And what's your heart's desire, Mr Landry? | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
I'd rather like to dance with you. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
-Was that quite proper? -No such word in my vocabulary. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
I hold you in too much regard to see you throw your reputation away. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
What could you possibly gain from this? | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
He's the sort of man who wouldn't forbid me anything. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
I can never see you again. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
There are things that are dearer to you, I know. I understand. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
You're a good man, | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
good men are few and far between. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
Did you tell her that we'd kissed? | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
I have no intention of having a baby. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
The German Ambassador's been crowing. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
The Germans have ears everywhere. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
We can get ourselves visas | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
and passage on a boat and get as far away from this as possible. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
We couldn't do that. | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
Why not? | 0:00:59 | 0:01:00 | |
Of course, it should really be pink champagne. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
But as neither of us are drinkers... | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
I chose to work on the ambulances | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
as a matter of conscience. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
You're not the man I thought you were. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
-Pritchard, are you quite well? -No. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
BELL RINGS REPEATEDLY | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
What's that? | 0:02:18 | 0:02:19 | |
Orange juice. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:20 | |
We need to get you in practice. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
Oranges are ten a penny, where we're going. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
John! | 0:02:36 | 0:02:37 | |
Is something amiss, your ladyship? | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
Straight downstairs, both of you, as quickly as you can. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
Mr Pritchard's unwell. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
I had to fetch the salts for Mrs Thackeray in the night. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
She reckons it was cooked meats. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:48 | |
It isn't food that made him ill. It's drink. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
-She never said she was coming! -Just shift! | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
What the...? | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
Agnes is home. DOOR CLOSES | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
-Oh, my God. -Hallam. Can you get up? I'll explain in a moment. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
This is at an end. It was at an end last night. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
-Why, Hallam? Why do you say that? -Because last night I realised | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
that I can't trust you! | 0:03:14 | 0:03:15 | |
You don't have to trust me, Hallam! | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
We break rules together. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Not any more. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
We had a matron did this at Barnardo's once. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
She was heavier than him. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
Agnes? When did you arrive? | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
And what in the name of God is wrong with Pritchard? | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
It's all under control, sir. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
-I thought he was teetotal! -Well, he clearly isn't any more. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
PHONE RINGS | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
Holland. We are to sign the Defence Pact with the Poles. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:10 | |
Appeasement is at an end. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
Then war is inevitable, Foreign Secretary. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
I fear that is the case. Our country needs the best that we can give. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
And we shall not fail it. I will be with you directly. Sir. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:27 | |
Is there really no stopping it? No turning back? | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
I always said that conflict could only be postponed. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
Then we shall face it together. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
This isn't your responsibility, your ladyship! Where's Mrs Thackeray? | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
Indisposed! Sir Hallam must have breakfast, | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
and it would seem that Beryl is still asleep. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-She was snoring when I left her! -Go back upstairs, | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
and if she isn't out of bed, pull the covers off her! | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
Ah. It would seem that Beryl requires no help | 0:05:04 | 0:05:07 | |
with her waking arrangements. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
Harry, take the car round as soon as possible, please. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
-Don't keep Sir Hallam waiting. -Your ladyship. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
Beryl, it's perfectly obvious | 0:05:16 | 0:05:17 | |
where you spent the night. And I'm afraid I don't approve. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
I'm very sorry, your ladyship, but if you don't approve, | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
that's because you've made assumptions. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:24 | |
I'm obliged to make assumptions! | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
I'm your mistress, I'm responsible for your moral welfare! | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
Well you aren't going to be my mistress for much longer! | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
When our special licence comes through, | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
I'm getting married to Harry and we're going to America! | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
Ah. And were you planning on giving formal notice at any point? | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
I always work two weeks in hand. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:44 | |
I could forgo my wages if you want me to. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
It's not a question of what I want. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
This is my house and I am entitled to know what goes on under its roof! | 0:05:47 | 0:05:51 | |
You don't know the half of what goes on under its roof! | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
