00:00:35.916 --> 00:00:38.875
- Well, I expect it'll cloud over later on.
- Aye.
00:00:40.166 --> 00:00:42.250
What's going on at Sutton Hoo, then?
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.416
There's a lady
who's got an excavating job.
00:00:49.125 --> 00:00:52.125
- Ah, thank you kindly. Mind how you go.
- Thank you.
00:01:39.541 --> 00:01:42.166
Mornin'. Mrs. Pretty, please.
00:01:43.291 --> 00:01:44.250
Basil Brown.
00:01:45.208 --> 00:01:46.083
Wait here.
00:02:06.250 --> 00:02:08.791
- Should we take a look at them, then?
- Right.
00:02:13.375 --> 00:02:16.500
Things like this
are usually done through museums.
00:02:17.541 --> 00:02:20.333
Yes.
But when I approached Ipswich,
00:02:20.416 --> 00:02:22.208
Mr. Reid Moir said
that, with the war coming,
00:02:22.291 --> 00:02:24.291
they couldn't embark upon
any new ventures.
00:02:24.375 --> 00:02:27.458
Well, they have their hands full
with a Roman villa.
00:02:27.958 --> 00:02:30.208
- Yes. He said you were working on it.
- I am.
00:02:30.291 --> 00:02:32.416
He told me you were a difficult man.
00:02:32.500 --> 00:02:34.791
Did he, now?
00:02:34.875 --> 00:02:38.000
Unorthodox… and untrained.
00:02:38.083 --> 00:02:40.125
So that's his reference, is it?
00:02:40.208 --> 00:02:42.875
Well, I'm… I'm not untrained.
00:02:42.958 --> 00:02:46.083
I've been on dig
since I was old enough to hold a trowel.
00:02:46.666 --> 00:02:48.375
My father taught me.
00:02:49.875 --> 00:02:52.458
Perhaps Reid Moir
just wants to keep you for himself.
00:02:52.541 --> 00:02:54.916
I don't know about that.
00:02:55.875 --> 00:02:59.208
I've always had a curiosity
to see these here mounds.
00:03:00.166 --> 00:03:03.750
- Henry VIII came here to dig.
- So I'm told.
00:03:03.833 --> 00:03:06.208
Well, no record of what he found.
00:03:06.708 --> 00:03:08.125
My husband and I bought this land,
00:03:08.208 --> 00:03:10.041
with the hope of exploring
what was under there.
00:03:10.125 --> 00:03:13.708
But… Well, best-laid plans.
00:03:14.208 --> 00:03:16.791
What are they?
Would you hazard a guess?
00:03:17.291 --> 00:03:19.291
Burial mounds, I expect.
00:03:20.750 --> 00:03:23.458
We're standing
in someone's graveyard, I reckon.
00:03:24.875 --> 00:03:25.708
Viking…
00:03:27.958 --> 00:03:29.208
Or maybe older.
00:03:30.250 --> 00:03:33.666
Apparently, local girls used to lie down
on them in the hope of falling pregnant.
00:03:34.708 --> 00:03:37.083
I've heard plenty of legends.
00:03:38.041 --> 00:03:40.208
Is that why you want to dig, Mrs. Pretty?
00:03:41.458 --> 00:03:42.958
Tales of buried treasure?
00:03:45.750 --> 00:03:48.000
My interest
in archaeology began like yours,
00:03:48.083 --> 00:03:50.250
when I was scarcely old enough
to hold a trowel.
00:03:51.208 --> 00:03:53.833
My childhood home
was built on a Cistercian convent.
00:03:54.333 --> 00:03:56.791
I helped my father excavate the apse.
00:03:58.458 --> 00:03:59.916
That speaks, don't it?
00:04:01.625 --> 00:04:02.541
The past.
00:04:05.500 --> 00:04:07.458
You have rabbits, Mrs. Pretty.
00:04:07.541 --> 00:04:09.958
Yes, I am aware of that.
00:04:10.041 --> 00:04:11.500
Rabbits burrow.
00:04:11.583 --> 00:04:13.250
They're bad for excavations.
00:04:14.458 --> 00:04:16.375
I'd like to start with this one.
00:04:16.458 --> 00:04:18.625
Ah, I wouldn't start
with this one, Mrs. Pretty,
00:04:18.708 --> 00:04:20.250
not personally speaking.
00:04:20.750 --> 00:04:24.083
- Why not?
- 'Cause that dips in the middle, see?
00:04:25.666 --> 00:04:28.041
And the soil feels... That's compacted.
00:04:28.833 --> 00:04:31.000
Thieves used to sink shafts in.
00:04:31.500 --> 00:04:33.416
Robber's flutes, they're called.
00:04:34.291 --> 00:04:36.166
Anything they found
would've been melted down
00:04:36.250 --> 00:04:37.708
and sold long ago.
00:04:38.583 --> 00:04:40.458
I expect you might be better off with…
00:04:41.250 --> 00:04:42.166
One of these.
00:04:43.583 --> 00:04:45.458
But I have a feeling about this one.
00:04:45.541 --> 00:04:47.250
Well, that's your money, Mrs. Pretty,
00:04:47.333 --> 00:04:48.958
but I'd base your dig on evidence,
00:04:49.041 --> 00:04:50.625
not feeling.
00:04:54.458 --> 00:04:56.583
As for money,
would 1 pound, 15 shillings,
00:04:56.666 --> 00:04:58.333
and 6 pence a week be acceptable?
00:05:00.416 --> 00:05:03.875
- No.
- I asked Reid Moir what he pays.
00:05:03.958 --> 00:05:06.291
- That was his reply.
- Well, he don't pay enough.
00:05:06.375 --> 00:05:08.166
All right.
00:05:08.250 --> 00:05:10.541
I'm afraid that's all
I can reasonably afford to spend.
00:05:10.625 --> 00:05:12.500
Right, then. Understood.
00:05:12.583 --> 00:05:16.583
Robert, where did you get that gas mask?
Take it off.
00:05:17.291 --> 00:05:19.833
- Sorry, I didn't realize you were...
- This is not a toy.
00:05:19.916 --> 00:05:21.375
Robert, this is Mr. Brown.
00:05:21.875 --> 00:05:25.333
- Hello there, young man.
- Robert Pretty. How do you do?
00:05:25.416 --> 00:05:26.333
Who's coming after you?
00:05:26.416 --> 00:05:29.250
- Captain Laska and his gangsters.
- Oh!
00:05:29.333 --> 00:05:33.083
- Mr. Brown is an archaeologist.
- Well, I'm an excavator.
00:05:33.166 --> 00:05:35.625
- You've come to dig up the mounds?
- Well…
00:05:36.500 --> 00:05:38.541
I'm afraid not. Uh, not today.
00:05:40.625 --> 00:05:41.500
Excuse me.
00:05:44.166 --> 00:05:48.208
- Good luck with your gangsters, Robert.
- Thank you.
00:05:48.291 --> 00:05:50.750
And you, with your dig, ma'am.
00:06:09.083 --> 00:06:10.208
Ah, blast.
00:06:26.291 --> 00:06:27.541
- Mr. Brown?
- Yes?
00:06:28.083 --> 00:06:30.666
Billy Lyons. Uh, uh, from Mrs. Pretty.
00:06:31.625 --> 00:06:32.541
All right.
00:06:43.875 --> 00:06:47.000
Tell her Monday, 8:00 sharp.
00:06:48.083 --> 00:06:50.333
I won't work
for less than two pound a week.
00:06:51.166 --> 00:06:54.125
And it's too far to bike,
if you want a day's digging.
00:06:54.208 --> 00:06:56.916
You could lodge with the Lyonses
in the coach house.
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:58.333
Mr. Lyons is my chauffeur,
00:06:58.416 --> 00:07:00.416
and Mrs. Lyons
is in charge of the kitchen.
00:07:01.791 --> 00:07:05.583
- Well, I'll need help.
- I could let you have one man.
00:07:06.833 --> 00:07:08.291
Two would be better.
00:07:09.333 --> 00:07:12.041
I'm glad we could come
to an arrangement after all, Mr. Brown.
00:07:15.708 --> 00:07:18.666
John Jacobs and Mr. Spooner
are bringing the shepherd's hut.
00:07:19.708 --> 00:07:21.958
I thought it might be useful
in case of inclement weather.
00:07:22.041 --> 00:07:23.958
Oh, that's very considerate.
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:30.791
My son Robert
is keen to assist you in any way.
00:07:30.875 --> 00:07:32.916
If you find his presence irksome...
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:34.583
Oh, no, no, no. He can come.
00:07:35.750 --> 00:07:36.916
You'll start with this one?
00:07:38.916 --> 00:07:39.791
Yeah.
00:07:40.958 --> 00:07:44.291
I reckon we can forget
that larger mound, Mrs. Pretty.
00:07:44.875 --> 00:07:48.083
This one here,
that's where we'll find something.
00:07:48.583 --> 00:07:51.750
Well, shan't hold you up.
00:07:54.250 --> 00:07:55.625
Thank you kindly.
00:08:02.125 --> 00:08:05.958
If you ask me, the man should leave
Mrs. Pretty's mounds well alone.
00:08:57.791 --> 00:09:00.250
- Thank you, ma'am.
- Great, dear. Thank you.
00:09:01.083 --> 00:09:03.958
Darling, please be gentle.
You'll knock me down.
00:09:04.041 --> 00:09:06.375
I'm sorry. Mr. Brown says to come.
00:09:07.083 --> 00:09:08.583
- Now?
- Yes.
00:09:10.708 --> 00:09:11.958
Well, thank you for the message.
00:09:12.041 --> 00:09:15.666
Well, it looks like the kind of tray
you get at a butcher's.
00:09:15.750 --> 00:09:20.166
And there's some blackness here,
maybe indicating a fire was made.
00:09:20.250 --> 00:09:21.458
Who are those men?
00:09:22.041 --> 00:09:25.208
They're from the Ipswich Museum.
Mr. Reid Moir telephoned me.
00:09:25.291 --> 00:09:28.083
He wanted to see how things
were progressing, so I invited him.
00:09:28.166 --> 00:09:32.208
Mrs. Pretty,
this is Guy Maynard, our new curator.
00:09:32.291 --> 00:09:33.666
- How do you do?
- Hello.
00:09:33.750 --> 00:09:34.583
Hello, Brown.
00:09:34.666 --> 00:09:38.000
Maynard. Can I borrow you,
please, for this here corner?
00:09:38.666 --> 00:09:39.500
Jolly good.
00:09:40.375 --> 00:09:41.333
One.
00:09:42.833 --> 00:09:44.500
- You have it? Two.
- Yeah.
00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:47.000
Three! Blast.
00:09:48.791 --> 00:09:50.333
Is that the sum of your labors?
00:09:52.791 --> 00:09:53.833
Excuse me.
00:10:13.750 --> 00:10:18.041
I must urge you, Mrs. Pretty,
to support our Roman villa.
00:10:18.125 --> 00:10:19.291
War is looming.
00:10:19.375 --> 00:10:23.083
All hands are on deck
to excavate before hostilities begin.
00:10:23.166 --> 00:10:26.125
And so,
we must ask you to return Mr. Brown.
00:10:28.208 --> 00:10:30.333
I'd like him to finish what he's started.
00:10:30.416 --> 00:10:34.083
We may have found
the largest Roman villa
00:10:34.166 --> 00:10:35.166
north of Felixstowe.
00:10:35.250 --> 00:10:39.458
It's of far greater import,
if… if you'll forgive me, than this…
00:10:40.083 --> 00:10:41.083
Minor venture.
00:10:42.291 --> 00:10:45.166
- Then the choice is Mr. Brown's.
- Excuse me.
00:10:45.750 --> 00:10:48.416
Time had altered that piece of wood
00:10:48.500 --> 00:10:49.833
to compacted sand.
00:10:50.583 --> 00:10:52.583
I didn't guess its age correctly.
00:10:53.208 --> 00:10:56.166
I speculated Viking,
but I think that's older.
00:10:57.333 --> 00:10:59.583
- Anglo-Saxon.
- That's most unlikely, Brown.
00:10:59.666 --> 00:11:03.458
We should... We need you back at the villa.
That's what I'm here to say, and…
00:11:03.541 --> 00:11:05.875
And Mrs. Pretty has released you.
00:11:07.083 --> 00:11:08.833
I have said it is your choice.
00:11:10.666 --> 00:11:11.958
Well, then I'll stay.
00:11:12.791 --> 00:11:14.250
Thank you kindly, ma'am.
00:11:16.791 --> 00:11:17.625
Excuse me.
00:11:17.708 --> 00:11:19.250
Now, look here, Brown.
00:11:19.333 --> 00:11:21.583
You've made your point.
You can have two pounds a week.
00:11:21.666 --> 00:11:23.375
We'll give you a few days
to finish off here,
00:11:23.458 --> 00:11:25.708
and then,
as we're the only museum in the area,
00:11:25.791 --> 00:11:28.500
I'd carefully consider
where your future lies.
00:11:32.041 --> 00:11:32.875
Understood.
00:11:32.958 --> 00:11:35.375
Mr. Brown's been telling us
all sorts of things.
00:11:35.458 --> 00:11:37.833
For instance,
what's the most important part
00:11:37.916 --> 00:11:39.375
of an archaeologist's body?
