0:00:02 > 0:00:05- I could call again to check all is well.- It would be appreciated.
0:00:05 > 0:00:09There are some who have already secured their places through
0:00:09 > 0:00:13- hard work and diligence.- You're really going to Lady Asquith's?
0:00:13 > 0:00:16They're on a business trip and might not be back for ages.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18None of it belongs to him anyway,
0:00:18 > 0:00:21except for this crusty old book he's always writing in.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23She has the book.
0:00:23 > 0:00:24It's got dirt on everyone.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39'I've never been afraid to take chances,
0:00:39 > 0:00:42'especially if it makes life better for all of us.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48'But at the foundling hospital, taking a chance can be dangerous.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57'Some chances we are too scared to take.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04'And it wasn't just foundlings who had to take risks.'
0:01:07 > 0:01:08Gerti.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13'Soon, we'd be leaving the foundling hospital,
0:01:13 > 0:01:15'and it might be my last chance to bring down Matron.'
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Look at this.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Girls! Nice straight line!
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Come on! Chop chop. No dawdling.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35'Could this book have the evidence I need?'
0:02:09 > 0:02:11The book has every deal we've ever done -
0:02:11 > 0:02:14selling foundlings, dates, how much we got for them.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16We might as well just confess it all to the coppers.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Just leave the rest out there. - Find that book.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21That is what I am trying to do!
0:02:24 > 0:02:25Oh, Mr Branston.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Blanche and Jess did not leave with it,
0:02:28 > 0:02:30which means it is still somewhere in this hospital.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32I will find it.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Now, please go. - I'm counting on you, Gerti.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- Cook...- This new flour, Matron, it's not up to much.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Loaves not rising, flat scones.
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Don't think much to your new supplier.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52A skilful cook does not blame her ingredients.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Unless you're questioning my judgment.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Course not, Matron.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Excellent.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Lady Asquith's friend will be lunching with me,
0:03:01 > 0:03:04just some cold meats and we'll have him on his way.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- What's that? - The skills of a detective.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- Which are...?- Observation, assessment, deduction.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15And what have you observed today?
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Nothing much.
0:03:18 > 0:03:19CHUCKLING
0:03:21 > 0:03:23What are you looking at?
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Morning, boys. Jackets on and line up, please.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41- I was wondering if you are free...? - I'm ever so busy today,
0:03:41 > 0:03:45but I do enjoy a turn in the park on my day off.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Well, perhaps you'd like some company.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Constable? Wait there.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52What a treat!
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Well, it's not even my birthday.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57So anyone could find that book under my bed.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59We could get in real trouble.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02It had Matron's name in it, with amounts of money.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Mr Grace must have paid Matron for something.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06It proves they're connected.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08I need to find a better hiding place for that book.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- I'll go and get it. - Hetty, you'll get caught.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13- Hetty!- Silent!
0:04:13 > 0:04:17Get back in line. Maybe next time you could stay for a cup of tea.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Of course.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Girls.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Come on.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24I was saying that...
0:04:24 > 0:04:29- Matron.- Is there a problem, Constable?
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Matron, I was just checking in.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34I was on patrol in the area, so...
0:04:34 > 0:04:36I didn't just turn up for no reason at all.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Well, as you can see, everything is fine.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40If that is all?
0:04:41 > 0:04:42Good day, Constable.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49If you'll excuse me, I must get back to work.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53Sheila.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Sheila will be a moment - tell Nurse.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Cook tells me you're doing good work.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04She's very pleased you're staying.
0:05:04 > 0:05:05Thank you, Matron.
0:05:07 > 0:05:08I'm searching for something.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Something Jess may have left you.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- Jess?- Have you heard anything?
0:05:15 > 0:05:16No, Matron.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24Hetty and Harriet were looking at something this morning.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25They were whispering.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Off to class.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Chester Benjamin.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Mr Benjamin, I was not informed of your arrival.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Matron Bottomley. Apologies for keeping you waiting.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm rather early, I'm afraid, but more time to tour this outstanding
0:05:51 > 0:05:53building. I don't want to waste a moment while I'm here.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Yes, of course, a tour of the hospital.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57I shall ask one of the nurses to show you around.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59But I'm sure you are the person to tell me everything
0:05:59 > 0:06:01about the hospital - Matron knows best, and all.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04I'm not keeping you from anything, I hope?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07No, no, no, no. Of course not.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08This way, Mr Benjamin.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11My friends call me Chester, and I'd be deeply honoured if you would too.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13If it's not too improper.
0:06:13 > 0:06:14Chester, of course.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Ah!- Judd!
