00:00:04Today is my sister's wedding day, Jane's marrying the Earl of Windhealth, our debts will be cleared, father's honor restored.

00:00:53had to be you who found this, don't come looking for me, Jane.
00:00:58Jane, do you know that if you run away from your wedding with the Earl of Windeck, the Fenwick family
00:01:03will be ruined completely?
00:01:16The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family, before Sir Reginald ruined it.
00:01:20Indeed, if not for some old favour the Fenwicks once did the late Earl, it's hard to imagine this match
00:01:25ever being considered at all.
00:01:41Miss, Mr Vale has come to hurry things along twice already.
00:01:47I know.
00:01:50Miss, you can't go in like this.

00:16:36good night
00:16:48Letta.
00:17:04God, how could I dream something like that about him?
00:17:07I must be out of my mind.
00:17:09My lady, breakfast is ready.
00:17:14Coming!
00:17:29I was unsure of your preferences, so I asked the cook to prepare a variety.
00:17:37He arranged all of this. What does he take me for?
00:17:40It would appear that his lordship is determined to keep you abundantly supplied.
00:17:54I shall do my best to return in time for the gathering at Whitmore this evening.
00:18:06Lady Wyndham. How lovely to find you here.
00:18:12And all on your own.
00:18:15Rupert. You know Lady Wyndham, I believe.
00:18:18Miss Fenwick.
00:18:21My apologies, Lady Winford. The title still takes one by surprise, I must admit.
00:18:26Good evening, Miss Vane.
00:18:28Mr. Bellamy.
00:18:29Rupert and I have some happy news.
00:18:31We're to be formally engaged at the Mikiel Miss Ball.
00:18:34Dorothea was gracious enough to accept me.
00:18:36Though, I suspect she rather enjoys making me wait.
00:18:40Our union, of course, has been rather more conventional.
00:18:44Years of acquaintance, shared society, a genuine understanding of one another's character.
00:18:50How refreshing that some marriages may still be arranged so expeditiously.
00:18:57My lady, a message for you.
00:19:06Cannot return to Thornwith before midnight.
00:19:09Enjoy the party.
00:19:15Another entire evening to yourself.
00:19:17One cannot help but wonder, had you known, why bother to attend at all?
00:19:22Lord Wyndham chose to marry me, Dorothea.
00:19:25I've never felt the need to examine his reasons too closely.
00:19:29Come, Rupert.
00:19:30It's been ages since I last danced.
00:19:33You must indulge me this evening.
00:19:51Lady Wyndham.
00:19:52What a fortunate coincidence.
00:19:54Mr. Bellman.
00:19:55I assume your fiancée is inside.
00:19:57Ah, yes.
00:19:58I stepped out for some air and seemed to have lost my way.
00:20:02You look very well, Lady Winford.
00:20:04Marriage suits you.
00:20:05I believe I should return home.
00:20:06No need to hurry.
00:20:07It's a fine night.
00:20:08That's enough, Mr. Bellman.
00:20:10Come now, Elizabeth.
00:20:11A woman as young as you, as lovely as you,
00:20:15deserves far more than a cold bed and a husband...
00:20:18That's enough, Mr. Bellman.
00:20:21I mean it kindly.
00:20:33Good heavens, how did I end up here?
00:20:36My lady, I'm coming.
00:20:50Lady Wyndham.
00:20:52You are going the wrong way.
00:20:54Allow me to show you out.
00:21:02Then let me be plain, Mr. Bellman.
00:21:05Leave these grounds at once.
00:21:09And who exactly is meant to make me?
00:21:20There is no need to be alarmed.
00:21:23I only wish to talk.
00:21:25Then speak from where you stand.
00:21:29My dear.
00:21:34Stop!
00:21:38What do you think you're doing?
00:21:42Dorothea, you must forgive me.
00:21:43I was only trying to remove myself from a most uncomfortable situation.
00:21:47Lady Wyndham sought me out.
00:21:48Elizabeth!
00:21:49How dare you try and scare my fiancé at a gathering like this?
00:21:52That is not...
00:21:53I mean no disrespect, but I am a man of honour,
00:21:55and I think it best to be plain.
00:21:57Good Lord.
00:21:58Did she really try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancé?
00:22:03I've long suspected she wasn't quite respectable.
00:22:07I shall inform Lord Edward at once he'll have you turned out of Thornwood without hesitation.
00:22:11Now, apologise to my fiancé.
