1
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,439
MARY: If London was to be
a new start for me,

2
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,080
I would push
all thoughts of poetry...

3
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,800
..and love aside.

4
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,159
Mother warned me of the dirt,
disease and despair

5
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:46,040
that could be found here.

6
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,119
She failed to mention
the breadth of humanity.

7
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,599
DOG BARKS

8
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,240
And the anonymity of the city
suited me well.

9
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,480
I had taken to walking
the city's beautiful parks.

10
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,520
It seemed that all life
was in London...

11
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:07,800
..and here,
I could be anything I wanted.

12
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,439
Surely, I would find something
I could succeed at

13
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,199
in this vast, inspiring city.

14
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,440
Hmm!

15
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,439
Now, where did I put it?
How should I know?

16
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,119
Aw, she breaks my heart a little.

17
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,519
She seems so awkward in herself.

18
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,759
I worry my sister's caused
some harm to poor Mary.

19
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,159
Oh, I wonder.

20
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,999
She is perhaps not
the most natural governess.

21
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,199
What else can she do with life -
be her mother's companion?

22
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,719
I thought Tom brought her
out of herself,

23
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,519
kind-hearted man that he is.

24
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,879
And she seemed to get on well
with Ann Baxter the other evening.

25
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,359
But she has so little confidence.

26
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,559
Yes.

27
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,690
It can't have been easy growing up
in the shadow of her sisters.

28
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,239
Found it! Ah! There it is!

29
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,119
Well, I'm happy she's with us.

30
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,480
She has an interesting
and enquiring mind.

31
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,680
Oh. Oh! Miss Bennet.

32
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,200
Mr Hayward.

33
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:13,879
How are you?

34
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,319
Eager to hear how you've been
getting on with the poetry.

35
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,679
Oh, well, er,
I'm not sure I have the mind

36
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:20,959
to appreciate it completely.

37
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,999
I keep hoping Mr Coleridge
will...will explain himself,

38
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,199
or that Mr Wordsworth w-will
say what he really means,

39
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,280
but they seem to enjoy
keeping their secrets. They...

40
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,879
Well, do not blame yourself.
I think...

41
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,710
I think some poets enjoy
being difficult to understand.

42
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,640
Miss Bennet, I was so sorry
to hear about your father.

43
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,759
Moving to the city
without your family,

44
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,519
you not having your mother
to confide in, or your sisters...

45
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,839
Oh, it's a relief to be without her.

46
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,850
In fact, it's something of a relief
to be without any of them.

47
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,280
I'm sorry you're not
feeling yourself.

48
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,679
I'm afraid I'm not.

49
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,520
I'm just not finding my place here
as easily as I thought.

50
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:17,959
I'm sorry, please excuse me.

51
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,279
Oh, Mary! Tom!
How lovely to see you!

52
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,159
Quietly, my dear,
you'll summon the children,

53
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,319
who I fear have begun
to associate Tom's name

54
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,519
with a worryingly large bag
of sugar plums.

55
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:29,679
BOTH CHUCKLE
Please excuse me!

56
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,560
Sorry, I'm... Sorry. Ah!

57
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,600
DOOR CREAKS CLOSED

58
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,120
SHE EXHALES

59
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,679
SHE EXHALES

60
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,399
"My dear Mary,
I fear your correspondence

61
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,799
"has not been reaching me.

62
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,080
"I have heard nothing
from you at all.

63
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,839
"How are you managing your duties?

64
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,720
"You never were good with children,
even when you were one yourself!

65
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,599
"I may require you to return
to Pemberley,

66
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,760
"where I will be spending
the summer.

67
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,799
"Lizzy has expressed
a wish to see you.

68
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,639
"But more urgently,
my new puppy has a nervous air

69
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,990
"and requires near constant
companionship."

70
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,799
I had come to London to see
the world outside of my family.

71
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,159
And that...

72
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,120
SHE SIGHS
..is what I would do.

73
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,759
Oh, Mary! You're painting! Mm.

74
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:49,999
To teach the children.

75
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,840
Oh, how marvellous to see
your imagination at play.

76
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,359
It's terrible.

77
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,879
No, no, it...

78
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,280
It's very neat.

79
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,850
Did you see the letter
from your mother?

