0:00:47 > 0:00:50Ooh, Denise is in love!

0:00:50 > 0:00:52I fear we will all fall in love, Sam.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56It's not for me to say what you see, sir, but I see pastry.

0:00:56 > 0:00:57I see gravy.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59Sam, these birds have come a long way.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01At great expense.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03So we must treasure them.

0:01:03 > 0:01:07What I thought was, we'll price them so that we sell very few.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11Moray, whenever I think I know you, I find myself chasing shadows.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14If they are too cheap they will be as common as finches,

0:01:14 > 0:01:15sold on every street corner.

0:01:15 > 0:01:19The idea is, we draw customers in simply to admire them.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21What do you think?

0:01:21 > 0:01:24I say these lovelies should have their own counter, to begin with.

0:01:24 > 0:01:25What a splash they will make.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36The birds are to have their own counter.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Do you think it would be foolish of me

0:01:38 > 0:01:40to ask to be the lovebird assistant?

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Not foolish, Denise. Marvellous.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45When you have sold all of the birds you can take on glassware,

0:01:45 > 0:01:49then menswear, then underwear and over-wear and in-wear and out-wear.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Pauline, has something upset you?

0:01:51 > 0:01:52Oh, perhaps.

0:01:54 > 0:01:55Who was it who helped you

0:01:55 > 0:01:58when you first arrived here wearing your dirty shoes?

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Now who is selling precious birds and who is selling buttons?

0:02:01 > 0:02:03You want to have the birds?

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Then you ought to speak to Mr Moray.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08I would have to speak to Mr Moray

0:02:08 > 0:02:10but whenever I do that my tongue gets tied.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Then you'll have to content yourself with buttons.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17Oh, you're right. I will speak to him.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19There he is now.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22I must think what I am to say first.

0:02:22 > 0:02:23Does he look different to you?

0:02:24 > 0:02:28I think he only appears different in your eyes.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Perhaps now that Katherine Glendenning

0:02:30 > 0:02:34is no longer to marry him you imagine you can catch him.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36I could never think such a thing.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Do you imagine you can do to the rest of us

0:03:00 > 0:03:02what you've done to Burroughs?

0:03:02 > 0:03:04It'll take more than money to root me out.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Yes, that is true.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11We should place the birds so they are visible

0:03:11 > 0:03:15- as soon as the customers are walking through the door.- Yes. Perhaps.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17We could hang some cages from the ceiling,

0:03:17 > 0:03:19so they are looking down on us?

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Moray, are you going to tell me what is troubling you?

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Is it Burroughs?

0:03:25 > 0:03:26It is Katherine.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30There is some kind of reconciliation,

0:03:30 > 0:03:33though I fear we play out the same cat and mouse game.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Then I suggest you put a stop to it.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38You can, you know. Settle down.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Katherine had every opportunity to accept Peter Adler's overtures.

0:03:41 > 0:03:46But she didn't. I wonder why! Moray, the woman loves you.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48- Let that be enough. - Let that be enough!

0:03:50 > 0:03:53Sir. Mr Moray, sir. The lovebirds, sir.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56You like the birds, Pauline?

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Sir, buttons is not fair.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Oh, you would like the bird counter?

0:04:02 > 0:04:05I think it is a rather splendid idea. Moray?

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Yes, yes. Why not?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Thank you, sir. I will not let you down.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12I will sell every bird and more.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14If there is to be more.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35There was a time when birds flew freely.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40Edmund, shall I tell you my miracle cure for everything that ails you?

0:04:40 > 0:04:41I'd like to hear it, yeah.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Cheer up!

0:04:48 > 0:04:52I'm sorry about Peter.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55It must have been rather embarrassing for you.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Oh, to be the source of gossip adds a certain...

0:04:58 > 0:05:00lustre to one's reputation, don't you think?

0:05:02 > 0:05:03It was foolish of me.

0:05:03 > 0:05:07I convinced myself you would put up more of a fight.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09How could I expect to compete with a man

0:05:09 > 0:05:11who established a home for foundlings?

0:05:16 > 0:05:21Moray, everything I have done to show you that I love you...

0:05:23 > 0:05:27..I see it now. It tells you that I cannot be trusted.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31I chase you, or I run away from you.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Darling, if only I could show you...

0:05:39 > 0:05:40..I am constant.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45If I had the chance to prove to you...

0:05:45 > 0:05:48I have spent most of my life with no mother.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51I know how to take care of a man.

0:05:52 > 0:05:56I will be your haven.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58I promise you.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Could it be different between us?

0:06:04 > 0:06:05Is that what you want?

0:06:07 > 0:06:12I long for peace, to settle my soul...

0:06:42 > 0:06:43Cheer up.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Arthur?

0:06:48 > 0:06:50You are like the ghost of a dog sometimes,

0:06:50 > 0:06:55- skulking in doorways without a sound.- Clara...

0:06:55 > 0:06:59- do you like Sam?- Course I do.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02Sam's his own fool, that's all.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06- Do you like Mr Moray?- Arthur, why are you asking such questions?

0:07:06 > 0:07:13- Do you like...Mr Jonas? - It's not so easy to like a shadow.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17Look, I don't have time for prattle when I could be enjoying a drink.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:07:27 > 0:07:28DOOR OPENS

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Papa, I will be fine by morning.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35No, you won't.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40I have watched you getting worse.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Katherine, what are we going to do about this?

0:07:50 > 0:07:52I have tried with Peter.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Honestly, I tried my very best.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57I know you did.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Papa...

0:08:01 > 0:08:03..Moray is only shy of marriage

0:08:03 > 0:08:06because of his need to be true to Helene.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10It is a kind of honour in him.

0:08:10 > 0:08:11I love him for it.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17And it is beyond bearing for me.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21I don't know that I can love any man after loving Moray.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23He loves me, but...

0:08:27 > 0:08:30..how long might it be before he is ready to marry?

0:08:33 > 0:08:38Perhaps it will be sooner than you imagine, my darling.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43No more tears. Sleep.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48I want you to look your best tomorrow morning.

0:09:04 > 0:09:08Denise, are you awake? I'm awake.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Oh, Pauline...

