Although the council may have its political differences, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
I know that we are united in our contrition... | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Conviction. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
..that in order to tackle the issues laid out in the... | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
Beverage sounds a bit pompous. Can't I just say drink? | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
You could, if you weren't talking about the economist | 0:00:19 | 0:00:23 | |
William Beveridge and the report which inspired the welfare state. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
So what do you think? Do I look the part? | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
It looked better on Mummy. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |
Have you finished your chores? | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
Found this under your bed. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
Silly me. I've been looking everywhere for that. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
You only ever wear pearls. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
It's a leaving present. For Matilda. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
She handed in her notice last week. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
You never said. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:58 | |
Why would I? It's got nothing to do with you. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
She's been working for you for six years. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
And hands in her notice right after taking a fortnight's holiday. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:06 | |
What was it doing under our bed? | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
Must have fallen out of my pocket. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
Why isn't it in a box? | 0:01:11 | 0:01:12 | |
Will you stop asking questions? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
No, no, not south-facing, the goldfish will overheat. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:01 | |
Well, don't just stand there. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
Have you forgotten the mayor will be gracing us | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
with his presence in less than an hour? | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
How can we forget when you remind us every five minute? | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
I hope that humbug in your mouth is not one you've counted already. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
What do you take me for? | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
What have we got here? | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
Faworki. Polish pastry. We call it angel hair. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
Tentacles of Leviathan, more like. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
You see, that's what you get when you support exotic causes, Father. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:35 | |
Polish primary school, indeed! | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
Father, do you know this mayor? | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
No, but his wife's quite charming. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
-Does a lot for charity. -Oh. -Exceptionally clever woman. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
When he will start building school? | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
We're only at the fundraising stage. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
But the men from his office measured the whole camp. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
So? How many? | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
How many humbugs in the jar? | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
SHE SIGHS | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
Morning, Matilda. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
Mr Mayor. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
You're fired, by the way. As of tomorrow. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
Why she couldn't just dress up as a princess like other girls her age. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:41 | |
You know I can't award you first prize. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
I have to give it to an orphan, | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
or some other unfortunate. Will you make enquiries? | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
How was your holiday? | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
Yes, good, thank you, yes. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
Margate. Lovely. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
Aren't you going to open it? | 0:04:01 | 0:04:02 | |
A token of my appreciation for all your hard work. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
I don't think she likes it. I can't say I blame her. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
It's very cheap and tacky. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
Really? And again? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
Very beautiful dress, Lady Felicia. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:38 | |
Oh, would you mind? | 0:04:38 | 0:04:39 | |
Very expensive. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
Thank you so much. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:52 | |
Your estate borders the Polish camp, doesn't it? | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
Quite possibly. Our estate's rather sprawling. Why do you ask? | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
-Father. -Ah. Edwin, isn't it? | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
That's a waste of money. There'll be no school. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 | |
So what time's the mayor arriving? Will he be giving a speech? | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
