00:04:13 Well, I'll be. Look what's here. Hello, ducky. What do you want?
00:04:20 Nothing, thank you.
00:04:21 Then take it, nop it. Shut up. Come in, dearie, and have a sweetie.
00:04:25 Oh, thank you. It's my birthday today. Is it? You better have two.
00:04:30 Oh, thank you. I'll keep one for Lucy. Who's Lucy? She's my friend. She's very pretty.
00:04:37 Fanny's gone down there and she hasn't come back. What?
00:04:40 [Music]
00:04:44 Papa has given me a hoop. It's supposed to be a surprise, but I couldn't help peeping into the cupboard.
00:04:49 And there it was. Miss Fanny, Miss Fanny.
00:04:51 What are you doing? You know you're not allowed down here. Upstairs, Viv, you're gone.
00:04:57 Go on, ducky. Do as you're told.
00:04:59 Go on.
00:05:00 You tell her, Ma, to look after her better. It's too nice to go poking her nose into places like this.
00:05:05 Go on, upstairs.
00:05:06 [Music]
00:05:10 Was there a ghost? No, silly. Only an old woman scrubbing the floor and two ladies with dressing gowns on.
00:05:15 Actresses. Actresses? How do you know? They told me. Look, the fair lady gave me these.
00:05:20 Who gave you them, that goody? The pretty lady down there.
00:05:23 Don't you dare to eat them. Why not, chaps?
00:05:26 They may be poison. Oh.
00:05:29 If I die a violent death, it's poison. If I don't, it ain't.
00:05:37 [Music]
00:05:40 It ain't.
00:05:42 [Burps]
00:05:43 Buy yourself some more. Oh, thank you, chaps.
00:05:46 I'm going to get you a mug. Don't let me catch you down there again.
00:05:53 Isn't it wonderful? Nine candles.
00:05:55 I shall have ten of mine. You can't. You'll only be nine.
00:05:59 It's not fair you're always being older than me. Anyway, my cake will be bigger.
00:06:04 Oh, you'll get on in life, Lucy.
00:06:08 Papa!
00:06:09 And how is the birthday gal, hmm?
00:06:13 [Chuckles]
00:06:14 Hello, Mr. Huckford. Hello, Lucy.
00:06:16 How do you like my new sash? Oh, very nice.
00:06:20 Can't stop long, I'm afraid. We're very busy.
00:06:22 The kettle's just boiling. Sit down, all of you.
00:06:24 One, two, three, four, and one for the pot.
00:06:31 A gentleman to see you, ma'am. Mr. Seymour.
00:06:35 Where have you put him, Mary? In the morning, ma'am.
00:06:38 I'm sorry, Lucy. You'll have to wait a little longer for your tea.
00:06:41 Fanny, you come with me. Why?
00:06:43 Go with your mother, Fanny. Come along, dear.
00:06:45 Who is Mr. Seymour?
00:06:48 How's business, Mr. Huckford?
00:06:50 Not so bad, Lucy. Not so bad.
00:06:53 What's that place you've got called The Shades?
00:06:57 Eh? The Shades.
00:07:00 I took you at your word, you see.
00:07:04 So this is Fanny. She does you credit, ma'am.
00:07:08 Thank you. Fanny?
00:07:11 I don't suppose you remember me? No, sir.
00:07:14 Mr. Seymour's been in foreign parts. With black people, sir.
00:07:18 Well, no, not exactly.
00:07:21 How do you like your school, my dear? Well...
00:07:24 I think she likes her lessons, don't you, dear? I don't like arithmetic.
00:07:27 Neither did I. Come and see my birthday cake.
00:07:30 Thank you for your invitation, but I'm afraid I can't.
00:07:33 Won't you stay and have tea with us?
00:07:35 As much as I'd like to. I have a meeting with my chief.
00:07:39 They say you'll be Prime Minister one of these days.
00:07:42 You mustn't believe all you read in the newspapers.
00:07:44 I hoped it was true. It'll make it all seem more worthwhile.
00:07:48 I brought you a birthday present. May I give it out?
00:07:51 Of course.
00:07:54 Aren't you going to say thank you?
00:07:57 Oh, thank you.
00:08:00 When you're older, wear it sometimes and think of the giver.
00:08:03 Yes.
00:08:05 Goodbye, Mrs. Hogwarts. Remember me to your husband, won't you?
00:08:09 Goodbye. Goodbye.
00:08:20 Yes, and when I drive in the High Park,
00:08:26 all the common people will get up on their seats and watch me.
00:08:29 Look at the palm. Look what the gentleman gave me.
00:08:33 Oh, very pretty.
00:08:36 Lucy, look. Isn't it wonderful?
00:08:38 Quite nice.
00:08:40 When I'm a famous actress, I shall have lots and lots of jewellery.
00:08:44 Much better than that. I don't want anything better.
00:08:47 Now for tea.
00:08:50 Oh, look. Don't the candles look lovely?
00:08:53 Yes.
00:08:56 Lucy tells me Fanny's been straying into the shades after the ball.
00:09:00 She's growing up.
00:09:03 We ought to send her away to school.
00:09:05 I suppose so.
00:09:08 Come on, then, Fanny. All out at one blow.
00:09:12 One, two, three, blow.
00:09:16 Pretty?
00:09:27 Beautifully, Lucy. We must hurry.
00:09:31 She won't be long now.
00:09:34 Chunks?
00:09:37 Just one lump of luck to give Miss Fanny a warm welcome on her return after all these years.
00:09:43 That'll be her. Must be. Is it?
00:09:49 Yes, it's her. It is. Come on, Chunks.
00:09:55 How much? Half a crown and frippin's for the basket, lady.
00:09:59 Here's three shillings. Keep the change.
00:10:02 Thank you, missy. I'll give you an for that. Are you just home for the holidays?
00:10:06 Home for good. Left school today.
00:10:08 Is that so? Just beginning life, as you might say.
00:10:12 Yes. Isn't it wonderful?
00:10:14 Fanny!
00:10:16 Lucy!
00:10:19 How have you grown?
00:10:23 And Chunks, you haven't changed at all.
00:10:26 A little bit older, miss. I can tell you for.
00:10:30 Mama!
00:10:33 Let me look at you.
00:10:36 How pale you are.
00:10:38 It's a good thing I have come home to look after you.
00:10:41 We've got a lovely supper waiting for you.
00:10:43 Oh, happy birthday.
00:10:45 Dear me, with all the excitement, I forgot.
00:10:47 Many happy returns of the day, darling.
00:10:50 Thank you, Mama.
00:10:53 Sir John's compliments, sir.
00:11:03 Will you take a glass of sherry with him? Delighted.
00:11:05 Sir John. Hopwood.
00:11:08 Miss Fanny's arrived, sir.
00:11:12 Good. I'll come straight up. Right.
00:11:16 Ah, Hopwood.
00:11:18 I want to take a friend down to the shades.
00:11:21 Is he safe, my lord?
00:11:23 As a church.
00:11:25 I'll take you down.
00:11:28 Hopwood. Thank you.
00:11:38 [music]

00:11:44 [music]
00:11:47 [music]
00:11:50 [music]

00:12:01 [music]
00:12:05 [music]
00:12:08 [music]
00:12:13 [music]
00:12:22 [music]
00:12:28 Hello, darling.
00:12:33 [music]
00:12:36 Good evening, Hopwood.
00:12:40 Honoured to have you with us.
00:12:41 Won't you join us?
00:12:42 I regret, sir, I have to attend a family celebration tonight.
00:12:45 My daughter's come home from school.
00:12:46 Daughter, eh? I didn't know you had one.
00:12:49 I wager Hopwood doesn't put his precious daughter in the business.
00:12:52 [laughter]
00:12:59 17, 18, 19 candles. Isn't that wonderful?
00:13:03 I'm only 18 and I'm going to stay 18 for years and years and years.
00:13:06 [laughter]
00:13:07 Oh, Papa.
00:13:08 Sorry, my dear. I was kept downstairs.
00:13:11 Very pretty.
00:13:12 It's my first really grown-up garden.
00:13:14 And my hair's up, too. Look.
00:13:16 My hair's been up for years.
00:13:18 Hmm. Very nice.
00:13:21 And how does it feel to be let loose from Miss Kennedy's seminary?
00:13:24 Wonderful. It's lovely to be home.
00:13:26 I never want to leave it again.
00:13:28 Happy birthday, my darling.
00:13:29 Happy birthday, Fanny.
00:13:30 Happy birthday, Fanny.
00:13:31 Many other wishes.
00:13:32 Thank you, Chunks.
00:13:33 I'll get back to the warrior.
00:13:35 Thank you, Chunks.
00:13:36 Madame.
00:13:37 What are you going to do now you're home?
00:13:39 Haven't really thought yet.
00:13:40 I'm not good at anything, really, only sewing.
00:13:43 Are you still going on stage?
00:13:44 Oh, yes. Papa's tried to stop me, of course, but I talked him round.
00:13:47 I always can, you know.
00:13:48 I quite agree with your father.
00:13:50 It's not nice for a young lady to parade herself before a gaping audience.
00:13:53 Oh, he squeezed me in the handsome cab as we trotted round the pub.
00:13:59 Oh, the naughty man from Delhi, by his manner we could tell he
00:14:04 was out for a real good laugh, tra-la-la.