0:09:11 > 0:09:14I'm awake. Now.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15I can't sleep.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18As soon as I close my eyes I see lovebirds.

0:09:18 > 0:09:22What if I don't sell any? I might be back on buttons.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Or worse. Oh, I shan't sleep all night long now.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28But will you talk all night long, Pauline?

0:09:28 > 0:09:31I shall lie here until dawn thinking of birds.

0:10:04 > 0:10:08Clara, captain the ship for half an hour.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12Denise, accompany me, please.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17What is it, Miss Audrey? What have I done?

0:10:20 > 0:10:21Sit.

0:10:28 > 0:10:29Tell me.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33What am I to tell you, Miss Audrey?

0:10:33 > 0:10:36I have supervised girls since before you were born.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39I know love when I see it. It never fails to disturb me.

0:10:39 > 0:10:43The girl is either floating on a cloud of giddy pink delight,

0:10:43 > 0:10:46sadly, those are usually the ones who lose their position.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Or it comes as pain.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52Who is he?

0:10:54 > 0:10:58Ma'am, I promise, I am not...

0:11:01 > 0:11:02I do not mean to be in love.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Oh, Lord. It is Mr Moray.

0:11:04 > 0:11:08I truly do not wish to feel this way, Miss Audrey.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11And every day I try to stop myself.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14I tell myself it is hopeless.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17I try to push away the feelings.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19But they insist.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21They will not be quieted.

0:11:23 > 0:11:24Oh, Lord.

0:11:24 > 0:11:29I want you to listen carefully, child. You are doomed.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31Feelings are only feelings.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Feelings pass if we do not act on them.

0:11:33 > 0:11:37If, however, you stray into that treacherous world of divulgence...

0:11:37 > 0:11:39I would never dream of telling Mr Moray.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41You would not be the first girl who found herself

0:11:41 > 0:11:43overcome by the moment.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Let me speak most simply.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Whilst he is your employer you are free to be his pet,

0:11:49 > 0:11:53his "little champion" and he will foster your advancement.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56One kiss and you will be a woman to him.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59You will be as Clara is,

0:11:59 > 0:12:04permitted to remain but never to advance.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Any form of favour towards you would be tainted.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10You have ambition.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12I do not know what might become of such ambition in a woman,

0:12:12 > 0:12:15but I do know a kiss will destroy it.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17What should I do?

0:12:17 > 0:12:22Devotion to a new cause. The mission of denial.

0:12:24 > 0:12:25Can you do that?

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Do you suppose it would be wrong for us to give them names, Pauline?

0:12:33 > 0:12:37I have already named most of them, sir. This one's Bertie,

0:12:37 > 0:12:43- and his mate's Sally.- Mr Dudley, I wonder if I might consult with you

0:12:43 > 0:12:47- about a rather delicate matter? - Yes, of course.

0:12:47 > 0:12:51For the first time in all my years here I wish I were a customer.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54I would take Sally and Bertie home with me.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56If I could afford them.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Sam, might I practise selling a bird to you?

0:13:05 > 0:13:07I will try to persuade you to buy

0:13:07 > 0:13:11- and you see if you are tempted or not tempted.- Right, go on then.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Right start at the door and walk in, go on.

0:13:17 > 0:13:22Well, these birds, sir, are so pleasing that...to see them

0:13:22 > 0:13:26every morning as you wake up, so happy together,

0:13:26 > 0:13:30so lovely with their hopping about to delight each other.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34These birds, sir, would make any heart glad to face the day.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37- I'll take a pair.- Really?

0:13:38 > 0:13:39No.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44What do you think of Denise, Mr Dudley?

0:13:44 > 0:13:48She's a fine girl. Keen to learn. Fine.

0:13:48 > 0:13:53What I mean is what do you think of her...potential?

0:13:53 > 0:13:56She'll do well.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Let me approach this another way.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02When I was young I considered myself reasonably attractive.

0:14:02 > 0:14:06- You still shine, Miss Audrey. - Oh, thank you, sir.

0:14:06 > 0:14:12Pauline has a pleasing quality, Clara a seductive attraction.

0:14:12 > 0:14:13But, Denise...

0:14:15 > 0:14:16Is it my imagination

0:14:16 > 0:14:18or does this girl posses something in her which..?

0:14:18 > 0:14:22There is a quality about her. A kind of essence.

0:14:22 > 0:14:27As I feared. As I so gravely feared.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36- Denise?- Yes, sir?

0:14:36 > 0:14:38- The lovebirds?- Yes, sir?

0:14:38 > 0:14:41It occurred to me we might present goods for gentleman

0:14:41 > 0:14:45on the ladies' counters, for example, cuff links on the perfume counter.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48And on men's grooming, we might present some of those

0:14:48 > 0:14:52hand-carved combs and silver purses for the ladies?

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- Sir...- So that couples might shop together. What do you think?

0:14:56 > 0:15:01- Why do you ask me, sir?- Well, because you are my little champion.

0:15:01 > 0:15:06- We might decorate this store in the theme of love.- Love?

0:15:06 > 0:15:10Perhaps on the stationery counter we might display romantic cards and...

0:15:12 > 0:15:14..scented paper.

0:15:14 > 0:15:18What is it, Denise? Has something upset you?

0:15:18 > 0:15:19No, sir, I erm...

0:15:21 > 0:15:25Only I had a falling out with one of the girls, about the bird counter.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31Ah, yes. Pauline. She is rather keen to shine.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Mr Moray, sir?

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Feathers.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41- Feathers?- Yes, feathers.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44They might be our theme for Ladieswear,

0:15:44 > 0:15:46since those delightful little winged charmers

0:15:46 > 0:15:48are attracting so much attention.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Ah, yes. Feathers. Of course.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Thank you, Miss Audrey.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Denise, perhaps you might help me

0:15:55 > 0:15:58plan a resplendent display of plumes? Come along.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15Now, you throw this into the first square.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17This game was handed down to me by my father

0:16:17 > 0:16:19and came from his father before him.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23Now, you must land it inside the square.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Single squares, one foot. Double squares, two feet.

0:16:32 > 0:16:33Off you go.

