1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,380
Mrs Reilly's ghost! In the woods!

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:06,380
Will, there is nothing I can do about
what's happening to you now.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,380
Denny! Don't be a bloody fool!

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,380
I killed him!
My only friend and I killed him.

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,380
We both have reasons to keep quiet,
don't we, Colonel, eh?

6
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,380
So, Wickham's attempted seduction
of Georgiana has remained a secret?

7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,380
- We can hardly bear to think of it,
let alone mention his name!
- Of course.

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,380
Colonel Fitzwilliam has asked to
seek Georgiana's hand on his return,

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,380
I cannot receive you anymore.

10
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,380
- This isn't what you want!
- It's bigger than you or I!

11
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,380
Our one suspect is yourself.

12
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,380
- I didn't do it, you know.
- I believe you.

13
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,380
Freddie Delancy. He's my sweetheart.

14
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,380
Has the jury reached a verdict?

15
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,380
Captain Denny was murdered
by George Wickham.

16
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,380
You will be committed for trial
at the next Derby Assize!

17
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,400
- I didn't do it!
- Freddie!

18
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,400
I'm sorry!

19
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,380
'Darcy!'

20
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,380
Darcy!

21
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,380
Sir Selwyn asked you a question.

22
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:44,380
Forgive me.

23
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,400
I was asking about the Bidwell girl,
Louisa.

24
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,380
She's in some distress.

25
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,380
It is a personal matter.
Nothing to do with the case.

26
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,380
Come now, you can
give me more credit than that.

27
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,380
It was Wickham she was looking at,
wasn't it?

28
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,380
Or should I say, Freddie?

29
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,380
Were they lovers?
She bore his child.

30
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,400
He called himself Freddie Delancy,
he told her he was a soldier.

31
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,380
How did they become acquainted?

32
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,380
It seems when his wife was staying
with Mr and Mrs Bingley

33
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,380
at Highmarten,
Wickham would ride over here

34
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,380
and spend his days roaming
Pemberley Woods.

35
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,380
I see.

36
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,380
In search of fruit
ripe enough to pluck.

37
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,400
Yet again, Wickham
proves his superior character.

38
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,380
It won't look good for him
if this comes up in court.

39
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,380
That's the kind of conduct
that can prejudice a jury

40
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,400
quite, quite severely.

41
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,400
Open the gate!

42
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,400
America, the New World.

43
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,380
I've decided to go there
when this nightmare is over.

44
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,380
It's a long voyage.

45
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,380
With little prospect of return.

46
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,400
But then, my alternative offers me
a strictly one-way journey too.

47
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,400
You should at least move the desk
over to the light.

48
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,400
Clearly you haven't noticed
the view.

49
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,400
How is Louisa?

50
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,380
You honestly expect me
to believe you care?!

51
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,380
What about my son? Georgie?

52
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,400
He'll be fine.

53
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,400
I loved her, you know?

54
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,400
After a fashion.
You wanted to see me. Yes.

55
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:03,380
Yes, to ask that you don't mention
this... situation at the trial.

56
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,380
I'll be under oath.

57
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,380
Damn it, Darcy, I could hang!

58
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,380
Don't you think I'm aware of that?!

59
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,380
I'm doing everything
I can to preserve your life,

60
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,380
but I will not perjure
myself for you!

61
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,380
It wasn't enough that
you are unwelcome at Highmarten,

62
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,380
you had to ride to Pemberley and
deliberately ruin an innocent girl?!

63
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,380
I did nothing of the sort!
I came to Pemberley,

64
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,400
because it's the place I've been
happiest in my life! Damn you!

65
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:34,400
Please, Fitzwilliam, at LEAST
keep my wife away from the trial.

66
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,380
Is there any connection
between your affair

67
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,380
with Louisa Bidwell
and Captain Denny's death?

68
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,400
None!

69
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,380
'She didn't know'

70
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,380
it was George Wickham, Madam,
I swear on the baby's life!

71
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,380
Please don't worry, we hold Wickham
entirely responsible.

72
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,380
If Mr Bidwell ever finds out!
This'll kill him!

73
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,380
Mr Darcy will keep him busy
up at the house for a few days,

74
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,380
to give you all some time.

75
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,380
Louisa, when we last spoke,

76
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,380
you mentioned there was
a lady with Wickham.

77
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,380
Do you know her name? Eleanor?

78
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,400
That's all I know.
When did you last see her?

79
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,400
Louisa? It's very important that you
tell me the whole truth now.

80
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,400
The morning of the murder.

81
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,380
I was to meet her in the cellars
of the old abbey

82
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,380
to hand over Georgie.

83
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,380
I was worried about Freddie,
I'd not seen or heard from him,

84
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,380
I hoped he'd be there too!

85
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,400
Instead, there was another man. Who?

86
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,400
Captain Denny.

87
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,380
You're sure it was him?

88
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,380
Please, Madam, I know
nothing about his death!

89
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,380
Can you remember anything about this
lady? Anything at all?

90
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,380
What she was wearing?

91
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:11,380
She had on a long,
dark-coloured coat

92
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,380
'and a bonnet with green ribbons.'

93
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,400
Miss Bidwell!

94
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,380
When I got there,
I didn't trust her.

95
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,380
Where's Freddie?

