Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I'm not employing a handsome swine, she wants it.
00:00:26Right, my son, get ready, get steady, go!
00:00:39Tell her to get the tea out!
00:00:42Call yourself an athlete?
00:00:43You run like a girl!
00:00:44Just put me to work, Mrs. Ryan.
00:00:45Oh, I could give you a dozen jobs, but you have to meet Mr. Jarvis first.
00:00:46Esther, er, Darby room.
00:00:51Esther?
00:00:54Are you going to drench yourself in rose water?
00:00:59No, Mrs. Ryan, she's got the stench.
00:01:10Mr. Jarvis should be back sometime tonight.
00:01:14Go and wash it off.
00:01:16And take him with you.
00:01:18Give him something to eat.
00:01:19Come on, Jarvis.
00:01:35Die!
00:01:36Die!
00:01:37We're back!
00:01:38The family's behind us!
00:01:39We're back!
00:01:40We're back.
00:01:41The family's just behind us.
00:01:42We're back.
00:01:43It couldn't be, it's too early.
00:01:44It's still early.
00:01:45It's still early.
00:01:46Oh no!
00:01:47It's all right.
00:01:48It's all right.
00:01:49It's all right.
00:01:50It's all right.
00:01:51We didn't know which way to go.
00:01:52It's all right.
00:01:53I don't believe you.
00:01:54It's all right.
00:01:55I know.
00:01:56Maybe we should have let the doctor before.
00:02:05It couldn't be. It's too early.
00:02:08Oh, God. Polly, quick, go and make up the beds.
00:02:12Stop. Susan, can you, um, stop the fires? Go on, stop.
00:02:16Lizzie, Lizzie, will you come and help me? Go on.
00:02:28Move, big lumps. Go on.
00:02:32Who are you?
00:02:34Who the hell are you?
00:02:45Whoa.
00:02:48Will! Look at you.
00:02:51About bloody time.
00:02:53Get off me, Robert. Show some sense.
00:02:55Peter Jarvis is just behind us, and the family's not far behind him.
00:02:59Robert, get the trunks pulled off.
00:03:03Don't stand there dithering.
00:03:05What did you get me? Do I smell nice?
00:03:07All the luggage should be unloaded and out of the way by the time the Earl gets here.
00:03:11All they've got in Rome is tat and sweaty sausages.
00:03:14Christ, where is everybody?
00:03:16What shall I do?
00:03:18Get out of the way from the start, Susan.
00:03:33Look, let's walk.
00:03:36Frank.
00:03:39Mr Jarvis.
00:03:42His Lordship will have left Southampton just two hours behind us.
00:03:45I'm sure we'll have everything in order for him.
00:03:47Did no-one think to regulate the clocks in the last three months?
00:03:54Mr Keneally, your seat of the luggage.
00:03:56If you please, the family's to be unloaded.
00:03:59Mr Keneally?
00:04:02Keneally!
00:04:04He went in, Mr Jarvis.
00:04:10Oops.
00:04:13Well, do I smell nice?
00:04:15Come on, lads, let's get these difficult buggers shifted.
00:04:21Here you are, ladies. Feast your eyes on that.
00:04:30I thought you'd be waiting.
00:04:32There was no-one to help me down the stairs with Harry.
00:04:34Keneally!
00:04:36How are you?
00:04:37Go up and get your things. I'm taking you home.
00:04:39What?
00:04:40We're going back to Ireland. My father sent for me.
00:04:42There's a yard in chaos out there.
00:04:44You can chase skirt in your own time.
00:04:46Am I bright to be, Mr Jarvis?
00:04:48Not in the next few hours, I trust.
00:04:50Come on, man, work to do.
00:04:52I'll see you later.
00:04:54I'll see you later.
00:04:56Not in the next few hours, I trust. Come on, man, work to do.
00:04:59Best go and do it then.
00:05:06What did you say?
00:05:07I only came back for you.
00:05:09When where do we get there?
00:05:13Have you lost your senses?
00:05:14It's not slavery, mate.
00:05:16I'm not in bloody chains.
00:05:18Go on, put your things together.
00:05:20You can't just decide to...
00:05:22Off and running.
00:05:25Free.
00:05:27I mean it, love.
00:05:34Think very carefully, miss.
00:05:36You'll get no character.
00:05:38Frank.
00:05:39Are you going with this man?
00:05:47Of course you're not.
00:05:48Good girl.
00:05:50Get back to your work, then.
00:05:53As for you, you pick up your trappings and go.
00:05:56In my arm time.
00:06:02See you in a bit, Grace.
00:06:06You won't.
00:06:08Who the hell are you?
00:06:10George Cosmo, sir. New footman.
00:06:12You think so, do you?
00:06:16You will take a walk to the village.
00:06:19You will adjust this to the time on the church clock
00:06:22by pulling out the winder thus and adjusting the hands thus.
00:06:25You will then return, hot foot.
00:06:28But first, I'm going to have you in livery.
00:06:34As for you...
00:06:36Save it for the new lads. It's too wet behind the ears.
00:06:39I go when I'm good and ready.
00:06:44As from this moment,
00:06:47we do not have an under-butler.
