00:04How is my pretty plumcake?
00:07Yeah, Ava.
00:09Jimmy, we can't.
00:12You have chosen the best available.
00:15Thank you for a compliment, Mr. Fox.
00:18Charles!
00:20Our parents were dead, beyond the reach of appeal or reason.
00:25This is father's way of revenge.
00:27It's simply his wish.
00:28Emily, you will let me have them.
00:33Often it seemed as if my sisters were my children.
00:37Ireland is prospering, but all our tax ends up in London.
00:40Why must he concern himself with matters he barely understands?
00:43I'm making a protest.
00:45Why can't he simply enjoy being rich?
00:50Don't say you're hurt. I'd die on the spot if you're hurt.
00:53Oh, Tom, marriage agrees with you.
00:56It's not at all alarming.
00:57One would think you had been married for years, not days.
01:00Someday I may have a lover, too.
01:20My husband, Jemmy, had petitioned the king to keep Irish taxis for Ireland.
01:26On his return from London, he received a hero's welcome.
01:31I failed.
01:32I did not even get to see the king.
01:34You are the only one who tried, my lord.
01:46Look, my lord.
01:51They struck a medal in your name.
01:54You may not be valued in London, but it's a different matter here.
02:15I had already displeased my sister Caroline by marrying Louisa in Ireland.
02:22Sarah was now of marriageable age, and I could not refuse Caroline's wish to launch her in London.
02:32I will miss you.
02:35I will miss you.
02:38I will miss you.
02:39I will miss this place.
02:41You'll be so occupied, you won't have time to think.
02:45I will not know anyone.
02:50I'm not good at dancing.
02:53I am not as pretty as Louisa.
02:55I will not know what to say.
02:57Nonsense.
03:01I worry I will disappoint you.
03:05You will not disappoint me.
03:08It's your first season.
03:10Of course you worry.
03:12Did you?
03:13I was used to London.
03:15And you will soon become so.
03:21Lady Sarah Lennox.
03:27My dear Sarah.
03:30Sister.
03:32Let me look at you.
03:37You are not quite as I remember you.
03:40I'm not.
03:41No.
03:42But every bit is pretty.
03:44Now, first of all, you must meet everybody, and then we will plan.
03:49You will find yourself busy, Lady Sarah.
03:53Mr Fox?
03:56You will enjoy London.
03:58Well, I do hope so.
04:00So much diversion while in one place.
04:03Yes.
04:04So much amusement.
04:07So many young men.
04:10I do not know if the young men will like me.
04:13Oh.
04:14I must introduce you to our sons.
04:16Your nephews.
04:17Boys, this is your aunt Sarah.
04:22I'm Stephen Fox.
04:24But you may call me Stee.
04:28Were you here last night?
04:31No.
04:31I thought you weren't.
04:33I would have seen you if you were.
04:36I'm Charles James.
04:38Ready to serve you in any way you wish.
04:40Come, Sarah.
04:42I'd like you to meet Lady Darlington.
04:44My sister.
04:46Perhaps I should have insisted she remained with me in Ireland.
04:49She was so innocent.
04:51Did I?
04:51We must have a ball.
04:53Do you dance?
04:54I should take dancing lessons.
04:56My feet are too big.
04:57Oh.
04:59Well, Cattini teaches dancing.
05:01Three guineas a month.
05:02Untolerably dear.
05:03But then he is the best.
05:04Can you sing?
05:05Or can you ride?
05:07I can act.
05:08Oh, excellent.
05:09Lady Susan.
05:12My niece.
05:13Lady Susan Fox Strangways.
05:15Lady Sarah Lennox.
05:17Lady Sarah has a taste for theatricals.
05:20Oh.
05:20You must take a part in our play.
05:22The Bow Stratagem.
05:24I'm sure you know it.
05:25We have the most delightful lady there.
05:28Well, she's pretty enough, but she has no air.
05:33She'll do well.
05:35She has charm.
05:40I was a considering in what manner I should make love to you.
05:45Love to me?
05:48Friend.
05:49Yes, child.
05:50Child.
05:51Manners.
05:52If you were to keep a little more distance, friend, it would become you much better.
05:57Distance?
