00:00:49 #1 You want England to be ruled by a house-tider?

00:00:54 #2 No, no.

00:00:56 #3 No, you say.

00:00:58 #4 Then who is this here, Israeli,

00:01:01 #5 that he should be Prime Minister of England?

00:01:04 #6 A Jew whose grandfather was a high-talent,

00:01:08 #7 a blooming foreigner.

00:01:10 #8 Here he is.

00:01:12 #9 What he done for England, I ask.

00:01:14 #10 What he done?

00:01:16 #11 Nothing.

00:01:17 #12 He says nothing.

00:01:22 #13 must be blind, deaf and dumb, as well as intoxication.

00:01:29 #14 And what does he say now?

00:01:33 #15 He says, Russia is looking at us with eyes of yearning,

00:01:37 #16 that the Tsar has set up in his heart

00:01:40 #17 to rule the seventh deed.

00:01:43 #18 Looming Rock, I says, down with the Israeli.

00:01:48 #19 Blanton is the man for us.

00:02:03 #20 I consider it an affront to every English gentleman that the destils of our nation should be in the hands of a person like this Rayleigh.

00:02:11 #21 A man who poses as a great patriot, but who is in reality an unprincipled politician seeking only to gratify his mad thirst for power.

00:02:22 #22 And now, he wants to involve us in serious international trouble with this internal nonsense about Russia trying to undermine our power in India.

00:02:31 #23 If the fellow keeps on, he'll put England on the rocks.

00:02:36 #24 What does the governor of the Bank of England say?

00:02:39 #25 I say he's a dreamer, a dangerous visionary, reaching out

00:02:44 #26 for empire with greedy hands, committing us

00:02:47 #27 to a foreign policy of imperialism that makes

00:02:50 #28 me tremble for England's safety.

00:02:52 #29 But thank God for Blastoff.

00:02:55 #30 He's more than a match for the Israeli.

00:02:58 #31 He's a foreign policy such as the right honorable gentleman

00:03:06 #32 proposes would not only gain us and deservedly the ill will of other nations, but would ultimately

00:03:15 #33 involve us in that red calamity war. I say that in proposing such a policy, the right

00:03:25 #34 honourable gentleman has branded himself as unworthy to be the councillor of England's

00:03:32 #35 sovereign, unworthy to be the guardian of England's welfare, unworthy to hold the high office

00:03:40 #36 of prime minister.

00:03:50 #37 Now that my honorable friend Mr Gladstone, with his customary eloquence and tact, has

00:04:01 #38 expressed his customary disapproval.

00:04:06 #39 The issue, gentlemen, is this.

00:04:09 #40 Whether you are content to be a comfortable England,

00:04:12 #41 meeting in due course with a sad, inevitable fate,

00:04:16 #42 or whether you will be a great country,

00:04:19 #43 an imperial country,

00:04:21 #44 a country where your sons, when they rise,

00:04:23 #45 will rise to paramount positions

00:04:25 #46 and obtain not merely the esteem of their own countrymen,

00:04:29 #47 but the esteem of the world.

00:04:31 #48 Yeah, yeah.

00:04:32 #49 Perhaps you think that because no war clouds darken the present horizon, that there is no danger.

00:04:40 #50 Have you ever seen one of those marine landscapes of the coast of South America?

00:04:46 #51 You behold a range of exhausted volcanoes, not a flame flickers on a single pallid peak.

00:04:56 #52 But, Benish, there is a dormant danger that will one day awake.

00:05:03 #53 You're worrying about something.

00:05:38 #54 No, no, my dear. I sometimes think that I never worry.

00:05:42 #55 Well, I'll not bother you now about our garden coffee.

00:05:46 #56 But I'm dying to be bothered. Mary, my dear, your morning tribute.

00:05:50 #57 Thank you, disease.

00:05:52 #58 Every morning, wherever we are, you never forget.

00:05:57 #59 I'll forget nonsense. You know I married you for your money.

00:06:02 #60 Let me see your list of invitations. Lady Clarissa Pevency.

00:06:08 #61 Oh, and her father and mother, the Duke and Duchess of Vastinbury.

00:06:12 #62 I'm afraid the Duke and Duchess shiver with contempt at the very name of

00:06:16 #63 the Israeli. But Clarissa will see that they come when they want to or not.

00:06:20 #64 Dear Clarissa, she thinks you're the greatest man in the world.

00:06:24 #65 And she's right.

00:06:25 #66 This is quite right, my dear.

00:06:27 #67 The young Diefred will come to Santa Codon

00:06:29 #68 in order to protect Clarissa

00:06:31 #69 against my diabolical influence.

00:06:33 #70 I'm quite sure your party will be a great success.

00:06:37 #71 Mary, I want you to invite Boisenault,

00:06:41 #72 the Russian ambassador, who's a greaable gentleman.

00:06:46 #73 And I also want you to invite Mrs. Travers.

00:06:52 #74 Mrs. Travers? Why do you scarcely know her?

00:06:55 #75 That's why I want you to invite her.

00:06:57 #76 I'm anxious to cultivate her acquaintance.

00:07:00 #77 Mary.

00:07:02 #78 Yes, dear?

00:07:03 #79 Where have I met her before?

00:07:06 #80 Oh, we've met her at dinner.

00:07:08 #81 No, no.

00:07:10 #82 I mean long ago.

00:07:12 #83 I connect her with something blue and white.

00:07:16 #84 Oh, now, Dizzy, you're off on one of your wild goose chases again.

00:07:29 #85 Blue and white.

00:07:29 #86 Oh, my dear Mrs. Trout, you're looking more charming than usual.

00:08:15 #87 Please, sit down.

00:08:19 #88 Did you learn anything?

00:08:22 #89 We've nothing immediate to fear from this range.

00:08:25 #90 He can't act without Parliament.

00:08:28 #91 And Parliament has a germ thanks for all.

00:08:30 #92 Yes, England has obligingly tied the hands of the one man

00:08:36 #93 who might have blocked Russia's plans.

00:08:39 #94 And long before his hands are free,

00:08:42 #95 we shall have come to terms with Egypt.

00:08:47 #96 Russia will control the Swiss canal.

00:08:50 #97 And Israel's dream of British supremacy in Asia

00:08:55 #98 will still be only a dream.

00:08:58 #99 But don't forget that even with his hands tied,

00:09:03 #100 This royal can still get things from up his sleeve.

00:09:08 #101 He must be watched as closely as ever.

00:09:17 #102 It's the porch I'm about to climb.

00:09:19 #103 Oh, uh, throw him in.

00:09:22 #104 Husbands always arrive at the wrong moment.

00:09:26 #105 Hello, Father. Hello, sir. Hello, dear.

00:09:31 #106 Cigarettes? Oh, thanks. And you?

00:09:34 #107 Things will be at a standstill at this radio's office.

00:09:37 #108 until he comes back from you and I got a note from him this morning telling me I

00:09:41 #109 might have the rest of the week off and thanking me for my my faithful attention

00:09:46 #110 to his interest. I'm afraid the great is really is getting.

00:10:04 #111 The earth. The lady back. By count.

00:10:07 #112 Be fair, my dear, you look charming.

00:10:13 #113 How do you do?

00:10:14 #114 How do you?

00:10:15 #115 The spirit of youth and beauty.

00:10:17 #116 He then, behold, winter hand in hand with spring.

00:10:22 #117 Innocence with guile, experience the same thing.

00:10:26 #118 May I be permitted?

00:10:30 #119 If something would only happen to Charles to make him human.

00:10:41 #120 Perhaps something may happen to him, my dear, with the help of Thurson.

00:10:50 #121 But to a man of your sound judgment, Mr. Bisraeli's ideas must sometimes appear...

00:10:57 #122 Not only impractical, wildly fantastic.

00:11:01 #123 The Bank of England's money will never back any of his crazy enterprises, as long as I can prevent it.

00:11:08 #124 How fortunate. England has men like you.

00:11:13 #125 Why, Mrs. Cavers, may I be allowed to join you?

00:11:16 #126 Oh, yes, certainly. Sit down, please.

00:11:18 #127 What a heavenly spot this is.

00:11:24 #128 The prime minister's garden.

00:11:26 #129 Why do you dislike Mr. Disraeli so much?

00:11:32 #130 I neither like him nor dislike him. He's nothing to me.

00:11:36 #131 Oh, don't you feel lonely?

00:11:39 #132 Lonely?

00:11:40 #133 You're the only man in all the world who neither likes nor dislikes Mr. Disraeli.

00:11:44 #134 Yes, yes. I know how much you admire him, but we won't argue about that now.

00:11:49 #135 I have spoken to your mother and she has given me her gracious permission to address it.

00:12:01 #136 Was her permission needed?

00:12:03 #137 Well, I'm rather a stickler for all, Mulev.

00:12:05 #138 I know.

00:12:07 #139 I consider it my duty to marry.

00:12:10 #140 Yes.

00:12:11 #141 I am much interested in the working man.

00:12:13 #142 I have plans for building model cottages with improved sanitary appliances.

00:12:18 #143 I trust my wife and I.

00:12:20 #144 my wife and I will show our humble friends a model English household model children

00:12:25 #145 in short a model moment of all these models to do with me.

00:12:31 #146 I not made myself clear. Since first I hit the privilege of meeting you I have

00:12:36 #147 watched you closely and Clarissa may I call you Clarissa.

00:12:44 #148 I have decided that in time you will become admirably suited to occupy the

00:12:48 #149 position I have a dumb reading I beg your father and I'm ready to.

00:12:55 #150 Outline thank you you will think me very silly Charles may I call you Charles.

00:13:03 #151 But is this is this really an offer of marriage. I hope I had made that clear

00:13:09 #152 without offensive plainness of speak how wonderful. But you have the right to

00:13:14 #153 expect a high matrimony reliance I mean the manner of your proposal surely you are

00:13:21 #154 a young man of 25 I'm a girl of 19 and you come to me with an essay on political

00:13:26 #155 economy I'm a man of heavy responsibilities not a hero romance you

00:13:31 #156 will enter a family of which the men have never done anything to be ashamed of

00:13:35 #157 have they ever done anything nothing thank God to attract attention well

00:13:44 #158 I think the next thing will be to announce arbitration.

