There he is. My boy!

Hello, Mum.

You're too young to be getting married. You
should still be at home with your mammy.

He'd be an old man before he got
wed if it was up to you.

Hello, son. Hello, Dad.

Let me take those.

Are you all right there, Pa? Aye.
Just a bit sore.

They've got him working all hours
plating ships at the clock.

You'd think we're already at war,
the rate they're building.

It won't come to that. But I'm happy
to do my bit all the same.

Aye. You did that the first time
around.

You sure you don't want to join us
tonight, Pa?

Well... Och, your father's got no
time for all that carry on.

Have you, clear? Uh... No, no, I
suppose not.

I'll carry these inside for you.

It might bejames' last night as a
single man, but don't drink too much.

Ancl more importantly, don't let
James drink too much.

I want him walking Helen down that
aisle tomorrow, not staggering.

You can lead a horse to water,
Mrs H, but you can't make it

guzzle six pints of Sharp's brew.

If you pour it down his bloomin'
neck, you can.

WHIMPERS
Don't be so fussy, Clancy.

It's just for one night.

Mr Mulligan will be back to pick you
up tomorrow evening.

What are you doing? It's only 5.26.

Finished for the day. Already?!

Plenty of bread. The Harris' cat
that needed spaying? Done.

And there's milk too. What about
Mulligan's hellhound Clancy?

Oh, the usual vomiting, but there's
something on his chest, too.

I've administered Digoxin, but we'll
keep him overnight.

See how he responds. Well, make sure he's
locked away, or he'll chew the place to pieces.

Slow and steady wins the race.

Look, I know this must be hard for
you both,

but your days of mollycoddling me
are over.

I'm a fully functioning member of
society now.

You'll just have to find someone
else to mother hen.

Ah, Jim. Perfect timing.

Mrs Hall's got your first tipple of
the evening.

Parents get settled in all right?

Yes, they're staying at the Falcon
Inn again.

You know, James, this wedding business
is really rather inconsiderate of you.

Oh, is it, Siegfried? Yes, it damn
well is.

Then there's the honeymoon you're
drifting gaily off on.

You can't begrudge the boy a
holiday. A week in North Riding. Lovely.

It's not lovely. It's bloody awful.
The whole week.

And I'm here running around,
disappearing halfway up my own backside.

Only halfway. Should have booked in
for two.

I'm sorry, Helen, but spring is our
busiest time of year.

I didn't mean to land you in it
like this. Oh, no.

He's only had it booked in for six
months. Exactly.

You don't plan ahead. You go belting
in without a care in the world.

No, hang on a minute. It was you
who... Marriage is a serious step.

It shouldn't be undertaken
without serious thought.

Right. May I remind you of the old
saying?

Marry in haste, repent at leisure.

Well... Oh, not you two.

I meant people. Other people.

You'll probably be fine.

Are we sure we don't want him to say
a few words at the service?

Hadn't we better eat? We're clue at
the Drovers in, what, an hour?

Ring? Safely stowed in my...

Oh, my God...

Ah, just joking! Just a joke.

Can I check?

Almost offended. Your life wouldn't
be worth living.

Do we understand one another?

Thanks, Tris.

Let's eat.

Thank you, Mrs H.

First time I ever saw you, I was so
distracted

I got off the bus in the middle of
nowhere!

I remember wondering what you were
up to.

I never imagined for a second this
is where we'd end up.

Yes, you did.

Yes. Yes.

I did.

Better hop on.

See you tomorrow. Count on it.

Still time to change your mind. Not
for anything in the world.

Best man buys the first round.

One last look.

Ah...

Spoilsport.

You're going to be all right?

Don't worry about me.

Don't wait up. Look after James.

Don't you misbehave either.

You two be careful up on that roof.
And you, steady with my ale.

Can I have your room since you're
not coming back this time?

My bed'll barely be cold before
you're in it.

Well, what do you expect? It's way
more comfy.

