The Paradise 2012 BBC S01E07 eng Subtitles

00:00:43,577 --> 00:00:47,Where are you young ladies off
to? Wedding shopping. Katherine...

00:00:47,748 --> 00:00:49,It is just to be a quiet affair.

00:00:50,417 --> 00:00:57,Nothing too ostentatious. Don't
worry, Papa. Enjoy yourself.

00:01:08,168 --> 00:01:11,I think you've chosen very well.
Thank you for your custom, madam.

00:01:12,339 --> 00:01:13,Good day.

00:01:13,607 --> 00:01:16,Psst! Psst!

00:01:21,415 --> 00:01:22,Here!

00:01:24,117 --> 00:01:30,Mr Chisholm? Lovett? Inside, sir.
With a customer. Business is brisk.

00:01:30,857 --> 00:01:35,There's been a small upturn.
Sufficient to justify an employee. A girl.

00:01:35,729 --> 00:01:39,Would that I knew his secret.
There's no secret, Mr Chisholm.

00:01:39,499 --> 00:01:40,We're selling neckties.

00:01:40,834 --> 00:01:44,You're free to look. Neckties? I see
he did not hire you for your brains.

00:01:45,339 --> 00:01:48,What good are neckties
to me? I'm a milliner.

00:01:48,342 --> 00:01:54,A milliner, girl. An artist,
trained in the Quartier Sentier.

00:01:54,381 --> 00:01:58,And now there's the ignominy of
seeing my customers desert me

00:01:58,051 --> 00:02:00,for the cheap thrill
of a glued felt hat or

00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,a machine-stitched
bonnet across the street.

00:02:03,824 --> 00:02:05,You shall not find me
peddling knick-knacks.

00:02:06,026 --> 00:02:10,It is simply a case of seeking
custom rather than waiting for it.

00:02:10,364 --> 00:02:11,Not blaming The Paradise,

00:02:11,798 --> 00:02:15,but using it as a reliable
source of passing trade.

00:02:15,202 --> 00:02:19,Which, with a little thought,
might benefit all of us.

00:02:19,139 --> 00:02:22,Lovett said this? Denise?
We have customers.

00:02:22,576 --> 00:02:24,There's no time
for talking to him.

00:02:27,881 --> 00:02:31,It's not the same, is it, without
her? It definitely feels lonely.

00:02:31,752 --> 00:02:34,You know, strange. Can
you stop harking on about it?

00:02:34,588 --> 00:02:37,It's all I've had for a week
now. Even the room feels colder.

00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:40,I could have sworn this morning
there was more of a chill about the bed.

00:02:40,827 --> 00:02:44,Denise this, Denise that. Like
she was Saint Miss Perfect.

00:02:44,898 --> 00:02:48,She was no saint, believe
me. Even the counter.

00:02:48,535 --> 00:02:51,What's wrong with the
counter? It's too quiet.

00:02:51,605 --> 00:02:55,Denise used to drum her fingers
on it just a touch. Come on, Clara.

00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:59,It's poetic. The pining of a
true friend for her companion.

00:02:59,613 --> 00:03:03,Seeing her absence in everything
- a counter, a cold breeze,

00:03:04,051 --> 00:03:05,a chamber pot.

00:03:05,952 --> 00:03:08,You see. If Denise had been here,
she'd have stood up for me. Oh, Lord.

00:03:08,922 --> 00:03:11,Heaven above! Denise used to make
me feel positive about any situation.

00:03:11,958 --> 00:03:14,If it's positive you want, you
see laughing boy over there?

00:03:15,228 --> 00:03:19,With Denise out of the way,
he's all yours for the taking.

00:03:28,575 --> 00:03:33,Darling little glasses. We shall
need a dozen at least. No, two.

00:03:34,181 --> 00:03:36,And the same with
the champagne flutes.

00:03:37,751 --> 00:03:43,Look. The butter dishes are
beautifully engraved. How adorable!

00:03:43,323 --> 00:03:48,I shall take four and
these darling butter knives.

00:03:48,595 --> 00:03:50,Katherine? Don't look.

00:03:50,697 --> 00:03:53,There are surprises here that
you in particular should not see.

00:03:54,167 --> 00:03:57,Everything we shall need
for our wedding breakfast.

00:03:57,237 --> 00:04:00,Really? I shall need an
assistant. It's an awfully long list.

00:04:00,974 --> 00:04:06,Where is that girl, the clever
one? Denise. She has left the store.

00:04:06,980 --> 00:04:08,No scandal, I trust? No.

00:04:08,749 --> 00:04:10,She's gone to work for
her uncle across the street.

00:04:10,984 --> 00:04:14,Emily, you have met my
fiance? Lady Fortescue.

00:04:15,188 --> 00:04:17,He is in no way to be trusted.

00:04:17,524 --> 00:04:20,Moray cannot bear to
have things kept from him.

00:04:20,460 --> 00:04:23,We must have these
wrapped immediately.

00:04:23,163 --> 00:04:24,Might I speak with you?