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- Sir, I'm wet. - Had an accident, did we?
0:06:26 > 0:06:27The privy is just outside.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Sir, can I go and get a bucket?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32No, I shall investigate this.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34You move up to there. Move along.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Now, carry on with your work, and no comparing.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39I shall return shortly.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Has anybody worked out problem number four?
0:06:43 > 0:06:45This is impossible. At least I won't need maths in the Army.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46You need maths everywhere.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50It's all Army, Army, Army with you. Can we talk about something else?
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Like what? You've been grumpy all morning.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53Yeah, are you all right?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55- My stomach hurts. - You ate enough at breakfast.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59- You're not funny. - That's a lot of chatter.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Have you all finished your work?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Was that Constable Clark this morning?
0:07:03 > 0:07:04Has something happened?
0:07:06 > 0:07:07Nothing for you to worry about.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Settle down. Back to work.
0:07:13 > 0:07:14I spy an opportunity.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22So, girls, when you add ...ing, or...
0:07:22 > 0:07:24The answer's in there.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Why would Matron be getting money from Mr Grace?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30What if Blanche wasn't the only foundling she sold?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Maybe she's done it before.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35If you keep going after Matron, you'll make things worse.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37What if it's still happening?
0:07:37 > 0:07:38We need to stop her.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- Harriet!- What is going on?
0:07:46 > 0:07:47Harriet didn't mean to.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49- I didn't...- Enough!
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Go and get changed quickly before Matron sees that mess.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- Yes?- Please, Nurse, may I go to the infirmary?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59I'm not feeling well.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Oh, feeling sick all of a sudden, are we?
0:08:02 > 0:08:05I will not have two foundlings traipsing around this hospital.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Now, get back to work, all of you.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Yes, there is a magnificent view of the city from that window.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Most inspiring.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21But it's the facilities inside the hospital
0:08:21 > 0:08:22that I'm most curious about.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Yes. Sadly, as I'm sure Lady Asquith has told you,
0:08:26 > 0:08:28our facilities are not as up-to-date as we would wish.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32Oh, before I forget, I have a letter from her.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34Oh. Thank you.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Yes, well, I shall tell her the day.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59A wonderful opportunity for a foundling.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Indeed. Lucky girl.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06You know, being here has cemented my plans.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11I intend to open my own refuge for foundlings in New York City.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16I've always wanted to lend the Benjamin name to something grand,
0:09:16 > 0:09:18and help some poor children, of course.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Foundlings in New York?
0:09:19 > 0:09:24Oh, there's need everywhere, and I feel I'm the man to do this.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28I'll be appointing a matron soon, which is quite an undertaking.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31I've got to find me somebody who is up to the task.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33The right matron can make all the difference.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Choose the wrong one, however, and you will find...
0:09:35 > 0:09:36Matron, there you are. We must discuss the roof.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39There are leaks springing up every...where.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42As you can see, I have a visitor.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Chester Benjamin.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Cranbourne, Donald Cranbourne.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Matron, we must attend to the leakage.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53I see I'm distracting you from serious work.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57No, I'm sure we can afford a small delay for a guest of Lady Asquith.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Mr Cranbourne, I will speak with you later.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02- Good to meet you, Cranfield. - Mr Benjamin.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Now, let me take you to see the girls' classrooms.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07And you must tell me all about your wonderful plans...
0:10:30 > 0:10:31Matron.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Mr Benjamin, Nurse Macclesfield...
0:10:35 > 0:10:37..and our senior girls.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Delightful.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Our foundlings are trained in practical accomplishments -
0:10:51 > 0:10:55sewing and other handicrafts. But their formal education is key.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59I also make it my business to know everything about my foundlings...
0:11:00 > 0:11:03..so I can place them into positions most suited to their talents.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04Very impressive, Matron.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Very impressive.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Well, from you, that is high praise indeed.
0:11:11 > 0:11:12Harriet.
0:11:18 > 0:11:24Mr Benjamin has brought word from the Asquiths.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27They are remaining in New York for the foreseeable future.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30And they want you to join them there.
0:11:30 > 0:11:31- APPLAUSE - Well done, Harriet.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Congratulations, Harriet.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40What did you think I was going to say?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Mr Benjamin, would you excuse me a moment?
