1
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:33,340
My apologies, ladies.

2
00:03:33,620 --> 00:03:35,060
A most unpleasant scene.

3
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,800
But I thought you should know the truth
about that man.

4
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,160
Mr Copperfield, I believe you did it for
her.

5
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:44,440
To save her.

6
00:03:45,340 --> 00:03:46,920
I hope she is saved, ma'am.

7
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,820
But the truth is, I did it for myself.

8
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,160
To save myself.

9
00:03:55,780 --> 00:03:57,100
Now, if you'll excuse me.

10
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,120
Miss Horton, come on.

11
00:04:08,220 --> 00:04:11,180
Such a very distinguished man.

12
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:55,420
the personal history and experiences of
David Copperfield

13
00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:57,000
the Younger.

14
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,880
Whether I shall turn out to be the hero
of my own life, or whether that station

15
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,240
will be held by anybody else, these
pages must show.

16
00:05:11,260 --> 00:05:16,880
To begin my life with the beginning of
my life, I here record that I was born

17
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,010
at Blunderston In Suffolk.

18
00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:22,310
I was a posthumous child.

19
00:05:23,130 --> 00:05:27,630
My father's eyes had closed upon the
light of this world six months when mine

20
00:05:27,630 --> 00:05:28,630
opened on it.

21
00:05:31,350 --> 00:05:36,810
An aunt of my father's, and consequently
a great aunt of mine, Miss Betsy

22
00:05:36,810 --> 00:05:39,790
Trotwood was the principal magnate of
our family.

23
00:05:40,850 --> 00:05:43,470
My father had once been a favourite of
hers, I believe.

24
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,560
but she was mortally affronted when he
married my mother without first

25
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,740
presenting her for inspection and
approval.

26
00:06:29,610 --> 00:06:32,110
Miss Betsy and my father never met
again.

27
00:06:32,590 --> 00:06:34,490
And she'd never seen my mother.

28
00:06:39,390 --> 00:06:40,670
The rookery.

29
00:06:41,430 --> 00:06:42,430
Indeed.

30
00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:47,630
Where are the rooks?

31
00:06:49,950 --> 00:06:52,030
I see no such bird.

32
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:03,460
This, then, was the state of matters on
what I may be excused for calling that

33
00:07:03,460 --> 00:07:04,840
important day.

34
00:07:37,870 --> 00:07:39,950
Mrs. David Copperfield, I think.

35
00:07:40,710 --> 00:07:43,130
Yes? Miss Betsy Trotwood.

36
00:07:44,390 --> 00:07:46,070
You have heard of her, I dare say.

37
00:07:46,570 --> 00:07:48,110
I have had that pleasure.

38
00:07:48,790 --> 00:07:49,910
And now you see her.

39
00:08:19,799 --> 00:08:21,500
Don't do that. Stop it.

40
00:08:22,220 --> 00:08:23,500
Stop it.

41
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,400
There.

42
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Yes, now.

43
00:08:27,980 --> 00:08:29,180
Let me look at you.

44
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,540
Come. Come, come.

45
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:36,580
Well, bless

46
00:08:36,580 --> 00:08:45,840
my

47
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:46,840
heart.

48
00:08:47,060 --> 00:08:48,420
You're a very baby.

49
00:08:50,030 --> 00:08:51,130
I'm a childish widow.

50
00:08:52,890 --> 00:08:55,870
And I will be a childish mother if I
live.

51
00:08:57,490 --> 00:08:58,490
Nonsense.

52
00:08:59,170 --> 00:09:03,390
Set you down. Child, set you down. Be in
the chair by the fire.

53
00:09:09,570 --> 00:09:11,310
The rookery, indeed.

54
00:09:12,330 --> 00:09:13,970
Where are the rooks?

55
00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:18,630
What, ma'am? Rooks, large black birds of
the crow family.

56
00:09:20,430 --> 00:09:21,430
There are none here now.

57
00:09:21,470 --> 00:09:24,190
In the name of heaven, why the rookery?

58
00:09:24,690 --> 00:09:25,850
You mean the house?

59
00:09:26,290 --> 00:09:28,350
Well, of course I mean the house. What
do you mean?

60
00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:30,710
The name was Mr.

61
00:09:30,950 --> 00:09:34,190
Copperfield's choice on account of the
old nest in the garden.

62
00:09:37,710 --> 00:09:40,250
David Copperfield all over.

63
00:09:40,950 --> 00:09:45,710
Calls a house a rookery and there's not
a rook near it. Takes the birds on trust

64
00:09:45,710 --> 00:09:47,030
because he sees the nest.

65
00:09:47,430 --> 00:09:49,090
Mr. Copperfield is dead.

66
00:10:08,599 --> 00:10:09,599
Nonsense.

67
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:12,280
What you need is tea.

68
00:10:21,340 --> 00:10:23,180
What's your servant's name? Pegarty.

69
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,280
Pegarty?

70
00:10:25,780 --> 00:10:31,320
Do you mean to tell me that any human
being has gone into a Christian church

71
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,220
and got themselves named Pegarty?

72
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:35,680
It's my surname, ma'am.

73
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:41,850
Mr. Cock... feel called me by it,
because my Christian name's Clara, same

74
00:10:41,850 --> 00:10:42,850
as my mistress.

75
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:47,990
Yes, well, Piggity, fetch your mistress
a strong cup of tea.

76
00:10:48,190 --> 00:10:49,390
Do, dawdle.

77
00:10:57,230 --> 00:11:00,390
I have no doubt the child shall be a
girl.

78
00:11:01,650 --> 00:11:02,730
Perhaps a boy.

79
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:08,260
don't contradict i have a strong
presentiment that child must be a girl

80
00:11:08,260 --> 00:11:14,920
and i shall be her godmother you will
call her betsy

81
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:21,900
trotwood copperfield now on to

82
00:11:21,900 --> 00:11:28,500
money matters has david left you
properly provided for i have this house

83
00:11:28,500 --> 00:11:34,250
and its contents and a sufficient income
I think a hundred a year.

84
00:11:35,610 --> 00:11:38,350
That seems satisfactory.

85
00:11:39,510 --> 00:11:42,690
Now to my goddaughter's education.

86
00:12:42,420 --> 00:12:43,420
Mom.

87
00:12:49,020 --> 00:12:50,020
Mom.

88
00:12:52,860 --> 00:12:53,860
Mom.

89
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:58,800
Doctor,

90
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:00,100
well?

91
00:13:01,460 --> 00:13:03,200
I'm happy to congratulate you, Mom.

92
00:13:03,460 --> 00:13:05,460
What? A fine boy. Speak up, can't you?

93
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:06,720
A boy.

94
00:13:06,740 --> 00:13:08,920
What is the matter with Mom? Why does he
whisper?

95
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:19,640
A boy.

96
00:13:20,060 --> 00:13:21,240
What? A boy!

97
00:13:22,260 --> 00:13:25,260
Impossible! I don't show you one! I
won't hear you!

98
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:52,600
Oh boy!

99
00:13:52,940 --> 00:13:56,520
Here we are.

100
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,540
Oh, it's beautiful.

101
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,880
We shall be called David after his dear
father,

102
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,980
David Copperfield.

103
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:28,740
Even now, when I look back on those
first nine years of my childhood, I see

104
00:14:28,740 --> 00:14:29,740
nothing but sunlight.

105
00:14:31,300 --> 00:14:34,720
Sunlight winking in the window of the
parlour where my mother gives me my

106
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:40,180
first lessons, or flooding a garden,
glinting on her curls as she gathers

107
00:14:40,180 --> 00:14:41,180
fruit.

108
00:14:41,740 --> 00:14:47,220
Riper and richer than fruit has ever
been since, in any other garden.

109
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,100
Even the old churchyard where my father
lay.

110
00:14:51,610 --> 00:14:55,590
and where each Sunday we brought flowers
in his memory, even that sad place

111
00:14:55,590 --> 00:15:00,250
seemed in my childish vision to be
perpetually suffused in sunlight.

112
00:15:04,190 --> 00:15:07,070
Until the shadow fell.

113
00:15:10,510 --> 00:15:12,150
Good day, Mrs. Copperfield.

114
00:15:13,950 --> 00:15:14,950
Mr. Marston.

115
00:15:15,630 --> 00:15:16,630
Good day, David.

116
00:15:18,290 --> 00:15:20,270
I trust I find you well, my boy.

117
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:25,400
He's shy.

118
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,300
She sang like an angel. Really? Yes.

119
00:15:40,860 --> 00:15:41,860
So,

120
00:15:44,420 --> 00:15:46,520
goodbye, Mrs. Copperfield.

121
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:47,880
Mr. Mesdie.

122
00:15:49,180 --> 00:15:50,180
Goodbye, Davy.

123
00:15:53,870 --> 00:15:54,870
Come, my boy.

124
00:15:55,210 --> 00:15:56,210
Let's be friends.

125
00:15:57,010 --> 00:15:58,010
Davy?

126
00:16:03,290 --> 00:16:05,710
Well, that's the wrong hand, Davy.

127
00:16:13,670 --> 00:16:15,010
There's a brave little fellow.

128
00:16:22,860 --> 00:16:23,860
Master Davey?

129
00:16:24,220 --> 00:16:25,660
Master Davey?

130
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:27,280
Yes, Peggy?

131
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:32,420
How should you like to go along with me
and spend a fortnight at my brother's at

132
00:16:32,420 --> 00:16:34,820
Yarmouth? Wouldn't that be a treat?

133
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,680
Peggy, is your brother an enjoyable man?

134
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:45,480
That he is. And then there's the sea and
the boats and the fishermen and the

135
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:46,480
beach.

136
00:16:52,460 --> 00:16:53,840
But what will Mama say?

137
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,560
As good as better Ganesh, she'll let us
go.

138
00:16:57,860 --> 00:17:00,740
So what's she to do with herself while
we're away?

139
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:02,760
She can't live on her own.

140
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,720
Bless you.

141
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:10,660
Don't you know she's going to stay for a
full night with Mrs. Graper?

142
00:17:11,300 --> 00:17:12,420
Mrs. Graper?

143
00:17:12,859 --> 00:17:13,859
Hmm.

144
00:17:14,099 --> 00:17:16,099
Mrs. Graper's going to have a lot of
company.

145
00:17:16,380 --> 00:17:17,480
Then we can go.

146
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:18,700
Yes.

147
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,520
Poor David.

148
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:23,980
How innocent you were.

149
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,420
How eager to leave your happy home.

150
00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:29,320
And poor Peggy.

151
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,020
I see the whole plot now.

152
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,800
Peggy was to be ambassadress for my
mother and break the news to me during

153
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:37,800
our stay in Yarmouth.

154
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:19,180
Master Davy? Isn't it a wonderful place,
Figgity?

155
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:23,380
Tis the finest along this coast, that's
well known.

156
00:18:23,660 --> 00:18:25,980
Master Davy?

157
00:18:30,060 --> 00:18:31,060
Yes, Figgity?

158
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:32,360
Look, there's Ham!

159
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,920
Stop, Mr. Barkers! There's my nephew,
Ham!

160
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,820
Ham! Yahoo!

161
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,720
Hey, there's my Aunt Clara!

162
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,220
I got my mask on. Hello, sir.

163
00:18:53,120 --> 00:18:54,120
Hi.

164
00:18:55,060 --> 00:18:56,920
No sweetheart, do you believe?

165
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,740
I beg your pardon, Mr. Barkis.

166
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,580
Who person walks with her?

167
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:03,839
With Peggy.

168
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:04,840
Oh, her.

169
00:19:06,060 --> 00:19:06,979
Oh, no.

170
00:19:06,980 --> 00:19:08,580
She never had a sweetheart.

171
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:09,960
Oh.

172
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,140
Never had a sweetheart.

173
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:47,180
If it had been Aladdin's palace, I could
not have been more charmed with the

174
00:19:47,180 --> 00:19:48,860
romantic idea of living in it.

175
00:19:49,580 --> 00:19:54,640
The true wonder of it was that it was a
real boat that must have been upon the

176
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,400
oceans hundreds, thousands of times.

177
00:20:02,700 --> 00:20:03,900
Glad to see you, sir.

178
00:20:04,500 --> 00:20:07,380
You'll find us rough, sir, but you'll
find us ready.

179
00:20:13,620 --> 00:20:15,280
This is little Emily, sir.

180
00:20:17,540 --> 00:20:19,400
Emily, say how do you do to Mr.

181
00:20:19,660 --> 00:20:20,660
Copperfield?

182
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,220
Well, sister.

183
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:33,179
How are you, lad?

184
00:20:33,180 --> 00:20:34,600
All right, my lad.

185
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:37,040
Come on, baby.

186
00:20:41,220 --> 00:20:42,220
Mr. Peggy?

187
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:47,320
Sir. Did you give your son the name Ham
because you live in the Noah's Ark?

188
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:48,880
No, sir.

189
00:20:49,060 --> 00:20:50,880
His father gave him that name.

190
00:20:53,460 --> 00:20:55,320
But I thought you were his father.

191
00:20:55,780 --> 00:20:58,160
My brother Joe was his father.

192
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:03,440
Mr Piggotty.

193
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,920
Drowned it. But little Emily, she's your
daughter, isn't she?

194
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:10,520
No, sir.

195
00:21:10,820 --> 00:21:13,740
My brother-in-law Tom was her father.

196
00:21:14,780 --> 00:21:17,160
Not dead, Mr Piggotty.

197
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:18,720
Drowned it.

198
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,800
Haven't you any children, then?

199
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:22,800
No, sir.

200
00:21:23,180 --> 00:21:25,640
I'm a bachelor. A bachelor?

201
00:21:30,570 --> 00:21:31,890
I knew it was a bedmaster, baby.

202
00:21:38,270 --> 00:21:40,490
There's their old girl.

203
00:21:43,830 --> 00:21:45,890
Her name's Mrs. Dummage.

204
00:21:46,430 --> 00:21:49,610
Her man and Danal was partners in a
boat.

205
00:21:50,030 --> 00:21:53,450
But old Dummage died and left her very
poor.

206
00:21:54,110 --> 00:21:55,570
So Danal took her in.

207
00:21:55,910 --> 00:21:58,670
Like Ham and little Emily when they was
orphaned.

208
00:21:59,070 --> 00:22:02,510
He must be a very good man, I should
think. The best of men.

209
00:22:03,630 --> 00:22:04,770
To bed with you now.

210
00:22:10,730 --> 00:22:11,730
Good night.

211
00:22:14,730 --> 00:22:15,730
Night.

212
00:22:20,250 --> 00:22:21,250
Davy?

213
00:22:23,070 --> 00:22:24,070
Yes, Peggy?

214
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:33,460
My brother Daniel, he don't like have
that goodness and generosity of his

215
00:22:33,460 --> 00:22:34,439
spoken love.

216
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,140
Not by anybody, not in his hearing.

217
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,960
I won't mention it.

218
00:22:38,460 --> 00:22:40,780
Don't. It makes him swear something
terrible to do.

219
00:23:04,490 --> 00:23:09,830
Sometimes, at night, when there's a
storm blowing, I wake and I think I hear

220
00:23:09,830 --> 00:23:13,550
Uncle Daniel and Ham pouring out for
help.

221
00:23:14,890 --> 00:23:17,030
Does it make you remember your father?

222
00:23:17,890 --> 00:23:19,250
I never knowed him.

223
00:23:20,850 --> 00:23:21,850
That's like me.

224
00:23:22,530 --> 00:23:23,890
But you had a mother, hadn't you?

225
00:23:24,730 --> 00:23:26,090
I lost my mother too.

226
00:23:26,930 --> 00:23:30,670
Besides, your father was a gentleman and
more than a fisherman, like Uncle

227
00:23:30,670 --> 00:23:31,670
Daniel.

228
00:23:32,730 --> 00:23:36,490
Peggy says I should never mention what a
good man he is. Good!

229
00:23:37,130 --> 00:23:43,010
If I was ever to be a lady, I'd give him
a sky blue coat, with diamond buttons, a

230
00:23:43,010 --> 00:23:47,170
red velvet waistcoat, a cocked hat, a
gold watch and a box of money.

231
00:23:47,390 --> 00:23:49,130
Would you like to be a lady, Emily?

232
00:23:49,710 --> 00:23:50,710
Yes, very much.

233
00:23:52,470 --> 00:23:53,730
Emily, wait!

234
00:24:25,450 --> 00:24:30,230
I'm sure I loved her with a greater
tenderness and purity than can enter

235
00:24:30,230 --> 00:24:32,790
into even the noblest love of a later
time of life.

236
00:24:34,470 --> 00:24:40,070
The days sported by us as if time
himself had not grown up yet, but was a

237
00:24:40,070 --> 00:24:42,650
child too, and always at play.

238
00:24:45,650 --> 00:24:50,850
Dear Peggy, I suppose it was because she
saw us so happy and would not spoil it

239
00:24:50,850 --> 00:24:54,210
that she never did carry out the
commission my mother had entrusted to

240
00:24:54,210 --> 00:24:55,179
her.

241
00:24:55,180 --> 00:24:58,900
It was only when we were approaching the
very gate of the house that at last she

242
00:24:58,900 --> 00:24:59,900
told me.

243
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:02,160
Mr. Barkis, sound your horn.

244
00:25:30,570 --> 00:25:33,330
Wait, wait, Master Davy, and I'll tell
you something.

245
00:25:35,650 --> 00:25:36,650
What?

246
00:25:37,830 --> 00:25:38,890
Where is she?

247
00:25:39,270 --> 00:25:40,650
She's not dead.

248
00:25:41,590 --> 00:25:46,290
Dead? Of course she's not. Oh, bless the
boy.

249
00:25:47,130 --> 00:25:53,630
Now, Davy, I should have told you
something before, but

250
00:25:53,630 --> 00:25:56,610
I couldn't bring my mind to it.

251
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:00,400
What do you think?

252
00:26:01,260 --> 00:26:02,720
You've got a power.

253
00:26:05,020 --> 00:26:06,280
A new one.

254
00:26:08,820 --> 00:26:09,820
Mama!

255
00:26:11,940 --> 00:26:12,940
Phoebe!

256
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,000
Clara.

257
00:26:18,380 --> 00:26:19,380
My dear.

258
00:26:22,340 --> 00:26:23,520
Control yourself.

259
00:26:28,330 --> 00:26:31,510
Well, you may kiss your mother, David.

260
00:26:36,290 --> 00:26:38,890
Always control yourself.

261
00:26:42,830 --> 00:26:43,830
Well now, David.

262
00:26:46,290 --> 00:26:47,290
How do you do?

263
00:27:10,700 --> 00:27:11,700
JandJ?

264
00:27:14,940 --> 00:27:17,420
Mr. Murdstone's sister is to live with
us, Davy.

265
00:27:18,340 --> 00:27:21,360
She's to have this room, while you're to
have a new room.

266
00:27:22,300 --> 00:27:23,300
But why?

267
00:27:24,980 --> 00:27:25,980
Come with me.

268
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:53,800
Davy.

269
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:57,200
Clara.

270
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:01,760
What is this?

271
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,540
Clara, my love.

272
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:09,560
Have you forgotten?

273
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,720
Firmness, my dear.

274
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:20,200
I'm sorry, Edward.

275
00:28:21,610 --> 00:28:22,950
I meant to be very good.

276
00:28:23,870 --> 00:28:25,010
I'm so uncomfortable.

277
00:28:31,470 --> 00:28:33,090
Go you below, my dear.

278
00:28:34,510 --> 00:28:37,470
David and I will be down in a moment.

279
00:28:49,810 --> 00:28:50,810
David.

280
00:29:04,170 --> 00:29:11,090
If I have an obstinate horse or dog,
what do you think

281
00:29:11,090 --> 00:29:12,090
I do?

282
00:29:13,430 --> 00:29:16,190
I don't know.

283
00:29:17,150 --> 00:29:18,690
I beat him.

284
00:29:20,610 --> 00:29:24,630
I make him wince and smart.

285
00:29:26,190 --> 00:29:30,810
And I say to myself, I'll conquer that
fellow.

286
00:29:31,820 --> 00:29:37,560
If it cost him all the blood he has,
I'll do it.

287
00:29:42,740 --> 00:29:44,960
A few days later, she came.

288
00:29:45,460 --> 00:29:47,420
Miss Jane Murdstone.

