00:00:59Jane, do you know that if you run away from your wedding with the Earl of Winding, the Fenwick family
00:01:03will be ruined completely?
00:01:16The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family, before Sir Reginald ruined it, indeed.
00:01:21If not for some old favour the Fenwicks once did the late Earl, it's hard to imagine this match ever
00:01:25being considered at all.
00:01:41Miss, Mr. Vale has come to hurry things along twice already.
00:01:47I know.
00:01:51Miss, you can't go in like this.

00:16:10Edward.
00:16:18This isn't helpful.
00:16:49Letta.
00:17:05God, how could I dream
00:17:06something like that about him?
00:17:08I must be out of my mind.
00:17:10My lady, breakfast is ready.
00:17:15Coming!
00:17:29I was unsure of your preferences,
00:17:32so I asked the cook to prepare a variety.
00:17:38He arranged all of this. What does he take me for?
00:17:41It would appear that his lordship
00:17:42is determined to keep you abundantly supplied.
00:17:55I shall do my best to return in time for the gathering at Whitmore this evening.
00:18:07Lady Wyndham.
00:18:09How lovely to find you here.
00:18:13And all on your own.
00:18:16Rupert.
00:18:17You know Lady Wyndham, I believe.
00:18:19Miss Fenwick.
00:18:22My apologies, Lady Winford.
00:18:24The title still takes one by surprise, I must admit.
00:18:27Good evening, Miss Vane.
00:18:29Mr. Bellamy.
00:18:30Rupert and I have some happy news.
00:18:32Yes.
00:18:32We're to be formally engaged at the McKeelmas Hall.
00:18:35Dorothea was gracious enough to accept me.
00:18:38Though, I suspect she rather enjoys making me wait.
00:18:41Our union, of course, has been rather more conventional.
00:18:45Years of acquaintance.
00:18:47Shared society.
00:18:48A genuine understanding of one another's character.
00:18:51How refreshing that some marriages may still be arranged so expeditiously.
00:18:58My lady, a message for you.
00:19:07Cannot return to Thornwith before midnight.
00:19:10Enjoy the party.
00:19:16Another entire evening to yourself.
00:19:18One cannot help but wonder.
00:19:20Had you known?
00:19:22Why bother to attend at all?
00:19:23Lord Wyndham chose to marry me, Dorothea.
00:19:26I've never felt the need to examine his reasons too closely.
00:19:30Come, Rupert.
00:19:31It's been ages since I last danced.
00:19:34You must indulge me this evening.
00:19:52Lady Wyndham.
00:19:53What a fortunate coincidence.
00:19:55Mr. Bellman.
00:19:56I assume your fiancƩ is inside.
00:19:58Ah, yes.
00:19:59I stepped out for some air and seemed to have lost my way.
00:20:03You look very well, Lady Winford.
00:20:05Marriage suits you.
00:20:06I believe I should return home.
00:20:08No need to hurry.
00:20:08It's a fine night.
00:20:09That's enough, Mr. Bellman.
00:20:11Come now, Elizabeth.
00:20:12A woman as young as you, as lovely as you, deserves far more than a cold bed and a husband...
00:20:19That's enough.
00:20:21Mr. Bellamy.
00:20:22I mean it kindly.
00:20:34Good heavens, how'd I end up here?
00:20:37My lady, I'm coming.
00:20:51Lady Wyndham.
00:20:53You are going the wrong way.
00:20:55Allow me to show you out.
00:21:03Then let me be plain, Mr. Bellamy.
00:21:06Leave these grounds at once.
00:21:10And who exactly is meant to make them?
00:21:22There is no need to be alarmed.
00:21:24I only wish to talk.
00:21:26Then speak from where you stand.
00:21:30My dear.
00:21:35Stop!
00:21:39What do you think you're doing?
00:21:43Dorothea, you must forgive me.
00:21:44I was only trying to remove myself from a most uncomfortable situation.
00:21:48Lady Wyndham sought me out.
00:21:49Elizabeth!
00:21:50How dare you try and scare my fiancƩ at a gathering like this!
00:21:53That is not-
00:21:54I mean no disrespect.
00:21:55But I am a man of honour and I think it best to be plain.
00:21:58Good Lord!
00:21:59Did she really try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancƩ?
00:22:04I've long suspected she wasn't quite respectable.
