00:01:41	{girl} Papa?
00:01:43	{man} Hmm?
00:01:44	- {girl} Tell me a story.
00:01:48	{girl} I don't know. About everything.
00:01:51	{man} Everything?
00:01:54	Very well, then.
00:02:06	In Tierra del Fuego, land of fire...
00:02:11	...a blighted and loveless country
00:02:16	lives a community
00:02:20	least civilised people
00:02:24	They appeared almost entirely naked
00:02:27	with their hair
00:02:30	They never washed their hands
00:02:37	One day, Captain Fitzroy
00:03:05	Thank you.
00:03:11	Not long now. I shall be with you
00:03:16	Very good. Now, very still, please.
00:03:19	And above all, no smiling.
00:03:24	- Excuse me, sir?
00:03:26	- Will this hurt?
00:03:30	It is only a beam of light.
00:03:38	- Papa?
00:03:39	How can light make a picture?
00:03:42	Well, they take a copper plate
00:03:45	and these chemicals are activated
00:03:48	by the light that reflects back
00:03:51	and so the silver
00:03:55	sticks to the places where the light
00:04:00	- Yes.
00:04:01	- Sorry. So sorry.
00:04:04	- Go on. He went ashore to meet them.
00:04:08	So, arm, Captain Fitzroy went ashore
00:04:12	Now.
00:04:14	{Darwin} He offered them
00:04:17	and very pretty buttons.
00:04:18	Total value, probably two shillings.
00:04:21	{Fitzroy} This is yours. You take it.
00:04:24	Look how it... Look how it glisters.
00:04:31	{Darwin} And all he asked in return?
00:04:34	A few spare children.
00:04:38	You give me el Nina.
00:04:42	{Darwin} To the Feigns, children
00:04:47	so it wasn't long
00:04:50	and Captain Fitzroy
00:04:53	He named them Boat Memory...
00:04:56	...Jemmy Button and Foggia Basket.
00:05:02	{children scream}
00:05:08	{man}
00:05:10	{men shout}
00:05:17	{Jemmy yells}
00:05:19	{Darwin} The good captain
00:05:23	and he taught them
00:05:55	{food bounces}
00:06:03	Boat Memory died of smallpox,
00:06:06	they learned their prayers
00:06:11	that they were invited
00:06:37	Everyone agreed
00:06:41	had tamed the most savage of hearts.
00:06:43	The King gave Jemmy
00:06:46	and the Queen gave Foggia one of her
00:06:52	Two years later,
00:06:55	accompanied by a young missionary,
00:07:00	they would bring their fellow savages
00:07:04	And what do you think happened?
00:07:09	It didn't work.
00:07:10	That's right. Of course it didn't work!
00:07:13	{children shout}
00:07:17	- Go after them, you fool! Get them now.
00:07:21	- Put your clothes back on! Come back!
00:07:25	{Darwin}
00:07:28	- {chuckles}
00:07:32	Quite still, didn't I say?
00:07:37	- {click}
00:07:41	{chuckles}
00:07:47	{clock chimes}
00:08:23	- {woman} Mr Darwin, sir?
00:08:26	Come on, Mr Darwin,
00:08:31	{children chatter}
00:08:42	Mr D will be in presently, ma'am.
00:08:47	- Thank you, Mrs Davies.
00:08:50	- He's always unwell these days.
00:08:55	{Frankie} Maybe he caught something awful
00:08:58	{boy} Nanny Broody said
00:09:01	- Broody said no such thing.
00:09:04	- Good evening.
00:09:08	Sorry I'm so late.
00:09:14	Soup du jour, sir.
00:09:17	- {sniggers}
00:09:25	{Emma} Lord God, bless this family
00:09:28	- We ask in Thy name. Amen.
00:09:38	I hear Mr Hooker is coming tomorrow.
00:09:41	Yes. Yes, that's right.
00:09:46	Did he say what it was about?
00:09:50	I'm not sure
00:09:53	Perhaps the time to discuss it
00:09:57	Well, quite possibly, but he...
00:10:06	Sorry.
00:10:08	Tell Mrs Davies it was delicious,
00:10:13	My stomach's still not quite what it...
00:10:21	{door closes}
00:10:23	- {boy} Can we go fishing?
00:10:27	{Darwin} October 17th, 1858.
00:10:30	Passed a poor night.
00:10:34	Noticed a slight tremor in right hand.
00:10:38	Consider increasing laudanum
00:10:41	{Darwin} We'll sacrifice the two
00:10:46	{Par slow} Yes, sir.
00:10:47	{Darwin} Selective breeding
00:10:50	Already seeing real changes
00:10:54	I'm convinced that all fancy breeds,
00:10:58	derive from the common rock pigeon.
00:11:02	Nature selects for survival,
00:11:11	Must improve skeletonising methods.
00:11:18	They'll need a few more hours,
00:11:21	{horses approach}
00:11:30	{children shout excitedly}
00:11:32	Master George! Master Frankie! Lady Jetty
00:11:39	- Sir?
00:11:43	Anything else, sir?
00:11:44	No, no, no, you... carry on.
00:11:48	{boy} Is it true that he only let you go
00:11:52	Absolutely true, George,
00:11:56	- Dear Joseph.
00:12:00	- {door closes}
00:12:05	- You know Thomas Huxley?
