1
00:01:05,111 --> 00:01:08,403
-The grain ship's in!
-It's in! The grain ship's in!

2
00:01:17,396 --> 00:01:20,202
The Princess Charlotte was ambushed
this morning at Truro quay.

3
00:01:20,472 --> 00:01:21,826
Was she carrying corn?

4
00:01:22,376 --> 00:01:23,513
Then, of course she was ambushed.

5
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,394
What else could starving people do?

6
00:01:25,951 --> 00:01:28,615
You have been found guilty
of riot and theft.

7
00:01:29,088 --> 00:01:31,601
Crimes for which
there can be no justification.

8
00:01:31,682 --> 00:01:33,205
The grain stores have been empty
for months.

9
00:01:33,286 --> 00:01:35,844
Failed harvest, worst winter in 30 years.

10
00:01:35,925 --> 00:01:37,665
To summon up a vicious mob,

11
00:01:38,413 --> 00:01:41,293
to seize without compunction
the property of your betters.

12
00:01:41,374 --> 00:01:44,823
This demonstrates a contempt for the law
which cannot go unpunished.

13
00:01:47,194 --> 00:01:49,331
How else are poor folks
to get food in their belly?

14
00:01:49,412 --> 00:01:50,599
No doubt they paid dearly for it.

15
00:01:51,830 --> 00:01:52,990
Twenty dead.

16
00:01:53,071 --> 00:01:54,201
Some shot.

17
00:01:55,244 --> 00:01:57,305
Others trampled underfoot in the panic.

18
00:01:57,590 --> 00:01:59,490
Is the Princess Charlotte
not a Warleggan ship?

19
00:01:59,571 --> 00:02:00,460
She is.

20
00:02:01,318 --> 00:02:02,918
Then those who survived will also pay.

21
00:02:02,999 --> 00:02:05,163
I'm committing you for trial
at the next assizes,

22
00:02:05,244 --> 00:02:08,867
with recommendation that you be sentenced
to 15 years transportation.

23
00:02:08,948 --> 00:02:09,826
It's not fair!

24
00:02:25,230 --> 00:02:26,196
Move along!

25
00:02:47,305 --> 00:02:48,242
Prudie?

26
00:02:51,637 --> 00:02:53,357
Run and make sure all's ready.

27
00:02:53,486 --> 00:02:56,431
I don' like it, maid. Ted'n sense,
ted'n clever, ted'n wise.

28
00:02:56,512 --> 00:02:59,729
It is more than wise to avoid
the faddlings of Dr Choake!

29
00:02:59,810 --> 00:03:01,820
Without Dwight, Ross won't hear of me
birthing alone,

30
00:03:01,901 --> 00:03:04,141
but what he don't know can't hurt him!

31
00:03:09,907 --> 00:03:10,854
Run!

32
00:03:14,351 --> 00:03:18,388
Do George Warleggan not see the connection
between failed harvests and folk rioting?

33
00:03:18,602 --> 00:03:20,583
And his decision to hoard grain?

34
00:03:20,988 --> 00:03:21,912
Clearly not.

35
00:03:23,422 --> 00:03:24,722
I give you Wheal Leisure.

36
00:03:25,592 --> 00:03:28,192
Once a Poldark mine,
built on Poldark land.

37
00:03:29,782 --> 00:03:32,615
Begun with high hopes
and the naive aim of giving work,

38
00:03:32,696 --> 00:03:34,900
and decent living conditions
to local men and women.

39
00:03:35,156 --> 00:03:37,516
Now in the hands of a man
without conscience.

40
00:03:37,597 --> 00:03:40,236
For whom workers are chaff
and profit is God!

41
00:03:40,317 --> 00:03:41,805
It was a noble aim, Ross.

42
00:03:41,886 --> 00:03:43,293
It was a worthy enterprise.

43
00:03:43,901 --> 00:03:45,381
I wonder if he thinks so.

44
00:03:46,765 --> 00:03:47,841
What did he die of?

45
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:49,421
Starvation?

46
00:03:49,853 --> 00:03:50,827
Pneumonia.

47
00:03:52,581 --> 00:03:56,238
I'm told he'd been fading for weeks,
but declined to stay home and rest.

48
00:03:57,677 --> 00:03:58,911
He has only himself to blame.

49
00:04:00,195 --> 00:04:01,315
It would appear so.

50
00:04:03,436 --> 00:04:06,043
This was a good mine
before you got your hands on her, George.

51
00:04:06,124 --> 00:04:08,736
My dear Ross, this was only ever
an average mine.

52
00:04:10,027 --> 00:04:11,503
Oh, the famous red copper?

53
00:04:12,067 --> 00:04:14,712
The precious commodity
which made her such a rarity?

54
00:04:14,893 --> 00:04:16,013
It's finished.

55
00:04:17,589 --> 00:04:18,801
Oh, there are other lodes.

56
00:04:19,602 --> 00:04:22,187
Far less rich, far less profitable.

57
00:04:23,432 --> 00:04:26,270
Yet I see why you're so attached to her.

58
00:04:27,216 --> 00:04:28,602
You're kindred spirits.

59
00:04:29,437 --> 00:04:33,357
Both full of noise,
but ultimately lacking in substance.

60
00:04:35,917 --> 00:04:38,746
Go on, Ross, tell me to get off your land.
Oh, wait! You can't.

61
00:04:39,413 --> 00:04:42,413
Because the land we're standing on
belongs to the mine.

62
00:04:42,494 --> 00:04:44,814
And the mine belongs to me.

63
00:04:46,761 --> 00:04:48,554
How do you sleep at night, George?

64
00:04:50,429 --> 00:04:52,385
Perhaps you should ask Elizabeth.

65
00:04:54,301 --> 00:04:55,960
Ross, shall we?

66
00:05:23,341 --> 00:05:24,318
Demelza?

67
00:05:32,602 --> 00:05:33,621
Demelza?

68
00:05:36,901 --> 00:05:40,074
Captain Ross, Mistress Demelza say,
can you fetch her up a dish of soup?

69
00:05:40,690 --> 00:05:41,790
Surely that's your...

70
00:05:47,422 --> 00:05:49,114
Thank you kindly, my man.

71
00:05:49,842 --> 00:05:51,474
Just set it down over there.

72
00:05:54,119 --> 00:05:55,206
Are you unwell?

73
00:05:55,652 --> 00:05:56,575
Never better.

74
00:05:57,946 --> 00:05:59,971
Can I do anything else for your Ladyship?

75
00:06:00,756 --> 00:06:02,799
Well, you could say good day
to your daughter.

76
00:06:10,384 --> 00:06:11,950
Miss Clowance Poldark.

77
00:06:26,157 --> 00:06:27,184
Where was Dr Choake?

78
00:06:27,265 --> 00:06:29,546
Oh, it was all over
before we could send for him.

79
00:06:46,907 --> 00:06:48,043
Why is he so fretful?

80
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:50,156
Dr Choake says it's wilfulness.

81
00:06:51,059 --> 00:06:52,929
He thinks we should put our foot down.

82
00:06:53,656 --> 00:06:55,992
Martha, see he's kept warm and quiet.

83
00:06:56,242 --> 00:06:57,458
Yes, ma'am.

84
00:07:03,358 --> 00:07:05,366
I'm going to Lady Randolph's for tea.

85
00:07:06,435 --> 00:07:07,776
Do you dine at home this evening?

86
00:07:07,861 --> 00:07:09,106
At the Trevelyans.

87
00:07:09,187 --> 00:07:11,070
And then to the Carricks for cards.

88
00:07:12,414 --> 00:07:14,134
Invitations come thick and fast.

89
00:07:15,485 --> 00:07:17,685
Though not from the Godolphins.

90
00:07:17,766 --> 00:07:20,325
Despite your letting young Anthony
off the hook in court.

91
00:07:20,406 --> 00:07:22,631
These ancient families
require persistence.

92
00:07:23,388 --> 00:07:26,281
But Christmas is coming,
the perfect excuse for a ball.

