0:00:52 > 0:00:55Ursula! >
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Ursula!
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Ursula, come back 'ere!
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Ursula!
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Ursula!
0:01:06 > 0:01:12Come back 'ere! It's dangerous!
0:01:09 > 0:01:12LAUGHS
0:01:10 > 0:01:12Ursula! Wait for me! >
0:01:17 > 0:01:21Who didn't come, then?! Was it you, Miss Puddleduck?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Were you off for a swim?
0:01:23 > 0:01:24No.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30What is it, me lady?
0:01:28 > 0:01:30I want that, Daddy.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Can't have it, it's not for catching
0:01:33 > 0:01:40Want it!
0:01:34 > 0:01:40It's too far off, lass. If you're a good girl I'll make you one for tea.
0:01:47 > 0:01:54They were naughty to fight. Losing their feathers. They'll be sorry when it's cold.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58I just saved this one from the river
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Off you get.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Perhaps we'll have that gate fixed.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07You left the door open!
0:02:07 > 0:02:11What if I did?! The baker came and the baby woke up.
0:02:11 > 0:02:18Why do you niggle me?! I don't just sit around designing lace hankies.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Soup again? You spoil me.
0:02:18 > 0:02:25Oh, is our little blackbird tuning up? Sing up, lad, and drown your mother out.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29You put such pressure in my head.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Oh, get off!
0:02:29 > 0:02:34# When the pie was opened The birds began to sing
0:02:34 > 0:02:37# Wasn't that a dainty dish... #
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Still there, Daddy. Can't I have it?
0:03:04 > 0:03:08You're a persistent little madam. I'd not forgotten.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11There you are. On you jump.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14There we go. What about that, then?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Want a taste?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Uh-uh.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21A little taste. Just a little one. No?
0:03:21 > 0:03:26Uh.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Oh, I see. You want the real one.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Well, you can't have it, my lass.
0:05:05 > 0:05:13"And again, I say unto you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of the needle... >
0:05:13 > 0:05:18..than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." >
0:05:18 > 0:05:21The collection is for Mrs Hartley...
0:05:21 > 0:05:27..widowed by the Grange Pit tragedy. I know you will give generously.
0:05:27 > 0:05:32On a happier note, there will be a resumption of christenings.
0:05:32 > 0:05:38Thanks to the restoration of the font by our organist - Will Brangwen.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46PLAYS ORGAN
0:06:07 > 0:06:09He's like my dolly.
0:06:09 > 0:06:15This church takes up too much time, but it's a fine hand you've carved.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19It's an ogre's hand.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19It's the hand of God, Billy.
0:06:19 > 0:06:23Assisting at the birth of Eve.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23He's not a midwife!
0:06:23 > 0:06:26It was my hand you used as a model.
0:06:26 > 0:06:33That's not so, it's after Donatello's "Frances".
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Perhaps that's how it started.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Oh, never!
0:06:37 > 0:06:45For all you know, Donatello may have used his wife as a model.
0:06:40 > 0:06:45Don't be ridiculous. The hand of God is a man's hand.
0:06:45 > 0:06:52Like taking Eve out of Adam's body, when man is born of woman? The impudence of men!
0:06:52 > 0:06:58Oh, Mother, don't fuss so!
0:06:54 > 0:06:58I have said, Ursula, do not speak to me like that.
0:06:58 > 0:07:03How could a great big camel pass through an eye of a needle?
0:07:03 > 0:07:06With great difficulty, I'd think.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00RUNNING FOOTSTEPS
0:08:04 > 0:08:08It's locked. Open the door, Ursula. >
0:08:09 > 0:08:12She won't answer, she's dead. >
0:08:12 > 0:08:16Go away. I'm not dead. What do you want?
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Mother says you have to come down to dinner. >
0:08:20 > 0:08:25There's a soldier downstairs with Uncle Henry. >
0:08:25 > 0:08:28DOOR HANDLE RATTLES
0:08:30 > 0:08:37You're not fibbing, are you?! Cos I'll pull your hair out. Even if it is Sunday.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45< I always used to ask strangers to stay.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48It was rather trying for my parents.
0:08:48 > 0:08:55It's our Lazarus. And Billy said you were dead.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Might as well be sometimes.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55LAUGHTER
0:08:56 > 0:09:05I wanted some peace. I didn't realise you were coming.
0:09:00 > 0:09:05Or she'd have had a sherry.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Likes a tipple, does she? >
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Give your Uncle Henry a kiss.
0:09:08 > 0:09:13Drink the health of my friend - Lt Anton Skrebensky.
0:09:13 > 0:09:18He's staying at the hall. His father was the parish priest.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Are you staying long?
0:09:19 > 0:09:21This is my last day.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23I have to report back tomorrow.
0:09:23 > 0:09:29To what do you report?
0:09:24 > 0:09:29I'm in the Engineers. And you? I suppose you're at school.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34My last term. I'm taking my matriculation exams soon.
0:09:34 > 0:09:41You'll be going out to work?
0:09:36 > 0:09:41Don't put ideas in her head. My daughters don't need to work.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44I'm considering my field of action.
0:09:44 > 0:09:50There's stockings need mending. They could be your field of action.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56What would you like to be?
0:09:53 > 0:09:56I don't know. A teacher, perhaps.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02I could never study. The brains of the Army are in the Engineers.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05I joined to get the credit of other people's brains.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Brains don't matter.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10What does matter, then?
0:10:10 > 0:10:14Whether people have courage or not.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Courage for what?
0:10:14 > 0:10:20For everything.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Like a soldier, you mean?
0:10:20 > 0:10:24That's another field of action you wouldn't like.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27She should join the Royal Engineers.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30No need for courage to build a privvy.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Are you not lonely, being an orphan?
0:10:47 > 0:10:52I have got a guardian. And Henry. And my aunts.
0:10:53 > 0:10:58I'm really fond of them all. But my real home is the Army.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Do you like being on your own?
0:11:02 > 0:11:05I think so.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07I went to school early.
0:11:07 > 0:11:14The outside world was more of a home to me than the vicarage.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14This house used to be a vicarage.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Really?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Do you not feel like...
0:11:21 > 0:11:26..like a bird, flown out of its own latitude?
0:11:24 > 0:11:26CHUCKLES
0:11:27 > 0:11:30I find things much as I like them.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36You look very lazy.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36I am lazy.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40You look really floppy.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40I am floppy.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Can't you stop?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43I don't want to stop.
0:11:43 > 0:11:49It looks like there isn't a bone in your body.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49That's how I like to feel.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52I don't admire your taste.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54That's my misfortune.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Damn it! Why can't I rock?!
0:11:58 > 0:12:04Men don't rock themselves.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04Girls don't pull men's hair.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04You've seen that they do.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13My father used to rock me on the swingboats.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Would you like to go on one again?
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Oh, I didn't mean...
0:12:17 > 0:12:20When?
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Now! >
0:12:20 > 0:12:24You arrange it with mother while I change.
0:12:46 > 0:12:53Our families go a long way back.
0:12:48 > 0:12:53My grandmother told me stories of her life in Poland.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57She knew your father in Warsaw.
0:12:57 > 0:13:03She married his friend, Dr Lensky, just before the uprising. They fought together.
0:13:03 > 0:13:10Dr Lensky and Baron Skrebensky. Don't you find Polish names extremely musical?
0:13:10 > 0:13:16They're a musical nation. And very patriotic. They make poor exiles.
0:13:16 > 0:13:21They all die young, humming Chopin's "Funeral March".
0:13:21 > 0:13:27You Lenskys seem to be an exception.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27They say Granddad died with a stethoscope on.
0:13:27 > 0:13:34He had connections with the medical profession and had a practice in Beldover. That's where Mum was born.
0:13:34 > 0:13:39I've always thought it romantic to have Polish blood.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43More than British? Is your father not romantic?
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Of course, or he wouldn't have swept Mum off her feet.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51They were married in that church. Shall we go in?
0:13:51 > 0:13:56Oh, dear. I thought I'd escaped church parade today.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Come along.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20 Beg pardon, sir, didn't hear you.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20This is dreadful.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Dreadful and wonderful.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Then let's stay a minute.
0:14:41 > 0:14:50You loved flying high, didn't you?
0:14:44 > 0:14:50Better than being earthbound. You'd think so if you lived in our house.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59This reminds me of Ingram from my platoon.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Why's that?
0:14:59 > 0:15:05He had a girl in Rochester. They'd make love in the cathedral.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05How nice.
0:15:05 > 0:15:11Ended badly. The verger caught them, got their names, made a row about it
0:15:11 > 0:15:17What a shame. He shouldn't have objected.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17He said it was a profanity.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19No, I think it's right.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24To make love in the house of God.
0:15:41 > 0:15:46I promised your mother I'd have you home early, you've school tomorrow.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Come along, I'll buy you a lolly.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Push and glide! Push and glide!
0:16:06 > 0:16:11Ethel, as the arms complete their stroke, bend the legs back.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Don't let your feet break water.
