Part 1 of 9 of the 1979-80 period drama. Young Nell Trent lives with her grandfather in his antique shop, the Old Curiosity Shop. Due to her grandfather's protective nature she has few friends other than servant Kit Nubbles, but she lives in fear of the grotesque money lender Daniel Quilp, who visits Mr Trent regularly. Little do either know that her grandfather has been rapidly losing money at the gaming tables. When Quilp finds out that his money has been used for gambling, he demands repayment of his loans, but with an added security included - he wants Nell too, who he secretly lusts after. Horrified by the proposal, Mr Trent decides the only way to protect his granddaughter is for them to escape at the dead of night...
Starring Natalie Ogle, Sebastian Shaw, Trevor Peacock, Granville Saxton, Christopher Fairbank, Colin Jeavons, Patsy Byrne, Simon Garstang, Freda Jackson, Sandra Payne, Daphne Anderson, Colin Mayes, Val McCrimmon, Audrey Leybourne, Mildred Mayne and Maggie Peterson.

07:57I
07:58I'm so fond of you.
08:02Mrs Quilp, am I nice to look at, too?
08:05Should I be the handsomest creature in the world if I had but whiskers?
08:08Am I quite a lady's man as it is?
08:12Am I, Mrs Quilp?
08:14Oh, yes, Quilp.
08:16If you ever listen to those bell dames again, I'll bite you.
08:34Well?
08:36You're handsome, Quilp.
08:37And?
08:38You're quite a lady's man.
08:40Am I really?
08:41Oh, yes, Quilp.
08:42Lovable, well-loved, Mrs Quilp.
08:44Yes, Quilp.
08:53You wouldn't have married me if I wasn't lovable and nice to look at.
08:57Oh, no, Quilp.
09:01I feel in quite a smoking humour.
09:03I shall blaze the way all night.
09:05But sit where you are, if you please.
09:09In case I need you.
09:11Oh.
09:19On the...
09:22Le...
09:23Left...
09:24Of the spe...
09:26Spe...
09:27Spectator?
09:28Spectator.
09:29Spectator.
09:30Oh, what a thing words are.
09:32I wish I knew every word in every book there is.
09:35I wish I knew them so I could call them out whenever I wanted.
09:38All the military words and the scholars' words and the clergyman's words.
09:42And then again the lawyers' words and words by way of business.
09:45And then again words without end.
09:46World without end.
09:47And then you won't have any of them to call out unless we learn a few more.
09:51What's this one, Kit?
09:59Nero...
10:01Nero...
10:04Nero.
10:07Nero.
10:08Nero.
10:09Nero.
10:10Nero.
10:10Nero.
10:10Nero.
10:10Well, a row's a row.
10:11A quarrel.
10:12Like two people.
10:13And what's something else?
10:15What's this, Kit?
10:18Oh, they're marbles.
10:19Well, that's a pink striped marble, a blue stripe, a green stripe...
10:22Yes, they're marbles.
10:23But look at it, Kit.
10:24There's six marbles in a...
10:26Well, they were in a bowl.
10:28Now they're...
10:28They were in a bowl.
10:29And now they're...
10:30On a bench.
10:32Higgledy-piggledy on the bench.
10:33Just any old how, are they, Kit?
10:34Oh, no, they're neat and tidy.
10:36In a...
10:37In a nice line.
10:38Of course they are.
10:39And another word for line is...
10:42In a...
10:43R...
10:44Row.
10:45Six marbles in a row.
10:46Yes.
10:47Row.
10:47R-O-W-Row.
10:49Walter pronounced row as you said it, but here it's row.
10:52Now then.
10:55Nero.
10:56Nero.
10:57Perfect.
10:59Now.
10:59I'm going to read the sentence very slowly for you.
11:02Then you must try.
11:03Nel!
11:05Coming, Grandfather.
11:07We must stop now.
11:08Oh, you'll try again tomorrow, though, eh?
11:09Yes, we shall.
11:10Nel!
11:13It's for Mr. Quilp, Nel.
11:16Quilp.
11:18Do I have to go to him again?
11:20Be patient with him, Nel.
11:23Wait for him to address you.
11:26Smile a little as you pass it to him.
11:28And be sure to curtsy, Nel.
11:31Wait silently while he reads it.
11:33Yes, Grandfather.
11:33And bring an answer, Nel.
11:36Yes.
11:37No matter what else, dear, he must let you have an answer.
11:41Yes, she shall let me have an answer, most elegant.
11:46A single word from her cherry lips.
11:48And what is that word, sir?
11:49Little Nel, what is that word?
11:50Mr. Swiveller, you must forgive us.
11:52We are concerned with other matters.
11:54There is no other matter, sir.
11:56Such the length and breadth of our city today, sir.
11:58Such Highgate and Hampton.
11:59No, sir.
12:00There is but one matter for concern and jubilation.
12:03Richard Swiveller, sir.
12:06And Miss Sophie Wackles.