00:22:08I shall inform Lord Edward at once he'll have you turned out of Thornwood without hesitation.
00:22:12Now, apologize to my fiancƩ.
00:22:14At once.
00:22:16Miss Vane, you will address me correctly or you will not address me at all.
00:22:20You are not worth the courtesy.
00:22:37My lord, thank god you're here.
00:22:40Lady Winford approached Rupert herself.
00:22:43We were only trying to-
00:22:44When did he arrive?
00:22:45How much did he hear?
00:22:47Does he believe them?
00:22:48Are you hurt?
00:22:54Edward!
00:23:03My apologies.
00:23:05I seem to have arrived a moment too late.
00:23:09Good Lord!
00:23:10Has Lord Wyndham really ruined a hundred-year-old Yen Mays?
00:23:14For a wife of such low birth.
00:23:20Let every person here who has dishonored my wife hear me.
00:23:24Before this night is over, you will regret it.
00:23:27Yes, my lord!
00:23:28Edward!
00:23:29What?
00:23:30My lord!
00:23:31I am your cousin!
00:23:32You cannot treat me like this!
00:23:35If you mean to say you're my mother's cousin's granddaughter,
00:23:38I've over fifty hours just like you.
00:23:46Grateful girl!
00:23:48What on earth possessed you to insult the Countess of Wyndham?
00:23:52You wretched boy!
00:23:54I paid off your gambling seats with the Earl's own money!
00:23:57How dare you make yourself a nuisance before him and his wife!
00:24:03You have endured enough.
00:24:05Home awaits us.
00:24:10Edward, you must know.
00:24:11I did not seek Mr. Bellarmine out.
00:24:13I...
00:24:14I know precisely what kind of man he is.
00:24:17I believe you, Elizabeth.
00:24:18We have been married for a few days now.
00:24:21We have.
00:24:23And I find I know remarkably little about you.
00:24:26I believe goes both ways.
00:24:28Perhaps this presents an opportunity to remedy that.
00:24:31We might begin...
00:24:33With a kiss.
00:24:35He's asking to kiss me.
00:24:37On horseback.
00:24:38Out in the open, in the middle of the night.
00:24:41God knows how long I've waited for this moment.
00:24:44You have my permission.
00:25:01It's alright.
00:25:02He's settled now.
00:25:09We're home.
00:25:14My lord.
00:25:14My lady.
00:25:22I'll see you shortly, Elizabeth.
00:25:25Shortly?
00:25:26What does he mean shortly?
00:25:28Tonight?
00:25:29I thought I had rather expected.
00:25:31I seem to have expected it more than I realized.
00:25:33Yes.
00:25:33Shortly then.
00:25:49Of course.
00:25:50Of all nights, it would be this one.
00:26:01Come in.
00:26:05There's something I must tell you.
00:26:07It concerns a...
00:26:08Domest...
00:26:09Domestic matter.
00:26:12I see.
00:26:16Does he?
00:26:17Does he truly?
00:26:18Please, God.
00:26:20Let him understand without making me say it outright.
00:26:23Come.
00:26:35No.
00:26:36Not like this.
00:26:39How are you feeling?
00:26:41Rather better, thank you.
00:26:43Forgive me.
00:26:44Elizabeth.
00:26:45Yes?
00:26:45Stop apologizing.
00:26:47Yes.
00:26:48Very well.
00:26:51Elizabeth.
00:26:52Elizabeth.
00:26:53I see you, baby.
00:26:56Yes.
00:26:59I see you, baby.
00:27:00Yes.
00:27:01Yes.
00:27:02Yes.
00:27:03It's not.
00:27:11No, no, no.
00:27:13No, no, no.

00:27:15No, no.
00:27:17No, no.

00:29:17Friday would suit me perfectly well
00:29:20I feel quite confident
00:29:21I shall be
00:29:23equal to my obligations
00:29:25by next Friday
00:29:25I get out of college
00:29:55May I ask you
00:30:05Go on.
00:30:07Vale will see you in.
00:30:08I shall be long.
00:30:12Of course.
00:30:51I shall be long.
00:30:55You're so young to find.
00:30:59Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion.
00:31:03I am...
00:31:13Lady Wyndham.
00:31:16I had wondered when we should meet.
00:31:19I am Cecilia.
00:31:21Lady Adelaine was called away unexpectedly.