0:11:44 > 0:11:45Hetty Feather.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51I wish I was going to America.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Going anywhere, really.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Maybe you could stay here with me.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58I could ask Cook if she needs extra help in the kitchen.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Go to Cook. Tell her I require a special meal for our guest -
0:12:07 > 0:12:09a leg of lamb and a trifle.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- Yes, Matron.- I've heard reports of Harriet hiding stolen property
0:12:13 > 0:12:15under her bed.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Harriet wouldn't steal.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19The governors are yet to approve her going to America -
0:12:19 > 0:12:22it would be a shame for her to lose out on this opportunity,
0:12:22 > 0:12:24or for someone else to ruin it for her.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Take my message to Cook.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31And come straight back.
0:12:39 > 0:12:40When you've completed your work,
0:12:40 > 0:12:43you can look forward to drill this afternoon, boys.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Oh, I don't feel well. My tummy hurts.
0:12:46 > 0:12:47No surprises there.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51- Are you faking it, too?- No.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53No, I probably just ate too much at breakfast.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Walter, didn't you feel unwell the other day?
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Yeah, but why does that matter?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00I'm observing a pattern.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03I fear there may be some sort of disease spreading amongst the boys.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05- What sort of disease? - You think I'm ill?
0:13:05 > 0:13:08- What's wrong with me?- That, dear friends, is still to be deduced.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Sir, are nurses allowed to be married
0:13:10 > 0:13:12when working at the hospital?
0:13:12 > 0:13:17I do believe regulations prohibit nurses from being married.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20I don't think matrons can be married, either.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Who'd want to marry Matron?
0:13:25 > 0:13:28A hospital this size is a big undertaking.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30You manage it so well, too.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32I do have an excellent staff.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35A staff is only as good as its leader.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39Well, a good matron chooses her staff wisely.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41That is just one of the lessons I've learned in all of my years
0:13:41 > 0:13:43of experience.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47If I can offer any advice or assistance when you start hiring...
0:13:47 > 0:13:48You are kind to offer.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50I know how busy you must be.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Now, my plans are ambitious.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55The facilities will be modern, as befits our changing times -
0:13:55 > 0:13:57- gymnasium, sports fields. - How interesting.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I have lobbied for new facilities
0:13:59 > 0:14:01for the children's physical education,
0:14:01 > 0:14:04but sadly, some of the governors are a little less progressive
0:14:04 > 0:14:05in their outlook.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'm a firm believer in a healthy mind and a healthy body.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Oh, I couldn't agree more. The boys and girls have drill this afternoon.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Perhaps you'd like to watch before we eat.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16- Excellent.- Shall we?- Yeah.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24A leg of lamb and a trifle?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26That's what Matron said.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27Some cold slices, she said.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Nothing fancy. She's changed her tune.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32What's so special about this guest?
0:14:32 > 0:14:36He's American. He sounds so funny. You should see his shoes.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Not likely I'll have a chance to, with a leg of lamb to roast.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41What are those supposed to be?
0:14:43 > 0:14:45I've not baked this badly since I were a girl.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48I can't serve those.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52Go on, back to class before Matron comes for both of us.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55And I'm not one to sing my own praises,
0:14:55 > 0:14:59but I am known as a rather fine pitcher back home,
0:14:59 > 0:15:00and an even better hitter.
0:15:00 > 0:15:05Now, it takes skill and focus and excellent eyesight.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08Mr Benjamin tells me there are many opportunities for a woman of my
0:15:08 > 0:15:10talents in America.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12His insistent bragging is rather unseemly.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14..winding the arm up...
0:15:14 > 0:15:16I find it rather refreshing,
0:15:16 > 0:15:19a man who confidently wears his ambition and success.
0:15:19 > 0:15:20That's good.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25You know, I'm sure I'd be a good pitcher.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26I'd hit a home run.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28You guys picked up the rules quickly.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30These are clever boys. They're a credit to you.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33I take the lead in the boys' education.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37America always welcomes sharp young men.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40No foundling ever goes to America.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Unless the Army sends us there.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Actually, one of our foundlings will be sailing to New York.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Harriet. She'll be joining the Asquiths there.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Come along, girls.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58If she found it under my bed, I'll be punished.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01If I get in trouble, maybe I won't be allowed to go to America.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Don't be silly, she can't do anything to stop you.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05There must be a way to find that book.
0:16:05 > 0:16:06It's probably in her office.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08How far do you think it is?
0:16:08 > 0:16:09Matron's office? Just down the corridor.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11No, America.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13It's such a long way.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14What if she's hidden it in the library?
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Do you think I should check the library?
0:16:16 > 0:16:19- Mr Cranbourne.- Nurse Macclesfield.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Hetty, I don't think I want...
0:16:23 > 0:16:25No, it's probably in her office, don't you think?
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Why ask me? You never listen anyway.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Well done, Harriet.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- You're going to America. - Everybody knows.