00:12:08	- He insisted on coming.
00:12:11	I have a question
00:12:14	and I didn't trust Hooker
00:12:17	I see. Children, tell Papa
00:12:21	- He already knows.
00:12:24	Do come in, please.
00:12:25	{boy}
00:12:28	You must be exhausted.
00:12:30	Hooker! My dear fellow!
00:12:36	{Hooker} Lead the charge, boys.
00:13:00	{Huxley}
00:13:02	The committee will comprise of myself,
00:13:05	Lyell, Hooker, yourself, of course,
00:13:08	Now that Hooker
00:13:11	we can start to reclaim science
00:13:14	Wrest it away from the country parsons
00:13:17	- Some of whom are friends.
00:13:21	No, it won't. There is no book.
00:13:23	There are fragments, and they're not
00:13:26	{Huxley} I've read your abstract
00:13:30	Clear evidence of transformation
00:13:33	from a free-swimming prawn
00:13:37	That's my point. You can't be sure of
00:13:41	- Mr Darwin, sir?
00:13:44	Either you are being disingenuous or you
00:13:49	Evidently, what is true of the barnacle
00:13:54	The Almighty can no longer claim to have
00:13:59	You've killed God, sir.
00:14:02	You have killed God.
00:14:04	{Hooker} Or to put it another way...
00:14:07	{Huxley} And I say good riddance
00:14:10	- {Hooker} Charles? Charles?
00:14:14	- Thomas, please.
00:14:17	It is time to write your book.
00:14:19	Strike hard and fast
00:14:23	{Darwin} Really, sir, you...
00:14:25	You talk as if we're at war.
00:14:27	Yes. Science is at war with religion,
00:14:31	we'll finally be rid of
00:14:34	and their threats of eternal punishment.
00:14:37	No, Mr Huxley, we...
00:14:39	We live in a society and it is a society
00:14:46	An improbable sort of barque,
00:14:51	It floats. And you would what?
00:14:53	You would have us all rebuild,
00:14:57	the very vessel in which we sail?
00:14:59	Oh, come, come, Charles! Did...
00:15:06	Was Jenny the ape any less personable
00:15:11	Our behaviour, like our physical forms,
00:15:16	Your very own words, sir!
00:15:17	And thus, in time, we lose those parts
00:15:24	Like the appendix, the male nipple,
00:15:28	our belief
00:15:40	Mr Hooker?
00:15:44	I... implore you,
00:15:49	No one can push Charles.
00:15:53	- Bit of a barnacle himself, really.
00:15:56	And if you prise him from his rock,
00:15:59	Come on, Hooker. It'll be dark soon.
00:16:05	{dogs bark}
00:16:15	- {door closes}
00:16:20	She said it was killing him.
00:16:24	Yes. Mighty slow death considering the
00:16:28	{blows nose}
00:16:30	We shall all be dead and buried
00:16:33	{Hooker} Yes, since his girl died,
00:16:35	one has to admit...
00:16:46	{vomits}
00:16:51	{splutters}
00:16:56	{dog barks}
00:17:03	{spits}
00:17:39	When are you going to be done
00:17:43	{Darwin} Well, I've been chasing
00:17:47	in all of its evolutionary forms
00:17:52	Now, eight years doesn't seem a very
00:17:56	What does "procrastinating" mean?
00:18:01	Oh, I think you know very well
00:18:05	It means putting things off. Why?
00:18:08	{Annie} That's what Mr Hooker
00:18:11	Does he indeed?
00:18:14	Is it because of Mama
00:18:19	Both.
00:18:24	- I should probably just burn the lot.
00:18:29	Don't be absurd! Of course you're not.
00:18:31	- What do you mean?
00:18:36	- Oh, that.
00:18:43	- Yes, that's right.
00:18:45	Look at my finger.
00:18:49	Oh, you're so strong! You're so strong!
00:18:56	{gentle piano music}
00:18:59	- Here. Annie.
00:19:14	{blows raspberries}
00:19:19	I think that will not help her sleep.
00:19:21	I'm sure you're probably right.
00:19:25	Who's that?
00:19:28	Who is that? Is that you?
00:19:30	{growls}
00:19:36	- {Annie cries}
00:19:40	- Oh, what a mean old papa you have.
00:19:44	Oh, sweetheart! {chuckles}
00:19:46	Oh, what a mean old papa you have!
00:19:50	What a mean old...
00:19:51	What a mean old man you have!
00:19:54	Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
00:19:58	"Six weeks: gurgles."
00:20:01	"Tries to suck.

00:20:07	I should add that she's musical.
00:20:09	I hope you do not plan to treat all our
00:20:14	to be included in your experiments.
00:20:17	All of our children?
00:20:20	{Annie cries}
00:20:22	Oh, sorry. I assumed.
00:20:24	No, if the idea doesn't appeal,
00:20:28	Darling, I have plans to breed
00:20:34	Look at that. That's called the waltz.
00:20:38	{children laugh}
00:20:44	Careful, now! Not too far ahead.
00:20:48	- Make yourself useful, Hooker.
00:20:51	Fear not, Broody,
00:20:57	Now, which of the four of you
00:20:59	would be the first who would
00:21:03	{children} Me! Me!