0:16:14 > 0:16:19Push and glide! Heads steady. All right.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19WHISTLE
0:16:23 > 0:16:26WHISTLE
0:16:40 > 0:16:43Come on, I'll race you.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09I've won. But you've good form. What's your name?
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Ursula, Miss Inger. Ursula Brangwen.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Right, Ursula Brangwen.
0:17:20 > 0:17:25Class dismissed. No lingering in the cubicles - Class Three are due.
0:17:27 > 0:17:34Do you think it's wicked to let a man kiss you - a man you've just met?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I should think. It depends.
0:17:34 > 0:17:40Real kisses, I mean. Not just flirting. He's a soldier.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Where did he kiss you?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45In church.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48I see. And what time was it?
0:17:48 > 0:17:52Erm. About a quarter to seven.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Oh, yes, I think it'd be very wrong.
0:17:57 > 0:18:03What do you think of the new athletics mistress?
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Not a lot. She was rough with me.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Ursula. Ursula.
0:18:17 > 0:18:22I enjoyed our race, did you?
0:18:19 > 0:18:22Erm, yes. Yes, I did.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Tell me, have you a bicycle?
0:18:25 > 0:18:27No. Er, yes.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29My sister does, we share it.
0:18:30 > 0:18:38Would you like to come for a swim on Saturday? I've a cottage on the river, you could stay for tea.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Thank you. Yes, I'd like that.
0:18:45 > 0:18:50Come along, Class Three. Come on, girls. Come along.
0:18:50 > 0:18:55Into the water. You'll be swimming like dolphins in no time.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05NO, YOU CAN'T! I NEED IT! LISTEN TO ME!
0:19:05 > 0:19:08STOP, WILL YA?! I SAID NO!
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Stop! Oh, I hate you.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Mmm! Such peace.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35Be more comfortable with your boots off. Here.
0:19:35 > 0:19:40How do you spend your weekends?
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Helping Mother. Going to church.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Church is peaceful.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44GIGGLES
0:19:42 > 0:19:44< Why do you laugh?
0:19:44 > 0:19:47The last time it was anything but!
0:19:47 > 0:19:50I was with a friend looking for seclusion.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Choir practice?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Restoration.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01Do you think it's blasphemous to make love in church?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04No. Merely uncomfortable.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07Such narrow pews.
0:20:08 > 0:20:13Or did you do it standing up in a confessional?
0:20:10 > 0:20:13We were only kissing.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17Oh, I thought you meant fucking. Who was he?
0:20:17 > 0:20:19A soldier.
0:20:22 > 0:20:27What's the matter?
0:20:23 > 0:20:27My father was a soldier. Coarse brute.
0:20:27 > 0:20:32Treated my mother little better than a whore.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32How do you mean?
0:20:32 > 0:20:37As a person in her own right my mother did not exist.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41She was an instrument for his perverted sexuality.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Was there no love?
0:20:44 > 0:20:48The best you'll ever get from a man is passion.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51Even that can't last.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55I think we're in for a storm - the milk's turned.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Perhaps I should be off.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01Don't say that, not before our swim.
0:21:01 > 0:21:07In the rush I forgot my costume. Besides, it looks like rain.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11In the water what do raindrops matter?
0:21:11 > 0:21:14Besides, it's best in the rain.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17It's safe, the grounds are private.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21We'll undress inside and run down. It's all right.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27DISTANT THUNDER
0:21:50 > 0:21:52BOTH LAUGH
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Come on.
0:22:34 > 0:22:40You're tickling me!
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Relax! You're in the hands of a qualified osteopath.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44That's lovely.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51I think you better go soon, it's getting late.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Can I not stay with you?
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Your parents wouldn't approve.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57When will we see each other again?
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Monday, silly.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Swimming class.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02I meant like this.
0:23:04 > 0:23:10I was thinking of taking a school party to the Lakes next weekend. Want to come?
0:23:10 > 0:23:13I'm not that fond of hiking.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15I wouldn't bother, then.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19I meant a party of one.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21I love hiking!
0:23:26 > 0:23:31Your mother'll think you've been kidnapped. Come along.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37You heard me. I need it to get the groceries.
0:23:37 > 0:23:42I had to carry them home. What have you got to say?
0:23:46 > 0:23:50Damn the groceries! I'm sick of being told what to do.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55- ALL: - # We're bading in the sea, Mother
0:23:55 > 0:23:57# We're bading in the sea, Mother... #
0:24:00 > 0:24:04And I am standing here with your nightshirt.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08# We're bading in the sea, Mother... #
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Come on, Rupert, get up now.
0:24:10 > 0:24:16Will somebody love me, Mother?
0:24:12 > 0:24:16We say "bathing", not bading. We all love you.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19But will somebody love me ?
0:24:19 > 0:24:23Some man will love you, because that's your nature.
0:24:23 > 0:24:31I hope he loves you for what you are, not what he wants of you.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31What did you want for yourself?
0:24:31 > 0:24:34What I've got.
0:24:36 > 0:24:41Billy, where is your nightshirt?
0:24:38 > 0:24:41I don't know.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Then look for it!
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Marie pulled my hair.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Oh, you two, get along.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47We have a right to what we want.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Now then! What you up to?
0:24:49 > 0:24:54Nothing.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54Yes you are, you wicked lad. Up you get, plenty of room.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Why aren't they in bed?!
0:24:56 > 0:24:58The children must live.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02But I must live, too.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02We all live together, lass.
0:25:03 > 0:25:08My teacher's taking a party to the Lakes next weekend.
0:25:09 > 0:25:15You're Uncle Henry's invited us to the hall on Saturday.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Anton'll be there.
0:25:18 > 0:25:23I think not. I really must go with my school.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Your mother's right.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36Men have fixed ideas of what a woman should be.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40Any woman who fits their definition, they say they love her.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43They're only in love with themselves.
0:25:43 > 0:25:48Like a serpent who swallows his tail when he's hungry.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52But women - they have fixed ideas, too.
0:25:53 > 0:25:58Can you see it? Can you make out what it is?
0:25:59 > 0:26:03No.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Can't you?
0:26:03 > 0:26:08Up there, on the summit. The lion lays down with the lamb.
0:26:08 > 0:26:13Can you see it now?
0:26:10 > 0:26:13Yes! It's good, isn't it?
0:26:13 > 0:26:18Can we get up there?
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Let's have a drink before we tackle it.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27Wave to the ladies.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Hello!
0:26:29 > 0:26:31How I love lions.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33God is like a lion to me.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37Not like those silly toy lambs in church.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Lambs or lions.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Buddha or Apollo. Christ or Zeus.
0:26:42 > 0:26:48They're only symbols of man's instinctual desires - illusions.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Who do you worship?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54I worship this.
0:26:55 > 0:27:00GROWLS: I would like to be proud and strong like a lion.
0:27:00 > 0:27:05Not weak like a lamb, who only exists to be loved and sacrificed.
0:27:06 > 0:27:10To love and be loved are equally important.
0:27:10 > 0:27:16When the lion lays down with the lamb in you, you'll know peace.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18EXPLOSION
0:27:20 > 0:27:23We're workin' the mine! Be off with you!
0:27:23 > 0:27:31Didn't you read the sign, woman! >
0:27:26 > 0:27:31You are a monster. How dare you come here with your filthy mind?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33EXPLOSION
0:27:33 > 0:27:36Come on, Ursula!
0:27:40 > 0:27:45Man is terrible. The works of man are more terrible still.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50The mines are the most terrible of his works.
0:27:50 > 0:27:55My Uncle Henry owns several of the Grange pits.
0:27:55 > 0:28:00Really? Remember the painting at the cottage? It's Mack.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04I sometimes model for the old rascal.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Mack! >
0:28:07 > 0:28:11< We saw it so clearly from below. Where is it?
0:28:11 > 0:28:19< Where d'ya think? Use your eyes.
0:28:13 > 0:28:19If you're looking for a public convenience it's behind a rock.
0:28:19 > 0:28:24I'm looking for the lion and the lamb
0:28:21 > 0:28:24It's behind you, silly.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29It's an illusion - the lion laying down with the lamb.
0:28:29 > 0:28:35You're the third person today to say that. Must be true.
0:28:35 > 0:28:40Distance lends enchantment. This is Ursula, one of our favourite sorts.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Is she now?
0:28:43 > 0:28:47Do you always meet casually on mountains?
0:28:47 > 0:28:55More often in the studio. Do you think she'd pose for me, Fred?
0:28:52 > 0:28:55Would you like to, Ursula?
0:28:55 > 0:28:59I don't know, I'm a bit of a fidget. When?
0:28:59 > 0:29:05There'll be some pocket money in it for you. How's next Saturday?
0:29:06 > 0:29:10I'll come along, if you like.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10No, it's all right.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13I'm not a child.
0:29:18 > 0:29:23I shall call it, "Experience Rewarding Innocence".
