00:01:24Who can fail to look back with pride on those days when everyone shared in the common struggle,
00:01:30each serving his fellow men to his utmost?
00:01:33Those days of blood, sweat, and tears,
00:01:36when everyone unselfishly gave of their best in the cause of freedom.
00:01:41Our forces were grimly determined to overcome every obstacle.
00:01:45With the flair of youth in uniform, our country was justly proud of her men,
00:01:50whose courage and fortitude never faltered.
00:01:53Even when their backs were to the wall,
00:01:55they demonstrated an endurance and ability that surpassed every expectation but their own.
00:02:02Battles were won and lost, but their confidence never relaxed or retarded.
00:02:07Indeed, it increased in sincerity.
00:02:10They faced seemingly unsurmountable tasks
00:02:13and endured everything with light hearts and unfailing generosity of spirit.
00:02:19♪♪
00:02:25Are you there, Mary?
00:02:28Can it come in?
00:02:33We need you.
00:02:35You can feed the nation.
00:02:38I've enough damn trouble feeding me own man.
00:02:51Oh, Mary, do you mind if I borrow your spare frying pan?
00:02:55I burnt mine this morning.
00:02:57Well, if you must, you must. Here's the soap you asked me for.
00:03:00Thanks ever so. I'll let you have it back.
00:03:02It seems I'm always popping into your house and borrowing things.
00:03:06But still, that's what friends and neighbors are for, isn't it?
00:03:09Is it?
00:03:10Been shopping, love?
00:03:11Pants and vest for Sam and a pair of stockings for old Margaret.
00:03:14Did you have to queue for them?
00:03:16No. As I walked into the shop, they flew into me hands.
00:03:19I know, love, I know.
00:03:21I queued for two hours the other day, and when I got to the door, they wanted blood transfusion.
00:03:25Well, I'll have to get out Sam's tail. There'll be ructions. Good night.
00:03:28Oh, could you let me have a little fat to put in there?
00:03:31No.
00:03:32Oh. Ta-ta.
00:03:34Ta-ta.
00:03:52Why does a big book have it like this?
00:03:54Plenty to eat, plenty to drink, plenty of fags and cigars.
00:03:57While all we can do is to save up for a damn good blowout at Christmas time.
00:04:02And what do we get for it?
00:04:04A bellyache.
00:04:06Why are you always on about capitalists, Joe?
00:04:09Well, take the very word. What does it stand for?
00:04:12Cap it all, cop it all, keep it all.
00:04:14You know, the trouble with us is we're not organized.
00:04:16If we'd worked together, we'd save ourselves from the capitalist chains.
00:04:20We're not all chains. Some of these boys aren't married.
00:04:22You know, the trouble with you is you don't know.
00:04:25They're keeping you down.
00:04:26Here, tell me, what freedom have I got?
00:04:29Freedom of speech.
00:04:30Oh, and they'd take that off me if they could.
00:04:32They'd have to cut your blinking head off to do that.
00:04:34Believe me, if I was in power, you'd have freedom.
00:04:36You'd all be riding around in posh cars wearing top hats.
00:04:39I wouldn't.
00:04:40Oh, yes, you would. You'd have freedom.
00:04:42And you'd be smoking cigars a foot long.
00:04:44I certainly wouldn't. I don't like cigars. They make me sick.
00:04:47You know what we'd all be doing if you were in power, don't you, Joe?
00:04:50No.
00:04:51We'd all be doing this. We're ruddy well told.
00:04:53You know, sometimes, Sam, I think you're a capitalist at heart.
00:04:57Well, if it wasn't for them, you wouldn't have a job.
00:04:59They don't have to pay us starvation wages.
00:05:02Blimey, how could they live in skeletons?
00:05:04Now, come off it, Joe.
00:05:05I get the same money as you and I manage all right.
00:05:08Aye, but you've got your two girls to help out.
00:05:10I've only got young Charlie and the sergeant says he's got no blooming brains.
00:05:14You can't blame the capitalists for that.
00:05:16Joe, if ever you get tired of living, let me know and I'll tell you what to do about it.
00:05:20If he wants to make the do, stop buying him so much.
00:05:22Oh, let him grumble, Larry. He's supposed to be the sign of a happy man.
00:05:25Happy man? Why, when they hang clipping, he looks a happier man than Joe.
00:05:29Sam, why is it the chap's almost trying to take the mic out of me?
00:05:33Well, ask yourself, Joe. Don't you see you're all mixed up?
00:05:37A man can only eat one dinner at a time and sleep in one bed at a time.
00:05:42All he wants is some clothes to keep him warm and respectable.
00:05:45And a few pints of wallop when he feels like it.
00:05:48And a nice little home where he can get a little bit of peace and quiet.
00:05:52And that's where I'm eating for now.
00:05:54Sam, I've been thinking.
00:05:56That's your trouble, you see.
00:05:58You're trying to do something your brain's not meant to do.
00:06:00Just like an agitator.
00:06:02Agitator?
00:06:03Yeah.
00:06:04That's the bloke who gets his name from two Greek words.
00:06:07Agi, I like work. Tater, at a distance.
00:06:11You know, Joe, I think you're the finest secret weapon we've got.
00:06:16Come on.
00:06:17Right.
00:06:34Suck up, Joe.
00:06:35Now take this thing. It's just another capitalist trap.
00:06:38They've got to have a robot to check on us just because they don't trust us.
00:06:41Yeah, it's a crying shame, isn't it?
00:06:43Did he ever tell you about my clock?
00:06:44Don't want to tell me about it. I've seen enough of it.
00:06:46No, I mean the clock. I invented it.
00:06:48I told the time.
00:06:49Sure.
00:06:50Summer time, winter time.
00:06:51Closing time.
00:06:52Greenwich mean time.
00:06:54Kissing time.
00:06:55Go away.
00:06:56Well, it's time I wasn't here. I'll see you with the nuts and bolts in the morning.
00:06:59Aye, if the factory's not blitzed during the night.
00:07:01Optimist to the last, eh?
00:07:09WHISTLING
00:07:14Hello, Mother.
00:07:18Hello, Sam. Tea's nearly ready.
00:07:21Good. Nice to be home early for once.
00:07:23You know, Mrs. Trigg, you haven't changed a bit since this morning.
00:07:26Still beautiful.
00:07:27I wouldn't swap you for a couple of Betty Grables.
00:07:30Oh, go on with you, you old leg puller.
00:07:33Not very nice leg, too.
00:07:35Now stop it. That's what comes of marrying a cockney.
00:07:37I found some of your favourite tobacco.
00:07:39Oh, that's fine, love. A quiet read and a good smoke and me feet up, eh?
00:07:42Just like old times.
00:07:43Aye, just like old times.
00:07:45Come on.
00:07:46Bob's home.
00:07:47Hello, son.
00:07:48Oh, hello, Dad.
00:07:50Well, well, what's all this? Winter woolly week?
00:07:53Mum bought them for you.
00:07:56Ah, well, who's going to break that in for me?
00:07:58I hate wearing new vests.
00:08:00Always makes me feel as though I've been to a flea circus and come home with a leading lady.
00:08:03Mum says they're just the sort of things you need in the short.
00:08:06Oh, that's it. We get a bomb and I don't get a cold, is that it?
00:08:12Um, I say, uh, Dad?
00:08:14Yes, son?
00:08:15Dad, uh, do you believe in lease lend?
00:08:18Certainly do.
00:08:20Well, would you let me fly, Bob?
00:08:22What? What for?
00:08:24I, uh, I want to go to the pictures.
00:08:26That's only a bob.
00:08:27I know, but I'm going with somebody.
00:08:30I was just to meet them inside.
00:08:32What's she like?
00:08:34Oh, she's smashing.
00:08:36Smashing.
00:08:38What's her name?
00:08:40Mavis.
00:08:42Mavis.
00:08:44Well, that's worth flying, Bob.
00:08:48Thanks a lot, Dad.
00:08:50Dad, I was wondering if I might not bring Mavis back here.
00:08:55I'm home!
00:08:57We heard you.
00:08:58She's always doing that.
00:08:59Just when you want to say something important, Margot has to butt in.
00:09:02Hello, Dad.
00:09:03Hello, Bob.
00:09:04Slipping kid.
00:09:05One of these days, you're going to knock that door right through the wall.
00:09:07Oh, we're cooking.
00:09:08You look brand old.
00:09:09I was all right till now.
00:09:11Now, don't do that.
00:09:12Poor old Dad.
00:09:14My piggy aunts.
00:09:15Who are these for?
00:09:16Now, don't light that pipe, son.
00:09:18Tea's ready.
00:09:19And you can all sit down.
00:09:21I won't be long.
00:09:22Who are these for?
00:09:23I bought them for you.
00:09:24And I was lucky to get them.
00:09:26Who's somebody else?
00:09:27Another look.
00:09:28I'm not wearing those.
00:09:29Now, what's the matter with you, girl?
