00:00Within all small community, rivalries ran deep.
00:13What's going on here?
00:15A few sparrows in a hedge was an underkeep with business, I might tell you.
00:19Hamlet folk by the estate.
00:22I've a right finger poaching.
00:25If I wanted to go poaching, I know where the game is and how to get them.
00:28So why are you eating a few skinny sparrows?
00:31Well, so I'll enjoy the plump birds all the more when I fancy one.
00:34Well, maybe you'd like to try your hand.
00:39I might.
00:40Alfie, leave it be. Spadering's good enough for poor folk.
00:44I'll be waiting for you.
00:46The row that those boys had that autumn day may have been about poaching.
00:51But the true rivalry was about what was in their hearts.
00:54And the discovery in a graveyard of a mysterious parcel wrapped in an old newspaper
01:01was about to open up Miss Lane's own troubled heart.
01:05ORCHESTRA PLAYS
01:41The day finally came when Caroline arrived home from prison.
01:49And she must have wondered what kind of welcome the Hamlet and her family would give her.
02:00Ma!
02:06It's good to have you back, Ma.
02:07I think you can do better on that, son.
02:09Come on, give your Ma a kiss.
02:12Oh, come on.
02:15Let's get you a dinner on this one.
02:17Oh, all done, I see.
02:21Well, that's just as well.
02:23Look at you.
02:25All washed and cleaner than I've ever seen.
02:28Wait.
02:30Who's taking all the laughter out of this house?
02:32Who's that?
02:34Who's that?
02:34Go on!
02:43Ah, Miss Ellison.
02:46The rectory baby box has been left here for you to collect.
02:48Do come through.
02:49Thank you, Miss Ellison.
02:50Thank you, Miss Ellison.
02:54I'm taking the box over to Lark Rise for Mrs. Arliss's confinement.
02:59I thought that it should not go out until the baby arrives.
03:02It occurred to me that Mrs. Arliss might appreciate something to cheer her up on her return home.
03:08Something to concentrate her mind on and all.
03:11Thank you, Zilla.
03:13The Ellison family christening robes.
03:17These go back four generations.
03:20And still so beautiful.
03:23Now, this is quite heavy.
03:26Would you like Thomas to give you a hand with it into the carriage?
03:29Oh, well, that would be most appreciated.
03:33Thomas!
03:40He must have taken out the second delivery already.
03:43Oh, well.
03:45Miss Margaret,
03:46would you care to join us here for tea on Thursday?
04:03Oh, well, that's good.
04:33I found it in the graveyard.
04:39That was lying on the grave, but hidden under some bushes.
04:44Like a secret.
04:46What is it?
04:54That's Adam and Eve.
04:58There's a strangeness to it.
04:59Makes my skin shiver.
05:01I don't think we want to have that thing in the house.
05:05The tree of knowledge.
05:08Well, if anything has a message, that does.
05:13And that's got me curious.
05:14Look, wrapped in an old Candleford newspaper.
05:23I should take it to Miss Lane, see if she can make sense
05:26of where it's come from.
05:27She can have it.
05:29Now, do we want these birds roasted or cooked in one
05:33of your best puddings, my dear?
05:35And you're coming to Candleford with me.
05:39You can sell a few nuts, and we'll call it a day out.
05:59And you walk right past me.
06:02Inches away.
06:04It took me all my strength not to laugh out loud.
06:08That's better than a few sparrows off.
06:09I'm telling you.
06:15Ma'am?
06:18Thomas, I have done it again, meddling in other people's business.
06:24I'm such a terrible troublemaker.
06:26You're too hard on yourself, ma'am.