80
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:08,679
Is she well?

81
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,359
Between several complaints
about the damp,

82
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,959
the unseasonable pollen,

83
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,439
and an unpleasant exchange
with a rude shopkeeper,

84
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:17,999
I understand that she is, yes.

85
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,639
I honestly think
she enjoys such encounters.

86
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,400
It makes her feel more alive.

87
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,959
Oh, now, speaking of encounters,

88
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,479
I think this might be
of interest to you.

89
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,599
Tom made a strange request
to Mr Gardiner and I

90
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,199
and extended the invitation
to you too, Mary.

91
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:36,479
Oh? Yes.

92
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,679
He was most mysterious.

93
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,439
He wants us to meet him
tomorrow morning,

94
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,399
where he says he plans to,

95
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,439
"break through our rational reserve

96
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,759
"and move our hearts,
as well as our heads."

97
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,119
He does? Yes!

98
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,600
Whatever that might entail!

99
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,359
I must work on my lesson plans.

100
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,559
Oh, Mary, you must join us.

101
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:58,800
For my sake?

102
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:01,280
Please, consider it.

103
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,600
SHE SIGHS

104
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,720
SHE EXHALES

105
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,640
HORSES WHINNY AND SNICKER

106
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:00,239
Mr and Mrs Gardiner,

107
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,959
Miss Bennet,
thank you for humouring me.

108
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,439
Are we allowed to know
the purpose of our visit?

109
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,959
I have conspired
with the City of London

110
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,999
and William Wordsworth himself for
a morning recital unlike any other.

111
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,199
In a hidden garden.

112
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,959
Good lord.
Will Miss Baxter be joining us?

113
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,119
I'm afraid Miss Baxter
has a variety of excuses

114
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,999
that she skilfully deploys
to avoid such events. Well!

115
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,319
Remind me to ask her what they are!

116
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,439
Yes, I am afraid that my petitions
for good weather have been in vain.

117
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,839
No matter.

118
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,040
We will not be dissuaded
by a little drizzle.

119
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:35,880
A little drizzle?!

120
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:39,760
Just down there.

121
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:47,800
This way? Yes.

122
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,520
BIRDSONG

123
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,760
Oh!

124
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,760
It's magical. Whoa!

125
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,319
Please forgive the theatrics.

126
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,519
I had given Miss Bennet
the impossible task

127
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:23,080
of understanding poetry without
any real sense of how to...feel it.

128
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,399
Sometimes, with poetry,

129
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,000
the more I think,
the less I understand.

130
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,840
"Earth has not anything to show
more fair:

131
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,839
"Dull would he be of soul
who could pass by

132
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,920
"A sight so touching in its majesty:

133
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,879
"This City now doth,

134
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,639
"like a garment, wear

135
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,399
"The beauty of the morning;

136
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,960
"Silent, bare,

137
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:12,079
"Ships, towers, domes, theatres,

138
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,880
"Open unto the fields,

139
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,080
"All bright and glittering

00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,919
"Never did sun

00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,439

"Dear God!

"The very houses seem asleep;

147
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,760
"And all that mighty heart
is lying still!"

148
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,479
Well done, Tom, a moving rendition.

149
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,319
Tom! I confess
I felt entirely transported

150
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,199
by the force of your words.

151
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,319
MARY EXHALES

152
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,839
And what a beautiful place!

153
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,319
Our wisteria never flowers
like this.

154
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,479
Yes, your ability to kill our plants
seems to be second to none.

155
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,839
LAUGHS: Come, let's take a turn.

156
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:25,890
Indeed.

157
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,839
Goodness, Edward,
this place is magical.

158
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,600
It's like a secret garden!
Yes, it is.

159
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,800
MUTED CONVERSATION CONTINUES

160
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,480
Well, Miss Bennet...

161
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:46,799
..how do you feel?

162
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,280
I...

163
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,039
Well, er...

164
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,199
For once, I have nothing to say.

165
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,359
I am sorry to hear that.

166
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,279
No, I, erm...

167
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:58,840
No, I wish to say something...

168
00:11:00,680 --> 00:11:02,560
..inspiring, but I...

169
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,440
..do not know how.

170
00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:07,640
You have such...

