Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,639
I don't think you understand the
strength of feeling in the town,
2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:05,999
ma'am, against the blues.
3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,199
I've got this architect coming to
take a look at Northgate House.
4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:10,439
Oh, that's still our plan?
5
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:11,599
Oh, yes.
6
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,119
Have you had a letter
from your sister, ma'am?
7
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:15,399
No.
8
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,479
She's sent instruction
for evictions.
9
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,279
The Rawsons have now had between
four and five acres of your coal.
10
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,199
How could you know a thing
like that?
11
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,039
"The marriage of captain Tom Lister,
of Shibden Hall,
12
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:26,679
"to Miss Ann Walker of Crow Nest."
13
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,840
It's a joke. It's a skit.
14
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,560
INDISTINCT CHATTER AND SHOUTING
15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,759
DOOR SLAMS
16
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,199
I think it's genuine, the apology.
17
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,479
I think the editor really
had no idea
18
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:54,119
he was reprinting anything
other than a bona fide
19
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,679
marriage announcement.
20
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,359
Mm.
21
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,359
Internal inquires were made
at the newspaper office
22
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,639
about how the item came
to be reprinted.
23
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,679
It was inconclusive,
24
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,999
but the editor apologises
for not being more rigorous
25
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,520
before it went into print
a second time and for the...
26
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,679
..embarrassment it caused.
27
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,360
Oh, I wasn't embarrassed.
28
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,039
But this will satisfy Miss Walker
at least,
29
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,079
who did not expect to see it
reprinted in the Halifax Guardian.
30
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,879
Moving on...
31
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,239
Bradley has assessed
Northgate House.
32
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,559
He thinks I need to spend
another £1,000
33
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,639
to turn it into a good inn.
34
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,679
And then Thomas Greenwood's all for
leasing it at £200 a year,
35
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,559
although Bradley thinks
I should be asking nearer 300.
36
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,119
Would it not be wise,
37
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,839
at the risk of repeating myself,
38
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,679
to sell it and settle
some of your borrowing?
39
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,999
No! Good Lord, no.
We've had this conversation.
40
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,279
Oh, and I've decided
to accept Mawson's offer
41
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,959
for the tenancy of
the Stump Cross Inn.
42
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,719
Oh, well, he seems to be...
43
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,639
Good. I'll tell him to come and see
you about signing the lease.
44
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,479
And Mytholm, it looks like
Aquilla Green might take it.
45
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,759
Oh, I thought that Mallinson...
46
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,160
Mallinson is a yellow.
47
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:05,959
I spoke to him about it,
48
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,999
and he admitted he would
never dare give a blue vote,
49
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,919
so that's that. I told him until
he could we couldn't agree.
50
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:14,279
You do need to be careful.
51
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,399
Oh, yes. Electoral intimidation.
52
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,999
Yes, I suppose they'll have me up
before the select committee
53
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,639
before long, and believe you me,
I would go, and with pleasure.
54
00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:25,999
Yes, it's... The yellows are the
authors of this repugnant practice
55
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,519
of exclusive dealing,
Mr Parker, not me -
56
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,799
for all Mr William Briggs's efforts
to disclaim it in the Guardian.
57
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,159
And well may he do so,
for the yellows are the losers.
58
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,679
I had to be really quite sharp
with Mr Nicholson the other day,
59
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,919
due to the want of civility
shown Miss Walker
60
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:43,479
by one of his young men.
61
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,439
We may shop there again
because we pride ourselves
62
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,879
in rising above such nonsense,
but others won't,
63
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,359
not if they're addressed
so impertinently.
64
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,639
And then where would Mr Nicholson
be, hm?
65
00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:56,239
Out of business. I agree.
66
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,919
In a trading town like Halifax,
we all depend on...
67
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:01,279
And what was that idiotic
marriage announcement,
68
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,399
if not some feeble attempt
to intimidate, to humiliate me?
69
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,759
Some cowardly effort to point
a finger because they don't like
70
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,439
my opinions or the cut of my jib,
or any of it.
71
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,279
Yes, that's...
72
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:18,040
How dare anyone speak to me
about intimidation.
73
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,080
DOOR CLOSES
74
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,239
ANNE SIGHS
How are you getting on?
75
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,959
We've had some very bad news.
76
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,799
MARIAN: Is that Anne?
77
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,319
Mr Sunderland's dead.
78
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,919
We've just had a note
from Dr Kenny.
79
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,879
He was with him all last night,
80
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,239
him and Dr Jubb, and then he died,
81
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,239
just gone midnight,
just like that.
82
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,959
Well, what was the matter
with him?
83
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,959
Gout of the stomach, apparently.
84
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,799
Although...
85
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,839
Aunt. Oh...
86
00:04:21,840 --> 00:04:23,799
Apparently, he was knocked down,
87
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,119
in Halifax, in some skirmish.
88
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,879
And this was after the election
result was declared.
89
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,479
Well, he must've got caught up
in the throng
90
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,280
and banged his head and...
91
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,279
They think he was trampled on.
92
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:40,799
No. Where will it end,
all this nastiness?
93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,199
You're perfectly safe, Aunt.
94
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,479
Yes, I am, but what about you?
You're never in.
95
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,359
Well, I'm never very far away,
96
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,559
and I have a lot of business
on hand so...
97
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,039
Oh, poor, poor Mr Sunderland.
98
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,639
Dr Kenny's offered to visit
Aunt Anne if she... No!
99
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,279
No. No, no, no.
100
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:57,319
No. We'll send for Dr Jubb
101
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,919
when we need someone.
102
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,079
But Dr Kenny's offering...
CAPTAIN LISTER: Anne?
103
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,239
Is that her?
104
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:03,319
Oh, yes.
105
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,960
Father wants to see you. Mm.
106
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:07,519
I'd rather see Dr Jubb.
107
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,119
I don't know what's the matter
with Dr Kenny. He's perfectly...
108
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,159
DOOR SLAMS
109
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,839
Yes, Father? Where have you been?
110
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:14,239
Nowhere. Well, Halifax.
111
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,079
Now I'm going to the pit
to see Hinscliffe.
112
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,799
This arrived. Shut the door!
113
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,039
MARIAN: Oh!
114
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,319
This came. I opened it.
115
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,719
I assumed it was for me,
Captain Lister.
116
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,759
But clearly not.
117
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,599
Some wit, some wag,
118
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,799
begging to "congratulate
the parties
119
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,559
"on their happy connection".
120
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:35,799
Who's seen this?
121
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,799
Nobody.
122
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,159
Has Miss Walker seen this?
123
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,839
No! Has Aunt Anne seen this?
124
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:42,400
No. Just me.
125
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,199
It'll be the Briggses.
126
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,399
10-to-1 it's the Briggses.
127
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,359
You know, if you didn't draw
attention to how odd you are,
128
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,959
they wouldn't do these things.
129
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,399
HE SIGHS
130
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,799
You'd better get up and get dressed
and get some fresh air.
131
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,080
You won't recover lying
in bed all day.
132
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,199
I'm amazed you've been at it
this long and not got it sunk.
133
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,999
Well, we've been unlucky.
134
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,839
It collapsed at one point, and then
we had to put everything on hold
135
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:15,279
to build the drift.