And I don't just mean below stairs, either. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
I don't like the tone of that remark. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
There's a lot you wouldn't like the tone of. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
But it's not up to me to tell you. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
You can't cut me off. You can't shove me away | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
just because your wife's come home! | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
My wife? Or your sister? | 0:06:20 | 0:06:21 | |
I'm not shoving you away. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
I'm walking away from a lethal situation. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
Persie, who have you been talking to? | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
Who have you been passing information to? | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
I haven't! | 0:06:30 | 0:06:31 | |
"Admiral Acronym" - | 0:06:31 | 0:06:32 | |
a nickname only used inside the Foreign Office. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |
Does that mean anything to you? | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
Should it? | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
I've drawn my own conclusions. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:48 | |
You wanted this. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
Now you can leave for America. I just want to know when. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
-Agnes? -Blanche! -When did you get back? -This morning. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:10 | |
I couldn't stay away - the situation's so much worse. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
Where are you? Where have you been? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
The children's refuge camp at Pakefield. It's overflowing. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
I've been trying to get to Pamela. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
-Are they going to requisition her asylum? -They already have. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
I've hired a car, but some of the roads have been blocked off. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
Do your utmost. I want the family home. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
I rather think Hallam had hoped I'd make a home elsewhere. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
The family. And that includes you. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
I need us all to be together. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:34 | |
Hadleigh, I want a review of all surveillance information. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
If the Germans have started calling Drax "Admiral Acronym", | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
they've been talking in back rooms | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
to someone with connections to this office. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
I'm sorry, Sir Hallam, but we're about to go war! | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
My department's stretched thinner than cat gut. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
I need to see if we can trace that leak! | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
Why now, sir? Why today? | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
Because Britain is aligned with Poland. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:07 | |
Germany looks to Russia. The clock is ticking, | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
and I don't want the blood of my country on my hands. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
Any particular names, sir? | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
Persephone Anne Towyn. Lady. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
Start with the Ribbentrop files. Autumn,'36. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
Has her ladyship indicated how I might be disciplined? | 0:08:35 | 0:08:41 | |
No. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:43 | |
But she will. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
I should think Miss Whisset'll have an opinion and all. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
Miss Whisset and I parted company | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
somewhat earlier in the evening. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
Because you had a drink? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
Or before you had a drink? | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
In the days when I was in my current condition | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
rather more often than I have been of late, | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
I used to find black coffee had but limited effect. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
Was there anything that had... | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
-unlimited effect? -Water. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
We used to joke about it on the Aquitania. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:28 | |
-Water, water, everywhere... -I'm not joking, Mr Pritchard! | 0:09:28 | 0:09:31 | |
And you wouldn't be either, | 0:09:31 | 0:09:32 | |
-if you were thinking clear! -Perhaps I don't want to think clear! | 0:09:32 | 0:09:37 | |
I thought you had everything so tidy in your mind! | 0:09:37 | 0:09:40 | |
I thought it was neat, like you keep the cellar. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
You showed me how to do things, Mr P. How to keep the mess at bay. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:46 | |
And off the drink. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
You taught me self-respect. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
And I want to say, "Look at you." | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
I want to grab the mirror and put it to your face | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
so you can see what I'm seeing now. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:56 | |
But I don't want to upset you. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
I looked up to you, Mr Pritchard! | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
I'm sorry, Persie. I don't think you should go out. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
-Not until the situation's clearer. -I'll loop the loop if I stay indoors! | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
Taking tea, and waiting for Armaggedon to arrive! | 0:10:14 | 0:10:16 | |
Why didn't you stay in the country, playing croquet while London burns? | 0:10:16 | 0:10:20 | |
Because Hallam needs me! How was he, whilst I was away? | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
Preoccupied by the looming conflagration. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
He saw all of this coming, he's like the Gypsy Petulengro of Whitehall. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
I shouldn't have gone. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
It did him good to miss you! | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
You ought to grab your babies and go to Pa in Wales. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
Oh Lord, Persie! I'd rather die than set foot | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
in that mould-ridden castle! | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
I thought I might head for Ireland. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
Ireland? You don't know a soul in Ireland! | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
There are racing stables everywhere. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
