00:30Oh
01:00I'll get it.
01:15Morning.
01:16Parcel for you, Mr. Calmady.
01:23Thank you so much.
01:24Bye.
01:26Well, well, Hamish.
01:27What have we got here?
01:28I bet you can smell it, can't you?
01:29What is this thing?
01:30It's boring.
01:31Can you guess what this is?
01:32Aha, droppings.
01:33In the post.
01:34It's our new preventative measures.
01:35Modern, isn't it?
01:36Yes, Calmady thought of it.
01:37We test for conditions before animals develop symptoms.
01:38Notice anything?
01:39No.
01:40No.
01:41No.
01:42No.
01:43No.
01:44No.
01:45No.
01:46No.
01:47No.
01:48No.
01:49No.
01:50No.
01:51No.
01:52No.
01:53No.
01:54No.
01:55Notice anything?
01:58Oh, a size of pellets.
02:00Pygmy goats?
02:01On the Grantley Estate.
02:02It's quite the menagerie out there.
02:04Might quickly pop these under the microscope.
02:05I'll join you.
02:06Mr. Farnell, we're about to serve breakfast.
02:09Don't worry, this won't take a moment.
02:12Oh how lovely it is.
02:14Bit cold.
02:17Hmm.
02:18Bad news, is it?
02:19Worms?
02:20Plenty of eggs in here.
02:23Roundworm, I'd say.
02:28We're low on piperazine.
02:29New stock arrived yesterday.
02:31Yes, the infestation is advanced.
02:34Better get up to the grantee place
02:35pronto before it gets out of hand.
02:37Thankfully, we're on to it before they've
02:38exhibited symptoms.
02:39Yes, bravo.
02:40On table.
02:42We can see if that new worming gun delivers as expected.
02:45Let's hope.
02:47Morning.
02:49Blimey, James, you look the worse for wear.
02:53Enjoy your lie-in.
02:55Tristan took me drinking last night in Oakley.
02:58Oh, that den of iniquity.
03:00Feeling wretched, are we?
03:02No.
03:03Did you have a fun night at the pub?
03:05You poor, poor man.
03:08Need to mend this today.
03:09Absolutely.
03:10I'll seat it.
03:11But first, Sir Simmons.
03:14Sir Simmons.
03:24Oh.
03:27Where's this, I reckon?
03:30Mrs. Eats, you're a godsend.
03:32I'm done for morning surgery, aren't I?
03:34Oh, don't fret.
03:35Enjoy your breakfast.
03:37You have nine minutes.
03:38Oh.
03:41Legendary night, old chap.
03:42Set the bar high.
03:44Can we beat it tonight?
03:45God damn it, we'll try.
03:46Tonight?
03:47Yeah, drinks with the Oakley Cricket 11.
03:49Hoping they'll let me play again.
03:51I'm not hearing hesitation there, am I, co-pilot?
03:53This is vital work for the war effort.
03:55I expect my brain will be reassembled by this evening.
03:59Didn't you have a lecture to prepare?
04:02Lecture?
04:03In Doncaster tomorrow.
04:04Getting the recruits ready for the North African front.
04:06Just adding some final touches today.
04:08What's it on?
04:10Mule hydration in desert conditions.
04:13Sounds a bit dry.
04:15Thanks.
04:16I think you've just given me my first line.
04:17I thought you were just finishing it off.
04:19Oh, don't worry.
04:20It's all up here.
04:20It's just a case of letting it flow out onto the page.
04:23You're popular this morning, Mr. Garmady.
04:26Don't keep us in suspense.
04:28What type of food did you get this time?
04:30Mm.
04:31Looks official.
04:33Royal Veterinary College.
04:36That's your exam result?
04:38Chop Chop Man opened it.
04:51And?
04:53It says here I got a distinction.
04:55Oh, really?
04:55Oh, bravo.
04:59Apparently the outstanding distinction in the year.
05:01Well done, old chap.
05:02Well done, Mr. Garmady.
05:04That's incredible.
05:05I never thought I'd see the day someone bested me at exams.
05:09That is tremendous news.
05:10Might I see?
05:14I think I need to take a moment.
05:19A second is center of attention.
05:21The boy runs a mile.
05:22Wonder what his plans are now.
05:24He's qualified.
05:25If we're keeping him here, we'll have to formally offer him a job.