93
00:07:26,362 --> 00:07:27,955
To which the Godolphins will be invited.

94
00:07:28,036 --> 00:07:29,150
But will they accept?

95
00:07:33,832 --> 00:07:34,673
I must go.

96
00:07:34,754 --> 00:07:37,223
I'm expected at
a Wheal Leisure shareholders' meeting.

97
00:07:37,326 --> 00:07:40,966
Sadly, without the presence
of Ross Poldark to amuse me.

98
00:07:42,620 --> 00:07:45,296
How I miss the days
when I had him at my mercy.

99
00:08:08,845 --> 00:08:11,743
Drake! You came! What's in your basket?

100
00:08:12,894 --> 00:08:15,200
-Toads!
-You said your aunt loved a toad.

101
00:08:20,505 --> 00:08:22,927
I've a gift for you, too, Miss Morwenna.

102
00:08:24,956 --> 00:08:26,542
Winter primroses!

103
00:08:27,407 --> 00:08:28,527
Where did you find them?

104
00:08:28,917 --> 00:08:30,083
That's for me to know.

105
00:08:30,545 --> 00:08:33,666
But if you ever wish for more,
I'll comb the earth in search of them.

106
00:08:35,779 --> 00:08:36,638
Come on.

107
00:08:38,085 --> 00:08:41,426
Aunt Agatha, Drake's here with a surprise!

108
00:08:45,294 --> 00:08:46,740
Uncle George hates toads.

109
00:08:47,026 --> 00:08:48,716
He had them all cleared from our pond.

110
00:08:49,526 --> 00:08:51,206
Imagine if they ever came back!

111
00:08:52,247 --> 00:08:53,425
Geoffrey Charles,

112
00:08:54,235 --> 00:08:56,180
I'm not sure
your Uncle George would approve.

113
00:08:56,261 --> 00:08:57,237
Of the toad?

114
00:08:57,586 --> 00:08:58,701
Of our guest.

115
00:09:00,984 --> 00:09:03,624
Aunt Agatha won't tell him,
will you, Aunt?

116
00:09:06,004 --> 00:09:10,524
Did you know Geoffrey Charles's friend
is related to my nephew?

117
00:09:13,853 --> 00:09:14,973
Of course you do.

118
00:09:15,522 --> 00:09:19,513
For Geoffrey Charles's friend
tells you a great deal.

119
00:09:22,509 --> 00:09:28,989
Tell my nephew his aunt is
much aggrieved at his neglect!

120
00:09:33,909 --> 00:09:34,939
I have a letter.

121
00:09:35,446 --> 00:09:38,315
From our celebrated member of parliament,
Unwin Trevaunance!

122
00:09:38,396 --> 00:09:39,488
Whom you jilted.

123
00:09:39,569 --> 00:09:42,223
I may have encouraged him to think
he had another chance.

124
00:09:42,304 --> 00:09:45,357
-In return for?
-Information on a certain naval officer.

125
00:09:45,438 --> 00:09:47,324
-And?
-According to this letter,

126
00:09:47,405 --> 00:09:49,386
he's brought his influence
to bear at the Admiralty,

127
00:09:49,467 --> 00:09:51,064
and they have everything in hand.

128
00:09:52,386 --> 00:09:54,406
-Have they?
-Our people are speaking to their people,

129
00:09:54,487 --> 00:09:56,046
and shortly, all the officers
will be released.

130
00:09:56,127 --> 00:09:58,447
-In time for Christmas?
-Or shortly after.

131
00:09:58,772 --> 00:10:00,820
So Unwin has his uses, after all.

132
00:10:44,444 --> 00:10:45,597
A letter for you, Miss.

133
00:10:46,186 --> 00:10:47,244
Thank you.

134
00:10:57,346 --> 00:10:59,897
Geoffrey Charles and I are to go
to Truro for Christmas.

135
00:10:59,978 --> 00:11:01,290
To Uncle George's?

136
00:11:01,891 --> 00:11:03,550
The carriage will come for us on Saturday.

137
00:11:05,245 --> 00:11:06,765
How long will you be gone?

138
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:08,642
A few weeks?

139
00:11:10,099 --> 00:11:11,207
Maybe more.

140
00:11:15,128 --> 00:11:18,352
I'd come to bid you goodbye,
but I must be at the christening.

141
00:11:19,221 --> 00:11:21,525
'Tis my sister's child, Clowance.

142
00:11:22,448 --> 00:11:24,308
Your cousin, Master Geoffrey.

143
00:11:24,389 --> 00:11:27,202
If we're away for Christmas,
I must give you your present now.

144
00:11:27,283 --> 00:11:30,308
-Oh, there's no need.
-Oh, there is. Wait there.

145
00:11:38,379 --> 00:11:41,237
-I've nothing to give you.
-You gave me this.

146
00:11:41,682 --> 00:11:43,853
It's the most precious gift
I've ever received.

147
00:11:44,682 --> 00:11:45,952
You never take it off.

148
00:11:47,541 --> 00:11:48,561
I never will.

149
00:12:02,333 --> 00:12:03,434
Here you are, Drake.

150
00:12:03,732 --> 00:12:05,072
So you can write to me when I'm away.

151
00:12:06,296 --> 00:12:08,120
Thank you, Master Geoffrey.

152
00:12:08,525 --> 00:12:09,845
Your cheeks are flushed, Wenna.

153
00:12:10,624 --> 00:12:11,747
Have you a fever?

154
00:12:24,735 --> 00:12:26,855
Be that the light of God in your eyes?

155
00:12:27,174 --> 00:12:30,534
Maybe not entire,
but it is sacred to me nonetheless.

156
00:12:30,615 --> 00:12:32,975
But is she worth
the risk of your mortal soul?

157
00:12:35,182 --> 00:12:36,218
Reckon so.

158
00:12:49,806 --> 00:12:50,966
Is that wise?

159
00:12:51,047 --> 00:12:52,602
I have neglected her of late.

160
00:12:53,388 --> 00:12:56,174
You swore you'd keep your distance
from all things Trenwith.

161
00:12:56,542 --> 00:12:58,742
Agatha is not all things Trenwith.

162
00:13:00,435 --> 00:13:02,738
She's a Poldark, and my aunt.

163
00:13:03,976 --> 00:13:05,738
George has brought Leisure to its knees,

164
00:13:05,819 --> 00:13:07,843
and I'll be damned
if he'll do the same to Agatha.

165
00:13:09,612 --> 00:13:11,724
So why shouldn't she come
to my daughter's christening?

166
00:14:09,963 --> 00:14:13,393
I've sent the carriage for Morwenna
and Geoffrey Charles, 6 as you requested.

167
00:14:18,483 --> 00:14:20,815
-Geoffrey Charles, wait!
-You needn't come!

168
00:14:21,301 --> 00:14:22,708
I don't think either of us should.

169
00:14:22,789 --> 00:14:24,869
I'm going, Wenna. No one needs to know.

170
00:14:27,140 --> 00:14:30,559
We thank you, Almighty God,
4for the gift of water.

171
00:14:31,813 --> 00:14:35,062
Over it, the Holy Spirit moved
in the beginning of creation.

172
00:14:35,532 --> 00:14:37,100
My husband is here in spirit.

173
00:14:37,590 --> 00:14:39,230
And as godfather in absentia.

174
00:14:40,151 --> 00:14:42,723
In these times of dire poverty
and starvation,

175
00:14:44,446 --> 00:14:46,966
remind us how you led
the children of Israel,

176
00:14:48,109 --> 00:14:49,809
out of their bondage in Egypt,

177
00:14:51,629 --> 00:14:52,989
into the land of plenty.

178
00:14:54,995 --> 00:14:57,657
How your son, Jesus,
received the baptism of John,

179
00:14:57,738 --> 00:15:00,124
and was anointed by the Holy Spirit
as the Messiah.

