1
00:00:36,036 --> 00:00:39,206
<i>If London was to be</i>
<i>a new start for me,</i>

2
00:00:39,373 --> 00:00:42,292
<i>I would push</i>
<i>all thoughts of poetry...</i>

3
00:00:43,126 --> 00:00:44,962
<i>and love aside.</i>

4
00:00:48,173 --> 00:00:49,967
<i>Mother warned me of the dirt,</i>

5
00:00:50,551 --> 00:00:53,804
<i>disease, and despair</i>
<i>that could be found here.</i>

6
00:00:54,846 --> 00:00:58,725
<i>She failed to mention...</i>
<i>the breadth of humanity.</i>

7
00:01:00,561 --> 00:01:03,063
<i>And the anonymity</i>
<i>of the city suited me well.</i>

8
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:07,526
<i>I had taken to walking</i>
<i>the city's beautiful parks.</i>

9
00:01:09,403 --> 00:01:11,822
<i>It seemed that all life</i>
<i>was in London.</i>

10
00:01:13,615 --> 00:01:16,201
<i>And here I could be</i>
<i>anything I wanted.</i>

11
00:01:23,584 --> 00:01:28,505
<i>Surely I would find something I could</i>
<i>succeed at in this vast, inspiring city.</i>

12
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,469
-Now, where did I put it?
-How should I know?

13
00:01:34,636 --> 00:01:36,805
She breaks my heart a little.

14
00:01:37,514 --> 00:01:39,600
She seems so awkward in herself.

15
00:01:39,766 --> 00:01:42,769
I worry my sister's
caused some harm to poor Mary.

16
00:01:43,312 --> 00:01:44,730
Oh, I wonder?

17
00:01:45,147 --> 00:01:47,316
She's perhaps not
the most natural governess.

18
00:01:47,941 --> 00:01:49,818
What else
can she do with life?

19
00:01:50,235 --> 00:01:51,862
Be her mother's companion?

20
00:01:52,195 --> 00:01:53,488
I thought Tom
brought her out of herself,

21
00:01:54,489 --> 00:01:56,158
kind-hearted man that he is.

22
00:01:56,408 --> 00:01:59,494
And she seemed to get on well
with Ann Baxter the other evening.

23
00:01:59,661 --> 00:02:02,289
-But she has so little confidence.
-Yes.

24
00:02:02,831 --> 00:02:05,709
It can't have been easy growing up
in the shadow of her sisters.

25
00:02:07,044 --> 00:02:08,879
-Found it.
-There it is.

26
00:02:09,963 --> 00:02:11,506
Well, I'm happy she's with us.

27
00:02:11,882 --> 00:02:14,426
She has an interesting
and enquiring mind.

28
00:02:18,472 --> 00:02:19,973
Miss Bennet.

29
00:02:21,308 --> 00:02:22,934
-Mr. Hayward.
-Yes.

30
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:27,230
How are you? I'm eager to hear how
you've been getting on with the poetry.

31
00:02:27,856 --> 00:02:29,024
Well...

32
00:02:30,233 --> 00:02:32,027
I'm not sure I have the mind
to appreciate it completely.

33
00:02:32,486 --> 00:02:33,820
I keep hoping
Mr. Coleridge will...

34
00:02:33,987 --> 00:02:35,572
will explain himself, or that...

35
00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:38,075
Mr. Wordsworth will say
what he really means.

36
00:02:38,241 --> 00:02:41,244
But... they seem to enjoy
keeping their secrets.

37
00:02:41,620 --> 00:02:42,579
They...

38
00:02:43,497 --> 00:02:45,707
Well, do not blame yourself.

39
00:02:45,874 --> 00:02:48,335
I think some poets enjoy
being difficult to understand.

40
00:02:58,470 --> 00:03:01,431
Miss Bennet, I was so sorry
to hear about your father.

41
00:03:02,641 --> 00:03:05,268
Moving to the city
without your family,

42
00:03:05,686 --> 00:03:08,438
you not having your mother
to confide in, or your sister...

43
00:03:08,605 --> 00:03:09,773
It's a relief to be without her.

44
00:03:09,940 --> 00:03:11,942
In fact, it's something of a relief
to be without any of them.

45
00:03:19,616 --> 00:03:21,660
I'm sorry you're not feeling yourself.

46
00:03:24,621 --> 00:03:25,831
I'm afraid I'm not.

47
00:03:26,748 --> 00:03:29,292
I'm just not finding my place here
as easily as I thought.

48
00:03:30,502 --> 00:03:31,795
I'm sorry, please excuse me.

49
00:03:31,962 --> 00:03:33,046
Oh, Mary!

50
00:03:33,213 --> 00:03:35,632
Tom! How lovely to see you.

51
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:36,800
Quietly, my dear,

52
00:03:36,967 --> 00:03:40,679
you'll summon the children, who I fear
have begun to associate Tom's name

53
00:03:40,846 --> 00:03:42,347
with a worryingly
large bag of sugar plums.

54
00:03:43,265 --> 00:03:46,017
Please excuse me.
Sorry. I'm sorry.

