- - Keep it down!
- - <i>♫ Sarnia... ♫</i>

- 00:01:05,708 --> 00:01:10,328
- Oh, sweetest pork I ever tasted, Dawsey.
- Succulent.
- 10
- 00:01:10,458 --> 00:01:13,041
- And, Isola?
- 11
- 00:01:13,167 --> 00:01:15,079
- - Your gin...
- - Shh.
- 12
- 00:01:15,208 --> 00:01:17,120
- He'll get us all arrested!

- - You two, go on.
- 15
- 00:01:24,042 --> 00:01:27,080
- - I'll take him back over the field.
- - Sod 'em!
- 16
- 00:01:27,208 --> 00:01:29,450
- This is our island,
- our home, not theirs!
- 17
- 00:01:29,583 --> 00:01:32,326
- Those square-headed buggers
- can shove...
- 18
- 00:01:32,458 --> 00:01:33,665
- Stop!
- 19
- 00:01:36,875 --> 00:01:38,286
- Papers!
- 20
- 00:01:38,417 --> 00:01:41,956
- Of course, Captain.
- 21
- 00:01:47,583 --> 00:01:49,745
- - The pig was beautiful, Dawsey.
- - Shh.
- 22
- 00:01:52,708 --> 00:01:55,496
- - That bloody pie, though.
- - You are breaking curfew.
- 23
- 00:01:56,500 --> 00:01:58,617
- What is the purpose of your assembly?
- 24
- 00:01:58,750 --> 00:02:00,491
- - We... We were just...
- - Reading.
- 25
- 00:02:02,167 --> 00:02:04,500
- We have a book club, you see.
- 26
- 00:02:05,458 --> 00:02:09,498
- You know the authorities are trying
- to encourage cultural association
- 27
- 00:02:09,625 --> 00:02:12,333
- as part of your model occupation.
- 28
- 00:02:12,458 --> 00:02:15,530
- Yes, yes, book lovers, that's us.
- 29
- 00:02:15,667 --> 00:02:17,579
- What is the name of your club?
- 30
- 00:02:17,708 --> 00:02:19,916
- - Erm...
- - Erm...
- 31
- 00:02:20,917 --> 00:02:24,661
- - The Guernsey Literary and...
- - The bloody potato peel pie...
- 32
- 00:02:24,792 --> 00:02:27,455
- The Guernsey Literary
- and Potato Peel Pie...
- 33
- 00:02:27,583 --> 00:02:30,621
- The Guernsey Literary
- and Potato Peel Pie Society.
- 34
- 00:02:30,750 --> 00:02:33,868
- It should be on the list.
- Guernsey Literary...
- 35
- 00:02:34,667 --> 00:02:37,455
- You're not confiscating
- potato peelings yet, are you?
- 36
- 00:02:41,208 --> 00:02:43,416
- This is an illegal assembly.
- 37
- 00:02:43,542 --> 00:02:45,875
- You will come with us. All of you!
- 38
- 00:02:51,458 --> 00:02:53,245
- Are you all right, Eben?
- 39
- 00:02:53,375 --> 00:02:54,832
- Shall I help put him into your car?
- 40
- 00:02:55,583 --> 00:02:59,406
- You will register this group...
- first thing in the morning!
- 41
- 00:03:00,292 --> 00:03:02,454
- Thank you.
- 42
- 00:03:32,458 --> 00:03:36,372
- - Oh, so "The Times" have been onto me.
- - Fresh paint!
- 43
- 00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:38,457
- When was the last time you saw that?
- 44
- 00:03:38,583 --> 00:03:39,664
- Oh...
- 45
- 00:03:39,792 --> 00:03:42,864
- One might almost believe
- the war is really over.
- 46
- 00:03:43,792 --> 00:03:45,374
- Yes, they want you to do
- an article
- 47
- 00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:46,707
- about reading.
- 48
- 00:03:46,833 --> 00:03:51,077
- No. Sidney, no. I don't think
- I'm much up for any more Izzy.
- 49
- 00:03:51,208 --> 00:03:53,495
- Actually, they want Juliet Ashton.
- 50
- 00:03:53,625 --> 00:03:55,457
- It's your own voice this time.
- I've said yes.
- 51
- 00:03:55,583 --> 00:03:58,041
- Huh! Have you?
- 52
- 00:03:58,167 --> 00:04:00,659
- Well, you might have said no,
- and I make better decisions.
- 53
- 00:04:00,792 --> 00:04:03,284
- So, your book tour starts Monday week.
- Bath to Yorkshire.
- 54
- 00:04:03,417 --> 00:04:05,500
- "The Times" will fill the gap nicely...
- 55
- 00:04:06,875 --> 00:04:08,787
- There we are.
- 56
- 00:04:08,917 --> 00:04:12,115
- Oh, speaking of which, here we are.
- 57
- 00:04:12,250 --> 00:04:13,286
- Our stop.
- 58
- 00:04:14,792 --> 00:04:16,328
- Thank you.
- 59
- 00:04:17,417 --> 00:04:18,908
- - Miss Ashton?
- - Yes?
- 60
- 00:04:19,042 --> 00:04:21,204
- Have you always wanted
- to be a writer?
- 61
- 00:04:21,333 --> 00:04:22,494
- Always, yes.
- 62
- 00:04:22,625 --> 00:04:26,790
- It's the perfect job.
- Sitting, indoors, always near a teapot.
- 63
- 00:04:29,167 --> 00:04:30,783
- It has its ups and downs.
- 64
- 00:04:30,917 --> 00:04:35,036
- My first book, "A Critical Biography
- of Anne Brontë", sold only...
- 65
- 00:04:35,167 --> 00:04:36,499
- How many copies, Sidney?
- 66
- 00:04:37,083 --> 00:04:40,326
- - My publisher, Mr Sidney Stark.
- - Twenty-eight copies.
- 67
- 00:04:41,458 --> 00:04:43,745
- Worldwide.
- 68
- 00:04:43,875 --> 00:04:47,164
- Why Izzy Bickerstaff?
- Why not write under your real name?
- 69
- 00:04:49,375 --> 00:04:53,198
- Erm... I'm not sure
- which came to me first,
- 70
- 00:04:53,333 --> 00:04:56,076
- Izzy's name or his voice.
- 71
- 00:04:56,208 --> 00:04:59,906
- In either case, they both seemed
- to suit the tone of the task.
- 72
- 00:05:00,042 --> 00:05:01,578
- Much better than my own.
- 73
- 00:05:01,708 --> 00:05:03,825
- Are you working on a new book?
- 74
- 00:05:03,958 --> 00:05:05,870
- Well, I'm not sure
- I'd call Izzy a book
- 75
- 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,538
- as much as a collection
- of faintly amusing essays.
- 76
- 00:05:11,083 --> 00:05:12,915
- Yes, I am.
- 77
- 00:05:13,958 --> 00:05:17,451
- English foibles.
- Er, a miscellany of English absurdity.
- 78
- 00:05:17,583 --> 00:05:21,907
- For example, there's a London society
- for public decency...
- 79
- 00:05:22,833 --> 00:05:26,326
- which advocates trousers for horses.
- 80
- 00:05:40,875 --> 00:05:46,496
- Oh. A pleasure to meet you, Miss Ashton.
- A delight. I'm such a huge fan.
- 81
- 00:05:46,625 --> 00:05:48,287
- Oh. Thank you.
- 82
- 00:05:48,417 --> 00:05:51,706
- Oh, poor old Izzy.
- Had no use for a war, did he?
- 83
- 00:05:52,333 --> 00:05:54,370
- Only wanted to be left alone
- with his pint.
- 84
- 00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:56,708
- Here we are.
- 85
- 00:05:57,625 --> 00:06:03,075
- Quite frankly, Izzy Bickerstaff's why
- you get first dibs here, Miss Ashton.
- 86
- 00:06:03,208 --> 00:06:05,621
- But you mustn't dally. No.
- 87
- 00:06:05,750 --> 00:06:09,664
- It's sure to go in a flash.
- 88
- 00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:49,036
- Father's paperweight.
- 89
- 00:06:49,167 --> 00:06:52,001
- Juliet. Juliet.
- 90
- 00:06:52,708 --> 00:06:55,906
- Where are you?
- Come back from the edge!
- 91
- 00:07:00,125 --> 00:07:01,411
- It's all right.
- 92
- 00:07:05,500 --> 00:07:07,241
- Pure crystal.
- 93
- 00:07:08,167 --> 00:07:10,500
- Oh, yes. Yes, that's very nice.
- 94
- 00:07:11,333 --> 00:07:12,619
- Do you...
- 95
- 00:07:13,458 --> 00:07:15,415
- see the crystal, Juliet?
- 96
- 00:07:16,958 --> 00:07:18,290
- Lovely.
- 97
- 00:07:19,250 --> 00:07:21,958
- Wonderful view
- of Kensington Gardens.
- 98
- 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,662
- Albert Hall round the corner.
- 99
- 00:07:25,667 --> 00:07:27,784
- It's a steal at this price.
- 100
- 00:07:29,375 --> 00:07:30,491
- It is beautiful.
- 101
- 00:07:30,625 --> 00:07:33,368
- I knew you'd love it.
- 102
- 00:07:34,500 --> 00:07:36,787
- I'm terribly sorry.
- 103
- 00:07:41,417 --> 00:07:43,625
- At long last you can afford
- something smart. Rejoice.
- 104
- 00:07:43,750 --> 00:07:45,161
- I feel a complete fraud here.
- 105
- 00:07:45,292 --> 00:07:48,615
- Juliet, you really do need something better
- than a poky bedsit in Battersea,
- 106
- 00:07:48,750 --> 00:07:50,992
- with three suitcases and a typewriter.
- 107
- 00:07:51,125 --> 00:07:53,492
- - I realise.
- - Oh, I see...
- 108
- 00:07:54,125 --> 00:07:55,957
- Poor thing! You feel
- you haven't suffered enough.
- 109
- 00:07:56,083 --> 00:07:58,291
- I expect not.
- 110
- 00:07:58,417 --> 00:08:03,037
- Well, far be it for me to relieve you
- of your solemn duty, but I'll tell you what...
- 111
- 00:08:03,167 --> 00:08:07,116
- We will buy new flats for everyone else
- in London who was bombed out,
- 112
- 00:08:07,250 --> 00:08:10,368
- just as soon as Izzy hits number one.
- Will that make it better?
- 113
- 00:08:10,500 --> 00:08:13,948
- It is a strong start.
- 114
- 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,491
- This could be a proper home.
- 115
- 00:08:19,042 --> 00:08:21,159
- It is a proper home, Sidney.
- 116
- 00:08:21,708 --> 00:08:23,074
- It's just not mine.
- 117
- 00:08:36,458 --> 00:08:38,871
- - Excuse me.
- - Hey, come on, don't be shy!
- 118
- 00:08:43,958 --> 00:08:45,449
- Coming through.
- 119
- 00:08:47,542 --> 00:08:50,990
- You'll need an enormous window
- to put your desk in front of.
- 120
- 00:08:51,125 --> 00:08:54,084
- You don't get enough sun as it is.
- Waiter, I'll keep the bottle.
- 121
- 00:08:54,875 --> 00:08:58,539
- Fireplace to keep you warm...
- when you're not with me.
- 122
- 00:08:58,667 --> 00:09:00,875
- Markham Reynolds.
- 123
- 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,243
- Diplomat and clairvoyant.
- You're a wonder.
- 124
- 00:09:04,375 --> 00:09:05,491
- At your service.
- 125
- 00:09:06,875 --> 00:09:08,537
- Right.
- 126
- 00:09:08,667 --> 00:09:12,160
- Now, what good is a window
- if I haven't given you a view?
- 127
- 00:09:25,667 --> 00:09:26,703
- Watch this.
- 128
- 00:09:43,917 --> 00:09:45,453
- Mr Reynolds.
- 129
- 00:09:45,583 --> 00:09:48,781
- - I've asked you to stop.
- - Oh God, you've been caught.
- 130
- 00:09:48,917 --> 00:09:50,749
- Yet still you persist. Look at this.
- 131
- 00:09:50,875 --> 00:09:54,494
- Do you imagine I've got a storeroom just
- brimming with vases for my tenants to use?
- 132
- 00:09:54,625 --> 00:09:56,491
- I apologise again, Mrs Burns.
- 133
- 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,241
- Times are tough.
- 134
- 00:09:58,375 --> 00:10:00,367
- Florists, they need the work.
- 135
- 00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:03,868
- Flowers. Hope she knows
- what a lucky girl she is.
- 136
- 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,198
- - Come on.
- - Goodbye, Mrs Burns.
- 137
- 00:10:09,125 --> 00:10:10,912
- - Goodnight.
- - Goodnight.
- 138
- 00:10:12,625 --> 00:10:14,207
- - Your mail.
- - Ah...
- 139
- 00:10:14,333 --> 00:10:15,699
- - Thank you.
- - And your flowers.
- 140
- 00:10:15,833 --> 00:10:19,952
- Oh... Oh, please keep the flowers
- for yourself, Mrs Burns, won't you?
- 141
- 00:10:20,083 --> 00:10:22,075
- Oh, thank you.
- 142
- 00:10:22,208 --> 00:10:25,701
- And no more typing, now, Miss Ashton.
- It's well after ten.
- 143
- 00:10:25,833 --> 00:10:26,949
- OK.
- 144
- 00:10:27,083 --> 00:10:30,656
- Sound of that clatter.
- Worse than gunfire!
- 145
- 00:10:36,208 --> 00:10:38,450
- Forwarded from Oakley Street.
- 146
- 00:10:43,708 --> 00:10:46,166
- "Dear Miss Ashton,
- my name is Dawsey Adams.
- 147

- "I live on my farm
- on the island of Guernsey."

