0:01:39 > 0:01:41Is this the moors?
0:01:41 > 0:01:42It is.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Good afternoon.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Miss Lea? I'm Miss Winter's housekeeper.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28My name is Judith.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Very good. I'll send up some sandwiches right away.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- You must be hungry after your long journey.- Thank you.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47Miss Winter expects to see you in the library at four.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41So, Miss Lea, have you read ANY of my books?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Almost all of them, I think.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Well...
0:03:51 > 0:03:53You'd better sit down.
0:04:00 > 0:04:05Now, if I interpreted your answer to my letter correctly,
0:04:05 > 0:04:08you're not exactly leaping at this very attractive offer I've made you.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Well, I...- You'd be guaranteed a very healthy advance.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Hmm. But I can see from what you're wearing,
0:04:18 > 0:04:21you're not particularly interested in money.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25I've written about people who don't care for money,
0:04:25 > 0:04:28but I never actually expected to meet one.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Are my books too popular for you?
0:04:35 > 0:04:38What exactly makes you hesitate?
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I'd like to know what made you choose me as a potential biographer.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Ah.
0:04:50 > 0:04:55It certainly wasn't your celebrated biography of the Bronte sisters...
0:04:57 > 0:04:59..which I wouldn't dream of reading.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01BOOK CLATTERS
0:05:01 > 0:05:05No, what caught my attention, Miss Lea,
0:05:05 > 0:05:09was that piece you wrote for that pretentious little magazine
0:05:09 > 0:05:12about the Landier sisters, the twins.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Obviously, I've been doing some research,
0:05:16 > 0:05:17and I couldn't help noticing
0:05:17 > 0:05:20in the couple of dozen interviews I looked at,
0:05:20 > 0:05:22you give a different account of your life in every one of them.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24You think I'm a liar?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26That isn't quite what I said.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31You surely don't think I'm so dull
0:05:31 > 0:05:34as to trot out the same story over and over again?
0:05:36 > 0:05:38I make things up so as not to bore myself.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44It's my profession. After all, they're only journalists...
0:05:45 > 0:05:47..if you take my point.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49I'm not sure that I do, exactly. I'm sorry.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57You don't need to be so polite. I can't abide politeness.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00I always think that being nice...
0:06:01 > 0:06:04..is what's left over after you've failed at everything else.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07You're obviously a great success.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Ah!
0:06:08 > 0:06:10SHE CHUCKLES
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Oh, that's better.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Have you a love life?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Oh, wait, wait! Wait!
0:06:23 > 0:06:27I have an extraordinary story. Don't turn your back on it.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30It's about twins.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Please, come back.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Come on.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Sit down.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Don't take offence. I'm only trying to get to know you.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51I can't be expected to spill the secrets of a lifetime
0:06:51 > 0:06:53to a complete stranger.
0:06:53 > 0:06:54But this was your idea.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56I thought this is what you wanted to do.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- It's not that I want to. I have to. - Why?
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Because I'm old. I'm dying.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Dying?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Why else should I subject myself to all this?
0:07:14 > 0:07:15Hmm.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23What do you need from me?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28I need to be sure that you're intending to tell me the truth.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31I'm a biographer, I deal in facts.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Oh, how stupendously boring, you poor thing.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37Suppose we start by me
0:07:37 > 0:07:40asking you three independently verifiable questions?
0:07:40 > 0:07:43- And then if your answers are true... - Three questions.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Pleasantly traditional.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49My first question - what is your real name?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Ah, I could easily bamboozle you there.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54It's Vida Winter. I had it changed by deed poll.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58What you really need to know is the name I was originally known by.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01That's right, yes.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Adeline March.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09My next question is your place of birth.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13You can check in the records of St Bart's in London.
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Next.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18Um, I'd like you to tell me something that happened to you
0:08:18 > 0:08:21before you changed your name, which is also a matter of public record.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Hm, I can do that, but first I have some conditions of my own.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33- What are they?- You must let me tell my story chronologically.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35No interruptions, no questions
0:08:35 > 0:08:38and no sneaky peeping at the last page.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43- All right.- Good.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Do you believe in ghosts?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55That's not a very easy question.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Do you or don't you?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Certain kinds of ghosts, maybe.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08I was brought up in a house about five miles from here.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11A haunted house.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- I see.- No, you don't.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28I call it my story,
0:09:28 > 0:09:33but it has none of the familiar consolations that word implies.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37It's something far harsher...
0:09:38 > 0:09:41..much more painful.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45Something I suppose we have to call the truth.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53I was brought up in a house called Angelfield.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58When I was 17, there was a fire. The house was destroyed.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00And there's a public record?
0:10:00 > 0:10:03It was in all the local papers.
0:10:06 > 0:10:12And I can show you a different sort of record...
0:10:18 > 0:10:21SHE GASPS
0:10:21 > 0:10:24So, you see, in spite of what I just said...
0:10:26 > 0:10:29..you know the end of my story.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32The end? You said that happened when you were 17,
0:10:32 > 0:10:36- before you'd even started writing. - Oh, writing.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38That was just to fill in the time.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45I'm sorry if I've shocked you, Miss Lea.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51One becomes so accustomed to one's own horrors.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Come in.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12If you don't mind, Dr Clifton, Miss Winter's doctor,
0:12:12 > 0:12:14would like to have a word with you.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15Ah. OK.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Thank you for agreeing to see me, Miss Lea.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Miss Winter wanted me to explain her condition to you.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Oh?- Miss Winter has cancer of the pancreas,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32which we've recently discovered has spread throughout her body.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34This means she has very little time left.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37How long?