55
00:04:09,249 --> 00:04:10,459
<i>My dear Mary,</i>

56
00:04:10,959 --> 00:04:14,921
<i>I fear your correspondence</i>
<i>has not been reaching me.</i>

57
00:04:15,714 --> 00:04:18,216
<i>I have heard nothing</i>
<i>from you at all.</i>

58
00:04:20,552 --> 00:04:22,721
<i>How are you managing your duties?</i>

59
00:04:23,138 --> 00:04:24,639
<i>You never were good</i>
<i>with children,</i>

60
00:04:25,307 --> 00:04:27,058
<i>even when you were one yourself.</i>

61
00:04:29,019 --> 00:04:31,772
<i>I may require you</i>
<i>to return to Pemberley,</i>

62
00:04:32,272 --> 00:04:33,857
<i>where I will be spending the summer.</i>

63
00:04:37,027 --> 00:04:39,446
<i>Lizzy has expressed</i>
<i>a wish to see you.</i>

64
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:43,492
<i>But more urgently,</i>
<i>my new puppy has a nervous air</i>

65
00:04:43,658 --> 00:04:46,828
<i>and requires near-constant</i>
<i>companionship.</i>

66
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:55,170
<i>I had come to London to see the world</i>
<i>outside of my family,</i>

67
00:04:55,337 --> 00:04:57,631
<i>and that is what I would do.</i>

68
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:05,722
Oh, Mary, you're painting.

69
00:05:06,515 --> 00:05:07,599
To teach the children.

70
00:05:07,766 --> 00:05:10,936
How marvellous to see
your imagination at play.

71
00:05:14,940 --> 00:05:15,941
It's terrible.

72
00:05:16,650 --> 00:05:17,692
No, no. It's...

73
00:05:19,277 --> 00:05:20,612
it's very neat.

74
00:05:22,405 --> 00:05:24,282
Did you see the letter
from your mother?

75
00:05:26,034 --> 00:05:26,993
Is she well?

76
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,121
Between several complaints
about the damp,

77
00:05:30,288 --> 00:05:31,706
the unseasonable pollen,

78
00:05:31,915 --> 00:05:34,918
and an unpleasant exchange
with a rude shopkeeper,

79
00:05:35,085 --> 00:05:36,169
I understand that she is. Yes.

80
00:05:37,170 --> 00:05:39,297
I honestly think
she enjoys such encounters.

81
00:05:39,965 --> 00:05:41,800
It makes her feel more alive.

82
00:05:43,426 --> 00:05:46,304
Now, speaking of encounters,

83
00:05:46,471 --> 00:05:48,515
I think this might be
of interest to you.

84
00:05:49,224 --> 00:05:52,602
Tom made a strange request
to Mr. Gardiner and I

85
00:05:52,769 --> 00:05:55,021
and extended the invitation
to you too, Mary.

86
00:05:55,605 --> 00:05:58,024
Yes. He was most mysterious.

87
00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:01,611
He wants us to meet him
tomorrow morning

88
00:06:01,903 --> 00:06:05,532
where he says he plans to
"break through our rational reserve

89
00:06:05,699 --> 00:06:07,075
"and move our hearts

90
00:06:07,617 --> 00:06:08,702
"as well as our heads."

91
00:06:08,952 --> 00:06:10,370
-He does?
-Yes.

92
00:06:10,537 --> 00:06:12,205
Whatever that might entail.

93
00:06:14,457 --> 00:06:17,752
-I must work on my lesson plans.
-Oh, Mary, you must join us.

94
00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:19,421
For my sake?

95
00:06:20,922 --> 00:06:21,882
Please consider it.

96
00:07:16,102 --> 00:07:18,480
Easy.

97
00:07:21,816 --> 00:07:23,026
Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner.

98
00:07:23,818 --> 00:07:26,738
Miss Bennet,
thank you for humouring me.

99
00:07:26,905 --> 00:07:28,907
Are we allowed to know
the purpose of our visit?

100
00:07:29,074 --> 00:07:33,036
I have conspired with the city of London
and William Wordsworth himself

101
00:07:33,203 --> 00:07:35,497
for a morning recital
unlike any other.

102
00:07:36,206 --> 00:07:37,916
-In a hidden garden.
-Good Lord.

103
00:07:38,124 --> 00:07:39,751
Will Miss Baxter be joining us?

104
00:07:40,210 --> 00:07:42,379
I'm afraid Miss Baxter
has a variety of excuses

105
00:07:42,545 --> 00:07:46,216
that she skilfully deploys
to avoid such events.

106
00:07:46,383 --> 00:07:48,051
Well, remind me
to ask her what they are.

107
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:52,764
Yes, I am afraid that my petitions
for good weather have been in vain.

108
00:07:52,931 --> 00:07:54,099
No matter.

109
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:57,519
We will not be dissuaded
by a little drizzle.

110
00:07:58,979 --> 00:08:00,522
A little drizzle?

111
00:08:03,692 --> 00:08:04,651
Just down there.

