Gone a'Hunting: While Matty and Lydia accompany their employers to a weekend shoot at the Earl's Devon estate, Hannah accompanies Isabel to a luncheon, where Isabel shamelessly flirts with Captain Mason. Young Tom St. John is troubled by being forced to take part in the shoot and the stress leads him to accidentally shoot his father. Ned meets a woman in a pub and takes her home but doesn't go to bed with her when his feelings for Matty surface.

01:01There's no place like home.
01:40I think we can both agree that Hugh is no stranger to poor form.
01:43Really, Constance, sometimes your Yankee cynicism is a little wearing.
01:51Let's not start the party up in the coral.
01:54Our guests will be arriving soon.
01:56Shall we go?
02:17You silly man.
02:20Do you suppose any of the other house guests have worn that train?
02:22See that woman there?
02:24She's the Duke of Wilton's old nanny.
02:26That must be his boy.
02:27He looks like he'll be a good playmate for you, Tom.
02:30And be careful with that.
02:32If there are any breakages, I shall be holding you responsible.
02:39Tom, try not to make a show of yourself, eh?
02:58Thank you, Polly.
02:59They're perfect.
03:00You may go.
03:04It's beautiful, Miss Isabel.
03:08I don't know what to say.
03:11Aunt!
03:13Are you feeling any better?
03:15I'm sorry, my dear.
03:15I'm retiring to bed.
03:18I'm afraid it means I'm unlikely to accompany you to the Wakely's lunch party tomorrow.
03:23Of course.
03:25You go and lie down and I'll get Polly to bring you some tea.
03:31It really is too bad.
03:34A lunch invitation, no chaperone, and it's nearly the end of the season.
03:40Tell me, what do you think of Captain Mason?
03:43Hmm.
03:43Handsome.
03:44You think so?
03:46Charming.
03:47Yes.
03:48And some say he's been seen with Mrs St. John in circumstances that aren't perfectly proper.
03:54Hannah, I would have thought servants gossip beneath you.
03:59What kind of circumstances?
04:03In what way not proper?
04:05I've brought young Flory Smith, Miss.
04:09Good.
04:10Send her in, would you?
04:16How very timely.
04:18Nanny Randall?
04:20This is Flory Smith, your new nursery maid.
04:24Nursery maid?
04:25We don't need a new nursery maid, do we, Nanny?
04:28Oh, Bertie, but I think you do.
04:31Sometimes Nanny is so preoccupied with you and the baby that conversation becomes almost impossible.
04:37Come in, Flory.
04:39This is Nanny Randall.
04:40Now, you must do absolutely everything she tells you.
04:43Understood?
04:45Morning, Mum.
04:50Can't catch me!
04:53And what about this trunk?
04:55No, that's got all Tom's things in it.
04:58Oh, I wish we could get the afternoon off, Matty.
05:01Meet my Mum and Dad.
05:03Oh, and there's so many things I could show you.
05:06Afternoon off?
05:07You're joking.
05:08I should have asked the footman to take it straight into his room.
05:11Oh, well.
05:12We could carry it together.
05:15Lydia!
05:18There's a grand pond on the other side of the farm.
05:21Really quiet.
05:22Where you can have a swim and no-one will see you.
05:25And there's the apple orchards.
05:27Uh-huh.
05:27And a wood where you get more conkers than anywhere else in the country.
05:30Oh!
05:32Lydia!
05:33What on earth are you doing?
05:35Oh, sorry.
05:36We-we-we was just carrying it and-
05:37Well, be quick about it.
05:39Nanny Barlow's coming up the stairs.
05:41Oh!
05:43Nanny Barlow, welcome to Causton Hall once again.
05:47Nanny Collins?
05:51Are those children wearing their outdoor shoes?
05:55In the day, nursery, while wearing outdoor shoes?
06:00Do come this way, Nanny Barlow.
06:03I've got them to light a fire in your room.
06:13Nanny Wickham?
06:15Nanny Weston?
06:17It's good to get out of London, isn't it?
06:22I haven't seen him in years, let alone the past few weeks.
06:26Well, if you do see him...
06:28I'll run him round to Bowes Street meself.
06:30He nicked my purse when he left.
06:32You're not the only ones who want to get their hands on Ned.
06:35Don't worry.
06:36We'll find him eventually.
06:53Nanny!
06:55Watch it, girl!
