- 00:24:58,833 --> 00:25:00,665
- Henry Smith, where are you from, sir?
- 174
- 00:25:01,167 --> 00:25:02,374
- London.
- 175
- 00:25:02,625 --> 00:25:04,742
- I'd like to speak to you all
- before the briefing tomorrow.
- 176
- 00:25:05,375 --> 00:25:06,741
- That's if she's fit to fly.
- 177
- 00:25:07,917 --> 00:25:09,453
- I'm sure she will be.
- 178
- 00:25:16,792 --> 00:25:19,751
- Hello, I'm James Parker, friends call me Jim.
- 179
- 00:25:20,500 --> 00:25:21,490
- Nice to meet you, Parker.
- 180
- 00:25:31,375 --> 00:25:33,492
- And what's your name, sergeant?
- 181
- 00:25:35,250 --> 00:25:36,491
- Charlie Moore.
- 182
- 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,495
- I um... I heard you were a Spitfire pilot
- during the blitz.
- 183
- 00:25:49,708 --> 00:25:50,619
- I was.
- 184
- 00:25:50,708 --> 00:25:52,950
- Jesus! What was that like?
- 185
- 00:25:53,792 --> 00:25:55,408
- Much like this.
- 186
- 00:25:57,208 --> 00:26:01,623
- DOUGLAS: It was good to meet you all.
- Good evening.
- 187
- 00:26:05,167 --> 00:26:06,533
- Christ.
- 188
- 00:26:07,833 --> 00:26:09,324
- He's a bloody odd ball.
- 189
- 00:26:10,125 --> 00:26:12,833
- Feel sorry for you, George,
- sharing digs with him.
- 190
- 00:26:13,250 --> 00:26:15,116
- Seems like a right barrel of laughs.
- 191
- 00:26:21,667 --> 00:26:22,748
- GEORGE: Evening.
- 192
- 00:26:28,792 --> 00:26:30,624
- You should've joined us.
- 193
- 00:26:31,667 --> 00:26:33,659
- I'm quite alright.
- 194
- 00:26:36,292 --> 00:26:39,490
- I bet you don't even drink do you?
- 195
- 00:26:41,333 --> 00:26:42,323
- Not often.
- 196
- 00:26:43,167 --> 00:26:47,707
- No, very self-disciplined, I'm sure.
- 197
- 00:26:54,500 --> 00:26:59,200
- Ah, made yourself at home, I see.
- 198
- 00:27:24,542 --> 00:27:26,534
- Flight Lieutenant Miller, I presume.
- 199
- 00:27:30,917 --> 00:27:32,499
- How is she?
- 200
- 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,491
- She's not good, I'm afraid.
- 201
- 00:27:36,292 --> 00:27:37,749
- She'll be fit for tonight?
- 202
- 00:27:40,417 --> 00:27:41,828
- We'll do our best, sir.
- 203
- 00:28:24,667 --> 00:28:25,657
- Morning, Skipper.
- 204
- 00:28:25,958 --> 00:28:26,948
- Good morning.
- 205
- 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,493
- She's quite a beauty, isn't she?
- 206
- 00:28:34,375 --> 00:28:35,866
- She is.
- 207
- 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,492
- I'd like to brief the crew before the off.
- 208
- 00:28:42,875 --> 00:28:43,865
- Could you arrange that for me?
- 209
- 00:28:45,583 --> 00:28:47,495
- You do know we're not flying tonight right?
- 210
- 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,491
- It's just been posted.
- 211
- 00:28:59,583 --> 00:29:01,495
- GEORGE: It's not the best day for it anyway.
- 212
- 00:29:01,833 --> 00:29:03,995
- You could use the time to get to know
- the men a little better.
- 213
- 00:29:04,083 --> 00:29:10,705
- Besides, I have been reliably informed
- that the war will still be here tomorrow.
- 214
- 00:29:14,833 --> 00:29:16,574
- Sir. Morning, George.
- 215
- 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,286
- Sergeant!
- 216
- 00:29:23,375 --> 00:29:24,661
- Sir?
- 217
- 00:29:26,208 --> 00:29:29,326
- At Fighter Command we salute
- our superior officers.
- 218
- 00:29:38,333 --> 00:29:39,494
- (MUMBLES) Prick!
- 219
- 00:29:42,917 --> 00:29:45,500
- You do know you're not at Fighter Command
- anymore, right?
- 220
- 00:29:48,583 --> 00:29:49,949
- ...Tea.
- 221
- 00:30:13,500 --> 00:30:18,666
- (LAUGHING) All right, Ace, what's that?
- 222
- 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,583
- Is it the, altitude?
- 223
- 00:30:22,667 --> 00:30:28,743
- Ah huh. Set a course for home.
- Where are your compasses?
- 224
- 00:30:29,167 --> 00:30:31,500
- There. And there.
- 225
- 00:30:31,958 --> 00:30:34,746
- Right, you've got someone on your tail.
- He gives you a short sharp burst;
- 226
- 00:30:34,833 --> 00:30:37,826
- he's got your engine.
- You've got a bit of smoke coming out of there.
- 227
- 00:30:38,417 --> 00:30:40,500
- Err, engine temperature.
- 228
- 00:30:40,583 --> 00:30:41,824
- Right.
- 229
- 00:30:43,417 --> 00:30:47,582
- Also, keep an eye on your fuel.
- 230
- 00:30:48,167 --> 00:30:51,490
- Okay. Half left.
- 231
- 00:30:53,208 --> 00:30:58,875
- So you need to bring this a little bit more over.