05:28Well, we couldn't do any better.
05:30I take it you have no objection?
05:33Well, he just about passes muster.
05:36It's a pleasure working alongside him.
05:39Finally, a scientific brain and veterinary intelligence
05:41that matches my own.
05:43Don't mind me, Siegfried.
05:45Don't mind me.
05:46Door.
05:51Door.
05:55That's him, eh?
06:00Mr. Garmady, isn't it?
06:01He fixed up Candy, didn't he?
06:03Jenny's horse.
06:06Yes, I, Richard.
06:10Yes, the horse.
06:13Candy is a horse.
06:16Lovely morning.
06:19I like the sun and the blue, blue sky.
06:26Important fact is that make up a lovely morning.
06:29You're not wrong there.
06:30Please, um, Mr. Harriet, we'll see you in a moment.
06:39Take a seat, Doris.
06:40Be with you shortly.
06:44Good night.
06:46What are you doing?
06:53That land girl, her name escapes me.
06:56Surprised you'd forget.
06:58Such a beautiful musical name, Doris.
07:01Quite.
07:02When she's near, I exhibit certain symptoms.
07:05My heart rate goes up.
07:06My pupils dilate.
07:07Mr. Farnham, my diagnosis is that I'm developing
07:10romantic feelings for Doris.
07:12That would also be my diagnosis.
07:14May surprise you to know, but I haven't had a great deal
07:16of experience in this area.
07:18That is surprising.
07:19So I badly need some advice.
07:21Lucky Tristan's on hand.
07:23You could always ask me.
07:25I happen to be an expert in the affairs of the heart.
07:27Really?
07:30It's just I've been here 18 months.
07:31I don't think I've once seen you with a woman.
07:35Well, only because there's a war on.
07:39Richard, you can trust me on this one.
07:41I know what I'm talking about.
07:43Very kind offer.
07:44And if Tristan omits anything, I'll
07:46be sure to pick up with you.
07:57Magnificent animal.
08:00God, what have you been feeding him?
08:02David's not even my biggest.
08:04Got yourself a Goliath, have you?
08:07Haven't I, have?
08:09Our new rat catchers.
08:11Danby's got me training eight of them now.
08:13Looks like they enjoy the taste of fingers.
08:15I haven't got the measure of them yet.
08:19Is it bad?
08:20I reckon he must have snagged himself
08:21in a piece of wire or something.
08:24It were your first ratting, weren't it, David?
08:29It's fairly deep, unfortunately.
08:32Is he healthy otherwise?
08:33Seems to be.
08:35I'll remove any dirt and debris, and then we'll operate.
08:40Is he going to be all right?
08:41Oh, yes.
08:42It's a simple enough procedure.
08:44Though I will have to sedate him.
08:45I'll do it after morning surgery.
08:47But Mr. Danby expects me back.
08:49You're to leave him here.
08:51Pick him up later in the afternoon.
08:54Right you are.
08:58Oh.
08:59Oh.
09:00Hey.
09:00Hey.
09:01Hey.
09:02Hey, baby.
09:03Oh, Doris.
09:04This is Harriet.
09:05Oh, hello there, you.
09:09Oh, what happened to you?
09:11Oh, one of my new ferrets.
09:12He's in for an operation.
09:14Oh, James will see him, right?
09:16Well, Mr. Danby doesn't like to be kept waiting.
09:19So, so.
09:20Oh, Jenny mentioned you having a few snags with Danby.
09:22Oh, no.
09:24No, he...
09:26Well, he's not the easiest.
09:31Shall we fix this up?
09:32Have a brew while we're at it.
09:34Thanks, Mrs. Harriet.
09:36It's Ellen.
09:38Oh.
10:01What?
10:02Helps me think.
10:08All right.
10:12I'm curious about something.
10:14Please.
10:15I was under the impression that receiving
10:17the outstanding distinction in your year
10:21put one in line for the Warner's Prize.
10:24Oh?
10:25Yes, a research program at Imperial London.
10:31So has that been discontinued?
10:35Actually, it's not discontinued.
10:40They offered it to me.
10:45You got it?
10:46But that's splendid.
10:48What an incredible honor.
10:50But that must have been in your letter.
10:51Why on earth would you keep it under your hat?
10:54Because much as I'd love to spend my time researching,
10:58I can't possibly accept.
10:59Why not?
