then I would stay
with them and do
my research at Oxford.

So if we could see
the night sky in

would disappear

The signals that muscles

889
01:05:23,128 --> 01:05:25,130
And no God. Oh.
890
01:05:26,214 --> 01:05:29,301
Oh, I see. I... (CHUCKLES)
I thought that, um,
891
01:05:29,384 --> 01:05:33,388
you'd proved the universe
had a beginning
and thus a need for a creator.
892
01:05:34,514 --> 01:05:36,016
(CHUCKLES) My mistake.
893
01:05:36,433 --> 01:05:39,144
No, mine.
894
01:05:42,397 --> 01:05:43,899
Stephen is looking
for a single theory
895
01:05:43,982 --> 01:05:46,526
that explains
all the forces
in the universe.
896
01:05:47,527 --> 01:05:49,571
Therefore, God must die.
897
01:05:49,780 --> 01:05:52,157
Oh, uh, why must God die?
I don't see.
898
01:05:53,158 --> 01:05:55,786
The two great pillars
of physics
899
01:05:56,244 --> 01:05:58,455
are quantum theory,
900
01:05:58,747 --> 01:06:02,876
the laws that govern
the very small particles,
electrons and so on,
901
01:06:03,460 --> 01:06:05,879
and general relativity.
902
01:06:06,213 --> 01:06:07,673
Ah, yes, Einstein.
903
01:06:08,173 --> 01:06:09,257
Einstein's theory,
the laws that govern
904
01:06:09,341 --> 01:06:11,134
the very large planets
and such.
905
01:06:11,218 --> 01:06:14,304
But quantum and relativity...
906
01:06:14,388 --> 01:06:16,390
Don't tell me.
They're different?
907
01:06:16,932 --> 01:06:19,559
They don't remotely
play by the same rules.
908
01:06:20,394 --> 01:06:24,106
If the world
were all potatoes,
then, easy.
909
01:06:24,189 --> 01:06:26,900
You could trace
a precise beginning
910
01:06:26,984 --> 01:06:28,735
as Stephen once did.
911
01:06:29,236 --> 01:06:31,071
A moment of creation.
912
01:06:31,947 --> 01:06:34,533
Hallelujah. God lives.
913
01:06:35,283 --> 01:06:36,743
If you incorporate peas
into the menu,
914
01:06:36,868 --> 01:06:38,412
well, then it all
goes a little...
915
01:06:38,787 --> 01:06:40,956
Tits up.
Oh. (CHUCKLING)
916
01:06:41,039 --> 01:06:43,125
Yes. Haywire.
917
01:06:43,208 --> 01:06:45,419
It just all becomes
a godless mess.
Oh, dear.
918
01:06:46,211 --> 01:06:48,088
(CHUCKLING)
Einstein hated peas.
919
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:53,510
Quantum theory. He said,
"God doesn't play dice
with the universe."
920
01:06:54,136 --> 01:06:57,431
STEPHEN: Seems
he not only plays dice,
921
01:06:58,265 --> 01:07:02,936
but he throws them
where we can't find them.
922
01:07:03,437 --> 01:07:06,648
God is back on
the endangered species list.
(JONATHAN CHUCKLING)
923
01:07:07,232 --> 01:07:10,027
Well, I expect he'll cope.
924
01:07:10,110 --> 01:07:13,822
And physics
is back in business.
925
01:07:13,905 --> 01:07:15,073
JANE: Yes.
926
01:07:16,783 --> 01:07:18,994
Physics is back in business.
927
01:07:30,255 --> 01:07:32,549
I was, uh, married,
actually.
928
01:07:33,842 --> 01:07:36,553
Um... But, sadly,
she passed.
929
01:07:38,889 --> 01:07:40,515
Almost a year ago now.
930
01:07:40,599 --> 01:07:41,933
(EXHALING)
931
01:07:43,143 --> 01:07:44,811
It was, uh, leukemia.
932
01:07:47,314 --> 01:07:50,067
Um, she fought it
and I nursed her.
933
01:07:51,485 --> 01:07:53,445
But, uh, in the end...
934
01:07:53,528 --> 01:07:55,155
Um...
(SIGHING)
935
01:07:58,784 --> 01:08:00,744
I do get quite lonely.
936
01:08:00,827 --> 01:08:04,081
The, uh, (INHALING DEEPLY)
tyranny of the empty room
937
01:08:05,165 --> 01:08:06,500
and all that.
938
01:08:07,959 --> 01:08:11,546
But music is my salvation.
Teaching and playing.
939
01:08:11,630 --> 01:08:14,633
Not really as a career,
but I'm not very ambitious.
940
01:08:14,716 --> 01:08:16,426
Though that's not...
941
01:08:17,302 --> 01:08:19,054
(SIGHING)
942
01:08:22,516 --> 01:08:24,810
Is that a sin?
I don't know.
943
01:08:26,728 --> 01:08:29,231
Wrong man to ask.
944
01:08:35,195 --> 01:08:36,988
Thank you so much
for having me.
945
01:08:37,072 --> 01:08:39,825
Thank you for coming.
it was really,
really wonderful.
946
01:08:40,700 --> 01:08:43,286
If there's anything
I can do to be of service,
947
01:08:43,370 --> 01:08:44,412
um, to you,
948
01:08:44,496 --> 01:08:46,832
to the family,
I mean, I would
949
01:08:46,915 --> 01:08:48,625
consider it a privilege.
950
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,295
I have no children
or commitments, so...
951
01:08:53,296 --> 01:08:56,550
I only mean that
if I could be of help,
952
01:08:57,092 --> 01:08:59,052
I believe I might
find a purpose that would
953
01:08:59,136 --> 01:09:01,805
help alleviate my own,
um, situation. (CHUCKLES)
954
01:09:04,057 --> 01:09:05,058
Good night.
955
01:09:06,143 --> 01:09:07,310
