0:01:12 > 0:01:14Shh. Hey.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Bathsheba Everdene.

0:01:21 > 0:01:22Bathsheba...

0:01:24 > 0:01:26The name has always sounded strange to me.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28I don't like to hear it said out loud.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32My parents died when I was very young

0:01:32 > 0:01:34so there's no-one to ask where it came from.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39I've grown accustomed to being on my own.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Some say...too accustomed.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Too independent.

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Ya!

0:03:00 > 0:03:02DOG BARKS

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Miss!

0:03:19 > 0:03:20Miss!

0:03:35 > 0:03:36My scarf.

0:03:37 > 0:03:38I lost it.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43- You must be Farmer Oak? - Gabriel, yes.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45My aunt's told me about you.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47I'm working on her farm for the winter.

0:03:50 > 0:03:51This is your land.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55I'm trespassing.

0:03:55 > 0:03:56You're welcome here.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Good afternoon, Farmer Oak. - Good afternoon, miss.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34HE WHISTLES, SHEEP BLEAT

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Come by, George.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46George, away! Enough, George!

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Enough!

0:04:49 > 0:04:52Stand. Stand.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55George, stand.

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Away!

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Away!

0:04:58 > 0:05:00George, away!

0:05:02 > 0:05:05He doesn't know when to stop, Young George.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08- What's this one called? - Old George.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10SHE LAUGHS

0:05:10 > 0:05:11Old George!

0:05:11 > 0:05:13So you find me amusing, do you?

0:05:18 > 0:05:19OLD GEORGE WHIMPERS

0:05:24 > 0:05:26HORSE WHINNIES

0:06:01 > 0:06:03Goodness, it's Mr Oak.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15..and after that she was going to be a governess.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19But she was far too wild. Always has been.

0:06:19 > 0:06:20Oh!

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Miss Bathsheba Everdene...

0:06:31 > 0:06:32..I've brought you a lamb.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Oh!

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Thank you, Mr Oak.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41He's such a dear thing.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43He's come too soon and won't last the winter,

0:06:43 > 0:06:46so I thought you'd like to rear it instead.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Thank you, that's very kind.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50I'll make some tea.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56- The lamb is not why I came. - Go on.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03Well, Miss Everdene, I wanted to ask...

0:07:03 > 0:07:04would you like to marry me?

0:07:07 > 0:07:09I've never asked anyone before.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13No.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14I should hope not.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18Well...

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Perhaps I... I should...

0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Perhaps I should leave.- Mr Oak, there are things to consider.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Is someone waiting for you?

0:07:29 > 0:07:32No. But that doesn't mean I'll marry you.

0:07:33 > 0:07:34Good day to you, then.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Mr Oak!

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Mr Oak!

0:07:47 > 0:07:48Wait!

0:07:51 > 0:07:54I didn't say I wouldn't marry you either.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58I haven't ever really thought about it.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00I have 100 acres and 200 sheep.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05If I pay off the money, the farm is ours.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09You could have a piano in a year or two.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13Flowers and birds and a frame for cucumbers.

0:08:13 > 0:08:14A baby or two.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15- Mr Oak...- Or more.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18I will always be there for you.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23Mr Oak, I don't want a husband.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25I'd hate to be some man's property.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28I shouldn't mind being a bride at a wedding

0:08:28 > 0:08:30if I could be one without getting a husband.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32That's stupid talk.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36You are better off than I, Mr Oak.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I have an education and nothing more.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42- You could do much, much better than me.- That's not the reason.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49I'm too independent for you.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52If I ever were to marry, I'd want somebody to tame me

0:08:52 > 0:08:53and you'd never be able to do it.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57You'd grow to despise me.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01I would not.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Ever.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Goodbye, Miss Everdene.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54We wish you well, Mr Oak.

0:13:09 > 0:13:10Bathsheba!

0:13:15 > 0:13:17What is it?

0:13:17 > 0:13:21My love! It's your poor uncle's will.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23What does it say?

0:13:24 > 0:13:26Read it.

0:13:27 > 0:13:28Read!

0:13:30 > 0:13:33He's left you everything. It's all yours!

0:13:36 > 0:13:39Oh, my goodness.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42Take care, you hear?

0:13:50 > 0:13:51Walk on.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Bye!

0:14:17 > 0:14:20So who will join us, lads?

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Which one of you fine boys will put on the scarlet uniform

0:14:23 > 0:14:27and proudly serve his Queen and country?

0:14:27 > 0:14:30See the world.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Form an orderly line, gentlemen, at the front.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35This gentleman in the straw hat, step forward, sir.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37That's my sweetheart, right there.

0:14:37 > 0:14:41You, sir, next to the pretty lady.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44There's a good strong figure of a man. Join us, sir.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Go on. You'd make a fine soldier.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Always room in the ranks for a gentleman of your calibre.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's a roof over your head. Food.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Who wants a fine wage?

0:14:55 > 0:14:56Excuse me.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59You might try Weatherbury. If you're looking for work,

0:14:59 > 0:15:01there's a farm there, needs all the help they can get.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03Yes. The young lad, there.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05I will. Thank you.

0:15:05 > 0:15:06And your friend as well.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08You should have a cloak for a day like this.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Francis will take care of me.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15We are to be married soon.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Goodbye. - Come on, a decent wage.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23Make your family proud. Food, shelter. Who will join us?

0:16:02 > 0:16:05DISTANT SHOUTING

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Go and wake up the other farms!

0:16:17 > 0:16:19- Get them down here! - We need more hands!

0:16:19 > 0:16:22We need more men now! Wake them up!

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Go and get the Smith brothers first.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Protect yourself, the fire's spreading!

0:16:28 > 0:16:30Who's in charge here?

0:16:30 > 0:16:33- We're losing the ricks! - The rick is lost.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35We need to save the barn. Come on, help me!

0:16:35 > 0:16:40Come on, get some more water! Get some more water!

0:16:40 > 0:16:42We need to push this out. Come on!

