0:00:02 > 0:00:03Do you not want it?

0:00:03 > 0:00:05Varmint nonpareil, as they say.

0:00:05 > 0:00:08Bound for the end of the world now.

0:00:08 > 0:00:13Perhaps you, like Estella, will be extraordinary.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16- Why would- I- want to be friends with YOU?

0:00:16 > 0:00:17Thought you might be lonely.

0:00:17 > 0:00:18Missus!

0:00:19 > 0:00:23Do you not think, Pip, that Estella is beautiful?

0:00:23 > 0:00:25Pip has a fortune.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28The owner of this handsome property also desires

0:00:28 > 0:00:30that Mr Pirrip immediately go to London,

0:00:30 > 0:00:36where he is to live as a young fellow of great expectations.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45London and Inns of Court!

0:01:46 > 0:01:48- Thank you.- Sir.

0:02:02 > 0:02:03Where's Mr Jaggers' office?

0:02:03 > 0:02:07I'm first. I'm first! I've been waiting longer than anyone!

0:02:07 > 0:02:09- I'm first!- Amelia, I have told you, over and over,

0:02:09 > 0:02:11I know enough of your husband to keep him from the drop.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15I do not want to know the truth, the law does not require it!

0:02:15 > 0:02:17And you, sir, must pay Wemmick the full cost,

0:02:17 > 0:02:20only then can we discuss the mitigation of your circumstances.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22I can pay you double!

0:02:22 > 0:02:24If you'll be for my brother, I can pay you double!

0:02:24 > 0:02:25It is too late.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29I am already on the other side of the floor.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31You are against him?

0:02:31 > 0:02:32Follow.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36- Have mercy!- Mr Jaggers!- Mr Jaggers!

0:02:36 > 0:02:38CROWD CLAMOURS

0:02:57 > 0:02:58Follow.

0:03:06 > 0:03:11So the young gentleman of expectations arrives in London.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Every Friday, you and other young men of means

0:03:15 > 0:03:18for whose families I perform the function of guardian,

0:03:18 > 0:03:22will come here to receive your allowance for that week.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Are you listening?

0:03:26 > 0:03:28Yes, Mr Jaggers.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32This will continue until you come of age

0:03:32 > 0:03:34and receive your fortune,

0:03:34 > 0:03:36which you may carefully preserve for posterity

0:03:36 > 0:03:40or squander inside a calendar month.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42At that point, you may do as you will,

0:03:42 > 0:03:44because you are no longer under my charge.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Until then, you do...

0:03:47 > 0:03:48as I say.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53What's for lunch?

0:03:53 > 0:03:56A kidney pie, Mr Jaggers. The gravy is most fragrant.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Rooms have been arranged for you at Barnard's Inn,

0:04:02 > 0:04:04where you are to share with young Mr Pocket.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Herbert Pocket?

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Mr Pocket has been engaged to help habituate you to your new life.

0:04:09 > 0:04:10This can't be right.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Herbert's related to Miss Havisham and she's...

0:04:12 > 0:04:14The proviso, Pip.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18You do not discuss or speculate as to the identity

0:04:18 > 0:04:21of your benefactor until they themselves reveal their identity

0:04:21 > 0:04:23at your majority or very soon after.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24I know but...

0:04:24 > 0:04:26But nothing!

0:04:33 > 0:04:36Young Mr Pocket has been cut off from his family.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39He is Mr Wemmick's suggestion. If it proves unsatisfactory,

0:04:39 > 0:04:42we will endeavour to find someone more suitable.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Mr Wemmick will give you the first instalment of your allowance.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Be prudent with it. Do NOT fall into debt.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58HE GARGLES

0:05:04 > 0:05:05Questions?

0:05:06 > 0:05:08I wondered if Miss Havisham had told you

0:05:08 > 0:05:10when Estella might be comin' to London?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12And why would I be furnished

0:05:12 > 0:05:14with the details of that young lady's itinerary?

0:05:14 > 0:05:17- I just thought that... - Do not think, Pip.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20It never leads to anywhere edifying.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Back to the Bailey!

0:05:28 > 0:05:29DOOR CLOSES

0:05:29 > 0:05:31What's that head, Mr Wemmick?

0:05:34 > 0:05:35One lost to the drop.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37The cast taken when he was fresh down.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41Why does Mr Jaggers keep it?

0:05:42 > 0:05:44It was the man's request.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46He ended up in the common pit.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49No marker, no stone to say he'd ever existed.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52And he was one of the best at his trade until the law did for him.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55He wanted to be remembered. Jaggers honoured his final wish.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57- It's horrible.- It is his sentinel.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Memento mori.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Sign here, please.

0:06:21 > 0:06:22Mike?

0:06:23 > 0:06:28Show Mr Pip the way to Barnard's Inn and introduce him to the watchman.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32It's not Mr Pip, it's just Pip.

