- 00:02:43,232 --> 00:02:44,768
- Madam!
- 3
- 00:02:50,607 --> 00:02:52,443
- Yah! Push!
- 4
- 00:03:12,231 --> 00:03:13,599
- Hey.
- 5
- 00:03:15,266 --> 00:03:17,102
- Come on!
- 6
- 00:04:57,409 --> 00:04:59,575
- You must be tired.
- 7
- 00:04:59,577 --> 00:05:01,278
- I am quite well.
- 8
- 00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:02,713
- A supper has been prepared.
- 9
- 00:05:02,715 --> 00:05:05,749
- We can have it brought up
- to your chambers if you like.
- 10
- 00:05:05,751 --> 00:05:07,318
- Yes. Thank you.
- 11
- 00:05:12,726 --> 00:05:14,358
- How long are you staying?
- 12
- 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,960
- At Holyrood?
- 13
- 00:05:15,962 --> 00:05:18,362
- In Scotland.
- 14
- 00:05:18,364 --> 00:05:20,732
- Are you already planning
- my departure?
- 15
- 00:05:20,734 --> 00:05:22,467
- Of course not.
- 16
- 00:05:22,469 --> 00:05:25,472
- We've long awaited your return.
- 17
- 00:05:27,641 --> 00:05:30,843
- Kate will show you
- to your chambers.
- 18
- 00:05:30,845 --> 00:05:32,447
- This way, madam.
- 19
- 00:05:43,925 --> 00:05:45,926
- Lord Bothwell,
- 20
- 00:05:45,928 --> 00:05:48,495
- do you intend to stay as well?
- 21
- 00:05:48,497 --> 00:05:51,363
- I swore an oath to the queen's
- mother to protect her.
- 22
- 00:05:51,365 --> 00:05:52,800
- Well, she is
- well protected here.
- 23
- 00:05:52,802 --> 00:05:55,569
- I'll uphold my oath,
- just the same.
- 24
- 00:05:55,571 --> 00:05:59,406
- And what reward
- does your loyalty command?
- 25
- 00:05:59,408 --> 00:06:01,978
- I'm driven by duty.
- Not ambition.
- 26
- 00:06:11,654 --> 00:06:14,789
- Madam, your cousin
- has returned from France.
- 27
- 00:06:14,791 --> 00:06:18,060
- Her protector is Lord Bothwell,
- an able soldier.
- 28
- 00:06:18,062 --> 00:06:20,796
- So, she comes ready for war.
- 29
- 00:06:20,798 --> 00:06:22,431
- She may well depart
- once married,
- 30
- 00:06:22,433 --> 00:06:24,067
- but I cannot profess
- to know her purpose.
- 31
- 00:06:24,069 --> 00:06:25,801
- What says her brother?
- 32
- 00:06:25,803 --> 00:06:28,337
- Moray is only
- her half brother, madam.
- 33
- 00:06:28,339 --> 00:06:30,541
- I believe his allegiance
- is fully with us.
- 34
- 00:06:31,675 --> 00:06:32,842
- What proof?
- 35
- 00:06:32,844 --> 00:06:35,611
- He pledges to protect the
- Protestant Church from Mary.
- 36
- 00:06:35,613 --> 00:06:37,680
- And yet he has no power
- to make such a pledge
- 37
- 00:06:37,682 --> 00:06:40,552
- - if he is no longer regent.
- - The nobles respect him.
- 38
- 00:06:42,420 --> 00:06:43,920
- But can he control her?
- 39
- 00:06:43,922 --> 00:06:46,723
- If she is anything
- like our queen,
- 40
- 00:06:46,725 --> 00:06:49,426
- then she does not yield
- to a bridle.
- 41
- 00:06:49,428 --> 00:06:52,530
- So says our Master of the Horse.
- 42
- 00:06:52,532 --> 00:06:55,201
- By "bridal,"
- do you speak of matrimony?
- 43
- 00:07:04,578 --> 00:07:05,911
- You may tell Scotland
- 44
- 00:07:05,913 --> 00:07:09,081
- that we wish to love
- the Stuarts as our kin.
- 45
- 00:07:09,083 --> 00:07:11,885
- But they must love us
- in return.
- 46
- 00:07:16,124 --> 00:07:18,690
- Madam, if I may speak?
- 47
- 00:07:18,692 --> 00:07:20,660
- While she is on this island,
- 48
- 00:07:20,662 --> 00:07:22,795
- she must bow to you,
- not to Rome.
- 49
- 00:07:22,797 --> 00:07:24,864
- Our Catholics must know
- that a papist
- 50
- 00:07:24,866 --> 00:07:28,534
- will never again sit
- on the English throne.
- 51
- 00:07:28,536 --> 00:07:30,503
- What would you suggest?
- 52
- 00:07:30,505 --> 00:07:32,873
- Kill her hope,
- and hopeless, she may return
- 53
- 00:07:32,875 --> 00:07:35,376
- to the comfort
- of the continent.
- 54
- 00:07:52,863 --> 00:07:54,631
- Oh!
- 55
- 00:07:55,732 --> 00:07:57,866
- Bravo, monsieur.
- 56
- 00:07:57,868 --> 00:08:00,501
- Is your hand
- as good as your French?
- 57
- 00:08:00,503 --> 00:08:02,873
- My hand, madam?
- 58
- 00:08:08,746 --> 00:08:12,383
- We are two sisters
- bound by womanhood.
- 59
- 00:08:14,652 --> 00:08:17,486
- Two princes on the same island.
- 60
- 00:08:17,488 --> 00:08:19,122
- <i>Ruling side by side,</i>
- 61
- 00:08:19,124 --> 00:08:21,725
- <i>we must do so in harmony.</i>
- 62
- 00:08:21,727 --> 00:08:22,993
- <i>And not through a treaty</i>
- 63
- 00:08:22,995 --> 00:08:25,664
- <i>drafted by men
- lesser than ourselves.</i>
- 64
- 00:08:26,899 --> 00:08:31,001
- <i>I wish us to make a treaty
- of two queens.</i>
- 65
- 00:08:31,003 --> 00:08:32,904
- <i>I would acknowledge
- your rightful place</i>
- 66
- 00:08:32,906 --> 00:08:37,543
- <i>on the English throne were you
- to name me your successor.</i>
- 67
- 00:08:38,577 --> 00:08:40,845
- <i>I hope we might meet in person,</i>
- 68
- 00:08:40,847 --> 00:08:43,016
- <i>that I might embrace you...</i>
- 69
- 00:08:44,952 --> 00:08:47,618
- <i>...and we might resolve
- our destinies.</i>
- 70
- 00:08:47,620 --> 00:08:49,857
- What do you see, Bess?
- 71
- 00:08:55,829 --> 00:08:57,631
- Charming.
- 72
- 00:08:59,533 --> 00:09:02,003
- Fair, if the painter
- does not lie.
- 73
- 00:09:04,839 --> 00:09:06,540
- Young.
- 74
- 00:09:08,077 --> 00:09:09,711
- Clever.
- 75
- 00:09:11,146 --> 00:09:13,613
- Confident.
- 76
- 00:09:13,615 --> 00:09:16,516
- She would have no trouble
- securing a husband,
- 77
- 00:09:16,518 --> 00:09:18,518
- even without her throne.
- 78
- 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,589
- Nor would you, madam.
- 79
- 00:09:23,125 --> 00:09:25,027
- Forgive me.
- 80
- 00:09:36,306 --> 00:09:39,673
- <i>Elizabeth will not
- accept my hand in marriage.</i>
- 81
- 00:09:39,675 --> 00:09:40,909
- You cannot be certain.
- 82
- 00:09:40,911 --> 00:09:43,812
- I know,
- because I know her heart.
- 83
- 00:09:43,814 --> 00:09:46,648
- The moment I betray it with
- ambition, I lose her heart.
- 84
- 00:09:46,650 --> 00:09:48,884
- Would you rather
- she lose her crown?
- 85
- 00:09:48,886 --> 00:09:49,885
- You exaggerate.
- 86
- 00:09:49,887 --> 00:09:52,822
- How much blood has been spilled
- in Rome's name?
- 87
- 00:09:52,824 --> 00:09:55,924
- If a Catholic queen
- bears a child before our own,
- 88
- 00:09:55,926 --> 00:09:58,995
- have no doubt
- blood will spill again.
- 89
- 00:09:58,997 --> 00:10:00,596
- Muster your courage.
- 90
- 00:10:00,598 --> 00:10:02,232
- Save us from her reticence.
- 91
- 00:10:02,234 --> 00:10:04,634
- She will not produce a child
- because her council
- 92
- 00:10:04,636 --> 00:10:06,704
- <i>fears the Queen of Scots.</i>
- 93
- 00:10:09,842 --> 00:10:10,941
- Aye.
- 94
- 00:10:10,943 --> 00:10:12,876
- <i>Nor will she marry.</i>
- 95
- 00:10:12,878 --> 00:10:16,847
- <i>She suspects all suitors
- of wanting her throne.</i>
- 96
- 00:10:16,849 --> 00:10:18,282
- - She will not have me.
- - Nor would I
- 97
- 00:10:18,284 --> 00:10:22,053
- have a commoner be king
- were we not in need of an heir.
- 98
- 00:10:22,055 --> 00:10:25,123
- I have her trust;
- you have her affections.
- 99
- 00:10:25,125 --> 00:10:27,591
- - You can succeed where I c...
- - Good morning, William.
- 100
- 00:10:27,593 --> 00:10:28,695
- Madam.
- 101
- 00:10:32,166 --> 00:10:34,333
- Robert.
- 102
- 00:10:34,335 --> 00:10:36,335
- Resplendent.
- 103
- 00:10:36,337 --> 00:10:38,172
- Would you?
- 104
- 00:10:51,952 --> 00:10:54,354
- That's William Maitland
- of Lethington.
- 105
- 00:10:54,356 --> 00:10:56,658
- Secretary of State.
- 106
- 00:11:01,696 --> 00:11:04,566
- John Knox, Church of Scotland.
- 107
- 00:11:10,139 --> 00:11:12,041
- Uh... loose string, ah?
- 108
- 00:11:17,381 --> 00:11:19,115
- Let us begin.
- 109
- 00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,760
- - Lord Lennox.
- - My Lord.
- 110
- 00:12:03,762 --> 00:12:05,063
- I would ask our mistress
- 111
- 00:12:05,065 --> 00:12:07,030
- to beseech Queen Mary
- that I be allowed
- 112
- 00:12:07,032 --> 00:12:09,833
- - to return to Scotland so...
- - This is not the place.
- 113
- 00:12:09,835 --> 00:12:12,103
- It would be wise to have
- a Catholic servant there.
- 114
- 00:12:12,105 --> 00:12:13,905
- - My influence...
- - It is your influence
- 115
- 00:12:13,907 --> 00:12:17,043
- which emboldened papists here!
- 116
- 00:12:26,220 --> 00:12:27,888
- You humiliate yourself, Father.
- 117
- 00:12:56,953 --> 00:12:59,788
- But your queen is
- in Scotland now.
- 118
- 00:13:06,162 --> 00:13:09,764
- When my beloved François
- passed to God,
- 119
- 00:13:09,766 --> 00:13:13,070
- I could have married
- any number of suitors.
- 120
- 00:13:14,471 --> 00:13:18,008
- Portugal, Denmark, Sweden.
- 121
- 00:13:18,909 --> 00:13:20,842
- I declined them all.
- 122
- 00:13:20,844 --> 00:13:22,844
- Just as I would not have
- 123
- 00:13:22,846 --> 00:13:26,416
- a political marriage
- imposed upon me...
- 124
- 00:13:26,418 --> 00:13:30,788
- I will not impose an uncertain
- fate upon my subjects.
- 125
- 00:13:34,359 --> 00:13:38,861
- They remain free to worship
- however they so choose,
- 126
- 00:13:38,863 --> 00:13:40,866
- Catholic or Protestant.
- 127
- 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,407
- Pastor, you look displeased
- with our tolerance.
- 128
- 00:13:49,409 --> 00:13:52,810
- Any realm that is ruled by the
- Pope is not tolerant, madam.
- 129
- 00:13:52,812 --> 00:13:54,346
- It is enslaved.
- 130
- 00:13:54,348 --> 00:13:56,216
- Stand when I address you.
- 131
- 00:13:59,885 --> 00:14:02,153
- There is one true God,
- 132
- 00:14:02,155 --> 00:14:04,490
- and therefore
- one true religion.
- 133
- 00:14:04,492 --> 00:14:07,025
- Such rhetoric incites revolt.
- 134
- 00:14:07,027 --> 00:14:08,994
- If a prince strays
- from God's will,
- 135
- 00:14:08,996 --> 00:14:12,565
- it is not in doubt
- that they may be resisted.
- 136
- 00:14:12,567 --> 00:14:14,933
- And in your case...
- 137
- 00:14:14,935 --> 00:14:16,969
- as with all women,
- 138
- 00:14:16,971 --> 00:14:21,240
- their sight is but blindness,
- 139
- 00:14:21,242 --> 00:14:23,342
- their strength weakness,
- 140
- 00:14:23,344 --> 00:14:26,346
- her counsel foolishness,
- 141
- 00:14:26,348 --> 00:14:29,883
- her judgment frenzy.
- 142
- 00:14:29,885 --> 00:14:33,088
- Are we to abide
- a papist and a woman both?
- 143
- 00:14:43,132 --> 00:14:46,933
- Well, then I perceive that
- my subjects shall obey you
- 144
- 00:14:46,935 --> 00:14:48,903
- and not me.
- 145
- 00:14:48,905 --> 00:14:50,605
- May I sit, madam?
- 146
- 00:14:50,607 --> 00:14:51,675
- No.
- 147
- 00:14:53,344 --> 00:14:57,146
- You may remove yourself
- from this council and my court.
- 148
- 00:14:57,148 --> 00:15:01,285
- My council is among
- the faithful disciples I serve.
- 149
- 00:15:07,325 --> 00:15:11,429
- We have as little need
- of this court as it has of us.
- 150
- 00:15:15,467 --> 00:15:17,969
- I pray for your soul, madam.
- 151
- 00:15:28,348 --> 00:15:31,415
- I beg you to reconsider.
- He has the trust of the people.
- 152
- 00:15:31,417 --> 00:15:33,984
- Did I not give deference
- to his faith?
- 153
- 00:15:33,986 --> 00:15:35,985
- Yes, but...
- we must be delicate.
- 154
- 00:15:35,987 --> 00:15:37,522
- Allegiance does not happen
- by proclamation.
- 155
- 00:15:37,524 --> 00:15:39,223
- Where is his delicacy?