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Heave!

0:16:45 > 0:16:47ALL: Heave!

0:16:47 > 0:16:50Heave!

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Come on, push!

0:17:00 > 0:17:02BANGING, POPPING

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Everybody out! Everybody out!

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Water! More over here!

0:17:24 > 0:17:26Get the sacks out, the roof's about to go!

0:17:42 > 0:17:44What's he doing up there?

0:17:44 > 0:17:46We lose the barn, we lose everything.

0:18:17 > 0:18:18GENERAL CHATTER

0:18:25 > 0:18:30Joseph, bring those brooms over and let's get this sorted out.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Look sharp, men, the farmer's here.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Mr Oak, is that you?

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Perhaps you want a shepherd, ma'am?

0:18:58 > 0:19:01I owe you an immense debt, Mr Oak.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04If I'd have lost all of this, I'd have lost my farm.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06- Your farm?- My inheritance.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09My home, too, for a while when my parents died.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13When my uncle passed away, he left it to me.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18Of course, it's a little ragged now,

0:19:18 > 0:19:20but this once used to be the finest farm for miles.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22And I intend to make it so again.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Perhaps you find the idea preposterous.

0:19:27 > 0:19:28I no longer have that luxury.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33I'm truly sorry to hear of your loss, Mr Oak,

0:19:33 > 0:19:36but if our reversal of fortune causes you any embarrassment...

0:19:36 > 0:19:38Not at all, ma'am.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45Billy Smallbury? 9 and 8 pence.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Joseph Poorgrass?

0:19:49 > 0:19:52- Go on, Joseph.- Go on, lad.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54(Hat off!)

0:19:55 > 0:19:58- And what do you do, Joseph? - I does general things.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01And in spring, I shoot the rooks and help at pig killing, sir.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02I mean, ma'am.

0:20:04 > 0:20:057 and 9 pence.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07And another 9 because I'm new.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09Thank you, ma'am.

0:20:13 > 0:20:14Now, Fanny Robbin?

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Where is Fanny Robbin?

0:20:20 > 0:20:21Where is she?

0:20:22 > 0:20:25She's run away, ma'am.

0:20:25 > 0:20:29- She's gone off with a soldier, ma'am.- Not a soldier, a sergeant.

0:20:33 > 0:20:34Bailiff Pennyways?

0:20:39 > 0:20:42Here is 10 shillings and a further 10.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43Why?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47This ends our association. You are dismissed.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49I beg your pardon, miss?

0:20:49 > 0:20:52When my uncle was alive, this was a fine, productive farm.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55Since his death, it has fallen into ruin.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58- I can only assume...- Now, see here, miss. You can't get rid of people...

0:20:58 > 0:21:00I have resolved to have no bailiff.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02- I've decided to manage everything. - You can't just...

0:21:02 > 0:21:04- If you'll listen to me for a moment. - You need...

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Mr Pennyways, a fire threatened to destroy the barn

0:21:07 > 0:21:08and you are nowhere to be found.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16I have no use for a man like you, Mr Pennyways.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18You are dismissed.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Get out while you can, if I were you.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43Now, you've all met our new shepherd, Mr Oak.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45You understand your duties, Mr Oak?

0:21:46 > 0:21:48If I don't, I'll ask, ma'am.

0:21:53 > 0:21:57From now on, you have a mistress, not a master.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01I don't yet know my talents in farming, but I shall do my best.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04Don't suppose, because I'm a woman, I don't know the difference between

0:22:04 > 0:22:08bad goings-on and good. I shall be up before you're awake.

0:22:08 > 0:22:09I shall be a-field before you are up.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13It is my intention to astonish you all.

0:22:16 > 0:22:17Back to work, please.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38- Perhaps I should wait here?- No.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Nonsense, Liddy. You're my companion.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45- All of these?- All of them.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50Head high, Liddy. If they stare, do not hesitate.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00Remember, we have as much right to be here as anyone.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Good morning.

0:23:05 > 0:23:09CHATTER

0:23:11 > 0:23:14CHATTER DIES

0:23:21 > 0:23:24- Liddy, if you lay things out. - Yes, miss.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28Gentlemen, shall we get back to business?

0:23:38 > 0:23:42There you go, sir. If you feel it, you can feel the quality.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44- This is fine grain, miss.- Thank you.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Perhaps we should leave, miss.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54- But none of it as good as this lot. - It's good stuff,

0:23:54 > 0:23:55I'll grant you that.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57- Well, it's up to you. - If you want to go elsewhere...

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Farmer Stone?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01It's Miss Everdene - Farmer Everdene's niece.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06He talked about you with such great admiration.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Of course, you're welcome to try elsewhere,

0:24:10 > 0:24:13but I think you'll find the grain as good as it's ever been.

0:24:18 > 0:24:19- Mr Stone?- How much?

0:24:19 > 0:24:23- £5 a quarter.- £3, 10 shillings.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26It's the same grain, Mr Stone. You paid my uncle £5.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28£3, 10.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32This gentleman will pay me the proper price.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Apparently not, no.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39- £4.- £4, 10.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41£4, 5.

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Perhaps I should move on.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48- Liddy.- Yes?- Would you help me with this gentleman?- Of course.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Perhaps you'd like a sample?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53- How much?- £5 a quarter.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Very well.

0:24:57 > 0:24:58£4, 10.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03APPLAUSE

0:25:09 > 0:25:12# Jerusalem the golden

0:25:12 > 0:25:18# With milk and honey blest

0:25:18 > 0:25:23# Beneath thy contemplation

0:25:23 > 0:25:28# Sink heart and voice oppressed... #

0:25:29 > 0:25:35He's rich, he's handsome. He sends the local girls mad.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38The Taylor sisters worked on him for two years.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Jane Perkins spent £20 on new clothes

0:25:40 > 0:25:43and might as well have thrown the money out the window.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49It's said, when he was young, his sweetheart jilted him.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53People always say that.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57Women don't jilt men. Men jilt us.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59Did someone jilt you, miss?

