Soames' (Damian Lewis) hired detective locates Irene (Gina McKee) in Paris and he again pays her a visit begging her to return as his wife. He is desperate for a son but she flatly refuses him. He is convinced there is something between her and Jolyon (Rupert Graves) and when he confronts her, she refuses to deny it. He decides to seek a divorce and marry Annette (Beatriz Batarda). When time comes for Annette to give birth, the doctor presents Soames with a horrible choice but he makes his decision and rejoices in the birth of his daughter Fleur. Jolyon and Irene also live together and she gives birth to a boy, Jon, just a few months after they are married. The birth gives Irene and June (Gillian Kearney) an opportunity to reconcile. Among the younger generation, both Jolly Forsyte (Christian Coulson) and Val Dartie (Julian Overden) join the Imperial Yeomanry and go off to South Africa to fight in the Boer War. Only one will return.

00:16I will sit with her now.
00:23No, don't go.
00:30I can stay.
00:50The ship docks at ten.
00:53Tomorrow night?
00:54No, morning.
00:57It means I'll have to break the news.
01:01Miss June will be desolate.
01:05Mrs Herron?
01:07She is asleep at last.
01:10We've kept some dinner for you, Mum.
01:13And Anne has aired the guest room.
01:16Young Mr Jolian and Miss June are due back in the morning.
01:18No, I cannot trouble you. I'm sorry.
01:21It's no trouble, Mum.
01:23I have appointments to keep. I must get home tonight.
01:30Beacon will be with you directly, Mum.
01:34Sad day.
01:37Yes.
01:39Yes, it is indeed.
01:41For all of us.
01:42Yes, it is.
01:44Yes, it is.
02:09Yes, it is.
02:13you're a jewel
02:15you brought me laughter
02:17and joy
02:20and I despair
02:21that I wasn't born later
02:23and I thank you
02:31if we'd had any idea
02:34we should never have gone away
02:37never
02:39was he in pain
02:42he didn't seem to be, sir
02:45it was most unexpected
02:47he was not in pain, no
02:49but he was agitated
02:52he was often thus
02:53when Mrs Heron came
02:56Mrs Heron
02:58the lovely lady
03:01Mrs Irene Heron
03:02she came to give piano lessons
03:06and stayed to dinner

03:22Jolyon
03:31sorry
03:34I've just got back from the solicitors
03:39heirlooms
03:44they're my grandfathers
03:48a sign he'd finally arrived
03:53and gran left them to you
03:57I suppose
04:00this means that I've finally arrived
04:08there is another bequest
04:09one that I wasn't expecting
04:12he left
04:1315,000 pounds
04:15to Irene
04:20she works fast
04:21how long were we gone?
04:22three months?
04:23I'm sure she didn't set out
04:24oh, Irene never sets out
04:26things just fall into her lap
04:28time after time
04:29June
04:30thank you for the warning
04:36does this mean that she'll be at the funeral?
04:39no
04:41that's something to be thankful for at least
04:49fear no more the heat of the sun
04:52nor the furious winter's rages
04:55thou thy worldly task
04:57has done
04:58home art gone
04:59and tamed thy wages
05:02golden lads and girls
05:04all must
05:04as chimney sweepers
05:05come to dust
05:09fear no more the frown of the great
05:14thou art past the tyrant's stroke
05:18care no more to clothe and eat
05:20to thee the reed is as the oak
05:23the scepter learning physic
05:25must all follow this
05:26and come to dust
05:29fear no more the lightning flash
05:32nor the all dreaded thunder stone
05:34fear not slander
05:36sense your rash
05:37thou hast finished joy and moan
05:40all lovers young
05:42all lovers must consign to thee
05:45to come to dust
05:59walls in ebony and magnolia
06:01illuminations by electricity
06:03let me guess
06:04you're taking mental notes
06:05under instruction from the arms
06:07they've been desperate to see this place for years
06:09they should have graced us with their presence then
06:11it's more than a mile from high park
06:13and hester gets palpitations
06:15no
06:15besides
06:16the reality never lives up to the description
06:18who taught you that
06:19darting
06:20what
06:21nothing dear
06:22so this is what all the fuss was about
06:24oh shit
06:27what do you think
06:27what do you think
06:28that plane reminds me of a prison