0:29:24 > 0:29:29I generally choose titles with cynicism, but this is an exception.
0:29:29 > 0:29:34I'd almost given up hope of finding purity in a girl your age.
0:29:35 > 0:29:41Would you like me to smile?
0:29:37 > 0:29:41It's not your face I'm painting at the moment.
0:29:41 > 0:29:47You're a good girl, Ursula, are you not?
0:29:44 > 0:29:47My parents don't always think so.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Parents seldom do.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Do they smack your bottom?
0:29:52 > 0:29:59Not any more.
0:29:54 > 0:29:59Domestic bliss is a pleasure I've been denied.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02I'm childless and wifeless.
0:30:03 > 0:30:07I have to rely on others for my creature comforts.
0:30:07 > 0:30:11Free spirits, untamed by convention.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Jolly good sports, like Fred.
0:30:16 > 0:30:20I feel you are such a kindred spirit, Ursula.
0:30:20 > 0:30:25< You have the power to make me the happiest of men.
0:30:25 > 0:30:30At first the idea of my chastising you may seem abhorrent.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33That is merely through association.
0:30:33 > 0:30:37When you see the delight it affords me...
0:30:37 > 0:30:42..you'll see it, not as a violation, but an act of love.
0:30:43 > 0:30:48I'll awaken in you a world of sensuality.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51You'll not find my gratitude ungenerous.
0:30:51 > 0:30:57The pain is nothing, passes in a moment. And the marks soon fade.
0:30:59 > 0:31:05But should I draw blood you'll feel the salt of my tears in your wounds.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11I believe you mentioned a fee.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15Get out!
0:31:15 > 0:31:20< How dare you lead me on, you money-grabbing bitch?!
0:31:20 > 0:31:23You disgusting little trollop!
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Get out!
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Ha!
0:31:37 > 0:31:39Halt!
0:31:44 > 0:31:50Quite commendable. You have the skill, but you lack the desire to win.
0:31:53 > 0:31:55Yes, miss. Thank you.
0:31:56 > 0:32:00And desire, girls, is the source of all truth and good.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Class dismissed.
0:32:04 > 0:32:10There'll be no instruction next week owing to exams, so good luck.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10- ALL: - Thank you, miss.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14So, you got picked on today.
0:32:17 > 0:32:22Ursula, I'm sorry about Mack. I should have thought it through.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25It was...
0:32:22 > 0:32:25An act of love, perhaps.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27In a way.
0:32:27 > 0:32:32There are things one should understand about life, even artists.
0:32:33 > 0:32:39It's best to be prepared.
0:32:34 > 0:32:39Who prepared me for that?
0:32:36 > 0:32:39Experience is the best teacher.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44I was half expecting you last weekend.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48I was studying.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52What are you doing in the holidays?
0:32:52 > 0:32:58Uncle Henry's invited me to Grange Hall. I said I'd bring you.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01You will come, won't you?
0:33:14 > 0:33:17HORN
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Out the way!
0:33:17 > 0:33:26Nearly late for his own funeral.
0:33:20 > 0:33:26Has there been a death in the family?
0:33:22 > 0:33:26No, miss, it were only a miner.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26A miner?
0:33:26 > 0:33:28He leaves a wife and two bairns.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31Was it an accident?
0:33:30 > 0:33:31Consumption.
0:33:31 > 0:33:36It gets them sooner or later. He died gradually - fretful.
0:33:36 > 0:33:42My father went the same. It's a relief when it's over.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Gruesome.
0:33:42 > 0:33:46And the widow?
0:33:43 > 0:33:46She'll be getting married again directly.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49< Her two sisters have just changed husbands.
0:33:49 > 0:33:56Is Uncle Henry going to the funeral?
0:33:52 > 0:33:56No, miss, but he'll send biggest wreath.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Ah! There you are!
0:34:12 > 0:34:18About time, too. You missed Anton, I'm afraid. He was disappointed.
0:34:20 > 0:34:25Never mind. I'm pleased your friend could manage it.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27Hello.
0:34:27 > 0:34:33I'm Henry Brangwen.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33Hello.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33Welcome to Grange Hall.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Thank you.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35I'm so glad that...
0:34:35 > 0:34:38I'm sorry. You're upset?
0:34:37 > 0:34:38No.
0:34:38 > 0:34:44She saw your wreath and burst into tears at the thought of that miner.
0:34:44 > 0:34:50I did no such thing, I've a smut in my eye.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50From one of your filthy pit chimneys.
0:34:50 > 0:34:55Let me see. Williams should have had the top down, he's bone idle.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57Just look up.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03There!
0:35:13 > 0:35:15Souvenir.
0:35:30 > 0:35:37Why are the men so sad?
0:35:32 > 0:35:37Are they?
0:35:34 > 0:35:37They seem unutterably sad.
0:35:37 > 0:35:44I wouldn't go as far as that.
0:35:39 > 0:35:44They just take it all for granted. They accept their lot.
0:35:49 > 0:35:54Why don't they alter it?
0:35:51 > 0:35:54They alter themselves to fit the pits...
0:35:54 > 0:35:59..rather than alter the pits to fit themselves.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59It's easier.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02You, of all people, agree...
0:36:02 > 0:36:07..that human beings should adapt themselves to all kinds of horrors?!
0:36:07 > 0:36:11We could easily do without the pits.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13Until the wood ran out.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16Perhaps their lives aren't so bad.
0:36:16 > 0:36:21They are pretty bad. The pits are deep and hot, and in some places wet.
0:36:22 > 0:36:27But they're paid good wages. They're sold to the pit.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31And the women?
0:36:33 > 0:36:35What do they get?
0:36:35 > 0:36:38They get what's left.
0:36:39 > 0:36:41BIRDSONG
0:36:48 > 0:36:53How delightful to hear birds singing at night.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53COUGHS
0:36:54 > 0:36:56You will excuse me.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58Good night!
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Oh dear! What have I done now?
0:37:10 > 0:37:13It's the canaries I breed for the pits.
0:37:13 > 0:37:17The men take them down when they go to work.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17How lovely.
0:37:17 > 0:37:24When they stop singing, there's gas. One whiff and they're dead. The men have a minute.
0:37:24 > 0:37:29Oh.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29Ursula doesn't approve. They've saved many lives.
0:37:29 > 0:37:35I get the impression that Ursula doesn't approve of you at all.
0:37:35 > 0:37:42She loathes the fact that my pits support her family.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Perhaps I should go to her.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45As you wish. I was about to retire myself.
0:37:45 > 0:37:52Must be tiring working the pit.
0:37:47 > 0:37:52The pits work themselves. It's my ankle - a strained tendon.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55My doctor prescribes mustard baths.
0:37:55 > 0:38:03Very anti-social.
0:37:57 > 0:38:03I've heard of them prescribed for rheumatism, but not strains.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Really?
0:38:03 > 0:38:11I'm a qualified osteopath.
0:38:05 > 0:38:11Are you, now?
0:38:07 > 0:38:11Would you like me to look at it?
0:38:11 > 0:38:14Where?
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Anywhere.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Here, if you like.
0:38:20 > 0:38:23I don't know, they...
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Are your servants.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28They are rather limiting types.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32Should they see my foot in your hand, they may...
0:38:32 > 0:38:35May think I had a fetish.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Aye, they might.
0:38:53 > 0:38:58It feels so strange - as if a kitten had swallowed a snake.
0:38:58 > 0:39:04Give him to Jacobs before he has one of your fingers. >
0:39:01 > 0:39:04What's the object of this caper?
0:39:04 > 0:39:12Tell her, Jacobs.
0:39:05 > 0:39:12Aye, sir. To save our prize lettuce from the rabbits.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12They make such lovely pets - lettuce.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Ursula, do grow up.
0:39:18 > 0:39:25Well, there's another prize lettuce - saved.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25Right. You shall have it for lunch.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29I can see how this game amuses you.
0:39:29 > 0:39:36It's like your pit, this warren. Your men haven't got a hope.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36They certainly breed like them.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45Catch them in a net, or they perish in the dark.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48Either way they're doomed.
0:39:58 > 0:40:03Ursula lacks the courage of her convictions.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03LAUGHS
0:41:01 > 0:41:04Do you want to help me?
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Yes, Daddy.
0:41:04 > 0:41:08Help plant some taties if you like.
0:41:11 > 0:41:18See these? >
0:41:12 > 0:41:18Hmm.
0:41:13 > 0:41:18These are the sprouts. They have to stand straight.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22We've to put them so far apart, do you see?
0:41:22 > 0:41:27You stay here, I'll go down there and we'll meet in the middle.
0:41:56 > 0:42:00What are you doing?! You're tramping on them!
0:42:00 > 0:42:04That's like you - following your stupid nose.
0:42:56 > 0:42:59Ursula, dearest, what have I done?
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Nothing.
0:43:01 > 0:43:05Is it because of your Uncle Henry and me?
0:43:02 > 0:43:05No... I'm glad.
