00:00:31 OK. First positions, everybody.
00:00:37 (man) 32 take 2.
00:00:40 (director) And action.
00:00:50 And track.
00:02:16 (church bells ringing)
00:02:49 (hums)
00:03:02 Sam?
00:03:06 Sam?
00:03:12 Sam! Get the carriage ready.
00:03:15 - We're going to Miss Ernestina's.
00:03:40 (maid) Madam!
00:03:44 Madam, come quick!
00:03:48 - Good morning.
00:03:49 Will you please tell your mistress
00:03:53 - Charles! Goodness, you are up early.
00:03:57 - A beautiful morning.
00:04:01 Is, er, Ernestina awake?
00:04:04 - Er, Mary, is my niece awake?
00:04:07 - Well, tell her Mr Charles is here.
00:04:10 Might it be possible
00:04:14 - Alone?
00:04:17 - Thank you.
00:04:20 Miss! Mr Charles
00:04:24 - Mr Charles?
00:04:27 He wants to speak to you.
00:04:30 - What shall I... What dress shall I wear?
00:04:35 - You look pretty as a picture in your pink.
00:04:43 The conservatory is a private place.
00:04:47 It will suit. Thank you.
00:04:51 I shall wait for her... in the conservatory.
00:04:58 I always thought you from London
00:05:01 No, ma'am. Up and about.
00:05:04 Early birds ready to catch
00:05:12 She's comin'!
00:05:21 Charles?
00:05:23 Ernestina.
00:05:24 - She's gone into him.
00:05:28 Ernestina, it cannot have escaped
00:05:32 ...since I came down here
00:05:35 No, it has not escaped my notice.
00:05:39 I came to Lyme to explore the flint beds
00:05:47 ...but I have stayed for you.
00:05:50 - Ah.
00:05:53 Thank you.
00:05:55 - She's not going to turn him down?
00:06:00 I came to inquire whether you would
00:06:04 Yes, I would allow it.
00:06:09 Mind you, I don't know
00:06:11 I don't do what he considers to be work.
00:06:14 Are you suggesting that it is
00:06:17 - No. It is yours.
00:06:21 Papa will do what I want.
00:06:25 Well, in that case, might you take pity...
00:06:27 ...on a crusty old scientist,
00:06:32 ...and marry me?
00:06:35 Oh, Charles!
00:06:37 I've waited so long for this moment!
00:06:40 He's home and dry.
00:06:45 This isn't mistletoe,
00:06:49 Oh, Charles.
00:06:56 (phone rings)
00:07:10 Yeah?
00:07:14 Who is it?
00:07:18 Yes, it is.
00:07:23 I'll tell her.
00:07:28 Anna?
00:07:30 You're late.
00:07:33 Make-up's waiting for you.
00:07:39 Oh, God!
00:07:42 - What happened to the wake-up call?
00:07:47 - Who called?
00:07:51 - Did you answer the phone?
00:07:53 Well, then... they know.
00:07:56 - They know that you're in my room.
00:07:59 In your bed. I want them to know.
00:08:05 Christ, look at the time.
00:08:08 They'll fire me for immorality.
00:08:13 They'll think I'm a whore.
00:08:16 You are.
00:08:20 Morning.
00:08:23 Chilly morning.
00:08:55 (hammering)
00:09:26 Miss Woodruff! You know
00:09:32 Miss Duff has made
00:09:35 The cottage is to be sold.
00:09:40 How much money do you possess?
00:09:46 Miss Woodruff, I think I know
00:09:49 Mrs Poulteney from the Grange.
00:09:53 Does her house overlook the sea?
00:09:57 Yes, it does, yes.
00:09:59 Then... I would be grateful
00:10:31 - Mr Smithson to see Mr Freeman.
00:10:40 You may be a gentlemen
00:10:43 ...but you are certainly punctual.
00:10:45 Good morning, Mr Freeman.
00:10:48 Well...
00:10:51 We could have met
00:10:53 ...but I thought you'd be
00:10:56 - Indeed I am.
00:11:01 Of course, in a few months we shall be
00:11:05 I see.
00:11:06 That's the May Queen,
00:11:10 Yes, indeed. I recognise, er, Charles...
00:11:13 ...that you bring to Ernestina
00:11:16 ...but also in time
00:11:19 That is so.
00:11:21 Yes...
00:11:24 Well, I know my daughter loves you.
00:11:28 You seem to me an upright man.
00:11:35 I started here, Charles,
00:11:41 - You know I have no son.
00:11:45 Well, if you ever felt disposed
00:11:50 ...I would be delighted to be your guide.
00:11:54 Thank you.
00:11:56 Oh, yes, he was very respectful
00:11:59 ...my position
00:12:02 In fact, he asked me about my work.
00:12:05 But as I didn't think that
00:12:09 ...I gave him a brief discourse
00:12:13 - How wicked of you!
00:12:17 In fact... he ventured the opinion...
00:12:20 ...that Mr Darwin should be exhibited
00:12:25 In the monkey house.
00:12:27 I'll lead the way.
00:12:32 Shall we return?
00:12:35 I thought you might welcome a reason
00:12:42 Very well.
00:12:46 Good Lord! What on earth is she doing?
00:12:52 - Oh. It's poor "Tragedy".
00:12:56 The fishermen have
00:12:58 What?
00:12:59 They call her
00:13:03 Do they?
00:13:07 - Please come.
00:13:10 - She could fall.
00:13:13 It's dangerous. Will you stay there?
00:13:16 Charles!
00:13:19 Charles!
00:13:28 Madam!
00:13:33 Madam!
00:13:36 Madam, forgive me. I'm alarmed
00:13:43 Madam!
00:14:11 Tell me, who is this... French lieutenant?
00:14:16 He is a man she's said to have...