06:29no no you'd know
06:31original i suppose the old buccaneer
06:33good of you to say so
06:36my condolences julian thank you we appreciate your coming
06:41seems we only ever meet at funerals
06:45mercifully
06:51i'm so sorry julian you must be devastated
06:54i just wish we could have been here
06:57one always feels one could have done more
07:00you were reconciled at least
07:02that's
07:02some consternation
07:05but it feels like the end of an era
07:06it is
07:07first foresight to be buried in a plot
07:10other than the families
07:12well i say plot
07:13more like a scrubby piece of field
07:16flowers anywhere
07:17weeds probably
07:18where's the dignity in that
07:20you've heard about the will i suppose
07:22yes
07:2215 000 to try beanie
07:24i know
07:25typical isn't it
07:27oh june
07:28hello
07:29typical of what
07:32of gran
07:32to remember the underdog
07:34irene may be persona non grata
07:37in some circles
07:37in some circles
07:38but she is strictly speaking
07:40still a foresight
07:41and she was very good to gran at the end
07:43while you were away
07:45yes
07:46excuse me
07:53the question is
07:55who is going to tell sam's
07:57shh i think he probably knows
08:00hmm
08:00why her i wonder
08:02joden hardly knew her
08:06do you know
08:07what
08:08why joden left all that money to irene
08:10what's her name now

08:17excuse me
08:20excuse me
08:24uh thank you for coming
08:26all of you
08:27for paying your respect
08:30some people retreat
08:32as they get older
08:34not dad
08:36he grew better with age
08:37his horizon has broadened
08:41he became more flexible
08:44more compassionate
08:47he accepted that different people
08:49might want to live their lives
08:51in different ways
08:54he was a man of
08:56honesty
08:56bravery
08:59conviction
09:01never afraid to apologize
09:05never afraid to love
09:08he stood for everything that was
09:10great
09:11about the foresight name
09:12yeah yeah
09:16now i i grew up
09:17as as many of you did
09:20trying
09:22failing
09:24to follow in his footsteps
09:28i see no reason to
09:29stop trying now
09:34um
09:37i ask you to raise your glasses
09:49to joelian foresight
09:51joelian foresight
10:08i meant what i said this afternoon
10:12we don't breed men like dad anymore
10:15we're just full of doubt now
10:20and apologetic
10:25smaller
10:26but the world's a more complicated place
10:37if you could turn back the clock
10:42change one thing
10:45what would it be?
10:50it'd be silly i suppose
10:54i don't know
10:55i can't answer that
11:00gran had a long life
11:03but i wish
11:06i wish i'd had a chance to thank him
11:10that would be mine
11:15he did know didn't he
11:17he didn't think that we'd stop loving him
11:20we weren't here to tell him
11:26i don't care if i sound self-pity
11:29blame it on the brandy
11:33there's something ironic isn't there
11:35that all the people i love
11:38really love
11:41all gravitate to her in the end
11:44and they always love irene more
11:50that does sound self-pitying
12:00he could never have loved anyone more than you
12:03myself included
12:06he said so many times
12:10you were his second chance
12:11the light of his life
12:15the beat of his heart
12:26had he discussed the will
12:30i think he knew his time was running out but no
12:36then this was uh
12:38this was quite a shock
12:39yes
12:40the money
12:41yes
12:43not the gesture
12:50how was he
12:52in the end

13:00no
13:00no
13:01no he
13:02he was
13:03too greedy for life
13:06he said his heart was full
13:10he shared some of his thoughts with me
13:15if i'd known
13:17we had so little time
13:18i would have been freer with mine
13:20it's my only regret
13:27he blessed my world jolyon

26:43Is Val home?
26:45A hour ago.
26:47Wouldn't touch his supper, just went straight to bed.
26:53I waited up.
26:57We've been robbed.
27:00No.
27:02Someone broke into the house and stole my pearls.
27:07Nothing else, just my pearls.
27:14Do you remember?
27:15The ones you bought me when Imogen was born?
27:20The ones that led to all that trouble with the bailiffs?
27:24Yes, I remember them all right.
27:29Dash it, Freddy. You must be heartbroken.
