0:01:01 > 0:01:03'But it does.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07'Sometimes it comes so fast and so hard that the shape of the world,
0:01:07 > 0:01:09'the shape of the people, are never the same afterwards.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15'1923 was like that. Not just with us. Not just in the village
0:01:15 > 0:01:16'but everywhere.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18'My mother recognised it straightaway.'
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Go!
0:01:20 > 0:01:22'Or maybe it was something she'd always known.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Aye, well, he'll have to.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41It's going to take a long time to slaughter a herd that size.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43The whole herd?
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Well, if one of them's got it, they'll all have it.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48Will our cows get it?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51No.

0:02:19 > 0:02:20More porridge, Mum.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22So, you knew all along.
0:02:22 > 0:02:23What's that?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- Well, losing the cow shed was a good idea.- Farmer's instincts.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30'My heart was trying to make a decision.'
0:02:32 > 0:02:33Morning, Bert.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38'Its first real decision.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41'But it wasn't a matter of politics.'
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Good girl.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52- Phoebe!- Bert!- Come back!
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- You'll be late for school. - I can take them, if you like.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59No... You'll miss it.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Wait for me.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16Phoebe!
0:03:26 > 0:03:27I'm popping up to see Agnes.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- With more food from our table? - Bread and eggs won't break us.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Not so long ago, it would have done.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Well, let's be thankful we're not there any longer.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42I'm going to see Hankin later.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46See about taking over Rutter's order.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49- Can we manage that much?- We could.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55All these years, we've fought to keep going
0:03:55 > 0:03:57and now we've got a chance to get on,
0:03:57 > 0:03:59we have to take it, Grace.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03You shouldn't meddle.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06We wouldn't welcome it here.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09She needs help, John. Come on, Mary, love!

0:04:43 > 0:04:45You can't pass through here. It's not safe.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48- I've cycled this path for years. - Not any more.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- On whose say so? - Them what own it - the Allinghams.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55- Oh...- Turn around.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03Fine.