171
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,880
..such varied ways to
express your feelings. Mine feel...

172
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,560
..frozen, or...

173
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,320
..feeble, or...

174
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:20,600
..entirely unknowable.

175
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,040
I do not know, Miss Bennet.

176
00:11:23,061 --> 00:11:25,799
But I use the words of others

177
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,360
to puzzle through things
I do not understand.

178
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,959
But, I-I-I do not believe
that you are truly a stranger

179
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,200
to strong emotions.

180
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,680
Oh, forgive me.

181
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,759
Oh, erm...
Sorry, Miss Bennet, I...

182
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:50,879
Oh...

183
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,319
It was just a petal.

184
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,120
Mr Hayward, I...
I think I must leave London.

185
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,239
Well, you've only just arrived.

186
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,719
It's no great event.
My... My mother needs a companion.

187
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,839
I see. And, well, you will likely
be very busy soon,

188
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,560
what with, er,
social engagements and, er...

189
00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:13,840
..Miss Baxter.

190
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:16,679
SOFTLY: Right.

191
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:19,390
I'm sure you'll scarcely
have time to notice I am gone.

192
00:12:19,391 --> 00:12:23,119
Well, I had hoped that
this would restore your spirits.

193
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,159
Oh, indeed, it did.

194
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,480
It did. Thank you.

195
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,080
I shall never forget it.

196
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,759
I shall travel to Pemberley
on the 18th.

197
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,399
Good heavens!

198
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,199
Mary, this is quite unexpected.

199
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,279
Well, is anything the matter?

200
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,319
My mother needs me.

201
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,080
Is my sister bored?

202
00:12:56,081 --> 00:12:59,319
I know that she's more likely
than anyone in England

203
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,519
to summon the troops
on account of her loneliness.

204
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,080
But must you answer the call?

205
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,079
I think I must.

206
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,599
Well, we so enjoy having you here.

207
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,919
The children will be disappointed.

208
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,840
That is kind of you to say.

209
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,160
It is the truth.

210
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,240
I must plan today's lessons.

211
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,319
"Dearest mother,

212
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:39,079
"although my time in London
has been enlightening,

213
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,679
"I will be by your side
for your summer at Pemberley,

214
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:45,000
"as requested.

215
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,479
"I am grateful for the generosity
extended by my aunt and uncle,

216
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,199
"but as you rightly point out,

217
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,959
"I do not wish to burden them.

218
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,039
"And it will of course be, an honour

219
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,840
"to look after your new pup."

220
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:08,840
Hmm.

221
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,559
Good day, sir.

222
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:17,600
I was wondering if I could...

223
00:14:17,601 --> 00:14:20,039
Oh, yes. The one in the window?

224
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,400
INAUDIBLE

225
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,000
Do come in.

226
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,240
MARY CLEARS HER THROAT

227
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,439
"There was an old woman
who lived in a shoe."

228
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,040
CHILDREN GIGGLE

229
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,930
"She had so many children,
she didn't know what to do.

230
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,959
"She gave them some broth
without any bread

231
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,199
"and she whipped them all soundly
and put them to bed!"

232
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,639
CHILDREN GASP

233
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,159
That poem started very well

234
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,039
and ended very badly.

235
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,719
A good observation, Miss Marianne.

236
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,119
Why didn't she just move into a boot
when the children got too many?

237
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:09,679
A fine suggestion, Miss Rebecca.

238
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,750
Is the Glorious Revolution
all finished then, Miss Bennet?

239
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:17,119
This week, we will write
and perform a poem instead.

240
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:18,400
Yes!

241
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,880
I want to do a poem about myself,
because I'm quite interesting.

242
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,359
I'll do typhoid.

243
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,040
Or frogs. Disgusting!

244
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:31,959
Miss Marianne?

245
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,320
Love!

246
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,919
"The eye, it cannot choose but see;

247
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,359
"We cannot bid the ear be still;

248
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,279
"Our bodies feel, where'er they be,

249
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,280
"Against or with our will."

250
00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:01,520
SHE SIGHS

251
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,759
"A big green frog

252
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,399
"Sat on a log.

253
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,519
"The frog was quite full.

254
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,399
"It had eaten ten flies,

255
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:14,999
"Two slugs,

256
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,119
"One worm,

257
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,479
"And three lily pad pies."