06:28you usually meddle for good reason and most often with a favourable outcome I'm
06:34glad you think so because it's your business I've been meddling in I have
06:40invited miss Ellison to tea on Thursday
06:44tea here miss Ellison and myself at the table in front of other people your
06:56friends Thomas miss Lane you have placed me in an intolerable position it's just I
07:05felt so sorry for her I could sense that she was so eager to see you miss Lane I
07:11find myself in such a state of ill-temper I feel I must remove myself before I say
07:17something on Christian mr. and mrs. Taro there's something antique looking about the human figures
07:31naked looking at all it has the air of a holy relic do you know I think this is human hair stitched on to
07:41the heads of Adam and Eve I can't take my eyes off it keep asking myself what is it what does it
07:48mean and where did it come from this newspaper is more than 40 years old do you suppose it's been
07:58lying in the graveyard for all this time you know there for another 40 years I don't like it do
08:05you remember the name on the grave where you found it mrs. Taro Harold Wigmore same name as my brother
08:11you see Harold not Wigmore I read in the Gazette a few weeks ago about a man in Kidlington who found
08:19some wood carvings a curiosity and it fetched quite a sum at auction five pounds I seem to recall that's
08:27ours we found it that's ours no sir Timothy can tell us all about the legalities of that I'm sure
08:33he'll be calling in on us in a short while Caroline it's good to see you oh thank you
08:41Emma is there anything you need uh two shillings under my pillow my Walter in my bed and a wholesome
08:48carriage to lift the weight off my feet if you can manage it I'll see what I can do has everything
08:53been I mean with Alf and the little ones you can be proud of Alf you think I in Emma I can truly tell
09:02you I've come out of that place with something I didn't go in with I am decided to be entirely
09:07different Caroline perhaps it's not best to give yourself too tall a mountain to go I avoid it to
09:14myself I will not speak unless I can be civil and gracious well perhaps gracious will come later I will
09:21not cuss nor slander ale shall not pass my lips throwing up my skirts is a thing of the past I've seen
09:29where gallivanting gets me and I'm cured of it no more borrowing no spending beyond my means
09:34attitude is my problem Emma so I will greet life with humility and gratitude from now on
09:43sounds like quite a challenge for even the best of souls you see if I don't I've always wanted to be
09:51like you Emma oh and now I shall be one egg from each nest now Edmund you know the rule he wants to
10:07make a whole string of them for his ma so he shall it'll take a while longer that's all why pot it
10:14ain't so much what it does to the chaffinch when you take them all is what it does to you one egg from
10:20each nest every father laid down the same law but maybe something in my father's voice made Edmund
10:27want to defy him legally you must register it as found with Constable Patterson then he must check
10:36that it hasn't been reported lost or stolen and then an appropriate amount of time must be allocated
10:41to enable its owner to come forward and claim it sir how long sir sometimes a year sometimes you could
10:52deal less than that depending on the circumstances well sir the circumstances obviously indicate that
10:58it was long abandoned it may have been the proceeds of some burglary perhaps thrown away in haste in the
11:04graveyard by the villains as they made their escape and what do you pay such supposition on Laura other
11:10than an over excitable imagination fired up by reading too many novels it's a rather intriguing piece can we
11:17keep hold of it your lordship while Constable Patterson does the necessary I don't see why not provided
11:24everything is done by the book when everything is done by the book sir will it be ours to do with
11:30as we wish that is the law yes I could send off a description of it to the auction house and obtain
11:40an initial valuation if you would like that mrs. Torrow you tell them that that's worth more than any
11:45wood carving that's hadam and heave with human hair
11:51Timothy I'm afraid I won't be able to join you writing tomorrow oh Friday then Friday is not
12:02possible either and I think perhaps it might be best if you weren't to spend so much time in the post
12:09office yes I understand I don't think you do understand well I assumed it was some no I'm sorry
12:21it's let's stop apologizing you are going to be a father you have every right to be happy and to show
12:28it I've said too much I always say too much I assumed it was because of Mr. Delafield well yes I suppose
12:44it is now I think we have both said too much either way it is decided we should keep our distance
12:58I found this in the lane this morning while you were at school
13:09it's the cruelty of it that's unnecessary
13:13I didn't do it
13:16Evan I'm asking
13:18I'll find out I'll get it out the other boys now did you destroy this nest
13:22leave the lad alone a chaffinch don't have no feelings
13:26it's not just about the bird anymore it's about my son telling his pa the truth
13:30it's only a nest
13:32is that what you see
