00:40Still here, Lydia.
00:42I thought I made myself clear.
00:44It's you or your father's farm.
00:50Seems like a big sacrifice just to stay in Barclay Square.
01:04Nanny, where's Lanny?
01:07Lydia?
01:08Morning.
01:09Is it?
01:11I don't need to part my head off.
01:13Lydia?
01:14Have you been crying?
01:15It's all going so well.
01:17Job in London, nice clean uniform, good wage.
01:20We haven't dismissed you.
01:21Maybe I'm not cut out to be a nanny.
01:24Nanny, this is about a certain young gentleman, isn't it?
01:26I'm going to hand him my notice.
01:29I've decided.
01:31I've got to go.
01:32You're a very good nanny.
01:34Ask Nanny Collins.
01:35She thinks the world of you.
01:38She'll be on your side.
01:39You'll see.
01:40You want to keep your position, don't you?
01:42Of course I do.
01:43Well, then.
01:44What have you got to lose?
01:46Nanny!
01:46It's nine o'clock!
01:51All right.
01:53I'll give it a try.
02:04Good morning, nanny.
02:06Good morning.
02:27There's no point hanging out the wash-in.
02:29They'll be here before you know it.
02:33The new sewage pipes.
02:36You never read your notice, did you?
02:42Good morning, Ivy.
02:48Good morning.
02:52How's the boy?
02:54He keeps being sick.
02:57Still on the state of our death, is he?
02:59Thinks he's going straight to hell.
03:02And nanny?
03:05What does she think?
03:08She thinks that sometimes people do wrong things.
03:13But they don't mean to.
03:17I've got to go.
03:19The Lord and Master calls.
03:30About time!
03:32Sorry, sir.
03:33Get held up in the kitchen.
03:35The housemaid found this.
03:38In the hall.
03:40In the hall?
03:41On the floor.
03:43Good God.
03:45Lucky she's far away with a mop, sir.
03:47Yes.
03:47Thank you, Edward.
03:49Looks valuable, sir.
03:50Yes.
03:51It is.
03:53Not my house.
03:55I didn't get no notice.
03:56No notice.
03:57No work.
03:57You go and dig somewhere else.
03:58You'll have to take it up with a town hall, love.
04:00This is private.
04:01This is private property.
04:03She's got all her washing out.
04:04She'll have to take it in, then, won't she?
04:06All right, boys.
04:07Well, clean it off.
04:08Clean it off now.
04:09Why don't you go out, Mrs B?
04:12Come back when it's all over.
04:14It's not so upsetting if you don't actually see them doing it.
04:17What about that friend of yours?
04:20What friend of mine?
04:22The one with the baby.
04:25You go up Barclay Square for a couple of hours.
04:28It'll be done by then.
04:30Tom, it was an accident.
04:33Tom hates me.
04:35Nonsense.
04:36I shot him.
04:38And you're sorry, aren't you?
04:40Look, he's your father.
04:43He'll forgive you.
04:44He loves you.
04:52Five minutes and it will all be over.
04:54You're not worrying.
04:55You're nothing.
05:02Please give this to Beatrice, would you, Edward?
05:07Nanny and Master Tom are waiting outside to speak to you, sir.
05:10No, it's not convenient.
05:12Tell Nanny I will decide when to speak to Tom.
05:23Really, Arnold, you're being a little overdramatic.
05:25I dropped it.
05:26It's been found.
05:27Is there really any cause for an inquisition?
05:28You lose a precious bracelet given to mark our anniversary
05:31and you don't even notice it's missing.
05:33I refuse to listen to this.
05:35As if the last of you would have been difficult enough!
05:38Mama!
05:39Not now, Tom!
05:42Hey.
05:43I know.
05:44Shall we go and fetch Harriet together?
05:46No.
05:47You could come with me and help me polish me best boots.
05:51Tom!
05:52Yeah, probably best leave Mama's arm for a while.
05:56I'll have to.
05:57I've got to go and fetch Harriet.
05:59What, do you want me to go after him?
06:01No.
06:02You're right.
06:04Let him be.
06:06You're going to let me be as well?
06:08Need.
06:10I can't talk now.
06:11Harriet's waiting.
