00:08Am I ready?
00:09Only you can answer that, sir.
00:12They're going to chuck everything they've got of us.
00:15And we shall have to chuck it back, won't we, sir?
00:19Quite right.
00:32Now, there's no point in pretending that this is going to be easy.
00:36How are you, Thompson? You're checking that cold?
00:37I'm all right, sir. Thank you.
00:38Good man.
00:40We're nearly there, chaps.
00:41Just hold fast.
00:43It won't be long now.
00:44We're with you, sir.
00:46I know you are, Wakefield.
00:47I can't tell you how much lighter that makes the task.
01:00Bye, son.
01:02Let's burn it!
01:29Daisy, whatever's the matter with you?
01:31Someone walked over my grave.
01:51I'm so sorry.
01:53What happened?
01:54I don't know. I suddenly felt terribly cold.
02:01I won't be sorry when this one's out of me!
02:03I won't be sorry when this one's out of me!
02:38My lady.
02:39My lady, wake up.
02:41What else?
02:42You better come downstairs.
02:44I didn't know what else to do when I saw the telegram.
02:47I knew it was urgent.
02:49So, I hope it was right.
02:50Quite right.
02:52Mrs Crawley won't mind my opening it.
02:54The main thing is, he's not dead.
02:56Not yet, anyway.
02:57They've patched him up.
02:58They're bringing him to the hospital at Downton.
03:00When do they think he'll get here?
03:01He doesn't say.
03:02But how do we contact Isabel?
03:04How will she get back?
03:05One thing at a time.
03:06I'll ring the war office in the morning.
03:07Maybe they know she's out there.
03:09Perhaps she's with him now.
03:10They wouldn't have sent a telegram here and she'd have rung.
03:12No, it's the usual boss.
03:13Usual mess up, I'm afraid.
03:16Beg pardon, my lord.
03:17But we're all very anxious to know the news.
03:20Yes, of course.
03:26It appears that a few days ago, Captain Crawley was wounded.
03:31It's serious, I'm afraid.
03:32But he's alive and on his way home to the hospital in the village.
03:35There's life, there's hope.
03:37What about William?
03:37Is he all right?
03:39I'll find out what I can tomorrow.
03:40I'm not sure there's much more we can do tonight.
03:42William's father would have had a telegram if anything had happened.
03:44I'll drive over in the morning.
03:57Whatever you discover, tell me.
04:00Don't keep anything back.
04:26Lady Edith's back.
04:30William was caught in it.
04:33He's gone to some hospital in Leeds.
04:35I'm very sorry.
04:37I might have known.
04:39It couldn't be the only household left untouched.
04:42Will he come through it?
04:43Her ladyship said it sounded bad.
04:46But we don't know more than that.
04:49Can you walk with me to the church this afternoon?
04:52If you want me to.
04:53Because I'd like to say a prayer for them.
04:55For both of them.
04:57We only cater for officers.
04:59Dr Clarkson, I am no Jacobin revolutionary, nor do I seek to overthrow the civilised world.
05:05We just need one bed for a young man from this village.
05:10And if it were within my power, you should have it.
05:13Sir, you don't understand.
05:15William's father cannot afford to leave his farm and move to Leeds.
05:18I'm very sorry.
05:20Really.
05:21But this is a military hospital, and it's not up to me to challenge the order of things.
05:24I'll nurse him.
05:25I'm happy to do it.
05:26It wouldn't add to your workload.
05:28If I were to break the rule for you, how many others do you think would come forward to plead
05:32for their sons?
05:33The answer is and must be no.
05:39It always happens.
05:41When you give these little people power, it goes to their heads like strong drink.
05:48I'm sorry for him.
05:51I don't mind Captain Crawley.
05:53He's a better man than most of them.
05:54And William, too.
05:55He's not a bad lad, whatever you say.
05:59I wish I'd not written that letter to Bates' wife, telling her he's back here.
06:02What's that got to do with it?
06:04With everything else going on, I know she'll come up here and make trouble.
06:07Don't blame me.
06:08It wasn't my idea.
06:11Any news?
06:13Only that the doctor won't let William come to the village.
06:16He never.
06:17It's for officers only, he says.
06:19This poor father staying there with him, spending money he's not got, and travelling miles to do it.
06:24It's not right.
06:25Right bloody well, is it?
06:29Well, I'm a working class lad, and so is he.
