0:00:22 > 0:00:26Curious, Beach. The Empress appears to be breakfasting on blancmange.

0:00:26 > 0:00:28It was Cook's idea, my lord.

0:00:28 > 0:00:33In order to entice the Empress to return here from the kitchen.

0:00:33 > 0:00:36It appears Wellbeloved left the gate open when he was refreshed.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39We can't have the Empress wandering the streets, cadging blancmange.

0:00:39 > 0:00:41Where IS Wellbeloved?

0:00:41 > 0:00:44He was last seen in the small hours, my lord,

0:00:44 > 0:00:46declaring he was "going home to Tewkesbury"

0:00:46 > 0:00:49to stay with his mother, the old rat bag,

0:00:49 > 0:00:53"God bless her, never drew a sober breath".

0:00:53 > 0:00:55PIG BREAKS WIND

0:00:55 > 0:01:00Y'see? Wellbeloved goes missing, it puts her bowels in an uproar.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Her ladyship would like to see you, my lord.

0:01:04 > 0:01:05PIG DEFECATES LOUDLY

0:01:05 > 0:01:07Tewkesbury.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10It's practically in Belgium.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12HE GROANS

0:01:32 > 0:01:34That tree.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Altogether too loud.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Connie! The most appalling thing.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47Wellbeloved's done a bunk!

0:01:47 > 0:01:52Will you stop gibbering, Clarence. Lady Littlewood arrives any moment.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56You must bathe, shave - BURN those clothes -

0:01:56 > 0:01:59put on a suit and hat and then go somewhere else

0:01:59 > 0:02:00where you can't possibly be seen.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04Now, her husband was the Marquis of Littlewood,

0:02:04 > 0:02:06one of the oldest marquisates in the country.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10Was? Did he, er, give up being the marquis?

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Well, in the sense that he died, yes.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15It behoves us to assist his widow.

0:02:15 > 0:02:19She seeks comfort amongst people who know her.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21- Do we know her?- No.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23But there again, you entirely miss the point.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26People like us know each other on principle.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Ah, Frederick.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31Let's hope your arrival causes the intellectual portion

0:02:31 > 0:02:34of this conversation to leap joyously.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36Alcohol.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Three syllables. Hurrah.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40No more women. Never.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Now you're being garrulous.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45Now, Daphne Littlewood is by all accounts

0:02:45 > 0:02:48a delightful and intelligent woman.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50How old is she?

0:02:50 > 0:02:54The Dowager Marchioness is a woman of a certain age.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Not a threat. Good.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Mumsy, you're hurting me!

0:03:04 > 0:03:08Sorry, darling. Mumsy's excited about meeting new friends.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11HORN BLARES

0:03:18 > 0:03:20I didn't tell you to stop.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24You didn't give me no money for petrol, neither.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32Gin, sherry, port, brandy, pudding wine

0:03:32 > 0:03:34and a substantial dash of bitters.

0:03:34 > 0:03:38It's called Death Comes For The Archbishop.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43It insulates the drinker against the amorous attentions of the female.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45I should think it does, sir.

0:03:45 > 0:03:49I've been crossed in love for the last time, Beach.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53I met a girl at the Pink Pussy. Daisy Warner.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54Slip of a thing.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57We cut a rug, heard the chimes at midnight.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00I asked her to marry me in the usual way. She accepted.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Arranged to meet at the church the next morning.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04I show up, can't see her.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Bloke taps me on the shoulder. Guess who it is?

0:04:07 > 0:04:09- Lady's husband, sir?- No,

0:04:09 > 0:04:12it was Daisy, sans make-up.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16Turns out she's a merchant seaman named Derek.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Bit of a shock.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21I mean, Derek.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24On the whole, I thought it best not to go through with the arrangement.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25Crikey, sir.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28Women have made me lose my powers of reason.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I hereby forswear 'em.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33My heart shall never skip another beat on account of a floozy,

0:04:33 > 0:04:35popsy, goddess,

0:04:35 > 0:04:41nymph or any other manifestation of the laughably mislabelled gentle sex.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45Fiver on it.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46Very well, sir.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Good man. You'll regret it.

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Hmm.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Her husband's death is not recent

0:04:52 > 0:04:56although I think it's a subject to be avoided. Stay off it.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14- I say...- Right, that's it!

0:05:14 > 0:05:16THEY CHUCKLE

0:05:16 > 0:05:19My dear Lady Littlewood! Welcome!