06:57You finished, Dustin?
06:59Get downstairs and start boiling water.
07:00I want the hearth tiles in the night nursery scrubbed.
07:03Yes, Mrs Klosky.
07:08All the cats away, eh?
07:09That particular mouse needs no encouragement to play, least of all from you.
07:13Oh, come on, Mum.
07:14It's been a few times. We can just... relax.
07:17Relax?
07:18I've just had the police round again.
07:22What did you say?
07:23Exactly what I said last time.
07:24But this can't go on forever.
07:26I've got the police on the back doorstep,
07:28and that goes away in the country knowing everything about you.
07:31She don't know everything.
07:32You'd have to go run into the law if she's a mind.
07:34She won't.
07:35I can't believe you were in a town, Ned.
07:37Why do you keep going on about her?
07:40She's not here.
07:40She's hundreds of miles away in some swank country house
07:44worrying about whether the kids have got clean 80s.
07:47She's not thinking about you.
07:49Or me.
07:50Or anything got to do with what's going on here.
07:53She's not even...
07:56Oh, forget it.
08:01I notice that baby Ivo knaws in his fists when he's hungry, Nanny Collins.
08:08I find tying the hands to the sides of the chair soon stops that sort of thing.
08:13He's kicking me!
08:16Tom, feet still.
08:17It's not me, it's him.
08:19No, it's not.
08:20Lord Louis does not kick, and tattletales generally discover that God finds ways to punish them.
08:27Tattletale tit.
08:28Nanny!
08:29Lord Louis, I think it would be better if you kept your feet and your teas into yourself.
08:34Nanny Wickham.
08:35I thank you to keep your nose out, young lady.
08:37I don't think Nanny Wickham meant anything by it.
08:40Now, shall we all have a tea cake?
08:43Lord Louis is not permitted tea cakes.
08:46Not in the nursery, at any rate.
08:48Only in the drawing room at the invitation of Lady Wilton.
08:52Come along, Louis.
08:54Time for your bath.
08:58Thank you for a delightful tea, Nanny Collins.
09:03You see, the boy bears no grudge.
09:08Nobility will out, I always say.
09:18The matter is decided.
09:20Help is needed in the nursery, and I have provided it.
09:24Now, which dress do you think?
09:26Ah, this one.
09:28It has the prettiest neckline.
09:30Yes, but Aunt Effie ordered it made with me without knowing anything about my size.
09:34It never really fitted.
09:37You'd look glorious in it.
09:39It's beautiful.
09:41It goes absolutely with your eyes.
09:44It's your day off tomorrow, isn't it?
09:46Were you planning anything?
09:48I just to visit a friend.
09:49Another Nanny?
09:50No, no, no, just someone in Limehouse.
09:52Someone?
09:54Don't tell me you have an admirer.
09:56No, nothing like that, just a friend.
10:00This one, I think.
10:01It makes my waist look smaller.
10:03And this friend?
10:05You'd made definite arrangements?
10:07Oh, I've sent a note saying I'm coming, if I can get the day off.
10:10Why?
10:12No reason.
10:14Well, of course, they didn't read, so the whole enterprise was a waste of time.
10:19Virginia quail red grass don't belong in Norfolk, do they?
10:23Kings are no better.
10:25Yeah?
10:27Annabelle, I'm planning a game of croquet for Weatherholt.
10:31Oh, dear.
10:32I'm not sure it isn't a little late for croquet.
10:36Rather too windy at this time of year, perhaps.
10:40But certainly, if you are organising it, I shall endeavour to play.
10:44Mrs St. John, shall I put you down?
10:46Game birds are like foreigners.
10:49Best on their own turf.
10:54I should be delighted.
10:56Lady Wilton has agreed, and Mrs. Russbridge, and Mrs. Forshaw.
11:01Are you expecting any late arrivals?
11:04I believe Hugh is expected at some point, and one other.
11:08Ground chap, young Hugh. Always livens up a gathering.
11:10Yes, I'm always saying that if Louis turns out to be half the young man Hugh has become, I shall
11:16be delighted.
11:17Indeed.
11:20And your son, Mrs. St. John, Tom, a fine-looking little chap.
11:24How old is he?
11:25He's almost eight.
11:26How's his age?
11:28Louis bagged some quite impressive numbers last season.
11:31Quite a keen little shot.
11:32Is he coming tomorrow, your boy?
