00:00:28The End
00:00:30Come on.
00:01:00Come on.
00:01:04That's a little bit sweet.
00:01:05Ooh, you can just sit down.
00:01:08You want to sit down?
00:01:10Yes, man.
00:01:40Clare, who's that little girl?
00:01:43Oh, dear.
00:01:45Poor little woman.
00:01:47She must have lost herself.
00:01:50Who do you belong to, child?
00:01:52From Molly Gibson, please.
00:01:54I came with the Miss Brownings.
00:01:56Hollingford people, I see.
00:01:59She's very pale, Clare.
00:02:01Take her into the house and let her lie down in your room.
00:02:04I'll send in some food for her.
00:02:06Yes, of course, Lady Harriet.
00:02:09Come, dear.
00:02:22Take your shoes off and lie on the bed.
00:02:42See what kind Lady Harriet has sent for you.
00:02:46Will you take a little?
00:02:47No?
00:02:49Perhaps later.
00:02:51When you've had a little rest.
00:02:54Please, ma'am, don't let them go without me.
00:02:58I'm going to go back with the Miss Brownings.
00:03:01Don't trouble yourself, dear.
00:03:03I'll take care.
00:03:04Mm-hmm.
00:03:27I'll take care.
00:03:31I'll take care.
00:03:45Well, at least that's over for another year.
00:03:50Oh, it's turning quite chilly.
00:03:52Claire, get me, Marshal.
00:03:56Oh, bless us and save us.
00:03:58What's this in the bed?
00:03:59Oh, Molly Gibson, please.
00:04:04Oh, why, I quite forgot about you.
00:04:07Never mind.
00:04:08You can stay for supper and go home in the morning.
00:04:10But I must go home.
00:04:12My father would want me to make his tea for him.
00:04:15Well, it can't be out now.
00:04:17You should have overslept yourself in a strange house.
00:04:19Oh, come, don't cry.
00:04:23I have a little girl who can think of nothing better than to stay in such a fine house,
00:04:27but I have to leave her at home when I come here.
00:04:30All will be well, little one.
00:04:32Now brush your hair.
00:04:33Come in and come down and have dessert with the other children.
00:04:47Ah, you snap creature in the blade, my throat.
00:04:50She looks quite wild and strange.
00:04:51French, I dare say.
00:04:53One together for the children, you know.
00:04:54Accents and so on.
00:04:56Bonsoir, ma petite.
00:04:57Comment tu t'appelles?
00:04:57I don't know French, ma'am.
00:04:59I'm only Molly Gibson.
00:05:00Ah, Gibson?
00:05:01I know the doctor's child.
00:05:03Oh, oh, I know all about you, little woman.
00:05:07Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:05:08Oh, who's been sleeping in my bed, eh?
00:05:11What?
00:05:12Who's been sleeping in my bed?
00:05:14Oh, oh, oh.
00:05:15Well, little girl, Deluxe, and what have you got to say in your defence, eh?
00:05:19If you please, my lord.
00:05:20It was the lady they called Claire's bed, not your lordship's.
00:05:24I stand rebuked, I stand rebuked.
00:05:26Her father is here.
00:05:28You can make your escape, little woman.
00:05:31I bet she she'll be happier at home.
00:05:55so what did you think of life on the rich books they were kind to me but I hope I
00:06:01never have to
00:06:02go there again nor shall you if you don't want to I'm so glad you came for me Papa I
00:06:15should like to get
00:06:16along Shane and fasten us to each end of it then we can never lose each other so I'm to
00:06:22go about the
00:06:23country like a donkey with a clog tied to my leg is that it I wouldn't mind being a clog
00:06:28so long as
00:06:29we're fastened together not so sure I care to beat the donkey
00:06:56these as well if you will gentlemen before I return
00:07:10I don't have any chance with it all why ask me how should I know
00:07:28she truly is the loveliest girl
00:07:37Mariah
00:07:57all right come here Mariah
00:08:07give me that note
00:08:08but it's from Miss Molly sir he said I should give it into her own hands
00:08:13then you shall
00:08:16Molly
00:08:18Molly
00:08:22well you'll come Mariah should I get us a tea
00:08:26what is it give her the note Mariah and then you make off
00:08:34you any idea who that might be from Molly
00:08:37no
00:08:38good give it to me
00:08:42then off you go proceed back to your skills
00:08:45am I not to know who it's from
00:08:46not at present
00:08:49my pupils and I are engaged in an ethical debate
00:08:52Molly
00:08:53Mr. Colt here was arguing for kill or cure
00:08:57if we cannot recover the patient we should put him out of his misery
00:09:01oh indeed sir I didn't quite say that
00:09:03you're by that Mr. Colt
00:09:04and look how you've shocked
00:09:06poor Mr. Wynn
00:09:08Mr. Wynn disapproves of homicide I believe
00:09:10well of course I do sir
00:09:12my own view is that it doesn't do to make away with profitable patients
00:09:16as long as he can pay their two and six a visit
00:09:18then it is our duty
00:09:19to keep them alive as long as possible
00:09:22if they can't pay of course
00:09:23well that's an entirely different matter
00:09:25but really sir
00:09:26father
00:09:26what
00:09:28Mr. Wynn you know father goes every day to see old Mrs. Grant
00:09:31who hasn't got a penny
00:09:31and she has the most expensive medicine that can be got
00:09:34well even I find it difficult to live up to my precepts all the time
00:09:39never mind Mr. Wynn your virtue does you credit
00:09:42some men have no principles at all
00:09:47oh gentlemen time to get back to your slavery
00:10:28Master Cox I have a prescription for you
00:10:37beg your pardon sir
00:10:39one ounce of modesty
00:10:41two ounces of duty
00:10:42one grain of deference
00:10:43taken three times per day
00:10:45in aqua pura
00:10:47that should cool the burning passion
00:10:50which I understand you to be suffering from
00:10:52I don't think it was the conduct of a gentleman sir
00:10:55to intercept my letter
00:10:57and open it
00:10:58and read words that were never addressed to you
00:11:00if you had come to me and told me that you loved my daughter
00:11:02that would have been honourable
00:11:03now I must write to your father and ask him to remove you from my household
00:11:06and tell him the reason why
00:11:07I beg you wouldn't do that sir
00:11:09I should have told you sir
00:11:11but
00:11:12I knew you'd be angry with me and forbid it
00:11:16and I do love
00:11:17Miss Gibson sir
00:11:18very dearly
00:11:19who could help it
00:11:22well
00:11:24well by accident or design
00:11:26you've managed to say the right thing for once
00:11:30can I take it that this letter is your first attempt
