Original subtitles

It was a suffragette, never thought to fail

Nanna was a suffragette, spent the night in jail

Singing boats for women, it was just a beginning

You haven't seen anything yet

Oh, Nanna was a suffragette

The polling station looks ship-shaped and suffragette free to me, Frank

As I said, John, if we could just get on

Only I've had orders from above to be especially vigilant

After last night's attack

Attack

As the Liberal candidate had his allotment dug up

Shocking

A whole plot of sprouts and 12 winter camojis destroyed

And for what, Frank? For what?

Oh, the humanity

We know it was the suffragettes because they carved votes for women into a prize marrow

I suppose it was that Bambry Free Suffragette Army

And for their splinter group, the Young Suffrage Army

Who are now calling themselves the Bambry Young Hot Bloods

After their split from the Bambry New Hot Bloods

Who've reformed as the Bambry Free Young Hoties

Not to be confused with the Bambry Bloody Hot Suffrage Squad

Or the Bambry Blood Transfusion Society

We are awash with suffragism

It's all the rage these days

Well, any sign of Bruhaha, just send the word

I shall be patrolling the vicinity

Yes, yes, well, too do

May I emerge now?

Yes, sorry, all clear, Mrs. Umman

Took all the will in the world not to say hello

Such dear old friends, Officer Thacker and I

I'm sure he would have been delighted to see me

Well, best he didn't

You're really not supposed to be here

Yes, we promise not to cause any trouble, Frank

Thank you

Oh, your booze looks wonderful

Justink, each man who swishes through these curtains

Holds in his hand a paper piece of representative democracy

That could be you one day, Mrs. Umman

If your polite request is ever heard

Do you think?

Good day

I'm a woman, I've come to vote

This way, please, madam

Oh, madam, this

Shoes are for

Uh, no, you...

No

Come through

Oh, what a splendid job you've done in here, Frank

I brought my easy chair

So the electors could sit and mull their options

I do all my best thinking in that chair

May I?

Lasticated string to secure the pencil

Whilst allowing for a large circle of movement

May I again?

Oh, yes

Oh, yes

It's been too long

I've stretched the limits of democracy, Frank

No, bother

I will elect a new elastic

Oh, clearly, but this is not good

That's where you would mark your ballot paper

Yes, I have weighed up my options

And now I perform my duty as an enfranchised citizen

What a responsibility

No wonder my husband never vote

Does he know it?

No, a man of ozbert's delicate sensibilities

Is easily overwrought by a simple decision-making here

Barely leaves the house since I've bought him an alternative hat

Well, when you're done filling in your ballot

This way, please

Here's the box where you put it in

And then we count up all the ballots

And the party you didn't vote for wins

Oh, oh, oh, I see you

And very good

Very good, Frank

So who will you be voting for not to get in?

Oh, I haven't really decided

For me, it comes down to four of the 12 parties

Liberal, independent liberal, independent labor

And independent, independent

Who would you be voting for if you could?

Oh, well, I'm glad you asked, Frank

Because I have given the matter much

Well, look at the time

Are we wanting to open the doors

And you'll be wanting to start your piecemeal protest?

Peaceful, protest

And we shall discuss electorate matters later

I shall look forward to that

Have you made us something delicious, Gwen?

I'm not at liberty to say

Until I am

438

439

500

That's lovely counter, Eva

Got to do a thousand of them

A thousand of numbers?

No!

Plant expand your rhythmic

You do them to help the baby arrive

I'm so fed up of looking like a pudding

The night Helen arrived was wonderful

It was during the carnival in Venice

The Italians love babies

So I left her with the gondrelia

And went to a mass ball

Mommy said my bath was painful and difficult

Like me

Mother said I came out with a full head of hair

And a big smile on my face

Which turned out to be trapped wind

I'm so sorry

Good day fellow protestists

Good day Tom

Oh!

Don't Margaret, Thomas has made another one of his things

Slindy, does it sound sort of algorithmic calculator?

Yes, I am calling it the concentric

Votational Predictograph

With which I intend to monitor the progress of the election

Oh wonderful Thomas, how does it work?