0:43:08 > 0:43:12He's invited me to stay on after you've gone.
0:43:12 > 0:43:16But if you'd rather you and I went off somewhere...
0:43:16 > 0:43:20No, I have to go home. I'm expecting my examination results.
0:43:23 > 0:43:26You've nothing to worry about there.
0:43:26 > 0:43:33You are fond of him, aren't you?
0:43:28 > 0:43:33I've been fond of him ever since I was a child.
0:43:33 > 0:43:39He's a man by himself. He has something apart from the rest.
0:43:39 > 0:43:42Yes, I thought you'd get on.
0:43:42 > 0:43:44I know you did.
0:43:45 > 0:43:48"Love seeketh not itself to please."
0:43:48 > 0:43:50But... Henry!
0:43:50 > 0:43:52Why not Henry?
0:43:52 > 0:43:55I'd like to destroy his colliery.
0:43:55 > 0:44:02And put everyone out of work?
0:43:57 > 0:44:02I'd rather they starve and grub the earth for roots.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05And what about us poor women? Huh?
0:44:15 > 0:44:17Yes, I'll stay.
0:44:17 > 0:44:19It'll be best.
0:44:24 > 0:44:27Now, tell me you love me.
0:44:28 > 0:44:29SIGHS: Yes.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41DAD!
0:44:43 > 0:44:45DAD!
0:44:46 > 0:44:52Dad, guess what!
0:44:48 > 0:44:52Has Billy had too much birthday cake and disgraced himself?
0:44:52 > 0:44:54Oh, Dad, please!
0:44:54 > 0:45:00Does he like his tent?
0:44:56 > 0:45:00Can't get him out of it. Dad, I passed my exams!
0:45:00 > 0:45:03Hey! Well done, lass.
0:45:03 > 0:45:07It came second post with a letter from my headmistress about a job.
0:45:07 > 0:45:11A job?
0:45:08 > 0:45:11Can't I go out to work?
0:45:11 > 0:45:15Whatever for? You've enough to do helping your mother.
0:45:15 > 0:45:20But I want some other kind of life!
0:45:17 > 0:45:20What on earth do you mean by that?
0:45:20 > 0:45:24- We'll discuss it after us tea. - IMITATES FANFARE
0:45:25 > 0:45:27# Happy birthday to you
0:45:27 > 0:45:32# Happy birthday, dear Billy, Happy birthday... #

0:45:42 > 0:45:45Here, come here!
0:45:45 > 0:45:50What's the matter? Billy, what have you done to Rupert?
0:45:50 > 0:45:53Mother, do something with him.
0:45:53 > 0:45:56Come here, let me show you...
0:46:00 > 0:46:06Your turn next, Ursula. What would you like?
0:46:03 > 0:46:06Get her a bicycle, Dad, please.
0:46:06 > 0:46:11To be free to earn my own keep. That's what I'd like best.
0:46:11 > 0:46:13How will you do that?
0:46:13 > 0:46:17I can become a teacher. I'm qualified by my matric.
0:46:17 > 0:46:19Aye.
0:46:20 > 0:46:24How much are you qualified to earn by your matric?
0:46:24 > 0:46:28£50 a year. It's not much, but it's enough to live on.
0:46:34 > 0:46:37What kind of teacher will you make?
0:46:37 > 0:46:41You've no patience with your own brothers and sisters.
0:46:41 > 0:46:47Some people don't think so.
0:46:43 > 0:46:47Oh?
0:46:44 > 0:46:47My headmistress, for one.
0:46:47 > 0:46:52"I deeply sympathise with your desire to do something."
0:46:52 > 0:46:56< "I shall be proud to see you win economic independence."
0:46:57 > 0:47:00"It provides freedom of choice."
0:47:00 > 0:47:03You did it behind our backs!
0:47:02 > 0:47:03What do you mean?
0:47:03 > 0:47:09School-leavers always have an interview with the headmistress.
0:47:12 > 0:47:17"I see no reason why you shouldn't make a good teacher."
0:47:17 > 0:47:22"After a year as an uncertified instructor, you could take a degree."
0:47:22 > 0:47:26"That would give you the self-respect nothing else can."
0:47:26 > 0:47:29She even sent an application form.
0:47:33 > 0:47:36What's this about Kingston?
0:47:36 > 0:47:43It's her old school. They've a vacancy. I can apply for an interview and have you sign it.
0:47:43 > 0:47:48There's no way you're dancing off to London.
0:47:45 > 0:47:48It's a good place to go.
0:47:48 > 0:47:52How do you know?!
0:47:49 > 0:47:52It's on the Thames, it's lovely.
0:47:52 > 0:47:58You said, Mother, we have a right to what we want.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58It's up to your father.
0:47:58 > 0:48:03Why not get a post near here?
0:48:00 > 0:48:03Something in town.
0:48:01 > 0:48:03That slum!
0:48:04 > 0:48:09I'd rather go right away. I'm fed up with housework.
0:48:09 > 0:48:13Indeed?! You have too much opinion of yourself.
0:48:13 > 0:48:17There's a place for me and I want to go.
0:48:17 > 0:48:21You're not going.
0:48:18 > 0:48:21Why not?!
0:48:19 > 0:48:21That's why not!
0:48:29 > 0:48:35London's full of troops off to South Africa - no place for a girl.
0:48:35 > 0:48:40We'll see the local authorities about a place here.
0:48:40 > 0:48:46You can put me off, but one day I'll get a place and I won't stop at home.
0:48:46 > 0:48:49NOBODY WANTS YOU TO STOP AT HOME!
0:48:53 > 0:48:58# Il etait une bergere Et ron et ron petit patapon #

0:49:37 > 0:49:39Come in.
0:49:45 > 0:49:48Isn't it a nasty morning?
0:49:48 > 0:49:51Yes, not much of weather.
0:49:52 > 0:49:54Am I early?
0:49:55 > 0:50:00Twenty-five past - you're second to come. I'm first this morning.
0:50:05 > 0:50:07Must you do so many?
0:50:07 > 0:50:09COUGHS
0:50:10 > 0:50:12Fifty-six.
0:50:12 > 0:50:17But they're not all for your class.
0:50:15 > 0:50:17Why aren't they?
0:50:16 > 0:50:17It's too many.
0:50:17 > 0:50:21- CHUCKLES: - You've got about the same.
0:50:21 > 0:50:23FOOTSTEPS
0:50:23 > 0:50:27That'll be Miss Hardy, Headmaster's assistant.
0:50:30 > 0:50:32Oh! You are early.
0:50:33 > 0:50:37I'll warrant you don't keep that up.
0:50:39 > 0:50:42That...is Mr Harvey's peg.
0:50:45 > 0:50:47This...is yours.
0:50:49 > 0:50:52Aren't you taking your hat off?
0:50:52 > 0:50:55Standard Five teacher always has that one.
0:51:07 > 0:51:12Isn't it a beastly morning?
0:51:09 > 0:51:12POKES FIRE VIOLENTLY
0:51:10 > 0:51:12Beastly!
0:51:12 > 0:51:17If there's one thing I hate it's a wet Monday morning...
0:51:17 > 0:51:20..kids trailing in anyhow.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22This...belongs over there.
0:51:25 > 0:51:28You've brought your apron, haven't you?
0:51:29 > 0:51:35You've no idea what a sight you'll look before half past four.
0:51:35 > 0:51:40Jim Richards! What are you doing, peering in? Come here!
0:51:42 > 0:51:47I want you to go and askmyma for a pinny for Miss Brangwen.
0:51:47 > 0:51:49Yes, miss.
0:51:49 > 0:51:55What are you going for? And what shall you say to my ma?
0:51:53 > 0:51:55School pinny, miss.
0:51:55 > 0:52:03"Please, Mrs Harby, Miss Harby says to send down another pinafore for Miss Brangwen...
0:52:03 > 0:52:10..because she's come without one."
0:52:06 > 0:52:10Yes, miss.
0:52:07 > 0:52:10< What are you going to say?!
0:52:10 > 0:52:14Miss Harby wants a pinny for Miss Brangwin.
0:52:14 > 0:52:17Miss BrangWEN. Be quick about it.
0:52:17 > 0:52:22He's a caution, that boy - but not bad. Follow me!
0:52:30 > 0:52:36Here we are. Standards Three, Four, Five and Six.
0:52:37 > 0:52:41This is your place - Standard Five.
0:52:41 > 0:52:46- TUTS: - Mr Harvey will be teaching through there.
0:52:47 > 0:52:50He'll be keeping an eye on you.
0:52:51 > 0:52:56If you can find your way back to the teachers' room he'll be there.
0:53:06 > 0:53:11You had a wet walk.
0:53:08 > 0:53:11I don't mind. I'm used to it.
0:53:23 > 0:53:26You will sign your name here.
0:53:28 > 0:53:31And the time when you come and go.
0:53:31 > 0:53:34CHILDREN PLAY OUTSIDE
0:53:34 > 0:53:39Miss Brangwen, there are some exercise books on the top shelf.