May I remind you, today is a family day, not a political rally. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:18 | |
Father, we should be at the gates by now. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
The mayor will be here any minute. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:21 | |
Oh, and I thought you might like to present this to his lady wife. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:25 | |
-I made it myself. -Quite exquisite. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
Even if the apostrophe's in the wrong place. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
What do you mean, there'll be no school? | 0:05:35 | 0:05:38 | |
Ask the mayor. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:39 | |
I don't know why you bother with make-up. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
You can't improve on perfection. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
Don't even think about coming to me for a reference. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:59 | |
What? | 0:05:59 | 0:06:00 | |
Lord knows, you'll never be pretty, Kathleen, but if you smile | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
from time to time, you might look less like the spawn of Satan. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:09 | |
Your father's very stressed at the moment. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
He doesn't know what he's saying. He doesn't... | 0:06:17 | 0:06:19 | |
COIN CLINKS | 0:06:33 | 0:06:34 | |
Look at that! | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
-Do you mind? -Certainly, Father. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
It's not a real rabbit. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
Can you saw people in half? | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Only little girls. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:04 | |
SHE SCREAMS | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
For goodness' sake! | 0:07:09 | 0:07:10 | |
What on earth did you say to that poor girl? | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
Nothing. It was the magician. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
Father, how much Pimm's have you had? | 0:07:20 | 0:07:22 | |
Come along, Father, they'll be here by now! | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
Father Brown! | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
Now, don't forget, it's imperative we make a good impression. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
-Eleanor, good morning. -Father Brown. -Pleased to meet you. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:42 | |
Mr Mayor, on behalf of the parish of St Mary, | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
may I say how delighted we are that you've chosen this | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
special occasion to deliver your inaugural mayoral speech. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:53 | |
And, of course, we are extremely grateful for your help | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
-in our fundraising. -Remind me, what are the proceeds going towards? | 0:07:56 | 0:08:00 | |
The primary school... | 0:08:00 | 0:08:03 | |
in a Polish resettlement camp. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:05 | |
I'm sure you're familiar with the community. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
-Not really, no. -No? | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
No, well, why would you be? | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
Kathleen, darling, come and meet the vicar. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
Priest. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:20 | |
-No matter. -Still in one piece. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
I don't believe in God. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
I do apologise. She's a spirited little madam. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
Takes after her mother. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:30 | |
An independent thinker with a questioning mind - | 0:08:31 | 0:08:35 | |
qualities I value highly. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
In a man, perhaps. Rather unbecoming in a lady, however. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
Oh. Well, follow me, please. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
Matilda, haven't seen you in Mass, lately. Are you feeling...? | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
Better, yes. Thank you. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
Really go for it. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:55 | |
BELL TINGS | 0:08:57 | 0:08:58 | |
Roll up, roll up! Goldfish, win your goldfish. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
HE GROANS | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
Fetch some help. Please! | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
Oh! | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
OK, but it'll cost you. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
You do know, most women would kill to be in your shoes. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
You must be terribly proud. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
I hope he gets everything he deserves. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
-An award-winning strawberry scone? -I don't mind if I do. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:57 | |
If you permit the observation, | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
you don't seem quite yourself today, Eleanor. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
I haven't been myself for quite some time. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
But trust me, all that's about to change. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
Father, Father! Magic man take funny turn. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
