You don't get paid for standing around, Joe.
Hop to it.
All right, Dad. Keep your hair on. Yeah, hop to it, Joe.
Yeah, yeah.
Here he comes - the finest Irishman in Yorkshire.
If you ever get bored, you can send him my way.
Don't let him hear you say that. He thinks he's God's gift as it is!
For you, m'lady.
Who needs diamonds, eh?
Sam, one of the smokers is out. There's something up with the crane.
That could be me and your Joe one day.
There are better things to do in life
than marriage and fellas, you know.
Ah, I used to say that till I met your dad.
Look where that got you. Mm.
Crane's blocking again. What's this? A mother's meeting?
We have a problem, Mr Shaw.
That looks fine to me.
Now, that crane's a danger to use in its current state.
And how do you intend to load my fish without it?
By hand. It'll take too long.
The Lady Jane's just docked. I want the catch bringing in.
Aye, it'll take longer, but that's the way it's gonna be done.
All right? Load it by hand, lads. I'll see to the Lady Jane.
Grafting for yourself, that's the only way to live.
You would've loved the smuggling life, Liza.
Mm, here we go.
Out on the boat on a beautiful night. Hiding from the excise.
Living on your wits. Getting thrown in jail.
Those were the glory days. Not how I remember 'em.
Another boat coming through! MARY WHISTLES
Here he comes.
Ladies. Looking lovely as ever.
Help me get this lot off.
"Looking lovely as ever, ladies."
Shame we can't say the same about you, Mr Shaw.
"Oh, come on! One little kiss."
CHUCKLING Get off.
CLANGING
Oi! I said that wasn't to be used!
Shaw said if we didn't, we were out of a job.
CLANGING
Albie! CLATTERING
SHOUTING
Man down!
Move, move, move! Joe?
HE BREATHES HEAVILY
I'm all right. HE PANTS
I'm all right. I'm fine.
Somebody get some help. Somebody get some help!
Liza, go! Now!
It's fine. It's fine.
HE GROANS, BREATHES HEAVILY
SAM WINCES
Isn't there something you can give him for the pain?
I've laudanum at two shillings.
Why don't you hold a gun to our heads and be done with it?
I suspect there's nerve damage, possibly a severed tendon.
It's nasty.
Will he lose the hand? Not with any luck, no.
We're not paying you for luck. When can I go back to work, Doctor?
You may keep the hand, Mr Hardacre.
Whether you're able to use it again is another matter.
Right, if you'd like to follow me.
Thank you.
I know he doesn't want to hear this,
but I've seen injuries like this before.
It'll be a long time
before he can use it properly again, if ever.
It's highly unlikely he'll be able to return to labouring.
FOOTSTEPS RECEDE, DOOR OPENS
You're not going soft on me, are you?
No. Let the man be, Liza.
He's already been crushed once today.
I want to stay with my dad.
And they say I'm the baby of the family.
LIZA CHUCKLES Come on, you lot.
Everyone out so your father can get some rest.
Good night, beasts.
Your old dad's gonna be fine.
I know it's bad...
..but it'll mend.
And if it doesn't?
It will.
It has to.
How's Dad?
He's still in a lot of pain,
and he's still pretending otherwise.
But it's his first lie-in in 20-odd years, so that's summat, innit?
A lie-in won't help his hand.
I'm aware of that, Mother.
Rent!
SHE SIGHS
SHE SIGHS
My husband's had an accident, so we had to pay the doctor.
I'm sorry, but we're gonna need more time.
No credit, no excuses.
Hold on a minute. How many years have we lived here
and not once have we been late with the rent, eh?
Don't matter. Where's your compassion, man?
This is our home, and I'm not letting you...
I am so sorry, Mr Gibbons.
Gone and done myself an injury, so I have.
Looks serious. Ah, it'll mend.
I'll be back earning in a couple of days.
SHE SCOFFS You sure about that?
You have my word. Hm.
I'll be back.
It's feeling a bit better.
We'll be in more bother for stringing him along.
You should have left me to it. Ah, the old Mary Hardacre charm.
You nearly had him there right enough
Ah, I'll let that one go on the account of your condition.
Right, you lot. Come on, get a wriggle on. Let's go.
Keep that place straight down there until I get back.
I'll have to speak to Shaw.
I wish I could help, but me and Betsy are hand to mouth as it is.
God, Lena, I'd never ask. I know you'd give it to us if you had it.
Out of the way! Out! Oi!
We're walking here! Rich bastards.
The rudeness of some folk.
Must be summat, though, eh?
To have all that money and not a worry in the world.
Oh, come on now.
You'd swap a life of gutting fish in my fine company for that?
KNOCK AT DOOR Come in.
I'm sorry to disturb you.
How's that man of yours?
Yeah, he'll back as soon as he's right, Mr Shaw.
I was wondering if you could see it your way to an advance on his wages,
just to tide us over until then?
I'd like to help.
But if I were to dole out charity to one man...
I'd have to give it to them all...
..and then where would I be? I do understand.
But in all these years, he's... he's never been late.
He's not been sick. Not once has he let you down.
You make a compelling case.
But if I were to do you a favour...
..Mrs Hardacre...
..Mary... SHE INHALES SHARPLY
..it would only be fair you do me one in return.
It's an interesting proposition.
All these years working here...
..seeing your face every day...
..I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought about you.