- 156
- 00:15:39,225 --> 00:15:41,693
- That he should speak
- to a monarch so?
- 157
- 00:15:41,695 --> 00:15:43,394
- Would he challenge
- Elizabeth thus?
- 158
- 00:15:43,396 --> 00:15:46,365
- With what cause? He would
- welcome a Protestant queen.
- 159
- 00:15:46,367 --> 00:15:49,668
- Which is precisely why we must
- not push him into her arms.
- 160
- 00:15:49,670 --> 00:15:51,871
- Show him love.
- 161
- 00:15:53,006 --> 00:15:55,240
- You are wise, brother.
- 162
- 00:15:55,242 --> 00:15:58,378
- There are times for wisdom,
- and there are times for love,
- 163
- 00:15:58,380 --> 00:16:01,282
- but there are also times
- for strength.
- 164
- 00:16:33,483 --> 00:16:35,452
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
- 165
- 00:16:37,722 --> 00:16:40,656
- Your queen asks for approval,
- 166
- 00:16:40,658 --> 00:16:44,727
- but how am I to grant her wish
- when she offers no suitors?
- 167
- 00:16:44,729 --> 00:16:47,395
- She would prefer
- an English nobleman.
- 168
- 00:16:47,397 --> 00:16:48,531
- And a Protestant.
- 169
- 00:16:48,533 --> 00:16:51,099
- If it pleases Your Grace.
- 170
- 00:16:51,101 --> 00:16:54,639
- As long as what pleases me
- pleases Elizabeth.
- 171
- 00:16:59,210 --> 00:17:01,077
- Perhaps I should wed you.
- 172
- 00:17:01,079 --> 00:17:03,012
- Then I would have
- my English nobleman.
- 173
- 00:17:03,014 --> 00:17:05,348
- I do not think God wills it.
- 174
- 00:17:05,350 --> 00:17:07,584
- If it be God's will
- for Mary to marry,
- 175
- 00:17:07,586 --> 00:17:10,220
- then Mary will marry,
- and only who God intends
- 176
- 00:17:10,222 --> 00:17:12,225
- for Mary to marry.
- 177
- 00:17:13,293 --> 00:17:15,260
- I pray he wills
- Elizabeth marry, too.
- 178
- 00:17:22,268 --> 00:17:23,801
- No, no, no.
- 179
- 00:17:23,803 --> 00:17:25,138
- No, no, no. Oh!
- 180
- 00:17:36,217 --> 00:17:38,350
- You share good company.
- 181
- 00:17:38,352 --> 00:17:42,254
- Maitland dotes
- on Mistress Fleming.
- 182
- 00:17:42,256 --> 00:17:45,658
- The only difference being
- that he does not have a wife
- 183
- 00:17:45,660 --> 00:17:47,528
- as you do.
- 184
- 00:17:58,573 --> 00:18:02,676
- <i>We have a scourge
- upon our land.</i>
- 185
- 00:18:02,678 --> 00:18:06,182
- 'Tis worse than pestilence
- and famine.
- 186
- 00:18:07,148 --> 00:18:10,818
- 'Tis a woman with a crown.
- 187
- 00:18:10,820 --> 00:18:13,455
- Who only pretends
- to worship Christ,
- 188
- 00:18:13,457 --> 00:18:17,294
- when in truth
- she kneels before the Pope.
- 189
- 00:18:19,128 --> 00:18:22,597
- We do not take instruction
- from Rome.
- 190
- 00:18:22,599 --> 00:18:28,169
- We resist those who would
- tempt us with indulgences,
- 191
- 00:18:28,171 --> 00:18:31,740
- deny those who worship luxury,
- 192
- 00:18:31,742 --> 00:18:35,645
- respect not those
- who flaunt their excesses
- 193
- 00:18:35,647 --> 00:18:39,549
- and whore themselves to wealth
- and the degradations
- 194
- 00:18:39,551 --> 00:18:41,252
- <i>of the flesh.</i>
- 195
- 00:18:42,620 --> 00:18:44,390
- No.
- 196
- 00:19:04,811 --> 00:19:07,579
- Madame.
- 197
- 00:19:07,581 --> 00:19:10,715
- Just be wary of these men.
- 198
- 00:19:10,717 --> 00:19:14,554
- Their love is not the same
- as their respect.
- 199
- 00:19:25,299 --> 00:19:27,499
- Might I ask...
- 200
- 00:19:27,501 --> 00:19:31,170
- since we've not
- known it ourselves...
- 201
- 00:19:31,172 --> 00:19:33,238
- what is it like?
- 202
- 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,674
- To have a man?
- 203
- 00:19:35,676 --> 00:19:37,479
- Mm-hmm.
- 204
- 00:19:39,448 --> 00:19:41,516
- I have only lain with François.
- 205
- 00:19:42,484 --> 00:19:44,250
- He shook terribly from fright.
- 206
- 00:19:44,252 --> 00:19:46,555
- The poor boy did his best.
- 207
- 00:19:48,925 --> 00:19:51,257
- But it was over
- before it began.
- 208
- 00:19:51,259 --> 00:19:53,394
- So y-you never...
- 209
- 00:19:53,396 --> 00:19:56,397
- No. We tried but once.
- 210
- 00:19:56,399 --> 00:19:58,833
- Beauty's fading flower
- 211
- 00:19:58,835 --> 00:20:02,236
- Grows ever fresh with her in heavenly wise
- 212
- 00:20:02,238 --> 00:20:04,539
- Suffice that Love
- hath built his bower
- 213
- 00:20:04,541 --> 00:20:09,179
- - Between my lady's lively shining eyes.
- - Mm.
- 214
- 00:20:14,551 --> 00:20:16,819
- I cannot, Robert.
- 215
- 00:20:16,821 --> 00:20:19,556
- You know that.
- 216
- 00:20:24,429 --> 00:20:27,363
- I should like to marry again,
- 217
- 00:20:27,365 --> 00:20:30,402
- to know how it feels
- to have a man fully.
- 218
- 00:20:34,305 --> 00:20:36,609
- But not if I am owned.
- 219
- 00:20:41,514 --> 00:20:42,682
- You're early.
- 220
- 00:21:06,606 --> 00:21:09,742
- Mary will seek
- a marriage that strengthens
- 221
- 00:21:09,744 --> 00:21:11,476
- her claim to your throne
- 222
- 00:21:11,478 --> 00:21:14,215
- and makes
- her children Catholics.
- 223
- 00:21:16,952 --> 00:21:19,821
- What sayest our ambassador?
- 224
- 00:21:21,023 --> 00:21:23,622
- She feigns disinterest, madam,
- 225
- 00:21:23,624 --> 00:21:27,359
- and informs me that the matter
- of choice in marriage
- 226
- 00:21:27,361 --> 00:21:29,732
- is perhaps a matter
- best left to God.
- 227
- 00:21:31,767 --> 00:21:35,036
- She is formidable, madam.
- 228
- 00:21:35,038 --> 00:21:39,773
- We should marry her
- to someone loyal to our queen,
- 229
- 00:21:39,775 --> 00:21:41,745
- someone you control.
- 230
- 00:21:47,383 --> 00:21:49,985
- Do not ask this of me.
- 231
- 00:21:49,987 --> 00:21:53,355
- If you wed her, she is ours.
- 232
- 00:21:53,357 --> 00:21:54,823
- And what of us?
- 233
- 00:21:54,825 --> 00:21:56,759
- What "us"?
- 234
- 00:21:56,761 --> 00:21:58,961
- You, Elizabeth...
- 235
- 00:21:58,963 --> 00:22:01,532
- and I, your Robert.
- 236
- 00:22:03,567 --> 00:22:06,535
- Marry the beautiful
- Queen of Scots,
- 237
- 00:22:06,537 --> 00:22:09,274
- and we can control her.
- 238
- 00:22:11,442 --> 00:22:13,343
- With Mary,
- you, too, become a prince.
- 239
- 00:22:13,345 --> 00:22:15,545
- If I am noble enough
- for one queen,
- 240
- 00:22:15,547 --> 00:22:18,717
- I am noble enough for another.
- 241
- 00:22:20,086 --> 00:22:22,721
- Elizabeth.
- 242
- 00:22:28,561 --> 00:22:30,897
- England is not Scotland.
- 243
- 00:23:01,729 --> 00:23:04,397
- <i>We would delight in holding</i>
- 244
- 00:23:04,399 --> 00:23:06,833
- <i>our sister's hand in ours.</i>
- 245
- 00:23:06,835 --> 00:23:08,869
- <i>Let us settle
- on a meeting place</i>
- 246
- 00:23:08,871 --> 00:23:11,673
- <i>before the summer
- brings discomfort.</i>
- 247
- 00:23:12,842 --> 00:23:15,075
- <i>Let our nations
- cherish each other,</i>
- 248
- 00:23:15,077 --> 00:23:17,047
- <i>as we would.</i>
- 249
- 00:23:18,581 --> 00:23:21,350
- <i>Two kingdoms united.</i>
- 250
- 00:23:24,019 --> 00:23:25,854
- <i>Meanwhile, accept this portrait</i>
- 251
- 00:23:25,856 --> 00:23:28,090
- <i>as a sign of gratitude
- for yours.</i>
- 252
- 00:23:28,092 --> 00:23:31,491
- <i>And please accept this suitor,
- who presents</i>
- 253
- 00:23:31,493 --> 00:23:33,595
- <i>both his love and mine...</i>
- 254
- 00:23:33,597 --> 00:23:36,466
- <i>the Earl of Leicester...</i>
- 255
- 00:23:37,634 --> 00:23:40,371
- <i>...Lord Robert Dudley.</i>
- 256
- 00:23:45,743 --> 00:23:47,676
- Do you think it might stand
- with my honor
- 257
- 00:23:47,678 --> 00:23:49,981
- to marry my sister's subject?
- 258
- 00:23:51,215 --> 00:23:54,650
- It is true that an earl
- is not a prince.
- 259
- 00:23:54,652 --> 00:23:56,553
- Surely there can be
- no greater honor
- 260
- 00:23:56,555 --> 00:23:58,822
- than to match yourself
- with a nobleman
- 261
- 00:23:58,824 --> 00:24:01,491
- by whom you inherit
- such a kingdom as England.
- 262
- 00:24:01,493 --> 00:24:03,760
- I have such inheritance
- by blood,
- 263
- 00:24:03,762 --> 00:24:06,197
- regardless of who I marry
- or do not marry.
- 264
- 00:24:06,199 --> 00:24:08,232
- Hmm.
- 265
- 00:24:08,234 --> 00:24:11,534
- We must discuss succession
- before marriage,
- 266
- 00:24:11,536 --> 00:24:13,938
- not the other way around.
- 267
- 00:24:13,940 --> 00:24:15,873
- We hope we
- do not vex thee, Earl.
- 268
- 00:24:15,875 --> 00:24:18,809
- Not in the least, madam.
- I appreciate your honesty.
- 269
- 00:24:18,811 --> 00:24:22,548
- We see why our cousin
- is so fond of the earl.
- 270
- 00:24:26,486 --> 00:24:28,221
- I shall respect
- Elizabeth's crown
- 271
- 00:24:28,223 --> 00:24:30,555
- as soon as she names me
- its successor.
- 272
- 00:24:30,557 --> 00:24:32,025
- Uh, madam, my queen will not...
- 273
- 00:24:32,027 --> 00:24:33,892
- If she has any concerns
- about this proposal,
- 274
- 00:24:33,894 --> 00:24:36,696
- she may express them
- to me directly.
- 275
- 00:24:36,698 --> 00:24:38,964
- Plans proceed for us to meet next month.
- 276
- 00:24:38,966 --> 00:24:40,967
- Aye, madam, in York.
- 277
- 00:24:40,969 --> 00:24:43,938
- We shall accomplish far more
- without envoys between us.
- 278
- 00:24:47,976 --> 00:24:51,846
- How like is it
- unto your mistress' face?
- 279
- 00:25:24,148 --> 00:25:27,484
- Halt! Halt!
- 280
- 00:25:38,629 --> 00:25:39,996
- Why can't she meet me in York?
- 281
- 00:25:39,998 --> 00:25:41,865
- Could her council
- not wait till her return?
- 282
- 00:25:41,867 --> 00:25:43,632
- Their business
- was urgent, madam.
- 283
- 00:25:43,634 --> 00:25:45,168
- The Huguenots sent an envoy.
- 284
- 00:25:45,170 --> 00:25:46,837
- And she receives them?
- 285
- 00:25:46,839 --> 00:25:49,106
- England wishes
- no more bloodshed.
- 286
- 00:25:49,108 --> 00:25:52,644
- Being from France yourself,
- you must understand.
- 287
- 00:25:53,979 --> 00:25:57,148
- You may tell my sister
- that we pray for swift peace,
- 288
- 00:25:57,150 --> 00:25:58,983
- that we may meet soon.
- 289
- 00:25:58,985 --> 00:26:00,618
- I will tell her at once.
- 290
- 00:26:00,620 --> 00:26:03,021
- Stay with us the night
- at Holyrood.
- 291
- 00:26:03,023 --> 00:26:06,159
- I'm certain Mistress Beaton
- would welcome your company.
- 292
- 00:26:08,262 --> 00:26:09,996
- Thank you, madam.
- 293
- 00:26:14,834 --> 00:26:16,869
- She hides behind her council.
- 294
- 00:26:16,871 --> 00:26:18,370
- You do not think she postpones?
- 295
- 00:26:18,372 --> 00:26:21,241
- I don't think she intends
- to meet until you recognize
- 296
- 00:26:21,243 --> 00:26:23,042
- her legitimacy.
- 297
- 00:26:23,044 --> 00:26:24,676
- A false promise, then.
- 298
- 00:26:24,678 --> 00:26:27,179
- Retaliation, perhaps,
- for refusing the treaty.
- 299
- 00:26:27,181 --> 00:26:28,815
- For refusing Dudley.
- 300
- 00:26:28,817 --> 00:26:31,683
- This is a matter of the heart,
- not the state.
- 301
- 00:26:31,685 --> 00:26:33,720
- They don't mix well.
- 302
- 00:26:33,722 --> 00:26:35,991
- Wouldn't you say,
- Mistress Fleming?
- 303
- 00:26:37,226 --> 00:26:38,958
- I'm afraid I don't understand.
- 304
- 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,095
- Your mistress mocks
- our affections.
- 305
- 00:26:41,097 --> 00:26:42,896
- Not so.
- 306
- 00:26:42,898 --> 00:26:45,201
- They sometimes have value.
- 307
- 00:27:08,993 --> 00:27:10,826
- It's late.
- 308
- 00:27:10,828 --> 00:27:12,862
- I must attend to my mistress.
