0:00:02 > 0:00:04Mrs Reilly's ghost! In the woods!
0:00:04 > 0:00:07She's brought her sister's baby home with her for a while
0:00:07 > 0:00:08to give Sarah some respite.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Don't get up. I just wanted to see how you got on with those books.
0:00:11 > 0:00:12Shouldn't have troubled yourself, ma'am!
0:00:12 > 0:00:15It's been deceit from start to finish with you.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17You are on your own, Wickham, I'm finished with it.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19Denny. Don't be a bloody fool.
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Wickham?
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Denny! I killed him!
0:00:23 > 0:00:26There's a sad inevitability to the way George Wickham has ended up.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28Hardcastle will want alibis from everyone.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30We were all together last night, of course.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33Except for you, Colonel, and your night-time excursion.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38At the present time, our one suspect is yourself.
0:00:38 > 0:00:39Why would I kill him?!
0:00:39 > 0:00:42I'm taking him into custody and charging him with the crime.
0:00:42 > 0:00:47Prepare yourself, Darcy. If he's found guilty, you know the outcome.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19FITZWILLIAM GIGGLES
0:02:08 > 0:02:09VOICES OUTSIDE
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Who's a naughty soldier, then?
0:02:18 > 0:02:19That's my soldier there.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Madam.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Mr Darcy's late this morning?
0:02:23 > 0:02:26He has already been in, madam. I thought you knew.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Did Daddy come and see you this morning?
0:02:40 > 0:02:42The ladies are still settled, I hope?
0:02:42 > 0:02:44All is calm. Your ministrations were quite effective.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Excellent. Well, if you're sure I'm no longer needed...
0:02:48 > 0:02:52You have many calls on your time. I'm grateful for your attendance.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Sister Reynolds. Have you seen Mr Darcy?
0:02:54 > 0:02:56No, madam.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Er... Can you gather all the servants in the ballroom
0:02:58 > 0:03:00as quickly as possible. Of course.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03And not a word about what's happened, we must try to maintain absolute calm.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Oh, my goodness, is this what Derbyshire is like?
0:03:07 > 0:03:08Is it?
0:03:08 > 0:03:12Poor Denny shot at and dearest Lydia nearly murdered in the woods.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Calm yourself, madam. I don't know what to make of it all.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16I've fine daughters...
0:03:16 > 0:03:17Thank you.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20..thank goodness, four of them found husbands, even poor Mary,
0:03:20 > 0:03:23who I was always worried about, she takes after my husband's side
0:03:23 > 0:03:25when it comes to looks! Mother, please...
0:03:25 > 0:03:28I heard footsteps, Lizzy, on the gravel, all through the night!
0:03:28 > 0:03:30It was only the constables, all is well.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34It doesn't seem well to me. Oh... Oh, my heart.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38No-one cares about my poor nerves, I always suffer in silence.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Oh, thank goodness! Thank goodness!
0:03:41 > 0:03:44There were new symptoms overnight, doctor! I really don't know what to make of them,
0:03:44 > 0:03:47but I did manage to write them down...
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Look. Oh, what foresight, Mrs Bennet.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Come with me, come with me...
0:03:51 > 0:03:52Oh, Lizzy.
0:03:52 > 0:03:53CHATTER
0:04:06 > 0:04:07Er... Ahem.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12Um... Ahem!
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Look, can wait a minute, please?
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Can I have your attention?
0:04:20 > 0:04:21LIDS CLANG
0:04:21 > 0:04:24Please! Thank you.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29The ball...is cancelled.
0:04:29 > 0:04:30GASPS
0:04:30 > 0:04:32CHATTER
0:04:37 > 0:04:39DOOR UNLOCKS AND OPENS
0:04:40 > 0:04:41KEYS JANGLE
0:04:56 > 0:04:59God, what a mess! How could you let this happen?!
0:05:01 > 0:05:04I haven't done anything wrong!
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Anyway, I'm the one who's stuck in this stinking jail cell!
0:05:08 > 0:05:12Keep your mouth shut, Wickham, the less you say about any of this the better!
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Better for me?
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Or...better for you?
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Are you threatening me, sir?
0:05:22 > 0:05:25I was merely pointing out that we depend on one another
0:05:25 > 0:05:27rather more than we did yesterday.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I'll remind you of who I am!
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Thank Darcy for his generosity to my jailers,
0:05:34 > 0:05:36but he'll need to dig a little deeper, though.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39I want a better room!
0:05:40 > 0:05:42This is more than you deserve.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Darcy was always so mean with his wealth.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51Mean! Do you realise what is at stake here?!
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Darcy could lose his good name over this scandal!
0:05:53 > 0:05:56And who knows what the repercussions for Pemberley could be,
0:05:56 > 0:05:59or for the hundreds of souls who depend on it?!
0:05:59 > 0:06:00And all because of you!
0:06:02 > 0:06:04I didn't realise how important I am.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06How wonderful of you to let me know!
0:06:06 > 0:06:07God, I could...!
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Kill me?
0:06:09 > 0:06:14We both have reasons to keep quiet, don't we, Colonel, eh?
0:06:21 > 0:06:26In the meantime, you and Darcy will do all you can to get me
0:06:26 > 0:06:27out of here.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Oh, and order me some proper food, would you?
0:06:35 > 0:06:36None of this muck!
0:06:51 > 0:06:53CHATTER
0:06:56 > 0:06:58MAN: Come along now, don't dawdle.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59Take your places, quick as you can.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01You should have a clean apron...
0:07:03 > 0:07:04CHATTER
0:07:06 > 0:07:09We shouldn't have been down those woods, I told you, Joan!
0:07:09 > 0:07:11MAN: He was arrested. MAN 2: That's what I heard.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Wait until Mr Darcy has addressed you.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32Thank you, everyone, for gathering so promptly.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35It is my sad duty to inform you all,
0:07:35 > 0:07:37that death came to Pemberley last night.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41The victim, one Captain Denny, has been removed from the premises.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42He was not known at Pemberley,
0:07:42 > 0:07:46and our deepest condolences are now with his family and friends.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53If any of you have any information, please do come forward.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Sir Selwyn Hardcastle, who may be familiar to some of you,
0:07:56 > 0:07:59will be interviewing you all individually today.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01No-one is suspected.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06So please answer his questions as simply and honestly as possible.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08That's all.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14We would like to thank you all for the many hours you've spent
0:08:14 > 0:08:16preparing for the Lady Anne Ball.
