00:45:17,466 --> 00:45:18,833
What, really?
906
00:45:26,733 --> 00:45:29,000
Is that him then?
The horse killer?
907
00:45:30,866 --> 00:45:32,700
I reckon I owe you a pint.
908
00:45:32,700 --> 00:45:35,733
Saved me paying out to half the
county by offing that horse.
909
00:45:35,733 --> 00:45:39,200
(laughs, men clamoring)
910
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,433
I think we might have a budding
vet on our hands.
911
00:45:42,433 --> 00:45:45,333
It's just good
to see her so happy.
912
00:45:45,333 --> 00:45:47,333
Come on, Jess!
(laughs)
913
00:45:47,933 --> 00:45:49,100
Good girl!
914
00:45:49,100 --> 00:45:52,400
You know she parroted
your old man yesterday.
915
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,466
She said to me, bold as brass,
916
00:45:54,466 --> 00:45:57,900
"We were born to the land
to work the land."
917
00:45:57,900 --> 00:46:00,600
(dog barking)
918
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,533
That weren't me old man
she were parroting.
919
00:46:03,533 --> 00:46:05,133
It was me mother.
920
00:46:10,233 --> 00:46:12,433
I'm always worried
I'm letting her down.
921
00:46:14,633 --> 00:46:18,733
You're doing a great job.
922
00:46:18,733 --> 00:46:20,066
Your mother would be proud.
923
00:46:21,566 --> 00:46:23,433
Don't,
you'll start me off.
924
00:46:25,666 --> 00:46:28,166
Jenny's getting older.
925
00:46:28,166 --> 00:46:31,566
Maybe right now
she needs a big sister
926
00:46:31,566 --> 00:46:33,166
more than she needs a mother.
927
00:46:33,166 --> 00:46:36,300
(dog barking,
Jenny shouting playfully)
928
00:46:36,300 --> 00:46:37,433
Thank you.

HELEN:
Come on, then.
931
00:46:43,900 --> 00:46:46,733
Right, let's see if you
can beat the dog, Jenny!
932
00:47:01,900 --> 00:47:04,433
How were it?
933
00:47:20,300 --> 00:47:21,433
James.
934
00:47:30,033 --> 00:47:32,933
The post-mortem
was quite conclusive.
935
00:47:35,100 --> 00:47:38,100
Significant torsion
of the bowel.
936
00:47:41,866 --> 00:47:44,500
(exasperated sigh of relief)
937
00:47:46,366 --> 00:47:50,766
There was necrosis, so he'd
been in that state for a while.
938
00:47:50,766 --> 00:47:53,066
Absolutely nothing you could
have done for him,
939
00:47:53,066 --> 00:47:54,633
except put him out of his
misery.
940
00:47:54,633 --> 00:47:58,533
(sniffles)
And Hugh?
941
00:47:58,533 --> 00:47:59,566
He agrees with that?
942
00:47:59,566 --> 00:48:01,500
I'm not sure either of us
943
00:48:01,500 --> 00:48:03,533
will be welcome at his stables
for a bit.
944
00:48:08,700 --> 00:48:11,500
James, your diagnosis,
945
00:48:11,500 --> 00:48:14,533
your chosen course of action,
were both textbook.
946
00:48:14,533 --> 00:48:16,766
Then why don't
I feel any better?
947
00:48:16,766 --> 00:48:20,400
Because you had to euthanize
a beautiful, young animal.
948
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,200
I never doubted you
for a second, Jim.
949
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,066
There you are--
where is it?
950
00:48:26,066 --> 00:48:28,433
(bell rings)
You've lost the money,
haven't you?
951
00:48:28,433 --> 00:48:30,566
See for yourself.
952
00:48:37,100 --> 00:48:38,466
I'll be checking it
against the ledger.
953
00:48:38,466 --> 00:48:40,266
If there's so much as a
ha'penny missing--
954
00:48:40,266 --> 00:48:41,966
I'll be flogged and boiled
in oil.
955
00:48:41,966 --> 00:48:45,000
Mr. Farnon, it's for you.
956
00:48:49,333 --> 00:48:50,766
General!
957
00:48:50,766 --> 00:48:53,166
Siegfried, I was rather hoping
to see you at the racecourse.
958
00:48:53,166 --> 00:48:56,066
I didn't think
there was much point.
959
00:48:56,066 --> 00:48:57,833
I assume you've spoken
to Hugh Hulton?
960
00:48:57,833 --> 00:48:59,200
Yes, terrible business.
961
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:00,666
Awful.
962
00:49:00,666 --> 00:49:01,633
It was the only thing to do,
963
00:49:01,633 --> 00:49:03,066
the poor animal
was too far gone.
964
00:49:03,066 --> 00:49:06,300
Yes, well, I thought you were
very impressive yesterday
965
00:49:06,300 --> 00:49:08,466
and I'd still like
to offer you the role.
966
00:49:08,466 --> 00:49:11,100
General,
I can't thank you enough.
967
00:49:11,100 --> 00:49:13,233
You won't regret it,
I assure you.
968
00:49:13,233 --> 00:49:14,500
I said I'd like to.
969
00:49:14,500 --> 00:49:18,466

owners would be very twitchy,
970
00:49:18,466 --> 00:49:20,033

associated
971

972
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,400
But he did absolutely
the right thing.
973
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,400
The post-mortem
couldn't be clearer.
Even so.
974
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,366

of Darrowby, hm?
975
00:49:31,366 --> 00:49:32,466
