1
00:00:03,437 --> 00:00:05,767
Now, don't get in the way.
2
00:01:13,610 --> 00:01:16,873
And what would I be doing
with something so grand as that?
3
00:01:17,044 --> 00:01:20,205
Please, Bessy. I wore these as a child.
4
00:01:20,378 --> 00:01:24,277
They're not fit for darning.
5
00:01:25,312 --> 00:01:28,642
All right, then. I'll keep just this one.
6
00:01:28,813 --> 00:01:30,870
Only to look at, mind.
7
00:01:31,046 --> 00:01:33,376
Where's Nicholas?
8
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,040
Oh, he's been brought so low
by the way the strike's gone.
9
00:01:40,214 --> 00:01:42,703
He were a committee man, you know?
10
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,403
He thought they stood a good chance this time.
11
00:01:45,581 --> 00:01:48,570
Has everyone gone back to work?
12
00:01:48,748 --> 00:01:51,271
They lost their spirit after the violence.
13
00:01:51,981 --> 00:01:55,812
Fools. What were they thinking of,
throwing stones at a woman?
14
00:01:55,982 --> 00:01:58,141
I'm sure it wasn't so very bad.
15
00:01:58,316 --> 00:02:01,043
- Whatever was done...
- Was enough.
16
00:02:04,583 --> 00:02:08,141
Father, he's that angry with the men
that broke the strike, he...
17
00:02:09,917 --> 00:02:12,782
You see, I wish I knew where he was.
18
00:02:14,151 --> 00:02:18,481
I've never seen him like this, Margaret.
19
00:02:19,552 --> 00:02:22,041
I'm worried about what he might do.
20
00:03:04,523 --> 00:03:08,114
Well, at least we've got the machines
going again.
21
00:03:11,590 --> 00:03:14,988
- And the Irish?
- They're settled.
22
00:03:15,157 --> 00:03:19,988
They've had a good meal. I sent for
Father Patrick. He seemed to calm them down.
23
00:03:21,025 --> 00:03:25,481
I'll have to send them home.
I've got workers clamoring to come back.
24
00:03:25,659 --> 00:03:28,784
Serve them right if we kept the Irish workers.
25
00:03:33,860 --> 00:03:35,951
By the way,
26
00:03:36,126 --> 00:03:38,184
I was right, Mother.
27
00:03:39,860 --> 00:03:42,520
Miss Hale will not have me.
28
00:03:45,527 --> 00:03:48,426
No one loves me.
29
00:03:48,627 --> 00:03:51,185
No one cares for me but you.
30
00:03:54,829 --> 00:03:58,489
A mother's love holds fast and forever.
31
00:04:00,262 --> 00:04:06,593
A girl's love is like a puff of smoke.
It changes with every wind.
32
00:04:06,763 --> 00:04:10,389
I knew I was not good enough for her.
33
00:04:11,597 --> 00:04:15,427
- Yet I think of her more than ever.
- I hate her.
34
00:04:16,964 --> 00:04:20,397
I tried not to, when I thought
she would make you happy.
35
00:04:21,965 --> 00:04:24,863
I'd give my life's blood for that.
36
00:04:26,566 --> 00:04:29,054
Who is she, that she dares to reject you?
37
00:04:29,232 --> 00:04:30,596
No.
38
00:04:30,799 --> 00:04:34,129
It's no good, John. Your sorrow is mine.
39
00:04:34,300 --> 00:04:38,756
- And if you won't hate her, then I must.
- She does not care for me. That is enough.
40
00:04:38,934 --> 00:04:42,889
The only thing you can do for me
is never say her name again.
41
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:48,958
- We will never talk of her again.
- With all my heart.
42
00:04:50,301 --> 00:04:56,235
I only wish that she and all her family could be
swept back to the place they came from.
43
00:04:57,902 --> 00:05:00,333
How kind of Mr. Thornton.
44
00:05:00,502 --> 00:05:04,958
The most splendid fruit I've seen.
Best in the county, I shouldn't wonder.
45
00:05:05,136 --> 00:05:08,864
And a card, written in his own hand.
46
00:05:09,037 --> 00:05:12,299
He has always been most civil and thoughtful.
47
00:05:12,471 --> 00:05:15,198
But I wouldn't have thought
he'd have had the time.
48
00:05:15,404 --> 00:05:17,927
He's had so much trouble with the rioting...
49
00:05:20,938 --> 00:05:23,927
It shows his high regard for you, my dear.
50
00:05:24,905 --> 00:05:27,894
Margaret, you must visit Marlborough Mills
51
00:05:28,072 --> 00:05:30,970
and ask after Mrs. Thornton
52
00:05:31,139 --> 00:05:35,196
and thank Mr. Thornton
for this most gracious gift.
53
00:05:35,372 --> 00:05:38,066
I am sure a note will do as well, Mama.
54
00:05:40,973 --> 00:05:43,940
I saw Thornton in the street today.
55
00:05:44,107 --> 00:05:47,268
He didn't seem quite so in control as usual.
56
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,533
- Really?
- He seemed very distracted this morning.
57
00:05:51,708 --> 00:05:55,538
I thought he might have been visiting.
He was just nearby.
58
00:05:55,708 --> 00:05:58,868
- Margaret?
- Excuse me.
59
00:06:13,343 --> 00:06:17,276
Has it occurred to you there may be
something between him and your daughter?
60
00:06:17,444 --> 00:06:20,137
Good Lord, no. Certainly not.
61
00:06:21,177 --> 00:06:24,666
Well... I suppose it's possible on his side.
62
00:06:24,878 --> 00:06:29,140
For Margaret, it's out of the question.
She's never liked him, poor fellow.
63
00:06:29,312 --> 00:06:32,608
Oh, I pray he doesn't get his hopes up.
64
00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:44,712
Hide you? You've got a nerve.
65
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,938
- You wouldn't give us up.
- Wouldn't I?
66
00:06:49,014 --> 00:06:52,242
- You've ruined the strike!
- There's no use in fighting.
67
00:06:52,415 --> 00:06:55,245
What were you thinking?
Half-killing a woman?
68
00:06:55,415 --> 00:06:57,677
- A woman!
- Thornton hid behind her...
69
00:06:57,849 --> 00:07:00,576
No going against the law! That's the iron rule!
70
00:07:01,949 --> 00:07:06,507
We were in the right. We could've
taken everyone with us, but you...
71
00:07:06,683 --> 00:07:10,945
you had to act like the senseless
crazed animals they think we are.
72
00:07:11,117 --> 00:07:13,447
You want me to hide you from the police?
73
00:07:13,617 --> 00:07:16,105
They'll think I'm one of the ringleaders.
74
00:07:16,283 --> 00:07:19,444
I'm a committee man, a union man.
People trust me!
75
00:07:19,617 --> 00:07:22,981
Strike weren't working.
When were it going to end, eh?
76
00:07:23,151 --> 00:07:27,607
- Your wife and children ain't starving...
- And neither would yours!
77
00:07:27,785 --> 00:07:31,218
I gave you my word, and I keep my word!
