Mr. Turner (2014)

1
00:02:07,771 --> 00:02:10,447
Do you know what he said
to me last time?

2
00:02:10,547 --> 00:02:13,325
I said to him,
"Are you the jolliest at home?"

3
00:02:13,425 --> 00:02:17,538
And he said, "Yes, except for the door knob
because that gives everyone a handshake."

4
00:05:15,816 --> 00:05:17,041
Oi!

5
00:05:38,588 --> 00:05:42,409
Aye, aye, me damsel.

6
00:05:42,509 --> 00:05:44,276
Welcome home, Mr Billy.

7
00:05:48,098 --> 00:05:50,459
- We've been worried to death about you.
- For why?

8
00:05:50,559 --> 00:05:52,169
On account of that explosion.

9
00:05:52,269 --> 00:05:54,546
- What was that?
- At Ostend.

10
00:05:54,646 --> 00:05:57,841
Oh, yes.
I heard tell of that at Antwerp.

11
00:05:57,941 --> 00:05:59,291
Dreadful.

12
00:05:59,651 --> 00:06:00,719
Dirty linen.

13
00:06:00,819 --> 00:06:03,180
Mr William's been getting
in a stew about it.

14
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:06,475
- Is he out and about his business?
- That he is.

15
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:41,009
You faring well?

16
00:06:41,109 --> 00:06:42,626
Thank you.

17
00:06:47,616 --> 00:06:50,602
- How was your journey home?
- It was execrable.

18
00:07:15,936 --> 00:07:18,588
You in need of anything else?

19
00:07:18,688 --> 00:07:19,997
Tea?

20
00:07:47,884 --> 00:07:51,913
- Good morning, Signor Grande.
- Mr Turner! Buongiorno.

21
00:07:52,013 --> 00:07:53,995
- Joshua.
- Morning, sir.

22
00:07:54,095 --> 00:07:57,294
- We have damn rats.
- No shortage of them in this city.

23
00:07:57,394 --> 00:08:00,922
Wretched things! It's an epidemic.

24
00:08:01,022 --> 00:08:03,717
- What can I do for you today?
- Well, let me see.

25
00:08:03,817 --> 00:08:06,595
- He is back?
- We are expecting him any day now.

26
00:08:06,695 --> 00:08:09,056
Bravo! The prodigal son.

27
00:08:09,156 --> 00:08:12,350
- Pronti. What do we need?
- An ounce of chrome yellow.

28
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:14,561
- Chrome yellow, Joshua.
- Chrome yellow, sir.

29
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:17,346
- A large packet of flake white.
- Flake white.

30
00:08:18,165 --> 00:08:20,817
What is your price
for a bladder of ultramarine?

31
00:08:20,917 --> 00:08:22,736
My price is the best price.

32
00:08:22,836 --> 00:08:24,988
And what might that price be?

33
00:08:25,088 --> 00:08:29,576
Blue ultramarine is coming
from far, far away: Afghanistan.

34
00:08:29,676 --> 00:08:33,080
- What else do you need?
- Bottle of poppy oil, some Indian red.

35
00:08:33,180 --> 00:08:35,614
- Poppy oil, Joshua.
- Yes, sir.

36
00:09:10,133 --> 00:09:12,536
There's your prize porker.

37
00:09:12,636 --> 00:09:14,579
Is he handsome?

38
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,197
He has a big smile on his face.

39
00:09:18,433 --> 00:09:21,378
- You're making the sauce?
- It's all but done, save the brains.

40
00:09:21,478 --> 00:09:24,506
Good. Oh... dearie me!

41
00:09:24,606 --> 00:09:28,677
- Will you take a dish of tea, Mr William?
- Oh, thank ye, Hannah.

42
00:09:28,777 --> 00:09:31,721
Shall you be putting those chattels away?
I should.

43
00:09:31,821 --> 00:09:33,515
- Best do it now.
- Yes.

44
00:09:33,615 --> 00:09:36,717
Then I can rest me weary legs.

45
00:09:55,345 --> 00:09:58,322
You're home, Billy boy!

46
00:10:01,184 --> 00:10:03,712
Hey, Daddy!

47
00:10:05,146 --> 00:10:07,048
I thought you was exploded.

48
00:10:07,148 --> 00:10:09,885
I been down on my knees
and praying you was safe.

49
00:10:09,985 --> 00:10:13,054
Well, you been chafing your old pedestals
for naught, Daddy.

50
00:10:13,154 --> 00:10:14,472
I was a hundred miles distant.

51
00:10:14,572 --> 00:10:16,516
- Oh, you heard tell of it, then?
- I did indeed.

52
00:10:16,616 --> 00:10:20,061
Terrible, they pour souls as perished,
two score or more.

53
00:10:20,161 --> 00:10:23,315
Took a few brave soldiers
with it an' all.

54
00:10:23,415 --> 00:10:26,985
I was vexed to learn
you been entertaining concerns, old Dadda.

55
00:10:27,085 --> 00:10:29,144
'Twas only natural.

56
00:10:30,338 --> 00:10:32,490
Oh, Daddy!

57
00:10:32,590 --> 00:10:34,284
How was your crossing?

58
00:10:34,384 --> 00:10:37,662
Set fair on departure,
lumpy in the middle.

59
00:10:37,762 --> 00:10:40,707
- Did you sail from Rotterdam?
- No, Dieppe.

60
00:10:42,392 --> 00:10:45,295
Night coach from Brighton
proved to be an heinous travail.

61
00:10:45,395 --> 00:10:46,338
How so?

62
00:10:46,438 --> 00:10:49,174
It was stuffed full of yacking
and cackling females.

63
00:10:49,274 --> 00:10:53,053
Pox-ridden harridan as broad in the beam
as the old Victory at Trafalgar.

64
00:10:53,153 --> 00:10:57,849
- Were your travels productive?
- Exceeding refreshing, old Daddy.

65
00:10:57,949 --> 00:10:59,392
Yeah, Amsterdam.

66
00:10:59,492 --> 00:11:01,978
Had a gander at the Rembrandt.

67
00:11:02,078 --> 00:11:04,648
Militia Company, Antwerp Cathedral.

68
00:11:04,748 --> 00:11:06,566
Rubens, the triptych.

69
00:11:06,666 --> 00:11:09,069
Flanders,
still as flat as a witch's tit.

70
00:11:09,169 --> 00:11:12,646
Thank you, Hannah. You sly girl.

71
00:11:14,132 --> 00:11:16,409
Did you find tolerable diggings?

72
00:11:16,509 --> 00:11:19,621
Stinking flea pit at Dieppe,
then moved to the harbour.

73
00:11:19,721 --> 00:11:22,332
Westerly aspect, fine sunset.

74
00:11:22,432 --> 00:11:25,168
Oh, Daddy,
I'm in need of an eight-by-six.

75
00:11:25,268 --> 00:11:30,131
I have a seven by five-and-a-half
ready sized and primed.

76
00:11:30,231 --> 00:11:32,926
- That should suit.
- Right you be.

77
00:11:33,026 --> 00:11:35,887
More's to the point,
how you been faring?

78
00:11:35,987 --> 00:11:37,597
In good health, thank the Lord.

79
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:39,975
- Bronchioles still rattling?
- No.

80
00:11:40,075 --> 00:11:42,394
He was wheezing last week.

81
00:11:42,494 --> 00:11:45,981
October ain't quite come
round the corner yet, has it?

82
00:11:46,081 --> 00:11:47,857
I've been over to Grande's.

83
00:11:49,125 --> 00:11:51,403
Ultramarine's gone up
to a guinea a bladder.

84
00:11:51,503 --> 00:11:52,821
Gawd's truth!

85
00:11:52,921 --> 00:11:54,980
That brigand still robbing us, is he?

86
00:11:56,174 --> 00:12:00,996
- You're in need of a shave.
- Yeah, well, be that as it may, Daddy.

87
00:12:01,096 --> 00:12:05,282
Presently I'm gonna throw myself
into the arms of Morpheus.

88
00:12:48,309 --> 00:12:49,618
No!

89
00:13:00,155 --> 00:13:03,016
I took a trip down west,
Exeter, last week.

90
00:13:04,868 --> 00:13:08,271
- How fares the old uncle?
- Bearing up, considering.

91
00:13:08,371 --> 00:13:12,192
- Considering what?
- Well, his age, living alone.

92
00:13:17,255 --> 00:13:19,115
Here's the thing.

93
00:13:19,215 --> 00:13:22,067
He wants to arrange a family gathering.

94
00:13:40,111 --> 00:13:42,639
Will you take some more cheek?

95
00:13:42,739 --> 00:13:46,017
Yeah, cast us another morsel.

96
00:13:46,117 --> 00:13:48,937
Missing your button, Mr Billy.

97
00:14:04,636 --> 00:14:08,238
Be so kind as to enter the vestibule.

98
00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:19,082
The darkness is to a purpose.

99
00:14:19,817 --> 00:14:22,753
I shall return by and by.

100
00:14:49,556 --> 00:14:51,073
Madam.

101
00:14:52,892 --> 00:14:54,409
Gentlemen.

102
00:15:00,024 --> 00:15:01,625
Behold.

103
00:15:07,407 --> 00:15:09,508
Three steps down.

104
00:15:20,044 --> 00:15:22,479
Pray, view at your leisure.

105
00:15:56,164 --> 00:15:58,358
- Good day to you, Hannah.
- Good day to you, Aunt Sarah.

106
00:15:58,458 --> 00:16:00,944
- And how are you faring?
- Very well, thank you.

107
00:16:01,044 --> 00:16:03,404
- Are you coming in?
- I most certainly am. Is he at home?

108
00:16:03,504 --> 00:16:06,815
- He is. I'll tell him you're here.
- I can inform him myself, thank you kindly.

109
00:16:09,302 --> 00:16:12,997
- Good day to you, sir.
- And a very good day to you, Mrs D.

110
00:16:13,097 --> 00:16:15,333
And how do we find you
on this fair morning?

111
00:16:15,433 --> 00:16:17,669
Exceedingly preoccupied, madam.

112
00:16:17,769 --> 00:16:20,338
'Twas ever thus.
You've always been preoccupied.

113
00:16:20,438 --> 00:16:22,507
You're too preoccupied
for your own good, sir.

114
00:16:22,607 --> 00:16:24,467
Nothing comes from nothing, madam.

115
00:16:24,567 --> 00:16:27,043
And we have had nothing from you, sir.

116
00:16:28,780 --> 00:16:31,599
Evelina, Georgiana,
come and greet your father.

117
00:16:31,699 --> 00:16:35,186
Good day, Father.
May I present my child to you?

118
00:16:35,286 --> 00:16:37,480
- Your granddaughter.
- Rosalie Adelaide.

119
00:16:37,580 --> 00:16:39,774
Your only surviving grandchild.

120
00:16:39,874 --> 00:16:42,151
Georgiana, cease your dithering!

121
00:16:42,251 --> 00:16:44,821
May I suggest, Mrs D,
with the utmost respect,

122
00:16:44,921 --> 00:16:47,865
that you withdraw to the drawing room?

123
00:16:47,965 --> 00:16:50,952
Good day to you, Mrs Danby.
Would you care to step this way?

124
00:16:51,052 --> 00:16:52,704
Good day to you, Mr Turner.

125
00:16:52,804 --> 00:16:54,581
And will you be gracing us
with your presence

126
00:16:54,681 --> 00:16:56,708
in the withdrawing room, sir?

127
00:16:56,808 --> 00:16:59,836
I sincerely hope you will.
And, pray, do not keep us waiting.

128
00:16:59,936 --> 00:17:02,755
We have our own lives to lead.
Come along, daughters.

129
00:17:02,855 --> 00:17:06,249
The vapours in this room
are most noxious to a child's lungs.

130
00:17:17,453 --> 00:17:20,055
Ladies, pray, sit yourselves.

131
00:17:21,165 --> 00:17:22,400
Sarah, if you please.

132
00:17:22,500 --> 00:17:25,570
I shall be seated, William,
when it suits me and not before.

133
00:17:25,670 --> 00:17:27,187
So be it.

134
00:17:28,131 --> 00:17:30,992
- She's a pretty little thing.
- Thank you, Grandfather.

135
00:17:31,092 --> 00:17:33,453
- We are most proud of her.
- We are indeed.

136
00:17:33,553 --> 00:17:35,997
- Have you been out strolling, Aunt Sarah?
- No, niece.

137
00:17:36,097 --> 00:17:38,249
I've been to collect my pension
at Leicester Fields,

138
00:17:38,349 --> 00:17:41,121
- it being the first of the month.
- Indeed.

139
00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:46,049
- Your latest infant?
- To be sure, Father.

140
00:17:46,149 --> 00:17:48,635
- Of robust constitution?
- She has an excellent character.

141
00:17:48,735 --> 00:17:51,596
One must trust in providence.
Colour of eye?

142
00:17:51,696 --> 00:17:53,681
- Blue, as yourself.
- Splendid.

143
00:17:53,781 --> 00:17:55,516
Do not forget your other daughter, sir,

144
00:17:55,616 --> 00:17:58,102
whom you have deigned to neglect
these past two years.

145
00:17:58,202 --> 00:18:00,063
Sit down, Georgiana.

146
00:18:00,163 --> 00:18:02,607
- She is learning French.
- And music.

147
00:18:02,707 --> 00:18:04,525
She is having an education.

148
00:18:04,625 --> 00:18:08,655
Reading, writing, arithmetic
and geography with the globe.

149
00:18:08,755 --> 00:18:10,365
Sit up straight, Georgie!

150
00:18:10,465 --> 00:18:12,033
Say something in French.

151
00:18:12,133 --> 00:18:13,743
- Bonjour.
- Bonjour, Papa.

152
00:18:14,886 --> 00:18:16,454
- Are you keeping well?
- I am.

153
00:18:16,554 --> 00:18:18,456
I was not addressing you, sir.

154
00:18:18,556 --> 00:18:21,084
I enjoy good health, thank'ee.
And yourself?

155
00:18:21,184 --> 00:18:24,295
We are surviving as best we can
under the circumstances.

156
00:18:24,395 --> 00:18:28,466
- And what circumstances might they be?
- Straightened circumstances, sir.

157
00:18:28,566 --> 00:18:30,468
But we manage
to keep body and soul together,

158
00:18:30,568 --> 00:18:33,503
no thanks to your ungrateful son.

159
00:18:34,155 --> 00:18:36,974
How dare you take your leave of me,
Billy Turner!

160
00:18:37,074 --> 00:18:41,270
You insult me,
as you have always insulted me!

161
00:18:41,370 --> 00:18:42,888
Billy!

162
00:19:22,036 --> 00:19:23,354
Good evening, William.

163
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:26,389
Felicitations of the evening to you,
your Lordship.

164
00:19:27,208 --> 00:19:29,360
You faring well?

165
00:19:29,460 --> 00:19:33,072
Bit breathless. Been up to the farm.

166
00:19:36,259 --> 00:19:39,620
Watch the sunset,
say goodnight to the milkmaids.

167
00:19:40,888 --> 00:19:44,157
Any further consideration
to mechanicalising the thresher?

168
00:19:46,853 --> 00:19:48,713
You can't beat the old oxen.

169
00:19:48,813 --> 00:19:52,175
- Is that so, your Lordship?
- Indeed.

170
00:19:52,275 --> 00:19:55,470
We had a ploughing competition
last spring

171
00:19:55,570 --> 00:19:58,389
between teams of horses
and teams of oxen.

172
00:19:58,489 --> 00:20:00,516
- And the victor?
- The horses.

173
00:20:00,616 --> 00:20:04,145
- Well, the ox is a sluggish beast.
- Yes, but strong.

174
00:20:04,245 --> 00:20:06,856
With the added benefit, when it comes
to the end of its working life,

175
00:20:06,956 --> 00:20:08,890
it makes a very succulent dish.

176
00:20:10,376 --> 00:20:12,069
Unlike the horse.

177
00:20:12,169 --> 00:20:13,196
Good for glue.

178
00:20:13,296 --> 00:20:15,897
Ahem... your Lordship!

179
00:20:18,384 --> 00:20:21,621
- A very good evening to you, sir.
- Evening, Manners.

180
00:20:21,721 --> 00:20:23,726
Mr Turner.

181
00:20:24,974 --> 00:20:26,959
Are we not blessed by the heavens

182
00:20:27,059 --> 00:20:33,331
to witness so glorious
a crepuscular time of day?

183
00:20:35,943 --> 00:20:37,585
Imbecile.

184
00:20:41,532 --> 00:20:46,187
Continuing satisfaction
as to the arrangement, your Lordship?

185
00:20:46,287 --> 00:20:51,818
I think we have successfully achieved
the correct effect, William.

186
00:20:51,918 --> 00:20:53,518
Thank you.

187
00:20:55,630 --> 00:20:58,866
- Good evening, Nat.
- Oh, good evening, my Lord.

188
00:20:58,966 --> 00:21:03,454
- Good evening, Miss Coggins.
- Your Lordship, Turner.

189
00:21:03,554 --> 00:21:07,208
- How's your father faring, William?
- Oh, bearing up, your Lordship.

190
00:21:07,308 --> 00:21:09,961
Very gracious of you to inquire.

191
00:21:10,061 --> 00:21:14,006
We thought we'd lost him
this last winter, a very harsh one.

192
00:21:14,106 --> 00:21:16,759
He came through. He's a hardy old cove.

193
00:21:16,859 --> 00:21:18,460
Excellent.

194
00:21:19,070 --> 00:21:21,421
- See you at dinner.
- Indeed.

195
00:22:08,285 --> 00:22:10,605
Exceedingly beautiful.

196
00:22:10,705 --> 00:22:12,806
You are too kind.

197
00:22:13,290 --> 00:22:16,444
I'm familiar with the melody, but...

198
00:22:16,544 --> 00:22:18,613
Herr Beethoven.