96
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,380
This is Captain Denny,
he's a friend of Freddie's.

97
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,380
'She was going to look after the
baby

98
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,380
'until we got ourselves
back on our feet.

99
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,380
'And?

100
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,400
'I agreed at first.

101
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,380
'But there was something about her.

102
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,380
'She loved Georgie far too much.'

103
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,380
You beautiful little thing!

104
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,380
Miss Bidwell,
here is the 30 pounds,

105
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,380
I trust that will be satisfactory...

106
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,380
Miss Bidwell!

107
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,380
Miss Bidwell! 'She was furious.'

108
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,400
MISS BIDWELL!

109
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,400
She thought that it was money
I was after for my own child.

110
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,400
We can't keep him, Madam.
Not George Wickham's bastard son.

111
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,380
(Will!)

112
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,380
You mustn't get up, William!
The doctor forbade it!

113
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:35,380
My mother wishes to protect me
from all things, Mrs Darcy.

114
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,380
She thinks just cos my body's
failing, my mind must be, too!

115
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,380
Mrs Darcy wants to know
the truth, Louisa!

116
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,400
You should tell her there was
a third person in the
abbey that morning.

117
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,380
Who?

118
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,400
A gentleman.

119
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,400
Louisa?

120
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,400
Colonel Fitzwilliam.

121
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,400
You asked to see me, Madam?

122
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,380
Yes. Mrs Reynolds.

123
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,400
There have been developments
with Louisa Bidwell.

124
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,380
Her baby's going to need a new home.
Oh!

125
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,400
Could you make some discreet
enquiries?

126
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:47,380
My brother's widow runs a boarding
school near Highbury.

127
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,400
She may be able to help. Good.

128
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,380
LAUGHTER

129
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:03,400
Why is it children must always pay
for the sins of their fathers?

130
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,380
And then they got into the coach
and left.

131
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,380
And you're quite sure
that's what you heard?

132
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,380
I'm not a woman
to misremember things,

133
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,380
especially when it comes to
disputes, you can ask Mr Piggott!

134
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,380
Would Mr Piggott be good enough
to spare you for a trip to Derby?

135
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,380
Derby?! You'll probably be called
to give evidence at the trial.

136
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,380
I'll be needing a new hat! Did you
hear that, Mr Piggott?! Derby!

137
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,380
Thank you, Mrs Piggott.
Not at all.

138
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,380
Wickham must have given
the 30 pounds to Denny

139
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,380
as an inducement for
Louisa to give up her baby.

140
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,380
So, Denny was acting as Wickham's
messenger boy?

141
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,380
Too much of a coward
to face Louisa himself.

142
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,380
It appears so.

143
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,380
What a mess!

144
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,380
Wickham asked we keep Lydia
away from the trial.

145
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,380
Well, I'll write and invite her here,

146
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,400
Jane will be grateful for the respite
and I can keep an eye on her.

147
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,380
Darcy...

148
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,400
There was someone else at the abbey
that morning.

149
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,380
Colonel Fitzwilliam.

150
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,380
That's impossible!
Louisa saw him there!

151
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,380
I'm not listening to this!
Don't! Don't!

152
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,380
Don't blind yourself to this!
Why was he there?!

153
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,380
What was that loan of 30 pounds
to Wickham really about?!

154
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,380
Why must you persist
in blackening his name?!

155
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,380
What next, that he's the killer?!
Do you have so little faith in me

156
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,400
you think I'd deliver my sister
to such a man?!

157
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,380
If Wickham is condemned, Pemberley
would be engulfed in scandal.

158
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,380
Darcy would be unlikely
to be received in London

159
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,380
and his credit might be lost.

160
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,380
Bad indeed.

161
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,380
I mention this only to reassure you,
cousin,

162
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,380
of my full and constant support,
Yes. Thank you.

163
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,380
I shall speak to Darcy about it.
If...

164
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,380
help of any kind is needed,
including financial...

165
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,380
Please don't mention it to him!

166
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,380
We are grateful for your kindness,
but he'd be most upset.

167
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,400
You know him!

168
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:29,380
In times of trouble,
family must stick together.

169
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,400
Yes, of course.

170
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,380
Georgiana...
Cousin, don't! Please get up.

171
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,380
Is this not the correct form?
It's not necessary!

172
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,380
Forgive me, Georgiana. I'm...

173
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,380
I am a soldier,

174
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,380
my words fall unpolished,

175
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:03,400
but, please believe, the feelings
behind them are most sincere.

176
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:11,380
My pride and brotherly feelings,

177
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,380
changing, to true affection

178
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,400
and love.

179
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:32,400
Would you do me the very great
honour of joining your life to mine?

180
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,400
Yes!

181
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:45,400
What is it? Nothing, I am fine!
Really, I am fine.

182
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,400
Excuse me.

183
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:32,380
Stop here, please.

184
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:33,400
Whoa!

185
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,380
Sir Selwyn.
Darcy, forgive the intrusion.

186
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,380
I rarely sleep
the night before a trial.

187
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,380
You were right about one thing.

188
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,380
These initials are the work
of mischief.

189
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,380
Frederick Delancy,
Fitzwilliam Darcy.

190
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:54,380
Wickham chose his false name
with deliberate intent.