05:58Good night, sauce box.
06:01I hope so.
06:03You ain't affronted.
06:06Death, child.
06:08You have a delicate pair of eyes.
06:11Oh, my goodness.
06:15Oh, my goodness.
06:20Mr. O'Brien is very handsome.
06:24I love him.
06:27You love an actor?
06:29I cannot help it.
06:31I adore him.
06:33Then what would people say?
06:35Sarah, my dear, your brother wishes to congratulate you.
06:39Your Grace.
06:42Surprising performance.
06:44Congratulations.
06:45I hope it entertained you, brother.
06:48A promising start.
06:50You'll improve with practice.
06:52My wife, Mary.
06:54Your Grace.
06:55Did you enjoy being seduced?
06:58In the play?
06:59I trust it only happened in the play.
07:02Oh, of course.
07:04Though he's handsome enough to tempt a nun.
07:09Oh, Lady Sarah.
07:11You are Lady Sarah, the sister from Ireland?
07:15Yes.
07:16Horace Walpole.
07:24Mr. Walpole is the very celebrated man of letters.
07:29And this, Lady Sarah, is George Selwyn.
07:37Did you see the execution today, George?
07:39I missed it.
07:40You watch executions?
07:42Everyone has a hobby.
07:43I suppose they do.
07:44Mr. Selwyn is quite taken by death.
07:46I noticed you sleeping in the commons again today.
07:51Mind you, I woke to vote.
07:53If one spends one's nights in reverie, one must sleep sometime.
08:02The Martianess of Aberdeen and Lady Isabel Gordon.
08:08Good fortune.
08:09Lady Sarah Clifford and Miss Susan Beer.
08:13Good fortune.
08:15Lady Jane Cottrell-Dormer and Miss Kementia Cottrell-Dormer.
08:21You there, with the hair.
08:28Lady Sarah Lennox, Majesty.
08:30Lady Sarah, you...
08:38We knew you before.
08:44You were the child who sang in the jar.
08:49You sang what song?
08:52I cannot remember.
08:53Oh!
08:55Dear, what was it?
08:57What?
08:58Can you sing it now?
09:02Will your majesty excuse me?
09:06I believe I have forgotten the words.
09:10By God, you made us laugh.
09:20I often make people laugh.
09:23I do it without even trying.
09:25Oh!
09:30The Prince of Wales would like to talk to you.
09:33Will you indulge the young pup?
09:35I don't promise entertainment.
09:36He never has much to say.
09:51Her Grace, the Duchess of Northumberland, and Lady Elizabeth Percy.
09:57Good fortune.
09:57Lady McCollum.
09:59Lady McCollum.
10:00You have lived with Lady Craddell in Ireland.
10:02Thank you for fortune.
10:03Lady McCollum.
10:04Lady McCollum.
10:04Was it good or was it dull?
10:08It was a pleasure.
10:11Do you have company over there?
10:15Frequently.
10:20and what do you do when there's none when we are alone we read aloud sometimes
10:32my sister killed her often has trouble with her eyes you don't find it tiresome to read aloud
10:40no I would do anything for her her kindness to me is such that I could never describe it
10:46you are obliged to her as I am obliged to Lord Bute he's my only friend
10:58he guides my path I see
11:04I need an advisor

11:39indeed your royal highness
11:45listen to this the royal mooncarp has found a planet to adore Lady S came from Ireland and fractured his
11:54intractable heart she's not Irish she was born here what does he feel for her what have you seen are
12:00you serious Charles I mean would you have her marry him of course he would we all would for her
12:07to marry the future king would be of advantage to all of us not least for her to marry the
12:11future king would be of advantage to all of us
12:11to you
12:12me it might help restore the family's honor honor honor what are you saying
12:17only that you are accused of profiting by the war your grace
12:22everyone profited by the war including you the coal royalties filled your coffers that is legitimate that's the bounty of
12:30the king and I am accused you have questions to answer there's talk of embezzlement bribery fraud it's well known
12:38I defy anyone to prove that I have in any way proof who needs proof look how your fortune has
12:44expanded you buy houses and lands you pay his gambling debts I'm renowned for my gambling debts
12:51shh
12:53my life my fortune my affair sums have passed through your hands for which there are no accounts can you
13:01refute that I did what everyone does so you cannot account for the amounts how dare you question my conduct
13:07I have exhausted myself in the service of the king
13:13I have seen lesser men flourish in ease and plenty not one or two but many my abilities my goodwill
13:21my whole self has been devoted to my friends and country
13:26why should my family not benefit let those who judge me look to themselves I will not be judged
13:34my brother the Duke of Richmond was right
13:36Mr Fox's political fortunes were in decline
13:40he had amassed great wealth but he had one ambition left
13:45he hoped for an earldom and a royal alliance would help him secure one
13:56you like really yes your highness
13:59it uplifts the soul
14:01yes your highness
14:04I know you feel it
14:09I do
14:11mm-hmm
14:13I'd be happy to listen for hours
14:15that is what we do your highness
14:17we listen for hours
14:19yes
14:20yes
14:31yes
14:32yes
14:40yes
14:41I'll date you guys
14:45I'd like you guys
14:49yours are fine. Thank you, Your Highness. Do others tell you your eyes are nice?