199
00:22:18,713 --> 00:22:20,197
The "Pathétique".

200
00:22:28,139 --> 00:22:32,117
I possess a rare fondness
for... Henry Purcell.

201
00:22:33,769 --> 00:22:34,795
As do I.

202
00:22:40,901 --> 00:22:42,127
Yes.

203
00:22:47,992 --> 00:22:50,510
"Dido's Lament."

204
00:22:56,792 --> 00:23:00,321
May my wrongs create

205
00:23:00,421 --> 00:23:02,114
Create

206
00:23:02,214 --> 00:23:04,659
No sorrow...

207
00:23:04,759 --> 00:23:05,868
- Trouble.
- Trou...

208
00:23:05,968 --> 00:23:08,663
No trouble

209
00:23:08,763 --> 00:23:11,874
- In thy breast... thy breast...
- Thy breast.

210
00:23:11,974 --> 00:23:15,702
In thy brea... breast

211
00:23:20,733 --> 00:23:24,752
Remember me

212
00:23:27,198 --> 00:23:30,383
Remember me

213
00:23:33,329 --> 00:23:35,305
But...

214
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,192
- Ah! Forget my fate.
- Ah!

215
00:23:38,292 --> 00:23:41,936
Forget my fate

216
00:23:43,672 --> 00:23:48,985
Remember me

217
00:23:49,178 --> 00:23:51,497
But ah!

218
00:23:51,597 --> 00:23:55,700
Forget my fa...

219
00:23:57,144 --> 00:23:58,912
My fate

220
00:24:06,612 --> 00:24:08,755
A song of lost love.

221
00:24:10,449 --> 00:24:12,550
Indeed.

222
00:24:14,620 --> 00:24:16,522
I thank you.

223
00:24:16,622 --> 00:24:19,224
Thank you, Mr Turner.

224
00:24:21,460 --> 00:24:22,977
Madam.

225
00:25:01,292 --> 00:25:03,402
Mr Turner?

226
00:25:03,502 --> 00:25:06,447
I have often pondered,
might there be a distinction

227
00:25:06,547 --> 00:25:09,909
between the way you paint a sunrise
as opposed to a sunset?

228
00:25:10,009 --> 00:25:12,995
Oh, there is indeed, Lady Stuckley.

229
00:25:13,095 --> 00:25:16,082
Yeah, cos one is going up
whilst the other...

230
00:25:16,182 --> 00:25:18,459
- The other is going down!
- Oh, Eliza, do hush.

231
00:25:18,559 --> 00:25:22,880
And might it also be determined
by the angle of the light?

232
00:25:22,980 --> 00:25:25,716
Well, it's weather,

233
00:25:25,816 --> 00:25:27,176
vapour,

234
00:25:27,276 --> 00:25:28,427
wind,

235
00:25:28,527 --> 00:25:30,679
frangibility and such like.

236
00:25:30,779 --> 00:25:32,181
Eliza, look at his nails!

237
00:25:32,281 --> 00:25:36,060
Whilst you goddesses are languishing
in the kingdom of Hypnos,

238
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:40,189
I am up before the lark to witness Helios
popping his head above the parapet,

239
00:25:40,289 --> 00:25:44,225
with the only benefit
that the sunrise is not afflicted...

240
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:46,978
with diminishing light.

241
00:25:55,512 --> 00:25:57,331
- Carew.
- Oh!

242
00:25:57,431 --> 00:25:59,208
Turner!

243
00:25:59,308 --> 00:26:02,744
I'm by way of observing
poor Saint Sebastian here.

244
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,214
The artist is not known to me.

245
00:26:05,314 --> 00:26:06,632
- Flemish.
- Oh.

246
00:26:06,732 --> 00:26:09,718
Uncommonly capacious rump on the cherub.

247
00:26:09,818 --> 00:26:12,763
It might have gained in potency
with an increase of arrows.

248
00:26:12,863 --> 00:26:15,266
Well, yon celestial fellow
is tugging them all out.

249
00:26:15,366 --> 00:26:16,809
I can hardly bear to look upon it.

250
00:26:16,909 --> 00:26:21,856
The pain on his face,
the mark of resignation in it.

251
00:26:21,956 --> 00:26:24,108
'Tis a willing sacrifice, is it not?

252
00:26:24,208 --> 00:26:26,694
'Twas not how the poor soul perished.

253
00:26:26,794 --> 00:26:29,822
He was brought back to full health
by a good Samaritan.

254
00:26:29,922 --> 00:26:33,617
Then the heathens cudgelled him to death
and deposited him in a sewer.

255
00:26:33,717 --> 00:26:36,453
I would question
the veracity of that telling.

256
00:26:36,553 --> 00:26:38,988
No good deed goes unpunished.

257
00:26:43,686 --> 00:26:45,713
What a curious fate is mine.

258
00:26:47,356 --> 00:26:51,260
Last month in the King's Bench Prison
in the company of debtors,

259
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:53,929
this month a guest
of quality, rank and fashion.

260
00:26:54,029 --> 00:26:58,142
Rejoice, Haydon. You find yourself
in a veritable Bacchanalia.

261
00:26:58,242 --> 00:27:01,478
His Lordship keeps
a very fine wine cellar.

262
00:27:01,578 --> 00:27:03,772
Be sanguine, fill your boots.

263
00:27:03,872 --> 00:27:05,608
Might I ask you
to loan me some money, Turner?

264
00:27:05,708 --> 00:27:06,942
I beg your pardon?

265
00:27:07,042 --> 00:27:10,529
I am in dire and pressing need
of 100 pounds.

266
00:27:10,629 --> 00:27:11,822
Out of the question.

267
00:27:11,922 --> 00:27:14,533
My landlord,
he's a good man, a patient man,

268
00:27:14,633 --> 00:27:16,493
but he will not wait forever.

269
00:27:16,593 --> 00:27:19,413
I need to pay the wine merchant,
my colour man...

270
00:27:19,513 --> 00:27:22,208
And your dear wife, Mrs Haydon,
is she faring well?

271
00:27:22,308 --> 00:27:24,210
Mrs Haydon is presently with child.

272
00:27:24,310 --> 00:27:26,670
Well, you have my hearty
congratulations, Haydon.

273
00:27:26,770 --> 00:27:30,424
Congratulations are not in order.
I'm in torment.

274
00:27:30,524 --> 00:27:34,178
I am not unsympathetic
to your impecunity, Haydon.

275
00:27:34,278 --> 00:27:37,097
Therefore I can advance you 50 pounds.

276
00:27:37,197 --> 00:27:41,101
Turner, if 100 pounds will not spare me
from this predicament,

277
00:27:41,201 --> 00:27:43,562
what in Jesu's name can 50 pounds do?

278
00:27:43,662 --> 00:27:46,398
Then you are refusing
to accept the 50 pounds?

279
00:27:46,498 --> 00:27:49,809
- It is damned inadequate.
- I wish you good day, sir.

280
00:27:53,964 --> 00:27:55,616
- Turner?
- Hey, hey!

281
00:27:55,716 --> 00:27:57,993
My word is my bond.

282
00:27:58,093 --> 00:28:01,580
I may not yet be an Academician
but I am a gentleman.

283
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,541
I have a painting
presently with the King at Windsor.

284
00:28:04,641 --> 00:28:08,003
I am assured he will buy it from me
for 500 guineas or more.

285
00:28:08,103 --> 00:28:10,673
Furthermore, I have another
fine painting in mind,

286
00:28:10,773 --> 00:28:11,924
a companion piece,

287
00:28:12,024 --> 00:28:13,968
which he is most certain
to purchase in addition.

288
00:28:14,068 --> 00:28:16,178
Who has made these assurances?

289
00:28:16,278 --> 00:28:19,056
- The King's private secretary, Knighton.
- Oh.

290
00:28:19,156 --> 00:28:24,311
Well, I can furnish you
with five pounds this morning.

291
00:28:24,411 --> 00:28:25,688
Five pounds?

292
00:28:25,788 --> 00:28:29,108
50 pounds is not sufficient.
Five pounds is tantamount to an insult.

293
00:28:29,208 --> 00:28:32,361
Sir, I beseech you, brook your ire.

294
00:28:32,461 --> 00:28:35,030
If you attend my residence at London,

295
00:28:35,130 --> 00:28:37,482
I will loan you 50 pounds.

296
00:28:38,634 --> 00:28:40,735
In addition to the five?

297
00:28:41,637 --> 00:28:45,448
Mr Haydon, you are exceedingly tiresome.

298
00:28:48,685 --> 00:28:51,037
I am gratified.

299
00:28:52,272 --> 00:28:55,258
I humbly accept the 50 pounds.

300
00:28:56,944 --> 00:28:59,406
Might I find you at the same address?

301
00:29:02,366 --> 00:29:03,966
I may swim.

302
00:29:07,204 --> 00:29:10,399
"And the spirit immediately
drove him out into the wilderness."

303
00:29:10,499 --> 00:29:13,235
A tormented soul, for sure.

304
00:29:13,335 --> 00:29:16,739
I sympathise,
but he attributes all of his failures

305
00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:19,325
- to anything other than his own behaviour.
- Indeed.

306
00:29:19,425 --> 00:29:24,371
His complaint with life is as absurd
as that of a spoke in a wheel,

307
00:29:24,471 --> 00:29:28,042
railing against the motion
that it must of necessity partake.

308
00:29:28,142 --> 00:29:32,046
I concur.
He suffers the fate of Tantalus.

309
00:29:32,146 --> 00:29:35,132
He reaches for the fruit,
the branch moves.

310
00:29:35,232 --> 00:29:37,843
When he stoops to drink
the water goes down.

311
00:29:37,943 --> 00:29:40,721
If only he would consider
the wishes of his public

312
00:29:40,821 --> 00:29:44,183
rather than pursuing
his own peculiar convictions,

313
00:29:44,283 --> 00:29:45,434
it would be his salvation.

314
00:29:45,534 --> 00:29:48,854
And yet, my dear Beechey,
as his personal troubles increase,

315
00:29:48,954 --> 00:29:51,815
so the quality of his painting suffers.

316
00:29:51,915 --> 00:29:55,444
- But still, the man can paint.
- For sure, he can paint a Haydon.

317
00:29:55,544 --> 00:29:58,947
The return of one prodigal
is worth more than gold.

318
00:29:59,047 --> 00:30:03,369
An essential quality
for a prodigal, sir, is humility.

319
00:30:03,469 --> 00:30:05,788
He is a cracked pot.

320
00:30:05,888 --> 00:30:08,290
He's heading for a fall.

321
00:30:08,390 --> 00:30:11,543
Gentlemen, are we as one?

322
00:30:12,143 --> 00:30:15,830
Sadly... I cannot give him my support.

323
00:30:16,565 --> 00:30:19,093
He is not of our temper.

324
00:30:19,193 --> 00:30:22,054
Alas, the Academy
does not have need of Haydon

325
00:30:22,154 --> 00:30:25,506
so much as Haydon
has need of the Academy.

326
00:30:48,388 --> 00:30:54,670
Here the rose that decks thy door

327
00:30:54,770 --> 00:31:01,051
Here the thorn that spreads thy bower

328
00:31:01,151 --> 00:31:06,849
Here the willow on the moor

329
00:31:06,949 --> 00:31:09,476
The birds at rest

330
00:31:09,576 --> 00:31:12,845
Above thee

331
00:31:13,830 --> 00:31:19,945
Had they light of life to see

332
00:31:20,045 --> 00:31:26,285
Sense of soul like thee and me

333
00:31:26,385 --> 00:31:31,999
Soon might each a witness be

334
00:31:32,099 --> 00:31:34,835
How dotingly

335
00:31:34,935 --> 00:31:39,997
I love thee

336
00:31:40,482 --> 00:31:46,430
Here we meet too soon to part

337
00:31:46,530 --> 00:31:52,978
Here to leave would raise a smart

338
00:31:53,078 --> 00:31:58,275
Here I'll press thee to my heart

339
00:31:58,375 --> 00:32:01,737
Where none have place

340
00:32:01,837 --> 00:32:05,856
Above thee

341
00:32:23,317 --> 00:32:25,677
With your Lordship's permission,

342
00:32:25,777 --> 00:32:28,555
ladies and gentlemen,
our next offering, we hope,

343
00:32:28,655 --> 00:32:31,808
is of a somewhat more playful nature.

344
00:32:31,908 --> 00:32:34,603
- Playful as you wish.
- Thank you.

345
00:32:37,998 --> 00:32:39,056
Oh! No, it isn't!

346
00:32:57,267 --> 00:33:02,089
I'm a poor simple girl
so excuse me, sir, pray

347
00:33:02,189 --> 00:33:06,426
I am just one and twenty
the first of next May

348
00:33:06,526 --> 00:33:11,390
I never do harm but I tend to my farm

349
00:33:11,490 --> 00:33:17,762
I'm up early and late
and though humble my state

350
00:33:18,288 --> 00:33:23,068
I don't envy my betters
but bear 'em good will

351
00:33:23,168 --> 00:33:26,154
And I'm called Pretty Kitty

352
00:33:26,254 --> 00:33:28,532
Pretty Kitty

353
00:33:28,632 --> 00:33:30,784
Pretty Kitty

354
00:33:30,884 --> 00:33:33,652
The maid of the mill

355
00:33:38,475 --> 00:33:41,795
I have lovers in plenty
come hither to woo...

356
00:33:43,313 --> 00:33:48,051
If they will be so teasing,
pray, what can I do?

357
00:33:48,151 --> 00:33:52,806
I'm good-tempered and kind
and a youth to my mind

358
00:33:52,906 --> 00:33:59,470
Who is open and free
would be happy with me

359
00:34:00,414 --> 00:34:05,569
But they all are so stupid
that none of them will

360
00:34:05,669 --> 00:34:08,739
Pop the question to Kitty

361
00:34:08,839 --> 00:34:11,158
Pretty Kitty

362
00:34:11,258 --> 00:34:13,660
Pretty Kitty

363
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,570
The maid of the mill

364
00:36:02,369 --> 00:36:05,638
- Good day to you, sir.
- Good day to thee.

365
00:36:06,957 --> 00:36:08,900
You be a lodgings, then?

366
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,517
It be.

367
00:36:12,796 --> 00:36:16,533
- This chamber, 'tis available?
- It is, aye.

368
00:36:16,633 --> 00:36:18,400
May I peruse it?

369
00:36:27,143 --> 00:36:29,119
Mrs Booth!

370
00:36:35,610 --> 00:36:37,628
There be a gentleman.

371
00:36:39,614 --> 00:36:42,642
- Good day to you, sir.
- Good day to you, madam.

372
00:36:42,742 --> 00:36:44,728
- Are you seeking lodgings?
- Indeed I am.

373
00:36:44,828 --> 00:36:46,220
Here, Mr Booth.

374
00:36:47,914 --> 00:36:51,693
- Your top front, 'tis available?
- Maybe, sir, yes.

375
00:36:51,793 --> 00:36:55,980
- May I peruse it?
- Indeed, sir, if you'd care to follow me.

376
00:36:57,799 --> 00:36:59,868
- You just come off the boat?
- Indeed.

377
00:36:59,968 --> 00:37:01,578
- The Maggie or the Billy?
- The Maggie.

378
00:37:01,678 --> 00:37:05,656
- Oh, 'twas early today!
- We'd the best of the tide.

379
00:37:07,976 --> 00:37:09,419
There.

380
00:37:09,519 --> 00:37:12,506
- This be my better most chamber.
- Exceeding homely.

381
00:37:12,606 --> 00:37:14,090
Oh, I do thank you, sir.

382
00:37:14,190 --> 00:37:17,292
You're looking
at the finest view in Margate.

383
00:37:18,403 --> 00:37:20,806
They do say this town
be the first place in England

384
00:37:20,906 --> 00:37:22,641
that the sun do reach of a morning.

385
00:37:22,741 --> 00:37:26,645
Now, all my linen is freshly aired,
clean and sweet-smelling,

386
00:37:26,745 --> 00:37:30,097
and I can lay a fire for you,
should you require.

387
00:37:31,416 --> 00:37:33,058
Now, sir...

388
00:37:33,752 --> 00:37:37,155
my terms is one guinea for the week
with no meals

389
00:37:37,255 --> 00:37:39,324
or full board for
an extra 15 and sixpence.

390
00:37:39,424 --> 00:37:43,527
And I'm afraid I do have to ask
for a small deposit and a reference.

391
00:37:46,389 --> 00:37:49,992
- Five pound.
- 'Tis my reference and deposit.

392
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,421
Oh, I can't take this, sir.
It is far too much.

393
00:37:53,521 --> 00:37:57,374
Refund of balance on departure.
That suit you, madam?

394
00:37:58,193 --> 00:38:00,294
I do thank ye, sir.

395
00:38:01,237 --> 00:38:04,140
Well, I should introduce myself.
My name is Mrs Booth.

396
00:38:04,240 --> 00:38:07,060
- And you, sir?
- Beg your pardon?

397
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,437
- I was asking your name, sir.
- Mallard.

398
00:38:09,537 --> 00:38:11,606
Oh... Mr Mallard.

399
00:38:11,706 --> 00:38:14,860
Well, I do hope you'll be
most comfortable here, Mr Mallard.

400
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,070
Now, is there anything else
I can provide for you?

401
00:38:17,170 --> 00:38:20,073
A small bowl of water, madam,
if you'd be so kind.

402
00:38:20,173 --> 00:38:23,776
- Might that be a glass of water?
- No, a bowl.

403
00:38:24,469 --> 00:38:28,155
Very well, sir.
I shall bring that up for you.

404
00:38:43,613 --> 00:38:45,130
Yes?

405
00:38:47,242 --> 00:38:50,604
I found you a small bowl, sir.
I hope this do suit your requirements.

406
00:38:50,704 --> 00:38:51,646
Indeed.

407
00:38:51,746 --> 00:38:53,523
Where would you like
I should put it for you?

