00:09If London was to be a new start for me, I would push all sorts of poetry and love aside.
00:19Mother warned me of the dirt, disease and despair that could be found here.
00:25She failed to mention the breadth of humanity.
00:30And the anonymity of the city suited me well.
00:34I had taken to walking the city's beautiful parks.
00:38It seemed that all life was in London.
00:42And here I could be anything I wanted.
00:51Surely I would find something I could succeed at in this vast, inspiring city.
00:59Where did I put it?
01:00How did she do this?
01:01Oh, she breaks my heart a little.
01:03She seems so awkward in herself.
01:06I worry my sister's caused some harm to poor Mary.
01:09Oh, I wonder.
01:10She's perhaps not the most natural madness.
01:13But what else could she do in life?
01:15Be her mother's companion?
01:17I thought Tom brought her out of herself.
01:19Kind-hearted man that he is.
01:20And she seemed to get on well with Anne Baxter the other evening.
01:23She has so little confidence.
01:25Yes.
01:25It can't have been easy growing up in the shadow of her sisters.
01:30Found it.
01:30Oh, there it is.
01:32Well, I'm happy she's with us.
01:34She has an interesting...
01:40Oh, it's Bennett.
01:42Mr. Hayward.
01:45How are you?
01:46Are you good to hear how you've been getting on with the poetry?
01:48Oh, well, uh...
01:50I'm not sure I have the mind to appreciate it completely.
01:52I keep hoping Mr. Coleridge will explain himself for that.
01:56Mr. Wordsworth will say what he really means, but...
01:59They seem to enjoy keeping their secrets.
02:02Well, do not blame yourself.
02:04I think some poets enjoy being difficult to understand.
02:15Miss Bennett, I was so sorry to hear about your father.
02:19Moving to the city without your family here.
02:22You not having your mother to confide in.
02:24Oh, it's a relief to be without her.
02:26In fact, it's something of a relief to be without any of them.
02:34I'm sorry you're not feeling yourself.
02:39I'm afraid I'm not.
02:40I'm just not finding my place here as easily as I thought.
02:44Sorry, please excuse me.
02:45Oh, Mary!
02:46Tom, how lovely to see you!
02:49Quietly, my dear, you'll summon the children
02:50who I fear have begun to associate Tom's name
02:53with a worryingly large bag of sugar plums.
02:55Please excuse me.
02:56Sorry, I'm sorry.
02:57Ah!
03:18My dear Mary,
03:20I fear your correspondence has not been reaching me.
03:23I have heard nothing from you at all.
03:28How are you managing your duties?
03:30You never were good with children,
03:32even when you were one yourself.
03:35I may require you to return to Pemberley,
03:38where I will be spending the summer.
03:43Lizzie has expressed a wish to see you,
03:45but more urgently,
03:47my new puppy has a nervous air
03:49and requires near-constant companionship.
03:56I had come to London
03:57to see the world outside of my family
03:59and that is what I would do.
04:06Oh, Mary, you're painting!
04:09To teach the children.
04:10Oh, how marvellous to see your imagination at play!
04:16It's terrible.
04:18No!
04:19No, it's...
04:20It's very neat.
04:23Did you see the letter from your mother?
04:26Is she well?
04:27Between several complaints about the damp,
04:30the unseasonable pollen,
04:32and an unpleasant exchange with a rude shopkeeper,
04:35I understand that she is.
04:36Yes.
04:36I honestly think she enjoys such encounters.
04:39It makes her feel more alive.
04:42Oh, now, speaking of encounters,
04:45I think this might be of interest to you.
04:47Tom made a strange request to Mr. Gardiner and I
04:50and extended the invitation to you too, Mary.
04:52Oh?
04:53Yes.
04:53He was most mysterious.
04:55He wants us to meet him tomorrow morning,
04:58where he says he plans to break through
05:00our rational reserve
05:01and move our hearts as well as our heads.
05:05He does?
05:05Yes, yes.
05:06Whatever that might entail.
05:09I must work on my lesson plans.
05:11Mary, you must join us.
05:13For my sake.
05:15Please consider it.
06:02I must have a friend,
06:09Mr. and Mrs. Gardner, Miss Bennet, thank you for humoring me.
06:14Are we allowed to know the purpose of our visit?
06:16I have conspired with the City of London and William Wordsworth himself for a morning recital unlike any other in
06:22a hidden garden.
