I hope you're not too exhausted, Miss Chastie.

After your journey?

No, I feel quite well, thank you.

Room quite comfortable?

Yes, very comfortable.

Good.

Good afternoon, Miss Chastie.

And welcome to Wardley Park.

How do you do?

Have you met my father?

How do you do?

Do sit down.

I suppose Mother's been telling you

what a dunce I am.

You're not a dunce at all.

Just lazy.

Ah, I haven't introduced you to Lady.

I won't ask her to stand up.

She's a bit of a poor old thing.

He's French, for instance.

Very ramshackle.

His mathematics are pretty rotten, too.

You'll have to keep an eye out for them

after that, Miss Chastie.

That should be quite a handful, I

should think.

Father always says things like that

about me.

Hilary, I think it's time you showed

Miss Chastie the schoolroom.

Certainly, Mother.

Don't be silly.

It didn't hurt.

Don't mollycoddle him, Miss Chastie.

Knock the corners off a bit.

Yes.

Well, perhaps we ought to see the schoolroom.

Was that a bit of an ordeal for you?

No.

Good.

Then I'll take you for the grand tour.

Thank you.

We own a lot of the land, particularly

in that direction.

Look, over there, where the sheep are.

We were French when we first lived here.

How long ago is that?

About 600 years.

Well, what do you think?

Come on, it'll seem all right.

Very much your choice.

Little Miss Mouse.

She's far too young.

But she's the best of an awful bunch.

We'll just have to see.

Quiet.

Do you live in a big house?

Well, not quite as big as this.

Never mind.

The school room's nice and snug.

The East Wing was added in the 16th century.

this way.

thank you.

I'll have to die with my parents sometimes.

you won't mind that will you?

I think I'll manage.

I used to when I was younger.

I got some stamps and minerals

somewhere too.

I don't know where they are really.

show me all at once, do you?

Come on, we must go back and do your maths.

I'm really quite a bonce, no matter

what power this was.

Babies, they're so tedious, aren't they?
