0:00:43 > 0:00:47OLD BERT: Do you know how many weddings I've been to?
0:00:47 > 0:00:49You'll never guess.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51142!
0:00:51 > 0:00:54142 weddings,
0:00:54 > 0:00:59so that's 284 lives coming together. But those two weddings,
0:00:59 > 0:01:04a week apart in the spring of 1924, they were about much more
0:01:04 > 0:01:06than lives coming together.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09There you go. Very handsome.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Not handsome enough for anyone to marry you.
0:01:12 > 0:01:13Not long, though, eh, Bert?
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Can I go now?
0:01:16 > 0:01:17Oh.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21It's the bride that's supposed to be late, not the best man.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Only be a minute. There you go.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24See you at chapel.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31A chair, John.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44Thank you.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Edmund will be the fifth Member of Parliament
0:01:49 > 0:01:50to be married in this chapel.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57OLD BERT: If love is reckless and unstoppable at the same time,
0:01:57 > 0:01:59then perhaps we shouldn't be surprised
0:01:59 > 0:02:01when the world's turned upside down by it.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05But this, this blew all our socks off.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10- Oi! You're trespassing. - I'm best man. No ring, no wedding.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14Wedding's not till Saturday - and I bet YOU'RE not invited.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Don't come this way again!
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- I said ten o'clock.- It's 10.05. Wedding's not for another hour.
0:02:24 > 0:02:2655 minutes.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31Perfect.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40I want you to know, I'll never forget him.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45He'd have wanted you to be happy.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48And I will be.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56So, I'm not going to be your mother-in-law.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58I'm going to be your mother, instead.
0:03:02 > 0:03:03Beautiful.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- It's for the Big House wedding. - And for Gilbert and Agnes'?
0:03:20 > 0:03:23He's my son. He's getting married.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27If you can't support them, I'm asking you to be quiet.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Leave that. We'll be late, John.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36- You go.- What?
0:03:36 > 0:03:40I promised Hankin I'd make that milk quota, no matter what.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Weddings, funerals, christenings - they all come second now.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Monday, I saw three women and children cross the road
0:03:47 > 0:03:49to avoid Agnes and her pram.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51They held their children close in to them,
0:03:51 > 0:03:55so they didn't catch a sight of baby Sophie - the bastard.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59This is more than just another wedding.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06I'm not prepared to lose what we've made on this farm, Grace.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08- Not for nothing. - And what about our grandson?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- What are you going to you say to him?!- Don't talk about that.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Cross the road, in case you catch something from the bastard?!
0:04:14 > 0:04:18- You're too angry, Grace. - No, I'm not nearly angry enough!
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Come on, Mary, get your coat.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37CHURCH BELLS PEAL
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- Is Gilbert all right? - Only two hours early.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47I love this chapel. It's honest.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50I'm so glad we married here.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Did you get married here?
0:04:54 > 0:04:5921st of June. Hm, long time ago.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Did you get married here, Margaret?
0:05:01 > 0:05:05I did, sweetheart. May 6, 1899.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09- Last century?- I'm afraid it was!
0:05:09 > 0:05:12I was baptised here, married here
0:05:12 > 0:05:15and we'll be buried here, the lot of us. Dust to dust.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22If there be any person here who knows of any lawful impediment
0:05:22 > 0:05:26to this marriage, speak now or for ever hold your peace.

0:07:06 > 0:07:10APPLAUSE
0:07:12 > 0:07:13You MAY kiss the bride!

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Margaret, could I... Could I hold her?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Do you know how to hold her?- Aye!
0:08:10 > 0:08:14Hey, come to Grandad, again. Hey, that's it.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16You want to say hello to Grandma?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Look at them. They're happy. What else matters?
0:08:21 > 0:08:26Ladies and gentlemen, what's the point of a wedding?
0:08:26 > 0:08:29It's to make private feelings public.
0:08:29 > 0:08:34It's an announcement of love that takes no heed what the world thinks.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38I'm not very articulate with words.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41I do my best, but they never seem enough or feel enough, somehow.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45But I know how we can make it better - our public announcement.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47With dancing!

0:09:45 > 0:09:46Get it down you.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00We could...go for a walk.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17I've an article to finish for the morning.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Do you mind if I stay?
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Not at all... Enjoy yourself.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Why are we walking so fast?