00:06:51Mr Keneally has been disgraced,
00:06:54and none of you...
00:06:57None of you will speak to him.
00:07:00Understand?
00:07:09They're a slaggy match in bloody Venice.
00:07:11They never.
00:07:12You do as you're bloody well told, Keneally,
00:07:14and they come straight back at him.
00:07:16You happen to think so, do you?
00:07:18I thought they sorted it all out.
00:07:20What about Grace May?
00:07:21Maybe she'll sod off with him.
00:07:23So what do you reckon?
00:07:25Fancy a shag with a new under-butler, eh?
00:07:28Come on, let's get these things shifted.
00:07:30It's starting to take it down. Come on, quickly!
00:07:39What's wrong with him?
00:07:41It's dinner time.
00:07:43Got any time to eat or something?
00:07:45What a good idea. Why didn't I think of that?
00:07:48Cook's got a bad one.
00:07:50Anyhow, it's not a cook's job.
00:07:52He'll have to ask Prince Albert.
00:07:55If you mean me, Miss Fat Arse,
00:07:58the title is chef.
00:08:00Sorry, chef.
00:08:02The cook prepares slop for pigs like you.
00:08:05But Lord Harry's a snurge is born,
00:08:07and his meals are prepared by me,
00:08:10which takes time and thought.
00:08:14You!
00:08:15Out of that bench and leave my oven.
00:08:18You!
00:08:19Hang this up.
00:08:21Because God is in his oven,
00:08:24and Felix Krauss is back in his kitchen!
00:08:32Bread.
00:08:36Milk.
00:08:37And...
00:08:41Twisted sugar.
00:08:44It's for the boy.
00:08:46Oi, Grace!
00:08:48Sorry to hear your troubles.
00:08:50It's a bugger that, your fella going loony.
00:08:52I'll pack your bag, shall I? Time we got shot of you.
00:08:55She's not going.
00:08:56Yeah, she is.
00:08:57Made for each other, her and mad Frank.
00:09:00Who said I'm not?
00:09:02Well, you're not, mate.
00:09:03Maybe he wants to tag along.
00:09:04Three in a bed. Lovely.
00:09:08She's a charmer.
00:09:10Thanks for Harry's tea.
00:09:13But she's right, though.
00:09:14That Frank's a wild man.
00:09:16You don't want to spend the rest of your life
00:09:17tied to someone like that.
00:09:19Come on, Harry.
00:09:21You mind your business and I'll mind mine.
00:09:26Don't need rescuing.
00:09:29How about we all need rescuing sometimes.
00:09:31George Cosmo.
00:09:32As in Cosmos.
00:09:34One of the stars.
00:09:36Your servant.
00:09:41Mr. Jarvis?
00:09:42Susan's bringing us tea and cake.
00:09:44A welcome home treat.
00:09:46Appreciate it.
00:09:50Now,
00:09:53Frank's been eating.
00:09:55He's hopped down the drive.
00:09:59He's just walked out on us.
00:10:01He's got a gun.
00:10:03He's got a gun.
00:10:05He's got a gun.
00:10:07He's got a gun.
00:10:09He's got...
00:10:11He's got a gun pointed at us.
00:10:13He never did.
00:10:16Good riddance.
00:10:17Nothing but insolence and temper since the day we left.
00:10:20His father wants him to take over the Tannery.
00:10:23He's welcome to it.
00:10:24A Tannery?
00:10:27Poor Grace.
00:10:28A lifetime of liming, pelts,
00:10:30and the stench of death.
00:10:31She won't give up Taplos for that.
00:10:33Ah, but for love.
00:10:34But she's not going with him.
00:10:36She has more sense.
00:10:38Ah, it's a very good recommendation
00:10:42for a very good house.
00:10:44It's fit, and strong, and very courteous.
00:10:53So this is from the housekeeper?
00:10:57I did come through.
00:11:02Thank you, Susan.
00:11:05She did send a letter by the time.
00:11:07I don't care if she sent a proposal of marriage
00:11:09written in her own blood.
00:11:11Since when did any housekeeper have responsibility
00:11:13for male members of staff?
00:11:18I know you women and young men.
00:11:22They wrap you around their little fingers.
00:11:26We are not a refuge for good-looking layabouts.
00:11:37God gave us ears to save our feet.
00:11:47Oi!
00:11:48I've not missed them, have I?
00:11:50Got back about an hour ago.
00:11:52How come no one told me?
00:11:53Ah, they're making time from Southampton.
00:11:55It has me up for another bollocking.
00:11:57Why? What's the panic?
00:11:58I'm only supposed to be stood here
00:11:59like bloody little Bo Peep for every bloody carriage
00:12:02that passes, isn't I?
00:12:03The master's idea of a pastoral idol, isn't it?
00:12:07Wanker.
00:12:08Oh.
00:12:08Oi, Shepherd.
00:12:11The Earl's not back yet.
00:12:13Left Southampton two hours after the household.
00:12:16Be back soon, no?
00:12:18Just thought you'd like to know.
00:12:34William Forrest.
00:12:37George Codman.
00:12:38First footman with great expectations of promotion.
00:12:41Second footman with a bit of luck and a fair wind.
