1 00:02:18 Hello.
2 00:02:21 Who are you?
3 00:02:23 - I'm Dr. Faraday.- Oh.
4 00:02:25 I was expecting Granger.
5 00:02:28 Roderick Ayres.
6 00:02:38 It's one of your maids,I understand?
7 00:02:40 One of our maids?
8 00:02:42 I like that.
9 00:02:45 Down the steps on your left.
10 00:02:47 My sister will fill you in.
11 00:03:03 Gyp. Gyp!
12 00:03:04 Sorry. Shh.
13 00:03:08 He thinks every stranger'scome to cut our throats
14 00:03:09 and make offwith the last silver spoon.
15 00:03:12 Dr. Faraday.Dr. Granger's new partner.
16 00:03:15 Yeah. Caroline Ayres.
17 00:03:17 Betty's this way.
18 00:03:23 Hmm.
19 00:03:25 Have you been sickat all, Betty?
20 00:03:30 And is it a stabbing painor a burning pain?
21 00:03:33 It's like...
22 00:03:34 a burning painwith stabs in it?
23 00:03:39 Right.
24 00:03:41 Let's have a look at you.
25 00:03:43 Just relax.
26 00:03:45 Ow. Ow! Ow!
27 00:03:50 Could you leave us alone fora minute, please, Miss Ayres?
28 00:03:53 Yes, of course.
29 00:03:56 Come on, Gyp.
30 00:04:00 Well?
31 00:04:06 I did feel poorly.
32 00:04:09 I did.
33 00:04:13 And I just thoughtif I was bad enough...
34 00:04:20 ...that they mightsend me home.
35 00:04:22 What is it?
36 00:04:26 Is the work too hard?
37 00:04:28 Are they unkind to you?
38 00:04:34 Then what is it?
39 00:04:39 Shh.
40 00:04:40 Nothing serious.She'll be fine by tomorrow.
41 00:04:43 Ha.
42 00:04:46 Well, thank you.
43 00:04:48 There's one other thing.It's a very big house.
44 00:04:51 Betty's alone down hereat night.
45 00:04:52 I was...
46 00:04:53 These silly girls.
47 00:04:55 You've lived hereall your life, Miss Ayres.
48 00:04:58 Perhaps you couldreassure Betty.
49 00:04:59 She's really awfully young.
50 00:05:03 Right.
51 00:05:06 Well, let's find Roderick.
52 00:05:08 You can tell himhow much we owe you.
53 00:05:16 Rod?
54 00:05:20 Roddie?
55 00:05:23 How did you findthe patient, Doctor?
56 00:05:26 Mrs. Ayres?
57 00:05:29 Uh, Mother,this is Dr. Faraday.
58 00:05:31 He thinks we're brutes.
59 00:05:34 Little under the weather.
60 00:05:35 I imagine she'll be quite wellby tomorrow.
61 00:05:37 You'll observea change in Betty yet.
62 00:05:40 This house works on people.
63 00:05:42 Girls come herelike specks of grit.
64 00:05:44 Ten years later,they leave as pearls.
65 00:05:47 I expect Dr. Faraday's thinking
66 00:05:49 Betty won't stick it outfor ten years.
67 00:05:51 Most girls would rather workin factories these days,
68 00:05:53 and who can blame them?
69 00:05:55 As it happens,I was thinking of my mother.
70 00:05:57 She was a maid herebefore I was born.
71 00:06:01 Well...
72 00:06:04 I do hope she enjoyed her time.
73 00:06:07 Right. Roderick.
74 00:06:10 Come on, Gyp.
75 00:06:15 Wait here, please.
76 00:06:25 The first time
77 00:06:27 I saw Hundreds Hallwas July 1919...
78 00:06:32 an Empire Day fete the summerafter the Great War.
79 00:06:39 I had passed by its gatesoften enough,
80 00:06:41 never imaginingthey would open to me,
81 00:06:44 a common village boy.
82 00:06:49 There was bunting and cakeand all manner of games.
83 00:06:53 And at the heart of it,the Ayres family.
84 00:06:55 So happy and handsomeback then.
85 00:06:59 But it was the house itself,still in its glory,
86 00:07:02 which somehowimpressed me terribly.
87 00:07:08 My mother had describedthe place often.
88 00:07:11 But seeing it myselffor the first time,
89 00:07:15 nothing could have prepared mefor the spell it cast that day.
90 00:07:19 Aren't you smart?
91 00:07:24 Mummy.
92 00:07:28 Nice and still, please.
93 00:07:32 It won't be as badas you think.
94 00:07:34 I sincerely hopeyou aren't discussing supper.
95 00:07:36 The National Health Service.
96 00:07:39 Granger here will be all right.
97 00:07:42 People like to look upto their doctors.
98 00:07:44 Last thing they wantis one of their own.
99 00:07:46 Rubbish. They want someonewho'll do the job.
100 00:07:48 Besides, turns outyou've friends in high places.
101 00:07:50 - Peter said you'd been out to Hundreds.- Mm.
102 00:07:53 - Can't believe I missed that call.- How was it?
103 00:07:55 The place is a mess.
104 00:07:58 I'd heard they were pigging it.
105 00:08:00 Can't get tradesmen,too many unpaid bills.
106 00:08:03 Roderick handed methe shillings
107 00:08:04 as though they were his last.
108 00:08:05 Oh, poor boy.
109 00:08:06 One moment you'rean Air Force hero,
110 00:08:08 then captain of a sinking ship.
111 00:08:10 He's still in a good deal
112 00:08:12 of pain with his leg.
113 00:08:14 Night, Rod.
114 00:08:16 There was nervous trouble, too,
115 00:08:17 apparently, when he came back.
116 00:08:20 Hardly surprising.
117 00:08:22 You didn't treat him?
118 00:08:23 Family closed ranks.
119 00:08:25 Very hush-hush about it.
120 00:08:26 No, they broughtCaroline home to nurse him.
121 00:08:29 Rotten shame, really.
122 00:08:30 She was doing very well,
123 00:08:32 commission in the WAAFor the Wrens.
124 00:08:34 Awfully brainy girl.
125 00:09:51 Gyp!
126 00:09:54 Gyp!
127 00:09:56 Come here. What on earthdo you think you're doing?
128 00:09:58 I'm terribly sorry... Oh.
129 00:10:00 Oh, it's you.
130 00:10:02 I'm sorry. I-I was racinga horse and cart.
131 00:10:06 Well, no harm done, eh?
132 00:10:08 At least, uh,he's alive and kicking.
133 00:10:16 Here.
134 00:10:18 I mean to pay my fare.
135 00:10:20 What's wrong with the patientyou're visiting?
136 00:10:23 Whooping cough.
137 00:10:25 Try to call in twice a day.
138 00:10:28 Goodness.
139 00:10:30 You must be rolling in it.
140 00:10:32 He's a club patient.
141 00:10:34 I treat the whole familyfor a few shillings a year.
142 00:10:39 How's Betty?
143 00:10:41 Ah, well, Rod fixed her upwith a wireless.
144 00:10:44 Miracle cure.
145 00:10:47 Oh, look, I-I meant to say,
146 00:10:49 the day you camewe were ghastly, weren't we?
147 00:10:51 - Not at all.- No, no, no, we were.
148 00:10:53 We've lost the trickof company.
149 00:10:55 Mother won't have guestswith the house so shabby.
150 00:11:03 Are your parents stillin the county?
151 00:11:05 My mother died some while ago,
152 00:11:08 Father just last year.
153 00:11:10 That's what brought me back,in fact.
154 00:11:17 Come on, Gyp.
155 00:11:18 That's it.
156 00:11:22 You sure you won't come up?
157 00:11:24 That's kind, but...
158 00:11:25 Your patient.
159 00:11:27 Well, Rod will be awfullyjealous I had a ride.
160 00:11:30 He loves your car.
161 00:11:32 If you don't mind my saying,
162 00:11:34 I'm surprised the RAFdidn't make a better job
163 00:11:37 of patching him up.
164 00:11:39 Ah.
165 00:11:41 Well, I'm not sure he wantedto be patched up.
166 00:11:44 Hmm.
167 00:11:46 Look, I know it's a cheek,but could you talk to him?
168 00:11:50 I'm not a psychological doctor.
169 00:11:52 No, he might listen to you.
170 00:11:54 Sorry, shouldn't have asked.
171 00:11:58 The matter of his leg.
172 00:12:00 Might he be more opento treatment for that?