191
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,380
Other than the Bidwells,

192
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,380
does anyone else live in this part
of the woods? No.

193
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,380
I've long believed Denny jumped
out of the carriage

194
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,380
and ran into these trees
out of fear of George Wickham.

195
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,400
But now I wonder... Was
he going to see the Bidwells?

196
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:18,380
Wickham's affair with Louisa Bidwell
has nothing to do with this trial.

197
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,380
You're a man of conscience, Darcy.

198
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,400
Are you absolutely sure
of what you say?

199
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:53,380
The wicked Mr Wickham,
read it here, only a penny.

200
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,400
Only a penny, read it here.

201
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,380
Darcy. Morning, cousin.

202
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,400
Alveston.

203
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,380
Good news!

204
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,380
The stone found in the woods won't
be admissible evidence in court,

205
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,380
it's too inconclusive.

206
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:17,380
So, we begin with no murder weapon,
and no motive. Good. Good.

207
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,380
It's Mr Darcy.

208
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:24,400
Mr Cartwright, counsel
for the prosecution. One of the best.

209
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:30,400
Darcy. Sir Selwyn. Colonel.
Sir Selwyn.

210
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,380
Why you had to hire that radical
to defend Wickham, I don't know!

211
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,400
It's high risk, if you ask me.

How say you, George Wickham?

216
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,380
Not guilty, Your Honour!

the evidence going to be presented
to you today

221
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,380
will leave you with little doubt
in your minds,

222
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,380
that the death of Captain Denny
was indeed murder

223
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,380
most malicious and foul.

You wish to know
the whereabouts of a certain couple.

George Wickham and my sister,

00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,380
How much are you prepared to pay?

229
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,400
Your maximum price,
if you'd be so kind.

230
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,380
I'm confident that you,
members of the jury,

231
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,380
will deliver the right, the only

232
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,380

I thought it would be
a quick detour,

236
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,380
getting here took much longer
than I expected!

237
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,380
You really shouldn't have
troubled yourself.

238
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,380
I must go where I'm needed! I have
long been a martyr to that fact.

239
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,380
It has been said my presence can
act as the most extraordinary tonic,

240
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,380
especially to the poor and needy.
How intriguing.

241
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,380
The term "miraculous" has been used,
but it's not for me to judge.

242
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,380
Indeed. I come straight
from a cousin's bedside.

243
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,380
The poor wretch has been
ill for over a year.

244
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,380
Far too much fuss and bother.
I told him he needed to decide

245
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,380
whether to live or die,
and then get on with it

246
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,380
with as little possible
inconvenience to others.

247
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,380
I'm sure he appreciated the
clarification. Where's Darcy?

248
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,400
He's in Derby, at the trial.
Then we need to talk!

249
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,380
Mr Wickham, did Captain Denny
serve alongside you

250
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:09,380
in the Irish campaign of 1798?
He did.

251
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,380
You became something of a national
hero in the aftermath,

252
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,380
I understand, for your courageous
role in fighting the French?

253
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:22,380
I did my duty for King and country,
and nothing more.

journeyed together

257
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,380
'through Pemberley woods?'

258
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,380
Yes, about half way through,

259
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,380
Captain Denny shouted for the
carriage to stop.

260
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,380
Driver!

261
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,380
'He jumped out.'

00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,380
You're on your own
Wickham, I am finished.

263
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:50,400
He was angry with my plan to deliver
my wife uninvited to the ball.

264
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,380
Denny always put
a premium on honourable behaviour

265
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,380
and to him, this was dishonourable.

266
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,380
Denny, don't be a bloody fool.

267
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,380

Come back here this instant!

00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:08,380
by the time that I found him,

270
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,380
he had been attacked
and was close to death.

271
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,380
Denny? Denny?

272
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,380
I saw someone fleeing
through the trees.

273
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,400
So, I grabbed Denny's pistol
and fired.

274
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,380
But they were gone.
I fired again for help.

275
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,400
HELP!

276
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,380
Then I realised I had to get
Denny to safety

277
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,380
as fast as I could. I tried, but...

278
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,400
it was... it was to no avail.

279
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,380
Mr Wickham, is there any reason
at all

280
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,380
for you to have been filled
with such hatred

281
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,380
for your dearest friend,
that you would've pursued him

282
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,380
into those woods
and battered him to death?

283
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,380
No! No! The very idea is insanity!

284
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,380
I loved Captain Denny as a brother!

285
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,380

00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,380
I trust you answered all questions

I do not like gossip

we make sport for our neighbours,

It was ever thus.

Darcy must publicly disown

with this sordid trial!

297
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,380
I trust he will not be giving
evidence in court?

Oh, yes, he will.

What nonsense!
Think of your good name!

00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,380
If a good name depends on turning
one's back on duty and justice,

303
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,400
then I hardly think
it worth preserving at all.

I bumped into some ladies.

309
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,380
I stopped at that lovely milliners
we have in Lambton

310
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,380
and we were having the most civil
conversation

311
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,380
until I mentioned
I was Mrs Darcy's sister,

312
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,380
at which point they turned their
backs on me and walked away!

313
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,380
I marched straight up to them
and I said

314
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,380
I wasn't in the slightest
bit ashamed of you!

315
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,380

You'll think about what I said,

00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,400
Come now, Lady Catherine!
Surely you know me better than that?