00:22:13At once.
00:22:14Miss Vane,
00:22:16you will address me correctly,
00:22:17or you will not address me at all.
00:22:19You are not worth the courtesy.
00:22:36My lord, thank god you're here.
00:22:39Lady Winford approached Rupert herself.
00:22:41We were only trying to...
00:22:43When did he arrive?
00:22:44How much did he hear?
00:22:45Does he believe them?
00:22:47Are you hurt?
00:22:53Edward.
00:23:02My apologies.
00:23:03I seem to have arrived a moment too late.
00:23:07Good Lord!
00:23:09Has Lord Widener really ruined a hundred-year-old young maize?
00:23:13For a wife of such low birth...
00:23:19Let every person here who has dishonoured my wife hear me.
00:23:23Before this night is over,
00:23:24you will regret it.
00:23:26Yes, my lord!
00:23:27Edward!
00:23:27What?
00:23:28My lord!
00:23:29I am your cousin!
00:23:31You cannot treat me like this!
00:23:33If you mean to say you're my mother's cousin's granddaughter,
00:23:37I've over fifty others just like you.
00:23:44Grateful girl!
00:23:46What on earth possessed you to insult the Countess of Wyndham?
00:23:51You wretched boy!
00:23:52I paid off your gambling seats with the Earl's own money!
00:23:56How dare you make yourself a nuisance before him and his wife!
00:24:01You have endured enough.
00:24:04Home awaits us.
00:24:08Edward, you must know.
00:24:10I did not seek Mr. Bellarmine out.
00:24:12I...
00:24:12I know.
00:24:13I know precisely what kind of man he is.
00:24:15I believe you, Elizabeth.
00:24:17We have been married for a few days now.
00:24:20We have.
00:24:22And I find I know remarkably little about you.
00:24:25I believe goes both ways.
00:24:27Perhaps this presents an opportunity to remedy that.
00:24:29We might begin with a kiss.
00:24:34He's asking to kiss me.
00:24:36On horseback.
00:24:37Out in the open in the middle of the night.
00:24:39God knows how long I've waited for this moment.
00:24:42You have my permission.
00:25:00It's alright.
00:25:01He's settled now.
00:25:08We're home.
00:25:12My lord.
00:25:13My lady.
00:25:21I'll see you shortly, Elizabeth.
00:25:24Shortly?
00:25:25What does he mean, shortly?
00:25:26Tonight?
00:25:28I thought I had rather expected.
00:25:29I seem to have expected it more than I realised.
00:25:31Yes.
00:25:32Shortly then.
00:25:47Of course.
00:25:49Of all nights, it would be this one.
00:26:00Come in.
00:26:04There's something I must tell you.
00:26:05It concerns a domestic matter.
00:26:10I see.
00:26:15Does he?
00:26:16Does he truly?
00:26:17Please God.
00:26:18Let him understand without making me say it outright.
00:26:21Come.
00:26:33No.
00:26:34Not like this.
00:26:37How are you feeling?
00:26:39Rather better, thank you.
00:26:41Forgive me.
00:26:42Elizabeth.
00:26:43Yes.
00:26:44Stop apologising.
00:26:45Elizabeth.
00:26:46Yes, very well.
00:26:49Elizabeth.
00:26:56Elizabeth.
00:27:17Elizabeth.
00:27:30He's gone. Of course he's gone. I failed him last night. Come in.
00:28:00There's something wrong. No. No, nothing. I wasn't certain of your preference this morning. Mrs. Hilda suggested something warm. There's
00:28:13chocolate, if you'd prefer it to tea.
00:28:38You have.
00:28:42This hand is still warm.
00:28:48I thought we might out to Ravenscurred Park before week's end. My mother has expressed a wish to receive you.
00:28:57Yes. I should like it that very much.
00:29:03I should propose Fridays, perhaps, for the fulfillment of our marital obligations.
00:29:14Yes. Friday would suit me perfectly well. I feel quite confident I shall be equal to my obligations by next
00:29:23Friday.
00:29:31Yes.
00:29:44Yeah.
00:29:44Yes.
00:29:47Yes.
00:29:48Yes.
00:29:49Yes.
00:29:50Yes.
00:29:51Yes.
00:29:52Yes.
00:29:52You, there
00:29:52have them. Yes. Yes.
00:30:04Go on.
00:30:05Vale will see you in.
00:30:07I shall be long.
00:30:10Of course.