- "I know of you
- because I have an old book,

- Mrs B? Thank you.
- 318
- 00:24:45,375 --> 00:24:49,995
- Juliet, you cannot go to a book club meeting
- on the island of Guernsey.
- 319
- 00:24:50,125 --> 00:24:52,037
- It's a leap of faith
- they'll even let me in.
- 320
- 00:24:52,167 --> 00:24:53,874
- You're reading in Cambridge, Friday.
- 321
- 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,037
- But the Society, they meet on a Friday.
- 322
- 00:24:56,167 --> 00:24:58,750
- I can't wait. I'll only be gone
- the weekend, back Monday.
- 323
- 00:24:58,875 --> 00:25:01,947
- - Edinburgh.
- - You're in Edinburgh Monday!
- 324
- 00:25:02,083 --> 00:25:05,622
- I don't know why we provide you
- with an itinerary, I really don't.
- 325
- 00:25:05,750 --> 00:25:06,866
- I don't. I just don't.
- 326
- 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,663
- Well, this is your fault.
- You said "yes" to "The Times".
- 327
- 00:25:09,792 --> 00:25:11,658
- Excuse me, my fault?
- 328
- 00:25:11,792 --> 00:25:17,038
- Sidney, what books,
- what reading did for these people,
- 329
- 00:25:17,167 --> 00:25:19,329
- finally, I'll have
- something serious to write.
- 330
- 00:25:19,458 --> 00:25:23,907
- Hmm. This wouldn't be just to get out of
- reading Izzy in Cambridge, would it?
- 331
- 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,289
- You're not... You're not running away?
- 332
- 00:25:29,417 --> 00:25:31,374
- Ha-ha-ha! You're too funny.
- 333
- 00:25:32,375 --> 00:25:35,573
- Well, I can't imagine Mark
- would let you get very far anyway.
- 334
- 00:25:35,708 --> 00:25:37,745
- - "Let me."
- - Hm-hmm.
- 335
- 00:25:49,667 --> 00:25:51,033
- You have everything you need?
- 336
- 00:25:51,167 --> 00:25:54,535
- Erm... Yes, I do.
- 337
- 00:25:55,375 --> 00:25:58,573
- - Say that again.
- - What? I have everything.
- 338
- 00:25:58,708 --> 00:26:02,076
- Mark, it's the English Channel,
- not the China Seas.
- 339
- 00:26:02,208 --> 00:26:06,498
- Say, "I do." Or simply say, "Yes."
- 340
- 00:26:08,542 --> 00:26:09,874
- What?
- 341
- 00:26:12,708 --> 00:26:14,870
- Juliet...
- 342
- 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,333
- Let me give you your perfect home.
- 343
- 00:26:18,125 --> 00:26:19,582
- I already know mine's with you.
- 344
- 00:26:19,708 --> 00:26:22,701
- Whether it's here or New York
- or the North Pole.
- 345
- 00:26:25,333 --> 00:26:27,871
- I wanna make that home together. Ours.
- 346
- 00:26:31,542 --> 00:26:33,909
- Say you'll marry me, Juliet.
- 347
- 00:26:40,042 --> 00:26:41,408
- Yes.
- 348
- 00:26:41,542 --> 00:26:43,499
- I know we've only been together
- for six months,
- 349
- 00:26:43,625 --> 00:26:45,833
- - but they've been the happiest...
- - Yes!
- 350
- 00:26:45,958 --> 00:26:47,449
- Yes!
- 351
- 00:26:49,708 --> 00:26:52,780
- Congratulations!
- 352
- 00:26:52,917 --> 00:26:54,203
- Erm...
- 353
- 00:26:54,333 --> 00:26:56,040
- If you just...
- 354
- 00:28:27,792 --> 00:28:29,283
- I'll get another load.
- 355
- 00:28:41,667 --> 00:28:44,739
- Excuse me?
- I was looking for a place to stay.
- 356
- 00:28:45,333 --> 00:28:46,915
- Erm...
- 357
- 00:28:47,042 --> 00:28:48,829
- Peter, watch it!
- 358
- 00:28:48,958 --> 00:28:50,494
- Sorry.
- 359
- 00:28:51,708 --> 00:28:54,621
- Try at the post office.
- They should be able to help you out.
- 360
- 00:28:55,750 --> 00:28:57,161
- - Right.
- - Heads up.
- 361
- 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,457
- Sorry, below!
- 362
- 00:29:04,833 --> 00:29:07,621
- Tha... Thank you. I think...
- 363
- 00:29:15,750 --> 00:29:17,457
- Thank you.
- 364
- 00:29:18,250 --> 00:29:20,958
- - Oh, hello.
- - Who is it?
- 365
- 00:29:21,083 --> 00:29:23,325
- - It's a miss.
- - What's she want?
- 366
- 00:29:23,458 --> 00:29:25,245
- Have I had a chance to ask?
- 367
- 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,368
- I was sent
- from The Crown... Hotel.
- 368
- 00:29:29,500 --> 00:29:33,289
- - They're closed. Roof's gone.
- - Yes, er, I know.
- 369
- 00:29:33,417 --> 00:29:36,740
- A man over there said that
- you might be able to help with the...
- 370
- 00:29:36,875 --> 00:29:38,787
- Does he come out
- from behind there?
- 371
- 00:29:38,917 --> 00:29:42,081
- Not a lot of options at the moment,
- places to stay.
- 372
- 00:29:42,208 --> 00:29:45,747
- Er, least of them
- is with Charlotte Stimple.
- 373
- 00:29:47,375 --> 00:29:52,291
- She lets rooms, sometimes.
- Keeps a clean house.
- 374
- 00:29:53,250 --> 00:29:56,618
- Er, Eli can take you up there,
- if you like.
- 375
- 00:29:56,750 --> 00:29:59,083
- Oh, I wouldn't want him
- to have to make a special trip.
- 376
- 00:29:59,208 --> 00:30:01,416
- Well, he has mail to deliver, anyway.
- 377
- 00:30:01,542 --> 00:30:04,034
- Ah. Well, thank you, then...
- 378
- 00:30:04,167 --> 00:30:05,578
- Eben Ramsey.
- 379
- 00:30:06,292 --> 00:30:09,660
- Eben Ramsey? The Eben Ramsey?
- 380
- 00:30:09,792 --> 00:30:12,580
- Inventor of the potato peel pie?
- 381
- 00:30:12,708 --> 00:30:15,542
- But you're why I've come!
- 382
- 00:30:15,667 --> 00:30:18,330
- Him? You came for his pie?
- 383
- 00:30:18,458 --> 00:30:23,203
- Er, no, I came for the meeting...
- of your society.
- 384
- 00:30:23,333 --> 00:30:25,825
- I've been corresponding
- with a friend of yours, Mr Adams.
- 385
- 00:30:25,958 --> 00:30:28,666
- - The writer? You're the writer?
- - Yes.
- 386
- 00:30:29,333 --> 00:30:31,950
- Yes, I am. I'm Juliet Ashton.
- 387
- 00:30:33,833 --> 00:30:37,372
- - You're beautiful.
- - Oh, thank you.
- 388
- 00:30:38,083 --> 00:30:42,498
- Goodness! Eli, get the cart.
- He'll take you right up to Charlotte.
- 389
- 00:30:42,625 --> 00:30:45,368
- I'll call round,
- let everybody know you're here.
- 390
- 00:30:46,417 --> 00:30:49,785
- A real writer. Come to see us.
- 391
- 00:31:10,375 --> 00:31:11,707
- Oh!
- 392
- 00:31:32,875 --> 00:31:35,037
- Five and six a night.
- 393
- 00:31:35,167 --> 00:31:37,033
- Wonderful.
- 394
- 00:31:44,667 --> 00:31:46,954
- In advance, if you don't mind.
- 395
- 00:31:48,292 --> 00:31:50,079
- Oh. Of course.
- 396
- 00:31:55,917 --> 00:31:58,079
- What brings you from London?
- 397
- 00:32:01,417 --> 00:32:04,865
- - And the bathroom is...?
- - It's just down the hall.
- 398
- 00:32:07,083 --> 00:32:09,325
- - Towels are just...
- - Oh, I see it.
- 399
- 00:32:09,458 --> 00:32:11,916
- - Thank you again.
- - Oh!
- 400
- 00:32:12,042 --> 00:32:14,329
- I need your ration coupons
- if you'd like milk with your tea.
- 401
- 00:32:14,458 --> 00:32:17,246
- Black tea is lovely, thank you.
- 402
- 00:33:26,042 --> 00:33:27,704
- Hello.
- 403
- 00:33:40,542 --> 00:33:43,285
- Mrs Maugery?
- Good evening, I'm Ju...
- 404
- 00:33:43,417 --> 00:33:46,285
- Miss Ashton.
- Yes, we're expecting you.
- 405
- 00:33:47,042 --> 00:33:49,659
- - Rather suddenly.
- - Oh, I know.
- 406
- 00:33:49,792 --> 00:33:52,034
- I do hope I'm not imposing.
- 407
- 00:33:53,208 --> 00:33:54,915
- Well, here you are.
- 408
- 00:33:55,583 --> 00:33:57,040
- Come in.
- 409
- 00:33:58,083 --> 00:34:00,291
- Thank you.
- 410
- 00:34:01,042 --> 00:34:02,283
- Erm, Miss Ashton.
- 411
- 00:34:02,417 --> 00:34:05,740
- Oh, Juliet, please. I'm afraid
- I've made a mistake in inviting...
- 412
- 00:34:05,875 --> 00:34:08,208
- No, no, no, no.
- We are thrilled to have you.
- 413
- 00:34:09,875 --> 00:34:12,709
- The last real-life author we had
- was Clara Saussey.
- 414
- 00:34:12,833 --> 00:34:15,246
- She read her cookbook to us back in '44.
- 415
- 00:34:15,375 --> 00:34:18,368
- Barely escaped with her life.
- 416
- 00:34:19,250 --> 00:34:21,412
- We were famished.
- 417
- 00:34:21,542 --> 00:34:23,408
- I'm Isola Pribby.
- 418
- 00:34:23,542 --> 00:34:26,080
- So happy to make your acquaintance.
- 419
- 00:34:27,042 --> 00:34:29,580
- Erm, I'm... so happy to join you.
- 420
- 00:34:29,708 --> 00:34:30,915
- Erm...
- 421
- 00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:34,958
- - Has Mr Adams arrived yet?
- - Dawsey?
- 422
- 00:34:35,083 --> 00:34:37,200
- I've yet to meet him.
- 423
- 00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:39,957
- You've conjured him.
- 424
- 00:34:41,583 --> 00:34:43,791
- And your society's founder...
- 425
- 00:34:43,917 --> 00:34:46,455
- Erm, your society's founder,
- Elizabeth McKenna?
- 426
- 00:34:46,583 --> 00:34:49,417
- - I'm so looking forward to meeting her.
- - You won't be meeting her.
- 427
- 00:34:50,125 --> 00:34:51,161
- Oh...
- 428
- 00:34:52,250 --> 00:34:54,333
- She's off-island at present.
- 429
- 00:34:55,333 --> 00:34:56,494
- Fair Juliet.
- 430
- 00:34:58,333 --> 00:34:59,949
- - Ah...
- - We meet again.
- 431
- 00:35:00,083 --> 00:35:01,415
- Eben.
- 432
- 00:35:24,500 --> 00:35:26,287
- So, who's presenting tonight?
- 433
- 00:35:26,417 --> 00:35:28,124
- - Why, you are, of course.
- - Me?
- 434
- 00:35:28,250 --> 00:35:30,583
- Yeah, we were hoping you'd read
- 435
- 00:35:30,708 --> 00:35:33,291
- at least the first chapter for us.
- 436
- 00:35:33,417 --> 00:35:36,080
- None of us having had a chance yet
- to read it for ourselves.
- 437
- 00:35:36,208 --> 00:35:39,576
- - But we can't start without...
- - Dawsey!
- 438
- 00:35:43,333 --> 00:35:46,121
- - Erm, hello.
- - Hello.
- 439
- 00:35:49,458 --> 00:35:52,166
- - Dawsey Adams.
- - Juliet Ashton.
- 440
- 00:35:52,292 --> 00:35:55,785
- - You two have met.
- - In a way, yes.
- 441
- 00:35:55,917 --> 00:35:57,533
- Earlier.
- 442
- 00:35:57,667 --> 00:36:00,910
- Nearly killed her
- on the steps of The Crown today.
- 443
- 00:36:01,042 --> 00:36:03,125
- Oh, I was thinking in a past life.
- 444
- 00:36:05,333 --> 00:36:07,165
- But this afternoon does make sense.
- 445
- 00:36:09,708 --> 00:36:11,040
- Thank you again for the books.
- 446
- 00:36:13,250 --> 00:36:14,331
- Thank you.
- 447
- 00:36:14,458 --> 00:36:17,201
- Miss Ashton was just getting ready
- to read to us from her book.
- 448
- 00:36:17,333 --> 00:36:18,369
- Yes, well,
- 449
- 00:36:18,500 --> 00:36:20,617
- - let's have a crack at her then, shall we?
- - Right.
- 450
- 00:36:24,542 --> 00:36:25,578
- Fair Juliet.
- 451
- 00:36:26,583 --> 00:36:27,915
- Here?
- 452
- 00:36:29,208 --> 00:36:32,326
- Best of luck.
- See you on the other side.
- 453
- 00:36:38,875 --> 00:36:40,082
- Right, erm...
- 454
- 00:36:40,208 --> 00:36:41,995
- The presenter usually stands.
- 455
- 00:36:42,125 --> 00:36:43,286
- Oh.
- 456
- 00:36:49,250 --> 00:36:50,286
- Begin.
- 457
- 00:36:57,667 --> 00:37:01,206
- Anne Brontë. A Life.
- 458
- 00:37:01,333 --> 00:37:04,405
- You think Anne Brontë
- is better than Charlotte?
- 459
- 00:37:04,542 --> 00:37:06,158
- - I agree.
- - I do not.
- 460
- 00:37:06,292 --> 00:37:11,367
- "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall" a more
- important book than "Wuthering Heights"?
- 461
- 00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:13,241
- - No, no, no...
- - The idea!
- 462
- 00:37:13,375 --> 00:37:15,287
- - No, not better.
- - I agree with you.
- 463
- 00:37:15,417 --> 00:37:18,455
- I'm saying that Anne
- is more modern than Emily.
- 464
- 00:37:18,583 --> 00:37:20,666
- Particularly with respect
- to the status of women.
- 465
- 00:37:20,792 --> 00:37:23,079
- More so than Charlotte Brontë
- when she wrote "Jane Eyre"?
- 466
- 00:37:23,208 --> 00:37:25,666
- Very doubtful.
- Doubtful, doubtful, doubtful.
- 467
- 00:37:25,792 --> 00:37:30,162
- "Do you think because I am poor,
- obscure, plain and little,
- 468
- 00:37:30,292 --> 00:37:33,615
- "that I am soulless and heartless?
- You think wrong!
- 469
- 00:37:33,750 --> 00:37:37,198
- "I have as much soul as you!
- And full as much heart!"
- 470
- 00:37:37,333 --> 00:37:39,996
- Oh! You did that beautifully!
- 471
- 00:37:40,125 --> 00:37:42,037
- I do love "Jane Eyre".
- 472
- 00:37:42,167 --> 00:37:43,533
- - As do I!
- - "Jane Eyre"?
- 473
- 00:37:43,667 --> 00:37:45,875
- As do I! And while Jane's assertion,
- 474
- 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:50,074
- "I have as much soul as you,"
- was remarkable, directed to a gentleman,
- 475
- 00:37:50,208 --> 00:37:53,906
- it only begins to get at the idea
- of equality between them.
- 476
- 00:37:54,042 --> 00:37:58,161
- In "Wildfell Hall", Anne Brontë laid bare
- the essential imbalance of power
- 477
- 00:37:58,292 --> 00:38:01,456
- between men and women
- in the suffocating hierarchal structure
- 478
- 00:38:01,583 --> 00:38:03,245
- of Victorian marriage.
- 479
- 00:38:03,375 --> 00:38:07,119
- She challenged the conventional thinking
- of an entire society
- 480
- 00:38:07,250 --> 00:38:09,458
- and changed people's minds.
- 481
- 00:38:11,708 --> 00:38:13,665
- - Well done.
- - Oh, I had no idea.
- 482
- 00:38:13,792 --> 00:38:16,125
- Anne Brontë, she did quite a bit,
- didn't she?
- 483
- 00:38:16,250 --> 00:38:18,116
- Well done, Miss Ashton.
- 484
- 00:38:18,250 --> 00:38:19,536
- - You kept going!
- - Splendid!
- 485
- 00:38:19,667 --> 00:38:20,874
- Against all the arguments!
- 486
- 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,540
- But I'm afraid you've yet to have
- the full experience.
- 487
- 00:38:25,667 --> 00:38:28,501
- - Oh!
- - I find that difficult to believe.
- 488
- 00:38:28,625 --> 00:38:31,459
- That's the second attack
- you've survived today. It's good.
- 489
- 00:38:31,583 --> 00:38:35,873
- - An authentic potato peel pie.
- - Oh!
- 490
- 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,832
- Original recipe.
- 491
- 00:38:37,958 --> 00:38:40,701
- Er, no butter, no flour.
- 492
- 00:38:40,833 --> 00:38:44,281
- No, er... Well, it's potatoes
- 493
- 00:38:44,417 --> 00:38:46,329
- and potato peelings.
- 494
- 00:38:46,458 --> 00:38:48,575
- You'll want this gin quick after.
- 495
- 00:38:49,708 --> 00:38:50,744
- Oh...
- 496
- 00:38:50,875 --> 00:38:53,367
- - A little taste.
- - Is this safe?
- 497
- 00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:56,698
- - It's just potatoes.
- - Oh, erm...
- 498
- 00:39:01,542 --> 00:39:03,955
- Quick. Here.
- 499
- 00:39:08,875 --> 00:39:12,619
- It... It's the worst!
- 500
- 00:39:12,750 --> 00:39:16,289
- - It's just awful!
- - It's horrible. Horrible.
- 501
- 00:39:17,042 --> 00:39:21,207
- - The gin's very good though!
- - Oh! She likes mine!
- 502
- 00:39:21,333 --> 00:39:26,033
- Ooh. Still, Mr Ramsey, I would love
- to get the recipe from you if I could.
- 503
- 00:39:26,167 --> 00:39:27,283
- She's mad drunk already.
- 504
- 00:39:27,417 --> 00:39:32,208
- It would be lovely to include in the article.
- People adore that sort of detail.
- 505
- 00:39:32,333 --> 00:39:34,074
- Article?
- 506
- 00:39:35,042 --> 00:39:36,078
- What article?
- 507
- 00:39:37,083 --> 00:39:40,952
- Oh, forgive me.
- I've gotten ahead of myself.
- 508
- 00:39:41,083 --> 00:39:43,996
- "The Times" has asked me
- to write an article on reading
- 509
- 00:39:44,125 --> 00:39:46,913
- and I'd like very much
- to write about you.
- 510
- 00:39:47,042 --> 00:39:49,375
- All of you. The Society.
- 511
- 00:39:49,958 --> 00:39:52,450
- You painted such a vivid story
- in your letters.
- 512
- 00:39:53,292 --> 00:39:54,624
- You came to write about us?
- 513
- 00:39:54,750 --> 00:39:56,707
- It's for "The London Times".
- 514
- 00:39:57,875 --> 00:40:00,413
- I mean, only with all your permission,
- of course.
- 515
- 00:40:00,542 --> 00:40:03,080
- I'm sure there are
- more interesting subjects to write on.
- 516
- 00:40:03,208 --> 00:40:04,744
- Oh, no, but your...
- 517
- 00:40:04,875 --> 00:40:08,118
- The story of your group
- and how it was formed, I'm sure that...
- 518
- 00:40:08,250 --> 00:40:11,243
- - so many would find it as inspiring as I.
- - Oh, I don't think so.
- 519
- 00:40:11,375 --> 00:40:13,583
- - Oh, no, I'm certain they would.
- - No!
- 520
- 00:40:15,750 --> 00:40:19,949
- I'm sure we're not interested in inspiring
- the readers of "The London Times".
- 521
- 00:40:21,042 --> 00:40:22,078
- Thank you all the same.
- 522
- 00:40:23,417 --> 00:40:25,033
- I see, I'm sorry. I...
- 523
- 00:40:26,625 --> 00:40:28,708
- I'm sorry to press,
- but I'd like to understand.
- 524
- 00:40:28,833 --> 00:40:30,699
- But how could you understand?
- 525
- 00:40:33,542 --> 00:40:35,078
- And, er, and...
- 526
- 00:40:37,792 --> 00:40:41,081
- And people... people wouldn't.
- 527
- 00:40:46,375 --> 00:40:48,992
- I'm sorry you've come all this way
- for nothing.
- 528
- 00:40:57,292 --> 00:40:58,828
- I had a dream.
- 529
- 00:40:59,833 --> 00:41:01,324
- Come here.
- 530
- 00:41:09,667 --> 00:41:13,365
- - And who's this?
- - This is Kit. Elizabeth's daughter.
- 531
- 00:41:15,292 --> 00:41:17,124
- Daddy...
- 532
- 00:41:17,250 --> 00:41:19,287
- Can we go home now?
- 533
- 00:41:21,042 --> 00:41:22,328
- Yes.
- 534
- 00:41:22,458 --> 00:41:24,165
- We're going soon.
- 535
- 00:41:36,208 --> 00:41:38,291
- I'm so sorry
- if I embarrassed you.
- 536
- 00:41:39,292 --> 00:41:41,705
- I feel I owe you an enormous apology.
- 537
- 00:41:41,833 --> 00:41:43,665
- An apology for what?
- 538
- 00:41:45,292 --> 00:41:48,410
- For assuming your friends were mine,
- 539
- 00:41:48,542 --> 00:41:53,242
- making myself the uninvited guest
- and a complete ass.
- 540
- 00:41:55,208 --> 00:41:56,699
- And for imagining everyone would think
- 541
- 00:41:56,833 --> 00:41:59,450
- being featured in "The London Times"
- was just a glorious gift.
- 542
- 00:41:59,583 --> 00:42:03,281
- Amelia is a private person.
- I wouldn't give it too much thought.
- 543
- 00:42:04,250 --> 00:42:08,540
- You sent two books to a stranger.
- You can't be all bad, Miss Ashton.
- 544
- 00:42:09,792 --> 00:42:12,000
- I'd feel much better
- if you called me Juliet.
- 545
- 00:42:15,417 --> 00:42:21,118
- Thank you for coming and for letting me
- put a face to the name, Juliet.
- 546
- 00:42:21,875 --> 00:42:24,709
- Oh. Thank you.
- 547
- 00:42:26,083 --> 00:42:27,790
- Goodnight, then.
- 548
- 00:42:27,917 --> 00:42:29,453
- <i>Gniet.</i>
- 549
- 00:42:35,375 --> 00:42:36,707
- Huh!
- 550
- 00:42:45,542 --> 00:42:49,786
- I believe I mentioned