- Not too much or you'll flip yourself.
- 232
- 00:31:03,833 --> 00:31:06,621
- GEORGE: He's a good lad really, they all are.
- 233
- 00:31:09,375 --> 00:31:11,708
- You just need to get to know them.
- 234
- 00:31:17,083 --> 00:31:20,781
- I used to be like you.
- Bit of a lone wolf, kept to myself.
- 235
- 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:26,119
- Thing is, when you're around these chaps
- doing what we do,
- 236
- 00:31:27,875 --> 00:31:30,367
- you can't help but grow attached to the buggers.
- 237
- 00:31:31,667 --> 00:31:34,580
- Oh, I really hate when that happens.
- 238
- 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,663
- Introduced to our WAAF's already, I see.
- 239
- 00:31:56,208 --> 00:31:58,666
- Trouble they are, aren't you, girls?
- 240
- 00:32:00,500 --> 00:32:01,581
- Who's your friend, George?
- 241
- 00:32:01,708 --> 00:32:05,327
- Ah, now this is Flight Lieutenant Miller,
- who... Urm.
- 242
- 00:32:07,042 --> 00:32:08,829
- You are single aren't you?
- 243
- 00:32:09,500 --> 00:32:12,083
- Take that as a yes.
- Who is officially free for the taking.
- 244
- 00:32:12,167 --> 00:32:13,999
- (WHISPERED) George, George.
- 245
- 00:32:15,750 --> 00:32:17,742
- I've only got eyes for you, Georgie.
- 246
- 00:32:21,792 --> 00:32:23,454
- That's Jo.
- 247
- 00:32:25,375 --> 00:32:27,162
- Cheeky that one.
- 248
- 00:32:39,167 --> 00:32:40,624
- Charlie.
- 249
- 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,491
- That Miller's a piece of work.
- 250
- 00:32:45,917 --> 00:32:46,828
- What have you done this time?
- 251
- 00:32:46,917 --> 00:32:48,499
- He pulled me up for not saluting.
- 252
- 00:32:49,667 --> 00:32:52,580
- Yeah I know you're supposed to salute
- a superior officer,
- 253
- 00:32:52,667 --> 00:32:54,329
- but Alf never pulled us up on it, did he?
- 254
- 00:32:54,417 --> 00:32:56,079
- And George certainly doesn't.
- 255
- 00:32:57,458 --> 00:32:58,824
- TOM: He's not Alf, Charlie.
- 256
- 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:00,662
- I know but...
- 257
- 00:33:02,875 --> 00:33:04,366
- What?
- 258
- 00:33:06,292 --> 00:33:07,828
- Is it my go?
- 259
- 00:33:11,500 --> 00:33:12,911
- I just think it's a bit much.
- 260
- 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,536
- Well it's not like he does it to you.
- 261
- 00:33:16,208 --> 00:33:21,499
- I don't see the problem, Charlie.
- If he said that to me I'd think fair enough.
- 262
- 00:33:25,667 --> 00:33:29,707
- CHARLIE: Yeah but, it's not what he said,
- it's the way that he did it.
- 263
- 00:33:30,167 --> 00:33:31,499
- ROBERT: Charlie!
- 264
- 00:33:32,083 --> 00:33:33,073
- Yeah?
- 265
- 00:33:34,917 --> 00:33:37,079
- Can a man not have a shit in peace?
- 266
- 00:33:38,917 --> 00:33:42,536
- CHARLIE: A... a... an... and
- I honestly think if he had it his way,
- 267
- 00:33:42,625 --> 00:33:44,287
- I'd be saluting my own mother
- the next time I went home.
- 268
- 00:33:44,417 --> 00:33:46,500
- God, is he still going on about it? Stop!
- 269
- 00:33:46,583 --> 00:33:48,165
- TOM: Like a broken record.
- 270
- 00:33:48,667 --> 00:33:51,626
- You don't get pulled up for your uniform,
- do you, George? That's all I'm saying.
- 271
- 00:33:51,708 --> 00:33:55,247
- Ah yes, that's because I don't let
- a superior officer within ten feet of me. Now listen.
- 272
- 00:33:55,583 --> 00:33:59,156
- I'm taking Flight Lieutenant Miller
- down to the Red Lion
- 273
- 00:33:59,250 --> 00:34:01,788
- for a drink and you are all invited to join us.
- 274
- 00:34:03,083 --> 00:34:04,619
- Count me in.
- 275
- 00:34:04,750 --> 00:34:06,286
- We'll be there, George.
- 276
- 00:34:08,042 --> 00:34:10,705
- And you, best behaviour.
- 277
- 00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:29,411
- Whose round is it now?
- 278
- 00:34:29,500 --> 00:34:30,581
- Yours, Charlie.
- 279
- 00:34:38,333 --> 00:34:39,790
- Well this looks like a barrel of laughs.
- 280
- 00:34:41,875 --> 00:34:45,448
- You two holding hands down there again?
- Err, what was that?
- 281
- 00:34:46,292 --> 00:34:46,998
- What was what?
- 282
- 00:34:47,083 --> 00:34:49,496
- Hand it over, right now.
- 283
- 00:34:50,417 --> 00:34:51,407
- TOM: Hand what over?
- 284
- 00:34:51,500 --> 00:34:52,741
- George!
- 285
- 00:35:10,583 --> 00:35:11,915
- Back in a minute.
- 286
- 00:35:29,583 --> 00:35:30,994
- Who is she?
- 287
- 00:35:34,750 --> 00:35:36,742
- Alfie's wife.