0:08:16 > 0:08:22It is the great regret of Mr Darcy and myself that it should be in vain, and for so tragic a reason.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27We rely, as always, on mutual support
0:08:27 > 0:08:31and devotion that is at the heart of our lives here at Pemberley.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Have no fear for your safety, or for the future.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Pemberley has weathered many a storm in its long history,
0:08:36 > 0:08:38and this one, too, will pass.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Thank you.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Back to work!
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Did you hear that?!
0:08:46 > 0:08:48MAN: You heard Mrs Reynolds, back to work.
0:08:59 > 0:09:00Did you see him?
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Well?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06The man is an ungrateful wretch.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07No news there.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11Darcy...
0:09:13 > 0:09:18I know this situation entails difficulties for you which
0:09:18 > 0:09:20few can understand.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24If there is any way in which I can help...
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Thank you, cousin. That won't be necessary.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50MUSIC ECHOES
0:09:53 > 0:09:56MAN: I must say, this year's ball is livelier than I thought...
0:09:56 > 0:09:58ECHOING LAUGHTER
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Have you met the new Mrs Darcy?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03No, but I'm told she has fine eyes!
0:10:03 > 0:10:05They must be fine indeed.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09I hear her father's estate is worth barely two thousand a year!
0:10:09 > 0:10:10Goodness. There's worse!
0:10:10 > 0:10:14Her younger sister's married George Wickham, no less,
0:10:14 > 0:10:17and in circumstances best not mentioned!
0:10:17 > 0:10:20I wonder if Darcy's regretting his choice of bride?!
0:10:20 > 0:10:22LAUGHTER ECHOES
0:10:35 > 0:10:38I must send out a letter to our guests cancelling this evening.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41No doubt it'll make many a day.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Oh, everyone will be so disappointed!
0:10:44 > 0:10:47There's only one thing people like more than a good dance,
0:10:47 > 0:10:48and that's a good scandal.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49There's no scandal here.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Everything we do now has to send out a signal that
0:10:54 > 0:10:56life at Pemberley carries on as it always has.
0:10:56 > 0:10:57Yes. Of course.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Well, I can do something! I need to help.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04I hardly think... Perhaps Georgiana and I could do this together?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08Yes! And if Henry delivers the letters people will be far less likely to ask awkward questions!
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Henry might be an appropriate errand boy, but I hardly think Georgiana is!
0:11:11 > 0:11:13I think she should leave Pemberley immediately
0:11:13 > 0:11:16and put as much distance as possible between herself and this affair.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Yes, the Colonel's right, you should be away.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20I'll write and suggest she goes to Rosings.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I don't want to go to Rosings! I know it's not her favourite place, but I'm sure...
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Surely Miss Georgiana can speak for herself!
0:11:26 > 0:11:28You don't have to be a disciple of Miss Wollstonecraft to
0:11:28 > 0:11:31believe women should have a voice in matters that concern them!
0:11:31 > 0:11:35For God's sake, save the diatribe for the Old Bailey! Gentlemen, please!
0:11:36 > 0:11:38We must try to temper ourselves.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Please don't send me away.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43My place is here, with you and Elizabeth and little Fitzwilliam!
0:11:43 > 0:11:45To support you all in a time of crisis,
0:11:45 > 0:11:47surely there's no wrong in that?
0:11:47 > 0:11:51If you feel that strongly, then, yes, of course you must stay.
0:11:55 > 0:12:00I apologise, sir, I spoke out of turn.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Make your apology to the Colonel, not to me.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Please excuse me.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I shall be glad of your help.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Sir Selwyn, some breakfast? No time.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33I shall need to interview everyone today - your guests too, I'm afraid.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Is that really necessary? We were all together last night.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Except for Colonel Fitzwilliam,
0:12:38 > 0:12:41whom I hear took it into his head to go out alone.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Colonel Fitzwilliam is my cousin. I've known him since I was a boy!
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Then he's told you where he went?
0:12:49 > 0:12:50I don't need to know.
0:12:52 > 0:12:57A solitary excursion so late in the evening - it's strange,
0:12:57 > 0:12:58you'll admit.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Stranger still is the way the victim behaved.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02We know from the driver that they were in the darkest
0:13:02 > 0:13:06part of the woodland when the coach was ordered to stop.
0:13:06 > 0:13:11Wickham's plan to trespass the ball was ill-mannered, to be sure,
0:13:11 > 0:13:15but for Denny to be so provoked that he'd abandon the safety
0:13:15 > 0:13:18of the carriage and plunge into woods he was unfamiliar with...
0:13:20 > 0:13:21It doesn't make sense.
0:13:32 > 0:13:37Were Captain Denny and your husband quarrelling inside the carriage?
0:13:37 > 0:13:40They weren't talking at all, it was so dull of them!
0:13:40 > 0:13:44Do you know of any reason why they might have been angry with
0:13:44 > 0:13:45one another?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Possibly, yes.
0:13:48 > 0:13:49Go on.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57I have often wondered, well -
0:13:57 > 0:13:59if Captain Denny was secretly in love with me.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02It would made Wickham so cross!
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Lydia's always looked just like I did as a girl!
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Did Captain Denny ever declare himself?
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Of course not!
0:14:14 > 0:14:21Do you ever receive any indications of interest from him? Looks? Sighs?
0:14:21 > 0:14:26No, he always treated me with the greatest indifference,
0:14:26 > 0:14:28and avoided me at every possible chance.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32There you have it! It's a sign, surely?
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Of his inner torment!
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Men know so little of their own sex!
0:14:44 > 0:14:46I saw him burn the letter!
0:14:46 > 0:14:47I am sure there is a logical reason why.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51Yes, but... He made sure no-one was looking, Darcy.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Look, everything about the Colonel suggested...
0:14:56 > 0:14:57What?