321
00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,400
Well!

322
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,380
Mr Wickham, I have here

323
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:11,380
a list of unpaid debts
from your Army days.

324
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,380
Eight pounds to one Colonel Forster,
unpaid.

325
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:21,380
Five pounds to the innkeeper of the
Cross and Sceptre in Bath, unpaid.

326
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:26,380
I mean, the list goes on...
Do you acknowledge these debts?

327
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,380
What if I do?

328
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,380
It doesn't explain why
I would kill my best friend!

329
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,380
Only the perpetrator of a crime
can truly understand his reasons,

330
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,380
and they seldom make sense to the
truth-telling, peace-loving man.

331
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,380
And therefore I put it to you,
Mr Wickham,

332
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,380
that you are neither
truth-telling nor peace-loving!

333
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,380
Mr Wickham, am I correct
that the precise location

334
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,380
where you first came across
Captain Denny in the woods

335
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,380
has never been discovered?

336
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,380
One patch of woods looks very much
like another in the dark.

337
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,380
'And I dragged Denny quite some
distance before we stopped.'

338
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,380
Yes, quite, a man who is clearly
severely wounded and close to death.

339
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,380
It could hardly have been
a soothing experience for him.

340
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,380
I was trying to get him to help!

341
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,380
And yet, as events subsequently
proved, help was on its way.

342
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,380
Wickham? Wickham?

343
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,380
I killed him!
My only friend and I killed him!

344
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,380
I put it to you, Mr Wickham, that it
was less Captain Denny's well-being

345
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,380
that was on your mind,
than saving yourself!

346
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,380
You wanted to get him
as far as possible from the scene

347
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,380
of the crime, to make sure
it was never found again!

348
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,380
Your Honour, I must object!
I beg your pardon!

349
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,380
The prosecution is indulging
in hypothesis, nothing more!

350
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,380
Mr Alveston, await your turn
to speak. Sit down!

351
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,400
Please show some restraint!

352
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,380
Mr Wickham, I'd like to bring
your attention

353
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,380
to the argument between
Captain Denny and yourself

354
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,380
at the King's Arms, before you left
for the ball.

355
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,380
What exactly happened between you?
As I have said,

356
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,380
he didn't like my plan
regarding my wife.

357
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,400
And that's the full extent of your
discussion at that point? YES!

358
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,380
No further questions, Your Honour.

359
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,380
(What's he playing at?)

360
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,380
I don't know.

361
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,380
Call your next witness.

362
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,380
Mrs Piggott of Lambton, please!

363
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,380
GALLERY GASPS

364
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,380
She wasn't at the inquest,
is this something new?

365
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:27,380
Yes, and I am afraid
it could be dangerous.

366
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,380
Mrs Piggott, you were at work
in the Kings Arms

367
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,380
the evening Mr and Mrs Wickham
and Captain Denny

368
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,380
set off in a coach for Pemberley,
is that correct? It is.

369
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,380
And would you say they were
a happy party?

370
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,380
I would not, Sir! No!
Did you hear a quarrel between them?

371
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,380
Your Honour, the prosecution
is assuming a quarrel. Good point!

372
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,380
He's blatantly leading the witness!
Will you sit back down!

373
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,380
JEERING AND FAINT APPLAUSE

374
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,380
Did you hear what they were saying?
I did.

375
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,380
They were no more
than a few feet below me

376
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,380
and I saw Captain Denny hand a
large sum of money to Mr Wickham.

377
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,380
I want no part in this.
Denny. Please.

378
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,380
This one last thing and I promise
I will be done with it.

379
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,380
I am not playing this game.

380
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:16,380
He said he no longer wanted anything
to do with it or with him.

381
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,380
He told him it had been
deceit from start to finish

382
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,380
You are selfish. Utterly selfish!

383
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,380
You know nothing, do you, of...

384
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,380
Women and what they truly feel.

385
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,400
GALLERY GASPS IN SHOCK

386
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,380
Mrs Piggott. You're sure these are
the exact words you heard?

387
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,380
As sure as night turns to day.

388
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,380
"Deceit from start to finish".

389
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:45,380
A damning description
from his dearest friend.

390
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,400
Thank you, Mrs Piggott.
No further questions, Your Honour.

391
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,380
Mrs Piggott, did you see
either of the men

392
00:26:55,400 --> 00:27:00,380
lay a hand on one another during this
conversation you overheard?

393
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,380
No, Sir. Mr Wickham would be
foolish to challenge Captain Denny,

394
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,380
as he was armed and all. Ah!

395
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:11,380
So, the fact that they were to travel
together was no occasion for anxiety?

396
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,380
They had Mrs Wickham with them!

397
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,380
They wouldn't be starting a fight
in front of a lady now, would they?

398
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:22,400
Indeed. Mrs Piggott, why did you not
give this evidence at the inquest?

399
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,380
I didn't want the whole town
laughing behind my back!

400
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,380
I don't quite follow.
Can't hear you, woman.

401
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,380
Speak up! Mrs. Piggott...

402
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,380
Please will you speak up for the sake
of the jury?

403
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,380
I was visiting the privy
when I heard 'em.

404
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,380
LAUGHTER

405
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,380
It's a proper disgrace if a lady
can't go about her business

406
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,380
without having to
talk in public about it!