408
00:38:53,623 --> 00:38:56,558
Upon the window sill,
if you'd be so kind.

409
00:38:57,752 --> 00:39:01,781
Good. Oh, dear!
Do be coming along blowing now.

410
00:39:01,881 --> 00:39:06,703
Well... I shall serve your supper downstairs
in the parlour at six of the clock.

411
00:39:06,803 --> 00:39:08,705
And if you ever feel the need
of a bit of company

412
00:39:08,805 --> 00:39:11,541
you'd be more than welcome
to join Mr Booth and I in our kitchen.

413
00:39:11,641 --> 00:39:14,878
- I would not wish to impose, madam.
- Oh, not at all, Mr Mallard.

414
00:39:14,978 --> 00:39:17,496
We should be glad of your company.

415
00:39:36,750 --> 00:39:39,819
- I'll top up your ale, Mr Mallard.
- Thank you kindly, madam.

416
00:39:39,919 --> 00:39:41,863
I hope you're enjoying your supper.

417
00:39:41,963 --> 00:39:43,531
Oh, good.

418
00:39:43,631 --> 00:39:46,868
Some folk do find shackles
too salty for their taste.

419
00:39:46,968 --> 00:39:49,653
Can never be too salty for me, madam.

420
00:40:10,450 --> 00:40:12,060
There, Mr Mallard. This'll warm you up.

421
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,187
No, no, you sit yourself down.

422
00:40:14,287 --> 00:40:17,607
I can squeeze around here
just about these days.

423
00:40:17,707 --> 00:40:20,652
- So, you had a good walk, then?
- As far as Broadstairs and back.

424
00:40:20,752 --> 00:40:24,489
Oh, dear! That is a long way.
You'll sleep well tonight.

425
00:40:24,589 --> 00:40:26,116
Your very good health, madam, sir.

426
00:40:26,216 --> 00:40:29,327
- Very good health to you too, sir.
- Will you not take a drink yourself?

427
00:40:29,427 --> 00:40:31,997
I ain't touched a drop
this many a long year.

428
00:40:32,097 --> 00:40:34,541
He did used to enjoy a tipple,
though that were long before I knew him.

429
00:40:34,641 --> 00:40:37,335
- Man of the sea?
- He was, weren't he?

430
00:40:37,435 --> 00:40:41,256
- Ship's carpenter.
- Carpenter? Noble craft.

431
00:40:41,356 --> 00:40:43,049
What'd you ply?

432
00:40:43,149 --> 00:40:45,176
Whalers? Spicers?

433
00:40:45,276 --> 00:40:47,294
- Traders?
- Slavers.

434
00:40:48,321 --> 00:40:51,298
- For my sins.
- He don't like to talk about it, though.

435
00:40:52,492 --> 00:40:56,396
Africa, Zanzibar, the Indies.

436
00:40:56,496 --> 00:40:58,606
Such terrible sufferings I did see.

437
00:40:58,706 --> 00:41:00,942
Treated like animals, they was.

438
00:41:01,042 --> 00:41:02,986
Worse than.

439
00:41:03,086 --> 00:41:04,946
The howling sound of sorrow.

440
00:41:05,046 --> 00:41:06,563
Yes.

441
00:41:07,632 --> 00:41:11,077
- Changed my life, it did.
- Oh, it did there.

442
00:41:11,177 --> 00:41:14,321
Led me back to chapel.

443
00:41:16,891 --> 00:41:18,408
Humans.

444
00:41:18,977 --> 00:41:21,578
Humans can be dreadful cruel.

445
00:41:22,397 --> 00:41:26,541
I watch them boys down there in the sands
whipping them poor donkeys.

446
00:41:27,026 --> 00:41:29,137
Mind you, you're better off
being a donkey

447
00:41:29,237 --> 00:41:32,172
than them wretched souls
on the slave ships.

448
00:41:36,578 --> 00:41:39,481
So, are you familiar with Margate,
Mr Mallard?

449
00:41:39,581 --> 00:41:40,565
As a boy.

450
00:41:40,665 --> 00:41:42,400
Oh, there.
You come here on your holidays, then?

451
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:44,486
Schooling, two years.

452
00:41:44,586 --> 00:41:48,156
Oh, yes, Margate be
famous for its schools.

453
00:41:48,256 --> 00:41:50,700
- Coleman's.
- Oh.

454
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,202
Mr Coleman? I do remember he.

455
00:41:52,302 --> 00:41:55,112
- Up there by the Dane.
- Back of the old town.

456
00:41:59,058 --> 00:42:01,628
I lost two dear friends.

457
00:42:01,728 --> 00:42:04,923
- I am sorry.
- Scrofula.

458
00:42:05,023 --> 00:42:09,376
- Oh, yes. Terrible sickness.
- Aye.

459
00:42:14,199 --> 00:42:16,300
Long time ago.

460
00:42:32,217 --> 00:42:36,194
- Oh! Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon, madam.

461
00:42:36,638 --> 00:42:40,041
- It is Mrs Somerville.
- Yes, you are expected.

462
00:42:40,141 --> 00:42:42,242
Thank you most kindly.

463
00:42:42,644 --> 00:42:45,579
Oh, what an elegant residence.

464
00:42:46,564 --> 00:42:48,800
Have you come far, Mrs Somerville?

465
00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:52,512
Oh, yes, indeed.
All the way from Chelsea.

466
00:42:52,612 --> 00:42:54,973
I took the steamer to Westminster,
about an hour.

467
00:42:55,073 --> 00:42:58,059
- Was the river busy?
- Extremely.

468
00:42:58,159 --> 00:43:00,895
You can see the whole world
on the Thames.

469
00:43:00,995 --> 00:43:03,773
- Mrs Somerville.
- Oh, good afternoon, Mr Turner.

470
00:43:03,873 --> 00:43:06,109
My apologies if I have forced you
to wait upon me.

471
00:43:06,209 --> 00:43:10,947
Oh, not at all. I have enjoyed
a most pleasant interlude with your father.

472
00:43:11,047 --> 00:43:13,992
- You find yourself well?
- Passing fair, thank you. And you?

473
00:43:14,092 --> 00:43:16,411
Indeed. Dr Somerville likewise?

474
00:43:16,511 --> 00:43:21,573
Oh, yes, he's much engaged
in administering to the poor veterans.

475
00:43:22,100 --> 00:43:24,252
Well, now, it's a beautiful sunny day,

476
00:43:24,352 --> 00:43:27,213
just perfect for our experiment.

477
00:43:27,313 --> 00:43:29,424
I have everything I need
here in my wee bag.

478
00:43:29,524 --> 00:43:31,634
Are we going to witness an explosion?

479
00:43:31,734 --> 00:43:33,553
Oh, goodness me! No, I hope not.

480
00:43:33,653 --> 00:43:35,555
I'm astounded
you have all your paraphernalia

481
00:43:35,655 --> 00:43:38,850
- contained in yon small pouch.
- Indeed it is, Mr Turner.

482
00:43:38,950 --> 00:43:40,967
Everything except God's good sunlight.

483
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,647
Daddy, Mrs Somerville
is a natural philosopher.

484
00:43:44,747 --> 00:43:48,818
- Is she, now?
- Mathematician, astronomer, geologist.

485
00:43:48,918 --> 00:43:51,696
The universe is a wondrous thing,
is it not, Mr Turner?

486
00:43:51,796 --> 00:43:53,448
It is, to be sure.

487
00:43:53,548 --> 00:43:54,991
The planets and the stars,

488
00:43:55,091 --> 00:43:57,202
the oceans and the tides,

489
00:43:57,302 --> 00:43:59,704
the clouds and the air,

490
00:43:59,804 --> 00:44:01,915
mountains, volcanoes...

491
00:44:02,015 --> 00:44:04,709
The tides be subject
to the effect of the moon.

492
00:44:04,809 --> 00:44:08,713
Quite so,
the mysterious force of gravity.

493
00:44:08,813 --> 00:44:10,872
It is my strong belief

494
00:44:11,607 --> 00:44:14,376
that all things on this earth
are connected.

495
00:44:15,486 --> 00:44:18,505
- Nothing exists in isolation.
- Indeed.

496
00:44:19,824 --> 00:44:23,311
The rain falls, the sun shines

497
00:44:23,411 --> 00:44:25,355
and the onions grow.

498
00:44:25,455 --> 00:44:26,522
Oh, yes.

499
00:44:26,622 --> 00:44:29,067
Daddy likes to affect the pretence
of being a dunce.

500
00:44:29,167 --> 00:44:30,652
He is in fact a man of high intellect.

501
00:44:30,752 --> 00:44:33,488
- He taught me how to read and write.
- Is that so?

502
00:44:33,588 --> 00:44:38,201
- Education is an important thing.
- It is indeed, most important for everyone.

503
00:44:38,301 --> 00:44:41,871
I myself am presently engaged
in the tutoring of my children.

504
00:44:41,971 --> 00:44:43,539
That is indeed commendable.

505
00:44:43,639 --> 00:44:45,917
It is a privilege
that was not afforded to me.

506
00:44:46,017 --> 00:44:49,161
I am an uneducated,
self-taught Scotch woman.

507
00:44:49,937 --> 00:44:52,465
Mrs Somerville, you are what you are.

508
00:44:52,565 --> 00:44:54,467
- As are we, Daddy.
- True.

509
00:44:54,567 --> 00:44:56,209
Thank you.

510
00:44:57,612 --> 00:44:59,514
And what was your profession, Mr Turner?

511
00:44:59,614 --> 00:45:01,891
Daddy was the finest barber
in Covent Garden.

512
00:45:01,991 --> 00:45:04,269
I had some success in the business.

513
00:45:04,369 --> 00:45:05,603
Wig maker.

514
00:45:05,703 --> 00:45:08,314
He was a master
of the razor and the brush.

515
00:45:08,414 --> 00:45:10,441
You're the master of the brush now,
Mr Turner.

516
00:45:10,541 --> 00:45:11,651
Well...

517
00:45:11,751 --> 00:45:14,237
My little lad could draw
afore he could read and write.

518
00:45:14,337 --> 00:45:17,481
Sat in the corner of the shop,
scratching away with the chalk and charcoal.

519
00:45:18,007 --> 00:45:19,617
I'd stick his pictures in the window.

520
00:45:19,717 --> 00:45:20,994
And sell 'em, all of 'em.

521
00:45:21,094 --> 00:45:23,445
For two or three shillings apiece
on occasion.

522
00:45:24,055 --> 00:45:25,748
Do you have children
yourself, Mr Turner?

523
00:45:25,848 --> 00:45:28,200
I do not, Mrs Somerville.

524
00:45:32,855 --> 00:45:34,789
Thank you, Mr Turner.

525
00:45:35,608 --> 00:45:37,927
- Have you ever seen a prism?
- I have not.

526
00:45:40,655 --> 00:45:42,339
There it is.

527
00:45:43,908 --> 00:45:46,561
That is a thing of beauty.

528
00:45:46,661 --> 00:45:50,523
Shortly you shall witness
a rainbow passing through it.

529
00:45:50,623 --> 00:45:53,693
Sir Isaac Newton, Daddy.

530
00:45:53,793 --> 00:45:57,697
Gentlemen, might I request
that you close the shutters, please?

531
00:45:57,797 --> 00:45:59,731
Daddy.

532
00:46:02,260 --> 00:46:05,153
Tell us when to cease, Mrs Somerville.

533
00:46:06,055 --> 00:46:08,698
We need to create an aperture...

534
00:46:09,851 --> 00:46:12,118
to strengthen the colours.

535
00:46:15,106 --> 00:46:16,382
- There.
- Daddy!

536
00:46:16,482 --> 00:46:19,761
- Aha!
- Let us put the paper in place.

537
00:46:19,861 --> 00:46:23,514
- Daddy, some tacks for Mrs Somerville.
- No, no tacks, Mr Turner.

538
00:46:23,614 --> 00:46:26,341
The metal could contaminate
the experiment.

539
00:46:28,161 --> 00:46:30,345
A wee nub of wax.

540
00:46:35,168 --> 00:46:36,560
Paper.

541
00:46:37,628 --> 00:46:39,655
And what is the purpose
of the small piece of paper?

542
00:46:39,755 --> 00:46:45,578
I shall cover the bottom half of the needle
so that it is not exposed.

543
00:46:49,390 --> 00:46:51,751
And what is it you are about now,
Mrs Somerville?

544
00:46:51,851 --> 00:46:54,703
You'll have to wait and see, won't you?

545
00:46:58,983 --> 00:47:01,344
Daddy, I wager that is the first time

546
00:47:01,444 --> 00:47:03,805
you've witnessed a hammer
being produced from a lady's reticule.

547
00:47:03,905 --> 00:47:05,714
For certain 'tis!

548
00:47:13,831 --> 00:47:16,025
You have the arm of a blacksmith,
Mrs Somerville.

549
00:47:20,087 --> 00:47:21,605
There, now.

550
00:47:23,758 --> 00:47:27,110
That has thrown
all those wee particles into chaos.

551
00:47:27,887 --> 00:47:30,071
Particles into chaos.

552
00:47:31,015 --> 00:47:34,502
What is the element contained
within the violet light

553
00:47:34,602 --> 00:47:36,254
such as magnetises the material?

554
00:47:36,354 --> 00:47:40,133
That is what, as yet, Mr Turner,
I do not know.

555
00:47:40,233 --> 00:47:43,177
- The majesty of mystery.
- Indeed.

556
00:47:43,277 --> 00:47:45,805
Now, let us allow nature
to take its course.

557
00:47:45,905 --> 00:47:49,100
Although we will have to adjust
the position of the easel from time to time.

558
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:52,520
Indeed, as mighty Apollo moves
across his heavenly tract.

559
00:47:52,620 --> 00:47:54,105
Yes!

560
00:47:54,205 --> 00:47:56,732
- Three steps down, Mrs Somerville.
- Take care.

561
00:47:56,832 --> 00:47:59,768
Oh, my goodness me!

562
00:48:00,336 --> 00:48:03,030
Oh, Mr Turner, I am quite overwhelmed.

563
00:48:03,130 --> 00:48:05,241
Do as you wish, view as you wish.

564
00:48:05,341 --> 00:48:08,995
Oh, my!
These are breathtaking, are they not?

565
00:48:09,095 --> 00:48:12,039
My dear late father
would have much appreciated them.

566
00:48:12,139 --> 00:48:15,668
- A naval man, I believe.
- Indeed, he was a vice admiral.

567
00:48:15,768 --> 00:48:19,046
- We have the Battle of Trafalgar over here.
- Was he there, your father?

568
00:48:19,146 --> 00:48:21,748
Er, no, he was at Camperdown.

569
00:48:22,608 --> 00:48:25,261
- Lord Nelson's flagship, the Victory.
- Indeed.

570
00:48:25,361 --> 00:48:28,181
- It's a sketch for the painting.
- Oh?

571
00:48:28,281 --> 00:48:30,516
- Commissioned by the King.
- Is that so?

572
00:48:30,616 --> 00:48:32,643
Two years in the making.

573
00:48:32,743 --> 00:48:35,229
- He didn't like it.
- Did he not?

574
00:48:35,329 --> 00:48:36,689
- No.
- Too good for him.

575
00:48:38,749 --> 00:48:40,318
Two years!

576
00:48:40,418 --> 00:48:42,862
It takes me only half an hour
to paint a picture.

577
00:48:42,962 --> 00:48:44,697
So you are an artist, Mrs Somerville?

578
00:48:44,797 --> 00:48:48,784
Oh, I don't think we can quite use that term
in the presence of Mr Turner.

579
00:48:48,884 --> 00:48:52,079
Nevertheless, Daddy,
Mrs Somerville is a fine watercolourist.

580
00:48:52,179 --> 00:48:54,916
Oh, you flatter me.
Oh, what an epic storm scene!

581
00:48:55,016 --> 00:48:57,659
Rock crushing a house in Switzerland.

582
00:48:58,394 --> 00:49:00,995
Calais sands, women digging for bait.

583
00:49:02,273 --> 00:49:03,790
I don't care for that much.

584
00:49:08,779 --> 00:49:11,140
Oh, my! What have we here?

585
00:49:11,240 --> 00:49:14,143
Oh, it's Hannibal crossing the Alps.

586
00:49:14,243 --> 00:49:16,771
Do you see the elephant?

587
00:49:16,871 --> 00:49:20,390
- An elephant?
- He's in there somewhere.

588
00:49:21,208 --> 00:49:25,061
- Are you teasing me, Mr Turner?
- By no means, madam.

589
00:49:40,394 --> 00:49:42,046
Can you find him?

590
00:49:42,146 --> 00:49:44,581
Well, no, I cannot.

591
00:49:45,149 --> 00:49:46,750
There he is.

592
00:49:47,485 --> 00:49:50,846
- Oh! Ha, ha!
- Daddy's little jest.

593
00:49:53,407 --> 00:49:56,602
Oh, it is a terrifying scene!

594
00:49:56,702 --> 00:49:59,188
The elements dwarfing the elephants.

595
00:49:59,288 --> 00:50:00,889
Hubris.

596
00:50:06,170 --> 00:50:07,687
There.

597
00:50:08,339 --> 00:50:11,274
Shall I make it do a wee dance?

598
00:50:12,051 --> 00:50:15,538
So, the end of the needle
that was exposed to the violet light

599
00:50:15,638 --> 00:50:17,415
has produced a magnetic north pole.

600
00:50:17,515 --> 00:50:19,917
- Like a compass?
- Exactly so.

601
00:50:20,017 --> 00:50:22,878
Whereas, Mr Turner,
had I done the same experiment

602
00:50:22,978 --> 00:50:24,672
using the red end of the spectrum,

603
00:50:24,772 --> 00:50:27,133
this needle would not
have been magnetised.

604
00:50:27,233 --> 00:50:31,596
I have, from time to time, attempted it
with the green and the blue,

605
00:50:31,696 --> 00:50:34,765
and it has succeeded on occasion
but not consistently.

