The lake’s burst its banks but it looks like the Lovells moved up
to the North Meadow in the nick of time.
It was quite a storm, huh?
I didn’t sleep a wink. I couldn’t stop thinking
about Sir Simon. Poor guy looked so distressed, Hiram.
Do you think we should send a gift to apologise for frightening him?
Nice idea honey.
You know, I think we were in the eye of it.
The damage isn’t as bad as I feared.
A shelter in the time of storm
Secure whatever ill betide
A shelter in the time of storm…
How did that happen?
A weary land, a weary land
Oh, Jesus is a rock in a weary land
A shelter in the time of storm
No fears alarm, no foes are right
A shelter in the time of storm
Lady D… D… Deborah.
Delightful sermon this morning, Reverend, although the end dragged.
Please, do try to remember the ten minute rule.
Oh dear. I don’t suppose the insurance…?
Ghost damage comes under exclusion clauses.
Curse his bones.
He’s obviously not best pleased with his new incumbents.
- Sooner they leave the better. - I couldn’t agree more, Elvis.
What on earth can they have done to offend him I wonder?
Morning.
Morning, Reverend.
So how are you finding England’s green and pleasant?
A bit of a culture shock.
I don’t expect you’ll stick around. Don’t you have law studies to resume?
Actually I’ve decided I’m not cut out for law.
So what are you going to do with your life?
You sound like my Mom. You know what Mothers are like?
Hardly, Cecil’s bolted with a bridge player from Monte Carlo.
And ours upped sticks to become a Buddhist Nun.
The last known location was some temple near
Wat Chiang Man, wherever the blazes that is?
Northern Thailand.
Is she coming to the wedding?
I sincerely hope not.
I hesitate to use the words, "wedding of the year",
but the Prince of Wales is the guest of honour.
The last thing I want is a bald mother of the bride in an orange sari ruining photos
because, well, literally everyone who is anyone will be there.
We hope you can come.
Although it will have to be the reception party only as the chapel only seats 300.
Don’t be a numpty, Mops. She can be my plus one.
I wouldn’t want to ruin the seating plan.
It would be a shame if you missed out on the ceremony.
Imagine the chapel…
a bower of freesias to match my bouquet.
The eyes of the congregation on me as I make my entrance.
- The Duke of Stilton your… - Ruddy man this is all I need.
What on earth’s the matter, Bluey? You look like a heart attack in waiting.
Dickie Wales has invited himself to stay on his way to Scotland next month.
- Bad luck. - He’ll drink my best vintages.
And how I’ll entertain him when the shooting season hasn’t even started?
He is rather high maintenance. Can’t you find an excuse?
Hardly as my high maintenance daughter would kill me
seeing as he’s star guest at her wedding.
Ralph seems smitten with the Otis girl.
He’s not the only one smitten. Have you seen the way she makes eyes at Cecil?
If we’re not careful — none of them will make a suitable match.
I say, Bluey…
what do you say we kill two birds with one stone?
Ooh. I did’st underestimate them.
So impressed were they by mine performance
they did’st leave me a tribute.
They seem strange tributes.
"Dear Sir Simon.
It was a pleasure to meet you and apologies if we alarmed you at all.
Please accept these natural remedies,
which we hope you will find helpful for your soothing rest and relaxation.
Sincerely, The Otis family.
P.S. What does PS mean?
Given the importance of sleep to adolescent brain development,
we’d very much appreciate it if you could limit haunting to before 11pm."
Well!
Hiram,
do you think that means he appreciates my gift basket?
At the black moon,
when Chanticleer doth sound twice his merry horn…
then deeds of blood will be wrought,
and murder walk abroad with silent feet.
I’m not sure if appreciate is the word I’d use.
Death threats from a dead man. Way to go.
Did you see how he turned brown when the bath bombs exploded?
- They stuck to him. - So?
Our Ghost isn’t an apparition he’s made of atoms. Solid matter.
That’s an impressive deduction.
Although his molecular makeup must be considerably lighter than ours
in order for him to disperse…
You mean he can’t just disappear.
Mrs. Umney. Do you know who Chanticleer is?
A cursed cockerel.
Legend says that if he crows twice during the midnight hour,
a member of the household will die.