289
00:30:00,460 --> 00:30:05,040
I remember when she paid the coachman,
she took her money out of a hard steel

290
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:10,320
purse. She kept the purse in a very jail
of a bag, which hung upon her arm by

291
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,600
heavy chains and shut up like a bite.

292
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:20,580
I've never seen before, nor have I ever
seen since, such a metallic lady as Jane

293
00:30:20,580 --> 00:30:21,580
Murdston.

294
00:30:22,460 --> 00:30:24,520
Dear Jane, welcome.

295
00:30:26,340 --> 00:30:28,120
Is this your boy, Sister-in-law?

296
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:30,860
This is Davy.

297
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:34,840
Generally speaking, I don't like boys.

298
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:36,760
How do you do, boy?

299
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,280
Fine, thank you, Mum.

300
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,180
And I hope you are the same.

301
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:46,800
Relax,

302
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:48,560
Mama.

303
00:30:48,700 --> 00:30:49,700
Brother.

304
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:22,880
Clara, my dear, I'm come here to relieve
you of all the trouble I can.

305
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:29,120
You're much too pretty and thoughtless
to have any duties imposed upon you that

306
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:30,580
can be undertaken by me.

307
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,740
Give me your keys, my dear.

308
00:31:41,420 --> 00:31:42,420
Clara?

309
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,820
It's very hard that in my own house...
In my own house?

310
00:32:01,140 --> 00:32:02,140
Claire!

311
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,240
Our own house, I mean.

312
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:09,720
It's very hard that I may not have a
word to say about domestic matters.

313
00:32:10,220 --> 00:32:12,740
I'm sure I managed very well before we
were married.

314
00:32:12,940 --> 00:32:14,600
Edward, let there be an end of it.

315
00:32:14,900 --> 00:32:15,900
I go tomorrow.

316
00:32:16,220 --> 00:32:18,260
Jane Murdstone, sit down and be silent.

317
00:32:18,540 --> 00:32:20,300
I'm sure I don't want anybody to go.

318
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:23,240
I don't ask much, only...

319
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:24,920
To be consulted sometimes.

320
00:32:25,420 --> 00:32:28,200
Edward, I... Jane Murdstone, will you be
silent?

321
00:32:31,620 --> 00:32:33,240
Clara, you astound me.

322
00:32:35,620 --> 00:32:40,960
When Jane Murdstone is kind enough to
assume, for my sake, something like the

323
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:42,720
condition of a housekeeper's.

324
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:50,640
And when she meets with a base return...
No, don't say that, my love. This is not

325
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:51,780
a fit scene for the boy.

326
00:32:53,500 --> 00:32:54,720
David, go to bed.

327
00:32:55,060 --> 00:32:56,940
But, sir... To bed, I say!

328
00:33:08,620 --> 00:33:09,620
Davey?

329
00:33:23,470 --> 00:33:30,230
Davy be firm with the boy He knows his
lesson or

330
00:33:30,230 --> 00:33:33,330
he does not know it. He does not know it

331
00:33:33,330 --> 00:33:48,370
Jane

332
00:33:48,370 --> 00:33:49,550
Murdstone is right.

333
00:33:50,210 --> 00:33:52,410
He does not know it

334
00:33:55,820 --> 00:33:59,860
More firmness is required. Much more.
Edward, please, no!

335
00:34:00,260 --> 00:34:03,560
Clara, I have often been flogged myself.

336
00:34:05,380 --> 00:34:06,720
Edward, please!

337
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:11,900
Clara! My dear Jane, Clara is greatly
strengthened and improved.

338
00:34:12,260 --> 00:34:17,380
But we can hardly expect her to bear
with perfect firmness the worry and

339
00:34:17,380 --> 00:34:22,400
torment that David has brought upon her
with his idleness and inattention.

340
00:34:22,699 --> 00:34:23,699
David!

341
00:34:24,710 --> 00:34:27,350
You and I shall go upstairs,

342
00:34:28,110 --> 00:34:29,110
boy.

343
00:35:09,910 --> 00:35:10,910
Don't you?

344
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,640
He beat me then as if he'd have beaten
me to death.

345
00:35:59,700 --> 00:36:00,700
How well I recollect.

346
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:20,560
When I became quiet, what an unnatural
stillness seemed to reign through the

347
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:21,560
whole house.

348
00:36:22,420 --> 00:36:27,040
It grew dark, the night wore on, and
nobody came near me.

349
00:36:28,580 --> 00:36:30,760
Fearful questions tortured me.

350
00:36:31,020 --> 00:36:33,200
Was it a criminal act that I'd
committed?

351
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,080
Would I be sent to prison?

352
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,060
Would I be hanged?

353
00:37:03,370 --> 00:37:04,410
Is that you, Peggy?

354
00:37:05,110 --> 00:37:08,230
Soft as a mouse. All the cattle hear us.

355
00:37:08,670 --> 00:37:11,030
Is Mama very angry with me?

356
00:37:11,610 --> 00:37:13,590
No, not very.

357
00:37:14,590 --> 00:37:16,570
But what's to be done with me?

358
00:37:17,490 --> 00:37:18,490
School.

359
00:37:18,870 --> 00:37:20,150
Near London.

360
00:37:28,850 --> 00:37:30,150
Oh, Jamie.

361
00:37:30,390 --> 00:37:32,630
Mama, please forgive me.

362
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,520
Please.

363
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,760
Clara. I do forgive you.

364
00:37:38,060 --> 00:37:40,800
Clara. But try to be better.

365
00:37:41,780 --> 00:37:43,200
Pray to be better.

366
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,040
I do forgive you.

367
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:49,400
Goodbye, my child.

368
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:50,840
David.

369
00:37:55,180 --> 00:37:56,180
David.

370
00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:59,200
That's enough.

371
00:38:01,580 --> 00:38:02,700
Now that's enough.

372
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:04,120
It's enough, I say.

373
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:15,440
Go on, up you go.

374
00:38:23,220 --> 00:38:26,180
I hope you'll repent or you'll come to a
bad end.

375
00:38:27,060 --> 00:38:28,060
Drive on.

376
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:02,680
You mustn't never forget me, Davy, for
I'll never forget you.

377
00:39:03,460 --> 00:39:08,160
And I'll take as much care of your ma as
I ever took of you, and I won't never

378
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,160
leave her.

379
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:23,500
Is she a good cook?

380
00:39:24,940 --> 00:39:25,940
Pegatine, you mean.

381
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:27,160
Aye.

382
00:39:30,890 --> 00:39:31,890
the pie, Mr. Marcus.

383
00:39:32,210 --> 00:39:33,350
Oh, maybe I will.

384
00:39:42,010 --> 00:39:45,750
Perhaps you might be writing to her.

385
00:39:46,070 --> 00:39:48,170
I'll certainly be writing to her.

386
00:39:48,870 --> 00:39:49,870
Ah, well.

387
00:39:52,110 --> 00:39:53,770
You are writing to her.

388
00:39:55,330 --> 00:39:57,890
Perhaps you recollect to say that...

389
00:40:01,660 --> 00:40:03,540
Arcus is willing.

390
00:40:04,660 --> 00:40:05,940
Arcus is willing?

391
00:40:06,240 --> 00:40:07,900
Is that all your message?

392
00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:09,340
Yeah.

393
00:40:10,980 --> 00:40:13,480
Arcus is willing.

394
00:40:36,759 --> 00:40:39,820
Come on, hurry up! Move it!

395
00:40:41,140 --> 00:40:42,460
Come on, move!

396
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:58,160
Is this the new boy, Mr Tanguy?

397
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:00,300
It is Mr.

398
00:41:00,660 --> 00:41:01,660
Krako Shah.

399
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,520
Fetch him up.

400
00:41:11,020 --> 00:41:12,020
Right there.

401
00:41:30,510 --> 00:41:31,510
Tommy Tradows.

402
00:41:31,630 --> 00:41:32,630
Good luck.

403
00:41:33,070 --> 00:41:34,070
Come on.

404
00:41:34,730 --> 00:41:35,730
In you go.

405
00:41:46,850 --> 00:41:53,810
So... This is the young gentleman whose
teeth are to be piled.

406
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:01,400
Lively now.

407
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:08,360
I have seen your happiness of knowing
your step-father, Mr.

408
00:42:08,700 --> 00:42:12,000
Mercedown, and a worthy man he is.

409
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,220
A man of strong character.

410
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,540
He knows me, and I know him.

411
00:42:21,980 --> 00:42:24,080
Do you know me, boy?

412
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,560
No, I guess so. Not yet, eh?

413
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,040
But you will soon, eh?

414
00:42:29,980 --> 00:42:31,600
You will soon, eh?

415
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,440
I'll tell you what I am.

416
00:42:34,540 --> 00:42:35,620
I'm a tartar.

417
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:41,520
A tartar. I'm a determined character,
that's what I am. When I say, I do a

418
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,140
thing, I do it. Do it.

419
00:42:44,380 --> 00:42:46,980
Will I not do it, Mrs. Creakle?

420
00:42:47,980 --> 00:42:50,000
You will, Mr. Creakle.

421
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:03,120
Mr. Tonguey, please oblige.

422
00:43:09,940 --> 00:43:15,460
It seems you're famous for biting balls.

423
00:43:15,980 --> 00:43:18,000
Well, I'm famous for biting.

424
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:19,920
Ah! Carol!

425
00:43:20,940 --> 00:43:23,540
What about this for a tooth?

426
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,600
Is it not sharp?

427
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,260
Will it bite, eh?

428
00:44:26,380 --> 00:44:29,800
In the name of my saviour, James
Steerforth.

429
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,680
He was the oldest boy in the school, the
son of a rich widow.

430
00:44:35,340 --> 00:44:37,340
Steerforth was afraid of nobody.

431
00:44:38,940 --> 00:44:40,700
Well, stand up, Truddles, for God's
sake.

432
00:44:45,540 --> 00:44:46,540
You.

433
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:50,640
Up you get, young'un.

434
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:55,360
What's this?

435
00:44:57,100 --> 00:44:58,100
What is this?

436
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:03,820
I call it a rotten shame, don't you
boys?

437
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:05,400
Yes!

438
00:45:07,780 --> 00:45:12,700
Good day, Mr. Creakle.

439
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:21,480
Tuck yourself in.

440
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,480
Don't you worry.

441
00:45:29,420 --> 00:45:30,420
I'll look after you.

442
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:42,260
From that moment, I was bound to him by
an unbreakable bond of loyalty

443
00:45:42,260 --> 00:45:43,400
and gratitude.

444
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,940
He did make life in that brutal place at
least tolerable.

445
00:45:51,820 --> 00:45:55,400
He loved a story, but was far too idle,
he said, to read himself.

446
00:45:55,780 --> 00:45:57,020
So I read to him.

447
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,740
Then came the morning when I was
summoned to Mr. Creakle in the parlor.

448
00:46:04,820 --> 00:46:05,820
Master Copperfield?

449
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,680
Yes, sir? You wanted in Mr. Creakle's
parlor.

450
00:46:09,340 --> 00:46:11,140
Come on, come on, hurry up.

451
00:46:16,540 --> 00:46:17,020
Come

452
00:46:17,020 --> 00:46:25,120
here

453
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,120
and sit down, David.

454
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,060
to tell you, my child.

455
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,980
You're too young to know how the world
changes every day and the people in it

456
00:46:37,980 --> 00:46:38,980
pass away.

457
00:46:40,180 --> 00:46:43,020
It's something we've all got to learn,
David.

458
00:46:43,980 --> 00:46:46,080
Some of us when we're very young.

459
00:46:49,420 --> 00:46:56,060
I grieve to have to tell you that I hear
this morning

460
00:46:56,060 --> 00:46:59,300
that your mama is gravely ill.

461
00:47:03,050 --> 00:47:05,590
She is very dangerously ill.

462
00:47:09,830 --> 00:47:11,570
She is dead.

463
00:47:15,090 --> 00:47:20,650
Man that is born of a woman hath but a
short time to live, and is full of

464
00:47:20,650 --> 00:47:24,310
misery. He cometh up, and is cut down
like a flower.

465
00:47:24,750 --> 00:47:28,890
He cleareth that it were a shadow, and
never continueth in one day.

466
00:47:29,610 --> 00:47:32,470
In the midst of life we are in death.

467
00:47:34,090 --> 00:47:39,290
After you went, she got more timid and
frightened like.

468
00:47:40,310 --> 00:47:44,530
The hard word was like a blow to her.

469
00:47:45,810 --> 00:47:49,070
But still she would love them two
downstairs.

470
00:47:50,670 --> 00:47:53,950
Because she couldn't bear not to love
anyone who was about her.

471
00:47:58,890 --> 00:48:02,390
At last, she says to me...

472
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:10,920
Raggedy, my dear, lay your good arm
underneath my neck and turn me to

473
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,600
you, for your face is going far off.

474
00:48:18,220 --> 00:48:24,300
And she called on God to bless and
protect her father's boy.

475
00:48:26,540 --> 00:48:29,320
And then she died.

476
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,160
Like a child.

477
00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:01,860
I hope that you and Mr. Barkis will be
very happy together, Peggy T.

478
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:03,780
Bless the boy.

479
00:49:05,780 --> 00:49:08,860
They do say he's a bit tight with money.

480
00:49:09,220 --> 00:49:15,000
So, take this now, Davy, before I'm Mrs
Barkis.

481
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,540
A whole sovereign... Shh!

482
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:21,500
I can't.

483
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:26,520
You take it and guard it well till the
day you need it.

484
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:40,980
Don't agree, don't agree.

485
00:49:41,240 --> 00:49:44,940
It's a waste of time. What's more, it's
a waste of money. Put it all to auction.

486
00:49:45,020 --> 00:49:46,100
House and contents.

487
00:49:46,740 --> 00:49:48,080
Stock and barrel.

488
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:51,940
It's quick, and you'll get your price.

489
00:49:54,900 --> 00:49:55,300
Um...

490
00:49:55,300 --> 00:50:06,020
David.

491
00:50:07,860 --> 00:50:08,860
Come here, boy.

492
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:17,480
You have a disposition which requires a
great deal of correcting.

493
00:50:17,720 --> 00:50:21,600
What he wants is to be crushed. And
crushed it must be, and crushed it will

494
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:25,460
be. Jane, leave this to me, if you
please.

495
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,560
I am not a rich man, David.

496
00:50:30,380 --> 00:50:31,900
And education is costly.

497
00:50:32,580 --> 00:50:36,100
In any case, I can see no advantage to
leaving you at school.

498
00:50:39,140 --> 00:50:42,200
So, I have a business in London.

499
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,080
Murdstone and Grimby.

500
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,040
Mr Quinion, my friend, manages it for
me.

501
00:50:47,420 --> 00:50:51,660
Mr Quinion has suggested that since it
gives employment to other boys, it can

502
00:50:51,660 --> 00:50:53,460
also give employment to you.

503
00:50:53,820 --> 00:50:55,780
Seeing that he has no other prospects.

504
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:59,660
Your wages will be six shillings per
week.

505
00:50:59,940 --> 00:51:03,080
Your lodgings, which I have arranged,
will be paid for by me.

506
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,920
In short, you're provided for and will
do your duty.

507
00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:10,600
Here we are.

508
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,300
Murdston and Grimby, we have arrived.

509
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:15,560
Here lies your future.

510
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,720
Murdston and Grimby.

511
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,860
Our chief business is the supply of
wines and spirits to merchant ships.

512
00:51:26,380 --> 00:51:27,380
Come here, Mick.

513
00:51:28,540 --> 00:51:29,600
Here's Mick Walker.

514
00:51:29,900 --> 00:51:32,680
This is David Copperfield. He's the work
below.

515
00:51:32,900 --> 00:51:34,800
He's down and instructed in his duties.

516
00:51:44,390 --> 00:51:46,890
Not to be repeated to Mr.

517
00:51:47,090 --> 00:51:48,090
Chew.

518
00:51:49,790 --> 00:51:55,730
I'm off, I am. Soon as I'm made, I'm
gonna be a bargeman, like me old pop,

519
00:51:55,950 --> 00:52:01,150
and walk in the Lord Mayor's show in
black velvet headdress like he done.

520
00:52:01,810 --> 00:52:04,050
Here, Mealy! What?

521
00:52:05,370 --> 00:52:11,330
This is Mealy Potatoes. He do have a
name, but we all calls him Mealy

522
00:52:11,330 --> 00:52:14,660
Potatoes. Because he looks like an
half-boiled spud.

523
00:52:16,180 --> 00:52:17,780
Do he have a name, then?

524
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:19,260
Copper something.

525
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:21,540
Field. Copperfield.

526
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:23,200
David Copperfield.

527
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:25,700
Show him what he has to do.

528
00:52:27,620 --> 00:52:29,520
Good luck, Cocky.

529
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,200
David Copperfield.

530
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,800
Esquire. At your service.

531
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:39,200
Me lords.

532
00:52:39,460 --> 00:52:40,460
Ladies.

533
00:52:40,970 --> 00:52:41,970
And gentlemen.

534
00:52:43,830 --> 00:52:45,270
Show us your hands.

535
00:52:45,890 --> 00:52:47,250
Show us your hands!

536
00:52:50,330 --> 00:52:51,330
Now,

537
00:52:55,110 --> 00:52:57,410
milady, observe, if you please.

538
00:53:11,720 --> 00:53:13,420
You try, milady.

539
00:53:20,620 --> 00:53:21,240
No

540
00:53:21,240 --> 00:53:28,120
words can

541
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:33,520
express the secret agony of my soul, the
sense I had of being utterly without

542
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:39,280
hope, the misery it was to my young
heart to know that day by day all I had

543
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:44,660
learnt... and thought and delighted in
would pass away from me little by little

544
00:53:44,660 --> 00:53:50,640
never to be brought back any more but
then in that utter darkness

545
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,620
came a gleam of light

546
00:54:07,850 --> 00:54:11,990
It came in the form of a smartish,
middle-aged person with no more hair

547
00:54:11,990 --> 00:54:13,870
upon his head than there is upon an egg.

548
00:54:14,190 --> 00:54:15,850
This is Mr. McCobber.

549
00:54:17,210 --> 00:54:21,390
Mr. McCobber is known to Mr. Murdstone.
He takes orders from us on commission

550
00:54:21,390 --> 00:54:24,630
when he can get any. You will be lodging
in his house.

551
00:54:24,890 --> 00:54:27,850
Mr. McCobber, this is David Copperfield.

552
00:54:29,030 --> 00:54:30,030
Honored, Mr.

553
00:54:30,110 --> 00:54:33,850
Copperfield. Under the impression that
your peregrination...

554
00:54:34,460 --> 00:54:39,560
in this metropolis have not as yet been
extensive and that you might have some

555
00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:43,620
difficulty in penetrating the arcana of
the modern Babylon.

556
00:54:43,860 --> 00:54:46,520
In short, that you might lose yourself.

557
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,680
I am here to accompany you to my humble
abode.

558
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:52,380
Thank you, sir.

559
00:54:52,940 --> 00:54:54,380
Come in, sir.

560
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,240
Take Copperfield's box for him.

561
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:00,440
Yes, sir.

562
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,300
Mr. Copperfield! Stop!

563
00:55:15,860 --> 00:55:18,120
Pay no debt! Pay me!

564
00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:19,960
I'll have the law on you!

565
00:55:20,240 --> 00:55:25,660
Stop! Mr. Copperfield, if there is one
great universal truth to be discovered

566
00:55:25,660 --> 00:55:31,880
as we journey through this vale of
tears, it is this. Annual income, 20

567
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,640
pounds. Annual expenditure, 19 pounds,
19 and 6.

568
00:55:35,980 --> 00:55:37,220
Result, happiness.

569
00:55:37,620 --> 00:55:42,780
Annual income, 20 pounds. Annual
expenditure, 20 pounds and 6 bits.

570
00:56:01,250 --> 00:56:08,190
The circumstances have rendered it
imperative to enter the humble abode. We

571
00:56:08,190 --> 00:56:11,290
will not say surreptitiously, but
discreetly.

572
00:56:12,140 --> 00:56:14,960
circuitously in short by the back door

573
00:56:43,030 --> 00:56:44,030
Master Copperfield.

574
00:56:44,650 --> 00:56:45,650
Go, go.

575
00:57:02,570 --> 00:57:05,010
Is that you, Mr. Macorber? Yes, I am.

576
00:57:07,510 --> 00:57:12,410
My dear, permit me to present to you
Master David Copperfield.

