you won't have gone long but this trip

will upset there huh I suppose there is

no but it was Paul that mr. egg pen was

hurt why we always check quite regular

I'm accident 21 I ought to go to she

won't speak again

come in Havering James really hope is

I'm not disturbing you mr. James what is

it only just now heard the sad news

concerning the death of mrs. Hobbs oh

yes I'm afraid it'd happen this

afternoon

please accept my sincere condolences

thank you James

my hope is she passed away peacefully

yes um I suppose yes your thank God for

that mercy I'm sure Lindh you makes a

man conscious of mortality when he

watches his own generation go

not you

there James dearest Hilda and he died

this afternoon in pens at an accident

and the doctors think he's dying - what

a cheerful letter for anyone good point

she'll be back and think of it in a day

or two the cough in the service the

burial the tea and Albert Benbow

fretting to see you will I went to

Pittacus first of course I felt sure

she'd have left the will with him he is

the Wesleyan solicitor after all if I

went to any solicitor no I know

she must have initially made a will

anyhow he knew nothing about it so I

went on up to the bank I couldn't see

mr. breeze seems it was away in his bed

no trouble with his boils I suppose it's

never been the same there since mr.

Lovett went so I couldn't see breeze so

saw the cashier she's left a securities

there all right but no sign of a will he

said he could produce the securities but

only to Edwin the nearest heir

so that's it then there is no will seems

that way what happens now well I looked

up Whitaker's Almanac they got a section

on it test dates it seems that a

personal property is divided or equally

between edwin maggie and you that's just

a personal property just two personal

things you understood the real property

this house in that that all goes to

edwin is the nearest they're all of it

that's the law I'm a good Tory and

always have been but that law needs

reforming I do know that you don't think

Edwin would insist on his rackets he

could do those things do you found in a

room yes

Brad wind with antes look Maggie without

isla nothing else

no nothing but you all the children no

no let's be careful what we say even a

minute darling boy George's employ ends

that Charlie says temperature hundred

and two anyway I knew this morning there

was something wrong with him

Charlie says there is nothing to worry

about but of course he can't go out

tomorrow and we shall have to stand

aleikum Janet and Johnny send their love

your ever loving wife fielder your ever

loving wife

dear lord I wish she was with me no no

for her sake I don't at least you miss

always I think everything was done oh

sorry I've been longer than I said I

thought I better pop round see how

Inkpen was getting on now

oh no change they've come back

who Albert McLaren why they want to talk

to you about the funeral

you don't know subtle they say I thought

I better ask him if they wanted to do

they yes mmm

bring it it

Wow there you are red witness well the

thing things I thought we ought to sort

out best in it sooner rather than later

you know these things do always take so

much time especially if we want to get

it in this week it's not wise to leave

it over the weekend right so that really

leaves Friday which is no time at all we

wondered how you felt about Friday Edwin

I think I'll get round the table as when

you'd best take the place brother [ __ ]

Clara Alberta yeah I'll set this side

myself never to mr. client good maybe we

should be eating later well I didn't

know your beer did Albert so don't see

how I could buy for you

that's what of me Maggie you didn't know

this bad mmm or turn this German is tea

that's not too fine for us Maggie and

there's not much time for catering just

hope yourselves to whatever you want so

what do you think the Friday Edwin yes

probably would be best gives us time to

invite everyone insane who's having to

wait the weekend thanks oh yes bound to

be maybe a choral service in the chapel

and the size of a procession to Sunday

school are going to walk oh yes mr.

Tom's on the way back here and when she

told him the news the first thing you

said was so new school of war beyond

said thank you I'm quite a number the

congregation to what after see how many

we can get back here fatigue possibly

that John we declare that we shan't be

having any coral service now call us it

no I intend to keep everything very

simple well it it's up to you of course

Edwin you're chief mourner we all know

that but what the [ __ ] think I don't

care what I think surely an to ative

wanted a car

no but I've decided it'll be simple and

that's positive

there'll be no guests

what's the weather outside the family no

guests at all know what I think that's

foolish I do I just don't see the reason

there's no reason I think it's best well

you know your own mind of course a

tremendous planning says but even if you

publish its family there'll be a certain

fuel expect to come representatives is

what all that means

representatives high dignitaries

representing air the ministers of course

and there the doctor too and it'll not

be easy to say no to him could cause I'm

cousinís you know

well I won't you get down to a minimum

and of course there's the Sunday school

there we go there cuz they made their

plans they'll have to be some form of

service that win we could have it in the

cemetery chapel I suppose

how cold it is just now and that chuckle

it's got no hating at all least our

Chapel I'll be good and warm

not bad one tails our food is that

cemetery chapel the search scores of

people are caught their deaths in there

we shouldn't be going into cemetery

chapel but don't be going into any

chapel there will be a service we should

have it to you here yeah we shall and

the service here and we shall go to the

chapel via Wedgwood Street well we can't

do that mana well surely we mistake the

longest route oops a new square past the

town hall and the samples give folk a

chance to see the last journey should be

the longest you know I've decided we

shall go cuz I have Wedgwood Street

[Music]