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Where did he go on that ride? Elizabeth.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01I know! I know!
0:15:01 > 0:15:03I'm sure it will all be explained, it's just...
0:15:03 > 0:15:05I-I should get on.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Of course...
0:15:12 > 0:15:13MAN CLEARS THROAT
0:15:16 > 0:15:19I didn't know whether to declare myself.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24I wish Wickham would decide on his character and stick with it.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27I've never known such a fickle young man.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28First we had the simpering suitor,
0:15:28 > 0:15:32followed quickly by rascal at large, then war hero,
0:15:32 > 0:15:36and hot on its heels, the ne'er do well who can't hold down a job.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40But murderer? Really!
0:15:40 > 0:15:42The role of a lifetime.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49I sent word to your sister. She'll soon be with us!
0:15:49 > 0:15:51I'll be so glad to have Jane here!
0:15:53 > 0:15:58Look at all these civilising books, Lizzy, these solid walls.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01That's what I draw comfort from.
0:16:02 > 0:16:07Yes, it's easy to forget the chaos and darkness of nature lie so close.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Speaking of which - I was watching Lydia outside in the gardens
0:16:12 > 0:16:15a while ago, she was trying her hardest to distract
0:16:15 > 0:16:19one of the constables from the minor matter of solving a crime.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24How she simpered and strutted, oh, I wish you'd seen it, Lizzy,
0:16:24 > 0:16:27it was...it was a superb performance.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30But the man, he was quite oblivious to her, so she...
0:16:30 > 0:16:33No... Let me guess. Let me guess.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36She suddenly developed a fit of the vapours.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Fell straight into the poor fellow's arms.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42It was fortunate Dr McFee witnessed the whole thing
0:16:42 > 0:16:43and whisked her inside,
0:16:43 > 0:16:46no doubt for one of his fortifying draughts.
0:16:46 > 0:16:51I wonder what he puts in those things, I should like one myself.
0:16:58 > 0:16:59'There's no need to be nervous,'
0:16:59 > 0:17:03I just want you to describe the woman you saw in the woods.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06She looked like a soul in hell, ma'am!
0:17:07 > 0:17:11Can you remember what she was wearing? Her hair colour?
0:17:11 > 0:17:12Anything of that nature?
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Just the look in her eyes, enough to stop sleep...
0:17:15 > 0:17:16I really think, Mrs Darcy...
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Please, can you remember anything, anything at all?
0:17:21 > 0:17:25She did have a bonnet, a big one, with ribbons on it,
0:17:25 > 0:17:27green and purple, I think.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Which is odd, really, for a ghost...
0:17:32 > 0:17:34How nice, a colourful ghost for a change.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37It was Mrs Reilly, sir! I know it!
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Well, if it was Mrs Reilly, her timing's good.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Isn't she supposed to appear before a misfortune of some nature? Please...
0:17:48 > 0:17:51I do believe this was a real woman, Sir Selwyn.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55There's no need to protect my feelings, Mrs Darcy, I'm well aware of the superstition,
0:17:55 > 0:17:58and its origins in my own father's behaviour.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00No.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04I saw her myself, in the woods that day.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09In fact, she'd lost her bonnet and had returned to retrieve it.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13I saw what was done to Denny.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Believe me, this was no woman's crime.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24INDISTINCT CONVERSATION
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Your sister, Mrs Bingley, madam.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36Jane!
0:18:36 > 0:18:38How are you, Lizzy?
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Oh! All the better for seeing you.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42It must have been a terrible night for you all.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46We are well, apart from poor Lydia.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49I do worry for Georgiana.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Is Alveston still here?
0:18:51 > 0:18:54He barely leaves her side!
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Jane! I had no idea...
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Did Lizzy not tell you I'd arrived? No, I was just looking for her.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Lizzy's always been jealous of me.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Everyone knows she wanted Wickham for herself, but luckily he preferred me!
0:19:06 > 0:19:10Not that she'd ever have accepted him, he wasn't rich enough!
0:19:10 > 0:19:11Underneath all her airs and graces
0:19:11 > 0:19:13money's always been her prime concern!
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Why do you think she married Darcy?!
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Lydia, please.
0:19:18 > 0:19:19Jane, you're here!
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Oh!
0:19:22 > 0:19:24LYDIA GIGGLES
0:19:30 > 0:19:31Darcy!
0:19:33 > 0:19:34There you are.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38COLONEL FITZWILLIAM: 'Forgive me for requesting this meeting.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40'Thank you for sparing the time.'
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Please.
0:19:43 > 0:19:48I realise that I owe an explanation for my movements last night.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51It is unlike me to be anything other than straightforward,
0:19:51 > 0:19:53and so I apologise for that.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57I had a meeting with a certain lady.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00'Her name is irrelevant.'
0:20:01 > 0:20:03I don't have much time...
0:20:03 > 0:20:06'She asked for my help in a most delicate matter concerning
0:20:06 > 0:20:09'her brother, who served as an officer in my regiment.'
0:20:09 > 0:20:13I kept silent purely to protect her reputation, knowing it had
0:20:13 > 0:20:16nothing to do with the unfortunate events taking place here.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19We met at the Green Man Inn, Sir Selwyn,
0:20:19 > 0:20:22if you wish to ask them to confirm the truth of what I say.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24I already know that you were there, Colonel.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29Your lady acquaintance made quite an impression with the amount she spent.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31They were sorry to see her go.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Ask me anything you wish to know.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Your word of honour is enough.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39There is something else.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44I gave Wickham the ?30 you found.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48He wrote to me recently requesting financial assistance.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50I knew you would disapprove, Darcy, but...
0:20:52 > 0:20:56My-my godson, Robert, fought with Wickham and myself in
0:20:56 > 0:21:00the Irish campaign, and Wickham was with him when he fell.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04He risked his own life to bring Robert home,
0:21:04 > 0:21:07so his mother could say her farewells.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14For this act of bravery alone, I...I felt indebted to him.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Good. Good.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25Now that we have disproved Wickham's motive,
0:21:25 > 0:21:27surely this indicates he's innocent?