11:01I've heard soldier stories firsthand.
11:04I'm not fighting.
11:04At least I should be serving.
11:06Vets are vital to the war effort.
11:08Me off having a jolly in a lab while everyone
11:10else is suffering? No.
11:11I'd feel like some kind of libertine.
11:12I'm well.
11:13In fact, now I'm qualified, I rather hoped
11:14I might stay on at Skildale.
11:17You're saying you're turning down
11:19the Warner's to stay here?
11:21Of course, when the war's won, you
11:23may wish for a new veterinary team.
11:24That's understood.
11:25Richard, you're in.
11:26There's nothing I'd like more.
11:34I'm in here.
12:02Miss Grudnick.
12:03Mr. Carmody.
12:05How are those goats of yours faring?
12:06Well, they're in fine spirits, I'd say.
12:10I was surprised by your call.
12:12What's so urgent?
12:13Round one.
12:14Oh.
12:14Don't worry.
12:15Thanks for our new postal pellet system.
12:17We're onto it before your herd suffer any consequences.
12:19Oh, that's marvelous.
12:21No, thank you.
12:21Believe it or not, you're the only client
12:23who agreed to post me faeces.
12:26This is Mr. Farnham.
12:31Catherine Grantley.
12:32Secret Farnham.
12:33How do you do?
12:34I was up here before for your brother's beagles.
12:37He mentioned you lived abroad.
12:38Persian.
12:41The war took him to London.
12:43So I'm taking care of the estate while he's gone.
12:46Right.
12:47Follow me.
12:48Yad, yad.
12:49Yalla, yalla.
12:56I thought it was the brother who
12:57was looking after the estate.
12:58Why didn't you tell me it was the sister
12:59who was running things?
13:00Brother, sister, what difference does it make?
13:02It's just highly unprofessional not to give
13:04me the full information.
13:06Is it?
13:20He just can't see past the fact that I'm a girl
13:22who grew up in a big city.
13:24Sounds like Danby, all right.
13:26The old man's set in his ways.
13:28He mustn't take it to her.
13:30I'm not scared of farm work, but when
13:32I ask Mr. Danby for advice, the man just grunts.
13:35I'm forever sprinting to Weston to ask Jenny.
13:39Luckily, I know how to interpret the Danby grunts.
13:42Turns out there's only three kinds.
13:44There's one like this.
13:48That means, stop, stop, you're doing it wrong.
13:52Work faster, will you?
13:54Number three.
13:57Carry on while I have an afternoon nap.
14:00Sometimes till dinner time.
14:02Well, I know you don't mind a bit of graft.
14:05I do not.
14:06You know, there's plenty for hope.
14:07You throw them in at the deep end like that,
14:09they'd just drown.
14:10Still, it wouldn't hurt Danby to give
14:12Doris clear instructions.
14:15Oh, and that means I need me nappy changing.
14:19Oh.
14:21Oh.
14:22Oh.
14:26Come on, let's make it go away!
14:28Ah!
14:28Beep beep beep beep beep beep!
14:48Mrs. Hall, we have a situation.
14:50There's a situation.
15:00Something dropped on Mr Hampson's top field last night.
15:03An unidentified object.
15:05Sorry, do you mean a bomb?
15:10Shh!
15:11Someone hears us, panic will spread through Derby like wildfire.
15:14Careless talk costs lives.
15:16What if it's a...
15:19Shouldn't we call in the Home Guard?
15:21No.
15:22That's just it.
15:23Protocol demands that we wardens make the initial assessment.
15:25In fact, I was halfway there when I remembered.
15:29Section 15, rule 5B of the handbook.
15:31Two wardens must be present to confirm any sighting.
15:35I'll grab my coat.
15:39Mrs Holt, think, think, think.
15:41It's official business.
15:43A uniform is mandatory.
15:44Well, shouldn't we just get there as fast as possible?
15:48Why don't I grab my helmet?
15:50Well, then, I suppose I'll change.
15:55I'll be outside.
15:56Luckily, I managed to come and deer a vehicle.
15:58Hey-o, Mr Bosworth.
16:01Doris, from what Mr Danby's, you wanted me to paint all his cows.
16:06Stuck in my memory for some reason.
16:08Ah, yes, I remember.
16:11And where's that lovely dog of yours today?
16:15I'm afraid dear Bingo's departed this world.