14:59Gentlemen sometimes pay compliments. Do they? Who? I cannot remember. I suppose
15:15there are dozens in love with you. I don't think there's even one. Some men are good at
15:21compliments. It doesn't mean to say they feel more. I'm sure you are right. Well, one who is
15:29silent might boil with passion within. If Your Highness will allow me, there are others you
15:40should speak with. Will you excuse me, Lady Sarah? Of course.
15:59Oh, my dear Sarah, you look beautiful. Oh, the sweetest rose and the depth of winter.
16:06Rather say a briar. Have you thorns, Lady Sarah? Only in my tongue. And will His Royal Highness
16:14be there tonight? I have not inquired. Have you read of her conquest? Mm-hmm. It seems that
16:20everyone has. More's the pity. Lord Sal, don't hide your line. I'm not a beacon. Don't bristle
16:28at me. You make me believe I strike home. May we talk of another subject? Come, sister,
16:33we must go. Young ladies will have their secrets. If they do, they are cleverer than me. It seems
16:41that everyone knows everything about my life more than I do myself. Never mind, Lady Sarah.
16:46Sarah, we who live on gossip love those who provide it. Isn't that what I am? An entertaining
16:53story? Must I try to keep you amused? You need do nothing more than enjoy the ball. I shall.
17:01Good night. Sarah is showing some promise, don't you think? If I'd launched Louise, I would
17:12have chosen a better husband than Mr. Connolly. I mean, wealth isn't everything. We must ensure
17:17the best possible match for Sarah. Are we right to hope that the Prince... We shouldn't move
17:24too fast. We must be circumspect. Marriage to a future king is not simply a matter of falling in
17:31love. We should send her away for a time. You know what absence does to the heart. My brother
17:39and the Duchess are going to the country soon. Yes. We'll send her to the country.
17:55The plan to enrapture the king still further received something of a setback when Sarah fell
18:02from her horse and injured her leg.
18:15But the clever Mr. Fox knew well enough how to turn such a mishap to account.
18:37Excellent, Mr. Fox. I wish I had a heart for the music. But all I can think on is Lady
18:43Sarah's
18:44accident. Accident? You haven't heard that she went to the country and fell from her horse.
18:51A fall? How dreadful. Is she seriously hurt? The pain was severe. But her courage, Your Highness,
19:00I'm told it was admirable. For goodness sake, how is she? Her ankle is broken. No small thing
19:06for a young lady. Thank God she lives. When they carried her home, the pain was extreme.
19:12I feel for her intensely. May I inform her of your concern? I should be deeply indebted.
19:29There is no pain. It was not broken. Such a relief. A limp would have quite spoiled your chances.
19:45Are you pleased? She can go dancing again. Not immediately, I'm afraid.
19:49Well, the doctors assure me. We won't be dancing. Your Grace.
19:55His Majesty is dead. Dead? The King? I expect he was as surprised as you. It appears he had
20:01breakfast as usual and breakfast did well. He retired, as he usually does. While sitting
20:05engaged in a natural function, he suffered a seizure and died. He had an affection for you.
