00:45How to define a foresight?
00:51By the secrets we keep, shall you know us?
00:55By the little lies we tell?
01:01By the choices we make, which echo down the generations.
01:07Choices which will come back to haunt us.
01:11Until one of us decides to change the story.
01:24Believe me, this will pass.
01:26And we'll come through it stronger and more devoted than ever.
01:31I believe you.
01:43My concern is this.
01:45Now he knows about the children.
01:48Will he be able to forget them again?
01:54Trust.
02:02You need fresh air.
02:06Wish I could take it to the seaside.
02:09I know where I like to go.
02:13To a magic place.
02:15Where all the streets are made of water.
02:18Where the poor servant girl met the prince.
02:32So, at the next board meeting, I propose to introduce the subject of my nephew's unfitness to be chair.
02:43Not just in temperament, but in behaviour.
02:48As in?
02:49Any action that might bring the firm into disrepute.
02:52This being the case, not only can he be said not to be chair material,
02:58he should be expelled from the company altogether.
03:06You're not the first to sow wild oats in your youth.
03:13But there's no need to pay for those mistakes with your career.
03:16They're not mistakes, Dad.
03:18They're my actual flesh and blood.
03:20And that's important.
03:22An heir is important.
03:24Something you currently lack.
03:26But for the present, when your succession is about to be challenged,
03:30oh, I am well aware of James' manoeuvrings.
03:36It is imperative that we keep this matter a secret.
03:42Your father and I have been wondering,
03:45is there a case for offering some inducement?
03:49Inducement for the young lady in question.
03:52To ensure her silence?
03:54Her silence is not in doubt.
03:56But if she could be persuaded to leave London...
03:59What?
04:00Set up home and business elsewhere...
04:02Suitably funded, of course.
04:03So she's expected to uproot her life and that of her children, for my convenience.
04:07When she's made it abundantly clear she wants no further contact.
04:10And you trust her?
04:11Completely.
04:15You are not proposing some kind of public statement?
04:18About the children?
04:20Well, how would that benefit any of us?
04:23No, I intend to honour her wishes.
04:25Whilst deciding how to discharge my financial obligation to her.
04:28Which will be my...
04:30Decision.
04:32No one else's.
04:39Are we sure he's the father?
04:42Why else would he be at a shop?
04:44And it was that business in Italy with the ladies' maid.
04:47And there we have it.
04:50The thing to tip the scales against him.
04:53But let's keep this to ourselves for now.
04:58Do I think I'd be the better chair?
05:00Of course.
05:02Do I need to stoop to scheming to achieve it?
05:05You can leave all that to me.
05:23I've got another note from Mr. Foresight.
05:25Ahem.
05:41Mmm.
05:44Ahem.
05:50Ahem.
06:16So, if you loved her,
06:20why did you marry my mom?
06:25Because your mother was, is,
06:29an incredible woman,
06:32cultured, caring, kind,
06:34and I valued that.
06:39In those early days after Venice,
06:41I was sometimes a little lost.
06:45And, had you known about her situation,
06:52what would you have done?
06:57I can't answer that.
07:02You just did.
07:05June, wait.
07:27Give her time.
07:32I don't underestimate the pain this has caused.
07:36But, I am here.
07:39And, I have no plans to be elsewhere.
07:48Then, all shall be well.
08:12You came.
08:14Did you doubt it?
08:22Forgive me.
08:24Yesterday, I was overwhelmed.
08:26I failed to observe the proper formalities.
08:29Allow me to make amends.
08:36Miss Heron, you have made me the happiest of men.
08:40Would you give me the honor
08:42of wearing this ring?
08:54You disliked her?
08:55No, no.
08:55How could I?
08:56It's just...
08:58I mean,
09:00is this happening to me?
09:02There must be so many more suitable women
09:04of your own station.
09:05Very many.
09:07Eminently suitable.
09:08All art and polish and impeccable breeding.
09:17Whereas you
09:18are all nature.
09:23And to me, that is perfection.
09:29Perfection.
09:32Perfection.
09:39May I now have the honor
09:41of introducing you to my family.
09:46My love.
09:49Yes.
09:50Yes.
09:51Yes.
09:52Thank you, my grace.
10:53How I wear, I need to cut quite the dash when I strut into the ring with Lady Peaches.
11:00Isn't that the groom's job?
11:01When one's nurtured a nag as I have, one feels a bond, a connection.
11:06You don't think of Mountingale yourself, then?
11:08Do you know the thought had occurred?