13:35only a nest
13:37Robert you have the truth out of the child let's not make too much of it
13:41Evan if you lie to your pa you will lie to the world and that ain't no way to live
13:44I've seen where lies get people and it's not a life you want I promise you
13:49Robert don't make such heavy weather of it
13:52children will tell tales it's just their nature
13:55and so they must learn by it
13:57your pa's had his most handsome when he's righteous
14:07I wish he wasn't
14:10but he is
14:12five pounds
14:17what do you suppose five pounds will buy
14:22well you could set a price on such a marvellous thing as this is
14:27you're right
14:29it could be worth more
14:32such a devious thing is bound to bring the best price
14:36we ought to have it checked over by some of those clever London experts
14:42we don't want to get robbed out of what's ours
14:45I'll just sit here and gaze at it a bit
14:48till it speaks to me
14:51look at this old place of ours
14:53didn't I always say we could do better
14:56didn't I always say that
14:57no you didn't
14:58well I thought it
14:59Queenie my dear
15:01I can picture us in a pretty little home
15:03roasted bird for supper every night of the week
15:06ham on Sundays
15:07but not here in Larkroy's mind
15:09no
15:09on the skirts of Candleford
15:12that's where we're destined
15:14this thing here is going to change our lives
15:18what are you doing here
15:35watching my girl grow before my very eyes
15:38can you stop please
15:40you grow another inch
15:41I'll lose you all together
15:42nah don't listen to me Laura
15:44listen to your old pa
15:46I would still be stuck in that little hamlet of ours
15:48suppose we all have to swallow a speck of dust
15:52during our time here on this earth
15:54Matthew
15:54my knife
16:00it's gone
16:01it was here I know it was
16:04I remember our Laura sitting on my lap
16:08wearing this same dress
16:10and our Ralph
16:11and the frills was time worn then
16:14oh this bonnet is so old fashioned
16:17I'm sure I must have had it on my head
16:20oh and every arse that's ever walked up the lane
16:25has been wrapped in these napkins
16:27I don't want my baby to be jigged out
16:30in
16:30in anything other than the rectory box clothes
16:36can you forgive my cussing Miss Ellison
16:39there's no call for me to be saying arse
16:42in front of the reverend's daughter
16:44arse is not a civil word
16:47even though we all has one
16:50and some of us has two
16:51my own arse is quite as
16:53yes sorry
16:54sorry yeah
16:55as I was going to say
16:57there's what you might call
16:59a whole hamlet history in this box
17:02for which I'm most grateful Miss Ellison
17:05every family in the hamlet has enjoyed the loan of the box
17:08and I'm glad to say made good use of it
17:10and what about use Margaret
17:13that fine old christening girl must make you feel broody don't it
17:18goodness
17:21you're still young and attractive
17:24mmm
17:25and
17:26available
17:27you told me a while ago that Thomas Brown had sent you a poem
17:31more than likely charged you three and six for it did he
17:35has Thomas made any more advances
17:40but
17:44Miss Lane has invited me to tea at the post office
17:47why that's splendid
17:48I shan't go
17:50why ever not
17:51if I were to miss tea at the rectory
17:54my father would want to know why he had not been invited
17:57well can't you
17:59just this once asked to be excused without saying why
18:03he would interrogate me and
18:10I'm afraid I can't lie to him
18:12Robert says
18:15your father will outlive us all
18:18now that's far too long for any woman to keep her own bed warm
18:22sorry
18:23sorry
18:24someone's been poaching answer at Timothy's estate
18:31I thought you said you were ready and waiting if anyone dared
18:34but you made it sound like it was impossible
18:37any fool can get lucky
18:40once
18:41well maybe they're just quicker than you
18:44whoever they are
18:46well maybe that's what they think
18:48which is why they'll get caught if they're foolish enough to do it again
18:53well
18:54maybe they've got what they wanted now
18:57could be so
18:58if they know they met their match
19:00well they're too afraid to put themselves to the test
19:04could be
19:06oh I'm sorry to disturb you
19:17no come in
19:19that's only our morning pal
19:21what brings you to that Christ Dorcas
19:24well I wondered if I might borrow the embroidery
19:27I have an idea how we might learn a little more about it
19:29I've been looking at it
19:31see that's not just any picture
19:32that's a sin
19:33like it's a warning
19:35but I can't fathom what that warning might be
19:38well perhaps it's best not to concern yourself too much with what it means
19:41it could be worth five pounds or more
19:43and that's why you're here is it Miss Lane because you're not concerned with what it means
19:47five pounds that thing
19:50and you found it in a graveyard
19:52why does the good luck never fall on them that needs it most
19:56probably because it's busy falling on them that deserve it most
20:05it's good to see you back with us Mrs Arliss
20:08and I'm very grateful to be sitting here Miss Lane
20:11Caroline was just about to have her tea leaves read
20:14I'm not in the mood for it anymore
20:15the only luck I have is bad luck
20:18what about you Dorcas?