06:32And I get fed up, seeing how our lot always gets shafted.
06:38I thought I'd take some things down to the hospital, and I can wait and sit with him when he
06:42arrives.
06:43I've read somewhere that it's very important not to leave them alone when they're first wounded, so no sign goes
06:48unnoticed.
06:49They can't spare a nurse to watch over every man, so that's what I can do.
06:54Your mother's written to Lavinia.
06:57Good.
06:58Yes.
06:59I'm glad someone's thought of that.
07:01She must stay here and not be at Isabel's by herself.
07:09What?
07:12Nothing.
07:16You should have had a church wedding.
07:18Don't be silly.
07:20No, I mean it.
07:22You in a white dress, me looking like a fool.
07:26I'd rather have the right man than the right wedding.
07:32Well, it won't be long now.
07:35How long?
07:38Hard to say, but don't worry.
07:41A decree in I saw him into a safe.
07:43A decree absolute's only a formality.
07:47I'm just sorry it costs so much.
07:49She could have had my shoes and the shirt off my back, if it would only make her go away
07:54for good.
07:55She's gone now.
08:00I suppose I could feel guilty in my happiness.
08:05Knowing the troubles they're all facing back at home.
08:09But in another way, it only makes me more grateful.
08:16Let's pray.
08:18Let's pray together.
08:34Don't worry.
08:35The old lady will sort something out.
08:37Now she's got the bit between her teeth.
08:39I'm not worried.
08:39Not in that way.
08:41I feel sorry for William, that's all.
08:42Well, of course you do.
08:43We all do.
08:44I expect you're glad now that you left your Noddy's little daydream.
08:48And I'm not glad.
08:50If he'll have led him up the garden path with all that nonsense.
08:54And I'm ashamed.
08:56I'm so ashamed.
09:02Oh.
09:06Hello.
09:08Mrs Bates, isn't it?
09:10What do you want?
09:12Don't sound inhospitable, Mrs Patmore.
09:14And I've only ever known a welcome in this house.
09:18Yes, yes.
09:19The minister.
09:22Well, how many Marquises of Fincher are there?
09:27Is this an instrument of communication or torture?
09:30Well, it's...
09:32Hello?
09:35Shrimpy?
09:37It's Aunt Violet.
09:40Very well, very...
09:41And Susan?
09:45Good.
09:47I won't beat about the bush.
09:49Who might we know on the board of Leeds General Infirmary?
09:55Excuse me.
09:56It is not settled.
09:57It wasn't settled by me that you'd come back here and take up with your flue.
10:00It was he again.
10:01As far as I recall, that was never settled.
10:03How did you find out he was here?
10:04Wouldn't you like to know?
10:05What does it matter?
10:06Just say what you want.
10:08Spit it out.
10:08You thought you got the better of me.
10:10But you were wrong.
10:11I never...
10:11I'm going to sell my story anyway about Lady Mary.
10:13About the Turkish gentleman.
10:14About Miss Smith here.
10:15It's got nothing to do with me.
10:16Well, that's not what I heard.
10:19You gave your word.
10:20I gave you the money and you gave me your word.
10:22Well, guess what?
10:24I was lying.
10:25If I hadn't come back to Downton, back to Anna, would you have stuck to our agreement?
10:31Well, we never know now, will we?
10:34You're angry because I'm happy.
10:36Maybe.
10:38But you won't be happy long.
10:52Can you drive me to the hospital?
10:54Aren't you needed here?
10:56I've already taken Lady Mary down.
10:58I know.
10:59I want to be with her when Captain Corley arrives.
11:01They can manage without me here for a while.
11:03She's still in love with them.
11:05I don't want to talk about it.
11:07Why?
11:08Because I'm the chauffeur?
11:10No, because she's my sister.
11:13You're good at hiding your feelings, aren't you?
11:15All of you.
11:17Much better than we are.
11:19Perhaps.
11:21But we do have feelings and don't make the mistake of thinking we don't.
11:34And has Lord Flincher's order been acted on?
11:38It has.
11:39There's an ambulance waiting.
11:40Although no one quite knows how you managed it.
11:44What exactly is the matter with him?
11:47His body sustained too much damage.
11:49He cannot recover.
11:51But he looks so normal.
11:53Appearances can be cruelly deceptive.
11:55The force of the blast has fatally injured his lungs.
