0:00:02 > 0:00:04And you'll favour me by never setting foot on Trenwith land.

0:00:04 > 0:00:06You've a beguiling way, Drake Carne!

0:00:06 > 0:00:07I tremble for the young maids hereabouts!

0:00:07 > 0:00:11How dare Odgers forbid Christians his church?

0:00:11 > 0:00:14I am a Warleggan now, and must take my husband's part.

0:00:14 > 0:00:15Justice of the Peace.

0:00:15 > 0:00:18The first Warleggan to be called to the bench.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20There's an old convent turned into a prison.

0:00:20 > 0:00:21Hundreds of English prisoners are kept there.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23Could Dwight have been taken there?

0:00:23 > 0:00:25- An old friend of my father has contacts in France.- And so?

0:00:25 > 0:00:27I think I must go.

0:00:27 > 0:00:29Heave!

0:01:36 > 0:01:37Where is he, Jeremy?

0:01:38 > 0:01:40Papa's been gone a long while, hasn't he?

0:01:43 > 0:01:44Where can he be, sweetheart?

0:01:46 > 0:01:47Where can he be?

0:02:22 > 0:02:24THEY SHOUT IN FRENCH

0:02:31 > 0:02:32Come on.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43He'll be home in a few days.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47I pray for his return - and dread it.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49For while there's no news of Dwight...

0:02:49 > 0:02:50There's still hope.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Yes.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54That he is still alive, somewhere in France.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58I couldn't bear for Ross to risk his life for nothing.

0:03:00 > 0:03:01Dr Enys be alive.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Ole Prudie feel it in her bones.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05And don't you worry about Ross.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07He knows how to take care of himself.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09In any case, 'tis only Roscoff!

0:03:13 > 0:03:16THEY SHOUT IN FRENCH

0:03:21 > 0:03:23"Quaint little market town?"

0:03:23 > 0:03:28So 'twas, young Cap'n, when your father and I used to make the trip.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31That was 20 years ago, before the Revolution.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Let's hope that's not our man.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39Nay, Jacques Clisson be a wily ole cove.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42He'll be laying low till the coast's clear.

0:03:42 > 0:03:43Whenever that might be.

0:03:43 > 0:03:44D'reckly, I swear.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Ole Tholly ever let 'ee down before?

0:03:57 > 0:04:00HE SPEAKS IN FRENCH

0:04:07 > 0:04:09- Ma'am.- Ma'am.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13These people, you know them?

0:04:13 > 0:04:16Of course. They're our tenants.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20Francis always felt it was important to be on good terms with them -

0:04:20 > 0:04:22but then he'd grown up in the district.

0:04:22 > 0:04:23With an ancient family name.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25And no fences.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28Reverend Odgers, I observe the west gate needs repairing.

0:04:28 > 0:04:29Would you send the bill to my steward?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Most generous of you, sir. We're unspeakably grateful.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35# Come, sinners to the gospel feast

0:04:35 > 0:04:39# Let every soul be Jesus' guest

0:04:39 > 0:04:43# Ye need not one be left behind

0:04:43 > 0:04:47# For God hath bid all humankind

0:04:47 > 0:04:52# Sent by my Lord, on you I call

0:04:52 > 0:04:56# The invitation is to all

0:04:56 > 0:04:59# Come all the world come, sinner, thou

0:04:59 > 0:05:03# All things in Christ are ready now. #

0:05:09 > 0:05:10No!

0:05:10 > 0:05:11Monsieur?

0:05:29 > 0:05:31News from Roscoff?

0:05:31 > 0:05:33It's not good. Revolution has hit it hard.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Information will be difficult to find.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Ross will need to bide a while.

0:05:38 > 0:05:39Oh, 'course he do!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42When do anything go according to plan with Ross?

0:05:44 > 0:05:45You've heard the latest?

0:05:46 > 0:05:49About brother Sam?

0:05:49 > 0:05:50Not being allowed in church,

0:05:50 > 0:05:52his brethren have taken to singing outside.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55# Ye restless wanderers after rest. #

0:05:55 > 0:05:59I said there'd soon be more pilgrims without the church than within!

0:05:59 > 0:06:02It sits uneasy with me, this show of defiance.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05'Tis not like they do any harm.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07They only praise the Lord in their own way.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10In their own way, yes, which the church forbid.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12But Odgers forbids them the church.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Where must they go?

0:06:19 > 0:06:22Now, Ross don't want you worshipping on his land,

0:06:22 > 0:06:24but would this not serve?

0:06:24 > 0:06:26The old Grambler meeting house.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29It was gifted by Francis to the villagers.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30What happened to it?

0:06:30 > 0:06:34When George bought all the land hereabouts and closed Grambler mine,

0:06:34 > 0:06:36the village did empty, and all about fell to disrepair.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43He's a veritable John the Baptist.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45You're not of the connection yourself?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Father was.

0:06:47 > 0:06:48Grandfather afore him...