258
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,839
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
Bravo!

259
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,079
APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH
Oh, Miss Bennet,

260
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,119
you were obviously inspired
by our morning poetry reading.

261
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:27,479
Oh.

262
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,759
I was. I... No, I, erm...

263
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,519
Yes, I... Yes...

264
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,239
Oh, no! What is it, Miss Rebecca?

265
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,239
I had a prop and I forgot to use it.

266
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:38,479
REBECCA GIGGLES

267
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,159
Oh, er...
FROG RIBBETS

268
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:41,999
Well, erm, fear not.

269
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,759
A prop is, is a cheap trick
that diminishes the power of words!

270
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,200
Indeed, hmph!

271
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,160
Who's next?

272
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,319
"I would be sad to leave London.

273
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,479
"It was the first time I had ever
felt a sense of belonging."

274
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,439
KNOCKING AT DOOR

275
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:05,999
Ah, there you are!

276
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,119
I wanted to say thank you
for such a wonderful day.

277
00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:13,599
The children will be inconsolable
about you leaving.

278
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,439
Marianne is stitching you a cushion.

279
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,519
With an inspirational Latin phrase,
I believe. Oh, yes.

280
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,279
It's, "Mori quam foedari."

281
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,039
Death before dishonour.

282
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,920
Goodness. How exciting.

283
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,240
We shall miss you, Mary.

284
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:37,279
I think we both know I'm not well
suited to...London's liveliness.

285
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,159
Oh, Mary.

286
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,479
You've barely given it a chance!

287
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,719
Things change!

288
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,840
People...

289
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,360
..situations...

290
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,640
..over time.

291
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,280
M-May I venture something
on that subject?

292
00:17:59,960 --> 00:18:03,919
The other day,
I went to buy a bonnet.

293
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,399
And in the first shop I went into,
found a stunning bonnet!

294
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,480
An elegant blue. Quite lovely on me,
if I dare say such a thing.

295
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,400
When I went to purchase it...

296
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,199
..it had been reserved
for someone else.

297
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,319
Hmm.

298
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,759
I went into another shop

299
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,759
and found not four other bonnets
I liked just as much

300
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,720
and, in the end...
SHE CHUCKLES

301
00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:34,760
..one a shade of dusky pink
that suited me even more.

302
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,840
Do you...
Do you see what I'm saying?

303
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,440
Blue is not your colour?

304
00:18:44,441 --> 00:18:48,999
No, I'm saying that London
has such a variety of choices.

305
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,479
And such quantity, too!

306
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,960
You may enjoy the first thing
you see well enough.

307
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,080
But, often, something more exciting
will come along.

308
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,519
Anyway,
I just thought I'd let you know.

309
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,279
Well, erm, yes, thank you for that.

310
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,360
It was very...

311
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,519
..interesting.
Oh, I was meaning to tell you.

312
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,839
We have decided to host
a little entertainment tomorrow,

313
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,319
a night of games.

314
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:17,999
Oh, dear.

315
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,039
What sort of games? No catching.

316
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,439
Word games. Riddles and such.

317
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,279
And very pleasant company.

318
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:28,159
Company I know? Or new company?

319
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,999
All new! And very friendly.

320
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,840
We desperately desire
that you remember London fondly.

321
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,280
This may be your final event
with us before you leave.

322
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,160
"I resolved not to send
the letter to mother just yet.

323
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,760
"It would be a shame
to leave before the weekend."

324
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:58,160
CONVIVIAL LAUGHTER
LIGHT PIANO PLAYS

325
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,720
AMICABLE CHATTER

326
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,199
HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

327
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,399
Sorry, I didn't realise
there was a line. No, please.

328
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,600
I wish more people had such
a restrained relationship to punch.

329
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,319
May I? Oh, yes, of course.

330
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:40,599
SHE CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY

331
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,319
Noble defender of the punch!

332
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:43,880
I surrender my post.

333
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,319
Ha.

334
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,999
And what brings you here -
the word games, or the company?

335
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,279
I like words.

336
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,719
Erm, I'm not much for games.

337
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,639
Ah! Then it is the company
you have come for.

338
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:58,799
Miss...