06:12I can meet you.
06:15Please.
06:19I'll be in the square with Harriet.
06:22By the flower garden.
06:41I'll be in the square with Harriet.
06:42I'll be in the square with Harriet.
06:44I'll be in the square with Harriet.
06:45Hello.
06:48Have you got a moment?
06:52But really, I've got to take Harriet back for her lunch.
06:56I'm not ashamed, Maddy.
06:58I love my baby.
07:03I haven't set eyes on this book for years.
07:05Lanny Collins, can I ask you something?
07:07Mm-hm.
07:09If he was young, and if a young man...
07:11If a certain young man...
07:14Spit it out, Lydia.
07:16If I was to tell you that someone...
07:19that he was, like, um...
07:21making advances...
07:24It's Lord Hugh.
07:27Master Hugh?
07:31Oh, I don't think so.
07:35You're misunderstanding his lordship's position, Lydia.
07:39Master Hugh is a friendly young man. He always was.
07:42I'm not talking about friendly.
07:45Oh, you young girls!
07:46You tell each other too many silly stories!
07:51I loved William, Maddy.
07:54And he loved me.
07:56Yeah.
07:59But I still don't see how you could...
08:03You know.
08:09When you feel like that.
08:12When...
08:13You can't breathe for thinking of someone.
08:17When they touch you and you go weak.
08:19You can't resist.
08:20You don't want to resist.
08:24No.
08:24The rest of the world just fades away.
08:28All sorts of...
08:29decency and proper behaviour.
08:32The right and Christian thing to do.
08:35It all just goes.
08:38I wanted to save myself for my wedding night.
08:42Just like you.
08:43Just like every girl.
08:46But there wasn't going to be a wedding night, was there?
08:49No.
08:52Not you and a Viscount.
08:54Not a Viscount to me.
08:58Just the man I wanted to be with.
09:01The father of my baby.
09:03I'm so sorry, Anna.
09:06It must have been so awful for you, when he...
09:10You know.
09:12And when he died.
09:17I just want you to understand.
09:24When, um...
09:25When you love someone.
09:27And you have their child.
09:30And that child is in danger.
09:33Nothing else matters.
09:35All that matters is protecting your baby.
09:41How can I make you understand?
09:47You don't have to.
09:51You're my friend and you did what you thought was best.
09:55And I should stand by you.
10:16Ned's here to fetch us.
10:18I'll go and get my coats.
10:27Handsome chap.
10:29Not surprising he's so popular with the ladies.
10:33Don't think he's like that.
10:34Oh, I saw him out canoodling him the other day.
10:37He doesn't canoodle.
10:39Ask him about the girl hanging off his arm a few days ago now.
10:43Oh, they were canoodling all right.
10:45In Mount Street.
10:46Broad daylight.
10:50Ned, I knew it was you.
10:51Ah-ha!
10:53Me favourite lady.
10:54It's my lucky day.
10:56I'm too young to be your favourite lady.
10:58And anyway, my mother says I've got to marry a prince.
11:02Or a lord at the very least.
11:05You in a rush?
11:06Come on, Harriet.
11:07It's lunchtime.
11:08Mattie!
11:10Run on to the next gate.
11:16So, it's me today, is it?
11:19It's you every day.
11:20That's not what I hear.
11:22A girl hanging off your arm in Mount Street.
11:25That's what I hear.
11:27You gonna deny it?
11:29I can't deny it.
11:31But I want to explain it.
11:32No.
11:34It'll be like when you explain the other thing.
11:37What you did.
11:39I don't want to hear anything else.
11:41Because you make me believe you.
11:44And then I won't know where I am.
11:57Come in.
12:05Ah, Lydia.
12:06Is this about the letter?
12:08So?
12:09The letter home.
12:09I said I'd help you, didn't I?
12:11The thing is...
12:12Oh, well, now's as good a time as any.
12:14The thing is...
12:15I want to hand in my notice.
12:21So there's, um...
12:22No point in a letter, is there?
12:25I see.
12:28Is it because you're homesick?
12:30No, Mr. Fowler, it's something else entirely.
12:35I'll be going in the morning if that's agreeable.
12:37Lydia!
12:38I'd best be getting back.