407
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,380
Er, quite.

408
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,380
Well, that's quite
enough for one day.

409
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,400
Court is adjourned
until tomorrow morning.

410
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,400
Darcy! Darcy!

411
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:09,400
Mrs Younge!

412
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:18,380
Mrs Younge!
I had hoped never to see you again!

413
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,380
Then allow me to oblige
by leaving your presence!

414
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,380
This time I want the truth!

415
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,380
What's the connection
between Wickham and yourself?

416
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:31,380
George Wickham is my brother,
Mr Darcy!

417
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,380
I grew up ignorant of Wickham's
existence,

418
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,380
but when he came to find me,
we discovered a connection

419
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,380
purer and stronger than anything
else in our lives!

420
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,400
When I found out he had a son...

421
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,380
..I had to meet him.

422
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,380
May I?

423
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,400
'And he was beautiful.'

424
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,400
I'll take good care of him,
Louisa, I promise.

425
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,380
He'll want for nothing.
'Wickham wanted me to have him!'

426
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,380
You beautiful little thing!

427
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,380
'If it wasn't for that idiot mother
and Denny getting in the way!'

428
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,380
The 30 pounds,
I trust it will be satisfactory.

429
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,380
Miss Bidwell! Miss Bidwell!

430
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,380
You idiot!

431
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,400
'I could still be a good mother
to him, Mr Darcy.'

432
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,380
Please?!

433
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,400
Please?! You're asking for my help?

434
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,380
To trust you with the wellbeing
of an innocent child

435
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,380
after what you did to Georgiana?!

436
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,380
You posed as a respectable
governess,

437
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,380
so that I would place her
in your care,

438
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,380
then you took her to Ramsgate
and you threw her to Wickham!

439
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,380
He'd make a fine husband
to any woman!

440
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,380
Oh, your sister's no victim,
Mr Darcy!

441
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,380
Not with men such as you
to guard her,

442
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,380
and women such as me,

443
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:03,380
who sacrifice their lives to protect
the sanctity of high rank!

444
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,380
And I suppose it was you extorting
money from Colonel Fitzwilliam?

445
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,380
Extorting?

446
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,380
He came to me of his own free will.

447
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,380
He's a reasonable man.

448
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,400
...adequate compensation for a girl
of her type... (INAUDIBLE).

449
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,400
Wake up.

450
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,380
I spoke to Mrs Younge today,
in court.

451
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,380
It seems you two have been seeing
quite a bit of one another!

452
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,380
I saw no point in troubling
you with it.

453
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,380
Really? You're in this
up to your neck!

454
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,380
I had no idea events would take
the course they have!

455
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,380
Every decision I have made, Darcy,
was to protect you,

456
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:56,380
you'll just have to
take my word for it!

457
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,380
I'll take your word on nothing
until you explain yourself.

458
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,380
When Wickham first told me
of the mess he was in,

459
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,380
I saw the danger immediately.

460
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,380
A bastard child
of his growing up at Pemberley?!

461
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,380
You'd never be rid of the man!

462
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,380
I thought it best to deal with it,
quickly and simply.

463
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,380
I don't have some of your qualms.

464
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,380
You refer to putting yourself
at the mercy of a blackmailer?!

465
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,380
She's a woman one can do
business with.

466
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,380
She wanted to take the child,
I was prepared to pay her to do so.

467
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,380
It seemed simple enough!

468
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,380
You acted on my behalf without
consulting me,

469
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,380
yet you dare to suggest you were
motivated by concern?!

470
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,380
I think your reasons were a little
more self-interested!

471
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,380
If you mean Georgiana, then yes,
of course she was on my mind!

472
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,380
If she's to be my wife, I must
protect her from further taint!

473
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:37,380
Further taint?!
I'm not quite sure I follow!

474
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,400
I refer to her history with Wickham,
of course!

475
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,380
Darcy! Darcy!

476
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,380
I must ask you not to see or speak
to Georgiana again on any account!

477
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,380
Don't be a bloody fool!
Things are looking bad for Wickham,

478
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,380
this could be her only
chance of a good match!

479
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,380
Look, I will take her even if
he hangs!

480
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,400
HOW DARE YOU?!

481
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,380
STOUGHTON! Darcy.

482
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,380
Colonel Fitzwilliam is leaving
immediately,

483
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,400
please prepare his horse!

484
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,380
Georgiana.... What is it?
What is wrong?

485
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,380
I have done you a terrible wrong.

486
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,380
No. You've only ever done what's
right for me, brother, always!

487
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,380
I encouraged you to accept
the hand of a man you didn't love,

488
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,380
and perhaps never would.

489
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,380
I accepted his offer of my own
free will.

490
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,380
Yes. But I didn't stop you.

491
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,400
I didn't stop you!

492
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,380
Colonel Fitzwilliam is not the man
that I thought he was.

493
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,380
Elizabeth tried to warn me, but I
wouldn't listen, I would not listen.

494
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,400
I was stubborn
and blind to the truth.

495
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:00,380
Can you please...

496
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,400
Can you please forgive me?

497
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,380
There's nothing to forgive.

498
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,380
Marry for love, Georgiana.

499
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,380
Marry... Marry the person your heart
cries out for!