00:09:30The pure wool?
00:09:31Imagine me going out with our foreman wearing those.
00:09:34Well, what's it to do with your foreman?
00:09:36You don't know our foreman.
00:09:38What did he do before the war?
00:09:39Commercial traveller.
00:09:41Commercial traveller?
00:09:42You wear those woolen stockings, my girl.
00:09:44Hello, everyone.
00:09:45Hello, Anne.
00:09:46I didn't hear you come in.
00:09:48Quite a change.
00:09:49What have you been up to today?
00:09:50Nothing.
00:09:51Those stockings have knocked all the spirit out of me.
00:09:53Evening paper come, Anne?
00:09:54Haven't seen it.
00:09:55I thought you brought it in.
00:09:56Oh, that was yesterday's.
00:09:57I was reading it at the works today.
00:09:59Whereabouts?
00:10:01What do you mean, whereabouts?
00:10:02In the canteen, of course.
00:10:04Well, I'm tired of reading about war news.
00:10:06Well, maybe you're right, mother.
00:10:08Things would be different if I had anything to do with it.
00:10:10Yeah.
00:10:11I suppose we'd win straight away.
00:10:13I wouldn't go so far as to say that,
00:10:14but I'd have a bash at something.
00:10:16I remember when I was in France in 1918.
00:10:18Oh, is that it again?
00:10:20Tell us about the boys, Dad.
00:10:22Oh, Dad.
00:10:23Don't you be salty.
00:10:24Dad's right.
00:10:25It's action that counts.
00:10:27Sometimes there's too much action around here for my liking.
00:10:30Remember what those monkeys did to our football ground?
00:10:32Don't mind an odd town or two going west,
00:10:34but when it comes to football grounds and pubs,
00:10:36that finishes me.
00:10:37Oh, shut up.
00:10:38I'm sick of hearing about the war.
00:10:41Oh, love.
00:10:42You're not eating anything.
00:10:44Oh, I don't feel very hungry.
00:10:45Thank you, Mum.
00:10:46Bet she's in love again.
00:10:48Well, I suppose she is in love.
00:10:49I fell in love with your mother.
00:10:50Now look at the result.
00:10:52Oh, no.
00:10:53Go on.
00:10:54See her at the door, Margaret.
00:10:55Can't Bob go for a change?
00:10:57Stop arguing and see who's at the door.
00:10:59It's always me.
00:11:00Bob and Ann get the best of everything.
00:11:02Best clothes, best education.
00:11:09Hello, young Margaret.
00:11:10Can I come in?
00:11:11I suppose so.
00:11:12You always do.
00:11:15Yes, Mrs. Higgins, Mum.
00:11:18I wonder what she wants to buy this time.
00:11:21Good evening, everybody.
00:11:23Joe will be over later for a chat, Sam,
00:11:25unless you're going out.
00:11:26Better settle down and have a nice quiet evening.
00:11:28Hasn't Joe got some other place he can go to?
00:11:30I've told him often enough, but he won't go.
00:11:32What can I do for you, love?
00:11:33I wonder, could I borrow a bit of tea?
00:11:35I suspect so.
00:11:36I seem to have run short this week.
00:11:37You did last week and the week before.
00:11:39I can't seem to make it go round.
00:11:41Well, you want to shove a drop of rum in it.
00:11:42Why?
00:11:43That'll make everything go round.
00:11:44Will it?
00:11:54It's all I can spare, love.
00:11:56Oh, well, thanks ever so.
00:11:58I'll let you have it back.
00:11:59I'll save this for next week.
00:12:00It'll come in handy.
00:12:01Well, so long, everybody.
00:12:02Don't bother to see me out.
00:12:04I'll shut the door.
00:12:06Ta-ta.
00:12:07Ta-ta.
00:12:08Don't you waste it.
00:12:09You know, she's borrowed so much stuff from us,
00:12:11I'd feel more at home in her house than ours.
00:12:13Perhaps she'd save it up for a rainy day.
00:12:15Or like a flood.
00:12:17Well, you've got to give people a lift these days.
00:12:21That doesn't mean we've got to support them all together.
00:12:24What's the matter with your cup, son?
00:12:25What's the matter with the saucer?
00:12:30Just a few lumps.
00:12:33If I said out loud what I was thinking,
00:12:35I'd burn the paper off the wall.
00:12:37You know, this is getting serious.
00:12:39I wonder what she'll borrow next.
00:12:41I bet it's butter.
00:12:42I bet it's jam.
00:12:43Butter.
00:12:44Jam.
00:12:45Get over here, please.
00:12:46Oh, the devil's that at the door.
00:12:48Margaret.
00:12:49Oh, no wonder I suffer from indigestion.
00:12:51That's old Margaret all over.
00:12:53Always does things so willingly.
00:12:55It's all right, you know.
00:12:56After all, she's only nine, isn't she?
00:12:58Mark it in.
00:12:59There's a man called about the rent.
00:13:02Well, tell him to fetch it in.
00:13:04He says he's going to raise the rent.
00:13:06Well, good luck to him.
00:13:07We can't.
00:13:08Dad says he can't raise the rent.
00:13:11Why don't you open the window and tell all the neighbours?
00:13:14To shut the door?
00:13:15Oh, he'll do that.
00:13:16I'm fed up with opening and shutting doors.
00:13:18Well, go and shut that one.
00:13:20If you've never had anything worse than that to do in this life,
00:13:22you won't come to any harm.
00:13:23In there.
00:13:25If I'd said that to my father, I'd have got to get Tanning.
00:13:28Your father?
00:13:29Now, don't you say anything against him.
00:13:31My father was a jolly sight, better man than your father is.
00:13:35Now, with all this confusion, I've forgotten the luncheon, mate.
00:13:38Well, where is it?
00:13:39It's on the sideboard, love.
00:13:41I wonder where the IT came in.
00:13:43Will you open it for me, son?
00:13:44Poor old dad, making you work overtime.
00:13:46I'd like a tenner for every one of these I've opened.
00:13:48When I was in France in 1918.
00:13:50Now, that'll do.
00:13:55Phew, get your gas mask.
00:13:56Why, is it on the turn?
00:13:58On the turn, it's half way up the street.
00:14:00Oh, and it's usually so reliable.
00:14:03Oh, perhaps it'll be all right if we put some sauce on it.
00:14:05Sauce isn't one sauce, it's one's carbolic.
00:14:07Oh, what a pain.
00:14:09Right.
00:14:11Oh, thanks.
00:14:12I'll bring it back next week.
00:14:13Oh, thanks.
00:14:14I'll bring it back next week.
00:14:16Yes, you bring it up before then.
00:14:20There's nothing more to eat, I'd better clear away.
00:14:22I've got some mending to do.
00:14:24Oh, that was a very nice tea.
00:14:26I'd better be getting along, I've got a date.
00:14:28I hope she's good looking this time.
00:14:29If you were half as good looking, you do.
00:14:31I like that.
00:14:32Why, our foreman says that I'm pretty enough to be a film star.
00:14:35He says I'm even...
00:14:36Oh, shut up.
00:14:37Come on, Margaret.
00:14:38Help me to clear these things away.
00:14:40Oh, I've got a change of library book, mum.
00:14:41I won't be long.
00:14:43There's one way I get in and out of the washing up.
00:14:44It's all right, love.
00:14:45I'll help you.
00:14:46Thank you, love.
00:14:47Oh, well, it looks as though I'm going to have a nice peaceful evening after all.
00:15:02Hello, young Margaret.
00:15:03Is he in?
00:15:04Yes, Mr. Higgins.
00:15:05He's in the living room.
00:15:06Fine.
00:15:07I'll go in.
00:15:13Hello, Sam.
00:15:14Italian fleet caught heavy blows.
00:15:15Not bad.
00:15:16Sit down.
00:15:17Make yourself comfortable.
00:15:18Would you like my slippers?
00:15:19No, thanks.
00:15:20I've got a fan, Sam.
00:15:21Thanks.
00:15:22No one's enough.
00:15:23Oh, well, I just thought I'd pop in and have a little chat.
00:15:34Welcome to Scarlet Fever.
00:15:35Why, Sam, it's very nice of Mr. Higgins to drop in.
00:15:39Switch the light on, love.
00:15:40Don't forget the blackout.
00:15:41Very much, Sam.
00:15:43Thanks.
00:15:45Well, there's nothing much to read in the papers apart from this.
00:15:49It says down here...
00:15:50I don't care what it says down there.
00:15:51That's my paper, and I paid for it, and I'll have you know you're sitting in my chair.
00:15:54Ah, it's nice and comfortable.
00:15:56Want a match, Sam?
00:15:58Madden, the admiralty issue in this gratifying news this afternoon indicates that a large
00:16:03force of the Italian fleet has been engaged, and the fight is still...
00:16:06Here, my matches, if you don't mind.
00:16:08Oh, since when?
00:16:09Since when?
00:16:10I don't know why you read this thing.