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Certainly not.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08A man did ask to marry me once. Some time ago.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11But I was too restless to be tied down.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14What a luxury, to have a choice.

0:26:15 > 0:26:19"Kiss my foot, sir, my face is for mouths of consequence."

0:26:19 > 0:26:20It wasn't like that at all.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Why?

0:26:24 > 0:26:26Did you love him?

0:26:26 > 0:26:29No, but I rather liked him.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Anyway, it's impossible now.

0:26:38 > 0:26:39GUNSHOT

0:26:45 > 0:26:48- Mr Boldwood.- Don't shoot me, please.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50I had no intention of shooting you.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55It's Miss Everdene. Your neighbour.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Farmer Everdene's niece.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04I'm managing the farm alone now. Perhaps you've heard?

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Yes, I'm sure you'll do very well.

0:27:08 > 0:27:09In the circumstances.

0:27:12 > 0:27:16Well...as you say, we're neighbours.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19HORSE GALLOPS

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Look what I've got here.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33- What is it?- Listen to this...

0:27:33 > 0:27:35"The rose is red, The violet blue,

0:27:35 > 0:27:37"Carnation's sweet, And so are you."

0:27:39 > 0:27:41It's a Valentine's card.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43I'm going to send it to Joseph Poorgrass,

0:27:43 > 0:27:46just to see the look of panic on his stupid face.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49Poor boy. It's a little bit far-fetched, isn't it?

0:27:49 > 0:27:52What about...Mr Oak, then?

0:27:52 > 0:27:54No. Not Mr Oak.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Imagine if we sent it to Mr Boldwood.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02Ignoring you like that, all high and mighty.

0:28:02 > 0:28:03Mr Boldwood?

0:28:06 > 0:28:08- Perhaps not.- Why not?

0:28:08 > 0:28:11Cos I don't think he'll see the humour.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14Perhaps he wouldn't, perhaps it's too much.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18- Mr Boldwood.- You're right. Perhaps it is.

0:28:20 > 0:28:22- So we're going to toss for it. - Liddy!

0:28:22 > 0:28:23Come on.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30- Open...Joseph.- No, Jan Coggan.

0:28:30 > 0:28:33Open, Jan Coggan. Closed, Boldwood.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44- Sergeant Troy, 11 o'clock. - Yes, Sergeant Troy. And?

0:29:44 > 0:29:47- Miss Fanny Robbin. - Welcome. Step down the front.

0:30:20 > 0:30:23- WHISPERING:- Where is she? - I don't know.

0:30:23 > 0:30:25DOOR SLAMS SHUT

0:30:25 > 0:30:27(Here she comes.)

0:30:27 > 0:30:31HURRIED FOOTSTEPS

0:30:31 > 0:30:32Oh...

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Sorry I'm late, old boy.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Not long now.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09Dearly beloved, we are gathered here in the sight...

0:31:14 > 0:31:16I can only wait a few more minutes.

0:31:16 > 0:31:17She'll be here.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46(What do you think is happening?)

0:31:46 > 0:31:48(I don't think she's coming, old boy.)

0:32:17 > 0:32:20Come on. Go on, off you go. That's it. Go on.

0:32:20 > 0:32:22- Morning, my love.- Come on.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Jump in that!

0:32:26 > 0:32:27Bring them in, John.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34- Grab this one. - Miss Everdene's here now,

0:32:34 > 0:32:37so you better do your best work. I'm looking at you, Coggan.

0:32:37 > 0:32:40Yeah, you keep quiet, Liddy!

0:32:40 > 0:32:42MAN YELLS

0:32:47 > 0:32:48What you doing?!

0:32:51 > 0:32:53Perhaps you'd care to lend a hand?

0:32:54 > 0:32:56- You don't think I would? - No, you wouldn't.

0:32:58 > 0:32:59Come here.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05There, she's getting in!

0:33:05 > 0:33:07CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Well done, ma'am.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12- Coming your way. Coming your way. - Keep moving!

0:33:17 > 0:33:18I'll get it.

0:33:30 > 0:33:33Gangway through. Hey, Joseph. Joseph, look. Gangway.

0:33:44 > 0:33:47INDISTINCT CHATTER

0:33:55 > 0:33:58THEY LAUGH AND SHOUT

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Good morning, Mr Boldwood.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16Miss Everdene!

0:34:16 > 0:34:19Mr Boldwood wondered if he might have a word with you.

0:34:23 > 0:34:25Mr Boldwood.

0:34:25 > 0:34:26Of course.

0:34:27 > 0:34:32One thousand acres. A mix of arable and livestock.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34Adjacent to Everdene.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36An orchard. A glasshouse.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40I have some interesting pigs.

0:34:42 > 0:34:44Some other time, perhaps.

0:34:49 > 0:34:51Thank you.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03You have a very beautiful house.

0:35:09 > 0:35:10Mr Boldwood?

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Miss Everdene.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19I want...

0:35:19 > 0:35:21very much, more than anything...

0:35:23 > 0:35:25..to have you as my wife.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28Miss Everdene, marry me.

0:35:32 > 0:35:36I... I feel...

0:35:40 > 0:35:42Though I respect you very much...

0:35:45 > 0:35:47..I do not feel what would justify me...

0:35:51 > 0:35:52..in accepting your offer.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00I have known disappointments before...

0:36:02 > 0:36:05..but I would never have asked in this instance had I not been...

0:36:07 > 0:36:08..led to believe...

0:36:10 > 0:36:13Unless... Unless I am, er...mistaken.

0:36:15 > 0:36:16The Valentine.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20No, you're not mistaken, but I should never have sent it.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25Forgive me, it was thoughtless to disturb your peace of mind.

0:36:25 > 0:36:29- So you meant it as a joke? - No! No, not as a joke.

