1
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,160
Never fear, my sweet.
For tonight, I shall...

2
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:14,440
Free you from...

3
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,680
...free you from your father's
cruel bonds.

4
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,079
Gwen, you promised
you'd be word-perfect!

5
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,800
We can't have prompting today,
in front of the parents...

6
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:26,800
We shall run away together.

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,160
The sword, Gwen.

8
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:31,360
Oh, and...

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,960
woe betide him
if he tries to stop us!

10
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:37,960
Girls! Do be careful.

11
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,680
Can someone help me, please?

12
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,240
Oh, for goodness' sake!

13
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,400
I can't be excited about Open Day.
Not knowing it might be our last.

14
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:52,720
The school can't be really closing.

15
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,560
Darrell saw it in writing!

16
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,840
What is so tremendously interesting
that it cannot wait until lunch?

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,640
Irene

18
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,880
perhaps you would like
to share it with us.

19
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,080
When was I going to hear about
the school closing, Miss Grayling?

20
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,200
I had to learn it from the girls.

21
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:18,560
Nothing's set in stone.

22
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,920
I'm still doing my best
to work things out

23
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,200
and today is crucial.

24
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,959
- I've worked here for 20 years.
- Please, Matron.

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,560
It's imperative that
these rumours do not spread.

26
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,360
I'd like you to speak
to the girls at once.

27
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:32,880
If you cannot trust me with the truth

28
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,920
then how can you trust me
to speak to the girls?

29
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,040
I suggest you do it yourself.

30
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,760
Miss Grayling,
I'm utterly sorry but...

31
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,040
I picked up the dictionary,
and there was a letter underneath.

32
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,680
You read my private mail?

33
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,440
I didn't mean to read it

34
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:53,920
but I saw what it said.

35
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,280
She didn't tell everyone though.

36
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,080
I was there, and even I didn't
know til Gwen read Darrell's diary

37
00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:59,480
and told everyone about it.

38
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,320
I am very disappointed in you both.

39
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,600
I'm so, so sorry...

40
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,480
But is it really true
the school is closing down?

41
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:14,800
I must be honest with you, girls.

42
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:17,960
Its future is under threat.

43
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,240
Oh, Miss Grayling.

44
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,800
Is there anything we can do to help?

45
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:21,880
Yes.

46
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,680
Promise to keep this to yourselves.

47
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,040
Just for today.

48
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,560
Are you asking us to lie?

49
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,240
I'm asking you not to
broadcast private information.

50
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,639
If parents panic, staying open
may not be possible.

51
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,440
Well, it sounds like
it's not possible anyway.

52
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,200
There may still be a way through!

53
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,000
What? Some incredibly
rich businessman

54
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,960
may happen to stroll up and
decide to give you enough money

55
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,240
to keep the school open?

56
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,400
Wait... is that what's happening?
Is that why today is so important?

57
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:49,919
Crikey.

58
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,960
I do hope to secure
a backer today, yes.

59
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,680
The school must look its best

60
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,840
and you must all shine.

61
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,800
What if this businessman
isn't convinced?

62
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,840
Then I'll make an announcement
after the play

63
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,560
about the likelihood
of the school closing.

64
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,680
- Miss Grayling!
- You are dismissed.

65
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,200
Darrell.

66
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,639
Before you go, can I have a word?

67
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,600
- Am I in more trouble?
- Always.

68
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:21,040
Not this time.

69
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,880
But I have some unfortunate news.

70
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,080
Your father has to perform
an emergency operation today.

71
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:28,160
He's not coming?

72
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,800
Sorry. Neither he nor your mother
can be here, I'm afraid.

73
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,520
But as you'll have time on your hands

74
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,320
I have a task for you.

75
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,120
Could you lead
a small group on a tour?

76
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,680
Of course, anything to
make it up to you.

77
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,880
Just be the impressive ambassador
for the school I know you are.

78
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,000
Since when did
we do tours on Open Day?

79
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,440
Is this for the investor?

80
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,160
Why would you trust her,
of all people?

81
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,000
After she read
your private correspondence?

82
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,240
Only if you trust people

83
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,200
can they live up
to your faith in them.

84
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,360
Was Miss Grayling
terribly cross, Darrell?