00:16:11Full of capitalist propaganda.
00:16:13Why, of course, I wouldn't know.
00:16:15That's just your trouble, Sam.
00:16:16You don't read enough.
00:16:18If you took the trouble to study what the great men of the past have said, you'd have
00:16:23some idea why the world's in this state it is.
00:16:25Well, why is it?
00:16:26Well, it's because...
00:16:28Well, what did Gladstone say?
00:16:30Well, go on.
00:16:31You tell me.
00:16:32What did he say?
00:16:33Well, he said that if the people had pulled together and put their shoulders to the wheel,
00:16:38the world would be a better...
00:16:40Well, he said if they did, they'd see a difference.
00:16:44Oh, well, now I see what you mean, Joe.
00:16:47I wish I was in power for a month.
00:16:49I'd soon put things to right.
00:16:51Yeah.
00:16:52A ten-hour week and the pub's open all day.
00:16:54Yes, you can laugh, Sam, but the first thing I'd do would be to stop this war.
00:16:58And how would you do that?
00:16:59Peaceful negotiation.
00:17:01Talk it over with them, meet them halfway.
00:17:04Supposing they didn't want to meet you halfway, what would you do then?
00:17:07Shoot the lot.
00:17:08Oh, so when peace comes, half the people are working twice as hard.
00:17:13Nay, lad, there'll be no need to work after this war.
00:17:15With what we've met from other countries, we'll be on velvet.
00:17:18New houses for everyone, cars for the working man.
00:17:22Beer at six o'clock in the morning.
00:17:24Wait till we take over the railways and everybody travels free.
00:17:27I can just see that day.
00:17:29When last firing sounds, we'll make flaming great bonfires at Ration Boots.
00:17:32Plenty of bacon, plenty of sugar.
00:17:35Oh, plenty of tea.
00:17:37Going out, then?
00:17:38No, Dad, I'm going out to my room to write a letter.
00:17:40Can I come and help you?
00:17:42No, thanks.
00:17:43Sam, did I tell you about my new invention?
00:17:45War office tearing it down?
00:17:46Of course they would.
00:17:47That's just the sort of dumb, silly thing they would do.
00:17:49But it consists of a blooming great parachute six miles wide.
00:18:05It's no use, Andrew.
00:18:19I can't write this letter without becoming libelous.
00:18:21Oh, mustn't do that, dear.
00:18:23Can't afford a scandal.
00:18:25Perhaps you'd like to write it.
00:18:29You are the essence of tact.
00:18:31You're so much better than I am at that sort of thing.
00:18:33You talk as though I made a habit of doing this sort of thing.
00:18:35Oh, I didn't mean that, dear.
00:18:37Now.
00:18:38Oh, designing little hubby.
00:18:39To Mr. and Mrs. Trigg, 5 Bagthorpe Street, Kimsley.
00:18:43Sir and Madam, Sir Andrew Stevens and I are the parents of Squadron Leader Stevens of the Royal Air Force.
00:18:48We are aware that your daughter, whose name I believe is Anne,
00:18:51is doing her utmost to force an engagement upon our son.
00:18:54We request almost to the point of insistence,
00:18:56well, this is all right as far as you've gone, dear,
00:18:58but you must have it without prejudice.
00:19:00Without prejudice.
00:19:01That won't save us.
00:19:02Well, then, we must call.
00:19:04We?
00:19:05One of us.
00:19:06What do you suggest we do? Draw lots?
00:19:08Now, Diana, you know how much better...
00:19:09I am at this sort of thing.
00:19:11Exactly what I was going to say.
00:19:12Well, you realize the matter's urgent.
00:19:13Of course, dear, of course.
00:19:15I'll ring for the car.
00:19:17Well, you're impossible.
00:19:21If I've told you once, I've told you ten times,
00:19:24this is supposed to be a parachute.
00:19:26Now, it's six miles wide.
00:19:28It's painted with invisible paint so the enemy can't see it.
00:19:32Well, how do we see it?
00:19:34We all wear invisible glasses.
00:19:36Now, above the parachute is a long rope,
00:19:39fastened to a balloon by a basket.
00:19:42Couldn't someone else fasten it?
00:19:44I mean the basket's underneath the balloon,
00:19:45where the man sits with a razor blade to cut the rope.
00:19:50Well, how does he know when to cut the rope?
00:19:53He gets a signal from the ground.
00:19:57Oh, I see.
00:19:58He's got a sort of a tic-tac man down there
00:20:00so that when he signals even money,
00:20:02the basket boy cuts the rope.
00:20:05Now, don't try to be funny, Sam.
00:20:07If you don't want to hear it, I'll shut up.
00:20:10Oh, no, it's all right, Joe.
00:20:11I'm interested.
00:20:12Well, go on, tell me what comes next.
00:20:13Well, then, attached to the parachute is the bomb.
00:20:16Now, Sam, hand me a baton.
00:20:19Now, this is the bomb, and it's six miles long.
00:20:22Now, when the rope's caught,
00:20:24when the rope's caught, down comes the parachute.
00:20:26Try again.
00:20:28Oh, my ornament.
00:20:30My umbrella.
00:20:31Oh, leave it.
00:20:33You'll only make matters worse.
00:20:35Get out.
00:20:36I'm sorry.
00:20:37I'm sorry, Sam.
00:20:38If you want to hear the rest of it,
00:20:39you'll find me at the next meeting.
00:20:40I want a nice, quiet evening.
00:20:41Get out.
00:20:42What a mess.
00:20:44Can't leave you men alone five minutes.
00:20:46You're like a lot of kids playing cowboys and Indians.
00:20:49We were.
00:20:50We were playing parachute.
00:20:51Oh, I don't care what you were playing.
00:20:53And that'll be our Margaret.
00:20:55Blimey, what an evening.
00:20:56I'd have been better off at work.
00:20:58Hello.
00:20:59Oh.
00:21:02Who's been fighting?
00:21:03Oh, no one.
00:21:04It's Joe Higgins and your father in their second childhood.
00:21:07I had nothing to do with it.
00:21:09And stop using bad language, my girl.
00:21:11No, leave that to your father.
00:21:12Another thing, how many times have I told you not to bang that door?
00:21:15I didn't bang it.
00:21:16I just let go.
00:21:17She just let go.
00:21:18You haven't been long, Margaret.
00:21:20Are you staying in?
00:21:21I hope not.
00:21:25Any news, sir?
00:21:26I haven't got peace yet.
00:21:28Private Warner, move your bicycle.
00:21:30I wish to pass by.
00:21:31I beg your?
00:21:32Move your bicycle.
00:21:33Turn that thing off.
00:21:34I've heard that program before.
00:21:35Move your bicycle.
00:21:36Please.
00:21:37Turn it off.
00:21:38Move your bicycle.
00:21:39Where are you going?
00:21:40Upstairs.
00:21:41I don't seem to be very popular around here.
00:21:44Kid gets cheekier every day.
00:21:46She'll change when she grows up a bit.
00:21:48I hope she doesn't change for the worse.
00:21:51Oh, the devil's out of that door.
00:21:53There's no need to swear, Sam.
00:21:56I'll go.
00:22:01Whoever it is, where are you?
00:22:04Good evening.
00:22:05Are you Mrs. Twigg?
00:22:06I am.
00:22:07What can I do for you?
00:22:08Shut that blasted door.
00:22:10Oh, come in a moment, will you?
00:22:12The blackout, you know.
00:22:14There, that's better.
00:22:16Now, what is it?
00:22:17It concerns your daughter.
00:22:18My daughter?
00:22:19Which one?
00:22:20I believe her name is Anne.
00:22:22Is that your husband who spoke just now?
00:22:25It was.
00:22:26Well, as my visit also concerns him, perhaps it would be as well if he joined us.
00:22:30Oh.
00:22:31Will you come this way, please?
00:22:36Sam, you're wanted.
00:22:47Who wants me?
00:22:48Oh, hello.
00:22:49Are you Mr. Twigg?
00:22:51I am.
00:22:52Who are you?
00:22:53I'm Lady Stephens, mother of Squadron Leader Stephens.
00:22:55Never heard of him.
00:22:57Lady Stephens has come about our Anne.
00:22:59Our Anne?
00:23:00What's the trouble, Lady Stephens?
00:23:01Are you aware that for some time your daughter has been trying to force an engagement on my son?
00:23:06What?
00:23:07My Anne running after your son?
00:23:09Why, she'd never do such a thing.
00:23:11But she is, Mrs. Twigg.
00:23:13More like he's running after her, and for that I don't blame him.
00:23:16First we've heard of it, isn't it, mother?
00:23:17It is, Sam.
00:23:18Anyway, why shouldn't our daughter be friends with your son if they want to?
00:23:21There's far more than friendship in it, and that's why I've called.
00:23:25Mr. and Mrs. Twigg, I want you to give me your word that from now on you will forbid your daughter any association with my son.
00:23:33Well, of all the cheek.