00:30:36Flea.
00:30:51That's Edward's mother.
00:30:53She looks so young to find.
00:30:58Lady Adelaine.
00:31:00Forgive the intrusion.
00:31:02I am...
00:31:11Lady Wyndon.
00:31:15I had wondered when we should meet.
00:31:17I am Cecilia.
00:31:19Lady Adelaine was called away unexpectedly.
00:31:23She asked me to receive you in her place.
00:31:24That's her.
00:31:27Cecilia Marlowe.
00:31:28Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:31The woman Edward wants to love.
00:31:35Your grace.
00:31:37The pleasure is mine.
00:31:38Please, none of that.
00:31:39We're practically family now.
00:31:41Adelaine will be back shortly.
00:31:42In the meantime, Georgina, Edward's younger sister, is in the South Garden.
00:31:45Shall we?
00:31:46Lady Adelaide summoned me.
00:31:47Yet she's here.
00:31:49Was she hoping Edward would meet with her instead?
00:31:57She carries herself as if she owns the place.
00:32:14So you've finally emerged from your greenhouse, sissy.
00:32:17After all these years in London, let's see whether your aim has suffered.
00:32:22I've been waiting here for our guest, as my mother asked.
00:32:25Elizabeth, this is Georgiana.
00:32:26We call her Georgie.
00:32:27Georgie, this is Elizabeth.
00:32:28Ah, the new Lady Wyndham.
00:32:30And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:32I read.
00:32:33I write.
00:32:33I am sure Lady Wyndham has many other accomplishments, Georgie.
00:32:37Of course she does.
00:32:37Most people do when they can't shoot.
00:32:39No offense, Elizabeth.
00:32:41It simply requires a certain constitution.
00:32:44Not everyone has it.
00:32:45Perhaps Lady Wyndham would care to try.
00:32:47It is only fair to offer.
00:32:48Oh, by all means, bring another gun.
00:32:53A gun for beginners.
00:32:57You know your way around guns?
00:32:59Elizabeth, you needn't oblige.
00:33:02Georgie is only teasing.
00:33:04You can watch if you prefer.
00:33:16Well.
00:33:19You had three.
00:33:20I shall not be greedy.
00:33:34Mother.
00:33:35Where on earth did you find her?
00:33:37She found me.
00:33:39I like her.
00:33:43So do I.
00:33:49Come in.
00:33:51Come in.
00:33:55My mother asked me to convey her apologies.
00:33:59She had no intention of neglecting you today.
00:34:01I understand.
00:34:03Georgiana and the Duchess of Ravensbrow made the afternoon quite agree of all.
00:34:09It's Friday.
00:34:10So it is.
00:34:12I must admit, I am not entirely certain how one is meant to begin.
00:34:16Nor am I.
00:34:22I should warn you, there are rather a great many hooks.
00:34:25Twenty-three.
00:34:29I see.
00:34:44I confess, I don't quite know what I meant to do with my...
00:34:50Elizabeth.
00:34:52You are not supposed to do anything.
00:35:02The desk.
00:35:04I thought you might find it easier to begin with.
00:35:08I did not realize how warm his hands would feel.
00:35:20Breathe.
00:35:21Breathe.
00:35:23You are going to suffocate yourself.
00:35:32Are you ready?
00:35:34Aye.
00:35:38I'll take that as a yes.
00:35:42Let's begin.
00:36:01Child.
00:36:18I'll take that as much as I can.
00:36:20I'm not the only one in this world.
00:36:20Come on.
00:36:26All right, you absolutely must tell me everything.
00:36:31I've no idea what you mean.
00:36:32Elizabeth Winwyn, née Fenwork.
00:36:35You arrived at my door this morning wearing the very expression of a woman who has just discovered something rather
00:36:41surprising about the world.
00:36:43Was it? Was it Friday?
00:36:47You are incredible.
00:36:49I am your oldest friend and I deserve details. Was he...
00:36:52He was... considerate. Extraordinary so.
00:36:58How?
00:36:59He made quite certain that I was comfortable.
00:37:03Before anything else. Several times, in fact.
00:37:09Good Lord.
00:37:10That is all I shall say on the subject. And afterward? In the morning?
00:37:16He said, come back to bed. As though I'd been there all along. Only meant to return.
00:37:23He held my hand.
00:37:27Lizzie.
00:37:30Don't.
00:37:31You like him.
00:37:34I am beginning to think I might.