0:06:34 > 0:06:35It's in the proviso.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Just Pip.

0:06:37 > 0:06:38Just Pip.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55New one for you.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Put your hand in your pocket and give the man some money.

0:07:09 > 0:07:10Number two, sir.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14- STREET VENDOR:- Hot and fresh! Fresh today!

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Hot and fresh!

0:08:03 > 0:08:05I guessed it was you!

0:08:05 > 0:08:08And once Mr Jaggers had said where you were from

0:08:08 > 0:08:13and that there was a connection to Satis House, I was certain.

0:08:13 > 0:08:14You do remember me, don't you?

0:08:17 > 0:08:18I hit you.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Yes. Rather hard, if I recall.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26I'd like to apologise for my contemptible behaviour that day.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Something about that house brings out the worst in people.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32I more than asked to receive a bloody nose.

0:08:32 > 0:08:33I assure you I am a much changed man,

0:08:33 > 0:08:36though I understand if you're not comfortable.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38It's just...you knew me before.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42And...I don't want before to follow me here.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44I don't want before to follow me, either.

0:08:46 > 0:08:47Let's start again.

0:08:50 > 0:08:55Every gentleman belongs to a club and Finches is one of the best.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57I keep expecting to be turned away.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59You have every right to be here.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02They're grateful you've set foot on their carpet.

0:09:19 > 0:09:20Sorry.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Mr Jaggers said you'd been cut off? Why?

0:09:35 > 0:09:38I met a girl.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39Clara.

0:09:39 > 0:09:43And when my family found out that her family was of no significance,

0:09:43 > 0:09:45they forbade any further association.

0:09:45 > 0:09:49So I defied their judgment and am, in consequence, quite cut off.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53Not a penny. So, now, I look about me.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55- You look about you? - For employment.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58To support Clara and the many children we will have

0:09:58 > 0:10:00when I can afford for us to marry.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04In the interim, Mr Wemmick is kind enough to suggest ways in which I can make myself useful.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Your wine, sir.

0:10:09 > 0:10:10Thank you.

0:10:22 > 0:10:28Herbert, you ain't... haven't asked how I came by my good fortune.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Well, I gather there are legal conditions.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37One cannot help but draw conclusions...

0:10:38 > 0:10:41You must have made a very great impression at Satis House.

0:10:43 > 0:10:44You don't mind?

0:10:44 > 0:10:49Pip, the last person I'd like to have influence over my life is Miss Havisham.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51- But if it's what you want.- It is.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52Then I'm very happy for you.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58Put this hand on, um, on my waist.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02No, lightly, Pip. No gripping, no grasping.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05And you take the other hand, like so...

0:11:05 > 0:11:09Gently! Pip, this is not a knuckle-crushing competition.

0:11:11 > 0:11:12And...

0:11:12 > 0:11:15One, two, three.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18One, two, three. One...

0:11:18 > 0:11:20One... Foot! ..two, three.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23My foot again! ..two, three.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32One, two, three. Elbow, two, three.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Ow! Two, three.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Backwards...and forwards.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41And then you raise your left hand gracefully, like this.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Left foot, and right foot.

0:11:44 > 0:11:45And twir... Whoa!

0:11:46 > 0:11:47Maybe not quite so hard.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Twirl me.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10That was not bad at all!

0:12:12 > 0:12:14THEY LAUGH

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Take one to Mr Denby with my compliments.

0:12:20 > 0:12:21Of course, sir.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28- I want to be invited to one of his card games. - This is very expensive, Pip.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31It's a crucial part of my education. We'll be more sober next week.

0:12:31 > 0:12:32You said that last week!

0:12:32 > 0:12:36I'm supposed to be looking about me, I'm so terribly drunk.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39Try harder with your drunkenness and you won't be so terrible at it.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43You're not allowed in here. This is a gentleman's club.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45You're alive, then.

0:12:45 > 0:12:46Us was wondering.

0:12:46 > 0:12:51- Sir...- You've no call to lay 'ands on me. Tell 'em, Pip.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56There's no problem here, thank you.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59Herbert Pocket.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02Would you like to sit down, Mr...?

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Gargery.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25You take some seeking out.

0:13:27 > 0:13:32First off, went to that Jaggers.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35They told me where you was livin', went there, you weren't in,

0:13:35 > 0:13:37went back and they told me you might be here.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44I been all over the place but found you at last.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Lucky the marshes breeds us determined, eh?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Nothing to say to me, Pip?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Let's go.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15DOOR SLAMS

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Stop running now, can we?

0:14:23 > 0:14:24I wasn't running.

0:14:25 > 0:14:29You'll want coffee. I'll send for some coffee.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31Don't care about no coffee.

0:14:34 > 0:14:35I want to see you.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43You look...different.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45It's just a suit.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47You talk different.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52Not a word, Pip.