00:14:08 And he kissed me in the argyle rooms in the corner in the dark.
00:14:14 He was quite a wicked pasha.
00:14:16 Oh, my goodness, what a masher.
00:14:19 And out for a real good laugh, tra-la-la.
00:14:23 And out for a real good laugh.
00:14:26 Please kindly keep your voice down.
00:14:28 Oh, you know, a very nice young lady.
00:14:31 I will not stand all this high-handedness.
00:14:34 [chatter]
00:14:36 Now you've met me.
00:14:39 Oh, he takes off.
00:14:40 Let's stop, James.
00:14:41 Get out of my way.
00:14:43 Sorry, my lord.
00:14:44 Stop what's on his mind.
00:14:45 Are you going to get out of my way or aren't you?
00:14:47 Sorry, my lord.
00:14:49 Here, stop that, you're breaking my arm.
00:14:51 [screaming]
00:14:53 And I had to keep on telling him to leave go of my hand.
00:14:58 Oh, the dandy lad from Delhi, by his manner we could tell he
00:15:03 was out for a real good laugh, tra-la-la.
00:15:07 Was out for a real good laugh.
00:15:13 Fetch it on.
00:15:14 I tried to stop him, sir.
00:15:28 Ah, the great man himself.
00:15:30 What are Mr. Halpwood's orders?
00:15:32 I must ask you to leave, my lord.
00:15:34 Not until I'm ready.
00:15:38 And you.
00:15:49 Well, that's that.
00:15:50 Not if I know Manderstoke it isn't.
00:15:55 All the captain's lodging, chaps.
00:16:01 Don't imagine I shall forget this, Halpwood.
00:16:11 What am I certain, my lord?
00:16:12 Since you claim to be a gentleman, you will no doubt
00:16:14 settle his doctor's bill.
00:16:16 And for the future, kind to remember I do not allow my
00:16:18 premises to be used by drunken bullies.
00:16:22 [screaming]
00:16:26 Come on, Bill, to the fight.
00:16:27 Come on.
00:16:28 Give us a chance, two.
00:16:32 That's right, governor.
00:16:33 Best you can.
00:16:34 [chatter]
00:16:36 [music playing]
00:16:54 [screaming]
00:17:04 You killed him.
00:17:08 It isn't true.
00:17:09 He meant to kill my father.
00:17:10 I saw it.
00:17:11 He knew the cab was there.
00:17:14 That will do.
00:17:15 We've already heard evidence in that point.
00:17:18 You ask the court to believe that you know nothing about
00:17:20 what went on in the downstairs part of your father's business.
00:17:24 Known only too appropriately as the Shades.
00:17:27 Yes, I've told you.
00:17:28 I'd only just returned from boarding school that day.
00:17:31 What about the holidays?
00:17:32 Surely a young woman of your age must have noticed something.
00:17:35 I didn't go home for the holidays.
00:17:37 My mama always took me to the country or the sea.
00:17:40 That will do.
00:17:41 Yes, but--
00:17:42 That will do.
00:17:45 You've heard the evidence about this distressing affair.
00:17:48 And it is to be deplored that a gentleman of Lord Manderstoke's
00:17:51 position has been involved in these unhappy proceedings.
00:17:54 And I hope that the gentleman of the press will see to it
00:17:57 that his name is not mentioned in connection with the case.
00:17:59 The evidence clearly shows that William Hopwood
00:18:02 was the proprietor of what I can only describe
00:18:04 as a place of dubious reputation.
00:18:06 And though it is beyond my province,
00:18:08 I suggest that it would not be inappropriate if the priest
00:18:11 took steps to close the premises.
00:18:13 Woe unto him who looketh upon the house
00:18:16 and the wine when it is well.
00:18:18 For he shall be in danger of hell fire.
00:18:21 Accursed be the publicans and the sinners.
00:18:25 For it shall be said unto them, go ye into the fires everlasting,
00:18:30 where there shall be weeping and wailing and--
00:18:33 [glass shattering]
00:18:34 Won't they ever let us alone?
00:18:38 We must get away from here, somewhere where nobody knows.
00:18:42 That's what I want to talk to you about.
00:18:45 You must get away.
00:18:48 I shan't be coming with you.
00:18:50 Why?
00:18:52 Mama, no!
00:18:54 Shh, my darling.
00:18:56 Let me go on.
00:18:58 I've arranged somewhere for you to stay for a little while
00:19:01 until people forget.
00:19:04 In the future, you must-- you must take the name of--
00:19:07 Hooper, my maiden name.
00:19:10 Go to-- to 117 Belgrave Square and--
00:19:15 and ask for Mrs. Heaviside.
00:19:17 She'll-- she'll take care of you.
00:19:20 I want to take care of you.
00:19:22 You must get well.
00:19:24 We'll go away somewhere together.
00:19:26 My darling, don't cry.
00:19:29 Don't make it harder for me.
00:19:32 Be a good girl.
00:19:34 Take care of yourself.
00:19:37 Don't make the mistake that I--
00:19:41 oh, I feel so tired.
00:19:45 I can't sleep at all.
00:19:50 Mama!
00:19:53 Mama!
00:19:55 Cheer up, Miss Fanny.
00:20:14 Here's the chance.
00:20:17 I suppose you don't know nothing about this price
00:20:20 your mother sent you to?
00:20:22 No.
00:20:23 Expect it's all right, really?
00:20:30 Expect so.
00:20:33 [footsteps]
00:20:35 [doorbell rings]
00:20:53 Well?
00:20:55 Can I see Mrs. Heaviside, please?
00:20:57 Servants entrance, if you please.
00:21:01 That'll do, George.
00:21:03 I think I know what this is about.
00:21:05 I'm Mrs. Heaviside.
00:21:07 Oh, I'm Fanny Hop-- Hooper.
00:21:09 My mama told me--
00:21:10 Yes, yes, I know.
00:21:11 Come you in.
00:21:12 And you too, my good man.
00:21:14 Well, how much higher is it?
00:21:22 As near heaven as you'll ever get, I do doubt.
00:21:24 Oh.
00:21:30 In you go.
00:21:31 This is your room.
00:21:32 Turn off the light.
00:21:48 Get along with you, great creature like you.
00:21:51 Take your things off, say your goodbyes,
00:21:53 then come down to my room and I'll give you some tea.
00:21:55 Yes, ma'am.
00:21:56 Which is your room, ma'am, please?
00:21:58 You've got a tongue in your head, haven't you?
00:22:00 See you go out by the servant's entrance, my man.
00:22:06 Old faggot.
00:22:09 If it wasn't what your mother said before she was took,
00:22:15 I wouldn't let you stay.
00:22:17 Oh, Miss Fanny.
00:22:20 I've written you down my new address.
00:22:27 Joe Box, Jolly Bargy, River Row, Islington.
00:22:31 Joe Box.
00:22:33 Lovely name, is it really yours?
00:22:36 Chunks to you, Miss, as always.
00:22:38 What's the Jolly Bargy?
00:22:40 Oh, it's just a pub, I bought down at Miss Ivins.
00:22:42 Nothing swanky, nothing like that.
00:22:44 It's just cosy-like, you know.
00:22:46 What I want to tell you, miss, is--
00:22:50 Yes, Chunks?
00:22:53 Well, if you're ever in a pickle,
00:22:55 and they're not kind to you,
00:22:57 you come along with the Jolly Bargy to me, you see?
00:22:59 Thank you, Chunks.
00:23:01 That's all right.
00:23:02 Well, I'll be off now, dearie.
00:23:05 Mind what I say.
00:23:06 Every time you come to me,
00:23:09 old Chunks, you see?
00:23:11 Keep smiling.
00:23:20 [music]
00:23:23 Mrs. Hennessy, I'd a room, if you please.
00:23:39 [knock on door]
00:23:48 [knock on door]
00:23:49 Oh, I beg your pardon.
00:23:54 I was told that this was Mrs. Heaviside's room.
00:23:57 Come in, Penny.
00:23:58 Don't you remember me?
00:24:02 No, sir.
00:24:04 Oh, yes, I do.
00:24:06 You're the gentleman who gave me this.
00:24:09 You've got a good memory.
00:24:10 I doubt if I'd have recognised you so quickly.
00:24:13 Mr. Seymour.
00:24:14 What are you doing here?
00:24:16 I live here.
00:24:17 Oh.
00:24:18 Now, sit down, my dear.
00:24:19 I want to talk to you.
00:24:21 Penny, I don't know how to begin to tell you this.
00:24:27 I promised your mother...
00:24:31 William Hopwood was not your father.
00:24:37 What are you saying?
00:24:39 Of course he was my father.
00:24:43 No, dear.
00:24:46 Now, please listen to what I have to say.
00:24:48 It was all so long ago, so much has happened since.
00:24:57 Mary, your mother, and I fell in love.
00:25:02 I think we believed that we discovered love.
00:25:05 We were determined to marry.
00:25:07 Her father was a farmer on my father's estate.
00:25:11 There would be opposition. I knew, but it could be overcome.
00:25:15 My father was very clever about it, very reasonable.
00:25:18 All he asked was that I should go away for a year.
00:25:21 And then, if I still felt the same, he would give his consent.
00:25:24 He pulled strings and had me transferred abroad.