136
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:19,559
Oh, and there was another pantomime
finding a horse fit to turn the gin.
137
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,039
That was Holt.
138
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,839
But we're at 90 yards now,
139
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:25,199
and they're confident they can
reach the lower bed
140
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,119
by June, July...August.
141
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,839
But, yes, this is why a second
opinion wouldn't go amiss.
142
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:34,679
I can't afford any more delays.
I need good advice.
143
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,280
I do like Holt, but...
144
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,719
What's the plan once it's sunk?
145
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,159
Where will you sell it,
up here or down in Halifax?
146
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,279
Both.
147
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:46,639
Pickles is building a new road along
the top to join the Old Bank,
148
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:47,919
just below Whiskham.
149
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,399
Then I can cart it down
into Halifax, sell it there
150
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,999
for a shilling more than I can
at the pit mouth.
151
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,400
But...
152
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:01,639
..getting and selling coal
is just one part of the scheme.
153
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,919
Mm-hm. The other would be...
154
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:08,039
..to be in a position where I could
throw water on Rawson's pit.
155
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,159
Not just to stop the trespass,
but to prove it.
156
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,959
And soon.
157
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,079
Well, like I said, we might have
fallen out over that business
158
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,759
up at Willy Hill pit,
159
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,879
but when it comes to dealing
with the Rawsons
160
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,440
I'll be a friend to anyone
who'll be a friend to me.
161
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,039
Thank you.
162
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,919
Did you know I've bought Staups?
163
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,959
So you've got Spiggs colliery?
164
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,519
There's a little complication
that needs dealing with,
165
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,799
but, yes, strategically,
potentially,
166
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,599
it gives me more options
167
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,399
and a lot more control over the coal
across the whole of my estate.
168
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,039
Oh, I can see that.
169
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,720
If it's handled well.
170
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,399
I don't know that I can rely on Holt
to come up with a good, solid,
171
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,279
coordinated plan and see it through
without me having to manage
172
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,000
the thing myself.
173
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,719
But if you helped me...
174
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:18,199
I've been thinking for a while
about opening a new pit,
175
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,680
further down this way.
176
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,279
Sounds like you've got a plan.
177
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,039
Why would you need me?
178
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,760
Because I don't know enough.
179
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,239
I learn more and more every day,
and the more I learn
180
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,639
the more I realise how much
can go wrong
181
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,519
and how much I don't know,
182
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,559
and just what a slippery business
it all is.
183
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:40,000
See, this is why
I don't dislike Holt.
184
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,640
For all of his faults, I...
185
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,319
I do believe he's as straight
as a die.
186
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,639
Whereas you, Hinscliffe,
187
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,800
I'm not really sure I could trust
you any further than I could spit.
188
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,239
Not that I ever would.
189
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,959
You can think what you like
about me, Miss Lister,
190
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,879
but the bottom line is I'm hoping,
if I do you a favour,
191
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,359
happen next time I need one back,
192
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,999
you'd be more inclined to oblige me
than you were last time.
193
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:14,640
What's this "little complication"
that needs dealing with?
194
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,079
William Keighley and John Oates
and Jack Green believe
195
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,039
they have some kind of claim
to the loose coal
196
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,239
underneath Spiggs' land - which,
to be clear, I already owned,
197
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,999
but which they can only access via
my newly acquired colliery.
198
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,279
But there's nothing about it
in my uncle's records,
199
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,039
which there would be if he'd have
come to an arrangement with them
200
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,559
about the loose.
201
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:38,159
So I'm wondering about
flooding Spiggs,
202
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,319
which I can do because I own it,
203
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,959
and stopping them taking the loose.
204
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,079
Except, then, the worry is
I might flood Walker pit
205
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,239
at the same time, before
I've bottomed it
206
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,359
and got to the trespass.
207
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,760
You wouldn't.
208
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,159
Really?
209
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,959
If you flooded Spiggs,
it wouldn't touch Walker pit.
210
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:02,999
Oh?
211
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,239
Now, will you tell Holt
you're getting rid of him,
212
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:07,640
or shall I?
213
00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:12,200
KNOCK ON DOOR
214
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,640
Holt.
215
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:18,679
I-I won't come in.
216
00:10:18,680 --> 00:10:20,919
So I need to talk to you about...
217
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,239
How are you, ma'am?
218
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:26,519
Very well. So the thing is...
Thank you. The thing is...
219
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,119
What it is... I was going to
pop over and see you today
220
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,839
about Mr Walker Priestley's coal
and Mrs Machin's coal.
221
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,959
What about them?
222
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,199
Well, he will sell his coal
at £160 an acre.
223
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,639
Both beds, hard and soft,
upper and lower.
224
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,279
I've offered him 140. He's asked
for ten days to think about it,
225
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,999
but between you and me I'd go up to
160 rather than miss the deal,
226
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,359
because he'll be tempted to go
to Rawson otherwise.
227
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,319
And we don't want that, do we?
228
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,079
Not down there!
229
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,719
Same at the Machins'.
230
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,679
Now, they've promised me
first refusal.
231
00:10:56,680 --> 00:10:58,959
And it's more complicated again
with them, like.
232
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,239
You know she drinks. Who does?
233
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,399
She does, Mrs Machin.
No, I didn't know that,
234
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,919
but how... How would I know that?
235
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,799
Thing is the land was left
half to her
236
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,039
and half to her children,
237
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,799
and they don't all get on.
238
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,959
Well, there's one daughter
in York Castle for debt.
239
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,639
So they all have to agree who
they sell their coal rights to,
240
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,679
and they can hardly agree
which way is up,
241
00:11:21,680 --> 00:11:23,599
never mind who they might sell
their coal to.
242
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,119
Now, I'm well in with 'em...
243
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,479
Well enough. As well as anybody.
244
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,119
..and they'd sell it to me rather
than him, Rawson, by choice -
245
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,599
me buying on your behalf, of course,
not that they need know that.
246
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,399
But if he offers them a premium,
247
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,559
one of 'em might get it into their
heads to go with him.
248
00:11:41,560 --> 00:11:44,159
And you can't let that happen,
249
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,039
not down there,
250
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:50,519
otherwise Rawson's got another back
door straight onto your beds.
251
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,600
Do you see that? Mm.
252
00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:00,679
If I was to flood Spiggs colliery
to stop access to the loose coal,
253
00:12:00,680 --> 00:12:04,159
there's no danger that I could
accidentally flood Walker pit
254
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,399
at the same time, is there?
255
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:06,799
Oh, yes.
256
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,519
Well, it's highly probable
you wou...
257
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,320
Who's told you different?
258
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,719
ANNE SIGHS
I don't know who to believe.
259
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,359
I was going to let Holt go,
but I... I need him.
260
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,119
I just need to manage them
all better.
261
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,599
I told Holt that he must take care
of Mr Walker Priestley's coal
262
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,239
for me, and the Machins, and then
I explained that I'd instructed
263
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,719
Hinscliffe to work up a plan to
look after Walker pit for me.
264
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,199
How did he take that?
265
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,000
Badly, but...
266
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,479
..I need to glean what I can
from them all,
267
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,519
and then...
268
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,239
..make my own judgments.
269
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,159
Mm.
270
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,959
They say that Holt drinks, but...
271
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,479
..I've never smelt it on him.