20:13He thought of me as a plaything. For a king, he had no conversation. A king needs merely
20:18to play the king, my dear sister. And we his loyal subjects? It is not the person,
20:23it is the office. I'm surprised you don't see it. Bespeak your mourning.
20:32You'd change your ideas if you were queen. The thought of being queen makes me quite sick.
20:39Sarah, I am sure it will be. And you must be ready. When he proposes.
20:44He will not. I am certain of it. That's excellent. You must seem to be surprised.
20:50I will not have to seem. I will be quite astonished. Try muttering a little. As if quite overcome.
20:57Muttering? So astonished. So surprised. Can't understand. What is your meaning?
21:04I do not understand why you persuade me to this. You'll thank us yet.
21:09A chance such as this? How can you mess up? Sister, you do not think he will propose?
21:19Well, they say he admires your rural simplicity.
21:28Rural simplicity?
21:31Sarah's admirer was now the king. Naturally, we were all captivated by the thought that our sister might one day
21:38be queen.
21:39How could we discourage so advantageous a match?
21:51I cannot make hay. It doesn't matter in the least. The look is the thing.
21:58We will not come this way today.
21:59Then you can be here tomorrow. Pull up your sleeves. Show your arms.
22:04Mayhap she ought to show more neck.
22:10This is an absurdity.
22:19Someone's approaching. It may be him.
22:21Someone's approaching. It may be him.
22:21They may be him.
22:47The accession of King George III reunited the family at last.
22:52As we assembled in London with the rest of the nobility.
23:04Mr Thomas Connolly and Lady Louisa Connolly.
23:08I would not have Louisa know it for the world, but I was quite taken aback when I met her
23:13little spouse.
23:15Things he says. If I were Louisa, I would be vastly embarrassed.
23:19Oh, she adores him.
23:21Was my bowel right?
23:24Perfect, my little fleek.
23:26I practiced the correct angle between the trunk and the thigh.
23:30He falls into a terror if her little finger aches. He is so impulsive, I worry.
23:35Always married to Louisa.
23:37You need to have no fears.
23:38And Lady Elizabeth Foster.
23:44The Duke and Duchess of Richmond.
23:55Signor and Signora de la Sevilla.
24:01Do not preach the word to Caroline, but I believe Steve is most obnoxious.
24:06The poor boy is often ill. I think it makes him peevish.
24:10Peevish.
24:11He drinks and he gambles.
24:13I believe he even has debts.
24:20I like his brother though. He has wit.
24:22Mr. George and Lady Cable.
24:25There's a word for this, Louisa. What is it?
24:29Lord and Lady Barclay.
24:31Resplendent.
24:33Oh, that's the one.
24:35Mr. Charles Randolph.
24:36What a wonderfully resplendent occasion this is, hmm?
24:41Sir Roger, need you to get to...
24:43Mr Hugh Fitzroy.
24:46Henry is not well.
24:48His political misfortunes have weakened him.
24:51He grows listless.
24:53Not at all himself.
24:56Do these hopes of Sarah and Archie?
24:59Unfortunately they do, but...
25:01How will he be if they fail?
25:02Louisa, do you believe one should marry without love?
25:09I believe it is better to be in love.
25:12You are right.
25:15But one does not always have such good fortune.
25:20What should one do when one is without love?
25:22I believe I would be guided by the family.
25:34Will we ever get out of this room?
25:37Will we ever get out of this room?
25:39Will we ever get out of this room?
25:48Have seven!
25:48Have seven eyes, dear bunny?
25:50Out of my heart.
25:50Imed out.
25:51I try the way on your own.
25:52One of my labyrinth and an early- Achilles and a wonder.
25:57He has told me...
25:58He says he would like an English Queen.
26:01I am surprised.
26:03I'm astonished.
26:04Do I understand?
26:06What is your meaning?
26:08He said you were the fittest for the part.
26:16Why tell you and not me?
26:18He thinks I can influence you.
26:20You can.
26:21You do.
26:23Then do as I say.
26:25Say yes.
26:26Do not leave me alone.
26:27I'm sorry.
26:29I obey the royal command.
26:30Come on.