- 309
- 00:27:12,864 --> 00:27:14,263
- No.
- 310
- 00:27:14,265 --> 00:27:15,897
- Don't attend. Don't attend.
- 311
- 00:27:15,899 --> 00:27:18,303
- Think of your wife.
- 312
- 00:27:19,970 --> 00:27:21,973
- Yeah.
- 313
- 00:27:23,408 --> 00:27:25,708
- Nothing we spoke of.
- 314
- 00:27:25,710 --> 00:27:27,979
- Of course not.
- 315
- 00:27:43,996 --> 00:27:45,296
- The pox, madame.
- 316
- 00:27:45,298 --> 00:27:47,065
- There is no envoy.
- 317
- 00:27:47,067 --> 00:27:49,300
- She has the pox.
- 318
- 00:27:49,302 --> 00:27:51,238
- How grave?
- 319
- 00:27:52,306 --> 00:27:54,107
- Quite grave.
- 320
- 00:27:58,212 --> 00:28:01,113
- Go rouse my brother.
- 321
- 00:28:01,115 --> 00:28:03,050
- Dress me.
- 322
- 00:28:07,355 --> 00:28:08,890
- Do you think me sinful?
- 323
- 00:28:16,331 --> 00:28:19,399
- He has his plan.
- 324
- 00:28:19,401 --> 00:28:22,068
- <i>It will please you to know
- that I have warmed</i>
- 325
- 00:28:22,070 --> 00:28:24,838
- to the prospect
- of wedding Lord Dudley.
- 326
- 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,075
- We shall do so
- upon one condition:
- 327
- 00:28:28,077 --> 00:28:30,344
- <i>While we wish you
- a long and healthy life</i>
- 328
- 00:28:30,346 --> 00:28:33,347
- <i>and that no injury
- or illness befall you,</i>
- 329
- 00:28:33,349 --> 00:28:36,150
- we shall only do you the favor
- 330
- 00:28:36,152 --> 00:28:38,486
- of betrothing
- your special friend,
- 331
- 00:28:38,488 --> 00:28:41,024
- Lord Robert Dudley...
- 332
- 00:28:42,825 --> 00:28:45,296
- ...once you name us heir.
- 333
- 00:28:55,172 --> 00:28:56,905
- She knows.
- 334
- 00:28:56,907 --> 00:28:59,508
- My "special friend."
- 335
- 00:28:59,510 --> 00:29:02,245
- She wants him.
- She wants him for her.
- 336
- 00:29:02,247 --> 00:29:04,380
- My Robert.
- 337
- 00:29:04,382 --> 00:29:05,915
- My crown!
- 338
- 00:29:05,917 --> 00:29:07,219
- Quickly.
- 339
- 00:29:09,788 --> 00:29:12,156
- Get out! Out! Out! Quickly out!
- 340
- 00:29:12,158 --> 00:29:14,258
- Out, out! Out now!
- 341
- 00:29:14,260 --> 00:29:16,260
- Out, out, out, out, out!
- 342
- 00:29:16,262 --> 00:29:18,429
- - Out! Out!
- - Out!
- 343
- 00:29:18,431 --> 00:29:19,430
- Get out!
- 344
- 00:29:19,432 --> 00:29:20,532
- - Robert.
- - Out!
- 345
- 00:29:20,534 --> 00:29:22,832
- Out, out! Get out!
- 346
- 00:29:22,834 --> 00:29:25,836
- - Look away! Look away!
- - Out! Out!
- 347
- 00:29:25,838 --> 00:29:27,805
- Get out! Out!
- 348
- 00:29:27,807 --> 00:29:29,376
- Look away! Out!
- 349
- 00:29:30,544 --> 00:29:32,811
- Out! Out!
- 350
- 00:29:32,813 --> 00:29:34,348
- Enough!
- 351
- 00:29:56,071 --> 00:29:58,172
- I am yours.
- 352
- 00:30:00,908 --> 00:30:02,877
- Forever yours.
- 353
- 00:30:09,184 --> 00:30:10,819
- But how...
- 354
- 00:30:13,856 --> 00:30:17,926
- ...am I to refuse her
- what I myself suggested?
- 355
- 00:30:30,441 --> 00:30:32,243
- Oh...
- 356
- 00:30:35,912 --> 00:30:37,613
- You look exquisite,
- mademoiselle.
- 357
- 00:30:37,615 --> 00:30:42,186
- Is it a sin that I feel more
- a sister to you than a brother?
- 358
- 00:30:44,389 --> 00:30:46,623
- Forgive me.
- 359
- 00:30:46,625 --> 00:30:49,328
- I-I forget myself
- in your company.
- 360
- 00:30:53,498 --> 00:30:55,833
- Be whoever you wish with us.
- 361
- 00:30:56,636 --> 00:30:59,071
- You make for a lovely sister.
- 362
- 00:31:06,412 --> 00:31:08,181
- Oh...
- 363
- 00:31:11,184 --> 00:31:13,286
- Enter.
- 364
- 00:31:19,392 --> 00:31:21,562
- We have visi...
- 365
- 00:31:23,430 --> 00:31:25,399
- We have visitors.
- 366
- 00:31:34,942 --> 00:31:37,412
- They are Stuarts?
- 367
- 00:31:38,613 --> 00:31:40,947
- I shall talk.
- You say nothing.
- 368
- 00:31:40,949 --> 00:31:42,951
- - What, not even to...
- - Silence.
- 369
- 00:31:49,958 --> 00:31:52,061
- The fourth Earl of Lennox.
- 370
- 00:31:54,530 --> 00:31:57,900
- His son, Henry, Lord Darnley.
- 371
- 00:32:07,677 --> 00:32:10,445
- Forgive me.
- 372
- 00:32:10,447 --> 00:32:13,016
- I do not know
- my queen's visage.
- 373
- 00:32:22,593 --> 00:32:24,929
- Let me, Father.
- 374
- 00:32:40,546 --> 00:32:42,481
- I give you verse.
- 375
- 00:32:48,087 --> 00:32:50,488
- Unsheathing my quick wit
- 376
- 00:32:50,490 --> 00:32:53,391
- to see who among you
- it quickens.
- 377
- 00:32:53,393 --> 00:32:55,260
- Hmm.
- 378
- 00:32:56,496 --> 00:32:58,162
- But...
- 379
- 00:32:58,164 --> 00:33:01,332
- should I fail
- to choose correctly,
- 380
- 00:33:01,334 --> 00:33:04,338
- 'tis my soul
- that shall be sickened.
- 381
- 00:33:08,442 --> 00:33:10,776
- For shame.
- 382
- 00:33:10,778 --> 00:33:14,246
- Returning to our native land,
- 383
- 00:33:14,248 --> 00:33:17,985
- only to be deprived
- of kissing...
- 384
- 00:33:19,620 --> 00:33:21,654
- ...my queen's...
- 385
- 00:33:21,656 --> 00:33:22,791
- perfect...
- 386
- 00:33:27,362 --> 00:33:29,197
- ...hand.
- 387
- 00:33:46,449 --> 00:33:48,617
- <i>Elizabeth was kind enough</i>
- 388
- 00:33:48,619 --> 00:33:50,351
- <i>to grant us passage, so...</i>
- 389
- 00:33:50,353 --> 00:33:52,354
- <i>here we're free to worship
- as we choose.</i>
- 390
- 00:33:52,356 --> 00:33:54,389
- <i>I doubt it's faith
- that brings you.</i>
- 391
- 00:33:54,391 --> 00:33:56,691
- <i>Rather the lands
- your father seeks,</i>
- 392
- 00:33:56,693 --> 00:33:58,426
- <i>or even the throne.</i>
- 393
- 00:33:58,428 --> 00:34:01,363
- The throne?
- 394
- 00:34:01,365 --> 00:34:03,431
- Why leave Elizabeth's court
- 395
- 00:34:03,433 --> 00:34:05,501
- if not to regain
- your influence here?
- 396
- 00:34:05,503 --> 00:34:08,404
- And by laying suit to me,
- does not the House of Lennox
- 397
- 00:34:08,406 --> 00:34:10,675
- lay suit to all of Scotland?
- 398
- 00:34:14,145 --> 00:34:16,747
- I amuse you?
- 399
- 00:34:16,749 --> 00:34:19,148
- Yes.
- 400
- 00:34:19,150 --> 00:34:22,318
- Madam, you must
- not be Elizabeth.
- 401
- 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:23,553
- How so?
- 402
- 00:34:23,555 --> 00:34:25,389
- Well, the woman lives
- in fright.
- 403
- 00:34:25,391 --> 00:34:27,423
- She's always
- suspecting intrigue,
- 404
- 00:34:27,425 --> 00:34:31,261
- - always fearing revolt.
- - Her fears are wise.
- 405
- 00:34:31,263 --> 00:34:34,366
- We both have nobles
- who would have us deposed.
- 406
- 00:34:38,872 --> 00:34:41,174
- Have I vexed you?
- 407
- 00:35:11,505 --> 00:35:15,176
- You dare touch a sovereign
- without her permission?
- 408
- 00:35:22,284 --> 00:35:26,186
- I can speak for neither
- my father nor Elizabeth,
- 409
- 00:35:26,188 --> 00:35:28,489
- only for myself.
- 410
- 00:35:28,491 --> 00:35:30,291
- And...
- 411
- 00:35:30,293 --> 00:35:32,661
- speaking for myself...
- 412
- 00:35:32,663 --> 00:35:35,229
- you have a loyal subject
- in your Henry
- 413
- 00:35:35,231 --> 00:35:37,365
- who would rather worship
- at your feet
- 414
- 00:35:37,367 --> 00:35:39,636
- than at a Catholic Mass.
- 415
- 00:35:53,918 --> 00:35:57,589
- I shall just keep walking
- with you until you object.
- 416
- 00:36:39,866 --> 00:36:41,400
- You remain?
- 417
- 00:36:41,402 --> 00:36:44,505
- The queen scarcely knows
- Your Grace.
- 418
- 00:36:49,477 --> 00:36:51,977
- But... I shall play
- 419
- 00:36:51,979 --> 00:36:54,248
- and hear nothing.
- 420
- 00:37:33,058 --> 00:37:34,957
- We cannot.
- 421
- 00:37:34,959 --> 00:37:36,325
- We won't.
- 422
- 00:37:36,327 --> 00:37:38,327
- This is not that.
- 423
- 00:37:38,329 --> 00:37:40,332
- I promise.
- 424
- 00:37:42,033 --> 00:37:44,269
- Have faith in me.
- 425
- 00:38:39,861 --> 00:38:42,363
- Do you need to...?
- 426
- 00:38:43,098 --> 00:38:44,898
- No.
- 427
- 00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:47,335
- No, don't worry about me.
- 428
- 00:39:06,156 --> 00:39:11,092
- Without a treaty signed, this
- union strengthens her claim.
- 429
- 00:39:11,094 --> 00:39:13,896
- You need not to condescend.
- We are well informed!
- 430
- 00:39:13,898 --> 00:39:17,435
- Forgive us. We merely seek
- to protect your crown.
- 431
- 00:39:18,135 --> 00:39:20,070
- You cannot wed him, madam.
- 432
- 00:39:20,072 --> 00:39:22,037
- I do not wed him blindly.
- 433
- 00:39:22,039 --> 00:39:23,806
- He has promised no ambition.
- 434
- 00:39:23,808 --> 00:39:25,976
- He understands
- he will only be your consort,
- 435
- 00:39:25,978 --> 00:39:30,446
- a husband to a queen,
- not a king in his own right?
- 436
- 00:39:30,448 --> 00:39:32,582
- - He does.
- - I find it difficult to believe
- 437
- 00:39:32,584 --> 00:39:35,151
- that any man
- would settle for as much.
- 438
- 00:39:35,153 --> 00:39:37,121
- Two Catholics wed?
- 439
- 00:39:37,123 --> 00:39:38,655
- Two Stuarts, madam?
- 440
- 00:39:38,657 --> 00:39:42,193
- He has a claim of his own,
- even without betrothal.
- 441
- 00:39:42,195 --> 00:39:43,994
- Together, they make a union
- 442
- 00:39:43,996 --> 00:39:46,197
- - of two claims.
- - She has chosen an Englishman,
- 443
- 00:39:46,199 --> 00:39:48,066
- as I asked.
- 444
- 00:39:48,068 --> 00:39:50,534
- What recourse do I have?
- 445
- 00:39:50,536 --> 00:39:53,640
- Implore her
- to marry Lord Dudley.
- 446
- 00:40:00,147 --> 00:40:04,549
- I will not offer my lord if it
- means naming her successor.
- 447
- 00:40:04,551 --> 00:40:06,685
- She will not accept him
- otherwise.
- 448
- 00:40:06,687 --> 00:40:08,087
- Then let her refuse him.
- 449
- 00:40:08,089 --> 00:40:10,022
- On succession, I agree.
- 450
- 00:40:10,024 --> 00:40:11,790
- But Darnley imperils us more.
- 451
- 00:40:11,792 --> 00:40:13,659
- <i>Dudley is her puppet.</i>
- 452
- 00:40:13,661 --> 00:40:15,661
- He offers no advantage.
- 453
- 00:40:15,663 --> 00:40:18,164
- Unless she promises
- to make you heir.
- 454
- 00:40:18,166 --> 00:40:19,631
- Where is this promise?
- 455
- 00:40:19,633 --> 00:40:21,768
- He would provoke revolt
- amongst our nobles.
- 456
- 00:40:21,770 --> 00:40:23,770
- Do you command
- so little respect
- 457
- 00:40:23,772 --> 00:40:25,505
- you could not discourage them?
- 458
- 00:40:25,507 --> 00:40:26,839
- <i>We must not delay.</i>
- 459
- 00:40:26,841 --> 00:40:29,845
- You must forbid this marriage.
- 460
- 00:40:35,251 --> 00:40:38,018
- - Is that the top?
- - Aye.
- 461
- 00:40:38,020 --> 00:40:40,854
- And no subject
- should ride before his queen.
- 462
- 00:40:40,856 --> 00:40:42,725
- Would he?
- 463
- 00:41:16,261 --> 00:41:18,962
- How it must feel,
- 464
- 00:41:18,964 --> 00:41:20,897
- ruling all that you see.
- 465
- 00:41:20,899 --> 00:41:24,304
- - I am but its servant.
- - Ah.
- 466
- 00:41:26,638 --> 00:41:29,775
- Are you prepared to be
- its servant?
- 467
- 00:41:33,046 --> 00:41:35,914
- It is right for the man
- to ask, eh?
- 468
- 00:41:37,017 --> 00:41:39,183
- Then ask.
- 469
- 00:41:39,185 --> 00:41:40,852
- Uh...