00:11:33she's unaware of your passion otherwise
00:11:36yes sir
00:11:37good
00:11:39now listen to me Mr Cox
00:11:42this is a motherless girl of barely 17
00:11:44she's too young for all this
00:11:46and it is not what you are here for
00:11:48now if you could give me your word
00:11:50that there'll be no more of this nonsense
00:11:52then perhaps I'll reconsider
00:11:53and let you stay
00:11:55do you understand
00:11:57yes sir
00:11:59in any case my daughter is leaving us very soon
00:12:02to pay an extended visit to Squire and Mrs Hamley
00:12:06at Hamley Hall
00:12:10this afternoon
00:12:12why don't you want to go goosey
00:12:14I don't know
00:12:16I was never away without you before
00:12:18well everything must have a beginning
00:12:21Mrs Hamley has been asking to meet you for a long time
00:12:24she's not well poor lady
00:12:26and I think that I just must be unselfish
00:12:29but why must it all be so sudden
00:12:33there's another reason isn't there
00:12:34and it's something to do with that note
00:12:35and you don't want to tell me what it is
00:12:37you're a witch goosey
00:12:38I've got a good reason
00:12:40and I know that you'll be a good girl
00:12:41and you'll trust me on it
00:12:44I haven't any gowns fit to wear
00:12:46well how's a man to know
00:12:48when his daughter needs clothes
00:12:50go to Miss Rosie's
00:12:51get yourself whatever you need

00:12:54Miss Rosie's?

00:15:11they're both up at Cambridge
00:15:13Osborne's
00:15:14very brilliant
00:15:15and expected to get a fellowship
00:15:17I like their faces
00:15:20you must miss them very much
00:15:21when they're away

00:15:31I see you've brought your sewing with you
00:15:33like a good girl
00:15:36I don't sew much
00:15:38I read
00:15:39a great deal
00:15:43do you like reading too
00:15:45yes
00:15:47well
00:15:48it depends on the sort of book
00:15:50I'm afraid I don't much like
00:15:51steady reading
00:15:52as Papa calls it
00:15:54do you like poetry
00:15:55oh yes
00:15:56I do like poetry
00:15:57then I must show you
00:15:58some of Osborne's one day
00:15:59Mr. Osborne Hamley
00:16:02is he a poet
00:16:03yes
00:16:04I really
00:16:05think I could say
00:16:06he's a poet
00:16:07he's very
00:16:09handsome
00:16:09yes
00:16:12he was a beautiful boy
00:16:13and he's grown into
00:16:15a beautiful young man
00:16:17Roger was never
00:16:18to be compared with him
00:16:19well I like his face
00:16:21but
00:16:22he isn't like Mr. Osborne
00:16:23at all
00:16:24is he
00:16:25no
00:16:25and he's not likely
00:16:26to have such a brilliant career
00:16:30but he's a good
00:16:32dear fellow
00:16:33for all that
00:16:58I'm going to have to
00:17:03I'm going to have to
00:17:14god bless my soul i'd forgotten all about you
00:17:19you're gibson's daughter aren't you come to pay us a visit i remember
00:17:23well i must say i'm glad to see you my dear very glad indeed well well well
00:17:31yeah settled in all right have you yes thank you sir yeah well i i i must count dress can't
00:17:39go in like this madam wouldn't like it she's broken me into her fine london ways and i'm
00:17:45all the better for it i dare say now see this tomorrow i shall have you do this for me
00:17:53miss
00:17:53gibson well i do it tonight if you like sir no no today you're a visitor tomorrow i'll
00:17:59send you an errands and call you by christian name molly is it yes well i was christened
00:18:06mary but mama was mary so i was called molly while she lived and so i still am ah yes
00:18:14your
00:18:14mama poor thing i remember how sorry everyone was when she died yeah no one thought she was
00:18:20delicate she had just a fresh colour then all at once she just popped off as you might say
00:18:27it must have been a terrible blow to your father i but i would have thought he'd have
00:18:33married again by now wouldn't you well perhaps i'd better not have said it but it's the truth
00:18:37everyone thought he would but he didn't i suppose he's likely to now he's past 40 isn't he i never
00:18:44thought he might want to marry again molly my dear really you shouldn't mind what the squire says
00:18:51your father seems to me just like the sort of man who would remain constant to the memory of his
00:18:56wife
00:19:05principles of genealogy it's a rather wild idea why other than the marks i didn't round up to the
00:19:10marks point of view and also that what the ducks get webbed feet because they swim i know it tickled
00:19:16me at first but a doctor knows more about membranes than that pretty persuasive in a lot of kind of
00:19:20way though it could be ah lord hollingford i'm to bring mr gibson to your mother oh you remember
00:19:29mrs kirkpatrick come and find me before you leave i'll be in the lab
00:19:37but surely um we've uh i expect you to remember me as miss claire i was here years ago as
00:19:45the girl's
00:19:45governor oh yes and you caught scarlet fever when they did i remember we were both much younger than
00:19:50i think oh yes indeed what i was thinking of myself oh come mr gibson if you were much younger
00:19:58than
00:19:58so was i is mr kirkpatrick here with you oh no no i'm afraid alfred died a long while ago
00:20:06when our
00:20:06little girl was only four indeed i have a school at ashcombe now and it's a summer holiday so when
00:20:14lady cumnor needed a companion i was able to come and of course she asked for me particularly and i'm
00:20:21never happier than when i'm at the towers i think you met my little molly here on one of your
00:20:26visits yes
00:20:27yes yes indeed i can still see her sweet face on my pillow you were very kind to her i
00:20:34wish i could
00:20:36thank you at the time
00:20:48yes it's a slight irregularity but nothing to cause concern lady cumnor i make up a draft for you to
00:20:56take a night apart from that plenty of light dishes nothing too rich no game and no strong cheese
00:21:04try to walk every day half a mile normal and don't sit up too late at night and that's all
00:21:11thank you mr
00:21:13gibson such a pleasure being told what to do for once how um how do you find claire now that
00:21:25you see
00:21:25her again do you think she looks well mr gibson very well indeed the years have been kinder to her
00:21:31than they have to me i think oh don't disparage yourself mr gibson ladies like an active man such as