00:31:24She asked me to receive you in her place.
00:31:27That's her.
00:31:29Cecilia Marlock.
00:31:30Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:33The woman Edward makes life forever.
00:31:37Your grace.
00:31:38The pleasure is mine.
00:31:40Please, none of that.
00:31:41We're practically family now.
00:31:43Adelaine will be back shortly.
00:31:44In the meantime, Georgina, Edward's younger sister, is in the South Garden.
00:31:47Shall we?
00:31:48Lady Adelaide summoned me.
00:31:49Yet she's here.
00:31:50Was she hoping Edward would meet with her instead?
00:31:59She carries herself as if she owns the place.
00:32:15So you've finally emerged from your greenhouse, sissy.
00:32:19After all these years in London, let's see whether your aim has suffered.
00:32:24I've been waiting here for our guest, as my mother asked.
00:32:27Elizabeth, this is Georgiana.
00:32:28We call her Georgie.
00:32:29Georgie, this is Elizabeth.
00:32:30Ah, the new Lady Wyndham.
00:32:32And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:34I read.
00:32:34I write.
00:32:35I am sure Lady Wyndham has many other accomplishments, Georgie.
00:32:39Of course she does.
00:32:39Most people do when they can't shoot.
00:32:41No offense, Elizabeth.
00:32:42It simply requires a certain constitution.
00:32:46Not everyone has it.
00:32:47Perhaps Lady Wyndham would care to try.
00:32:49It is only fair to offer.
00:32:50Oh, by all means.
00:32:51Bring another gun.
00:32:55A gun for beginners.
00:32:59You know your way around guns?
00:33:01Elizabeth, you needn't oblige.
00:33:04Georgie is only teasing.
00:33:06You can watch if you prefer.
00:33:20You have three.
00:33:22I should not be greedy.
00:33:36Mother.
00:33:37Where on earth did you find her?
00:33:39She found me.
00:33:41I like her.
00:33:44So do I.
00:33:51Come in.
00:33:57My mother asked me to convey her apologies.
00:34:01She had no intention of neglecting you today.
00:34:03I understand.
00:34:05Georgiana and the Duchess of Ravensbrow made the afternoon quite agree her for.
00:34:11It's Friday.
00:34:12So it is.
00:34:14I must admit,
00:34:16I am not entirely certain how one is meant to begin.
00:34:18Nor am I.
00:34:24I should warn you there are rather a great many hooks.
00:34:27Twenty-three.
00:34:31I see.
00:34:46I confess I don't quite know
00:34:49what
00:34:50I meant to do with my...
00:34:52Elizabeth,
00:34:54you are not supposed to do anything.
00:35:04The desk.
00:35:06I thought you might find it easier
00:35:08to begin with.
00:35:10I did not realize how warm his hands would feel.
00:35:22Breathe.
00:35:25You are going to suffocate yourself.
00:35:34Are you ready?
00:35:35I...
00:35:37I...
00:35:40I...
00:35:41I'll take that as a yes.
00:35:44Let's begin.
00:35:48Let's begin.
00:35:55Let's begin.
00:35:55Let's begin.
00:35:58Let's begin.
00:36:07Let's begin.
00:36:10Let's begin.
00:36:11Let's begin.
00:36:11Let's begin.
00:36:11Let's begin.
00:36:12Let's begin.
00:36:12Let's begin.
00:36:13Let's begin.
00:36:14Let's begin.

00:44:02one
00:44:17East Wing, old timber frames.
00:44:20It's three stories of curtains, ends in correspondence, and everything Edward Window has ever cared to preserve.
00:44:27And now a single oil lamp shall make it all disappear.
00:44:37Lady Winfield and her lover.
00:44:39Once Edward lays eyes on their charred bodies, he will surely return to me.
00:44:55Elizabeth!
00:45:09My lord!
00:45:10It began in the lower store in...
00:45:11Where's Lady Winda?
00:45:12We have not been able to find Lady Winda, but we brought someone out from the East Wing.
00:45:18A man.
00:45:20Elizabeth.
00:45:21She's still inside.
00:45:27And just how are you so sure Lady Winda is in there?
00:45:30What were you doing at Thornfield in the middle of the night?
00:45:33Edward, I'm so sorry.
00:45:35I did not wish to be the one...