0:05:46 > 0:05:47Agnes? Are you all right?
0:05:49 > 0:05:52It's not fair. Gilbert Hankin had no right to sack you.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54It's not his fault.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Is it your fault you couldn't breathe properly?- Allingham...
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Allingham?
0:06:00 > 0:06:04He thinks I complained about being sick. That's the end of it.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Allingham should be stood up to.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13It'll make no difference... And who'd stand with me?
0:06:21 > 0:06:22I will.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Are these your initials, Middleton?
0:06:37 > 0:06:38Hand.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48He were a right bastard, that Ingham.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51The children are lucky to have Mrs Allingham.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55She wrote me a letter.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Well, I thought she did. Turned out it wasn't her.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Martha... She's impossible. She's a married woman.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05What did you expect was going to happen, Bert?
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Who did write it, then?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Phoebe Rundle.- Ah, well!
0:07:12 > 0:07:16There you go. I've been telling you, haven't I?
0:07:16 > 0:07:20Phoebe Rundle is, in the opinion of this teacher,
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- the girl for you.- But...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26..if...
0:07:26 > 0:07:29what you feel can change so quickly, how will I know
0:07:29 > 0:07:33- when it's real?- Test it out.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36Spend some time with her and then check your heart rate.
0:07:36 > 0:07:42- Don't laugh at me. - No, no. I would never do that.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50Go on, just get away with you and...test it out.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08Make sure that your vote counts next week in the national elections.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30- Hello.- I wasn't sure you'd be here.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34Just for the morning. Then, Glossop and Chinley. Sheffield tonight.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- And you must be...Mary?- Who are you?
0:08:38 > 0:08:42I'm Bill Gibby. Delighted to make your acquaintance.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43Go on.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46Where do you stand on tariff reform?
0:08:46 > 0:08:47Um...
0:08:49 > 0:08:52I'm against it. Labour is against it.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54So is Mrs Allingham.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55Good for Mrs Allingham.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Father says it doesn't matter who wins.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- Oh, I think it does.- So does Mother.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Go on, you... Off to school.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06I know you're, you're very busy,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09but I wanted to talk to you about the girl who lost her job
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- at the boot factory. - Agnes Scrivener.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14See, I don't know what else to do. Gilbert Hankin, the manager,
0:09:14 > 0:09:17now he was just following orders from Allingham and, well,
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- I can't speak to Allingham, because...- Then, don't.- What?
0:09:21 > 0:09:24You're forgetting about the people who matter.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Just speak as you find.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37You find right, Grace.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02No need to stop. Where can we find Gilbert Hankin?
0:10:02 > 0:10:04FOOTSTEPS
0:10:16 > 0:10:19We're here to ask you to reinstate Agnes Scrivener.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24- She's been replaced. The decision's been taken.- By you?
0:10:28 > 0:10:32Agnes worked here for seven years.
0:10:34 > 0:10:39Did she ever not finish her work? Ever...complain?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44There's nothing I can do.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49Right.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Thank you for your time.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Your fellow worker was sacked from her job here
0:11:06 > 0:11:07through no fault of her own.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Right now, you are all vulnerable to the same injustice.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17He can't make the boots without your labour. YOUR labour...
0:11:18 > 0:11:20..to offer...
0:11:22 > 0:11:23..or to withhold.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28As long as Allingham runs this factory
0:11:28 > 0:11:32and speaks for you in Parliament, he can do with you as he wishes.
0:11:33 > 0:11:38But you can hold him accountable. WE can hold him accountable...
0:11:39 > 0:11:41..if you vote Labour this week.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49They listened.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52But they won't come out for Agnes.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56They're afraid. But there'll be no Hankin or Allingham between them
0:11:56 > 0:12:00and the ballot box. Allingham underestimates us. And them.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Sheffield train, Bill.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07We show them a better option and they'll take it.
0:12:07 > 0:12:12- Lead by example, Grace.- But I'm... - A farmer's wife? And I'm a miner.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17And I think we can change the world.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42- They're a bit young.- So am I.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Sorry?
0:12:44 > 0:12:462nd of June, 1924.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48I'll be 30.
0:12:48 > 0:12:53Until then - no vote. So, don't worry, my opinion isn't important
0:12:53 > 0:12:54and won't be taken seriously by anybody.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59I trust you'll be using your vote to do good?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Good being a vote against your brother-in-law?
0:13:03 > 0:13:07I may not have a vote, but I do have my own mind and my own conscience.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12And always so sure of them both.