12:41Good morning, sir.
12:45Yeah.
12:46I'll be going too quickly.
12:48It looks like space.
12:48Once the pipe's in, you won't see no difference.
12:51A little batch of concrete, a manhole covering the corner.
12:54It'll be like it never happened.
12:55Yeah, well, there wasn't nothing wrong with them old pipes.
12:58Oi, Bill!
13:12What is it?
13:16Look, Nanny, Cousin Isabel!
13:19You've not been to visit us for a long time, has she, Nanny?
13:23I'm sorry, Bertie, I've neglected you.
13:26I'm sure Miss Isabel's been very busy, Bertie.
13:28Indeed, all these end-of-season parties and entertaining.
13:33Captain Mason is coming for tea.
13:36Isabel, will you play with me?
13:39Since Nanny seems to prefer to gaze at baby Charles
13:43instead of offering me helpful advice,
13:45I think I might.
13:51What kind of advice are you after, Miss Isabel?
13:54Well, for once, in this desperately dull season,
13:57tea could be exciting.
13:59Or it would be, were it not for an elderly person
14:02with a determination to do things by the book.
14:04Ah.
14:05Oh, you can't help me, Hannah, I suppose.
14:09A drop of arsenic in someone's teacup.
14:12Rat poison in the scones.
14:14If this were a novel, there'd be a brilliant solution.
14:18Well, I was thinking of something a little less drastic.
14:22Oh?
14:22I was thinking of a certain person's taste
14:25for an aperitif before dining.
14:26I'm not sure I catch your drink.
14:29Madeira?
14:30It's an island near Spain.
14:32I missed her and I said it was a drink.
14:35Precisely.
14:36A rather powerful drink if partaken enthusiastically,
14:39or so I'm told.
14:40Oh, I'm told.
14:44Well?
14:45I want to offer my sincerest apologies, Father,
14:48about the incident in Devon.
14:51Come.
14:52The shooting party business.
14:54You were quite right.
14:55I had no business changing the St. Jim boys' cartridges.
14:58A most stupid and thoughtless act.
15:01Thank you, Fowley, if you move those papers on the table there.
15:04I behaved like a complete ass.
15:06We've put the matter behind us now, Hugh.
15:08We'll say no more about it.
15:13Um, anything I can help you with?
15:15Oh, just the usual problems with the estate.
15:18Trying to close the gap between income and expenditure.
15:21Ah, well, I've been having some thoughts about that.
15:23May I?
15:24By all means.
15:26Fowler, you'd better bring another cup.
15:28Yes, my lord.
15:29What you told me, you had no need to learn
15:31the dull details of estate management.
15:33It seems I've been wrong on more than one count
15:36recently.
15:38I've been looking at the figures for the Western Farm.
15:40Have you?
15:41Remember all that grain we lost last year?
15:44Well, it struck me that if you closed that particular farm down
15:47and converted the buildings into barns,
15:49you could use them to store the grain from the Westfields.
15:53And what do you propose we do with the Western family?
15:56With respect, father.
15:57That's their affair, not ours.
16:00And in that precious moment,
16:03Florence knew her life would be changed forever.
16:08You and Nanny getting on all right?
16:10So, so.
16:11What about Ned?
16:13And you, Ned?
16:14Ned and Nanny.
16:15They're getting on all right.
16:18Where are you going?
16:19Out.
16:20His nibs is lying down, resting his wound,
16:22so he don't want to be disturbed.
16:24So what's keeping me here?
16:26He held her in his arms and murmured to her that he had been desperate for this moment.
16:34Excuse me, Cook.
16:36Pringle, where's Tom?
16:37I don't know.
16:38Not in the nursery.
16:39I know that.
16:40What, you haven't seen him at all?
16:42He's in a sulk, shall we?
16:44He's a boy, isn't he?
16:46Always in a sulk about something.
16:48I should know.
16:50Well, er, if he comes down to the kitchen, please let me know, Mrs McCluskey.
16:56And from that moment,
16:59he would never leave her side.
17:03Nanny.
17:05I wanted to talk to you.
17:07Get things straight about Ned.
17:09You needn't worry.
17:11Tom's gone missing.