00:21:04	{Emma} "A little further on,
00:21:08	like a setting Spaniel,
00:21:10	and then made a signal to his party
00:21:14	"He stooped down upon all fours,
00:21:18	- Look what I found, Mama.
00:21:21	- What shall I feed it?
00:21:24	Oh, arm...
00:21:26	A leaf, I should think.
00:21:31	- Rather a splendid specimen.
00:21:36	He eats carrion and insects.
00:21:39	Boys! We need carrion and insects!
00:21:42	{gasps}
00:21:45	- {girl} An earwig! Squish it!
00:21:49	I know that expression.
00:21:51	He's dreaming of his glory days when he
00:21:56	Free to wander the planet.
00:21:59	Actually, I was...
00:22:04	teemed with living particles
00:22:05	that seemed to surround the Beagle
00:22:09	and leave a glistening pathway
00:22:28	{birds sing}
00:22:33	Puzzling.
00:22:37	So little purpose? They were helping
00:22:42	Well said. Exactly.
00:22:45	John, are you familiar
00:22:49	- He married his first cousin.
00:22:53	- Yes, but I wasn't suggesting that...
00:22:58	Anyway,
00:23:02	well, if every trout, say,
00:23:05	and so on and so forth
00:23:08	we'd be knee-deep in trout
00:23:12	How would you respond to that?
00:23:14	I'd respond by saying that
00:23:18	so that the numbers remain stable.
00:23:23	It doesn't strike you
00:23:25	these myriad lives created
00:23:29	- They provide food for others.
00:23:32	Thousands die
00:23:35	Is not the sum total of happiness
00:23:40	Charles, it is really not my duty
00:23:43	but it does seem to me
00:23:47	{Hooker sighs}
00:23:49	There is another view.
00:23:54	Remind me where I read that.
00:23:59	- {Innes} This is very good.
00:24:03	Hmm, please do.

00:26:18	{Emma} He is a little unwell
00:26:22	{George} You said that last night.
00:26:26	I think when Annie died,
00:26:30	No, Jetty.
00:26:32	He's just a little bit tired
00:26:46	Goodnight, darling.
00:27:18	- What are you doing, Annie?
00:27:25	But I need to think.
00:27:29	What are you so scared of?
00:27:35	- It's only a theory.
00:27:40	It changes everything.
00:27:44	Suppose the whole world
00:27:47	that God had any sort of plan for us.
00:27:51	That nothing mattered.
00:27:54	Not faith, not honour.
00:27:58	Only brute survival.
00:28:04	Apart from anything else,
00:28:08	Hearts can't break, silly.
00:28:17	Breathe in, Papa. Breathe out.
00:28:24	- Tell me a story.
00:28:28	About Jenny.
00:28:32	- It's late. I have no time.
00:28:37	- Why Jenny? It's so sad.
00:28:42	{wind whistles}
00:28:46	Once upon a time,
00:28:48	there was a family of orang-utans
00:28:51	living in the deepest jungles
00:28:54	{birds sing}
00:29:03	Their eldest daughter
00:29:08	and the most trusting orange of all.
00:29:15	But she was also the most...
00:29:17	Intelligent.
00:29:19	Well, I was going to say inquisitive.
00:29:24	Did I neglect to mention
00:29:28	the most obedient of creatures?

00:30:23	By the time she realised her danger,

00:30:34	They put her in a bag
00:30:36	Much to her loving parents' despair.
00:30:39	So sorry. Much to her loving parents'
00:30:44	bundled her into a cage
00:30:50	They sold her to a trader
00:30:54	and he put her in a bigger cage and sold
00:31:02	{orang-utan squeaks}
00:31:06	She was the first orang-utan
00:31:12	Everyone peered at Jenny,
00:31:16	and she marvelled
00:31:22	The curators of the zoo, they...
00:31:28	...made her presentable
00:31:36	Which was when

00:33:38	{chuckles} Bravo!
00:33:41	When eventually
00:33:45	she grew quite downcast
00:33:49	Finally, she took it, but only after
00:33:53	I was never able to keep:
00:33:57	very soon.
00:34:01	Go on. Tell me about the bit
00:34:06	- Why do you want to hear that bit?
00:34:31	{waves crash}
00:34:36	{door opens}
00:34:46	Huxley is of the opinion
00:34:50	Says it's a question
00:34:54	Or rather my lack of it.
00:34:58	Did you tell him about your health?
00:35:00	His theory is that I'm making myself ill
00:35:05	and... that I should lance the boil,
00:35:09	Thank the Lord he's no longer a surgeon.
00:35:14	I have concluded that he's right.
00:35:18	You know, bite the gag.
00:35:23	It will all be over
00:35:28	It is not mere months...
00:35:32	...nor even years nor decades
00:35:36	{sighs}
00:35:39	Do you really care...
00:35:42	...so little for your immortal soul?
00:35:45	Charles... do you not care
00:35:49	that you may never pass
00:35:52	and that you and I may be separated
00:35:55	Well, of course I care. Of course I do.
00:36:00	What do you think has kept me in limbo
00:36:04	I am a neuter bee.
00:36:08	I'm a scientist, and I dare not study
00:36:11	for the fear of seeing more clearly
00:36:19	Do you not think that's torture enough?
