Becoming Lady Wyndham New πŸ”
Transcript
00:00:04Today is my sister's wedding day.
00:00:07Jane's marrying the Earl of Windhealth.
00:00:11Our debts will be cleared,
00:00:13father's honor restored.
00:00:35It's Elizabeth!
00:00:37This was just found in the bride's dressing room!
00:00:48Liz, please forgive me.
00:00:49I can't do this.
00:00:50I won't be traded off to some man.
00:00:53I'm so sorry it had to be you who found this.
00:00:55Don't come looking for me.
00:00:56Jane.
00:00:59Jane!
00:00:59Do you know that if you run away from your wedding
00:01:01with the Earl of Windeck,
00:01:02the Fenwick family will be ruined completely?
00:01:16The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family
00:01:18before Sir Reginald ruined it.
00:01:20Indeed.
00:01:21If not for some old favor the Fenwicks once did the late Earl,
00:01:23it's hard to imagine this match ever 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.
00:01:52There's no time.
00:01:53I don't know.
00:02:33That is not Jane Fenwick.
00:02:35That's the younger sister.
00:02:36The younger sister?
00:02:38But she's the illegitimate one, I should think.
00:02:40Good Lord, what an insult to the honour of the House of Wyndham.
00:02:47Why, Elizabeth?
00:02:49Why would you put her in Jane's place?
00:02:51Please, how could you replace my legitimate daughter and have Elizabeth marry the Earl instead?
00:02:56How dare you!
00:02:58Regina, please, not here.
00:03:00I will see you.
00:03:02Miss Fenwick.
00:03:04Yes, my lord.
00:03:05You are not Miss Jane Fenwick.
00:03:09Yes, my lord.
00:03:10I am her sister.
00:03:12I owe you an explanation and I fully intend to give you one.
00:03:17My lord, I know this isn't what you agreed to.
00:03:20I have no right to ask anything of you, but...
00:03:26Marry me.
00:03:27Please, I'm begging you.
00:03:35Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you for your attendance this morning.
00:03:40It is my honour to present to you, my bride.
00:03:57On the night of my sister's wedding, I became a countess.
00:04:15Where is Lord Edward?
00:04:16His lordship was called away to London on urgent business.
00:04:19You may move to Thormitt later today.
00:04:21Shh!
00:04:26He didn't even hear my explanation.
00:04:29He left without signing the marriage papers.
00:04:32Perhaps he never meant to sign them at all.
00:04:35Is this some kind of punishment?
00:04:38For taking my sister's place?
00:05:01She's up and by the way.
00:05:02She's up.
00:05:11None of us attended, but I've heard every detail.
00:05:15They say the sister ran off, and the younger one took her place.
00:05:19Showed up in riding clothes, no less.
00:05:21You do keep well informed, Dorothea.
00:05:23Tell me, was she truly in riding clothes?
00:05:26Mrs. Milsom's daughter was sitting in the front rows.
00:05:28She said when the cloak fell, the entire church went silent for a full five seconds.
00:05:32Five seconds?
00:05:33When was the last time you managed that?
00:05:35I've never had the pleasure of causing such a spectacle.
00:05:38Poor Earl.
00:05:39Poor?
00:05:39I don't think so.
00:05:41He doesn't do anything out of pity.
00:05:42He has his reasons.
00:05:44A piece of Fenwick land, an old debt, something of that sort.
00:05:47As for the girl, I'd wager she's some wild little country girl.
00:05:50Hard carely fit for society.
00:05:52Likely doesn't even know her manners.
00:05:59Who is that over there?
00:06:01A gardener, or one of the maids?
00:06:04Just look at the state of her.
00:06:06About that level, I'd say.
00:06:08Edward's new wife can't be much better.
00:06:11You?
00:06:11The one picking strawberries.
00:06:12Come here.
00:06:19Are you speaking to me?
00:06:21Of course.
00:06:22Who else could I be speaking to?