173 00:12:04 Yes.
174 00:12:07 I'll ask him.
175 00:12:09 Thank you.
176 00:12:17 Right. Come on, Gyp.
177 00:12:19 That's it.
178 00:12:20 Caroline tells me
179 00:12:22 this is a favor.
180 00:12:23 Oh, no.
181 00:12:25 There's a mutual benefit.
182 00:12:28 You get the treatmentand I write it up.
183 00:12:31 See, the accepted wisdomis that induction coils
184 00:12:33 are only goodfor fresh injuries, but, uh,
185 00:12:35 I've got a hunch.
186 00:12:36 Good Lord, it's like somethingout of Frankenstein.
187 00:12:39 It's notas dramatic as it looks,
188 00:12:41 I promise you.
189 00:12:43 So you work and sleepin here, then?
190 00:12:45 Yes. When I first came home
191 00:12:47 I couldn't be doingwith stairs.
192 00:12:49 I actually prefer it now.
193 00:12:51 Helps me keep on topof things, you know.
194 00:12:53 Difficult times for estateslike Hundreds.
195 00:12:57 With death duties at 75%?
196 00:12:59 I'll say. Labour governmentwon't be happy
197 00:13:02 until we're begging forour lives on street corners.
198 00:13:04 Perhaps you feel the same way,I don't know.
199 00:13:06 Why would I?
200 00:13:09 No.
201 00:13:12 Do you mind?
202 00:13:17 Anyway, I'm, uh,
203 00:13:19 selling some landto the council.
204 00:13:22 Selling land?
205 00:13:24 Just some scrubbehind the sheep sheds.
206 00:13:25 Bring in some power and waterto the farm,
207 00:13:27 make a big differenceto milking.
208 00:13:34 Christ.
209 00:13:35 Sit down, please.
210 00:13:39 It's actuallya very gentle sensation.
211 00:13:43 It might take away a littleof your pain.
212 00:13:45 - Right.- May I?
213 00:13:46 Yes.
214 00:13:49 I wouldn't bother, except I'mjust so slow about the place.
215 00:13:55 Can't keep up with the men.
216 00:13:57 Pretty foul, isn't it?
217 00:13:58 I've seen worse.
218 00:14:16 Not too bad, actually.
219 00:14:20 Sort of hotting up.
220 00:14:23 Huh.
221 00:14:46 You're a wizard, Dr. Faraday.
222 00:14:48 I really don't know howto thank you.
223 00:14:51 Well, perhaps you'd considerthis an act of restitution.
224 00:14:56 A long time ago,as a grubby-kneed boy,
225 00:14:59 I snuck up and stole somethingfrom this house.
226 00:15:04 Really?
227 00:15:05 One of your plaster acorns.
228 00:15:08 Oh. Oh, but that's too funny.
229 00:15:10 I don't know what came over me.
230 00:15:11 I was such an obedient boyas a rule.
231 00:15:13 Oh, no, but Roddie and I
232 00:15:14 have snapped off hundredsof the silly, twiddly things.
233 00:15:18 They were just askingto be vandalized.
234 00:15:20 I wasn't intendingto vandalize.
235 00:15:22 I was overwhelmedby admiration.
236 00:15:25 Like a man stealinga lock of hair
237 00:15:26 from the girl he's fallenblindly in love with.
238 00:15:28 Mother almost died of shamewhen she found out.
239 00:15:32 - Did she make you own up?- Heavens, no.
240 00:15:34 She burned it in the grate.
241 00:15:36 We never spoke of it again,
242 00:15:38 but I don't thinkshe ever forgave me.
243 00:15:39 Well, you're forgiven now.
244 00:15:41 I forgive you.
245 00:15:43 It is queer, isn't it?
246 00:15:45 That you were herebefore Rod and me.
247 00:15:48 There was a child here then.
248 00:15:50 Susan.
249 00:15:52 Susan died before I was born.
250 00:15:54 - Yes.- Mummy.
251 00:15:56 I'm afraid I washorribly jealous of her.
252 00:15:58 She seemed to have sucha charmed existence.
253 00:16:02 One can't see into the future.
254 00:16:03 Don't worry, Doctor.
255 00:16:05 We're all jealous of Suki,not just you.
256 00:16:10 Swallow.
257 00:16:12 They should be gone by now.
258 00:16:18 Are you off back to Lidcote?
259 00:16:20 I have a patient in Edgworth,another in Hawthend.
260 00:16:23 Why don't you cut acrossand use the east gate?
261 00:16:26 It's much quicker.
262 00:16:27 Do you know the way?
263 00:16:28 I think so.
264 00:16:30 And, look, would it helpto use the park sometimes,
265 00:16:32 as a shortcut?
266 00:16:36 Thank you.
267 00:16:51 The treatment continued
268 00:16:53 to yield results overthe weeks that followed,
269 00:16:55 and a kind of relationshipdeveloped with poor Rod.
270 00:16:59 I saw at close hand howutterly overwhelmed he was
271 00:17:01 by the businessof running Hundreds.
272 00:17:03 I couldn't help feelingthe house deserved better.
273 00:17:08 And my heart went outto Caroline,
274 00:17:09 in many waysso much more able,
275 00:17:12 forced to watchits continued decline.
276 00:17:15 I resolved to help heras much as I could.
277 00:17:18 Miss Ayres,what brings you to town?
278 00:17:20 Oh, Doctor.
279 00:17:21 Well, uh, Rod and Mother
280 00:17:24 are seeing the solicitorabout the land sale.
281 00:17:26 Thought I'd come for the ride.
282 00:17:28 You never know when I'll getanother chance.
283 00:17:29 So, when she asked
284 00:17:31 if I would make up the numbersat a small affair
285 00:17:32 - to welcome new neighbors...- Oh, Caroline.
286 00:17:34 - They've been invited over.- Can we manage?
287 00:17:36 Well, we'll have to, won't we?
288 00:17:38 Oh, Doctor, you'll come, too,won't you?
289 00:17:43 ...it really did seem
290 00:17:44 the least I could do.
291 00:18:17 Hello?
292 00:19:06 Betty.
293 00:19:07 Um, I'm sorry, Doctor.
294 00:19:10 Let me help.
295 00:19:11 Everything's jumpy tonight.
296 00:19:13 Betty! Are you all right?
297 00:19:21 Oh, Doctor.
298 00:19:23 Welcome.
299 00:19:24 Forgive me. I rang, but...
300 00:19:26 Afraid I've been pinningthe house back together.
301 00:19:29 So I see.
302 00:19:31 My darling brother'sstill in Lidcote,
303 00:19:33 arguing with the builderabout the land sale.
304 00:19:35 I do hope they're not drinkingto seal the deal.
305 00:19:38 Ah, speaking of which,help yourself.
306 00:19:40 If there are any glasses left.
307 00:19:43 Pay no attention.
308 00:19:44 And I thinkyou look very smart, Betty.
309 00:19:47 Oh, I should warn you...
310 00:19:50 the acousticsin this room are uncanny.
311 00:19:54 Every word carries.
312 00:19:59 You, Miss Ayres,look beautiful.
313 00:20:04 He hasn't toucheda drop yet, Gyp.
314 00:20:08 Pour for me, too, would you?
315 00:20:10 One would have hoped
316 00:20:12 the weathermight have held off.
317 00:20:13 Sadly, no.
318 00:20:15 Mr. and Mrs. Rossiter
319 00:20:17 - and Miss...- Dabney.

326 00:20:29 - Good evening.- Oh, I...
327 00:20:31 I hope no one's unwell.
328 00:20:33 Oh, no. The doctor is a guest.
329 00:20:35 Ah. One of us.
330 00:20:38 Will Roderick be joining usthis evening?

339 00:21:04 so I knew the area wellas a child.
340 00:21:06 And, of course, my brother'swith us most weekends.
341 00:21:09 Perhaps he should move up here.
342 00:21:10 - If only I didn't have to work.- Come back.
343 00:21:12 What is it you do, Mr. Morley?
344 00:21:14 I'm in the ad business.
345 00:21:16 An accountant?

347 00:21:20 It's an American outfit.
348 00:21:22 Ah, America.

357 00:21:58 Roderick.
358 00:22:08 I'm not coming.
359 00:22:12 Tell Mother I'm sorry.
360 00:22:18 Look, Rod, put your drink down.

363 00:22:25 I've told you...
364 00:22:27 I won't.
365 00:22:29 - For God's sake...- I can't.