00:12:43Well, so shorthanded they just count your legs.
00:12:45If there's more than one, you'll do.
00:12:46Yeah. Why the statues?
00:12:47Horrible great things.
00:12:49Uppercrown says we're carting them to proof.
00:12:51New boy!
00:12:53My pantry.
00:12:53Bring your character.
00:12:55Mrs. Ryan has it, sir.
00:12:56A character, lad.
00:12:58Not some scrawled note from a bloody female.
00:13:01No, don't worry about it.
00:13:02Ritual humiliation.
00:13:04We've all been there.
00:13:04You going into that or what?
00:13:12Come on, then.
00:13:13Let's get these boogers moved.
00:13:15Quite the blue-eyed boy, according to your character.
00:13:19Any special talents?
00:13:21Shooting?
00:13:22Running?
00:13:23The Earl likes his athletes.
00:13:26Not really, sir.
00:13:28You're too modest.
00:13:30Judging by your speed to the church and back,
00:13:33you'll give our Frederick something to worry about?
00:13:36A bit more bookish than athletic.
00:13:40I'm learning French, Mr. Jarvis, in case the family visit Paris.
00:13:43Are you any good?
00:13:45En Francais, si vous plait, monsieur.
00:13:49Try, in case the family visits Paris.
00:13:52I'm French.
00:13:54Try, in case the family visits Paris.
00:14:00Si.
00:14:03La famille...
00:14:08...visit Paris.
00:14:10Paris.
00:14:11Paris.
00:14:13Oh, well.
00:14:15Never mind.
00:14:16I've only just started, Mr. Jarvis.
00:14:18I am hard-working and ambitious.
00:14:22I have no doubt of the latter.
00:14:25As to the former, I'll study in his under-butler.
00:14:28When will I learn?
00:14:30Let's just wait for your character.
00:14:33Shall we?
00:14:35A woman's opinion.
00:14:40I prefer something a little less febrile and heartfelt,
00:14:44like the considered opinion of your butler.
00:14:47I've written to Mr. Savage, and he's prompt with his replies.
00:14:51Here she is.
00:14:53You may go.
00:14:55Sir.
00:14:56Promises are ironed.
00:14:58Everyone in their places in five minutes.
00:15:01Sir.
00:15:08Come on!
00:15:09Come on!
00:15:10Come on!
00:15:11Come on!
00:15:12Come on!
00:15:13Come on!
00:15:14Come on!
00:15:15Come on!
00:15:16Come on!
00:15:17Come on!
00:15:18Come on!
00:15:19Come on!
00:15:21Come on!
00:15:22Come on!
00:15:31May your bollocks blacken and drop off my lord.
00:15:38I've lost a shoulder bundle.
00:15:39There is where I can find any damn thing.
00:15:45You never heard of a iron?
00:15:47You never heard of a smack on the face?
00:15:49Here, what's your name?
00:15:50Knockout.
00:15:51I've just got to write a letter to my old mum
00:15:52before I miss the post.
00:15:55Shut up and move your arses.
00:15:58Have you got any paper?
00:16:00What do you want paper for?
00:16:02Two minutes, come along.
00:16:03Mr. Jarvis is waiting with his watch in his hand.
00:16:19Johnny Boots, since when were you a stable lad?
00:16:34Over with the house servants, if you please.
00:16:44His lordship paid for a matching pair and we have an odd sock.
00:16:57Housemaids are a credit to you, Mrs. Ryan, as ever.
00:17:03And your ladies' maids, the footmen, the grooms.
00:17:11What we'll have to do.
00:17:18Cornelia, you have the cheek of the devil.
00:17:28Get your filthy feet off that carpet.
00:17:34Grace.
00:17:35Grace!
00:17:36Grace, may I?
00:17:45You will take your leave this minute, Mr. Cornelia.
00:17:47Grace, come down.
00:17:48William, see him off.
00:17:49Touch me for us and I'll have you.
00:17:52Do as you're told.
00:17:54Will you come down to me?
00:18:14William, get him out of here.
00:18:16Round the back, double quick.
00:18:18Get shot of him once and for all.
00:18:20Look at you!
00:18:23Look at what you've done to me, you lackey's all!
00:18:32Guards, come in!
00:18:33Mr. Cornelia!
00:18:37Get back to your place, Forrest.
00:18:38You're useless!
00:18:39Oh, for God's sake.
00:18:40Grace.
00:18:41Leave me alone.
00:18:42I just want to know, who brings the post here?
00:18:57Post?
00:18:58Any bloody post, Grace.
00:18:59Piss off and leave me alone.
00:21:30He was, he was standing there with his pants around his shanks, shaking hands with a bleeding
00:21:59bishop.
00:22:00All right, ladies.
00:22:02I'd have laughed if I'd seen you.
00:22:03What were you doing in his room?
00:22:04Well, I had a cold fall, so I went in to stop the rug burning.
00:22:09You don't need to hide, then, had you?
00:22:11You cock up.
00:22:12I get a bollocking.
00:22:13I take bollockings for no one.
00:22:14Well, there was me thinking you were just a first footman, not the Prince Regent.
00:22:18And you're no one, son.
00:22:20We've lost the bloody trunk.