I take it this theory is tried and tested?
The last time was in 1815 when Lord Digby Canterville was struck down aged 29.
How did he die?
It’s said he was frightened to death by the Ghost.
Well, then I don’t think we have anything to worry about.
I suppose they’ll redecorate.
Paint everything the colour of wet cement
and call it New York chic or some such thing.
Never been. Visited the Hamptons a few times.
It’s a bit like Cornwall but without poor people.
Ah, good morning.
I was just saying how much I was looking forward
to seeing what you’re going to do with the decor.
Well, I’ll ask Mrs. Umney to fetch us some tea.
Oh, there’s no need. I’ll get straight to the point.
Now the Chase is reoccupied,
Bluey thought it might be a good idea to revive a local tradition.
Didn’t you, Bluey?
The Stilton Canterville cricket match.
Established in 1680 by way of lowering the local murder rate.
We fought on opposite sides in the civil war.
A lot of old scores. Dead bodies piling up everywhere.
Oh, ha ha.
So the families decided to vent their aggression on the playing field.
Captaining their tenants in an annual cricket match.
Then over the years it became a highlight of the social calendar.
Until the family moved out.
What does this involve?
Oh, nothing onerous.
Captain a team from the village and lay on match refreshments.
Basically a fun day out for the locals and their families.
Oh, we’ll do it.
Ah, splendid.
It will be huge fun.
- Morning. - Morning.
- Well, thank you for coming… - Morning.
Bye.
We’ve been wanting to get to know the locals better.
Hiram, is now a good time to point out you know absolutely nothing about cricket?
It can’t be that different from baseball and the boys can join in.
I guess I just can’t help feeling that woman is up to something.
You want to find the lost treasure of the Cantervilles?
So, what makes you think you’ll succeed
when so many others before you have failed?
Maybe they didn’t ask the right questions to the right people?
Ask your questions.
Well, the Gypsies built Canterville Chase. So they must have built the priest hole?
They never finished building it.
They had a falling out with Lord Henry and were banished from Canterville soil.
Why doesn’t the ghost leave?
Spirits can’t roam.
They need to be within reach of their earthly bones to recharge their energy.
Oh, like a vampire’s coffin?
Like a battery.
He died unshriven.
Denied divine mercy, and so cursed to limbo,
he’s trapped inside the walls of his own house.
Just one more thing, ma’am, do you know what a black moon is?
Rare nights when the sky is completely black
and spirits are at their most powerful.
Perhaps the repertoire could do with updating.
What dost thine irksome like know oft Sophoclean arts?
How I had’st the misfortunance to
culminate with a gobbetous vermin as mine only critic…
I didn’t apply for the job.
I left a wife, 200 children and a newly built cesspit for this.
Well, rapacious rodent, thou should’st not have tried to eat me.
I didn’t know your flesh was cursed…
You didn’t even taste nice.
Ohhh, I do glean un soupçon de schadenfreude
thy last meal on’t earth was such a crushing disappointment.
Ahh, only nine moons to go
and one of them will’t perish.
Now what?
He’s hardly the most reliable poultry.
My cursed cockalorum will’t not fail me.
They shall’t rue the night for their vituperation
and my noble Chanticleer will’t be mine champion.
Canterville Chase.
One moment. Buckingham Palace, Madam.
Lucretia Otis.
Commander Tommy Tiverton.
Personal private secretary to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales.
Oh, I’m afraid you must have the wrong number.
Mrs. Hiram Otis?
- Yes. - Excellent.
And may I start by extending his Royal Highness’ thanks for hosting.
So, if we can talk lists of requirements and security arrangements.
And there’ll probably be a small press presence, but we’ll deal with that.
"The" Prince Richard?
Yes, Hiram. The heir to the British throne.
Buckingham Palace are keen to firm up the details of the itinerary
given that he is President of the MCC
and looking forward to a "stonking match".
I guess it will be one to tell the grandchildren?
How the English gave the Americans a public whupping?
You know, I knew that woman was up to something.
This isn’t a friendly for the locals.
This is the social event of the year and we’re the entertainment.
Please tell me we have a team?
Hi there.
Morning.
Morning.