78
00:07:31,385 --> 00:07:34,374
God, you disgust me.
79
00:07:34,552 --> 00:07:36,541
You're pathetic.
80
00:07:36,719 --> 00:07:40,709
You could have been born with a king's fortune,
you'd still have failed them.
81
00:07:40,886 --> 00:07:43,978
You're in this world to bring us down -
your family, the union...
82
00:07:44,153 --> 00:07:46,984
Shut your gob!
83
00:07:47,154 --> 00:07:50,609
I'm telling the police where you are.
84
00:07:50,788 --> 00:07:53,276
I'm telling them where you are!
85
00:07:53,454 --> 00:07:57,547
- I'll give you up, John Boucher!
- Stop!
86
00:07:57,721 --> 00:08:00,711
Please.
87
00:08:16,157 --> 00:08:18,555
Thornton!
88
00:08:18,724 --> 00:08:21,781
Thornton. Congratulations.
89
00:08:21,958 --> 00:08:24,516
On handling the strike.
Everything back to normal?
90
00:08:24,691 --> 00:08:27,419
Business is more complicated. It'll take a while.
91
00:08:27,592 --> 00:08:31,456
- Ah! You know the Latimers, of course.
- Of course.
92
00:08:31,625 --> 00:08:34,353
Ah! Margaret! Over here.
93
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:42,049
Well, look at this. What luck!
Two of the prettiest girls in Milton.
94
00:08:42,227 --> 00:08:44,557
You remember the Latimers, Margaret?
95
00:08:44,727 --> 00:08:48,784
My banker, and therefore a very important man,
and this is Ann,
96
00:08:48,961 --> 00:08:53,189
recently arrived home from Switzerland,
I believe. And very much finished.
97
00:08:53,361 --> 00:08:56,020
Well, where are you off to, my dear?
98
00:08:56,194 --> 00:08:58,683
- Nowhere.
- You can have your secrets.
99
00:08:58,862 --> 00:09:02,693
Young women must have secrets.
Isn't that one of the joys of life?
100
00:09:02,862 --> 00:09:05,693
I wouldn't know. Good day.
101
00:09:08,662 --> 00:09:12,060
What's the point of spending
a fortune on education
102
00:09:12,230 --> 00:09:16,560
if you have to spend another
on a wedding once they're back?
103
00:09:16,730 --> 00:09:19,322
Good day, Miss Hale. Bell.
104
00:09:20,331 --> 00:09:23,820
- I'm sorry, my dear.
- Mr. Bell.
105
00:09:23,998 --> 00:09:28,158
I'm grateful for the friendship you give
my father. He has felt alone here...
106
00:09:28,332 --> 00:09:32,731
But you wish I would mind my own business
and stop being so damn facetious?
107
00:09:33,732 --> 00:09:37,755
You're absolutely right, my dear,
and it will stop immediately.
108
00:09:37,932 --> 00:09:40,125
But I do take an interest.
109
00:09:40,299 --> 00:09:44,629
I would like to think if you needed help,
I would be the first you'd call upon.
110
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,789
You have my word, Mr. Bell. You'll be the first.
111
00:09:57,801 --> 00:10:00,563
Father. You're back early.
112
00:10:00,735 --> 00:10:04,099
Yes, er... one of my pupils
cancelled our appointment
113
00:10:04,269 --> 00:10:07,928
and I came back
looking forward to Mr. Thornton's lesson,
114
00:10:08,102 --> 00:10:11,933
only to discover that he also fears
he might find himself
115
00:10:12,103 --> 00:10:14,534
too busy to read this evening.
116
00:10:15,703 --> 00:10:17,863
It has been a busy few days.
117
00:10:18,036 --> 00:10:21,867
No doubt Mr. Thornton will resume his lessons
when things quieten down.
118
00:10:22,037 --> 00:10:24,367
No doubt. No doubt.
119
00:10:25,605 --> 00:10:31,300
Maybe I'll write him a little note
of encouragement, hoping he can come later.
120
00:10:33,671 --> 00:10:35,729
Margaret?
121
00:10:37,339 --> 00:10:40,635
- Are you expecting a letter?
- No.
122
00:10:42,039 --> 00:10:44,130
Yes.
123
00:10:45,340 --> 00:10:50,500
Father, I've got something I have to tell you.
I've written to Frederick.
124
00:10:50,673 --> 00:10:53,105
I know that I shouldn't have.
125
00:10:54,141 --> 00:10:59,404
Because of your mother.
And... you think he needs to come quickly?
126
00:11:02,609 --> 00:11:05,666
Please say I did the right thing, Father.
127
00:11:05,842 --> 00:11:10,002
- Is the danger to Frederick so very great?
- Oh, yes, my dear.
128
00:11:10,176 --> 00:11:12,005
I'm afraid it is.
129
00:11:13,042 --> 00:11:15,201
The government must take harsh measures
130
00:11:15,376 --> 00:11:20,207
against those who set themselves up
in opposition to its authority, especially at sea,
131
00:11:20,377 --> 00:11:25,072
where the captain must expect
extra support so far from home.
132
00:11:26,577 --> 00:11:30,271
There is still a large reward out on Frederick.
133
00:11:32,111 --> 00:11:36,374
Maybe we could get the letter back.
When... when did you post it?
134
00:11:36,545 --> 00:11:41,740
Several days ago. But surely
everything happened so long ago.
135
00:11:43,147 --> 00:11:45,476
The Navy spares no expense.
136
00:11:45,646 --> 00:11:50,545
They send out ships
specifically to hunt the seas for the guilty men.
137
00:11:50,714 --> 00:11:53,646
It's as fresh and vivid a crime
as if it happened yesterday.
138
00:11:53,814 --> 00:11:57,008
And nothing but blood...
139
00:11:57,181 --> 00:11:59,374
will wipe it clean.
140
00:11:59,548 --> 00:12:01,605
But Fred's innocent.
141
00:12:01,782 --> 00:12:04,907
- Surely there is justice. We must trust...
- No.
142
00:12:06,048 --> 00:12:08,571
If only I hadn't written.
143
00:12:09,716 --> 00:12:14,705
Supposing I have only encouraged Frederick
to come back to a court martial?
144
00:12:16,116 --> 00:12:19,571
- That would kill Mother for sure.
- No, you did well.
145
00:12:19,750 --> 00:12:24,080
You acted from the heart.
You were brave for your mother's sake.
146
00:12:25,217 --> 00:12:28,048
I'm glad you didn't tell me,
147
00:12:28,217 --> 00:12:30,877
for I might have stopped you.
148
00:12:32,385 --> 00:12:34,749
Dear Edith,
149
00:12:34,918 --> 00:12:37,749
I hardly know how to begin.
150
00:12:39,186 --> 00:12:42,913
There are things I so want to talk to you about...
151
00:12:44,386 --> 00:12:47,352
...but I can't find the words.
152
00:13:05,989 --> 00:13:08,046
I came for a chat with Be...
153
00:13:09,256 --> 00:13:11,313
Oh, miss.
154
00:14:25,664 --> 00:14:27,926
Were you with her?