500
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,380
And when you have that person,
do not doubt them,

501
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,400
not for a single moment!

502
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,400
I'm so sorry.

503
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,400
Darcy?

504
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,380
I believe George Wickham to be
guilty of this crime.

505
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,400
Why?

506
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,380
Captain Denny knew of his
affair with Louisa Bidwell.

507
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,380
Their argument wasn't about
bringing Lydia to the ball,

508
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,400
it was about Louisa and the baby.

509
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,400
And when Denny jumped
from that carriage...

510
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,380
..he plunged into those
woods to warn her

511
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,380
that she'd been
abandoned by her lover

512
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,380
and he would try and take her baby -

513
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,400
possibly even reveal Wickham's
true identity, who knows?

514
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,400
But Wickham had to stop him
and he did...

515
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,380
..once and for all!

516
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,400
And if this is revealed...

517
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:48,400
Poor Lydia!

518
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,400
I think it's time
she learnt of the affair.

519
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,400
And probably best it
came from you first.

520
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:15,400
Darcy?

521
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,380
'But that's the motive that's
always been missing.'

522
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,380
And that is still no proof.

523
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,380
It all adds up!

524
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:27,380
All we know for sure is that Wickham
fathered a child out of wedlock.

525
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,380
That's still not yet a
reason for a man to hang.

526
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:33,400
Supposition or not, you know
how it'll look when it comes out.

527
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,380
The jury would be prejudiced
against him beyond repair, yes.

528
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,380
But, Darcy,
we must believe in justice!

529
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,380
Wickham has to be judged
on the evidence alone.

530
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,380
Your duty is to answer the
questions put to you as simply

531
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,380
and directly as you can.

532
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,400
Mine is to do everything
to ensure a fair trial.

533
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,380
Beyond that,
it is out of our control.

534
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,380
What about Hardcastle?

535
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,380
I don't know him as
well as you do.

536
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,380
Is he a man to let prejudice
cloud his judgment?

537
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:05,400
DOOR OPENS

538
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,380
"My best friend is dead,
I killed him, it's my fault."

539
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,380
That might not be the precise order,
but those were the words.

540
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:26,380
And what did you take
those words to mean?

541
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,380
I was looking at a man
in the greatest distress,

542
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,380
kneeling over
the body of his friend.

543
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,380
I took him to mean that if there
hadn't been a disagreement

544
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,380
that had caused his friend
to run into the woods,

545
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,400
then he wouldn't have met his death.

546
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:43,400
No further questions, Your Honour.

547
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:51,380
I must congratulate you, Mr Darcy,
on your remarkable presence of mind.

548
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,380
Here before you was a
man leaning over the body

549
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,380
of his murdered friend, sobbing that
he killed him,

550
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,380
it was his fault,

551
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,380
yet somehow you deduced that
this was not a confession,

552
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,380
but regret for an earlier argument

553
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,380
that led to the victim's
flight towards an aggressor

554
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,380
whose existence to this day
remains pure hypothesis,

555
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,380
and who for some reason
took it into his head

556
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,400
to murder a complete stranger!

557
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,380
Poaching is a serious crime.

558
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:23,380
Hear, hear!

559
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,380
If he had stumbled across a
poacher red-handed,

560
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,380
the man may have
panicked and lashed out!

561
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,380
If you believed so strongly
in the existence of this poacher,

562
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,400
why didn't you send out a search
party the night of the crime?

563
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,380
The woods were vast and dark,

564
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:42,380
and my first duty was to
inform a magistrate.

565
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,380
You didn't order a search, Mr Darcy,

566
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,380
because you knew full well that
you already had the guilty man,

567
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,400
under guard and in your house!

568
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,400
No further questions.

569
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,380
Thank you, Mr Darcy.

570
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,400
Sir Selwyn Hardcastle, please.

571
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:15,380
We know two shots were fired
in the woods that night.

572
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:19,380
Sir Selwyn, could you give us your
view on who fired them and why?

573
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,380
As the pistol in question
belonged to Captain Denny,

574
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,380
it seems to me entirely
plausible he fired...

575
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,380
in self-defence.

576
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,380
At George Wickham?

577
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,380
That's correct.
Because he felt under threat?

578
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,380
That's pure conjecture, Your Honour!

579
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:39,380
Mr Alveston, I am tired of these
unconventional objections of yours.

580
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,380
I'm merely trying to establish
an alternative explanation

581
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,380
for the gunshots.

582
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,380
Sir Selwyn, do you
believe Captain Denny fired the gun

583
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,380
at Mr Wickham in self-defence? I do.

584
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,380
At which point, Mr Wickham
dealt him the blow that killed him!

585
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,380
Your Honour, please!

586
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,380
Facts, Mr Cartwright. For all our
sakes - stick to the facts!

587
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,380
I believe it to be the case -
it's the only logical explanation.

588
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,380
Sir Selwyn, throughout the
course of your investigation,

589
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,380
have you come across any
reason why Mr Wickham

590
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,380
might want
Captain Denny dead?

591
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,380
I must defend my client,
Your Honour,

592
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,380
and ask Mr Cartwright to desist from
his constant attempts

593
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,380
to prejudice the jury's minds!
Well said, that man!

594
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,380
Enough!

