00:00:00Good morning. I'm here to see the Reverend.
00:00:26And you are?
00:00:27I'm Frank. I've come about the handyman job.
00:00:31Oh, right. Come in.
00:00:34Of course.
00:00:46Ah, Reverend.
00:00:48Yes.
00:00:50I'm Frank, Frank Peerless. I've come about the handyman job.
00:00:54Ah yes, please, come through.
00:00:58This sure is a wonderful place you have here, Reverend. Wonderful.
00:01:07Oh, please, call me Lionel.
00:01:10Lionel it is.
00:01:12So, what is your previous work experience?
00:01:15Well, I've done a lot of manual labour. My last job was as a handyman in London.
00:01:21I worked for a family there.
00:01:23And why did you leave?
00:01:26The family there, they fell on hard times financially.
00:01:29And they couldn't afford to pay me, so, well, I just had to move on.
00:01:35Yes, a lot of people are suffering these days. It's tough out there.
00:01:42That's right, it sure is tough.
00:01:45But I, just like everybody else, we need to keep earning, right?
00:01:48And with me, it's not just for the roof over my head.
00:01:50You see, I'm working towards a bigger career goal here.
00:01:55Really? What is it?
00:01:57I want to be in films.
00:02:00Oh, as an actor?
00:02:03That's right. I plan to make enough money and get myself off to Hollywood, in fact.
00:02:12Well, I always admire people with big ambition.
00:02:17Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to take the job on and leave you high and dry a few months down the road, you understand.
00:02:25I'm looking to make a lot of money, so I'm willing to commit myself for a couple of years, at least.
00:02:32Well, that's good to know.
00:02:36Well, the main duties will be maintaining the garden, general work on the house.
00:02:43In a nutshell, anything needed to keep the house and grounds in shape.
00:02:49Well, I can do all that.
00:02:55Listen, I'd normally interview other applicants.
00:03:03But I trust my instincts.
00:03:07I think you'd work hard and be a good asset to the place.
00:03:17Why, thank you, Lionel.
00:03:20I really do appreciate this opportunity.
00:03:24So I'll see you first thing tomorrow morning?
00:03:27First thing it is.
00:03:30Marianne will see you out.
00:03:32Thank you. And have yourself a good day now.
00:03:35And you too.
00:03:53Good night.
00:04:23Good night.
00:04:53I've got to get my skates on. I'm running late.
00:05:19Frank will be round later to start work on the garden.
00:05:23Right.
00:05:25Sorry to bother you. I couldn't get a drink, could I? It's thirsty work out there.
00:05:52God, where are my manners? I should have offered you some water.
00:05:58How's about something a little stronger, maybe? It's tough going out there, you know.
00:06:05Oh, OK. Please, come in. Have a break.
00:06:23Cheers.
00:06:25Cheers.
00:06:34My husband says you've been working as a handyman in London.
00:06:37That's right. Good old London town, eh?
00:06:41Yes, I've worked all over Europe, actually.
00:06:45Really?
00:06:47Spent quite a lot of time in France a few years back now.
00:06:50France?
00:06:51Yeah, I opened a shoe store there in a town called Arlo.
00:06:55I can remember the locals used to call me Francois de Arlo.
00:07:04Do you speak any French?
00:07:09Vous avez des beaux yeux.
00:07:13What does that mean?
00:07:16You have very beautiful eyes.
00:07:21Yeah.
00:07:26Right. Best get back to the work.
00:07:29Thank you so much for the drink and the seat and your eyes.
00:07:35Just knock the door if you need anything.
00:07:40I will. I'll do just that.
00:07:42Do.
00:08:52Hey!
00:08:54God in heaven! I thought you were a burglar.
00:08:57Sorry, lad. I didn't mean to scare you.
00:09:01What are you doing here?
00:09:04Are you homeless?
00:09:06No, I wouldn't quite put it that way.
00:09:10How would you put it?
00:09:12Look, I'm sorry. I'm not homeless.
00:09:16I wouldn't quite put it that way.
00:09:18How would you put it?
00:09:20Look, I'm sorry. I can just go now and I'll come back in the morning, OK?
00:09:27Listen, you don't need to go.
00:09:29If you need a place to stay, we have a guest room.