0:14:55 > 0:14:59Not one word to say you're safe, you're well.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02I've been very busy. I haven't noticed the time going by.

0:15:02 > 0:15:03Well, it has gone by.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Months have passed.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09And you is missed.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12Forge is empty, house is empty without you.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15I'm sorry, but as you can see, I'm quite well.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18Missus lives to hear from you.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20Lives for it.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25What else has she got but starin' at the wall every day?

0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Write to her.- And who would read it?

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Pumblechook could read it to her and to me both.

0:15:31 > 0:15:35He merely wants to brag about how he gave me my first opportunity.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38He's a idiot, let him brag, doesn't do you any hurt.

0:15:38 > 0:15:39Does it not?

0:15:41 > 0:15:43I will write when I am less busy.

0:15:48 > 0:15:49You're shamed.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55Shamed of home, shamed of where you come from.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Shamed of me.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01Ain't even looked at me proper.

0:16:01 > 0:16:02In the eye.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Like a man.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Joe, you don't understand.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27I understand.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28You're here, too.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31I thought it was just going to be myself and Mr Jaggers.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Oh, no, it is. I'm just waiting...

0:17:33 > 0:17:34Here she is!

0:17:37 > 0:17:39SHE CHUCKLES

0:17:39 > 0:17:43Pip, this is my fiancee, Clara. Clara, this is Pip.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45I'm very pleased to meet you at last.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48We're going to Mr Wemmick's in Walworth for our chess night.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51He has me in check, but I'm hoping Clara can get me out of it.

0:17:51 > 0:17:56Chess nights with Mr Wemmick? I didn't know you had chess nights.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01To Walworth!

0:18:01 > 0:18:05There are sausages for supper and rhubarb pie with rhubarb from my own garden

0:18:05 > 0:18:08and then, Herbert, I shall take your king in three moves.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Ah, we shall see about that, Mr Wemmick.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12I sense a humiliating defeat.

0:18:12 > 0:18:13THEY LAUGH

0:18:13 > 0:18:16Pip, Mr Jaggers is waiting for you.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Mike! Mind the shop.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20- Come on, you two!- I won't be late.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25I have some delicious hedgerow wine, Herbert.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27If you can keep clear head after THAT...

0:18:30 > 0:18:31Still no sign?

0:18:33 > 0:18:35None, Mr Jaggers.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38You're early, Pip.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42No matter, since my previous appointment has failed to appear.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Follow.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05I apologise. It's just I saw Estella's name.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Miss Havisham Senior.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10They have the same name? But I thought Estella was adopted.

0:19:10 > 0:19:14- She is.- Then how is it that they have the same name?

0:19:14 > 0:19:15I can understand the Havisham but Estella

0:19:15 > 0:19:17was surely not born with the name Estella.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20How insatiably curious you are about those two ladies.

0:19:20 > 0:19:24Curiosity is natural under the circumstances.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Curiosity killed the cat. And nature can be most brutal.

0:19:26 > 0:19:27Sit.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36This is a very kind invitation, Mr Jaggers.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38Kindness has nothing to do with it.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41I am obliged as guardian to meet with those in my care

0:19:41 > 0:19:43and send reports as to how they do.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45And what would you say of me?

0:19:48 > 0:19:50I would scarcely have known you.

0:20:00 > 0:20:01Thank you, Molly.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17You have a lot of unpaid bills.

0:20:19 > 0:20:20I don't.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22I mean, I do.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25But they're not unpaid, they're just not paid yet. But they will be.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28You have bills at your club, with your tailor,

0:20:28 > 0:20:29bills for furniture...

0:20:30 > 0:20:32A pianoforte?!

0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Yes.- Your allowance is plentiful. Be more prudent.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39Mr Jaggers, you're unfair. You say it is plentiful but it doesn't go anywhere.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42I do not recall inviting you to enter a plea of mitigation.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43But it's true.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45You have to write a report to my benefactor and she...

0:20:47 > 0:20:51My benefactor, whoever they may be, needs to know that I am making... improvements,

0:20:51 > 0:20:55that I am changing and if I stay within my allowance, I won't improve or change.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58So all my expenses are very reasonable and necessary.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Debt is debt and you are being profligate.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03I have already advocated caution

0:21:03 > 0:21:06and I am NOT in the habit of repeating myself.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09And you are very late, Mr Drummle.

0:21:09 > 0:21:10I am, aren't I?

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Mike will let you out.

0:21:24 > 0:21:25Who are you?

0:21:29 > 0:21:30I'm Pip.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Pip?

0:21:44 > 0:21:46I left my glove...

0:21:51 > 0:21:55It is time you stopped acting like a child and started behaving like a gentleman.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58There have been too many regrettable and unpleasant incidents.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00There's a threat of charges being brought.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Throw some coins at the charges and they will disappear.

