1:00:00
What'll you do now? Sit by the fire...
1:00:02
...and make goslings in the ash?
1:00:05
Not at all, Alice.
1:00:07
I expect I'll write a bit...
1:00:11
...I'll write...
1:00:13
...I'll read, I'll think.
1:00:17
I think I'll learn to fish.
1:00:20
I'll play with my grandchildren
when son Roper's done his duty.
1:00:26
-Alice, shall I teach you to read?
-No, by God!
1:00:32
Poor, silly man,
you think they'll leave you here to think?
1:00:35
If we govern our tongues, they will!
1:00:41
I have a word to say on that. I've made
no statement. I've resigned, that's all.
1:00:47
The King is made, by act of parliament,
Supreme Head of the Church in England.
1:00:50
This English Church will divorce him from
the Queen, then marry him to Lady Anne.
1:00:55
But on any of these matters,
have you heard me make a statement?
1:00:58
No.
1:01:00
If I'm to lose my rank and fall to
housekeeping, I want to know the reason.
1:01:03
-So make a statement now.
-No.
1:01:06
Alice, it's a point of law.
Accept it from me...
1:01:08
...that in silence is my safety,
under the law.
1:01:11
And my silence must be absolute,
it must extend to you.
1:01:15
In short, you don't trust me.
1:01:21
I'm the Lord Chief Justice,
I'm Cromwell, I'm the keeper of the Tower.
1:01:25
I take your hand...
1:01:26
...I clamp it on the Bible,
on the blessed Cross and I say:
1:01:30
"Woman, has your husband
made a statement on these matters?
1:01:34
"On peril of your soul remember,
what is your answer?"
1:01:39
No.
1:01:41
And so it must remain.
1:01:53
Have you opened your mind to Meg?
1:01:55
Would I tell Meg what I won't tell you?
1:01:59
Meg has your heart.
I know that well enough.
