0:02:46 > 0:02:48LAUGHTER

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Yes?

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Yes? Can I help you?

0:02:59 > 0:03:02Mrs Allen? Mrs Richard Allen?

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Yes. That's right.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07I represent a firm of solicitors, madam,

0:03:07 > 0:03:09the firm of Blunden, Blunden, Claverton, and, er...

0:03:09 > 0:03:11I suppose it's about rent.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Indeed, no, madam.

0:03:13 > 0:03:14I'm no debt collector.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17I am a partner in the firm

0:03:17 > 0:03:19of Blunden, Blunden, Claverton, and...

0:03:19 > 0:03:22what on earth is that dear man's name?

0:03:22 > 0:03:25No matter. The important thing is that my news

0:03:25 > 0:03:28will, I am sure, prove entirely welcome to you.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31At least I trust it will prove

0:03:31 > 0:03:34entirely welcome to you, Mrs Allen.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37You'd better come in, then, out of the cold.

0:03:37 > 0:03:38Oh, thank you.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Stand up, children. We have a visitor.

0:04:03 > 0:04:04BABY CRIES

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Do continue, my dears.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08It is I who must apologise

0:04:08 > 0:04:09for disturbing your meal.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Do sit down.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17Perhaps you'd like a cup of tea.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21Well, the chair I accept with gratitude, madam,

0:04:21 > 0:04:23but the tea I must decline.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26I'll come straight to the purpose.

0:04:26 > 0:04:27Don't be offended.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29I'm offering you a job,

0:04:29 > 0:04:31or rather, a reasonable salaried occupation.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33Why should I be offended?

0:04:33 > 0:04:36My firm is seeking a reliable person

0:04:36 > 0:04:38to act as a caretaker

0:04:38 > 0:04:40to a property in our charge.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42So far, we've been...

0:04:42 > 0:04:44well, we've had some difficulty

0:04:44 > 0:04:46in finding anyone willing to take the post.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Difficulty? Why difficulty?

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Its...remoteness.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52You understand?

0:04:52 > 0:04:55It's a fine house, pleasantly situated,

0:04:55 > 0:04:56but it stands alone,

0:04:56 > 0:04:59some way from the nearest village.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01A woman does the cleaning.

0:05:01 > 0:05:03There's a rent-free caretaker's cottage.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Your duties would be very light.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09What do the children say?

0:05:09 > 0:05:11What do you say?

0:05:15 > 0:05:17It is awful, isn't it?

0:05:17 > 0:05:19But it's the best that I could find.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22So little money, so many debts.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25A widow's pension is all that I have.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26Well?

0:05:26 > 0:05:28BABY CRIES

0:05:28 > 0:05:29Shh!

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Excuse me. He's had a cold.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33He must have earache.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35I'll get some warm oil.

0:05:35 > 0:05:36Shh! Don't cry.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Shall I help, mother?

0:05:38 > 0:05:41No, thank you, dear. Look after our guest.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Are you - are you sure

0:06:02 > 0:06:05you wouldn't like a cup of tea?

0:06:05 > 0:06:08No, thank you... Lucy.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13But now that we are alone,

0:06:13 > 0:06:16I wonder... I wonder

0:06:16 > 0:06:19if I might ask you both a question.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21It's rather an unusual question.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Please consider it seriously.

0:06:23 > 0:06:24Of course, sir.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26You fire away.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28Yes. Fire away.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Do you think you'd be afraid

0:06:30 > 0:06:33if you saw... a ghost?

0:06:40 > 0:06:42I think, quite honestly, sir,

0:06:42 > 0:06:44I'd be a little scared.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47It would depend on what sort of ghost.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49If it was wandering around

0:06:49 > 0:06:51in a white sheet moaning,

0:06:51 > 0:06:53it would be all right.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57A skeleton with no head and a nasty grin is different.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00You can't grin if you've got no head.

0:07:00 > 0:07:01Exactly.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04Anyway, I have very good reason to believe

0:07:04 > 0:07:06there are no such visions.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09No. These ghosts would appear to you...

0:07:09 > 0:07:12well...very much like ordinary people,

0:07:12 > 0:07:14children, perhaps,

0:07:14 > 0:07:15children...

0:07:15 > 0:07:17of your own age,

0:07:17 > 0:07:20or even an old man

0:07:20 > 0:07:22such as myself.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26We wouldn't be afraid of a ghost like that.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28You wouldn't know they were ghosts,

0:07:28 > 0:07:30unless you could see through them.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Even that wouldn't be scary if they had heads.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Sometimes ghosts are people

0:07:35 > 0:07:37who come back seeking help.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39We would help if we could,

0:07:39 > 0:07:41wouldn't we, Jamie?

0:07:58 > 0:08:01I believe you understand, little lady.

0:08:01 > 0:08:02Children do, sometimes.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04But as they grow older,

0:08:04 > 0:08:07they lose their power

0:08:07 > 0:08:10to believe in the unlikely.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14When you come to the house,

0:08:14 > 0:08:17you'll hear strange tales from the villagers.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19They'll tell you it's haunted,

0:08:19 > 0:08:21but you mustn't be afraid.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23You'll know what to do.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25We shan't be afraid.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27We'll do what we can.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Thank you, Lucy, James.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32CLOCK CHIMES

0:08:32 > 0:08:35I must not stay. I've stayed too long.

0:08:35 > 0:08:36Shall I fetch mother?

0:08:36 > 0:08:38No. No time, no time.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Ask her to call at my chambers tomorrow.

0:08:41 > 0:08:42DISTANT SINGING

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Oh, the chambers -

0:08:46 > 0:08:47where is it?

0:08:47 > 0:08:49What a sensible lad.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53# Star with royal beauty... #

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Will it be there?

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Will this address be there?

0:08:57 > 0:08:58It looks a bit old.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00It will be there.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Happy Christmas! >

0:09:01 > 0:09:03What? Yes! A happy Christmas!

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Tomorrow, then. Tell them I sent you.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Claverton will be there, or young, er...

0:09:09 > 0:09:11what is his blasted name?

0:09:13 > 0:09:17# O star of wonder, star of night

0:09:17 > 0:09:19# Star with royal beauty bright

0:09:19 > 0:09:22# Westward leading, still proceeding

0:09:22 > 0:09:25# Guide us to thy perfect light... #

0:09:25 > 0:09:28James! Lucy!

0:09:28 > 0:09:33We three kings of Orient are, my dears.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36A happy, a very happy Christmas!

0:09:36 > 0:09:38BOTH: Happy Christmas!

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Who was he, anyway?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48He didn't say, did he?

0:09:48 > 0:09:50# Guide us to thy perfect light... #

0:09:51 > 0:09:53Yes, madam?

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Can I be of service?

0:09:56 > 0:10:00I've come about the job of caretaker.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02You've come about a job?

0:10:02 > 0:10:04You're looking for a caretaker

0:10:04 > 0:10:06for a remote country house.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09The job has not yet been advertised, madam.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11How did you come to hear about it?

0:10:11 > 0:10:14An old gentleman came to see me.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Jamie, you have the card.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19I expect it was Mr Blunden,

0:10:19 > 0:10:22that being the first name on the card.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24He informed me of the vacancy

0:10:24 > 0:10:26and advised me to call.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29I see. You must forgive me, madam.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Mr Blunden has not been at the office recently,

0:10:32 > 0:10:34and I did not realise

0:10:34 > 0:10:37he had taken a hand in the matter.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39If you'll give me your name,

0:10:39 > 0:10:42I will inform Mr Claverton you are here.

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Yes. Oh, Allen, Mrs Allen and my children -

0:10:46 > 0:10:50this is Lucy, James... oh, and this is Benjamin.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Thank you, Mrs Allen.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Excuse me, please.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56BABY BABBLES

0:10:57 > 0:10:59­ Excuse me, Mr Claverton.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Well, that's odd.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02That's very odd.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Very odd indeed.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Please, Mrs Allen,

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Mr Claverton will see you now.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Thank you.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21Good morning.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26You may sit down if you wish.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Jamie, look.

0:11:55 > 0:11:56It's Mr Blunden.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00So it is.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04Ahem! You are looking

0:12:04 > 0:12:05at Mr Blunden's portrait?

