00:00:01You
00:00:30We've been arriving.
00:00:37Sergeant Stevens!
00:00:38Sir, I want every wounded man taken down the line before it starts to get dark.
00:00:42We bloody were lasting up on them for one day.
00:00:50And did this arrive?
00:00:51Sir.
00:00:53Good news.
00:00:55We've been relieved today by the Demons.
00:00:57The men can finally get some rest.
00:00:59I've got a few days' leave coming to me.
00:01:01What will you do with them, sir?
00:01:02London Fest.
00:01:03Remind myself what real food tastes like.
00:01:05They're north for a couple of days, I suppose.
00:01:09Naturally, there's a girl I want to see while I'm there.
00:01:11Sergeant Hope, sir.
00:01:13Strange, isn't it?
00:01:14Think of our lives just going on as before, while we're here, in this.
00:01:18More than strange, I think of my life at Downton.
00:01:22Seems like another world.
00:01:29We normally have everything done before the family wakes up, but it's all at six and sevens today.
00:01:34I'll go through it with you tomorrow when we're back to normal.
00:01:37I do know how to run a house.
00:01:42Come along.
00:01:46It goes under the epaulette.
00:01:48Sorry, my lord.
00:01:50If I'd known, I'd have asked Mr. Bates about it before he left for London.
00:01:53Because I'll be in uniform a lot of the time in future.
00:01:56Does being Lord Lieutenant mean you're back in the army?
00:01:59Not exactly.
00:02:00The Lord Lute is responsible for the army in the county while the war's on.
00:02:04But no, I'm not back in the army.
00:02:06It appears they don't want me.
00:02:21Good morning.
00:02:22I don't suppose there's any news of Bates.
00:02:24We expect him back any day, my lord.
00:02:26He wrote to Anna that they had the funeral last Monday.
00:02:29William's a good chap, but it's not Bates when it comes to uniforms.
00:02:32I may not be a real soldier, but I think I ought to look like one.
00:02:36Quite, my lord.
00:02:38We don't often see you in here for breakfast.
00:02:41Isabel said she was coming up to help and your mother threatened to look in.
00:02:44No doubt they would love it if they found me still in bed.
00:02:51I don't believe it.
00:02:53Please say it's something nice.
00:02:54General Robertson's invited me to be colonel of the North Riding Volunteers.
00:02:58This is the best bit.
00:02:59It may please you to know that the idea was given to me by General Haig.
00:03:02Well, if Haig's involved, it means I'm back in the army properly.
00:03:05How can that be?
00:03:07You were told you weren't wanted for active service.
00:03:09You can't jump in and out of the army like a jack-in-a-box.
00:03:11I don't see why not.
00:03:12Churchill went back to the front after the Gallipoli business.
00:03:14If he can do it, why shouldn't I?
00:03:17Sybil, are you all right?
00:03:20Sybil, darling.
00:03:21Excuse me.
00:03:23I think I'll just...
00:03:25I've just had more bad news.
00:03:31I do think I'm getting better, don't you?
00:03:33Up to a point, m'lady.
00:03:35If you could just get the clutch right down to the floor.
00:03:37But I am.
00:03:38Not quite, m'lady.
00:03:39It doesn't seem to want to go.
00:03:41I think it wants to if you ask it properly.
00:03:44That's better.
00:03:45You'll be putting me out of a job.
00:03:47Won't the call-up put you all out of your jobs?
00:03:50I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
00:03:54What are you giving them to eat?
00:03:56Not much.
00:03:57They know the money's for the hospital,
00:03:58so they can't expect Belshazzar's feast.
00:04:01I'll make some cheese straws.
00:04:03What's the matter with you?
00:04:04Nothing much.
00:04:06Your dad still won't let me enlist.
00:04:08Your father has no one but you.
00:04:10Of course he doesn't want you to enlist.
00:04:12Who can argue with him?
00:04:13So I stand by while the lads on the farms and in the gardens go to war.
00:04:17Even Thomas is at the front in the medical corps.
00:04:19That'll have come as a nasty shock.
00:04:21You can make fun of him, Mrs Patmore,
00:04:23but he's fighting for his king and country and I'm not.
00:04:26Well, I dare say you won't have long to wait.
00:04:28Well, I hope you're right.
00:04:29Do you?
00:04:31Because I don't.
00:04:32I hope very much that I am wrong.
00:04:36It's kind of you to let us have it here.
00:04:38They'll enjoy it so much more.
00:04:39And you can charge so much more for the tickets.
00:04:42Good morning, Mama.
00:04:43This is very early for you to be up and about.
00:04:45War makes early rises of us all.
00:04:48I thought I would help with the flowers.
00:04:51Oh, Beth, it has plenty, but...
00:04:58You don't mind my taking over the flowers, do you?
00:05:01Cora's flowers always are poor suited to a first communion in southern Italy.
00:05:09Well, what else have you planned for tonight's revels?
00:05:12Anything we can think of that will raise money.
00:05:14Hot-button toast for the countess and tuppence a slice.
00:05:20You drop the cushions on the floor to plump them up.
00:05:23Anna.
00:05:25Ethel, are you settling in?
00:05:27I would be.
00:05:28If Anna had stopped teaching me how to suck eggs.
00:05:31I was head housemaid in my last position.
00:05:33You were senior housemaid out of two in a much smaller house.
00:05:38Are they to come in here tonight?
00:05:40Only at the interval and keep them out of the drawing room.
00:05:42I thought Mr Bates would have been back by now or he could have stood guard.
00:05:48Who is this, Mr Bates?
00:05:49His lordship's ballot.
00:05:51He's been in London because his mother died.
00:05:53Well, everyone talks about him as if he were king.
00:05:56Do they?
00:05:57That's nice to hear.
00:05:58Anna.
00:06:00Help me do battle with this monstrosity.
00:06:05Looks like a creature from the Lost World.
00:06:16You should let William do that.
00:06:19He's got enough on his hands.
00:06:20Getting the uniforms out of muff balls.
00:06:23I must remember to put Anna on alert for dinner tonight.
00:06:26You have to ease up a bit.
00:06:28Or you'll give yourself a heart attack.
00:06:30There's a war on.
00:06:31Things cannot be the same when there's a war on.
00:06:34I do not agree.
00:06:35Keeping up standards is the only way to show the Germans that they will not beat us in the end.
00:06:39Well, give me some warning the next time we're expecting Germans at Downton and I'll see what I can do.
00:06:50Well, we thought we'd come in here for a little talk.
00:06:54Oh, well, I'm sure we won't be disturbed.
00:06:58Please.
00:07:02Well, the thing is, I've had a letter from Matthew.
00:07:07Of course, he doesn't tell me what he's actually doing.