00:45:36What is that in your hand?
00:45:39Edward, if there's Elizabeth's handwriting...
00:45:42I received a note.
00:45:43I believed it to be...
00:45:44You believed it to be from my wife.
00:45:49Edward, you must see that all evidence points to Elizabeth and this man.
00:45:53Elizabeth is still inside.
00:45:55Of course she's inside.
00:45:56That wicked adult is sure to be caged and paraded around the square.
00:46:02Edward!
00:46:06Miss, don't!
00:46:07It's not safe in there!
00:46:10My brother!
00:46:11Henry, you must save my brother!
00:46:13Miss, I'm sorry!
00:46:17He ran headfirst into that fire.
00:46:20For her.
00:46:29Henry, how did the fire start?
00:46:31Why are all of you just standing here?
00:46:32And you!
00:46:33What are you doing here?
00:46:35You're not stuck in the fire?
00:46:37Why on earth would I venture to the East Wing in the middle of the night?
00:46:40You wretched creature.
00:46:42How did you get so lucky?
00:46:43No matter.
00:46:44Edward just ran to his death.
00:46:46You had no one to rely on me.
00:46:47And as a duchess, shall be my god-begin right to walk all over you.
00:46:51My lady, his lordship has gone into the fire.
00:46:54You what?
00:46:55Why?
00:46:56Elizabeth!
00:46:58Elizabeth!
00:46:59My brother is still in there!
00:47:00What did we do?
00:47:01He ran in because he thought you were trapped inside!
00:47:03Oh dear!
00:47:03How did this happen?
00:47:05Let go, Georgiana.
00:47:06No!
00:47:14She didn't write that note.
00:47:17She can't have written that note.
00:47:25It was you.
00:47:28Cecilia, is it true?
00:47:31No!
00:47:32I had nothing to do with that letter!
00:47:35He's slanting me!
00:47:38Edward!
00:47:43Elizabeth.
00:47:44Go back.
00:47:56Foolish woman.
00:47:57Reckless man.
00:48:07I thought I'd lost you.
00:48:10You're a snake.
00:48:11You're a snake.
00:48:12You're a snake.
00:48:14You're a snake.
00:48:16I...
00:48:17I was wrong about that.
00:48:25Not every wife would run into a burning building for her husband.
00:48:28Why did you do it?
00:48:30You went in there for me.
00:48:31I couldn't leave you to die.
00:48:33Oh, Elizabeth.
00:48:34Whatever am I going to do with you?
00:48:36You.
00:48:52Get in before the water goes cold.
00:48:57Edward.
00:48:58That note Edgar received, it wasn't written by me.
00:49:02I know.
00:49:02As it happens, I also received a note, signed with Edgar's name.
00:49:06But I did not go to meet him.
00:49:08I'm glad to hear that.
00:49:11That's all?
00:49:14It was Cecilia.
00:49:16She did all of this.
00:49:20Cecilia.
00:49:22She is my mother's goddaughter.
00:49:24She grew up around us.
00:49:25There was a time when certain arrangements were considered by my mother, by Cecilia's family.
00:49:33I knew they were in favor of me.
00:49:35Who were you?
00:49:36I've never made any promises to Cecilia.
00:49:39If she had hopes, they were not hopes I invited or confirmed.
00:49:43As for me, I forgot about her entirely on the morning I married you.
00:49:52Edgar Lenniston and I, we grew up together as well.
00:49:55He taught me to make charcoal drawings.
00:49:58That is the whole of it, Edward.
00:50:00There's nothing more.
00:50:01Well then, now there are no secrets between us.
00:50:05Now there are no secrets between us.
00:50:09It's Friday today.
00:50:11Yes, indeed it is.
00:50:13There are about two hours left until dawn.
00:50:16Perhaps you might like to watch the sunrise with me?
00:50:21Yes, I'd like that.
00:50:28May I?
00:50:31Yes, you may.
00:50:40This.
00:50:42This is what home feels like.
00:50:54My lord, the Dowtridge Duchess of Ravensborough has called upon you.
00:50:58I informed her that you are not at leisure, but she still has not taken her leave.
00:51:03Show her in, Henry.
00:51:11Thank you for seeing me, Edward.
00:51:13Say what you have come to say, Cecilia.
00:51:16You know very well why I am here.
00:51:19Georgiana won't see me.