606
00:50:34,865 --> 00:50:37,175
Colour is contradictory.

607
00:50:37,910 --> 00:50:41,147
Well, is it, Mr Turner?

608
00:50:41,247 --> 00:50:42,648
Colour is absolute.

609
00:50:42,748 --> 00:50:46,267
Sublime but contradictory
yet harmonious.

610
00:50:46,877 --> 00:50:49,322
You are a man of great vision,
Mr Turner.

611
00:50:50,631 --> 00:50:54,192
The universe is chaotic
and you make us see it.

612
00:50:55,344 --> 00:50:57,079
In natural philosophy

613
00:50:57,179 --> 00:51:00,583
nothing can ever be proved,
only disproved.

614
00:51:00,683 --> 00:51:03,878
The purity of your prism,
the contamination of my palette.

615
00:51:03,978 --> 00:51:07,214
Natural light, blackness.

616
00:51:07,314 --> 00:51:10,416
White is the power of good,
black is the devil.

617
00:51:19,410 --> 00:51:25,191
Transparent bodies depend so much
upon what is opposed to them,

618
00:51:25,291 --> 00:51:27,068
having no colour,

619
00:51:27,168 --> 00:51:29,519
that they take every one offered.

620
00:51:35,551 --> 00:51:38,496
Water often possesses colour

621
00:51:38,596 --> 00:51:41,823
but colour is not imparted
to its reflections...

622
00:51:42,808 --> 00:51:46,035
or refractions like a coloured glass

623
00:51:47,354 --> 00:51:52,125
when everything seen
is vitiated by that colour.

624
00:51:54,153 --> 00:51:57,973
Even the purest mirror
gives a tone to the sky

625
00:51:58,073 --> 00:52:00,309
and as the colour is increased,

626
00:52:00,409 --> 00:52:03,688
it destroys
all the colour of nature by its...

627
00:52:03,788 --> 00:52:06,065
by its own dullness,

628
00:52:06,165 --> 00:52:11,352
while water often seems
to challenge the sky for...

629
00:52:13,756 --> 00:52:16,174
brightness and...

630
00:52:16,759 --> 00:52:19,870
and when possessing colour...

631
00:52:19,970 --> 00:52:24,166
its reflections of objects
appear more possible.

632
00:52:24,266 --> 00:52:28,119
In short, their effects
are like their qualities.

633
00:52:29,104 --> 00:52:32,925
One repels the immediate ray.

634
00:52:33,025 --> 00:52:34,885
The other absorbs it.

635
00:52:34,985 --> 00:52:38,848
The one transparent while the mirror...

636
00:52:38,948 --> 00:52:41,257
is opa... is opaque.

637
00:52:47,581 --> 00:52:50,516
How can they appear the same?

638
00:53:51,020 --> 00:53:53,830
Daddy, cease your labour.
Go and sit in your chair.

639
00:53:54,690 --> 00:53:56,133
I can't leave this.

640
00:53:56,233 --> 00:53:59,460
It'll keep for the half-hour.
Go and peruse your newspaper.

641
00:54:06,535 --> 00:54:08,094
Do not stoop.

642
00:54:12,541 --> 00:54:14,308
Go and rest your bones.

643
00:55:01,924 --> 00:55:04,108
- What's occurring?
- He's struggling.

644
00:55:05,302 --> 00:55:07,496
Are you rattling?

645
00:55:07,596 --> 00:55:09,447
Come on, bring it up.

646
00:55:24,020 --> 00:55:26,747
No, indeed not, sir.

647
00:55:27,783 --> 00:55:32,470
I shall. I shall tell her.
I will tell her.

648
00:55:35,541 --> 00:55:38,434
I ought to have told her afore.

649
00:55:39,837 --> 00:55:42,990
- Years ago.
- Who do you speak of, Daddy?

650
00:55:43,090 --> 00:55:45,108
Afore they took her away.

651
00:55:46,427 --> 00:55:50,488
Eastertide, the good Lord
took her from us.

652
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:58,663
We did not do right by her, poor woman.

653
00:56:00,065 --> 00:56:01,958
She was a lunatic.

654
00:56:03,986 --> 00:56:05,962
We didn't have no choice, Daddy.

655
00:56:08,073 --> 00:56:11,592
She made our life a living hell.

656
00:56:12,453 --> 00:56:17,348
She was your mother. Curse her!

657
00:56:19,626 --> 00:56:23,354
Show her due respect, boy.

658
00:56:24,465 --> 00:56:27,534
The bitch!

659
00:56:42,399 --> 00:56:44,584
My little lad.

660
00:56:46,904 --> 00:56:48,671
Daddy.

661
00:58:03,063 --> 00:58:05,716
- Good afternoon, sir.
- Good day to you, madam.

662
00:58:05,816 --> 00:58:08,677
- It's been a long while, ain't it?
- Yeah.

663
00:58:08,777 --> 00:58:12,389
- May I offer you a refreshment?
- No, thank you kindly.

664
00:58:12,489 --> 00:58:15,017
- Champagne?
- No, no.

665
00:58:15,117 --> 00:58:17,019
No mind, sir,

666
00:58:17,119 --> 00:58:21,356
I regret all my lovely girls are occupied
but we do have young Eliza here

667
00:58:21,456 --> 00:58:24,902
who I do not believe
you've had the pleasure of previous.

668
00:58:26,879 --> 00:58:30,908
She has a pleasing countenance,
when she smiles.

669
00:58:31,008 --> 00:58:33,869
- Good day, sir.
- Good day to you, miss.

670
00:58:33,969 --> 00:58:36,320
Show the gentleman
to your chamber, dear.

671
00:58:37,890 --> 00:58:39,532
It's this way, sir.

672
00:59:01,288 --> 00:59:03,139
Very fine.

673
00:59:03,832 --> 00:59:05,766
I do extras.

674
00:59:06,543 --> 00:59:08,362
No, no, no, no, no.

675
00:59:08,462 --> 00:59:10,313
Remove the bodice.

676
00:59:17,971 --> 00:59:19,780
Expose your breasts.

677
00:59:20,974 --> 00:59:22,835
No, no... no.

678
00:59:22,935 --> 00:59:24,660
Lay upon the bed.

679
00:59:30,192 --> 00:59:32,386
Part your legs.

680
00:59:32,486 --> 00:59:33,804
Crook your knee.

681
00:59:33,904 --> 00:59:35,838
Right arm as thus.

682
00:59:36,949 --> 00:59:40,343
Hand upon the head. No... as in despair.

683
01:00:18,573 --> 01:00:20,091
Yes.

684
01:00:35,257 --> 01:00:38,651
Eliza... or Liza?

685
01:00:39,845 --> 01:00:41,445
Eliza.

686
01:00:42,806 --> 01:00:44,407
Or Liza.

687
01:00:45,684 --> 01:00:48,869
- Your age?
- Twenty-two, sir.

688
01:00:50,939 --> 01:00:52,456
Twenty-two?

689
01:01:51,375 --> 01:01:54,059
Would you like something to drink, sir?

690
01:01:57,381 --> 01:02:00,649
No... thank you, miss.

691
01:02:02,636 --> 01:02:04,278
Now...

692
01:02:05,013 --> 01:02:07,239
expose your breasts.

693
01:06:47,253 --> 01:06:49,114
- Good day, sir.
- Madam.

694
01:06:49,214 --> 01:06:51,116
- You be seeking lodgings?
- Indeed.

695
01:06:51,216 --> 01:06:53,326
Oh... I do know'ee.

696
01:06:53,426 --> 01:06:56,239
Er, Mr Duckworth.

697
01:06:56,721 --> 01:07:00,000
- Mallard.
- Oh, Mr Mallard. Of course!

698
01:07:00,100 --> 01:07:01,918
Well, you be lucky. The room is free.

699
01:07:02,018 --> 01:07:04,045
- Splendid.
- Well, do come in.

700
01:07:04,145 --> 01:07:07,790
There. Oh, it be most pleasant
to see you again.

701
01:07:16,741 --> 01:07:20,145
Oh, Mr Mallard.
Everything satisfactory in your chamber?

702
01:07:20,245 --> 01:07:21,271
Most agreeable.

703
01:07:21,371 --> 01:07:24,149
Good. Well, you sit there
and make yourself comfy.

704
01:07:24,249 --> 01:07:27,319
I expect you'll be tired
after your journey.

705
01:07:27,419 --> 01:07:30,447
Now, I have not poured your tea
for it is fresh in the pot.

706
01:07:30,547 --> 01:07:32,949
No matter. Suits me, brewed and stewed.

707
01:07:34,676 --> 01:07:38,455
Now, that I do remember, Mr Mallard.
And will you take a biscuit?

708
01:07:38,555 --> 01:07:41,875
No, thank you, madam.
I purchased a potato on the boat.

709
01:07:41,975 --> 01:07:44,878
I should think that were all
you could manage on the steamer.

710
01:07:44,978 --> 01:07:46,921
It was somewhat turbulent.

711
01:07:47,021 --> 01:07:49,466
I shall leave you
to take your refreshment.

712
01:07:49,566 --> 01:07:53,043
Madam, may I apprehend you
with my condolences?

713
01:07:55,321 --> 01:07:56,431
I do thank you, sir.

714
01:07:56,531 --> 01:08:00,435
My sympathies, commiserations,
for the loss of your dear departed man.

715
01:08:00,535 --> 01:08:02,970
Well, he were a dear man.

716
01:08:05,915 --> 01:08:10,769
'Tis twice in my life now
I have found myself a widow.

717
01:08:12,046 --> 01:08:15,700
My first husband were taken from me
when I was but a young woman.

718
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:17,369
How was he taken?

719
01:08:17,469 --> 01:08:20,246
He were foying over there
on Goodwin Sands.

720
01:08:20,346 --> 01:08:24,575
- A life-saver.
- Aye. He did save many a life.

721
01:08:25,101 --> 01:08:29,130
But in the end...
he could not save his own.

722
01:08:29,230 --> 01:08:32,165
We never did find him, poor soul.

723
01:08:33,276 --> 01:08:37,847
My boy were eight year old
when he did lose his father.

724
01:08:37,947 --> 01:08:39,766
I was eight
when I lost my little sister.

725
01:08:39,866 --> 01:08:42,175
Oh? Oh, I am sorry.

726
01:08:46,623 --> 01:08:49,725
Well... 'tis the way of things.

727
01:08:56,883 --> 01:09:00,319
You still making
your nice little pictures, Mr Mallard?

728
01:09:05,475 --> 01:09:06,575
There.

729
01:09:27,372 --> 01:09:29,107
Mr Billy.

730
01:09:33,545 --> 01:09:35,103
Welcome home.

731
01:09:36,548 --> 01:09:38,231
Dirty water.

732
01:09:48,601 --> 01:09:50,202
Pleasant trip?

733
01:09:53,648 --> 01:09:55,175
Your order came.

734
01:09:55,275 --> 01:09:59,012
- Did he send the cobalt blue?
- I put it in a jar.

735
01:09:59,112 --> 01:10:02,056
Chrome yellow, scarlet lake, lead white.

736
01:10:02,156 --> 01:10:05,185
- Canvases?
- He put 'em downstairs for me.

737
01:10:05,285 --> 01:10:08,146
Two six-by-fours, three four-by-threes.

738
01:10:08,246 --> 01:10:10,940
- Megilp?
- Next week.

739
01:10:15,712 --> 01:10:17,813
Was it a pleasant trip?

740
01:10:50,204 --> 01:10:53,233
- Good morning, Mr Turner.
- Martin, Sir Billy, Gussy.

741
01:10:53,333 --> 01:10:55,610
- Good day to you, Billy.
- Delighted you could join us.

742
01:10:55,710 --> 01:10:57,946
Damn fine spectacle this year, Billy.

743
01:11:00,757 --> 01:11:02,784
A very fine day to you, Mr Stothard!

744
01:11:02,884 --> 01:11:04,619
What? Oh!

745
01:11:04,719 --> 01:11:06,653
Mr Turner, sir!

746
01:11:13,186 --> 01:11:15,746
- Constable.
- Turner.

747
01:11:21,527 --> 01:11:24,138
- Jonesy, Carlo.
- William.

748
01:11:24,238 --> 01:11:25,598
The Hanging Committee.

749
01:11:25,698 --> 01:11:27,892
- You approve?
- 'Tis well hung.

750
01:11:27,992 --> 01:11:30,343
- Grazie.
- Prego.

751
01:11:32,121 --> 01:11:34,399
Would everything be
to your satisfaction, Mr Turner?

752
01:11:34,499 --> 01:11:36,442
It is indeed, Mr President.

753
01:11:36,542 --> 01:11:40,071
- 'Tis a splendid cornucopia.
- Cornucopia!

754
01:11:40,171 --> 01:11:43,491
- Good morning, Turner.
- Good morning to you, Mr Leslie.

755
01:11:43,591 --> 01:11:45,285
- Rabbie.
- Good morning, Mr Turner.

756
01:11:45,385 --> 01:11:46,995
My other piece, where is it located?

757
01:11:47,095 --> 01:11:50,081
- We placed it in the anteroom.
- The anteroom.

758
01:11:53,142 --> 01:11:55,368
- Mr Carew!
- Turner!

759
01:11:56,938 --> 01:11:59,664
- Stanny.
- Hello, Mr Turner, sir.

760
01:12:00,650 --> 01:12:03,094
- Is it for His Majesty?
- Indeed.

761
01:12:03,194 --> 01:12:06,546
- I hope it meets his expectations.
- It will.

762
01:12:07,281 --> 01:12:09,591
- Grout.
- Mr Turner.

763
01:12:14,914 --> 01:12:19,569
- Sir John Soane!
- J.M.W. Turner, esquire!

764
01:12:19,669 --> 01:12:21,654
- As I live and breathe.
- My dear friend.

765
01:12:21,754 --> 01:12:23,364
Find yourself well, John?

766
01:12:23,464 --> 01:12:25,241
- Relishing the day.
- Capital.

767
01:12:25,341 --> 01:12:27,577
Only now I was admiring your seascape.

768
01:12:27,677 --> 01:12:29,203
There she is.

769
01:12:29,303 --> 01:12:32,332
- Mr Pickersgill.
- Good morning, William.

770
01:12:33,933 --> 01:12:35,877
He has the air of despondency upon him.

771
01:12:35,977 --> 01:12:38,296
- He is slighted.
- For why?

772
01:12:38,396 --> 01:12:40,924
Yet again in the anteroom.

773
01:12:41,024 --> 01:12:44,761
They hang us where they will, Pickers.
Take a guzzle of brown sherry.

774
01:12:44,861 --> 01:12:47,639
Damn fine storm you have there, Billy.

775
01:12:47,739 --> 01:12:50,423
Nimbus, Sir Billy, nimbus.

776
01:12:55,580 --> 01:12:58,098
Oh, beg your pardon, sir.

777
01:13:18,895 --> 01:13:22,674
- Carlo the Salamander.
- Amico mio.

778
01:13:22,774 --> 01:13:25,385
- Harmony and unity, William
- Chemise.

779
01:13:25,485 --> 01:13:27,586
- Chemise?
- Lower.

780
01:13:30,031 --> 01:13:31,808
- Molto bene.
- Jonesy!

781
01:13:31,908 --> 01:13:33,726
- I want you to see...
- What?

782
01:13:33,826 --> 01:13:35,436
- Remember?
- Remind me.

783
01:13:35,536 --> 01:13:37,438
- Pisa.
- Oh, Pisa!

784
01:13:37,538 --> 01:13:39,315
- Fine around there, Gussy.
- You think so?

785
01:13:39,415 --> 01:13:41,391
Oh, yeah.

786
01:13:43,753 --> 01:13:46,146
- Nelson?
- With two arms.

787
01:13:49,634 --> 01:13:51,327
- Mr Leslie.
- Turner.

788
01:13:51,427 --> 01:13:55,947
Little maid, gamboge gown,
left foot instep, touch of highlight.

789
01:13:56,849 --> 01:13:58,084
Thank you, Turner.

790
01:13:58,184 --> 01:14:00,920
Paintings always benefit his remarks.

791
01:14:01,020 --> 01:14:03,798
Carew! This your man?

792
01:14:03,898 --> 01:14:05,466
'Tis he.

793
01:14:05,566 --> 01:14:08,219
Sports an elegant nostril,
does he not, Sir John?

794
01:14:08,319 --> 01:14:11,264
- Splendid nostrils.
- Thank you kindly.

795
01:14:11,364 --> 01:14:12,473
What did you say?

796
01:14:12,573 --> 01:14:15,101
Elegant pair of nostrils, Mr Stothard!

797
01:14:15,201 --> 01:14:17,302
Oh, yes. Yes, indeed.

798
01:15:04,250 --> 01:15:06,444
Why on earth would he go and do that?

799
01:15:06,544 --> 01:15:10,156
Oh, I believe Mr Turner knows
well enough what he's doing, Sir Martin.

800
01:15:10,256 --> 01:15:12,492
Do you think so?

801
01:15:12,592 --> 01:15:16,329
- He's ruined a masterpiece.
- I think not.

802
01:15:16,429 --> 01:15:18,915
That's too bad. That's too bad.

803
01:15:20,183 --> 01:15:22,085
He's been here and fired a gun.

804
01:15:22,185 --> 01:15:24,212
Oh, no, no.

805
01:15:24,312 --> 01:15:27,548
John, you must not upset
yourself like this.

806
01:15:29,692 --> 01:15:31,761
The man's impossible.

807
01:15:31,861 --> 01:15:34,597
I mean, why would he go
and destroy a perfectly good painting?

808
01:15:34,697 --> 01:15:36,715
Sheer mockery.

809
01:15:38,284 --> 01:15:40,394
My sympathy is with Constable.

810
01:15:40,494 --> 01:15:44,023
He's got a damn fine picture here
and he's made a damn mockery of it.