11:09But the 2.30 Depsom, is that the place to make one's debut?
11:12I thought I'd wear my peach hat in homage to Monty's horse.
11:16But if it doesn't win...
11:18Well, I believe by the end of tomorrow we'll have something to celebrate.
11:21To that end, I'll be bringing a guest.
11:23Anyone we know.
11:25Wouldn't wish to spoil the surprise.
11:27Well, hardly a surprise.
11:29Beginning on Miss Carteret?
11:31If you've a guinea to waste.
11:38It's always a blow to realize that someone you love is not perfect.
11:44Of course you want him to be.
11:48But...
11:50He's fallen short.
11:52And I can't forgive him.
11:54Parents disappoint their children.
11:56Children disappoint their parents.
12:00Mine have a talent for it.
12:04Even now, I suspect that your Uncle James is harnessing your father's imperfections to use against him.
12:11And you may say, quite right.
12:14Whereas I would say...
12:17Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
12:23Chin up, my dear.
12:26Tomorrow's race should cheer your spirits.
12:37Yes, Peaches.
12:38You're doing it.
12:39Come on, Peaches.
12:39Hold it.
12:41Go, Peaches.
12:42Come on, lady, Peaches.
12:44Come on, lady, Peaches.
12:47Stand up.
12:49Go on.
12:50Yes, go on.
12:51Yes.
12:53Go.
12:54Go.
12:57Peaches.
13:21No!
13:22No!
13:23No!
13:23No!
13:24No!
13:25So close.
13:26So close.
13:28You donkey!
13:32Damn it!
13:34I've been sold a pup,
13:35a turkey,
13:37a clunker,
13:38a veritable dud!
13:39But she did so well, Monty.
13:41She almost won.
13:46They need to fix that.
13:50How's Alicia?
13:52If we value your life,
13:53never ask if she's feeling tired.
13:55I would like a chair.
13:57Oh, no, she already made that clear.
13:59I'm with child, Joe.
14:00I'm not an invalid or an imbecile.
14:07How are things with Francis?
14:08She seemed like connections with Louisa have consequences.
14:12Neither of us reckoned with.
14:14And the implications are frankly severe.
14:26So does Soames propose to join us?
14:29Or is he keeping his intended under lock and key?
14:32Oh, Miss Carford.
14:34I would have been proud to think we'd achieve nobility in three generations.
14:45Just to alert you.
14:47I haven't purchased any of our plans with the families.
14:50Forgive me if I'm deliberately vague.
14:51Of course.
14:53Oh.
14:58Miss Herron, Mrs. Herron.
15:00My family.
15:03How do you do?
15:07Forgive me, I feel we're a formidable prospect.
15:09Not at all.
15:10I'm delighted to make the acquaintance of such a distinguished family.
15:15Hmm.
15:16And there'll be ample opportunity for deepening that acquaintance.
15:20As Miss Herron has done me the honour of agreeing to be my wife.
15:26Oh.
15:29Oh.
15:31Oh.
15:36Congratulations.
15:40Our wedding will shortly take place by special licence, after which we depart for Europe.
15:45On your honeymoon?
15:46How thrilling.
15:47Where will you go?
15:49Tradition dictates that must remain a secret.
15:53Herron, you say.
15:55Do we know that name?
15:58Who are your people, my dear?
16:01No one of consequence.
16:03My father was a professor, and my mother...
16:04Oh, can we please not subject Miss Herron to the Spanish Inquisition?
16:07No, no, no, indeed.
16:09That function belongs to me.
16:14The customary formalities?
16:17Yes, of course.
16:21Yes.
16:25Shall we?
16:34I thought it best to get the ordeal out of the way as soon as possible.
16:38As to the wedding itself, you must say for a fortnight from now is too soon.
16:41A fortnight?
16:43Well, surely the sooner we arrive in Paris.
16:57Well, surely the sooner we arrive in Paris.
17:11Yes.
17:12Yes.
17:18Yes.
17:19Yes.
17:20Your mother is seriously displeased.
17:25Why wasn't she consulted?
17:27And the haste.
17:29How long have you known this girl?
17:31Long enough.
17:32She seems rather lovely.
17:34Oh, Emily.
17:36She is.
17:38You'll like her.
17:39You must be fearfully in love.
17:42In love?
17:43The deuce does that mean?
17:45It means everything, trust me.
17:49This is not the match we were expecting.
17:52No, I see that.