00:21:38yourself to look a little weather-beating claire's had a difficult time of it you know and managed
00:21:48very bravely bringing up a daughter single-handed as you have yourself indeed how is she getting on that
00:21:57little woman of yours well enough i think there's been born in of me who lays how much she misses
00:22:04by not
00:22:05having a mother's care even lord hollingford said something of the sort in passing you know the
00:22:11other day indeed perhaps i've been selfish thinking that i could give the girl all that
00:22:17she needs in a way of care and affection and guidance in life you know her happiness means more to
00:22:24me
00:22:25than anything well perhaps her happiness and your comfort might be secured by the same means
00:22:36perhaps they might
00:22:41ah look there he goes look a heron i've never seen a heron before only in pictures
00:22:46rooks don't like him rooks and heron is always at war if my boy roger was with us he'd tell
00:22:52you a deal of
00:22:53things like that you could show him a cobweb and he'd tell you what sort of spider made it really
00:22:59it's pretty they don't reckon such things at the university if they did roger would be top of the
00:23:04class but mr osborne hamley is very clever isn't he oh yes osborne's bit of a genius i was saying
00:23:10at
00:23:10the penchistrates meeting i've got a summer make a noise at cambridge i'm very much mistaken mrs
00:23:15hamley let me read his poems did she did she and did you like them oh yes i can't be
00:23:23reading poetry
00:23:23myself i understand they're very good very deep you know but um roger's a good lad too you know good
00:23:31steady lad
00:23:35there's my pet project i'm going to drain all that land yonder good work for the men good work for
00:23:40the
00:23:40land someone to leave behind me when i'm gone well that's what we're here for we're told leave the
00:23:46world a better place than the way we found it eh
00:24:00damn it what's the wretched boy about i was told he's as good as wanted already
00:24:07yes but i'm afraid he didn't do well enough in his examination he said himself he was sure to be
00:24:12high up among the rangers or whatever you call them bad suits it all how could he have gone and
00:24:19spared it molly come here my love
00:24:25you mustn't let it upset you he'll soon be himself again rogers returned to tell us that osborne has done
00:24:34very poorly in his examination is quite unexpected and the squire has taken it very badly he doesn't
00:24:40understand about cambridge he was never at college himself oh poor poor osborne but he can sit again
00:24:52can't he when failure isn't the end of everything of course you're quite right but roger says he has
00:24:57very little chance of a fellowship and the squire he put all his hopes on that i don't think mr
00:25:07roger
00:25:08should have told he had no need to begin so soon about his brother's failure you don't understand roger
00:25:13is a good boy but it's such a comfort having you here child and your being a fourth at dinner
00:25:19is a
00:25:19blessing too at times like this a stranger in the house is a wonderful help go on get out of
00:25:25this
00:25:32it's a bottle of burgundy with the yellow seal robinson if you please sir there's not about six
00:25:43bottles of that one left it's mr osborne's favorite it's a bottle of it as i told you yes sir
00:25:50mr osborne's
00:25:51likes mr osborne's dislikes have been more in this house long enough in my opinion
00:25:58how's your father miss gibson and when he next day is to favor us with his company i should tell
00:26:03himself myself your father is well yes quite well thank you i shall look forward to having a talk with
00:26:12him when he has the time he's the cleverest man in the county i think and has the best science
00:26:19library apart from lord hollingford of course oh he's a good man gibson he never felt the need to
00:26:23go to cambridge university and dash his family's hopes into pieces my dear well well i don't suppose
00:26:29he failed his tripos or whatever you call it on purpose but he might have had the courage to come
00:26:35home and tell it so himself instead of leaving poor roger there to bear the brunt of it perhaps
00:26:39that's what he did mean to do if he'd been given the chance
00:26:46i didn't get any pleasure from it miss gibson if that's what you imagine
00:26:53i should have been i that failed my examination rather than osborne for then no one would have taken
00:26:57it a miss that's an unusual dress molly is it the tartan of your father's clan perhaps no papa said
00:27:12it
00:27:12was not like any proper tartan he'd seen he said it was quite outlandish although miss rose said it
00:27:18was very popular last season in london well i think it's very pretty don't you roger very
00:27:28uh
00:27:39uh
00:27:40uh
00:27:41uh
00:28:12It seems a shame to wake her.
00:28:14Yes, very well.
00:28:24I can call back later.
00:28:27Oh, but you mustn't leave in this rain.
00:28:32Stormy will.
00:28:33Yes. Cynthia, my daughter, sends word that for two days last week the packet could not sail from Boulogne.
00:28:41Miss Kirkpatrick is at Boulogne?
00:28:43Yes.
00:28:44Yes, she's been there for two years or so.
00:28:47She's learning French amongst other things.
00:28:51Cynthia is a very romantic name.
00:28:54It's hardly fit for everyday use.
00:28:57It was my name, Mr. Gibson. She was named for me.
00:29:00I was called Hyacinth Clare.
00:29:03And once upon a time I found that name.
00:29:06Well, I was very proud of it.
00:29:08And other people found it pretty too.
00:29:10But perhaps you're right.
00:29:12Such a flowery name might excite prejudice in some.
00:29:16And poor child she's going to have enough to struggle with in her life.
00:29:20A young daughter is a great charge when there's only one parent to take care of her.
00:29:25Aye, it's hard for a child to be fatherless.
00:29:28But...
00:29:29But to be motherless?
00:29:30No.
00:29:31Might that not be a greater misfortune for a young girl?
00:29:35I'm sure your Molly is most fortunate to have a father so devoted to her happiness.
00:29:40You're very kind.
00:29:41But even so I...
00:29:42I cannot be mother and father to her.
00:29:47And now just know she's...
00:29:48She's becoming a woman.
00:29:50Yes, yes.