272
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,439
Well, he's getting on a bit,
isn't he?
273
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,920
Perhaps he's just...forgetting.
274
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,839
I'm sorry if I upset you,
275
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,559
this morning.
276
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:11,959
I've always tried to do my best
for you,
277
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,759
one way and another.
278
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,679
It's just I...
279
00:13:15,680 --> 00:13:17,400
I haven't always known how.
280
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,480
And I'm sorry if I said
the wrong thing.
281
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,359
Are you sure about
this Northgate business,
282
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,079
turning it into a hotel?
283
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,799
It'll cost money.
284
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,159
And...
285
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,959
..what if it fails?
286
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,080
You don't want to get yourself
laughed at.
287
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,919
Goodnight.
288
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,400
Goodnight.

Adney?
291
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:06,880
Stop leaning on me.
292
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,479
What's the matter, hm?
293
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,679
My little Adney.
294
00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:14,160
You need to brush your teeth.
295
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,279
I read your letter,
296
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,520
to Lady Harriet in Copenhagen.
297
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,519
Was there something the matter
with it?
298
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,479
Was it not elegantly expressed?
299
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:29,679
Hm?
300
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,279
Adney, I thought you'd like it.
301
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,360
I thought you'd be charmed by it.
302
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,200
Was it the bit about you?
303
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,759
Adney?
304
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,959
I did ask if I might mention you
and you were delighted. Did I...
305
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,560
Did I misread that?
306
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,199
SHE SIGHS
Adney, I've had a long day.
307
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,959
I've been dealing with men all day.
308
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,359
Tiresome, inarticulate men.
309
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,719
Read it.
310
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,079
Aloud.
311
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:01,280
The bit about me.
312
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,080
SHE CLEARS THROAT
313
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,279
Ah.
314
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,519
"You used to wonder
who would be my companion.
315
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,719
"I think I have provided one
you will like.
316
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,759
"She is little and amiable with
a great deal of common sense
317
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,199
"and good feeling.
318
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,359
"She is now with me here
at Shibden,
319
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,200
"and I have never before been
so comfortable at home."
320
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,959
What's not to like?
321
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:37,359
It's in brackets.
322
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,759
You've put me in brackets!
323
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,639
It's a clause, an aside,
in a bigger paragraph
324
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,480
about when she and I hope...
325
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,639
..when we all will next meet.
326
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,839
Yes, I'm a clause. I'm an aside.
327
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,999
Nonsense. It's an elegant
interjection.
328
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,159
I've been canvassed over.
329
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,999
No, you've been elegantly
introduced.
330
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,199
As an afterthought.
331
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,519
Well, I'm sorry if you think
that's how it reads.
332
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,599
"I'm sorry if you think..."
Oh, I hate that -
333
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:01,959
that's what men say.
334
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,999
"I'm sorry if YOU'RE so stupid
that YOU'VE misunderstood."
335
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,599
I never said anything about stupid,
nor would I.
336
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,440
It's an ugly word. It's implicit.
337
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,679
Well, then, I shall go and
rewrite my letter.
338
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,039
No.
339
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,999
You needn't do that. I wouldn't wish
to put you to the trouble.
340
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,319
You could merely delete
any reference to me.
341
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,880
That would answer.
342
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,959
Useful to know where I am...
343
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,399
..in the pecking order.
344
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,880

My bowels are all wrong again.
349
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,040
SOBBING
350
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,039
SNIFFLING
351
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,640
ANNE SIGHS
352
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,760
KNOCK ON DOOR
353
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,440
Adney?
354
00:17:47,360 --> 00:17:49,120
Can I come in?
355
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,520
It's your house.
356
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,040
Don't say that.
357
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,399
I'm sorry if I...
358
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:06,599
..hurt you.
359
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,119
That's the last thing I'd...
360
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:09,319
It's just...
361
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,599
..striking the right note
in a letter like that...
362
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,479
People are laughing at us.
363
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,999
No... No, they're not.
364
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:21,079
Lady Harriet would never be
so cruel or vulgar...
365
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,839
In Halifax, they are.
366
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,599
That idiotic marriage announcement,
367
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,759
reprinted twice, and then that
humiliating business at Nicholson's.
368
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:35,279
Oh, I think if anyone's humiliated
at Nicholson's, it's not us -
369
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,399
it's Nicholson's silly lads.
370
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,359
I shan't go back there.
I know you want us to...
371
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:41,279
No, we must.
372
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,880
We must make a point of going in
there again and again.
373
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:51,839
We must be consistently clear
that we have nothing to hide,
374
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,560
nothing to be ashamed of.
375
00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:00,519
I'm not strong like you.
376
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,360
I dwell on things.
377
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,999
Do you remember at Crow Nest
378
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,239
when Mrs Priestley
walked in on us,
379
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,279
and you laughed?
380
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,599
I was mortified, and you...
381
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,039
You laughed.
382
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,399
I think, in that moment,
383
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,360
I saw for the first time
the real you.
384
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,040
Who is as brave as anyone.
385
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,880
You're stronger than you think.
386
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,759
What I'm wondering, Miss Lister,
387
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,399
is if we've been thinking too small.
388
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,959
I had expected ground plans and
elevations, Mr Bradley,
389
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,879
based on our last conversation,
not more sketches.
390
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,719
Oh, they're well under way.
391
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,399
But you've got all this land.
392
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:13,919
And I know that you want your inn,
393
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,839
casino - whatever you want
to call it -
394
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,359
up and running by March next year,
395
00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:19,919
but within that same timescale -
frame...
396
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,039
This all depends how ambitious
you want to be.
397
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,679
Oh, I don't think anyone can accuse
me of lacking ambition, Mr Bradley.
398
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,319
So... Exactly.
399
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:31,039
So what if... And this is something
you could easily accommodate
400
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,079
in the available space - it all
depends upon how much capital
401
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,279
you've got to play with.
402
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,839
But what if we were to build
new premises here too,
403
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,560
for, say, a bank?
404
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,200
And a news room?
405
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,359
And instead of four or five houses,
406
00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:53,160
you've enough land here for
28 brand-new houses.
407
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,239
This entire area could become
a whole new commercial
408
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,799
enclave within the town.
409
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:05,040
And think of the income that
that could generate in rent.
410
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,520
Hmm.
411
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,759
You're going to need a licence
for this, ah, inn,
412
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,879
casino, whatever we're calling it
this week.
413
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,799
And if you're serious,
I'd apply for it now.
414
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,039
There's no point in throwing
money at the thing and then
415
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,839
finding the magistrates
won't license it.
416
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,919
Well, why wouldn't they?
417
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,359
Well, it's just with
Christopher Rawson
418
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:30,679
being the chief magistrate...
419
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,119
Well, he'd have no reason.
420
00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:35,079
I mean, such an establishment could
only be an asset to the town.
421
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,640
Yes, but we both know
what he's like.
422
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,119
Leave it with me. Yeah.
423
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:45,999
Mr Bradley thinks I'd need
to spend another £4,000
424
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,639
on this new scheme.
425
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,799
Miss Lister... Oh, I've been
meaning to ask.
426
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,399
If I were a man, for which
I have 1001 reasons to thank
427
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,359
heaven and providence that I'm not,
428
00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:02,480
would you even think to question
the amount of money I'm borrowing?