27:31Well, I was going to go down to her Scotland yard myself, and then I thought...
27:37I ought to wait till you got in.
27:43Monty?
27:45Monty?
27:45What?
27:49Well, it struck me that the police might think it odd.
27:52That just the pearls went.
27:55Nothing else.
27:57You're accusing me.
27:59I'm asking you.
28:01That's right.
28:03Blame Monty.
28:06Everybody.
28:07Blame Monty.
28:11Oh, don't be a clown, Monty.
28:12Put that away.
28:13I'll put it away, all right?
28:14No, Monty, please.
28:15Live or die, I don't care.
28:16Be quiet, woman!
28:17Sit down!
28:21I'm lower than the servants in this house, and I'm tired of it.
28:25I'm tired of all the questioning,
28:28standing in line, holding out my hand.
28:32I'm tired of life.
28:33Tell my name!
28:35No!
28:56You'll certainly get a few good stories out of this, won't you?
28:58Hmm?
29:00You and your pals?
29:06Darty and the Duff Revolver.
29:07Oh, don't be like that.
29:08Val will laugh, that's for sure.
29:11You've got him like just all the other Forsyte.
29:15Priggish little snob.
29:17So what if I did take the pearls?
29:20I bought them.
29:21I can give them to whoever I like.
29:25Pearls should be for a slender throat, not that turkey gobbler of yours.
29:29Monty!
29:30I gave them to a Spanish beauty, neck like a swan.
29:35Do you know what? She was grateful for them.
29:37I don't want to hear.
29:38No, you don't, do you?
29:40You're a thief!
29:42And a blaggard!
29:46You're the limit, Monty!
29:48You really are!
30:01Huh?
30:04Huh?
30:06Huh?
30:08Huh?
30:10Huh?
30:13Oh, my God.
30:52Oh, my God.
31:12Oh, my God.
31:50Oh, my God.
32:05Oh, my God.
32:12I've been to the Icyum, spoken to George.
32:14Darty's left with Buenos Aires.
32:16He's gone, then.
32:18Sailed this morning.
32:19So, here we are.
32:21Two peas in a pod.
32:25Abandoned birth.
32:31Are you crying, Winifred?
32:33No.
32:36I just thought, you know, once the whiskey had worn off...
32:40We should have him shadowed once he lands.
32:44I'll keep a look once.
32:46The sooner these things are done, the better.
32:47Can you prove cruelty?
32:50Well, he twisted my arm.
32:53Mm-hmm.
32:54Or pointing a pistol coat.
32:56Yeah.
32:58Or being too drunk to undress.
33:00I can't, Soames.
33:03What about the children?
33:04For the sake of the children.
33:06You must move on.
33:07Oh, it's easy for you to say.
33:09I speak from experience.
33:13You're not alone, Winifred.
33:16I want to be out of this state.
33:17Married, yet unmarried.
33:20I want to start again.
33:22Well, good for you.
33:24You don't have children to consider.
33:26I never will unless I change my situation.
33:30There must be something else.
33:33I mean, for me, I mean.
33:35A legal separation.
33:38Separation's not living.
33:39It's limbo.
33:41You must choose divorce.
33:43If you won't consider cruelty, you go for desertion.
33:45There's a way of shortening the two years now.
33:48You apply to the courts for restitution of conjugal rights.
33:51Restitute?
33:51Well, I asked for him back.
33:53It's a game.
33:53Of course you don't want him back, but the court doesn't know that.
33:56And if he disobeys,
33:58then we bring a suit for divorce in six months' time.
34:00If who doesn't obey?
34:02Nobody.
34:05It's his father, isn't it?
34:08Here.
34:09It's Holmes.
34:09Read it.
34:10If you can.
34:16You will not get chance to insult me in my own again.
34:20Own home.
34:24You've brought on yourself.
34:28I shall not ask you for anything again.
34:32Where is he?
34:34Buenos Aires.
34:35I doubt if you could spell it.
34:36Imogen's not to know.
34:38She might notice eventually.
34:40Your mother's petitioning for a divorce.
34:41Soames.
34:42Soames.
34:42Why?
34:43He's gone.
34:45That's humiliating enough.
