00:43When does it open?
00:45Tomorrow afternoon.
00:47Well, let's get up a party in the evening, if Mrs Hughes lets us,
00:51after we've had our dinner.
00:52You're right. He doesn't come often, and he doesn't stay long.
00:55Well, what about you, Mr Bates?
00:57I don't see why not.
01:00Well, there's Lady Mary.
01:02You go on ahead. I'll see you back at the house.
01:05Right, you are then.
01:07Good day, my lady.
01:09Is her ladyship all right?
01:11Yes, she recovered from...
01:15If you think she'll ever recover from carrying the body of Mr Pamuk
01:18from one side of the house to the other, then you don't know her at all.
01:22Well, I didn't mean recover exactly.
01:24Just get past it.
01:27She won't do that either.
01:29When she dies, they'll cut her open and find it engraved on her heart.
01:34What about you?
01:36What about your heart?
01:39Haven't you heard?
01:40I don't have a heart.
01:42Everyone knows that.
01:45Not me, my lady.
01:54You wanted to see the new chauffeur, my lord?
01:56Yes, indeed.
01:57Please send him in.
02:01Come in.
02:02Come in.
02:03Good to see you again.
02:04Branson, isn't it?
02:05That's right, your lordship.
02:06I hope they've shown you where everything is
02:08and we've delivered whatever we promised at the interview.
02:10Certainly, my lord.
02:12Won't you miss Ireland?
02:13Ireland, yes, but not the job.
02:15The mistress was a nice lady, but she only had one car
02:18and she wouldn't let me drive it over 20 miles an hour.
02:20So it was a bit...
02:23well, boring, so to speak.
02:26You've got a wonderful library.
02:30You're very welcome to borrow books, if you wish.
02:33Really, my lord?
02:34Well, there's a ledger over there that I make everyone use,
02:36even my daughters.
02:38Carson and Mrs. Hughes sometimes take a novel or two.
02:41What are your interests?
02:42History and politics, mainly.
02:45Heavens.
02:47Carson, Branson is going to borrow some books.
02:49He has my permission.
02:51Very good, my lord.
02:52Is that all, my lord?
02:54It is.
02:55Off you're going.
02:57Good luck.
03:03He seems a bright spark after poor old Taylor.
03:07And to think Taylor's gone off to run a tea shop.
03:10I cannot feel it will make for a very restful retirement, can you?
03:14I would rather be put to death, my lord.
03:18Quite so.
03:20Thank you, Carson.
03:22How about some house parties?
03:24She's been asked to one next month by Lady Anne McNair.
03:28That's a terrible idea.
03:29She doesn't know anyone under a hundred.
03:31I might send her over to visit my aunt.
03:33She could get to know New York.
03:35Oh, I don't think things are quite that desperate.
03:37Poor Mary.
03:38She's been terribly down in the mouth lately.
03:40She was very upset by the death of poor Mr. Pamuk.
03:44Why?
03:45She didn't know him.
03:46One can't go to pieces at the death of every foreigner.
03:49We'd all be in a state of collapse whenever we opened a newspaper.
03:53Oh, no.
03:54Of course, Mary's main difficulty is that her situation is unresolved.
04:00I mean, is she an heiress or isn't she?
04:03The entail is unbreakable.
04:04Mary cannot inherit.
04:06No.
04:07What we need is a lawyer who's decent and honour-bound to look into it.
04:13I think perhaps I know just the man.
04:19Are you going to the fair while it's here?
04:20I shouldn't think so, sir.
04:22But I don't mind it.
04:23I like the music.
04:25Goodness, what's happened to your hands?
04:27It's nothing, ma'am.
04:29They look very painful.
04:31Oh, no, ma'am.
04:32Irritating more than painful.
04:33Have you been using anything new to polish the silver?
04:36Or the shoes?
04:37No.
04:38May I?
04:39Leave him alone, mother.
04:46It looks like erysipelas.
04:48You must have cut yourself.
04:50Not that I'm aware of.
04:51We'll walk round to the hospital tomorrow.
04:53Really?
04:53I insist.
05:04Oh, if you've got a cold, I want you out of here, yeah?
05:08Anna, there you are.
05:09You know I'm out tonight, because I don't want to come home to any surprises.