00:07:09No, he wouldn't.
00:07:10But I'm glad he's all right.
00:07:12I miss him.
00:07:13Well, that's the point.
00:07:14You must know he's been down here a few times since the war started.
00:07:18We had heard, Downton is hardly a metropolis.
00:07:22Is he still determined to go back to Manchester when it's all over?
00:07:25He doesn't talk much about life after the war.
00:07:27None of them do.
00:07:28I suppose they don't want to tempt fate.
00:07:30Until now, that is.
00:07:33He writes that he's engaged to be married to a Miss Lavinia Swire.
00:07:44I suppose we all knew it would happen one day.
00:07:46Do you know her?
00:07:47Not yet.
00:07:49Apparently, they met when he was in England last time.
00:07:52It all seems rather hurried.
00:07:54You can't blame them for wanting to live in the present.
00:07:56Anyway, he's been in London on leave, and now he's bringing her here to meet me.
00:08:01He'll be here tonight and tomorrow, then he leaves on Thursday while she stays for a bit.
00:08:05So will you miss the concert?
00:08:07Well, that's up to you.
00:08:09We'd all hoped that he and Mary would sort things out between them,
00:08:12but if that's not to be, then shouldn't we try to get back to normal,
00:08:15even if he's not keen to live in the village?
00:08:19He's still the heir, and you're still his family.
00:08:23I quite agree.
00:08:25We can't know if Matthew will come through it.
00:08:28Either way, I would like to see him, and I want to wish him luck.
00:08:30The trouble is, Mary's back from London today as well.
00:08:33She gets in at five o'clock.
00:08:34Matthew's driving down in Lavinia's car.
00:08:37They won't meet on the train.
00:08:39Oh, that's a relief.
00:08:42I hate Greek drama, you know, when everything happens offstage.
00:08:47But should we tell her not to come?
00:08:48We might still catch her.
00:08:50Isabelle's right.
00:08:51We must use this engagement as a new beginning.
00:08:54You bring our Lieutenant Crawley to the concert and stay for dinner afterwards.
00:08:59I was hoping you'd say that.
00:09:07Well, there you are.
00:09:08I'm just going home, but I'll be back at four.
00:09:11Sybil, my dear, what's the matter?
00:09:18Tom Bellicis has been killed.
00:09:21What a terrible thing.
00:09:23I remember him at Imogen's Ball.
00:09:26He made me laugh out loud just as her uncle was giving a speech.
00:09:32I mean, sometimes it feels as if all the men I ever dance with are dead.
00:09:39Don't feel so useless.
00:09:42Wasting my life while they sacrifice theirs.
00:09:44You've been a tremendous help with the concert.
00:09:46No, I don't mean selling programmes or finding prizes for the Tom Bell.
00:09:51I want to do a real job.
00:09:53Real work.
00:09:58Well, if you're serious, what about being an auxiliary nurse?
00:10:01There's a training college in York.
00:10:03I know I could get you onto a course.
00:10:05It may be something of a rough awakening.
00:10:07Are you ready for that?
00:10:09I mean, have you ever made your own bed, for example, or scrubbed a floor?
00:10:13Oh, Brown, what is it?
00:10:16Mr. Platt is taking her ladyship and Lady Grantham down to the village.
00:10:19She wondered if you'd like to go with them.
00:10:21That's very kind.
00:10:25Go on.
00:10:26What else would I need?
00:10:27Well, if you're serious, what about cooking?
00:10:30Why don't you ask Mrs. Patmore if she could give you one or two basic tips?
00:10:35When you get to York, it might be useful to know a little more than nothing.
00:10:40I want to use her as a maid of all work at the hospital.
00:10:45I suppose it's cheaper when Lady Sibyl can live here for nothing, but it doesn't seem quite right somehow to
00:10:50take advantage.
00:10:51No, it does not.
00:10:53I hear the young men that are being brought in now are very disfigured.
00:10:56How terrible.
00:10:58Limbs missing and faces blown apart.
00:11:01And Lady Sibyl's been nurtured so very gently.
00:11:05And what types would she be working with?
00:11:09Still, you'll know what's best to do.
00:11:13Yes.
00:11:14I certainly will.
00:11:17Well.
00:11:18Well.
00:11:21Well.
00:11:23Where's the batter for the pancakes?
00:11:25It's in the cold liner.
00:11:26Are we having pancakes tonight?
00:11:27Oh yeah, cause like.
00:11:29Upstairs dinner.
00:11:30Crepe Suzette.
00:11:31I've always wanted to try those.
00:11:32Could you save me some?
00:11:33If they don't finish them all?
00:11:35Save you some crepe Suzette?
00:11:38If you don't mind.
00:11:40What are we having?
00:11:40Lamb stew and semolina.
00:11:42Do you eat a lot of stews?
00:11:44Don't you fancy that, do you?
00:11:46Not all the time.
00:11:47Oh, I see.
00:11:49And would you like to sleep in her lady's ship's bedroom while you're at it?
00:11:53Wouldn't mind.
00:11:54I ate sharing a room.
00:11:55I didn't in my last place.
00:11:57There were only two maids in a cook.
00:11:59I'm just saying.
00:12:00And I'll just say if you don't look out.
00:12:06You've got a cheek on your first day.
00:12:09I don't see why.
00:12:10I want the best and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
00:12:13And you think we don't?
00:12:14I think it's hard to change at your age.
00:12:18I don't blame you.
00:12:20But I suppose in the end I want to be more than just a servant.
00:12:28I'm sorry, but if Dr Clarkson needs free labour, I'd prefer him not to find it in my nursery.
00:12:33But Sybil isn't in the nursery.
00:12:35No, and in case you wouldn't notice, she hasn't been there for some time.
00:12:38You know what I mean.
00:12:39Well, no, not really.
00:12:41We can't pretend it's not respectable when every day we're treated to pictures of queens and princesses in Red Cross
00:12:48uniform ladling soup down the throat of some unfortunate.
00:12:52But Sybil won't be ladling soup.
00:12:54She'll have to witness unimaginable horrors.
00:12:56And she's an innocent.
00:12:57Her innocence will protect her.
00:12:59Yeah.
00:12:59For once, I agree with Cousin Isabel.
00:13:03Sybil must be allowed to do her bit like everyone else.
00:13:08What about you, Moseley?
00:13:10Are you ready for the call if it comes?
00:13:12It won't be coming for me, milady.
00:13:14I had a letter from the war office to say I'm not suitable for service.
00:13:17Why not?
00:13:19I really couldn't say, milady.
00:13:21As you can imagine, Moseley's father is beside himself with joy.
00:13:24God moves in a mysterious way.
00:13:26His wonders to perform.
00:13:53Mates, no one told me you were on this train.