429
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,640
HE CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY
430
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:21,840
All right?
431
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,959
Mr Booth.
432
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,239
Dr Jubb.
433
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,519
Have you heard the news, sir?
Which, sir?
434
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,879
Parliament, sir. Dissolved.
435
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,840
Oh, yeah. We all know about it.
Miss Lister's...
436
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,679
AUNT ANNE: So we must endure
an indifferent Melbourne
437
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:54,719
once again.
438
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,279
And we might've had the intellect
and integrity of appeal.
439
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,079
And you'll have heard the latest,
in Halifax.
440
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,799
If Charles Wood is offered
high office
441
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,559
in the new Whig administration,
442
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,519
which they seem to think
he will be,
443
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,799
it'll trigger a by-election.
444
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:09,279
Another election? Oh...
445
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,639
And people are saying
Mr Rawson himself
446
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:12,799
will stand this time.
447
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,439
Mr Rawson? Mr Christopher Rawson?
448
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,999
So vexed was he by the attack
on his property
449
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,479
a few short weeks ago.
450
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,359
Is that a good idea?
451
00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:25,439
Would not Mr Henry Edwards
be a better choice of
452
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,079
candidate for Halifax?
453
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,039
Mr Henry Edwards?
454
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,879
I doubt he has either the money
or the stomach for it.
455
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,359
I think Mr Henry Edwards
might surprise us all,
456
00:23:34,360 --> 00:23:36,479
given the chance. Hm, Aunt?
457
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,919
Would you not support
Mr Rawson, Miss Lister,
458
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,759
with your great influence?
459
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,759
Yes.
460
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,639
Without doubt,
without question.
461
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:50,719
If he was the chosen Tory candidate
and I had influence over 1000 votes,
462
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,439
then he should have every
one of them.
463
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,959
I just question whether
a man who has...
464
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,119
..offended members of some
of the oldest families in Halifax
465
00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:03,519
is best placed to unite
the Tory vote in a way that's
466
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,679
necessary in such difficult times?
467
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,199
Has he? Has he?
468
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,199
Whereas Mr Henry Edwards...
Mm. Well, Mr Rawson is...
469
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,879
He can be, erm...
470
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:17,999
..abrasive.
471
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,400
KNOCK ON DOOR
472
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,439
Is Miss Lister...
473
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,959
There's a Mr William Keighley
downstairs, ma'am.
474
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,119
He says Mr Hinscliffe's
sent him to...
475
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:30,200
Something about Staups,
Spiggs colliery.
476
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,439
Perhaps, Dr Jubb,
when you do your rounds,
477
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,999
you could intimate to anyone
who's concerned
478
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,479
that others, such as
Mr Henry Edwards,
479
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,999
might be better placed
to lead the way
480
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,959
and unite the blue vote.
481
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,839
No need to say from whence
the thought sprang.
482
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,879
My aunt and I would hate
to be thought of
483
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,800
as intermeddlers in anything
political.
484
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,919
DOOR CLOSES
485
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,080
FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
486
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:08,759
Mr Keighley!
487
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:09,959
Miss Lister.
488
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,040
Come through.
489
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,959
So it's a record of
all the expenses I've had
490
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,359
driving the drift through
Well Royd Holmes.
491
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:27,719
Totals £507, 16 shillings
and five pence,
492
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,719
which you'll appreciate
I'd not have spent
493
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,319
had I not had this agreement
with your uncle over the Spiggs coal
494
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,079
in the first place.
495
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,760
Now, if you look in the back...
496
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,639
..you'll see there's a memorandum.
497
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:44,559
£100, paid by me to your Uncle James
to get all the coal in Spiggs land.
498
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,479
But the fact is there's no record
to corroborate any of this
499
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:48,919
in my uncle's accounts.
500
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,279
Well, I know nowt about that.
501
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,519
I just know I've spent a lot of
money in good faith.
502
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,999
Why is this memorandum at the back
and not in the correct chronology
503
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,480
with the earlier parts
of the accounts?
504
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:00,999
It... It's just...
505
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,280
It's just the way I did it.
506
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,239
I know it wouldn't stand up
in a court of law,
507
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,879
but, you know, let's hope
it doesn't go that far.
508
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,439
It's just the only record
I've got of what we agreed.
509
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,959
The problem, from my point of view -
510
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,199
and I only ever wish
to do that which is fair -
511
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,519
I've just bought Staups for
a significant sum
512
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,959
and I need some return
on my investment.
513
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,759
If you try and get Spiggs coal,
514
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,999
I will flood the pit
to prevent access
515
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,839
and try the matter at York.
516
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,999
I'm sorry, but there it is.
517
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,839
Not only did my uncle make
no record of it,
518
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,159
but he never mentioned anything
of the matter to me
519
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,039
at the time, and nothing
of this arose in the last
520
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,079
however many months it's taken to
complete the purchase of Staups,
521
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,280
with the searches and so forth,
so...
522
00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:54,799
You do know, if you flood Spiggs
523
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,839
you'll flood your little pit
up here.
524
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,079
Not necessarily.
525
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,599
Almost certainly you would.
526
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,719
There seems to be some difference
of opinion on that.
527
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,879
Who's told you otherwise?
528
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,039
Hinscliffe?
529
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,159
HE SCOFFS
Well, he would say that.
530
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,679
He would say the opposite
and then happily watch it flood.
531
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,639
And do you know why?
532
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,000
Because he's had more of your coal
than the Rawsons have.
533
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:36,359
Morning, ma'am.
534
00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:38,199
Has Mr Hinscliffe been up
to see you today?
535
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:39,839
He popped up this morning.
536
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,239
I suppose you and your brothers
think I'm foolish
537
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,000
to trust him above Holt?
538
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,439
Who's to say?
539
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,759
I don't necessarily trust him.
540
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,239
I'm just using him to get some
information from him.
541
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,479
If I was to stop the loose
at Spiggs,
542
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,159
how would it affect this pit,
543
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:58,839
in your opinion?
544
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,119
Oh, I...
545
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:03,599
Would it flood it,
or would it not flood it?
546
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,199
Well, our Robert'd have an opinion.
547
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,759
He'd certainly know about Spiggs.
548
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,479
He's worked all t'mines round here.
549
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:09,879
Where is Robert?
550
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,120
HE CHUCKLES
551
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,239
He's...digging.
552
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:16,279
Ah.
553
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,439
So was it right, then,
what Mr Hinscliffe said?
554
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,599
You're thinking of sinking another
pit further down nearer t'Hall?
555
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,199
Only I hope you'd consider us,
ma'am,
556
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:25,599
to sink it, if you did.
557
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:26,880
For the right price.
558
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,599
What's the plan, then?
559
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:30,720
The plan...
560
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,359
..would be to sink
this other pit somewhere,
561
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:38,999
50 or 60 yards Shibden Hall
side of Walker pit,
562
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,999
and drive two drifts up to it
from such a place in the lower land
563
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,600
as I could build a water-wheel
to power a pit engine.
564
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,359
Speak to Robert.
565
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,440
Tell him to come and see me if he
thinks he can be useful, hm?
566
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,399
Anne!
567
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,399
Ah. There you are.