00:51:20Your mother hasn't replied to my last three letters.
00:51:24And you've issued a formal notice.
00:51:25I'm no longer welcome at Thornfield, Girth, nor at any Wyndham property in the county.
00:51:30That's correct.
00:51:32Edward, please.
00:51:33We've known each other since we were little.
00:51:35You carried me home on your back when I broke my ankle at the Thornfield harvest.
00:51:39Yes, I recall.
00:51:40I also recall that during that same autumn, you told me that you intended to marry someone wealthier than a
00:51:45mere earl.
00:51:47Such was my obligation, Edward.
00:51:49You know my family's circumstances.
00:51:51You know I had no choice.
00:51:53And you, you waited too, Edward.
00:51:56All these years.
00:51:57A Thornfield without a mistress, without a bride to be.
00:52:00Do not be misled into thinking I was waiting for you.
00:52:03That's not...
00:52:04Don't say that, Edward.
00:52:05You know that's not what I...
00:52:06You've been a widow for eight months.
00:52:08And in those eight months, you've come to Shropshire, established yourself at Ravenscore,
00:52:11cultivate my sister's trust, and forge a letter designed to do nothing less than destroy my wife's reputation.
00:52:18I did what I believed was.
00:52:19I wasn't finished, Vasilia.
00:52:21You also set fire to the east wing of my home.
00:52:24You should be grateful that my wife was not there last night.
00:52:27Otherwise, you would not be standing in my study, but rather in my dungeon.
00:52:31She's not right for you, Edward.
00:52:33Whatever you feel now, it will pass.
00:52:35This afternoon, you will return to your home in London.
00:52:38And you will not come back.
00:52:40No, you can't treat me this way.
00:52:42I'm the Dowage Guchess of Ravenshile.
00:52:45Do not forget that I am not just the Earl of Wyndham.
00:52:49I am also the Prince Regent's companion.
00:52:52Do you wish what you have done to become known through all of London?
00:52:55I suggest you preserve what's left of your dignity, Sushi.
00:52:58Do you love her?
00:53:01Yes, I do.
00:53:13Good.
00:53:15Now it's time to deal with the next one.
00:53:26She came back for him.
00:53:29And now it's all gone up in flames.
00:53:47May I come in?
00:53:49Please.
00:53:50I didn't know if Cecilia would attempt to harm you.
00:53:52I know.
00:53:53I'm sorry.
00:53:55I owe you an apology, Elizabeth.
00:53:57Several, in fact.
00:53:58I forgive you.
00:54:00So, do you reckon we could be friends from now on?
00:54:02Of course.
00:54:08Georgiana.
00:54:10I know you love your brother.
00:54:13And I do too.
00:54:22In all the years I've known him,
00:54:25he's never been serious about anyone the way he is about you.
00:54:28I know.
00:54:30By the way,
00:54:31you shoot better than I do.
00:54:33You're not a bad shot yourself.
00:54:37I know.
00:54:44I'm leaving to London as a painter summoned by the king.
00:54:48Yes.
00:54:49I had heard rumours of such an arrangement.
00:54:52The night of the fire,
00:54:54I saw him run into the flames to look for you.
00:54:57Without hesitation.
00:54:59That was the moment I knew had lost you.
00:55:01May London be everything you deserve, Edgar.
00:55:03I hope you paint something magnificent.
00:55:10Give my regards to Lord Wyndham.
00:55:23Edgar.
00:55:25He's gone.
00:55:27I know.
00:55:29The king offered him a very generous commission.
00:55:31If he is a talented man,
00:55:33it would have been a waste.
00:55:35Edward.
00:55:36Yes?
00:55:41I feel as if I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.
00:55:45I'll take that as a compliment.
00:55:48Come.
00:55:49My lord.
00:55:56Elizabeth!
00:56:01Elizabeth.
00:56:04Elizabeth.
00:56:11Elizabeth!
00:56:22The fall did her no lasting harm, my lord.
00:56:26However, I've noticed that Lady Winford
00:56:28is showing signs of fatigue.
00:56:36Pardon me?
00:56:38Congratulations, my lord.
00:56:41Yes.
00:56:43Thank you, Dr. Holt.
00:57:02So, we're going to have a child.
00:57:09Yes.
00:57:11Yes, we are.
00:57:12This is beyond my wildest dreams, Elizabeth.