0:05:19 > 0:05:24Oh, Daphne, j'insiste. But this is just too splendid!

0:05:24 > 0:05:28Oh, my brother and I rattle about the place. You know.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Oh, but I thought this handsome man was your husband!

0:05:31 > 0:05:33What?

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Oh no! My husband is no longer with us.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38My brother has never been... with us

0:05:38 > 0:05:42- but his physical presence somehow endures. Clarence?- What?

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Don't mention the dead husband. Oh.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49Oh, not hers. Oh, that's all right.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52Good, good. My dear Lady Tittlewood.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Welcome to, as it were... um...

0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Blandings.- Quite.

0:05:58 > 0:06:03Yes, so kind of this young girl. This car's broken.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Screamingly dull.

0:06:05 > 0:06:10And all the baggages and maids and clutter, all arrive tomorrow.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13Huxley, greet Lord Emsworth.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Are you an earl?- Yes.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18That's one down from the marquis.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20I'm a marquis, so I'm better than you.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Isn't he divine! He's such a wit!

0:06:22 > 0:06:28- So, where's the pig? - God. There's so much of her. Hello.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Who's that person? - She's your new pig man.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40I'm sorry about my brother. He's a trifle deaf.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43He has sustained a terrible injury to the side of his head.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46Oh, dear. When did that occur?

0:06:46 > 0:06:50Later this afternoon. Do come in.

0:06:51 > 0:06:56Erm... Miss, are you local...? Miss, er?

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Simmons. Yeah, I'm often down this way.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01I come and help my uncle out with his pig. He calls her the Queen.

0:07:01 > 0:07:02Extraordinary!

0:07:02 > 0:07:06The most dreadful blaggard imaginable lives round the corner here.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Calls his pig the Queen. - Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe?

0:07:09 > 0:07:11- Stinker Parsloe, I call him. - He's my uncle.- Oh.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14But you're right. He IS a stinker.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Miss Simmons, you're not a secret agent,

0:07:16 > 0:07:17working for the Stinker are you?

0:07:17 > 0:07:20No, Lord Emsworth. I'm just me.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Absolutely not, get a grip!

0:07:23 > 0:07:26Her feet must be size 16...

0:07:26 > 0:07:29..I mean, think of her legs...

0:07:29 > 0:07:31HE MOANS

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Now Connie, dear, do tell. Your brother.

0:07:34 > 0:07:38What are his interests? Is there a lady in his life?

0:07:38 > 0:07:40There is!

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Describe her to me.

0:07:42 > 0:07:47Well! Her face is dished and bristled.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51She is stupendously malodorous, she presently weighs -

0:07:51 > 0:07:55and I know because Clarence gives me adoring reports, every morning -

0:07:55 > 0:07:5746 stone.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01But she has surprisingly delicate feet.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05If God and the law allowed it,

0:08:05 > 0:08:09Clarence's PIG would probably be Countess of Emsworth.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12No female human would take the job.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I was looking for tea, but I'll settle for a drinky.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22No, no. Actually, they're both for me. Careful! That's not for girls.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24What about you? You for girls?

0:08:24 > 0:08:26No. No, I'm not.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28Do you bash the shuttlecock from the feathered end?

0:08:28 > 0:08:33What? No, I do not! I have forsworn the company of women.

0:08:33 > 0:08:34I now dedicate myself to alcohol.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36You call THAT alcohol?

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Tonight I'll give you something we used to mix up at my convent school.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42It's called Stations Of The Cross. One sip,

0:08:42 > 0:08:45you're crawling on your knees.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47No. Tonight you will give me nothing.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49I absolutely refuse to discuss your knees.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51This conversation is at an end.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Funny little thing, aren't you?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Be still my beating heart.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22Goodness gracious, I'm so sorry, my lord.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25I tried to divert the course of the falling sack...

0:09:25 > 0:09:27There was no falling sack!

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Let us shut the gate, my lord, shall we?

0:09:30 > 0:09:32We don't want the Empress loose in the grounds.

0:09:38 > 0:09:42Now, Clarence. You have to make an effort with Daphne.

0:09:42 > 0:09:45Of course. Daphne?

0:09:45 > 0:09:49Oh, yes, to be sure, yes. Lady Littlewick, yes, yes.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52You wander off while she is talking.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Whatever must she think?

0:09:54 > 0:09:58Just now she expressed a great personal interest in you,

0:09:58 > 0:10:00which must have cost her considerable effort!