Of course you can.

I'll be back here every clay.

Hey, nothing's going to change.

Just because I'm getting married, it
won't be any different.

You know, Mum would be so proud of
you.

Everything you've clone for us.
Don't. You'll set me off.

I love you to your ruddy bones.

Even if you're an annoying little
tyke.

Less of the little.

Aye. Less of the little.

Now, then, lad, I'm under strict
orders to

make sure you don't get in trouble,
so...

Steady on that ale.

Sort out James, will you? Same
again, Maggie. A shot coming up.

Something stronger? No, no more,
Tom.

I have plenty left here. It's empty.
Which is plenty enough for me.

He's empty-

A yard of ale, if you wouldn't mind,
please, Maggie.

I'll bring it over.

Arthur, shelf in the stock room.

Thanks, Arthur.

I still don't see what he's got that
I haven't.

That tells a story of its own.

Ah, just in time, big brother. How
much is that, Maggie?

But, Tristan, you're a fully
functioning member of society now.

Yes, I am a tiny bit short. Go on.

It's a hell of a thing. One cow we
sold turned out to have tuberculosis.

My whole herd might be infected.

It's the waiting. I can barely sleep
for worrying about it.

Losing your heart is a terrible
thing to contemplate. It's not my herd.

It's the infected milk that might come
from it. People will be drinking that.

We need to know. Sorry.

I shouldn't be spoiling your fun
like this. No, it's fine.

Have a good one, lad.

He lost his first son to TB ten
years ago.

Young Wilf there and his dad had a
struggle.

Milk from his old herd.

You know you're in trouble when they
serve drinks by the length.

No! No, I can't.

Can't? I shouldn't.

Come on.

CHEERING

BANGING ON TABLES

CHEERING

Oh, blimey.

Smells like a brewery in here.

Oh, no, Maggie...

You're a married woman.

Oh, trust you.

Breakfast will be on the table in
five minutes. OK.

Where's James?

I hope you didn't lose him last
night.

I confess the details are a little
hazy.

GROANS

SIGHS

No, no, no...

The ring!

Oh, God...

HE HUMS

You certainly seem in a better state
than your brother.

The exuberance of youth is no match
for the resilience of experience.

Yours, I believe. Found them covered
in mud.

I may have had a slight tumble on my
way home.

I found them in the pantry.

I was in need of cheese.

You took your clothes off for a
slice of cheddar?

Not entirely compos mentis.

And I found this in the pocket.

I thought it prudent to relieve
Tristan of the responsibility.

He left it on the table last night.
I doubt he even realised.

Breakfast will just be a minute.

The rat's yours, I presume?

Ah, yes, I do now recall.

Do you? Not particularly, no.

And what about James? His bed don't
look like it's been slept in.

Here he is. The worst man.

He did come home with you?

Ring all safe and sound? Mm-hm.

Yeah. How are you getting on with
your prize?

Prize? What prize? What are you
talking about?

Siegfried got himself embroiled in
the drinking contest.

We all did, actually. Would you
both, please...

just - I don't remember any contest.
No, it wasn't.

You drank us under the table. Did I?

Where's James?!

Oh, God... What is it?

You better take the Rover. It'll be
quicker.

Oh!

Keys. Where are the keys? On the
hook where they live.

Yes, yes.

CATTLE LOWING

Mr Herriot.

Got a brew for you.

Thank you. Um...

Get cracking, shall we? I don't want
you late to t'church.

I said you shouldn't on the night
before your wedding,

but you wouldn't take no for an
answer.

Insisted on coming back no matter
what.

Well, we don't like to let our
clients down.

You said you want to get started
first thing this morning.

I'm sorry, started on what?

Dear me, you were three sheets to
the wind, weren't you, lad?

The testing, the TB testing. TB
testing?

The cows? My herd.

I see. Of course.

We picked up your equipment on the
way.