00:25:28 Your mother and I had just one week together before I went.
00:25:33 Remember, my dear, how young we were.
00:25:37 How very, very much in love.
00:25:39 When I came back, she was married.
00:25:43 You were a few months old.
00:25:44 My father had paid William Hopwood well to give you, as they put it, a name.
00:25:49 I'm sorry.
00:25:51 I'm sorry for both of you.
00:25:54 Thank you, my dear.
00:25:57 You are married now, aren't you?
00:25:59 Yes, many years after.
00:26:01 Her wife, my family, approved of her.
00:26:03 She's away just now.
00:26:05 That's why I'm able to have you here, until we find a suitable home for you.
00:26:09 I want you to rest.
00:26:12 I want you to rest and be quiet for a while.
00:26:13 Forget what you've been through.
00:26:15 Here we are, my dears.
00:26:20 A nice cup of tea.
00:26:22 It's all right, I've told her.
00:26:24 Nanny knows our story.
00:26:26 In fact, it was her idea that you came here.
00:26:28 We thought you'd better be my niece from the country.
00:26:30 I don't want to be dependent on anybody.
00:26:32 I can earn my own living.
00:26:34 I can sew.
00:26:36 And a very good idea, too.
00:26:38 We're short of a girl in the sewing room.
00:26:42 There, now, if I haven't forgotten the sugar.
00:26:44 Go down to the cellar and fetch a deer, will you?
00:26:46 Down the stairs on the right and then left.
00:26:48 Yes, Mrs. Henry.
00:26:50 That's the girl. And then come back and enjoy your tea.
00:26:52 The deer is not far off.
00:26:57 But she's the right stuff, Mr. Clive. She'll do.
00:27:00 There they are.
00:27:05 Fine sewing.
00:27:07 Some people have got all the luck.
00:27:10 Indeed, to goodness, yes.
00:27:11 Tell me, Kathleen,
00:27:14 what do you do when a strange man makes sheep's eyes at you?
00:27:17 I just toss my head at him nonchalantly.
00:27:19 But what if he speaks to you?
00:27:21 Shall I give him a clout?
00:27:23 Oh.
00:27:25 Which would you rather have?
00:27:27 A beard or a moustache?
00:27:29 Neither. I like them clean.
00:27:31 (WHISTLE BLOWS)
00:27:33 Oh, damn it.
00:27:35 Whatever do you want now?
00:27:39 Oh, to goodness, you don't say.
00:27:40 It's Mr. Seymour returned home unexpected.
00:27:43 Herself, begone.
00:27:45 And her bed not made. What are we to do? Whatever.
00:27:47 Oh, what a day.
00:27:49 Changing her mind all of a sudden,
00:27:51 spending the night in London,
00:27:53 pecking all morning, travelling all afternoon.
00:27:55 Mold you, calms your sweet fatigue.
00:27:58 Farewell, I'll tell you.
00:28:00 Who are you?
00:28:02 I'm helping with the fine sewing.
00:28:05 She's Mistress Heaviside's maid.
00:28:07 She's Mistress Heaviside's niece.
00:28:08 Not bad.
00:28:14 Go and get a tray for Madame.
00:28:16 Leave me.
00:28:18 I'm much too busy.
00:28:20 Mom, it's you.
00:28:22 Come on.
00:28:24 Who's that?
00:28:29 Miss Carter, Mistress Seymour's personal maid.
00:28:32 I've got it, Kathleen.
00:28:34 What is that?
00:28:35 No, no, no, it is there.
00:28:37 Carter.
00:28:39 Carter, where on earth are you?
00:28:41 Carter.
00:28:43 Hello.
00:28:47 And who may you be?
00:28:49 Only Hooper, Mom.
00:28:51 Only Hooper.
00:28:53 Just like that.
00:28:55 What do you do?
00:28:57 Sewing, mostly.
00:28:59 Who engaged you?
00:29:01 Mistress Heaviside.
00:29:03 Seymour, only Hooper.
00:29:04 Come and help me out of these things.
00:29:06 I like the look of you.
00:29:08 But Mom, I...
00:29:10 Come on, this way.
00:29:12 Oh, that's lovely.
00:29:18 First the pins.
00:29:20 Yes, Madame.
00:29:22 Tell me about yourself.
00:29:24 You've got the most attractive eyes.
00:29:26 I believe you're blushing.
00:29:28 You must mind what I say, only Hooper.
00:29:30 Nobody ever minds what I say.
00:29:32 How old are you?
00:29:33 Nineteen, Mom.
00:29:35 Come, brush my hair.
00:29:37 I wish I was nineteen.
00:29:41 No, I don't. I'd hate to be nineteen.
00:29:44 Are you a lover?
00:29:46 No, Mom.
00:29:48 You soon will have with those eyes, I can tell you.
00:29:50 Give me the nail buffer.
00:29:55 Thank you.
00:29:57 Hello. What are you doing home so early?
00:30:01 We didn't expect you back so soon, mind you.
00:30:02 Don't worry, I'm not staying.
00:30:04 I'm off to the Hill Mortons tomorrow.
00:30:06 I only rushed in for some clothes and some money.
00:30:08 A hundred to do.
00:30:10 By the way, this is only Hooper.
00:30:12 I found her in the sewing room.
00:30:14 I'm thinking of kidnapping her to help Carver keep me in order.
00:30:16 Fancy that old dragon, Mrs. Heaviside,
00:30:19 finding someone so attractive.
00:30:21 Now, don't forget the money.
00:30:23 Run away now.
00:30:25 You know I don't like an audience when I dress.
00:30:27 Shall we see you at dinner?
00:30:30 I'm sorry, I have to.
00:30:31 Watch Carver's sock when she sees you.
00:30:34 Anything wrong, Carver?
00:30:43 No, Madame. Nothing at all.
00:30:45 I really think I will have to speak to Mrs. Heaviside about you.
00:30:51 If only to annoy Carver.
00:30:53 Stuff and nonsense.
00:30:57 Madame will be gone tomorrow.
00:30:59 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:00 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:02 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:04 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:06 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:08 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:10 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:12 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:14 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:16 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:18 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:20 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:22 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:24 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:26 I'm sure she'll be there.
00:31:29 I know what I am going to do.
00:31:30 I know what I am going to do.
00:31:32 Take her to Wharton.
00:31:34 Give her a real holiday before she begins her new life.
00:31:36 Give her a real holiday before she begins her new life.
00:31:38 Is that wise, Mr. Clive?
00:31:40 She's my daughter.
00:31:42 For a few weeks she shall live as my daughter.
00:31:44 I haven't had a holiday myself for years.
00:31:46 I haven't had a holiday myself for years.
00:31:48 Don't spoil it, Nanny.
00:31:51 [music playing]
00:31:54 [music playing]
00:31:58 [music playing]
00:32:01 There, you see?
00:32:26 Mate.
00:32:27 Oh, am I very stupid?
00:32:29 Oh, Chessie's an old man's pastime.
00:32:32 You've done quite well for a beginner.
00:32:34 Have some more port.
00:32:36 You know, since I brought you here,
00:32:39 you've given me more happiness
00:32:41 than I thought I should ever enjoy again.
00:32:43 I've loved every moment of it.
00:32:45 When you came to Belgrave Square,
00:32:50 I thought of you as,
00:32:52 well, someone to whom I owed a respect.
00:32:55 Someone to whom I owed a responsibility.
00:32:56 But now I've got to know you better.
00:32:58 You've become a person in your own right.
00:33:00 I'd like the whole world to know that you're my daughter.
00:33:04 Oh, no.
00:33:06 I'd only make you unhappy.
00:33:08 And you've been so good to me.
00:33:10 Good?
00:33:12 Well, the only thing I can think of
00:33:14 is to find you a husband really worthy of you.
00:33:17 I don't want a husband.
00:33:19 At least, not unless I could--
00:33:22 Unless what?
00:33:24 Unless I could tell him the truth.
00:33:25 The truth?
00:33:27 About us.
00:33:29 Oh, you nasty little brute, go away!
00:33:53 Tommy!
00:33:54 Tommy!
00:33:56 Tommy, come on.
00:33:58 Is she your dog?
00:34:03 He is.
00:34:05 Then you should make him behave better.
00:34:07 Look what he's done.
00:34:09 Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
00:34:11 I had no idea.
00:34:13 Oh, I say, not a very good swan, is it?
00:34:15 It's a beautiful swan.
00:34:17 Look at its neck.
00:34:19 Well, what's the matter with its neck?
00:34:22 Is it a hen or a goose?
00:34:24 Please forgive us.
00:34:29 Just this one?
00:34:31 Only on condition that you make her behave better in future.
00:34:33 It's a he.
00:34:35 And on Tommy's behalf, I promise he'll never do it again.
00:34:37 Well, I must go now.
00:34:41 Lovely day, isn't it?
00:34:44 Yes, lovely.
00:34:46 I always think the country looks best this time of year.
00:34:49 Don't you think so?
00:34:52 You know, you're awfully lucky living in the country in this weather.
00:34:54 Do you live far from here?
00:34:56 Not far.
00:34:58 I'm thinking of spending my summer holidays down here.
00:35:02 Perhaps we'll meet again.
00:35:04 I shall be gone by then.
00:35:06 Oh, then you don't live here?