00:11:39.458 --> 00:11:42.208
I don't know.
00:11:42.291 --> 00:11:43.250
His nose.
00:11:44.125 --> 00:11:46.833
If there's something there,
he'll know it by the smell.
00:11:53.416 --> 00:11:55.208
You're going to see your father
this afternoon?
00:11:58.375 --> 00:12:00.500
I… I'm afraid I'm needed here.
00:12:01.333 --> 00:12:05.416
- Um, please, may I get down?
- If you're quite sure you've finished.
00:13:36.375 --> 00:13:37.541
Boiled beef…
00:13:38.500 --> 00:13:42.125
On a hot day like this is unlikely
to agree with anyone, Mrs. Lyons.
00:13:43.041 --> 00:13:45.208
It was exactly like last time.
00:13:45.291 --> 00:13:49.916
Mrs. Pretty, you produce
all this acid because you're a worrier.
00:13:50.416 --> 00:13:52.625
We've spoken on this subject before.
00:13:53.583 --> 00:13:56.708
You must learn to stop worrying.
00:13:56.791 --> 00:13:59.458
Otherwise, you'll give yourself an ulcer.
00:13:59.958 --> 00:14:02.583
- Well… if that's what you think.
- Mm-hmm.
00:15:21.375 --> 00:15:24.541
Oh, you don't wanna be down there,
Mrs. Pretty. That ain't safe.
00:15:25.041 --> 00:15:27.083
Spooner and John Jacobs
are making supports.
00:15:27.166 --> 00:15:29.375
We can't continue without them now.
00:15:30.375 --> 00:15:32.416
I was reading Howard Carter's account
00:15:32.500 --> 00:15:35.000
of his excavation
of the tomb of Tutankhamun.
00:15:38.833 --> 00:15:41.625
He stood at the threshold
of the burial chamber,
00:15:42.208 --> 00:15:45.125
the first man to do so for 3,000 years,
00:15:45.208 --> 00:15:48.375
and he saw finger marks
still on the paint.
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:52.666
He say, "Time lost its meaning."
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:59.500
It occurs to me
that you might unearth human remains.
00:16:01.083 --> 00:16:02.833
Yeah, that's possible.
00:16:04.041 --> 00:16:06.333
We're digging down to meet the dead.
00:16:07.875 --> 00:16:09.250
Disinterring them, in fact.
00:16:09.333 --> 00:16:12.416
There's always coroner's inquests
when remains are found.
00:16:13.125 --> 00:16:17.750
The dead still get that courtesy,
no matter how many centuries they've lain.
00:16:18.750 --> 00:16:21.958
We can't dig down into the earth
without considering that...
00:16:29.916 --> 00:16:31.166
Brown?
00:16:38.500 --> 00:16:39.875
Mr. Brown?
00:16:42.041 --> 00:16:45.416
Spooner! Jacob! Get help!
00:17:28.583 --> 00:17:30.250
There! There! There!
00:17:31.958 --> 00:17:32.875
Come on, Basil!
00:18:19.750 --> 00:18:21.708
Careful with his head.
00:18:32.708 --> 00:18:34.958
Mr. Brown! Mr. Brown!
00:18:35.041 --> 00:18:36.291
Mr. Brown!
00:18:47.583 --> 00:18:48.791
Mr. Brown?
00:18:52.583 --> 00:18:54.750
- That's it.
- That's it.
00:18:54.833 --> 00:18:57.708
Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown.
00:19:04.291 --> 00:19:07.958
You're all right now.
You're all right. You're all right.
00:19:08.583 --> 00:19:10.416
You're all right.
00:19:10.500 --> 00:19:13.250
Into the library, Grateley.
Lay him on the sofa.
00:19:35.041 --> 00:19:36.583
Did you see something?
00:19:38.958 --> 00:19:39.833
See something?
00:19:41.041 --> 00:19:42.166
When you were gone.
00:19:46.083 --> 00:19:48.000
Something did come into my head.
00:19:48.875 --> 00:19:49.875
What was it?
00:19:50.791 --> 00:19:53.958
My, uh… my grandfather.
00:19:55.916 --> 00:19:57.000
I have his name.
00:19:58.208 --> 00:19:59.416
Basil Brown.
00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:02.083
Farming man.
00:20:03.791 --> 00:20:06.583
Taught me everything I know
about Suffolk soil.
00:20:08.125 --> 00:20:09.166
And you saw him?
00:20:10.375 --> 00:20:12.791
Oh, I saw nothing at all.
I was just…
00:20:13.583 --> 00:20:16.875
I just thought of him.
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:21.916
Well… perhaps he saw you.
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:24.250
- Excuse me.
- Mr. Brown, are you all right?
00:20:24.333 --> 00:20:25.333
Mr. Brown!
00:20:26.291 --> 00:20:27.916
Mr. Brown, you have to rest!
00:20:28.000 --> 00:20:32.375
See, Mrs. Pretty…
this one is the one you like.
00:20:32.458 --> 00:20:35.416
It's the one you wanted me to start on.
It's oval.
00:20:35.916 --> 00:20:37.375
Like a hog's back.
00:20:40.083 --> 00:20:44.541
- See? All the others, circular.
- Yes.
00:20:44.625 --> 00:20:47.083
Now,
this land's been plowed for 1,000 year.
00:20:48.416 --> 00:20:51.458
Now, supposing whoever plowed here…
00:20:52.458 --> 00:20:54.166
Gradually knocked a bit off.
00:20:54.250 --> 00:20:56.125
So, by the time robbers come along,
00:20:56.208 --> 00:20:59.625
they'd have sunk the flute
into what they thought was the center.
00:20:59.708 --> 00:21:02.041
- But it might not have been.
- That's right.
00:21:02.125 --> 00:21:04.250
East to west, that's my feeling.
00:21:04.750 --> 00:21:08.208
You say the word…
00:21:11.625 --> 00:21:13.333
…and I'll dig.
00:21:42.375 --> 00:21:45.125
My plane crashed
into the Arctic waste, you see.
00:21:45.708 --> 00:21:49.375
And when I woke up, 500 years had passed.
00:21:49.458 --> 00:21:53.250
- So, now I'm stuck in the 25th century.
- What's that like, then?
00:21:53.333 --> 00:21:55.541
Well,
the Earth is controlled by Killer Kane,
00:21:55.625 --> 00:21:57.083
who's an extremely evil man.
00:21:57.166 --> 00:21:58.250
Like Hitler?
00:21:58.333 --> 00:22:01.083
Yes, with an even worse mustache.
00:22:01.166 --> 00:22:02.000
Did the people
00:22:02.083 --> 00:22:04.583
who made these burial mounds
have mustaches?
00:22:04.666 --> 00:22:05.791
And beards.
00:22:06.416 --> 00:22:08.458
They were a very beardy lot.
00:22:08.541 --> 00:22:12.083
Not like them there Romans.
Now, they liked the close shave.
00:22:12.166 --> 00:22:15.958
The Vikings and the space pilots
are the same, really, aren't they?
00:22:16.458 --> 00:22:19.791
They explore new lands
and have battles in ships.
00:22:19.875 --> 00:22:25.250
Yeah, when you put it like that,
I suppose they might be the same.
00:22:27.583 --> 00:22:31.000
They come over all the time.
There's an RAF base nearby.
00:22:35.791 --> 00:22:37.708
Would you like to fly, Mr. Brown?
00:22:37.791 --> 00:22:39.041
Oh, but I do.
00:22:39.625 --> 00:22:43.833
All over the cosmos,
every time I look through my telescope.
00:22:44.583 --> 00:22:45.958
You… You have a telescope?
00:22:46.041 --> 00:22:48.375
- I do.
- Did you bring it with you?
00:22:48.458 --> 00:22:49.625
I did.
00:22:49.708 --> 00:22:51.375
Well, will you show me?
00:22:52.541 --> 00:22:53.500
I might.
00:22:58.333 --> 00:23:00.583
Cor! He likes to natter, he does.
00:23:00.666 --> 00:23:02.916
What was all that about space travel?
00:23:05.875 --> 00:23:08.333
Mr. Brown had an awful lot of books.
00:23:08.833 --> 00:23:11.333
Came on his bike
with a great parcel of them.
00:23:11.916 --> 00:23:13.875
Sloan says some are in Norwegian.
00:23:14.375 --> 00:23:15.916
Shall we try the green silk?
00:23:16.416 --> 00:23:18.666
- It's an old favorite, isn't it?
- No.
00:23:18.750 --> 00:23:21.708
The velvet with the lace.
00:23:46.791 --> 00:23:48.666
Mrs. Lyons hopes it will agree.
00:23:49.500 --> 00:23:51.125
How's your leg, Mr. Grateley?
00:23:51.208 --> 00:23:54.208
Oh, much better, ma'am.
Thank you for inquiring.
00:23:55.625 --> 00:23:56.875
Would you like the wireless?
00:23:56.958 --> 00:23:59.666
Yes, please.
00:23:59.750 --> 00:24:02.291
…the Air Guard
under the age of 32
00:24:02.375 --> 00:24:04.041
are now being asked to stand by
00:24:04.125 --> 00:24:07.125
for further training
as RAF pilots or crew.
00:24:07.208 --> 00:24:09.166
She's only been here 12 year.
00:24:09.250 --> 00:24:12.083
Came down from Cheshire.
00:24:13.041 --> 00:24:14.875
Then she married the colonel.
00:24:15.375 --> 00:24:19.333
He first met with Edith
when she was still at school.
00:24:19.416 --> 00:24:22.916
And on his 17th birthday,
he asked her to marry him.
00:24:23.666 --> 00:24:25.458
- She turned him down.
- Mm.
00:24:25.541 --> 00:24:28.333
She say
she can't possibly leave her father.
00:24:31.291 --> 00:24:36.541
She cared for her father
another 13 year, until he died.
00:24:36.625 --> 00:24:37.875
After 13 years.
00:24:38.375 --> 00:24:42.000
She finally accepted
the colonel's proposal.
00:24:42.750 --> 00:24:44.916
He been asking every year on her birthday.
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:46.125
On her birthday.
00:24:48.208 --> 00:24:50.250
Just after they had Robert…
00:24:51.208 --> 00:24:52.958
Her husband went and died too.
00:24:56.041 --> 00:24:57.541
Imagine that.
00:25:05.333 --> 00:25:07.250
Do any of you want to look through this?
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:12.125
- I thought we'd sit down on that.
- You have a go.
00:25:13.958 --> 00:25:14.791
That's right.
00:25:15.625 --> 00:25:19.041
I'm gonna follow you back home.
00:25:19.666 --> 00:25:21.958
Wait! Wait, for Christ's sake!
00:25:28.916 --> 00:25:30.166
Come on.
00:25:43.041 --> 00:25:44.916
Maynard! Maynard!
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:49.916
They found an iron rivet
at the burial mound at Snape, didn't they?
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:52.208
Snape?
Basil, what have you found?
00:25:56.375 --> 00:25:57.750
My goodness, Basil.
00:26:01.125 --> 00:26:04.041
- Right. Any joy, Basil?
- Coming along together.
00:26:04.625 --> 00:26:07.500
Mr. Spooner, will you bring
my tape measure from the hut?
00:26:07.583 --> 00:26:09.666
One of you best get Mrs. Pretty down here.
00:26:09.750 --> 00:26:13.375
- She's gone up to London.
- She what? How long?
00:26:13.458 --> 00:26:16.041
London, with Robert.
Couple of days.
00:26:16.541 --> 00:26:17.958
Blast.
00:26:19.166 --> 00:26:22.083
Right, boys. Here we go. Come on together.
00:26:22.166 --> 00:26:24.541
Better have something to show
Mrs. Pretty when she get back.
00:26:24.625 --> 00:26:27.416
And the crystal glasses!
00:26:29.458 --> 00:26:31.208
No, no, no. Side door, please.
00:26:31.291 --> 00:26:34.416
- Mrs. Pretty back from London yet?
- Mrs. Pretty's about to dine.
00:26:34.500 --> 00:26:35.833
I told you it was urgent.
00:26:35.916 --> 00:26:38.833
Mr. Brown, I'm sure
you wouldn't like to interfere with...
00:26:38.916 --> 00:26:40.583
It's all right, Mr. Grateley.
00:26:41.083 --> 00:26:44.041
- Is it Mr. Brown?
- Yes, darling. Darling
00:26:46.541 --> 00:26:48.541
I think you'd better come and see.
00:27:06.250 --> 00:27:07.416
That's a ship.
00:27:09.375 --> 00:27:11.041
How do you mean, a ship?
00:27:11.791 --> 00:27:14.916
Oh, well, that's a ship
that's been buried in the mound.
00:27:15.958 --> 00:27:18.375
Why would anyone want to bury a ship?
00:27:18.458 --> 00:27:21.083
Well,
I expect because that's a grave.
00:27:22.208 --> 00:27:23.375
Whose grave?
00:27:23.875 --> 00:27:27.041
Well, I'd expect
this is a grave of a… a great man.
00:27:27.791 --> 00:27:28.791
A warrior…
00:27:30.125 --> 00:27:31.208
Or a king.