00:06:23Who?
00:06:25Who?
00:06:26Who?
00:06:27Who?
00:06:27Who?
00:06:27Who?
00:06:28Who?
00:06:29Who?
00:06:30Who?
00:06:30Who?
00:06:31Who?
00:06:34Power us some tea.
00:06:41My dear, do stay for a cup of tea before you go.
00:06:51Oh, how clumsy.
00:06:57Lady Winfend, your tea is ready.
00:06:59The housekeeper says there are new letters for your attention.
00:07:02If you would come with me.
00:07:10You're Edward's new wife?
00:07:21Lady Winfend, your tea is ready.
00:07:22My lady.
00:07:26That's my girl.
00:07:29My lord.
00:07:33Tell Lady Windward that I...
00:07:35Wait.
00:07:40I'll give this to Lady Windward.
00:07:43And...
00:07:44Yes, my lord.
00:07:54Please excuse me.
00:08:01You saw that, didn't you? The way she carried herself. Deliberate. Every bit of it, pretending to be a servant
00:08:06just to make fools of us.
00:08:07Yes. Very deliberate.
00:08:09Married in riding clothes. Picking strawberries herself. Hair in that state.
00:08:13What on earth has Edward brought home?
00:08:16What indeed.
00:08:18I am curious how you intend to finish that sentence, Dorothea.
00:08:21Who do you think you are?
00:08:22A country girl who stumbled into a title through a farcical wedding?
00:08:26What right do you have?
00:08:27Today you sit in my garden, at my table, drinking tea you brought yourself and you didn't so announce your
00:08:32arrival.
00:08:32If you know your cousin as you say you do, you'd know he dislikes being disturbed.
00:08:36Next time, send word ahead. I'll have tea prepared, properly hot, not scolding.
00:08:41My lady, the Earl will be arriving shortly. He asks that you come out to receive him.
00:08:48Is my cousin back? I haven't seen him in ages. I'll go greet him as well.
00:08:53Lady Dorothea, Lord Edward has made it clear that now that he is married, all visitors are to be received
00:09:00only with Lady Winewield's consent.
00:09:11Please lead the way.
00:09:13My apologies, my lady. His lordship has been called away again.
00:09:17He did, however, leave strict instructions that you are not to be disturbed. This was just delivered for you.
00:09:30Word has it his trip to London had less to do with business and more to do with rekindling an
00:09:33odd flame.
00:09:34Cecilia Marlott, his mother's goddaughter. They were raised together at Thornwood, apparently.
00:09:41What happened after?
00:09:44She married an old duke in Wales.
00:09:47Poor girl.
00:09:48You feel sorry for her? Her husband just died. She's inherited a fortune. Who knows? She might come back.
00:09:57You'd better secure Lord Edward's affections while you can.
00:10:00I have not seen him since our wedding.
00:10:02What? How could that possibly be?
00:10:05It was wrong of me to take my sister's place and marry him that day.
00:10:08I never thought beyond that.
00:10:11Oh, my dear.
00:10:12What a cruel twist of fate.
00:10:14You were meant to go to London to study, and now you're trapped in this cold, dreadful place.
00:10:20So his affections were already given elsewhere.
00:10:23And I've only trapped him here.
00:10:32After all, what is there between Lord Edward and me but a signature in the parish register?
00:10:36A tranquil life that suits me well enough.
00:10:41So cold.
00:10:47Elizabeth.
00:10:49Consider this my return for the insult. Enjoy finding your way across Thornwood with nothing on.
00:11:09Oh, no. Oh, no.
00:11:12Oh, no.
00:11:14Thank you so much.
00:11:14What if it's time to sano for?
00:11:16Hurry!
00:11:16Medεˆ†.
00:11:19A city of Justice, thank you all.

00:15:41does he not want me
00:15:42does he not want me
00:16:09Edward.
00:16:17This isn't helpful.