- 470
- 00:41:40,854 --> 00:41:44,622
- before God,
- before all of Scotland,
- 471
- 00:41:44,624 --> 00:41:47,191
- - before all the world...
- - Yes?
- 472
- 00:41:47,193 --> 00:41:49,294
- ...you'll be my queen?
- 473
- 00:41:49,296 --> 00:41:50,628
- Yes.
- 474
- 00:41:50,630 --> 00:41:52,265
- And I your king?
- 475
- 00:41:52,267 --> 00:41:54,534
- Yes.
- 476
- 00:41:55,302 --> 00:41:56,937
- And your master?
- 477
- 00:41:58,005 --> 00:42:00,641
- My husband.
- 478
- 00:42:19,395 --> 00:42:22,662
- <i>England does not
- consider Lord Darnley</i>
- 479
- 00:42:22,664 --> 00:42:23,830
- <i>a suitable husband.</i>
- 480
- 00:42:23,832 --> 00:42:25,232
- <i>He and his father</i>
- 481
- 00:42:25,234 --> 00:42:27,835
- are English subjects, madam.
- 482
- 00:42:27,837 --> 00:42:31,038
- If my queen orders
- their return, they must.
- 483
- 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,108
- She asked that I marry
- an English nobleman,
- 484
- 00:42:33,110 --> 00:42:34,309
- and now she deprives me.
- 485
- 00:42:34,311 --> 00:42:37,879
- Her wish is that you not marry
- this particular nobleman.
- 486
- 00:42:37,881 --> 00:42:39,713
- You may tell your mistress
- I shall do so,
- 487
- 00:42:39,715 --> 00:42:40,715
- with or without her blessing.
- 488
- 00:42:40,717 --> 00:42:43,185
- Madam...
- 489
- 00:42:43,187 --> 00:42:45,388
- before you act rashly,
- please consider...
- 490
- 00:42:45,390 --> 00:42:49,025
- It is enough my own lords treat
- me as though I'm but a girl.
- 491
- 00:42:49,027 --> 00:42:52,195
- I will not be treated
- as such by Elizabeth.
- 492
- 00:42:52,197 --> 00:42:54,831
- I will be the woman she is not.
- 493
- 00:42:54,833 --> 00:42:58,036
- I shall produce an heir,
- unlike her barren self.
- 494
- 00:43:06,278 --> 00:43:08,848
- Prepare the ambassador's horse.
- 495
- 00:43:19,992 --> 00:43:23,727
- Reckless child!
- I have worked too long
- 496
- 00:43:23,729 --> 00:43:27,265
- and too hard,
- with too much bloodshed,
- 497
- 00:43:27,267 --> 00:43:30,135
- to secure peace in our land!
- 498
- 00:43:30,137 --> 00:43:33,405
- Do not let your
- cursed passion rule you!
- 499
- 00:43:33,407 --> 00:43:35,807
- 'Tis your voice raised, sir.
- 500
- 00:43:35,809 --> 00:43:38,179
- And you would lower it
- in my presence.
- 501
- 00:43:41,215 --> 00:43:43,048
- If my counsel
- 502
- 00:43:43,050 --> 00:43:45,352
- no longer has value,
- then I am obliged
- 503
- 00:43:45,354 --> 00:43:47,419
- to withdraw from court.
- 504
- 00:43:47,421 --> 00:43:49,790
- If you must.
- 505
- 00:44:18,922 --> 00:44:21,223
- <i>You have neither
- husband nor children,</i>
- 506
- 00:44:21,225 --> 00:44:25,928
- and you approach an age
- whereupon you cannot bear them.
- 507
- 00:44:25,930 --> 00:44:28,431
- You must confront
- the truth, madam,
- 508
- 00:44:28,433 --> 00:44:30,868
- displeasing as it may be.
- 509
- 00:44:33,305 --> 00:44:35,873
- I have confronted this truth.
- 510
- 00:44:39,411 --> 00:44:42,780
- You understand that I cannot.
- 511
- 00:44:43,481 --> 00:44:45,083
- Will not.
- 512
- 00:44:47,819 --> 00:44:49,553
- And do I understand?
- 513
- 00:44:49,555 --> 00:44:52,323
- No more than I understand God.
- 514
- 00:44:52,325 --> 00:44:55,091
- It is my choice.
- 515
- 00:44:55,093 --> 00:44:58,395
- God would have a woman
- be a wife and a mother.
- 516
- 00:44:58,397 --> 00:45:00,432
- So you defy his will?
- 517
- 00:45:00,434 --> 00:45:02,534
- No.
- 518
- 00:45:02,536 --> 00:45:04,904
- I choose to be a man.
- 519
- 00:45:06,573 --> 00:45:09,309
- And marriage is dangerous.
- 520
- 00:45:10,544 --> 00:45:13,111
- Such a man as I might marry,
- 521
- 00:45:13,113 --> 00:45:16,815
- finding himself disappointed...
- 522
- 00:45:16,817 --> 00:45:18,283
- He would conspire.
- 523
- 00:45:18,285 --> 00:45:21,320
- No prince's revenues
- be so great
- 524
- 00:45:21,322 --> 00:45:25,024
- that they satisfy
- the insatiable ambition of men.
- 525
- 00:45:25,026 --> 00:45:27,159
- - This I understand.
- - Which is why
- 526
- 00:45:27,161 --> 00:45:29,428
- you are the closest thing
- I shall ever have
- 527
- 00:45:29,430 --> 00:45:31,497
- to a wife.
- 528
- 00:45:31,499 --> 00:45:34,969
- I shan't mention your proposal to Lord Dudley.
- 529
- 00:45:38,140 --> 00:45:40,608
- This world is a brutal place.
- 530
- 00:45:40,610 --> 00:45:44,813
- We men must be wiser,
- mustn't we?
- 531
- 00:45:51,387 --> 00:45:53,323
- Tell me what to do.
- 532
- 00:45:54,624 --> 00:45:57,191
- We must make civil war
- in Scotland.
- 533
- 00:45:57,193 --> 00:45:59,327
- You would have me depose
- a sister monarch?
- 534
- 00:45:59,329 --> 00:46:02,932
- It is either civil war there
- or civil war here.
- 535
- 00:46:05,935 --> 00:46:08,805
- I want to know nothing of it.
- 536
- 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,244
- The arrangements
- shall be mine alone.
- 537
- 00:46:36,569 --> 00:46:39,302
- By the pleasure
- and will of God,
- 538
- 00:46:39,304 --> 00:46:42,206
- we proclaim complete
- the bond of marriage
- 539
- 00:46:42,208 --> 00:46:46,377
- between our sovereign,
- Mary Queen of Scotland,
- 540
- 00:46:46,379 --> 00:46:50,617
- and the noble Prince Henry,
- Lord Darnley.
- 541
- 00:47:48,713 --> 00:47:52,047
- <i>The authority of women,</i>
- 542
- 00:47:52,049 --> 00:47:53,516
- <i>which I call not true authority</i>
- 543
- 00:47:53,518 --> 00:47:55,984
- but carnal bondage,
- 544
- 00:47:55,986 --> 00:47:58,621
- bringeth forth monsters.
- 545
- 00:47:58,623 --> 00:48:00,489
- By their crimes,
- 546
- 00:48:00,491 --> 00:48:03,225
- realms and nations
- which used to live free
- 547
- 00:48:03,227 --> 00:48:08,165
- are brought into bondage
- against the will of God!
- 548
- 00:48:08,167 --> 00:48:12,302
- Their cankered consciences
- must be called to account.
- 549
- 00:48:12,304 --> 00:48:16,306
- <i>We must take up arms
- with our defender Lord Moray.</i>
- 550
- 00:48:16,308 --> 00:48:19,678
- <i>We must make civil war
- with this false queen!</i>
- 551
- 00:48:21,346 --> 00:48:24,215
- <i>We must make plain war against</i>
- 552
- 00:48:24,217 --> 00:48:28,588
- all false professors
- of Christ's holy gospel!
- 553
- 00:48:57,051 --> 00:48:59,453
- Oh.
- 554
- 00:49:02,791 --> 00:49:04,123
- Oh.
- 555
- 00:49:04,125 --> 00:49:06,595
- Ah. Ah. Ah. Oh, no.
- 556
- 00:49:07,729 --> 00:49:10,065
- What will you do now?
- 557
- 00:49:12,401 --> 00:49:14,335
- Bravo, Rizzio!
- 558
- 00:49:14,337 --> 00:49:16,670
- Where do I sit?
- Where do I sit?
- 559
- 00:49:16,672 --> 00:49:19,475
- Where do... Ah.
- 560
- 00:49:41,799 --> 00:49:43,164
- Rise and prepare yourself.
- 561
- 00:49:43,166 --> 00:49:45,169
- Elizabeth has funded
- a rebellion.
- 562
- 00:49:50,575 --> 00:49:52,444
- He is in your care.
- 563
- 00:50:00,486 --> 00:50:03,054
- Dress yourself.
- 564
- 00:50:09,596 --> 00:50:11,196
- - Please! Please!
- - Go!
- 565
- 00:50:13,265 --> 00:50:14,366
- No! No!
- 566
- 00:50:19,506 --> 00:50:20,739
- A word.
- 567
- 00:50:20,741 --> 00:50:22,576
- Let him approach.
- 568
- 00:50:34,922 --> 00:50:38,223
- That I betrayed you this way,
- 569
- 00:50:38,225 --> 00:50:41,195
- I have no excuse.
- 570
- 00:50:43,230 --> 00:50:45,865
- And I beg...
- 571
- 00:50:45,867 --> 00:50:48,303
- - I beg that...
- - Stand.
- 572
- 00:50:58,513 --> 00:51:01,517
- You have not betrayed
- your nature.
- 573
- 00:51:03,786 --> 00:51:05,453
- I cannot fault you
- 574
- 00:51:05,455 --> 00:51:08,559
- for succumbing
- to his charms as I did.
- 575
- 00:51:10,426 --> 00:51:13,229
- But we must be
- more careful now.
- 576
- 00:51:38,690 --> 00:51:42,425
- Moray is marching southwest,
- towards Dumfries.
- 577
- 00:51:42,427 --> 00:51:43,693
- The English can easily
- supply them there.
- 578
- 00:51:43,695 --> 00:51:45,529
- If we make good time,
- we'll cut them off
- 579
- 00:51:45,531 --> 00:51:47,296
- before they reach the gates.
- 580
- 00:51:47,298 --> 00:51:48,899
- Why give chase?
- Let them come to us.
- 581
- 00:51:48,901 --> 00:51:50,968
- What would you have us do?
- 582
- 00:51:50,970 --> 00:51:52,771
- If we lose sight,
- they can flank us.
- 583
- 00:51:52,773 --> 00:51:54,304
- I want to flank them first.
- 584
- 00:51:54,306 --> 00:51:56,741
- There's a bridge they
- must use to cross Annan.
- 585
- 00:51:56,743 --> 00:51:58,742
- We can ambush them there.
- 586
- 00:51:58,744 --> 00:52:00,714
- Give the order.
- 587
- 00:52:04,918 --> 00:52:06,317
- Mary.
- 588
- 00:52:06,319 --> 00:52:08,253
- I was speaking to you.
- 589
- 00:52:08,255 --> 00:52:10,755
- Yes, I heard.
- 590
- 00:52:10,757 --> 00:52:12,992
- Are you afraid, Henry?
- 591
- 00:52:12,994 --> 00:52:14,592
- No.
- 592
- 00:52:14,594 --> 00:52:18,465
- Good. Because our swords
- are not just for show.
- 593
- 00:52:32,648 --> 00:52:34,047
- Whence come you?
- 594
- 00:52:34,049 --> 00:52:35,715
- The Highlands, madam.
- 595
- 00:52:35,717 --> 00:52:38,351
- These two are from Inverness,
- and I'm from Thurso.
- 596
- 00:52:38,353 --> 00:52:40,620
- Catholic?
- 597
- 00:52:40,622 --> 00:52:43,390
- - No, madam.
- - And you?
- 598
- 00:52:43,392 --> 00:52:46,626
- He doesn't know Scots,
- madam, only Gaelic.
- 599
- 00:52:46,628 --> 00:52:49,799
- Tell him I'm grateful
- for his service.
- 600
- 00:52:55,337 --> 00:52:57,672
- He says he's proud
- to serve his queen,
- 601
- 00:52:57,674 --> 00:53:00,075
- and to give his life
- if he must.
- 602
- 00:53:00,077 --> 00:53:02,610
- Tell him, if any of us
- should die today,
- 603
- 00:53:02,612 --> 00:53:05,282
- we all go to the same Heaven.
- 604
- 00:53:26,972 --> 00:53:29,876
- Walk like men, not boys!
- 605
- 00:53:31,543 --> 00:53:33,409
- March on! Good trail there!
- 606
- 00:53:33,411 --> 00:53:36,081
- With your feet like that,
- march on!
- 607
- 00:53:36,083 --> 00:53:37,782
- No, you're too slow.
- 608
- 00:53:37,784 --> 00:53:39,584
- This is too slow!
- 609
- 00:53:54,802 --> 00:53:56,670
- Halt!
- 610
- 00:54:08,449 --> 00:54:11,385
- Hyah! Hyah!
- 611
- 00:54:18,027 --> 00:54:20,329
- Stand aside to let my men pass.
- 612
- 00:54:30,406 --> 00:54:32,774
- I charge thee, give way.
- 613
- 00:54:32,776 --> 00:54:34,877
- Drive them back.
- 614
- 00:54:51,995 --> 00:54:55,765
- Form up! Form up!
- 615
- 00:55:12,218 --> 00:55:14,551
- Man the guns!
- 616
- 00:55:14,553 --> 00:55:17,090
- Man the guns! Stand and fight!
- 617
- 00:56:19,555 --> 00:56:20,924
- Hyah! Hyah!
- 618
- 00:57:23,790 --> 00:57:26,793
- - You summoned?
- - How much have you had?
- 619
- 00:57:30,331 --> 00:57:33,101
- I'm celebrating
- our victory, my love.
- 620
- 00:57:43,744 --> 00:57:45,981
- What are you doing?
- 621
- 00:57:52,255 --> 00:57:53,956
- Mary...
- 622
- 00:57:55,957 --> 00:57:58,895
- - Close your eyes.
- - I...
- 623
- 00:58:09,705 --> 00:58:12,308
- You're almost there.
- 624
- 00:58:12,310 --> 00:58:14,342
- No, I can't.
- 625
- 00:58:14,344 --> 00:58:16,711
- I can't.
- I've had too much to drink.
- 626
- 00:58:16,713 --> 00:58:19,083
- - Mar...