0:12:05 > 0:12:07He's the one who came.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10I'm afraid I've caught you out there, Sonny Jim.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12The portrait is in fact

0:12:12 > 0:12:14of Mr Blunden's great-grandfather,

0:12:14 > 0:12:16who died about 100 years ago.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20I doubt if our Mr Blunden came to see you.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23He's bedridden. Should be in a home.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29Well, dear lady, I am delighted to have

0:12:29 > 0:12:31a responsible person like yourself in charge.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34I shall write and confirm our arrangements.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Arnold.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43I feel quite certain that you'll have no trouble

0:12:43 > 0:12:45from that little matter we talked about -

0:12:45 > 0:12:47a country superstition, nothing more.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49Are you Smith?

0:12:49 > 0:12:50I beg your pardon.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53On the card - Blunden, Claverton, and Smith.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55No. I am Mr Clatterbuck.

0:12:55 > 0:12:56You should be glad.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Why?

0:12:58 > 0:13:00No-one could forget that name.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04It is a silly name.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06I'm sorry, sir.

0:13:16 > 0:13:17Cheerio, then, Herbert.

0:13:17 > 0:13:18Cheerio.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21Any more want to get off?

0:13:21 > 0:13:22Just us now, Herbert.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24The big house, please.

0:13:24 > 0:13:25Langley Park.

0:13:25 > 0:13:26Langley Park?

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Langley Park, Herbert.

0:13:28 > 0:13:29Yes, Mr Clatterbuck.

0:13:29 > 0:13:33Don't ask me to help with the bags like before.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Ghoulies and ghosties

0:13:35 > 0:13:37and long-leggety beasties

0:13:37 > 0:13:39that place has got.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Don't ask me to help.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Proceed, Herbert.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48Mere country superstition.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19Thank you, Herbert! Proceed!

0:15:58 > 0:15:59Your key, madam.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Please let us be happy here.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Bless mummy and Jamie,

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Benjy, and darling daddy. Amen.

0:16:34 > 0:16:38And don't let there be any ghosts.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41Oh, shut up, Luce.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01A-are you a ghost? Are you?

0:20:01 > 0:20:06Ha ha ha! No, dear. Me? No.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Tucker is the name, Elsie Tucker.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12I do the place as best I can,

0:20:12 > 0:20:15but as soon as I think I've cleaned,

0:20:15 > 0:20:17it's time to start again.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19It's all gold. It's all gold.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22What kiddies were you talking about, Mrs Tucker?

0:20:24 > 0:20:27Nothing to be afraid of, dear.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Them's only kiddies.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34But who are?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42I suppose she means village children

0:20:42 > 0:20:44say the house is haunted.

0:20:44 > 0:20:45Well, it probably is.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48Children know more than grownups about such things.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50Good night, Lucy.

0:20:50 > 0:20:51Good night.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Just rumours, I expect, Jamie.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56But I did hear voices. Honestly, I did.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59My dear girl, all big houses have voices

0:20:59 > 0:21:02if they're alone for a long while.

0:21:02 > 0:21:03Everyone knows that.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05Just trying to be clever.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Good night, James.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37BIRD CALLING

0:22:07 > 0:22:09James! Jamie! Come here!

0:22:09 > 0:22:11I just - look!

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Cor, you look awful, Luce.

0:22:13 > 0:22:14What's the matter?

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Well, I-I think I've seen...

0:22:17 > 0:22:18Oh, James, you know!

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Ghosts?

0:22:20 > 0:22:22James...two!

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Two? Bloomin' Henry!

0:22:27 > 0:22:30They're over there on the lawn.

0:22:31 > 0:22:32Jamie...

0:22:34 > 0:22:35Lucy.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42Lucy.

0:22:45 > 0:22:46At last!

0:22:46 > 0:22:50We have found someone with a little good sense.

0:22:50 > 0:22:51I beg your pardon.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53You didn't run away screaming.

0:22:53 > 0:22:54You didn't run away.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57Well, I did. At first, I did.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00I'm sorry, but in the mist,

0:23:00 > 0:23:02I thought you were...ghosts.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05They do say the house is haunted, you know.

0:23:05 > 0:23:06Yes, we did know.

0:23:06 > 0:23:10I suppose if we say that we are ghosts,

0:23:10 > 0:23:11you will run away.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Mr Blunden said children our own age.

0:23:15 > 0:23:16You ARE ghosts.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19You really are.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22If you are ghosts, you must be dead.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Of course we're not dead.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26You do say some stupid things.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28We're no more dead than you.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31You can be a ghost without being dead.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33He's too young to understand.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58GIRL: Georgie, I do believe we have found help.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02Tell us. Tell us how we can help.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04I mean, who are you?

0:24:04 > 0:24:07Yes. Tell us from the very beginning.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Start with "Once upon a time."

0:24:10 > 0:24:12The best stories start with that.

0:24:12 > 0:24:13James!

0:24:13 > 0:24:16GIRL: All right. Once upon a time,

0:24:16 > 0:24:18we lived very happily here.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21But in the spring of the year 1818,

0:24:21 > 0:24:24our mother and father were tragically killed

0:24:24 > 0:24:26when their carriage overturned

0:24:26 > 0:24:28coming back from London one night.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34I am the Resurrection and the life.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36He that believeth in me,

0:24:36 > 0:24:39though he be dead, yet shall he live.

0:24:39 > 0:24:42'Uncle Bertie, who was our father's half brother,

0:24:42 > 0:24:43'became our guardian.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45'Mr Blunden, the family solicitor,

0:24:45 > 0:24:47'became our other guardian.'

0:29:28 > 0:29:30Where's she going for her honeymoon?

0:29:30 > 0:29:32Paris? Rome?

0:29:32 > 0:29:34Even if it's only the Isle of Wight,

0:29:34 > 0:29:37put her out of her misery.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40It may well be the Isle of Wight.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43The Isle of Wight? Cor, strewth!

0:29:43 > 0:29:44Now, steady, dearest.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48The truth is that financially,

0:29:48 > 0:29:50I am hopelessly embarrassed - hopelessly.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53I haven't said so, as I had no wish

0:29:53 > 0:29:55to spoil our wedding day.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57You're having a good try.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00You mean you're short of the ready?

0:30:00 > 0:30:03Is that it? Well, blow me.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07What an empty bottle of gin you are.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09Who's got it all?

0:30:09 > 0:30:10Who's got it?

0:30:10 > 0:30:14Master Georgie is the only family member with money -

0:30:14 > 0:30:16£30,000, to be exact -

0:30:16 > 0:30:19left to him by his father, William.

0:30:19 > 0:30:20It would have been mine,

0:30:20 > 0:30:23but being only a half brother, Georgie gets it.

0:30:23 > 0:30:2630,000 nicker?

0:30:26 > 0:30:28Left to him in trust until he's 21.

0:30:28 > 0:30:30It can't be touched.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32It's Georgie's and his alone,

0:30:32 > 0:30:36unless he dies, of course, but heaven forbid the thought.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38But he's only 10.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40He's got years to go.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43My Bella will have gone to seed

0:30:43 > 0:30:44in 11 years.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47I'm not going to have her

0:30:47 > 0:30:49living in this mansion in poverty,

0:30:49 > 0:30:51slowly going to seed.

0:30:51 > 0:30:54Dear mother-in-law, I will find a way,

0:30:54 > 0:30:55I assure you.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58My Bella will not suffer. I promise.

0:30:58 > 0:31:00Oh, she will not.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03You are quite correct there, Albert.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06My little rose.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09My nightingale.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12That Georgie's got a lot to answer for,

0:31:12 > 0:31:13being only 10,

0:31:13 > 0:31:16and all that money going to waste.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18I shall commence my economies

0:31:18 > 0:31:21by sacking as many of the surplus staff

0:31:21 > 0:31:23in this house as I can.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25We shall have our honeymoon,

0:31:25 > 0:31:27my dearest Bella.

0:31:27 > 0:31:30Oh, make it soon, Bertie dearest.

0:31:30 > 0:31:31Make it soon.

0:31:35 > 0:31:36Did it. There. Now you.

0:31:42 > 0:31:44'Most of the staff were sacked,

0:31:44 > 0:31:47'and Mrs Wickens took over the housekeeping.'

0:31:47 > 0:31:50And good riddance to the lot of you!

0:31:52 > 0:31:55Sara, Georgie, are you trying to get me

0:31:55 > 0:31:58in the hock with your uncle?

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Get in here before you catch your death of cold!

0:32:01 > 0:32:05Well, don't dawdle. Run!

0:32:13 > 0:32:18Catch their death of colds...

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Yeah.

0:32:31 > 0:32:34Meekin, you served the master and missis, have you?

0:32:34 > 0:32:36Yes.