- 288
- 00:35:46,917 --> 00:35:48,499
- I'll go with him.
- 289
- 00:35:50,500 --> 00:35:52,492
- (QUIET CHATTER)
- 290
- 00:35:56,042 --> 00:35:57,499
- Three pints, please.
- 291
- 00:36:00,333 --> 00:36:04,498
- It's my fault you know.
- I should tell her.
- 292
- 00:36:04,917 --> 00:36:06,499
- What are you on about?
- 293
- 00:36:07,500 --> 00:36:08,490
- Alf.
- 294
- 00:36:09,750 --> 00:36:11,491
- Don't be so stupid.
- 295
- 00:36:15,292 --> 00:36:19,491
- It's no one's fault.
- He was unlucky, that's all Charlie.
- 296
- 00:36:22,250 --> 00:36:23,491
- All right?
- 297
- 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:30,957
- Now come on, give me a hand with these.
- 298
- 00:36:43,500 --> 00:36:44,490
- ROBERT: It was just for a second.
- 299
- 00:36:44,583 --> 00:36:48,577
- HENRY: Falling asleep even for a second
- isn't all right, training exercise or not.
- 300
- 00:36:48,667 --> 00:36:50,499
- No, it isn't.
- 301
- 00:36:51,708 --> 00:36:55,201
- JAMES: The odd thing is that you were
- dreaming about your Mum.
- 302
- 00:36:55,292 --> 00:36:57,500
- Now I would have been dreaming
- about the barmaid down feathers.
- 303
- 00:36:57,708 --> 00:36:59,495
- She's lovely.
- 304
- 00:36:59,708 --> 00:37:00,573
- Mammy!
- 305
- 00:37:00,708 --> 00:37:02,199
- No, he was louder than that.
- 306
- 00:37:03,292 --> 00:37:04,282
- Mammy!
- 307
- 00:37:05,917 --> 00:37:06,998
- Piss off.
- 308
- 00:37:07,083 --> 00:37:08,164
- He'll set her on you, George.
- 309
- 00:37:08,250 --> 00:37:11,573
- Oh, I don't mind.
- I'm sure she's a handsome woman.
- 310
- 00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:17,492
- (LAUGHTER)
- 311
- 00:37:18,500 --> 00:37:20,492
- (CHATTER)
- 312
- 00:37:28,042 --> 00:37:30,659
- KATE: He should have just come out.
- I mean it's... Oh, sorry.
- 313
- 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,367
- Oh, hello!
- You must be Flight Lieutenant Miller?
- 314
- 00:37:33,500 --> 00:37:34,365
- Yes.
- 315
- 00:37:34,500 --> 00:37:35,581
- I'm Kate.
- 316
- 00:37:36,958 --> 00:37:39,120
- Well, good evening, Kate.
- 317
- 00:37:39,333 --> 00:37:43,122
- They said you were a bit of a queer fish.
- Aren't you staying with your friends?
- 318
- 00:37:44,500 --> 00:37:46,492
- No, I've got to get back.
- 319
- 00:37:47,125 --> 00:37:50,823
- Got to or want to?
- Come on let's go and find George.
- 320
- 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:52,786
- No.
- 321
- 00:37:52,917 --> 00:37:56,410
- Oh, you really are a queer fish.
- 322
- 00:37:56,917 --> 00:37:57,907
- Fine.
- 323
- 00:38:18,167 --> 00:38:19,499
- Morning.
- 324
- 00:38:26,833 --> 00:38:28,290
- DOUGLAS: You were back late last night.
- 325
- 00:38:28,542 --> 00:38:31,501
- Couple of WAAFs turned up after you left.
- Good bunch.
- 326
- 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,491
- Morning, sir.
- 327
- 00:38:33,917 --> 00:38:35,658
- I hear you spoke to Kate last night.
- 328
- 00:38:36,333 --> 00:38:37,494
- We're not flying tonight.
- 329
- 00:38:38,167 --> 00:38:39,749
- What is your rush?
- 330
- 00:38:42,375 --> 00:38:44,662
- I don't like wasting my time.
- 331
- 00:38:45,750 --> 00:38:47,582
- I'm here to fight a war.
- 332
- 00:38:47,708 --> 00:38:50,872
- Not to go out every night
- and get drunk with the rest of them.
- 333
- 00:38:52,833 --> 00:38:54,790
- Oh, you just don't get it do you?
- 334
- 00:39:00,083 --> 00:39:03,247
- Half the men on this base
- won't survive your precious war.
- 335
- 00:39:03,667 --> 00:39:05,750
- And for some getting pissed every night
- is all they've got.
- 336
- 00:39:05,833 --> 00:39:08,905
- So why don't you climb down
- off your high horse.
- 337
- 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,492
- People might stop trying to push you off it.
- 338
- 00:39:21,583 --> 00:39:26,203
- Being stuck on this base isn't good for you.
- Come on.
- 339
- 00:39:42,083 --> 00:39:42,994
- Morning, Kate.
- 340
- 00:39:43,083 --> 00:39:44,073
- Morning, Peter.
- 341
- 00:39:44,500 --> 00:39:45,490
- Did you go out last night?
- 342
- 00:39:45,833 --> 00:39:48,496
- I did. Didn't see you.
- 343
- 00:39:48,708 --> 00:39:52,748
- Not much chance of that.
- Too busy with all this blasted paperwork.
- 344
- 00:39:53,333 --> 00:39:54,744
- How was it?
- 345
- 00:39:55,500 --> 00:39:56,490
- Good.