17:53And to take the plunge now, when Joe's dug himself a hole, we've had a clear shot of the chairmanship
17:59and you're about to go gallivanting off around the continent.
18:03Perhaps we should just leave Joe to it.
18:06Are you serious?
18:18The insanity of it.
18:22I think I rather envy him.
18:25How?
18:27Daring to follow his heart.
18:30Did you?
18:33Did I?
18:34For God's sake, Emily.
18:38What sort of a question is that?
18:44Come along, pudding.
18:46Shall we retire?
18:56Well, that was sheer purgatory.
19:02Absolute hell.
19:05Grinning like fools as if our whole lives were not on the rack.
19:15I know what makes this even worse.
19:18We always wanted children of our own.
19:25Yes.
19:30Somehow that never happened.
19:35Now to know that you have children with another.
19:44The last thing I ever wanted was to cause you pain.
19:54We must protect June as much as we can from all this.
19:58I know that you are going to do so.
19:59Sam, getting closer to me.
20:02I know that you are we gonna have those.
20:18The most important thing about you is.
20:19However, some people are not on the back.
20:23What are you doing?
20:23What are you doing?
20:31you're not wearing that are you i mean the foresight ladies will never approve
20:37is it not sufficiently modish my concern is that you don't embarrass yourself you're stepping so
20:45far outside your milieu i thank you for your concern but i can only start as i mean to go
20:50on
20:51by doing what feels right
20:57to me
21:07so i was thinking crimson or burgundy my husband says don't be extravagant which is rich coming from him
21:15when he outspends his allowance every month and then blames me because he has no profession
21:20it's hardly my fault my father and uncle won't give him a role in the company they sort of haven't
21:24hinted at it countless times they just keep saying we have a reputation to uphold at foresight and co
21:31foresight but your name's darty yes by marriage foresight by birth you know my cousin-in-law
21:37mrs francis foresight
21:40yes yes
21:43i uh i should perhaps warn you i'm snowed under with orders it could be months before your gown is
21:50ready
21:50in which case i'd quite understand if you wish to go elsewhere
21:54elsewhere elsewhere i should think not and her tone almost as if she was wishing me gone
22:01and why would that be thank your cousin joe what and his not so gilded youthful escapades
22:17i congratulate you cousin miss heron seems an excellent choice thank you
22:24perhaps one's reached an age where one is free to make a choice without succumbing to family pressures
22:33one lives in hope
22:40joe father the dressmaker's children well well well the dirty dog how appalling but it does play into our
22:51hands how so you wouldn't be the first to father children out of wedlock for our purposes it serves
22:57us to portray him as a libertine the callous seducer the neglectful father i mean any of these could
23:03be said to jeopardize the reputation of the firm but it happened before he and francis met
23:08some might call it a youthful indiscretion well they'd be wrong such behavior yes monty what is it
23:19am i looking in my club
23:25does he perform any useful function he could given a chance if this is yet another bid to give him
23:33a
23:33role not a role a seat on the board you are joking the board meets tomorrow yes
23:41and your plan is to expel joe from the company do you have a majority are you sure you couldn't
23:47use an
23:48extra vote well monty's your man he's entirely without scruples he'll vote whichever way you tell him to
24:02excuse me ladies and gentlemen please take your seats and welcome esteemed lecturer and philanthropist
24:09mrs ellen parker barrington you believe you have no voice i believe the same
24:17question i've been confused ignored disrespected in my time oh but trust me i'm under no illusion it is my
24:29wealth my standing which now confers power commands respect demands attention my late husband owned woolen
24:40mills in the north once viewed his workers as commodities expendable but he was brought to see them
24:50as precious human souls worthy of respect of dignity of proper recompense
25:01so change is possible and i owe those who have not been as fortunate as i to challenge
25:14ignorance and injustice wherever i see it
25:22i invite you to do the same
25:43mr renegade
25:46mr buckenet what brings you here the same as you i wish for rational argument i discussed for inequality
25:55would you would you care for some cake
26:04thank you
26:07so you're an architect how splendid i should introduce you to my family they'll be terribly impressed no i
26:13doubt it i'm a modernist in my experience the money classes are highly conservative in their tastes
26:20now you i suspect are a radical i like to think i have an open mind
26:25why else would you be here unchaperoned
26:28i don't care a fig for such nonsense
26:31i suspect your mother does