0:36:31 > 0:36:35Not exactly. It was...impetuous.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37I see.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Perhaps you think I am too old.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42But I will care for you more than anyone your own age.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45- I'm sure you would... - I will protect you.

0:36:45 > 0:36:48You shall have dresses,

0:36:48 > 0:36:51a gig. A piano.

0:36:55 > 0:36:56I amuse you?

0:36:58 > 0:37:00No.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03It's only...

0:37:03 > 0:37:04I have a piano.

0:37:06 > 0:37:08And I have my own farm.

0:37:10 > 0:37:12And I have no need for a husband,

0:37:12 > 0:37:14no matter how honoured I am by the offer.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23I think I'd like to return home.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25Yes. I'll, er...

0:37:26 > 0:37:29I'll get someone to drive you.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32Mr Boldwood, I've made you miserable.

0:37:32 > 0:37:34- It was very wicked of me. - Will you reconsider?

0:37:37 > 0:37:39Let me think.

0:37:42 > 0:37:43Yes.

0:37:44 > 0:37:46Yes, I'll give you time.

0:37:47 > 0:37:49I will wait.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16You're working late, Mr Oak.

0:38:20 > 0:38:21Will you teach me?

0:38:23 > 0:38:24Here.

0:38:26 > 0:38:28Spin the wheel.

0:38:28 > 0:38:29Incline it, like that.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33And slide it gently. Spin the wheel.

0:38:35 > 0:38:37Bit faster.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40Like that. Very good.

0:38:40 > 0:38:42- Now, slide it.- I... It's...

0:38:44 > 0:38:46..getting stuck.

0:38:53 > 0:38:57I wanted to ask, did the men say anything today about Mr Boldwood?

0:38:57 > 0:39:00- They did.- What did they say?

0:39:00 > 0:39:03That you'd be married before the end of the year.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05Go on.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Well, I'd like you to contradict it, to the men.

0:39:09 > 0:39:13- Well, Bathsheba... - Miss Everdene, please.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17If Mr Boldwood did really speak of marriage,

0:39:17 > 0:39:20I'm not going to tell stories, just to please you.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24I just said I wanted you to mention to the men

0:39:24 > 0:39:26that it might not be true I was going to marry him.

0:39:26 > 0:39:28I could say that, if you wish.

0:39:28 > 0:39:30But I could also give you an opinion on what you've done.

0:39:30 > 0:39:33I dare say, but I don't want your opinion, Mr Oak.

0:39:35 > 0:39:36I suppose not.

0:39:40 > 0:39:42HE SHARPENS A BLADE

0:39:48 > 0:39:51Well, what is your opinion?

0:39:51 > 0:39:52That you're greatly to blame

0:39:52 > 0:39:54for playing pranks on a man like Mr Boldwood.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00- Your actions were unworthy of you. - Unworthy?

0:40:01 > 0:40:04May I ask where my unworthiness lies?

0:40:04 > 0:40:09- In rejecting you, perhaps? - I've long given up thinking of that.

0:40:09 > 0:40:10Or wishing it, either.

0:40:13 > 0:40:14But I will say this.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17Leading on a man you don't care for is beneath you.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23I cannot allow a man to criticise my private conduct.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25You will please leave the farm at the end of the week.

0:40:33 > 0:40:35I'd prefer to go at once.

0:40:35 > 0:40:38Then, go. I never want to see your face again.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41Very well, Miss Everdene.

0:40:47 > 0:40:49DOOR SLAMS

0:41:17 > 0:41:19There we are. There.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25What's wrong with them?

0:41:25 > 0:41:26They broke fence and ate the young clover.

0:41:26 > 0:41:28Makes their stomachs swell.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33- What do we do now?- Nothing. The whole flock is blasted.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36- You mean they're all going to die? - Most probably.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39- Another one gone here, ma'am. - Only one way of saving them.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42You must pierce their side with a tool.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45A hollow tube. Prick her inside.

0:41:45 > 0:41:46Well, can you do it?

0:41:46 > 0:41:49- This one's still alive.- No.

0:41:49 > 0:41:52- Can I?- Oh, good Lord, no.

0:41:52 > 0:41:55One inch to the right or the left, and you kill the ewe for sure.

0:41:55 > 0:41:58Not even a shepherd can do it, as a rule.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Well, who, then?

0:42:16 > 0:42:18Gabriel!

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Gabriel!

0:42:21 > 0:42:23Gabriel Oak, wait!

0:42:24 > 0:42:26Miss Everdene needs you.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34Why are you alone? Did you find him?

0:42:34 > 0:42:37Yes, miss.

0:42:37 > 0:42:40So what did he say?

0:42:40 > 0:42:42He said...

0:42:42 > 0:42:44Joseph?

0:42:45 > 0:42:47He said you're to go in person and request him civilly,

0:42:47 > 0:42:50in a proper manner.

0:42:50 > 0:42:53Where does he get his airs? I'll do no such thing.

0:42:53 > 0:42:58He said you'd say that. He said to reply, "Beggars can't be choosers."

0:43:03 > 0:43:05GALLOPING HOOVES

0:43:18 > 0:43:19Mr Oak.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24Gabriel.

0:43:25 > 0:43:27Gabriel.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31Please don't desert me, Gabriel.

0:43:33 > 0:43:34I need your help.

0:43:54 > 0:43:55Make room for me!

0:44:23 > 0:44:28- I want to see.- No, you don't, Liddy. Be quiet.- Find the spot...

0:44:30 > 0:44:31..between the ribs.

0:44:34 > 0:44:35- Oh, Lord!- No, no, no, no, no.

0:44:35 > 0:44:37Now...

0:44:37 > 0:44:39I can see his heart beating.

0:44:41 > 0:44:43AIR HISSES

0:44:44 > 0:44:46- Come on.- Come on, girl.

0:44:46 > 0:44:48- Come on.- She'll be all right. She'll be all right.

0:44:48 > 0:44:51- You all right? You all right, Pixie?- Yeah, come on.