00:09:33A guest room?
00:09:36That's awfully kind of you, Lionel, but I couldn't put such an imposition on you.
00:09:40It's no imposition.
00:09:43What about your wife?
00:09:45That would be agreeable.
00:09:47Now, come on. Let's get you upstairs and settled in.
00:09:53All right?
00:09:55Only if you insist.
00:09:58Right.
00:10:06You couldn't find any lodgings in town?
00:10:09No. No, they're all full, all booked.
00:10:15Look, that's not entirely the truth, Lionel.
00:10:19The truth is, I don't have a penny to my name.
00:10:23I thought I could build up some money working here and then find a place to stay.
00:10:29How embarrassing.
00:10:31Well, you're welcome to stay here until you get back on your feet.
00:10:37Are you sure?
00:10:39Of course. It's at times like these I'm reminded of a passage in the Bible.
00:10:44What good is it if someone says they have faith, but do not have works?
00:10:50You see, faith by itself, without works, is dead.
00:10:57Wow. You really are a good man, Lionel.
00:11:02Well, anything you need, just let me know.
00:11:06You have a restful evening.
00:11:08I'm sure I will. Thank you.
00:11:12You're very welcome.
00:11:18I'm sure I am.
00:11:33Whoa!
00:11:38What the hell is the handyman doing in our bath?
00:11:42He's homeless.
00:11:46What?
00:11:48I found him sleeping in the shed last night. He doesn't have anywhere else to go.
00:11:53So he's staying here?
00:11:57In the guest bedroom. Is that all right with you?
00:12:03How long is he going to be here?
00:12:06Just a couple of weeks. He needs to earn enough money to find a place of his own. He's broke.
00:12:13Oh, so that's our problem, is it?
00:12:17I don't see helping others as being a problem.
00:12:24Are you saying I do?
00:12:26Of course not.
00:12:29I am not the heartless bitch you think I am.
00:12:34I don't think that. Don't be silly.
00:12:37You implied that I see helping others as a problem. Well, I don't.
00:12:41I'm sorry. I didn't mean to imply that.
00:12:45In future, if you're going to invite strangers to live here, I would like to know about it before I find them naked in the bathroom.
00:13:04I'm sorry.
00:13:35Look, Mariana, I'm sorry I startled you earlier on that.
00:13:42Don't worry about it.
00:13:45Well, the last thing I want to do is be an inconvenience to you.
00:13:50From now on, I'll try to stay out of your hair, OK?
00:13:56You know...
00:14:01It was kind of funny.
00:14:04Yes, I suppose it was.
00:14:07Your face was a picture, Mariana.
00:14:11I didn't exactly expect to see a naked stranger in the bathtub.
00:14:15Well, I promise, from now on, I won't do it again.
00:14:20I didn't exactly expect to see a naked stranger in the bathtub.
00:14:24Well, I promise, from now on, I'll keep my clothes on, OK?
00:14:35It wasn't the worst thing I've ever seen.
00:14:38Should I be taking that as a compliment, then?
00:14:43Um...
00:14:45You, uh, do you want a drink or something?
00:14:49No, no, plenty of work to do today. Lots and lots of work today.
00:14:55I just wanted to apologise, that's all.
00:14:58Don't worry about it.
00:15:01OK. Thank you.
00:15:13MUSIC PLAYS
00:15:28This is delicious.
00:15:33The garden's coming along nicely.
00:15:36Mm. It's getting there.
00:15:39Do you know, I don't know if either of you have had any thoughts on flowers,
00:15:43but I really do believe the garden would benefit with a bit of colour.
00:15:48Mm. That sounds good.
00:15:51Mariana?
00:15:54I've always loved bronze chrysanthemums.
00:15:57Mm. Now, they are a good choice.
00:15:59There's a wide variety of them, see.
00:16:01There's spoon-shaped, quill-shaped, thread-like and spider-like florets.
00:16:05You do know the meaning behind the bronze chrysanthemum, don't you?
00:16:09No.
00:16:11It represents excitement.
00:16:14Oh.
00:16:16Do you go to church, Frank?
00:16:20No. No, I don't.
00:16:23It's not that I don't believe or anything.
00:16:26I simply struggle to find the time, you know.