366 00:22:34 I've got a bad feeling,Faraday.
367 00:22:39 A very bad feeling.
368 00:22:44 - Christ, don't you?- Stop.
369 00:22:47 Stop that nonsense.
370 00:22:48 Stop it at once.
371 00:22:53 Now get dressed.
372 00:22:58 Have you traveled much?
373 00:23:00 Well, I wanted to...
374 00:23:02 Gyp, wait! Why won't he comeand play with me?
375 00:23:06 He won't stay still.
376 00:23:08 Well, perhapsyou should stay still.
377 00:23:10 Gillian, darling.
378 00:23:12 Goodness. Is that allowed?
379 00:23:15 Well, I don't believe in rules
380 00:23:17 just for the sake of them.
381 00:23:18 Breeds all sorts of neuroses.
382 00:23:20 You don't want them gettinga complex.
383 00:23:21 - I never go to bed before midnight.- Ah.
384 00:23:24 And I once smoked a cigarette.
385 00:23:27 I hardly think Dr.Faraday would approve of that.
386 00:23:30 No. But then my motherwas very hot on rules.
387 00:23:33 And it hasn't done himany harm.
388 00:23:35 Gillian, lookat that beautiful piano.
389 00:23:38 It's a spinet, you philistine.
390 00:23:40 Actually,it's a Flemish virginal.
391 00:23:41 Do play us something, Tony.
392 00:23:43 - Gyp.- As long as it's not too old and fragile.
393 00:23:47 Come on.
394 00:23:48 - Let's see.- See, we're friends now.
395 00:23:51 Gillian, dear, please leavethat poor dog alone.
396 00:23:54 Where is Roderick?
397 00:23:57 He'll be,he'll be with us shortly.
398 00:24:00 He's rather overdone itat the farm.
399 00:24:03 Mm.
400 00:24:07 What a lovely sound.
401 00:24:09 It is, isn't it?It's very light.
402 00:24:13 Oh, that's it.
403 00:24:14 - Good boy.- Caroline used to love playing.
404 00:24:28 He does play awfully well.
405 00:24:30 Yes, he does.
406 00:24:31 Such a gentle dog.
407 00:24:33 I had no ideathe son was so bad.
408 00:24:36 That why they keep you on hand?
409 00:24:39 I'm a guest here, like you.
410 00:24:40 Oh, no, pal.
411 00:24:42 I'm just making up the numberswhile my wife and our hostess
412 00:24:46 try matchmaking.
413 00:24:47 I don't like their chances.
414 00:24:49 Tony may be a prize ass,
415 00:24:52 but he likes a pretty face.
416 00:25:03 Gillian.
417 00:25:06 What is it?
418 00:25:07 Gillian!
419 00:25:09 - Gyp, Gyp, come back.- Gillian!
420 00:25:19 You can't meanto treat her here!
421 00:25:21 It's nine milesto the nearest hospital.
422 00:25:24 Open the door.
423 00:25:25 Open the door!
424 00:25:27 Clear the table.
425 00:25:32 It's all right.
426 00:25:34 - Please.- Hold her still.
427 00:25:35 Betty, I need boiling water.
428 00:25:38 - Hold her still.- Please.
429 00:25:44 Hold that there.Hold that there.
430 00:25:46 Shh, darling.
431 00:25:47 - Shh.- Mrs. Baker-Hyde might want to wait upstairs.
432 00:25:50 No, I'm staying!
433 00:25:51 Diana, do as he says.
434 00:25:53 Diana... come on.
435 00:25:57 Betty, make surethey're getting blankets.
436 00:26:13 Bloody dog should be shot.
437 00:26:14 Shh.
438 00:26:45 The child will beterribly marked, won't she?
439 00:26:52 I don't understand whythey had to bring her.
440 00:26:55 Surely they have a nurseor a governess.
441 00:26:59 Probably think a governesswould give her a complex.
442 00:27:02 Well, she'll havea complex now, won't she?
443 00:27:04 Oh, Caroline.
444 00:27:05 Good night.
445 00:27:30 I tried to tell you.
446 00:27:33 Didn't I?
447 00:28:17 Miss Caroline's downstairs.
448 00:28:29 Came as soonas you could, then.
449 00:28:32 We might have taken thisto court, you know.
450 00:28:34 I should have foundthe money somehow.
451 00:28:36 With the child so injured,it wouldn't be decent.
452 00:28:44 Take him.
453 00:28:47 Everything else has gone.
454 00:28:49 Why not take him, too?
455 00:28:52 Caroline.
456 00:28:54 Get away, you stupid dog.
457 00:28:56 God.
458 00:29:14 Shh.
459 00:29:17 Shh.
460 00:29:20 Good dog.
461 00:29:40 Walk away, Faraday.
462 00:29:41 Distance yourselffrom the whole damn mess.
463 00:29:46 Eh, the leg treatmentmust be almost finished.
464 00:29:50 Write up what you'vealready done.
465 00:29:52 Surely that's enough.
466 00:29:56 Seriously.
467 00:29:58 People like the Ayres...
468 00:30:01 they'll run you bloody raggedif you let them.
469 00:30:42 Yes.
470 00:30:44 The problem is your heart,Mrs. Ravensdale.
471 00:30:47 It's not doingits job properly,
472 00:30:49 and that's causingthe shortness of breath
473 00:30:51 and the swelling.
474 00:30:52 Couldn't be somethingI've eaten?
475 00:30:55 I'm afraid not.
476 00:31:02 John.
477 00:31:08 Mrs. Evans.
478 00:31:09 Come through, please.
479 00:31:11 Alfie, come on.
480 00:31:29 Leave it.
481 00:31:30 Leave it!
482 00:31:33 Go on!
483 00:31:34 Go on, I'll catch you up.
484 00:31:36 He's had enough, hasn't he?
485 00:31:39 Blasted thing.
486 00:31:42 Please sit down.
487 00:31:45 Thank you.
488 00:31:56 So...
489 00:31:58 Hmm.
490 00:32:04 I just signed a contractwith Babb, you see.
491 00:32:07 The land sale?
492 00:32:10 That is good news.
493 00:32:12 Yes.
494 00:32:14 Yes, we ought to hang outthe flags.
495 00:32:19 The men are cock-a-hoop,of course.
496 00:32:24 How are the mighty fallen, hey?
497 00:32:28 Just think how much betterthings will be now.
498 00:32:31 Hmm.
499 00:32:34 But they won't.
500 00:32:36 Come on, I'm sure they will.
501 00:32:38 Don't say that, Faraday.
502 00:32:43 You don't know whatyou're talking about.
503 00:32:50 I should catch them up,it's my round.
504 00:32:52 You'd be surprised how much
505 00:32:53 of my job is just listeningto people.
506 00:33:07 - Hell.- Rod.
507 00:33:11 Why don't you tell mewhat's going on?
508 00:33:15 I've been concerned about you.
509 00:33:18 You wouldn't believe me.
510 00:33:20 Of course I will.
511 00:33:23 And I'm a doctor.
512 00:33:26 Anything you tell me isin the strictest confidence.
513 00:33:28 There's a thing in that house.
514 00:33:33 A thing?
515 00:33:34 It hates me.
516 00:33:38 It always has.
517 00:33:41 And ever since that awful night
518 00:33:44 with the girl...
519 00:33:49 Go on.
520 00:33:51 It wants me gone.
521 00:33:56 I'm telling you.
522 00:34:02 Dr. Faraday.
523 00:34:04 Oh.
524 00:34:05 Doctor.
525 00:34:07 - Were we expecting you?- Forgive me.
526 00:34:09 I was visiting a patientin the area.
527 00:34:12 We've had a leakin the morning room.
528 00:34:14 Got in the cupboards.
529 00:34:15 Oh, my brothers.
530 00:34:17 Doctor, look.
531 00:34:20 Within six months of this,the fighting had started
532 00:34:21 and they were lost.
533 00:34:38 Suki.
534 00:34:41 Like sweethearts, she and I.
535 00:34:43 You're right to be touchedby this scene, Doctor.
536 00:34:47 This was my little girl'slast happy day.
537 00:34:51 By night she was alreadyquite ill.
538 00:34:53 Mother.I've boxed up some old books
539 00:34:56 to give to the Red Cross.
540 00:34:58 I wonder if Dr. Faradaymight take them
541 00:34:59 to Lidcote in his car.
542 00:35:00 Of course.
543 00:35:02 Betty.