00:57:18I'm sure you will want to tell your mother.
00:57:25I shall have the carriage prepared for Thursday.
00:57:27Vale will accompany you.
00:57:29And take a warm blanket.
00:57:31The mornings are cold now.
00:57:32I know I needn't thank the man I married.
00:57:36But I'd like to thank you on behalf of my mother, Edward.
00:58:24I don't know.
00:58:58Oh, Elizabeth. To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:59:05Come with me, Mother. Now.
00:59:10This is my house. She doesn't leave without my permission.
00:59:17Are you challenging the Countess of Wyndham, Sir Reginald?
00:59:29I'm pregnant.
00:59:31You're pregnant. Oh, God bless you, my child.
00:59:39Mother.
00:59:40Mother. I want to take you to Thornwood.
00:59:46You're going to chase him after us.
00:59:48You know how he gets when he's angry.
00:59:52Then we sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:10Margaret!
01:00:14Keep moving.
01:00:16Don't look back.
01:00:20Elizabeth!
01:00:25It's Edward!
01:00:40He's coming after us!
01:00:44Let him come.
01:00:50Lord Wyndham.
01:00:52What an honor.
01:00:53Though I must tell you, this is a family matter.
01:00:56It is for me as well.
01:00:58Lady Margaret leaves with us tonight, and you shall not follow her.
01:01:01She's my wife, Lord Wyndham.
01:01:03By law, she's required to...
01:01:05By law, yes.
01:01:08Shall we discuss law, Sir Reginald?
01:01:18Come in.
01:01:25My Lord, I have come to take my wife home.
01:01:30These are private accounts, my Lord. You have no right to...
01:01:32The Fenwood estate carries debts to four creditors in this council.
01:01:37Two of those creditors sold their notes last month.
01:01:40To me.
01:01:41The roof you sleep under, the fields you work on, the horses in your stable.
01:01:45The papers holding your whole world together are sitting in my solicitor's office in Shrewsbury.
01:01:50My Lord, I have always treated my family with the utmost...
01:01:55I have seen perfectly clearly how you treat your family.
01:01:59Lady Margaret's personal income will be administered through my estate, to be used as she pleases.
01:02:05If I receive word from any source that you have interfered with this agreement,
01:02:08you will lose your house, your land, and whatever is left of your name in this county.
01:02:18My wife sends her regards.
01:02:32He'll take me away, I know it.
01:02:35Oh, Lord, that man will never let me leave him.
01:02:37No.
01:02:40Edward will handle everything.
01:02:43I saw them in the study this morning.
01:02:45As did I.
01:02:48Elizabeth.
01:02:50Is he...
01:02:51Is he a good man, your Lord?
01:03:03He's the best man I've ever met, Mother.
01:03:05Mother.
01:03:16Now let me tell ya
01:03:19Baby, it's working.
01:03:37How long will you be gone for?
01:03:38Four months, perhaps.
01:03:44I don't wish to go.
01:03:45I know. I know you don't.
01:03:49Elizabeth, I...
01:03:51It's Friday, you know.
01:04:00I'll be gentle.
01:04:01So will I.
01:04:04Don't be too gentle.
01:04:18Promise you'll write me.
01:04:21Every day.
01:04:38My Lord.
01:04:40It is the 14th of March, and your child has spent this morning using my ribs as a set of
01:04:46piano keys.
01:04:47Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy, and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:52Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:53We both eagerly await your return.
01:05:04A letter from London, my lady.
01:05:06In his lordship's own hand.
01:05:11Elizabeth, your letter from the 8th arrived my morning.
01:05:15I have read it four times, front to back.
01:05:18Today I write to tell you I am coming home.
01:05:21I find I have a great deal to tell our child, and even more to tell you.
01:05:26Did you hear that, Edward?
01:05:29Our baby's ready to meet you.
01:05:33My lady, there are two gentlemen at the door.
01:05:35Officers, I believe.
01:05:36They are carrying a sealed summon.
01:05:46Lady Winverd, we are here to deliver a summons from His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent.
01:05:50Your presence is urgently required in London, and the matter is one of considerable importance.
01:05:58Lady Winverd, may I have the night to prepare?
01:06:00I'm afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady.
01:06:03The carriage is prepared.
01:06:07Very well.
01:06:09Allow me five minutes to gather my hands.