0:10:48 > 0:10:49I'm sorry.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53Sorry.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09- Talking shop?- I'm afraid so.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17The children of this village are very lucky to have you two.
0:11:20 > 0:11:26- Um...I have some things that I have to do at school.- Now?
0:11:28 > 0:11:33When I think of something that has to be done, I know I'll forget.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35So, I have to do it now.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Such dedication.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08What's wrong?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- I got this today.- Who's it from?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14- Ghana Jones.- What does he say?
0:12:14 > 0:12:19Just, his life outside the village, it's another world.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22You can hear it in the way he writes.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25It's full of hope and excitement and...
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Are you leaving?
0:12:33 > 0:12:37- I didn't...- Yes...you did.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42You!
0:12:42 > 0:12:45What are you doing? Speak up, lad.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47What were you doing?
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Dirty business, was it? Filthy dirty?
0:12:54 > 0:13:00Talking. It's a conversation that matters. We're doing no harm.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Let your father be the judge of that.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05CLICKING
0:13:05 > 0:13:06Go on!
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- It couldn't wait?- No.- What is it?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27HE CLEARS THROAT
0:13:27 > 0:13:31"Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33"Out, out, brief candle."
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Stay there.
0:14:19 > 0:14:20Bert?
0:14:23 > 0:14:26- What's going on? - These two belong to you, do they?
0:14:26 > 0:14:27- He's my son.- Phoebe?
0:14:27 > 0:14:31I found these two intertwining on Allingham land.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35That's what he wanted it to be. Is that right?
0:14:35 > 0:14:38- Were you hoping for something dirty? - Shut up.- We were talking.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40Talking? Nobody goes there for talking.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44No crime in that.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46If it's on Allingham land, it is.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50It's called trespass, isn't it, Vicar?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53It's Minister, not Vicar.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Now you've said your piece, you can be on your way.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58You heard him.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09And don't come back an' all.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23HAMMERING
0:15:31 > 0:15:33So, the sign is at the old bridge?
0:15:35 > 0:15:37What were you and Phoebe REALLY doing?
0:15:37 > 0:15:39They were courting, Mary.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41What does that mean?
0:15:41 > 0:15:43The old bridge is...
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Well, somewhere couples go...
0:15:45 > 0:15:50Well, have always gone, to hold hands and...
0:15:50 > 0:15:52hold conversations.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Did you and father do intertwining?
0:15:54 > 0:15:55SHE LAUGHS
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- Yes, we did.- Urrgh!
0:15:57 > 0:15:58Go on!
0:16:10 > 0:16:11Hello?
0:16:25 > 0:16:26Mrs Hankin.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29THEY GIGGLE
0:16:29 > 0:16:32- It sounds silly. - It isn't silly, though.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44No, it isn't.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- Is it your first?- No.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57I love you.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20You shouldn't have had the party.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26- You wouldn't have had the wedding at all.- No. I wouldn't.
0:17:26 > 0:17:31So, what do you see when you look at them - Gilbert, Agnes and Sophie?
0:17:33 > 0:17:36A fool, a whore
0:17:36 > 0:17:37and a bastard.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44They're a family.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48So, that's a family?
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Then, what are we?!
0:18:06 > 0:18:07I'm back.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10THEY GIGGLE
0:18:16 > 0:18:18After you, Lady Allingham.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19How was Westminster?
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Good to be back on the right side of the House again, where we belong.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Hmm, I've had a tremendous idea.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28How about we make this moment, right now, the very last reference
0:18:28 > 0:18:30to politics until after the wedding?!
0:18:30 > 0:18:32- Drink?- Good idea.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Has it been ghastly?
0:18:39 > 0:18:41On the contrary, I've been having rather a time of it.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Well, you know what she wants, don't you?
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- She wants the past. - She wants a fiction.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50I love fiction and I love friction. Plenty of both here.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Anyway, what about you?
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Apart from the happy return of Conservative bottoms
0:18:54 > 0:18:59- to where they rightfully belong? - I found some time to enjoy myself.
0:19:01 > 0:19:02Robert well, then, is he?
0:19:10 > 0:19:11You and Phoebe?
0:19:13 > 0:19:14What?
0:19:14 > 0:19:15Well...
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Do you love her?
0:19:19 > 0:19:20Don't embarrass him, Mother.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Remember the old bridge, John?
0:19:27 > 0:19:30- Grace.- Don't embarrass him, Mother.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33It isn't just about Bert and Phoebe, is it?