06:23Good Lord.
06:24Will Miss Baxter be joining us?
06:26I'm afraid Miss Baxter has a variety of excuses that she skillfully deploys to avoid such events.
06:31Well, remind me to ask her what they are.
06:33Yes, I am afraid that my petitions for Goodwether have been in vain.
06:37No matter. We will not be dissuaded by a little drizzle.
06:42A little drizzle?
06:46Just down there.
06:53This way?
06:54Yes.
07:10That's magical.
07:12Well.
07:18Please forgive the theatrics.
07:20I have given Miss Bennet the impossible task of understanding poetry without any real sense of how to feel it.
07:29Sometimes, with poetry, the more I think, the less I understand.
07:43Earth has not anything to show more fair.
07:47Dole would he be of soul who could pass by, a sight so touching in its majesty.
07:54This city now doth, like a garment, wear the beauty of the morning, silent, bare.
08:06Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie open unto the fields, into the sky.
08:18All bright and glittering in the smokeless earth.
08:23Never did sun more beautifully steep in its first splendor.
08:28Valley, rock, or hill.
08:31Nurse or I, never felt a calm so deep.
08:37The river glideth at his own sweet will.
08:42Dear God, the very houses seem asleep.
08:47And all that mighty heart is lying still.
09:01Well done, Tom.
09:03A moving rendition.
09:05Tom, I confess, I felt entirely transported by the force of your words.
09:10And what a beautiful place.
09:13I was tearing at the flowers like this.
09:15Yes, your ability to kill our plants seems to be second to none.
09:19Come, let's take a turn.
09:21Indeed.
09:23This place is magical.
09:26It's a good garden.
09:27Yes, it is.
09:29Look at what you...
09:35Well, Miss Bennet.
09:39How do you feel?
09:41I...
09:45Well, for once I have nothing to say.
09:48I'm sorry to hear that.
09:49No, I wish to say something inspiring, but I do not know how.
09:59You have such varied ways to express your feelings.
10:04Mine feel frozen or feeble or entirely unknowable.
10:13I do not know, Miss Bennet.
10:15Well, I use the words of others to puzzle through things I do not understand.
10:21But I do not believe that you are truly a stranger to strong emotions.
10:34Forgive me.
10:37Oh, um...
10:38Sorry, Miss Bennet, I...
10:39Oh.
10:40It was just a petal.
10:42Miss Hayward, I...
10:42I think I must leave London.
10:45Well, you've only just arrived.
10:48It's no great event.
10:49My...
10:49My mother needs a companion.
10:51I see.
10:52And...
10:52Well, you will likely be...
10:54Very busy.
10:55Soon.
10:56What with, uh...
10:57Social engagements and, uh...
11:00Miss Baxter.
11:03I'm sure you'll scarcely have time to notice I'm gone.
11:08Well, I'd hoped that this would restore your spirit.
11:10Oh, indeed it did.
11:12It did.
11:14I shall never forget it.
11:29I shall travel to Pemberley on the 18th.
11:32Good heavens.
11:33Mary, this is quite unexpected.
11:35Well, is anything the matter?
11:37My mother needs me.
11:39Is my sister bored?
11:41I know that she's more likely than anyone in England to summon the troops on account of her loneliness.
11:45But must you answer the call?
11:50I think I must.
11:51Well, we so enjoy having you here.
11:54The children will be disappointed.
11:56Yes, it's kind of you to say.
11:59It is the truth.
12:04I must plan today's lessons.
12:14Dearest mother, although my time in London has been enlightening, I will be by your side for your summer at
12:23Pemberley.
12:24As requested.
12:27I am grateful for the generosity extended by my aunt and uncle, but as you rightly point out, I do
12:33not wish to burn them.
12:35And it will, of course, be an honour to look after your new pub.
13:00Do come in.
13:17There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
13:22She had so many children, she didn't know what to do.
13:26She gave them some broth without any bread.
13:30And she whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.
13:33That poem started very well and ended very badly.
13:37A good observation, Miss Marianne.
13:39Why didn't she just move into a boot when the children got too many?
13:43Fine suggestion, Miss Rebecca.
13:44It's a glorious revolution all finished then, Miss Bennet.
13:48This week, we will write and perform a poem instead.
13:51Yes!
13:53I want to do a poem about myself because I'm quite interesting.
13:57I'll do typhoid.
13:59Or frogs.
14:00Disgusting.
