- 00:01:32,283 --> 00:01:32,951
- How was my speech?
- 3
- 00:01:33,284 --> 00:01:34,650
- You were brilliant.
- 4
- 00:01:34,652 --> 00:01:35,986
- - Did I lisp?
- - You don't lisp.
- 5
- 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:37,853
- I know. That was what was
- so troubling about it.
- 6
- 00:01:37,855 --> 00:01:39,957
- - The thought that I suddenly did.
- - No.
- 7
- 00:01:40,524 --> 00:01:42,391
- Sarah, you must say hello
- to the little ones.
- 8
- 00:01:42,393 --> 00:01:44,629
- No. It is macabre.
- 9
- 00:01:45,396 --> 00:01:46,397
- Please.
- 10
- 00:01:46,763 --> 00:01:47,798
- No.
- 11
- 00:01:48,364 --> 00:01:49,731
- I love you,
- but that I will not do.
- 12
- 00:01:49,733 --> 00:01:51,466
- - If you love me...
- - Love has limits.
- 13
- 00:01:51,468 --> 00:01:52,704
- It should not.
- 14
- 00:02:19,629 --> 00:02:22,530
- You do not lisp,
- but you are mad.
- 15
- 00:02:22,532 --> 00:02:23,800
- Giving me a palace?
- 16
- 00:02:25,102 --> 00:02:27,501
- I've been wanting to give you
- something for quite some time now.
- 17
- 00:02:27,503 --> 00:02:30,104
- Seemed like the perfect opportunity
- with Marlborough winning.
- 18
- 00:02:30,106 --> 00:02:33,574
- It is a monstrous extravagance, Mrs.
- Morley. We are at war.
- 19
- 00:02:33,576 --> 00:02:34,611
- We won.
- 20
- 00:02:34,944 --> 00:02:36,847
- It is not over.
- We must continue.
- 21
- 00:02:37,881 --> 00:02:38,782
- Oh.
- 22
- 00:02:39,717 --> 00:02:40,818
- Oh, I did not know that.
- 23
- 00:03:38,675 --> 00:03:39,811
- Take a hunk of bread.
- 24
- 00:03:42,979 --> 00:03:46,483
- And then Sally will take you to
- clean up and then to Her Ladyship.
- 25
- 00:04:02,900 --> 00:04:04,468
- This mud stinks.
- 26
- 00:04:05,102 --> 00:04:06,704
- They shit
- in the streets round here.
- 27
- 00:04:07,437 --> 00:04:08,905
- "Political commentary,"
- they call it.
- 28
- 00:04:09,439 --> 00:04:10,505
- Go through here.
- 29
- 00:04:10,507 --> 00:04:11,475
- Clean yourself up.
- 30
- 00:04:12,575 --> 00:04:13,610
- Thank you so much.
- 31
- 00:04:23,086 --> 00:04:24,122
- Lady Marlborough.
- 32
- 00:04:25,755 --> 00:04:27,824
- I didn't know the new sewer
- ended in here.
- 33
- 00:04:28,725 --> 00:04:30,862
- It is I, Abigail.
- 34
- 00:04:31,862 --> 00:04:32,897
- Dear cousin.
- 35
- 00:04:33,896 --> 00:04:35,466
- I have a letter
- from our aunt...
- 36
- 00:04:36,233 --> 00:04:37,468
- and...
- 37
- 00:04:39,603 --> 00:04:41,538
- I'm sorry, I did not mean
- to present as a...
- 38
- 00:04:42,538 --> 00:04:44,108
- I fell out of a carriage.
- 39
- 00:04:49,713 --> 00:04:50,748
- And a man was pulling his...
- 40
- 00:04:54,750 --> 00:04:56,086
- Never mind the man.
- 41
- 00:04:56,752 --> 00:04:57,854
- The letter from our aunt.
- 42
- 00:05:00,891 --> 00:05:01,926
- Friends of yours?
- 43
- 00:05:02,793 --> 00:05:04,028
- I'm sorry.
- 44
- 00:05:04,694 --> 00:05:06,594
- Your name, girl.
- If we are blood, name it.
- 45
- 00:05:06,596 --> 00:05:09,697
- - I did not? Abigail Hill.
- - The Somerset Hills?
- 46
- 00:05:09,699 --> 00:05:12,901
- The one who went mad and burnt
- his own house down, himself in it?
- 47
- 00:05:12,903 --> 00:05:14,769
- Lost all his money
- at whist.
- 48
- 00:05:14,771 --> 00:05:16,271
- No one bets on whist.
- 49
- 00:05:16,273 --> 00:05:17,938
- My uncle was one of a kind.
- 50
- 00:05:17,940 --> 00:05:19,974
- I apologize
- for my appearance.
- 51
- 00:05:19,976 --> 00:05:23,043
- The staff led me here. A harmless
- prank of some sort, I suspect.
- 52
- 00:05:23,045 --> 00:05:24,182
- And you want...
- 53
- 00:05:24,747 --> 00:05:26,947
- I hoped I might be
- employed here by you...
- 54
- 00:05:26,949 --> 00:05:27,985
- as something.
- 55
- 00:05:29,019 --> 00:05:30,620
- A monster for the children
- to play with, perhaps?
- 56
- 00:05:31,855 --> 00:05:32,956
- Yes, if you like.
- 57
- 00:06:31,747 --> 00:06:32,716
- A palace.
- 58
- 00:06:33,083 --> 00:06:34,281
- You seem angry
- at my good fortune
- 59
- 00:06:34,283 --> 00:06:35,817
- and I thought
- we were friends.
- 60
- 00:06:35,819 --> 00:06:37,685
- I really doubt
- you've made that mistake.
- 61
- 00:06:37,687 --> 00:06:39,890
- I was actually just teasing.
- I thought you'd see that.
- 62
- 00:06:40,656 --> 00:06:41,658
- It will not stand.
- 63
- 00:06:43,093 --> 00:06:45,961
- Well, it will if I build it using
- the finest craftsmen in the land.
- 64
- 00:06:45,963 --> 00:06:47,695
- I hope it will stand
- for 100 years
- 65
- 00:06:47,697 --> 00:06:49,699
- as a symbol of my husband's
- gallant victory.
- 66
- 00:06:49,966 --> 00:06:51,865
- Listen, I applaud your
- husband's gallant victory,
- 67
- 00:06:51,867 --> 00:06:53,904
- but considering the parlous
- state of the treasury,
- 68
- 00:06:54,170 --> 00:06:57,005
- it seems something the queen should've
- taken advice from her loyal opposition on.
- 69
- 00:06:57,007 --> 00:06:59,709
- Oh, but then it would've lost
- its delightful surprise element.
- 70
- 00:07:00,142 --> 00:07:01,211
- Cunt!
- 71
- 00:07:01,644 --> 00:07:03,146
- Horatio has done it again.
- 72
- 00:07:03,379 --> 00:07:05,680
- Prime Minister, we need to
- discuss who will go to the French
- 73
- 00:07:05,682 --> 00:07:06,981
- with the
- peace treaty proposal.
- 74
- 00:07:06,983 --> 00:07:08,382
- We do not need
- a peace treaty proposal.
- 75
- 00:07:08,384 --> 00:07:09,784
- We have them on the run.
- 76
- 00:07:09,786 --> 00:07:10,985
- So they will give in to us.
- 77
- 00:07:10,987 --> 00:07:12,689
- One battle
- will not win the war.
- 78
- 00:07:12,956 --> 00:07:15,022
- I have held my party together,
- as we the country landowners
- 79
- 00:07:15,024 --> 00:07:16,925
- have essentially paid
- for this entire war...
- 80
- 00:07:16,927 --> 00:07:18,129
- And grateful we are, too.
- 81
- 00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:20,331
- ...while city merchants
- enrich themselves from it.
- 82
- 00:07:21,264 --> 00:07:23,063
- And yet I do not see
- your fat tweedy dead
- 83
- 00:07:23,065 --> 00:07:24,899
- when I look out
- upon the battlefield.
- 84
- 00:07:24,901 --> 00:07:26,203
- We're out of money. My point.
- 85
- 00:07:26,769 --> 00:07:28,870
- The French are chastened,
- but not defeated, Harley.
- 86
- 00:07:28,872 --> 00:07:30,337
- We must destroy them.
- 87
- 00:07:30,339 --> 00:07:31,940
- Make them sue for peace
- 88
- 00:07:31,942 --> 00:07:33,343
- with broken hearts
- and begging backs.
- 89
- 00:07:33,843 --> 00:07:36,310
- - How sweet your wife is, Marlborough.
- - Sweet and right.
- 90
- 00:07:36,312 --> 00:07:38,315
- I cannot agree.
- We must take it to the queen.
- 91
- 00:07:38,649 --> 00:07:41,115
- If you'd be kind enough to
- arrange a time, Lady Marlborough.
- 92
- 00:07:41,117 --> 00:07:42,019
- Of course.
- 93
- 00:08:34,738 --> 00:08:36,641
- I'm ready
- for the Russian ambassador.
- 94
- 00:08:37,707 --> 00:08:38,642
- Who did your makeup?
- 95
- 00:08:39,176 --> 00:08:40,878
- We went for something
- dramatic. Do you like it?
- 96
- 00:08:41,812 --> 00:08:43,014
- You look like a badger.
- 97
- 00:08:43,846 --> 00:08:44,749
- Oh.
- 98
- 00:08:46,249 --> 00:08:48,819
- Are you going to cry? Really?
- 99
- 00:08:49,852 --> 00:08:52,255
- Well, what do you think
- you look like?
- 100
- 00:08:56,927 --> 00:08:57,961
- A badger.
- 101
- 00:08:59,429 --> 00:09:02,232
- Do you really think you can meet the
- Russian delegation looking like that?
- 102
- 00:09:03,466 --> 00:09:04,367
- No.
- 103
- 00:09:04,967 --> 00:09:06,069
- I will manage it.
- 104
- 00:09:07,169 --> 00:09:08,238
- Get back to your rooms.
- 105
- 00:09:09,206 --> 00:09:10,240
- Thank you.
- 106
- 00:09:19,381 --> 00:09:21,685
- Did you just look at me?
- Did you?
- 107
- 00:09:22,119 --> 00:09:24,451
- Look at me! Look at me!
- 108
- 00:09:24,453 --> 00:09:26,690
- How dare you? Close your eyes!
- 109
- 00:09:42,905 --> 00:09:43,940
- Hello.
- 110
- 00:09:44,374 --> 00:09:45,341
- Hello.
- 111
- 00:09:46,208 --> 00:09:47,711
- Mrs. Meg says you are
- to scrub the floor
- 112
- 00:09:48,712 --> 00:09:50,113
- until she can see
- her toothless, fat face in it.
- 113
- 00:09:50,547 --> 00:09:51,782
- Sorry.
- 114
- 00:10:21,510 --> 00:10:22,746
- You might need gloves.
- 115
- 00:10:23,245 --> 00:10:25,783
- Lye is dangerous.
- It burns bad.
- 116
- 00:10:41,597 --> 00:10:43,064
- Sarah!
- 117
- 00:10:43,066 --> 00:10:44,199
- I'm here.
- 118
- 00:10:44,201 --> 00:10:45,269
- I'm here.
- 119
- 00:10:47,537 --> 00:10:50,470
- You! Grab the bandage box
- off the shelf.
- 120
- 00:10:50,472 --> 00:10:52,909
- The queen's had an attack
- of gout. Hurry!
- 121
- 00:11:14,998 --> 00:11:16,267
- Mrs. Meg, brandy.
- 122
- 00:11:20,370 --> 00:11:21,636
- It hurts.
- 123
- 00:11:21,638 --> 00:11:24,008
- My dearest, I know.
- 124
- 00:11:29,645 --> 00:11:31,048
- Cousin, the beef.
- 125
- 00:11:33,283 --> 00:11:34,451
- Tell me a story.
- 126
- 00:11:35,051 --> 00:11:36,184
- I can't.
- 127
- 00:11:36,186 --> 00:11:37,118
- Ow!
- 128
- 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:37,953
- Gently.
- 129
- 00:11:40,190 --> 00:11:41,492
- - I can't.
- - Yes, you can.
- 130
- 00:11:42,591 --> 00:11:43,894
- Cousin, start wrapping.
- 131
- 00:11:45,361 --> 00:11:46,596
- Everyone else, leave please.
- 132
- 00:11:51,567 --> 00:11:53,203
- How we first met.
- Tell me that.
- 133
- 00:11:56,172 --> 00:12:00,208
- The wretched Cheever boy
- had me on the ground
- 134
- 00:12:00,210 --> 00:12:03,111
- and he was holding me and
- dropping spittle in my face.
- 135
- 00:12:03,113 --> 00:12:04,515
- He is still a pig. Then what?
- 136
- 00:12:10,086 --> 00:12:11,621
- <i>And then I heard footsteps.</i>
- 137
- 00:12:13,423 --> 00:12:14,625
- <i>Fast footsteps.</i>
- 138
- 00:12:16,458 --> 00:12:17,527
- <i>Ow, ow!</i>
- 139
- 00:12:22,065 --> 00:12:25,035
- <i>And I saw these pink shoes
- running towards me.</i>
- 140
- 00:12:27,636 --> 00:12:29,138
- <i>And then they disappeared.</i>
- 141
- 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,949
- <i>And then I heard a crack.</i>
- 142
- 00:12:41,350 --> 00:12:42,620
- <i>And then he fell off me.</i>
- 143
- 00:12:48,057 --> 00:12:51,291
- And you held my hand and said,
- "Hello. I'm Sarah.
- 144
- 00:12:51,293 --> 00:12:53,596
- You're covered in spittle.
- Let's wash you off."
- 145
- 00:12:59,568 --> 00:13:01,069
- <i>Do you remember
- how his jaw just hung there?</i>
- 146
- 00:13:01,071 --> 00:13:02,473
- <i>I do.</i>
- 147
- 00:13:05,508 --> 00:13:07,610
- <i>You must try to sleep.</i>
- 148
- 00:13:11,081 --> 00:13:12,149
- You may go.
- 149
- 00:13:12,682 --> 00:13:14,151
- - Don't leave me!
- - I won't.
- 150
- 00:13:20,222 --> 00:13:21,524
- - Are you still there?
- - Yes.
- 151
- 00:13:30,700 --> 00:13:32,102
- - Are you still there?
- - Yes.
- 152
- 00:14:16,346 --> 00:14:19,280
- For the queen. The
- doctor's ordered it immediately.
- 153
- 00:14:19,282 --> 00:14:20,718
- It's a matter
- of extreme urgency.
- 154
- 00:14:21,051 --> 00:14:22,152
- She's sleeping.
- 155
- 00:14:24,354 --> 00:14:26,421
- Shall I tell the doctor you
- imperiled the queen's health
- 156
- 00:14:26,423 --> 00:14:28,292
- and let you rue
- the ramifications?
- 157
- 00:14:29,491 --> 00:14:31,694
- What does "ramific..."
- 158
- 00:14:32,195 --> 00:14:33,998
- It means he will
- have you whipped.
- 159
- 00:15:11,366 --> 00:15:12,435
- What are you doing?
- 160
- 00:15:13,202 --> 00:15:15,304
- This is peleatis, the herb.
- 161
- 00:15:15,839 --> 00:15:17,274
- I cut some this morning.
- 162
- 00:15:17,506 --> 00:15:18,775
- It reduces swelling
- and inflammation.
- 163
- 00:15:19,109 --> 00:15:20,340
- I thought
- it may help the queen.
- 164
- 00:15:20,342 --> 00:15:21,745
- You cannot just walk in here.
- 165
- 00:15:22,511 --> 00:15:24,313
- Why did the footman
- let you through?
- 166
- 00:15:25,782 --> 00:15:27,681
- It's not his fault.
- I lied to him.
- 167
- 00:15:27,683 --> 00:15:29,617
- The prime minister
- and Mr. Marlborough.
- 168
- 00:15:29,619 --> 00:15:32,386
- I just wanted to help her.
- She seemed to suffer so much.
- 169
- 00:15:32,388 --> 00:15:34,792
- Footman. Take her downstairs.
- 170
- 00:15:35,258 --> 00:15:38,228
- Tell Mrs. Meg she is to
- receive six of the birch. Go.
