We thought it was the vicar.
l wouldn't trust the vicar with a fart.
Forgive me, my dear chap. l had no idea
we had the pleasure of your company.
John.
Bridget.
My dear friends.
Your labour is more important
than the Sabbath day?
We all need a day of rest.
Maybe your brother has the right idea.
Though it pains me to admit it.
l wish times were different, George...
..and we could have back
the respect we give to others.
lf you'll forgive me, then, George.
Mr Frampton demands
they be sent in this very week.
They are a work of great beauty.
When we create with our hands such harmony,
God is truly present.
BRlDGET:
He's been awake the whole night through.
(Light hammering and sanding)
Why don't you ask for more payment?
Because, George, if they don't like it,
they'll find someone else.
Yes.
But supposing all you carpenters
were to ask for more?
(Tapping)
MAN:
Arscott.Brown.
Buxton.
Sir. Sir, far be it for my friend here
to seek priority over his comrades.
Oh, dear.
Nor do we wish to take yourself
too obviously to task.
But, as l understand the alphabet...
(Mocking posh accent) ..do not the 'l' in 'Brine'
precede the 'O' in 'Brown'?
- And indeed the 'U' in 'Buxton'?
- (Workers chuckling)
ln time...comrade.
- Right.
- ln good time.
MAN:
Hammett.Lost a finger, have you, Hammett?
Or is it just you can't count?
(Chuckling)
Legg!
Loveless!
MAN AT DESK:
George first. James following.Let my brother go first. For l've not reconciled.
Not reconciled what?
My conscience.
Stanfield!
Do you call father or son?
l think there must be some mistake.
We should be getting nine shillings.
- Not eight.
- There's been no mistake, Mr Stanfield.
You must take it or leave it.
Brine!
MAN AT DESK:
Brine.Will you sign?
We haven't all day.
(Murmur of distant chatter)
Mother?
l'm hungry.
Let me in.
Mother!
(Sobs)
You mustn't touch. You can look
as much as you like, but don't touch.
- How much are they?
- Ten a penny.
- That isn't a bargain.
- They're a bargain at twice the price.
Wait.
A dozen then, a dozen for a penny.
l only have a half a penny.
l don't really sell ha'penny's worth.
But as a special favour to you,
five for an ha'penny.
Come on, Briney.
Afternoon.
Nice day.
- lnnit?
- lnnit?
What are you doing this afternoon, then?
Shall we go blackberry picking?
A bit of blackberry picking in the woods there?
What do you say?
What you do with blackberries,
you squash 'em all up...
..you rub them all over your face,
and you lick the juice off.
Be nice?
(They laugh)
Are you all right?
Go off for a walk up the woods, then?
(Girl squeals)
Hurry up.
(Whistles)
Hurry up.
Come here.