00:22:21It's got my best toes in it.
00:22:22Oh, no, the brandy.
00:22:27You are joking.
00:22:28It's got my best in those shoes and all the brandy.
00:22:29No, no.
00:22:30It's in the trunk with the trees, the liquor.
00:22:31Oh, yeah, you can bring back a load of booze, but you can't manage anything for me.
00:22:32Where's my best day dress?
00:22:33Well, it's in the same trunk.
00:22:34I knew it.
00:22:35He only wants them damn ugly things up on the roof.
00:22:36Oh, bloody brandy.
00:22:37Give him a slap, for God's sake, Hester.
00:22:38The statues will.
00:22:39On the roof.
00:22:40Now.
00:22:41Fred?
00:22:42Don't ask me.
00:22:43Joseph.
00:22:44Don't ask me.
00:22:45Joseph.
00:22:46Don't ask me.
00:22:47Don't ask me.
00:22:48Don't ask me.
00:22:49Don't ask me.
00:22:50Don't ask me.
00:22:51Don't ask me.
00:22:52Don't ask me.
00:22:53Don't ask me.
00:22:59Sir?
00:23:06New boy.
00:23:07You're not getting out of this.
00:23:09Would have missed it for the world.
00:23:15Come on, Will.
00:23:16Lift it higher.
00:23:17She won't go up any further.
00:23:19I've got a right knife fell here.
00:23:20Let's take it up the main staircase, then.
00:23:22What?
00:23:23There was nothing else for it.
00:23:26Right, you two.
00:23:27Take your boots off.
00:23:30Push me, fish.
00:23:36Just better looking enough, girl.
00:23:37You ready, mate?
00:23:38Just about the same weight.
00:23:40Just had a girl on top, Fred.
00:23:42You ready?
00:23:43Always ready, me.
00:23:45Just lower it down.
00:23:46Let her slip.
00:23:47I like it if she slips.
00:23:49Here she comes, the slut.
00:23:51Get your hands off me.
00:23:52I'd rather have Lady Caroline.
00:23:54Shh, boys.
00:23:55Don't talk to the devil.
00:23:56Don't talk to the devil.
00:24:23You're a gigantic bitch.
00:24:26Come on, William.
00:24:27I've got a job to do.
00:24:28One more for the Pope.
00:24:30Damage her.
00:24:31You'd do well to follow good advice, Mr. Forrest.
00:24:34You get her onto her fat arse, get her into the corridor,
00:24:37and leave her for the night.
00:24:38We have dinner to serve.
00:24:40In the morning, William,
00:24:43I want her and her old man on the roof by midday tomorrow
00:24:46and no more silly pantomimes.
00:24:51Why have you got one tit open to the air?
00:24:54Oh, same reason you're going meat and two veg
00:24:57waving in the wind, husband.
00:24:59What do you think of anything else?
00:25:00She only wants me for my salami.
00:25:03Oh, husband, husband, all these promises.
00:25:07I thought so.
00:25:09Half past ten and it's bedlam.
00:25:11This is not Italy.
00:25:13I will not tolerate sloppy foreign ways in my household.
00:25:16Frederick, down.
00:25:22And as for you, Mr. Forrest,
00:25:23you've precious little to strut about.
00:25:27My back passage is still obstructed by some half-naked heathen.
00:25:46Well, I don't know if she's boasting or complaining, if you ask me.
00:25:49Let's all scream a bit more and bring her back, shall we?
00:25:51Are you still here?
00:25:53I thought Owen Frank was true love.
00:25:54Don't start, Esther.
00:25:56Now, you haven't got a man of your own, love.
00:25:58You keep your eyes tight shut when you walk past mine.
00:26:01It's always a bit tricky with your William.
00:26:03You never know where he'll grab you next.
00:26:05You wish.
00:26:07No, love, I really don't.
00:26:09If I wanted to, I could have a man ten times his worth
00:26:12and a night still.
00:26:15Charming.
00:26:16And for your information, the one with the bow and arrow is Artemis.
00:26:19So?
00:26:21She doesn't have tits.
00:26:22She has a breast.
00:26:23Just the one?
00:26:26Actaeon saw her naked,
00:26:28so she changed him into a deer and then she shot him.
00:26:33She's the goddess of hunters.
00:26:36She's not a tart.
00:26:38You're confusing her with Esther.
00:26:46Come on.
00:27:16Come on.
00:27:47Is that it, then?
00:27:49You should be so glad to have that pillow.
00:27:53My guts still aren't right.
00:27:55He's puked in every sea in Europe.
00:28:03Well, thanks.
00:28:05God, I've been looking forward to this for weeks.
00:28:08Stuff it, then.
00:28:10Well?
00:28:14Charlotte brought it back for me.
00:28:17I'll take you there one day, if you're a good girl.
00:28:20You won't even have to take a boat, will you?
00:28:23Just one.
00:28:25I'll be back in a week.
00:28:27I'll be back in a week.
00:28:29I'll be back in a week.
00:28:31I'll be back in a week.
00:28:33I'll be back in a week.
00:28:35I'll be back in a week.
00:28:37I'll be back in a week.