- 171
- 00:15:39,528 --> 00:15:41,432
- It's peleatis, the herb.
- 172
- 00:15:47,236 --> 00:15:50,073
- Anne, you must focus.
- 173
- 00:15:50,773 --> 00:15:54,812
- We gather our forces here.
- The Austrians mass here.
- 174
- 00:15:55,677 --> 00:15:57,411
- Which country is that again?
- 175
- 00:15:57,413 --> 00:15:59,115
- Listen. Marlborough.
- 176
- 00:15:59,481 --> 00:16:00,783
- This is the town of Lille,
- 177
- 00:16:01,551 --> 00:16:04,388
- in a valley in France.
- 178
- 00:16:04,653 --> 00:16:07,821
- We lure them in by sending
- a small force to engage them.
- 179
- 00:16:07,823 --> 00:16:09,390
- They give chase.
- 180
- 00:16:09,392 --> 00:16:11,559
- We descend in numbers
- from above.
- 181
- 00:16:11,561 --> 00:16:14,295
- - Hear, hear!
- - Hear, hear! It is an excellent plan.
- 182
- 00:16:14,297 --> 00:16:15,599
- Queen Anne, do you agree?
- 183
- 00:16:16,298 --> 00:16:18,268
- The people
- expect it to be over.
- 184
- 00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:21,838
- Well, we all want it to be over,
- but wishing does not make it so.
- 185
- 00:16:22,404 --> 00:16:25,241
- We could sue for peace,
- but we will not get it.
- 186
- 00:16:26,208 --> 00:16:27,243
- It does help.
- 187
- 00:16:29,812 --> 00:16:32,613
- - What?
- - There's something soothing on my legs,
- 188
- 00:16:32,615 --> 00:16:34,382
- it takes the burn out.
- What is it?
- 189
- 00:16:34,384 --> 00:16:36,353
- Oh, herbs, of some sort.
- 190
- 00:16:41,791 --> 00:16:43,660
- Please, please.
- 191
- 00:16:46,729 --> 00:16:48,662
- What is going on?
- Do her in the barn,
- 192
- 00:16:48,664 --> 00:16:50,464
- if that's what it is,
- not in my kitchen.
- 193
- 00:16:50,466 --> 00:16:52,800
- Her Ladyship says six
- of the birch for this one.
- 194
- 00:17:07,849 --> 00:17:08,784
- Stop.
- 195
- 00:17:09,719 --> 00:17:10,721
- Let her go.
- 196
- 00:17:11,487 --> 00:17:12,556
- Come with me.
- 197
- 00:17:18,928 --> 00:17:21,398
- So, you are perhaps too kind
- for your own good.
- 198
- 00:17:22,531 --> 00:17:23,799
- It has been said.
- 199
- 00:17:24,567 --> 00:17:25,836
- Which leads to stupidity.
- 200
- 00:17:28,503 --> 00:17:30,740
- The queen is soothed
- somewhat, so I thank you.
- 201
- 00:17:31,307 --> 00:17:33,242
- You will get me some
- more of those herbs
- 202
- 00:17:33,710 --> 00:17:35,211
- and not overstep again.
- 203
- 00:17:37,579 --> 00:17:39,448
- My father always
- spoke highly of you.
- 204
- 00:17:40,950 --> 00:17:42,286
- I liked your father.
- 205
- 00:17:42,719 --> 00:17:44,288
- He had charm to burn.
- 206
- 00:17:45,488 --> 00:17:46,523
- Then I guess he did.
- 207
- 00:17:49,592 --> 00:17:50,826
- You have fallen far.
- 208
- 00:17:52,894 --> 00:17:55,398
- When I was 15, my father
- lost me in a card game.
- 209
- 00:17:55,999 --> 00:17:57,534
- You are not serious.
- 210
- 00:17:58,768 --> 00:17:59,803
- This one here.
- 211
- 00:18:00,737 --> 00:18:02,239
- <i>He was very upset about it.</i>
- 212
- 00:18:03,506 --> 00:18:05,506
- <i>Took off into the forest with
- nothing but a scullery maid</i>
- 213
- 00:18:05,508 --> 00:18:07,374
- <i>and a dozen bottles
- for solace.</i>
- 214
- 00:18:07,376 --> 00:18:08,478
- <i>And you went?</i>
- 215
- 00:18:09,545 --> 00:18:10,814
- <i>I wanted to do right
- by my father.</i>
- 216
- 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,850
- The debt was to a balloon-shaped
- German man with a thin cock.
- 217
- 00:18:15,884 --> 00:18:19,589
- Thankfully, I managed to convince him a
- woman has her blood in 28 days a month.
- 218
- 00:18:24,559 --> 00:18:25,796
- What happened to your hand?
- 219
- 00:18:27,196 --> 00:18:31,300
- <i>Some of my... colleagues
- are immune to my charms.</i>
- 220
- 00:18:45,515 --> 00:18:47,614
- Earl Stratford, do not
- come near me whining today
- 221
- 00:18:47,616 --> 00:18:49,619
- or I will crush
- your tiny heart to liver.
- 222
- 00:18:50,787 --> 00:18:54,721
- Madame Tournee. You may have the
- tapestry budget you asked for.
- 223
- 00:18:54,723 --> 00:18:57,426
- Spend one penny more and I will
- take your fingernails in lieu.
- 224
- 00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:58,961
- Merci.
- 225
- 00:19:00,329 --> 00:19:04,998
- Abigail, get a platter of oysters
- sent to the Dutch ambassador.
- 226
- 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,302
- Yes, Your Ladyship.
- 227
- 00:19:06,769 --> 00:19:07,938
- Colonel Masham.
- 228
- 00:19:09,538 --> 00:19:10,770
- Lady Marlborough.
- 229
- 00:19:10,772 --> 00:19:12,442
- The queen will ride
- on Wednesday.
- 230
- 00:19:13,343 --> 00:19:14,644
- Yes, Lady Marlborough.
- 231
- 00:19:15,846 --> 00:19:17,847
- Would you like a bite of my
- new maid before you leave?
- 232
- 00:19:33,496 --> 00:19:34,798
- Must the duck be here?
- 233
- 00:19:36,932 --> 00:19:38,634
- Fastest duck in the city.
- 234
- 00:19:39,067 --> 00:19:42,569
- Horatio is a prize worth stealing.
- He does not leave my side.
- 235
- 00:19:42,571 --> 00:19:45,941
- Keep him away from me, or I will pull his
- liver out and eat it with a cornichon.
- 236
- 00:19:46,976 --> 00:19:48,011
- Charming.
- 237
- 00:19:48,678 --> 00:19:50,510
- You should know
- I've canvassed my party.
- 238
- 00:19:50,512 --> 00:19:52,816
- They're waiting for us to
- announce an attempt at peace.
- 239
- 00:19:53,516 --> 00:19:55,583
- We shall both make our case
- to the queen.
- 240
- 00:19:55,585 --> 00:19:57,985
- Yes, where is the queen?
- We've been waiting an hour.
- 241
- 00:19:57,987 --> 00:19:59,723
- - Lady Sarah Marlborough.
- - I'm here.
- 242
- 00:20:00,021 --> 00:20:02,055
- Might I remind you
- you're not the queen?
- 243
- 00:20:02,057 --> 00:20:04,924
- No, she has sent me to speak for her.
- She is unwell.
- 244
- 00:20:04,926 --> 00:20:06,093
- What says she?
- 245
- 00:20:06,095 --> 00:20:07,995
- That Harley is
- a fop and a prat
- 246
- 00:20:07,997 --> 00:20:09,796
- and smells like a 96-year-old
- French whore's vajuju.
- 247
- 00:20:09,798 --> 00:20:10,701
- Oh?
- 248
- 00:20:11,500 --> 00:20:12,501
- Well, I really doubt
- you're quoting.
- 249
- 00:20:13,402 --> 00:20:14,071
- She has decided
- to continue with the war.
- 250
- 00:20:14,738 --> 00:20:15,739
- She feels another victory in
- 251
- 00:20:16,740 --> 00:20:17,705
- will put us in a stronger
- position for a treaty.
- 252
- 00:20:17,707 --> 00:20:18,742
- Her letters.
- 253
- 00:20:19,675 --> 00:20:21,174
- And how are we going
- to pay for this?
- 254
- 00:20:21,176 --> 00:20:23,379
- The land tax is to be doubled.
- 255
- 00:20:23,645 --> 00:20:24,681
- This is madness.
- 256
- 00:20:25,882 --> 00:20:28,681
- The war you will be fighting
- will be in our own countryside.
- 257
- 00:20:28,683 --> 00:20:31,786
- She relies on you and your love of
- England to hold the Tories together.
- 258
- 00:20:31,788 --> 00:20:33,921
- - There are limits.
- - The love of your country?
- 259
- 00:20:33,923 --> 00:20:35,491
- To me,
- there is no limit on that.
- 260
- 00:20:35,724 --> 00:20:37,991
- Our last farthing to protect
- England if we must.
- 261
- 00:20:37,993 --> 00:20:39,428
- And our last man, too?
- 262
- 00:20:39,628 --> 00:20:42,062
- Look, the dead pile up,
- as do the resentments.
- 263
- 00:20:42,064 --> 00:20:44,532
- - Or that does not concern you?
- - I grieve them all.
- 264
- 00:20:44,534 --> 00:20:48,035
- In my heart, a scar for each, and I send
- my own beloved with them, chest bared.
- 265
- 00:20:48,037 --> 00:20:49,806
- So do not lecture me
- on the cost.
- 266
- 00:20:50,138 --> 00:20:53,641
- A treaty would save money
- and lives. A win for all Englishmen.
- 267
- 00:20:53,643 --> 00:20:56,744
- We go to them after
- one victory, they know we are scared.
- 268
- 00:20:56,746 --> 00:20:59,113
- We bury more of them,
- they know we have them.
- 269
- 00:20:59,115 --> 00:21:00,948
- The queen
- has decided, Harley.
- 270
- 00:21:00,950 --> 00:21:01,985
- I disagree.
- 271
- 00:21:03,353 --> 00:21:06,053
- A lot. I'd like an audience with
- the queen where I may state my case.
- 272
- 00:21:06,055 --> 00:21:09,789
- State it to me. I love a comedy.
- Is there cake?
- 273
- 00:21:09,791 --> 00:21:12,793
- This is a disgusting
- distortion of the system.
- 274
- 00:21:12,795 --> 00:21:14,161
- You have no place in this.
- 275
- 00:21:14,163 --> 00:21:15,728
- Your mascara is running.
- 276
- 00:21:15,730 --> 00:21:16,963
- If you'd like to go
- fix yourself,
- 277
- 00:21:16,965 --> 00:21:18,167
- we can continue this later.
- 278
- 00:21:28,678 --> 00:21:30,177
- You will need to pay
- for the repair of that.
- 279
- 00:21:30,179 --> 00:21:33,247
- We have a war to finance.
- Every penny counts.
- 280
- 00:21:33,249 --> 00:21:35,184
- Come on, old bean.
- One more victory.
- 281
- 00:21:46,061 --> 00:21:47,463
- Must you rub it in?
- 282
- 00:21:48,964 --> 00:21:51,865
- A man's dignity is the one thing that
- holds him back from running amok.
- 283
- 00:21:51,867 --> 00:21:54,203
- Sometimes a lady
- likes to have some fun.
- 284
- 00:21:56,204 --> 00:21:58,107
- We need to be careful, Sarah.
- 285
- 00:21:58,875 --> 00:22:02,077
- He's a useful ally,
- but a dangerous enemy.
- 286
- 00:22:06,249 --> 00:22:07,550
- Borrow anything you want.
- 287
- 00:22:08,284 --> 00:22:09,519
- Thank you.
- 288
- 00:22:09,951 --> 00:22:11,054
- And thank you for the job.
- 289
- 00:22:12,288 --> 00:22:13,888
- I have a thing for the weak.
- 290
- 00:22:13,890 --> 00:22:15,021
- Lord Marlborough.
- 291
- 00:22:15,023 --> 00:22:16,058
- It is time.
- 292
- 00:22:19,694 --> 00:22:20,896
- You must be safe.
- 293
- 00:22:21,663 --> 00:22:23,998
- You must not be
- foolish and brave.
- 294
- 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,065
- Be smart and safe, I beg you.
- 295
- 00:22:26,067 --> 00:22:26,970
- I will.
- 296
- 00:22:27,269 --> 00:22:28,605
- Stay with me tonight.
- 297
- 00:22:29,771 --> 00:22:32,509
- I must sleep with my men.
- It is only right.
- 298
- 00:22:41,817 --> 00:22:43,717
- <i>I had a dream that this</i>
- 299
- 00:22:43,719 --> 00:22:45,588
- <i>very small Frenchman
- covered in blood...</i>
- 300
- 00:22:46,655 --> 00:22:49,259
- <i>was carrying Marlborough's
- head around, feeding it Brie.</i>
- 301
- 00:22:56,699 --> 00:22:58,034
- He's a great soldier.
- 302
- 00:22:59,035 --> 00:23:00,070
- He will be fine.
- 303
- 00:23:01,336 --> 00:23:03,973
- - We will prevail.
- - Of course we will, Mrs. Freeman.
- 304
- 00:23:18,354 --> 00:23:19,756
- I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
- 305
- 00:23:20,923 --> 00:23:23,690
- I think I caught a chill
- picking the herbs for your leg.
- 306
- 00:23:23,692 --> 00:23:25,295
- - That was you?
- - Abigail.
- 307
- 00:23:37,105 --> 00:23:38,575
- Let's shoot something.
- 308
- 00:23:42,979 --> 00:23:45,915
- It's sad really.
- They're so pretty.
- 309
- 00:23:54,957 --> 00:23:55,926
- Throw.
- 310
- 00:23:59,828 --> 00:24:01,630
- You're really
- doing damage to the sky.
- 311
- 00:24:02,365 --> 00:24:03,833
- Can I ask you something?
- 312
- 00:24:04,032 --> 00:24:05,901
- As long as you are aware
- that I have a gun.
- 313
- 00:24:06,868 --> 00:24:09,838
- You fought hard for this war and
- your husband is at the front of it.
- 314
- 00:24:11,140 --> 00:24:12,576
- His life is at risk.
- 315
- 00:24:14,042 --> 00:24:16,110
- - How can you do that?
- - It is right.
- 316
- 00:24:16,112 --> 00:24:18,277
- If we don't do it, they will
- gather force and be over here
- 317
- 00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:20,215
- cutting us all
- into chops within the year.
- 318
- 00:24:20,415 --> 00:24:24,017
- You are of a sweet disposition
- and have suffered blows,
- 319
- 00:24:24,019 --> 00:24:26,823
- so desire safety and favor
- above all else.
- 320
- 00:24:28,156 --> 00:24:29,192
- If he dies?
- 321
- 00:24:30,660 --> 00:24:34,163
- Did you not sacrifice your cunt
- to fatty German to save your father?
- 322
- 00:24:35,830 --> 00:24:38,334
- - Yes.
- - There's always a price to pay.
- 323
- 00:24:38,667 --> 00:24:39,835
- I am prepared
- to pay it.
- 324
- 00:24:40,803 --> 00:24:41,838
- Throw.
- 325
- 00:24:48,411 --> 00:24:49,645
- Just relax and aim.
- 326
- 00:24:51,313 --> 00:24:53,249
- When it crosses your eye,
- pull the trigger.
- 327
- 00:24:57,819 --> 00:24:58,721
- Throw.
- 328
- 00:25:02,924 --> 00:25:03,859
- Perfect.
- 329
- 00:25:04,859 --> 00:25:06,395
- I will make
- a killer of you yet.
- 330
- 00:25:24,180 --> 00:25:25,347
- Are you following me?
- 331
- 00:25:28,750 --> 00:25:29,982
- I said,
- are you following me?
- 332
- 00:25:29,984 --> 00:25:31,387
- You seem to be
- following me, sir,
- 333
- 00:25:31,721 --> 00:25:32,922
- as I am in front of you.
- 334
- 00:25:37,893 --> 00:25:39,996
- That was you I saw
- on the horse that morning.