00:16:30God always finds time for us.
00:16:33Sometimes we need to find time for him, too.
00:16:38Lionel, he just wants to have dinner, not get converted.
00:16:45Whatever you say, dear.
00:16:49Ah.
00:17:01Lionel?
00:17:03No, thank you.
00:17:13Good morning, Lionel.
00:17:16Huh? Oh, morning.
00:17:18Did you sleep all right in the guest bedroom?
00:17:21Yes. Wonderful, thank you.
00:17:23Good.
00:17:26Well, I've got to get going.
00:17:40Morning.
00:17:42Good morning.
00:17:44Would you like some breakfast?
00:17:46No, I don't want to trouble you.
00:17:49It's no trouble.
00:18:10Mmm.
00:18:12You really are a good cook, Marianne.
00:18:16Thanks.
00:18:24What's funny?
00:18:27Oh, I...
00:18:29Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude.
00:18:31I just paid you a compliment there, that's all,
00:18:34and you kind of treated it like an insult.
00:18:38Sorry.
00:18:41I just...
00:18:45Sometimes it seems like that's all I do around here.
00:18:51I cook the meals.
00:18:54That's it.
00:18:58Yes.
00:19:00Boredom really is a killer sometimes, isn't it?
00:19:11You're missing the point.
00:19:15No, no.
00:19:17No, I get the point.
00:19:20Oh, you do, do you?
00:19:23Mm-hm.
00:19:25Hmm.
00:19:29What exactly is the point?
00:19:35That question, Marianne.
00:19:38What is the point?
00:19:45It's hard for you to see the point right now, isn't it?
00:19:49I mean, you clean the house,
00:19:52you cook the food, and you do the dishes.
00:19:56And then, well, then you clean the house,
00:19:59you cook the food, and then you do the dishes.
00:20:02Every day is the same.
00:20:05But you do your best, Marianne.
00:20:08Play in the role of the good housewife.
00:20:10But that's just it, isn't it?
00:20:13It's just a role.
00:20:16Like an actor pretending to be something else.
00:20:19Maybe, just maybe,
00:20:22you're pretending to be half of what you really are.
00:20:27The question is, Marianne,
00:20:30how long can you go on feeling this unhappy?
00:20:34Lying in there every night,
00:20:36staring up at the ceiling,
00:20:38just waiting for something to happen,
00:20:41knowing all the while
00:20:44that you were meant for something better.
00:20:49Feeling it.
00:20:52Wanting it.
00:20:56Needing it.
00:20:59You know nothing about me.
00:21:30Good night.
00:21:52My heart is sad and I'm all alone
00:21:58My man treats me mean
00:22:03I regret the day that I was born
00:22:09And that man I ever seen
00:22:14My happiness is less today
00:22:20My heart is broke, that's why I say
00:22:26Not a good man is hard to find
00:22:32You always get another time
00:22:38Yeah, so when you think that he's your man
00:22:45You look his body through the glass
00:22:49I won't care if you say
00:22:53You are brave
00:22:56You want to be
00:22:59Now is the time
00:23:02That you say
00:23:05You are brave
00:23:23You are brave
00:23:53You are brave
00:24:23You are brave
00:25:23You are brave
00:25:54Help me, help me, help me!
00:26:00Marianne, oh my goodness.
00:26:02Are you okay?
00:26:04What happened?
00:26:08I can smell it, there's someone in here.
00:26:11A man.
00:26:12What man?
00:26:16I don't know.
00:26:17Come on.
00:26:18I don't know.
00:26:19You're okay now.
00:26:21Come on, let's get you up here.
00:26:24Come on.
00:26:25Oh my goodness, you're freezing.
00:26:28It's okay, shh.
00:26:30It's okay, there's no man.
00:26:33Okay, shh.
00:26:44Are you feeling better now?
00:26:48Yeah.
00:26:56I don't know what happened.
00:27:02The wireless...
00:27:07Someone had lit the fire when I was...
00:27:13And then I saw this man.
00:27:15What man?
00:27:19In robes, he...
00:27:24He looked like a monk.
00:27:28A monk?
00:27:32Yeah.
00:27:37I followed him upstairs.
00:27:40I followed him upstairs, but then he just...