If you fork out for my passage, I'll soon find work. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
Persie. That's the most foolhardy thing I've ever heard | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
and we're not going to fund it. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
Well, I can't fund it myself! | 0:11:00 | 0:11:01 | |
I know you can't. You're staying here. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
So it would appear! | 0:11:04 | 0:11:05 | |
Here, in perfect, untouchable Eaton Place, | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
where nothing bad happens, and everyone is safe! | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
Ugh. Every time I let the iron warm this through | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
I get a blast of her Mitsouko! | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
Horrible, clinging scent. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:23 | |
I hope they don't have this in America, | 0:11:23 | 0:11:25 | |
I'll think of her bloomin' ladyship every time I smell it. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
Spanish Leather'll remind me of Sir Hallam. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
I get punched in the nose with it every single morning. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
It'd be Lady Agnes punching him in the nose | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
if she knew he was at it with a fancy piece. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
She should just get off her high horse. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
She's got no right making assumptions about me! | 0:11:40 | 0:11:42 | |
Bee. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
She's not like us. She's never widened her horizons, | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
never had a look at how other people live. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
To her, the rest of the world is all the same. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
Do you think I'm daft, wanting her to respect me? | 0:11:53 | 0:11:57 | |
I respect you. Isn't that what counts? | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
Put her out of your mind. We're getting married. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:07 | |
We're getting out of here. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:08 | |
Oh, look at love's young dream! | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
Fetch me the peppermint essence, Beryl, | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
that luncheon meat's repeating on me something shocking. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:18 | |
Mickey and Minnie seem to have survived our absence. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
I never missed feeding them, your ladyship. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
I didn't like to think of Master Hector's face | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
if he came home and found them floating on the top. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
Was everything quite all right, whilst I was gone? | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
Everything was...just as it usually is, your ladyship. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
As long as there was no change to the usual routines. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
I shouldn't like to think that the staff had been put out. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
Oh, no. Lady Persie kept some funny hours. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
But Sir Hallam always came home. Every night. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
All I'm saying is, I reckon she's got wind of it. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
Him, and carrying-on. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:58 | |
She looks like she's got the weight of the world on her. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
We've all got the weight of the world on us, | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
it'll be raining bombs by Friday teatime. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
I shall need 40 pounds of flour, plain white, | 0:13:07 | 0:13:10 | |
and another 25 of wholemeal. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
Hitler's not planning to bomb the bakeries! | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
You'll change your tune when we're all huddled | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
in that refuge room, | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
eating the sawdust out of Miss Buck's pincushion. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
Letters for Johnny and Harry, from the table in the hall. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
I am venturing out for some fresh air. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
You can bring me back | 0:13:31 | 0:13:32 | |
a tin of treacle while you're at it. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
-I thought I might boil up a fruit cake for the wedding. -Lyle's Black? | 0:13:35 | 0:13:39 | |
Large. And mind that mop-head when you're walking by, | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
it's still wearing a dollop of your you-know-what. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:46 | |
DOOR CLOSES | 0:14:14 | 0:14:15 | |
Writing's on the wall, then. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:21 | |
In what way? | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
Been sent for. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
Armed Forces medical, this Saturday. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
Same. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |
Only not till the ninth. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
Are you going to be called up? | 0:14:39 | 0:14:40 | |
No. I'm not. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
Because by this time next week, we are not going to be here! | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
How are we for semolina, Mrs Thack? | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
Order me five pounds. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
And the same for pudding rice. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
Trust me, we are going to get out in time. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
How are we going to get out in time? | 0:15:12 | 0:15:13 | |
We have to be married! You put in for visas for a married couple. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:18 | |
You said it yourself, you can't book our passage | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
if the papers aren't straight! | 0:15:20 | 0:15:21 | |
We've got money. I'll grease palms if I have to! | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
We shouldn't have to grease palms! | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
I just wanted things to be perfect. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
We can have perfect once we're on that boat. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
I haven't been called up yet, no-one is going to shoot me | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
for desertion. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
You're wanted, Harry! Shift yourself! | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
Don't you come out yelling at me like that! | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
Well, some bugger's got to run this flaming house! | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
What's the news? | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
The stand-off with Hitler is absolute. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