595
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:21,400
Have you come across any
possible motive for this crime?

596
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,400
Answer the question, Sir Selwyn.

597
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:30,400
Sir Selwyn.

598
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:37,400
I have not.

599
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,400
No further questions,
Your Honour.

600
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,400
Mr Alveston.

601
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,400
I have no questions,
Your Honour.

602
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:58,400
Lizzy!

603
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:02,400
Could you leave us?

604
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,400
Do you want for anything, Lydia?

605
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:10,380
No.

606
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,380
You slept well, I trust?

607
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,400
Goodness! Now I'm nervous.

608
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,380
There's something I feel I must tell
you concerning the case.

609
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,380
Did I tell you Wickham
and I are going to America?

610
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,380
It's going to be the most wonderful
fun! We've had our fill of England

611
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,380
and we'll need a fresh start
once this business is done.

612
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,380
Wickham did something foolish which
I fear may come out in court.
He's always been a rascal!

613
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,400
Involving a girl... No, don't!

614
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,380
Lizzy...

615
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,400
Lizzy, I know you mean well,
but I'm not like you.

616
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,400
Surely better to hear it first from
someone who cares, Lydia? No.

617
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,380
I'd far rather hear it
from the gossips,

618
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,400
and then I can bat them away with
the contempt they deserve.

619
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,400
Wickham and I...

620
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,380
..we find our way through, you know?

621
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,400
We always have.

622
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,380
Alveston.

623
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,380
Colonel.

624
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,380
You should know,

625
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,400
the engagement between
Georgiana and myself is over.

626
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,380
I believe she is waiting for you.

627
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:40,400
She was always yours, really.

628
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,380
She knew it, and...

629
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:45,400
so did I.

630
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,400
Alveston. Alveston.

631
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,380
The jury are returning.

632
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,400
It's far too soon.

633
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,400
Have you arrived at a verdict?

634
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:17,380
We have.

635
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,400
Do you find the prisoner guilty,
or not guilty?

636
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,400
Guilty!

637
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,400
Silence! Silence!

638
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,380
Is this the verdict of you all?
It is.

639
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,400
I swear before God almighty,
I am not guilty!

640
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,380
Prisoner at the bar,

641
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:06,380
you have been convicted of one
of the most atrocious crimes

642
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,400
it is in the power of
human nature to commit.

643
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:16,380
It remains only for me to pass
the dreadful sentence of the law -

644
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:23,380
that you be taken at the appointed
time to a place of execution

645
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,400
where you shall be hanged
by the neck until you be dead!

646
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,400
No!

647
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,400
'My dearest love...

648
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,400
'..George Wickham will hang at
dawn the day after tomorrow.

649
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,400
'I can find no words to embroider
that single, desolating fact.

650
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,380
'I had to break
the news about his sister.'

651
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,380
George, I am so sorry.

652
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,400
'She's cast a dark shadow over our
lives throughout this sorry affair.

653
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:53,380
'But there's no denying
Wickham's love for her.

654
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:54,400
'There's much to be arranged.

655
00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:00,380
'I will stay close to the prison
to provide what succour I can.

656
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,400
'I'll be home to you soon. Darcy.'

657
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:17,380
Mrs Darcy. I heard
the news about George Wickham.

658
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,380
I shall pray for him
when his time comes.

659
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:20,380
Thank you, Reverend.

660
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,380
Have you heard Will Bidwell
is near the end?

661
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:25,380
No.

662
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,380
According to Dr McFee,
it's a matter of a day or two.

663
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,400
I did so want to see him
one last time.

664
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:32,380
We were once close.

665
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,380
He's kept you away, too, has he?

666
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,380
I haven't gained admittance
to his room since the murder.

667
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,380
You are right, it did start then.

668
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,380
Perhaps it affected him.

669
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,380
He's surely too young to have
a conscience much burdened,

670
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,400
but still...

671
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,380
Madam. I need to see Will.

672
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,380
Not today, he's not very well.

673
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,380
You mustn't. I am so sorry.

674
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:01,400
No, you mustn't. Mrs Bidwell, it's
important, we must speak to Will.
Please, he's extremely ill. Will.

675
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,380
Mrs Darcy, Madam,
he needs to rest.

676
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:09,380
It's all right. Will, we've
have bad news from the trial.

677
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,380
Wickham has been found
guilty and is to hang.

678
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,380
I'm sorry, Madam... Will, please!
..you'd better go now!
I would do anything to save you!

679
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,380
But do you have it in your
power to save another man's life?

680
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,380
Spare him, Mrs Darcy,
please spare my child!

681
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:23,400
Mother!

682
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:26,400
I think I do.

683
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,400
A man came here
the night of the murder.

684
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,380
It was Captain Denny,
but I didn't know that at the time!

685
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,380
I thought it was the soldier
who'd assaulted Louisa's virtue,

686
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,380
'I thought he'd come back for more!'

687
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,400
Open up, open up!
I need to speak to Miss Bidwell.

688
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:52,380
I, I felt such rage -
it was an insult to me,

689
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,400
as though I couldn't
protect my womenfolk.

690
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,400
And I wanted to teach him a lesson.

691
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,380
I need to speak to...

692
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,380
'I hit him with my stick'

693
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,400
and he fell back and staggered off.