- 335
- 00:25:40,429 --> 00:25:43,233
- I am a servant.
- Where would I get a horse?
- 336
- 00:25:44,066 --> 00:25:45,300
- Perhaps you dreamt of me?
- 337
- 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:46,935
- Perhaps it was you,
- 338
- 00:25:47,202 --> 00:25:49,036
- and I should have you
- stripped and whipped.
- 339
- 00:25:49,038 --> 00:25:50,105
- I'm waiting.
- 340
- 00:25:59,248 --> 00:26:00,917
- Going to ride that one,
- are we?
- 341
- 00:26:02,317 --> 00:26:04,019
- She does make my blood hot.
- 342
- 00:26:05,287 --> 00:26:07,023
- She's Lady Marlborough's
- new one.
- 343
- 00:26:07,757 --> 00:26:08,458
- Indeed.
- 344
- 00:26:09,191 --> 00:26:10,093
- Interesting.
- 345
- 00:26:24,973 --> 00:26:26,475
- Excuse me. Move. Excuse me.
- 346
- 00:26:27,108 --> 00:26:29,778
- Your Majesty. How lovely to see you.
- 347
- 00:26:30,246 --> 00:26:32,112
- It seems you have allocated
- even more money
- 348
- 00:26:32,114 --> 00:26:34,113
- into the abyss that is
- this fool's errand.
- 349
- 00:26:34,115 --> 00:26:37,918
- Oh, uh, yes. We will win.
- Sarah's sure we will win.
- 350
- 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,520
- It's the landholders' tax. You
- have no idea the firestorm of rage
- 351
- 00:26:40,522 --> 00:26:42,055
- you have set loose
- in the countryside.
- 352
- 00:26:42,057 --> 00:26:44,391
- - Really? Are they angry?
- - Dearest queen.
- 353
- 00:26:44,393 --> 00:26:46,093
- How do you like my stockings?
- 354
- 00:26:46,095 --> 00:26:47,197
- Festive.
- 355
- 00:26:47,563 --> 00:26:49,462
- Very. I was just
- explaining to the queen
- 356
- 00:26:49,464 --> 00:26:51,364
- the mistake this tax is.
- The war as well.
- 357
- 00:26:51,366 --> 00:26:52,565
- We should sue for peace.
- 358
- 00:26:52,567 --> 00:26:54,334
- Oh, Harley,
- you are such a bore.
- 359
- 00:26:54,336 --> 00:26:55,936
- That is for parliament.
- 360
- 00:26:55,938 --> 00:26:57,437
- A ball is for dancing
- 361
- 00:26:57,439 --> 00:26:59,539
- and eating those horseradish
- and venison puffs.
- 362
- 00:26:59,541 --> 00:27:00,776
- Have you tried them?
- 363
- 00:27:02,044 --> 00:27:04,344
- I'm having trouble swallowing
- at the moment. Your Majesty...
- 364
- 00:27:04,346 --> 00:27:05,912
- I'd like
- to enjoy the music now.
- 365
- 00:27:05,914 --> 00:27:08,017
- Oh, yes. I love this music.
- I must dance.
- 366
- 00:28:48,917 --> 00:28:49,618
- Stop it!
- 367
- 00:28:50,251 --> 00:28:52,120
- Stop it! Stop!
- 368
- 00:28:57,026 --> 00:28:59,062
- - What has happened?
- - I would like to go back to my room now.
- 369
- 00:29:00,596 --> 00:29:02,332
- Stop. Mr. Harley.
- 370
- 00:29:04,333 --> 00:29:06,636
- I agree I went too far
- with the tax for the war.
- 371
- 00:29:07,169 --> 00:29:09,205
- - What?
- - It will stay as it was.
- 372
- 00:29:10,071 --> 00:29:11,473
- We are your servants,
- my queen.
- 373
- 00:29:27,423 --> 00:29:28,490
- Anne.
- 374
- 00:29:29,525 --> 00:29:30,560
- I'm sorry.
- 375
- 00:29:43,638 --> 00:29:44,940
- It's okay.
- 376
- 00:29:47,409 --> 00:29:49,045
- Shall we go fast?
- 377
- 00:31:08,757 --> 00:31:09,726
- Fuck me.
- 378
- 00:32:40,481 --> 00:32:41,483
- Abigail, isn't it?
- 379
- 00:32:41,849 --> 00:32:42,751
- Yes, sir.
- 380
- 00:32:44,553 --> 00:32:45,855
- Stolen a book, I see.
- 381
- 00:32:46,622 --> 00:32:48,688
- Why, one could be stripped
- and whipped for that.
- 382
- 00:32:48,690 --> 00:32:50,359
- My mistress lent it to me.
- 383
- 00:32:51,393 --> 00:32:52,592
- Shall we go ask her?
- 384
- 00:32:52,594 --> 00:32:53,629
- No.
- 385
- 00:32:54,429 --> 00:32:55,331
- No.
- 386
- 00:32:57,598 --> 00:32:59,335
- Come and take the night air
- with me.
- 387
- 00:33:04,272 --> 00:33:06,641
- So, you once were a lady,
- and now you are nothing.
- 388
- 00:33:07,542 --> 00:33:09,144
- A bit of scullery scraps.
- 389
- 00:33:09,443 --> 00:33:10,480
- How very sad.
- 390
- 00:33:11,413 --> 00:33:13,513
- Well, I'm still the lady
- I was, in my heart.
- 391
- 00:33:13,515 --> 00:33:17,386
- No doubt. It is important to
- make new friends, is it not?
- 392
- 00:33:17,786 --> 00:33:18,821
- Yes.
- 393
- 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,953
- If that's what's
- actually happening here,
- 394
- 00:33:20,955 --> 00:33:23,492
- and not veiled threats
- under the guise of civility.
- 395
- 00:33:23,791 --> 00:33:25,859
- Am I to understand
- you are smart?
- 396
- 00:33:25,861 --> 00:33:27,130
- You want something.
- 397
- 00:33:27,596 --> 00:33:28,631
- To fuck me?
- 398
- 00:33:29,397 --> 00:33:30,697
- I will leave that
- to my friend Masham,
- 399
- 00:33:30,699 --> 00:33:32,364
- who is completely
- cunt-struck by you.
- 400
- 00:33:32,366 --> 00:33:33,869
- So, tell me about
- Lady Marlborough,
- 401
- 00:33:34,202 --> 00:33:35,471
- Godolphin, the queen.
- 402
- 00:33:36,305 --> 00:33:37,340
- Anything going on?
- 403
- 00:33:37,972 --> 00:33:39,174
- I love gossip.
- 404
- 00:33:39,540 --> 00:33:40,675
- It's a failing, I know.
- 405
- 00:33:41,777 --> 00:33:43,712
- Lady
- Marlborough has been good to me.
- 406
- 00:33:44,413 --> 00:33:45,448
- She saved me.
- 407
- 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:47,849
- I will not breach
- her confidence.
- 408
- 00:33:48,282 --> 00:33:50,616
- Of course.
- You are in favor.
- 409
- 00:33:50,618 --> 00:33:53,319
- But favor is a breeze that
- shifts direction all the time.
- 410
- 00:33:53,321 --> 00:33:56,288
- Then in an instant, you're back
- sleeping with a bunch of scabrous whores
- 411
- 00:33:56,290 --> 00:33:57,826
- wondering whose finger's
- in your ass.
- 412
- 00:33:58,594 --> 00:34:00,529
- You cannot have
- too many friends in court.
- 413
- 00:34:00,895 --> 00:34:02,464
- I need a friend, Abigail.
- 414
- 00:34:02,830 --> 00:34:05,400
- One with cute ears
- and wide eyes.
- 415
- 00:34:05,834 --> 00:34:08,834
- I'm often blindsided by the
- distorted situation at court.
- 416
- 00:34:08,836 --> 00:34:11,606
- As leader of the opposition,
- I should not be.
- 417
- 00:34:12,373 --> 00:34:14,541
- I would merely like
- to know of any plans
- 418
- 00:34:14,543 --> 00:34:17,844
- Her Ladyship, Godolphin,
- or the queen may have.
- 419
- 00:34:17,846 --> 00:34:20,349
- I will not betray
- my mistress's trust.
- 420
- 00:34:22,918 --> 00:34:25,820
- Oh, look. A wren. How cute.
- 421
- 00:34:32,693 --> 00:34:33,695
- You all right?
- 422
- 00:34:39,601 --> 00:34:40,635
- Anyway, think on it.
- 423
- 00:34:41,570 --> 00:34:42,572
- There's no pressure.
- 424
- 00:34:48,010 --> 00:34:50,846
- You will have to tell Harley
- you've changed your mind about the tax.
- 425
- 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,849
- Are the people really
- angry about the land tax?
- 426
- 00:34:54,349 --> 00:34:56,516
- They'll be angrier when the
- French are sodomizing their wives
- 427
- 00:34:56,518 --> 00:34:57,987
- and planting their fields
- with garlic.
- 428
- 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,420
- The Tories must not be
- rode roughshod over, though.
- 429
- 00:35:00,422 --> 00:35:01,954
- And more dead if we do it.
- 430
- 00:35:01,956 --> 00:35:03,923
- It is painful to lose men,
- 431
- 00:35:03,925 --> 00:35:05,624
- but we cannot
- be halfhearted in this
- 432
- 00:35:05,626 --> 00:35:07,394
- or they will see our weakness
- and take us
- 433
- 00:35:07,396 --> 00:35:08,664
- and we will lose
- thousands more.
- 434
- 00:35:10,532 --> 00:35:11,534
- None for the queen.
- 435
- 00:35:11,900 --> 00:35:12,999
- What?
- 436
- 00:35:13,001 --> 00:35:14,867
- You cannot have hot chocolate.
- 437
- 00:35:14,869 --> 00:35:16,836
- Your stomach,
- the sugar inflames it.
- 438
- 00:35:16,838 --> 00:35:18,771
- - Abigail, hand me that cup.
- - Do not.
- 439
- 00:35:18,773 --> 00:35:20,775
- I'm sorry,
- I do not know what to do.
- 440
- 00:35:21,409 --> 00:35:22,777
- Fine, give it to her.
- 441
- 00:35:23,344 --> 00:35:25,413
- Then you can get a bucket
- and a mop for the aftermath.
- 442
- 00:35:43,597 --> 00:35:44,567
- Take me back.
- 443
- 00:36:02,684 --> 00:36:05,755
- You will pronounce the tax in parliament.
- I will set the date.
- 444
- 00:36:27,376 --> 00:36:28,744
- I must tell you something.
- 445
- 00:36:29,677 --> 00:36:30,578
- Go on.
- 446
- 00:36:32,981 --> 00:36:34,617
- Mr. Harley came to me
- 447
- 00:36:34,949 --> 00:36:36,782
- and asked me
- to betray your confidence
- 448
- 00:36:36,784 --> 00:36:39,387
- about what goes on between you
- and the queen and Godolphin.
- 449
- 00:36:40,889 --> 00:36:41,791
- I see.
- 450
- 00:36:42,923 --> 00:36:44,826
- And what will you do?
- 451
- 00:36:46,027 --> 00:36:48,628
- I'm not going to,
- obviously.
- 452
- 00:36:48,630 --> 00:36:50,633
- Not obviously.
- 453
- 00:36:51,532 --> 00:36:54,603
- You may tell me of his
- approach to encourage my trust
- 454
- 00:36:55,103 --> 00:36:57,405
- and still work
- both sides of the street.
- 455
- 00:36:59,407 --> 00:37:02,110
- I am a person of honor,
- even if my station is not.
- 456
- 00:37:02,911 --> 00:37:05,077
- Even if I were the last one
- left in this wretched place,
- 457
- 00:37:05,079 --> 00:37:06,545
- I would remain a lady.
- 458
- 00:37:07,849 --> 00:37:09,485
- You're pretty
- when outraged.
- 459
- 00:37:10,885 --> 00:37:12,885
- So my secrets
- are safe with you?
- 460
- 00:37:12,887 --> 00:37:13,788
- All of them.
- 461
- 00:37:15,556 --> 00:37:16,458
- Good.
- 462
- 00:37:18,793 --> 00:37:20,128
- Even your biggest secret.
- 463
- 00:37:24,965 --> 00:37:25,867
- Abigail.
- 464
- 00:37:29,603 --> 00:37:31,604
- If you forget
- to load the pellet,
- 465
- 00:37:31,606 --> 00:37:34,009
- the gun fires, makes the
- sound, but releases no shot.
- 466
- 00:37:35,043 --> 00:37:36,811
- It is a great jape.
- Do you agree?
- 467
- 00:37:37,646 --> 00:37:38,547
- Yes.
- 468
- 00:37:39,547 --> 00:37:42,384
- Maybe we will think of
- a use for it one day.
- 469
- 00:37:42,684 --> 00:37:45,921
- Sometimes, it is hard to remember whether
- you have loaded the pellet or not.
- 470
- 00:37:46,121 --> 00:37:49,657
- I do fear
- confusion and accidents.
- 471
- 00:37:50,025 --> 00:37:51,727
- I'm sure people
- will be careful.
- 472
- 00:39:10,804 --> 00:39:13,241
- Beef, 12 guineas.
- 473
- 00:39:13,807 --> 00:39:14,876
- Cream.
- 474
- 00:39:15,143 --> 00:39:16,876
- Mrs. Meg, your cream bill
- is outrageous.
- 475
- 00:39:16,878 --> 00:39:18,711
- Are you bathing in it
- to help your hemorrhoids?
- 476
- 00:39:18,713 --> 00:39:20,313
- No, Your Ladyship.
- 477
- 00:39:20,315 --> 00:39:21,780
- May I examine?
- 478
- 00:39:21,782 --> 00:39:22,684
- Of course.
- 479
- 00:39:24,818 --> 00:39:26,989
- It's perfect,
- Lady Marlborough, as always.
- 480
- 00:39:28,222 --> 00:39:32,124
- The queen.
- It is rather urgent.
- 481
- 00:39:32,893 --> 00:39:33,995
- Shall we sign off?
- 482
- 00:39:34,728 --> 00:39:35,630
- Of course.
- 483
- 00:40:01,356 --> 00:40:02,921
- Aim for the flagstones.
- 484
- 00:40:02,923 --> 00:40:04,293
- The lawn
- might break your fall.
- 485
- 00:40:04,826 --> 00:40:06,159
- You do not care.
- 486
- 00:40:06,161 --> 00:40:07,730
- Mrs. Morley.
- 487
- 00:40:08,195 --> 00:40:09,597
- - Please!
- - No!
- 488
- 00:40:16,070 --> 00:40:17,206
- Stay a while.
- 489
- 00:40:17,838 --> 00:40:19,871
- No! Take the day off.
- I command it.
- 490
- 00:40:19,873 --> 00:40:21,209
- Someone must run things.
- 491
- 00:40:21,909 --> 00:40:23,275
- I am not food.
- 492
- 00:40:23,277 --> 00:40:24,844
- You cannot just eat and eat.
- 493
- 00:40:24,846 --> 00:40:26,981
- Yet you are tasty and salty.
- 494
- 00:40:28,617 --> 00:40:31,554
- If I grilled you,
- you'd make a delightful meal.
- 495
- 00:40:32,052 --> 00:40:33,087
- Very well.
- 496
- 00:40:34,021 --> 00:40:35,188
- I will come and
- see you this afternoon,
- 497
- 00:40:35,190 --> 00:40:36,592
- and we can play whist.
- 498
- 00:40:47,402 --> 00:40:51,237
- The opposition asks us
- 499
- 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,809
- to be halfhearted in this war!
- 500
- 00:40:54,675 --> 00:40:56,811
- - We will not!
- - Hear, hear!
- 501
- 00:40:59,981 --> 00:41:02,017
- We must wear our griefs,
- 502
- 00:41:02,250 --> 00:41:05,086
- for England is worth our all,
- 503
- 00:41:05,686 --> 00:41:07,822
- and suffer we must for her!
- 504
- 00:41:08,422 --> 00:41:09,791
- Mr. Harley,
- 505
- 00:41:10,057 --> 00:41:11,994
- control your rabble!