0:32:36 > 0:32:37Yes, Mrs Wickens.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39Yes, Mrs Wickens.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41Take those scraps to the children.

0:32:41 > 0:32:42Yes, Mrs Wickens.

0:32:42 > 0:32:46Shall I leave the windows open like you said?

0:32:46 > 0:32:47It's very cold tonight.

0:32:47 > 0:32:50Leave 'em open. It's good for 'em.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52Too much comfort's bad for children.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55Don't put no extra blankets on.

0:32:55 > 0:32:56It's bad for 'em.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58Yes.

0:32:58 > 0:32:59Yes, Mrs Wickens!

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Yes, Mrs Wickens.

0:33:01 > 0:33:02You skinny slut!

0:33:05 > 0:33:07Now, my love...

0:33:09 > 0:33:11SHE SNIFFS

0:33:11 > 0:33:12Ahh.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14How's that consomme coming along?

0:33:26 > 0:33:29There, Miss Sara. That'll keep you warm.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31It's some warm newspapers.

0:33:31 > 0:33:32DOOR OPENS

0:33:32 > 0:33:34Quick, Tom. It's Meekin.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37All right, then, good night, miss.

0:33:37 > 0:33:38Good night, master Georgie.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40Good night, Tom.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45That's a wonder, you being in bed.

0:33:47 > 0:33:48Here's your supper.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59Good night. And leave that window open.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01Mrs Wickens' orders.

0:34:09 > 0:34:10Good night, then.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12Good night, Tom.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20'For a long time,

0:34:20 > 0:34:24'we endured hard beds, scraps, and bread and water.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26'We did not truly think ourselves in danger.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28'Then, one night...'

0:34:28 > 0:34:30MRS WICKENS: Time's a-wasting away!

0:34:32 > 0:34:36It's taking too long,

0:34:36 > 0:34:38Mr Wickens.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Getting fatter, not thinner.

0:34:40 > 0:34:42Fatter, Wickens!

0:34:42 > 0:34:46Do you hear me, you ugly lump?

0:34:46 > 0:34:48Because I'm a-talking to you.

0:34:48 > 0:34:51Wickens, do you hear me? HE SNORES

0:34:51 > 0:34:54Good, because I'm talking to you.

0:34:55 > 0:34:59They didn't get no colds.

0:34:59 > 0:35:02Why? Why?

0:35:02 > 0:35:04There was a blooming hurricane

0:35:04 > 0:35:07blowing through here the other night.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10They should be wasting away with a cold.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14Aren't you interested in cash, you great lump?

0:35:14 > 0:35:16Cash!

0:35:16 > 0:35:20£30,000 if he snuffs it.

0:35:20 > 0:35:23But it will be all our darling little Bella's

0:35:23 > 0:35:26if that Georgie snuffs it.

0:35:26 > 0:35:28Her as well -

0:35:28 > 0:35:32that stuck-up Sara!

0:35:32 > 0:35:34Her as well.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36They mean us, Georgie.

0:35:36 > 0:35:37What's "snuff it," Sara?

0:35:37 > 0:35:39Do they mean to kill us?

0:35:39 > 0:35:42< An accident must befall them.

0:35:42 > 0:35:44< Can't wait forever.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46An accident -

0:35:46 > 0:35:48a quick accident, my love,

0:35:48 > 0:35:51and you are going to help me.

0:35:53 > 0:35:54Now, are you listening?

0:35:54 > 0:35:55HE SNORES

0:35:55 > 0:35:58Uncle Bertie - we must tell him at once!

0:35:58 > 0:35:59Come on!

0:36:03 > 0:36:06BELLA: Oh, you are a naughty boy.

0:36:06 > 0:36:09BERTIE: And now the muse of love, my little sausage.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12Uh, foot forward. Ha ha ha!

0:36:15 > 0:36:18Lovely, my Bella. Lovely.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21One more time, my little sausage.

0:36:23 > 0:36:24Ha ha ha!

0:36:24 > 0:36:26Lovely, my little precious one.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29Oh, please, Uncle Bertie!

0:36:29 > 0:36:32Get out! What are you doing? Get out of here!

0:36:32 > 0:36:34Wandering about at this time -

0:36:34 > 0:36:35we have no privacy.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37We're to be murdered!

0:36:37 > 0:36:39You certainly are, unless you go.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42Shall I take a strap to you?

0:36:42 > 0:36:46Mrs Wickens says that an accident should snuff us.

0:36:46 > 0:36:47Bed, Sara.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49- It's true! - It is!

0:36:49 > 0:36:50Bed, both of you!

0:36:50 > 0:36:53I'm not in the mood for drama tonight.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55Your Auntie Bella

0:36:55 > 0:36:56has been entertaining me

0:36:56 > 0:36:59with classical moments from history.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01You bring low drama.

0:37:01 > 0:37:02Be off with you!

0:37:02 > 0:37:05Bella, send them out, my love.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Yes, Bertie, my love.

0:37:07 > 0:37:11How dare you talk like that about my ma and pa. Bed!

0:37:11 > 0:37:13Please, uncle!

0:37:13 > 0:37:16For the last time, Sara -

0:37:16 > 0:37:17murders, indeed.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20Imaginations - overactive imaginations.

0:37:20 > 0:37:21Say your prayers

0:37:21 > 0:37:24and ask God to forgive you!

0:37:44 > 0:37:45(Sara?)

0:37:45 > 0:37:47(Yes?)

0:37:47 > 0:37:48(Perhaps we just imagined.)

0:37:48 > 0:37:50(We didn't, Georgie.)

0:37:50 > 0:37:52(I'm very much afraid we didn't.)

0:40:32 > 0:40:34The library, of course, silly.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36Sloppy Meekin didn't lock the door.

0:43:54 > 0:43:55'Yes. "Bergamot, Red William,

0:43:55 > 0:43:57'"pennyworsel, spritford -

0:43:57 > 0:43:59'"and drink the liquid.'

0:43:59 > 0:44:01"It will separate your minds completely

0:44:01 > 0:44:03"from the time you are in."

0:44:03 > 0:44:05Do you understand that, Georgie?

0:44:05 > 0:44:07A bit.

0:44:07 > 0:44:10Perhaps this is our chance, Georgie. Look.

0:44:10 > 0:44:13"To make the mind still, to escape from time."

0:44:13 > 0:44:14There, Georgie - to escape.

0:44:14 > 0:44:17Somebody's trying to tell us how to escape,

0:44:17 > 0:44:19not to another place,

0:44:19 > 0:44:20but to another time.

0:44:20 > 0:44:22Oh, Georgie.

0:44:22 > 0:44:24POUNDING

0:44:42 > 0:44:44It might be poisonous, Georgie.

0:44:44 > 0:44:45I've thought of that.

0:44:45 > 0:44:48I'll put it in Mrs Wickens' gin

0:44:48 > 0:44:50to see if she'll die.

0:44:50 > 0:44:51Suppose she does die.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53Good if she does.

0:44:53 > 0:44:54But that'll be murder.

0:44:54 > 0:44:57I'm not giving it her because it's poison.

0:44:57 > 0:44:59I'm making sure it isn't.

0:44:59 > 0:45:03Why are you pulling a funny face?

0:45:07 > 0:45:09HE SNORES

0:45:25 > 0:45:27DOOR OPENS

0:46:00 > 0:46:03It's either Mrs Wickens or her cat

0:46:03 > 0:46:06and that cat never did anyone any harm.

0:46:08 > 0:46:11Breakfast, you brats!

0:46:11 > 0:46:13Oh!

0:46:15 > 0:46:17Sara?

0:46:17 > 0:46:18Yes?

0:46:18 > 0:46:20It wasn't poison.

0:46:24 > 0:46:27Go with you back to your time?

0:46:27 > 0:46:28Well, how can we?

0:46:28 > 0:46:31You can brew the potion as we did.

0:46:31 > 0:46:35It depends upon whether your will is great enough.

0:46:35 > 0:46:38We won't let that old woman do you in.

0:46:38 > 0:46:40Snuff us?

0:46:40 > 0:46:41Snuff you. We'll help.

0:46:41 > 0:46:44Sara, I don't feel well.

0:46:46 > 0:46:47< Sara.

0:46:47 > 0:46:50When you get back, I shall be there.

0:46:50 > 0:46:54Sara...Sara...

0:46:54 > 0:46:57Sara...

0:46:59 > 0:47:01It's because he's so young.

0:47:01 > 0:47:03He often returns before me.