0:12:37 > 0:12:39We're not able to say precisely.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Most people wouldn't have survived this long,
0:12:41 > 0:12:43but Miss Winter is extremely tough.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47She just wanted me to make you aware that time is of the essence.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50You can let her know I understand.
0:12:50 > 0:12:51Thank you.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Um, have you been her doctor long?
0:12:57 > 0:13:01Long enough to know that I'm extremely impatient to read your book.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09I was pleased last night
0:13:09 > 0:13:12when you didn't ask the question everybody else always does.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16- What question's that?- About the first book.- Oh, The Thirteenth Tale?
0:13:16 > 0:13:19- That's right.- And everybody always asks why there are only twelve?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- That's right. - Why are there only twelve?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Shall we get started?
0:13:27 > 0:13:30RECORDER BEEPS
0:13:32 > 0:13:35The story begins at Angelfield.
0:13:40 > 0:13:46After the mysterious, unexplained death of their parents,
0:13:46 > 0:13:51the house now belonged to Charlie Angelfield and his sister Isabelle.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56She'd left the house less than a year before but her husband,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Roland March, had been killed in the war
0:13:59 > 0:14:02and now she returned.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Of course, in their parents' day,
0:14:09 > 0:14:12there had been dozens of servants to run the estate
0:14:12 > 0:14:14but now only two remained -
0:14:14 > 0:14:19Mrs Dunne the housekeeper, known to everyone as The Missus,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22and the gardener, John Digence,
0:14:22 > 0:14:24who we called John The Dig.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Can you put it down there?
0:14:31 > 0:14:33BABIES GURGLE
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Well, well.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42- What are they called? - Adeline and Emmeline.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Which one is which?
0:14:46 > 0:14:49You know, I haven't the slightest idea.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51BABIES CRY
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Where is Mr Angelfield?
0:14:53 > 0:14:56He'll be in the library, I expect, madam.
0:14:56 > 0:14:57I'll leave these with you.
0:15:03 > 0:15:08Truth to tell, it was not poverty or even the demands of the war
0:15:08 > 0:15:12which brought about the exodus of the Angelfield staff.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15It was the sense of chaos
0:15:15 > 0:15:20and unease caused by the bizarre and unpredictable
0:15:20 > 0:15:22behaviour of Isabelle's brother.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Charlie, I'm back.
0:15:26 > 0:15:27What do you mean?
0:15:29 > 0:15:32I'm back for good. I brought the children with me.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33What?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36What children?
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- Oh. Oh, yes. - It's just you and me now, Charlie.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46You shouldn't have gone away for so long, Isabelle.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50I had to, Charlie. I explained it all to you.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04All the same.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24This one can be Adeline.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43I suppose we were shamefully neglected
0:16:43 > 0:16:47when we were children. No schooling, no discipline.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51THEY TALK IN MADE-UP LANGUAGE
0:16:54 > 0:16:59We were so much on our own, we invented our own private language.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16Charlie and Isabelle were so wrapped up in one another
0:17:16 > 0:17:20that the only people in our lives vaguely resembling parents
0:17:20 > 0:17:22were The Missus and John The Dig.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Are you all right, missus?
0:17:29 > 0:17:32THEY CHATTER IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE
0:17:34 > 0:17:38But we did have each other, and we were all the world to one another.
0:17:39 > 0:17:45We couldn't imagine that anyone but ourselves really existed.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I expect that's why we were so cruel.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54The topiary garden had been planted
0:17:54 > 0:17:57by John The Dig's great-grandfather.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00It was his pride and joy.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21We weren't confined to the house and garden.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25We roamed all over the estate and did exactly what we felt like.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30We were the children from the big house, so they put up with us...
0:18:30 > 0:18:32One...
0:18:32 > 0:18:36..until the day we took Mary Jameson's baby.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38..two...three...

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Perhaps I'll try the back door.
0:19:39 > 0:19:44Mrs Theodora Mawsley, the local doctor's wife
0:19:44 > 0:19:48and something of a busybody, eagerly volunteered to take up
0:19:48 > 0:19:53the matter of Mary Jameson's baby with Charlie and Isabelle.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22Wolf?
0:21:22 > 0:21:24That's what I call it.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Pills are meant to keep him at bay, but he...
0:21:27 > 0:21:30he comes a little earlier every day.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Is there anything I can do?
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Should we stop for the day?
0:21:34 > 0:21:37No. No, no, no, he's just sniffing around.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39We mustn't encourage him.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Now...
0:21:46 > 0:21:48Miss Lea, where were we?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Erm...the doctor's wife and the violin.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56I'm desperate to know what happened next.
0:21:56 > 0:21:57Oh...
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- Surely it must have been one of the children?- No.
0:22:00 > 0:22:05No, I told you, I saw the children out on the steps on my way in.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09No, it was a woman in white.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11There's no woman in white in this house, ma'am.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15You must have seen the ghost.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17They do say Angelfield is haunted.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Dr Mawsley. I'm not sure if you remember me.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32It has been some time.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Oh, yes.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Might this be the person who attacked you?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43Yes. Yes, I think it might.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Excuse me, but could you tell me, did you do these yourself?
0:22:56 > 0:22:57Yes.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Mr Angelfield, do you mind if I have a word with you in private?
0:23:30 > 0:23:33I think it would be best not to visit her for at least a month,
0:23:33 > 0:23:37give them time to... draw some conclusions.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Oh, Mr Charlie...