0:22:03 > 0:22:06For heaven's sake, Jaggers, don't bother me with such trifles.

0:22:06 > 0:22:11You will learn to curb your excesses, Mr Drummle,

0:22:11 > 0:22:14or I will write to your father and wash my hands of you!

0:22:16 > 0:22:18I...lost my glove.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32Thank you, Molly.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40MISS HAVISHAM: 'My dear Pip,

0:22:40 > 0:22:43'I wonder if you might visit me.

0:22:43 > 0:22:49'Estella is returned and requires an escort to Richmond.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53'And I am keen to see your transformation first-hand.'

0:24:06 > 0:24:07Pip.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12How very handsome you look.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Thank you, Miss Havisham.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19I was not expecting you so soon.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23I thought you might want to visit your people.

0:24:25 > 0:24:31But of course, what was fit company for you once

0:24:31 > 0:24:32is not fit now.

0:24:34 > 0:24:35As is only right.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Here is Estella.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02Well, look at you both.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Not quite the finished articles.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08But you will be. Soon.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13And I shall be very proud.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Goodbye, Mother.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22I will write.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25And you will respond promptly.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Of course.

0:25:34 > 0:25:39Miss Havisham, if I may be so bold, your gatekeeper, Dolge Orlick.

0:25:39 > 0:25:40What of him?

0:25:40 > 0:25:42I know him.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44He is not trustworthy.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49He should not be allowed the care of a lady.

0:25:49 > 0:25:54How very vigilant you are on my behalf.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56Almost proprietorial.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00He will be dismissed and someone else found.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Miss Havisham.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18SHE BREATHES HALTINGLY

0:26:49 > 0:26:52Weren't my last words to you not to come back here?

0:26:52 > 0:26:55To forget about this house and everyone in it?

0:26:55 > 0:26:57There was a change in my circumstances.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59A very great change.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02So I can see.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11- Who do you stay with in Richmond? - A Mrs Brandley.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14She is to be my chaperone.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18One more stranger given the charge of me.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24I am happy there'll be one familiar face.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26I hope we shall be together often.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38I'm starting to despair.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40It seems every bank and insurer...

0:27:40 > 0:27:43In fact, every business in London's getting on fine without me.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46Herbert, you know if you need anything, you only have to ask.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48I want to work. I want to marry.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51At the moment, all I'm doing is proving my family right,

0:27:51 > 0:27:54that I'd never make a thing of myself without them.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58I'm sorry, Pip. I'm being very miserable.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05It's a special occasion.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07I have something to tell you.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10I've kept it to myself, but I can't any longer.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17I'm in love.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21That's very good news! Does the lady have a name?

0:28:22 > 0:28:25Estella. I'm in love with Estella.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30Well? Would you not be happy for me?

0:28:30 > 0:28:32That house...

0:28:32 > 0:28:36Does it not feel haunted to you? Poisoned, somehow?

0:28:36 > 0:28:38If Miss Havisham keeps her fiance's memory alive,

0:28:38 > 0:28:40I don't call that poison, I call that love.

0:28:40 > 0:28:41Compeyson didn't die.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44It would have been better if he had.

0:28:44 > 0:28:45He was a con man, Pip.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48He asked Miss Havisham to settle money on him.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51A great deal of money.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54And on the day of the wedding, he sent her a note.

0:28:54 > 0:28:55He was never seen again.

0:28:55 > 0:28:56He jilted her.

0:28:58 > 0:29:00And a little while after...

0:29:00 > 0:29:03it was heard that she had adopted a little girl.

0:29:03 > 0:29:07That day we met, I heard your father say something about Estella,

0:29:07 > 0:29:09that no-one knows who she is?

0:29:09 > 0:29:12We were told she was the orphaned child of friends.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15No friends anyone had ever heard of.

0:29:15 > 0:29:19Is that why you're not happy for me, because no-one knows where Estella is from? I expected better from you.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22No, that's not it at all!

0:29:22 > 0:29:26Compeyson's betrayal hangs around Satis House like a curse.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29It festers and Miss Havisham lets it fester.

0:29:29 > 0:29:32Estella has grown up with that,

0:29:32 > 0:29:36surrounded by its influence every single day.

0:29:36 > 0:29:39You do not know Estella!

0:29:40 > 0:29:42I love her.

0:29:42 > 0:29:45When I reach my majority, we will be married.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47Just tread carefully, Pip. Be cautious.

0:29:47 > 0:29:51Everyone is telling me to be cautious these days. I am sick of caution.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54Quite right, Pip. Caution is very boring.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Pocket.

0:29:56 > 0:29:57Drummle.

0:29:59 > 0:30:01You know each other?

0:30:01 > 0:30:04We schooled together. Didn't we, Herbert?