00:13:48 #159 Not quite. I am very much honored, Lord Dieford, but I must decline the responsibilities and the privileges.

00:13:55 #160 I beg your pardon.

00:13:56 #161 Oh, Charles, Charles, you've made a horrible hash of the whole thing.

00:13:59 #162 Yes?

00:14:00 #163 Yes, for pity's sake, let me talk, slang or I shall have hysterics.

00:14:03 #164 I did like you. I liked you very much. But your model cottages leave me cold, because I know the laborer wants bread, not bricks.

00:14:10 #165 a spirit and all those model children I want flesh and blood children who tear

00:14:15 #166 their pinnacles and mirror faces with jam. Lady Carissa.

00:14:19 #167 If ever I marry and I hope I shall I want a husband who is at the bottom and is

00:14:23 #168 climbing, climbing on hands and knees, leading hands and bleeding knees.

00:14:28 #169 With his eyes fixed on the summit, never mind if he never gets there I can help him

00:14:33 #170 to climb and if he falls I can fall with him.

00:14:36 #171 But no, you were born at the top.

00:14:39 #172 You sit in a revered-fied-ass messiah like the gods on Olympus.

00:14:43 #173 Oh!

00:14:48 #174 I see, I have made a mistake.

00:14:56 #175 Well, you refused him, eh?

00:15:00 #176 Oh, how did you know?

00:15:02 #177 That back was eloquent of refusal.

00:15:06 #178 You have no sympathy with really made greatness.

00:15:09 #179 You refused Ethan because he's a mere descendant

00:15:13 #180 and not an ancestor.

00:15:14 #181 Well, am I not right?

00:15:18 #182 Well, he may become an ancestor, you know.

00:15:22 #183 Tim, are you fond of him?

00:15:27 #184 I like him very much.

00:15:29 #185 If he had simply said,

00:15:31 #186 Clarissa, will you marry me?

00:15:33 #187 I might have answered just as simply, yes.

00:15:36 #188 But he lectured me on model colleges and the model family.

00:15:39 #189 You know, I have a very high opinion of him.

00:15:42 #190 You? But he has no initiative.

00:15:44 #191 Who knows?

00:15:45 #192 If the opportunity occurred, he might rise to it.

00:15:48 #193 A man should make his own opportunity.

00:15:51 #194 And it's no use talking, I refused him and I told him why. Did you? Quite frankly.

00:15:55 #195 Did you?

00:15:56 #196 I told him I must have a man who tried.

00:15:58 #197 As he is now, I would sooner marry a Frick player.

00:16:01 #198 He does lay bricks, and he may build a cathedral.

00:16:04 #199 Don't be hard and deep.

00:16:05 #200 Go along and hear me a sorry.

00:16:08 #201 Very good advice, Mr. Disraeli, which I'm not going to follow.

00:16:13 #202 A telegram, though.

00:16:21 #203 All right.

00:16:22 #204 Personally, I can't endure these disreailings.

00:16:52 #205 But Clarissa would come.

00:16:54 #206 Well, I can't stand the fellows confounded as shawarma.

00:16:58 #207 Ah, pardon me.

00:16:59 #208 Sir Michael, will you come into the library a moment?

00:17:02 #209 There's a little matter on which I particularly

00:17:04 #210 want your advice.

00:17:06 #211 Very well.

00:17:08 #212 Will you excuse me?

00:17:09 #213 And Mrs. Driver, Duke, I'm sure you'll forgive me

00:17:13 #214 for taking Sir Michael away.

00:17:15 #215 Sit down, Michael. Sit down.

00:17:39 #216 I just had private information that Ismael Pasha is in desperate need of money.

00:17:45 #217 As you know, he holds the controlling shares of the Suez Canal.

00:17:49 #218 Robert, this is an unparalleled opportunity for England.

00:17:53 #219 Opportunity for England? You don't mean that to nervous.

00:17:56 #220 Pardon me, in dead-anis.

00:17:59 #221 Do you seriously mean that you're thinking of purchasing the Suez Canal for England?

00:18:03 #222 I have said and meant anything half so seriously.

00:18:06 #223 And you're going to suggest to me that the Bank of England should bet you?

00:18:09 #224 I am. Until Parliament meets again.

00:18:11 #225 Then let me tell you so at once. I shall never consent. Never so. Wait a moment.

00:18:15 #226 No, sir, there's nothing to wait for.

00:18:17 #227 I'll not allow the Bank to play ducks and brakes with its money on an Egyptian ditch.

00:18:23 #228 An Egyptian ditch? That's rather neat.

00:18:26 #229 There won't be ducks and brakes because the government will be at your back.

00:18:29 #230 How do I know that?

00:18:30 #231 I say so.

00:18:31 #232 Suppose the government falls.

00:18:33 #233 A man is always falling.

00:18:35 #234 What difference does that make?

00:18:37 #235 Don't the conservatives invariably go on just where the radicals left off?

00:18:41 #236 And vice versa?

00:18:42 #237 Besides, in this case it hasn't time to fall.

00:18:45 #238 This thing must be done within the next three weeks,

00:18:48 #239 long before Parliament meets.

00:18:50 #240 Why are you such a hurry?

00:18:52 #241 Because Russia...

00:18:53 #242 Oh, that ancient bugbear!

00:18:55 #243 That ever-present peril knows of this opportunity

00:18:59 #244 to purchase the high road to India.

00:19:00 #245 Why hasn't she purchased?

00:19:01 #246 He's not ready.

00:19:03 #247 She has no fleet, but she's watching us.

00:19:06 #248 She's watching me.

00:19:07 #249 The spy, menier.

00:19:09 #250 And if she sees the slightest move on my part,

00:19:11 #251 she'll snap up the canal.

00:19:13 #252 Fleet on, no fleet.

00:19:18 #253 A pretty moon, Mrs. Talos.

00:19:22 #254 Yeah.

00:19:24 #255 Such pretty ears.

00:19:44 #256 Yes, sir.

00:19:45 #257 After that, a delightful interview. No, sir.

00:19:48 #258 Your scheme is fair, Bray.

00:19:50 #259 Unconstitutional.

00:19:51 #260 And the bank will be no party to it.

00:19:53 #261 I tell you, there is no time.

00:19:54 #262 exaggerate the importance of the thing.

00:19:56 #263 You have the eastern imagination.

00:19:59 #264 Because this canal runs through a desert,

00:20:01 #265 you see it in a dream, in a mirage.

00:20:06 #266 Meet again.

00:20:06 #267 The canal is a confessed failure.

00:20:08 #268 Whatever doesn't pay is a failure.

00:20:11 #269 The tonnage that passed through it last year, please.

00:20:13 #270 And it's filling up, sir.

00:20:15 #271 Filling up.

00:20:17 #272 Soon the only ship sailing on it

00:20:18 #273 will be the ship of the desert.

00:20:23 #274 I mean the camo, sir.

00:20:25 #275 Yes, I thought you meant the camel.

00:20:27 #276 Beware of the east.

00:20:29 #277 Remember Pharaoh, sir.

00:20:30 #278 Remember Pharaoh.

00:20:32 #279 Yes, but what about Moses?

00:20:34 #280 He was a Jew.

00:20:35 #281 That is, he was privileged.

00:20:38 #282 In short, I disapprove of your imperialistic ideas,

00:20:43 #283 Mr. Disraeli, and the bank will not

00:20:45 #284 stir a finger to further them.

00:20:52 #285 Why, you were?

00:20:55 #286 I feared you were getting too warm.

00:20:57 #287 I rejoice to think that I have made

00:20:59 #288 this rash enterprise impossible.

00:21:02 #289 Oh, but you haven't.

00:21:05 #290 Where would you go for the money?

00:21:09 #291 We are far away.

00:21:11 #292 We are all Christians go.

00:21:13 #293 I should go to Moses.

00:21:15 #294 At any rate, understand it will be no use coming to me.

00:21:23 #295 This, sir, is definite and final.

00:21:26 #296 Nothing is final, Sir Michael.

00:21:28 #297 In the unlikely event of Moses failing me, I may sin for you again.

00:21:33 #298 And I shall not come, sir.

00:21:35 #299 I think you will.

00:21:42 #300 Who are you and for Michael talking about?

00:21:58 #301 Lady Probert did a great for a way.

00:22:00 #302 She's missed her husband.

00:22:02 #303 Has she?

00:22:04 #304 He's missed his opportunity.

00:22:06 #305 Come, dear, everybody will wonder what's become of you.

00:22:09 #306 All right, media.

00:22:11 #307 I'm just a hold of Hugh Myers.

00:22:14 #308 Hugh Myers the banker?

00:22:17 #309 That's the man, Mary.

00:22:19 #310 That's the man.

00:22:20 #311 We're very kind to send that telegram.

00:22:22 #312 Dizzy, you're not worrying about money.

00:22:28 #313 No, no, my dear.

00:22:29 #314 Kroper and I were just talking politics.

00:22:32 #315 There's defense.

00:22:38 #316 You know I told you something might happen to him.

00:22:40 #317 Yes.

00:22:41 #318 Well, it has happened.

00:22:42 #319 He has asked Clarissa to marry him.

00:22:44 #320 That will be a good match, I suppose.

00:22:46 #321 It's because she's refused.

00:22:48 #322 Oh!

00:22:49 #323 Mary, I'm going to play fairy godfather

00:22:52 #324 and bring them together.

00:22:53 #325 You are matchmaker.

00:22:54 #326 The prime minister need electing his work.

00:22:56 #327 The lesser prime minister does the fewer mistakes he has to make.

00:23:01 #328 That's rather good. I'm Sarah to Gladstone one night in the house.

00:23:07 #329 I've been searching for a young man with such a priceless glueser.

00:23:11 #330 Charles may become just what I need. I think what a splendid couple they'd make.