14:03Miss Marianne?
14:05Love.
14:16The eye it cannot choose but see.
14:19We cannot bid the ear be still.
14:22Our bodies feel where they be.
14:26Against or with our will.
14:35A big green frog sat on a log.
14:38The frog was quite full.
14:41It had eaten ten flies, two slugs, one worm and three lily pad pies.
14:51Oh, Miss Bennet, you were obviously inspired by our morning poetry reading.
14:55Oh, I was.
14:57No, I, um, yes, I am.
15:00Oh, no.
15:01What is it, Miss Rebecca?
15:02I had a prop and I forgot to use it.
15:06Oh, uh, well, um, fear not.
15:10A prop is, is a cheap trick that diminishes the power of words.
15:14Indeed.
15:18Who's next?
15:22I would be sad to leave London.
15:25It was the first time I had ever felt a sense of belonging.
15:30Oh, there you are.
15:32I wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful day.
15:36The children will be inconsolable about you leaving.
15:39Marianne is stitching you a cushion with an inspirational Latin phrase, I believe.
15:44Oh, yes, it's Mori Quam Fodari, Death Before Dishonour.
15:50Goodness, how exciting.
15:52We shall miss you, Mary.
15:55I think we both know I'm not well suited to London's liveliness.
16:01Oh, Mary, you've barely given it a chance.
16:05Things change.
16:09People, situations, over time.
16:17May I venture something on that subject?
16:22The other day, I went to buy a bonnet.
16:25And in the first shop I went into, found a stunning bonnet.
16:30An elegant blue, quite lovely on me if I dare say such a thing.
16:33When I went to purchase it,
16:37it had been reserved for someone else.
16:41I went into another shop and found not four other bonnets I liked just as much.
16:47And in the end,
16:50one a shade of dusky pink that suited me even more.
16:57Do you see what I'm saying?
17:01Blue is not your colour?
17:04No, I'm saying that London has such a variety of choices and such quantity, too.
17:09You may enjoy the first thing you see well enough,
17:13but often something more exciting will come along.
17:18Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know.
17:21Well, um, yes, thank you for that.
17:23It was very interesting.
17:26Oh, I was meaning to tell you.
17:28We have decided to host a little entertainment tomorrow.
17:31A night of games.
17:32Oh, dear.
17:34What sort of games?
17:35No catching.
17:36Word games.
17:37Riddles and such.
17:38And very pleasant company.
17:40Company I know, or new company?
17:43All new.
17:45And very friendly.
17:47We desperately desire that you remember London fondly.
17:51This may be your final event with us before you leave.
17:58I resolved not to send the letter to Mother just yet.
18:03It would be a shame to leave before the weekend.
18:40Sorry, I didn't realise there was a line.
18:42No, please.
18:43I wish more people had such a restrained relationship to Punch.
18:48May I?
18:48Oh, yes, of course.
18:51Noble defender of the Punch.
18:52I surrender my post.
18:57And what brings you here?
18:58The word games or the company?
19:00I like words.
19:02I'm not much for games.
19:04Ah, then it is the company you've come for.
19:07Miss...
19:07Bennett.
19:08Mary Bennett.
19:10William Ryder.
19:12And where have you come from, Miss Bennett?
19:14Surely I would have remembered seeing you near Punchbowls across London.
19:18I am...
19:19new in town.
19:21Well, I, for one, am always pleased to see a new face.
19:25Huh.
19:29Now, please gather.
19:30Take your seats.
19:31I see the riddles are about to commence.
19:33We are wise to begin with full glasses.
19:42And now, the quickfire round.
19:45Two words, one answer.
19:48Counterfeit agony.
19:49Counterfeit agony.
19:51I mean...
19:52My brain is in agony.
19:53It isn't counterfeit.
19:54It is quite real.
19:56Champagne.
19:57Right.
19:57Champagne.
19:59Champagne!
20:00Right, right, Miss Clark.
20:01Another point to you and our new leader.
20:05Fancy delivering a champagne in word, not in glass.
20:08Tease us, Mr. Gardiner.
20:09All right then, Mr. Ryder.
20:10Here's one for you.
20:13Judy's fellow.
20:15Oh.
20:18My God, I know it.
20:20Punch!
20:21Oh, well done, Mr. Ryder.
20:23Finally, you've arrived.
20:25Oh.
20:29My first's a word, comedians dread to hear.