Yes, well see here

On this outer circle one enters the number of voters

These in a queels then chart the indicators of political leaning

Such as hat, brogues, cane, pipe, satchel, monocle, quippet, limp,

cuffs, beard, teeth, etc

Let us imagine 12 men enter the polling booth

10 are wearing a top hat, three smoke a churout

And one has large mutton chops

Then this wheel rotates to predict the most likely outcome

Which in this case

The independent smoking mutton-shop party

Ah no no no no, the result is revealed here behind the flap

Tories

I hope one day that there should be an entire circle dedicated to the lady voter

With indicators such as parasol, perfume, hair up, hair down

Travis?

Imagine that

Isn't it maddening to be so excluded from everything?

Margaret, what daring action should we take today to make our demands be heard?

Will we booby trap the booth to blow up when a man goes in?

Oh

Or climb on the roof and throw bangers at the voters

We can bring Parliament to its knees

Well, what's happening?

Margaret has a staggering plan

First we are to set our banner

On the table then fan out the pamphlets

And as the voters arrive we will

Likely request them to spoil their bats

Boring

That's it

We're going to fan pamphlets and flirt with men

When can I start?

I know it's not very daring but we really shouldn't be here and I did promise Frank

Are we telling them yet, Margaret?

Yes, you are, we can't just break something

Women's violence ever really solved anything, Emily

Well, Roger Erkut was on choking to death on a radish

And I saved his life by whacking him on the back with a plank

It's very interesting

Extenuating circumstances but we intend to engage in action that is both peaceful and effective

Such as?

Well, see here in my pamphlet

A suffrage guide to passive aggression

101 suggestions for expressing aggression passively

We'll find it rather powerful

Smoke of pipe indoors

Go to university

Knit a picket

Shout, sternly through a letterbox

Cut a hedge into a shocking shape

That one's rather extreme

I suppose I could smoke pipe indoors and

I do rather love to shout

May I

You may

Those slow in!

Raveo and Miss Emily

So tripe into an important curtain

Leave a party without saying goodbye

Fill a shoe with butter

What a load of old cobblers

Oh sorry, did I say that out loud?

I don't know what's come over me today

Is as if everyone and everything is so very irritating

Especially you Margaret

I think it's the way you wear your glasses

and you fuss around without ever actually doing anything

Whenever mother gets a cob on my mesmeriser

I learned it from a gypsy

You can make a chicken go droopy

just by lying it down and drawing a line in chalk

And how do you mesmerize your mother?

I lie her down

I lie her down

I lie her lying in chalk

I say her eat

Ladies, I'm pleased to announce the polling station is now officially open

Oh, prepared to win over the hearts and minds of the electorate

Rude, that's on please

Yeah, good

Don't we look fine?

We look like third-priced ponies in a Jim Carner

Oh no, we've done it again, haven't I?

Normally if I'm feeling a little peeve-ish

or I just take it out on Gwen because she doesn't mind

No, I don't mind

But today is as if I only hate you

I don't mind

Oh quick, someone's coming down the pamperies

I'm here, I'm here

It's a chiller that Helen

Good day Helen, have you come to support the calls?

Absolutely not

We have come to vote

Lawrence is just parking the motor

What ineffectual effort are you wasting yourselves on today?

We hope with reason and badenage to persuade the voters

to support our cause and spoil their balance

Reason and badenage?

Yes, when a voter enters we shall say good day sir

How are you?

That's the dad and arch

We are the-

No

Sorry

No

Oh I say you're being a voter

Yes I am

Persuade me

Oh, uh yeah, a practice round good

Um well then

Hello

My tight

Hello

Interesting you say no

Do you-

No

When you say no, perhaps what you mean to say

is a no

Would you like a scum?

Yes

It is having a cake sale

Ah no, we are

Do you wasting their breath?

Will you support our cause?

No

Let's vote shall we?

Mr. Lawrence Butte industrialist

Ah, Mr. Butte

Sir, it is a pleasure to-

I am a friend of-

Miss Emily is-

No

In you go Lawrence

Just put a tick by the liberal independence

All right you all

Oh, if you pop now

I'm sure you have to be important somewhere

Would you like a scum, Mr. Butte?