0:06:49 > 0:06:51..but I have more sense.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53It is not so very decayed.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56It would take but a few good men with timbers and nails.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Where's Drake when you need him?!

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Drake!

0:07:15 > 0:07:16Drake!

0:07:33 > 0:07:34Come on, Drake!

0:07:37 > 0:07:41Now I've become a magistrate, I can begin to hunt a bigger prize.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46I wish to become a burgess of the borough.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50That would certainly advance your influence in the district.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52But our recent mine closures, trade monopolies,

0:07:52 > 0:07:57land enclosures, these have not endeared us to the vulgars -

0:07:57 > 0:08:00and with events in France making our patricians nervous,

0:08:00 > 0:08:04we should have a care of how we're seen to treat our tenants.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06A less heavy-handed approach?

0:08:06 > 0:08:08A courting of public approval.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12George Warleggan, man of the people.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Ross Poldark had better look to his crown!

0:08:20 > 0:08:22- Qu'est ce qu'il y a? - Tu es un espion royaliste.

0:08:22 > 0:08:23Je soutiens la republique, moi.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Et tu viens avec nous.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Je vous le jure, je vous le jure. S'il vous plait! S'il vous plait!

0:08:47 > 0:08:49SHE FARTS

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Windy, was it, on the beach today?

0:08:57 > 0:08:58Oh...

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Why would you think so?

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Hair? Face? Shoes?

0:09:07 > 0:09:10You'll have to be sharp to out trump me, boy.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Did I hear you've been to Hendrawna Beach?

0:09:15 > 0:09:18And why not in such fine weather?

0:09:18 > 0:09:20Sea air does wonders for the lungs!

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Nevertheless, it's further than I'd wish you to go.

0:09:23 > 0:09:24There are strong currents...

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Oh, we never go near when the tide is full.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28..and it's unsafe to be so far from home.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30There's unrest in the villages.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33The harvest has failed, inevitably there's discontent.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Take your father's pistol.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37I'd prefer you not to go at all.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40BABY FUSSES

0:09:40 > 0:09:41As you wish, cousin.

0:09:43 > 0:09:44He's not a bit like me.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Is he?

0:09:47 > 0:09:49Much darker.

0:09:49 > 0:09:50Hmm.

0:09:54 > 0:09:55John, over here.

0:10:29 > 0:10:30He's here.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56Monsieur Clisson.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02The prison at Quimper.

0:11:02 > 0:11:03Most of the prisoners are English.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06Many are sick and wounded.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Any officers among them?

0:11:08 > 0:11:10It's difficult.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13The guards have orders to speak to no-one...

0:11:15 > 0:11:17..but there is one I know.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20He tells me there are survivors of a recent sea battle.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Could he provide names?

0:11:25 > 0:11:27Possibly.

0:11:27 > 0:11:28For a price.

0:11:28 > 0:11:29How much?

0:11:33 > 0:11:3550...

0:11:35 > 0:11:36for him...

0:11:36 > 0:11:38and 50 for me.

0:11:54 > 0:11:55When do you return?

0:11:55 > 0:11:57Beware, monsieur.

0:11:57 > 0:11:58The Republic is watchful.

0:12:02 > 0:12:03Tonight.

0:12:12 > 0:12:13Do 'ee trust him?

0:12:14 > 0:12:15No...

0:12:16 > 0:12:18..but he's all we have.

0:12:27 > 0:12:32Francis Poldark gifted the Old Chapel near Grambler village.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34He was always giving away property.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36- No doubt that's why he was so popular.- Hmm.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40We can have our attorney prepare a formal deed of gift.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44It can be our first act of benevolence toward the vulgars.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47Lately, a group of Methodists have been repairing it.

0:12:49 > 0:12:50Methodists?

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Aye, that was its former use, as a meeting house.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Do you happen to know the names of these Methodists?

0:12:57 > 0:12:58No, sir.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04As magistrate, I'm empowered to appoint a constable

0:13:04 > 0:13:05for the district.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07You will be such a one.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10- I, sir?- Your Trenwith duties will remain unchanged,

0:13:10 > 0:13:14but in addition you'll be deployed on certain public errands.

0:13:14 > 0:13:15If 'ee say so, sir.

0:13:15 > 0:13:20What I say is that you will find me the names of these Methodists.

0:13:20 > 0:13:21Yes, sir.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28And let us not be too hasty with our deed of gift.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31It may not be needed after all.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Just like old times.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54Confess, young Cap'n, do 'ee not long for those days?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Thee, me and your father, up to no good!

0:13:56 > 0:14:00I've had my fill of sailing close to the wind.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03I have a wife, a child, another on the way.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08I'll be keeping my head down and my mouth shut.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23There are officers of the army and navy,

0:14:23 > 0:14:25but it is not easy to get names.

0:14:25 > 0:14:26It will cost more.

0:14:27 > 0:14:28100.