00:27:45He just disappeared.
00:27:48At least you're okay now, eh?
00:27:53I'm far from okay.
00:27:57Now what do you mean by that, Marianne?
00:28:03What you said.
00:28:07Earlier.
00:28:11Yes, look, about that, I really did overstep the mark there, I...
00:28:15No.
00:28:17No, you were right.
00:28:26I'm not happy.
00:28:40I'm not happy.
00:29:10I'm not happy.
00:29:40I'm not happy.
00:30:11Any luck searching for a new place, Frank?
00:30:15I've made quite a few enquiries in town, Lionel, but...
00:30:20Nothing as yet.
00:30:24Well, you're welcome to stay here as long as you need to be.
00:30:28Thanks.
00:30:31The garden's coming along nicely now.
00:30:34Isn't it, sweetheart?
00:30:36Yes.
00:30:38Frank's doing a wonderful job here.
00:31:38I love you.
00:31:40I love you.
00:32:08I love you.
00:32:39Frank.
00:32:42Could you come upstairs for a moment?
00:32:44I'd like to speak to you.
00:32:57What's this?
00:32:59What the...
00:33:01Crikey, Moses, is that you?
00:33:05What the crikey, Moses, is this doing in here?
00:33:09I was about to ask you the same thing.
00:33:13But I don't know.
00:33:16Did you put this here?
00:33:21Come on, Lionel, now.
00:33:23This is no laughing matter.
00:33:26Why would I put a scarecrow in my bed?
00:33:29You tell me.
00:33:32All right, Lionel, just listen, OK?
00:33:35I don't know what it's doing here, and I certainly didn't put it there, OK?
00:33:39I can... I can just...
00:33:42Just burn it in the garden. Now.
00:33:44Burn it? What for?
00:33:46Just do it.
00:33:48Do it now.
00:34:01I think your Lionel's a bit stressed out.
00:34:06Do we have to talk about him right now?
00:34:10Yes, sorry.
00:34:12No, it's just that, well, he was...
00:34:15He was really quite adamant about me burning this silly scarecrow in the garden.
00:34:22Do you know, I think he was really scared of it.
00:34:27He's just enjoying the power over you.
00:34:31The power over me? What do you mean?
00:34:35I think he likes telling people what to do.
00:34:38That's why he's a reverend.
00:34:40He can tell people what's what and claim it's the word of God.
00:34:44What, he tells you what to do, does he?
00:34:47No.
00:34:49No-one's my boss.
00:34:57Good afternoon.
00:34:59Hello.
00:35:01I'm Reverend Foyster. I thought I'd introduce myself.
00:35:04I've not seen you at the church before.
00:35:07I haven't been for a while.
00:35:09Oh, well, perhaps I can convince you to pay a visit sometime.
00:35:12I often come to the graveyard.
00:35:14Visiting a loved one?
00:35:16Yes. My one true love.
00:35:19I'm sorry you lost him.
00:35:27You have a good heart.
00:35:29But you're surrounded by evil.
00:35:31Excuse me?
00:35:33Your house. The rectory.
00:35:35You need to lay those tormented spirits to rest.
00:35:56Good evening.
00:36:14Good evening.
00:36:16I regret the day that I was born.
00:36:20And the man of mine I never knew.
00:36:24Oh, no.
00:36:26Oh, dang, you might have to never look back.
00:36:32You could blow my holy trumpet any day now.
00:36:45Hi, Lionel.
00:36:47Lionel.
00:36:49Please, take a seat.
00:36:51Take the weight off your feet.
00:36:53You really do look sprunk.
00:37:30I've got dinner cooking.
00:37:33That's nice.
00:37:47Lionel.
00:38:17Lionel.
00:38:48No!
00:39:00What the hell was that?
00:39:03Frank, stay here. Stay...
00:39:08Oh, my God.
00:39:10Where is he?
00:39:14Frank!
00:39:18Oh, my God. How did this happen?
00:39:23I don't understand.
00:39:42I don't understand what happened.
00:39:48I thought it was a dream.
00:39:51And there was nobody else in the room with you?
00:39:54No. No-one.
00:39:57It felt like a...
00:39:59It felt like I was being pinned down, but there was no-one there.