00:04:27,434 --> 00:04:29,Throughout our courtship,
you barely purchased

00:04:29,636 --> 00:04:32,so much as a
hatpin from my store.

00:04:32,305 --> 00:04:37,Now this? With your friends
accompanying? What new game is this?

00:04:37,744 --> 00:04:41,Moray, why do you always
assume that everything

00:04:41,214 --> 00:04:44,I do has some kind
of ulterior motive?

00:04:48,655 --> 00:04:53,In the past, The Paradise has
been all about you. Now it is about us.

00:04:54,995 --> 00:04:56,You and me.

00:04:56,863 --> 00:05:01,If it is success here that you want,
then I shall give it to you, my love.

00:05:03,069 --> 00:05:08,You, girl. What is your name?
Pauline, ma'**. Follow me. Yes, ma'**.

00:05:17,517 --> 00:05:24,Uncle? I've had an idea. Another
one? I'm still adjusting to the first.

00:05:24,257 --> 00:05:26,We have to keep moving
forward, keep evolving.

00:05:26,860 --> 00:05:28,We can't afford to stand still.

00:05:29,663 --> 00:05:32,Uncle, look at this street.

00:05:34,534 --> 00:05:40,Not as pretty as it used to be. Milliner,
dressmaker, shoemaker, canemaker.

00:05:42,209 --> 00:05:43,They've all felt the heat.

00:05:43,910 --> 00:05:45,Bear the scars.

00:05:45,178 --> 00:05:48,If we can co-operate, we can offer
our customers something unique.

00:05:48,915 --> 00:05:54,Hat, dress, shoes,
umbrella - a complete outfit.

00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:56,Co-operate? You
mean work together?

00:05:56,623 --> 00:06:00,Why not? Denise,
we're small businessmen.

00:06:00,627 --> 00:06:05,Independence, self-reliance
are at the core of our being.

00:06:05,131 --> 00:06:06,Too much change, too fast.

00:06:06,633 --> 00:06:08,Mr Chisholm approached
me this morning.

00:06:08,869 --> 00:06:12,There's another reason. What
man would voluntarily work with him?

00:06:13,006 --> 00:06:16,It's already done. You've
invited them to a meeting. What?

00:06:16,610 --> 00:06:19,A meeting. They're joining us this
afternoon. I've written it all down.

00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,Your speech.

00:06:21,314 --> 00:06:23,I've told them
this is your idea.

00:06:23,850 --> 00:06:26,Uncle, you said it yourself,
change is hard for them

00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:29,and it would be harder
still coming from a woman.

00:06:29,289 --> 00:06:31,You've trusted me this far,
and I've not let you down.

00:06:32,359 --> 00:06:33,Please?

00:06:34,828 --> 00:06:36,What do you think of this?

00:06:43,169 --> 00:06:45,It's very nice, Miss
Glendenning. Very.

00:06:46,006 --> 00:06:49,They say a perfume only comes
to life when worn on this skin.

00:06:49,876 --> 00:06:52,The warmth of the human
body gives it its heartbeat.

00:06:55,482 --> 00:06:56,It reminds me of something...

00:06:57,751 --> 00:06:59,warm. Apple pie.

00:07:01,621 --> 00:07:05,Yes, maybe. Or a baby's
head when they've bathed.

00:07:06,059 --> 00:07:08,Otherwise, with the
nursing, they reek.

00:07:08,595 --> 00:07:12,I'm one of 11. You never forget
the smell. Wet wool and cheesy milk.

00:07:15,101 --> 00:07:16,Oh, sorry.

00:07:16,903 --> 00:07:19,I'm sensitive. That's one of
the reasons I'm stuck on buttons.

00:07:19,873 --> 00:07:24,How long have you worked here?
Ages. And you like working for Mr Moray?

00:07:24,210 --> 00:07:26,Oh, yes. Very much.

00:07:26,146 --> 00:07:29,For a successful man, he's a
kind man and he loves this place.

00:07:30,050 --> 00:07:32,The only thing he
loves more is his wife.

00:07:34,220 --> 00:07:37,I mean his ex-wife... Dead wife.

00:07:37,657 --> 00:07:40,That's the other reason
I'm stuck on buttons.

00:07:40,527 --> 00:07:43,Sometimes it's hard to
think as fast as I speak.

00:07:46,132 --> 00:07:51,You'll make a very good Mrs Moray.
An even better Mrs Moray, no doubt.

00:07:52,005 --> 00:07:55,If only I had a ounce of
your charm and elegance.

00:07:55,842 --> 00:07:57,No wonder he fell for you.

00:07:57,744 --> 00:08:00,But you have a wealth of
elegance and charm, my dear.

00:08:01,514 --> 00:08:06,And with your ability to flatter, I'm
sure you could turn any boy's head.

00:08:13,660 --> 00:08:15,We have much in common.

00:08:16,229 --> 00:08:19,We are all purveyors of
quality, master craftsmen.

00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,We all trade on the same street.

00:08:22,969 --> 00:08:25,Together, we would have
dressed the customer from top to toe

00:08:25,872 --> 00:08:29,before they'd even
set foot in The Paradise...