34:47They'd splash it all over the papers, Ma.
34:50You've seen the muck they print.
34:52He's right, Soames.
34:54I mean, think what it would do to father.
34:56That imogen's coming out.
34:58And especially considering you're going up to Oxford.
35:01Of course.
35:04It's too peacely for words.
35:07No.
35:08No, Soames.
35:10For all our sakes,
35:11we should let sleeping dogs lie.
35:22James?
35:27It's Soames, father.
35:30Soames.
35:32A sensible voice at last.
35:35You've heard of our Buenos Aires.
35:38Buenos Aires is better than bankruptcy.
35:41You won't stop spending there.
35:44That's why we need to settle all connections.
35:46Permanently.
35:48Divorce?
35:50It's not as bad as it sounds.
35:54I've never had a divorce before.
35:57Winifred is resisting, but she'll see sense.
36:01Family's breaking up.
36:03All the rules have changed.
36:06This Kruger business.
36:08We'll be at war in South Africa soon.
36:12Empire's going to part a family with it.
36:15A family will be fine.
36:17We're taking steps.
36:24You should be in bed.
36:26Well, I waited up.
36:28At least you tell me things.
36:30Mother tells you things.
36:31You're very lucky to have her.
36:32She's younger than I am.
36:35She sees things differently.
36:38I wish you were more at home.
36:42I'm here now.
36:46Come.
36:47A man needs his son around him at times like this.
36:54A son's the one you turn to.
37:05James is very shaken.
37:07Understandably.
37:09He's been rather fire and brimstone on divorce in the past.
37:13Weren't to condemn both sin and sinner.
37:17But he dotes on Winifred.
37:19It is a dilemma.
37:23Your silence speaks volumes, Julie.
37:27This is dirty when all's said and done.
37:31You're not appalled.
37:33The loss of a husband is nothing to the loss of a good butler.
37:38Oh, Hughes.
37:41Lured to Scotland by a laird.
37:44May the 4th, 1838.
37:46We were in turmoil for months.
37:49Years.
37:50Such beautiful hands.
37:53Soft as a girl's.
37:54We never quite got over it.
37:57No.
37:58No, Winifred's a plucky thing.
38:01She'll come through this.
38:03Shunned in certain quarters,
38:05but then one insists on being fashionable.
38:09What can one expect?
38:11Send her our love.
38:13And some shortbread.
38:15Yes, do.
38:16And tell her to get a good butler.
38:24Here.
38:29Oh, I keep wondering.
38:31Oh, not this again.
38:32Holly, tell him, would you?
38:34Tell him what?
38:35He keeps banging on about whether we should be holding the exhibition here at Robin Hill.
38:39It's a provincial.
38:40Dad, it's perfect.
38:41You couldn't find a better space.
38:44I've always liked this one.
38:48Rio Hampton at dawn.
38:51Do you think I might take it for my rooms at Oxford?
38:54Can't you wait till after the exhibition?
38:59Sorry.
39:00What am I thinking?
39:03Thanks, Dad.
39:04Bye, Holly.
39:13Very discerning children you have.
39:19Anyone interesting?
39:21Irene Heron.
39:22From Rome.
39:24Is that where she lives now?
39:26She's travelling.
39:28She dropped me a line when I sent her a new issue.
39:31How is she?
39:34How is she?
39:34Has she changed much?
39:37I wouldn't know.
39:38Her paths haven't crossed since Dad.
39:43Carrad is here.
39:49Is that everything?
39:50A couple of books.
39:51I'll get them.
39:52They're on the bed.
39:56Here.
39:57I've got my allowance.
39:58You've been more than generous.
40:00I'm about to have forgotten something.
40:03I'm going to sound like old Polonius now.
40:06Neither a borrower nor a lender be.
40:08You said that to me on my first day at school.
40:12I don't see Oxford being much different.
40:15Better clothes.
40:16A few more shillings in my pocket.
40:18Is it's her will grow shorter?
40:19I doubt.
40:20That's just as it should be.
40:21You're ready for it.
40:22As only I haven't quite adjusted to the idea.
40:25Always was a late developer.
40:29Jolly.
40:32This might sound a bit rich with my history.
40:34But.