16:19Oh.
16:20Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.
16:22Mrs Holt, I'll be outside.
16:26Bless him.
16:27Poor man took a dad.
16:29Though he did drive us off mad that day.
16:31Acting like a bit of paint on cows
16:33was going to make Mr Hitler turn his tanks round.
16:36Oh, see?
16:37Silver linings.
16:39All your employer does is grunt.
16:42Small mercies.
16:51There you are.
16:52All done.
16:53Looks like you chaps are making progress.
16:54Indeed we are.
16:55And our new worming gun is working a treat.
17:00You know, I'm intrigued.
17:01Why Persia?
17:02Miss Grantley's an archaeologist.
17:04Yes, I lived there for, well, over 20 years or more.
17:09But unfortunately Iran's shower was rather taken
17:11with our Nazi opponents, so I had to stop digging.
17:14Yeah, the war demands sacrifices from us all.
17:17Yes.
17:18Yes, it does.
17:20Well, that about does it.
17:22Only the two little ones under the tree.
17:25Oh, these are my favourites.
17:27They're brothers, you know.
17:29Tan Grisnir and Tan Mustre.
17:31Oh, I'm honoured.
17:33The goats who pull Thor's chariot, no less.
17:35You know your Norse mythology.
17:37A little.
17:40Hi, baby.
17:42They're hypersensitive.
17:44Skin crawling, is it?
17:45Magnesium deficiency?
17:47They're being supplemented.
17:49These two have been itching something rotten.
17:51I've heard horror stories about roundworm.
17:53Well, that's just it.
17:54Roundworm wouldn't make them itch.
17:57So we have a comorbidity.
17:59Two illnesses presenting at the same time.
18:02Isn't something of a mystery?
18:04Lice?
18:05A mystery?
18:06Sorry, we're not talking the lost treasure of Derir.
18:09We'll soon have an answer for you.
18:19What?
18:20That's it.
18:21Lice?
18:22No.
18:24You.
18:26Your pupils have dilated.
18:28You were blushing, mirroring her actions.
18:30You were attracted to Miss Grantley.
18:32Oh, for God's sake.
18:33The symptoms never lie.
18:35Yes, and that's why you were annoyed I didn't mention that the owner was female.
18:38You wish to prime your feathers in readiness.
18:40Don't be absurd.
18:41Give me that.
18:51All right, lads.
18:53Here we go.
18:55Here we go.
18:56There you are.
18:57There you are, lad.
18:58And it's headly verity.
19:00Headly verity from the coast to lane end.
19:03Tristan, what the?
19:04Oh, I thought you just might want a little interruption.
19:06No, I would not.
19:07I've lost a blasted fit.
19:09Shut the door, will you?
19:10You'll end up hunting volanelle.
19:12Bloody hell, James.
19:13Why don't you keep a nice firm hold of it, man?
19:15I'm busy.
19:16Perfectly understand.
19:23That's it, lad.
19:24That's it.
19:25That's it.
19:26There we are.
19:27There we go, lad.
19:28James.
19:29I've set the stumps up in the yard for when you are finished.
19:57Oh, goodness me.
19:59I specifically warned Mr. Hampson not to talk.
20:03Some folk.
20:05They hear there might be a bomb, they rush to get close.
20:08Mrs. Hall, please.
20:09Not the B word.
20:10Remember, careless talk costs lives.
20:12Stand well back.
20:13It's over near.
20:14Get out.
20:17The head warden is here.
20:19The head warden is in charge.
20:21I am in charge.
20:22I am in charge.
20:23Move back.
20:25Move back.
20:26Move well back.
20:27Right.
20:29Oh, bloody.
20:34There.
20:36Do you see it?
20:37There's a trail.
20:39Yes.
20:40An impact trail.
20:41So we follow it.
20:43Proceed with extreme caution, Mrs. Hall.
20:45Mr. Bosworth, say we do find a bomb.
20:49In the event of a positive assessment,
20:51we phone from Hampson's and report to the district report centre.
20:58Stay alert, Mrs. Hall.
21:00Proceed with caution.
21:04Right.
21:17Bloody hell.
21:28Mrs. Hall, we only need to identify it.
21:31That's not a bomb.
21:35That's a flight crate.
21:37No, don't.
21:39Don't.
21:40It might be munitions.
21:42We don't know what's inside.