Do tell.
I thought...
that if you were the last man on Earth
and my life depended on it...
I still wouldn't touch you with a barge pole.
HE GRUNTS
You'll never work in these docks again! Good!
CHATTER
Mum!
Mum! Just come on.
What happened?
He said he'd only help us if I went to bed with him, so I've quit.
Where is he?
He's been dealt with. And not a word of this to Sam.
He'd kill Shaw, and the last thing we need is him in jail.
What are you gonna do, though? I don't know. I'll think of summat.
Well, we're coming with you.
We can't all walk out.
You did hear what that slimy bastard tried to do?
What are we supposed to live off?
Oh, you don't think defending our mother's more important?
Someone has to bring money into the house.
Oh, what, and you're the big man now, are you?
Get over here with your family.
I'm staying here. If that's your decision.
HE EXHALES
DOOR OPENS, HE WINCES
Sam.
What are you doing back?
Well, I sent to see Shaw about an advance on your wages.
There's no need to go begging, Mary.
I'll be back to work in a couple of days.
Well, he said no, so I told him where he could stick his job.
What? How could you do something so stupid?
Well, what's done is done.
What about you two? We stand in solidarity.
So you're telling me now that we are four wages down?
How are we supposed to keep a roof over our heads? I'll find us work.
I saw in the shop that Thornton Hall was looking for help.
Oh, come on, Mary. What are you lot gonna do in Thornton Hall?
Be ladies' maids or something. Ha!
OK, love, I know what an arse Shaw can be,
and I can understand how he might have upset you...
I wasn't upset. But don't you think you're overreacting?
Like it or not, we need the work.
We'll go to Thornton Hall tomorrow.
You, make sure you've got a clean dress.
You, make sure you've got a clean face.
We'll leave first thing! DOOR SLAMS
TINNY BARKS
I don't even know what a lady's maid does.
Lady's maid? MA LAUGHS
We'll be lucky if they let us clean out the privy.
Why can't they clean out their own privy?
Because they're bone bloody idle, that's why.
There's no dignity in skivvying for the rich.
Oi! Do you wanna be out on the street?
Now, Liza, just think what an opportunity this could be.
You get to live in a beautiful house, travel,
visit all sorts of grand places...
Yeah, well, you might get to wash the fancy knickers,
but you'll never get to wear them.
Would you look at that.
I think we'll have to use the back door.
Tinny! Back door!
BELL RINGS
TINNY HOWLS
Whatever you are hawking, I assure you, we have no need of it.
But I believe you're looking for help.
And we would like to be considered for the positions.
Is this a joke?
Er, no. We're hard workers and fast learners.
What's that smell?
Is that fish? Is that you?
I wouldn't work for this baggage for love nor money.
We'll do anything. We'll cook, clean...
Please, we really need the work.
What you and that mongrel need to do
is leave immediately.
Do not come to this house again.
Ooh, she were an uppity cow.
Well, you and that bloody dog didn't exactly help matters.
What can I say? Tinny knows a wrong 'un when he sees one.
CHUCKLING Is that it?
THUMP UNDER TABLE Ow!
Some of us are still working, you know.
I've got to keep my strength up.
Maybe there's something we could sell. Perhaps the pony and cart?
Eh, not a chance! I'm gonna be needing them.
I've decided to get back into the old smuggling game.
Absolutely not! Well, we need the money, don't we?
I've worked for others long enough. Time to be my own boss again.
You'd never manage it!
You gave up cos you were too old. You couldn't handle the run.
I'll help her. Oh, so you wanna end up in jail, do you?
Well, no,
but I don't wanna end up working for the likes of Shaw
or that baggage down at Thornton Hall, neither.
I wanna be an independent woman.
Like her grandmother.
CHUCKLING You need to go and see Shaw.
Maybe Ma's onto something here...
..about us being our own bosses.
What if we went into something for ourselves?
Like what? All we know is herring. Exactly.
Exactly! We do know herring.
What if we bought one of those barrels from the auction house
and set up a fried fish stall?
Have you lost your mind?!
She's finally cracked. I'm being serious here!
Do you remember that day we went to the races
and we saw all those food stalls?
And none of them had fried herring.
Yes. I could work it with you.
You've got school. A few days off won't hurt.
Right, we're doing this.
Me, Harry, Liza and Ma. No!
I told you, I'm getting back into the old game. Yeah, I'm with her.
We already owe the landlord
and you wanna spend money on a barrel of herring?
You do realise that if we don't pay the rent, we'll be homeless?
Which is why we've got to try summat. So go and see Shaw!
And in a few days, I'll be working again.
You can't even lift the kettle up.
How are you supposed to manage on the docks?
Well, if you wanna see us out on the streets because of your pride,
on your head be it!
Oh, my pride? What about yours?
So, how does it work? Do we row out to the boat for the contraband?
Well, we'll start on deliveries for Big Jonesy.
I thought you said we'd be our own bosses?
In time, Liza, girl.
Once I'm re-established and you've learnt the ropes,
we'll get our own route up and running.