40:37I should very much like to think that you will go through life
40:40treating other people
40:42as you'd like to be treated yourself.
40:49Thus endeth the homily.
41:04Odd that I've never met this side of the family before.
41:07You and Jolly are cousins.
41:09Didn't you grow up, chums?
41:10Jolly.
41:11He fancied himself as something of a rebel.
41:14He's not so anti the establishment now
41:16that its members have started to buy his paintings.
41:21Ah, June.
41:22Good afternoon.
41:23I haven't seen you for years.
41:25I wish to speak with your father.
41:27Is he expecting you?
41:28He's rather busy at the moment.
41:30Ah, there he is.
41:35Jolly.
41:37Soames.
41:39I can't have changed that much.
41:40No, no, it's a surprise.
41:44I was just explaining how busy you are
41:46preparing for the private view.
41:49This is my sister's son.
41:50Val Darty, how do you do?
41:52Jolly and Forsythe, pleased to meet you.
41:54My daughters.
41:55June.
41:56Holly.
41:57How do you do?
41:58Hello, Val.
42:00Val's going up to Oxford.
42:01I thought you ought to meet your boy.
42:03Bad timing.
42:03But Jolly went up last week.
42:05You've had a wasted journey.
42:06I'm sorry.
42:07And I'll be of no use to you, I'm afraid.
42:09You'll excuse me.
42:12Oh, well.
42:13One must expect these disappointments
42:14when one acts on impulse.
42:19There is another matter.
42:22Ah, but you two will no doubt find a crashing bore.
42:25Holly, why don't you show Val round?
42:28Val?
42:31Extraordinary house.
42:32I can't believe you've never been before.
42:35Are those stables round the side?
42:36Yes.
42:36Sorry, forget myself.
42:37Would you like to see the house?
42:39I've seen it.
42:47I've come about and I...
42:48Men.
42:49These days, men.
42:50I need to know.
42:51Men?
42:53That's what I said.
42:58You don't believe me.
42:59I get a letter once a year as her trustee.
43:01That apart, I have no relationship with her.
43:03That she never mentions in her letters?
43:06Nothing of that sort.
43:07Why have you come to me?
43:08Who else?
43:11It's been 12 years.
43:1412 years without a wife or the freedom to find another.
43:17I'm tired of it.
43:20I wish to start again.
43:22I need evidence for a divorce.
43:24Would you speak to her on my behalf?
43:27Maybe you'd better.
43:29Well, a personal visit must be preferable to a formal letter.
43:33She may not be in the country.
43:34You could find out easily.
43:36I've told you I have no contact with her.
43:42Please.
43:50Well, if she's in London, I'll speak to her.
43:53I'll present her with the facts, but I won't press your suit just to be clear.
43:56I am only asking for what is my right.
43:58Are we clear?
44:04I'm grateful, I'm sure.
44:07I'll hear from you directly.
44:08I'll send her with you directly.
44:09And then, Kevin.当然,
44:29I'll see you. I'll
44:29see you. But...
44:31Not yet.
44:32Go on,
44:34Kevin. Do you think
44:34he's a real boss? Joseph.
44:46this is such an unexpected pleasure
44:49it's your secret you look entirely unchanged
44:53I mean it
44:54people who don't live are wonderfully preserved
44:57please
44:59tell me how is your work
45:01the house, holly, everything
45:05life is good
45:06and full
45:09Irene, this is not a social call
45:11pleased as I am to see you again
45:13I had a visit yesterday
45:16from Soames
45:18he wants a divorce
45:22after all these years
45:24won't that be difficult
45:28unless
45:31unless
45:32I have a lover
45:34he has presumably
45:36I believe
45:37he'd like to have children
45:39enough to supply the evidence himself
45:41because
45:42I cannot help him
45:43I'm afraid
45:44you wouldn't like to be free too?
45:47and what does it matter now?
45:50there's been no one since
45:52but if you were to love again
45:54then I should love
45:58well I said I wouldn't press his case
46:01there's nothing more to say
46:03tell him I'm sorry he's not free
46:07he had his chance
46:08I don't know why he didn't take it
46:10well he's a foresight
46:11he never part with anything
46:12on principle
46:13not you
46:14I don't care
