00:02I could not remember when I had last felt so ready for change.
00:07A new beginning.
00:16As I traveled to the lakes, I reflected on what the gardeners had taught me.
00:21They did not consider happiness a matter of chance.
00:24Instead, they did everything in their power to cultivate it.
00:30Through them, I could see another way of being.
00:39I could see another one.
00:41I could see another one.
00:50I could see another one.
00:52I could see another one.
00:53I could see another one.
00:55I could see another one.
00:56I could see another one.
00:57Of course, Mother.
00:58I could see another one.
01:01Anne!
01:03Mary!
01:08What are you doing here?
01:10I'm with Mr and Mrs Gardner.
01:11We're traveling to the lakes.
01:12What are you doing here?
01:14Mary, we have much to catch up on.
01:18My mother and I were just taking a rest at the inn.
01:21We're heading home to Nottingham for two weeks.
01:22But what of you and Mr Hayward?
01:25Are you engaged at last?
01:28Actually, Mary, Mr Hayward and I ended our agreement.
01:33Sorry?
01:34I'm now engaged to Mr Powell, who I met at Mr Ryder's Supper.
01:39Oh!
01:40My mother's calling.
01:42Well, someone should tell you.
01:43How is Mr Hayward?
01:47He took the news as well as could be expected.
01:51I cared deeply for Mr Hayward, but we were not a match.
01:55He had, for many years, been trying to advance his career
01:59so that we might be married.
02:01He was texting on us both.
02:03I'm sorry.
02:05You will see him at the lakes, will you not?
02:09Take care of him for me.
02:12Of course.
02:14I must go.
02:16I will call for you on your return to London.
02:30Poor Tom.
02:31He must be heartbroken.
02:34Oh, yes, he must.
02:43Now while the birds thus sing a joyous song,
02:47and while the young lambs bound as to the tabers sound,
02:53I am strong.
02:54To me alone there came a thought of grief.
02:57Timely utterance gave that thought relief.
03:01And I again am strong.
03:07Did you sleep well, Mary?
03:10I had a dream that Mother came to fetch me.
03:13It was quite frightening.
03:14Your mother will not follow you here.
03:17Can we be sure of that?
03:17Mary, your mother hates nature.
03:20And any form of inconvenience.
03:23And the Norse more generally.
03:24Indeed.
03:25Look who I've found.
03:29Tom!
03:29I'm so pleased that you were able to join us.
03:32I'm not interrupting.
03:33No, not at all.
03:34We're very pleased to see.
03:35I thought long and hard about what you said.
03:38I said that he works too hard and should enjoy himself occasionally.
03:42How lovely that someone listens to me.
03:44And we all hang on your every word.
03:48Tom, join us.
03:49I've already eaten.
03:50Oh, well in that case, why don't you two go out and get some fresh air?
03:53Before we head to the lake.
03:56Good idea.
03:57Um...
03:57Yes.
04:12I have some air.
04:14Sorry.
04:15Forgive me.
04:16It was nothing.
04:17Please.
04:19Miss Bennet, I wondered if this might be of use to you.
04:23It's Mr. Worthworth's guide to the lake.
04:26Where geography meets poetry.
04:29Oh.
04:33It is most fortunate that you were able to join us.
04:41Ah.
04:45How was your time at Pemberley?
04:47Miss Bennet.
04:48Oh, Pemberley was...
04:51Very busy.
04:53I'm pleased to hear that your mother has recorded.
04:56Oh, yes. My mother was, um...
04:59Very much back to her old self.
05:02That is a good thing, is it not?
05:03Oh, well, no, yes.
05:05But, um...
05:07Well, in her strengthened state...
05:10I think she may be more disappointed in me now than she has ever been.
05:14Well, I'm very surprised to hear that.
05:16Oh, you have not met my sisters, Mr. Hayward.
05:19They are, each of them, beautiful and accomplished.
05:23I do not compare well.
05:25As my mother often observes.
05:28Miss Bennet.
05:31I am so sorry that anyone has ever made you feel like a disappointment.
05:48I bumped into Anne Baxter.
05:49On the way here.
05:52At... at the coaching inn.
05:54Quite by chance.
05:55Miss...
05:56I'm sorry, Mr. Hayward.
05:58I...