577
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:18,180
Master Copperfield. Master Copperfield,
I make known to you the partner of my

578
00:57:18,180 --> 00:57:23,140
life, my strong right hand, my helpmate,
in short, Mrs. Macawber.

579
00:57:23,540 --> 00:57:25,460
How do you do, ma'am? Macawber!

580
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:26,920
Upstairs, upstairs.

581
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:30,480
Leaning, Macawber! Until you settle your
debt, sir!

582
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,560
We'll have a... Mr.

583
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:39,220
Macawber's difficult hit are almost
overwhelming at present.

584
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,780
Whether it is possible to bring him
through them, I cannot say.

585
00:57:46,020 --> 00:57:50,960
If Mr. McCobb's creditors will not give
him time, then they must take the

586
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:55,660
consequences. And the sooner they bring
it to an issue, the better.

587
00:57:56,700 --> 00:58:00,060
Is Mr. McCobb a great friend of Mr.
Marlstone, ma'am?

588
00:58:00,740 --> 00:58:01,740
Friends?

589
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:06,180
I would hardly say friends. A mere
commercial acquaintance.

590
00:58:07,700 --> 00:58:09,980
Blood cannot be obtained from a stone.

591
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:15,120
And neither can anything on account be
obtained at present from Mr. Macorber.

592
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:32,300
My family are of the opinion that Mr.
Macorber should

593
00:58:32,300 --> 00:58:35,600
quit London and exercise his talents in
the country.

594
00:58:36,940 --> 00:58:39,660
Mr. Korber's a man of great talent,
Master Copperfield.

595
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,000
I'm sure he is.

596
00:58:41,140 --> 00:58:45,620
My family are of the opinion that, with
a little interest, something might be

597
00:58:45,620 --> 00:58:48,140
done for a man of his ability in the
Custom House.

598
00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:49,560
Yes.

599
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:54,700
In the meantime, I remain confident that
something will turn up.

600
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,540
My dear, I give you Master Copperfield.

601
00:59:00,380 --> 00:59:02,000
You're welcome under our roof, sir.

602
00:59:31,690 --> 00:59:38,650
Forgive me, Mum, I... If I can assist
you in

603
00:59:38,650 --> 00:59:40,090
your troubles, I will.

604
00:59:40,550 --> 00:59:44,210
Master Copperfield, bless you for that.

605
00:59:49,290 --> 00:59:56,250
I cannot treat you as a stranger, and
therefore do not hesitate to say

606
00:59:56,250 --> 01:00:00,490
that Mr Macorber's difficulties are
coming to a...

607
01:00:00,860 --> 01:00:01,860
A crisis.

608
01:00:02,140 --> 01:00:04,100
I'm very sorry to hear that, ma'am.

609
01:00:08,780 --> 01:00:14,060
With the exception of the heel of a
Dutch cheese, which is not adapted to

610
01:00:14,060 --> 01:00:18,160
the wants of the young family, there is
nothing to eat in the house.

611
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:25,960
Mr. Macorber has taken the children to
the pie shop in the hope of obtaining a

612
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:26,960
little more credit.

613
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:30,020
Take this, ma'am.

614
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:32,120
Please.

615
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:34,280
Please.

616
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:39,900
I was alone, Mum.

617
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:43,280
No, I couldn't think of it.

618
01:00:45,340 --> 01:00:48,720
But you could render me another kind of
service.

619
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:50,080
Anything, Mum.

620
01:01:02,830 --> 01:01:04,750
They were my dear papa's.

621
01:01:05,470 --> 01:01:12,110
Mr. Macorber's delicate feelings would
never allow him to... Pawn them, ma'am.

622
01:01:13,470 --> 01:01:17,250
Well, let us say, rather, dispose of
them.

623
01:01:18,090 --> 01:01:22,170
And such transactions are too painful
for me.

624
01:01:23,050 --> 01:01:27,250
But if I might ask you, Master
Copperfield... Anything, ma'am.

625
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,880
It's my house. I live there.

626
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,000
What happened?

627
01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:58,240
Get this present.

628
01:01:59,220 --> 01:02:00,220
All of them.

629
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:04,480
At last, at last, my dear sir. You're
from the Charles Street Court.

630
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:05,960
Out of my way.

631
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:08,980
Don't you quite know each other, young
sir?

632
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:21,400
There. Copperfield.

633
01:02:22,060 --> 01:02:23,060
Oh,

634
01:02:24,300 --> 01:02:31,220
Copperfield. The blossom is blighted.
The leaf is withered. God of day goes

635
01:02:31,220 --> 01:02:36,460
down upon the dreary scene. In short, I
am forever flawed.

636
01:02:39,020 --> 01:02:43,140
I never will desert you, Mr. McCall. I
am a my angel.

637
01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,980
He is the father of my children.

638
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:56,600
He is the husband of my affections, and
I never will desert Mr.

639
01:02:56,780 --> 01:02:57,780
McCorper.

640
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:00,520
Don't cry, Mom.

641
01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:09,660
I went to the pawn shop, and you asked.

642
01:03:10,540 --> 01:03:11,540
What?

643
01:03:19,630 --> 01:03:21,750
Copperfield, you are a Trojan.

644
01:03:23,750 --> 01:03:27,890
The rent is paid on Windsor Terrace
until the end of the month.

645
01:03:28,190 --> 01:03:31,750
You have a legal right to occupy your
room, Master Copperfield.

646
01:03:32,290 --> 01:03:34,330
Let no man prevent it.

647
01:03:35,050 --> 01:03:39,650
You'll send out to the pie shop for some
dinner a few cutlets, I think, and a

648
01:03:39,650 --> 01:03:42,810
mutton pudding for the children and a
pint of brandy punch.

649
01:03:43,850 --> 01:03:45,550
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

650
01:04:02,410 --> 01:04:06,950
To add to the daily miseries of my own
existence, I was now haunted by the

651
01:04:06,950 --> 01:04:09,790
awful fate that had befallen Mr.
Macorber and his family.

652
01:04:10,630 --> 01:04:14,830
I imagined them shut away forever in
that dismal prison, the children growing

653
01:04:14,830 --> 01:04:18,610
up pale and thin like the roots that
sprout from a potato in a dark cupboard.

654
01:04:21,550 --> 01:04:25,750
Teacher, then, my astonishment and joy,
when upon leaving the warehouse one

655
01:04:25,750 --> 01:04:27,510
night, I beheld Mr. Macorber himself.

656
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:36,360
It was a relation of Mrs.

657
01:04:36,820 --> 01:04:40,840
McCarver's, an aunt who, upon hearing of
our plight, advanced to some sufficient

658
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:44,020
to obtain our release from that place of
desolation.

659
01:04:44,380 --> 01:04:48,800
She stipulated only that we should at
once quit the modern Babylon and go down

660
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:49,800
into the country.

661
01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,380
All aboard!

662
01:04:59,780 --> 01:05:01,580
Thanks to my aunt, we are safe.

663
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:08,620
Metropolis, without taking our leave of
you, Master Copperfield, your conduct

664
01:05:08,620 --> 01:05:11,520
has always been most delicate and
obliging.

665
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,420
You have never been a lodger.

666
01:05:16,820 --> 01:05:18,120
You've been a friend.

667
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:24,380
All aboard!

668
01:05:28,860 --> 01:05:33,440
My dear Copperfield, farewell.

669
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,240
every happiness and prosperity.

670
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:42,080
If in the progress of revolving years I
could persuade myself that my blighted

671
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:46,580
destiny has been a warning to you, I
should feel that our friendship, though

672
01:05:46,580 --> 01:05:48,400
brief, had not been in vain.

673
01:05:48,780 --> 01:05:49,780
All aboard!

674
01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:51,200
Yes,

675
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:57,400
sir. Mr. Macorber, sir. I really think
you should go now. In case of anything

676
01:05:57,400 --> 01:06:00,200
turning up, of which I am rather
confident...

677
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:04,380
I shall be extremely happy if it should
lie in my power to improve your

678
01:06:04,380 --> 01:06:06,340
prospects. All aboard!

679
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:08,600
Farewell!

680
01:06:09,940 --> 01:06:10,940
Farewell!

681
01:06:13,500 --> 01:06:14,500
Bye.

682
01:06:17,140 --> 01:06:18,140
Goodbye!

683
01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:19,720
Farewell now!

684
01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:21,000
An aunt.

685
01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:26,760
It was Mr. McCorber's mention of an aunt
that recalled to my mind that legendary

686
01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:29,900
figure of my own family, Miss Betsy
Trotwood.

687
01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:37,520
This aunt of yours, you say she lives
down the coast?

688
01:06:37,780 --> 01:06:38,780
Near Dover.

689
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:40,640
Dover, eh? That's far away.

690
01:06:41,340 --> 01:06:43,140
I've got money enough for the journey.

691
01:07:30,490 --> 01:07:33,170
Mick Walker, what is that in your hat?

692
01:07:33,430 --> 01:07:34,430
Nothing.

693
01:07:37,410 --> 01:07:38,570
Nothing indeed.

694
01:07:40,270 --> 01:07:44,430
How many days I was upon the road from
London to the Kent coast, I could not

695
01:07:44,430 --> 01:07:45,890
now say with any degree of accuracy.

696
01:07:46,570 --> 01:07:50,310
I had no coat to my back. My shoes were
soon kicked into holes.

697
01:07:50,920 --> 01:07:54,920
and my entire worldly capital consisted
of three halfpennies which were stolen

698
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:56,300
from me by a tinker's boy.

699
01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:02,880
I remember a general sensation of my
belly hollow and groaning from hunger,

700
01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:06,220
and of the way ahead appearing to
stretch into infinity.

701
01:08:07,820 --> 01:08:12,280
When at last I reached my aunt's
cottage, my state was pitiful indeed.

702
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:18,120
To this hour, I don't know whether my
aunt had any lawful rights over the

703
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:21,950
patch of green in front of her cottage,
But the one great outrage of her life,

704
01:08:22,050 --> 01:08:26,250
demanding to be constantly avenged, was
the passage of a donkey over that

705
01:08:26,250 --> 01:08:27,250
immaculate spot.

706
01:08:28,770 --> 01:08:29,770
Donkeys!

707
01:08:30,370 --> 01:08:31,370
Donkeys!

708
01:08:32,310 --> 01:08:33,310
Donkeys!

709
01:08:33,770 --> 01:08:34,770
Donkeys!

710
01:08:35,310 --> 01:08:36,910
Stop! Stop with you!

711
01:08:37,229 --> 01:08:40,229
My pa'll have the law on you. You see if
he won't.

712
01:08:59,460 --> 01:09:03,720
What? I'm David Copperfield from
Blandaston in Suffolk and my mother's

713
01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:07,300
told me how you came to see her on the
night I was born. It was midnight and

714
01:09:07,300 --> 01:09:10,120
there was a storm and you wanted me to
be a girl.

715
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:14,180
Janet, the water?

716
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:23,320
Janet, the tonic.

717
01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:33,899
Mr. Dick, here you see young David
Copperfield.

718
01:09:35,319 --> 01:09:39,160
And the question I put to you is, what
should I do with him?

719
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:41,580
What shall you do with him?

720
01:09:47,140 --> 01:09:49,859
Oh, do with him. Yes, come.

721
01:09:50,350 --> 01:09:52,430
I want some very sound advice.

722
01:09:52,950 --> 01:09:58,250
Why, if I were you, I should wash him.

723
01:09:59,330 --> 01:10:02,030
Mr. Dick sets us all right.

724
01:10:04,090 --> 01:10:05,610
There we are, Mr. David.

725
01:10:08,610 --> 01:10:10,310
Janet, don't...

726
01:10:32,910 --> 01:10:33,910
Good night, Aunt.

727
01:10:34,090 --> 01:10:36,090
Yes, yes, yes. Good night, good night.

728
01:10:46,310 --> 01:10:47,390
Yep, yep.

729
01:10:56,390 --> 01:10:59,230
We're off to Canterbury to consult with
Mr. Wickfield.

730
01:11:00,210 --> 01:11:02,110
How's this for a kite, Davey?

731
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:08,080
There's plenty of string you see and
when it flies high it carries my words

732
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:14,060
far far away That's my manner of
diffusing them

733
01:11:14,060 --> 01:11:16,720
we'll be home well before dark

734
01:11:39,850 --> 01:11:41,050
is my lawyer.

735
01:11:41,350 --> 01:11:46,790
here you are. there's nothing to be said
and nothing to be done about anything

736
01:11:46,790 --> 01:11:50,950
until I first put the case to mr.
Wickfield.

737
01:11:57,950 --> 01:11:59,070
dang this chocolate.

738
01:12:00,010 --> 01:12:03,790
is mr. Wickfield at home uriah heep? he
is ma'am.

739
01:12:15,790 --> 01:12:16,790
This is my nephew.

740
01:12:17,010 --> 01:12:19,470
I should say my great-nephew, David
Copperfield.

741
01:12:21,130 --> 01:12:23,770
Honoured, I'm sure, Master Copperfield.

742
01:12:25,110 --> 01:12:26,810
Mr Wickfield is in his room.

743
01:12:27,350 --> 01:12:29,410
Yes. You stay here.

744
01:12:30,570 --> 01:12:34,850
Master Copperfield is welcome to wait in
my room, if he should catch him.

745
01:12:36,050 --> 01:12:37,890
Yes. Well, all right.

746
01:12:41,290 --> 01:12:43,670
This way, Master Copperfield.

747
01:13:23,310 --> 01:13:24,370
That is Mr.

748
01:13:25,030 --> 01:13:27,370
Wickfield's daughter, Agnes.

749
01:13:28,810 --> 01:13:31,330
Your aunt is a great admiration for Miss
Agnes.

750
01:13:33,930 --> 01:13:34,970
As do we all.

751
01:13:36,850 --> 01:13:38,610
Even so humble a person as myself.

752
01:13:39,530 --> 01:13:42,530
I suppose you're quite a great lawyer
then, Mr. Heap.

753
01:13:43,610 --> 01:13:46,650
Me, Master Copperfield? Oh dear, no, no.

754
01:13:47,530 --> 01:13:50,350
I'm the very humblest person going,
Master Copperfield.

755
01:13:50,830 --> 01:13:54,810
My mother, likewise, was a very humble
person. My father's former calling was

756
01:13:54,810 --> 01:13:55,810
humble.

757
01:13:55,870 --> 01:13:57,290
He was a sexton.

758
01:13:58,670 --> 01:13:59,810
What is he now?

759
01:14:00,150 --> 01:14:03,390
He is a partaker of glory at present,
Master Copperfield.

760
01:14:07,030 --> 01:14:08,790
Dead, Mr Heap.

761
01:14:10,070 --> 01:14:12,030
Alas, Master Copperfield.

762
01:14:13,110 --> 01:14:15,470
How long have you been with Mr
Wickfield?

763
01:14:15,970 --> 01:14:18,350
Going on for a year, Master Copperfield.

764
01:14:19,010 --> 01:14:20,010
Why, thank you.

765
01:14:20,430 --> 01:14:21,430
For the inquiry.

766
01:14:21,830 --> 01:14:24,850
I expect you'll be a partner in the
business one day.

767
01:14:25,230 --> 01:14:26,530
Wickfield and Heap.

768
01:14:29,050 --> 01:14:31,150
Oh no, Master Gothelfield.

769
01:14:31,550 --> 01:14:33,150
I'm far too humble for that.

770
01:14:41,790 --> 01:14:44,230
Has anything been decided yet, Aunt?

771
01:14:46,830 --> 01:14:48,490
No. Nothing yet.

772
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:57,240
Generally speaking, persons who run away
from things are not popular with me. You

773
01:14:57,240 --> 01:15:02,000
must grasp the nettle of life, and it
won't sting you.

774
01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:05,680
Miss Trotwood, this unhappy boy has a
sullen and rebellious spirit, a

775
01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:10,000
violent temper, and an untoward and
intractable disposition.

776
01:16:10,620 --> 01:16:14,240
Of all the boys in the world, I believe
this is the worst boy.

777
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:18,540
Strong, but not at all strong for the
facts, ma'am.

778
01:16:21,120 --> 01:16:23,140
I am come to take him back, ma'am.

779
01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:25,660
To take him back unconditionally.

780
01:16:26,570 --> 01:16:32,270
to dispose of him as I think proper, and
to deal with him as I think right.

781
01:16:34,470 --> 01:16:36,930
Really? I must caution you, Miss
Trotwood.

782
01:16:37,930 --> 01:16:42,030
If you step in between him and me now,
you step in forever.

783
01:16:43,990 --> 01:16:44,990
What?

784
01:16:45,970 --> 01:16:47,750
I will not travel.

785
01:16:48,530 --> 01:16:49,830
Is he ready to go?

786
01:16:51,210 --> 01:16:55,450
For if he is not, my door will be closed
against him forever.

787
01:16:56,620 --> 01:16:59,980
And I take it for granted that yours is
open on the same basis.

788
01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:03,620
Good Lord.

789
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:05,320
David?

790
01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:07,520
Are you ready to go?

791
01:17:08,480 --> 01:17:12,860
Please, aunt, I beg of you with all my
heart, please don't make me go with him.

792
01:17:14,740 --> 01:17:15,740
Mr.

793
01:17:16,180 --> 01:17:19,060
Dick, what shall I do with this boy?

794
01:17:22,890 --> 01:17:25,730
Have him measured for a suit of clothes
directly.

795
01:17:27,130 --> 01:17:33,070
Oh, mister, give me your hand. Your
common sense is invaluable.

796
01:17:33,510 --> 01:17:34,730
Yes, it is.

797
01:17:35,590 --> 01:17:41,330
Don't think I don't know what kind of
life you must have led that poor,

798
01:17:41,490 --> 01:17:47,730
unhappy, misdirected baby. His mother
smirking and

799
01:17:47,730 --> 01:17:52,970
lurking, making eyes at her. I'll be
bound as if you... I wouldn't say boo to

800
01:17:52,970 --> 01:17:53,789
a goose.

801
01:17:53,790 --> 01:17:57,110
I never heard anything so elegant in my
life.

802
01:17:57,470 --> 01:18:02,270
Miss Cronwood, if you were a
gentleman... Stop the nonsense.

803
01:18:02,650 --> 01:18:03,710
Don't talk to me.

804
01:18:03,990 --> 01:18:05,910
What a choice of words.

805
01:18:06,290 --> 01:18:12,210
And as for you, madam, let me see you
ride a donkey across my green again and

806
01:18:12,210 --> 01:18:15,330
as sure as you have a head on your
shoulders, I'll knock your wallet off

807
01:18:15,330 --> 01:18:16,330
and tread on it.

808
01:18:16,530 --> 01:18:21,110
I never heard anything like this person
in my life.

809
01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:32,220
Mr. Dick, the gate.

810
01:18:34,280 --> 01:18:35,840
No, no, no, no, no.

811
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:43,400
Mr. Dick, consider yourself guardian to
this child, jointly with myself.

812
01:18:43,940 --> 01:18:44,940
Guardian?

813
01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:46,840
Jointly?

814
01:18:47,620 --> 01:18:48,620
Delighted.

815
01:18:49,500 --> 01:18:50,640
Yes, very well.

816
01:18:51,140 --> 01:18:55,640
I've been thinking I might call you
Trotwood.

817
01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:58,200
Trotwood Copperfield.

818
01:18:59,340 --> 01:19:00,640
How would that suit you?

819
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,680
Thus, I began my new life.

820
01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:12,140
In a new name, and with everything new
about me.

821
01:19:13,060 --> 01:19:16,460
I drew a curtain down upon my life at
Murdstone and Grimby.

822
01:19:17,480 --> 01:19:21,240
Even in this narrative, I have lifted it
with a reluctant hand.

823
01:19:23,600 --> 01:19:27,220
My aunt sent me to Dr. Strong's school
in Canterbury.

824
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:31,820
and during term time I lodged with Mr.
Wickfield and his daughter Agnes.

825
01:19:34,180 --> 01:19:35,180
Agnes.

826
01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:40,500
Her mother had died in giving her birth,
and like me she was an only child.

827
01:19:41,420 --> 01:19:47,980
She quickly became my greatest friend,
my wisest counsellor, my dearest sister.

828
01:20:14,830 --> 01:20:16,450
And so the years passed.

829
01:20:18,290 --> 01:20:22,730
When I was grown to something like man's
estate, my aunt decided I should be a

830
01:20:22,730 --> 01:20:27,290
lawyer, sent me to London, and purchased
articles for me in the firm of Spello

831
01:20:27,290 --> 01:20:29,190
and Jorkins of Doctors' Commons.