00:13:55They didn't know, milady.
00:13:57We'll give you a lift to the house.
00:14:25Why didn't you say you were coming?
00:14:26I didn't know until today.
00:14:36Anna, I borrowed a case from Lady Rosamond.
00:14:38I bought some things while I was in London.
00:14:40Very good, milady.
00:14:41Well, it would be our secret.
00:14:43A surprise.
00:14:44You don't mind, do you?
00:14:46Oh, it's not that I'm hired, milady.
00:14:47And I only need the basics.
00:14:49How to pour an egg, how to make tea.
00:14:51Do you know how to make tea?
00:14:53Not really.
00:14:56You're right.
00:14:57It is a joke, but when I start my course, I don't want it to be a joke.
00:15:01Will you help me?
00:15:02Of course we will, won't we?
00:15:03If you say so.
00:15:06Let's get started.
00:15:08Do you know how to fill a kettle?
00:15:10Everyone knows that.
00:15:16Not everyone, apparently.
00:15:30When can I talk to you?
00:15:32After the concert.
00:15:33Outside in the courtyard.
00:15:35There's bound to be a gap before they start dinner.
00:15:39Are you going up for the concert?
00:15:40Maybe.
00:15:41Can I sit with you?
00:15:41Don't be daft.
00:15:42We've got dinner to make.
00:15:43I've not got time for concerts.
00:15:44I've had a letter from my dad.
00:15:46He won't change his mind.
00:15:48He says he can live with it if I get called up, as there's nothing we can do.
00:15:50But if I enlist and anything happens, he'll never get over it.
00:15:54He loves you.
00:15:55He may love me, but he doesn't own me.
00:15:57He's not being fair.
00:16:01Glad to be back.
00:16:03I'm never sure.
00:16:04When I'm in London, I long for Yorkshire.
00:16:06And when I'm here, I ache to hear my heels clicking on the pavement.
00:16:10I'd forgotten about this nightmare concert.
00:16:12Why didn't you warn me?
00:16:13I'd have come back tomorrow.
00:16:15But you'd have missed Matthew.
00:16:19I was going to tell you, Matthew's on leave and he's in the village, so Papa and I thought
00:16:25it would be a good time to mend our fences.
00:16:27He's coming tonight with Isabel.
00:16:29And his fiancée.
00:16:32What?
00:16:33Edith.
00:16:34I don't know how helpful you're being.
00:16:38Matthew's engaged.
00:16:40He's brought you to Downton to meet his mother.
00:16:44Well, how marvellous.
00:16:47You don't mind?
00:16:48Why should I?
00:16:50We're not going to marry, but I don't want him to spend the rest of his life in a cave.
00:16:54Exactly what Papa and I feel.
00:16:57Please try to be happy for him.
00:16:59Of course I'm happy.
00:17:00Good luck to him.
00:17:03Anyway, there's someone I want you all to meet.
00:17:05Have you ever come across Richard Carlyle?
00:17:08Sir Richard Carlyle?
00:17:10The one with all those horrid newspapers?
00:17:12We met at Cliveden.
00:17:13But how old is he?
00:17:15Old enough not to ask stupid questions.
00:17:17Anyway, I can't wait for you to know him.
00:17:19If only Papa hadn't closed down the chute.
00:17:23Most people have stopped shooting now that the war's on.
00:17:26But I'm sure Papa would be happy to have Sir Richard come and stay.
00:17:30Are you?
00:17:31I shouldn't have thought he was Papa's type at all.
00:17:33You coming?
00:17:34I'll be down in a minute.
00:17:49Are you all right, milady?
00:17:53Oh, Anna.
00:17:55Oh, Anna.
00:18:25It's awfully grand.
00:18:27You'd better get used to it.
00:18:29You'd be more home than one day.
00:18:31I'm not sure our home would ever be quite the way to describe it.
00:18:34My dear fellow, welcome back.
00:18:36It's so very good to see you.
00:18:38May I present Miss Lavinia Swire?
00:18:40How do you do, Grantham?
00:18:41How do you do, Miss Swire?
00:18:42So, that's Mary's replacement.
00:18:46Well, I suppose looks aren't everything.
00:18:49I think she seems rather sweet.
00:18:52I'm afraid meeting us all together must be very intimidating.
00:18:56I do hope so.
00:18:58Yes.
00:18:59I'm going to send Miss Swire back to London.
00:19:14Now, please come this way.
00:19:16It's good to see you.
00:19:19Hello, Miss Swire.
00:19:20I'm Mary Crawley.
00:19:22Of course you are.
00:19:23I mean, I've been longing to meet you because I've heard so much about you from Matthew.
00:19:28That is nice things, I hope.
00:19:30What else would you hear from me, please?
00:19:35I can't say.
00:19:37It's been such a long time.
00:19:38Who knows what you think of me now?
00:19:40I think I'm very glad to see you looking so well.
00:19:46All right, you win.
00:19:48We are at peace again.
00:20:16Have you found something nice?
00:20:18Why in particular?
00:20:20As a welcome home.
00:20:22Mr. Matthew.
00:20:23Hmm?
00:20:24What's the matter?
00:20:25I thought you'd come round to him.
00:20:27Last time he was here, he hadn't broken Lady Mary's heart.
00:20:30Lady Mary broke her own heart.
00:20:34That's if she has a heart to break.
00:20:36I don't think we're ever going to see eye to eye on this, Mrs. Hughes.
00:20:39She refused him when she thought he'd have nothing.
00:20:42And when he was here again, she wanted him back.
00:20:45I thought caution was a virtue.
00:20:47Caution, maybe.
00:20:48Self-interest is not.
00:20:50Perhaps Miss Swire is a gentler person.
00:20:53If you ask me, this Miss Swire, who it may interest you to know is not to be found in
00:20:58Burke's peerage or Burke's landed gentry, has an eye to the main chance.
00:21:03That's not snobbish, I suppose.
00:21:06I like to see things done properly, Mrs. Hughes, and I won't apologise for that.
00:21:10He will excuse me.
00:21:24What is it?
00:21:25A white feather, of course.
00:21:27Coward.
00:21:30Stop this at once.
00:21:32This is neither the time nor the place.
00:21:34These people should be aware that there are cowards among them.
00:21:36Will you please leave?
00:21:37You are the cowards here, not they.
00:22:03I'm in a uniform.
00:22:05Wrong kind.
00:22:06I'm in a uniform.
00:22:10That was horrid, William.
00:22:12I hope you won't let it upset you.
00:22:14No, Your Lady, why are these women so unkind?
00:22:17Of course it is horrid.
00:22:19When heroes are giving their lives every day, it's hard to watch healthy young men do nothing.
00:22:25By the way, Sybil, very good news.