0:16:33 > 0:16:34But what if she's locked it away?
0:16:42 > 0:16:43Right, boys. Pay close attention.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46We will be doing a series of exercises for Matron's guest.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Ned, come along. Judd, stand up straight.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51- Get back to it, boy.- Get up!
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Now, leg raises, please.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Any more jumping, and my food's going to come up.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Maybe there is a disease.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00If Harriet's in America, then that's where I'm going to be.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02How do you plan to do that? Stowaway?
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- I was joking.- Mr Cranbourne was ill last week,
0:17:08 > 0:17:11and Nurse Winston said some of the junior girls had been ill.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14The disease must be throughout the hospital.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16- What is it?- I'm not sure.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19What if someone were making us ill deliberately?
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Boys, get back into line!
0:17:22 > 0:17:25I really do expect more of an effort from you all!
0:17:26 > 0:17:28Our guest is going to see us at our best.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34Some of the foundlings come to us from terrible circumstances.
0:17:35 > 0:17:40I have made it my life's work to improve their lives, educating them,
0:17:40 > 0:17:42nurturing them, running the staff.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44A matron's work is never done.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45And yet, perhaps it is.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48At this hospital. I mean,
0:17:48 > 0:17:50think of all the other children who still need a future,
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- who go without... - You've won me round, Matron.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57And I dare say New York will be very impressed with you, too.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00- Chester?- How would you feel leaving behind your position here to go
0:18:00 > 0:18:02to New York to take the reins at my hospital?
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Am I asking too much?
0:18:08 > 0:18:09No.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11No, it would be an honour.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14I would be delighted to go to New York.
0:18:14 > 0:18:15Excellent.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Excellent!
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Eyes front.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Now, boys, windmill arms, please.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30WHISTLE BLOWS Left, right.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32- Left, right. - How's it going, Cranfield?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34It's Cranbourne.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Stand up straight before she sees you.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42But I feel rotten.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48The girls, too.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Got it!
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Some tea, Matron?
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Come on, girls! No shilly-shallying.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Mr Benjamin, meet our cook.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01- Sir.- Pleasure's mine.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04I'm looking forward to sampling your cooking.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10That was a good job!
0:19:12 > 0:19:14HE VOMITS
0:19:15 > 0:19:17What on earth...?
0:19:20 > 0:19:21Oh.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23Poison!
0:19:24 > 0:19:28- The food!- I'll not have you besmirching my name, you little...
0:19:28 > 0:19:32It's the flour. It's been poisoned for days, maybe even weeks.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36- What are you saying?- Keep quiet! What nonsense!- Wait.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39This boy has something to say, I want to hear him.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Thank you, sir.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Gid fell ill when he ate a lot of bread at breakfast.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46And Judd ate all the leftover Yorkshire puddings.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50But Mathias and I didn't have any of the bread, and we've not been sick.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54Therefore, the flour must have been poisoned.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55The new supplier.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58Of course you haven't poisoned the children, Cook.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00The boy just has an overactive imagination.
0:20:00 > 0:20:01Why would anyone poison the flour?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03I've read about this.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07Criminal gangs mix flour with unsuitable ingredients,
0:20:07 > 0:20:08chalk and the like.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12They make a pretty penny, but it causes terrible sickness.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I knew something was wrong with the supplies, I said so!
0:20:15 > 0:20:17None of my cakes were rising, pastries falling apart.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19It wasn't my prize cooking at fault!
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Wasn't the new supplier one of your contacts, Matron?
0:20:23 > 0:20:25You seemed so very pleased with the deal.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Half the price of the previous supplier.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31I cannot be expected to investigate the source of all our suppliers...
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Well done, young man. Well done.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- Excellent work.- Nurse.
0:20:35 > 0:20:36Nurse, come and clean up this mess.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Mr Benjamin, shall we retire to lunch?
0:20:40 > 0:20:41I'll have someone see to your shoes.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45My shoes can wait. You're still needed here.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47I'm sure Mr Cranbourne can cope.
0:20:47 > 0:20:52Of course, Matron. You mustn't allow this unfortunate situation to delay
0:20:52 > 0:20:53your visitor.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Shall we, Mr Benjamin, please?
0:20:59 > 0:21:02So, Nurse, where shall we begin?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Vince, could you take Judd to the infirmary?
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Of course, Nurse. Say hello to Constable Clark for me.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Chester, I must apologise again.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22I will get to the bottom of this, and the culprits will be punished.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25Sometimes I'm just let down by my staff.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28But a staff is only as good as its leader.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Well, Mr Cranbourne and I jointly lead the hospital,
0:21:30 > 0:21:32and he has disappointed me today.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Now, when would you like me to sail for New York, hmm?