If he invades Poland, there's no turning back. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:09 | |
Cabinet sat till after two. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
-I thought you might sleep at the office. -They've brought in camp-beds | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
for the secretaries. People who missed the last train. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
But most of us can walk home. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:21 | |
And you're here. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
Night was when I missed you most. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
The Kents' sheets smell of roses. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
Ours smell of your cologne. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
They smell of yours, I always think. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
Mitsouko. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:40 | |
Even when I was gone? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:42 | |
Especially when you were gone. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:45 | |
SHOUTING AND MARCHING FEET OUTSIDE | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
What's that? | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
The Territorials are mobilised. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
I saw them marching towards Green Park. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:55 | |
Is war just a matter of time now? | 0:16:55 | 0:16:57 | |
Yes. | 0:16:57 | 0:16:58 | |
It's a matter of days. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
-MR AMANJIT: -Mr Pritchard? -KNOCKING | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
JOHNNY: Is he still not back? | 0:17:22 | 0:17:23 | |
-KNOCKING -Mr Pritchard! | 0:17:23 | 0:17:24 | |
Mr Amanjit, is he still not back? | 0:17:24 | 0:17:26 | |
Mr Pritchard! | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
I hoped he would creep home in the small hours, | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
whatever his condition was. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:37 | |
I want to say, at least he took his wallet, | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
but I don't think that's the best state of affairs. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
Come on. Downstairs. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:43 | |
He'll be on a right bender. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
Hello, darlings. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
You must be exhausted. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:52 | |
Blanche - you did it! | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
-Pamela, darling. -I've brought my gas mask. -Good. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:59 | |
Pamela's ball. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:02 | |
Excuse me, sir! Where do I apply for a marriage licence? | 0:18:12 | 0:18:16 | |
-Would that be a Standard or a Special Licence, sir? -Special. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-Directly up the stairs, round the corner to the left. -Thank you. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:23 | |
-Is this for marriage licences? -Yes. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
-Blanche? May I come in? -It's not locked. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
I'm sorry. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
I need to talk where we can't be overheard. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
You can help me with this. I have head lice. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
Caught from the children at the Kinder camp. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
-And what did Persie say? -Nothing of any use. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
Do you think I'm wrong, or hysterical, to suspect him? | 0:19:00 | 0:19:04 | |
I will think you wrong and hysterical, | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
unless there's concrete evidence. Present me with some facts. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
He wears more cologne than he used to. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:14 | |
Well...the weather is warm. He spends long days at Whitehall. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:17 | |
When I came home, he held me as though he'd never let me go. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
It's been a calendar month since you flounced out. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
He was overjoyed by your return. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
I am being an utter fool. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:31 | |
These are dark times, Agnes. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
People think dark thoughts. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
Do you think dark thoughts? | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
I try to fix my mind on some constructive purpose. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:45 | |
If I didn't, I'd feel as hysterical as you. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
I've never had a constructive purpose. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:50 | |
You've brought up your madam of a sister, | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
and built a family and a home. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
And now it's all slipping through my fingers! | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
When times change, we have to change with them. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
You will find something you can do. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:04 | |
And however you find it, | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
you will do it well. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
I remain unconvinced by this! | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
Incendiary bombs are light, they will be flung into high places. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
We cannot direct the water with the pressure so low! | 0:20:28 | 0:20:32 | |
We'll need to order two more lengths of this, and a pair of connectors, | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
-brass if possible. -That will do nothing to increase pressure! | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
I know what I'm about, Mr Amanjit! | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
I was in the college fire brigade at Girton! An all-female enterprise, | 0:20:40 | 0:20:43 | |
and very competent it was! | 0:20:43 | 0:20:46 | |
-Did somebody ring? -Fill the bucket. We require more water. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-You're spilling it on the floor! -Blanche! | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
The British Museum on the telephone. Something about embalming jars. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
Tell them that from now on, the only embalming jars I'm interested in | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
are those containing Hitler's vital organs! | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
-WATER SPURTS -Oh! | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
Can you get a move on, Eunice? This black-out performance starts | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
at 8 o'clock, and we still haven't organised the drawing room! | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
We'll have to do them hems with the pinking shears, | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
we're nearly out of time. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