832
01:20:43,610 --> 01:20:44,610
Copperfield.

833
01:20:48,970 --> 01:20:52,030
Excellent. Come in, come in.

834
01:20:59,110 --> 01:21:01,910
On the desk, if you please, Copperfield.

835
01:21:04,150 --> 01:21:09,830
To the Lord Chancellor's office, if you
please.

836
01:21:13,580 --> 01:21:14,580
Quick as you like.

837
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:25,060
Sir, I'm terribly sorry. My dear sir, I
do apologise.

838
01:21:25,440 --> 01:21:26,560
No, no, it was my fault, absolutely.

839
01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:28,340
I'm terribly sorry.

840
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:31,080
Traddles?

841
01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:34,280
Copperfield?

842
01:21:34,460 --> 01:21:36,180
David Copperfield!

843
01:21:36,400 --> 01:21:37,400
How are you?

844
01:21:37,620 --> 01:21:38,880
It's wonderful to see you.

845
01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:42,500
Can you tell I'm still, uh... Oh, you're
still pretty much the same as you were

846
01:21:42,500 --> 01:21:45,980
before. It was Tommy Traddles indeed, my
old school friend.

847
01:21:48,780 --> 01:21:53,020
My aunt had found lodgings for me in
Buckingham Street and made me a modest

848
01:21:53,020 --> 01:21:54,120
but sufficient allowance.

849
01:21:54,600 --> 01:21:58,780
And as I was about to take a short
holiday, my employer, Mr. Spenlow, had

850
01:21:58,780 --> 01:22:00,680
invited me to pass a night at his
country house.

851
01:22:03,260 --> 01:22:04,260
Handsome, eh?

852
01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:08,000
Fletcher versus Fletcher.

853
01:22:10,350 --> 01:22:14,290
A dispute between two cousins over a
boundary.

854
01:22:19,830 --> 01:22:22,690
Fletcher versus Fletcher.

855
01:22:23,310 --> 01:22:24,730
Highly lucrative.

856
01:22:25,030 --> 01:22:28,590
But then, of course, the very best sort
of professional business is...

857
01:22:28,970 --> 01:22:30,470
A disputed will.

858
01:22:30,790 --> 01:22:36,150
Very pretty pickings indeed to be had
there in the way of argument and counter

859
01:22:36,150 --> 01:22:40,150
-argument and the evidence of
interrogatory and counter-interrogatory

860
01:22:40,150 --> 01:22:41,570
and so on.

861
01:22:41,790 --> 01:22:48,790
And since the costs invariably come out
of the estate itself, both sides can go

862
01:22:48,790 --> 01:22:52,210
at it in a lively and spirited manner
with expense.

863
01:22:53,110 --> 01:22:55,390
No consideration at all.

864
01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:39,700
Welcome to my lovely Swanson.

865
01:23:40,620 --> 01:23:43,520
See, all my beautiful ones.

866
01:23:44,300 --> 01:23:47,300
Absolutely remarkable houseguests.

867
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:01,600
Copperfield.

868
01:24:02,820 --> 01:24:05,720
My daughter, Dora.

869
01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:22,580
I was swallowed up in an abyss.

870
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:26,520
There was no pausing on the brink, no
looking down or back.

871
01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:28,700
I was gone headlong.

872
01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:32,240
I loved Dora Spenlow to distraction.

873
01:24:33,600 --> 01:24:40,100
And then... And this is her confidential
friend and companion, Miss Murdstone.

874
01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:43,500
Alas, Dora has no mother living.

875
01:24:43,940 --> 01:24:46,400
I'm already acquainted with Mr
Copperfield.

876
01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:48,920
It was in his childish years.

877
01:24:50,790 --> 01:24:53,670
Circumstances have separated us since.

878
01:24:55,050 --> 01:24:56,770
I should never have known him.

879
01:25:00,450 --> 01:25:02,430
How she enchanted me.

880
01:25:02,850 --> 01:25:05,710
I was lost in blissful delirium.

881
01:25:06,090 --> 01:25:07,950
But not quite lost.

882
01:25:08,370 --> 01:25:11,270
There was still that spectre hovering.

883
01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:22,520
Hey,

884
01:26:23,940 --> 01:26:24,940
hi.

885
01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:33,840
What's his name? Excuse me, my dear, but
I must take you away to introduce you to

886
01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:35,980
somebody you've been trying to meet.

887
01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:45,400
David Copperfield. A word.

888
01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:51,120
I won't attempt to disguise the fact
that I formed an unfavorable opinion of

889
01:26:51,120 --> 01:26:52,120
you in your childhood.

890
01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:57,020
It may have been a mistaken one, or you
may have ceased to justify it.

891
01:26:57,430 --> 01:26:59,050
That is not the question between us now.

892
01:27:00,350 --> 01:27:02,350
I may have my opinion of you.

893
01:27:02,730 --> 01:27:04,650
You may have your opinion of me.

894
01:27:06,010 --> 01:27:09,590
But it is not necessary that those
opinions should come into conflict.

895
01:27:11,170 --> 01:27:12,810
It would be better if they did not.

896
01:27:15,570 --> 01:27:21,110
Let us therefore meet here as mere
distant acquaintances.

897
01:27:22,710 --> 01:27:23,710
Do you agree?

898
01:27:25,100 --> 01:27:27,200
I said I would return, Mr. Copperfield.

899
01:27:28,620 --> 01:27:31,480
Are you and Miss Mudstone talking over
old times?

900
01:27:32,020 --> 01:27:33,020
Old times?

901
01:27:34,060 --> 01:27:35,380
Hardly that, Dora, my dear.

902
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:37,880
Our acquaintance was very slight.

903
01:27:38,500 --> 01:27:40,080
Was it not, Mr. Copperfield?

904
01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:46,340
That was the moment to speak out, to say
the truth. No, shout it.

905
01:27:48,700 --> 01:27:49,700
Very slight.

906
01:27:56,650 --> 01:27:59,930
There was triumph in her eyes and
contempt.

907
01:28:04,130 --> 01:28:05,430
I can see it now.

908
01:28:06,070 --> 01:28:08,030
I can acknowledge the justice of it.

909
01:28:08,390 --> 01:28:11,230
I'd taken the easy path, the coward's
path.

910
01:28:15,090 --> 01:28:19,750
Dear God, what evil was to flow from
that fatal weakness?

911
01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:46,600
Ah, Miss Venlo. I'm surprised to see you
out here so early.

912
01:28:47,740 --> 01:28:49,260
It's the brightest time of the day.

913
01:28:49,900 --> 01:28:50,900
Don't you think so?

914
01:28:51,420 --> 01:28:52,420
It's bright to me now.

915
01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:56,120
The moment before, it was not so bright.

916
01:28:56,800 --> 01:28:57,800
Do you mean a compliment?

917
01:28:58,220 --> 01:28:59,260
Or has the weather changed?

918
01:29:00,620 --> 01:29:02,220
I'm not aware of any change in the
weather.

919
01:29:05,300 --> 01:29:07,380
You've just come home from Paris, I
believe. Yes.

920
01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:08,960
Have you been there?

921
01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:11,900
No, no. Oh, you should go. You would
love it so much.

922
01:29:14,060 --> 01:29:15,660
Do you travel a great deal, Mr
Copperfield?

923
01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:20,200
Well, I'm going down to Yarmouth in a
day or two to see old friends.

924
01:29:21,540 --> 01:29:24,080
Yarmouth is quite on the coast, is it
not?

925
01:29:25,540 --> 01:29:26,540
Yes.

926
01:29:27,220 --> 01:29:28,220
Miss Spenlow.

927
01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:29,240
Dora!

928
01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:30,640
Dora!

929
01:29:32,660 --> 01:29:33,660
Tiresome creature.

930
01:29:34,220 --> 01:29:37,300
I can't think why Papa chose such a
vexatious thing to be my companion.

931
01:29:43,470 --> 01:29:47,190
It is very disagreeable having such a
gloomy old person always following one

932
01:29:47,190 --> 01:29:50,670
about. Here, perhaps you should say
something to your father.

933
01:29:50,930 --> 01:29:51,930
I wouldn't dare.

934
01:29:52,370 --> 01:29:53,650
Your father wants you.

935
01:29:55,090 --> 01:29:56,090
Hurry now.

936
01:30:00,970 --> 01:30:02,170
Goodbye, Mr Copperfield.

937
01:30:07,930 --> 01:30:12,130
Remember, we meet here as mere distant
acquaintances.

938
01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:13,900
The past is buried.

939
01:30:15,440 --> 01:30:19,980
I barely heard her. Mr. Copperfield. My
head was full of Dora.

940
01:30:21,380 --> 01:30:23,180
Dora. Mr. Copperfield. Dora.

941
01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:26,300
Dora. Do you hear me, Mr. Copperfield?

942
01:30:26,980 --> 01:30:30,400
I returned to my lodgings in town in a
sort of trance.

943
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:35,820
I made some attempts to work at the book
I was writing, but it was no good,

944
01:30:35,920 --> 01:30:39,840
because in every sentence the word Dora
would inadvertently appear.

945
01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:44,900
At length, I determined to seek
distraction at the playhouse.

946
01:30:58,400 --> 01:30:59,480
Mr. Mudstone.

947
01:31:00,620 --> 01:31:01,620
David.

948
01:31:05,100 --> 01:31:06,160
You're going out?

949
01:31:08,340 --> 01:31:10,800
I... I was going to the play.

950
01:31:14,190 --> 01:31:15,470
I shall not detain you.

951
01:31:17,490 --> 01:31:21,090
I received a note from my sister this
afternoon.

952
01:31:21,790 --> 01:31:25,290
The chances of life, it seems, have
brought you together again.

953
01:31:27,250 --> 01:31:28,250
Yes.

954
01:31:30,050 --> 01:31:34,830
My sister has no wish to revive the
memory of past...

955
01:31:34,830 --> 01:31:37,210
differences?

956
01:31:39,810 --> 01:31:42,350
I've already agreed as such with Miss
Murdstone.

957
01:31:43,690 --> 01:31:45,950
You will honor that agreement, I hope,
David.

958
01:31:50,990 --> 01:31:57,550
You may imagine that you have much to
tell of her, and of me, to our

959
01:31:57,550 --> 01:31:58,550
detriment.

960
01:32:00,530 --> 01:32:05,750
But equally, we have much we could say
about you.

961
01:32:07,250 --> 01:32:12,410
Can you think that I would wish to
resurrect the past, Mr. Murdston?

962
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:18,140
It is far too painful to me.

963
01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:22,260
Then I shall detain you.

964
01:32:23,040 --> 01:32:24,040
No further.

965
01:32:36,020 --> 01:32:37,560
The present, Mrs. Murdstone.

966
01:32:38,860 --> 01:32:41,300
I would crave the honor of making her
known to you.

967
01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:44,920
But I must not keep you from the play.

968
01:32:52,520 --> 01:32:55,900
That pale, forlorn figure haunts me to
this day.

969
01:32:57,040 --> 01:32:58,560
I knew what her life was.

970
01:32:59,240 --> 01:33:03,120
I knew how he was crushing the spirit
from her, as he had done to my poor

971
01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:04,120
mother.

972
01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:11,880
I wanted to speak, but I dared not, and
knew not what to

973
01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:12,880
say.

974
01:33:25,290 --> 01:33:27,030
So I went to the play.

975
01:33:27,970 --> 01:33:32,010
As I came out after the performance, I
encountered another ghost of my

976
01:33:32,010 --> 01:33:36,570
childhood. But here was no grim spectre
to resurrect all the pain of it, but a

977
01:33:36,570 --> 01:33:40,030
bright spirit to revive the few fleeting
moments of content.

978
01:33:40,470 --> 01:33:42,570
It was James Steerforth.

979
01:33:44,430 --> 01:33:47,790
Steerforth! My friend and protector of
Salem House School.

980
01:33:48,390 --> 01:33:49,390
Steerforth!

981
01:33:53,070 --> 01:33:54,410
Steerforth! Wait!

982
01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:57,020
It is, steer forth.

983
01:34:07,380 --> 01:34:09,120
You don't recognise me, I'm afraid.

984
01:34:11,480 --> 01:34:13,820
Oh, my God, it's little Copperfield.

985
01:34:14,660 --> 01:34:17,460
Well, you're just what you always were
now, a looker, so you're not changed in

986
01:34:17,460 --> 01:34:18,119
the least.

987
01:34:18,120 --> 01:34:19,420
My dearest, steer forth.

988
01:34:19,960 --> 01:34:22,320
I never, never, never was so glad.

989
01:34:23,150 --> 01:34:25,850
I'm overjoyed to see you again. Well,
what the devil are you doing here?

990
01:34:26,090 --> 01:34:27,090
I was at the play.

991
01:34:27,230 --> 01:34:29,490
What a delightful and magnificent
entertainment.

992
01:34:30,530 --> 01:34:33,650
My dear young Davy.

993
01:34:36,490 --> 01:34:37,490
You're a daisy.

994
01:34:38,210 --> 01:34:41,970
A daisy at the field of sunrise is not
fresher than you are.

995
01:34:42,770 --> 01:34:46,810
I thought it was the worst play I ever
saw in my life.

996
01:34:47,870 --> 01:34:49,750
It was a perfectly miserable business.

997
01:34:55,210 --> 01:34:57,430
Forgive me, Stifforth. The wine shop was
closed.

998
01:34:57,670 --> 01:34:59,330
I had to go to the tavern.

999
01:34:59,570 --> 01:35:01,210
Are you writing a book, Daisy?

1000
01:35:01,950 --> 01:35:02,950
Oh, it's nothing.

1001
01:35:03,430 --> 01:35:04,530
Stories and sketches.

1002
01:35:04,810 --> 01:35:05,930
You always loved books.

1003
01:35:08,390 --> 01:35:09,530
And romances.

1004
01:35:11,330 --> 01:35:13,870
I remember when you used to read to me.

1005
01:35:15,590 --> 01:35:17,230
Not much use to company, I'm afraid.

1006
01:35:17,930 --> 01:35:19,170
When do you go to Yarmouth?

1007
01:35:19,870 --> 01:35:20,870
Tomorrow.

1008
01:35:22,370 --> 01:35:24,410
London's devilish style at the moment.

1009
01:35:25,260 --> 01:35:26,940
And I have some thoughts of buying a
boat.

1010
01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:29,940
If you could bear my company, I'll come
down with you.

1011
01:35:31,480 --> 01:35:34,520
My dear Steerforth, I'd be honored and
delighted.

1012
01:35:35,780 --> 01:35:37,200
Well, that's settled, then.

1013
01:35:39,960 --> 01:35:43,820
And so we went together on that fateful
journey.

1014
01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:46,380
I'll see you shortly. Take care.

1015
01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:49,820
Upon our arrival, we parted.

1016
01:35:50,300 --> 01:35:54,680
Steerforth to explore the town. I to see
Peggy and her husband, Barkis.

1017
01:35:55,070 --> 01:35:56,070
who was ailing.

1018
01:36:08,110 --> 01:36:12,370
Davy! Oh my darling boy!

1019
01:36:16,650 --> 01:36:20,030
Let me look at you!

1020
01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:27,840
Barcus will be so glad.

1021
01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:30,820
It'll do him more good than a pint of
liniment.

1022
01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:32,080
How is he?

1023
01:36:32,660 --> 01:36:33,660
Bad.

1024
01:36:34,060 --> 01:36:35,060
Very bad.

1025
01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:37,080
It's the rheumatics.

1026
01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:39,780
Will you come up and see him, my dear?

1027
01:36:42,260 --> 01:36:46,120
Well, Barcus, here's medicine for you.

1028
01:36:59,150 --> 01:37:00,150
Master David?

1029
01:37:01,610 --> 01:37:02,850
That you, sir?

1030
01:37:03,190 --> 01:37:04,630
It is, Mr. Bacchus.

1031
01:37:05,390 --> 01:37:06,390
Oh.

1032
01:37:07,870 --> 01:37:12,270
You will forgive me for not shaking
hands, sir.

1033
01:37:16,950 --> 01:37:23,770
But if you was to shake the tarsal of my
nightcap, I'd

1034
01:37:23,770 --> 01:37:24,770
take it friendly.

1035
01:37:35,970 --> 01:37:40,750
I'm sorry to see you like this, Mr.
Barkis. Well, I'd be sorry for myself,

1036
01:37:40,890 --> 01:37:41,890
sir.

1037
01:37:43,810 --> 01:37:45,610
If it weren't for a certain lady.

1038
01:37:51,190 --> 01:37:54,330
She's the usefulest and best of all
women, sir.

1039
01:37:54,810 --> 01:37:56,530
The CP Barkis.

1040
01:37:57,590 --> 01:37:58,950
No Barkis.

1041
01:37:59,390 --> 01:38:00,750
And that's true, sir.

1042
01:38:02,490 --> 01:38:04,310
That's as true as turnips is.

1043
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:08,440
It's as true as taxes is.

1044
01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:11,660
And nothing's truer than them.

1045
01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:19,940
A wild place, is it not, Steerforth?

1046
01:38:20,140 --> 01:38:22,200
The sea roars as if it were hungry for
us.

1047
01:38:24,780 --> 01:38:25,780
There it is.

1048
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:35,000
It's little Emily.

1049
01:38:46,830 --> 01:38:47,830
Master Davey?

1050
01:38:48,550 --> 01:38:50,210
This is my friend, Steerforth.

1051
01:38:51,010 --> 01:38:52,830
Steerforth, this is Emily. I think I've
mentioned her.

1052
01:38:53,450 --> 01:38:55,150
You were Daisy's childhood friend.

1053
01:38:55,430 --> 01:38:57,270
You played together and dreamed
together.

1054
01:38:57,730 --> 01:39:00,270
He was to be a great writer and you were
a fine lady.

1055
01:39:00,690 --> 01:39:01,770
You told him that?

1056
01:39:03,250 --> 01:39:04,430
How else would I know?

1057
01:39:05,230 --> 01:39:06,710
It were a foolish dream.

1058
01:39:07,910 --> 01:39:08,910
I'm older now.

1059
01:39:09,230 --> 01:39:10,230
And wiser.

1060
01:39:11,550 --> 01:39:12,550
I hope so.

1061
01:39:13,610 --> 01:39:15,790
We trade our dreams for what we call
wisdom.

1062
01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:19,360
I wonder, is it a good exchange?

1063
01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:23,660
Master Davy!

1064
01:39:25,480 --> 01:39:27,120
Master Davy!

1065
01:39:27,340 --> 01:39:29,380
Master Davy!

1066
01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:32,680
Davy!

1067
01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:37,680
This little Emily of ours ain't my
daughter, sir.

1068
01:39:37,920 --> 01:39:39,920
So I understand, Mr. Peggerton.

1069
01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:42,640
But I couldn't love her more.

1070
01:39:43,140 --> 01:39:44,480
Well, I'm sure you couldn't.

1071
01:39:45,240 --> 01:39:52,180
Now... There's a certain person that has
known our

1072
01:39:52,180 --> 01:39:56,360
little Emily ever since the time her
father was drownded. Not much of a

1073
01:39:56,360 --> 01:39:57,440
person to look at.

1074
01:39:57,800 --> 01:40:00,320
Something of my build. Rough.

1075
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:04,440
Good deal of the Sal Wester about him.
Very salt.

1076
01:40:05,300 --> 01:40:07,360
But he's a decent enough person.

1077
01:40:07,740 --> 01:40:09,400
And his heart's in the right place.

1078
01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:13,160
Now, what do you think?

1079
01:40:13,530 --> 01:40:19,750
This here blessed tarpaulin go and do,
he loses that there art of his to our

1080
01:40:19,750 --> 01:40:20,750
little Amelie.

1081
01:40:21,010 --> 01:40:26,950
All of a sudden, one evening, comes
Amelie from her work and him with her.

1082
01:40:28,450 --> 01:40:31,270
Now look here, he cries out, joyful.

1083
01:40:32,210 --> 01:40:34,470
This is to be my little wife.

1084
01:40:35,170 --> 01:40:38,910
And she says, half bold, half shy.

1085
01:40:39,730 --> 01:40:41,990
Yes, uncle, if you please.

1086
01:40:44,139 --> 01:40:46,100
If I please.