112
00:08:11,533 --> 00:08:13,284
-This way?
-Yes.

113
00:08:31,052 --> 00:08:32,178
It's magical.

114
00:08:39,686 --> 00:08:41,688
Please forgive the theatrics.

115
00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:44,441
I had given Miss Bennet
the impossible task

116
00:08:45,025 --> 00:08:48,570
of understanding poetry without
any real sense of how to...

117
00:08:49,112 --> 00:08:50,071
feel it.

118
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,701
Sometimes, with poetry,

119
00:08:56,077 --> 00:08:57,412
the more I think,

120
00:08:57,954 --> 00:08:59,289
the less I understand.

121
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,633
"Earth has not any thing
To show more fair

122
00:09:12,594 --> 00:09:15,764
"Dull would he be of soul
Who could pass by

123
00:09:15,930 --> 00:09:19,184
"A sight so touching
In its majesty

124
00:09:20,769 --> 00:09:23,104
"This City now doth

125
00:09:24,314 --> 00:09:27,400
"Like a garment, wear
The beauty of the morning

126
00:09:29,110 --> 00:09:30,111
"Silent,

127
00:09:31,029 --> 00:09:31,988
"bare

128
00:09:34,157 --> 00:09:38,620
"Ships, towers, domes

129
00:09:39,287 --> 00:09:41,039
"Theatres, and temples lie

130
00:09:41,206 --> 00:09:42,707
"Open unto the fields

131
00:09:43,833 --> 00:09:45,251
"And to the sky

132
00:09:47,712 --> 00:09:51,424
"All bright and glittering
In the smokeless air

133
00:09:52,967 --> 00:09:55,470
"Never did sun
More beautifully steep

134
00:09:55,637 --> 00:09:57,472
"In his first splendour

135
00:09:58,264 --> 00:10:01,351
"Valley, rock, or hill

00:10:02,143 --> 00:10:06,731
"Ne'er saw I, never felt
A calm so deep!

137
00:10:08,650 --> 00:10:11,277
"The river glideth
At his own sweet will

138
00:10:14,030 --> 00:10:14,989
"Dear God!

139
00:10:15,824 --> 00:10:17,659
"The very houses seem asleep

140
00:10:20,495 --> 00:10:23,373
"And all that mighty heart
Is lying still!"

141
00:10:35,885 --> 00:10:37,720
Well done, Tom.

142
00:10:37,887 --> 00:10:39,639
A moving rendition.

143
00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:44,769
Tom, I confess I felt entirely transported
by the force of your words.

144
00:10:45,645 --> 00:10:47,897
And what a beautiful place.

145
00:10:48,857 --> 00:10:51,151
Our wisteria never flowers like this.

146
00:10:51,359 --> 00:10:54,821
Yes, your ability to kill our plants
seems to be second to none.

147
00:10:54,988 --> 00:10:56,656
Come, let's take a turn.

148
00:10:57,282 --> 00:10:58,324
Indeed.

149
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,495
Goodness, Edward,
this place is magical.

150
00:11:03,329 --> 00:11:04,873
-It's like a secret garden.
-Yes, it is...

151
00:11:13,631 --> 00:11:15,300
Well, Miss Bennet.

152
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:19,762
How do you feel?

153
00:11:19,929 --> 00:11:21,097
I...

154
00:11:23,266 --> 00:11:24,601
Well...

155
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:27,478
for once, I have nothing
to say.

156
00:11:27,645 --> 00:11:29,647
-I am sorry to hear that.
-No, I...

157
00:11:31,024 --> 00:11:32,317
No, I wish to say something...

158
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,154
...inspiring. But I...

159
00:11:38,031 --> 00:11:39,115
do not know how.

160
00:11:40,617 --> 00:11:41,784
You have such...

161
00:11:43,036 --> 00:11:45,121
such varied ways
to express your feelings.

162
00:11:45,288 --> 00:11:46,414
Mine feel...

163
00:11:47,707 --> 00:11:48,958
frozen, or...

164
00:11:50,668 --> 00:11:51,628
feeble, or...

165
00:11:53,963 --> 00:11:55,215
entirely unknowable.

166
00:11:56,257 --> 00:11:57,884
I do not know, Miss Bennet.

167
00:11:59,177 --> 00:12:01,179
Well, I used the words of others

168
00:12:02,055 --> 00:12:04,140
to... puzzle through things
I do not understand.

169
00:12:06,059 --> 00:12:10,438
But I do not believe that you are
truly a stranger to strong emotions.

170
00:12:20,323 --> 00:12:21,282
Forgive me.

171
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,079
-Sorry, Miss Bennet, I...
-No.

172
00:12:26,788 --> 00:12:28,039
It was just a petal.

173
00:12:28,206 --> 00:12:31,292
Mr. Hayward,
I think I must leave London.

174
00:12:33,211 --> 00:12:35,380
But... you've only just arrived.

175
00:12:35,505 --> 00:12:38,508
It's no great event.
My mother needs a companion.

176
00:12:39,133 --> 00:12:40,260
I see.

