably enough...
21:34Enough, yes.
21:35...graces for today.
21:36Oh, yes, er...
21:39I brought a book for Mrs Byron.
21:41Oh, of course, yes.
21:43Er...
21:43Ah, poetry.
21:45Do you like poetry, Miss Bennet?
21:47I prefer facts to whimsy.
21:52Whimsy?
21:53I've tried, er...
21:55Well, Cowper...
21:56Er...
21:57Byron.
21:57Even some Dryden.
21:59But, erm...
22:00Well, it seems to me that it's all just...
22:03Words.
22:05What were you expecting?
22:08Are you, er...
22:09Scholar?
22:10Sir?
22:10Er, no.
22:12I'm a barrister.
22:13Junior.
22:14And though the law is my business, poetry is my passion.
22:19What do you like to read?
22:22Er...
22:22Works of non-fiction.
22:23Um...
22:24Histories and, er...
22:26And geology.
22:27And what do you like to read for pleasure?
22:31That is reading for pleasure.
22:34There is nothing you like about poetry.
22:41Just some poems are mercifully short.
22:46Well, now that you have thrown down the gauntlet, I will not rest until you have appreciated the merit of
22:53poetry.
22:56I believe that this is the book that will open the heart of Miss Mary Bennet.
23:06Yes.
23:09The garden is at home.
23:10Oh, is it?
23:11Er, yes.
23:12Yes.
23:13Er, well...
23:14Er, I have a...
23:16I have a coat on.
23:17I have a coat on.
23:17Oh, Tom!
23:42And we'll need more scallops.
23:44Mrs. Shonnelly will claim she couldn't possibly before helping herself to seven.
23:49It must be very strange without your family here.
23:54There was always at least one argument about stolen perfume.
24:02Mary, you look lovely.
24:06I'm not sure.
24:10I think we should let your hair fall naturally.
24:13No point trying to force it into curls if it doesn't want to go.
24:20Here.
24:21Here.
24:21Here.

28:25I did not know what tomorrow would bring, but for now, at least I had someone to dance with.
29:23I did not know what tomorrow would bring.
29:35If London was to be a new start for me, I would push all sorts of poetry and love aside.
29:47Mother warned me of the dirt, disease and despair that could be found here.
29:53She failed to mention the breadth of humanity.
29:59And the anonymity of the city suited me well.
30:02I had taken to walking the city's beautiful parks.
30:07It seemed that all life was in London, and here I could be anything I wanted.
30:21Surely I would find something I could succeed at in this vast, inspiring city.
30:29Oh, where did I put it?
30:31How should I know?
30:32Oh, she breaks my heart a little.
30:34She seems so awkward in herself.
30:37I worry my sister's caused some harm to poor Mary.
30:40Oh, I wonder.
30:42She's perhaps not the most natural motherness.
30:45But what else could she do with life?
30:47Be her mother's companion?
30:48I thought Tom brought her out of herself.
30:51Kind-hearted man that he is.
30:52And she seemed to get on well with Anne Baxter the other evening.
30:56But she has so little confidence.
30:58Yes.
30:59It can't have been easy growing up in the shadow of her sisters.
31:03Found it.
31:04Ah, there it is.
31:05Well, I'm happy she's with us.
31:07She has an interesting and memorable mind.
31:14Oh, it's Bennet.
31:16Mr Haywood.
31:19How are you?
31:20Eager to hear how you've been getting on with the poetry?
31:23Oh, well, er...
31:25I'm not sure I have the mind to appreciate it completely.
31:27I keep hoping Mr Coleridge will explain himself or that Mr Wordsworth will say what he really means.
31:33But they seem to enjoy keeping their secrets.
31:38Well, do not blame yourself.
31:39I think some poets enjoy being difficult to understand.
31:52Miss Bennet, I was so sorry to hear about your father.
31:56Moving to the city without your family.
31:59You not having your mother to confide in or your sisters.
32:02Oh, it's a relief to be without her.
32:04In fact, it's something of a relief to be without any of them.
32:12I'm sorry you're not feeling yourself.
32:17I'm afraid I'm not.
32:19I'm just not finding my place here as easily as I thought.
32:23Sorry, please excuse me.
32:24Oh, Mary!
32:26Tom, how lovely to see you!
32:28Quietly, my dear.
32:29You'll summon the children who I fear have begun to associate Tom's name with a worryingly large bag of sugar
32:34plums.
32:35Please, please excuse me.
32:36Sorry, I'm sorry.
32:38Bye.
33:00My dear Mary, I fear your correspondence has not been reaching me.
33:05I have heard nothing from you at all.
33:11How are you managing your duties?
33:13You never were good with children, even when you were one yourself.
33:19I may require you to return to Pemberley, where I will be spending the summer.
33:27Lizzie has expressed a wish to see you, but more urgently, my new puppy has a nervous air
33:33and requires near-constant companionship.
33:40I had come to London to see the world outside of my family,
33:44and that is what I would do.
33:52Oh, Mary, you're painting!
33:55To teach the children.
33:56Oh, how marvellous to see your imagination at play.
34:03It's terrible.