0:21:35 > 0:21:37I can make my arrangements immediately.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42As a man of action, I am sure you would like me to start straightaway.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45- And the sick foundlings? - Oh, they will recover.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47They are in good hands with Mr Cranbourne.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50I see.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Unfortunately, I don't believe it would be right and proper for me to
0:21:54 > 0:21:58steal you away, not when your services are still needed here.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Oh, please, Chester, what about our arrangement?
0:22:00 > 0:22:04Matron Bottomley, those children require your full attention and...
0:22:06 > 0:22:08I have troubled you long enough.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10- Mr Benjamin...- Goodbye, Matron.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13I believe I can find my own way out.
0:22:13 > 0:22:14I'm sure we can work this...
0:22:29 > 0:22:32You just cannot help yourself, can you?
0:22:32 > 0:22:33Oh, you silly girl.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39If you just keep your head down,
0:22:39 > 0:22:41you might have a chance of seeing your mother again,
0:22:41 > 0:22:44or you might find yourself at the other end of the country.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46- You can't do that! - Oh, I can do what I like.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49Harriet's position could still disappear just like that.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51I saw the book, it's proof!
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Proof of what?
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Tell me, Hetty. What is it that you think you know?
0:23:00 > 0:23:01Hmm?
0:23:04 > 0:23:05You know nothing.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12And besides, who would believe the word of a...
0:23:13 > 0:23:15..disobedient little foundling over mine?
0:23:15 > 0:23:19They believed Ned. Mr Benjamin listened to him.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45In the morning, that will be ashes.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47- You can't do...- I've reached my limits with you, Hetty Feather,
0:23:47 > 0:23:50and I promise you, you will suffer! Now get out!
0:24:17 > 0:24:20It really was evidence of what she's been up to, and she burnt it.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27She destroyed the evidence, don't you care?
0:24:27 > 0:24:28It's always about you.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30I don't want to hear anything about the book.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32What's wrong? Is this about America?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Because...- Shut up about America.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Like you even care. Nobody does.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40I'm just supposed to jump on a ship and sail away forever.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43It's a big adventure - you can't be a baby about this.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44I don't want it.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47I don't want to leave everyone and everything behind.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Why didn't you say anything?
0:24:50 > 0:24:52SHE SIGHS
0:24:52 > 0:24:56I've been trying all day, Hetty, all day.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58But all you care about is Matron.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59It was our chance.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01I had to try and stop her, I had to.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Bringing down Matron helps all of us.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Stop it!
0:25:05 > 0:25:08This was never about helping foundlings.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10It's about you against Matron.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11That's not true!
0:25:11 > 0:25:14You're selfish, Hetty, and you never listen.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20To put those children's lives at risk
0:25:20 > 0:25:23for the sake of a few shillings, it really is beyond belief.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25We should never have changed suppliers.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28I trusted them. But rest assured, I will deal with this swiftly.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30A child could have been killed!
0:25:30 > 0:25:32We must inform the governors, and perhaps the police.
0:25:32 > 0:25:33Mr Cranbourne!
0:25:33 > 0:25:36We must not jeopardise this hospital's reputation!
0:25:36 > 0:25:39- If this were to get out... - This is serious!- I agree!
0:25:41 > 0:25:44But we are going to change suppliers immediately.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Mr Cranbourne, we must work together on this.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49You and I, you know how I depend on you.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54How am I to ensure the same mistake will not happen again
0:25:54 > 0:25:56without someone as honourable as...?
0:25:56 > 0:26:00Someone as worldly as your good self by my side?
0:26:01 > 0:26:03You are at the helm.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Yes, well, I...
0:26:09 > 0:26:11should go and ensure that the boys are settled.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32America.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36A new opportunity.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41'I tried to bring Matron down, and I failed.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44'And I lost my best friend, too.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47'But somewhere there had to be more proof.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51'Even if I had to do it alone, I'd make sure that one day,
0:26:51 > 0:26:52'everyone would know the truth about Matron.'
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Foundling girls!
0:27:00 > 0:27:02This ends now. Give it back.
0:27:02 > 0:27:03I want something else first.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Maybe others would understand if they were your real friends.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11- Be quiet, Sheila. - Scaredy-cat, scaredy-cat.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Hand it over, you snake!
0:27:17 > 0:27:18Boys, what are you doing?
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Ida!
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Wait, stop!
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Stop! Please!