0:27:56 > 0:27:59After they took Isabelle off to the asylum,
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Charlie Angelfield went completely to pieces.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Dr Mawsley arranged through the family solicitor
0:28:18 > 0:28:22to appoint a governess to look after us.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Her name was Hester Barrow.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Welcome to Angelfield.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34I'll get your bags.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50So the children never knew their father?
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Oh, no, miss, none of us did.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57I don't even think Miss Isabelle knew him very well.
0:28:57 > 0:29:02The only man she ever took any notice of was her brother Charlie.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06And when she came back here, she did everything for him...
0:29:08 > 0:29:11..if you know what I mean.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13I'm not sure I do, Mrs Dunne.
0:29:13 > 0:29:17- Well...- In any event, it's probably time I met Mr Angelfield.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20I don't know as he'll want to see you, miss.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23He's not very well in himself, like.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27He keeps to his quarters and no-one's allowed to disturb him.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29I see.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31He never was very sociable,
0:29:31 > 0:29:35but since they took Miss Isabelle away, he's hardly showed his face.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40I don't know where those children can be.
0:29:40 > 0:29:42I'll go and see if I can scare them up.
0:29:42 > 0:29:46No, no, Mrs Dunne, it's not for us to go chasing after them.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49No doubt they'll come down for their dinner.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52Well, often as not,
0:29:52 > 0:29:56they just creep down and help themselves to summat out the pantry.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Oh... I don't think we can allow that.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03We'll try the twins' room, miss,
0:30:03 > 0:30:07which is the third door along here on the left.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10It's just here...
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Shh.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20DOOR HANDLE RATTLES
0:30:21 > 0:30:26Now, come along, girls. It's time you met your new governess.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33I am sorry, Miss Barrow.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Don't you worry, Mrs Dunne, we have all the time in the world.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39I should like to explore the rest of the house.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41I'll show you around.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43No, no, you get back to your kitchen, Mrs Dunne.
0:30:43 > 0:30:45I shall get on much better on my own.
0:30:46 > 0:30:51That first afternoon, we refused to come down and meet her.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54We thought she might be discouraged and go away.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57- But she wasn't?- No!
0:30:57 > 0:31:01She was the first person who tried to take us on.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03I went to have a look at Angelfield.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Hmm. Did you?
0:31:09 > 0:31:12Did you see the ghost?
0:31:12 > 0:31:13I saw something.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15What?
0:31:15 > 0:31:17Not sure.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26Erm, you were telling me about Hester.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Yes.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31You remind me of her a bit.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33In what way?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36She was very determined and inquisitive.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40Food.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42- Food.- Hungry.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45At the end of Hester's first day at the house,
0:31:45 > 0:31:48she'd already formed a strategy
0:31:48 > 0:31:52for dealing with her as yet invisible charges.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02No keys.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17Emmeline? Adeline?
0:32:23 > 0:32:26Which one are you? Adeline or Emmeline?
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Emmeline.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34Are you hungry? Would you like some supper?
0:32:34 > 0:32:35Mmm.
0:32:35 > 0:32:38And what about your sister?
0:32:41 > 0:32:45Never mind. Let's go to the kitchen.
0:32:52 > 0:32:53Follow me.
0:32:59 > 0:33:03So, right from the start, Hester managed to drive a wedge between us.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09I can't say our education was entirely plain sailing...
0:33:13 > 0:33:16..although Emmeline continued to be pretty much of a pushover.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19CRASHING AND BANGING
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Well, a very good morning to you, Adeline.
0:33:25 > 0:33:26HE MUTTERS
0:33:26 > 0:33:28Thank you so much, John.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Very good of you to join us, I must say.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36We're starting the morning
0:33:36 > 0:33:39with a drawing of our beautiful Angelfield House.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45You're most welcome to stay down there if you're more comfortable.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Ah! Ow!
0:34:01 > 0:34:05Adeline! Adeline, this behaviour will simply not be tolerated!
0:34:05 > 0:34:08Do you hear me? Do you hear me, Adeline?
0:34:21 > 0:34:23Miss?
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Yes, Emmeline?
0:34:25 > 0:34:27Finished, miss.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34Just a minute.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55Very nice, dear.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59Oh, I don't believe you've quite finished, Adeline.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08THUNDER RUMBLES
0:35:17 > 0:35:20CHILD: 'Margaret?' GIGGLING
0:35:47 > 0:35:50MUFFLED GROANING
0:36:08 > 0:36:10Do you believe in ghosts?
0:36:12 > 0:36:13You asked me that before.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17Your answer was evasive, as I recall.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22Well, let's just say I'm beginning to.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24Oh? Why would that be?
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Anyway, Hester didn't.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32Too sensible, poor thing.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34It would have been easier for her
0:36:34 > 0:36:37if she hadn't insisted on being so rational.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42Is there really nowhere we can get hold of some decent fish?
0:36:42 > 0:36:47Well, yes, you can, if you really want to. It's a bit of a palaver.
0:36:50 > 0:36:51Emmeline?
0:36:54 > 0:36:56She's out in the garden, miss.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58I... I just saw her.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03I can hear them outside.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05DISTANT CHATTERING
0:37:11 > 0:37:14That's strange. I could have sworn...
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Was she wearing white, miss?
0:37:21 > 0:37:23Yes, she was.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26That'll be the ghost.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28Oh, don't be ridiculous, Mrs Dunne.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32It's probably just the sunlight flashing in the mirror.