00:23:35I hesitate to say this, but it's quite obvious that I've not put the matter plainly enough.
00:23:40Even in these so-called democratic days, there still remains a quality known as social standing.
00:23:46Oh, I get you.
00:23:48You mean to say Anne isn't good enough for your boy, is that it?
00:23:51She's good enough for your son, or any other mother's son.
00:23:54Have you ever seen our Anne?
00:23:55No.
00:23:56Have you ever met my son?
00:23:57No, we don't want to.
00:23:58If it's anything like his mother, we...
00:24:00Son, behave.
00:24:01What do you mean behave?
00:24:02Who's doing the misbehaving I'd like to know?
00:24:03Who's daring to walk into my house and tell me, yes, tell me that my daughter...
00:24:06Our daughter.
00:24:07All right, our daughter isn't good enough for her son.
00:24:09I'm not telling you, Mr. Twigg, but I am suggesting very strongly that the proposed match is not desirable.
00:24:15We wish this calculated pursuit stopped.
00:24:18Will you please see that it is done?
00:24:20Well, this is the biggest insult that's ever walked into our house.
00:24:22This is the way out, Lady Stevens.
00:24:24Just a minute.
00:24:26Lady Stevens.
00:24:27Yes?
00:24:28Does your boy love our Anne?
00:24:30He tells me he does.
00:24:32Tells you he does.
00:24:33I know his kind.
00:24:35Leading decent girls up the garden, trying to impress them with his iron-mighty ways.
00:24:38And before you know where you are, there's...
00:24:39Well?
00:24:40Well, there's something in the Sunday papers.
00:24:42That is just ignorant abuse and rather typical.
00:24:45Now, look, I say...
00:24:46Please allow me to continue.
00:24:47You have said enough.
00:24:48I've said enough.
00:24:49I like that.
00:24:50Mrs. Twigg, don't you now realize how impossible the whole thing is?
00:24:54I have as much faith in your daughter's good intentions as apparently you and your husband have in my son's.
00:25:01I'm not the sort of person who would deliberately wreck the happiness of two people who were genuinely in love with each other.
00:25:07But I am convinced that this is not the case.
00:25:10Sir Andrew and I wish the whole sordid affair ended.
00:25:13It will be.
00:25:14Don't worry.
00:25:15I'll see to that.
00:25:16Now I'm going back to me paper.
00:25:18Sam!
00:25:20And I'll tell you something else.
00:25:22Our name may be Twigg, but we've got as good a family tree as you.
00:25:25Perhaps better.
00:25:28Have you anything more to say?
00:25:30No.
00:25:31Well, this way.
00:25:37Untidy.
00:25:39Very satisfactory.
00:25:42Shut that flipping door!
00:25:46Well, of all the...
00:25:50Sam, you won't twig.
00:25:51I'll thank you not to use such language in this house.
00:25:54Well, it's enough to make a parson swear.
00:25:56Of all the stuck-up, insulting, oity-toity people...
00:25:59Oh, dear.
00:26:00I know.
00:26:01Well, we'd better go upstairs, have a talk with Ann, and get this thing settled.
00:26:04No, I suppose we'd better.
00:26:06You're not going back on your word.
00:26:08You told Lady Stevens that the affair would be ended.
00:26:10Yeah, I certainly did.
00:26:12So we're agreed?
00:26:13Yes, we're agreed.
00:26:14But if Ann doesn't come round to our way of thinking...
00:26:16Now, you mustn't be too hasty, Sam.
00:26:18Situations like this need careful handling.
00:26:21By the time I've finished with it, there won't be any situation at all.
00:26:24I'm a gruesome, rather typical, I'm a jolly good-minded...
00:26:27Now, keep your temper, Sam.
00:26:28If you don't, you'll only make matters worse.
00:26:30You're talking about make matters worse.
00:26:31Nothing can make matters worse.
00:26:32Dear, oh, dear.
00:26:33What an evening.
00:26:38Now, don't upset her, Dad.
00:26:39We must see if it's true first.
00:26:41Upset her?
00:26:42What about me?
00:26:43I suppose I've just been tilted sideways.
00:26:48Come in.
00:26:56Hello.
00:26:57What's this, a board meeting?
00:26:59What have you been doing?
00:27:00Well, I've just finished writing a letter.
00:27:03What on earth's the matter?
00:27:05Wouldn't be a love letter by any chance, would it?
00:27:07Well, supposing it is.
00:27:08Squadron leader V. Stevens.
00:27:11Would one of you mind telling me what all this is about?
00:27:14It's about that.
00:27:16About Victor?
00:27:17Yes, that's what the V stands for.
00:27:20His mother's just left.
00:27:21Lady Stevens?
00:27:22Yes.
00:27:23She seems to think you're not good enough for her son.
00:27:25Something about social standing.
00:27:27Standing indeed.
00:27:28If I had my way, she'd never sit down again.
00:27:30Not good enough.
00:27:31Now, now, love.
00:27:32Let Mum explain.
00:27:34You see, your boy's mother's a very, well, difficult woman.
00:27:38Difficult?
00:27:39She's downright rude.
00:27:40Shut up, Sam.
00:27:42Lady Stevens objects to your going about with Victor because...
00:27:46Well, because...
00:27:47Because they are the Stevens and we are the Twigs.
00:27:51I got one in about that, didn't I?
00:27:53Well, she's been very insulting about us.
00:27:56So Dad and I have agreed that it would be better if you didn't see him again.
00:28:00You mean to say you agreed with her?
00:28:02You wouldn't be happy marrying into a family like that.
00:28:04You'd always be looked down on.
00:28:05You don't know his mother, do you?
00:28:06You don't know my Victor, do you?
00:28:08Be that as it may, we've told Lady a thing, the affair's over.
00:28:11Finished.
00:28:12Thank you very much.
00:28:13Why didn't you let me know before you made this decision?
00:28:16How dare you interfere in two people's lives without them even knowing?
00:28:19I'm not surprised at you, Dad, because you'd put your foot into anything.
00:28:23It's you, Mum.
00:28:24And love. It's all for the best.
00:28:27And you'll thank us later on.
00:28:29Thank you for what?
00:28:30For trying to part two people who love each other?
00:28:33Because we do, you know.
00:28:36Shall I tell you what our love means?
00:28:38It means holding on to every precious moment spent in each other's company.
00:28:44Because there might be a tomorrow, but there may only be today.
00:28:48It means writing letters and reading them over and over again.
00:28:52Because they're part of the person who wrote them.
00:28:55We're in love and it was meant to be.
00:28:58And every night we pray that when all this madness is over he'll come back,
00:29:02so that we can get married.
00:29:05Well, I'm free white and 21, and nothing you or his mother can say or do
00:29:10will stop Victor and me loving each other.
00:29:15Now look, Anne, I'm a man of the world.
00:29:18I know this type of young fellow and he's just leading you on
00:29:21and promises he don't intend to keep.
00:29:23He's taking advantage of you because you're a working girl.
00:29:26Haven't you ever told her anything, Mother?
00:29:28Sam, Dad, how dare you talk to me like that?
00:29:32Would you mind leaving me now?
00:29:35Is that an order from your own daughter?
00:29:37Yes, if you like to take it that way.
00:29:39Well, when two people start giving orders in this place,
00:29:41it's time for one of them to go.
00:29:43Very well.
00:29:44Wait a moment.
00:29:45Samuel Twigg, you'll tell no girl of mine to leave my house.
00:29:49Our house.
00:29:50You stay right where you are, Anne,
00:29:52while I have a talk with your father.
00:29:54Oh, blow me, there's two of them at it now.
00:29:59I'm sorry, dear.
00:30:01It's all right, Mum.
00:30:03I understand, in a way.
00:30:20And where do you think you're going?
00:30:22I'm going to the nag's head.
00:30:25And I hope Joe Egan's will be there.
00:30:26I might get a bit of peace.
00:30:36Ah, will you?
00:30:37What news?
00:30:38What news did you expect?
00:30:39Oh, don't tell me they refused.
00:30:41Refused?
00:30:43Have you ever known me fail in any important undertaking?
00:30:46No, Diana.
00:30:47Well, why ask if they refused?
00:30:48Darling, it was hardly a mere direct question.
00:30:50Now, let me get you a drink.
00:30:51You must be tired.
00:30:52No, thank you.
00:30:53Are you tired?
00:30:54Well, yes, yes.
00:30:56I am a little.
00:30:57Now, tell me all about it.
00:31:00In a moment, when you're rested.
00:31:02Well, I have had a pretty foul day at the office.
00:31:04Andrew, you really are impossible.
00:31:06You spend a few idle hours in the office,
00:31:08come home, fill yourself with whiskey and soda
00:31:10in front of a blazing fire,
00:31:11and tell me you're exhausted.
00:31:13If a domestic problem arises,
00:31:15the entire responsibility is shuffled onto me.
00:31:17Do have a drink, Diana.
00:31:19No, thank you, Andrew.