Night.
956
01:09:43,305 --> 01:09:45,640
I understand
957
01:09:48,101 --> 01:09:50,353
if you need help.
958
01:09:53,899 --> 01:09:59,112
If someone is prepared
to offer it,
959
01:10:03,241 --> 01:10:05,535
I won't object.
960
01:10:45,075 --> 01:10:46,284
(LAUGHING)
961
01:10:48,787 --> 01:10:49,955
Chilly? (CHUCKLING)
962
01:10:50,038 --> 01:10:51,706
(CHUCKLING)
Yeah, it's very bracing.
963
01:11:23,863 --> 01:11:25,365
(CHUCKLES)
Come on. Ready?
964
01:11:25,448 --> 01:11:27,075
Yeah.
(GRUNTING) All right.
965
01:11:29,661 --> 01:11:31,997
17,18...
966
01:11:39,838 --> 01:11:42,465
There we go. Right.
I'm going to put
the kettle on.
967
01:11:58,648 --> 01:12:00,317
(PIANO PLAYING)
968
01:12:31,097 --> 01:12:34,059
(SINGING) Calls you one
and calls you all
969
01:12:34,142 --> 01:12:37,937
To gain his everlasting hall
970
01:12:38,021 --> 01:12:41,358
Christ was born to save
971
01:12:41,441 --> 01:12:44,194
Christ was born to save
972
01:12:44,277 --> 01:12:46,321
JONATHAN:
Great, lovely, okay.
We can go.
973
01:12:47,655 --> 01:12:49,240
Just gone 7:45.
974
01:12:49,657 --> 01:12:52,994
(CHUCKLES) Um, could you
all leave your copies?
Goodbye.
975
01:12:59,584 --> 01:13:01,002
There's something
I need to tell you.
976
01:13:02,337 --> 01:13:03,463
What?
977
01:13:04,339 --> 01:13:05,715
I'm pregnant.
978
01:13:06,966 --> 01:13:08,593
(CHUCKLES)
979
01:13:08,676 --> 01:13:11,429
Gosh, I, um, assumed
that you and Stephen, um...
980
01:13:13,139 --> 01:13:15,308
Well, that's
really wonderful.
981
01:13:16,184 --> 01:13:18,478
It is.
Yes, wonderful.
982
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:21,481
(CHUCKLES)
Congratulations, Jane.
983
01:13:22,565 --> 01:13:23,775
Thank you.
984
01:13:39,290 --> 01:13:40,583
Everyone say, "Cheese."
Ready?
985
01:13:40,667 --> 01:13:42,752
On the count of three.
One, two, three.
986
01:13:42,836 --> 01:13:44,504
ALL: Cheese!
987
01:13:46,256 --> 01:13:47,340
Cheese.
988
01:13:51,636 --> 01:13:53,847
JANE: (GASPING)
Is that your brother?
On his bike?
989
01:13:57,809 --> 01:13:59,686
LUCY: Mummy!
Just coming.
990
01:13:59,769 --> 01:14:02,522
Oh, come on, sweetie.
Come on...
991
01:14:09,404 --> 01:14:11,364
Now, you know
(CLEARING THROAT)
992
01:14:11,448 --> 01:14:15,785
I've always been supportive
of your choice not
to have home help,
993
01:14:15,869 --> 01:14:18,913
but we need to find
a permanent solution.
994
01:14:19,497 --> 01:14:21,791
This, uh, situation
cannotconflnue.
995
01:14:21,875 --> 01:14:26,921
You need to have a proper
live-in nurse immediately.
996
01:14:27,464 --> 01:14:29,090
We have help.
997
01:14:29,883 --> 01:14:33,219
Look, you know
what I'm talking about.
998
01:14:33,470 --> 01:14:36,723
We can't afford
a live-in nurse.
999
01:14:37,140 --> 01:14:38,558
Stephen, you need
to find a way
1000
01:14:39,225 --> 01:14:40,727
for your family's sake.
1001
01:14:41,144 --> 01:14:42,729
You're world-famous.
1002
01:14:43,188 --> 01:14:46,900
For black holes,
not for rock concerts.
1003
01:14:47,734 --> 01:14:49,736
Stephen, this isn't funny.
1004
01:14:50,570 --> 01:14:52,363
I believe it's urgent.
1005
01:15:10,882 --> 01:15:12,383
(WATER RUSHING)
1006
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:15,970
We do have
a right to know.
1007
01:15:16,054 --> 01:15:18,139
We have a right
to know, Jane.
1008
01:15:21,392 --> 01:15:22,727
Know what?
1009
01:15:24,103 --> 01:15:26,231
ISOBEL: Whose child
Timothy is.
1010
01:15:26,314 --> 01:15:28,691
Stephen's or Jonathan's.
1011
01:15:31,444 --> 01:15:33,404
That's what
you think of me.
1012
01:15:35,281 --> 01:15:38,826
There's no way that Timothy
could have any other father
than Stephen.
1013
01:15:38,910 --> 01:15:40,036
None.
1014
01:15:44,123 --> 01:15:45,458
(DOOR CLOSING)
1015
01:15:50,922 --> 01:15:52,215
Jonathan.
1016
01:15:52,298 --> 01:15:54,050
Please don't go.
I have to go.
1017
01:15:54,133 --> 01:15:55,760
Come on.
Everyone is talking...
1018
01:15:55,843 --> 01:15:57,387
So, what does it matter?
1019
01:15:57,470 --> 01:15:59,222
It's difficult for me
because I'm just
trying to help.
1020
01:15:59,305 --> 01:16:01,766
I know you're trying to help,
and your help is valued.
1021
01:16:01,849 --> 01:16:04,602
The best thing for me
right now is...
I think maybe if (STAMMERING)
1022
01:16:04,686 --> 01:16:06,437
I just
step back for now.
1023
01:16:06,521 --> 01:16:08,481
Please, Jonathan.
We need you.
1024
01:16:08,565 --> 01:16:11,025
The children need you,
and I need you,
and Stephen needs you.
1025
01:16:11,109 --> 01:16:13,152
Jonathan.
There's other things as well.
1026
01:16:13,570 --> 01:16:14,904
Jane,L“
1027