11:58But if he's lived this long?
12:00Would it make any difference if he stayed here?
12:02Or are you just making him as comfortable as can be?
12:05That's it.
12:05There's nothing more we can do for him.
12:07So you agree with our plan?
12:10I don't know about you, but I'd rather die in a familiar place,
12:13surrounded by familiar faces.
12:15There you are, Mr. Mason.
12:17Mason, it seems we have everything settled.
12:20We'll be away before long.
12:22He'll be forced to do better.
12:24If we can just get him back to where he knows, I feel sure of it.
12:28I shouldn't...
12:29I shouldn't worry too much.
12:31We'll know much more when he's rested.
12:34I'm very grateful, my lady.
12:36To both of you.
12:37Let's get him ready.
12:44See, sometimes we must let the blow fall by degrees.
12:49Give him time to find the strength to face it.
12:55Right.
12:55They're here.
12:56May I stay to settle him in?
12:58Very well.
13:00I want to help too.
13:04Lady Mary, I appreciate your good intentions,
13:08but I'm concerned that Captain Crawley's condition may be very distressing for you.
13:13Might I suggest that you hang back until the nurses have tidied him up a little?
13:16I'm not much good at hanging back, I'm afraid.
13:18I won't get in your way, I promise.
13:20But I will stay.
13:22You have volunteers, don't you?
13:24Well, that's what I am.
13:26A volunteer.
13:27I'll be here.
13:28All right.
13:31Everyone's there, posts.
13:32You stand there.
13:34Yes.
13:35This gentleman's second in.
13:37Yes, Doctor.
13:38Number two, let's roll it here.
13:40Yes.
13:41Yes.
13:42Yes, just here.
13:51Jen.
13:52Jen.
13:53Jen.
13:54Yes.
13:57Take him under his feet.
14:05Cousin Matthew.
14:06Can you hear me?
14:07He is breathing.
14:09He's not been conscious since we've had him.
14:11They filled him full of morphine.
14:19What does it say?
14:21Probable spinal damage.
14:24It could mean anything.
14:26Or no more in the morning.
14:29What's this doing here?
14:33I gave it to him for luck.
14:35He was probably carrying it when he fell.
14:38If only it had worked.
14:40He's alive, isn't he?
14:43I should wash him.
14:44This bit can be grim.
14:46Sometimes we have to cut off the clothes they've travelled in.
14:48And there's bound to be a lot of blood.
14:50How hot should the water be?
14:53Warm more than hot.
14:54And bring some towels.
15:17She'd never have told her Bates was here.
15:18Don't I know it?
15:20And she was even worse after she'd seen him than before.
15:22Ranting on about a scandal that would bring the roof down on the house of Grantham.
15:26Silly mare.
15:27What scandal?
15:29I thought she'd just come up and take a bite out of Bates.
15:32That's what it sounded like.
15:33Then you should have asked more questions.
15:35You know what they say.
15:35The devil is in the detail.
15:37I'm not standing by while she brings misery and ruin on my lady.
15:40You started it?
15:42Oh yes, you're very important, aren't you?
15:44Very know-it-all.
15:45With all of us at your beck and call.
15:47I'm sorry if you're angry, but don't take it out on me.
15:50You did it.
15:55Whom is she going to sell it to?
15:57She didn't say.
15:58Just that there was nothing we could do to stop her.
16:01Mr Bates has given her every last penny to keep her quiet.
16:04But she's tricked him.
16:06And now he's got nothing left to bargain with.
16:09Well, you both know what I must do.
16:13But how can you ask Sir Richard for help without telling him the truth?
16:17I'd rather he heard it from my lips than read it over his breakfast.
16:22Suppose he won't do anything?
16:26Suppose he throws you over.
16:29That's a risk I'll have to take.
16:32I'll go up to London tomorrow afternoon.
16:35It's a request that demands to be made in person.
16:39What about Mr Matthew?
16:41Miss Swire will be here to keep him company.
16:43I think I can take some time off to save my own neck.
16:57Why don't you go home now, Mr Mason?
16:59We'll see you tomorrow.
17:02Are you sure you don't mind sitting up with him?
17:04He won't be alone.
17:05Not for a moment.
17:06I promise.
17:13It looks so perfect.
17:16My own thing.
17:27But it does look perfect.
17:30Are you sure they've got it right?
17:33I'm afraid so.