00:23:16 #331 Ah, busy. Always dreaming of old man.

00:23:19 #332 I'm living one, my dear, while you are by me, sir.

00:23:23 #333 I think he wants to kill me.

00:23:36 #334 Mr. Disraeli.

00:23:38 #335 I know that tone of voice so well.

00:23:40 #336 What do you mean, sir?

00:23:41 #337 It's the tone of an angry man.

00:23:47 #338 Now, what can I put you out?

00:23:48 #339 No, don't speak.

00:23:50 #340 Interruption is annoying.

00:23:52 #341 If they hadn't interrupted me the first time I addressed the House of Commons,

00:23:55 #342 I might have become a vestibule.

00:23:57 #343 Unrespectable.

00:23:58 #344 Really, Mr. Disraeli, you make it difficult to talk to you seriously.

00:24:01 #345 I never talk seriously.

00:24:03 #346 I'm not a vestibule.

00:24:07 #347 a talk seriously keep your great face your jokes I never make jokes a man who never

00:24:13 #348 makes jokes is a standing joke to the world humor is of several kinds we oxford men

00:24:19 #349 have a humor of our own I know an unconscious human Mr. Disraeli Clarissa has

00:24:27 #350 refused me yeah and I sir I attribute her refusal to your influence I see I was

00:24:35 #351 You're thoroughly justified in thinking well of you.

00:24:38 #352 What do you mean?

00:24:39 #353 You have courage.

00:24:40 #354 Or you would never say that to me.

00:24:41 #355 Then why should I not say?

00:24:42 #356 Because it's true.

00:24:43 #357 And when a very young man speaks an unpleasant truth to a very old one, he shows absolutely reckless courage.

00:24:50 #358 There was no other way.

00:24:51 #359 A hundred.

00:24:52 #360 You think a girl's know as final?

00:24:54 #361 I suppose she knows her own mind.

00:24:56 #362 Certainly.

00:24:57 #363 It'll make her change it.

00:24:59 #364 How?

00:25:02 #365 I'm glad you're asking me to help you.

00:25:04 #366 Because I'm interested in you.

00:25:07 #367 Interested in me? Deeply.

00:25:09 #368 Why?

00:25:10 #369 Because England stands in terrible need of men like you.

00:25:14 #370 I can't see that.

00:25:16 #371 England was never so prosperous as now.

00:25:19 #372 Yes, so why is there aristocracy?

00:25:21 #373 An industrious middle class, a contented and happy person.

00:25:24 #374 Bravo, bravo!

00:25:27 #375 How many old Tory squires have I heard talk just like that?

00:25:31 #376 And that's how they talk since the beginning of things.

00:25:33 #377 That's how they talk when we lost America.

00:25:35 #378 And the Indian Mutual University punks.

00:25:37 #379 When our soldiers froze and starved in the Crimea.

00:25:40 #380 When we deserted Denmark.

00:25:42 #381 And when we remained idle,

00:25:44 #382 while France and Germany threw at each other's throats.

00:25:47 #383 And just that talk,

00:25:49 #384 that has lost us all our friendships.

00:25:51 #385 Continental friendships?

00:25:53 #386 Frog eaters? Beer swillers?

00:25:56 #387 Is that how you talk to Clarissa?

00:25:59 #388 I do not discuss politics with women.

00:26:02 #389 with women. I do. Think men think. England is as isolated as a ship lying off the coast.

00:26:14 #390 Our crew know nothing of what they call the land lovers. They go on shore now and then for a

00:26:20 #391 debauch. But as they only hunt out the vices, they come back with a headache and righteously

00:26:25 #392 thank God they are not as other men. I tell you, our farm men does it work all over the world.

00:26:31 #393 Titanic forces ran chained in America,

00:26:33 #394 forces you have no conception of.

00:26:35 #395 The spirit of nationality is aroused in France,

00:26:38 #396 in Italy, in Germany.

00:26:40 #397 New wine has been poured into old bottles

00:26:43 #398 and an explosion must follow sooner or later.

00:26:46 #399 I shall not live to see it,

00:26:48 #400 but I hear the seething of the East.

00:26:51 #401 But you, my God, what things you will witness.

00:26:55 #402 Take care, you are not asleep.

00:26:58 #403 All the nations must expand and everywhere our empire is in their way.

00:27:04 #404 Russia, for instance.

00:27:05 #405 Now, while England stands alone, while France is crippled and before Germany is recovered,

00:27:11 #406 now is Russia's opportunity to snatch it India.

00:27:15 #407 With India lost, the whole fabric crumbles and England sinks into insignificance, a bellgeom at sea.

00:27:24 #408 Now do you see why Clarissa is a future?

00:27:27 #409 These are the things I've shown her you wonder she wants a man of action

00:27:32 #410 You wonder she's not content with being a mere Duke's wife

00:27:36 #411 I see I

00:27:39 #412 See but but what can I do?

00:27:42 #413 What can any one man do what one man has already done?

00:27:47 #414 you sir

00:27:49 #415 But how can I hope to emulate you you can learn will you learn will you teach me? Yes?

00:27:54 #416 How can I begin leave your small idea?

00:27:57 #417 or better still grow from small ideals to greater.

00:28:01 #418 You have begun well.

00:28:02 #419 You're putting your house in order.

00:28:04 #420 Now pass on, pass on the parish to the empire.

00:28:08 #421 The parish? How small it seems.

00:28:10 #422 And everything I've done in politics, how utterly insignificant.

00:28:14 #423 In politics, nothing is insignificant.

00:28:17 #424 Contrast it with this question of India.

00:28:19 #425 Well, the way hold it, I'll lose it.

00:28:20 #426 Yes, what's the solution? War?

00:28:22 #427 War is never a solution. It's an aggravation.

00:28:26 #428 What then is the solution?

00:28:28 #429 A very small thing.

00:28:30 #430 A thing men are laughing at.

00:28:32 #431 What's a what?

00:28:34 #432 A ditch.

00:28:38 #433 Dug in sand.

00:28:40 #434 A ditch?

00:28:43 #435 Dug in shifting sand.

00:28:46 #436 You mean that...

00:28:48 #437 I mean that a ditch dug in sand

00:28:51 #438 grows the very best cellar.

00:28:54 #439 Ah, Mrs. Trouther.

00:28:56 #440 We were just in the thick and most interesting horticultural army.

00:29:00 #441 Yes.

00:29:01 #442 Yes. Mary.

00:29:03 #443 Yes, Theo.

00:29:04 #444 Now, Dithered has done me the honor of accepting a secretarieship.

00:29:08 #445 What?

00:29:09 #446 Lord Dithered working.

00:29:11 #447 Clive, sir, isn't that unexpected?

00:29:13 #448 Not altogether.

00:29:14 #449 And how he'll have to work.

00:29:16 #450 You'll have so much to teach them.

00:29:19 #451 Mr. Disraeli has already begun.

00:29:21 #452 Yes.

00:29:22 #453 I've been teaching him what it took me many years to learn.

00:29:25 #454 land what is that. The lady that a ditch dug in sand grows the very best

00:29:32 #455 cellar. What do you mean. Morning. Morning.

00:29:57 #456 Oh. Morning. You can tell me Mr.

00:30:08 #457 Jones waiting he was not here sir. These are ready for delivery sir. Thank

00:30:14 #458 Thank you, sir. Dispatches from Russia.

00:30:23 #459 Howdy, Beth. Thank you.

00:30:28 #460 Well, you might look over these figures, will you?

00:30:32 #461 And have those delivered to me.

00:30:38 #462 Is there anything else, sir?

00:30:40 #463 Nothing else, Mr. Spudgen.

00:30:47 #464 Mr. Spudgen, you had the figures about the fortification.

00:30:55 #465 Yes, sir.

00:30:57 #466 The dispatches from Russia, aren't they?

00:31:06 #467 Oh, I beg your pardon, sir.

00:31:09 #468 Oh, quite a natural mistake.

00:31:11 #469 Mr. Humeyer, sir.

00:31:13 #470 Ah.

00:31:16 #471 Humeyer, how do you do?

00:31:20 #472 Well, the manning is on its way.

00:31:23 #473 From the Argent. Woman of the right.

00:31:25 #474 In three weeks.

00:31:26 #475 Good.

00:31:27 #476 To be placed at my disposal in the Bank of England.

00:31:30 #477 The Bank of England?

00:31:31 #478 That's rather humorous.

00:31:33 #479 Why, I was thinking of probing.

00:31:35 #480 Oh.

00:31:35 #481 Ha, ha, ha.

00:31:38 #482 Edith, this is Mr. Humiles, one of the world's greatest power.

00:31:47 #483 He had to raise money, you know,

00:31:49 #484 for the fortifications of the Gulf of Aden.

00:31:52 #485 Oh, I hoped it was something much more romantic than that.

00:31:56 #486 Oh, what?

00:31:57 #487 The shoe is canal.

00:32:01 #488 Oh, did you? You're quite right.

00:32:09 #489 It is the shoe is canal.

00:32:11 #490 Since you've hit on the truth,

00:32:12 #491 it's better that I should tell you that until I am ready,

00:32:15 #492 not a syllable must be brewed on this matter.

00:32:17 #493 That clear on my honor. You come into my room. Excuse me I forgot to give you all this

00:32:30 #494 a big game. Oh thank you. Mr. Mayer this is Mr.

00:32:36 #495 Farger such a walk. Let me see what was the exact amount required for the fortifications

00:32:48 #497 Come, Mr. Myers.

00:32:50 #498 You know why Mr. Myers is here?

00:32:58 #499 I'm very busy.

00:33:01 #500 He's not here for any fortification scheme.

00:33:04 #501 He's here for the Suez Canal.

00:33:06 #502 Lady Clidris of Evendee and Mrs. Travers are here.

00:33:13 #503 Here's an invasion.

00:33:15 #504 Delighted.

00:33:16 #505 Mrs. Travers and I were dying to see how you looked in the throes of toil.

00:33:19 #506 Oh, well, it hasn't undermined my constitution yet.