177
00:12:40,426 --> 00:12:41,719
And well, you will likely be...

178
00:12:42,804 --> 00:12:44,389
very busy soon,

179
00:12:44,555 --> 00:12:47,558
what with social engagements and...

180
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:51,020
Miss Baxter.

181
00:12:52,605 --> 00:12:53,564
-Right.

182
00:12:53,731 --> 00:12:55,400
I'm sure you'll scarcely
have time to notice I'm gone.

183
00:12:58,027 --> 00:13:00,238
Well, I'd hoped that this
would restore your spirits.

184
00:13:00,405 --> 00:13:01,698
indeed it did.

185
00:13:02,740 --> 00:13:03,825
It did. Thank you.

186
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:06,411
I shall never forget it.

187
00:13:22,010 --> 00:13:24,178
I shall travel
to Pemberley on the 18th.

188
00:13:25,054 --> 00:13:26,139
Good heavens.

189
00:13:26,723 --> 00:13:29,892
-Mary, this is quite unexpected.
-Well, is anything the matter?

190
00:13:30,893 --> 00:13:32,228
My mother needs me.

191
00:13:33,354 --> 00:13:34,689
Is my sister bored?

192
00:13:36,024 --> 00:13:38,109
I know that she's more likely
than anyone in England

193
00:13:38,276 --> 00:13:40,028
to summon the troops
on account of her loneliness.

194
00:13:40,194 --> 00:13:41,946
But must you answer the call?

195
00:13:45,408 --> 00:13:46,659
I think I must.

196
00:13:47,285 --> 00:13:49,704
Well, we so enjoy
having you here.

197
00:13:49,871 --> 00:13:51,706
The children
will be disappointed.

198
00:13:52,415 --> 00:13:54,417
That is kind of you to say.

199
00:13:56,502 --> 00:13:57,545
It is the truth.

200
00:14:01,507 --> 00:14:02,925
I must plan today's lessons.

201
00:14:12,393 --> 00:14:13,478
<i>Dearest Mother...</i>

202
00:14:14,687 --> 00:14:18,649
<i>although my time in London</i>
<i>has been... enlightening,</i>

203
00:14:19,484 --> 00:14:22,862
<i>I will be by your side</i>
<i>for your summer at Pemberley...</i>

204
00:14:24,447 --> 00:14:25,782
<i>...as requested.</i>

205
00:14:27,617 --> 00:14:31,162
<i>I am grateful for the generosity</i>
<i>extended by my aunt and uncle,</i>

206
00:14:31,329 --> 00:14:35,333
<i>but as you rightly point out,</i>
<i>I do not wish to burden them.</i>

207
00:14:36,417 --> 00:14:37,877
<i>And it will, of course, be...</i>

208
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:39,921
<i>an honour?</i>

209
00:14:40,588 --> 00:14:42,465
<i>To look after your new pup.</i>

210
00:14:56,020 --> 00:14:57,480
-Good day, sir.
-Good day.

211
00:15:04,946 --> 00:15:06,030
Do come in.

212
00:15:23,297 --> 00:15:25,466
"There was an old woman
Who lived in a shoe

213
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,223
"She had so many children
She didn't know what to do

214
00:15:34,267 --> 00:15:35,685
"She gave them some broth

215
00:15:36,269 --> 00:15:37,520
"Without any bread

216
00:15:37,687 --> 00:15:40,356
"And she whipped them all soundly
And put them to bed"

217
00:15:41,732 --> 00:15:43,985
That poem started very well

218
00:15:44,152 --> 00:15:46,028
and ended very badly.

219
00:15:46,195 --> 00:15:47,738
A good observation,
Miss Marianne.

220
00:15:48,739 --> 00:15:52,285
Why didn't she just move into a boot
when the children got too many?

221
00:15:52,452 --> 00:15:53,911
A fine suggestion, Miss Rebecca.

222
00:15:54,078 --> 00:15:56,456
<i>Is the Glorious Revolution</i>
<i>all finished, then, Miss Bennet?</i>

223
00:15:58,124 --> 00:16:01,586
This week, we will write
and perform a poem instead.

224
00:16:02,044 --> 00:16:03,087
Yes!

225
00:16:04,422 --> 00:16:07,592
I want to do a poem about myself
because I'm quite interesting.

226
00:16:09,010 --> 00:16:10,094
I'll do typhoid.

227
00:16:10,595 --> 00:16:11,721
Or frogs.

228
00:16:12,138 --> 00:16:13,431
Disgusting.

229
00:16:15,558 --> 00:16:16,601
Miss Marianne?

230
00:16:17,768 --> 00:16:18,728
Love.