Hardacre Herring!
There we go. MAN: Two, please.
All right there, fella. Good to see you, Sam.
Is that you back, then, Sam? I hope so.
There's not many that'd did what you did.
I don't know how to thank you.
Well, buy me a pint sometime, Albie. We'll call it quits.
Get them barrels shifted. Can I have a word, Mr Shaw?
Ready to get back to work.
Is your hand mended?
Aye, it's, er... it's getting there.
Show me.
You couldn't even gut herring with the women.
I'll sweep up. Anything.
You're no use to me, Hardacre.
Sam...
SAM CLEARS THROAT
There you go, sir. The last one.
Enjoy. Thank you!

We did it! Right, let's get tidy.
Aye.
Got everything? Your tobacco.
So, you're doing deliveries for Big Jonesy, are you? Aye. I am.
So you'd best watch yourself and behave
if you want to keep getting your gin cheap.
Fill her up.
If you want your gin, you'll turn your piggy eyes to the wall.

Yeah. And don't you forget it!

We were robbed. Are you hurt?
They hardly touched me.
I'd have taken him if there weren't two of them.
What did they look like?
Ginger, greasy, not a brain between them.
The Wilson boys.
That pair should've been drowned at birth.
We made two pound and six, and they took the lot.
Well...
Mine and Liza's.
You're risking me daughter going to prison for a few shilling?!
Is it cold up there on your high horse?
It's better than nothing. This is my fault.
All of it's my fault.
SHE EXHALES SHAKILY It's all right, love.
Harry'll live. And when I find those boys...

I should've just stayed there.
I should've just gone back there, and I should've just... No!