26:35Lady Sarah, we trust we find you well?
26:38Yes, Your Majesty.
27:01Has Lady Susan told you what I said?
27:04She has, Your Majesty.
27:07We want you to ever remember that you hold the most passionate attachment of our heart.
27:10Your Majesty, I am surprised.
27:13You should not be.
27:15Has not our preference for your company been marked?
27:20I admit.
27:21Has not our happiness been evident when we see you?
27:24I do not like to assume it myself, but my friend assures me.
27:28I was ignorant of passion before I met you.
27:32Since then, I have known both misery and joy.
27:36Joy when I'm with you.
27:39And grief when you part.
27:41Your Majesty.
27:42Even though I am king and have responsibilities,
27:47I still have a heart.
27:51That heart was unlocked by you.
27:54I do not know what to say.
27:56Believe that we tell you the truth, Lady Sarah.
28:00And for God's sake,
28:03never forget.
28:20Did he come to the point?
28:23It seems he will.
28:30At a meeting of the Privy Council, listen.
28:33At a meeting of the Privy Council, the announcement will be made.
28:37What announcement?
28:38The king is to marry with Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strolitz.
28:42What?
28:44No, he can't.
28:47Who is this Charlotte of Mecklenburg?
28:49She's German, 17, suitable and squat.
28:59Every time he looks at her face,
29:02he'll think of yours and bitterly repent.
29:05I do not wish him to repent.
29:07He may be king, but he must look to his conscience.
29:10His behaviour was appalling.
29:12His behaviour?
29:15Mine?
29:16I do not love him.
29:18I never will.
29:22You must think me such a fool.
29:25Oh, God.
29:27Sarah.
29:29We were foolish to have hoped.
29:31Presumption had blinded us.
29:35Sarah herself felt tainted and humiliated.
29:39She had become an embarrassment.
29:45We were all mightily relieved when she married Mr. Charles Bunbury,
29:50even though he was a man of no great distinction or fortune.
29:57Emily would have come if she could.
29:59She sends you her best love.
30:03Don't give in to Merlin, please, sis.
30:06My sisters are all happy in marriage.
30:10I hope I will be also.
30:12I think him suited, sister.
30:13Well, he has neither eyes nor ears for anyone but her.
30:19£2,000 a year.
30:20A house in the country and a house in town.
30:23They haven't an income for town.
30:27She'll be bored out of her mind without the diversions of London.
30:32Why should she choose Bunbury?
30:34He is a scholar and a poet.
30:37I hope I'm wrong, but he looks like a cockscore.
30:41Not at all.
30:42Caroline.
30:44My dear Sarah,
30:46God send you all happiness.
30:59Do you choose to walk?
31:01My dog of a horse is lame.
31:06Did you have good sport?
31:08Honorable.
31:11Do you wish to know how I spent my day?
31:14What did you do?
31:15I talked to my parrot.
31:18I sewed a handkerchief.
31:20I wrote to my sisters.
31:23And I looked out for you.
31:25Is that not a day well spent?
31:27Glad it amused you.
31:31I suppose it must.
31:34Everyone else seems sure it should.
31:40Do you wish me to invite some friends to visit?
31:42Whatever you wish.
31:43I'm going to London.
31:46Don't you want me to come with you?
31:48Do you want to?
31:50I'm surprised you can ask.
31:52You must come, if you please.
31:59Do I follow you about too much?
32:01No.
32:03Some men find it tiresome.
32:05I'd not blame you if it made you angry.
32:08Is Mr. Connolly coming to London with your sister?
32:13Yes.
32:14They arrive from Ireland next week.
32:16Arrange to meet them.
32:19Certainly.
32:20I need his advice on a horse.
32:27A horse.
32:33Now, only my youngest sister, Cecilia, remained in my care in Ireland.
32:39I still had my own children to cheer me.
32:42Apart from William and my beloved George, my eldest, who were being educated in England.
32:53Would you like George to get married?
32:55Cecilia, I would much rather he were here.
33:01Edward, let Sophia have a turn.
33:04Come here.
33:27Where are you going?
33:28I have an engagement.
33:31We see little of each other.
33:33Is this a complaint, my lady?