05:59I understand you must be...
06:02suffering...
06:02terribly.
06:05Well...
06:15I heard our friend Mr. Ryder came to visit you at Pemberley.
06:19Oh, well, um...
06:21Yes, uh...
06:21Don!
06:22We should get going!
06:24Yes.
06:26Oh.
06:27We must speak again.
06:29Yes, twice.
06:37I read in my fishing book that we need to find the creases, where the current meets calmer water.
06:42So now...
06:43No.
06:44You're holding the line too tightly.
06:46And you should never have an overfilled spool.
06:48No.
06:48Just loosen it a little.
06:50Yes.
06:50Now I'm cast off.
06:53What's the name of that mountain there?
06:55I believe that is Scarfell.
06:58Mr. Wordsworth, Sister Dorothy climbed Scarfell.
06:59Did she not?
07:00She did.
07:01It's said that you can see all the way up to sea, from up there.
07:04Oh, how wonderful.
07:06Would you be prepared to attend to climb it with me?
07:10Really?
07:11Do you think we're good?
07:11I'd like to.
07:13Are you skilled at physical pursuits, Miss Baxter?
07:14No!
07:15Not in the place!
07:15I think I've got a dog!
07:17I'm enthusiastic.
07:18I'll get the net.
07:19Well, that'll do.
07:20That and good things.
07:25What is it?
07:26I hope I didn't speak out of turn when I mentioned Mr. Ryder's visit.
07:30Oh, no.
07:31Oh, no.
07:31Not at all.
07:32No.
07:33I really only hope that I didn't speak out of turn by mentioning Miss Baxter.
07:38Oh, no.
07:38Not at all.
07:38Not at all.
07:39Miss Baxter and I had just known how I'd speak for it.
07:43Something is definitely good.
07:46It's sizable.
07:47Bring it in.
07:48No, no.
07:49Just let the rod do the work.
07:50So lift and reel.
07:52Lift and reel.
07:54Lift and reel.
07:56I'm supposed to be your supper for the evening.
08:00I'm not eating that.
08:04I'm moving.
08:25Right, no.
08:26I cannot show you, Mr. Hayward.
08:27My sketches are...
08:28They're an offence to both the lake and to art itself.
08:31Oh.
08:34That is quite a feat, Miss Bennett.
08:37Well, for the sake of lifting your spirits, I'll show you my own disastrous drawings.
08:42Please tell no one about what you see.
08:44Do not show me if you're being modest.
08:45I shall feel wretched if yours are actually well drawn.
08:47No, they're not.
08:48And I have to warn you.
08:49It will be impossible for you to ever think of me as on a feeling once you've seen these.
08:52I have no artistic talent.
08:53That's all.
09:04Oh.
09:05Oh.
09:06No, these are...
09:08No, these are quite terrible.
09:10I mean, I don't even know what that is.
09:13Right.
09:14That is a dog, Miss Bennett.
09:15It has too many legs.
09:18Well, could we say that it is stepping on a plank?
09:21I don't think we could.
09:22No.
09:22No.
09:24No.
09:24Perhaps we would enjoy the view more if we weren't trying to replicate it.
09:27Well, I certainly would.
09:31We could go riding.
09:33Do you ride watch, Miss Bennett?
09:35No, that's another thing I possess no skill for.
09:37At Pemberley I went riding with Miss...
09:40Um...
09:41With, uh, Mr. Ryder.
09:42Oh.
09:44Uh...
09:44Um...
09:46Um...
09:46Mr. Ryder and I are not engaged.
09:50If that's what you thought.
09:52Oh.
09:53Uh...
09:54In fact, I'm trying to think of, um...
09:58A different future for myself.
10:00Wondering whether governessing might be possible outside of my family.
10:04I think it would be an excellent governess.
10:08But, uh, Miss Bennett, do you not think that you might perhaps find yourself a match?
10:18Oh.
10:18Uh...
10:19No.
10:19No.
10:20No.
10:20Mr. Hayward, no.
10:22I'm at peace with that.
10:25Do you not think it might be worth you having one last look about?
10:29Just to make sure.
10:30No.
10:32No.
10:32I've learnt my lesson.
10:33Any looking about will only lead to disappointment.
10:39Oh.
10:40Anyway, I'm sure...