0:47:03 > 0:47:05We've always arrived back together.

0:47:05 > 0:47:07Hurry. Georgie is a warning

0:47:07 > 0:47:09that I may soon follow him.

0:47:09 > 0:47:11Now, please don't forget.

0:47:11 > 0:47:14Put five leaves of each into a bowl

0:47:14 > 0:47:16and pour on hot water.

0:47:16 > 0:47:18Keep it warm for an hour

0:47:18 > 0:47:21and strain it off through a muslin cloth.

0:47:21 > 0:47:25Bring the potion and meet me here at sunset tomorrow.

0:47:25 > 0:47:29Promise you will not fail us, Jamie!

0:47:29 > 0:47:31Promise!

0:47:31 > 0:47:35Promise! Please promise!

0:47:48 > 0:47:50I promise!

0:47:50 > 0:47:51I promise, Sara!

0:47:51 > 0:47:54Let us resolve that within us shall die

0:47:54 > 0:47:59all the uncharitable thoughts, the corrosive indifference,

0:47:59 > 0:48:03the acts of selfishness, the impurity of thought

0:48:03 > 0:48:06that comes between us and the love of God.

0:48:06 > 0:48:09In the name of the Father, the Son,

0:48:09 > 0:48:11and the Holy Ghost, amen.

0:48:11 > 0:48:14Shall we sing hymn number 292?

0:48:22 > 0:48:27# Through the night, our heart and soul

0:48:27 > 0:48:30# Onward calls the pilgrim land #

0:48:30 > 0:48:34Mother, would you mind if Lucy and I left?

0:48:34 > 0:48:37- No point in asking why? - No.

0:48:37 > 0:48:39All right. Not too late back.

0:48:39 > 0:48:41Lunch at 12.30.

0:48:41 > 0:48:45# Clear before us through the darkness

0:48:45 > 0:48:49# Gleams and burns the guiding light #

0:48:49 > 0:48:52Lucy, I've just had a brilliant idea.

0:48:52 > 0:48:53What?

0:48:53 > 0:48:55Let's hunt in the churchyard.

0:48:55 > 0:48:57- Why? - Sometimes you're really dim.

0:48:57 > 0:48:59If none of the gravestones

0:48:59 > 0:49:01say Sara and Georgie,

0:49:01 > 0:49:03we'll know they didn't die.

0:49:03 > 0:49:04We shall know in advance

0:49:04 > 0:49:06that we've saved them.

0:49:06 > 0:49:08We'll know everything will be OK.

0:49:08 > 0:49:11I told you it was a brilliant idea.

0:49:11 > 0:49:13MAN: Shh! Quiet, you children!

0:49:18 > 0:49:20I don't like it, Jamie -

0:49:20 > 0:49:22not one bit.

0:49:22 > 0:49:24It's just not nice.

0:49:24 > 0:49:26I'm not going to look.

0:49:26 > 0:49:27Don't, then.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33"William." No.

0:49:51 > 0:49:54"Sara Catherine Latimer. George."

0:49:54 > 0:49:57Lucy! Lucy, come here!

0:50:07 > 0:50:09"Sara Catherine Latimer,

0:50:09 > 0:50:12"George Richard Latimer,

0:50:12 > 0:50:15died April 21st, 1818.

0:50:15 > 0:50:17That's tomorrow, Lucy -

0:50:17 > 0:50:20tomorrow, only 100 years ago.

0:50:20 > 0:50:23That's right. It were 100 year ago.

0:50:23 > 0:50:26Poor little things. It were a real tragedy.

0:50:26 > 0:50:28Do you know who they were?

0:50:28 > 0:50:31I could tell you about every blessed grave

0:50:31 > 0:50:33in this churchyard.

0:50:33 > 0:50:37I've been sexton here nigh on 40 year now.

0:50:37 > 0:50:39Please, who were they?

0:50:39 > 0:50:42A fire it were, while they were abed -

0:50:42 > 0:50:44a furnace of a fire.

0:50:44 > 0:50:46Started in the library.

0:50:46 > 0:50:48The books burned like tinder,

0:50:48 > 0:50:52and nobody could get to them because of the heat.

0:50:52 > 0:50:54In the corner by here -

0:50:54 > 0:50:56come along here with me,

0:50:56 > 0:50:59and I'll show you this gravestone down here.

0:50:59 > 0:51:02There. You see? No headstone.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05Some say the gardener's son tried to save them -

0:51:05 > 0:51:07a little lad. Don't know his name.

0:51:07 > 0:51:11My grandfather told me when I was about your age

0:51:11 > 0:51:13about this little lad.

0:51:13 > 0:51:15He climbed the drainpipe to the bedroom window.

0:51:15 > 0:51:18Somehow, the pipe gave way,

0:51:18 > 0:51:21and he come plunging down and was killed.

0:51:21 > 0:51:24And then there was the guardian -

0:51:24 > 0:51:26an old gentleman, a lawyer.

0:51:26 > 0:51:29Well, he was at the house that night.

0:51:29 > 0:51:31Mr Blunden.

0:51:31 > 0:51:32I know.

0:51:32 > 0:51:34His carriage broke down,

0:51:34 > 0:51:36and when he seen the flames,

0:51:36 > 0:51:38he come riding back.

0:51:38 > 0:51:41And when he seen that they were dead,

0:51:41 > 0:51:43he took on real cruel.

0:51:43 > 0:51:46"Too late, too late, too late," he kept saying,

0:51:46 > 0:51:48and then he starts a-crying.

0:51:48 > 0:51:51Some say he died of grief.

0:51:51 > 0:51:52Others say he was

0:51:52 > 0:51:54never quite right again,

0:51:54 > 0:51:57and some claim to have seen his ghost

0:51:57 > 0:51:59wandering about the old house -

0:51:59 > 0:52:00Langley Park there -

0:52:00 > 0:52:02and the ghosts of the two children.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05Have people... well, I mean,

0:52:05 > 0:52:08have people really seen them?

0:52:08 > 0:52:11Indeed. For the last 100 years, they have.

0:52:11 > 0:52:14It's haunted. You don't want to go anywhere near there.

0:52:14 > 0:52:16It's haunted, all right.

0:52:16 > 0:52:17Don't go near there.

0:52:17 > 0:52:19We've got to.

0:52:19 > 0:52:20You've got to? Why?

0:52:20 > 0:52:22We live there.

0:52:22 > 0:52:26I was only joshing. I made it all up, I did.

0:52:26 > 0:52:29There's no such things as ghosts.

0:52:29 > 0:52:30That depends entirely

0:52:30 > 0:52:32on your point of view.

0:52:35 > 0:52:39Well, there is ghosts, you see, because I've seen 'em now.

0:52:53 > 0:52:55Make sure the top's on tight.

0:52:55 > 0:52:58We don't want to make it all again.

0:52:58 > 0:53:00We're late. Come on.

0:53:05 > 0:53:07Sara!

0:53:07 > 0:53:09Sara!

0:53:11 > 0:53:14I thought you had changed your minds.

0:53:16 > 0:53:18Where's Georgie?

0:53:18 > 0:53:20He had a slight disagreement with Mrs Wickens.

0:53:20 > 0:53:23She's locked him in the cellar.

0:53:23 > 0:53:24Tom is guarding him. We can't be long.

0:53:24 > 0:53:27I only drank a little of the potion.

0:53:28 > 0:53:31Before anything else, we must tell you that...

0:53:31 > 0:53:32James!

0:53:32 > 0:53:34James, whatever it is, tell me.

0:53:34 > 0:53:37Well, it was in the graveyard.

0:53:37 > 0:53:41On the tombstone, we found your name and George's.

0:53:41 > 0:53:46The sexton said it was a fire.

0:53:46 > 0:53:49It's true. It was a fire.

0:53:49 > 0:53:51Oh, Sara.

0:53:51 > 0:53:53I know about the grave.

0:53:53 > 0:53:55I've never told Georgie,

0:53:55 > 0:53:57but I know.

0:53:57 > 0:54:01But the date, Sara - it was 100 years ago tomorrow.

0:54:01 > 0:54:05That's true. Blunden, remember? Camden Town.

0:54:05 > 0:54:07Oh, yes.

0:54:11 > 0:54:13We haven't much time, my dears.

0:54:14 > 0:54:17Excuse me, sir, but are you dead, too?

0:54:17 > 0:54:19Part of me, James.

0:54:19 > 0:54:21I'm the dead part of Blunden.