00:36:21	I think you are at war with God,
00:36:26	We both know
00:36:40	{sighs}
00:36:43	{children chatter excitedly}
00:36:48	- {Darwin} Give me the ball!
00:36:50	- Curse you, woman!
00:36:53	{Emma} Jetty!
00:37:00	{Darwin} Jetty, Jetty, Jetty!
00:37:06	{Emma shrieks}
00:37:26	- Were you never married, Broody?
00:37:31	He went off to Australia.
00:37:35	I shall never marry.
00:37:38	I know how men give you babies.
00:37:40	I sincerely hope you do not,
00:37:47	Everybody step back
00:37:49	If you look at it, really look at it,
00:37:53	See these greyish, muddy layers?
00:37:57	They were brought here
00:38:01	whereas these dramatic
00:38:04	are telling us of huge storms,
00:38:06	storms that came through here
00:38:10	when Aunt Sarah was just a little girl
00:38:12	and Down Village
00:38:16	- What's a dinosaur?
00:38:19	- Professor Owen invented them.
00:38:22	- They weren't real!
00:38:25	Put some clothes on! You're going blue.
00:38:27	Look what I found! Spiny starfish!
00:38:33	Marthasterias gavials, look!
00:38:35	Glacial is.
00:38:38	{Annie} Whoo! Whoo!
00:38:44	I am Fuegian!
00:38:51	{yells}
00:38:54	I'm making custard!
00:38:57	{yells}
00:39:04	{Annie} He did, he told me!
00:39:06	{Innes} It is not fair to the other
00:39:11	that her head be filled
00:39:13	- But Daddy said!
00:39:16	- He did, he told me!
00:39:18	{Innes} Goodbye, Annie.
00:39:20	- {Annie sobs}
00:39:22	Nothing.
00:39:24	Your knees.
00:39:27	Reverend Innes
00:39:29	What happened to her knees?
00:39:31	Reverend Innes sent me to the corner
00:39:39	- Why?
00:39:42	and he said there weren't.
00:39:45	- Where's my coat?
00:39:49	{Darwin} Where's my coat?
00:39:52	He told her to kneel until she repented,
00:39:54	so the marks are a result
00:39:57	- She contradicted him repeatedly.
00:40:02	How dare he torture our children
00:40:05	- It is not the truth as he sees it.
00:40:08	{Annie sobs}
00:40:13	Must our children be revolutionaries
00:40:16	He is teaching them to deny
00:40:20	No more than I have told them
00:40:22	It is the instruction
00:40:25	It's what all of the village believe,
00:40:28	Charles, Reverend Innes
00:40:32	Please, do not set yourself against him.
00:40:40	I beg you.
00:40:49	For you.
00:40:52	Not for him.
00:41:01	¶ All things bright and beautiful
00:41:07	¶ All things wise and wonderful
00:41:10	¶ The Lord God made them all
00:41:17	Let us pray.
00:41:27	Lord God... we know the world
00:41:35	...extending to the merest creatures
00:41:39	such that even a sparrow falls
00:41:46	Teach us that all misfortune,
00:41:52	all the trials and miseries
00:41:58	...are intended for our good...
00:42:02	...being not the whims
00:42:07	...but the corrections of a wise...
00:42:15	Teach us this in Thy name, O Lord.
00:42:20	- Amen.
00:42:25	The lesson today is taken
00:42:29	- Chapter one, verses 26 to 30.
00:42:33	- {Darwin} Excuse me. I'm so sorry.
00:42:37	"Let us make man in our image,
00:42:42	"And let them have dominion
00:42:46	and over the fowl of the air, and over
00:42:50	and over every creeping thing
00:43:01	{Darwin} Dearest Emma, last night
00:43:06	but truly it is nothing so dramatic
00:43:09	just a silent struggle with myself
00:43:16	The loss of religious faith
00:43:19	like the raising of continents.
00:43:23	What can I say to you except that
00:43:28	{birds sing}
00:43:38	{birds sing}
00:43:50	{bird caws}
00:44:02	{bird chirps}
00:44:07	{bird caws}
00:44:18	{bird chirps}
00:44:47	{wings flap}
00:44:58	- {whispers} What are we looking at?
00:45:12	Stay very still.
00:45:30	{rabbit squeals}
00:45:32	{Jetty} Make it stop.
00:45:33	Quickly, Daddy, make it stop.
00:45:36	- Quickly!
00:45:39	- Daddy, make it stop.
00:45:41	- {cries}
00:45:44	- Dear sweet girl.
00:45:49	- It's not fair!
00:45:53	- {Jetty} Not fair.
00:45:56	Jetty, it has to be that way.
00:46:00	The fox has to eat the rabbit,
00:46:07	It's the balance of things.
00:46:12	Come on, little duck. Give us a smile.
00:46:17	{laughs}
00:46:20	- {children laugh}
00:46:33	{Darwin}
00:46:39	I think I owe it to my children
00:46:41	to at least have the courage
00:46:44	My title will be
00:46:48	and I shall endeavour
00:46:53	although no doubt
00:47:00	Nothing is easier
00:47:03	of the universal struggle for life,
00:47:06	or more difficult
00:47:11	I shall devote my first chapter
00:47:15	wherein we will see
00:47:20	in accumulating slight variations.
00:47:22	I will then pass on to see how natural
00:47:28	...of the less-improved forms of life.