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.
00:18:16You know Lady Wyndham, I believe.
00:18:18Miss Fenwick.
00:18:21My apologies, Lady Winford.
00:18:23The title still takes one by surprise, I must admit.
00:18:25Good evening, Miss Fane.
00:18:28Mr. Bellamy.
00:18:29Rupert and I have some happy news.
00:18:31We're to be formally engaged at the McKeelmas Hall.
00:18:34Dorothea was gracious enough to accept me.
00:18:37Though, 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. Bellamy.
00:19:55I assume your fiancΓ© is inside?
00:19:57Ah, yes.
00:19:58I stepped out for some air.
00:20:00And 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.
00:20:07No need to hurry.
00:20:07It's a fine night.
00:20:08That's enough, Mr. Bellamy.
00:20:10Come now, Elizabeth.
00:20:11A woman as young as you, as lovely as you, deserves far more than a cold bed and a husband...
00:20:18That's enough!
00:20:20Mr. Bellamy.
00:20:21I mean it kindly.
00:20:24Hmph.
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. Bellamy.
00:21:05Leave these grounds at once.
00:21:09And who exactly is meant to make it?
00:21:21There 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 fiancΓ© at a gathering like this?
00:21:52That is not...
00:21:53I mean no disrespect.
00:21:54But I am a man of honour and I think it best to be plain.
00:21:57Good lord!
00:21:58Did she really try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancΓ©?
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, apologize to my fiancΓ©.
00:22:13At once.
00:22:15Miss Vane, you will address me correctly or 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.
00:23:04I seem to have arrived a moment too late.
00:23:07Good lord!
00:23:09Has Lord Wyndham 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 dishonored my wife hear me.
00:23:23Before this night is over, you will regret it.
00:23:26Yes, my lord!
00:23:27Edward!
00:23:28My lord!
00:23:30I 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, I've over fifty others just like you.
00:23:54You have endured enough.
00:24:03You have endured enough.
00:24:04Home awaits us.
00:24:09Edward, 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.
00:24:30We 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.
00:24:41You 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?
00:25:27Tonight?
00:25:28I thought I had rather expected.
00:25:29I seem to have expected it more than I realized.
00:25:31Yes.
00:25:32Shortly then.
00:25:48Of course.
00:25:49Of all nights, it would be this one.
00:26:00Come in.
00:26:04There's something I must tell you.
00:26:06It concerns a domestic matter.
00:26:11I 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 apologizing.
00:26:46Yes, very well.
00:26:50What is she doing?
00:27:00I'm sorry, Susan cantine.
00:27:10You're going beside me.
00:27:12I think there is more than your joy to Leo.
00:27:15What is he going for?
00:27:18Elizabeth.
00:27:30He's gone. Of course he's gone.
00:27:33I failed him last night.
00:27:36Come in!
00:27:37Come in!
00:28:00Is something wrong?
00:28:03No. No, nothing.
00:28:09I wasn't certain of your preference this morning.
00:28:11Mrs. Hilda suggested something warm.
00:28:13There's chocolate.
00:28:14If 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.
00:28:53My mother has expressed a wish to receive you.
00:28:57Yes.
00:28:58Yes.
00:28:59I should like it that very much.
00:29:03I should propose...
00:29:05Fridays, perhaps, for the fulfillment of our marital obligation.
00:29:14Yes.
00:29:15Friday would suit me perfectly well.
00:29:18I feel quite confident I shall be...
00:29:21equal to my obligations by next Friday.
00:29:24Oh, my goodness.
00:29:26I'm here.
00:29:38I'm here.
00:30:04Go on.
00:30:06Vale will see you in.
00:30:07I shall be long.
00:30:09Of course.
00:30:22Three.
00:30:50That's Edward's mother.
00:30:53She looks so young to find.
00:30:58Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion.
00:31:01I am...
00:31:11Lady Wyndon.
00:31:14I had wondered when we should meet.