0:37:32 > 0:37:36Woman in white, miss. We've all seen her.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40Well, I haven't, and I certainly don't intend to.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17SHE SHRIEKS
0:39:20 > 0:39:22DISTANT LAUGHTER
0:39:32 > 0:39:35WIND WHISTLES
0:39:36 > 0:39:39During that summer, Dr Mawsley visited
0:39:39 > 0:39:43a little more frequently than was perhaps medically necessary.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47I'm at my wits' end with Adeline.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50She's an aggressive and dangerous child.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52She hardly eats anything.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55It takes two of us to hold her down at bath-time.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58She seems impervious to any kind of human emotion.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Is she intelligent?
0:40:00 > 0:40:03It's hard to tell, given that she refuses to speak.
0:40:05 > 0:40:09Soon after I arrived, I sent off for a number of studies of twins.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Really?
0:40:11 > 0:40:13If I've understood correctly,
0:40:13 > 0:40:16what tends to happen is that certain pairs of twins
0:40:16 > 0:40:19divide up available emotions and personality traits between them.
0:40:19 > 0:40:25Thus, one being placid and passive, the other wild and violent.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27One clean, the other dirt-loving.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31Of course, you would know much more about this than I.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34Not necessarily.
0:40:34 > 0:40:35Yes.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37My wife's opinion...
0:40:39 > 0:40:42I... I do sometimes discuss my patients with my wife.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48She thinks the child may quite simply be wicked.
0:40:48 > 0:40:52I think the explanation may be a little more nuanced than that.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55No doubt. My wife is apt to take the layman's view.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01I was thinking that the situation
0:41:01 > 0:41:05does present a rare opportunity for original research.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Indeed.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11In which I would be more than happy to assist you.
0:41:14 > 0:41:15Hmm.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33DOOR BELL RINGS
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Where's Adeline?
0:41:39 > 0:41:41Back soon.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43KEY TURNS IN LOCK
0:41:52 > 0:41:55- I hate you! - Adeline, behave, please.
0:41:55 > 0:41:57ADELINE SHOUTS
0:42:00 > 0:42:04- Emmeline!- Be careful, John.
0:42:04 > 0:42:05Watch her, please.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Adeline!
0:42:07 > 0:42:09Miss Barrow, take the door.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11SHE STRAINS AND SCREAMS
0:42:11 > 0:42:13- Emmeline!- Is she in?
0:42:14 > 0:42:15Come on. Ready to go?
0:42:15 > 0:42:17Come away.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59LOUD SOBBING
0:43:05 > 0:43:06KEY TURNS IN LOCK
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Oh, my goodness, Emmeline.
0:43:26 > 0:43:28Come in. Let me show you your room.
0:43:28 > 0:43:31You'll like it, you'll have it all to yourself.
0:43:33 > 0:43:36I tell you, no good'll come of this.
0:43:49 > 0:43:50Adeline...
0:43:56 > 0:43:59And naturally there have been reports that point to some evidence...
0:43:59 > 0:44:03Hester and Dr Mawsley had become so engrossed
0:44:03 > 0:44:05in their scientific experiment
0:44:05 > 0:44:08and so relished their daily discussions
0:44:08 > 0:44:11they quite failed to notice that their patients
0:44:11 > 0:44:15were making no progress whatsoever.
0:44:22 > 0:44:27They completely ignored the only and most obvious diagnosis -
0:44:27 > 0:44:30the twins were missing each other desperately.
0:44:37 > 0:44:39Emmeline!
0:44:39 > 0:44:40Emmeline!
0:44:43 > 0:44:46There you are. Come along, it's time for your tea.
0:44:48 > 0:44:51Where have you been? I've been looking for you.
0:44:51 > 0:44:53We went down to the woods.
0:44:53 > 0:44:57- No, you should say, - "I- went down to the woods."
0:44:57 > 0:44:59I went down to the woods.
0:44:59 > 0:45:02Mm. And what did you do there?
0:45:02 > 0:45:04We picked some bluebells.
0:45:05 > 0:45:07Come on.
0:45:17 > 0:45:19Where did you put your bluebells?
0:45:22 > 0:45:26The bluebells you picked? Did you put them in the vase?
0:45:26 > 0:45:30No, we saved them for Adeline.
0:45:34 > 0:45:38Well, you correct her, you see, and she gets it right for a moment
0:45:38 > 0:45:40but then she always goes back to saying "we".
0:45:40 > 0:45:43- I'm afraid Adeline never speaks at all.- Oh, dear.
0:45:45 > 0:45:47I don't think it would be prudent
0:45:47 > 0:45:49to let her out of the house, do you?
0:45:50 > 0:45:53I say, I don't think it would be safe
0:45:53 > 0:45:55to let Adeline out of the house.
0:45:56 > 0:45:58No.
0:46:39 > 0:46:42KEY TURNS IN LOCK
0:46:45 > 0:46:48I thought we'd agreed that the rooms not immediately in use
0:46:48 > 0:46:50should be kept locked.
0:46:50 > 0:46:51Yes, that's right, miss.
0:46:51 > 0:46:54Well, just now I found the drawing-room open.
0:46:54 > 0:46:57Not a bad idea to give it a bit of an airing.
0:46:57 > 0:47:00Oh, so you opened it, did you?
0:47:00 > 0:47:02Oh, no, miss.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04I don't have the keys any more, remember?
0:47:06 > 0:47:08You've got the keys.
0:47:30 > 0:47:32THEY GIGGLE
0:47:35 > 0:47:37FRANTIC KNOCKING
0:47:39 > 0:47:42- What is it? - Why have you let Adeline out?