811
01:15:44,123 --> 01:15:46,859
There's method
in the madness, gentlemen.

812
01:15:46,959 --> 01:15:50,238
- If that is method, it is pure madness.
- But, what is it? Is it...

813
01:15:50,338 --> 01:15:53,231
Oh, do stop that prattling laughter,
Mr Carew!

814
01:15:54,258 --> 01:15:57,203
I wager we've not seen
the end of this, gentlemen.

815
01:15:57,303 --> 01:15:58,945
He may surprise us yet.

816
01:16:00,973 --> 01:16:02,657
Haydon.

817
01:16:03,434 --> 01:16:04,576
Hey!

818
01:16:14,403 --> 01:16:18,631
Mr Turner. We were just wondering if...

819
01:16:22,828 --> 01:16:24,564
I said he wasn't finished.

820
01:16:46,435 --> 01:16:48,963
It's a buoy! Bravo!

821
01:16:49,063 --> 01:16:51,257
Bravo! Marvellous!

822
01:16:56,279 --> 01:16:58,389
Can you explain your rendition?

823
01:16:58,489 --> 01:17:00,683
It needs no explanation, sir.

824
01:17:00,783 --> 01:17:03,811
'Tis our Redeemer's conveyance
into Jerusalem, plain as day.

825
01:17:03,911 --> 01:17:05,479
Blasphemy!

826
01:17:05,579 --> 01:17:07,231
You faring well, Mr Haydon?

827
01:17:07,331 --> 01:17:11,101
- This will be the finish of me!
- 50 pounds!

828
01:17:20,344 --> 01:17:22,747
Thank you, sir.
Thank you, sir, for your charity.

829
01:17:22,847 --> 01:17:25,124
- Haydon?
- You have been most kind.

830
01:17:25,224 --> 01:17:27,376
Most kind in your placement.
You have finished me.

831
01:17:27,476 --> 01:17:30,630
You might as well have taken my painting
and put it in the outhouse.

832
01:17:30,730 --> 01:17:33,007
Better yet, taken it out of this building
and thrown it in the Fleet.

833
01:17:33,107 --> 01:17:35,426
Haydon, I am hard... hard set

834
01:17:35,526 --> 01:17:37,511
- to understand your indignation.
- And as for you, my pupil...

835
01:17:37,611 --> 01:17:40,640
Your painting, sir, is hanging
next-door to that of Mr Turner.

836
01:17:40,740 --> 01:17:43,309
- It is in fine company.
- This is treachery!

837
01:17:43,409 --> 01:17:46,395
- And do not talk to me of Turner's work.
- Please lower your voice, Mr Haydon.

838
01:17:46,495 --> 01:17:48,689
His pictures look as if they were painted
by somebody born without hands!

839
01:17:48,789 --> 01:17:50,441
Mr Haydon, what is your quarrel?

840
01:17:50,541 --> 01:17:53,069
What principles have you applied
other than those that I gave?

841
01:17:53,169 --> 01:17:56,239
- Mr Haydon, please lower your voice.
- I will not, sir!

842
01:17:56,339 --> 01:17:58,574
- What is your quarrel here?
- I have no respect for you.

843
01:17:58,674 --> 01:18:01,702
I certainly do not acknowledge
your presidency.

844
01:18:01,802 --> 01:18:03,037
It should have been Wilkie.

845
01:18:03,137 --> 01:18:06,749
Mr Haydon, I will not have personal
attacks like this on the Academy floor.

846
01:18:06,849 --> 01:18:08,542
You will have
what I choose to give you, sir.

847
01:18:08,642 --> 01:18:10,086
This would be one of the many reasons

848
01:18:10,186 --> 01:18:11,671
why you were never accepted here,
Mr Haydon.

849
01:18:11,771 --> 01:18:14,257
This man... this man has spent
a quarter of a century

850
01:18:14,357 --> 01:18:16,217
doing everything in his power
to malign me...

851
01:18:16,317 --> 01:18:18,594
- I have done nothing of the sort.
- ...and spoil my genius.

852
01:18:18,694 --> 01:18:20,554
- Refrain from this shouting, Mr Haydon.
- I will not!

853
01:18:20,654 --> 01:18:22,807
- I will have you forcibly removed.
- Yes, do it!

854
01:18:22,907 --> 01:18:25,268
Do it! Remove me
from your nest of portrait painters!

855
01:18:25,368 --> 01:18:26,310
Have a care!

856
01:18:26,410 --> 01:18:28,062
What, sir, is wrong
with being a portrait painter?

857
01:18:28,162 --> 01:18:29,689
What does it do to elevate the art?

858
01:18:29,789 --> 01:18:32,108
I received the accolade
from the King for painting portraits.

859
01:18:32,208 --> 01:18:34,694
- Oh, God! I bow to him!
- And damn good ones too, sir!

860
01:18:34,794 --> 01:18:38,739
Haydon, can I point out
that I, too, hang in the inferior chamber?

861
01:18:38,839 --> 01:18:40,992
I care not for your work, sir.
I care not a fig.

862
01:18:41,092 --> 01:18:44,912
At least my work does not represent
self-portrait as ass.

863
01:18:45,012 --> 01:18:46,812
Give me those...

864
01:18:50,684 --> 01:18:53,254
- Unhand me!
- Remove this man!

865
01:18:53,354 --> 01:18:55,840
You swines! You swines!

866
01:18:55,940 --> 01:18:58,467
Mr Haydon, sir,
with deep regret I must inform you

867
01:18:58,567 --> 01:19:00,928
that I am on my way to the porters,

868
01:19:01,028 --> 01:19:03,264
unless you feel free to leave
of your own volition.

869
01:19:05,574 --> 01:19:07,175
Please, sir.

870
01:19:09,078 --> 01:19:11,763
Stretch me no longer
on this rough world.

871
01:19:13,791 --> 01:19:15,725
I'm done with you.

872
01:21:23,045 --> 01:21:26,532
'Tis nice to have a bit of company
for a change.

873
01:21:26,632 --> 01:21:29,452
So you had a good walk, then?
Weren't too chippy up there by Reculver?

874
01:21:29,552 --> 01:21:32,997
Somewhat blowy and the wind
did kick up some white horses.

875
01:21:33,097 --> 01:21:34,832
Can do this time of year.

876
01:21:34,932 --> 01:21:37,001
In summertime, though,
'tis a lovely calm spot for a picnic

877
01:21:37,101 --> 01:21:38,502
up there by the Two Sisters,

878
01:21:38,602 --> 01:21:41,922
but in wintertime I have known
the whole of Marine Terrace down here

879
01:21:42,022 --> 01:21:45,301
without a pane of glass left
in the entire place.

880
01:21:45,401 --> 01:21:47,669
Oh, the glaziers do get rich.

881
01:21:48,612 --> 01:21:51,557
When Mr Booth and I moved in here,
we had the whole place polished up,

882
01:21:51,657 --> 01:21:53,976
spick and span,
ready for our first visitors

883
01:21:54,076 --> 01:21:56,770
and the wind did blow
and the sea come up.

884
01:21:56,870 --> 01:21:59,064
We had broken glass everywhere.
It were terrible.

885
01:21:59,164 --> 01:22:01,484
Mrs Booth.

886
01:22:01,584 --> 01:22:03,935
Would you be so kind
as to look out of the window?

887
01:22:05,921 --> 01:22:08,073
Where? What am I looking at?

888
01:22:08,173 --> 01:22:11,401
From the tip of your nose to the bridge
to the curve of your brow

889
01:22:12,386 --> 01:22:16,948
you put me in mind of a Greek sculpture
I'm familiar with, of Aphrodite,

890
01:22:17,641 --> 01:22:19,784
the goddess of love.

891
01:22:20,728 --> 01:22:23,506
Oh, now!

892
01:22:23,606 --> 01:22:25,674
No one's ever said that
about my nose before.

893
01:22:25,774 --> 01:22:26,999
This old snout!

894
01:22:32,114 --> 01:22:34,308
Truth to tell,
my eyes aren't so good these days

895
01:22:34,408 --> 01:22:38,604
so when I do look in the looking-glass
I be glad I cannot see so well.

896
01:22:38,704 --> 01:22:42,640
When I peruse myself in the looking-glass,
I see a gargoyle.

897
01:22:43,667 --> 01:22:45,486
Now, you be fishing for compliments,

898
01:22:45,586 --> 01:22:49,365
and my old ma used to say, them
what fish for compliments don't get none.

899
01:22:49,465 --> 01:22:53,067
Besides, 'tis what's within a person
that do matter.

900
01:22:55,137 --> 01:22:57,655
I do not know you, Mr Mallard,

901
01:22:59,058 --> 01:23:04,078
and I'm sure there be things about you
that are beyond my understanding,

902
01:23:05,064 --> 01:23:07,758
but I believe you to be...

903
01:23:07,858 --> 01:23:12,044
a man of great... spirit
and fine feeling.

904
01:23:17,034 --> 01:23:18,593
Mrs Booth...

905
01:23:20,621 --> 01:23:23,723
you are a woman of profound beauty.

906
01:23:27,586 --> 01:23:29,187
Mr Mallard...

907
01:23:35,094 --> 01:23:37,361
I am lost for words.

908
01:24:02,830 --> 01:24:05,441
Good night, Mr Mallard, sir.

909
01:24:05,541 --> 01:24:07,568
I've cleaned your boots for'ee.

910
01:24:07,668 --> 01:24:09,602
They're by the door here.

911
01:24:12,798 --> 01:24:14,398
Mrs Booth.

912
01:24:16,343 --> 01:24:19,997
I thank you
for a most convivial evening.

913
01:24:20,097 --> 01:24:22,031
I do thank you too, sir.

914
01:25:57,903 --> 01:26:01,380
If I may be so bold as to say, mate,

915
01:26:02,741 --> 01:26:04,926
as I see it,

916
01:26:05,661 --> 01:26:08,063
you're a loose cannon
rolling round the deck.

917
01:26:54,585 --> 01:26:55,778
And out.

918
01:26:59,172 --> 01:27:01,325
Cover yourself up.

919
01:27:01,425 --> 01:27:02,743
Good man.

920
01:27:02,843 --> 01:27:06,455
Well, Mr Mallard
is suffering from bronchitis.

921
01:27:06,555 --> 01:27:08,123
Oh... there.

922
01:27:08,223 --> 01:27:10,542
For which we prescribe the three Bs:

923
01:27:10,642 --> 01:27:13,086
- bed, balsam and broth.
- Oh.

924
01:27:13,186 --> 01:27:17,090
To be administered in this case
by the fourth B: the admirable Mrs Booth.

925
01:27:17,190 --> 01:27:18,550
- Oh!
- Thank you.

926
01:27:18,650 --> 01:27:22,387
Now, Mrs Booth, if you would be so good
as to come up to the house after four,

927
01:27:22,487 --> 01:27:23,931
I shall have the balsam prepared.

928
01:27:24,031 --> 01:27:26,558
- Indeed I shall, sir.
- Good day, Mr Mallard.

929
01:27:26,658 --> 01:27:29,311
Rest the body, sir,
and the soul shall find solace.

930
01:27:29,411 --> 01:27:32,105
I do thank ye, Doctor.
Let me show ye out.

931
01:27:32,205 --> 01:27:34,399
- Good day to you, Mrs Booth.
- Good day to you, sir.

932
01:27:59,775 --> 01:28:00,884
Gentlemen.

933
01:28:00,984 --> 01:28:02,845
Mr Turner.

934
01:28:02,945 --> 01:28:07,099
My father and I are marvelling
at this glorious work.

935
01:28:07,199 --> 01:28:09,810
Er... might I be correct in remembering

936
01:28:09,910 --> 01:28:13,522
that we had the good fortune of viewing it
at the Academy last summer?

937
01:28:13,622 --> 01:28:14,731
Indeed.

938
01:28:14,831 --> 01:28:18,861
Well, I must say, it is no less impressive
on its second viewing.

939
01:28:18,961 --> 01:28:21,905
Perhaps even more so. Is it not, Father?

940
01:28:22,005 --> 01:28:23,198
Indeed so.

941
01:28:23,298 --> 01:28:26,451
I recall it provoked
much heated and stimulating discussion

942
01:28:26,551 --> 01:28:28,537
long after our viewing.

943
01:28:28,637 --> 01:28:31,415
- It did not sell.
- Indeed not?

944
01:28:31,515 --> 01:28:33,500
No, Mr Ruskin.

945
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:36,545
- I'm astonished.
- But it is a masterpiece.

946
01:28:36,645 --> 01:28:39,506
- Thackeray reviles it.
- How so?

947
01:28:39,606 --> 01:28:43,176
- Sublime or ridiculous, he says.
- Well, perhaps he should make up his mind.

948
01:28:43,276 --> 01:28:44,845
He has a sharp and cynical tongue.

949
01:28:44,945 --> 01:28:48,348
There is no place for cynicism
in the reviewing of art.

950
01:28:50,158 --> 01:28:52,769
- 'Tis of no consequence.
- Quite.

951
01:28:52,869 --> 01:28:54,929
It is purchasable.

952
01:28:56,039 --> 01:28:57,774
Enticing.

953
01:28:57,874 --> 01:28:59,850
Perhaps.

954
01:29:01,962 --> 01:29:06,992
Typhus epidemic amongst the cargo,
slaves die on board, no insurance.

955
01:29:07,092 --> 01:29:10,621
Sling 'em in the drink,
drowned dead, cash.

956
01:29:10,721 --> 01:29:13,582
I am struck by the column
of bright white,

957
01:29:13,682 --> 01:29:16,919
placed precisely off centre here,

958
01:29:17,019 --> 01:29:20,756
applied over the darkened background,
impasto,

959
01:29:20,856 --> 01:29:26,053
contrasting with the scarlet and ochre hues
in the upper left corner,

960
01:29:26,153 --> 01:29:29,598
which in turn contrasts
with the presence of God,

961
01:29:29,698 --> 01:29:33,143
revealing to us that hope exists

962
01:29:33,243 --> 01:29:36,521
even in the most turbulent
and illimitable of deaths.

963
01:29:36,621 --> 01:29:38,139
Bluebottles.

964
01:29:38,999 --> 01:29:42,393
- Eh?
- Up in the muslin. Knock 'em out.

965
01:29:43,462 --> 01:29:45,813
Well, I didn't put 'em there.

966
01:29:49,134 --> 01:29:53,705
Would it not sit splendidly
above the fireplace in the library, Father?

967
01:29:53,805 --> 01:29:57,542
It would, but I fear
it may be beyond our purse, John.

968
01:29:57,642 --> 01:30:00,119
I'm sure some arrangement
can be come to, sir.

969
01:30:01,563 --> 01:30:03,330
Mind your heads.

970
01:30:04,858 --> 01:30:07,010
You're just...
you're just knocking 'em up and down.

971
01:30:07,110 --> 01:30:08,762
Scrape 'em out.

972
01:30:08,862 --> 01:30:11,338
Now you've...
Now you've knocked it over there.

973
01:30:48,819 --> 01:30:50,878
There. 'Tis a nice day for'ee.

974
01:30:54,574 --> 01:30:56,600
Au revoir, madame.

975
01:31:00,956 --> 01:31:02,681
T'other way.

976
01:31:03,959 --> 01:31:06,101
- Morning, Mrs Stokes.
- Morning.

977
01:31:36,533 --> 01:31:41,146
Dr Price, Mrs Booth has summoned you here
under false pretences.

978
01:31:41,246 --> 01:31:42,898
Let the doctor do his work.

979
01:31:42,998 --> 01:31:44,390
Breathe in.

980
01:31:45,876 --> 01:31:47,590
Breathe out.

981
01:31:48,003 --> 01:31:50,739
Have you been exerting yourself
unduly, Mr Mallard?

982
01:31:50,839 --> 01:31:52,616
No more than is usual, sir.

983
01:31:52,716 --> 01:31:54,608
Remind me again,
what is your profession?

984
01:31:56,052 --> 01:31:58,872
- Master of Chancery.
- Breathe in.

985
01:31:58,972 --> 01:32:01,166
Forgive me, sir, but I beg to differ.

986
01:32:01,266 --> 01:32:02,733
Breathe out.

987
01:32:03,935 --> 01:32:07,380
I suggest that you are Mr Turner,
the illustrious painter,

988
01:32:07,480 --> 01:32:10,833
and I am greatly honoured
to make your acquaintance.

989
01:32:11,610 --> 01:32:13,261
My apologies to you both,

990
01:32:13,361 --> 01:32:16,223
but rest assured
that my discretion can be relied upon.

991
01:32:17,449 --> 01:32:20,894
Now, allow me to examine your eyes.

992
01:32:20,994 --> 01:32:23,814
The eyes of a master.

993
01:32:23,914 --> 01:32:25,431
Open wide.

994
01:32:28,418 --> 01:32:29,935
Look up.

995
01:32:33,965 --> 01:32:37,401
Mr Turner, you are suffering
from a disorder of the heart.

996
01:32:38,511 --> 01:32:40,914
There is no immediate
cause for concern, Mrs Booth.

997
01:32:41,014 --> 01:32:42,999
- But he will have to be careful.
- Oh, dear.

998
01:32:43,099 --> 01:32:48,505
Live moderately, sir, and you shall enjoy
a long and fruitful life.

999
01:32:48,605 --> 01:32:52,801
Exert yourself unduly
and you will go to an early grave.

1000
01:32:52,901 --> 01:32:54,835
Oh, dear.

1001
01:32:56,238 --> 01:32:57,338
There, now.

1002
01:33:15,215 --> 01:33:17,066
Good day, sir.

1003
01:33:19,636 --> 01:33:21,904
Have you nothing to say to me?

1004
01:33:24,432 --> 01:33:26,784
I am most sorry for your loss.

1005
01:33:27,852 --> 01:33:29,880
Our loss, Father!