00:37:42We're stuck in the mud.
00:37:53We'll need to push from the left. Wedge something under the wheel first.
00:37:57There's a plank in the ditch.
00:37:59Perhaps we ought to wait for someone to pass by.
00:38:07Perhaps we ought to wait for someone to pass by.
00:38:13Lizzie.
00:38:14How can I pass by?
00:38:27Same as ever. Still finding trouble on a perfectly straight road.
00:38:31The road found me. I was perfectly innocent.
00:38:36Of course you were. You always were.
00:38:40Edgar Lennox. A viscant son.
00:38:43The summer I was 14, he taught me to sketch on the crumbling mill wall.
00:38:46Charcoal everywhere.
00:38:48My mother spent three days scrubbing my dress clean.
00:38:50Then he left for Italy.
00:38:53Is that... Edgar?
00:38:56I thought he was still in Italy.
00:39:06I am Lady Winford now, Mr. Lennox.
00:39:09I trust you will do me the kindness of remembering it.
00:39:11Forgive me. I had not heard of the marriage.
00:39:14I hope you are well, Lady Wind.
00:39:15I am. Thank you.
00:39:17Give my regards to Lord Wyndham.
00:39:28Six years without a word.
00:39:30And now he returns at just this moment.
00:39:31He didn't know, Harriet.
00:39:33Perhaps not.
00:39:34Lord Wyndham is worth ten of him. You know that, don't you?
00:39:39Come. The road is clear now.
00:39:47She was smiling at him, did you see?
00:39:49A married woman smiling at a man like that, out in the open road.
00:39:52She stepped away from him, Georgie. That much was plain enough.
00:39:55I shall tell Edward.
00:39:56I shall tell him exactly what I saw, and he will...
00:39:59Do as you think best, my dear.
00:40:01You know your brother better than I do.
00:40:15Edward, there's something I must tell you.
00:40:17It concerns your wife.
00:40:18Good morning to you too, Georgina.
00:40:21I was riding this morning, along the north road.
00:40:24I saw her, with a man.
00:40:26They were standing awfully close together, and he...
00:40:28Close together, you say?
00:40:29Why, yes, and he... he took hold of her sleeve.
00:40:33And then?
00:40:34She drew back in the end.
00:40:36But she knew him well, Edward. He called her Lizzie.
00:40:39What was the man's name?
00:40:41Lennox. Edgar Lennox.
00:40:42I've heard of this Edgar Lennox, the Viscount's son,
00:40:45and the one who has been off painting in Italy for the past six years.
00:40:48Then you must also know that he and Elizabeth were once...
00:40:50You followed her.
00:40:51No. I just happened to be passing by...
00:40:54Georgiana.
00:40:58Elizabeth is Lady Windworm. She is the mistress of this house.
00:41:01Whom she encounters on the road, with whom she speaks,
00:41:03with whom she spends her time,
00:41:04such matters are of importance to her and her alone.
00:41:07You should have married a true lady,
00:41:08not some vulgar country woman.
00:41:11Go home, Georgina.
00:41:16Edgar Lennox.
00:41:20My lady.
00:41:22His lordship has inquired as to whether you might be at leisure this afternoon.
00:41:26Did he indicate the purpose of said inquiry?
00:41:29He said he'd like to, and I quote precisely,
00:41:31take you out for a ride.
00:41:32He mentioned the North Meadow.
00:41:36Please convey to his lordship that I shall be ready in twenty minutes.
00:41:39Of course, my lady.
00:41:47Georgiana paid me a visit this morning.
00:41:50I imagine she did not call upon you to converse about the weather.
00:41:53You encountered Edgar Lennox on the North Road this morning.
00:42:10Georgiana is young, and her emotions have been known to obscure her judgment.
00:42:13I thought you should know that I sent her right away.
00:42:16He didn't ask me to ride because he sought to question me.
00:42:19It's because he wished to inform me he sent Georgiana away.
00:42:23He's telling me he stands on my side.
00:42:28Thank you, Edward.
00:42:29For what?
00:42:30We're married.
00:42:31You need not thank me.
00:42:34Edgar Lennox has spent six years in Italy.
00:42:36He may want to consider spending six more.
00:42:39The further he remains from my wife, the better.
00:42:49I cannot believe this.
00:42:51He sent me away.
00:42:55Tell me what happened.
00:43:01He accused me of following her.
00:43:03He is a loyal man, always has been.