20:20me? oh no
20:21reading leaves isn't my cup of tea
20:23what a queenie has quite a gift for it
20:27yeah come on
20:28come on sit down Dorcas
20:30well
20:32could do no harm can it
20:34right
20:42drink the tea
20:47and leave a little drop in the bottom of the cup
20:50Lordy
21:03an ostrich
21:05what does an ostrich mean?
21:09I know you can see a zebra
21:11a zebra
21:13a zebra
21:14I don't understand why are you all reacting like this
21:17well an ostrich means travel
21:18I've never been one for travel
21:21I like it so much where I am
21:23and a zebra means
21:25there's to be an adventure overseas
21:27see here
21:32the shape of an hourglass
21:35you need to make a decision
21:38I can't think of any
21:41pressing decisions I have on my mind
21:44look at the grave where the panel is discovered
22:10Harold Wigmore
22:12died January the 1st
22:141843
22:15I might have known you'd be ahead of me
22:17the newspaper in which the panel was wrapped
22:20is dated January the 7th
22:22it's just six days after he died
22:24why are you doing this?
22:29the mystery of it has got the better of me I'm afraid
22:31well I have an idea how I might discover more about the panel
22:35oh I doubt the panel will give up its secrets
22:37no the only way to unravel this is to investigate Wigmore
22:40you are a little too sure of yourself
22:42one only has to look at the embroidery to see it holds the key to this mystery
22:46so I shall have the Mrs. Pratt examine it
22:49why don't I find out about Wigmore
22:52and you pursue the meaning of the panel
22:54then we will see
22:57we will
23:02Philip you can't be sure it was Alf
23:08I don't think he would
23:10well I'll catch him
23:11and then we'll see
23:12why do you boys have to turn everything into a fight?
23:18I'm only doing my job
23:20anyways Marge is only just out of prison
23:22and he'll be heading the other way
23:24yeah and if you catch Alf and he's in trouble
23:27it'll be all my fault
23:28it wasn't
23:30Edmund
23:35did you take my knife?
23:41what a thing to say
23:42why do you suppose he's taken your knife?
23:44boy that is a valuable tool
23:45it has an ivory handle
23:47and I want to know if you've taken it
23:48don't look to her
23:51you face me and give me an answer
23:53leave the lad alone
23:55you probably dropped your precious ivory handle in the privy
23:59you're telling me how to raise my own children Caroline
24:00your trouble Robert Timmons is
24:02is nothing compared to the trouble I have with my interfering mouth
24:07Edmund
24:09you respect what your pa tells you
24:11I didn't take the knife
24:15he lied to me about the nest
24:16and what about the knife?
24:18are you lying to me about that too?
24:20Robert don't say that
24:21why are you behaving like this?
24:23it's too much
24:24I will not have my son heading for a life of trouble
24:26now you listen to me lad
24:27I will get the truth out of you
24:29and I will teach you to be an honest man
24:32if I have to take my belt to you
24:33now there's no supper for you
24:36go on to bed
24:37it's a fine piece of needlework
24:45the finest
24:46so you would say it was a professional hand that made this
24:50a seamstress of the highest quality
24:54and am I right in thinking that Adam and Eve have human hair?