0:30:05 > 0:30:06Goodbye.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16Dear old Empty Pocket.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19I wonder if he didn't cut himself off from his family

0:30:19 > 0:30:22for some girl in order to make himself the tiniest bit memorable.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27Where did you school, Pip?

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Privately. At home.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34Lucky you.

0:30:35 > 0:30:39I appear to be drinking all your champagne, how fearfully rude of me.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42Yes, well, we'll get another. It would be my pleasure.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44I do like new people.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Mr Wemmick?

0:31:34 > 0:31:36It is not the day for your allowance.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38I know, I wanted to speak to you on a private matter.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41Make an appointment with the clerks to see Mr Jaggers.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44This isn't something I'd wish to discuss with Mr Jaggers.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47- I thought you'd be more suitable. - No-one more suitable than Jaggers.

0:31:47 > 0:31:51- If you'd just hear me out. We could have luncheon at my club.- Luncheon?

0:31:51 > 0:31:53I'm too busy for luncheon at your club or anywhere else.

0:31:53 > 0:31:58Then I'd be happy to come to Walworth when you'd have more leisure to listen...

0:31:58 > 0:32:00Make an appointment with the clerks.

0:32:00 > 0:32:04Now you'll excuse me, I have urgent business to conduct.

0:32:06 > 0:32:10You really don't like me very much, do you, Mr Wemmick?

0:32:13 > 0:32:15I don't know who you are.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24SHOUTING

0:32:24 > 0:32:26Down there.

0:32:26 > 0:32:30And what will happen to your property when you are dropped?

0:32:30 > 0:32:35Pondering your immortal soul and how you will explain yourself to the Almighty, that's all very well,

0:32:35 > 0:32:38but these chickens need water, grain, a coop.

0:32:38 > 0:32:41You're condemned but they can be saved, if you bequeath them to me.

0:32:43 > 0:32:44HE LAUGHS

0:32:44 > 0:32:46Yep.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50They'll join my flock at Walworth and be well looked after.

0:32:50 > 0:32:53I wish you a good ending. The ropeman is Noakes.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55Ties a strong knot.

0:32:55 > 0:33:00- What are you doing here? - If I must follow you to Newgate to have an audience with you, I will.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03- Did you just take his chickens? - I accepted his bequest.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07And he has no further need of them. What is this matter then?

0:33:07 > 0:33:12- Herbert still hasn't found a situation.- That is because he requires capital to buy into a firm.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15- Capital that Herbert doesn't have. - But I do.

0:33:15 > 0:33:16Or I will have.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Mr Wemmick, I want to use my expectations to help Herbert

0:33:18 > 0:33:22but it has to be completely secret and I don't know how to go about it.

0:33:22 > 0:33:23So I...thought of you.

0:33:23 > 0:33:27I would counsel very strongly against such help being given.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Such dissolution of your portable property is most ill-advised.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32You see these?

0:33:32 > 0:33:33You see these?

0:33:35 > 0:33:37These are all part of my portable property

0:33:37 > 0:33:39and I do not give one piece of it away.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41Nor should you yours.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44This is the advice of Mr Wemmick, Jaggers' chief clerk?

0:33:44 > 0:33:45It is.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49And what does the Mr Wemmick who grows his own rhubarb say?

0:33:51 > 0:33:55They're a firm of shipping insurers. Venerable and well respected.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58- Herbert had written to them some time ago.- That would be perfect.

0:33:58 > 0:34:02How will they explain why they're giving him this opportunity when he's penniless?

0:34:02 > 0:34:03I've thought of that.

0:34:03 > 0:34:07Old Mr Clarriker will tell Herbert he was touched by his obvious passion for ships

0:34:07 > 0:34:10and wants to support a young man looking to strike out on his own

0:34:10 > 0:34:13- without the cushion of family money. - It's a terrible lie.

0:34:13 > 0:34:16For a very good cause. I've rather enjoyed my mission.

0:34:16 > 0:34:20The cloak and dagger. Without the dagger.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22The capital required is £500.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25Can you pay a portion of that from what is in my allowance?

0:34:25 > 0:34:27I can, but what will you live on?

0:34:27 > 0:34:30I am going to inherit a fortune, Mr Wemmick. A fortune!

0:34:30 > 0:34:34Money is not a concern. Tell Clarrikers they will receive the full amount on my majority.

0:34:34 > 0:34:37- They understand that Herbert must never know?- They're a business.

0:34:37 > 0:34:42As long as they get their capital, they're happy with any conditions. I shall close the deal.

0:34:45 > 0:34:48It seems not everything in this world is venal.

0:34:54 > 0:34:56- Mrs Brandley.- My dear.

0:34:56 > 0:35:00The whirligig of the season is upon us once more.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03- And these are your daughters? - Yes.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05- Such beauties!- Thank you.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09Surely you are not nervous?