00:31:17I am Cecilia.
00:31:19Lady Adelaine was called away unexpectedly.
00:31:22She asked me to receive you in her place.
00:31:25That's her.
00:31:27Cecilia Marlowe.
00:31:28Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:31The woman Edward wants like.
00:31:35Your grace, the 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.
00:31:48Yet 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.
00:32:13She carries herself as if she owns the place.
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!
00:32:29The new Lady Wyndham.
00:32:30And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:32I read.
00:32:33I write.
00:32:34I 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 offence, 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.
00:32:49Bring another gun.
00:32:53A gun for beginners.
00:32:57You know your way around guns?
00:33:00Elizabeth, 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.
00:33:55My 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 agreeable.
00:34:09It's Friday.
00:34:10So it is.
00:34:12I must admit.
00:34:14I 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.
00:34:46What.
00:34:48I 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.
00:35:06To begin with.
00:35:08I did not realize how warm his hands would feel.
00:35:20Breathe.
00:35:23You are going to suffocate yourself.
00:35:32Are you ready?
00:35:34I.
00:35:38I'll take that as a yes.
00:35:42Let's begin.

00:40:59she is the mistress of this house
00:41:00whom she encounters on the road
00:41:02with 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

00:41:16edgar lennoxon
00:41:20my lady
00:41:22his lordship has inquired as to whether you might be at leisure this afternoon

00:41:38of course my lady
00:41:47georgiana paid me a visit this morning

00:42:03our carriage came to grief in the mud
00:42:05he assisted with freeing the wheel
00:42:10georgiana is young
00:42:10and 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
00:42:22he's telling me he stands on my side
00:42:28thank you edward

00:42:30we're married you need not thank me
00:42:34edgar lennoxon spent six years in italy

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.
00:59:28You're pregnant.
00:59:30Oh, God bless you, my child.
00:59:36Mother.
00:59:38I want to take you to Thornwood.
00:59:43You'll come chase him after us.
00:59:44You know how he gets when he's angry.
00:59:49Then we sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:06Margaret!
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, what an honour.
01:00:49Though I must tell you, this is a family matter.
01:00:52It is for me as well.
01:00:54Lady 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.
01:01:28You have no right to...
01:01:28The Thornwood estate carries debts to four creditors in this council.
01:01:33Two of those creditors sold their notes last month.
01:01:36To me.
01:01:37The 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 Shrewsbury.
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.
01:02:01If 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.
01:02:46Is he...
01:02:47Is he a good man, your lord?
01:02:59He's the best man I've ever met, mother.
01:03:10He's the best man I've ever met, mother.
01:03:12Now let me tell you
01:03:15The way this is working
01:03:33How long will you be gone for?
01:03:34Four months, perhaps.
01:03:40I don't wish to go.
01:03:41I know.
01:03:42I know you don't.
01:03:44Elizabeth, 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.
01:04:18Every day.
01:04:35My lord,
01:04:36it is the 14th of March
01:04:38and your child has spent this morning
01:04:40using my ribs as a set of piano keys.
01:04:43Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy
01:04:45and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:48Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:50We both eagerly await your return.
01:05:00A letter from London, my lady.
01:05:02In his lordship's own hand.
01:05:07Elizabeth,
01:05:08your letter from the 8th arrived my morning.
01:05:11I have read it four times,
01:05:13front to back.
01:05:15Today I write to tell you I am coming home.
01:05:17I find I have a great deal to tell our child
01:05:20and even more to tell you.
01:05:22Did you hear that, Edward?
01:05:25Our baby's ready to meet you.
01:05:29My lady,
01:05:30there are two gentlemen at the door.
01:05:31Officers, I believe.
01:05:32They are carrying a sealed summon.
01:05:42Lady Winverde,
01:05:43we are here to deliver a summons
01:05:44from His Royal Highness,
01:05:45the Prince Regent.