00:33:23 #507 We expected to find you with a west tower around your head.

00:33:26 #508 around your head and I'm so far I've done nothing but look on wonderful

00:33:31 #509 opportunity for you. That would be a bomb sharp appropriate I'm delighted. Well

00:34:07 #514 secret but I'm not I am only an apprentice how humbly you speak of yourself I know

00:34:16 #515 now but I know nothing that's a great stride toward your goal isn't it is it I

00:34:23 #516 I think so.

00:34:31 #517 Maybe.

00:34:32 #518 You do.

00:34:34 #519 But let an old woman rest how we are alone.

00:35:01 #520 Agatha.

00:35:03 #521 Myles? Yes.

00:35:05 #522 About the canal?

00:35:06 #523 Yes.

00:35:07 #524 They're agreed.

00:35:08 #525 How do you know?

00:35:09 #526 Both radiant. Then? Cairo. Tops now. Yes, but I...

00:35:20 #533 Off ten.

00:35:25 #535 Oh Mr. Fogel.

00:35:29 #536 Get all the papers, giving the figures you asked for, sir.

00:35:31 #537 Oh, thank you.

00:35:33 #538 The blue one and the white one.

00:35:35 #539 Blue and white.

00:35:37 #540 That's cute.

00:35:39 #541 Uh, Mrs. Trevors, this is Mr. Fogel.

00:35:43 #542 Uh, such a worker.

00:35:45 #543 Now, how's your poor husband?

00:35:47 #544 No better idea.

00:35:49 #545 Still abroad.

00:35:51 #546 Taking the waters, you know.

00:35:53 #547 Will you kindly make my excuses to the young people

00:35:55 #548 Then after you're not going so abruptly I'm sorry but the lady probes is

00:36:00 #549 organizing a bizarre always occupied in good work always with your hand in some

00:36:06 #550 great undertaking in secret to

00:36:11 #551 Mr. Israeli.

00:36:13 #552 No not a step not a step goodbye.

00:36:17 #553 The bar is down.

00:36:19 #554 I'll stand.

00:36:30 #555 Stand.

00:37:17 #556 Oh, I beg your pardon, sir.

00:37:21 #557 I thought you called.

00:37:40 #558 Very sorry, sir.

00:37:41 #559 You told me I'd make any comment about Mars, was it?

00:37:44 #560 Well, yes.

00:37:45 #561 I thought he'd rather be person. Oh, how? Shall I go?

00:37:48 #562 No, not my dear, well. We asked Quest. Yes?

00:37:50 #563 Well, I snubbed him.

00:37:51 #564 Finally, he had the impersonance

00:37:53 #565 to say that you were seeing Mars about...

00:37:55 #566 Well?

00:37:56 #567 Am I to speak in Lady Clarissa's...

00:37:58 #568 Yes, yes, go on.

00:37:59 #569 About the Suez Canal.

00:38:00 #570 What did you say?

00:38:01 #571 Not a word, of course.

00:38:03 #572 How did you snub him?

00:38:09 #573 I merely stood up.

00:38:11 #574 And looked at him.

00:38:14 #575 What, sir?

00:38:15 #576 What more could you have told him if you'd talked for an hour?

00:38:17 #577 Do you accuse me of speaking?

00:38:19 #578 No, sir, I accuse you of holding your tongue too eloquently.

00:38:22 #579 Oh, well, he easily must have. Oh.

00:38:24 #580 He's only a parole, huh?

00:38:25 #581 Yes, Petcham. Petcham.

00:38:27 #582 Mr. Towne. Mr. Towne.

00:38:28 #583 Yes, sir?

00:38:29 #584 Send for the senior queen's messenger immediately.

00:38:31 #585 Yes, sir.

00:38:34 #586 Well, he's not there.

00:38:36 #587 He's not in his room, sir.

00:38:37 #588 No. So I tell you where he is. He's Victoria Station.

00:38:39 #589 Kicking the 1030 Express. On his way to Ascent, to Est, and so to Cairo.

00:38:43 #590 For God's sake, sir. Who is he?

00:38:45 #591 He's Mrs. Travers' husband.

00:38:46 #592 What? Yes. He and she are agents spies.

00:38:49 #593 Russia has sent here to discover what you have told them.

00:38:51 #594 Have him arrested, if how.

00:38:53 #595 Or more ground. What has he done?

00:38:54 #596 Sir, why did you employ him knowing he was a spy?

00:38:56 #597 Because I knew it. Because I wanted to have a man in my eye.

00:38:59 #598 For weeks he's been secretly entering this room. I knew it.

00:39:01 #599 I have counted papers and letters for him to read.

00:39:03 #600 I had him on the wrong scent when you...

00:39:05 #601 When I blunder.

00:39:07 #602 When you lost control of your features.

00:39:08 #603 Will you tell us why silence is so important?

00:39:12 #604 Now it's of no importance whatever.

00:39:16 #605 Yes.

00:39:17 #606 You often are.

00:39:18 #607 So in future...

00:39:19 #608 Future? What future is there for me?

00:39:21 #609 In future you may learn to control your features as well as your tongue.

00:39:24 #610 Sit down.

00:39:34 #611 Ishmael Bashar, the key to the Egypt,

00:39:37 #612 is under the impression that he's ramming the Great.

00:39:40 #613 But the only pyramid he has raised is the Pyramid of Death.

00:39:43 #614 Egypt is a dry bone out of which he has sucked the last ounce of metal.

00:39:48 #615 The last assets he has are the controlling shares in the Suez Canal.

00:39:52 #616 Please, he is dying to sell the highest bidder.

00:39:55 #617 Can't spilt the canal, but he's two-pointered by it.

00:39:58 #618 Russia covers it as a means of snatching India.

00:40:01 #619 England as a means of defending it.

00:40:03 #620 Both pretend the purchase is the last thing in the world they are thinking of.

00:40:08 #621 Both are watching each other like cats.

00:40:10 #622 I niche my six and wait for the cat to jump.

00:40:15 #623 Those shares I mean to have are the Bank of England

00:40:19 #624 to choose to back me.

00:40:20 #625 But today Mars has given me a blank check

00:40:22 #626 and I thought the thing was done.

00:40:23 #627 But now Podjam knows, Russia knows.

00:40:25 #628 In a week Podjam will be in caro

00:40:27 #629 and whatever sum they offer he will double.

00:40:30 #630 Now do you see the importance of it?

00:40:32 #631 There's no remedy.

00:40:35 #632 Of course there is.

00:40:36 #633 What's a what?

00:40:38 #634 and send the man to the key with unlimited powers ready to output anything ready to

00:40:43 #635 permanently what must be the man's qualifications strong and silent subtle

00:40:50 #636 and cunning fighting wildness with wildness have you such a man sir I've sent to him

00:40:56 #637 but not a person

00:40:59 #638 what is it my dear I don't know why you were speaking

00:41:03 #639 Perhaps Charles might.

00:41:05 #640 Oh, don't say it, Clarissa, don't say it.

00:41:08 #641 Yes.

00:41:09 #642 Do say it, Clarissa.

00:41:11 #643 Do say it.

00:41:12 #644 Well, there's another kind of man who might be twice as useful.

00:41:15 #645 What kind?

00:41:16 #646 A man so honest that the robes would think him a rogue.

00:41:18 #647 So truthful that it's where he was lying.

00:41:20 #648 So simple that never fell in love.

00:41:22 #649 Why laugh at me, sir?

00:41:23 #650 I feel my polybithylene.

00:41:24 #651 Oh, but now that Charles, disgust.

00:41:26 #652 That has disgusted my stuff and despair.

00:41:28 #653 Why despair?

00:41:29 #654 The Queen's message.

00:41:30 #655 You have wondered.

00:41:31 #656 I wonder, you are a man.

00:41:33 #657 I need to be trusted with this mission after what I've done. Why not?

00:41:37 #658 Because I'm a useless, conceited,

00:41:39 #659 I learn a perfect, complete fool.

00:41:40 #660 Well, granting that. What?

00:41:42 #661 I didn't say it.

00:41:43 #662 But granting that, that's a very good reason for sending you.

00:41:45 #663 But I've failed already.

00:41:46 #664 Nearly all my successes are found on previous failures.

00:41:49 #665 On your own showing, no one will suspect you.

00:41:51 #666 You're going to meet all their cunning

00:41:53 #667 with that star-aid British face of yours,

00:41:55 #668 and the schemes will be disarmed. Come with me. Go. Will I go?

00:41:58 #669 Come.

00:41:59 #670 There's your man in action for his life.

00:42:02 #671 I warn you, there'll be grave danger.

00:42:06 #672 You ready to meet it?

00:42:07 #673 Yes, sir.

00:42:08 #674 I mean danger of death.

00:42:12 #675 Yes, sir?

00:42:13 #676 Yes.

00:42:15 #677 Every step of the way, every hour of the day,

00:42:18 #678 danger lucky in every disguise.

00:42:21 #679 When one sees an Egypt, if his errand be known,

00:42:23 #680 his life will not be worth a moment's purchase.

00:42:26 #681 Oh, I didn't know.

00:42:27 #682 I didn't know.

00:42:30 #683 Do you see my child? Do you forbid him to go?

00:42:33 #684 I cannot forbid.

00:42:35 #685 Well, if you can, he shall obey you.

00:42:38 #686 But think a moment. If you forbid and he obeys,

00:42:42 #687 and I send that other man, how will you feel?

00:42:46 #688 Clarissa.

00:42:48 #689 You must go.

00:42:49 #690 Well done.

00:42:51 #691 I think I'm going to tell you, may I not, that a great reward is waiting his return.

00:42:54 #692 If I succeed, whether you succeed or fail.

00:42:57 #693 Yes, sir.

00:42:58 #694 When can you be ready to start?

00:43:04 #695 I think I could start the day after tomorrow.

00:43:07 #696 Capital.

00:43:08 #697 That'll make the enterprise so much more interesting.

00:43:10 #698 How do you mean, sir?