544 00:35:09 I, uh...
545 00:35:11 - I feel awkward coming.- No, don't.
546 00:35:12 I'm so glad you did.
547 00:35:15 I've just seen Rod in Lidcote.
548 00:35:19 Oh, God, is he in a bad way?
549 00:35:22 I'm concerned abouthis state of mind.
550 00:35:24 You're not the only one.
551 00:35:30 Last night he came upto my room so upset.
552 00:35:34 He said he could smell smoke,
553 00:35:36 and I couldn't smell anything.
554 00:35:39 It's like there'sa hoodoo on him.
555 00:35:41 It's nothing like that.
556 00:35:43 War shock.
557 00:35:47 We must keep it from Mother.
558 00:35:48 The land sale's alreadytoo much to bear.
559 00:35:51 I'm inclined to agree.
560 00:35:52 God knows how she'll cope
561 00:35:53 when Babb knocks downthe wall.
562 00:35:56 Why on earth would Babb needto knock down a wall?
563 00:35:58 Well, they wouldn't takethe pasture.
564 00:36:00 Didn't Rod say?
565 00:36:02 They'd only takethe grass-snake field.
566 00:36:04 Surely you can't meanto break up the park?
567 00:36:07 There must be some alternative.
568 00:36:09 - Believe me, he tried.- The sale must be stopped.
569 00:36:11 - What?- Rod's not of sound mind.
570 00:36:14 - This can be overturned.- Ah!
571 00:36:17 Doctor.
572 00:36:22 What's he been telling you?
573 00:36:24 That I'm cracked?
574 00:36:26 No. Of course not, Roddie.
575 00:36:28 So much for confidentiality.
576 00:36:33 Rod. Rod. I hadn't understoodabout the land sale.
577 00:36:37 Rod.
578 00:36:39 - This is terribly serious.- Damn right.
579 00:36:42 The mob will be at our doorany moment.
580 00:36:45 Cutlasses between their teeth.
581 00:36:49 You ought not to worry, Doctor.
582 00:36:50 You are from pirate stock.
583 00:36:53 Rod.
584 00:36:56 Oh, yes.
585 00:36:58 There'll be tricks tonight.
586 00:37:01 For God's sake,look at yourself.
587 00:37:05 You're afraid.
588 00:37:12 You can feel it.
589 00:37:14 Can't you?
590 00:37:16 I'm sorry.
591 00:37:17 Rod's in no fit state to bemaking irrevocable decisions.
592 00:37:19 You can feel it now?
593 00:37:21 - You can feel it.- I'm going to ask Dr. Granger
594 00:37:22 - for a second opinion.- Goddamn.
595 00:37:24 Who the fucking hell are you?
596 00:37:27 This is my house,
597 00:37:29 and I'll do as I likewith the damn place!
598 00:37:31 And it isn't any businessof yours!
599 00:37:35 What are you doing here?
600 00:37:37 You're not part of this family.
601 00:37:40 You are no one.
602 00:37:43 - Now get out!- Rod, please don't.
603 00:37:45 Get out of my house!
604 00:38:43 Please leave us.
605 00:38:44 What do you want?
606 00:38:52 I've tried to warn them,I've tried.
607 00:38:55 They wouldn't listen to me,please!
608 00:38:58 You've got to leave!
609 00:39:00 Just leave us, please!
610 00:39:01 Betty. Betty!
611 00:39:04 Roddie, open the door.Roddie!
612 00:39:26 I should never haveleft him here last night.
613 00:39:32 You placed your trust in me.
614 00:39:34 I let you down.
615 00:39:37 I shan't do so again.
616 00:40:06 Rod, Dr. Warren's here.
617 00:40:15 I'm sorry, Caroline.
618 00:40:20 It's too strong for me.
619 00:40:25 Rod.
620 00:40:37 A trip in a Humber...what a treat.
621 00:40:41 That's good.
622 00:41:04 There.
623 00:41:06 Mrs. Ayres?
624 00:41:07 Oh.
625 00:41:09 I hope it's not too dry.
626 00:41:12 Looks perfect.
627 00:41:13 - Thank you.- Caroline.
628 00:41:15 It does seem a shameBetty isn't here.
629 00:41:19 But how nice for her fatherto have her home for Christmas.
630 00:41:22 Mm.
631 00:41:34 Aren't you smart?
632 00:41:43 Thanks for coming today.
633 00:41:47 We'd have never survivedthese last few months
634 00:41:48 without you and Betty.
635 00:41:51 Would have been a grim daywith Rod's chair empty.
636 00:41:54 Christmas is generally grimfor aging bachelors.
637 00:41:58 I was very gladof an invitation
638 00:42:00 - that didn't make me feel like a charity case.- God, no.
639 00:42:02 We're the charity case.
640 00:42:04 You were lookingat the photograph?
641 00:42:06 Mm.
642 00:42:08 You know I'm in it?
643 00:42:10 No.
644 00:42:13 Oh, where?
645 00:42:15 Where? Can't see you.
646 00:42:18 That's the shoulderof my jacket.
647 00:42:21 Oh. Ah.
648 00:42:23 Upstaged by Susan.
649 00:42:25 Just like the rest of us.
650 00:42:26 It was a grand day otherwise.
651 00:42:30 Shall we have tea to warm up?
652 00:42:32 Yes. And why don't I make it?
653 00:42:38 You stay there.Doctor's orders.
654 00:42:45 Tom!
655 00:42:47 Come inside.
656 00:43:09 Sweetie.
657 00:43:10 The house itself was
658 00:43:12 out of bounds, of course.
659 00:43:13 - ...wander off, do what you like.- Elizabeth!
660 00:43:15 But as luck would have it,
661 00:43:17 Mother still had friendsamong the staff.
662 00:43:20 - How are you?- And so,
663 00:43:21 miraculously, it came to pass.
664 00:43:23 I was admitted.
665 00:43:29 I'm afraid I was spoiledthoroughly and given
666 00:43:33 the most fantastic treats.
667 00:43:35 It was any small boy's dream.
668 00:43:41 It made me feel,just for that moment,
669 00:43:44 a part of the lifeof the house.
670 00:43:48 Perhaps that explains,
671 00:43:50 to some degree, at least,what happened next.
672 00:44:42 My smart clothes that daywere all borrowed or begged,
673 00:44:47 but there, in that grand hallfilled with marvelous things...
674 00:44:52 I could not help imaginingthat I belonged.
675 00:44:56 A proper little gentleman.
676 00:45:12 Course, I was no such thing.
677 00:45:45 What are you doing there?
678 00:45:55 Get over here!
679 00:45:57 What are you doing?
680 00:45:59 I left behind
681 00:46:01 all such ambitions that day.
682 00:46:05 I don't want to heara word out of you.
683 00:46:07 Come with me right now.
684 00:46:09 Funny. A small thing
685 00:46:12 so many years ago.
686 00:46:16 Yet the memory's quite fresh.
687 00:46:29 Sit up, please,
688 00:46:32 Alan.
689 00:46:34 Hmm?
690 00:46:35 Chin up.
691 00:46:37 Now let's see if there's beenany improvement.
692 00:46:44 Open if you can.
693 00:46:47 Open.
694 00:46:51 Can you see who it is, Alan?
695 00:46:56 Well, well, well.
696 00:46:58 How wonderful.
697 00:47:00 - Thank you.- Good.
698 00:47:13 Good Lord.
699 00:47:15 24 houses in both fields,
700 00:47:17 most of themalready spoken for.
701 00:47:20 - What a terrible shame.- Oh.
702 00:47:22 I don't know.
703 00:47:24 - People have to live somewhere.- Dr. Faraday?
704 00:47:26 - Ah.- Mr. Babb.
705 00:47:28 I knew you'd be down,Miss Ayres.
706 00:47:29 Every day like clockwork.
707 00:47:31 She puts my foreman to shame.
708 00:47:33 I've promised Dr. Faradaythe tour.
709 00:47:36 Right, well, come on, then.
710 00:47:38 So, uh... a lounge.
711 00:47:42 - Hmm.- Fitted kitchen.
712 00:47:44 Gas stove, electric points.
713 00:47:46 Bathroom with a built-in tub.
714 00:47:48 Gosh. Think what a differencethis would make to people.
715 00:47:51 There'll be nothingto beat these
716 00:47:52 in the way of air and drainage.
717 00:47:54 You're right about the houses.
718 00:47:56 My mother would have liked one.