- Hiram Otis. I’ve recently moved into… - I know who you are.
Wonderful store. At least you get wi-fi in the village.
We don’t anymore. The mast blew down the other night.
Oh, it was quite a storm, huh?
Hasn’t been a storm like that in 25 years.
Hmm.
I don’t know if you’ve heard but we’re reviving the…
Oh, it looks like you’ve heard.
In that case I’m some players short of a cricket team?
Is there some place I could put a signup sheet?
Try the church notice board.
Church notice board… thank you for your help.
Ok, what do we know?
One. The Ghost must return to his bones to recharge.
And two he’s appearing at the next black moon.
Next Friday.
Exactly. So why don’t we follow him back to his priest hole?
How can we follow someone who can vanish through walls?
Because he can’t go through solid objects.
He’s made of atoms. He escapes through cracks in the house.
So?
So… we can track and trace him.
Paintball Gun, fast release.
Lovely day.
Ah, it’s nice to see a friendly face.
I’m not exactly top of the polls round here.
It’s the storm. They took quite a battering.
Well, they can hardly blame an American for the British climate.
Actually, they blame the Ghost. They only blame you by association.
That’s funny you mentioned a ghost.
There’s nothing funny about Sir Simon.
He’s a particularly malevolent spirit.
Been causing localised storms for centuries.
Gather you’d reinstated the match.
Hey, I don’t suppose any Cantervilles are able to volunteer?
Cecil’s playing for the Stilton team
under pain of death from Moppy and I’m booked in for a knee replacement.
But let me know if you need any help on the coaching side?
Hey, I may hold you to that.
So how about we transfer our baseball skills to the cricket pitch?
Frank used to be a champion little league pitcher
before the… "incident" and Theo…
Has octopus hands and two left feet. We’d never win.
It’s not about winning. It’s about playing the game.
- What’s in it for us? - Honour and glory, Theodore.
What about Ginny?
I can’t even play baseball. I’ll be first aider.
Oh, good, well since you’ve got some time on your hands,
look, I got you these brochures.
Oxford and Cambridge do some excellent law conversion courses.
Actually I was thinking I could help Dad with his genealogy project.
Oh, I would like that very much.
- Great then I’ll get on it tomorrow. - You’ll need to go to Featherstonehaugh.
The Cantervilles took the archives with them when they moved out.
Straight up I think we may have inadvertently offended him.
I’m guilty myself.
Forty years ago on my arrival as a young Curate
I attempted an exorcism on Sir Simon.
He found my delivery so offensive
that he… he… he… stuck skeletal fingers down my throat and…
strangled my Adam’s apple.
Oh my.
Then he whipped up a storm which brought the belfry down.
It took three years to gain the trust of the village after that
and f… five years of speech therapy before I could deliver a sermon.
Hmm.
Well, the reason I’m here, may I introduce Mr. Django Lovell. Roofing specialist.
Reverend.
There’s been so much storm damage over the years it’s like an over darned sock.
The economic long term solution is to replace the entire roof.
You’re preaching to the converted
but there are only so many bring and buy sales a parish can hold.
Well, it was caused by my sitting tenant so that’d be on me.
I’m… I’m overwhelmed.
The timing couldn’t be better
as the future Supreme Governor of the Church of England
is doing a drive by on his way to the match.
I see you’ve put a signup sheet on the noticeboard.
Hmm, let’s just say it hasn’t exactly been a stampede.
I’m sure once news of your largesse gets out…
I’d rather it didn’t, if you don’t mind.
As my Grandfather always said.
"It ‘ain't charity when you help yourself."
Good afternoon. Lord Canterville said you’d be expecting me.
Follow me, Miss.
Hello there…
My Dad’s researching his family tree
and your Dad kindly gave him access to the estate records.
Which is why I’m here. On behalf of my father… for purposes of research.
Thanks, Danby. I’ve got this. Follow me.
Hey, Guys. What’s up?
Hey, Dad, can we er, borrow some stuff?
Sure. Help yourselves.
What’s that?
That’s a cytronic stain remover.
It’s a vacuum cleaner for stains.
That’s cyclone technology mixed with cybertronics.
Way to go, Theo.