0:16:42 > 0:16:46What is it, lad? When I were a boy I jumped like Billy-o.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49If you sold your shop what would you do?

0:16:49 > 0:16:50I'm not selling. Who said I was selling?

0:16:50 > 0:16:53No-one did. But if you did, like Burroughs did...

0:16:53 > 0:16:56I'm sot selling. Never selling.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Would you just leave? Never come back? Like Burroughs?

0:16:59 > 0:17:03Why would I do that? This street is all I've ever known.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06It's just I don't think Burroughs wanted...

0:17:06 > 0:17:08What's Burroughs to do with a game of peevers?

0:17:09 > 0:17:14Now, I've been told to cheer up and that I will. Watch.

0:17:23 > 0:17:27Will you be joining us on the Sunday walk this week, Denise?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Best day there is for a walk, a Sunday.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31That's mostly because we're at work every other day.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34And it's a good way to get rid of a sore head.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Not that I ever have a sore head.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38I sold a bird!

0:17:38 > 0:17:42I said, "madam, these love-creatures will bring you such happiness.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45"More than happiness. Joy.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48"Every day of your life, madam." Mr Moray saw me.

0:17:48 > 0:17:52"Every day will begin with a picture of heavenly joy."

0:17:52 > 0:17:53Pauline, you are a triumph.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56Have you sold Sally? Tell me you haven't sold Sally and Bertie.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00Er, no, sir. Not Bertie nor Sally. I said they weren't the best ones.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11I only became aware of this because he is a customer at the bank.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Conrad Jessop.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17By Friday week he'll own the lease on every property on the street.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25My buying the barber-shop has alerted him to my intentions,

0:18:25 > 0:18:30so now I have to go to him if I wish to expand further down the street?

0:18:31 > 0:18:33It's worse than that, Moray.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38I'm breaking every principle of banking practice

0:18:38 > 0:18:40by bringing this knowledge to you.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44Jessop intends to buy up all the leases

0:18:44 > 0:18:46on both sides of Tollgate Street.

0:18:46 > 0:18:53- The Paradise?- He'll be your landlord. Once Jessop owns the Fee Simple,

0:18:53 > 0:18:56he's not going to sell a single lease to you at any price.

0:18:56 > 0:19:03He'll rent. On short terms. You will be at his mercy.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06The more successful you are, the more he'll squeeze you.

0:19:06 > 0:19:10As you grow, you'll dread his very name.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17I am thankful that you have forewarned me, your Lordship.

0:19:17 > 0:19:21Though I suspect you wished to do more than give me notice.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27I could purchase those leases.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30Is that your purpose?

0:19:30 > 0:19:32My business is banking.

0:19:32 > 0:19:37I have no wish to take on a property portfolio at my age.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39Then I am left to deal with Conrad Jessop.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47Suppose I were to increase your loan?

0:19:49 > 0:19:52That way you might purchase the Fee Simple yourself.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54You'd be landlord of the whole street.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58When the leases on the smaller shops expire,

0:19:58 > 0:20:01you can refuse to renew them.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08It would have to be a substantial advance, your Lordship.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12I see no other way to overcome this...impasse.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15And you would be willing to do that?

0:20:28 > 0:20:29For you.

0:20:29 > 0:20:33New boots? For me, sir?

0:20:37 > 0:20:39Why me, sir?

0:20:39 > 0:20:41How old do you think I am, Arthur?

0:20:41 > 0:20:43I don't know, sir. 100?

0:20:43 > 0:20:45HE LAUGHS

0:20:45 > 0:20:48Almost. I won't last for ever though, son.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55I see you. You're not a counter-jumper like Sam.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59You see things. Like I do. Mr Moray will need you.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05Do you think you can do my job after I've gone, Arthur?

0:21:08 > 0:21:09That would be a fine thing, sir.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12I will tell you the things that I notice

0:21:12 > 0:21:14and you can tell me the things that you notice.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16Does that sound fair?

0:21:18 > 0:21:20So what we have to do, Arthur, is notice

0:21:20 > 0:21:23when a person has something on their mind.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Do you have something on your mind?

0:21:26 > 0:21:28Nothing, sir.

0:21:28 > 0:21:32Hold your hand up, son. Look at mine. Dead still.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35A man with nothing to hide.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38Show me your hand, son.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Do you have something on your mind, Arthur?

0:21:48 > 0:21:50Yes, sir.

0:21:50 > 0:21:51You want to tell me what it is?

0:21:51 > 0:21:55Let me help you...is it Burroughs?

0:21:55 > 0:22:00I saw him get into your carriage, sir, on the night he vanished away.

0:22:05 > 0:22:13Good lad. Now, it's not so wise to spend your time with Edmund Lovett.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15He's not Mr Moray's best pal, is he?

0:22:27 > 0:22:30I owe you an apology, Moray.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Well, I can't imagine why, sir.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35I stood in your way with Katherine.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38From the beginning I have signalled my uncertainty,

0:22:38 > 0:22:42issued warnings, "If you break her heart, I'll ruin you".

0:22:42 > 0:22:46No wonder you hesitate. I was wrong.

0:22:46 > 0:22:51I wish now to offer you my blessing, indeed, my encouragement,

0:22:51 > 0:22:54to speak to Katherine.

0:22:54 > 0:22:55Sir...

0:22:56 > 0:22:57..why have you, er..?

0:23:00 > 0:23:03You behaved quite admirably, Moray.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05It all makes sense to me now.

0:23:06 > 0:23:10I slept well last night for the first time in weeks.

0:23:10 > 0:23:11Katherine is contrary,

0:23:11 > 0:23:17but she clearly loves you and it is time her father respected that.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22Besides, you and I, Moray, we're as good as partners now.

0:23:22 > 0:23:26Once you've bought those leases, you've nothing to fear.

0:23:26 > 0:23:27You can rest at ease,

0:23:27 > 0:23:30knowing that nothing can threaten the existence of your business.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35Gentlemen, I'll detain you no longer.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39What did he want?

0:23:41 > 0:23:46He gave me his blessing...to speak with Katherine.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49That is no small thing, Moray.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51If ever there was a forbidding father.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54To have Glendenning's favour...