17:13And pretty soon I'm going to have to tell his mother and father.
17:15You think I'm bothered about Ned?
17:17He's not a murderer.
17:19Listen.
17:20Who he really is.
17:21What he did.
17:21Why.
17:23I just don't care.
17:24All right?
17:35Nanny, can you help?
17:36My aunt has rather a severe headache.
17:39I confess, I do feel somewhat giddy.
17:43Perhaps the Madeira was off.
17:45Oh, could you just take her other arm?
17:48I must have sat too close to the fire.
17:51You really must lie down, aunt.
17:53It's the best thing for a headache.
17:55I'll call for some powders.
17:58But Captain Mason is coming to tea.
18:00A quiet doze and a darkened room and you'll feel a hundred times better.
18:04Isn't that right, Nanny?
18:08The boy is absolutely set on humiliatingly yet again.
18:12He was anxious about facing you, sir.
18:14Running away never solved anything.
18:15This really is too tiresome.
18:17I'll take a turn around the square, see if he's outside.
18:20The boy is out of control, there's no question.
18:23Bring him to me the moment you find him.
18:29The boy is out of control, he's out of control, he's out of control, he's out of control.
19:01There you are, you see that boy on your travels?
19:04Boy?
19:04In God's name, she thinks he'd be hiding in the cold store is beyond me.
19:08What's going on?
19:09Tom.
19:10I can't find him.
19:13Good riddance.
19:14Search the whole of the nursery floor again.
19:16His blanket's missing.
19:18That's it, then.
19:19He's run away.
19:21Time to call in the police.
19:22We don't want to do that.
19:24Why not?
19:24Have you just been kidnapped?
19:25It's all my fault.
19:27I told him his father would forgive him.
19:29I told him it would all be all right.
19:30Uh, I think I know where he might be.
19:33Where?
19:35I'll show you.
19:37Just tell me.
19:39Look, do you want to find him or not?
19:53Captain Mason.
19:56Mrs. St. John.
19:57What a pleasant surprise.
19:59You haven't seen my son, have you?
20:01He seems to have gone wandering off.
20:03What are you doing here?
20:05I'm visiting someone.
20:07I see.
20:10Victoria.
20:10Might I ask who you're visiting?
20:16Mrs. Saunders.
20:18You know her?
20:19Yes, Captain Mason.
20:20Of course I do.
20:22And I know her niece, Miss Hutchinson.
20:29Look, Victoria, you're married to St. John.
20:32And me?
20:33Well, I shall have to find a wife someday, shan't I?
20:39A wife?
20:41In name only, my sweetheart.
20:45What we had.
20:48Nothing can replace that.
20:49Nothing.
20:51I must go.
20:52Charmed to have met you, Mrs. St. John.
20:56You're looking so beautiful.
20:59I shall keep an eye out for young Tom.
21:01Have a pleasant afternoon.
21:14Are you sure about this?
21:17Well, there's nowhere left to look, is there?
21:20Besides, he's been up here before.
21:30Watch your head.
21:42Well, I don't see him.
21:47This way.
21:58Tom!
22:01Tom!
22:04Here he is.
22:20Captain Mason, how very punctual you are.
22:23The anticipation of a pleasant afternoon, Miss Hutchinson.
22:27Not quite as pleasant as you might have hoped.
22:29I'm afraid my great-aunt will be unable to join us for tea.
22:33I'm very sorry to hear it.
22:34She suffers from headaches.
22:36In which case, it's doubly good of you to entertain me alone.
22:41Most trying for you.
22:44Do sit down, Captain Mason.
22:49I wonder, given the unusual nature of our meeting,
22:53if we might not be a little courageous this afternoon
22:55and dispense with certain formalities, Miss Hutchinson?
23:00How very daring, Captain Mason.
23:05What exactly did you have in mind?
23:07Well, I thought we might start by you calling me Harry.
23:15This is silly.
23:16You can't stay up here all day.
23:18Why don't we all go back downstairs?
23:20Cook's made gingerbread men.
23:22Come on, Tom.
23:23The longer you stay up here, the more...
23:28I was scared of me old man, too.
23:31He was, uh...
23:32a bit quick with the belt.
23:34He beat you?
