0:00:30 > 0:00:32'Handsome, clever and rich,

0:00:32 > 0:00:34'with a comfortable home and a happy disposition,

0:00:34 > 0:00:38'she seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence

0:00:38 > 0:00:40'and had lived nearly 21 years in the world

0:00:40 > 0:00:43'with very little to distress or vex her.'

0:00:46 > 0:00:48..Oh, what did you do that for?

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Well, I hope you were careful.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53He sounds like a right plonker to me.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56What are you doing hanging around with art-school dropouts anyway?

0:00:57 > 0:01:00..I don't know. Somebody with a proper job,

0:01:00 > 0:01:03someone who can pay the rent.

0:01:03 > 0:01:04I've got to go.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09'Go on, my dear, and without fear.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12'There can be no difficulties worth naming.'

0:01:12 > 0:01:16Well, it's been a bit of a morning. I have no idea what that means.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18You've got the telephone messages to do.

0:01:18 > 0:01:19Computer's just fired up.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Excuse me, we don't open till nine. It's all right, love.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25It's not. Some of us are not yet ready to start the working day.

0:01:25 > 0:01:26You'll have to wait outside.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29You didn't say that last week when Mr Chawton came in at 8.15.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Mr Chawton has dementia.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33Yeah, well, you never know.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37Why don't I deal with this? Haven't you got a meeting, Mr Bellamy?

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Never mind him. He's a bit mardy today. Right, where are we?

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Have you, um... Have you got an appointment?

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Oh.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Right. Er...

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Oh, well, let's see what we've got.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10Oh, I'm sorry. Dr Carmichael's all booked up this morning.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13But hang on - Dr Khella has got a nine o'clock.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23Oh... I'm sorry, all the appointments are gone for today.

0:02:23 > 0:02:27But I could try something for next week.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Dr Khella's very nice.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31She's a lot nicer than Dr Carmichael -

0:02:31 > 0:02:33but don't tell her I said that!

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Do you want to take a seat?

0:02:36 > 0:02:37..Please, Mrs T.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Tembe.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Mrs Tembe, look, it's got to be in by lunch time.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45I am surprised at you, Dr Clay. You are usually so well-organised.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48It was unexpected and you're much better on the keyboard than me.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50I'm still two fingers, you're a wizard.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52And the DI is going to kill me if I don't... Wh...

0:02:52 > 0:02:55The DI? This is police work?

0:02:55 > 0:02:59Well... Then I certainly cannot help you.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03Really, Dr Clay. Tying to divert me from surgery business?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05This is not worthy of you, now, is it?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Now, if you will excuse me, I have an important meeting to go to.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11Mrs Tembe... That is my last word.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15Don't look at me! PHONE RINGS

0:03:15 > 0:03:16Hiya.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20..Yeah, she's here. Yeah.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Oh, OK.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Would you like to go through? Number five.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Ooh, lower, lower. Here?

0:03:33 > 0:03:36It's stabbing. Oh! It can't be a stabbing.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38If it was stabbing you wouldn't be able to stand,

0:03:38 > 0:03:40never mind drive in to work.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42What is it with men? You've got a twinge.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44It's more than a twinge.

0:03:44 > 0:03:48I've got a patient just like you, comes in every two weeks on the dot

0:03:48 > 0:03:51with non-specific back pain, just so he can get a sick note.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Back to me. Oh, yes, sorry. There, there, poor baby.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Is that it? What do you want, a sick note?

0:03:57 > 0:03:59We are going to be late.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02Oh!

0:04:02 > 0:04:06You OK? Sorry, she can be a bit of a steamroller sometimes.

0:04:07 > 0:04:11Austen? You're in very good company here.

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Here you go.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Know where you're going? I am losing the will to live!

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Goodbye.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22RAUCOUS LAUGHTER

0:04:22 > 0:04:25LAUGHTER DROWNS SPEECH

0:04:25 > 0:04:27SHE CLEARS HER THROAT Hi. Sorry, we're just, um...