00:29:51She must be near my Cynthia's age.
00:29:53How I should love to see her.
00:29:55I hope you will.
00:29:57I should like you to see her.
00:30:00I should like you to...
00:30:02To love my poor little Molly.
00:30:05To love her as your own.
00:30:07Oh...
00:30:07Could you...
00:30:08Could you love her as your daughter?
00:30:10Will you try?
00:30:12May I introduce you to her as a future mother?
00:30:16As my wife?
00:30:17Oh, Mr. Gibbs.
00:30:19Oh, my dear.
00:30:21My dearest.
00:30:25Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:30:26I'm so happy.
00:30:29You only knew what a long, lonely struggle it has been for me.
00:30:34Miss Clare, that struggle is a thing of the past.
00:30:37Call me Hyacinth.
00:30:38I hate Clare.
00:30:40It reminds me of being a governess and those days have gone at last.
00:30:43Are they...
00:30:43We are, my dearest.
00:30:44They're gone forever.
00:30:45Then call me Hyacinth.
00:30:48Oh, your own...
00:30:50Dear Hyacinth.
00:30:51Hey!
00:30:53That's right.
00:30:55Here.
00:31:13Anyway, hey.
00:31:14Let go!
00:31:24Molly?
00:31:29Papa?
00:31:34Papa!
00:31:37I was afraid you were unwell.
00:31:39No, I'm very well.
00:31:41But I woke so very early this morning and I was out in the fields and then it got too
00:31:44hot.
00:31:45I meant to watch for you. Truly, I did.
00:31:48How are you?
00:31:50How is everyone? Miss Browning? Miss Phoebe?
00:31:53Do you know, Papa, I don't think you're looking well.
00:31:56I don't look well. That must be all your fancy, you see.
00:31:59I am well. In fact, I am uncommonly well.
00:32:03All the same, you need me at home to take care of you.
00:32:06I do like it here and everyone is very kind.
00:32:11What is it? Is it something bad?
00:32:14Not at all.
00:32:16But I have a piece of news for you.
00:32:18Can you guess what it is?
00:32:20How should I?
00:32:22Well, my love, I think you have felt, as I have, the difficulty of your situation.
00:32:29Of a girl growing up.
00:32:33You have felt the lack, as I have, of...
00:32:35You're going to be married again.
00:32:41To Mrs. Kirkpatrick.
00:32:43You remember her?
00:32:44They called her Claire at the towers.
00:32:46You recollect how kind she was to you that day you were left there.
00:32:49She's a very suitable age for me.
00:32:52She has very agreeable and polished manners,
00:32:54so you and I will have to watch our peas in Ques, Goosey.
00:32:57And last but not least,
00:32:59she has a daughter about your age
00:33:00who will come and live with us and be a sister for you.
00:33:03So that's why I was sent away?
00:33:05So that all this could be quietly arranged in my absence?
00:33:35So that's why I was sent away.
00:33:38Oh, my God.
00:33:40Papa, you would only come back.
00:33:47Miss Gibson?
00:33:49Oh.
00:33:56Is it lunchtime?
00:33:59I don't know.
00:34:00It must be nearly.
00:34:01I was on my way home to lunch.
00:34:04But look, you're in distress.
00:34:06Has something happened?
00:34:09can i be of any help i don't mean to intrude if you'd rather be alone just say so and
00:34:15i'll go at
00:34:16once no it's all right i don't mind then shall we walk back together no um there's nothing
00:34:29please don't wait for me i i should be all right in a little while
00:34:38no i think i should
00:34:43my father's going to marry again
00:34:49and you're sorry for it
00:34:57you know it must be very hard for a man to go through life without companionship
00:35:03female companionship i mean he had me you don't know what we were to each other
00:35:08at least what he was to me still he must have thought it for the best perhaps for your sake
00:35:15even more than for his own that's what he tried to convince me of
00:35:21you know the woman he's engaged himself to no well that is
00:35:28i met her once when i was a little girl everybody said she was kind to me she let me
00:35:33rest in her bed
00:35:34and then she forgot all about me i don't think she cares for other people very much at all
00:35:43miss gibson molly
00:35:47you probably won't like me for saying this but
00:35:50it doesn't do any good to prejudge people especially on the bad side
00:35:55we have to give things a chance to turn out well it might be for the best after all you
00:36:01know
00:36:07do you like my sermons
00:36:10have they given you an appetite for lunch
00:36:19come

00:36:31i'm not very good at expressing myself somehow i must fall into philosophizing
00:36:37but i do feel very sorry for you and i shall often be thinking of you
00:36:41though i dare say it's the best not to speak for you ever
00:36:59come and have a look

00:39:51oh so like him the same hair papa's is going gray is it i never see it i shall never
00:39:58see it
00:39:59to me he'll always be the handsomest of men
00:40:02oh and he's so fond of you dear i mean you don't know how he speaks of you sometimes i'm
00:40:07almost jealous
00:40:10will make him so happy

00:40:17you must be my little friend and helper i don't think he's so particular about a lot of things
00:40:23but there is one thing he's very fidgety about he he likes his meals to be very punctual you see
00:40:29he's often had a long ride and there's another long ride to come and sometimes he only has
00:40:33half an hour or even less to eat his dinner in thank you thank you my own love that's just
00:40:39the
00:40:39sort of thing i mean he doesn't care what he has so long as it's ready he'd as soon eat
00:40:43bread and cheese as anything else bread and cheese mr gibson eats cheese yes he's very fond of it
00:40:51i will soon cure him of that oh it's so coarse and strong smelling i can't abide the smell of
00:40:56cheese
00:40:56and i know that he'd be sorry to annoy me but the buyers always yes my tell me about cynthia
00:41:05when is
00:41:05she to come oh well i know your father's begged for her to come to the wedding but i think
00:41:11we should
00:41:12think about it just a little bit before quite fixing it i do so want to see her is she
00:41:16very clever and
00:41:17accomplished she ought to be i've spent ever so much money well lord cumnor has on having her taught by
00:41:32my little daughter lady cumnor nonsense claire she's not your daughter yet and may never be
00:41:39one third of the engagements i have ever heard of never came to marriages well my dear i'm glad to
00:41:47see
00:41:48you for your father's sake and when i get to know you better i hope it will be for your
00:41:53own
00:41:57i like her looks claire you might make something very good of her why don't you take her back to
00:42:04the school at ashcombe and let her stay with you until the wedding now is that a capital scheme or
00:42:11is
00:42:11it not oh but my lady i don't think it would be nice at all i mean my lady i
00:42:18should dislike it very
00:42:19much it would take me away from papa just these very few last weeks we have together
00:42:26well she expresses herself very frankly not but what there's a good deal of truth in what she says
00:42:34it must be very disagreeable my dear to have a stepmother coming in between your father and
00:42:40yourself i see that whatever the advantage is in the long run she knows her own mind claire
00:42:49i think you'll have your work cut out there
00:43:08how are you was it a very trying day i thought about you more than once i did try to
00:43:16remember
00:43:16what you said and to think more of elizabeth but it's so difficult i know but you know you'll be
00:43:22happier for it by and by no i shan't and if i'm to kill myself as it were trying to
00:43:27think and behave as
00:43:28other people want me to i feel i might as well never have lived and as for the happiness you
00:43:32speak
00:43:33of well i shall never be happy again
00:43:44hey mr gitza
00:44:02Miss Browning, Miss Phoebe, I hardly know where to start, but as you were both such old
00:44:14and dear friends of my wife, Mary, and so kind to Molly.