0:13:33 > 0:13:34Phoebe.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39- Can I ask you something?- Of course.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- Bert Middleton.- Yes?
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Do you trust him?- Yes.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- Then I should? - No. No. Keep him working.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Cos the more he can't have you, the more he'll want you.
0:13:52 > 0:13:53LIGHTER CLICKS
0:14:07 > 0:14:08There.
0:14:10 > 0:14:11Thank you very much.
0:14:15 > 0:14:19Eh... Oh, the finest gramophone money can buy.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25Hey, Margaret, not seen you at the dance hall yet.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26You want to come, give it a try.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29What, before or after I serve meself?
0:14:31 > 0:14:33If we've money for music, we've money for help.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Shop!
0:14:38 > 0:14:39Hankin.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42A word.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46All I'm saying is, you might want to think twice
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- in future before getting... - Night, John.- Good night.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52..before you get milk from Rutter. He's had to slaughter his herd.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54TB's been set in for months.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58This is the first time in your life you've been in this shop.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59- What are you after?- You see...
0:15:02 > 0:15:06..mine's clean. Open pasture, no risk, no disease.
0:15:06 > 0:15:11See? Clean. Milk, straight from Middleton Farm to Hankin's shop.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Me and you, nowt in between.
0:15:13 > 0:15:18- Hmm. It's a... It's a risk you're taking.- Can't I trust you?
0:15:18 > 0:15:21- You know what I'm saying. - You're a risk taker, aren't you?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24I mean, that dance hall, that were a shot in the dark, weren't it?
0:15:29 > 0:15:33Hmm. There's a businessman in you, after all, John Middleton.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Where you been?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Hankin takes Middleton milk now.
0:15:48 > 0:15:54- Mother!- She's gone to see Edmund Allingham speak.
0:15:54 > 0:15:55What about dairy?
0:15:55 > 0:16:00Finished. No more mad dashes to the station. Those days are gone, Bert.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Change of plan.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14CHATTER
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Welcome to you all.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Er, I won't be making a speech. Why?
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Because I want to hear from you, about your concerns
0:16:30 > 0:16:35and what you want. Let's make this a conversation.
0:16:35 > 0:16:36So, questions from the floor.
0:16:38 > 0:16:39Who's first?
0:16:43 > 0:16:44Mrs Middleton.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Yes.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Can the workers in your factory rely on you, Mr Allingham?
0:16:53 > 0:16:57Could you repeat the question a little louder, so everyone hears it?
0:16:59 > 0:17:04I was wondering whether the workers in your factory can rely on you.
0:17:05 > 0:17:10The factory has provided employment for half the village since 1904.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13We provided thousands of pairs of boots
0:17:13 > 0:17:17for our brave men at the Front and it provided employment for you,
0:17:17 > 0:17:20when hard times on your farm meant that you needed the work.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24Now that, through his hard work and determination, things are looking
0:17:24 > 0:17:28so much better for your husband, well, you don't need the work.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Agnes Scrivener does.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37The girl...is an agitator.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43Are you an agitator, Mrs Middleton?
0:17:43 > 0:17:47- I don't understand what you mean, when...- How much time have you been
0:17:47 > 0:17:51spending with Bill Gibby, Mrs Middleton? I think you went
0:17:51 > 0:17:54to the factory this morning to agitate with Gibby
0:17:54 > 0:17:57and have come here primed to agitate some more.
0:17:57 > 0:18:02Is Gibby with you now? Is he behind you, telling you what to say?
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Where is your puppet master, Mrs Middleton?
0:18:05 > 0:18:07LAUGHTER
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Er, shall we take another question?
0:18:24 > 0:18:28- What did he say? - How much he admires you, mostly.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34- Why?- What you've done turning the farm around.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36Good.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39Is it?
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Isn't it?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48We've done well here, Grace.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Why does it seem like you don't want it?
0:18:51 > 0:18:54We need to look outside of ourselves.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59I deliver good, fresh, clean milk to the whole village, at a fair price,
0:18:59 > 0:19:01and I can do that because I've worked hard.
0:19:05 > 0:19:06Read 'em to me.
0:19:07 > 0:19:14"Clover, Myrtle, Bracken, Buttercup, Henrietta and Hilda."
0:19:17 > 0:19:22- Father said we can name our cows. - What's the name of our grandson?
0:19:24 > 0:19:27What's the name of the little baby boy the Allinghams sent away
0:19:27 > 0:19:29without even asking us?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33They don't care about anybody else other than themselves.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36Is that the kind of world you want?
0:19:39 > 0:19:43Agnes Scrivner, she's a problem. My factory, my village,
0:19:43 > 0:19:46my constituency. It looks bad.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48The left love a victim.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51They crave victimhood
0:19:51 > 0:19:54and, when they get it, they milk it for all it's worth.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Thank you, Mother.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00- So, what do you think?- Well... - Take it away from them.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- Sorry? - Their poor little match-girl martyr.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12- What do you mean, take it away? - Give her her job back. Pay her more.
0:20:12 > 0:20:17Mmm. Then, Gibby and Labour will have nothing to bleat about.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Have I suddenly acquired a second political advisor?
0:20:23 > 0:20:26I haven't got a political bone in my body, darling.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35Oh, by the by, and entirely away from politics,