0:19:33 > 0:19:36- Isn't it? - No. It's an attack on our history.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39It's telling anyone who has stood on that bridge and held hands
0:19:39 > 0:19:45with a future, that it's not theirs. Our history, chased off at gunpoint.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49They were on their land. That's the end of it.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04DOOR OPENS
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Eh, look who I found on the doorstep?
0:20:08 > 0:20:12We wanted to thank you for the party.
0:20:12 > 0:20:13Aye, best day of our lives.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17BABY CRIES
0:20:17 > 0:20:19I'll have to feed her.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Right, we'll, er, leave you women to it.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40CRYING CEASES
0:20:40 > 0:20:41When will you tell her?
0:20:43 > 0:20:45- What?- You know.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47What?
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Her history.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Arnold went to a lot of expense last night.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59And there's a lot of tidying up to do!
0:21:05 > 0:21:07How did the Shakespeare go?
0:21:10 > 0:21:11Honestly?
0:21:12 > 0:21:15The mistake us teachers make with children and Shakespeare
0:21:15 > 0:21:18is Midsummer Night's Dream, because we think that
0:21:18 > 0:21:20cos it's all full of magic they're all going to love it.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23But they don't. They want Macbeth,
0:21:23 > 0:21:27because it's bloody and it's short and there's more poetry
0:21:27 > 0:21:30in him and her than in all of Bottom and Puck.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32They loved it.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39What are we going to do?
0:21:40 > 0:21:41I don't know.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Thank you, Portis.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54So...who's coming?
0:21:54 > 0:21:58Oh... Erm, two Mauds.
0:21:58 > 0:21:59Right.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01One Edith and two Ernests.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05- And what are they...- Like?
0:22:05 > 0:22:07They are bold and fast.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12Actually, one of the Ernests is, eh...
0:22:12 > 0:22:14is eligible.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Do you remember what you said?
0:22:22 > 0:22:25- She's still a child, in a way. - Yes, why is that?
0:22:27 > 0:22:29She had some unhappiness.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34And now she needs some fun.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Here he is - our vicar on a mission.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08I've counted at least three more paths you intend to block off.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12I don't understand your problem. The way the Allinghams see it,
0:23:12 > 0:23:16you can cycle where you like. You're married in, aren't you?
0:23:16 > 0:23:17You're one of them.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22OTHER MEN LAUGH
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Would an Allingham do that?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- Wouldn't you miss this?- Yeah.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55But I don't want to look at it every day for the rest of my life.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58These are good.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04Thomas likes his without butter. And Louis won't touch egg.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09I look after them, Bert. I'm the only mother they've known.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17I used to think I couldn't leave, either.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21Not after Joe. Not with the farm how it was.
0:24:21 > 0:24:26But...my father's got Henry now and the farm...
0:24:29 > 0:24:30..it works.
0:24:33 > 0:24:34You can't stay here, can you?
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Then...neither can I.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01BABY CRIES
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Agnes?
0:25:12 > 0:25:13Hey.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19My granddaughter will be needing a feed. Go on.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31This one was only trying to clean up after her own wedding.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Was she now?
0:25:34 > 0:25:38You've done so much for us. I just... I just wanted to do my bit.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Your bit in life will be making my son happy,
0:25:42 > 0:25:44not skivvying at a dance hall.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49You're no Cinderella.
0:25:49 > 0:25:50You're not wrong there, Arnold.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Well, he's lucky he's got friends in high places.
0:25:59 > 0:26:00Right, here he is.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Rest assured, Andrew will be dealt with.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12He can be over-zealous at times, but he works hard.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17We don't have to tell Martha. Nobody need know.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Is that what you think I want?
0:26:21 > 0:26:22We all make mistakes.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25It wasn't a mistake.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29LIVELY VOCAL SWING MUSIC
0:26:36 > 0:26:38What is that?
0:26:38 > 0:26:42Coon Sanders Original Nighthawk Orchestra, Lady Allingham.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47You'll be familiar with it by the end of the weekend,
0:26:47 > 0:26:51- if Harriet's crowd have any say. - Well, whatever the music...