- 506
- 00:41:13,260 --> 00:41:16,795
- I am, therefore,
- announcing today
- 507
- 00:41:16,797 --> 00:41:18,733
- that, at Her Majesty's...
- 508
- 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,270
- About time, Mrs. Freeman.
- This fucking leg.
- 509
- 00:41:22,971 --> 00:41:26,338
- It's like a monster attacking me.
- Cut it off for me, will you?
- 510
- 00:41:26,340 --> 00:41:28,009
- I don't think
- so, Your Majesty.
- 511
- 00:41:30,844 --> 00:41:31,813
- Why are you here?
- 512
- 00:41:34,181 --> 00:41:36,916
- Lady Marlborough sent me, as
- I am an excellent whist player
- 513
- 00:41:36,918 --> 00:41:39,751
- and she has been unavoidably
- detained with business of state,
- 514
- 00:41:39,753 --> 00:41:40,987
- but will be here posthaste.
- 515
- 00:41:40,989 --> 00:41:42,057
- It's my state.
- 516
- 00:41:42,990 --> 00:41:44,222
- I am the business of state.
- 517
- 00:41:44,224 --> 00:41:45,627
- Did she actually
- send me her maid?
- 518
- 00:41:46,226 --> 00:41:48,094
- Your Majesty,
- I wasn't always a maid.
- 519
- 00:41:48,096 --> 00:41:50,132
- I'm educated,
- I speak Latin, French.
- 520
- 00:41:50,764 --> 00:41:52,201
- My family fell on hard times.
- 521
- 00:41:52,434 --> 00:41:54,236
- - I'm also her cousin.
- - It's all very fascinating.
- 522
- 00:41:54,802 --> 00:41:56,871
- You shall leave, regardless,
- and tell her to come.
- 523
- 00:41:59,173 --> 00:42:00,141
- They're gorgeous.
- 524
- 00:42:02,210 --> 00:42:04,179
- They're my babies.
- Let them out, please.
- 525
- 00:42:09,349 --> 00:42:10,652
- How many are there?
- 526
- 00:42:10,985 --> 00:42:12,121
- Seventeen.
- 527
- 00:42:13,420 --> 00:42:14,956
- It's Hildebrand's
- day today.
- 528
- 00:42:17,092 --> 00:42:18,126
- Which one is he?
- 529
- 00:42:18,927 --> 00:42:21,262
- That one there.
- Shy, but stubborn.
- 530
- 00:42:22,864 --> 00:42:23,766
- May I?
- 531
- 00:42:29,737 --> 00:42:30,772
- He likes you.
- 532
- 00:42:33,875 --> 00:42:35,911
- I lost some 17 children.
- 533
- 00:42:41,215 --> 00:42:42,684
- Some were born as blood,
- 534
- 00:42:43,251 --> 00:42:44,353
- some without breath...
- 535
- 00:42:45,887 --> 00:42:47,923
- and some were with me
- for a very brief time.
- 536
- 00:42:53,128 --> 00:42:54,363
- Oh, my dear.
- 537
- 00:42:58,333 --> 00:42:59,867
- Today is Hildebrand's day.
- 538
- 00:43:00,969 --> 00:43:02,037
- The day you lost him.
- 539
- 00:43:03,438 --> 00:43:04,306
- Yes.
- 540
- 00:43:05,572 --> 00:43:07,842
- Each one that dies, a little
- bit of you goes with them.
- 541
- 00:43:12,347 --> 00:43:13,482
- Would you like to join me?
- 542
- 00:43:18,018 --> 00:43:19,253
- Oh. Lovely cake.
- 543
- 00:43:20,554 --> 00:43:21,456
- Yum.
- 544
- 00:43:22,356 --> 00:43:23,391
- You like it?
- 545
- 00:43:25,559 --> 00:43:28,059
- - Delish.
- - You do like it.
- 546
- 00:43:28,061 --> 00:43:29,230
- Hello, Sussy.
- 547
- 00:43:30,097 --> 00:43:32,000
- Happy birthday.
- 548
- 00:43:32,567 --> 00:43:34,367
- Come on.
- There's some for you, too.
- 549
- 00:43:34,369 --> 00:43:35,471
- Don't eat Mummy's foot.
- 550
- 00:43:44,945 --> 00:43:46,081
- What an outfit.
- 551
- 00:43:47,315 --> 00:43:48,349
- Thank you.
- 552
- 00:43:49,851 --> 00:43:51,286
- I thought it might
- be too much.
- 553
- 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,956
- Have you come
- to seduce me or rape me?
- 554
- 00:43:55,123 --> 00:43:56,291
- I am a gentleman.
- 555
- 00:43:56,990 --> 00:43:58,025
- So rape, then.
- 556
- 00:43:58,893 --> 00:43:59,891
- No.
- 557
- 00:43:59,893 --> 00:44:02,029
- No, you are...
- 558
- 00:44:03,063 --> 00:44:05,366
- You have intrigued me.
- 559
- 00:44:07,568 --> 00:44:08,804
- And you, me.
- 560
- 00:44:10,304 --> 00:44:12,907
- I'm intrigued by what you
- look like under all this.
- 561
- 00:44:31,125 --> 00:44:32,161
- You're handsome.
- 562
- 00:44:33,293 --> 00:44:34,896
- No wonder
- you cover it up.
- 563
- 00:44:35,096 --> 00:44:36,130
- Who are you?
- 564
- 00:44:36,496 --> 00:44:37,996
- No ordinary maid.
- 565
- 00:44:37,998 --> 00:44:39,901
- It could be said
- I have fallen far.
- 566
- 00:44:41,034 --> 00:44:43,938
- It could be said
- I aim to catch you.
- 567
- 00:44:47,976 --> 00:44:48,876
- Ow!
- 568
- 00:44:49,244 --> 00:44:50,278
- I might allow it.
- 569
- 00:44:51,646 --> 00:44:53,215
- Now good night, sir.
- 570
- 00:44:58,485 --> 00:44:59,387
- Progress?
- 571
- 00:45:00,288 --> 00:45:01,956
- Uh... She, uh...
- 572
- 00:45:02,990 --> 00:45:04,393
- - She bit me.
- - Oh.
- 573
- 00:45:05,626 --> 00:45:07,128
- This wig's ridiculous.
- 574
- 00:45:08,329 --> 00:45:09,565
- A man must look pretty.
- 575
- 00:45:10,264 --> 00:45:12,067
- I'm not entirely sure
- she approves.
- 576
- 00:45:13,166 --> 00:45:15,136
- Try again in your own way,
- old boy.
- 577
- 00:46:11,592 --> 00:46:14,092
- Apologies regarding
- sending Abigail in my stead.
- 578
- 00:46:14,094 --> 00:46:15,394
- She was perfectly darling.
- 579
- 00:46:15,396 --> 00:46:17,095
- Hildebrand really
- took to her.
- 580
- 00:46:17,097 --> 00:46:18,199
- Is that a rabbit?
- 581
- 00:46:20,501 --> 00:46:22,336
- Anne, you are too sensitive.
- 582
- 00:46:22,704 --> 00:46:25,271
- And you are too mean
- and uncaring, some days.
- 583
- 00:46:25,273 --> 00:46:28,443
- Some days, I'm quite lovely,
- though. Let's think on them.
- 584
- 00:46:29,710 --> 00:46:30,611
- Anne.
- 585
- 00:46:32,112 --> 00:46:33,414
- You're such a child.
- 586
- 00:46:49,664 --> 00:46:52,034
- <i>I guess all the
- rapes were the hardest.</i>
- 587
- 00:46:53,568 --> 00:46:55,137
- Made me feel at their mercy.
- 588
- 00:46:56,237 --> 00:46:57,271
- That I was nothing.
- 589
- 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,139
- You are not nothing.
- You're a dear person.
- 590
- 00:47:01,141 --> 00:47:02,176
- Thank you.
- 591
- 00:47:04,244 --> 00:47:05,380
- You're so beautiful.
- 592
- 00:47:06,213 --> 00:47:07,949
- Stop it. You mock me.
- 593
- 00:47:08,382 --> 00:47:09,417
- I do not.
- 594
- 00:47:10,284 --> 00:47:13,121
- If I were a man,
- I would ravish you.
- 595
- 00:47:14,021 --> 00:47:15,090
- - Ravish.
- - Enough.
- 596
- 00:47:15,523 --> 00:47:17,555
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- 597
- 00:47:19,327 --> 00:47:20,395
- Oh, look.
- 598
- 00:47:47,054 --> 00:47:48,056
- Make them stop.
- 599
- 00:47:48,623 --> 00:47:49,722
- What?
- 600
- 00:47:49,724 --> 00:47:50,625
- Stop!
- 601
- 00:47:51,793 --> 00:47:52,791
- Enough!
- 602
- 00:47:52,793 --> 00:47:53,761
- Stop!
- 603
- 00:47:54,528 --> 00:47:55,728
- Be gone!
- 604
- 00:47:55,730 --> 00:47:57,465
- I command it!
- 605
- 00:47:58,231 --> 00:47:59,333
- Leave!
- 606
- 00:48:00,568 --> 00:48:02,504
- I don't want to hear it!
- 607
- 00:48:05,273 --> 00:48:07,139
- - Your Majesty?
- - Now I must rest.
- 608
- 00:48:07,141 --> 00:48:08,407
- - Shall I...
- - Leave me be!
- 609
- 00:48:41,576 --> 00:48:42,610
- Give me that.
- 610
- 00:48:44,144 --> 00:48:45,276
- Give me that.
- 611
- 00:48:49,250 --> 00:48:51,186
- Thank you, Your Majesty.
- 612
- 00:49:02,230 --> 00:49:03,365
- Where am I?
- 613
- 00:49:05,465 --> 00:49:06,801
- Where am I?
- 614
- 00:49:07,135 --> 00:49:09,838
- Your Majesty,
- you are in the west hallway.
- 615
- 00:49:10,605 --> 00:49:12,307
- Don't speak to me like that!
- 616
- 00:49:14,742 --> 00:49:15,811
- Your Majesty.
- 617
- 00:49:17,045 --> 00:49:19,481
- - Stupid girl! Where have you been?
- - I'm sorry.
- 618
- 00:49:23,416 --> 00:49:24,452
- Take me back.
- 619
- 00:50:05,393 --> 00:50:06,595
- Perhaps we should dance.
- 620
- 00:50:09,197 --> 00:50:10,429
- You mock me.
- 621
- 00:50:10,431 --> 00:50:11,733
- No. I just
- believe you can.
- 622
- 00:50:12,532 --> 00:50:13,634
- That it would be cheery.
- 623
- 00:50:14,802 --> 00:50:16,570
- I would dearly like
- to dance with you.
- 624
- 00:50:25,313 --> 00:50:26,213
- Back.
- 625
- 00:50:28,916 --> 00:50:30,585
- Together. And click.
- 626
- 00:50:34,355 --> 00:50:36,354
- <i>Throw.</i>
- 627
- 00:50:36,356 --> 00:50:38,927
- Back, front, back.
- 628
- 00:50:40,994 --> 00:50:41,896
- <i>Throw.</i>
- 629
- 00:50:44,199 --> 00:50:46,465
- Off with her head
- and off with her head.
- 630
- 00:50:50,771 --> 00:50:51,740
- <i>Throw.</i>
- 631
- 00:50:51,972 --> 00:50:53,505
- Spin, spin, spin, spin.
- 632
- 00:51:08,922 --> 00:51:09,957
- It's 12-11.
- 633
- 00:51:10,891 --> 00:51:13,025
- You're shooting
- exceptionally well, Abigail.
- 634
- 00:51:13,027 --> 00:51:14,396
- You've taught me well.
- 635
- 00:51:15,764 --> 00:51:18,998
- I hope you haven't found your
- time with the queen too tedious.
- 636
- 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,204
- Oh, not at all. And if it
- gives you rest, I'm happy.
- 637
- 00:51:23,003 --> 00:51:25,436
- - Did you sleep well?
- - Like a shot badger.
- 638
- 00:51:25,438 --> 00:51:26,340
- Excellent.
- 639
- 00:51:27,007 --> 00:51:28,242
- The queen is...
- 640
- 00:51:30,378 --> 00:51:31,680
- an extraordinary person...
- 641
- 00:51:32,713 --> 00:51:34,516
- even if it's not
- readily apparent.
- 642
- 00:51:35,416 --> 00:51:37,016
- She's been stalked by tragedy.
- 643
- 00:51:37,018 --> 00:51:38,485
- She seems quite lovely.
- 644
- 00:51:39,420 --> 00:51:40,755
- I will not burden you again.
- 645
- 00:51:42,056 --> 00:51:43,824
- - I'm quite happy to...
- - I know you are.
- 646
- 00:51:44,625 --> 00:51:46,760
- She will be angry
- if I do not appear soon.
- 647
- 00:51:48,061 --> 00:51:49,330
- Take your shot.
- 648
- 00:51:58,806 --> 00:51:59,740
- Throw.
- 649
- 00:52:04,778 --> 00:52:05,679
- Thirteen.
- 650
- 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:14,355
- The queen?
- 651
- 00:52:14,755 --> 00:52:15,890
- I will be there directly.
- 652
- 00:52:20,994 --> 00:52:23,597
- The queen... asked for her.
- 653
- 00:52:30,737 --> 00:52:33,639
- I have sent for some lobsters. I thought
- we could race them and then eat them.
- 654
- 00:52:33,641 --> 00:52:35,409
- - Oh, hello.
- - Oh, hello.
- 655
- 00:52:35,809 --> 00:52:37,012
- I hope you have three.
- 656
- 00:52:38,278 --> 00:52:40,047
- You sent for Abigail to try
- and make me jealous, I think.
- 657
- 00:52:40,380 --> 00:52:41,282
- Perhaps.
- 658
- 00:52:43,784 --> 00:52:45,353
- They'll be in
- with the lobsters.
- 659
- 00:52:45,652 --> 00:52:46,651
- You scared?
- 660
- 00:52:48,021 --> 00:52:50,025
- Oh, I think a moat is
- a bad idea.
- 661
- 00:52:50,358 --> 00:52:51,793
- It's just...
- It's too old-fashioned.
- 662
- 00:52:53,027 --> 00:52:55,461
- Your lobsters, ma'am.
- Where should I put them?
- 663
- 00:52:55,463 --> 00:52:57,065
- Uh... here.
- 664
- 00:53:11,010 --> 00:53:13,414
- Hello. Remember me?
- 665
- 00:53:14,114 --> 00:53:15,582
- Mr. Harley.
- 666
- 00:53:15,949 --> 00:53:17,618
- You always unbalance me.
- 667
- 00:53:18,085 --> 00:53:19,454
- So what's been happening?
- 668
- 00:53:20,922 --> 00:53:23,956
- The queen and Lady Marlborough are
- to race lobsters and then eat them.
- 669
- 00:53:23,958 --> 00:53:25,460
- Do you want to get punched?
- 670
- 00:53:26,494 --> 00:53:27,925
- The queen's going
- to announce the doubling
- 671
- 00:53:27,927 --> 00:53:29,561
- of the landholders' tax
- to parliament.
- 672
- 00:53:29,563 --> 00:53:30,929
- Do you jest?
- 673
- 00:53:30,931 --> 00:53:32,798
- I don't think
- she's certain of it, though.
- 674
- 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:34,932
- But Lady Marlborough
- is providing that certainty.
- 675
- 00:53:34,934 --> 00:53:35,836
- Yes.
- 676
- 00:53:36,670 --> 00:53:37,572
- And?
- 677
- 00:53:38,038 --> 00:53:39,074
- That is all.
- 678
- 00:53:40,574 --> 00:53:42,110
- Why do I feel
- that is not all?
- 679
- 00:53:44,545 --> 00:53:46,380
- I'm trying my best.
- 680
- 00:53:47,414 --> 00:53:48,115
- I am.
- 681
- 00:53:49,516 --> 00:53:52,820
- All right, turn off the tears. Thank you.
- Have a pleasant evening.
- 682
- 00:54:02,028 --> 00:54:04,766
- May I speak a moment,
- with Her Majesty's pleasure?
- 683
- 00:54:07,867 --> 00:54:11,804
- May I exhort the chamber to roar
- a mighty hurrah for Her Majesty
- 684
- 00:54:11,806 --> 00:54:14,742
- in her brilliant decision
- to not raise the land tax.