25:01they do
25:02why?
25:09perhaps a twisted sense of authenticity
25:12where to stop
25:15genuine eyelashes
25:17real ears
25:19I sense something more of a purpose of devotion
25:22oh don't be so ridiculous Ruby
25:24why would a gifted needlewoman put her arts to such a displeasing article?
25:31that's what I'm trying to discover
25:33what do you mean by devotion Ruby?
25:37Paul and I sew every day
25:39and you have to put a certain amount of dedication
25:42some might say love into every stitch
25:44there's a calling in what we do
25:47it's quite different from selling a stamp or two
25:50this seamstress had something particular she wished to express
25:56see
25:57the stitching has faded in places
26:01you can still see evidence of the work being done over a period of time
26:06as though she'd put it down
26:09yes
26:10and this devotion
26:13do you think it might be religious
26:16given the subject matter?
26:19Adam and Eve
26:20man and a woman
26:24now it
26:26it feels
26:28personal
26:30because for a needlewoman
26:34embroidery
26:36it's like the poet taking up the pen
26:39it expresses her
26:42deepest longing
26:43you know Philip's determined to catch you
27:08please tell me you won't go back poaching on the manor grounds
27:13he tells you I've been thieving and you believe him
27:16why is that?
27:19well have you?
27:22I've never lied to you before and I won't start now
27:25not because of him
27:26just think of the consequences if you're caught Alf
27:29and what is it to you?
27:33is this why you're doing it?
27:35to show that you're better than him
27:37to try and come between Philip and me
27:39you've got it all upside down Laura
27:41before he came along
27:43you and me were as close as close can be
27:45now look at us
27:48you have a think about why that might be
27:52just promise me
27:57you won't go back poaching
27:58perhaps Edmund went out into the woods poaching
28:26simply because he wanted to be like Alf
28:28but I felt as if he did it to defy my father
28:32yeah
28:37so
28:45so
28:50Let's go.
29:20Let's go.
29:50I knew setting one's eyes upon something so sordid would have its consequences.
29:58No, it wasn't sordid.
30:02It was sad.
30:04Oh, well, now, we'll have some hot milk and go back to bed, and you can tell me about
30:15the dream, if that helps.
30:17She was in the shop, the seamstress.
30:28But in my dream, she was old.
30:32She wanted me to have the embroidery.
30:36I felt compelled to take it because it was a warning.
30:42Your sadness made my skin shiver.
30:47Ruby, you need pacifying.
30:49I will take it to see Dr Ingram's first thing in the morning.
30:52You must tell Miss Lane.
30:54It might be significant.
30:57Do you want us to look fools before the whole town?
31:00Ruby Pratt, possessed by a piece of needlework.
31:04We will not tell Miss Lane.
31:06We will go back to sleep and forget this grisly business.
31:09Well, come along.
31:20Found it behind the woodpile.
31:24Must have fallen down there.
31:28You're saying that, the cover for Edmund?
31:30Don't say such a thing.
31:32Did he give it to you?
31:32Is that it?
31:34Are you calling your own wife a liar now?
31:36Robert, I don't understand why it has hold of you this way.
31:42I see how it's churning you up.
31:44The anger in your eyes.
31:47That's not a father's obligation, I see.
31:52Robert.
31:53My younger brother started this way.
31:55A small lie, a stolen thing or two,
31:57and bit by bit I watched him slide into a life of ruin.
32:00I've always been haunted by the thought
32:02I could have done something more to stop him.
32:03But Edmund is not your brother.
32:06He ain't made that way.
32:08Robert, I've seen it in his eyes
32:09the last few days.
32:12He's afraid of you.
32:16And if you lose him,
32:19you will regret it for the rest of your life.
32:27You just have to be the power you are.
32:30And Edmund will learn all he needs
32:32just from watching you.
32:34And thus sendeth today's sermon.
32:44A seamstress?