00:40:04It felt like I was being whipped, but...
00:40:08I couldn't see anyone.
00:40:10This house is haunted.
00:40:13Have you seen something?
00:40:16I've seen a few things. Things that frighten me.
00:40:20Why didn't you say anything?
00:40:22I wondered if it was my imagination.
00:40:24I tried to find rational explanations, but...
00:40:27Now I...
00:40:29I must admit the truth.
00:40:32Evil is living here with us.
00:40:34With all due respect, Lionel, ghosts aren't real, for Christ's sakes.
00:40:38Well, your injuries are very real, though, aren't they?
00:40:41How do you explain that?
00:40:45I don't know.
00:40:48I've seen something, too.
00:40:50What?
00:40:53I...
00:40:55I saw a man in a hooded robe.
00:40:59He looked like a monk.
00:41:03I followed him.
00:41:06I...
00:41:07I followed him into Frank's room.
00:41:10The monk...
00:41:11burst out of the cupboard, but then I screamed and he was...
00:41:14He was gone.
00:41:15Look, I don't...
00:41:16I really don't know about all this monk business, Mary.
00:41:19I'm...
00:41:20Like I said, maybe it was all in your mind.
00:41:23You knew about this, too?
00:41:26Frank heard me screaming.
00:41:28He came in to make sure I was okay.
00:41:30I thought there was an intruder in the house, Lionel.
00:41:32She was screaming.
00:41:36Well, why didn't you tell me?
00:41:38I don't know.
00:41:40Like you, I was trying to find a rational explanation for it.
00:41:48I suppose some things are better left unsaid.
00:41:58Well, if this place is haunted, what can we do about it?
00:42:05In the name of the Father...
00:42:08and of the Son...
00:42:10and of the Holy Spirit...
00:42:13Peace be with this house...
00:42:16and all who live in it.
00:42:29When Christ took flesh through the Blessed Virgin Mary...
00:42:32he made his home with us.
00:42:37The Lord said to the 72...
00:42:40into whatever house you enter...
00:42:42first say...
00:42:44Peace to this household.
00:42:47If a peaceful person lives there...
00:42:50your peace will rest on them.
00:42:54But if not...
00:42:56it will return to you.
00:42:59Stay in the same household...
00:43:01eat and drink what is set before you.
00:43:05For the labourer deserves his payment.
00:43:09If you're the sick who live there...
00:43:12then say to them...
00:43:14The kingdom of God is there for you.
00:43:26What's wrong?
00:43:32What's all this, sir?
00:43:36It just appeared.
00:43:40Just...
00:43:43Blind man.
00:43:46This looks like blood.
00:43:56My God.
00:43:58My God.
00:44:02What happened?
00:44:04Your Lionel here seems to think...
00:44:08this all just appeared.
00:44:14I walked round the bed...
00:44:17and when I turned back...
00:44:19it was there.
00:44:28There's blood all at the back inside.
00:44:40Hey...
00:44:42This is loose.
00:44:58Jesus!
00:45:01Oh my God.
00:45:07Lionel?
00:45:14What the hell is going on in here?
00:45:27How's Marianne?
00:45:29Where is she?
00:45:31She's just had a bit of a shock.
00:45:34She's having a lie down.
00:45:41As long as she's okay, eh?
00:45:44She'll feel better after resting.
00:45:49I'm sure she will.
00:45:52I'm sure she will.
00:45:58Look, I...
00:46:00I was going to ask...
00:46:02Are you going to speak to the police about all this?
00:46:06Of course.
00:46:11I was...
00:46:13I was kind of hoping you wouldn't see.
00:46:17Why?
00:46:20I've done something that I'm not particularly pleased with.
00:46:24I've done something that I'm not particularly proud of, Lionel.
00:46:30What have you done, Frank?
00:46:34It's about that family I was working for in London.
00:46:38What about them?
00:46:41Oh, I...
00:46:43I just borrowed some money from them, that's all.
00:46:46Borrowed?
00:46:48Well, they wouldn't pay me for the work, see, so I...
00:46:51So I had to make some threats, and well...
00:46:54I suppose I took some money that they weren't prepared to give.
00:46:59You stole money from them?
00:47:01Stole? I don't think that's the right word to use here, Lionel.