- I liked to lock my door by nine.
- 551
- 00:42:49,917 --> 00:42:51,499
- Oh, sorry.
- 552
- 00:42:51,625 --> 00:42:55,244
- - I... I hope I didn't keep you up.
- - You did.
- 553
- 00:42:55,375 --> 00:42:59,289
- - 10:15 you came in.
- - I was at Amelia Maugery's,
- 554
- 00:42:59,417 --> 00:43:01,454
- meeting with the reading group.
- 555
- 00:43:02,542 --> 00:43:05,614
- - There was such a lot to talk about.
- - I know who you were with.
- 556
- 00:43:05,750 --> 00:43:07,616
- They're never short of talk.
- 557
- 00:43:07,750 --> 00:43:11,573
- You just be wise not to believe
- everything they tell you.
- 558
- 00:43:12,708 --> 00:43:13,949
- Erm, I don't understand.
- 559
- 00:43:14,083 --> 00:43:17,747
- There's more to that story
- than they like to let on.
- 560
- 00:43:18,583 --> 00:43:20,700
- More to what story?
- 561
- 00:43:22,083 --> 00:43:25,406
- Miss Ashton,
- I have never been one to gossip.
- 562
- 00:43:25,542 --> 00:43:29,081
- So the less said on any of it,
- the better.
- 563
- 00:43:29,208 --> 00:43:30,619
- What...
- 564
- 00:43:35,542 --> 00:43:37,374
- 'Well, you'll be happy to learn
- 565
- 00:43:37,500 --> 00:43:39,787
- 'I did read before an audience
- last night, after all.'
- 566
- 00:43:39,917 --> 00:43:43,035
- Oh yes? Your farmer-in-the-dell
- put you to work, did he?
- 567
- 00:43:43,167 --> 00:43:45,329
- 'How did Izzy play
- in the Channel Islands?'
- 568
- 00:43:45,458 --> 00:43:48,371
- Actually, they requested that I read
- from the Brontë biography.
- 569
- 00:43:48,500 --> 00:43:50,287
- 'Blimey, wherever did they dig one up?'
- 570
- 00:43:50,417 --> 00:43:52,158
- It was a very big hit.
- 571
- 00:43:52,292 --> 00:43:54,204
- Oh, I'm sure it was.
- 572
- 00:43:54,333 --> 00:43:57,041
- Oh, stone the crows, Mrs B.
- Good morning.
- 573
- 00:43:57,167 --> 00:43:58,874
- But, erm...
- 574
- 00:44:00,042 --> 00:44:02,079
- They don't want me
- writing about them.
- 575
- 00:44:02,208 --> 00:44:04,996
- 'Oh, a tremendous hit!
- I get you back early now.'
- 576
- 00:44:05,125 --> 00:44:07,208
- Are you on your way, darling?
- 577
- 00:44:07,333 --> 00:44:10,405
- - 'W-Well, er...'
- - Oh, Mrs B, rebook Edinburgh
- 578
- 00:44:10,542 --> 00:44:12,829
- - for a week Tu...
- - 'No, no, Sidney.'
- 579
- 00:44:13,458 --> 00:44:16,075
- - I'm still here.
- - 'What on earth for?'
- 580
- 00:44:17,083 --> 00:44:18,494
- Listen, erm...
- 581
- 00:44:19,125 --> 00:44:22,618
- - Sidney, I have other news.
- - 'All right.'
- 582
- 00:44:22,750 --> 00:44:25,709
- - I'm bracing myself for it.
- - 'Er...
- 583
- 00:44:26,667 --> 00:44:28,033
- 'I...
- 584
- 00:44:28,750 --> 00:44:31,117
- 'I hope you won't mind giving me away.'
- 585
- 00:44:31,917 --> 00:44:32,953
- What's that?
- 586
- 00:44:33,083 --> 00:44:35,075
- I'm engaged.
- 587
- 00:44:37,125 --> 00:44:40,539
- To be married. Mark proposed.
- 588
- 00:44:42,167 --> 00:44:43,499
- 'Sidney?
- 589
- 00:44:45,958 --> 00:44:47,540
- 'Sidney?'
- 590
- 00:44:49,542 --> 00:44:51,033
- Yes, darling, hello.
- 591
- 00:44:51,167 --> 00:44:55,707
- Erm, congratulations.
- That's marvellous news. The best news.
- 592
- 00:44:57,833 --> 00:45:00,905
- - Are you happy?
- - 'Yes. Happy.'
- 593
- 00:45:01,542 --> 00:45:02,578
- Are you sure?
- 594
- 00:45:02,708 --> 00:45:07,282
- - Yes, Sidney! I'm very happy.
- - 'All right, I'm very happy too, then.'
- 595
- 00:45:08,042 --> 00:45:11,285
- - And Mark? Mark happy?
- - 'Yes.'
- 596
- 00:45:12,083 --> 00:45:15,076
- - 'Mark there with you?'
- - No, he...
- 597
- 00:45:17,083 --> 00:45:19,871
- Well, he sprung it on me at the boat.
- I came alone.
- 598
- 00:45:21,417 --> 00:45:24,740
- Sid... Sidney, hello? Sidney?
- 599
- 00:45:28,250 --> 00:45:30,412
- One and 11, please.
- 600
- 00:45:38,083 --> 00:45:40,166
- Are you enjoying the Kipling?
- 601
- 00:45:40,292 --> 00:45:41,908
- I am. I'm still catching up.
- 602
- 00:45:42,042 --> 00:45:44,079
- Didn't have much school in Dereham.
- 603
- 00:45:44,208 --> 00:45:46,916
- But the Society have taken me in hand.
- 604
- 00:45:47,042 --> 00:45:48,999
- I'll be a genius
- by the end of the year.
- 605
- 00:45:49,125 --> 00:45:50,491
- What were you doing in Dereham?
- 606
- 00:45:50,625 --> 00:45:53,538
- It's where I was sent for the war,
- when they evacuated us kids.
- 607
- 00:45:54,083 --> 00:45:55,824
- Didn't know they evacuated here as well.
- 608
- 00:45:55,958 --> 00:45:57,415
- Right before the occupation,
- 609
- 00:45:57,542 --> 00:46:00,000
- when the Germans
- were just across the water in France.
- 610
- 00:46:00,125 --> 00:46:02,412
- Everyone knew
- they'd be coming here next.
- 611
- 00:46:02,542 --> 00:46:06,081
- We only heard the night before.
- England sent ships.
- 612
- 00:46:09,917 --> 00:46:11,499
- Let's have a look at you.
- 613
- 00:46:14,542 --> 00:46:17,535
- Come here, now. Wait.
- 614
- 00:46:20,333 --> 00:46:22,541
- Move it, please.
- Right the way along.
- 615
- 00:46:24,875 --> 00:46:26,286
- Mind your step.
- 616
- 00:46:29,125 --> 00:46:31,538
- Take a label, please. Labels.
- 617
- 00:46:32,833 --> 00:46:34,040
- Go. Go, go, go.
- 618
- 00:46:34,167 --> 00:46:36,124
- Come on, that's it.
- Quickly now.
- 619
- 00:46:36,250 --> 00:46:38,708
- Come on, everyone.
- Take a label. Keep it safe.
- 620
- 00:46:40,542 --> 00:46:41,532
- Thank you.
- 621
- 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,081
- There.
- 622
- 00:46:53,542 --> 00:46:54,908
- There we go.
- 623
- 00:46:55,833 --> 00:46:58,576
- Ready for your adventure?
- Come with me.
- 624
- 00:46:58,708 --> 00:47:00,165
- Give me your hand.
- 625
- 00:47:01,208 --> 00:47:04,781
- I promise I'll look after your grandfather, Eli.
- Don't worry.
- 626
- 00:47:04,917 --> 00:47:08,490
- Even you can't fight the Germans,
- Miss, when they come.
- 627
- 00:47:08,625 --> 00:47:10,912
- And they might come to England, too.
- 628
- 00:47:12,625 --> 00:47:14,207
- Give me your hand.
- 629
- 00:47:15,625 --> 00:47:20,290
- My father was given this
- in the Great War, for courage.
- 630
- 00:47:21,125 --> 00:47:24,994
- And the thing is, anyone who keeps it close
- can't help but be brave,
- 631
- 00:47:25,125 --> 00:47:27,162
- even when they're scared.
- 632
- 00:47:27,292 --> 00:47:28,453
- Do you feel it?
- 633
- 00:47:30,917 --> 00:47:34,786
- Well, you need to rub it then.
- The magic only starts when it gets warm.
- 634
- 00:47:35,625 --> 00:47:37,491
- I feel it now!
- 635
- 00:47:37,625 --> 00:47:40,083
- That's a good lad.
- Now, you bring that back safe to me.
- 636
- 00:47:41,667 --> 00:47:44,330
- 'Strictly no parents to board.'
- 637
- 00:47:44,458 --> 00:47:47,166
- - There he is.
- - 'Strictly no parents to board.'
- 638
- 00:47:48,833 --> 00:47:50,495
- 'Worst day of the war.
- 639
- 00:47:51,708 --> 00:47:54,200
- 'It nearly broke us, that day.
- 640
- 00:47:55,333 --> 00:47:57,700
- 'When the Germans landed
- a few days later,
- 641
- 00:47:58,958 --> 00:48:00,540
- 'we were only half here.
- 642
- 00:48:02,417 --> 00:48:06,036
- 'Our hearts were already elsewhere.'
- 643
- 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,583
- Cor, it's worn smooth.
- 644
- 00:48:14,708 --> 00:48:18,031
- - I needed a lot of courage.
- - Oh, cheer up, Eli.
- 645
- 00:48:18,167 --> 00:48:19,703
- You'll give it back to her.
- 646
- 00:48:19,833 --> 00:48:22,871
- There's people coming home
- all the time, just like you.
- 647
- 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,083
- Coming home?
- 648
- 00:48:26,417 --> 00:48:28,534
- How long has Elizabeth been gone?
- 649
- 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:33,823
- Oh, what a day that was.
- 650
- 00:48:33,958 --> 00:48:37,406
- Eli was the first boy down the gangway.
- 651
- 00:48:37,542 --> 00:48:41,536
- He'd grown long legs in five years.
- Who would recognise him?
- 652
- 00:48:41,667 --> 00:48:43,659
- Me, I would.
- 653
- 00:48:45,167 --> 00:48:48,285
- Care for a scone? Fresh baked.
- 654
- 00:48:48,417 --> 00:48:51,410
- The Germans arrested her in '44.
- Sent her to the Continent.
- 655
- 00:48:51,542 --> 00:48:53,659
- Arrested her? Why?
- 656
- 00:48:54,625 --> 00:48:56,708
- I don't know. I wasn't there.
- 657
- 00:48:57,750 --> 00:48:59,082
- And they don't say.
- 658
- 00:49:10,167 --> 00:49:16,494
- I was hoping to bribe you for a tour
- in exchange for some of Eben's scones.
- 659
- 00:49:17,167 --> 00:49:21,207
- - Much better than his potato pie.
- - Yes.
- 660
- 00:49:21,667 --> 00:49:24,535
- - I hope so.
- - Come on.
- 661
- 00:49:24,667 --> 00:49:26,124
- Thank you.
- 662
- 00:49:28,708 --> 00:49:30,370
- - Come on!
- - Careful, Kit!
- 663
- 00:49:30,500 --> 00:49:32,287
- - It's OK!
- - Whoa!
- 664
- 00:49:32,417 --> 00:49:33,999
- She knows where she's going.
- 665
- 00:49:34,125 --> 00:49:37,323
- Oh, oh, oh, no!
- 666
- 00:49:44,125 --> 00:49:48,540
- Sorry, I would take my shoes off
- if it weren't for all the wire.
- 667
- 00:49:48,667 --> 00:49:50,408
- Don't you worry about the wire.
- 668
- 00:49:50,542 --> 00:49:53,285
- It's the mines
- you want to be careful of.
- 669
- 00:49:53,417 --> 00:49:54,999
- The mines?
- 670
- 00:49:56,125 --> 00:50:00,290
- I'm sorry.
- Sorry, that's not funny.
- 671
- 00:50:00,417 --> 00:50:01,703
- Oh!
- 672
- 00:50:01,833 --> 00:50:04,120
- That's not funny at all!
- 673
- 00:50:04,250 --> 00:50:08,699
- They did mine the beaches, though.
- The whole perimeter of the island.
- 674
- 00:50:08,833 --> 00:50:11,701
- It took some doing,
- but we finally got it all cleared out.
- 675
- 00:50:12,708 --> 00:50:14,040
- You're safe.
- 676
- 00:50:15,708 --> 00:50:16,869
- Good.
- 677
- 00:50:20,792 --> 00:50:21,873
- What are those?
- 678
- 00:50:22,792 --> 00:50:25,000
- One of the German lookouts.
- 679
- 00:50:25,125 --> 00:50:28,493
- They put them up on every point
- facing out to sea.
- 680
- 00:50:29,250 --> 00:50:32,084
- And they set gun positions
- all along the coast.
- 681
- 00:50:32,208 --> 00:50:34,120
- Turned Guernsey into a fortress.
- 682
- 00:50:34,250 --> 00:50:37,322
- Or a prison.
- You were locked up here.
- 683
- 00:50:37,458 --> 00:50:39,700
- They locked themselves in with us, too.
- 684
- 00:50:41,750 --> 00:50:44,914
- Well, it would have to take someone cruel
- to build anything as ugly as these
- 685
- 00:50:45,042 --> 00:50:46,874
- in such a beautiful place.
- 686
- 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,913
- They didn't build them,
- the Germans, they only designed them.
- 687
- 00:50:50,708 --> 00:50:52,074
- Who, then?
- 688
- 00:50:53,500 --> 00:50:55,708
- Todt workers, they were called.
- 689
- 00:50:57,667 --> 00:51:00,205
- 'They were slaves.
- Thousands of them.
- 690
- 00:51:00,833 --> 00:51:05,328
- 'Sent by the Reich to labour.
- From Poland, Russia.
- 691
- 00:51:05,458 --> 00:51:08,292
- 'Worked all day, all night.
- 692
- 00:51:08,417 --> 00:51:11,990
- 'They were kept in pens with the sun
- beating down on them and the rain.'
- 693
- 00:51:14,750 --> 00:51:17,288
- 'You wouldn't even
- treat animals like that.'
- 694
- 00:51:18,625 --> 00:51:20,833
- We islanders almost starved.
- 695
- 00:51:21,792 --> 00:51:23,579
- But they did.
- 696
- 00:51:23,708 --> 00:51:27,122
- Starved and... and died.
- 697
- 00:51:32,083 --> 00:51:33,824
- Dawsey...
- 698
- 00:51:33,958 --> 00:51:36,951
- I know that this is
- none of my business, but...
- 699
- 00:51:37,083 --> 00:51:39,040
- Can you tell me
- why Elizabeth was sent away?
- 700
- 00:51:41,167 --> 00:51:42,908
- What happened?
- 701
- 00:51:44,042 --> 00:51:46,955
- She helped someone and was arrested.
- 702
- 00:51:47,875 --> 00:51:49,537
- Helped someone?
- 703
- 00:51:49,667 --> 00:51:53,911
- Well, do you have any idea where she is?
- Have you not even heard from her?
- 704
- 00:52:02,833 --> 00:52:04,415
- Anything else for you, mate?
- 705
- 00:52:11,417 --> 00:52:13,374
- - Hello.
- - Oh, Juliet!
- 706
- 00:52:13,500 --> 00:52:15,913
- What a nice surprise.
- I... I thought you'd left.
- 707
- 00:52:16,042 --> 00:52:18,955
- No, not quite yet.
- And sadly not without some of your gin.
- 708
- 00:52:19,083 --> 00:52:20,324
- Ah...
- 709
- 00:52:20,458 --> 00:52:22,541
- I wanted to get some
- for my friend, Sidney.
- 710
- 00:52:22,667 --> 00:52:26,160
- Sidney. See, I knew
- you had someone in your heart.
- 711
- 00:52:26,292 --> 00:52:28,500
- - Oh...
- - I could tell it when we met.
- 712
- 00:52:28,625 --> 00:52:31,868
- Well, not... not right when we met,
- but shortly after. Such a...
- 713
- 00:52:34,083 --> 00:52:37,406
- ...strong feeling. What flavour
- do you think Sidney would like?
- 714
- 00:52:37,542 --> 00:52:39,704
- - What are my choices?
- - Let's see, we've got anise accented,
- 715
- 00:52:39,833 --> 00:52:43,201
- - delphinium dusted...
- - Isola, how exactly is all this legal?
- 716
- 00:52:43,333 --> 00:52:44,824
- Oh, I'm not sure it is.
- 717
- 00:52:45,542 --> 00:52:48,455
- But the, erm,
- the Sergeant seems to like it.
- 718
- 00:52:49,917 --> 00:52:51,283
- Oh.
- 719
- 00:52:54,625 --> 00:52:56,457
- Ahh...
- 720
- 00:52:56,583 --> 00:52:58,119
- Oh...
- 721
- 00:52:58,708 --> 00:53:00,415
- - Oh, yes.
- - Do you want some?
- 722
- 00:53:06,875 --> 00:53:10,915
- I did hear about Elizabeth,
- that she was arrested.
- 723
- 00:53:11,958 --> 00:53:15,201
- Do you suppose that's why Amelia
- didn't want me to write about the Society?
- 724
- 00:53:15,333 --> 00:53:17,074
- Good girl.
- 725
- 00:53:20,125 --> 00:53:23,664
- Is it to do with Elizabeth?
- With who she helped?
- 726
- 00:53:25,750 --> 00:53:29,744
- The thing you need to understand is that
- Elizabeth is like another daughter to Amelia.
- 727
- 00:53:30,417 --> 00:53:33,251
- - Another daughter?
- - After Amelia's daughter, Jane.
- 728
- 00:53:33,375 --> 00:53:35,617
- She and Elizabeth
- were the best of friends.
- 729
- 00:53:35,750 --> 00:53:39,414
- Elizabeth used to visit every summer
- from London, since she was a girl.
- 730
- 00:53:39,542 --> 00:53:41,625
- That's her cottage, over there.
- 731
- 00:53:45,750 --> 00:53:48,288
- She could have left in 1940,
- in the big evacuations,
- 732
- 00:53:48,417 --> 00:53:51,489
- but... Jane was pregnant.
- 733
- 00:53:52,292 --> 00:53:53,828
- So she stayed.
- 734
- 00:53:54,667 --> 00:53:55,953
- For Jane.
- 735
- 00:53:56,083 --> 00:53:58,917
- Then the Germans struck
- and it was too late for everybody.
- 736
- 00:54:06,750 --> 00:54:08,491
- Do you feel any sickness?
- 737
- 00:54:09,458 --> 00:54:11,290
- It's OK, sir, it'll be fine.
- 738
- 00:54:11,417 --> 00:54:16,583
- 'And that's where I saw Amelia,
- with Elizabeth. At the hospital.
- 739
- 00:54:16,708 --> 00:54:21,123
- 'Jane had got caught in a bombing in town
- and went into labour.
- 740
- 00:54:22,250 --> 00:54:23,707
- 'Jane lost the baby.
- 741
- 00:54:24,625 --> 00:54:26,366
- 'And then they lost Jane.'
- 742
- 00:54:33,208 --> 00:54:35,951
- Leave her. Leave her.
- 743
- 00:54:53,375 --> 00:54:55,332
- 'The Germans
- came three days later.'
- 744
- 00:55:01,083 --> 00:55:03,996
- 'We beat them in '18.
- Here they are again.
- 745
- 00:55:04,125 --> 00:55:06,492
- 'How did we let this happen?'
- 746
- 00:55:29,875 --> 00:55:32,333
- Shame! Shame on all of you!
- 747
- 00:55:32,458 --> 00:55:34,415
- - Elizabeth!
- - Shame for Poland, France,
- 748
- 00:55:34,542 --> 00:55:37,376
- - now Guernsey! Shame!
- - Come here.
- 749
- 00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:39,662
- Come here, it's all right.
- 750
- 00:55:40,375 --> 00:55:43,868
- It's all right. It's all right. She's fine.
- 751
- 00:55:48,667 --> 00:55:49,953
- Got a bit overexcited.
- 752
- 00:55:50,083 --> 00:55:53,155
- She's not doing anything,
- she's going to stop now. I'm very sorry.
- 753
- 00:55:53,292 --> 00:55:56,490
- All right, who are you defending?
- And whose side are you on?
- 754
- 00:55:56,625 --> 00:56:01,120
- Both of you! Go on, go about your duties.
- Go about your duties!
- 755
- 00:56:03,208 --> 00:56:06,872
- I've lost two people already.
- I can't afford to lose you, too.
- 756
- 00:56:08,250 --> 00:56:10,663
- 'But she has lost her,
- hasn't she?
- 757
- 00:56:10,792 --> 00:56:13,864
- 'The Germans have taken Elizabeth.'
- 758
- 00:56:20,208 --> 00:56:23,406
- That's why I think Amelia
- doesn't want to talk about the Society.
- 759
- 00:56:24,250 --> 00:56:26,788
- Why she wouldn't want anyone
- to write about it.
- 760
- 00:56:26,917 --> 00:56:29,625
- Too painful.
- She's lost so much.
- 761
- 00:56:29,750 --> 00:56:32,413
- - I didn't know.
- - The war goes on.
- 762
- 00:56:33,083 --> 00:56:35,416
- For us. Especially Amelia.
- 763
- 00:56:39,750 --> 00:56:43,164
- I don't expect it'll really be over
- until Elizabeth's home.
- 764
- 00:56:44,292 --> 00:56:45,954
- And Kit's with her mother again.
- 765
- 00:57:06,500 --> 00:57:08,537
- - Here's the rest of '40 into '41.
- - Thank you.
- 766
- 00:57:58,833 --> 00:58:02,076
- Mrs Maugery.
- Mrs Maugery, good morning.
- 767
- 00:58:02,208 --> 00:58:05,747
- Miss Ashton, morning.
- Thought you'd be gone by now.
- 768
- 00:58:06,375 --> 00:58:08,537
- Yeah, I'd planned to, but I was...
- 769
- 00:58:08,667 --> 00:58:11,000
- I was curious
- and I wanted to do some research.
- 770
- 00:58:11,125 --> 00:58:12,536
- Well, don't let me keep you.
- 771
- 00:58:12,667 --> 00:58:15,535
- - Research on the occupation.
- - Yes, I gathered that.
- 772
- 00:58:15,667 --> 00:58:19,456
- It wouldn't be about the local flora
- and fauna, would it, now?
- 773
- 00:58:20,208 --> 00:58:23,906
- I'm not writing about the Society,
- I promise.
- 774
- 00:58:27,958 --> 00:58:32,248
- I lost people too, Mrs Maugery.
- People I miss sorely.
- 775
- 00:58:32,375 --> 00:58:35,618
- - Everyone lost someone in this war.
- - My parents.
- 776
- 00:58:37,250 --> 00:58:39,742
- I know what it is to be
- without a mother.
- 777
- 00:58:39,875 --> 00:58:42,743
- If you'd let me,
- I'd like to try and help.
- 778
- 00:58:42,875 --> 00:58:47,245
- Do whatever I can to find Elizabeth
- and bring her home.
- 779
- 00:58:47,375 --> 00:58:48,832
- For Kit.
- 780
- 00:58:50,417 --> 00:58:51,908
- Please.