12:10The question, but the question answered.
12:12A fond embrace.
12:14The years ahead.
12:15Go now, child.
12:16Go quickly.
12:17Go and tell it on your way, Miss Nel.
12:19Tell all inside me.
12:20Tonight, Richard Swiveller is on his knees.
12:21The sweetest, the fairest, the most beautiest.
12:23Mr. Swiveller, I have much to do.
12:27I wish you well with Miss Wackles.
12:30But I must also wish you a good day.
12:34I have come with a purpose, sir.
12:38No idle wind has blown Richard Swiveller down your street, sir,
12:41and through your door, sir.
12:42Please, what is it?
12:43Please be hasty, Mr. Swiveller.
12:45A ring is what it is, sir.
12:47A ring for the fairest finger that ever bought a jewel.
12:50I have no rings.
12:52I have little left of value.
12:54I don't require anything of value.
12:56I mean, I'm not in a position...
12:58I have no rings at all of value.
13:02Otherwise, I might perhaps have...
13:05Nothing, nothing, little, um, thing.
13:09I just...
13:10I fear I could not run to more.
13:13That aunt has let me down in that respect.
13:16Rebecca Swiveller, if you ever knew her.
13:20I doubt you ever did.
13:21One moment, please.
13:28Rebecca Swiveller, where art thou now?
13:31Hm.
13:33But who cares about aunt when there's happiness ahead?
13:37You here?
13:38You should have gone with her.
13:40With Miss Nils, sir?
13:41Well, you didn't say so.
13:42Who?
13:42I am to say everything, am I?
13:44Oh, no, sir.
13:45Am I always to think, think, think?
13:47Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
13:47Well, I have other matters on my mind.
13:50Boy, I have the end of a world to think about.
13:54Go after her.
13:56Directly.
13:56Hey.
13:56Oops, what?
13:59Well, make haste, boy.
14:00Go on, go on, go on.
14:04Oh, don't stop to say how do you do, my friend.
14:07Don't pause for an instant.
14:09Let alone a second.
14:10Let alone a solitary tick.
14:15Convivial chat.
14:16What's the point of a convivial chat when half the city's fallen down and needs propping up?
14:22Brisk line of business, our friends in, eh?
14:26I have this.
14:29I never thought to sell it.
14:31It was the girl's mother's.
14:34No, I kept it for.
14:39How much have you got?
14:41Oh, well, it's Nils by right.
14:44How much?
14:44How much?
15:00Is that all?
15:02Is that all you've got?
15:37You let me alone.
15:38I'll beat you with an iron rod. I'll scratch you with a rusty nail. I'll pinch your eyes.
15:45Do you mind the wharf, you dog?
15:49Stand on your head again, and I'll cut your feet off.
16:30Here.
16:31Is somebody for you?
16:32Who?
16:33Well, I don't know.
16:34Well, ask you, don't, can't you?
16:39What?
16:40Nelly.
16:42Lovely Nelly.
16:44Is it only me, sir?
16:45Only, only.
16:47Come in, my dear.
16:48Is that boy standing on his head again?
16:53No, sir.
16:53No, sir.
16:53He's on his feet.
16:55You mustn't mind him.
16:56He has a way of standing on his head, the dear thing that he is.
16:59We all have our little foibles, eh, Nell?
17:02Yes, sir.
17:03Mm-hmm.
17:04You have a message from me from your nice old grandfather, eh?
17:08Yes, sir.
17:09Mm-hmm.
17:17You know what's inside this letter, Nell?
17:19No, sir.
17:20You sure know?
17:21Indeed, I don't, sir.
17:25Gone already.
17:27Spent already.
17:28In one night.
17:29What's the old fool up to?
17:33Yes.
17:36You're looking very pretty today, Nell.
17:40Charmingly pretty.
17:41Yes, sir.
17:41But I'm in a hurry to get back, sir, for grandfather's anxious when I'm away.
17:44Yes, I'm sure he is.
17:46Indeed, I'm sure he is.
17:49But there's no hurry, Nell.
17:50No hurry at all.
17:54Would you give me an honest answer, Nell?
17:57Honest, sir?
17:58To an honest question.
17:59Of course, sir.
18:03How would you like to be my number two, Nellie?
18:05To be what, sir?
18:06To be my number two.
18:07To be my second Mrs Quilp.
18:09Mrs Quilp the second.
18:10When Mrs Quilp the first is dead and gone.
18:12To be my cherry-cheeked, rosy-lipped little wife, eh?
18:15Would that be nice, Nell?
18:17But Mrs Quilp!
18:18Oh, unhealthy creature.
18:20Say she lives five years or only four.
18:22You'd be just right for me, then.
18:24And I won't be much different myself.
18:27So be a good girl, Nellie.
18:29See if one day you don't come to be Mrs Quilp of Tower Hill, eh?
18:34Ah.
18:37Well, now, you must come to see Mrs Quilp the first for yourself.
18:41She's very fond of you, though not as fond as I am.