1087
01:40:47,340 --> 01:40:53,580
Will you take up your glasses, one and
all? Oh, and for you, Mrs. Gummidge.

1088
01:40:55,160 --> 01:41:00,020
I gives you our Emily and her Anne.

1089
01:41:00,760 --> 01:41:02,160
Emily and her Anne.

1090
01:41:12,910 --> 01:41:14,850
Most engaging little beauty, am I?

1091
01:41:16,090 --> 01:41:18,470
He's a rather chuckle-headed fellow,
isn't he?

1092
01:41:20,430 --> 01:41:23,830
Still, it's a quaint place, and they
certainly are quaint company.

1093
01:41:24,670 --> 01:41:28,930
It's quite a new sensation, the mixed
room.

1094
01:41:31,450 --> 01:41:36,190
The next day, I took the coach to
Blunderston, to the graveyard where my

1095
01:41:36,190 --> 01:41:38,650
father and mother lay side by side.

1096
01:41:40,110 --> 01:41:45,410
The breeze in the yew trees seemed to
whisper of old days, those happy days

1097
01:41:45,410 --> 01:41:47,630
before my mother married Mr. Murdston.

1098
01:41:48,470 --> 01:41:50,670
And something else it seemed to whisper.

1099
01:41:51,770 --> 01:41:52,870
A name.

1100
01:41:53,670 --> 01:41:56,810
The name Dora Spenlow.

1101
01:41:59,890 --> 01:42:04,270
I got back to Yarmouth earlier than
expected, my head still full of that

1102
01:42:04,270 --> 01:42:07,310
name, which to my fevered fancy sounded
like a spell.

1103
01:42:08,710 --> 01:42:09,890
Anyway, it's been a delight.

1104
01:42:10,690 --> 01:42:11,690
I'll see you soon.

1105
01:42:14,790 --> 01:42:15,790
Daisy!

1106
01:42:18,430 --> 01:42:19,430
You're back!

1107
01:42:26,690 --> 01:42:28,390
We met by chance in the street.

1108
01:42:29,250 --> 01:42:31,630
Charming little creature. Pity she never
had an education.

1109
01:42:33,290 --> 01:42:34,770
Listen, Daisy.

1110
01:42:38,380 --> 01:42:41,480
If anything should ever happen, separate
us.

1111
01:42:42,360 --> 01:42:44,400
You must always think of me at my best,
old boy.

1112
01:42:45,240 --> 01:42:46,820
Steerforth. No, come.

1113
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:50,180
Let us make that bargain.

1114
01:42:50,600 --> 01:42:53,280
You have no best to me, Steerforth, no
worst.

1115
01:42:54,240 --> 01:42:55,780
You're loved equally in my heart.

1116
01:42:57,720 --> 01:42:58,720
Good.

1117
01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:00,200
Good.

1118
01:43:11,210 --> 01:43:12,750
Do you like music, Mr Copperfield?

1119
01:43:13,370 --> 01:43:14,470
It's very beautiful.

1120
01:43:18,270 --> 01:43:19,270
Miss Spenlow.

1121
01:43:19,510 --> 01:43:21,130
I like this piece very much.

1122
01:43:21,890 --> 01:43:23,510
But it makes me so sad.

1123
01:43:26,330 --> 01:43:27,330
Dora.

1124
01:43:31,590 --> 01:43:33,290
My dearest, dearest Dora.

1125
01:43:33,990 --> 01:43:34,990
I love you.

1126
01:43:35,970 --> 01:43:39,770
I've loved you every minute of every day
and every night since I first saw you,

1127
01:43:39,810 --> 01:43:40,810
Dora.

1128
01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:42,720
I'll die without you.

1129
01:43:43,280 --> 01:43:44,280
Don't kill me.

1130
01:43:44,740 --> 01:43:46,920
Say you love me too. Say you'll be mine.

1131
01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:49,380
I can't marry without Papa's consent.

1132
01:43:51,980 --> 01:43:52,980
Dora, you mean?

1133
01:43:54,240 --> 01:43:56,100
Dora, my beloved.

1134
01:43:57,220 --> 01:43:59,840
Let's go now and ask him. No, that's too
soon.

1135
01:44:00,220 --> 01:44:01,720
Once you're established in the law.

1136
01:44:02,020 --> 01:44:03,260
But that could take years.

1137
01:44:03,520 --> 01:44:06,620
And I'm dying of love for you. We must
be careful.

1138
01:44:07,300 --> 01:44:09,240
Papa would get cross. I know he would.

1139
01:44:15,980 --> 01:44:16,980
Don't look sad.

1140
01:44:17,740 --> 01:44:19,060
We will meet often.

1141
01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:21,000
And you may write to me.

1142
01:44:22,360 --> 01:44:23,360
I may.

1143
01:44:23,840 --> 01:44:25,900
But in secret, always in secret.

1144
01:44:26,380 --> 01:44:28,820
You must address your letters to my maid
Hetty.

1145
01:44:32,820 --> 01:44:33,820
Dora.

1146
01:44:34,380 --> 01:44:36,160
Dora. Dora, my angel.

1147
01:45:10,730 --> 01:45:13,310
Good evening, Mr. Wickfield. David, this
is Mr. Waterman.

1148
01:45:13,570 --> 01:45:14,570
David, sir?

1149
01:45:14,910 --> 01:45:16,830
I saw your aunt last week. She was well.

1150
01:45:17,990 --> 01:45:18,990
She's always well.

1151
01:45:20,050 --> 01:45:21,470
I won't keep you from Agnes.

1152
01:45:22,170 --> 01:45:23,170
She's just over there.

1153
01:45:24,130 --> 01:45:25,130
Thank you, sir.

1154
01:45:27,530 --> 01:45:29,710
They've always been like brothers and
sisters. Oh.

1155
01:45:36,510 --> 01:45:37,510
Excuse me.

1156
01:45:37,650 --> 01:45:38,910
Trotwood. Agnes.

1157
01:45:39,450 --> 01:45:40,650
How good it is to see you again.

1158
01:45:41,090 --> 01:45:43,270
Now, I must have your news quick-drop
before we're interrupted.

1159
01:45:44,270 --> 01:45:46,310
First, how do you like Doctor's
comments?

1160
01:45:46,690 --> 01:45:48,670
Second, are you still writing that book
of yours?

1161
01:45:49,270 --> 01:45:51,770
And third, who are you in love with?

1162
01:45:55,370 --> 01:45:58,230
As to your first, I like Doctor's
comments very well.

1163
01:45:58,810 --> 01:46:02,310
As to your second, I fear my book will
never be finished.

1164
01:46:03,350 --> 01:46:07,210
And as to your third, why should you
think I'm in love with anybody?

1165
01:46:08,170 --> 01:46:09,910
Are we not as brother and sister, Trot?

1166
01:46:10,210 --> 01:46:11,210
Don't I know you?

1167
01:46:13,030 --> 01:46:14,050
Perhaps I've changed.

1168
01:46:20,750 --> 01:46:24,250
Why, Trotwood, I do believe you are in
love.

1169
01:46:27,490 --> 01:46:30,250
But certainly you may not give yourself
over to it till you have finished your

1170
01:46:30,250 --> 01:46:32,090
book. Why do you say you never will?

1171
01:46:33,830 --> 01:46:36,470
It's a hopeless jumble of stories and
sketches.

1172
01:46:37,310 --> 01:46:38,630
Is there not some common theme?

1173
01:46:39,450 --> 01:46:40,450
Well, yes.

1174
01:46:40,990 --> 01:46:41,990
What?

1175
01:46:42,810 --> 01:46:43,810
Modern life.

1176
01:46:43,990 --> 01:46:46,050
My idea is to turn them into a novel.

1177
01:46:47,110 --> 01:46:48,150
I know not how.

1178
01:46:48,670 --> 01:46:49,670
Well, then don't.

1179
01:46:49,870 --> 01:46:51,350
Let them stand as they are.

1180
01:46:52,410 --> 01:46:55,550
Call them sketches of modern life.

1181
01:46:57,490 --> 01:46:58,930
There aren't enough to make a book.

1182
01:46:59,550 --> 01:47:00,550
Write some more.

1183
01:47:04,490 --> 01:47:05,490
Ah!

1184
01:47:05,870 --> 01:47:07,580
More! Master Copperfield.

1185
01:47:09,660 --> 01:47:12,640
Oh, well, Mr Copperfield, I should say.

1186
01:47:13,560 --> 01:47:14,560
Uriah Heep?

1187
01:47:15,200 --> 01:47:17,480
Only the other comes so natural.

1188
01:47:18,420 --> 01:47:23,840
How are you? Oh, honoured indeed, sir,
to be noticed by you in such company. I

1189
01:47:23,840 --> 01:47:28,980
mean, so many great stars of the legal
firmament. One is quite crushed by a

1190
01:47:28,980 --> 01:47:30,980
feeling of extreme humbleness. My
father.

1191
01:47:36,590 --> 01:47:40,150
Unwanted, it seems. If you will excuse
me, Master. No, Mr.

1192
01:47:40,650 --> 01:47:41,650
Copperfield.

1193
01:47:44,730 --> 01:47:46,510
What the devil is he doing here?

1194
01:47:47,350 --> 01:47:48,850
Papa has made him his partner.

1195
01:47:56,630 --> 01:47:57,630
It's true.

1196
01:47:58,430 --> 01:47:59,430
But how?

1197
01:47:59,610 --> 01:48:00,610
Why?

1198
01:48:01,930 --> 01:48:03,730
He's mastered my poor father's
weaknesses.

1199
01:48:04,410 --> 01:48:05,410
Lost them.

1200
01:48:05,630 --> 01:48:08,770
Taken advantage of them until...

1201
01:48:08,770 --> 01:48:15,530
Vipara's afraid of him.

1202
01:48:18,050 --> 01:48:21,170
For my sake, for Vipara's sake, be
friendly to Uriah.

1203
01:48:22,510 --> 01:48:24,110
I must take her from you, Trotwood.

1204
01:49:02,960 --> 01:49:04,420
Good copper field.

1205
01:49:06,280 --> 01:49:09,180
Delightful. Come and meet Sir George
Dixon.

1206
01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:13,660
George, I'm the Spenlow, don't you? I
know a fellow.

1207
01:49:14,160 --> 01:49:16,140
Dearest, dearest Dora. Be careful.

1208
01:49:16,460 --> 01:49:17,680
If the past you suspect.

1209
01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:21,840
I never dreamt you might be here.

1210
01:49:22,420 --> 01:49:26,020
Papa would bring me to think how I
resisted and complained.

1211
01:49:27,020 --> 01:49:28,140
Did you get my letter?

1212
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:30,760
Hush. Did you?

1213
01:49:31,760 --> 01:49:32,760
Foolish boy.

1214
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:34,380
Such a flood of words.

1215
01:49:35,760 --> 01:49:38,040
I swear I didn't understand one half of
them.

1216
01:49:43,380 --> 01:49:44,380
Trot?

1217
01:49:46,160 --> 01:49:47,160
Dora.

1218
01:49:47,360 --> 01:49:48,360
Miss Penlow.

1219
01:49:48,650 --> 01:49:49,990
May I present Mrs. Wickfield.

1220
01:49:50,830 --> 01:49:51,910
Agnes, this is Miss Spenlow.

1221
01:49:52,550 --> 01:49:55,270
When I was at school at Canterbury, I
lodged with Miss Wickfield and her

1222
01:49:55,270 --> 01:49:56,270
father. How nice.

1223
01:49:56,490 --> 01:49:58,310
Have you recently arrived, Miss Spenlow?
Just now.

1224
01:49:58,710 --> 01:49:59,710
Excuse me, ladies.

1225
01:50:00,250 --> 01:50:03,430
Copperfield, I want you to meet Sir
George Dixon.

1226
01:50:05,570 --> 01:50:06,570
Excuse me.

1227
01:50:08,030 --> 01:50:10,870
Are you connected in any way to Spenlow
and Jorkins? He's my papa.

1228
01:50:18,220 --> 01:50:19,520
Oh.

1229
01:50:53,260 --> 01:50:54,260
How did you find Miss Wickfield?

1230
01:50:55,580 --> 01:50:58,060
Very, very agreeable. Yeah. And so
clever.

1231
01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:02,240
I think if I had her as a friend a long
time ago, I might be clever myself by

1232
01:51:02,240 --> 01:51:03,240
now.

1233
01:51:03,260 --> 01:51:07,580
Nonsense. There's so many books she's
read, and such books, poetry and history

1234
01:51:07,580 --> 01:51:08,580
and philosophy.

1235
01:51:09,680 --> 01:51:11,140
She quite frightens me.

1236
01:51:11,640 --> 01:51:13,220
I've seen you sometimes with a book.

1237
01:51:13,580 --> 01:51:17,100
But only some foolish romance full of
dukes and diamonds and doomed passion.

1238
01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:21,100
I wonder how he could ever fall in love
with me.

1239
01:51:22,540 --> 01:51:24,040
How could I see you and not love you?

1240
01:51:24,540 --> 01:51:26,460
I suppose you'd never seen me at all.

1241
01:51:27,360 --> 01:51:28,680
I suppose we'd never been born.

1242
01:51:40,420 --> 01:51:41,080
What did you

1243
01:51:41,080 --> 01:51:49,380
think

1244
01:51:49,380 --> 01:51:50,239
of her?

1245
01:51:50,240 --> 01:51:51,260
Of Miss Spenlow?

1246
01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:54,000
And you say you're not in love, Trot?

1247
01:51:55,320 --> 01:51:56,520
What did you think of that?

1248
01:51:58,840 --> 01:51:59,840
Does her father know?

1249
01:52:05,180 --> 01:52:06,180
Then be careful.

1250
01:52:17,140 --> 01:52:18,280
Master Copperfield!

1251
01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:20,720
Master Copperfield!

1252
01:52:24,650 --> 01:52:26,190
What a wonderful party.

1253
01:52:26,790 --> 01:52:29,170
Except you and I had hardly any chance
to talk.

1254
01:52:30,190 --> 01:52:33,110
You have heard something, I dare say, of
the change in my circumstances.

1255
01:52:34,270 --> 01:52:35,270
Yes.

1256
01:52:35,730 --> 01:52:38,190
What a worthy man Mr. Wickfield is.

1257
01:52:38,490 --> 01:52:39,670
Oh, but he's been included.

1258
01:52:40,190 --> 01:52:44,750
Oh, very much so. Now, it's a topic I
would not touch on to any sober you.

1259
01:52:45,630 --> 01:52:46,990
No, there would have been great loss.

1260
01:52:48,310 --> 01:52:49,690
Disgrace. I don't know what all.

1261
01:52:50,350 --> 01:52:53,050
But I was able to be the humble
instrument of his salvation.

1262
01:52:53,800 --> 01:52:56,660
So he has put me on an eminence I could
never hope to have reached.

1263
01:52:57,660 --> 01:52:59,820
I congratulate you. Oh, thank you.

1264
01:53:00,380 --> 01:53:04,140
You will not think the worse of my
humbleness if I make a tiny confidence

1265
01:53:04,140 --> 01:53:05,140
to you.

1266
01:53:06,900 --> 01:53:07,900
No.

1267
01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:12,860
Did you not think that Miss Agnes
Swetfield was looking very beautiful

1268
01:53:12,860 --> 01:53:13,860
tonight?

1269
01:53:15,880 --> 01:53:16,880
Yes, I did.

1270
01:53:17,040 --> 01:53:18,660
Oh, thank you.

1271
01:53:19,860 --> 01:53:20,860
Why thank me?

1272
01:53:21,770 --> 01:53:25,210
Well, that is the confidence that I take
the liberty of reposing.

1273
01:53:27,050 --> 01:53:32,450
Look, humble as I am, Master
Copperfield, the image of Agnes

1274
01:53:32,450 --> 01:53:35,070
Wickfield has been in my breast for
years.

1275
01:53:38,830 --> 01:53:45,790
Oh, Master Copperfield, what a pure
affection do I worship the ground my

1276
01:53:45,790 --> 01:53:46,790
Agnes walks on.

1277
01:53:50,410 --> 01:53:53,710
Have you made these feelings known to
her?

1278
01:53:54,070 --> 01:53:57,150
Oh, dear, no, no, no, no, no. Not to any
soul but you.

1279
01:53:57,770 --> 01:53:59,430
No, she's very young still.

1280
01:54:00,650 --> 01:54:02,070
There's no rush at present.

1281
01:54:02,670 --> 01:54:04,190
And I have to work my way upwards.

1282
01:54:04,910 --> 01:54:07,990
There will be time presently to make her
familiar with my oats.

1283
01:54:08,750 --> 01:54:10,010
There's opportunities offer.

1284
01:54:11,310 --> 01:54:12,950
I go this way towards the city.

1285
01:54:13,870 --> 01:54:14,870
I go that way.

1286
01:54:15,610 --> 01:54:16,690
Then we part here.

1287
01:54:17,650 --> 01:54:18,790
If you'll have the goodness.

1288
01:54:19,470 --> 01:54:20,490
To keep my secret.

1289
01:54:21,010 --> 01:54:22,810
Not general to go against me.

1290
01:54:23,670 --> 01:54:25,390
I'll take it as a particular favour.

1291
01:54:29,210 --> 01:54:32,490
Look, you are as a brother to a master
Copperfield.

1292
01:54:34,850 --> 01:54:36,870
You wouldn't wish to make
unpleasantness.

1293
01:54:41,010 --> 01:54:42,690
Well, I'll bid you goodnight.

1294
01:54:52,940 --> 01:54:55,720
At first, I was too angry to think
clearly.

1295
01:54:56,940 --> 01:55:02,260
Later, when I was master of myself
enough for reflection, I judged that the

1296
01:55:02,260 --> 01:55:06,900
best course was to do nothing, to keep
to myself what I'd heard.

1297
01:55:07,860 --> 01:55:12,280
The reader may by now be starting to
form an opinion about the soundness of

1298
01:55:12,280 --> 01:55:13,280
my judgment.

1299
01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:18,320
It was at about that era in my life
that, while dining most abominably with

1300
01:55:18,320 --> 01:55:21,960
traddles at his lodging, chanced through
into my path another old friend.

1301
01:55:25,140 --> 01:55:26,620
To school days.

1302
01:55:27,920 --> 01:55:28,920
School days.

1303
01:55:29,560 --> 01:55:32,360
Do you remember the time I got caned by
Old Creakle?

1304
01:55:33,300 --> 01:55:37,980
My dear Trattles, Old Creakle caned you
every day of your life. He was a brute

1305
01:55:37,980 --> 01:55:38,679
to you.

1306
01:55:38,680 --> 01:55:39,860
Perhaps he was.

1307
01:55:40,280 --> 01:55:43,000
But there was a great deal of fun going
on there too.

1308
01:55:43,840 --> 01:55:47,100
Do you remember the stories you used to
tell in the bedroom after dark?

1309
01:55:47,460 --> 01:55:50,920
Old... That'll be my landlord.

1310
01:55:52,330 --> 01:55:53,330
For the rent.

1311
01:55:56,730 --> 01:55:58,830
Good evening, Mr. McCorber.

1312
01:56:04,110 --> 01:56:05,110
Mr.

1313
01:56:06,450 --> 01:56:08,210
McCorber, how do you do?

1314
01:56:09,130 --> 01:56:13,310
Well, sir, you are exceedingly obliging.
I am in state to go.

1315
01:56:14,590 --> 01:56:15,890
And Mrs. McCorber?

1316
01:56:16,470 --> 01:56:19,590
She is also, thank God, in state to go.

1317
01:56:23,940 --> 01:56:25,060
And the children?

1318
01:56:25,360 --> 01:56:30,820
Well, I rejoice to say that they are
likewise in the enjoyment of celubrity.

1319
01:56:32,180 --> 01:56:38,080
Is it possible, have I the pleasure of
again beholding Copperfield?

1320
01:56:38,560 --> 01:56:41,800
Mr. Macawber, it's so good to see you
again.

1321
01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:44,920
My dear Copperfield!

1322
01:56:45,720 --> 01:56:47,260
Mrs. Macawber!

1323
01:56:47,580 --> 01:56:48,900
Mrs. Macawber!

1324
01:56:49,360 --> 01:56:50,360
Mrs. McCobber.

1325
01:56:50,580 --> 01:56:56,260
My dear, here is a gentleman of the name
of Copperfield who wishes to renew his

1326
01:56:56,260 --> 01:56:57,320
acquaintance with you.