No thank you

He's watching his girth

Goodbye Lawrence

It is

Whoa

Oh

Alan you've been sabotaged

Then their suffrage scones load even so powder

Gruff in your mouth when you refuse to spoil your ballot

I'm voting

Oh, mummy is it too hideous

Don't be cross-helling

We're testing a recipe I invented

for a section in my pamphlet on weapons of mild discomfort

But now you have something else in your pamphlet

I trust Frank that you do not intend to contravene electoral rules

By allowing this thin end of the insurgent wedge

To lodge itself in the heart of our election

I'm sure you ladies don't mean any harm

I can turn a blind eye

Can you indeed? Show me the rule book

As I thought

It is the duty of the presiding officer

That's you Frank

Carefully to exclude all persons

Other than his clocks and the necessary constables

Nothing about a troop of hooting lady clowns

Which means they cannot be here

Who reads the rules really?

I do

And I abide by them

And unless you wish to be stripped of your position

I suggest you too abide

Who died and made you queen of all the killjoys

Not you, alas mother

We don't want Frank to get into trouble

We really should leave

Come on ladies

Help! Help!

You and you

There's a man exposing himself in the church, y'all

Oh

I should go

Yeah, go

Thomas will you assist me please?

Gladly

They only went and fell for it

We made it up

You were thinking

How can we get rid of grandad and the other one?

How can we get rid of these men

And get armed with our votes for women?

Well, now we have no need to thank me

Thank you me

I know you are

Yes, we are the B-I-C-C

P-R-S-S

The scams and the mourning is the world gone mad

Oh don't touch the booby trapped

Glyn? Is that Glyn?

It's Glyn everyone!

Glyn! Glyn

That's what he says

Look at you

Glyn and I are best friends

Always in my shop

She is, come here

Betty works in the sweet shop

I've been in once or twice

I've been away

Got sent down for a suffragette

Ooh, chop the blueberry muffins

Of a statue of Eders

Me, my idea

How is the Bambree Free Suffragette Tommy?

I love the Bambree Free Suffragette Tommy

They're mad, but the suffragette ruins of all time

Yeah

I left them when they stopped inviting me

They splintered off to form a splinter

And that splinter splinter

And now it's just me

Lonesplinter

Gobstopper

Ooh, no

You're a bit of a lemon sherbet

Sarahface

Guess what I am

Guess, guess, guess

An idiot

Sorry

I'm the new member of the B-I-C-C-P-R-A-W-N-S

Actually, Betty, we were just leaving

No, we're not

Yes, yes, we were

I'm afraid we are not allowed in the hall

During the uh, boat

Candy

Coldfoot Rock

Padlock and Chain

No

What's that for, Betty?

She's looking as in

Do something Margaret

Oh, yes, uh

Sorry Betty

I'm afraid I'm

And I have to ask you to

Boom, stop that

Well done Margaret

Woo

For your way through

That little foundry

What else do you think you're doing?

Oh, they invited her

Unlock this padlock at once

What if I don't

I shall have to insist

Go on, Mum

I insist you unlock this padlock at once

No

I'm going to call the police

Go on, Mum

You leave me no choice

Police

Yes, well, I think they will be here very soon now

What's in here?

The elephant, Mum

I'm going in

Oh, plush

This is all your fault, Margaret

Get her out, Margaret

We'll get us out

Get her out

She's awfully like my old geography teacher

The one who wore a bloom is on the outside

Do you remember, Mummy?

