1
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:09,440
This programme contains scenes
of violence from the outset.

2
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,080
Master Joliffe is not
the true owner of the land.

3
00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:15,920
We are the owners of the
land for we make it fruitful.

4
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,040
I've led her by the nose
like a willing sow.

5
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:21,080
There are those who believe
that love can save us all.

6
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,920
They're called the High Attainers
and I've made friends amongst them.

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:25,960
Do you lie with him?

8
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,280
If you pray

9
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,200
until you can pray no more.

10
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,120
If you sigh
to the breaking of your loins.

11
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:47,200
And every sigh a tear,

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,480
and every tear a drop of blood.

13
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:56,440
Yet will you have lost all
by the commission of that one sin

14
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,480
of disobedience!

15
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,440
When your hearts
swelled with false pride

16
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,040
and God's command was disobeyed,

17
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,320
then came all the other sins.

18
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,440
Of murder and adultery

19
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,480
and fornication!

20
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:21,360
And when God's voice
in England was stopped,

21
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:26,320
when our great nation
descended into darkness,

22
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:33,960
Then came female licentiousness
and whoredom all around us.

23
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,160
For what woman now knows
her place in the world?

24
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,080
Who are you? >

25
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,800
I am as I am. Pull him down.

26
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:51,760
< Leave him!

27
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,080
There is no Hell.

28
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,800
She blasphemes! >

29
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,880
Except when your children cry,

30
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:01,880
< No women preachers!

31
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,920
with empty bellies.

32
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,080
There is no heaven, except
where you find the universal love

33
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,080
that is there in your hearts.

34
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,000
Be not afraid of these phantoms
that are nothing but the nightmares

35
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,240
of his foolish imaginings
and all like him

36
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,800
that would keep you
in your accustomed places.

37
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,600
Arrest her! Bring her out!

38
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,480
Away with her!

39
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,600
Take her away.

40
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,160
Bring her.

41
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:44,600
What shall I call you now, madam?

42
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,760
Your prisoner, my Lord?

43
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,000
No.

44
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:52,840
Mistress Sexby, then.

45
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,880
Your friends, the Ranters,

46
00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:00,480
the High Attainers...

47
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:08,120
They find holiness in tobacco
and alcohol and fornication.

48
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,920
< God in an ivy leaf,

49
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,720
God in yourselves.

50
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,480
< And the Bible is wastepaper.

51
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,920
Who tells you this?

52
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:19,960
I fear you mean to crush
us as you did the Levellers.

53
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,680
Bluntly, madam,

54
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,920
in a world without Hell,
how will I uphold the law?

55
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,080
Was this the freedom you fought
so bravely for, my Lord General?

56
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,440
All that we fought
for is in the balance.

57
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,720
There is anarchy abroad and the
Parliament want an iron hand.

58
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,920
The Parliament wants money and land.

59
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,200
It took my land, gave it to Master
Joliffe to enjoy for life.

60
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,960
Master Joliffe,
who called me a whore.

61
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,280
There are some that would like
the clocks to be turned back.

62
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,400
But I will not let them, for
all their bleating in Parliament.

63
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,400
Then leave my friends free to speak
the love in their hearts.

64
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,320
You are certain of their hearts?

65
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,240
We seek an honest way
to live on earth now,

66
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,400
not in terror of what's to come.

67
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,560
Yet you blaspheme, madam.

68
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,200
What, will you burn me?

69
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,240
Put a branding iron on me?

70
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,520
Hang me?

71
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,720
Have a care, Angelica.

72
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:28,680
There is a world of difference
between freedom and licentiousness.

73
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:33,840
And think of me as your friend.

74
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,200
Visit me. My old friends,
they veer away from me now.

75
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:05,720
My lady.

76
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,200
This is the body of Christ.

77
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,960
This is the blood of Christ!

78
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
I must confess to you.

79
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,080
My heart is not true.

80
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,600
It betrays me every hour
that I'm with you.

81
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:49,480
I'm lured on a desire

82
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,480
that a world tells me what
I conceive with you is sin.