00:27:31.958 --> 00:27:37.125
They must have pulled his ship all the way
up that there hill from the river.
00:27:38.125 --> 00:27:42.208
Now, they'd have put it on ropes,
and they'd have hauled it over logs.
00:27:42.916 --> 00:27:47.083
Men, horses. It must have taken
hundreds of 'em.
00:27:47.166 --> 00:27:50.500
I don't expect them to go
to all this trouble for any little squirt.
00:27:51.208 --> 00:27:54.208
Can you imagine
the send-off they'd be giving him?
00:27:54.875 --> 00:27:57.500
The songs they'd be singing.
00:27:57.583 --> 00:27:59.958
They'd have drunk Mr. Spooner
under the table.
00:28:00.041 --> 00:28:01.833
Vikings?
00:28:01.916 --> 00:28:04.375
Well, I… I think that's older.
00:28:04.458 --> 00:28:07.791
Maynard disagrees,
but I think it's Anglo-Saxon.
00:28:08.458 --> 00:28:12.250
Now, this is your doing, John Jacobs,
'cause you found the first rivet.
00:28:12.333 --> 00:28:15.041
That's right, Mrs. Pretty. He did.
00:28:17.125 --> 00:28:18.791
Congratulations, Mr. Brown.
00:28:18.875 --> 00:28:21.666
Well, you thought
there was something, didn't you?
00:28:21.750 --> 00:28:23.250
I had my feeling.
00:28:23.333 --> 00:28:25.750
That you did, Mrs. Pretty. That you did.
00:28:25.833 --> 00:28:27.208
Oh, John.
00:28:27.291 --> 00:28:29.583
- Congratulations, Mr. Spooner.
- Thank you, ma'am.
00:28:29.666 --> 00:28:32.625
We couldn't have done it
without this young man here.
00:28:34.375 --> 00:28:35.625
Psst.
00:28:35.708 --> 00:28:37.791
Robert, a ship!
00:28:40.916 --> 00:28:42.416
Thank you. Mr. Brown.
00:28:43.208 --> 00:28:45.916
Well,
there's a lot of earth to… to shift now.
00:28:47.166 --> 00:28:48.250
But who knows?
00:28:49.333 --> 00:28:51.791
I'm pretty sure it continues further.
00:29:22.875 --> 00:29:24.083
Evening.
00:29:24.666 --> 00:29:25.666
Evening.
00:29:36.958 --> 00:29:38.666
Do you realize what this means?
00:29:39.166 --> 00:29:41.125
It's going to change everything
for Ipswich.
00:29:41.625 --> 00:29:44.333
We'll be the envy
of every museum in the country.
00:29:47.333 --> 00:29:50.583
- You're gonna get wet, Mrs. Pretty.
- I'm afraid I already am.
00:29:54.291 --> 00:29:57.541
Mr. Reid Moir has kindly offered
to take charge of the dig.
00:29:59.583 --> 00:30:01.750
I turned his generous offer down.
00:30:02.541 --> 00:30:04.083
- You didn't.
- I did.
00:30:04.875 --> 00:30:06.583
What did he say?
00:30:07.166 --> 00:30:10.375
He said I couldn't keep it to myself,
which is true.
00:30:10.458 --> 00:30:12.708
I bet he blew his gasket.
00:30:12.791 --> 00:30:15.791
In the meantime, I've asked my cousin,
Rory Lomax, to come.
00:30:15.875 --> 00:30:18.833
- Right.
- I can see you need another pair of hands.
00:30:18.916 --> 00:30:21.541
He's only an amateur,
but then, so is Mr. Reid Moir.
00:30:23.750 --> 00:30:26.583
- Mrs. Pretty, you better go in the shed.
- Oh, yes.
00:30:26.666 --> 00:30:29.208
- You're gonna get very wet here.
- I will.
00:30:44.333 --> 00:30:47.916
I wanted to thank you
for your patience with Robert.
00:30:48.416 --> 00:30:50.333
He can hardly wait to see you
in the mornings.
00:30:50.416 --> 00:30:52.916
Well, keeps me on me toes,
having him around.
00:30:53.500 --> 00:30:54.625
Do you have children?
00:30:56.291 --> 00:30:58.916
No, uh, we, uh…
00:31:03.625 --> 00:31:04.708
No.
00:31:09.166 --> 00:31:11.583
The servants tell me
you've studied everything,
00:31:11.666 --> 00:31:13.208
from Latin to geology.
00:31:13.791 --> 00:31:16.833
Well, a little education
is a dangerous thing.
00:31:16.916 --> 00:31:18.916
Apparently, you've written a book.
00:31:19.000 --> 00:31:20.041
I have.
00:31:20.666 --> 00:31:23.708
A guide to astronomical maps and charts,
00:31:24.208 --> 00:31:27.500
to make them accessible to ordinary men.
00:31:28.708 --> 00:31:30.750
I left school when I was 12.
00:31:31.875 --> 00:31:33.750
Always had a hunger to study.
00:31:36.958 --> 00:31:39.541
I got a place
at London University.
00:31:41.750 --> 00:31:43.458
My father wouldn't hear of it.
00:31:56.750 --> 00:31:58.291
Would you have dinner with me?
00:32:00.250 --> 00:32:03.583
Well… thank you. Yes.
00:32:26.041 --> 00:32:27.166
Evening, Vera.
00:32:27.250 --> 00:32:29.875
Surprise for you, Basil, in your room.
00:32:31.875 --> 00:32:32.708
Right.
00:32:40.041 --> 00:32:40.958
May.
00:32:42.500 --> 00:32:44.625
I brought you some fresh shirts.
00:32:45.166 --> 00:32:47.333
About time, I say.
00:32:50.625 --> 00:32:53.208
- Are you pleased to see me?
- Of course I am.
00:32:55.208 --> 00:32:58.666
- You didn't know I was coming, did you?
- No. No, I didn't.
00:32:59.416 --> 00:33:00.583
I did tell you.
00:33:01.625 --> 00:33:03.000
In my last letter.
00:33:04.708 --> 00:33:07.250
I was saving them for the weekend.
00:33:07.333 --> 00:33:10.083
I've been working every hour.
You know what I'm like.
00:33:10.166 --> 00:33:12.750
Yes… I do.
00:33:16.458 --> 00:33:17.666
I'm very busy.
00:33:17.750 --> 00:33:21.291
- It looks like it. Nowhere to sit in here.
- There's a lot going on here.
00:33:21.375 --> 00:33:23.708
- What's that?
- I said there's nowhere to sit down.
00:33:23.791 --> 00:33:26.166
Yeah. Sorry about that.
It's all... So much going on.
00:33:26.250 --> 00:33:28.166
You got something to show me?
I think you have.
00:33:28.250 --> 00:33:29.708
I can see it in your eyes.
00:33:29.791 --> 00:33:31.208
I'm not saying anything.
00:33:33.125 --> 00:33:35.458
There's Mr. Brown with a woman.
00:33:38.166 --> 00:33:41.416
I suppose it's his wife.
You know, she writes to him every day.
00:33:46.041 --> 00:33:46.916
Come in.
00:33:50.583 --> 00:33:53.291
Mr. Brown sends his apologies, ma'am.
00:33:58.416 --> 00:34:01.375
That's all. Thank you, Ellen.
00:34:03.708 --> 00:34:06.458
A man could dig the earth
his whole life through
00:34:06.958 --> 00:34:09.375
and not find anything
like I've discovered here.
00:34:09.458 --> 00:34:12.666
- She's beautiful, all right.
- Yeah, she's beautiful.
00:34:13.250 --> 00:34:15.541
You'll have to watch your back
with a thing like this.
00:34:15.625 --> 00:34:16.625
What do you mean?
00:34:16.708 --> 00:34:19.916
Everyone's gonna want a piece
of this here ship, and this is your find.
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:20.833
Oh, May…
00:34:20.916 --> 00:34:23.291
Don't let Ipswich Museum
take your glory.
00:34:23.375 --> 00:34:25.833
- He's not gonna take...
- Or that lady at the manor.
00:34:25.916 --> 00:34:28.416
- She should be upping your wages again.
- She's supportive.
00:34:28.500 --> 00:34:30.541
- You asked?
- I ain't gonna ask for more.
00:34:30.625 --> 00:34:32.958
Well, she's very, very gracious,
Mrs. Pretty.
00:34:33.041 --> 00:34:36.125
Your heart's lost
to this Viking maiden, I can tell.
00:34:37.208 --> 00:34:38.125
Innit?
00:34:39.208 --> 00:34:42.291
Ah, May, you sure you don't want
to stay the night?
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:44.916
I'll miss my lift back.
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:46.583
Right, yeah, um…
00:34:48.291 --> 00:34:50.916
Well, thanks for coming, May.
00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:53.958
I do miss you.
00:34:55.708 --> 00:34:58.583
- I've been reading your books for company.
- You haven't.
00:34:59.083 --> 00:35:00.750
I have.
00:35:00.833 --> 00:35:03.041
Hell,
it's not much company, is it?
00:35:03.125 --> 00:35:06.000
- No, they're hard work, I tell you.
- They are.
00:35:08.083 --> 00:35:10.083
Right. Well,
it's good of you to bring my shirts.
00:35:10.166 --> 00:35:12.583
Yeah.
00:35:12.666 --> 00:35:13.541
All right.
00:35:14.708 --> 00:35:16.500
I'll read them letters tonight.
00:35:17.166 --> 00:35:18.791
- Bye, then.
- Bye.
00:35:38.458 --> 00:35:39.708
Blast!
00:36:05.208 --> 00:36:07.250
- Let me help.
- Right.
00:36:07.333 --> 00:36:10.916
Right, then.
Get around that side and take this tarp.
00:36:14.541 --> 00:36:17.791
That's… That's right. That's right.
There's a stake there behind you.
00:36:18.875 --> 00:36:19.750
Pull it hard.
00:36:22.458 --> 00:36:24.208
Where in God's name
did you come from?
00:36:24.291 --> 00:36:25.708
I rode, actually,
00:36:25.791 --> 00:36:28.083
on my motorbike from Ipswich.
00:36:28.166 --> 00:36:29.625
I'm Rory Lomax.
00:36:29.708 --> 00:36:32.333
Aye. Did Reid Moir send you?
00:36:33.208 --> 00:36:35.458
From the museum?
00:36:35.541 --> 00:36:37.416
I'm Edith Pretty's cousin.
00:36:37.500 --> 00:36:39.166
She telephoned, asked me to come.
00:36:39.250 --> 00:36:41.625
- Said you needed an extra pair of hands.
- All right.
00:36:41.708 --> 00:36:45.583
I pointed out my general lack of skill,
but she was undeterred.
00:36:46.708 --> 00:36:47.583
Right. Well…
00:36:47.666 --> 00:36:51.666
No doubt you'll hear
that my name is Brown. Basil Brown.
00:36:51.750 --> 00:36:52.750
Good to meet you.
00:36:52.833 --> 00:36:55.041
Now,
it's gonna be raining for a while,
00:36:55.125 --> 00:36:57.375
so go on and take a seat.
00:36:57.458 --> 00:37:00.666
I expect you'd, uh, be wet,
coming from Ipswich on a motorbike.
00:37:00.750 --> 00:37:02.416
- I was, rather.
- Yeah.
00:37:02.500 --> 00:37:04.708
- Just caught me at the end.
- Right.
00:37:04.791 --> 00:37:07.625
Well, I'll light the stove.
Would you like some tea?
00:37:07.708 --> 00:37:09.083
Yes, please.
00:37:09.166 --> 00:37:12.875
I think we may have found, um,
an old, uh, Anglo-Saxon ship.
00:37:13.625 --> 00:37:16.666
When this rain clears tomorrow,
maybe you can see what we're doing.
00:37:17.500 --> 00:37:19.833
- Yeah?
- How very exciting.
00:37:20.333 --> 00:37:21.750
Yeah, it's all right.
00:37:28.958 --> 00:37:31.208
- Not gonna cover it.
- Get the second tarp.
00:37:31.291 --> 00:37:33.000
- Pass me the hammer, please.
- Right.
00:37:33.583 --> 00:37:34.625
All right, then.
00:37:35.833 --> 00:37:36.708
Lift up.
00:37:36.791 --> 00:37:38.958
That's right.
00:37:45.208 --> 00:37:46.125
Rory!
00:37:47.041 --> 00:37:48.208
Hello, Spud.
00:37:49.166 --> 00:37:51.333
Arrived in the night.
Didn't want to wake you.
00:37:51.416 --> 00:37:52.333
Where's your mother?
00:37:52.416 --> 00:37:55.541
Oh, she's gone to London.
00:38:13.791 --> 00:38:16.166
Who knows
if we'll still be alive in a year?
00:38:19.708 --> 00:38:23.250
The yellow and green balls denote gas.
00:38:23.333 --> 00:38:26.125
Red denotes high explosives.
00:38:26.208 --> 00:38:29.166
Red stripes are incendiary bombs.
00:38:29.250 --> 00:38:32.708
If you are caught on the streets
during an air raid,
00:38:32.791 --> 00:38:37.333
you must know the appropriate response
to each form of attack.
00:38:38.083 --> 00:38:39.708
No, don't throw them about!
00:39:01.958 --> 00:39:03.958
I was rushing
to get here on time.