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Just make her feel welcome, Clarence.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04- That her company is valued. - Yes, to be sure.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06Oh look, who's that?

0:10:06 > 0:10:10That's Daphne, you imbecile! Daphne! Do come and sit.

0:10:10 > 0:10:15Might I have a little tete-a-tete with your brother?

0:10:15 > 0:10:16Of course.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Clarence will regale you with...

0:10:21 > 0:10:25..hilarious anecdotes of his schooldays.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37Oh! Ha-ha!

0:10:39 > 0:10:42Yes. I went to school. Erm.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45I had many pleasant friends. Yes.

0:10:47 > 0:10:53They called me Fathead. Did your friends call you Fathead?

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Not especially...

0:10:58 > 0:11:04But I do find all this... incredibly... diverting.

0:11:06 > 0:11:10What a... FASCINATING man you are.

0:11:13 > 0:11:19My dear Lady... Piddlefoot.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22I should like you to know that your

0:11:22 > 0:11:28visit to Blandings is very welcome.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Why, thank you, Lord Emsworth.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36It's valuable.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39Oh, you are sweet.

0:11:41 > 0:11:48As a child I was teased for my particular passion.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Pigs.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Would you care to see my wiffle?

0:12:06 > 0:12:09Do I have the honour of addressing a Mr Ruddock,

0:12:09 > 0:12:11the Butler to the Littlewoods?

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Oh, I do beg your pardon, Madam.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16I wonder if I might enquire

0:12:16 > 0:12:19about certain domestic arrangements at your end?

0:12:26 > 0:12:28HE YELLS

0:12:28 > 0:12:31If you distress this pig... or drive her from her home...

0:12:31 > 0:12:34I will rub your noxious little face in that pile of dung.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Have a think about it.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38Where am I going, Beach, and what am I doing?

0:12:38 > 0:12:42You are fetching the book of pigs for Lady Littlewood, my lord.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Am I? What a capital idea.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Y'know, she's a damned clever woman, don't you think?

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Very sporting of her to be so interested in pigs.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55Indeed, my lord. The young marquis was advising me

0:12:55 > 0:12:58that when at leisure, his mother likes to muck out the pigsties.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02She finds it... soothing.

0:13:02 > 0:13:07Well, well, that is extraordinary!

0:13:08 > 0:13:10D'you know, Beach, for a minute there

0:13:10 > 0:13:13I thought you said she like to muck out the pigsties!

0:13:13 > 0:13:16I read in Variety Spice, my lord,

0:13:16 > 0:13:20that manual labour in the farmyard is intensely fashionable

0:13:20 > 0:13:23for ladies of a discerning temperament.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Good heavens!

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Erm, do you suppose our guest might wish to slip down to the sty now?

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Quick once-round? Mop and brush?

0:13:31 > 0:13:33I shall assemble the requisite instruments, my lord.

0:13:33 > 0:13:38Get some buckets, Beach, yes and a stout shovel.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41The Empress has still got a bit of a runny tummy.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47PIG DEFECATES LOUDLY

0:13:56 > 0:14:00Beach? Give Lady Littlespade the wood.

0:14:07 > 0:14:08Don't be shy.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Get stuck in.

0:14:10 > 0:14:11So, how does one...?

0:14:11 > 0:14:16One bends the knees, your ladyship, and gets right underneath it.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18She's got a bit of a runny tummy, y'see.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21Erm, it was the blancmange.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24There you go. Tickety-boo!

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Clarence! Under what demented pretext

0:14:31 > 0:14:36have you got the Marchioness of Littlewood mucking out the pigsty?

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Oh, she loves it! Can't get enough of it!

0:14:38 > 0:14:42Apparently at home you can't keep the shovel out of her hands!

0:14:43 > 0:14:46Charming woman. Awfully modern.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52Muck-shovelling party? Excellent. Soon have the place shipshape.

0:14:52 > 0:14:56Connie? There is a spare bucket.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58- Your ladyship. Might I have a...? - No.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01This is the stuff for the troops, marvellous.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Beach! What've you got there?

0:15:06 > 0:15:08Emergency measures, sir.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12Now look, I want you to know that I am agitated by this Miss Simmons.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15I'd be liar to say I wasn't, but I have backbone, damn it,

0:15:15 > 0:15:18and a bet's a bet. What emergency?

0:15:18 > 0:15:19It's not my place to say so!