11:33Most definitely.
11:34He's looking forward to it immensely.
11:36It'll be his first shoot.
11:37Good heavens.
11:39First shoot?
11:39And nearly eight.
11:41Ah!
11:47And now I think we should leave the men to their boring talk of guns and races of birds.
11:53Shall we?
11:58Oh, by all means, Father, and tell them the ladies are retiring now.
12:02A late arrival.
12:06Ladies?
12:06Yes, yes.
12:15I fancy a small wager on tomorrow's outcome.
12:18George here to bag at least a hundred more than anyone else.
12:22Pay no attention, St. John.
12:24He knows perfectly well that there'll be some far finer shots amongst us tomorrow.
12:27I don't know.
12:28Good evening, Father.
12:29Hugh.
12:30Uncle.
12:32Sorry I'm late.
12:34Bit of business in town.
12:35I can see that.
12:36A business involved another man's fist.
12:38Did it?
12:39Ah, yes.
12:40But you should see the other chap.
12:42A misunderstanding over a member of the fairer sex.
12:45Isn't that right, Hugh?
12:46You could say that.
12:47Still, as long as...
12:48What is it they say to the victor, the spoils?
12:50As long as he were the victor, Hugh.
12:52Oh, absolutely, Uncle Percy.
12:54Absolutely.
12:57Can't wait till Sunday.
12:59See my mum in tight.
13:01Nanny Weston.
13:03Don't speak with your mouth fuller.
13:04I shall have to tell Lord Wilton.
13:07I'm telling you.
13:08One more word out of that stuck-up old pre-phrase.
13:12Did you see Anna before we left London?
13:15Why?
13:17Well, I haven't seen her for ages.
13:19Wondered if she got herself a young man.
13:22Of course she hasn't.
13:23There's no need to sound so cross about it.
13:25There's nothing wrong with being in love.
13:28They're as if you're a nanny.
13:30You could lose your position.
13:31I didn't expect that to stop many people.
13:33Well, we'll fall then, then.
13:36Nanny Wickham.
13:37How absolutely right of you to be so totally correct.
13:41Here.
13:41Stick one of these in your mouth.
13:43Might sweeten you up a bit.
13:46You think I'm a therapist?
13:47No, not a therapist.
13:49Just sometimes a little bit too set on the straight and narrow.
13:52Steve?
13:52Yes, Miss, you.
13:54Here, have two strawberries.
13:56Might make all the difference.
13:58Have three.
14:39I'm looking for this
14:39Where are you going?
14:40Out.
14:44Can you take that more and just dance?
14:47Mm.
14:47Oh, God.
14:49Good morning, Dr. Rowe.
15:03Constance.
15:04You?
15:05You're not joining us today?
15:07No, I don't shoot.
15:08I thought all American women could out-shoot any Englishman.
15:11All that practice with the Redskins.
15:15Right, keep us sending the Peters up onto the first drive so we can get started.
15:19Ah, there you are!
15:21Really, Tom, is it too much to ask that you were eye properly pressed?
15:24Hat boy hat!
15:26I left it upstairs. Shall I go fetch it?
15:29No time.
15:30Pretty careless with hats altogether, eh, Sinjin?
15:33Not to worry.
15:34Right, forward march!
15:49Go on!
15:52Care there, young Tom?
15:54The Peters coming through the wood.
15:56Best sound in the world.
15:58Remember, Tom, listen to your loader.
16:01You can hop and see the birds before you can.
16:11Care there, Tom!
16:13Get out!
16:14She's so sick!
16:16Get out!
16:19She's dead!
16:22I have plenty of speed!
16:23Get out of here!
16:37I can't get out!
16:51Oh, Miss Isabel, you know what they say about fine feathers.
16:54They also say clothes make of the man.
16:57Or in this case, woman.
16:59Well, it takes more than a tea gown to make someone a lady.
17:02Not if they're sharp and clever like you, Hannah.
17:05Some people are just naturally ladies.
17:08There.
17:10Some work with the curling irons, some good jewellery,
17:13and you could take tea at the Ritz without question.
17:16Just as well I could never afford tea at the Ritz, then.
17:19Ah, but a free lunch.
17:23Miss Hannah Randall... No.
17:26Miss Honoria Randall of the County Wicklow-Randalls,
17:30intimate friend of Miss Isabel Hutchinson,
17:33attended a luncheon given recently at 46 Grosvenor Square.