00:43:05And now his loyalty is wasted on the wrong person.
00:43:09Has he any engagements away from Thornwood?
00:43:12He leaves for Dertshire on Thursday.
00:43:16He will surely be thinking of his new bride each moment he's away from her.
00:43:27Edward chose her.
00:43:32Very well.
00:43:34Then let him see the true nature of this choice.
00:43:47She still harbors feelings for me.
00:44:15East wing, old timber frames.
00:44:17It's three stories of curtains and correspondence.
00:44:21And everything Edward Window has ever cared to preserve.
00:44:24And now a single oil lamp shall make it all disappear.
00:44:34Lady Winfield and her lover.
00:44:37Once Edward lays eyes on their charred bodies, he will surely return to me.
00:44:52Elizabeth!
00:44:53Elizabeth!
00:44:57Elizabeth!
00:45:05My lord!
00:45:07It began in the lower storey. Where's Lady Wyndham? We have not been able to find Lady Wyndham, but we
00:45:12brought someone out from the East Wing. A man.
00:45:17Elizabeth, she's still inside.
00:45:24And just how are you so sure Lady Wyndham is in there? What were you doing at Thornfield in the
00:45:29middle of the night?
00:45:31Edward, I'm so sorry. I did not wish to be the one... What is that in your hand?
00:45:36Edward, it bears Elizabeth's handwriting.
00:45:39I received a note. I believed it to be... You believed it to be from my wife.
00:45:46Edward, you must see that all evidence points to Elizabeth and this man.
00:45:51Elizabeth is still inside.
00:45:52Of course she's inside! That wicked adult is sure to be caged and paraded around the square!
00:45:59Edward!
00:45:59Edward!
00:46:03Miss, don't! It's not safe in there!
00:46:07My brother! Henry, you must save my brother!
00:46:10Miss, I'm sorry!
00:46:14He ran head first into that fire. For her.
00:46:26Henry, how did the fire start? Why are all of you just standing here? And you? What are you doing
00:46:31here?
00:46:31You... You're not stuck in the fire?
00:46:34Why on earth would I venture to the east wing in the middle of the night?
00:46:37You wretched creature. How did you get so lucky?
00:46:40No matter. Edward just ran to his death. You have no one to rely on now.
00:46:44And as a duchess, shall be my god-begin right to walk all over you.
00:46:48My lady, his lordship has gone into the fire!
00:46:51You what? Why?
00:46:53Elizabeth! Elizabeth! My brother is still in there! What do we do?
00:46:58He ran in because he thought you were trapped inside! Oh dear, how did this happen?
00:47:02Let go, Georgiana.
00:47:03No!
00:47:11She didn't write that note. She can't have written that note.
00:47:22It was you!
00:47:25Cecilia, is it true?
00:47:29No! I had nothing to do with that letter! He's slanting me!
00:47:34Edward!
00:47:40Elizabeth, go back.
00:47:53Foolish woman.
00:47:54Reckless man.
00:48:05I thought I'd lost you.
00:48:07You're safe.
00:48:13I...
00:48:14I was wrong about it.
00:48:22Not every wife would run into a burning building for her husband.
00:48:25Why did you do it?
00:48:27You went in there for me. I couldn't leave you to die.
00:48:30Oh, Elizabeth.
00:48:31Whatever am I gonna do with you?
00:48:33You.
00:48:49Get in before the water goes cold.
00:48:54Edward.
00:48:55That note Edgar received, it wasn't written by me.
00:48:58I know.
00:48:59As it happens, I also received a note, signed with Edgar's name. But I did not go to meet him.
00:49:05I'm glad to hear that.
00:49:08That's all?
00:49:11It was Cecilia. She did all of this.
00:49:16Cecilia.
00:49:19She is my mother's goddaughter. She grew up around us. There was a time when certain arrangements were considered by
00:49:27my mother, by Cecilia's family. I knew they were in favor of me.
00:49:31And were you?
00:49:33I've never made any promises to Cecilia. If she had hopes, they were not hopes I invited or confirmed. As
00:49:40for me, I forgot about her entirely on the morning I married you.
00:49:48Edgar Lenniston and I, we grew up together as well. He taught me to make charcoal drawings. That is the
00:49:56whole of it, Edward. There's nothing more.
00:49:57Well then, now there are no secrets between us.
00:50:02Now there are no secrets between us.
00:50:06It's Friday today.
00:50:08Yes, indeed it is.