I would have brought you in the
house, but you insisted on the barn.

Couldn't shift you for love nor
money.

I wouldn't want to impose on you.

That's not Hi skin Fell...?

Aye, that it be. Now, shall we get
started?

CATTLE LOWING

There they are. I'll get the lads
together.

Won't take long to round them up.

Once they're in the crush, it should
be easy enough.

Unless you're worried it'll be
cutting it fine?

We should be all right.

What's that face?

Very typical. A decent breakfast on
the clay that you're leaving us.

Heard you come in last night. Along
with half the county.

Oh, well... It were very dark.
Couldn't see where I were going.

I said I'd do breakfast this
morning.

Mm... Saying and doing are two
different things.

What happened? Happened?!

Nothing happened.

I'm going to muck out Candy and
Joan. No.

Sit yourself down. I'm fine, Dad.

I'd rather keep busy.

Mm. Mm.

Jim?

Jim?

Seven eight. All good so far, Mr
Henry.

No sign of TB in the half we've
clone.

Come on, Wilfred. Get another
through.

You've still got a job to do here,
you know? Yes, Dad.

Come on. Stubborn beggar won't
shift.

I saw that recruiting officer got
stuck into you last night.

Aye. He did that.

Wilf didn't take much persuading.

I was under the impression farming
was a reserved occupation.

Oh, it is, for the older folk, but
there's nothing stopping

these young lads from signing up,
if that's what they want to do.

I'm proud of him for standing up.

So you should be. James!

Tris? What are you doing here?

I think I'd be neglecting my best man duties
if I didn't ask you the same question.

Mr Henry needed his cows testing.

I'm getting an eerie sense of deja
vu.

Only last time it was Helen hiding,
having second thoughts.

I'm not having second thoughts.

I told him it could wait until after
his wedding.

Jim, you're getting married in two
hours' time.

If any of these cows have
tuberculosis,

and we don't pick it up, it can
spread to

the rest of the herd and into the
milk.

We're here now, and we have a job to
do.

We'll get it clone.

BARKS

Knock, knock.

I was clearing out the bedsit for
Helen and James,

and I found this.

What's this?

Handsome creature.

Ah, Well, I was younger then, you
see.

Still, the year haven't been
completely un...

You're talking about the horse,
aren't you?

That's Sergeant Morris Oliver. Has
his own practice now.

I haven't seen all this stuff for
years.

Evelyn boxed it all up before she
cited.

She was very practical.

She though I was perhaps a bit
lacking in that respect.

There's a lot more boxes up there.

Oh, yes.

I had to get a day's extension to my
leave so we could marry.

We didn't even have time to buy a
ring.

Tied a knot in a length of twine.
Very practical.

Evelyn would approve. Hm.

You've forgotten where you put it,
haven't you? No, absolutely not.

Mrs Hall?

1

Mrs Hall! You really will burst
something one of these clays.

The ring box. It was right there,
and...

Oh, clear.
DOG WHIMPERS

Let me. You'll be absolutely reeking
when you walk down the aisle.

Got time for a bath afterwards.

It's hardly putting you in a
romantic mood.

I'd rather keep myself busy.

Keep your mind off it? Because I
like to be busy.

Why don't you stop? I can fill the
bath for you if you like.

What are you up to? Nothing. I'm
not up to anything.

And what are you hiding back there
for?

No-one's hiding. I were just...
There's a few stones out of place.

The wedding isn't till this
afternoon.

Aye, we know. We've a right to
worry, though.

You know, after last time. You have
got form.

I called off one wedding. It
happened once.

That doesn't mean I've got form.

I lovejames. I'm marryingjames
today.

This afternoon. Nothing's going to
get in t'way of that.

At least, I think it won't...

You think?

Helen?

I've just got so much running
through my mind.

You know, I mean... What about the
chickens?

The chickens? What about them?

Then there's the cows. What are you
talking about, lass?