05:13Ha-ha!
05:14That'll be the day.
05:16We thought we might go to the fair later.
05:18You'd like that, wouldn't you, Daisy?
05:20Now, you ought to go.
05:21She's been that down in the mouth since the death of poor Mr Pamu.
05:24Don't say that.
05:25She does.
05:26We could all walk down together after the servants dinner, if that's okay.
05:30Oh, her, you won't be walking anywhere.
05:32She's got minutes to live, by the sound of it.
05:35Go to bed at once.
05:37Yes, Mrs Hughes.
05:39I'll bring up a Beecham's powder.
05:42Right, if there's anything you want to ask me,
05:44it'll need to be before I go.
05:46What would I want to ask you?
05:48I'm preparing a meal for Lord and Lady Grantham and the girls.
05:50No-one is visiting.
05:51No-one is staying.
05:54Well, that's settled, then.
05:59I'm afraid Dr Clarkson's out delivering a baby.
06:02We don't know when he'll be back.
06:04No matter.
06:04If you'll just open the store cupboard, I can easily find what I need.
06:08Well, I...
06:08You can tell the doctor that you opened the cupboard for the chairman of the board.
06:11I assure you, he will raise not the slightest objection.
06:18This should do it.
06:20Tincture of steel.
06:21Ten drops in water three times a day.
06:25And this is solution of nitrate of silver.
06:28Rub a little in, morning and night.
06:30How long before it's better?
06:32Ericepulis is very hard to cure.
06:34We should be able to reduce the symptoms, but that might be all we can manage.
06:37Oh, and you must wear gloves at all times.
06:40I couldn't wear to table in gloves.
06:43I look like a footman.
06:44You may have to.
06:46The tincture in the salve will help.
06:47Try it for a week and we'll see.
06:53Someone to see you, Mr Crawley.
06:55There's nothing in my diary.
06:57It's Lady Grantham.
06:59Well, in that case, she'll bring her in at once.
07:02I'm Cora.
07:03To what do I owe the...
07:05I hope I'm not a disappointment.
07:10I thought it might be nice to cheer it up a bit.
07:13Easier said than done.
07:15Perhaps with a flower or a bit of veil or something.
07:18I can find you a veil if you like.
07:20I hope you're not expecting me to do it.
07:23Not if you're busy, of course.
07:25Good.
07:26And, Miss O'Brien,
07:28I've sent Anna to bed with a call,
07:30so I need you to manage the young ladies.
07:32What? All three of them?
07:34I'm not an octopus.
07:35Why can't Gwen do it?
07:37Because she is not a lady's maid.
07:39I am not a slave.
07:41Just do it, Miss O'Brien.
07:43Just do it.
07:47I'll pay you the compliment
07:49that I do not believe you wish to inherit
07:52just because nobody's investigated properly.
07:54No, but...
07:55Nor can Murray accuse you of making trouble
07:57when you're the one who will suffer most from a discovery.
08:00You're right that I don't wish to benefit
08:01at Mary's expense from an ignorance of the law.
08:05Putting it bluntly,
08:06do you think Robert has thrown in the towel prematurely?
08:11Good heavens, what am I sitting on?
08:13A swivel chair.
08:14Oh, another modern brainwave?
08:17Not very modern.
08:17They were invented by Thomas Jefferson.
08:19Why does every day involve a fight with an American?
08:22I'll fetch a different one.
08:23No, no, no, no.
08:24I'm a good sailor.
08:28It will depend on the exact terms
08:30of the entail and of the deed of gift
08:32when cousin Cora's money was transferred to the estate.
08:35That is all I ask,
08:36to understand the exact terms.
08:47Is Daisy going to the fair tonight with the others?
08:50Why don't you ask her?
08:51She needs taken out of herself.
08:56What's it to you?
08:57Nothing.
09:02Daisy, I was hoping I'd...
09:03Would you like to go to the fair with me, Daisy?
09:06There's a few of us going later on.
09:08Do you mean it?
09:11Daisy, don't let it get cold.
09:15Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
09:23You bust.
09:27Why is Sibyl having a new dress, not me?
09:30Because it's Sibyl's turn.
09:32Can it be my choice this time?