0:23:54 > 0:23:56surely you can see what is right before you?

0:23:56 > 0:24:00Every way you look at it, Moray, it is what you must do.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02Wake up, man! Before it is too late.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Customers come through that door and here you are, Pauline.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11I mean what could be better?

0:24:11 > 0:24:13The birds do look pretty, but what I am learning is,

0:24:13 > 0:24:16they're so clever. Sometimes I think they are cleverer than me.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18The birds look at me now like they know me.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20I've never seen you looking so happy.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23I shall be on this counter until I marry.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29I've heard tales of birds sitting on men's heads.

0:24:29 > 0:24:33- Standing on their hands. - Wouldn't that be something?

0:24:33 > 0:24:36If customers were to see me standing here with a bird on my head...

0:24:36 > 0:24:39- I'd be careful, Pauline, I wouldn't do that.- I shall be the main attraction of The Paradise.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42I...I wouldn't be... Oh, no!

0:24:42 > 0:24:43Oh, Sam!

0:24:43 > 0:24:45Oh, no! Oh, Sam!

0:24:45 > 0:24:50- Oh, no!- Don't worry, I'm sure she's not gone far.- Sally?!

0:24:50 > 0:24:53She might come back of her own accord.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56Where's she gone? I can't see her.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00We'll get her back, don't you worry. We'll get her back.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Oh, no.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05I'm told those birds can live up to 15 years.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07It seems such a shame, sir, to keep them in cages,

0:25:07 > 0:25:09when I reckon they'd roast up a treat.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11You have new boots, Arthur.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18- From Mr Jonas, sir. - That is most kind of him.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21He is teaching me to be like him, sir.

0:25:21 > 0:25:25- He must think a lot of you. - Yes, sir. I suppose so, sir.

0:25:25 > 0:25:29Only, I've never known Mr Jonas favour anyone before.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31- Why would he favour you? - I don't know, sir.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34You look so afraid. What is there to be scared of?

0:25:34 > 0:25:36What has Mr Jonas said to you?

0:25:39 > 0:25:41Can I go now, sir?

0:25:41 > 0:25:42Arthur.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47You can come to me at any time.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50You can tell me what it is you are afraid of. You're safe with me.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56Will I have to tell Mr Moray and Mr Dudley what has happened?

0:25:56 > 0:25:59You cannot admit anything. They will have no choice but to dismiss you.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02- That bird is worth five guineas. - What else is there?

0:26:02 > 0:26:04We have to get the bird back.

0:26:04 > 0:26:07It has vanished. It can fly. It might be miles away by now.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11It will be somewhere. It has to be found.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13- But they will see that it is gone. - We'll cover up the fact

0:26:13 > 0:26:15that it is lost until we find it.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28There will not be a day, not one single day,

0:26:28 > 0:26:31when you regret this, darling. I will not permit it.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36I will spoil you with love.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05Dudley, I have some news.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09You can claim all of the credit.

0:27:11 > 0:27:13What are you doing here at this time of night?

0:27:13 > 0:27:14I have been waiting to speak with you.

0:27:14 > 0:27:19- What is it that's troubling you? - Young Arthur. He's afraid of Jonas.

0:27:20 > 0:27:24Is that it? We are all afraid of Jonas.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27He wears an air of menace like a shroud.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31It is all part of his success. It's what makes him so useful to us.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35He bought the lad some boots. Why does that disturb me?

0:27:35 > 0:27:38It seems to signify something to me, and I can't quite grasp it.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42Hmm. It is best to leave Jonas to me.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44You two always manage to grate at one another.

0:27:44 > 0:27:48Are you suggesting it is my personal sensitivity to the man?

0:27:48 > 0:27:51Speak to Arthur yourself. See his fear with your own eyes.

0:27:51 > 0:27:56I will speak with Jonas. Go home. You have a family.

0:27:58 > 0:27:59I will deal with Jonas tonight.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04What was your news?

0:28:08 > 0:28:11Arthur saw Burroughs getting into a carriage with me

0:28:11 > 0:28:13on the night that he vanished.

0:28:13 > 0:28:17None of this was of your making, Mr Moray. It was his.

0:28:17 > 0:28:23Burroughs. He was intent on ruining you. To tell his tale.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26How he came into the store, Sunday morning.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30How he found you standing over your wife's body.

0:28:31 > 0:28:35She fell, by accident.

0:28:35 > 0:28:36And what he heard you say.

0:28:39 > 0:28:40What have I done?

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Any man might say such a thing.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49Helene fell.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53I did not kill her.

0:28:53 > 0:28:57- She...she fell.- I know that, sir.

0:28:57 > 0:29:02But your innocence would not protect you from Burroughs' accusations.

0:29:02 > 0:29:05If you gave him what he demanded, he would have wanted more,

0:29:05 > 0:29:09he would have gone on, hounded you with slanders,

0:29:09 > 0:29:13threats to ruin your reputation, destroy all that you have created.

0:29:15 > 0:29:19Why should this man be permitted to feed on suspicion and gossip?

0:29:22 > 0:29:24I know what they whisper about me.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28- What if I deserve the things they say?- No, sir.

0:29:29 > 0:29:32Why was he permitted to dishonour your wife's memory?

0:29:35 > 0:29:38I am a fool to think that I could live again,

0:29:38 > 0:29:40to believe that I could settle.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44The boy does not appreciate the meaning of what he saw.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49He has made a friend of Edmund Lovett, but he will say nothing.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53This business will pass, sir.

0:30:20 > 0:30:22HE BANGS ON THE DOOR

0:30:22 > 0:30:24Is the world on fire?

0:30:27 > 0:30:31- Mr Lovett.- What right have you to hammer on my door before dawn?

0:30:31 > 0:30:35The chalk writings on the ground, outside of The Paradise.

0:30:35 > 0:30:38What writing on the ground? What are you talking about?

0:30:38 > 0:30:42When Mr Moray comes down he will see what you have scrawled on the ground

0:30:42 > 0:30:46and this time I am sure he will fetch the constable.