155
00:14:28,764 --> 00:14:31,230
I'm sure it was peaceful.
156
00:14:32,265 --> 00:14:36,595
Look at her face, Nicholas.
There's no more pain.
157
00:14:36,765 --> 00:14:38,663
She's...
158
00:14:39,698 --> 00:14:43,187
she's not supposed to go before me.
159
00:14:43,366 --> 00:14:46,992
It doesn't make sense.
It's just not the natural way of things.
160
00:14:49,033 --> 00:14:54,022
- You sure it's not a faint? It's happened before.
- No, Nicholas. She's dead.
161
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,325
Oh...
162
00:15:08,601 --> 00:15:10,693
Oh...
163
00:15:21,870 --> 00:15:25,030
...how long it's going to take us
to get back on our feet?
164
00:15:46,739 --> 00:15:49,501
My poor Bess.
165
00:15:49,673 --> 00:15:52,105
She lived the life of a dog.
166
00:15:52,274 --> 00:15:57,002
Hard work and illness.
She never had one moment of rejoicing.
167
00:15:57,174 --> 00:16:00,107
She... she may not have had an easy life,
168
00:16:00,274 --> 00:16:02,763
but she will find comfort in the next.
169
00:16:05,441 --> 00:16:08,430
I'm not saying I don't believe in your God,
170
00:16:08,608 --> 00:16:11,836
but I can't believe
He meant the world to be as it is.
171
00:16:12,009 --> 00:16:14,532
The masters ruling over us,
172
00:16:14,709 --> 00:16:18,039
the rest of us left to live a half-life
in the shadows.
173
00:16:18,209 --> 00:16:20,869
He gave us the world
174
00:16:21,043 --> 00:16:25,373
and our wits and intelligence
to discover the grace and beauty in others...
175
00:16:25,544 --> 00:16:30,977
And I'm to believe that He gave some
more than others, and that was His will?
176
00:16:31,144 --> 00:16:37,566
It's our duty to make peace with others.
It's a pity that you seem to think in terms of...
177
00:16:37,745 --> 00:16:40,473
war and strife.
178
00:16:40,645 --> 00:16:43,043
I know there's suffering,
179
00:16:43,245 --> 00:16:45,677
and I know there are cruel and greedy masters,
180
00:16:45,846 --> 00:16:51,507
but surely it would be better
for people of goodwill on both sides
181
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,669
to sit down and share ideas
182
00:16:54,847 --> 00:16:58,643
of how to do God's will,
to live together in peace and harmony.
183
00:16:59,548 --> 00:17:01,878
Wouldn't you think a man like...
184
00:17:02,047 --> 00:17:04,275
like Thornton would be open to ideas?
185
00:17:05,414 --> 00:17:07,404
Thornton?
186
00:17:07,581 --> 00:17:11,309
He brought in the Irish,
that led to the riot and broke the strike.
187
00:17:11,482 --> 00:17:15,676
Even Hamper would have waited,
but Thornton's got no deceit about him.
188
00:17:15,849 --> 00:17:17,940
Just when we needed him to be hard,
189
00:17:18,116 --> 00:17:21,173
to hunt down men like Boucher
and men who betrayed us,
190
00:17:21,349 --> 00:17:25,009
what does he do? He says he's the injured
party. He won't press charges.
191
00:17:25,184 --> 00:17:30,082
They'll not get employment.
That's punishment enough, he says.
192
00:17:31,751 --> 00:17:34,945
- I thought he'd have more guts.
- Mr. Thornton was right.
193
00:17:35,118 --> 00:17:38,482
I know that you're angry with Boucher,
194
00:17:38,652 --> 00:17:42,141
but even you must see
that anything more would look like revenge.
195
00:17:51,619 --> 00:17:53,608
My poor Bess.
196
00:17:55,020 --> 00:18:00,510
She said the strike'd be the end of her.
And it's all because of weak men like Boucher.
197
00:18:01,954 --> 00:18:04,443
Not everyone is as strong as you, Nicholas.
198
00:18:05,288 --> 00:18:07,516
To last out the strike for so long.
199
00:18:07,688 --> 00:18:12,485
People of the same trade must stick together.
If they don't... men have ways and means.
200
00:18:12,655 --> 00:18:15,417
- Ways and means?
- Aye.
201
00:18:15,622 --> 00:18:19,884
We can cast a man out.
No one'll look at him or talk to him...
202
00:18:20,056 --> 00:18:23,852
You talk of the tyranny of the masters, Nicholas.
203
00:18:24,857 --> 00:18:27,345
Now, don't worry, Mr. Hale.
204
00:18:27,957 --> 00:18:31,946
I haven't forgotten who's lying dead
and how much she loved your girl.
205
00:18:32,124 --> 00:18:35,386
I'll just say this. Being in the union...
206
00:18:35,724 --> 00:18:38,054
it IS like being in a war.
207
00:18:38,225 --> 00:18:40,918
And with a war comes some crime.
208
00:18:42,525 --> 00:18:46,151
But it would be a greater crime to do nothing.
209
00:18:58,860 --> 00:19:01,383
Look after yourself.
210
00:19:28,797 --> 00:19:32,354
Doesn't the mistress look well today,
Miss Margaret?
211
00:19:32,530 --> 00:19:36,520
She's done a good two inches of needlework
and she's read her post.
212
00:19:36,698 --> 00:19:41,357
More letters from your Aunt Shaw,
inviting us to the Great Exhibition.
213
00:19:41,531 --> 00:19:44,054
Oh, I do so wish I could go.
214
00:19:44,232 --> 00:19:46,721
Don't worry, I know that I shouldn't.
215
00:19:46,898 --> 00:19:50,888
But you could go, Margaret.
It sounds so exciting.
216
00:19:51,066 --> 00:19:53,328
With bears and elephants
217
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:57,330
and exotic people and inventions
from all over the Empire.
218
00:19:57,500 --> 00:19:59,830
I can't go to London.
219
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,330
Not when you're...
220
00:20:02,501 --> 00:20:05,023
Not until I know you're feeling better.
221
00:20:05,968 --> 00:20:07,524
Yes, but...
222
00:20:07,701 --> 00:20:10,963
if you went, you could tell me all about it
223
00:20:11,135 --> 00:20:13,533
and maybe bring me something back.
224
00:20:13,702 --> 00:20:17,634
- It would give me something to look forward to.
- I'll think about it.
225
00:20:25,770 --> 00:20:28,100
You've written to Frederick, haven't you?
226
00:20:39,838 --> 00:20:42,100
Now I think about it...
227
00:20:43,138 --> 00:20:45,798
I'm afraid of him coming...
228
00:20:46,805 --> 00:20:49,704
in case he should be taken.
229
00:20:49,872 --> 00:20:51,997
After all of these years
230
00:20:52,172 --> 00:20:55,502
that he's kept away and lived safely.
231
00:20:55,673 --> 00:20:59,197
There is a risk, but we will be careful.
232
00:20:59,373 --> 00:21:02,999
If we were still at Helstone,
people would know who he was.
233
00:21:03,174 --> 00:21:04,969
People would remember.