00:44:19How, Miss dear Molly, she's been going away such a long time.
00:44:23It was necessary, I'm afraid, thank you.
00:44:26One of my young men, Mr Cox, fancied himself in love with her.
00:44:31Heavens, and has she got over Mr Cox?
00:44:33Well, he has got over her, I hope, and left us.
00:44:36Oh, I do like hearing of a love with her.
00:44:38Well, if you just let me get on, then you shall hear of mine.
00:44:42Yours? Bless us and save us. What next?
00:44:46My marriage, I hope.
00:44:49And that is what I have come to speak to you about.
00:44:54It seemed to me that my house needed a mistress again,
00:44:59and that Molly needed a mother's care.
00:45:02Quite right, Mr Gibson.
00:45:04Of course, it's been an anxious thing for me to decide who I should ask.
00:45:12The lady that I have chosen.
00:45:16Tell us at once who she is. There's a good man.
00:45:21Mrs Kirkpatrick.
00:45:22Used to be governess at the Towers.
00:45:25Oh.
00:45:28She's a very elegant-looking woman.
00:45:31Nonsense, sister. What's elegance got to do with it?
00:45:34Men don't marry women for their elegance.
00:45:37Not widowers, at any rate.
00:45:40So what was the favour you came to ask for, Mr Gibson?
00:45:44Do sit still.
00:45:45I wanted to ask if you'll have Molly to stay
00:45:49while Mrs Gibson and I are on a wedding journey.
00:45:52Well, you might have asked us last time,
00:45:54before you asked Madam Hamley.
00:45:55We're your old friends, and her mother's friends too,
00:45:58although we're not county folk,
00:46:00who you like to spend all your time with nowadays.
00:46:02And that's unjust, and you know it, Miss Broglie.
00:46:04Well, maybe it is and maybe it isn't.
00:46:07But at all events...
00:46:12Of course little Molly may stay with us
00:46:15as long as she likes.
00:46:16Yes, as long as she likes.
00:46:28There's no call for sighing, Phoebe.
00:46:30I don't know how you could ever have got the notion
00:46:32that Mr Gibson would think of you.
00:46:41Good morning, my lord.
00:46:43Good morning, Preston.
00:46:51Mrs Kirkpatrick.
00:46:59Such a happy day for you.
00:47:01A pity Miss Kirkpatrick will miss the wedding.
00:47:04She would have been a charming addition to the bridal party.
00:47:07Well, Cynthia could not be spared from school.
00:47:10Dommage.
00:47:14Ah, Claire.
00:47:16Oh, you are looking very pretty.
00:47:18Come along in.
00:47:20That's the idea.
00:47:21Oh, don't crease your dress now.
00:47:23Put it over my knees, I shan't mind.
00:47:26Going to a wedding, who minds anything?
00:47:28Different if we were going to a funeral one.
00:47:31Miss Gibson?
00:47:36And will Miss Kirkpatrick be back from France?
00:47:38I don't know.
00:47:41What is she like?
00:47:43Very beautiful.
00:47:44And I expect she's very clever and accomplished too, isn't she?
00:47:48I suppose she is, yes.
00:47:50You see, she has such a charm about her
00:47:52that one forgets what she herself is
00:47:54in the halo that surrounds her.
00:47:57Oh.
00:48:00Lady Harriet.
00:48:08I think I have the advantage of you, Miss Gibson.
00:48:10I met you once when you were just a child.
00:48:12I've come as an amateur bridesmaid to help you out.
00:48:17Well, walk on.
00:48:19Come on.
00:48:30I dare say it's something of a trial for you,
00:48:33this second marriage of your father's.
00:48:34I wonder how it all get on together.
00:48:35So do I.
00:48:37Well, from my experience,
00:48:38if you're a very good girl
00:48:39and suffer yourself to be led,
00:48:40you'll find your new step
00:48:41under the sweetest creature imaginable.
00:48:44I never managed it, but you might.
00:48:48I was hoping Cynthia would be here for the wedding.
00:48:51Oh, the daughter.
00:48:53Yes, so was she, I dare say.
00:48:55But I understand she's grown into a great beauty
00:48:58these last years.
00:48:59Perhaps her mama wished her a little younger
00:49:01or less pretty.
00:49:03That's a wicked daughter.
00:49:05Who ever heard of a mother jealous of her own daughter?
00:49:07I'm sure there must be some other reason.
00:49:12Who is that man?
00:49:14The bar has asked Mr. Preston to stand witness.
00:49:15He's his land agent here in Ashcombe.
00:49:17I have an instinctive aversion to him.
00:49:20He does his duty by the bar,
00:49:22but don't allow him ever to get intimate with you.
00:49:25Now, what shall you be doing
00:49:26while the happy couple are on their wedding journey?
00:49:28Oh, I'm staying with Miss Brownicks.
00:49:30Oh, really?