0:30:46 > 0:30:50You cannot make such a charge. Fetch the constable. Fetch him.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53Who saw me do this, eh? No-one. I've done nothing.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59What are you doing? You have no right. This is my shop.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03What will your niece think of this?

0:31:03 > 0:31:06What sort of madness is this? This is my shop.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08You will leave now.

0:31:08 > 0:31:13You cannot even provide work for her. The whole street knows it.

0:31:13 > 0:31:18Denise knows it. Now you bring shame on her.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22I'm so sorry. I don't know why I ...

0:31:24 > 0:31:26I'm sorry.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31You are a dangerous man, Mr Lovett.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50Heavens, Mr Jonas! What has happened to you?

0:31:50 > 0:31:52I am sorry to come to your door.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56Will you assist me, Miss Audrey?

0:32:11 > 0:32:12Who did this to you?

0:32:13 > 0:32:15Edmund Lovett.

0:32:15 > 0:32:20Why would Edmund...why would Mr Lovett do such a thing?

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Miss Audrey, may I take you into my confidence?

0:32:24 > 0:32:26You and Edmund Lovett were close once?

0:32:28 > 0:32:30That was a long time ago.

0:32:31 > 0:32:35Since his niece came here he has been a man crazed with anger.

0:32:36 > 0:32:41A man who can lose all restraint. I fear for his sanity.

0:32:42 > 0:32:46Do you see my point, Audrey? What might he become capable of?

0:32:48 > 0:32:49Will you speak with him?

0:32:49 > 0:32:54Can you...counsel him, how can I express it?

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Encourage him to remove himself from the street?

0:33:00 > 0:33:02For his own sake.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14Why does he not bring the constable? I'm ruined.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16No more than a criminal.

0:33:16 > 0:33:17Why would you do such a thing?

0:33:17 > 0:33:20He accused me of scrawling slanders on the ground.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23Oh, Uncle, I feared something like this might happen.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25But that is not why you took your fist to him, is it?

0:33:25 > 0:33:30He said it was shameful...I could not provide work for my own niece.

0:33:30 > 0:33:35I...I could speak to Mr Moray. Plead on your behalf?

0:33:35 > 0:33:37No. Not that. Never that!

0:33:37 > 0:33:38Oh, Edmund...

0:33:40 > 0:33:42I will call on you this evening.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46Come along, Denise, we must get back.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48Why does he not bring the constable?

0:33:54 > 0:33:55KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:33:55 > 0:33:56Yes?

0:34:01 > 0:34:04Mr Jonas, sir, I would like to apologise.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07My uncle has been anxious just lately.

0:34:07 > 0:34:11But he promises me it was not him who made those marks on the ground.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13Any man would deny it.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16I believe my uncle, sir.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18No man, not your uncle,

0:34:18 > 0:34:22nor any man shall cast a shadow on that lady's grave.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26You told me when I first came here,

0:34:26 > 0:34:29that it was forbidden even to speak of Mrs Moray.

0:34:32 > 0:34:35Sir, why is Mr Moray's grief so tender?

0:34:36 > 0:34:40I came to this city having given up hope in other cities.

0:34:42 > 0:34:45I heard there might be work here, at The Paradise.

0:34:45 > 0:34:48I came to the tradesmen's entrance and they turned me away.

0:34:49 > 0:34:54A man with only one arm is not considered much use to anyone.

0:34:54 > 0:34:59Then, by chance, I met Mrs Moray on the street.

0:35:02 > 0:35:06Wherever I called I was met with questions. Who are you?

0:35:06 > 0:35:09Where are you from? Why are you here?

0:35:09 > 0:35:12All leading to one question, how did you lose your arm?

0:35:12 > 0:35:16Helene asked me nothing.

0:35:16 > 0:35:18She saw my need and took pity.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Yet there was no pity in her face.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26She asked me to help her with some parcels.

0:35:27 > 0:35:31She asked me to help her...

0:35:34 > 0:35:36..and the rest of the day is a fog to me.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39She persuaded Mr Moray to give me work.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41I was given a uniform and some rooms.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44I barely saw her after that.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46Three weeks later she was dead.

0:35:46 > 0:35:51Oh. Mr Jonas, sir, I am so sorry.

0:35:51 > 0:35:54I can understand why you would take offence at anyone...

0:35:54 > 0:35:57Any man who stands against the memory of that woman,

0:35:57 > 0:35:59stands against me.

0:36:15 > 0:36:19Mr Dudley, sir, the blue satin we brought in two weeks ago,

0:36:19 > 0:36:21it's not selling. I think it's over-priced.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23Will you take a look at it for me, sir?

0:36:31 > 0:36:34Just a minute, Sam.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Have you had an accident, Jonas?

0:36:36 > 0:36:38It is rather unsightly, sir.

0:36:38 > 0:36:41I will make my presence scarce so as not to disturb our customers.

0:36:41 > 0:36:43How did you do such a thing?

0:36:43 > 0:36:48Your concern is appreciated, sir. It will be well again soon enough.

0:36:48 > 0:36:49Did you fall?

0:36:49 > 0:36:54- As you know, sir, I never take a drink.- Jonas, I am your manager.

0:36:54 > 0:36:56I am asking you how this came about.

0:36:58 > 0:37:02I am here, sir, on the floor, fit for work.

0:37:02 > 0:37:05Why do you refuse to respect my authority?

0:37:05 > 0:37:09If I may? I do not doubt your authority, Mr Dudley.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11Customers approach us, sir.

0:37:11 > 0:37:13I will remove myself, as I promised I would.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15You will tell me, do you understand?

0:37:15 > 0:37:17You will tell me what the cause of this is.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22I was attacked, by Edmund Lovett.

0:37:25 > 0:37:26KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Yes...yes!

0:37:30 > 0:37:33Mr Moray, sir, I would like to explain my uncle...

0:37:35 > 0:37:37Mr Moray?

0:37:38 > 0:37:41Sir, what is it?

0:37:43 > 0:37:47I try to live in a world without feeling, Denise.

0:37:49 > 0:37:53I wish to feel...

0:37:53 > 0:37:54nothing.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58Please do not punish yourself this way.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01I have spent three years refusing love...

0:38:03 > 0:38:07Until I find that all I can do is...pretend.