234
00:21:05,141 --> 00:21:09,164
While here nobody knows or cares for us
to notice what we do.
235
00:21:09,341 --> 00:21:14,706
I suppose there's some virtue
in being uprooted and friendless.
236
00:21:14,875 --> 00:21:18,899
I'm glad that Miss Margaret wrote.
I was thinking of doing so myself.
237
00:21:19,075 --> 00:21:23,770
- And Dixon will keep the door like a dragon.
- They'll have to be clever to get past me.
238
00:21:47,579 --> 00:21:52,535
I suppose it's only right that we've invited
people from all over the Empire,
239
00:21:52,712 --> 00:21:57,043
even if some of the exhibits are a little exotic.
240
00:21:57,213 --> 00:22:01,146
I think it's wonderful. It seems as though
all the world is here for us to see.
241
00:22:01,314 --> 00:22:03,746
I was impressed by the machinery.
242
00:22:03,913 --> 00:22:09,074
I have to say, I never realized the power of it -
and the money to be made from cotton.
243
00:22:11,014 --> 00:22:13,310
Maybe WE should go into cotton.
244
00:22:13,481 --> 00:22:17,311
I should think it takes a deal more energy
than you have, Maxwell.
245
00:22:18,849 --> 00:22:21,940
We don't need heavy machinery
to make money in London.
246
00:22:22,115 --> 00:22:26,139
Nor do we need to suffer the northern climate.
Do we, Miss Hale?
247
00:22:27,649 --> 00:22:29,945
I ask the expert amongst us.
248
00:22:30,983 --> 00:22:34,916
It's true.
The air is not so clean in Milton.
249
00:22:38,351 --> 00:22:42,374
Margaret has always had
a mind of her own, Henry.
250
00:22:45,219 --> 00:22:48,310
You're all here
to see this fine machinery.
251
00:22:48,519 --> 00:22:51,610
Technologically, we're the envy of the world.
252
00:22:51,786 --> 00:22:55,809
If only there was a mechanism
to enable us all to live together,
253
00:22:56,019 --> 00:22:59,042
to take advantage of the great benefits
from industry.
254
00:22:59,220 --> 00:23:01,812
But that will be for future generations.
255
00:23:03,287 --> 00:23:06,741
We can bring back marmosets
from Mozambique,
256
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,978
but we cannot stop man
from behaving as he always has.
257
00:23:10,154 --> 00:23:14,644
- Don't you think we can put an end to strikes?
- Not in my lifetime.
258
00:23:14,821 --> 00:23:19,811
But with time and patience,
we might try to bleed them of their bitterness.
259
00:23:21,789 --> 00:23:25,483
Miss Hale here knows the depths
we men in Milton have fallen to.
260
00:23:25,656 --> 00:23:29,111
How we masters only strive
to grind workers into the ground
261
00:23:29,289 --> 00:23:31,881
I certainly do not think that...
262
00:23:32,057 --> 00:23:36,046
as Mr. Thornton could tell you,
if he would know me at all.
263
00:23:36,224 --> 00:23:39,713
I've presumed to know you once before
and have been mistaken.
264
00:23:39,891 --> 00:23:42,721
Miss Hale! How delightful.
265
00:23:43,891 --> 00:23:48,586
- You've come to London at last.
- Mother allowed it because John was coming,
266
00:23:48,792 --> 00:23:52,555
and Miss Latimer, of course,
who she approves of greatly.
267
00:23:52,725 --> 00:23:56,214
Seems to think
he's far more sensible than me.
268
00:23:56,392 --> 00:24:00,223
Henry. Do you know Mr. Thornton?
269
00:24:02,393 --> 00:24:05,484
Mr. Thornton. All the way from Milton.
270
00:24:07,228 --> 00:24:10,126
My brother is interested in dabbling in cotton.
271
00:24:11,127 --> 00:24:15,617
I'm not sure I'm the one to speak to.
I'm not sure I'd know how to dabble.
272
00:24:17,162 --> 00:24:22,356
I must go. You may enjoy the machinery
like an exhibit in the zoo.
273
00:24:22,529 --> 00:24:25,393
I have to go and live with it.
I must get back to Milton.
274
00:24:25,562 --> 00:24:27,790
Give our regards to the Hales.
275
00:24:27,963 --> 00:24:32,953
You must tell them how the London break
is suiting Miss Hale.
276
00:24:33,163 --> 00:24:35,789
Don't you think, Thornton?
277
00:24:35,964 --> 00:24:38,453
Doesn't Miss Hale look well?
278
00:24:41,097 --> 00:24:43,087
Good day.
279
00:24:43,264 --> 00:24:46,856
Tell Mother I'll be home soon,
with so much to tell her.
280
00:24:47,031 --> 00:24:49,997
Ooh! John is such a stick-in-the-mud.
281
00:24:54,432 --> 00:24:57,297
Who was that? Is it anyone we should know?
282
00:24:57,466 --> 00:25:03,456
Poor Thornton. I tempted him down here
to try to raise finance for Marlborough Mills.
283
00:25:03,633 --> 00:25:06,293
And he's had to face all kinds of inquiries.
284
00:25:06,467 --> 00:25:11,297
Starry-eyed Londoners who think they only
have to snap their fingers to make a fortune.
285
00:25:11,467 --> 00:25:15,127
I'd hardly have thought a manufacturer
would appreciate a show like this.
286
00:25:15,301 --> 00:25:19,631
No, you're wrong.
I've heard him talk often with my father.
287
00:25:19,802 --> 00:25:25,292
He's very interested in the world.
Really. I know him to be.
288
00:25:35,670 --> 00:25:39,068
The misses is sorry for keeping
you waiting, Mrs. Thornton.
289
00:25:39,238 --> 00:25:41,726
Would you please come up?
290
00:26:11,307 --> 00:26:13,466
My daughter Margaret...
291
00:26:17,408 --> 00:26:19,703
I will be dead soon.
292
00:26:23,609 --> 00:26:26,337
I want you to look after her.
293
00:26:27,009 --> 00:26:28,907
My own sister...
294
00:26:29,942 --> 00:26:32,670
she travels, often.
295
00:26:34,443 --> 00:26:36,875
Margaret has no woman's guidance.
296
00:26:37,977 --> 00:26:41,034
I'm sure your daughter makes her own choices.
297
00:26:41,210 --> 00:26:43,699
I cannot make her change her mind.
298
00:26:43,878 --> 00:26:46,106
She has already made her decisions.
299
00:26:46,278 --> 00:26:50,040
I'm surprised she's not here, as you're not well.
300
00:26:50,211 --> 00:26:53,007
I made her go.
301
00:26:53,179 --> 00:26:57,168
I... I was feeling a great deal better, but...
302
00:27:00,713 --> 00:27:04,476
I wish you to be a friend to Margaret.
303
00:27:06,046 --> 00:27:11,877
I'm afraid it is not in my nature
to show affection... even when I feel it.
304
00:27:15,715 --> 00:27:20,443
But I promise that if Miss Hale
should ask me for help,
305
00:27:20,615 --> 00:27:25,207
or... or should I ever hear of her doing
something that I see as wrong...