0:26:52 > 0:26:55- ..it's a good match. - No question of it.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Yes, come the next reshuffle, I'm sure Kilmartin will see to it
0:26:59 > 0:27:02that his new son-in-law is in the right place.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13Men can push against a mother's guidance now and again.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18But he sees that you're right and when he's the new Home Secretary,
0:27:18 > 0:27:20he'll see that even more clearly.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Your assistance in, er, helping him to see it,
0:27:26 > 0:27:28hasn't gone unnoticed.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31One big happy family.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36He is happy, isn't he?
0:27:39 > 0:27:40Oh, yes.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Ghana Jones. Where's he now?
0:27:46 > 0:27:50Liverpool. They won't let him fight championship bouts,
0:27:50 > 0:27:53- so he's doing something about it. - What do you mean? What can he do?
0:27:53 > 0:27:56America. He's going to America.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01When we're grey and old, this'll be us -
0:28:01 > 0:28:04drinks in The Lamb and a good woman at home.
0:28:06 > 0:28:10Speaking of which, any deeper "conversations" with Miss Rundle?
0:28:10 > 0:28:11- No!- Right.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17You're in good company. You and him.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Arrested, apparently.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28I wonder who he was intertwining with?
0:28:28 > 0:28:31TRIO STIFLE LAUGHTER
0:28:32 > 0:28:35HE CLEARS THROAT TELLINGLY
0:28:35 > 0:28:37HE CLEARS THROAT TELLINGLY AGAIN
0:28:37 > 0:28:39- What?- A changed man, right enough.
0:28:39 > 0:28:43Ah, you two are lovely and all that, just not as lovely
0:28:43 > 0:28:45as my wife and daughter.
0:28:49 > 0:28:50He's found it, hasn't he?
0:28:50 > 0:28:52It's all he ever wanted.
0:28:59 > 0:29:00And you?
0:29:01 > 0:29:03Hmm? Oh, I'm fine.
0:29:05 > 0:29:06Wedded to teaching.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11I wish I was Ghana Jones.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Then go, Bert.
0:29:17 > 0:29:23Stop talking about it and act. Leave the village
0:29:23 > 0:29:26and go after whatever it is that you want.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28Cos if you don't then...
0:29:33 > 0:29:34Out.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47He's a good man - Mr Eyre.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Yes, he is.
0:29:52 > 0:29:53He knows his own mind.
0:29:55 > 0:29:56Yes.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02The kind of man you could take advice from.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Why are you telling me this?
0:30:06 > 0:30:08And what are you not telling me?
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Is everything all right...
0:30:13 > 0:30:15between you and father?
0:30:16 > 0:30:20Everything's fine. Is that what you've been worrying about?
0:30:20 > 0:30:22The farm is good?
0:30:24 > 0:30:26The farm is good.
0:30:36 > 0:30:37I'm proud of you all.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42And I know that I'll be proud of you all tomorrow.
0:30:45 > 0:30:46The sunshine is coming back.
0:30:49 > 0:30:54The life that was lived here when I was a child is here again.
0:31:22 > 0:31:23You didn't ask.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25What?
0:31:26 > 0:31:31I looked at you and I looked at you and I waited.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35The moment was there, Bert, and you, you didn't take it.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41I can't come with you anyway.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44And it's not just cos of the boys.
0:31:44 > 0:31:48I don't want to leave. You can't be here.
0:31:48 > 0:31:53I can hear it and see it in everything you do and say.
0:31:53 > 0:31:54And I can't be anywhere else.
0:32:00 > 0:32:01But I love you.
0:32:05 > 0:32:06And you love me.
0:32:13 > 0:32:14It's not enough.
0:32:26 > 0:32:31Well, what a delight to have you back in our midst, Lord Kilmartin.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33The pleasure is all mine, Lady Allingham. And if I may?
0:32:33 > 0:32:35- Oh!- Mm.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Is your wife joining us?
0:32:38 > 0:32:40Teaching, I'm afraid.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Martha has a job, Daddy. Impressive, isn't it?
0:32:43 > 0:32:44The modern women.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48Well, a toast. To Eddie and Harry, a modern pair.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51SOME OTHERS: A modern pair.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56And to the union of our two families.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58ALL: Hear, hear!

0:34:09 > 0:34:12I've not told my parents. Not yet.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Well you'll have to.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19- Where are you...? - Liverpool.

0:34:30 > 0:34:32- Oh, no, no.- Take it.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34For me.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50- Have you told Phoebe? - She told me, really.
0:34:52 > 0:34:53Are you all right?
0:34:56 > 0:34:57I wanted to thank you.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Why?