17:35If only I weren't.
17:47Can you feel that?
17:49No.
17:51What about that?
17:52No.
17:54I'm not?
17:55No, I'm not.
17:58Nothing at all.
18:07Do they know any more yet?
18:09They're examining him now.
18:11So he's conscious?
18:12Just about.
18:14Have they found out what happened?
18:15A shell landed near them.
18:18The explosion threw Matthew against something.
18:21Go on.
18:23Dr Clarkson thinks there may be trouble with his legs.
18:26Please.
18:29Not good news, I'm afraid.
18:32I'd say the spinal cord has been transected.
18:35That it is permanently damaged.
18:38You mean he won't walk again?
18:40If I'm right, then no, he won't.
18:45It's a shock, of course.
18:46He must be allowed to grieve.
18:48But I would only say that he will in all likelihood regain his health.
18:52This is not the end of his life.
18:55Just the start of a different life.
18:57Exactly.
19:00Well, Grantham, I wonder if I might have a word.
19:05Have you got a handkerchief?
19:08I never seem to have an appearance of crisis.
19:12You mean there can be no children?
19:15No anything, I'm afraid.
19:19But isn't there a chance that might change?
19:23The sexual reflex is controlled at a lower level of the spine to the motor function of the legs.
19:29Once the latter is cut off, so is the former.
19:35Right.
19:41Give them a moment together.
19:45What was Clarkson saying?
19:48Nothing to worry you about.
19:57My darling.
20:07What was Clarkson?
20:10Why don't you go to Clarkson?
20:35If he could only see the child.
20:38He won't.
20:40I've written again and again.
20:41I've offered to bring him to any place he wants.
20:45I wasn't going to tell you this,
20:48but he's coming on a visit this week to see his old pals.
20:52Help me, Mrs Hughes.
20:54Let me come to Downton and show him the baby.
20:56Oh, certainly not. I won't allow that.
20:58Then ask him to meet me.
20:59I know he'd listen to you.
21:01I'll give you a letter. One more can't hurt.
21:03Make him read it in front of you.
21:05I'll do no such thing.
21:06Oh, please!
21:07He'd say it was none of my business and he'd be right.
21:10Besides, don't think I approve of what you've done, because I don't.
21:13Haven't you ever made a mistake?
21:15Not on this scale. No, I have not. Sorry to disappoint you.
21:19So you won't do anything?
21:21I'm feeding you out of the house quite wrongly, I might add.
21:24I've a good mind to stop that.
21:26Now I'm the one who's sorry.
21:35Now go in.
21:37Do you know what to say?
21:37It doesn't matter. He's dying.
21:40Just say nice and warm, comforting things.
21:42Make him feel loved.
21:43You don't have to be Shakespeare.
21:47There she is.
21:49Come on, Brie, where I can see you.
21:57There, you can go worth it if I get to hold your hand.
21:59Don't be daft.
22:01I've never slept in a room as big as this.
22:04Where are we?
22:05At the end of the South Gallery.
22:07Now take this.
22:09Any news of Captain Crawley?
22:11He's doing much better.
22:13Thanks to you.
22:24Dad'll be here in a bit.
22:26Can you stay for a minute?
22:27I hope to go down. It's not fair, Mrs. Patmore.
22:30She won't mind.
22:32Because I did want to ask you something.
22:36Daisy, would you ever marry me now?
22:38And not wait for the end of the war like we said?
22:41You mustn't worry about all that for the moment now, William.
22:44You're here for rest.
22:46Not excitement.
22:48That's right.
22:48There's no need to worry about it now.
22:50First, let's get you better.
22:51But would you think about it?
22:53I must go.
22:54They'll be sending out a search party soon.
22:56Just rest.
22:57Just rest.
23:05It would be very unusual.
23:08I know that.
23:09Of course it would.
23:11But I believe I could make it work.
23:13And if your child were ill?
23:15My mother knows what she's doing.
23:16She's brought up five of her own.
23:18Even so?
23:19And they're only in the village.
23:22I'll discuss it with Mr. Carson.
23:24There's nothing wrong with your references.
23:26But of course they are from before you were married.
23:28I'm a good worker.
23:30And I'm a stern.
23:35Matthew.
23:39Matthew.
23:49Are you feeling a bit less groggy?
23:53Where's Lavinia?
23:55She's gone back to unpack.
23:58Where's William?