231
00:16:30,198 --> 00:16:33,826
<i>"The eye it cannot choose but see</i>

232
00:16:34,118 --> 00:16:37,038
<i>"We cannot bid the ear be still</i>

233
00:16:37,663 --> 00:16:40,374
<i>"Our bodies feel</i>
<i>Where'er they be</i>

234
00:16:41,542 --> 00:16:44,712
<i>"Against or with our will"</i>

235
00:16:51,719 --> 00:16:54,430
"A big green frog
Sat on a log

236
00:16:55,306 --> 00:16:56,849
"The frog was quite full

237
00:16:57,642 --> 00:17:01,437
"It had eaten
Ten flies, two slugs

238
00:17:02,063 --> 00:17:05,858
"One worm
And three lily pad pies"

239
00:17:07,068 --> 00:17:09,320
-Bravo.
-Bravo, Miss Rebecca.

240
00:17:09,487 --> 00:17:14,033
Miss Bennet, you were obviously
inspired by our morning poetry reading.

241
00:17:15,451 --> 00:17:16,452
I was. I know, I...

242
00:17:17,620 --> 00:17:18,996
Yes, I...

243
00:17:19,247 --> 00:17:21,666
-Oh, no!
-What is it, Miss Rebecca?

244
00:17:22,500 --> 00:17:24,835
I had a prop,
and I forgot to use it.

245
00:17:29,924 --> 00:17:32,760
Fear not.
A prop is a cheap trick

246
00:17:33,094 --> 00:17:34,887
that diminishes
the power of words.

247
00:17:35,471 --> 00:17:36,639
Indeed.

248
00:17:39,767 --> 00:17:40,810
Who's next?

249
00:17:44,564 --> 00:17:46,440
<i>I would be sad to leave London.</i>

250
00:17:47,358 --> 00:17:49,902
<i>It was the first time I'd ever felt</i>
<i>a sense of...</i>

251
00:17:50,528 --> 00:17:51,487
<i>belonging.</i>

252
00:17:53,781 --> 00:17:55,074
Oh, there you are.

253
00:17:55,575 --> 00:17:58,995
I wanted to say thank you
for such a wonderful day.

254
00:17:59,912 --> 00:18:02,456
The children will be inconsolable
about you leaving.

255
00:18:03,374 --> 00:18:05,626
Marianne is stitching you
a cushion.

256
00:18:06,252 --> 00:18:09,130
With an inspirational
Latin phrase, I believe.

257
00:18:09,297 --> 00:18:10,214
Oh, yes.

258
00:18:10,631 --> 00:18:12,717
<i>It's mori quam foedari.</i>

259
00:18:13,467 --> 00:18:15,011
Death before dishonour.

260
00:18:15,219 --> 00:18:16,887
Goodness. How exciting.

261
00:18:18,973 --> 00:18:20,600
We shall miss you, Mary.

262
00:18:21,767 --> 00:18:24,770
I think we both know
I'm not well suited to...

263
00:18:25,688 --> 00:18:27,398
London's liveliness.

264
00:18:28,232 --> 00:18:29,191
Oh, Mary,

265
00:18:30,234 --> 00:18:32,403
you've barely given it a chance.

266
00:18:33,446 --> 00:18:34,864
Things change.

267
00:18:35,698 --> 00:18:36,907
People...

268
00:18:37,992 --> 00:18:39,577
situations.

269
00:18:41,495 --> 00:18:42,622
Over time.

270
00:18:46,459 --> 00:18:48,544
May I venture something
on that subject?

271
00:18:51,505 --> 00:18:52,882
The other day...

272
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:54,925
I went to buy a bonnet.

273
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:57,637
And in the first shop
I went into,

274
00:18:58,512 --> 00:19:01,182
found a stunning bonnet.
An elegant blue.

275
00:19:01,349 --> 00:19:03,559
Quite lovely on me,
if I dare say such a thing.

276
00:19:04,727 --> 00:19:06,520
When I went to purchase it,

277
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,484
it had been reserved
for someone else.

278
00:19:13,903 --> 00:19:15,154
I went into another shop

279
00:19:15,446 --> 00:19:19,575
and found not four other bonnets
I liked just as much.

280
00:19:19,742 --> 00:19:20,701
And in the end,

281
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:28,000
one a shade of dusky pink
that suited me even more.

282
00:19:31,420 --> 00:19:32,838
Do you see what I'm saying?

283
00:19:36,133 --> 00:19:37,802
Blue is not your colour?

284
00:19:39,845 --> 00:19:42,515
No, I'm saying that London
has such a variety of choices

285
00:19:42,682 --> 00:19:44,767
and such quantity, too.

286
00:19:45,476 --> 00:19:47,812
You may enjoy the first thing
you see well enough.

287
00:19:49,063 --> 00:19:50,356
But often

288
00:19:50,773 --> 00:19:53,150
something more
exciting will come along.

289
00:19:54,652 --> 00:19:55,611
Anyway.

290
00:19:56,112 --> 00:19:57,154
I just thought I'd let you know.

291
00:19:58,030 --> 00:20:00,491
Well, yes, thank you for that.

292
00:20:00,658 --> 00:20:03,786
It was very... interesting.

293
00:20:03,953 --> 00:20:05,663
I was meaning to tell you.

294
00:20:06,247 --> 00:20:09,041
We have decided to host
a little entertainment tomorrow.

295
00:20:09,583 --> 00:20:11,752
-A night of games.
-Oh, dear.