0:04:30 > 0:04:33LAUGHTER RESUMES

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Good morning, Lizzie.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47No, Lizzie, try to say the words.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56You can't even say that to me?

0:04:58 > 0:05:01You're not making much progress, are you?

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Sorry, but I'm a bit concerned.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08You tried to make an appointment with Dr Carmichael this morning.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11Is it cos you're avoiding me?

0:05:11 > 0:05:14Because she'll have seen the same note from your psychologist.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16You've not been attending your sessions.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Have you been doing your exercises, at least?

0:05:21 > 0:05:23No...look at me.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27No writing. Please, look at me.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31You can overcome this, but you have to try.

0:05:31 > 0:05:32You have to want to.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37You were doing so well a few months ago,

0:05:37 > 0:05:38after what happened to you...

0:05:38 > 0:05:40'Lizzie!'

0:05:42 > 0:05:45What? 'Where is that girl?'

0:05:45 > 0:05:46What is it?

0:05:46 > 0:05:48'Lydia, find your sister immediately.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51'The gentlemen are back from the stables!'

0:05:51 > 0:05:52Lizzie?

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Lizzie!

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Lizzie!

0:06:02 > 0:06:06Lizzie! Lizzie! Where HAVE you been?

0:06:06 > 0:06:10Mother is beside herself and the gentlemen have already arrived.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11Make haste!

0:06:13 > 0:06:17There you are! Upon my word, you DO vex me.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Disappearing into the park, doing goodness knows what.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Come here, girl.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Oh! Look at you.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Well, that'll have to do. Hurry now. Lydia!

0:06:32 > 0:06:35What have you been doing, girl? Look at your hair. Mama!

0:06:35 > 0:06:36Oh, now, where is everyone?!

0:06:41 > 0:06:43My dear Mrs Bennet.

0:06:45 > 0:06:51Cousin Elizabeth, cousin Lydia, we are all honoured, greatly honoured.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Mr Collins? It's Mr Collins.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57My patroness has deigned to pay us a visit. Who?

0:06:57 > 0:07:00Why, Lady Catherine de Bourgh herself is here. Oh, heavens!

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Wow!

0:07:01 > 0:07:05I mean, goodness! Now, do not be nervous, dear cousins.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07She is all affability and condescension.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Though, mark you, she is the sort of woman

0:07:09 > 0:07:11whom one cannot regard with too much deference.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Mr Collins, when are you to introduce us to the gentlemen?

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Patience, cousin. First,

0:07:16 > 0:07:18I must see that Lady Catherine's accommodations are adequate.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20I have sent for tea.

0:07:20 > 0:07:24Mama, do you think there will be officers at the party?

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Oh, I do not know, my dear.

0:07:26 > 0:07:31Oh, I remember the time when I liked a redcoat myself very well.

0:07:31 > 0:07:36Indeed, so I do still, in my heart.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40And if a young, smart colonel, with five or six thousand a year,

0:07:40 > 0:07:44should want one of my girls, I shall not say nay to him.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Mama!

0:07:46 > 0:07:48I wonder you look for them here, Lydia.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50There are officers enough in Meryton

0:07:50 > 0:07:53to disappoint all the young ladies in the country.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56Oh, hush child. You sound like your father. Oh! Here's the tea.

0:07:56 > 0:08:02..Yes, apparently he was thrown from his horse, fractured his skull,

0:08:02 > 0:08:05and pronounced by his surgeon to be in the most eminent danger.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09"Good God," Miss Lutterell cried.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13"Why, what in the name of heaven will become of his victuals?"

0:08:13 > 0:08:18Well, she's a fine filly, sir. Yes, she'll do, she'll do.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25What are you up to, girls? Lizzie has found the gentlemen.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29Oh, my goodness. One is in regimentals, but he's very old.

0:08:29 > 0:08:33Oh, shame! But there is a younger gentleman. Very fair.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36And handsome? Perhaps. I wonder if that's Wickham.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39Wickham? Who is Wickham? What is the point in guessing, Lizzie?

