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.
06:16So, if you loved her, why 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, I was sometimes a little lost.
06:45And had you known about her situation, what would you have done?
06:57I can't answer that.
07:02You just did.
07:05June, wait.
07:06June, wait.
07:27You've had 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.
08:23Yesterday 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.
08:41Would you do me the honor of wearing this ring?
08:54You dislike it?
08:55No, no.
08:55How could I?
08:56It's just...
08:58I mean, is this happening to me?
09:02Well, there must be so many more suitable women of your own station.
09:05Very many.
09:07Eminently suitable.
09:09All art and polish and impeccable breeding.
09:17Whereas you...
09:19are all nature.
09:23And to me, that is perfection.
09:38May I now have the honor
09:40of introducing you to my family.
09:46My love.
09:49Yes.
09:50My love.
09:51My love.
09:52My love.
09:59My love.
10:02My love.
10:29Mama was always fond of that one.
10:31She was a fine woman.
10:34Not a fast love, but...
10:37a lasting one.
10:44So, it's a full turn-out tomorrow?
10:47What's this?
10:48Epsom races. Monty's horse is running.
10:51What could possibly go wrong?
10:52What shall I wear?
10:55I 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 mounting her yourself, then?
11:08Do you know the thought had occurred?
11:09But the 2.30 at Epsom, 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 have 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, but he'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.
12:03Even 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,
12:16Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
12:23Cheer not, my dear.
12:26Tomorrow's race should cheer your spirits.
12:37Yes, peaches!
12:38Come on, peaches!
12:39Hold him!
12:41Go!
12:41Go, peaches!
12:42Come on, lady, peaches!
12:44Come on, lady, peaches!
12:46Come on!
12:47Stay on!
12:49It's a dog!
12:50Come on!
12:51Yes!
12:53Go!
12:54Go!
12:56Go!
12:56Go!
12:57Go!
12:58Go, peaches!
13:19Go, peaches!
13:21No!
13:22No!
13:23No!
13:23I'm so close.
13:25So close.
13:26So close.
13:27You donkey!
13:32Damn it!
13:34I've been sold a pup, a turkey, a clunker, a veritable dud.
13:39But she did so well, Monty.
13:41She almost won.
13:46They need to fix that.
13:50How's Alicia?
13:52How's Alicia?
13:52If we value your life, never ask if she's feeling tired or 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.
14:06How are things with Francis?
14:09It's just saying my 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, or is he keeping his intended under lock and key?
14:32Oh, Miss Carpheret.
14:34Oh, Miss Carpheret.
14:35I would have been proud to think we'd achieved nobility in three generations.
14:46Just to alert you, I haven't purchased any of our plans with your family, so forgive
14:50me if I'm deliberately vague.
14:51Of course.
14:53Oh.
14:58Miss Heron, Mrs. Heron, my family.
15:03How do you do?
15:07Forgive me, I feel we're a formidable prospect.
15:10Not 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, as Miss Heron has done me
15:22the honor of agreeing to be my wife.
15:24words, my daughter.
15:26Oh, my daughter.
15:29Oh.
15:31Oh.
15:33Oh.
15:33Oh.
15:34Oh.
15:34Oh.
15:36Oh, too.
15:36Oh.
15:41Oh.
15:43Oh, really?
15:49Oh.
15:53Oh.
15:53Oh, oh.
15:54Oh.
15:54Oh.
15:54Oh.
15:54you say. Do we know that name? Who are your people, my dear?
16:01No one of consequence. My father was a professor and my mother...
16:04Oh, can we please not subject Miss Heron to the Spanish Inquisition?
16:07No, no, no, indeed. That function belongs to me. The customary formalities?
16:17Yes, of course.
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 save a fortnight from now is too soon.
16:41A fortnight?
16:43Surely the sooner we arrive in Paris.
16:54My wife...
16:56My wife...
16:58My wife...
16:59My wife...