00:14:19 Fallen in love with?
00:14:21 - Worse than that.
00:14:27 Is there a child?
00:14:30 I think not.
00:14:32 Oh, it's all gossip.
00:14:36 What's she doing here?
00:14:39 They say she's waiting for him to return.
00:14:44 How banal.
00:15:13 (woman) How has she supported
00:15:16 (vicar) Most pitifully. I understand...
00:15:28 Miss? Miss?
00:15:32 Miss Woodruff,
00:15:41 Mrs Poulteney, this is Miss Woodruff.
00:15:46 I see.
00:15:50 I wish, as the vicar has told you...
00:15:53 ...to take a companion.
00:15:56 He has indicated to me that you might be
00:16:02 - You are without employment?
00:16:05 - But you have been a governess?
00:16:09 The post of companion requires a person
00:16:14 - I have my servants to consider.
00:16:18 - You speak French, I believe?
00:16:21 - I do not like the French.
00:16:23 Perhaps you might
00:16:26 Yes, of course, Mrs Poulteney.
00:16:30 Mr Forsythe informs me that you...
00:16:34 ...retain an attachment
00:16:39 I have heard from
00:16:42 ...that you're always to be seen
00:16:46 You stand on the Cobb and look to sea.
00:16:51 I'm led to believe that
00:16:54 ...but I must emphasise that such
00:16:59 ...intolerable... and sinful.
00:17:03 If you consider me unsuitable
00:17:06 ...do you wish me to leave the house?
00:17:09 ...that this person
00:17:14 - How am I to show it?
00:17:23 I should like to hear you
00:17:27 If your expression is agreeable to me...
00:17:30 ...you shall have the position.
00:17:38 - Mike?
00:17:39 Listen to this.
00:17:42 "In 1857, it is estimated there were 80,000
00:17:47 Yeah?
00:17:48 "Out of every 60 houses,
00:17:52 Hoo, hoo, hoo!
00:17:54 "At a time when the male population of
00:17:59 ...the prostitutes were receiving clients
00:18:04 - Two million?
00:18:07 You know when I say in the graveyard
00:18:13 (helicopter overhead)
00:18:19 "If I went to London,
00:18:22 ...what some already
00:18:25 - Go on. Yeah?
00:18:28 This man says that
00:18:31 ...were nice girls, like governesses,
00:18:35 You offend your boss, you lose
00:18:39 That's the reality.
00:18:41 The male population was
00:18:44 Yeah.
00:18:45 Well, if we take away a third
00:18:49 ...that means that, outside of marriage...
00:18:53 ...your Victorian gentleman could
00:19:59 (humming)
00:20:44 (whistling)
00:21:46 (twig snaps)
00:21:57 I'm very sorry to disturb you.
00:22:10 (knocking)
00:22:11 All right. I'm comin'!
00:22:20 For the lovely young lady upstairs.
00:22:24 And... for the even more lovely one down.
00:22:41 How much do I owe you?
00:22:43 - A penny?
00:23:04 Thank you very much.
00:23:07 - Do you know that lady?
00:23:11 - Does she come this way often?
00:23:14 But she be no lady.
00:23:16 She be the French lieutenant's whore.
00:23:35 From Mr Charles, Miss Tina,
00:23:38 - Did he bring them himself?
00:23:42 - Where is Mr Charles?
00:23:45 Ask who?
00:23:47 - His servin' man, Miss.
00:23:51 - Yes, Miss.
00:23:52 Oh, it was just the time of day, Miss.
00:23:55 You will kindly remember
00:23:59 Yes, Miss.
00:24:00 If he makes advances,
00:24:04 Now bring me some barley water.
00:24:14 Madam?
00:24:21 Madam?
00:24:25 I'm very sorry to have
00:24:33 I gather you've recently become...
00:24:40 May I accompany you? Since
00:24:46 I prefer to walk alone.
00:24:50 - May I introduce myself?
00:24:54 - Ah. Then...
00:25:01 And please tell no one that
00:25:19 "Miss Woodruff."
00:25:21 Wait a minute. I lost the place.
00:25:23 Page 50. I suddenly see you. You've
00:25:29 I see you, then you see me. We look at
00:25:33 All right.
00:25:35 Right. I see you.
00:25:38 Get your coat caught in the brambles.
00:25:41 Right.
00:25:43 Now I'm looking at you.
00:25:45 You see me.
00:25:49 - "Miss Woodruff."
00:25:51 But now you come
00:25:55 It's a narrow path, and it's muddy.
00:25:57 - You slip in the mud...
00:26:03 ...and I help you up.
00:26:06 - All right.
00:26:18 All right...
00:26:23 I've got my dress caught in the brambles.
00:26:27 Suddenly you see me.
00:26:31 Then I see you.
00:26:35 "Miss Woodruff."
00:26:49 I dread to think what would happen...
00:26:52 ...if you should one day
00:26:57 I must go back.
00:26:59 Permit me to say something first.
00:27:02 (dog barking)
00:27:14 Down here, here in this hollow.
00:27:18 Here. Here.
00:27:20 Heel!
00:27:25 It's really not necessary to hide.
00:27:30 No man who cares for his good name can
00:27:39 Miss Woodruff... I've heard
00:27:44 It cannot be any great pleasure
00:27:48 Why don't you leave Lyme? I understand
00:27:53 - I should be happy to make inquiries...
00:27:58 But why?
00:27:59 You have no family ties, I believe,
00:28:03 I have ties.
00:28:08 To this French gentleman?
00:28:15 Permit me to insist.
00:28:18 If no one dares speak of them, they fester.
00:28:22 If he doesn't return...
00:28:24 ...he was not worthy of you.
00:28:27 - If he returns...
00:28:34 You fear he will never return?