0:21:27 > 0:21:32Innocence and guilt are complex notions, Darcy.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36In any case, the jury at the inquest will decide.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50CHURCH BELLS RING
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Morning. Morning. Morning...
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Morning, morning.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58WOMAN: George Wickham's been arrested!
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Well, well, Josiah Clancy! I see your legs are suddenly moving again.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Praise the Lord.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04Morning, Reverend. Morning.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Morning, children. Morning, Minister.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10MAN: Agnes, Agnes! The Darcy's are arriving!
0:22:10 > 0:22:13Come inside, don't keep the Lord waiting.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16Morning.
0:22:24 > 0:22:25Good morning. Is it?
0:22:29 > 0:22:31MAN: That's Lydia, Wickham's wife.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36WOMAN: Look! Mrs Wickham.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39GASPS
0:22:39 > 0:22:42No, I must carry on, I insist!
0:22:42 > 0:22:44WOMAN: Oh, dear.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45MURMURED COMMENTS CONTINUE
0:23:01 > 0:23:03This is intolerable.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
0:23:10 > 0:23:13If I were a vain man,
0:23:13 > 0:23:17I'd be tempted to credit last week's sermon on the conversion of St Paul
0:23:17 > 0:23:22for this astonishing and most gratifying turn out today.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24But no.
0:23:24 > 0:23:30Knowing you all as I do, I feel sure it's the call of the Lord alone
0:23:30 > 0:23:34that has brought you rushing from your homes with such eagerness,
0:23:34 > 0:23:42even the sick...and the chronically feeble amongst you.
0:23:42 > 0:23:47I'm humbled, my friends, at this show of piety.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49And I look forward - no,
0:23:49 > 0:23:56I INSIST that this should be the first of many such Sundays to come!
0:23:58 > 0:23:59I don't think he's heard!
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Let us pray.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06We will have to remove Lydia from Pemberley as soon as we can.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09I'll take her to Highmarten with me in the morning.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12I'll bring Mrs Bennet - if you're sure Bingley can stand it.
0:24:12 > 0:24:13Of course.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14We'll have our work cut out for us,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17ensuring mother and daughter do no further damage.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21An audience limited to the local squirrels and rabbits
0:24:21 > 0:24:22will have to suffice.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Lydia. Yes. Lydia,
0:24:24 > 0:24:27why don't you come with me to Highmarten in the morning?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Lizzy, dear.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37Georgiana.
0:24:38 > 0:24:39Er...
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Circumstances make it hard to talk of one's own happiness.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Yes, I know, it doesn't seem right.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Still, I-I...
0:24:54 > 0:24:56I can't leave without at least expressing
0:24:56 > 0:25:01something to you, of my, er...hope
0:25:01 > 0:25:03- of my love...
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Er... Is there any chance that you might...?
0:25:10 > 0:25:11Yes!
0:25:13 > 0:25:14But we must wait.
0:25:16 > 0:25:17Of course.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21For now, all thoughts must be for Darcy and Elizabeth.
0:25:21 > 0:25:22Yes, of course.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28BABY CRIES
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Sh.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50We won't be long. I fear poor Will won't be up to much.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53Then I'll wait here.
0:25:58 > 0:25:59THEY LAUGH
0:26:01 > 0:26:04Is Louisa still caring for her sister's baby?
0:26:04 > 0:26:06I believe so.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Must be someone in.
0:26:29 > 0:26:34Mrs Bidwell. I'm sorry to keep you waiting! Thank you.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Mrs Bidwell, Mr Darcy and I would like to suggest that you come
0:26:37 > 0:26:39and stay at Pemberley for a time.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Dr McFee would be on hand for Will. It would take the pressure from you.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45You must've had a terrible fright out here on your own the other night.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47We're not frightened.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Of course it was terrible, what happened,
0:26:49 > 0:26:52but it was a poacher caught unawares, we're sure of it.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55He'd have no quarrel with us. And, er...
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Will wouldn't be happy away from the cottage.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02If you think best. Please, don't upset yourself.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06I'll make sure Mr Bidwell is relieved of some of his duties.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08No! You're very kind, but really
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Mr Bidwell is much happier staying busy.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13I have a book for Will.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Er... He was sick all morning, and now he's fast asleep.
0:27:16 > 0:27:22I'll call Louisa, so you can see Sarah's baby. Louisa! Louisa!
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Madam.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31What a lovely little boy!
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Oh, you must miss your mummy.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00Well, that was peculiar.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03Poor things. It's hardly surprising.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04And the baby...
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Such a sweet little thing.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08I saw Louisa nursing him, Jane.
0:28:10 > 0:28:11The baby's hers!
0:28:15 > 0:28:17Where's Darcy?
0:28:20 > 0:28:22You wait in the carriage. I'll go and find him.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Darcy?
0:28:49 > 0:28:50I didn't expect you so soon.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52What are you doing here?
0:28:52 > 0:28:53Nothing.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57A Darcy, buried out here in the woods?
0:28:57 > 0:28:58Who was he?
0:29:00 > 0:29:03A discredit. I didn't intend you should see that. Come.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17Did Darcy not tell you himself?
0:29:17 > 0:29:19He didn't wish to discuss it.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23I haven't been there since childhood.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Georgiana, please! Tell me!
0:29:30 > 0:29:33The grave is of our great grandfather.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36He brought great shame on the family.
0:29:36 > 0:29:38He was a gambler, he made reckless investments,
0:29:38 > 0:29:41Pemberley was nearly lost because of him.
0:29:41 > 0:29:43He built the cottage in the woodland
0:29:43 > 0:29:45and retreated there to live as a hermit.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Why don't I know any of this?
0:29:48 > 0:29:52He shot himself, Elizabeth! It's never discussed, ever!
0:29:53 > 0:29:57Our father took us to the grave just once, when we were children.
0:29:57 > 0:29:58I still remember his words.
0:29:59 > 0:30:03"Here lies the man who put personal inclination before public duty,
0:30:04 > 0:30:07"and nearly ruined us all."