I leave him in ambulance tent but someone need to look. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
Magic man? Oh, a magician. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:24 | |
Did you book a magician? | 0:10:26 | 0:10:27 | |
Oh, whoever it is, I'll see to them. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
Now, be sure and tell the mayor everything is ready for his speech. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
Father Brown. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
-Inspector. -You might want to keep a close eye on your coffers. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
I'm afraid we've had reports of a pickpocket on the loose. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:47 | |
I've asked around. The boy dressed as a robot | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
recently lost his mother to polio. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:51 | |
Will you stop gabbling? I cannot bear the sound of your voice. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:55 | |
Looking forward to your father's big moment? | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
My mother's, more like. She's the one who should be mayor. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:10 | |
It's not fair. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:11 | |
Matilda was in the Wrens before she became a secretary. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
Why can't married women have careers? | 0:11:15 | 0:11:17 | |
-Kathleen, if you ever need a friend... -I don't. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
But if you did, my door is always open. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:25 | |
Ahem. Good morning. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
Sit up straight, darling. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:32 | |
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
Firstly, may I say what a great pleasure it is to be here | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
on such a pleasurable occasion. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
And on behalf of... | 0:11:59 | 0:12:03 | |
Kathleen? | 0:12:03 | 0:12:04 | |
..collectively, may I thank Mr Brown | 0:12:04 | 0:12:08 | |
and his team of church...people... | 0:12:08 | 0:12:12 | |
..without which, today would have been implausible. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:18 | |
My English is better than his, no? | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
With your hope, we help to build | 0:12:24 | 0:12:28 | |
a school for primary children | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
in Poland, a project which I feel, personally, | 0:12:32 | 0:12:36 | |
-extremely heartfelt about. -Hypocrite! | 0:12:36 | 0:12:39 | |
CROWD GASPS | 0:12:39 | 0:12:40 | |
Mr Mayor, I have it on good authority that you're | 0:12:40 | 0:12:45 | |
conspiring with our local MP to profit from the sale | 0:12:45 | 0:12:49 | |
of a prime piece of property in Kembleford. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:52 | |
I know this man. He courted my Polish friend. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:56 | |
Isn't it true that you recently purchased a large area | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
of agricultural land through a private company | 0:12:59 | 0:13:03 | |
registered in your wife's maiden name? | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
I don't know what he's talking about. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:07 | |
And isn't it a coincidence that the same area of land has been earmarked | 0:13:07 | 0:13:13 | |
by central government to build a new coal-fired power station, | 0:13:13 | 0:13:18 | |
information detailed in a confidential memo circulated within | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
the Ministry of Fuel and Power, | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
which our local MP leaked to you? | 0:13:25 | 0:13:29 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, please don't listen to this imbecile. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
It goes without saying that such a development would | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
exponentially increase the value of the land in question. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
Presumably, you and Mr Carlisle plan to divide the spoils between you? | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
Where could they possibly build a power station in Kembleford? | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
I am talking, of course, about the Polish resettlement camp! | 0:13:47 | 0:13:52 | |
It's just sour grapes because I was elected instead of him! | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
SPEAKS ANGRILY IN POLISH | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
It's hardly surprising. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:01 | |
Who wants a mayor who grew up on a pig farm? | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
BOOING | 0:14:04 | 0:14:05 | |
Only pigs want pigs to represent them! | 0:14:05 | 0:14:08 | |
-I've heard enough. -You, sir! | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
Are you a pig, sir? Oink, oink! | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
BOOING | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
Why don't you ask him why he withdrew from the elections, eh? | 0:14:14 | 0:14:18 | |
Don't buy a pig in a poke. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:21 | |
He's the one with the dirty secret. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
He's the one peddling porky pies. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
If you really want the truth, I'll give you the truth! | 0:14:27 | 0:14:29 | |
HE CRIES OUT | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
LADY FELICIA SCREAMS | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
Ego te absolvo ab omnibus censuris, et peccatis... | 0:14:42 | 0:14:47 | |
We saw everyone leaving. What's happened? | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