00:28:39I'll walk across the seven seas.
00:28:47Wasting your time with her.
00:28:49Frank and Annie don't give up easy.
00:28:51And does George Cosmay?
00:28:53She'll go after him.
00:28:55She hasn't yet.
00:28:57Either way,
00:29:00she's too good for you.
00:29:03The way I see it, George,
00:29:06the underbutler, gets first pick.
00:29:09Not my meal, am I not?
00:29:13The under-butler, not some spotty foreman.
00:29:16You under-butler, that's a laugh, isn't it?
00:29:19Do you hear that, cocky sod?
00:29:39Aren't you supposed to be upstairs?
00:30:09You shouldn't do that.
00:30:13Yeah, you shouldn't be in the scullery.
00:30:18Dear Mr Jarvis, so why are you writing to him?
00:30:22I'm not.
00:30:23Yes, you are.
00:30:24I'm not, just...
00:30:26Sod you, Grace.
00:30:30Are you faking a character?
00:30:32Shh.
00:30:36Look, I'm not a villain.
00:30:38I'm not.
00:30:39I just need this job.
00:30:41I've dreamed of a place like this since I was...
00:30:43You've never been a footman before, have you?
00:30:45I know what to do, Grace.
00:30:46I've seen enough.
00:30:49Mr Savage, the butler, was a bastard.
00:30:52Hated me.
00:30:53I kept putting in for footman, but you...
00:30:55I've heard him talking about Mr Savage.
00:30:57Worked together years ago.
00:30:59What if he knows he's writing?
00:31:03If he does, I'm finished with it.
00:31:05It's worth a go, isn't it?
00:31:08I suppose so.
00:31:12See you in the morning.
00:31:23His name's not Jarvis.
00:31:25It's just what the master calls all his butlers.
00:31:28His given name's Walter Corey.
00:31:30C-O-R-R-Y.
00:31:59Italian brandy.
00:32:02I wouldn't cook with it.
00:32:05They thought they could smuggle this in behind my back.
00:32:08When you're that age, Felix, you think everyone's stupid.
00:32:11That's true.
00:32:18I will remind you men that I do not accept incomplete livery.
00:32:22You're a disgrace.
00:32:23The lost trunk, Mr Jarvis.
00:32:25My heart bleeds.
00:32:28Mrs Ryan's girls put you all to shame.
00:32:34I will also remind you that servants are not permitted
00:32:36to keep spirits anywhere on the estate.
00:32:39Is that clear?
00:32:42Did any of you bring whiskey?
00:32:44Brandy?
00:32:45Any other spirit back from Rome?
00:32:49Hmm?
00:32:51Well?
00:32:56What is it, Mr Mackey?
00:32:58The undertaker, sir.
00:32:59I'll be there.
00:33:05In the absence of Frank Keneally,
00:33:09William, you will act as under butler.
00:33:17For now.
00:33:20You are dismissed.
00:33:21You will have statues littering every hallway and entry.
00:33:35Well done, Will.
00:33:36I knew you'd get it.
00:33:37So did I.
00:33:38About bloody time, eh?
00:33:39I said now.
00:33:41Just one of these little games.
00:33:42I've got the job.
00:33:44Hear that, Grace?
00:33:45I'm the under butler's sweetheart.
00:33:47That's you fulfilled a lifetime ambition.
00:33:49Nearly went to the nearly under butler.
00:33:51You'll know when you look me!
00:33:52Girls!
00:33:53Girls!
00:33:54Girls!
00:33:55Girls!
00:33:56Girls!
00:33:57Some bloody statues.
00:33:58Where's Cosmo got to?
00:34:06He's not in the truffle then, sir.
00:34:08Truffled a few buckets of ice on top of him.
00:34:11Earl should have had him quietly done away with years ago.
00:34:13There's not a tooth in his head.
00:34:16Usual Sturges, born, headstone.
00:34:20Full embalming, all the usual.
00:34:24He was a good dog in his day.
00:34:26At least we don't have to stuff him and stick him on the roof.
00:34:31Any post yet?
00:34:32Should be hearing from your butler today.
00:34:42You only had to ask.
00:34:50They'd give me a hard time, wouldn't they?
00:34:51Right, well, the woke up mothers, mate.
00:34:55Not that mine, mate.
00:34:56She'd write every bloody day if she could afford to.
00:35:00I'm going to see Jarvis now.
00:35:01You want me to take him up?
00:35:02No.
00:35:03There's nothing for him.
00:35:04It's all for Mrs. Ryan, you idiot.
00:35:14Didn't even say goodbye.
00:35:16He didn't want you to say anything.
00:35:18Just pick up your bags and run after him like a little child.
00:35:22You were wise and brave not to give in to him.
00:35:27I know it hurts.
00:35:30But it'll pass.
00:35:32In a couple of years, he'll just be a distant memory.
00:35:35Mm-hmm.
00:35:37Mrs. Ryan.
00:35:44I had a friend once engaged to be married.
00:35:49On the very brink.
00:35:51And then for all sorts of reasons, she couldn't go through with it.
00:35:54Looked at him and realized that she didn't trust him,
00:35:57that he wasn't...
00:36:03She could have married him easily.