180
00:15:01,157 --> 00:15:04,606
Christ did lead us through the toils
and tribulations of this earth,

181
00:15:05,365 --> 00:15:09,245
from the bondage of suffering
into everlasting life.

182
00:15:10,383 --> 00:15:13,103
-I hope you'll forgive our intrusion.
-It's no intrusion.

183
00:15:13,627 --> 00:15:15,360
Will you join our celebrations at Nampara?

184
00:15:15,781 --> 00:15:17,573
Oh. Well...

185
00:15:17,654 --> 00:15:19,961
-Oh, Wenna, let's!
-I don't think we can.

186
00:15:20,524 --> 00:15:21,811
We're leaving for Truro.

187
00:15:21,979 --> 00:15:23,532
Indeed, we're already late.

188
00:15:23,613 --> 00:15:25,182
But maybe just for half an hour?

189
00:15:29,206 --> 00:15:30,446
I fear we cannot.

190
00:15:31,472 --> 00:15:33,147
Much as I would like to.

191
00:15:33,749 --> 00:15:36,350
-You'll spend Christmas in Truro?
-More's the pity!

192
00:15:36,706 --> 00:15:38,549
Uncle George is no St Nicholas!

193
00:15:38,853 --> 00:15:40,803
And poor Aunt Agatha
will be left all alone.

194
00:15:40,884 --> 00:15:41,772
Indeed.

195
00:15:41,853 --> 00:15:45,043
-My brother is a gentle soul.
-He has a kind of goodness.

196
00:15:45,357 --> 00:15:46,633
The like of which, I've never known.

197
00:15:47,621 --> 00:15:49,162
And were he of your station,

198
00:15:49,790 --> 00:15:51,390
I'd wish for nothing more.

199
00:15:52,910 --> 00:15:54,230
But he's far beneath it.

200
00:15:55,216 --> 00:15:57,056
Cannot aspire to it.

201
00:15:58,215 --> 00:15:59,855
You know it.

202
00:16:04,962 --> 00:16:06,562
I know it.

203
00:16:09,042 --> 00:16:10,882
'Tis well you're going away.

204
00:16:11,962 --> 00:16:13,322
It will break the bond.

205
00:16:13,402 --> 00:16:15,082
So I tell myself.

206
00:16:18,002 --> 00:16:19,882
Goodbye, Morwenna.

207
00:16:21,242 --> 00:16:24,402
Come, Geoffrey Charles, we're very late.

208
00:16:25,922 --> 00:16:28,402
My hat! I left it on the seat.

209
00:16:28,482 --> 00:16:29,922
I'll go.

210
00:16:41,482 --> 00:16:43,482
-I'll come and visit.
-No.

211
00:16:46,522 --> 00:16:48,042
This must stop.

212
00:16:51,002 --> 00:16:52,722
Can you stop?

213
00:16:54,082 --> 00:16:55,362
Yes.

214
00:17:12,962 --> 00:17:15,002
-Cheery little thing.
-Sometimes.

215
00:17:15,082 --> 00:17:17,562
-How has she been?
-Just fine.

216
00:17:20,762 --> 00:17:23,322
Did you hear about the goings in St Ann's?

217
00:17:23,402 --> 00:17:26,602
Another corn ship raided,
two young tackers shot.

218
00:17:26,682 --> 00:17:30,082
Unwin assures me it's only a matter of
time before Dr Enys will be released.

219
00:17:30,162 --> 00:17:33,322
And in the meantime, he receives
the best possible treatment.

220
00:17:51,162 --> 00:17:54,018
Did I not order you to rest,
Lieutenant Armitage?

221
00:17:54,825 --> 00:17:56,221
And who would order you to rest?

222
00:17:57,630 --> 00:17:59,445
If any dared, I wouldn't heed them.

223
00:17:59,975 --> 00:18:03,775
Then may I watch and try
and learn something useful?

224
00:18:21,866 --> 00:18:23,411
'Tis good news of Dwight.

225
00:18:23,774 --> 00:18:24,962
If it's true.

226
00:18:25,762 --> 00:18:27,737
You forget I've been
a prisoner of war myself.

227
00:18:27,987 --> 00:18:30,719
But Dwight's a doctor
will he not get special privileges?

228
00:18:31,482 --> 00:18:32,627
Let's hope so.

229
00:18:34,372 --> 00:18:37,186
I intend to open my house
to all emigre nobles,

230
00:18:37,267 --> 00:18:38,957
fleeing that wicked regime.

231
00:18:39,547 --> 00:18:40,947
It's the least I can do.

232
00:18:42,542 --> 00:18:44,210
She hates to feel useless.

233
00:18:45,110 --> 00:18:46,168
I know the feeling.

234
00:19:09,593 --> 00:19:10,632
What is it?

235
00:19:11,377 --> 00:19:12,558
Do you not like my gown?

236
00:19:14,610 --> 00:19:15,782
Your gown is exquisite.

237
00:19:17,792 --> 00:19:20,992
But I cannot permit you to dance tonight.

238
00:19:23,347 --> 00:19:25,547
With anyone but I.

239
00:19:39,842 --> 00:19:41,741
Geoffrey Charles has some spirit.

240
00:19:42,429 --> 00:19:44,600
I'm impressed he disobeyed his governess.

241
00:19:46,030 --> 00:19:49,338
Which reminds me,
Aunt Agatha never replied.

242
00:19:49,850 --> 00:19:51,317
Perhaps she never received the note.

243
00:19:51,534 --> 00:19:52,866
There's only one thing for it.

244
00:19:53,277 --> 00:19:54,449
I shall go and fetch her myself.

245
00:19:54,530 --> 00:19:56,720
They'll never admit you.
They'll likely shoot you!

246
00:19:57,293 --> 00:19:58,446
Not if I'm with him.

247
00:20:01,965 --> 00:20:03,030
We shan't be long.

248
00:20:11,958 --> 00:20:12,819
Mama!

249
00:20:15,379 --> 00:20:17,868
You're very late. Go up and change
before the guests arrive.

250
00:20:18,133 --> 00:20:19,959
-Guests?
-For the ball.

251
00:20:20,270 --> 00:20:21,121
Oh. But...

252
00:20:21,202 --> 00:20:23,164
I've ordered a new dress for you.
Make haste.

253
00:20:38,019 --> 00:20:39,154
Begging your pardon, sir.

254
00:20:39,235 --> 00:20:41,195
Captain Poldark is here to visit his aunt.

255
00:20:41,962 --> 00:20:44,189
A glass of canary and a blazing fire
if you please.

256
00:20:45,244 --> 00:20:47,484
Of course I never had your invitation!

257
00:20:47,565 --> 00:20:51,020
Do you think I'd miss a chance
to drink port and eat heavy cake?

258
00:20:51,153 --> 00:20:52,673
This room is like ice.

259
00:20:52,754 --> 00:20:55,001
The maids don't make me a fire.

260
00:20:55,331 --> 00:20:56,997
So that's George's plan.

261
00:20:57,762 --> 00:20:59,908
To kill you with cold and infection.

262
00:21:01,301 --> 00:21:02,821
Come and live with me at Nampara.

263
00:21:03,133 --> 00:21:06,014
And lose the chance to torment him?

264
00:21:07,124 --> 00:21:09,811
I was born in this house,
I'll die in this house!

265
00:21:10,635 --> 00:21:13,458
If it costs me cake, a few hot coals...

266
00:21:13,539 --> 00:21:15,315
What must Geoffrey Charles think,

267
00:21:15,870 --> 00:21:18,510
seeing that gamecock strut about his home?

268
00:21:19,082 --> 00:21:20,736
And Valentine.

269
00:21:24,242 --> 00:21:27,085
I feel sorry for any child
having that as a father.

270
00:21:50,582 --> 00:21:54,257
No Godolphins, no Boscowans,
and no Bassets.

271
00:21:54,338 --> 00:21:56,839
It's snowing.
They'll be anxious about the journey home.

272
00:21:58,812 --> 00:22:00,210
Very eye-catching!