Yeh, it’s quite revolutionary. At least it will be if I can get it work…
Are you a keen historian?
Not really. I’m just trying to annoy my mother.
It’s my Dad who’s obsessed by the past. He’s really quite English in that respect.
There’s a great comfort in being able to trace one’s lineage.
That depends on the lineage.
Have you a date of birth for Simeon Otis?
1575.
Best start with the parish registers then.
Anyone who was born married or died on the estate will be in there.
These are all the Canterville estate records.
I may be here some time.
Right, well, I’ll be off.
Only six moons to go…
We’re gathered here to learn the noble art of cricket
and to convert our existing skills into an efficient…
into, er, an efficient cricket team.
Each team will bowl 120 balls.
The team with the most runs wins. Any questions?
Aren’t there supposed to be 11 players?
Oh, we’re still waiting on reinforcements.
Meanwhile we need to learn the rules
so we’ve engaged the services of a coach AKA Lord Canterville.
Oh, coach is fine.
Coach Canterville. Has quite a ring to it…
So I’m guessing it’s pretty similar to baseball.
Essentially yes.
With some tactical differences on the fielding side.
Here’s the field, er, starting with silly mid off,
silly point, gully, slips,
leg slip, short leg and silly mid on, right.
Then moving outwards we have…
square leg, midwicket, and we have deep square and deep mid wicket.
Oh and er, finally…
Long off, straight hit, long on — cow corner.
So um, that’s all clear?
Good morning, Lady D, D, D, Deborah.
Good morning. I see you’ve found a benefactor.
An extremely generous, anonymous benefactor,
who’s funding the complete replacement of the roof.
The whole shebang?
Who on earth could possibly afford to…
He made me swear to secrecy.
Hiram Otis?
Good deeds do have a way of getting out…
but not from me, er, us.
Neither of us want to be guilty of betraying a confidence.
Trust me. They won’t hear it from me.
Thought you may be in need of a cuppa.
What is it with the English and tea?
It isn’t just a beverage.
For we English no six words can convey such multitude of meaning as,
"shall I put the kettle on?"
It’s a ritual and a metaphor.
For welcome, celebration,
condolence… and apology.
I could do with some of its superpowers.
I’m sorry.
Jeremiah and Sarah Otis had nine children
born between 1568-1579
but none of them named Simeon.
And the only birth recorded in 1575 was a girl,
Hebizibah Otis born July 1575.
- Four months before Simeon which… - Is biologically impossible.
Well, you spend your whole life
thinking you’re someone only to find out perhaps you’re not.
What about Simeon’s sketchbooks?
Proof he was born and raised in Canterville.
Yeah, maybe he’s a relative? A nephew perhaps?
Or a criminal fleeing the country under a false identity.
Nice, Frank.
There are shelves of estate records.
There must be mention of him somewhere and if there is I’ll find him.
Thanks, Ginny.
- How are the match entertainments? - Well, not very entertaining.
According to Mrs. Umney it’s just tea and sandwiches.
Although she has offered her Scout a cappella choir
to sing the national anthem.
How’s the cricket team coming together?
Are you alright?
Pardon me for saying but you don’t look well.
Thine horrid, rude, vulgar and dishonest family is to blame.
A tad hypocritical when making death threats is hardly polite.
Or trying to terrorise people.
‘Tis the reason for my existence.
To lament by day and haunteth by night.
Then, forgive me for asking the obvious question, but why don’t you just leave?
Because of this…
- I don’t know what it means. - I am cursed.
I canst not weep for my sins for I have no tears,
nor plead for my soul because I have no faith.
Thus I am to await the arrival of a golden child,
who shall’t plead my case before the Angel of Death,
ant should’st he show mercy I will pass to the Garden of Rest.
Then the House of Life and the House of Death shall reunite,
and peace shall come to Canterville.
And, until then?
I am trapped in perpetual unrest.
But that’s so, so unjust.
- Ginny, who are you talking to? - Er, no one.
Catch!
It’s ok, let’s go again.
Hold the bat down to the ground and bring it up after the bowler bowls.
Hey, Hiram. So on a humiliation scale of one to ten what is our current ranking?
- Four. - Really?
Maybe five.