- 346
- 00:39:56,583 --> 00:39:58,495
- Good? Is that all?
- 347
- 00:39:58,917 --> 00:40:00,909
- She was talking to Flight Lieutenant Miller.
- 348
- 00:40:01,292 --> 00:40:02,078
- Jo!
- 349
- 00:40:02,208 --> 00:40:05,747
- PETER: Oh was she now?
- How did it go?
- 350
- 00:40:07,167 --> 00:40:10,581
- Nothing happened. He's a bit... Odd.
- 351
- 00:40:10,708 --> 00:40:11,698
- More than a bit.
- 352
- 00:40:12,500 --> 00:40:15,083
- They all are, my dear.
- Trust me; you're better off
- 353
- 00:40:15,167 --> 00:40:17,705
- with a simple sergeant like me.
- 354
- 00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:20,207
- I don't like simple.
- 355
- 00:40:22,625 --> 00:40:25,242
- You err... you couldn't fetch me a tea,
- could you, Jo?
- 356
- 00:40:25,333 --> 00:40:26,699
- Fetch it yourself!
- 357
- 00:40:32,583 --> 00:40:33,664
- And here she is.
- 358
- 00:40:40,083 --> 00:40:41,494
- Well?
- 359
- 00:40:43,208 --> 00:40:45,245
- Well I can see why you kept her
- a secret, George.
- 360
- 00:40:45,333 --> 00:40:49,327
- GEORGE: Excuse me.
- I will have you know that this car is a classic.
- 361
- 00:40:50,208 --> 00:40:51,494
- Well she's certainly a classic.
- 362
- 00:40:52,208 --> 00:40:55,656
- Wait a minute.
- Is that a smile I see?
- 363
- 00:40:59,292 --> 00:41:04,538
- And if you're very good,
- I might let you take her for a spin one day.
- 364
- 00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:09,832
- Well hop in, darling.
- 365
- 00:41:14,708 --> 00:41:16,324
- Come on Charlie, get back in this fight.
- 366
- 00:41:30,333 --> 00:41:31,699
- (BELL RINGS)
- 367
- 00:41:37,667 --> 00:41:40,739
- Come on. Come on, lad, come on.
- 368
- 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,582
- What's up?
- 369
- 00:41:45,042 --> 00:41:45,953
- I don't know.
- 370
- 00:41:46,125 --> 00:41:47,161
- You haven't lost a fight yet,
- 371
- 00:41:47,250 --> 00:41:49,492
- and this guy's got nothing on the brute
- you beat last week.
- 372
- 00:41:50,208 --> 00:41:53,201
- Plus I've got three pound resting on this.
- Come on.
- 373
- 00:41:54,958 --> 00:41:56,290
- Do it for Alf, Charlie.
- 374
- 00:42:01,792 --> 00:42:03,124
- HENRY: Come on, old boy.
- 375
- 00:42:12,500 --> 00:42:14,492
- (BELL RINGS)
- 376
- 00:42:19,500 --> 00:42:20,991
- One more like that. Come on.
- 377
- 00:42:48,500 --> 00:42:53,074
- (CHEERS)
- 378
- 00:42:53,625 --> 00:42:58,074
- That's it, Charlie! That's it!
- Hey, Jimmy get some water.
- 379
- 00:42:59,417 --> 00:43:03,707
- Come on, come on.
- That's it, Charlie.
- 380
- 00:43:08,583 --> 00:43:13,499
- You sure I can't tempt you out tonight?
- There'll be WAAFs a plenty.
- 381
- 00:43:14,708 --> 00:43:16,540
- No, I have work to do.
- 382
- 00:43:18,500 --> 00:43:19,832
- Your loss.
- 383
- 00:43:23,500 --> 00:43:26,413
- You ready George? The others are outside.
- 384
- 00:43:26,500 --> 00:43:27,911
- Sure am.
- 385
- 00:43:33,417 --> 00:43:34,783
- Don't wait up.
- 386
- 00:43:47,167 --> 00:43:49,500
- George, Kate.
- 387
- 00:44:03,667 --> 00:44:05,033
- You all right, Kate?
- 388
- 00:44:05,250 --> 00:44:06,582
- Sorry.
- 389
- 00:44:06,792 --> 00:44:07,748
- You all right?
- 390
- 00:44:07,833 --> 00:44:09,995
- Yes, sorry, mind was in another place.
- 391
- 00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:12,206
- Do you want another drink?
- 392
- 00:44:12,292 --> 00:44:14,909
- It's just I don't understand
- how somebody can be such an arse.
- 393
- 00:44:15,417 --> 00:44:16,407
- Who?
- 394
- 00:44:16,500 --> 00:44:17,832
- Lieutenant Miller.
- 395
- 00:44:17,917 --> 00:44:20,330
- Ah! Douglas.
- 396
- 00:44:20,625 --> 00:44:25,495
- Yes, I mean I only wanted him to enjoy himself.
- That wasn't wrong, was it?
- 397
- 00:44:25,917 --> 00:44:29,831
- He just finds this whole thing difficult, that's all.
- He'll come out of his shell.
- 398
- 00:44:30,417 --> 00:44:31,498
- Really?
- 399
- 00:44:31,583 --> 00:44:35,577
- In time, yes.
- Fancy another drink?
- 400
- 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,492
- Perhaps if I try speaking to him again?
- 401
- 00:44:38,583 --> 00:44:39,198
- Drink?
- 402
- 00:44:39,292 --> 00:44:43,332
- No... No, maybe I should just leave him be.