0:20:35 > 0:20:38the tremendously glamorous, fabulously well connected
0:20:38 > 0:20:40and hitherto unmarried
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Harriet Kilmartin is coming to stay.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52INDISTINCT CHATTER
0:21:00 > 0:21:04So, how is it going on the railways?
0:21:06 > 0:21:07Oh, no luck yet?
0:21:07 > 0:21:11No. And after next week, no more station visits.
0:21:11 > 0:21:16- Why not? - Our dads have got into bed together.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20Last milk run to the station, Wednesday.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23So, you better make it count.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26This man here is giving me lessons in romance.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Phoebe's the one for me, he says.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36- Pints?- Mm-hm.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42And the first lesson?
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Don't go where your teacher would like to tread.
0:21:52 > 0:21:53She's a married woman.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17You're to give Agnes her job back.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22- You told me to get rid of her.- Now I'm telling you to bring her back.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I know why you're doing this. You're using her.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- Does it matter? - It were making her ill.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32She won't want to come back.
0:22:34 > 0:22:35She will.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53FOOTSTEPS
0:23:06 > 0:23:10Has this been washed? The collar's all filthy.
0:23:10 > 0:23:11Oh, let me see.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16They're all like it. I can't go to the dance hall looking like that.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Well, between the shop and the home
0:23:19 > 0:23:23and the dance hall, I'm afraid things are starting to slip.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26I just don't have the time.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28HE SIGHS
0:23:28 > 0:23:32If you want to take on a maid, you can.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37It's just a case of finding someone suitable.
0:23:37 > 0:23:38Mmm.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Norma...
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Gilbert explained what happened at the factory.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13It's not my place to take sides.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15So, I won't.
0:24:16 > 0:24:21But it might end up being an excellent opportunity for you.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26We're looking for a maid.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34I'm offering you the position.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45I'm grateful...
0:24:46 > 0:24:48..to you and Arnold.
0:24:49 > 0:24:50Good.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56Mr Hankin and I would like you to start tomorrow.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Looks like rain.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17Cows were lying down as I came past.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19You believe that old wives' tale?
0:25:19 > 0:25:23- I could give you a lift, anyway. - No. Thank you.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36CAR BACKFIRES
0:25:45 > 0:25:46No driver?
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Why let someone else have all the fun?
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Thank you so much for this invitation, Lady Allingham.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Oh, Clem, please, I insist, Harriet.
0:25:58 > 0:26:03- Harri.- It's such a pity that Lord Kilmartin couldn't come with you.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06All is the election for my father, at the moment, I'm afraid.
0:26:06 > 0:26:11Ah, yes, well... I, er... I must confess that I'm rather hoping
0:26:11 > 0:26:15you'll be an antidote to a similar situation here.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17I'll try my very best.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Actually, can I call you Lady Allingham?
0:26:21 > 0:26:23I do so like Ladies.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Do you know what Edmund stands for?
0:26:38 > 0:26:40He's my brother.
0:26:40 > 0:26:41It's politics, not family.
0:26:44 > 0:26:49One and the same to some. Like my mother.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Is it so awful to be a part of us?
0:27:37 > 0:27:42Oh, I trust young Hankin passed on the good news?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47I got your job back at the factory.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50The Hankins have taken me on as a maid.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56- You'll go back to the factory. - This suits me better.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02- Ow! You're hurting me! - You'll go back to the factory.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Stop. Just stop! There's a baby!
0:28:13 > 0:28:16How long do you think you can hide it from Hankin, eh?
0:28:16 > 0:28:18They'll know it's yours.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Go back to the factory and I'll sort out the rest.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Don't - and you're on your own.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32It's not me who'll be judged.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35I judge you.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06- What's happening?- Helping Alf Rutter.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09Same thing happened with the outbreak on Edale farm.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12Getting it over quickly will help him with it.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Poor beggar.
0:29:16 > 0:29:17Have you seen him?
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Head stuck in a pint pot in The Lamb.
0:29:25 > 0:29:26This can wait.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31- Father won't like it. - Father's not here.
0:29:40 > 0:29:46Sir Piers Rayment. Wounded at the Battle of Marston Moor in 1644.
0:29:46 > 0:29:52His mastiff stood by him for over a day, waiting for him to be rescued.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Marston Moor was over in two hours.
0:29:54 > 0:29:58- What kept them?- How do you know it was?- We were there.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00The Kilmartin Cavaliers, with Prince Rupert.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04- Oh!- And two centuries before that, Agincourt.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Oh, we were at Agincourt.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09And just before that, to our eternal shame...
0:30:09 > 0:30:11- Bannockburn. - Our family's always been loyal...
0:30:13 > 0:30:15..and commanded loyalty.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19Even from Mastiffs.
0:30:19 > 0:30:24I love dogs. I really love big dogs.