09:34Of course, tell me.
09:35As long as you choose what I choose.
09:37Branson, you'll be taking Lady Sibyl to Ripon tomorrow.
09:40She'll be leaving after luncheon.
09:42Certainly your ladyship.
09:44Poor old madam Swan.
09:45I don't know why we bother with fitting.
09:47She always makes the same frock.
09:49What do you want her to make?
09:50Something new and exciting.
09:52Heavens, look at the time.
09:54Not a minute to change.
09:57Granny's invited herself for dinner.
09:59Then she can jolly well wait.
10:01So women's rights begin at home.
10:04I see.
10:05Well, I'm all for that.
10:24I'm just off, Mr. Carson.
10:26According to the wine book, we should still have six dozen of this.
10:29But I'm begging if I can find much more than four.
10:31Look again before you jump to any nasty conclusions.
10:35Long time since you last took a night off.
10:37You don't think I ought to stay, do you?
10:39Certainly not.
10:40Be off with you.
10:41And Anna's in bed with a cold, so I'm afraid it's all down to you.
10:45Go.
10:56I'll have a go before I went home.
10:58How about you?
10:59Oh, thank you.
11:02Do you know if your father's doing anything this evening?
11:06He's not coming to the fair.
11:07Seriously?
11:09We're having dinner with his family.
11:12Could I look in afterwards?
11:14May I ask why?
11:17Your grandmother paid me a visit this afternoon, and I'm...
11:20Well, never mind, but I would like to see him.
11:25Granny came to see you?
11:27Is it all part of the great matter?
11:39So, are you enjoying your new life?
11:42Yes, I think so.
11:44I know my work seems very trivial to you.
11:47Not necessarily.
11:49Sometimes I rather envy you having somewhere to go over the morning.
11:53I thought that may have been very middle class.
11:55You should learn to forget what I say.
11:57I know I do.
11:59How about you?
12:01Is your life proving satisfactory?
12:02Apart from the great matter, of course.
12:05Women like me don't have a life.
12:08We choose clothes and pay calls and work for charity and do the season.
12:13But really, we're stuck in a waiting room until we marry.
12:18I've made you angry.
12:19My life makes me angry.
12:21Not you.
12:30I never put the Sauternes on ice.
12:32Mrs. Hughes goes out for one night and we all fall to pieces.
12:34Mr. Carson, we wondered if we could walk down to the fair after dinner.
12:37I suppose so, but don't be too late.
12:41Where do you think she's gone?
12:42None of your business.
12:43Like most of what goes on around here.
12:47Well, call that man.
12:48I always say it myself.
12:49Thanks ever, sir.
12:53Yes.
12:59Oh, you've cheered up a bit.
13:01He's so agile, isn't he?
13:03He could have been a sportsman.
13:05Who?
13:06Thomas, of course.
13:08Really?
13:10Which sport did you have in mind?
13:14I ran into Cousin Matthew in the village.
13:16He wanted to call on you after dinner.
13:19Apparently, Granny's been to see him.
13:21Did you tell him she's coming here this evening?
13:23I didn't know she was.
13:24When he arrives, do your best to keep her in the drawing room.
13:27Well, I'd like to see you try.
13:29Ha, ha, ha.
13:52Don't stay too long.
13:53Let them have an early night.
13:55But Cyril, Cyril, darling,
13:57why would you want to go to a real school?
13:59You're not a doctor's daughter.
14:00But nobody learns anything from the governors,
14:02apart from French and how to courtesy.
14:05What else do you need?
14:08Well, there's...
14:09Are you thinking of a career in banking?
14:12No, but it is a noble profession.
14:14Things are different in America.
14:17I know.
14:17They live in weak realms.
14:19And when you come out of them, they go to school.
14:29If you wait in the library, I'll tell Papa you're here.
14:40Oh!
14:42All right.
14:49Here we go.
14:53Oh, it's the next one.
14:54Hey, it goes.
14:55Oh!
14:57Oh!
14:58Elsie?
15:02It is Elsie, isn't it?
15:04It is.
15:05Though there's very few left to call me that, Joe Burns.
15:08Well, I'm flattered, but I'm one of them.
15:14Where's Thomas?