- - 'If anyone can do it, we can.'
- - Mark, thank you.
- 794
- 00:59:34,333 --> 00:59:38,748
- 'The war's not over for them. It won't be.
- Not until this child's mother is home.
- 795
- 00:59:38,875 --> 00:59:40,912
- 'Until then, all they can do is wait.'
- 796
- 00:59:41,042 --> 00:59:43,910
- Well, I do know a little something
- about what that's like.
- 797
- 00:59:44,042 --> 00:59:47,490
- I told you,
- just another day or so.
- 798
- 00:59:47,625 --> 00:59:50,493
- Right, right, right, right.
- Researching, I got it.
- 799
- 00:59:50,625 --> 00:59:52,912
- You can't blame me
- for being a little impatient.
- 800
- 00:59:53,042 --> 00:59:55,250
- You know, I put a ring on a girl
- and she disappeared.
- 801
- 00:59:55,375 --> 00:59:57,992
- Well, she's right here.
- Back soon.
- 802
- 00:59:58,125 --> 01:00:00,663
- Back by Wednesday.
- We're having dinner with the Cavanaghs.
- 803
- 01:00:00,792 --> 01:00:02,658
- 'Best efforts.'
- 804
- 01:00:04,750 --> 01:00:06,241
- Come on, piggy.
- 805
- 01:00:06,375 --> 01:00:08,116
- Come on, piggy. Come on.
- 806
- 01:00:08,250 --> 01:00:11,743
- Come on. Come here. Ready?
- 807
- 01:00:14,542 --> 01:00:16,454
- It's a bit loud.
- 808
- 01:00:18,167 --> 01:00:20,500
- Take it.
- You know, you can hold it.
- 809
- 01:00:20,625 --> 01:00:24,244
- Right. Oh!
- 810
- 01:00:28,833 --> 01:00:30,916
- You know it now.
- 811
- 01:00:31,042 --> 01:00:33,125
- Dawsey, I think
- you may have a problem.
- 812
- 01:00:33,250 --> 01:00:35,537
- All right. That's good.
- You stay here.
- 813
- 01:00:35,667 --> 01:00:37,704
- Kit, the pigs have gone wild!
- 814
- 01:00:55,167 --> 01:00:57,124
- It wouldn't be about them.
- 815
- 01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:59,957
- Just the occupation.
- 816
- 01:01:15,208 --> 01:01:17,996
- I thought you said they didn't want
- to be part of "The Times" article.
- 817
- 01:01:18,125 --> 01:01:20,617
- "Times" article?
- Oh, no. No, no, that's long over.
- 818
- 01:01:20,750 --> 01:01:22,116
- I'm talking about...
- 819
- 01:01:22,250 --> 01:01:24,742
- I don't know what
- I'm talking about yet, but, Sidney...
- 820
- 01:01:24,875 --> 01:01:27,947
- - It's so compelling.
- - That date's gone.
- 821
- 01:01:28,083 --> 01:01:31,702
- As bad as it was for us, these people
- had to actually live with their enemy.
- 822
- 01:01:31,833 --> 01:01:34,291
- 'Any idea
- when I might be able to tell someone
- 823
- 01:01:34,417 --> 01:01:36,374
- 'that you'll pop by their shop
- for a reading?'
- 824
- 01:01:36,500 --> 01:01:38,412
- I've been talking to the islanders,
- to everyone.
- 825
- 01:01:38,542 --> 01:01:40,499
- - 'Their personal stories.'
- - Juliet.
- 826
- 01:01:40,625 --> 01:01:42,491
- All right, I'm all ears.
- 827
- 01:01:45,083 --> 01:01:46,824
- I surrender.
- 828
- 01:01:50,542 --> 01:01:52,374
- Thank you.
- 829
- 01:01:52,500 --> 01:01:54,708
- "Dawsey Adams was sentenced
- to three weeks in jail