0:38:11 > 0:38:13What have I done?

0:38:13 > 0:38:15Please, Mr Moray.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22Will you call me John?

0:38:24 > 0:38:26I long to be called by my name.

0:38:30 > 0:38:32John...

0:38:39 > 0:38:41I love you, John.

0:38:41 > 0:38:46I cannot help myself. I promised myself I'd never tell you.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48But I love you.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51I love you so that I cannot sleep and I cannot think

0:38:51 > 0:38:54and I cannot remember my own name half the time.

0:39:08 > 0:39:09KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:39:09 > 0:39:12Mr Moray, sir, Mr Jonas has been attacked, sir.

0:39:12 > 0:39:16- Attacked?- Sir, Mr Dudley is shouting at Mr Jonas.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18Please, sir, you ought to come.

0:39:33 > 0:39:37Girls, ask yourselves, is every corner of Ladieswear sumptuous?

0:39:37 > 0:39:40And if not, then ask yourselves, why is it not sumptuous?

0:39:40 > 0:39:42Yes, Miss Audrey.

0:39:51 > 0:39:54Clara, captain the ship for a short while.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08Girl, you will contain yourself!

0:40:10 > 0:40:13Edmund Lovett is as placid a man as I have ever known.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16He has been railing against us for months.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19Moray, ask yourself, what was Jonas doing in Lovett's shop at that hour?

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Why do you have this blind spot for this man?

0:40:21 > 0:40:24Jonas is beyond himself. Something is wrong,

0:40:24 > 0:40:26and I intend to find out what it is.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Darling, have you told Dudley our news?

0:40:29 > 0:40:32Katherine, this is not the moment.

0:40:32 > 0:40:36- Good morning, Miss Glendenning.- We are hoping to announce it today.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39Then let me be the first to congratulate you.

0:40:39 > 0:40:42Thank you. Katherine, please, might I have a moment with Dudley?

0:40:42 > 0:40:45Nonsense. If you will excuse me.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Your happiness is far more important than the business of the store.

0:40:56 > 0:41:01All is not lost, I am sure of it. Clara has erred and remained.

0:41:01 > 0:41:03You must as quickly as possible

0:41:03 > 0:41:06show Mr Moray that you respect him as your employer.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Make clear to him that you know your place.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12Miss Audrey, I believe that John feels as I do.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15John? Who is John?

0:41:15 > 0:41:16Mr Moray.

0:41:17 > 0:41:21He looked at me in such a way...

0:41:21 > 0:41:24I would never have imagined that such self-deception might

0:41:24 > 0:41:25come from you.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29You are a shop girl.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31I know what I saw... please believe me?

0:41:31 > 0:41:36Oh, child, I believe that you saw it. Love. Devotion.

0:41:36 > 0:41:40A magical union beyond description. But that does not mean it was there.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43This is the moment which will decide your life.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48You can turn back now and do as I have suggested.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50Or you can go on, along a path

0:41:50 > 0:41:52that can only bring suffering and heartbreak.

0:41:52 > 0:41:54It is for you to decide.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02Arthur, where is Mr Jonas?

0:42:02 > 0:42:05He's nowhere to be found, sir. I have looked and I have looked again.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15Perhaps, Moray, if you will permit me

0:42:15 > 0:42:18to take this opportunity to share your wonderful news?

0:42:18 > 0:42:20Yes. Yes, of course.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23Ladies and gentlemen, if I can have your attention, please?

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Mr Moray and Miss Glendenning will today announce their engagement

0:42:26 > 0:42:29to be married. I am sure you will all join me in wishing them

0:42:29 > 0:42:32as much happiness as they can bear.

0:42:32 > 0:42:33THEY APPLAUD

0:42:38 > 0:42:41Miss Glendenning, let me be the first to congratulate you.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Thank you, Miss Audrey.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55Sir...

0:42:56 > 0:42:59..I've no right to ask you this, sir.

0:42:59 > 0:43:03One night of holding you, I know it does not give me liberty to dare.

0:43:03 > 0:43:06- But do you love her?- Clara...

0:43:06 > 0:43:08Forgive me, sir, but as you stood beside her today,

0:43:08 > 0:43:11I looked for it, I believe I wanted to see your happiness,

0:43:11 > 0:43:14but I couldn't find it. Now if you tell me I am wrong...

0:43:14 > 0:43:18What you say is true, Clara, you have no right to ask such a thing.

0:43:18 > 0:43:22Denise, don't you want to wish Mr Moray well?

0:43:22 > 0:43:26This is the happiest day of his life.

0:43:26 > 0:43:30He told me so himself. Isn't that right, sir?

0:43:30 > 0:43:33I am very glad for you, Mr Moray.

0:43:38 > 0:43:43Mr Moray, sir, what are you doing in Ladieswear on a day like today?

0:43:43 > 0:43:48I'm sure you have plans to make, celebrations to attend to.

0:43:48 > 0:43:50Today is not a day for small matters.

0:43:50 > 0:43:53You must go and be with your betrothed! Go, please, go!

0:44:01 > 0:44:02KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:44:02 > 0:44:03Come in.

0:44:12 > 0:44:14How are we to put an end to this, Clara?

0:44:17 > 0:44:19Mr Moray told you?

0:44:19 > 0:44:22You know I don't want to lose you from The Paradise,

0:44:22 > 0:44:24and I believe you wish to remain.

0:44:24 > 0:44:26Do you imagine I want to trick him into marrying me,

0:44:26 > 0:44:29or some foolish fancy like that?

0:44:29 > 0:44:30You fell pregnant once.

0:44:32 > 0:44:33Huh...

0:44:35 > 0:44:37Well, it's true what they say...

0:44:37 > 0:44:40there are no secrets in The Paradise.

0:44:40 > 0:44:44Can you see, Clara, I am only trying to find what is best for you?

0:44:44 > 0:44:46Well, if I'd had a father like you

0:44:46 > 0:44:48perhaps I wouldn't be the woman I am today.

0:44:48 > 0:44:50Moray does not love you. He will never...

0:44:50 > 0:44:53I know. I know.

0:44:53 > 0:44:55Then you will cease from pursuing him.