83
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,080
Is love a sin, madam?

84
00:05:57,840 --> 00:05:59,480
Tell me...

85
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,560
it is not a sin.

86
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,600
I am married, Christian.

87
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,320
In outward form only.

88
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,840
Yet I will not dishonour him.

89
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,440
Why did you resign your commission?

90
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,360
Still no better man for
a fight in these islands.

91
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,000
I am finished with fighting.

92
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,000
Well then, I have
other work for you.

93
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,400
Honest John has met
with the Cavaliers.

94
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,640
They've talked about bringing
in the King's son from France.

95
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,520
I know this to be true.

96
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,400
How "know it"?

97
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,480
We have agents
among the malcontents.

98
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,520
What work?

99
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,720
Go to them, as one
disaffected with me.

100
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,280
And seek out their thoughts
and their strength.

101
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,560
Where is Honest John now? >

102
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,000
Have you read this?

103
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,960
He calls upon the nation
to rise up against you.

104
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,240
Do you not sleep easily in your
palace at Hampton, my Lord?

105
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:10,640
The country was pleased
to show its gratitude

106
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,640
to my Lord for his many services.

107
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,760
Parliament gave it. I remember
not the country being asked.

108
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,640
Perhaps Master Sexby need not
act the part of disaffected.

109
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,280
I could not tolerate this, Edward.
This is open rebellion.

110
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,480
Then put him on trial.

111
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,080
Where's the jury that
will find him guilty?

112
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,000
No. No trial.

113
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,640
If you move against
him without the law,

114
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,320
the whole of London will burn.

115
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,520
Do you smell smoke?

116
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,560
Honest John is even now sailing

117
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,400
for Jersey where the writ of
Habeas Corpus does not run.

118
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,600
Give me your answer tomorrow.

119
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:52,680
Have it now.

120
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,480
I will not act parts.

121
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,600
Have a care, Edward.

122
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,280
We must all bend to
the times, all of us.

123
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,000
What will not bend may break.

124
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:08,840
Tomorrow.

125
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,640
You must pull your wife
out of the Ranters, sir.

126
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,600
She does not wear my reins, sir.

127
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,280
A pity for her and for you.

128
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,800
She runs to her utter destruction.

129
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,680
How's the game?

130
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,200
Near won, sir.

131
00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:30,200
Is she debauched?
Have you had her yet?

132
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,200
Not yet.

133
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,280
You are too slow.

134
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,560
It must happen today.
For all to see.

135
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,520
Troopers come to arrest
the fornicators.

136
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:14,880
< Aah!

137
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,080
Cry out, Master Joliffe, and I
will open your nose like a fig.

138
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,800
Now, tell me...

139
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,360
what must be done today?

140
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,600
A whore will be unmasked...

141
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,280
Aah!

142
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,160
Kill him!

143
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,640
Christian...

144
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,800
..I know you have a true heart...

145
00:10:55,560 --> 00:10:57,280
..but I...

146
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,080
You wanted freedom, madam.

147
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,280
It's found you.

148
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,800
You wanted universal love.

149
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,680
Well, here it is.
The genuine resurrection.

150
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,680
The world turned upside down.

151
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:50,680
And here, your portion...though you
made me wait a weary year for it.

152
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,880
Arrest her!

153
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,480
He that poisoned you
is food for dogs now.

154
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,720
He was in paid service.

155
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:23,320
His task, to debauch you and bring
further ridicule upon the Ranters.

156
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:31,560
Who?

157
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,080
Joliffe.

158
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,760
That should have died
in Wightham Woods.

159
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,960
Yet he will die...

160
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,240
and soon.

161
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:42,920
Leave him, Sexby.

162
00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:48,400
He is an account
that must be settled.

163
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,880
I will settle it.

164
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:02,800
There is food.

165
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,840
< Sexby...

166
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,840
Call for coals.

167
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,280
I will return tonight.

168
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:19,960
Thank you.

169
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:43,720
Are you unwell?

170
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,520
No.

171
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,480
All is well.

172
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,520
Nothing is ill. I-I will return.