- "for the attack and battery

- 831
- 01:02:00,792 --> 01:02:04,240
- Dawsey attacked a man?
- 832
- 01:02:48,708 --> 01:02:50,165
- I'm sorry.
- 833
- 01:03:02,417 --> 01:03:07,082
- I see you with them,
- and I hear you writing away up there,
- 834
- 01:03:07,208 --> 01:03:13,535
- and I worry very much what story it is
- that they have you putting down.
- 835
- 01:03:14,708 --> 01:03:17,496
- I'm compiling notes
- on the occupation of Guernsey.
- 836
- 01:03:17,625 --> 01:03:22,290
- Tall tales of her heroic kindness
- and virtue, I'm sure.
- 837
- 01:03:23,208 --> 01:03:26,280
- Elizabeth McKenna was no saint.
- 838
- 01:03:26,417 --> 01:03:29,251
- Well, who among us is?
- 839
- 01:03:29,375 --> 01:03:34,700
- Mark me, she will be judged.
- Nothing more than a common Jerrybag.
- 840
- 01:03:34,833 --> 01:03:37,371
- No better than any of those
- other little sluts
- 841
- 01:03:37,500 --> 01:03:41,289
- who dropped their knickers
- for extra rations or for cigarettes.
- 842
- 01:03:42,083 --> 01:03:43,619
- For lipsticks!
- 843
- 01:03:43,750 --> 01:03:46,538
- Littering the island with their filthy
- half-German bastards.
- 844
- 01:03:47,417 --> 01:03:48,953
- - Half what?
- - See?
- 845
- 01:03:49,083 --> 01:03:51,541
- I knew. I knew
- they didn't share that with you.
- 846
- 01:03:52,375 --> 01:03:58,292
- Her adorable little secret being raised
- in her absence by that lot.
- 847
- 01:04:00,792 --> 01:04:02,749
- Are you sure
- she was talking about Elizabeth?
- 848
- 01:04:02,875 --> 01:04:04,912
- I'm not even going to repeat
- what she said.
- 849
- 01:04:05,042 --> 01:04:06,578
- That is an excellent tack to take.
- 850
- 01:04:06,708 --> 01:04:11,078
- Isola, she more than implied,
- in the least-polite way,
- 851
- 01:04:11,208 --> 01:04:13,120
- that Kit is partly German.
- 852
- 01:04:13,250 --> 01:04:15,037
- We're all partly something, Juliet.
- 853
- 01:04:16,125 --> 01:04:17,832
- And then some.
- 854
- 01:04:17,958 --> 01:04:19,540
- Isola...
- 855
- 01:04:20,417 --> 01:04:22,283
- - Is Kit Dawsey's child...
- - Dawsey's child!
- 856
- 01:04:22,417 --> 01:04:24,158
- ...or not?
- 857
- 01:04:28,167 --> 01:04:30,079
- Why does she call him Daddy?
- 858
- 01:04:33,917 --> 01:04:36,159
- It's not my story to tell.
- 859
- 01:04:36,292 --> 01:04:39,660
- She's four years old.
- She needs to call somebody Daddy.
- 860
- 01:04:39,792 --> 01:04:42,830
- Presumably her father
- would be the best candidate.
- 861
- 01:04:42,958 --> 01:04:45,621
- But that's... That's not you.
- 862
- 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:50,037
- His name's Christian Hellman.
- 863
- 01:04:52,042 --> 01:04:54,284
- And he is a German, Dawsey?
- 864
- 01:04:55,542 --> 01:04:58,990
- - A Nazi? Like Charlotte said?
- - No, no. Yes.
- 865
- 01:04:59,125 --> 01:05:02,448
- Yes, but not like Charlotte said.
- 866
- 01:05:04,542 --> 01:05:05,828
- He was my friend.
- 867
- 01:05:07,667 --> 01:05:10,205
- 'Frank Hood
- had a milk cow back in '41.
- 868
- 01:05:10,333 --> 01:05:12,370
- 'Got into trouble bringing in her calf.'
- 869
- 01:05:12,500 --> 01:05:16,039
- I don't know why she's carrying on.
- I can feel two legs right here.
- 870
- 01:05:17,250 --> 01:05:19,082
- - And the nose.
- - She's a little early.
- 871
- 01:05:19,208 --> 01:05:20,540
- But...
- 872
- 01:05:21,417 --> 01:05:23,204
- I heard the animal from the road.
- 873
- 01:05:23,333 --> 01:05:26,872
- It's too noisy for you?
- We'll try to keep it down.
- 874
- 01:05:28,083 --> 01:05:30,040
- What is the matter with her?
- 875
- 01:05:30,167 --> 01:05:33,160
- Just sorting that out.
- 876
- 01:05:33,292 --> 01:05:35,659
- You're welcome to put your head inside
- if you want to look around.
- 877
- 01:05:39,958 --> 01:05:43,497
- We don't want trouble.
- We'll register the birth. If it lives...
- 878
- 01:05:43,625 --> 01:05:46,538
- I'm a doctor. Let me help.
- 879
- 01:05:51,042 --> 01:05:54,535
- Keep it tight.
- 880
- 01:05:54,667 --> 01:05:57,375
- Two, three...
- 881
- 01:05:58,542 --> 01:06:00,283
- Good girl, good girl.
- 882
- 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:03,036
- Good girl.
- 883
- 01:06:06,917 --> 01:06:08,078
- Come on.
- 884
- 01:06:21,333 --> 01:06:23,074
- Shh.
- 885
- 01:06:23,792 --> 01:06:26,705
- Good girl. Good girl.
- 886
- 01:06:30,458 --> 01:06:32,495
- It's good.
- 887
- 01:06:33,167 --> 01:06:35,454
- She's good. She's good.
- 888
- 01:06:39,292 --> 01:06:41,079
- Come on.
- 889
- 01:06:41,208 --> 01:06:43,245
- Shh...
- 890
- 01:06:50,958 --> 01:06:52,540
- Shoulder?
- 891
- 01:06:53,375 --> 01:06:56,163
- Got kicked by a horse
- when I was a boy.
- 892
- 01:06:57,167 --> 01:06:58,908
- Break wasn't set right.
- 893
- 01:07:00,292 --> 01:07:02,158
- Do you have pain?
- 894
- 01:07:02,292 --> 01:07:04,500
- Only because
- it keeps me out of a uniform.
- 895
- 01:07:05,792 --> 01:07:07,704
- Keeps me from fighting you.
- 896
- 01:07:19,417 --> 01:07:22,785
- The look on Elizabeth's face
- when she saw Christian and me together.
- 897
- 01:07:22,917 --> 01:07:24,658
- And then I saw Christian's face.
- 898
- 01:07:27,542 --> 01:07:29,784
- It's all right, he's a friend.
- 899
- 01:07:34,417 --> 01:07:37,535
- I've always wondered which one
- of us she meant when she said that.
- 900
- 01:07:39,792 --> 01:07:42,409
- They'd met at the hospital
- where Christian was stationed.
- 901
- 01:07:43,458 --> 01:07:46,530
- They knew how dangerous it was,
- to both of them.
- 902
- 01:07:47,500 --> 01:07:48,866
- I should have said more.
- 903
- 01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:52,414
- I should have told them to be more careful,
- but she was happy.
- 904
- 01:08:30,708 --> 01:08:33,371
- Yes, it is. Yes.
- 905
- 01:08:37,542 --> 01:08:38,703
- Hello.
- 906
- 01:08:39,542 --> 01:08:41,329
- Hello.
- 907
- 01:08:42,167 --> 01:08:44,375
- What... What are you doing in here?
- 908
- 01:08:44,958 --> 01:08:50,033
- Well, the menu
- at Charlotte Stimple's is... limited.
- 909
- 01:08:50,167 --> 01:08:52,375
- And you find this an improvement?
- 910
- 01:08:52,500 --> 01:08:56,699
- - It's... It's not London.
- - I don't mind. I like it.
- 911
- 01:08:58,542 --> 01:08:59,623
- Who's with Kit?
- 912
- 01:08:59,750 --> 01:09:03,198
- Amelia's looking after her.
- We've been finishing the hotel roof.
- 913
- 01:09:03,333 --> 01:09:04,869
- Ah...
- 914
- 01:09:08,667 --> 01:09:09,908
- Can I buy you a drink?
- 915
- 01:09:12,333 --> 01:09:13,494
- A glass of beer.
- 916
- 01:09:17,625 --> 01:09:19,742
- A pint and a half, please.
- 917
- 01:09:26,750 --> 01:09:28,457
- Here you are.
- 918
- 01:09:30,167 --> 01:09:31,283
- Thank you.
- 919
- 01:09:34,542 --> 01:09:37,080
- - What?
- - Well...
- 920
- 01:09:39,292 --> 01:09:41,033
- You are not what I expected.
- 921
- 01:09:41,917 --> 01:09:43,579
- No?
- 922
- 01:09:43,708 --> 01:09:48,123
- How did you imagine me, Mr Adams,
- when you wrote me a letter?
- 923
- 01:09:50,500 --> 01:09:54,949
- Tweed hunting skirt,
- very large in the bottom.
- 924
- 01:09:56,333 --> 01:10:00,327
- Teeth like a horse.
- Few wisps of ginger-grey hair.
- 925
- 01:10:00,458 --> 01:10:02,495
- And glasses thick as jam jars.
- 926
- 01:10:02,625 --> 01:10:05,493
- She sounds lovely.
- 927
- 01:10:07,083 --> 01:10:08,540
- And you?
- 928
- 01:10:09,667 --> 01:10:12,034
- Who was the pig farmer
- you sent books to?
- 929
- 01:10:12,167 --> 01:10:13,829
- I did have a couple of ideas.
- 930
- 01:10:14,917 --> 01:10:18,615
- But it was more of a sense
- that I was writing to someone
- 931
- 01:10:18,750 --> 01:10:20,662
- who already understood me.
- 932
- 01:10:24,375 --> 01:10:27,288
- I didn't have to explain myself to you,
- too much.
- 933
- 01:10:32,208 --> 01:10:35,121
- How many of these have you had?
- 934
- 01:10:35,250 --> 01:10:39,540
- Oh... Well, I suppose it was
- because of Charles Lamb.
- 935
- 01:10:39,667 --> 01:10:41,408
- - To Charles Lamb, then.
- - Yes.
- 936
- 01:10:41,542 --> 01:10:45,240
- "Contented with little,
- yet wishing for more."
- 937
- 01:10:45,375 --> 01:10:46,536
- Ah.
- 938
- 01:10:47,833 --> 01:10:49,324
- Bravo.
- 939
- 01:10:55,042 --> 01:10:57,580
- "The beasts are very wise.
- 940
- 01:10:57,708 --> 01:10:59,825
- "Their mouths are clean of lies.