17:19your mother is seriously displeased why wasn't she consulted and the haste how long have you
17:30known this girl long enough she seems rather lovely oh emily she is you'll like her you must be
17:40fearfully in love in love the deuce does that mean it means everything trust me
17:49this is not the match we were expecting no i see that and to take the plunge now when joe's
17:56dug
17:56himself a hole we've got a clear shot of the chairmanship and you're about to go gallivanting
18:01off around the continent perhaps we should just leave joe to it are you serious
18:18the insanity of it
18:22i think i rather envy him how daring to follow his heart
18:30did you did i for god's sake emily
18:37what sort of a question is that
18:44come along pudding shall we retire
18:56well that was sheer purgatory
19:02absolute hell
19:04grinning like fools as if our whole lives were not on the rack
19:15i know what makes this even worse we always wanted children of our own
19:25yes
19:30somehow that never happened
19:36now 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
20:02you
20:09you
20:11you
20:20you
20:23you
20:30you're not wearing that are you i mean the foresight ladies will never approve
20:36is it not sufficiently modish my concern is that you don't embarrass yourself you're
20:44stepping so far outside your milieu i thank you for your concern but i can only start
20:49what does i mean to go on by doing what feels right for me
21:07so i was thinking crimson or burgundy my husband says don't be extravagant which is rich coming
21:14from him when he outspends his allowance every month and then blames me because he has no
21:18profession it's hardly my fault my father and uncle won't give him a role in the company
21:22they sort of haven't hinted at it countless times but i just keep saying we have a reputation
21:27to uphold at foresight and co foresight but your name's darty yes by marriage foresight by birth
21:36you know my cousin-in-law mrs francis foresight yes yes i uh i should perhaps warn you i'm
21:46snowed under with orders it could be months before your gown is ready in which case i'd
21:51quite understand if you wish to go elsewhere elsewhere i should think not and her tone
21:59almost as if she was wishing me gone and why would that be thank your cousin joe what
22:08and 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
22:28without 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
22:51into our hands how so you wouldn't be the first to father children out of wedlock for our purposes
22:57it serves us to portray him as a libertine the callous seducer the neglectful father i mean any of
23:03these could be 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
23:25does 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 and your plan
23:42is to
23:42expel joe from the company do you have a majority are you sure you couldn't use an extra vote
23:50well 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
24:08philanthropist mrs ellen parker barrington you believe you have no voice i believe the same
24:17i've been confused ignored disrespected in my time oh but trust me i'm under no illusion it is my wealth
24:30my standing which now confers power commands respect demands attention my late husband owned woolen mills
24:41in the north once viewed his workers as commodities expendable but he was brought to see them as precious
24:51human souls worthy of respect of dignity of proper recompense so change is possible
25:07and i owe those who have not been as fortunate as i to challenge ignorance and injustice
25:18wherever i see it
25:22i invite you to do the same
25:43mr renegade mr buccaner what brings you here the same as you i wish for rational argument i discussed
25:52for inequality would you would you have 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
26:13i doubt it i'm a modernist in my experience the money classes are highly conservative in their
26:18tastes now you i suspect are a radical i like to think i have an open mind
26:25why else would you be here unchaperoned i don't care a fig for such nonsense
26:31i suspect your mother does and 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
26:45how unlikely that is
26:57culver 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
27:27but 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 shop shop item number four the proposed election of montagu darty
28:19to the board
28:20to the board proposer
28:27seconded
28:31all those in favor
28:36those against
28:45montagu darty is elected to the board
28:49i suppose you should let him in
29:00for those who voted in my favor good choice
29:07to 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 what rumors are these concerning 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
29:58some days ago i learned that when we parted she was with child
30:02twins to be precise
30:04now ten years of age living with her mother in london
30:08and distasteful as some of you doubtless may find it distasteful