01:05:46Your presence is urgently required in London
01:05:49and the matter is one of considerable importance.
01:05:54May I have the night to prepare?
01:05:55I'm afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady.
01:05:59The carriage is prepared.
01:06:03Very well.
01:06:05Allow me five minutes to gather my things.
01:06:17My lady,
01:06:18the seal on this carriage.
01:06:20I need time to verify it.
01:06:25Lady Wyndham,
01:06:26I'm sure you don't want to anger the Prince Regent.
01:06:40That sound.
01:06:42That sound.
01:06:42This isn't the road to London.
01:06:43It's the cliff road.
01:06:48Stop this carriage!
01:06:50Stop the carriage!
01:06:51Immediately!
01:07:04Elizabeth!
01:07:06Elizabeth!
01:07:09Elizabeth!
01:07:33Take my hand!
01:07:45Edward?
01:07:46Yes?
01:07:47What is it?
01:07:48I think...
01:07:49I think the child is coming.
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.
01:08:42Who was it?
01:08:42A widow.
01:08:43Recently returned from London.
01:08:45She forged the seal.
01:08:47She also set fire to the East Ring of my home in October.
01:08:50The Dowager Grednes?
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 to your household.
01:08:57Thank you, your highness.
01:08:59And for this, for 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.
01:09:20My lord, Lady Windry is well.
01:09:24You have a son.
01:09:36He has your eyes.
01:09:41Why am I there?
01:09:52Her Royal Highness, the Princess Regent.
01:10:03Jane.
01:10:17How does a woman who ran away from her own wedding become Princess Regent?
01:10:24It all started with a marsh.
01:10:26I beg your pardon?
01:10:27On that day, I fled the carriage.
01:10:30Cut across the north field.
01:10:32I did not know there was a marsh.
01:10:35Before I knew it, I was up to my waist.
01:10:38And then?
01:10:39There was a great deal of noise coming from the trees.
01:10:42Dogs, a horse, and a man who looked rather displeased to find a woman wading about in his marsh.
01:10:46He pulled me out himself.
01:10:48Gave me his coat before asking my name.
01:10:51He was unexpectedly decent.
01:10:53And then you told him your name, I presume?
01:10:55Yes.
01:10:55Then 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.
01:11:02Are you happy, Jane?
01:11:10More than I had ever thought was possible.
01:11:20The Prince Regent will present honors tonight.
01:11:22Did any of you receive warning of this?
01:11:24None at all.
01:11:24Which means he wants it to be a surprise.
01:11:27But who shall it be?
01:11:28Cavendish?
01:11:29Ashmore?
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 a wife.
01:11:40Good heavens!
01:11:41A joint honor?
01:11:43And what title shall be awarded to them?
01:11:46Are you nervous?
01:11:48I'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 opened, you were the spitting image of a well-behaved young lady.
01:11:59And you looked like an unbearably serious old man who had never known true happiness?
01:12:03Well, things are different now.
01:12:04This time when these doors open, I'll be standing right beside you.
01:12:09Shall we?
01:12:15Is that Lady Wyndham?
01:12:18How could Lord Wyndham have...
01:12:21You look magnificent.
01:12:23I know.
01:12:24And I feel magnificent.
01:12:28With the honor of the crowd,
01:12:30and in recognition of their remarkable courage and loyalty,
01:12:33I hereby elevate Lord Edward Wyndham
01:12:36and Lady Elizabeth Wyndham
01:12:37to the rank of Marcus and Marchiance of Thornfield.
01:12:43The King of Lunds,
01:12:48We will be getting the most memorable position,
01:12:49You are so proud of our people.
01:12:52We are so proud of our love for you.
01:12:57And also, you know, the only people who sing the mosthabitans of the world.
01:12:58With the amount of Australia that you've got to leave,
01:12:58we must not be a miracle and Emerald fight.
01:12:58And you all don't have to be the most brave.