273
00:22:00,854 --> 00:22:01,843
Always was.

274
00:22:02,020 --> 00:22:04,009
No wonder Francis never let her
out of his sight.

275
00:22:04,517 --> 00:22:05,851
I meant the cousin.

276
00:22:06,388 --> 00:22:07,868
Morwenna, I'm bored!

277
00:22:08,741 --> 00:22:10,701
I wish we were at Uncle Ross's party.

278
00:22:11,009 --> 00:22:13,021
We should not have even been
at the christening.

279
00:22:13,397 --> 00:22:15,519
I'm sorry I allowed myself
to be persuaded.

280
00:22:15,735 --> 00:22:19,182
I'm not, I'd like to know
my cousin Clowance better.

281
00:22:20,358 --> 00:22:22,320
I'd wager she's less dull than Valentine

282
00:22:26,909 --> 00:22:28,840
First thing tomorrow,
I'll write to Harrow.

283
00:22:28,921 --> 00:22:30,957
I want that brat out of my house.

284
00:22:38,922 --> 00:22:40,735
-How was she?
-As expected.

285
00:22:42,237 --> 00:22:45,142
Your task is to look after
my aunt, is it not?

286
00:22:45,239 --> 00:22:46,098
Aye, sir.

287
00:22:46,179 --> 00:22:47,604
Then you've failed miserably.

288
00:22:48,282 --> 00:22:50,295
I'll be making regular visits from now on.

289
00:22:50,617 --> 00:22:54,247
And if you fail to ensure her comfort,
I'll have you dismissed.

290
00:23:02,355 --> 00:23:04,143
Did Morwenna enjoy the christening?

291
00:23:04,769 --> 00:23:05,769
Christening?

292
00:23:06,202 --> 00:23:07,510
Oh, did she neglect to mention?

293
00:23:07,591 --> 00:23:09,796
Her and Geoffrey Charles
were at Sawle Church today,

294
00:23:10,196 --> 00:23:12,956
where the latest Poldark
brat was baptised.

295
00:23:14,061 --> 00:23:16,061
Clowance, I believe they named her.

296
00:23:17,645 --> 00:23:19,365
Ross and Demelza have a daughter?

297
00:23:20,795 --> 00:23:22,815
Let's hope they're less careless
with this one.

298
00:23:23,450 --> 00:23:24,965
But how could Geoffrey Charles...?

299
00:23:27,346 --> 00:23:28,630
He cannot be blamed.

300
00:23:28,711 --> 00:23:30,038
It must be Morwenna who...

301
00:23:30,348 --> 00:23:33,190
She must be reprimanded, punished.

302
00:23:33,644 --> 00:23:34,748
Oh, she will be.

303
00:23:40,146 --> 00:23:41,682
My dear Mr Whitworth!

304
00:23:45,869 --> 00:23:48,314
I was so sorry to hear
of your wife's death.

305
00:23:48,395 --> 00:23:50,106
How are your two little girls?

306
00:23:50,187 --> 00:23:51,814
As well as can be expected, ma'am.

307
00:23:52,269 --> 00:23:53,642
It's only been a week.

308
00:23:53,939 --> 00:23:57,037
Only your kind invitation could have
forced me to leave the house today.

309
00:23:58,042 --> 00:23:59,859
Life must go on.

310
00:24:00,274 --> 00:24:02,362
My very thought
when I chose this waistcoat.

311
00:24:11,779 --> 00:24:13,288
Friends of yours, then, Captain?

312
00:24:13,829 --> 00:24:16,416
Caught robbing another
Warleggan grain ship.

313
00:24:16,835 --> 00:24:19,195
Look pretty with their necks in a noose.

314
00:24:21,572 --> 00:24:22,812
What can I say?

315
00:24:23,558 --> 00:24:25,941
He's within his rights
to protect Warleggan property.

316
00:24:27,255 --> 00:24:30,335
Is George not aware the harvest failed,
no corn to be had anywhere?

317
00:24:30,416 --> 00:24:31,896
Of course he's aware.

318
00:24:32,202 --> 00:24:35,442
Which is why he imports, hoards,
and sells to the highest bidder.

319
00:24:35,949 --> 00:24:39,402
Riot and theft will not help these people,
so, what will?

320
00:24:41,669 --> 00:24:43,309
Say nothing of her misdemeanour.

321
00:24:43,532 --> 00:24:45,715
-But surely...
-There may be a better solution.

322
00:24:46,371 --> 00:24:47,976
She's not an ill-looking girl.

323
00:24:48,205 --> 00:24:50,405
She must surely hope to be more
than just a governess.

324
00:24:50,619 --> 00:24:51,895
Eventually, yes, but...

325
00:24:51,976 --> 00:24:54,761
When Geoffrey Charles goes to school,
what does the future hold for her?

326
00:24:55,571 --> 00:24:57,712
I know it would please you
to have her well-matched.

327
00:24:58,372 --> 00:25:02,809
And it could be advantageous to us,
depending on the candidate.

328
00:25:04,614 --> 00:25:06,947
A highly-respected young man.

329
00:25:08,989 --> 00:25:11,497
And his mother is a Godolphin.

330
00:25:18,845 --> 00:25:20,337
My dear, have you been introduced?

331
00:25:20,750 --> 00:25:22,310
Our cousin, Miss Chynoweth.

332
00:25:22,931 --> 00:25:24,990
The Reverend Osborne Whitworth.

333
00:25:27,071 --> 00:25:29,801
Shall we assay the gavotte,
Miss Chynoweth?

334
00:25:31,642 --> 00:25:34,791
I hope you'll excuse me, sir,
I'm not fond of dancing.

335
00:25:35,591 --> 00:25:39,453
That can only be because your partners
thus far have lacked expertise.

336
00:25:40,501 --> 00:25:43,186
Allow a master to initiate you
in the pleasures.

337
00:26:04,350 --> 00:26:07,868
<i>God bless the master of this house</i>

338
00:26:07,949 --> 00:26:10,549
<i>The mistress, also</i>

339
00:26:10,717 --> 00:26:16,085
<i>And all the little children
Aound the table go</i>

340
00:26:16,202 --> 00:26:18,907
<i>And all your kin and kinsmen</i>

341
00:26:18,988 --> 00:26:21,315
<i>That dwell both far and near</i>

342
00:26:21,565 --> 00:26:24,125
<i>We wish a Merry Christmas</i>

343
00:26:24,206 --> 00:26:26,526
<i>And Happy New Year</i>

344
00:26:27,732 --> 00:26:29,052
That looks good, doesn't it?

345
00:26:29,362 --> 00:26:31,155
How very blessed we are.

346
00:26:31,390 --> 00:26:33,620
I wonder how Dwight
will keep Christmas this year?

347
00:26:52,415 --> 00:26:53,826
Easy now, Williams.

348
00:26:58,950 --> 00:27:00,450
Merry Christmas, sweetheart.

349
00:27:01,657 --> 00:27:03,257
God's grace be with you.

350
00:27:04,162 --> 00:27:05,239
Move it!

351
00:27:09,242 --> 00:27:10,268
Here.

352
00:27:10,660 --> 00:27:13,100
Starvation breeds desperate men.

353
00:27:13,442 --> 00:27:15,048
I never knew it this bad.

354
00:27:15,557 --> 00:27:17,783
It's like they could tear us
to pieces and eat us alive!

355
00:27:17,864 --> 00:27:19,704
Humanity has brought this on itself.

356
00:27:20,442 --> 00:27:22,501
Have sinned and must pay the price.

357
00:27:22,582 --> 00:27:23,707
What sin?

358
00:27:25,081 --> 00:27:28,649
Let all examine their consciences
to check they are without blemish.

359
00:27:28,942 --> 00:27:29,858
Mine is.

360
00:27:31,406 --> 00:27:33,785
On account of I don't consider love
to be a sin.

361
00:27:40,983 --> 00:27:42,329
Oh, Ross!