17:38No.
17:39Oh, why not? It'd be such fun!
17:41Miss Isabel!
17:43And it would help me enormously.
17:45You know how nervous I am about going.
17:48I couldn't.
17:49But you have to.
17:50You can't let me down now.
17:54I'm expected at Limehouse.
17:56Is that the only obstacle?
17:59You can go and see your friend another day.
18:08Oh, Mrs. B, this come for you.
18:13It's from the town hall.
18:15We've all got one.
18:23No more baby things on the line, then.
18:27It's gone, has it?
18:29What about the girl?
18:31Gone away, yes.
18:32She got a job where they let her take the baby.
18:35Hard to come by, understanding employers.
18:38She was lucky.
18:40She got the job up Barclay Square.
18:43It's only my washing now.
18:46I've got to go.
18:48Hey, what about your letter?
18:51It's about the drains.
18:54It's all yourself.
18:56I particularly feel this crustacean.
18:58And this is Mr. Sidney Chambers,
19:00a very good friend of the family.
19:03Mr. Chambers is sure to want to ask you
19:04where you've been hiding on see for Miss Randall.
19:08And this gentleman, I believe you have met already.
19:11Miss Hutchinson, looking delightful as hell.
19:14Captain Mason,
19:16allow me to introduce you
19:17to my best and dearest friend,
19:20Miss Honoria Randall
19:21of the County Wicklow Randalls.
19:23Honoria is generally very shy, Captain Mason,
19:25but I've persuaded her
19:27to make a public appearance
19:27just this once.
19:31I'm sure her presence at lunch
19:32will enliven proceedings.
19:34Don't you agree?
19:35Miss Randall, I'm enchanted to meet you.
19:38Any friend of Miss Hutchinson
19:39will find favour with me.
19:43Shall we go in?
19:45Miss Randall?
19:46I'd be honoured.
19:58The police have been all over Lyman's
19:59asking questions,
20:00but no-one's saying anything.
20:02So much for friends.
20:03Ned,
20:04it was a bare-knuckle fight.
20:05The betting was illegal.
20:06No-one wants to go to prison.
20:07What an eye do.
20:09Mind interrupting something?
20:11Fancy some company?
20:13Well, we was having
20:14a private conversation,
20:15but we've finished
20:16the business side of things,
20:17haven't we, Ned?
20:17Yeah, I ought to be going.
20:19My mate Neil's up at the counter
20:21waiting for you to buy her a drink.
20:25And while you're up there,
20:26I'll have a drink.
20:27Miss Stout for...
20:29Ned, was it?
20:31I'm Vilo.
20:32Uh,
20:34Vilo.
20:35I'm a busy man.
20:37I'm not so busy
20:38you can't stop and have one drink.
20:43Unless, of course,
20:45there's someone else.
20:48There's no one.
20:51Good.
20:52Dan,
20:53he'll have a pint.
20:59A delightful lunch,
21:01Lady Wakefield.
21:01Thank you, Mr Chambers.
21:03And a delightful company.
21:05I think Chambers
21:06is paying you a compliment,
21:07Miss Randall.
21:08A compliment most sincerely meant.
21:11I might have understand
21:12that Mr Chambers' compliment to me
21:13is equal to the one
21:15he's paying Lady Wakeley's cook.
21:16I don't know if I should be
21:17flattered or insulted.
21:19I assure you, Miss Randall,
21:21I rate you far superior,
21:23even to Lady Wakeley's
21:24superb syllabum.
21:25In that case,
21:26I shall attempt to accept
21:27your compliments sweetly.
21:29Although,
21:29I don't think I can measure
21:30up to my rival.
21:32I thought I just assured you...
21:33Your little subterview
21:33has been breathtakingly successful.
21:35Mr Chambers.
21:36And he's quite the toast of the day.
21:38I have yet to be assured
21:38my superiority to the other courses.
21:40I was just telling Captain Mason
21:42how much we'd enjoyed cows this year.
21:44You were there?
22:09I thought you said you had to get back.
22:12I thought you said you had to get back.
22:21I thought Lady Wakeley monopolised
22:23Captain Mason after lunch.
22:25And I hated her pearl choker.
22:27Pearls are so common now.
22:29Talking of which,
22:30perhaps you'd better give me
22:31the amber now,
22:32just in case.
22:50And you mustn't worry about what happened.