1006
01:33:29,980 --> 01:33:32,257
Your own dear daughter's funeral.

1007
01:33:32,357 --> 01:33:33,916
Indeed.

1008
01:33:37,112 --> 01:33:39,681
I did not find myself in the city.

1009
01:33:39,781 --> 01:33:44,352
As ever, sir,
painting your ridiculous shipwrecks.

1010
01:33:47,289 --> 01:33:49,390
Have you no feelings?

1011
01:33:51,459 --> 01:33:52,976
Speak!

1012
01:33:59,384 --> 01:34:01,203
Come, Evelina.

1013
01:34:01,303 --> 01:34:04,154
There is nothing here for us.

1014
01:34:53,188 --> 01:34:55,289
You're tired, my dear.

1015
01:34:58,651 --> 01:35:01,554
'Tis too much of a strain
for you these days,

1016
01:35:01,654 --> 01:35:06,091
trawling back and forth on that old steamer
every time you wants to see me.

1017
01:35:07,327 --> 01:35:11,064
And even when they've finished
building that new railway,

1018
01:35:11,164 --> 01:35:14,099
we none of us do know what lies ahead.

1019
01:35:17,212 --> 01:35:19,906
I have bethought me of a plan

1020
01:35:20,006 --> 01:35:22,659
and here is what we must do.

1021
01:35:22,759 --> 01:35:24,452
If you will find a little house for us,

1022
01:35:24,552 --> 01:35:29,072
somewhere by your beloved River Thames,
but not too far from London Town,

1023
01:35:29,641 --> 01:35:31,918
with good, solid, wooden floors,

1024
01:35:32,018 --> 01:35:34,536
nice bright light for you to work by...

1025
01:35:35,647 --> 01:35:37,915
then I will buy the lease.

1026
01:35:41,486 --> 01:35:43,587
I can sell this house.

1027
01:35:45,657 --> 01:35:47,892
I think we would be happy,

1028
01:35:47,992 --> 01:35:49,602
the two of us.

1029
01:35:58,420 --> 01:35:59,904
There she is.

1030
01:36:00,004 --> 01:36:03,700
- The saucy Temeraire.
- Going to her death, I fear.

1031
01:36:03,800 --> 01:36:05,201
She's served her time.

1032
01:36:05,301 --> 01:36:07,996
The auctioneer's hammer
has struck that final blow.

1033
01:36:08,096 --> 01:36:09,539
Indeed.

1034
01:36:09,639 --> 01:36:12,834
If not for her, the Victory might
never again have seen our shores.

1035
01:36:12,934 --> 01:36:14,919
Aye, nor the body of Lord Nelson.

1036
01:36:15,019 --> 01:36:17,964
The little saviour of Trafalgar.

1037
01:36:18,064 --> 01:36:22,344
They say 5,000 oaks
went into making that ship.

1038
01:36:22,444 --> 01:36:25,847
Now she's destined to be reduced
to 5,000 tables and chairs.

1039
01:36:25,947 --> 01:36:28,892
To be sat on by 5,000 fat arses.

1040
01:36:30,994 --> 01:36:32,479
Gentlemen, a toast.

1041
01:36:32,579 --> 01:36:36,733
Raise your pot of grog.
To the fine, fighting Temeraire!

1042
01:36:36,833 --> 01:36:39,235
- The Temeraire!
- The Temeraire!

1043
01:36:39,335 --> 01:36:40,978
Here's to her.

1044
01:36:43,089 --> 01:36:45,524
- A ghost of the past.
- No, Rabbie.

1045
01:36:46,217 --> 01:36:49,278
The past is the past.
We're observing the future.

1046
01:36:50,346 --> 01:36:54,074
Smoke, iron, steam.

1047
01:36:55,226 --> 01:36:57,212
She'd make a fine subject
for you to paint, Turner.

1048
01:36:57,312 --> 01:37:01,164
Oh, is that so, Stanny?
I shall cogitate upon it.

1049
01:37:02,025 --> 01:37:03,843
Thank you. Yeah, yeah.

1050
01:37:12,202 --> 01:37:15,188
It's that Mr Haydon.

1051
01:37:18,541 --> 01:37:21,643
He's brought a cold blast of air
in with him.

1052
01:37:29,344 --> 01:37:33,081
Mr Haydon, to what do I owe the honour
of your presence this morning?

1053
01:37:33,181 --> 01:37:36,835
I trust that this is not
an inconvenience to you, Turner.

1054
01:37:36,935 --> 01:37:40,547
Now, will you accept ten pounds?

1055
01:37:40,647 --> 01:37:43,383
- Ten pounds, sir?
- I wish to be free of the debt.

1056
01:37:43,483 --> 01:37:47,178
- It weighs heavily upon me.
- Sir, you owe me 50 pounds.

1057
01:37:47,278 --> 01:37:51,975
Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle.
I have been giving my lecture.

1058
01:37:52,075 --> 01:37:54,269
Edinburgh, fair city.

1059
01:37:54,369 --> 01:37:57,137
Only in London
is my genius not appreciated.

1060
01:37:58,331 --> 01:38:00,733
Consider this as a statement of intent.

1061
01:38:00,833 --> 01:38:03,736
- Mr Haydon, pray be seated.
- I had rather not.

1062
01:38:03,836 --> 01:38:05,989
I do not wish to prevail upon your time
more than is necessary.

1063
01:38:06,089 --> 01:38:08,357
And I prevail upon you, sir,
to take a seat.

1064
01:38:10,051 --> 01:38:12,611
- Where would you have me sit?
- Wherever you wish.

1065
01:38:15,390 --> 01:38:17,459
- Will this suffice?
- Indeed.

1066
01:38:17,559 --> 01:38:20,545
Mr Haydon, do you still find yourself
in a position of impecuniousness?

1067
01:38:20,645 --> 01:38:25,791
Impecunity? Turner, that has been
my constant state these 30 years.

1068
01:38:26,943 --> 01:38:29,461
You are most well-appointed here.

1069
01:38:30,113 --> 01:38:34,601
I do not recall the last time
we had as much coal in our scuttle as that.

1070
01:38:34,701 --> 01:38:37,312
I fear we shall be burning
our furniture this winter.

1071
01:38:37,412 --> 01:38:39,689
Does Mrs Haydon
find herself faring well?

1072
01:38:39,789 --> 01:38:43,318
She does not. She has not recovered.

1073
01:38:43,418 --> 01:38:45,612
I fear that she may never do so.

1074
01:38:45,712 --> 01:38:47,646
What ails her, sir?

1075
01:38:48,464 --> 01:38:50,482
We have buried five children.

1076
01:38:52,051 --> 01:38:54,996
- Indeed?
- In Paddington old churchyard

1077
01:38:55,096 --> 01:38:57,999
they remove the soil,
extract the coffins,

1078
01:38:58,099 --> 01:38:59,375
dig the hole deeper,

1079
01:38:59,475 --> 01:39:03,296
then reinter the coffins
with another atop.

1080
01:39:03,396 --> 01:39:06,341
Five times
she has had to suffer that indignity.

1081
01:39:06,441 --> 01:39:09,418
- 'Tis pitiable.
- It is pitiable, Turner.

1082
01:39:10,069 --> 01:39:12,003
You have never had to endure
the loss of a child.

1083
01:39:13,781 --> 01:39:14,891
I have not, sir.

1084
01:39:14,991 --> 01:39:16,893
A dying child,

1085
01:39:16,993 --> 01:39:19,678
'tis a potent subject
for a painting, is it not?

1086
01:39:21,456 --> 01:39:23,858
And what is your
present endeavour, Turner?

1087
01:39:23,958 --> 01:39:27,894
- Er... marine piece.
- A marine piece?

1088
01:39:29,213 --> 01:39:31,773
Do not you tire of boats
and the fiery firmament?

1089
01:39:32,467 --> 01:39:33,984
I do not, sir.

1090
01:39:35,845 --> 01:39:38,331
Sometimes I consider
it might make a better course for me

1091
01:39:38,431 --> 01:39:40,532
were I to set light to the house

1092
01:39:41,517 --> 01:39:45,547
with my wife, my surviving children
and myself within it.

1093
01:39:45,647 --> 01:39:47,914
Then they would no longer
be saddled with me.

1094
01:39:48,149 --> 01:39:52,085
Your pain is your own, sir.
Do not inflict it upon your loved ones.

1095
01:39:54,447 --> 01:39:56,423
Will you take my ten pounds?

1096
01:39:58,493 --> 01:40:01,813
I will not, sir.
You are free of your debt.

1097
01:40:01,913 --> 01:40:04,440
- Free? How so?
- 'Tis expunged.

1098
01:40:04,540 --> 01:40:07,569
Er... no, sir. I do not come here
a seeker after charity or pity.

1099
01:40:07,669 --> 01:40:10,029
You have neither charity
nor pity nor debt.

1100
01:40:10,129 --> 01:40:12,031
I do not wish it in such a circumstance.

1101
01:40:12,131 --> 01:40:15,243
Mr Haydon, I am much preoccupied.

1102
01:40:15,343 --> 01:40:18,162
Me damsel, be so kind as to escort
the gentleman into the street.

1103
01:40:18,262 --> 01:40:19,956
Good day to you, sir.

1104
01:40:20,056 --> 01:40:22,616
This does not sit well with me, Turner.

1105
01:40:27,146 --> 01:40:28,298
Damn his eyes.

1106
01:40:46,708 --> 01:40:49,861
- Turner and Jones.
- Mr Turner, Captain Jones.

1107
01:40:49,961 --> 01:40:52,113
- It's a pleasure to see you.
- Mr Ruskin!

1108
01:40:52,213 --> 01:40:53,281
Good evening to you.

1109
01:40:53,381 --> 01:40:54,699
I trust you had a pleasant journey?

1110
01:40:54,799 --> 01:40:56,492
Indeed. You find yourself well, sir?

1111
01:40:56,592 --> 01:40:59,662
I do indeed, thank you.
Pride of place, Mr Turner.

1112
01:40:59,762 --> 01:41:00,913
Splendid.

1113
01:41:01,013 --> 01:41:03,249
As though the house was built around it.

1114
01:41:03,349 --> 01:41:05,951
- Please, come through.
- Jonesy.

1115
01:41:10,273 --> 01:41:11,883
Er, my good husband is of the opinion

1116
01:41:11,983 --> 01:41:15,303
that the gooseberry
prefers the colder climate,

1117
01:41:15,403 --> 01:41:18,890
whereas I consider
that all fruits benefit from the warmth.

1118
01:41:18,990 --> 01:41:23,353
My dear late mother always insisted
that both the gooseberry and the rhubarb

1119
01:41:23,453 --> 01:41:26,314
favour the colder climes
of our victorious isles.

1120
01:41:26,414 --> 01:41:31,059
I do not doubt that the gooseberry
for its preference may enjoy the warm,

1121
01:41:31,586 --> 01:41:36,282
however I am convinced that a cold start
promotes the more vigorous specimen.

1122
01:41:36,382 --> 01:41:38,826
Are we not to take as empirical evidence

1123
01:41:38,926 --> 01:41:43,122
our many expeditions to the warmer
climes of the Mediterranean

1124
01:41:43,222 --> 01:41:46,876
where we do not exactly encounter
an abundance of gooseberries?

1125
01:41:46,976 --> 01:41:49,629
- Ha! Indeed.
- Exactly so.

1126
01:41:49,729 --> 01:41:52,006
I did not myself savour
many gooseberries in Jerusalem.

1127
01:41:52,106 --> 01:41:54,759
The holy city, Mr Turner.

1128
01:41:54,859 --> 01:41:58,221
And yet we do enjoy
fine gooseberries in Scotland,

1129
01:41:58,321 --> 01:41:59,514
do we not, Mr Ruskin?

1130
01:41:59,614 --> 01:42:02,591
Aye, and no better a cold start
than a good Scottish sun.

1131
01:42:03,618 --> 01:42:04,811
Exactly that.

1132
01:42:04,911 --> 01:42:09,524
Surely, regardless of how cold the start
of the life of the gooseberry might be,

1133
01:42:09,624 --> 01:42:12,485
it is almost certainly destined
for a warm ending.

1134
01:42:12,585 --> 01:42:16,698
To which we have all borne witness
in Mrs Ruskin's excellent gooseberry pie.

1135
01:42:17,377 --> 01:42:19,784
I thank you, Captain Jones.

1136
01:42:19,884 --> 01:42:23,287
May I propose as a topic for discussion

1137
01:42:23,387 --> 01:42:27,166
the question as to the depiction
of the seas and the oceans

1138
01:42:27,266 --> 01:42:28,793
in pictorial art?

1139
01:42:30,061 --> 01:42:33,089
Now, I appreciate that I am honoured

1140
01:42:33,189 --> 01:42:37,719
to be in the presence of two of our
most distinguished marine painters,

1141
01:42:37,819 --> 01:42:41,180
Mr Turner and Mr Stanfield,

1142
01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:45,560
not to forget Captain Jones
and Mr Roberts, of course,

1143
01:42:45,660 --> 01:42:50,314
whose realisations are confined
to mere naked terra firma,

1144
01:42:50,414 --> 01:42:52,066
exemplary though they are.

1145
01:42:54,168 --> 01:42:56,863
My point being that, alas,

1146
01:42:56,963 --> 01:43:01,743
I find myself harbouring
a perhaps rather controversial opinion

1147
01:43:01,843 --> 01:43:04,162
regarding the long deceased Claude.

1148
01:43:04,262 --> 01:43:08,166
- Indeed?
- I am afraid so, Captain Jones.

1149
01:43:08,266 --> 01:43:10,168
I must confess

1150
01:43:10,268 --> 01:43:16,048
that I find his rendering of the sea
rather insipid, dull and uninspiring.

1151
01:43:16,148 --> 01:43:18,968
That is an extremely bold statement,
young Mr Ruskin.

1152
01:43:19,068 --> 01:43:20,720
Thank you very much.

1153
01:43:20,820 --> 01:43:22,722
Claude was a man of his time.

1154
01:43:22,822 --> 01:43:25,141
My point exactly, Mr Turner,

1155
01:43:25,241 --> 01:43:27,769
but that time is now long past.

1156
01:43:27,869 --> 01:43:31,606
When I experience
a modern masterpiece such as yours,

1157
01:43:31,706 --> 01:43:35,860
I am struck by the clarity
with which you have captured the moment.

1158
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:38,279
Take, for example, your slave ship,

1159
01:43:38,379 --> 01:43:42,617
"Slavers Throwing Overboard
the Dead and Dying - Typhoon Coming On",

1160
01:43:42,717 --> 01:43:45,578
by which I have the good fortune
to be greeted every morning

1161
01:43:45,678 --> 01:43:48,039
on my way into my meagre breakfast.

1162
01:43:48,139 --> 01:43:52,627
The impact of the foaming
brine incarnadine

1163
01:43:52,727 --> 01:43:56,672
consuming those unfortunate Negro slaves

1164
01:43:56,772 --> 01:44:00,635
never ceases to quicken
the beat of my heart.

1165
01:44:00,735 --> 01:44:04,555
Yet when I gaze upon a work of Claude

1166
01:44:04,655 --> 01:44:06,891
I find myself enduring nothing more

1167
01:44:06,991 --> 01:44:10,186
than a mere collection
of precise brushstrokes

1168
01:44:10,286 --> 01:44:13,356
which instil in me
no sense of awe whatsoever,

1169
01:44:13,456 --> 01:44:14,899
let alone the sea.

1170
01:44:14,999 --> 01:44:16,599
Preposterous!

1171
01:44:16,959 --> 01:44:19,644
I do beg your pardon, Mrs Ruskin.

1172
01:44:21,589 --> 01:44:24,033
- Claude Lorrain was a genius.
- Quite so.

1173
01:44:24,133 --> 01:44:28,454
I sense an excess of modesty in Mr Turner
and there is no need for such humility.

1174
01:44:28,554 --> 01:44:30,414
Mr Ruskin, sir,

1175
01:44:30,514 --> 01:44:35,628
to conjecture upon the matter
of seascape painting is one thing

1176
01:44:35,728 --> 01:44:38,381
but to stand amongst the elements

1177
01:44:38,481 --> 01:44:43,594
and to experience
and to interpret what one sees

1178
01:44:43,694 --> 01:44:45,137
is something quite other.

1179
01:44:45,237 --> 01:44:47,014
- Hear, hear.
- Quite.

1180
01:44:47,114 --> 01:44:48,641
That is as it may be.

1181
01:44:48,741 --> 01:44:53,145
Claude painted from the land,
looking at the sea becalmed by the harbour.

1182
01:44:53,245 --> 01:44:55,930
- Oh, indeed.
- "Bless the Lord, oh my soul

1183
01:44:56,958 --> 01:44:59,652
"Who layeth the beams
of his chambers in the waters

1184
01:44:59,752 --> 01:45:02,280
"and walketh
upon the wings of the wind."

1185
01:45:02,380 --> 01:45:03,906
How apt, Mother.

1186
01:45:04,006 --> 01:45:05,324
Thank you, John.

1187
01:45:06,676 --> 01:45:09,110
When my son was but a small boy,

1188
01:45:10,137 --> 01:45:12,331
he was overheard to remark that...

1189
01:45:12,431 --> 01:45:15,710
"waves of sea are indeed lovely to watch

1190
01:45:15,810 --> 01:45:18,296
"but they are always coming or gone,

1191
01:45:18,396 --> 01:45:20,590
"never in any taken shape to be seen..."

1192
01:45:20,690 --> 01:45:22,457
- For a second.
- "...a second."

1193
01:45:24,402 --> 01:45:28,014
I find myself marvelling
at my own wealth of perception,

1194
01:45:28,114 --> 01:45:30,131
even at the early age of four.

1195
01:45:30,616 --> 01:45:31,851
Quite so.

1196
01:45:31,951 --> 01:45:36,314
Mr Ruskin, can I pose you
a somewhat conundrous question?