23:36One time he hit me so hard I'd pass out clean.
23:39Cracked me head in the kitchen table.
23:43The thing is,
23:45I always knew when the beating was coming.
23:48Because I knew the exact moment
23:49he was going to undo that buckle
23:52and take a swing.
23:55What about you?
23:58Me?
24:00How do you know when
24:01your dad's going to take the stretcher?
24:04He doesn't.
24:06Doesn't?
24:07What?
24:08Never.
24:11So,
24:13what's going to happen to you down there?
24:15When you face your father,
24:16what's he going to do?
24:18Tell me off.
24:20Oh.
24:21Shout out to me.
24:23And that's it.
24:25Is that right, Annie?
24:27Yeah.
24:28Of course it is.
24:31When he's telling you off.
24:33Just remember me and that belt, eh?
24:36You know what they say.
24:38Sticks and stones.
24:41Come on.
24:48It was very nice of you to invite me, Mr. Powler.
24:51The cake's delicious.
24:53Please pass on my compliments to cook.
24:55And how is young Master Ivo?
25:00The milk teeth are coming through.
25:03The milk teeth are coming through.
25:04But I'm not too troubled.
25:06Lydia's dealing with the knights.
25:07It's a pity, then, that she's decided to leave.
25:10Oh, beg your pardon?
25:12She came to me this morning.
25:14Said she's unhappy.
25:16I thought you might be able to shed some light.
25:20If you're meaning that I'm the culprit, Mr. Fowler,
25:23I can safely say that Lydia and I have ironed out our differences.
25:27A young man, then.
25:29Bearing in mind the conversation we had some weeks ago, Mrs. Collins.
25:36Master Hugh probably smiled at her once too often.
25:39You know what these young girls are like.
25:45She did say something to me this morning.
25:48I told her not to be so silly.
25:50You think she's making it up?
25:54I suppose I could have a word with Master Hugh.
25:58Tell him she's an impressionable young girl
26:00and he shouldn't encourage her.
26:02What if I told you
26:03that Master Hugh is taking a less than healthy interest
26:06in the entire Weston family?
26:08Above and beyond the duties of Lord of the Manor.
26:13Less than healthy?
26:15An interest that involves evicting Lydia's family
26:18from their farm in Devon.
26:21Would you still think this was all in her imagination?
26:35I would think the way one pours tea says so much about a person.
26:38In what way?
26:39Well, if I were to tell you before you'd finished the procedure,
26:42you might adjust your actions accordingly.
26:45How utterly terrifying.
26:47So here I am, innocently pouring tea,
26:49and you're assessing my character
26:51on the basis of the way I hold the teapot.
26:53Here, take this before I reveal something alarming.
27:00There is nothing you could reveal to me
27:03that would not confirm my opinion of you
27:05as the most charming girl I've ever met.
27:07Captain Mason.
27:10Harry.
27:11The most charming,
27:12the most beautiful,
27:15the most delightful...
27:17Yes?
27:19Let's not waste this opportunity with misunderstanding.
27:22This ring was my mother's.
27:24I've carried it with me since her death.
27:27Now I'd like you to do me the very great honour
27:30of wearing it.
27:32Harry.
27:33And to do me the even greater honour
27:37of consenting to be my wife.
27:47Isabel?
27:51It fits.
27:59Right.
28:00Stand up straight.
28:01Look him right in the eye
28:02and say sorry
28:03like a gentleman.
28:05And he'll be angry
28:07and that's all.
28:08That's all.
28:10I promise.
28:14Carl?
28:16Where is he now?
28:18Seeing his father.
28:20Thank God he wasn't kidnapped.
28:22Would have had police all over the house.
28:24Last thing we know he did.
28:28Yes, Pringle?
28:29I've come to fetch
28:31the gingerbread men
28:32for young madam.
28:39So,
28:41do you have any explanation
28:43for your behaviour today?
28:46Or for my injury?
28:51Am I to hear
28:52any kind of apology?
28:55I'm very sorry, father.
28:58I accept your apology.
29:01It only remains for me to tell you
29:03to pack your bags at once.
29:05You're going to school, Tom.
29:06To the prep school at Tadmere Hall.