719 00:48:00 She might be aliveand living in one
720 00:48:02 if she hadn't worked herselfinto an early grave
721 00:48:03 to get me an education.
722 00:48:05 I'm sureshe was very proud of you.
723 00:48:07 Your father, too.
724 00:48:09 All I learned wasto be ashamed of them.
725 00:48:14 God, what an utterwet blanket I'm being.
726 00:48:16 You must be wishingI hadn't called by.
727 00:48:18 No, not at all.
728 00:48:20 I'm grateful.
729 00:48:22 It gets so lonely sometimeswithout Roddie.
730 00:48:24 These short days don't help.
731 00:48:27 They just make me wantto get out.
732 00:48:29 - Out where?- Yeah, well, I'm not fussy.
733 00:48:31 You know, just to bewhere people are for a while.
734 00:48:34 When you sayyou're not fussy...?
735 00:48:53 Right. I want all the scandal.
736 00:48:56 Who's killed the most patients,
737 00:48:58 which doctors are goingto bed with which nurses.
738 00:49:01 - Faraday.- Ah, Bland.
739 00:49:03 You can't be thinking of takingthat down unadulterated.
740 00:49:06 Here.
741 00:49:08 Fresh from the test tube.
742 00:49:11 - No... -I don't...- Ah.
743 00:49:13 Hmm.
744 00:49:15 Cheers.
745 00:49:21 Ah, Faraday,
746 00:49:23 well doneon that paper of yours.
747 00:49:24 Hope it goes down wellin London.
748 00:49:26 Thank you, Hewitt.That's kind of you.
749 00:49:29 Goodness, you're quitethe somebody.
750 00:49:31 - London?- Not at all.
751 00:49:33 And I haven't even acceptedthe invitation yet.
752 00:49:36 Gosh, why wouldn't you?
753 00:49:40 Come on, let's find yousomeone to dance with.
754 00:49:42 Oh, no, no, no, no.No, no, no.
755 00:49:43 They'll all be longingfor a turn
756 00:49:45 with some pretty young nurse.
757 00:49:48 You and I can dance, can't we?
758 00:49:52 Mm-hmm.
759 00:50:01 I suddenly feel nervous.
760 00:50:03 Close your eyes.
761 00:50:11 - Oh, you dance very well.- You, too.
762 00:50:13 My father taught mewhen I was small.
763 00:50:16 Am I talking too much?
764 00:50:18 Talk all you like.
765 00:50:22 What are you grinning about?
766 00:50:24 You look like a dancer in a contest.
767 00:50:26 Have they pinned a numberto your back?
768 00:50:31 Ooh, there's Dr. Seeley.
769 00:50:33 Look at his bow tie.
770 00:50:35 Whiz me around so you cantake a look.
771 00:50:36 Do you knowhe's nicknamed The Octopus?
772 00:50:40 Always terribly keento give girls a lift home.
773 00:50:43 Hands everywhere.
774 00:51:02 Faraday!
775 00:51:04 Ah, Caroline,you know, uh, David Granger.
776 00:51:07 - Oh, yes.- Hello.
777 00:51:08 - And this is Anne Gra... yeah.- Anne Granger.
778 00:51:10 - Caroline Ayres.- Lovely to meet you.
779 00:51:11 - You, too.- Oh, let me introduce our friend
780 00:51:13 - Bre...- Brenda?
781 00:51:14 - Oh.- I can't believe it.
782 00:51:19 Oh, gosh, Brenda and I kneweach other years ago.
783 00:51:21 Back in the war. How are you?
784 00:51:23 No introduction required.
785 00:51:41 Good to see Carolineout and about.
786 00:51:43 She's a super girl.
787 00:51:50 Ladies and gentlemen,
788 00:51:52 please take the floorfor Paul Jones.
789 00:51:56 - Shall we?- Now don't be shy.
790 00:51:57 - Here's your chance to join her. Come on.- No.
791 00:52:00 - Come on, Faraday.- No.
792 00:52:01 - In for a penny.- All right.
793 00:52:03 Ladies on the outside.
794 00:52:07 - Oh.- Gosh, hello.
795 00:52:16 This is murder!
796 00:52:18 Oh!
797 00:52:21 Oh.
798 00:52:22 Oh, it is.Hello, Seeley. How are you?
799 00:52:24 - Looking as pretty as a picture.- Thank you.
800 00:52:26 Here we go.
801 00:52:31 Hey! Hey!
802 00:52:49 Hey! Hey!
803 00:53:02 Nights like this,I feel my age.
804 00:53:06 Good dancer, Caroline Ayres.
805 00:53:08 She's got hips and she knowswhat to do with them.
806 00:53:11 Pity she hasn't the looksto match.
807 00:53:14 Don't let that stop you.
808 00:53:16 Girl like thatneeds an outlet.
809 00:53:19 Oh, come on.
810 00:53:20 Everyone knows how much timeyou've been spending out there.
811 00:53:26 Do they indeed?
812 00:53:28 I'm telling you, Faraday,make your move tonight before
813 00:53:33 that fool in the horn-rimmedglasses makes his.
814 00:53:36 Valerie, darling.
815 00:53:38 - Seeley, I heard you were here.- Have you been ignoring me?
816 00:53:40 Now, you promised me...
817 00:53:48 Shall I light you one?
818 00:53:51 - I can light my own.- Oh, come on.
819 00:53:53 Let me...like they do in the pictures.
820 00:54:11 No, no, no.Hands on the wheel.
821 00:54:13 It's icy, remember?
822 00:54:23 There.
823 00:54:26 Don't much like Brenda.
824 00:54:28 I'd never have guessed.
825 00:54:33 Think she thoughtyou and I were at it.
826 00:54:35 You know.
827 00:54:38 Hope you put her swiftly right.
828 00:54:46 Did you?
829 00:54:49 I told her the truth.
830 00:54:53 A friend of the familybeing kind.
831 00:54:58 God.
832 00:55:01 My feet are perished. Ugh.
833 00:55:23 Oh, gosh.
834 00:55:26 It's not long now.
835 00:55:29 I don't want to go home.
836 00:55:33 Take me somewhere else,can't you?
837 00:55:35 - It's past 2:00.- Care for a walk?
838 00:55:39 In dancing shoes?
839 00:55:41 Please, Faraday,
840 00:55:43 I don't want to go home yet.
841 00:56:57 Oh, my God.
842 00:57:13 - Mmm.- Sorry. Sorry. Can't, can't.
843 00:57:15 No, can't! Can't! Can't!
844 00:57:16 God's sake.
845 00:57:18 I thought you wanted to.
846 00:57:19 So did I. I can't.
847 00:57:21 Wait.
848 00:57:23 Caroline, please,Caroline, wait.
849 00:57:35 After approximately 15 minutes
850 00:57:38 of the current being appliedto the leg,
851 00:57:41 the patient's pulse rate rose,as had been anticipated,
852 00:57:44 and there was a slight fallin blood pressure.
853 00:57:47 There was no pain associatedwith the procedure,
854 00:57:50 and afterwardsa marked increase
855 00:57:52 in general mobilityof the joint was observed.
856 00:57:54 Positive effects diminishedover time.
857 00:57:57 Yes, we've got some reallyinteresting work here.
858 00:57:59 You should thinkabout staying on.
859 00:58:01 I'm flatteredthey asked, but...
860 00:58:03 Mmm. So, where did you train?
861 00:58:06 Up in Birmingham.Stayed on there for a while.
862 00:58:09 Then got secondedto a military hospital
863 00:58:11 in Plymouthafter we pulled out of Dieppe.
864 00:58:13 - Must have been busy.- Hellish.
865 00:58:16 I'm at a practicein Warwickshire now.
866 00:58:18 It's a backwater, really.
867 00:58:20 Cheers.
868 00:58:22 So, uh, are youa family man, or...?
869 00:58:26 No.
870 00:58:27 Well, for heaven's sake,move to London.
871 00:58:31 What's stopping you?Charles, don't you think
872 00:58:34 Faraday should move to London?
873 00:58:36 I think it's a fine idea, yeah.
874 00:58:47 Yes?
875 00:58:49 Welcome back.
876 00:58:51 Is everything all right?
877 00:58:53 Absolutely. Just...
878 00:58:55 curious about how it went.
879 00:58:57 The bright lights, all that?
880 00:58:59 Yes. Interesting.
881 00:59:03 Sorry.
882 00:59:06 Rather a difficultfirst day back.