I don't know why they're turning the lights out now! | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
The war hasn't started yet! | 0:21:17 | 0:21:18 | |
I reckon there's something they've not told us. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
I don't fancy your chances of getting on a boat. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
-HALLAM: -...Air raids could start as soon as war is declared. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
-London is vulnerable to attack. -Sir. -> | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
I'll be working long hours, I need to know my family are looked after. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
Especially in Pritchard's absence. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
Everything is taken care of, sir. John is being particularly diligent. | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
Petty cash is running low. Take what remains | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
to pay for sandbags, I'll speak to the bank | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
-about appropriate arrangements. -Very good, sir. -Clean this, | 0:22:05 | 0:22:09 | |
make sure it is in order and then replace it in the safe. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:14 | |
-You know the drill. -Sir. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
I see we're prepared for all eventualities. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
This is not the time for levity. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
I am at your service, sir. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:21 | |
I was being serious. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
Can I do anything to help? | 0:22:27 | 0:22:29 | |
-Ask Agnes. Or Aunt Blanche. -I tried. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
They can't make a single sensible suggestion. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:34 | |
-I find that hard to credit. -You speak as though | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
they're quite your favourite people all of a sudden. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
Persie, I'm too busy to play games. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:42 | |
COUGHING | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
He'll be underneath the arches somewhere. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
Drink's a curse for Mr Pritchard. Always was. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:10 | |
But, Miss Buck, he didn't drink! He warned me off drink... | 0:23:11 | 0:23:15 | |
Is it any wonder? It was the end of him at Cunard. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:19 | |
-But he made out he had troubles with his mastoid... -Why do you think | 0:23:19 | 0:23:24 | |
he kept his eye on you? | 0:23:24 | 0:23:28 | |
He kept his eye on everything. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:30 | |
And now he's gone, I don't know what to do. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
I wish you'd come home. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
It's not that simple, Johnny! | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
The Matron said you're going to be discharged. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
There's a war kicking off now. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
Lady Agnes might make other plans. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
The Army might make other plans for me. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
Someone's got to look after 165, Miss Buck. | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
You find Mr Pritchard... | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
and bring him home. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:08 | |
This is it now, Hallam. Off with the motley. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:14 | |
Away with the dinner jacket and the tie and tails. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:17 | |
I've been appointed Rear Admiral by my brother. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
Back in the Senior Service? | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
Desk job. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
View of Horse Guards Parade. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
Is that what you want? | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
What I want is of no consequence whatever. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:31 | |
I have a duty to fulfil. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:33 | |
If they want a figurehead, they can lash me to the mast. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
If they want a plaster saint, I will climb on a plinth | 0:24:38 | 0:24:42 | |
and I will not move a muscle. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:44 | |
I'm told you asked for the Acronym leak to be examined. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
I thought it wise to try to snare the little bird, sir. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:55 | |
The fact is, old chap, there are little birds all over London, | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
each more diminutive and shrieking than the last. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:02 | |
The Acronym leak isn't massive in the scheme of things. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
It is to me, sir. I have to get my house in order, | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |
to clear up every mess I've made, be it personal or professional... | 0:25:10 | 0:25:14 | |
..and make sure I haven't done more damage than I knew. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
I have duties too, sir. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
I advise you to attend to those which are most pressing - | 0:25:22 | 0:25:25 | |
namely, Whitehall and the war. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:28 | |
Leave all else alone. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:30 | |
There are vexations you don't need to have. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:34 | |
Sir. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:37 | |
They've already stopped the television sets, | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
in case people use them to signal to the enemy | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
and now they're going to close the cinemas. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
That means we'll never get the Wizard Of Oz! | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
Outside! Or you will miss something you will never see again. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:53 | |
# ..That you dare to dream, really do come true | 0:25:53 | 0:26:02 | |
# Some day I'll wish upon a star | 0:26:02 | 0:26:05 | |
# And wake up where the clouds are far behind me | 0:26:05 | 0:26:12 | |
# Where troubles melt like lemon drops | 0:26:14 | 0:26:17 | |
# Away above the chimney tops | 0:26:17 | 0:26:19 | |
# That's where you'll find me... # | 0:26:19 | 0:26:27 | |
They really mean it, don't they? | 0:26:30 | 0:26:33 | |
I am afraid they do. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
# ..Bluebirds fly | 0:26:36 | 0:26:40 | |

I know where you're going. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:58 | |
And I know what's in those sandwiches. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
Nasty, tough bits of brisket. Here. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
Some coconut sponge in it. Mr Pritchard's favourite. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:07 | |
Thanks, Mrs Thack. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:08 | |

SNORING | 0:27:31 | 0:27:35 | |