1327
01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:00,640
Oh,

1328
01:57:01,040 --> 01:57:05,060
my dear Copperfield.

1329
01:57:08,440 --> 01:57:10,180
This is luxurious.

1330
01:57:11,340 --> 01:57:15,220
This reminds me of a period when I and
mine were in easier circumstances.

1331
01:57:17,290 --> 01:57:21,570
Circumstances difficult, Mr. Macorber.
Until recently, I was engaged in the

1332
01:57:21,570 --> 01:57:23,590
sale of corn upon commission.

1333
01:57:23,850 --> 01:57:27,190
It was not an avocation of a
remunerative description.

1334
01:57:28,030 --> 01:57:30,350
It did not pay, Mr. Copperfield.

1335
01:57:31,430 --> 01:57:35,650
Mr. Macorber is at present without any
suitable position or employment.

1336
01:57:36,210 --> 01:57:38,270
Where does that responsibility rest?

1337
01:57:38,970 --> 01:57:40,110
With society.

1338
01:57:40,970 --> 01:57:43,650
What Mr. Macorber has to do is...

1339
01:57:43,920 --> 01:57:48,300
Throw down the gauntlet to society and
say, in effect, show me who would take

1340
01:57:48,300 --> 01:57:52,060
that up. Let the party immediately step
forward.

1341
01:57:52,720 --> 01:57:55,340
How is this to be done, exactly?

1342
01:57:55,720 --> 01:57:58,120
By advertising in papers.

1343
01:57:58,900 --> 01:58:04,460
It appears to me that what Mr. Macorber
has to do in justice to himself, in

1344
01:58:04,460 --> 01:58:09,360
justice to society, is to advertise in
all the papers.

1345
01:58:21,320 --> 01:58:22,440
How is he, Peggy T?

1346
01:58:25,360 --> 01:58:27,560
He's going out with the time.

1347
01:58:55,469 --> 01:58:56,690
He's come to himself.

1348
01:59:05,150 --> 01:59:06,230
Bacchus, my dear.

1349
01:59:11,110 --> 01:59:16,750
CP Bacchus.

1350
01:59:20,200 --> 01:59:21,660
No better woman anywhere.

1351
01:59:22,680 --> 01:59:25,940
Look, here's Master Davy.

1352
01:59:32,500 --> 01:59:33,500
Marcus

1353
01:59:33,500 --> 01:59:42,000
is

1354
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:44,540
willing.

1355
02:00:02,350 --> 02:00:06,090
I undertook the sad business of
informing Peggy's brother of their loss.

1356
02:00:07,450 --> 02:00:10,990
I had no idea that I was about to learn
of a far greater one.

1357
02:00:21,890 --> 02:00:22,890
Pam?

1358
02:00:26,650 --> 02:00:27,650
Pam, what's the matter?

1359
02:00:34,440 --> 02:00:35,440
She's run away.

1360
02:00:36,560 --> 02:00:37,560
Little Emily.

1361
02:00:38,800 --> 02:00:40,420
Pride and hope of my heart.

1362
02:00:42,240 --> 02:00:43,240
She's gone.

1363
02:00:46,620 --> 02:00:51,920
When you, who love me so much better
than I've deserved, when you read this,

1364
02:00:51,960 --> 02:00:54,040
I shall be far away.

1365
02:00:55,080 --> 02:00:59,760
When I leave my dear home in the
morning, it will be never to come back

1366
02:00:59,760 --> 02:01:02,680
unless he brings me back a lady.

1367
02:01:06,879 --> 02:01:10,780
It was no fault of yours, Marcy Davy.

1368
02:01:11,840 --> 02:01:14,440
There's no blame to be laid at your
door.

1369
02:01:15,160 --> 02:01:16,300
No fault of mine.

1370
02:01:16,640 --> 02:01:17,660
I don't understand.

1371
02:01:18,120 --> 02:01:21,340
The name of the man is Steerforth.

1372
02:01:21,960 --> 02:01:23,500
And he's a damned villain.

1373
02:01:27,680 --> 02:01:29,000
Where were you going, Daniel?

1374
02:01:30,680 --> 02:01:34,760
To find my poor niece in her shame and
bring her back.

1375
02:01:38,570 --> 02:01:40,630
I'm going to seek her far and wide.

1376
02:01:44,670 --> 02:01:50,690
If any hurt should come to me, tell her
the last words I had for her was, my

1377
02:01:50,690 --> 02:01:53,630
unchanged love is for my darling girl.

1378
02:01:55,510 --> 02:01:56,810
And I forgive her.

1379
02:01:58,290 --> 02:02:02,950
It was the first of a series of great
shocks that one after another

1380
02:02:02,950 --> 02:02:04,670
overwhelmed my young life.

1381
02:02:05,270 --> 02:02:07,050
The next was mild in comparison.

1382
02:02:07,640 --> 02:02:10,860
though momentous in its ultimate
consequences, and began innocently

1383
02:02:10,860 --> 02:02:12,600
enough with a visit to Mr. McCorber's.

1384
02:02:18,320 --> 02:02:24,960
My dear friends, you may possibly not be
unprepared to receive the

1385
02:02:24,960 --> 02:02:27,620
intimation that something has turned up.

1386
02:02:28,080 --> 02:02:32,540
I am about to establish myself in one of
the provincial towns of our favorite

1387
02:02:32,540 --> 02:02:36,100
island in immediate connection with one
of the learned professions.

1388
02:02:36,720 --> 02:02:41,140
You, therefore, find us on the brink of
migration and will excuse any little

1389
02:02:41,140 --> 02:02:43,460
discomforts incidental to that position.

1390
02:02:44,180 --> 02:02:49,540
My family may consider it a banishment,
if they please, but I am a wife and a

1391
02:02:49,540 --> 02:02:52,140
mother, and I never will desert Mr.
Macorber.

1392
02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:56,300
I consider it no sacrifice to immure
myself in the cathedral.

1393
02:02:57,390 --> 02:02:58,710
You're going to a cathedral town?

1394
02:02:59,570 --> 02:03:04,230
To Canterbury. I have entered into
arrangements by virtue of which I stand

1395
02:03:04,230 --> 02:03:08,490
pledged and contracted to Mr. Uriah
Heep. Uriah Heep?

1396
02:03:08,810 --> 02:03:13,750
To assist and serve him in the capacity
of confidential clerk.

1397
02:03:16,410 --> 02:03:18,310
Are you acquainted with Mr. Heep?

1398
02:03:19,210 --> 02:03:20,950
Yes, I am indeed, ma'am.

1399
02:03:21,310 --> 02:03:24,090
And I feel it my duty to warn you
against him.

1400
02:03:25,280 --> 02:03:30,180
My dear Copperfield, I am bound to state
to you that it was the prudent

1401
02:03:30,180 --> 02:03:35,620
suggestion of Mrs. McCobber that has
conduced to this result. The gauntlet to

1402
02:03:35,620 --> 02:03:39,800
which you referred upon a former
occasion being thrown down in the form

1403
02:03:39,800 --> 02:03:42,820
of an advertisement was taken up by my
friend Heep.

1404
02:03:43,840 --> 02:03:44,840
Your friend?

1405
02:03:45,700 --> 02:03:50,600
Well, so I flatter myself.

1406
02:03:52,560 --> 02:03:54,080
I know you're I, Heep.

1407
02:03:54,640 --> 02:03:56,140
I've known him since I was a boy.

1408
02:03:57,040 --> 02:03:59,420
He is a false, scheming creature.

1409
02:03:59,740 --> 02:04:01,620
No, Traddles, you'll bear me out.

1410
02:04:02,120 --> 02:04:06,460
He's a man not greatly admired in the
profession, sir, but much feared.

1411
02:04:08,200 --> 02:04:13,560
These are opinions to give one pause,
indeed, but certain pecuniary

1412
02:04:13,560 --> 02:04:18,520
engagements having been entered into
upon either side, grave difficulties

1413
02:04:18,520 --> 02:04:25,240
must be anticipated in any attempt by me
to extricate myself from, in short...

1414
02:04:25,240 --> 02:04:28,280
Mr. Heap has settled all our debts, Mr.
Copperfield.

1415
02:04:38,540 --> 02:04:40,160
McCorber's duly left for Canterbury.

1416
02:04:40,640 --> 02:04:44,580
I heard regularly from Agnes, and though
nothing in her letters gave me

1417
02:04:44,580 --> 02:04:49,140
particular cause to feel anxiety for
them, or her, I remained uneasy.

1418
02:04:52,820 --> 02:04:56,920
Mr. Copperfield, would you step in here
a moment?

1419
02:05:19,280 --> 02:05:20,280
Mr. Murdston?

1420
02:05:23,200 --> 02:05:24,220
Miss Murdston?

1421
02:05:24,700 --> 02:05:30,440
David? Miss Murdston, have the goodness
to show Mr. Copperfield what you've

1422
02:05:30,440 --> 02:05:31,440
shown me.

1423
02:05:37,460 --> 02:05:42,920
I believe this is your handwriting, Mr.
Copperfield.

1424
02:05:44,540 --> 02:05:45,580
It is, sir.

1425
02:05:46,410 --> 02:05:49,390
Thank you, Miss Murdstone. We won't
detain you further.

1426
02:05:49,630 --> 02:05:53,110
What? But my brother and I have come
here today in spite of the fact that he

1427
02:05:53,110 --> 02:05:55,810
lost his wife a month ago and is in
mourning, as you can see.

1428
02:05:56,090 --> 02:05:57,130
Jane Murdstone, enough.

1429
02:05:58,310 --> 02:06:00,410
My private grief is not at issue here.

1430
02:06:04,190 --> 02:06:09,310
My sister has a great deal more to say,
sir. Your sister, Mr Murdstone, has done

1431
02:06:09,310 --> 02:06:10,310
her part.

1432
02:06:10,370 --> 02:06:14,130
It is now between myself and Mr
Copperfield.

1433
02:06:17,930 --> 02:06:18,930
Very well.

1434
02:06:19,190 --> 02:06:20,510
I protest.

1435
02:06:21,010 --> 02:06:24,630
Jane. But Mr. Copperfield's behavior has
been abominable.

1436
02:06:24,910 --> 02:06:27,990
Jane Murdstone, will you hold your
tongue?

1437
02:06:43,590 --> 02:06:46,730
Well, Mr. Copperfield, have you
anything?

1438
02:06:53,780 --> 02:06:58,120
There's nothing I can say, sir, except
that all the blame is mine.

1439
02:06:59,900 --> 02:07:03,020
Dora... Miss Spenlow, I think you mean.

1440
02:07:04,600 --> 02:07:09,200
Miss Spenlow was persuaded by me to
consent to this secrecy, and I greatly

1441
02:07:09,200 --> 02:07:10,200
regret it.

1442
02:07:10,240 --> 02:07:12,820
But my love can be my only excuse.

1443
02:07:13,370 --> 02:07:16,830
Do not tell me to my face that you love
my daughter, sir.

1444
02:07:17,110 --> 02:07:20,810
Could I defend my conduct if I did not,
sir? Can you defend your conduct if you

1445
02:07:20,810 --> 02:07:21,810
do, sir?

1446
02:07:22,330 --> 02:07:29,090
Have you considered how... young my
daughter is, how young

1447
02:07:29,090 --> 02:07:33,730
you are, what your prospects are, how
many years it must be before you make a

1448
02:07:33,730 --> 02:07:35,030
penny out of the law?

1449
02:07:35,850 --> 02:07:37,370
There's my book, sir.

1450
02:07:42,160 --> 02:07:43,160
I've written a book.

1451
02:07:43,820 --> 02:07:46,640
It's with a publisher. I may get a good
price for it.

1452
02:07:48,640 --> 02:07:54,940
Such an extravagant notion, Mr
Copperfield. One hardly knows how to

1453
02:07:54,940 --> 02:07:56,020
proceed.

1454
02:07:57,980 --> 02:07:59,420
Consult your friends.

1455
02:08:00,139 --> 02:08:06,200
relations, people with some experience
of the world. See what advice they give

1456
02:08:06,200 --> 02:08:11,000
you. In the meantime, you are not to
communicate in any way with my daughter.

1457
02:08:11,180 --> 02:08:12,180
Is that agreed?

1458
02:08:17,360 --> 02:08:18,360
Yes, sir.

1459
02:08:19,020 --> 02:08:20,100
On your honor.

1460
02:08:22,260 --> 02:08:23,260
As a gentleman.

1461
02:08:24,160 --> 02:08:26,020
On my honor as a gentleman.

1462
02:08:37,890 --> 02:08:41,870
Neatly, smoothly keep your eyes on your
work. I determined to go down to Kent to

1463
02:08:41,870 --> 02:08:42,870
see my aunt.

1464
02:08:44,530 --> 02:08:48,350
Imagine my astonishment, then, to find
that very person waiting for me in my

1465
02:08:48,350 --> 02:08:49,350
rooms.

1466
02:08:51,250 --> 02:08:52,250
My dear aunt.

1467
02:08:54,730 --> 02:08:56,030
What an unexpected pleasure.

1468
02:08:56,530 --> 02:08:57,530
Trot.

1469
02:08:57,670 --> 02:08:58,670
How are you?

1470
02:08:59,490 --> 02:09:01,890
Mr. Dick, how do you do, sir? How do you
do, sir?

1471
02:09:03,890 --> 02:09:05,710
Aunt, wouldn't you be more comfortable
on the sofa?

1472
02:09:06,330 --> 02:09:07,329
No, no.

1473
02:09:07,330 --> 02:09:11,570
No, I prefer to sit upon my property. As
you wish.

1474
02:09:13,910 --> 02:09:14,910
Well?

1475
02:09:15,630 --> 02:09:19,350
Trot, have you got to be firm and
self-reliant?

1476
02:09:20,290 --> 02:09:22,370
I hope so. What do you think?

1477
02:09:23,390 --> 02:09:24,390
I think so.

1478
02:09:25,190 --> 02:09:31,090
Oh, then why, my love, do you think
Betsy Trotwood prefers to sit upon this

1479
02:09:31,090 --> 02:09:32,090
property of hers?

1480
02:09:32,310 --> 02:09:33,310
I don't know.

1481
02:09:33,510 --> 02:09:35,230
Because it's all she's got.

1482
02:09:37,429 --> 02:09:39,030
Because she's ruined.

1483
02:09:39,910 --> 02:09:40,910
Ruined?

1484
02:09:41,250 --> 02:09:43,290
Patsy Prottwood had a certain property.

1485
02:09:44,090 --> 02:09:49,330
Against the advice of her man of
business, I allude to Mr. Wickfield, she

1486
02:09:49,330 --> 02:09:51,650
invested in a gold mining venture and
lost.

1487
02:09:52,090 --> 02:09:55,050
Then she invested in a banking venture
and lost again.

1488
02:09:55,790 --> 02:10:00,690
Finally, she invested in a shipping
venture and was suckinson straight to

1489
02:10:00,690 --> 02:10:01,690
the bottom.

1490
02:10:05,680 --> 02:10:08,100
I have considered the position,
Copperfield.

1491
02:10:10,480 --> 02:10:16,180
I have even discussed the matter with,
um, Mr.

1492
02:10:16,500 --> 02:10:17,500
Jorkins.

1493
02:10:19,000 --> 02:10:25,960
Prima facie, I can see no grounds, legal
grounds, that is, to

1494
02:10:25,960 --> 02:10:32,800
cancel the agreement your aunt signed or
to return to her the money she paid.

1495
02:10:32,960 --> 02:10:33,960
Of course.

1496
02:10:34,640 --> 02:10:37,140
if it was left to me alone.

1497
02:10:38,040 --> 02:10:41,380
But, you know, Mr.

1498
02:10:42,140 --> 02:10:47,080
Jorkins... It's then, though, I... I'll
return later.

1499
02:10:47,760 --> 02:10:51,280
You won't mind if I put my case directly
to Mr. Jorkins, sir?

1500
02:10:53,200 --> 02:10:55,500
By all means!

1501
02:10:57,519 --> 02:11:03,380
but please excuse me. I have an
appointment at the Lord Chancellor's

1502
02:11:03,380 --> 02:11:04,380
office.

1503
02:11:05,060 --> 02:11:06,520
I must be going.

1504
02:11:07,620 --> 02:11:12,800
I'm sorry to say I can't advance your
object Copperfield and I too have an

1505
02:11:12,800 --> 02:11:14,380
appointment at the bank.

1506
02:11:15,180 --> 02:11:16,620
sir. sir.

1507
02:11:18,820 --> 02:11:21,100
my aunt can no longer give me an
allowance.

1508
02:11:21,560 --> 02:11:25,800
if I'm obliged to continue working here
with no salary how am I to live?

1509
02:11:26,480 --> 02:11:28,920
I see your difficulty, Copperfield.
Indeed, I do.

1510
02:11:29,340 --> 02:11:33,360
But if Mr. Spenlow objects...
Personally, he does not object, sir.

1511
02:11:34,040 --> 02:11:35,040
Personally?

1512
02:11:36,380 --> 02:11:40,100
Personally. Oh, but I assure you, there
is an objection.

1513
02:11:41,560 --> 02:11:42,720
It's hopeless, I'm afraid.

1514
02:11:43,420 --> 02:11:45,900
And now I really have got an appointment
at the bank.

1515
02:11:50,180 --> 02:11:53,720
Well, if they won't, they won't. There's
nothing to be done about it.

1516
02:11:54,700 --> 02:11:59,200
Therefore, let us look the case of Betsy
Trotwood in the face and see how it

1517
02:11:59,200 --> 02:12:01,020
stands. Mr. Dick!

1518
02:12:01,620 --> 02:12:02,620
Mr.

1519
02:12:03,140 --> 02:12:05,040
Dick has his hundred a year, thank God.

1520
02:12:05,780 --> 02:12:08,860
I have a little ready money in the
cottage, that's all.

1521
02:12:09,140 --> 02:12:10,300
The cottage must be let out.

1522
02:12:10,580 --> 02:12:11,580
Oh.

1523
02:12:12,680 --> 02:12:13,680
Oh.

1524
02:12:13,920 --> 02:12:18,440
There is a small room upstairs I could
take for Mr. Dick.

1525
02:12:18,800 --> 02:12:19,800
Yes?

1526
02:12:20,100 --> 02:12:21,420
You could have my bedroom.

1527
02:12:22,540 --> 02:12:23,560
I'll take the sofa.

1528
02:12:25,290 --> 02:12:28,430
As to money, well, there's my book.

1529
02:12:29,030 --> 02:12:33,810
If I can only get a good price for that,
I can be free of Doctor's comments and

1530
02:12:33,810 --> 02:12:34,990
marry Dora into the bargain.

1531
02:12:37,390 --> 02:12:38,390
Trot.

1532
02:12:39,030 --> 02:12:40,690
Oh, trot.

1533
02:12:41,110 --> 02:12:42,110
Quiet down.

1534
02:12:43,510 --> 02:12:47,410
Trot. You fancy yourself in love.

1535
02:12:47,710 --> 02:12:49,930
I adore her with my whole soul.

1536
02:12:50,890 --> 02:12:51,890
Doris Bedlow.

1537
02:12:53,170 --> 02:12:54,950
She's... she's very...

1538
02:12:55,440 --> 02:12:59,220
Fascinating, I suppose. My dear aunt,
nobody can form the least idea of what

1539
02:12:59,220 --> 02:13:00,400
she is. Not silly?

1540
02:13:00,720 --> 02:13:02,260
Silly. Not light-headed?

1541
02:13:02,480 --> 02:13:04,720
Light-headed. Well, I only ask.

1542
02:13:05,060 --> 02:13:10,420
In any case, we must meet reverses
boldly and not suffer them to frighten

1543
02:13:10,420 --> 02:13:14,320
us. We must learn to act the play out.
We must live misfortune downtrod.

1544
02:13:16,200 --> 02:13:20,600
I went down to Kent, quickly concluded
the business of the cottage, then went

1545
02:13:20,600 --> 02:13:23,640
to Mr. Wickfield's house where I was to
dine with him and Agnes.

1546
02:13:35,570 --> 02:13:37,810
I'm extremely glad to see you.

1547
02:13:40,070 --> 02:13:44,630
How do you find law, Mr. McCawbush? Does
it suit you?

1548
02:13:45,130 --> 02:13:49,570
To a man possessed of the higher
imaginative powers, it is limiting.