568
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,479
I've found something,
in my family papers.
569
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,959
Well, two things, actually.
One I half-knew
570
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,639
but I'd half-forgotten,
and the other, I had no idea.
571
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,079
What?
572
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,799
Well, it would... It would appear
that, erm...
573
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,279
What?
574
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,759
Well, erm, that in 1831
my sister, legally,
575
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,279
through lease and re-lease
and some sort of deed of sale,
576
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,399
conveyed all of her property
onto Captain Sutherland.
577
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,439
All of it, everything.
All her share of the estate.
578
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,679
And that's contrary,
directly contrary,
579
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,039
to a provision set out
by my father in his will,
580
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,159
which protects us both
from having to submit
581
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,599
our fortunes to any husbands.
582
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:49,679
Does it?
583
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:50,959
I mean, why would she do that?
584
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,879
Why would she give up
that protection?
585
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,279
And why would she not tell me
that's what she was doing?
586
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,599
So... Hang on. So your father...
587
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,439
So my father made provision
in his will,
588
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:00,959
in the event of my brother's death,
589
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,199
for me and Elizabeth to jointly
inherit everything.
590
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,359
But he also made what I was always
given to believe was
591
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,559
an unshakeable clause, contrary to
the normal way of doing things,
592
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,039
that stated that,
should we ever get married,
593
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,039
we must, and would, retain
ownership in our own
594
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:14,199
share of the estate, but...
595
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,919
That was interesting of him,
to do that. Yes, but in 1831...
596
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,159
He never mentioned this when
Ainsworth was sniffing about.
597
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,039
Yes, no. Exactly.
598
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,999
He did it to deter fortune hunters
like him. But then, in 1831,
599
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,079
three years after they were married,
600
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,999
she submitted everything to him,
to Captain Sutherland.
601
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,159
And, Anne, I just...
602
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,039
I can't believe she would've
done that willingly.
603
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,319
He must've bullied and cajoled
and coerced her
604
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,959
into signing away her half of
the family's... Everything,
605
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,879
knowing that it's contrary to
what my father intended.
606
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,559
Anne, she'd never hurt me.
607
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,999
And there are few things in this
world I have the confidence
608
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,439
to state so boldly, but one thing
I know for sure is
609
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,039
that Elizabeth would never
willingly cheat me out of
610
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,079
what's ours, but she has
because of him.
611
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:57,279
Cheated you how?
612
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,999
Some of its property that
on her death would've reverted
613
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,799
to the estate, to me.
614
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,559
They don't know that I might
not still have children.
615
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,359
He's found a legal loophole to
make a mockery of it all,
616
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,760
and to, well, to steal it.
617
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,839
What was the other thing?
618
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,639
So, John - my John -
always used to complain
619
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,359
that Mr Priestley
and his brother John
620
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,399
had worked their way into
my uncle's affections
621
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,399
till he ended up leaving them
things in his will
622
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,839
that should've remained entailed
to my father.
623
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,839
I never thought of it
as my business
624
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,759
but then here it is in
black and white.
625
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,039
They have had three properties
from us,
626
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,559
substantial properties.
627
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,399
Blackcastle, which is an allotment
to High Sunderland,
628
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,079
Hall End in Halifax
629
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,439
and Longley Farm over in Norland.
630
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,879
My uncle had no right
to give them away,
631
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,999
and it galls me even more since
the Priestleys have been
632
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,999
so objectionable to us.
633
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,719
Parker drew this up.
634
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,679
But who did the legal work
on this other business
635
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,519
with Captain and Mrs Sutherland?
636
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:53,560
Erm...
637
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,159
Parker and Adam.
638
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,599
I've never liked Parker.
639
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,799
I don't know why you put
so much faith in him.
640
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,519
Maybe it's not irreversible.
641
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,640
Let's go and consult Mr Gray
in York on both matters.
642
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,999
Do you think my family have
any clue about what
643
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,520
Captain Sutherland's done?
644
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,559
Of course we knew.
645
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:15,719
We all knew.
646
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:16,879
All but me!
647
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,159
Oh, well, you weren't well.
We kept it from you.
648
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,959
All your cousins and uncles
and aunts knew.
649
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,319
And it's precisely because of it
that we've been so zealous in trying
650
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,559
to protect you and your fortune.
651
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,239
But, no, Elizabeth wouldn't've...
652
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,239
Elizabeth did it without scruple!
653
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,119
I don't believe for a second...
654
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,719
He ran rings around her.
655
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,639
She'd have done anything he asked.
656
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,639
Sense was out of the window,
657
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,999
and she might well regret it now,
now it's too late.
658
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,719
And that weak, odious
Robert Parker...
659
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,959
He was meant to be acting
for the family
660
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,759
but no, no...
661
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,320
No, Sutherland ran rings
round him too.
662
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,960
I'm half-minded to change my will.
663
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,080
I thought you already had.
664
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,119
No. When? No.
665
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,119
You made Miss Lister your executor
instead of your cousin,
666
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:07,960
Mr Priestley, last year.
667
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,199
Who told you that?
668
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,639
Well, she did.
669
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,079
Last spring.
670
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:15,439
When you went missing,
671
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,839
when you absented yourself
in York.
672
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,759
She used to come over here,
laying the law down.
673
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,439
I made her my executor, yes,
674
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,679
but the contents remain unchanged.
675
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,039
I certainly wouldn't change it
without telling you,
676
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,479
even if others have behaved
as they have.
677
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,319
What? What's the matter?
678
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:34,640
I...
679
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,479
Oh.
680
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,039
Aunt?
681
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,039
I, erm...
682
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,439
Well, I had imagined, with all
this talk of a formal division
683
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:50,079
of the estate, that you had already
changed the will itself.
684
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,679
How? No.
685
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,280
In Miss Lister's favour.
686
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,200
Well, that's...
687
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,759
..a possibility.
688
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,039
And, yes, if I never have children,
689
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,599
and if Miss Lister and I
were to continue
690
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,559
as such kind companions, well,
691
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,159
yes, I hope we would think
to make some provision
692
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,599
for one another,
but as things stand,
693
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,639
no, it still all goes
to Elizabeth
694
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,279
and then to Sackville.
695
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:19,400
Well...
696
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,079
..I changed mine when you moved
into Shibden Hall.
697
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,199
I removed you from it,
698
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:27,960
in Elizabeth's favour.
699
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,239
There was a letter for you
this morning,
700
00:34:52,240 --> 00:34:54,359
in the post-bag.
701
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:55,680
From Washington.
702
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,240
Where is it?
703
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,119
Oh, do you want to see it?
704
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,559
I don't know.
Is it interesting?
705
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,400
The distresses you requested
have all been carried out.
706
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,719
SHE WHISPERS: I didn't request
anything.
707
00:35:11,720 --> 00:35:14,679
A Mrs Greaves went
to Shibden Hall begging
708
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,679
not to be evicted, but apparently
your sister wouldn't hear of it.
709
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,839
She was determined
to carry out the, ah...
710
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,119
Your...our...
711
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,720
..request to the very letter.
712
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,799
What a cruel time of year
to evict people.
713
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,799
Well, yes, I agree.
714
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,399
But if she wants a division
of the estate,
715
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,800
things must be put in order.