0:53:39 > 0:53:41Get them, would you ?
0:53:57 > 0:53:59I'm so sorry.
0:54:13 > 0:54:15CLEARS THROAT >
0:54:15 > 0:54:18I'd let them in now.
0:54:19 > 0:54:24Miss Brangwen, you will go to the lobby with Mr Brunt.
0:54:26 > 0:54:28Door!
0:54:34 > 0:54:36Sharp! Sharp!
0:54:36 > 0:54:38Wake up! Wake up!
0:54:39 > 0:54:41QUIET DOWN! QUIET!
0:54:41 > 0:54:46In line!
0:54:43 > 0:54:46WHAT DID I SAY?! QUIET!
0:54:47 > 0:54:52Leaders in place! Standards Four, Five and Six...
0:54:54 > 0:54:56..FALL IN!
0:55:00 > 0:55:03PIANO PLAYS MARCHING TUNE
0:55:09 > 0:55:12Class Five, quick march.
0:55:33 > 0:55:35HALT!
0:55:39 > 0:55:44Who told Standard Five to come in first like this?
0:55:47 > 0:55:50I am responsible, Mr Harby.
0:55:51 > 0:55:56This is Miss Brangwen, replacement teacher for Standard Five.
0:55:57 > 0:56:00For her benefit we'll start again.
0:56:21 > 0:56:23CRACKS KNUCKLES
0:56:25 > 0:56:27PIANO
0:56:51 > 0:56:57Describe the modern factory and the assembly of a given product.
0:56:57 > 0:57:00I will expect you...
0:57:06 > 0:57:09We will start with a composition.
0:57:10 > 0:57:13Write me a short essay on...
0:57:13 > 0:57:15..the rabbit.
0:57:15 > 0:57:17ALL GROAN
0:57:17 > 0:57:20Miss, I got the pinny.
0:57:20 > 0:57:26Thank you. Timmy, isn't it?
0:57:22 > 0:57:26No, miss, it's Jim.
0:57:23 > 0:57:26I'm sorry. Thank you.
0:57:36 > 0:57:38ROARS OF LAUGHTER
0:57:42 > 0:57:45WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS?! >
0:57:49 > 0:57:50Yes, Richards?
0:57:50 > 0:57:56Sir, Miss forgot her pinny, and Miss Harby sent me for one of hers.
0:57:56 > 0:58:00I put it in my satchel so it wouldn't get rained on...
0:58:00 > 0:58:05..and there were chalk in it. I forgot, sir.
0:58:03 > 0:58:05Spell the word "pinafore".
0:58:06 > 0:58:10P-I-N-A-F-O-U-R
0:58:10 > 0:58:12CHILDREN LAUGH
0:58:12 > 0:58:17You will write "pinafore" 100 times on the blackboard after school.
0:58:18 > 0:58:23Miss Brangwen will supervise you. This time she will supply the chalk.
0:58:23 > 0:58:25LAUGHTER
0:58:26 > 0:58:30Silence. Resume your studies.
0:58:31 > 0:58:35I will examine your efforts in the morning.
0:59:05 > 0:59:08Isn't it done?
0:59:06 > 0:59:08Not yet.
0:59:08 > 0:59:12I didn't know we had a stove. Must be jolly bringing lunch.
0:59:13 > 0:59:19On the other hand, if one lived here it would be jollier to go home.
0:59:19 > 0:59:24Miss Brangwen, if I were you I'd get a tighter hand on my class.
0:59:24 > 0:59:27Would you? Aren't I strict enough?
0:59:27 > 0:59:31They'll get you down if you don't tackle them.
0:59:31 > 0:59:35They'll pull you down till Harby has you shifted.
0:59:35 > 0:59:39You won't last a month if you don't tackle them.
0:59:39 > 0:59:42But I...
0:59:40 > 0:59:42He's got his eye on you.
0:59:42 > 0:59:45< Get in his bad books and you'll be out.
0:59:46 > 0:59:52Not that it matters to me, except I might have to cope with your class.
0:59:53 > 0:59:58Will it be so terrible?
0:59:55 > 0:59:58I don't know about terrible.
0:59:59 > 1:00:03I do feel frightened. The children seem so...
1:00:03 > 1:00:05So...what?
1:00:06 > 1:00:09Mr Brunt says I must tackle my class.
1:00:09 > 1:00:14You have to keep order to teach.
1:00:11 > 1:00:14If you want to survive.
1:00:14 > 1:00:18If you can't do that, what good are you?
1:00:18 > 1:00:21You'll have to do it by yourself.
1:00:21 > 1:00:23Indeed.
1:00:23 > 1:00:26Some people can't be helped.
1:00:26 > 1:00:32Do you think there will be a war?
1:00:28 > 1:00:32More like a bloody massacre in your case.
1:00:38 > 1:00:43When you say "Their fur is brown", how do you spell "their"?
1:00:43 > 1:00:46Please, miss - T-H-E-I-R!
1:00:46 > 1:00:48Richards. Stand up.
1:00:48 > 1:00:50Who told you to call out?
1:00:50 > 1:00:53I was answering, sir.
1:00:51 > 1:00:53Go to my desk.
1:00:57 > 1:00:59Pens down.
1:01:00 > 1:01:02Fold arms.
1:01:02 > 1:01:06What is the subject of your composition?
1:01:06 > 1:01:09I wouldn't advise you to call out.
1:01:09 > 1:01:13Well, Alice?
1:01:11 > 1:01:13The rabbit, sir.
1:01:13 > 1:01:18Not very difficult for Standard Five. Or very original.
1:01:19 > 1:01:26Don't nibble your lip. You've written about rabbits so often you're turning into one.
1:01:37 > 1:01:40BEATS BOY SIX TIMES >
1:02:02 > 1:02:07That'll do, Richards, you can go.
1:02:04 > 1:02:07But the master said 100 times.
1:02:07 > 1:02:10I know, but you may go home now.
1:02:10 > 1:02:12I said go home.
1:02:45 > 1:02:47OW!
1:02:58 > 1:03:00I cut my finger on a nail.
1:03:04 > 1:03:08Where was that?
1:03:05 > 1:03:08Erm...on my desk.
1:03:08 > 1:03:13Show me, I'll take care of it.
1:03:10 > 1:03:13Yes, thank you, I will tomorrow.
1:03:18 > 1:03:23That Richards, Miss Brangwen, you've made a rod for your own back.
1:03:24 > 1:03:27You're very young and inexperienced.
1:03:27 > 1:03:30Hardly out of school yourself.
1:03:30 > 1:03:34I could be very useful to you, Miss Brangwen.
1:03:34 > 1:03:36I could make it easier for you.
1:03:36 > 1:03:39So much easier. If only you'd...
1:03:43 > 1:03:45I could swallow you whole.
1:03:46 > 1:03:51You see, Miss Brangwen, only my cane rules this school.
1:04:00 > 1:04:02SOBS
1:04:32 > 1:04:34Hello, lass! How did it go?
1:04:34 > 1:04:38Fine, Dad. It was a bit strange at first.
1:04:38 > 1:04:43Bound to be. Hey, you just missed your Uncle Henry.
1:04:43 > 1:04:48Oh?
1:04:45 > 1:04:48Dropped in with a lady.
1:04:48 > 1:04:51Oh?
1:04:49 > 1:04:51< Your old teacher.
1:04:51 > 1:04:53Miss Inger?
1:04:54 > 1:04:57Aye. Seems they're getting married.
1:04:57 > 1:04:59And guess what.
1:04:59 > 1:05:03They want you to be chief bridesmaid.
1:05:03 > 1:05:05LAUGHS >
1:05:12 > 1:05:14< TAPPING ON GLASS
1:05:14 > 1:05:21< Relations, neighbours, friends, lift up your glasses and drink to the hearth and the home.
1:05:21 > 1:05:27The hearth, the home, and may they enjoy them.
1:05:24 > 1:05:27- ALL: - The hearth, the home!
1:05:27 > 1:05:32Night and day and may they enjoy it.
1:05:29 > 1:05:32- ALL: - Night and day!
1:05:32 > 1:05:37Hammer and tongs, and may they enjoy them.
1:05:34 > 1:05:37Hammer and tongs!
1:05:37 > 1:05:43Bed and blessings, and may they enjoy them.
1:05:39 > 1:05:43- LAUGHS: - Bed and blessings!
1:05:45 > 1:05:49Marriage... Marriage...
1:05:47 > 1:05:49CHATTER CONTINUES
1:05:49 > 1:05:53Marriage is...
1:05:50 > 1:05:53HUSH DESCENDS
1:05:51 > 1:05:53It's what we're made for.
1:05:53 > 1:05:56A man enjoys being a man.
1:05:56 > 1:06:01< For what purpose was he made a man if not to enjoy it?
1:06:02 > 1:06:06And likewise a woman enjoys being a woman.
1:06:06 > 1:06:09Least in my eyes she does.