15:15I'm afraid I let some of the servants go down to the fair, my lord.
15:19I didn't know we'd have any visitors tonight.
15:22Well, that's all right.
15:23They don't have much fun.
15:24You should join them.
15:30So, what did you say to Mama?
15:32I haven't spoken to her since her visit,
15:34but I have looked through every source,
15:37and I can't find one reason on which to base a challenge.
15:40I could have told you that.
15:43I'm not quite sure how to phrase it when I tell her.
15:46She shouldn't have put you on the spot like that. It was unkind.
15:49I'm afraid she'll think I've failed because I don't want to succeed.
15:53She will think that, but I don't.
15:55And normal Cora.
15:57Of course, it's impossible for Mary.
15:59She must resent me so bitterly.
16:01And I don't blame her.
16:04Yes, it must have been hard for you when Ivy died.
16:08Took some getting used to.
16:10What about your son?
16:11Do you see much of him?
16:12Peter?
16:13No.
16:14I would have given him a share of the farm if he wanted it,
16:16but he's joined the army.
16:18Well, I never.
16:20Oh, he seems happy.
16:21But he's left me on my own.
16:24I'll take your place, then.
16:29So, how's life treated you?
16:32Oh, I can't complain.
16:34I haven't travelled.
16:36But I've seen a bit of life, and no mistake.
16:40I notice you call yourself Mrs.
16:44Housekeepers and cooks are always Mrs.
16:46You know better than anyone I haven't changed my name.
16:51Well, I know you wouldn't change it to Burns
16:53when you had the chance.
16:59You shouldn't have eaten with us.
17:00The chauffeur always eats in his own cottage.
17:02Steady on.
17:03You can cut him a bit of slack on his second day.
17:05Waiting to take old lady Granthamble.
17:07Even then, Taylor never met with us.
17:09You're taking advantage of Mrs. Hugh's absence.
17:14What are you doing?
17:16I'm sorting the collars,
17:18removing the ones that have come to an end.
17:20What happens to his lordship's old clothes?
17:22What's it to you?
17:23Clothes are of Alex's pert, not of chauffeur's.
17:26I get some,
17:27but most of it goes into the missionary barrel.
17:29I know it's meant to be kind,
17:31but I can think of better ways of helping the needy
17:32than sending stiff collars to the equator.
17:38I thought Anna might have come down for a dinner.
17:40And show she's ready to start work again.
17:43Not a chance.
17:45She's still in bed then?
17:46She is.
17:47While I'm sat here,
17:48sewing like a cursed princess in a fairy tale
17:51and not down at the fair with the others.
17:55Would you like me to ask Branson
17:56to bring the car around, my lady?
17:58Where's Robert?
17:59He can't have been drinking port since we left.
18:02He'd be under the table by now.
18:03His lordship's in the library.
18:05All alone?
18:07Oh, how sad.
18:08No, he...
18:09We can say goodbye to Papa for you, Granny.
18:14His what?
18:18His with Mr Crawley, my lady.
18:22The question is,
18:23what do I say to Cousin Violet?
18:25Oh, don't worry about that.
18:26I can handle her.
18:27Really?
18:29Well, if you can,
18:30you must have learned to very recently.
18:52Anna?
18:54Mr Bates?
18:57Can you open the door?
19:01I don't.
19:03No one can open that door except Mrs Hughes.
19:06Just for a moment,
19:07I've brought you something.
19:27I don't know.
19:28I don't know.
19:57What I don't understand in all this is you.
19:59You seem positively glad to see Mary disinherited.
20:03You speak as if we had a choice.
20:05Thank you, Branson.
20:15I'm worn out.
20:17Tell Lady Mary and Mr Crawley I've gone to bed.
20:19Shall I tell them now, my lord?
20:23No.
20:24Wait until they ring.
20:28I like this.
20:31Yes, sir.
20:32I ought to start back.
20:34This is very late for me.
20:35Oh, not yet.
20:37It's a long time since I've had a girl to show off for at the fair.
20:43So I take it you never get lonely?
20:46Well, that's working in a big house.
20:48Yes, though there are times when you yearn for a bit of solitude.
20:52Oh, we have a winner!
20:57Well, something to remind you of me.