0:44:55 > 0:44:58I hope I am absolutely clear to you. No more.

0:44:58 > 0:45:01Whatever happens, Clara, if you wish to keep your position here,

0:45:01 > 0:45:05you will restrain yourself and you will not seek out Mr Moray.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08Do you understand?

0:45:08 > 0:45:10Do you understand?

0:45:20 > 0:45:22You were the gentlest man I ever knew.

0:45:22 > 0:45:26Too gentle for you own good. People took advantage of you.

0:45:26 > 0:45:28- I often wonder if I took advantage of you.- Never.

0:45:30 > 0:45:31Are you drinking, Edmund?

0:45:31 > 0:45:34What a thing to say. Why would you say such a thing?

0:45:34 > 0:45:36To do that to a man, something is wrong.

0:45:36 > 0:45:40- Do you see?- Yes, something is wrong. The Paradise is wrong.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42It is Moray that is wrong.

0:45:42 > 0:45:45Look down the street, across the city. Who else behaves as you do?

0:45:45 > 0:45:48Well, what am I to do? Lie down? Submit? Retreat?

0:45:48 > 0:45:53Yes. Now. Now is the time for you to accept.

0:45:53 > 0:45:55Before you destroy yourself.

0:45:55 > 0:45:59Did he send you? Did Moray get you to persuade me?

0:46:01 > 0:46:04No. Mr Moray did not send me.

0:46:12 > 0:46:13You frighten me, Edmund.

0:46:14 > 0:46:18I've learned my lesson. I will contain myself.

0:46:18 > 0:46:20I will not let myself get too easily riled.

0:46:21 > 0:46:23I know I'm defeated.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26That's what makes it so unbearable.

0:46:26 > 0:46:29I would sell but there would be no-one to buy but Moray.

0:46:29 > 0:46:31I cannot do that.

0:46:31 > 0:46:35Mr Moray is only a monster in your imagination.

0:46:35 > 0:46:39Edmund, can you picture yourself set free from this daily battle?

0:46:40 > 0:46:44If you continue, it will get worse. That is the only way it can go.

0:46:45 > 0:46:48You are doing this to yourself, not Mr Moray.

0:46:48 > 0:46:53Let it go, Edmund. Let it go.

0:46:55 > 0:46:59I have decided, Mr Dudley, that I cannot remain at The Paradise.

0:47:02 > 0:47:05But it may be determined, Denise, that this unfortunate business

0:47:05 > 0:47:08was not of your uncle's making.

0:47:08 > 0:47:10Your kindness is appreciated, Mr Dudley,

0:47:10 > 0:47:16but, there will be other instances, I feel sure of it.

0:47:16 > 0:47:19The situation is too fraught with difficulties.

0:47:19 > 0:47:22If I were to speak to your uncle?

0:47:22 > 0:47:26Sir, if I were to stay, every day I would be wondering

0:47:26 > 0:47:28when this situation might inflame again.

0:47:29 > 0:47:33I am sorry to leave. Truly.

0:47:39 > 0:47:42But you said yourself your uncle's shop could not support you.

0:47:43 > 0:47:45We'll find a way to survive.

0:47:45 > 0:47:48But you're part of The Paradise now, Denise.

0:47:51 > 0:47:55I'll still see you. I will just be across the street.

0:47:55 > 0:47:57I promise.

0:47:57 > 0:48:02It makes no sense to leave because of something your uncle's done.

0:48:02 > 0:48:05Clara, can we be friends now?

0:48:05 > 0:48:10Please. It would mean so much to me.

0:48:10 > 0:48:12It was you that said that it is the chance of where you are born

0:48:12 > 0:48:17that gives you a bond. Can that be our kinship? Shop girls.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21I so dearly want to be your friend.

0:48:28 > 0:48:31I suppose there will be a position in Ladieswear now.

0:48:41 > 0:48:43Denise? What are you doing?

0:48:46 > 0:48:47Denise?

0:48:50 > 0:48:54We are together now, Uncle. Family. As you wished.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56As I wish, too.

0:49:15 > 0:49:16No, Sam.

0:49:21 > 0:49:23Pauline, have you sold Sally?

0:49:24 > 0:49:26Pauline, answer the question.

0:49:27 > 0:49:29Not sold, sir.

0:49:30 > 0:49:34- Then where is she? - Gone, sir. Flown away.

0:49:34 > 0:49:36I opened the cage to stand her on my hand and the door was open

0:49:36 > 0:49:39and she flew away.

0:49:43 > 0:49:48It took courage to admit that. Let's see what we can do.

0:49:48 > 0:49:52- Am I not dismissed, sir?- I spoke to a man up at the Old Moor,

0:49:52 > 0:49:55he knows all there is to know about birds. I think we can get her back.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06It's my doing, isn't it?

0:50:06 > 0:50:10I am the reason you left, the reason you have no job, no money?

0:50:10 > 0:50:13Uncle, I don't suppose you will understand,

0:50:13 > 0:50:18but I promise you it is not so. I left The Paradise because...

0:50:21 > 0:50:24Because it pained me to remain there.

0:50:26 > 0:50:30If Bertie is pining, Sally will be too.

0:50:37 > 0:50:41Sally! Sally!

0:50:41 > 0:50:43Best not to call out, Pauline. You'll frighten her.

0:50:43 > 0:50:44What do we do now then?

0:50:44 > 0:50:46We wait.

0:50:56 > 0:51:00It will be all right, Uncle. We will make a living.

0:51:00 > 0:51:02It is not so easy now.

0:51:05 > 0:51:09We will find ways to be different from The Paradise.

0:51:19 > 0:51:20Look.

0:51:22 > 0:51:27Stay quiet now, let's wait for her to come down.

0:51:30 > 0:51:36I've noticed one or two men...some men...

0:51:36 > 0:51:41there's a fashion for men to wear neckties instead of cravats.

0:51:41 > 0:51:42I wonder...

0:51:42 > 0:51:46You want me to make neckties? I'm a dressmaker.

0:51:46 > 0:51:50How many dresses have you sold this week? This month?

0:51:51 > 0:51:55You are the finest dressmaker in this city, as far as I can see.