00:36:07But her head drained.
00:36:09And now, 12 years on, she's a senior position
00:36:12and horizons she'd never dreamed of.
00:36:16Well, she hears of him from time to time
00:36:19and he's nothing and no one.
00:36:23She doesn't have any regrets.
00:36:26Or many regrets.
00:36:30Yes?
00:36:33Mrs. Ryan.
00:36:35Right, go on.
00:36:37Busy yourself with your duties.
00:36:39And turn a deaf eye to any doubts.
00:36:41Do you... A blind ear, do you...
00:36:43Oh, go on.
00:36:48It's a perfect moment.
00:36:50It's not enough.
00:36:52You let go.
00:36:54I've done it now.
00:37:09It's not a common circus and no one is dead.
00:37:14Return to your duties.
00:37:17Return to your duties.
00:37:21Mrs. Ryan.
00:37:27The gods are falling.
00:37:29As false gods will.
00:37:31When you hear me talking, get on out of here.
00:37:34Yeah?
00:37:47Mr. Jarvis, sir.
00:37:51Your doing, is it?
00:37:54Yes, sir.
00:37:56All on your own?
00:37:58Yes, sir.
00:38:00An atlas in your service, Mr. Jarvis.
00:38:03Able to move whole worlds on his own.
00:38:06I rigged up a pulley system, but it seems the bannisters couldn't take the strain.
00:38:10Are you a total bloody idiot?
00:38:12Mrs. Ryan was worrying.
00:38:14Blocking the stairs.
00:38:16You said by noon, it's well past that.
00:38:20William's given up, so I thought I'd give it a try.
00:38:23Typical William.
00:38:25We're lucky it didn't bring the whole staircase down, was it?
00:38:28It's cool, it's cool, it's cool.
00:38:30At least one Italian won't be fathering any more bambinos.
00:38:37Bloody thing fell off in Rome.
00:38:39Naples and then Calais.
00:38:42Kept on sticking it back, but every time.
00:39:07Going up to the house?
00:39:09Later, to have a beer with the lads.
00:39:12Tell Grace from me I'm not leaving without her.
00:39:14Where are you going?
00:39:16Just tell her I'm going nowhere until she's with me.
00:39:18Tell her the usual time, the usual place.
00:39:30There you are, you sneaky swine.
00:39:32I wanted to help her, but that nasty William, he couldn't be arsed.
00:39:36The point is, Will, you copped her.
00:39:38And I got us out of it.
00:39:41You've wrecked that chair.
00:39:43What is it?
00:39:44A machine for making underbucklers,
00:39:46so you can stop creeping around Jarvis.
00:39:49I must have joined her as well, eh?
00:39:51I've put my arse up in this hole for seven years,
00:39:54waiting for bloody Frank to move on.
00:39:56And now he has.
00:39:58And no-one's going to bolt it up for me.
00:40:07LAUGHTER
00:40:13Come on, lads.
00:40:16Who's she dragged in now?
00:40:18God knows. She only goes to medical men and liquors.
00:40:21Yeah.
00:40:22Oi, Susan, who's the mophead?
00:40:25He's a doctor.
00:40:27Aren't you?
00:40:28I'm not fully a doctor.
00:40:30No, it's cos Dad's.
00:40:32Bloody hell.
00:40:33Here's Dad Blow from Lidderminton Powell.
00:40:36He's one of the embalmer.
00:40:38The embalmer? Susan!
00:40:40He's a medical man.
00:40:42He is.
00:40:43Oh, York.
00:40:44You'll not let him touch your tits, have you?
00:40:47Why don't you all just shut up?
00:40:49Oh, think where them bony hands have been.
00:40:51Perking up a dog's arse.
00:40:53It's his silver wing.
00:40:55Take it for a snog in the graveyard, love.
00:40:57They'll have a good stuff for bloody hell.
00:41:00It's Grace.
00:41:02Back to the dig.
00:41:03You be the gentleman.
00:41:04And I'll be the virgin.
00:41:05Right, lads.
00:41:06Who wants an extra jug of beer?
00:41:08Come on, Randy.
00:41:09Work to be done.
00:41:11Fred, put her down.
00:41:23Nice and easy. Very nice and quiet.
00:41:26Oh, sorry, George.
00:41:28That's it. Very nice.
00:41:29Just keep it moving.
00:41:30Mind that lamp, Josh.
00:41:32Good work, Mr Forrest.
00:41:39You all right, Josh?
00:41:43That I gaze on so fondly today.
00:41:49Grace.
00:41:51It's just such a mess.
00:41:54Would you like me to help, Mrs Rye?
00:41:57No.
00:41:58You go on out and enjoy yourself with your friends.
00:42:00I'm nearly finished.
00:42:10Take no notice.
00:42:11I'm just ignorant.
00:42:13It's a very skilled job, I know that.
00:42:15You've got to be...
00:42:17sensitive and...
00:42:19artistic.
00:42:22Mmm.
00:42:23Mmm.
00:42:24Pops on my pillow
00:42:27An oar in the night
00:42:31My oar labours empty
00:42:34Earth dyes pepper white
00:42:38Trembles me weary knee
00:42:41My child's nearly died
00:42:44Then comes the unbuttoned foot
00:42:47That's my wife they've got nearby
00:42:51La la la, la la la
00:42:56This is the most precious one of all.