0:30:39 > 0:30:43My husband's name is, erm, was Allingham,
0:30:43 > 0:30:48and it's a line prone to...sensitivity.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51- Caro and George are Allinghams. - And Edmund?
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Well, I'd like to hear your assessment.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00A worthy descendant of Sir Piers.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03SHE LAUGHS
0:31:03 > 0:31:04Fancy us both being at Agincourt!
0:31:04 > 0:31:06SHE LAUGHS
0:31:31 > 0:31:34FLIES BUZZ
0:31:38 > 0:31:40Why do they burn them?
0:31:41 > 0:31:45Fire purifies. It kills the bad left behind.
0:31:45 > 0:31:50Father says the Holy Ghost is like a fire that cleans men's souls.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55Men can be good.
0:31:55 > 0:31:56Not all souls need burning.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58I didn't believe him.
0:32:18 > 0:32:19Very handsome.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27- I know what you're doing, Mother. - I know you know.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32Harri Kilmartin is made for you and you are made for her.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35# We were made for each other. #
0:32:35 > 0:32:36Is this a song we're in?
0:32:39 > 0:32:42Even Bairstow thinks you should be married.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45Oh, does he? And if I don't want to be?
0:32:45 > 0:32:48Then you must be strong with yourself
0:32:48 > 0:32:51and think about what's best rather than what you want.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58She runs with all the best people, my darling boy.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02It's not as if you wouldn't have fun.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06Hello, Eddie.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Hello, Harri.
0:33:38 > 0:33:39I'm angry, Bert.
0:33:43 > 0:33:44Lately, this anger,
0:33:44 > 0:33:47it rises up so strong, so fast, I...
0:33:50 > 0:33:53I wonder how I've hid from myself all this time.
0:33:53 > 0:33:54Tell me.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57Joe.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00And his son.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03You couldn't have done anything different.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07- You didn't know. - That's... No choice.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10They decided and I was left with no part of it.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15They assumed they were entitled to do what they did
0:34:15 > 0:34:17and no part of him and...
0:34:19 > 0:34:20..no part of Joe.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Alongside anger, there's fear,
0:34:25 > 0:34:28because I want to do something about it all, like argue,
0:34:28 > 0:34:30fight, vote, but I...
0:34:31 > 0:34:33I'm scared it will hurt all of us.
0:34:35 > 0:34:36You mean Father.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39I don't know I can do this to him.
0:34:39 > 0:34:40You have to.
0:34:43 > 0:34:44You must.