296
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:14,839
-What sort of games?
-No catching.

297
00:20:15,005 --> 00:20:17,508
Word games, riddles and such.

298
00:20:17,675 --> 00:20:19,135
And very pleasant company.

299
00:20:19,593 --> 00:20:22,847
Company I know?
Or new company?

300
00:20:23,597 --> 00:20:24,849
All new.

301
00:20:25,266 --> 00:20:26,517
And very friendly.

302
00:20:27,601 --> 00:20:28,853
We desperately desire

303
00:20:29,019 --> 00:20:30,771
that you remember London fondly.

304
00:20:32,398 --> 00:20:35,276
This may be your final event
with us before you leave.

305
00:20:40,156 --> 00:20:43,242
<i>I resolved not to send the letter</i>
<i>to mother just yet.</i>

306
00:20:45,327 --> 00:20:47,997
<i>It would be a shame to leave</i>
<i>before the weekend.</i>

307
00:21:27,453 --> 00:21:30,414
-Sorry, I didn't realise there was a line.
-No, please.

308
00:21:30,581 --> 00:21:33,709
I wish more people had such
a restrained relationship to punch.

309
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:36,879
May I?

310
00:21:37,046 --> 00:21:38,088
Yes, of course.

311
00:21:39,131 --> 00:21:40,382
Noble defender of the punch.

312
00:21:41,008 --> 00:21:42,635
I surrender my post.

313
00:21:46,013 --> 00:21:46,972
And what brings you here?

314
00:21:47,473 --> 00:21:48,974
The word games or the company?

315
00:21:49,975 --> 00:21:50,935
I like words.

316
00:21:51,727 --> 00:21:53,562
I'm not much for games.

317
00:21:54,772 --> 00:21:57,525
Then it is the company
you've come for, Miss...

318
00:21:58,150 --> 00:21:59,819
Bennet. Mary Bennet.

319
00:22:01,111 --> 00:22:02,238
William Ryder.

320
00:22:03,072 --> 00:22:05,157
And where have you come from,
Miss Bennet?

321
00:22:05,616 --> 00:22:08,536
Surely I would've remembered seeing you
near punch bowls across London.

322
00:22:09,620 --> 00:22:10,746
I am...

323
00:22:12,164 --> 00:22:13,123
new in town.

324
00:22:13,415 --> 00:22:14,667
Well,

325
00:22:15,376 --> 00:22:18,045
I, for one, am always pleased
to see a new face.

326
00:22:21,966 --> 00:22:24,051
Now, please gather.
Take your seats.

327
00:22:24,218 --> 00:22:26,554
I see the riddles
are about to commence.

328
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,223
We are wise
to begin with full glasses.

329
00:22:37,648 --> 00:22:39,942
And now, the quickfire round.

330
00:22:40,484 --> 00:22:42,570
Two words, one answer.

331
00:22:43,279 --> 00:22:44,655
Counterfeit agony.

332
00:22:45,155 --> 00:22:46,949
Counterfeit agony?

333
00:22:47,449 --> 00:22:49,702
-A mean trick?
-My brain is in agony.

334
00:22:49,869 --> 00:22:51,453
And it isn't counterfeit.
It is quite real.

335
00:22:52,037 --> 00:22:54,206
Sham. Pain.

336
00:22:54,373 --> 00:22:55,332
Champagne.

337
00:22:55,833 --> 00:22:56,876
-Champagne!
-Bravo.

338
00:22:57,042 --> 00:22:58,168
Quite right,
Miss Clarke.

339
00:22:58,335 --> 00:23:01,338
Another point to you
and our new leader.

340
00:23:02,464 --> 00:23:05,467
Fancy delivering us champagne
in word and not in glass.

341
00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:07,011
You tease us, Mr. Gardiner.

342
00:23:07,177 --> 00:23:09,555
All right, then, Mr. Ryder.
Here's one for you.

343
00:23:11,390 --> 00:23:12,641
Judy's Fellow.

344
00:23:17,229 --> 00:23:18,397
My God! I know it.

345
00:23:20,065 --> 00:23:23,152
-Punch!
-Well done, Mr. Ryder.

346
00:23:23,319 --> 00:23:26,238
Finally, you've arrived
on the scoreboard.

347
00:23:30,784 --> 00:23:35,414
My first's a word
comedians dread to hear.

348
00:23:36,123 --> 00:23:40,127
My next, new life
in a revolving year.

349
00:23:40,586 --> 00:23:41,587
I'll repeat it.

350
00:23:42,046 --> 00:23:45,090
My first's a word
comedians dread to hear.

351
00:23:45,257 --> 00:23:48,928
My next, new life
in a revolving year.

352
00:23:49,136 --> 00:23:50,596
-Offspring!
-Yes!

353
00:23:50,763 --> 00:23:52,139
Well done, Miss Bennet!

354
00:23:53,515 --> 00:23:56,393
Well done. Bravo.

355
00:23:56,936 --> 00:23:58,646
Yes, Miss Bennet.