0:51:55 > 0:51:56But we need to earn a living.

0:51:56 > 0:52:02People will be more willing to part with a small amount of money,

0:52:02 > 0:52:06what they might have in their pockets. What they can afford

0:52:06 > 0:52:07when the impulse takes them.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09Neckties.

0:52:09 > 0:52:11Well, I will make as splendid a job of making them as any man.

0:52:11 > 0:52:15We could display them out on a table outside of the shop.

0:52:15 > 0:52:19What, on the street? Isn't that no better than a market stall?

0:52:19 > 0:52:22Perhaps. But it will put food in our bellies

0:52:22 > 0:52:24and we might earn enough to paint the front of the shop

0:52:24 > 0:52:27if we work at it. We could make pillow cases...

0:52:27 > 0:52:28Pillow cases?!

0:52:28 > 0:52:30Embroidered.

0:52:30 > 0:52:34Uncle, will you trust me to steer things along for a little while?

0:52:37 > 0:52:38I will.

0:52:43 > 0:52:46Mr Dudley, I would like to go back to haberdashery.

0:52:46 > 0:52:49But, you love the birds.

0:52:49 > 0:52:52- Buttons don't fly away. - Birds are a passing fancy.

0:52:52 > 0:52:55Ribbons and notions, they'll keep us in business for years to come.

0:53:04 > 0:53:08She insisted. She would brook no reason nor imploring.

0:53:10 > 0:53:12Thank you, Dudley.

0:53:13 > 0:53:15Are we to take on a new girl, sir?

0:53:16 > 0:53:19Yes. Of course.

0:53:23 > 0:53:25I have a boxful of applications.

0:53:25 > 0:53:28Perhaps we might wait a day or so.

0:53:29 > 0:53:30As you wish, sir.

0:53:38 > 0:53:41Jonas, if I might speak with you, please.

0:53:48 > 0:53:53You did this, didn't you? You caused Edmund Lovett to attack you!

0:53:53 > 0:53:56You said yourself you were fearful of what he might do

0:53:56 > 0:53:58- to lash out at you.- I did not ask you to do this.

0:53:58 > 0:53:59You did not need to ask, sir.

0:53:59 > 0:54:04How dare you! You cannot do this to me, do you understand?

0:54:04 > 0:54:06What makes you think you can take another man's life?

0:54:08 > 0:54:12My duty, sir, is to protect you. It is what Helene would have wanted.

0:54:12 > 0:54:14She is not here to be your guardian, sir.

0:54:14 > 0:54:17So now it is my obligation to repay that good lady.

0:54:18 > 0:54:22No more, do you hear me?

0:54:22 > 0:54:24This has to stop.

0:54:32 > 0:54:36It's not fair. It's not right. Denise was so good at her job.

0:54:36 > 0:54:39Girls leave here all the time, for their different reasons.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41I said I would help her, I said it would all be all right.

0:54:41 > 0:54:44How can you make it all right? What business is it of yours, Sam?

0:54:44 > 0:54:47- Because I want to be a friend to her.- We are all a friend to her.

0:54:47 > 0:54:49She is gone and that's that.

0:54:53 > 0:54:56I tried to persuade her to stay.

0:54:56 > 0:54:59I am sure you did your very best, Mr Dudley.

0:55:01 > 0:55:03We'll miss her.

0:55:06 > 0:55:07We will.

0:55:17 > 0:55:18Neckties?

0:55:20 > 0:55:22Yes, sir.

0:55:22 > 0:55:23What a good idea, Denise.

0:55:26 > 0:55:28Thank you.

0:55:28 > 0:55:31I don't know many men who wear neckties.

0:55:31 > 0:55:34In fact, I am the only man I am aware of who prefers them.

0:55:35 > 0:55:38I have seen...some men wearing them.

0:55:39 > 0:55:42Oh, well, I am sure it will catch on.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44- May I buy one?- Of course.

0:55:49 > 0:55:52You did not have to leave, Denise.

0:55:52 > 0:55:54I did not wish to remain.

0:55:56 > 0:55:58Will you come back to me?

0:55:59 > 0:56:01No, sir. Not now.

0:56:01 > 0:56:05Suppose I were to implore you?

0:56:05 > 0:56:06Why would you do that?

0:56:06 > 0:56:09Because you are my little champion.

0:56:09 > 0:56:11You let me make a fool of myself.

0:56:13 > 0:56:16You let me kiss you when you are engaged to be married.

0:56:16 > 0:56:18You let me say those things.

0:56:20 > 0:56:23I had my reasons. I had my reasons for Katherine.

0:56:24 > 0:56:27It all happened so...suddenly.

0:56:29 > 0:56:33I cannot find the way to undo this, Denise.

0:56:33 > 0:56:34When you kissed me...

0:56:34 > 0:56:37You are to marry Katherine Glendenning

0:56:37 > 0:56:39and that is all that matters.

0:56:39 > 0:56:41Yes.

0:56:41 > 0:56:45And I am sorry. That matters too.

0:56:49 > 0:56:51Edmund.

0:56:51 > 0:56:54I wish to offer my apologies, for the incident with Jonas.

0:56:54 > 0:56:58What sort of trick is this? You apologising to me?

0:56:58 > 0:57:01He had no call coming into your store at such an hour.

0:57:01 > 0:57:04He had no call forcing an argument with you. I'm sorry.

0:57:07 > 0:57:10Well, I am the one to be sorry.

0:57:10 > 0:57:12I am the man who raised his fist.

0:57:12 > 0:57:15I'm grateful there is no charge brought against me.

0:57:49 > 0:57:51If it is success here that you want, then I shall give it to you.

0:57:51 > 0:57:55Tollgate Street Traders. Competitively priced,

0:57:55 > 0:57:58- tradition and quality.- I think I could sell you anything.

0:57:58 > 0:58:01- Midnight Ink.- The perfect cloth, for my wedding dress.

0:58:01 > 0:58:04I have an idea. There is a fabric called Midnight Ink.

0:58:04 > 0:58:06She is selling my wedding dress.

0:58:06 > 0:58:09Stop this! You cannot have everything your way.