85
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,160
No, it wasn't about that.
I'm to lead a tour round the school.

86
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,279
I wonder who it is
I'll be showing around?

87
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:24,920
Oh, there's your mother, Gwen!

88
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,200
You are lucky she came
despite it all.

89
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:28,560
What are you talking about?

90
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,960
Well, with your father being ill.

91
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,839
Darrell Rivers. Listen to me.

92
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,880
Not a word about my father being ill.

93
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:35,960
Why?

94
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,560
Because it would make
Mother terribly upset.

95
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,480
It's making me upset,
thinking about it.

96
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,000
Darrell was only trying to be kind.

97
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,920
Well, she shouldn't,
and neither should you!

98
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,920
Neither of you must mention
a word about Daddy's illness.

99
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,600
- Promise!
- Promise.

100
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,240
Oh, dear.

101
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,520
I did actually mention it
when I wrote to my granny.

102
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,760
Don't worry. She probably
won't bring it up, but

103
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,000
if she does, it just shows you
and she both care.

104
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,279
Where's the harm in that?

105
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,480
Mother, you look wonderful.

106
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,080
Do I? Thank you.

107
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,240
- That's lovely!
- From Daddy.

108
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,040
Real emeralds, you know,
to match my...

109
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,920
Darling, your hair...

110
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,680
It's for the play.
I'm the main part, you see.

111
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,360
I can't wait for you to see it.

112
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,400
I'm excited to see you in costume!

113
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,960
Do you have a wonderful frock?

114
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,560
Daddy is terribly sorry to miss it.

115
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,400
He's terribly busy at the company,
but I've promised to catch him up.

116
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,160
Do you think he might lift
the punishment?

117
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:33,640
That's between you and him.

118
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,040
You know how disappointed
he was with you last term.

119
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,640
He places such value on "mucking in".

120
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:40,720
Oh, but I am!

121
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,480
I've been desperate all term.

122
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,000
It's really hard to get by here
without pocket money.

123
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,279
Well, let's see how today goes.

124
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,440
And I'll think about
making the case to him.

125
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,920
Yes, of course, but...
and if a job vacancy comes up

126
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,640
I have an unblemished...

127
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:09,400
Well!

128
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,120
I wouldn't want to work
for you anyway!

129
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:24,800
Ah, yes, good afternoon.

130
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,560
Am I speaking
with Elizabeth Housing Place?

131
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,200
At what time will she be back?

132
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,520
- Oh, yes...
- Georgina!

133
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,120
Mother, this is Georgina Thomas,
my friend.

134
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,840
The one I wrote to you about?

135
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:40,680
We're doing the play together.

136
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,920
- Gwendoline Mary Lacey.
- Ah, the famous Gwendoline.

137
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:45,760
Francis Thomas.

138
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,440
- Sylvia Louise Mary Lacey.
- Nice to meet you.

139
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,120
It's a real coup that Daddy's come.

140
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,440
This is his first visit.
He's normally far too busy.

141
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:53,720
Sandwiches?

142
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,400
Well done, Gwendoline.

143
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,320
The Thomases of Thomas Mines!

144
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,680
Just the sort of friends
Daddy hoped you'd make.

145
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,080
Hello, everyone!

146
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,680
Sorry to break things up,
but I need those girls in the play.

147
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,520
- Now.
- Come along Gwen, final rehearsals.

148
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,840
Oh, Mother? You will be all right
on your own, won't you?

149
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,560
We'll keep each other company.

150
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,840
I'm being shown around
the grounds any minute.

151
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,120
Why not join me on the school tour?

152
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,400
Why, thank you.

153
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:21,440
Lovely day for it.

154
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,200
Mr Thomas, let me introduce you
to Darrell, your tour guide.

155
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,000
I'm so pleased to meet you.

156
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,640
I promise to give you
the best ever tour.

157
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,240
No need for special treatment.

158
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,360
I'd like to see the school from
the girls' perspective, warts and all.

159
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,240
Bye, Daddy! Don't miss the play.

160
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,559
- I won't.
- Come on.

161
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,760
Remember, not a word
about my father. All right?

162
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:49,679
So, if you'd just like
to walk this way.

163
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:50,960
Oh, Darrell!