173
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:56,440
They have silenced Honest John. They
have murdered Thomas Rainsborough.

174
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,440
There is none but us now.

175
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,440
Can you love a fool?

176
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,080
For that I have been.

177
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,040
My love began on the day
you married Harry Fanshawe.

178
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,800
I did not know I had a heart
until that hour.

179
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,600
You filled it with...

180
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,320
..unknown creatures,

181
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,240
whose names were joy

182
00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:59,880
and hope.

183
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:06,360
Both sharper blades than
any that had cut me before.

184
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,200
I have something of yours.

185
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,200
I've kept it on me every day.

186
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,360
Then do not part with it now.

187
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,040
As I will not with you.

188
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,040
If you will take me.

189
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,080
You do not say "aye", sir.

190
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,520
I cannot take Rainsborough's
widow to me

191
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,880
while his murderers
still walk the earth.

192
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,800
Even yesterday,
scenes of abominable lewdness

193
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,320
and fornication
were uncovered among the Ranters.

194
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:04,040
While this House nods asleep
and speaks of toleration.

195
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,680
Sirs, this "toleration"
will undo us all! >

196
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,400
Let the fornicators be brought
before magistrates and be punished.

197
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:17,080
Their lewd ill manners do not argue
an end to religious toleration.

198
00:17:17,120 --> 00:17:19,960
Now you have other business today,
I am told.

199
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,640
The motion is that this House
declares that no authority

200
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,040
shall end this House's sessions...

201
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:35,520
Will you persist, sirs?

202
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,280
..except its own authority.

203
00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:38,280
You will keep yourselves here
in perpetuity?!

204
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,920
Those for the motion say "Aye".

205
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,960
Stop, enough!

206
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,680
I'll put an end to your prattling.

207
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,200
You are no Parliament!
Get you gone!

208
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,000
Go, call them in!

209
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,360
Get you gone.

210
00:18:06,120 --> 00:18:08,160
Take your hands from me!

211
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,640
And take this bauble with you!

212
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,080
What is this place?

213
00:18:57,360 --> 00:18:59,080
Mont Orgeuil.

214
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:02,200
In English - "Mount Pride".

215
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,280
It is your pride has
got you your new home.

216
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,560
Do not hope to leave here.

217
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,200
This is your tomb, sir.

218
00:19:12,120 --> 00:19:14,680
Bring me pen and ink.
When Oliver hears of this...

219
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,760
No pen and ink ever again,
Master Lilburne.

220
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,200
It is the Lord General
himself has sent you here.

221
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,480
< And since you may not write,
you have no need of candles.

222
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,160
You have doubts, Edward.

223
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,360
Will you play a part
with the Cavalier party?

224
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,000
Do you have agents
among all the parties?

225
00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:53,000
That you need not know.

226
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,200
How long have you had agents
amongst the Royalist party?

227
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:56,200
I have other business...

228
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,760
Had you agents among the Royalists at
the time of Rainsborough's murder?

229
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,080
Why were those men heard to
cry out that they came from Cromwell?

230
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,000
I will tell my Lord
that your answer was no.

231
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,240
He will not be pleased.

232
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:12,760
I will tell him myself.

233
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,480
Then find him at Westminster,
for there he stays.

234
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,680
< Sexby...

235
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,280
Only madmen oppose us now.

236
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,200
I pray you be not mad.

237
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:33,960
At Westminster. Come.

238
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,040
Sexby, stay. Talk with me.

239
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,800
We talked the night he was
cut in pieces. No more talk.

240
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,120
Edward! Are you with me again?

241
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,280
Sexby!

242
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,360
What is it, Edward?

243
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,640
My Lord, we came to ask mercy
for John Lilburne

244
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,760
and to pray you,
when will he have his trial?

245
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,800
Never, madam.

246
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,080
< Then when will he be free?

247
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,320
Again, never.

248
00:21:03,360 --> 00:21:05,640
< When will his wife and children
see him?

249
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,440
Once more, madam. Never.

250
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,800
Come, Edward, all this you know.

251
00:21:14,360 --> 00:21:15,960
Stand out of my way.