00:49:31I know them very well.
00:49:34Pexy and Flapsy, I call them.
00:49:36They're such comical creatures
00:49:37with their attempts at gentility.
00:49:39Quacking and flapping about.
00:49:41I shall come and call on you there.
00:49:43No, don't.
00:49:44Please, I beg you would not.
00:49:45Why ever not?
00:49:46Because, because I don't think
00:49:48you should speak of the class I belong to
00:49:50as if it was some strange kind of animal
00:49:52to make fun of.
00:49:53But I don't think of you in that way, Molly.
00:49:55But I am that sort of person.
00:49:57And I don't think you should come and call on me
00:49:59at the Miss Brownicks
00:49:59if you're going to laugh at them.
00:50:01Call them names.
00:50:06I'm sorry, my lady.
00:50:07I don't mean to be disrespectful.
00:50:10No, you're quite right.
00:50:11I don't regret a word I said about that man Preston,
00:50:14but that's the Miss Brownings.
00:50:15I'm very sorry indeed
00:50:17if I offended you or them.
00:50:20Will you forgive me
00:50:21if I promise to mend my ways?
00:50:24Yes, of course I will.
00:50:25If you really mean it.
00:50:27I do.
00:50:28I feel very chastened.
00:50:30Truly.
00:50:51Thank you, darling.
00:51:25Lady, how are you?
00:51:28Quite an honour.
00:51:29But we have had our own excitement
00:51:31while you were away.
00:51:32Mr Roger Hamlin paid a visit
00:51:34and he was asking most kindly
00:51:37after you, Molly.
00:51:38And he brought you that over there.
00:51:40I wouldn't touch the horrid thing.
00:51:42Oh, a wasp's nest.
00:51:44Wasp's nest indeed.
00:51:46Either he or you
00:51:47or both of you must be crazy.
00:51:49Did you know there are over
00:51:50a hundred different kinds of wasp
00:51:51in England alone?
00:51:53He told me all about them one day.
00:51:55Well, to the point,
00:51:56he brought a note
00:51:57from Mrs Hanley
00:51:58asking if we could spare you
00:52:00on Thursday.
00:52:01The men are all going
00:52:02to the agricultural show.
00:52:04Mr Osborne as well,
00:52:05but he's at home just now.
00:52:07And she wanted you
00:52:08to keep her company.
00:52:09And may I go?
00:52:11To be sure, my dear.
00:52:15The pleasure stirs the markening soul,
00:52:17the heart, the heart is lonely still.
00:52:21Fain would I fly the haunts of men.
00:52:23I seek to shun, not hate mankind.
00:52:27My breast requires the sullen glen
00:52:29whose gloomy suit a darkened mind.
00:52:33Oh, that to me the wings were given
00:52:36which bare the turtle to her nest.
00:52:38Then would I cleave the vault of heaven
00:52:41to flee away and be at rest.
00:52:46Osborne.
00:52:47Back so soon?
00:52:48I'm afraid so, Mother.
00:52:51Bullocks just aren't in my line, I find.
00:52:54Molly, this fellow is my son, Osborne.
00:52:58So, Miss Gibson,
00:53:00you're fond of Byron, are you?
00:53:01Yes, and Mrs Hanley showed me
00:53:03some of your poems too.
00:53:04Oh, did she?
00:53:05And what did you think of them?
00:53:07I thought they were very beautiful.
00:53:10Did you truly?
00:53:11Yes, of course, or I wouldn't have said so.
00:53:13Not like the rest of the world, then.
00:53:15Good, I like that.
00:53:18Oh, I meant to tell you,
00:53:20sullen glen reminded me.
00:53:21I spent a day in Haycraft's studio.
00:53:25I wish you'd come and see his new work.
00:53:27You'd like him too.
00:53:29He talks as well as he paints.
00:53:31Oh, I'd love to, Osborne.
00:53:33But your father frets so if I go away.
00:53:36Well, let him fret.
00:53:37Indulge yourself.
00:53:39What do you think, Miss Gibson?
00:53:41I don't think it's fair to ask me.
00:53:43Oh, you don't?
00:53:45I beg your pardon, then.
00:53:49Osborne!
00:53:49Why the deuce couldn't you tell
00:53:50as you were coming home?
00:53:51Sorry, Father,
00:53:52I didn't think you'd miss me.
00:53:53Roger, you ain't missed
00:53:54up his dinner hunting about for you.
00:53:56Oh, I didn't mind it, sir.
00:53:57I said we'd find him here.
00:53:58Mind on I have things, no doubt.
00:54:00Well, I wouldn't necessarily say that, sir.
00:54:06Good day.
00:54:07Very good.
00:54:07I saw the prettiest little jersey
00:54:09I've ever clapped eyes on.
00:54:11Nearly brought her home for you.
00:54:14Well, how are you getting on
00:54:15with Huber's book?
00:54:17Oh.
00:54:19Byron.
00:54:20Well, I'm reading about the bees as well.
00:54:23But Byron's more congenial.
00:54:26There's no contest.
00:54:28She's such a good girl.
00:54:29Well, don't forget what Gibson said.
00:54:40Anything else, Molly, love?
00:54:42Don't want new Mrs. to think
00:54:43we can't do things right here.
00:54:45No, I don't think so.
00:54:46That is where it looks
00:54:46very nice, I think.
00:54:48Well, I should hope so, too.
00:54:50And if she don't like it,
00:54:52she can go elsewhere.
00:55:03Well, Molly.
00:55:25Very nice.
00:55:26Molly, my dear,
00:55:27show your mama to the room.
00:55:29Well, I've ordered
00:55:29a sort of tea dinner
00:55:30to be ready for you.
00:55:31Shouldn't you like to have that first?
00:55:32Oh, dear,
00:55:33I'm not sure that I'm not
00:55:34too fatigued to eat.
00:55:35Journeys do tire me so.
00:55:37But one mustn't think
00:55:39about oneself,
00:55:39so perhaps I will take
00:55:41just a little something.
00:55:43What is it, my dear?
00:55:44Oh, I'm sorry, Harrison.
00:55:45I shall have to go out.
00:55:46One of my patients
00:55:47is dangerously ill
00:55:48and it's old
00:55:49Mr. Craven-Smith.