Get out of it! | 0:27:43 | 0:27:44 | |
JOHNNY: Mr Pritchard! | 0:27:52 | 0:27:53 | |
Mr Pritchard! | 0:27:55 | 0:27:57 | |
Mr Pritchard! | 0:28:02 | 0:28:03 | |
I can't believe you're doing that! As if everything was ordinary. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
There were cameras lined up down Whitehall yesterday. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:12 | |
Can't have Sir Hallam on the newsreel | 0:28:12 | 0:28:13 | |
getting out of a mucky car. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:15 | |
I wonder sometimes if you'll be able to leave service. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:21 | |
It's too ingrained in you. You still put the job first. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
I just want everything on an even keel until we're out of this house. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:27 | |
Once I've got his nibs to work this morning, | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
I'm off queuing down the Registry again. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:32 | |
I'm not putting the job first, | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
I'm putting us first. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:36 | |
-Do you know what? -What? | 0:28:44 | 0:28:46 | |
I'm going to do the same. | 0:28:48 | 0:28:49 | |
Johnny wants you downstairs. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:02 | |
He says not to put your black on, you've got to go to the shops. | 0:29:02 | 0:29:05 | |
I'm going to the shops. I'm going to buy my wedding dress. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:08 | |
-Yes, but he's banging on about a dozen tins of salmon. -£5. -Five? | 0:29:08 | 0:29:13 | |
As a matter of fact, I think I'll make it guineas. | 0:29:13 | 0:29:16 | |
The best establishments always deal in guineas. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:19 | |
RINGING | 0:29:20 | 0:29:22 | |
Ja, wer ist das? | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
-Friedrich? -Persie? Why are you calling me? | 0:29:24 | 0:29:28 | |
-Old times' sake. -No. | 0:29:28 | 0:29:31 | |
This is a new chapter. We are in separate countries. | 0:29:31 | 0:29:34 | |
On separate sides. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:36 | |
Actually, that's a matter for discussion. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:39 | |
No. No, it isn't. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:42 | |
Can I help you, your ladyship? | 0:30:13 | 0:30:14 | |
Not at all. I've come to see if I can help you. | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
-I'm packing the silver ready for the bank. It's in hand. -This must be the laundry. | 0:30:17 | 0:30:21 | |
-Let me unpack it, put things away. -There's no need. -Please. I need to be of use. | 0:30:21 | 0:30:25 | |
Your ladyship. I went to visit Miss Buck the other day. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:32 | |
-Oh, is she well? -Very well. At least, well enough. | 0:30:32 | 0:30:36 | |
Something the matter with Sir Hallam's shirts, your ladyship? | 0:30:38 | 0:30:42 | |
DOORBELL RINGS | 0:31:08 | 0:31:10 | |
Good afternoon, sir. | 0:31:14 | 0:31:16 | |
Who are you? I don't believe we've met. | 0:31:16 | 0:31:19 | |
I'm Miss Pamela Holland. | 0:31:19 | 0:31:21 | |
Pamela, you're not a maid. | 0:31:21 | 0:31:22 | |
And I'm Caspar Landry. She's just thinking ahead. | 0:31:22 | 0:31:25 | |
Like the poster says, "Train While There's Time!" | 0:31:25 | 0:31:29 | |
Am I right in thinking this is Assam? | 0:31:34 | 0:31:37 | |
Yes, it is. | 0:31:37 | 0:31:38 | |
When I first came to England, I thought tea was just tea. | 0:31:38 | 0:31:41 | |
I thought I'd pass as British | 0:31:41 | 0:31:43 | |
just because I knew you put the milk in last. | 0:31:43 | 0:31:45 | |
But now I can tell by just the smell of it whether it's Lapsang | 0:31:45 | 0:31:49 | |
or Broken Orange Pekoe. Whether it's from Kenya or India, even Ceylon. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:56 | |
The entire Empire runs like a river through these drawing rooms. | 0:31:56 | 0:32:00 | |
-Do you take sugar? -I'll take it from you, sweetie. | 0:32:02 | 0:32:05 | |
I shall miss it when I'm gone. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:14 | |
Gone? | 0:32:14 | 0:32:15 | |
Back to the States. I've more to go home for | 0:32:15 | 0:32:18 | |
than I have to keep me here. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:21 | |
Pamela, darling. I've just remembered that Mickey and Minnie | 0:32:25 | 0:32:28 | |
haven't been given any crumbs today. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:30 | |
Would you go and feed them a tiny piece of bread? | 0:32:30 | 0:32:33 | |
-Quickly? -No. Not quickly. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:36 | |
They have very small stomachs and they mustn't get a shock. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:40 | |
I shouldn't have called. | 0:32:45 | 0:32:46 | |
-You have much to concern you. -No, it's all right. | 0:32:46 | 0:32:49 | |
These are testing times. | 0:32:49 | 0:32:50 | |
Yes. But if a servant had answered the door | 0:32:50 | 0:32:52 | |
and you'd sent up your card on a salver... | 0:32:52 | 0:32:54 | |
Like a gentleman. | 0:32:54 | 0:32:55 | |
..I would have said that I wasn't at home. Like a lady. | 0:32:55 | 0:32:58 | |
Agnes. Nobody's going to send us to hell. | 0:32:58 | 0:33:01 | |
Open your present. | 0:33:03 | 0:33:05 | |
Nylons. | 0:33:15 | 0:33:17 | |
Landry Caresse. Fully fashioned. | 0:33:18 | 0:33:20 | |
144 pairs. You're going to need it. It will be a long war. | 0:33:20 | 0:33:25 | |
Is it going to last forever? | 0:33:25 | 0:33:27 | |
Your nylons are always so astonishingly durable. | 0:33:34 | 0:33:36 | |
Very few things last forever. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:41 | |
And when they do, it's because they're meant to be. | 0:33:41 | 0:33:45 | |
If you run out, write me. Or just write me. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:50 | |
-Where? -Care of the Ritz. | 0:33:50 | 0:33:54 | |
I can't. I need to be the best person I can be. | 0:33:56 | 0:34:00 | |
For a little while. | 0:34:02 | 0:34:03 | |
I said it once before. You're good as well as beautiful. | 0:34:06 | 0:34:10 | |
One of those things, I can't change. | 0:34:10 | 0:34:14 | |
The other, I never shall. | 0:34:14 | 0:34:17 | |
The dossier you asked for, sir. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:46 | |
About the Admiral Acronym leak. | 0:34:46 | 0:34:49 | |
Thank you, Hadleigh. | 0:34:49 | 0:34:51 | |
Your instincts were correct, sir. | 0:34:51 | 0:34:53 | |
Lady Persephone? | 0:34:55 | 0:34:56 | |
She's been in contact with London-based agents of the Reich. | 0:34:58 | 0:35:01 | |
They were known to be staying at a hotel, | 0:35:01 | 0:35:03 | |
and she was seen arriving at their quarters. It's all in there. | 0:35:03 | 0:35:06 | |
There's no suggestion of any wrongdoing on your part, sir. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:13 | |
Your conduct has been impeccable. Your records were checked, too. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:18 | |
Lady Persephone will be off your hands by Sunday. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:23 | |
Off my hands? | 0:35:23 | 0:35:25 | |
The Emergency Powers Act contains a special sub-clause, | 0:35:25 | 0:35:30 | |
Defence Regulation 18B. It enables the Government to intern anyone | 0:35:30 | 0:35:33 | |
whose conduct endangers national safety. | 0:35:33 | 0:35:36 | |
You'll arrest her? | 0:35:36 | 0:35:38 | |
And imprison her. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:39 | |
And what must I do, in the meantime? | 0:35:39 | 0:35:41 | |
Say nothing, sir. | 0:35:41 | 0:35:45 | |
Nothing at all. | 0:35:45 | 0:35:46 | |
Strain getting to you, Agnes? | 0:35:46 | 0:35:49 | |