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Oh, where is Mr Collins, so as we may be introduced? Oh!

0:08:48 > 0:08:53Lady Catherine de Bourgh of Rosings Park, may I introduce Mrs Bennet,

0:08:53 > 0:08:59and my cousins, Miss Elizabeth Bennet and Miss Lydia Bennet.

0:08:59 > 0:09:04Is the tea fresh? Oh, it is newly arrived, my la... M-My lady.

0:09:07 > 0:09:08Your eldest cousin

0:09:08 > 0:09:12seems a very genteel, pretty kind of girl, Mr Collins.

0:09:12 > 0:09:17Indeed, your ladyship. It has been much observed.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20Mrs Bennet, are any of your younger daughters out?

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Yes, ma'am, all.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26All? How very odd.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30And Mr Collins tells me you are only the second.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33Your younger sister must be very young.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Lydia is not yet 16.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Perhaps she is full young to be much in company.

0:09:38 > 0:09:43But, really, ma'am, I think it would be very hard upon younger sisters

0:09:43 > 0:09:46that they should NOT have their share of society

0:09:46 > 0:09:50because the elders may not have the means or inclination to marry early.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Upon my word, you give your opinion most decidedly

0:09:55 > 0:09:57for so young a person. MEN LAUGH IN BACKGROUND

0:09:57 > 0:09:58Ah, it seems the gentlemen are...

0:09:58 > 0:10:01Is that you, Fitzwilliam? What is that you are saying?

0:10:01 > 0:10:04I must have my share of the conversation.

0:10:04 > 0:10:09My nephew, Darcy. These are the Bennets.

0:10:11 > 0:10:12Mr Collins...

0:10:14 > 0:10:19Mrs Bennet, Miss Elizabeth Bennet and Miss Lydia Bennet,

0:10:19 > 0:10:23may I present General Tilney and Mr Frank Churchill.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Frank Churchill? That isn't right.

0:10:25 > 0:10:29Now, General, you will sit next to me

0:10:29 > 0:10:31and tell us of the latest campaigns.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Move, Mr Collins.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37You can do this. Oh, Lord, here he comes.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43Miss Bennet.

0:10:43 > 0:10:44Mr Darcy.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46Are you quite well?

0:10:46 > 0:10:49I was...not expecting...

0:10:50 > 0:10:54Forgive me. How is your sister?

0:10:54 > 0:10:56You know her?

0:10:56 > 0:11:00We have never met, but I have heard of her many accomplishments.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03You have me at an advantage. She is well, thank you.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Do you mean to frighten me, Mr Darcy,

0:11:10 > 0:11:13in coming here in all this state to talk to me?

0:11:13 > 0:11:16But I will not be alarmed.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18There is a stubbornness about me

0:11:18 > 0:11:21that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others.

0:11:21 > 0:11:26My courage always rises with every attempt to intimidate me.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29That is a curious observation, Miss Bennet.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33However, I hazard you find great enjoyment in professing opinions

0:11:33 > 0:11:35which, in fact, are not your own.

0:11:39 > 0:11:40Well, yes.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42Maybe I do.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53..And Lady Catherine, what think you of her?

0:11:53 > 0:11:59For all her great grandeur, I do not think her a very sensible woman.

0:11:59 > 0:12:00"Move, Mr Collins!"

0:12:00 > 0:12:02THEY GIGGLE

0:12:02 > 0:12:07Our cousin is so completely in her thrall. More fool him, I say.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11What think you of Mr Churchill? Oh! Is he not handsome?

0:12:11 > 0:12:13A little too handsome, perhaps.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16But be careful, Lydia. I suspect he is not all that he seems.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18At least he smiles.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21Mr Darcy has such a forbidding countenance,

0:12:21 > 0:12:23it is enough to turn the milk.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Mama says he never looks at a woman except to find a blemish.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29She should not judge him on such a short acquaintance.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Oh, Lord, I am bored. LYDIA GASPS

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Do you think there will be music this evening?

0:12:34 > 0:12:36And dancing? Do you think I should ask the General?