22:52It was just a silly accident.
22:55At least it's Sunday tomorrow.
22:57What's so good about Sunday?
23:00I can't go shooting on Sundays.
23:05I wish Ned was here.
23:10He's a footman, Tom.
23:11He has to stay in London.
23:19Are you sure you've got to get back?
23:21We could always stay here.
23:23Make a night of it.
23:25I've got a landlord
23:26who looks the other way.
23:32No.
23:33No, I'd better get back.
23:36Right then.
23:38We'll just have to make haste slowly,
23:40as they say.
23:41No, I mean now.
23:46I've got to get back now.
23:48Change your tune.
23:55I'm sorry.
23:57Thanks very much.
24:00It's not you.
24:02I thought I wanted...
24:03Just go.
24:04Eh?
24:24Good heavens, what I know it is that?
24:26Marjorie, go upstairs and find out
24:28what all that screaming is about, will you?
24:33So you're not fond of shooting parties,
24:35Lady Madison Scrivener?
24:36The company may be congenial,
24:38but the actual shoot...
24:40I would rather follow more gentle pursuits,
24:44even if it is a little late for croaky.
24:47And perhaps rather too windy
24:48for this time of year.
24:52That's my little gallery of visitors.
24:55Trophies, you might call them.
24:58Harold Bond, the poet.
24:59Do you know him?
25:01Rarely takes a bath.
25:04And that's Lord Hartington.
25:06Mind you, he didn't come for the shooting.
25:07He did a lot of mooning about down by the lake.
25:10I think he was in love.
25:11And that's Captain Mason.
25:14And of course you know him.
25:16A little.
25:20Marjorie?
25:21Bit of an upset.
25:22One of the children playing tricks on Master St. John.
25:24Nanny Wickham says to tell you she's sorting it out.
25:26Thank you, Marjorie.
25:40Where's Lydia?
25:41I told you she'll be coming along with her family, won't she?
25:44Can't you sit with us?
25:46She'll have to sit with the people from the hall.
25:52Come on.
25:53Come on.
25:56Come on.
26:12Don't you look well turned out?
26:27Oh, Susanne.
26:28For bacon, my lichiest dress.
26:29Now, your boots are all muddy.
26:31Oh, I'm scared I can stand a bit of dirt, Mum.
26:36Here we are, Dad.
26:37Oh.
26:37We brought you some tobacco in from London.
26:40And a cake for Mum.
26:42Big to the big house they cook.
26:44And, er, sweets for the little'uns.
26:48Yeah!
26:48They must have big cake tins up at the house.
26:51It's all right, Mother Willie.
26:52Lydia's today and have yours in the week.
26:53Bye.
26:54Oh, no, Mum.
26:56Well, I only meant this as a present.
26:58I'd much rather have some of your from the cake.
27:03I used to dream about opening that cake when I was in London.
27:06Don't be daft.
27:08This be a proper cake.
27:10Look, it's even got cherries.
27:13We can all have a great big slice, can't we, children?
27:16Cake from the big house.
27:20There you are.
27:23Annabelle was looking for you.
27:25Why, shouldn't you be out there keeping her amused?
27:27I'm afraid my ideas of amusement don't always correspond with your sisters, George.
27:32Was there something you wanted?
27:35St. John just told me that he and his wife were married nine years ago today.
27:39Should we acknowledge this at dinner, do you think?
27:41A toast, perhaps?
27:42No, perhaps not.
27:44Since he only told me privately.
27:46You're asking me if their marriage is cause for celebration?
27:51I'm sorry to interrupt your literary pursuits.
27:53I would hardly call ten minutes in the library on my own the pursuit of literature.
27:59And I think you answered your own question, George.
28:01No announcement.
28:02Yes, that's what Hugh thought.
28:04I'm not entirely sure that Hugh is the first person I would consult for etiquette.
28:09Come in.
28:10I'm afraid it's boring for you, Constance.
28:13Shoot, all this masculine company.
28:15Some very dull women.
28:16Not very lively.
28:17Making you bad-tempered.
28:20Mr. Broomfield says to tell you that a gentleman's arrived, your ladyship.
28:23Thank you, Marjorie.
28:24Excuse me, George.
28:27My dear.
28:30Well, what an odd question, Arndt.
28:32Her husband can't ask his wife what jewels she plans to wear for dinner.
28:35Well, I have no choice.