- 685
- 00:54:15,141 --> 00:54:17,144
- - Hurrah!
- - For the doubling
- 686
- 00:54:17,478 --> 00:54:18,976
- of the tax would have been
- a disaster,
- 687
- 00:54:18,978 --> 00:54:20,845
- and the fields
- would have run with blood
- 688
- 00:54:20,847 --> 00:54:23,682
- as the countryside rose up
- against our city friends,
- 689
- 00:54:23,684 --> 00:54:27,856
- to add to the piling dead of our sons
- already on the field of this war.
- 690
- 00:54:28,456 --> 00:54:30,925
- Again, to our queen,
- for her deep wisdom
- 691
- 00:54:31,192 --> 00:54:34,128
- in knowing where to draw the line
- in holding our country together.
- 692
- 00:54:34,628 --> 00:54:37,162
- For there is no point
- winning a war abroad
- 693
- 00:54:37,164 --> 00:54:38,831
- if we are
- to start one at home.
- 694
- 00:54:38,833 --> 00:54:40,766
- - Hear, hear!
- - Hurrah!
- 695
- 00:54:40,768 --> 00:54:42,737
- I apologize for the
- interruption, Your Majesty.
- 696
- 00:54:43,036 --> 00:54:44,605
- The floor is yours, of course.
- 697
- 00:54:45,005 --> 00:54:47,108
- We look forward to hearing
- what you have to say.
- 698
- 00:55:34,054 --> 00:55:35,954
- Men should not
- sneak up on women.
- 699
- 00:55:35,956 --> 00:55:37,222
- You look scared.
- 700
- 00:55:37,224 --> 00:55:38,460
- I'm hurt.
- 701
- 00:55:57,610 --> 00:55:58,913
- Wait, wait!
- 702
- 00:56:00,146 --> 00:56:01,516
- Kiss me properly first.
- 703
- 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:15,961
- I have just now decided
- to marry you, Masham.
- 704
- 00:56:15,963 --> 00:56:17,862
- I cannot marry a servant.
- 705
- 00:56:17,864 --> 00:56:19,032
- I can enjoy one, though.
- 706
- 00:56:24,103 --> 00:56:26,003
- I know it would ruin you
- to marry me.
- 707
- 00:56:26,005 --> 00:56:27,208
- I will fix things for us.
- 708
- 00:56:37,016 --> 00:56:38,752
- Don't you think
- we are a good match?
- 709
- 00:56:39,219 --> 00:56:40,755
- I think a very good match.
- 710
- 00:57:36,777 --> 00:57:37,878
- I looked like a fool.
- 711
- 00:57:38,378 --> 00:57:39,911
- They were all staring,
- weren't they?
- 712
- 00:57:39,913 --> 00:57:41,345
- I can tell even if
- I can't see,
- 713
- 00:57:41,347 --> 00:57:42,947
- and I heard
- the word "fat." Fat.
- 714
- 00:57:42,949 --> 00:57:44,085
- - And ugly.
- - Anne.
- 715
- 00:57:44,717 --> 00:57:46,320
- No one but me would dare,
- and I did not.
- 716
- 00:57:47,221 --> 00:57:49,987
- I felt for you. He set you up.
- It is our fault.
- 717
- 00:57:49,989 --> 00:57:52,391
- I didn't know what else to do.
- I couldn't go through with it.
- 718
- 00:57:52,393 --> 00:57:54,695
- It's fine, Anne. It's fine.
- 719
- 00:58:01,969 --> 00:58:03,137
- He was ready for us.
- 720
- 00:58:03,436 --> 00:58:05,103
- He probably just assumed
- 721
- 00:58:05,105 --> 00:58:06,673
- that you've been
- working on her.
- 722
- 00:58:06,974 --> 00:58:07,942
- A minor hitch.
- 723
- 00:58:08,409 --> 00:58:09,777
- We will reset the date.
- 724
- 00:58:23,190 --> 00:58:24,192
- What are you doing?
- 725
- 00:58:26,427 --> 00:58:27,729
- Oh, Your Majesty.
- 726
- 00:58:29,762 --> 00:58:32,232
- Lady Marlborough asked me
- to wait for you, and I was...
- 727
- 00:58:33,733 --> 00:58:36,069
- The bed looked so beautiful,
- and I was overcome...
- 728
- 00:58:37,070 --> 00:58:38,706
- with foolishness. I'm sorry.
- 729
- 00:58:42,208 --> 00:58:43,677
- Well, you may get out now.
- 730
- 00:58:58,257 --> 00:59:00,260
- Apologies again, Your Majesty.
- 731
- 00:59:00,927 --> 00:59:02,096
- What happened to your dress?
- 732
- 00:59:04,197 --> 00:59:05,232
- Wolves.
- 733
- 00:59:31,791 --> 00:59:32,826
- Her legs.
- 734
- 00:59:47,074 --> 00:59:48,108
- Rub my legs.
- 735
- 01:00:12,498 --> 01:00:13,967
- Does it hurt a lot?
- 736
- 01:00:15,335 --> 01:00:16,369
- They're agony.
- 737
- 01:00:55,108 --> 01:00:56,510
- Oh, the pain.
- 738
- 01:01:01,347 --> 01:01:02,947
- Marlborough has written.
- 739
- 01:01:02,949 --> 01:01:03,984
- He's in position.
- 740
- 01:01:04,851 --> 01:01:06,386
- The battle will begin
- any time.
- 741
- 01:01:10,224 --> 01:01:12,023
- He will prevail.
- 742
- 01:01:12,025 --> 01:01:13,126
- Of course.
- 743
- 01:01:13,893 --> 01:01:15,459
- I imagine you will not
- sleep tonight.
- 744
- 01:01:15,461 --> 01:01:17,095
- I can stay
- and sit with you.
- 745
- 01:01:17,097 --> 01:01:18,266
- I'm all right.
- 746
- 01:03:03,402 --> 01:03:04,938
- Good morning,
- Lady Marlborough.
- 747
- 01:03:06,306 --> 01:03:08,305
- Did you see that book of
- poetry from the Dryden fellow?
- 748
- 01:03:08,307 --> 01:03:10,175
- I... have not.
- 749
- 01:03:10,177 --> 01:03:11,045
- No.
- 750
- 01:03:11,445 --> 01:03:12,346
- No.
- 751
- 01:03:13,179 --> 01:03:14,147
- No.
- 752
- 01:03:15,282 --> 01:03:16,182
- No.
- 753
- 01:03:17,016 --> 01:03:17,984
- No.
- 754
- 01:03:19,485 --> 01:03:20,517
- I don't understand.
- 755
- 01:03:20,519 --> 01:03:22,653
- Did you take it? My book.
- 756
- 01:03:22,655 --> 01:03:25,255
- - No.
- - I think you are a pretty little liar
- 757
- 01:03:25,257 --> 01:03:26,460
- that I have misjudged.
- 758
- 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:29,096
- I did not mean
- for this to happen.
- 759
- 01:03:30,063 --> 01:03:31,463
- The queen, she's forceful.
- 760
- 01:03:31,465 --> 01:03:33,233
- You are dismissed
- from my service.
- 761
- 01:03:34,768 --> 01:03:36,269
- Go back to Mrs. Meg and tell her to
- find you a position in the scullery.
- 762
- 01:03:37,737 --> 01:03:39,373
- And if she asks why, tell her "Because
- I am a disloyal little bitch."
- 763
- 01:03:39,606 --> 01:03:41,142
- Yes, Your Ladyship.
- 764
- 01:03:41,742 --> 01:03:43,340
- It has been an honor
- and privilege...
- 765
- 01:03:43,342 --> 01:03:44,210
- If you do not go,
- 766
- 01:03:44,744 --> 01:03:47,248
- I will start kicking you
- and I will not stop.
- 767
- 01:05:11,630 --> 01:05:14,398
- - You have become close to Abigail.
- - She's been a dear. Yes.
- 768
- 01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:17,367
- It is such a shame, but I've
- had to dismiss her for theft.
- 769
- 01:05:17,369 --> 01:05:19,072
- She's a liar and a thief.
- 770
- 01:05:26,512 --> 01:05:28,780
- Your tongue seems
- uncharacteristically still.
- 771
- 01:05:28,782 --> 01:05:29,682
- I heard you.
- 772
- 01:05:30,516 --> 01:05:31,818
- She's my servant.
- She's not dismissed.
- 773
- 01:05:32,152 --> 01:05:33,550
- I've made her my maid
- of the bedchamber.
- 774
- 01:05:33,552 --> 01:05:35,253
- Did you not hear what I said?
- 775
- 01:05:35,255 --> 01:05:36,791
- Yes, you regard her
- as a liar and a thief.
- 776
- 01:05:37,123 --> 01:05:39,292
- - Yes.
- - I do not, obviously.
- 777
- 01:05:41,728 --> 01:05:43,293
- You will dismiss her.
- 778
- 01:05:43,295 --> 01:05:44,431
- I don't want to.
- 779
- 01:05:45,465 --> 01:05:47,367
- I like it when she puts
- her tongue inside me.
- 780
- 01:06:41,554 --> 01:06:43,688
- It feels so strange
- to be in this.
- 781
- 01:06:43,690 --> 01:06:47,161
- It's good for you. The doctor
- says it'll leach the toxins.
- 782
- 01:06:47,893 --> 01:06:50,163
- What if I should fall asleep
- and slip under?
- 783
- 01:06:50,764 --> 01:06:52,399
- Just imagine
- it's hot chocolate.
- 784
- 01:06:52,898 --> 01:06:54,801
- Oh, then I shall die happy.
- 785
- 01:07:04,577 --> 01:07:07,413
- After you left, I thought,
- "What a grand idea to take to the mud."
- 786
- 01:07:07,914 --> 01:07:10,784
- To get whatever poisons
- one carries with one out.
- 787
- 01:07:16,556 --> 01:07:18,492
- Abigail, could you
- fetch me some refreshment?
- 788
- 01:07:19,592 --> 01:07:21,261
- I would like to,
- of course, but...
- 789
- 01:07:21,661 --> 01:07:23,864
- I must be at the queen's side
- and behest at all times.
- 790
- 01:07:24,496 --> 01:07:25,598
- It is my role.
- 791
- 01:07:26,432 --> 01:07:27,668
- Such loyalty.
- 792
- 01:07:27,967 --> 01:07:29,733
- How delightful it is when
- one tries to cultivate
- 793
- 01:07:29,735 --> 01:07:31,571
- a new trait
- in one's character.
- 794
- 01:07:31,771 --> 01:07:33,541
- Do not scratch at her.
- 795
- 01:07:41,380 --> 01:07:42,815
- Mr. Freeman.
- 796
- 01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:48,556
- Mr. Morley.
- 797
- 01:07:48,989 --> 01:07:51,824
- Oh, how handsome you are.
- 798
- 01:07:52,726 --> 01:07:54,961
- How handsome you are,
- Mr. Freeman.
- 799
- 01:07:55,561 --> 01:07:58,463
- Oh... But I...
- 800
- 01:07:58,465 --> 01:08:00,331
- I forgot my glasses.
- 801
- 01:08:13,813 --> 01:08:16,317
- You will be back
- in the street.
- 802
- 01:08:25,625 --> 01:08:27,058
- Do you remember
- when we were young,
- 803
- 01:08:27,060 --> 01:08:29,597
- and we were not allowed
- out in the snow,
- 804
- 01:08:30,063 --> 01:08:31,966
- and we opened all the windows
- in the ballroom
- 805
- 01:08:32,298 --> 01:08:34,665
- and sat there as the snow
- flurries just wafted in?
- 806
- 01:08:34,667 --> 01:08:36,467
- And when your governess
- came in,
- 807
- 01:08:36,469 --> 01:08:39,437
- we were making a snowman
- and our hands were blue.
- 808
- 01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:41,873
- - Oh, it was such fun.
- - Sounds marvelous.
- 809
- 01:08:41,875 --> 01:08:43,607
- So many things
- we have done together.
- 810
- 01:08:43,609 --> 01:08:45,278
- I do love ancient history.
- 811
- 01:08:46,578 --> 01:08:48,079
- Sorry, Abigail,
- did you say something?
- 812
- 01:08:48,081 --> 01:08:49,416
- Oh, I was singing.
- 813
- 01:08:49,783 --> 01:08:51,018
- I cannot get a tune
- out of my head.
- 814
- 01:08:51,484 --> 01:08:52,916
- Well, there is
- so much room for it.
- 815
- 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:56,888
- Lady Marlborough,
- you're such a wit.
- 816
- 01:08:56,890 --> 01:08:58,790
- Oh, Abigail, you are a dear.
- 817
- 01:08:58,792 --> 01:09:00,661
- I think I shall retire
- for the evening.
- 818
- 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:02,863
- Shall I prepare your bed,
- Queen Anne?
- 819
- 01:09:03,630 --> 01:09:06,998
- Or shall you and I adjourn to
- your apartments for some sherry?
- 820
- 01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:08,398
- Oh!
- 821
- 01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:10,468
- Sherry sounds just the ticket.
- 822
- 01:09:10,470 --> 01:09:13,641
- - Good night, Abigail.
- - Yes, good night, dear Abigail.
- 823
- 01:09:18,578 --> 01:09:21,845
- You are enjoying
- all of this, aren't you?
- 824
- 01:09:21,847 --> 01:09:23,714
- To be beloved? Of course.
- 825
- 01:09:23,716 --> 01:09:25,616
- To see you trying to win me.
- 826
- 01:09:25,618 --> 01:09:27,451
- Why, what is not
- to love, my dear?
- 827
- 01:09:27,453 --> 01:09:30,888
- You will stop this
- ridiculous infatuation.
- 828
- 01:09:30,890 --> 01:09:32,557
- You have made your point.
- 829
- 01:09:32,559 --> 01:09:34,662
- Perhaps I was not
- making a point.
- 830
- 01:09:49,141 --> 01:09:51,311
- Perhaps because of my past,
- 831
- 01:09:51,644 --> 01:09:53,847
- perhaps a malformation
- of my heart.
- 832
- 01:09:54,780 --> 01:09:57,417
- I blame my father,
- of course. Cunt.
- 833
- 01:09:58,752 --> 01:10:01,055
- I must take control
- of my circumstance.
- 834
- 01:10:02,055 --> 01:10:04,892
- I will need to act in a way that
- meets with the edges of my morality.
- 835
- 01:10:07,025 --> 01:10:10,096
- And when I end up on the street selling
- my asshole to syphilitic soldiers,
- 836
- 01:10:10,430 --> 01:10:13,801
- steadfast morality will be a fucking
- nonsense that will mock me daily.
- 837
- 01:10:14,501 --> 01:10:15,101
- I'm not quite following.
- 838
- 01:10:15,435 --> 01:10:16,337
- Shh.
- 839
- 01:10:17,936 --> 01:10:20,440
- I apologize. But do "shh"
- when I'm thinking.
- 840
- 01:10:23,643 --> 01:10:25,346
- Your hair is so lustrous.
- 841
- 01:10:26,412 --> 01:10:28,513
- It's something people
- in court comment on.
- 842
- 01:10:28,515 --> 01:10:29,783
- - Really?
- - Mm-hmm.
- 843
- 01:10:30,449 --> 01:10:32,517
- I always thought of it
- as rather nest-like.
- 844
- 01:10:32,519 --> 01:10:33,654
- Not at all.
- 845
- 01:10:34,953 --> 01:10:36,090
- Lady Marlborough.
- 846
- 01:10:36,422 --> 01:10:37,657
- I shall make you tea.
- 847
- 01:10:38,123 --> 01:10:39,891
- What a lovely idea.
- Thank you, Abigail.
- 848
- 01:10:39,893 --> 01:10:41,862
- - Of course.
- - Pat the kids hello.
- 849
- 01:10:42,429 --> 01:10:43,463
- Of course.
- 850
- 01:10:58,043 --> 01:11:00,881
- You will give that speech on the tax
- increase in parliament next week.
- 851
- 01:11:02,614 --> 01:11:05,215
- I dreamed of the man
- on the roadside with one eye.