00:35:08 No.
00:35:10 Well, I really must be going now.
00:35:14 I'm awfully sorry about the picture.
00:35:16 And it's a loveless one.
00:35:20 Goodbye.
00:35:21 Tommy?
00:35:23 Tommy?
00:35:25 Hello.
00:35:48 What are you doing here?
00:35:49 Come along.
00:35:51 Come along.
00:35:53 Tommy.
00:35:59 H. Somerville.
00:36:01 One Fillamore Gardens, London.
00:36:03 So you're Tommy.
00:36:05 And he's H. Somerville.
00:36:08 And he's H. Somerville.
00:36:09 Come on, Tommy.
00:36:26 There's a good dog.
00:36:28 I imagine the PM will call an emergency cabinet meeting almost at once.
00:36:36 Without blood, sir, any sign of weakness or delay will give them just the opportunity they want.
00:36:39 Still, they have a very great respect for you, sir, since the Egyptian debate.
00:36:44 I hope so.
00:36:46 Well, OK, you better take those and wait for me in the carriage.
00:36:48 Very well, sir.
00:36:50 I shall only be a few minutes.
00:36:51 Right, sir.
00:36:53 [birds chirping]
00:36:54 Look what I found in my room.
00:37:08 I've got to go back to London.
00:37:10 Must you?
00:37:12 I'm afraid so.
00:37:14 I've had a message that makes it essential.
00:37:16 Did he bring it?
00:37:18 Who had it? Here.
00:37:21 I don't think he's horrid at all.
00:37:22 As a matter of fact, Harry Somerville is about the best friend I've got.
00:37:25 Tommy! Tommy!
00:37:29 Come on.
00:37:31 Where have you been, you young scamp, eh?
00:37:34 Where have you been?
00:37:36 Goodbye, my child.
00:37:43 Take great care of yourself.
00:37:45 You've grown very dear to me.
00:37:47 And so have you to me.

00:40:42 I'm sorry, my child.
00:40:45 Very well. I won't tease you anymore.
00:40:47 I want to look my best tonight.
00:40:52 Is it a special party, madam?
00:40:54 Yes, only Hooper. A very special party.
00:40:57 Thank you.
00:41:01 [Music]
00:41:16 Oh, don't wait up for me.
00:41:18 Go to bed and dream about your chess match.
00:41:22 [Music]
00:41:32 There she is.
00:41:34 Where?
00:41:36 Over there. Can't you see her girl dress?
00:41:37 She's never dancing with a sane man.
00:41:39 She is.
00:41:41 How many times is that?
00:41:42 Look how he's holding her.
00:41:44 My, did you ever see the light?
00:41:46 They're touching.
00:41:48 Come on, let's tell Miss Carver.
00:41:51 There's a bit of excitement in her with a gumball.
00:41:52 That'll make me bust it. Come on.
00:41:54 Let me look.
00:41:56 Yes, Miss Carver.
00:41:58 Hmm.
00:42:02 We buy our nightgowns at Raveston V in Paris.
00:42:05 Paris?
00:42:07 Well, don't stand there dreaming.
00:42:09 Now for thrills.
00:42:11 Yes, Miss Carver.
00:42:13 Beat it.
00:42:14 Miss Carver. Miss Carver.
00:42:15 Miss Carver. Miss Carver.
00:42:17 What is it?
00:42:20 The lady.
00:42:21 She's danced four times with a sane man.
00:42:23 Is that all?
00:42:25 What's all the excitement about?
00:42:27 If she did that in Pollock's Shield, she'd get hissed off the floor.
00:42:29 Pollock's Shield?
00:42:31 He was touching.
00:42:33 You should have seen the chaperones crannying their necks.
00:42:35 The old cats, they're jealous.
00:42:37 They want him. We've got him.
00:42:39 Shouldn't be surprised if we're not in a leg day this time next year.
00:42:42 Oh, Miss Carver.
00:42:44 Don't you let on I told you so.
00:42:46 But how could that come about?
00:42:49 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:42:50 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:42:52 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:42:54 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:42:56 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:42:58 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:00 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:02 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:04 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:06 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:08 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:10 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:12 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:14 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:16 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:18 I'm sure it's a good thing.

00:43:21 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:23 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:25 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:27 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:29 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:31 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:33 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:35 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:37 I'm sure it's a good thing.
00:43:39 I'm sure it's a good thing.

00:44:34 (gentle music)
00:44:36 - I've seen you somewhere before.
00:45:03 - I don't think so, sir.
00:45:04 - It's that scoundrel Hopwood's daughter.
00:45:08 - I'm Mrs. Seymour's maid, sir.
00:45:10 My name is Hooper.
00:45:11 - Oh, no, it isn't.
00:45:12 - My name is Hooper, sir.
00:45:13 - All right.
00:45:14 I'm not gonna quarrel with a pretty girl like you,
00:45:18 especially if she's got something for me.
00:45:19 - Yes, I think I have.
00:45:22 This.
00:45:24 - Oh, thanks.
00:45:27 Where'd you find this?
00:45:30 - On the floor.
00:45:32 (gentle music)
00:45:34 (gentle music)
00:46:02 - Mrs. Heaviside told me you were here.
00:46:05 Fanny, I can't deny it.
00:46:06 I'm going to tell Alicia the truth.
00:46:08 - No, Father, you mustn't, please.
00:46:09 - Yes, it's fairer to both of you.
00:46:11 Fanny, are you leaving?
00:46:14 - Yes.
00:46:16 - But why?
00:46:17 Has Alicia been unkind to you?
00:46:19 - No, Father, it's not that.
00:46:20 Please don't ask me, I...
00:46:22 - Oh, the chessmen.
00:46:25 Really, my dear Clyde, is my bedroom quite the place?
00:46:30 I must say, I think it's a little indelicate of you
00:46:31 to plant your mistress on me as a spy.
00:46:33 - Alicia.
00:46:34 - I hope, Hooper, you've made the best of your story.
00:46:36 Something really vivid and dramatic, plenty of detail.
00:46:39 - Alicia, what are you talking about?
00:46:41 I don't understand.
00:46:43 - Oh, I came in a second too soon.
00:46:46 It was the first raptures of meeting I interrupted,
00:46:48 not the confidential report.
00:46:50 Please go on, Hooper.
00:46:53 - Do you really want me to, madam?
00:46:56 - No.
00:46:58 I'll tell him myself.
00:47:01 (gentle music)
00:47:03 - I love Jerry Manderstoke.
00:47:05 I'm going to divorce you and marry him.
00:47:07 - This is a joke.
00:47:08 You can't divorce me, Alicia.
00:47:10 - Oh?
00:47:12 What about only Hooper?
00:47:13 - Alicia.
00:47:22 - Yes?
00:47:23 - Alicia Fanny is my daughter.
00:47:29 - You're...
00:47:30 Oh, Fred, you're getting quite ingenious.
00:47:34 - She is my daughter, Alicia.
00:47:36 - Is this true, Clive?
00:47:41 - Yes.
00:47:42 I came here to tell you.
00:47:43 - Please leave us, Hooper.
00:47:47 I'm sorry for what I said just now, Clive.
00:47:54 I didn't understand.
00:47:56 (gentle music)
00:47:58 - Listen, Clive, we don't love each other.
00:48:05 We never have.
00:48:07 But now for the first time in my life, I am in love.
00:48:10 And you too found someone to care for.
00:48:12 I'm glad it makes me feel less guilty.
00:48:15 Let me divorce you, Clive.
00:48:17 I can't be divorced.
00:48:17 I'm a woman.
00:48:18 It would ruin me.
00:48:19 I'll keep Fanny out of it.
00:48:20 I'll name an unknown woman, Clive.
00:48:23 - But you forget, Alicia.
00:48:25 I'm a public servant, not a private individual.
00:48:28 - Oh yes, I know.
00:48:29 You'll have to give up all that sort of thing,
00:48:31 but you know you much prefer living in the country.
00:48:33 You could live at Orton with Fanny.
00:48:35 Think how happy you'll be together.
00:48:37 You'd still have plenty of money, and you'd be able to-
00:48:39 - Still?
00:48:40 - Well, of course I'd have to have a settlement
00:48:42 or whatever you call it.
00:48:43 - Couldn't Manderstoke support you?
00:48:45 - Poor boy, he hasn't a penny.
00:48:47 Please, Clive.
00:48:48 - I see.
00:48:51 Now let me get this quite clear.
00:48:55 You want me to let myself be divorced
00:48:57 so that you can marry Manderstoke?
00:48:59 - Yes.
00:49:00 - You want me to make a money settlement on you
00:49:04 so that he can support you in what is called, I believe,
00:49:07 the style to which you are accustomed?
00:49:09 - Yes.
00:49:10 - You want me to betray my colleagues and my country?
00:49:12 - Oh.
00:49:13 - Yes, Alicia, my country.
00:49:15 So that you can still have your box at the opera
00:49:18 and go to tea with the Duchess of Devonshire.
00:49:21 No, Alicia, I will not.
00:49:23 - Very well.
00:49:24 Very well then, defend my suit.
00:49:27 Prove Fanny is your daughter, if you can.
00:49:30 - I can.
00:49:31 - I don't somehow think she'll be very grateful to you
00:49:33 by the time the case is over.