00:28:37 I know he will never return.
00:28:43 I do not take your meaning.
00:28:47 He is married.
00:28:54 I should have listened to
00:28:57 - You are a cunning, wicked creature!
00:29:03 You have been seen
00:29:05 Not twice, but thrice!
00:29:07 But... what, pray, is the sin in that?
00:29:11 The sin? You, a young woman
00:29:16 - It is nothing but a large wood.
00:29:20 And what goes on,
00:29:23 No one frequents it. I go there to be alone.
00:29:26 Do you contradict me, Miss?
00:29:29 You will confine your walks
00:29:32 Do I make myself clear?!
00:29:40 Good afternoon,
00:29:42 Good afternoon.
00:29:47 - It's that Mrs Poulteney.
00:29:50 The one who kicked me out in the street.
00:29:52 Is it? Poison her tea.
00:29:55 Ah, now, Miss Woodruff.
00:30:00 - Are you liking Lyme?
00:30:03 Thank you, ma'am. Yes.
00:30:06 - Were you born far from Lyme?
00:30:10 - (knocking)
00:30:11 Ah, tea. Thank you, Mary.
00:30:14 Good... Just there.
00:30:18 How long will you remain in Lyme,
00:30:21 Oh, for the summer.
00:30:24 I must say, Mrs Poulteney,
00:30:27 At my age, Miss Freeman,
00:30:31 Then I have no fears for you.
00:30:33 With gross disorders on the streets...
00:30:36 ...it becomes ever more necessary to
00:30:40 - Gross disorders on the streets?
00:30:44 Even a disciple of Darwin,
00:30:48 ...could not fail to notice
00:30:52 It no doubt pleases you...
00:30:54 ...since it would accord with
00:31:00 I must look more closely into it...
00:31:02 ...the next time I find myself on a street.
00:31:05 Please allow me to help you, Mrs Tranter.
00:31:07 Your maid, for example, Mrs Tranter.
00:31:10 I have been informed by my housekeeper
00:31:15 ...talking with a person, a young person.
00:31:20 My housekeeper did not know him.
00:31:24 Oh, then it was no doubt
00:31:28 - Very likely.
00:31:31 ...your servant spends an inordinate
00:31:35 And what is the harm in that?
00:31:37 There is a world of a difference between
00:31:41 But I do not understand what crime Mary
00:31:46 Your future wife is a better judge than
00:31:50 I know the girl in question.
00:31:53 I had to dismiss her.
00:31:55 If you were older, you would know that
00:32:03 I bow to your
00:32:23 (Miss Woodruff whispers) I'm here!
00:32:32 (organ plays)
00:32:36 Thank you for coming. Thank you.
00:32:39 How did you dare to behave in so
00:32:45 - How dare you, in front of Miss Freeman?
00:32:49 It must be obvious it would be improper
00:32:54 Yes, it is obvious.
00:32:59 Why don't you go to London,
00:33:02 If I went to London,
00:33:07 I should become what some
00:33:10 - My dear Miss Woodruff...
00:33:15 I have sinned.
00:33:18 You cannot imagine my suffering.
00:33:23 My only happiness is when I sleep.
00:33:26 When I wake, the nightmare begins.
00:33:31 (door closes)
00:33:39 This is...
00:33:40 Why am I born what I am?
00:33:43 - Why am I not born Miss Freeman?
00:33:47 - I did not mean...
00:33:49 Not envy!
00:33:51 Incomprehension.
00:33:54 - You must help me.
00:33:57 I do not... I will not believe that.
00:34:01 What do you want of me?
00:34:02 I must tell you what really
00:34:07 I beg of you. You are my only hope.
00:34:10 I shall be on the Undercliff tomorrow
00:34:13 I shall wait for you.
00:34:17 I must go.
00:34:20 I shall wait!
00:34:50 Davide?
00:34:54 No, it's not Davide. It's Mike.
00:35:00 What are you doing?
00:35:02 - Looking at you.
00:35:07 Come back. Come on.
00:35:25 - Do you approve of my telescope?
00:35:29 I use it to keep an eye out for mermaids.
00:35:32 (laughs) Here.
00:35:35 I'm delighted you dropped in.
00:35:38 The best brandy in Dorset.
00:35:41 I keep it for visitors from London
00:35:45 - Your good health, Doctor.
00:35:50 - Care for a cheroot?
00:35:54 I understand you're, er... a scientist.
00:35:58 A seeker after fossils.
00:36:01 Palaeontology is my interest.
00:36:04 I gather it is not yours.
00:36:06 When we know more of the living,
00:36:11 Yes, I was introduced the other day
00:36:14 ...that rather inclines me
00:36:18 A very strange case, as I understand it.
00:36:21 - Her name is Woodruff.
00:36:25 We know more about your fossils on the
00:36:31 A German doctor called Hartmann has
00:36:37 One he calls "natural", by which
00:36:42 ...a sad temperament.
00:36:44 Another he calls "occasional"...
00:36:46 ...by which he means
00:36:50 And the third class he calls
00:36:54 ...by which he really means, poor man,
00:37:01 - But she had an occasion, did she not?
00:37:05 Is she the first young woman
00:37:08 She belongs to the third class:
00:37:13 Listen to me.
00:37:15 I'll tell you, in the strictest confidence.
00:37:19 I was called in to see her,
00:37:23 She was working as a seamstress,
00:37:26 Well, hardly living. Weeping without
00:37:32 Melancholia as plain as the pox.
00:37:35 I could see there was only one cure.
00:37:38 To get her away from this place.
00:37:42 She goes to a house that
00:37:46 ...to a mistress that sees no difference
00:37:50 - And she will not be moved.
00:37:54 Not at all. Hartmann has something
00:37:58 ...about one of his patients.