00:43:11 #699 Well, Paul Jam will have 48 hours start with Ishmael.

00:43:14 #700 You mean I should be too late?

00:43:16 #701 I am trying to convey that impression.

00:43:19 #702 Well, tomorrow then, if it must be.

00:43:22 #703 Ah, that's better.

00:43:24 #704 Although Paul Jam can do a great deal in a day.

00:43:26 #705 Well, there's a nightmare tonight at nine.

00:43:30 #706 Now. Now you don't mean. I mean it ten minutes. But my luggage you can't even have a clean collar. Damn your collar.

00:43:36 #707 Cut the dope or express delivery from Jane Cross. You'll be in my cells tomorrow morning and then Cairo a day ahead of Fajam.

00:43:41 #708 A day ahead. Why so far do it? Of course you will. Now children, say goodbye to one another.

00:43:46 #709 While I write your instructions.

00:43:49 #710 Theresa. Did you hear what Mr. Disraelis said just now? The hope he held out of reward?

00:44:07 #711 If he had not said it, I should have.

00:44:10 #712 But a war will be mine if I succeed.

00:44:12 #713 Or if you fail.

00:44:13 #714 Oh.

00:44:15 #715 Clarissa, do you love me then?

00:44:17 #716 I love you.

00:44:22 #717 Time's up.

00:44:24 #718 Ready, sir.

00:44:25 #719 Now then, here's all you need.

00:44:27 #720 Money, instructions, and the code for telegrams.

00:44:31 #721 I keep the duplicate.

00:44:32 #722 Now be up.

00:44:33 #723 No, no.

00:44:34 #724 The purchase should be sudden.

00:44:39 #725 Good luck. Goodbye.

00:44:40 #726 Good luck.

00:44:41 #727 Goodbye.

00:44:42 #728 Good luck.

00:44:50 #729 And God bless you.

00:45:03 #730 Well, now then.

00:45:04 #731 What am I to do? What am I to do?

00:45:07 #732 Would you care to go for a drive?

00:45:12 #733 Oh, you're a heartless man. How am I to wait?

00:45:15 #734 How am I to wait?

00:45:16 #735 You? You don't love him.

00:45:18 #736 No. Then why did I send him?

00:45:20 #737 Listen, I've got an idea.

00:45:22 #738 What?

00:45:23 #739 Come into the country and feed peacocks.

00:45:24 #740 Peacock?

00:45:25 #741 Very noble and intelligent birds, I assure you.

00:45:27 #742 Peacock.

00:45:29 #743 Well, I say they are intelligent birds.

00:45:36 #744 Hey, master, where are we going without speed?

00:45:39 #745 What?

00:45:40 #746 Oh, I bless my soul.

00:45:49 #747 And them dirty boobs.

00:45:52 #748 Splendid morning's work, eh, butter?

00:45:54 #749 Don't blame me if you've caught your death.

00:45:57 #750 Caught my death? What do you mean?

00:46:00 #751 It is well known you ought to be in your bed.

00:46:03 #752 Why?

00:46:04 #753 I don't know.

00:46:06 #754 be in your bed. Why? I'm not ill. You're sure? Mortal bad, you are. Says so in print. Oh,

00:46:16 #755 where? Last night's grove. I read it with me own eyes. A highly respectable sheet.

00:46:23 #756 And what does it say? Says Dr. Williams have the seed going in and out here. And that'd

00:46:31 #757 be true to for he just drove by and left this bottle of stuff for me. No no. A Lady

00:46:45 #758 Beckinsfield very kind of the to be so anxious about me. Dr Williams has been

00:46:56 #759 here twice to see Lady Beckinsfield who had a painting. That's all. Oh then

00:47:05 #760 London newspapers. My coffee.

00:47:14 #761 Not as a basket. Good morning sir.

00:47:18 #762 You miss the same I believe so.

00:47:22 #763 They do close up yes sir.

00:47:31 #764 Morning. Morning my dear.

00:47:42 #766 it shouldn't it are you so deeply in love dreadfully you had breakfast breakfast

00:47:49 #767 tell me how the secret about this is covered yes you've heard from her not a

00:47:56 #768 sound she's keeping very quiet I don't like people keep quiet she might do a

00:48:02 #769 great deal of mystery so Lady Beckinsfield has persuaded her to come here today I

00:48:09 #770 I want to have that glorious creature where I can see her.

00:48:15 #771 Ah, Mary, my dear.

00:48:18 #772 Good morning, Dizzy.

00:48:20 #773 And a good night?

00:48:21 #774 Of course I have. Left like a talk.

00:48:24 #775 Sure.

00:48:25 #776 Now, Teresa listened to him. He doubts everybody's world. He doubts mine.

00:48:30 #777 I never can believe anything you say about yourself, Mary.

00:48:34 #778 You know what this foolish woman did as the while go?

00:48:38 #779 She drove with me one night to the House of Commons,

00:48:40 #780 when I had to make a very important speech.

00:48:43 #781 The footman slammed the carriage door and trust her finger in it. Oh.

00:48:47 #782 Yes, that poor finger.

00:48:50 #783 And because she knew how distressed I should be,

00:48:53 #784 she never asked herself,

00:48:55 #785 but bore the agony unflinchingly,

00:48:58 #786 and I knew nothing about it until I got home.

00:49:01 #787 Oh, how wonderful.

00:49:03 #788 Which of you are married, my dear?

00:49:05 #789 You'll be doing just as wonderful things and thinking just as little of them.

00:49:10 #790 Well, if you're telling the truth, you should have your morning offering.

00:49:17 #791 Clarissa, never leave to my house before this day, promise.

00:49:21 #792 It worries him and heaven knows he has worries enough without that.

00:49:26 #793 Is anything the matter?

00:49:28 #794 Nothing. Nothing to make a fuss about.

00:49:32 #795 Dr. Williams says I must be careful. I am, so that's all right.

00:49:36 #796 Now, mine, not a word to dizzy.

00:49:39 #797 A crushed finger again?

00:49:41 #798 Lately. Every day for his sake.

00:49:44 #799 The last rose of summer.

00:49:48 #800 Thank you, dizzy.

00:49:50 #801 Telegram, sir.

00:49:52 #802 Thank you, Mr. Best.

00:49:58 #803 Open it, open it, open it.

00:50:00 #804 Mary, do look after that silly child.

00:50:03 #805 Why, I read this telegram from Matt Taylor.

00:50:06 #806 I have a pity state.

00:50:11 #807 Excuse from Carol.

00:50:12 #808 What is a state?

00:50:13 #809 The celery is right to cut.

00:50:19 #810 Well, I must say, I hardly think it is worthwhile going to the experiment.

00:50:23 #811 What does it mean?

00:50:24 #812 A great deal more than it says.

00:50:26 #813 Look.

00:50:27 #814 What's that?

00:50:28 #815 A copy of the code I gave him. See?

00:50:30 #816 The celery is right to cut.

00:50:32 #817 The parallel sentence, the sewers can now, patches is completed,

00:50:35 #818 and the check accepted.

00:50:36 #819 You did it! You did it!

00:50:37 #820 You're too powerful.

00:50:39 #821 Let her cry now, let her cry. It's worth it.

00:50:45 #822 I'll never cry. It's worth it.

00:50:47 #823 How glad you must be.

00:50:49 #824 Glad. For now that other dream of mine will be realized.

00:50:53 #825 What dream?

00:50:54 #826 To make my sovereign Empress of India.

00:50:56 #827 Empress of India?

00:50:58 #828 Ah, sounds well, Mary, doesn't it?

00:51:00 #829 Mary, you shall be my messenger by the time is ripe.

00:51:03 #830 You, Lady Begansfield, shall carry the news to our beloved Queen.

00:51:07 #831 And you shall be there, and you shall be proud

00:51:10 #832 when I stand up to announce the new title to our majesties Faithful Common.

00:51:14 #833 Yes, when will that be?

00:51:16 #834 Oh, sometimes to that.

00:51:18 #835 This must be firmly ratified.

00:51:20 #836 Public opinion must be created.

00:51:22 #837 Make haste, Missy.

00:51:24 #838 Impatient woman.

00:51:26 #839 We'll try to come back soon.

00:51:28 #840 That's another impatient woman, Mary.

00:51:30 #841 I'm a telegraphist to Myers.

00:51:33 #842 Myers made this thing possible.

00:51:35 #843 Another Jew, Mary.

00:51:37 #844 There'll be a carriage for him.

00:51:41 #845 How furious, old prolete will be.

00:51:45 #846 Ha ha ha ha.

00:51:49 #847 Hugh Myers, London Wall.

00:51:50 #848 The sewers can now purchase the completed and the check accepted.

00:51:54 #849 But you haven't answered my question.

00:51:56 #850 Would your house come home soon?

00:51:57 #851 Yes, with drums beating, trumpet blowing, flags flying.

00:52:00 #852 Oh, I don't care anything about that.

00:52:02 #853 And wedding bells ringing.

00:52:05 #854 A station cab.

00:52:07 #855 Could that be Mrs. Travers?

00:52:08 #856 Mrs. Travers?

00:52:10 #857 We can't have Mrs. Travers here now.

00:52:12 #858 She worms out of you in no time.

00:52:14 #859 She re-dumped both your faces.

00:52:15 #860 Did he? You made me invite her.

00:52:17 #861 Well, get rid of her. Send her away. Kill her.

00:52:19 #862 Oh, he.

00:52:21 #863 Put your wits together, both of you.

00:52:23 #864 I tell her, I'm very ill.

00:52:25 #865 I'm very ill indeed.

00:52:28 #866 Schumacher. Schumacher!

00:52:30 #867 Show me one.

00:52:31 #868 That's splendid!

00:52:32 #869 Is it possible he's had the news?

00:52:34 #870 The charge of tabled him?

00:52:35 #871 No, no. But these millionaires know everything

00:52:37 #872 by a sort of instinct.

00:52:38 #873 Mm-hmm.

00:52:39 #874 If he's come to tell us, don't spoil his effect.