- 403
- 00:44:45,792 --> 00:44:49,786
- Oh, look. There's a pink elephant at the bar.
- 404
- 00:44:54,083 --> 00:44:55,665
- I might just go and introduce myself.
- 405
- 00:44:56,625 --> 00:44:58,287
- Okay, George.
- 406
- 00:45:21,667 --> 00:45:23,579
- How's the bottle going, Reg?
- 407
- 00:45:25,208 --> 00:45:26,619
- Barely broken the seal, George.
- 408
- 00:45:28,167 --> 00:45:29,203
- Steady girl.
- 409
- 00:45:29,292 --> 00:45:31,705
- Oh, shut up, George!
- I could drink you under the table.
- 410
- 00:45:31,833 --> 00:45:34,746
- Ah yes, but then we're not sat
- at a table are we?
- 411
- 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,491
- I will drink you under the bar then.
- 412
- 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:41,164
- REG: No room under here.
- It's full of George's black market whisky.
- 413
- 00:45:41,250 --> 00:45:44,448
- Is it now? We'll have to speed up.
- 414
- 00:45:58,500 --> 00:46:00,412
- And now you want me to guess right.
- 415
- 00:46:00,667 --> 00:46:02,078
- Do I?
- 416
- 00:46:02,458 --> 00:46:04,370
- Yes, you sly fox.
- 417
- 00:46:05,500 --> 00:46:10,950
- Because your right hand
- is slightly further forward than your left.
- 418
- 00:46:11,792 --> 00:46:13,579
- Maybe it's a bluff.
- 419
- 00:46:15,500 --> 00:46:17,207
- Or a double bluff.
- 420
- 00:46:21,750 --> 00:46:23,116
- That one...
- 421
- 00:46:23,417 --> 00:46:24,498
- Oh bugger.
- 422
- 00:46:25,875 --> 00:46:28,492
- I demand a stewards enquiry!
- 423
- 00:46:32,083 --> 00:46:33,369
- How did you do that?
- 424
- 00:46:33,667 --> 00:46:36,501
- Sleight of hand is easy when your audience
- is as drunk as a skunk.
- 425
- 00:46:38,208 --> 00:46:44,614
- I will have you know
- that I am as sober as a judge.
- 426
- 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,741
- Of course you are, Georgie darling.
- 427
- 00:47:13,167 --> 00:47:15,875
- For some reason I'm in the RAF
- and I don't like to salute!
- 428
- 00:47:15,958 --> 00:47:17,915
- You little cheeky chappie.
- 429
- 00:47:19,208 --> 00:47:22,326
- Georgie! You shouldn't have!
- 430
- 00:47:23,292 --> 00:47:24,499
- I didn't.
- 431
- 00:47:24,667 --> 00:47:27,501
- (LAUGHTER)
- 432
- 00:47:28,083 --> 00:47:30,575
- Hang on a second;
- I should have more than this!
- 433
- 00:47:30,667 --> 00:47:32,784
- Oh yes you did, but I left the barmaid
- a really good tip.
- 434
- 00:47:33,875 --> 00:47:35,241
- I bet you did.
- 435
- 00:47:42,083 --> 00:47:43,494
- Good evening, sergeant.
- 436
- 00:47:46,333 --> 00:47:47,414
- Charlie?
- 437
- 00:47:51,208 --> 00:47:52,619
- Are the others inside?
- 438
- 00:47:55,417 --> 00:47:56,658
- Charlie?
- 439
- 00:47:59,500 --> 00:48:00,707
- GEORGE: Fix up, fix up.
- 440
- 00:48:05,208 --> 00:48:06,119
- Hold him.
- 441
- 00:48:12,417 --> 00:48:13,498
- He's just had a few too many.
- 442
- 00:48:15,500 --> 00:48:19,744
- Put him in the back of George's car.
- Use this to get a taxi.
- 443
- 00:48:20,083 --> 00:48:21,494
- Thank you, sir.
- 444
- 00:48:26,208 --> 00:48:27,415
- Douglas.
- 445
- 00:48:29,917 --> 00:48:32,000
- You have had far too much to drink.
- 446
- 00:48:36,417 --> 00:48:39,251
- Just make sure you wipe your feet
- before you get in.
- 447
- 00:48:43,500 --> 00:48:44,707
- Is there enough room for me?
- 448
- 00:48:51,833 --> 00:48:55,326
- Kate, about the other night.
- 449
- 00:48:58,208 --> 00:49:01,906
- It's okay, I know you can't help it.
- 450
- 00:49:10,708 --> 00:49:13,325
- KATE: That was very kind of you, by the way.
- 451
- 00:49:15,125 --> 00:49:18,823
- If he had been sick on my shoes,
- I would have left him there.
- 452
- 00:49:28,208 --> 00:49:29,619
- Christ!
- 453
- 00:49:46,958 --> 00:49:48,620
- They're as thick as thieves those two.
- 454
- 00:49:59,792 --> 00:50:01,533
- Good morning, George... Douglas.
- 455
- 00:50:01,667 --> 00:50:02,157
- Morning.
- 456
- 00:50:02,250 --> 00:50:03,240
- Good morning, Kate.
- 457
- 00:50:04,792 --> 00:50:06,499
- Saw you weren't flying today.
- 458
- 00:50:06,583 --> 00:50:09,496
- No, thank god.
- This one doesn't think so though...
- 459
- 00:50:11,583 --> 00:50:12,573
- That's better.
- 460
- 00:50:15,500 --> 00:50:19,073
- There's a new Laurel and Hardy playing
- at the Ritz this afternoon.