00:31:20Well, it does me good.
00:31:21You might ring the bell for coffee.
00:31:23Oh, very well, my dear.
00:31:27Now, come and tell me what happened, dear.
00:31:30Oh, I found them as I knew I would.
00:31:32An impossible family.
00:31:34Their home was ghastly,
00:31:35and their manners deplorable.
00:31:36Did you see the girl?
00:31:37No.
00:31:38The parents were enough.
00:31:39Well, I take it they've agreed to end the association?
00:31:41They have.
00:31:42At least Mr. Twig did.
00:31:43What a dreadful name.
00:31:44Twig, ghastly, ghastly.
00:31:46Can't you see the times?
00:31:47The engagement has announced...
00:31:49Oh, please, Andrew.
00:31:50The whole unfortunate situation is now ended.
00:31:53Well, I can't understand young Victor
00:31:55making such a fool of himself.
00:31:57After all the world's full of eligible young females,
00:31:59he has to fall in love with a girl called Twig.
00:32:02I'll send him to Eton.
00:32:03I'll send him to Oxford.
00:32:04This costs me a lot of money.
00:32:05At least a year's rating.
00:32:06Exactly.
00:32:07Don't bring that up, dear.
00:32:09Now, what is it, Sims?
00:32:11You rang, Sir Andrew?
00:32:12Coffee, Sims, in my room.
00:32:14Hey, I'll take it all round.
00:32:16I think we've handled the situation very well.
00:32:18Congratulations, Andrew.
00:32:20We will now have our coffee.
00:32:35Hello, Sam.
00:32:38Evening, Sam. What'll it be?
00:32:40Mixed.
00:32:41Up?
00:32:42No, a pint.
00:32:43You were staying in tonight.
00:32:44So did I.
00:32:45Well, what happened?
00:32:46Missus turned you out, eh?
00:32:48Nobody turned me out. I walked out.
00:32:50He that fights and runs away
00:32:52lives to fight another day.
00:32:54Now, don't you start.
00:32:55I've had my face in full for tonight.
00:32:57Well, I'm only sympathising.
00:32:58I can't stand women myself.
00:33:00In fact, I'm a misogynist.
00:33:02I don't care if you're in the ruddy band of oak.
00:33:04Mind your own business.
00:33:05But I thought you were going to have a nice,
00:33:06quiet evening at home reading the paper.
00:33:08How can a fellow have a nice, quiet read
00:33:10without full of screaming women?
00:33:12Nevertheless, the woman's tongue
00:33:14is sharper than the serpent's tooth.
00:33:16You won't have any teeth left in a minute
00:33:18if you don't keep out of this.
00:33:19Now, go on. Get back to the Chamber of Horrors.
00:33:21OK, OK.
00:33:24Don't mind old Bill, Sam.
00:33:26He thinks he's Solomon the Wise Man.
00:33:28Oh, what was so wise about Solomon?
00:33:30He was a bloke who had a thousand wives.
00:33:32Fancy having to listen to a thousand knacking toads, eh?
00:33:34Well, they do say where there's no fight
00:33:36there's no love.
00:33:37Aye, well, in that case, me and my old woman
00:33:39ought to be Romeo and Juliet.
00:33:41You talk about women.
00:33:42I'd like to know what you'd be without them.
00:33:44If you quit a week better off to start with.
00:33:46Aye, and after a night out,
00:33:47there'll be no woman waiting at home to hold an inquest.
00:33:49Now, why is it that women always go off the deep end
00:33:52just because the old man's had a few?
00:33:54Have they had any sense that you mother husbands
00:33:57woo them with kindness?
00:34:01Yeah, that's what caused Eddie Johnson's accident.
00:34:03What was?
00:34:04Oh, somebody told his wife she ought to be nice to him
00:34:06if he came home tiddly.
00:34:07So she met him at the door one night and said,
00:34:10and there was a nice supper and a beautiful fire,
00:34:14everything lovely.
00:34:15Well, what was wrong with that?
00:34:17Nothing, only after the supper she said,
00:34:19well, what about a nice cuddle by the fire?
00:34:21And he said, well, we might as well
00:34:23because if I go home now,
00:34:24the wife will only start another row.
00:34:26That's when she hit him with the poker.
00:34:32Dr. Bernard at home?
00:34:34Dr. Bernard at home?
00:34:37Please help Dr. Bernard at home.
00:34:39Certainly.
00:34:40Good course, Joe.
00:34:42Thanks.
00:34:46Dr. Bernard at home?
00:34:47Huh?
00:34:48Dr. Bernard at home?
00:34:49I didn't know he'd been away.
00:34:51Come on.
00:34:52Two brandies, please, before the fight starts.
00:35:01Two more brandies before the fight starts.
00:35:03Just a minute.
00:35:04Who's gonna fight?
00:35:05Who's gonna fight?
00:35:06You and me for a minute.
00:35:07I've got no money to pay for these drinks.
00:35:09We'll see what the police have to say about this.
00:35:13That's all right, Tom.
00:35:14I'll do my good deed for the day.
00:35:16I'll pay for them later.
00:35:17Thanks very much.
00:35:19What are you having?
00:35:20Nothing, thanks.
00:35:21You're welcome, you know.
00:35:22I know, but I can't afford it.
00:35:23You're taking a bit of a chance ordering brandies
00:35:25you can't pay for.
00:35:26Who is he?
00:35:27Oh, that's all right.
00:35:28It's Joe Higgins.
00:35:29Well, that's what he tells you.
00:35:31You wouldn't have just enough to do it.
00:35:33Who's that on the street?
00:35:35I don't know.
00:35:36Reminds me of a monkey my wife used to have.
00:35:38Monkey?
00:35:39Yeah.
00:35:40Lady or gentleman?
00:35:41What?
00:35:42Lady or gentleman?
00:35:43Oh, it was a lady monkey.
00:35:44Yeah.
00:35:45Oh, lady, that's nice, isn't it?
00:35:47Well, the wife thought she was very sweet.
00:35:49A bit awkward one day when the picker called, though.
00:35:51As soon as he took his hat off, she climbed on the back
00:35:53and started to scratch his ear.
00:35:54Who, the wife?
00:35:55No, the monkey.
00:35:57Oh.
00:35:58Anyway, she was so pleased with me
00:35:59that she used to come every morning,
00:36:00give me a nice cup of tea and a big kiss.
00:36:02Who, the monkey?
00:36:03No, the wife.
00:36:04And believe it or not, I was so fond of her
00:36:06that when she died, I had a son.
00:36:08The wife?
00:36:09No, the monkey.
00:36:10What's the matter with you?
00:36:11Are you always like this?
00:36:12Oh, no, I'm worse.
00:36:13I've been worse than this.
00:36:15I once fell in a vat of beer, 40 gallons in the vat.
00:36:18And I can't swim.
00:36:19Can't swim?
00:36:20How did you get out?
00:36:21I drank my way out.
00:36:22I bet it's the first time that beer's ever had any body in it.
00:36:27Here, I've just had a letter from my brother in Italy.
00:36:30Go on.
00:36:31He sent me a photograph of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
00:36:33Yes.
00:36:34Now, that's funny.
00:36:35That's funny.
00:36:36I saw that last week in Blackpool.
00:36:38Blackpool?
00:36:39Yes.
00:36:40Here, Blackpool Tower doesn't lean.
00:36:42It was leaning when I saw it last.
00:36:44Oh, go away.
00:36:45Go away.
00:36:46Oh, thanks.
00:36:47I can go.
00:36:49And I'll tell you what, to be sorry for this,
00:36:51I'm going to join the army.
00:36:53So am I.
00:36:54Who, you?
00:36:55Yes.
00:36:57Your body's still warm.
00:36:59Have you had your medical?
00:37:00Yes.
00:37:01What did they say you were?
00:37:02They said I was, uh...
00:37:03I know, but I mean, what grade are you?
00:37:06B-something.
00:37:08Well, what's that?
00:37:10Oh, it could be anything.
00:37:12Who told you, the doctor?
00:37:14No, the Sarge.
00:37:16Oh, well, that's what you are, then.
00:37:18Why don't you give them to your missus if you've got one?
00:37:20I've got one, and she knows it,
00:37:22and her place is in the kitchen, and that's where she is now.
00:37:25No, she's not.
00:37:27She's over there.
00:37:29My wife's in the kitchen.
00:37:31Your wife's over there.
00:37:33Looks as though the army's taken over your kitchen.
00:37:36We'll soon see about that.
00:37:39Felicity?
00:37:41Felicity!
00:37:43Leave her alone while I'm talking to her for a minute.
00:37:46Felicity!
00:37:48What do you want?
00:37:50Uh, what's you and your friend having lunch?
00:37:52Two brandies.
00:37:54Before the fight starts.
00:37:56Felicity!
00:37:59What are you doing here, anyway?
00:38:01You know where your place is.
00:38:03Yes, in the kitchen.