0:54:21 > 0:54:23The other part of me

0:54:23 > 0:54:26wouldn't listen to Sara and Georgie's pleas -

0:54:26 > 0:54:28the Blunden who failed them.

0:54:28 > 0:54:31I have suffered for 100 years,

0:54:31 > 0:54:33tormented by my own conscience.

0:54:33 > 0:54:35Seems more like a thousand years.

0:54:35 > 0:54:37I've been given the chance

0:54:37 > 0:54:40to put right the terrible wrong I've done

0:54:40 > 0:54:43and to bring my punishment to an end,

0:54:43 > 0:54:47but first, I have to find someone to trust me,

0:54:47 > 0:54:49to trust me with his life.

0:54:49 > 0:54:52And lastly, I must go back

0:54:52 > 0:54:55to undo the harm I've caused.

0:54:56 > 0:54:58Mr Blunden, sir,

0:54:58 > 0:55:00I'm the one who has to trust you.

0:55:00 > 0:55:04That's why you brought us here to Langley Park

0:55:04 > 0:55:06and came to Camden Town.

0:55:06 > 0:55:09Yes. It's not an easy thing, I know, James,

0:55:09 > 0:55:12but all will be revealed, my dears.

0:55:12 > 0:55:15Tell me what to do.

0:55:15 > 0:55:17That is not yet clear.

0:55:17 > 0:55:20Whatever it may be, nothing shall harm you.

0:55:20 > 0:55:23I promise that I shall guard you from all dangers,

0:55:23 > 0:55:25however they may come.

0:55:25 > 0:55:27I know I'm not worthy,

0:55:27 > 0:55:29but it's our only hope -

0:55:29 > 0:55:33Sara's, Georgie's, and mine.

0:55:41 > 0:55:44Thank you.

0:55:46 > 0:55:49Lucy, you must trust him, too.

0:55:51 > 0:55:54I'll try. I really will.

0:55:54 > 0:55:55Thank you.

0:56:02 > 0:56:04It's time to go.

0:56:19 > 0:56:20Go on.

0:56:20 > 0:56:22Oh, Jamie.

0:56:22 > 0:56:23Go on.

0:56:26 > 0:56:28And a bit more.

0:57:00 > 0:57:02James...

0:57:02 > 0:57:07Jamie...Jamie....

0:57:07 > 0:57:09Jamie....

0:57:09 > 0:57:11Lucy.

0:57:11 > 0:57:12It's working.

0:57:12 > 0:57:14It's time to go.

0:57:15 > 0:57:17MR BLUNDEN: Nothing shall harm you.

0:57:17 > 0:57:21The sexton said it was a fire.

0:57:21 > 0:57:24SARA: Promise you'll not fail us.

0:57:24 > 0:57:27JAMIE: Go with you back to your time?

0:57:27 > 0:57:30TOM: I see by the way you're dressed.

0:57:30 > 0:57:32I see by the way you're dressed.

0:57:32 > 0:57:35I see by the way you're dressed

0:57:35 > 0:57:37you don't come from hereabouts.

0:57:37 > 0:57:40Are you from America - the New World?

0:57:40 > 0:57:42You could say we've come

0:57:42 > 0:57:44from the New World.

0:57:44 > 0:57:46They say it's a wonderful place.

0:57:46 > 0:57:49Uh, yes, it is.

0:57:49 > 0:57:51It is a terrible long journey.

0:57:51 > 0:57:53It's one I plan to make.

0:57:53 > 0:57:55Miss Sara's been teaching me

0:57:55 > 0:57:57to read and write.

0:57:57 > 0:57:59I'll go try my fortune.

0:57:59 > 0:58:01There's a future in America

0:58:01 > 0:58:05for a young man as can read and write.

0:58:05 > 0:58:08Yes, Tom, yes. How's my brother?

0:58:08 > 0:58:09He's safe,

0:58:09 > 0:58:11but he's growing hungry.

0:58:11 > 0:58:13MRS WICKENS: Sara! Sara!

0:58:13 > 0:58:16Sara.

0:58:16 > 0:58:18Sara!

0:58:18 > 0:58:19Sara.

0:58:19 > 0:58:23Where are you, you hussy?

0:58:23 > 0:58:26Kissing and cuddling with that garden boy,

0:58:26 > 0:58:27no doubt.

0:58:27 > 0:58:29I know your game.

0:58:29 > 0:58:31I'll face her.

0:58:31 > 0:58:32I'm not afraid of her.

0:58:32 > 0:58:35I'd die for you, Miss Sara.

0:58:35 > 0:58:37Go quickly, for my sake.

0:58:37 > 0:58:38Please!

0:58:38 > 0:58:40Oh, all right.

0:58:45 > 0:58:46Should we go, too?

0:58:46 > 0:58:49No. Stay in the shadows.

0:58:49 > 0:58:50Sara!

0:58:52 > 0:58:54Sara!

0:59:03 > 0:59:06HORSE WHINNIES

0:59:06 > 0:59:08WHINNY

0:59:46 > 0:59:48So there you are.

0:59:48 > 0:59:50And all alone, I see.

0:59:50 > 0:59:52Who was here with you,

0:59:52 > 0:59:54one of them vulgar servants?

0:59:54 > 0:59:56You've got no sense, miss,

0:59:56 > 0:59:58and you've got no taste.

0:59:58 > 1:00:02I came to speak to Georgie in the cellar.

1:00:02 > 1:00:04You came to speak to him

1:00:04 > 1:00:06in the cellar.

1:00:06 > 1:00:08Where is the cellar, miss?

1:00:08 > 1:00:10Under the kitchen, Mrs Wickens.

1:00:10 > 1:00:13It's under the kitchen, Mrs Wickens.

1:00:13 > 1:00:16What are you doing in the stable?

1:00:16 > 1:00:18The cellar ain't here.

1:00:18 > 1:00:20No, Mrs Wickens.

1:00:20 > 1:00:23I was going to talk through the grating.

1:00:23 > 1:00:25Well, it will be boarded up

1:00:25 > 1:00:27in the morning.

1:00:27 > 1:00:29Please let him out.

1:00:29 > 1:00:31He's only a little boy.

1:00:31 > 1:00:34Don't talk to me about that brat!

1:00:34 > 1:00:35After what he said,

1:00:35 > 1:00:38he might stay until Christmas

1:00:38 > 1:00:40next year.

1:00:40 > 1:00:42Me arm's gone mad.

1:00:47 > 1:00:49Get back. Back!

1:00:50 > 1:00:52What's that? Who did that?

1:00:52 > 1:00:55I'll do it again.

1:00:55 > 1:00:57You've got persons

1:00:57 > 1:00:59aiding and abetting you?

1:00:59 > 1:01:00It was me!

1:01:02 > 1:01:04Last month it was Chinamen

1:01:04 > 1:01:06coming out of the barn.

1:01:06 > 1:01:07Now it's invisible beings

1:01:07 > 1:01:09trying to grab my body.

1:01:09 > 1:01:11Are we ghosts?

1:01:11 > 1:01:12Yes.

1:01:12 > 1:01:14She's too old and insensitive.

1:01:14 > 1:01:16Who is?

1:01:16 > 1:01:18Who's too blooming old?

1:01:19 > 1:01:21To your room, miss!

1:01:21 > 1:01:23Come on. Don't you dawdle.

1:01:23 > 1:01:25Georgie stays where he is.

1:01:25 > 1:01:27James.

1:01:27 > 1:01:28What?

1:01:28 > 1:01:30She didn't see us.

1:01:30 > 1:01:32Mrs Wickens didn't see us.

1:01:32 > 1:01:35We're ghosts. We really are.

1:01:37 > 1:01:39Bloomin' Henry.

1:01:40 > 1:01:42Mrs Wickens, you're hurting me.

1:01:42 > 1:01:45I'll hurt you if I have my way.

1:01:45 > 1:01:47Children have it too good.

1:01:47 > 1:01:51Meekin! Meekin!

1:01:51 > 1:01:53Yes?

1:01:53 > 1:01:55Yes, Mrs Wickens.

1:01:55 > 1:01:58Lock Miss Sara in her bedroom.

1:01:58 > 1:01:59Yes, Mrs Wickens.

1:01:59 > 1:02:01Yes, Mrs Wickens.

1:02:01 > 1:02:03Mamma. Mamma. Mamma.

1:02:04 > 1:02:08See my new pink silk?

1:02:09 > 1:02:15Oh, Bella, you look a picture.

1:02:15 > 1:02:18Do us a turn around, my thrush, my linnet.