00:55:51Oh, no.
00:55:51I am sorry.
00:55:53Oh, you're going
00:55:54straight out again
00:55:55on our first evening
00:55:56at home together.
00:55:57Well, it can't be helped,
00:55:58my love.
00:55:58I'll be home
00:55:59as soon as I can.
00:56:02Well,
00:56:04what will be
00:56:05will be, I suppose.
00:56:06In that case, Molly,
00:56:07perhaps I will
00:56:08take a little supper
00:56:09in my room after all.
00:56:11Would you be so kind
00:56:11as to show me the way?
00:56:34It's all right, Betty.
00:56:35I'll go this time.
00:56:37Oh, thank you, love, there.
00:56:40Oh, jeez.
00:56:41I have patience
00:56:42and I'll say it.
00:56:53Oh, I'm so lonely, darling,
00:56:55in this strange house.
00:56:57Will you be my little maid tonight
00:56:59and help me unpack
00:57:00and come and talk to me?
00:57:06I really do think
00:57:07that your dear Papa
00:57:09might have put off
00:57:10his visit to Mr Cravensmith
00:57:11just for this one evening.
00:57:13But perhaps Mr Cravensmith
00:57:14couldn't put off his dying.
00:57:16You droll girl.
00:57:20Well, if he is dying,
00:57:22as you say,
00:57:22then what was the use
00:57:23of your father
00:57:23going off in such a hurry?
00:57:26Does he expect a legacy
00:57:27or anything of that kind?
00:57:29Oh, a papa can sometimes
00:57:31do something.
00:57:33Something to make
00:57:34the last struggle easier,
00:57:35that is,
00:57:36and it's a great comfort
00:57:37to the family
00:57:38to have him there.
00:57:39What a dreary knowledge
00:57:41of death you have
00:57:42for a girl of your age.
00:57:45Oh, dear,
00:57:46what an old-fashioned bed.
00:57:48Still,
00:57:50we'll renovate the house
00:57:51by and by.
00:57:52Not my room.
00:57:53I want it to stay
00:57:54just as it is.
00:57:55Come and read to me, dear.
00:57:56The sound of your voice
00:57:58will soon send me to sleep.
00:58:10How was Mr Smith?
00:58:13Dead.
00:58:15He just recognised me.
00:58:17He was one of my very first patients
00:58:19when I came to Hollingford.
00:58:24And where's the new mama?
00:58:26She was tired.
00:58:27She went to bed early.
00:58:31Must I call her mama?
00:58:35I should like it,
00:58:36if you would.
00:58:39Then I shall.
00:59:05Congratulations, Mrs Gibson.
00:59:07It's a pleasure to see
00:59:08my good friend Gibson
00:59:09so happily settled.
00:59:10You couldn't have done better,
00:59:11my dear.
00:59:14Take one.
00:59:21Are both your sons at home,
00:59:23Squire Hamley?
00:59:24Neither, ma'am.
00:59:26I hope Mr Osborne
00:59:27will visit us soon.
00:59:29Morley tells me
00:59:30he's such a handsome young man.
00:59:32Does she?
00:59:33Well, that's as may be.
00:59:35Handsome is as handsome does,
00:59:36as I say.
00:59:37Ah,
00:59:38I was afraid you weren't in.
00:59:41We're all wrong at home,
00:59:43Molly.
00:59:44Osborne's gone and lost
00:59:45the fellowship he went back
00:59:46to try for,
00:59:46and now he's gone and failed
00:59:48his degree.
00:59:48After all he said,
00:59:49and all his mother said,
00:59:50and I, like a fool,
00:59:51boasting about my clever son,
00:59:54well, I don't understand it.
00:59:56And it's thrown Madam
00:59:57into one of our fits of illness.
00:59:59Your father came to see her
01:00:00this morning,
01:00:01and she asked him
01:00:03if she might have you
01:00:04about her,
01:00:05and he said I might
01:00:06come over and fetch you,
01:00:07and, well,
01:00:09here I am.
01:00:11You will come,
01:00:11won't you,
01:00:12my dear?
01:00:12I'll be read in two minutes.
01:00:14My dear,
01:00:14stop a minute.
01:00:15I'm sure your papa
01:00:16quite forgot
01:00:17that you're going out
01:00:18with me this evening,
01:00:20but it's not important,
01:00:21is it?
01:00:21She's a very sick woman,
01:00:23Mrs Gibson,
01:00:24and she set her heart
01:00:25on seeing Molly.
01:00:27Is there no way
01:00:27of getting her off?
01:00:28My dear,
01:00:29an engagement
01:00:29is an engagement,
01:00:31and you're engaged
01:00:32not only to Mrs Cockerell,
01:00:33but also to me,
01:00:34bound to accompany me
01:00:35in the absence
01:00:36of my husband.
01:00:39I'm sorry,
01:00:40Squire Hamley,
01:00:41but I think that
01:00:42Molly's duty
01:00:42is quite clear.
01:00:44Then I'm sure
01:00:45that you will acknowledge
01:00:45that an engagement
01:00:47is an engagement.
01:00:48Did I say an engagement
01:00:49was an elephant,
01:00:50ma'am?
01:00:56Perhaps you might
01:00:57find it possible
01:00:57to permit her
01:00:59to come to us tomorrow.
01:01:02Certainly.
01:01:03She will be ready
01:01:04at any time you name.
01:01:08Thank you very much,
01:01:09madam.
01:01:10I'm much obliged to.
01:01:17Now, my dear,
01:01:19I must never have you
01:01:20exposing me
01:01:21to the manners
01:01:21of such a man again,
01:01:22and you must not go
01:01:23on accepting invitations
01:01:24as though you're
01:01:24an independent young lady.
01:01:26The pastor
01:01:26said I might go.
01:01:27Yes, well,
01:01:28now I am your mama,
01:01:29and all references
01:01:30shall be made
01:01:31through me.
01:01:33But, um,
01:01:34well,
01:01:35as you are to go,
01:01:37you may as well
01:01:38go well-dressed,
01:01:40and I will lend you
01:01:41and I will lend you
01:01:41my new shawl
01:01:42and set of green ribbons
01:01:43for at Hamley Hall
01:01:44one never knows
01:01:45who may be coming
01:01:46or going.