1197
01:45:36,414 --> 01:45:38,348
Please do, Mr Turner.

1198
01:45:40,668 --> 01:45:43,779
To which do you find yourself
the more partial,

1199
01:45:43,879 --> 01:45:48,492
a... steak and kidney pie
or a veal and ham pie?

1200
01:45:52,513 --> 01:45:54,790
I must confess, Mr Turner,

1201
01:45:54,890 --> 01:45:58,002
that I find myself quite unable
to answer your question

1202
01:45:58,102 --> 01:46:00,870
with the precision that I would wish.

1203
01:47:14,345 --> 01:47:15,945
Your Majesty.

1204
01:47:37,827 --> 01:47:39,677
Terribly flat.

1205
01:47:40,788 --> 01:47:43,473
- Dull.
- It's rather dark, isn't it?

1206
01:47:44,792 --> 01:47:46,861
- Sir Martin.
- Sir?

1207
01:47:46,961 --> 01:47:50,521
- Who is the artist?
- I believe, sir, it's...

1208
01:47:56,137 --> 01:47:58,080
Mr John Ferneley, sir.

1209
01:47:58,180 --> 01:48:00,490
Oh, Mr Ferneley.

1210
01:48:22,663 --> 01:48:24,440
Turner.

1211
01:48:24,540 --> 01:48:27,100
He is clearly losing his eyesight.

1212
01:48:30,337 --> 01:48:32,855
And this one is vile.

1213
01:48:36,594 --> 01:48:37,703
Unbelievable.

1214
01:48:37,803 --> 01:48:39,914
- What it that?
- I don't know.

1215
01:48:40,014 --> 01:48:42,573
A dirty, yellow mess.

1216
01:48:53,569 --> 01:48:56,347
It is a truly frightful piece.

1217
01:48:56,447 --> 01:48:59,433
It is indicative of mental disease.

1218
01:48:59,533 --> 01:49:01,843
It is wretched and abortive.

1219
01:49:05,873 --> 01:49:07,473
Sad.

1220
01:49:07,875 --> 01:49:12,238
Mr Turner seems
to have taken leave of form altogether.

1221
01:49:12,338 --> 01:49:14,949
He has on former occasion
chosen to paint

1222
01:49:15,049 --> 01:49:19,578
with cream or chocolate,
yolk of egg or currant jelly.

1223
01:49:19,678 --> 01:49:23,958
But here he uses
his whole array of kitchen stuff.

1224
01:49:24,058 --> 01:49:28,703
- Eggs and spinach.
- No, soap suds and whitewash.

1225
01:49:29,855 --> 01:49:33,259
Jam tarts! Jam tarts! Fresh jam tarts!

1226
01:49:43,202 --> 01:49:44,979
Where is that wretched baker's boy?

1227
01:49:45,079 --> 01:49:46,939
His fate, I fear, he won't enjoy.

1228
01:49:47,039 --> 01:49:49,191
He will indeed the lad destroy!

1229
01:49:50,334 --> 01:49:52,111
I have an inspiration.

1230
01:49:52,211 --> 01:49:54,989
- What's that?
- We're filled with fascination.

1231
01:49:55,089 --> 01:49:57,575
- What is he doing?
- And why is he doing it?

1232
01:49:57,675 --> 01:50:00,619
Whatever he's brewing,
we'll soon be viewing it.

1233
01:50:00,719 --> 01:50:05,416
A masterpiece I here present
which Mr Turner has just sent.

1234
01:50:07,142 --> 01:50:12,006
While mostly blessed
with good intent, we have our doubts.

1235
01:50:12,106 --> 01:50:14,300
But who's this gent?

1236
01:50:14,400 --> 01:50:17,428
Ye common throng and hoi polloi,

1237
01:50:17,528 --> 01:50:20,139
I am a rich and cultured boy.

1238
01:50:20,239 --> 01:50:23,392
My wealth derives from tricking knaves

1239
01:50:23,492 --> 01:50:25,978
and selling coffee, tea and slaves.

1240
01:50:26,078 --> 01:50:28,981
My house is full of things of beauty,

1241
01:50:29,081 --> 01:50:31,942
paintings, sculpture and other booty.

1242
01:50:32,042 --> 01:50:35,270
I like to drink and gourmandise...

1243
01:50:35,370 --> 01:50:37,198
But what is this that greets my eyes?

1244
01:50:37,298 --> 01:50:38,991
It is the latest thing in art.

1245
01:50:39,091 --> 01:50:41,410
It looks like bits of old jam tart.

1246
01:50:41,510 --> 01:50:46,498
'Tis Mr Turner's latest piece,
which placed above your mantelpiece...

1247
01:50:46,598 --> 01:50:49,376
Oh, cease your costermonger sounds!

1248
01:50:49,476 --> 01:50:51,077
I'll buy it.

1249
01:50:52,146 --> 01:50:56,383
- Here's 1,000 pounds.
- Oh, I thank you in my humble way.

1250
01:50:56,483 --> 01:51:00,387
- Don't grovel, send it round today.
- I'll do so, sir, without delay.

1251
01:51:00,487 --> 01:51:03,881
Rejoice! Hurrah! Hip, hip, hooray!

1252
01:51:04,575 --> 01:51:06,602
Though ignorant of art and taste,

1253
01:51:06,702 --> 01:51:08,812
I'm filled with boundless glee,

1254
01:51:08,912 --> 01:51:12,849
for what's good enough for Turner...
is good enough for me!

1255
01:51:54,375 --> 01:51:57,778
Mr Ruskin, I fail to see
wherein lies the charity

1256
01:51:57,878 --> 01:52:00,781
in misleading people
as to the amount of talents they possess.

1257
01:52:00,881 --> 01:52:02,574
Talent is something that lies dormant

1258
01:52:02,674 --> 01:52:04,994
and needs to be drawn out
in the right circumstances.

1259
01:52:05,094 --> 01:52:07,663
If one has the opportunity
to have it drawn out.

1260
01:52:07,763 --> 01:52:10,874
My wife, Effie,

1261
01:52:10,974 --> 01:52:14,878
I am still waiting for her talents
to arise and be drawn out.

1262
01:52:14,978 --> 01:52:18,257
I think talents can be crushed
as much as they may be drawn out.

1263
01:52:18,357 --> 01:52:19,425
Precisely.

1264
01:52:19,525 --> 01:52:20,759
Perhaps it is the duty of the husband...

1265
01:52:20,859 --> 01:52:25,338
Plutarch said,
"Painting is silent poetry."

1266
01:52:40,754 --> 01:52:43,657
Are you interested in poetry, sir?

1267
01:52:43,757 --> 01:52:46,567
Sublime.

1268
01:52:52,975 --> 01:52:54,367
Loneliness...

1269
01:52:56,770 --> 01:52:58,871
solitude...

1270
01:52:59,773 --> 01:53:02,375
'tis not the same.

1271
01:53:03,819 --> 01:53:06,921
Indeed not, Mr Turner.

1272
01:53:07,948 --> 01:53:09,757
It will come.

1273
01:53:11,160 --> 01:53:15,846
Mrs Ruskin... it will come.

1274
01:53:18,083 --> 01:53:19,517
Love.

1275
01:53:34,683 --> 01:53:36,251
What is the hour?

1276
01:53:36,351 --> 01:53:38,712
- Five-and-twenty to seven.
- Oh.

1277
01:53:38,812 --> 01:53:40,413
Oh, God!

1278
01:53:50,949 --> 01:53:53,508
The sun's up in all its glory.

1279
01:53:54,453 --> 01:53:56,387
I must get on.

1280
01:54:16,725 --> 01:54:19,660
- Don't you want your breakfast?
- No, thank you kindly.

1281
01:54:24,983 --> 01:54:27,136
Are you faring well?

1282
01:54:27,236 --> 01:54:29,295
Yes, thank you.

1283
01:54:30,531 --> 01:54:33,341
- And yourself?
- Yes, yes.

1284
01:54:36,036 --> 01:54:38,397
Will I be seeing you tonight?

1285
01:54:38,497 --> 01:54:40,806
- Unlikely.
- Tomorrow?

1286
01:54:42,417 --> 01:54:44,602
- No.
- Oh.

1287
01:54:48,382 --> 01:54:51,651
I might as well stop
changing the bed sheets in here.

1288
01:55:21,373 --> 01:55:22,973
Mr Booth!

1289
01:55:46,982 --> 01:55:48,541
Good day to you.

1290
01:55:59,786 --> 01:56:02,680
- 'Tis warmer now.
- Sultry day.

1291
01:56:06,460 --> 01:56:09,154
- Ooh, what d'you have there?
- Bit of drift bark.

1292
01:56:11,131 --> 01:56:13,232
Has the look of a fallen angel.

1293
01:56:14,301 --> 01:56:16,944
Pretty colours.

1294
01:56:20,432 --> 01:56:22,167
Oh! Sticky.

1295
01:56:25,062 --> 01:56:26,829
Horrid parched.

1296
01:57:01,098 --> 01:57:04,126
- Good morning, sir.
- A very good day to you, sir.

1297
01:57:04,226 --> 01:57:06,243
Nice day, sir.

1298
01:57:13,443 --> 01:57:15,262
Good morning, sir.

1299
01:57:15,362 --> 01:57:17,180
Greetings and welcome.

1300
01:57:17,280 --> 01:57:18,932
A hearty good morning to you, sir.

1301
01:57:19,032 --> 01:57:21,935
- Now, you would be Mr...
- Mr Booth.

1302
01:57:22,035 --> 01:57:24,896
Booth, yes. Mr Booth.

1303
01:57:24,996 --> 01:57:27,733
- At the appointed hour, I believe.
- Indeed, sir.

1304
01:57:27,833 --> 01:57:29,443
Mayall, John Mayall.

1305
01:57:29,543 --> 01:57:31,403
I had made that assumption, sir.

1306
01:57:31,503 --> 01:57:33,655
At your service, Mr Booth.

1307
01:57:33,755 --> 01:57:37,409
Now, if you would be so kind
as to make yourself comfortable...

1308
01:57:37,509 --> 01:57:39,995
- This is the contraption?
- Indeed, sir.

1309
01:57:40,095 --> 01:57:42,404
That is what we call the camera.

1310
01:57:43,223 --> 01:57:45,584
- The cam-ra?
- Yes, sir.

1311
01:57:45,684 --> 01:57:47,085
Not the cam-er?

1312
01:57:47,185 --> 01:57:49,921
Er... no, sir. The camera.

1313
01:57:50,021 --> 01:57:51,965
- The camera?
- Yes, sir.

1314
01:57:52,065 --> 01:57:54,176
As in camera obscura?

1315
01:57:54,276 --> 01:57:57,220
Precisely, sir. The camera.

1316
01:57:57,320 --> 01:58:00,098
Now, if I may ask you
to take a seat, please, here.

1317
01:58:00,198 --> 01:58:02,392
- Name of manufacturer?
- Er...

1318
01:58:02,492 --> 01:58:04,645
It comes to us
from the United States, sir.

1319
01:58:04,745 --> 01:58:06,688
The name eludes you?

1320
01:58:06,788 --> 01:58:08,514
Oh, no, sir.

1321
01:58:09,291 --> 01:58:12,402
My name eludes me from time to time.

1322
01:58:12,502 --> 01:58:14,395
Indeed, sir?

1323
01:58:15,464 --> 01:58:16,615
Now...

1324
01:58:24,890 --> 01:58:29,294
I denote from your brogue
that you hail from the Americas.

1325
01:58:29,394 --> 01:58:31,630
From the fine city of Philadelphia, sir.

1326
01:58:31,730 --> 01:58:34,466
Philadelphia?
'Tis on the eastern coast, is it not?

1327
01:58:34,566 --> 01:58:35,842
That is correct, sir.

1328
01:58:37,277 --> 01:58:40,764
You shall have to forgive
the whip-crack of my knees.

1329
01:58:40,864 --> 01:58:45,134
- Hat on or hat off?
- Er... may I ask your profession, sir?

1330
01:58:45,786 --> 01:58:47,521
Master of Chancery.

1331
01:58:47,621 --> 01:58:50,232
- A man of the law.
- Indeed.

1332
01:58:50,332 --> 01:58:53,819
Then I should recommend the hat on, sir.

1333
01:58:53,919 --> 01:58:57,322
Now, if I might deploy this device...

1334
01:58:57,422 --> 01:58:59,315
Hey!

1335
01:59:00,050 --> 01:59:01,702
What is this heinous implement?

1336
01:59:01,802 --> 01:59:04,079
Merely a gentle holding brace, sir.

1337
01:59:04,179 --> 01:59:06,155
Puts me in mind
of a surgical instrument.

1338
01:59:06,598 --> 01:59:08,959
- Does it hurt?
- Not in the slightest, I assure you.

1339
01:59:09,059 --> 01:59:11,532
So, if I may...

1340
01:59:14,606 --> 01:59:17,008
Not too uncomfortable for you, Mr Booth?

1341
01:59:18,568 --> 01:59:19,594
Thank you, sir.

1342
01:59:19,694 --> 01:59:22,431
What is the significance
of the looking-glass?

1343
01:59:22,531 --> 01:59:26,675
It is to illuminate your good self, sir.

1344
01:59:29,287 --> 01:59:30,939
As the sun upon a lake.

1345
01:59:31,039 --> 01:59:34,693
Oh! Most droll, Mr Booth.

1346
01:59:34,793 --> 01:59:36,027
Most droll.

1347
01:59:38,922 --> 01:59:42,492
What is concealed
behind the small brass cap?

1348
01:59:42,592 --> 01:59:46,872
- An optic?
- Yes, sir, a glass lens.

1349
01:59:46,972 --> 01:59:48,405
As a telescope?

1350
01:59:49,182 --> 01:59:51,626
Not unlike a telescope, sir.

1351
01:59:51,726 --> 01:59:53,336
Thank you, Cornelius.

1352
01:59:53,436 --> 01:59:56,298
- It is prismatic?
- I fear not, sir.

1353
01:59:56,398 --> 01:59:59,050
- It is an achromatic lens.
- Achromatic.

1354
01:59:59,150 --> 02:00:01,669
Now, let me peruse you.

1355
02:00:03,321 --> 02:00:06,767
Why are you shrouded
in the manner of a condemned monk?

1356
02:00:06,867 --> 02:00:09,802
I am simply shutting out the light,
Mr Booth.

1357
02:00:11,288 --> 02:00:13,607
Splendid, sir.

1358
02:00:13,707 --> 02:00:16,359
The image you create is not of colour.

1359
02:00:16,459 --> 02:00:17,778
For why?

1360
02:00:17,878 --> 02:00:21,615
Er... I am afraid that is a question
we have yet to answer, sir.

1361
02:00:21,715 --> 02:00:23,658
It is a mystery.

1362
02:00:23,758 --> 02:00:25,035
Thank you, Cornelius.

1363
02:00:25,135 --> 02:00:27,621
And long may it remain so.

1364
02:00:27,721 --> 02:00:32,375
Now, if I may ask you
to focus your gaze here, on the flowers,

1365
02:00:32,475 --> 02:00:35,086
and we are almost ready.

1366
02:00:35,186 --> 02:00:36,838
Thank you, Cornelius.

1367
02:00:41,651 --> 02:00:42,636
Now...

1368
02:00:42,736 --> 02:00:47,798
I will require your absolute stillness
for the next ten seconds.

1369
02:00:51,703 --> 02:00:54,179
And... we begin.

1370
02:01:14,392 --> 02:01:16,503
And there we have it.

1371
02:01:16,603 --> 02:01:20,164
- 'Tis done?
- It is finished, sir.

1372
02:01:21,149 --> 02:01:23,718
I fear that I, too, am finished.

1373
02:01:23,818 --> 02:01:25,679
Oh, come, come, sir.

1374
02:01:29,157 --> 02:01:30,892
This be one of them there photographs.

1375
02:01:32,035 --> 02:01:34,312
The Queen had one of these taken
with Prince Albert.

1376
02:01:34,412 --> 02:01:36,439
- Did she so?
- She did.

1377
02:01:38,541 --> 02:01:41,111
Oh, you do look most handsome.

1378
02:01:41,211 --> 02:01:43,353
- 'Tis known as a daguerreotype.
- Oh.

1379
02:01:44,381 --> 02:01:45,898
Whatever next?

1380
02:01:46,800 --> 02:01:49,411
- Where'd you have this done, then?
- Up in town on the Strand.

1381
02:01:49,511 --> 02:01:51,111
Fellow with a box.

1382
02:01:56,935 --> 02:01:58,670
- We're going there.
- Where?

1383
02:01:58,770 --> 02:02:00,881
- Have our likeness taken.
- When?

1384
02:02:00,981 --> 02:02:03,008
- Thursday.
- Oh.

1385
02:02:03,108 --> 02:02:05,343
I've arranged an appointment.

1386
02:02:05,443 --> 02:02:07,846
- Well, you'll have to cancel it.
- 'Tis painless.

1387
02:02:07,946 --> 02:02:09,723
Oh, I care not.

1388
02:02:09,823 --> 02:02:11,975
You don't want my old face
in one of these.

1389
02:02:12,075 --> 02:02:14,676
I do, the two of us together.

1390
02:02:15,495 --> 02:02:17,137
Forever.

1391
02:02:20,166 --> 02:02:22,226
I do thank you for this.

1392
02:02:23,003 --> 02:02:24,937
But I ain't going.

1393
02:02:29,467 --> 02:02:31,318
'Tis the camera.

1394
02:02:32,804 --> 02:02:35,498
Mr Mayall, may I beg your indulgence
with a question?

1395
02:02:35,598 --> 02:02:36,875
Why, certainly, sir.

1396
02:02:36,975 --> 02:02:38,877
Do you take landscapes
with your contraption?

1397
02:02:38,977 --> 02:02:41,963
- I do, sir, from time to time.
- Such as what?