Is he dead? | 0:14:57 | 0:14:58 | |
I'm terribly sorry. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
Is it true, what he say? | 0:15:00 | 0:15:01 | |
Is government planning to throw us out from our homes? | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
Susie, please. A man is dead. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:07 | |
A husband and a father. Now is not the time. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
Mummy? | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
I'm thirsty. Are you thirsty? | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
Let's get something to drink. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
William. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
He looks so peaceful. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
Please accept my condolences. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
I'll inform the relevant authorities. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
He's very young to have had a heart attack. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
He had a heart condition. That's why he didn't serve in the war. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:54 | |
Do you think it was the shock of that man's accusations? | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
Father? | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
Mrs McCarthy? Can I help you with...? | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
Bridget. My name is Bridget. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:21 | |
I don't understand why she act crazy. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
She not the one making homeless! | 0:16:27 | 0:16:29 | |
What happens to land when he dead? If wife don't sell, maybe... | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
No. I'm afraid it doesn't quite work like that. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
If the government want to build on the land, | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
all they need do is issue a compulsory purchase order. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
Father, I'm worried about Mrs McCarthy. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:52 | |
She's not herself. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:53 | |
Probably just shock. Strong cup of tea, plenty of sugar. | 0:16:56 | 0:17:00 | |
It's not the first time she's seen a dead body. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:02 | |
Usually, she's planning the wake while he's still warm. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:06 | |
How long's she been like this? | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
Since she see magic man in the ambulance tent. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
A stranger in town and not much of a magician, by all accounts. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:21 | |
-Why are you really here? -May I have a word? | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
I have a few questions for this gentleman, myself, first. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:29 | |
Summer fete? The great and the good in their Sunday best? | 0:17:29 | 0:17:33 | |
Then the mayor has a heart attack and everyone's distracted. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:37 | |
Rich pickings, isn't that right? | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
Father Brown! | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
I'm a bit busy at the moment. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:43 | |
Go on. Get out of here. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:48 | |
-And a very good day to you, Sergeant. -Inspector. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
It's the public address system. | 0:17:58 | 0:17:59 | |
I know exactly what it is, Inspector. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
The mayor had a burn mark on his hand and then there was that | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
strange crackling noise. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:08 | |
What, you think he was electrocuted? Suppose the system could be faulty. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:15 | |
It's been tampered with. The back's been unscrewed. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
Fresh solder. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
-This has been connected to the mains. -Father? | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
I think you better come, quickly. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:27 | |
I don't know what's come over her. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
-Hardly the behaviour of a grieving widow. -Or a guilty conscience. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:42 | |
Mrs Mayor, I wonder if there's somewhere | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
we could have a quiet word? | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
I suddenly feel a little sick. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
You were married to the man for 12 years. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
Do you not feel anything at all? | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
Matilda, is there someone who could look after Kathleen for a while? | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
I don't want that slut anywhere near my daughter. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
Fine. She's not MY child. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
Mummy, why does a policeman want to talk to you? | 0:19:02 | 0:19:06 | |
I'm sure it's nothing serious. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:07 | |
-If you could just come with me, please. -I want to stay with my mum! | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
My bag. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:12 | |
I'll be back before you know it, darling. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:16 | |
Hay fever. Makes me terribly hungry. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