1:02:18 > 1:02:21Let your old ma see you.

1:02:21 > 1:02:24Oh, Bella, you look a picture.

1:02:24 > 1:02:25Wait till that Bertie

1:02:25 > 1:02:27casts his eyes on you.

1:02:27 > 1:02:30He'll go all in a heap.

1:02:30 > 1:02:32Ain't it pretty, Sara Sue?

1:02:32 > 1:02:37# Ain't it pretty, Sara Sue?

1:02:37 > 1:02:41# Would it look the same on you?

1:02:41 > 1:02:44# Ain't it pretty? #

1:02:44 > 1:02:45Very pretty, Bella.

1:02:45 > 1:02:47Yes, it is.

1:02:47 > 1:02:48Thank you.

1:02:48 > 1:02:51JAMIE: She looks like a pig.

1:02:51 > 1:02:53Aah!

1:02:53 > 1:02:56She's having one of her turns.

1:02:56 > 1:02:57Can she see us?

1:02:57 > 1:03:01She's got a child's mind. Perhaps she can.

1:03:01 > 1:03:02BELLA: Aah!

1:03:02 > 1:03:05Aah!

1:03:05 > 1:03:07SHE CRIES

1:03:07 > 1:03:08All around me - ghosts.

1:03:08 > 1:03:12I can see through them - right through them.

1:03:12 > 1:03:16Hush now, Bella. There ain't nobody there.

1:03:16 > 1:03:19You haven't been in my gin, have you?

1:03:19 > 1:03:21They're there. There.

1:03:21 > 1:03:24Hear me, Bella.

1:03:24 > 1:03:26I'll haunt you until you release

1:03:26 > 1:03:29little Georgie from the cellar.

1:03:30 > 1:03:32Let Georgie out.

1:03:32 > 1:03:35Then perhaps they'll leave me alone.

1:03:35 > 1:03:38Who will leave you alone, love?

1:03:38 > 1:03:41There's nobody there.

1:03:41 > 1:03:43Let Georgie go.

1:03:46 > 1:03:48Don't overdo it.

1:03:48 > 1:03:49What is going on?

1:03:49 > 1:03:51I heard screaming.

1:03:51 > 1:03:52Bella.

1:03:56 > 1:03:59- Oh, Bertie. - Bella.

1:03:59 > 1:04:01I was that scared.

1:04:01 > 1:04:03Tell ma to let him out,

1:04:03 > 1:04:05or they'll be after me again.

1:04:05 > 1:04:08Let who out? Who's after you?

1:04:08 > 1:04:10BERTIE: What's going on?

1:04:10 > 1:04:11Mrs Wickens?

1:04:11 > 1:04:13Master Georgie was very rude, sir -

1:04:13 > 1:04:17Bertie, dear - very rude.

1:04:17 > 1:04:19I put him in the cellar

1:04:19 > 1:04:22to cool his blood off, sir.

1:04:22 > 1:04:25Release him at once.

1:04:25 > 1:04:28I will not have Bella distressed.

1:04:28 > 1:04:29Fetch some smelling salts.

1:04:29 > 1:04:31Yes, sir.

1:04:31 > 1:04:33Why are you waiting?

1:04:33 > 1:04:36Son-in-law, my dear,

1:04:36 > 1:04:39how can I leave my baby like this?

1:04:39 > 1:04:41My wife, mother-in-law,

1:04:41 > 1:04:43is perfectly all right with me.

1:04:43 > 1:04:45You do as I say.

1:04:45 > 1:04:47Oh, if you shout,

1:04:47 > 1:04:49I'll have a heart attack.

1:04:49 > 1:04:51I'll have heart failure.

1:04:51 > 1:04:52Oh! Oh, no! Oh!

1:04:52 > 1:04:55I think I'm having it. I'm off.

1:04:55 > 1:04:57You are off, Mrs Wickens.

1:04:57 > 1:04:59Get up.

1:04:59 > 1:05:01Your performance is not convincing.

1:05:01 > 1:05:03Get up, I say,

1:05:03 > 1:05:04and release Georgie instantly.

1:05:06 > 1:05:09BERTIE: Go with her, Sara.

1:05:09 > 1:05:12Now, my little sausage.

1:05:12 > 1:05:13Who is after you?

1:05:13 > 1:05:16We are.

1:05:17 > 1:05:19Oh, my God.

1:05:19 > 1:05:24Mamma. Mamma. Mamma. Mamma. Mamma. Mamma.

1:05:24 > 1:05:27Mamma...mamma... mamma...

1:05:27 > 1:05:29mamma...mamma...

1:05:29 > 1:05:30mamma...

1:05:30 > 1:05:41BERTIE, BELLA AND MR WICKENS: Mamma. Mamma. Mamma. Mamma. Mamma. Mamma.

1:05:45 > 1:05:49What is all that noise downstairs?

1:05:49 > 1:05:50They are having dinner.

1:05:52 > 1:05:53Why don't we eavesdrop?

1:05:53 > 1:05:55We might find out

1:05:55 > 1:05:56what they're up to.

1:06:00 > 1:06:03(Georgie, if you're coming with us,

1:06:03 > 1:06:05(you have to be quiet. Promise?)

1:06:05 > 1:06:07(Promise.)

1:06:07 > 1:06:08They're finishing.

1:06:08 > 1:06:10(There's Mr. Blunden.)

1:06:10 > 1:06:13(It's all falling into shape.)

1:06:13 > 1:06:14Time is running out.

1:06:14 > 1:06:17Can't bear to think of it.

1:06:17 > 1:06:19BELLA: Your nightingale will be sad

1:06:19 > 1:06:20without you.

1:06:20 > 1:06:24BERTIE: It will only be for a few days.

1:06:24 > 1:06:26Mr Blunden thinks it advisable

1:06:26 > 1:06:28I go with him to London.

1:06:28 > 1:06:30Mr Blunden doesn't know

1:06:30 > 1:06:32how sorry he will be.

1:06:32 > 1:06:33Now, Georgie,

1:06:33 > 1:06:35what shall we do with it?

1:06:35 > 1:06:38It will save a great deal of time.

1:06:38 > 1:06:41I must get money, my sausage.

1:06:41 > 1:06:42Mr Blunden, sir,

1:06:42 > 1:06:44Uncle Bertie won't feed us.

1:06:44 > 1:06:48He doesn't care if we snuff it.

1:06:48 > 1:06:49You are mischievous children.

1:06:49 > 1:06:51Your uncle is a kind

1:06:51 > 1:06:53and considerate guardian.

1:06:53 > 1:06:55You should be more careful.

1:06:55 > 1:06:57Mrs Wickens means to harm us.

1:06:57 > 1:07:00I know she does. Don't leave.

1:07:00 > 1:07:01Please listen to her.

1:07:01 > 1:07:03Bertie, surely they cannot mean

1:07:03 > 1:07:05to accuse dear mamma.

1:07:05 > 1:07:06Of course not, dearest.

1:07:06 > 1:07:08Your mother is splendid -

1:07:08 > 1:07:10kind and considerate always.

1:07:10 > 1:07:13Your mother is an old witch.

1:07:13 > 1:07:16YELLING

1:07:17 > 1:07:20I can't bear it. I can't bear it.

1:07:20 > 1:07:22How dare you talk to me

1:07:22 > 1:07:24like that?

1:07:27 > 1:07:30I'll go. If Mr Blunden sees me,

1:07:30 > 1:07:32he might remember what will happen.

1:07:32 > 1:07:34How can he remember it?

1:07:34 > 1:07:35He must remember something.

1:07:35 > 1:07:37He brought us here.

1:07:40 > 1:07:42There are two of you.

1:07:45 > 1:07:46Two Mr Blundens.

1:07:46 > 1:07:49Yes, James, there are two of us.

1:07:49 > 1:07:51We're both the same man,

1:07:51 > 1:07:53but he wouldn't know.

1:07:53 > 1:07:55It was I who brought you.

1:07:55 > 1:07:57But if I told him...

1:07:59 > 1:08:02(He wouldn't see or hear you.)

1:08:02 > 1:08:06(He's a shallow, insensitive man.)

1:08:06 > 1:08:07It's very difficult, Mr Blunden.

1:08:07 > 1:08:09We came to help you,

1:08:09 > 1:08:12but there's little we can do.

1:08:12 > 1:08:13It's not yet time.

1:08:13 > 1:08:16(Everything must go on as before -

1:08:16 > 1:08:19(for a while anyway - just as before.)