You look frightfully pale. | 0:35:49 | 0:35:52 | |
War. Perfectly vile to the complexion. | 0:35:52 | 0:35:55 | |
I'll be rather entertained when there's a run on rouge. | 0:35:55 | 0:35:58 | |
I might stage a one-woman run on lipstick. | 0:35:58 | 0:36:00 | |
You'll have to ask Caspar Landry to send you some from New York. | 0:36:00 | 0:36:04 | |
No. American lipsticks are always indelible. | 0:36:04 | 0:36:07 | |
I just tried Dorothy Gray's Daredevil Red, | 0:36:07 | 0:36:09 | |
but my lips looked bloody. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:11 | |
I lost count of all the handkerchiefs I ruined. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:14 | |
Night was when I missed you most. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
The Kents' sheets smell of roses. Ours smell of your cologne. | 0:36:50 | 0:36:53 | |
Did you, Persie? Tell me! | 0:37:04 | 0:37:06 | |
Did you, Persie? You tell me! | 0:37:06 | 0:37:09 | |
-You tell me! -I think you ought to be asking, "Did he?" | 0:37:09 | 0:37:11 | |
Go to your bedroom now, Pamela. Go on. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:14 | |
You too, Persie. You've said enough. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:17 | |
No, she hasn't said enough! She can never say enough! When did it start? | 0:37:17 | 0:37:22 | |
Munich, to my mind. Though he may take a different view. | 0:37:22 | 0:37:26 | |
Ask him! He might tell you everything. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:29 | |
And if he doesn't, that will tell you something. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:32 | |
See if he tells you about the abortion! | 0:37:36 | 0:37:40 | |
Agnes! | 0:37:45 | 0:37:46 | |
If you've nothing to occupy you, | 0:37:55 | 0:37:57 | |
you might bring a tray of tea to my bedroom! | 0:37:57 | 0:37:59 | |
I can't breathe. | 0:38:01 | 0:38:03 | |
I can't breathe, Blanche. I... | 0:38:05 | 0:38:08 | |
I don't care if they sack me! | 0:38:08 | 0:38:10 | |
I'm not taking tea to that evil trollop's room! | 0:38:10 | 0:38:12 | |
-And you're not making it either! -Her own sister's husband! | 0:38:12 | 0:38:15 | |
She should be tarred and feathered. | 0:38:15 | 0:38:17 | |
What about Sir Hallam? None of you are criticising him. | 0:38:17 | 0:38:20 | |
Wait till he orders refreshments. | 0:38:20 | 0:38:21 | |
Don't ask about the licence, or the tickets for the boat. | 0:38:23 | 0:38:25 | |
-I've no news to tell you. -Well, we have. | 0:38:25 | 0:38:28 | |
Sir. | 0:38:45 | 0:38:47 | |
Pritchard? | 0:38:48 | 0:38:50 | |
No. | 0:38:51 | 0:38:53 | |
Stay where you are. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:55 | |
I'm afraid my behaviour has caused some inconvenience. | 0:39:01 | 0:39:05 | |
Now is not the time for me to comment. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:10 | |
Is everything as it ought to be, sir? | 0:39:10 | 0:39:14 | |
Because I couldn't help but notice as you approached | 0:39:14 | 0:39:16 | |
the strap on your attache case is not secure. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:19 | |
No. And it would appear to be too late to do anything about it. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:25 | |
It is a desperate matter when the clock can't be turned back. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:32 | |
Yes. | 0:39:32 | 0:39:33 | |
It is. | 0:39:35 | 0:39:36 | |
If you will excuse me, there are things to be restored. | 0:39:41 | 0:39:45 | |
I walked out. Cleared my desk. It was the only decent thing to do. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:03 | |
She's been peddling petty secrets for three months. | 0:40:05 | 0:40:08 | |
Things she overheard at dinner, | 0:40:08 | 0:40:10 | |
things she might have pilfered from my bag. | 0:40:10 | 0:40:13 | |
They tell me now they've had her card marked for months, | 0:40:13 | 0:40:16 | |
she'd never fully severed her link to Ribbentrop. | 0:40:16 | 0:40:20 | |
I'm surprised she still gives Ribbentrop the time of day. | 0:40:20 | 0:40:22 | |
They'll come at some point in the next 24 hours. | 0:40:26 | 0:40:30 | |
Where will they take her? | 0:40:30 | 0:40:31 | |
Holloway Prison. | 0:40:33 | 0:40:35 | |
Good. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:37 | |
I know, Hallam. | 0:40:41 | 0:40:43 | |
Agnes! | 0:40:48 | 0:40:49 | |
Agnes! | 0:40:51 | 0:40:53 | |
Agnes, you have to help me. | 0:40:53 | 0:40:57 | |
Please! | 0:40:57 | 0:40:59 | |
I'm sorry. | 0:41:04 | 0:41:06 | |
I'm so sorry. | 0:41:08 | 0:41:10 | |
Don't you remember, Agnes, when we were growing up, | 0:41:14 | 0:41:17 | |
and we'd make up a game. | 0:41:17 | 0:41:19 | |
It would go on and on, until we'd exhausted its every corner | 0:41:19 | 0:41:21 | |
and still couldn't let it go. | 0:41:21 | 0:41:23 | |
Do you remember? | 0:41:26 | 0:41:27 | |
And we'd look at each other and we'd say... | 0:41:28 | 0:41:31 | |
"Shall we go back to the beginning?" | 0:41:31 | 0:41:34 | |
Please, Agnes! Please. | 0:41:39 | 0:41:41 | |
Please can we go back to the beginning? | 0:41:43 | 0:41:45 | |
We can't. Because it's not a game. | 0:41:53 | 0:41:56 | |
I'll have to formally resign from Whitehall. | 0:42:00 | 0:42:02 | |
My marriage to Agnes is in ruins. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:05 | |
Then we can run away together. | 0:42:05 | 0:42:07 | |
Persie. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:09 | |
You can't run anywhere. | 0:42:09 | 0:42:11 | |
Operator speaking. | 0:42:44 | 0:42:45 | |
I've been waiting for a connection to Berlin. | 0:42:45 | 0:42:48 | |
The person you requested will not accept your call. | 0:42:48 | 0:42:50 | |
Next, please. | 0:43:00 | 0:43:02 | |
Next. | 0:43:17 | 0:43:18 | |
# Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye... | 0:43:19 | 0:43:23 | |
Breathe. | 0:43:23 | 0:43:26 | |
Breathe. | 0:43:28 | 0:43:30 | |
Breathe. | 0:43:31 | 0:43:33 | |
Next, please. | 0:43:39 | 0:43:42 | |
Horace Peters. Fail. Grade C3. | 0:43:45 | 0:43:48 | |
James Colclough. Pass. Grade A3. | 0:43:48 | 0:43:51 | |

# Wish me luck, here I go on my way...# | 0:43:56 | 0:43:59 | |
DIALLING TONE | 0:44:11 | 0:44:13 | |
Can you cut another inch off? | 0:44:34 | 0:44:35 | |
It'll go all frayed again. | 0:44:35 | 0:44:37 | |
I need the pinking shears. I think they're in the drawing room from when we did the blackouts. | 0:44:37 | 0:44:41 | |
-Guess what I got?! -Get away! Get away! | 0:44:45 | 0:44:48 | |
-You're not allowed to see her! -Don't be daft! It's silly superstition! | 0:44:48 | 0:44:51 | |
I'm not looking. I'm not looking. Can I just show her? | 0:44:51 | 0:44:54 | |
Excuse me! She's in her wedding dress, seeing her's bad luck! | 0:44:54 | 0:44:58 | |
-Is it the tickets or the licence? -It's the tickets and the licence! | 0:44:58 | 0:45:01 | |
Bridegroom, make yourself useful. | 0:45:01 | 0:45:03 | |
Go up to the drawing room and fetch the pinking shears! | 0:45:03 | 0:45:07 | |
-Excuse me, Lady Persephone. I was sent up for the pinking shears. -This lighter's empty. | 0:45:15 | 0:45:19 | |
Why hasn't it been refilled? | 0:45:19 | 0:45:22 | |
I'll tell Beryl, your ladyship. | 0:45:22 | 0:45:24 | |
Do you tell Beryl everything? | 0:45:24 | 0:45:26 | |
Will you go downstairs and tell her you saw me in tears, and desperate for a cigarette? | 0:45:28 | 0:45:32 | |
No...your ladyship. | 0:45:32 | 0:45:35 | |
I have matches on me, if you want a light. | 0:45:42 | 0:45:45 | |
-Would you mind awfully? -Not at all. | 0:45:47 | 0:45:50 | |
You've no idea how unendurable it is, sitting here entirely on one's own. | 0:45:58 | 0:46:02 | |
Your ladyship? | 0:46:07 | 0:46:08 | |
As I said, it's unendurable. | 0:46:15 | 0:46:17 | |
Did I ever mean anything to you, Harry? | 0:46:20 | 0:46:23 | |
Oh, honestly. I might as well go up and get it myself! | 0:46:31 | 0:46:34 | |
-What about your dress? -Well, he's seen it now! | 0:46:34 | 0:46:37 | |