26:33and what she doesn't know can't hurt her
26:39do you have a card in case any of my family should at some point require your services you and
26:44i both know how unlikely that is
26:56culver street hardly an illustrious address and it's a garret oh i adore garret
27:21proposal to admit montagu darty to the board i don't expect you to like it
27:26is an imbecile but if we're to get the votes we need
27:37last minute addition to the agenda item five reputational risk and remedial action
27:45so here we are here we are
27:52let battle commence
28:10large brandy in the day's papers
28:12shop shop shop item number four the proposed election of montagu darty

28:21proposer
28:26seconded
28:31all those in favor
28:36those against
28:45montagu darty is elected to the board
28:50i suppose you should let him in
28:54for those who voted in my favor good choice
29:06to any who voted against
29:10all right
29:13item five
29:16reputational risk and remedial action
29:21yes
29:22i'm afraid there have been alarming rumors implicating one of our own which
29:28should they reach the ears of our more eminent clients could lead them to take their business
29:32elsewhere
29:33what rumors are these
29:35concerning a senior partner
29:39debauching a serving that is not what happened that is not who she was and those are not the
29:44circumstances and for those of you as yet in the dark my nephew
29:54i had a relationship prior to my marriage with a young woman i met in venice
29:57some days ago i learned that when we parted she was with child
30:02twins to be precise now ten years of age living with their mother in london
30:08and distasteful as some of you doubtless may find it distasteful
30:13try scandalous
30:14inexcusable
30:15what we can't ignore is that many of our clients will
30:19find such liaison distasteful but of course they will
30:24because such things have never happened in respectable families
30:29good lord what a nurse
30:31and it'll be the first misstep that this family has never made
30:36more for goodness sake gentlemen please
30:42may i ask what brings you here today curiosity
30:46this is most irregular we do not admit ladies into the inner sanctum
30:52oh the inner sanctum
30:55that solely exists because i paid for it
31:00can i not see what my marriage settlement bought
31:03mater
31:05the matter in hand concerns the irrevocable damage to company reputation should joe remain
31:11within its ranks we are inviting him
31:14to step away
31:16for the good of the family name
31:18oh the good of the family name
31:20ah
31:22our sainted family devoid of scandal
31:28closets
31:30skeletal remains
31:35yes but the effect
31:37the damage to our reputation
31:39there will be no damage the matter can be hushed up and the girl paid off
31:42please allow me to deal with this
31:48if we could be certain of the girl's discretion we could
31:53agree to turn a blind eye
31:55but though i trust he's not expecting any settlement to come out of company funds
32:02i'm best assured
32:03i have no intention of asking anyone here to take responsibility for my obligations
32:09the fact remains i had two children
32:12of whom i'm not ashamed
32:16nor of myself
32:24well
32:25you heard him no remorse
32:29disappointing has to go
32:32with regret
32:35i propose that joelian foresight

33:03thank you ma'am

33:06i'm not content with how we left things
33:08more is due to you and the children

33:16deprive them

33:19no that's not what i meant
33:21can i not want them to have a better life

33:32can you
33:34a girl
33:34a girl two infants

33:48why would i why would they need any more than what we have
33:55no
33:55mom will you come

34:46They're beautiful.
34:47They are.
34:50If you told me, I would have come for you.
34:54Your family would have cut you off.
34:56You'd be living in disgrace.
34:58And knowing all of that, I still would have come.
35:03It wasn't to be.
35:04No, it wasn't.
35:08Goodbye, Joe.
35:13Goodbye, Joe.
35:15Goodbye.
35:16Goodbye.
35:25Goodbye.
35:26Oh, my God.
36:01Can I be of assistance?
36:05No one can.
36:12Well, can I at least offer you some cocoa?
36:31I find that cocoa is the answer to most hills.
36:35Even a stepfather with feet of clay.
36:40He's utterly betrayed me.
36:43I can see it must seem that way.
36:45If you'd seen him with them, smiling adoringly, as if I didn't even exist.
36:56You exist to me, Miss Renegade.
36:59I do.
37:01I see you.
37:04Clear as day.
37:10I should go.
37:12I really shouldn't be here at all.
37:14I'm glad you were.
37:16I'm glad you were.
38:05I've brought Miss Heron to see you.
38:07I congratulate you.
38:10Thank you, Grandmama.
38:13For catching them all unawares.
38:17But not you.
38:19The Carteret girl was too obvious.
38:22Not your type at all.
38:27Bring her to me.
38:42I just spoke to your father.
38:47Don't you want to know how it went?
38:48The vote?
38:54I can guess.
38:57In your favor.
38:59How?
39:01You're not to be expelled.