00:22:27They do have a vacancy.
00:22:28It's very short notice because someone dropped out.
00:22:31You'd have to be ready to start on Friday.
00:22:33May I ask what this is about?
00:22:36Cousin Isabel has got me a place on a nursing course in York.
00:22:42I want to work at the hospital.
00:22:45We don't have to talk about it now.
00:22:50She just turned up at my mother's house, not long before she died.
00:22:56So, what does it mean?
00:22:59I think it means, at long last, I'm able to get a divorce.
00:23:08Mr. Bates, is this a proposal?
00:23:13If that's what you want to call it, then you might start calling me John.
00:23:20Why are you sure she'll do it now when she's refused for so long?
00:23:24Mother left me some money.
00:23:26Much more than I thought.
00:23:27Vera's a greedy woman.
00:23:28She won't refuse what I can offer her.
00:23:31Will we have to leave Downton?
00:23:32Not until we want to.
00:23:34I've spoken to his lordship and he will find a cottage for us in the other house.
00:23:38You told him you want to marry me?
00:23:40I did.
00:23:41Before you spoke to me.
00:23:45You don't mind, do you?
00:23:46Of course I mind.
00:23:47In fact, I'd give you a smack if I didn't want to kiss you so much.
00:23:50I could burst.
00:23:52I could burst.
00:24:12Branson says I'm ready for the road.
00:24:14That's not what he told me.
00:24:16How delicious.
00:24:17I love these.
00:24:18How did you and Matthew meet?
00:24:20Oh, in London.
00:24:22My father works in London, so I've always lived there.
00:24:24But I love the country, too.
00:24:25Of course you do.
00:24:27Daddy's a solicitor, like Matthew.
00:24:29My, my.
00:24:30You're very well placed if you're ever in trouble with the law.
00:24:34Did I tell you I've been given a colonel's seat in the North Riding Volunteers?
00:24:38So I'm properly in the army again.
00:24:41Congratulations.
00:24:43Yeah.
00:24:44He won't go with them, will he?
00:24:45When they're called to the front.
00:24:47I hope not, but he seems to think so.
00:24:52What's it been like?
00:24:59You know the thing, Ed.
00:25:04I just can't talk about it.
00:25:08Have you missed us?
00:25:10What do you think?
00:25:18You don't mind my bringing Lavinia?
00:25:20On the contrary.
00:25:22I'm glad.
00:25:23Glad to see you happy.
00:25:26What about you?
00:25:29Are you happy?
00:25:30I think I'm about to be happy.
00:25:32Does that count?
00:25:34Does if you mean it.
00:25:36You'll be the first to know.
00:25:44What are you reading?
00:25:47Photo play about Mabel Norman.
00:25:49She was nothing when she started, you know.
00:25:52Father was a carpenter and they'd no money.
00:25:55Now she's a shining film star.
00:25:57Ethel.
00:25:58I have a message for you from her ladyship.
00:26:00You're to go up and see her now.
00:26:02What?
00:26:03What?
00:26:03In the drawing room, of course.
00:26:04They're all in the drawing room.
00:26:06What have I done wrong?
00:26:07Nothing.
00:26:08Quite the reverse.
00:26:09She's very pleased with the way you've begun
00:26:11and she wants to thank you.
00:26:13Now?
00:26:14Yes, now.
00:26:15She's asked for you.
00:26:16How much longer are you going to keep her waiting?
00:26:26I don't know much about life in the country
00:26:28but I do understand how the law works
00:26:30so I believe I can be helpful to Matthew there.
00:26:32But she'll be immensely helpful.
00:26:34Don't you think so, Mary?
00:26:36Of course.
00:26:41I beg pardon, my lady, for keeping you waiting.
00:26:44What?
00:26:44I'm ever so grateful for your appreciation
00:26:47and I want you to know that it's a privilege to work here.
00:26:54Ethel, what are you doing in here?
00:26:57Her ladyship sent for me.
00:26:59And who gave you this message?
00:27:01Miss O'Brien.
00:27:02She said I wasn't to keep her ladyship waiting.
00:27:04You may go back downstairs now.
00:27:06Thank you, Ethel.
00:27:07Right.
00:27:09Thank you, my lady.
00:27:12Well,
00:27:13do we think she's mad, ill
00:27:15or working for the raptions?
00:27:19Well,
00:27:21she has plenty of time to learn.
00:27:23Cousin Robert will be in charge here for many years.
00:27:26Lavinia will be a lawyer's wife far longer than she'll be a countess.
00:27:30That's if I get through the war in one piece.
00:27:32Of course you will.
00:27:33Don't even think like that.
00:27:36How long are you staying in the village?
00:27:38Just tomorrow.
00:27:39I take the six o'clock train on Thursday.
00:27:41And then you'll be in France?
00:27:43Wherever I'm going.
00:27:45I'm so pleased that we're friends again.
00:27:53I still don't understand why it was funny to make me look a fool.
00:27:57You weren't even there to enjoy it.
00:27:58Well, don't worry.
00:27:59We enjoyed it all right from down here.
00:28:01So, Brian,
00:28:02her ladyship has asked me to take the incident no further.
00:28:05Don't tempt me to disobey.
00:28:07Did I see Lady Sibble in the kitchen yesterday?
00:28:10She wants to learn some cooking.
00:28:12She said she's going to train to be a nurse,
00:28:13so she needs to know how to cook and clean and everything.
00:28:15Has she told her ladyship about this?
00:28:17It's supposed to be a surprise.
00:28:19Mr Carson,
00:28:20it speaks well of Lady Sibble
00:28:21that she wants to help the wounded.
00:28:23Let's not give her away.
00:28:25Why shouldn't she learn how to cook and scrub?
00:28:27She may need it when the war's over.
00:28:29Things are changing.
00:28:30The hurl or tann does.
00:28:32And when they do,
00:28:33I mean to make the most of it.
00:28:37I take it,
00:28:37they ate all the pancakes last night, then.
00:28:40They did.
00:28:48Here you are.
00:28:53What are we aiming at?
00:28:54They'd like us to take a hundred wounded men.
00:28:57Three times the number the hospital was built for.
00:28:59Well, that settles it.
00:29:01We'll have to convert the second day room.
00:29:03So there's to be no convalescence at all?
00:29:05I'm afraid not.
00:29:06Once they can stand,
00:29:07they must go.
00:29:09If only they were somewhere nearer than Farley Hall.
00:29:11I can't get there more than twice a week at the most.
00:29:16Well,
00:29:17should he be doing that?
00:29:19Why not?
00:29:20I only met with his condition.
00:29:22What condition is that?
00:29:23His lungs.
00:29:24Old Lady Grantham told me
00:29:26he's had a lot of trouble with his lungs.