1:08:19 > 1:08:22(Now, you must just wait

1:08:22 > 1:08:24(and be patient.)

1:08:24 > 1:08:27(Wait and be patient.)

1:08:29 > 1:08:33(Wait and be patient.)

1:08:41 > 1:08:43BERTIE: I'll return

1:08:43 > 1:08:45when I've raised enough money

1:08:45 > 1:08:47to keep us happy.

1:08:47 > 1:08:48It's all occurring,

1:08:48 > 1:08:50my dearest sausage.

1:08:50 > 1:08:53Shall we go, Blunden?

1:08:53 > 1:08:54Au revoir, my daughter

1:08:54 > 1:08:56of a unique mother.

1:09:26 > 1:09:27Now, Luce.

1:09:36 > 1:09:38Sara.

1:09:38 > 1:09:39Sara.

1:09:39 > 1:09:41Sara.

1:09:41 > 1:09:43Georgie.

1:09:43 > 1:09:45We must find them.

1:09:45 > 1:09:47I'm sure the time is now,

1:09:47 > 1:09:48with Blunden leaving

1:09:48 > 1:09:50and Sara inside the house.

1:09:50 > 1:09:52(It will be soon, Lucy.)

1:09:52 > 1:09:56Perhaps Mrs Wickens didn't put them in the cellar.

1:09:56 > 1:09:58Perhaps they're in the nursery.

1:10:06 > 1:10:08(Lucy!)

1:10:08 > 1:10:09(I've just thought.)

1:10:09 > 1:10:11(The nursery's over the library.)

1:10:11 > 1:10:13(That's where the fire started.)

1:10:13 > 1:10:15James, it is happening

1:10:15 > 1:10:17like before.

1:10:17 > 1:10:19Come on. Come on.

1:10:28 > 1:10:30THUMP

1:10:30 > 1:10:33FOOTSTEPS AND HUMMING

1:10:33 > 1:10:36Quick, we'd better get out of sight.

1:10:36 > 1:10:37Bella can see us.

1:10:40 > 1:10:43# I'm a naughty girl

1:10:43 > 1:10:47# And you're a naughty boy... #

1:10:57 > 1:10:59BELLA: I'm doing this secretly,

1:10:59 > 1:11:02out of the kindness of me heart.

1:11:02 > 1:11:03Hurry up and drink it.

1:11:03 > 1:11:05SARA: That's very kind.

1:11:09 > 1:11:10LUCY: Get the key.

1:11:10 > 1:11:12If we take it,

1:11:12 > 1:11:14she'll tell her mother it's missing.

1:11:14 > 1:11:16Follow her when she leaves

1:11:16 > 1:11:18and see what she does.

1:11:18 > 1:11:19SARA: Good night.

1:11:24 > 1:11:27# I'm a naughty girl

1:11:27 > 1:11:29# And you're a naughty boy

1:11:29 > 1:11:31# It takes a naughty girl

1:11:31 > 1:11:34# To make a naughty boy...

1:11:38 > 1:11:41# And they make a naughty game #

1:11:41 > 1:11:43Did they drink it all?

1:11:43 > 1:11:44Yes, ma.

1:11:44 > 1:11:46Cor, that hurts, ma!

1:11:46 > 1:11:48I told them like you said -

1:11:48 > 1:11:49I was doing it

1:11:49 > 1:11:52out of the kindness of me heart.

1:11:52 > 1:11:55I wanted them to get a good sleep.

1:11:55 > 1:11:57They'll sleep all right.

1:11:57 > 1:11:59There's my good little girl.

1:11:59 > 1:12:00Don't want them to think

1:12:00 > 1:12:02I'm getting soft.

1:12:02 > 1:12:04Take this tray to the kitchen

1:12:04 > 1:12:08and wash them mugs very hard -

1:12:08 > 1:12:10very hard.

1:12:10 > 1:12:13Don't want no sediment.

1:12:13 > 1:12:15Wash them in boiling water.

1:12:15 > 1:12:16Yes, ma. >

1:12:21 > 1:12:23Do something, quick.

1:12:29 > 1:12:31MUSIC PLAYS

1:13:37 > 1:13:39I'll get into her room.

1:13:39 > 1:13:41We need that key.

1:13:41 > 1:13:43Come on.

1:13:51 > 1:13:53MRS WICKENS: Oh, my God!

1:13:57 > 1:13:59- No. - (Mr Wickens.)

1:14:01 > 1:14:03(Bundles of wood.)

1:14:03 > 1:14:05Lucy, the fire - he started it.

1:14:05 > 1:14:07Oh, no! Come on.

1:14:17 > 1:14:20Ha ha ha!

1:14:30 > 1:14:31We have to separate.

1:14:31 > 1:14:34I'll break down the nursery door.

1:14:34 > 1:14:35You warn Tom.

1:14:55 > 1:14:59Jamie's trying to break down the door.

1:14:59 > 1:15:01Don't! You mustn't! You'll fall.

1:15:01 > 1:15:03It isn't safe. You'll be killed.

1:15:03 > 1:15:06Miss Sara's a person I'd gladly die for.

1:15:06 > 1:15:09It will only make things worse.

1:20:12 > 1:20:16Look straight ahead and don't be afraid.

1:20:22 > 1:20:25I can't feel a thing. Nothing.

1:20:25 > 1:20:27Look...

1:20:27 > 1:20:29straight...

1:20:29 > 1:20:30ahead!

1:20:34 > 1:20:35Tom, where's Georgie?

1:20:37 > 1:20:39Sara?

1:20:43 > 1:20:44Sara?

1:20:48 > 1:20:50HE COUGHS

1:21:09 > 1:21:12'At last.

1:21:12 > 1:21:15'At last.

1:21:15 > 1:21:19'Thank you, my dears.'

1:21:22 > 1:21:24Jamie! Georgie!

1:21:24 > 1:21:27Mr Blunden, you promised to guard them. You promised!

1:21:29 > 1:21:30Jamie!

1:21:30 > 1:21:32Lucy!

1:21:33 > 1:21:35Georgie, Georgie.

1:21:35 > 1:21:37Oh, Georgie.

1:21:38 > 1:21:41- Oh, Georgie. - Sara? Sara?

1:21:41 > 1:21:43Georgie.

1:21:43 > 1:21:46Jamie. JAMIE!

1:21:46 > 1:21:49Jamie! Jamie!

1:21:49 > 1:21:50Jamie!

1:21:50 > 1:21:52Jamie, please. Jamie!

1:21:52 > 1:21:54SHE CRIES

1:21:56 > 1:21:59Please, Jamie, don't. Please don't!

1:21:59 > 1:22:01Jamie!

1:22:01 > 1:22:04Jamie.

1:22:04 > 1:22:05Jamie.

1:22:05 > 1:22:08Oh, you were too late, Mr Blunden.

1:22:08 > 1:22:10You were always too late!

1:22:10 > 1:22:13I won't go back without Jamie!

1:22:13 > 1:22:16I will not go without Jamie.

1:22:16 > 1:22:18I won't go without him.

1:22:18 > 1:22:21I won't go without him.

1:22:21 > 1:22:24I won't go without Jamie.

1:22:24 > 1:22:27Jamie?

1:22:27 > 1:22:29I won't go without Jamie.

1:22:29 > 1:22:30I won't go!

1:22:32 > 1:22:36I won't go without Jamie.

1:22:36 > 1:22:38I won't go without Jamie.

1:22:40 > 1:22:41...go back without Jamie.

1:22:41 > 1:22:44Jamie.

1:22:47 > 1:22:49Jamie?

1:22:50 > 1:22:52Jamie!

1:22:52 > 1:22:53Jamie!

1:22:55 > 1:22:57Jamie!

1:22:59 > 1:23:00Jamie!

1:23:00 > 1:23:02Jamie?

1:23:05 > 1:23:07Jamie!

1:23:07 > 1:23:10Jamie! Jamie?

1:23:10 > 1:23:12Oh!

1:23:12 > 1:23:14Jamie? Jamie!

1:23:14 > 1:23:16Jamie.

1:23:16 > 1:23:18Jamie!

1:23:18 > 1:23:19Jamie.

1:23:35 > 1:23:38Our father... which art in heaven...

1:23:38 > 1:23:39which art in heaven,

1:23:39 > 1:23:41hallowed be thy name.

1:23:41 > 1:23:42Thy kingdom come.

1:23:42 > 1:23:48Thy will be done on Earth, as it is in heaven.

1:23:48 > 1:23:49Give us this day...