0:14:40 > 0:14:4250 now.

0:14:42 > 0:14:4450 when you bring me their names.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52It will take time. Go home. I'll send you word.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55I am not be leaving Roscoff until I have a list.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Then you must be on your guard, monsieur.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Every hour you remain puts you in greater danger.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07The Republic may turn a blind eye to the trade, not to spies.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08We are not spies.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11You seek information concerning prisoners of the Republic.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12Some will call that spying.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01Whatever happened to that beauty you once set your heart on?

0:16:03 > 0:16:04Chynoweth girl.

0:16:05 > 0:16:06She married my cousin.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08Harsh.

0:16:10 > 0:16:11I survived.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14I needed a wife who could chop wood and skin rabbits,

0:16:14 > 0:16:16as well as drink tea and curtsey.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Your father would've bedded his maid, not wed her.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25My father and I are not alike.

0:16:25 > 0:16:26Aye...

0:16:28 > 0:16:33..and yet, here you are, with ole Tholly again...

0:16:35 > 0:16:37..on another fool's errand.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40HE LAUGHS

0:16:43 > 0:16:45BABY FUSSES

0:17:01 > 0:17:02Elizabeth?

0:17:06 > 0:17:08- My dear, I'm leaving shortly. - For what?

0:17:09 > 0:17:11My first appearance on the bench.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16Perhaps you'd care to accompany me?

0:17:16 > 0:17:20Would I? I seem to recall Francis found it all quite tiresome.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24No, I think my time is better spent here.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27There are household matters to attend to.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28Just as you like.

0:17:56 > 0:18:01THEY SHOUT IN FRENCH

0:18:34 > 0:18:40I, George Warleggan, do swear that I truly and bona fide

0:18:40 > 0:18:42have such an estate in law or equity...

0:18:44 > 0:18:47..to and for my own use and benefit,

0:18:47 > 0:18:51as doth qualify me to act as a Justice of the Peace,

0:18:51 > 0:18:55according to the true intent and meaning of the Act.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05- Vive la republique! - Vive la republique!

0:19:07 > 0:19:11- Vive la republique! - Vive la republique!

0:19:11 > 0:19:13- Vive la republique! - Vive la republique!

0:19:52 > 0:19:54That's all we need.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56She's had her eye on us since we arrived.

0:19:59 > 0:20:00Vive la republique.

0:20:02 > 0:20:03As you say, mademoiselle.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07You are here on business?

0:20:07 > 0:20:09Importer of fine wines and spirits.

0:20:11 > 0:20:12Can you prove it?

0:20:15 > 0:20:17- I have papers.- About you?

0:20:17 > 0:20:19In my room.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Shall we go and inspect them?

0:20:28 > 0:20:32My apologies, mademoiselle, I omitted to mention -

0:20:32 > 0:20:34I'm married, with a child.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- I'm not.- Tholly.

0:20:37 > 0:20:38- I'm ready, willing and able. - Tholly.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40Well, if he won't, I will.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44- I must apologise for my servant, mademoiselle.- Servant?!

0:20:44 > 0:20:47You are a stranger in these parts, monsieur,

0:20:47 > 0:20:50and evidently not aware of how useful it is to have friends...

0:20:52 > 0:20:53..as opposed to enemies.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59I humbly trust I've made none today.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12How frustrating is a woman's lot?

0:21:14 > 0:21:17We're left idling at home while the men go off and fight battles.

0:21:17 > 0:21:18Is that what we do, idle?

0:21:19 > 0:21:22Perhaps I've grown less bold since my marriage.

0:21:22 > 0:21:23I seriously doubt that.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28- I've been considering...- Yes?

0:21:28 > 0:21:29How could I get news of Dwight?

0:21:31 > 0:21:34Who do I know who has influence and could use it on my behalf?

0:21:37 > 0:21:40A pheasant is no small matter,

0:21:40 > 0:21:42and the theft of such property,

0:21:42 > 0:21:45from your betters, shows a disrespect for authority,

0:21:45 > 0:21:47which cannot go unpunished.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50It now remains for me to pronounce on you

0:21:50 > 0:21:51the awful sentence of the law,

0:21:51 > 0:21:54which is that you be tied to a post in the market square

0:21:54 > 0:21:56and publicly flogged.

0:21:56 > 0:21:5720 lashes.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Next case.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01- ALL SHOUT - No, don't!

0:22:01 > 0:22:02- SOBS:- No!

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Your man sent this from Trenwith, sir.

0:22:29 > 0:22:30Justice Warleggan.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Miss Penvenen, were you here to see me do my duty?

0:22:34 > 0:22:36I thought I'd look in.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38Most impressive -

0:22:38 > 0:22:40and, may I suggest, quite as valuable to our nation

0:22:40 > 0:22:41as those who fight our wars.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45Of course, a man in your position must be privy

0:22:45 > 0:22:48to all sorts of news, about the war.