- 461
- 00:50:29,875 --> 00:50:32,492
- Oh! Well, I'm busy.
- 462
- 00:50:36,542 --> 00:50:38,499
- I've got to see a man about a dog.
- 463
- 00:50:44,083 --> 00:50:45,369
- GEORGE: Behave!
- 464
- 00:51:20,833 --> 00:51:25,578
- I do love Laurel and Hardy. Did you enjoy it?
- I didn't hear you laughing much.
- 465
- 00:51:25,667 --> 00:51:28,739
- I couldn't hear most of it;
- the old chap next to me kept snoring.
- 466
- 00:51:35,167 --> 00:51:36,157
- Afternoon, Kate!
- 467
- 00:51:36,375 --> 00:51:37,491
- KATE: Hello, Patrick.
- 468
- 00:51:37,792 --> 00:51:38,748
- Enjoy the picture?
- 469
- 00:51:38,833 --> 00:51:41,325
- I did. No Mrs Fuller with you today?
- 470
- 00:51:41,417 --> 00:51:48,699
- PATRICK: No, W.I. meeting.
- Now listen, Kate, I owe George a pound.
- 471
- 00:51:49,333 --> 00:51:54,203
- Little wager between gentlemen.
- And I was wondering if you could get that to him.
- 472
- 00:51:57,167 --> 00:51:58,954
- Not a problem.
- 473
- 00:51:59,208 --> 00:52:04,249
- Funny thing whisky. A couple of single malts
- and I will bet on anything.
- 474
- 00:52:04,833 --> 00:52:09,407
- Two flies on a pork scratching
- and mine has to bugger off first.
- 475
- 00:52:09,500 --> 00:52:14,575
- Oh... I'll err...
- I'll make sure he gets it.
- 476
- 00:52:15,125 --> 00:52:18,289
- PATRICK: Awfully kind of you.
- Heading back to base, are we?
- 477
- 00:52:18,792 --> 00:52:21,910
- No, Flight Lieutenant Miller
- is taking me for a drive.
- 478
- 00:52:27,208 --> 00:52:29,575
- He's a handsome chap, but he's awfully tall.
- 479
- 00:52:29,708 --> 00:52:31,370
- Yes, awfully tall.
- 480
- 00:52:31,792 --> 00:52:33,499
- Nice to meet you.
- 481
- 00:52:34,042 --> 00:52:36,329
- Well take care of this one, she's a good'n.
- 482
- 00:52:36,458 --> 00:52:42,284
- And sorry about the snoring.
- Doris can't stand it either.
- 483
- 00:52:43,375 --> 00:52:44,491
- Goodbye, Patrick.
- 484
- 00:52:44,583 --> 00:52:45,494
- PATRICK: Goodbye.
- 485
- 00:52:45,583 --> 00:52:46,494
- Goodbye.
- 486
- 00:52:47,917 --> 00:52:53,743
- Here, you can give this to George...
- Flies on a pork scratching?
- 487
- 00:53:03,083 --> 00:53:05,075
- George told me you were a fighter pilot.
- 488
- 00:53:05,750 --> 00:53:07,082
- I was.
- 489
- 00:53:07,500 --> 00:53:09,708
- So why did you join Bomber Command?
- 490
- 00:53:11,708 --> 00:53:13,199
- More leg room!
- 491
- 00:53:14,708 --> 00:53:17,041
- No, really.
- 492
- 00:53:17,625 --> 00:53:18,832
- Well why did you join?
- 493
- 00:53:19,208 --> 00:53:20,415
- My brother.
- 494
- 00:53:20,542 --> 00:53:21,498
- Your brother?
- 495
- 00:53:21,583 --> 00:53:22,164
- Yes.
- 496
- 00:53:22,250 --> 00:53:24,663
- Is he a pilot?
- 497
- 00:53:24,958 --> 00:53:29,749
- No, he was in the Fusiliers,
- he fought at Dunkirk.
- 498
- 00:53:29,875 --> 00:53:34,791
- He told me that I should join the WAAF;
- said it was the right thing to do.
- 499
- 00:53:34,958 --> 00:53:37,666
- After he died I couldn't just sit at home,
- 500
- 00:53:37,750 --> 00:53:39,867
- so I followed his advice
- and joined up a week later.
- 501
- 00:53:39,958 --> 00:53:41,494
- I'm sorry.
- 502
- 00:53:44,917 --> 00:53:46,499
- What was his name?
- 503
- 00:53:47,083 --> 00:53:49,496
- Colin.
- 504
- 00:53:49,583 --> 00:53:52,997
- Before the war he was an illustrator
- for a local newspaper.
- 505
- 00:53:53,667 --> 00:53:57,331
- As a boy his room was filled
- with little cartoons and sketches.
- 506
- 00:53:57,500 --> 00:54:00,288
- I think he would have got on well
- with my brother.
- 507
- 00:54:00,583 --> 00:54:03,496
- He was also always scribbling away
- at something or other.
- 508
- 00:54:04,792 --> 00:54:06,499
- Oh, what is his name?
- 509
- 00:54:09,792 --> 00:54:11,124
- Ron.
- 510
- 00:54:57,958 --> 00:54:59,699
- I'm so sorry.
- 511
- 00:55:04,250 --> 00:55:05,491
- Your poor mother.
- 512
- 00:55:14,292 --> 00:55:15,658
- Fancy a drink?
- 513
- 00:55:18,500 --> 00:55:23,165
- Depends.
- Is Stan Laurel going to be there?