00:49:35 I don't envy her her place in the witness box.
00:49:37 I believe Miss Hooper, your father,
00:49:40 oh, I beg your pardon, your foster father,
00:49:42 was killed in a street brawl.
00:49:44 Was that not so, Miss Hooper?
00:49:46 And I understand that he was also the keeper
00:49:47 of a disgraceful house,
00:49:49 which was afterwards closed by the police.
00:49:51 Was not that so, Miss Hooper?
00:49:53 And I believe that you yourself were brought up in a--
00:49:55 - Alicia!
00:49:57 - Yes.
00:49:58 I'm not sure that your country and your colleagues,
00:50:00 to whom you show such touching loyalty,
00:50:02 will be very grateful to you either.
00:50:03 And I'm not sure the Queen will much relish
00:50:05 a cabinet minister with an illegitimate daughter.
00:50:08 Let me know what you decide.

00:50:17 (dramatic music)
00:50:20 (dramatic music)
00:50:23 (dramatic music)
00:50:51 - I need not tell you why I am leaving.
00:50:53 It will be better for both of us.
00:50:56 Better for both of us.
00:51:02 Better for both of us.

00:51:31 - Fatal accident of the cabinet minister!
00:51:33 Mr. Clive Seymour falls on the train!
00:51:36 Read all about it!
00:51:41 - I'll arrange for solicitors to collect this.
00:51:44 These two will go to his bankers.
00:51:45 Perhaps you'd hand these to the masters,
00:51:51 Emily Thorpe, and lastly, yourself.
00:51:54 (Emily sobs)
00:51:58 - Why did he do this?
00:52:00 - So you didn't believe it was an accident either?
00:52:05 - He should have let her divorce him.
00:52:07 He could have lived it down.
00:52:08 - Cabinet minister?
00:52:10 No.
00:52:11 - Now the scandal might have brought down
00:52:13 the government too.
00:52:14 Can't you imagine the headlines?
00:52:16 The whole of his past life,
00:52:17 anything he wanted to keep hidden?
00:52:18 - He'd got nothing to be ashamed of.
00:52:20 He was only thinking of others.
00:52:21 - Then there was something.
00:52:24 This girl, Fanny Hooper, wasn't she at Orton with him?
00:52:32 - She was.
00:52:33 - Look, wouldn't it be as well for you
00:52:38 to tell me what she was to him?
00:52:41 - You'd better ask her that, sir.
00:52:43 She'll tell you if she wants to.
00:52:44 - Well, where can I find her?
00:52:46 - At the Jolly Bar G, River Road, Islington.
00:52:49 It's a public house, sir.
00:52:52 - Oh.
00:52:55 Wait here, will you please?
00:53:00 (crowd chattering)
00:53:04 (crowd chattering)
00:53:07 - Oi, Tom!
00:53:15 Tom!
00:53:16 Tom!
00:53:16 - Good evening.
00:53:25 I wish to see Miss Hooper.
00:53:28 - Miss Hooper?
00:53:29 Oh, what name should I say?
00:53:32 - Somerford, Hattie Somerford.
00:53:34 - I'll see if Miss Hooper's at home.
00:53:36 (crowd laughing)
00:53:37 - Junks!
00:53:39 Mr. Topp outside wants to see our Fanny.
00:53:41 - Mm-hmm.
00:53:42 - What might you want with Miss Fanny?
00:53:51 - I have a letter for her.
00:53:53 - Hmm.
00:53:54 - I wish to give it to her personally.
00:53:56 - This way.
00:54:03 - Here, what's he after?
00:54:04 - It's all right, Junks.
00:54:12 - My name is Somerford, Mr. Seymour's private secretary.
00:54:25 - There's no use pretending we haven't met before.
00:54:28 - Mr. Seymour left this envelope addressed to you.
00:54:30 I thought it better to deliver it in person
00:54:31 in case there were some technical details
00:54:33 you don't understand.
00:54:34 - Technical details?
00:54:35 What is it?
00:54:37 - Why don't you open it and see?
00:54:39 - Share certificates.
00:54:45 I'm afraid I don't understand these things.
00:54:47 - I could arrange for them to be looked after for you.
00:54:49 I'm also Mr. Seymour's trustee.
00:54:51 - Thank you.
00:54:52 Excuse me.
00:54:55 (gentle music)
00:54:57 - Mr. Somerford.
00:55:04 - Hmm?
00:55:05 - There's something in this letter
00:55:06 my father wanted you to know.
00:55:07 - Your father?
00:55:09 - Yes, my father.
00:55:13 Harry Somerford will send you this.
00:55:19 When you write to acknowledge it,
00:55:20 I want you to tell him who you are.
00:55:23 Tell him true that I love and trust him
00:55:25 as I would my own son.
00:55:27 - Father.
00:55:29 I'm so very sorry.
00:55:32 If there's anything I could ever do, I...
00:55:39 - Thank you.
00:55:40 - Goodbye.
00:55:44 - Goodbye.
00:55:53 - I have had two weeks of perfect happiness in my life.
00:55:56 And one of them I owe to you, my beloved child.
00:56:00 God bless and keep you.
00:56:03 Your father.

01:00:57 - You're...
01:00:58 Call it that if you like.
01:01:01 Miss Hooper, for some months, Harry's been causing
01:01:03 his mother and me great anxiety.
01:01:05 We know, of course, that every young man has to...
01:01:08 sow his wild oats.
01:01:10 But this morning, he announced his intention of marrying you.
01:01:13 - Marrying me?
01:01:15 - I mean, he'd hardly tell you that it would mean
01:01:16 the ruin of his career,
01:01:18 which depends so much on his social connections.
01:01:20 - Not on his ability?
01:01:22 - My brother is in politics, Miss Hooper, not in business.
01:01:26 - I've taken the trouble to have inquiries made
01:01:28 about your past.
01:01:30 I know who you are, and what you are.
01:01:33 Your sordid upbringing...
01:01:35 your affair with the husband of your employer.
01:01:37 - That's not true, isn't it?
01:01:39 - What about that visit to Orton?
01:01:41 Your flimsy pretense that you were the housekeeper's niece.
01:01:44 And you dare to talk of marrying my brother.
01:01:47 - I didn't talk of marrying him.
01:01:49 You did that.
01:01:50 I've no intention of marrying him, and never had.
01:01:53 I know what your sort of world would do to him.
01:01:56 And I love him.
01:01:58 - I really believe you do.
01:02:02 - Thank you.
01:02:04 - If you love him...
01:02:07 you must go out of his life forever and never see him again.
01:02:10 - But why?
01:02:11 I told you I won't marry him!
01:02:12 - That's just it.
01:02:14 He ought to marry, to have a home and children.
01:02:17 Someone who can share the whole of life with him.
01:02:20 Not just a corner of it.
01:02:23 You can't give him those things. You just said so yourself.
01:02:26 It's in your power to make it possible for him to have them.
01:02:30 - How?
01:02:31 - I've told you.
01:02:32 He thinks now that you're...
01:02:34 "made for each other," as he puts it.
01:02:36 But this infatuation may not last forever.
01:02:39 If it doesn't...
01:02:41 what's left him?
01:02:43 No home, no children, a ruined career...
01:02:46 and his career means a great deal to him.
01:02:49 Oh, he wouldn't blame you if he's not that sort.
01:02:53 Oh, Miss Hooper, you must see...
01:02:55 that to hold onto him now isn't love...
01:02:58 it's selfishness.
01:03:01 I leave it to you.
01:03:06 (children chattering)
01:03:13 (children chattering)
01:03:24 - Hold him, darling.
01:03:26 (children chattering)
01:03:30 - I didn't think Kate would come so early.
01:03:41 - Well...what's she been saying to you?
01:03:45 Very well...I'll tell you what she said.
01:03:54 "You're a scarlet woman...low and cunning.
01:03:57 "You won't be satisfied until you drag me down
01:04:00 "to your own abysmal level,
01:04:01 "cut me off from all my friends, and ruin my career."
01:04:05 Yes, I can just hear her...ruin my career.
01:04:09 And even if it did, my darling, do you think I'd care a rap...
01:04:11 if my career depends on giving you up?
01:04:13 And to hell with my career.
01:04:16 Now...in case I haven't made myself quite clear...
01:04:23 I want to ask you a question.
01:04:25 Fanny...will you marry me?
01:04:29 - I can't! - Now listen, Fanny...
01:04:32 Kate has probably told you that I'm a very obstinate man.
01:04:35 I am, and I have no intention of leaving this room
01:04:37 until you say yes.
01:04:39 So...Fanny, will you marry me?
01:04:43 Fanny...will you marry me?
01:04:50 What did you say?
01:04:57 - Nothing! - You said yes!
01:04:59 - I didn't mean-- - I don't care what you meant!
01:05:01 You said yes!
01:05:03 You said yes.
01:05:06 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:08 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:10 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:12 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:14 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:16 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:18 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:20 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:22 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:24 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:26 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:28 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:30 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:32 I don't care what you mean.
01:05:34 Goodbye.

01:06:13 Mrs. Dorringore has considered Miss Hooper's application for a post as governess.
01:06:18 Since Miss Hooper is not able to supply satisfactory references,
01:06:22 she regrets that she cannot see her way to engage her.