1:06:10 > 1:06:14Now, for a man to be a man it takes a woman...
1:06:15 > 1:06:19..and for a woman to be a woman it takes a man. >
1:06:22 > 1:06:27And therefore we have marriage.
1:06:24 > 1:06:27Don't run us off our legs.
1:06:27 > 1:06:31There is no marriage in heaven, but on earth there is.
1:06:31 > 1:06:37If there are no marriages in heaven, where do the angels come from?
1:06:35 > 1:06:37LAUGHTER
1:06:38 > 1:06:42Angels... If there's got to be angels...
1:06:42 > 1:06:44There's got to be, hasn't there?
1:06:44 > 1:06:51If there's got to be angels, and there are no men or women amongst them...
1:06:51 > 1:06:56..it seems to me as a married couple makes one angel.
1:06:57 > 1:06:59It's the drink!
1:07:01 > 1:07:02Go on.
1:07:04 > 1:07:09An angel has got to be more than a human being.
1:07:09 > 1:07:15So I say an angel is the soul of a man and a woman in one.
1:07:17 > 1:07:19And, and, and...!
1:07:19 > 1:07:24No, wait! They rise up, united in the Judgement Day, as one angel.
1:07:25 > 1:07:27Aye!
1:07:27 > 1:07:31I had an angel up my nose once.
1:07:29 > 1:07:31LAUGHTER
1:07:32 > 1:07:36My mother said, "Why are you poking about up there?"
1:07:36 > 1:07:41I said, "I've got an angel up my nose." She gave me such a swipe.
1:07:43 > 1:07:48We called dandelion seeds "angels" and I'd stuffed one up my nose.
1:07:52 > 1:07:58If I become an angel, it'll be my married soul, not my single soul.
1:07:58 > 1:08:04So I say...an angel is the soul of a man and a woman...
1:08:04 > 1:08:06..in one.
1:08:09 > 1:08:12How lovely.
1:08:10 > 1:08:12Praise the Lord.
1:08:13 > 1:08:15ALL: Praise the Lord!
1:08:16 > 1:08:18Praise the Lord!

1:08:29 > 1:08:34Isn't it nice to have a wedding?
1:08:31 > 1:08:34You have confetti in your hair.
1:08:34 > 1:08:37I hear you're teaching.
1:08:37 > 1:08:42Yes. I thought you might have gone off to war.
1:08:39 > 1:08:42I embark at Southampton on Friday.
1:08:43 > 1:08:46Do you want to go?
1:08:44 > 1:08:46I want to go, yes.
1:08:47 > 1:08:52Ladies and gentlemen, take your partners for the Lancers, please.
1:08:52 > 1:08:56# JOLLY MUSIC #
1:08:57 > 1:09:00Why do you want to go to war?
1:09:00 > 1:09:04To do something genuine. It's a toy life, as it is.
1:09:04 > 1:09:10What'll you be doing?
1:09:06 > 1:09:10Making railways, building bridges, working like a slave.
1:09:10 > 1:09:15But they'll be pulled down when the Army's done with them.
1:09:15 > 1:09:19It's like a game.
1:09:16 > 1:09:19Not to those taking part.
1:09:19 > 1:09:23It's about the most serious business there is, fighting.
1:09:24 > 1:09:29Why is fighting more serious than teaching, for instance?
1:09:29 > 1:09:34You kill or get killed. It's serious enough, killing.
1:09:34 > 1:09:39When you're dead you don't matter.
1:09:36 > 1:09:39But it matters whether we settle the Boers.
1:09:39 > 1:09:43Not to you or me. Do you want to live in Africa?
1:09:43 > 1:09:47No, but we have to do this or it's the end of the nation.
1:09:47 > 1:09:51But we aren't the nation. Heaps of others are.
1:09:51 > 1:09:53Everybody could say that.
1:09:53 > 1:09:58If everybody said it, there'd be no nation, but I should be myself.
1:09:58 > 1:10:03You'd be at the mercy of every robber that came along.
1:10:01 > 1:10:03They wouldn't get much.
1:10:04 > 1:10:08I'd rather be swept off my feet by a robber than a soldier.
1:10:09 > 1:10:12Only because you can't imagine me out of uniform.
1:11:19 > 1:11:21Will this do?
1:11:23 > 1:11:26Now may I steal your heart?
1:11:26 > 1:11:29It's not my heart you want but my soul.
1:11:31 > 1:11:33Kiss me.
1:13:12 > 1:13:18Kiss me, Anton! Kiss me! Kiss me!
1:13:28 > 1:13:30MUSIC & CHATTER
1:14:02 > 1:14:05They see war as a game, anyway.
1:14:06 > 1:14:09Bang!
1:14:07 > 1:14:09Arghhhh!
1:14:24 > 1:14:28Anton?
1:14:26 > 1:14:28What?
1:14:28 > 1:14:31Come back to me.
1:14:29 > 1:14:31Yes.
1:14:31 > 1:14:34You will come back to me?
1:14:32 > 1:14:34I will come back.
1:14:35 > 1:14:38I'm going to dance with Anton.
1:14:39 > 1:14:41May I take the soldier?
1:15:09 > 1:15:13Ursula's looking a bit upset.
1:15:11 > 1:15:13Oh?
1:15:13 > 1:15:15< Ask her to dance.
1:15:16 > 1:15:19Go and ask her. Go and ask her now.
1:15:21 > 1:15:26As father of the chief bridesmaid, may I have the pleasure?
1:15:43 > 1:15:45Such a condition in a class.
1:15:47 > 1:15:50I don't believe it. Simply disgraceful.
1:15:51 > 1:15:55I can't think how you've been allowed to get like it.
1:15:55 > 1:15:58Every Monday I shall examine these books...
1:15:58 > 1:16:04..so don't think you can unlearn everything you've learned...
1:16:04 > 1:16:07..and go back to Standard Three.
1:16:07 > 1:16:12Why are you writing in pencil?
1:16:09 > 1:16:12There aren't enough pens to go round.
1:16:12 > 1:16:16Not enough pens, Miss Brangwen?
1:16:16 > 1:16:18No. We are five short.
1:16:18 > 1:16:21Oh. And how is that?
1:16:24 > 1:16:28How many are here today?
1:16:26 > 1:16:28Twenty-four.
1:16:29 > 1:16:32How many pens are there? Staples?
1:16:33 > 1:16:35Please, sir, 19.
1:16:35 > 1:16:40That's very curious. A few days ago there were 24 pens.
1:16:40 > 1:16:44Now there are 19. What's 19 from 24, Richards?
1:16:44 > 1:16:48Please, sir?
1:16:46 > 1:16:48I'm waiting, Richards.
1:16:49 > 1:16:51Eleven, sir.
1:16:51 > 1:16:58I would advise you to attend. 19 from 24 is 5, so there are five pens to account for.
1:16:58 > 1:17:03Have you looked for them, Staples?
1:17:01 > 1:17:03Yes, sir.
1:17:04 > 1:17:09Am I to have thieving, besides your dirt, bad work and bad behaviour?
1:17:09 > 1:17:16Not content with being the worst class in the school, you are thieves as well.
1:17:16 > 1:17:21Pens do not melt into the air, or mizzle away into nothing.
1:17:21 > 1:17:27They must be somewhere and they must be found by Standard Five.
1:17:27 > 1:17:33They were lost by Standard Five and they must be found!
1:17:30 > 1:17:33WHISTLE
1:17:33 > 1:17:37No recreation until all pens are found.
1:17:37 > 1:17:41Miss Brangwen will organise the search.
1:17:43 > 1:17:48To start with, you will turn out your desks completely.
1:17:48 > 1:17:53Not just your books, but conkers, string, sweets, everything.
1:17:59 > 1:18:04Be quiet, Wesley. What is it?
1:18:01 > 1:18:04Please, miss, Richards hit me.
1:18:04 > 1:18:06Come in front, Richards.
1:18:06 > 1:18:10I said come in front!
1:18:08 > 1:18:10I SHAN'T!
1:18:12 > 1:18:15Ah! Get off!
1:18:18 > 1:18:20STAND STILL!
1:18:20 > 1:18:22Fold your arms!
1:18:23 > 1:18:25LAUGHTER
1:18:25 > 1:18:28Get off me, you bitch!
1:18:26 > 1:18:28OW!
1:18:28 > 1:18:30OW!
1:18:39 > 1:18:41Get off! >
1:18:52 > 1:18:55WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!
1:18:58 > 1:19:00I've thrashed him.
1:19:03 > 1:19:06Get up! Go and stand by my desk!
1:19:19 > 1:19:24If you settle Benson and Staples the same way, you'll be all right.
1:19:24 > 1:19:27Put your things away tidily!
1:19:25 > 1:19:27Sharp! Sharp!
1:19:29 > 1:19:33I said... put your things away tidily!
1:19:35 > 1:19:40There will be no more time wasted looking for lost pens.