0:30:09 > 0:30:12Father was still having to sell land as a result
0:30:12 > 0:30:15of his behaviour -
0:30:15 > 0:30:18that's how long it took to secure Pemberley again.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36I have struggled long and hard.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40I've tried in vain to quieten the feelings I have for you,
0:30:40 > 0:30:43knowing such a match would, in so many ways,
0:30:43 > 0:30:45be a dereliction of duty to my rank.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Not to speak of the connection to your family, whose status is
0:30:47 > 0:30:50so decidedly beneath my own.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Nevertheless... You come here to tell me you like me against your will,
0:30:53 > 0:30:55your reason and even your character?
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Can you not see the insult in that?
0:31:13 > 0:31:14Lizzy!
0:31:17 > 0:31:18Lizzy...
0:31:23 > 0:31:27I'm so afraid, Jane! Of what?
0:31:27 > 0:31:32Darcy regrets his match with me! You're both under great stress.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35He's been so distant!
0:31:35 > 0:31:38I keep remembering the things he said the first time he proposed -
0:31:38 > 0:31:41about our family, and his duty to his rank...
0:31:41 > 0:31:45But he changed, Lizzy! You changed him!
0:31:45 > 0:31:48Our marriage has brought George Wickham back into his life,
0:31:48 > 0:31:49and as a brother too!
0:31:49 > 0:31:52He knew that before you were wed!
0:31:52 > 0:31:54He chose you with his eyes wide open!
0:31:54 > 0:31:57I've always comforted myself with that thought. But this is different,
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Jane, Wickham is accused of murder!
0:31:59 > 0:32:01That grave in the woods today belonged to a man
0:32:01 > 0:32:04who brought shame and scandal to Pemberley generations ago!
0:32:04 > 0:32:09The same could happen again - and this time it would be my fault! Lizzy, no! No!
0:32:09 > 0:32:12It's the shock of the last few days speaking.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16When two people love each other as you do,
0:32:16 > 0:32:19they face the challenges of life together!
0:32:19 > 0:32:23You know your husband, Lizzy, as I do mine.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26He could never think a bad thought about you if he tried!
0:33:17 > 0:33:20Time and some proper sleep will put it all back into perspective.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25Thank you for being here.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28Lizzy. I know. I know. I know.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30You have to leave in the morning.
0:33:31 > 0:33:35I will be fine.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37I will.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47DISTANT SOBBING
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Do you spare any thought for the distress you've caused
0:34:01 > 0:34:02with this elopement?
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Your parents and sisters are distraught!
0:34:05 > 0:34:09Oh, not you as well?! Doesn't anybody have a sense of fun!
0:34:09 > 0:34:11I've had enough of sermons.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14I'll leave him to you, dear.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16Good luck.
0:34:26 > 0:34:27Well? Well, what?
0:34:29 > 0:34:32Do you intend to marry her?!
0:34:32 > 0:34:35The trouble is, she comes with next to nothing to her name.
0:34:35 > 0:34:39Do you realise what will happen to her if you don't?
0:34:39 > 0:34:40Her life will be ruined!
0:34:40 > 0:34:43Oh, come now, Darcy....
0:34:43 > 0:34:49You know as well as I do that a man of my...station
0:34:49 > 0:34:52has to think a little of his own advantage.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56How much of an advantage
0:34:56 > 0:34:59would be required for you to do what's honourable?
0:35:16 > 0:35:18That much...
0:35:25 > 0:35:28Spare us a.... Get back in there!
0:35:46 > 0:35:48Darcy!
0:35:48 > 0:35:51Such brotherly concern!
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Or is it being seen to be kind that brings you?
0:35:54 > 0:35:58No matter. I can't be cross...
0:35:58 > 0:36:00even with you!
0:36:00 > 0:36:02I'm glad to see prison agrees with you.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05It may prove an advantage. What, you don't believe I'll be acquitted?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08I pray for that hourly, so you'll be free to leave Pemberley
0:36:08 > 0:36:10and never return.
0:36:10 > 0:36:11Of course.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15And since I trust to the good sense of my jurors and fellow countrymen,
0:36:15 > 0:36:19the outcome will doubtless be as we both desire it.
0:36:19 > 0:36:24Look, to prove how confident I am...
0:36:24 > 0:36:26My memoirs.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28An account of the Irish campaign,
0:36:28 > 0:36:30and of the injustice of my current imprisonment.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34Do you think it'll sell? I certainly hope so, if it affords you an honest living.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38I was thinking of a likeness of myself on the fly cover,
0:36:38 > 0:36:40for the ladies.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43Perhaps you could recommend an artist?
0:36:43 > 0:36:45As for the subject of leaving,
0:36:45 > 0:36:48I'd be only too happy to oblige, but I'm not sure.
0:36:50 > 0:36:55Setting up a home and keeping a wife does cost money.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Lydia visited here yesterday.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04All she did was cry and wail
0:37:04 > 0:37:06until I had to throw her out!
0:37:06 > 0:37:10If I'd chosen freely,
0:37:10 > 0:37:14I might've settled for a less...
0:37:14 > 0:37:17demanding spouse!
0:37:19 > 0:37:22Mrs Wickham and yourself may rely on our support
0:37:22 > 0:37:24if and when you're released.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Do you remember poor Patrick Reilly?
0:37:41 > 0:37:42Better not to.
0:37:42 > 0:37:47I can't help it - I keep seeing him.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54I didn't do it, you know!
0:37:55 > 0:37:58That was one of the things I came to ask.
0:37:58 > 0:38:05I might have done some stupid things in my life - but not this.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Not this.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13I believe you.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Madam.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20Mrs Reynolds.
0:38:20 > 0:38:21Oh, Madam.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24Er... Louisa Bidwell.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Have you noticed anything unusual about her of late?
0:38:26 > 0:38:28Only that we haven't seen much of her
0:38:28 > 0:38:32since she's been looking after her sister's baby.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34Would you have a quiet word with her,
0:38:34 > 0:38:37see if there is anything she would like to confide? Of course.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39I think she may be in trouble.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41Press her a little, would you?
0:38:42 > 0:38:45Er... About young men, anything of that nature.
0:38:45 > 0:38:46I see.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15Sir Selwyn!