00:38:02 "It was as if her torture
00:38:08 And she has confided the true
00:38:11 - She has not.
00:38:15 I mean, if she could
00:38:19 She would be cured.
00:38:22 But she does not want to be cured.
00:38:42 I was working... as a governess.
00:38:48 At the Talbots'.
00:38:54 His name was Varguennes.
00:39:00 He was brought to the house
00:39:05 He had a dreadful wound. His flesh
00:39:11 He was in great pain...
00:39:14 ...yet he never cried out.
00:39:17 Not the smallest groan.
00:39:22 I admired his courage.
00:39:27 I looked after him.
00:39:32 I did not know then that men can be
00:39:42 He was handsome.
00:39:47 No man had ever paid me the kind
00:39:52 ...recovering.
00:39:57 He told me I was beautiful...
00:40:02 ...and that he could not understand
00:40:09 Such things.
00:40:15 He would mock me...
00:40:20 ...lightly.
00:40:24 I took pleasure in it.
00:40:28 When I would not let him kiss my hand...
00:40:32 ...he called me cruel.
00:40:36 A day came when I thought
00:40:42 And you were no longer... cruel?
00:40:47 (sighs)
00:40:51 Varguennes recovered.
00:40:53 He left for Weymouth.
00:40:55 He said that he would wait there
00:41:02 I told him that I would never follow him...
00:41:04 ...that I could not.
00:41:09 But, after he had gone...
00:41:14 ...my loneliness was so deep...
00:41:18 ...I felt I would drown in it.
00:41:26 I followed him.
00:41:29 I went to the inn
00:41:31 It was not a respectable place -
00:41:35 They told me to go up to his room.
00:41:38 They looked at me.
00:41:42 They smiled.
00:41:45 I insisted he be sent for.
00:41:52 He seemed... overjoyed to see me.
00:41:59 He... he was all that a lover should be.
00:42:02 I had not eaten that day. He took me
00:42:11 But...
00:42:15 ...he had changed.
00:42:19 He was full of smiles and caresses, but...
00:42:24 ...I knew at once that he was insincere.
00:42:29 I saw that I had been...
00:42:33 ...an amusement for him.
00:42:36 Nothing more.
00:42:42 I saw all this within...
00:42:47 ...five minutes of our meeting.
00:43:00 Yet I stayed.
00:43:03 I ate the supper that was served.
00:43:05 I drank the wine. It did not intoxicate me.
00:43:12 Is... is that possible?
00:43:14 No doubt.
00:43:18 Soon he no longer bothered to hide the
00:43:23 ...nor could I pretend surprise.
00:43:25 My innocence was false
00:43:35 I could tell you that he overpowered me...
00:43:40 ...or that he drugged me, but...
00:43:45 ...it is not so.
00:43:52 I gave myself to him.
00:43:56 I did it so that I should
00:44:00 ...so that I should be seen
00:44:05 I knew it was ordained that
00:44:10 ...I married shame.
00:44:12 It is my shame that has kept me alive...
00:44:15 ...my knowing that I am
00:44:19 I... I shall never, like them,
00:44:23 ...and the pleasures of a home.
00:44:26 Sometimes I pity them. I have
00:44:31 No insult, no blame, can touch me.
00:44:35 I have set myself beyond the pale.
00:44:40 I am nothing.
00:44:43 I am... hardly human any more.
00:44:48 I am the French lieutenant's...
00:44:52 ...whore!
00:45:20 You must leave Lyme.
00:45:29 (laughter)
00:45:58 We must never meet alone again. Go.
00:46:03 I will wait.
00:46:32 What's the matter?
00:46:43 - What's the matter? You look sad.
00:46:49 No.
00:46:51 Why are you sad?
00:46:54 I'm not.
00:47:22 - Out of my way, little girl.
00:47:27 My usual.
00:47:29 - Gonna be a nice day, then?
00:48:39 (woman knocking) Miss Woodruff?
00:48:45 Miss Woodruff!
00:48:48 Miss Woodruff,
00:48:53 (knocking)
00:48:54 Mrs Poulteney wants to see you at once!
00:49:06 (clock strikes six)
00:49:18 (thunder)
00:49:55 - Yes?
00:49:58 - Dr Grogan is not here.
00:50:01 He has been called to the asylum.
00:50:06 Thank you.
00:50:10 (knocking)
00:50:14 Charles Smithson. I must see Dr Grogan
00:50:19 Follow me, please, sir.
00:50:23 (woman groaning)
00:50:25 Ah, Smithson. I can guess
00:50:29 I'm sorry I wasn't at home.
00:50:31 I'm attending a breech birth.
00:50:34 Well, the fact is,
00:50:39 - I'm sorry, I don't understand.
00:50:43 - No.
00:50:45 - I need your advice.
00:50:49 Miss Woodruff has disappeared.
00:50:52 There's a search party out. I've offered
00:50:57 - Or find her body.
00:51:00 - (woman in labour)
00:51:03 I must go back.
00:51:39 Nothing that has been said in this room
00:51:43 ...will go beyond these walls.
00:51:45 Now, you ask for my advice.
00:51:49 I am a young woman of superior
00:51:54 I am not in full command of my emotions.
00:51:56 What is worse, I have fallen in love
00:52:03 Enter a young god.
00:52:05 Intelligent, good-looking.
00:52:08 Kind.
00:52:11 My one weapon is the pity
00:52:15 So what do I do? I seize my chance.
00:52:18 One day, when I am walking where
00:52:21 ...I show myself to someone
00:52:26 ...to the one person who will
00:52:29 I then disappear...
00:52:31 ...under the presumption that it is in order
00:52:37 And then, in extremis...
00:52:39 ...I cry to my saviour for help.