You were right about my hand.
I didn't wanna believe it, but it's never gonna be what it was.
And even if it were... our days at the docks are over
after I upended Shaw into a pile of fish guts.
LAUGHTER
So, after we've paid the rent,
we've enough left to buy two barrels of herring for your stall.
No. No, no, no. It doesn't work.
You made more in one day than I would in a week at the docks.
Yeah, before it was stolen.
Go and ask Shaw if anybody's gonna try that with me around.
I should have supported you, and I'm sorry.
But I'm with you now.
We're all with you now.
Right.
This is the last we have, and not a job between us.
SHE LAUGHS Then we'd better make it work.
Ah, sign's a cracking idea. Good man.
Don't even need a sign. And what would you know?
Nothing.
While I was here helping Mum,
you were busy looking after yourself.
'Ere, if he's gonna be like that, he can stay at home.
He's just embarrassed.
I'll talk to him. You're too soft on him, love.
I thought I were doing the right thing, Dad.
I thought that me staying earning is what you'd want.
I know you did.
But some things are more important than money, Joe.
I let everyone down.
Mum, especially. JOE SNIFFS

What do you mean, "like me"? Well...
Decent, honourable... handsome.
Behave!
So...

Yeah.
It works when we do it together. Mm-hm.
Lots of things work when we do them together, love.
I can't believe I'm gonna say this,
but... we need to decide what we're gonna do with all that money.
Well, you can keep it away from your mother, for a start.
Imagine, we have more money than we actually need.
We need to put it somewhere safe.
HE SIGHS
Mr and Mrs Hardacre? Callum Saunders.
The advertisement says you've got over 50 years' experience.
That's right.
I'm not being funny, lad, but I've got socks older than you.

..passed away recently. Oh.
But I assure you I am well qualified.
Well, we've come all this way.
May as well hear what the boy has to say. Yeah.
Please. Thank you.
So, we're here today because we recently started a business.
Could you be more specific?
We run a fried herring stall, son.
And we've made some money, and we don't know what to do with it.
And where is the money currently being held?
Well, right now, it's in Mary's bag.
Before that, it was on the mantlepiece.
Then...
..the first thing I'd suggest is depositing it in a bank.
Right. So, how does that work? Sorry.
Do... Do we give the money to you and then you give it to them, or...?
If... you decide to go ahead with me...
..I will give you the very best advice I can.
But all monies, all accounts,
would be in your names and your names only.
You're in charge.
COINS THUD, MARY SIGHS
SAUNDERS CHUCKLES