362
00:27:42,413 --> 00:27:44,177
What can be done for these people?

363
00:27:45,302 --> 00:27:46,806
So that's my proposal.

364
00:27:47,408 --> 00:27:49,528
We cannot feed all of Cornwall,

365
00:27:49,854 --> 00:27:51,947
so we must keep this plan to ourselves.

366
00:27:52,922 --> 00:27:54,246
I admit it's risky.

367
00:27:54,922 --> 00:27:56,902
It requires each and every one of us
to play our part,

368
00:27:56,983 --> 00:27:58,721
and it may fall at the first hurdle.

369
00:27:58,802 --> 00:28:00,882
-But unless we do something...
-I'm with you.

370
00:28:01,762 --> 00:28:02,686
We all are.

371
00:28:03,602 --> 00:28:04,616
Where do we start?

372
00:28:05,773 --> 00:28:06,864
With an old friend.

373
00:28:08,454 --> 00:28:10,649
May an old friend speak plainly?

374
00:28:11,189 --> 00:28:12,643
You're out of your mind!

375
00:28:14,474 --> 00:28:15,565
That's promising!

376
00:28:15,646 --> 00:28:19,757
Even if supplies were easier to come by,
which in times of war, they're not,

377
00:28:20,139 --> 00:28:23,419
even if we could get them
across the Channel unscathed

378
00:28:23,500 --> 00:28:27,968
and land them unseen,
with no guarantee of a delivery day,

379
00:28:28,655 --> 00:28:30,631
-the cost would be...
-Prohibitive?

380
00:28:31,775 --> 00:28:32,912
I realise that.

381
00:28:33,655 --> 00:28:35,455
But money will be found.

382
00:28:37,984 --> 00:28:40,367
-Are you sure?
-You have my word.

383
00:28:50,311 --> 00:28:51,191
Enys?

384
00:28:54,950 --> 00:28:55,829
Enys?

385
00:28:58,980 --> 00:29:00,228
I'm here, Williams.

386
00:29:02,391 --> 00:29:03,991
What is it, my friend?

387
00:29:05,234 --> 00:29:09,078
Water, please. Water.

388
00:29:53,486 --> 00:29:54,797
This will do very well.

389
00:29:55,213 --> 00:29:58,949
Yet it sit not easy with I that
a house of God be used as a cache.

390
00:29:59,030 --> 00:30:01,679
Nevertheless, it will be so used.

391
00:30:02,675 --> 00:30:04,635
It's the last place anyone will look.

392
00:30:06,347 --> 00:30:08,223
I like not your way of doing, brother.

393
00:30:10,253 --> 00:30:11,594
Get used to it, brother.

394
00:30:17,653 --> 00:30:20,439
What would Dwight make of us now?
Do we look the part?

395
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:21,573
Of highwaymen?

396
00:30:22,057 --> 00:30:24,979
Is it not our mission to part as many men
from their guineas as possible?

397
00:30:30,933 --> 00:30:32,133
Good day to you, sir!

398
00:30:32,213 --> 00:30:34,588
A fine morning to address
the business of matrimony.

399
00:30:49,132 --> 00:30:51,829
As to the matter of a settlement
for Miss Chynoweth,

400
00:30:51,910 --> 00:30:53,653
I've been thinking of 2000 pounds.

401
00:30:56,379 --> 00:31:00,444
My dear sir, you'll pardon me, but a man
in my position must look the part,

402
00:31:00,525 --> 00:31:02,157
dress the part,

403
00:31:02,519 --> 00:31:06,170
carry himself in such a way
as to inspire awe.

404
00:31:06,252 --> 00:31:07,602
-Must he?
-Besides which,

405
00:31:07,683 --> 00:31:09,470
with debts of over 1000 pounds,

406
00:31:09,551 --> 00:31:15,835
I could not in all countenance accept
a penny less than 6000 guineas.

407
00:31:16,264 --> 00:31:18,877
Put simply, Sir John, our mission is this,

408
00:31:18,958 --> 00:31:21,395
to raise enough funds
to help the poor hereabouts...

409
00:31:21,476 --> 00:31:23,717
...survive the worst winter
in living memory.

410
00:31:23,798 --> 00:31:25,525
My mother is a Godolphin.

411
00:31:25,606 --> 00:31:27,898
And Morwenna is a Chynoweth.

412
00:31:27,979 --> 00:31:29,779
One of the oldest families in the county.

413
00:31:29,860 --> 00:31:30,943
Daughter of a dean.

414
00:31:31,024 --> 00:31:35,326
Devout, healthy,
particularly fond of motherless children.

415
00:31:35,585 --> 00:31:40,193
But if you feel there is another
pretty young lady with 2000 pounds,

416
00:31:40,274 --> 00:31:43,742
willing to yoke herself
to a penniless clergyman,

417
00:31:43,823 --> 00:31:46,482
you are, of course,
at liberty to seek her out.

418
00:31:46,563 --> 00:31:49,781
Our own households have begun
by pledging 50 guineas apiece.

419
00:31:49,862 --> 00:31:52,596
I've also made a large donation
in my late uncle's name.

420
00:31:52,677 --> 00:31:55,705
And we do feel sure you'll not be wanting
in your own generosity.

421
00:32:18,471 --> 00:32:21,762
Far be it from we, Sir Philip,
to 4tell a body how much he should pledge,

422
00:32:21,843 --> 00:32:26,336
but perhaps we could mention
that Sir John has just offered 20 guineas.

423
00:32:32,255 --> 00:32:33,940
My dear, you do him wrong.

424
00:32:34,391 --> 00:32:35,900
I believed he offered 25.

425
00:32:36,811 --> 00:32:40,971
I could be prevailed upon
to accept 4000 pounds.

426
00:32:41,052 --> 00:32:44,372
In times of economic hardship,
it would be irresponsible of us...

427
00:32:44,453 --> 00:32:47,439
...to increase the offer
beyond 2000 pounds.

428
00:32:47,527 --> 00:32:48,982
As I was saying to Miss Penvenen,

429
00:32:49,063 --> 00:32:51,598
you'll not find a
kindlier man than Sir Hugh.

430
00:32:51,679 --> 00:32:53,547
He is generosity itself!

431
00:32:53,628 --> 00:32:55,822
It would be impossible to exist
on so paltry a sum!

432
00:32:55,911 --> 00:33:01,764
Doubtless God will then guide your steps
towards some amiable young heiress.

433
00:33:06,584 --> 00:33:08,359
Shall I put you down for 30 guineas?

434
00:33:21,099 --> 00:33:24,948
Taking into consideration
the many blessings I would gain...

435
00:33:25,029 --> 00:33:28,770
...in the actual personage
of Miss Chynoweth,

436
00:33:29,208 --> 00:33:33,203
I believe I'd be willing to accept
3500 pounds.

437
00:33:33,284 --> 00:33:35,959
Good God, man, do you imagine
I have money to burn?

438
00:33:53,107 --> 00:33:54,454
Finally, a deal!

439
00:33:55,290 --> 00:33:57,439
To be related to the Godolphins,
I was willing to go higher,

440
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,967
but the idiot settled for 3000 pounds.

441
00:34:01,819 --> 00:34:03,774
Now all that remains is for you
to inform the bride.

442
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,383
But surely, as you are the one
who has made all the arrangements...

443
00:34:08,464 --> 00:34:13,208
I would not, for the world,
deprive you of this happy task, my dear.

444
00:34:20,059 --> 00:34:21,797
-May I help you?
-<i>Morwenna?</i>

445
00:34:42,764 --> 00:34:43,676
Marry...

446
00:34:45,108 --> 00:34:46,066
...Mr Whitworth?

447
00:34:46,147 --> 00:34:49,132
Well, I need hardly enumerate
the advantages of the match.

448
00:34:50,037 --> 00:34:52,125
The excellent prospects of the groom.

449
00:34:52,371 --> 00:34:56,378
Your immediate transformation
from governess to lady of the town.

