:05:00
Hence my adverisement
in the newspaper...
:05:02
requesting honest,
hard-working people.
:05:05
There 's nobody more honest
or hard-working than us.
:05:08
Isn 't that right, Mr Tuttle ?
:05:09
oh, aye, we 're very honest.
:05:11
And, um, very hard-working.
:05:17
The kitchen.
:05:19
I have breakfast at 8. 00...
:05:21
the children at 9. 00.
:05:23
Lunch will be served at 1. 00
and dinner at 7 30.
:05:26
MRS MILLS :
And the master, ma 'am ?
:05:31
The master went off to war...
:05:33
a year and a half ago.
:05:35
I've had no news
since the war ended.
:05:39
which of you does the cooking?
:05:41
MRS MILLS :
I'm so sorry, ma 'am.
:05:43
which of you does the cooking?
:05:45
You 'll notice what I'm doing.
:05:47
In this house,
no door must be opened...
:05:50
without the previous one
being closed first.
:05:52
It is vital
that you remember this.
:05:55
It's not as easy
as it may seem.
:05:57
There are 1 5 different keys
for all of the 50 doors...
:06:00
depending on which area of
the house you 're in at the time.
:06:03
Mrs Mills,
from tomorrow onwards...
:06:06
I will be leaving
a set of keys in your charge.
:06:08
Yes, ma 'am.
:06:10
The music room.
:06:11
That old piano was already here
when we moved in.
:06:14
Please do not let
the children thump away on it.
:06:18
It sets off my migraine.
:06:19
Silence is something that we
prize very highly in this house.
:06:24
That is why you will not find
a telephone, a radio...
:06:27
or anything else
that makes a racket.
:06:29
oh, we don 't have
electricity, either.
:06:31
During the war, the germans
kept cutting it off...
:06:33
so we learned to live
without it. Let's continue.
:06:36
Ma 'am, there 's no need
to show us the whole house.
:06:38
GRACE: Yes!.
:06:39
Yes, there is.
:06:42
Most of the time,
you can hardly see your way.
:06:45
It's often difficult
to make out...
:06:47
if there is a table, a chair,
a door, a sideboard...
:06:50
or one of my children
playing hide and seek.
:06:54
what do you mean, ma 'am ?
:06:57
Perhaps I should introduce you
to the children.