10:41I'm sure you do not wish to discuss...
10:44engagements.
10:47Well, the truth is...
10:48Is there a lark?
10:49That sings?
10:50Mr. Hayward?
10:53Well...
10:53No, perhaps it is a thrush.
10:55No, no.
10:55Uh, the lark is more melodic.
10:57The thrush is, um...
11:02Well, I mean, it's sort of more...
11:04It has a variety of sounds.
11:05More like...
11:07Yes.
11:09But, they may sing differently up here.
11:11Oh.
11:12In London, they sound like...
11:17I find the lark is a bit more...
11:23I think...
11:24The lark's quite a difficult one to get right.
11:27It's quite true.
11:27Hard in the throat.
11:28Which...
11:28Yes, sir.
11:29In truth, the only bird call that I'm entirely confident with is that of the london pigeon.
11:45Come in!
11:50Good evening, Mary.
11:57How have you enjoyed your day?
12:00Very much so.
12:04You and Mr. Hayward get along very well.
12:10He must surely be quite devastated about Anne Baxter.
12:14Hmm.
12:16If he is...
12:18He's concealing his heartache quite convincingly.
12:22He seems in good spirits.
12:25I always wondered if they're entirely well suited.
12:29Really?
12:30I'm sure Mr. Hayward felt that they were.
12:34Did he?
12:38Good night, Mary.
12:45Good night, Mary.
12:58Good night, Mary.
13:15What are you reading?
13:221010 Abbey.
13:23Oh, that's not my favourite.
13:25I am quite fed up with it.
13:27It does not easily give up its secrets.
13:32Would you read it to me?
13:36From where you are.
13:40Oh, well.
13:51In hours of weariness, sensation sweet.
13:56Felt in the blood and felt along the heart.
13:59And passing even into my purer mind, with tranquil restoration, feelings too of unremembered pleasure.
14:11Would you mind, could you read on?
14:12I'd like to take some notes on that last bit.
14:19I will read on what perhaps you could try not to worry about notes, Miss Bennet.
14:36For I've learned to look on nature, not as in the hour of thoughtless youth.
14:43But hearing, often times, still sad music of humanity, nor harsh nor grating, though of ample power to chasten and
14:54subdue.
14:56And I have felt a presence that disturbs me with the joy of elevated thoughts.
15:09What do you think?
15:13Yes, no, um...
15:16Mr. Wordsworth is...
15:17Well, he's explaining our connection to nature and...
15:22To all of this.
15:25And how that connection...
15:28Grows as we age.
15:39Yes.
15:41I've read this poem a thousand times.
15:45Sitting here, I finally feel its true power.
15:52So do I.
16:11I have been trying to clarify something, Miss Bennet.
16:15I would like you to know that it was something of a relief to end my understanding with Miss Baxter.
16:19We were quite young when we made our agreement.
16:22And over that time, my feelings had changed.
16:25Recently, I found that they'd changed quite significantly.
16:28And I hope...
16:32I hope that you'd feel the same way.
16:37Ahoy!
16:39Ahoy there!
16:43Ahoy!
16:44Is that Ryder?
16:46What is he doing here?
16:48Will, you're right!
16:49Why is he getting into the water?
16:51Oh, he's absolutely typical of that man.
16:54And an impatient and ill-thought-through.
16:55Mr. Ryder, please be careful!
17:02What a beautiful day!
17:04What are you doing here?
17:08Mr. Ryder, please let me...
17:10Oh, go!
17:13Mr. Ry...
17:13Come on, Edward.
17:15A little bit harder.
17:15Be careful.
17:21Mr. Hayward!
17:23I'm fine.
17:25How do you always manage to cause such a scene?
17:27It's vibrating, isn't it?
17:32Could you help, Miss Bennett?
17:33Yes!
17:34Miss Bennett, could you get an oar, please?
17:36Yes, of course.
17:39No, that's not quite what's in it.
17:42Miss Bennett, could you get the other one?
17:45Yeah.
17:45And hold on to the other end.
17:47Yes.
17:54Let go.
17:55The last thing we want is to pull Miss Bennett in.
17:57No, let go.
17:59Oh, sorry, yes!
18:03Right!
18:05Well, we'll have to swim back.
18:06Yes.