The chickens are fine. I'll be
milking the cows.

Then I think what it might be like
to be married.

James isn't... bad.

Dad... All right, then, he's good.

No father could wish for more for
his daughter.

But I'm telling you, I'm not going
through all that bloody nonsense again.

I'm just not.

Oh...

You're having me on. She's having
me on.

Very funny. I'll go and see to
t'pigs.

Going to give me a bloody heart
attack one clay, you.

You can pack it in an' all.

I thought farmers and vets were
protected.

They are. We are. Reserved
occupations.

But Wilfred was able to volunteer.

Maybe we could too.

Looking after animals keeps food on
plates.

Doubtless you'll protect more people
by preventing TB spread

than you ever would with a gun in
your hand.

It is a shame for the women of the
world, though.

I mean, I would look good in a
uniform.

Right, this looks like the last one.
Come on. Confirm code number 76.

Six... Seven, seven.

Your herd's is in good shape, Mr
Henry.

Thank the Lord for that. Grand work,
Mr Herriot.

That's the last one. Come on, then.
Let's go.

Are we missing some? No, no, don't
think so.

There's one left to do.

She could be in the bracken down
by the stream.

Wilfred, get down in the gully, and
look for a cow.

I'm afraid we... We really must be
getting going, Mr Henry.

He's right. I won't have you missing
your wedding.

Thank you for coming up so fast.

Make sure you keep her away from the rest of the
herd, or we'll have to test them all again. Will do.

Now, don't keep that young lass
waiting a moment longer.

Thank you, Mr Henry.
SHOUTING

Mr Herriot!

COW LOWING

Come on, then. Quick!

Must have clone something to her
leg, Mr Herriot.

There we are, Clancy. Oh, I'm sorry.

That doesn't taste very nice, does
it?

Shouldn't they be back by now? Well,
my brother is reliably unreliable.

What about this one? Still no luck?

For a dog with a fondness for
vomiting,

he's been decidedly uncooperative.

I've tried linseed oil, salt water,
now mustard and then soda crystals.

See if that doesn't force the issue.

One wonders if a lesson might have
been learned.

What are you implying, Mrs Hall?
Well, there's no implying.

Straight-up telling you - sticking
your beak in has created this mess.

I dispute that - because of my
actions,

we know exactly where the ring is.

It's inside a dog.

If I left it with Tristan, we wouldn't
have a bloody clue where it was.

At least this way we're sure. For
all the good it does.

I think it's extremely unfair of
you, given the efforts I've made.

I let Tristan run surgery entirely
by himself.

And you know how much I valuejames.

That doesn't change the fact he's
getting married today.

Because of your meddling, there's no
blooming ring, and he's

up in the Dales instead of getting
ready for his wedding.

It was James's choice to go up to
Henry's.

I'm sure the way you went on last
night had nothing to do with it.

Which one? That one.

I'm touched you even asked.

I don't know why you're carrying on
like this. I'd finished.

You know, Herriot has a much thicker
skin than you give him credit for.

He's only up at that farm because
you

made him feel guilty about
going away.

Why are you giving me this? I need
you to run me up to Weston Grange.

I'd said I'd help Helen get ready.

And you need to get over to Henry's
and bring that boy back.

What about Clancy? I've just given
him an emetic. I can't very well leave him.

WHIMPERING

You really are the most ridiculous
creature.

I hope you're referring to the dog.

Did you putjames's suit in the back?
He won't have time to come back here.

Yes, yes.

Did you hear cracking as the bone
moved?

What do you say, Mr Herriot?

It's not great. Mr Henry, the
metacarpus is fractured,

and the bone's only staying in place

because these muscles of hers are
holding it there.

And it's causing her a great deal
of pain.

Right. If there's nothing that can
be clone...

that's the way of it.

No need to delay yourself any
further, Mr Herriot.

Time to get thee wed.

Wilfred, fetch my gun, would you?