- 852
- 01:11:05,217 --> 01:11:06,153
- What man?
- 853
- 01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:08,389
- We drove through town.
- 854
- 01:11:09,555 --> 01:11:10,990
- He looked at me in such a way,
- it made my blood chill.
- 855
- 01:11:12,324 --> 01:11:15,026
- - So kind.
- - Abigail, do you think the people are angry?
- 856
- 01:11:15,028 --> 01:11:17,195
- Anne, she does not know.
- 857
- 01:11:17,197 --> 01:11:20,865
- We should ask people. Get some people
- in from the villages and ask them.
- 858
- 01:11:20,867 --> 01:11:23,000
- That is not how matters
- of state are dealt with.
- 859
- 01:11:23,002 --> 01:11:24,805
- People are led.
- They do not lead.
- 860
- 01:11:25,505 --> 01:11:28,039
- Would you leave Marlborough exposed?
- He needs another battalion
- 861
- 01:11:28,041 --> 01:11:29,639
- ready to join him,
- and that means money.
- 862
- 01:11:29,641 --> 01:11:30,974
- Do not shout at me.
- I am the queen.
- 863
- 01:11:30,976 --> 01:11:32,645
- Then for once act like one.
- 864
- 01:12:07,247 --> 01:12:08,682
- Is the queen
- not riding today?
- 865
- 01:12:08,981 --> 01:12:10,016
- Do not speak to me.
- 866
- 01:13:58,123 --> 01:14:00,092
- I have thought on the terms
- of our friendship.
- 867
- 01:14:00,993 --> 01:14:02,695
- I thought
- it was unconditional love.
- 868
- 01:14:04,096 --> 01:14:05,698
- I will get you an audience with the
- queen if you ask her a favor for me.
- 869
- 01:14:06,932 --> 01:14:08,668
- - Wench. You...
- - Harley, you do not need me as an enemy.
- 870
- 01:14:09,135 --> 01:14:11,572
- As it turns out, I am capable
- of much unpleasantness.
- 871
- 01:14:11,938 --> 01:14:15,108
- - As am I.
- - You're so tiring, being like this.
- 872
- 01:14:15,375 --> 01:14:17,340
- The queen
- has taken a shine to me,
- 873
- 01:14:17,342 --> 01:14:20,311
- and I will drip poison
- into her ear regarding you
- 874
- 01:14:20,313 --> 01:14:22,312
- until she is mad
- with hatred for you.
- 875
- 01:14:22,314 --> 01:14:25,318
- Or we could have a mutually
- advantageous friendship.
- 876
- 01:14:25,851 --> 01:14:27,086
- Count of three. Yes or no?
- 877
- 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:29,186
- Well, if you're so close
- to the queen,
- 878
- 01:14:29,188 --> 01:14:30,787
- why not just
- ask this favor yourself?
- 879
- 01:14:30,789 --> 01:14:32,022
- I do not want her
- to ever think
- 880
- 01:14:32,024 --> 01:14:34,157
- I want anything from her.
- 881
- 01:14:34,159 --> 01:14:35,695
- - Have you counseled her for our side?
- - No.
- 882
- 01:14:36,729 --> 01:14:38,396
- The country's future
- hangs in the balance.
- 883
- 01:14:38,398 --> 01:14:40,167
- Mm-hmm. My thing is
- what I wish to talk about.
- 884
- 01:14:40,365 --> 01:14:41,368
- You do not care?
- 885
- 01:14:41,900 --> 01:14:43,369
- I thought
- you were on our side.
- 886
- 01:14:43,703 --> 01:14:45,072
- I'm on my side.
- 887
- 01:14:45,337 --> 01:14:46,340
- Always.
- 888
- 01:14:47,306 --> 01:14:48,875
- Sometimes, it's a happy
- coincidence for you.
- 889
- 01:14:50,042 --> 01:14:53,079
- Like now. You'll get a
- chance to save the country.
- 890
- 01:15:18,805 --> 01:15:20,673
- What tremendous luck
- to find you in the garden.
- 891
- 01:15:21,039 --> 01:15:22,141
- We were taking the air.
- 892
- 01:15:22,708 --> 01:15:24,277
- You do not like
- the war, I know that.
- 893
- 01:15:25,177 --> 01:15:28,314
- No, I do not, but we must
- fight for what we fight for.
- 894
- 01:15:29,082 --> 01:15:31,147
- Godolphin and Lady Marlborough
- seem to have corralled you
- 895
- 01:15:31,149 --> 01:15:33,317
- so you do not get to hear
- from your loyal opposition.
- 896
- 01:15:33,319 --> 01:15:34,884
- I am briefed appropriately.
- 897
- 01:15:34,886 --> 01:15:36,222
- Were it in person,
- I'd believe it.
- 898
- 01:15:36,855 --> 01:15:38,224
- - I am often ill.
- - True.
- 899
- 01:15:39,057 --> 01:15:40,092
- Sadly true.
- 900
- 01:15:41,226 --> 01:15:43,227
- The war with the French will
- bleed us dry even if we win.
- 901
- 01:15:43,229 --> 01:15:44,829
- We are in our strongest
- position now.
- 902
- 01:15:44,831 --> 01:15:46,863
- If Marlborough loses
- this next battle,
- 903
- 01:15:46,865 --> 01:15:48,068
- we could lose all.
- 904
- 01:15:49,301 --> 01:15:51,070
- The people hate the war,
- you realize,
- 905
- 01:15:51,503 --> 01:15:52,773
- they begin to hate you.
- 906
- 01:15:54,474 --> 01:15:56,877
- Lady Marlborough has not told
- you of the riots in Leeds?
- 907
- 01:15:57,409 --> 01:15:58,444
- No, she has not.
- 908
- 01:15:59,645 --> 01:16:02,446
- - All I ask is that you search your heart.
- - Of course.
- 909
- 01:16:02,448 --> 01:16:04,184
- Not Lady Marlborough's heart,
- your own.
- 910
- 01:16:04,951 --> 01:16:06,853
- I must talk to you
- of your maid also.
- 911
- 01:16:07,185 --> 01:16:08,954
- - Abigail?
- - I believe that is her name.
- 912
- 01:16:09,221 --> 01:16:12,024
- It seems Colonel Masham has fallen for her.
- He wishes to marry.
- 913
- 01:16:12,824 --> 01:16:13,658
- She's just a maid.
- 914
- 01:16:14,193 --> 01:16:16,360
- It is irregular
- and inexplicable,
- 915
- 01:16:16,362 --> 01:16:18,931
- but being sentimental, I am
- moved to help if possible.
- 916
- 01:16:23,502 --> 01:16:24,904
- What do you mean
- she's not been seen?
- 917
- 01:16:26,405 --> 01:16:29,109
- She took a horse, Your Majesty.
- It did not come back and nor did she.
- 918
- 01:16:30,376 --> 01:16:31,878
- I shall send riders.
- 919
- 01:16:34,780 --> 01:16:35,481
- No.
- 920
- 01:16:36,548 --> 01:16:38,952
- I think she means to vex me.
- Do not send riders.
- 921
- 01:16:39,318 --> 01:16:40,851
- In case she
- has fallen, though.
- 922
- 01:16:40,853 --> 01:16:42,255
- She's too good
- a rider for that.
- 923
- 01:16:42,488 --> 01:16:44,958
- I know what she is.
- Do not seek her.
- 924
- 01:17:00,338 --> 01:17:01,875
- Where am I?
- 925
- 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:03,243
- You're in heaven.
- 926
- 01:17:04,409 --> 01:17:06,779
- That's God.
- You'll meet him later.
- 927
- 01:17:10,349 --> 01:17:12,953
- - I must go.
- - I don't think that's happening.
- 928
- 01:17:18,925 --> 01:17:19,960
- Lie back.
- 929
- 01:17:25,965 --> 01:17:27,434
- Stop infection.
- 930
- 01:17:38,978 --> 01:17:40,212
- Get Lady Marlborough.
- 931
- 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:43,817
- Now! Take me to her!
- 932
- 01:17:54,226 --> 01:17:55,427
- Find her.
- 933
- 01:17:59,465 --> 01:18:01,835
- Find her!
- 934
- 01:18:15,046 --> 01:18:17,013
- <i>There are wolves
- out there, are there not?</i>
- 935
- 01:18:17,015 --> 01:18:19,549
- No, Your Majesty.
- I don't think so.
- 936
- 01:18:19,551 --> 01:18:22,186
- Perhaps she's gone
- to Blenheim, her palace?
- 937
- 01:18:22,188 --> 01:18:24,420
- There is no palace yet.
- It is the woods.
- 938
- 01:18:24,422 --> 01:18:26,089
- We should check in the trees,
- just to be sure.
- 939
- 01:18:26,091 --> 01:18:28,127
- - Mr. Harley!
- - I apologize.
- 940
- 01:18:28,594 --> 01:18:30,430
- I hope we find her,
- and she's not dead in a ditch.
- 941
- 01:18:30,962 --> 01:18:32,498
- The business of state,
- however, cannot stop.
- 942
- 01:18:32,965 --> 01:18:36,603
- Your Majesty, there has been no
- word from the front in two weeks.
- 943
- 01:18:36,935 --> 01:18:39,104
- There is no doubt that
- Marlborough is in trouble.
- 944
- 01:18:39,604 --> 01:18:42,138
- We need to send a division
- immediately to help him.
- 945
- 01:18:42,140 --> 01:18:45,277
- Costing a fortune, built on your
- paranoia, and walking into God knows what.
- 946
- 01:18:45,511 --> 01:18:47,378
- We need to wait.
- 947
- 01:18:47,380 --> 01:18:49,479
- I will think on it
- for a while.
- 948
- 01:18:49,481 --> 01:18:50,850
- This cannot wait.
- 949
- 01:18:51,149 --> 01:18:53,018
- We need to act now.
- 950
- 01:18:53,286 --> 01:18:55,488
- Is it a bit like going
- late to your party?
- 951
- 01:18:56,255 --> 01:18:59,188
- If the party's going well, they did not
- need you, and they resent the intrusion.
- 952
- 01:18:59,190 --> 01:19:01,525
- But if it's going badly,
- you cannot save it,
- 953
- 01:19:01,527 --> 01:19:04,965
- and you tend to regret ever
- putting on your nice gown for it.
- 954
- 01:19:05,264 --> 01:19:07,298
- It is not like a party.
- 955
- 01:19:07,300 --> 01:19:09,098
- I'm sorry, Prime
- Minister, a passing thought.
- 956
- 01:19:09,100 --> 01:19:10,567
- I think it is like a party.
- 957
- 01:19:10,569 --> 01:19:12,372
- - A perfect analogy.
- - We will wait.
- 958
- 01:19:14,006 --> 01:19:15,575
- Make sure they have their best dresses
- on so they're ready at a moment's notice.
- 959
- 01:19:16,841 --> 01:19:18,110
- Shift a division to the coast
- and have a boat at the ready.
- 960
- 01:19:24,182 --> 01:19:24,984
- Abigail.
- 961
- 01:19:26,452 --> 01:19:28,088
- I worry something
- has befallen her.
- 962
- 01:19:28,587 --> 01:19:30,190
- It's night. Out there alone.
- 963
- 01:19:31,189 --> 01:19:32,259
- She's strong.
- 964
- 01:19:33,158 --> 01:19:34,627
- - And she'll be fine.
- - Yes.
- 965
- 01:19:35,694 --> 01:19:37,429
- She saved me my whole life.
- 966
- 01:19:38,264 --> 01:19:39,595
- Without her, I'm nothing.
- 967
- 01:19:39,597 --> 01:19:41,033
- That is not true.
- 968
- 01:19:41,967 --> 01:19:44,136
- - You are the queen.
- - I'm tired.
- 969
- 01:19:44,403 --> 01:19:46,469
- It hurts.
- Everything hurts.
- 970
- 01:19:46,471 --> 01:19:47,940
- Everyone leaves me.
- 971
- 01:19:49,207 --> 01:19:50,340
- Dies.
- 972
- 01:19:50,342 --> 01:19:51,510
- Finally her.
- 973
- 01:19:54,046 --> 01:19:55,949
- If she's not dead,
- I will cut her throat.
- 974
- 01:19:56,414 --> 01:19:58,251
- She may be doing this
- to hurt me,
- 975
- 01:19:58,484 --> 01:20:00,683
- make me dissolve
- and dissemble. I will not.
- 976
- 01:20:00,685 --> 01:20:03,620
- She will be fine.
- They will find her.
- 977
- 01:20:03,622 --> 01:20:05,121
- I don't care.
- 978
- 01:20:05,123 --> 01:20:07,594
- You are
- a beautiful person.
- 979
- 01:20:08,426 --> 01:20:10,130
- You glow with loveliness.
- 980
- 01:20:12,264 --> 01:20:13,300
- We will marry you.
- 981
- 01:20:14,333 --> 01:20:16,068
- - What?
- - Colonel Masham wishes to marry you.
- 982
- 01:20:16,402 --> 01:20:18,238
- - He does?
- - Yes, you've quite captured him.
- 983
- 01:20:20,006 --> 01:20:21,106
- That is absurd.
- 984
- 01:20:22,475 --> 01:20:23,576
- I have nothing to offer.
- 985
- 01:20:24,076 --> 01:20:25,308
- I'm a penniless servant.
- 986
- 01:20:25,310 --> 01:20:27,177
- It would be career suicide
- for him.
- 987
- 01:20:27,179 --> 01:20:29,580
- Your first thought is for him?
- Oh, you are a darling.
- 988
- 01:20:29,582 --> 01:20:30,951
- I care for him.
- 989
- 01:20:32,350 --> 01:20:33,485
- Not in the way I care for you,
- 990
- 01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:35,622
- but enough to marry.
- 991
- 01:20:36,689 --> 01:20:39,089
- I will not lie, I would like
- to be a lady again.
- 992
- 01:20:39,091 --> 01:20:41,592
- Yes, yes, this is right.
- While she is gone.
- 993
- 01:20:41,594 --> 01:20:44,460
- If we wait, she'll return
- and yell and stomp about it.
- 994
- 01:20:44,462 --> 01:20:46,733
- But you must have this. This is my
- gift to you, and I demand you take it.
- 995
- 01:20:47,065 --> 01:20:47,733
- Of course. When...
- 996
- 01:20:48,067 --> 01:20:49,133
- Let's... Now.
- 997
- 01:20:51,503 --> 01:20:57,174
- I, Abigail Hill, take thee, Samuel
- Masham, to be my lawful wedded husband.
- 998
- 01:20:57,176 --> 01:21:03,213
- I, Samuel Masham, take thee,
- Abigail Hill, to be my lawful wedded wife.
- 999
- 01:21:06,551 --> 01:21:09,385
- It is most generous.
- I am overwhelmed.
- 1000
- 01:21:09,387 --> 01:21:12,188
- - Shall we say "gambling debts," Mr. Harley?
- - Excellent.
- 1001
- 01:21:12,190 --> 01:21:14,258
- Oh, and you are to take
- apartments in the east wing.
- 1002
- 01:21:14,260 --> 01:21:16,259
- - Thank you, Your Majesty.
- - Thank you.
- 1003
- 01:21:16,261 --> 01:21:17,727
- Oh, it is fun
- to be queen sometimes.
- 1004
- 01:21:17,729 --> 01:21:19,629
- Hmm. One can only imagine.
- 1005
- 01:21:21,434 --> 01:21:23,336
- You're looking the wrong way.
- 1006
- 01:21:23,536 --> 01:21:26,236
- Where could she have gone? You
- sent riders looking for her?
- 1007
- 01:21:26,238 --> 01:21:27,774
- I have
- told you before.
- 1008
- 01:21:28,106 --> 01:21:29,540
- She would be sick
- for several days,
- 1009
- 01:21:29,542 --> 01:21:30,840
- but she would be
- near recovered by now.
- 1010
- 01:21:30,842 --> 01:21:32,709
- She probably
- went back to Southampton.
- 1011
- 01:21:32,711 --> 01:21:35,379
- To do what?
- To plan what? To get ready?
- 1012
- 01:21:35,381 --> 01:21:38,618
- I am as hard as a rock,
- and it is our wedding night.