0:44:51 > 0:44:54All right, Pixie! Pixie!

0:44:54 > 0:44:55THEY LAUGH

0:44:55 > 0:44:56Hey! Come here!

0:45:03 > 0:45:05Hey, hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey!

0:45:05 > 0:45:07MAN WHISTLES

0:45:25 > 0:45:29# Lay me low

0:45:29 > 0:45:32# Lay me low

0:45:32 > 0:45:35# Where no-one can see me

0:45:36 > 0:45:40# Where no-one can find me

0:45:40 > 0:45:45# Where no-one can hurt me. #

0:45:45 > 0:45:48THEY CHEER

0:45:54 > 0:45:55Get out.

0:45:55 > 0:45:57Please, quiet.

0:45:59 > 0:46:05# Oh, early one morning as I was a-walking

0:46:07 > 0:46:13# The fields and the meadows, they looked so green and gay

0:46:13 > 0:46:16# The birds sang so sweetly

0:46:16 > 0:46:19# So pleasant and so charming

0:46:19 > 0:46:23# So early in the morning, at the break of day... #

0:46:23 > 0:46:26Miss. Mr Boldwood is here.

0:46:26 > 0:46:30Thank you. Thank you, Jan. Jan, thank you.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32THEY APPLAUD

0:46:33 > 0:46:37Mr Boldwood. What a pleasant surprise. Will you join us?

0:46:37 > 0:46:41THEY TALK AMONGST THEMSELVES

0:46:52 > 0:46:54Nice to have you, sir.

0:46:57 > 0:47:00- A song, ma'am.- I have no voice.

0:47:00 > 0:47:02Sing for us, miss!

0:47:02 > 0:47:05Come on, ma'am, you've got a lovely voice.

0:47:05 > 0:47:06THEY CHEER

0:47:16 > 0:47:21# Come all you fair and tender girls

0:47:21 > 0:47:27# That flourish in your prime

0:47:27 > 0:47:33# Beware, beware, keep your garden fair

0:47:33 > 0:47:38# Let no man steal your thyme

0:47:38 > 0:47:43# Let no man steal your thyme

0:47:44 > 0:47:50# For when your thyme, it is past and gone

0:47:50 > 0:47:56# He'll care no more for you

0:47:56 > 0:48:02# And every place where your thyme was waste

0:48:02 > 0:48:06# Will all spread o'er with rue

0:48:07 > 0:48:12# Will all spread o'er with rue

0:48:13 > 0:48:19# The gardener's son was standing by

0:48:19 > 0:48:23# Three flowers he gave to me

0:48:25 > 0:48:30- TOGETHER:- # The pink, the blue and the violet true

0:48:30 > 0:48:35# And the red, red rosy tree

0:48:36 > 0:48:40# And the red, red rosy tree

0:48:42 > 0:48:48# But I refused the red rose bush

0:48:48 > 0:48:52# And gained the willow tree

0:48:53 > 0:48:58# That all the world may plainly see

0:48:59 > 0:49:04# How my love slighted me

0:49:05 > 0:49:11# How my love slighted me... #

0:49:15 > 0:49:18I thought we were rather good together.

0:49:18 > 0:49:21- So did I.- We would make a fine duo.

0:49:22 > 0:49:23I wanted to thank you

0:49:23 > 0:49:25for not approaching me on that subject again.

0:49:27 > 0:49:30Well, it has not been easy.

0:49:38 > 0:49:42Do you wish me to...accompany you back to the house?

0:49:43 > 0:49:45No, I like to walk around the farm every night

0:49:45 > 0:49:48to make sure all is safe.

0:49:48 > 0:49:51Then I...I can walk with you.

0:49:51 > 0:49:54I've done it many times alone.

0:49:54 > 0:49:57Goodnight, Mr Boldwood. You've been very kind.

0:49:57 > 0:49:59A pleasure to see you.

0:50:30 > 0:50:32SHE GASPS

0:50:32 > 0:50:36- Who are you? - I'm sorry. I seem to be lost.

0:50:36 > 0:50:39We're entangled. Are you hurt?

0:50:39 > 0:50:41- No.- I'm looking for Weatherbury.

0:50:41 > 0:50:44- I hope I didn't startle you. - We've got hitched together somehow.

0:50:44 > 0:50:46Here, allow me.

0:50:46 > 0:50:50No. No. Please, let me do it myself.

0:50:50 > 0:50:52If you lift your foot for a moment...

0:51:06 > 0:51:07Please don't stare.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10I don't think I've ever seen a face as beautiful as yours.

0:51:14 > 0:51:18You shouldn't be here. Please, let me have the lamp.

0:51:28 > 0:51:31- MAN:- A mighty impressive harvest this looks like!

0:51:42 > 0:51:44Miss...

0:51:44 > 0:51:46Look.

0:51:49 > 0:51:53- Who is he, Liddy? - Sergeant Francis Troy.

0:51:53 > 0:51:56Noble blood, full of promise. Very sharp and trim.

0:51:57 > 0:52:01Well-educated. There was good things expected of him.

0:52:01 > 0:52:03He threw it all in to be a soldier.

0:52:05 > 0:52:07Well, I won't have it.

0:52:07 > 0:52:10- What are you doing, miss? - I'm going to tell him to leave.

0:52:15 > 0:52:17Sergeant Troy, I must absolutely insist

0:52:17 > 0:52:19that you leave at this very moment.

0:52:19 > 0:52:22- I can't.- Will you follow me, please?

0:52:42 > 0:52:43What angers you, exactly?

0:52:45 > 0:52:47- Please... - What I said or the way I said it?

0:52:47 > 0:52:49You must know.

0:52:49 > 0:52:53There must be some man who tells you that you're beautiful.

0:52:53 > 0:52:56- Not to my face, not...- But there is someone who kisses you?

0:52:56 > 0:52:57I've never been kissed.

0:53:03 > 0:53:07Why couldn't you have just passed by and said nothing?

