:17:02
How could they be happy
if there was a giant?
:17:05
There wasn't. Not yet.
He was away visiting a friend.
:17:08
You're always away.
:17:11
I only go away
for a night or two
:17:14
and I always come back.
:17:15
Whereas the giant
whose garden it was,
:17:17
had been staying for seven years
with an ogre in Cornwall.
:17:20
After seven years,
when he'd said all he had to say
:17:23
because his conversation
was very limited,
:17:25
he decided to return home
to his own castle.
:17:28
When he arrived and found the
children playing in his garden,
:17:32
he was very angry.
:17:33
"What are you doing here?"
he cried.
:17:36
And all the children ran away.
:17:38
"My own garden is my own
garden!" said the giant.
:17:42
"And I won't allow anyone
to play in it except myself. "
:17:46
So he built a high wall
all around.
:17:48
And put up a large noticeboard
:17:50
on which was written,
in capital letters,
:17:52
"Trespassers
will be prosecuted. "
:17:56
Arthur, you're trespassing.
:17:58
Cyril will now eat you.
:17:59
It's Mr Ross, sir,
with Mr Gray.
:18:01
Heavens. I must fly.
:18:03
The horses of Apollo are pawing
impatiently at the gates.
:18:06
I beg your pardon?
:18:08
Papa must go.
:18:13
You will come back
and finish the story?
:18:15
Of course I will.
:18:17
Come on, Cyril.
It's almost tea-time.
:18:20
I really don't know
why people bother
:18:22
painting portraits any more.
:18:24
You can get a much better
likeness with a photograph.
:18:27
But a photograph's
just one moment in time.
:18:30
One gesture,
one turn of the head.
:18:32
Yes. Portraits
are not likenesses, Mr Gray.
:18:35
Painters show the soul
of the subject.
:18:38
The essence.
:18:39
The essence
:18:41
of the sitter's vanity,
you mean.
:18:43
Well, this is a portrait
:18:45
of Lady Battersby
:18:46
as a young woman.
:18:47
She's over there
:18:49
as a matter of fact.
:18:51
I must go and console her.
:18:59
How nice to see you.