0:35:09 > 0:35:11I am sick of being looked at.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13I am sick of being evaluated.

0:35:15 > 0:35:17And the women are the very worst.

0:35:20 > 0:35:23None of them can hold a candle to you, Estella.

0:35:23 > 0:35:27May I introduce Mr Pirrip and Miss Estella Havisham?

0:35:28 > 0:35:30- Ladies.- Mr Pirrip.

0:35:35 > 0:35:40Miss Havisham, I've called several times but you are always indisposed.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43How have I insulted you? I don't know what I've done.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46You are making a spectacle of yourself, Sir.

0:35:52 > 0:35:55- (Did you see that?- I did.)

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Bidding will be very fierce this year.

0:36:02 > 0:36:03CHATTERING

0:36:03 > 0:36:08Mr Pirrip, you are being much admired.

0:36:08 > 0:36:14Do take an interest or their doting mama will be most offended.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20I am flattered by their interest but I am clearly escorting another lady.

0:36:20 > 0:36:22This is a market, Mr Pirrip.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25All the stock must be assessed.

0:36:25 > 0:36:29CHATTERING

0:36:32 > 0:36:33We are friends.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35Indeed?

0:36:35 > 0:36:37He is quite the bachelor du jour.

0:36:37 > 0:36:41A baronet, will inherit the title and the estate.

0:36:41 > 0:36:46Breeding, bloodlines and proven provenance.

0:36:49 > 0:36:53You said you and Mr Drummle were friends. I wonder.

0:37:04 > 0:37:05Drummle.

0:37:05 > 0:37:09Pip. You've been seeing my tailor.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11We could almost be twins.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14How charming to see you again, Miss Havisham.

0:37:14 > 0:37:15Excuse me.

0:37:19 > 0:37:20HE EXHALES

0:37:20 > 0:37:24I wondered if we might talk later.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29We could go to Finches?

0:37:29 > 0:37:31Oh, I think we can do better than Finches.

0:37:31 > 0:37:33I'm going to my other club tonight.

0:37:35 > 0:37:36You'll like it there.

0:37:42 > 0:37:45We are both gentlemen, are we not?

0:37:45 > 0:37:46We are, yes.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48Then, speak freely.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54There is an understanding between myself and Miss Estella Havisham.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57There has been for some years.

0:37:57 > 0:38:01I would not wish for you to become attached and then be disappointed.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Well, that's very decent of you to let me know, Pip.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08Very decent indeed.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11Glad you understand.

0:38:11 > 0:38:13Pip.

0:38:14 > 0:38:19What sort of a name is Pip? Who calls a man Pip? Pippety Pip.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27Gentlemen.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41Her and her.

0:38:45 > 0:38:49You like to spend, don't you? So, spend.

0:38:49 > 0:38:52You can have what you like and no-one cares.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54Whatever your impulses demand.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58No?

0:38:58 > 0:38:59I shouldn't be here.

0:38:59 > 0:39:04Oh, dear. Ladies, it seems that my friend Pippy is a virgin.

0:39:04 > 0:39:06LAUGHTER

0:39:06 > 0:39:08Poor little virgin. He doesn't know what to do!

0:39:08 > 0:39:12Just copy me, Pippy. Isn't that how you get by? Isn't that how you pass?

0:39:12 > 0:39:16By throwing your money around and copying me, Pippety Pippety Pip?

0:39:16 > 0:39:19- Stop calling me that. - I know exactly what you are.

0:39:19 > 0:39:21You're not one of us.

0:39:22 > 0:39:24You know I know, don't you, Pip?

0:39:43 > 0:39:44Who's there?

0:40:00 > 0:40:02How well do you know Bentley Drummle?

0:40:02 > 0:40:04You should not worry about Mr Drummle.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08He will not get a moment's joy from me.

0:40:08 > 0:40:11He is not what he says he is.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13None of us are.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16Not you.

0:40:16 > 0:40:18Not me.

0:40:22 > 0:40:24Estella...

0:40:25 > 0:40:28Do you remember anything about your life before Satis House?

0:40:34 > 0:40:35I'm not sure.

0:40:37 > 0:40:38MRS BRANDLEY SNORES

0:40:42 > 0:40:44THEY LAUGH

0:42:46 > 0:42:47I know it was you.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51I'll never say.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57Thank you, Pip.

0:42:57 > 0:42:59You're a good, good friend.

0:43:01 > 0:43:03Go and congratulate him.

0:43:16 > 0:43:19'Estella, at last! Why did you not come sooner?'

0:43:19 > 0:43:24I've been waiting and waiting. Look! See, I keep them all.

0:43:24 > 0:43:26I read them over and over,

0:43:26 > 0:43:30but they're not detailed enough, Estella.

0:43:30 > 0:43:33Can I not at least remove my gloves?

0:43:33 > 0:43:34I must hear.