24:00You know he tried to save me.
24:02He isn't too good, I'm afraid.
24:09Any sign of mother?
24:12Not yet.
24:13But I'm sure she's making her way back by now.
24:18I've still got this funny thing with my legs.
24:20I can't seem to move them.
24:23Or feel them.
24:25Now that I think about it.
24:28To clucks and mention what that might be.
24:32Why don't we wait for Lavinia?
24:34And then we can all talk about it.
24:38Tell me.
24:39You've not even been here for 24 hours.
24:42Nothing will have settled down yet.
24:45Tell me.
24:49He says you may have damaged your spine.
24:55How long will it take to repair?
24:57We can't expect them to put timings on that sort of thing.
25:02Well, he did say it would get better.
25:04He says the first task is to rebuild your health.
25:08And that's what we have to concentrate on.
25:15I see.
25:16And he says there was no reason why you should not have a perfectly full and normal life.
25:23It's not a very mobile one.
25:30Would you like some tea?
25:32I would.
25:35Thank you for telling me.
25:37I know I'm blubbing, but I mean it.
25:41I'd much rather know.
25:46Blub all you like.
25:48And then when Lavinia's here, you can make plans.
26:07Major, might I have a word?
26:21What is it?
26:23I have something for you.
26:28I wish you would read it.
26:30Do you know who wrote it?
26:32Yes, I do.
26:33And I know how anxious she is for an answer.
26:36With your respect, I don't believe it's any of your concern.
26:41If you'd only...
26:43If you'd only see the child.
26:46He's a lovely wee child.
26:47Mrs. Hughes, the last thing I'd wish to be is rude.
26:51But in this case, I really must be left to my own devices.
26:55Now I'll say goodbye.
26:57It's time I was making tracks.
26:59Goodbye then, Major.
27:08Who'd have thought it?
27:10The cold and careful Lady Mary Crawley.
27:14Well, we know better now.
27:15I'm surprised you haven't given me some extenuating circumstances.
27:19I have none.
27:21I was foolish.
27:22And I was paid out for my folly.
27:26And when I've saved you, if I can,
27:29do you still expect me to marry you, knowing this?
27:32That's not for me to say.
27:35Of course, we both know that if we marry people,
27:38your people will think you've conferred a great blessing on me.
27:41My house will welcome the finest in the land.
27:44My children will carry noble blood in their veins.
27:47But that won't be the whole story, will it?
27:50Not anymore.
27:56Sir Richard.
27:58If you think it pains me to ask this favour,
28:01you'd be right.
28:02But I have no choice if I am not to be an object of ridicule and pity.
28:07If you wish to break off our understanding,
28:09I'll accept your decision.
28:12After all, it's never been announced.
28:14We may dissolve it with the minimum of discomfort.
28:17Forgive me.
28:18I don't mean to offend you.
28:19I'm simply paying you the compliment of being honest.
28:22No, in many ways, if I can manage to bring it off,
28:25this will mean we come to the marriage on slightly more equal terms.
28:29I think that pleases me.
28:31So you'll do it?
28:33I'll try to do it, yes.
28:35You must act fast.
28:37I'll send a car for her as soon as you've let.
28:40Please let me know what it costs.
28:42I'll find a way to reimburse you.
28:45Never mind that.
28:49As my future wife, you're entitled to be in my debt.
28:55We've a bit of a conundrum, my lord.
28:57As you may know, we're short of a housemaid.
29:00We've had an application from a local woman, Jane Mawson.
29:04But she's married and she has a child, a son.
29:07But surely her husband, shall we?
29:08She's a widow, my lord.
29:11The late Mr. Mawson died on the Somme.
29:14There's no other earner, so she has to look for work.
29:16I said I would ask you.
29:18Well, if Mrs. Hughes agrees, I think we must do what we can for the widows of our defenders.
29:24Very good, Your Lordship.
29:29What was that?
29:30We're taking on a new maid.
29:32You should have talked to me, not you.
29:34They thought you were too busy to be bothered with it.
29:36Well, I am busy.
29:38And that reminds me, I can't come with you to the Townsends.
29:41You'll have to make some excuse.
29:43But we gave them the date.
29:46You'll think of something.
29:50You always said I wouldn't have to marry him when it came to it.
29:54Daisy, he's dying.
29:56What difference does it make?
29:58All the more reason.