164
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,679
My granny's got an extra passenger,
so we've got one more for your tour.

165
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,200
- Oh, no, I don't think...
- Darrell!

166
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,600
Felicity? How?

167
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,160
She was so upset at missing Open Day.

168
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,679
Daddy called and arranged
for me to come with...

169
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,960
...Granny Margot.

170
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,200
That's what Mary-Lou calls me

171
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,640
and so may you both.

172
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,200
Imagine, this will be
my school too, in a few terms.

173
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,520
I really want you to come along

174
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,440
but I've got a lot
of responsibility today, so...

175
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,559
I'll help you. It'll be fun!

176
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,679
Granny and I could come too?
For moral support.

177
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,679
Alicia, Alicia, quick!

178
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,440
- What?
- I think Matron's leaving!

179
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,040
What?

180
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,120
What are you two looking at?

181
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:45,840
Ellen, back to bed.

182
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,400
Are you going somewhere, Matron?

183
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:50,559
I'm due some leave.

184
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,679
Even we staff are
allowed time off sometimes.

185
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,200
Has the school closure
been confirmed?

186
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,920
She's been telephoning
about a new job.

187
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,600
Have you been listening in
to my private business, Ellen?

188
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,200
- No... I...
- Matron...

189
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,480
How could you?

190
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,480
We have to pull together
to save the school

191
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,440
not run like rats
from a sinking ship!

192
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,800
Are you calling me a rat,
Ellen Wilson?

193
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,080
We both are!

194
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,800
Miss Grayling needs you, Matron!

195
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,200
Well, if she needed me,
she would have told me before now.

196
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,960
Sometimes you have
to look after number one.

197
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,040
No one else is going to do it.

198
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,520
How am I going to "look after
number one" if the school shuts?

199
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:32,760
Where am I going to go?

200
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,080
- Won't your family...
- I can't bear to go back to my aunt.

201
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:36,559
I worked so hard to get away!

202
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,440
Matron, please...

203
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,679
Stay. Help.

204
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,080
Nothing I do
will make a difference now.

205
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,600
And from here,
we have a wonderful view

206
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,320
of our historic school buildings.

207
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,040
- Splendid.
- Gracious.

208
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,800
Quite a few cracks in that roof.

209
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,880
That must be why there
was a leak in your dormy.

210
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,880
If you could please
just walk this way.

211
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,800
And over here we have the natural
beauty of our own freshwater stream.

212
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,520
The water's a bit cloudy.

213
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,360
Interesting.
Does it always look that way?

214
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,800
Well, I suppose it does, but...

215
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,000
The grounds sweep
all the way over to the sea

216
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,200
- and we have our own swimming pool.
- ...cut from the rocks!

217
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,040
It's extremely impressive.

218
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:44,760
Darrell says everyone loves it

219
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,080
except for Gwen.

220
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,000
She's such a cowardy custard!

221
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,600
Poor Gwen.

222
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,679
Don't be so hard on her, girls.

223
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,600
After all, it can't be easy
with her father being so ill.

224
00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,800
How is Mr Lacey?

225
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,240
I beg your pardon?

226
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,559
Well, Mary-Lou told me
the sad news about his...

227
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,800
His serious illness.

228
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,400
Did she? I see.

229
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,080
Girls, show me
where this stream goes.

230
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,520
What's this Gwendoline's said
about her father?

231
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:36,640
- Nothing. Really.
- I don't remember.

232
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,600
Of course you remember,
if you told your grandmother.

233
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:39,679
- I think maybe you'd...
- We should carry on with the tour...

234
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,160
Tell me what my daughter said.

235
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,440
All we know is that

236
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,160
Mr Lacey is very ill
and we are very sorry.

237
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,040
Tell Mr Thomas I've urgently
had to go back to the school.

238
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,360
Oh, Mrs Lacey.

239
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,120
Mrs Lacey, you can't go that way.

240
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,559
I think you'll find
I can go any way I...

241
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,040
Help!

242
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:05,720
Help me!

243
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:10,880
Help me!

244
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:12,720
Wait there, wait!

245
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,800
Now, don't move,
or you really will get stuck.

246
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,480
Why is it so muddy there, I wonder?

247
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:19,760
Oh, my shoes!

