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.
05:25What doesn't it do?
05:26Ahem.
05:31Wait.
05:32Oh, did you wish?
05:34Oh, come on.
06:16So, if you loved her, why did you marry Mama?
06:25Because your mother was, is an incredible woman, cultured, caring, kind, and 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?
06:58I can't answer that.
07:02You just did.
07:05June, wait.
07:06Yes.
07:27You've had time.
07:33I 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
08:13Did 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 give me the honour
08:43Of wearing this ring?
08:54You dislike it?
08:55No, no, how could I? It's just...
08:58I mean...
08:59Is this happening to me?
09:02There must be so many more suitable women of your own station
09:04Very many
09:07Eminently suitable
09:09All art and
09:11Polish and
09:13Impeccable breeding
09:17Whereas you
09:19Are all nature
09:23And to me that is perfection
09:38May I now have the honour
09:41Of introducing you to my family
09:45My love
09:47My love
09:48Yes
09:50Yes
09:50You
09:51It's a lot of
09:53I love you
10:29Mama was always fond of that one.
10:31She was a fine woman.
10:34Not a first love, but a 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 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 realise 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.
12:03Even 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.
12:23Chin up, my dear.
12:26Tomorrow's race should cheer your spirits.
12:37Yes, peaches!
12:38Come on, peaches!
12:39Come on, peaches!
12:40Hold it!
12:41Go, peaches!
12:42Come on, lady, peaches!
12:44Come on, lady, peaches!
12:47Stay on!
12:49Go!
12:50There's yours!
12:51Yes!
12:53Those!
12:55Those!
12:56vegetarian!
12:57No!
12:58Teach it!
12:58Uh!
13:02No!
13:05No!
13:06No!
13:07No!
13:09No!
13:11No!
13:14No!
13:15Yes!
13:15No!
13:16No!
13:17No!
13:17No!
13:21No, no, so close, so close, you donkey, damn it, I've been sold a pup, a turkey, a clunker,
13:38a veritable dud, but she did so well Monty, she almost won,
13:46they need to fix that, how's Alicia, if we value your life, never ask if she's feeling tired or would
13:56like a chair,
13:57oh no, she already made that clear, I'm with child Joe, I'm not an invalid or an imbecile,
14:06how are things with Francis, just saying my connections with Louisa have consequences,
14:12neither of us reckoned with, and 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 Carford, I 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 families,
14:49forgive me if I'm deliberately evade, of course, oh, Miss Heron, Mrs. Heron, my family, how do you do,
15:07forgive me, I feel we're a formidable prospect, not at all, I'm delighted to make the acquaintance of such a
15:13distinguished family,
15:16and there'll be ample opportunity for deepening that acquaintance, as Miss Heron has done me the honour of agreeing to
15:23be my wife,
15:37congratulations, thank you, our wedding will shortly take place by special licence,
15:43after which we depart for Europe, on your honeymoon, how thrilling, where will you go?
15:48If tradition dictates that, must remain a secret.
15:53Heron, you say, do we know that name?
15:58Who 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.
16:24Shall 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?
16:42Well, surely the sooner we arrive in Paris.
16:58Well, surely the sooner we arrive in Paris.
17:19Your 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?
17:55When Joe's dug himself a hole,
17:58we've got 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.
18:29What?
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?
18:47Come on.
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.
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.
19:58Just about this thatviticus.
20:00Anyättions?
20:01Yes.
20:01Yes.
20:14That is it a staging?
20:17Alright?
20:18Yes.
20:18And having !
20:19Oh!
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 stepping so
20:45far outside your million i thank you for your concern but i can only start as i mean to go
20:50on
20:52by doing what feels right
20:57for 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 they just keep saying we have a reputation to
21:27uphold 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
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 in which case i'd quite understand if you wish to go elsewhere
21:54elsewhere
21:55elsewhere i should think not and her tone almost as if she was wishing me gone and why would that
22:02be
22:03thank 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
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
23:02i mean any of these could be said to jeopardize the reputation of the firm
23:05but it happened before he and francis met
23:08some might call it a youthful indiscretion
23:10well they'd be wrong
23:11such behavior is
23:13yes monty
23:14what is it
23:19am i looking at my club

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 only that, I still would have come.
35:03It wasn't to be.
35:04No, it wasn't.
35:08Goodbye, Joe.
35:42Mr. Renegade.
35:42Mr. Renegade.
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.
37:02I 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.
37:16I'm glad you're here at all.
37:16I'm glad you're here at all.
37:26I'm glad you're here at all.
37:28I'm glad you're here at all.
37:30I'm glad you're here at all.
37:30I'm glad you're here at all.
37:31I'm glad you're here at all.
37:32I'm glad you're here at all.
37:33I'm glad you're here at all.
37:34I'm glad you're here at all.
37:34I'm glad you're here at all.
37:35I'm glad you're here at all.
37:35I'm glad you're here at all.
37:35I'm glad you're here at all.
37:36I'm glad you're here at all.
37:37I'm glad you're here at all.
37:38I'm glad you're here at all.
37:40I'm glad you're here at all.
37:56Come.
38:04I'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 Forsyte 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.
40:28And what are those wants?
40:31To love.
40:33And be loved.
40:34To trust.
40:36And 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.
40:59I have tremors.
41:01My pulse races.
41:03And I feel faint.
41:05Some poets call that love.
41:07What would you call it?
41:10A prelude.
41:12To 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.
41:49Hmm.
42:13So.
42:14Do 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.
42:34These also matter.
42:35And 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.
43:26It's just the thought of losing him to someone we 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, 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.
44:07Heaven'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.
45:10I don't know what to call it.
45:55Perhaps she's had a change of heart
45:57If she has any sense
46:00Mama, where is she?
46:02I don't know
46:04What's she doing?
46:12I don't know
46:12I don't know
46:13I don't know
47:43To trust no one but myself, to think for myself, to do only what my heart tells me.
47:52What does it tell you?
47:58The 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.
48:17We agree.
48:25We agree.
48:27We agree.
48:34We agree.
48:35I don't know.
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'll do it.
50:58That Genau.
51:10I'm sorry.
51:11I'm sorry.
51:12Because I'm not scared.
51:13I'm sorry.
51:18I'm not scared.
51:22I'm sorry.
51:24I'm sorry.
51:25I'm...