00:47:05They might see it that way, but I was merely taking what I was owed for the work, see?
00:47:12And they reported you to the police?
00:47:14Yes.
00:47:16And are the police looking for you?
00:47:19I suppose so.
00:47:29And do you still have the money?
00:47:31No.
00:47:33I spent the money travelling. I really wasn't lying when I said I had no money.
00:47:43You realise I have to speak to the police, don't you?
00:47:49Come on, Lionel, I...
00:47:51Do you really think...
00:47:52Let me finish.
00:47:54I have to speak to the police about what we found.
00:47:58But I can delay it.
00:48:01I'll give you a week to find somewhere else to live.
00:48:05A week? Well, that's a bit harsh, isn't it?
00:48:09Look...
00:48:12How's about this?
00:48:13How's about I just do a bunker for a couple of days and then I could come back when the police have gone?
00:48:19How's about that, eh?
00:48:25The thing is, Frank, I'm a reverend. I have a moral responsibility.
00:48:31It wouldn't be very moral of me to harbour a wanted criminal.
00:48:37So, I think it's time for you to move on.
00:48:41Just be thankful I'm not asking you to leave right away.
00:48:45At least I'm giving you some time.
00:48:49Oh, I...
00:48:51I am thankful, Lionel. I am.
00:48:55It's just a pity, you see.
00:48:57I was really starting to enjoy my time here.
00:49:05Well...
00:49:07All good things must come to an end.
00:49:11I love you.
00:49:42I love you.
00:49:45Go inside and have a drink. It's been a difficult day for all of us.
00:49:50Try to get some rest.
00:49:52Some rest?
00:49:55Of course.
00:50:11I love you.
00:50:42Sigh...
00:50:48Sigh...
00:50:50Sigh...
00:51:11Sigh...
00:51:42Lionel knows about us.
00:51:46Did he say that?
00:51:50Not in so many words.
00:51:53What did he say, then?
00:51:55He found the torn red dress that I hid in the shed.
00:52:00That doesn't mean nothing.
00:52:03I just know he knows.
00:52:04Yes.
00:52:06There have been some awkward moments with him.
00:52:09Exactly.
00:52:12He knows.
00:52:15So what do you want to do?
00:52:22I don't know.
00:52:25Do you want to stay with him?
00:52:29I don't know.
00:52:31Do you want to stay with him?
00:52:38I'm unhappy with Lionel.
00:52:42Lionel is weak.
00:52:45You need a strong man, Marianne.
00:52:51I don't know if he'll go quietly.
00:52:56What are you talking about?
00:52:57What are you talking about?
00:52:59Why?
00:53:00He's weaker than any man I've ever seen.
00:53:06You don't know him like I do.
00:53:09When he's passionate about something, he'll fight for it.
00:53:16Well...
00:53:19Maybe there is one way we can be sure he'll let you go.
00:53:27What?
00:53:31I could take care of him.
00:53:37Take care of him?
00:53:41You know...
00:53:44Get him closer to God.
00:53:58Are you serious?
00:53:59Why not?
00:54:01Well, you...
00:54:03You said you didn't love him, didn't you?
00:54:06Hmm?
00:54:07And he has treated you terribly, Marianne.
00:54:10Hell, I could...
00:54:12I could make that look like an accident.
00:54:18It's one thing not to love someone.
00:54:21It's another thing to bloody kill.
00:54:24Oh, come on.
00:54:25It's another thing to bloody kill.
00:54:27Okay, Marianne, calm down.
00:54:29How can I be calm when you're suggesting something so terrible?
00:54:32Marianne, Marianne, I just want to be with you.
00:54:35And I'll do whatever it takes to make that happen.
00:54:39I swear to God I will.
00:54:56Hey.
00:54:58Wait.
00:55:00I've been waiting for you.
00:55:02I know.
00:55:03You were right.
00:55:04There is evil in my house.
00:55:06It's an ancient evil.
00:55:08Slain dormant for many years, but now...
00:55:11Something has unlocked it.
00:55:12Do you know what happened in that house?
00:55:15Yes.
00:55:16Please, tell me.
00:55:19Many years ago, there was a French nun.
00:55:22She left her religious ordering to travel to England.