00:39:05.666 --> 00:39:07.416
Might that have affected the results?
00:39:08.541 --> 00:39:12.333
Possibly, but the,
uh, underlying condition is there.
00:39:12.416 --> 00:39:15.750
The pneumatic fever
you had as a child, it, uh,
00:39:15.833 --> 00:39:17.833
damaged the valves of your heart.
00:39:18.500 --> 00:39:19.875
Irreparably, I'm afraid.
00:39:20.583 --> 00:39:23.958
Another attack
is likely to be much… more serious.
00:39:25.375 --> 00:39:26.666
Possibly even fatal.
00:39:27.833 --> 00:39:30.791
- Is there nothing else that can be done?
- I'm sorry. I… I…
00:39:30.875 --> 00:39:32.375
I wish I had better news.
00:41:01.375 --> 00:41:03.958
Mr. Reid Moir is here, ma'am,
with some other gentlemen.
00:41:04.041 --> 00:41:05.791
They wouldn't stop to give me their names.
00:41:05.875 --> 00:41:07.625
Then they're trespassing. Where are they?
00:41:07.708 --> 00:41:09.708
- On their way to the mounds.
- Fetch them, quickly.
00:41:09.791 --> 00:41:12.166
- Right.
- Lyons?
00:41:18.750 --> 00:41:21.500
Now, I've been reading up
about the Oseberg Ship.
00:41:21.583 --> 00:41:24.375
That's a Viking ship they found in Norway.
00:41:24.875 --> 00:41:28.583
There was a burial chamber
in the center, roofed.
00:41:28.666 --> 00:41:31.250
It's a bit like we imagine Noah's Ark.
00:41:32.166 --> 00:41:34.833
Course, any roof here
would have caved in long ago.
00:41:35.833 --> 00:41:37.750
See, this line here.
00:41:37.833 --> 00:41:41.416
The ground is higher,
but this soil is darker.
00:41:41.916 --> 00:41:43.500
So you think there's something beneath?
00:41:44.291 --> 00:41:47.791
Well, we may know by the end of today.
00:41:47.875 --> 00:41:49.416
Ye gods!
00:41:51.250 --> 00:41:52.625
This is incredible!
00:41:53.125 --> 00:41:56.333
We at the Ipswich Museum
pride ourselves on our work,
00:41:56.416 --> 00:42:00.041
and I… I think you'll agree
that it's rock solid.
00:42:00.125 --> 00:42:03.458
- You… You need to stop there.
- I beg your pardon?
00:42:03.541 --> 00:42:05.791
This is a very delicate site,
and it ain't safe.
00:42:05.875 --> 00:42:07.708
Uh, not for a man of your size.
00:42:10.291 --> 00:42:11.166
Is this your work?
00:42:11.250 --> 00:42:14.625
Uh, yes. I'm Basil Brown, excavator.
00:42:16.833 --> 00:42:20.375
Well, Basil Brown, excavator…
00:42:21.166 --> 00:42:24.083
I am Charles Phillips, archaeologist,
00:42:24.833 --> 00:42:27.416
and I'm here to tell you that,
00:42:27.500 --> 00:42:30.458
as this is a find of national interest,
00:42:30.541 --> 00:42:33.791
the British Museum will be taking charge.
00:42:34.458 --> 00:42:35.458
Your work…
00:42:36.583 --> 00:42:38.541
looks, thankfully, decent,
00:42:39.333 --> 00:42:42.791
but your excavating service
is no longer required.
00:42:42.875 --> 00:42:47.166
Am… Am I to understand
that you will be personally taking over?
00:42:47.791 --> 00:42:50.791
Grimes,
I have never seen anything like it.
00:42:50.875 --> 00:42:52.666
- Quite, sir.
- Brailesford.
00:42:52.750 --> 00:42:55.416
- Sir.
- Cancel everything I've got.
00:42:55.500 --> 00:42:58.458
Find out who's free. We need Piggott.
00:42:58.541 --> 00:43:01.208
- Find us lodgings, as near as you can.
- Yes, sir.
00:43:01.708 --> 00:43:04.583
That dark soil in the middle,
C.W., looks very promising.
00:43:04.666 --> 00:43:08.250
You men, finish up,
and don't move another pebble!
00:43:08.333 --> 00:43:09.708
Excuse me, Mr. Phillips.
00:43:09.791 --> 00:43:13.000
I'm not employed by you.
00:43:13.083 --> 00:43:15.125
I'm employed by Mrs. Pretty,
00:43:15.208 --> 00:43:18.083
and I'll keep on working
until she tells me different.
00:43:18.166 --> 00:43:23.166
An ad hoc team from a provincial museum
cannot be left in charge.
00:43:23.875 --> 00:43:26.250
Mrs. Pretty must see that.
00:43:32.000 --> 00:43:35.541
John, a minute is all I need.
I… I know she'll want to hear this.
00:43:35.625 --> 00:43:37.958
- All right, all right. Wait here.
- Right.
00:43:43.833 --> 00:43:46.500
She'll see you tomorrow morning
at 10:30.
00:43:46.583 --> 00:43:48.375
She must know what I found.
00:43:48.458 --> 00:43:50.708
- Don't push it, old boy!
- She must know!
00:43:50.791 --> 00:43:51.791
John!
00:43:56.416 --> 00:44:00.000
- Is he gone, Mr. Grateley?
- It's not Grateley.
00:44:01.625 --> 00:44:04.875
I… I'm sorry for disturbing you,
but I believe…
00:44:05.625 --> 00:44:08.625
We may have found
a burial chamber in the ship.
00:44:10.666 --> 00:44:14.041
- Does Mr. Phillips know?
- I don't work for Mr. Phillips.
00:44:14.125 --> 00:44:15.458
What are your wishes?
00:44:21.125 --> 00:44:25.041
I, uh… He just informed me that,
by order of the Ministry of Works,
00:44:25.125 --> 00:44:27.250
the site must be placed under his control.
00:44:31.916 --> 00:44:33.083
Well, uh…
00:44:34.833 --> 00:44:35.916
…that's that, then.
00:44:37.500 --> 00:44:40.208
Well, I…
I can carry on for one more day…
00:44:40.708 --> 00:44:41.875
If that's what you'd like.
00:44:46.291 --> 00:44:48.458
Are… Are you poorly, Mrs. Pretty?
00:44:50.250 --> 00:44:51.500
Um…
00:44:53.458 --> 00:44:54.791
Perhaps you might, um…
00:44:55.791 --> 00:44:57.208
Might ring the bell for me.
00:44:57.958 --> 00:44:58.791
Right.
00:45:01.000 --> 00:45:03.083
He's got no right to dictate to you.
00:45:03.583 --> 00:45:05.750
This ship's only appearing because of you.
00:45:06.500 --> 00:45:08.708
Don't forget why you wanted it begun.
00:45:09.208 --> 00:45:10.958
Now, you said that was a feeling.
00:45:11.041 --> 00:45:12.875
Your feeling is right.
00:45:17.166 --> 00:45:20.875
- Mr. Brown seems to have found his way in.
- Mr. Brown.
00:45:26.750 --> 00:45:27.625
All right.
00:45:36.541 --> 00:45:38.416
Is there anything
I could bring you?
00:45:38.500 --> 00:45:39.958
Fetch Ellen for me, please.
00:47:01.083 --> 00:47:03.750
Mrs. Pretty is keen to keep you on,
00:47:04.250 --> 00:47:06.916
so we'll make good use of you.
00:47:07.000 --> 00:47:10.166
Your primary task
will be to keep the site in order.
00:47:10.250 --> 00:47:15.750
So, I want the tumulus dug back
to an area of four feet on either side,
00:47:15.833 --> 00:47:18.708
and I want those spoil heaps removed.
00:47:19.250 --> 00:47:20.083
From now on,
00:47:20.166 --> 00:47:24.708
you're not to set foot in the body
of the ship without my express permission.
00:47:24.791 --> 00:47:25.791
Carry on.
00:47:26.791 --> 00:47:28.750
Are you gonna put up with that, Basil?
00:47:47.416 --> 00:47:48.750
Hello, Mr. Brown.
00:47:49.250 --> 00:47:53.208
- My mother's got her heartburn.
- Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
00:47:53.291 --> 00:47:56.083
She has to have peace and quiet.
I made her this.
00:47:56.166 --> 00:47:59.958
- Well, that's a very fine rocket.
- Where are you going?
00:48:00.041 --> 00:48:02.250
Oh, I… Oh, I have to go home now.
00:48:02.916 --> 00:48:04.375
When will you be back?
00:48:05.750 --> 00:48:08.166
Well, uh… I'm sorry, Robert. I…
00:48:09.375 --> 00:48:10.333
I am.
00:48:14.333 --> 00:48:16.041
Uh, but, Mr. Brown…
00:48:16.541 --> 00:48:17.791
Mr. Brown!
00:48:19.375 --> 00:48:22.416
- Mr. Brown!
- It seems I'm out of a job.
00:48:22.500 --> 00:48:24.833
Phillips won't let us in his ship.
00:48:26.083 --> 00:48:28.125
His ship? Really?
00:48:28.708 --> 00:48:31.500
I thought I might take some photographs.
It could make a useful record.
00:48:31.583 --> 00:48:33.416
- Would you mind?
- Not at all.
00:48:33.500 --> 00:48:36.041
As long as they're not of me.
00:48:37.125 --> 00:48:38.750
Can't say I blame Brown.
00:48:38.833 --> 00:48:42.125
Such a decent man
doesn't deserve Phillips.
00:48:42.208 --> 00:48:43.458
Blame him?
00:48:43.541 --> 00:48:45.208
Well, he left this morning.
Didn't you know?
00:48:46.750 --> 00:48:47.875
Where's Robert?
00:49:09.000 --> 00:49:10.750
You don't have another job?
00:49:12.500 --> 00:49:15.416
I'll write to Maynard,
and he'll give me something.
00:49:17.250 --> 00:49:19.666
Did you tell Mrs. Pretty you were leaving?
00:49:20.166 --> 00:49:22.375
I thought I'd let her work it out herself.
00:49:22.458 --> 00:49:23.625
And that's the thanks she gets
00:49:23.708 --> 00:49:25.708
for giving you the opportunity
in the first place?
00:49:25.791 --> 00:49:28.708
Mark my words, May,
I won't receive any credit.
00:49:28.791 --> 00:49:31.416
- I won't even be a footnote.
- Is that why you took the job?
00:49:31.500 --> 00:49:32.833
- For credit?
- How can I stay on?
00:49:32.916 --> 00:49:35.416
Is that why you've been digging
your whole life for barely enough
00:49:35.500 --> 00:49:36.416
to cover our rent?
00:49:36.500 --> 00:49:39.708
No, May. I do it 'cause I'm good at it.
00:49:39.791 --> 00:49:42.750
'Cause that's what my father taught me,
and what his father taught him.
00:49:42.833 --> 00:49:46.000
'Cause you can show me a handful of soil
from anywhere in Suffolk,
00:49:46.083 --> 00:49:48.708
and I can pretty much tell you
whose land it's from.
00:49:48.791 --> 00:49:49.791
There you go.
00:49:56.416 --> 00:49:58.958
Excuse me.
Do you know Basil Brown?
00:49:59.041 --> 00:50:01.250
- Do you know where he lives?
- Yes, I know Basil.
00:50:01.333 --> 00:50:03.666
He lives on a farm outside of the village.
Carry on that way.
00:50:03.750 --> 00:50:04.875
Thank you so much.
00:50:27.750 --> 00:50:29.208
I found that ship.
00:50:31.083 --> 00:50:35.083
I may not be a fellow at Cambridge,
but I worked out what was down there.
00:50:35.666 --> 00:50:39.208
And Jacobs and Spooner, too,
and nobody'll remember that.
00:50:39.291 --> 00:50:40.708
You don't know that.
00:50:41.583 --> 00:50:43.458
And if you're not around
to see it to the end,
00:50:43.541 --> 00:50:44.750
there's even less chance.
00:50:46.708 --> 00:50:49.750
You always told me your work
isn't about the past or even the present.
00:50:49.833 --> 00:50:51.000
It's for the future.
00:50:51.708 --> 00:50:55.541
So that the next generations
can know where they came from.
00:50:56.583 --> 00:50:58.833
The line
that joins them to their forebears.
00:50:58.916 --> 00:51:00.333
Isn't that what you always say?
00:51:03.958 --> 00:51:05.416
Yeah, something like that.
00:51:05.916 --> 00:51:08.208
Why else would the lot of you
be playing in the dirt
00:51:08.291 --> 00:51:10.708
while the rest of the country
prepares for war?
00:51:12.291 --> 00:51:14.791
Because that means something, innit?
00:51:15.750 --> 00:51:19.416
Something that'll last longer
than whatever damn war we're heading into.
00:51:24.041 --> 00:51:25.166
Good hell.
00:51:26.333 --> 00:51:27.416
That's Robert.
00:51:28.291 --> 00:51:29.791
Robert?
00:51:30.291 --> 00:51:31.875
Robert!
00:51:32.375 --> 00:51:33.625
Mr. Brown!
00:51:34.166 --> 00:51:37.000
Robert, have you cycled all this way?