0:39:24 > 0:39:27If I am not mistaken, that's blood, sir.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32Better fetch Dr McFee. Yes, sir.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39There will be no visitors at Highmarten, Lydia.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42You need absolute peace and quiet. But I can't let people down.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44I have to set an example of dignity and wifely courage.
0:39:44 > 0:39:48You're right. We will organise the diary as soon as we get there.
0:39:48 > 0:39:49Thank you, Mama.
0:39:55 > 0:39:56Elizabeth!
0:39:56 > 0:39:59Colonel Fitzwilliam is returning to his regiment this afternoon.
0:39:59 > 0:40:05However, he has asked my permission to seek Georgiana's hand on his return.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08I've told him it will be her decision, of course.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11However, we would both be delighted if she were to say yes.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16SHE CLEARS HER THROAT
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Forgive me - I'm confused!
0:40:18 > 0:40:22We all three of us know Georgiana's inclination lies elsewhere.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24Her fondness for young Alveston.
0:40:24 > 0:40:29I'm aware of it. It's endearing, but no more than a passing fancy, I'm sure.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33He is from a good family, but we hardly know him, and nor does Georgiana.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35I don't think he can guarantee her the same security that our cousin can.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38Security? What of happiness?! Elizabeth!
0:40:38 > 0:40:39I'm sorry. Excuse me!
0:40:39 > 0:40:40I am so sorry.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46Elizabeth? Georgiana loves Alveston!
0:40:46 > 0:40:48She's young! No younger than I was when I met you!
0:40:48 > 0:40:51Are you implying Colonel Fitzwilliam cannot make her happy?
0:40:51 > 0:40:55I think that's true! We know him! He's a kind, decent and honourable...
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Arrogant, secretive man! Tell me, Darcy,
0:40:57 > 0:41:00is it the stability of his fortune that attracts you most?
0:41:00 > 0:41:02There's no shame in that!
0:41:02 > 0:41:07My sister's wellbeing and safety are of paramount importance to me. Love can grow with time.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10That's not how you chose! You did not defer to duty and rank,
0:41:10 > 0:41:13and yet you impose those burdens on Georgiana?
0:41:13 > 0:41:15There's a word for that, I think!
0:41:15 > 0:41:19Oh... Hypocrite? I'm sorry that's your view of me! We discussed this, Darcy! We agreed!
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Yes. And things have changed, Elizabeth.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Who knows what misfortunes lie ahead?
0:41:24 > 0:41:28If we're dragged deeper into this scandal, she may never find a husband!
0:41:28 > 0:41:31Better that than a loveless marriage! Or one made in a wave of sentimental haste!
0:41:31 > 0:41:34What's that supposed to mean?! Exactly what it says!
0:41:36 > 0:41:38I demand that you retract your consent!
0:41:38 > 0:41:41I'll do nothing of the kind!
0:41:41 > 0:41:43I will thank you to apologise to the Colonel for being so rude!
0:41:43 > 0:41:45I will do nothing of the kind!
0:42:00 > 0:42:02If you have a moment.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13I've never seen it before.
0:42:13 > 0:42:16Your first name is Fitzwilliam, I believe?
0:42:17 > 0:42:21The other possibility is Denny, but his first name was Martin.
0:42:22 > 0:42:28I take it you and Mrs Darcy no longer indulge in amorous frivolities of this kind?
0:42:30 > 0:42:32Once one has children...
0:42:32 > 0:42:34There's no evidence this was carved in love.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36It looks more like mischief-making to me.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43His name is Freddie Delancy.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46He's my sweetheart - he went to London for a few days
0:42:46 > 0:42:47and he hasn't come back!
0:42:49 > 0:42:50I've waited and waited...
0:42:52 > 0:42:57Louisa, is he also the father of your baby?
0:43:07 > 0:43:09Please don't tell my father! It would kill him!
0:43:09 > 0:43:13Of course not... Of course not, you have my word.
0:43:16 > 0:43:17I assume your mother knows?
0:43:21 > 0:43:25When we found out... she sent me to Birmingham, to my sister's.
0:43:25 > 0:43:27She has three children already,
0:43:27 > 0:43:29so it was easy to pass Georgie off as hers.
0:43:29 > 0:43:32I'm not one of those silly girls, Madam,
0:43:32 > 0:43:35who gets her head turned by a soldier only to find out
0:43:35 > 0:43:37he's run off when she's with child!
0:43:37 > 0:43:39I mean, Freddie is a soldier, with the local regiment.
0:43:39 > 0:43:44But he's different. He's sweet and kind, and he loves me, I know he does!
0:43:44 > 0:43:46I'm sure you're right.
0:43:47 > 0:43:51He went to London to borrow some money, so that me and him
0:43:51 > 0:43:54and Georgie could go away together and start a new life!
0:43:58 > 0:44:00Something terrible must've happened!
0:44:00 > 0:44:03Would you like me to enquire with the regiment?
0:44:03 > 0:44:07Oh, Madam, would you?! Freddie Delancey's his name.
0:44:07 > 0:44:09Of course.
0:44:09 > 0:44:13Run along. You've taken up quite enough of Mrs Darcy's time. Thank you!
0:44:17 > 0:44:20I hope I've done the right thing, Madam...
0:44:20 > 0:44:25Of course. Although I fear our Mr Delancey will prove to be long since gone.
0:44:27 > 0:44:31I perceived it to be a human creature, not six inches high.
0:44:32 > 0:44:35With a bow and arrow in its hands and a quiver at his...
0:44:43 > 0:44:45..quiver at his back.
0:44:47 > 0:44:49Mr Alveston, madam.
0:44:56 > 0:44:58Something wrong?
0:45:01 > 0:45:03I'm sorry, Henry,
0:45:03 > 0:45:06but I cannot receive you any more,
0:45:06 > 0:45:08or communicate with you in any way.
0:45:16 > 0:45:18May I ask...? No!
0:45:21 > 0:45:25Forgive me. Have I misunderstood you, Georgiana...?
0:45:28 > 0:45:29I'm sorry!
0:45:29 > 0:45:32Is it to do with Colonel Fitzwilliam?
0:45:32 > 0:45:35I know this situation places great pressure on you all...
0:45:35 > 0:45:38Please, Henry! My mind is made up!