- - Think of Rizzio.
- 627
- 00:58:36,335 --> 00:58:38,235
- Yes, yes.
- 628
- 00:58:38,237 --> 00:58:40,370
- That's it. That's it.
- 629
- 00:58:40,372 --> 00:58:42,740
- Yeah? That's it.
- 630
- 00:58:50,950 --> 00:58:53,220
- Huh?
- 631
- 00:59:47,943 --> 00:59:50,813
- Pray for me.
- 632
- 01:00:21,246 --> 01:00:24,150
- He'll make a fine stallion.
- 633
- 01:00:48,175 --> 01:00:50,308
- If you have wondered
- 634
- 01:00:50,310 --> 01:00:53,379
- where your queen was
- these past few months,
- 635
- 01:00:53,381 --> 01:00:55,213
- now there are no secrets.
- 636
- 01:00:55,215 --> 01:00:58,584
- The whisperings can end.
- 637
- 01:00:58,586 --> 01:01:01,256
- Spring comes bearing fruit.
- 638
- 01:01:10,064 --> 01:01:13,166
- My husband and I give thanks.
- 639
- 01:01:13,168 --> 01:01:15,335
- With Heaven's blessing,
- we bring another Stuart
- 640
- 01:01:15,337 --> 01:01:16,604
- into this world,
- 641
- 01:01:16,606 --> 01:01:18,938
- heir to Scotland
- 642
- 01:01:18,940 --> 01:01:21,243
- and to England.
- 643
- 01:01:23,312 --> 01:01:25,313
- Heir to England?
- 644
- 01:01:25,315 --> 01:01:27,147
- She speaks for herself.
- 645
- 01:01:27,149 --> 01:01:29,250
- Do her councillors fail
- to advise her?
- 646
- 01:01:29,252 --> 01:01:31,419
- Oh, we advise her
- endlessly, sir.
- 647
- 01:01:31,421 --> 01:01:33,321
- Not that she heeds it.
- 648
- 01:01:33,323 --> 01:01:35,189
- You must do better.
- 649
- 01:01:35,191 --> 01:01:37,327
- Well, better than
- your own queen's counsel?
- 650
- 01:01:41,998 --> 01:01:44,133
- How did the world come to this?
- 651
- 01:01:44,135 --> 01:01:46,502
- Wise men servicing
- the whims of women?
- 652
- 01:01:46,504 --> 01:01:48,839
- Aye.
- 653
- 01:01:57,915 --> 01:02:02,054
- And that man's power dies with
- the birth of his grandchild.
- 654
- 01:02:04,990 --> 01:02:06,356
- It is a clear provocation.
- 655
- 01:02:06,358 --> 01:02:08,225
- She knew well
- Lord Randolph would report.
- 656
- 01:02:08,227 --> 01:02:10,226
- And what would you have us do?
- 657
- 01:02:10,228 --> 01:02:12,396
- Go to war
- over some reckless words?
- 658
- 01:02:12,398 --> 01:02:14,230
- Not us. Her brother.
- 659
- 01:02:14,232 --> 01:02:16,567
- He hopes to raise
- a second army.
- 660
- 01:02:16,569 --> 01:02:20,406
- - If we were to assist him...
- - As we did his first?
- 661
- 01:02:21,641 --> 01:02:23,907
- I shall not fail you twice.
- 662
- 01:02:23,909 --> 01:02:26,611
- Madam, we cannot let her name
- your successor.
- 663
- 01:02:26,613 --> 01:02:28,347
- She has no right.
- 664
- 01:02:28,349 --> 01:02:31,382
- When I am dead and you are dead
- and she is dead,
- 665
- 01:02:31,384 --> 01:02:36,221
- it matters not what names
- we did or did not say.
- 666
- 01:02:36,223 --> 01:02:38,990
- The world will decide
- for itself.
- 667
- 01:02:38,992 --> 01:02:41,363
- Now is not the time to soften.
- 668
- 01:02:45,999 --> 01:02:48,236
- It's a fine day, isn't it?
- 669
- 01:02:54,109 --> 01:02:56,245
- I shall see you inside.
- 670
- 01:04:04,684 --> 01:04:06,519
- James.
- 671
- 01:04:08,722 --> 01:04:10,621
- Oh. Look.
- 672
- 01:04:10,623 --> 01:04:12,326
- He likes it, too.
- 673
- 01:04:37,486 --> 01:04:38,818
- So...
- 674
- 01:04:38,820 --> 01:04:41,556
- Mary's power grows
- with her pregnancy.
- 675
- 01:04:42,791 --> 01:04:45,394
- Your letter said
- you had a proposal.
- 676
- 01:04:47,562 --> 01:04:51,665
- Once Mary bears a child...
- 677
- 01:04:51,667 --> 01:04:54,802
- Darnley will never be king.
- 678
- 01:04:54,804 --> 01:04:57,338
- There is no need for your son.
- 679
- 01:04:57,340 --> 01:05:01,409
- An infant cannot
- grant you pardon.
- 680
- 01:05:01,411 --> 01:05:06,146
- It is right that you
- should return from exile.
- 681
- 01:05:06,148 --> 01:05:08,818
- And it is right
- my son should be king,
- 682
- 01:05:08,820 --> 01:05:10,819
- <i>and we can rule through him</i>
- 683
- 01:05:10,821 --> 01:05:13,323
- <i>if we weaken Mary's power.</i>
- 684
- 01:05:15,192 --> 01:05:17,259
- Mary, we must speak.
- 685
- 01:05:17,261 --> 01:05:18,794
- Can you open the door?
- 686
- 01:05:18,796 --> 01:05:20,429
- - Mary?
- - Let him in.
- 687
- 01:05:20,431 --> 01:05:23,433
- Open the door so we can speak!
- 688
- 01:05:27,739 --> 01:05:29,140
- Mary?
- 689
- 01:05:33,612 --> 01:05:34,580
- Mary, open the...
- 690
- 01:05:40,754 --> 01:05:42,753
- What are you doing here?
- 691
- 01:05:42,755 --> 01:05:44,491
- Come, Henry.
- 692
- 01:05:52,732 --> 01:05:56,401
- You would have David here
- and bar your own husband?
- 693
- 01:05:56,403 --> 01:05:59,237
- When I am anointed king,
- 694
- 01:05:59,239 --> 01:06:01,607
- you will afford me
- the respect of a wife.
- 695
- 01:06:01,609 --> 01:06:04,278
- After all,
- that is what you promised.
- 696
- 01:06:21,530 --> 01:06:24,397
- Would you have his father
- be nothing but a consort?
- 697
- 01:06:24,399 --> 01:06:25,899
- We know not if it's a he.
- 698
- 01:06:25,901 --> 01:06:28,368
- I am more than a sire
- to a mare, Mary.
- 699
- 01:06:28,370 --> 01:06:30,238
- Please, I am tired.
- 700
- 01:06:31,907 --> 01:06:34,543
- Do you love me?
- 701
- 01:06:39,247 --> 01:06:41,351
- Do you love me?
- 702
- 01:06:44,320 --> 01:06:47,290
- You've given me an heir
- to two thrones.
- 703
- 01:06:49,192 --> 01:06:52,296
- That matters more than love.
- 704
- 01:07:06,477 --> 01:07:09,412
- The queen is servant of Satan.
- 705
- 01:07:09,414 --> 01:07:11,814
- She is a fornicator
- 706
- 01:07:11,816 --> 01:07:13,650
- with a monstrous lust.
- 707
- 01:07:13,652 --> 01:07:17,453
- This pleasuring woman
- is not fit to rule us.
- 708
- 01:07:17,455 --> 01:07:20,224
- Would we kneel before a polecat
- 709
- 01:07:20,226 --> 01:07:22,826
- who has bedded an Italian?
- 710
- 01:07:22,828 --> 01:07:24,561
- David Rizzio.
- 711
- 01:07:24,563 --> 01:07:29,366
- A Catholic who never leaves
- her bed chamber!
- 712
- 01:07:29,368 --> 01:07:33,672
- How do we know her child
- is not a bastard?
- 713
- 01:07:33,674 --> 01:07:35,673
- <i>David Rizzio.</i>
- 714
- 01:07:35,675 --> 01:07:39,844
- He is an impediment
- to your rightful place as king.
- 715
- 01:07:39,846 --> 01:07:41,913
- Enough.
- 716
- 01:07:41,915 --> 01:07:44,750
- We speak of Rizzio's
- relations with your wife.
- 717
- 01:07:44,752 --> 01:07:46,317
- With Mary?
- 718
- 01:07:46,319 --> 01:07:47,852
- You're mistaken.
- 719
- 01:07:47,854 --> 01:07:50,321
- Does he not spend
- more time with the queen
- 720
- 01:07:50,323 --> 01:07:51,589
- than Your Grace?
- 721
- 01:07:51,591 --> 01:07:53,592
- Why else would she make
- a common minstrel
- 722
- 01:07:53,594 --> 01:07:55,961
- - her private secretary?
- - No, it cannot be.
- 723
- 01:07:55,963 --> 01:07:57,630
- And what matter if it be true?
- 724
- 01:07:57,632 --> 01:08:00,366
- - Because I'm not a cuckold.
- - Would you rather
- 725
- 01:08:00,368 --> 01:08:01,867
- the honest truth be told?
- 726
- 01:08:01,869 --> 01:08:03,504
- That you are a sodomite?
- 727
- 01:08:06,741 --> 01:08:08,709
- We must erase your sins.
- 728
- 01:08:08,711 --> 01:08:12,548
- And either you are
- the adulterer, or it is she.
- 729
- 01:08:19,588 --> 01:08:22,291
- The other lords have signed.
- 730
- 01:08:45,382 --> 01:08:47,785
- Aha!
- 731
- 01:08:50,788 --> 01:08:53,792
- Ah! You have been saving that.
- 732
- 01:09:13,412 --> 01:09:15,411
- You! Come with me, sir!
- 733
- 01:09:15,413 --> 01:09:18,949
- You dare charge
- into my chamber unannounced?
- 734
- 01:09:18,951 --> 01:09:20,852
- - David Rizzio!
- - David.
- 735
- 01:09:20,854 --> 01:09:22,486
- I am with child!
- 736
- 01:09:22,488 --> 01:09:24,856
- - No! No!
- - Take her.
- 737
- 01:09:24,858 --> 01:09:28,094
- All that is done
- is in Lord Darnley's name.
- 738
- 01:09:28,096 --> 01:09:30,562
- - Henry.
- - Let go! No!
- 739
- 01:09:30,564 --> 01:09:32,631
- Get off!
- 740
- 01:09:32,633 --> 01:09:35,100
- - What have you done?
- - It is done.
- 741
- 01:09:35,102 --> 01:09:36,936
- Look at me. Look at me.
- 742
- 01:09:36,938 --> 01:09:39,807
- It is done, Mary. Do not interfere.
- 743
- 01:09:41,576 --> 01:09:44,312
- No! No!
- 744
- 01:09:50,085 --> 01:09:52,121
- Adulterer!
- 745
- 01:09:54,089 --> 01:09:56,126
- No!
- 746
- 01:09:59,627 --> 01:10:02,698
- - Enough!
- - No! No!
- 747
- 01:10:06,136 --> 01:10:08,104
- Stand aside.
- 748
- 01:10:10,739 --> 01:10:11,941
- No.
- 749
- 01:10:16,746 --> 01:10:19,446
- Come on, Mary!
- 750
- 01:10:19,448 --> 01:10:21,083
- Please...
- 751
- 01:10:21,085 --> 01:10:22,184
- Don't.
- 752
- 01:10:22,186 --> 01:10:24,453
- Please, no. Please don't.
- 753
- 01:10:24,455 --> 01:10:25,723
- Please don't. Please don't.
- 754
- 01:10:27,824 --> 01:10:30,693
- - William!
- - Do not interfere.
- 755
- 01:10:30,695 --> 01:10:33,397
- No! - No!
- 756
- 01:10:36,434 --> 01:10:37,535
- No!
- 757
- 01:10:38,970 --> 01:10:40,672
- No!
- 758
- 01:11:02,061 --> 01:11:05,529
- You must make the final blow.
- 759
- 01:11:05,531 --> 01:11:07,231
- I can't.
- 760
- 01:11:07,233 --> 01:11:09,469
- Go on.
- 761
- 01:11:10,937 --> 01:11:14,672
- No. No.
- 762
- 01:11:14,674 --> 01:11:15,775
- No.
- 763
- 01:11:20,514 --> 01:11:22,950
- Adulterer!
- 764
- 01:12:48,007 --> 01:12:50,608
- He beguiled us, Mary.
- 765
- 01:12:50,610 --> 01:12:52,746
- Both of us.
- 766
- 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:56,083
- He brought us dishonor.
- 767
- 01:12:58,185 --> 01:13:00,554
- Did he not?
- 768
- 01:13:03,790 --> 01:13:06,592
- You are trying to usurp
- my crown.
- 769
- 01:13:06,594 --> 01:13:08,827
- Have I not brought you a child?
- 770
- 01:13:08,829 --> 01:13:11,866
- One minute makes not a man.
- 771
- 01:13:12,801 --> 01:13:14,933
- Beg forgiveness...
- 772
- 01:13:14,935 --> 01:13:16,736
- for your insult.
- 773
- 01:13:16,738 --> 01:13:18,637
- - Beg forgiveness now.
- - I shall not.
- 774
- 01:13:18,639 --> 01:13:20,675
- Bothwell has escaped.
- 775
- 01:13:26,081 --> 01:13:28,149
- This is your fault.
- 776
- 01:13:28,151 --> 01:13:30,084
- All of this, this chaos.
- 777
- 01:13:30,086 --> 01:13:32,086
- It's your fault.
- 778
- 01:13:32,088 --> 01:13:33,854
- You swore obedience
- to me, Mary,
- 779
- 01:13:33,856 --> 01:13:35,755
- on the day of our marriage.
- 780
- 01:13:35,757 --> 01:13:38,059
- You swore obedience to me!
- 781
- 01:13:38,061 --> 01:13:40,028
- I am king!
- 782
- 01:13:40,030 --> 01:13:41,929
- You are a traitor.
- 783
- 01:13:41,931 --> 01:13:43,631
- As are you.
- 784
- 01:13:43,633 --> 01:13:45,867
- And until I am killed,
- and forever after,
- 785
- 01:13:45,869 --> 01:13:47,902
- God will see you as such.
- 786
- 01:13:47,904 --> 01:13:50,338
- You will not be killed, madam.
- 787
- 01:13:50,340 --> 01:13:52,674
- Let us go.
- We have much business.
- 788
- 01:13:52,676 --> 01:13:55,110
- Lord Moray will arrive soon.