39:03So the chairmanship can now be yours.
39:09You must see what this now affords us.
39:12It's a golden opportunity for you to recommit to your family, the firm, our life together.
39:37How do you see that?
39:40My commitment to you and June is absolute.
39:50So tell me, my dear.
39:55Are you prepared?
39:56For what?
39:59The Fawcite family.
40:01Are you aware of its peculiarities?
40:04Everyone has been welcoming.
40:07And Soames?
40:10What do you know of him?
40:11What can you tell me?
40:16Soames has never loved before.
40:19That he does so now is significant.
40:22You will want for nothing.
40:24You'll be mistress of all you survey.
40:27My wants are modest.
40:29And what are those wants?
40:31To love and be loved.
40:34To trust and be trusted.
40:37To dance.
40:39And it will be a dance.
40:43Whether the Pavan or a Tarantella.
40:46Or a Padida.
40:50And you?
40:53Are you in love?
40:55Oh, I have tremors.
41:01My pulse races and I feel faint.
41:04Some poets call that love.
41:07What would you call it?
41:10A prelude.
41:13To something deeper.
41:18I hope you find it.
41:29I trust she wasn't too fierce.
41:32She was kind.
41:35You didn't mention Paris.
41:37Should I have done?
41:39Time enough to address that when we're there together.
41:42Planning our future.
41:47To our wedding day.
42:13So, do we think this wedding is a love match?
42:16How can anyone not marry for love?
42:22Because love is only part of what makes a marriage.
42:27Respect.
42:29Patience.
42:32Belief.
42:33These also matter.
42:36And that's what you had with Papa.
42:41Have.
42:44Still.
43:01This could have been the event of the season.
43:04Rather than some low-key hole-in-the-corner travesty.
43:08I just wish it hadn't come so soon.
43:11Soon, Emily?
43:13You've had him at home his entire life.
43:25It's just the thought of losing him to someone I don't really know.
43:30Who might wish to keep him all to herself.
43:33Yes, well, that's the least of it.
43:35Instead of idling around Europe,
43:38he could be here planning our next strategy.
43:44Do you like it, Mama?
43:46Monty assures me it costs the earth.
43:48Nothing's too good for my Freddy.
43:50A man of business can afford such trifles.
43:55Lord help us.
44:06For heaven's sake, Irene, the carriage will be here any minute.
44:11I hope I'm as blessed as they were.
44:13Can you ever doubt it?
44:15In the resources at Mr. Forsyte's disposal.
44:18His willingness to uproot his entire existence for your sake.
44:22I meant that hers was a love match.
44:29And yours is?
44:33I don't yet know what to call it.
44:38He told me it would be all that I dreamt of.
44:42And more.
44:43Then I suggest you count your blessings and get dressed.
44:45I don't know what to call it.
45:18I don't know what to call it.
45:19Thanks.
45:55Perhaps she's had a change of heart.
45:58If she has any sense.
46:00Mama, where is she?
46:02I don't know.
46:19I don't know.
47:50What does it tell you?
47:58That true love is what matters.
48:01A meeting of minds.
48:03A conjunction of souls.
48:06That is what matters.
48:07Good.
48:10We agree.
48:12We agree.
48:13Good.
48:26Good.
48:28Good.
48:30Good.
48:32Good.
48:35Good.
48:35Good.
48:36Good.
48:36Good.
48:37Good.
48:38Good.
48:38Good.
48:38Good.
48:39Good.
48:40Good.
48:40Good.
48:41Good.
48:42Good.
49:14You see, it wasn't that hard, deciding to move on from them.
49:27That wasn't what I said.
49:33It was implied.
49:35I said my commitment to you is beyond doubt.
49:39But to suggest that I've moved on from them will be to deny that any of it mattered.
49:45Well, of course, I accept that you were once fond of her.
49:48I wasn't fond, Frances.
49:52My children were conceived of love.
50:07So let us be clear.
50:11That love, as you call it, has no place in this house.
50:15So kill it.
50:17Once and for all.
50:21We'll face the consequences.
50:42For what?
50:45Showing me a life and a man that I never knew existed.
50:53Till I met you.
50:57I don't know.
50:58I don't know.
51:09I don't know.
51:11I don't know.
51:12I don't know.
51:12I don't know.
51:13I don't know.
51:13I don't know.
51:14I don't know.
51:14I don't know.
51:14I don't know.
51:16I don't know.
51:17I don't know.
51:19I don't know.
51:22I don't know.