248
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,200
Everyone, one last time!
Scene 7, from the top.

249
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:25,480
Cue chicken.

250
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,200
Here comes my valiant steed!

251
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,200
Jean, the horse is not our star.
Straight to Lady Jane, please.

252
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,440
Do you want to sabotage the show?

253
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,320
If we make a mat of these branches...

254
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,520
- I'll get another branch.
- Thanks, but just stand back!

255
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,080
Mr Thomas, let me. I'm lighter.

256
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,880
Here, take my hand.

257
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,200
Good show, Darrell Rivers!

258
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:09,600
Hang on, just one more.

259
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,320
Mr Thomas!

260
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,720
Oh, no...

261
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,679
Granny!

262
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,480
Please, Matron, we need you.

263
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:31,640
- Please, just stay...
- No!

264
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,960
What difference does it make
to some fat-cat businessman

265
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,440
if one tower has a matron or not?

266
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,280
- You know if I'm right...
- Matron. Oh, thank heavens.

267
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:38,840
- We need your help.
- What's going on?

268
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,160
It's the investor.
His suit is covered in mud.

269
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:42,320
He won't be able to see the play...

270
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:43,760
Well, it's probably
a jolly good thing!

271
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,000
Not at all. Him seeing
his daughter as the star

272
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,800
is our last chance
to get him to invest.

273
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,440
There's no way I can clean and dry
a suit ahead of the play starting.

274
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,040
I know what you could do, though.

275
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,080
Gwendoline!

276
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,960
Sorry, it's Georgina.

277
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,240
Gwen!

278
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,520
What is that absurd outfit?

279
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:12,920
I thought you said you were the lead?

280
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,920
I am, the Highwayman. Fast Jack.

281
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,000
I need to talk to you. Now.

282
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,600
No, I can't.
The play's about to start.

283
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,360
You have a lot of explaining
to do, my girl.

284
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,360
I'm covered in mud.

285
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,400
And what's this
about your father's health?

286
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,720
- What?
- I've been utterly humiliated

287
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,560
and in front of Mr Thomas too.

288
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,560
How could you put me
in this position?

289
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,400
- I...
- Everyone offering me consolation

290
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,040
for my sick husband!

291
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,920
Why would you lie like that?

292
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:43,920
I didn't mean to.

293
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,280
It was a mistake, a misunderstanding.

294
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,880
Gwen, we need you!

295
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,760
Hurry! We're about to start.

296
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,280
I have to go, Mother.
We can continue this afterwards.

297
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,120
I can't possibly sit through a play
after the upset you've caused me.

298
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,640
And I will be telling your father
all about this.

299
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,280
No! Mother, please don't tell
Father anything.

300
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:06,720
Please!

301
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,160
Come on.

302
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,920
You know, Mary-Lou is so happy...

303
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,280
Matron's helping Mr Thomas
with his suit.

304
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,400
- It's all going to be all right.
- No, it isn't.

305
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,040
Gwen ran off. It's almost curtains up

306
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,320
and we have no Highwayman.

307
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,600
There's no way we can win
round Mr Thomas now.

308
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:39,880
No, wait.

309
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,080
We can.

310
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,640
- Look, we don't have to have Gwen!
- How's that?

311
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,400
Darrell knows the lines
better than Gwen does!

312
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:46,840
- That's not saying much.
- So you can play the part instead!

313
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,280
- No, I don't think...
- Darrell, you must!

314
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,200
- It's a smashing idea!
- We need you!

315
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,680
This is our last chance to
win Mr Thomas over!

316
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,120
He has to see his daughter star in...

317
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:57,320
- Hat. Hat.
- Come on. Hurry!

318
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,160
- I can't do this.
- Don't forget your sword!

319
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,000
- Hat.
- You have to.

320
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,120
- Be brilliant!
- Come on. You've got this.

321
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,400
- Break a leg!
- Break a leg, Darrell!

322
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,040
The show must go on.

323
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,000
Miss Grayling, may I? Thank you.

324
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,080
Is that my suit?

325
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,960
It's for the greater good!

326
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,960
Ladies and Gentlemen,
welcome to <i>The Summit of Love!</i>

327
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,640
My father, I'll cross.

328
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,520
It's you that I win,
so I count it no loss.