0:35:34 > 0:35:35Why?
0:35:37 > 0:35:40"Forgive those who trespass against us."
0:35:42 > 0:35:43Is that all?
0:35:44 > 0:35:46I don't understand.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48The way he treated us!
0:35:49 > 0:35:50The way his father was!
0:35:50 > 0:35:52He'd have trampled us into mud if he had chance.
0:35:52 > 0:35:56And he very nearly did. Where does it stop, Grace?

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Seven year ago,
0:36:12 > 0:36:17our daughter, she wanted to name the first cow that we bought
0:36:17 > 0:36:19and I laughed at her, I laughed in her face,
0:36:19 > 0:36:23because of that man, cos... cos he'd made me hard.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26And now we have 30 head of cattle and she's named all of them.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30And I'm proud that I've changed enough for that to matter.
0:36:31 > 0:36:32What are you saying?
0:36:36 > 0:36:38What about me?
0:36:39 > 0:36:41Where are you?
0:36:41 > 0:36:43Where have you gone?
0:37:05 > 0:37:08I'll swap you, a barrel of yours, for one of mine.

0:37:33 > 0:37:37- Parasol? For the sun? - I'll walk.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41This is the last time I'm doing this.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45What?
0:37:45 > 0:37:48We're not delivering milk to the station after today.
0:37:48 > 0:37:51Oh. I see.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53So, I won't see you.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17I'm sorry about my mother.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Why? She's fabulous.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23She's, er, a keen interferer.
0:38:23 > 0:38:28Of course. She's organising her son's future happiness.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32A happiness that apparently can only be realised through a good marriage.
0:38:35 > 0:38:36She's right.
0:38:41 > 0:38:42What do you mean?
0:39:08 > 0:39:10I am sorry.
0:39:11 > 0:39:12About the factory.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15This is better.

0:40:13 > 0:40:18I have been invited to tea by Lady Allingham.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47Why are you following me?
0:40:48 > 0:40:52So I'm there when you finally decide to talk to me.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55And what would you like to talk about, Bert?
0:40:57 > 0:40:58Flowers.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04I want to take their pictures and you know all the names.
0:41:04 > 0:41:08You have to address the flower by its name before taking the photograph?
0:41:08 > 0:41:10Well, it's only polite.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15You can drop me at the butchers.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31I went first thing this morning.
0:43:31 > 0:43:33Edmund, of course.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37CLEM: Best of luck, darling. Not that you need it.
0:43:39 > 0:43:44Oh, I hear you've taken on Agnes Scrivener. Very generous of you.
0:43:44 > 0:43:47Well, we've taken on one of the local girls as a maid.
0:43:47 > 0:43:50Whether she'll turn out to be suitable or not...
0:43:50 > 0:43:52There's so much one needs to teach them.
0:43:52 > 0:43:54Still, it's a great kindness...
0:43:55 > 0:43:56..given her condition.
0:43:58 > 0:44:00Well, excuse me, ladies.
0:44:00 > 0:44:02Can't keep Sheffield waiting.

0:46:57 > 0:46:58Go on, get out.
0:47:00 > 0:47:02OUT!
0:47:07 > 0:47:09Do not come back to my house.
0:47:31 > 0:47:33I voted.
0:47:35 > 0:47:37I wouldn't want to pass comment on that, Mr Eyre.

0:48:06 > 0:48:09And now you say nothing! You're a coward.
0:48:14 > 0:48:17And you are a hypocrite!
0:48:17 > 0:48:22You preach about socialism and then you go home to George Allingham.
0:48:22 > 0:48:24You know nothing of my marriage!
0:48:24 > 0:48:26I know that you've martyred yourself to it!
0:48:52 > 0:48:55- Are you all right, Margaret? - Yes, yes, yes...
0:48:57 > 0:48:58No.
0:48:58 > 0:49:01- Well, what is it? - It's our Agnes. She's gone.
0:49:03 > 0:49:04Gone?

0:49:39 > 0:49:40Agnes!
0:49:43 > 0:49:48When I asked you and when you said no, was that because of the baby?
0:49:50 > 0:49:52Was it just the baby?
0:49:54 > 0:49:56I'm sorry.
0:49:57 > 0:49:59I'm so sorry, Gilbert.