0:53:08 > 0:53:09Do you forgive me?

0:53:11 > 0:53:13- I do not.- Why?

0:53:13 > 0:53:16Because...the things you say...

0:53:16 > 0:53:17I said that you were beautiful.

0:53:22 > 0:53:24I wonder if you fight as well as you speak.

0:53:24 > 0:53:26Better.

0:53:31 > 0:53:33Meet me.

0:53:33 > 0:53:36Tomorrow.

0:53:42 > 0:53:43(Nobody would know.)

0:53:46 > 0:53:49Please go now.

0:56:03 > 0:56:06The sword is blunt,

0:56:06 > 0:56:08but you must not flinch.

0:56:08 > 0:56:10I'll try not to.

0:56:55 > 0:56:56You cut my hair.

0:56:59 > 0:57:01This sword could skin you alive.

0:57:01 > 0:57:03- But you told me I was safe. - And you were.

0:57:05 > 0:57:06Entirely safe.

0:57:06 > 0:57:08I gave you my word.

0:58:36 > 0:58:39You should have nothing to do with him.

0:58:39 > 0:58:41He's not good enough for you.

0:58:41 > 0:58:44He's a perfectly decent man.

0:58:44 > 0:58:48- That's not what I believe. - Why? What have you heard?

0:58:50 > 0:58:53You don't know him at all. It's all rumours.

0:58:53 > 0:58:56Prejudice, simply because he's a soldier.

0:58:56 > 0:58:57I like soldiers. But not this one.

0:58:57 > 0:59:01I believe him to have no conscience at all.

0:59:01 > 0:59:04Stay clear. Don't listen to him. Don't believe him.

0:59:05 > 0:59:08- Get rid of him. - And what is it to you?

0:59:11 > 0:59:14I'm not such a fool as to imagine I might stand a chance

0:59:14 > 0:59:16now that you are so above me.

0:59:16 > 0:59:20But don't suppose I'm content to stay a nobody all my life.

0:59:20 > 0:59:23One day, I will leave you. You can be sure of that.

0:59:23 > 0:59:25But for now, I care for you too much

0:59:25 > 0:59:27to see you go to ruin because of him.

0:59:29 > 0:59:31So if you don't mind, I'll...

1:11:41 > 1:11:44..a joke about the parish.

1:11:44 > 1:11:48But I do want to make one thing clear.

1:11:48 > 1:11:50There was no jilting on her part.

1:11:58 > 1:12:00She promised me nothing.

1:14:30 > 1:14:33Darling, your hands are shaking.

1:14:33 > 1:14:36I thought you said All Souls, not All Saints.

1:14:36 > 1:14:39I went to the wrong church.

1:14:39 > 1:14:42When I got there, you'd gone. And I don't blame you,

1:14:42 > 1:14:45but it's been very hard, Frank. I...

1:14:45 > 1:14:46Not now.

1:14:48 > 1:14:50My wife mustn't see you.

1:15:28 > 1:15:30What if I told you that I'd made a terrible mistake...

1:15:32 > 1:15:34..but that I will make amends?

1:15:35 > 1:15:39I swear, on my life, I will find a home for you and our baby.

1:15:39 > 1:15:43- You've sworn before, Frank. - No, this time...this time...

1:15:51 > 1:15:53Go to Budmouth. Stay at the Union.

1:15:53 > 1:15:57- The workhouse, Frank? - Tonight, just tonight. One night.

1:17:46 > 1:17:49If you continue to gamble, we will lose the farm.

1:17:49 > 1:17:52- It's not for gambling. - What's it for?

1:17:52 > 1:17:54Why should it matter what it's for? It's my money.

1:17:54 > 1:17:57I work for it, don't I?

1:17:57 > 1:18:00No. You don't.

1:18:00 > 1:18:02Not proper farm work.

1:18:04 > 1:18:06Don't do something you'll regret.

1:18:08 > 1:18:11The money is required for farm expenses.

1:26:01 > 1:26:03- That's a great responsibility, sir. - Nonsense.

1:26:03 > 1:26:05No reason why a man of your ability

1:26:05 > 1:26:07shouldn't be able to superintend two farms.

1:26:21 > 1:26:23Of course, I wouldn't dare do anything without her blessing.

1:27:10 > 1:27:12Only with your approval.

1:27:12 > 1:27:16If I lose the farm, there may be no future for any of us here.

1:27:16 > 1:27:18You know where my loyalty lies.

1:27:21 > 1:27:23You're a man of great talent.

1:27:23 > 1:27:25It's only natural that you should rise,

1:28:07 > 1:28:10Mr Boldwood, that's a very kind offer,

1:28:10 > 1:28:13but I would never dream of accepting any money.

1:28:17 > 1:28:18I am a middle-aged man...

1:28:20 > 1:28:23..willing to protect you for the rest of your life.

1:28:26 > 1:28:29You may run your farm, if you wish, without risk.

1:28:32 > 1:28:34I'll pay your...

1:28:34 > 1:28:36departed husband's debts

1:28:36 > 1:28:38and guarantee its financial stability.

1:28:40 > 1:28:41It can be your pastime.

1:28:44 > 1:28:47Of course, we'd...need to wait,

1:28:47 > 1:28:50for propriety's sake.

1:28:50 > 1:28:52But when you're ready,

1:28:52 > 1:28:53I'm offering you shelter.

1:28:55 > 1:28:57Comfort.

1:28:57 > 1:28:58A safe harbour.

1:29:02 > 1:29:03As my wife.

1:29:08 > 1:29:10You must at least admire my persistence.

1:29:13 > 1:29:14I do.

1:29:14 > 1:29:16- And like me?- Yes.

1:29:18 > 1:29:20And...respect me?

1:29:20 > 1:29:23- Yes. Very much. - Which is it? Like or respect?

1:29:28 > 1:29:30It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings

1:29:30 > 1:29:33in a language chiefly made by men to express theirs.