0:47:45 > 0:47:48Oh... Oh, that's impossible!
0:47:48 > 0:47:52I've just seen her this minute with Emmeline in...in the grounds!
0:47:52 > 0:47:53Calm down. Here.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58Adeline has been here, in this room, this past hour.
0:48:00 > 0:48:01Ever since breakfast.
0:48:01 > 0:48:03But...
0:48:08 > 0:48:09I must be going mad!
0:48:10 > 0:48:12SHE SOBS
0:48:28 > 0:48:31FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:48:41 > 0:48:44I'll thank you to leave this house immediately.
0:48:46 > 0:48:47And send John for the child.
0:48:47 > 0:48:49I can...
0:48:49 > 0:48:51I'll speak to you later.
0:49:01 > 0:49:03The next day, Hester had vanished.
0:49:05 > 0:49:08Packed her bags, slipped away, never seen again.
0:49:08 > 0:49:10- What happened to her? - I've no idea.
0:49:10 > 0:49:14The doctor had disappeared as well, so we can make an educated guess.
0:49:14 > 0:49:18Rumour was they'd disappeared to America.
0:49:18 > 0:49:22Wherever it was, I'm sure they both flourished.
0:49:22 > 0:49:27Hester was a resourceful little... THING.

0:49:31 > 0:49:33CAR DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES
0:49:33 > 0:49:35THE MISSUS: She's upstairs.
0:49:35 > 0:49:37Emmeline!
0:49:44 > 0:49:47SHE ROARS
0:49:59 > 0:50:01But why did you do that?
0:50:04 > 0:50:06I...I-I couldn't tell you.
0:50:14 > 0:50:19Over the next five or six years, in spite of strenuous efforts
0:50:19 > 0:50:24to maintain the status quo, bit by bit, everything changed.
0:50:27 > 0:50:30First, a letter came from the asylum
0:50:30 > 0:50:34saying that Isabelle had died of pneumonia.
0:50:34 > 0:50:37FLIES BUZZ
0:50:37 > 0:50:41A week or so later, we noticed that Charlie had stopped touching
0:50:41 > 0:50:45the food that The Missus had left for him.
0:50:45 > 0:50:47He'd gone.
0:50:55 > 0:50:58I had an idea where Charlie might be.
0:50:58 > 0:51:03I'd often followed him and watched what he did there with Isabelle.
0:51:29 > 0:51:31FLIES BUZZ
0:51:54 > 0:51:57I never said a word to the others.
0:52:00 > 0:52:05If Master Charlie has gone, didn't we ought to tell someone?
0:52:05 > 0:52:07No call to.
0:52:07 > 0:52:10I collect the money from the bank end of the month,
0:52:10 > 0:52:12same as always.
0:52:14 > 0:52:16And if we run short,
0:52:16 > 0:52:19I know a man that'll buy some of that wine from the cellar.
0:52:19 > 0:52:21Oh, he wouldn't like that.
0:52:24 > 0:52:28Anyroad, I better take him up his dinner.
0:52:31 > 0:52:36Of course, The Missus was suffering from some kind of dementia.
0:52:36 > 0:52:41But we drifted on pretty much as we always had.

0:56:10 > 0:56:12Yes, of course.
0:56:12 > 0:56:16Um, we were talking about what happened after The Missus died.
0:56:17 > 0:56:20John brought in a local boy to help with the garden.
0:56:20 > 0:56:22Ambrose Proctor.
0:56:23 > 0:56:25I don't see why we need him.
0:56:26 > 0:56:29He's all right.
0:56:29 > 0:56:32Keeps himself to himself. Works hard.
0:56:32 > 0:56:35Gives me a bit of time for what needs doing in the house.
0:56:38 > 0:56:41You said you were going to show me how to trim the topiary.
0:56:41 > 0:56:43Well, I will, then. Huh?
0:56:48 > 0:56:52Now, you check the safety latch first. Right?
0:56:52 > 0:56:56Right. Bit wobbly-like, against the tree.
0:56:56 > 0:56:59You need to test it before you go up it.
0:57:01 > 0:57:02Right...
0:57:03 > 0:57:05Up you go.
0:57:12 > 0:57:17Never cut into the sun or towards your own shadow, all right?
0:57:17 > 0:57:20- Yes.- And never look at the clouds.
0:57:20 > 0:57:23They keep moving, see, and they throw you out.

0:58:14 > 0:58:15Where's the ladder?
0:58:15 > 0:58:19Mr Digence took it. He's round the back, fixing the guttering.
0:58:47 > 0:58:53- Obviously somebody had tampered with the safety catch.- Who?
0:58:53 > 0:58:55We said no questions.
0:58:57 > 0:58:59After that, everything's a blur.
0:58:59 > 0:59:02But I did have the presence of mind to tell the police
0:59:02 > 0:59:04that Uncle Charlie was away.
0:59:06 > 0:59:12After the funeral, we had a meeting with the family solicitor, Mr Lomax.
0:59:12 > 0:59:15So where exactly is your uncle?
0:59:15 > 0:59:17Peru, I think.
0:59:17 > 0:59:19- Peru?- I believe so.
0:59:21 > 0:59:23And when will he be back?
0:59:23 > 0:59:26I'm not sure. Quite soon, anyway.
0:59:30 > 0:59:33You're 17 now, if I'm not mistaken.
0:59:33 > 0:59:35That's right.
0:59:35 > 0:59:39I'm just wondering what arrangements we can put in place
0:59:39 > 0:59:43to make sure that you and your sister are properly looked after.