00:47:52	- {Emma} Charles?
00:47:57	What is Lewis making?
00:48:00	He's making a water tower
00:48:06	The writing's not been going well, so I
00:48:12	You're still angry with me.
00:48:15	I can always tell by your playing.
00:48:19	Not angry. Sad.
00:48:35	{plays slow introduction}
00:48:45	{plays softly}
00:48:56	{plays loudly}
00:49:18	Pull.
00:49:22	{Darwin} The face of nature
00:49:27	with 10,000 sharp wedges
00:49:30	and then driven inwards
00:49:33	Sometimes one wedge being struck
00:49:36	The mind cannot possibly grasp
00:49:40	a hundred million years.
00:49:41	It cannot add up and perceive the full
00:49:46	We forget how largely these songsters
00:49:51	are destroyed
00:49:54	Thus, over tens of thousands
00:49:57	tiny variations accumulate.
00:50:00	Organs change their very function.
00:50:03	The female sexual organ
00:50:06	Limbs become blind feelers
00:50:12	What was once a free-swimming creature
00:50:15	finds itself glued by its head
00:50:21	Papa!
00:50:23	{gasps}
00:50:26	{gasps}
00:50:32	{clock ticks}
00:51:08	Why is sweating
00:51:10	Because it gets rid of the poisons
00:51:15	- I thought you didn't believe in sin.
00:51:19	Not in the way Reverend Innes
00:51:23	Then why are you afraid
00:51:26	- I'm not.
00:51:29	- You think you deserve it.
00:51:31	Of course I don't.
00:51:35	Because you think
00:51:41	Oh, for God's sake, girl.
00:51:44	Oh, I don't have to listen
00:51:47	You're cruel. You're just being cruel.
00:51:52	That's why you won't talk to Mama
00:51:55	Enough of this. I talk to her.
00:51:58	Not about the important things.
00:52:00	- Why must everything be about you?
00:52:04	- What?
00:52:11	Get out of here.
00:52:15	You get out of here. Get out of here.
00:52:19	You said honesty was
00:52:22	If you won't be honest, I won't
00:52:26	Get out! Please, get out! Get out!
00:52:41	You have not been well for months now.
00:52:44	I'll be fine. I'm fine.
00:52:47	- Will you talk to John Innes?
00:52:51	- Whatever it is that ails you.
00:52:55	- He's a physician, is he?
00:53:00	{scoffs}
00:53:03	{Emma} Talk to him as a friend.
00:53:10	I think he can help you.
00:53:16	{quiet chatter}
00:53:34	{wings flap}
00:53:37	{pigeons coo}
00:53:46	- {faint chatter}
00:53:51	Little 'un coming through.
00:53:53	I was just explaining to Mr Goodman
00:53:57	Oh, good. Excellent.
00:53:58	Mr Goodman is our foremost pigeon
00:54:03	I swear, he can give you any beak
00:54:07	- {Darwin} What's your secret?
00:54:11	Brother and sister, cousin with cousin.
00:54:14	It's the fastest way
00:54:16	There's a danger that you'll weaken it,
00:54:21	I'm sure you can afford
00:54:25	{laughter}
00:54:27	{doctor}
00:54:30	{Broody} Down you go.
00:54:33	Keep her warm.
00:54:34	- Thank you, Doctor.
00:54:37	- {Annie} Goodbye.
00:54:43	Unfortunately,
00:54:46	we have to expect the consequences,
00:54:50	- So, increase the calomel to twice...
00:54:54	- Why not?
00:54:56	- Can you not see she's not...
00:54:59	- I've prescribed it often in babies.
00:55:02	- If she would submit to being bled...
00:55:08	- I will write to Dr Gully again.
00:55:11	I have found his treatments
00:55:14	- No matter that they defy logic?
00:55:18	Clearly not.
00:55:20	- I'll see myself out. Good day, madam.
00:55:27	{door closes}
00:55:28	I should take her to Malvern
00:55:31	It is better she's here.
00:55:32	She needs her family.
00:55:37	She'll get well.
00:55:41	One more week.
00:55:44	We'll watch her for one more week.
00:55:49	Thank you.
00:55:51	{clock ticks}
00:56:24	{muffled cries}

00:57:25	{birds screech}
00:57:32	{Darwin screams}
00:57:53	{children chatter}
00:57:59	Post for you, sir.
00:58:02	This one's from the Spice Islands.
00:58:14	{door closes}
00:58:22	{chuckles}
00:58:31	{chuckles}
00:58:36	{birds sing}
00:58:39	{man} Charles.
00:58:42	Charles, my old friend, there you are.
00:58:48	Yes. Yes, of course.
00:58:57	Mrs Darwin has told me
00:59:01	Oh, no, no, not any more.
00:59:04	{Innes} You mean you finished it?
00:59:06	It's been finished for me, actually.
00:59:08	A Mr Alfred Russell Wallace
00:59:13	at exactly the same opinion.
00:59:17	Expressed in a... {chuckles}
00:59:20	In a mere 20 pages.
00:59:23	Now, there's brevity for you.
00:59:27	I had covered 250 so far
00:59:30	so whilst having wasted 20 years
00:59:40	Well.
00:59:45	Well...
00:59:47	...the Lord moves in mysterious ways.
00:59:53	Hmm, yes, He does, doesn't He?