Come on, it's OK. Come on. SHE SOBS | 0:46:47 | 0:46:52 | |
-Come on. Shhh. -Harry...? -FOOTSTEPS APPROACH | 0:46:54 | 0:46:57 | |
GUNSHOT No, no! | 0:46:57 | 0:47:01 | |
Oh, God! | 0:47:02 | 0:47:04 | |
Oh. | 0:47:04 | 0:47:06 | |
Look at me, look at me. | 0:47:06 | 0:47:08 | |
What do I do? What do I do? | 0:47:32 | 0:47:34 | |
Call the police, if they haven't already been sent for. | 0:47:34 | 0:47:37 | |
-Lady Persie... -Harry? | 0:47:37 | 0:47:38 | |
I can't help Lady Persie, but I can help Beryl. | 0:47:38 | 0:47:42 | |
SHE MOANS | 0:47:42 | 0:47:44 | |
BIRDS CHIRP OUTSIDE | 0:48:18 | 0:48:21 | |
Better late than never, I suppose. | 0:48:52 | 0:48:54 | |
Excellent! Straighten that collar, please, Johnny. | 0:49:14 | 0:49:17 | |
And Eunice, put your apron on. | 0:49:17 | 0:49:20 | |
-We have work to do. -Yes, Mr P. | 0:49:22 | 0:49:25 | |
Is there a war yet? | 0:49:27 | 0:49:29 | |
Almost. | 0:49:30 | 0:49:31 | |
-WIRELESS: -I am speaking to you from the Cabinet Room at 10 Downing Street. | 0:49:36 | 0:49:41 | |
This morning, the British Ambassador in Berlin | 0:49:43 | 0:49:47 | |
handed the German Government a final note... | 0:49:47 | 0:49:50 | |
..stating that unless we heard from them by 11 o'clock | 0:49:52 | 0:49:57 | |
that they were prepared at once to withdraw their troops from Poland, | 0:49:57 | 0:50:02 | |
a state of war would exist between us. | 0:50:02 | 0:50:05 | |
I have to tell you now... | 0:50:05 | 0:50:07 | |
..that no such undertaking has been received, | 0:50:08 | 0:50:13 | |
and that consequently, this country is at war with Germany. | 0:50:13 | 0:50:20 | |
CROWS CAW | 0:50:41 | 0:50:44 | |
So few people came. | 0:50:54 | 0:50:56 | |
It's standing-room only, usually, when one so young dies. | 0:50:56 | 0:51:00 | |
I've just found a pair of my earrings, and one coral dress clip. | 0:51:03 | 0:51:08 | |
Persie must have lost the other one. | 0:51:09 | 0:51:11 | |
Everything she ever had was snatched or hand-me-down. | 0:51:12 | 0:51:16 | |
Filched, or half of what by rights she should have had. | 0:51:17 | 0:51:21 | |
I'm not going to encourage you in this. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:24 | |
I loved her. But never enough. | 0:51:25 | 0:51:30 | |
Nobody ever could love her enough. | 0:51:30 | 0:51:34 | |
We should have done this when she died. | 0:51:34 | 0:51:36 | |
-What? -Opened the window to let her wretched soul out. | 0:51:38 | 0:51:43 | |
SHE SOBS | 0:51:51 | 0:51:54 | |
Nanny will take the children to stay with my father at St Cadog. Pamela can go with them. | 0:51:54 | 0:51:59 | |
That's very kind of you. | 0:52:00 | 0:52:02 | |
I've arranged for Miss Buck to go as a companion. | 0:52:02 | 0:52:04 | |
She's being discharged from her sanatorium, but can only do light work. | 0:52:04 | 0:52:08 | |
She can sit and sew with Pamela in the afternoons. | 0:52:08 | 0:52:11 | |
What about you, Agnes? | 0:52:12 | 0:52:14 | |
I'll settle them in, and then I'll come back here. | 0:52:14 | 0:52:18 | |
-I'm glad. -I won't be doing it for you. | 0:52:20 | 0:52:23 | |
Do you want a divorce? | 0:52:25 | 0:52:28 | |
I think this whole thing's been quite sordid enough. | 0:52:29 | 0:52:32 | |
Do YOU want a divorce? | 0:52:34 | 0:52:36 | |
Don't ever ask me what I want. It doesn't matter. | 0:52:36 | 0:52:39 | |
Everything that brought us to this room now was because of what you wanted. | 0:52:39 | 0:52:42 | |
It was in spite of what I wanted! | 0:52:42 | 0:52:45 | |
I don't disbelieve that. | 0:52:45 | 0:52:47 | |
But there were things I could have done and didn't, in spite of what my heart was telling me to do. | 0:52:47 | 0:52:51 | |
Then this marriage isn't equal. | 0:52:53 | 0:52:55 | |
-SHE SCOFFS -What marriage is? | 0:52:55 | 0:52:57 | |
Everything you ask of me, I will do. Everything you need from me, I promise I will give you. | 0:53:03 | 0:53:09 | |
Can we go back to the beginning? | 0:53:11 | 0:53:13 | |
-No ring. -I'll wear it, if you like. | 0:53:19 | 0:53:24 | |
But it'll only be for show. | 0:53:26 | 0:53:28 | |
# Times are hard and getting harder | 0:53:31 | 0:53:34 | |
# Still we have fun | 0:53:34 | 0:53:36 | |
# There's nothing surer | 0:53:36 | 0:53:39 | |
-# The rich get rich -And the poor get poorer | 0:53:39 | 0:53:42 | |
# In the meantime, in between time | 0:53:42 | 0:53:45 | |
-# Ain't we got fun? # -Come on! | 0:53:45 | 0:53:48 | |
# Every morning, every evening | 0:53:48 | 0:53:50 | |
# Ain't we got fun? | 0:53:50 | 0:53:53 | |
# Not much money, oh, but, honey | 0:53:53 | 0:53:56 | |
# Ain't we got fun? | 0:53:56 | 0:53:58 | |
# The rent's unpaid, dear | 0:53:58 | 0:54:01 | |
# We haven't a sou | 0:54:01 | 0:54:04 | |
# But smiles were made, dear | 0:54:04 | 0:54:06 | |
# For me and for you... # BELL RINGS | 0:54:06 | 0:54:09 | |
Everybody, ignore it! We are on holiday till half-past! | 0:54:09 | 0:54:14 | |
# Times are hard... # | 0:54:14 | 0:54:16 | |
I don't believe I've ever seen you answer your own door. | 0:54:16 | 0:54:20 | |
You'll be seeing stranger things than this, I don't doubt. | 0:54:20 | 0:54:23 | |
Our chauffeur married our housemaid today. | 0:54:24 | 0:54:27 | |
Agnes insisted that we should allow a party. | 0:54:27 | 0:54:30 | |
< APPLAUSE, CHEERING | 0:54:30 | 0:54:31 | |
I'm assured the normal scheme of things will resume this evening. | 0:54:31 | 0:54:35 | |
There is now no normal scheme of things. | 0:54:35 | 0:54:37 | |
For as long as this war lasts, we are all each other's servants. | 0:54:39 | 0:54:42 | |
-Have courage. -I've made such a godawful mess of everything. | 0:54:45 | 0:54:50 | |
I don't know what I'm going to do. | 0:54:52 | 0:54:54 | |
I do, old chap. | 0:54:54 | 0:54:56 | |
So I'll go in as an equerry, based at Buckingham Palace. | 0:54:59 | 0:55:02 | |
I've been vetted and I am not considered wanting. | 0:55:02 | 0:55:06 | |
It borders on the miraculous... | 0:55:06 | 0:55:09 | |
..with relatives like me. | 0:55:10 | 0:55:12 | |
You will stay, won't you? For Agnes' sake, if not for mine. | 0:55:16 | 0:55:20 | |
I was actually rather planning to. I've joined the Fire Brigade. | 0:55:20 | 0:55:24 | |
-'SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW' ON PIANO -# La-da-dah, di | 0:55:29 | 0:55:33 | |
# Di-di, di-di... # | 0:55:33 | 0:55:37 | |
I love that song. I love it! | 0:55:37 | 0:55:40 | |
We could dance, if you wanted. | 0:55:41 | 0:55:44 | |
There's no-one here. | 0:55:45 | 0:55:46 | |
If we did, I'd miss you when you go. | 0:55:48 | 0:55:51 | |
-I'll miss you anyway. -Will you? | 0:55:51 | 0:55:54 | |
-Will you write? -I'm stopping here. I won't have much to tell you. | 0:55:59 | 0:56:03 | |
That's why I want you to. You can be my bit of home. | 0:56:03 | 0:56:09 | |
What's this? | 0:56:34 | 0:56:37 | |
Something I owe you, sir. Something I shouldn't have taken. | 0:56:37 | 0:56:41 | |
I thought you were using it to travel to America. | 0:56:41 | 0:56:44 | |
Beryl wasn't well enough to sail. We missed our passage. | 0:56:44 | 0:56:47 | |
-I see. -Lady Agnes wrote to Mr Landry, asked him to help us, | 0:56:48 | 0:56:51 | |
but I've been passed fit for the forces now, | 0:56:51 | 0:56:54 | |
so we don't know what we're going to do. | 0:56:54 | 0:56:57 | |
We won't speak of this again. | 0:56:58 | 0:57:00 | |
Sir. | 0:57:00 | 0:57:02 | |
Do you like Mummy's outfit, Hector? It's a St John's Ambulance uniform. | 0:57:06 | 0:57:11 | |
And while you're in the country, Mummy is going to be helping people who've been hurt. | 0:57:11 | 0:57:16 | |
SIREN WAILS | 0:57:23 | 0:57:28 | |
We would appear to have an air-raid warning, your ladyship, Dr Mottershead. | 0:57:32 | 0:57:37 | |
-I advise you to take cover, if you would be so kind. -Yes, of course, Pritchard. | 0:57:37 | 0:57:40 | |
The refuge is prepared. This way, if you please. | 0:57:40 | 0:57:43 | |
SIRENS CONTINUE TO WAIL | 0:57:43 | 0:57:47 | |