339
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,240
Bennet. Mary Bennet.

340
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,599
William Ryder.

341
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,879
And where have you come from,
Miss Bennet?

342
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,199
Surely I would have remembered

343
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,879
seeing you near punch bowls
across London.

344
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,000
I am...

345
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,599
..new in town.

346
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,760
Well, I for one am always pleased
to see a new face!

347
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:21,639
BELL TINKLES

348
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,839
Now, please gather, take your seats.

349
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,239
I see the riddles
are about to commence.

350
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,200
We are wise to begin
with full glasses.

351
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:36,879
BELL CHIMES

352
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,079
And now, the quickfire round!

353
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,039
Two words, one answer.

354
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,039
Counterfeit Agony.

355
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,999
Counterfeit agony...

356
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,639
A mean tr-trick?

357
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,239
My brain is in agony, and it isn't
counterfeit. It is quite real.

358
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,759
LAUGHTER

359
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,359
Sham...pain.

360
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:56,719
Champagne! Quite right, Miss Clarke.

361
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,640
Another point to you,
and our new leader!

362
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,799
Fancy delivering us champagne
in word and not in glass!

363
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,199
You tease us, Mr Gardiner!

364
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,490
All right, then, Mr Ryder,
here's one for you.

365
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:10,400
Judy's Fellow.

366
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,719
Oh... Oh!

367
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:15,960
My God, I know it!

368
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,439
Punch!

369
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,559
Oh, well done, Mr Ryder.

370
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,600
Finally,
you've arrived on the score board!

371
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,639
BELL CHIMES

372
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:32,639
My first's a word
comedians dread to hear.

373
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:37,079
My next, new life
in a revolving year.

374
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,719
I'll repeat it!

375
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,639
My first's a word
comedians dread to hear.

376
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,919
My next, new life
in a revolving year.

377
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,119
Oh... Offspring!

378
00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:48,639
Yes! Oh, well done, Miss Bennet!

379
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,399
Well done, Mary!

380
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,559
Well done, bravo!

381
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,119
Yes, Miss Bennet!

382
00:22:55,120 --> 00:22:56,279
Cheers to you!

383
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:57,799
Ha. What's next?

384
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,799
A mandarin. Delicious!

385
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,919
Miss Bennet! How lovely to see you!
You too, Miss Baxter.

386
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,999
Ah, Mr Hayward! Miss Bennet.
We're so pleased you made it.

387
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,719
I had false intelligence
you were busy this evening.

388
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,639
Well, we somehow managed to persuade
Mr Hayward away from his work.

389
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,599
I have an important case.

390
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,759
Oh, he has the terrible fortune of
being the only lawyer in London

391
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,719
who exclusively gets
important cases.

392
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,239
Oh, ahem, do excuse us,

393
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,240
Mrs G... Excuse me?

394
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,359
Miss Bennet?

395
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:28,879
Tom! Will!

396
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,359
THEY LAUGH

397
00:23:30,360 --> 00:23:32,159
Mr Ryder and I studied law together.

398
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,279
Ah! Yes!

399
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:37,439
Mr Hayward is responsible for
my untimely retirement in the field.

400
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,679
Is that so, Mr Ryder?

401
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,999
Well, he fed me so many poems,

402
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,599
I believed myself
a deep, romantic soul,

403
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,759
too sensitive for
the rigours of law!

404
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,639
That seems like a heavy charge to
lay solely at the feet of poetry.

405
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,279
Well...

406
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,199
Mary,
how is the night of games going?

407
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,639
Do we have any hope for making
a late charge for the prize?

408
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,239
Not unless you wish to bribe
our hosts.

409
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,279
Miss Bennet here
is putting us all to shame.

410
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,159
Oh, nonsense, Mr Ryder.
You beat me to the "punch"!

411
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:03,679
I... You see?!

412
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,919
Masterful with words! I...

413
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,439
MARY TITTERS BASHFULLY

414
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:12,119
Please gather yourselves
for the penultimate round!

415
00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:14,279
Mr Ryder. What?

416
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,200
I'm glad to see you're
in better spirits, Miss Bennet.

417
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,920
This evening has been
something of a tonic, Mr Hayward.

418
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,320
BELL TINKLES
Round three! Ready?