- 789
- 01:13:55,112 --> 01:13:56,845
- My brother conspired?
- 790
- 01:13:56,847 --> 01:14:00,652
- Your brother returns
- to assist your husband.
- 791
- 01:14:08,227 --> 01:14:10,628
- I want a drink.
- 792
- 01:14:18,870 --> 01:14:20,771
- Am I to be
- imprisoned here alone,
- 793
- 01:14:20,773 --> 01:14:23,240
- or may I have the company
- of my gentlewomen?
- 794
- 01:14:23,242 --> 01:14:25,943
- You may not, madam.
- 795
- 01:14:25,945 --> 01:14:28,215
- You are to remain
- in this chamber.
- 796
- 01:14:30,683 --> 01:14:33,852
- Then at least
- let my husband remain.
- 797
- 01:14:33,854 --> 01:14:36,723
- Or would you have
- a drunkard for a king?
- 798
- 01:15:03,751 --> 01:15:05,654
- Come, Henry.
- 799
- 01:15:08,458 --> 01:15:10,826
- I do not feel well.
- 800
- 01:15:33,918 --> 01:15:36,486
- They forced me
- into the room, Mary.
- 801
- 01:15:36,488 --> 01:15:38,688
- I swear.
- 802
- 01:15:39,889 --> 01:15:42,090
- And I didn't know that...
- 803
- 01:15:42,092 --> 01:15:44,427
- Not until they arrived.
- I promise.
- 804
- 01:15:44,429 --> 01:15:48,164
- Maitland is very persuasive.
- 805
- 01:15:48,166 --> 01:15:49,999
- Yes.
- 806
- 01:15:50,001 --> 01:15:53,002
- My brother even more so.
- 807
- 01:15:53,004 --> 01:15:53,937
- Hmm.
- 808
- 01:15:53,939 --> 01:15:57,776
- They will take your crown
- as well as mine.
- 809
- 01:16:03,982 --> 01:16:06,252
- We should leave here.
- 810
- 01:16:07,553 --> 01:16:09,987
- It's best.
- 811
- 01:16:09,989 --> 01:16:12,424
- For all three of us.
- 812
- 01:16:12,426 --> 01:16:14,093
- Yes.
- 813
- 01:16:18,398 --> 01:16:20,532
- It is important
- that the people do not accuse
- 814
- 01:16:20,534 --> 01:16:22,400
- those who participated
- as traitors.
- 815
- 01:16:22,402 --> 01:16:24,537
- They must be pardoned
- so there's no doubt
- 816
- 01:16:24,539 --> 01:16:26,271
- of their loyalty to the crown.
- 817
- 01:16:26,273 --> 01:16:30,576
- When she pardons
- all involved, you may go.
- 818
- 01:16:30,578 --> 01:16:33,346
- Am I to be told
- what I may and may not do?
- 819
- 01:16:33,348 --> 01:16:36,148
- And by who? Hmm?
- 820
- 01:16:36,150 --> 01:16:40,287
- A mere lord
- and a bastard half brother?
- 821
- 01:16:40,289 --> 01:16:43,222
- Am I not the king
- to whom you promised fealty
- 822
- 01:16:43,224 --> 01:16:45,294
- before you carried out
- your violence?
- 823
- 01:16:49,064 --> 01:16:51,030
- Let me remind you
- that this king shall go
- 824
- 01:16:51,032 --> 01:16:54,303
- where he pleases with his wife
- when it pleases him.
- 825
- 01:17:10,487 --> 01:17:12,323
- The Queen.
- 826
- 01:17:18,228 --> 01:17:20,062
- What is this?
- 827
- 01:17:20,064 --> 01:17:21,997
- The queen's army.
- 828
- 01:17:21,999 --> 01:17:24,201
- Your chambers are ready.
- 829
- 01:17:25,503 --> 01:17:28,806
- Do not make them use force.
- 830
- 01:17:38,350 --> 01:17:40,383
- <i>They have at least 500.</i>
- 831
- 01:17:40,385 --> 01:17:42,952
- More are on the way.
- 832
- 01:17:42,954 --> 01:17:44,488
- Then we shall raise
- our own army.
- 833
- 01:17:44,490 --> 01:17:46,489
- There is no appetite for war.
- 834
- 01:17:46,491 --> 01:17:49,262
- Then let us stir an appetite.
- 835
- 01:17:50,530 --> 01:17:52,496
- When last we raised an army,
- 836
- 01:17:52,498 --> 01:17:56,568
- it was but half the size
- of hers with England's help.
- 837
- 01:17:56,570 --> 01:18:00,039
- Without England,
- we will be crushed.
- 838
- 01:18:02,008 --> 01:18:04,311
- She has outmaneuvered us.
- 839
- 01:18:18,258 --> 01:18:21,060
- My husband claims
- he knew nothing of your plot
- 840
- 01:18:21,062 --> 01:18:23,297
- - until the day itself.
- - That's not true.
- 841
- 01:18:24,566 --> 01:18:27,402
- He signed a bond
- with his own hand.
- 842
- 01:18:30,138 --> 01:18:32,972
- If you wish it destroyed,
- however...
- 843
- 01:18:32,974 --> 01:18:34,976
- Not destroyed.
- 844
- 01:18:37,246 --> 01:18:39,312
- We shall sign this pardon
- 845
- 01:18:39,314 --> 01:18:42,184
- as soon as you produce
- the bond.
- 846
- 01:18:47,356 --> 01:18:49,158
- Aye, madam.
- 847
- 01:19:04,075 --> 01:19:07,442
- The flowers are all
- of one color.
- 848
- 01:19:07,444 --> 01:19:09,078
- Poppies are red.
- 849
- 01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:10,713
- I know of no other color
- that...
- 850
- 01:19:10,715 --> 01:19:14,750
- In the light, they are
- many colors... red and others.
- 851
- 01:19:14,752 --> 01:19:16,520
- Nature is more subtle.
- 852
- 01:19:16,522 --> 01:19:18,222
- The council is met.
- 853
- 01:19:19,690 --> 01:19:22,160
- There is news from Scotland.
- 854
- 01:19:24,463 --> 01:19:26,430
- What do you think?
- 855
- 01:19:26,432 --> 01:19:29,099
- Lovely.
- 856
- 01:19:29,101 --> 01:19:31,535
- The flowers not too plain?
- 857
- 01:19:31,537 --> 01:19:33,506
- The news is urgent.
- 858
- 01:19:35,474 --> 01:19:38,743
- What news do I want
- from Scotland?
- 859
- 01:19:38,745 --> 01:19:41,145
- Bloodshed?
- 860
- 01:19:41,147 --> 01:19:44,014
- Go conspire among yourselves.
- 861
- 01:19:44,016 --> 01:19:46,119
- Very well.
- 862
- 01:19:56,030 --> 01:19:58,197
- Burn it.
- 863
- 01:19:58,199 --> 01:20:00,502
- I shall begin again.
- 864
- 01:20:02,770 --> 01:20:04,972
- Burn it, I say!
- 865
- 01:20:23,091 --> 01:20:25,092
- You visited Mother and me here
- 866
- 01:20:25,094 --> 01:20:27,260
- before we left for France.
- You remember?
- 867
- 01:20:27,262 --> 01:20:29,797
- Yes.
- Those were tumultuous times.
- 868
- 01:20:29,799 --> 01:20:32,801
- It was here in this glen
- you lifted me high
- 869
- 01:20:32,803 --> 01:20:35,471
- when I said I wished
- to be a bird.
- 870
- 01:20:36,673 --> 01:20:38,372
- If you say so.
- 871
- 01:20:38,374 --> 01:20:40,208
- I understand why you
- wouldn't remember
- 872
- 01:20:40,210 --> 01:20:41,676
- a trifling thing like that.
- 873
- 01:20:41,678 --> 01:20:44,546
- Of what consequence are
- the fancies of a little girl?
- 874
- 01:20:44,548 --> 01:20:48,017
- Not all little girls
- are born to be queens.
- 875
- 01:20:54,759 --> 01:20:59,160
- I should like you
- to hold my child up one day.
- 876
- 01:20:59,162 --> 01:21:02,066
- Make him fly as you made me.
- 877
- 01:21:06,337 --> 01:21:09,171
- He will be born a prince,
- 878
- 01:21:09,173 --> 01:21:11,476
- and one day, king.
- 879
- 01:21:12,411 --> 01:21:14,478
- I want him to love his uncle
- 880
- 01:21:14,480 --> 01:21:16,580
- and to be born
- into a peaceful land.
- 881
- 01:21:16,582 --> 01:21:18,882
- - I wish the same.
- - Then will you love your sister
- 882
- 01:21:18,884 --> 01:21:20,453
- as you would love her child?
- 883
- 01:21:21,821 --> 01:21:24,656
- For she still loves you.
- 884
- 01:21:24,658 --> 01:21:27,825
- And if it is a son,
- she will call him James,
- 885
- 01:21:27,827 --> 01:21:30,530
- for both his grandfather
- and his uncle.
- 886
- 01:21:33,233 --> 01:21:35,667
- I do not deserve your kind...
- 887
- 01:21:35,669 --> 01:21:38,204
- - James.
- - ...your kindness.
- 888
- 01:22:02,898 --> 01:22:06,433
- <i>My dearest cousin Elizabeth,</i>
- 889
- 01:22:06,435 --> 01:22:07,534
- <i>we have had our differences,</i>
- 890
- 01:22:07,536 --> 01:22:10,537
- <i>and what sorrow
- it has brought my heart.</i>
- 891
- 01:22:10,539 --> 01:22:13,641
- <i>But before I bring a child
- into this world,</i>
- 892
- 01:22:13,643 --> 01:22:15,375
- <i>I wish to reconcile.</i>
- 893
- 01:22:15,377 --> 01:22:19,179
- <i>I would our child
- have two mothers.</i>
- 894
- 01:22:19,181 --> 01:22:21,484
- "A mother who bears him...
- 895
- 01:22:22,552 --> 01:22:25,319
- "...and you,
- his chosen godmother.
- 896
- 01:22:25,321 --> 01:22:28,292
- No child would be
- more blessed."
- 897
- 01:23:22,849 --> 01:23:26,317
- <i>I am told the labor was long.</i>
- 898
- 01:23:26,319 --> 01:23:29,524
- <i>But only with suffering
- do we know joy.</i>
- 899
- 01:23:30,892 --> 01:23:35,995
- <i>What greater joy than to have
- a son to call your own.</i>
- 900
- 01:23:35,997 --> 01:23:40,801
- <i>Humbly do I accept your
- invitation to be his godmother,</i>
- 901
- 01:23:40,803 --> 01:23:43,805
- <i>as I might share
- in your happiness.</i>
- 902
- 01:23:45,708 --> 01:23:48,742
- <i>What is more, we should return
- to the issue of inheritance,</i>
- 903
- 01:23:48,744 --> 01:23:52,012
- <i>now that a new generation
- is upon us.</i>
- 904
- 01:23:52,014 --> 01:23:54,748
- <i>Your terms are most agreeable.</i>
- 905
- 01:23:54,750 --> 01:23:59,053
- <i>It is only right that your heir
- succeed you if you marry</i>
- 906
- 01:23:59,055 --> 01:24:01,624
- <i>and bear children of your own.</i>
- 907
- 01:24:06,830 --> 01:24:10,498
- <i>And should you not,
- it is my son's great honor</i>
- 908
- 01:24:10,500 --> 01:24:12,703
- <i>to rule
- by your sublime example.</i>
- 909
- 01:24:26,017 --> 01:24:27,649
- If you grant her succession,
- 910
- 01:24:27,651 --> 01:24:29,452
- we are rewarding
- her disobedience.
- 911
- 01:24:29,454 --> 01:24:31,054
- What disobedience?
- 912
- 01:24:31,056 --> 01:24:33,656
- She is not our subject.
- 913
- 01:24:33,658 --> 01:24:36,595
- And yet you would make us hers.
- 914
- 01:24:38,930 --> 01:24:40,664
- What have you produced
- 915
- 01:24:40,666 --> 01:24:43,933
- in all your travels
- between our kingdoms?
- 916
- 01:24:43,935 --> 01:24:45,536
- Discord?
- 917
- 01:24:45,538 --> 01:24:46,636
- War?
- 918
- 01:24:46,638 --> 01:24:47,771
- Death?
- 919
- 01:24:47,773 --> 01:24:51,541
- And now you have the boldness
- to doubt my judgment?
- 920
- 01:24:51,543 --> 01:24:54,612
- You had better question yours.
- 921
- 01:24:54,614 --> 01:24:57,716
- I regret that you
- perceive me as a failure.
- 922
- 01:24:57,718 --> 01:25:00,552
- We serve you fully,
- 923
- 01:25:00,554 --> 01:25:02,854
- with all our hearts.
- 924
- 01:25:02,856 --> 01:25:05,023
- Any one of us
- would gladly die for you,
- 925
- 01:25:05,025 --> 01:25:08,060
- but Mary is our foe
- and a Catholic.
- 926
- 01:25:08,062 --> 01:25:11,463
- She is only your queen if
- I should not produce an heir.
- 927
- 01:25:11,465 --> 01:25:13,532
- And will you, madam?
- 928
- 01:25:13,534 --> 01:25:17,703
- For you have given us
- little hope so far.
- 929
- 01:25:17,705 --> 01:25:21,808
- Despite your every effort,
- she has prevailed.
- 930
- 01:25:21,810 --> 01:25:22,942
- She has proven herself,
- 931
- 01:25:22,944 --> 01:25:26,913
- in fact, far more capable
- than my own privy council!
- 932
- 01:25:26,915 --> 01:25:28,882
- Should I die before my time,
- 933
- 01:25:28,884 --> 01:25:32,721
- we could do worse than to place
- her on the throne of England.
- 934
- 01:25:36,126 --> 01:25:38,861
- Is this not your name?
- 935
- 01:25:41,597 --> 01:25:43,997
- - It's forged.
- - Henry...
- 936
- 01:25:43,999 --> 01:25:47,137
- - I swear, this is an outrage.
- - It's your hand.
- 937
- 01:25:49,472 --> 01:25:51,875
- You must believe me.
- 938
- 01:25:57,915 --> 01:26:00,618
- Am I not to see my own son?
- 939
- 01:26:02,019 --> 01:26:04,087
- I'm not to see him?
- 940
- 01:26:04,089 --> 01:26:06,488
- He's not to know his father?
- 941
- 01:26:06,490 --> 01:26:07,857
- For your child's sake,
- 942
- 01:26:07,859 --> 01:26:10,862
- be contented
- with a pardon and your life.
- 943
- 01:26:12,164 --> 01:26:14,597
- We have procured
- a house for you.