1398
02:02:42,063 --> 02:02:45,207
Why, I have recorded
the great falls of Niagara, sir.

1399
02:02:46,151 --> 02:02:48,762
- The Niagara Falls?
- Indeed, sir.

1400
02:02:48,862 --> 02:02:51,014
The greatest wonder in nature.

1401
02:02:51,114 --> 02:02:54,883
It was there that I was once able
to capture a rainbow.

1402
02:02:56,453 --> 02:02:58,470
I'm green-eyed with envy.

1403
02:02:59,497 --> 02:03:01,431
The Niagara Falls...

1404
02:03:02,042 --> 02:03:05,779
is a natural phenomenon
that I have long desired to witness.

1405
02:03:05,879 --> 02:03:07,530
Is that so, sir?

1406
02:03:07,630 --> 02:03:11,326
Now, madam, sir,
if I may ask you to fix your gaze here

1407
02:03:11,426 --> 02:03:13,411
upon these beautiful flowers.

1408
02:03:13,511 --> 02:03:15,121
Thank you, Cornelius.

1409
02:03:15,221 --> 02:03:16,738
Niagara Falls.

1410
02:03:18,558 --> 02:03:21,419
Soon painters will go about the world

1411
02:03:21,519 --> 02:03:24,381
with a box, like a tinker,

1412
02:03:24,481 --> 02:03:27,509
instead of a portfolio under their arms.

1413
02:03:27,609 --> 02:03:30,762
Well, I'm sure they will, sir.
I'm sure they will.

1414
02:03:32,113 --> 02:03:36,184
Now, if you are comfortable, madam, sir,

1415
02:03:36,284 --> 02:03:38,635
we may proceed.

1416
02:04:11,361 --> 02:04:13,378
- Thank you, miss.
- Thank you, sir.

1417
02:04:20,120 --> 02:04:23,347
- Your good health, sir.
- And yours, Mr Gillott.

1418
02:04:27,502 --> 02:04:28,862
- Turner.
- Sir.

1419
02:04:28,962 --> 02:04:31,322
- I have a proposition to make.
- Oh?

1420
02:04:31,422 --> 02:04:33,742
- I like your pictures.
- Well, thank you, sir.

1421
02:04:33,842 --> 02:04:35,326
My wife is especially partial

1422
02:04:35,426 --> 02:04:38,121
to your companion pieces
that grace our drawing room.

1423
02:04:38,221 --> 02:04:41,082
Please convey my felicitations
to your dear lady.

1424
02:04:41,182 --> 02:04:43,075
I will, thank you.

1425
02:04:45,103 --> 02:04:48,048
And now I wish to show you
one of my pictures.

1426
02:04:48,148 --> 02:04:50,749
Oh, indeed, sir? I am much intrigued.

1427
02:04:55,321 --> 02:04:57,223
Five-pound note, exceeding pretty.

1428
02:04:57,323 --> 02:04:58,808
Quite so.

1429
02:04:58,908 --> 02:05:01,895
For all of your paintings,
I will give you 20,000 of these,

1430
02:05:01,995 --> 02:05:04,137
100,000 pounds.

1431
02:05:05,039 --> 02:05:09,694
All your oils, your watercolours,
your drawings, your sketchbooks,

1432
02:05:09,794 --> 02:05:11,488
everything you've ever produced.

1433
02:05:11,588 --> 02:05:14,106
100,000 pounds. What do you say?

1434
02:05:18,845 --> 02:05:21,039
Turner, I am a man of wealth,

1435
02:05:21,139 --> 02:05:23,124
a self-made man.

1436
02:05:23,224 --> 02:05:25,752
Throughout the world
three quarters of everything that is written

1437
02:05:25,852 --> 02:05:28,412
is written with a Gillott pen nib,
one of my nibs.

1438
02:05:29,397 --> 02:05:31,800
I enjoy my wealth.

1439
02:05:31,900 --> 02:05:35,127
Two things delight me in my life:

1440
02:05:35,904 --> 02:05:38,681
fashioning a nib from steel
and making money,

1441
02:05:38,781 --> 02:05:42,185
and I like to spend my money
on things that give me pleasure.

1442
02:05:42,285 --> 02:05:45,396
And your pictures give me much pleasure.

1443
02:05:45,496 --> 02:05:47,941
I want them, all of them.

1444
02:05:48,041 --> 02:05:50,100
Sir...

1445
02:05:51,377 --> 02:05:54,114
with a modicum of regret

1446
02:05:54,214 --> 02:05:55,990
and somewhat of a heavy heart,

1447
02:05:56,090 --> 02:06:00,485
I'm sorry to say,
'tis out of the question.

1448
02:06:01,638 --> 02:06:03,957
- How so?
- They are bequeathed.

1449
02:06:04,057 --> 02:06:06,126
Bequeathed? To whom?

1450
02:06:06,226 --> 02:06:08,076
To the British nation, sir.

1451
02:06:08,895 --> 02:06:11,580
And what will the British nation
pay you?

1452
02:06:13,816 --> 02:06:16,761
- Nothing.
- Nothing?

1453
02:06:16,861 --> 02:06:19,597
Turner, I am offering you a price
you will never see again.

1454
02:06:19,697 --> 02:06:22,308
Indeed, sir, by which I am much humbled.

1455
02:06:22,408 --> 02:06:25,010
- Then accept my offer.
- I cannot, sir.

1456
02:06:25,828 --> 02:06:27,804
I wish to see my work...

1457
02:06:29,082 --> 02:06:31,433
displayed in one place,

1458
02:06:32,126 --> 02:06:34,279
all together,

1459
02:06:34,379 --> 02:06:35,771
viewed by the public,

1460
02:06:36,506 --> 02:06:38,398
gratis.

1461
02:06:39,550 --> 02:06:41,360
Turner, this is perverse.

1462
02:06:42,720 --> 02:06:45,123
- So be it.
- You cannot give your pictures away.

1463
02:06:45,223 --> 02:06:49,034
They are too valuable.
Don't be a fool, man. See sense.

1464
02:07:07,996 --> 02:07:10,190
- I wish you good day, sir.
- I wish you good day, sir.

1465
02:07:10,290 --> 02:07:12,974
Me damsel, be so kind
as to show the gentleman out?

1466
02:07:42,655 --> 02:07:44,349
Oh, there! Oh!

1467
02:07:44,449 --> 02:07:46,434
Oh, there.

1468
02:07:46,534 --> 02:07:48,353
Oh! Oh, there. Stay there, stay there.

1469
02:07:48,453 --> 02:07:50,772
- Don't move.
- I... slipped.

1470
02:07:50,872 --> 02:07:52,389
Oh, Lord.

1471
02:07:53,499 --> 02:07:55,902
- Oh, dear. All right?
- It's passing.

1472
02:07:56,002 --> 02:07:57,070
There, stay.

1473
02:07:57,170 --> 02:07:59,572
Stay there. Oh, my dear.

1474
02:07:59,672 --> 02:08:01,407
- Oh, there.
- No.

1475
02:08:01,507 --> 02:08:04,035
It's passed. I've got to get on.

1476
02:08:04,135 --> 02:08:07,038
No, no, no, no.
Sit ye down, sit ye down.

1477
02:08:07,138 --> 02:08:10,625
No, no. Got to get on now.
Got to get on now.

1478
02:08:10,725 --> 02:08:13,002
- No, you must sit down and rest now.
- The canvas.

1479
02:08:13,102 --> 02:08:15,338
- The canvas is damaged.
- Oh, that's all right.

1480
02:08:15,438 --> 02:08:17,840
Come and sit down. Sit ye down.

1481
02:08:17,940 --> 02:08:19,717
- There.
- Now, bustle about.

1482
02:08:19,817 --> 02:08:23,545
- Bustle about.
- Oh, there! There be no helping you!

1483
02:08:39,587 --> 02:08:41,364
"Be still, my dear Molly

1484
02:08:41,464 --> 02:08:42,907
"Dear Molly, be still

1485
02:08:43,007 --> 02:08:45,868
"No more urge that soft sigh to thy will

1486
02:08:45,968 --> 02:08:49,038
"It is anxious each wish to fulfil

1487
02:08:49,138 --> 02:08:52,166
"But I prithee, dear Molly, be still

1488
02:08:52,266 --> 02:08:56,129
"By thy lips' quivering motion I ween

1489
02:08:56,229 --> 02:09:00,499
"To the centre of...
where love lies between

1490
02:09:03,486 --> 02:09:06,806
"A passport to bliss is thy will

1491
02:09:06,906 --> 02:09:11,343
- "Yet I prithee, dear Molly, be still"
- "Dear Molly, be still"

1492
02:09:12,036 --> 02:09:15,690
"By thy eyes
when half-closed with delight

1493
02:09:15,790 --> 02:09:17,984
"That so languishing turn from the light

1494
02:09:18,084 --> 02:09:21,520
"With my kisses I'll hide 'em, I will

1495
02:09:22,505 --> 02:09:27,160
- "Yet, prithee, dear Molly, be still"
- "Yet, prithee, dear Molly, be still"

1496
02:09:27,260 --> 02:09:30,121
"By thy bosom so throbbing with truth

1497
02:09:30,221 --> 02:09:35,158
"Its short heavings to me...

02:09:36,310 --> 02:09:40,006
"By the half-blushing mark on each hill

02:09:40,106 --> 02:09:43,875
"Oh, my Molly, dear Molly, be still."

1500
02:11:52,780 --> 02:11:54,765
Thank you. How many do you want?

1501
02:11:54,865 --> 02:11:56,299
- One, please.
- One?

1502
02:11:58,160 --> 02:11:59,761
There you go.

1503
02:12:17,513 --> 02:12:18,822
There.

1504
02:12:22,768 --> 02:12:24,650
What ails thee?

1505
02:12:24,921 --> 02:12:26,746
Let me take your hat.

1506
02:12:31,652 --> 02:12:33,179
Here.

1507
02:12:33,279 --> 02:12:36,224
- My sketchbook.
- Oh.

1508
02:12:36,324 --> 02:12:39,393
- It's not here.
- 'Tis in your other pocket, then?

1509
02:12:39,493 --> 02:12:42,355
- No, it's not.
- Don't ye worry about it now.

1510
02:12:42,455 --> 02:12:45,598
'Twill be somewhere.
We can look for it later.

1511
02:12:46,959 --> 02:12:48,945
Where is the canvas?

1512
02:12:49,045 --> 02:12:52,021
'Tis behind you, dear, on the chair.

1513
02:12:56,010 --> 02:12:58,528
- You want I should take it upstairs?
- What?

1514
02:12:59,347 --> 02:13:00,780
Your canvas.

1515
02:13:01,474 --> 02:13:03,366
No, no, no, no, no.

1516
02:13:07,480 --> 02:13:09,247
I'll get you a drink.

1517
02:13:15,479 --> 02:13:17,056
There.

1518
02:13:24,955 --> 02:13:26,055
So...

1519
02:13:27,750 --> 02:13:31,070
where have you been today?

1520
02:13:31,170 --> 02:13:33,819
Did you go back to Hyde Park?

1521
02:13:36,592 --> 02:13:38,651
How be it all progressing?

1522
02:13:40,179 --> 02:13:42,572
It's an engineering phenomenon.

1523
02:13:43,849 --> 02:13:47,118
Crystal pane upon crystal pane,

1524
02:13:47,895 --> 02:13:49,922
reaching up beyond the clouds.

1525
02:13:50,022 --> 02:13:52,508
'Twill be a marvel to behold.

1526
02:13:54,068 --> 02:13:56,127
It's a glass cathedral.

1527
02:13:59,699 --> 02:14:01,341
It's the one...

1528
02:14:03,444 --> 02:14:04,645
Oh, here.

1529
02:14:14,171 --> 02:14:16,022
Oh, there.

1530
02:14:17,883 --> 02:14:19,575
Oh, there.

1531
02:14:30,563 --> 02:14:33,841
So bad! Look at your messings.

1532
02:14:35,234 --> 02:14:37,418
Naughty pussy.

1533
02:14:41,574 --> 02:14:43,258
I don't know!

1534
02:15:23,991 --> 02:15:27,176
Now, dear, here be good Dr Price for ye.

1535
02:15:27,953 --> 02:15:30,439
He has come all the way from Margate.

1536
02:15:30,539 --> 02:15:32,942
- Dr Price.
- Good morning, Turner.

1537
02:15:33,042 --> 02:15:34,902
If there be anything
you do need, Doctor...

1538
02:15:35,002 --> 02:15:38,354
- Thank you, Mrs Booth.
- ...I shall be downstairs.

1539
02:15:39,173 --> 02:15:42,525
Now, my dear Turner,
how are you feeling?

1540
02:15:42,885 --> 02:15:45,913
Somewhat weakened, sir.

1541
02:15:46,013 --> 02:15:47,822
I'm so sorry.

1542
02:15:52,645 --> 02:15:54,547
We all miss you in Margate.

1543
02:15:59,109 --> 02:16:01,095
Margate, yes.

1544
02:16:01,195 --> 02:16:02,712
Are you in pain?

1545
02:16:03,405 --> 02:16:04,797
Here.

1546
02:16:05,491 --> 02:16:07,675
- Shortness of breath?
- Yes.

1547
02:16:08,661 --> 02:16:10,261
Now, then...

1548
02:16:12,998 --> 02:16:15,234
Did you come up on the railway?

1549
02:16:15,334 --> 02:16:19,864
I did, and the truth is,
I can never travel by train

1550
02:16:19,964 --> 02:16:22,450
without recalling
your miraculous painting.

1551
02:16:33,018 --> 02:16:37,789
My dear Turner, I am obliged to inform you
that your condition is grave.

1552
02:16:39,984 --> 02:16:42,136
Your days are numbered

1553
02:16:42,236 --> 02:16:45,264
and if you have affairs
to attend to in this world

1554
02:16:45,364 --> 02:16:49,634
you should do so now
and prepare yourself for the next.

1555
02:16:50,244 --> 02:16:51,719
Dr Price...

1556
02:16:53,372 --> 02:16:55,941
with the utmost respect,

1557
02:16:56,041 --> 02:17:00,905
may I suggest you take yourself
downstairs to Mrs Booth,

1558
02:17:01,005 --> 02:17:04,617
avail yourself
of a large glass of sherry,

1559
02:17:04,717 --> 02:17:08,820
come back up here
and reassess your opinion?

1560
02:17:10,055 --> 02:17:13,157
No, sir, I'm afraid
I shan't be doing that.

1561
02:17:18,397 --> 02:17:21,708
So I'm to become a non-entity.

1562
02:17:23,068 --> 02:17:26,347
I do not understand exactly
what you mean by a non-entity.

1563
02:17:33,579 --> 02:17:36,357
- Good day to you, Doctor.
- Good day, Mrs Booth. Thank you.

1564
02:17:36,457 --> 02:17:39,109
Oh, I shall send out
for the laudanum directly.

1565
02:17:39,209 --> 02:17:41,028
Splendid.
He couldn't be in better hands.

1566
02:17:41,128 --> 02:17:42,571
I do my best.

1567
02:17:42,671 --> 02:17:45,991
So, will you be taking the boat back
from Chelsea Pier there?

1568
02:17:46,091 --> 02:17:48,744
Indeed. I shall catch the midday train
from Charing Cross.

1569
02:17:48,844 --> 02:17:52,373
Well, I do wish'ee a safe journey,
and I thank you, Doctor.

1570
02:17:52,473 --> 02:17:54,323
I shall return shortly.

1571
02:18:35,182 --> 02:18:36,699
Number six.

1572
02:18:56,286 --> 02:18:57,730
- I need a rest.
- Pardon?

1573
02:18:57,830 --> 02:18:59,430
I need a rest.

1574
02:19:06,005 --> 02:19:08,106
Can we help, my dear?

1575
02:19:12,136 --> 02:19:15,956
- I'm looking for an old gentleman.
- An old gentleman?

1576
02:19:16,056 --> 02:19:19,335
- Do you have a name?
- There's a lot of old gentlemen round here.

1577
02:19:19,435 --> 02:19:21,545
- He lives next door.
- Number six.

1578
02:19:21,645 --> 02:19:25,581
There is an old gentleman
lives next-door with his good lady wife.

1579
02:19:26,483 --> 02:19:28,793
They say he has the sickness.

1580
02:19:30,821 --> 02:19:32,588
Are you a relative?

1581
02:19:37,661 --> 02:19:39,345
No matter.

1582
02:19:40,581 --> 02:19:42,274
- Good day.
- Good day.

1583
02:19:42,374 --> 02:19:43,641
Good day.

1584
02:20:01,364 --> 02:20:04,505
No, 'tis I. 'Tis I. There!

1585
02:20:04,605 --> 02:20:07,331
'tis I.

1586
02:20:11,570 --> 02:20:14,473
Poor, wretched soul.

1587
02:20:14,573 --> 02:20:16,674
She be drowned dead.

1588
02:20:17,659 --> 02:20:19,395
There.

1589
02:20:19,495 --> 02:20:22,388
The suffering she must have seen.

1590
02:20:24,917 --> 02:20:27,643
If there be a God, he be a cruel one.

1591
02:20:32,341 --> 02:20:36,120
- What are you doing?
- I have to sketch her.

1592
02:20:36,220 --> 02:20:39,623
Get back into bed now,
Joseph Mallord William Turner!

1593
02:20:39,723 --> 02:20:43,826
No, no, no, no, no, no.
There be no shoes on your feet!

1594
02:20:54,947 --> 02:20:56,214
Poor creature.

1595
02:21:09,044 --> 02:21:11,196
Oh, there. Let me take you in.

1596
02:21:11,296 --> 02:21:12,823
There... No!

1597
02:21:12,923 --> 02:21:15,659
Come in. You can finish that later.

1598
02:21:54,381 --> 02:21:56,399
Me damsel...

1599
02:22:16,778 --> 02:22:19,171
The sun is God.