00:43:00A replica from the basilica of the Church of St Simon.
00:43:05I don't want you breathing beer all over it.
00:43:09The finger of St Paul.
00:43:12The what?
00:43:13The holding finger of the sainted bull.
00:43:17And how much do they please you for that?
00:43:19Contribution to church violence?
00:43:21Contribution to a robbing a poor bastard.
00:43:24Do saints have no knuckles, then?
00:43:27So are you.
00:43:28Come in, though.
00:43:29That's about as holy as your family can get.
00:43:31Bloody ironic.
00:43:34Never mind.
00:43:35Just do a box of Peter's Bailey, that'll do.
00:43:39Where's my dancing partner?
00:43:50Oh.
00:43:56Frank?
00:44:15I was so worried.
00:44:18Thor might never see you again.
00:44:21We ain't even spoken, not properly kissed.
00:44:24Why didn't you come with me?
00:44:27Don't be so cold, Frank.
00:44:29Please.
00:44:30I've waited months for that.
00:45:00Why didn't you come with me?
00:45:02Never met your family.
00:45:04Don't know anything about Ireland.
00:45:06Don't know anything about tanning halls.
00:45:08You know everything about me.
00:45:10We can be on a boat this time tomorrow.
00:45:12You were going to be a butler.
00:45:13I was going to be a lady's maid.
00:45:14We were going to travel the world.
00:45:15I've done that.
00:45:17But I haven't.
00:45:20We've courted near on two years now.
00:45:23I kept myself true to you.
00:45:24I've done everything you've wanted of me.
00:45:26I know.
00:45:27I've told my father I'm bringing back a wife.
00:45:30I've not had the chance to talk about or tell you how I felt.
00:45:33My mistake then.
00:45:38I thought you loved me.
00:45:43I do.
00:45:44You love this place more.
00:45:46You love the idiot more.
00:45:50I don't know your parents.
00:45:52Tannery, all I know is about that.
00:45:54That smell, it's all anybody knows, I know.
00:45:58But you get used to it.
00:46:00You don't smell it anymore.
00:46:03You always said it was hell.
00:46:05But now I'll be the boss.
00:46:09The master.
00:46:13And you'll be my missus.
00:46:18I've come halfway across England for you.
00:46:22I stood there in front of everyone and begged you.
00:46:26I won't be made a fool of.
00:46:29Who, me?
00:46:31Two years courting a bloody virgin.
00:46:33To be humiliated in front of those gay Benedicts.
00:46:38Stop it!
00:46:41Stop it!
00:46:44No!
00:46:46Get off me!
00:46:48No!
00:46:51Stop it!
00:46:53Keneally!
00:46:57Bugger off, boy.
00:46:59Just leave her alone.
00:47:00Toddle back to your new little friends.
00:47:01This has nothing to do with you.
00:47:03I just have to shout, mate.
00:47:04You'll be coughing up blood for us mammies, boy.
00:47:11You have to count to three to get back to your kennel.
00:47:15One.
00:47:18Two.
00:47:27Three years in the infantry, Sam,
00:47:28and you learn how to hurt people real bad.
00:47:31Get up.
00:47:37You're never coming back, Paddy.
00:47:39Say it.
00:47:40You're never coming back.
00:47:50Don't worry.
00:47:53I'll be back.
00:48:11I know.
00:48:13You don't need rescuing.
00:48:29You kenny-witty boy,
00:48:30when he comes so back to you,
00:48:32kenny-witty boy,
00:48:33in the top of the back to you,
00:48:34kenny-witty boy,
00:48:35so far, far away in the butler's pantry in the morning.
00:48:42I know you like that face.
00:48:44You ain't going to get the job.
00:48:53Morning, beautiful.
00:48:58I'll try again.
00:49:00Good morning, Miss May.
00:49:03Mr. Joe, we should get your character this morning,
00:49:05shouldn't we?
00:49:07Say goodbye now.
00:49:08Save us the trouble later.
00:49:11I'm not done just yet.
00:49:14I wish you'd stop thanking me.
00:49:21It was fair, fat and beautiful,
00:49:22with legs all like trees,
00:49:25all like pudding bowls hung down to its lid.
00:49:45Morning.
00:49:48Morning.
00:49:50Morning, my friend.
00:49:51That's the best ball job, isn't it?
00:49:54Oi, Posty!
00:49:55Save your legs!
00:49:57Oi!
00:50:01Oi, Posty!
00:50:04Oi, Post!
00:50:05Oi!
00:50:22Why aren't you upstairs?
00:50:23Better things to do, mate.
00:50:24Will you tell me where you're going first?
00:50:26Don't make me hurt you, Will.
00:50:27Don't you make me laugh!
00:50:29George!
00:50:33Christ!
00:50:43I'm sweating suffering, Christ.
00:50:54God help me now, or I'll never sin again.
00:51:04Your character, I believe.
00:51:09I need a sharp knife for the seal.
00:51:11Give me one knife.
00:51:41You haven't wasted the summer.