21:02I don't need help to remember you.
21:09But what happens when you retire?
21:12I should think I'll stay here.
21:13They'll look after me.
21:15Suppose they sell the estate?
21:17Suppose there's a tidal wave?
21:19Suppose we all die of the plague?
21:21Suppose there's a war?
21:24What did I tell you?
21:25She's found her Romeo.
21:27I might be her brother.
21:28She hasn't got her brother, or we'd know it by now.
21:31Just a sister and living since Hans.
21:33You know everything, don't you?
21:37Everything, my foot.
21:39You're hiding behind him, but he's not what you think he is.
21:42Oh, go on, William.
21:43If you're going to be such a spoilspar...
21:47All right, I will.
21:49Come back, she didn't mean it!
21:55I must go.
21:57But it's been lovely to see you again, Joe.
22:01Really.
22:02And you know what I'm asking?
22:04We haven't asked anything yet.
22:07But you know what it is, when I do.
22:12I'm going to stop here at the pub until I hear from you.
22:16Oh, and take your time.
22:19I'd rather wait a week for the right answer than get a wrong one in a hurry.
22:25Think about it carefully.
22:28I will.
22:28Well, I promise you that.
22:46To break the entail, we'd need a private bill in Parliament.
22:49Even then, it would only be passed if the estate were in danger, which it's not.
22:54And I mean nothing in all this.
22:55On the contrary, you mean a great deal.
22:58A very great deal.
23:04You rang, my lady?
23:05Yes, Carson.
23:07Mr Crawley was just leaving.
23:09Do you know where his lordship is?
23:11Gone to bed, my lady.
23:13He felt tired after he put Lady Grantham into the car.
23:16I bet he did.
23:17Thank you, Carson.
23:25I'm sorry.
23:25I wish I could think of something to say that would help.
23:28There's nothing.
23:29But you mustn't let it trouble you.
23:30It does trouble me.
23:33It troubles me very much.
23:36Then that will be my consolation prize.
23:40Good night, Cousin Matthew.
23:42Good night.
23:44Good night.
23:44Good night.
23:45Good night.
23:58I hope I haven't kept you up too late.
24:00I'm afraid we've interfered with your dinner.
24:03It's been rather a chop and change evening downstairs.
24:07Lady Grantham got off all right.
24:10All right is an optimistic assessment, sir.
24:13It's very difficult, Carson.
24:16For her, for Lady Mary, for everyone.
24:20It is, Mr Crawley.
24:22But I appreciate your saying so.
24:47Well, that's the greatness done and dusted for the night.
24:51William, have you had a good night?
24:53I'm off to bed.
24:55Wait.
24:58What happened?
24:59Nothing.
25:00It doesn't matter.
25:02How was your evening, Mrs Hughes?
25:05Very enjoyable, thank you.
25:07The others are just behind me, so you can lock up in a minute.
25:12Well, I'll say good night.
25:14Good night, Mrs Sumner.
25:15Night.
25:18Good night, Mrs Hughes.
25:19Good night, Mrs Hughes.
25:24I was right when I said she was looking sparkly-eyed.
25:26I beg your pardon, Thomas.
25:31He can disapprove all he likes.
25:33Mrs Hughes has got a fancy man.
25:36Him?
25:37A fancy man?
25:38Don't be so nasty, Daisy.
25:39He doesn't suit you.
25:43I reckon there's a job vacancy coming up.
25:46Miss O'Brien, do you fancy a promotion?
25:48Oh, very droll.
25:49If she's got a boyfriend, I'm a giraffe.
26:06Leave me alone, Mr Bates.
26:09I know you mean well, but let me be.
26:21What chance did he have, up against a champion?
26:29I know you.
26:29Are you listening?
26:30You filthy little rat.
26:33If you don't lay off, I will punch your shining teeth through the back of your skull.
26:39Is this supposed to frighten me, Mr Bates?
26:43Because if it is, it is working.
26:46I'm sorry, but it's just not working.
27:16I'm sorry, but it's just not working.
27:29Daisy, chafing dishes now.
27:31Right in front of you, Mrs Patmore.
27:33Are you trying to trick me?
27:35Anna's still not well.
27:36O'Brien knew me to dress the girls this morning.