0:22:48 > 0:22:50I know many of our acquaintances would be grateful

0:22:50 > 0:22:52of news of Dr Enys, for instance.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54I fear they would not.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59What makes you so sure?

0:22:59 > 0:23:02Dr Enys is not on any list of prisoners, nor of survivors.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05One must sadly assume the worst.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Mr Warleggan's taking it back?

0:23:14 > 0:23:15Can he do that?

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Well, he own the land.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19But it was gifted the brethren by Mr Francis.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21Verbally gifted, nothing writ down.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23What harm could it do to let us use it?

0:23:23 > 0:23:25None at all.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29You've defied him, so he means to put you in your place.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31So what's to be done?

0:23:31 > 0:23:33With Cap'n Ross not here to fight our corner.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36'Tis in the Lord's hands now.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41With respect, Sam, sometimes the Lord need do a little help.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51But Cap'n Ross said, "On no account..."

0:23:51 > 0:23:52Must you venture on Trenwith land?

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Well, Cap'n Ross ain't here now.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56So I say, do it.

0:23:56 > 0:23:57Elizabeth's there, alone.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00'Twas her late husband Francis did make the gift to the brethren.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02So she might have more sympathy than Mr Warleggan?

0:24:02 > 0:24:03Not if she sees me.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Will you keep them civil, Zacky?

0:24:07 > 0:24:08Easier said than done.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36Clisson will meet us here on Sunday night.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38He has definite information.

0:24:38 > 0:24:39What did I tell 'ee?

0:24:39 > 0:24:41Now we can rest easy.

0:24:43 > 0:24:44I suspect not.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46You will come with us, monsieur.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50Fils de pute! Laissez le!

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Pour l'amour de Dieu, Il est un marchant Anglais!

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Qu' a-t-il fait de mal?

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Remember what sister said, no mention of our names

0:25:06 > 0:25:07nor relation t' she.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11What be the cause of this ill will between the two houses?

0:25:11 > 0:25:12Isn't for me to say, boy...

0:25:13 > 0:25:15..but 'tis powerful.

0:25:20 > 0:25:21Master's not home.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25'Tis the mistress we come to see.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27She know me by sight and name.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29Zachariah Martin.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33You two, follow me -

0:25:33 > 0:25:36and, you, wait here.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39- Nay, but... - Mr Warleggan's orders.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43No more than two riff-raff in the house at any one time.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Drake?

0:26:03 > 0:26:04Drake? Is it really you?

0:26:04 > 0:26:08Shh, Master Geoffrey. I'm here with brother and Zacky Martin.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10They've business with your mother -

0:26:10 > 0:26:12but I 'spicion it would not be good for 'ee to be seen with me.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Oh, what do I care about that?

0:26:14 > 0:26:17Besides, these are actually my gardens - or will be one day.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21I am not an enemy of France.

0:26:21 > 0:26:23I am merely a businessman,

0:26:23 > 0:26:26trying to conduct a trade, which is to the benefit of France.

0:26:26 > 0:26:27It is not to the benefit of France

0:26:27 > 0:26:30to permit spies to come ashore and live amongst us.

0:26:30 > 0:26:31I'm not a spy.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34Since arriving here, I have made no attempt to venture

0:26:34 > 0:26:37beyond Roscoff, nor to act contrary to the interests of France.

0:26:37 > 0:26:38You act entirely against it

0:26:38 > 0:26:40by spending a single night on French soil

0:26:40 > 0:26:42without reporting to the gendarmerie.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45My apologies, monsieur, I had no idea there was such a requirement.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47The penalty for a first offence is imprisonment.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49For a second, execution.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57As this is a first offence, and committed without malice...

0:27:01 > 0:27:05..perhaps you would permit me to pay a fine in lieu of imprisonment?

0:27:07 > 0:27:09Say...

0:27:09 > 0:27:1120 guineas?

0:27:23 > 0:27:2450.

0:27:31 > 0:27:3250.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36On the condition that you leave Roscoff immediately.

0:27:36 > 0:27:38My ship will not return until Monday night.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40There is an English vessel, The May Queen, leaving tonight.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42You will board her, without delay.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45Perhaps, the offer of a further 50 guineas?

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Will lead to your immediate imprisonment

0:27:47 > 0:27:50for attempting to suborn an officer of the Republic.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53If you are found ashore after midnight, you will be executed.

0:27:57 > 0:27:58Avance.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16So we thought, since Mr Francis gifted land to the brethren...

0:28:16 > 0:28:17Are you quite sure he did that? I don't...

0:28:17 > 0:28:19Beggin' your pardon, ma'am.

0:28:19 > 0:28:23I was there with my ole father when Mr Francis made the promise.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26And so we ask your kind help, ma'am.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30For in the saving of this house, you'll be doing God's handiwork.

0:28:30 > 0:28:31Will I?

0:28:31 > 0:28:34And we shall personally pray for the saving of your soul.