01:06:21My lady, the seal on this carriage.
01:06:24I need time to verify it.
01:06:29Lady Wyndham, I'm sure you don't want to anger the Prince Regent.
01:06:44That sound.
01:06:46This isn't the road to London.
01:06:48It's the cliffhound.
01:06:52Stop this carriage!
01:06:54Stop the carriage!
01:06:55Immediately!
01:07:11Elizabeth!
01:07:12Elizabeth!
01:07:37Edward!
01:07:38Take my hand!
01:07:49Edward!
01:07:50Yes?
01:07:51What is it?
01:07:52I think...
01:07:53I think the child is coming.
01:08:13My lord, this lodge is currently occupied by His Royal Highness.
01:08:17Move.
01:08:18Move.
01:08:40Your first child?
01:08:41Yes.
01:08:43I have been informed about the incident on the cliff road.
01:08:45The carriage, the summons.
01:08:46Who was it?
01:08:47A widow.
01:08:47Recently returned from London.
01:08:49She forged the seal.
01:08:51She also set fire to the East Ring of my home in October.
01:08:54The Dowager Gretnas?
01:08:55Yes, Your Highness.
01:08:56I assure you that this matter will be investigated fully.
01:08:59She will bring no more trouble to your household.
01:09:02Thank you, Your Highness.
01:09:04And for this...
01:09:05For allowing us in.
01:09:06Don't thank me for that.
01:09:07Thank my wife.
01:09:08She heard the commotion at the gate and gave the order before I could even open my mouth.
01:09:12She sounds like a formidable woman.
01:09:16That's one way to put it.
01:09:25My lord, Lady Windery is well.
01:09:28You have a son.
01:09:41He has your eyes.
01:09:45Why am I there?
01:09:48Why am I there?
01:09:57Her Royal Highness, the Princess Regent.
01:10:07Jane.
01:10:21How does a woman who ran away from her own wedding become Princess Regent?
01:10:28It all started with a marsh.
01:10:30I beg your pardon?
01:10:32On that day, I fled the carriage.
01:10:35Cut across the North Field.
01:10:36I did not know there was a marsh.
01:10:40Before I knew it, I was up to my waist.
01:10:42And then?
01:10:43There was a great deal of noise coming from the trees.
01:10:46Dogs, a horse, and a man who looked rather displeased to find a woman wading about in his marsh.
01:10:51He pulled me out himself.
01:10:53Gave me his coat before asking my name.
01:10:55He was unexpectedly decent.
01:10:57And then you told him your name, I presume?
01:10:59Yes.
01:11:00Then I told him my name.
01:11:01And he told me his.
01:11:03And neither of us went home for a very long time.
01:11:06Are you happy, Jane?
01:11:13Are you?
01:11:15More than I had ever thought was possible.
01:11:24The Prince Regent will present honours tonight.
01:11:26Did any of you receive warning of this?
01:11:28None at all.
01:11:29Which means he wants it to be a surprise.
01:11:31But who shall it be?
01:11:32Cavendish?
01:11:33Ashmore?
01:11:34I heard it's not even a man.
01:11:37Apparently, the honour is to be a stowed upon a couple.
01:11:41A husband.
01:11:43And wife.
01:11:44Good heavens!
01:11:46A joint honour!
01:11:47And what title shall be awarded to them?
01:11:51Are you nervous?
01:11:52I'd be lying if I said I wasn't.
01:11:55Do you remember when we first met?
01:11:59Yes.
01:12:00When those doors opened, you were the spitting image of a well-behaved young lady.
01:12:04And you looked like an unbearably serious old man who had never known true happiness.
01:12:08Well, things are different now.
01:12:09This time, when these doors open, I'll be standing right beside you.
01:12:13Shall we?
01:12:19Is that Lady Wyndham?
01:12:22How could Lord Wyndham have...
01:12:25You look magnificent.
01:12:27I know.
01:12:28And I feel magnificent.
01:12:32With the honour of the crowd, and in recognition of their remarkable courage and loyalty, I hereby elevate Lord Edward
01:12:40Wyndham and Lady Elizabeth Wyndham to the rank of Marcus and Martians of Thornfield.
01:12:51Thank you very much for affecting the Highlights
01:12:54Thank you, Gott.
01:12:54Yay!
01:13:03Thank you!