00:52:43 What in heaven's name
00:52:45 I spoke to Mrs Poulteney's housekeeper.
00:52:49 The girl walked out of the woods
00:52:53 - Presumably to compromise you.
00:52:56 Listen to me. I have
00:53:00 I hasten to add, in pursuance
00:53:04 And I wish I had a guinea for every one
00:53:09 ...that their victims
00:53:11 But she is not a prostitute!
00:53:14 Neither is she a... fiend.
00:53:17 My dear man, you are
00:53:25 On my most sacred honour, nothing
00:53:30 I believe you. But let me ask you this.
00:53:34 Do you wish to hear her?
00:53:38 Do you wish to touch her?
00:53:50 You are not the first man
00:53:53 I will go to see the lady.
00:53:59 And you must go away, Smithson.
00:54:03 Yes.
00:54:06 I shall honour my vows to Miss Freeman.
00:54:11 I know of a private asylum in Salisbury.
00:54:13 Miss Woodruff would be kindly treated
00:54:17 - Would you bear the expense?
00:54:20 I would bear the expense.
00:56:43 Miss Woodruff.
00:56:53 Have you passed the night here?
00:56:59 - Are you cold?
00:57:06 Do not fear.
00:57:11 I have come to help you.
00:57:18 - Pray control yourself.
00:57:38 (girl giggling)
00:57:43 - (Mary) I'm not!
00:57:47 (Sam) What is it?
00:57:56 What the devil are you doing here?!
00:57:58 - Walking, Mr Charles.
00:58:00 Yes, sir.
00:58:04 I have come here to help that lady...
00:58:07 ...at the request of
00:58:12 - He is aware of the circumstances.
00:58:16 Which must on no account...
00:58:20 - I understand, sir.
00:58:24 Oh, she won't say nothin', sir. On my life.
00:58:29 On my solemn oath, Mr Charles.
00:59:00 I have taken unpardonable advantage
00:59:06 I am wholly to blame.
00:59:10 You must go to Exeter.
00:59:13 There is talk of
00:59:16 You will save yourself embarrassment
00:59:22 - Where are your belongings?
00:59:25 I will have them sent
00:59:28 Walk to Axmouth Cross,
00:59:32 Take the money in this purse.
00:59:37 Thank you.
00:59:40 Here is my lawyer's address.
00:59:43 Let him know where you are.
00:59:46 I will instruct him
00:59:48 Thank you.
00:59:59 I shall never see you again.
01:00:05 No.
01:00:11 You are a remarkable person,
01:00:15 Yes, I am a remarkable person.
01:00:50 I'm going - to London.
01:00:52 Yup.
01:00:57 Well, I don't have any more
01:01:04 Is, er... David here?
01:01:08 - No, he's flying in tonight.
01:01:15 No... it will be nice for you.
01:01:19 Nice for him, too.
01:01:23 I'll miss you.
01:01:26 I'll drive you up to the Cups
01:01:29 - See you in Exeter, Anna.
01:01:31 - Think of us, slogging away.
01:01:37 Am I going to see you in London?
01:01:39 That would be very, very difficult.
01:01:46 We are there for a fortnight.
01:01:48 I must see you.
01:01:54 OK.
01:01:57 (PA) OK, we're moving up to the Cups.
01:01:59 - Mike, we need you in Make-up.
01:02:01 Yes.
01:02:02 - Yes.
01:02:05 Sam?
01:02:11 - Sir.
01:02:14 I want you to leave for London
01:02:17 I'll be leaving tomorrow.
01:02:19 - Change of plan.
01:02:23 This doesn't have any bearing on
01:02:28 - What are you talking about?
01:02:33 Have you? Well, your immediate future
01:02:39 - Is that clear?
01:03:01 (rings bell)
01:03:07 Ah. Good afternoon.
01:03:09 Good afternoon, sir.
01:03:13 Thank you.
01:03:20 Sam has explained about the, er...
01:03:24 Yes, sir.
01:03:26 - And you understand?
01:03:33 - Sir, I don't want that.
01:04:08 Good afternoon.
01:04:11 Charles! So you have actually deigned
01:04:17 I am honoured.
01:04:19 I can assure you, the true charm
01:04:25 Honeyed words.
01:04:29 My dearest, I must leave you again
01:04:33 - To London?
01:04:36 - Oh, Charles!
01:04:39 Apparently there are matters outstanding,
01:04:43 - Your father is a most scrupulous person.
01:04:47 - Who?
01:04:49 Er... Justice for you.
01:04:51 Sweet justice...
01:04:57 Ernestina, I know our private affections
01:05:01 ...but there is also a... legal and
01:05:06 Fiddlesticks!
01:05:09 - My dearest Tina...
01:05:14 - I see you so little.
01:05:21 Kiss me, then... to seal your promise.
01:06:04 Play.
01:06:28 Upon the chase. 40-15.
01:06:31 Chase three.
01:06:57 Game to Mr Smithson,
01:07:02 My goodness, Charles, you were
01:07:06 - What's the answer? Country grub?
01:07:09 You were hitting it as though you hated it.
01:07:14 Harry, a word.
01:07:16 You will be hearing from a person,
01:07:20 She'll give you her address. I'd like
01:07:23 Of course. How much?
01:07:25 50.
01:07:28 Of course.
01:07:30 - Miss Woodruff?
01:07:32 And I want to hear nothing more about it.
01:07:37 You shan't.
01:07:49 Wait for me.
01:08:00 - Where the devil have you been?
01:08:03 Go and lay out my clothes.
01:08:05 Yes, sir. Can I have a word with you, sir?
01:08:08 No, you can't.
01:08:15 - How goes the huntin' in Dorset, Charles?
01:08:19 I could offer you a brace of
01:08:23 D'you know who
01:08:26 Do you recall Tornado at Cambridge?