0:12:36 > 0:12:39You're braver than I. He is so forbidding.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42..Now, Mr Darcy, how are you bearing the strain of country life? Hush.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Someone approaches. I know how heavy it weighs upon you.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47And I am quite of your opinion.

0:12:47 > 0:12:53The insipidity, and yet the self-importance of these people.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56I prefer to distract my attentions elsewhere.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Onto what, pray?

0:12:58 > 0:13:02I have been meditating on the very great pleasure

0:13:02 > 0:13:05that a pair of fine eyes in the face of a beautiful woman can bestow.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Who CAN you mean?

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Miss Bennet!

0:13:11 > 0:13:13May I introduce Miss Caroline Bingley,

0:13:13 > 0:13:15the sister of my friend George Bingley.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Miss Elizabeth, Miss Lydia.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19How very nice to make your acquaintance.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22I was just telling Darcy how...refreshing

0:13:22 > 0:13:25the countryside can be to one's spirit. Were you?

0:13:25 > 0:13:27Are you in the country long, Miss Bingley?

0:13:27 > 0:13:30That depends upon the company, Miss Bennet. I have always found...

0:13:30 > 0:13:34Mr Darcy, do you think there will be dancing this evening?

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Mama says there will, but I don't know how there can be,

0:13:37 > 0:13:39unless someone asks the General.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43Perhaps I could ask for you, my dear, as I have yet to greet him.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Come, Darcy, show me the way.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48The General and I have much to discuss.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54Lydia! How could you be so rude?

0:13:54 > 0:13:59Oh, she's of no matter to me. Look, here's Frank! Oh!

0:13:59 > 0:14:02I see you met Miss Bingley.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Oh, that I hadn't.

0:14:04 > 0:14:08She has a reputation for being remarkably sensible and clever.

0:14:08 > 0:14:12But I rather believe she derives her abilities from her rank and fortune.

0:14:12 > 0:14:17You are a wit, Mr Churchill. And the bearer of good news, I trust.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19There is to be a picnic by the mirror pool

0:14:19 > 0:14:22and I have been sent to accompany the Miss Bennets thither.

0:14:22 > 0:14:23Will Miss Bingley be there?

0:14:23 > 0:14:25I fear not. Thank the Lord!

0:14:26 > 0:14:29'Lizzie? Can you hear me?'

0:14:35 > 0:14:39Ah, here they are! Here are my girls.

0:14:39 > 0:14:43Lizzie, Lydia, you remember Mr Woodhouse and Miss Bates?

0:14:43 > 0:14:44Of course. How do you do?

0:14:44 > 0:14:48Churchill, Bates AND Woodhouse?

0:14:48 > 0:14:49OK...

0:14:51 > 0:14:53How nice to see you again.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Sit, all of you. There is fresh lemonade.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Be careful, my dears, for I fear the ground may be damp

0:14:58 > 0:15:00so close to the water.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03On such a warm day? Mr Woodhouse, you are too solicitous.

0:15:03 > 0:15:07How is your niece, Miss Bates? Dear Jane?

0:15:07 > 0:15:10I was just saying to Mr Woodhouse and Mrs Bennet

0:15:10 > 0:15:12that we are expecting her next week.

0:15:12 > 0:15:13It is such a great pleasure

0:15:13 > 0:15:17and I am sure she will be as happy to see her friends here

0:15:17 > 0:15:19as they can be to see her.

0:15:19 > 0:15:20Yes, Friday or Saturday.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23She cannot say which, because Colonel Campbell

0:15:23 > 0:15:25will be wanting the carriage himself one of those days.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28'Tis so very good of them to send her the whole way.

0:15:28 > 0:15:32But they always do, you know. Yes, Friday or Saturday next.

0:15:32 > 0:15:34That is what she writes to me about.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36That is her reason for writing "out of rule", as we call it,

0:15:36 > 0:15:38for, in the common course,

0:15:38 > 0:15:41we should not have heard from her before next Tuesday or Wednesday.