883 00:59:09 13-year-old over in Illescote,pregnant
884 00:59:12 till the father beat it outof her.
885 00:59:14 Oh, God, grim.
886 00:59:15 Sorry, Faraday.
887 00:59:17 One feels so useless.
888 00:59:19 Rather wonder whyI bothered coming back.
889 00:59:20 Oh, don't say that.
890 00:59:22 I missed you.
891 00:59:28 And... Caroline calleda couple of days ago.
892 00:59:32 Mrs. Ayres had some kind of...
893 00:59:34 well... turn.
894 00:59:37 They weren'tawfully forthcoming about it.
895 00:59:39 I couldn't find much wrongwith her.
896 00:59:42 You went to Hundreds?
897 00:59:44 I did.
898 00:59:47 I tell you,I couldn't leave fast enough.
899 00:59:49 I feel for Caroline,stuck out there.
900 00:59:54 She's the best of the bunchby a mile.
901 01:00:12 - Doctor, I want...- Miss Ayres.
902 01:00:15 Can we please start again?
903 01:00:26 So tell me what happened.
904 01:00:29 Don't really know.
905 01:00:32 I feel silly now.
906 01:00:41 We don't come in here often.
907 01:00:43 You know, not anymore.
908 01:00:46 But we were checking for leaksand we heard a...
909 01:00:49 It sounds stupid, but we hearda sort of knocking sound.
910 01:00:55 Down there.
911 01:01:01 We found these marks.
912 01:01:03 You know, I thought
913 01:01:05 it must've beenthat little girl at first.
914 01:01:08 But Betty cleaned up,you know, after...
915 01:01:12 She would have noticed.
916 01:01:17 They won't come off.
917 01:01:24 Well, that's not all.
918 01:01:27 Mother was wokenby something in the night.
919 01:01:30 She thought a bird had got in.
920 01:01:33 She called Betty,and they searched
921 01:01:35 her dressing room for it.
922 01:01:37 Well, I love this one.
923 01:01:39 That was my favorite
924 01:01:41 when I was your age.
925 01:01:42 Go on, try it.
926 01:01:43 Okay.
927 01:01:46 Oh, Dr. Faraday. Look at us.
928 01:01:49 Wait. Now.
929 01:01:51 Betty.
930 01:01:53 - Come on.- Oh, madam, shall I?
931 01:01:54 The doctor disapproves
932 01:01:57 of our frivolity.
933 01:01:59 I'm happyto see you looking so well.
934 01:02:01 Caroline told meyou'd been unsettled.
935 01:02:04 Ah, you meanafter my discovery.
936 01:02:08 Might I see?
937 01:03:14 Suki.
938 01:03:17 After all this time,I didn't suppose
939 01:03:19 there was much traceof her left.
940 01:03:39 Your mother's heart rate'sa little elevated.
941 01:03:41 It's hardly surprising.Otherwise,
942 01:03:44 - she's in perfect health.- Oh, for God's sake, Faraday.
943 01:03:47 Right. Shall I explain
944 01:03:50 what happened?
945 01:03:51 Look... the marks downstairs
946 01:03:55 you found by accident, yes?
947 01:03:58 But they triggereda buried memory
948 01:04:00 for your mother,so she remembered the others.
949 01:04:02 And the new marks today?
950 01:04:04 They're not new.
951 01:04:06 Those marks,whilst disturbing...
952 01:04:09 even I felt that...
953 01:04:10 they're nothing morethan they appear.
954 01:04:12 And what aboutthe knocking sound?
955 01:04:14 It's the heating pipes,I imagine.
956 01:04:15 No, we haven't hadthe heating on
957 01:04:17 - for months.- Then the pipes contracting
958 01:04:18 in the cold.
959 01:04:22 Caroline, you mustn't letthis business get inside you.
960 01:04:26 It can all be explained.
961 01:04:35 Faraday...
962 01:04:38 I'm so glad you're here.
963 01:04:42 When I'm alone,I can't tell anymore.
964 01:04:48 Whenever you go away,something horrible happens.
965 01:04:51 Dear girl.
966 01:04:58 There's some talk
967 01:05:00 of my going back permanently.
968 01:05:03 To live in London?
969 01:05:05 I should have to think aboutwhat I was leaving behind.
970 01:05:07 Not much.
971 01:05:09 Lidcote would seem likea bad dream in no time.
972 01:05:11 I meant in terms of you and me.
973 01:05:16 Well, look, Faraday,that time in the car, I...
974 01:05:20 I behaved like a fool.
975 01:05:21 - I was the fool.- No.
976 01:05:23 Caroline, I've-I've missed you.
977 01:05:25 I've missed you like hell.
978 01:05:27 God.
979 01:05:29 What a bloody idiotyou've made of me.
980 01:05:32 I shouldn't have left you.
981 01:05:35 I won't do it again.
982 01:05:42 Look...
983 01:05:45 you perfect child.
984 01:05:50 Be no moreof this sort of thing,
985 01:05:51 you know, once we're married.
986 01:05:52 - You're not a skivvy.- Faraday, what...?
987 01:05:54 Just say yes, Caroline.
988 01:05:57 Just say yes.
989 01:06:00 Hmm?
990 01:06:02 What this house needs isa big dose of happiness.
991 01:06:17 Oh.
992 01:06:19 It's done.
993 01:06:22 Hmm.
994 01:06:40 We haven'tannounced it formally yet
995 01:06:41 because Caroline's shy.
996 01:06:43 And there's the questionof Mrs. Ayres.
997 01:06:45 Have you told her?
998 01:06:47 We didn't want to worry her
999 01:06:48 before we'd clarifiedour plans.
1000 01:06:50 Do you think she'll approve?
1001 01:06:52 I think she'll be delighted.
1002 01:06:55 Well, it's terrific news.
1003 01:06:57 Congratulations.
1004 01:07:23 What are you up to?
1005 01:07:25 Writing to Roderick.
1006 01:07:28 Have you told him about us?
1007 01:07:33 Betty could come in any moment.
1008 01:07:39 She'll have to get usedto catching us kissing.
1009 01:07:42 She'll be bringing useggs and bacon in bed
1010 01:07:44 in the mornings.
1011 01:07:45 But if we were married,we wouldn't be here.
1012 01:07:48 You wouldn't rather liveabove the surgery?
1013 01:07:51 We can hardly abandonyour mother.
1014 01:07:54 You can't think she'llaccept us living with her?
1015 01:07:58 - In any case, what about London?- London?
1016 01:08:01 I turned down the positionto stay here with you.
1017 01:08:04 You never said you did that.
1018 01:08:05 I thought it was obvious. Look,
1019 01:08:07 don't worry about your mother.
1020 01:08:09 She'll come around.
1021 01:08:10 - She won't.- She will.
1022 01:08:12 She'll have to.
1023 01:08:15 Betty, what are you doing here?
1024 01:08:17 Well, you rang for me, miss.
1025 01:08:19 I did not.
1026 01:08:21 It must have been Mother.
1027 01:08:22 Well, Mrs. Ayres is upstairs.
1028 01:08:23 It was this bell that rung.
1029 01:08:25 Rang itself, did it?
1030 01:08:27 Well, I don't know, but...
1031 01:08:29 Go and see what she wants.
1032 01:08:33 Oh, and by the way,
1033 01:08:35 all the water's gone brown.
1034 01:08:39 Babb must have hit a pipe.
1035 01:08:42 You have it your way...for now.
1036 01:08:46 I'll go and check on Babb.
1037 01:09:07 Told you.
1038 01:09:09 Dining room. See?
1039 01:09:12 Mother might have woken up.
1040 01:09:16 Go and seeif she needs anything, hmm?
1041 01:09:19 Betty?
1042 01:09:23 That was Mother's bedroom.
1043 01:09:43 Oh, damn it, come on.
1044 01:09:53 Mice.
1045 01:09:57 What's all this noise?
1046 01:09:59 Mice.
1047 01:10:00 There's some poisonat the farm.
1048 01:10:02 I'll run and get some.
1049 01:10:08 Nursery.
1050 01:10:10 It's just them mice, madam.
1051 01:10:23 Come.
1052 01:10:25 Come. Come listen.
1053 01:10:39 What do you hear?
1054 01:10:46 I don't know.
1055 01:10:51 We must check upstairs.
1056 01:10:53 Well, let's waitfor Miss Caroline.
1057 01:10:58 Madam, wait.
1058 01:11:10 Please, let's waitfor Miss Caroline.