00:51:37.083 --> 00:51:38.083
You promised.
00:51:38.958 --> 00:51:39.916
May! May!
00:51:40.375 --> 00:51:43.541
You said you'd show me the cosmos.
You promised.
00:51:43.625 --> 00:51:46.791
- Good heavens! Who have we here?
- This is Robert Pretty.
00:51:46.875 --> 00:51:48.166
Robert, I'm Mrs. Brown.
00:51:49.041 --> 00:51:51.458
I bet you have a rare thirst
after that long ride, don't you?
00:51:51.541 --> 00:51:53.583
Come you here.
00:51:53.666 --> 00:51:55.958
- Let's get you a cup of milk.
- That's a long way.
00:51:56.041 --> 00:51:57.666
Does your mother know you're here, Robert?
00:51:57.750 --> 00:51:59.916
- How'd you find your way?
- She know you cycled?
00:52:00.000 --> 00:52:02.541
- Should I take your bike for you?
- Yes, please.
00:52:02.625 --> 00:52:04.916
I better find a telephone, May.
Call Mrs. Pretty.
00:52:17.625 --> 00:52:19.583
- Thank you.
- He's all right.
00:52:19.666 --> 00:52:22.666
- He's inside. Uh, come this way.
- Thank you.
00:52:22.750 --> 00:52:25.125
- We were obviously very worried.
- Yes. He's… He's…
00:52:25.208 --> 00:52:27.250
Uh, this is May, my wife.
00:52:27.333 --> 00:52:29.458
- Mrs. Pretty.
- Thank you very much.
00:52:30.041 --> 00:52:32.833
He's been no trouble. A lovely boy.
00:52:33.375 --> 00:52:35.458
Mrs. Brown has a music box from Whitby
00:52:35.541 --> 00:52:37.666
covered in all manner of shells.
00:52:37.750 --> 00:52:38.875
Would you like to see?
00:52:38.958 --> 00:52:42.083
Uh, no.
We've imposed on your kindness enough.
00:52:42.583 --> 00:52:44.166
What were you thinking?
00:52:45.291 --> 00:52:47.125
You could have been lost or killed.
00:52:47.208 --> 00:52:51.416
- Robert… what were you thinking?
- I'm sorry, Mother.
00:52:51.500 --> 00:52:54.875
Uh, Robert came to remind me
of a promise that I made.
00:52:55.375 --> 00:52:58.458
I said I'd show him the stars
through my telescope.
00:52:59.125 --> 00:53:00.041
Didn't I?
00:53:00.833 --> 00:53:02.125
Then you're returning?
00:53:03.333 --> 00:53:05.291
I am. Yes.
00:53:09.958 --> 00:53:11.416
Thank you.
00:53:22.375 --> 00:53:23.208
Morning!
00:53:24.000 --> 00:53:24.875
Morning.
00:53:24.958 --> 00:53:29.458
Mr. Grimes. I've been, uh… taking notes.
00:53:30.541 --> 00:53:32.333
If they be of any use.
00:53:32.416 --> 00:53:34.291
Why, they'd save me days.
00:53:35.916 --> 00:53:39.500
- You must have suspected what was here.
- Well, you've made good progress.
00:53:40.000 --> 00:53:41.166
As did you.
00:53:42.000 --> 00:53:43.250
Thank you kindly.
00:53:43.333 --> 00:53:46.708
- It's fine work, Mr. Brown.
- Yeah. Well, we made a start.
00:53:47.291 --> 00:53:50.541
- Phillips.
- Our excavator has returned.
00:53:50.625 --> 00:53:51.458
Morning.
00:53:51.541 --> 00:53:53.541
There's a sign
in the bottom of the ship
00:53:53.625 --> 00:53:56.125
that there could be an intact chamber.
00:53:56.208 --> 00:53:57.916
Tremendously exciting.
00:54:04.875 --> 00:54:07.208
What about events
in the wider world, C.W.?
00:54:07.708 --> 00:54:09.166
How do you think it will affect us?
00:54:09.250 --> 00:54:11.250
Judging by last night's news…
00:54:12.166 --> 00:54:14.833
I think we could be at war
in a matter of weeks,
00:54:15.333 --> 00:54:18.166
and every excavation
in the land will stop.
00:54:18.666 --> 00:54:21.916
So, it's up to us.
00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:23.666
- Oh, good lord.
- Gosh.
00:54:25.000 --> 00:54:28.250
- Jim! Billy Grimes!
- Stuart!
00:54:28.333 --> 00:54:30.416
- How the devil are you?
- Very well.
00:54:30.500 --> 00:54:33.625
- This is my wife, Margaret.
- Peggy.
00:54:33.708 --> 00:54:35.916
Mrs. Piggott,
a pleasure to meet you.
00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:39.541
Mr. Phillips, I... um,
I wanted to say how pleased I was
00:54:39.625 --> 00:54:41.291
that you specifically asked
for me to come.
00:54:41.375 --> 00:54:43.875
I know Stuart sent you my paper
on Bosnian Lake villagers.
00:54:43.958 --> 00:54:46.500
It was awfully good of you to read it.
00:54:48.083 --> 00:54:50.500
Ah, yes. Um, very stimulating.
00:54:50.583 --> 00:54:54.000
I hope
I'll be able to repay your faith in me.
00:54:54.083 --> 00:54:55.458
I have no doubt.
00:54:55.541 --> 00:54:58.458
It's just that I haven't done
much actual fieldwork yet.
00:54:58.541 --> 00:55:01.833
Uh, so I wouldn't want you to think
I'm more experienced than I really am.
00:55:01.916 --> 00:55:04.875
Ah, you have all the key attributes.
00:55:05.833 --> 00:55:06.833
Do I?
00:55:06.916 --> 00:55:08.875
- This ship is very delicate.
- Mm-hmm.
00:55:08.958 --> 00:55:12.291
One could say, it,
um, scarcely exists at all.
00:55:13.000 --> 00:55:15.083
Too much weight, it disintegrates.
00:55:15.166 --> 00:55:20.416
You're probably less than nine stone,
so I'll supervise from here
00:55:20.500 --> 00:55:23.458
while you light things
get on with the digging.
00:55:25.666 --> 00:55:28.208
Am I to understand
you only asked for me because of my size?
00:55:28.291 --> 00:55:30.000
Uh, lucky guess, actually.
00:55:30.500 --> 00:55:34.041
Yeah, thank God
Piggott didn't marry a piglet.
00:55:36.666 --> 00:55:38.208
Carry on!
00:55:49.833 --> 00:55:53.000
- How does it look to you?
- Sir?
00:56:00.625 --> 00:56:02.291
What have you got there?
00:56:23.000 --> 00:56:24.291
All right, then.
00:56:40.375 --> 00:56:43.625
- First round's on me, chaps!
- Very nice of you.
00:56:57.500 --> 00:56:59.750
Do they not have a… a double?
00:56:59.833 --> 00:57:02.250
Sorry, darling, no.
This is fine, though, isn't it?
00:57:02.333 --> 00:57:05.166
We don't…
We don't want to start by making a fuss.
00:57:05.250 --> 00:57:07.000
Oh, no. Of course not.
00:57:08.541 --> 00:57:11.375
We're so lucky to be part of this.
00:57:12.208 --> 00:57:13.041
Yes.
00:57:13.916 --> 00:57:17.166
- Yes, it's going to be amazing.
- Mm.
00:57:22.625 --> 00:57:24.625
Would you prefer this bed…
00:57:25.791 --> 00:57:27.291
Or… or… or that one?
00:57:27.375 --> 00:57:29.250
I'll… I'll take this one, shall I?
00:57:33.458 --> 00:57:37.958
You need to find a star
and identify its direction of travel.
00:57:38.625 --> 00:57:41.541
- Good evening, gentlemen.
- Good evening, Mrs. Pretty.
00:57:42.375 --> 00:57:44.583
- Hello, Mother.
- Hello, darling.
00:57:47.125 --> 00:57:49.625
Do space pilots navigate using the stars?
00:57:49.708 --> 00:57:51.583
Oh, most certainly, they do.
00:57:53.916 --> 00:57:56.916
Ten more minutes, Commander. Then, bed.
00:58:08.500 --> 00:58:09.750
I see a star.
00:58:31.750 --> 00:58:32.833
All right.
00:58:39.583 --> 00:58:41.666
- Oh, God!
- What's going on?
00:58:41.750 --> 00:58:44.333
- It just gave way.
- Get her off there!
00:58:44.416 --> 00:58:46.916
- Piggott, get her off!
- Oh, I'm so sorry!
00:58:47.000 --> 00:58:49.666
- I didn't mean to damage anything.
- Oh, you…
00:58:49.750 --> 00:58:52.083
- What you got, Brailesford?
- You all right?
00:58:53.000 --> 00:58:55.000
Sort of rusted lumps.
00:58:55.083 --> 00:58:56.916
Come on, man.
Where's your training?
00:58:57.000 --> 00:59:00.041
Uh, an amorphous mass
of corroded objects, sir.
00:59:00.583 --> 00:59:03.541
You, get your camera down there.
Photograph it.
00:59:03.625 --> 00:59:05.791
That's… That's very hot in the full sun.
00:59:05.875 --> 00:59:08.458
Oh, I'm fine. Thank you.
00:59:08.958 --> 00:59:12.250
Watch your step there.
This could well be our chamber.
00:59:13.291 --> 00:59:14.958
Some barley water, Mrs. Piggott?
00:59:15.041 --> 00:59:18.708
- Thank you. So clumsy.
- Oh, not at all.
00:59:22.208 --> 00:59:24.041
- That's a very lovely skirt.
- Oh.
00:59:24.125 --> 00:59:28.541
Completely useless.
I don't have anything more suitable.
00:59:28.625 --> 00:59:31.083
- We came straight from our holiday.
- Did you really?
00:59:31.166 --> 00:59:33.750
- Yes.
- Well, come to the house.
00:59:34.500 --> 00:59:35.916
Let's see what we can find.
00:59:39.666 --> 00:59:41.333
Is Mrs. Pretty still poorly?
00:59:44.125 --> 00:59:46.833
She says she's perfectly fine, but…
00:59:47.666 --> 00:59:49.333
…that's typical of her.
00:59:54.333 --> 00:59:56.041
Damn this weather.
00:59:57.291 --> 00:59:59.125
Losing a whole day.
01:00:00.041 --> 01:00:03.791
So little time before world events…
01:00:05.000 --> 01:00:06.208
Confound us.
01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:10.833
It's a race, an absolute race.
01:00:11.875 --> 01:00:14.666
Then you are wasting
the talents of Mr. Brown.
01:00:15.791 --> 01:00:17.625
Well, that's an excellent idea.
01:00:18.125 --> 01:00:21.875
Stuart couldn't fault his work.
Could he not be unearthing the stern?
01:00:22.375 --> 01:00:24.416
Mr. Brown isn't qualified.
01:00:24.500 --> 01:00:27.625
Well, that's just snobbery,
isn't it, Mr. Phillips?
01:00:34.375 --> 01:00:36.000
Brown!
01:00:37.958 --> 01:00:38.875
Brown!
01:00:40.083 --> 01:00:41.875
Brown, come here, man!
01:00:53.500 --> 01:00:56.041
Oh my God, Margaret.
01:01:03.375 --> 01:01:04.875
Sorry. I forgot to lock the door.
01:01:04.958 --> 01:01:08.416
No, you see,
we… we… we share that bathroom
01:01:08.500 --> 01:01:12.500
with… with four other rooms,
and, you know, I could have been anyone.
01:01:12.583 --> 01:01:15.916
Um, I could've been Grimes or Phillips.
01:01:16.000 --> 01:01:17.500
But you're not. You're my husband.
01:01:17.583 --> 01:01:20.458
Yes,
but how… how do you think I'd feel
01:01:20.541 --> 01:01:22.583
if… if one of them saw you in that state?
01:01:22.666 --> 01:01:26.125
Oh! In what state?
01:01:27.958 --> 01:01:29.750
In this state?
01:01:30.833 --> 01:01:32.625
Christ, I... Stop.
01:01:32.708 --> 01:01:35.208
You should be more careful. It's…
01:01:35.291 --> 01:01:40.416
You know, now, after… after waiting eons,
I shall… I shall go and have my bath.
01:02:06.208 --> 01:02:08.333
- Mr. Spooner.
- Right.
01:02:16.083 --> 01:02:18.541
- Morning, Mr. Piggott.
- C.W.
01:02:22.666 --> 01:02:26.083
- You might have woken me.
- I didn't like to.
01:02:27.333 --> 01:02:28.750
You made me appear late.
01:02:38.333 --> 01:02:41.750
Careful, Stuart.
You've got a delicate line now, man.
01:02:41.833 --> 01:02:43.458
- Very delicate.
- You ready?
01:02:43.541 --> 01:02:44.791
- Yeah.
- Just a moment.
01:02:44.875 --> 01:02:47.791
You have to be very careful now.
No cavalier lifting.
01:02:49.750 --> 01:02:51.125
- Very gently.
- Yes, sir.
01:02:51.208 --> 01:02:55.291
On my count. One, two, three.
01:02:56.041 --> 01:02:57.958
And we do it this way.
01:03:14.958 --> 01:03:16.083
Don't move.