306
00:27:25,382 --> 00:27:27,871
But Margaret never does anything wrong.
307
00:27:29,415 --> 00:27:32,280
...I will counsel her as I would my own daughter.
308
00:27:33,717 --> 00:27:36,080
I promise.
309
00:27:37,117 --> 00:27:40,379
I pray to God to bless you for your promise
310
00:27:41,717 --> 00:27:44,047
to be kind...
311
00:27:45,384 --> 00:27:47,714
to my child.
312
00:28:13,420 --> 00:28:15,613
I should never have gone, Dixon.
313
00:28:15,821 --> 00:28:18,946
She wanted you to go.
314
00:28:19,121 --> 00:28:23,577
She was happy for you.
This last turn happened very suddenly.
315
00:28:25,055 --> 00:28:29,647
Who'd come visiting at this hour?
316
00:28:29,823 --> 00:28:32,812
- I'll get the master.
- No, I'll go.
317
00:28:33,023 --> 00:28:35,511
Don't disturb him.
318
00:28:51,424 --> 00:28:53,754
Is Mr. Hale in?
319
00:28:53,925 --> 00:28:57,119
Frederick. Fred...
320
00:28:57,292 --> 00:28:59,451
Frederick.
321
00:28:59,626 --> 00:29:01,353
Oh...
322
00:29:05,727 --> 00:29:07,886
- Mother?
- She's still alive.
323
00:29:08,059 --> 00:29:11,151
- As ill as she could be, but she lives.
- Thank God.
324
00:29:11,327 --> 00:29:14,191
- Father...
- You did expect me, didn't you?
325
00:29:14,361 --> 00:29:18,350
- I knew you'd come, but we have had no letter.
- I... I traveled before it.
326
00:29:18,527 --> 00:29:20,891
- But you knew I'd come.
- Of course.
327
00:29:21,061 --> 00:29:23,391
I didn't dare think it would be so soon.
328
00:29:25,161 --> 00:29:28,060
Margaret? Did I hear the door?
329
00:29:38,264 --> 00:29:40,321
My boy.
330
00:29:41,697 --> 00:29:43,992
You've come home.
331
00:29:53,698 --> 00:29:56,028
- Miss Hale?
- Mr. Thornton.
332
00:29:56,932 --> 00:30:01,990
I have only come to return your father's book
and bring fruit for your mother.
333
00:30:02,165 --> 00:30:04,654
Thank you.
334
00:30:04,833 --> 00:30:09,027
Oh, thank you, Mary.
Please take these through to the kitchen.
335
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:15,329
You must excuse me. I thought that I would
still be welcome here, despite our...
336
00:30:15,500 --> 00:30:19,331
despite what has passed between us.
As your father's guest, at least.
337
00:30:19,501 --> 00:30:22,695
Indeed. Y... you are welcome, but...
338
00:30:25,935 --> 00:30:29,925
- I'm sorry. You have company already.
- No. Indeed, we do not.
339
00:30:30,102 --> 00:30:32,261
There is no one here.
340
00:30:36,136 --> 00:30:38,898
- Good day, Miss Hale.
- Mr. Thornton, please.
341
00:30:39,069 --> 00:30:41,900
My mother is ill. Things are not as they seem.
342
00:30:42,070 --> 00:30:47,059
Please believe me that I mean no discourtesy
and that you are most welcome.
343
00:30:56,605 --> 00:30:59,264
Who was that?
The tradesman that came earlier?
344
00:31:00,872 --> 00:31:03,997
Mr. Thornton. He's a manufacturer.
345
00:31:04,172 --> 00:31:07,003
Tradesman, manufacturer, it's all the same.
346
00:31:07,172 --> 00:31:11,333
What did Father mean by placing you
in the company of these people?
347
00:31:11,506 --> 00:31:13,904
Mr. Thornton is...
348
00:31:14,073 --> 00:31:17,437
He's a gentleman, Fred,
and has been very good to us.
349
00:31:18,774 --> 00:31:21,297
I'm sorry.
350
00:31:21,475 --> 00:31:23,940
Who am I to criticize?
351
00:31:24,909 --> 00:31:27,397
I've neglected you and Mother all these years.
352
00:31:27,575 --> 00:31:31,701
It pains me not to be able to thank
those who have been kind to you,
353
00:31:31,875 --> 00:31:34,899
that your life and mine must always be separate
354
00:31:35,676 --> 00:31:38,540
unless I run the risk of court martial.
355
00:31:41,176 --> 00:31:43,836
Or if you should come to Spain.
356
00:31:44,577 --> 00:31:49,033
You know, I have a good position there.
And, er...
357
00:31:51,811 --> 00:31:53,800
And?
358
00:31:53,978 --> 00:31:56,876
The girl I wrote to you about? Dolores?
359
00:31:57,711 --> 00:32:02,371
I only wish you knew her. You would love her.
You and Father and Mother.
360
00:32:02,545 --> 00:32:07,444
Tell me about her. We could do with
talking of lovely, joyful things.
361
00:32:17,514 --> 00:32:19,503
Fred...
362
00:32:47,817 --> 00:32:50,305
She's not gone?
363
00:32:52,584 --> 00:32:56,415
- Oh...
- Margaret...
364
00:33:41,089 --> 00:33:46,488
And then I'm to go to Croxley...
to read with the Smithers boy.
365
00:33:46,690 --> 00:33:49,815
He's a diligent lad. Hard-working.
366
00:33:49,990 --> 00:33:53,479
But slow. I... I don't think
he'll make much of a scholar.
367
00:33:54,791 --> 00:33:58,485
But his parents hope that with enough help,
368
00:33:58,692 --> 00:34:01,123
he can get a decent education.
369
00:34:08,593 --> 00:34:10,923
Miss Dixon?
370
00:34:11,092 --> 00:34:14,059
Well, fancy seeing you here!
371
00:34:15,860 --> 00:34:18,224
Maybe you're not a Miss Dixon no longer.
372
00:34:18,394 --> 00:34:20,826
I'm still Miss Dixon to you, young Leonards.
373
00:34:20,994 --> 00:34:24,324
Though I've had my chances, I'm sure.
374
00:34:24,495 --> 00:34:30,450
And you. Still up to your old nonsense? What
are you doing all the way up here in Milton?
375
00:34:30,628 --> 00:34:34,356
Well, Helstone's not exactly
an up-and-coming place, is it?
376
00:34:34,529 --> 00:34:36,586
Besides, this is where all the money is.
377
00:34:36,763 --> 00:34:39,524
I got myself a fine fianc�e now, an' all.
378
00:34:39,729 --> 00:34:42,127
- She works for one of those big houses.
- Hm.
379
00:34:43,063 --> 00:34:47,086
Anyway, what are you doing
all the way up here, Miss Dixon?
380
00:34:48,397 --> 00:34:51,262
You still working for those Hales?
381
00:34:51,431 --> 00:34:55,090
Wasn't there some sort of, um...
some scandal involving that boy?
382
00:34:55,264 --> 00:34:57,958
I'm visiting my sister's family.