18:45I must get back, sir.
18:46He told me to return directly.
18:47I had the answer.
18:48Yes, but you haven't got the answer, then.
18:50You can't have it and won't have it until we travel to Tower Hill.
18:54That's business, Nell.
18:56All in the name of business.
19:00Will you reach me my hat, my dear?
19:20Hey!
19:21Hey!
19:22Hey!
19:22What's he said?
19:23Who's that boy over there?
19:25It's Kit.
19:26It's Kit, the boy who came with me.
19:27You'll stop them, Mr Quilp.
19:28Stop them.
19:29I'll beat them to a pulp.
19:30I'll bruise you to the ass from the car.
19:32Oh!
19:32Oh!
19:34You drop that, or it'll be the worst for you.
19:37You come any closer, I'll drop it on your skull.
19:39Well, you see if I ever offer to strike anyone again,
19:43because they say you're an uglier dwarf than can be seen anywhere for a penny.
19:46And you're saying I'm not your dog?
19:48No.
19:49Then what are you fighting on my wolf for?
19:51Because he says so, not because you ain't.
19:54Then why did you say that?
19:55My master was obliged to do whatever Quilp says!
19:57Because it's the truth, because Quilp told me...
20:00He said what he said because he's a fool.
20:02And you said what you do because you're very wise and clever.
20:05As ugly a dwarf as can be seen anywhere for a penny, eh?
20:09That's very good.
20:10And very true.
20:12Here's the six points for you, Kit.
20:16Always speak the truth, Kit.
20:17At all times, speak the truth.
20:21Lock the counting house door.
20:23And bring me the key.
20:25Come, my dear.
20:27And you too, Kit.
20:29We'll take a boat to Tower Hill.
20:33The trouble is, Kit.
20:35You're probably too wise and clever to live.
20:39Unless you're careful of yourself.
20:58Here's the news.
21:02Here's the new sign.
21:05Here's the new sign.
21:06There's this new sign.
21:08What's wrong with you, Kit?
21:09I'm still going to talk to you now.
21:10You're in love.
21:10You're in love, Kit.
21:10It's my hand.
21:10What's wrong with you?
21:10Get out, sir!
21:13Don't you look and lear at her, sir!
21:15Don't you dare for an instant to look and lear! Get out!
21:20Have yourself, Mrs Quilp.
21:25Sit down, Nell.
21:28She'll stay with you, dear soul, while I write a letter to the nice old grandfather.
21:42Get out of her anything you can about the grandfather.
21:44Worm yourself into her secrets.
21:47What the old man tells her, how they live, what he does with all the money I lent him.
21:50Yes, Quilp, but...
21:51What's the matter now?
21:52Quilp, I'm fond of the child. I don't like to deceive her.
21:55I shall be listening by that door.
21:58If you're not sharp enough, I'll creak the door and will betide you if I have to creak it too
22:03much!
22:25How often you've...
22:26You've come backwards and forwards lately to Mr Quilp, my dear.
22:30I've said so to grandfather a hundred times, ma'am.
22:33And what has he said to that, Nell?
22:35He only sighed and seemed more wretched than ever.
22:38And he used not to be so wretched.
22:41Oh, no. Quite different.
22:44Once we were happy and contented.
22:47Cannot think what a change has fallen on us since...
22:50Oh, my dear, I'm sorry, but I'm sure he'll be as he was again.
22:53Such a long time since...
22:56Since...
22:58Since, dear?
23:00Since he began to go out at nights.
23:02Oh, it'll be as it used to be. I'm sure it will.
23:07Out at nights, you said, dear.
23:11Once we used to sit by the fireside in the evenings.
23:15And he would tell me about my mother.
23:17And how she was so like me when she was a child.
23:21But now, every night and all night long, he is away from home.
23:25Oh, Nell!
23:26I don't know where he goes.
23:28And in the morning, his face is pale as death and his eyes all bloodshot.
23:37Nellie, just to say to your grandfather that I'll see him tomorrow,
23:41or the next day, or the day after.
23:43Tell him I couldn't do that little business for him this morning, Nell.
23:46I'll tell him Daniel Quilt very much regrets.
23:54You, sir! You, Kit creature!
23:57Take good care of her.
23:59Oh, Kit's always kind.
24:01Come, dear.
24:12Uglier dwarf than can be seen anywheres for a penny, eh?
24:16Looking and leering at my wife, eh?
24:18She's my property, you ugly dog.
24:20She's Daniel Quilt's property.
24:21And so's Nellie.
24:23And so's the old gentleman.
24:24They're all my property.
24:25And so will you be, before much longer.
24:34Out all night, eh?
24:36Every night and all night long, eh?
24:39A cunning old fool.
24:41A damnable old cheat and rogue.
24:42He'll end up poor for this.
24:44They're all the same and every one of them will suffer.
24:49Except for Nellie.
24:52Sweet little Nellie.
24:59Father?
25:00Grandfather?