0:28:35 > 0:28:39Any help 'ee can give will be much appreciated.

0:28:39 > 0:28:40I should be getting back.

0:28:40 > 0:28:43Brother and Mr Zacky'll be soon done.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Oh!

0:28:45 > 0:28:47Miss Morwenna.

0:28:47 > 0:28:48Why are you here?

0:28:49 > 0:28:52I came with my brother. He had to speak with Mrs Warleggan.

0:28:54 > 0:28:55Tell Drake, Morwenna.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59Tell him he must visit whenever Mama and Uncle George are away.

0:28:59 > 0:29:01- Oh, I'm not sure... - You'd like that.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03You know you would.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05You're always talking about him.

0:29:08 > 0:29:12If I write a note, inviting you to the house, will you come?

0:29:12 > 0:29:14Oh, pardon my asking...

0:29:14 > 0:29:16you can read?

0:29:16 > 0:29:17Of course!

0:29:17 > 0:29:19I...

0:29:19 > 0:29:21I think I must go.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24Until the next time, Miss Morwenna.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34I'll speak to Mr Warleggan when he returns

0:29:34 > 0:29:36and explain that you view this promise, made by my late husband,

0:29:36 > 0:29:38as a binding one.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41Of course, I cannot guarantee he'll reconsider.

0:29:41 > 0:29:44May the Lord ever guide 'ee and teach 'ee to walk in his ways.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47And we'll take no more of your time.

0:29:47 > 0:29:48- Good day to you both. BOTH:- Good day.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11All in all, 'twas a good day's work.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23CHATTERING IN FRENCH

0:30:25 > 0:30:27What now?

0:30:27 > 0:30:29We appear to be leaving.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43You had visitors today, cousin?

0:30:43 > 0:30:46Miners from the village, petitioning my husband

0:30:46 > 0:30:49about the use of a meeting house on our land.

0:30:49 > 0:30:50Let 'em have it, I say!

0:30:50 > 0:30:55Hark 'ee, Elizabeth! After all, 'tis actually the child's land -

0:30:55 > 0:30:56or will be.

0:30:59 > 0:31:00I'm surprised Elizabeth was that civil.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03Cos they were careful not to tell 'er their names.

0:31:03 > 0:31:04Or their connection to Ross.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08'Ave 'ee always bin a fiend for prayer?

0:31:08 > 0:31:10Nay, Mistress Paynter.

0:31:11 > 0:31:14I did live without God, in the gall o' bitterness

0:31:14 > 0:31:16an' th' bond of iniquity for upward o' 20 year.

0:31:18 > 0:31:21Till God did pardon my sins an' set my soul at liberty.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24An' now Sam 'ave found salvation stronger than th' rest of us.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30Sister, I've a favour to ask of 'ee.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Yes?

0:31:33 > 0:31:34Will 'ee teach me t' read?

0:31:38 > 0:31:40Were you stern?

0:31:40 > 0:31:41Fair.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43I sent out a clear message.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46Where the crime is severe, expect no mercy -

0:31:46 > 0:31:49and I had several compliments on my robes.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54While you were away we had visitors.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56- Some Methodists.- Methodists?

0:31:56 > 0:31:59Zacky Martin and another man,

0:31:59 > 0:32:02asking after the Grambler meeting house.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04These religious sects make me uneasy -

0:32:04 > 0:32:06they're seedbeds for revolution.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08They insist Francis had promised them the land.

0:32:08 > 0:32:12- But did he? - I doubt Zacky Martin would lie.

0:32:12 > 0:32:14- And the other man? - Seemed genuine.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17I think Zacky called him Sam.

0:32:17 > 0:32:18Carne.

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Samuel Carne.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23Demelza's brother.

0:32:26 > 0:32:27So...

0:32:27 > 0:32:30now you see the plan?

0:32:30 > 0:32:32Ross sends his brother-in-law to take advantage

0:32:32 > 0:32:34as soon as my back is turned.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37To encroach upon our lives yet again!

0:32:37 > 0:32:38I cannot believe he would presume...

0:32:38 > 0:32:41- And yet he has, once again. - How dare he?

0:32:41 > 0:32:43So we're in agreement?

0:32:43 > 0:32:46They must on no account be allowed the land?

0:32:48 > 0:32:49On no account.

0:32:57 > 0:32:58Allez!

0:33:00 > 0:33:01Avance!

0:33:05 > 0:33:09George was adamant, quite certain of it.

0:33:09 > 0:33:10His name was not on any lists?

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Well, Ross 'as not yet returned.

0:33:18 > 0:33:21I hope for all our sakes he is now aboard a ship bound for home.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31Good riddance t' France, I say!

0:33:31 > 0:33:35I've never been so glad t' see th' back o' that godforsaken cess-pit.

0:33:36 > 0:33:39Woulda bin more 'n our life's worth t'ave stayed.