- 1013
- 01:21:45,524 --> 01:21:46,526
- Lie still.
- 1014
- 01:21:59,505 --> 01:22:02,708
- Now that she is gone, I find myself
- more concerned than when she was here.
- 1015
- 01:22:03,876 --> 01:22:06,543
- For it is like she could strike
- from anywhere at any time,
- 1016
- 01:22:06,545 --> 01:22:08,148
- and I will not see it coming.
- 1017
- 01:22:11,649 --> 01:22:12,719
- I must be calm.
- 1018
- 01:22:13,719 --> 01:22:14,721
- She's gone.
- 1019
- 01:22:15,386 --> 01:22:16,422
- I'm married.
- 1020
- 01:22:19,125 --> 01:22:20,557
- But I must be ready.
- And yet, how to be ready
- 1021
- 01:22:20,559 --> 01:22:22,162
- when I do not know
- where my enemy is?
- 1022
- 01:22:23,796 --> 01:22:27,400
- My life is like a maze I continually
- think I have gotten out of,
- 1023
- 01:22:27,699 --> 01:22:30,170
- only to find another corner
- right in front of me.
- 1024
- 01:22:46,217 --> 01:22:48,253
- Boy, fetch me a carriage.
- 1025
- 01:22:49,354 --> 01:22:50,722
- Mae says no.
- 1026
- 01:22:51,590 --> 01:22:54,094
- I'm leaving. Help me up.
- 1027
- 01:22:59,265 --> 01:23:00,400
- Mae says no.
- 1028
- 01:23:04,537 --> 01:23:05,704
- Are you feeling better, then?
- 1029
- 01:23:05,938 --> 01:23:07,937
- Is my horse alive,
- or did you eat it?
- 1030
- 01:23:07,939 --> 01:23:09,241
- I sold it.
- 1031
- 01:23:09,942 --> 01:23:11,411
- You still owe me, though.
- 1032
- 01:23:12,944 --> 01:23:14,945
- <i>You can suck for your supper
- from now on.</i>
- 1033
- 01:23:14,947 --> 01:23:16,548
- <i>I'll take 20%.</i>
- 1034
- 01:23:17,750 --> 01:23:20,487
- <i>You seem posh.
- Gents will like that.</i>
- 1035
- 01:23:20,953 --> 01:23:24,691
- - <i>Have you ever seen ten gold sovereigns?</i>
- - <i>In my dreams.</i>
- 1036
- 01:23:25,291 --> 01:23:27,456
- <i>Go to Hyde Park fountain
- at 9:00 in the morning,</i>
- 1037
- 01:23:27,458 --> 01:23:29,394
- <i>and you will see a man
- walking a duck.</i>
- 1038
- 01:23:36,402 --> 01:23:38,634
- What happened?
- Are you all right?
- 1039
- 01:23:38,636 --> 01:23:41,405
- That cunt, Abigail,
- poisoned me.
- 1040
- 01:23:41,407 --> 01:23:43,476
- Mary Magdalene here
- found me.
- 1041
- 01:23:44,976 --> 01:23:46,211
- Did they rape you?
- 1042
- 01:23:46,679 --> 01:23:48,381
- No, they didn't.
- 1043
- 01:23:48,846 --> 01:23:51,481
- But gainful employment is
- on offer should I need it.
- 1044
- 01:23:51,483 --> 01:23:52,918
- Abigail did this?
- 1045
- 01:23:53,385 --> 01:23:54,287
- Yes.
- 1046
- 01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:56,385

- 1068
- 01:25:24,542 --> 01:25:25,545
- Lady Marlborough.
- 1069
- 01:25:26,878 --> 01:25:27,913
- Oh, dear.
- 1070
- 01:25:28,980 --> 01:25:30,813
- The servant is dressed
- in the clothes of a lady.
- 1071
- 01:25:30,815 --> 01:25:32,949
- How... whimsical.
- 1072
- 01:25:32,951 --> 01:25:34,886
- My dear friend and cousin,
- 1073
- 01:25:35,554 --> 01:25:36,986
- how good to see
- you've returned from...
- 1074
- 01:25:36,988 --> 01:25:37,889
- Hell.
- 1075
- 01:25:38,789 --> 01:25:40,460
- I'm sure you shall
- pass through it one day.
- 1076
- 01:25:40,893 --> 01:25:42,592
- You've missed a few things.
- 1077
- 01:25:42,594 --> 01:25:43,695
- My marriage.
- 1078
- 01:25:44,729 --> 01:25:46,632
- It was a simple affair,
- but beautifully done.
- 1079
- 01:25:48,867 --> 01:25:50,270
- Everyone leave.
- 1080
- 01:25:54,707 --> 01:25:58,278
- If you offer me tea, you will
- forgive me if I don't accept.
- 1081
- 01:25:59,944 --> 01:26:03,849
- I have searched my heart, and I did not
- have trust in it, and that is my shame.
- 1082
- 01:26:04,515 --> 01:26:06,585
- I could not just stand by
- and let you destroy me.
- 1083
- 01:26:07,586 --> 01:26:08,855
- You have perhaps
- taught me that.
- 1084
- 01:26:10,021 --> 01:26:11,024
- But it's over now.
- 1085
- 01:26:12,056 --> 01:26:14,559
- I have won. I am safe.
- 1086
- 01:26:15,360 --> 01:26:17,764
- We do not have to fight anymore.
- Is that not grand?
- 1087
- 01:26:18,863 --> 01:26:21,000
- If you just forgive me,
- we can be happy together.
- 1088
- 01:26:27,538 --> 01:26:29,942
- Obviously, you still have
- some anger to expiate.
- 1089
- 01:26:31,609 --> 01:26:32,944
- I'll allow it this once.
- 1090
- 01:26:33,712 --> 01:26:36,079
- Congratulations
- on your wedded bliss.
- 1091
- 01:26:45,524 --> 01:26:46,559
- Your face.
- 1092
- 01:26:47,859 --> 01:26:49,860
- Do I look that bad? If I were
- a man, it'd be quite dashing,
- 1093
- 01:26:49,862 --> 01:26:50,930
- a scar like this.
- 1094
- 01:26:52,064 --> 01:26:54,033
- Where have you been, Sarah?
- Why did you leave like that?
- 1095
- 01:26:54,699 --> 01:26:55,768
- I went riding.
- 1096
- 01:26:56,135 --> 01:26:57,537
- Some bandits attacked me.
- 1097
- 01:26:58,036 --> 01:26:59,639
- It took me a while
- to fight them off.
- 1098
- 01:26:59,971 --> 01:27:01,103
- Oh, your poor face.
- 1099
- 01:27:01,105 --> 01:27:02,341
- You should see them.
- 1100
- 01:27:03,342 --> 01:27:04,743
- And you've been well
- taken care of, I trust.
- 1101
- 01:27:05,077 --> 01:27:07,480
- Some men were eventually
- sent to find me, I hear.
- 1102
- 01:27:08,146 --> 01:27:09,948
- I was worried for you.
- I thought you...
- 1103
- 01:27:11,115 --> 01:27:12,652
- You did not do it
- to try and hurt me?
- 1104
- 01:27:13,452 --> 01:27:14,820
- I do not play games with you.
- 1105
- 01:27:15,887 --> 01:27:17,023
- No, I know, I know.
- 1106
- 01:27:17,922 --> 01:27:18,890
- Look at me.
- 1107
- 01:27:20,926 --> 01:27:23,396
- I will say this once and
- plainly, my dearest one.
- 1108
- 01:27:23,895 --> 01:27:25,097
- You must send Abigail away.
- 1109
- 01:27:25,831 --> 01:27:28,134
- From my heart,
- Mrs. Morley, do it.
- 1110
- 01:27:28,766 --> 01:27:29,868
- I do not want to.
- 1111
- 01:27:30,702 --> 01:27:31,902
- She is a viper.
- 1112
- 01:27:33,872 --> 01:27:35,108
- You're jealous.
- 1113
- 01:27:35,440 --> 01:27:37,143
- You will do as I say.
- 1114
- 01:27:37,643 --> 01:27:39,910
- - The prime minister and Mr. Harley.
- - What is it?
- 1115
- 01:27:39,912 --> 01:27:42,048
- A thousand pardons, Your
- Majesty, but word from the front.
- 1116
- 01:27:42,448 --> 01:27:45,785
- - What has happened?
- - Marlborough is ready. He has them outflanked.
- 1117
- 01:27:46,051 --> 01:27:48,020
- He needs a garrison
- to attack the coast.
- 1118
- 01:27:48,453 --> 01:27:49,986
- Let them go to the party now.
- 1119
- 01:27:49,988 --> 01:27:51,053
- Of course, Your Majesty.
- 1120
- 01:27:51,055 --> 01:27:52,722
- What party?
- 1121
- 01:27:52,724 --> 01:27:54,060
- It happened
- while you were gone.
- 1122
- 01:27:54,592 --> 01:27:56,863
- Thank you, gentlemen.
- Keep me informed of progress.
- 1123
- 01:27:57,095 --> 01:27:59,899
- It is good to see you home and
- looking so well, Lady Marlborough.
- 1124
- 01:28:07,171 --> 01:28:09,205
- Now, you did very well
- with the divisions.
- 1125
- 01:28:09,207 --> 01:28:11,907
- - Yes, I know I did.
- - However, the two new cabinet positions,
- 1126
- 01:28:11,909 --> 01:28:13,145
- they must stay with the Whigs.
- 1127
- 01:28:14,313 --> 01:28:16,847
- I am the queen. Do not try
- to do that thing you do.
- 1128
- 01:28:16,849 --> 01:28:18,851
- Do not try to manage this,
- as you cannot.
- 1129
- 01:28:19,251 --> 01:28:21,550
- I know that Harley has been in
- your ear and Abigail in your bed.
- 1130
- 01:28:21,552 --> 01:28:24,157
- Enough! You will be as I wish
- you to be from now on.
- 1131
- 01:28:24,489 --> 01:28:25,190
- Do you understand?
- 1132
- 01:28:25,623 --> 01:28:26,525
- Anne.
- 1133
- 01:28:26,859 --> 01:28:28,194
- Don't. No, don't.
- 1134
- 01:28:28,993 --> 01:28:30,796
- No, your face frightens me.
- Don't!
- 1135
- 01:28:31,630 --> 01:28:33,733
- Good night, Lady Marlborough.
- 1136
- 01:28:41,773 --> 01:28:42,775
- Morning.
- 1137
- 01:28:45,277 --> 01:28:46,110
- Morning.
- 1138
- 01:28:47,078 --> 01:28:48,880
- What a strange sight you are,
- my dear.
- 1139
- 01:28:49,146 --> 01:28:50,483
- It is better, though.
- 1140
- 01:29:01,659 --> 01:29:04,227
- I think I'm becoming quite
- sentimental as I get older.
- 1141
- 01:29:04,229 --> 01:29:06,865
- Didn't think you had the
- capacity for sentimentality.
- 1142
- 01:29:09,701 --> 01:29:11,170
- I didn't think so either...
- 1143
- 01:29:12,069 --> 01:29:13,939
- <i>but so much
- is surprising me lately.</i>
- 1144
- 01:29:15,675 --> 01:29:17,976
- <i>I started looking over some of the many,
- many, many letters you've written me.</i>
- 1145
- 01:29:19,243 --> 01:29:20,979
- <i>"I long for your embrace.</i>
- 1146
- 01:29:21,846 --> 01:29:24,250
- <i>I long for the heat from
- your naked body on mine."</i>
- 1147
- 01:29:24,582 --> 01:29:27,152
- It's very intense,
- very explicit.
- 1148
- 01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:31,724
- I thought I'd misplaced some of them
- the other day. It was quite a fright.
- 1149
- 01:29:32,123 --> 01:29:35,157
- What if, say, that son of a bitch,
- Jonathan Swift, got his hands on them?
- 1150
- 01:29:35,159 --> 01:29:37,626
- In his newspaper the next day.
- 1151
- 01:29:37,628 --> 01:29:39,161
- You would be ruined.
- 1152
- 01:29:39,163 --> 01:29:40,233
- You would never.
- 1153
- 01:29:41,266 --> 01:29:44,903
- You have no idea what
- I would do for my country...
- 1154
- 01:29:45,871 --> 01:29:46,838
- and for you.
- 1155
- 01:29:48,206 --> 01:29:50,139
- Ruin me? You would do that?
- 1156
- 01:29:50,141 --> 01:29:51,974
- I will use these letters,
- 1157
- 01:29:51,976 --> 01:29:53,677
- unless you announce
- the tax rise,
- 1158
- 01:29:53,679 --> 01:29:55,144
- change the cabinet
- as I wish,
- 1159
- 01:29:55,146 --> 01:29:56,748
- and get rid of Abigail.
- 1160
- 01:30:20,738 --> 01:30:22,240
- Do you not wish to know
- what I've decided?
- 1161
- 01:30:23,175 --> 01:30:24,976
- I wish to know
- that you are happy,
- 1162
- 01:30:25,810 --> 01:30:28,179
- and that your spirit will
- lighten once this is done.
- 1163
- 01:31:29,106 --> 01:31:31,844
- The queen requests
- the return of your key.
- 1164
- 01:31:32,043 --> 01:31:34,947
- You will return it
- and vacate court today.
- 1165
- 01:31:36,113 --> 01:31:36,881
- Where is she?
- 1166
- 01:31:37,416 --> 01:31:38,947
- You will hand over the key.
- 1167
- 01:31:38,949 --> 01:31:41,753
- The queen will not grant you
- an audience.
- 1168
- 01:32:02,908 --> 01:32:03,843
- Anne?
- 1169
- 01:32:04,141 --> 01:32:05,845
- I handed over my key.
- 1170
- 01:32:11,216 --> 01:32:13,953
- Mrs. Morley,
- you are angry, I know.
- 1171
- 01:32:14,853 --> 01:32:15,988
- I am sorry.
- 1172
- 01:32:16,755 --> 01:32:18,423
- I went quite mad for a moment.
- 1173
- 01:32:18,756 --> 01:32:19,723
- Just open the door.
- 1174
- 01:32:23,795 --> 01:32:26,265
- Please, just... Could you just...
- 1175
- 01:32:27,131 --> 01:32:29,067
- Mrs. Morley, open the door.
- 1176
- 01:32:39,310 --> 01:32:41,980
- I burned the letters.
- I burned them.
- 1177
- 01:32:46,752 --> 01:32:48,320
- Oh, do what you will.
- 1178
- 01:33:09,940 --> 01:33:11,911
- But I will not come back.
- 1179
- 01:33:13,478 --> 01:33:15,146
- Do you understand?
- 1180
- 01:33:16,046 --> 01:33:17,982
- I will go and be gone.
- 1181
- 01:33:22,554 --> 01:33:24,289
- Abigail has done this.
- 1182
- 01:33:25,556 --> 01:33:27,292
- She does not love you.
- 1183
- 01:33:28,126 --> 01:33:30,058
- Because how could anyone?
- 1184
- 01:33:30,060 --> 01:33:32,130
- She wants nothing from me,
- unlike you.
- 1185
- 01:33:33,097 --> 01:33:34,998
- She wants nothing from you,
- 1186
- 01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:39,268
- and yet somehow she is a lady,
- with 2,000 a year,
- 1187
- 01:33:39,270 --> 01:33:41,370
- and Harley sits
- on your knee most nights.
- 1188
- 01:33:41,372 --> 01:33:43,208
- I wish you could love me
- as she does.
- 1189
- 01:33:44,341 --> 01:33:46,077
- You wish me to lie to you?
- 1190
- 01:33:47,412 --> 01:33:48,314
- Oh.
- 1191
- 01:33:48,814 --> 01:33:50,379
- "You look like a... a...
- 1192
- 01:33:50,381 --> 01:33:52,784
- an angel fell from heaven,
- Your Majesty."
- 1193
- 01:33:53,518 --> 01:33:54,219
- No.
- 1194
- 01:33:55,020 --> 01:33:57,089
- Sometimes,
- you look like a badger.
- 1195
- 01:33:57,521 --> 01:33:59,888
- - And you can rely on me to tell you.
- - Why?
- 1196
- 01:33:59,890 --> 01:34:02,360
- Because I will not lie!