00:38:05Come on, Eli.
00:38:07Where are we going?
00:38:09Well, it's a little old town, because I have a feeling
00:38:11that you're going to have another dizzy bout.
00:38:13Come on, Eli.
00:38:17No, after you, Eli.
00:38:19Oh, after you.
00:38:22No, after you.
00:38:24What are we going to have now?
00:38:26Two brandies.
00:38:57Oh, moments range
00:39:01When here and the antelope play
00:39:07Where the light is bad
00:39:10And it's bleeding wood
00:39:13And the skies are a-crowding
00:39:16All day
00:39:26All day
00:39:57Hello.
00:39:59Hello, Mother.
00:40:00Hello, Sam. Feeling any better?
00:40:02Yes, I know.
00:40:03Marvelous what a glass of beer will do for a fella, isn't it?
00:40:05Depends on the fella.
00:40:06Come on. Come on over here.
00:40:07Come on.
00:40:08Come on, you old silly.
00:40:16Now, give us plenty of room.
00:40:27Oh, I've done that for years.
00:40:29Yeah, I thought you'd enjoy that.
00:40:33Oh, suffering cat.
00:40:34Now, who's that at the door?
00:40:36Margaret.
00:40:37I'm on my way.
00:40:46Hello.
00:40:47Good evening.
00:40:48Good evening.
00:40:49It's a pleasure to meet you, Margaret.
00:40:51It's a pleasure to meet you, too.
00:40:54Good evening.
00:40:55Good evening.
00:40:56Is Miss Anne Twigg at home?
00:40:58Yes.
00:40:59Are you a friend of Anne's?
00:41:01Well, I wonder if I could see her, please.
00:41:03It's rather important.
00:41:05She's upstairs. I'll call her.
00:41:07Sorry.
00:41:08Won't you come in?
00:41:09Oh, thank you.
00:41:10This way.
00:41:17Anne!
00:41:18There's a ref over there to see you.
00:41:20He's in the parlor.
00:41:22Thanks, Margaret.
00:41:23Coming.
00:41:26Did you say an officer?
00:41:28Yes, sir.
00:41:29An officer in the RAF.
00:41:31I'd better deal with this right away.
00:41:33You'll do nothing of the sort, Sam.
00:41:34Let Anne see him first.
00:41:43Yes, in the RAF.
00:41:44And he's got one of these.
00:41:46That's the type.
00:41:47I know him.
00:41:48Sounds like Victor.
00:41:49I'll give him a Victor.
00:41:50Why didn't you ask his name, you little silly?
00:41:52I didn't think.
00:41:54He just said,
00:41:55Is Miss Anne Twigg at home?
00:41:57But I did ask him in.
00:41:59Well, the child's growing up.
00:42:01Well, what are we going to do about it, Mother?
00:42:02We'll wait till Anne comes.
00:42:04She's bound to introduce us.
00:42:05I'll introduce him to the toe of my boot.
00:42:07Samuel Twigg, if you use any violence in this house,
00:42:10I'll lock you in the...
00:42:11Wouldn't mind that either.
00:42:12Might get a bit of peace in there.
00:42:13Margaret, come back.
00:42:15Sam, when you see him,
00:42:18you must be polite, but firm.
00:42:20And remember,
00:42:21the first one to lose his temper loses the battle.
00:42:26What's that?
00:42:32Sounds like Anne crying.
00:42:34This is it.
00:42:36I'm going to see what's up.
00:42:37I'm coming with you.
00:42:38You stay where you are.
00:42:49What's up, Anne?
00:42:50Oh, my lovey.
00:42:52Darling, what is it?
00:42:55What's the matter?
00:42:57Tell Mother.
00:43:06Hi, darling.
00:43:08I'm scribbling this note in the mess.
00:43:12I've just come from the briefing room.
00:43:15I have a crazy idea that I won't come back.
00:43:19Remember, we used to talk about premonitions.
00:43:23I'm going to give this letter to my greatest friend,
00:43:28Flight Lieutenant Kimberley.
00:43:31He has sworn that if anything happens,
00:43:35he'll deliver it.
00:43:39I love you more than my life.
00:43:43I shall always love you, darling heart.
00:43:47Victor.
00:43:48Oh, lovey.
00:43:50Oh, my darling, come to your room now.
00:43:53No, thank you, Mother.
00:43:55I'd rather stay here in the dark.
00:44:13I love you.
00:44:14I love you.

00:46:38Oh, come here. Dad, hurry up!
00:46:56Now, they're getting nearer.
00:46:58Where's me boots? Where's me flaming boots?
00:47:03Mother!
00:47:05Mother!
00:47:06Whoa! Where's the other boots?
00:47:09And, love, you take my bunk.
00:47:11No, thank you, Mum. I'd rather sit up.
00:47:13Can I have it, Mother?
00:47:15You selfish little cat.
00:47:16Cat yourself.
00:47:21Oh, Mother!
00:47:22Oh, my head.
00:47:24What a night.
00:47:26Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh.
00:47:29If that's Joe Higgins, I'll...
00:47:31There's a chink showing through your blackout.
00:47:33A chink.
00:47:35After all that, somebody text me for a Chinese tumbler.
00:47:38Put that light out.
00:47:39OK, OK.
00:47:41OK.
00:48:02What's happened to Dad, Mum?
00:48:09No sign of him.
00:48:10Shall we go back to the house and see if he's all right, Mum?
00:48:13Come back, Bob.
00:48:15He'll be all right.
00:48:17I expect he's putting his collar and tie on.
00:48:19Just like Dad.
00:48:21Oh, blood!
00:48:28Oh, who the hell put that bucket there?
00:48:32Oh, dear.
00:48:36All right, they're all awake.
00:48:40Oh, dear.
00:48:47Oh!
00:48:49Ow!
00:49:03Oh, there you are.
00:49:04What have you been doing?
00:49:06I've been photographing.
00:49:07What do you think I've been doing?
00:49:09I'll make you scream in a minute. Where's Anne?
00:49:11Here I am, Dad.
00:49:12Look at your trousers.
00:49:13They're inside out.
00:49:14They're upside down.
00:49:15Go back and change them, love.
00:49:17I wouldn't go back to that house for all the tea the Higgins have borrowed.
00:49:19I haven't got to be dressed up me Sunday best to get bombed, you know.
00:49:22Well, I'm going to lie down and you better too.
00:49:27That's the new one.
00:49:29All right, start it.
00:49:33Can we borrow your sofa?
00:49:35Yes, if you bring it back next week.
00:49:36I'm tired of the sofa.
00:49:37Well, come in quick.
00:49:39Oh, dear.
00:49:40What's the matter with your shelter?
00:49:42It's got an hole in the roof. A bomb might trickle through.
00:49:44That'll give you a nasty headache if he brought any food with you.
00:49:47No, just that, that's enough.
00:49:48Oh, well, if you get hungry, you can have a chew at them.
00:49:50Did you bring your fags, son?
00:49:52No, I didn't, and the matches neither.
00:49:54What?
00:49:55Oh.
00:49:56Oh, those are ours.
00:49:57Oh, I thought you weren't using them.
00:49:59Not a bad little shelter.
00:50:01Oh, make yourselves at home, as usual.
00:50:04Is that my helmet, mother?
00:50:06Yes, love.
00:50:08Here you are.
00:50:11That's enough, Joe.
00:50:13It's rum what the sailors drink.
00:50:15Joe, a sailor?
00:50:17Nearest he's been to the seas, the Massey Tunnel.
00:50:20Yeah, then he was nearly seasick.
00:50:22Here you are, dad.
00:50:23Hot milk.
00:50:24Oh, thank you, love.
00:50:25Have you got enough for the rest of the family, love?
00:50:27Yes, thanks, mum. We're going to have tea.
00:50:28Here you are.
00:50:29Thanks, mother.
00:50:30Thanks.

00:50:43Fire!
00:50:58There's no place like home
00:51:02Where you and I
00:51:07There's no place like home
00:51:12There's no...
00:51:22This is mine.
00:51:23You could have borrowed one for the missus.
00:51:25What a nerve.
00:51:26Mother, I've just remembered I bought this tin of cocoa.
00:51:28I thought you might fancy some.
00:51:30I love a drop of cocoa.
00:51:31So do I.
00:51:32Me too, especially when I'm thirsty.
00:51:34There's a nice puddle outside.
00:51:36It's a big puddle.
00:51:44Oh, go easy, son.
00:51:45That's all right. The stronger the better.
00:51:47Now you're going to enjoy this, mother.
00:51:49You have it, love. I can wait a bit.
00:51:51Just as you say.
00:51:52Might as well make ourselves a dome in spite of the company.
00:51:55Oh, dear.
00:51:56Now I've left me pipe and me paper indoors.
00:51:59Here they are, son.
00:52:00I thought you'd be wanting them.
00:52:02What a woman, eh?
00:52:04Well, it looks as though I'm going to have a nice quiet read after all.