32:45According to Ruby and Pearl?
32:47Well, if Wigmore was a furrier,
32:48that does seem to be a connection.
32:51It's possible she worked for him.
32:53Yes, but it's not his wife.
32:57Wigmore married well,
32:58and his widow survived him.
33:02Perhaps we're making too much of it.
33:04I chastised Laura for concocting fantasies
33:07out of nothing.
33:08We're no better.
33:09If we can get hold of the names
33:10of the seamstresses who worked for Wigmore,
33:12that might tell us something.
33:14He had three sons, you know,
33:15but they all moved away.
33:16Which only leaves us with the parish records,
33:19what the local elders remember
33:20in the newspapers of the time.
33:26What are we doing here?
33:28We agreed not to see one another.
33:30But we have a legitimate reason.
33:38The panel.
33:42Edmund.
33:45I was too hard on you last night.
33:48Perhaps it was the fear
33:49that put the whip in my tongue.
33:52I watched my own brother come to grief
33:54through lying and seething.
33:57Edmund, your ma found my knife.
34:01As for the eggs,
34:03we'll go out together,
34:04you and me, this common sun.
34:06See if we can't reach a swallow's nest.
34:08Not to destroy mine,
34:09but to admire.
34:14What do you say, boy?
34:30Miss Ellison?
34:43Mr. Brown.
34:44I am walking.
34:48And I.
34:50I had a fancy foursome air.
34:53I was seeking a few moments
34:55of contemplation.
34:57Please don't let me disturb you.
35:02Miss Ellison?
35:03Yes?
35:04I wonder.
35:09Yes?
35:11Perhaps we could walk together.
35:14That would be most pleasant.
35:18Perhaps tomorrow evening, then.
35:21Oh.
35:23Well, that would be...
35:25I shall be here.
35:29After tea.
35:31Till then.
35:36Well...
35:46What is it?
35:55I have a chill.
35:56I'll be fine.
35:57Oh, tell me.
36:00I... I had the same dream.
36:06And more.
36:08In my dream, she spoke.
36:12She said,
36:14we will be together now.
36:21It's only a dream.
36:23And dreams are no more than mere frippery.
36:26No, Pearl. This thing is talking to us and we must listen.
36:30We must tell Miss Lane.
36:31We most certainly will not indulge in such emotional weakness.
36:36We have a shop to run.
36:46I ain't going to be stinting with them that used to be my friends and neighbours.
36:52I'll stand a beer for any man.
36:54You might want to get your hands on the money first, Twister.
36:58Sir Timothy himself says we have the law on our side.
37:02What are you going to do with so much money, Twister?
37:05Me and Queenie are going to have ourselves a new life on the skirts of Candleford.
37:11I'm going to exchange this old hat for a shiny new one.
37:15You know what? Don't make you belong, Twister.
37:18Ten pound don't make you belong.
37:19You're always expounding, Robert Timmons, how poor folk are as good as any counter-jumpers.
37:25We might know it.
37:27I'm not so sure they do.
37:29You ought to take a care, Twister Turrell.
37:32You won't be one of us and you won't be one of them.
37:35You might find yourself nowhere.
37:36You're all jealous, that's all.
37:39A man's got a bit of wealth and you don't like it.
37:42That's the problem with poor folk.
37:44They've got no charity then.
37:52You.
37:54I have you now.
37:57Bold words.
37:59He's been poaching on the manor grounds.
38:03You see him?
38:05You catch him at it?
38:06No, I didn't.
38:07He was cut.
38:11He fell.
38:12It's a fair bit of blood.
38:14It's his blood.
38:16He'll be cut and that'll prove I'm right.
38:17If you're right, you fetch a constable and you lay charges.
38:20I want to see now.
38:23Let him show me.
38:24Let him show all of you.
38:27Alf?
38:31I have no cut.
38:35Let him show me.
38:38If it's true, then let him take his shirt off.
38:44Son, you've said enough.
38:46Know your place.
38:48Know my place?
38:51I'm the squire's underkeeper who's just a...