252
00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:22,000
Did you order the murder
of Thomas Rainsborough?

253
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,800
Sexby, no!

254
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,120
He is unwell, my Lord.
His brain is hot, he is sick,

255
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,600
he is ever your Lordship's
loving servant.

256
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,480
Hurt not a hair on his head. >

257
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,120
He was a brother to me.

258
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,760
Take him to the coast
and put him out of England.

259
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,400
Sexby, if you return ever,
I will have you hanged.

260
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,040
Away. >

261
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,240
Farewell, Madam. Settle all accounts.

262
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,880
Sexby!

263
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:58,480
Pray you, let me go with him.
He is all I have left now.

264
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,040
Let him go, madam,
from whence he came.

265
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,560
There is fighting in the Low
Countries. He will find wages there.

266
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,800
Edward was never happy
except he was cutting throats.

267
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,320
He is not for you.

268
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,320
Why do you dally? Where's my wine?

269
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,960
I came with what speed I could, sir.

270
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,160
Are you impatient?

271
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,800
Truly this day has been
a long while in the coming.

272
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,720
Hah!

273
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,600
Well, the Whore is a man again.

274
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:51,240
You are an abomination in the
eyes of God and of all godly men.

275
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,880
Why have you persecuted me, sirrah?

276
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,840
Because you are the age, madam.

277
00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,280
Weak, womanish, lustful...

278
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,120
and not a one of you
knows where you should be. >

279
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,240
Where should we be?

280
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,680
You, madam, should be dead.

281
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,040
I watched you hang.

282
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,120
I saw your pretty ankles
kicking at the clouds.

283
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,400
Would I had pulled the rope myself.

284
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,240
Then I would be a phantom.

285
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,440
And phantoms cannot harm us.

286
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,000
< But, sir,
I am not your crippled imaginings.

287
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,440
I am flesh and blood.

288
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,600
Speak not of Edward Sexby, I beg
of you. He is gone and that is flat.

289
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,840
Elizabeth Lilburne
will not kneel before you

290
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,200
because her husband forbade
her ever ask a favour of the tyrant.

291
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:28,960
But I kneel on her behalf.

292
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,680
Walk with me.

293
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,080
I never looked for ought of this.

294
00:25:40,120 --> 00:25:42,840
I was just a farmer.

295
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,600
God showed me the way
to lead men in battle.

296
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,000
I never thought to have
the nation's care in my...

297
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,000
weak sinner's hands.

298
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,560
Will you eat a simple
supper with me, Angelica?

299
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:02,880
So have you forgiven me?

300
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:05,960
For what?

301
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,160
I took a husband from you.

302
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,960
You took two.

303
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,720
When you sent Thomas Rainsborough
to Pontefract, it was to cut

304
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,200
the head off the Levellers,
was it not?

305
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:23,640
Aye, it was.

306
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,920
Did you strike him down, Oliver?

307
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,880
I would have...
faced him in the field.

308
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,640
I would have...

309
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,040
..killed him there, with God's help.

310
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,440
He was murdered
by the Cavaliers, Angelica,

311
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,440
as God is my witness.

312
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,400
And if he had killed
you in the field?

313
00:26:58,440 --> 00:26:59,920
A different England.

314
00:26:59,960 --> 00:27:02,400
If Thomas sat here now,
instead of Oliver,

315
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,120
what would be different?

316
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:06,680
With Thomas and freedom.

317
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,200
Oliver and tyranny?

318
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,960
Oliver and order,

319
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,840
Thomas...

320
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,280
and convulsion.

321
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,080
Then if convulsion, then famine.

322
00:27:19,120 --> 00:27:21,560
If famine then where is the freedom?

323
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,880
Where is freedom for Honest John?

324
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,880
Each new day brings another plot
to assassinate me

325
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,280
and bring us closer to anarchy
and terror.

326
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,360
In times like this...

327
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:43,560
some of the freedoms we
fought for must be sacrificed.

328
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:48,160
There is nothing that now stands
between us and utter destruction,

329
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,680
but me.