29:10Your father's already spoken to his old housemaster
29:12and he's agreed to take you a year early.
29:15Since nanny seems unable to control you,
29:18we feel you need the discipline of school.
29:19the company of other boys
29:21to teach you to be honourable.
29:24You'll catch the train first thing tomorrow
29:26and use the journey
29:27to reflect on the proper way to behave.
29:32Very well, Tom.
29:38You may go.
29:46You said it would be all right.
29:51So, uh,
29:52Lydia is homesick.
29:54Well, unhappy.
29:55Call it what you will.
29:57She's very low, sir.
29:59She handed in her notice this morning.
30:02I see.
30:03And you think I may be able to help?
30:05Well, forgive me,
30:05but I rather feel
30:06this is the province of my wife.
30:08I'm afraid
30:09it's connected with
30:11another person.
30:13Another person?
30:15Yes.
30:16A relative?
30:18No, sir.
30:19Good Lord, is this a guessing game?
30:21We'll be here all afternoon at this rate.
30:23The person involved
30:25is connected with you, Master George.
30:28Connect...
30:31Connected?
30:32Yes, sir.
30:34Now, let us be completely clear about this.
30:41It's Master Hugh, sir.
30:44Yes, I see.
30:47Well, you haven't drunk your tea, Nanny.
30:51The girl has promise.
30:54And baby Ivov
30:56has taken to her very keenly.
30:58Leave it with me, Nanny.
31:00Consider the matter dealt with.
31:03I'm so disappointed in him, sir.
31:06Of course you are, Nanny.
31:14Of course you are.
31:26Thank you, Edward.
31:31Anything interesting?
31:32It's a dinner invitation
31:33from the Mansfields.
31:36We won't go, of course.
31:37I'll write a note.
31:38Well, I'm sure I'll be able to map.
31:39I'm sorry, Arnold,
31:40but I have no intention
31:41of going to the Mansfields.
31:43I can't help thinking
31:45it might be time
31:45to get out and about.
31:47See people.
31:48Get back into the swing of things.
31:50Swing of things.
31:55Victoria,
31:56I know we've dealt with Tom,
31:58but I've been thinking.
32:00You think I was too harsh?
32:03Perhaps we should have
32:04another word with him.
32:05Go up after tea.
32:08Victoria!
32:13Harry, you should be ashamed.
32:16Ashamed?
32:17Kissing my own fiancée?
32:19Why?
32:20I want to shout it
32:21from the rooftops.
32:23All in good time.
32:46Mrs. B.
32:47All these stairs.
32:49And with my knees.
32:51What are you doing here?
32:53You've got to peg your pegs now.
32:55Get out this place.
32:56Why?
32:57They know about the baby.
33:01Billy's still got the dimple
33:03every time he smiles.
33:05What do you want, Flory?
33:06Shall I do that bit
33:07of washing, Nanny?
33:08Later.
33:09As you can see,
33:09I have a visitor,
33:10so please,
33:11go downstairs for half an hour.
33:13Yes, miss.
33:14His name's Charlie.
33:21Very smart.
33:24You've got your own servant now.
33:26She's not my servant, Mrs. B.
33:29Can I hold you?
33:31Just for a moment.
33:39How do they know?
33:40You said you'd take care of it.
33:42A bit close to home, is all.
33:45You said it'd be all right.
33:47Stupid.
33:52I buried the baby in my backyard.
33:55They're digging there now.
34:04Father.
34:07Fowler said you wanted to see me.
34:09What in God's name have you been up to
34:10with the Western Girl, Hugh?
34:12The Western Girl?
34:13Lydia.
34:14Absolutely nothing.
34:15Why on earth do you ask?
34:16Hugh.
34:17This is a time for honesty.
34:20Father, I swear to you.
34:21No, above all, Hugh, do not swear.
34:23Now, I have had a report
34:24from a completely reliable source
34:27that something is amiss.
34:29That the problem resides in the nursery,
34:31and that the cause of the problem is you.
34:33I've never heard such...
34:34As far as I'm concerned,
34:35these facts are not up for debate.
34:38What I want from you,
34:39for once in your life,
34:41is an honest admission of guilt.
34:46Well, I'm waiting, Hugh.