That's it? I tried. Not very hard
from where I'm standing.

Wilfred! Sorry, Pa, but they're
meant to help.

Otherwise, what's the point in them?
I suppose we could try a splint.

It'd keep the weight off the leg,
and maybe give it a chance to heal.

It's a long shot, but at least then we
can say we've exhausted everything.

What about your wedding? We'll go
straight to church when we're clone.

Helen'll have to take me as I am.

Thanks for doing this again. No,
it's my pleasure.

For a mother without daughters, this
is something I never thought

I'd get to do once, let alone twice.

I wish my mam were here.

She is, in you and in your sister.

Aye.

Were you nervous?

Well, I didn't have time to be.
Robert only had a few clays' leave.

Not just about the wedding.

Everything after.

We were in love.

Robert were kind, and a good man.

It didn't turn out how I'd hoped -
the war put paid to that.

But when I married him,

I didn't have any doubts at all.

You don't have any doubts about
James, do you?

Definitely not.

Lovely.

Give us a minute, would you?

Mrs Pumphrey is sorry she can't be
here,

but Tricki has promised to tell her
all about it.

Funny looking thing, isn't it?

Mr Alderson, apologise at once.

All right, lad.

Right, um...

I'm sorry, Tricki.

Your sister is aware of the time, is
she?

Keep your hair on, Dad.

Look all right?

Aye... Middling.

I'll see you there. Careful on that
bike.

Herriot?

Mr Henry?

This was never going to work. Then
the question does beg to be asked...

What was I supposed to do? Just walk
away?

What on earth do you think you're
doing?!

Good afternoon, William. I'm afraid I'm
going to have to take this one away with me.

I need to splint the leg. It's your
wedding day, you damn fool.

I'm sorry. I've never known anyone
with

more passion and dedication to the
care of animals.

But he still doesn't know when to
call it a clay.

I thought maybe if she keeps the
weight off it -

You know perfectly well that's just
going to prolong the inevitable.

Out of the way. Let me see.

COW LOWS

James, it's your wedding.

I understand you felt you had to do
this,

but really, some things are more
important.

Mr Henry, we've clone everything we
can for her,

and she must be in terrible pain.

I understand.

Thanks for trying, Mr Herriot.

Wilfred.

You shouldn't have to do that today.

I'll do it.

Very good.

I'll follow you.

I'd rather not stay, if you don't
mind.

Bye, old lass.

COW LOWS

Used one before?

When I was much younger.

Safety's still on.

If you've not got the stomach for
it...

Thank you.

Someone's got to do it.

GUN SHOT

Siegfried, why is Clancy coming to
the wedding with us?

Oh... He's been a friend of the
practice for some time now.

I'd be strange if he wasn't there.

I didn't sleep the night before my
wedding.

My head going a thousand miles an
hour.

Did you ever worry what kind of
husband you would be?

What sort of man?

Too late. If I decided...

What if I was needed somewhere else?

Somewhere else? What are you
talking about? Wilfred signed up.

James... No!

What you do... What we do is far
more important than any...

You shouldn't even be contemplating
such a thing. Today of all clays.

You're too important here. You're staying
here, and that's a bloody end to it.

You know, it is the tradition that
the groom arrives before the bride.

He'll be here.

Come on!

Shoes. Siegfried, where are my
shoes?

Borrow mine. Oh, you're driving!

SCREECHING Siegfried...

They're too big. Wellies it is,
then.

SLOSHING

Oh, well clone! That's absolutely
perfect timing.

What is? What's wrong with him?

That's it, Clancy. Good lad.

Oh, well clone.

All right, lad. Take a breath. She's
not here yet.

Oh, thank Christ. Heavens.

Oh, James, wellies! Take mine.

What happened to your good shoes?!

You missing something?

Oh, God. Thank God.

You ought to start taking your
responsibilities more seriously.

Use me as your example. I pride
myself on always, always...