383
00:35:04,632 --> 00:35:06,825
Cheerio, then.
384
00:35:07,599 --> 00:35:10,327
I'm sure I'll see you again soon, eh?
385
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:18,033
Oh, Dixon.
Do you think he knows about Frederick?
386
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,462
The mutiny was a very big story.
It was in all the newspapers.
387
00:35:23,301 --> 00:35:25,733
And there is still a big reward.
388
00:35:25,901 --> 00:35:29,765
We certainly don't want him
poking his nose in around here.
389
00:35:32,135 --> 00:35:34,192
Frederick must go.
390
00:35:34,402 --> 00:35:38,801
Before the funeral. Have you talked
to my father about arrangements?
391
00:35:38,969 --> 00:35:41,765
He said Mr. Bell will arrange everything.
392
00:35:41,937 --> 00:35:44,096
Mr. Bell.
393
00:35:44,269 --> 00:35:47,259
Of course. He will help.
394
00:35:48,270 --> 00:35:52,430
But Frederick must leave before he comes.
No one else must know he's here.
395
00:35:52,604 --> 00:35:55,002
I wish I'd met this Leonards.
396
00:35:55,971 --> 00:35:59,734
I don't see why I should have to run away
before the funeral.
397
00:36:01,071 --> 00:36:05,936
- I've a good mind to face it out and stand trial.
- No, you must go, Fred.
398
00:36:06,105 --> 00:36:12,164
If only I could find witnesses and defend myself,
to show what a monster Captain Reid was.
399
00:36:12,339 --> 00:36:15,363
You think a court martial
is where justice is administered.
400
00:36:15,540 --> 00:36:18,028
Fred has never tried to defend himself.
401
00:36:18,206 --> 00:36:22,264
How can I now? I can't send out the town crier.
402
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,771
I can't commission a pamphlet,
even if anyone would bother to read it.
403
00:36:26,941 --> 00:36:29,464
What about a lawyer?
404
00:36:31,075 --> 00:36:34,007
I know a lawyer who is honorable. And clever.
405
00:36:35,008 --> 00:36:38,270
I'm sure he would if I... Well, if we asked.
406
00:36:38,442 --> 00:36:40,772
Mr. Henry Lennox, Father. You remember.
407
00:36:40,943 --> 00:36:46,570
Do what you like. Write to Henry if you must,
but do not keep Frederick in England.
408
00:36:46,743 --> 00:36:49,232
Henry Lennox.
Is that Edith's brother-in-law?
409
00:36:49,410 --> 00:36:51,876
- Yes.
- He might be all right.
410
00:36:52,044 --> 00:36:55,374
I could write to him all the details
of the crew and the ship.
411
00:36:55,544 --> 00:36:59,068
You must leave tomorrow by the night train.
You can see Henry in London
412
00:36:59,245 --> 00:37:00,972
and take a boat from there.
413
00:37:21,847 --> 00:37:26,143
Only a few minutes more.
I don't know when I'll see you again.
414
00:37:41,015 --> 00:37:44,709
- Who was that?
- Mr. Thornton.
415
00:37:45,749 --> 00:37:48,238
What a scowl that man has.
416
00:37:49,150 --> 00:37:51,616
A very disagreeable fellow, I'm sure.
417
00:37:51,784 --> 00:37:55,944
As with most men, something has
happened to make him scowl, Fred.
418
00:37:56,117 --> 00:37:58,549
Don't judge him harshly.
419
00:37:59,685 --> 00:38:02,879
- I'll write soon.
- Hale?
420
00:38:03,952 --> 00:38:07,350
It is you, isn't it?
I thought I recognized you.
421
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:10,314
- I'm not Hale. Get off!
- What's all this, then?
422
00:38:10,485 --> 00:38:11,974
Stop!
423
00:38:12,153 --> 00:38:15,642
- Where you been hiding?
- Get off!
424
00:38:19,054 --> 00:38:21,383
All aboard!
425
00:38:21,553 --> 00:38:26,213
You must go now, Fred. Go!
426
00:38:28,554 --> 00:38:30,180
Go!
427
00:38:30,354 --> 00:38:33,617
- Go.
- God bless you, Margaret.
428
00:38:40,356 --> 00:38:42,447
Goodbye.
429
00:39:59,965 --> 00:40:02,624
If we'd been in Helstone chapel,
430
00:40:02,831 --> 00:40:06,423
it would have been full... of Mother's friends.
431
00:40:56,870 --> 00:41:00,030
How are they? Miss Hale and her father?
432
00:41:00,204 --> 00:41:05,137
As well as can be expected. Don't worry,
they have many people to look after them.
433
00:41:05,304 --> 00:41:08,634
- If there's anything I can do...
- Everything's taken care of.
434
00:41:08,805 --> 00:41:12,135
Well, not a great turnout, to be sure.
435
00:41:12,305 --> 00:41:14,999
The aunt is traveling in Italy, unfortunately.
436
00:41:16,672 --> 00:41:19,503
I'm surprised Lennox didn't turn up, though.
437
00:41:20,906 --> 00:41:24,703
Henry Lennox. Closely connected
to the family. He's a lawyer.
438
00:41:25,773 --> 00:41:28,262
I hear he takes an interest.
439
00:41:30,174 --> 00:41:34,198
But you can be sure I'll let you know
if your help is needed.
440
00:41:37,008 --> 00:41:39,600
- Mr. Thornton?
- Yes?
441
00:41:39,775 --> 00:41:41,968
Mason, isn't it? How do you do?
442
00:41:42,142 --> 00:41:46,268
Sorry to disturb you, sir,
but with your being the local magistrate...
443
00:41:48,710 --> 00:41:52,437
This fellow was found along
the station embankment two days ago.
444
00:41:52,609 --> 00:41:55,405
Died in hospital this morning.
445
00:41:55,577 --> 00:41:58,441
He's not from these parts.
446
00:41:58,610 --> 00:42:00,974
We're trying to identify him.
447
00:42:01,144 --> 00:42:03,632
Find out who killed him.
448
00:42:16,813 --> 00:42:22,474
- We thought we'd find you here at dinner-time.
- You're pretty sure of finding me here any time.
449
00:42:22,646 --> 00:42:24,840
- Please. Sit down.
- Thank you.
450
00:42:25,013 --> 00:42:28,343
You're out of work still, because of the strike?
451
00:42:28,513 --> 00:42:31,105
I'm out of work because I choose not to work.
452
00:42:31,281 --> 00:42:36,270
- Have you asked for work at your old mill?
- Hamper knows I'm good. He'd take me back.
453
00:42:36,448 --> 00:42:39,074
But now we're not allowed
to pay into the union.
454
00:42:39,248 --> 00:42:45,579
We do that so we can have a strike fund so we
can pay a shilling a week to those in hardship.
455
00:42:45,749 --> 00:42:49,579
Their thinking is, if we're not allowed,
there'll be no strikes.
456
00:42:49,749 --> 00:42:53,580
We're not asking masters to fund a strike.
We're not that simple.
457
00:42:53,750 --> 00:42:58,876
But where's the crime in giving to your own
out of your own wages, freely earned?