00:59:58	You know, I was remarking
01:00:00	how He has endowed us
01:00:04	with not one but 900 species
01:00:08	each with its own unique method
01:00:12	and burrowing through
01:00:15	And on the love that he shows
01:00:19	by inventing a wasp that lays its eggs
01:00:24	I have said on many occasions, it is not
01:00:28	No, we can leave that to Mr Wallace.
01:00:31	Shall I advise him to stay abroad,
01:00:35	With his opinions,
01:00:38	he may be required
01:00:56	I always valued our friendship.
01:01:02	Until now, I regarded you
01:01:06	with whom one could disagree
01:01:13	Sadly, that feeling is...
01:01:38	What?
01:01:42	I'm forestalled by Wallace.
01:01:44	What have I done? What?
01:01:47	What possible... What possible reason
01:01:54	Annie.
01:01:57	Annie! Annie! Come here! Come back!
01:01:59	Come back here now!
01:02:04	I am your father! You...
01:02:09	What did I do?
01:02:14	Annie! C-Come here! Come back!
01:02:19	What did I do to you?
01:02:23	Come here! Annie! Annie! Come here!
01:02:42	Get rid of them.
01:02:46	Get rid of all of them.
01:02:52	Come on. Get out!
01:02:55	Get out!
01:02:57	Go! Come on!
01:03:00	Get out! Go!
01:03:02	Go!
01:03:08	{grunts}
01:03:11	Mr Darwin. Mr... Mr Darwin.
01:03:13	- {Darwin grunts}
01:03:16	- {grunts}
01:03:19	I'll have Lewis dismantle it, sir.
01:03:22	Now, Mr Darwin,
01:03:26	God, no.
01:03:31	God damn it.
01:03:33	Damn it all to hell.
01:03:37	{Par slow} Mr Darwin?
01:03:41	Help me here! Help me here!
01:03:51	{Dr Holland} So, increase the calomel
01:03:54	- {Emma} Yes, of course.
01:04:09	I think Papa's going to die, too.
01:04:17	{footsteps}
01:04:31	Oh. Hello, Hooker. Hello.
01:04:37	Still talking.
01:04:38	That's good. Word had reached London
01:04:43	Your enemies are celebrating
01:04:46	I have no enemies.
01:04:51	- This is the Wallace letter?
01:04:55	Well, he has 20 pages.
01:04:58	You have a whole book,
01:05:01	I intend to extract the other
01:05:04	Have you been talking to Huxley again?
01:05:06	No. Had I been, he'd be here himself
01:05:10	No, I cannot. I know not what ails me,
01:05:14	Bosh! You have had this illness
01:05:18	It's worse in times of overwork,
01:05:20	but it has nothing to do with your soul,
01:05:24	- Go and get yourself treated.
01:05:27	Believe me, you do have enemies.
01:05:29	I'll bet half the nation
01:05:33	if they knew what you were writing,
01:05:36	and all of us
01:05:38	And we can win this in our lifetimes.
01:05:42	I implore you, go to Malvern,
01:05:46	come back and win it for us.
01:06:14	- She's nearly ready.
01:06:18	- I want to come with you.
01:06:20	- Malvern's not so far.
01:06:24	- What if the baby comes early?
01:06:27	- Your job is here with the children.
01:06:31	I can't care about the other children
01:06:36	{Broody} Mind her shawl,
01:06:41	Alright, thank you. Thank you.
01:06:45	- I made these. It's Annie's favourite.
01:06:50	You will see your mama
01:06:53	- Broody, get aboard.
01:06:55	- Say goodbye, now.
01:06:59	- Say goodbye now.
01:07:03	I'm going with you.
01:07:10	{Jetty sobs}
01:07:16	{carriage door closes}
01:07:19	{Darwin} Go! Go now.
01:07:24	{driver} Walk on.
01:07:32	{sobs}
01:07:44	{Emma cries}
01:07:59	{approaching footsteps}
01:08:03	Mr Darwin, old friend. Mr Darwin.
01:08:07	How long has it been?
01:08:12	Well... So, what have we now?
01:08:20	Tongue? Hmm-hm.
01:08:24	Shirt up. Let me feel your liver.
01:08:32	Right. Up.
01:08:34	Pulse hectic, tongue furred,
01:08:40	And obviously you've been exercising
01:08:45	- I have been writing a book.
01:08:47	There are far too many of those already.
01:08:50	- Are you sleeping?
01:08:53	And I suppose never taking
01:08:57	I had my carpenter build a water tower.
01:09:02	Of course not!
01:09:05	- What on Earth possessed you?
01:09:09	Oh, come, come, come.
01:09:13	A sharp spinal scrub,
01:09:18	and sweating by the lamp.
01:09:21	No red meat, no reading,
01:09:25	We shall soon have you right, Mr Darwin.
01:09:34	{scrubbing}
01:10:16	Papa? I think I'm feeling better now.
01:11:16	Papa!
01:12:08	Sir, I kneel before You in all humility.
01:12:15	If it is in Your power, God,
01:12:20	...then I will believe in You
01:12:29	Take me, if You must take someone,
01:12:38	She's such a good little girl, you see.
01:12:53	I ask this in the name
01:12:56	and in the name of all children.
01:13:01	Thank you. Amen.