0:43:34 > 0:43:37Come. Come. Tell me everything,

0:43:37 > 0:43:40I must hear it all.

0:43:41 > 0:43:43Get him whatever he wants!

0:44:01 > 0:44:04FAINT VOICES ARGUE

0:44:04 > 0:44:06I don't want to read them, read them to yourself.

0:44:06 > 0:44:09That's the least I deserve after all I've given you.

0:44:09 > 0:44:13- I've done all you've asked for and more.- Where are you going? - I'm tired. I want to rest.

0:44:13 > 0:44:15- I've told you everything. - Tell me again!

0:44:15 > 0:44:19What did he look like? did he weep? Tell me!

0:44:20 > 0:44:22How can you be so cold?

0:44:22 > 0:44:24It's what you trained me to be.

0:44:24 > 0:44:25Leave me alone.

0:44:25 > 0:44:29No! I will not let you leave me!

0:44:29 > 0:44:31You will not leave me!

0:45:15 > 0:45:17Where is Miss Havisham?

0:45:19 > 0:45:21She retired early.

0:45:23 > 0:45:25There was an argument.

0:45:27 > 0:45:29She wants me to love her.

0:45:31 > 0:45:32But I cannot.

0:45:38 > 0:45:39Why?

0:45:45 > 0:45:47Because I do not have a heart.

0:45:49 > 0:45:52That's not true, Estella.

0:45:56 > 0:45:58I know it's not true.

0:46:05 > 0:46:07'Are you a gentleman yet?'

0:46:07 > 0:46:10That is for you to tell me, Miss Havisham.

0:46:10 > 0:46:12You look the part.

0:46:13 > 0:46:16You sound the part.

0:46:16 > 0:46:19Your good opinion's all that matters to me, Miss Havisham.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22And I reach my majority soon.

0:46:23 > 0:46:25The time goes by quickly.

0:46:25 > 0:46:27Your destiny approaches.

0:46:28 > 0:46:30I will write. As usual.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32Tell you of my progress.

0:46:32 > 0:46:33So cold.

0:46:37 > 0:46:40I am what you designed me to be.

0:46:40 > 0:46:42I am your blade.

0:46:42 > 0:46:45You cannot now complain if you also feel the hurt.

0:46:54 > 0:46:56Miss Havisham.

0:47:04 > 0:47:10'My dear Pip. This is your Uncle Pumblechook,

0:47:10 > 0:47:13'making so bold as to convey with the deepest regrets

0:47:13 > 0:47:15'that your sister is dead.'

0:47:39 > 0:47:40Sad day, Joe.

0:47:47 > 0:47:49I'll wait for you.

0:47:53 > 0:47:57She had been sinking fast, Mr Pip.

0:47:58 > 0:48:01In many ways, it's a blessed relief.

0:48:03 > 0:48:07Now Joe can start working again. The forge has been completely idle.

0:48:07 > 0:48:10Is this bespoke, Mr Pip? Of course it's bespoke!

0:48:10 > 0:48:13It is the quality way now to only wear bespoke.

0:48:13 > 0:48:16What do you mean, working again? The forge, idle?

0:48:16 > 0:48:21He couldn't run the forge and do everything your dear sister needed.

0:48:21 > 0:48:23Not all alone.

0:48:23 > 0:48:26You do cut a dash, Mr Pip. A dash indeed.

0:48:26 > 0:48:29I've arranged the wake.

0:48:29 > 0:48:31A lot of people excited to see you.

0:48:31 > 0:48:35In the end, I had to ticket the event, such was the demand.

0:48:35 > 0:48:37I can now get a new pony for the trap.

0:48:37 > 0:48:40She was your niece and you charged people to go to her wake?

0:48:42 > 0:48:44It's what she would have wanted.

0:48:44 > 0:48:47We shall see you there, Mr Pip, Sir.

0:48:47 > 0:48:49There's boiled ham and a plum duff.

0:49:21 > 0:49:26Tried to keep up the house but just ain't got the touch Missus had.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33- She was a terror for dust. - Joe, you did everything you could.

0:49:33 > 0:49:35No man could have done more.

0:49:37 > 0:49:40You'll be wanted at the wake.

0:49:40 > 0:49:42I'm not going to that.

0:49:44 > 0:49:48Your room's the same from when you left. I put sheets on the bed.

0:49:48 > 0:49:50No, Joe, I can't stay.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53I have to go back to London.

0:49:53 > 0:49:55I'm taking Estella to a ball. I...promised.

0:50:13 > 0:50:16MUSIC PLAYS

0:51:00 > 0:51:04APPLAUSE

0:51:10 > 0:51:12May I?

0:51:26 > 0:51:30MUSIC PLAYS

0:51:47 > 0:51:50You should move swiftly, Mr Pirrip.