01:01:46Thank you,
01:01:47but I don't want
01:01:47the shawl
01:01:48and the ribbons,
01:01:48please.
01:01:50There will be no one
01:01:50there except a family.
01:01:52There never is,
01:01:53I think,
01:01:53another.
01:01:54but she's so happy.
01:01:58Oh, my dear,
01:01:59how can I bring you
01:02:00back into good temper?
01:02:02You jump at invitations
01:02:03without consulting me,
01:02:04refuse my prettiest things.
01:02:08How can I please you,
01:02:09Molly?
01:02:10I wonder.
01:02:22There you are,
01:02:23Miss Molly.
01:02:24She's expecting you.
01:02:26I'll go straight up there.
01:02:39Osborne has been
01:02:40such a disappointment
01:02:41to us.
01:02:43I can't think
01:02:44how so much money
01:02:44was spent,
01:02:45and he refused
01:02:47to explain it.
01:02:49And now the squire
01:02:50won't have him
01:02:51in the house.
01:02:53Oh, Molly,
01:02:55how could Osborne
01:02:56have got so wrong?
01:02:59You mustn't
01:02:59distress yourself.
01:03:02If I could have
01:03:03spoken to him quietly,
01:03:06I know he would have
01:03:07told me everything.
01:03:08Well, then send for him now.
01:03:11You will ease your mind.
01:03:12No, no, no, no, no.
01:03:13I can't go against
01:03:13the squire's orders.
01:03:14You can't think
01:03:16how it cuts him
01:03:17to the heart
01:03:17to have to lay off
01:03:18his workers,
01:03:18and he's so angry
01:03:21since he heard
01:03:24that Osborne
01:03:26has been borrowing
01:03:27money against
01:03:28his expectations.
01:03:31When the squire
01:03:32should die.
01:03:33I would never
01:03:34believe that.
01:03:36Couldn't it be
01:03:36that someone
01:03:37has imposed upon him?
01:03:39Bad men will do that.
01:03:40I've heard my father say,
01:03:41gain a good man's trust
01:03:43and then use it
01:03:43to ruin him.
01:03:44Oh, you're a good girl,
01:03:46Molly.
01:03:48You'd think well
01:03:49of anyone.
01:03:51Not quite anyone.
01:03:53I've been so weak.
01:03:55I made
01:03:57such an idol
01:03:59of my beautiful
01:04:01Osborne,
01:04:02and now it turns out
01:04:04he has
01:04:06feet of clay.
01:04:07ax thing
01:04:16where
01:04:18Oh.
01:04:21Oh.
01:04:22Oh.
01:04:24Oh.
01:04:26Oh.
01:04:27Oh.
01:04:32Oh.
01:04:35Oh.
01:04:36Oh.
01:04:40Robinson come here
01:04:44Robinson
01:04:45Robinson
01:04:50Oh Molly
01:04:51She's very bad
01:04:53I'm sending her for your father
01:04:54Would you go to her
01:04:55It will calm her I think
01:04:57It's just an attack
01:04:59It'll pass
01:05:03Robinson sent Thomas down to Gibson's house
01:05:16All right Goosey
01:05:17You get some rest
01:05:51She's come through this time
01:05:52Oh thank you Gibson
01:05:53Praise God she's turned the corner now
01:05:55May I go to her
01:05:56Don't let her talk
01:06:03I think if you'd write to the sons Molly
01:06:05Tell them to come as quickly as may be
01:06:08She's come through this time
01:06:09But it can't be long now
01:06:11Do you know their addresses?
01:06:12I don't know
01:06:13I suppose I can enclose a letter for him in Marjory's
01:06:16Oh yeah that'll do
01:06:16Whatever these two lads may be to the world
01:06:18They're as close to each other as any two brothers that I know
01:06:22And let the squire know that you've done it
01:06:25It'll be the gentlest way of breaking it too
01:06:29Will you tell them one of them?
01:06:31Yes
01:06:32Papa
01:06:48Well I thought you know as the day wore on
01:06:50She got a little stronger
01:06:53What do you think?
01:06:54Whoever's life there's hope
01:06:55I was thinking as soon as she's better
01:07:00We'll take a trip to London or Bath
01:07:03What do you think?
01:07:09When Papa was here this morning
01:07:10He told me to write to Mr. Roger and Mr. Osborne
01:07:15To tell them they had better come home
01:07:19And he wanted me to tell you I had written to them
01:07:23He told you to send for Osborne and Roger?
01:07:29Yes
01:07:32Yes
01:07:33I understand
01:07:38It has come then
01:07:42But it will Osborne brought it on
01:07:46I cannot forgive him for that
01:07:49I cannot
01:08:01You're a good girl
01:08:05God bless you
01:08:16She was asking for Osborne again today
01:08:21Does she know he's coming soon?
01:08:24Any day?
01:08:25Yes
01:08:27But she wants to know where he is
01:08:31I can't tell you
01:08:35But you're sure he'll come?
01:08:37Quite sure
01:08:40Fanny
01:08:44She calls me Fanny sometimes
01:08:46It was the name of a little sister of ours who died
01:08:52I wish I could tell you
01:08:55And her
01:08:56All that I know about Osborne
01:09:00But I'm so involved in promises of secrecy
01:09:31How is she?
01:09:33You will tell me
01:09:35You must know the truth
01:09:36I've travelled night and day since I got your letter
01:09:39She's very ill
01:09:41But I don't think she feels much pain
01:09:44She's wanted you sadly
01:09:45My father sent me away
01:09:48I know
01:09:49I think no one knew how ill she was
01:09:53Oh, you know
01:09:55Yes, she told you a great deal
01:09:57She was very fond of you
01:09:59And God knows how I love her
01:10:04If I'd not been forbidden to come home
01:10:06I should have told her all
01:10:10Molly, is that you?
01:10:18You here, sir?
01:10:19He arrived just a few moments ago
01:10:22Did he?
01:10:27Robinson
01:10:28Mr. Osborne's here
01:10:29Get him what he wants
01:10:31Perhaps he can eat and drink
01:10:33Yes, sir