1:19:41 > 1:19:45New pens will be issued first thing Monday morning.
1:19:45 > 1:19:47Carry on!
1:20:12 > 1:20:14What's he say?
1:20:14 > 1:20:16You know perfectly well.
1:20:16 > 1:20:20Since it's all about the weather, it must be in code.
1:20:20 > 1:20:24There's a tatie pot in the oven for you.
1:20:24 > 1:20:26Thanks, Mother.
1:20:35 > 1:20:37Dad in church?
1:20:37 > 1:20:39As usual.
1:20:39 > 1:20:41Aren't you hungry?
1:20:41 > 1:20:46Pay day!
1:20:43 > 1:20:46You've been there a month already?
1:20:46 > 1:20:48This is my board.
1:20:50 > 1:20:52Fifty shillings.
1:20:52 > 1:20:54Aye.
1:20:55 > 1:20:59Come and get your dinner. Billy, bedtime.
1:21:41 > 1:21:44That was the happiest day of her life.
1:21:44 > 1:21:47A souvenir from the class bouquet?
1:21:47 > 1:21:51A memento of her time at that prison.
1:21:51 > 1:21:54I thought she enjoyed the challenge.
1:21:54 > 1:21:56Nobody likes school.
1:21:56 > 1:21:59You don't like your art school?
1:21:57 > 1:21:59That's different.
1:21:59 > 1:22:02Here's us at Scarborough in the holidays.
1:22:02 > 1:22:05A few sunny days on parole.
1:22:05 > 1:22:08Dad and I ran the handicrafts school.
1:22:08 > 1:22:12Ursula spent her time at the harbour with the sailors.
1:22:13 > 1:22:15No souvenirs of them?
1:22:15 > 1:22:19Not here. There's plenty of you, though.
1:22:19 > 1:22:24I've often wondered about this one. Who are those wretched folk?
1:22:24 > 1:22:27The Boers. The enemy.
1:22:27 > 1:22:32But they're civilians. And that woman - were you fighting women?
1:22:32 > 1:22:38She had six notches in her rifle.
1:22:35 > 1:22:38Why?
1:22:35 > 1:22:38Six notches - six lives.
1:22:38 > 1:22:42Carlisle College with the suffragettes - and the teachers.
1:22:42 > 1:22:44Another prison?
1:22:47 > 1:22:49This is beautiful.
1:22:49 > 1:22:54A cross section of human hair. Such delicate abstraction.
1:22:55 > 1:22:58I prefer the coarse reality.
1:22:57 > 1:22:58Gudrun!
1:23:09 > 1:23:13Anton was just admiring...your hair.
1:23:14 > 1:23:17She was only being polite.
1:23:19 > 1:23:21We were waiting for you.
1:23:21 > 1:23:24Yes. Exams started late.
1:23:24 > 1:23:29How did you do?
1:23:25 > 1:23:29Not very well. You shouldn't have encouraged her.
1:23:29 > 1:23:32No. But I was all agog.
1:23:33 > 1:23:38You've been very busy these last two years, haven't you?
1:23:38 > 1:23:41Yes. So have you, I gather.
1:23:41 > 1:23:43Yes.
1:23:46 > 1:23:50I'm very happy to see you.
1:23:48 > 1:23:50Thank you.
1:23:50 > 1:23:53Is there anything you'd like to do?
1:23:53 > 1:23:59Is there anything we can do?
1:23:55 > 1:23:59There's nothing to do here.
1:23:57 > 1:23:59Then let's walk.
1:23:59 > 1:24:01By the river?
1:24:12 > 1:24:17I was quite flattered by the space allocated to me in your scrapbook.
1:24:17 > 1:24:21Soldiering is more important than teaching.
1:24:22 > 1:24:24I'd hoped you'd forgotten that.
1:24:24 > 1:24:29The number of times I've regretted that last evening.
1:24:29 > 1:24:32It could have ended there and then.
1:24:32 > 1:24:39No, you were right. I enjoyed that awful school because I had such high hopes for college.
1:24:39 > 1:24:46I saw it as a kind of religious retreat, a temple dedicated to truth and learning.
1:24:46 > 1:24:51In reality, it's just a factory where you learn to make money.
1:24:51 > 1:24:53In the Army, we earn glory.
1:24:53 > 1:24:57I read the casualty lists every week. It was horrible.
1:24:57 > 1:24:59I knew I'd come back.
1:24:59 > 1:25:04I went back to our church once. Everything was clean and orderly.
1:25:04 > 1:25:06Seemed like a dream.
1:25:07 > 1:25:09It's getting dark.
1:25:09 > 1:25:11Shall I hold your hand?
1:25:15 > 1:25:20I'm not afraid of the dark in England - it's soft and natural.
1:25:20 > 1:25:24It's my medium. Especially when you are here.
1:25:24 > 1:25:28The darkness, were you afraid of it in Africa?
1:25:28 > 1:25:34Yes. The darkness there is filled with fear, like the smell of blood.
1:25:34 > 1:25:37The blacks know it. They worship it.
1:25:37 > 1:25:41The darkness. One almost likes it. The fear -...
1:25:42 > 1:25:44..something sensual.
1:25:45 > 1:25:48Did you think of me in the darkness?
1:25:48 > 1:25:51You were at the back of everything.
1:25:51 > 1:25:54I had to come back to you.
1:26:44 > 1:26:46This is lovely.
1:26:46 > 1:26:51The last time I was here it was under false pretences, too.
1:26:51 > 1:26:57Another lover?
1:26:52 > 1:26:57Yes!
1:26:53 > 1:26:57Aren't I the first?
1:26:54 > 1:26:57First and last. No, it was Winifred.
1:26:57 > 1:26:59Really?
1:26:59 > 1:27:02She was my first great passion.
1:27:02 > 1:27:06I'm sure she said above the front door. Here we are.
1:27:07 > 1:27:09Welcome.
1:27:20 > 1:27:26I'm glad you're not always naked or all the women'd fall in love with you
1:27:26 > 1:27:30They do, regularly. I'm considered quite a catch.
1:27:30 > 1:27:36Oh! Not a fish out of water, I hope, flapping about on the ground.
1:27:36 > 1:27:40Oh, no, there's my colonel's daughter, for instance.
1:28:22 > 1:28:24SNIFFS
1:28:24 > 1:28:28Scent?
1:28:25 > 1:28:28Soap.
1:28:27 > 1:28:28Soap!
1:28:31 > 1:28:33GIGGLES
1:28:36 > 1:28:41Would you rather live in India or England when we're married?
1:28:38 > 1:28:41India, by far. Nice of you to ask.
1:28:41 > 1:28:46It was decided long ago, wasn't it? When I first kissed you.
1:28:46 > 1:28:51You'll like India. There's a good social life, hunting, polo.
1:28:51 > 1:28:53I'll teach you to ride.
1:28:53 > 1:28:59Plenty of servants...who'll cook, bathe babies, keep you cool.
1:28:59 > 1:29:04I'll teach little Hindus to write essays on the rabbit!
1:29:06 > 1:29:11You wouldn't have to teach, you wouldn't have to do anything.
1:29:11 > 1:29:16But I do want to teach, and I don't want to be with other people.
1:29:16 > 1:29:20I want to be like this. Isn't this enough?
1:29:20 > 1:29:22It's enough for now.
1:29:22 > 1:29:26Then let's have no more talk of marriage.
1:29:26 > 1:29:32Which means that I'm to get supper tomorrow?
1:29:29 > 1:29:32I'll keep you to that!
1:29:38 > 1:29:40BLOWS HORN
1:29:40 > 1:29:44Strawberries! Strawberries! Fresh ripe strawberries!
1:29:44 > 1:29:46Shush, you'll wake them.
1:29:46 > 1:29:49All this hollering and pounding.
1:29:49 > 1:29:55I expected them up at this hour.
1:29:52 > 1:29:55Woman, you have a fickle memory.
1:29:55 > 1:29:58Strawberries! Fresh ripe strawberries!
1:29:58 > 1:30:04What a bore!
1:29:59 > 1:30:04She's supposed to be chaperoning us. We're supposed to be her guests.
1:30:04 > 1:30:08Were you expecting her?
1:30:06 > 1:30:08Didn't I say?
1:30:08 > 1:30:12< Lt Skrebensky, your staff sergeant here.
1:30:12 > 1:30:16< Ursula! Anton! I wonder where they are.
1:30:16 > 1:30:20< Maybe they've gone out.
1:30:18 > 1:30:20< Don't be stupid, woman.
1:30:22 > 1:30:24BABY CRIES
1:30:29 > 1:30:34Good morning, grocer. Kindly leave them on the doorstep and go away!
1:30:35 > 1:30:40Why have you got your bloomers round your neck?
1:30:40 > 1:30:43< Anton's wearing my nightie!
1:30:51 > 1:30:54But do you love him?
1:30:54 > 1:30:58It isn't a question of love. I love him well enough.
1:30:58 > 1:31:00More than anyone else.