356
00:23:59,688 --> 00:24:01,482
-Cheers to you.
-What's next?

357
00:24:02,191 --> 00:24:05,027
-Take a mandarin. Delicious.
-Miss Bennet!

358
00:24:05,277 --> 00:24:07,112
-How lovely to see you.
-You too, Miss Baxter.

359
00:24:07,613 --> 00:24:08,906
-Mr. Hayward.
-Miss Bennet.

360
00:24:09,073 --> 00:24:10,574
We're so pleased you made it.

361
00:24:10,783 --> 00:24:13,410
I had false intelligence,
you were busy this evening.

362
00:24:13,577 --> 00:24:17,247
Well, we somehow managed to persuade
Mr. Hayward away from his work.

363
00:24:17,498 --> 00:24:19,458
Well, I have an important case.

364
00:24:19,625 --> 00:24:22,252
He has the terrible fortune
of being the only lawyer in London

365
00:24:22,419 --> 00:24:24,797
who exclusively
gets important cases.

366
00:24:26,298 --> 00:24:27,383
Do excuse us.

367
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,593
-Mrs. G...
-Excuse me.

368
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:32,680
Miss Bennet?

369
00:24:33,347 --> 00:24:34,348
-Tom!
-Will!

370
00:24:36,141 --> 00:24:37,810
Mr. Ryder and I studied law together.

371
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:43,023
Yes. Mr. Hayward is responsible
for my untimely retirement in the field.

372
00:24:43,482 --> 00:24:44,733
Is that so, Mr Ryder?

373
00:24:45,651 --> 00:24:46,986
He fed me so many poems,

374
00:24:47,152 --> 00:24:49,613
I believed myself
a deep, romantic soul.

375
00:24:49,780 --> 00:24:51,782
Too sensitive for the rigours of law.

376
00:24:51,949 --> 00:24:54,994
Seems like a heavy charge
to lay solely at the feet of poetry.

377
00:24:57,079 --> 00:24:58,664
Mary, how is the night
of games going?

378
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:02,209
Do we have any hope for making
a late charge for the prize?

379
00:25:02,501 --> 00:25:04,086
Not unless you wish to bribe our hosts.

380
00:25:04,253 --> 00:25:06,005
Miss Bennet here
is putting us all to shame.

381
00:25:06,171 --> 00:25:08,340
Oh, nonsense, Mr Ryder.
You beat me to the "punch".

382
00:25:09,550 --> 00:25:10,551
You see?

383
00:25:10,926 --> 00:25:12,344
-Masterful with words!
-I...

384
00:25:15,848 --> 00:25:19,476
Please gather yourselves
for the penultimate round.

385
00:25:19,643 --> 00:25:20,811
-Mr. Ryder.
-Right.

386
00:25:22,187 --> 00:25:26,025
I'm glad to see you're in better spirits,
Miss Bennet.

387
00:25:27,776 --> 00:25:30,446
This evening has been something
of a tonic, Mr. Hayward.

388
00:25:33,741 --> 00:25:34,700
Round three!

389
00:25:35,993 --> 00:25:36,994
Ready?

390
00:25:37,828 --> 00:25:38,996
-Sunday!
-Yes!

391
00:25:39,163 --> 00:25:40,914
-Well done. Bravo.
-A point to Miss Baxter!

392
00:25:44,043 --> 00:25:45,878
-Think sharp.
-Is... is it doldrums?

393
00:25:47,212 --> 00:25:48,589
No, no, no.
Forget I said anything.

394
00:25:49,089 --> 00:25:50,090
-Is it mercury?
-Yes!

395
00:25:50,257 --> 00:25:51,800
It is indeed.
Well done, Mary.

396
00:25:52,342 --> 00:25:53,469
Is it really?

397
00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:55,387
-Well done.
-How remarkable!

398
00:25:58,724 --> 00:25:59,767
Come on.

399
00:26:00,476 --> 00:26:01,810
-Anybody?
-Lighthouse!

400
00:26:03,062 --> 00:26:05,189
I barely had a chance to think,
let alone speak.

401
00:26:05,355 --> 00:26:07,816
I've never known a lack of thinking
to prevent you from speaking.

402
00:26:10,402 --> 00:26:12,196
That is five points apiece

403
00:26:13,072 --> 00:26:15,532
for Miss Clarke and Miss Bennet.

404
00:26:18,285 --> 00:26:19,328
Well done!

405
00:26:23,791 --> 00:26:24,792
The final round.

406
00:26:25,250 --> 00:26:27,169
The two players with the most points

407
00:26:27,336 --> 00:26:29,421
go head to head
to crack one final riddle

408
00:26:30,005 --> 00:26:31,131
and decide the winner.

409
00:26:31,507 --> 00:26:33,050
The leaders come as no surprise.

410
00:26:33,425 --> 00:26:34,593
Miss Clarke...

411
00:26:36,011 --> 00:26:37,012
and Miss Bennet.

412
00:26:37,888 --> 00:26:39,014
You mean I didn't make it?