- 944
- 01:26:14,599 --> 01:26:16,633
- We are to live apart.
- 945
- 01:26:16,635 --> 01:26:18,770
- Bothwell will see you there.
- 946
- 01:27:01,082 --> 01:27:03,918
- You're moving.
- 947
- 01:27:09,258 --> 01:27:11,558
- Oh.
- 948
- 01:27:13,095 --> 01:27:15,261
- - You must divorce him, madam.
- - It is forbidden.
- 949
- 01:27:15,263 --> 01:27:16,764
- Not in the Church of Scotland.
- 950
- 01:27:16,766 --> 01:27:18,765
- He is the father of my child.
- 951
- 01:27:18,767 --> 01:27:20,801
- I will not do him
- such an indignity.
- 952
- 01:27:20,803 --> 01:27:22,770
- - Darnley is cursed.
- - He is harmless.
- 953
- 01:27:22,772 --> 01:27:24,105
- Not so.
- 954
- 01:27:24,107 --> 01:27:25,940
- He's still plotting
- to take your crown.
- 955
- 01:27:25,942 --> 01:27:29,645
- My men heard him.
- He spoke of regicide.
- 956
- 01:27:31,614 --> 01:27:34,149
- You have commanded armies
- against armies.
- 957
- 01:27:34,151 --> 01:27:36,084
- Now you fear a single man?
- 958
- 01:27:36,086 --> 01:27:39,653
- - I did not claim to fear him.
- - Then why advocate divorce?
- 959
- 01:27:39,655 --> 01:27:41,990
- My oath is to defend
- your safety.
- 960
- 01:27:41,992 --> 01:27:43,560
- So you do fear him.
- 961
- 01:27:50,534 --> 01:27:52,135
- Just as you vowed
- to protect me,
- 962
- 01:27:52,137 --> 01:27:53,769
- I vowed loyalty to my husband.
- 963
- 01:27:53,771 --> 01:27:57,540
- Any man who marries me
- will try to make himself king.
- 964
- 01:27:57,542 --> 01:27:59,608
- I owe him
- neither comfort nor title,
- 965
- 01:27:59,610 --> 01:28:01,744
- but I will not become
- a lady Henry VIII,
- 966
- 01:28:01,746 --> 01:28:04,616
- dispensing with husbands
- as he did wives.
- 967
- 01:28:15,094 --> 01:28:18,162
- Ow. Damn.
- 968
- 01:28:18,164 --> 01:28:19,832
- Ow.
- 969
- 01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:22,766
- <i>My lord,</i>
- 970
- 01:28:22,768 --> 01:28:25,870
- you argued well in council.
- 971
- 01:28:25,872 --> 01:28:28,706
- May we borrow your wisdom
- for a moment?
- 972
- 01:28:28,708 --> 01:28:32,680
- The queen should not cast aside
- your protection.
- 973
- 01:29:47,926 --> 01:29:50,028
- Mommy!
- 974
- 01:29:51,663 --> 01:29:53,663
- It's Lord Darnley.
- 975
- 01:29:53,665 --> 01:29:55,867
- Attempt on his life.
- 976
- 01:29:57,036 --> 01:29:59,804
- Is he dead?
- 977
- 01:30:12,986 --> 01:30:15,286
- I'll take you to my estate.
- 978
- 01:30:15,288 --> 01:30:17,789
- It's not safe for you here.
- 979
- 01:30:17,791 --> 01:30:19,824
- James should stay
- with one of your ladies
- 980
- 01:30:19,826 --> 01:30:22,163
- for his safety.
- 981
- 01:30:36,778 --> 01:30:40,046
- It's okay.
- 982
- 01:30:40,048 --> 01:30:42,748
- As soon as the women
- are loaded, get us moved.
- 983
- 01:30:42,750 --> 01:30:46,153
- Come on!
- 984
- 01:30:46,155 --> 01:30:48,389
- - It's okay.
- - Madam.
- 985
- 01:30:48,391 --> 01:30:50,790
- Madam, we have to go.
- 986
- 01:30:50,792 --> 01:30:53,429
- Mama! Mama!
- 987
- 01:30:57,033 --> 01:31:00,137
- Mama! Mama!
- 988
- 01:31:03,206 --> 01:31:06,107
- Mama! Mama!
- 989
- 01:31:06,109 --> 01:31:07,210
- Mama!
- 990
- 01:31:08,312 --> 01:31:09,812
- Mama!
- 991
- 01:31:10,813 --> 01:31:13,684
- Mama! Mama...
- 992
- 01:31:49,556 --> 01:31:51,023
- Pardon.
- 993
- 01:31:52,125 --> 01:31:53,893
- No need.
- 994
- 01:31:55,828 --> 01:31:58,332
- May we speak in private?
- 995
- 01:32:20,589 --> 01:32:22,890
- What brings you?
- 996
- 01:32:24,994 --> 01:32:27,159
- Parliament will ratify
- a proclamation
- 997
- 01:32:27,161 --> 01:32:29,830
- demanding you wed
- a Scottish subject,
- 998
- 01:32:29,832 --> 01:32:31,365
- now that you're widowed.
- 999
- 01:32:31,367 --> 01:32:33,302
- It has only been a day.
- 1000
- 01:32:34,403 --> 01:32:36,237
- They meet tomorrow.
- 1001
- 01:32:36,239 --> 01:32:39,241
- It's your council's advice
- that you should marry me.
- 1002
- 01:32:51,288 --> 01:32:53,324
- What have you done?
- 1003
- 01:33:02,466 --> 01:33:04,336
- Murderer.
- 1004
- 01:33:07,271 --> 01:33:09,872
- Did I not come to your aid
- when your lords rebelled?
- 1005
- 01:33:09,874 --> 01:33:11,440
- Did I not? I was loyal!
- 1006
- 01:33:11,442 --> 01:33:13,011
- Me!
- 1007
- 01:33:15,880 --> 01:33:18,014
- Refuse, and I will not come
- to your aid
- 1008
- 01:33:18,016 --> 01:33:19,549
- when they rebel again.
- 1009
- 01:33:19,551 --> 01:33:22,087
- Please...
- 1010
- 01:33:34,567 --> 01:33:36,170
- Come.
- 1011
- 01:33:40,607 --> 01:33:42,641
- Undress your lady.
- 1012
- 01:33:42,643 --> 01:33:45,979
- She has consented
- to be my wife.
- 1013
- 01:34:43,006 --> 01:34:45,007
- <i>A whore of Babylon</i>
- 1014
- 01:34:45,009 --> 01:34:47,710
- <i>who defies the sanctity
- of marriage.</i>
- 1015
- 01:34:47,712 --> 01:34:49,578
- <i>What's worse,</i>
- 1016
- 01:34:49,580 --> 01:34:53,048
- she has broken
- the most solemn commandment:
- 1017
- 01:34:53,050 --> 01:34:56,686
- Thou shalt not kill.
- 1018
- 01:34:56,688 --> 01:34:59,321
- She had her husband murdered
- 1019
- 01:34:59,323 --> 01:35:02,359
- so that she could wed
- his rival.
- 1020
- 01:35:02,361 --> 01:35:06,029
- Would we worship
- a murderous harlot?
- 1021
- 01:35:06,031 --> 01:35:10,233
- Queen Strumpet marries
- another man
- 1022
- 01:35:10,235 --> 01:35:12,770
- whom she bedded out of wedlock.
- 1023
- 01:35:12,772 --> 01:35:16,574
- Our kingdom has become
- a disgrace,
- 1024
- 01:35:16,576 --> 01:35:19,345
- to God and all the world!
- 1025
- 01:35:23,450 --> 01:35:25,283
- Death to the whore!
- 1026
- 01:35:25,285 --> 01:35:27,718
- Death to the whore!
- Death to the whore!
- 1027
- 01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:29,188
- Death to the whore!
- 1028
- 01:35:29,190 --> 01:35:31,189
- Death to the whore!
- Death to the whore!
- 1029
- 01:35:31,191 --> 01:35:32,458
- Death to the whore!
- 1030
- 01:35:32,460 --> 01:35:34,760
- Death to the whore!
- Death to the whore!
- 1031
- 01:35:34,762 --> 01:35:36,228
- Death to the whore!
- 1032
- 01:35:36,230 --> 01:35:38,497
- Death to the whore!
- Death to the whore!
- 1033
- 01:35:38,499 --> 01:35:40,569
- Death to the whore!
- Death to the whore...
- 1034
- 01:35:48,643 --> 01:35:51,444
- You promised I would be king.
- 1035
- 01:35:51,446 --> 01:35:54,447
- If your betrothed
- does abdicate,
- 1036
- 01:35:54,449 --> 01:35:56,750
- you are abdicated also.
- 1037
- 01:35:56,752 --> 01:35:58,284
- This was your intention.
- 1038
- 01:35:58,286 --> 01:36:00,387
- Events have overtaken
- all intentions.
- 1039
- 01:36:00,389 --> 01:36:01,589
- Liar!
- 1040
- 01:36:01,591 --> 01:36:02,959
- Liars.
- 1041
- 01:36:03,826 --> 01:36:06,126
- Events? Aye.
- 1042
- 01:36:06,128 --> 01:36:08,998
- Events by your design,
- is that not true?
- 1043
- 01:36:10,500 --> 01:36:12,334
- Speak, damn you.
- 1044
- 01:36:12,336 --> 01:36:15,069
- Be men and own your treachery.
- 1045
- 01:36:15,071 --> 01:36:16,605
- Did you not deceive me?
- 1046
- 01:36:16,607 --> 01:36:21,543
- As they have done their queen
- since the day she returned.
- 1047
- 01:36:21,545 --> 01:36:24,212
- Were you fool enough
- to trust these men?
- 1048
- 01:36:24,214 --> 01:36:27,050
- Who took up arms against you?
- 1049
- 01:36:27,751 --> 01:36:30,352
- You must abdicate, madam.
- 1050
- 01:36:30,354 --> 01:36:33,155
- When your son comes of age,
- he'll assume the throne.
- 1051
- 01:36:33,157 --> 01:36:35,357
- Until then,
- my lord will be regent.
- 1052
- 01:36:35,359 --> 01:36:37,360
- - Brother.
- - We found Mistress Seton.
- 1053
- 01:36:37,362 --> 01:36:41,163
- The boy is now
- in our custody at Holyrood.
- 1054
- 01:36:41,165 --> 01:36:43,232
- You hold my son prisoner?
- 1055
- 01:36:43,234 --> 01:36:45,536
- Not prisoner.
- 1056
- 01:36:45,538 --> 01:36:48,572
- He-he's my ward
- until he is old enough...
- 1057
- 01:36:48,574 --> 01:36:50,474
- Your namesake, James.
- 1058
- 01:36:50,476 --> 01:36:52,844
- Named for you.
- 1059
- 01:36:52,846 --> 01:36:55,712
- If you wish him
- to be king one day,
- 1060
- 01:36:55,714 --> 01:36:57,582
- you must abdicate.
- 1061
- 01:36:57,584 --> 01:37:00,151
- - I will not do it.
- - You will, madam.
- 1062
- 01:37:00,153 --> 01:37:01,419
- By force, if we must.
- 1063
- 01:37:01,421 --> 01:37:03,688
- I shall meet force with force.
- 1064
- 01:37:03,690 --> 01:37:07,291
- People believe you are
- a traitor and a whore.
- 1065
- 01:37:07,293 --> 01:37:08,694
- What army can defeat
- 1066
- 01:37:08,696 --> 01:37:11,362
- an entire nation
- turned against its queen?
- 1067
- 01:37:11,364 --> 01:37:13,666
- They would sooner parade
- your head on a pike
- 1068
- 01:37:13,668 --> 01:37:15,733
- than bow before a harlot.
- 1069
- 01:37:15,735 --> 01:37:19,172
- I for one would gladly
- hold high that pike.
- 1070
- 01:37:23,377 --> 01:37:25,344
- Well, he is right.
- You cannot raise an army.
- 1071
- 01:37:25,346 --> 01:37:29,350
- Many times you have said
- I cannot do what I have done.
- 1072
- 01:37:31,352 --> 01:37:34,356
- Then we are finished here.
- 1073
- 01:37:42,598 --> 01:37:43,897
- This is beyond my control.
- 1074
- 01:37:43,899 --> 01:37:45,365
- I ask you to reconsider.
- 1075
- 01:37:45,367 --> 01:37:48,369
- All I have done is try
- to unify this land.
- 1076
- 01:37:48,371 --> 01:37:50,338
- I know.
- 1077
- 01:37:50,340 --> 01:37:52,908
- To relinquish the crown
- would be against God's will.
- 1078
- 01:37:52,910 --> 01:37:54,842
- Oh, God will not protect you.
- 1079
- 01:37:54,844 --> 01:37:58,247
- I will protect you, as my kin.
- 1080
- 01:37:59,816 --> 01:38:02,283
- I wish that we were kin.
- 1081
- 01:38:02,285 --> 01:38:04,555
- But we are no longer so.
- 1082
- 01:39:01,015 --> 01:39:03,316
- I would.
- 1083
- 01:39:19,867 --> 01:39:23,538
- Are we to do nothing
- as my sister is deposed?
- 1084
- 01:39:25,908 --> 01:39:28,343
- She's not your sister.
- 1085
- 01:39:30,013 --> 01:39:32,582
- Nor can she be your successor.
- 1086
- 01:39:33,850 --> 01:39:37,785
- Not a woman whose own subjects
- call her a harlot.
- 1087
- 01:39:37,787 --> 01:39:40,354
- This is Cecil speaking.
- 1088
- 01:39:40,356 --> 01:39:42,625
- I speak for myself.
- 1089
- 01:39:43,893 --> 01:39:46,529
- Though all your council agrees.
- 1090
- 01:39:52,070 --> 01:39:54,371
- How cruel men are.
- 1091
- 01:40:31,811 --> 01:40:35,880
- England does not look
- so different from Scotland.
- 1092
- 01:40:35,882 --> 01:40:40,287
- Aye. They are sisters.
- 1093
- 01:41:34,778 --> 01:41:36,679
- Madam.
- 1094
- 01:41:36,681 --> 01:41:37,748
- Come away.
- 1095
- 01:42:10,049 --> 01:42:11,983
- I rode ahead.
- 1096
- 01:42:11,985 --> 01:42:14,520
- She'll be here soon.
- 1097
- 01:42:15,554 --> 01:42:17,557
- Remain here.
- 1098
- 01:43:01,104 --> 01:43:02,438
- Your Majesty.
- 1099
- 01:43:40,779 --> 01:43:42,480
- Cousin?
- 1100
- 01:43:43,182 --> 01:43:45,017
- Aye.