450
00:34:56,890 --> 00:35:00,727
The help it will be to your widowed
mother and younger sisters.

451
00:35:00,808 --> 00:35:03,755
Mr Warleggan's generosity
in providing the settlement.

452
00:35:05,429 --> 00:35:07,596
Do our kind thoughts displease you?

453
00:35:08,709 --> 00:35:10,696
Does Mr Whitworth's love
mean nothing at all?

454
00:35:10,777 --> 00:35:12,377
I do not know Mr Whitworth!

455
00:35:13,875 --> 00:35:16,264
We have barely exchanged three sentences.

456
00:35:16,345 --> 00:35:18,716
He knows enough to wish
to make you his wife.

457
00:35:19,516 --> 00:35:21,692
-As I told your mother...
-You've written to her?

458
00:35:21,773 --> 00:35:23,914
Emphasising the excellence of the match.

459
00:35:24,316 --> 00:35:26,576
The goodness and piety of the groom.

460
00:35:27,011 --> 00:35:30,224
-I'm sure she'll be delighted.
-She would be, if she thought I loved him!

461
00:35:32,526 --> 00:35:33,583
But I do not.

462
00:35:35,947 --> 00:35:39,023
I think, though your mother
would wish you to be happy,

463
00:35:39,405 --> 00:35:42,785
she'd be dismayed to think of you
finding fault with a match...

464
00:35:42,866 --> 00:35:47,946
...because of some false, romantic
notion of what marriage should be.

465
00:35:48,027 --> 00:35:50,287
Is it wrong to hope for love
in a marriage?

466
00:35:52,639 --> 00:35:55,479
When you wed Francis,
did you not marry for love?

467
00:35:58,407 --> 00:36:00,627
I married for what I thought was love.

468
00:36:01,754 --> 00:36:03,797
The illusion lasted barely a year.

469
00:36:05,199 --> 00:36:07,840
My marriage to Mr Warleggan
was not founded on romance,

470
00:36:07,921 --> 00:36:10,281
yet it is altogether more successful.

471
00:36:33,219 --> 00:36:35,139
From Caroline Penvenen.

472
00:36:35,283 --> 00:36:37,554
Begging 30 guineas to help the poor.

473
00:36:39,406 --> 00:36:42,206
You lately spent 3000 on a dowry.

474
00:36:42,891 --> 00:36:44,699
Will another 30 bankrupt you?

475
00:36:46,078 --> 00:36:48,160
I dare say she expects a refusal.

476
00:36:49,861 --> 00:36:51,230
Then I shall disappoint her.

477
00:36:58,869 --> 00:37:00,296
From George Warleggan...

478
00:37:02,340 --> 00:37:03,361
...50 guineas?

479
00:37:03,442 --> 00:37:05,654
I know his game.
It is not compassion for the poor,

480
00:37:05,735 --> 00:37:08,295
it is so his name's at top
of the list of benefactors.

481
00:37:08,376 --> 00:37:10,107
Well, into the pot it goes.

482
00:37:10,188 --> 00:37:12,068
Perhaps we should become footpads.

483
00:37:12,204 --> 00:37:14,084
Now all we need is the goods.

484
00:37:48,225 --> 00:37:52,025
<i>Forth in thy name O, Lord, I go...</i>

485
00:37:52,115 --> 00:37:54,115
Are you sure the goods will be safe here?

486
00:37:56,032 --> 00:37:57,259
It's only for one night.

487
00:37:57,340 --> 00:37:58,722
Tomorrow, we'll be done.

488
00:37:58,868 --> 00:38:03,913
God willing. Yet, landing a cargo
of such value in utmost secrecy...

489
00:38:04,001 --> 00:38:05,399
It will not be plain sailing.

490
00:38:20,501 --> 00:38:22,368
Can you believe they're at this again?

491
00:38:24,531 --> 00:38:27,107
I seen Mr Ross and the others just now
heading for the cove.

492
00:38:27,188 --> 00:38:28,222
Right, let's away.

493
00:38:28,595 --> 00:38:30,520
But Mr Ross did say
we should stay indoors.

494
00:38:30,601 --> 00:38:31,463
He did.

495
00:38:31,544 --> 00:38:33,310
He also said I'm the mother
of two small children,

496
00:38:33,391 --> 00:38:34,976
and should start behaving like one!

497
00:38:35,219 --> 00:38:38,201
So Ena Daniel's upstairs
with Clowance and Jeremy

498
00:38:38,282 --> 00:38:39,884
and we're away to the meetinghouse.

499
00:38:48,062 --> 00:38:49,015
There she is!

500
00:38:55,789 --> 00:38:58,299
-It's there! I can see!
-Fall back!

501
00:39:03,794 --> 00:39:04,806
All's well.

502
00:39:10,046 --> 00:39:14,217
<i>The meek and lowly heart</i>

503
00:39:14,511 --> 00:39:19,136
<i>That in our Saviour was</i>

504
00:39:19,232 --> 00:39:24,342
<i>To us that spirit doth impart...</i>

505
00:39:30,097 --> 00:39:32,850
-Are we close?
-Surely, Captain Ross.

506
00:39:33,573 --> 00:39:34,598
Then let's get gone.

507
00:39:37,370 --> 00:39:38,263
Make haste!

508
00:39:39,094 --> 00:39:40,028
Be gone!

509
00:39:48,257 --> 00:39:52,891
<i>How can we sinners know</i>

510
00:39:52,972 --> 00:39:57,452
<i>Our sins on earth forgiven?</i>

511
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:02,621
<i>How can my gracious Saviour show</i>

512
00:40:02,702 --> 00:40:06,822
<i>My name inscribed in heaven...</i>

513
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,108
We're not far now.

514
00:40:27,202 --> 00:40:32,102
<i>We all his unknown peace receive</i>

515
00:40:32,183 --> 00:40:37,674
<i>And feel his blood applied</i>

516
00:40:41,303 --> 00:40:43,452
Right, put out the candles
and wait in silence.

517
00:40:48,272 --> 00:40:51,058
If any be watching let's hope
we've thrown them off the scent.

518
00:40:57,210 --> 00:40:58,183
Come on!

519
00:40:58,263 --> 00:40:59,303
Come on!

520
00:41:15,583 --> 00:41:17,473
-They're comin'.
-No one the wiser?

521
00:41:17,554 --> 00:41:18,994
So far, so good.

522
00:41:19,075 --> 00:41:20,355
You're certain it was he?

523
00:41:20,436 --> 00:41:22,153
He's most certain the ringleader.

524
00:41:22,539 --> 00:41:24,276
There's no mistakin' the goods.

525
00:41:26,608 --> 00:41:29,328
My suspicion, I knows
where they be heading.

526
00:41:39,418 --> 00:41:41,356
Did I not bid you stay at home?

527
00:41:41,437 --> 00:41:44,438
Yes, Ross, as oft I bid you
and see how well you hear me!

528
00:41:45,435 --> 00:41:47,138
We've been actin' as decoys.

529
00:41:47,218 --> 00:41:49,208
And singing hymns
at the top of our voices.

530
00:41:51,175 --> 00:41:52,146
What'll ye do?

531
00:41:54,404 --> 00:41:55,682
Get a good night's sleep,

532
00:41:57,185 --> 00:41:59,057
and awaken refreshed.

533
00:41:59,394 --> 00:42:00,983
As resident magistrate,

534
00:42:01,064 --> 00:42:04,742
I must have my wits about me
when I send them all to Botany Bay.

535
00:42:22,258 --> 00:42:25,974
So the gaugers and the military be
on their way to the meetinghouse.

536
00:42:26,055 --> 00:42:27,665
Do ye wish to be there
at the moment of arrest?

537
00:42:27,746 --> 00:42:29,958
Oh, I think so.
Why should I miss all the fun?

538
00:42:31,214 --> 00:42:33,195
Morwenna, you received my message?

539
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:34,856
I've invited Mr Whitworth,

540
00:42:34,937 --> 00:42:38,216
so that you may see for yourself
what an amiable man he is.

