00:10Middle-in. Thank you.
00:13Flat bottom if you've got it.
00:21What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:23Helping.
00:24No you're not. You can't.
00:26I said you wanted help with the wall.
00:27Aye. Not with the putting.
00:29Sorting is all you're good for.
00:32Sorting?
00:33Big, small, midlands, funny shaped ones.
00:36You start off sorting, then picking.
00:39After three or four years you get to the putting.
00:41Aye, then you get to the putting.
00:43Three or four years?
00:44Listen, farming is a way of life.
00:46It's in us bones.
00:48You've got to live it to know it.
00:50At least you've lived it.
00:51It's in us bones.
00:52Is that my voice you was meant to be doing then?
00:55Your cheeky so-and-so?
00:56Come on, you've been promoted to picking.
00:58Aye.
00:59Our picking.
01:00Have you been to the stable to check on Joan and the Littlin?
01:02That's exactly where I'm off to next.
01:04Good luck, James.
01:05I think I can manage to pick up a few rocks.
01:08They're stones.
01:09They're not rocks you're picking up.
01:11They're stones.
01:12They're stones.
01:13They're stones.
01:14Make sure you give her plenty of-
01:15Plenty of hair.

09:44i don't need my father to approve of my choice of paramour
09:48it's been tried

10:00hoops

17:57Each patch represents a different moment in our lives.
18:01What's this one?
18:03Now my dad's wedding.
18:07My grandma sewed that one on.
18:10Aww.
18:11And then my mam did the last one for our Jenny Rem.
18:15There.
18:18Ah.
18:20James, I need you in the stable.
18:23Hurry up, lad.
18:32That were Mrs Stokes on the telephone.
18:35Her hilda's still lame.
18:36She wants you to go and have a look at her.
18:38She really did seem quite insistent.
18:43Of course.
18:44Right, well, I'll get on with her lunch.
18:47Oh, no need.
18:47I've eaten.
18:48You've eaten?
18:48Yes.
18:49What have you eaten?
18:50Sardines.
18:51Wait, you don't want to cook lunch?
18:53No, I don't want to trouble you.
18:54Mr Farnon.
18:57Is everything all right?
19:00Yes.
19:01You sure?
19:03Without question.
19:05Right you are.
19:07Oh, Tris, you look very smart.
19:09When are you going to this croquet luncheon?
19:11Soon.
19:12Well, be sure to take the Beauvoir's bill with you.
19:15Sorry?
19:16For treating Charlotte's horse.
19:18You want me to go there with a bill?
19:20He's got it.
19:21No, I can't do that.
19:22Yes, you can.
19:23I'm their guest.
19:24If you must fraternise with the clientele, let it not be at the expense of the business.
19:30Then you're the model of professionalism, I suppose.
19:33I take it you won't want lunch either, if you're off out.
19:39Au contraire, Mrs Hall.
19:40I need to keep up my strength for today.
19:42Good.
19:44Glad someone still needs me services.
19:51Is it something serious?
19:55She does feel a bit warm.
20:03Is it pneumonia?
20:06Lungs sound fine, so it's not pneumonia.
20:09Good girl.
20:13Her udder is hot and swollen.
20:16It could be because the fool stopped feeding, so it could be mastitis.
20:22We need to draw the udder to check.
20:28Aye, there are clots.
20:30She has mastitis.
20:31We need to strip out the milk.
20:35Finish me some warm water, please.
20:37Aye.
20:38She's been in a lot of pain, won't she?
20:40I'm afraid so.
20:41Oh, poor love.
20:44We should have caught that sooner, shouldn't we, eh?
20:47I'm sorry.
20:49I'm sorry.
20:50I'm sorry.
21:01Thank you, Derek.
21:12Well, I could get used to this chauffeur business.
21:16Only problem, he wouldn't stop at the drovers.
21:18He was under strict instructions.
21:19Look at you.
21:23How did you defeat the Nazis?
21:24With dashing good looks.
21:26Do you think the same will work on your father?
21:28Any strategy that works is fine.
21:30How about running fast in the opposite direction?