18:07Well, we can't leave Miss Bennett here.
18:10Sorry.
18:20I'm afraid you're going to have to put in more effort than that.
18:23It's isn't easy.
18:25Yes, well, we wouldn't be in this situation if you'd have waited on the floor like any other dead boy.
18:32I think I swallowed the water.
18:34Yes, I'm sure.
18:56Thank you, Mr. Ryder.
18:58Mr. Gardner, Mrs. Gardner.
19:01Please forgive me intruding.
19:03I needed legal advice, and when I heard Tom was in the lakes, well, I could hardly resist.
19:08How lovely to see you, Mr. Ryder.
19:10What is this legal matter that simply could not wait?
19:13Oh, it's not urgent.
19:14No, let's enjoy ourselves first.
19:17I had not realised I would find such a happy party gathered here.
19:21You two will catch your death.
19:22Go and change.
19:24On such a beautiful day, I can barely feel the cold.
19:38Well, that was a much more adventurous day than I've been imagining.
19:42Yes, it was quite unexpected all around.
19:45I mean, what the Hirsts are here?
19:47Greetings from London.
19:51Miss Bennet.
19:52Mr. Hirst.
19:53Mr. Hirst, Mr. Hirst.
19:55What is that smell?
19:56Is this the whole of your party?
19:58Or is...
19:59Louisa?
19:59Have you seen my silver reshacule?
20:03Miss Bingley.
20:04Miss Bingley.
20:05Ryder, why are you undressed?
20:10Well, I have never been anywhere so wet and muddy in all my life.
20:14And what is that smell?
20:15That's what I said.
20:16That's oxygen.
20:16That's really the smell of fresh air.
20:20Miss Bennet.
20:21No one mentioned you were going to be here.
20:24And yet, here I am.
20:27Right, well.
20:28We ought to get ourselves settled in these frightfully small rooms.
20:32Louisa?
20:32Mr. Hirst?
20:33Right, I will change and meet you all for supper.
20:37By the fire to warm us up.
20:41And also, excuse me.
20:43Miss Bennet.
20:46Mary.
20:50Sir, I know more of your people to our clients, one.
20:53Other mine.
20:55I've arranged for the guide to be just here.
20:57Ah, yes.
20:58Mr. Gardiner tells us that you are climbing Scarfell tomorrow.
21:01That is true.
21:03Then we shall join you.
21:05You would need to make proper preparations before undertaking such a climb.
21:09Of course, Mr. Hayward would rather confine us to smooth lakes and calm views.
21:13I would just be happy to make it through the day without one of your particular adventures.
21:18What about you, Miss Bingley?
21:19What?
21:20Mrs. Hirst, will you join us?
21:22Well, it is a difficult climb.
21:24A most difficult climb.
21:26I have long wished to see the place that birthed such magnificent verses.
21:31A few inconveniences on the way are a small price to pay.
21:35Do you read poetry, Miss Bingley?
21:36I didn't know you cared for it.
21:37It is a passion I share only with my friends.
21:42Tell me, how long will this climb take?
21:45I think I'll tell you.
21:46Well, it depends on our pace.
21:48I think the guide will be able to give us a better estimate.
21:50Mr. Ryder, I am...
22:05Perhaps you and I might walk together tomorrow, away from the ground.
22:12I'd very much like that.
22:16And at the top of the mountain, we might finish that conversation that we started.
22:22On the box.
22:27Tom, shall we discuss provisions for the climb?
22:31Good night, Miss Bennet.
22:35Excuse me, I just...
22:39Miss Bennet, I have been wanting to speak to you to apologize for my proposal at Beverly.
22:49Please think no more of it.
22:51I now see a way in which it is possible for us to have all that and still conform.
22:59I'd hope to see you again in London, but I found you here and that must mean something.
23:07My situation has changed somewhat and...
23:10Mr. Ryder, we need your knowledge of the mountains to settle an argument.
23:15One moment.
23:18Miss Bennet, the top of Scarfell Pike is the most beautiful place I have ever seen.
23:26Once we get there, I will make amends to you.
23:37I had arrived in the lakes determined to make my own way in the world.
23:42Could it be that once I had firmly accepted, I did not wish to marry at all?
23:46I had somehow won the admiration of two dear friends.