38:54a Lark-Roy's field boy!
38:56I am no more Lark-Roy's stonemason!
38:59Don't you come in here looking down your nose at us.
39:02If you want to lay charges, you fetch a constable.
39:04Would you like me to take my trousers down now?
39:11He's wrong for you.
39:26Par, you don't know Philip.
39:27I've seen enough of him.
39:29There must be a reason.
39:30Something happened.
39:34It's Alf, isn't it?
39:36The underkeeper marches into Lark-Roy's and talks to us like he owns the place.
39:39What?
39:43What is it?
39:46I must be getting back.
39:48Miss Lena want me to take over.
39:50Laura, what is that look on your face?
39:51I'm your pa, you tell me.
39:53People say that same thing about you.
39:57Robert Timmons.
39:58He walks down the road like he owns one side and he's about to buy the other side.
40:12They're envious of your pride, Par, that's all.
40:14The underkeeper is a vindictive sort.
40:19There is something selfish about him.
40:20I'm telling you to stay away from him.
40:22Par, please don't tell me what I must and mustn't feel.
40:25You're to tell him you can't see him anymore.
40:26Do you understand?
40:27Do you understand?
40:44A letter from Mrs Arliss.
41:02From overseas.
41:04Oh, I will take it over to her.
41:06I need some air and a ride out will do me good.
41:09And I'm sure she would appreciate any little piece of encouragement at this time.
41:14I need some air and a ride out will do me good.
41:44My darling dear.
41:49Oh, darling dear don't mean much from across an ocean or two.
41:54Our ship is heading homeward.
41:58And God willing, I'll be with you before the baby is born.
42:02Oh, perhaps you'd better read that last bit again, Miss Lane.
42:07I will be with you before...
42:08Miss Lane!
42:09I must apologise to you.
42:13I have misguided you with the tea leaves.
42:16Oh, thank heavens.
42:18It wasn't a zebra.
42:19I won't be joining the Navy after all.
42:21It was a zebra, but it weren't no ostrich I saw.
42:24I wasn't quite certain at the time, and it's been on my mind to tell you what was in the leaves.
42:32I've looked a dozen times a day at it, and now I am certain.
42:37It was a raven.
42:39Mrs. Turrell, the look on your face, you're making me feel afraid.
42:52Oh, I am sorry, Miss Lane.
42:56But I must tell what I saw.
43:00It's bad news.
43:02A death.
43:05That leads to new beginnings.
43:12You're hurt.
43:14Edmund, you have to tell your pa about this.
43:17The underkeeper knows there was someone hurt out there.
43:19I'm scared.
43:21He'll be so angry.
43:22I'll say it was my doing.
43:24I'll take the blame.
43:26Edmund, if you don't tell him, I will.
43:32Leave me alone.
43:49Make a wish.
43:58Go on.
43:59Anything you want.
44:01Go on.
44:01Wish for it, and you shall have it.
44:04I will make it happen for you.
44:06What is it you would wish for more than anything else on this earth?
44:11Go on.
44:12The one thing.
44:14The one person you'd like to see walk back through that door.
44:18What's the matter with you?
44:20Don't you want to see your pa home?
44:22Oh, I've said it.
44:25Your pa's coming home for a sea.
44:27Isn't that the best news?
44:29Pearl, don't you find it disconcerting that I had the dream,
44:38and then you had the very same dream?
44:41Dreams are not contagious, Ruby.
44:44It was merely your mention of this grotesque business
44:47that has disturbed my mental equipoise.
44:51Pearl, I understand your point of view.
44:54I only ask that you hear mine.
45:00Go on.
45:03What I'm wondering is if the dreams have a purpose,
45:07a message for us to do something.
45:10Hmm.
45:11And if we don't act, they may continue to haunt us.
45:18If it would put your mind at rest,
45:21we will speak with Miss Lane.
45:24Sir.
45:27It was me that's poaching on the manor grounds.
45:31I know it.
45:35You can smell the bird cooking all the way across the hamlet.
45:40You take care, Alf.