0:51:20 > 0:51:22The Conservatives had the most seats,
0:51:22 > 0:51:25but not enough to form a government on their own.
0:51:25 > 0:51:30So we waited, while down in Westminster they talked
0:51:30 > 0:51:32and negotiated.
0:51:32 > 0:51:36The whole country waited for 40 days and 40 nights...
0:51:38 > 0:51:40..which makes it sound biblical.
0:51:40 > 0:51:44In a way, in terms of how much it mattered, what turned on it, it was.
0:51:45 > 0:51:49And then, 40 days later, a clear decision.
0:51:50 > 0:51:53No coalition, one party in power.
0:51:54 > 0:51:57I like to think that our village,
0:51:57 > 0:51:59after the King,
0:51:59 > 0:52:01was the first to know.
0:52:22 > 0:52:24I wanted you to hear it first.
0:52:28 > 0:52:32'Eyes like lions after slumber
0:52:32 > 0:52:34'in unvanquishable number.
0:52:34 > 0:52:38'Shake your chains to earth like dew.'
0:52:39 > 0:52:43Which in sleep had fallen on you.
0:52:45 > 0:52:47Ye are many...
0:52:51 > 0:52:53..they are few.
0:52:53 > 0:52:56SHE LAUGHS
0:52:56 > 0:53:00Woo-hooo!
0:53:24 > 0:53:26- You came home? - Yes.
0:53:29 > 0:53:32- Is it bad? - Yes, it's bad.
0:53:35 > 0:53:37It's a little early for whisky.
0:53:37 > 0:53:38Only if one has slept.
0:53:44 > 0:53:46Well, what's done is done.
0:53:46 > 0:53:48Lady Macbeth and no hint of irony.
0:53:48 > 0:53:50You've come a long way since Jane Austen.
0:53:53 > 0:53:54We dropped our guard.
0:54:00 > 0:54:02People have no idea what they've done.
0:54:02 > 0:54:05Socialism is a cancer. It's stupid, wrong and dangerous
0:54:05 > 0:54:07and I fought it with a narrow, parochial campaign.
0:54:07 > 0:54:09Darling, your campaign...
0:54:09 > 0:54:12Was too small. These are such important times.
0:54:12 > 0:54:15I, I should have shouted it out.
0:54:15 > 0:54:17Do you know what is happening to people in Russia
0:54:17 > 0:54:21in the name of socialism? Do you have any idea what becomes
0:54:21 > 0:54:25of a society, when character and personality is crushed by duty
0:54:25 > 0:54:26to the state?
0:54:29 > 0:54:31Bigger next time.
0:54:33 > 0:54:35- Hmm? - I can hear it.
0:54:35 > 0:54:39- Hear what? - The fight that's still left in you.
0:54:41 > 0:54:43We will come back from this.
0:54:44 > 0:54:47YOU...will come back from this.
0:54:53 > 0:54:54INDISTINCT CHATTER
0:54:54 > 0:54:56Bill, say a few words.
0:55:05 > 0:55:08I've been your member of parliament for 40 days.
0:55:08 > 0:55:10CHEERING
0:55:10 > 0:55:12Now, today, I am here to tell you
0:55:12 > 0:55:14that I'm a member of your new government!
0:55:14 > 0:55:17CHEERING
0:55:17 > 0:55:22I wanted to make my first speech here because this village has
0:55:22 > 0:55:25come to mean so much to me during this campaign.
0:55:26 > 0:55:28I'm humbled and privileged to represent you
0:55:28 > 0:55:32and I make this promise to you now - we will not rest
0:55:32 > 0:55:36until working people like you have proper wages,
0:55:36 > 0:55:40safe working lives and a clear understanding
0:55:40 > 0:55:42that you are equal in every way
0:55:42 > 0:55:45to those who have always felt themselves superior to you.
0:55:47 > 0:55:53I am of you, for you and I am with you, every single step of the way.
0:55:53 > 0:55:56CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:56:06 > 0:56:08DOOR OPENS
0:56:08 > 0:56:10Abandoning me already?
0:56:11 > 0:56:13There's no point now, is there?
0:56:14 > 0:56:15What do you mean?
0:56:17 > 0:56:19Losing wasn't part of the deal.
0:56:19 > 0:56:22I wasn't aware that we'd finalised the terms.
0:56:26 > 0:56:29People are never simple, Edmund.
0:56:31 > 0:56:32We all have our secrets.
0:56:34 > 0:56:35Our complications.
0:56:38 > 0:56:41Marriage needn't be seen as restricting.
0:56:41 > 0:56:44Ours could offer us more freedom than we've ever had.
0:56:47 > 0:56:49Are you asking me to marry you?
0:56:51 > 0:56:54I'm asking you to ask me to marry you.
0:57:05 > 0:57:08- I'll drive. - Where are we going?
0:57:08 > 0:57:09Who knows?
0:57:10 > 0:57:12Exciting, isn't it?
0:57:50 > 0:57:51What the hell is wrong with you?
0:57:51 > 0:57:55- What's his name? - Sorry?
0:57:55 > 0:57:57Give me my grandson's name!
0:58:01 > 0:58:02The matter is closed.
0:58:03 > 0:58:05That's my final word.
0:58:05 > 0:58:08Yours is not the final word on anything any more.