21:33Not that one.
21:33Yes, that would have been the best of Mrs. Beverly.
21:37Undeniably.
21:38Captain Farnon.
21:40Somewhat overdressed for the stables, aren't you?
21:42He's not here to see Philbrick.
21:44You know very well that Tristan is my guest.
21:49Lord Neville Gladwin.
21:51Owns everything from Rook Hill down to the river.
21:53Captain Tristan Farnon.
21:56Vet.
21:57Vet is it.
21:58Spend all of time with your arm up a cow's backside, I shouldn't wonder.
22:01Remind me not to shake hands with you.
22:05I must say, I'm looking forward to playing some croquet.
22:09Don't worry, I'm no Aunt Edna.
22:11Emma.
22:11Emma.
22:12Croquet?
22:12I hardly think so.
22:14Not with these ground conditions.
22:17Not to worry.
22:19It gives you boys a chance to get to know one another better.
22:31Mrs. Stokes?
22:46Hello?
22:49Hello?
22:50Hello?
22:53God, Tink.
22:54This way, Mr. Farnon.
23:10What's she doing now, then?
23:12She's doing well.
23:13But she'll be tender.
23:15A pituitary injection will help let the milk go down.
23:18She'd be easier to strip out.
23:20Fall will get weak if she don't feed.
23:22She's just said she'll be tender.
23:24It's not fair.
23:24Well, technically...
23:25You can't force the fall on her.
23:29It's hard work being a mam, isn't it, eh, girl?
23:33But you've got to try.
23:35Leave him when it hurts.
23:37Especially when it hurts.
23:40I think we may be getting somewhere.
23:42What happened?
23:43Oh, nothing, love.
23:44Just a bit of a to-do with a piping, that's all.
23:47James is helping her out.
23:49Let's get the fall on the other teat.
23:50It won't be as painful.
23:54All right, go on.
24:01All right, girl.
24:02Come on, that's it.
24:05That's it.
24:11Come on, girl.
24:12Come on.
24:13That's it.
24:15That's it.
24:16Easy.
24:18Easy.
24:18Can I try?
24:30It's all right.
24:32She's your little girl, don't you see?
24:35You don't want her going hungry and being sad, do you?
24:38You want her big and strong.
24:40Easy.
24:40Easy.
24:40Easy.
24:40Easy.
24:40Easy.
24:41Easy.
24:41Easy.
24:41Easy.
24:42Easy.
24:42Easy.
24:42Easy.
24:43Easy.
24:43Easy.
24:44Easy.
24:44Easy.
24:45Easy.
24:45Easy.
24:46Easy.
24:46Easy.
24:47Easy.
24:47Easy.
24:48Easy.
24:48Easy.
24:48Easy.
24:49Easy.
24:50Easy.
24:51Easy.
24:52Easy.
24:53Easy.
24:54Easy.
24:55Easy.
24:56Easy.
24:57Easy.
24:58Easy.
24:59Easy.
25:00Easy.
25:01Easy.
25:02Easy.
25:03Easy.
25:04Easy.
25:05Easy.
25:06Easy.
25:07Easy.
25:08Easy.
25:09Easy.
25:10Easy.
25:11Easy.
25:12Easy.
25:13Easy.
25:14Easy.
25:15Easy.
25:16Easy.
25:17We've got to let her go.
25:24And all of them. And all we do.
25:38I suppose we may slowly see things return to normality now.
25:43God knows we've had to make do on men long enough.
25:45My great hope is that we get the opera back.
25:50Losing the Royal Opera House during wartime was an absolute tragedy.
25:54I think most Londoners needed a dance hall more than they needed some marbling Italians, Daddy.
25:59One of the great institutions of our nation, the ROH.
26:04Absolutely.
26:06I mean, what have we been fighting for if not...
26:11Handel?
26:13A German.
26:16Out for billiards, General.
26:18Why don't you give Tristan a game?
26:20No, no. No, no. Neville's been waiting a while, so...
26:23Oh, nonsense. Be my guest. Show us what you're made of.
26:28Set them up.
26:28Where's the rest of the balls?