They made her better with electricity

I'm sure it's a simple

Misunderstanding

Of your making, Margaret

We shall all wait in the kitchen

While you retrieve the key

I

Yes, I

Oh no, no, Betty won't listen, Margaret

I once went into her shop for a bag of homburgs

And came out with a photograph of King George

Nevertheless, this is Margaret's mess

And she must clear it up

Go ahead

Betty

Betty

Betty

Marjorie

Margaret

I'm glad I had that Nat Marjorie

I think that's been one of the problems

Not enough naps

Or too many

I dreamt we were together in a field

All of us

The B-I-C-C-P

W-W-W-

The R-W-S

All of us

The gang

In our rosettes

Well, I haven't got a rosette

Yeah

But in the dream I had one

We all did

You know that happens in a dream

When you've got something you haven't

But you are in the dream, you know

Yes, Betty

I thought you'd know

Not many people know but you do

I think that's because you were touch-spat-al

Oh, thank you

In a good way though, in a good way

Like one of those people who writes less

And then crosses things up very neatly

Things like

B-I-N-G for my pen

Repair umbrella

Order rosette for Betty and you'll recruit

That sort of thing

In Betty Marjorie

Set until the new one turns up

That sort of thing

Give Betty Marjorie

Set

Oh no, don't give it to me

I don't want it, I won't have it

It's your rosette

Anyway, you might not want me in your group

The others didn't

Betty

I, we, well we were all keen to

Perhaps discuss the chains

Discuss the fact that you've locked us in

Strawberry Shoe

And he sits in my last one

But you can have that

Er, no, no, I take it

Oh, I know this sounds ridiculous

But I thought you were coming in here

To get rid of me

Well, in truth

I feel bad about the rosette now

Don't worry about the rosette

You can have the rosette

Oh no, I don't want it Marjorie

No, no, please, please take it

I don't want it unless you're absolutely sure about me

This is where I've gone wrong in the past

You know, not taking the hints

Not seeing the signs

Not reading the five page letters of rejection

No, I want it to be different this time

So I am asking you

Do you or do you not want me in your group

Do you want me or not?

Yes or no?

Yes, no, no, yes

Just be honest

Well, yes!

This is just the beginning Marjorie

When we get out of prison for Seth Rijette

And I'm going to introduce you to my budgie

Cindertor

I know he's going to like you

I feel like I've known you all my life

Melkrat

Marjorie

Melkrat

Never had a best run before

Apart from Glenacors

This is nice

Oh, Frank

You were not to know that the alleged pest in the chart chart

Was not in fact exposing himself

Did you know he was a grave digger?

He did indeed I did Frank

Which is why I tried to alert you to the fact

Before you punched the innocent man into his freshly dug grave

Ah, morning, sir, voting this way

The door appears to be barred

If you might just give us a moment, sir

Frank, Thomas, there appears to be a small pocket of voters outside

Any reason why they're unable to access the booth?

Is it very important I tell the truth, John?

On this occasion, Frank, very much so

They promised they wouldn't

And it looks like they have

Mrs. Unwin and her lot, isn't it?

I believe so

Right, I'm going to fetch my loud halo from home, Frank

By the time I get back, I want to see these doors open

Or all your suffragettes will be arrested

Should we warn the women, Frank?

Uh, yes

Pineapple pet

Oh, why is Betty from the sweet shop still here?

I'm with the BFCBFF you are

Open up, Betty!

No!

We're taking a stand for female suffrage

Doesn't this is unwin know about this?

Oh yeah, we're all in this together

But she gave me her word

There's something fishy going on here

I wouldn't trust Betty from the sweet shop

It's common knowledge, she doesn't listen to a word anyone says

Yes, she once gave me a pound of liquor torpedoes

When I simply stopped by to ask for the time

What are we going to do, Thomas?

Frank, leave it to me

Yes, she is to introduce me to her buttery gal

Cindertoff

Birds, a nice Margaret

Father once bought a canary home from the pit

We called him pit

It's a shame we couldn't revive him

Where's your nose at, Margaret?

You gave it to her, didn't you?

All right, I'm just going to come out and say what we're all thinking

Margaret, you are pathetic

I didn't try

Oh no, you're not good at me, you're a face girl, sad and saggy

Oh Margaret, pay me no attention, I don't know what's coming from me

Oh, would you like me to mesmerise you, Eva?

Like I do, Mother

Miss Marisa, Betty Flattrots, and tell her to let us out of here

If only

I could try

Would you win?

Right about

Good luck, Gwen

Fiery bomb bomb

Birds, doesn't it?