I just met the magician. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:38 | |
We really should get some new chairs. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
These are riddled with woodworm. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
I thought your husband died in the trenches. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
When he didn't come home, he was presumed missing in action. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:57 | |
-Mrs McCarthy, can I just...? -This is nothing to do with you! | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
Would you please just leave me alone? | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
Mrs Mayor, how would you describe your relationship with your husband? | 0:20:26 | 0:20:30 | |
Susie has arranged for neighbours to look after Kathleen | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
-until you get home. -Thank you. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
Mrs Mayor? | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
Would you like to hear my husband's favourite joke? | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
-I'd prefer it if you just answered... -Please. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
A young boy and his father go out for a drive one day. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:47 | |
There's an accident, the car goes off a cliff. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:50 | |
The boy's rushed to hospital | 0:20:50 | 0:20:52 | |
where the surgeon almost collapses from shock, | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
says, "That's my son on the operating table." | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
That's not funny. It doesn't even make sense. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:05 | |
The surgeon is a woman. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:08 | |
Your husband felt threatened by you? | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
With good reason. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:16 | |
Intellectually. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:18 | |
I got him elected. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
We met at school. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
He was tongue-tied, awkward, he struggled academically. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:29 | |
I thought he was sweet, so I coached him through his exams, | 0:21:30 | 0:21:35 | |
through university. I wrote all his speeches. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:39 | |
I thought, together, we might make a difference. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:44 | |
And then you found out he was having an affair. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:48 | |
Where did you find this? | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
With his secretary. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:53 | |
So you wanted to punish him? | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
It opened my eyes. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
He didn't care about me. He didn't care about Kathleen. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
All that was ever going to matter to him was lining his own pockets | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
and putting us back in our place. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
And while I was foolish enough to throw my life away, | 0:22:09 | 0:22:14 | |
Kathleen still has a bright future ahead of her. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
Just as long as we were free of him. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
I see. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:22 | |
Eleanor Knight, I'm arresting you on suspicion of murder. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
Murder? | 0:22:28 | 0:22:30 | |
You're not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
Whatever you do say will be put in writing | 0:22:32 | 0:22:34 | |
and may be given in evidence. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:36 | |
I was planning to leave him, not to kill him! | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
I'm afraid I've taken a terrible liberty. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
I know you said you didn't care, | 0:22:49 | 0:22:51 | |
but one mustn't let fear stand in the way of happiness. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
Bridget Maguire, a chuisle mo chroi. | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
I'm going home now. It has been a dreadful day. | 0:23:09 | 0:23:13 | |
All I want is a chance to explain. Let me call on you this afternoon. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:20 | |
And then will you leave me alone? | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
I'll never bother you again, if that's what you want. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:27 | |
Three o'clock? | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
Your ladyship. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:39 | |
Is that really necessary? | 0:23:42 | 0:23:44 | |
It's for your own protection while I call for a car | 0:23:44 | 0:23:47 | |
to take her back to the station. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
I didn't do it. You have to believe me! | 0:23:50 | 0:23:53 | |
Did you leak the details about the power station to Edwin Bloom? | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
I thought if his corruption was exposed then we would have | 0:23:56 | 0:24:00 | |
an excuse to leave with our heads held high. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
Why? Do you think it was him? | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
Just before he died, the mayor said he had a secret. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
-Do you know what he was talking about? -No. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:13 | |