27:40All we know about Lady Mary, and here I am waiting on her hand and foot.
27:44Will we do anything with that?
27:45Maybe, but not yet.
27:54What do you look like?
27:57Daisy, what do you think he looks like?
28:00Do your buttons up.
28:01Go on then.
28:06Go on then.
28:10Go on then.
28:22Go on then.
28:36What do you want?
28:37I've got a message for Lady Sibyl, from her ladyship.
28:41Thank you, O'Brien. I'll manage now.
28:51Odeous woman.
28:52What does my ma want?
28:54I just said that to get rid of her.
28:57Well, this came today.
29:08I knew they would want to see you.
29:10It's your reference, what's done it.
29:12How am I going to get there? They won't let me take a day off.
29:15You're going to be ill.
29:17They can't stop you being ill.
29:18What? No-one has seen Anna for a whole day.
29:21They won't notice if you vanish for a couple of hours.
29:27The only one who never sticks up for me in all this is you.
29:31Why is that?
29:32You are my darling daughter, and I love you.
29:35Hard as it is for an Englishman to say the words.
29:38Well, then.
29:40If I had made my own fortune and bought Downton for myself, it should be yours without question.
29:45But I did not.
29:48My fortune is the work of others who laboured to build a great dynasty.
29:54Do I have the right to destroy their work or impoverish that dynasty?
30:01I am a custodian, my dear, not an owner.
30:06I must strive to be worthy of the task I've been set.
30:11If I could take Mama's money out of the estates, Downton would have to be sold to pay for it.
30:16Is that what you want?
30:17To see Matthew a landless peer with a title but no means to pay for it?
30:21So I'm just to find a husband and get out of the way?
30:25You could stay here if you married Matthew.
30:28You know my character, Father.
30:30I'd never marry any man that I was told to.
30:34I'm stubborn.
30:35I wish I wasn't, but I am.
30:56Well, you have your own way, do you think?
30:59With the frock.
31:01Only I couldn't help overhearing yesterday.
31:03And from what her ladyship said, it sounded as if you support women's rights.
31:07I suppose I do.
31:10Because I'm quite political.
31:13In fact, I brought some pamphlets that I thought might interest you about the vote.
31:20But please don't mention this to my father or my grandmother.
31:24One whiff of reform and she hears the rattle of the guillotine.
31:29It seems rather unlikely, a revolutionary chauffeur.
31:33Maybe.
31:34But I'm a socialist, not a revolutionary.
31:38And I won't always be a chauffeur.
31:45Mrs Crawley.
31:46Oh, nice.
31:48You're busy. We can come back later.
31:50Moseley?
31:51What are you doing here?
31:52Are you ill?
31:53Well, poor Mr Moseley.
31:55How's it going?
31:56The solution doesn't seem to make it any better.
31:59My imagination's running right.
32:02I've got erysipelas, you ladyship.
32:05Oh.
32:05Oh, I am sorry.
32:07Mrs Crawley tells me she's recommended nitrate of silver and tincture of steel.
32:12Well, is she making a suit of armour?
32:14But, er, I take it there's been no improvement?
32:17Not really.
32:19And you're sure it's erysipelas?
32:21That is Mrs Crawley's diagnosis.
32:25What it is to have medical knowledge.
32:27It has its uses.
32:29Hmm.
32:31Has your father been making changes at home?
32:34He has, milady.
32:35He's got no use for the herb garden.
32:37Now me mother's gone, so he's turned it to grass.
32:38And you've been helping him?
32:40I have.
32:41Mm-hmm.
32:42Grubbing out the old roo hedge.
32:45How did he know that?
32:46Because this is not erysipelas.
32:49This is a roo allergy.
32:52If Milsley wears gardening gloves, it'll be gone in a week.
32:56Please don't think we're ungrateful for your enthusiasm, Mrs Crawley,
33:00but there comes a time when things are best left to the professionals.
33:05And I really, I really must go.
33:08Good day.
33:10Thank you, George.
33:20I hope cousin Violet has recovered from last night.
33:22Whatever she says, my mother is as strong as an ox.
33:25And it's high time she let go of her scheme for upsetting everything.
33:28Time we all did.
33:30I can't deny I'm pleased to hear it.