1:29:33 > 1:29:36If you worry about a lack of passion on your part,

1:29:36 > 1:29:37a lack of, er...

1:29:40 > 1:29:42..desire,

1:29:42 > 1:29:47if you worry about marrying me merely out of guilt...

1:29:48 > 1:29:49..and, er...

1:29:51 > 1:29:53..pity...

1:29:53 > 1:29:56and compromise, well...

1:29:56 > 1:29:57I don't mind.

1:30:01 > 1:30:04- When must you give your answer? - By Christmas.

1:30:07 > 1:30:08It's a terrible responsibility.

1:30:11 > 1:30:14I hold that man's future in my hands.

1:30:14 > 1:30:16His sanity, too, perhaps.

1:30:16 > 1:30:19- Could you care for him? - You may suppose love is wanting.

1:30:21 > 1:30:24But love's a worn-out, miserable thing for me now.

1:30:24 > 1:30:26Why are you asking me?

1:30:30 > 1:30:33I need someone who's objective.

1:30:33 > 1:30:34Indifferent.

1:30:36 > 1:30:39Then I'm afraid you're asking the wrong man.

1:30:56 > 1:30:58Good evening, Mr Oak.

1:30:59 > 1:31:01Good evening.

1:31:18 > 1:31:20That's it.

1:31:30 > 1:31:33# Rejoice

1:31:33 > 1:31:36# Rejoice

1:31:36 > 1:31:40# Emmanuel

1:31:40 > 1:31:42# Shall come to thee

1:31:42 > 1:31:48# O, Israel

1:31:50 > 1:31:55# O, come, Thou Rod of Jesse... #

1:31:55 > 1:31:57I appreciate you coming along, Oak.

1:31:58 > 1:32:00Yes, very good. Well done.

1:32:00 > 1:32:03- Just more...more things. - Yes, sir.

1:32:07 > 1:32:10So...what do you think?

1:32:10 > 1:32:13I'm not in the habit of organising parties.

1:32:13 > 1:32:16Perhaps we should make it an annual event.

1:32:16 > 1:32:17Every Christmas Eve.

1:32:17 > 1:32:20I've invited the whole village. Do you think they'll come?

1:32:20 > 1:32:22Do you think Miss Everdene will come?

1:32:22 > 1:32:23I'm sure she will.

1:32:25 > 1:32:26Yes.

1:32:26 > 1:32:29And you'll come too, I hope?

1:32:29 > 1:32:32I know Miss Everdene would like you to be here.

1:32:32 > 1:32:33Perhaps, for an hour or so.

1:32:38 > 1:32:41Look, I'm shaking. I'm so nervous.

1:32:42 > 1:32:45Gabriel, will you...?

1:32:45 > 1:32:47- As well as you can, please. - I'll try.

1:32:47 > 1:32:50Is there a knot that's particularly fashionable?

1:32:52 > 1:32:54You're asking the wrong man.

1:32:56 > 1:32:58What about women?

1:32:58 > 1:33:00Does a woman keep her promise?

1:33:01 > 1:33:03She has promised?

1:33:03 > 1:33:05An implied promise.

1:33:07 > 1:33:10- Once again, I'm... - Will she do what's right?

1:33:13 > 1:33:15If it's not inconvenient to her.

1:33:16 > 1:33:18Oak, you've become quite cynical lately.

1:33:19 > 1:33:21She never promised that first time.

1:33:21 > 1:33:24Therefore she has never broken her promise.

1:33:24 > 1:33:26She hasn't promised this time either.

1:33:27 > 1:33:30But she will.

1:33:30 > 1:33:32Tonight. I know she will.

1:33:34 > 1:33:36And when she does...

1:33:41 > 1:33:45I wanted to tell you in advance, Gabriel...

1:33:46 > 1:33:49..because I...I believe I know your secret.

1:33:52 > 1:33:54I've seen you together.

1:33:56 > 1:33:58The way you speak to her.

1:34:00 > 1:34:01And watch her.

1:34:02 > 1:34:03And look after her.

1:34:05 > 1:34:06And I know her...

1:34:08 > 1:34:11..profound affection for you.

1:34:12 > 1:34:15You've behaved like a man,

1:34:15 > 1:34:20and as the successful rival, successful through your kindness,

1:34:20 > 1:34:21I wish to tell you...

1:34:23 > 1:34:25..I am profoundly grateful.

1:34:30 > 1:34:31The cook would like a word, sir.

1:34:58 > 1:35:02INDISTINCT CHATTER

1:35:21 > 1:35:24MUSIC PLAYS

1:35:37 > 1:35:41- With me, Joseph. - No, please don't. Liddy, don't.

1:35:47 > 1:35:50MUSIC DROWNS CONVERSATION

1:36:04 > 1:36:05Would you excuse me?

1:36:11 > 1:36:13I've come to say goodnight.

1:36:13 > 1:36:17Go back and talk to the poor things. You've broken their hearts.

1:36:18 > 1:36:20I don't suit this kind of affair.

1:36:21 > 1:36:23No. Nor do I.

1:36:24 > 1:36:25I wish I could go too.

1:36:28 > 1:36:30MUSIC STOPS

1:36:30 > 1:36:31APPLAUSE

1:36:35 > 1:36:38- I must go.- Not before you've danced.

1:36:38 > 1:36:40Both of you. I insist.

1:36:44 > 1:36:45Mr Oak?

1:36:48 > 1:36:49Thank you.

1:36:51 > 1:36:53MUSIC STARTS UP

1:37:17 > 1:37:18Tell me what to do.

1:37:24 > 1:37:25Gabriel?

1:37:32 > 1:37:33Do what is right.

1:37:37 > 1:37:39Sorry, excuse me.

1:38:23 > 1:38:24Frank.

1:38:26 > 1:38:27Black suits you.

1:38:29 > 1:38:31Although a little premature.

1:38:36 > 1:38:39You're alive.

1:38:39 > 1:38:42And here I am. Pulled from the sea.