0:45:45 > 0:45:48Then it only remains for me to wish you every happiness.
0:46:29 > 0:46:31Thank you.
0:46:37 > 0:46:41Elizabeth. Are you aware Alveston's been here?
0:46:41 > 0:46:42Yes. I just saw him go.
0:46:46 > 0:46:47I'm leaving for the inquest!
0:46:58 > 0:47:01Georgiana - I'm so sorry... I saw Alveston....
0:47:01 > 0:47:04I'd like to be alone. You don't have to do this! We'll find a way!
0:47:04 > 0:47:07Stop - I'm fine! This isn't what you want!
0:47:07 > 0:47:08I'm a Darcy, Elizabeth!
0:47:09 > 0:47:11This place, this family,
0:47:11 > 0:47:15was not sustained or built by people doing what they want!
0:47:15 > 0:47:17It's bigger than you or I, or any of us!
0:47:19 > 0:47:22We play our part, so it may continue after we're gone.
0:47:25 > 0:47:27I'm choosing to do this, Elizabeth!
0:47:53 > 0:47:55Stable him.
0:48:07 > 0:48:08Sir...
0:48:11 > 0:48:14I'd like to offer what help or support I'm able.
0:48:17 > 0:48:18Thank you, Alveston.
0:48:24 > 0:48:26I have some seats, Sir.
0:48:30 > 0:48:33Sir Selwyn, who's presiding today?
0:48:33 > 0:48:37I am. There is a shortage of coroners, as you know. Needs must.
0:48:38 > 0:48:39Excuse me.
0:48:43 > 0:48:44Just here.
0:48:46 > 0:48:48Sir Selwyn. Gentlemen.
0:48:53 > 0:48:56CROWD CRIES AND JEERS
0:49:04 > 0:49:06You may remove the fetters from the prisoner!
0:49:06 > 0:49:09Gentlemen of the jury, your numbers look depleted!
0:49:09 > 0:49:13Begging your pardon, Sir, I had a burial!
0:49:13 > 0:49:15I had a calving!
0:49:15 > 0:49:18I had a birth! Human, that is.
0:49:18 > 0:49:23Oh, the myriad colours of local life, represented by our jury fine and fair.
0:49:23 > 0:49:27Life, however, is not our primary concern today, but death -
0:49:27 > 0:49:30the death of Captain Martin Denny, on the night of June 14th.
0:49:30 > 0:49:34Your duty is to pronounce on the cause of this regrettable demise.
0:49:34 > 0:49:38And decide whether or not this case should proceed to trial.
0:49:38 > 0:49:40First witness, please.
0:49:40 > 0:49:41On you go, George.
0:49:41 > 0:49:44APPLAUSE AND CALLS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
0:50:03 > 0:50:05Madam, a letter from the regiment. Thank you, Stoughton.
0:50:11 > 0:50:14Oh, dear.
0:50:14 > 0:50:16Is that lunch for Mr Darcy?
0:50:16 > 0:50:19Yes, Madam. Everything you wanted is there.
0:50:19 > 0:50:22Shall I arrange for a couple of girls to deliver it now? I'll take it myself.
0:50:22 > 0:50:25Oh. Would you like me to organise somebody to accompany you? No, no, no...
0:50:25 > 0:50:29Actually, I'll take Louisa Bidwell.
0:50:29 > 0:50:30Very good.
0:50:31 > 0:50:34So when we did reach the woods... Finally...
0:50:34 > 0:50:38I had a terrible time getting Betty and Millie into... Betty and...?
0:50:38 > 0:50:40Them's me horses, Sir, Betty and Millie. LAUGHTER
0:50:40 > 0:50:44They always feel when Mrs Reilly's ghost is at large, Sir,
0:50:44 > 0:50:46This is ridiculous.
0:50:46 > 0:50:50Those creatures were bucking and rearing like nobody's business!
0:50:50 > 0:50:53I reckon they knew a death was about to take place!
0:50:53 > 0:50:57You tell 'em, George! They can smell it on the wind. It's a sixth sense!
0:50:57 > 0:50:59The facts, Mr Pratt, the facts!
0:51:00 > 0:51:05When we was about halfway through the woods, it was then that Mr Denny got out...
0:51:05 > 0:51:07He said something about... being finished...
0:51:07 > 0:51:09You're on your own, Wickham! I'm finished!
0:51:09 > 0:51:12And then Mr Wickham followed.
0:51:12 > 0:51:14Don't be a bloody fool!
0:51:14 > 0:51:15"Denny, don't be a fool," he said.
0:51:15 > 0:51:19Those were the exact words, as you remember them?
0:51:19 > 0:51:23They are. Mr Wickham disappeared after him and, well,
0:51:23 > 0:51:25I didn't know what to do, Sir, as you can imagine...
0:51:25 > 0:51:28I don't wish to imagine, I wish to be informed!
0:51:29 > 0:51:34We waited, it seemed an age but probably no more than a few minutes,
0:51:34 > 0:51:37and then we heard them - gunshots!
0:51:40 > 0:51:41At fist one, boom!
0:51:41 > 0:51:44GUNSHOT
0:51:44 > 0:51:45Come on... Come on...
0:51:45 > 0:51:48It seemed to bounce off the trees!
0:51:48 > 0:51:50Then a minute later, another!
0:51:50 > 0:51:52GUNSHOT
0:51:52 > 0:51:55The horses bolted. What with the lady screaming murder,
0:51:55 > 0:51:58it was all I could do to get Betty and Millie under control.
0:51:58 > 0:52:00Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
0:52:00 > 0:52:01Mr Pratt, you may step down.
0:52:01 > 0:52:03But sir... Could I just add...
0:52:03 > 0:52:05No, you could not, thank you!
0:52:05 > 0:52:07APPLAUSE
0:52:09 > 0:52:11Thank goodness for that.
0:52:13 > 0:52:15Mr Wickham...
0:52:17 > 0:52:19Mr Wickham, you resolutely maintain
0:52:19 > 0:52:22you played no part in Captain Denny's demise.
0:52:22 > 0:52:26Yet I have written testimony from three witnesses that
0:52:26 > 0:52:28when they found you at the scene of the crime,
0:52:28 > 0:52:34you clearly said "you killed him and it was all your fault".