00:52:42 #875 Don't tell him. I'll spring it on him later.

00:52:45 #876 Ah, Mr. Myers, delighted to see you. Good morning.

00:52:48 #877 Good morning.

00:52:49 #878 How do you do, Mr. Myers?

00:52:51 #879 Lady Teresa Pevincy, you know.

00:52:53 #880 What a happy win.

00:52:54 #881 Can I have a few moments in private with you, sir?

00:52:56 #882 All these ladies...

00:52:57 #883 Forgive me if I insist.

00:53:00 #884 Well, of course.

00:53:02 #885 Mary.

00:53:03 #886 You'll stay for luncheon.

00:53:04 #887 I'm sorry, that is impossible. But thank you very much.

00:53:08 #888 Come, Teresa.

00:53:09 #889 I want you to hear me first.

00:53:11 #890 What I have to say...

00:53:13 #891 Well...

00:53:15 #892 Sit down. Sit down.

00:53:17 #893 Well...

00:53:20 #894 I don't know how to tell you.

00:53:22 #895 So much harder than I expected.

00:53:32 #896 Come, come.

00:53:34 #897 Tell me.

00:53:35 #898 Mr. Disraeli, I...

00:53:38 #899 I...

00:53:40 #900 I am bankrupt.

00:53:42 #901 I don't know what to say.

00:53:44 #902 I am bankrupt.

00:53:49 #903 I didn't quite catch.

00:53:54 #904 Our house is bankrupt.

00:53:57 #905 Bankrupt?

00:54:01 #906 My is bankrupt?

00:54:03 #907 You mad?

00:54:04 #908 I wished to God I were.

00:54:07 #909 You mean you are temporarily pressed,

00:54:09 #910 you're in temporary difficulties.

00:54:11 #911 I mean we are bankrupt.

00:54:13 #912 All right, there are things impossible.

00:54:15 #913 That's the truth.

00:54:16 #914 A house like yours in historical form,

00:54:18 #915 you might as well say that Bank of England...

00:54:21 #916 So I should have bought it.

00:54:22 #917 What are you doing?

00:54:24 #918 Stop. It's not our fault.

00:54:26 #919 Well, first, a ship with a bullion from the Argentine.

00:54:36 #920 Yes.

00:54:37 #921 Calm down.

00:54:39 #922 What?

00:54:43 #923 You mean?

00:54:44 #924 I mean purposely and criminally.

00:54:47 #925 All the crew saved are conspiracies.

00:54:50 #926 It would take weeks, months to recover the insurance,

00:54:53 #927 and that is not all.

00:54:54 #928 And for a long time, ever since our interview in Downing Street,

00:54:58 #929 Rumors affecting my credit have been spread abroad,

00:55:01 #930 and now this mysterious wreck has been pressed.

00:55:05 #931 An enormous power has been working in the dark.

00:55:10 #932 My liabilities have been brought up.

00:55:12 #933 I feel as angry as you like.

00:55:15 #934 You're justified.

00:55:16 #935 I've been an honest man all my life,

00:55:19 #936 and now I come before you in the light of a common cheat.

00:55:25 #937 Oh, Mr. Myers, I know you, sir.

00:55:39 #938 You see some powers behind activities. Who do you mean?

00:55:54 #939 I don't know. They're working through an agent.

00:55:56 #940 But who is that?

00:55:57 #941 Samuel Lewis.

00:55:58 #942 The great solicitor.

00:55:59 #943 Yes. Has anyone else known?

00:56:00 #944 Not a living soul.

00:56:01 #945 I've come to you first because, of course, we cannot carry out the canal contract.

00:56:11 #946 Thank heaven I'm in time. Thank heaven that has not gone through.

00:56:17 #947 When will it be known, Mars?

00:56:34 #948 When will it be known?

00:56:36 #949 Tonight, tomorrow morning.

00:56:40 #950 The Lord shall not!

00:56:42 #951 Get back to town quickly. Stay there.

00:56:44 #952 I have a theory of there.

00:56:46 #953 Don't budge. Keep there all night.

00:56:48 #954 Don't breathe a word of this.

00:56:50 #955 Don't let anyone else. Don't give the slightest hint of anything unusual.

00:56:52 #956 Treat the wreck lightly.

00:56:54 #957 Watch your words. Watch your looks.

00:56:56 #958 Something may happen. Something shall happen.

00:56:58 #959 What, sir? What?

00:57:00 #960 What?

00:57:06 #961 Mr. Disraeli.

00:57:43 #962 Mary.

00:57:54 #963 Yes, dear?

00:58:07 #964 What is it?

00:58:09 #965 Mary, you stood by me in many horrible predicaments.

00:58:14 #966 I'm in the worst I was ever in.

00:58:17 #967 Dizzy.

00:58:18 #968 Myles.

00:58:19 #969 Myles is bankrupt.

00:58:23 #970 Does that mean we are poor?

00:58:25 #971 No.

00:58:27 #972 Oh.

00:58:28 #973 If that were all. Then?

00:58:30 #974 Myles was finding the money at the canal.

00:58:31 #975 Wait. Difford has passed the check. Now Myers has failed, we can't pay.

00:58:36 #976 And you?

00:58:38 #977 I?

00:58:39 #978 Yes, dear. I want to know how this will affect you.

00:58:45 #979 What does that matter?

00:58:46 #980 It's all that matters to me.

00:58:49 #981 I hadn't thought of that. What will happen to me is grace.

00:59:02 #982 race. I turned it free. The kind of this grace no man can bear. No man can live.

00:59:15 #983 Yes I have now will be our face the nation. I bear it alone not alone.

00:59:28 #984 Then God for you man.

00:59:30 #985 Thank God.

00:59:31 #986 Tell me anything yet.

00:59:39 #987 Soon what could I do?

00:59:41 #988 We could go up to town.

00:59:43 #989 Count, I can't move secretly.

00:59:46 #990 The Prime Minister can't stop without saying the whole word of God.

00:59:49 #991 The papers have said I'm ill.

00:59:50 #992 If I ever see him down in the street now during the recess when I'm supposed to be here,

00:59:54 #993 every newspaper in the world will go to jail.

00:59:56 #994 It's a horrible matter.

00:59:58 #995 I'm found, hang and put.

01:00:01 #996 Mrs. Travis.

01:00:02 #997 What?

01:00:03 #998 Mrs. Travis in a station cabs are.

01:00:05 #999 I'll get rid of her.

01:00:06 #1000 Get rid of that?

01:00:07 #1001 Mr. Daskip, ask her to wait.

01:00:08 #1002 Turn him and Irene.

01:00:09 #1003 Surely you'll not deceive her now?

01:00:10 #1004 You must keep her here.

01:00:12 #1005 Why?

01:00:13 #1006 She must stay here.

01:00:14 #1007 We mustn't let her out of our sight.

01:00:33 #1008 Amille.

01:00:34 #1009 Very ill.

01:00:35 #1010 The newspaper says, said Amille, she shall see the sickest man she ever saw in her life.

01:00:42 #1011 Mrs. Carter this year, shall I send her away?

01:00:45 #1012 No, no, no.

01:00:46 #1013 Chana.

01:00:47 #1014 Hand and foot.

01:00:49 #1015 Amille.

01:00:50 #1016 Very ill.

01:00:54 #1017 Very well.

01:01:10 #1018 Mrs. Travers.

01:01:12 #1019 Oh dear, Lady Beckham-Steel.

01:01:16 #1020 I'm so sorry.

01:01:18 #1021 I heard Mr. Disraeli was ill.

01:01:20 #1022 I didn't know whether to come or not.

01:01:23 #1023 I'm sure you can't want to see me.

01:01:25 #1024 Isn't Mrs. Travers being...

01:01:27 #1025 Yes, dear.

01:01:29 #1026 Oh.

01:01:32 #1027 Dear Mrs. Travers.

01:01:35 #1028 They're so good of you.

01:01:37 #1029 I'm very weak.

01:01:39 #1030 Very weak.

01:01:41 #1031 I'm so sorry.

01:01:43 #1032 What is the matter?

01:01:45 #1033 Well, I'm...

01:01:47 #1034 I'm very weak.

01:01:49 #1035 I'm very glad to see you.

01:01:51 #1036 You're so bright.

01:01:53 #1037 You're so young.

01:01:55 #1038 So...

01:01:57 #1039 how's your poor husband?

01:01:59 #1040 Still abroad, in search of health, you know.

01:02:03 #1041 Very sad.

01:02:05 #1042 And you've come to see the poor, sick man.

01:02:08 #1043 Isn't it good of her marriage?

01:02:10 #1044 Yes, dear.

01:02:11 #1045 So do sit down.

01:02:13 #1046 There.

01:02:14 #1047 Where I can see you.

01:02:18 #1048 Miss Clarissa.

01:02:20 #1049 More beautiful every day.

01:02:23 #1050 I saw the dear Duchess, your mother yesterday.

01:02:26 #1051 She seems very anxious about Lord Deeper.

01:02:29 #1052 He's abroad too, isn't he?

01:02:31 #1053 Uh, is your poor somewhere?

01:02:33 #1054 Yes, he is abroad.

01:02:35 #1055 Yes, he is in Egypt.

01:02:38 #1056 I do hope he's not too venison.

01:02:40 #1057 Cairo is such a dreadful place.

01:02:43 #1058 Those orientals, you know.

01:02:45 #1059 One can never trust them.

01:02:47 #1060 No.

01:02:48 #1061 So fly.

01:02:49 #1062 Yeah.

01:02:50 #1063 And defeatful.

01:02:51 #1064 Ah, dear sympathetic creature.

01:02:55 #1065 Isn't she sympathetic now?

01:02:57 #1066 Yes, dear.

01:02:58 #1067 But don't be uneasy.

01:03:00 #1068 Easy. We've just heard from the first.

01:03:06 #1069 Indeed.

01:03:08 #1070 Mary.

01:03:09 #1071 Yes, dear.

01:03:11 #1072 The time I have my beef tea.