1549
02:13:49,930 --> 02:13:55,330
In professional correspondence, the mind
is not at liberty to soar to any very

1550
02:13:55,330 --> 02:13:57,170
exalted form of expression.

1551
02:13:57,960 --> 02:14:01,260
Mrs. McCobb as well, I hope. Oh, very
well, thank Gordon. Would be delighted

1552
02:14:01,260 --> 02:14:05,600
to receive you under our own roof.
Pending an elevation to more ambitious

1553
02:14:05,600 --> 02:14:10,880
domiciliary accommodation, we occupy the
humble abode that formerly gave shelter

1554
02:14:10,880 --> 02:14:13,180
to my employer Heap and his mother.

1555
02:14:13,600 --> 02:14:15,660
What? Well, where's Uriah living then?
Here.

1556
02:14:16,600 --> 02:14:17,600
And his mother?

1557
02:14:18,100 --> 02:14:19,140
In this house?

1558
02:14:19,900 --> 02:14:20,900
Trotwood.

1559
02:14:21,460 --> 02:14:26,260
The sight of her instantly put Uriah
Heap and all his works out of my mind.

1560
02:14:27,060 --> 02:14:30,300
I could not think of her troubles, only
of mine.

1561
02:14:32,380 --> 02:14:34,060
I think I shall go mad, Agnes.

1562
02:14:35,640 --> 02:14:37,340
I love her to distraction.

1563
02:14:37,920 --> 02:14:40,000
I can't eat or sleep for love of her.

1564
02:14:40,400 --> 02:14:41,940
And her father won't let me see her.

1565
02:14:42,640 --> 02:14:44,100
I can't write to her.

1566
02:14:46,800 --> 02:14:49,980
If there was one gleam of hope, but
there's none.

1567
02:14:52,330 --> 02:14:55,490
My whole soul is being crushed under the
burden of this.

1568
02:14:55,750 --> 02:14:57,010
I want to kill myself.

1569
02:14:59,170 --> 02:15:04,210
Or throw all to perdition and carry her
away, elope with her. Please don't speak

1570
02:15:04,210 --> 02:15:05,810
of such things. You torture me.

1571
02:15:08,210 --> 02:15:09,210
Torture you?

1572
02:15:10,430 --> 02:15:12,990
Well, what do you mean, Agnes?

1573
02:15:13,870 --> 02:15:20,730
What is it? What mustn't I talk of?
Dearest sister, please, tell

1574
02:15:20,730 --> 02:15:21,730
me.

1575
02:15:28,680 --> 02:15:35,340
care to hear you talk a wild impossible
things trot of elopement

1576
02:15:35,340 --> 02:15:38,880
of ruining yourself and her

1577
02:15:38,880 --> 02:15:44,400
cutting yourself off from those who

1578
02:15:44,400 --> 02:15:47,360
love you

1579
02:15:47,360 --> 02:15:52,820
dearest Agnes

1580
02:15:52,820 --> 02:15:57,040
do you think I do

1581
02:16:07,050 --> 02:16:08,050
I don't know, Trot.

1582
02:16:15,550 --> 02:16:17,950
Abandon my aunt, to whom I owe
everything?

1583
02:16:22,230 --> 02:16:23,230
Never.

1584
02:16:31,930 --> 02:16:35,650
And yet, sometimes the dead of night

1585
02:16:36,650 --> 02:16:43,250
When I cannot sleep, I seem to hear a
demon voice whisper,

1586
02:16:43,450 --> 02:16:47,190
If only you had the courage.

1587
02:16:52,990 --> 02:16:57,049
It was only when Uriah and his mother
joined us for dinner that the full

1588
02:16:57,049 --> 02:17:00,990
extent of his baneful power over that
household became apparent to me.

1589
02:17:02,570 --> 02:17:06,610
It was with some pain that I observed
the frequency with which Mr. Wickfield

1590
02:17:06,610 --> 02:17:07,930
refilled his own glass.

1591
02:17:21,650 --> 02:17:22,770
Shall we withdraw, Mum?

1592
02:17:29,610 --> 02:17:31,049
Don't sit too long tonight, Papa.

1593
02:17:55,920 --> 02:18:02,860
You know, we seldom see our present
visitor, and I should propose to give

1594
02:18:02,860 --> 02:18:04,860
him welcome in a glass.

1595
02:18:05,620 --> 02:18:10,799
Mr Copperfield, you're elf and
happiness.

1596
02:18:14,620 --> 02:18:15,620
Come,

1597
02:18:16,299 --> 02:18:18,340
fellow partner, I'll give you another
one.

1598
02:18:20,480 --> 02:18:22,240
To Agnes Wickfield.

1599
02:18:27,530 --> 02:18:32,690
Agnes Wickfield is, I am safe to say,
the divinest of her sex.

1600
02:18:36,150 --> 02:18:38,650
I'll speak out among friends, I hope.

1601
02:18:39,549 --> 02:18:42,990
To be her father is a proud distinction.

1602
02:18:44,510 --> 02:18:49,010
But to be her husband... What?

1603
02:18:49,969 --> 02:18:52,530
What? Sit down, Wickfield.

1604
02:18:53,840 --> 02:18:59,799
If I say I have an ambition to make your
Agnes my Agnes, I have as good a right

1605
02:18:59,799 --> 02:19:00,799
as any man.

1606
02:19:01,240 --> 02:19:05,719
I dare swear I have a better right to
you.

1607
02:19:06,480 --> 02:19:07,480
To you!

1608
02:19:07,719 --> 02:19:08,719
Mr. Wickfield!

1609
02:19:08,860 --> 02:19:09,860
Leave me go!

1610
02:19:10,160 --> 02:19:11,639
Take care, Wickfield.

1611
02:19:12,680 --> 02:19:14,900
That man is my torture.

1612
02:19:16,120 --> 02:19:19,280
Step by step he has robbed me of my name
and reputation.

1613
02:19:20,059 --> 02:19:24,920
My peace and quiet! My house! My home! I
kept your name and reputation for me.

1614
02:19:25,040 --> 02:19:28,120
And your peace and quiet! And your house
and home!

1615
02:19:28,400 --> 02:19:29,400
Mr Whitfield!

1616
02:19:29,840 --> 02:19:31,040
Think of Agnes.

1617
02:19:31,980 --> 02:19:33,080
Think of your daughter.

1618
02:19:33,400 --> 02:19:34,400
What's happened, I heard?

1619
02:19:59,020 --> 02:20:00,320
We'll make it all smooth tomorrow.

1620
02:20:01,780 --> 02:20:06,900
Mr. Wickfield understands his interests
when he's not in liquor.

1621
02:20:10,580 --> 02:20:16,840
Have you sometimes plucked a pear before
it was ripe, Mr. Cockfield?

1622
02:20:19,640 --> 02:20:20,640
No.

1623
02:20:20,940 --> 02:20:21,940
No, I did that.

1624
02:20:22,980 --> 02:20:23,980
Just now.

1625
02:20:25,520 --> 02:20:27,100
But it'll ripen yet.

1626
02:20:30,700 --> 02:20:31,740
Only needs attending to.

1627
02:20:35,920 --> 02:20:36,920
Henry.

1628
02:20:40,120 --> 02:20:41,240
Be careful.

1629
02:20:42,100 --> 02:20:44,380
Copperfield. I could ruin him, you know.

1630
02:20:44,860 --> 02:20:47,260
Wickfield. Oh, yes. Send him to prison.

1631
02:20:47,840 --> 02:20:48,840
You lie.

1632
02:20:48,880 --> 02:20:49,880
Do lie.

1633
02:20:51,160 --> 02:20:52,160
Ask him, then.

1634
02:20:52,400 --> 02:20:53,400
Go on.

1635
02:20:53,980 --> 02:20:54,980
Ask him.

1636
02:20:55,340 --> 02:20:57,480
Ask him about the rich rediamonds.

1637
02:21:19,660 --> 02:21:20,660
Can I do nothing?

1638
02:21:22,260 --> 02:21:25,100
I have burdened you with my own sorrows.

1639
02:21:25,780 --> 02:21:26,780
No.

1640
02:21:27,260 --> 02:21:31,160
Agnes, you'd never sacrifice yourself
out of a sense of duty.

1641
02:21:32,760 --> 02:21:35,060
You'd never bestow your hand on that
man.

1642
02:21:35,920 --> 02:21:37,520
I would kill myself first.

1643
02:21:40,080 --> 02:21:42,800
You think perhaps I shall never bestow
my hand on any man?

1644
02:21:57,390 --> 02:22:03,590
It was then, at that moment, that I
knew, if only dimly, what my true

1645
02:22:03,590 --> 02:22:04,690
feeling for her was.

1646
02:22:05,670 --> 02:22:07,810
I said nothing. What could I say?

1647
02:22:09,030 --> 02:22:13,150
In any case, the hand of fate was about
to reach out.

1648
02:22:55,730 --> 02:22:56,930
Dead. Hart.

1649
02:22:59,010 --> 02:23:02,250
These are the articles you signed with
Mr. Spenlow.

1650
02:23:02,670 --> 02:23:06,670
Now that he is... Dead, Mr. Jokins?

1651
02:23:08,130 --> 02:23:12,070
Precisely, yes. Now that he is... What
you mentioned.

1652
02:23:12,610 --> 02:23:14,470
The articles cease and determine.

1653
02:23:15,090 --> 02:23:17,650
So also does your employment here.

1654
02:23:19,110 --> 02:23:23,290
In ordinary circumstances, your... Aunt
would be entitled to have part of the

1655
02:23:23,290 --> 02:23:30,230
money she laid down, reimbursed by the
estate of the... Of the deceased,

1656
02:23:30,390 --> 02:23:31,390
Mr. Jorgen.

1657
02:23:32,250 --> 02:23:33,250
Precisely, yes.

1658
02:23:33,650 --> 02:23:36,350
By the... what you mentioned.

1659
02:23:37,370 --> 02:23:42,670
But alas, the circumstances are not
ordinary. Very, very far from ordinary.

1660
02:23:44,350 --> 02:23:45,490
There is no money.

1661
02:23:45,870 --> 02:23:46,870
There must be some.

1662
02:23:47,550 --> 02:23:48,550
Not a penny.

1663
02:23:49,330 --> 02:23:51,090
Mr. Spenlow had, it seemed...

1664
02:23:51,310 --> 02:23:54,390
Been running through money far in excess
of his income.

1665
02:23:55,650 --> 02:23:56,650
The house?

1666
02:23:57,330 --> 02:23:59,450
Rented. The carriage?

1667
02:24:00,150 --> 02:24:01,150
Hired.

1668
02:24:01,850 --> 02:24:04,390
Then what is to become of Miss Spenlow?

1669
02:24:36,840 --> 02:24:37,840
It's dreadful, sir.

1670
02:24:41,740 --> 02:24:42,740
Dora?

1671
02:24:44,020 --> 02:24:45,020
Dora!

1672
02:24:48,040 --> 02:24:49,960
There's no money.

1673
02:24:52,760 --> 02:24:55,040
I don't know what to become of me.

1674
02:24:55,960 --> 02:24:56,960
Dora.

1675
02:24:58,100 --> 02:24:59,780
If you desert me now...

1676
02:25:08,650 --> 02:25:10,370
With this ring I thee wed.

1677
02:25:10,790 --> 02:25:13,030
With this ring I thee wed.

1678
02:25:13,530 --> 02:25:15,410
With my body I thee worship.

1679
02:25:16,010 --> 02:25:17,670
With my body I thee worship.

1680
02:25:17,990 --> 02:25:21,070
And with all my worldly goods I thee
endow.

1681
02:25:21,410 --> 02:25:23,890
And with all my worldly goods I thee
endow.

1682
02:25:24,250 --> 02:25:28,430
In the name of the Father, and the Son,
and the Holy Ghost.

1683
02:25:28,770 --> 02:25:32,950
Amen. In the name of the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Ghost.

1684
02:25:33,530 --> 02:25:34,530
Amen.

1685
02:26:13,160 --> 02:26:14,900
Are you happy now, you foolish boy?

1686
02:26:15,660 --> 02:26:16,660
Very.

1687
02:26:17,040 --> 02:26:18,180
Very, very happy.

1688
02:26:31,440 --> 02:26:32,560
But was I happy?

1689
02:26:33,360 --> 02:26:34,540
I sold my book.

1690
02:26:35,020 --> 02:26:37,000
The price was not great, but sufficient.

1691
02:26:38,160 --> 02:26:40,580
Dora and I took a cottage on the
northern height of London.

1692
02:26:41,050 --> 02:26:43,710
while my aunt and Mr. Dix stayed on in
my old lodgings.

1693
02:26:44,270 --> 02:26:48,550
We had a slattern of a servant called
Mary Ann, whose written recommendation

1694
02:26:48,550 --> 02:26:51,870
proved to be a greater work of fiction
than I would ever dare attempt.

1695
02:26:52,470 --> 02:26:57,030
Her expenditure was quite phenomenal,
but we never had anything in the house.

1696
02:26:57,830 --> 02:26:58,990
They won't come right.

1697
02:27:00,210 --> 02:27:01,210
Horrid bills.

1698
02:27:02,250 --> 02:27:04,490
Horrid, horrid numbers. They won't do
anything I want.

1699
02:27:05,010 --> 02:27:08,170
They make my head ache so, and you do
nothing to help me, you nasty husband.

1700
02:27:14,120 --> 02:27:15,240
Is it a dreadful muddle?

1701
02:27:18,340 --> 02:27:19,580
It's a bit of a one, my love.

1702
02:27:21,240 --> 02:27:22,240
I'll see to this tomorrow.

1703
02:27:23,720 --> 02:27:27,240
Why not now and teach me? Because I'm
behind with my writing.

1704
02:27:28,240 --> 02:27:30,920
I believe you care more for your horrid
books than you do for me.

1705
02:27:31,320 --> 02:27:34,880
Dora. If you could have married one of
your books, I dare say you would have in

1706
02:27:34,880 --> 02:27:38,180
preference to me. How many times do I
have to tell you that this is our bread

1707
02:27:38,180 --> 02:27:39,180
and butter?

1708
02:27:40,460 --> 02:27:42,560
If I can't have peace to write, we
starve.

1709
02:27:42,950 --> 02:27:43,950
And my aunt with us.

1710
02:27:47,790 --> 02:27:48,790
Dora!

1711
02:27:49,070 --> 02:27:50,070
Dora!

1712
02:27:51,270 --> 02:27:52,290
Mary on the door!

1713
02:27:52,570 --> 02:27:53,570
She's found.

1714
02:27:54,190 --> 02:27:56,030
My darling girl is found.

1715
02:27:57,430 --> 02:27:58,670
She left him.

1716
02:27:59,270 --> 02:28:01,310
Steerforth. Aye, him.

1717
02:28:01,790 --> 02:28:06,190
She made her own poor solitary course to
London. Being close to death.

1718
02:28:06,490 --> 02:28:07,429
Mr. Peggity.

1719
02:28:07,430 --> 02:28:09,210
Oh, she'll live, sir.

1720
02:28:10,550 --> 02:28:11,830
Now she will.

1721
02:28:13,160 --> 02:28:18,100
But feeling herself close to death, she
wrote to Yarmouth and they passed one

1722
02:28:18,100 --> 02:28:19,100
word to me.

1723
02:28:19,220 --> 02:28:20,220
Where is she now?

1724
02:28:21,040 --> 02:28:23,080
Well, here, sir. In London.

1725
02:28:23,800 --> 02:28:26,620
Still weak, sir, in her health.

1726
02:28:27,420 --> 02:28:28,880
But I'll nurse her.

1727
02:28:29,620 --> 02:28:33,620
And when she's well, I'll take her away.

1728
02:28:35,160 --> 02:28:36,220
Far away.

1729
02:28:40,400 --> 02:28:42,540
I had word again from Yarmouth today,
sir.

1730
02:28:43,660 --> 02:28:49,240
He's going there, in that boat of his
from Grimsby, to seek her out.

1731
02:28:51,780 --> 02:28:55,840
Will you go down there, sir?

1732
02:28:58,340 --> 02:28:59,880
Of course, Mr. Begarty.

1733
02:29:00,740 --> 02:29:01,740
Anything.

1734
02:29:02,460 --> 02:29:03,660
Will you tell him?

1735
02:29:04,900 --> 02:29:09,400
My niece will never look upon his face
again, nor bear him company.

1736
02:29:09,870 --> 02:29:10,870
I will.

1737
02:29:11,430 --> 02:29:14,010
I travelled all night through a great
storm.

1738
02:29:14,750 --> 02:29:18,330
Gusts of rain were sweeping in from the
coast like showers of steel.

1739
02:29:19,810 --> 02:29:23,670
By the time I came to Yarmouth, it had
finally blown itself out.

1740
02:29:25,270 --> 02:29:26,730
Master Davy!

1741
02:29:28,150 --> 02:29:29,950
Davy, my darling boy!

1742
02:29:31,010 --> 02:29:33,550
What brings you here? You sent my word.

1743
02:29:35,050 --> 02:29:36,050
Dear Lord.

1744
02:29:36,650 --> 02:29:37,650
What is it?

1745
02:29:38,640 --> 02:29:39,640
He came to meet him.

1746
02:29:40,780 --> 02:29:44,040
Steerforth. Oh, dear Lord.

1747
02:29:44,600 --> 02:29:45,800
Peggy, what is it?

1748
02:30:04,720 --> 02:30:07,560
His boat foundered in the storm.

1749
02:30:08,400 --> 02:30:09,500
close to shore.

1750
02:30:10,720 --> 02:30:17,640
I saw her as she rolled and dashed like
a

1751
02:30:17,640 --> 02:30:19,120
desperate creature driven mad.

1752
02:30:20,040 --> 02:30:24,880
And a wave like a high green hillside

1753
02:30:24,880 --> 02:30:29,760
broke her to pieces.

1754
02:30:34,880 --> 02:30:37,340
He lay as if asleep.

1755
02:30:38,350 --> 02:30:40,390
as I had often seen him lie at school.

1756
02:30:51,830 --> 02:30:55,410
It was a winter of bitter, unrelenting
cold.

1757
02:30:57,070 --> 02:31:00,110
Dora was constantly ailing and often
confined to bed.

1758
02:31:03,530 --> 02:31:08,290
And then, one morning, I received a
letter in the familiar flamboyant hand

1759
02:31:08,290 --> 02:31:09,410
of Mr. Macorber.

1760
02:31:13,870 --> 02:31:14,870
Marianne!

1761
02:31:23,430 --> 02:31:24,690
My dear Anne, try this.

1762
02:31:25,390 --> 02:31:26,550
He's had the same.

1763
02:31:27,310 --> 02:31:28,370
Come in.

1764
02:31:35,400 --> 02:31:36,960
Most secret and confidential.

1765
02:31:37,800 --> 02:31:43,120
My dear Copperfield, what you hold in
your hand is the explosion of a volcano

1766
02:31:43,120 --> 02:31:44,120
long suppressed.

1767
02:31:44,360 --> 02:31:49,400
The result of an internal contest more
easily conceived than described.

1768
02:31:49,880 --> 02:31:51,920
But now the struggle is over.

1769
02:31:52,160 --> 02:31:56,740
I will put my hand in no man's hand.
Until I have blown to fragments a

1770
02:31:56,740 --> 02:31:58,960
detestable serpent. Uriah Heep!

1771
02:31:59,360 --> 02:32:01,900
Mr. McCorver summons us to Canterbury.

1772
02:32:02,160 --> 02:32:03,160
And we're going.

1773
02:32:13,230 --> 02:32:14,169
He's here.

1774
02:32:14,170 --> 02:32:18,970
Ladies and gentlemen, I trust you will
shortly witness an eruption.

1775
02:32:19,450 --> 02:32:23,950
Mr. Copperfield, Mr. Trattles, remember
when I give the word, pounce.

1776
02:32:37,230 --> 02:32:38,230
Wow.

1777
02:32:38,710 --> 02:32:42,010
Here is an unexpected pleasure.

1778
02:32:43,240 --> 02:32:45,460
To see so many old friends.

1779
02:32:47,500 --> 02:32:50,520
Why aren't you at your desk, McCall? Run
along.

1780
02:32:50,760 --> 02:32:52,940
Go on, run along. I'll talk to you
presently.

1781
02:32:53,340 --> 02:32:58,560
If there is a scoundrel on this earth of
whom I have already talked too much,

1782
02:32:58,640 --> 02:33:01,280
that scoundrel's name is he.