28:36I wore the garnets last night.
28:38I'm saving the rupees for the fancy dress.
28:39It'll have to be the pearls.
28:42Unlike Lady Lamson, Scrivener and the Duchess,
28:44I do not have an unending supply of heirlooms to choose from.
28:47Why on earth do you ask?
28:48No reason.
28:49Well, why ask the question, then?
28:53Mrs. St. John?
28:55St. John?
28:58So I told him,
28:59you can't let land life follow for four years
29:01and expect to do nothing to the topsoar before you plan on it.
29:04Literally don't want to hear all that, Joel.
29:06No, Mum, but I do.
29:08You don't know what it's like being that posh house,
29:11no-one to talk to?
29:12House full of servants and she says she's got no-one to talk to?
29:15Who does he have here, my girl,
29:17except Janie and the dairy and those awful Bates girls?
29:24Where's Becky gone?
29:25Washing the dishes.
29:26Oh, I'll go and help her then.
29:28You'll do no such thing.
29:29You'll visit her.
29:39Dad, you were saying about the lower field.
29:41Don't matter.
29:42I hear you've been making apple chutney.
29:44Oh, good crop this year.
29:46How many jars?
29:47Thirty.
29:47Thirty?
29:48I'll go and get you, but we'll take back.
29:50Best let me choose, Joel.
29:52I know which is best.
30:10Do you mind if I smoke?
30:12Oh, I know which is.
30:12I know which is.
30:38I know which is best.
30:40But it's good.
30:42I know which is a good thing.
30:42Are you going back to the house? Hop in.
30:46That's very kind of you, Mr. Fowler.
31:04Walk on.
31:08I've just been to the station to collect a vase for his lordship.
31:12Sent all the way from London on the train.
31:16See that package?
31:18It's worth hundreds.
31:20Go over a rut in the road and we'll both be out of the shore.
31:29Pleased to see you, were they, the family?
31:31Yes.
31:36It's difficult when you've moved away.
31:38They've changed in all sorts of ways and they've just stayed the same.
31:44It's difficult for everyone.
31:48When I first moved away, I used to write a long letter home to my mother every month.
31:53Just a chat it was, really.
31:55About everything and nothing.
31:57It meant things weren't so formal when I went home to visit.
32:01Not so much ground to cover.
32:04Well, um, that's all right for them that can write.
32:08Or read, come to that.
32:12I could help you with a letter.
32:15And I expect there's someone in the village who could read it to your parents.
32:19You could help me.
32:21With writing.
32:41I'm sorry you missed the charades, Captain Mason.
32:44At one point we were acting a small scene involving a sea captain.
32:49Hardly the same thing as a guards officer art.
32:51Absolutely not, Lady Wilkins.
32:53Sea captains are famously hairy, usually old.
32:56Tellers of salty tails with language to match.
32:59Well, I would certainly have disappointed in the matter of the beard.
33:02But the salty tails, there are stories circulating in the mess that are certainly full of flavouring.
33:08In which case I'd be extremely grateful if you keep them to yourself, Captain Mason.
33:12Lady Lampson Scribner, I am a model of discretion.
33:15I often wonder if the stories...
33:17But where will we be without discretion, Captain Mason?
33:19The stories that appear in the mess rooms of ships and army barracks are the very same ones we used
33:23to tell each other in school.
33:25Only given a more robust flavouring for older panads.
33:37I thought you weren't coming.
33:40I got held up in London.
33:42Victoria, my sweet, this really isn't a good idea.
33:44Harry, I know what you said in London.
33:46I understand that it's dangerous, but we can do this.
33:49We can find a way around it.
33:50It's more complicated than that.
33:51I'm telling you, my darling, it isn't complicated at all.
33:54We have to do this all the time.
33:55Do you think no-one noticed at dinner?
33:58The way you talked to me, the way you were looking?
34:00I don't care who you...
34:01No, Victoria, I don't think you understand.
34:04This has gone too far.
34:05We must stop.
34:49Victoria, I know this weekend hasn't
34:51been exactly your idea of a pleasant interlude,
34:56and I know things have been difficult lately.
35:00But I just wanted to say...
35:03I just wanted to say...
35:06Good heavens, are you all right?
35:10I have a headache, Arnold. It's very late.
35:13I know. I'm straight to the point.