458
00:42:59,050 --> 00:43:02,141
- You earn a wage, don't you, Mr. Hale?
- Yes. Yes, I do.
459
00:43:02,317 --> 00:43:04,875
The people who pay you
don't tell you how to spend it.
460
00:43:05,051 --> 00:43:07,040
No.
461
00:43:07,218 --> 00:43:12,048
- No, they... they certainly don't.
- Do all the mills operate this new rule?
462
00:43:12,218 --> 00:43:16,514
Remember Boucher saying
the union was a tyrant?
463
00:43:17,919 --> 00:43:21,909
Sometimes the union has to force a man
to see what's good for him.
464
00:43:22,087 --> 00:43:25,349
- Boucher was always a fool.
- So he did the union harm?
465
00:43:25,519 --> 00:43:29,509
We had opinion on our side
till he started rioting and breaking the law.
466
00:43:29,687 --> 00:43:33,847
Wouldn't it have been better to leave him alone?
He did the union no good.
467
00:43:34,021 --> 00:43:36,044
And you drove him mad.
468
00:43:36,221 --> 00:43:38,619
- Margaret.
- She speaks her mind. I like it.
469
00:43:38,788 --> 00:43:42,845
She doesn't understand.
The union is a great power.
470
00:43:44,055 --> 00:43:46,885
The union is our only power.
471
00:43:48,556 --> 00:43:52,045
I'd best not talk about it.
I can't help feeling angry at Boucher.
472
00:43:52,223 --> 00:43:54,711
- There's no end to his mischief.
- Still?
473
00:43:54,889 --> 00:43:59,219
Oh, yeah. First of all he starts a riot,
then he goes into hiding.
474
00:43:59,390 --> 00:44:03,380
Thornton doesn't prosecute,
so he slinks back home, and what does he do?
475
00:44:03,558 --> 00:44:08,752
He goes off to Hamper's begging for work,
though that'd mean forsaking his union dues.
476
00:44:08,925 --> 00:44:13,290
To be fair to Hamper, he didn't listen
to Boucher. He drove him away.
477
00:44:13,459 --> 00:44:16,983
Even though they say he cried like a baby.
478
00:44:34,094 --> 00:44:36,925
- I found him in the canal beyond Ashley.
- Canal?
479
00:44:37,095 --> 00:44:40,425
Aye. Determined to kill himself, all right.
480
00:44:40,595 --> 00:44:43,152
It's Boucher. He's drowned himself.
481
00:44:44,095 --> 00:44:46,425
It can't be Boucher.
482
00:44:48,329 --> 00:44:50,886
He wouldn't have the nerve to drown himself.
483
00:44:58,997 --> 00:45:01,555
Why's my daddy's face purple?
484
00:45:01,731 --> 00:45:04,891
Water from the dyeing vats goes into that canal.
485
00:45:05,897 --> 00:45:09,830
Higgins. You knew him.
You must go and tell his wife.
486
00:45:09,998 --> 00:45:14,488
Do it now, man. We can't leave him here.
487
00:45:14,665 --> 00:45:16,325
I can't.
488
00:45:16,499 --> 00:45:18,362
I can't do it.
489
00:45:21,933 --> 00:45:24,229
Father?
490
00:45:26,567 --> 00:45:28,396
I'll go.
491
00:45:40,167 --> 00:45:43,793
No, no... He loved us all.
492
00:45:45,302 --> 00:45:48,029
And we loved him...
493
00:45:48,202 --> 00:45:53,931
and I spoke such terrible words about him
only a moment ago...
494
00:45:56,003 --> 00:45:58,595
What are we to do?
495
00:46:03,204 --> 00:46:08,194
Only a few days after,
Mrs. Boucher followed her husband to heaven,
496
00:46:08,371 --> 00:46:10,837
leaving their six children orphans.
497
00:46:13,038 --> 00:46:17,198
We buried them high above the city
in the fresh air,
498
00:46:17,372 --> 00:46:20,533
their worldly struggle and cares over forever.
499
00:46:25,940 --> 00:46:30,430
How much harder now for those of us
who are left behind to mourn.
500
00:47:14,544 --> 00:47:16,340
Excuse me, miss.
501
00:47:17,445 --> 00:47:19,604
It's a police inspector.
502
00:47:21,812 --> 00:47:26,302
I... I told him to go away,
but I didn't want to disturb the master.
503
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:29,640
- Did he say what he wanted?
- No, miss.
504
00:47:29,813 --> 00:47:33,609
I've shown him to the master's study,
but it's you he wants to see.
505
00:47:40,215 --> 00:47:44,147
I beg your pardon, ma'am,
especially at such a time.
506
00:47:45,582 --> 00:47:48,309
My duty obliges me
to ask you a few plain questions.
507
00:47:48,482 --> 00:47:52,744
A man's died at the infirmary,
following a fall, we think,
508
00:47:52,915 --> 00:47:57,109
after a fight at outwards station
between the hours of 11 and 12 at night
509
00:47:57,316 --> 00:48:00,283
on Thursday the 26th.
510
00:48:00,449 --> 00:48:05,144
Erm... at the time, the fight didn't appear
to be of much consequence.
511
00:48:05,317 --> 00:48:08,715
Doctors think he had a bad drinking habit
and some internal complaint.
512
00:48:08,884 --> 00:48:12,180
There will have to be an inquest.
513
00:48:13,218 --> 00:48:17,049
The witness, a grocer's assistant,
514
00:48:17,219 --> 00:48:22,049
stated that the fight was precipitated
by some drunken impertinence to a young lady
515
00:48:22,219 --> 00:48:25,050
who was walking with a man at the station.
516
00:48:25,219 --> 00:48:30,676
There is some reason to believe that
that young lady might be you, ma'am.
517
00:48:31,720 --> 00:48:34,208
I was not there.
518
00:48:35,387 --> 00:48:39,343
The witness said the lady
was remarkably handsome.
519
00:48:41,187 --> 00:48:43,176
He, er...
520
00:48:43,354 --> 00:48:46,582
he identified the lady
as a Miss Hale from Crampton,
521
00:48:46,755 --> 00:48:51,450
whose family frequent the shop.
You are the only Miss Hale from Crampton.
522
00:48:51,622 --> 00:48:53,850
Why, I... I don't know.
523
00:48:54,023 --> 00:48:57,978
Inspector, much as I would like
to own up to being...
524
00:48:58,156 --> 00:49:00,952
remarkably handsome,
525
00:49:01,123 --> 00:49:05,454
I'm sorry that I have to repeat
that there has been some mistake.
526
00:49:05,623 --> 00:49:09,056
- I was not there.
- I see.
527
00:49:12,025 --> 00:49:15,321
Do you have any more questions
for me, Inspector?
528
00:49:17,891 --> 00:49:20,187
No, madam.
529
00:49:23,625 --> 00:49:27,058
I have your absolute denial
that you were that lady?
530
00:49:27,226 --> 00:49:29,454
I'm sorry that he...
531
00:49:29,626 --> 00:49:32,457
that this man is dead.