0:33:41 > 0:33:45What 'ee did - keep yer head down an' yer mouth shut -

0:33:45 > 0:33:47'tis what any sensible man would do.

0:33:48 > 0:33:49Indeed.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55Get word to my wife - I've been delayed.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01Ross. Ross!

0:34:46 > 0:34:48- FROM OUTSIDE:- Allez, cherchez partout!

0:35:00 > 0:35:03SHOUTING IN FRENCH

0:35:11 > 0:35:13"Young Cap'n Ross d' most sincerely regret?"

0:35:13 > 0:35:16Oh, he'll regret ever sendin' home his hat,

0:35:16 > 0:35:18for it won't fit his head when I've done with him!

0:35:18 > 0:35:20- Ted'n right.- Ted'n fit.

0:35:20 > 0:35:21- Ted'n fair.- Ted'n proper.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23With a chile to raise an' another on th' way?

0:35:23 > 0:35:26A farm t' run an' a mine beside?

0:35:26 > 0:35:31How th' menfolk 'ave th' cheek to expect us t' do their biddin'!

0:35:31 > 0:35:32Lucky we never do.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36I'm still livid at Ross's insolence.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39I, too. To encourage such presumption.

0:35:39 > 0:35:42Encourage? He's surely planned it, to cause disruption to us yet again.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45Dear God, are we never to be rid of him?

0:35:49 > 0:35:52Not here perhaps. But elsewhere?

0:35:53 > 0:35:57If we removed to our town house in Truro,

0:35:57 > 0:35:59we'd be out of his immediate vicinity.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02Of course we'd take Valentine with us.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04And Geoffrey Charles?

0:36:04 > 0:36:06He could remain with Morwenna and your aunt.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13I'll miss him, of course, but...

0:36:14 > 0:36:17..the thought of being out of Ross's reach.

0:36:17 > 0:36:21Then shall we leave today?

0:36:21 > 0:36:22The sooner the better!

0:36:35 > 0:36:38S-S-Sam. Sam.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42Dee...

0:36:42 > 0:36:44De...

0:36:44 > 0:36:46Demelza.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50He said yes?

0:36:52 > 0:36:55He said we mus' put down our tools an' set no foot there again

0:36:55 > 0:36:57on pain o' death.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Why?

0:36:59 > 0:37:00What would it cost him?

0:37:02 > 0:37:04How could it hurt him to...?

0:37:06 > 0:37:10Of course. He must know that you're my brothers.

0:37:10 > 0:37:12Judas! Must it always be such a battle?

0:37:16 > 0:37:20Shake my hand, Geoffrey Charles. That's what young gentlemen do.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26Remember, Morwenna, keep him at his studies.

0:37:26 > 0:37:28- Of course.- And don't let him waste his time at cards.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30Wouldn't dream of it!

0:37:30 > 0:37:31I'll miss you, Mama.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47Now we can have some fun!

0:38:11 > 0:38:13I see why father was loath t' part with 'ee.

0:38:13 > 0:38:17Ye carry th' world on yer shoulders an' nary stoop 'neath th' weight.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22'Tis presently more'n I wish to bear. An' Ross is no help!

0:38:22 > 0:38:24He's a law unto himself.

0:38:25 > 0:38:28Sometimes I d' wonder why I wed 'im!

0:38:28 > 0:38:33Yet, sister, is all love not tricksical sometimes?

0:38:33 > 0:38:36I promised to love, honour and obey him.

0:38:38 > 0:38:39An' why should I?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47What, sister?

0:38:47 > 0:38:49What is it?

0:38:49 > 0:38:51I know where you can worship!

0:38:52 > 0:38:55Cap'n Ross would gift we this storehouse?

0:38:55 > 0:38:57Nay, brother. 'Tis I do gift you this storehouse.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00Clean it out, fettle it up - 'tis yours.

0:39:00 > 0:39:01Brother Ross won't like it.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03No more than I like certain antics of his!

0:39:03 > 0:39:04What's his is mine.

0:39:06 > 0:39:07So, take it...

0:39:07 > 0:39:09and make it your church.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27Well, my dear, is the house to your liking?

0:39:27 > 0:39:28Perfectly so.

0:39:28 > 0:39:32I realise how long I've been stultifying in the countryside.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34I feel I can breathe again.

0:39:35 > 0:39:38And since we're in town sooner than planned,

0:39:38 > 0:39:41perhaps you'd care to join me on my next appearance in court.

0:39:41 > 0:39:45I shall endeavour to make it as entertaining as the first!

0:39:55 > 0:39:57Now this we will set in writing,

0:39:57 > 0:40:00for we want no misunderstandin' of the law this time!

0:40:01 > 0:40:02Water!

0:40:32 > 0:40:33They told me you had left.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36I came to see if it were true.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39- Have you the list? - Have you the guineas?

0:40:39 > 0:40:42I've given you guineas. Show me the list.

0:40:42 > 0:40:43Monsieur, our agreement...