330
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,080
Almighty God chose me,

331
00:27:55,120 --> 00:27:58,720
not Thomas Rainsborough nor
any one else. He chose me.

332
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,280
And he chooses the path
I must now follow.

333
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,120
I would have your understanding of
what I must now give to the nation.

334
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,040
Which is what?

335
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,800
They will never be settled
until they have a King again.

336
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,640
And what is the word "King" but
a bauble, it's a feather in the cap.

337
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,760
Well, why not in mine?

338
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,160
I thought Honest John had lost
his senses

339
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,040
when he told us this day would come.

340
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,480
So did I, madam.

341
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,000
Well, then...

342
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:46,960
King Oliver I.

343
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,720
And England will have another King,
chosen by God.

344
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,600
Was so much blood spilt
for so little?

345
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,640
I came to petition you
for Elizabeth Lilburne.

346
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,000
What is your answer, my Lord?

347
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,720
Your petitions are granted.

348
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,280
She shall have a pension.
She may visit the island.

349
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:30,760
Angelica.

350
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,280
Prepare Elizabeth.

351
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,200
Freeborn John Lilburne is...

352
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,320
broken in pieces.

353
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,280
Fare you well, Oliver.

354
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,880
We shall never meet again.

355
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,120
What?
Shall Honest John Lilburne die?

356
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,320
Six and 60,000 will
know the reason why!

357
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,680
But where are the six and 60,000?

358
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,760
Not here. Nowhere.

359
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:23,760
Nowhere.

360
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,960
Empty words

361
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,080
spoken in another world.

362
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:55,760
John?

363
00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,880
John?

364
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:11,320
The Tyrant commanded I should
die with no further sight of you.

365
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,280
How can you be here?

366
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,080
It matters not how, John.

367
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,600
We are here.

368
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:28,760
Do you bring me pen and ink?

369
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,400
No, John.

370
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,880
I bring you what is better.

371
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,160
A first sight of your son, Benomy.

372
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,560
How here?

373
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,960
The Tyrant will free me?

374
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,840
No, John.

375
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,360
Angelica!

376
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,360
Here is your son, sir.

377
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,440
If he frees me not,

378
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,400
then by what means
are you come here?

379
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,000
He is ill. Take the boy.

380
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,680
Come here, boy.

381
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,600
Behold!
Behold your abandoned father!

382
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,120
Did I not forbid that you
should ask the tyrant any favour?

383
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,560
I asked him, John.

384
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,880
I don't know who you are, madam.

385
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,280
I don't know this boy child.
I have no son.

386
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,200
I know only this.

387
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,120
The woman I formerly loved.

388
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:41,560
The woman that you "formerly loved",
gave her life without question

389
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,560
or complaint to a man
"In love with a crown of thorns"!

390
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,480
Think, sir,

391
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,000
what I might have been had I not
loved a man who each new day nailed

392
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,520
himself to the cross of freedom.

393
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,320
And where is that freedom now, sir?

394
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,600
And where was that freedom
ever for me?

395
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,600
John, I couldn't bring you
pen and paper.

396
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,280
I feared they might execute
you if you took up the pen.

397
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,200
I have feared that all our lives.

398
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,520
No matter now, Beth.

399
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,360
It was all mistaken.

400
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,240
What was mistaken, John?

401
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,800
To change the temporal world.

402
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,440
All that matters is
what waits for us.

403
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,120
Elizabeth, he knows not what he says.

404
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,600
Indeed I do, madam.

405
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,720
When I am free,
I will take up my cross.

406
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,320
I will crucify the pride in me.

407
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,040
I will tell Oliver do the same.

408
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,320
I cannot tell him.

409
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,760
Cannot tell me?

410
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,320
Cannot tell me what, madam?

411
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,120
Though he will call himself
Lord Protector still...

412
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,440
..Oliver is to be King.

413
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,440
Forgive me.

414
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:34,960
For what?

415
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,080
All.

416
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,840
Until the last of my days,

417
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,840
my proudest boast will ever be

418
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,800
that I was the wife
of Freeborn John Lilburne.