1:23:49 > 1:23:51'I should have told them.

1:23:51 > 1:23:56'James isn't dying. He's just lost in time.

1:23:56 > 1:23:58'Gosh, I hope that's all.

1:23:58 > 1:24:00'Just because Mr Blunden wasn't there,

1:24:00 > 1:24:02'no-one will believe it.

1:24:02 > 1:24:06'God doesn't want James to die. That would be silly.

1:24:06 > 1:24:09'James is only lost in time, isn't he?'

1:24:09 > 1:24:12Amen.

1:24:12 > 1:24:13PRIEST: Almighty God, who,

1:24:13 > 1:24:16through thine only begotten son, Jesus Christ,

1:24:16 > 1:24:19hast overcome death and opened unto us

1:24:19 > 1:24:21the gate of everlasting life,

1:24:21 > 1:24:22we humbly beseech thee

1:24:22 > 1:24:25that as by thy special grace preventing us,

1:24:25 > 1:24:28thou dost put into our minds good desires.

1:24:28 > 1:24:30So, by they continual help,

1:24:30 > 1:24:33we may bring the same to good effect

1:24:33 > 1:24:35through Jesus Christ our lord.

1:24:35 > 1:24:38Suppose nothing has changed?

1:24:38 > 1:24:41How can anything have changed?

1:24:41 > 1:24:44Supposing Sara and Georgie's graves have gone?

1:24:44 > 1:24:47Oh, I can't be as silly as that.

1:24:47 > 1:24:50I can't really go wandering around

1:24:50 > 1:24:52expecting to find a yawning hole

1:24:52 > 1:24:55surrounded by a crowd of astonished villagers.

1:24:55 > 1:24:59Ooh!

1:24:59 > 1:25:04And yet, if it is all the same, what does it mean?

1:25:04 > 1:25:07Did we dream it?

1:25:07 > 1:25:08Where is James, then?

1:25:41 > 1:25:46"Frederick Percival Blunden...

1:25:46 > 1:25:52"gave his life to save the children in his care.

1:25:52 > 1:25:58"April 21st, 1818."

1:25:58 > 1:26:04Yesterday - 100 years ago.

1:26:04 > 1:26:08Oh, we did it.

1:26:08 > 1:26:11Jamie did it.

1:26:21 > 1:26:23MRS ALLEN: Lucy!

1:26:23 > 1:26:26Lucy! He's awake!

1:26:26 > 1:26:28Jamie's awake!

1:26:44 > 1:26:47He woke up, but I think he's confused.

1:26:47 > 1:26:52He said, "I got held up," as if he'd been away.

1:26:52 > 1:26:53Can I see him?

1:26:53 > 1:26:56Yes, of course you can, darling.

1:26:56 > 1:26:58Mummy, I do love you.

1:27:02 > 1:27:04Are you all right?

1:27:04 > 1:27:06Well, of course. Are you?

1:27:09 > 1:27:11- Where have you been, then? - Been?

1:27:11 > 1:27:15Yes, been, James. Where have you been?

1:27:15 > 1:27:17You know very well.

1:27:17 > 1:27:20Where have we been?

1:27:20 > 1:27:22You've remembered, then?

1:27:22 > 1:27:25Well, do you?

1:27:25 > 1:27:27Lucy, did we? Did we?

1:27:27 > 1:27:29Yes. I went to the churchyard,

1:27:29 > 1:27:31and the graves have gone.

1:27:31 > 1:27:34We did it! You did it.

1:27:34 > 1:27:36You helped... a bit.

1:27:55 > 1:27:56JAMIE: Clatterbuck.

1:27:56 > 1:27:59Trouble. Camden Town, here we come.

1:27:59 > 1:28:03It's OK I've had a letter, and it's private.

1:28:03 > 1:28:04Hmm. Secrets.

1:28:11 > 1:28:12Clatterbuck.

1:28:15 > 1:28:16Charmed, indeed.

1:28:16 > 1:28:18Have a good journey?

1:28:37 > 1:28:40It's all very well for you.

1:28:40 > 1:28:42You'll belong to someone again.

1:28:42 > 1:28:45And what about us?

1:28:45 > 1:28:47Where do we belong?

1:29:25 > 1:29:26Cheerio, swans.

1:29:26 > 1:29:27SPLASH

1:29:32 > 1:29:34Where have you been?

1:29:34 > 1:29:35Has he finished yet?

1:29:35 > 1:29:38In the attic? No, I don't think so.

1:29:40 > 1:29:42You know that blue vase?

1:29:42 > 1:29:43Yes.

1:29:43 > 1:29:45I nearly smashed it

1:29:45 > 1:29:47when you were trying to get the keys,

1:29:47 > 1:29:49and I couldn't do it.

1:29:49 > 1:29:53Strange to think it was here all this time.

1:29:53 > 1:29:57Probably here before Sara and Georgie.

1:29:57 > 1:29:58Probably be here

1:29:58 > 1:30:00long after we've left.

1:30:00 > 1:30:01Probably.

1:30:01 > 1:30:03Doesn't really seem fair.

1:30:03 > 1:30:05MRS ALLEN: James! Lucy!

1:30:05 > 1:30:07Come on.

1:30:12 > 1:30:13What does he want?

1:30:13 > 1:30:16I don't know. Looks pretty nervous, as usual.

1:30:16 > 1:30:19Mr Clatterbuck, you know James and Lucy.

1:30:19 > 1:30:21Hello again.

1:30:22 > 1:30:25Well? When do we go?

1:30:25 > 1:30:26Go?

1:30:26 > 1:30:27Yes, go.

1:30:27 > 1:30:29Back to Camden Town. When?

1:30:29 > 1:30:31We don't have to.

1:30:31 > 1:30:33Mr Blunden, for some unknown reason,

1:30:33 > 1:30:36raised himself from his bed of mental misery,

1:30:36 > 1:30:39hurled himself as best he could into the office,

1:30:39 > 1:30:41and said,

1:30:41 > 1:30:43"Get them papers

1:30:43 > 1:30:45"on Sara and Tom's marriage."

1:30:45 > 1:30:47I did as I was told,

1:30:47 > 1:30:49him being the governor,

1:30:49 > 1:30:51and here they are.

1:30:51 > 1:30:54We are related to these people.

1:30:54 > 1:30:57They were great-grandparents of daddy's.

1:30:57 > 1:31:00Just over 100 years ago, they lived here

1:31:00 > 1:31:02and then went to America.

1:31:02 > 1:31:04Not over 100 years ago,

1:31:04 > 1:31:06exactly 100 years ago.

1:31:06 > 1:31:09"New York, America, 1825.

1:31:09 > 1:31:11"Sara Latimer of Langley Park

1:31:11 > 1:31:13"married a Thomas Mortimer,

1:31:13 > 1:31:15"a gardener by trade."

1:31:15 > 1:31:16Very infra dig.

1:31:16 > 1:31:18Out of his class.

1:31:18 > 1:31:20He's come to tell us

1:31:20 > 1:31:23that we're the legal owners of the house.

1:31:23 > 1:31:25We can stay!

1:31:25 > 1:31:27Plus an allowance of £500 a year.

1:31:27 > 1:31:29In perpetuity.

1:31:29 > 1:31:31In what?

1:31:31 > 1:31:33For your lifetime, Sonny Jim.

1:31:33 > 1:31:36I won't go into all the legal logistics.

1:31:36 > 1:31:38You wouldn't understand.

1:31:38 > 1:31:40Step this way, if you please.

1:31:40 > 1:31:42All will be revealed.

1:31:46 > 1:31:49Sara. Tom!

1:31:49 > 1:31:51I know.

1:31:51 > 1:31:54Great-grandma Sara.

1:31:54 > 1:31:56Great-grandpa Tom.

1:32:06 > 1:32:08LUCY: Mr Blunden!

1:32:08 > 1:32:12Mr Blunden. Mr Blunden.

1:32:12 > 1:32:15Which one? Which one?

1:32:15 > 1:32:19We three kings of Orient are, my dears.

1:32:23 > 1:32:26Hooray! It's ours!

1:32:26 > 1:32:28It's ours, Benjy.

1:32:28 > 1:32:29It's really ours.

1:32:29 > 1:32:31Oh!

1:32:31 > 1:32:32JAMIE: It's ours!

1:32:48 > 1:32:50Oh!

1:32:50 > 1:32:51Goodbye.

1:32:53 > 1:32:55Benjy, say goodbye.

1:32:55 > 1:32:56Go on.
