00:00With the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo, the 20-year war with France was finally over.

00:16A new spirit of optimism was afoot.

00:19People returned from far-flung places in search of what was rightfully theirs.

00:24I hereby leave all of my worldly possessions, property, lands and titles, jointly to my sisters, grandchildren, my great-nieces,

00:36on the sole condition that they both marry within one lunar month of my departing this earth.

00:42A list of eligible gentlemen has been prepared by Master Wilberforce and myself.

00:47Gentlemen, in 12 days you'll inherit without any further concerns.

00:50It's obvious they're not going to secure husbands in that time.

00:54No, Robert, we must be certain and stick to the plan.

00:57And so the sisters Grimm, watchful of their present danger, kept an eye on the main chance.

01:04A husband.

01:07Having been so long out of England, they required some education in the ways of polite society.

01:13At this rate, I don't think we'll marry them off in a year, let alone a month.

01:24This quite vexed us all, for there was a full scheme of things still to be unraveled about the Miss Grimm's.

01:33They were quite unlike any other women we had encountered.

01:36And so the sisters Grimm decided on a course of action, to uncover the mysteries of the Abode of Love.

02:03It is Master Wilberforce who wishes to marry you, Miss Fancy.

02:08I have a confession to beg.

02:11And Leopold wishes to marry me.

02:14Yes.

02:16And so the sisters Grimm became the mistresses of Grimm Manor, and all it surveyed.

02:24Not bad.

02:27For a pair of impostors.

02:28And so the sisters she wished to marry you, Miss Fancy, and for an Easter man.