0:40:43 > 0:40:45When I have the list, you will have your fee.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Have a care, Monsieur, we are attracting attention.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52Give me the list!

0:40:52 > 0:40:53I must not be seen here.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02Ah, Monsieur, did you miss me?

0:41:03 > 0:41:04Is that why you came back?

0:41:06 > 0:41:08We could have been such good friends.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12I was unmannerly before, Mademoiselle.

0:41:14 > 0:41:19You made a generous offer and I did not appreciate my good fortune.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Perhaps it is not too late.

0:41:21 > 0:41:22You're very kind, ma'am.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25But I fear it is!

0:41:30 > 0:41:33Arretez cet homme! Arretez cet homme!

0:42:39 > 0:42:40From Lord Godolphin.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44- An invitation to a banquet. - How splendid.

0:42:50 > 0:42:51Ah.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56Apparently his young nephew Anthony

0:42:56 > 0:42:59is to come before the court tomorrow...

0:43:00 > 0:43:02..on a charge of assaulting a servant girl.

0:43:04 > 0:43:05Oh.

0:43:15 > 0:43:18- WHISPERS: So, we are in agreement, gentlemen?- Yes.

0:43:21 > 0:43:23THEY WHISPER

0:43:24 > 0:43:26We see before the court today

0:43:26 > 0:43:30a person who has been wronged in the grossest manner.

0:43:32 > 0:43:33Lies have been told.

0:43:34 > 0:43:36A blameless reputation is at stake.

0:43:39 > 0:43:43In our view, what is required here is to set an example

0:43:43 > 0:43:47in order to deter other persons from committing a like offence.

0:43:53 > 0:43:57Polly Tregaskis, the court considers you have committed perjury

0:43:57 > 0:44:00and slandered the good name of Anthony Godolphin.

0:44:00 > 0:44:03You will be committed for trial at the next assizes.

0:44:03 > 0:44:04CROWD GASPS AND MURMURS

0:44:10 > 0:44:12WAILING

0:44:16 > 0:44:18Everything points to a sorry end.

0:44:20 > 0:44:24After all this time, I cannot think that any news will be good.

0:44:25 > 0:44:27Nor I.

0:44:27 > 0:44:30What I learnt from Tholly of conditions in France...

0:44:36 > 0:44:39..I think we must both prepare for the worst.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47This helpful little tincture calms the nerves

0:44:47 > 0:44:50and fortifies the constitution.

0:44:53 > 0:44:58Three drops, as and when required.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42Go on!

0:45:42 > 0:45:45Go on, I dare you!

0:45:45 > 0:45:48Oh, dare me somethin' else, Miss Morwenna.

0:45:48 > 0:45:51Dare me somethin' worth darin'.

0:45:51 > 0:45:52Such as?

0:45:52 > 0:45:55Dare me... I dunno.

0:45:56 > 0:45:57Dare me t' kiss ye.

0:46:01 > 0:46:05But then I'd ne'er presume so far knowin' 't'would not be fittin'.

0:46:05 > 0:46:08No, it would not.

0:46:15 > 0:46:17Not with Geoffrey Charles here.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53HORSE APPROACHES

0:47:34 > 0:47:36PAINED COUGHING

0:47:38 > 0:47:44Deplace-toi! Allez, vous avez entendu! A present!

0:47:44 > 0:47:48Deplacez-vous la-bas, ecume anglaise!

0:47:48 > 0:47:50THEY SHOUT IN FRENCH

0:47:54 > 0:47:55Oh, Ross, he's alive!

0:47:55 > 0:47:57For what that's worth.

0:47:58 > 0:48:00If you knew what conditions are like in France

0:48:00 > 0:48:02for enemies of the Republic...

0:48:03 > 0:48:04Avance!

0:48:06 > 0:48:08Allez!

0:48:09 > 0:48:11En joue... feu!

0:48:11 > 0:48:14GUNSHOTS

0:48:14 > 0:48:17You must go to Caroline at once. Put her out of her misery.

0:48:22 > 0:48:26Bring him here! What is his name?

0:48:26 > 0:48:29Armitage, sir. Lieutenant Armitage. From HMS Espion.

0:48:29 > 0:48:30Bring me water! Quickly!

0:48:30 > 0:48:33Lieutenant Armitage? Can you hear me, sir?

0:48:36 > 0:48:38Is there water? I need water!

0:49:09 > 0:49:12Archie Godolphin was very affable.

0:49:16 > 0:49:20- Was he?- Invited me to dispense with the formality of "Lord" Godolphin.

0:49:21 > 0:49:25Conveyed his appreciation of my "astute judgment"

0:49:25 > 0:49:27and "sensitive handling of the case"...

0:49:29 > 0:49:32..and reminded me of our invitation to his banquet next Thursday

0:49:32 > 0:49:33at Godolphin House.

0:49:37 > 0:49:42I suspect it won't be long before we have a burgess in the family.