0:15:41 > 0:15:42Your mother must be delighted.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Oh, yes, she is, Mr Woodhouse,

0:15:44 > 0:15:47for Jane is to be with us three months at least.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51And she caught a bad cold, you know. Oh, poor thing.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55As long ago as June the 25th, and she has never been well since.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58That is such a long time for a cold to hang upon her.

0:15:58 > 0:16:04Indeed. She never mentioned it because she would not alarm us.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Just like her - so considerate.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10So, she thinks she had better come home

0:16:10 > 0:16:12and try an air that entirely agrees with her,

0:16:12 > 0:16:15and I am sure that three or four months with her friends

0:16:15 > 0:16:17will cure her entirely,

0:16:17 > 0:16:20and it is indeed a far better thing that she should be here

0:16:20 > 0:16:22than go to Ireland.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25As soon as she arrives, we will call Mr Perry, for he is very good

0:16:25 > 0:16:28and has been a constant source of reassurance to me.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30As he is to all.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Oh, but here is Mr Darcy. Is your friend arrived, Mr Darcy?

0:16:33 > 0:16:35She has indeed, Miss Bates.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Will she be joining us? For we are such a jolly party here.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41She is with the General, and then she has letters to write.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43Oh. In the library?

0:16:43 > 0:16:46I fear the windows do not close properly in the library, Mr Darcy.

0:16:46 > 0:16:51I pray you ensure a fire is lit, for it faces full north. I will, sir.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54Will you have lemonade? Or some cake?

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Thank you, no.

0:16:56 > 0:16:57Lord, but it is hot!

0:16:57 > 0:17:01Perhaps you should take a refreshing swim in the pool, Mr Churchill.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04We shall not mind! Lydia!

0:17:04 > 0:17:09And maybe Mr Darcy will join you. Both wet and dripping!

0:17:09 > 0:17:11That is enough, Lydia.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14Make yourself useful, girl, and hand round the strawberries.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Our companions are excessively stupid, are they not?

0:17:20 > 0:17:23What shall we do to rouse them? Any nonsense will serve.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Oh, I have a thought.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30I know this.

0:17:30 > 0:17:31We're in Emma now.

0:17:31 > 0:17:35Ladies and gentlemen, I am ordered by Miss Bennet to say

0:17:35 > 0:17:39she requires something entertaining from each of you.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43Now, she only demands either one thing very clever,

0:17:43 > 0:17:46two things moderately clever,

0:17:46 > 0:17:49or three things very dull indeed,

0:17:49 > 0:17:52and she... She engages to laugh heartily at them all.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Oh, very well, then I need not be uneasy.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Three very dull things indeed.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00That will do just for me, you know.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02I shall be sure to say three dull things

0:18:02 > 0:18:04as soon as I open my mouth, shan't I?

0:18:04 > 0:18:07Ah, ma'am, but there may be difficulty.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11Pardon me, but you will be limited as to number - only three at once?

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Ah.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Well...to be sure.

0:18:19 > 0:18:22Yes, I see what she means

0:18:22 > 0:18:25and I will do my best to hold my tongue.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29I must have made myself very disagreeable indeed

0:18:29 > 0:18:32for she would not have said such a thing to an old friend.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Miss Bennet.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57Mr Darcy, I was just... I was....

0:18:57 > 0:18:59Though we are of short acquaintance,

0:18:59 > 0:19:02I cannot let this pass without objection.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04How could you be so unfeeling to Miss Bates?

0:19:04 > 0:19:07I could not help it, and I daresay she did not understand me.

0:19:07 > 0:19:11I assure you she did. She felt your full meaning.

0:19:11 > 0:19:12I regret it, I do,

0:19:12 > 0:19:16but you must allow that what is good and what is ridiculous

0:19:16 > 0:19:18are most unfortunately blended in her.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20They are, and were she a woman of fortune,

0:19:20 > 0:19:23I would not quarrel with you for any liberties of manner.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25But she is poor, Miss Bennet.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28She has sunk from the comforts that she was born to,

0:19:28 > 0:19:32and if she lives to old age, must probably sink more.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Her situation SHOULD secure your compassion.