0:35:00 > 0:35:02You've given me the push I needed.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05The right advice from a good man.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07What was it that American President said?
0:35:07 > 0:35:09Which one?
0:35:09 > 0:35:11You told us about it. Ideas shared...
0:35:13 > 0:35:19"He who receives an idea from me receives it without lessening me,
0:35:19 > 0:35:25"as he who lights his candle at mine receives light without darkening me."
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Thomas Jefferson.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42GUNSHOTS
0:35:44 > 0:35:47HE WHIMPERS
0:35:50 > 0:35:51Pull!
0:35:56 > 0:35:59- She's a crack shot. - Did you teach her to shoot?
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Oh, yes.
0:36:01 > 0:36:02Watch this.
0:36:02 > 0:36:03Pull!
0:36:08 > 0:36:10LAUGHTER
0:36:11 > 0:36:14You bastards! All of you!
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Good shot!
0:36:19 > 0:36:21I'm sorry!
0:36:22 > 0:36:24I'll get you a new one, of course.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26HE LAUGHS
0:36:26 > 0:36:30Well done, girl! Don't wait for the old man!
0:36:35 > 0:36:37Margaret, you got your finery laid out for tomorrow?
0:36:37 > 0:36:42Oh! Lady Allingham is terribly disappointed that I cannot attend(!)
0:36:42 > 0:36:46But I'll tell you what I told her - "Lady Allingham," I said,
0:36:46 > 0:36:48"it's wash day.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51"Even if it were the wedding of the Prince of Wales his-self,
0:36:51 > 0:36:54"my Henry's dirty smalls wait for no man."
0:36:54 > 0:36:55LAUGHTER
0:36:55 > 0:36:58I expect you'll be going though, eh?
0:37:01 > 0:37:03Er, Peter, I'll get this.
0:37:03 > 0:37:07A man jailed for his principles deserves a drink.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Man needs his lemonade.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14The old bridge is just the start.
0:37:17 > 0:37:18Look.
0:37:18 > 0:37:19Bloody hell.
0:37:19 > 0:37:23- Excuse me, I'm going to have a word. - I won't stop going. They can keep arresting me.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27BARTENDER: Aye, and they'll keep letting you out and all. The revolving Reverend!
0:37:27 > 0:37:28LAUGHTER
0:37:28 > 0:37:31Let's see.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35The Edge, Snake Pass, the top path to the Chinley Road,
0:37:35 > 0:37:37all to be fenced and gated.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39I drive my sheep over Snake Pass.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41Not this winter.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43Will you be walking that way again?
0:37:43 > 0:37:44Tomorrow.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48- Well, would you like someone to walk alongside you?- Aye.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50Me an' all.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52They can't arrest us all, can they?
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Here, I thought you said tomorrow were wash day.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57Well, it is. But this is important, isn't it?
0:37:58 > 0:38:00I'd say it was.
0:38:03 > 0:38:05Grace. Grace.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Why are you running away?
0:38:08 > 0:38:1111 months! And not a word.
0:38:11 > 0:38:16I was in Westminster, Grace. We were trying to stay in power with a minority government.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18You made this village matter.
0:38:18 > 0:38:23You said you felt at home here, that we were your people.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25I was representing you - down there.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27It's what I was doing day and night.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30- Well, you never came back. Not once. - I'm here now.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31Yeah, now it's over!
0:38:31 > 0:38:34Now you're not in power anymore. Now you've got time to...
0:38:34 > 0:38:36I came to see you.
0:38:40 > 0:38:41What?
0:38:41 > 0:38:46I came to see you, Grace. Answer me this. One question.
0:38:46 > 0:38:47That's all.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Are you pleased to see me?
0:38:53 > 0:38:55I've got to get home.
0:39:05 > 0:39:06MUFFLED CHAT
0:39:10 > 0:39:12DOORBELL
0:39:15 > 0:39:20They let Robin out. The trespassing Minister is free to trespass again.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23It's a clever move.
0:39:23 > 0:39:27The Left love a martyr and a man of God jailed for walking this
0:39:27 > 0:39:31green and pleasant land is as good as martyrs get.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33Are you drunk, Arnold?
0:39:36 > 0:39:37Yes.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41You should have more sense.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45Men of God, they know what they want and they stick to it.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49He's trespassing again tomorrow. The Allinghams have got a fight on with God.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52HE LAUGHS
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Why's it so funny? I thought you voted Conservative.