33:33Are you beginning to see a future here, then?
33:35In a way, this latest business has forced me to recognise
33:37that I do want Downton to be my future.
33:41I'm glad.
33:42You must have thought me an awful prig when I first arrived.
33:45Not a prig.
33:46Just a man thrust into something he never wanted or envisaged.
33:50I could only see the absurdity of the whole thing.
33:52I'm sorry.
33:53Well, there are absurdities involved, as I know well enough.
33:56Possibilities, too.
33:57I was blind to them.
33:59I was determined not to let it change me.
34:02It was absurd.
34:03If you don't change, you'd die.
34:04Do you think so?
34:05I'm not sure.
34:06Sometimes I think I hate change.
34:08Well, at least we can comfort ourselves that this will still be here.
34:12Because we saved it.
34:18Thomas is lovely, isn't he?
34:20He's funny and handsome.
34:23And he's got such lovely teeth.
34:26He's not for you, Daisy.
34:28Of course not.
34:29He's too good for me, I know that.
34:30No, he's not too good.
34:32What then?
34:34He's not the boy for you.
34:36And you're not the girl for him.
34:38Isn't that what I just said?
34:42And why would he be?
34:44When he's seen and done so much,
34:47and I've been nowhere and done nothing.
34:50Perhaps Thomas has seen and done more than is good for him.
34:55He's not a ladies' man.
34:58Well, isn't it a blessed relief?
35:00Daisy, Thomas is a troubled soul.
35:05I don't know what you mean, Mrs. Puckmore.
35:08No.
35:10Nothing.
35:11I don't mean anything.
35:13Except if I don't get the ice cream started,
35:16they'll be dining at midnight.
35:23Golly, my corset's tight.
35:26Anna, when you've done that,
35:27would you be an angel and loosen a bit?
35:29The start of the slippery slope.
35:31I'm not putting on weight.
35:33It didn't shrink in the drawer.
35:36Are you coming down?
35:37I don't know why we bother with corsets.
35:40Men don't wear them,
35:40and they look perfectly normal in their clothes.
35:43Not all of them.
35:44She's just showing off.
35:45She'll be on about the vote in a minute.
35:47If you mean, do I think women should have the vote?
35:49Of course I do.
35:50I hope you won't chain yourself to the railings
35:52and end up being force-fed semolina.
35:55What do you think, Anna?
35:56Anna, I think those women are very brave.
35:59Hear, hear.
36:02How did you get on with your dressmaker?
36:04Find anything?
36:06I did.
36:07And she said she can have it done by Friday.
36:09I'm sorry I couldn't come,
36:11but I didn't want to put Matthew off.
36:13Were you pleased with the work on the cottages?
36:15I think they're making a very good job of them.
36:17You must all go and see.
36:19You'll restore a few every year from now on.
36:21It was Matthew's idea.
36:24Old Crips was rather reluctant,
36:26but I'm pleased we went forward.
36:27I suppose it's worth it.
36:29Of course it is.
36:30Because of the people who live in them.
36:32You'll be glad to hear that Matthew's conscience
36:34is much more energetic than mine.
36:36If you'll excuse me, I'm going to bed.
36:37I've rather a headache.
36:39Of course.
36:40Should I bring you something for it?
36:42No, I'll be perfectly fine if I can just lie down.
36:46Mary.
36:50Mary.
36:53Oh, my darling.
36:56What is it?
36:59You heard him.
37:01Matthew this, Matthew that.
37:03Matthew, Matthew, Matthew.
37:07Oh, Mother, don't you see?
37:10He has a son now.
37:11Of course he didn't argue with the end tale.
37:13Why would he?
37:14When he's got what he always wanted.
37:16Your father loves you very much.
37:19He wouldn't fight for me, though.
37:20He wouldn't fight for you because he knew he couldn't win.
37:26You're no better.
37:27What?
37:28You don't care about Matthew getting everything
37:30because you don't think I'm worthy of it.
37:32Mary.
37:33I wish you'd just admit it.
37:35I'm a lost soul to you.
37:37I took a lover with no thought of marriage.
37:39A Turk.
37:40Oh, think of that.
37:43Oh, my dear.
37:49Oh, don't worry, Mama.