00:55:25She married the first son of the Waldergraves,
00:55:27a powerful family who owned the rectory at the time.
00:55:31The nun's name was Marie Laire.
00:55:34After she got married, Marie fell deeply unhappy.
00:55:38There used to be a Benedictine monastery in the area at the time,
00:55:42and she went there to pray for guidance.
00:55:45During one of her visits, she met a monk.
00:55:48His name was Anthony.
00:55:49Eventually, the two fell in love.
00:55:52They began an affair.
00:55:54The nun's husband found out.
00:55:57One night, he lured them both back into the house
00:56:01and killed them in one of the bedrooms.
00:56:03Was he ever brought to justice?
00:56:05No.
00:56:07Neither the nun nor the monk had any family.
00:56:10They weren't going to be missed.
00:56:12Their bodies were concealed in one of the bedrooms
00:56:15and never spoken of again.
00:56:16Of course, there were questions that were asked,
00:56:19but no one dared challenge the powerful Waldergrave family.
00:56:23Now the spirits of Marie and Anthony haunt the rectory,
00:56:27lost in limbo between this world and the next.
00:56:31How can I help them to move on?
00:56:33The only way is to gather the bones,
00:56:36bring them here and bury them in hallowed ground.
00:56:39That way, they can finally find their way to God.
00:56:42And how do you know all this?
00:57:12I don't know.
00:57:43You okay, Lionel?
00:57:52Choco.
00:57:59Do you know how I met Marianne?
00:58:02No.
00:58:12No.
00:58:15She was at a church fete 15 years ago.
00:58:21I was in a parish in Devon at that time.
00:58:27She was confident, vivacious.
00:58:33Very social.
00:58:37I was a quiet homebody, the complete opposite of her.
00:58:44But when we met, it felt very natural.
00:58:51That day, we talked and talked.
00:58:56About everything and anything, about her past, my past.
00:59:05We shared a few laughs.
00:59:12We connected.
00:59:15It was special.
00:59:17I remember walking home one evening,
00:59:23thinking,
00:59:27this is the woman for me.
00:59:30That I would move heaven and earth to have her in my life.
00:59:37We continued to see each other.
00:59:41Perhaps we grew too close too quickly.
00:59:46Doubts crept in.
00:59:49For her, that is, not me.
00:59:53Marianne wasn't ready for a relationship.
01:00:00Months went by before I saw her again.
01:00:03Then one Sunday, she came to church.
01:00:10Absence really does make the heart grow fonder.
01:00:17The moment I saw her again,
01:00:21I knew I was completely in love with her.
01:00:27I knew I was in love with her.
01:00:29I knew I was completely in love with her.
01:00:36She said her doubts were gone.
01:00:41She was sure I was the one for her.
01:00:47And a few months later, she made me the happiest man alive by agreeing to be my wife.
01:00:53I found my best friend.
01:00:58My soulmate.
01:01:08But now,
01:01:14I wonder whether those doubts ever came back.
01:01:22Whether I ever truly left her.
01:01:27I wonder whether I've been living in denial of her feelings.
01:01:45But one thing is constant.
01:01:49My feelings haven't changed.
01:01:53I will still move heaven and earth to have her in my life.
01:02:10Well,
01:02:15I really don't know what to say about all that, Lionel.
01:02:23You'll move.
01:02:30There's nothing more to say.
01:02:42I want you gone by the end of the week.
01:02:53I want you gone by the end of the week.
01:03:16And what time do you call this?
01:03:19What are you laughing at?
01:03:22You, Marianne.
01:03:24All high and mighty.
01:03:31Excuse me?
01:03:35You do not tell me what to do ever again.
01:03:48I'm sorry.
01:03:54You've given me my last chance.
01:03:57You've been married your fucking job.
01:04:00You mean what you're left me to do?
01:04:04I've been trapped, Lionel.
01:04:06I am stuck at home.
01:04:08All day.
01:04:09You didn't fall for that.
01:04:11No.
01:04:12You were wrong.
01:04:15You were wrong.
01:04:16When your spouse comes home, or something,
01:04:20kicks out the house,
01:04:23goes to town and meets people,
01:04:25makes some friends.
01:04:28Is that too much effort?