0:51:50 > 0:51:52He is most taken with her

0:51:52 > 0:51:55and he's very used to getting what he wants.

0:51:57 > 0:51:59Then want must be his master.

0:52:15 > 0:52:17Ladies.

0:52:22 > 0:52:25Swine-herd? Bird scarer?

0:52:25 > 0:52:29- To what do you refer? - I'm trying to guess what you did before you got your money.

0:52:29 > 0:52:33- Do the voice, Pippety-Pip. - What voice?

0:52:33 > 0:52:37The voice you had before you worked so hard to get this one.

0:52:37 > 0:52:39Where are you from, Pippy? Who are you?

0:52:39 > 0:52:42- I am a gentleman. - Oh, but you're not.

0:52:42 > 0:52:44Any more than she is a lady.

0:52:44 > 0:52:47Something about the pair of you doesn't smell quite right.

0:52:47 > 0:52:49But at least she doesn't curdle the milk.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51Shepherd?

0:52:51 > 0:52:55Or did you pick stones out of fields to earn your meagre crust?

0:52:55 > 0:52:59- Will you take me to my carriage? I wish to go home.- Miss Havisham.

0:53:01 > 0:53:02Pip.

0:53:08 > 0:53:09Thank you for rescuing me.

0:53:09 > 0:53:12I shall have to try and avoid him in future.

0:53:12 > 0:53:16The season will be over and he will go back to his estate

0:53:16 > 0:53:19a married man and you will not have to see him again.

0:53:19 > 0:53:21How do you know?

0:53:21 > 0:53:23It is the sort of thing I know.

0:53:26 > 0:53:28We shall all be married soon.

0:53:29 > 0:53:30Indeed we shall.

0:53:32 > 0:53:33LAUGHTER

0:53:35 > 0:53:37I would like to say a few words.

0:53:37 > 0:53:38HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:53:38 > 0:53:41First of all, I would like to thank Clara's dear Papa

0:53:41 > 0:53:45for allowing me to marry his beloved daughter, finally.

0:53:45 > 0:53:47LAUGHTER

0:53:47 > 0:53:49I will treasure her, Sir.

0:53:49 > 0:53:53And I would like to thank you, my friends, for celebrating with us.

0:53:53 > 0:53:57And I would like to thank my wife, for marrying me

0:53:57 > 0:53:59and making me the most blessed man in the world.

0:53:59 > 0:54:03APPLAUSE

0:54:03 > 0:54:07And...and I have an announcement.

0:54:07 > 0:54:10Clarrikers are opening a new office in Cairo.

0:54:12 > 0:54:16And I've been asked to help set it up. And I've accepted.

0:54:16 > 0:54:22So, to friends, to Cairo and to Mrs Clara Pocket!

0:54:22 > 0:54:25- Mrs Clara Pocket!- Thank you.

0:54:27 > 0:54:29Good night!

0:54:32 > 0:54:33Cairo.

0:54:33 > 0:54:37It's not the ends of the earth. You can visit.

0:54:37 > 0:54:40He's very happy, Pip.

0:54:40 > 0:54:43As you should be. You come into your majority tomorrow.

0:54:44 > 0:54:46I'll find out the identity of my benefactor.

0:54:46 > 0:54:49You will receive your portable property.

0:54:49 > 0:54:51No more waiting.

0:54:51 > 0:54:53Your life will begin in earnest.

0:55:01 > 0:55:03Life begins.

0:55:55 > 0:55:58Get out! Get out or I'll strike you!

0:55:58 > 0:56:00You don't want to do that, Pip.

0:56:01 > 0:56:02How do you know my name?

0:56:02 > 0:56:04Who are you?

0:56:04 > 0:56:05You know me, boy.

0:56:18 > 0:56:20Abel Magwitch.

0:56:26 > 0:56:29Don't be scared. I mean you no harm.

0:56:29 > 0:56:31What are you doing here? What do you want from me?

0:56:31 > 0:56:33I brought you something.

0:56:35 > 0:56:36Something you been waiting on.

0:56:48 > 0:56:50What's this?

0:56:50 > 0:56:52It's your fortune.

0:56:53 > 0:56:55Your fortune what was promised.

0:56:58 > 0:57:00It's me that done this for you.

0:57:02 > 0:57:04It's me that is your benefactor.

0:57:06 > 0:57:09You're my gentleman, Pip.

0:57:25 > 0:57:27It's not how I wanted it, Pip.

0:57:27 > 0:57:29You should have stayed in New South Wales.

0:57:29 > 0:57:31No, I won't let you do it!

0:57:33 > 0:57:37He is a lifer who has defied the law. He will hang.

0:57:37 > 0:57:39You could have been happy.

0:57:39 > 0:57:41Oh! Don't touch me.

0:57:47 > 0:57:50You know nothing about men, Miss Havisham.