- 514
- 00:55:24,833 --> 00:55:26,165
- Who?
- 515
- 00:55:30,708 --> 00:55:32,700
- (WHISPERING)
- 516
- 00:55:46,917 --> 00:55:51,662
- Huh hum.
- Mayfield. Smith.
- 517
- 00:55:57,792 --> 00:56:00,785
- (WHISPERING/ARGUING)
- 518
- 00:56:14,625 --> 00:56:19,416
- Evening.
- So, how was the film?
- 519
- 00:56:22,417 --> 00:56:25,034
- Oh... That good, huh?
- 520
- 00:56:30,208 --> 00:56:31,039
- From Patrick.
- 521
- 00:56:31,833 --> 00:56:36,578
- Ah, excellent.
- Thought the old fella was never going to pay up.
- 522
- 00:56:39,792 --> 00:56:42,580
- Just remembering the last time
- we all went to the pictures.
- 523
- 00:56:43,625 --> 00:56:45,742
- Ended in disaster.
- 524
- 00:56:46,333 --> 00:56:50,282
- Well, actually to be honest
- it started with disaster.
- 525
- 00:56:52,875 --> 00:56:54,832
- Alf somehow managed to get himself
- 526
- 00:56:54,917 --> 00:56:58,786
- locked in a cubical minutes
- before the film started.
- 527
- 00:56:58,917 --> 00:57:02,706
- Anyway, Charlie decides to climb over
- and help him you see,
- 528
- 00:57:02,958 --> 00:57:05,871
- but when he does he lands foot
- first into the toilet.
- 529
- 00:57:05,958 --> 00:57:07,824
- And to make matters worse,
- Alf hadn't flushed.
- 530
- 00:57:07,917 --> 00:57:10,375
- So Charlie's shouting and swearing,
- 531
- 00:57:10,458 --> 00:57:13,417
- while Alf is trying to crawl out
- from underneath the cubical.
- 532
- 00:57:13,875 --> 00:57:17,414
- My god, he tears a hole
- the size of the Western Front in his trousers!
- 533
- 00:57:17,500 --> 00:57:22,040
- Mummy's boy has gone off to find an usherette
- and comes back with that big one. You know,
- 534
- 00:57:22,167 --> 00:57:24,409
- the one that looks like she's eaten
- all the ices.
- 535
- 00:57:25,500 --> 00:57:28,823
- Well she shoulders the door,
- finds Charlie in the drink,
- 536
- 00:57:28,917 --> 00:57:31,830
- and Alf with his bomb bay doors
- open for inspection.
- 537
- 00:57:33,375 --> 00:57:36,493
- (LAUGHING) Oh yes.
- 538
- 00:57:41,208 --> 00:57:43,541
- Chaps didn't let that story go
- for quite a while.
- 539
- 00:58:04,042 --> 00:58:08,332
- What happened, George?
- The night Alf died?
- 540
- 00:58:36,917 --> 00:58:39,500
- We were heading back
- over the North Sea from Bremen.
- 541
- 00:58:42,333 --> 00:58:46,498
- Thought we were home and dry when we got hit
- by Night Fighters. It was that quick.
- 542
- 00:58:49,917 --> 00:58:52,500
- Didn't realise Alf was hit until we landed.
- 543
- 00:58:56,167 --> 00:59:01,492
- We might have been able to stop the bleeding,
- but he said nothing.
- 544
- 00:59:06,167 --> 00:59:08,580
- I should have known that something was wrong.
- 545
- 00:59:17,083 --> 00:59:18,790
- I don't know.
- 546
- 00:59:21,625 --> 00:59:24,618
- Maybe his luck just ran out.
- 547
- 00:59:49,500 --> 00:59:50,707
- And then I showed up.
- 548
- 00:59:53,583 --> 00:59:55,495
- And then you showed up. Urgh.
- 549
- 01:00:09,792 --> 01:00:11,784
- (GLASSES CLINK)
- 550
- 01:00:13,417 --> 01:00:16,581
- Oh..! And I thought you didn't drink?
- 551
- 01:00:20,208 --> 01:00:21,790
- Not often.
- 552
- 01:00:44,167 --> 01:00:46,500
- So, how goes the investigation?
- 553
- 01:00:47,292 --> 01:00:48,783
- What investigation?
- 554
- 01:00:48,917 --> 01:00:53,161
- Your investigation into the clandestine activities
- of sergeants Mayfield and Smith.
- 555
- 01:00:53,250 --> 01:00:54,081
- Who?
- 556
- 01:00:54,167 --> 01:00:58,912
- Oh, oh!
- Thomas and Henry! You've noticed them too?
- 557
- 01:00:59,917 --> 01:01:02,079
- They do seem to enjoy one another's company.
- 558
- 01:01:02,792 --> 01:01:05,250
- No, no, it's much more than that.
- 559
- 01:01:06,917 --> 01:01:09,534
- They are up to something.
- 560
- 01:01:10,792 --> 01:01:13,205
- I think you're going about the whole thing
- the wrong way.
- 561
- 01:01:14,333 --> 01:01:15,323
- Bollocks!
- 562
- 01:01:16,500 --> 01:01:21,746
- Okay then. A pound says I can find out
- what they're up to before you can.
- 563
- 01:01:26,083 --> 01:01:27,494
- You're on.
- 564
- 01:01:36,792 --> 01:01:38,579
- Where the hell did you find this?
- 565
- 01:01:39,292 --> 01:01:40,908
- I confiscated it.
- 566
- 01:01:43,708 --> 01:01:48,157
- Oh the utter, utter bastards!