Siegfried... It's nothing to do with
me. You're on your own.

Siegfried! You need to help.

I don't... I'm sorry. Helen is right
behind us.

I know. She's going to hurt me.
Something... No, something will...

Oh, God. Come on, Clancy. Don't eat
your lead, please.

Don't eat your lead.

BARKING

Oh, don't ask! Clancy.

BARKING

Excuse me. Sorry. Sorry, everybody.

Sorry. Excuse me. Sorry. By the
skin of your teeth.

Well, that we're here at all is
something of a miracle.

Siegfried...

Hold this.

Ready to go? Yes. Yes, absolutely.

Tm-KQP-

It's the ring, isn't it?

WEDDING MARCH PLAYS

Please be seated.

Have this woman, and will thou
have this man

to be thy wedded husband, and to
live together

according to God's Law in the holy
state of matrimony?

Will thou love him, comfort him,
hon our and keep him

in sickness and in health,

and forsaking all others, keep thee
only unto him

for as long as ye both shall live?

I will. Excellent.

Now, the ring.

The ring? Tris?

Oh, the ring...?

You want the ring? At this point
in the service, that is the tradition.

But how do we feel about tradition
in these modern - Tris...

It's all right.

I pocketed it before we went out
last night for safe...

My other jacket.

Perhaps this might suffice?

Perfect.

Absolutely perfect.

Shall we proceed? Repeat after me.

I, James Alfred Herriot...

take thee... Take thee Helen
Rosemary Alderson...

to have and to hold from this clay
forward, for better, for worse,

for richer, for poorer.

In sickness and in health.

To love and to cherish till death us
do part.

According to God's Holy Law.

And thereto, I give thee my troth.

I memorised it. Course you did.

Now, the bride.

Repeat after me. I, Helen Rosemary
Alderson...

I, Helen Rosemary Alderson...

take the James Alfred Herriot

to have and to hold from this clay
forward,

for better, for worse, for richer,
for poorer,

in sickness and in health.

To love and to cherish till death us
do part

according to God's Holy Law,

and thereto, I give thee my troth.

I didn't want you showing me up.

You may now...

kiss the bride.

CHEERING

James, I was just telling Tristan -
Leave the man be.

Have fun.

You take them. Don't look at me.

ALL: Bye.

Come on.

Go all right with Henry's cow?

She was in terrible pain.

It was the best thing.

It doesn't make it any easier.

James felt he couldn't give up.

His sense of duty'll be the death of
one of these days.

How was it today? No drama or
last-minute wobbles?

No, none.

You? No.

Stop the car. Pull up over here.

You know this is the furthest I
have ever been from home?

James, look at this.

Oh, James, is that you?

How was it? Good trip? Yes!

Hello. Has he seen it yet? The sign.

Why is that thing always out of its
cage?

I did notice the sign, but why?
Name above the door.

Wedding present. Well, not a
present.

You've deserved it. Earned it.

Commitment to the cause and
what-not.

Deserved what?

I - He's making you partner. Mrs Hall, I was
really rather hoping to tell him that myself.

Partnership? In the practice? A
50-50 split?

Well, plenty of time to iron out the
details.

Thank you, Siegfried. Really.

Yes, thank you. Oh, good God, no
need to get all dewy-eyed about it.

Oh, the boy's happy. Leave him be.

See you again soon. You're back.
How was it?

I want to hear all about it. Let me just
get changed and we'll go to the Drovers.

Actually, we thought we might go and get
settled in the bedsit, didn't we, James?

We did? Oh, right, we did.

We did.

Oh, James, you'll find another little
wedding present installed in your...

GIGGLING

new home.

PHONE RINGS

At least it'll save traipsing all
the way downstairs.

We'll find somewhere new. I promise.

Shush. James, it's perfect.

As long as we're here together,
it'll be perfect.

PHONE RINGS

Someone else will get it.

Oh, for goodness sake!

Darrowby 2297.