(SIGHING)
1028
01:16:17,490 --> 01:16:18,992
I have feelings for you.
1029
01:16:23,580 --> 01:16:26,165
And I have feelings
for you, too.
1030
01:16:31,379 --> 01:16:32,714
Thank you, Jane.
1031
01:17:21,679 --> 01:17:25,933
I've been invited
to the Bordeaux Opera.
1032
01:17:26,809 --> 01:17:28,061
Invited where?
1033
01:17:29,062 --> 01:17:30,355
Bordeaux.
1034
01:17:32,357 --> 01:17:33,816
To Bordeaux?
Mmm.
1035
01:17:34,984 --> 01:17:36,653
Wagner.
1036
01:17:37,028 --> 01:17:39,364
The students
can take me.
1037
01:17:39,989 --> 01:17:42,533
I know you hate flying.
1038
01:17:42,867 --> 01:17:43,993
(CHUCKUNG)
1039
01:17:44,077 --> 01:17:45,787
I do hate to fly.
1040
01:17:46,454 --> 01:17:48,581
Bring the car.
1041
01:17:49,123 --> 01:17:52,085
Meet me in Bordeaux.
1042
01:17:54,462 --> 01:17:57,465
Take the children camping.
1043
01:18:00,343 --> 01:18:02,637
It'll be too difficult
to manage, Stephen.
1044
01:18:09,227 --> 01:18:12,271
Bring Jonathan.
1045
01:18:17,777 --> 01:18:20,071
I doubt he would
be willing.
1046
01:18:23,825 --> 01:18:25,326
(DOOR OPENING)
1047
01:18:37,422 --> 01:18:38,881
Hello, Stephen.
1048
01:18:55,314 --> 01:18:56,774
Is this okay?
1049
01:18:57,150 --> 01:18:58,484
Well...
1050
01:18:59,485 --> 01:19:00,862
I won't tell if you won't.
1051
01:19:14,500 --> 01:19:16,210
Just bearing in mind
you have to drive.
1052
01:19:16,294 --> 01:19:17,670
(LAUGHING)
1053
01:19:32,685 --> 01:19:35,146
Jane needs help.
1054
01:19:49,702 --> 01:19:51,746
Sarah, you won't forget
a vitamin B injection...
Yes?
1055
01:19:51,829 --> 01:19:53,080
...as soon as you land.
No. Of course.
1056
01:19:53,164 --> 01:19:54,624
And you'll call me
when you get to the hotel?
I will.
1057
01:19:54,707 --> 01:19:56,250
Yes? Promise? Good.
Yes.
1058
01:19:57,877 --> 01:19:59,253
Stephen.
1059
01:20:01,672 --> 01:20:03,257
Mum will take the baby.
1060
01:20:04,050 --> 01:20:07,011
(KISSING)
She'll be here any minute.
See you in Bordeaux.
1061
01:20:08,262 --> 01:20:09,472
And be good.
1062
01:20:33,871 --> 01:20:35,248
Are they asleep?
1063
01:20:35,331 --> 01:20:36,541