01:03:19.916 --> 01:03:23.416
Piggott, look.
01:03:29.875 --> 01:03:33.666
Where did you find it, darling?
You clever girl.
01:03:35.791 --> 01:03:36.791
Phillips!
01:03:40.083 --> 01:03:43.333
- Look at this, sir.
- Look. Look!
01:03:44.083 --> 01:03:45.916
- Ah, good Lord.
- His face!
01:03:47.416 --> 01:03:48.416
Phillips.
01:03:49.208 --> 01:03:52.125
- Mrs. Pretty, there's more.
- And here. And here too.
01:03:53.125 --> 01:03:54.541
There's much more.
01:04:30.875 --> 01:04:33.791
Could you both, uh,
cast your eyes on this, please?
01:04:34.875 --> 01:04:37.500
I, uh, found it down between the strikes.
01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:40.791
I believe that's a Merovingian tremissis.
01:04:40.875 --> 01:04:43.583
- Late 6th century.
- Can't be.
01:04:44.416 --> 01:04:48.791
Viking East Anglia didn't have
a coin-based economy till the 9th century.
01:04:48.875 --> 01:04:52.291
Well,
I think that the ship is older.
01:04:52.375 --> 01:04:54.000
Mr. Brown has always said so.
01:05:05.333 --> 01:05:06.708
This is Anglo-Saxon.
01:05:08.333 --> 01:05:10.208
Piggott! Grimes!
01:05:10.291 --> 01:05:12.791
It's Dark Age, by Jupiter!
01:05:12.875 --> 01:05:14.250
Sixth century!
01:05:14.333 --> 01:05:16.583
This changes everything.
01:05:16.666 --> 01:05:20.875
These people
were not just marauding barterers.
01:05:20.958 --> 01:05:22.375
They had culture!
01:05:23.125 --> 01:05:24.125
They had art!
01:05:24.708 --> 01:05:26.125
They had money!
01:05:26.208 --> 01:05:27.833
Well, Vikings are out the window.
01:05:28.833 --> 01:05:30.875
- C.W., look.
- God's sake.
01:05:30.958 --> 01:05:32.208
Oh, good God.
01:05:34.083 --> 01:05:38.791
Brown has just shown me
a Merovingian tremissis.
01:05:41.416 --> 01:05:43.333
That's Anglo-Saxon.
01:05:43.416 --> 01:05:45.750
It's incredible!
01:06:06.000 --> 01:06:06.958
Hello.
01:06:07.041 --> 01:06:08.541
Are you camping out here?
01:06:09.708 --> 01:06:12.125
No. That's where my cousin Rory sleeps.
01:06:12.958 --> 01:06:14.583
Is he not allowed indoors?
01:06:15.666 --> 01:06:18.458
No, he…
he thinks the house is too hot.
01:06:19.083 --> 01:06:22.333
- I can imagine.
- He's going to join the RAF.
01:06:22.875 --> 01:06:25.500
- Is he?
- They're sending his papers any day.
01:06:25.583 --> 01:06:27.250
He's going to get his wings.
01:06:33.250 --> 01:06:37.000
Well done, everybody,
on a splendid effort.
01:06:37.750 --> 01:06:39.208
Brailesford, Piggott,
01:06:39.708 --> 01:06:42.083
if you'll start loading the gold
into the car,
01:06:42.166 --> 01:06:44.083
we'll get it
straight to the British Museum.
01:06:44.166 --> 01:06:45.791
I beg your pardon?
01:06:47.583 --> 01:06:50.625
Well, it's the obvious place for it,
Mrs. Pretty.
01:06:52.875 --> 01:06:55.291
London is preparing for air raids.
01:06:55.791 --> 01:06:58.958
The British Museum is currently
being emptied of its treasures, isn't it?
01:06:59.041 --> 01:07:02.250
Uh, yes,
but, um, it… it'll go to the lab.
01:07:03.250 --> 01:07:05.583
This treasure came
from someone's grave.
01:07:06.708 --> 01:07:10.041
There'll be an inquest, as you know,
and its fate will be decided there.
01:07:10.833 --> 01:07:12.333
Until then, Mr. Brown…
01:07:13.416 --> 01:07:15.000
As the finder of this magnificent ship,
01:07:15.083 --> 01:07:17.166
would you please take the treasure
up to the house?
01:07:17.666 --> 01:07:19.083
Uh, yes, Mrs. Pretty.
01:07:19.166 --> 01:07:20.666
Thank you all very much.
01:07:21.375 --> 01:07:26.000
Right, uh, gentlemen,
I'll need some assistance. Mr. Lomax?
01:07:26.083 --> 01:07:27.875
This is most irregular.
01:07:28.458 --> 01:07:30.625
It all belongs to Mrs. Pretty,
doesn't it?
01:07:30.708 --> 01:07:32.208
It's found on her land.
01:07:32.291 --> 01:07:34.375
Well, surely,
the inquest will decide
01:07:34.458 --> 01:07:37.166
whether the treasure
belongs to Mrs. Pretty or the Crown.
01:07:37.250 --> 01:07:40.333
Piggott, do you want
this treasure to go to the Ipswich Museum?
01:07:41.500 --> 01:07:43.041
Am I doing the right thing?
01:07:44.625 --> 01:07:46.000
It's someone's grave.
01:07:47.000 --> 01:07:51.000
No, that's…
that's life what's revealed.
01:07:52.291 --> 01:07:53.791
And that's why we dig.
01:08:03.000 --> 01:08:06.208
Just in here.
I think that's best.
01:08:23.166 --> 01:08:25.500
They're like emissaries
from another world.
01:08:33.166 --> 01:08:36.083 line:20%
I used to camp
with Robert's father, you see.
01:08:36.166 --> 01:08:39.083
I remember him telling me the calls
of all the birds.
01:08:39.583 --> 01:08:42.791
Now, whenever I hear nightingales,
I think of these woods.
01:08:42.875 --> 01:08:45.583
- Are there nightingales?
- Haven't you heard them?
01:08:45.666 --> 01:08:46.666
No.
01:08:47.666 --> 01:08:51.125
Never heard a nightingale at all.
Only on the wireless.
01:08:51.625 --> 01:08:54.500
There's a wonderful cellist
called Beatrice Harrison.
01:08:54.583 --> 01:08:57.750
In the summer evenings,
she used to practice in the garden, and…
01:08:58.250 --> 01:09:01.708
One night, she was playing a scale,
and a… a nightingale joined in.
01:09:02.791 --> 01:09:05.250
At first, she couldn't believe it.
She started playing a sonata,
01:09:05.333 --> 01:09:08.041
and the nightingale accompanied her.
01:09:08.791 --> 01:09:10.333
- Really?
- Mm-hmm. Yes.
01:09:10.416 --> 01:09:13.333
Yes. It happened again
the next night and next night.
01:09:13.416 --> 01:09:14.916
Miss Harrison was so excited about it,
01:09:15.000 --> 01:09:16.791
she went to the BBC
and told them all about it.
01:09:16.875 --> 01:09:17.708
And?
01:09:17.791 --> 01:09:20.000
So, a few evenings later,
01:09:20.083 --> 01:09:22.291
the BBC came
and put their recording equipment
01:09:22.375 --> 01:09:23.875
in Miss Harrison's garden.
01:09:24.375 --> 01:09:28.916
She started to play,
and they waited and, um, waited…
01:09:30.250 --> 01:09:31.125
And…
01:09:32.250 --> 01:09:35.000
And at last,
the nightingale began to sing.
01:09:37.416 --> 01:09:39.791
Went on for about 15 minutes…
01:09:40.666 --> 01:09:42.875
Rising and falling with the cello.
01:09:45.416 --> 01:09:47.333
No.
01:09:47.416 --> 01:09:48.791
- Yes.
- Wow.
01:09:49.541 --> 01:09:51.291
I know. Hmm.
01:09:55.583 --> 01:09:59.958
But…
the really extraordinary thing is that…
01:10:00.833 --> 01:10:05.000
Other people who'd been listening
to the broadcast in their gardens
01:10:05.500 --> 01:10:09.625
reported that other nightingales
also started to sing.
01:10:10.625 --> 01:10:11.958
Well, that's wonderful.
01:10:13.833 --> 01:10:16.750
Yes, it was. It was wonderful.
01:10:16.833 --> 01:10:17.791
Margaret!
01:10:19.583 --> 01:10:22.375
- Come on!
- All right. Hmm.
01:10:26.583 --> 01:10:29.416
Well… good night.
01:10:31.875 --> 01:10:34.291
I shall listen out
for cellos in the woods.
01:10:39.041 --> 01:10:40.083
"Cellos."
01:10:58.333 --> 01:11:01.500
- Here we are, chaps.
- All right.
01:11:01.583 --> 01:11:03.666
Well,
we are unburying a legend.
01:11:03.750 --> 01:11:06.166
- Beowulf.
- Arthur, King of the Britons.
01:11:06.250 --> 01:11:07.291
Cheers.
01:11:07.375 --> 01:11:11.291
Talk about Dark Ages.
I can hardly see my pint.
01:11:11.375 --> 01:11:12.750
What actually is that?
01:11:12.833 --> 01:11:15.083
It's the,
uh, trial blackouts, C.W.
01:11:16.416 --> 01:11:19.875
So Germans will be coming by air
this time, will they?
01:11:20.791 --> 01:11:22.916
Last time, they came by the river.
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:24.250
In AD 600.
01:11:26.958 --> 01:11:29.708
You know, I'm…
It's been a big day. I'm quite done in.
01:11:29.791 --> 01:11:31.625
Um, will you all excuse me?
01:11:31.708 --> 01:11:34.833
- Aw.
- Well done, Mrs. P, on a marvelous find.
01:11:34.916 --> 01:11:36.791
Yes.
Cheers to your clever wife!
01:11:36.875 --> 01:11:39.291
- Yeah. No, I'll come with you, darling.
- No.
01:11:39.375 --> 01:11:42.625
No, no. Um, surely you want to celebrate.
01:11:42.708 --> 01:11:47.583
- Stay for another, Piggott.
- My round. Set them up again, would you?
01:11:47.666 --> 01:11:52.291
I say, C.W., ask him
if he'll take a Merovingian tremissis.
01:11:54.625 --> 01:11:56.458
…the press campaign,
01:11:56.541 --> 01:12:00.416
the menacing statements of the statesmen
leading the policy of Germany,
01:12:00.916 --> 01:12:03.791
the systematic provocation
of frontier incidents,
01:12:03.875 --> 01:12:06.958
and finally,
the constantly increasing concentrations
01:12:07.041 --> 01:12:08.541
of mobilized armed forces
01:12:08.625 --> 01:12:13.000
at the Polish frontiers
constitute an obvious proof of this.
01:12:13.083 --> 01:12:16.208
A Labour deputation called on
the Prime Minister last night,
01:12:16.291 --> 01:12:20.083
requesting the immediate evacuation
of women, children, and cripples
01:12:20.166 --> 01:12:22.041
as precaution
against the sudden outbreak of war.
01:12:22.125 --> 01:12:25.083
He'll find Buck Rogers
if anybody can.
01:12:28.791 --> 01:12:30.875
Get the guards, you fools!
01:12:30.958 --> 01:12:33.500
If they get away, I'll put every man
of you in the robot battalion!
01:12:36.291 --> 01:12:37.500
Not yet.
01:12:39.625 --> 01:12:41.333
Not yet.
01:12:45.375 --> 01:12:51.125
Darling, C.W. wants me to take
some of the corroded iron to the lab.
01:12:51.208 --> 01:12:53.000
Uh, we think it might be fragmented armor,
01:12:53.083 --> 01:12:55.875
and I… I badly want
to start cleaning it up. So…
01:12:57.666 --> 01:12:58.666
Am I to come with you?
01:12:58.750 --> 01:13:03.458
No, because C.W. needs
all the hands he can get here, so, uh…
01:13:03.541 --> 01:13:05.500
And he's very pleased with you.
01:13:05.583 --> 01:13:07.041
- Is he?
- Mm.
01:13:07.875 --> 01:13:11.958
Uh, so I'm taking Brailesford
because the lab's really his thing.
01:13:12.041 --> 01:13:15.375
- You know.
- Ah. Oh.
01:13:16.250 --> 01:13:18.333
You're going to have
to be a brick about it, Margaret.
01:13:18.416 --> 01:13:19.291
Peggy.
01:13:21.083 --> 01:13:22.250
My name's Peggy.
01:13:39.125 --> 01:13:42.666
I'll… I'll…
I'll miss you very much, Peggy.
01:13:47.583 --> 01:13:49.333
Sorry to take him away from you.
01:13:56.250 --> 01:13:58.500
It was very kind of you
to invite me, Mrs. Pretty.
01:13:58.583 --> 01:14:01.375
You can't possibly stay
in that pub without your husband.
01:14:01.458 --> 01:14:03.791
Mr. Phillips
would bore you quite to death.
01:14:04.416 --> 01:14:08.208
Um, have you developed any
of your photographs yet, Mr. Lomax?
01:14:08.291 --> 01:14:12.041
I've made a start. I've got a mountain
to do, and I better get through them.
01:14:12.125 --> 01:14:13.916
I could get my papers any day.