541
00:42:50,738 --> 00:42:51,847
You know what to do.

542
00:42:52,121 --> 00:42:53,948
But be sure the villagers
keep it to theyselves.

543
00:42:54,029 --> 00:42:56,469
Surely, sister,
else will all hell break loose.

544
00:42:56,778 --> 00:42:59,391
'Tisn't fitting the Lord's house
being used for such a purpose.

545
00:42:59,472 --> 00:43:01,432
Get you gone. I'll to Caroline.

546
00:43:07,818 --> 00:43:10,458
The Reverend Whitworth
to see Miss Chynoweth.

547
00:43:21,578 --> 00:43:24,658
Compliments of the season to you,
Miss Chynoweth.

548
00:43:28,143 --> 00:43:29,159
Come on!

549
00:43:31,877 --> 00:43:32,856
Come on now.

550
00:43:34,515 --> 00:43:36,268
Folks do love a spectacle!

551
00:43:37,249 --> 00:43:41,689
An' no more pleasin' than a fancy gent
being led away to jail!

552
00:43:46,882 --> 00:43:48,517
Had my partner, Willie Hick,

553
00:43:48,598 --> 00:43:50,995
not led the king of spades
on the second round,

554
00:43:51,076 --> 00:43:55,335
I'd scarce have know where to look,
but thereafter, by drawing trumps,

555
00:43:55,416 --> 00:43:57,636
we made 12 tricks between us,

556
00:43:57,717 --> 00:44:01,095
and I myself cleared 18 pounds
on the evening!

557
00:44:03,217 --> 00:44:04,817
D'you play whist?

558
00:44:06,033 --> 00:44:06,988
Not at all.

559
00:44:11,420 --> 00:44:16,649
May I say, Miss Chynoweth,
that I detect the hand of God in all this?

560
00:44:16,928 --> 00:44:18,811
Guiding me to the Warleggan ball,

561
00:44:18,892 --> 00:44:22,391
urging me to wear the lemon silk
so you could not fail to notice me.

562
00:44:23,176 --> 00:44:25,685
I felt at once that you'd
been sent to console me,

563
00:44:26,235 --> 00:44:29,686
to be a new mother to my two
young daughters, to...

564
00:44:30,878 --> 00:44:33,850
...comfort me as only a wife can.

565
00:44:34,850 --> 00:44:36,790
And now I know that my
sentiments are returned.

566
00:44:36,871 --> 00:44:38,832
I'm not at all sure they are returned.

567
00:44:39,259 --> 00:44:41,436
Your hesitancy does you credit.

568
00:44:42,034 --> 00:44:45,205
All decent women approach matrimony
with a degree of shyness.

569
00:44:45,546 --> 00:44:48,951
But as a man of feeling
and a man of God...

570
00:44:50,140 --> 00:44:52,245
...I assure you, my love will be returned.

571
00:45:02,488 --> 00:45:04,328
I pray you excuse me, Sir.

572
00:45:04,630 --> 00:45:05,611
I cannot.

573
00:45:12,124 --> 00:45:13,563
Did she refuse you?

574
00:45:14,316 --> 00:45:15,296
Oh, I'm not disheartened.

575
00:45:16,265 --> 00:45:18,025
Naturally, she'll come around.

576
00:45:18,972 --> 00:45:20,989
In the meantime, let's proceed
with arrangements as planned.

577
00:45:35,188 --> 00:45:37,839
I regret you have been sent
on a fool's errand, Captain.

578
00:45:38,918 --> 00:45:40,884
-Thank you very much, sir.
-No problem.

579
00:45:42,415 --> 00:45:43,338
Men.

580
00:45:45,109 --> 00:45:49,715
<i>And labour on at thy command</i>

581
00:45:50,473 --> 00:45:55,382
<i>And offer all my works to thee</i>

582
00:45:56,677 --> 00:46:01,637
<i>Give me to bear thy easy yoke</i>

583
00:46:02,244 --> 00:46:04,426
<i>And still to things...</i>

584
00:46:04,514 --> 00:46:06,139
Good day to thee, sir.

585
00:46:06,493 --> 00:46:08,219
See the fruits of your generosity!

586
00:46:09,248 --> 00:46:11,019
Have you come to make further donation?

587
00:46:12,299 --> 00:46:13,659
-Donation?
-Yes, sir,

588
00:46:13,745 --> 00:46:15,868
see what your kind
contribution has purchased.

589
00:46:15,949 --> 00:46:18,029
Grain. A whole shipful!

590
00:46:18,211 --> 00:46:21,763
Now bein' sold at half the market price
to those most needy in the district.

591
00:46:21,844 --> 00:46:24,144
Shall I put you down
for 70 guineas next time?

592
00:46:24,604 --> 00:46:25,749
There will be no next time.

593
00:46:25,830 --> 00:46:29,106
It is not my custom to contribute
to the welfare of wastrels,

594
00:46:29,187 --> 00:46:31,099
who are too idle to earn their own bread.

595
00:46:31,716 --> 00:46:36,061
In which case, may I ask
what your business is here?

596
00:46:36,448 --> 00:46:39,673
For lest you're unaware,
this is Nampara land.

597
00:46:40,649 --> 00:46:42,449
And it appears you're trespassing.

598
00:46:42,688 --> 00:46:45,986
As a magistrate, no doubt you're aware
of the penalty for such a crime?

599
00:46:46,648 --> 00:46:48,702
I advise you remove yourselves,

600
00:46:49,422 --> 00:46:52,594
or I'll call back the soldiers you sent
and have you both arrested.

601
00:47:06,860 --> 00:47:07,727
Bye.

602
00:47:10,455 --> 00:47:14,083
It was deliberate! An elaborate subterfuge
designed to trick me.

603
00:47:14,164 --> 00:47:17,505
Or possibly with a view to preserving calm
and averting a riot?

604
00:47:17,586 --> 00:47:19,656
It was done so that I would believe
he was breaking the law,

605
00:47:19,737 --> 00:47:22,212
and would look a fool
when I attempted to bring him to heel!

606
00:47:23,379 --> 00:47:25,214
Well, he's overplayed his hand this time.

607
00:47:58,284 --> 00:47:59,444
How is Williams?

608
00:48:01,372 --> 00:48:02,948
He's improving.

609
00:48:03,504 --> 00:48:04,612
I'll sit with him a while.

610
00:48:05,941 --> 00:48:09,339
No, I must keep him under observation
as I promised.

611
00:48:10,205 --> 00:48:12,374
Did I not vow to learn
some of your skills?

612
00:48:13,700 --> 00:48:15,515
If only to give you one hour's rest in 20?

613
00:48:15,596 --> 00:48:16,628
I can manage.

614
00:48:17,769 --> 00:48:18,825
You saved my life.

615
00:48:20,771 --> 00:48:23,691
We need you alive so you can save others.

616
00:48:23,772 --> 00:48:25,132
With no fresh water?

617
00:48:26,467 --> 00:48:28,057
No medicine, no pain relief?

618
00:48:37,180 --> 00:48:38,500
They're taking bets.

619
00:48:39,972 --> 00:48:40,972
On what?

620
00:48:43,692 --> 00:48:45,532
Which prisoner will be next to die.

621
00:49:01,140 --> 00:49:02,131
Can I have a word?

622
00:49:07,172 --> 00:49:09,612
George Warleggan's to close Wheal Leisure.

623
00:49:11,235 --> 00:49:12,622
With immediate effect.

624
00:49:13,523 --> 00:49:14,959
But why?

625
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,320
It'd mean the loss of more than 70 jobs.

626
00:49:18,419 --> 00:49:21,225
And more hardship for 70 families
already struggling.

627
00:49:21,306 --> 00:49:23,144
But the mine's still in profit.
Why would he close her now?

628
00:49:23,224 --> 00:49:24,101
Because he can.