Do you know where I might find Bloom now? | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
-We arranged to meet at three o'clock this afternoon. -Where? | 0:24:16 | 0:24:19 | |
He was going to introduce me to a journalist. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
He wrote the address down on a card. It's in my bag. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
It's not mine. The murderer must have planted it. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
Nice try, but I've heard it all before. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
What if they're after the whole family? Kathleen? | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
I can take it from here, Father. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
Could Bloom have planted it in your bag when he gave you the card? | 0:24:47 | 0:24:49 | |
I said, I can take it from here. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
Hey, hey! | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
-I just wanted to thank you for believing in me. -Oh. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:04 | |
I realise it must have gone against all your instincts, | 0:25:04 | 0:25:08 | |
-as a friend. -My instincts? | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
I know, I hurt her terribly, but I was young and foolish. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:15 | |
Didn't know which side my bread was buttered on. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
You understand that, I can tell. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:21 | |
Fine filly like you, | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
bet you've known your fair share of married men. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
I write letter to House of Parliament. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
Then they have to take notice, yes? | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
"Dear sir, Mr Winston Churchill." | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
Edwin Bloom. You said your friend was courting him. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
Yes. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:58 | |
Do you happen to know why he withdrew his candidacy for mayor? | 0:25:58 | 0:26:01 | |
I think he get found out for criminal record. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
A criminal record? For what? | 0:26:04 | 0:26:05 | |
How do you spell petition? | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
P, E, T, I, T, I, O, N. Criminal record for what? | 0:26:10 | 0:26:13 | |
Yibby, jibby, GB...something. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:18 | |
Do you know what it stand for? | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
I was just passing. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:37 | |
The Earl gives me so many, | 0:26:39 | 0:26:41 | |
they've been cluttering up the house for weeks. | 0:26:41 | 0:26:44 | |
I thought someone ought to get some pleasure out of them. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
Was there something in particular you came to see me about? | 0:27:00 | 0:27:03 | |
I just wanted to check you were all right, that's all. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
Quite all right, thank you. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:11 | |
And to say sorry. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
For interfering when I shouldn't have. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:16 | |
Please don't settle for anything less than you deserve. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
You've changed your tune. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
I just don't want to see you get hurt, that's all. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
And since when have you given a flying fig about my feelings? | 0:27:27 | 0:27:31 | |
We both know you think | 0:27:31 | 0:27:33 | |
I'm a foolish old woman with ideas above my station. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:35 | |
-Well, now, hang on! -And, of course, | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
I think you're a stuck-up madam with too much time on your hands, | 0:27:37 | 0:27:41 | |
so we'll leave it at that, shall we? | 0:27:41 | 0:27:45 | |
I'll show myself out. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:48 | |
Usual, please, Norma. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
You've heard the good news then? | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
I'm not going to pretend to like the man just because he's dead. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:17 | |
-Do you play? -From time to time. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:20 | |
Might I ask where you went between leaving the fete | 0:28:29 | 0:28:32 | |
and meeting Eleanor this morning? | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
Straight-talking man, Father. I don't appreciate playing games. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:37 | |
What's this all about? | 0:28:39 | 0:28:40 | |
The mayor was murdered. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:44 | |
And you think I'm responsible? What do you take me for? | 0:28:48 | 0:28:52 | |
I'm a founding member of the Peace Pledge Union. | 0:28:52 | 0:28:55 | |
And yet you have a conviction for GBH. | 0:28:55 | 0:28:57 | |
If you must know, I punched a Nazi sympathiser after | 0:29:01 | 0:29:06 | |
he insulted my lady friend. | 0:29:06 | 0:29:08 | |
You might be interested to learn, it subsequently emerged that | 0:29:08 | 0:29:11 | |
the man in question was paid for provoking me and pressing charges, | 0:29:11 | 0:29:16 | |
by the mayor. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:18 | |
-Must have made you very angry. -Of course it made me angry. | 0:29:18 | 0:29:21 | |
Mr Bloom, where did you go after leaving the fete? | 0:29:29 | 0:29:33 | |
It's none of your business. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:34 | |
It is my business if someone innocent hangs for a crime | 0:29:34 | 0:29:37 | |
they didn't commit. | 0:29:37 | 0:29:38 | |