35:17I just wanted to say that after nine years of marriage,
35:22nine years, Victoria,
35:24you are still the only woman I could ever want.
35:27And I hope you can accept this little token of my love.
35:40I'll open it.
35:50Asprey's.
35:52Ninety-three diamonds.
35:55Because we were married in 93 and I thought diamonds were best.
36:00Here, let me help.
36:16It's beautiful.
36:19Nice against your skin.
36:25Tom?
36:26Tom, what's all this?
36:30I'm scared, Nanny.
36:32I don't want to go shooting.
36:34Please don't make me go.
36:36I'm sorry, Tom.
36:38There's nothing to be done.
36:39Your father insists.
36:42Hey, you never know.
36:44You may surprise yourself.
36:46My old dad always says the cold times when you least expect it.
37:05Don't have to watch my step.
37:06It will be frightfully humiliating if my cousin bags more than me.
37:09Not impossible, Hugh. Mark my words, sir.
37:12And now there's even more competition.
37:15I'm told Captain Mason is more than a competent shot with a rifle.
37:18And judging from a few burning glances being fired across the dinner table last night,
37:23he's pretty competent at more than just shooting.
37:27Ah, Tom.
37:29There you are.
37:30Understand what's required of you, boy dear?
37:32Speak up, Tom.
37:34Can't call your tongue, has it?
37:35You.
37:36Right.
37:37Physicians, I think.
37:38Never mind.
37:39There's a good aim that's required in this game.
37:41You don't have to say a word.
37:44Well, get in line, boy.
37:46It's all left to come to me.
37:48Get in line.
37:48I will not be made a fool of you, hear me?
37:54Stand by me, Tom.
37:57Good man.
37:59So far?
38:00Right, boy.
38:01Here we go.
38:03Look along the barrel.
38:04Never fire until the bird is four square in view.
38:07And be careful of this arm.
38:09I've seen a boy break his shoulder from the recoil gun in the wrong position, you see.
38:13Look at the way he's standing, father.
38:15How is he going to be able to swing around when the bird's going around?
38:18Well observed, Louis.
38:20Right, boy.
38:21Knees bent a little.
38:22Feet slightly apart and firm.
38:25Don't move that arm.
38:27You'll get knocked over backwards.
38:29Now, remember everything I've said, boy.
38:31Look along the barrel.
38:32Don't put the left hand too far down.
38:34Take aim.
38:36I've given your loaders some stronger cartridges.
38:39Make the thing go with a real bang.
38:40All right?
38:44Father!
38:44You will shoot or you'll get a thrashing.
38:47You hear me?
38:48Cowardy, cowardy, caster.
38:52smarter!
38:55I'm out!
38:56Turtle!
39:00Officer!
39:07그�üy%.
39:09Tom!
39:10Shut up and shoot!
39:12Cowardy, cowardy, caster!
39:15Halfety, も только with Seven-Dazs go!
39:17Mandel!
39:18Just shoot!
39:26Mandel!
39:35Oh, my.
39:37I don't move it.
39:38It's just.
39:39I would not.
39:46What have you done?
40:01Mrs. Sinchen.
40:02Yes?
40:03I'm afraid there's been an accident, a shooting accident.
40:06No.
40:06Your husband has been wounded.
40:08My husband?
40:09I've summoned the doctor and the men are carrying him in now.
40:12Oh, no.
40:12I'm terribly sorry.
40:14This is a dreadful business.
40:15Mrs. Sinchen.
40:17I think you should know the circumstances.
40:20I'm afraid it was your son who shot your husband.
40:35I'll tell you.
40:36Oh, my God.
40:43Victoria.
40:47Ah.
40:49The doctor.
40:51OK.
40:52You see?
40:53Keep still.
40:54You should be locked in your room for a week on bread and water, young sir.
40:59It's attempted murder. No more, no less.
41:02There's a word for it.
41:03Nanny Barlow?
41:04Patricide. A son killing his father.
41:07You can go to the gallows.
41:09It was an accident.
41:10No accident, she said.
41:12The result of poor upbringing, that's what I see.
41:16Somebody's stinting in the smacking department.
41:19Not enough discipline in the nursery.
41:20Nanny Barlow.
41:21From what I've seen of Nanny Wickham, she is an excellent nanny.
41:25And discipline in the St. John nursery is more than adequate.
41:30Go along, young Tom. Off to bed. Nanny will go with you.
41:33Thank you, Nanny Wickham.