00:50:09There are about two hours left until dawn. Perhaps you might like to watch the sunrise with me?
00:50:18Yes, I'd like that.
00:50:25May I?
00:50:27Yes, you may.
00:50:37This.
00:50:39This is what home feels like.
00:50:51My lord, the Dowchage Duchess of Ravensborough has called upon you. I informed her that you are not at leisure,
00:50:57but she still has not taken her leave.
00:51:00Show her in, Henry.
00:51:08Thank you for seeing me, Edward.
00:51:10Say what you have come to say, Cecilia.
00:51:13You know very well why I am here. Georgiana won't see me. Your mother hasn't replied to my last three
00:51:19letters.
00:51:20And you've issued a formal notice. I'm no longer welcome at Thornfield, Girth, nor at any Wyndham property in the
00:51:26county.
00:51:27That's correct.
00:51:28Edward, please. We've known each other since we were little. You carried me home on your back when I broke
00:51:33my ankle at the Thornfield harvest.
00:51:35Yes, I recall. I also recall that during that same autumn you told me that you intended to marry someone
00:51:41wealthier than a mere earl.
00:51:44Such was my obligation, Edward. You know my family's circumstances. You know I had no choice.
00:51:49And you, you waited too, Edward. All these years. A Thornfield without a mistress, without a bride-to-be.
00:51:57Do not be misled into thinking I was waiting for you.
00:52:00That's not... Don't say that, Edward. You know that's not what I...
00:52:03You've been a widow for eight months. And in those eight months you have come to Shropshire, established yourself at
00:52:08Ravenscore,
00:52:08cultivate my sister's trust, and forge a letter designed to do nothing less than destroy my wife's reputation.
00:52:14I did what I believed. I wasn't finished, Vasilia. You also set fire to the east wing of my home.
00:52:21You should be grateful that my wife was not there last night. Otherwise you would not be standing in my
00:52:26study, but rather in my dungeon.
00:52:28She's not right for you, Edward. Whatever you feel now, it will pass.
00:52:32This afternoon you will return to your home in London, and you will not come back.
00:52:37No. You can't treat me this way. I'm the Dowage Gunchess of Ravenshile.
00:52:42Do not forget that I am not just the Earl of Wyndham. I am also the Prince Regent's companion.
00:52:49Do you wish what you have done to become known through all of London? I suggest you preserve what's left
00:52:53of your dignity, Sushi.
00:52:55Do you love her?
00:52:57Yes. I do.
00:53:11Good. Now it's time to deal with the next one.
00:53:23She came back for him. And now it's all gone up in flames.
00:53:44May I come in? Please.
00:53:47I didn't know Cecilia would attempt to harm you.
00:53:49I know.
00:53:50I'm sorry. I owe you an apology, Elizabeth. Several, in fact.
00:53:54I forgive you.
00:53:56So, do you reckon we could be friends from now on?
00:53:59Of course.
00:54:04Georgiana.
00:54:06I know you love your brother.
00:54:09And I do too.
00:54:19In all the years I've known him, he's never been serious about anyone the way he is about you.
00:54:25I know.
00:54:25By the way, you shoot better than I do.
00:54:30You're not a bad shot yourself.
00:54:40I'm leaving to London as a painter summoned by the King.
00:54:44Yes.
00:54:46I had heard rumours of such an arrangement.
00:54:48The night of the fire, I saw him run into the flames to look for you, without hesitation.
00:54:55That was the moment I knew had lost you.
00:54:58May London be everything you deserve, Edgar.
00:55:00I hope you paint something magnificent.
00:55:07Give my regards to Lord Wyndolin.
00:55:20Edgar.
00:55:22He's gone.
00:55:24I know.
00:55:25The King offered him a very generous commission.
00:55:28He is a talented man. It would have been a waste.
00:55:31Edward.
00:55:33Yes?
00:55:37I feel as if I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.
00:55:41I'll take that as a compliment.
00:55:44Come.
00:55:45My Lord.
00:55:52Elizabeth!
00:55:57Elizabeth!
00:56:00Elizabeth?
00:56:02Elizabeth?
00:56:07Elizabeth?
00:56:08ELIZABETH!
00:56:19The fall did her no lasting harm, my lord.
00:56:22However, I've noticed that Lady Winford is showing signs of...
00:56:26...fatigue.
00:56:32Pardon me?
00:56:34Congratulations, my lord.
00:56:38Yes.