30:13try scandalous inexcusable what we can't ignore is that many of our clients will
30:19find such a liaison distasteful but of course they will
30:25because such things have never happened in respectable families
30:29good lord what a nurse and it'll be the first misstep that this family has never made
30:36well for goodness sake gentlemen please
30:42may i ask what brings you here today curiosity this is most irregular we do not admit ladies into the
30:51inner sanctum oh the inner sanctum that 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 within its ranks
31:12we are inviting him to step away for the good of the family name
31:18the good of the family name ah
31:22our sainted family devoid of scandal closets
31:30skeletal remains
31:35yes but the effect the damage to our reputation there will be
31:39no damage the matter can be hushed up and the girl paid off please allow me to deal with this
31:48if we could be certain of the girl's discretion we could agree to turn a blind eye
31:55but though i trust he's not expecting any settlement to come out of company funds
32:01i trust assured i have no intention of asking anyone here to take responsibility for my obligations
32:09the fact remains i had two children of whom i'm not ashamed
32:16nor of myself
32:24well
32:26you heard him no remorse disappointing has to go
32:32with regret
32:35i propose that jolian foresight be expelled from the company
32:48all those in favor
33:00it's fine um
33:02thank you
33:03why are you here
33:06i'm not content with how we left things
33:08more is due to you and the children
33:10nothing is due we are content
33:13can you have the right to deprive them by refusing my support
33:16deprive them
33:17did they look deprived
33:19no that's not what i meant
33:21can i not want them to have a better life
33:24have you given at the slightest thought to how my life has been since we parted
33:30no i can only imagine
33:32can you
33:34a girl two infants no one to turn to
33:38gradually to take a fierce pride in knowing that she could provide
33:42to have raised two beautiful souls single-handed
33:48why would i why would they need any more than what we have
33:55no
33:55mom will you come

34:01go
34:02no
35:04No, it wasn't.
35:08Goodbye, Joe.
35:54Is there any case?
36:01Can I be of assistance?
36:05I won't get.
36:14Can 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.
36:37Why?
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.
37:02I 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.
37:15I'm glad you are.
37:57Come.
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.
38:46Don't you want to know how it went?
38:49The vote?
38:54I can guess.
38:57In your favor.
38:59How?
39:00You're not to be expelled.
39:02So the chairmanship can now be yours.
39:09You must see what this now affords us.
39:13A golden opportunity.
39:18For you to recommit.
39:21To your family.
39:23The firm.
39:27Our 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?
39:57For what?
39:59The Foresight 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.
40:26My wants are modest.
40:28And what are those wants?
40:31To love.
40:33And be loved.
40:34To trust and be trusted.
40:37To...
40:38Dance.
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.
40:58I...
40:59I...
40:59I...
40:59have...
41:00tremors.
41:01My pulse races.
41:03And 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.
41:24I 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.
41:52To our wedding day.
42:13So, do we think this wedding is a love match?
42:17How can anyone not marry for love?
42:22Because love is only part of what makes a marriage.
42:26So, respect, patience, belief, these also matter.
42:36And that's what you had with Papa.
42:40Have.
42:44Still.
43:01This could have been the event of the season, rather 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.
43:26It's just the thought of losing him to someone we don't really know, who might wish to keep him all
43:32to herself.
43:33Yes, well, that's the least of it.
43:35Instead of idling around Europe, he 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 theirs 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.
44:53I hope you want to go.
44:55Come on.
45:00Mama.
45:06Mama.
45:16Mama.
45:19Mama.
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.
46:20Mama, where is she?
46:22Mama, where is she?
46:23Mama, where is she?
46:25Mama, where is she?
46:57Mama, where is she?
47:15Mama, where is she?
47:18Mama, where is she?
47:58But true love is what matters.
48:01A meeting of minds.
48:04A conjunction of souls.
48:06That is what matters.
48:07Good. We agree.
48:37Good.
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, but to suggest that I've moved on from them
49:41will 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.
49:50Frances, my 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
50:50that I never knew existed
50:53till I met you.
50:57No.
51:16No.
51:18No.
51:20No.