694
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:13,380
I tried to follow him,
he was heading towards the gully

695
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,380
where old Darcy's grave was and
I tried,

696
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,400
I tried to call out a
warning, but...I couldn't.

697
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:29,380
By the time I caught up,
there was another man with him.

698
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:30,400
Denny?

699
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,380
Oh, God, no!

700
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,380
He had a gun and he shot at me.

701
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:37,400
Stop!

702
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:43,400
And I fled.

703
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,380
When Mr Wickham got arrested,

704
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,400
I didn't think it
would come to this.

705
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:57,400
I'm going to write this down,
I need you to sign it for me.

706
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:09,400
Father...

707
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,400
..I'm sorry.

708
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,400
I should've been here.

709
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:28,400
Forgive me.

710
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,400
William, forgive me!

711
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:48,400
I've led you a
merry dance, haven't I?

712
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,380
I've loved every minute of it!

713
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,380
But I've done you wrong, Lydia.

714
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:56,400
None of that.

715
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,400
It was the best day of my life -
when I met you, Wickham.

716
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:08,400
And look at all the fun we've had.
Hmm.

717
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:16,400
I didn't do it.

718
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,380
I didn't kill Denny.

719
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,400
I know.

720
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,400
No-one can say we didn't
live it to the full.

721
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:36,400
Choose the brightest,
best memory of me, will you?

722
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,400
Hold on to that.

723
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,400
Shh.
(It's all right.)

724
00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,400
The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want.

725
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:24,400
He maketh me
to lie down in green pastures.

726
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,380
He leadeth me beside
the still waters.

727
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,400
He restoreth my soul...

728
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,400
Will is at peace.

729
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,380
Wickham hangs at dawn.
I must get this to Derby!

730
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:48,380
It's night, Elizabeth,
the journey is too treacherous!

731
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,380
Even if you try,
you'll never make it on time.

732
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,380
I will take you.

733
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,400
I know the roads, Madam,
every twist and turn.

734
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:02,380
My condolences, Darcy.

735
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,400
It gives me no pleasure
to see this sad day dawn.

736
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,380
May I ask why you didn't
reveal Wickham's affair

737
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,400
with Louisa Bidwell at the trial?

738
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:16,400
I knew by that point
he'd almost certainly hang.

739
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:21,400
What good would it do to drag
your name further through the mud?

740
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:25,400
Whatever others may say...

741
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:28,400
..I'm not my father.

742
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,400
Soldiers...arms!

743
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:52,380
Madam? I need to see the Judge.
Can I help you, Madam?

744
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,380
What's going on down here.
Judge Moberley.

745
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:55,400
What's all this noise?

746
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,400
The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want.

747
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,380
He maketh me
to lie down in green pastures.

748
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:25,380
He leadeth me beside the still
waters. He restoreth my soul.

749
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:29,380
He leadeth me in paths of
righteousness for his name's sake.

750
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,380
Yea, though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death.

751
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:37,380
I will fear no evil for
thou art with me...

752
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,380
Wait! Stop. Wait!

753
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:41,380
Stop the hanging!

754
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,380
George Wickham is innocent!

755
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:45,380
By order of the court,
stop the hanging.

756
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,380
I have a signed confession!

757
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,400
Take the noose from his neck.
Well, hurry, take the noose!

758
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:03,380
Surely goodness and mercy shall
follow me all the days of my life.

759
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:07,400
I will dwell in the house of
the Lord forever. Amen.

760
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,400
Mrs Reynolds has found a new
home for Louisa Bidwell's baby.

761
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,400
Why does she have to
give up her child?

762
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,400
It's time Pemberley
began to look after its own.

763
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,380
'Dearest Jane, I'm pleased to
report that both Lydia

764
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,380
'and Wickham
made remarkable recoveries.'

765
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:00,380
Thank you.

766
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,380
Thank you, thank you very much.

767
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:05,380
I'd like to take this opportunity
to publicly thank my wife.

768
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,380
'Within a matter of hours, Lydia's
spirits were restored

769
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:11,380
'and her energies consumed with
flaunting her dear Wickham

770
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:14,380
'all over town.' Bye!

771
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:18,380
'I do wonder what America
will make of them'

772
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,380
'Louisa christened her son
George William Bidwell,

773
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:23,400
'in memory of her brother.

774
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:29,400
'Darcy says he will make a fine head
coachman to Master Fitzwilliam.

775
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:36,400
'As for Georgiana, well...it
couldn't be better news.'

776
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:52,400
Georgiana, I can wait no longer.

777
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:55,400
Will you be my wife?

778
00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:00,380
Yes, Henry, yes!

779
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:01,400
Yes!

780
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,380
Oh, those early moments of love.

781
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:22,400
We had so little time for ours.

782
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,400
Yes, thanks to my best efforts
to kill my feelings for you.

783
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,380
I very nearly destroyed the most
precious thing in the world to me.

784
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,400
Let's look to the past only
as it gives us pleasure...

785
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,400
..and to the future...

786
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:40,400
..only as it gives us hope.

787
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,400
Truly?
I can't promise it'll be a girl!

788
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,400
I must be careful!
Oh, Darcy...

789
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:57,400
..I'm so happy!

790
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:02,380
I know a million others
have said it before,

791
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:04,400
but none with such justice.