The lab is from there

Ladies, do not be startled

Oh Thomas, I knew you would rest your soul, Leflue, right

Gwen, help me up

Ladies, you are to be arrested imminently

Oh, good thing

Unless you liberate yourselves from the hall

And the dastardly grasp of sweet chocolate

Oh, for heaven's sake

Oh, Thomas

Oh, Miss Emily

I thought I might have never seen you again

Could not bear it

Could you not, Thomas?

No

If anyone were to happen to be here

If anyone were to happen to you, I couldn't live for another minute

All right

If only I had some sort of keepsake

Something to remember you by forever

Only me much longer on the name

I can give your keepsake, Thomas

You can?

Yes

Kiss me

Pardon?

Kiss me, Thomas

Because the window, or should I climb in?

Everything is down at once

Thomas!

Gwen, get on!

I'm quite all right

Well, I hope you're pleased with yourself, Margaret

Now we're to be imprisoned for preventing his Majesty's elections

Oh, we've done nothing wrong

Other than break the law by preventing the electoral process

What if I fall in with a bad crowd and become a cocky villain?

I refuse to be incarcerated for a cause I do not believe in

Not shall I fail in my duty as a subject of this great empire

To protect an Englishman's right to vote

Unfortunately, I am no lily-livered pacifist

Votes for men

Right, it means done

Thomas, come and see this

Come on, you deluded sugar booby

That's Mrs. Butte

What is she doing with Betty?

Mrs. Butte appears to have Betty from the sweet shop in her headlock

Goodness, Frank

No, she's wriggled out

Oh, Mrs. Butte is down

Betty's put her in a half-nelson

Oh, it's a full-nelson

Wait, Mrs. Butte is down on one knee

Oh, she's blip did

I think Mrs. Butte has the key

I have it!

Audrey, get in!

Alas, where have you been?

Let's take her down, who's with me?

Nobody is Betty, annoying

Oh, I hate to say this Helen, but well done

Well, I hate to say this, mother but thank you

Ladies, this is the police

You ought to open this door immediately

Put that ridiculous thing down

Right, very good. I see you've opened the doors

Let's get back to the voting, shall we?

Frank, mark this down as a procedural hiatus

I'm sorry I let you down, Margery

Lemon's a sturdier than she looks

We may have lost the battle, but we haven't lost the war

and either one I'm proud to be fighting alongside the BIC

What is it again?

I do admire your principal intentions, Betty

Perhaps if you were to listen occasionally

there would be a place for you here at the BICCPRWS

Oh, I get it, you're throwing me out

No, no, no, that's not

I thought you were my best friend

But it turns out you're not

Scent of tough is going to be very upset

when he hears I have been let down

No, no, again

You miss understand

or nothing

There you are, Glenn

Oh, hello, officer Frank

Sorry about all this

Margaret, don't worry, I'm not here to arrest anyone

Oh, thank goodness

I'm very gentlemen

Gotta look at this mess

My ballots are all over the place

I'd like to think what Betty's been doing in my booth

Oh, my goodness

My lord

What now?

I don't think there'll be any voting going on in there today

I've had a baby

Oh, Kefa, you hardly made a sound so brave, huh?

Well, when you've had 14 of them is like shelling peas

Can we get you anything, Eva?

Tea?

When I gave birth, I had an intense desire

for a class of champagne

No, champagne, thank you, Mertle

But could someone pop to the shops and get me a bag of sweets?

I'm just joking

I'm sorry I've been a tiny bit grumpy

Especially with you, Margaret

You know you can't help being the way you are

Is it a boy or a girl, Eva?

It's a girl

What are you going to call her?

Oh, why hadn't I thought?

Well, Charlie wanted her but if it was a boy

and if it was a girl, he doesn't care

Suffrage?

Oh, yes, Margaret

I should call her a suffrage

Oh, oh

Oh, baby suffrage

Welcome to the world

Woop, woop, woop

Don't do that, Margaret

Not here was a suffragette

Never thought to fail

Not here was a suffragette

Spent the night in jail

Singing thoughts, falling in

It was just a beginning

You haven't seen anything yet

You haven't seen anything yet

You haven't seen anything yet

You haven't seen anything yet

You haven't seen anything

You haven't seen anything yet

You haven't seen anything yet

You haven't seen anything yet