00:52:08We've hung new curtains in all the morning rooms.
00:52:11And the morning room has been painted and papered.
00:52:13I think everything is in the best of order.
00:52:17I would expect no less.
00:52:24I've unpacked my boxes.
00:52:28For you.
00:52:34I thought we might...
00:52:39There will be 18 for the next month, next Monday.
00:52:43The usual 120 for breakfast, luncheon, stirrup cup.
00:52:58The Coliseum.
00:53:02The Coliseum.
00:53:03By a local artist.
00:53:10Let's see to the rabble.
00:53:22Mr Jarvis, do you want me in Frank's old livery, sir?
00:53:25You?
00:53:26I just thought we were the house guests
00:53:29Ah, yes.
00:53:31I thought if it was going to fit anyone, it would probably be snuggest on Mr Cosmo.
00:53:40I guess you must have heard from my dear old friend, Mr Savage.
00:53:43Always said I was cut out for under butler.
00:53:46See you later.
00:53:47I'm past the bill.
00:54:01She gets worse.
00:54:05Why am I here?
00:54:08Oh, my God.
00:54:09Oh, my God.
00:54:10What is it, woman?
00:54:11It's Emma's bloody tongue, you doghouse.
00:54:13It's a miracle.
00:54:14Oh, my God.
00:54:15Somebody shut her up.
00:54:17Charlotte, stop it.
00:54:18What is it?
00:54:19It's the willy.
00:54:22Poppy.
00:54:24She should know.
00:54:27It wasn't his finger.
00:54:28It wasn't his finger.
00:54:29What's she on about?
00:54:31It's that Peter's pinky.
00:54:32St Paul's, this.
00:54:34And it wasn't, was it?
00:54:37It's a different colour than twice his foot.
00:54:40It's come to life.
00:54:42It's funny.
00:54:43It's come to life.
00:54:45Just like mine does every morning.
00:54:54Be careful, Will.
00:54:55Don't get any powder on my new outfit.
00:55:00Whoops.
00:55:01Oh, never mind.
00:55:02I'll clean it up before I wear it.
00:55:04I'm on my way to see Jarvis right now.
00:55:06This will probably be it.
00:55:08Don't be too sure about that.
00:55:10The thing is, I get this whiff of you.
00:55:13Let me see.
00:55:15What is that?
00:55:17Oh, yeah.
00:55:19Fraud.
00:55:22Do you know what I reckon, son?
00:55:24I reckon you're a bloody fake.
00:55:28William, William, William.
00:55:32I am going to be on your side.
00:55:35You've lost, mate.
00:55:36I have won.
00:55:37Shame.
00:55:39Oh, not my face.
00:55:41Not my bloody face.
00:55:42You moved.
00:55:43I didn't move, Will.
00:55:44You hit me straight on.
00:55:45Bones, look at my coat.
00:55:47My coat?
00:55:48I think you'll find that it's my bloody coat, gentlemen.
00:55:51Mr Adams?
00:55:52All the way from Glasgow.
00:55:54And gasping for a drink.
00:55:55We didn't know you were coming.
00:55:57Did you not?
00:55:58A pleasant surprise, then.
00:56:00Mr George Cosmo.
00:56:02Mr Adams' underboss at the Glasgow house.
00:56:05Position correct.
00:56:06Geography wrong.
00:56:08I'm transplanted here to the hallowed ground of Taplos.
00:56:12Mr Jarvis sent for me two days ago.
00:56:14Bastard.
00:56:16Sorry, Mr Adams.
00:56:18I think I can promise you will be.
00:56:21Fighting on duty.
00:56:23You, no pay for a month.
00:56:26You, ditto.
00:56:35Ah.
00:57:00Not under Butler after all.
00:57:02I'll get over it.
00:57:04You still upset?
00:57:06I'll get over it.
00:57:10We could go to Italy one day.
00:57:12That's what you really want?
00:57:14I want a lot of things.
00:57:16Same here.
00:57:18This is just the start.
00:57:20You'll have to learn to behave yourself, then.
00:57:24I'll be as good as gold from now, I promise.
00:57:28I will.
00:57:51You told me you were good at this.
00:57:53It's George.
00:57:55George, someone's coming.
00:58:17I said two.
00:58:19Put it back.
00:58:20Shut up. Look how many he's thiefed.
00:58:22We drink one, we sell one. Two at a time.
00:58:24It'll take him weeks to notice.
00:58:26Quit it.
00:58:37It's all about using this.

00:59:13Pumper's git. Nasty git.
00:59:15I know why, of course.
00:59:17He's too old to make Butler now.
00:59:19This is him for life.
00:59:21Ugly bastard.
00:59:25You should have got a job.
00:59:29Where we'll keep an eye out for each other.
00:59:33What do you mean?
00:59:36My first task...
00:59:38Young gentleman.
00:59:40..will be to take your pathetic, shambling thorn
00:59:43into something his lordship can be proud of.
00:59:46Yeah, and a pig's bloody ear.
00:59:51Shit!
00:59:54Shit!

01:01:09She didn't mean to.
01:01:11She was just rushing to Harry.
01:01:13Then what is to stand for?
01:01:15That's a shame!