00:52:07Where's me cocoa?
00:52:09Well, this is just what I needed.
00:52:11Well, good luck and good health, everybody.
00:52:14Oh!
00:52:16What is it, Joe?
00:52:18Oh, this is the tin I use for me curry powder.
00:52:22Come on, fire!
00:52:23He's on fire, Bob.
00:52:24Give me a hand with the stovepipe.
00:52:25Oh, let me, Bob.

00:56:03Oh!
00:56:04Oh!
00:56:05It's a pity she doesn't get some ideas about real cleaning.
00:56:09Now, isn't that nice for a change?
00:56:12Never mind, love. I'll go.
00:56:19Here we go again. Another quiet day.
00:56:22Oh, it's you.
00:56:24Yes, it's us. Can we come in?
00:56:26Just a perfluous question.
00:56:32The rear again.
00:56:35Well, what is it this time?
00:56:37Oh, you brought our tea back.
00:56:39No, we couldn't manage that.
00:56:41But could we borrow your house?
00:56:43Yeah, it might be better that way.
00:56:45Well, we could manage with one room, you know.
00:56:48Oh, don't stinch yourself. Have the broom in luck.
00:56:51We've been burnt out in centuries.
00:56:54What? Do you mean the whole place?
00:56:57Yes, when we got back, there it was. Gone.
00:57:01You mean there it wasn't.
00:57:02So we came straight here.
00:57:04I bet you could do that blindfolded.
00:57:06Well, what are we going to do with them, mother?
00:57:08Let's make them a bed up in the parlour.
00:57:10What, for us, and let them have ours?
00:57:12No, we couldn't let you do that. At least not every night.
00:57:15Well, what did you lose, Jo?
00:57:17Well, we don't know yet. They wouldn't let us in.
00:57:19It was worth.
00:57:20So we was wondering...
00:57:21Well, have you brought your rations?
00:57:22I keep them in my bag.
00:57:24Have you got any tea coupons? We're a bit short for next week.
00:57:26You'll have to make do with cocoa.
00:57:28Aye, it's times like these that we know our true friends.
00:57:32Tell him me.
00:57:48Any news?
00:57:50No. Line's still out of order.
00:57:53Oh, Andrew.
00:57:54I know, my dear. I know.
00:57:56Perhaps I'd better go and see his commanding officer.
00:57:58Oh, no. I don't think so.
00:58:00We'll just have to wait.
00:58:02I thought you'd have something to eat. You had nothing, not even breakfast.
00:58:05Neither had you.
00:58:07Yes, sir?
00:58:08A young lady's called, my lady.
00:58:10She requests me to give you this note.
00:58:12Well, didn't she give her name?
00:58:13Yes, sir, Andrew. Miss Anne Twigg.
00:58:15Anne Twigg.
00:58:16I'm not at home.
00:58:17Very well, my lady.
00:58:18Just a moment, just a moment.
00:58:19Hadn't you better read it, dear? It may have news.
00:58:21Oh, yes. Perhaps I guess.
00:58:23Ask her to wait, sir.
00:58:24Very well, my lady.
00:58:27Well?
00:58:28May I see you, please?
00:58:30It is about Victor. Anne Twigg.
00:58:32What shall we do, Andrew?
00:58:34Better see her.
00:58:35All right.
00:58:42Will you please come in?
00:58:49You've probably realized I'm Victor's father.
00:58:53This is my wife.
00:58:55How do you do?
00:58:57You called about my son.
00:58:59Yes.
00:59:00Have you any news?
00:59:02No, sir, Andrew.
00:59:03Then why have you come here?
00:59:05We both love him.
00:59:07Well, won't you sit down?
00:59:10You know why I called at your home?
00:59:12Yes, Lady Stevens.
00:59:14And yet you come here.
00:59:16Yes.
00:59:17Why, my dear?
00:59:18I thought perhaps I might be able to help.
00:59:21How?
00:59:22Just by talking about him.
00:59:24Well, I think I'll leave you two alone.
00:59:27Excuse me.
00:59:28Yes, dear.
00:59:30Anne.
00:59:31Yes, dear?
00:59:32I think I'll leave you two alone.
00:59:35Excuse me.
00:59:36Yes, dear.
00:59:38Anne.
00:59:40I owe you an apology.
00:59:42I do understand.
00:59:44And may I say how very, very sorry I am for you and your husband.
01:00:08When you get home, Anne, will you give that to your mother and father?
01:00:26Watch her, Charlie.
01:00:27Lady Stevens, in the drawing room, sir.
01:00:29Where, sir?
01:00:30Oh.
01:00:31I say, I've got the most terrific news.
01:00:33I'm frighteningly sorry it all went...
01:00:35Hello.
01:00:36Victor?
01:00:37Yeah, the old Stevie.
01:00:38Bang on.
01:00:39Just like that.
01:00:40Where is he?
01:00:41In hospital.
01:00:42Oh, badly wounded?
01:00:43Oh, no, no, no.
01:00:44Just making a...
01:00:45Making a nuisance of himself.
01:00:46He smashed his leg up a bit, it seems, but I've seen a lot worse in Rugger.
01:00:49What happened?
01:00:50Well, he crash-landed miles from anywhere.
01:00:51He's been living on locusts and wild honey.
01:00:53Oh, go and tell Andrew.
01:00:54He's in the garden.
01:00:55Yes, I will.
01:00:56Sir Andrew!
01:00:57How did you hear?
01:00:58I...
01:00:59I got it from the station.
01:01:00I say, did you know your phone had gone for a burst?
01:01:02Yes.
01:01:03That's a bit of nonsense, I suppose.
01:01:04Isn't it terrific?
01:01:05Oh, it's wonderful.
01:01:06Victor?
01:01:07Where is he?
01:01:08He's in hospital, but he's not seriously hurt.
01:01:10Oh, thank goodness.
01:01:11Do you mind if I go home to tell Mum and Dad?
01:01:13No, you run along, Anne.
01:01:14Oh, thank you, Lady Stephen.
01:01:15I'll ride you back in the old heap if you like.
01:01:17It'll save time.
01:01:18Oh, thank you.
01:01:19Off you go, gone.
01:01:20Goodbye.
01:01:21Goodbye.
01:01:22Excuse me, my lady, because we should know...
01:01:23Later, Charlie boy, later.
01:01:27Do you know, Andrew?
01:01:28It's the first time I knew that Simpson's other name was Charlie.
01:01:36Goodbye.
01:01:55Could I have another bit of bread and butter, please?
01:02:00And jam?
01:02:01Not now.
01:02:03Anne!
01:02:04Darling, it's safe.
01:02:05Oh.
01:02:06It's safe.
01:02:07Where is he?
01:02:08In hospital, but it's nothing serious.
01:02:09Oh, sorry, Mum.
01:02:10This is Flight Lieutenant Kimberley, a friend of Victor's.
01:02:13My mother.
01:02:14How do you do, Mrs. Twigg?
01:02:15Pleased to meet you.
01:02:17How do you do, Mr. Twigg?
01:02:18Not me, it's him.
01:02:20Oh, well, how do you do?
01:02:21Anne?
01:02:22Yes, Dad?
01:02:23How did you get this news?
01:02:24Well, actually, I brought it.
01:02:26Jolly old winged messenger.
01:02:29Anne, have you been to Lady Stephen's place?
01:02:31Yes, Dad.
01:02:32You're a bit of a turncoat, aren't you?
01:02:34Sam?
01:02:35Will you be quiet?
01:02:36Oh, dear.
01:02:37Shut up, Emma.
01:02:38I don't know what's come over you, Sam.
01:02:40So you're a friend, eh?
01:02:41Oh, rather.
01:02:42Victor and I are just like that.
01:02:44Bang on.
01:02:45And you're also a friend of his family?
01:02:47Oh, rather.
01:02:48Absolutely.
01:02:49Actually, definitely.
01:02:50Fine people.
01:02:51Wonderful background.
01:02:52Hunting, shooting, fishing, all that stuff.
01:02:54Victor and I were at...
01:02:55Get out.
01:02:57I beg your pardon?
01:02:58You heard.
01:02:59Get out.
01:03:00What, now?
01:03:01What?
01:03:02You can't...
01:03:03I'll attend to you later, my girl.
01:03:04Farming.
01:03:05Hunting, shooting and fishing.
01:03:06Ruddy capitalists.
01:03:07Now, don't you start that.
01:03:08That's enough.
01:03:09Well, of all that stuff.
01:03:10They're both farming.
01:03:11Shut up.
01:03:12I'm boss here.
01:03:13Are you Samuel Twigg?
01:03:15Well...
01:03:16I'm sorry, sir.
01:03:17Oh, that's all right, Mrs. Twigg.
01:03:19I quite understand.
01:03:21Well, I swear I'd better rev up and take off.
01:03:25Well, contacts.
01:03:26Chalk's away.
01:03:28Cheer up, now, girl.
01:03:29Well, whacko, everybody.