01:03:15 #1073 You say you have her.

01:03:17 #1074 This is Travis.

01:03:23 #1075 Oh, or from the defect.

01:03:26 #1076 Oh, yes. We have a telegram.

01:03:32 #1077 Where is that telegram, Mary?

01:03:35 #1078 On the table, dear.

01:03:36 #1079 Help me up, dear.

01:03:37 #1080 Why, there it is, under the paperweight.

01:03:47 #1081 Read it for yourself, Mrs. Trevour.

01:03:50 #1082 Heavens, how pale I am.

01:04:04 #1083 The celery is ripe to cut.

01:04:07 #1084 How odd.

01:04:09 #1085 Yes. Why odd?

01:04:12 #1086 Well, that anyone should cable all the way from Egypt about celery.

01:04:16 #1087 Well, you know, he's engaged in a very interesting agricultural experiment.

01:04:21 #1088 experiment you remember we were discussing that very subject to the garden party party

01:04:29 #1089 that was and all this.

01:04:32 #1090 Lord Jesus.

01:04:39 #1092 A twin thank you so much I've been trying to remember his name all day probably very

01:04:55 #1093 proud of them and of the phone I've heard so much about them may I have a look

01:04:59 #1094 at them. The cold. I'll show you their houses.

01:05:19 #1095 Oh please don't trouble. No problem. Mary. You know the proper country place

01:05:37 #1097 the carriage. Wait. This is travels cab still there. Yes. You can take that. But

01:05:44 #1098 if you refuse to come to terms of life and death. This is trouble. Look after

01:05:50 #1099 I want that woman alone. That must be science.

01:05:54 #1100 Yes, they are beautiful and so tame.

01:06:00 #1101 You're so glad you like them.

01:06:10 #1102 They do come and sit down.

01:06:12 #1103 I really ought to be going.

01:06:14 #1104 Oh, you do sit down.

01:06:17 #1105 A lady beckons fear that Clarissa

01:06:26 #1106 have to go and meet the specialist.

01:06:28 #1107 We shall be gone only a very few moments.

01:06:30 #1108 Come, Clarissa.

01:06:31 #1109 Oh, are you going to be gone?

01:06:33 #1110 I'm not going to be gone.

01:06:35 #1111 Come, Curie, sir. Oh, are you so ill?

01:06:42 #1112 Yeah. But he'll cure me. He'll cure me.

01:06:47 #1113 And you shall stay and nest the poor sick man.

01:06:51 #1114 I'm dreadfully sorry.

01:06:52 #1115 Oh, you must.

01:06:59 #1116 Till they come back.

01:07:01 #1117 But my cab is waiting.

01:07:03 #1118 No. I've sent that away.

01:07:06 #1119 Really?

01:07:08 #1120 Don't be angry.

01:07:11 #1121 What a dainty hand.

01:07:16 #1122 That's apple finger.

01:07:18 #1123 So long and thin.

01:07:24 #1124 So exquisitely shaped.

01:07:26 #1125 Oh, please.

01:07:28 #1126 So quick to grasp things.

01:07:31 #1127 Unconsidered trifles.

01:07:33 #1128 Scraps of paper.

01:07:35 #1129 Oh, just let me go. You're hurting me.

01:07:37 #1130 You said you're hurrying to get away from the poor sick men?

01:07:40 #1131 To get away and read the code?

01:07:45 #1132 Well, what are we?

01:07:49 #1133 Ah, that's better. That's how I remember you.

01:07:53 #1134 Remember me?

01:07:54 #1135 So strange when we first met at the Duke of Blattenbridge.

01:07:59 #1136 I remembered you, but I couldn't place you.

01:08:03 #1137 I connected you with something blue and white.

01:08:06 #1138 Milk and water?

01:08:07 #1139 No. Snow and water.

01:08:11 #1140 Mont Blanc on the lake of Geneva.

01:08:14 #1141 Geneva in the 60s.

01:08:16 #1142 Russian refugees and their English sympathizers.

01:08:19 #1143 A man called Lumley and his ravishing...

01:08:24 #1144 Shall I say white?

01:08:25 #1145 No, comrade. That was the term.

01:08:28 #1146 Charming relationship. Delightful couple.

01:08:31 #1147 So good to the unhappy exiles.

01:08:33 #1148 The people of Kroil, they said the good Mr. Lumley

01:08:37 #1149 and his charming comrade were agents.

01:08:40 #1150 He coys in Russian pay,

01:08:42 #1151 engaged in warming up the secrets of the refugees,

01:08:45 #1152 Intending them back to Russia, to Siberia, to death.

01:08:52 #1153 You pray? What is all this to do with me?

01:08:56 #1154 What indeed? With you, the friend of Duke Sumbancher.

01:09:02 #1155 Good Mr. Lumley and his charming comrade were driven out of Geneva by the Slanders.

01:09:08 #1156 And where do you think I saw him next? In Downing Street.

01:09:13 #1157 He had changed his name to Folger.

01:09:15 #1158 I was so sorry for him that I gave him work.

01:09:18 #1159 But you did more.

01:09:20 #1160 You gave him instruction to hurry to Trieste.

01:09:27 #1161 Now do I know you, dear Mrs. Lumley-Travers-Folger?

01:09:34 #1162 Well? And what next?

01:09:38 #1163 Admirations.

01:09:41 #1164 Profound admiration until this moment.

01:09:47 #1165 Today you've disappointed me.

01:09:50 #1166 Why steal that?

01:09:52 #1167 Weak. Very weak.

01:09:55 #1168 You had only to ask me and I would have told you.

01:09:57 #1169 The celery is ripe to cut.

01:09:59 #1170 Means the sewers can now purchase is completed and the check accepted.

01:10:06 #1171 Why, dear Lumley, has had all that tiresome journey for nothing?

01:10:10 #1172 Your out of face boy has blundered into success.

01:10:16 #1173 Well, that's all any of us do, Mrs. Travers.

01:10:19 #1174 A success that will cost you dear.

01:10:21 #1175 That's the sort of thing Gladstone will say.

01:10:24 #1176 It's what the world will say when it knows that Myles is bankrupt.

01:10:30 #1177 Who knows what?

01:10:31 #1178 Myles is bankrupt.

01:10:36 #1179 Travis, I'm very weak.

01:10:38 #1180 Don't... don't jest with me.

01:10:40 #1181 Myles is bankrupt.

01:10:43 #1182 And his checks, wait, take it.

01:10:44 #1183 Wait, wait.

01:10:46 #1184 It's easy for you to tell me this, but why should I believe you?

01:10:50 #1185 Because it was my invention.

01:10:53 #1186 You thought to circumvent me with your apple-faced boy.

01:10:56 #1187 What you say now, Mr. Desiree.

01:11:02 #1188 You can't expect me to say much.

01:11:04 #1189 I am a child in your hand.

01:11:15 #1190 Desiree, I'm sorry to hear that you're ill.

01:11:18 #1191 I'm so much better.

01:11:20 #1192 It is Traverse Timulating Company.

01:11:23 #1193 Then Michael Proberts.

01:11:24 #1194 How do you do?

01:11:26 #1195 But he's not her.

01:11:27 #1196 A specialist?

01:11:29 #1197 Oh, yes he is.

01:11:30 #1198 Why, what's going on?

01:11:31 #1199 If you're not you, why have you sent for?

01:11:33 #1200 Robert, sit down.

01:11:35 #1201 I want to tell you a little story.

01:11:37 #1202 Now don't go, Mrs. Travers.

01:11:40 #1203 This may interest you too.

01:11:42 #1204 I repeat, why have you sent for?

01:11:46 #1205 I told you I might send for you.

01:11:48 #1206 When? What do you mean?

01:11:49 #1207 When we had our last delightful interview.

01:11:51 #1208 Ha! I thought as much.

01:11:53 #1209 Your hair, brain, skin.

01:11:55 #1210 Moses has failed you and you had to give it up.

01:11:58 #1211 Well, it's no use appealing to me.

01:12:00 #1212 Moses has not failed me

01:12:02 #1213 And I carried the scheme through.

01:12:06 #1214 You mean to tell me that you have purchased the Suez Canal?

01:12:09 #1215 The power and the glory of my country but at stake.

01:12:12 #1216 I had to act quickly and I had to act on my own responsibility.

01:12:15 #1217 Then let me tell you, sir, you have committed a crime.

01:12:18 #1218 Parliament was not sitting to vote for the money.

01:12:19 #1219 I had to seek it elsewhere.

01:12:21 #1220 Five million sterile. You refused.

01:12:23 #1221 I did and I'm proud of it.

01:12:24 #1222 So I went to the wealthiest private firm, the Hugh Myers.

01:12:27 #1223 Huh! A Jew.

01:12:29 #1224 Myers not being a potty man but a patriot.

01:12:32 #1225 saw the greatness of the ideas to buy me.

01:12:34 #1226 I sent D.F.E. to Ishmael.

01:12:36 #1227 Spies got wind of what I was doing in Russia and you.

01:12:38 #1228 So D.F.E. had to go in a hurry, or race for an empire.

01:12:41 #1229 He had succeeded, understand me?

01:12:43 #1230 I put them at it quite simply.

01:12:45 #1231 D.F.E. had bought the canal and has paid for it

01:12:48 #1232 with Mayer's cheque drawn on the Bank of England wait.

01:12:52 #1233 Meanwhile, Russia has been at work

01:12:55 #1234 by the intermediary of one of the most charming women

01:12:59 #1235 of my queen.

01:13:02 #1236 Myers is bankrupt. What?

01:13:03 #1237 Yes.

01:13:04 #1238 Russia has ruined it.

01:13:06 #1239 Mr. Israeli, I warned you of this.

01:13:08 #1240 I foresaw it.

01:13:10 #1241 Your high-handed action has landed you just where I said it would.

01:13:14 #1242 You must get out of it as best you can.

01:13:16 #1243 It's no use appealing to me.

01:13:17 #1244 No.

01:13:18 #1245 Then I will not appeal to you.

01:13:20 #1246 I will command you.