34:05No, no, it's...
34:07It's very neat.
34:10Did you see the letter from your mother?
34:13Is she well?
34:15Between several complaints about the damp, the unseasonable pollen,
34:19and an unpleasant exchange with a rude shopkeeper.
34:22I understand that she is.
34:24Yes.
34:24I honestly think she enjoys such encounters.
34:27It makes her feel more alive.
34:30Oh, now, speaking of encounters, I think this might be of interest to you.
34:36Tom made a strange request to Mr. Gardiner and I,
34:39and extended the invitation to you too, Mary.
34:42Oh?
34:42Yes, he was most mysterious.
34:45He wants us to meet him tomorrow morning,
34:48where he says he plans to break through our rational reserve
34:52and move our hearts as well as our heads.
34:55He does?
34:56Yes, whatever that might entail.
35:00I must work on my lesson plans.
35:02Oh, Mary, you must join us.
35:04For my sake?
35:06Please consider it.
35:42Please consider it.
36:04Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner, Miss Bennet, thank you for humoring me.
36:09Are we allowed to know the purpose of our visit?
36:12I have conspired with the City of London
36:14and William Wordsworth himself
36:16for a morning recital unlike any other
36:18in a hidden garden.
36:20Good Lord.
36:21Will Miss Baxter be joining us?
36:22I'm afraid Miss Baxter has a variety of excuses
36:25that she skillfully deploys to avoid such events.
36:28Well, remind me to ask her what they are.
36:31Yes, I am afraid that my petitions for good weather
36:34have been in vain.
36:35No matter.
36:36We will not be dissuaded by a little drizzle.
36:40A little drizzle?
36:45Just down there.
36:52This way?
36:53Yes.
37:10That's magical.
37:13Wow.
37:19Please forgive the theatrics.
37:22I had given Miss Bennet the impossible task
37:24of understanding poetry without any real sense
37:28of how to feel it.
37:31Sometimes with poetry
37:34the more I think
37:36the less I understand.
37:45Earth
37:46has not anything to show
37:48more fair.
37:51Dull would he be of soul
37:52who could pass by
37:54a sight so touching
37:56in its majesty.
37:58This city
38:00now
38:00doth
38:01like a garment
38:03wear the beauty of the morning.

46:45you've barely given it a chance
46:48things change
46:50people
46:53situations
46:56over time
47:01may I venture something on that subject
47:06the other day
47:08I went to buy a bonnet
47:10and in the first shop I went into
47:13found a stunning bonnet
47:14an elegant blue
47:16quite lovely on me if I dare say such a thing
47:19when I went to purchase it
47:23it had been reserved for someone else
47:27I went into another shop
47:29and found not four other bonnets
47:32I like just as much
47:33and in the end
47:36one a shade of dusky pink
47:39that suited me even more
47:44do you see what I'm saying
47:49blue is not your colour
47:52no I'm saying that London has such a variety of choices
47:55and such quantity too
47:57you may enjoy the first thing you see well enough
48:01but often
48:03something more exciting will come along
48:07anyway I just thought I'd let you know
48:10well um yes thank you for that
48:12it was very
48:15interesting
48:15oh I was meaning to tell you

49:04sorry

49:11oh
49:36Sorry, I didn't realise there was a line.
49:38No, please.
49:39I wish more people had such a restrained relationship to Punch.
49:44May I?
49:45Yes, of course.
49:47Noble defender of the Punch.
49:49I surrender my post.
49:53And what brings you here?
49:55The word games or the company?
49:57I like words.
49:59I'm not much for games.
50:01Ah, and it is the company you've come for.
50:04Miss?
50:05Bennet. Mary Bennet.
50:08William Ryder.
50:10And where have you come from, Miss Bennet?
50:12Surely I would have remembered seeing you near Punchbowls across London.
50:16I am...
50:18new in town.
50:21Well, I for one am always pleased to see a new face.
50:25Huh.
50:28Now, please gather.
50:29Take your seats.
50:30I see the riddles are about to commence.
50:33We are wise to begin with full glasses.
50:42And now, the quickfire round.
50:46Two words, one answer.
50:49Counterfeit agony.
50:50Counterfeit agony.
50:52A mean trick?
50:54My brain is in agony.
50:55It isn't counterfeit.
50:56It is quite real.
50:57Champagne.
50:58Right.
50:59Champagne.
51:01Champagne!
51:01Why, right, Miss Clark.
51:03Another point to you and our new leader.
51:07Fancy delivering a champagne in word, not in glass.
51:10Tease us, Mr. Gardiner.
51:12All right then, Mr. Ryder.
51:13Here's one for you.
51:16Judy's Fellow.
51:18Oh.
51:21My God, I know it.
51:24Punch!
51:25Oh, well done, Miss Clark Ryder.
51:27Finally, you've arrived on the scoreboard.
51:34My first's a word, comedians dread to hear.
51:39My next new life in a revolving year.
51:43I'll repeat it.
51:45My first's a word, comedians dread to hear.
51:48My next new life in a revolving year.
51:52Offspring.
51:52Yes!
51:53Oh, well done, Miss Barry.