Come on. HARRY EXHALES
HARRY GRUNTS
There we go.
Welcome. What can I get you? Er, two, please.
OK, two. Thank you. REGISTER DINGS
Right. Is anybody else having mussels?
REGISTER DINGS
Thank you. All right. As fast as you can, Joe.
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
REGISTER DINGS
Oh, we did it.
Shares for the Grand Junction Canal. Thank you.
That's 20 shares at ยฃ20 apiece
for the Cape Town Gold Mining Company. Ah.
SAUNDERS LAUGHS Another successful day.
Can I get my wages early?
I'm meeting Lewis and Jack at the pub.
No. That's three nights in a row. You're staying in.
Ah, bad luck, Joe.
OK? Right... Is that it?
Why's your cut bigger than mine? We're supposed to be equal partners.
You're still in training.
I'm the one doing all the hard labour,
shovelling out horse muck, doing all the humping and carrying.
Ha! You should have seen some of the things I had to do back in my day.
Oh, here we go. Tales of the last century.
If you're not woman enough for the work, then feel free to quit.
Well, I'd like to see you manage on your own... old woman!
I were a legend long before you came along.
One day, they'll sing songs about me!
Fine! Then I quit!
Fine!
KNOCK ON DOOR
URGENT KNOCKING All right!
I-Is this the Hardacre home? Who wants to know?
Mr Saunders. Come on in.
I must apologise for my daughter's manners, Mr Saunders.
He was the one banging the door off its hinges.
My sincere apologies.
But... But I am very keen
to talk to you about your investments.
What investments?
We put some of the profits from the business
into stocks of other companies.
Like what?
Like Grand Junction Canal, a bicycle company in Manchester.
Ha! What do you know about canals or bleeding bicycles?
You don't have to "know", as such.
You buy a share in the company,
and if it makes money, it gives you a little bit more back.
Oh, "if"? So, it's gambling? Ha!
And all the times you've judged me!
If I may... It is not gambling!
What's the difference between that and putting a bet on the horses?
You wouldn't understand, would you?
I understand a fool and her money are easily parted! If I may!
There is... no fool at this table.
Quite the opposite.
The South African mine you invested in struck gold.
So I thought you might want to consider buying lodgings
that may be more befitting a family in your new circumstances.
THEY LAUGH You're having us on.
I assure you, I am not.
As things stand this morning, you and your wife
are worth ยฃ249,146 and 16 shillings.
Say that again, son.
ยฃ249,146...
And 16 bloody shillings!
ALL CHEER, SCREAM
So, husband. What's it to be?
Ten bedrooms, a ballroom, stables, or eight bedrooms...
..elegant gardens and the greatest hall in the county?
HE EXHALES Rich-man problems, eh?
Oh, I'll take them over the other kind any day.
What's wrong?
I'm no lord of the manor, Mary.
I'm the son of a drunkard from the back alleys of Belfast.
Aye, and I'm the daughter of a two-bit smuggler.
But look at what we've achieved.
Who's to say what we can and can't be, eh?
I mean, look at Harry.
He's clever... right?
We could get him into a better school,
one that can get into university.
He could be a proper educated gentleman.
So, you really wanna leave the village?
I wanna get Liza away from smuggling.
Somewhere she can meet a nice fellow, settle down.
I don't think settling down is what Liza's after, Mary.
Oh, and Joe. Oh, Joe...
Just get him away from those idiots on the docks.
Oi! I'm an idiot from the docks.
Yeah, I know. You're a very lovely one, too.
But don't you want more for him?
So...
..are we gonna do this?
I like that one. Yeah. No, Ma, it's massive.
So, I suppose you two are gonna stay here,
given you've got a business to run and everything?
Well... I mean, you'll need me
if you're gonna live amongst the likes of them.
The rich are more criminal
than anyone you'd ever meet in my line of work.
Anyway, which one of these asylums are you moving us into?
You'll see.
There's whole gardens of plants where we're going, love.
I like this one. It reminds me of here.
Now, don't you go forgetting about us.
You'll come and see us as soon as we're settled, won't you?
Right. What's this?
No. No, no. I'll be hearing none of your nonsense, Lena.
It's only as much as I figured you'd accept.
It's just to say thank you for always being there for us
and being such a good pal.
Ah, come on, ladies, you're gonna set me off.
DOG GROWLS Bye, Joe.
Don't forget about us now that you're rich.
I'll try not to.
Right. MOUTHING: Bye.
It really is most unusual to serve Champagne outside.
That was requested by the new owners' agent.
Do you know anything about them?
Only that their name is Hardacre
and they will find this house and her staff shipshape
and eager to serve.
Whoa! Whoa, Queenie.
What a dump!
THEY LAUGH
Oh, no. No!
Wait till you meet this one. She's a right piece of work.
Go on, shoo!
Whatever you're hawking, we have no need for it here.
So you said.
Aw, you don't remember me, do you?
I came here looking for work with my mother and my daughter.
You said we smelled of fish.
And I told you never to come to this house again.
You did, didn't you, love?
TINNY BARKS
Someone control that dog!
It's a nice day for it, eh? MRS HENDERSON STAMMERS
Oh, don't mind if I do.
Who on earth do you think you are?!
We're the Hardacres.
But you... you can call me ma'am.
GIGGLING, HARP PLAYS
This is our home now. Has anyone seen Ma?
MA SIGHS
What sort of thing does a gentleman do with his day?
Mainly reading newspapers, talking nonsense with other gentlemen.
Oh, Sam, you've got to give it a proper chance, love.
Maybe you could just help me out here, love?
I wouldn't like to get above my station.
Well, Beesley, do we look the part? Every inch, sir.
Lord and Lady Fitzherbert will be joining us.
Welcome to Hardacre Hall.