29:59I can't lie to him at the end.
30:01Don't make me be false to a dying man.
30:03What matters now is the poor lad knows some peace and some happiness before he goes.
30:08I can't.
30:10I don't care if you can't walk.
30:13You must think me very feeble if you believed that would make a difference.
30:16I know it wouldn't be.
30:21And I love you so much for saying it.
30:24But there's something else which may not have occurred to you.
30:30It's very difficult.
30:34We can never be properly married.
30:39What?
30:40Of course we can be married.
30:42Not properly.
30:44Not properly.
30:51I see.
30:53That's why I have to let you go.
31:00But that side of things, it's not important to me, I promise.
31:04Darling, it's not important now.
31:07But it will be.
31:09And it should be.
31:13I couldn't possibly be responsible for stealing away the life you ought to have.
31:20I won't leave you.
31:22I know you think I'm weak.
31:24And I don't know what I'm taking on.
31:25How could you for God's sake?
31:27I'm not saying it'll be easy for either of us.
31:30But just because life isn't easy doesn't mean it isn't right.
31:33I won't fight with you.
31:37But I won't steal away your life.
31:42Go home.
31:44Think of me as dead.
31:47Remember me as I was.
31:57Mary's telephoned.
31:58She'll be on a late train.
32:00It gets in at 11.
32:01All right.
32:04How's William?
32:06It's so sad.
32:08Needless taking care of him, but there's nothing to be done.
32:11You're waiting, really.
32:15What is it?
32:17They shot the Tsar.
32:20And all of his family.
32:22How terrible.
32:23I'm sorry.
32:25I'll not deny it.
32:29I never thought they'd do.
32:31But sometimes the future needs terrible sacrifices.
32:35You thought that once.
32:37If you mean my politics, you know we've agreed to put that to one side until the war is won.
32:42Your lot did.
32:43But Sylvia Pankhurst was all for fighting on.
32:45Don't badger me, please.
32:53Sometimes a hard sacrifice must be made for a future that's worth having.
32:57That's all I'm saying.
33:00That's up to you.
33:11You understand it would have to be exclusive.
33:15I couldn't have you peddling different versions of the story to my competitor.
33:18Of course I understand.
33:19But I can't help it if they pick it up once you've published it.
33:22Indeed you can't.
33:23No more can I, but I would control the timing.
33:26You'd have to sign a binding contract to that effect today.
33:29I expected that.
33:31And I warn you, I am unforgiving when anyone breaks a contract with me.
33:35One word out of place and you'd find yourself in court.
33:38I expected that too.
33:40But I'm curious, how did you hear about me?
33:44I know everything that goes on in this city.
33:47And what's the hurry?
33:48I'm a newspaper man.
33:50When I hear of something good, I have to make sure of it straight away.
33:54I'm sorry if I rushed you.
33:56That's all right.
33:58You must dislike the Crawleys very much to want to subject them to trial by scandal.
34:03My husband works for them.
34:05We're not on good terms.
34:13How is he?
34:15His father's with him now and he seems to understand the situation.
34:19Poor mum.
34:21Daisy?
34:22William's asking to see you.
34:24I can't go.
34:26Don't make me go.
34:27Do you care so little for him?
34:29It's not that.
34:31I'm very fond of William and I'm very sad.
34:35But I've led him on and led him on and made him think things that aren't true.
34:39But he wanted them to be true.
34:41He was happy to think they were true.
34:43But that doesn't make it all right.
34:45Shall I tell him you won't come?
35:09Will you leave us a moment?
35:21There's no need to make him leave.
35:22There is a need.
35:25Come here.
35:35No, I'm dying.
35:36You don't know.
35:37I'm dying.
35:38Daisy.
35:41I'm not going to make it.
35:44I don't have long.
35:48That's why you've got to marry me.
35:50What?
35:51No, listen.
35:54You'll be my widow.
35:57A war widow with a pension and rights.
36:02You'll be looked after.
36:04You won't be much.
36:07Oh, no.
36:09You've got something to fall back on.
36:12Let me do that for you, please.
36:15I can't.
36:17It'd be dishonest.
36:19Almost like cheating.
36:22But it's not cheating.
36:24We love each other, don't we?
36:27We'd have married if I'd gone through it.
36:28Spent our whole lives together.
36:32Unless there's honesty in that.
36:49He's asked you, hasn't he?