01:03:30Just a minute, please.
01:03:33Dad, will you read that?
01:03:42Well, son, read it out loud.
01:03:45Dear Mr. and Mrs. Twigg,
01:03:47I offer you my sincere apologies for last night.
01:03:50Will you please accept them?
01:03:53Diana Stevens.
01:03:55Wizzo!
01:03:56Wizzo!
01:03:58Well, the hell does that mean?
01:03:59Well, it's sort of a very joyful kind of wizzo, isn't it?
01:04:02Sounds like a new cleaning powder.
01:04:04Very powder.
01:04:06Well, Sam?
01:04:07Well, I'm sorry, mother.
01:04:09Sorry, Anne.
01:04:10Sorry, everybody.
01:04:11Wizzo!
01:04:12Congratulations.
01:04:13Well, have you got any beer?
01:04:14Of course we have, Sam.
01:04:15Come on, love.
01:04:16Help me get some glasses.
01:04:17If it hadn't been for that insanity bomb,
01:04:19I'd have gone home and got half a bottle of port.
01:04:21Wonderful stuff, Sam.
01:04:22Matured in the woods.
01:04:23Matured in your own home, more like.
01:04:25Sorry we haven't got any whiskey.
01:04:26That's all, sir.
01:04:27Beer's my hobby, actually.
01:04:28Here we are, Sam.
01:04:33Wizzo!
01:04:34Wizzo!
01:04:41Mum!
01:04:42Mum, what'll I do?
01:04:43Stand over there.
01:04:46What for?
01:04:47Come here.
01:04:48Bend me a hanky.
01:04:52Now, go up to your room and wash your face.
01:04:54Going to Lady Stevens looking like a Jezebel.
01:04:56It looked very nice.
01:04:57You and your old-fashioned ideas.
01:04:58I won't get along with you.
01:04:59I'll give you an old-fashioned spanking
01:05:00in an old-fashioned place.
01:05:01Is Anne ready?
01:05:02Oh, yes.
01:05:03There'll be nothing wrong with her.
01:05:04Get to move on.
01:05:05Mum!
01:05:06Mum!
01:05:07Mum, where are my clean hands?
01:05:08Oh, up in your room, love.
01:05:09I don't want to blow her.
01:05:10I want to shower.
01:05:11Well, on the island board.
01:05:12See you.
01:05:13Mum!
01:05:14Oh, dear.
01:05:15Coming, all right.
01:05:17Oh, Mary, could I bother you?
01:05:19No, I'm wearing them.
01:05:21Getting yourself dressed up like a dunce dinner.
01:05:24Mum, what are you laughing at?
01:05:26What are you laughing at, you stupid-looking...
01:05:28Sam, keep calm.
01:05:30Keep calm.
01:05:31I like that.
01:05:33Somebody start this colouring concrete.
01:05:36All right, all right.
01:05:37Let me handle it.
01:05:38All right.
01:05:39Mind me, Adam.
01:05:40Oh.
01:05:42Tell them, Blady.
01:05:43Well, that'll be the car.
01:05:44Oh, to hell with the car.
01:05:47All right, I'll do it.
01:05:48I'll do it myself.
01:05:52Put somebody onto that door.
01:05:54All right, I'll do.
01:05:57Well?
01:05:58Messing.
01:05:59Do you think Victor will like it?
01:06:01Oh, he's bound to.
01:06:02Hope you'll have a friend with him.
01:06:04Well, there's always Kimberley.
01:06:05Oh, thanks very much.
01:06:06Oh, I've forgotten my gloves.
01:06:14What do we have here, old fly?
01:06:16Everybody clued up, huh?
01:06:17Clued up as they'll ever be.
01:06:18Oh, good.
01:06:19Well, the rose is on its way.
01:06:20What about you coming with me in the heath?
01:06:22Oh, I'd love to.
01:06:23Oh, good, sure.
01:06:24I'm going on with Claude.
01:06:26Your car's just coming.
01:06:27All right.
01:06:28We're nearly ready.
01:06:56Now, don't be handy to it.
01:07:16Oh, I'd forgotten the time.
01:07:26Oh, good.
01:07:27Oh, good.
01:07:28Oh, good.

01:08:25Where is he?
01:08:26This way.
01:08:34Victor!
01:08:35Happy days.
01:08:37Thank you very much, Harold.
01:08:43Mr. And Mrs. Sandu Tweek, Miss Margaret Tweek, Master Robert Tweek.
01:08:49Won't you say a bundle of treats?
01:08:50It's much easier.
01:08:51Now wait for it.
01:08:52And don't forget, when you're introduced, to say your grace.
01:08:56Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Twigg, how good of you to come.
01:08:59This is my husband.
01:09:00How do you do?
01:09:01Margaret, Bob.
01:09:02Mrs. Twigg.
01:09:03Oh, we're about to receive...
01:09:05My old man...
01:09:06Oh, my husband, Sam.
01:09:08How are you, Sam?
01:09:09All right, sir.
01:09:10Mashing cancel as you got here.
01:09:12You have a nice quiet read, eh?
01:09:13I have to lock myself up in the library.
01:09:15You know, Sam, I can't help feeling we've met before.
01:09:18Oh, we have, Sir Andrews.
01:09:19Every morning before breakfast.
01:09:22Mr. and Mrs. Higgins.
01:09:28They've got some nice stuff here.
01:09:30Oh, shut up.
01:09:34Oh, this is Joe Higgins and his missus.
01:09:36They got bombed out.
01:09:37WVS lent them this clobber, these clothes.
01:09:39Oh, bad luck.
01:09:40How do you do, Mr. and Mrs. Higgins?
01:09:42This is my husband.
01:09:43How are you, Joe?
01:09:44Well, I'm a bit uncomfortable, you know, but I'm bearing up.
01:09:47Hey, it's a nice little place you've got here.
01:09:49I'd like to stay up and have one of these.
01:09:51Yeah, go off the old capitalist.
01:09:53Mrs. Higgins.
01:09:58Do you mind if I have that, sir?
01:10:00Go on, help yourself, Joe.
01:10:01Thanks very much.
01:10:02Andy will.
01:10:03What about you, Sam?
01:10:04No, I'll have one later on, sir.
01:10:06Um, well, what do you think of our end?
01:10:08I bet you've got a lovely kitchen here, Lady Stephens.
01:10:11How do you do for rationing?
01:10:12Oh, we manage, you know.
01:10:14Our butcher's going to keep us a sheep's head for Saturday.
01:10:17And he's going to leave the eyes in.
01:10:19Really?
01:10:20Why?
01:10:21To see us through the week.
01:10:23Emma.
01:10:25It's lovely about your son, Lady Stephens.
01:10:27Oh, thank you, Mrs. Twigg.
01:10:28And I'm so happy about Anne.
01:10:31Could I have a whisky and soda, please?
01:10:33Oh, you won't have coffee if dead.
01:10:35Oh, shut up.
01:10:37You, uh, you done much flying, sir?
01:10:39Oh, spot here and there, you know.
01:10:40Having a wizard time until some clock got in my way.
01:10:43I woke up in hospital ship with six nurses.
01:10:46Spot on, old boy.
01:10:47Of course, there were 700 men on board.
01:10:49Never have I seen so many chase so few for so long for so little.
01:10:57I say, this looks a bit of a treat, doesn't it?
01:10:59Yeah, it is a treat.
01:11:00What are you going to have?
01:11:01I'm going to have a whisky if I might.
01:11:02Yeah, a whisky it is.
01:11:04I say, you're looking very handsome this afternoon.
01:11:06What, this?
01:11:07Oh, I got this from the WVS when we were bombed out the night of the big deal.
01:11:11Oh, a gent's nappy for the fuller figure, eh?
01:11:14I'm sorry we couldn't keep him off for you.
01:11:16Why, were you up?
01:11:17Aye, we were up. Night fighters.
01:11:20Must have been quite a show.
01:11:21Oh, nothing really, no.
01:11:22We pranged a jerry or two into the drink just about dawn.
01:11:25Bent our tail a bit in the process.
01:11:27Then we stooged around waiting for a replay, but nothing happened.
01:11:30So we popped home in time for breakfast.
01:11:31Nothing to it, really.
01:11:33Haven't you got a funny way of saying things are flaming awful?
01:11:39Ah!
01:11:40Ah, Victor.
01:11:41Hello, Claude.
01:11:42Save me one.
01:11:45I want you all to meet our son, Victor.
01:11:47Oh, pleased to meet you. Our man's governor.
01:11:49Did you say governor?
01:11:50Well, the man who's speaking.
01:12:15Oh, no.
01:12:18Oh, that's better.
01:12:20Here it says again.
01:12:22Annihilation of a southbound enemy convoy between Sicily and Tripoli on Tuesday night.
01:12:29Is he right, sir?
01:12:30Ha ha ha!
01:12:31Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:12:33Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:12:35Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:12:37Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:12:39Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:12:41Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