- Nice catch. - Sorry.
Nine!
He wants an exhibition match.
More like the battle of Quebec all over again.
No ball!
Remember we won the War of Independence.
If they want entertainment we’ll give them some. American style.
- Oh, good morning, Elvis. - Morning.
Goodness this is exciting. Quite the mystery.
Although one can’t help but wonder at the coincidence…
Coincidence?
Well, that this act of munificence should happen right
before Prince Richard’s visit.
Just between us
I believe he is very well known for his anonymous charitable gestures.
Anyway, I expect we’ll never find out. Morning.
Morning.
It’s a fine nocturne
my proud young struttercomb.
Now!
Paint ball guns! What, inside?
Hiram! They have paint ball guns? You could have taken someone’s eye out!
- What on earth were you doing? - Tormenting the ghost.
- Can’t you be nice? - Where did the paint go?
It stuck to the ghost.
It’s, it’s like, um, dye packs that they use in bank robberies.
What kind of paint?
Powder mixed with ultraviolet so that we can track him back to the Priest hole.
- Atta boy! You see now that is a very… - Hiram!
Hm, right, yeah.
Time to call it a night. Go to bed.
Are you asleep?
Let’s go.
We need to go down.
Perdition seize this pussumous prince of poultry.
I did mention he was unreliable.
Yeah… eh?
I heard talking. Is this your pet?
Hello. Aren’t you sweet?
Is she a simpleton?
Very possibly.
‘Tis my familiar, Cesspitt.
I canst assure you he is aught but confection.
For four hundred years I have endured his pratter gabble.
It feels like a thousand.
I thank thee not to interrupt my conversement.
Is he "talking" to you?
For my sins he rarely desists.
A vexatious vermin bound to me in limbo.
Bound? As in a legal contract?
Why ist a female speaking of jurisprudence?
I studied law for a while.
Women are not permitted to study the law.
Times have moved on. Women can do everything men do now.
And their menfolk suffer it?
Has it occurred "she" could be "the one."
Jabbernowl.
I await a golden girl not a pitch haired spinster past her prime.
I’m 22!
As I said.
The meaning is open to interpretation?
Or must we wait till your bones crumble in the dust?
I suppose aught is preferable to thy noxious chittering.
Madam.
Would’st thy do thyself the honour to be mine advocate?
Convince the Angel of Death to show you mercy?
What if I fail?
I am sentenced to the garden of unrest.
Whence there is no love or reconciliation.
I can’t…
I already destroyed a life. I won’t risk destroying your death.
What are you doing?
Tracking the Ghost.
He went this way.
Oh, can’t you leave the poor man alone?
- What’s under here? - Ha! Gotcha!
We found this in the library.
Er, this can’t be right.
I mean, look, here’s the tapestry room
and there’s nothing underneath. It’s solid ground.
If there is a Priest hole underneath
they’re hardly likely to put it on a plan and stick it in the library.
This isn’t the master plan. But the builders must have had one.
Peter Lovell’s box.
He was master builder of the Chase. His original plans should be in there.
Do you think we could have a look at them?
Any luck with the elusive Simeon?
None so far.
But I found a mention of his alleged father Jeremiah.
Here are their Canterville assize records.
4th December 1575. Jeremiah Otis fined one shilling for poaching.
I wouldn’t advertise the fact you are descended
from criminal ancestry if I were you.
Cecil. Your fiancée is here.
Right. Thanks. I’ll er…
I should be going too. Thank you for having me, Lady Deborah.
I’ll see you out.
Give my regards to your parents.
Everyone is really looking forward to the cricket tomorrow.
It promises to be so entertaining.
Is something the matter?
She seems strangely familiar.
Not strange at all. There’s a portrait of her at Canterville.
She was Lady Eleanor Featherstonehaugh before her marriage to Sir Simon.
The murdered wife.
Died 1576.
Isn’t that a year after Sir Simon was supposed to have murdered her?
So says the legend.
The truth is far more mundane.
Brain dropsy induced by melancholia, according to the records of the time.
Yet another Featherstonehaugh woman who made the mistake
of marrying a Canterville.
In a deviation from today’s gospel
and in honour of this splendid new roof
I give you the parable of the Good Samaritan.