- 01:10:59,958 --> 01:11:04,123

- Well read, Eli.
- 948
- 01:11:21,917 --> 01:11:24,034
- Really well done.
- 949
- 01:11:35,125 --> 01:11:36,536
- He told you about Christian.
- 950
- 01:11:38,042 --> 01:11:39,408
- You know.
- 951
- 01:11:40,542 --> 01:11:42,249
- Some, yes.
- 952
- 01:11:45,083 --> 01:11:48,906
- Why don't you put the kettle on?
- I'll see the others out.
- 953
- 01:11:53,417 --> 01:11:56,910
- Oh! Come and give me a kiss.
- Good girl.
- 954
- 01:11:58,458 --> 01:12:03,283
- I was so against him
- when she brought him here for a meeting.
- 955
- 01:12:04,958 --> 01:12:08,281
- "'Rot you!' murmured the man,
- in a horrible passion
- 956
- 01:12:09,125 --> 01:12:11,082
- "between his clenched teeth.
- 957
- 01:12:11,833 --> 01:12:14,120
- "'If I had only had the courage
- to say the word,
- 958
- 01:12:14,250 --> 01:12:16,833
- "'I might have been free of you
- in a night.
- 959
- 01:12:16,958 --> 01:12:21,498
- "'Curses on your head,
- and black death on your heart, you imp!
- 960
- 01:12:21,625 --> 01:12:23,662
- "'What are you doing here?'
- 961
- 01:12:23,792 --> 01:12:28,412
- "The man shook his fist
- as he uttered these words incoherently."
- 962
- 01:12:28,542 --> 01:12:31,785
- - Do you not care that I love him?
- - It disgusts me.
- 963
- 01:12:32,667 --> 01:12:36,115
- - He killed Jane. He killed my husband.
- - Christian didn't kill them.
- 964
- 01:12:36,250 --> 01:12:38,037
- Yes, he did.
- 965
- 01:12:40,250 --> 01:12:41,707
- They did.
- 966
- 01:12:43,750 --> 01:12:45,207
- Elizabeth...
- 967
- 01:12:46,792 --> 01:12:49,034
- Please don't put us through this.
- 968
- 01:12:50,542 --> 01:12:52,033
- Just end it.
- 969
- 01:12:52,917 --> 01:12:54,499
- - I can't.
- - Why? Why can't you?
- 970
- 01:12:54,625 --> 01:12:56,491
- Because I don't want to!
- 971
- 01:12:58,833 --> 01:13:01,871
- And I couldn't, anyway.
- 972
- 01:13:04,167 --> 01:13:06,534
- Elizabeth.
- 973
- 01:13:06,667 --> 01:13:07,908
- Elizabeth!
- 974
- 01:13:24,667 --> 01:13:28,832
- Christian was discovered
- sneaking into the camp that night.
- 975
- 01:13:29,542 --> 01:13:33,035
- They shipped him off the next day.
- 976
- 01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:39,618
- So I got my wish, didn't I?
- 977
- 01:13:42,375 --> 01:13:44,037
- They never did see each other again.
- 978
- 01:13:46,292 --> 01:13:50,832
- His ship was torpedoed
- just shy of the coast.
- 979
- 01:13:52,792 --> 01:13:54,579
- He died.
- 980
- 01:13:54,708 --> 01:13:57,166
- Now he's at the bottom of the sea.
- 981
- 01:13:58,000 --> 01:13:59,707
- Like my husband.
- 982
- 01:14:01,167 --> 01:14:04,831
- Lost in a sea of mud on the Somme.
- 983
- 01:14:08,458 --> 01:14:11,701
- And she hadn't even told him about Kit.
- 984
- 01:14:12,833 --> 01:14:16,622
- He didn't know he'd left two behind.
- 985
- 01:14:18,417 --> 01:14:21,910
- If there's any shame, it's mine.
- 986
- 01:14:22,750 --> 01:14:24,332
- All mine.
- 987
- 01:14:25,833 --> 01:14:28,621
- I failed Elizabeth when she needed me.
- 988
- 01:14:30,250 --> 01:14:32,287
- Now all that matters is protecting Kit.
- 989
- 01:14:33,250 --> 01:14:34,991
- Protecting Kit?
- 990
- 01:14:36,542 --> 01:14:38,158
- From what?
- 991
- 01:14:38,292 --> 01:14:44,209
- If Elizabeth doesn't come home,
- the child's only living relatives...
- 992
- 01:14:46,625 --> 01:14:48,161
- will be Germans.
- 993
- 01:14:49,500 --> 01:14:51,617
- - They might come for her.
- - No.
- 994
- 01:14:51,750 --> 01:14:56,620
- But you said yourself that...
- that Christian didn't even know about Kit.
- 995
- 01:14:57,500 --> 01:14:59,412
- And even if he had...
- 996
- 01:15:00,542 --> 01:15:03,285
- Amelia, Kit is safe.
- 997
- 01:15:03,417 --> 01:15:06,000
- - You don't know that.
- - I promise you.
- 998
- 01:15:06,125 --> 01:15:10,039
- I've seen things
- I never thought could happen, happen.
- 999
- 01:15:11,375 --> 01:15:15,790
- I can't lose another person
- to the Germans. I'm sorry.
- 1000
- 01:15:17,250 --> 01:15:18,616
- I can't.
- 1001
- 01:16:14,500 --> 01:16:15,991
- What do you think you're doing?
- 1002
- 01:16:16,125 --> 01:16:18,117
- You've fallen to their side.
- 1003
- 01:16:18,250 --> 01:16:21,664
- - I tried to warn you.
- - And everybody warned me about you!
- 1004
- 01:16:22,708 --> 01:16:25,041
- Your soul is in mortal danger.
- 1005
- 01:16:25,167 --> 01:16:28,285
- Oh, my soul. Thank you.
- 1006
- 01:16:28,417 --> 01:16:30,374
- But it's my privacy I fear for most
- just now.
- 1007
- 01:16:30,500 --> 01:16:32,992
- Miss Ashton, let us pray.
- 1008
- 01:16:33,125 --> 01:16:36,414
- I pray you let go of me
- before I knock you down.
- 1009
- 01:16:36,542 --> 01:16:39,250
- Now here is a book filled with love.
- 1010
- 01:16:39,917 --> 01:16:44,207
- And you overlook all of it in favour of
- judgement and petty meanness.
- 1011
- 01:16:47,458 --> 01:16:50,075
- "Seek and ye shall find" indeed!
- 1012
- 01:16:52,458 --> 01:16:54,825
- It is I that shall pray for you,
- Miss Stimple.
- 1013
- 01:16:56,167 --> 01:16:58,409
- But from a far safer distance.
- 1014
- 01:17:25,500 --> 01:17:28,163
- Juliet?
- 1015
- 01:17:29,542 --> 01:17:30,783
- I have nowhere to go.
- 1016
- 01:17:38,542 --> 01:17:43,037
- I think Amelia feels ashamed
- because she hated them all so much.
- 1017
- 01:17:43,875 --> 01:17:46,618
- She wasn't able to see
- that Christian was different...
- 1018
- 01:17:47,542 --> 01:17:49,408
- the way Elizabeth could.
- 1019
- 01:17:49,542 --> 01:17:51,625
- And you think Elizabeth was right?
- 1020
- 01:17:52,500 --> 01:17:54,366
- Oh, I know it.
- 1021
- 01:17:55,125 --> 01:17:56,912
- He was a lovely man.
- 1022
- 01:17:57,958 --> 01:18:02,623
- All I know of romance in real life
- is Elizabeth and Christian.
- 1023
- 01:18:05,708 --> 01:18:08,200
- But tell me about your suitor.
- 1024
- 01:18:08,333 --> 01:18:09,869
- I want to hear all about your Sidney.
- 1025
- 01:18:12,125 --> 01:18:16,039
- Actually, Sidney's my publisher.
- And my oldest friend in the world.
- 1026
- 01:18:17,333 --> 01:18:19,165
- Still, there's a chance?
- 1027
- 01:18:19,958 --> 01:18:24,328
- There would be a greater chance
- if I were called George.
- 1028
- 01:18:25,208 --> 01:18:26,915
- Or maybe Tom.
- 1029
- 01:18:27,958 --> 01:18:32,828
- - He likes men's names?
- - Indeed... he does.
- 1030
- 01:18:33,875 --> 01:18:37,698
- - Oh... Oh.
- - Yes.
- 1031
- 01:18:40,333 --> 01:18:43,041
- Ooh... Thank you.
- 1032
- 01:18:44,417 --> 01:18:46,830
- And besides, Isola...
- 1033
- 01:18:48,542 --> 01:18:51,740
- - I'm engaged.
- - What?
- 1034
- 01:18:52,750 --> 01:18:56,164
- - To whom?
- - Mark, Markham Reynolds.
- 1035
- 01:18:56,292 --> 01:18:59,410
- - Markham? How elegant.
- - He's American.
- 1036
- 01:18:59,542 --> 01:19:01,078
- Oh.
- 1037
- 01:19:01,208 --> 01:19:03,916
- But where's the ring?
- Or is he very poor?
- 1038
- 01:19:04,042 --> 01:19:06,034
- That's OK, too.
- 1039
- 01:19:19,542 --> 01:19:22,535
- - He's not poor.
- - No.
- 1040
- 01:19:27,958 --> 01:19:30,496
- Why aren't you wearing it?
- 1041
- 01:19:30,625 --> 01:19:32,412
- Well, I...
- 1042
- 01:19:32,542 --> 01:19:35,034
- I'm not yet used to it,
- I suppose.
- 1043
- 01:19:35,167 --> 01:19:38,410
- And I wanted to keep it safe.
- 1044
- 01:19:40,542 --> 01:19:43,831
- So, what sort of books
- does Markham enjoy?
- 1045
- 01:19:45,750 --> 01:19:48,037
- Erm... Have you...
- 1046
- 01:19:52,042 --> 01:19:53,533
- shared a passionate encounter?
- 1047
- 01:19:54,542 --> 01:19:55,828
- Isola!
- 1048
- 01:19:55,958 --> 01:19:59,122
- I have never shared
- a passionate encounter, myself.
- 1049
- 01:20:00,417 --> 01:20:03,000
- I am only beautiful
- on the inside.
- 1050
- 01:20:03,125 --> 01:20:06,197
- You are beautiful
- on the outside as well.
- 1051
- 01:20:06,333 --> 01:20:09,292
- - And men do like that.
- - Nonsense.
- 1052
- 01:20:09,417 --> 01:20:11,204
- There must be someone here you like.
- 1053
- 01:20:11,333 --> 01:20:14,997
- No. Not at present.
- 1054
- 01:20:15,125 --> 01:20:17,412
- But I have "Wuthering Heights", don't I?
- 1055
- 01:20:18,667 --> 01:20:20,750
- Do you not mind being alone?
- 1056
- 01:20:22,292 --> 01:20:25,205
- I suppose. Sometimes.
- 1057
- 01:20:26,500 --> 01:20:28,787
- But then I think
- how much sweeter it'll be
- 1058
- 01:20:28,917 --> 01:20:32,035
- when my Heathcliff
- finally shows himself.
- 1059
- 01:20:32,167 --> 01:20:36,411
- And how glad I'll be
- that I decided to wait for him.
- 1060
- 01:20:39,542 --> 01:20:41,249
- Careful!
- 1061
- 01:20:41,375 --> 01:20:44,163
- - Good, you're here.
- - Hello.
- 1062
- 01:20:44,292 --> 01:20:46,375
- - You busy?
- - No.
- 1063
- 01:20:46,500 --> 01:20:49,538
- New glass for the greenhouse
- just came into the port today.
- 1064
- 01:20:49,667 --> 01:20:52,626
- I was going to help unload,
- but I need someone to fetch Kit home.
- 1065
- 01:20:53,542 --> 01:20:54,874
- Oh, I'd be happy to!
- 1066
- 01:20:55,458 --> 01:20:57,120
- Eddie, blast your eyes. Get out!
- 1067
- 01:20:57,250 --> 01:20:59,993
- - All right.
- - Go on, get off.
- 1068
- 01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:05,912
- Are you sure it's no trouble?
- 1069
- 01:21:08,042 --> 01:21:09,158
- Absolutely not.
- 1070
- 01:21:09,292 --> 01:21:10,828
- - Thank you.
- - Oh...
- 1071
- 01:21:10,958 --> 01:21:13,075
- <i>- À la prochaine!</i>
- - Oh, right.
- 1072
- 01:21:13,208 --> 01:21:15,825
- - Come on.
- - Kit, slow down. Wait for me!
- 1073
- 01:21:22,667 --> 01:21:26,991
- Away! Away, away.
- 1074
- 01:22:00,083 --> 01:22:01,870
- Kit!
- 1075
- 01:22:24,458 --> 01:22:26,825
- Juliet! Up here!
- 1076
- 01:22:29,667 --> 01:22:31,875
- Do you want to see my treasure box?
- 1077
- 01:22:42,708 --> 01:22:44,324
- Hmm, delicious.
- 1078
- 01:22:52,125 --> 01:22:54,037
- This is me and my mummy.
- 1079
- 01:22:54,958 --> 01:22:59,202
- She loves me very much,
- but she can't be here right now.
- 1080
- 01:23:00,333 --> 01:23:03,201
- And she'll come back as soon as she can.
- 1081
- 01:23:04,333 --> 01:23:05,699
- Oh...
- 1082
- 01:23:14,833 --> 01:23:16,369
- She's very pretty.
- 1083
- 01:23:27,542 --> 01:23:30,614
- Oh... Thank you.
- 1084
- 01:24:37,250 --> 01:24:40,743
- Such a small thing.
- Just a book.
- 1085
- 01:24:41,792 --> 01:24:43,829
- Yet it's brought me all this way.
- 1086
- 01:25:07,792 --> 01:25:10,500
- Er, Kit's in her room, sleeping.
- 1087
- 01:25:10,625 --> 01:25:12,617
- Thank you for watching her.
- 1088
- 01:25:12,750 --> 01:25:14,742
- We had a lovely time.
- 1089
- 01:25:16,208 --> 01:25:18,825
- She's... She's fond of you.
- 1090
- 01:25:22,708 --> 01:25:24,324
- I best get back.
- 1091
- 01:25:31,458 --> 01:25:33,324
- - Morning.
- - Morning.
- 1092
- 01:25:33,458 --> 01:25:35,825
- - Miss! Miss Ashton!
- - Yes?
- 1093
- 01:25:35,958 --> 01:25:38,792
- There's a call for you at the post office
- from a Mark Reynolds.
- 1094
- 01:25:50,125 --> 01:25:53,163
- - Not picking up?
- - No. He left no message?
- 1095
- 01:25:53,292 --> 01:25:55,249
- No, sorry. We'll try again later.
- 1096
- 01:25:55,375 --> 01:25:58,994
- Oh, no. No, it's all right.
- 1097
- 01:25:59,125 --> 01:26:03,039
- Just, er, if he calls back,
- let him know I'm over at the newspap...
- 1098
- 01:26:03,750 --> 01:26:04,991
- - Eben?
- - Hm-hmm?
- 1099
- 01:26:05,667 --> 01:26:07,203
- I hope you don't mind me asking,
- 1100
- 01:26:07,333 --> 01:26:09,416
- but who is that man
- that's always skulking about?
- 1101
- 01:26:09,542 --> 01:26:10,908
- That one?
- 1102
- 01:26:11,042 --> 01:26:14,831
- - He steers a wide path of Dawsey.
- - Yeah, I shouldn't wonder.
- 1103
- 01:26:14,958 --> 01:26:19,032
- That's Eddie Meares.
- The fellow who informed on Elizabeth.
- 1104
- 01:26:19,167 --> 01:26:22,706
- - Informed on Elizabeth?
- - Among others.
- 1105
- 01:26:25,708 --> 01:26:27,244
- Morning.
- 1106
- 01:26:27,375 --> 01:26:29,287
- Yeah, he profited nicely
- during the war,
- 1107
- 01:26:29,417 --> 01:26:30,908
- but he's paying the price now.
- 1108
- 01:26:31,042 --> 01:26:32,408
- Look at him.
- 1109
- 01:26:32,542 --> 01:26:34,784
- He's the man Dawsey attacked.
- 1110
- 01:26:34,917 --> 01:26:38,035
- Oh, that was a beautiful thing to see.
- 1111
- 01:26:38,167 --> 01:26:41,001
- Should have sold tickets.
- 1112
- 01:26:44,292 --> 01:26:45,373
- Steady, lad. Steady.
- 1113
- 01:26:47,500 --> 01:26:50,993
- New jacket, Eddie?
- You're doing all right for yourself.
- 1114
- 01:26:51,125 --> 01:26:53,993
- - Can't help if business is good.
- - Oh, Eddie, what business is that?
- 1115
- 01:26:54,125 --> 01:26:57,368
- I'd say that jacket's made
- of Elizabeth McKenna's hide.
- 1116
- 01:26:57,500 --> 01:26:59,332
- What business would that be
- of any of yours?
- 1117
- 01:27:01,458 --> 01:27:03,120
- That Jerrybag wasn't even from here.
- 1118
- 01:27:03,250 --> 01:27:06,288
- It's just too bad they didn't ship
- her wee bastard off with her.
- 1119
- 01:27:10,417 --> 01:27:11,953
- You're the bastard, Meares.
- 1120
- 01:27:13,333 --> 01:27:14,699
- Or did I get it wrong, Adams?
- 1121
- 01:27:14,833 --> 01:27:16,870
- Maybe you shared her
- with your Nazi friend.
- 1122
- 01:27:20,542 --> 01:27:21,828
- Leave it, Dawsey!
- 1123
- 01:27:22,542 --> 01:27:26,456
- They had to give him three weeks,
- but he only served one.
- 1124
- 01:27:26,583 --> 01:27:29,075
- I'd have done it for him if I could.
- 1125
- 01:27:29,708 --> 01:27:31,449
- And that one...
- 1126
- 01:27:31,583 --> 01:27:35,406
- He has to live with himself now.
- God help him.
- 1127
- 01:27:40,042 --> 01:27:43,615
- Why does Kit live with you
- rather than Amelia or...?
- 1128
- 01:27:43,750 --> 01:27:45,958
- Because Elizabeth left her with me.
- 1129
- 01:27:47,542 --> 01:27:49,033
- But why?
- 1130
- 01:27:52,875 --> 01:27:54,366
- Dawsey...
- 1131
- 01:27:54,500 --> 01:27:56,082
- What happened?
- 1132
- 01:27:56,208 --> 01:27:58,951
- Piggies. Pig.
- 1133
- 01:27:59,083 --> 01:28:03,202
- She came to the house that night.
- The night she was arrested.
- 1134
- 01:28:04,042 --> 01:28:09,333
- One of the slave workers, a boy,
- had escaped somehow.
- 1135
- 01:28:09,458 --> 01:28:10,539
- She found him.
- 1136
- 01:28:11,458 --> 01:28:14,246
- He was hurt, sick.
- 1137
- 01:28:15,167 --> 01:28:17,159
- He needed help.
- 1138
- 01:28:17,292 --> 01:28:19,284
- Come on, piggy.
- 1139
- 01:28:19,417 --> 01:28:21,909
- - So, she brought Kit.
- - Pig...
- 1140
- 01:28:22,042 --> 01:28:26,833
- Would I watch her
- while she went for supplies?
- 1141
- 01:28:26,958 --> 01:28:30,030
- You can't go running around the island
- after curfew.
- 1142
- 01:28:31,083 --> 01:28:33,040
- - I don't have a choice.
- - Of course you do.
- 1143
- 01:28:33,167 --> 01:28:36,239
- You have a choice,
- you have a responsibility.
- 1144
- 01:28:36,375 --> 01:28:38,367
- I won't do it.
- You can't leave her here.
- 1145
- 01:28:38,917 --> 01:28:41,159
- - Do you have any bread?
- - Take her to Amelia or Isola.
- 1146
- 01:28:41,292 --> 01:28:43,409
- I will be gone for 20 minutes.
- 1147
- 01:28:43,542 --> 01:28:44,783
- Do you have any bread?
- 1148
- 01:28:58,000 --> 01:28:59,116
- Elizabeth...
- 1149
- 01:29:01,125 --> 01:29:03,833
- Because you give me
- the last piece of bread when I ask.
- 1150
- 01:29:06,208 --> 01:29:08,416
- That is why I trust her to you.
- 1151
- 01:29:14,417 --> 01:29:15,703
- Elizabeth!
- 1152
- 01:29:16,500 --> 01:29:18,082
- - Elizabeth!
- - Shh, Dawsey. Go back!
- 1153
- 01:29:18,208 --> 01:29:20,996
- You can't risk it, it's too dangerous.
- You have a child.
- 1154
- 01:29:21,125 --> 01:29:22,457
- This is someone's child, too.
- 1155
- 01:29:22,583 --> 01:29:24,666
- How could I look his mother