21:44Well, we do, actually.
21:46Tinned potatoes.
21:50Powdered eggs.
21:52Flour.
21:54Just brushes, paste, soap.
21:57So someone could have landed here.
22:00Nazi spies.
22:02Well, the Nazis used paste soap and Gibbs SR toothpaste.
22:07No.
22:09No, this'll have come from one of our planes.
22:11We'll probably find they've had a call about another one further down the road.
22:15Mr. Harriot says it's common.
22:18When fuel runs low, they dump the excess weight.
22:21It's one possibility amongst many.
22:23And since, Mrs. Hall, you are not yourself an expert on spies or bombs...
22:28Shh.
22:29Careless dog.
22:31I would simply advise that you resist jumping to conclusions.
22:37You may be risking innocent lives.
22:54So it's not lice.
22:57Where do we go from here?
22:59Damn puzzle is what it is.
23:02Why aren't they with the others?
23:04Come on, they've been under that tree the whole time we've been here.
23:07Golly.
23:08You've figured it out, haven't you?
23:11Well, it's a lovely sunny day.
23:13Suggests some reaction to the hot weather.
23:15Heat stress?
23:16Then why the itching?
23:17Or light?
23:19Oh, I know where you're going with this.
23:21Wait.
23:27St. John's Wort.
23:29I think the brothers have been munching on it.
23:33And now they don't want to go out into the sun. It's made them photosensitive.
23:36They don't want to risk getting sunburned.
23:38Splendid. Well done, Mr. Farnham.
23:40Ah, Tash, you'd have put it together before long.
23:42Good news. I was about to offer you some coffee.
23:45Mr. Farnham's just solved it.
23:47Oh?
23:48He's such an accomplished vet.
23:50All in all, he's clever, dependable, the kindest of men.
23:54And not currently in a pair bond.
24:09Listen, Carmody.
24:10That was bloody embarrassing.
24:12What the hell were you thinking?
24:14But you like her, so why wouldn't I help?
24:16A pair bond?
24:17Humans are like swans and foxes.
24:19They generally thrive in pair bonds.
24:21Carmody, this is far from your area of expertise.
24:24Very far.
24:26There's a pace at which these things are done.
24:29A subtlety.
24:31Sorry.
24:32It's just you look like you might be succumbing to fight or flight.
24:36Raised anxiety because you were overwhelmed by your attraction.
24:39I know what it means.
24:40Richard, I am perfectly capable with women.
24:43Perfectly capable!
24:44Perfectly capable!
24:50Just get these two inside.
24:53Out of the sunlight.
24:55Coffee's ready for you both.
24:57Thank you, Miss Grantley.
24:58Thank you, Miss Grantley.
25:07Blasted thing, he ate me so much.
25:09Oh, dear.
25:10Bye-bye.
25:11Bye-bye, little man.
25:14Bye-bye.
25:15Hold on, where are you going?
25:17I promised I'd pull out that faucet's radishes.
25:20Good luck.
25:24Ah, there he is.
25:25My errant batsman.
25:26Mind if I borrow him for 30 minutes?
25:28Want to see if you can spot my googly.
25:29Try me at the weekend.
25:31I tell you what, I'll help.
25:32We finish in double time.
25:33Time you save, you bat.
25:34I've got Jimmy for an hour and then I'm back in surgery.
25:36See if he's got a much better screwdriver than that.
25:38Two seconds.
25:39Two seconds.
25:42It's not enough that we're back out drinking again tonight.
25:46How on earth did I end up looking after Tristan on top of everything else?
25:50The night calls, Jimmy teething.
25:52You know, it's not that complicated.
25:54You just tell Trish he's staying in.
25:56If he's redeployed, he might not be back forever.
26:01He'll need some happy memories.
26:03Tristan's had enough drunken nights to last a lifetime.
26:07Talk to him.
26:10Cheerio, Helen.
26:11Here we are, old boy.
26:16Now, let's show your daddy how it's done, alright?
26:19Pass it here.
26:21No.
26:23In the left.
26:25Watch and learn.
26:26Ow.
26:30Ow.
26:32Ow.
26:33Ow.
26:34Ow.
26:37I shall make my report to the District Report Centre
26:40from the Hampstons' property.
26:42Not a word to these bystanders.
26:44They mustn't hear about the Tim Potatoes.