716
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,079
Washington tells me he's submitted
a proposal to her, to Ann,
717
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,679
for what he believes to be a fair
division of the various lots
718
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,519
of the estate, based partly
on contiguity
719
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,199
and partly on value, so...
720
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,719
We shall see what she sends us,
721
00:35:51,720 --> 00:35:53,879
when she's gone through it.
722
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,239
Although, I'm tempted...
723
00:35:56,240 --> 00:35:58,479
Oh, I don't know. What?
724
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,959
I still don't know why
there's this great urgency
725
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:02,679
for the thing.
726
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,039
There's something
in her last few letters.
727
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,599
This...
HE SIGHS
728
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,879
..litigious tone.
729
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:16,440
She's suddenly become so confident,
so well informed.
730
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,159
I'm wondering whether
you shouldn't write to her
731
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:25,199
and say that, whilst in principle
we...you're happy with the division,
732
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,679
you think it might be better to wait
until we can visit them,
733
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,040
when the weather's
better for travelling.
734
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,279
That would be...
735
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,479
Yes, I'd like that.
736
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,120
Good. Good!
737
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,879
I think, before we sign off
on the thing,
738
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,119
we should satisfy ourselves
739
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,999
there's nothing nefarious
going on
740
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,919
with your family.
741
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,239
Although, as I say, I always
imagined Miss Lister would
742
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:52,879
protect her from any nonsense. Mm.
743
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,800
Yes, curious woman...
744
00:36:56,240 --> 00:36:57,560
..Miss Lister.
745
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,079
Well, I'm delighted Miss Walker's
gone to see her aunt.
746
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,279
Not that I dislike her,
not for a moment.
747
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,119
I'm thrilled for her and just
jealous that she has you
748
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,040
to gaze at all day.
749
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,319
When I'm in.
MRS RAWSON CHUCKLES
750
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,399
This is the second time
in three months.
751
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:16,880
What are you after?
752
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:19,800
Only to gaze upon you.
753
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,279
I was telling you about my planned
developments at Northgate House.
754
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:25,879
Oh, yes.
755
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:27,719
Your Uncle Joseph would be livid!
756
00:37:27,720 --> 00:37:29,719
ANNE LAUGHS
Yes.
757
00:37:29,720 --> 00:37:31,999
Yes, but the world moves forward,
and sometimes
758
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:33,959
we have to move with it.
759
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,759
And don't you agree, Mrs Rawson,
760
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,399
that this whole enterprise
could be a huge boon for the town?
761
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:40,719
Oh, yes, yes.
762
00:37:40,720 --> 00:37:43,239
Well, the town gets bigger
by the week.
763
00:37:43,240 --> 00:37:46,999
Precisely, and this could create
a whole new enclave.
764
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,839
And I'm not such a noodle as
to refuse what would pay
765
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,959
such good returns.
766
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,159
A whole new quarter.
767
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,639
As long as no-one
were to obstruct me
768
00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:00,319
in getting a licence for
my casino...inn.
769
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,759
Hotel. Oh, is that what
you're after?
770
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,639
My influence.
771
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,479
Well, I would hope I wouldn't
need it.
772
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,439
As I say, I would hope
that such a venture
773
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,599
would be eloquent of its own merits.
774
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,959
But, certainly,
one word from you,
775
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,759
in the right ear,
776
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,479
would be worth 1000 from
anybody else.
777
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,239
KNOCK ON DOOR
778
00:38:24,240 --> 00:38:25,559
Mr Rawson.
779
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,639
Mrs Rawson.
ANNE MOUTHS
780
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,919
Mother!
781
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,039
Oh, hello.
782
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,039
Mr Rawson.
783
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,039
Christopher, is it true
what Miss Lister tells me,
784
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,719
that you're standing for Parliament?
785
00:38:38,720 --> 00:38:40,239
Oh, you've heard!
786
00:38:40,240 --> 00:38:41,759
Is it wise?
787
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,119
Yes, I've put my name forward
and expect to be adopted
788
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,519
at the next committee meeting.
789
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:46,959
You have too many trades.
790
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,079
Who said that?
791
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:49,599
Me. I said it.
792
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,479
No point in looking
at Miss Lister.
793
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,399
And it's what your father
used to say too.
794
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,959
What a shame you can't stand for
Parliament, Miss Lister.
795
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:02,079
With your superior intellect and
your powers of diplomacy
796
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:05,879
and persuasion, you would've stood
head and shoulders
797
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,639
above anyone else!
798
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,519
Good Lord, look at the time.
799
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,119
She should be running the country.
800
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,439
Yes, what a shame.
801
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,279
Oh, she's not leaving?
802
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:20,279
I was very sorry, Mr Rawson, to
hear about the mindless vandalism
803
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:21,719
at Hope Hall.
804
00:39:21,720 --> 00:39:25,439
Yes, well... And to assure you,
as I told Dr Jubb,
805
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:29,399
that, if you are to be
Tory candidate for the town
806
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,639
and I had influence
over 1000 votes,
807
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,080
you would have every one of them.
808
00:39:38,720 --> 00:39:40,079
Au revoir.
809
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,439
A bientot.
810
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:42,839
Mr Rawson.
811
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,320
Miss Lister.
812
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:50,440
HE EXHALES
813
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,080
Ugh. That colour's never suited you.
814
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,119
"Dearest Freddy...
815
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,599
"It is something new to feel
that I write
816
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,439
"for two sets of eyes

817
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,079
"Now that my mind is more at ease,
818
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,519
"I hope to get into better health.

"Either you or the medicines

00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,719
"And, as you have often said,

00:40:13,720 --> 00:40:16,079

"Come what may,

with my wishes,

"there is one subject left in which
I will never disappoint you.

00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,359
"I will always...

00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:35,600

00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,080
Hmm.
836
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,359
Where's Miss Walker?
837
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:03,599
Hmm?
838
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,999
Oh, she's not well.
839
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,479
Again?
840
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:08,639
ANNE SIGHS
841
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,559
It's this...nonsense with her aunt.
842
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,599
Every time she goes over there,
she says something cruel
843
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:18,239
and unnecessary, and it always
knocks her for six.
844
00:41:18,240 --> 00:41:20,479
Oh, I'm sorry.
845
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,679
"When you speak of
your 'little friend',
846
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,559

00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:32,999
"And tell me, Freddy..."
851
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,439
Is that Mrs Lawton's handwriting?
852
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:36,799
It is, yes.
853
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,039
"Tell me, Freddy..."
Has she got anything fresh?
854
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,919
Well, let's see, shall we?
855
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,799
"Tell me, Freddy, do you see
the York papers?
856

If you'll excuse me,
861
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:06,039
I'm going to take Miss Walker
her letters and some tea.
862
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:11,239
Oh, and Mr Abbott's
due this evening.
863
00:42:11,240 --> 00:42:13,999
As usual. Just to remind you.
864
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:15,520
Just so you know to...
865
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,679
SHE SIGHS
866
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,680
..stay out of the way.
867
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,719
She wants to defer the division
of the estate again.
868
00:42:29,720 --> 00:42:32,199
"Until we can travel
more comfortably."
869
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,359
This is him.
870
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,959
He'll put it off and put it off
until it doesn't happen.