419
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,600
Bring him!

420
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:27,760
Hurry, sirs.

421
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,200
Put him in.

422
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:42,040
Here lies Freeborn...

423
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:43,680
No speeches.

424
00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:46,280
I will be damned
before I will let you silence her!

425
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,200
This is my land you're standing on.

426
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:49,960
Madam, I was told no speeches.

427
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,640
To your work, sirs.

428
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,160
And you to your homes.

429
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,200
I thought I had lost you.

430
00:37:01,240 --> 00:37:03,720
Not yet.

431
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,880
Good sir.

432
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:15,720
When the world began its turning,
I little thought I would be turned

433
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,880
so utterly.

434
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,320
Nor I.

435
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,320
Come.

436
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,800
Mistress mine.

437
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:18,760
First peep.

438
00:38:21,240 --> 00:38:23,160
The dark is clearing...

439
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,840
..like mist uprising
from the water land where I began.

440
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,400
Jack has his Jill.

441
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:43,480
Then naught shall go ill.

442
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,800
Sexby, why have you come back?

443
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,360
To kill the King.

444
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,360
Every schoolboy will learn
the name of Edward Sexby.

445
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,560
That he set England
free of its chains.

446
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,080
And I will be free.

447
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,000
What is it you look for?

448
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:26,880
Nothing, madam.

449
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,200
But I swear on my life
that I do love thee.

450
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:39,640
Then give this up...

451
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,680
..and come with me to the New World.

452
00:39:48,240 --> 00:39:51,120
You must have the life you choose.

453
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,640
I fear my ending will not be yours.

454
00:39:56,240 --> 00:39:57,800
Must all end in blood?

455
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,040
Aye...

456
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,600
..all must end in blood.

457
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,360
One week hence,

458
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,520
on the day of Oliver's glory,
wait for me at the sea.

459
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,440
If the parish bells
welcome England's new King,

460
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,280
think not to see me again.

461
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,320
I will not be given to the butchers.

462
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,280
That day will shake
the world, madam.

463
00:40:41,240 --> 00:40:43,840
And all the blood will
not have been in vain.

464
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,600
Do you know me, Angelica?

465
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,000
Aye, Edward.

466
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,640
You are yourself.

467
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,600
There are many now among us who
see him as a traitor and a tyrant.

468
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,560
He will get the nation's thanks,
if he does this.

469
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,360
This is your place, sir.

470
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,880
Here I will make my horse seem lame.

471
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:46,560
His carriage will have to stop.

472
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,080
Good morrow to you.

473
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,800
Good morrow, Your Highness.

474
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,280
Nay.

475
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,600
Let me be Old Noll a few hours more.

476
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:38,640
Toop?

477
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,160
Today you ride before me.

478
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,560
I recall a time I rode before you,
do you remember?

479
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,680
At Kineton fight, My Lord.

480
00:42:47,720 --> 00:42:50,200
It was a brave fight.

481
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,440
Aye, My Lord.

482
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,200
I remember.

483
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:04,280
I remember you well.

484
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:10,520
Did you not fight near me when we
saved Honest John and his dragoon?

485
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,040
Very near, My Lord.

486
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,760
Do you remember Free Born John?
How he fought...

487
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,960
until he was one heartbeat
away from paradise.

488
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,800
I robbed him of a martyr's death

489
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,400
and he never forgave me.

490
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:34,760
I remember John Lilburne
every night in my prayers, My Lord.

491
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,000
As do I, Toop.

492
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,520
Did you ever think
this day would come?

493
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:54,800
No...

494
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:56,840
My Lord, I did not.

495
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:25,440
Cromwell comes!

496
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,200
Clear a way for the Lord Protector!

497
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,000
My Lord, I cannot let you
proceed any further.

498
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:36,240
God save the Lord Protector!

499
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:43,960
Long live his Highness!
God save the Lord Protector!

500
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,400
God save the Lord Protector!

501
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:31,280
'On the day Sexby died,

Oh, Lord...

506

Give them consistency of judgment.

507

Our father...

508
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,200
One heart.

509
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,240