26:47Head Office may wish to make further identification.
26:50So now you're going to call out the young guard?
26:53To identify a bar of soap?
26:55It's important to dot the I's and cross the T's, that's all.
26:59You're not still thinking it's enemy spies?
27:01Nobody parachuted off that plane.
27:04We can't say for certain.
27:06What's got into you?
27:07Anybody'd think you want Darabee to be in danger.
27:10Come on, now.
27:11I've got a busy day.
27:12Well, the quicker I get my report in, the safer Darabee will be.
27:16Fine, I will utilise my home telephone.
27:20Oh!
27:23Absolutely, it will be with you.
27:25I have it right here in my hand, the next draft.
27:28Mm-hm.
27:293pm.
27:30Friday.
27:31I'll be there.
27:32Goodbye.
27:33Thank you, Martha.
27:34Madam.
27:38I'm confused, Mr Carmody.
27:40St John's Wort is a boost to humans but toxic to goats.
27:46Same compound responsible, actually.
27:48Hypericin, one of my absolute favourites.
27:50On contact with light, the hypericin seeks out the goat's unpigmented cells under the white hair
27:55and destroys their walls, causing a severe inflammatory reaction.
27:59I can see why you're so fond of it.
28:03There's rather a lovely passage about it in Wilkes and Graham, in fact.
28:06I have a first edition, up on the top shelf with my husband's books.
28:11Have a look.
28:12Oh.
28:14I will indeed.
28:19So your husband stayed out east, did he?
28:23Well, you could say that.
28:25He contracted malaria out there and died.
28:29Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
28:33I know how devastating...
28:34No, it was...
28:36It was so long ago and I was so young I can barely remember him.
28:45So...
28:46Mm-hm.
28:48This was all before the Great War.
28:50And since then I've lived my life free of men's plans for me.
28:59Ah!
29:01That boy.
29:02Got the top distinction in his year.
29:04Won a prestigious research post in London.
29:06Golly, I smash it.
29:09Though I can't say I'm surprised.
29:11You know, I think I'm putting it together.
29:14Your love for goats.
29:16Weren't they first domesticated in Persia?
29:18They were. Do you know when?
29:20I'd say around 10,000 years ago.
29:23Jolly good.
29:25In later Persian civilisations, goats represented divine order and goodness.
29:31And is that what you're writing about?
29:33No, actually, my book is more of an overview,
29:37based loosely on a series of lectures I teach at Cambridge.
29:41Zarathustra and ziggurats.
29:44It all sounds fascinating.
29:46Digging for treasure, forgotten civilisations appearing out of the dust.
29:50Not a normal life.
29:52I sometimes wonder what I missed out on.
29:55But you've lived on the other side of the world. You must have seen so much.
29:58There were forks in the road.
30:01And you never do find out what might have happened going the other way.
30:11No, you don't.
30:14The Persians believed divine will was expressed through a person's particular talents and interests.
30:20And I, um, I really can't think of a better way to navigate one's life.
30:30Mr. Fernand tells me you're leaving for London. Congratulations.
30:37Your prize.
30:38Oh, I'm not accepting it.
30:40No?
30:41No?
30:42I'd much rather stay here as a vet. Help with the war effort.
30:46Oh.
30:48Oh, right, of course.
30:58So, Ziggurats and Zarathustra.
31:00Well, actually, it's the other way around.
31:02I'd be fascinated to read it.
31:04Well, I...
31:06I do have a draft copy.
31:11It's rather long, though. Are you quite sure?
31:13It would be a privilege.
31:16Well, you would be under absolutely no obligation whatsoever.
31:19But if you did decide to tackle it, I would be very interested to know how it lands with the general reader.
31:29No, I do believe she likes those fine feathers of yours.
31:31Keep it down. Keep it down.
31:34Keep it down.
31:39Oh.
31:45I shall treasure it. Thank you.
31:48Miss Grantley?
31:49Mr. Fernand.
31:51Cheerio, Miss Grantley.
31:52Cheerio.
32:25The man who sold them said ferrets take out rats quicker than strychnine.
32:29I can quite believe it. These chaps are their natural creditors.
32:32Well, thank you, Mr. Heriot.
32:34Oh, how long till he's back ratting?
32:37Oh, a week, she did.
32:38Right.
32:40You used strychnine before?
32:42Aye.