532
00:49:32,626 --> 00:49:35,115
But I was not there.
533
00:49:35,293 --> 00:49:40,283
It may be that if my witness insists
that it was you at outwards station,
534
00:49:40,460 --> 00:49:44,450
then I may have to summon you
to an inquest to provide an alibi.
535
00:49:50,029 --> 00:49:53,018
I hope you'll forgive me for seeming impertinent.
536
00:49:53,195 --> 00:49:55,855
I have to do my duty.
537
00:50:04,897 --> 00:50:08,330
- Mr. Thornton!
- Ah, Mason. What's new?
538
00:50:08,497 --> 00:50:12,760
- The man we saw at the mortuary.
- Yes. Leonards, wasn't it?
539
00:50:12,930 --> 00:50:17,261
A drunk, obviously, but he met his death
by violence almost certainly.
540
00:50:17,431 --> 00:50:21,421
One of my mother's servants was engaged
to him. She's in great distress.
541
00:50:21,599 --> 00:50:25,588
- Are you acquainted with a Mr. Hale, sir?
- Yes, indeed. What of it?
542
00:50:25,766 --> 00:50:29,755
It's just that his death
is mixed up with Miss Hale, sir.
543
00:50:29,932 --> 00:50:32,364
I have a very secure chain of evidence
544
00:50:32,533 --> 00:50:35,658
that a gentleman walking out
with Miss Hale at the station
545
00:50:35,833 --> 00:50:38,561
fought with Leonards
and may have caused his death.
546
00:50:38,733 --> 00:50:42,564
- But the young lady denies she was there.
- Are you sure?
547
00:50:42,734 --> 00:50:45,360
Good day to you!
548
00:50:45,534 --> 00:50:49,365
Are you sure the man she was with
is connected to the death?
549
00:50:49,535 --> 00:50:54,524
- What evening was this? What time?
- Between 11 and 12. Thursday the 26th.
550
00:50:54,702 --> 00:50:56,464
Sir?
551
00:50:56,636 --> 00:50:59,193
Miss Hale denies she was there?
552
00:51:00,469 --> 00:51:02,697
So...
553
00:51:02,870 --> 00:51:08,201
You can see my problem, sir. I have a witness
who's pretty positive he saw Miss Hale,
554
00:51:08,370 --> 00:51:11,336
even though I've told him of her denial.
555
00:51:12,771 --> 00:51:15,636
There'll be a coroner's inquest.
556
00:51:15,804 --> 00:51:18,794
Disputed identifications are very awkward.
557
00:51:21,972 --> 00:51:25,769
One doesn't like to doubt the word
of a respectable young woman.
558
00:51:25,938 --> 00:51:30,769
- She denies she was at the station?
- Twice. Very emphatic about it.
559
00:51:30,939 --> 00:51:33,928
I did tell her I'd have to ask her again.
560
00:51:34,106 --> 00:51:36,937
I thought if you were a friend of the family...
561
00:51:37,106 --> 00:51:39,266
Quite right.
562
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:43,339
Don't do anything until you see me again.
I will look into it.
563
00:51:57,876 --> 00:52:00,365
Can't we give Jane the week off?
564
00:52:00,543 --> 00:52:03,805
She's better off without that scoundrel
Leonards, you know.
565
00:52:03,977 --> 00:52:09,467
You know what the servants are saying about
Margaret. Out after dark with a gentleman.
566
00:52:11,244 --> 00:52:14,369
I do not know or care what they say, Mother.
567
00:52:15,377 --> 00:52:17,570
And nor should you.
568
00:52:39,447 --> 00:52:42,107
You have come very late.
569
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,008
- Well?
- Sorry to keep you waiting, ma'am.
570
00:52:45,181 --> 00:52:49,944
I've had other people to see before now,
otherwise I would have been here sooner.
571
00:52:50,782 --> 00:52:55,805
There is, after all, to be no inquest
in the Leonards case.
572
00:52:55,982 --> 00:52:58,642
So there is to be no further investigation?
573
00:53:01,349 --> 00:53:03,941
Here. I have Mr. Thornton's notes.
574
00:53:04,116 --> 00:53:06,708
- Mr. Thornton?
- Yes.
575
00:53:06,883 --> 00:53:11,543
He's a magistrate in the case.
He's also an acquaintance of mine.
576
00:53:14,750 --> 00:53:17,216
I told him of the difficulties.
577
00:53:18,117 --> 00:53:20,606
"There will be no inquest...
578
00:53:20,785 --> 00:53:23,547
"Not enough medical evidence.
579
00:53:23,718 --> 00:53:28,708
"Take no further steps.
I... take full responsibility."
580
00:53:31,153 --> 00:53:33,244
Thank you.
581
00:53:33,420 --> 00:53:38,785
Mr. Thornton, he... understood
that I wasn't there? At the station?
582
00:53:38,953 --> 00:53:41,112
Yes. Of course.
583
00:53:41,953 --> 00:53:45,943
I'm sorry to have seemed
to have doubted your word, ma'am.
584
00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,450
The witness was so positive.
585
00:53:48,621 --> 00:53:53,020
But now he knows he was mistaken.
He hopes he hasn't caused offence.
586
00:53:54,355 --> 00:53:56,685
So...
587
00:53:56,855 --> 00:53:59,185
good evening, ma'am.
588
00:53:59,356 --> 00:54:01,515
I'll be on my way now.
589
00:54:28,526 --> 00:54:30,515
It's all right, Dixon.
590
00:54:31,959 --> 00:54:34,982
The matter has been resolved.
591
00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,524
It's over.
592
00:55:02,396 --> 00:55:04,725
Father is waiting in the sitting-room.
593
00:55:06,563 --> 00:55:09,324
Mr. Thornton?
594
00:55:09,496 --> 00:55:13,395
- I have to thank you.
- No. No thanks.
595
00:55:13,564 --> 00:55:16,553
I did not do anything for you.
596
00:55:16,731 --> 00:55:20,595
Do you not realize the risk that you take
in being so indiscreet?
597
00:55:20,764 --> 00:55:24,788
Have you no explanation
for your behavior that night?
598
00:55:24,964 --> 00:55:28,795
- You must imagine what I must think.
- Mr. Thornton, please...
599
00:55:30,232 --> 00:55:33,221
I'm aware of what you must think of me.
600
00:55:33,399 --> 00:55:37,889
I know how it must have appeared,
being with a stranger so late at night.
601
00:55:38,067 --> 00:55:40,329
The man you saw me with, he...
602
00:55:43,734 --> 00:55:48,860
The... the secret is another person's
and I cannot explain it without doing him harm.
603
00:55:51,901 --> 00:55:55,732
Is that you, John? Come on up.
604
00:55:55,902 --> 00:56:00,665
I have no wish
to pry into the gentleman's secrets.
605
00:56:00,835 --> 00:56:03,529
I'm only concerned as your father's friend.
606
00:56:03,702 --> 00:56:09,033
I hope you realize that any foolish passion
for you on my part is entirely over.
607
00:56:09,203 --> 00:56:11,863
I'm looking to the future.