- That is love!
- 1197
- 01:34:16,341 --> 01:34:18,144
- I have
- my duties to attend to.
- 1198
- 01:34:51,141 --> 01:34:52,177
- I have...
- 1199
- 01:34:59,350 --> 01:35:03,018
- I have, over the last several months,
- been unhappy with the government.
- 1200
- 01:35:04,521 --> 01:35:06,992
- Lord Godolphin
- has lost my confidence.
- 1201
- 01:35:09,261 --> 01:35:11,864
- Therefore, I am announcing
- a new prime minister...
- 1202
- 01:35:13,297 --> 01:35:14,934
- will be Mr. Harley.
- 1203
- 01:35:18,203 --> 01:35:19,238
- Godolphin,
- 1204
- 01:35:19,938 --> 01:35:21,507
- I thank you for your service.
- 1205
- 01:35:22,506 --> 01:35:25,510
- We will sue for peace
- with France immediately.
- 1206
- 01:35:26,077 --> 01:35:28,076
- I have spoken!
- 1207
- 01:35:28,078 --> 01:35:29,445
- All depart!
- 1208
- 01:35:41,659 --> 01:35:43,394
- Leave that. I like it.
- 1209
- 01:35:44,362 --> 01:35:45,631
- The mirrors stay, too.
- 1210
- 01:35:47,032 --> 01:35:49,134
- Oh, my God. You actually think
- you have won.
- 1211
- 01:35:52,069 --> 01:35:53,104
- Haven't I?
- 1212
- 01:35:54,271 --> 01:35:56,207
- We were playing
- very different games.
- 1213
- 01:35:57,341 --> 01:36:00,209
- All I know is,
- your carriage awaits,
- 1214
- 01:36:00,211 --> 01:36:03,015
- and my maid is on her way up with
- something called a pineapple.
- 1215
- 01:36:34,712 --> 01:36:35,680
- Go?
- 1216
- 01:36:43,587 --> 01:36:44,489
- Go.
- 1217
- 01:37:05,743 --> 01:37:06,978
- Do it again!
- 1218
- 01:38:05,069 --> 01:38:05,770
- I'm here.
- 1219
- 01:38:12,377 --> 01:38:13,712
- Will you do my legs, please?
- 1220
- 01:38:14,546 --> 01:38:16,015
- Of course.
- 1221
- 01:38:16,648 --> 01:38:18,150
- Hot towels, now.
- 1222
- 01:38:24,389 --> 01:38:25,423
- Are you drunk?
- 1223
- 01:38:26,356 --> 01:38:27,458
- I've had wine.
- 1224
- 01:38:28,259 --> 01:38:29,427
- Very good wine.
- 1225
- 01:38:30,729 --> 01:38:33,295
- You should have some. I'll get you some.
- It would ease you.
- 1226
- 01:38:33,297 --> 01:38:34,198
- No.
- 1227
- 01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:37,569
- I don't understand
- these papers.
- 1228
- 01:38:43,475 --> 01:38:44,510
- I'm feeling unwell.
- 1229
- 01:38:46,176 --> 01:38:47,311
- Excuse me a moment, please.
- 1230
- 01:39:02,493 --> 01:39:04,162
- Sorry. I am unwell.
- 1231
- 01:39:04,496 --> 01:39:06,597
- Why, lay down. I'll call
- the doctor for you, my love.
- 1232
- 01:39:07,231 --> 01:39:09,264
- Thank you, thank you.
- 1233
- 01:39:13,337 --> 01:39:14,372
- Doctor.
- 1234
- 01:39:33,658 --> 01:39:36,858
- - What goes on?
- - They've brokered a peace with the French,
- 1235
- 01:39:36,860 --> 01:39:38,760
- giving up too much, of course.
- 1236
- 01:39:38,762 --> 01:39:39,861
- Of course.
- 1237
- 01:39:39,863 --> 01:39:41,863
- Marlborough returns in a week.
- 1238
- 01:39:41,865 --> 01:39:43,933
- Harley will move
- to have him replaced.
- 1239
- 01:39:43,935 --> 01:39:47,402
- Now that peace with France has been made...
- 1240
- 01:39:47,404 --> 01:39:50,940
- Marlborough's return back to England
- is imminent. I wonder, Your Majesty,
- 1241
- 01:39:50,942 --> 01:39:53,509
- whether it is right that he
- is left as head of our forces?
- 1242
- 01:39:53,511 --> 01:39:57,312
- I will rip his mole from his face.
- You must stop it, Godolphin.
- 1243
- 01:39:57,314 --> 01:39:59,714
- He is a hero
- who won the peace for us.
- 1244
- 01:39:59,716 --> 01:40:01,918
- Indeed, but he would have
- launched us into a bloody war
- 1245
- 01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:03,689
- that would have ruined us,
- so there's that.
- 1246
- 01:40:03,887 --> 01:40:06,555
- It would be easier to pull my
- strings if you were back at court.
- 1247
- 01:40:06,557 --> 01:40:09,325
- A new era of peace
- and prosperity, a new day,
- 1248
- 01:40:09,327 --> 01:40:10,896
- a door to a new future.
- 1249
- 01:40:11,229 --> 01:40:12,331
- There's metaphors abound.
- 1250
- 01:40:12,529 --> 01:40:14,897
- I'm tired.
- I will think on it.
- 1251
- 01:40:14,899 --> 01:40:16,135
- Thank you, all.
- 1252
- 01:40:19,604 --> 01:40:21,173
- Obviously, you have chosen
- 1253
- 01:40:21,439 --> 01:40:22,875
- to keep the particulars
- of your dismissal from me.
- 1254
- 01:40:23,207 --> 01:40:24,941
- I shall leave a gap
- in the conversation
- 1255
- 01:40:24,943 --> 01:40:26,411
- for you to remedy that.
- 1256
- 01:40:34,284 --> 01:40:36,619
- I do not know of women
- and their feelings,
- 1257
- 01:40:36,621 --> 01:40:39,821
- but I know they nurse their
- hurts like wailing newborns.
- 1258
- 01:40:39,823 --> 01:40:43,992
- Godolphin, I feel a surge of
- desire to see your nose broken.
- 1259
- 01:40:43,994 --> 01:40:45,163
- Your point?
- 1260
- 01:40:45,662 --> 01:40:46,564
- Your Majesty,
- 1261
- 01:40:47,565 --> 01:40:48,934
- may I broach the matter
- of Lady Marlborough?
- 1262
- 01:40:49,266 --> 01:40:50,100
- No, you may not.
- 1263
- 01:40:50,635 --> 01:40:52,367
- A breach
- in a dear friendship.
- 1264
- 01:40:52,369 --> 01:40:53,869
- Surely this could be healed.
- 1265
- 01:40:53,871 --> 01:40:55,873
- Some wounds do not close.
- 1266
- 01:40:56,373 --> 01:40:57,542
- I have many such.
- 1267
- 01:40:57,908 --> 01:40:59,478
- One just
- walks around with them,
- 1268
- 01:40:59,777 --> 01:41:02,445
- and sometimes one can
- feel them filling with blood.
- 1269
- 01:41:02,447 --> 01:41:06,752
- A letter. An apology of some sort
- that facilitates your return.
- 1270
- 01:41:07,284 --> 01:41:08,787
- There are limits
- to what one can give.
- 1271
- 01:41:09,386 --> 01:41:12,321
- Perhaps she could write you,
- and we could attempt to repair
- 1272
- 01:41:12,323 --> 01:41:14,493
- at least one wound
- in our queen?
- 1273
- 01:41:18,662 --> 01:41:19,730
- Cannot stop her.
- 1274
- 01:41:20,297 --> 01:41:21,500
- I imagine it'd be pointless,
- 1275
- 01:41:21,798 --> 01:41:23,398
- and I would dash the letter
- into the fire,
- 1276
- 01:41:23,400 --> 01:41:24,970
- but I cannot stop her.
- 1277
- 01:41:27,838 --> 01:41:30,908
- "You... cunt."
- 1278
- 01:41:38,882 --> 01:41:39,984
- "My God,
- 1279
- 01:41:40,784 --> 01:41:42,287
- I miss you."
- 1280
- 01:41:49,726 --> 01:41:51,994
- Are you sure
- this is all of the mail?
- 1281
- 01:41:51,996 --> 01:41:53,265
- You seek something?
- 1282
- 01:41:55,432 --> 01:41:59,003
- No, I... A fabric piece
- from my cousin in Florence.
- 1283
- 01:41:59,337 --> 01:42:00,872
- I'm sure it will come.
- 1284
- 01:42:01,738 --> 01:42:06,709
- "I dreamt I stabbed you
- 1285
- 01:42:06,711 --> 01:42:09,548
- in the eye."
- 1286
- 01:42:14,385 --> 01:42:15,918
- This cannot be all of it.
- 1287
- 01:42:15,920 --> 01:42:17,652
- - It is, ma'am.
- - Don't lean at me!
- 1288
- 01:42:17,654 --> 01:42:19,522
- Shall we request another
- fabric piece
- 1289
- 01:42:19,524 --> 01:42:20,659
- from your cousin in Florence?
- 1290
- 01:42:21,859 --> 01:42:23,858
- Perhaps it was lost or eaten
- by mice on the long journey.
- 1291
- 01:42:23,860 --> 01:42:26,528
- No, I just want to know
- that all my mail is here.
- 1292
- 01:42:26,530 --> 01:42:28,667
- Of course.
- Footman, go and check again.
- 1293
- 01:42:28,865 --> 01:42:29,900
- Immediately.
- 1294
- 01:42:30,868 --> 01:42:31,903
- Incompetent.
- 1295
- 01:42:41,045 --> 01:42:43,614
- "My dearest...
- 1296
- 01:42:44,515 --> 01:42:47,286
- Mrs. Morley...
- 1297
- 01:42:51,021 --> 01:42:51,922
- I..."
- 1298
- 01:43:15,011 --> 01:43:16,414
- I am in a quandary...
- 1299
- 01:43:17,148 --> 01:43:18,617
- and you are my dearest one.
- 1300
- 01:43:20,417 --> 01:43:22,684
- I do not know
- whether to speak of it.
- 1301
- 01:43:22,686 --> 01:43:23,721
- What is it?
- 1302
- 01:43:24,154 --> 01:43:26,090
- - I'm not sure.
- - I don't like this.
- 1303
- 01:43:26,423 --> 01:43:28,124
- You'll lodge this unknowable
- thing in my brain,
- 1304
- 01:43:28,126 --> 01:43:30,695
- and it will eat me
- with horrible possibilities.
- 1305
- 01:43:30,994 --> 01:43:32,863
- It is not horrible, dear Anne.
- 1306
- 01:43:33,698 --> 01:43:34,766
- It is just money.
- 1307
- 01:43:35,699 --> 01:43:36,600
- Money?
- 1308
- 01:43:37,801 --> 01:43:39,804
- I have found in the books...
- 1309
- 01:43:40,971 --> 01:43:43,108
- large sums of money seem
- to have flowed to Marlborough,
- 1310
- 01:43:43,774 --> 01:43:46,107
- but are not reflected in the
- forces' receipts of expenses.
- 1311
- 01:43:46,109 --> 01:43:47,011
- What?
- 1312
- 01:43:48,112 --> 01:43:49,114
- It is gone.
- 1313
- 01:43:50,547 --> 01:43:52,117
- Shall I request it back
- on his return?
- 1314
- 01:43:53,050 --> 01:43:54,653
- Quietly, perhaps?
- 1315
- 01:43:54,851 --> 01:43:57,389
- Are you saying that Sarah
- diverted money to him?
- 1316
- 01:43:57,755 --> 01:43:58,789
- It does seem so.
- 1317
- 01:43:59,957 --> 01:44:01,093
- Some 7,000.
- 1318
- 01:44:02,126 --> 01:44:03,362
- She would not.
- 1319
- 01:44:04,962 --> 01:44:06,798
- - It is just...
- - She would not.
- 1320
- 01:44:11,536 --> 01:44:13,872
- I'm, of course, perhaps
- mistaken in the bookkeeping.
- 1321
- 01:44:16,173 --> 01:44:20,009
- Sometimes all these numbers are dizzying,
- and they're as fickle as humans.
- 1322
- 01:44:20,011 --> 01:44:22,748
- They often do add up on the
- second or third attempt.
- 1323
- 01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:25,750
- There's a simple explanation
- I'm not seeing.
- 1324
- 01:44:26,917 --> 01:44:28,586
- We shall banish it
- from our minds.
- 1325
- 01:44:30,755 --> 01:44:33,525
- Shall we take the children
- for a walk in the garden?
- 1326
- 01:44:37,595 --> 01:44:39,898
- No, thank you. I need to rest.
- 1327
- 01:44:41,932 --> 01:44:42,900
- You may leave.
- 1328
- 01:44:56,881 --> 01:44:57,883
- Fuck!
- 1329
- 01:44:58,716 --> 01:45:01,052
- Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
- 1330
- 01:45:03,753 --> 01:45:04,722
- Fuck!
- 1331
- 01:45:23,140 --> 01:45:24,676
- I need to put it back.
- 1332
- 01:45:30,881 --> 01:45:31,817
- Be gone.
- 1333
- 01:46:37,881 --> 01:46:40,618
- Marlborough is at Southampton.
- We need a decision.
- 1334
- 01:46:40,885 --> 01:46:42,217
- Your Majesty, if I may...
- 1335
- 01:46:42,219 --> 01:46:43,822
- There was very little mail
- today.
- 1336
- 01:46:45,055 --> 01:46:47,692
- Quite. If I may, the
- situation with Marlborough?
- 1337
- 01:46:48,359 --> 01:46:50,224
- He is stealing from me.
- 1338
- 01:46:50,226 --> 01:46:51,128
- What?
- 1339
- 01:46:52,729 --> 01:46:54,796
- Your Majesty,
- that is preposterous.
- 1340
- 01:46:54,798 --> 01:46:56,130
- Lady Abigail, privy purse,
- 1341
- 01:46:56,132 --> 01:46:58,767
- is it not true they have
- stolen from me?
- 1342
- 01:46:58,769 --> 01:46:59,905
- Damaged us?
- 1343
- 01:47:01,238 --> 01:47:02,140
- Yes.
- 1344
- 01:47:05,943 --> 01:47:07,646
- It is all there
- in black and white.
- 1345
- 01:47:08,244 --> 01:47:09,914
- She must be ruined,
- 1346
- 01:47:10,648 --> 01:47:12,113
- banished from their
- beloved England.
- 1347
- 01:47:12,115 --> 01:47:13,585
- They are not loyal.
- 1348
- 01:47:13,850 --> 01:47:16,121
- They would hurt us,
- our country, the queen.
- 1349
- 01:47:17,121 --> 01:47:19,687
- - Your Majesty, if I may...
- - No, you may not!
- 1350
- 01:47:19,689 --> 01:47:21,190
- He will be charged.
- They will be banished.
- 1351
- 01:47:21,192 --> 01:47:22,961
- I have spoken. Get out!
- 1352
- 01:47:53,423 --> 01:47:54,993
- Ah, the mail is here.
- 1353
- 01:48:03,100 --> 01:48:05,770
- I suddenly feel so tired
- of England, my darling.
- 1354
- 01:48:06,369 --> 01:48:07,972
- Perhaps we should go
- somewhere else.
- 1355
- 01:49:21,311 --> 01:49:22,212
- Anne?
- 1356
- 01:49:26,050 --> 01:49:27,284
- Darling Anne?
- 1357
- 01:49:29,086 --> 01:49:30,088
- Let's get you in a chair.
- 1358
- 01:49:30,386 --> 01:49:32,322
- How dare you touch
- the queen like that!
- 1359
- 01:49:33,990 --> 01:49:36,360
- - I'm sorry.
- - I did not ask you to speak.
- 1360
- 01:49:44,201 --> 01:49:45,235
- Rub my leg.
- 1361
- 01:50:18,469 --> 01:50:21,372
- - You should lie down.
- - You shall speak when asked to.
- 1362
- 01:50:33,216 --> 01:50:34,351
- I feel dizzy.
- 1363
- 01:50:35,552 --> 01:50:37,255
- I need
- to hold on to something.