329
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,320
Jack, must it be tonight?

330
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:01,320
Gwendoline!

331
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,200
I'm so pleased you're here.

332
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,840
Mother, I thought you'd gone.

333
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,280
I must have lost my new brooch
on that dreadful tour.

334
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,320
Come along,
I need you to help me find it.

335
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,240
Gwendoline?

336
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,480
I don't like to ask twice.

337
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,280
Simply enthralling!

338
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,680
And Darrell kept her starring role
under the hat.

339
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,240
Never fear, my sweet.

340
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,080
Tomorrow night, I shall free you
from your father's cruel bonds.

341
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,200
- We shall run away together!
- And woe...

342
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,800
And... and woe betide him
and tries to stop us!

343
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:08,760
It must be here somewhere.

344
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,560
You will tell Daddy
I helped look, won't you?

345
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,520
If you think this makes up
for the lies you told about him

346
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,080
you've got another think coming.

347
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,040
You try that way.

348
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,080
<i>We came here as girls</i>

349
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,720
<i>To be women of the world</i>
<i>And will do so with prosperity</i>

350
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:49,280
Encore!

351
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,560
- Encore, encore!
- Wonderful!

352
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,400
Miss Grayling, please, don't say
anything yet. There's still time.

353
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:08,600
Ladies and gentlemen.

354
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:10,640
Girls.

355
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,640
I have important news about
the future of Malory Towers.

356
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:15,800
Important...

357
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,160
and wonderful news.

358
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:19,520
Perhaps you heard the rumour

359
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,760
that Malory Towers
was threatened with closure.

360
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,240
Nothing could be further
from the truth.

361
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,359
Georgina's father, Mr Thomas

362
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,400
is investing in the school

363
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:34,160
and, with me, will lead the school
to a new, prosperous future.

364
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,359
Everywhere I've been today

365
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,960
I have seen
resourceful girls and staff

366
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,080
pulling together
for the greater good.

367
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,119
This show was no exception.

368
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:53,520
I'm impressed

369
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,440
and I've really enjoyed myself.
Thank you.

370
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,640
Malory Towers forever!

371
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:16,880
- Encore!
- Bravo!

372
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,600
- Bye, Daddy!
- Bye, darling. Well done again.

373
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,560
The show was
really, really first rate.

374
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:29,640
Thank you.

375
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,080
Margot?

376
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,680
Margot!

377
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,320
I love you, darling!

378
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,160
- It's nice seeing you, Granny!
- See you soon!

379
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:50,920
Thank heavens you saved the day.

380
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,040
I so desperately want to come here

381
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,240
just as soon as I'm old enough.

382
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:55,640
Well, now you can.

383
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,600
Do tell your father, we think
he's ever so wonderful

384
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,680
- for saving the school.
- Well, you can tell him yourself.

385
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:21,720
He's coming back next week
to go through the details.

386
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:23,800
And to give Mr Parker back his suit.

387
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,600
That was quite a performance!

388
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,080
Darrell, thank you
for everything you did today.

389
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,040
Mr Thomas spoke
very highly of your tour.

390
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,400
Matron.

391
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,080
Are you leaving?

392
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,480
I have leave owing.

393
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,840
I was going to take
a weekend away, but...

394
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,040
If you need me, I suppose I can stay.

395
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,720
Your quick-thinking with Mr Parker's
clothes saved the day.

396
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,560
Ah, no. We have Ellen to
thank for that idea.

397
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,040
It was very sporting of him.

398
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,000
Malory Towers needs you
more than ever.

399
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,200
Please stay.

400
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,119
The summer holidays will be here
before you know it!

401
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,160
I can't believe I'm so glad
Matron's staying.

402
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:14,680
Let's get back to the others.

403
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:16,800
What a day!

404
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,240
Darrell, look.

405
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,640
- What a terrible day!
- I'm so, so sorry.

406
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,680
Poor Gwen.
I think we got her into trouble.

407
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:28,960
I'm so upset!

408
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,200
Look, here's the car. I must go.

409
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,640
I don't know how I'll face
your father without my brooch.

410
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:43,720
I'll keep looking!

411
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,560
If I find it,
I'll be sure to let you know.

412
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:48,920
Goodbye, Mother!
