:31:06
Tell me about your parentage, Miss Gwynn.
:31:08
My mum was a whore,
my father in the navy.

:31:10
- I see.
- That's why I don't never do sailors.

:31:14
I'm sorry I missed your performance tonight,
Miss Gwynn.

:31:17
- Will you do it again?
- No.

:31:18
And all that for a one-off.
:31:20
Work, work, work, and it's over in a pop.
:31:23
- Like Charlie.
- What, my dear?

:31:25
Miss Gwynn, I remind you,
you are speaking of the Father of his People.

:31:31
Well... a lot of 'em.
:31:34
Mrs Hughes, have you seen
Mr Kynaston perform?

:31:37
He's doing Desdemona in Othello now.
:31:40
- You've seen it, George?
- Yes. I never tire of Othello.

:31:43
Truth be told, sir,
he never tires of Desdemona.

:31:48
Kynaston, isn't there someone else
who does Desdemona?

:31:53
- Can't think of his name now.
James Noakes.

:31:56
Yes, good actor Noakes
:31:59
Not quite his part, though.
Doesn't have your beauty.

:32:01
No, Kynaston,
Desdemona is yours alone. Ha, ha!

:32:05
Well, but if I may, sir...
:32:08
A part doesn't belong to an actor,
an actor belongs to a part.

:32:13
Don't you agree, sir?
:32:21
Don't know.
:32:23
Do you agree, Mr Kynaston?
:32:25
Oh, well, there have been
other Desdemonas before me, sir.

:32:29
There will be more after. In fact, the Duke of
Buckingham saw another one just last night.

:32:33
Did you, Your Grace?
:32:35
George, what performance
does Mr Kynaston refer to?

:32:38
You showed me the fly bill.
:32:40
I think I have it. Yes, here it is.
:32:47
The Cockpit Tavern.
:32:49
Yes, that was name of the theatre, wasn't it?
:32:51
Well, it wasn't strictly a theatre.
:32:54
"The woman...
:32:56
plays today
:32:58
Mrs Margaret..."