- 1101
- 01:43:47,886 --> 01:43:49,755
- Are you well?
- 1102
- 01:43:50,756 --> 01:43:53,592
- Your voice is not
- what I expected.
- 1103
- 01:43:54,760 --> 01:43:57,595
- What did you expect of it?
- 1104
- 01:43:57,597 --> 01:44:00,533
- I do not know.
- 1105
- 01:44:04,271 --> 01:44:07,107
- How I long to see your face.
- 1106
- 01:44:08,309 --> 01:44:10,775
- No one can know we meet.
- 1107
- 01:44:10,777 --> 01:44:12,745
- Yes, I have been instructed.
- 1108
- 01:44:12,747 --> 01:44:15,047
- If you speak of it to anyone,
- I shall deny.
- 1109
- 01:44:15,049 --> 01:44:17,649
- And I will regard
- your words as treason.
- 1110
- 01:44:17,651 --> 01:44:19,787
- Am I your subject now?
- 1111
- 01:44:21,089 --> 01:44:22,590
- No.
- 1112
- 01:44:23,324 --> 01:44:25,657
- You are not my subject.
- 1113
- 01:44:25,659 --> 01:44:28,663
- But you do seek my help.
- 1114
- 01:44:33,001 --> 01:44:36,605
- I am grateful
- for your protection.
- 1115
- 01:44:37,839 --> 01:44:40,641
- I'm pleased to grant it.
- 1116
- 01:44:40,643 --> 01:44:43,146
- How did it come to this?
- 1117
- 01:44:54,091 --> 01:44:56,093
- May I see you, sister?
- 1118
- 01:45:03,766 --> 01:45:06,070
- My eyes are weary from travel.
- 1119
- 01:45:11,909 --> 01:45:14,946
- I should have stayed true
- to your love.
- 1120
- 01:45:16,282 --> 01:45:20,217
- I should have followed
- your example and never married.
- 1121
- 01:45:20,219 --> 01:45:21,851
- Then you would have no son.
- 1122
- 01:45:21,853 --> 01:45:23,853
- Whose mother is
- without a crown,
- 1123
- 01:45:23,855 --> 01:45:26,722
- whose own throne is usurped
- by his uncle.
- 1124
- 01:45:26,724 --> 01:45:28,725
- You must have faith.
- 1125
- 01:45:28,727 --> 01:45:30,427
- Your brother
- will keep his word.
- 1126
- 01:45:30,429 --> 01:45:32,731
- I have no faith in him.
- 1127
- 01:45:34,900 --> 01:45:37,770
- I have only faith in you.
- 1128
- 01:45:39,939 --> 01:45:42,207
- You would let them
- show the world
- 1129
- 01:45:42,209 --> 01:45:45,812
- that a queen
- can so easily be forsworn?
- 1130
- 01:45:49,417 --> 01:45:51,750
- Answer me, sister.
- 1131
- 01:45:54,788 --> 01:45:56,455
- To war with Scotland
- 1132
- 01:45:56,457 --> 01:45:59,391
- and betray my own clergy
- on a Catholic's behalf,
- 1133
- 01:45:59,393 --> 01:46:01,293
- no, I cannot.
- 1134
- 01:46:01,295 --> 01:46:03,630
- You know I cannot.
- 1135
- 01:46:06,134 --> 01:46:09,169
- Did you come so far
- at such great risk
- 1136
- 01:46:09,171 --> 01:46:11,239
- only to refuse me?
- 1137
- 01:46:13,442 --> 01:46:15,776
- I came...
- 1138
- 01:46:17,779 --> 01:46:19,881
- I came because...
- 1139
- 01:46:30,893 --> 01:46:34,929
- If you refuse me an army,
- say it to my face.
- 1140
- 01:46:34,931 --> 01:46:38,101
- Do not force me to beg
- to your back.
- 1141
- 01:46:57,821 --> 01:47:00,256
- I will kneel
- before you if I must.
- 1142
- 01:47:00,258 --> 01:47:03,128
- It would make no difference.
- 1143
- 01:47:07,831 --> 01:47:10,900
- You are safe here in England.
- 1144
- 01:47:10,902 --> 01:47:13,836
- That's all I can offer.
- 1145
- 01:47:13,838 --> 01:47:17,843
- I have been abandoned
- by so many.
- 1146
- 01:47:21,180 --> 01:47:23,715
- I am utterly alone.
- 1147
- 01:47:25,285 --> 01:47:27,253
- As am I.
- 1148
- 01:47:29,489 --> 01:47:31,325
- Alone.
- 1149
- 01:47:32,392 --> 01:47:34,794
- Then be my sister.
- 1150
- 01:47:37,264 --> 01:47:39,732
- Be my boy's godmother.
- 1151
- 01:47:41,034 --> 01:47:43,802
- Together we could conquer
- all of those who doubt us.
- 1152
- 01:47:43,804 --> 01:47:45,804
- Do not play into their hands.
- 1153
- 01:47:45,806 --> 01:47:49,242
- Our enmity is precisely
- what they hope for.
- 1154
- 01:47:49,244 --> 01:47:51,577
- I know your heart
- has more within it
- 1155
- 01:47:51,579 --> 01:47:53,781
- than the men who counsel you.
- 1156
- 01:47:58,820 --> 01:48:01,923
- I am more man than woman now.
- 1157
- 01:48:02,991 --> 01:48:05,361
- The throne has made me so.
- 1158
- 01:48:08,198 --> 01:48:11,834
- But I have no enmity with you.
- 1159
- 01:48:13,403 --> 01:48:16,037
- Except to seed rebellion
- 1160
- 01:48:16,039 --> 01:48:19,172
- and to deceive me
- time and time again?
- 1161
- 01:48:19,174 --> 01:48:21,209
- If you still seek
- my protection,
- 1162
- 01:48:21,211 --> 01:48:23,278
- you would do well
- to watch your words.
- 1163
- 01:48:23,280 --> 01:48:25,782
- I will not be scolded
- by my inferior.
- 1164
- 01:48:26,584 --> 01:48:28,284
- Your inferior?
- 1165
- 01:48:28,286 --> 01:48:29,485
- I am a Stuart...
- 1166
- 01:48:29,487 --> 01:48:33,291
- which gives me greater claim
- to England than you possess.
- 1167
- 01:48:43,901 --> 01:48:46,536
- I had this made...
- 1168
- 01:48:46,538 --> 01:48:50,375
- because I wanted to present
- the best version of myself.
- 1169
- 01:48:56,382 --> 01:48:58,984
- I was jealous.
- 1170
- 01:49:03,388 --> 01:49:06,424
- Your beauty.
- 1171
- 01:49:06,426 --> 01:49:09,093
- Your bravery.
- 1172
- 01:49:09,095 --> 01:49:11,961
- Your motherhood.
- 1173
- 01:49:11,963 --> 01:49:15,134
- You seem to surpass me
- in every way.
- 1174
- 01:49:20,240 --> 01:49:23,976
- But now I see there is
- no cause for envy.
- 1175
- 01:49:26,647 --> 01:49:28,414
- Your gifts...
- 1176
- 01:49:28,416 --> 01:49:30,652
- are your downfall.
- 1177
- 01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:40,329
- What now, sister?
- 1178
- 01:49:44,166 --> 01:49:47,467
- You will still have
- my protection,
- 1179
- 01:49:47,469 --> 01:49:49,002
- under my terms.
- 1180
- 01:49:49,004 --> 01:49:50,604
- Until you have me killed?
- 1181
- 01:49:50,606 --> 01:49:52,272
- I will do no such thing.
- 1182
- 01:49:52,274 --> 01:49:54,007
- Wouldn't you?
- 1183
- 01:49:54,009 --> 01:49:56,143
- As Henry killed your mother?
- 1184
- 01:49:56,145 --> 01:49:59,546
- I am not my father.
- 1185
- 01:49:59,548 --> 01:50:01,917
- But you share his blood.
- 1186
- 01:50:05,021 --> 01:50:08,691
- As long as you
- do not provoke my enemies,
- 1187
- 01:50:08,693 --> 01:50:11,194
- you have nothing to fear.
- 1188
- 01:50:13,296 --> 01:50:16,300
- Your fate rests
- in your own hands.
- 1189
- 01:50:23,274 --> 01:50:26,142
- If I seek to help your enemies,
- 1190
- 01:50:26,144 --> 01:50:29,646
- 'tis only because you
- pushed me to their arms.
- 1191
- 01:50:29,648 --> 01:50:32,048
- And should you murder me...
- 1192
- 01:50:32,050 --> 01:50:35,518
- remember you murder
- your sister.
- 1193
- 01:50:35,520 --> 01:50:39,023
- And you murder your queen.
- 1194
- 01:51:02,315 --> 01:51:05,419
- Take her somewhere
- you can guard her well.
- 1195
- 01:51:49,633 --> 01:51:51,735
- It's time.
- 1196
- 01:51:54,103 --> 01:51:57,072
- <i>Sister...</i>
- 1197
- 01:51:57,074 --> 01:51:59,241
- <i>evidence has been
- presented to me,</i>
- 1198
- 01:51:59,243 --> 01:52:02,244
- <i>written in your hand.</i>
- 1199
- 01:52:02,246 --> 01:52:03,678
- <i>It shows that
- you have conspired</i>
- 1200
- 01:52:03,680 --> 01:52:06,518
- <i>with Catholic forces
- against my life.</i>
- 1201
- 01:52:08,119 --> 01:52:11,454
- <i>Whether these letters
- are in your hand or not,</i>
- 1202
- 01:52:11,456 --> 01:52:13,258
- <i>I must act.</i>
- 1203
- 01:52:14,626 --> 01:52:19,428
- <i>I wish I could speak
- these words to you directly,</i>
- 1204
- 01:52:19,430 --> 01:52:22,331
- <i>but they exist only in my mind,</i>
- 1205
- 01:52:22,333 --> 01:52:25,869
- <i>as both a prayer and a penance.</i>
- 1206
- 01:52:25,871 --> 01:52:28,440
- <i>I hope that God will hear them.</i>
- 1207
- 01:52:30,276 --> 01:52:33,210
- <i>Believe me when I tell you
- how it ages me</i>
- 1208
- 01:52:33,212 --> 01:52:35,712
- <i>to bear such a burden,</i>
- 1209
- 01:52:35,714 --> 01:52:37,882
- <i>ordering to death
- the only other woman</i>
- 1210
- 01:52:37,884 --> 01:52:42,522
- <i>who knows what it means to rule
- as a queen in this land.</i>
- 1211
- 01:53:04,813 --> 01:53:08,515
- <i>You were right when we spoke
- a half lifetime ago.</i>
- 1212
- 01:53:08,517 --> 01:53:11,618
- <i>You said the day would come.</i>
- 1213
- 01:53:11,620 --> 01:53:14,554
- <i>And that day has come.</i>
- 1214
- 01:53:14,556 --> 01:53:16,691
- <i>I regret not doing then
- what I do now,</i>
- 1215
- 01:53:16,693 --> 01:53:19,359
- <i>so that I could have
- spared you so many years</i>
- 1216
- 01:53:19,361 --> 01:53:21,662
- <i>of imprisonment and misery.</i>
- 1217
- 01:53:21,664 --> 01:53:24,365
- <i>If you would lay eyes
- upon me now,</i>
- 1218
- 01:53:24,367 --> 01:53:27,568
- <i>you would not recognize me.</i>
- 1219
- 01:53:27,570 --> 01:53:30,504
- <i>I have relinquished
- all sense of self</i>
- 1220
- 01:53:30,506 --> 01:53:34,775
- <i>to the throne which rules
- my every word and action.</i>
- 1221
- 01:53:34,777 --> 01:53:39,781
- <i>But when I think of you,
- I see not an aged woman,</i>
- 1222
- 01:53:39,783 --> 01:53:43,184
- <i>but rather the young,
- resplendent queen</i>
- 1223
- 01:53:43,186 --> 01:53:44,821
- <i>whose portrait
- I first gazed upon</i>
- 1224
- 01:53:44,823 --> 01:53:46,755
- <i>five and 20 years ago,</i>
- 1225
- 01:53:46,757 --> 01:53:50,292
- <i>and whose beauty shone
- so brightly when we met,</i>
- 1226
- 01:53:50,294 --> 01:53:52,530
- <i>despite her despair.</i>
- 1227
- 01:53:58,903 --> 01:54:03,473
- <i>I know God's arms will
- accept you in that likeness,</i>
- 1228
- 01:54:03,475 --> 01:54:05,676
- <i>as the young, fierce queen</i>
- 1229
- 01:54:05,678 --> 01:54:09,147
- <i>who I have always
- loved and admired.</i>
- 1230
- 01:54:12,318 --> 01:54:15,688
- <i>May your soul
- have pity on mine.</i>
- 1231
- 01:54:24,297 --> 01:54:26,298
- Your Grace.
- 1232
- 01:54:32,005 --> 01:54:33,975
- Your Grace.
- 1233
- 01:55:00,636 --> 01:55:03,439
- By order of our sovereign
- Elizabeth...
- 1234
- 01:55:04,641 --> 01:55:08,476
- ...Queen of England,
- Wales and Ireland;
- 1235
- 01:55:08,478 --> 01:55:10,878
- Overlord of Scotland;
- 1236
- 01:55:10,880 --> 01:55:15,348
- certified by her privy council
- and Parliament...
- 1237
- 01:55:15,350 --> 01:55:18,488
- Mary Stuart
- is condemned to death...
- 1238
- 01:55:22,559 --> 01:55:25,894
- ...this day, February the 8th,
- 1239
- 01:55:25,896 --> 01:55:28,999
- the year of our Lord 1587.
- 1240
- 01:55:35,906 --> 01:55:38,743
- She thinks herself a martyr.
- 1241
- 01:55:42,614 --> 01:55:44,414
- James...
- 1242
- 01:55:44,416 --> 01:55:47,617
- my only son...
- 1243
- 01:55:47,619 --> 01:55:49,786
- I pray that with your life
- 1244
- 01:55:49,788 --> 01:55:52,823
- you will succeed
- where I could not,
- 1245
- 01:55:52,825 --> 01:55:56,527
- and for which
- I am about to give my life.
- 1246
- 01:55:56,529 --> 01:56:00,598
- <i>In my end is my beginning.</i>
- 1247
- 01:56:00,600 --> 01:56:04,602
- <i>I shall be watching you
- from Heaven...</i>
- 1248
- 01:56:04,604 --> 01:56:08,809
- <i>as your crown one day
- unites two kingdoms.</i>
- 1249
- 01:56:18,452 --> 01:56:21,288
- And we shall have peace.
- 1250