01:14:14.541 --> 01:14:16.791
Rory has been accepted into the RAF.
01:14:18.000 --> 01:14:19.541
Should I congratulate you?
01:14:20.041 --> 01:14:22.625
I don't know. Cousin Edith didn't.
01:14:26.333 --> 01:14:27.416
This looks delicious.
01:14:30.041 --> 01:14:31.125
Bon appétit.
01:14:32.583 --> 01:14:35.083
Don't be too long, now, darling.
It's late.
01:14:35.166 --> 01:14:37.875
And now,
that's a partial eclipse of the moon.
01:14:38.375 --> 01:14:39.833
And don't run.
01:14:39.916 --> 01:14:40.833
Oh, dear.
01:14:40.916 --> 01:14:42.083
Wait for us.
01:14:42.166 --> 01:14:46.333
- Isn't that a bad omen?
- Well, they used to think so.
01:14:49.666 --> 01:14:52.208
It does make you feel
the gods are angry.
01:14:52.291 --> 01:14:54.333
The people who buried that ship…
01:14:55.958 --> 01:14:57.291
What did they believe?
01:14:57.916 --> 01:15:01.625
Well… they were sailing somewhere,
weren't they?
01:15:02.875 --> 01:15:06.083
Down to the underworld or up to the stars.
01:15:08.666 --> 01:15:10.541
Wherever we go when we die.
01:15:14.125 --> 01:15:17.083
So we're rather coming
to the dregs, aren't we?
01:15:17.916 --> 01:15:20.000
The coroner has been in touch.
01:15:21.000 --> 01:15:24.416
An inquest has been called for Friday,
and your presence is required.
01:15:26.541 --> 01:15:29.458
There's been quite
a lot of public interest in our ship.
01:15:29.541 --> 01:15:32.541
So afterwards,
I've invited everyone to come and see it.
01:15:32.625 --> 01:15:34.208
Uh… everyone?
01:15:34.916 --> 01:15:38.125
The villagers are coming
and my friends from the county.
01:15:38.791 --> 01:15:44.083
May I remind you
just how fragile this site is?
01:15:45.291 --> 01:15:48.541
Please feel free
to invite your families and friends.
01:15:50.125 --> 01:15:51.291
Mrs. Pretty…
01:15:56.708 --> 01:15:57.916
Good God.
01:15:59.750 --> 01:16:00.833
Robert?
01:16:14.958 --> 01:16:18.041
Don't let anyone swim!
It's tidal. The current is fierce!
01:16:18.125 --> 01:16:19.000
Darling.
01:17:39.291 --> 01:17:42.416
They train these boys
on rickety planes from the Great War.
01:17:44.125 --> 01:17:46.000
My husband said,
"If you want your son to die,
01:17:46.083 --> 01:17:48.000
then let him join the Air Force."
01:17:50.166 --> 01:17:52.875
They say
this war will be fought in the air.
01:17:54.583 --> 01:17:56.166
What happened, Mother?
01:17:56.958 --> 01:17:58.375
Is he all right?
01:17:59.083 --> 01:18:02.083
- I must get Robert up to the house.
- Shall I take him for you?
01:18:02.166 --> 01:18:05.791
- He won't want to go.
- Uh, I'll ask him to look after me.
01:18:07.458 --> 01:18:08.583
Thank you.
01:18:09.083 --> 01:18:09.916
Robert!
01:18:10.625 --> 01:18:13.416
- Yes?
- I… I feel rather faint.
01:18:14.166 --> 01:18:17.541
Oh, well, when I feel faint,
I have a good lie-down
01:18:17.625 --> 01:18:18.958
and a big glass of water.
01:18:19.083 --> 01:18:21.041
- Do you?
- And that does the trick.
01:18:21.125 --> 01:18:22.166
That's what I need.
01:18:22.250 --> 01:18:24.083
- Will you take my hand?
- Sure.
01:19:04.083 --> 01:19:08.916
His name was David Atkinson.
It was his second solo flight.
01:19:10.750 --> 01:19:15.708
Police and the coroner are here.
I brought you some dry things.
01:19:19.583 --> 01:19:22.875
I've got some coffee
back at my tent.
01:19:26.458 --> 01:19:27.750
Would you like some?
01:19:31.458 --> 01:19:33.000
My father drowned…
01:19:34.458 --> 01:19:36.000
On a holiday in Cornwall.
01:19:36.541 --> 01:19:38.541
He was taken by the current.
01:19:40.000 --> 01:19:41.708
- I'm sorry.
- Oh, no.
01:19:41.791 --> 01:19:43.333
It was a long time ago.
01:19:44.583 --> 01:19:45.958
He had epilepsy.
01:19:49.833 --> 01:19:51.750
So, what drew you to photography?
01:19:52.250 --> 01:19:54.083
Oh, I suppose it's, um…
01:19:54.166 --> 01:19:57.541
It's just a way
of trying to fix things as they…
01:19:58.291 --> 01:19:59.208
As they go past.
01:19:59.291 --> 01:20:02.833
Keep what's vital from being lost.
01:20:03.916 --> 01:20:07.583
My father once gave me an old coin…
01:20:09.083 --> 01:20:12.166
And he said it was
from the time of Caesar Augustus.
01:20:13.875 --> 01:20:18.583
And I knew the story from the Bible
where Jesus showed the disciples a coin.
01:20:18.666 --> 01:20:21.541
"Render unto Caesar
the things that are Caesar's."
01:20:23.958 --> 01:20:25.625
Yes.
01:20:26.208 --> 01:20:27.583
And I…
01:20:27.666 --> 01:20:31.083
…well, I… I became convinced
that the coin I had
01:20:31.166 --> 01:20:34.125
was the one that Jesus
had actually shown the disciples.
01:20:34.625 --> 01:20:38.750
I used to marvel that I could hold it.
01:20:43.125 --> 01:20:44.750
What happened to your coin?
01:20:54.083 --> 01:20:56.041
I wear it.
01:21:02.041 --> 01:21:03.750
I thought it might bring me luck.
01:21:06.666 --> 01:21:07.583
And has it?
01:21:16.666 --> 01:21:18.041
If 1,000 years…
01:21:20.000 --> 01:21:21.875
Were to pass in an instant…
01:21:25.791 --> 01:21:27.333
What would be left of us?
01:21:29.458 --> 01:21:30.291
This.
01:21:34.333 --> 01:21:35.833
And parts of your watch.
01:21:36.791 --> 01:21:37.916
Torch.
01:21:39.833 --> 01:21:41.125
Fragments of the mug.
01:21:42.958 --> 01:21:47.583
But every last scrap
of you and I would… disappear.
01:21:48.833 --> 01:21:50.666
Listen.
01:21:50.750 --> 01:21:51.583
What?
01:22:07.375 --> 01:22:09.500
The pilot died, didn't he?
01:22:10.250 --> 01:22:11.666
Yes, darling.
01:22:16.875 --> 01:22:17.833
Wait.
01:22:19.791 --> 01:22:22.666
Rory won't die, will he?
01:22:23.166 --> 01:22:24.166
I'm sorry.
01:22:24.958 --> 01:22:25.916
No.
01:22:35.666 --> 01:22:36.791
You won't die?
01:23:05.791 --> 01:23:06.833
Mrs. Pretty?
01:23:10.458 --> 01:23:12.833
- Are you unwell?
- I've, um…
01:23:12.916 --> 01:23:16.791
- Perhaps you might lead me to my room.
- Yes, of course. Of course.
01:23:17.625 --> 01:23:21.208
Are you all right?
01:23:21.291 --> 01:23:23.083
Yes! Yes.
01:23:23.166 --> 01:23:25.541
- Should I call a doctor?
- No, no, no. It's…
01:23:25.625 --> 01:23:27.208
It's heartburn. It's…
01:23:27.291 --> 01:23:29.875
No, I don't want to wake him.
01:23:32.666 --> 01:23:35.750
Mrs. Pretty, are you all right?
01:23:37.208 --> 01:23:38.541
I'm such a bore.
01:23:39.500 --> 01:23:42.791
Would you mind…
Would you mind getting me some milk?
01:23:42.875 --> 01:23:44.041
- Yes.
- Thank you.
01:23:44.125 --> 01:23:46.416
- Are you sure?
- Yes, thank you.
01:23:50.250 --> 01:23:52.291
Robert! Darling…
01:23:58.958 --> 01:24:00.833
Oh! Robert.
01:24:01.541 --> 01:24:03.333
You all right?
01:24:05.875 --> 01:24:07.083
Robert?
01:24:07.166 --> 01:24:11.250
I know she's sick. I know it!
There's nothing I can do!
01:24:11.333 --> 01:24:14.458
Why is there nothing I can do?
I should be able to make her better.
01:24:14.541 --> 01:24:16.833
You do. You do make her better.
01:24:17.458 --> 01:24:20.125
No, she's worse. She is, I can see it!
01:24:23.916 --> 01:24:24.958
She is.
01:24:29.250 --> 01:24:30.958
When… When my father died…
01:24:33.750 --> 01:24:36.500
…everyone said
I had to look after my mother.
01:24:37.041 --> 01:24:39.875
And I failed.
01:24:39.958 --> 01:24:41.291
I failed.
01:24:45.750 --> 01:24:46.625
Robert…
01:24:50.916 --> 01:24:51.958
…we all fail.
01:24:54.375 --> 01:24:55.458
Every day.
01:24:56.916 --> 01:24:59.708
There are some things
we just can't succeed at…
01:25:01.208 --> 01:25:03.833
No matter how hard we try.
01:25:09.500 --> 01:25:11.750
I know it's not what you want to hear.
01:25:12.416 --> 01:25:15.000
I… I'm stronger than she thinks I am.
01:25:16.125 --> 01:25:19.583
I know. Perhaps you'll show her.
01:25:22.791 --> 01:25:23.625
Now…
01:25:24.666 --> 01:25:27.708
We should get you inside, Robert.
01:25:28.791 --> 01:25:29.708
Come on.
01:25:30.666 --> 01:25:33.083
I think it's time for your bed, you know.
Come on, then.
01:25:45.458 --> 01:25:47.708
Apparently,
there's a whole convoy
01:25:47.791 --> 01:25:49.333
of hacks on the way.
01:25:50.208 --> 01:25:54.541 line:20%
I already have some joker
from the Sunday Mirror asking me
01:25:54.625 --> 01:25:57.083
if the ship is still seaworthy.
01:25:57.166 --> 01:26:01.416
So, what happens to the treasure?
That's the real question.
01:26:01.500 --> 01:26:03.333
Germany has invaded Poland…
01:26:03.416 --> 01:26:04.666
Have you seen my wife?
01:26:04.750 --> 01:26:06.166
…and has bombed many towns.
01:26:06.250 --> 01:26:10.625
Orders completing the mobilization
of the Navy, Army, and Air Force
01:26:10.708 --> 01:26:14.458
were signed by the King at a meeting
this afternoon of the privy council.
01:26:14.958 --> 01:26:16.833
The King and Queen decided...
01:26:16.916 --> 01:26:18.125
Well.
01:26:19.750 --> 01:26:20.875
Here we go, then.
01:26:20.958 --> 01:26:24.958
The Queen drove from the palace to visit
the Westminister ARP headquarters.
01:26:54.708 --> 01:26:56.250
I've just received this.
01:27:00.416 --> 01:27:03.041
I'm to report
to RAF Martlesham this morning.
01:27:03.750 --> 01:27:05.166
There's the inquest.
01:27:05.250 --> 01:27:09.625
It's my medical assessment.
I can't… I can't bunk it. Sorry.
01:27:09.708 --> 01:27:13.166
I put some photographs
in the dining room for your guests.
01:27:14.333 --> 01:27:16.333
Rory, I'm telling you
in no uncertain terms
01:27:16.416 --> 01:27:17.833
that you cannot possibly die.
01:27:19.000 --> 01:27:22.625
I'm saying this most seriously.
Don't you dare put yourself in danger.
01:27:24.791 --> 01:27:29.000
Well… I'm not sure
I shall have much choice.
01:27:30.375 --> 01:27:32.083
Robert is going to need you.
01:27:34.416 --> 01:27:35.666
Do you understand?
01:27:36.416 --> 01:27:37.875
Good morning, Robert.
01:27:38.416 --> 01:27:41.458
- Today's the day.
- I want to take my mother sailing.
01:27:41.541 --> 01:27:43.333
I don't think
that ship is sailing anywhere.
01:27:43.416 --> 01:27:45.708
You know, it's just compacted sand.
01:27:46.375 --> 01:27:49.291
There's nothing holding it, except time.
01:27:49.375 --> 01:27:52.916
- That won't matter. Not where we're going.
- Now, where's that, then?
01:27:53.416 --> 01:27:57.375
- Will you come?
- Well, if I'm invited, I'll come.
01:27:59.625 --> 01:28:00.833
- Morning.
- Hello.
01:28:03.833 --> 01:28:04.916
Those for me?
01:28:05.000 --> 01:28:07.875
No, I'm looking for my wife.
01:28:09.000 --> 01:28:10.958
Well, perhaps you'd say goodbye for me.
01:28:11.958 --> 01:28:13.375
I've been called up.
01:28:15.166 --> 01:28:16.250
Of course.