I went to the phone box to call a journalist friend of mine | 0:29:39 | 0:29:43 | |
to arrange a meeting with Eleanor. He'll be here shortly. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:46 | |
You can ask him yourself if you don't believe me. Or Kathleen. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:50 | |
-Kathleen? -The mayor's daughter. | 0:29:50 | 0:29:53 | |
I saw her hiding from the inspector outside the church. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:56 | |
Thank goodness you're still here. I need to speak with Kathleen. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:29 | |
I'm afraid that could be difficult. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:31 | |
Why? What's happened? | 0:30:31 | 0:30:32 | |
-Your neighbour's just reported her missing. -What? | 0:30:32 | 0:30:35 | |
She left a note saying she was going to see a friend | 0:30:35 | 0:30:37 | |
-and hasn't been seen since. -A friend? What friend? | 0:30:37 | 0:30:39 | |
She doesn't have any friends! | 0:30:39 | 0:30:41 | |
I'm sure there's a perfectly innocent explanation. | 0:30:41 | 0:30:43 | |
Mrs Knight, calm down! | 0:30:43 | 0:30:45 | |
There's a killer on the loose, my daughter is in danger. | 0:30:45 | 0:30:47 | |
Why won't anyone believe me? | 0:30:47 | 0:30:49 | |
I never meant to hurt you. | 0:30:53 | 0:30:55 | |
-But you did. -If I could go back... | 0:30:55 | 0:30:59 | |
And you can't. | 0:30:59 | 0:31:01 | |
So if that's all you have to say, Frank, I think it's best that you... | 0:31:21 | 0:31:24 | |
WALTZ MUSIC PLAYS | 0:31:24 | 0:31:27 | |
Absolutely not. | 0:31:27 | 0:31:28 | |
We danced to this on our bunnymoon. | 0:31:47 | 0:31:49 | |
18 carrots, don't you know? | 0:31:57 | 0:31:59 | |
Oh, Francis. | 0:32:06 | 0:32:08 | |
Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. | 0:32:43 | 0:32:49 | |
It's been three months since my last confession. | 0:32:49 | 0:32:51 | |
I've done something terrible. | 0:32:53 | 0:32:55 | |
It's never too late to seek forgiveness. | 0:32:56 | 0:33:00 | |
Even if...? | 0:33:00 | 0:33:02 | |
Even if what? | 0:33:02 | 0:33:03 | |
I killed my father. | 0:33:06 | 0:33:08 | |
I've changed, Bridget. Tell me it's not too late. | 0:33:13 | 0:33:17 | |
Oh, Francis! | 0:33:19 | 0:33:21 | |
So much for having changed. | 0:33:28 | 0:33:30 | |
Aye, and I can clearly see you're still a nag. | 0:33:30 | 0:33:35 | |
But I'm prepared to overlook that. | 0:33:35 | 0:33:37 | |
Why are you here? Why now? | 0:33:37 | 0:33:41 | |
Francis! | 0:33:41 | 0:33:42 | |
What are you not telling me? Francis? | 0:33:43 | 0:33:47 | |
Cirrhosis of the liver. | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
I'm dying, Bridget. | 0:33:55 | 0:33:57 | |
And she'd always make sure the house was neat and tidy | 0:34:06 | 0:34:08 | |
when he got back from work. | 0:34:08 | 0:34:10 | |
It wasn't enough, nothing was ever enough. | 0:34:10 | 0:34:14 | |
Hmm. | 0:34:14 | 0:34:16 | |
How, might I ask, exactly, did you kill your father? | 0:34:18 | 0:34:23 | |
-I prayed he would die. -Hmm. | 0:34:23 | 0:34:26 | |
Well, wishing him dead isn't exactly the same | 0:34:26 | 0:34:32 | |
as actually killing him. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:33 | |
Why were you hiding from the police this morning? | 0:34:34 | 0:34:37 | |
SCRAPE OF METAL | 0:34:39 | 0:34:41 | |
You're the pickpocket? | 0:34:43 | 0:34:44 | |
So I'd have enough money to get away. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:47 | |
Doesn't look like I'll need to anymore. | 0:34:48 | 0:34:51 | |
Will I go to prison? | 0:34:51 | 0:34:53 | |
I don't think we need to involve the police at this point. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:56 | |
I'll see the contents are returned to their rightful owners. | 0:34:56 | 0:34:59 | |
Where did you get that? | 0:34:59 | 0:35:01 | |
Matilda's hair-curler. | 0:35:05 | 0:35:07 | |
I pinched it from her bag when she went to call an ambulance. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:11 | |
-I don't know if it's worth much. -May I see it? | 0:35:11 | 0:35:13 | |
Probably hoping to impress my dad. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:22 | |
I think she was actually in love with him. | 0:35:22 | 0:35:24 | |
Earlier, you said that Matilda had served in the Wrens. | 0:35:24 | 0:35:27 | |
Do you know what she did in the Navy? | 0:35:27 | 0:35:29 | |
Something to do with submarines and building engine wires, maybe. | 0:35:29 | 0:35:33 | |
She was an electrician. | 0:35:33 | 0:35:36 | |
You can ask her yourself if you're quick. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:38 | |
I saw her packing her car on my way here. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:40 | |
Said she was going on holiday. Again. | 0:35:42 | 0:35:45 | |
Father? | 0:35:49 | 0:35:51 | |
Father Brown! | 0:35:53 | 0:35:54 | |
Blast it. | 0:35:57 | 0:35:59 | |
Yours, I believe. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:13 | |
Used to solder the mains supply to the microphone jack | 0:36:15 | 0:36:17 | |
before you electrocuted the mayor. | 0:36:17 | 0:36:19 | |
I don't know what you're talking about. | 0:36:19 | 0:36:21 | |
Did he break it off? After Eleanor found out about your affair? | 0:36:21 | 0:36:25 | |
Is that why you planted the screwdriver in her bag? | 0:36:25 | 0:36:28 | |
-If you don't mind, I've got a train to catch. -She'll be hung! | 0:36:28 | 0:36:31 | |
And Kathleen will be an orphan. | 0:36:31 | 0:36:33 | |
Get out of my way! | 0:36:35 | 0:36:37 | |
Get out of my way! | 0:36:41 | 0:36:43 | |
So, how long? | 0:36:59 | 0:37:01 | |
A year, if I'm lucky. | 0:37:02 | 0:37:04 | |
I always told you you'd drink yourself to death. | 0:37:05 | 0:37:08 | |
-You told me a lot of things. -And it serves you right... | 0:37:08 | 0:37:13 | |
-..running off with that floozy. -I'm not proud of myself. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:17 | |
But I wasn't the same man that came back from the Front. | 0:37:18 | 0:37:21 | |
The things I'd seen. | 0:37:21 | 0:37:22 | |
Well, I didn't want to talk about them but you, you... | 0:37:23 | 0:37:26 | |