0:49:44 > 0:49:45At the very least.

0:50:06 > 0:50:14# O, Jesus ride on, till all are subdued, thy mercy make known,

0:50:14 > 0:50:21# And sprinkle thy blood display thy salvation

0:50:21 > 0:50:29# And teach the new song to every nation, and people, and tongue.

0:50:31 > 0:50:41# O Jesus ride on, till all are subdued, thy mercy make known,

0:50:41 > 0:50:44# And sprinkle thy blood display thy salvation... #

0:50:44 > 0:50:46A man could do worse than Rosie Nanfan!

0:50:46 > 0:50:50- I believe 'ee, brother. - Shall 'ee speak to her father?

0:50:50 > 0:50:54T'would be t' no purpose, brother. My heart's already bespoke.

0:50:54 > 0:50:57The old storehouse? By whose permission?

0:50:57 > 0:51:00By mine, Ross. Who else would say so?

0:51:00 > 0:51:03And you would take such a decision without consulting me?

0:51:06 > 0:51:10- You seriously ask me that? - I seriously ask it, yes.

0:51:12 > 0:51:14Who am I, Ross?

0:51:16 > 0:51:18My wife.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20And when you're away, who do I defer to?

0:51:20 > 0:51:23Do I wait for you t' return an' fill the void you've left behind?

0:51:23 > 0:51:25Or do I step into it?

0:51:26 > 0:51:28Live my life as if you be not in it.

0:51:29 > 0:51:31I've a child to support, another on the way.

0:51:31 > 0:51:35A farm to run, and a mine beside.

0:51:35 > 0:51:39Well, other women may bow an' scrape an' ask permission, as I once did...

0:51:40 > 0:51:42..but no longer.

0:51:42 > 0:51:45For all I knew, you were never coming back...

0:51:45 > 0:51:47an' then I'd be head o' th' family.

0:51:47 > 0:51:48But I have come back.

0:51:58 > 0:51:59You're right.

0:52:03 > 0:52:06I've no business questioning what you did in my absence.

0:52:09 > 0:52:10You're my wife, not my chattel.

0:52:13 > 0:52:16France is a desperate place...

0:52:18 > 0:52:22..and there were times when I doubted whether I'd come back alive.

0:52:25 > 0:52:27Now that I have...

0:52:28 > 0:52:31..I'm not about to quibble with the conditions of my return.

0:52:35 > 0:52:40Well, p'r'aps if you behave well,

0:52:40 > 0:52:43they may be warmer than you deserve.

0:53:05 > 0:53:07PAINED MOANS AND COUGHS

0:53:14 > 0:53:15What is this place?

0:53:17 > 0:53:19Where am I?

0:53:22 > 0:53:23Am I dead?

0:53:26 > 0:53:28Is this hell?

0:53:28 > 0:53:30GUNSHOTS

0:53:33 > 0:53:34You're alive, my friend.

0:53:37 > 0:53:38But you'll wish you were not.

0:53:40 > 0:53:41For we're all in hell now.

0:53:46 > 0:53:48THUNDER RUMBLES

0:53:50 > 0:53:52A most satisfactory day.

0:53:54 > 0:53:55Do you not think?

0:53:57 > 0:54:02George, let him lie - he must not constantly be fussed over.

0:54:02 > 0:54:05Must he not? My boy must not be fussed over?

0:54:05 > 0:54:10On the contrary, he must be cherished, exalted!

0:54:12 > 0:54:17He is, after all, my son and heir and all I now do is for his benefit.

0:54:17 > 0:54:21So, yes, a most pleasing day, and, all in all,

0:54:21 > 0:54:25I think we may say we are exactly where we wish to be.

0:54:45 > 0:54:48No doubt you were plagued by French beauties?

0:54:49 > 0:54:51No doubt I was.

0:54:52 > 0:54:53No doubt you availed yourself?

0:54:55 > 0:54:56No doubt I did.

0:54:58 > 0:55:00For I've no beauty at home to compare.

0:55:01 > 0:55:03Have I?

0:55:18 > 0:55:21The Princess Charlotte was ambushed this morning at Truro quay.

0:55:21 > 0:55:23Failed harvest, worst winter in 30 years.

0:55:23 > 0:55:26Is it wrong to hope for love in a marriage?

0:55:26 > 0:55:28Run an' make sure all's ready.

0:55:28 > 0:55:29I don' like it, maid.

0:55:29 > 0:55:31The Reverend Osborne Whitworth.

0:55:31 > 0:55:33I pray you excuse me, sir.

0:55:33 > 0:55:34I assure you my love will be returned.

0:55:34 > 0:55:37- You're certain it was he? - He's most certain th' ringleader.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39You're out o' your mind!

0:55:39 > 0:55:40He's overplayed his hand this time.

0:55:40 > 0:55:44- How do you sleep at night, George? - Perhaps you should ask Elizabeth.