"A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves…"
Imagine the man attacked by robbers was a… building.
Like a church attacked by the forces of nature.
And this Samaritan tended its wounds and made reimbursement…
Anonymously and without seeking thanks.
God bless Prince Richard.
And this man…
shunned by the community.
Not a "princely" man — a Priest or Levite.
But a foreigner. An outsider.
Then ask yourself this. Which of these three do you think was the neighbour?
I say unto you it was the good A… Am… Amer…
Samaritan. The good Samaritan.
And now we will sing hymn number 133.
No not there, there!
Mrs. Otis. Commander Tiverton. Good to meet you.
Good to meet you. Sorry, but what is all this?
Yes, the powers that be felt it was worthy of coverage
due to the "special relationship."
Hands across the pond and all that.
Excuse me.
Good afternoon, Sir.
Well yes, as fortune fares she’s right here.
It’s the American Ambassador. Just wants to wish you luck.
Oh, ok.
Lucretia Otis…
Thank you. Yeah, we’ll do our best to fly the flag…
We will. Goodbye.
Ok, so it looks like it’s just us.
I might have a gammy knee but I should be able to hit a couple of balls.
It’s only me I’m afraid. I tried to garner support
but subtext is not really their strong point.
Thank you, Reverend. Ok, so, we’re 8 now
that’s 9.09% better than 7.
We are still three players short. We’ll never win.
This isn’t about winning…
this isn’t even about playing the game.
It’s about losing with as much dignity as possible.
Oh, Debo. Thank heaven.
- How are you, Caro? - Livid.
- Who can blame you? - Oh, Bluey, old chap…
I’ve been looking forward to this…
- Hello. - …let me out for the day…
Your hostess. Mrs. Lucretia Otis from Boston USA.
Is this, er, how you play cricket over there?
Well, in the spirit of detente we decided to add
an American flavour to the festivities.
- Oh, St John. - Your Royal Highness.
Cecil. Deborah Canterville’s grandson.
Cecil. Good to see you.
Not sure about the opposition. Is that it?
Appears to be, Your Highness.
Have they forgotten the words?
With freedom’s holy light
To sing with heart and voice
Great God our King
Very good!
Here we go, Canterville.
Good luck, chaps.
Right. Let’s see what they’re made of.
Oh, how marvellous. Which one’s which?
Go, Canterville!
- Come on! - Go, Cantervilles.
- Pitch it up. - Concentrate.
Good luck, dad.
Go on.
Nice throw, dad.
Never mind, Hiram, off you go.
Catch it, come on.
Catch it!
Here we go, Canterville, and again.
Do you like cricket?
Until a few weeks ago I knew nothing about it.
But since then I’ve grown to genuinely detest it.
Oh, snap.
I had my day all planned — catching up on this week’s
"Cash in the Attic."
I should never have let my husband talk me into this.
I know the feeling.
Got this.
Run, Charity, Run.
- Catch it. - Well played.
Ok, Canterville. Heads up.
- Poor dad. - I missed that, sorry.
Oh, hopeless. They don’t have the numbers to cope.
I say, it’s quite fun really. Which one’s which?
Cecil, yes, please, we certainly need you…
Catch it.
What’s happening, Tommy?
It seems young Cecil’s decided to even up the teams, Ma’am.
Very sporting. Top chap you’ve got there.
Yay, Cecil, yay.
Stupid boy.
- Would you like some popcorn? - Why?
It’s traditional at American sporting events.
I find it helps with the boredom.
Cecil, get in close. Forward short leg.
- Good call. - Yeh.
Right in his eyeline, put him off.
Right, here we go, Canterville — come on! Pitch it right up.
- Right in his eyeline, put him off. - Come on then.
Here we go, Canterville.
- You’ve got this - Come on.
- Oh, no. - Oh, that’s going to hurt a bit isn’t it.
Moppy!
Shouldn’t someone do something?
Yo, how are you?
- I’m ok. - Sure?
Are you all right?
Are you all right?
I’m fine. Good to go.
Oh, he’s good to go! He’s good to go!
Dad?
You’re going nowhere. You did us proud,
but your match is over. Captain’s orders.