26:47You don't have the first idea how to play, do you?
26:50He already thinks I'm a peasant.
26:52I have no intention of confirming it beyond all doubt.
26:55There's three balls. Two white cue balls.
27:00One with a black spot on it. The red goes on that spot.
27:03White.
27:05Let's give them a good pasting, shall we?
27:11Sorry, Mr. Stokes. I've done some unusual things in my time as a vet.
27:14But ten more minutes.
27:16Ken, if I stay in this position a moment longer, I'll never get up again.
27:20Look, there's the...
27:22She is curry in my front left youth.
27:27So she is.
27:28Shake a leg.
27:38We shall be here all day.
27:51Oh, damn.
27:52Well, that's points to you.
27:54How much of the General's whiskey have you had, Father?
27:58So, I imagine you never had much choice other than to go into the family business.
28:05No, I enjoy spending time with wild, untamed creatures, but it's not just about my brother.
28:10I like the animals, too.
28:11You're bad luck.
28:23I suppose it's about what you're born to, isn't it?
28:30Money's not the be-all and end-all, Father.
28:33All I'm saying is it takes a certain disposition.
28:38Rachel.
28:41Red's gone down twice from the spot, goes to the middle.
28:48Anyone would think you didn't know the game.
28:50Well, I've played plenty of barbilliards, but no one seems to have made that deliberately baffling.
28:55Well, why on earth didn't you say so, Mayor?
28:58I'm sorry, General.
29:00I don't know much about croquet or opera or where the Red Bull's supposed to go.
29:05But I do know a lot about sticking my hand up a cow's backside.
29:08The fee, sir, for saving Charlotte's horse.
29:14Little girl.
29:25Little girl.
29:27I've been looking for you.
29:30I've just been here.
29:33Willing this little lady better.
29:35She looks smarter than before.
29:37Hmm.
29:38Here's open.
29:39Helen.
29:42Helen.
29:44Yes?
29:46I can't do it.
29:48I can't go.
29:50Jenny, I'm not a nurse.
29:52I'm not a city girl.
29:54This is my home.
29:56I can't leave.
29:59Oh.
30:00You daft thing.
30:16Well?
30:17I don't believe it.
30:19You don't believe what?
30:20Poor Hilda has Shelley hoof.
30:22Shelley what?
30:24Hoof.
30:25The horn has started to come away from the hoof.
30:27It's formed a cavity which is filled with soil and dung.
30:30Why?
30:33Mrs. Stokes, I apologise.
30:35Well, that's all well and good, Mr. Fowler.
30:37But I reckon it's not me.
30:38You should be apologising to.
30:43Hilda.
30:45I'm sorry for not seeing this soon.
30:46Do you accept his apology, elder love?
30:51Well, to be fair on Mr. Fowler,
30:53it was you plain silly beggars pretending everything was all right
30:56when it clearly wasn't.
30:58Can't quarrel with that.
31:00Prancing around like a right silly old goat.
31:04She does accept your apology.
31:06It's all good.
31:08Goats sometimes behave like this, Mrs. Stokes,
31:11pretending they're not hurt in order to protect themselves.
31:14No, that's right.
31:15Well, in my book,
31:18that's a ruddy foolish thing to do.
31:25Must have taught you well.
31:28Nice and sturdy.
31:30No gaps.
31:32Still been stood long after I've gone less.
31:34Mm.
31:35You've James to thank for that.
31:37James did that?
31:40Picking and putting.
31:41Jenny says she's not going now.
31:48Because of me?
31:49Because she's scared.
31:51She's looking for a reason not to.
31:56When your mother passed,
31:57I just buried my head in its hand.
32:00Left you to bring up your sister,
32:02doing what I couldn't.
32:03I put far too much on your young shoulders.
32:07Far too much.
32:09You say it like Jenny was a burden.
32:11She wasn't.
32:13Far from it.
32:15She was the reason I got up every morning.
32:18The reason I were able to live again.
32:20You had plans and dreams of your own, though, didn't you?
32:24It's not what you wanted.
32:26And look at what I got instead, eh?
