:41:00
Though in the end...
:41:02
there were just
the three of us left.
:41:04
why?
:41:05
My employers moved to London.
:41:07
They came here
less and less...
:41:11
it being
so out of the way like.
:41:13
So gradually the house
just became empty.
:41:18
Everybody ends up leaving
this damned island.
:41:22
My family left
in the summer of 1 940....
:41:25
just before the invasion.
:41:29
That was the last
I've heard of them.
:41:33
ohh.
:41:35
I don 't blame them.
:41:38
Actually, we left, too.
:41:41
Although, you know...
:41:43
sometimes when
you leave a place...
:41:45
it's like it's there
with you all the time.
:41:50
I always felt like I
never left this house.
:41:53
why did you leave ?
:41:55
oh, 'twas on account
of the tuberculosis.
:41:58
The whole area was evacuated.
:42:01
ohh.
:42:03
was that when Lydia went dumb ?
:42:05
Yes, I think so...
:42:08
though my memory's
a bit rusty these days, ma 'am.
:42:12
what happened to her?
:42:19
It was suddenly one day.
:42:22
She just... stopped talking.
:42:26
There must've been a reason.
:42:28
People don 't just stop talking.
:42:31
These things
are always the result...
:42:32
of some sor of trauma.
:42:35
Something
must've happened to her.
:42:41
Did your employers
treat you well?
:42:43
oh, they were always
very kind to us.
:42:45
They treated us
just like family.
:42:50
You know, ma 'am,
I think I will go to bed.
:42:53
I'll never be able
to get up in the morning.
:42:56
: off you go.
:42:58
I'm going to stay here
a while longer.
:42:59
Yes, ma 'am.