1:31:00 > 1:31:04And I shall never love anyone else the same again.
1:31:04 > 1:31:09What does it mean, love? It doesn't lead anywhere.
1:31:09 > 1:31:13It isn't supposed to lead anywhere. It's an end in itself.
1:31:13 > 1:31:18Then I could love a hundred men one after the other.
1:31:18 > 1:31:22Why should I end as Mrs Skrebensky, social wife?
1:31:22 > 1:31:29Why not love all the types I fancy, as Ursula Brangwen, spinster, school mistress?
1:31:29 > 1:31:36Then you don't love him.
1:31:31 > 1:31:36I tell you, I do. Quite as much, and perhaps more, than any of the others.
1:31:36 > 1:31:42But there are things that aren't in Anton that I'd love in other men.
1:31:40 > 1:31:42Like what?
1:31:42 > 1:31:48An understanding, a directness. A man who could let go - reckless and passionate.
1:31:49 > 1:31:53What is this fantastic fulfilment you're hankering after?
1:31:53 > 1:31:56Is it just other men? Hmm? >
1:31:57 > 1:32:01If it is, you'd better marry Anton.
1:32:01 > 1:32:04The other thing can only end badly.
1:32:04 > 1:32:08So I'm to marry out of fear of myself?
1:32:09 > 1:32:11< We're ready for you!
1:32:11 > 1:32:13< Time for mixed doubles.
1:32:16 > 1:32:21I can see you on an elephant - amongst adoring natives.
1:32:21 > 1:32:27I shall be glad to leave England, it's so unspiritual.
1:32:24 > 1:32:27Leave the home of democracy?
1:32:27 > 1:32:32Democracy... is only for the degenerate races.
1:32:32 > 1:32:38Why is democracy unspiritual?
1:32:33 > 1:32:38Because only the ugly and the greedy succeed.
1:32:38 > 1:32:41The people elect the government.
1:32:41 > 1:32:48But what are the people? Each of them has a money interest, and they choose those who have money.
1:32:48 > 1:32:51They rule in the name of money.
1:32:51 > 1:32:54To me democracy means equality.
1:32:54 > 1:32:58The equality of the wage packet is a democracy of dirt.
1:32:58 > 1:33:03Then you should give away your worldly goods.
1:33:00 > 1:33:03Or join us filthy aristocrats!
1:33:03 > 1:33:06Up onto the pedestal!
1:33:06 > 1:33:10Revolutionaries and aristocrats don't mix.
1:33:10 > 1:33:14But she is an aristocrat - of the spirit.
1:33:16 > 1:33:18YES!
1:33:19 > 1:33:22Stay just as long as you like.
1:33:22 > 1:33:26As long as you don't want to play croquet at the hall!
1:33:27 > 1:33:29Bye!
1:33:36 > 1:33:40Marriage agrees with them.
1:33:37 > 1:33:40Meaning they agree with each other.
1:33:40 > 1:33:45It's a little odd, though.
1:33:41 > 1:33:45Odd?
1:33:42 > 1:33:45Something unnatural about Winifred.
1:33:45 > 1:33:48Yes, she has two left feet.
1:33:46 > 1:33:48I meant her tendencies.
1:33:48 > 1:33:51She should be in a freak show(!)
1:33:51 > 1:33:58Your relationship isn't healthy. Just as well we're going to India.
1:33:55 > 1:33:58You say the Indians aren't healthy.
1:33:58 > 1:34:03We'll improve health standards.
1:34:00 > 1:34:03I meant you might find them freakish.
1:34:03 > 1:34:07Ursula, you must come with me for your own good.
1:34:07 > 1:34:11You'll govern the Indians for their own good with your dead judgements.
1:34:11 > 1:34:17If they have to bow down to you, I do not. You're so self-righteous!
1:34:18 > 1:34:21Aren't you righteous, in your own mind?
1:34:21 > 1:34:27Yes! But at least I am something. There's nobody there where you are.
1:34:27 > 1:34:30Are you anybody, with your old dead things?
1:34:38 > 1:34:40I didn't mean to hurt you.
1:34:40 > 1:34:43Yes, you did.
1:34:44 > 1:34:48The words came out without my knowing.
1:34:51 > 1:34:54They didn't mean anything really.
1:34:55 > 1:34:58You're a romantic, up on some hill...
1:34:58 > 1:35:03..so you'll always be looking down, always disappointed.
1:35:03 > 1:35:08Why must I climb that hill, Anton? Why not stay below?
1:35:09 > 1:35:15Why force one's way up, step after step, for a moment of exhilaration at the top...
1:35:15 > 1:35:18..only to plunge into a dark valley?
1:35:18 > 1:35:24When shall we be married?
1:35:20 > 1:35:24I don't know!
1:35:21 > 1:35:24Don't you want to be married?
1:35:24 > 1:35:26I don't think I do!
1:35:26 > 1:35:30You mean never, or not yet?
1:35:28 > 1:35:30I mean never.
1:35:33 > 1:35:39He may take you back. You'll have to wait for his reply to your letter.
1:35:39 > 1:35:43I was full of apologies for my perverse, selfish behaviour.
1:35:46 > 1:35:49The child will make a difference.
1:35:49 > 1:35:51That's what decided me.
1:35:52 > 1:35:56I must go to him, because it's his child and because...
1:35:56 > 1:35:58..he once loved me.
1:35:59 > 1:36:01Is that the only reason?
1:36:01 > 1:36:03Croquet!
1:36:03 > 1:36:06I thought about my mother, too.
1:36:06 > 1:36:12If it was enough for her to have her man and children, why not for me?
1:36:12 > 1:36:17Why do I punish those who love me? I should be grateful for them.
1:36:17 > 1:36:23Do your parents know?
1:36:19 > 1:36:23I couldn't tell them so soon after failing my degree.
1:36:23 > 1:36:25What if Anton says no?
1:36:26 > 1:36:31I'll live at home with the child and go back to teaching.
1:36:31 > 1:36:34You haven't even seen a midwife.
1:36:34 > 1:36:40What if Anton says yes, you go to India and you find you're not with child?
1:36:44 > 1:36:49You'll come straight back, that's what you'll do.
1:36:50 > 1:36:55A child binds you to a man as securely as if you were handcuffed.
1:36:56 > 1:36:59Aren't you and Henry...?
1:36:57 > 1:36:59Very good companions.
1:37:03 > 1:37:07But remember, you will always be welcome here.
1:37:07 > 1:37:09GONG
1:37:09 > 1:37:14Tea.
1:37:10 > 1:37:14I won't stop.
1:37:11 > 1:37:14Henry'll be back soon.
1:37:14 > 1:37:17It's getting late. I'll get my things.
1:37:58 > 1:38:00WHINNIES

1:39:53 > 1:39:55< SINGING CONTINUES
1:41:28 > 1:41:30SCREAM
1:41:41 > 1:41:46Your mother said to let you lie in, but I had to see you were all right.
1:41:46 > 1:41:48Thanks, Dad.
1:41:51 > 1:41:54< We wondered where you'd got to.
1:41:55 > 1:41:57No bike or anything.
1:41:59 > 1:42:02Me and your mother were worried.
1:42:03 > 1:42:06And er...then we saw the telegram had gone.
1:42:06 > 1:42:09Yes, I saw you'd opened it.
1:42:10 > 1:42:15The boy asked if there was a reply. Naturally your mother thought...
1:42:17 > 1:42:21No marriage, no bike, no wonder you were worried.
1:42:23 > 1:42:28The bike's in a ditch. Is that where you expected to find me?
1:42:28 > 1:42:32I can see there's nothing much wrong with you.
1:42:33 > 1:42:35You were quite feverish earlier.
1:42:35 > 1:42:38I caught a chill.
1:42:38 > 1:42:42I heard the party. Didn't want to be a wet blanket.
1:42:42 > 1:42:44Don't be so silly.
1:42:46 > 1:42:51Your mother took the children out. Anything I can get you?
1:42:51 > 1:42:55No thanks, Dad. I think I'll lie in for a while.
1:42:55 > 1:42:57Thanks for the tea.
1:42:57 > 1:42:59Aye.
1:42:59 > 1:43:00Goodbye, lass.
1:43:00 > 1:43:02Bye, Dad.
1:43:03 > 1:43:05Don't work too hard.
1:43:05 > 1:43:10I'm er... I'm in town today. Thought I'd drop in your old school.
1:43:11 > 1:43:13Whatever for?
1:43:13 > 1:43:16Well, now that you're...
1:43:16 > 1:43:18Now that you're...
1:43:18 > 1:43:22Now that I'm an old maid?
1:43:20 > 1:43:22Let me finish.
1:43:22 > 1:43:25Now you're not off to the other side of the world...
1:43:25 > 1:43:28Or even the other side of London.
1:43:28 > 1:43:35I was just going to say that... this has always been, and always will be, your home.
1:43:43 > 1:43:46Hey, look, there's a rainbow.