0:15:19 > 0:15:23But I believe that Lady Littlewood has an ulterior motive.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Does she? By God! An ulterior motive. Hah! Erm.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31- What is that? - She's not what she seems.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34- She's not another bloke in drag? - No, sir.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37But I have reason to believe that the Littlewood estate is bankrupt,

0:15:37 > 0:15:40their domestic servants have not been paid for months.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42And the Marchioness tours the country

0:15:42 > 0:15:45looking for a solution to her embarrassment.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48That is why she is here at Blandings.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52To cast her net around his lordship.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56You speak in nautical riddles.

0:15:56 > 0:16:01She wishes to entrap your father in marriage.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Oh, phooey! What? Beach, you're tighter than I am!

0:16:05 > 0:16:09Who could possibly want to marry my father? Eh? Utter rot.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Oh, my God. What are we to do?

0:16:25 > 0:16:29No, no, no, no. NO!

0:16:34 > 0:16:36I've just been assaulting the Marquis of Littlewood.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Oh. Was that... pleasurable?

0:16:39 > 0:16:40Excessively.

0:16:42 > 0:16:43Hot work.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Get me a towel, would you?

0:16:46 > 0:16:48I cannot touch a woman.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50I didn't ask you to dry me.

0:16:50 > 0:16:51I don't have a towel big enough.

0:16:51 > 0:16:57I don't quite know what I'm saying. Miss Simmons, you confuse me.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09CLARENCE LAUGHS

0:17:09 > 0:17:13I haven't done this since I was a nip nob!

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Aha! A nine!

0:17:17 > 0:17:23Now, look here, Connie, I want you to be the first to know.

0:17:23 > 0:17:31I do believe I'm going to ask Lady Tickleputt a certain question.

0:17:31 > 0:17:36Erm, Giddyfruit. Oh, dash it! What is her name?

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Emsworth, by the sound of it.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Emsworth, I like that, I like that!

0:17:46 > 0:17:50Two, four, six. A ten! Aha!

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Bravo!

0:17:55 > 0:18:00Daphne dear, I cannot permit this charade to continue.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05We shall soon discover what can and cannot be permitted.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10You have a brain, he doesn't.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12He would be cataclysmically unhappy with you

0:18:12 > 0:18:14and unable to work out why. It would be cruel.

0:18:14 > 0:18:17Yes, certainly he will lose the benefit of your advice,

0:18:17 > 0:18:21for you will not be here, Connie, dear.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24Poor fellow dotes on me. I win, you see.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26You lose.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29SHE LAUGHS

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Capital!

0:18:36 > 0:18:41I have for-slorn love. And yet the stuff is all around me.

0:18:41 > 0:18:47There's the Guv'nor, look, about to be netted in Daphne's cap.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49And then there's me.

0:18:49 > 0:18:50PIG BREAKS WIND

0:18:50 > 0:18:54Well, that's easy for you to say. But I tell you this.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57If Monica Simmons was here right now,

0:18:57 > 0:19:02I should not be able to restrain myself.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04I should say...

0:19:04 > 0:19:07..your thundering good health..

0:19:07 > 0:19:09What should you say?

0:19:09 > 0:19:15I should say, "Look here, Monica Simmons.

0:19:15 > 0:19:20"You Olympian pile of sizzling womanhood.

0:19:20 > 0:19:26"You titanic, fabulous, double-breasted Amazon.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29"I love you."

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Olympian pile of sizzling womanhood?

0:19:31 > 0:19:35She is. I'd say, "Monica Simmons.

0:19:35 > 0:19:40"You walk into a room, it makes me want to shin up a ladder

0:19:40 > 0:19:43"and kiss your big...

0:19:43 > 0:19:47"red...lips."

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Go on, then.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05Ah...

0:20:05 > 0:20:08All right. Let's just get one thing straight.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- You're not going to turn out to be a man, are you?- No.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18- Are you?- Oh...

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Beach?

0:20:23 > 0:20:25You win.

0:21:05 > 0:21:09When Lady Littlewood marries Lord Emsworth...

0:21:09 > 0:21:12I expect to be banished.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15I fear that you may also be removed.

0:21:16 > 0:21:21I know it, your ladyship. I will take it on the chin.

0:21:21 > 0:21:22Yes.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27I think I shall go to my room.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Very good, my lady.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54Incidentally. Is Daffers getting anywhere with your old man?

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Last week she tried it on with Uncle Gregory,

0:21:56 > 0:21:58and he told her to sling her hook.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02Digger Daphne, he called her. So she came here.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05Full marks for perseverance.