32:29James.
32:30Children.
32:31I grew up closer to Jenny than any sister could have.
32:34Aye.
32:35But still,
32:36I appreciate it.
32:38And James definitely did this wall, did he?
32:51Mm-hmm.
32:53Do you want to do the rest of them?
32:59Did it wrong bloody job?
33:00Mm-hmm.
33:01All right, Jenny, then.
33:09Oh, these do look better.
33:11You haven't called me that in years.
33:13No.
33:14I like it.
33:16Reminds me of...
33:18You can say it.
33:22Mum.
33:24That's what she always used to call me.
33:29You know what she'd say?
33:31Be brave.
33:33My Jenny Wren.
33:35That she would.
33:37You can leave this place,
33:39but it'll always run through your veins.
33:41But I'd miss you all.
33:43So much.
33:45Yes, but you're not to worry about this place,
33:47or Dad, or the children.
33:49And that's being worried about London.
33:50Well,
33:51I think London's the one that should be worried.
33:54I don't know anything about it.
33:56I don't know where anything is.
33:58I don't know anyone.
33:59It's what adventures are for, isn't it?
34:01Discovering all them things.
34:04You never got your adventure.
34:09I know you're not my mum.
34:11Not really.
34:12But you are.
34:16You are.
34:21What else are Wrens meant to do, eh?
34:22But flourish and fly.
34:26What about Dad?
34:28He's pleased for you.
34:30Deep down.
34:31Where it matters.
34:32Very deep down.
34:34I know he is.
34:35He came up with a name for her.
34:39Florence.
34:41After Florence Nightingale.
34:42It's perfect.
34:44Took us long enough.
34:45You suddenly made an impression.
35:13I'm so sorry.
35:15I don't know why I thought I could swing this.
35:17I belong in the stables, not in there.
35:18You belong right here with me.
35:20I made a fool of myself.
35:22You did.
35:24It was wonderful.
35:25I do know about putting my hand at the cow's backside.
35:30Perhaps not my finest repartee.
35:33I think we had a lucky escape.
35:36Imagine the damage you could have done with a croquet mallet.
35:38I practiced.
35:39You didn't.
35:40I bloody practiced.
35:40That's so sweet.
35:41I was ready to lie convincingly about croquet.
35:45Okay, Aunt Edna.
35:46Captain Farnon.
35:54Sir.
35:55I have your fee.
36:00I'm just waiting for the car to come round.
36:03Oh, I don't want you to misunderstand me, Farnon.
36:07Captain.
36:08There's no one I'd trust more with my horses.
36:11He trusts you with his horses.
36:13Praise indeed.
36:13I lost her once before, I'm sure she told you, to the Auxiliary Territorial Service in Italy.
36:24I wasn't lost.
36:25You could have been.
36:28I wanted the world for her once.
36:31Now, I just want her home.
36:33And I want her happy.
36:37I like seeing her happy.
36:39Next time, you teach me bar billiards.
36:52That's it.
36:53Play nicely, Jimmy.
36:55Well, sir.
36:57Sewing me patch.
37:00Oh, that's lovely.
37:02It's candy, Joan and the foal.
37:05I'm not sure it's as good as me mum's, to be honest.
37:07They're two beautiful girls.
37:11Are you seeing things?
37:12Where am I?
37:14It's just a wren.
37:17You're the son.
37:18Oh, hey-o.
37:35What have you got there?
37:36For the children.
37:38But might as well have them now.
37:39No point me hanging on to them.
37:41Isn't that kind?
37:43Excuse me, what did you say to your Auntie Jenny?
37:46Ta.
37:46You're very welcome.
37:48They're for both of you, though.
37:50To share.
37:54Here you are, Rosie.
37:56Aw, thank you.
37:58Good boy.
37:59Rosie's going to love those.
38:03I've got something for you and all.
38:05Me?
38:06I don't know if we can quite call it a present.
38:08Or a question.
38:10Right.
38:11How about you come with me?
38:13To London?
38:15What?
38:15Just to settle me in.
38:17You don't need me.
38:19I want you to come.