0:59:43 > 0:59:45We're quite used to fending for ourselves.
0:59:45 > 0:59:48- Yes, but I...- My grandmother knows the house very well.
0:59:48 > 0:59:50She can look in every day, like.
1:00:02 > 1:00:06There's no need for your grandmother to trouble herself.
1:00:06 > 1:00:10Well, that's lucky, because I haven't got a grandmother.
1:00:17 > 1:00:19So, who do you think killed John?
1:00:19 > 1:00:22It certainly wasn't Emmeline, if that's what you're thinking.
1:00:22 > 1:00:26And Ambrose had no motive. Quite the contrary.
1:00:26 > 1:00:28Then...
1:00:31 > 1:00:33We agreed no questions.
1:00:34 > 1:00:36Patience, Miss Lea.
1:00:38 > 1:00:40That was that. You got away with it.
1:00:44 > 1:00:48Mr Lomax was very happy not to put himself out.
1:00:48 > 1:00:50You got away with everything.
1:00:50 > 1:00:53I can't understand why the police didn't properly investigate
1:00:53 > 1:00:55John's death after all the...
1:00:56 > 1:00:59I'll tell the story my own way, Miss Lea!
1:01:03 > 1:01:05I think that's probably enough for today.
1:01:15 > 1:01:17'We said no questions.
1:01:17 > 1:01:20'It certainly wasn't Emmeline, if that's what you're thinking.'
1:02:02 > 1:02:05CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS
1:03:00 > 1:03:02Sorry. Forgive me.
1:03:25 > 1:03:28So you're treating Emmeline as well?
1:03:30 > 1:03:32Yes. Yes, um...
1:03:32 > 1:03:35As a matter of fact, she's even more seriously ill than Miss Winter.
1:03:35 > 1:03:37Is she?
1:03:37 > 1:03:39We tried to move her to hospital a few weeks ago
1:03:39 > 1:03:42but she refused to get in the ambulance.
1:03:44 > 1:03:47Do you know if anyone's living at Angelfield?
1:03:47 > 1:03:48Why do you ask?
1:03:48 > 1:03:50Well, I know it's pretty much a ruin,
1:03:50 > 1:03:52I've been there a couple of times,
1:03:52 > 1:03:54and the first time some enormous man chased me out of the house,
1:03:54 > 1:03:56and the second time, in one of the rooms,
1:03:56 > 1:03:59there was signs of someone living there.
1:03:59 > 1:04:01He's called Aurelius Love.
1:04:01 > 1:04:05He's not quite right in the head, but he's totally harmless.
1:04:05 > 1:04:09Bit of a local character. Works with his mother in the bakery.
1:04:10 > 1:04:12Was that what you wanted to ask me about?
1:04:12 > 1:04:15Um...no, not really.
1:04:23 > 1:04:26I think Miss Winter may have confessed to committing
1:04:26 > 1:04:28a murder when she was a teenager.
1:04:28 > 1:04:32Erm, well... Well, did she or didn't she?
1:04:32 > 1:04:35I haven't got the whole story yet but somebody killed the gardener
1:04:35 > 1:04:37and I can't see who else it could have been.
1:04:37 > 1:04:40And I don't know what to do about it.
1:04:40 > 1:04:42Do you have any evidence?
1:04:45 > 1:04:47No, and even if I did...
1:04:51 > 1:04:52Hmm.
1:04:53 > 1:04:56I'm sure you're right.
1:04:56 > 1:04:58Maybe wait until you've heard more?
1:05:01 > 1:05:03Emmeline...
1:05:05 > 1:05:08Dr Clifton tells me you've been asking questions about her.
1:05:08 > 1:05:09How did you find out?
1:05:09 > 1:05:11I saw her one night in the garden,
1:05:11 > 1:05:14and eventually worked out who she was.
1:05:14 > 1:05:15I see.
1:05:15 > 1:05:18I wanted to know why she was digging in the garden
1:05:18 > 1:05:21- and what it was she kept saying all the time.- Any theories?
1:05:23 > 1:05:26Erm...I think what she's saying is, "Dead go underground."
1:05:33 > 1:05:35Very good.
1:05:35 > 1:05:37Miss Lea, you're doing very well.
1:05:37 > 1:05:40So she IS looking for someone underground?
1:05:40 > 1:05:42Who could it be? A child?
1:05:45 > 1:05:48When are you going to tell me your story, Margaret?
1:05:48 > 1:05:50I haven't got a story.
1:05:51 > 1:05:53Everybody has a story.
1:05:53 > 1:05:59If you keep it to yourself, it dies and comes back to haunt you.
1:05:59 > 1:06:01You take my word for it.
1:06:02 > 1:06:05Well, I have no intention of telling anyone my story.
1:06:10 > 1:06:14Would you mind passing me that bottle?
1:06:14 > 1:06:15Yes, of course.
1:06:19 > 1:06:21What is it?
1:06:21 > 1:06:23Liquid morphine.
1:06:28 > 1:06:30For my wolf.
1:06:40 > 1:06:42What did you say?
1:06:42 > 1:06:44CHILD: 'I said I'm sorry.
1:06:44 > 1:06:46'I was saving it specially.'
1:07:07 > 1:07:08HORN BLARES
1:07:08 > 1:07:10'It's me!'
1:07:20 > 1:07:22I want to spend more time with Emmeline
1:07:22 > 1:07:25over the next couple of days.
1:07:27 > 1:07:29I always thought of Emmeline as a twin.