01:06:26 So you can't blame us, and of course, we never return fees.
01:06:31 Good day.
01:06:33 Good day.
01:06:35 Yes, you'll do nice. Very nice indeed.
01:06:38 No need to bother about references, I'm broad-minded.
01:06:41 Yes, you and I'll get on fine.
01:06:43 Ten bob a week, everything found, and you sleep in, of course.
01:06:49 I'll think it over.
01:06:51 [music]
01:06:55 Well, I'd...says me right being broad-minded.
01:06:59 [music]
01:07:27 There must be some friend she could have gone to.
01:07:29 Don't you know...there's young Lucy Beckett.
01:07:32 She might have gone to her.
01:07:34 She went on the stage. The Gayety Theatre, I think.
01:07:36 That's right.
01:07:37 Gayety. The Gayety Theatre.
01:07:39 [footsteps]
01:07:42 Good evening, my dear.
01:07:44 Oh, thank you. How lovely.
01:07:47 Now you suggest where we go.
01:07:49 Let's see.
01:07:55 Someone's let her down.
01:07:57 Lucy.
01:07:59 Fanny.
01:08:03 Lucy, can I speak to you?
01:08:05 Can't talk here. My dressing room.
01:08:08 Good night, Lucy.
01:08:11 Hurry up, girls. Can't stay here all night.
01:08:14 Don't touch her, please.
01:08:16 Becky, darling.
01:08:17 Bye to the end, Fanny.
01:08:19 What happened, Lucy?
01:08:21 Did your military match-up give you the go-by?
01:08:24 Oh, come on. Tell me all about it.
01:08:27 I wouldn't have come here at all looking like this, but...
01:08:30 I can't get a job.
01:08:32 You see, I have no references.
01:08:34 And I wonder, perhaps, if you could...
01:08:37 It's a man, isn't it?
01:08:39 Yes.
01:08:41 This him?
01:08:44 Where did you get that?
01:08:46 He thought being a friend, I might know where you were.
01:08:49 He's been searching town for you.
01:08:53 Don't tell him you've seen me.
01:08:55 I don't want him to know where I am.
01:08:57 All right. But I think you're a fool.
01:09:00 He's the kind of man who'd take care of a girl.
01:09:02 Lucy, you must promise.
01:09:04 It's none of my business.
01:09:06 You look half-starved.
01:09:10 I am hungry.
01:09:12 I know. We'll go to Evans'.
01:09:14 Oh, Lucy, I can't.
01:09:16 Don't worry. I'll lead you.
01:09:18 Here. This ought to fit you perfectly.
01:09:22 Oh, it's lovely.
01:09:24 Is it yours?
01:09:26 Good Lord, no. It belongs to one of the girls.
01:09:28 She won't mind.
01:09:30 But, Lucy, what about my hair?
01:09:32 This is no time for butts. Use one of those bangs.
01:09:34 You'll find everything on the dressing table.
01:09:36 I'll get you something to wear on top.
01:09:38 There you are. Now, that's his name.
01:09:50 Go to the Dittinger Club.
01:09:52 Ask the porter where he is and find him.
01:09:54 He'll tip you a sovereign.
01:09:56 But what have you done?
01:09:58 He promised. Now, hurry.
01:10:00 Well, good night, Betty.
01:10:08 Good night, darling.
01:10:18 Please. Come on, Penny.
01:10:20 Excuse me.
01:10:22 Here you are.
01:10:26 Five shillings just to come in.
01:10:30 What'll they charge for supper?
01:10:32 Oh, don't worry. We shan't have to pay.
01:10:34 Why are there only women here?
01:10:36 Ladies aren't allowed in the supper room unless accompanied by a gentleman.
01:10:39 Oh. Don't worry. We'll be out there soon.
01:10:43 Trust Lucy.
01:10:46 Let's go somewhere else.
01:10:48 What for?
01:10:50 You won't come to any harm, silly.
01:10:52 I know how to get rid of them.
01:10:54 As soon as they've paid the bill.
01:10:56 Something for nothing. That's my motto.
01:10:58 Charlie! Charlie!
01:11:00 Don't be a spoilsport, Penny.
01:11:02 Do try and look as though you're enjoying yourself.
01:11:04 Come on, smile.
01:11:06 Still the same old Lucy.
01:11:08 And why not? Look what being a good girl's done for you.
01:11:10 Oh. What's the matter?
01:11:12 I've just seen someone.
01:11:14 You mean that man with the smart woman?
01:11:16 Not the usual type for here. I wonder who she is.
01:11:18 He looks very interesting.
01:11:21 He's a beast.
01:11:23 A devil.
01:11:25 You're rather like devilish men.
01:11:27 Lucy, let's get out of here.
01:11:29 Oh, sit down again, silly. They've got no eyes for anyone but each other.
01:11:32 Look, he's smiling at her.
01:11:34 I were to select one quality in you, my love,
01:11:36 which makes you particularly fascinating to me.
01:11:39 It's your unique talent for making yourself disagreeable.
01:11:42 I suppose you expect me to be overwhelmed with gratitude
01:11:44 for being brought to a place like this.
01:11:46 You always reproach me for not taking you out.
01:11:48 This seems the ideal place for you to display your charms.
01:11:51 You know how you love doing that.
01:11:53 I don't sell my charms.
01:11:55 Isn't that perhaps because you're uncertain of the market?
01:11:58 The only difference between you and these delightful ladies
01:12:01 is that they make it their business to please.
01:12:03 Why don't you invite one of them to come over and join us?
01:12:06 That's very nice of you.
01:12:08 Which one would you like?
01:12:10 The scarlet satin has a certain something, I think, don't you?
01:12:13 Or would you prefer the black with spangles?
01:12:16 Gee, don't you love me at all?
01:12:19 No.
01:12:27 He's coming over here.
01:12:35 Lucy, don't attract his attention.
01:12:38 Let's go.
01:12:40 Good evening. Have I seen you somewhere before?
01:12:52 You might have, forget it. I'm in the chorus, front row.
01:12:55 Of course. Where else would you be?
01:12:58 My wife would be glad if you'd join us for a glass of wine.
01:13:01 Your wife?
01:13:03 And your friend. Is she in the chorus, too?
01:13:06 Come, my dear, don't be shy.
01:13:09 Well, I'll be damned.
01:13:14 The little Puritan of Fanny Hopwood.
01:13:17 My dear, Lucia, surely you're not leaving us?
01:13:21 Here's a friend of yours. Almost, one might say, a relation.
01:13:25 Let me go.
01:13:34 Not on your life. If you don't want to be made love to,
01:13:37 why come to the pen at Edmunds?
01:13:39 Born and bred in the rarefied atmosphere of Hopwood's shade.
01:13:42 Do you mind taking your hands off this lady?
01:13:45 Now, Somerford, what's Miss Hopwood to you?
01:13:48 Miss Hooper is a friend of mine.
01:13:50 Hooper? I beg your pardon.
01:13:53 Friend, eh? First Clive Seymour, and then...
01:13:56 - Clare, please, please! - Let me out, please!
01:14:01 Go on.
01:14:04 Lucy!
01:14:06 Oh, Milord. Oh, Milord, I'm afraid, beaucoup.
01:14:10 - Lord? - Je suis loin de ta rivessa.
01:14:13 Oh, I feel very sorry.
01:14:16 No, Harry, I've made up my mind.
01:14:22 - That's why I ran away. - You're wrong, Fanny, wrong.
01:14:26 No, I'm right, just as your sister was right.
01:14:29 If I married you, it would ruin your career.
01:14:32 - Look what happened to mine. - A few things happened to my career since you went away.
01:14:37 I haven't been able to think of anything except you.
01:14:40 It's an awful thing to admit.
01:14:43 I don't think I could live without you.
01:14:46 Nothing... nothing seems...
01:14:50 I need you, Fanny.
01:14:56 Please.
01:15:00 Don't ever leave me again.
01:15:02 I can't argue anymore.
01:15:05 I'm so tired.
01:15:07 I'm so hungry.
01:15:09 Oh, poor darling.
01:15:11 Junks!
01:15:14 Junks!
01:15:17 Junks!
01:15:22 What a devilish...
01:15:27 Fanny!
01:15:29 Fanny, come down! Never mind about your curlers. Fanny, come home.
01:15:34 Fanny, you're a naughty girl.
01:15:37 - So I take it you still refuse to live at home. - I'm sorry, Mother.
01:15:45 No one can say I'm not broad-minded, but that an infatuation of this sort should last so long...
01:15:50 Well, it's not usual.
01:15:52 - It isn't an infatuation. - Oh, my dear boy.
01:15:55 I mean it, Mother. The longer I'm with her, the more certain I am.
01:15:59 It hadn't been for interference.
01:16:02 Poor Kate.
01:16:06 You'll forgive me, Mother.
01:16:21 That was cruel of you, Harry. What Kate did was for your own good. You'll live to thank her for it.
01:16:25 I doubt it.
01:16:27 Leaving out what you owe to your family. You used to have some idea of service to your country.
01:16:31 - Still have, I hope. - Can you expect me to believe that...
01:16:34 when you persist in this association with a girl of Fanny Hooper's parentage?
01:16:38 Oh, Mother. It's time people were judged on what they are, not on their parentage.