871
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,360
Who's this one from?
872
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,959
Perhaps we should instruct
Mr Gray to write to him
873
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:43,599
rather than her in future,
874
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,960
stop this pretence that it's
her who's being difficult, hm?
875
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:49,800
Ann?
876
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,320
Ann?
877
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,120
What is it?
878
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,359
"Dear Miss Walker. I fear
this may not reach you,
879
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,679
"but if it does I urge you,
under no circumstances,
880
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,639
"to show it to Miss Lister."
881
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,240
Bad luck.
882
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,039
"However much you may believe
this woman to be your friend,
883
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,800
"I tell you plainly she is not."
884
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,119
Do you recognise the hand?
885
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:28,240
No.
886
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:34,439
"Are you really unaware
of the unspeakable reputation
887
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,319
"this woman has?
888
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,599
"I see that she has already cut
you off from your family
889
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,999
"and friends and, though
you may not understand it,
890
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,759
"please believe me when I tell you
891
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,839
"that you are in
the gravest danger."
892
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,199
Ooh-la-la!
893
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,199
"She will beguile you and,
before you know it,
894
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,639
"she will have tricked you
out of all you have,
895
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,799
"your reputation, your wealth,
your peace of mind.
896
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,200
"Ask her to tell you about
Eliza Raine."
897
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,479
"I urge you to get away from her
and Shibden Hall
898
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,000
"as quickly as you can."
899
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,359
"Be assured that you will hear
from me again soon,
900
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,759
"and that I will not be at ease
until I know that you are
901
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,839
"in a place of greater safety.
902
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,000
"I am, madam, a well-wisher."
903
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:30,720
Anne?
904
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,159
Things like this.
905
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,039
All my life.
906
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,840
Who's Eliza Raine?
907
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,319
I'll tell you about...
908
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:46,719
..Eliza Raine.
909
00:44:46,720 --> 00:44:49,039
Is she another Mrs Lawton
or another Tib?
910
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,759
We were at school together
in York, 13-year-olds!
911
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,200
And then...
912
00:44:56,240 --> 00:44:57,920
..when she was older...
913
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,159
..she had problems,
914
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,040
properly, not like...
915
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,159
ANNE SIGHS
916
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:12,320
She's been in an asylum in York
for the last 20-odd years.
917
00:45:13,720 --> 00:45:17,279
And I visit her, occasionally,
for old time's sake,
918
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,080
but she's violent and she...
919
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,639
She spits and swears and
she's attacked me
920
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,120
more than once, and others.
921
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,880
She could never live independently,
the way she is.
922
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,440
So the person who sent this
knows about her?
923
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,919
Eliza used to come and stay
with us in Halifax,
924
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,999
over the summer.
925
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,399
Her parents were in India,
so she couldn't go home.
926
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,959
So it could be anyone in
Halifax that remembers her.
927
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:47,559
She's...
928
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:50,479
She was very striking to look at.
She's half Indian.
929
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,080
Were you in love with her?
930
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:54,799
I loved her, yes.
931
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,000
In love?
932
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,999
This has been sent to cause
division and upset.
933
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,319
Will you let it?
934
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:03,599
Was she in love with you?
935
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,039
Well, we were very young!
936
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,999
And the tawdry implication here
is that she ended up
937
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:09,279
the way she did because of me.
938
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,040
It's just... It's just nonsense.
939
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,120
I did everything I could
to help her.
940
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:24,760
Burn it.
941
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:46,719
Please get up and get dressed,
942
00:46:46,720 --> 00:46:47,999
for my sake,
943
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,719
for your own sake.
944
00:46:49,720 --> 00:46:52,039
We can't give in to these people.
945
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,040
We must be better than them.
946
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,159
BELL RINGS
947
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:58,640
ANNE SIGHS
948
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,440
That'll be the men about the pit.
I...
949
00:47:05,720 --> 00:47:06,960
I've got to go.
950
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,320
SHE EXHALES
951
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:38,239
Robert agrees with
Mr Holt, ma'am.
952
00:47:38,240 --> 00:47:41,040
He thinks you should bottom
Walker pit before you flood Spiggs.
953
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,759
And, as regards another pit
50, 60 yards this way,
954
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,799
I'd say it were a very good thing,
ma'am,
955
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,599
if you're willing to spend t'money.
956
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,439
Here. You dropped your...
957
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,759
Because then you could loose
a whole sweep of coal
958
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,799
lying on the Shibden Hall side
of Pump, and upwards in
959
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,959
a line parallel to the present
old waterhead hold
960
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:02,559
under Cunnery houses.
961
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,440
Where would you sink
this new pit?
962
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,199
Well, if you're putting
the water wheel
963
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,719
down at Tillyholme stile,
964
00:48:09,720 --> 00:48:11,519
I'd say here,
965
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,679
at Pump, where you suggested.
966
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,199
And then if we drove two heads up
from Tillyholme stile,
967
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,559
that's t'idea? Yeah.
Which we could do easily enough
968
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,919
if we made a vent hole
in t'corner of Dolt,
969
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,399
then this pit at Pump,
970
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,839
you'd have it working just as soon
as it were bottomed,
971
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:27,599
and it'd serve as a vent
to Walker pit.
972
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,719
This way, all the coal
above the Wakefield Road
973
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:32,239
and between the two pits could be
pulled at Walker pit,
974
00:48:32,240 --> 00:48:34,439
and all t'coal below Wakefield Road
could be pulled at
975
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:35,479
this new pit at Pump.
976
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,439
And then you'd be left
with a good barrier of coal
977
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,639
all along this side up here. So in
fact you could stop Spiggs colliery
978
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,199
any time you liked after
this second one's sunk,
979
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,999
and let all that face of coal
stand, covered in water,
980
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,079
ready to throw it
on Mr Rawson's works
981
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,439
any time you wanted, which,
if he hadn't have trespassed,
982
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,439
you'd never have been able
to do, so...
983
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,119
It'd be a way of proving
his trespass too.
984
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:56,640
And anyone else's.
985
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,000
MARIAN MOUTHS
986
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,759
How long do they say it'll take
to construct it?
987
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,799
To dig the drifts and sink
the pit, eight months.
988
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:19,599
As to the dam...
989
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:22,319
You'd have to give Carr notice
to quit the Well Royd land
990
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,119
if you're going to turn it
into a dam.
991
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,439
His tenancy's up
in eight months, so...
992
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,399
I've calculated that, for the volume
of water needed to turn
993
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:33,399
an 18-foot-diameter water wheel,
the dam needs to be four-foot deep
994
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,959
across two acres, so with that
and the dam goit
995
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,400
we could be up and running
in 12 months.
996
00:49:42,240 --> 00:49:44,400
Do you know anyone with
a theodolite?
997
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:55,760
Mr Priestley.
998
00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,879
Miss Lister.
999
00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:01,839
Were you at the hall?
1000
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:03,839
Ah, yes, I...
1001
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,319
Yes, I went to see your father.
1002
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:07,759
And your sister.
1003
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,959
And my cousin. But she wasn't in.
1004
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,919
No. She's in Huddersfield,
visiting her cousin Catherine.
1005
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:15,919
Yes.
1006
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:17,639
So you've missed her.
1007
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,959
Yes. Well, then, you've missed her
and you've caught me.