36:52I knew he would.
36:54I knew he would.
36:54You'll do it, won't you?
36:56I don't think he should be bothering about it now.
37:00What else should he be bothered with?
37:03You're the most important thing on earth to him, Daisy.
37:08You wouldn't disappoint him, would you?
37:10I suppose the vicar won't do it.
37:14He may want to wait till William's well enough to go to church.
37:18But that time's not coming, is it?
37:29Lavinia?
37:37You're back.
37:39How did you get on?
37:41All right, I think.
37:45How about you?
37:47Matthew's told me to go home.
37:51He says he won't see me again.
37:54He feels he has to set me free, as he put it.
38:00I've tried to tell him I don't care, but he won't listen.
38:04And you must keep telling him.
38:08Yes, but you see, it isn't just not walking.
38:13Today he told me we could never be lovers, because all that's gone as well.
38:16I didn't realise.
38:18It's probably obvious to anyone with a brain, but I didn't realise.
38:23No.
38:27No, nor did I.
38:31And he feels it would be a crime to tie me down.
38:34To tie down any woman to the life of a childless nun.
38:40He thinks I'd hate him in the end.
38:46I'm sorry if I've shocked you, but there's no one else I could talk to about it, and when you
38:50came in...
38:51I'm not shocked.
38:53I'm just stunned.
38:56And desperately sad.
38:59I'll die if I can't be with him.
39:08Good God almighty.
39:09The engagement is announced between Lady Mary Josephine Crawley, eldest daughter of the Earl and Countess of Grantham,
39:15and Sir Richard Carlisle, son of Mr. and the late Mrs. Mark Carlisle of Morningside, Edinburgh.
39:22Is this why you went to see him?
39:23Why didn't you say it'd be in today's paper?
39:25I didn't know.
39:26Well, surely he asked your permission.
39:27I don't think asking permission is his strongest suit.
39:31That's very high-handed.
39:33You can't let him get away with it.
39:34Well, it's done now.
39:36What is it?
39:37William's wedding, my lord.
39:39If it can be arranged for this afternoon, the indoor staff would like to attend.
39:43We don't yet know if Mr. Travis will agree to do it.
39:45I'm afraid he has very little time to make up his mind.
39:52This boy is an extremist.
39:54How can we know that these are his true wishes?
39:57Maybe the kitchen maid somehow hopes to catch at an advantage.
40:02What advantage would that be?
40:04Some widow's dole given by a grateful nation.
40:08Mr. Travis, can I remind you, William Mason has served our family well.
40:15At the last, he saved the life, if not the health, of my son's heir.
40:20Now he wishes, before he dies, to marry his sweetheart.
40:25You cannot imagine that we would allow you to prevent this happening, in case his widow claimed her dole.
40:31No, but...
40:32I have had an interest in this boy.
40:34I tried and failed to save him from conscription.
40:38But I will certainly attend his wedding.
40:42Is that an argument in its favour?
40:45Of course.
40:45Finally, I would point out, your living is in Lord Grantham's gift.
40:51Your house is on Lord Grantham's land.
40:53And the very flowers in your church are from Lord Grantham's garden.
40:58I hope it is not vulgar in me to suggest that you find some way to overcome your scruples.
41:06But you can't have expected much more.
41:09Not one of those letters all went unanswered.
41:13I don't know what I expected, but you can't help walking.
41:19Have you found any work?
41:22A bit of scrubbing.
41:25There aren't many places I can take the baby.
41:29What do you tell them?
41:32That my husband died at the front.
41:38It's funny.
41:39We have a new maid, Jane.
41:42Who really is a war widow with a child.
41:44And we respect her for it.
41:46But then, we believe her story.
41:53Mr. Bates, I really must...
41:54You tricked me!
41:56Well, aren't you going to deny it?
41:58Certainly not.
41:59I tricked you to protect my fiancée's good name.
42:02That's one word for her.
42:03I can think of a few others.
42:04You better not speak them aloud if you know what's good for you.
42:06I don't want your money.
42:07I don't want that contract.
42:09It's too late for that.
42:10And I warn you, if I so much as read her name in anything but the court circular,
42:15I shall hound you and ruin you and have you locked up.
42:18Isn't that clear?
42:23Doesn't end here, you know.
42:24Not for John Bates.
42:26Lady Mary might have got away.
42:27What do I care?
42:28But he won't.