629
00:49:24,542 --> 00:49:26,071
Because the profits are small,

630
00:49:26,491 --> 00:49:29,923
and keeping her open puts her in
competition with other Warleggan mines.

631
00:49:30,180 --> 00:49:33,900
Because she belonged to Ross
and closin' her will hurt 'im.

632
00:49:35,460 --> 00:49:40,500
So, to spite Ross, George would
send 70 families into direst poverty?

633
00:49:41,971 --> 00:49:43,451
'Tis about the size of it.

634
00:49:54,916 --> 00:49:56,676
I'm to be sent back to Trenwith?

635
00:49:56,757 --> 00:49:58,390
Along with Geoffrey Charles.

636
00:49:59,122 --> 00:50:00,669
Now pack your things at once.

637
00:50:08,619 --> 00:50:09,892
Of course she weeps.

638
00:50:10,349 --> 00:50:14,266
To be forced to return to the tedium of
Trenwith after the happy bustle of Truro?

639
00:50:15,300 --> 00:50:17,305
She'll soon see the error of her ways,

640
00:50:17,386 --> 00:50:20,146
and be begging us to name
a date for her wedding.

641
00:50:28,819 --> 00:50:31,014
I'd say we did what we set out to do.

642
00:50:32,170 --> 00:50:34,366
Five villages will now survive the winter.

643
00:50:34,485 --> 00:50:35,584
Yes.

644
00:50:36,049 --> 00:50:37,858
But at a price we hadn't counted on.

645
00:50:39,196 --> 00:50:42,783
The closing of Wheal Leisure can only
have been triggered by our grain venture.

646
00:50:44,269 --> 00:50:46,949
So we've helped some and ruined others.

647
00:50:47,772 --> 00:50:49,132
Seventy families.

648
00:50:52,370 --> 00:50:53,520
What can we do for them?

649
00:50:54,070 --> 00:50:55,855
Ross, Demelza.

650
00:50:57,668 --> 00:50:59,635
I came to tell you that
I'm leaving for London.

651
00:50:59,716 --> 00:51:01,770
-Have you had word of Dwight?
-From Unwin.

652
00:51:01,851 --> 00:51:04,596
He assures me that all is well
and I've no cause for concern.

653
00:51:06,592 --> 00:51:07,461
What will you do?

654
00:51:07,542 --> 00:51:08,663
Go to the Admiralty.

655
00:51:08,921 --> 00:51:10,723
See if we can negotiate a ransom.

656
00:51:11,317 --> 00:51:12,374
I wish you luck.

657
00:51:15,894 --> 00:51:17,248
We'll bring him home.

658
00:51:18,236 --> 00:51:19,316
Somehow.

659
00:51:25,251 --> 00:51:27,371
The Admiralty doesn't deal in ransoms.

660
00:51:32,332 --> 00:51:33,652
Bless you, Enys.

661
00:51:35,589 --> 00:51:37,357
I think you'll live, Williams.

662
00:51:38,132 --> 00:51:41,052
And those barbarians wagered
he'd be next to die.

663
00:51:42,292 --> 00:51:43,421
Not if I can help it.

664
00:51:48,220 --> 00:51:49,860
No, please!

665
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:52,558
I win the bet!

666
00:52:01,307 --> 00:52:02,507
Dear God.

667
00:52:40,996 --> 00:52:42,276
I have an idea.

668
00:52:46,164 --> 00:52:49,207
It's a delicate balance.
We're already overmanned.

669
00:52:49,827 --> 00:52:52,907
If we take on more men to take
out more ore, we flood the market.

670
00:52:52,988 --> 00:52:54,548
And the price drops.

671
00:52:54,629 --> 00:52:56,309
The ore runs out more quickly.

672
00:52:56,390 --> 00:52:59,470
But here and here and here,

673
00:52:59,945 --> 00:53:02,044
there have been indications
of possible new lodes.

674
00:53:02,403 --> 00:53:04,147
Which may or may not come to anything.

675
00:53:04,228 --> 00:53:06,647
And which we've so far opted
not to explore.

676
00:53:07,060 --> 00:53:08,906
With an extra 30 men, we could explore.

677
00:53:10,074 --> 00:53:11,235
Thirty extra men?

678
00:53:11,613 --> 00:53:12,462
Each on a wage?

679
00:53:12,543 --> 00:53:13,697
Which I could pay.

680
00:53:14,434 --> 00:53:16,565
If I opted to plough my profits
back into the mine,

681
00:53:16,646 --> 00:53:17,958
instead of taking a dividend.

682
00:53:18,039 --> 00:53:19,149
But now, Ross?

683
00:53:19,356 --> 00:53:22,274
With the future so uncertain,
a war with France.

684
00:53:22,637 --> 00:53:24,491
And a wife and two children to support?

685
00:53:24,900 --> 00:53:26,177
My wife is in agreement with me.

686
00:53:32,356 --> 00:53:33,508
Good man.

687
00:53:33,647 --> 00:53:35,087
Thank you, much obliged.

688
00:53:35,563 --> 00:53:36,923
God bless you, sir.

689
00:53:40,141 --> 00:53:41,045
Well done.

690
00:53:43,977 --> 00:53:47,683
<i>I will sing Twelve O
What is your Twelve O?</i>

691
00:53:47,764 --> 00:53:49,498
<i>Twelve are the Twelve Apostles</i>

692
00:53:49,579 --> 00:53:51,370
<i>Eleven are the eleven will go to Heaven</i>

693
00:53:51,451 --> 00:53:53,076
<i>Ten are the Ten Commandments</i>

694
00:53:53,157 --> 00:53:55,397
<i>Nine is a moon shine bright and clear...</i>

695
00:53:56,819 --> 00:53:59,329
-Need a hand, do ye, sirs?
-Drake, we're back!

696
00:54:02,556 --> 00:54:03,796
Miss Morwenna.

697
00:54:13,088 --> 00:54:15,262
I think we should let Mr Carne
continue on his way.

698
00:54:16,087 --> 00:54:17,247
Go.

699
00:54:19,074 --> 00:54:20,055
Bye, Drake.

700
00:54:20,818 --> 00:54:22,195
Come and visit us soon.

701
00:54:25,070 --> 00:54:27,613
-Thanks for thy help, brother.
-They're back.

702
00:54:42,084 --> 00:54:43,985
And how long will Morwenna require?

703
00:54:44,675 --> 00:54:46,395
A few weeks at least.

704
00:54:48,003 --> 00:54:50,702
I must confess,
I'm not overly enamoured of him.

705
00:54:51,305 --> 00:54:53,433
There's something about him
that makes my skin crawl.

706
00:54:53,529 --> 00:54:56,895
The man is a reptile and a prig.
He is also a Godolphin.

707
00:54:57,331 --> 00:54:59,205
Morwenna does not realise
how lucky she is.

708
00:55:01,172 --> 00:55:02,532
But she will realise.

709
00:55:05,411 --> 00:55:09,283
Gold brocade and breeches close-fitting,

710
00:55:10,036 --> 00:55:16,740
to inspire in a bride
both awe and anticipation.

711
00:55:20,580 --> 00:55:21,773
I liked Morwenna.

712
00:55:22,512 --> 00:55:25,969
She seemed gentle and kindly.

713
00:55:26,308 --> 00:55:27,982
This return, though, I fear it.

714
00:55:28,493 --> 00:55:30,190
She an' Drake cannot come to good.

715
00:55:30,271 --> 00:55:33,141
George will be livid.
That's good enough for me!

716
00:55:33,269 --> 00:55:37,962
But a low-born miner's son aspiring
to the heart of his wife's cousin?

717
00:55:38,043 --> 00:55:39,363
Why should he object?

718
00:55:40,263 --> 00:55:44,386
When a lowly mine owner can aspire
to the hand of a great lady?

719
00:55:44,777 --> 00:55:45,882
That's different!

720
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:47,931
I hope Morwenna knows it's different,

721
00:55:48,497 --> 00:55:50,704
an' takes care to stay out of Drake's way.