0:39:55 > 0:39:59Oh, come on, Norma. Enough deference to the Big House.
0:39:59 > 0:40:01Don't use big words with me, Arnold Hankin.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04We're to be guests at their wedding.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07And you think to sit there accepting their hospitality while all
0:40:07 > 0:40:10the time you're supporting those that would trespass on their land?
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Oh, you sound like the Lord's Prayer.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Like I said - enough deference.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18What's the answer to my question?
0:40:21 > 0:40:24And you're right. So I won't go...
0:40:24 > 0:40:26to the wedding.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09CHATTER AND LAUGHTER
0:41:20 > 0:41:23- Are they keeping you awake?- Oh!
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Are you not joining in?

0:41:45 > 0:41:47CAR HORN
0:41:47 > 0:41:50LAUGHTER AND SHOUTING
0:41:55 > 0:41:57- Robert!- Yes!

0:42:13 > 0:42:14Dear chap!
0:42:14 > 0:42:16How are you?
0:42:16 > 0:42:18Of course. Come in, come in, come in.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46We're off.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51- Where are you going? - To show Allinghams that their fences won't keep us off the land.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54- I want to show you something. - Well, won't it wait?
0:43:28 > 0:43:29You've seen sense?
0:43:32 > 0:43:33It's very lovely.
0:43:35 > 0:43:36You look beautiful.
0:43:40 > 0:43:42What is it, Norma? Why are you so angry?
0:43:42 > 0:43:44Don't you listen?
0:43:44 > 0:43:47Yes, but what you're feeling goes beyond what you're saying.
0:43:49 > 0:43:53I'm your husband. You can talk to me.
0:43:59 > 0:44:01Not that tie. Wear the blue one.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01Oh, lost your way, Robert?
0:45:01 > 0:45:04Just wanted to wish the groom good luck.
0:45:04 > 0:45:06Oh! Of course.
0:45:14 > 0:45:16- Darling...- Oh! Mother!
0:45:27 > 0:45:29Do you enjoy embarrassing me, Edmund?
0:45:33 > 0:45:35I'm not sure what you mean.
0:45:36 > 0:45:39I've only ever wanted to secure your future.
0:45:42 > 0:45:43The future of this family.
0:45:45 > 0:45:48You have. I'm marrying Harriet.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53You do still want it, don't you?
0:45:53 > 0:45:55Yes, but you have to do it properly!
0:45:56 > 0:46:02You, you and Harriet... You...
0:46:02 > 0:46:04You have to BE married.
0:46:06 > 0:46:07You mean you want grandchildren.
0:46:09 > 0:46:11- Well... - And homo sex won't give you one.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14I don't believe you have to be an invert!
0:46:17 > 0:46:22I... I think that...you can conquer it.
0:46:25 > 0:46:30Harry's a cure(!) A good dose of wife, will sort out the queer in me(?)
0:46:30 > 0:46:38This house, this family, this line.
0:46:39 > 0:46:43You'll only know what it means when it's left to you to protect it.
0:46:44 > 0:46:48And you'll only understand me... when I'm gone.
0:47:04 > 0:47:06It's a good turnout.
0:47:07 > 0:47:09Looks like there's more coming.
0:47:11 > 0:47:13It's Bill Gibby.

0:47:36 > 0:47:37Never had the need.
0:47:40 > 0:47:43I'm not a queer. In case you were asking.
0:47:48 > 0:47:54I married here myself, you know. An unseasonably cold day in June.
0:47:59 > 0:48:04Even at 19, I knew it wasn't for love.
0:48:08 > 0:48:11The future Home Secretary is about to get a wife.
0:48:13 > 0:48:15And the sun is shining.
0:48:28 > 0:48:29What's in the bag?

0:48:32 > 0:48:34Why?
0:48:35 > 0:48:37I'm going to carry on walking, Mother.
0:48:39 > 0:48:46- What? - I'm with you for this and then... I'm the other way down Chinley Road.
0:48:48 > 0:48:50Why?

0:50:12 > 0:50:13ALL: Yes!
0:50:13 > 0:50:17Bill, I don't usually go that way. Besides, it overlooks Allingham Hall.
0:50:17 > 0:50:22What's the point of a protest if no-one sees it! Let's go!
0:50:22 > 0:50:26- Mother...- Let's not speak about it.