0:19:35 > 0:19:39And yet, in thoughtless spirits and the pride of the moment,

0:19:39 > 0:19:44you laugh at her...humble her, and before others,

0:19:44 > 0:19:47many of whom would be entirely guided by your treatment of her.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50It was badly done indeed!

0:19:50 > 0:19:53You are right, of course.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56My insensitivity led me to act in a way

0:19:56 > 0:19:59that I must always be ashamed of, Mr Darcy,

0:19:59 > 0:20:02and I regret it wholeheartedly.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05Well, then, there is nothing more to be said.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14PIANO PLAYS

0:20:14 > 0:20:17'It was to the relief of a number of the company

0:20:17 > 0:20:19'that Lady Catherine decided to retire early,

0:20:19 > 0:20:23'despite the entreaties of her own personal parson.

0:20:23 > 0:20:24'The General, too,

0:20:24 > 0:20:27'had business to discuss with the aspiring Mr Churchill

0:20:27 > 0:20:32'so it was a somewhat reduced party that gathered after dinner.'

0:20:32 > 0:20:34PIANO STOPS, CLAPPING

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Delightful, my dear. Delightful.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39Ah! Now you are returned, Mr Collins,

0:20:39 > 0:20:41you can make up a four, as promised.

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Oh, of course, of course.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44Are you going to join us, cousin Elizabeth?

0:20:44 > 0:20:46Alas, sir, I am no card player.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49And then we would be a five, which is no good at all.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51No, sit here, if you please.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54May I persuade you, Miss Bennet, to follow my example

0:20:54 > 0:20:56and take a turn about the room.

0:20:56 > 0:20:57I can assure you it is quite refreshing

0:20:57 > 0:20:59after sitting so long in one attitude.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01Yes. Very well.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Will you not join us, Mr Darcy?

0:21:09 > 0:21:11Thank you, no.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13I imagine there are at least two reasons why my joining you

0:21:13 > 0:21:15would interfere with your intentions.

0:21:15 > 0:21:20What CAN he mean? Come, come, sir. I demand an explanation.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Why, either you choose this method of passing the evening

0:21:23 > 0:21:24because you are in each other's confidence

0:21:24 > 0:21:26and have secret affairs to discuss,

0:21:26 > 0:21:28or because you are conscious

0:21:28 > 0:21:31that your figures appear to the greatest advantage when walking.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35If the first, I should be completely in your way.

0:21:35 > 0:21:40But if the second, I can admire you much better as I sit here.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Oh, shocking! I have never heard anything so abominable.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47How shall we punish him for such a speech?

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Tease him. Laugh at him.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52I could not, upon my honour.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55Shame, for I dearly love to laugh.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58The wisest and best of men may be rendered ridiculous

0:21:58 > 0:22:00by a person whose first object in life is a joke.

0:22:06 > 0:22:12There are such people, but I hope I am not one of them.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15I hope I never ridicule what is wise and good.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18Follies and nonsense do divert me, I own.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Are you immune to such things, sir?

0:22:20 > 0:22:22It's been the study of my life to avoid those weaknesses

0:22:22 > 0:22:25which often expose a strong understanding of ridicule.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28Such as vanity and pride?

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Yes, vanity is a weakness, indeed. But pride...

0:22:31 > 0:22:35Where there is real superiority of mind,

0:22:35 > 0:22:37pride will be always under good regulation.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Your examination of Mr Darcy is over, I presume.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45What, pray, is the result?

0:22:45 > 0:22:50Oh, I am perfectly convinced that Mr Darcy has no defects at all.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52I have no such pretension.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54I have faults enough,

0:22:54 > 0:22:57but they are not, I hope, of understanding.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00However, once my opinion is lost, it is lost for ever.

0:23:01 > 0:23:06That is a failing, indeed, but you have chosen your fault well.

0:23:06 > 0:23:07I cannot laugh at it.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Shall we have some more music? A song, perhaps.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Miss Bates, would you oblige me by playing?