34:48Most certainly not.
34:49How dare you take the word
34:50of some skivvy
34:51against that of your own son?
34:53No, this time you will not hide
34:54behind your injured pride.
34:56Let go of my arm
34:57to feign an interest
34:58in Causton affairs,
35:00to attempt to evict
35:01one of my tenants,
35:02because his daughter
35:03refuses to succumb
35:04to your attention.
35:05I said let go.
35:06I am ashamed.
35:07Deeply ashamed.
35:08You were not brought up
35:09to be a coward
35:10and a seducer.
35:12Now, listen to me.
35:13No, you listen to me.
35:14I want you to promise me
35:15that you will never set
35:16one foot in the nursery again.
35:18I want your word
35:19as a gentleman,
35:21if you are a gentleman,
35:24that I shall never have
35:25to speak of this matter again.
35:26Father.
35:26Your word, Hugh.
35:28You take the word
35:29of some disturbed
35:30and pathetic creature.
35:32This is your last chance.
35:35Very well.
35:36Say it.
35:37Father.
35:38Say it.
35:40Very well.
35:41I give you my word.
35:47You may go.
35:57I can't leave.
35:58You do have a choice.
36:00That woman next door,
36:01she knows all about you.
36:03Well, I can't leave
36:03without Billy.
36:04So you take him.
36:06All right.
36:07No fancy clothes like here.
36:10But he'll be happy.
36:11He'll be with his mother.
36:13The backyard, Mrs. Branowski.
36:17I thought we were safe.
36:22But if I run away with Billy,
36:26I think I'll kidnap you there, baby.
36:31So I'll have to go back then.
36:35Make it all right.
36:37It won't be so difficult
36:39to have done this.
36:43I'll go with you.
36:44No, no.
36:45He wants his mother.
36:49You'll be all right.
36:55I'll believe you have a baby to think of.
36:58You don't think I'll leave you
36:59to face this alone?
37:00No, I can say shh.
37:02That sounds like quality.
37:04Do you have any medicine?
37:05Oh, yeah, in the bedroom.
37:06Ah!
37:34I
37:34Surprised you did I
37:36It's evidently a day for surprises
37:38Sir
37:38I was rather surprised just now when I was reprimanded for bothering you
37:43I didn't think of you as a tattletale
37:45Sir, I'll be on my way tomorrow
37:47If you could see your way to leaving my family alone
37:49After the trouble you've got me into
37:52Why should I perform any favours for you?
37:55Perhaps you'd rather perform a favour for me
37:59I'd be obliged if you left Lydia alone to do her work
38:03She has neither the time nor the inclination to chat to every Tom, Dick or Harry who wants to bother
38:09her
38:09You'll make myself clear
38:13Perfectly
38:15You always did understand me, Master Hugh
38:19Well, we'll say goodnight then
38:22Must get on
38:28Surprised it to say there are people here who think more of you than you'd credit
38:32So we'll have no more talk of leaving
38:33Nanny Collins
38:35All those curtains closed
38:36Go round and do them all again properly this time
38:43Then you have to go to school anyway, Tom
38:46Might as well be now as in a year
38:49And you need some discipline
38:52Today's performance only underlined that fact
38:58Regard school as an adventure
39:01And you'll survive it well enough
39:03A couple of terms under Mr. Hedge
39:05And you'll have forgotten all about home
39:07It certainly worked for me
39:10Old Hedgehog will see you through
39:15School's not so bad
39:18A bit lonely at first
39:23Now, will you shake hands with your father?
39:33It's not so bad, old child
39:36It's not so bad
39:42October the 12th, 1902
39:45Dear Mother and Father
39:47I am writing to you with the help of Mr. Fowler, the butler
39:50To let you know that I am keeping very well
39:53The weather has been fine for the time of year
39:56And Autumn is not yet upon us
40:01Autumn is not yet upon us
40:06Tomorrow
40:07I shall walk in the park with baby Ivo
40:15Victoria
40:17Is something wrong?
40:19No, nothing's wrong
40:21I simply wanted some help with this
40:24I don't see your help
40:25I just wanted you to make sure that the clasp was secure
40:37It seems safe enough to me
40:42Good
40:44I should hate to lose it again
40:52Shall we go into dinner?