00:29:27And why did she tell you that, particularly?
00:29:30She wanted me to write to the war office.
00:29:32She was anxious to spare him the humiliation of being refused on medical grounds.
00:29:36And who else did she wish you to take under your protection?
00:29:38William Mason.
00:29:39The footman at the big house.
00:29:42He has a bad skin condition, apparently,
00:29:44and hates people to know.
00:29:48She wanted to spare him the physical examination.
00:29:51I'm sure she did.
00:29:55What a wonderland you call that!
00:29:58I mean,
00:29:59I do not fully understand what you've tried to do,
00:30:02my lady.
00:30:02I knew he wasn't supposed to look like this.
00:30:04No, my lady.
00:30:05I would go so far as to say
00:30:07there is no food on the earth
00:30:08that is supposed to look like that.
00:30:14Why does everything go so lumpy?
00:30:17Tell you what,
00:30:18chuck it out and we'll start again.
00:30:24I don't think we should sell your mother's house.
00:30:27Not yet.
00:30:29We could rent it out.
00:30:31Then we can save.
00:30:33When I have some time off,
00:30:34I'll go up to London and get it ready.
00:30:37Maybe I can come with you.
00:30:40We could do it together.
00:30:44I've got an idea
00:30:45that a bit later on,
00:30:49if we want to...
00:30:51If we want to start a family.
00:30:53I thought when the time is right,
00:30:56we might sell.
00:30:57And we could buy a small hotel,
00:31:00just a little one.
00:31:03Maybe near here.
00:31:04Then we could work together
00:31:07and have the children with us.
00:31:10What is it?
00:31:12Nothing.
00:31:12It's just...
00:31:14In my whole life,
00:31:15I never thought I could be as happy
00:31:17as I am at this moment.
00:31:23Mmm.
00:31:29Mm.
00:31:30Mm.
00:31:31Mm.
00:31:38Mm.
00:31:39Mm.
00:31:40Mm.
00:31:40Mm.
00:31:56Don't worry.
00:31:57I haven't come to undo your good work of the other night.
00:32:00You must have been up before the servants.
00:32:01They were rather surprised to see me.
00:32:05I wanted to give you this.
00:32:08It's my lucky charm.
00:32:10I've had it always.
00:32:11So you must promise to bring it back without a scratch.
00:32:16Wouldn't you need it?
00:32:17Not as much as you.
00:32:20So look after it, please.
00:32:23Try not to be a hero if that's what you're afraid of.
00:32:26Just come back safe and sound.
00:32:30Did you have a happy time yesterday?
00:32:34Showed Lavinia the places I liked most.
00:32:36Give her a few memories.
00:32:40Mary, if I don't come back...
00:32:41No, if I don't.
00:32:43Then do remember how very glad I am that we made up when we had the chance.
00:32:47I mean it.
00:32:49You send me off to war, a happy man.
00:32:55Will you do something for me?
00:32:56Will you...
00:32:58Will you look after Mother?
00:33:01If anything happens?
00:33:02Of course we will.
00:33:03But it won't.
00:33:04And Lavinia.
00:33:06She's young and she'll find someone else.
00:33:08I hope she does anyway.
00:33:11Until she does.
00:33:15Goodbye, then.
00:33:19And such good luck.
00:33:22Goodbye, Mary.
00:33:23God bless you.
00:33:27God bless you.
00:33:33God bless you.
00:33:39God bless you.
00:34:05Lady Mary was very much part of the story, I can assure you.
00:34:09How do you know?
00:34:10Well, you see, I've worked for Lady Flint.
00:34:12Ethel!
00:34:14I hope you've offered our visitor some tea.
00:34:17I'll go now, Stacey.
00:34:21What is the first law of service?
00:34:23We do not discuss the business of this house with strangers.
00:34:27But she's not a stranger.
00:34:28She's Mr Bates' wife.
00:34:30Has anyone told him she's here?
00:34:43So you're Anna?
00:34:45I am.
00:34:49You're the one I went to call on my late lamented mother-in-law.
00:34:53Yes, I did.
00:34:54I know you did.
00:35:02Sorry to keep you waiting, Vera.
00:35:05I was up in the attics sorting out some cupboards.
00:35:08Don't worry.
00:35:09I've been having a nice time here with Ethel and Miss Smith.
00:35:13Mr Bates, Ethel told me about your visitor, so I've had the tea put in my sitting room.
00:35:19I thought you might take Mrs Bates in there.
00:35:22That's very thoughtful.
00:35:23It is, but then you're all so kind.
00:35:27I'm beginning to understand why my Batesy's got so spoiled.
00:35:37I'm sorry to trouble you, my lady.
00:35:39What is it, Carson?
00:35:41Something has been going on, and I don't feel quite easy that you've not been made aware of it.
00:35:46Goodness.
00:35:47What is this dark secret?
00:35:50Lady Sybil has spent the last two days in the kitchens.
00:35:53What?
00:35:54She asked Mrs Patmore for some cooking lessons.
00:35:57Now, steady.
00:35:58Even the most experienced cook can burn themselves if they're not careful.
00:36:01Do you think it's ready?
00:36:03I know it's ready.
00:36:04Go on, you don't want to spoil it.
00:36:06It seems she's made a cake for your ladyship as a surprise.
00:36:11But I'm uneasy with surprises at the best of times,
00:36:13and I wonder if the whole exercise is entirely appropriate.
00:36:17Ta-da!
00:36:20I'm not comfortable with this, my lady.
00:36:22I'm not comfortable at all.
00:36:25I was worried about Lady Sybil, but I'm not worried anymore.
00:36:30So you don't mind, my lady?
00:36:33No.
00:36:36I do not mind.
00:36:38And I'm very grateful to you.
00:36:42And Carson, the cake will be a surprise whether you approve or not.
00:36:46So please don't give me away.
00:36:57Sit down.
00:36:58I don't want to sit down.
00:37:01Suit yourself.
00:37:05Look, I'm not saying it's all your fault for how things were between us.
00:37:09But I couldn't go back to that.
00:37:10I'll take the blame.
00:37:12I'll go to some hotel in Moulton with a tart.
00:37:16So why hold on?
00:37:19Because I tried it on my own and I don't like it.
00:37:22You've got money now.
00:37:24You'd be comfortable.
00:37:27You're out of your mind.
00:37:29What makes you think that I would allow that to happen?
00:37:31Went to prison for me once.
00:37:36I must say, this is very good.
00:37:39Does Lord Grantham have his own blend?
00:37:41Is that all?
00:37:42Not quite.
00:37:45You see, if you don't come back to me, I'm going to the newspapers with a cracking story.
00:37:49And I'd like to bet the Granthams won't survive it.