1008
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,639
That probably wasn't the plan
at all, hm?
1009
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:24,840
Plan?
1010
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,279
I was hoping she might like
to make a subscription
1011
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:30,560
to the clergyman's widows fund.
1012
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,439
It's not beyond the realms
of possibility.
1013
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:38,359
Well, then. Well, then.
1014
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,400
You'll have to try again
another time.
1015
00:50:42,720 --> 00:50:43,840
Miss Lister.
1016
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:48,480
Mr Priestley.
1017
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:06,239
ANNE: My dear Mary.
1018
00:51:06,240 --> 00:51:08,559
I can't at the moment turn
to the item from the newspaper
1019
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:12,559
that you refer to, and so I must
send it another time,
1020
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,359
but the announcement was,
in substance,
1021
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,959
"The marriage of Captain Tom Lister,
of Shibden Hall,
1022
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:22,679
"and Miss Ann Walker,
late of Crow Nest."
1023
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,759
On discovery of the hoax,
1024
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,519
a handsome volunteer apology
was sent by the editor of
1025
00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,519
one of the papers,
and here the matter ended,
1026
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:34,079
for nobody was annoyed
and nobody cared about it.
1027
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:35,319
Ma'am?
1028
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:36,600
Yes, thank you.
1029
00:51:50,240 --> 00:51:52,159
Thank you, Rachel.
1030
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:54,039
Thank you, Hemingway.
1031
00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:56,919
We should start packing
for tomorrow.
1032
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,599
I ordered the horses for nine.
1033
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,480
We should be in York by one.
1034
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,479
I'm not sure about this Mr Bradley.
1035
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,720
I'm not convinced his intellect
matches his ambition.
1036
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:10,880
Shall I do the duty?
1037
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,640
I didn't tell you this
because...
1038
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,879
..I don't know.
1039
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:22,599
But when you went to see Catherine
the other day,
1040
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:26,199
and Mr Priestley called,
1041
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:29,319
he was flustered and, I don't know,
1042
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:33,239
I wondered whether it was him
who wrote that letter -
1043
00:52:33,240 --> 00:52:36,359
or her, or both of them -
1044
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,440
and he was calling to see
what effect it'd had.
1045
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,279
I don't care who sent it.
1046
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:47,679
It's irrelevant.
1047
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,560
I don't think we should
mention it again.
1048
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:01,199
I told Catherine about
what Elizabeth had done.
1049
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:02,799
Did she know?
1050
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:03,879
No.
1051
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:05,800
I think she'd have told me
if she did.
1052
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:09,680
We will sort this out.
1053
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:17,079
It just saddens me.
1054
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:18,600
What does?
1055
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,200
Thinking about what it's all for.
1056
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:25,880
And...
1057
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,959
..without children...
1058
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,040
..I'm not sure what it is all for.
1059
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:36,680
And is it not...
1060
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:40,760
Not?
1061
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,200
..God's purpose that we...
1062
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:49,639
..people...
1063
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,040
..have children?
1064
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,559
I just regret that
it will all go to them,
1065
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,839
ultimately, to Sackville.
1066
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,240
I never did before, before this,
but...
1067
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:05,919
..it's just made me dwell on it all.
1068
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,200
And I suppose I had always
imagined that...
1069
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:12,440
..one day...
1070
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:15,400
...I would have..
1071
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,040
..children of my own. That's all.
1072
00:54:21,240 --> 00:54:24,200
You once told me you felt
a kind of repugnance...
1073
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:29,559
..to forming any sort of connection
1074
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:31,479
with the opposite sex.
1075
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:32,719
It's not the same thing.
1076
00:54:32,720 --> 00:54:34,040
Isn't it?
1077
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:40,159
You mean, you'd imagined children
but not marriage?
1078
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,039
To a man.
1079
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,479
I don't know. Yes.
1080
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:45,840
Somehow, I...
1081
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:48,640
..had imagined being...
1082
00:54:50,240 --> 00:54:55,040
..a mother, but not being,
you know, with a man.
1083
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:00,519
So you haven't given up
all thought
1084
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:01,759
of ever having children?
1085
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,239
It's not... It doesn't signify,
does it? I'm with you.
1086
00:55:04,240 --> 00:55:05,839
It does signify.
1087
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:07,919
Because I need to have
the confidence
1088
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:09,959
that this thing between us
is truly settled
1089
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:13,799
and I'm not just keeping you warm
until some man comes along.
1090
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:14,999
SHE SIGHS
1091
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,279
It's much the same as I told Marian
over Mr Abbott -
1092
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,879
you'll not find me any obstacle
to something you have
1093
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,479
very much at heart.
1094
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:22,599
Don't say that.
1095
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:24,879
Because I can be as a meteor
in your life,
1096
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,079
if that's what you'd like,
a meteor that burns
1097
00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:29,919
more brightly than anything
you could ever imagine.
1098
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:31,759
And then is gone.
1099
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,320
Forever.
1100
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:42,679
Things like this.
1101
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:44,039
All my life!
1102
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:45,959
I pretend it gets easier,
but it doesn't.
1103
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,119
Anne... We do things for us.
1104
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:49,639
That's who it's for.
1105
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,879
So that we can have a life
together. WE matter.
1106
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:55,999
Having children isn't the only
reason to strive and do well
1107
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,039
and better oneself and be happy.
1108
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,359
I'm sorry.
1109
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:03,519
It is, I've said it before,
1110
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,639
a great sadness that
we can never have children.
1111
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,599
But if you're not certain
it isn't something
1112
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:11,360
you'll want in the future, then...
1113
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:14,640
..I need to know about that now.
1114
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,959
Because it's something that
I can never give you.
1115
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,199
Just as we can never have a piece
of paper that says
1116
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:24,239
we have any kind of legal union
to bind us,
1117
00:56:24,240 --> 00:56:27,999
neither can we have the bond
a child would give us.
1118
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:29,759
So we have to be certain...
1119
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,799
You're frightening me.
I'm frightening you?
1120
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:34,639
I'm sorry. You have to be certain...
1121
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,679
..before we set off for York,
1122
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,959
before we think any further
about changing our wills,
1123
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:44,519
that this, here, with me,
is what you want.
1124
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:45,999
I want to be with you,
1125
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,279
more than anything in
the whole world.
1126
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,959
You know that. Nevertheless...
1127
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,839
..it is a great sacrifice,
1128
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:57,479
and if you're not sure it's one
you can make,
1129
00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:59,160
well, then...
1130
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:32,480
I'm going to start packing for York.
1131
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,479
# Behind her back
she's Gentleman Jack
1132
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,719
# A Yorkshire lady of renown
1133
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:05,639
# Ever so fine, won't toe the line
1134
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:08,119
# Speak her name, gentlemen frown
1135
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,119
# At Shibden Hall she had them all
1136
00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:12,359
# The fairer sex fell under her spell
1137
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,519
# Dapper and bright
She held them tight
1138
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,679
# Handsome Anne seduced them well
1139
00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:18,559
# Jack-the-lass, Jack-the-lass
1140
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,839
# No-one likes a Jack-the-lass
1141
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:22,999
# The code is cracked
Your bags are packed
1142
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,400
# The knives are out for
Gentleman Jack! #84849