413
00:26:39,890 --> 00:26:41,016
I'm astonished.

414
00:26:41,433 --> 00:26:42,976
Mrs. Gardiner,
would you do the honours?

415
00:26:46,188 --> 00:26:47,564
To suffer my second's

416
00:26:48,398 --> 00:26:50,192
the doom of my first,

417
00:26:50,984 --> 00:26:52,736
and of all of my seconds,

418
00:26:53,737 --> 00:26:56,115
my whole is the worst.

419
00:27:08,460 --> 00:27:09,419
A heartache!

420
00:27:11,088 --> 00:27:12,005
Yes!

421
00:27:12,548 --> 00:27:15,592
Good Lord!
She's Britain's finest mind!

422
00:27:17,761 --> 00:27:19,930
-Miss Bennet!
-Miss Bennet.

423
00:27:20,848 --> 00:27:22,850
We declare we have a winner.

424
00:27:23,100 --> 00:27:26,937
London's newest arrival,
but its fiercest competitor.

425
00:27:27,104 --> 00:27:29,148
Miss Mary Bennet!

426
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:32,442
Well done.

427
00:27:34,653 --> 00:27:38,323
I'm very glad that we arrived in time
to see you crowned, Miss Bennet.

428
00:27:38,782 --> 00:27:39,908
Thank you.

429
00:27:41,285 --> 00:27:42,661
I wanted to say.

430
00:27:42,828 --> 00:27:44,913
-I felt--
-Miss Bennet, you are a liar.

431
00:27:45,998 --> 00:27:46,957
Am I?

432
00:27:47,499 --> 00:27:50,002
You told me
you were not much for games.

433
00:27:50,169 --> 00:27:51,128
Well, I...

434
00:27:52,212 --> 00:27:54,298
I can't catch.
I can't.

435
00:27:55,465 --> 00:27:57,259
Miss Bennet, I've been meaning
to invite you to tea

436
00:27:57,426 --> 00:28:00,053
since I hear, very sadly,
you are leaving London?

437
00:28:00,220 --> 00:28:01,555
Miss Bennet, surely not.

438
00:28:01,930 --> 00:28:04,558
You can't deprive
the game players of London,

439
00:28:04,725 --> 00:28:06,101
your... your riddling talents.

440
00:28:06,768 --> 00:28:11,064
A round of applause
for our winner, Miss Bennet.

441
00:28:11,231 --> 00:28:12,482
Well done.

442
00:28:12,649 --> 00:28:14,109
-Bravo, Miss Bennet.
-Bravo.

443
00:28:14,276 --> 00:28:15,986
-Bravo.
-Bravo.

444
00:28:16,153 --> 00:28:17,112
<i>In that moment,</i>

445
00:28:17,821 --> 00:28:21,116
<i>I think I understood</i>
<i>what my aunt was telling me</i>

446
00:28:21,283 --> 00:28:23,869
<i>with the convoluted story</i>
<i>about the bonnets.</i>

447
00:28:27,623 --> 00:28:30,459
<i>That quantity has a quality</i>

448
00:28:31,460 --> 00:28:32,586
<i>all of its own.</i>

449
00:28:38,508 --> 00:28:40,135
-Thank you so much.
-I never doubted you.

450
00:28:42,054 --> 00:28:44,473
-This way.
-Thank you for coming.

451
00:28:47,643 --> 00:28:51,021
-Mary, how you shone.
-Thank you, Aunt.

452
00:28:51,188 --> 00:28:54,358
You even caught the attention
of the most eligible bachelor in town.

453
00:28:54,524 --> 00:28:56,109
I... I've been thinking.

454
00:28:56,276 --> 00:28:58,695
It seems a shame to leave London

455
00:28:58,862 --> 00:29:01,657
before I've, you know,
given it a fair chance.

456
00:29:02,491 --> 00:29:05,827
I think I might like to stay a little
while, if it's not too much burden.

457
00:29:06,536 --> 00:29:08,538
It's not a burden to us at all.

458
00:29:09,581 --> 00:29:11,458
We're delighted to have you with us.

459
00:29:15,170 --> 00:29:16,296
Oh, thank you so much for coming...

460
00:29:16,421 --> 00:29:20,008
<i>Living in London was helping me to see</i>
<i>that there could be more to life</i>

461
00:29:20,175 --> 00:29:22,010
<i>than just marriage or misery.</i>

462
00:29:23,303 --> 00:29:24,846
<i>Perhaps my aunt was right.</i>

463
00:29:26,056 --> 00:29:29,434
<i>Even the most hopeless</i>
<i>of situations,</i>

464
00:29:30,310 --> 00:29:32,145
<i>the most hopeless of people</i>

465
00:29:32,813 --> 00:29:35,232
<i>can, with kindness,</i>

466
00:29:35,941 --> 00:29:38,402
<i>change, little by little,</i>

467
00:29:39,361 --> 00:29:40,320
<i>over time.</i>

468
00:29:42,322 --> 00:29:46,159
<i>I was excited to discover</i>
<i>who Mary Bennet might be.</i>