1:07:29 > 1:07:32- MUFFLED ECHO:- I always thought of Emmeline as a twin.
1:07:35 > 1:07:37- MUFFLED:- There is something special about losing a twin.
1:07:37 > 1:07:40SHE SOBS
1:07:42 > 1:07:45My dear, whatever's the matter?
1:07:53 > 1:07:56I had a twin.
1:07:59 > 1:08:02- Margaret, I'm sorry. - I'm not talking to you.
1:08:02 > 1:08:04I'm not even going to walk with you.
1:08:04 > 1:08:07- I'm going over to the other side. - Don't!
1:08:07 > 1:08:09Walk by yourself.
1:08:13 > 1:08:15Please forgive me, please!
1:08:17 > 1:08:19It was all my fault.
1:08:19 > 1:08:22She'd eaten a bar of chocolate that I'd been saving
1:08:22 > 1:08:25and...I wanted to punish her.
1:08:28 > 1:08:30Oh, all right.
1:08:31 > 1:08:33Come on, then!
1:08:35 > 1:08:36Moira!
1:08:36 > 1:08:38CAR TYRES SCREECH
1:08:38 > 1:08:39MARGARET SCREAMS
1:08:47 > 1:08:50Feeling guilty doesn't do anybody any good.
1:08:53 > 1:08:55It wasn't your fault.
1:08:58 > 1:09:00My mother thought it was.
1:09:00 > 1:09:02And she never forgave me.
1:09:08 > 1:09:12I've been so lonely all these years without my sister.
1:09:19 > 1:09:21We all have our stories.
1:10:16 > 1:10:18You've been here before, haven't you?
1:10:18 > 1:10:20You're Aurelius?
1:10:20 > 1:10:23I frightened you when you came here. I didn't mean to.
1:10:23 > 1:10:26No, I... It was my fault, I panicked.
1:10:26 > 1:10:29- Look what they've done.- Yeah.
1:10:30 > 1:10:32Developers.
1:10:32 > 1:10:34Didn't you live here?
1:10:34 > 1:10:38No, I just used to camp out, like.
1:10:39 > 1:10:41I live with me mum.
1:10:44 > 1:10:46I loved this house.
1:10:49 > 1:10:51And what's going on down there?
1:10:51 > 1:10:54Oh, yeah. Funny thing.
1:10:56 > 1:10:58They found some bones.
1:10:58 > 1:11:00Skeleton.
1:11:24 > 1:11:28'She's an aggressive and dangerous child.
1:11:30 > 1:11:32'I always thought of Emmeline as a twin.
1:11:34 > 1:11:39'The twins were missing each other desperately.'
1:11:39 > 1:11:41# Ring a ring a roses
1:11:41 > 1:11:44# A pocketful of posies... #
1:11:44 > 1:11:46'Emmeline...'
1:12:18 > 1:12:20There were three of you.
1:12:22 > 1:12:24There were three of you.
1:12:24 > 1:12:28It wasn't just Adeline and Emmeline, there were three of you.
1:12:28 > 1:12:31There were police at Angelfield. They've found a body.
1:12:31 > 1:12:33- A skeleton.- Mm-hm.
1:12:35 > 1:12:38There were three of us. And now there's one of us.
1:12:40 > 1:12:42Oh, I'm sorry.
1:12:42 > 1:12:45I'm so sorry, I got carried away.
1:12:47 > 1:12:48Oh, I'm sorry.
1:13:09 > 1:13:13So, you see, there WAS a ghost at Angelfield all along.
1:13:13 > 1:13:16A ghost with no name.
1:13:18 > 1:13:20It was me.
1:13:20 > 1:13:22Like it or not, I was the ghost.
1:13:24 > 1:13:26Who was your mother?
1:13:26 > 1:13:29Oh, I've no idea.
1:13:31 > 1:13:36All I do know is that when Isabelle went away to have the twins,
1:13:36 > 1:13:39Charlie went on some kind of a rampage.
1:13:42 > 1:13:46What I do know is that I was born a few months later than the twins,
1:13:46 > 1:13:50and Charlie, God knows if it ever dawned on him...
1:13:54 > 1:13:56..was the father of us all.
1:13:58 > 1:14:01How did you get to Angelfield?
1:14:01 > 1:14:03All I know is what John The Dig told me.
1:14:03 > 1:14:05Which was what?
1:14:07 > 1:14:09He started to notice his strawberries
1:14:09 > 1:14:12and his carrots were disappearing from his vegetable garden.
1:14:12 > 1:14:14And he thought he saw
1:14:14 > 1:14:18signs of someone sleeping in the potting shed.
1:14:19 > 1:14:24Also, this someone was not properly turning off the outside tap.
1:14:41 > 1:14:43Hey, you!
1:14:45 > 1:14:47John and The Missus took me in.
1:14:47 > 1:14:49Or he did, really.
1:14:51 > 1:14:54Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
1:14:54 > 1:14:55The hair? Yes.
1:14:55 > 1:14:57Should we tell them?
1:15:02 > 1:15:06And I spent as much of the time as I could with them.
1:15:07 > 1:15:10He taught me how to read out of his seed catalogues.
1:15:17 > 1:15:20But of course Adeline never even wanted to learn to read.
1:15:21 > 1:15:22She was...?
1:15:24 > 1:15:26Genuinely dangerous, yes.
1:15:29 > 1:15:31Violence was always her first instinct.
1:15:41 > 1:15:44SHE SCREAMS
1:15:58 > 1:16:01Finally, she killed John.
1:16:01 > 1:16:03What made her do it?
