Eh?

Well, there's... there's a woman in the village,

and she reckons she can lay her hands on some gumboots,

so sh... so she's coming here

to talk about selling them.

What's wrong with the kitchen?

Well, there's too many distractions.

There's people coming and going.

Oof! Oh. Ah.

He set light to the paper.

I couldn't save it all.

What was on it?

Numbers, letters.

No words, none that I recognized anyway.

Mm.

Did you get a proper look at him?

He had his back to me.

Long coat, hat.

That could be any number of people.

You say he took the suitcase with him?

I couldn't see what was in it.

Maybe a radio.

Maybe not.

What were you doing on my land?

Taking a shortcut home.

It's not a shortcut.

I came here to report what I'd seen.

Thought you'd want to know.

Thank you. I'll take care of this.

Put me through to the police.

I don't do discounts. That's what it costs.

How did you hear about me?

Everyone round here knows you.

How long will it take?

Not long. But it takes a while to recover afterwards.

Does it hurt?

Yes, but the pain goes away.

Most people find that better than the alternative.

Is it for you?

Doesn't matter that you're older.

Works just as well, and I keep me mouth shut.

You won't go hearing any whispers.

A week from now, it'll be like nothing ever happened.

[Dog barking]

Martin, here.

What's that for?

Shelves. They're broken.

I want you to go to Mr. Mortimer's

Have I taught you nothing about the art of haggling, hmm?

Ha ha.

How long will I have to keep paying for it, eh?

Let me help you.

You can't.

[Inhales deeply]

[Exhales] We've, um, been like

a big family in this house, haven't we?

Our sons, land girls, Chamberlain.

Like any family,

there's been times I wanted to throw

There's also been times when...

I would've moved mountains for you all,

Except Billy, who is my flesh and blood.

Hey, not that I wouldn't move mountains for him,

but things were on a clearer footing there,

if you know what I mean.

[Exhales]

Let me be the father.

Well, I'll say I'm the father,

And everybody makes assumptions anyway, don't they?

Me and you living under the same roof and all.

[Chuckles]

Yeah, sorry.

Why would you want anyone to think

you'd been with me, eh?

I'm not laughing at you.

You're a good man, Frederick Finch,

Why? What do they say?

Look. This is my problem, not yours.

I saw her leaving...

Hettie foster. [Sighs]

Don't go down that path, please.

I haven't decided what I'm gonna do yet.

What she does...

It's not safe, is it?

It's butchery.

I'm married. When my Stanley comes home, what then, eh?

It's not worth risking your life for.

The shame, Fred.

You're a man. You can get away with these things.

I'm not 17. I won't be forgiven.

What about Martin, eh?

How will he cope if something happens to you?

Think about it.

Yes?

Need some brackets.

What type of brackets?

Shoulder or lug, wooden or metal,

structural or ornamental?

Mr. Finch just said brackets.

Uh, for shelves.

This is a professional establishment.

Perhaps you'd do better at the sweet shop.

Good morning, sir.

Oh, finish serving your customer.

Oh, yes, I have.

What can I do for you?

I need something pretty specialist.

You reckon you might be up to it?

You'd struggle to find a better-stocked establishment

in the whole of the country, sir,

even in these troubled times.

Only last year I was the recipient

of a prestigious medal of excellence

from the British association of hardware suppliers.

Well, you can't argue with that.

Ah, it's my lighter.

Brought it back from active service.

Well, you truly are a hero, sir.

A yank gave it to me for saving his life.

The pin's gone. Needs replacing.

I'm sure I can help you.

Well, he had it specially commissioned

from a rare metal.

I'd like the pin to match.

That won't be a problem.

And what is the name of the material in question?

Flibbleanium. [Martin chuckles]

Who's l.L.?

Don't know. Maybe I bought it.

Hmm. Or stole it.

Hmm. I'm amazed you managed to carry one cigarette back

without smoking it.

The pain's worse today.

It doesn't matter.

No, it does. The doctor's pushing you too hard.

I'm starting to remember. That's all that matters.

Just leave it.

Joyce: Um, lady hoxley?

Yes, Joyce?

It's about John. He's starting to get some memories back.

Oh, that's excellent news.

It is, but I'm not happy

about the way that Dr. Channing has been treating him.

Keeps pushing John to remember what happened.

Dr. Channing is a professional, Joyce.

I think he knows best.

The formalities for the hospital using my property.

I gather you're going to be here for a while longer.

So it would seem.

It's not what we in the trade call a common material.

Mom's got a bracelet made of it.

[No audio]

Perhaps it goes by another name on these shores.

Well, you're the expert, apparently.

You idiot! I should ban children from this shop.

Martin: I'm not a child.

Pretty shoddy outfit you're running here.

[Hammering]

Been looking everywhere for you.

You could have told me.

What?

That she was being taken away.

Penny?

What, she's gone?

You didn't know.

I must have left the stall open.

I'm so sorry. I'll go and look for her.

No. Get that lot out.

Might be able to use some of them on storey's farm.

Stay there.

Brace yourself.

Connie: This better be good.

Relax. Just talking to my new friend here.

What's that?

Oh, it's a long time since we've been this close.

Mm. Not long enough.

This is Mortimer's.

We borrowed it.

Take it back.

Man: It's not worth anything.

That's not the point.

He deserves to lose it.

If you could see the way he treats his customers.

Yeah.

- Martin, go home. - No.

Do you want me to tell Esther what you did?

I'm supposed to buy brackets.

Connie: That's not my problem. Scram.

See you around, kid.

I don't want him mixed up with you.

You should go, Danny.

Look, I want that lamb back.

It's important to Iris.

Poor girl, she's hardly any age,

I'm offering you a truce.

You can help me end this before we both wind up dead.

Your brother cracked half the bones in my old man's body.

Look, he could be anywhere.

Well, then you go to the police.

Then tell those girls to watch their backs.

No more violence, Walter!

Why would I want to Nick your stupid medal?

- To sell it. - It's a bleeding fake.

Mortimer: Are you gonna stand there and let

this common thief slur my good name.

Did you hear what he called me?

I don't know if you even won it. Bet you made the whole thing up.

Outrageous allegations.

Who gives out awards for hardware shops for pity's sake?

Perhaps we could all just lower our voices.

The British association of hardware suppliers is

a nationally respected organization.

Connie: Not to anyone with half a brain.

Mortimer: How dare you? Henry: Desist!

You feeling all right, Vic?

Henry: I'm fine. I think there's been

a misunderstanding here.

Connie, what were you doing with Mr. Mortimer's award?

Straightening it.

And what did you learn about it?

That it's very prestigious

and probably worth a lot of money.

Satisfied?

Excellent.

I'm glad we cleared that up.

Uh, better get back to the farm.

Uh, Connie.

Are you gonna walk me?

Oh, probably not. Bet you're busy, ain't you?

[Kiss] See you later.

What were you doing with Mortimer's award?

Straightening it. Well, you know me.

Everything has to be in the right place.

Sends me potty if it ain't.

No. I hadn't realized that about you.

Mm-hmm. Famous for it.

And why did it need straightening?

Uh, Martin knocked it.

Martin?

But I was right behind you.

It was me.

She was putting it back for me.

Got light fingers, haven't I?

Can't help myself. Connie caught me.

I'm not saying this to embarrass you, Henry.

Why the change of heart?

Look, with Danny, it was always exciting.

Tits and teeth, that was my job.

How resourceful.

But then things got out of hand.