01:08:28 Yes. So do my ankles.
01:08:31 Aye, he took a fancy to you.
01:08:35 What a profoundly good idea
01:08:39 - To dear old Tornado, God rest his soul.
01:08:50 Bravo! Port is essential
01:08:55 As claret was essential
01:08:58 As punch was essential
01:09:03 - What follows?
01:09:06 A little drive round town follows.
01:09:10 Tom, my dear old fellow,
01:09:13 So are you, Charley boy.
01:09:18 - On we go, gentlemen.
01:09:21 Where all damn good fellas go
01:09:25 We're goin' to Kate Hamilton's,
01:09:28 The bishop's son has hit it, Charley.
01:09:36 Steady.
01:09:37 Come along, sir, be upsta...
01:09:40 - The white flag is up. They're off!
01:09:43 - That's it. Very good.
01:09:47 Oh, my God!
01:09:53 I don't think our dear Charley is going
01:10:16 This come to Mr Montague,
01:10:19 Thank you very much.
01:10:52 Mr Charles?
01:10:57 Mr Charles?
01:10:59 Sir!
01:11:01 A letter for you, sir. Special messenger
01:11:21 Er, bring me some tea.
01:11:41 (humming)
01:12:37 What is it, Sam?
01:12:40 I'd like your advice, sir.
01:12:43 On what subject?
01:12:45 My ambition is to go
01:12:49 - Business?
01:12:51 - What kind of business?
01:12:55 I've set me heart on a little shop.
01:12:59 Would that not be
01:13:02 280, sir.
01:13:09 And how much do you have put by?
01:13:12 30... But that's three years' savin'.
01:13:15 So I was wonderin'
01:13:19 I can't say it sounds
01:13:22 I'm very enthusiastic
01:13:26 Very.
01:13:30 Well, I'll think about it.
01:13:32 I'll certainly be happy to think about it.
01:13:36 Now pack, would you?
01:13:39 - To Lyme, sir?
01:13:58 (guard) Exeter! Exeter!
01:14:01 Change here now
01:14:08 - Carriage to Lyme, sir?
01:14:12 We'll put up at the Ship.
01:14:14 - I'm going to stretch my legs.
01:14:18 I'll decide when I come in.
01:14:48 - A room, sir?
01:14:51 ...I should like to speak to one of your...
01:14:53 - A Miss Woodruff.
01:14:56 She was a-comin' downstairs
01:14:59 Turned her ankle terrible. I wanted to
01:15:03 I have to see her on a... business matter.
01:15:06 Ah... A gentleman of the law?
01:15:10 Yes.
01:15:12 - Then you must go up, sir.
01:15:14 Betty Anne? Take this gentleman
01:15:24 - (knocks)
01:15:29 A gentleman to see you, Miss.
01:15:43 I was passing through Exeter.
01:15:48 Had I not better go at once
01:15:51 He would only advise me
01:15:54 - You're not in pain?
01:16:00 Be thankful it didn't
01:16:03 Yes.
01:16:08 Do sit down.
01:16:40 Miss Woodruff, please...
01:16:43 I should not have come.
01:16:49 - I meant not to.
01:19:01 Oh!
01:19:15 Oh, Sarah.
01:19:22 (he gasps)
01:20:32 I was... the first?
01:20:36 Yes.
01:20:43 - Why did you lie about the Frenchman?
01:20:55 Does he exist?
01:20:58 Oh, yes, he exists.
01:21:02 I did follow him to Weymouth, to the inn.
01:21:08 As I drew near I saw him
01:21:13 The kind of woman one... cannot mistake.
01:21:20 When they had gone, I... walked away.
01:21:26 But then... why did you tell...
01:21:29 I don't know.
01:21:36 I cannot explain.
01:21:41 Not now.
01:21:49 I must make myself free.
01:21:51 - I am to blame. I knew when I came here.
01:21:55 I wished it so.
01:22:06 Sarah...
01:22:16 It is the sweetest name.
01:22:24 I have long imagined a day such as this.
01:22:30 I have longed for it.
01:22:34 I was lost from the moment I saw you.
01:22:42 I, too.
01:22:47 I must go to Lyme...
01:22:51 ...to see her, to tell her.
01:22:55 You must give me a day's grace.
01:23:01 You will wait for me, won't you?
01:23:06 I shall come back for you.
01:23:37 I shall be back tomorrow.
01:23:45 Do what you will... or what you must.
01:23:50 Now that I know there was truly
01:23:53 ...I can bear anything.
01:24:01 You have given me the strength to live.
01:24:30 - Cheese and onion.
01:24:35 - I'm losing you. I'm losing you!
01:24:39 - Stay the night.
01:24:40 - Why not? You're a free woman.
01:24:44 - I'm going mad!
01:24:46 - I want you so much.
01:24:50 (guard blows whistle)
01:24:53 Excuse me.
01:24:55 Bye-bye.
01:25:19 - (knocking)
01:25:23 Charles!
01:25:27 - Please sit down.
01:25:29 - Charles, what is it?
01:25:33 Well, what has happened?
01:25:36 Why do you look at me like that?
01:25:40 Because I don't know how
01:25:47 - I've come to tell you the truth.
01:25:50 - What truth?
01:25:53 ...after many hours of the deepest
01:25:57 ...come to the conclusion
01:26:00 - Not worthy of me?
01:26:03 Oh! You are joking.
01:26:07 No.
01:26:12 Will you kindly explain
01:26:16 The terms your father offered
01:26:19 But you despise the idea
01:26:21 - No, I don't despise it. I...
01:26:27 Ernestina, I have realised
01:26:30 ...that far too great a part of
01:26:34 I was far more tempted by your father's
01:26:39 Now that I've seen that to be the truth...