1059 01:11:12 You stay if you like.
1060 01:11:13 What have I to fearin a nursery?
1061 01:11:47 Susan?
1062 01:11:51 Susan?
1063 01:12:09 Betty?
1064 01:12:11 Betty?!
1065 01:12:13 Betty!
1066 01:12:18 Betty, unlock the door.
1067 01:12:21 Betty, unlock...
1068 01:12:23 the door!
1069 01:12:25 Betty.
1070 01:12:56 Caroline!
1071 01:14:25 Rod was right.
1072 01:14:27 There's somethingin this house that hates us.
1073 01:14:30 That's nonsense, Caroline.
1074 01:14:32 No, we're so changed...from even a year ago.
1075 01:14:36 I knew this househad summat bad.
1076 01:14:39 We told you.
1077 01:14:41 When did you tell him?
1078 01:14:43 First time I felt it.
1079 01:14:47 Mrs. Ayres believes me.
1080 01:14:49 - You told Mrs. Ayres?- She said it was a ghost
1081 01:14:52 and not to worry.It wouldn't do no harm.
1082 01:14:54 No harm?
1083 01:14:56 Does this look like no harmto you, Betty?
1084 01:15:00 No one's blaming you, Betty.
1085 01:15:03 You've been very brave.
1086 01:15:08 We failed her.
1087 01:15:10 - Shh.- My beautiful girl.
1088 01:15:15 I wanted her so desperately.
1089 01:15:17 But when she came...I was afraid.
1090 01:15:21 Mrs. Ayres,your mind is playing tricks.
1091 01:15:23 You need to rest.
1092 01:15:25 - I'm not an invalid.- I'm the doctor here.
1093 01:15:29 You must allow me to decidewho the invalids are.
1094 01:15:31 And you must rememberwhose house this is.
1095 01:15:35 Stop. Stop, please.
1096 01:15:43 I'm so sorry, Mama.
1097 01:15:49 What have you to be sorry for?
1098 01:16:06 Difficult job?
1099 01:16:09 Seeley.
1100 01:16:11 Routine tonsillectomy.
1101 01:16:13 I made a pig's ear of it.
1102 01:16:16 Yes, well,it's too many night calls.
1103 01:16:18 I know the feeling.
1104 01:16:20 Are you finished for the day?
1105 01:16:27 I just feelthings are out of control.
1106 01:16:30 This business seemsalmost contagious.
1107 01:16:34 I was medical officerat a girls' school for a while.
1108 01:16:38 One time there wasthis fashion for fainting.
1109 01:16:40 Girls going down like ninepins.
1110 01:16:43 Eventuallytheir mistresses, too.
1111 01:16:44 That's just it.
1112 01:16:46 I don't know where it will end.
1113 01:16:49 Caroline has begun to believe
1114 01:16:51 there's something supernaturalinvolved.
1115 01:16:53 - -Some malevolentforce in the house.
1116 01:16:55 And it's madness,I know, but...
1117 01:17:01 I'm beginning to wonder myself.
1118 01:17:05 What exactly are you saying?
1119 01:17:10 We all subscribeto the general principle
1120 01:17:11 of a conscious personality
1121 01:17:13 with a sortof dream self attached.
1122 01:17:17 You're suggesting
1123 01:17:19 this subconscious selfcould somehow...?
1124 01:17:22 Detachunder sufficient pressure.
1125 01:17:27 Become mischievous or malign.
1126 01:17:29 Acting outall the nasty impulses
1127 01:17:31 the conscious mindwants hidden?
1128 01:17:46 Isn't that the old theory
1129 01:17:49 of the poltergeist?
1130 01:17:51 Oh, God.
1131 01:17:53 Then there isn't an ounceof science in it.
1132 01:17:55 Oh, no, no. Not so fast.
1133 01:17:57 - You might be on to something.- Hmm?
1134 01:18:00 What if science has yet to finda way to measure such things?
1135 01:18:03 Look at my fainting females.
1136 01:18:06 It is generally women at theroot of this stuff, of course.
1137 01:18:13 Don't they havesome young housemaid
1138 01:18:15 stuck out at Hundreds,no one to flirt with?
1139 01:18:19 Betty's a child still.
1140 01:18:21 Mmm, and children are capableof the most intense desire.
1141 01:18:32 Thank you for walking me.
1142 01:18:34 I'm very much enjoying it.
1143 01:18:37 You know I'm never left alone.
1144 01:18:38 I supposethat's on your orders.
1145 01:18:40 Hmm. No matter.
1146 01:18:43 I have something I want to say
1147 01:18:45 before Caroline gets back.
1148 01:18:48 You must take her awayfrom here.
1149 01:18:51 - I shall do no such thing.- Yes.
1150 01:18:53 Leave Susan and mealone together.
1151 01:18:56 Susan is a memory.We've agreed that, haven't we?
1152 01:18:59 How innocent you are.
1153 01:19:02 She's with me all the time.
1154 01:19:05 She's here with me now.
1155 01:19:08 Please stop this.
1156 01:19:09 She belongs here.You do not.
1157 01:19:12 Mrs. Ayres...
1158 01:19:15 What is it?
1159 01:19:27 How did you do this?
1160 01:19:30 My little girl is upset.
1161 01:19:38 Could you take this off,please?
1162 01:19:44 Sit down.
1163 01:19:49 The cords were cut.Don't you remember?
1164 01:19:50 When Susan was playingsuch tricks on us.
1165 01:19:56 What did you...?Let me see.
1166 01:20:01 Stop.
1167 01:20:02 Stop that. Stop it. Stop it.
1168 01:20:05 Stop it. Stop. Betty! Stop!
1169 01:20:07 Stop!
1170 01:20:29 I'm going to check on her.
1171 01:20:31 Let her sleep.
1172 01:20:32 She's still under the Veronal.
1173 01:20:39 I'd like to bring ina psychiatrist.
1174 01:20:44 First Roddie, now her.
1175 01:20:48 How long before it's my turn?
1176 01:20:50 That's absurd.
1177 01:20:53 My mother would rather die
1178 01:20:55 than bring any more shameupon this family.
1179 01:20:56 I won't abandon herto her delusions
1180 01:20:58 for the sake of class pride.
1181 01:21:00 No, Faraday.
1182 01:21:03 Do you understand?
1183 01:21:05 I forbid it.
1184 01:21:51 Faraday!
1185 01:21:54 Did you lock her in?
1186 01:21:57 What?
1187 01:22:01 Mother.
1188 01:22:04 Mother, open the door.
1189 01:22:06 Mrs. Ayres.
1190 01:22:20 What have you done, Mama?
1191 01:22:21 What have you done?What have you done?
1192 01:23:01 Like as a father pitieth
1193 01:23:03 his own children,
1194 01:23:05 even so is the Lord mercifulunto them that fear Him.
1195 01:23:09 For He knoweth whereofwe are made.
1196 01:23:12 He remembereththat we are but dust.
1197 01:23:14 We mean to ask Caroline to come
1198 01:23:16 and stay with us.
1199 01:23:18 Well, she can't be allowedto remain all alone
1200 01:23:21 in that unhappy house.
1201 01:23:22 She isn't all alone.
1202 01:23:24 She has me.
1203 01:23:32 You've been very bravetoday, Rod.
1204 01:23:41 Get Caroline out.
1205 01:23:44 She'll be next.
1206 01:23:48 It's all right.
1207 01:24:02 No, no, no,I, I've lots to sort out,
1208 01:24:04 but I'll be absolutely fine.
1209 01:24:05 We had such fun herein the old days.
1210 01:24:09 I used to visit quite often,but unfortunately
1211 01:24:11 my health hasn'tallowed that lately.
1212 01:24:13 I'm sorry to hear that.
1213 01:24:17 I'm afraid I can't rememberyour name, Doctor.
1214 01:24:20 - Faraday.- Ah.
1215 01:24:22 No.
1216 01:24:26 I don't believe my sisterever mentioned you.
1217 01:24:49 Uh...
1218 01:24:52 I've been watching you.
1219 01:24:55 That can't have beenterribly interesting.
1220 01:25:00 It must be late.
1221 01:25:01 You should go.
1222 01:25:04 Not until you eat something.
1223 01:25:06 Oh, I couldn't.
1224 01:25:09 You must.
1225 01:25:12 I will eat. I promise.
1226 01:25:14 But later.
1227 01:25:19 Thank you for today.
1228 01:25:29 Caroline.