20:34My next, new life in a revolving year.
20:38I'll repeat it.
20:40My first's a word, comedians dread to hear.
20:43My next, new life in a revolving year.
20:46Offspring.
20:47Yes!
20:47Oh, well done, Miss Bennet.
20:50Barry.
20:51Well done.
20:52Forever.
20:53Yes, Miss Bennet.
20:55Cheers to you.
20:56What's next?
20:58Mandarin.
20:59Delicious.
21:00Miss Bennet.
21:00How lovely to see you.
21:01To you, Miss Baxter.
21:03Mr. Hayward.
21:04We're so pleased you made it.
21:05I had false intelligence.
21:06You were busy this evening.
21:08Well, we somehow managed to persuade Mr. Hayward away from his work.
21:11I have an important case.
21:13Oh, he has the terrible fortune of being the only lawyer in London who exclusively gets important cases.
21:19Do excuses, Mrs. Dream.
21:21Excuse me?
21:24Miss Bennet.
21:25Tom, Will.
21:28Mr. Ryder and I studied law together.
21:30Yes, Mr. Hayward is responsible for my untimely retirement in the field.
21:34Is that so, Mr. Ryder?
21:35Well, he fed me so many poems, I believe myself a deep romantic soul.
21:40Too sensitive for the rigours of law.
21:41This seems a heavy charge to lay solely at the feet of poetry.
21:46Mary, how is the night of games going?
21:48Do we have any hope for making a late charge for a prize?
21:51Not unless you wish to bribe our host.
21:53Miss Bennet here is putting us all to shame.
21:55Oh, nonsense, Miss Ryder.
21:55You beat me to the punch.
21:57You see?
21:59Masterful words.
22:03Please gather yourselves for the penultimate round.
22:06Mr. Ryder.
22:07What?
22:09I'm glad to see you're in better spirits.
22:11Mr. Ryder.
22:14This evening has been something of a tonic, Mr. Hayward.
22:19Round three.
22:21Ready?
22:23Sunday.
22:23Yes.
22:24Appoint your Miss Baxter.
22:28Big shot.
22:29Is it Doldrums?
22:30Oh.
22:31No, no, no.
22:31Forget I said anything.
22:33It's Mercury.
22:33Yes.
22:34Well done.
22:35Did you really?
22:37Well done.
22:37Remarkable.
22:41Come on.
22:42Anybody?
22:43Uh, do you like house?
22:44Yes.
22:45Do you have any chance to think, let alone speak?
22:47I've never known a lack of thinking to prevent you from speaking.
22:50Come on.
22:51That is five points apiece for Miss Clark and Miss Bennet.
22:57Well done.
23:03The final round.
23:05The two players with the most points go head to head to crack one final riddle and decide
23:09the winner.
23:10The leaders come as no surprise.
23:12Miss Clark and Miss Bennet.
23:16You mean I didn't make it?
23:17I'm astonished.
23:18Mrs. Gardiner, would you do the odds?
23:23To suffer my seconds, the doom of my first.
23:27And of all of my seconds, my whole is the worst.
23:43Heartache!
23:45Yes!
23:46Good Lord, she's Britain's finest mind.
23:50Huzzah!
23:54We declare we have a winner.
23:56London's newest arrival, but its fiercest competitor, Miss Mary Bennet.
24:06I'm very glad that we arrived in time to see you ground, Miss Bennet.
24:12I wanted to say this.
24:14Miss Bennet, you are a liar.
24:16Am I?
24:18You told me you were not much for games.
24:20Well, I can't catch.
24:24Miss Bennet, I've been meaning to invite you to tea since I hear, very sadly, you are leaving
24:29London.
24:29Miss Bennet, surely not.
24:30You can't deprive the game players of London your riddling talents.
24:34Miss Bennet, round of applause for our winner, Miss Bennet.
24:39Miss Bennet, well done.
24:40Bravo, bravo, bravo, bravo.
24:43In that moment, I think I understood what my aunt was telling me with the convoluted story
24:49about the bonnets, that quantity has a quality all of its own.
25:21Miss Bennet, thank you so much.
25:36Living in London was helping me to see that there could be more to life than just marriage
25:41or misery.
25:42Perhaps my aunt was right.
25:45Even the most hopeless of situations, the most hopeless of people, can, with kindness,
25:54change, little by little, over time.
25:59I was excited to discover who Mary Bennet might be.