1783
02:33:03,720 --> 02:33:04,740
Mr. Wickfield?

1784
02:33:05,450 --> 02:33:09,670
Would you have the goodness to make
known to present company what, in a

1785
02:33:09,670 --> 02:33:13,830
moment of unadulterated despair and
benightedness of soul, you confided to

1786
02:33:13,830 --> 02:33:18,530
me? In short, the circumstances
pertaining to the loss of the

1787
02:33:18,530 --> 02:33:19,690
Richborough diamonds.

1788
02:33:26,810 --> 02:33:31,430
These valuable jewels were entrusted to
me by a client, Sir George Richborough.

1789
02:33:32,460 --> 02:33:38,840
At his direction, I took them to London
to be sold. In London, I... I mislaid

1790
02:33:38,840 --> 02:33:39,840
them. No.

1791
02:33:40,420 --> 02:33:42,520
You were drunk, Mr. Wickfield.

1792
02:33:44,040 --> 02:33:45,320
And you lost them.

1793
02:33:45,820 --> 02:33:47,440
Or they were stolen from you.

1794
02:33:47,840 --> 02:33:48,840
Stolen?

1795
02:33:50,340 --> 02:33:54,620
Present company will oblige me by
retaining that word.

1796
02:33:56,020 --> 02:34:00,520
Like a fool, instead of going to my
client and placing the facts...

1797
02:34:01,040 --> 02:34:03,540
Honestly, before him, I attempted to
cover up the loss.

1798
02:34:05,140 --> 02:34:08,360
I... I had to borrow the money to pay
Sir George.

1799
02:34:08,840 --> 02:34:12,460
But enough. No, no, I must go on. Then
sit, I beg you. Give me your hand.

1800
02:34:13,760 --> 02:34:19,820
The interest on the loan was crippling.
I... I soon became mired in debt.

1801
02:34:21,160 --> 02:34:28,000
In the end, to maintain secrecy, I was
mad enough to... to borrow the money

1802
02:34:28,000 --> 02:34:29,760
from my own clerk, Uriah Heep.

1803
02:34:32,300 --> 02:34:33,940
ever since I had been in his power.

1804
02:34:34,240 --> 02:34:35,420
Dearest Papa, enough.

1805
02:34:36,940 --> 02:34:42,220
Present company may now wish to consider
an alternative interpretation.

1806
02:34:44,800 --> 02:34:46,640
Elucidated by Mr.

1807
02:34:46,840 --> 02:34:50,940
Wickfield, the Jewels were stolen.

1808
02:34:51,440 --> 02:34:56,600
Stolen by the transcendent and immortal
hypocrite and perjurer, he.

1809
02:34:58,040 --> 02:35:00,940
You know, you're all words, Macorber.

1810
02:35:03,040 --> 02:35:04,860
Windy, empty words.

1811
02:35:07,000 --> 02:35:08,000
Where's your proof?

1812
02:35:08,540 --> 02:35:12,940
The consummate scoundrel, the
intolerable ruffian, the interminable

1813
02:35:12,940 --> 02:35:16,280
cheat and liar, the abandoned rascal
heap demands proof.

1814
02:35:16,780 --> 02:35:18,620
I say to him, here's proof.

1815
02:35:19,180 --> 02:35:21,300
That is my swan box.

1816
02:35:21,500 --> 02:35:22,920
How dare you touch it?

1817
02:35:23,160 --> 02:35:24,600
Yuri, Yuri, be humble.

1818
02:35:24,820 --> 02:35:29,840
Yuri, Yuri, be humble. Get out, mother.
Be humble, Yuri. Make terms.

1819
02:35:30,520 --> 02:35:31,520
Inquire, I say.

1820
02:35:31,870 --> 02:35:34,250
I'll humble them! Will you? Call ahead.

1821
02:35:36,390 --> 02:35:38,050
Good. Stay away, macabre.

1822
02:35:40,430 --> 02:35:41,710
That's you for this, macabre.

1823
02:35:41,950 --> 02:35:42,990
I'll kill you!

1824
02:35:43,230 --> 02:35:44,930
Be humble, Uri.

1825
02:35:45,410 --> 02:35:47,750
My Uriah means to be humble.

1826
02:35:48,030 --> 02:35:50,530
Don't mind what he says, good gentleman.

1827
02:35:50,850 --> 02:35:51,850
Hold your tongue, mother!

1828
02:35:56,050 --> 02:35:57,050
Ah.

1829
02:35:57,990 --> 02:36:00,230
Oh. The rich for a diamond.

1830
02:36:05,070 --> 02:36:06,070
How did you know that was there?

1831
02:36:12,930 --> 02:36:19,770
I never meant no harm,

1832
02:36:19,870 --> 02:36:20,870
Yuri.

1833
02:36:21,830 --> 02:36:23,350
You betrayed me!

1834
02:36:23,950 --> 02:36:24,950
Oh, never.

1835
02:36:25,170 --> 02:36:26,590
I'd die first.

1836
02:36:29,670 --> 02:36:33,270
I only wanted to see how they'd look
above my neck.

1837
02:36:36,240 --> 02:36:40,620
I only took him out for a moment... to
try him.

1838
02:36:41,340 --> 02:36:42,580
It is true.

1839
02:36:43,460 --> 02:36:46,700
I was at hand, privily and secretly.

1840
02:36:47,220 --> 02:36:52,600
It was only a moment, but enough to
prove, beyond a poor adventure, the

1841
02:36:52,600 --> 02:36:57,280
monstrous stratagem by which, in short,
prove your guilt.

1842
02:37:01,180 --> 02:37:02,180
My lord.

1843
02:37:42,830 --> 02:37:43,830
It's all here.

1844
02:37:44,570 --> 02:37:46,890
Every penny he embezzled and stole.

1845
02:37:47,170 --> 02:37:48,410
He hoarded it all.

1846
02:37:48,890 --> 02:37:50,290
My property.

1847
02:37:50,730 --> 02:37:53,170
Trot. I've got it back.

1848
02:37:53,950 --> 02:37:55,850
But, aunt, I thought you said you'd lost
it.

1849
02:37:56,190 --> 02:37:59,230
It was all invested here with Mr
Whitfield.

1850
02:37:59,810 --> 02:38:04,290
I thought it was he that made off with
it. That's why I kept silent. That's why

1851
02:38:04,290 --> 02:38:05,410
I made up that story.

1852
02:38:05,970 --> 02:38:07,410
It was noble of you, ma'am.

1853
02:38:08,970 --> 02:38:10,310
You saved his reputation.

1854
02:38:12,450 --> 02:38:14,590
Which is the same as saying that you've
saved his life.

1855
02:38:14,850 --> 02:38:15,850
Is he sleeping?

1856
02:38:17,250 --> 02:38:18,550
How can I ever thank you?

1857
02:38:23,770 --> 02:38:26,130
Some people David knows, you're my
friends.

1858
02:38:26,630 --> 02:38:28,610
They're going out to Australia shortly.

1859
02:38:29,350 --> 02:38:30,430
Australia? Australia.

1860
02:38:30,930 --> 02:38:33,950
You could go on the same ship. What do
you think of that idea?

1861
02:38:35,090 --> 02:38:36,190
Capital, ma'am.

1862
02:38:36,450 --> 02:38:38,410
But there's the rub, ma'am. Capital.

1863
02:38:39,020 --> 02:38:40,020
We have none.

1864
02:38:44,140 --> 02:38:48,100
Your husband has done a great service,
Mrs. McCorver.

1865
02:38:49,080 --> 02:38:51,980
If you lack money, I'll furnish it.

1866
02:38:52,960 --> 02:38:58,230
I could not receive it as a gift, ma'am.
Mr. Macorber's pride would not permit

1867
02:38:58,230 --> 02:39:04,690
it. If, however, a sufficient sum could
be advanced, say, at 5% interest per

1868
02:39:04,690 --> 02:39:11,530
annum per my personal liability, say, my
notes of hand at 12, 18, and 24 months,

1869
02:39:11,610 --> 02:39:15,070
respectively, to allow time for
something to turn up.

1870
02:39:17,210 --> 02:39:18,210
Here.

1871
02:39:19,600 --> 02:39:23,280
I have a strong conviction that
Australia will prove to be the

1872
02:39:23,280 --> 02:39:27,680
legitimate sphere of action for me and
mine. In short, that something of an

1873
02:39:27,680 --> 02:39:31,240
extraordinary nature will turn up upon
that wild and distant shore.

1874
02:39:41,220 --> 02:39:45,500
I now approach an event so painful...

1875
02:39:46,250 --> 02:39:50,210
that from the beginning of this
narrative I have seen it loom larger and

1876
02:39:50,210 --> 02:39:56,250
larger as I advanced, like a tall tree
in a plane, throwing its shadow over

1877
02:39:56,250 --> 02:39:57,250
all. Dora!

1878
02:40:03,390 --> 02:40:08,130
It was the servant, Marianne, who had
robbed us and then run off, leaving Dora

1879
02:40:08,130 --> 02:40:10,130
alone in a state of terror and distress.

1880
02:40:12,650 --> 02:40:13,650
Dora!

1881
02:40:14,850 --> 02:40:15,850
Dora!

1882
02:40:34,380 --> 02:40:35,860
I'll come back first thing in the
morning.

1883
02:40:37,000 --> 02:40:39,840
But if there's any change, send round
for me immediately.

1884
02:40:42,780 --> 02:40:43,200
Over

1885
02:40:43,200 --> 02:40:51,320
the

1886
02:40:51,320 --> 02:40:52,780
next few days she grew worse.

1887
02:40:53,180 --> 02:40:56,660
She wanted very much to see Agnes, so I
sent word to Canterbury.

1888
02:41:25,220 --> 02:41:26,220
Daddy.

1889
02:41:30,620 --> 02:41:32,540
I want to say something.

1890
02:41:33,460 --> 02:41:35,480
I've often thought of saying lately.

1891
02:41:35,720 --> 02:41:36,840
You were mine.

1892
02:41:41,240 --> 02:41:46,680
I think I was too young to be your wife.

1893
02:41:49,280 --> 02:41:52,000
Not in years only, but...

1894
02:42:03,400 --> 02:42:04,520
You're a silly little creature.

1895
02:42:05,880 --> 02:42:07,800
Not fit to be a wife.

1896
02:42:08,100 --> 02:42:09,540
As fit as I to be a husband.

1897
02:42:14,100 --> 02:42:15,940
It's much better this way.

1898
02:42:18,520 --> 02:42:25,500
In the end I would have wearied you and
disappointed you. What are you saying?

1899
02:42:29,240 --> 02:42:30,760
I want to see Agnes.

1900
02:42:33,450 --> 02:42:35,070
Will you send her up to me?

1901
02:42:38,290 --> 02:42:40,230
I want to see her quite alone.

1902
02:43:53,000 --> 02:43:59,960
O holy and merciful saviour, thou most
worthy judge eternal, suffer us not at

1903
02:43:59,960 --> 02:44:03,480
our last hour, or any pains of death to
fall from thee.

1904
02:44:05,340 --> 02:44:10,680
Forasmuch as it hath pleased almighty
God to take unto himself the soul of our

1905
02:44:10,680 --> 02:44:15,760
dear sister here departed, we therefore
commit her body to the ground.

1906
02:44:20,760 --> 02:44:22,000
Earth to earth.

1907
02:44:23,020 --> 02:44:26,420
ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

1908
02:44:34,640 --> 02:44:40,940
I fled from the cold grave where my wife
lay, from the aunt to whom I owed my

1909
02:44:40,940 --> 02:44:46,300
very existence, and from the woman who
had all my heart.

1910
02:44:56,200 --> 02:45:00,200
But three years I wandered through
Europe until finally I settled in

1911
02:45:00,200 --> 02:45:01,200
Switzerland.

1912
02:45:02,440 --> 02:45:03,960
I wrote more books.

1913
02:45:05,140 --> 02:45:10,660
My fame and reputation grew, but I had
no thought of ending the exile I had

1914
02:45:10,660 --> 02:45:15,980
chosen until one day the nightmare of my
past rose up again.

1915
02:45:22,860 --> 02:45:25,360
It was Murdston.

1916
02:45:25,680 --> 02:45:29,420
and his sister, sitting with an English
girl and her companion with whom I was

1917
02:45:29,420 --> 02:45:30,420
slightly acquainted.

1918
02:45:34,480 --> 02:45:35,480
Miss Horton.

1919
02:45:36,180 --> 02:45:37,180
Miss Skeggs.

1920
02:45:38,580 --> 02:45:41,280
I beg your pardon for this unceremonious
intrusion.

1921
02:45:41,560 --> 02:45:42,560
Mr. Copperfield.

1922
02:45:42,640 --> 02:45:44,380
Won't you do us the honor of joining us?

1923
02:45:46,320 --> 02:45:47,320
Thank you.

1924
02:45:47,680 --> 02:45:49,240
May I present... Mr.

1925
02:45:49,440 --> 02:45:52,400
Murdston and his sister are already
known to me.

1926
02:45:53,100 --> 02:45:57,670
Mia. Distant acquaintances. We can agree
on that. Can we not, Mr. Copperfield?

1927
02:46:00,290 --> 02:46:01,790
No, ma'am. We cannot.

1928
02:46:03,470 --> 02:46:04,470
Not again.

1929
02:46:05,850 --> 02:46:06,850
Never again.

1930
02:46:08,430 --> 02:46:10,230
Mr. Murdstone is my stepfather.

1931
02:46:12,490 --> 02:46:14,430
He charmed my mother into marriage.

1932
02:46:14,830 --> 02:46:17,630
He wanted her fortune, small though it
was.

1933
02:46:17,850 --> 02:46:18,930
Have a care, sir.

1934
02:46:19,270 --> 02:46:20,850
That is what he is, this fellow.

1935
02:46:21,490 --> 02:46:22,890
A calculating...

1936
02:46:23,150 --> 02:46:28,750
cold-blooded fortune hunter without
honor, scruple, or mercy.

1937
02:46:30,830 --> 02:46:31,890
Be silent!

1938
02:46:32,130 --> 02:46:33,630
I have been silent too long.

1939
02:46:34,010 --> 02:46:35,770
I will be silent no more.

1940
02:46:36,130 --> 02:46:38,470
Edward, Edward, come away. Hold your
tongue.

1941
02:46:38,730 --> 02:46:42,510
He bullied and harried my poor, weak
mother into her grave.

1942
02:46:42,830 --> 02:46:46,650
Yes, she was weak, but it was not I who
preyed upon her weakness.

1943
02:46:46,950 --> 02:46:48,310
It was her own son.

1944
02:46:48,920 --> 02:46:53,040
who drained her of the strength that she
needed with his wild behavior and

1945
02:46:53,040 --> 02:46:54,040
importunate demands.

1946
02:46:54,580 --> 02:47:00,580
You killed her as deliberately and as
pitilessly as if you had thrust a knife

1947
02:47:00,580 --> 02:47:01,640
into her heart.

1948
02:47:04,760 --> 02:47:06,500
Repeat that in England, sir.

1949
02:47:07,780 --> 02:47:11,700
Repeat that in a place where you cannot
evade the laws of slander.

1950
02:47:11,940 --> 02:47:13,160
I'll do better than that.

1951
02:47:14,000 --> 02:47:15,100
I'll write it.

1952
02:47:18,640 --> 02:47:20,000
I have a certain fate.

1953
02:47:21,760 --> 02:47:22,760
I'll use it.

1954
02:47:23,460 --> 02:47:27,140
I'll make sure that you are yet more
widely known than I am.

1955
02:47:28,320 --> 02:47:32,640
Universally known as the black-hearted
thief and murderer that you are.

1956
02:47:43,040 --> 02:47:44,040
Edward.

1957
02:47:45,680 --> 02:47:46,900
Edward, come away.

1958
02:47:56,240 --> 02:48:00,200
Before another hour had passed, I was at
my desk composing this present

1959
02:48:00,200 --> 02:48:05,640
narrative. As I finished each page, no,
each sentence, each word, the black

1960
02:48:05,640 --> 02:48:10,400
night of my boyhood melted away until I
stood at last in the light, a man.

1961
02:48:13,900 --> 02:48:15,460
End it, I could not.

1962
02:48:16,620 --> 02:48:23,380
The ending, whatever it should be, happy
or sad, lay not in Switzerland, but in

1963
02:48:23,380 --> 02:48:24,380
England.

1964
02:48:44,600 --> 02:48:45,760
How is

1965
02:48:45,760 --> 02:48:53,760
Agnes?

1966
02:48:53,940 --> 02:48:55,560
Well, very well.

1967
02:48:56,200 --> 02:49:00,880
And as good and beautiful as ever. If I
knew higher praise, I would bestow it on

1968
02:49:00,880 --> 02:49:04,000
her. Has she any admirers?

1969
02:49:05,860 --> 02:49:06,860
Scores.

1970
02:49:07,220 --> 02:49:10,120
She could have been married 20 times
since you've been gone.

1971
02:49:10,580 --> 02:49:11,980
I wonder why she has not.

1972
02:49:13,440 --> 02:49:15,160
I suspect she has an attachment.

1973
02:49:16,000 --> 02:49:17,000
Do you know the man?

1974
02:49:18,100 --> 02:49:21,940
She's never confided in me, but I think
I know the man.

1975
02:49:30,990 --> 02:49:33,510
Will you go over to Canterbury and see
her?

1976
02:49:35,750 --> 02:49:37,430
Are you sure she would welcome it?

1977
02:49:38,530 --> 02:49:41,310
Mr. Dick, what should he do?

1978
02:49:42,110 --> 02:49:44,450
Hire a horse and ride to Canterbury
tomorrow.

1979
02:49:54,990 --> 02:49:55,990
Agnes.

1980
02:49:57,030 --> 02:49:58,290
Oh, Trotwood, is it you?

1981
02:50:00,840 --> 02:50:01,840
It is.

1982
02:50:02,440 --> 02:50:03,680
How well you look. And you.

1983
02:50:04,540 --> 02:50:08,860
Did you... Agnes.

1984
02:50:10,560 --> 02:50:11,800
I went away.

1985
02:50:13,040 --> 02:50:14,440
I know why you went away.

1986
02:50:15,540 --> 02:50:16,540
Do you?

1987
02:50:19,440 --> 02:50:20,440
Yes.

1988
02:50:20,840 --> 02:50:22,840
I believe you know everything about me.

1989
02:50:23,940 --> 02:50:25,220
Not everything, perhaps.

1990
02:50:28,880 --> 02:50:29,880
I went away.

1991
02:50:32,400 --> 02:50:33,520
I went away loving you.

1992
02:50:34,860 --> 02:50:36,440
I stayed away loving you.

1993
02:50:37,880 --> 02:50:40,700
And now I return, loving you.

1994
02:50:42,980 --> 02:50:43,980
Did you know that?

1995
02:50:46,280 --> 02:50:47,280
Yes.

1996
02:50:49,600 --> 02:50:52,280
I have kept my secret better than you
have kept yours.

1997
02:50:53,100 --> 02:50:54,100
Your secret?

1998
02:50:57,100 --> 02:50:59,080
I have loved you all my life.

1999
02:51:12,280 --> 02:51:13,280
Dearest.

2000
02:51:14,040 --> 02:51:15,040
Dearest Trot.

2001
02:51:16,820 --> 02:51:18,740
There is one more thing I have to tell
you.

2002
02:51:21,760 --> 02:51:23,860
The day she died, Dora sent you for me.

2003
02:51:25,480 --> 02:51:26,680
I was with her at the end.

2004
02:51:29,600 --> 02:51:31,660
She made a last request to me.

2005
02:51:34,460 --> 02:51:37,080
That one day I would take her place by
your side.

2006
02:51:47,980 --> 02:51:48,980
Will you?

2007
02:51:52,800 --> 02:51:53,800
I will.

2008
02:52:23,600 --> 02:52:25,600
Here, I close this narrative.

2009
02:52:26,200 --> 02:52:28,140
Here, with Agnes at my side.

2010
02:52:29,500 --> 02:52:30,500
Agnes.

2011
02:52:31,280 --> 02:52:34,700
Agnes, Agnes, may you so be near me when
I close my life.

2012
02:52:35,460 --> 02:52:38,880
When realities are melting from me like
the shadows of this story.

2013
02:52:40,000 --> 02:52:42,320
May I find you near me still.