- in the eye if I didn't help?
- 1156
- 01:29:24,792 --> 01:29:26,454
- You will never meet her!
- 1157
- 01:29:26,583 --> 01:29:29,951
- If I don't help him, he will die.
- Would you have me look the other way?
- 1158
- 01:29:30,083 --> 01:29:31,199
- Yes, please.
- 1159
- 01:29:31,333 --> 01:29:32,699
- - I can't!
- - Please.
- 1160
- 01:29:34,458 --> 01:29:36,871
- I'll go. Tell me what you need
- from the hospital.
- 1161
- 01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:38,241
- They'll never let you in.
- 1162
- 01:29:38,375 --> 01:29:41,413
- I'll be back.
- Two shakes of a lamb's tail.
- 1163
- 01:29:54,667 --> 01:29:56,579
- They shot him by the side of the road.
- 1164
- 01:30:06,042 --> 01:30:07,999
- And they arrested Elizabeth.
- 1165
- 01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:12,583
- I should have nailed her to the floor.
- 1166
- 01:30:14,125 --> 01:30:15,457
- But I let her go.
- 1167
- 01:30:16,375 --> 01:30:18,287
- It's not your fault.
- 1168
- 01:30:19,125 --> 01:30:21,082
- - It is.
- - Dawsey...
- 1169
- 01:30:22,833 --> 01:30:26,201
- It's not fair, the choice she made.
- 1170
- 01:30:27,083 --> 01:30:29,450
- To Kit, to you.
- 1171
- 01:30:30,958 --> 01:30:34,030
- You're raising this child
- all by yourself.
- 1172
- 01:30:34,167 --> 01:30:35,908
- But I... I, I love her.
- 1173
- 01:30:36,583 --> 01:30:39,371
- Rise and shine.
- 1174
- 01:30:44,375 --> 01:30:45,456
- I love Kit.
- 1175
- 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:50,741
- Do you love Elizabeth?
- 1176
- 01:30:56,458 --> 01:30:59,166
- - Whoa. Whoa there, boy.
- - Juliet!
- 1177
- 01:31:01,042 --> 01:31:03,204
- Mark? Mark!
- 1178
- 01:31:05,750 --> 01:31:08,117
- Mark!
- What are you doing here?
- 1179
- 01:31:20,542 --> 01:31:22,329
- - Hi.
- - Hello.
- 1180
- 01:31:22,458 --> 01:31:24,541
- How you doing? Mark Reynolds.
- 1181
- 01:31:25,375 --> 01:31:26,991
- Dawsey Adams.
- 1182
- 01:31:27,125 --> 01:31:30,368
- The letter-writing pig farmer?
- Fellow bibliophile.
- 1183
- 01:31:31,042 --> 01:31:32,578
- It's good to meet you.
- 1184
- 01:31:34,292 --> 01:31:37,615
- - I hope I'm not intruding.
- - What are you doing here?
- 1185
- 01:31:37,750 --> 01:31:40,333
- If you ask me that again,
- I'm gonna feel a little unwelcome.
- 1186
- 01:31:40,458 --> 01:31:41,994
- I missed you.
- I hope that's enough.
- 1187
- 01:31:43,875 --> 01:31:48,119
- More than enough.
- I'm just surprised.
- 1188
- 01:31:48,250 --> 01:31:51,448
- - That's all.
- - Well, I tried to call you yesterday.
- 1189
- 01:31:51,583 --> 01:31:54,041
- And I thought, you know,
- why not hop on a flight?
- 1190
- 01:31:54,167 --> 01:31:56,830
- Come see what's so fascinating here
- for myself.
- 1191
- 01:31:57,542 --> 01:31:59,784
- I have some idea now.
- 1192
- 01:32:01,958 --> 01:32:03,950
- - You know, it's a beautiful island.
- - Yes.
- 1193
- 01:32:04,083 --> 01:32:07,827
- - It's just lacking a proper florist.
- - Oh!
- 1194
- 01:32:10,167 --> 01:32:11,203
- All the way from London.
- 1195
- 01:32:11,333 --> 01:32:14,326
- Mark, they're beautiful.
- Thank you.
- 1196
- 01:32:16,083 --> 01:32:17,949
- How about a private tour?
- 1197
- 01:32:18,083 --> 01:32:19,574
- Yes.
- 1198
- 01:32:21,125 --> 01:32:22,832
- Absolutely.
- 1199
- 01:32:27,333 --> 01:32:29,370
- - Nice to meet you.
- - Yes.
- 1200
- 01:32:34,292 --> 01:32:36,625
- Do you see the one
- with the greenhouse? That's Isola's.
- 1201
- 01:32:36,750 --> 01:32:38,867
- That's where I've been staying
- this past week.
- 1202
- 01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:41,083
- Do you see it?
- It's the one with the garden.
- 1203
- 01:32:42,250 --> 01:32:44,162
- Have you lost the ring I gave you?
- 1204
- 01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:46,707
- No, I haven't.
- 1205
- 01:32:46,833 --> 01:32:48,699
- Have you changed your mind?
- 1206
- 01:32:51,875 --> 01:32:54,492
- - No.
- - Then why aren't you wearing it?
- 1207
- 01:32:55,875 --> 01:32:58,162
- Because I am afraid of losing it.
- 1208
- 01:32:58,292 --> 01:33:00,158
- I can... I can only imagine
- what it cost.
- 1209
- 01:33:00,292 --> 01:33:02,830
- And I... I wanted to keep it safe.
- 1210
- 01:33:04,708 --> 01:33:08,201
- - And I'll... I'll tell you the truth.
- - That would be great.
- 1211
- 01:33:10,792 --> 01:33:15,958
- I feel like I'm lording about,
- with a great gold crown on my forehead.
- 1212
- 01:33:16,083 --> 01:33:17,870
- Can you understand that?
- 1213
- 01:33:18,833 --> 01:33:21,200
- My good fortune feels...
- 1214
- 01:33:22,583 --> 01:33:24,575
- It feels so conspicuous here.
- 1215
- 01:33:24,708 --> 01:33:27,746
- I take it gold crowns
- aren't the fashion on Guernsey?
- 1216
- 01:33:29,042 --> 01:33:31,079
- Or maybe just not on pig farms.
- 1217
- 01:33:37,750 --> 01:33:40,413
- Or maybe you'd like to take it back.
- 1218
- 01:33:45,917 --> 01:33:48,250
- More than anything,
- I just wanna see it on you.
- 1219
- 01:33:49,333 --> 01:33:51,245
- Right here, where I put it.
- 1220
- 01:33:55,583 --> 01:33:57,575
- Unless there's something
- you wanna tell me.
- 1221
- 01:34:08,542 --> 01:34:10,454
- Good.
- 1222
- 01:34:10,583 --> 01:34:12,870
- Now, the real reason I came...
- 1223
- 01:34:28,583 --> 01:34:32,327
- Mark was able to trace her
- to a camp in Ravensbrück.
- 1224
- 01:34:32,458 --> 01:34:35,121
- Wh... Where's Ravensbrück?
- 1225
- 01:34:35,250 --> 01:34:36,912
- Germany.
- 1226
- 01:34:43,125 --> 01:34:45,583
- There are witnesses who saw her.
- 1227
- 01:34:46,542 --> 01:34:47,828
- Who were there...
- 1228
- 01:34:47,958 --> 01:34:49,870
- the day she died.
- 1229
- 01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:53,493
- - Do they know how she died?
- - She was shot.
- 1230
- 01:35:00,542 --> 01:35:03,205
- They say she tried to save a girl...
- 1231
- 01:35:04,208 --> 01:35:06,040
- who was being beaten.
- 1232
- 01:35:09,667 --> 01:35:14,662
- Elizabeth got the stick from the guard
- and she struck him with it.
- 1233
- 01:35:16,417 --> 01:35:18,033
- The girl was spared.
- 1234
- 01:35:18,958 --> 01:35:21,200
- But they killed Elizabeth instead.
- 1235
- 01:35:26,458 --> 01:35:28,074
- I'm so sorry.
- 1236
- 01:35:38,458 --> 01:35:41,201
- - Where are you going, Dawsey?
- - To tell Kit.
- 1237
- 01:35:41,333 --> 01:35:45,373
- Right now? Don't you want
- to give yourself a chance to think?
- 1238
- 01:35:45,500 --> 01:35:47,082
- - Think what?
- - What will you tell her?
- 1239
- 01:35:47,208 --> 01:35:50,076
- - I'll do it, Dawsey.
- - I will.
- 1240
- 01:35:51,042 --> 01:35:52,578
- Wait.
- 1241
- 01:36:05,167 --> 01:36:06,578
- Come on.
- 1242
- 01:36:07,542 --> 01:36:09,033
- Come here.
- 1243
- 01:36:14,917 --> 01:36:17,079
- She's only four.
- 1244
- 01:36:17,208 --> 01:36:20,531
- - What can she understand?
- - I'm older than time.
- 1245
- 01:36:22,875 --> 01:36:25,037
- And I understand nothing.
- 1246
- 01:36:27,042 --> 01:36:28,533
- Nothing.
- 1247
- 01:36:30,083 --> 01:36:32,575
- Nothing.
- 1248
- 01:36:36,500 --> 01:36:38,162
- It's time to go.
- 1249
- 01:36:59,542 --> 01:37:03,957
- It's not like I can keep putting poor Sidney
- and his book tour off forever.
- 1250
- 01:37:04,083 --> 01:37:07,372
- - I have to get back to London sometime.
- - Then there's your Mark.
- 1251
- 01:37:07,500 --> 01:37:10,823
- - Wouldn't want him to go to waste.
- - No.
- 1252
- 01:37:12,125 --> 01:37:14,788
- - You see?
- - Hm.
- 1253
- 01:37:14,917 --> 01:37:16,704
- There's nothing to keep you here.
- 1254
- 01:37:17,833 --> 01:37:19,415
- No.
- 1255
- 01:37:19,542 --> 01:37:22,205
- - My life's in London.
- - Yes, it is.
- 1256
- 01:37:25,042 --> 01:37:29,286
- I'm afraid how lonely it's going to feel now,
- when you're gone.
- 1257
- 01:37:31,083 --> 01:37:34,702
- It's terrible to lose a friend
- when you don't have many.
- 1258
- 01:38:14,042 --> 01:38:15,783
- Thank you.
- 1259
- 01:38:29,500 --> 01:38:31,207
- I'm so sorry, Amelia.
- 1260
- 01:38:36,417 --> 01:38:39,706
- - Bye, Miss.
- - Keep going with the Kipling.
- 1261
- 01:38:39,833 --> 01:38:41,369
- Goodbye.
- 1262
- 01:38:42,917 --> 01:38:44,579
- I'll miss you.
- 1263
- 01:38:45,417 --> 01:38:47,374
- I'll miss all of you.
- 1264
- 01:38:55,333 --> 01:38:57,290
- This is yours.
- 1265
- 01:39:00,375 --> 01:39:02,287
- I'd like you to keep that.
- 1266
- 01:39:06,583 --> 01:39:09,041
- - Juliet, I'll be on board.
- - Yes.
- 1267
- 01:39:09,167 --> 01:39:12,205
- - Mr Adams, it was nice to meet you.
- - Bye-bye, Juliet.
- 1268
- 01:39:13,333 --> 01:39:14,369
- Bye, Kit.
- 1269
- 01:39:16,750 --> 01:39:18,161
- Kit.
- 1270
- 01:39:27,958 --> 01:39:29,790
- We'll still write to each other,
- won't we?
- 1271
- 01:39:29,917 --> 01:39:31,704
- Yes, of course.
- 1272
- 01:39:38,458 --> 01:39:41,292
- Goodbye.
- 1273
- 01:41:12,375 --> 01:41:14,082
- Thank goodness you're here, Mr Stark.
- 1274
- 01:41:14,208 --> 01:41:17,280
- Poor thing. She's not eating,
- and she's as quiet as a mouse.
- 1275
- 01:41:17,417 --> 01:41:19,579
- Well, let's see what we can fix.
- 1276
- 01:41:19,708 --> 01:41:22,325
- I can tell you, the silence
- is worse than the typing ever was.
- 1277
- 01:41:22,458 --> 01:41:23,494
- Hmm.
- 1278
- 01:41:28,250 --> 01:41:30,207
- You have to write about them.
- 1279
- 01:41:30,333 --> 01:41:33,747
- I can't. I promised I wouldn't.
- 1280
- 01:41:33,875 --> 01:41:38,074
- I realise that, Juliet,
- but this is your story to tell,
- 1281
- 01:41:38,208 --> 01:41:42,407
- as sure as I'm sitting here,
- and you will not be right until you do.
- 1282
- 01:41:43,708 --> 01:41:47,907
- Now, Elizabeth, for better or worse,
- couldn't help but follow her heart.
- 1283
- 01:41:48,042 --> 01:41:49,749
- You must do the same.
- 1284
- 01:41:50,958 --> 01:41:53,041
- I'm afraid.
- 1285
- 01:41:53,833 --> 01:41:56,371
- - What if I'm not a good enough writer?
- - Ah.
- 1286
- 01:41:57,708 --> 01:41:59,244
- She doubts.
- 1287
- 01:42:00,542 --> 01:42:02,283
- She doesn't believe.
- 1288
- 01:42:05,167 --> 01:42:09,832
- She craves being taken seriously,
- but then she won't do that for herself.
- 1289
- 01:42:12,375 --> 01:42:14,412
- I think you're better than you yet know.
- 1290
- 01:42:15,583 --> 01:42:18,781
- And as your friend, of many, many...
- 1291
- 01:42:19,875 --> 01:42:22,083
- many years...
- 1292
- 01:42:26,667 --> 01:42:29,034
- I've seen you reach
- for what you want.
- 1293
- 01:42:30,292 --> 01:42:32,500
- You have that courage.
- 1294
- 01:43:05,125 --> 01:43:07,037
- You look absolutely ravishing.
- 1295
- 01:43:07,167 --> 01:43:08,829
- Thank you.
- 1296
- 01:43:08,958 --> 01:43:10,415
- We...
- 1297
- 01:43:11,542 --> 01:43:13,408
- need to celebrate.
- 1298
- 01:43:22,083 --> 01:43:23,290
- To us.
- 1299
- 01:43:32,542 --> 01:43:35,285
- Juliet, what is it?
- 1300
- 01:43:38,208 --> 01:43:40,825
- Mark, I'm sorry.
- 1301
- 01:43:46,417 --> 01:43:47,874
- I am very sorry.
- 1302
- 01:43:59,542 --> 01:44:03,456
- OK, is my mistake
- bringing you back too quickly
- 1303
- 01:44:03,583 --> 01:44:05,324
- or letting you go to Guernsey
- in the first place?
- 1304
- 01:44:06,250 --> 01:44:08,458
- I should have never let you
- out of my sight.
- 1305
- 01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:13,414
- I think I would have found myself here
- sooner or later,
- 1306
- 01:44:13,542 --> 01:44:15,534
- even if I'd gone nowhere.
- 1307
- 01:44:16,875 --> 01:44:18,707
- I am sorry, Mark.
- 1308
- 01:44:25,000 --> 01:44:26,707
- May I ask if you ever loved me?
- 1309
- 01:44:27,250 --> 01:44:29,207
- I loved our time together.
- 1310
- 01:44:29,333 --> 01:44:32,121
- - And I still truly care for you.
- - It's not really the same thing, is it?
- 1311
- 01:44:32,250 --> 01:44:35,823
- - But I feel terribly...
- - Well, I am really sorry about that.
- 1312
- 01:44:36,792 --> 01:44:39,079
- Mark, as unhappy with me
- as you are right now,
- 1313
- 01:44:39,208 --> 01:44:41,245
- being married to me
- would not have made you happy.
- 1314
- 01:44:41,375 --> 01:44:43,788
- I'd just as soon as you not tell me
- what would make me happy.
- 1315
- 01:44:43,917 --> 01:44:45,328
- I got a better beat on that than you.
- 1316
- 01:44:45,458 --> 01:44:47,245
- And you deserve someone
- who can share that.
- 1317
- 01:44:47,375 --> 01:44:50,038
- Who can share every wonderful thing
- you have to offer.
- 1318
- 01:44:52,000 --> 01:44:54,538
- - You deserve better.
- - Well, I deserve better than I got.
- 1319
- 01:44:55,333 --> 01:44:56,744
- I'll give you that.
- 1320
- 01:44:58,917 --> 01:45:00,408
- And you will have it.
- 1321
- 01:45:00,542 --> 01:45:03,956
- I'm sure I will.
- But not at this table. Goodnight.
- 1322
- 01:45:13,292 --> 01:45:15,500
- Goodbye, Mark.
- 1323
- 01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:27,707
- Goodbye, Juliet.
- 1324
- 01:47:49,583 --> 01:47:54,408
- "The Guernsey Literary
- and Potato Peel Pie Society."
- 1325
- 01:47:55,458 --> 01:47:57,074
- Crikey, that's quite a mouthful.
- 1326
- 01:47:57,750 --> 01:47:59,161
- - No author?
- - No.
- 1327
- 01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:01,787
- You can't ever publish it anyway.
- 1328
- 01:48:01,917 --> 01:48:04,159
- You'd need permission
- and it's not mine to give.
- 1329
- 01:48:05,125 --> 01:48:06,582
- This is just for you.
- 1330
- 01:48:06,708 --> 01:48:08,244
- Thank you.
- 1331
- 01:48:09,167 --> 01:48:11,124
- - But...
- - Hmm?
- 1332
- 01:48:11,250 --> 01:48:14,869
- I will write you another book.
- Possibly another after that.
- 1333
- 01:48:15,500 --> 01:48:17,412
- This makes me excessively happy to hear.
- 1334
- 01:48:19,750 --> 01:48:21,662
- Something's opened up, Sidney.
- 1335
- 01:48:21,792 --> 01:48:25,160
- Somehow the "doing" has given me
- a tremendous appetite for more.
- 1336
- 01:48:27,750 --> 01:48:29,366
- Which brings me to a business question.
- 1337
- 01:48:29,500 --> 01:48:31,332
- Business? Good.
- 1338
- 01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:33,741
- I'm all ears.
- 1339
- 01:48:35,083 --> 01:48:38,747
- Have I still got a little money?
- 1340
- 01:48:39,458 --> 01:48:41,450
- Ah...
- 1341
- 01:48:41,583 --> 01:48:43,040
- No.
- 1342
- 01:48:43,708 --> 01:48:46,121
- No, you're quite rich.
- 1343
- 01:48:46,250 --> 01:48:47,707
- Huh!
- 1344
- 01:48:47,833 --> 01:48:49,916
- Well, I only need some.
- 1345
- 01:48:50,042 --> 01:48:52,750
- There's a property
- I may be interested in buying.
- 1346
- 01:48:54,333 --> 01:48:56,871
- But I need to go and see
- if it's still available
- 1347
- 01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:58,992
- and if they'll have me.
- 1348
- 01:49:00,542 --> 01:49:03,080
- Darling girl,
- anyone would be lucky to have you.
- 1349
- 01:49:04,917 --> 01:49:07,580
- And I am so lucky to have you.
- 1350
- 01:49:07,708 --> 01:49:09,290
- Hmm.
- 1351
- 01:49:14,542 --> 01:49:16,955
- True.
- 1352
- 01:49:17,083 --> 01:49:18,540
- All right, all right.
- 1353
- 01:49:18,667 --> 01:49:21,034
- Off you go.
- I'm a very busy man.
- 1354
- 01:49:21,167 --> 01:49:22,908
- All right.
- 1355
- 01:49:27,000 --> 01:49:28,332
- Just so you know...
- 1356
- 01:49:29,292 --> 01:49:31,534
- I'm still available to give you away.
- 1357
- 01:49:32,833 --> 01:49:35,541
- Should the occasion ever present itself.
- 1358
- 01:49:37,125 --> 01:49:38,661
- Thank you, Sidney.
- 1359
- 01:49:39,750 --> 01:49:40,991
- For all of it.
- 1360
- 01:49:57,333 --> 01:49:58,915
- Granddad?
- 1361
- 01:50:00,125 --> 01:50:02,333
- It's addressed to the Society.
- 1362
- 01:50:06,833 --> 01:50:08,369
- From Juliet.
- 1363
- 01:50:35,542 --> 01:50:39,161
- Out loud, son. Out loud.