41:35I think he's had quite enough for one day.
41:43I am not accustomed to being contradicted in front of children.
41:47And I am not accustomed to visitors taking charge in my nursery, Nanny Barlow.
41:53Master Tom is not the only one who needs reprimanding.
41:56This jacket, look.
41:58Bloodstains.
41:59Just the place a young boy would conceal a dead pheasant.
42:06His idea of a little joke.
42:12Good day, Nanny Barlow.
42:15I'm sure you'll be wanting to have a word with Lord Louis.
42:29It's lovely, Bertie.
42:31Can I show Flory?
42:33Of course you can.
42:37It's you in the dress that you were wearing when you went out with cousin Isabel.
42:42Have you done any pictures of your baby brother, Master Bertie?
42:45Only from before, when he was a sickly baby.
42:48I haven't done any pictures of him since he was a new baby.
42:51Bertie, Flory has to take the tray down to the kitchen.
42:55Why don't you go and find a puzzle in the cupboard?
42:57I haven't done any pictures of him until he was still in the cupboard.
42:57Let me just leave the cupboard.
43:04I haven't just left.
43:20Have a good night.
43:26I haven't just left.
43:28Fowler said you wanted to see me, father.
43:32Did you supply that boy with cartridges this afternoon?
43:36Bissingen, lad. Yes, I did. Gave his loader a handful.
43:40Why? The boy was in a blue funk.
43:43Needed waking up. Bit of a jolt. That's your explanation.
43:48Surely you're not going to blame me for what happened to his father. Blame?
43:51That's a fine word. Constance.
43:55You hand over dangerous, lethal cartridges to an eight-year-old boy
43:59and the reason you give is that he needed waking up?
44:02Come on, Constance. It was just a joke.
44:06It's not the kind of joke one expects from a gentleman.
44:11Father, tell her she's overreacting.
44:16You may go. I have nothing to add.
44:37I'll get you some more milk.
44:41I'm not sure you deserve it, mind.
44:43I know. I really am bad, aren't I?
44:49Why did you do it, Tom?
44:52I don't know.
44:54It just happened.
44:55I didn't mean to, Nanny.
44:57It just happened.
45:00That's what I thought.
45:02It just happened.
45:05It doesn't necessarily make you bad, does it?
45:11Sometimes bad things happen.
45:14And they're not really someone's fault, are they?
45:19That someone just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
45:31What's that?
45:33Something wrong?
45:34Shh.
45:38What are you doing?
45:39Shh.
45:41Get off.
45:42Come on, Ned.
45:44I'd be so close to get fast asleep.
45:46It's like the moon will look weird.
45:48No, Pringle.
45:49I'll know when I...
45:51I won't be able to live with myself, you silly little...
45:53What?
45:53Ivy.
45:54You go back to your room now
45:56and forget this ever happened, all right?
46:00I don't want to forget.
46:01Pringle.
46:02I said now.
46:04Go.
46:26Well, well.
46:28It isn't it, Nanny?
46:30Good evening, sir.
46:32Aren't you even going to ask me why I'm here?
46:40You come look for the last of the shoe?
46:44Yes, my face.
46:45Nasty, isn't it?
46:48Aren't you going to ask me how I did it, Lydia?
46:51No, of course not.
46:53You already know, don't you?
46:55No, sir.
46:55And in answer to the question that you didn't care to ask,
46:59I'm not just here for a couple of days shooting.
47:02I've decided to take more of a hand in the running of the estate.
47:07Something my father's been on at me to do for a long time.
47:11And do you know the first thing I'm going to suggest to him?
47:14Sir, I don't think you should at all.
47:16I'm going to suggest, in the strongest possible terms, mind,
47:21that a certain tenant farmer called Weston gets thrown off his farm.
47:26Why?
47:27Why would you want to do that?
47:29I'm tired of this conversation.
47:31I'm off to bed.
47:33I'll be talking to my father.
47:36Unless a certain nanny speaks to him first.
47:40Offers her resignation.
47:42Makes herself scarce.
47:44Sir, I don't...
47:45I've told you I'm tired.
47:48Suffice it to say, I know who attacked me and why.
47:52I don't know who attacked me and why.
48:07Sleep well.
48:24expose her to death
48:27Or they eat shots.
48:30See nothing.
48:38We're right back now.
48:38Bye!
48:39Bye!
