A screenplay for a historical drama starring Emma Thompson as as Lizzie Ernshaw, a wealthy, high-class widow living with her sickly elderly father; and Benedict Cumberbatch as David Linkinwater, the charming and mysterious man secretly courting her. Contains comments from the editor, who is screening the work to decide if it is to be picked up.

~~~

Lizzie Ernshaw (Emma Thompson) has just lost her husband and, being a woman, may no longer remain on her husband's estate. She must return to live with her father, Booker Creakey (Michael Caine), who in his old age is in very poor health. Only six months have passed since her husband's death, but a romance has sparked between Lizzie and David Linkinwater (Benedict Cumberbatch) despite its impropriety. Will the two be allowed to court, or will outside forces keep these star-crossed lovers from one another forever?