1:16:07 > 1:16:10She hated him for some reason.
1:16:10 > 1:16:13She seemed to think he was responsible
1:16:13 > 1:16:16for taking her away from Emmeline that time.
1:16:16 > 1:16:22Or perhaps she was jealous of all the attention he gave me.
1:16:33 > 1:16:39He was the closest I ever had to a real parent.
1:16:39 > 1:16:41GASPS AND CLATTERING
1:16:50 > 1:16:52HE MUTTERS UNINTELLIGIBLY
1:17:04 > 1:17:09After John's death, we were alone with Ambrose.
1:17:14 > 1:17:16It's a lot harder than it looks.
1:17:16 > 1:17:19I was never easy in my mind about him.
1:17:24 > 1:17:27Don't you touch Emmeline, you hear me?
1:17:27 > 1:17:29I haven't touched Emmeline.
1:17:29 > 1:17:31Good. Well, don't.
1:17:38 > 1:17:40It's not Emmeline I wants to touch.
1:17:41 > 1:17:44Even though she's kinder than what you are.
1:17:52 > 1:17:53Why can't you be kind like Emmeline?
1:18:04 > 1:18:08'Before long it was obvious that Emmeline was pregnant
1:18:08 > 1:18:10'and I dismissed Ambrose.
1:18:16 > 1:18:21'I decided not to ask for any help with delivering the baby.'
1:18:21 > 1:18:23SCREAMING
1:18:23 > 1:18:25'I read up for it as much as I could.
1:18:26 > 1:18:29'So, I was deluded,
1:18:29 > 1:18:33'Adeline was insane and Emmeline was helpless.
1:18:37 > 1:18:40'All the same, somehow or other...'
1:18:40 > 1:18:42That's it, Emmeline, keep going.
1:18:42 > 1:18:43'..we managed.'
1:18:44 > 1:18:45BABY CRIES
1:18:46 > 1:18:50It's a boy, Emmeline. It's a boy.
1:19:06 > 1:19:09There.
1:19:14 > 1:19:16Shall I leave you to rest a while?
1:19:18 > 1:19:20No.
1:19:21 > 1:19:25I want to finish the story tonight. The wolf is at the door.
1:19:28 > 1:19:31It's time to tell you the Thirteenth Tale.
1:19:39 > 1:19:43I realised very early on how jealous Adeline was
1:19:43 > 1:19:46and how much she resented the baby.
1:20:00 > 1:20:01Please go on.
1:20:04 > 1:20:09And before long, I discovered the baby was in real danger.
1:20:49 > 1:20:54I knew I had to keep her under constant observation.
1:22:33 > 1:22:35BABY GRIZZLES
1:22:43 > 1:22:44Shh, shh...
1:23:01 > 1:23:02< SCREAMING
1:23:02 > 1:23:03Emmeline!
1:23:16 > 1:23:21Adeline, no! Emmeline! Adeline, leave her alone!
1:23:21 > 1:23:25It's the only time I've ever seen Emmeline fight back.
1:23:28 > 1:23:30The baby's safe, Emmeline! He's safe!
1:23:30 > 1:23:35Emmeline! No, Emmeline! No!
1:23:40 > 1:23:43SCREAMING ECHOES
1:24:00 > 1:24:02SIZZLING, SHE SCREAMS
1:24:06 > 1:24:08Emmeline!
1:24:11 > 1:24:14< SCREAMING CONTINUES
1:24:19 > 1:24:21SCREAMING ECHOES
1:24:43 > 1:24:45- You saved the baby's life.- Yes.
1:24:48 > 1:24:51I left the baby
1:24:51 > 1:24:56outside the cottage belonging to the baker's widow, Mrs Love.
1:24:59 > 1:25:03Everybody knew she had a kind heart.
1:25:03 > 1:25:05- Aurelius Love.- Yes.
1:25:06 > 1:25:09He turned out to be a bit simple, but warm-hearted...
1:25:10 > 1:25:12..like his mother.
1:25:22 > 1:25:24When I got back to the house,
1:25:24 > 1:25:31of course, everyone assumed...I was Adeline.
1:25:38 > 1:25:42When we started, Margaret, I told you this was a story about twins.
1:25:42 > 1:25:45What I didn't tell you was that I wasn't one of them.
1:25:46 > 1:25:49Oh, I longed to be,
1:25:49 > 1:25:53but they always kept me out.
1:25:53 > 1:25:54So I stayed outside.
1:25:57 > 1:25:59That's what made me a writer.
1:26:06 > 1:26:08You lost your twin, Margaret.
1:26:12 > 1:26:16Margaret... Oh, that was terrible.
1:26:18 > 1:26:20But you had her with you for a while.
1:26:23 > 1:26:24She's always with me.
1:26:27 > 1:26:28I envy you.
1:26:37 > 1:26:39Oh, I'm so tired.
1:26:47 > 1:26:50Hee-hee-hee, the wolf is in the room.
1:27:27 > 1:27:28Thank you.
1:27:30 > 1:27:31Margaret?
1:27:32 > 1:27:36I didn't want you to go before I had a chance to say goodbye.
1:27:36 > 1:27:38I'm going to stay in the area for a while,
1:27:38 > 1:27:39at least until after the funeral.
1:27:39 > 1:27:42Good. Good, well, I'll see you there.
1:27:43 > 1:27:46And then will you go back to London?
1:27:47 > 1:27:50Um, I'm not sure. I think I'll stay up here somewhere to write the book.
1:27:51 > 1:27:53I'll let you know what I decide.