41:09I thought I might find you up here
41:11Careful!
41:12Just go away, will ya?
41:17Looks nice like that
41:19Looks a mess
41:23Everything's a mess
41:26Tom's being sent away and it's my fault
41:28Matty
41:29I came up here for a bit of peace and quiet
41:33You go over the edge
41:34And this eternal peace you'll get
41:36And if that happened
41:38I don't know what I'd do
41:40But what do I say if Miss Isabel comes in?
41:43Oh, I don't know anything
41:44Look, I've gotta go, I'll be too late
41:50Hannah?
41:55I was in no danger of falling
41:59That's what I always said, see?
42:01No danger of falling, me
42:04Because I thought it would hurt
42:05Will you stop it?
42:06Go away
42:08No
42:11Don't do this to me, Ned, please
42:13What?
42:15Catch you unawares?
42:17Look at you when you're not being nanny
42:20Well, you only show me what you want me to see
42:22So kindly allow me the same
42:25What's that supposed to mean?
42:27It's not difficult
42:29You show me the Ned you want me to see
42:32You're not what you seem, are you?
42:35Ned McCluskey
42:37I don't know who he is
42:38Do you think he's a killer?
42:44No
42:44What then?
42:45How should I know who you are?
42:47Since you never explain anything
42:50You may tell other women your secrets
42:51I haven't had that honour
42:53Ah, so that's what this is about
42:55Yes, that's what it's about
42:58Now do what you please
43:00But don't expect me to trust you ever again
43:03Tell you what
43:06I'll go on believing in you
43:07What?
43:10You don't have to return the favour
43:13Alright
43:13I took another woman out like I've done since I was 15
43:18You don't talk
43:20Not proper talking
43:22You have a drink
43:23A laugh
43:25Easy
43:26But suddenly everything you always had ain't good enough
43:29Cause you've seen something else
43:31And nothing can ever be the same again
43:37I love ya
43:39I love ya
43:41And that's scary, Matty
43:44It's a lot scarier than being seen when you're aired then
43:50Please come down from there
43:53You can do what you like now
43:54Go to the police
43:56I won't go to the police
43:57No?
43:59Why not?
44:00Please just come down from there
44:01Not until you tell me, why not?
44:08Because I love you
44:14Say it louder
44:17And smile when you say it
44:20Because I love you
44:22Alright?
44:26Come on
44:28Come and have a look
44:30You can see half way across London
44:36Don't worry, I'll hold ya
44:38Thank you
44:45I love you too
45:10Can't be
45:12Can't be
45:17Can't be
45:19I love you too
45:27Can't be
45:28Can't be
45:30Oh, there you are.
45:32Didn't you hear the bell? You're wanted upstairs.
45:35Miss Harriet was looking for you.
45:37I was just on my way.
46:02Here.
46:07Your trunk's packed.
46:11Did you want to take that book with you to read on the train?
46:17I'll miss you.
46:23Tom.
46:25I'm sorry if you think I'll let you down today.
46:34Do I get a kiss?
46:39I'll see you in the morning, then.
46:48Put this in the bed, shall I?
46:51She'll make the most of it.
46:52There's no warm sheets we would get.
46:54She didn't think of that.
46:56If you mean Nanny, I don't want a mention in this room.
47:00Quite right, too.
47:02You up here with your troubles and her down there.
47:04Her down there what?
47:05Never you mind.
47:12Neither do I.
47:14I know a few or two that might put a spanner in the works of her ladyship.
47:16What kind of thing?
47:19Never you mind.
47:22I like you, though.
47:23And Cook.
47:25And Ned.
47:27I know a few or two about him, I know.
47:30You mean...
47:31...about him hiding in the storeroom before he was our footman?
47:34He told me that was a secret.
47:36Hide?
47:37You won't tell anyone, will you?
47:38I promised on my honour.
47:41I won't tell you anything else.
47:43And if anyone asks,
47:45I'll say you made it up.
47:48All right, then.
47:51Not a word.
47:55Mrs. Warnofsky!
47:58Mrs. Warnofsky!
47:59Mrs. Warnofsky!
48:16Haven't been here.