42:30You tell him.
42:32It's entirely your own affair.
42:41Where do we start?
42:43You tell me.
42:44Oh, your lordship, I do apologise.
42:47I thought Mrs. Hughes said we were to clean in here.
42:49You must be the new maid.
42:52I am.
42:54Jane.
42:55And it's very kind of you and her ladyship to take me on.
42:58Not a bit.
43:00We all owe your late husband a great debt.
43:07Lord, there's a telephone call.
43:10Jane, whatever are you doing?
43:12You want it in the drawing room, not the library, to clean it while the men are out of it.
43:17She's very willing, but she's not quite there yet.
43:19I am sorry.
43:20Oh, don't be.
43:21What about that call?
43:22For Lady Mary.
43:23They're waiting now.
43:24You might just catch her if you hurry.
43:26She's on her way to the hospital.
43:38His lordship asked Mr. Bassett to bring these in for you.
43:41Oh, how lovely.
43:45Here.
43:45Daisy, sit down.
43:48I shouldn't be doing this.
43:49It's just a lie, you know it is.
43:51You're doing it after the goodness of your heart.
43:54The falseness of my heart, I'm all right.
43:57She's not quite the blooming bride.
43:59I don't think it's the same when you're marrying a coach.
44:01Are you going?
44:02Why not?
44:02I wouldn't mind shaking William's hand before the coach.
44:07Is that sentiment of our superstition in case it haunts you?
44:14You look lovely, dear.
44:17Just to see the vicar is ready for us.
44:21Let's go up, then.
44:50Let's go up, then.
44:51To join together this man and this woman in holy matrimony.
44:55Which is an honourable estate instituted of guard in the time of man's innocence.
45:01Signifying unto us the mystical meaning of what is the truth.
45:06Any man can show any just cause why they may not lawfully be joined together.
45:12Let him now speak.
45:14Because hereafter, you will never put his face.
45:24Every three.
45:49You may not kiss the bride.
46:04She's better off in London.
46:06If you say so.
46:09Do you know why I sent her away?
46:11I think so.
46:14Then you'll know I couldn't marry her.
46:18Not now.
46:20I couldn't marry any woman.
46:22And if they should just want to be with you?
46:25On any terms?
46:27No one sane would want to be with me as I am now.
46:33Including me.
46:35Oh, God.
46:37I think I'm going to be sick.
46:41It's all right.
46:44It's perfectly all right.
46:53What is it?
46:57I was just thinking.
46:58It seems such a short time ago since I turned you down.
47:01And now look at me.
47:03Impotent cripples thinking of sick.
47:05What a reversal.
47:08You have to admit it's quite funny.
47:11All I'll admit is that you're here.
47:13And you've survived the war.
47:16That's enough for now.
47:28Your buck.
47:29You'll be so pleased.
47:32You've become quite a nurse since I last saw you.
47:35Oh, no.
47:36It's nothing.
47:37Sybil's the nurse in this family.
47:39It's the very opposite of nothing.
47:49Mother.
47:58Bates.
48:00What's happened?
48:01How's William?
48:03He's nearly there, my lady.
48:06I'm so sorry.
48:09Actually, Bates, I'm glad I've caught you.
48:12Sir Richard Carlisle telephoned me earlier.
48:14He says he's paid Mrs Bates for her story.
48:17She cannot speak of it now without risking prison.
48:19She won't do that.
48:21So I hope we can all forget it.
48:23It's forgotten already, my lady.
48:28I'm afraid she was very angry when she knew she had been silenced.
48:33I can imagine.
48:34He says she made threats against you.
48:37If I go down, I'll take him with me.
48:39That sort of thing.
48:40I'm sure she didn't mean it.
48:42Are you, my lady?
48:45Well, you'd know better than I.
48:56Lady Mary's back.
48:57I've just seen her.
48:59She says it's worked.
49:01Sir Richard has put a gag on me.
49:02Thank God.
49:05So everything in our garden is rosy again?
49:07I hope so.
49:08I certainly hope so.
49:11I hope so.
49:31You must be so tired, my lad.
49:33Why not let me take over for a while and go and lie down?
49:37No, thank you, Mrs Bates.
49:38I'll stay with him.
49:39I won't leave him now.
49:40Not while he needs me.
49:42He doesn't need you no more, Daisy.
49:48He doesn't need none of us no more.