33:36Of course not.
33:39I'm perfectly happy and extremely lucky.
33:56George became ill with a consumptive fever while he was staying with my brother in London.
34:02Sarah, ever caring of others, went there to nurse him.
34:07And such is their beneficence to those below them,
34:10that there is not a neighbour, a friend or a servant
34:13who does not bless the day when Mr. Jones was married.
34:17To his Sophia.
34:21Happy endings.
34:25My favourite kind.
34:30What did the doctor say, George?
34:32I must take bark.
34:34A quantity of bark.
34:37You should write to Mother.
34:40She will love to hear from her favourite.
34:42Rather, she has no favourites.
35:06Should I go home?
35:09Certainly you should.
35:10As the new heir, your duties require it.
35:18How shall I tell Mother?
35:20I will go with you.
35:24And Mr. Bunbury?
35:29The Duke and Duchess of Leinster.
35:34How delighted our new title was to be short-lived.
35:38I think Carden looks prettiest in the morning.
35:40Perhaps a few more trees.
35:43You have a good eye for landscape.
35:45Ash and Elm.
35:46I'll have them planted.
35:49Good showy trees.
35:50Fill up a few holes.
35:52Or a lake.
35:52I can have the river stop to make a pretty sort of lake.
35:55Or to look mighty pleasing, Your Grace.
35:59Forgive me, Tom.
36:00I'm not yet accustomed to the title.
36:02First Duke and Duchess of Leinster.
36:04You should be damned proud.
36:06I am.
36:06You might say it is the only favour the King has done me.
36:14Is that Sarah?
36:28Mothers expect to bear the loss of a baby.
36:31Why did God have to take the child that was grown?
36:50Thank you, Steve.
36:55What do we have?
36:59You make the choice.
37:03Mr. Stern.
37:06Mr. Smollett.
37:09Mr. Lussaud.
37:15Mr. Lussaud.
37:21After George died,
37:22I resolved that I would no longer lose any of my children to England.
37:27I would keep them with me.
37:28Come, children.
37:29I would keep them safe.
37:31Do not disobey.
37:33Do not disobey.
37:45Will you return to Barton soon, Sarah?
37:50Mr. Banbury does not urge me to return.
37:54You show such consideration.
37:58But he must plan for you and you for him.
38:05Do you not think our sister needs me?
38:08She has me.
38:10Yes, I know, Cecilia.
38:11And indeed, you are a treasure.
38:14She would want you to do what's right.
38:24Good night.
38:44I'm going to ask Monsieur Rousseau to teach the children.
38:52Jemmy has bought a house by the sea.
38:55It will be a school.
38:57Do you think he'll come to Ireland?
39:00Where should he come?
39:02He's had to flee from Paris.
39:07He has such interesting thoughts on education.
39:11It appears he does not favour children studying books.
39:17No books, I'd die.
39:20Where is he now?
39:21Oh.
39:22Mendel.
39:25You'll set everyone talking.
39:28I'm writing to him now.
39:38I wish I knew what to do about her.
39:41There's no harm in William.
39:44No harm and no sense.
39:49He has never been bookish.
39:52His schooling was a waste.
39:56Maybe Europe will improve him.
40:07I never grow accustomed to leaving home.
40:19What does he look like?
40:23This Rousseau.
40:25Jimmy, how should I know?
40:27What do people say?
40:30Nobody calls him handsome.
40:34I'm not convinced he's a good idea.
40:36It's too late to change.
40:39The letter is sent.
40:43Jimmy.
40:47I know you will like him.
40:51Why do you worry?
41:16Why do you worry?
41:18Mr. Fox?
41:19I live an easy life.
41:22You have left politics behind.
41:24Yes.
41:26You have done well.
41:27When I thought of my own advancement, I did well.
41:31When I did what I believed in, I made mistakes.
41:37The summit eluded me.
41:42My sister is not sorry.
41:45She sees more of you.
41:48I made money, Sal, which will make my family secure.
41:54It is the sovereignty of Parliament that I uphold.
41:58Charles James will fill the place that I aspire to.
42:05People vilify you.
42:06Does that not anger you?
42:10One must learn to ignore.