find the character you're liking Johnny

I was just admiring it little wine

merchant kneeling quite a bargain I

thought what do you think of the tyrant

Hilda exaggerated Johnny don't you stand

for any of its rudeness Charlie tip the

Blessed decanter Olli that's alright

Adela I know the boy imagines he has the

best seller in London how was George

feeling now oh he's very much better

isn't he Hilda seems to be he was

bounding about in my office this morning

as though he'd never been ill in his

life the resilience of the young huh

he's quite bossy to be an architect he

hadn't been there ten minutes before he

was telling me wants to come to London

and study under me what do you think of

that scheme Hilda oh I don't know what's

Johnny thinking oh I mean who could find

him a room with us couldn't we darling

mm I don't see why not well well I

should have to speak to Edwin of course

I can't see old Teddy raising any

objections you always wanted to be an

architect himself yeah his old man

wouldn't have it but if a tyrant was old

clay hanger I could be a blessing in

disguise oh I think it made a good

architect but he may not have made the

pots he has oh yes he's very successful

right safe as houses - I wouldn't mind a

slice of that stability of his you don't

get stability in the professions in fact

as far as I can see the only way to get

rich as an architect is to marry a woman

whose relations die off and leave her

their money yes - my relation has a

second man and now let's have a toast to

the dear old towns why not I thought

you'd be toasting your escape from them

I know what you mean that did their best

to crucify us

I was the infamous mrs. Chris and he was

the Rogues that ran off with me we've

bested them didn't we my love oh no real

strength just a lot of noise right when

all said they're weaklings and you can't

help having affection for that yeah

barbaric I'll give you dirty and they're

stupid and mean

do you think John is right you can't

help liking them in a strange way from a

distance to the towers and of course

these will be moving out of them soon

moving you up yes of course it's the

only possible thing to do

photons you mean well we should live in

the country

I mean I'm thoroughly approve it is I

don't understand why more businessmen

don't do it there's some beautiful

countryside near the five towns

but isn't away it'll be a wrench for

Edwin I remember him when that house was

built he used to go watch his progress

every day he was too excited as he was

but Edwin's no old stick-in-the-mud is

he Hilda good heavens no

[Music]

[Music]

I'm the resurrection and the life saith

the Lord

a that believeth in me though he were

dead yet shall he live

whosoever liveth and believeth in me

shall never die I know that my Redeemer

liveth and that he shall stand at the

latter day upon the earth and though

after my skin worms destroy this body

yet in my flesh shall I say God whom I

shall see for myself and mine eyes shall

behold and not another we brought

nothing into this world and it is

certain we can carry nothing helped the

Lord gave and the LORD hath taken away

the seed to be the name of the Lord

thought thou hast been our refuge from

one generation to another before the

mountains were brought forth or ever the

earth and the world 1:8 now art God from

ever less for us butchers II know that

your labor has not in vain and the Lord

my dear brethren we are gathered today

to better last farewell to a treasured

sisty and to commit her soul unto the

Lord a lost whose is heir-apparent a

presence amongst us was like a bacon to

lighten the darkness of this sinful

world a generous spirit

I love the fellow man her dedication to

Christ did they believe what they're

saying did they know her at all doesn't

it matter anyway I wonder what her

spirits do you know we should be mindful

also much did those rings cost or

daresay a bit he gave at was she dwelt

among us and us try for salvation she a

noble soul she will be in a few days

though and when she does come back we

shall start a new life and we know she

has triumphed she is forever lasting in

company with Christ not all say to the

Lord's

[Music]