01:13:21 #1247 What?

01:13:24 #1248 You'll stand this note, giving Myers unlimited credit.

01:13:27 #1249 Aye, are you mad?

01:13:29 #1250 I was never much seen in my life.

01:13:30 #1251 Myers position is safe.

01:13:32 #1252 We can gain time.

01:13:33 #1253 The Bank of England must give him unlimited credit today, now.

01:13:37 #1254 You don't know what you're saying.

01:13:38 #1255 You don't know to whom you're speaking. I refuse... You can't!

01:13:41 #1256 I refuse in particular.

01:13:43 #1257 You've mistaken your man.

01:13:44 #1258 I'm an Englishman.

01:13:45 #1259 The head of a great national institution.

01:13:47 #1260 And I am not to be ordered about by a...

01:13:50 #1261 by an alien, but you...

01:13:52 #1262 If it's alien, the Jew happens to be the better citizen.

01:13:55 #1263 Moreover, he happens to be Prime Minister.

01:13:57 #1264 You threaten me?

01:13:58 #1265 Yes, if you'll pass me to a...

01:13:59 #1266 Oh, I'm kid-wrench.

01:14:00 #1267 You think so? You say the Bank is a national institution?

01:14:03 #1268 What becomes of that title refuses to save the nation.

01:14:06 #1269 What becomes of you? Mr. Disgrating!

01:14:07 #1270 It is known that the lack of patriotism of one man

01:14:10 #1271 has faced our country in the position of a person

01:14:12 #1272 who is trying to pass a fortune and check.

01:14:13 #1273 Exposed the nation to the ridicule of the world.

01:14:16 #1274 Lost the canal, lost India.

01:14:17 #1275 Death of England, free to disgrace our

01:14:19 #1276 vows for the mud.

01:14:21 #1277 What becomes of the bank you can't touch today?

01:14:23 #1278 I'll smash the bank!

01:14:26 #1279 Parliament's branch of the bank is charter.

01:14:28 #1280 Parliament's hammers dried.

01:14:29 #1281 And showers dried in my bidding.

01:14:31 #1282 Your border directors will be swept away.

01:14:33 #1283 Your share of the bank's left.

01:14:34 #1284 The bank ruined a new displace.

01:14:37 #1285 I am Prime Minister.

01:14:38 #1286 I can do this, and if you don't sign, by God, I will.

01:15:18 #1287 I've signed it.

01:15:21 #1288 I've signed it to save the bank.

01:15:32 #1289 I don't know, Rach, that a man like you

01:15:36 #1290 should have such power.

01:15:38 #1291 Really, thank God you have such power.

01:16:26 #1292 I hadn't, dear child, but he doesn't know that.

01:17:09 #1293 She must know I can't be disturbed.

01:17:11 #1294 Let her sleep as long as possible.

01:17:14 #1295 Yes, sir.

01:17:28 #1296 Well?

01:17:30 #1297 We can't tell.

01:17:31 #1298 I'm very hopeful of the result of this deep sleep,

01:17:34 #1299 but I can't say anything more of present.

01:17:40 #1300 I can't go.

01:17:42 #1301 I can't leave her like this.

01:17:43 #1302 Mr. Disraeli, I know how you feel, but you must go.

01:17:48 #1303 I feel bound to remind you that Queen Victoria

01:17:50 #1304 is going to attend your reception in person.

01:17:53 #1305 That is an honor she has never before paid to a prime minister.

01:17:56 #1306 All the courts will be there.

01:17:58 #1307 Every country in the world will be represented

01:18:01 #1308 and all to pay homage to you.

01:18:05 #1309 Mary won't do that.

01:18:09 #1310 You know she always loved people that much.

01:18:12 #1311 And all England will be at your feet tonight.

01:18:14 #1312 Mary won't do that.

01:18:23 #1313 I promised her that we would meet the Queen hand in hand.

01:18:31 #1314 How can I go through it?

01:18:33 #1315 The glitter, the music, the dancing,

01:18:38 #1316 And worst of all, the congratulations alone.

01:18:45 #1317 You've always been a fighter, Mr. Disraeli.

01:18:47 #1318 If it were possible for you to stay, I would advise it.

01:18:51 #1319 But you cannot break faith with Her Majesty.

01:18:55 #1320 The Queen would understand and pardon me.

01:18:58 #1321 But you are right.

01:19:01 #1322 I cannot break faith for the nation.

01:19:03 #1323 I must go.

01:19:16 #1324 If there's any change for the worse, I'll send you a telegram

01:19:19 #1325 and you can be home in a few hours.

01:19:23 #1326 Home.

01:19:25 #1327 Without her...

01:19:28 #1328 I have no home.

01:19:29 #1329 Since she waits...

01:19:59 #1330 you have this from me.

01:20:34 #1331 What a day this has been for Dizzy.

01:20:36 #1332 Abel Linder?

01:20:37 #1333 It's all very astonishing.

01:20:38 #1334 They say the Queen is delighted with her new title,

01:20:41 #1335 Empress of India.

01:20:42 #1336 And how this really swayed the house

01:20:44 #1337 when he announced the new title.

01:20:46 #1338 Even led to her title.

01:20:49 #1339 Dizzy is a great man.

01:20:50 #1340 Oh, Father, so you've come round to that at last.

01:20:53 #1341 Well, there's no use denying it now.

01:20:57 #1342 I never deny it, it's great.

01:21:00 #1343 Well, Miles, on your legs again.

01:21:02 #1344 Thanks to you, Sir Knight.

01:21:04 #1345 Yes, yes. Great patriotic idea.

01:21:07 #1346 Dizzy and I talked it over long before you came into it.

01:21:10 #1347 Still he told me.

01:21:11 #1348 And the bank was a great patriotic institution.

01:21:14 #1349 Couldn't let it go.

01:21:15 #1350 How fortunate you saw it in that land.

01:21:18 #1351 Let to help you. Let to help you.

01:21:22 #1352 Lady Clarissa, the background.

01:21:24 #1353 Deford has come home.

01:21:25 #1354 Yes, but think of it.

01:21:26 #1355 I've not been allowed to see him yet.

01:21:28 #1356 Too bad. Too bad. Why not?

01:21:31 #1357 You only arrived half an hour ago and had to come straight to Downing Street.

01:21:34 #1358 Naturally.

01:21:37 #1359 They say Lady Beckinsfield is ill.

01:21:39 #1360 Mr. Miles, I'm bed free.

01:21:41 #1361 Nothing serious, I hope.

01:21:42 #1362 I don't know.

01:21:44 #1363 Can I down toss Mr. Desiree?

01:21:46 #1364 Her absence tonight is such a horrible disappointment.

01:21:49 #1365 Of course, of course.

01:21:51 #1366 Mr. Disraelis.

01:21:54 #1367 Mr. Disraelis, come here.

01:21:56 #1368 Yeah, Mr. Disraelis.

01:22:19 #1369 Lady proper.

01:22:21 #1370 Charm. Charm.

01:22:22 #1371 Oh, sorry, dearest lady back in the field.

01:22:28 #1372 Cannot be here tonight.

01:22:31 #1373 So is she.

01:22:33 #1374 And so am I.

01:22:35 #1375 So am I.

01:22:36 #1376 No doubt only a part in this position.

01:22:45 #1377 My dear child.

01:22:46 #1378 How is she? Really?

01:22:48 #1379 Don't ask me.

01:22:50 #1380 I daren't trust myself to speak.

01:22:53 #1381 I'm horribly anxious.

01:22:55 #1382 Dr. Williams reassured me,

01:22:57 #1383 or I shouldn't be here now.

01:22:59 #1384 Not even to meet...

01:23:01 #1385 the Empress of India.

01:23:10 #1386 Her Majesty...

01:23:12 #1387 is on her way.

01:23:14 #1388 Before she arrives,

01:23:16 #1389 I want to thank those men

01:23:18 #1390 who have so splendidly stood at my side

01:23:21 #1391 and made our enterprise successful.

01:23:23 #1392 First, there is my friend Mr. Hugh Miles.

01:23:27 #1393 Mr. Miles, concerning whose services I cannot speak too highly.

01:23:35 #1394 Next, there is the Michael Probert.

01:23:38 #1395 At a moment of grave crisis, he came to my aid against his, shall I say, a prejudice.

01:23:46 #1396 Mr. Miles, the Michael Probert, it is my privilege to inform you

01:23:51 #1397 to inform you that in recognition of your patriotic action, your sovereign has bestowed a peerage

01:23:58 #1398 upon each of you.

01:24:03 #1399 I congratulate you.

01:24:04 #1400 Thank you.

01:24:05 #1401 May I admire you?

01:24:07 #1402 Your grace is most kind.

01:24:09 #1403 Lastly, you will be glad to know that my young friend who carried through these delicate

01:24:15 #1404 negotiations with such conspicuous tactics, I refer to Charles Weicham-Deaford, arrived

01:24:22 #1405 in London half an hour ago.

01:24:24 #1406 Like arms default.

01:24:26 #1407 Huh.

01:24:30 #1408 Charles!

01:24:32 #1409 Our magister desires to confer the ribbon of the bath upon you

01:24:36 #1410 with her own hand.

01:24:40 #1411 Clarissa!

01:24:41 #1412 Charles!

01:24:42 #1413 My dear.

01:24:44 #1414 Oh, hang all these people.

01:24:46 #1415 Why didn't you come earlier?

01:24:48 #1416 Well, I had to see Dizzy and get into this rig.

01:24:51 #1417 My dear Mr. Mayer.

01:24:57 #1418 I beg your pardon, sir.

01:24:58 #1419 But this telegram has been waiting.

01:25:11 #1420 Charles, I'm frightened.

01:25:13 #1421 Lady Beckham's here has been very ill.

01:25:16 #1422 You don't mean it.

01:25:17 #1423 It may be news of her death.

01:25:59 #1424 Well, I didn't know.

01:26:03 #1425 But the doctor sent you a telegram, dear.

01:26:06 #1426 Yes.