00:56:39Thank you, Dr. Holt.
00:56:59So, we're going to have a child?
00:57:05Yes.
00:57:07Yes, we are.
00:57:09This is beyond my wildest dreams, Elizabeth.
00:57:15I'm sure you will want to tell your mother.
00:57:21I shall have the carriage prepared for Thursday.
00:57:23Vale will accompany you.
00:57:26And take a warm blanket.
00:57:27The mornings are cold now.
00:57:29I know I needn't thank the man I married.
00:57:32But I'd like to thank you on behalf of my mother, Edward.
00:57:48I don't know.
00:57:49I have to leave.
00:57:49I'm alive.
00:57:49I'm so sorry.
00:57:52I can't believe we will go.
00:58:05I have to let my mouth open.
00:58:14I don't know.
00:58:35I don't know.
00:58:47Mother!
00:58:54Ah, Elizabeth.
00:58:57To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:59:01Come with me, Mother.
00:59:03Now.
00:59:06This is my house.
00:59:08She doesn't leave without my permission.
00:59:13Are you challenging the Countess of Wyndham, Sir Reginald?
00:59:25I'm pregnant.
00:59:27You're pregnant!
00:59:30Oh, God bless you, my child!
00:59:36Mother.
00:59:39I want to take you to Thornwood.
00:59:42You'll come chasing after us.
00:59:44You know how he gets when he's angry.
00:59:48Then he'll sneak out when he's not looking.
00:59:52Then he'll sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:05Margaret!
01:00:11Keep moving.
01:00:12Don't look back.
01:00:16Elizabeth!
01:00:22It's Edward!
01:00:24It's Edward!
01:00:34It's Edward!
01:00:37He's coming after us!
01:00:40Let him come.
01:00:46Lord Wyndham!
01:00:48What an honour!
01:00:49Though I must tell you this is a family matter.
01:00:52It is for me as well.
01:00:53Lady Margaret leaves with us tonight, and you shall not follow her.
01:00:57She's my wife, Lord Wyndham!
01:00:59By law she's required to-
01:01:01By law, yes.
01:01:04Shall we discuss law, Sir Reginald?
01:01:14Come in.
01:01:21My lord, I have come to take my wife home.
01:01:26These are private accounts, my lord. You have no right to-
01:01:28The Fenwood Estate carries debts to four creditors in this council.
01:01:32Two of those creditors sold their notes last month.
01:01:36To me, the roof you sleep under, the fields you work on, the horses in your stable.
01:01:41The papers holding your whole world together are sitting in my solicitor's office in Shrowsborough.
01:01:46My lord, I have always treated my family with the utmost-
01:01:51I have seen perfectly clearly how you treat your family.
01:01:55Lady Margaret's personal income will be administered through my estate, to be used as she pleases.
01:02:00If I receive word from any source that you have interfered with this agreement,
01:02:04you will lose your house, your land, and whatever is left of your name in this county.
01:02:14My wife sends her regards.
01:02:28He'll take me away, I know it.
01:02:31Oh lord, that man will never let me leave him.
01:02:34No.
01:02:36Edward will handle everything.
01:02:39I saw them in the study this morning.
01:02:41As did I.
01:02:44Elizabeth.
01:02:44Elizabeth.
01:02:46Is he...
01:02:47Is he a good man, your lord?
01:02:59He's the best man I've ever met, mother.
01:03:12Now let me tell you...
01:03:15Believe it's just working.
01:03:33How long will you be gone for?
01:03:34Four months, perhaps.
01:03:39I don't wish to go.
01:03:41I know. I know you don't.
01:03:45Elizabeth, I...
01:03:46It's Friday, you know.
01:03:55I'll be gentle.
01:03:57So will I.
01:03:59Don't be too gentle.
01:04:13I promise you'll write me.
01:04:17Every day.
01:04:34My lord.
01:04:36It is the 14th of March, and your child has spent this morning using my ribs as a set of
01:04:42piano keys.
01:04:43Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy, and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:47Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:50We both eagerly await your return.
01:04:59A letter from London, my lady, in his lordship's own hand.
01:05:07Elizabeth, your letter from the 8th arrived my morning. I have read it four times, front to back.
01:05:15Today I write to tell you I am coming home. I find I have a great deal to tell our
01:05:19child, and even more to tell you.
01:05:22Did you hear that, Edward? Our baby's ready to meet you.