32:43But fat chance of getting your hands on any of these past few months. It's like gold dust.
32:48Mr. Fernand said bingo symptoms were consistent with strychnine poisoning.
32:52I'd never leave rat poison lying around.
32:54Just, you said Mr. Bosworth were up at Dambies with bingo?
32:59What did you do with the rats after he poisoned them?
33:02I buried them, like Mr. Dambie said.
33:04How deep?
33:05Dambie didn't say.
33:07Doris, when a rat dies from poison, the corpse stays full of it.
33:10You have to bury them deep, otherwise the foxes dig them up and poison themselves.
33:15Right, it's just round this wall here.
33:26Oh, no, I didn't leave it dug up like this.
33:29Hey.
33:31Sorry, I don't think you buried them deep enough.
33:36So it was me.
33:39I murdered Bingo.
33:40Well, you weren't to know.
33:43Nobody told you any different, did they?
33:45This is his responsibility.
33:47Dambie.
33:48Well, I better tell Mr. Bosworth.
33:53Why don't you let me break it to him first?
33:55I could bloody well throttle you.
33:56If you showed one ounce of human kindness, that dog would still be alive.
34:01Come on.
34:02What have you got to say for yourself?
34:09Googly!
34:10Yes!
34:12See, told you, didn't I? Went the other way entirely.
34:14You bamboozled Mr. James Heriot.
34:16But could you get it by Mr. Len Hutton?
34:17Yes, undoubtedly.
34:19Come on, Jimmy lad. Nap time.
34:21Whoa, whoa, James.
34:22Get back to the crease. I wouldn't mind bowling again.
34:24Sorry, can't.
34:26Just as I said we'd play, we played.
34:27For what? Ten minutes?
34:29Twenty, actually.
34:30Look.
34:31Let me guess, you're about to pull out of tonight, aren't you?
34:34Tactical rest before the weekend.
34:35I understand. I'll call the Otley boys and rearrange.
34:37Can't do the weekend either.
34:39Oh.
34:41Something up?
34:42Look at all this rabble rousing.
34:43Time wants to be right on your shoulder.
34:45But Helen doesn't mind.
34:46No, it's me.
34:47I want to enjoy my time with Jimmy.
34:49And I want my mind cleared to do my best work.
34:51You just can't keep up with me, can you?
34:53I can still have fun like the old days.
34:55Just not every night.
34:56Better if you give me some warning.
34:58Sorry, old chap.
35:00Perhaps I took it a little too far.
35:02I just wanted to make the most of being back.
35:04You're all right, though?
35:05Of course.
35:06Come here, old chap.
35:09Speaking of responsibilities.
35:11Finished that lecture of yours, have you?
35:13Oh, what? You think I've been distracting you with cricket to avoid getting it done?
35:17What about your playpen?
35:18Shouldn't you be getting back to that?
35:20One more over.
35:21That's the ticket.
35:22Come on, Jimmy lad.
35:24Watch your feathers.
35:25Forward defence, my boy.
35:30Show us your best googly, then.
35:32Googly!
35:34Yes!
35:35I wasn't ready.
35:36And again.
35:41He told me he'd made his decision.
35:46I see.
35:47I should have set him straight this morning.
35:50Dammit, I just wasn't prepared for him leaving so suddenly.
35:53That's natural enough.
35:54You weren't even close.
35:56I got used to him being around.
35:57I was...
35:59selfish.
36:00You've helped that boy enormously.
36:03And what better culmination than in winning that prize?
36:07It's not up to me, though.
36:09That boy seems to have his mind all made up.
36:13I reckon there's more behind it than that.
36:17Think how Mr Garmady were brought up.
36:20Being sent from pillar to post.
36:22Yes.
36:27Yes.
36:29No, you might be on to something there.
36:31Thank you, Mrs Hall.
36:32I'll talk to him again.
36:41What?
36:42What?
36:47What?
37:01You look busy.
37:08Let me guess.
37:09Imperial College.
37:13Your brother told you?
37:14Just now.
37:17Not an easy decision, as you can imagine.
37:19Well, I know exactly how it feels.
37:22I refuse the Warners, too.
37:24Oh.
37:26Right, so...
37:29Oh, I see.
37:31You're pulling my leg.
37:33Yes.
37:36Damn hard to find the right phrasing.
37:38They're honouring me.