51:56Barry.
51:57Well done.
51:58Bravo.
51:59Yes, Miss Bennet.
52:01Cheers to you.
52:03What's next?
52:04Mandarin.
52:05Delicious.
52:06Miss Bennet.
52:07How lovely to see you.
52:08Too, Miss Bexter.
52:09Mr. Hayward.
52:11We're so pleased you made it.
52:12I had false intelligence.
52:14You were busy this evening.
52:15Well, we somehow managed to persuade Mr. Hayward away from his work.
52:19I have an important case.
52:21Oh, he has the travel fortune of being the only lawyer in London who exclusively gets important cases.
52:28Do excuse us, Mrs. Jean.
52:30Excuse me.
52:32Miss Bennet.
52:34Tom.
52:35Will.
52:37Mr. Ryder and I studied law together.
52:39Ah.
52:39Yes.
52:40Mr. Hayward is responsible for my untimely retirement in the field.
52:44Is that so, Mr. Ryder?
52:45Well, he fed me so many poems, I believe myself a deep, romantic soul.
52:50Too sensitive for the rigors of law.
52:51This seems a heavy charge to lay solely at the feet of poetry.
52:57Mary, how is the night of games going?
52:59Do we have any hope for making a late charge for the prize?
53:02Not unless you wish to bribe our host.
53:04Miss Bennet here is putting us all to shame.
53:06Oh, nonsense, Miss Ryder.
53:07You beat me to the punch.
53:09You see?
53:10Masterful with words.
53:15Please gather yourselves for the penultimate round.
53:19Mr. Ryder.
53:19What?
53:21I'm glad to see you're in better spirits, Miss Bennet.
53:26This evening has been something of a tonic, Mr. Hayward.
53:32Round three.
53:34Ready?
53:36Sunday.
53:37Yes.
53:37Appointed Miss Master.
53:42Dink, Char.
53:43Is it Doldroos?
53:44Oh, God.
53:45No, no, no.
53:45Forget I said anything.
53:47Mercury.
53:48Yes.
53:48Well done.
53:50Is it really?
53:51Well done.
53:52How remarkable.
53:56Come on.
53:57Anybody?
53:58Lighthouse.
53:59Yes.
54:00I've barely had a chance to think, let alone speak.
54:02I've never known a lack of thinking to prevent you from speaking.
54:06That is five points apiece for Miss Clark and Miss Bennet.
54:19The final round.
54:21The two players with the most points go head to head to head to crack one final riddle and
54:26decide the winner.
54:27The leaders come as no surprise, Miss Clark and Miss Bennet.
54:33You mean I didn't make it.
54:35Well, I'm astonished at that.
54:37Mrs. Gardiner, would you do the odds?
54:41To suffer my seconds, the doom of my first.
54:45And of all of my seconds, my whole is the worst.
55:03Heartache!
55:05Yes!
55:06Good Lord!
55:08She's Britain's finest mind!
55:14We declare we have a winner, London's newest arrival, but its fiercest competitor, Miss
55:21Mary Bennet.
55:22Hooray!
55:24Hooray!
55:25Hooray!
55:25Hooray!
55:27Hooray!
55:28I'm very glad that we arrived in time to see you crown, Miss Bennet.
55:34I wanted to say...
55:36Miss Bennet!
55:37I felt you are a liar.
55:39Am I?
55:40You told me you were not much for games.
55:43Well, I...
55:44I can't catch.
55:46I can't.
55:47Miss Bennet, I've been meaning to invite you to tea since I hear very sadly you are leaving
55:52London.
55:52Miss Bennet, surely not?
55:54You can't deprive the game players of London your... your riddling talents!
55:59Round of applause for our winner, Miss Bennet!
56:03Well done!
56:04Bravo!
56:06Bravo!
56:07Bravo!
56:08In that moment, I think I understood what my aunt was telling me, with the convoluted
56:14story about the bonnets.
56:18that quantity has a quality all of its own.
56:24Thanks.
56:28Thank you so much.
56:30I never doubted you.
56:31Well done!
56:32This way.
56:34Thank you for coming.
56:35Mr. Gardner, please.
56:37I have a wonderful...
56:38Mary!
56:39How you shone!
56:41You even caught the attention of the most eligible bachelor in town!
56:45I...
56:45I've been thinking...
56:46Um...
56:47It seems a shame to leave London before I've, you know, given it a fair chance.
56:52I think I might like to stay a little while, if it's not too much burden.
56:56It's not a burden to us at all.
56:59We're delighted to have you with us.
57:04Oh, thank you so much for coming.
57:06Living in London was helping me to see that there could be more to life than just marriage
57:10or misery.
57:12Perhaps my aunt was right.
57:15Even the most hopeless of situations, the most hopeless of people, can, with kindness,
57:24change.
57:25Little by little.
57:27Over time.
57:30I was excited to discover who Mary Bennet might be.
57:36II
57:36I apologize.
57:38I resonate issues.
57:39Yeah, you have.
57:57A Union time!
57:57In the third place.
58:03I stay the same risk today.
58:04I will only release undone.
58:04You