00:37:51Oh?
00:37:53And what nonsense is this?
00:37:55The nonsense I heard when I used your name to get a job with Lady Flincher, his lordship's cousin.
00:37:59I know who Lady Flincher is.
00:38:01When I arrived, her maid asked me if it was true.
00:38:03By Lady Mary Crawley and the Turkish diplomat.
00:38:05They thought I'd know, you see.
00:38:06Being your wife.
00:38:07I hope you told them you knew nothing about it.
00:38:13As if.
00:38:15I said, why don't you tell me what you think you know, and I'll tell you if it's true.
00:38:21Goodness me.
00:38:23Was my patience rewarded?
00:38:25The public's bored with the war, you see.
00:38:28Like gossip.
00:38:29And a diplomat dying in the bed of an earl's unmarried daughter.
00:38:32Well, that takes a ticket for the tale of the year.
00:38:35It's a pack of lies.
00:38:36I assume that's loyalty and not ignorance.
00:38:39Because, you see, I heard that Lady Mary needs her maid to help her carry him.
00:38:42And yes, you've guessed it.
00:38:44Your precious Anna's going to figure in the story, too.
00:38:46Not to worry too much.
00:38:48It's not a criminal offence, is it?
00:38:51Just a social one.
00:38:55You bitch.
00:38:56Please, be my guest.
00:38:59But then you must excuse me while I run into town and have it photographed.
00:39:12What do you want from me?
00:39:15Firstly, I'll hand in your notice.
00:39:17Tonight, I'll put up at the pub in the village.
00:39:19And what reason do I give?
00:39:21You don't need a reason.
00:39:22Just tell them that you're going.
00:39:24And then tomorrow, we head back to London.
00:39:26And stay in your mother's house for the time being until we get ourselves sorted.
00:39:30And in case you're wondering, whatever my future plans may be,
00:39:35they will involve you.
00:39:51Bates, when you first came here, I fought to keep you.
00:39:54Everyone was against me.
00:39:55Everyone, from her ladyship to Carson.
00:39:57They thought I was mad.
00:39:58But I said to them, after all that we've been through together, Bates and I,
00:40:01I owe him my loyalty.
00:40:03I appreciate that, my lord, but...
00:40:04But what?
00:40:05But loyalty doesn't matter to you.
00:40:07It does matter, my lord.
00:40:08Not enough to make you change your mind.
00:40:09Not even enough to make you stay until I've found a replacement.
00:40:11I can't.
00:40:12You won't take any more money off me.
00:40:14You leave empty-handed.
00:40:15I don't want money, my lord.
00:40:18I'm sorry, Bates.
00:40:19That was a low shot.
00:40:20Of course, you'll have whatever is owing to you.
00:40:25I thought we were friends, that's all.
00:40:28I thought we'd crossed the great divide successfully.
00:40:31Well, well.
00:40:33I've had my say.
00:40:34It's your life.
00:40:35But you've disappointed me, Bates.
00:40:37I cannot remember being more disappointed than any man.
00:40:42I don't believe it.
00:40:44You say my life is over and your wife will collect your first thing and that's it.
00:40:48Have you mentioned this to anyone else?
00:40:49Only Mr Carson and Mrs Hughes.
00:40:53The others can find out where I've gone.
00:40:54I know you've not told me the real reason.
00:40:56You're wrong.
00:40:57Vera has reminded me that I'm a married man.
00:40:59That I must give my vows another chance.
00:41:00I had no right to involve you in my life.
00:41:02Yes, but you see, that's just what I don't agree with.
00:41:04You had every right.
00:41:05I know you.
00:41:07You're doing something gallant here, making a sacrifice for my honour, but I don't want
00:41:10you to.
00:41:11I don't care.
00:41:12Don't you understand?
00:41:13I don't care what people say.
00:41:15I'd live and sing with you.
00:41:17But if she's threatening to ruin me, then let her.
00:41:19It's nothing to me.
00:41:21The only ruin that I recognise is to be without you.
00:41:23Forget me.
00:41:24I'd be happy.
00:41:24Please.
00:41:25I couldn't.
00:41:26Not ever.
00:41:30You should.
00:41:31And you must.
00:41:34I am nothing.
00:41:49William, I thought everyone had gone up.
00:41:52I'm just looking for that magazine I thought we were reading.
00:41:57I hope you'd notice I'm not scared of electricity any more.
00:42:00Well, not much.
00:42:02I couldn't touch a switch when it were only upstairs, but I've got used to it now.
00:42:06I hate to see you like this.
00:42:09Even though I'm a dirty coward?
00:42:11You're not.
00:42:11Not to me.
00:42:13Well, why don't I enlist?
00:42:15I could.
00:42:16I know I promised my dad, but he's not my owner.
00:42:19He's not the law.
00:42:22Am I frightened?
00:42:24Is that it, honestly?
00:42:25Don't be so hard on yourself.
00:42:27No one wants to go to war.
00:42:31I wish you'd cheer you up.
00:42:33Please.
00:42:34I'd do anything to cheer you up.
00:42:36Like what?
00:42:40Like this.
00:42:50You just feel sorry for me.
00:42:52William, I've kissed you.
00:42:53You've wanted me to long enough.
00:42:55Well, now I have.
00:42:56Enjoy it.
00:42:58Does this mean you'll be my girl?
00:43:00Daisy, because if you were my girl, I know I could tackle anything.
00:43:18We were supposed to be at rest for ten days, at least.
00:43:21Order's arrived this morning, sir.
00:43:23Things only hit bad, so they're out.
00:43:26And we're in.
00:43:27I've been shelling the trench since we got here.
00:43:29Anybody heard?
00:43:31Rankin's dead.
00:43:32And Kent.
00:43:33And Corporal Wright was here.
00:43:35Thank God the stretch of bearers were there.
00:43:37Let's see what the damage is now.
00:43:38Sir.
00:43:47All right.
00:43:48Hold me, sir.
00:43:49Sir.
00:44:05Thomas?
00:44:08It is Thomas, isn't it?
00:44:09Corporal Barrel.
00:44:10Now, Mr. Crowley.
00:44:13You'll never guess where I've just been.
00:44:34Where's Anna?
00:44:35She's not feeling very well today, your leadership.
00:44:38I've taken over for the time being.
00:44:40Oh, that's so kind of you.
00:44:42Just make sure Lady Sybil Pax thinks she can get in and out of without a maid.
00:44:47Oh, I don't need that.
00:44:48I'd never wear it.
00:44:50But you must have something decent.
00:44:52Suppose you're invited to dinner.
00:44:53I know this is hard for you to grasp, but I'm not there to go out to dinner.
00:44:56I'm there to learn.