01:13:07	{doctor} With what do you most
01:13:13	Strong emotion? Physical exertion?
01:13:18	Any particular action?
01:13:21	- Is... Is memory an action?
01:13:28	- My daughter.
01:13:34	You must accept
01:13:41	Oh, dear fellow... she is in heaven.
01:13:50	Yes, that's what my wife believes.
01:13:54	It is a great consolation to her.
01:13:56	But not you?
01:14:00	She and I are divided on it.
01:14:02	- Were you always?
01:14:07	Only since Annie died.
01:14:13	{driver} Whoa, there.
01:14:18	Charles, I'm...
01:14:23	- Where is she?
01:14:27	Thank you. Thank you.
01:14:45	{Emma whispers}
01:15:05	{Darwin} Since that time, she has sought
01:15:12	{doctor} Has this division...
01:15:21	We have none any more... to speak of.
01:15:28	Perhaps that's for the best.
01:15:31	Meaning?
01:15:36	Our last baby...
01:15:41	Baby Ch... Baby Charlie.
01:15:48	{sobs}
01:15:52	Are you familiar
01:15:56	Yes, I... I've read him.
01:15:59	I have no time for the man.
01:16:01	He maintains that certain thoughts
01:16:07	...without us being aware of them.
01:16:10	They then may manifest as boils
01:16:14	and fainting spells... and ghosts.
01:16:24	It's po... It's possible, yes.
01:16:29	Annie is buried here in Malvern,
01:16:38	- Yes.
01:16:49	- I really do not wish to discuss this.
01:16:52	- What possible bearing can it have?
01:16:55	That is your opinion. Your treatments
01:16:59	- I think not, sir.
01:17:02	I think you're not yet cured.
01:17:06	- Do you have faith, Mr Darwin?
01:17:10	You say you take no comfort
01:17:18	Until you do, all the waters in
01:17:36	{door closes}
01:17:38	{birds sing}
01:18:05	{mutters}
01:18:17	Annie?
01:18:21	Annie! Annie!
01:18:25	Annie!
01:18:28	Annie! {pants}
01:18:31	Annie!
01:19:07	- {door opens}
01:19:15	Hello?
01:19:26	Hello? Hello?
01:19:31	- Good evening.
01:19:34	I'm Mr Darwin.
01:19:36	Room number 12, wasn't it?
01:19:40	Yes, it was.
01:19:44	I would only be ten minutes or so.
01:19:50	First floor.
01:19:52	- Last room on the right.
01:19:56	Thank you.
01:20:22	I have the embrocating.
01:20:26	- Does she want for anything else?
01:20:30	Alright. Alright, little one.
01:20:35	Here we go. Now, then.
01:20:41	Just rub this on.
01:20:44	- How's that? Better?
01:20:51	{Darwin} Dearest Emma, I think it best
01:20:57	Doctor Gully's treatments
01:21:01	I will write again tomorrow,
01:21:04	The surgeon came today
01:21:08	This did not hurt her,
01:21:13	I asked if there was
01:21:16	but he believes
01:21:21	My Emma, Annie rallied yesterday.
01:21:26	For a moment, I was foolish
01:21:30	our dear child
01:21:33	This last attack was first thought
01:21:37	but rapidly assumed the form
01:21:42	She talks a great deal,
01:21:46	Look, Mama, I'm a general!
01:21:52	Much of what she says
01:21:54	from the roughness of her poor mouth.
01:21:57	- We sponged her with water and vinegar.
01:22:01	- Made her sweet with chloride of lime.
01:22:04	Gully thinks our poor, sweet child
01:22:07	Is that better, my darling?
01:22:10	Beautifully good.
01:22:16	I'm making custard.
01:22:25	My darling Emma, I miss you, terribly.
01:22:30	I often think of the precious looks
01:22:34	You were always
01:22:37	and comfort her so on all occasions.
01:22:40	This dreadful alternation
01:22:46	I feel we must prepare ourselves
01:22:50	{Annie breathes with difficulty}
01:22:56	Tell me about Jenny.
01:23:07	What about Jenny?
01:23:09	Ab... About how she dies.
01:23:18	Please, Papa. I like it.
01:23:25	Well...
01:23:31	When she was very sick
01:23:39	...he tried to feed her with a spoon.
01:23:47	But she shook her head
01:23:51	as if to say...
01:23:54	..."That's very sweet of you. Really."
01:23:59	"We're beyond that now."
01:24:06	And the keeper was much moved
01:24:13	And as he bent down to comfort her,
01:24:17	she brought her arms
01:24:21	...and looked into his eyes
01:24:31	And then she laid her head
01:24:39	...and died.
01:25:06	{Darwin sobs bitterly}
01:25:29	Oh, my darling girl, my darling girl!
01:25:36	{sobs bitterly}
01:26:07	{distant piano music}
01:26:12	{music gets louder}
01:26:23	- {stops playing}
01:26:26	So sorry I startled you.
01:26:30	Goodness, Charles. Take off your coat.
01:26:32	- You're dripping wet.
01:26:38	I went back to Worcester Road.
01:26:41	I saw Annie.
01:26:47	{gasps} You're hurting my arm.
01:26:49	- I need to make you understand...
01:26:53	- I am glad you're feeling better.
01:26:56	I need you to listen
01:26:59	I understand perfectly.