1:38:42 > 1:38:46Some fishermen found me and brought me to shore.

1:38:46 > 1:38:50Then I discovered I was dead and found I preferred it.

1:38:51 > 1:38:53For a while, anyway.

1:38:53 > 1:38:57- Why have you come back? - The strangest thing.

1:38:57 > 1:38:58I missed you.

1:39:00 > 1:39:03You don't seem very happy to see me.

1:39:03 > 1:39:05You said I was nothing to you.

1:39:05 > 1:39:07Did I?

1:39:09 > 1:39:11Well, then.

1:39:11 > 1:39:14Honesty at all times.

1:39:14 > 1:39:15I find myself in need of money.

1:39:17 > 1:39:20I gave up my profession for you, and it seems a little harsh

1:39:20 > 1:39:24that you have a farm and a house while I'm living off nothing.

1:39:24 > 1:39:27- There is no money. - Then, sell the farm.

1:39:38 > 1:39:39Come home.

1:39:44 > 1:39:45No.

1:39:47 > 1:39:51I said, come home.

1:39:53 > 1:39:55I'm your husband and you'll obey me!

1:40:53 > 1:40:55DOOR CLANGS SHUT

1:41:38 > 1:41:39Let me see.

1:41:42 > 1:41:45If it's any consolation, his life will be spared.

1:41:47 > 1:41:49Crime of passion.

1:42:15 > 1:42:16Morning, Liddy.

1:42:18 > 1:42:22It's a fine harvest, ma'am. Best we've had in years.

1:42:22 > 1:42:23Will we have it all over before the dew?

1:42:23 > 1:42:26We will indeed, ma'am. Luck's been on our side.

1:42:32 > 1:42:34Come, Liddy, give me a hand.

1:42:41 > 1:42:42HE SHOUTS INSTRUCTIONS

1:43:00 > 1:43:01I'm sorry I startled you.

1:43:03 > 1:43:07I wanted to tidy up for them. I haven't been here for so long.

1:43:10 > 1:43:12Are you going in?

1:43:12 > 1:43:15Rehearsals. I sing bass in the choir.

1:43:15 > 1:43:16Yes, I've heard you.

1:43:18 > 1:43:20Then I apologise.

1:43:23 > 1:43:27I've been hoping to get a chance to talk to you.

1:43:27 > 1:43:30We've...we've not spoken as much as I'd have liked.

1:43:32 > 1:43:33No.

1:43:41 > 1:43:43I'm leaving England.

1:43:47 > 1:43:48Leaving?

1:43:50 > 1:43:51Going to America.

1:43:53 > 1:43:57There's a boat leaving Bristol in four days' time. I'll be on it.

1:43:57 > 1:44:00Now that the farm is secure.

1:44:00 > 1:44:03I understand I should give you notice.

1:44:05 > 1:44:07No.

1:44:07 > 1:44:08You must go when you want.

1:44:12 > 1:44:15I'll leave first thing tomorrow. No fuss.

1:44:17 > 1:44:19I think that's best.

1:45:09 > 1:45:10SHE SIGHS

1:45:15 > 1:45:16GEORGE YELPS

1:46:02 > 1:46:03Gabriel!

1:46:08 > 1:46:09Gabriel.

1:46:10 > 1:46:11Wait.

1:46:28 > 1:46:30You'll think I'm strange, but...

1:46:32 > 1:46:34..I've been worried. Have I offended you somehow?

1:46:34 > 1:46:36No, not at all.

1:46:37 > 1:46:39Is it money?

1:46:39 > 1:46:41I'll pay you whatever you want.

1:46:41 > 1:46:44I don't need money now.

1:46:44 > 1:46:45A formal partnership, then?

1:46:45 > 1:46:48Nor a partnership.

1:46:48 > 1:46:49The farm belongs to you alone.

1:46:49 > 1:46:52It's the finest farm for miles around.

1:46:52 > 1:46:54Then why else are you leaving?

1:46:54 > 1:46:56I said I'd leave you one day.

1:47:00 > 1:47:01Well, you must not go.

1:47:03 > 1:47:06- You forbid me? - Yes, if you like.

1:47:06 > 1:47:08I forbid you.

1:47:10 > 1:47:14It's time for you to fight your own battles.

1:47:14 > 1:47:15And win them, too.

1:47:18 > 1:47:20So we should say goodbye, then?

1:47:22 > 1:47:23I suppose so.

1:47:34 > 1:47:35Gabriel, wait.

1:47:39 > 1:47:41Thank you, Gabriel.

1:47:43 > 1:47:46You've believed in me and fought for me...

1:47:46 > 1:47:49and stood by my side when all the rest of the world is against me.

1:47:51 > 1:47:54And we've been through so much together.

1:47:58 > 1:48:00Wasn't I your first sweetheart?

1:48:03 > 1:48:04Weren't you mine?

1:48:10 > 1:48:13And now I'd have to go on without you.

1:48:17 > 1:48:19If I knew...

1:48:24 > 1:48:28If I knew that you would let me love you and marry you...

1:48:28 > 1:48:30But you will never know.

1:48:32 > 1:48:33Why not?

1:48:34 > 1:48:37Because you never ask!

1:48:37 > 1:48:39Would you say no again?

1:48:41 > 1:48:42I don't know.

1:48:44 > 1:48:46Probably.

1:48:46 > 1:48:48THEY LAUGH

1:48:52 > 1:48:53So why don't you?

1:48:56 > 1:48:57Ask me.

1:49:01 > 1:49:02Ask me.

1:49:07 > 1:49:09Ask me, Gabriel.

1:51:49 > 1:51:54# Come all you fair and tender girls

1:51:55 > 1:52:00# That flourish in your prime

1:52:01 > 1:52:03# Beware, beware

1:52:03 > 1:52:05# Keep your garden fair

1:52:06 > 1:52:11# Let no man steal your thyme

1:52:12 > 1:52:17# Let no man steal your thyme. #