00:44:57Take one, just in case.
00:45:00We'll miss you.
00:45:02Don't be silly.
00:45:03It's only two months.
00:45:04I'll come home if I can.
00:45:05Why don't I drive you?
00:45:07She's taking enough chance with her life as it is.
00:45:09Oh, Granny.
00:45:11What is this driving mania?
00:45:13It'll be useful.
00:45:15They won't let a healthy man drive us around for much longer.
00:45:18And if Sybil can be a nurse, why can't I be a chauffeur?
00:45:21Well, I shall leave you.
00:45:23Well, I have been summoned by Cousin Isabel for tea.
00:45:27Goodbye, Sybil.
00:45:29And good luck with it all.
00:45:31Thank you for being such a sport.
00:45:33It's a big step you're taking, dear.
00:45:36But war deals out strange tasks.
00:45:40Remember your great-aunt Roberta?
00:45:42What about her?
00:45:45She loaded the guns at Lucknow.
00:45:48I'll come with you.
00:45:50I'll tell William to fetch the bags.
00:45:54The first of you to leave the nest.
00:45:58Poor Mama.
00:45:59She always feels these things so dreadfully.
00:46:01That's her American blood.
00:46:03I'm so glad we've settled everything with Cousin Matthew.
00:46:06Aren't you, Mary?
00:46:07Oh, please stop treading on eggshells.
00:46:09I've other fish to fry.
00:46:37I make no apology.
00:46:39It would be a terrible thing if poor old Mr. Moseley's son were killed, wouldn't it, Moseley?
00:46:45I'm sure it would, but...
00:46:46And then I heard William's father would be left on his own if anything happened to the
00:46:52boy.
00:46:53And what would it become of Carson if the last of his staff were to go?
00:46:57That's not the point.
00:46:58Do you want Moseley to die?
00:47:00Of course I don't.
00:47:01I don't want my own son to die either, but this is a war, and we must be in it
00:47:05together.
00:47:06High and low, rich and poor.
00:47:07There can be no special cases, because every man at the front is a special case to someone.
00:47:13Mrs. Trolley is right.
00:47:14I understand your motives, Lady Grantham, and I do not criticise them.
00:47:19But I shall write to the Ministry at once, correcting the misinformation.
00:47:23Good day.
00:47:24I will see myself.
00:47:26Moseley, you understand why I said what I did?
00:47:29Indeed, I do, ma'am.
00:47:32You won't be called up at once.
00:47:35Not while there are younger men to be taken.
00:47:37But they'll get you in the end, Moseley.
00:47:40And you can blame Mrs. Crawley when they do.
00:47:46I wish you'd stop working for one minute.
00:47:50At least put the light on, or you'll strain your eyes.
00:47:54It's getting dark so early now.
00:47:58Has she gone?
00:48:00She has.
00:48:01So, we've lost Mr. Bates and Lady Civil in one day.
00:48:05I can't believe it.
00:48:07I suppose I'll have to look after his lordship now, on top of everything else.
00:48:11And I don't want any jokes about broomsticks and sweeping the floor.
00:48:16His lordship's got his regimental dinner in Richmond tonight.
00:48:18That means he'll be in the full fig.
00:48:20You'll manage.
00:48:22You know, when Mr. Bates first came to this house, I thought he could never do the work.
00:48:26But now I can't imagine the place without him.
00:48:29Did you see this coming? Because I didn't.
00:48:32I have a confession.
00:48:34I let them have their tea in my sitting room.
00:48:36That was nice of you.
00:48:37It was quite nice, but I had my reasons.
00:48:43There's a grating on the wall, which means you can hear what's being said in the room.
00:48:49Now, if I was a gentleman, I wouldn't want to know.
00:48:52But you're not.
00:48:54Fortunately.
00:49:19It'll be hard to let you go.
00:49:21My last link with him.
00:49:24Not as hard as it is for me.
00:49:27Branson...
00:49:27I know I shouldn't say it, but I can't keep it in any longer.
00:49:29I wish you would.
00:49:31I've told myself and told myself you're too far above me.
00:49:33But things are changing.
00:49:35When the war is over, the world won't be the same place as it was when it started.
00:49:38And I'll make something of myself, I promise.
00:49:39I know you will.
00:49:40Then bet on me.
00:49:42And if your family cast you off, it won't be forever.
00:49:45They'll come around.
00:49:47And until they do, I promise to devote every waking minute to your happiness.
00:49:54I'm terribly flattered.
00:49:57Don't say that.
00:49:58Why not?
00:50:00Because flattered is a word posh people use when they're getting ready to say no.
00:50:05That sounds more like you.
00:50:08Please don't make fun of me.
00:50:10No.
00:50:11It costs me all I've got to say these things.
00:50:20Right.
00:50:22I'll go.
00:50:24I'll hand in my notice and I won't be there when you get back.
00:50:26No, don't do that.
00:50:27I must.
00:50:28They won't let me stay when they've heard what I said.
00:50:32They won't hear.
00:50:34Not from me.
00:50:46Leah, there must be more to life than this.
00:50:55You all right, Corporal?
00:51:00I think so.
00:51:02Yeah, more or less.
00:51:13You won't believe it back on the raccoon truck.
00:51:16I thought, medical court, not much danger there.
00:51:20How wrong can one man be?
00:51:23Yeah.
00:51:25I think it comes down to luck.
00:51:27If the bullet's got your name on it, there's nothing you can do.
00:51:31If not, thank God you won't.
00:51:40Get these bodies away!
00:51:43Come on, Google Bear!
00:51:45Come on, Google Bear!
00:51:52I cannot tell you how pleased I am to be here tonight, sir.
00:51:55We are very pleased to have you here, Grandfather.
00:51:58You see, just to know I'm with you all, to sense that I belong here.
00:52:03It's as simple as this.
00:52:04I no longer feel like a fraud.
00:52:10Mr. Molesley, what are you doing here?
00:52:12I was waiting to see you, Doctor.
00:52:14How can I help?
00:52:15It's just I was wondering whether you'd written that letter, the one you spoke of this afternoon.
00:52:20To the War Office?
00:52:21Not yet.
00:52:22I'm sorry you were involved in all that.
00:52:24I should have checked with you first before I interfered.
00:52:26Well, that's just easy.
00:52:27I think if you had checked with me, you'd have found exactly what Lady Grantham described.
00:52:31I don't...
00:52:32I have trouble with my lungs, and I get so breathless sometimes, and I've noticed it's
00:52:41getting worse.
00:52:47They haven't written to William yet, the Ministry, I mean, but they have discharged me.
00:52:54Why don't you just make extra work for them to have to fail me all over again?
00:52:59Very well.
00:53:00I shall correct my statement as regards William, but make no mention of you.