0:23:17 > 0:23:19Oh! Me?

0:23:19 > 0:23:21Oh, well, I have never had the honour

0:23:21 > 0:23:23of playing such a noble instrument.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26But we are a four! Do not fear, Mrs Bennet,

0:23:26 > 0:23:31for I'm sure that Miss Lydia will take my hand and do better with it.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34It is not much. I, um...

0:23:34 > 0:23:36I became quite muddled by the shuffling

0:23:36 > 0:23:38and am no expert at trumping.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42Now, Miss Bingley, what... What shall I play?

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Voi Che Sapete. The music is before you. Oh, yes.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48Though, forgive me, I must polish my spectacles,

0:23:48 > 0:23:50for they are rather cloudy.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52I think perhaps because it is such a warm night.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55Rather close, don't you think? I am ready to begin, ma'am.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57Yes, yes. Yes, indeed.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00MUSIC: "Voi Che Sapete"

0:24:12 > 0:24:15SHE SINGS IN ITALIAN

0:24:35 > 0:24:36THUNDERCLAP

0:24:36 > 0:24:38Oh! My goodness!

0:24:38 > 0:24:42'Tis but thunder, Mr Woodhouse. But then a storm is coming.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45I am quite sure we are safe. These things soon pass.

0:24:45 > 0:24:46Shall we play another hand?

0:24:46 > 0:24:49Mrs Bennet, how can you think of whist at such a time as this?

0:24:49 > 0:24:50THUNDERCLAP Ah!

0:24:50 > 0:24:52'The night became quite stormy.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55'The wind had risen at intervals the whole evening

0:24:55 > 0:24:59'and by the time the party broke up, it blew and rained violently.

0:24:59 > 0:25:03'Everything seemed to speak the awfulness of her situation.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06'Her heart beat quick, but her courage did not fail her.'

0:25:06 > 0:25:09SHE GASPS Do not be alarmed, Miss Bennet.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11'Tis only a storm.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Yes, indeed.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15I am being foolish.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Unless you think the storm is a result of your presence here.

0:25:19 > 0:25:23I don't understand you, sir. Do you mock me?

0:25:23 > 0:25:24That is for you to judge.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28No. This isn't...

0:25:28 > 0:25:29THUNDERCLAP

0:25:29 > 0:25:32General...

0:25:32 > 0:25:34I know that, despite your present countenance,

0:25:34 > 0:25:37you are an honourable and charming man.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39But you would have it so, would you?

0:25:39 > 0:25:41SHE PANTS

0:25:41 > 0:25:44I don't understand what's happening. Are we in Northanger now?

0:25:44 > 0:25:49Can you not hear her? You should not be here.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51No.

0:25:51 > 0:25:57You are quite correct... for it is late and I am tired.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01If you will excuse me, General, I will retire.

0:26:36 > 0:26:37DOOR CREAKS, SHE SCREAMS

0:26:37 > 0:26:39'Can you hear me?

0:26:39 > 0:26:41'You must wake up!'

0:26:41 > 0:26:42No!

0:26:42 > 0:26:44'You must come back!' No!

0:26:46 > 0:26:48'Come back, Lizzie.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50No! 'You must come back.'

0:26:50 > 0:26:51SHE SCREAMS

0:26:51 > 0:26:54Lizzie! Lizzie, can you hear me?

0:26:54 > 0:26:56Can you wake up for me? Lizzie?

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Lizzie, come on!

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Lizzie, can you hear me?

0:27:04 > 0:27:06What the hell is going on?

0:27:06 > 0:27:08MUSIC: "Voi Che Sapete"

0:27:08 > 0:27:10I was given good principles,

0:27:10 > 0:27:14but left to follow them in pride and conceit.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17You should take it into further consideration

0:27:17 > 0:27:23that, in spite of your... manifold attractions,

0:27:23 > 0:27:25it is by no means certain

0:27:25 > 0:27:27that another offer of marriage may ever be made you.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29You do not mean Darcy?