38:21It can be our adventure together.
38:27It's all right, by me, look.
38:28He suggested it to me.
38:42Yeah.
38:43Hi, Rosie.
38:46London, eh?
38:49For a few weeks.
38:51What did you say?
38:52I told her I couldn't go.
38:54I'm leaving you on your own with the children.
39:00You should go.
39:03I mean it.
39:04It'd be good for you both.
39:08Well, what will you do?
39:10I'll look after myself well enough.
39:11Don't you worry about that.
39:14And the children?
39:15One each.
39:20Jimmy.
39:21Rosie.
39:23You just promised me one thing.
39:26Aye.
39:26On this wee trip,
39:28you're not going to fall in love
39:30with some handsome London hero soldier
39:31and run away with him, are you?
39:33I hadn't thought about that.
39:35But now you mentioned it.
39:36Careful.
39:36No, stop it.
39:37Hey, careful.
39:38Stop it.
39:38Stop it.
39:38I'm kidding.
39:39I'm kidding.
39:41Oh, all right.
39:42All right.
39:43I promise I won't go running off with anyone.
39:45What's all this?
39:54I'm sewing dresses for our Mary and little Rosie.
39:57Oh, lovely.
39:58I've been trying to thread this needle
40:01so long my eyes have gone funny.
40:03Give it to me.
40:04Your eyes are worse than mine.
40:09I see what it is.
40:10Er, you're afraid.
40:12Oh, my heck.
40:13Scissors, please.
40:15I've just been dealing with Hilda.
40:17It's a rather curious case.
40:18The girl?
40:19Yes.
40:20It seems that she's relu...
40:26Hilda has Shelley hoof.
40:29It's a very painful condition.
40:32But she's reluctant to show it.
40:35Doesn't want to upset her keeper.
40:37So she keeps it in,
40:41which only makes the condition worse.
40:43Oh, nearly.
40:45Next time.
40:47Here's her, hoping.
40:48And I sometimes think
40:52that's a coping mechanism
40:56not entirely alien to the human condition.
40:58I see.
41:01Do you?
41:02A little bit.
41:05Not really.
41:10Hilda has Shelley hoof.
41:12Right.
41:13It can be very painful.
41:16Very painful indeed.
41:18Mr. Fannan,
41:21are you reluctant to admit
41:22you've been feeling
41:23a little bit afraid?
41:26When you go to Edwards,
41:28are you coming back?
41:30Because I'd rather just know.
41:36I'll only be gone
41:37for a few days.
41:38Right.
41:43Good, then.
41:47What am I doing this now?
41:49I've been listening to you,
41:50Mrs. Or I can't see a bloody thing.
42:06Chemi.
42:08Jenny.
42:12All right.
42:13It's done.
42:18It's beautiful.
42:25Over to you.
42:28Me?
42:30You're an Alderson girl, aren't you?
42:32It's time to show
42:33your little patch of the world.
42:37What?
42:38It's just...
42:42I don't quite know
42:43what that is yet.
42:47There's no rush.
42:50I'll save it
42:51for when you're ready.
42:52Hang on.
42:53Let's not fold it away,
42:55though, eh?
42:56Let these two
42:57keep it warm for me.
42:59Till I'm ready.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:00Okay.
43:01Okay.
43:02Okay.
43:02Okay.
43:02Okay.
43:03Okay.
43:03Okay.
43:04Okay.
43:04Okay.
43:05Okay.
43:05Okay.
43:06Okay.
43:07Okay.
43:08Let me know
43:09if you need hope.
43:10Will do.
43:14What's this?
43:16Teleform.
43:17Dad?
43:18Really?
43:19I thought you said
43:19they were witchcraft.
43:20You can go up in that
43:24fish face.
43:26I just...
43:27I can't believe it.
43:29Believe it?
43:33This is going to make my life
43:33so much easier.
43:34Not just for you.
43:36For our Jenny here.
43:38So she can telephone me
43:39from that there London
43:40every Sunday night
43:41without fail.
43:43Oh, of course she did.
43:44Of course.
43:45Of course.
43:45Of course.