01:26:41 Are you saying...
01:26:43 ...that you have... never loved me?
01:26:51 I am not worthy of you.
01:27:02 Tina, dear.
01:27:10 Charles?
01:27:13 I know I am spoilt.
01:27:17 I know I am not unusual.
01:27:22 But under your love and protection...
01:27:26 ...I believed I would become... better.
01:27:32 I would do anything, you see.
01:27:34 I would... I would abandon
01:27:53 You are lying.
01:27:56 Something else has happened.
01:28:01 Yes.
01:28:04 Who?
01:28:08 You don't know her.
01:28:11 I don't know her?
01:28:13 I've known her... many years.
01:28:17 I thought the attachment was broken.
01:28:20 I discovered in London that it is not.
01:28:23 - Why did you not tell me?
01:28:26 Or yourself the shame of it!
01:28:29 Who is she?!
01:28:31 What woman would be so vile
01:28:37 - I can guess she is married.
01:28:39 - I came here to tell you the truth...
01:28:45 My father will drag your name,
01:28:50 You will be spurned
01:28:54 You will be hounded out of England!
01:29:01 - (knocking)
01:29:05 What the devil do you want? I didn't ring.
01:29:07 I brought you a glass of brandy, sir.
01:29:13 It's never true, sir?
01:29:16 Yes, it is true. Miss Freeman
01:29:20 Now go. And keep your mouth shut.
01:29:24 - Did you hear what I said?
01:29:27 ...I have to consider me own situation.
01:29:30 Will you be residing in London
01:29:36 - We shall probably go abroad.
01:29:40 ...I won't be accompanying you. And I'm
01:29:44 I'm leaving your employ, as I ought
01:29:48 - Go to hell!
01:29:50 ...as I might meet a friend of yours.
01:29:55 - Sam!
01:29:57 ...ring for one of the hotel domestics.
01:30:10 Wait here.
01:30:18 - Miss Woodruff expects me.
01:30:21 - Left? You mean gone out?
01:30:24 - She took the London train this afternoon.
01:30:27 She took the three o'clock to London.
01:30:32 - You're lying.
01:30:36 Sir! Wait a minute!
01:30:38 What are you doing?!
01:30:40 - Sarah?
01:30:44 You've no right! You're trespassin'!
01:30:48 - Did you hear what I said?!
01:31:22 (phone rings)
01:31:26 Hello? Hello?!
01:31:30 Room 516.
01:31:38 - Who was that?
01:31:42 - Who did?
01:31:49 - Maybe it was a wrong number.
01:31:54 (swing music playing on stereo)
01:31:56 All right, I'll get you
01:32:00 Darling, do go and play in the garden.
01:32:04 - Lucy! Lucy, I found it!
01:32:09 (turns down music)
01:32:11 - You all right?
01:32:14 Yeah.
01:32:17 Fine.
01:32:19 Listen, what about having
01:32:22 - What people?
01:32:26 Fine.
01:32:27 The film's nearly over, and Anna
01:32:32 You know.
01:32:34 Fine. As long as it's not the entire unit.
01:32:37 Oh, no. Just, you know...
01:32:42 Fine.
01:32:49 (rings)
01:32:52 - Hello?
01:32:55 We're having a lunch party
01:32:58 I'll give you Anna.
01:33:02 - Hello?
01:33:04 - Hi.
01:33:07 - You weren't in your hotel room.
01:33:10 - In Exeter.
01:33:13 Come to lunch on Sunday.
01:33:16 By the way, I love you.
01:33:19 Oh, great. Um... sure, we'd love to come.
01:33:22 - I'll... see you then.
01:33:25 Bye.
01:33:32 Lunch on Sunday.
01:33:35 "Will Miss Sarah Woodruff urgently
01:33:39 ...to Montague, Chancery Lane."
01:33:41 Yes, very well worth it, I should say.
01:33:44 Now, Mr Smithson...
01:33:46 ...I shan't pretend to you
01:33:49 But I have four good men,
01:33:53 We'll try the educational boards
01:33:56 We shall also investigate
01:34:00 - They're growing up like wildfire.
01:34:04 And we shall investigate
01:34:08 Yes.
01:34:10 I shall also be examining
01:34:18 Very good.
01:34:20 Try everything, Mr Grimes.
01:34:24 One last question, sir, for the moment.
01:34:27 Does the lady wish to be found,
01:34:32 I cannot say.
01:34:43 I'll be back in 15 minutes.
01:34:48 "We are instructed by Mr Ernest Freeman,
01:34:53 ...to request you to attend these chambers
01:34:57 "Failure to attend will be regarded as an
01:35:02 - "Aubrey and Baggott."
01:35:06 It means they have cold feet.
01:35:10 My guess is we will be asked
01:35:14 - To acknowledge my guilt?
01:35:17 Just so. I'm afraid we must
01:35:22 But I can only advise you to sign it.
01:35:25 We have no case.
01:35:27 Remember the skirt's going to be grey.
01:35:34 Oh, yeah.
01:35:36 Oh, it's great. It's great.
01:35:39 - I'm gonna like her in this.
01:35:42 "I, Charles Henry Smithson, solely by my
01:35:48 ...I contracted to marry
01:35:51 "Two: I was given no cause whatsoever
01:35:55 "Three: I was fully and exactly
01:35:59 ...her character, marriage portion
01:36:02 ...before my engagement to her hand."
01:36:04 "Four: I did break that contract
01:36:09 ...beyond my own criminal
01:36:12 "Five: I entered into a clandestine liaison
01:36:17 "Six: My conduct throughout this matter
01:36:21 "By it I have for ever forfeited
01:36:25 "The injured party may make whatsoever
01:36:33 - You are entitled to withdraw with me...