01:04:30You've never had to work for anything in your entire life.
01:04:35You only wanted a husband so you can have everything handed to you.
01:04:39Fucking bastard!
01:04:42Say how much you know about me if you think that.
01:04:45Why did you marry me then?
01:04:47It wasn't for love.
01:04:49Oh, you think you've got all the answers, don't you?
01:04:52You arrogant little sod!
01:04:54You don't know anything about me.
01:04:58You never loved me.
01:05:01No.
01:05:02Okay.
01:05:03I suppose I didn't.
01:05:04I never loved you.
01:05:05I just married you for the security.
01:05:08Is that what you wanted to hear?
01:05:11Finally.
01:05:13The truth.
01:05:14Finally.
01:05:15Oh, fuck off, Lionel!
01:05:17Yeah, you'd like that, wouldn't you?
01:05:20Then you could be all alone with him.
01:05:31You've gone insane.
01:05:33Oh, I'm the crazy one now, am I?
01:05:37I am not an idiot, Aria.
01:05:40No.
01:05:42No, you're not an idiot.
01:05:44You're just a cruel, cruel man.
01:05:48How am I cruel?
01:05:50Lionel, you are never, ever affectionate.
01:05:54I mean, you deprive me of sex.
01:05:56Have you any idea what that's done to my self-esteem?
01:05:59So that's your excuse for sleeping with the hell?
01:06:06Lost for words?
01:06:11No.
01:06:17He's more man than you'll ever be.
01:06:26You think he's a man?
01:06:31A real man doesn't use another man's wife.
01:06:36He didn't use me.
01:06:42I wanted it.
01:06:45You disgust me.
01:06:55That's why you never wanted to have sex with me.
01:06:57Oh, shut up!
01:07:00You know what? Frank isn't disgusted by me.
01:07:03That's why I sucked his cock.
01:07:05Shut your foul mouth!
01:07:07I sucked his cock, and I let him fuck me!
01:07:10I'm warning you, Marianne.
01:07:13I let him fuck me in the arse as well!
01:07:34You OK, Marianne?
01:07:44I want you to get him.
01:07:48What was that?
01:07:50I don't know.
01:07:52I don't know.
01:07:54I don't know.
01:07:56I don't know.
01:07:58I don't know.
01:08:00I don't know.
01:08:02What was that?
01:08:09I want you to kill him.
01:08:17Consider it done.
01:08:32I want you to kill him.
01:09:02What the fuck?
01:09:33Lord, let me commend Marie and Anthony to your mercy.
01:09:38Lord God, our Father in heaven,
01:09:40the Son and Saviour of the earth,
01:09:44the Holy Spirit,
01:09:46have mercy on them.
01:09:49Amen.
01:10:02That's it.
01:10:07That's it.
01:10:23That's it.
01:10:32That's it.
01:11:02That's it.
01:11:32Fuck.
01:12:02Fuck.
01:12:13Evening, Lionel.
01:12:16What do you want?
01:12:21It's just that cupboard in my room.
01:12:23It's not your room.
01:12:25It's my guest room.
01:12:27What have you say, Lionel?
01:12:29What about the cupboard?
01:12:32It's just that I think I found some other stuff in there.
01:12:36What other stuff?
01:12:40Come with me and I can show you.
01:13:03So are you going to tell me what you have in there?
01:13:07Go in and see for yourself, Lionel.
01:13:18Just open the door.
01:13:21Why are these sheets on the floor?
01:13:23The sheets...
01:13:25The paint was coming off the ceiling.
01:13:27It was ghastly.
01:13:29I was going to do a bit of decoration.
01:13:31You really do need to look inside the cupboard there,
01:13:34just on the left.
01:14:01Frank?
01:14:12Frank?
01:14:14Frank?
01:14:30Frank?
01:14:44Frank?
01:15:06Frank?
01:15:08Frank?
01:15:15Hello, Maria.
01:15:26Where's Frank?
01:15:30Frank?
01:15:34Yes.
01:15:36Frank?
01:15:39Where is he?
01:15:42Oh, Frank.
01:15:45The lying, cheating criminal.
01:15:50He's in the dining room.
01:16:06Oh!
01:16:36Oh!
01:17:06Oh!