1229 01:25:33 Tell me just one thing.
1230 01:25:37 When may we be married?
1231 01:25:40 Please, I'm so tired.
1232 01:25:42 I want to be here.
1233 01:25:44 With you.
1234 01:25:47 I've been patient, haven't I?
1235 01:25:48 But so soonafter Mother's death, I...
1236 01:25:51 She'd want to knowyou were being looked after.
1237 01:25:56 A month is long enoughto sort everything out.
1238 01:26:00 - But we have so much to discuss.- I know.
1239 01:26:02 You'll need bridesmaids,something to wear.
1240 01:26:05 No, I don't want a fuss.I have plenty of dresses.
1241 01:26:07 Six weeks.
1242 01:26:10 From today.
1243 01:26:21 Yes.
1244 01:26:24 Yes, all right.
1245 01:26:27 Yes?
1246 01:26:28 Can you pleasejust let me sleep?
1247 01:26:44 The last time I sat downto eat at this table, Betty,
1248 01:26:49 I was eight years old.
1249 01:26:52 My mother was with me,
1250 01:26:53 standing just over there.
1251 01:26:56 That's a funny thought.
1252 01:26:58 I never guessedI'd be back here,
1253 01:27:00 like this.
1254 01:27:02 Wish she'd lived to see it.
1255 01:27:05 My father, too.
1256 01:27:11 My father wants meto go back home.
1257 01:27:15 He's on at mesomething terrible.
1258 01:27:18 You and I are all Miss Carolinehas left.
1259 01:27:20 I need youto help look after her.
1260 01:27:22 Well, he thinks there's a curseon the house after...
1261 01:27:26 Madam.
1262 01:27:31 I think we all feela little bit that way.
1263 01:27:34 Miss Caroline says thatI should sleep upstairs now.
1264 01:27:38 I think she's frightenedby herself.
1265 01:27:41 What if I told youthat she wouldn't be by herself
1266 01:27:45 much longer?
1267 01:27:49 That Miss Carolinewas soon to be married?
1268 01:27:53 Married?
1269 01:27:55 Mm.
1270 01:28:00 Oh, Doctor, when?
1271 01:28:03 Very soon.
1272 01:28:06 And I'm goingto need your help.
1273 01:28:37 I, uh,
1274 01:28:39 brought somethingfor you to copy.
1275 01:28:41 You say the lady's indisposed.
1276 01:28:43 Will she be able to walk?
1277 01:28:45 Yes.
1278 01:28:47 It's nothing serious.
1279 01:28:49 Ah.
1280 01:28:58 Caroline.
1281 01:28:59 Cooped up insideon this lovely day?
1282 01:29:02 You'll be absolutely kippered.
1283 01:29:11 This is flying in the faceof convention,
1284 01:29:14 I know, but, uh...
1285 01:29:22 I had it madeto match one of your others.
1286 01:29:24 Betty helped.
1287 01:29:27 We've been quitethe secret agents.
1288 01:29:30 There'll be something for yourhead and hands, too, of course.
1289 01:29:34 And, lastly...
1290 01:29:38 This was my mother's.
1291 01:29:40 Sorry, I can't do this.
1292 01:29:48 Forgive me.
1293 01:29:50 I've sprung it on you.
1294 01:29:53 We'll look at these lateror in private
1295 01:29:56 - if you prefer...- No, I mean I can't do any of it.
1296 01:29:59 I can't marry you.
1297 01:30:07 Caroline...
1298 01:30:08 I'm sorry.
1299 01:30:11 I like you very much,
1300 01:30:13 and I'm so grateful, but I-I...
1301 01:30:15 Darling, you're confused.
1302 01:30:18 No, I'm seeing very clearly.
1303 01:30:20 Please, you... you're tired.
1304 01:30:22 Stop saying that.
1305 01:30:24 Sometimes I thinkyou want me to be tired.
1306 01:30:28 You knowI want you to be happy.
1307 01:30:30 And I can't be happy
1308 01:30:31 if I marry you.
1309 01:30:38 We don't have to be husbandand wife right away,
1310 01:30:41 if that's the problem.
1311 01:30:42 God, can't you see?
1312 01:30:44 This whole thing between ushas never been real.
1313 01:30:50 I'm going away.
1314 01:30:51 I've put the estateup for sale.
1315 01:30:54 You can't.It's not yours to sell.
1316 01:30:56 Hepton's already drawn upthe papers.
1317 01:30:59 I've had power of attorneysince Rod was first ill.
1318 01:31:02 When he gets better,he can join me.
1319 01:31:03 Join you where?
1320 01:31:05 I'll go up to Londonas soon as I can.
1321 01:31:07 Then... Canada or America.
1322 01:31:10 Canada.
1323 01:31:12 But I will go.
1324 01:31:14 Before it's too late.
1325 01:31:27 Anne, I'm sorry,
1326 01:31:29 do you think David could takemy evening surgery?
1327 01:31:34 No, it's rather a violentstomach thing, I'm afraid.
1328 01:31:37 I... I really would bemost grateful.
1329 01:31:42 Thank you.
1330 01:32:07 The next few dayswere a sort of blur,
1331 01:32:12 a bad dreamfrom which I was slow to wake.
1332 01:32:18 Hundreds Hall was lost to me.
1333 01:32:22 As was Caroline.
1334 01:32:27 There was, no doubt,fun at my expense in Lidcote.
1335 01:32:32 That would teach meto look outside my class.
1336 01:32:38 I did, for a time,consider leaving, but...
1337 01:32:42 ...a man cannot outrun himself.
1338 01:33:00 Doctor!
1339 01:33:06 Dr. Faraday!
1340 01:36:35 The call camesometime around 3:00.
1341 01:36:38 It was Betty.
1342 01:36:40 In a dreadful state.
1343 01:36:43 Wanting you, I suppose,
1344 01:36:45 but the exchangepassed her to me.
1345 01:36:49 House call in Edgworth.
1346 01:36:56 It would have been instant.
1347 01:36:59 There's nothingyou could have done.
1348 01:37:19 The courtcalls Miss Elizabeth Walker.
1349 01:37:26 We went to bed earlythat night, Miss Ayres and me.
1350 01:37:30 We'd been cleaning all day;we were tired.
1351 01:37:32 And did Miss Ayres seem to youto be in low spirits?
1352 01:37:38 Not at all.
1353 01:37:39 She was happy,
1354 01:37:41 - looking forward to leaving.- So you went to your room
1355 01:37:44 and you heardnothing more until...?
1356 01:37:47 About half past 2:00.
1357 01:37:49 Creak on the stairs.
1358 01:37:52 At first I was frightened.
1359 01:37:57 Frightened because...?
1360 01:38:01 Big house, sir,and-and sometimes...
1361 01:38:08 ...well, it's lonely and dark.
1362 01:38:11 Then I realizedthe steps were Miss Ayres.
1363 01:38:14 Her room was just opposite,so I wasn't worried then.
1364 01:38:17 - Except...- Except...?
1365 01:38:24 Except they were going up
1366 01:38:26 to the second floor.
1367 01:38:28 There's no reasonto go up there.
1368 01:38:30 It's empty, it's locked up.
1369 01:38:54 And-and then I heard her stop.
1370 01:39:05 Make a sound.
1371 01:39:14 You.
1372 01:39:22 You.
1373 01:39:54 Caroline.
1374 01:40:09 There's been an accident.
1375 01:40:13 Miss Caroline.
1376 01:40:14 Dr. Faraday?
1377 01:40:19 Dr. Faraday?
1378 01:40:22 Would you supporta verdict of suicide
1379 01:40:26 whilst of unsound mind?
1380 01:40:35 I believe, based on my dealingswith Miss Ayres
1381 01:40:38 in the last weeks of her life,
1382 01:40:40 that her mindhad become clouded.
1383 01:40:44 Her death may indeedhave been a suicide.
1384 01:40:49 Thank you, Dr. Faraday.
1385 01:42:17 The first timeI saw Hundreds Hall
1386 01:42:20 was July 1919.
1387 01:42:24 I'd passed by its gatesoften enough
1388 01:42:27 but never imaginedthey would open to me,
1389 01:42:30 a common village boy.
1390 01:42:45 Oh, the whole world
1391 01:42:47 of Hundredsimpressed me terribly.
1392 01:42:50 My motherhad described it often,
1393 01:42:53 but nothingcould have prepared me
1394 01:42:55 for the spell it cast that day.