01:16:43 My dear Harry, do you suggest that we should do away with class distinctions?
01:16:47 They will be done away with. A hundred years from now, less. There'll be no such thing.
01:16:52 If our high-born friends don't like it, so much the worse for them.
01:16:57 You, with your traditions, to say a thing like that.
01:17:01 You always were big-headed, but this is going beyond a joke.
01:17:04 That girl has poisoned your mind.
01:17:07 Until you come to your senses, I think it would be kinder if you didn't come to see us again.
01:17:12 As you wish.
01:17:14 Mother.
01:17:16 Mother.
01:17:21 - Mother, I'm sorry. - I shall believe that when you come and tell me...
01:17:26 that you've seen the last of this unfortunate girl.
01:17:29 (Footsteps)
01:17:31 (Gurgling)
01:17:40 (Gulps)
01:17:47 - What'll they be up to next? - Here. That thing's supposed to be a birthday present for Fanny.
01:17:52 You've been playing with it ever since you came here. Give it to Fanny.
01:17:56 (Laughs) Polly.
01:17:59 Look. My birthday present from Harry.
01:18:03 Oh, let's have a look. Lovely.
01:18:06 I'm not supposed to have seen it. It's supposed to be a surprise.
01:18:09 You're happy, aren't you? Happier than I ever thought possible.
01:18:12 - I think you're soft. You've got no hound on him. - I know what I'm doing, Polly.
01:18:16 Besides, I must think of him as well as myself.
01:18:19 Have a hand, sir.
01:18:24 It is! It's Harry! He's come home early because it's my birthday!
01:18:28 Isn't he wonderful?
01:18:30 Rude.
01:18:34 We're going straight back to the shop to change it.
01:18:38 I'm not going to have our Fannikins looking at some of these pictures.
01:18:41 - You've been keeping it to yourself all this time. Give it here. - No, no.
01:18:44 - Look out, Polly, my dear. Watch it, Chunks. - Watch it!
01:18:47 - What on earth have you got there? - Never you mind.
01:18:50 - Where? - Chunks gave it to me for a birthday present.
01:18:53 - He's been having a wonderful time with it. - You wait till you see my present.
01:18:56 I'll get it.
01:18:58 - You've been looking. - No, I haven't even peeped.
01:19:02 Anyway, that's not it.
01:19:04 - There. - What's this?
01:19:07 You always said you wanted to go to Paddy's.
01:19:10 Oh, he seems to have a present.
01:19:20 Oh, isn't it lovely?
01:19:22 Harry, look at the view.
01:19:25 - It is Madame's first visit to Paris? - Oui, Madame.
01:19:29 - Elle est ravissante. - Merci, Madame. I think so.
01:19:33 Si fraîche, si ingénue.
01:19:36 - You have the good luck. - Mm.
01:19:38 - And she also. - Oh, Madame.
01:19:41 Ah, je vous laisse.
01:19:44 Je vous laisse.
01:19:46 Si vous voulez quelque chose, kindly to ring.
01:19:59 La sonnette est là. One time pour la femme de chambre and two time for the waiter.
01:20:04 Amusez-vous bien, mes enfants, Madame.
01:20:11 - What did she say? - She told us to enjoy ourselves.
01:20:15 Do we need to be told?
01:20:17 Oh, look, we've got a balcony.
01:20:23 - What a lovely, wide street. - Most beautiful street in the world.
01:20:28 - It's the... - Don't tell me. I know. It's the Champs-Élysées.
01:20:31 - Did I pronounce that nicely? - Not badly.
01:20:34 Look, there's the Arc de Triomphe, built by an American.
01:20:38 And there's the Arc de Triomphe, built by Napoleon to commemorate the battle of...
01:20:42 Oh, dear, I'd forgotten.
01:20:45 There are so many things I want to see.
01:20:47 The Louvre, Notre-Dame, the shops and the restaurants and the streets.
01:20:51 Don't I come in anywhere?
01:20:53 Everywhere.
01:20:57 (Opera singing)
01:21:23 What's next?
01:21:25 - What's that? - Well, you'll see.
01:21:36 (Opera singing)
01:21:39 (Opera singing)

01:23:04 Holly!
01:23:06 I believe that's Lucy.
01:23:09 Look.
01:23:13 - I must put that question in front of it. - Lucille.
01:23:29 Then it must be.
01:23:32 So that's a lanyard fire.
01:23:35 I think I'll wait out here. She may not be dressed yet.
01:23:49 - She won't mind. - No, but I should.
01:23:52 (Sighs)
01:23:54 - Fanny! Fancy you in Paris! - Fancy you!
01:24:06 - We had the surprise of our lives. - Did you like me? Was I good?
01:24:09 Oh, yes! Your hair was wonderful.
01:24:12 I got the job because of my figure.
01:24:14 - The hair was a great help there, wasn't it? - Beast.
01:24:17 Now hurry up. We're going to take you out to supper.
01:24:19 Oh, my dear, I can't. Not tonight. I'm expecting a gentleman friend.
01:24:23 We're not going to take no for an answer.
01:24:26 Holly.
01:24:30 - Is it safe? - I don't know about safe, but...
01:24:34 Good evening, Lucille.
01:24:38 Harry Somerford.
01:24:40 Oh, my dears, I hope you don't think me directly rude, but...
01:24:43 Well, the gentleman I'm expecting is Lord Manderstoke.
01:24:46 Lord Manderstoke? Lucy, how can you be friends with a man like that?
01:24:50 I can be friends with whom I please, can't I?
01:24:53 Besides, I happen to be rather fond of him.
01:24:55 Harry, let's go. Yes, please go quickly. He's never forgiven you for knocking him down.
01:24:59 I have no objection to meeting Lord Manderstoke. On the contrary.
01:25:02 Oh, for my sake, I couldn't bear to see him.
01:25:05 Oh, you wish it.
01:25:07 Good evening, my love.
01:25:14 - Company, eh? - She was just going.
01:25:17 We've met before. Fanny Hopwood, isn't it?
01:25:22 Good night, Lucy.
01:25:25 Will you let him pass, please?
01:25:27 I beg you.
01:25:29 Another old acquaintance.
01:25:34 Good evening.
01:25:37 They're not running away, surely?
01:25:40 Lucy, where are your manners? Ask your friends to stay and have a drink with us.
01:25:45 Won't you stay?
01:25:47 I leave that to Fanny.
01:25:49 Please stay, Fanny.
01:25:52 Very well.
01:25:57 Thank you.
01:26:00 Just fancy, this is Fanny's first visit to Paris.
01:26:04 All the more cause for celebration.
01:26:07 No, not that one. This is a special occasion.
01:26:11 You see how well I've trained my little Lucy.
01:26:16 Glasses.
01:26:18 And how do you like Paris, Miss... Hooper?
01:26:22 Delightful city, isn't it?
01:26:24 A city made for adventure. Anything could happen here.
01:26:28 One's free from observation, free from criticism.
01:26:33 Just like your prim, old-fashioned London, where everything you are and do is remembered against you.
01:26:40 Not quite cool enough, I fear, but beautifully alive.
01:26:52 In England, we might call it too sweet.
01:26:55 But then in England, we don't like things very sweet.
01:26:59 Wine or women.
01:27:01 A dry, rough lot, eh, Somerford?
01:27:04 Miss Hooper.
01:27:06 Why so serious?
01:27:08 Come, my dear, smile.
01:27:10 Forget the past, the future.
01:27:13 Live for the day, the hour, the minute.
01:27:17 Somerford?
01:27:19 Who would have thought after our last meeting that we should be drinking together in friendship?
01:27:25 Take your glass, Lucy.
01:27:30 A toast.
01:27:32 To the settlement of our little misunderstanding.
01:27:36 Harry!
01:27:38 That, my dear Somerford, in this delightful France, is the recognized provocation to a duel.
01:27:44 In France, perhaps.
01:27:52 We happen to be in France.
01:27:54 I don't believe in settling quarrels, Edward.
01:27:58 I'm sorry.
01:28:01 I mistook you for a gentleman.
01:28:04 Shall we go?
01:28:08 He's ready to knock down a man who's drunk, but he's not risking his own precious skin.
01:28:16 Harry, be quick.
01:28:20 Let's get away from here.
01:28:22 We may be running away, but don't make it so obvious.
01:28:25 Oh, I've left my hat behind.
01:28:30 I'll just go and get it.
01:28:32 Don't go back. What does it matter?
01:28:34 It's a very expensive hat.
01:28:36 I'll be a minute.
01:28:38 (music)
01:29:00 Is that how you do it?
01:29:02 Where shall my seconds go?
01:29:07 I have a friend in Paris, a doctor, L'Hermitage.
01:29:11 If your seconds call on him at this address...
01:29:14 ...you'll make the necessary arrangements.
01:29:18 Thank you.
01:29:20 But it's all right.
01:29:22 Good night, Lucy.
01:29:28 Everybody.
01:29:33 Oh, my hat.
01:29:34 Yes, I've got it.
01:29:35 You didn't accept his challenge.
01:29:37 Who, me? You don't know your Harry.
01:29:39 You know, I'm as hungry as a hunter.
01:29:42 What do you say to a nice dish of escargot?
01:29:44 Escargot?
01:29:46 Snails.
01:29:47 Oh, Harry, I couldn't possibly eat snails.