- What’s happening, Tommy? - We’re halfway through the match, Ma’am.
The Cantervilles are batting next, I don’t fancy their chances.
Thank you, Tommy.
I hope you didn’t give up the law to go into medicine.
Funny.
Why did you give it up? The real reason?
I wanted to make a difference.
Turns out I did only not for the better.
I was interning for a non profit preparing for a big appellate case.
Can I have that in British?
A charity investigating miscarriages of justice.
Kayla was an eighteen year old accused of killing her stepfather.
It was clear self defence
but the prosecution pressed for first degree murder
and it wasn’t looking good.
Until I found an unused legal precedent.
So what happened?
I made a mistake with the evidence.
It was minor
but enough to get the whole argument declared inadmissible
and threw into doubt the line of defence.
Kayla was found guilty and sentenced to life without parole.
18 years old and she’ll spend the rest of her life in prison because of me.
You can’t let one mistake destroy your future.
You sound like my mother.
At least she didn’t bolt when you were in nappies.
I’m sorry, that was super tactless…
It’s ok.
I barely remember her.
Except she smelt of freesias.
I’ve always hated the smell of freesias…
What do you want out of life?
I don’t want my epitaph to read…
"Here lies Cecil Canterville, born with a silver spoon in his mouth."
I want to change the way
Featherstonehaugh’s been run for centuries.
Green agriculture.
Renewable energy sources.
Permaculture. Aquaponics and hydroponics.
Crop rotation and polycultures. Sorry…
I sound a right bore.
What’s next for you?
That’s the million dollar question.
Feeling better?
Remember we’re three players short so make every ball count.
Hiram and Django in first
followed by me then Reverend Dampier,
Frank, Patience, Theo and Charity, all right?
Go On!
Canterville, Canterville!
Good luck, dad.
- Good try, dad. - Never mind, Hiram, unlucky.
Good luck, Mr. Lovell.
Wish I understood the rules more, Tommy.
Canterville need 91 runs with their best batsman injured, Ma’am.
- Thank you, Tommy. - It’s hardly much of a contest.
It is rather embarrassing.
- Got this. - Come on.
Come on.
They’re on the brink of a batting collapse.
It’s all over before it’s started.
Not quite.
Sorry we’re late. It took me a while to round everyone up.
Oh, God bless you, Elvis.
Your arrival couldn’t be more timely as I was just going in…
Here we go, Canterville.
Got this.
Come on.
What’s happening, Tommy?
- That’s the village cavalry out… - Oh, Bravo.
… it’s down to the last three batsmen now.
- They went out fighting. - Come on, boys.
Got this.
Oh, dear, poor chap has run his brother out.
- Sorry. - Yeah, right. Octopus hands…
It’s down to Charity and Theo now,
6 balls remaining and they need 7 runs to win the match.
- Well, that sounds achievable. - Oh, I wouldn’t get your hopes up.
The last two are usually last for a reason.
This came in at the post office.
Special delivery. It looked important so er…
Hmm. Thank you.
Reminds me of the Ashes in 1981.
Last ball, Ma’am, and Canterville need to hit a 4.
It’s actually rather thrilling!
He’s done it.
Bravo.
Jolly well played…
That was amazing.
You guys were great.
You’ve more than done your bit, Caro, I’m sure you don’t need to stay.
Well, Bluey can phone ahead and tell his cook to have something waiting.
Not ruddy likely. Looks like the party’s just getting started.
I used to think maybe you loved me now, baby, I’m sure…
And I just can’t wait till the day when you knock on my door…
Now every time I go for the mail box gotta hold myself down
Оh, bravo.
And I just can’t wait till you write me you’re coming around
I’m walking on sunshine…
Woah, I’m walking on sunshine…
Woah, I’m walking on sunshine, woah
It’s starting to feel good! Ooh, yeah, it’s starting to feel good!
It’s starting to feel good!
Bravo, Mrs. Otis, bravo.
I don’t want you back for a weekend or back for a day…
Сos baby I just want you back and I want you to stay…
I’m walking on sunshine… Woah
I’m walking on sunshine… Woah
I’m walking on sunshine… Woah
It’s starting to feel good Oh yeah, it’s starting to feel good