- London. Wherever she is.

- Don't let her marry that Yank.

- I don't believe she is.

- - How do you know?
- - She told us.

- Mind Amelia. I'll be back soon.

- - Bye-bye.
- - Bye.
- 1410

- Well, where does she say that?
- 1411
- 01:53:36,292 --> 01:53:40,081
- Come on. Let's go and make some cakes
- for when they get back.

- Amelia, are you not going to read this?

- I don't care for everyone
- to see me crying. I will later.

- Hello.
- 1426
- 01:55:13,083 --> 01:55:14,164
- Where are you off to?
- 1427
- 01:55:16,375 --> 01:55:19,118
- I'm on my way to find you.
- 1428
- 01:55:20,417 --> 01:55:21,783
- Me?
- 1429
- 01:55:22,875 --> 01:55:25,242
- - Really?
- - Yes.
- 1430
- 01:55:27,042 --> 01:55:29,534
- Well, I wrote you a letter
- on the boat just now.
- 1431
- 01:55:31,000 --> 01:55:33,242

- 1433
- 01:55:41,500 --> 01:55:43,287
- Well...
- 1434
- 01:55:43,417 --> 01:55:47,491
- This is convenient because I was
- on my way to find you as well.
- 1435
- 01:55:52,417 --> 01:55:53,453
- Juliet...
- 1436

- I'm in love with you.
- So I thought I'd ask.
- 1438
- 01:56:10,500 --> 01:56:12,742
- Wow! My God.
- 1439
- 01:56:13,750 --> 01:56:15,457
- Yes.
- 1440
- 01:56:15,583 --> 01:56:18,246

- "Lysander presently opening his eyes,
- and seeing his dear Hermia,

- "And they began to talk over
- the adventures of the night,

- That's all fine,
- but where is the story?
- 1456
- 01:58:04,375 --> 01:58:05,411
- Hear, hear.
- 1457
- 01:58:05,542 --> 01:58:08,250

- It's what's going on
- inside the people.
- 1462
- 01:58:15,792 --> 01:58:17,408
- It's the psychology of the people.
- 1463
- 01:58:17,542 --> 01:58:22,116
- It's the psychology of
- the people going on a boat ride, Isola.
- 1464
- 01:58:22,250 --> 01:58:24,617
- Eben!

- "Three years?"
- 1469

- - "Then berries and oysters."
- - "Oysters?"
- 1470

- Well done, Grandpa.