01:29:50 All right, if you're squeamish, we'll just have some frog's legs.
01:29:52 I hear they're delicious.
01:29:54 (crunching)
01:29:57 (crunching)
01:29:59 (crunching)
01:30:28 If by any chance I do not come there...
01:30:31 ...then you did accept his challenge.
01:30:35 Why did you pretend?
01:30:39 I didn't want to spoil our first evening together in Paris.
01:30:42 Oh, Harry, why did you do it?
01:30:44 An affair of honor.
01:30:47 Honor? Stupid, idiotic pride.
01:30:50 What has honor got to do with it?
01:30:52 I thought you despised these ridiculous, played-out conventions.
01:30:55 I do.
01:30:57 Then why?
01:30:59 Probably because I'm not brave enough to refuse.
01:31:02 What about me?
01:31:06 My darling, I'm thinking of you.
01:31:09 This fellow, Amanda Stokes, seems to have some kind of evil influence on your life.
01:31:19 So you thought so, too.
01:31:21 I can't just stand by and see you hurt and shamed by anyone.
01:31:24 Don't you see, my darling, this meeting had to come sooner or later.
01:31:27 We can't be haunted by him all our life.
01:31:29 Everyone I've loved.
01:31:31 It's wicked, monstrous.
01:31:34 Harry, I can't let you go. I can't.
01:31:37 He'll kill you. I saw it in his eyes.
01:31:40 No, I know he won't. He's probably just as rotten a shot as I am.
01:31:43 Harry!
01:31:46 My own darling.
01:31:50 I must go now.
01:31:54 Wouldn't do to keep him waiting.
01:31:56 I shall be very hungry when I get back, so keep me some rolls.
01:32:05 Harry!
01:32:07 Don't go. Don't.
01:32:09 My darling.
01:32:11 Harry!

01:32:48 (crickets chirping)
01:32:51 - Morning, Dr. Vandervelde.
01:33:17 - Bonjour, my dear samovar.
01:33:19 These gentlemen have consented to act as your seconds
01:33:22 if you approve, Monsieur de Vicomte de Barville,
01:33:25 Monsieur Terry.
01:33:26 They have already made all arrangements
01:33:28 with the seconds of the Lord Mandarstoke.
01:33:30 - Good.
01:33:31 (speaking in foreign language)
01:33:35 (soft music)
01:33:37 - Monsieur.
01:33:51 You have agreed to a duel on (speaking in foreign language)
01:33:55 at 22 paces.
01:33:57 - Yes.
01:33:58 - It is my duty to suggest that there is still time
01:34:00 to settle your difference by an apology.
01:34:05 - Impossible.
01:34:06 - Impossible.
01:34:06 - Then it only remains for me to remind you
01:34:09 that Honor pledged you to conform to the rules.
01:34:12 - Exactly.
01:34:34 - Your coat, sir.
01:34:35 - Oh.
01:34:37 (soft music)
01:34:45 (soft music)
01:34:48 - On my command, marche, you will start to move.
01:35:08 And on my command, tirer, you turn and fire.
01:35:11 Are you ready?
01:35:13 Take your place.
01:35:15 (soft music)
01:35:17 (speaking in foreign language)
01:35:43 (gun firing)
01:35:45 - You are all right, eh?
01:35:54 - Yes, yes, I'm.
01:35:57 I must get back quickly.
01:36:01 - I will go and get your things.
01:36:03 (soft music)
01:36:11, (speaking in foreign language)
01:36:16 (soft music)
01:36:19 (speaking in foreign language)
01:36:25 - The patient has lost a lot of blood.
01:36:43 He is still very weak.
01:36:45 It's even worse than I thought.
01:36:47 What I realized from Miss Hooper's telegram
01:36:49 that my brother was dangerously ill,
01:36:50 but this is all in.
01:36:51 Can I see him at once?
01:36:53 - Please wait here.
01:36:54 - Good morning, Miss.
01:37:04 - Good morning.
01:37:05 - You'll be Miss Larry's sister, I suppose.
01:37:08 I'm Joe Boxer, the Jolly Bar G.
01:37:11 An old friend of Larry's and Fenn's.
01:37:13 - Really?
01:37:16 - Doctor.
01:37:17 (speaking in foreign language)
01:37:22 - Don't leave me.
01:37:31 - Only for a moment, darling.
01:37:35 Miss Somerford, I'm so thankful you've come.
01:37:44 - Doctor Lovendall, I'm Mr. Somerford's sister.
01:37:47 I've come from England to look after him.
01:37:49 - In a few days, madam.
01:37:51 - In a few days?
01:37:52 Surely you don't expect me to leave him to strangers?
01:37:55 - It is hard on you, madam, I know.
01:37:59 But at the present moment, any least excitement.
01:38:03 - I understand Miss Hooper is allowed in the room.
01:38:05 - I rely on her to give him the incentive to live.
01:38:09 - Don't you realize that she and she alone
01:38:11 is responsible for what happened?
01:38:12 - That is not my affair, madam.
01:38:15 - It is mine.
01:38:16 I insist on seeing my brother.
01:38:18 Furthermore, I will not have that woman in the room.
01:38:21 From now on, I shall take her place.
01:38:23 - You do not seem quite to understand, madam.
01:38:26 The day before yesterday, I removed a bullet from his lung.
01:38:29 Any strain, any anxiety may cause a fatal hemorrhage.
01:38:33 I do not hold myself responsible.
01:38:36 - Of course, if you would prefer
01:38:37 to hand the case over to someone else.
01:38:39 - No, Doctor Lovendall, please stay with him.
01:38:42 - But if Miss Somerville wishes to have other advice--
01:38:44 - Only because of me!
01:38:45 But I'll go away. Anything.
01:38:48 Please stay with him.
01:38:50 - Of course I'd rather you stayed, Doctor.
01:38:53 But only on the conditions I've named.
01:38:56 (door closes)
01:39:00 (door closes)
01:39:06 (breathing heavily)
01:39:09 (breathing heavily)
01:39:12 - Where are you?
01:39:20 - Er...it's Kate, dearest.
01:39:23 I've come to look after you.
01:39:26 (breathing heavily)
01:39:29 Darling...try to sleep.
01:39:34 It'll be all right when you wake up.
01:39:37 (breathing heavily)
01:39:40 - She needs me. - Fanny...
01:39:41 - I was good...I was good.
01:39:44 Fanny!
01:39:46 (slap)
01:39:47 (scoffs)
01:39:52 (slapping)
01:39:54 - How dare you, after your promise!
01:39:59 Miss Somerville, please!
01:40:02 He needs me.
01:40:06 Don't you see? He needs me.
01:40:07 - Needs...you?
01:40:10 Miss Hooper, when I first met you,
01:40:12 I appealed to you to let Harry go.
01:40:15 I even believed that in your own way you loved him.
01:40:18 You refused to listen to me.
01:40:20 Everything I foresaw has come true, and now this...
01:40:24 And you say he needs you.
01:40:28 - But he does!
01:40:29 He needs a woman who believes in him,
01:40:31 who can give him affection, tenderness, understanding.
01:40:34 - And death?
01:40:36 - No, I can give him life.
01:40:39 You heard what Dr. Leurntal said.
01:40:41 I can help Harry to live.
01:40:43 - A woman like you?
01:40:45 - Not a woman like me.
01:40:47 Me.
01:40:48 Miss Somerville, even if I were everything you thought,
01:40:51 does it matter?
01:40:53 Does anything matter now except that I can help Harry to live?
01:40:57 - I'd rather he died,
01:41:00 than go back to the kind of life he was living with you.
01:41:05 - Why are you looking at me like that?
01:41:08 - I'm just seeing you for the first time.
01:41:11 Seeing through you.
01:41:13 You're jealous of me because no man will ever need you
01:41:15 as Harry needs me.
01:41:17 Till now I've refused to marry him because of you
01:41:20 and what you stood for.
01:41:22 But you don't stand for anything at all.
01:41:25 You don't want Harry to have a wife and a home and children,
01:41:28 except on your terms.
01:41:30 His happiness doesn't count.
01:41:32 You don't even care if he dies, so long as he dies on your terms.
01:41:36 But he isn't going to die.
01:41:38 He's going to live.
01:41:40 He's going to have a wife and home and children.
01:41:43 Yes...
01:41:45 I can give him life.
01:41:47 It's you who can only give him death.
01:41:49 And you know it!
01:41:51 - Go to him, mon enfant.
01:42:00 Only you can help him now.
01:42:02 - Harry...
01:42:09 It's Danny!
01:42:10 I'm with you.
01:42:12 I'm never going to leave you again.
01:42:15 You're going to get well.
01:42:17 You're going to live.
01:42:20 Harry, do you hear?
01:42:22 You're going to live!
01:42:24 Harry...
01:42:27 We're going to be married.
01:42:29 We're going to have a home and children.
01:42:32 You're going to get well.
01:42:36 You're going to live.
01:42:38 (dramatic music)
01:42:41 (dramatic music)
01:42:45 You're going to get well.
01:42:47 You're going to live.
01:42:49 (dramatic music)
01:42:52 (dramatic music)
01:42:55 (dramatic music)
01:42:58 (dramatic music)
01:43:01 (dramatic music)
01:43:04 you