00:53:05Thank you, Doctor.
00:53:07It's all right.
00:53:08But Molesley, I hope you will help the war effort in other ways.
00:53:15Yes.
00:53:18When might the regiment be wanted, sir?
00:53:20The talk at dinner suggested it would be soon.
00:53:23Oh, pretty soon, I'd say.
00:53:24Yes.
00:53:26Well, I'm as ready now as I'll ever be.
00:53:29For what?
00:53:30To go to France with the regiment.
00:53:33Why would you do that?
00:53:34Because I'm their colonel, of course.
00:53:36But there must be some use for me over there.
00:53:38My dear fellow, we're not as heartless as that.
00:53:42The position's only an honorary one.
00:53:44Nobody expects you to go to war.
00:53:46An honorary one.
00:53:47We thought you'd cheer things up a bit to have the Lord Lieutenant at our table.
00:53:51And so it does.
00:53:52We're very glad to welcome you here.
00:53:55I see.
00:53:56I see.
00:53:57We old codgers have our work cut out for us, keeping spirits high at home.
00:54:01Someone must?
00:54:02Indeed, sir.
00:54:03Wait, was that a taxi cab?
00:54:05It's catching before I go on.
00:54:07I see.
00:54:08Thanks, sir.
00:54:09Thanks, sir.
00:54:09Thanks, sir.
00:54:11Thanks, sir.
00:54:14Thanks, sir.
00:54:15The lady said we've got off all right in the end.
00:54:17I'm afraid we have to admit she knows what she wants.
00:54:20Yes.
00:54:21She soon does.
00:54:22I don't suppose the war will leave any of us alone by the time it's done.
00:54:26I got a letter from Thomas the other day.
00:54:29He writes that when he thinks about how things used to be, it seems like a dream.
00:54:34It's not much more than two years ago, but he says it might as well be a century.
00:54:38So you hear from Thomas?
00:54:39Is he well?
00:54:41Please give him my regards.
00:54:43He's well enough, my lady.
00:54:45I don't think he mind coming home.
00:54:48Oh, I wish he could, O'Brien.
00:54:51Of course, if Bates hadn't been so bloody selfish, he would have let us plan for his departure properly.
00:54:57Your logic, I have information that I've no proper claim to.
00:55:02Well, what is it?
00:55:03Well, if your lordship can assure me that you'll keep it to yourself...
00:55:07I promise, Carson, you can drop the last veil.
00:55:11Well, I feel it's only right to tell you that Mr Bates' leaving was not selfish, quite the reverse.
00:55:18Felt selfish to me.
00:55:20As for the wretched Anna, a bit dyson with dishonest promises.
00:55:24Mr Bates left because, had he not done so, his wife was planning to engulf this house in scandal.
00:55:31Scandal?
00:55:34What scandal?
00:55:35The point is, my lord, Mrs Bates would have made Downton notorious.
00:55:38The price of her silence was her husband's return.
00:55:42But I must know what story she was planning to tell.
00:55:44I'm sorry, my lord.
00:55:45I could not speak of it without injuring you and betraying myself.
00:55:49But you are saying that Bates fell on his sword to protect the reputation of my family.
00:56:08Ethel?
00:56:09What are you doing?
00:56:10See into the plugs for the night.
00:56:12What?
00:56:13Polishing the electric plugs and checking them for vapors.
00:56:16And why are you doing this?
00:56:18Because you were too busy.
00:56:20She said you usually did it, but could I manage it tonight?
00:56:23And she, I take it, would be Miss O'Brien.
00:56:28Go to bed, Ethel.
00:56:29Next time she gives you an order, ask me first.
00:56:40Is anything the matter?
00:56:43Nothing.
00:56:44Except that today has shown me I am not only a worthless man, but also a bad-tempered and ungrateful
00:56:49one.
00:56:50But we all know that.
00:56:55Can I help?
00:57:00I wonder how Sybil's feeling.
00:57:03The war's reaching its long fingers into Downton and scattering our chicks.
00:57:07But I'm glad we made peace with Matthew.
00:57:09I agree.
00:57:10Let us thank Sir Richard Carlyle for distracting Mary at just the right moment.
00:57:15By the way, she wants him to come and stay so we can all meet him.
00:57:18She wants us to invite a hawker of newspaper scandal to stay as a guest in this house.
00:57:24It's lucky I have a sense of irony.
00:57:36Not you, too.
00:57:50What's the matter?
00:57:52Well, I ask you, don't care.
00:57:55Ethel, perhaps if you stop going on about all the marvellous things you're going to do when you leave service.
00:58:03But you've got to have dreams.
00:58:05Don't you have any dreams?
00:58:07Of course I do.
00:58:09Big dreams.
00:58:13It's just that I know now they won't be coming true.
00:58:28What do you want?
00:58:29I think I left my book in here.
00:58:37Is that all?
00:58:38You were praying.
00:58:40Don't be ridiculous.
00:58:42You were praying?
00:58:43What were you praying for?
00:58:45Please go.
00:58:45I'm tired.
00:58:47I'm tired.
00:58:52I'm tired.
00:59:07Dear Lord, I don't pretend to have much credit with you.
00:59:13I'm not even sure that you're there.
00:59:17But if you are, and if I've ever done anything good, I beg you to keep him safe.
00:59:50You look very comfortable there, Corporal.
00:59:55Would you like some, sir?
00:59:58I've got condensed milk and sugar.
01:00:00I won't ask how you manage that.
01:00:06Go on, sir.
01:00:11That's nectar.
01:00:13Are you sure you can spare it?
01:00:15Gladly.
01:00:16If we could talk about the old days and forget about all this for a minute or two.
01:00:22Do you ever hear from anyone?
01:00:24Oh, yes.
01:00:24Miss O'Brien keeps me informed.
01:00:27Lady Edith's driving.
01:00:28Lady Sybil's training is a nurse.
01:00:33Miss O'Brien tells me the hospital's busier than ever with the wounded coming in.
01:00:38Is that true?
01:00:39It certainly is.
01:00:40They had a concert when I was there to raise extra funds.
01:00:46I'm curious, sir.
01:00:48Do you think I could ever get a transfer back to the hospital scene as it's war work?
01:00:54Well, you'd have to be sent home from the front first.
01:00:58And then you might have to pull a few strings.
01:01:04Thank you for that.
01:01:06Thank you very much.
01:01:08What would my mother say?
01:01:11Me entertaining the future Earl of Grantham for tea?
01:01:15War has a way of distinguishing between the things that matter and the things that don't.
01:01:32War has a lot of sleep.
01:01:42Let's go.
01:01:45Oh, God.
01:01:52Let's go.
01:02:33Thank you for my deliverance.