45:42One thin quarter's a hell of a price to pay for one meal.
45:45But that's not the worst of it, sir.
45:48There's something more I have to tell you.
45:52Emma!
45:53Where is Edmund?
45:58I ain't seen him all afternoon.
46:00What's the matter?
46:01What have I done?
46:03Edmund is hurt.
46:04We have to find him.
46:06Her name was Constance Jeffers.
46:13She was a seamstress.
46:14One of the best, clearly.
46:17Yes, she worked for Harold Wigmore.
46:19Now, the reason she appears in these newspapers is that just days after Wigmore was buried,
46:26Miss Jeffers left her cottage, leaving the door wide open,
46:29and was never seen nor heard of again.
46:33Oh!
46:36In our dreams, she was trying to give the panel to Pearl and me.
46:41She left her a message on his grave.
46:45An act of simple devotion.
46:49Indeed, a spinster devoted to Harold Wigmore.
46:52There was no impropriety, though.
46:57No, all the locals I spoke to all said that Wigmore was a devoted father and husband.
47:02A Constance had suitors, but none would tempt her to marriage.
47:07Seems her heart was spoken for.
47:10The panel seems to have been made over a period of years.
47:13A life's work.
47:15She must have been something of an obsessive, wouldn't you say?
47:19Giving her her life over to waiting for a married man.
47:25She wasn't waiting.
47:31She left it by his grave and vanished.
47:37Vanished.
47:47That's it.
47:49The warning.
47:52The vanishing.
47:57So, Mrs. Turrell, the panel is now yours.
48:01Sir, as much as I like the sound of five pounds,
48:06I don't want to be at the mercy of that thing.
48:11We might vanish.
48:20Perhaps it ought to go back where it came from.
48:24Where it belongs.
48:25I shall lay it down where Constance left him.
48:34Philip, what's happened between you and my pa?
48:47Philip, what's happened between you and my pa?
49:02He's taken against you so.
49:04I know I'm right about that, Arliss.
49:06But there weren't a scratch on him.
49:08You're not making any sense.
49:12I don't understand.
49:13I heard a cry in the woods.
49:16Someone was hurt.
49:20There must have been someone else out there with him.
49:28Edmund!
49:31Edmund!
49:31Edmund!
49:34Edmund!
49:35Edmund!
49:35Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:36Edmund!
49:37Edmund!
49:38Edmund!
49:39Edmund!
49:40Edmund!
49:41Edmund!
49:42Edmund!
49:43Edmund!
49:44Edmund!
49:45Edmund!
49:46Edmund!
49:47Edmund!
49:48Edmund!
49:49Edmund!
49:50Edmund!
49:51Edmund!
49:52Edmund!
49:53Edmund!
49:54Edmund!
49:55Edmund!
49:56Edmund!
49:57Edmund!
49:58Edmund!
49:59Edmund!
50:00Edmund!
50:01Edmund!
50:02Edmund!
50:03Edmund!
50:04Edmund!
50:05Edmund!
50:06Edmund!
50:07Old Christ is here.
50:09I can't go home.
50:10I can't go home.
50:11You can't stay here.
50:14You'll catch a date.
50:37I'm sorry, Pa.
50:47I'm sorry, Ma.
50:48Hey, shush.
50:50You save your breath for better things.
50:54Your Pa's promised not to mention poaching.
51:01Now, let's see if we can get you to drink something.
51:04Edmund was safe, and my father could do as my mother had asked him.
51:11Just be the Pa you are, and Edmund will learn from watching you.
51:17If we thought that life could settle down again, we were mistaken.
51:23The business of the poaching was far from over.
51:34We are still there.
51:38Let's get to that place.
51:41We will celebrate today.
51:42Good night.
51:43Yeah.
51:43Good night.
51:44Good night.
51:46Well, you may have read that لsystem說 at Mar marpy.
51:49We'll be right back to it.
51:51We have finished an hour.
51:54So to get to that for some reason, you may have agreed upon you...
51:57I hope that was the fun stuff.
52:00Would you have gone home?