- They're making an absolute fortune.
- 567
- 01:01:48,750 --> 01:01:50,742
- How many pairs of boots have they sold?
- 568
- 01:01:51,083 --> 01:01:51,618
- One.
- 569
- 01:01:51,708 --> 01:01:52,323
- What!?
- 570
- 01:01:52,417 --> 01:01:56,206
- They have been selling the same pair of boots
- over and over again.
- 571
- 01:01:57,625 --> 01:02:01,073
- On the third of March they sold
- a pair of flight boots
- 572
- 01:02:01,208 --> 01:02:04,997
- to the landlord of the Dog and Duck,
- for ten shillings.
- 573
- 01:02:05,917 --> 01:02:08,705
- On the eleventh of March
- the landlord of the Dog and Duck
- 574
- 01:02:08,792 --> 01:02:10,499
- had a visit from the local bobby.
- 575
- 01:02:10,875 --> 01:02:13,583
- Who had been made aware
- that the unfortunate landlord
- 576
- 01:02:13,667 --> 01:02:16,535
- was in possession of government property.
- 577
- 01:02:17,167 --> 01:02:22,538
- He promptly confiscated the boots
- and returned them to our crooked friends,
- 578
- 01:02:22,667 --> 01:02:25,330
- in return for the sum of three shillings.
- 579
- 01:02:25,667 --> 01:02:28,125
- On the twenty third of March
- 580
- 01:02:28,250 --> 01:02:33,496
- they sold a pair of boots to dear Mrs...
- Well, do I need to carry on?
- 581
- 01:02:33,583 --> 01:02:35,415
- That's bloody genius!
- 582
- 01:02:35,500 --> 01:02:37,412
- That's bloody criminal!
- 583
- 01:02:37,500 --> 01:02:41,494
- What's criminal is that they did not cut me in
- on the action.
- 584
- 01:02:46,333 --> 01:02:50,077
- Georgie!
- You owe me a pound.
- 585
- 01:03:28,083 --> 01:03:29,073
- George!
- 586
- 01:03:39,083 --> 01:03:40,073
- George!
- 587
- 01:03:47,500 --> 01:03:49,492
- Time to get up.
- 588
- 01:05:03,417 --> 01:05:04,908
- What is it?
- 589
- 01:05:06,042 --> 01:05:09,206
- It's Henry. He's been signed off by the M.O.
- 590
- 01:05:09,500 --> 01:05:10,286
- What!?
- 591
- 01:05:10,417 --> 01:05:13,785
- That's not even the worst part.
- We've got the Jerry.
- 592
- 01:05:13,917 --> 01:05:14,998
- Huh, that's all we need.
- 593
- 01:05:15,083 --> 01:05:17,791
- Chaps, you all know Schmidt,
- Henry's replacement tonight.
- 594
- 01:05:17,875 --> 01:05:19,332
- No sausage jokes please, Thomas.
- 595
- 01:05:19,500 --> 01:05:21,833
- Oh, don't be a sour kraut, George.
- 596
- 01:05:26,500 --> 01:05:28,992
- WING COMMANDER: Tonight's target
- is an industrial complex
- 597
- 01:05:29,083 --> 01:05:30,574
- on the outskirts of Berlin.
- 598
- 01:05:31,083 --> 01:05:33,700
- You'll be flying down
- through northern Germany,
- 599
- 01:05:33,833 --> 01:05:37,622
- reaching your target at approximately
- twenty-three hundred hours.
- 600
- 01:05:38,167 --> 01:05:41,831
- We have reports of light cloud cover
- over northern Germany and Berlin,
- 601
- 01:05:42,250 --> 01:05:45,493
- so you can expect contact
- on your inward track.
- 602
- 01:05:45,667 --> 01:05:49,160
- Stay alert!
- Particularly you, Tail Gunners.
- 603
- 01:05:49,500 --> 01:05:56,623
- It's a long flight, I don't want any mistakes.
- Take off is at seventeen-thirty hours.
- 604
- 01:05:56,833 --> 01:06:00,702
- Squadron Leader Mitchell will talk you
- through the route in further detail now,
- 605
- 01:06:00,833 --> 01:06:04,406
- before your individual briefings.
- 606
- 01:06:04,500 --> 01:06:10,497
- I cannot stress enough the importance
- of this mission.
- 607
- 01:06:10,833 --> 01:06:13,541
- Good luck.
- Stay sharp.
- 608
- 01:06:21,500 --> 01:06:28,031
- Fourteen o' six in five, four, three, two, one.
- 609
- 01:07:09,375 --> 01:07:11,492
- I'll err, see you chaps later.
- 610
- 01:07:29,583 --> 01:07:30,573
- No.
- 611
- 01:07:34,083 --> 01:07:35,290
- Think I'm going to go and get ready.
- 612
- 01:07:46,083 --> 01:07:47,494
- How are you feeling Charlie?
- 613
- 01:07:54,042 --> 01:07:55,499
- Better.
- 614
- 01:10:47,083 --> 01:10:49,166
- Do you have any of those weather reports?
- 615
- 01:10:49,292 --> 01:10:51,784
- Yes, this one.
- 616
- 01:11:12,292 --> 01:11:13,954
- Douglas.
- 617
- 01:11:20,708 --> 01:11:22,119
- I...
- 618
- 01:11:26,208 --> 01:11:27,494
- I'm.
- 619
- 01:11:30,667 --> 01:11:34,206
- I just want to say... Good luck.
- 620
- 01:11:57,500 --> 01:11:59,492