0:52:38 > 0:52:42Captain Denny was disgusted that I would take my wife to a ball
0:52:42 > 0:52:44that she had not been invited too.
0:52:44 > 0:52:48Liar... Quiet! Let the man speak.
0:52:48 > 0:52:50Thank you.
0:52:50 > 0:52:56I felt that if I hadn't been drinking, I could've prevented him
0:52:56 > 0:53:01from jumping from the carriage into the woods to meet his aggressor.
0:53:03 > 0:53:06So why, in your opinion did he run into the thick of the woods
0:53:06 > 0:53:10with no lamp, at dusk instead of staying on the path?
0:53:11 > 0:53:14I don't know. He was angry...
0:53:14 > 0:53:15Was he frightened of you?
0:53:15 > 0:53:19Of course not. That is absurd!
0:53:21 > 0:53:22Frank Stirling.
0:53:22 > 0:53:26No inquest would be complete without a question from you. What is it?
0:53:26 > 0:53:31We're to understand Sir, that, er, unlike his wife,
0:53:31 > 0:53:35Mr Wickham would never have been admitted to Pemberley, ball or no ball.
0:53:35 > 0:53:39What relevance are social invitations to the matter at hand?
0:53:39 > 0:53:41This could turn to you, sir.
0:53:41 > 0:53:42Only this.
0:53:42 > 0:53:46It's a powerful strange thing for a man to forbid his house to
0:53:46 > 0:53:50a brother, unless that brother be prone to violence of some kind.
0:53:54 > 0:53:58Perhaps Mr Darcy can throw some light upon the question?
0:54:02 > 0:54:04I have never known Mr Wickham to be a violent man.
0:54:06 > 0:54:09He has always been a peaceable and socially affable man,
0:54:09 > 0:54:11and such is his reputation.
0:54:13 > 0:54:14Thank you, Mr Darcy.
0:54:17 > 0:54:20Thank you, Mr Wickham. You may sit.
0:54:23 > 0:54:26Dr McFee.
0:54:30 > 0:54:36Dr McFee, you examined the large stone that was found covered in blood.
0:54:36 > 0:54:38What stone? Not fifty yards from the site
0:54:38 > 0:54:41Mr Wickham was discovered with Captain Denny's body.
0:54:42 > 0:54:46Could it in your opinion have been used as a murder weapon?
0:54:46 > 0:54:48Well...
0:54:48 > 0:54:52The weight and shape of it are consistent with the victim's injuries, Sir,
0:54:52 > 0:54:54so it could have been, yes!
0:54:54 > 0:54:57I dragged Denny's body through the woods to get him to safety!
0:54:57 > 0:54:59There was probably blood everywhere!
0:54:59 > 0:55:03But then you have never been on a battlefield, have you, Doctor?
0:55:04 > 0:55:08Mr Wickham... Please.
0:55:08 > 0:55:10Sir.
0:55:10 > 0:55:12Dr McFee, thank you.
0:55:18 > 0:55:21I suggest the jury retire, preferably not to the bar,
0:55:21 > 0:55:23and consider their verdict.
0:55:44 > 0:55:46Louisa.
0:55:49 > 0:55:51I had a reply from the local regiment.
0:55:53 > 0:55:56They've never heard of a Freddie Delancey.
0:55:58 > 0:56:00I'm so sorry.
0:56:04 > 0:56:08Thank you. I'll take this to Mr Darcy.
0:56:08 > 0:56:10Tell him I'm waiting outside.
0:56:10 > 0:56:11Louisa!
0:56:11 > 0:56:13We will keep looking for him.
0:56:19 > 0:56:21What do you think?
0:56:21 > 0:56:25Well, we must hold on to the fact that no hard evidence has been presented.
0:56:25 > 0:56:28Though it would have helped if he had been a little more contrite.
0:56:28 > 0:56:31True. The jury are coming back. Here they come.
0:56:42 > 0:56:43The Bidwell girl.
0:56:50 > 0:56:54Louisa?
0:56:56 > 0:56:58What is it?
0:56:59 > 0:57:01Freddie! Your Freddie? Where?!
0:57:01 > 0:57:03It's him! Louisa... Louisa...
0:57:03 > 0:57:07Come with me. I don't want to go in. Please.
0:57:07 > 0:57:09Mr Stirling.
0:57:09 > 0:57:13Has the jury reached a unanimous verdict?
0:57:13 > 0:57:14We have.
0:57:15 > 0:57:20We find that Captain Denny died from a blow to the back of the skull,
0:57:20 > 0:57:25and that said blow was delivered by George Wickham.
0:57:25 > 0:57:28Our verdict, therefore,
0:57:28 > 0:57:32is that Captain Denny was murdered by George Wickham.
0:57:32 > 0:57:37Mr Wickham, it's my duty to inform you that you will be
0:57:37 > 0:57:39committed for trial at the next Derby assize!
0:57:39 > 0:57:41Where is he? Tell me, Louisa...
0:57:41 > 0:57:43THIS IS MADNESS! I didn't do it!
0:57:43 > 0:57:45I will not accept the authority of this court. Freddie?
0:57:50 > 0:57:52Wickham!?
0:58:00 > 0:58:04Darcy must have nothing further to do with this sordid trial!
0:58:04 > 0:58:07Guilty of the murder whereof you stand accused or not guilty?
0:58:07 > 0:58:09Not guilty, your honour!
0:58:09 > 0:58:11She bore his child.
0:58:11 > 0:58:15If this comes up in court... It's the kind of conduct that can prejudice a jury.
0:58:15 > 0:58:18Take good care of him, Louisa. Miss Bidwell.
0:58:18 > 0:58:20Georgiana.... Cousin, don't...!
0:58:20 > 0:58:22I believe George Wickham to be guilty of this crime.
0:58:22 > 0:58:24We must believe in justice!
0:58:24 > 0:58:25Do you find the prisoner guilty...
0:58:25 > 0:58:28Lydia, Wickham has done something rather foolish. No, don't.
0:58:28 > 0:58:30..or not guilty?