asked too many questions. Cared a bit too much. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:29 | |
So I found comfort in the arms of someone who didn't care much at all. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:33 | |
And where is she now? | 0:37:35 | 0:37:37 | |
Fled to the hills as soon as the going got tough. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:40 | |
Didn't want to play nurse. | 0:37:41 | 0:37:43 | |
And you think I do? | 0:37:45 | 0:37:46 | |
You're a good woman. Try hard not to show it, but... | 0:37:48 | 0:37:51 | |
..I know you still love me. | 0:37:53 | 0:37:55 | |
Maybe this is our time. Maybe it's supposed to be like this. | 0:37:56 | 0:38:00 | |
You and me. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:02 | |
We need each other. We're both lonely. | 0:38:02 | 0:38:06 | |
I mean, what kind of life is this for you? Parish secretary? Ha! | 0:38:07 | 0:38:12 | |
Oh, come on, you must be bored out of your mind. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:16 | |
And who've you got for company? | 0:38:16 | 0:38:17 | |
An infantile priest and a hoity-toity ice-queen? | 0:38:17 | 0:38:20 | |
If you are talking about Lady Felicia, I'll have you know, | 0:38:23 | 0:38:27 | |
she is compassionate and cultured and witty and intelligent! | 0:38:27 | 0:38:32 | |
And a far better companion than you could ever hope to be! | 0:38:32 | 0:38:35 | |
And... Now, I think I'd like you to leave. | 0:38:38 | 0:38:41 | |
You don't mean that. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
Goodbye, Frank. | 0:38:58 | 0:39:00 | |
I knew what we were doing was wrong, | 0:39:29 | 0:39:33 | |
but I'm not like Eleanor. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:34 | |
When I walk into a room, I don't turn heads. | 0:39:35 | 0:39:39 | |
I know I was weak, but... | 0:39:41 | 0:39:44 | |
He made you feel special. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:46 | |
For a while. | 0:39:48 | 0:39:49 | |
Until I fell pregnant. | 0:39:50 | 0:39:52 | |
I realised then, he was never going to leave her. | 0:39:55 | 0:39:57 | |
That it was all a lie. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:02 | |
And the baby? | 0:40:02 | 0:40:03 | |
He told me to get rid of it. | 0:40:05 | 0:40:07 | |
Gave me the address of a backstreet butcher. | 0:40:08 | 0:40:12 | |
Saint Matilda. | 0:40:19 | 0:40:20 | |
My mother gave me this on my confirmation. | 0:40:20 | 0:40:23 | |
I remember reaching for it just before I lost consciousness. | 0:40:24 | 0:40:28 | |
When I couldn't find it, I knew | 0:40:30 | 0:40:32 | |
something dreadful was going to happen. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:34 | |
Saint Matilda's the patron saint of large families. | 0:40:36 | 0:40:39 | |
Now, I'm never going to have children. | 0:40:41 | 0:40:43 | |
I have nothing left to lose. | 0:40:45 | 0:40:47 | |
I'm so sorry. | 0:40:49 | 0:40:51 | |
No-one would have found out if your secretary hadn't | 0:40:54 | 0:40:58 | |
walked in before I could put the screws back. | 0:40:58 | 0:41:01 | |
And Eleanor? | 0:41:05 | 0:41:07 | |
When I saw her bag unattended by the stall, | 0:41:07 | 0:41:11 | |
the way she just carried on as if nothing had happened, | 0:41:11 | 0:41:14 | |
when my whole world was falling apart! | 0:41:14 | 0:41:17 | |
But now I'm going straight to Hell, I'll be stuck with him for ever. | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
God forgives all those who repent. | 0:41:24 | 0:41:27 | |
Mr Knight never had a chance. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:29 | |
But you do. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:30 | |
No, it's too late. | 0:41:31 | 0:41:33 | |
For William, perhaps. But not for Eleanor. | 0:41:33 | 0:41:37 | |
You can save her from the scaffold. | 0:41:37 | 0:41:39 | |
You can give her and Kathleen their lives back, | 0:41:40 | 0:41:42 | |
if you tell the police the truth. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:45 | |
Will you tell the truth, Matilda? | 0:41:48 | 0:41:50 | |
Mummy! | 0:42:01 | 0:42:03 | |
I could have done that. | 0:42:21 | 0:42:23 | |
You too old. Give me the boxes when finish unpacking. | 0:42:24 | 0:42:29 | |
We go live in them. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:30 | |
Ah! You're both here! Marvellous. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:33 | |
I leave you to it. Not in a mood for party. | 0:42:33 | 0:42:35 | |
I've just come back from the town hall. | 0:42:36 | 0:42:39 | |
So? | 0:42:39 | 0:42:40 | |
In order for the power station to go ahead, the government need | 0:42:40 | 0:42:43 | |
access to the river and railway. | 0:42:43 | 0:42:44 | |
Unfortunately for them, there's another stretch of land | 0:42:44 | 0:42:47 | |
between the Polish camp and the station, which they don't own. | 0:42:47 | 0:42:50 | |
So who does the land belong to? | 0:42:51 | 0:42:54 | |
Me. | 0:42:54 | 0:42:55 | |
And, having spoken to my husband, who has Polish family, | 0:42:55 | 0:42:58 | |
I can confirm, we won't be selling at any price. And what's more, | 0:42:58 | 0:43:03 | |
given his high-profile connections in Westminster, | 0:43:03 | 0:43:05 | |
no-one would dare put any pressure on him to do otherwise. | 0:43:05 | 0:43:08 | |
Oh! | 0:43:08 | 0:43:09 | |
Mind my dress. | 0:43:11 | 0:43:13 | |
We go drink at camp? | 0:43:13 | 0:43:14 | |
Well, perhaps a small glass. | 0:43:14 | 0:43:17 | |
Will Mrs McCarthy join us? | 0:43:18 | 0:43:20 | |
Ah. I'm not sure Mrs McCarthy has much cause to celebrate. | 0:43:20 | 0:43:24 | |
Oh, Father. Whatever it is, can it wait until tomorrow? | 0:43:42 | 0:43:46 | |
Not without eating. | 0:43:46 | 0:43:48 | |
If you're talking about my strawberry scones, | 0:43:48 | 0:43:51 | |
I think you've had your fair share already today. | 0:43:51 | 0:43:53 | |
I was thinking more about plankton. Or worms. | 0:43:53 | 0:43:57 | |
I thought, perhaps, he could do with some company. | 0:44:00 | 0:44:03 | |
And if I remember correctly, your kitchen faces north. | 0:44:03 | 0:44:06 | |
So it does. | 0:44:07 | 0:44:09 | |