42:13In the meantime, I am content.
42:19Miss Rumi, but I love her heartily.
42:23For she is wise if I may judge of her.
42:27And she is fair if mine eyes be true.
42:32And she is true as she has proved herself.
42:37And therefore...
42:38He's mine.
42:39I want his heart.
42:40Shh.
42:41...wise, fair and true,
42:43shall she be placed in my constant soul.
42:58Your niece Susan has ruined herself.
43:01How?
43:01By marrying that actor.
43:03When?
43:04Yesterday, at Covent Garden.
43:06The coffee houses are full of it and the papers are short to follow.
43:10Do you think Sarah knew?
43:11I have no idea.
43:13I feared her influence on Sarah, but I never dreamed she would destroy herself.
43:20What will you do, Henry?
43:21Do?
43:24What...
43:24Could you find this O'Brien, some employee somewhere?
43:29Where?
43:31Where?
43:31But they can't stay here, Henry.
43:33The scandal will dog them.
43:35Maybe we could send them to Ireland.
43:37Well, I doubt Leinster will receive them.
43:40He declares that what is unacceptable in London is equally a miss in Dublin.
43:45Well, where then?
43:47Henry!
43:49Sarah's name will be dragged through the papers again.
43:52You must send them abroad.
43:55I will see what I can do.
44:02We should send Sarah away too.
44:10I was asked yesterday if I was inclined to elope with an actor.
44:14Or if I still pined after the king.
44:16Then what did you say?
44:18I said nothing.
44:20Well, it doesn't matter what you say.
44:22They'll make it up anyway.
44:26There's Susan.
44:28Now, just a quick goodbye.
44:30Don't take too long.
44:31I'll see you by the steps.
44:38I forbid you to be sad.
44:40I do not believe you will miss me in the least.
44:42One can still write letters, even to America.
44:44You'll tell me everything.
44:45Every little detail.
44:47What we grow, what animals we rear.
44:50Animals?
44:51On the farm Mr Fox has given us.
44:53We will make our fortune.
44:56I'm to go to Paris with my brother.
44:58Paris will lift your spirits.
45:00I'm pursued and talked about everywhere here.
45:03Because I'm your friend, it does not mean that I'm to blame.
45:05It's all just jealousy of your pretty face.
45:08If the king had never noticed me, none of this would have happened.
45:11You have the best heart of anyone I know.
45:14I knew what everyone else thought as you do.
45:18Promise you won't forget me.
45:20How could I?
45:27Freed from the restraints of London society, my sister seemed determined to flaunt the failure of her marriage.
45:46You wager like a French woman, sir.
45:49We are in France.
45:50So tonight, we choose to be with the French.
45:55You do not gamble in England?
45:57We do.
45:59But many think it of vice.
46:01For a woman to gamble, it is frowned upon.
46:11You are faint-hearted, your grace.
46:13You do not trust your luck.
46:17It seems you trust yours.
46:19It's not the excitement lie in the risk.
46:22It's you.
46:24It's you.
46:25It's finished?
46:27Yes.
46:32A pity.
46:33It was a trifle.
46:34It was a sizeable sign.
46:36I do not count the cost.
46:38Bravo!
46:39There is no dishonor in losing.
46:41It is proof that one has risked all.
47:03My nephew would be proud of me.
47:05Your nephew?
47:06My sister Caroline's son.
47:09Charles James Fox.
47:11Ah, the parliamentarian.
47:13The gambler.
47:14He supports the power of parliament over that of your king.
47:18This I admire.
47:20I am a passionate supporter of the English constitution.
47:23All my life, I have loved your country.
47:27You have been there?
47:28It is my intention.
47:29Take care.
47:30You may find yourself disappointed.
47:32What would happen?
47:34I find most things improve on acquaintance.
47:38I find the opposite.
47:42Your husband has retired for the night.
47:45He is readily bored.
47:49You will permit me to visit you when I come to England.
47:53You may visit my brother.
47:56I would not expect of him what I hope for from you.
48:02I wager you.
48:03I wager you.
48:04I shall not disappoint.
48:05I will not disappoint.
48:20I was waiting for you.
48:23I will not wait for you.