01:36:37 But I have one question. What does...
01:36:41 ..."The injured party may make whatever
01:36:46 It means precisely what it says.
01:36:48 She might, for instance, wish to
01:36:52 - And she would be free to do that?
01:36:59 I will sign.
01:38:53 (coachman) Whoa, there! Whoa!
01:39:34 (man) Go on, get out!
01:39:39 Get out!
01:39:44 Call the police!
01:39:46 Don't let her get away!
01:40:38 Oh! Oh, I'm sorry. I...
01:41:02 - Hello. I saw you through the window.
01:41:05 - Yes, I am.
01:41:08 - Come in.
01:41:11 Hi, Sonia. Nice to see you.
01:41:18 - Like some more wine?
01:41:24 (girl) 13-14.
01:41:36 - Can I have a drink?
01:41:40 - Excuse me for a minute.
01:41:44 I must say, they have
01:41:47 - Mm.
01:41:51 Of course, she seems so serene,
01:41:57 Look at their little girl.
01:42:02 Aren't you a pretty little thing?
01:42:04 - Who made that dress for you?
01:42:07 - Having a good time?
01:42:13 Have they decided how to end the movie?
01:42:15 - End it?
01:42:19 - Not at all. Where did you hear that?
01:42:23 A happy ending
01:42:26 We're going for the first ending -
01:42:29 - Which one is that?
01:42:32 (dog barks)
01:42:35 Manders. Manders! (whistles)
01:42:37 Come on. Good girl. Come on.
01:42:40 (laughing) There's a good girl. Yes.
01:42:50 Oh!
01:42:53 It's a really great... garden.
01:43:02 - Who takes care of it for you?
01:43:07 - All by yourself?
01:43:10 - What about Mike? Doesn't he help you?
01:43:14 A bit.
01:43:16 He's pretty lazy, actually.
01:43:25 I really... envy you.
01:43:29 Envy me? Why?
01:43:32 Well...
01:43:38 For being able to create
01:43:41 (Sonia laughs)
01:43:43 Oh, I wouldn't bother
01:43:52 Would you like a drink?
01:43:54 Mm.
01:43:56 (plays the Adagio
01:44:16 - I want to show you something.
01:44:37 Anna.
01:44:42 - This is pure bloody hell.
01:44:45 - Mike...
01:44:47 - All right. Not now.
01:44:50 - Windermere.
01:44:54 - We've got to talk properly.
01:44:57 - We've got to decide what we want.
01:44:59 - (Davide) Have you seen Anna?
01:45:03 I'm coming.
01:45:06 Sonia... Thank you.
01:45:11 - I had a wonderful time.
01:45:14 - Good to meet you.
01:45:18 - Good luck with the last scene.
01:46:10 Sir, a telegram for you.
01:46:14 Sir?
01:47:53 - Good morning.
01:47:55 - I'm Tom Elliott. Who are you?
01:47:58 - Mama and Papa are abroad.
01:48:03 I'll find her for you.
01:48:10 - (girl) You put that one in there.
01:48:16 - Mrs Roughwood?
01:48:21 - Mrs Roughwood?
01:48:25 - Someone to see you.
01:48:27 She's working, but she
01:49:02 Mrs Roughwood?
01:49:04 Mr Smithson?
01:49:08 My solicitor was told
01:49:11 - I do not know by whom.
01:49:16 By you?!
01:49:20 I've been looking for you for three years.
01:49:24 I broke off my engagement.
01:49:26 I came back for you to take you with me,
01:49:31 And now all these years later you choose
01:49:36 I could not do so before this.
01:49:39 - You've married.
01:49:44 I pass as a widow in the world.
01:49:47 - What is this house?
01:49:52 They gave me shelter a long time ago.
01:49:55 I am tutor to their children,
01:49:59 They have encouraged it.
01:50:02 - These are yours?
01:50:08 You have found your gift.
01:50:13 Why did you leave Exeter?
01:50:15 You told me you loved me.
01:50:24 Answer me!
01:50:29 There was madness in me... at that time.
01:50:34 A bitterness, an envy.
01:50:39 I forced myself on you, knowing
01:50:45 It was unworthy!
01:50:47 I saw after you had gone that I had
01:50:52 Are you saying that you never loved me?
01:50:57 - I could not say that.
01:51:02 You must say "I am totally evil."
01:51:04 "I used him as an instrument."
01:51:07 "I do not care
01:51:09 ...he hasn't seen a woman
01:51:13 ...that his life has been
01:51:16 ...that he sacrificed everything for me."
01:51:18 - Say it!
01:51:22 Why did you ask me here?
01:51:27 - I saw the newspaper advertisements...
01:51:30 - You read them, and you did nothing?
01:51:33 You ruined my life
01:51:36 You misjudge me! It has taken me
01:51:42 It has taken me this time
01:51:47 - Freedom?!
01:51:50 To make a mockery of love,
01:51:53 Is that what Exeter meant to you? One
01:51:57 You planted a dagger in me...
01:51:59 ...and your "freedom" gives you
01:52:02 - Well, no more.
01:52:04 Yes!
01:52:18 Mr Smithson...
01:52:24 ...I called you here
01:52:34 You loved me once.
01:52:39 If you still love me, you can forgive me.
01:52:42 I know... I know it is
01:52:48 But if you do...
01:52:51 ...still love me...
01:53:00 Then I must... forgive you.
01:53:07 Yes, you must.
01:53:39 (jazzy dance music)
01:54:20 - Anna. You're going.
01:54:23 - Goodbye. Good journey.
01:55:14 Mike!
01:55:16 Oh, are you going?
01:55:20 Take care.
01:55:49 (car door slams)
01:55:50 (engine starts)
01:55:56 (car drives off)
01:55:58 Sarah!