419
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:30,799
Sunday!

420
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,960
Yes! A point to Miss Baxter! Bravo!

421
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,439
Think sharp! Is it Doldrums?

422
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,279
Oh...
No, no, no, forget I said anything.

423
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,399
Is it mercury?

424
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,559
Yes! It is indeed! Well done, Mary.

425
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,560
Is it really?
Well done! How remarkable!

426
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,719
AUDIENCE GROANS
Come on!

427
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,119
Oh, er... Anybody?

428
00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:53,639
..Lighthouse! Yes!

429
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,919
I barely had a chance to think,
let alone speak!

430
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,639
I've never known a lack of thinking
to prevent you from speaking!

431
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,639
LAUGHTER

432
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:06,200
That is five points apiece
for Miss Clarke and Miss Bennet.

433
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:09,719
Well done!

434
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,000
BELL TINKLES

435
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:14,919
The final round.

436
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,519
The two players with
the most points go head-to-head

437
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,919
to crack one final riddle
and decide the winner.

438
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,639
The leaders come as no surprise -

439
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,080
Miss Clarke...

440
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,079
..and Miss Bennet.

441
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,039
You mean I didn't make it?!

442
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,639
Oh, I'm astonished.

443
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,690
Mrs Gardiner,
would you do the honours?

444
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,559
To suffer my second's
the doom of my first,

445
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:44,880
and of all of my seconds,
my whole is the worst.

446
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,919
Oh! Heartache!
GASPING

447
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,119
Yes!

448
00:26:00,120 --> 00:26:03,159
Good lord!
She's Britain's finest mind!

449
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,079
Hurrah. Huzzah!

450
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,439
Miss Bennet!

451
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,359
Miss Bennet!

452
00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:10,759
We declare we have a winner!

453
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,639
London's newest arrival,
but its fiercest competitor,

454
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,439
Miss Mary Bennet!

455
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,519
Huzzah!
ALL CHEER AND APPLAUD

456
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:19,720
Well done!

457
00:26:19,731 --> 00:26:23,399
I'm very glad
that we arrived in time

458
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,319
to see you crowned, Miss Bennet.

459
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,600
Thank you.

460
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,799
I wanted to say, I felt...

461
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,600
Miss Bennet, you are a liar.

462
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:33,719
Am I?

463
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,479
You told me
you were not much for games!

464
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,399
Well, I ...

465
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,599
I can't catch.

466
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,239
THEY LAUGH

467
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,799
Miss Bennet, I have been meaning
to invite you to tea,

468
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,079
since I hear, very sadly,
you are leaving London?

469
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:47,319
Miss Bennet! Surely not!

470
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,399
You can't deprive
the game players of London your...

471
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,399
Your riddling talents!

472
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,759
A round of applause for our winner,
Miss Bennet!

473
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,159
Oh! Well done!

474
00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,839
ACCLAIM AND APPLAUSE

475
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,479
Bravo! Bravo.

476
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:06,279
In that moment, I think I understood
what my aunt was telling me

477
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,160
with the convoluted story
about the bonnets.

478
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:17,000
That quantity has a quality
all of its own.

479
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,439
I never doubted you.

480
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,119
MARY CHUCKLES

481
00:27:26,120 --> 00:27:27,559
This way.

482
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:28,880
Thank you for coming.

483
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,079
Mary! How you shone!
Thank you, Aunt.

484
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,159
You even caught the attention of
the most eligible bachelor in town!

485
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,839
I... I've been thinking.

486
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,599
Erm, it seems a shame to leave
London before I've,

487
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,839
you know, given it a fair chance.

488
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,919
I think I might like to stay
a little while,

489
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,799
if it's not too much burden.

490
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,479
It's not a burden to us at all!

491
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:57,839
We're delighted to have you with us!
MRS GARDINER CHUCKLES

492
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,239
Oh, thank you so much for coming...

493
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,039
Living in London
was helping me to see that

494
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,870
there could be more to life
than just marriage or misery.

495
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,319
Perhaps my aunt was right.

496
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,320
Even the most
hopeless of situations...

497
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,719
..the most hopeless of people can,

498
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:22,120
with kindness, change,
little by little, over time.

499
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,880
I was excited to discover
who Mary Bennet might be.