01:28:17.333 --> 01:28:19.500
Well, best of British.
01:28:20.000 --> 01:28:21.458
Stuart.
01:28:22.291 --> 01:28:23.708
I… I bought you these.
01:28:26.083 --> 01:28:26.916
How lovely.
01:28:32.250 --> 01:28:35.583
Um, Lomax was just telling me
that he's been called up.
01:28:41.250 --> 01:28:43.625
- Uh, well, it…
- Um…
01:28:44.791 --> 01:28:45.958
Well, I…
01:28:46.958 --> 01:28:49.250
Uh, I'd better go. Goodbye.
01:29:13.458 --> 01:29:15.458
According to an official telegram,
01:29:15.541 --> 01:29:19.125
Warsaw has been bombed six times today.
01:29:20.000 --> 01:29:23.291
The telegram adds that fighting
of a most serious nature continues
01:29:23.375 --> 01:29:24.875
on the whole length of the front.
01:29:24.958 --> 01:29:27.125
We're in for another bloody mess.
01:29:27.750 --> 01:29:30.291
Oh, here we go.
Did you hear the results?
01:29:33.666 --> 01:29:36.291
- I just want a quick photo!
- Mrs. Pretty!
01:29:36.375 --> 01:29:37.666
Please, make way.
01:29:41.916 --> 01:29:43.458
Make way, please.
01:29:45.791 --> 01:29:48.208
- Do you want me in the car with you?
- Yes.
01:29:48.291 --> 01:29:49.750
Maynard! Maynard!
01:29:50.500 --> 01:29:53.958
Maynard? Can you make sure
my wife gets in the house?
01:29:57.666 --> 01:30:02.125
I… I hope I have
the opportunity to speak to you later.
01:30:03.833 --> 01:30:06.000
- Mrs. Pretty?
- Mrs. Pretty!
01:30:28.750 --> 01:30:31.083
I'm terribly sorry.
01:30:38.791 --> 01:30:41.291
Thank you. Thank you.
01:30:42.291 --> 01:30:47.333
These people
were not savage warriors.
01:30:48.291 --> 01:30:49.750
These… These… These were…
01:30:49.833 --> 01:30:54.708
These were sophisticated people
with incredible artistry.
01:30:56.708 --> 01:31:00.375
The Dark Ages are no longer dark.
01:31:10.791 --> 01:31:12.666
This is sherry.
I suppose it's sherry, is it?
01:31:12.750 --> 01:31:13.875
I don't know.
01:31:14.958 --> 01:31:17.291
Should we drink it now,
or is there going to be a toast?
01:31:17.375 --> 01:31:18.958
What's everyone else doing?
01:31:25.708 --> 01:31:29.333
The artifacts discovered here
have caused a national sensation.
01:31:30.333 --> 01:31:31.708
You must all know by now
01:31:31.791 --> 01:31:34.708
that they were recovered
from a chamber in the middle of a ship…
01:31:35.500 --> 01:31:39.291
A burial ship, engineered from oak.
01:31:40.750 --> 01:31:44.333
In my opinion, the greatest
and most beautiful treasure of all.
01:31:45.708 --> 01:31:49.125
Ninety feet long, lying east to west.
01:31:50.541 --> 01:31:53.625
Found and excavated by Mr. Basil Brown.
01:31:55.000 --> 01:31:56.333
- To Basil!
- Mr. Brown!
01:32:16.041 --> 01:32:17.208
I'm terribly sorry.
01:32:19.833 --> 01:32:23.583
I thought you'd be pleased
with the verdict.
01:32:30.791 --> 01:32:32.166
We die.
01:32:34.625 --> 01:32:36.541
We die and we decay.
01:32:38.375 --> 01:32:39.791
We don't live on.
01:32:43.958 --> 01:32:45.833
I'm not sure I agree.
01:32:47.250 --> 01:32:50.708
From the first human handprint
on a cave wall…
01:32:51.833 --> 01:32:55.208
We're part of something continuous.
01:32:56.500 --> 01:32:59.916
So, we… don't really die.
01:33:30.833 --> 01:33:34.041
Rory put these out this morning.
01:33:35.666 --> 01:33:37.333
It completely slipped my mind.
01:33:52.500 --> 01:33:53.500
Sit down.
01:34:00.541 --> 01:34:03.708
I'm sure
work like yours is very sustaining…
01:34:05.458 --> 01:34:06.916
But it's not enough.
01:34:10.416 --> 01:34:11.875
Life is very fleeting.
01:34:13.583 --> 01:34:14.666
I've learnt that.
01:34:16.041 --> 01:34:18.166
It has moments you should seize.
01:34:25.041 --> 01:34:28.208
It could not be a better result,
Mrs. Pretty.
01:34:28.791 --> 01:34:30.541
The whole of Suffolk
has been on your side.
01:34:30.625 --> 01:34:32.666
- Yes.
- I saw you in her car.
01:34:33.958 --> 01:34:36.666
Did she mention her intentions?
01:34:36.750 --> 01:34:39.833
- About the tea?
- About the treasure, man.
01:34:39.916 --> 01:34:42.166
Yes, what's she planning?
01:34:42.250 --> 01:34:44.416
We hope that you'll agree
that the Ipswich Museum
01:34:44.500 --> 01:34:45.541
is the perfect place for...
01:34:45.625 --> 01:34:49.041
- Can we talk another time? Excuse me.
- Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. Yes.
01:34:49.125 --> 01:34:51.000
She trusts you, man.
01:34:51.083 --> 01:34:52.791
Don't let her give it to Ipswich.
01:34:53.416 --> 01:34:55.541
The British Museum would buy everything.
01:34:55.625 --> 01:34:59.625
It's priceless, of course,
but she'll have to be reasonable.
01:34:59.708 --> 01:35:01.916
Are you asking me to plead your case?
01:35:03.583 --> 01:35:06.166
Have some lemon drizzle cake,
Mr. Phillips.
01:35:06.250 --> 01:35:07.750
It is most refreshing.
01:35:09.541 --> 01:35:12.500
Thank you so much for what you said.
I could have cheered.
01:35:16.583 --> 01:35:18.958
My son has formed a strong attachment.
01:35:19.625 --> 01:35:21.541
Basil's very fond of him, too.
01:35:23.833 --> 01:35:26.291
Perhaps you might let him visit you
from time to time.
01:35:27.333 --> 01:35:28.333
Of course.
01:35:29.166 --> 01:35:30.541
We'd be glad to.
01:35:36.375 --> 01:35:38.333
- Back in a tick.
- Right.
01:35:44.041 --> 01:35:47.041
C.W.'s suggesting
we make a move to the ball.
01:35:48.583 --> 01:35:52.291
Hmm. Well, I think
that you should go on…
01:35:52.791 --> 01:35:54.125
…uh, without me.
01:35:55.041 --> 01:35:56.000
So, will…
01:35:56.791 --> 01:35:57.875
Will you follow us?
01:36:01.208 --> 01:36:02.291
I…
01:36:03.416 --> 01:36:04.625
I don't think so.
01:36:10.791 --> 01:36:11.750
No.
01:36:13.291 --> 01:36:17.000
We both have our own paths
to, um, follow, don't we?
01:36:17.083 --> 01:36:19.708
And I've seen you when you're happy.
01:36:20.625 --> 01:36:21.916
You're rather beautiful.
01:36:22.583 --> 01:36:24.500
I'm happy with you.
01:36:29.666 --> 01:36:32.166
I could… I could learn to be.
01:36:34.000 --> 01:36:36.250
I think that would be an awful shame.
01:36:36.833 --> 01:36:38.833
Stuart! Shall we wait?
01:36:40.250 --> 01:36:42.208
Let's… Let's go. Come on.
01:36:44.416 --> 01:36:45.333
Go on.
01:36:54.250 --> 01:36:55.333
Go on.
01:37:26.458 --> 01:37:28.708
May…
01:37:29.208 --> 01:37:32.583
That site, it needs to be made safe
for the future,
01:37:32.666 --> 01:37:35.166
so it… it don't further decay. So…
01:37:36.541 --> 01:37:38.208
That's another week's work.
01:37:40.208 --> 01:37:43.041
You say your goodbyes to the old girl.
01:37:44.416 --> 01:37:45.958
Do you take care of her.
01:37:52.375 --> 01:37:54.458
You… You don't want to stay the night?
01:37:55.125 --> 01:37:57.041
I'll see you next week.
01:38:13.208 --> 01:38:15.458
I'll line the hull with hessian…
01:38:16.583 --> 01:38:19.500
And cover that
with a… a layer of branches…
01:38:20.916 --> 01:38:23.000
To protect it
from the weight of the earth.
01:38:23.083 --> 01:38:25.083
All this soil's got to go back in.
01:38:26.708 --> 01:38:28.250
Leave it as we found it.
01:38:30.708 --> 01:38:33.208
I'm giving the treasure
to the British Museum.
01:38:35.166 --> 01:38:36.375
As a gift.
01:38:39.250 --> 01:38:42.625
It should be where the greatest number
of people can freely see it.
01:38:45.333 --> 01:38:46.750
I haven't told them yet.
01:38:48.041 --> 01:38:49.500
I wanted to tell you.
01:38:50.666 --> 01:38:53.208
Well, that's a…
That's a hell of a big gift.
01:38:53.291 --> 01:38:57.625
I don't know
anyone's ever made a gift as big as that.
01:38:58.333 --> 01:38:59.875
Apparently, they haven't.
01:39:03.000 --> 01:39:07.750
I also told Mr. Phillips that I expect
your work to receive proper recognition.
01:39:13.708 --> 01:39:14.666
Thank you.
01:40:27.041 --> 01:40:29.958
- Steer it steady, Mr. Brown.
- Aye, aye.
01:40:30.041 --> 01:40:32.000
We're coming towards the edge
of the atmosphere.
01:40:32.083 --> 01:40:33.625
Can you see it, Mother?
01:40:33.708 --> 01:40:35.750
We're sailing into the cosmos.
01:40:36.250 --> 01:40:39.250
Yes, I can. Where are we heading?
01:40:39.333 --> 01:40:42.500
Orion's Belt, to take the Queen home.
01:40:43.083 --> 01:40:44.458
Which Queen?
01:40:44.541 --> 01:40:49.041
This boat's hers. Her people gave
her treasure for her home voyage.
01:40:53.333 --> 01:40:56.083
And she was sad
when the ship came…
01:40:57.375 --> 01:41:01.291
Because she knew
she'd be leaving everyone behind.
01:41:02.750 --> 01:41:04.625
And she was worried
01:41:05.583 --> 01:41:08.375
that they wouldn't get on
very well without her…
01:41:09.833 --> 01:41:13.041
But she knew
she had to follow the King into the sky.
01:41:14.041 --> 01:41:15.541
And so, she set off…
01:41:16.541 --> 01:41:19.750
Through the Earth and up into the cosmos.
01:41:20.958 --> 01:41:23.458
Space is a funny thing.
01:41:23.541 --> 01:41:28.875
Time operates quite differently up there,
and 500 years can pass in a flash.
01:41:31.083 --> 01:41:33.458
And the Queen looked back down to Earth.
01:41:34.166 --> 01:41:38.791
She could see that her son had grown up
and that he was now a space pilot.
01:41:43.041 --> 01:41:47.250
And she knew that when he made
his first journey up to the stars,
01:41:48.125 --> 01:41:50.166
she would be there to meet him.

01:42:03.500 --> 01:42:06.000
This morning, the British ambassador
01:42:06.083 --> 01:42:10.708
in Berlin handed
the German government a final note…
01:42:12.000 --> 01:42:17.125
Stating that,
unless we heard from them by 11 o'clock,
01:42:17.625 --> 01:42:22.708
that they were prepared at once
to withdraw their troops from Poland,
01:42:22.791 --> 01:42:26.166
a state of war would exist between us.
01:42:27.000 --> 01:42:28.750
I have to tell you now
01:42:29.250 --> 01:42:32.041
that no such undertaking
has been received,
01:42:33.041 --> 01:42:38.333
and that, consequently,
this country is at war with Germany.
01:42:38.416 --> 01:42:40.875
- Good night, sir.
- Good night to you.
01:42:43.041 --> 01:42:47.416
You can imagine
what a bitter blow it is to me
01:42:47.916 --> 01:42:51.250
that all my long struggle
to win peace has failed.
01:42:51.333 --> 01:42:53.125
- Good night to you.
- Good night.
01:42:56.500 --> 01:42:58.750
The government have made plans
01:42:59.250 --> 01:43:02.916
under which it will be possible
to carry on the work of the nation
01:43:03.000 --> 01:43:06.625
in the days of stress and strain
that may be ahead…
01:43:09.250 --> 01:43:11.500
…but these plans need your help.
01:43:17.125 --> 01:43:20.333
You may be taking your part
in the fighting services
01:43:20.833 --> 01:43:22.250
or as a volunteer.
01:43:24.083 --> 01:43:26.375
If so, you will report for duty
01:43:26.458 --> 01:43:29.250
in accordance
with the instructions you receive.
01:43:39.083 --> 01:43:43.083
It is of vital importance
that you should carry on with your jobs.
01:43:46.791 --> 01:43:49.166
Now, may God bless you all.