01:27:03	You've lived with her and spoken
01:27:07	She is more real to you than we are.
01:27:10	- She is dead, Charles.
01:27:13	She is dead!
01:27:15	What in God's name is wrong with you?
01:27:18	Why can you not leave our poor girl
01:27:22	You're the one
01:27:24	but on a cloud,
01:27:27	- I will not listen to this!
01:27:31	Is that how her death was for you, Emma?
01:27:33	- Something gutted of darkness?
01:27:36	Away from you?
01:27:39	We're like some, some survivors
01:27:42	Yes! Yes, because of you!
01:27:46	- How? How? How?
01:27:50	With the truth, Emma!
01:27:53	Open the door! Open the...
01:27:56	Open this door! Open it!
01:28:03	What do you want from me?
01:28:04	I want us to be honest with each other.
01:28:07	About what?
01:28:08	About this... nagging belief
01:28:13	- That what?
01:28:18	- I never said that.
01:28:21	And say everything else that follows,
01:28:24	that I should have kept her warm
01:28:30	...I should never have taken her
01:28:36	I should have waited for you.
01:28:41	These are your thoughts, Charles.
01:28:45	They are not mine.
01:28:51	I was on the beach.
01:28:56	And I let you go.
01:29:01	I knew, when you left for Malvern...
01:29:06	...that I would never see her again.
01:29:10	And I hated you.
01:29:14	I hated you for taking her, Charles.
01:29:18	But I was her mother.
01:29:22	And what was I thinking?
01:29:30	I should have followed you up there.
01:29:38	I let her go.
01:29:44	That's the truth.
01:29:49	And more than anything...
01:29:53	...I have...
01:29:56	...hated... myself.
01:30:00	{sobs}
01:30:08	Perhaps...
01:30:17	- Perhaps we should never have married.
01:30:24	Our blood was too close.
01:30:32	{sighs}
01:30:35	You see, Emma... I thought
01:30:52	But perhaps instead we endowed her
01:31:04	I just... wanted to be with you
01:31:24	The fact... of it is...
01:31:31	...knowing everything I now know...
01:31:37	...I would marry you again tomorrow,
01:31:44	{Darwin sobs}
01:33:02	{birds sing}
01:33:30	{Darwin} The affinities of all beings
01:33:34	have sometimes been represented
01:33:38	The green and budding twigs
01:33:41	and those produced
01:33:44	may represent the long succession
01:33:47	So, I believe it has been
01:33:51	which fills with its dead and broken
01:33:56	while covering the surface with its...
01:33:58	The frameworks of bones have been
01:34:02	wing of a bat, fin of a porpoise
01:34:05	at once explain themselves
01:34:09	with slow and slight successive...
01:34:11	It is interesting to contemplate
01:34:14	clothed with many plants of many kinds,
01:34:17	with birds singing on the bushes,
01:34:21	and with worms
01:34:24	and to reflect that these
01:34:28	so different from each other
01:34:31	in so complex a manner, have all been
01:34:41	{Emma talks in the distance}
01:34:44	"Advancing gently forward over
01:34:48	and bending my eyes downwards
01:34:53	- Hello.
01:34:56	I was wondering
01:35:10	{grunts} Alright.
01:35:15	- Where were you?
01:35:18	"I perceived it to be a human creature
01:35:22	{Jetty} Not the book.
01:35:25	Please, a true story.
01:35:29	Like you did with Annie.
01:35:41	{closes book}
01:35:46	Alright. Let me think.
01:35:51	Did I ever tell you
01:35:54	- Yes.
01:35:57	Or the time our ship was struck
01:36:01	- {all} Yes.
01:36:04	- {all} Yes.
01:36:06	- {all} Yes.
01:36:08	- Really? I did?
01:36:12	Goodness gracious,
01:36:17	And yet I fancy
01:36:20	I have never told you
01:36:26	{all} No.
01:36:29	Alright, then.
01:36:33	in a rich and verdant land
01:36:38	...there lived a mammal.
01:36:46	There lived a mammal
01:36:49	as gentle as a lemur and as slow
01:36:53	- {kisses Jetty}
01:36:56	watching the slow green march
01:37:03	{geese honk}
01:37:15	{plays piano}
01:37:24	Er... I've finished.
01:37:26	- I've finished.
01:37:33	- You decide.
01:37:37	Well, about what should be done with it.
01:37:40	Someone needs to take God's side
01:37:45	I'd much rather it was you than Innes.
01:37:48	Supposing I think
01:37:51	Well... then you must do
01:38:01	Read it first.
01:39:22	- Emma?
01:39:26	Well, you said it was my decision.
01:39:41	Emma, where... Where are you going?
01:39:47	To John Murray publishers.
01:39:54	Do I have it right?
01:39:58	Yes.
01:40:02	And so... you have finally
01:40:13	May God forgive us both.
01:40:41	- Good morning, Jim.
01:40:43	- That parcel for me?
01:40:49	{Darwin} Thus, from the war of nature,
01:40:53	the most exalted object
01:40:57	namely the production of higher animals,
01:41:02	There is grandeur in this view of life,
01:41:06	that whilst this planet
01:41:09	according to the fixed law of gravity,
01:41:15	endless forms,
01:41:19	have been, and are being, evolved.