01:05:28My lady, there are two gentlemen at the door. Officers, I believe. They are carrying a sealed summon.
01:05:42Lady Winverd, we are here to deliver a summons from His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent.
01:05:46Your presence is urgently required in London, and the matter is one of considerable importance.
01:05:54Lady Winverd, may I have the night to prepare?
01:05:55Lady Winverd, I am afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady. The carriage is prepared.
01:06:03Lady Winverd, very well. Allow me five minutes to gather my things.
01:06:17Lady Winverd, my lady, the seal on this carriage. I need time to verify it.
01:06:25Lady Winverd, I am sure you don't want to anger the Prince Regent.
01:06:40Lady Winverd, that sound. This isn't the road to London, it's the Cliff Road.
01:06:46Lady Winverd, stop this carriage! Stop the carriage! Immediately!
01:06:53Lady Winverd, stop the carriage! Immediately!
01:06:57Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:06:58Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:07Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:09Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:10Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:10Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:12Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:13Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:14Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:17Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:18Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:21Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:24Lady Winverd, stop the carriage!
01:07:33Edward!
01:07:34Take my hand!
01:07:45Edward!
01:07:46Yes?
01:07:47What is it?
01:07:48I think...
01:07:48I think the child is coming.
01:07:51No!
01:07:54No!
01:07:55No!
01:07:56No!
01:07:58No!
01:08:09My lord, this lodge is currently occupied by his royal highness.
01:08:13Move.
01:08:36Your first child?
01:08:37Yes.
01:08:38I have been informed about the incident on the cliff road, the carriage, the summons.
01:08:41Who was it?
01:08:42A widow, recently returned from London.
01:08:45She forged the seal.
01:08:46She also set fire to the east ring of my home in October.
01:08:50The Dowager Gredness?
01:08:51Yes, your highness.
01:08:52I assure you that this matter will be investigated fully.
01:08:55She will bring no more trouble your household.
01:08:57Thank you, your highness.
01:08:59And for this.
01:09:00For allowing us in.
01:09:02Don't thank me for that.
01:09:02Thank my wife.
01:09:04She heard the commotion at the gate and gave the order before I could even open my mouth.
01:09:07She sounds like a formidable woman.
01:09:12That's one way to put it.
01:09:21My lord.
01:09:22Lady Windery is well.
01:09:24You have a son.
01:09:36You have a son.
01:09:38You have a son.
01:09:39You have a son.
01:09:41Why am I there?
01:09:44You have a son.
01:09:53The princess regent
01:10:16How does a woman who ran away from her own wedding become princess regent
01:10:24It all started with a marsh. I beg your pardon on that day. I fled the carriage
01:10:30Cut across the north field. I did not know there was a marsh
01:10:35Before I knew it I was up to my waist and then there was a great deal of noise coming
01:10:40from the trees
01:10:42Dogs a horse and a man who looked rather displeased to find a woman waiting about in his marsh. He
01:10:47pulled me out himself
01:10:48Gave me his coat before asking my name. He was
01:10:52Unexpectedly decent and then you told him your name. I presume. Yes, then I told him my name
01:10:57And he told me his
01:10:59And neither of us went home for a very long time. Are you happy Jane?
01:11:09Are you more than I had ever thought was possible
01:11:19The prince regent will present honours tonight. Did any of you receive warning of this none at all which means
01:11:25he wants it to be a surprise
01:11:26But who shall it be?
01:11:28Cavendish? Ashmore?
01:11:30I heard it's not even a man
01:11:32Apparently the honor is to be a stowed upon a couple
01:11:36A husband
01:11:38And wife
01:11:40Good heavens
01:11:41A joint honor and what title shall be awarded to them
01:11:46Are you nervous? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't
01:11:50Do you remember when we first met?
01:11:54Yes
01:11:55When those doors open you were the spitting image of a well-behaved young lady
01:11:59And you look like an unbearably serious old man who had never known true happiness
01:12:03Well, things are different now this time when these doors open. I'll be standing right beside you
01:12:08Shall we?
01:12:15Is that lady Wyndham?
01:12:17Is that lady Wyndham?
01:12:18How could lord Wyndham have
01:12:20You look magnificent
01:12:22I know
01:12:23And I feel magnificent
01:12:28With the honor of the crowd and in recognition of their remarkable courage and loyalty
01:12:33I hereby elevate Lord Edward Wyndham and Lady Elizabeth Wyndham to the rank of Marcus and Marchiance of Thornfield