kitchen and make yourself a cup of tea

hospital to visit in pen oh did you good

how is he today gone home gone home

matron said he insisted cold lord is he

well enough what he said so she said he

thanked them all very much for saving

his life but he wasn't a patient anymore

he was a convalescent then he asked him

to order a cab to drive him out his

cottage at UM thanks hon I did God Lord

Hey he said he loves his freedom I was

thinking we ought to go out and see him

well let's the trouble is to get there

there no decent trains to go and not at

all to come back until nearly nine

o'clock and we can't cycle in this

weather at least I can't

what about tomorrow Sunday trains are

worse what a ghastly line yeah oh isn't

it a pity you haven't got a dog-cart mmm

then we could use the workhorse every

now and then it wouldn't cost anything

extra would it see Karl makes up to

different things like that

suppose you've got all the work that one

horse can do and more why did you get

another one no doubt and build fresh

tables to they'd have got room for two

don't too hot it why don't you come to

the stable and Avenue then perhaps

you'll be satisfied why shouldn't they

be no you've got a fresh one

now I'm tell ya I've taken this one

under for tonight's trial from Shauna

how is she doing on Schmid line new

report sir what happened to the old

horse who's God dropped down dead last

week oh it's a privilege of Austin of

that sort of thing that always doing it

told me hey we're here for one thing

should adore horses

the scions pin

suppose this box couldn't be made into

two storms good can you get a trap in

the shed as well as the cart uh-huh

if you drop the shafts of the trap under

the cart

what of it don't think only um mrs. he's

going to have the mere messes there's no

man like you no man in the world

but best baguette in the home and be

like for Denny

what do you think that Maggie it's your

choice entirely it's what's best for you

Maggie that's all we want what's best

for you gonna be quite a show we did

wonder if it was right to decorate at

all but then I said well but I said I

know it's what auntie would have wished

I said she just loved her family

Christmas I said it's up to Edwin when

aunt his house is sold and I'm sure he'd

bear you in mind when he takes his

decision but he has got his duties as

well you see his two disses executives

what Carrie means is trusty an executive

he has to see that the money is invested

properly you see mind you I'm quite

happy to look after the investing for

him if he wants me to that is he is the

trustee Albert we must leave it to him

well either way Maggie the house will

have to be sold which brings us back to

the question you see the question of

where you choose to live now a no Edwin

did offer no it's most kind of them but

he would do I'm not going to be a burden

to anyone but if you lived here no it

couldn't

if you even imagined you'd be a burden

just think of the help you'd be to

Albert and me you're such a wonderful

housekeeper and you'd never feel idle

for a moment here and all you'd pay is

your share of your housekeeping

of course it would make the children so

happy to have their Auntie looking after

them they love their aunty Maggie you

know they do and you love them oh I do

love them yes and of all of them they're

not settle that is actually a no more

after Christmas she shall come here and

live with us

Shaanxi Albert you must think of this

house as your new home

[Music]

come to visit the convalescent when I'll

be blowed

excuse my strong language not a usual

fading no you stay where you are I have

strict instructions that you are to stay

in your chair I don't know that woman

Bonnie who she any tries it because you

can't rule me did you get here there's

no train at this time sit down please do

well watch I asked mrs. Dahmer to fetch

you tea or strong liquors no nothing

really this is a very short visit

actually I never thought we'd get this

far

I'm spin is watering the horse a horse

my well Edmonds no mine I suppose he did

say it was to be mine only the poor

thing hasn't got another one yet Teddy

unsteady arm you're like audio sexy

can't carry on a logical conversation

Jimmy just say that you drove here well

I'm just bended mostly he's instructing

me and driving Edwin has bought a

dog-cart eight heads mm-hmm

I asked him to and he did God heavens

above I don't think there's any called

his answers probably never feminine

tricks on me I meant no insult you're

quite aware of that but I know how the

town's feel about fripperies and in

these parts don't card well anything one

bit decent is a frippery here anyway

it's all your doing what is all this you

said that Edwin was in a groove you said

he didn't know what a life is oh I see

so life is a dog-cart well he must

confess it is a start

get him on the council and I shall

really applaud these turns needed time

to think of it you'd be mayor yes well

who knows he might be one day you know

the mistake but they'd win is to fight

him back you should always try to show

him that you see his point of view try

to show him I do see his point of view

like all things for then it's an

intelligent one I think it's mistaken

but I see it all right yes so do I

sometimes you know what is very

upsetting to pretend to see somebody's

point of view and then to find yourself

saying it

how'd you have to tell him that you dare

huh I want to live in the country jolly

good

only sensible thing you don't know of a

house find a chance to he told me to say

Ed's agreed to that no not yet but um I

think you will know I shall be surprised

he settle he said he loves that house he

even loves Birds they hmm quite

determined do you have some I see I've

decided that the only thing to do is to

find a house and then show it to him

that way he won't be able to resist it I

wish I could agree with you what do you

know about ladder age Hall ladder Ridge

oh yes I believe its surface ale now

that's it is it what and i flattered

myself you come out here to see me no of

course I came to see you you came to

find out about laundry chore you thought

I know because I live nearby very well

do you you put me in a difficult

position my goal I make it a rule not to

come between man and wife you'd like

ladder is holding it wouldn't as I see

it so he won't tell me don't know well

as have no importance I should always

find somebody who will

why I didn't want to call at the agents

myself in cases well in case

Edie got to here

I've quite decided that we should take

it

[Music]

[Applause]