37:52You can go down now.
37:54Everything will look better in the morning.
37:56Isn't that what you usually say?
37:59I say it because it's usually true.
38:03The father will wonder where you are.
38:14Don't quarrel with Matthew.
38:16Why shouldn't I?
38:18Because one day you may need him.
38:23Oh, I see.
38:25When I've ruined myself,
38:26I must have a powerful protector to hide behind.
38:29I must have a powerful protector to hide behind.
39:02I'll tell you off.
39:05But I like to hear you play.
39:09Where are they all?
39:11Busy, I suppose.
39:14Haven't you got anything to do?
39:17Yes, I have.
39:19Of course I have.
39:23You mustn't let Thomas get you down.
39:25He's just jealous.
39:27Everyone likes you better than him.
39:30Not everyone.
39:31Then she's a foolish girl
39:33and she doesn't deserve you.
39:34Though why am I encouraging you
39:36forget all that
39:38for ten years at least.
39:40You're a kind woman, Mrs Hughes.
39:43I don't know
39:43how this house would run without you.
39:46I don't, truly.
39:48Stop flanneling and get on
39:50before I betray you to Mr Carson.
39:53Well, I don't know.
40:26Oh, is there anything more thrilling than a new frog?
40:29I suppose not, m'lady.
40:32You shall have one too.
40:36I thought this would be suitable for your interview.
40:38I won't be wearing it, m'lady.
40:40Of course you will.
40:41We have to make you look like a successful professional woman.
40:47What is it?
40:48What's happened?
40:50Well, I won't wear it because I'm not going.
40:54Well, they've cancelled the appointment.
40:57They've found someone more suited for the post and better qualified.
41:02This time...
41:03Let's face it.
41:05There will never be anyone less suited for the post or worse qualified than I am.
41:09That isn't true.
41:13You'll see.
41:14We're not giving up.
41:16No one hits the balls over the first arrow.
41:25I've put out the Rundle candlesticks for dinner tonight.
41:30Oh.
41:30I'm sorry.
41:31I'll come back later.
41:33No, stay, please.
41:35I've got something I'd like to talk to you about.
41:37If you've a minute.
41:48Before I first came here as head housemate, I was walking out with a farmer.
41:56When I told him I'd taken a job at Downton, he asked me to marry him.
42:00I was a farmer's daughter from Argyle, so I knew the life.
42:04He was very nice.
42:06But then I came here and I did well and I didn't want to give it up.
42:11So I told him no and he marries someone else.
42:16She died three years ago and last month he wrote asking to see me again.
42:24And I agreed because all this time I've wondered.
42:28Go on.
42:31I met him the other night.
42:34We had dinner at the Grantham Arms and after he took me to the fair.
42:38And he was horrible and fat and red-faced and you couldn't think what you ever saw in him.
42:44He was still a nice man.
42:46He is still a nice man.
42:49Well, he was a bit red-faced and his suit was a little tight, but none of that matters.
42:55In the real ways, he hadn't changed.
42:59And he proposed again and you accepted?
43:15In many ways, I wanted to accept.
43:20But I'm not that farm girl anymore.
43:25I was flattered, of course, but...
43:29I've changed, Mr. Cass.
43:34Life's altered you as it's altered me.
43:38And what would be the point of living if we didn't let life change us?
43:46You won't be leaving, then?
43:52You'd better come.
43:53Mrs. Patmore's on the rampage.
43:55She wants the key to the store cupboard.
43:57You know how angry she gets.
43:57She hasn't got one of her own.
43:58Nor will she have.
44:00Not while I'm housekeeper here.
44:03Leaving?
44:04When would I ever find the time?
44:06I have to go.
44:07Chapter 9.
44:08To Mary, to Mrs. Cass.
44:15Whatever is holding similar.
44:18She was going on about her new frock.
44:28We'd better go in without her, or it's not fair on Mrs. Patmore.
44:32Oh, is her cooking so precisely, darned?
44:35You couldn't tell.
44:36Oh, I think her food is delicious.
44:44Naturally.
44:47Hmm.
45:02Good evening, everyone.
45:21Good evening, everyone.
45:52Good evening, everyone.
46:06Good evening, everyone.