0:22:11 > 0:22:15Where's the Empress?

0:22:15 > 0:22:18Just hang on a minute.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Erm, erm, Miss Simmons.

0:22:21 > 0:22:25You will observe, Lady Fiddleprune...

0:22:25 > 0:22:32the fine prospect. There is a sun...

0:22:34 > 0:22:38- ..some water.- Yes.

0:22:41 > 0:22:46Lady, erm... Giddyfruit, I...

0:22:46 > 0:22:50..oh! Ah!

0:22:52 > 0:22:57Would you do me the honour, I wonder of erm..?

0:22:57 > 0:23:01- MUMSY!- Yes. - It bit my fingy...

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Hold on, darling! Mumsy's coming.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07HE GROANS

0:23:10 > 0:23:11CREAKING, FABRIC TEARS

0:23:11 > 0:23:13Ow!

0:23:13 > 0:23:17Beach! What is a fingy?

0:23:17 > 0:23:18My FINGER, you stupid old goat!

0:23:18 > 0:23:22Oh, right you are. It's his finger. What bit you?

0:23:22 > 0:23:27- Your ruddy pig! Ow! - Darling, darling.- Did he say pig?

0:23:27 > 0:23:31Now look here, Cruxley, did you or did you not say pig?

0:23:31 > 0:23:34Pig! Pig! PIG, PIG, PIG!

0:23:34 > 0:23:36- He said pig.- THAT PIG!

0:23:36 > 0:23:42My dear fellow, that is The Empress. She does not bite.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45It ruddy well bit me. Look!

0:23:46 > 0:23:48You! Pig girl!

0:23:48 > 0:23:50The pig has become carnivorous. Despatch it.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Give over, you ghastly old trout!

0:23:52 > 0:23:54She's after you, Guv'nor.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Her husband blew the family fortune on booze -

0:23:57 > 0:24:00medal for him, by the way - and now she wants to be

0:24:00 > 0:24:04Mrs The Earl of Emsworth. Don'cha, Daph?

0:24:04 > 0:24:05HE BELCHES

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Excuse me. Moreover.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09As soon as Pinkbeard's got you in the bag,

0:24:09 > 0:24:13- she'll make Beach walk the plank. - And me.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17And me. And her. I mean it, Guv'nor.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19Beach will become a tramp,

0:24:19 > 0:24:21Aunt C will fall among the Shabby Women,

0:24:21 > 0:24:25you'll come down to breakfast to find the Hideous Huxley

0:24:25 > 0:24:27sitting in MY chair,

0:24:27 > 0:24:31scoffing the tragic sausages that are all that remains of The Empress.

0:24:43 > 0:24:48But my dear Lady Littlehope. This can never be.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52Constance, Frederick.

0:24:52 > 0:24:58Beach. The Empress. This is my family.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02If I may be permitted to clarify.

0:25:02 > 0:25:06You may have decided to marry my brother,

0:25:06 > 0:25:10but in fact he would like you to leave.

0:25:10 > 0:25:11Would that be a fair precis?

0:25:13 > 0:25:17You have no idea the contempt

0:25:17 > 0:25:23the name of Emsworth shall inspire in the drawing rooms of Mayfair,

0:25:23 > 0:25:27when I speak of my treatment here.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31Well, be sure to take off all your clothes before doing so.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34There is an aroma of fat old sow about you

0:25:34 > 0:25:36that is frankly overpowering.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43Better to be naked in Mayfair, Lady Earwig,

0:25:43 > 0:25:44than a bad smell.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49- LITTLEWOOD! - Earwig will do for you.

0:25:49 > 0:25:53- Ha!- You're drunk!

0:25:53 > 0:25:56I am as tight as an owl.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59But in the morning, I shall have a headache,

0:25:59 > 0:26:04and you'll still have a bum like a moose.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10- Ha!- Cheerio!

0:26:16 > 0:26:19Oh, hurry up, mother!

0:26:22 > 0:26:26Oh, is Lady Pifflewit leaving?

0:26:26 > 0:26:29- She is, Clarence.- Oh. I do hope nobody said anything untoward

0:26:29 > 0:26:32about her dead husband?

0:26:35 > 0:26:39- Mumsy, my fingy!- Move your hand, you stupid child!

0:26:42 > 0:26:44- Beach.- Your ladyship.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Champagne on the terrace, I think.

0:26:47 > 0:26:51I want us all to enjoy the view.