37:40But my reply sounds like I'm giving them some kind of moral lecture.
37:44Well, good luck.
37:50You know,
37:53there was a time when I couldn't imagine leaving Skeldale either.
38:14No.
38:35No.
38:36Come on, Audrey.
38:39Carry it over with.
38:41Make a note on your pantry door, all right?
38:43Sorry.
38:44Remember, remember.
38:46Mr Bosworth?
38:49Can I have a word?
38:52Well,
38:54what a blummin' stupid way for Bingo to go.
38:58I'll need a word with her.
39:00She feels awful about it.
39:02She wants to apologise in person.
39:05Apologise?
39:06I don't want to hear it.
39:07Like bringing back?
39:09No.
39:10In fact, if you are talking to her,
39:12tell her this for me.
39:14Tell her.
39:15Tell her!
39:21Bingo brought me so much happiness.
39:25I'm not having bring in misery to her.
39:28And so, in conclusion,
39:31artful management of water supply, water conservation,
39:34shade and rest will protect your mules from dehydration
39:38even in the most scorching of deserts.
39:43Thank you very much.
39:45What do you think?
39:46Too long?
39:48No, you're right.
39:49It's perfect, isn't it?
39:50Perfect.
39:52What did you think?
39:53Do you have any notes?
39:54No?
39:55No notes?
40:08You wrote your letter then?
40:12In time to catch the evening post.
40:15Took me an age to figure out how to phrase it.
40:18Better for it to be logical.
40:20Struggling to find the logic, were you?
40:22No.
40:23My answer made complete sense.
40:28I just don't know anymore, that's the truth of it.
40:30You know, if you were to go off to London,
40:35I hope you know there's always a place here for you.
40:38No, see,
40:39if I took the Warners, I'd be leaving practice to do research, primarily.
40:44I don't mean as a vet.
40:48Oh.
40:58That should do it.
41:03There we go.
41:10What's the note?
41:18Well, I, well, I think I have an announcement.
41:26Hey, Mish.
41:30This morning, I found out I was awarded the Warners prize.
41:35Accepting it would mean an imminent departure for London.
41:37Oh?
41:38The Warners, eh?
41:41After some consideration, I've decided to accept.
41:47That's bloody marvellous, old chap.
41:50Ten days' time I start. Down in London.
41:53But that's so soon.
41:55It must have been a tough decision, pal, but I see great things ahead.
41:59Oh, come here. I mean, wonderful news.
42:01Yeah, the place won't be the same.
42:03Rather wish I could take you all with me.
42:05Well, that'd be some suitcase.
42:08Right, this calls for a celebratory drink.
42:12I mean, I'm finally getting my bed back.
42:15James won't be able to make it, of course.
42:16You have to give him at least six months' notice.
42:19Richard, beers.
42:21You go. I'll join you.
42:23I have to do some reading.
42:26This all?
42:28You don't happen to have the phone number for Old Danby Farm?
42:35Thanks for being so understanding about this, Triss.
42:38Ellen?
42:39Hey, I'd love a night off.
42:41You'll be all right with Jimmy, won't you?
42:43I suppose I'll have to be.
42:45Have a good time.
42:48Hi, Jimmy.
42:50You're not going to be long.
42:52Hi, Jimmy.
42:54You like your new playpen?
43:15Hello, Doris?
43:17It's Mr. Carmody.
43:18Richard.
43:19That's him, me.
43:21I'm Richard Carmody.
43:23I'm a vet.
43:25For animals.
43:27Anyhow,
43:30we were all about to go to the Drovers.
43:32Have a drink.
43:35If you join us,
43:37it would be excellent to see you there.
43:39Yes?
43:41Well,
43:43in about half an hour, then.
43:45Goodbye.
43:49You're coming to the capital.
43:51It'll just be you, me, and the big city.
43:55Ready for a new ballad of sniffs?
43:57Of course you are.
44:03Drovers?
44:06Shall we?
44:08Super.
44:11Oh, and Doris has promised to join us.
44:16New book?
44:17Oh, just something I picked up about ancient Persia.
44:21It's quite a tome.
44:26Remember when he first arrived?
44:29Well, he didn't know a thing.
44:30Now look at him.
44:31Doors and everything.
44:39Well, this is jolly.
44:41All of us celebrating together.
44:44Oh, don't mind me, Siegfried.
44:47Don't mind us.
