0:00:02 > 0:00:07# Who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler
0:00:07 > 0:00:11# If you think we're on the run?
0:00:12 > 0:00:17# We are the boys who will stop your little game
0:00:17 > 0:00:22# We are the boys who will make you think again.
0:00:22 > 0:00:27# Cos who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler
0:00:27 > 0:00:31# If you think old England's done?
0:00:31 > 0:00:36# Mr Brown goes off to town on the 8:21
0:00:36 > 0:00:41# But he comes home each evening, And he's ready with his gun
0:00:41 > 0:00:46# So who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler
0:00:46 > 0:00:50# If you think old England's done? #
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Morning, Mr Mainwaring.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Morning, Pike.
0:01:02 > 0:01:07- Any letters?- Two, both marked "Delayed By Enemy Action".
0:01:07 > 0:01:14Do you realise that we haven't had any letters from head office for over two weeks?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Goodness knows how many documents have been lost!
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- Shall I set up the Lewis Gun? - No, that's Wilson's job.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25- Where IS he? It's 9:15.- He's not usually late.- I wonder what's wrong.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Perhaps he's been captured.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29What?!
0:01:29 > 0:01:33A Nazi paratrooper may have landed in the night and captured him going to work.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Don't be ridiculous!
0:01:36 > 0:01:37I'd better do it myself.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43- TELEPHONE RINGS - See who that is.- Yes, sir.
0:01:44 > 0:01:50Hello, Swallow Bank. No, I'm not the manager. Hang on, please.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53It's for you, Mr Mainwaring. Long distance. It's head office.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Oh, all right.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57You see to the gun.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Hello, sir.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05It's West from head office.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Oh, yes... Stop fiddling with that gun!
0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Mainwaring, are you there? - Yes, yes.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17I'm ringing because some of our letters may have been destroyed.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18Yes...
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Put that gun down! Put it down, I say!
0:02:22 > 0:02:24What's happening?
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- Nothing. Why? - I thought the bank was being robbed.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30No, everything's under complete control here.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34I won't waste time - this call is expensive.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37I can't send anyone to replace Wilson for several weeks,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40so you'll have to manage the best you can.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41What?
0:02:41 > 0:02:46I said I shan't be able to replace Wilson for several weeks.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48Why? Where is he going?
0:02:48 > 0:02:54You know as well as I do that he's taking over as manager of our Eastgate branch.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58'He applied for the job ages ago. Didn't he tell you?'
0:02:58 > 0:02:59He's WHAT?!
0:02:59 > 0:03:02I wrote to you about it last month.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04I never got the letter.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07It must have been destroyed in an air-raid.
0:03:07 > 0:03:13You'll just have to cope. There's a war on. Keep in touch. Goodbye.
0:03:17 > 0:03:22- Are you all right?- Wilson's been made the manager of the Eastgate branch!
0:03:22 > 0:03:25Oh, I know that! Mum's ever so pleased.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31TELEPHONE RINGS
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Hello, Mainwaring here.
0:03:33 > 0:03:38- Pritchett here, adjutant, HQ. - Good morning, sir.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41I wanted to tell you Sergeant Wilson's commission has come through.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Commission?!
0:03:43 > 0:03:48Captain Square wants him with the Eastgate platoon as soon as possible.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50The Eastgate platoon?!
0:03:50 > 0:03:52I expect you'll miss him.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Who will you promote in his place? - Well, I...
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Let me know as soon as you can.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02I must say, Sergeant Wilson deserves his promotion. He's a good chap.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06'Congratulate him for me, will you? Cheerio!'
0:04:09 > 0:04:12TELEPHONE RINGS
0:04:12 > 0:04:14YES? Mainwaring here.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Good morning, Vicar here.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18What are YOU going to tell me about Wilson?!
0:04:18 > 0:04:23That he's been made Archbishop of Canterbury?!
0:04:23 > 0:04:24Really, Mr Mainwaring!
0:04:24 > 0:04:28I'm sorry, Vicar. I'm not myself this morning.
0:04:28 > 0:04:33Oh dear, aren't you? I'm afraid I have rather a confession to make.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38I don't mean THAT sort of confession. That's mostly for the RC.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40(Idiot!)
0:04:40 > 0:04:45The whist-drive that is supposed to take place in the church hall
0:04:45 > 0:04:47on Tuesday next is, er, tonight.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Really?
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Would you mind cancelling your parade, otherwise I'll look a fool?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55All right, Vicar.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Oh, how sweet of you!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Thank you very much. Goodbye.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Pike!
0:05:08 > 0:05:11You DO look red. Shall I open the other window?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14I've just had a bit of a shock, that's all.
0:05:14 > 0:05:19- In fact, several shocks.- I've never seen you look like this before.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24- Go and tell the platoon that tonight's parade is off.- Yes, sir.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- Then get these orders typed up and duplicated and take a copy to each member of the platoon.- Yes, sir...
0:05:28 > 0:05:33- Get on with your work. - WILSON OUTSIDE:- Lovely morning!
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- Morning, Frank. - Morning Uncle Arth...Mr Wilson.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Morning, sir.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42What time do you call THIS?
0:05:42 > 0:05:46Actually it's, er...20 to 10.
0:05:46 > 0:05:51- Where have you been?- I've been doing some shopping. I bought this.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55Do you like it? It's for officers only, of course.
0:05:57 > 0:06:02I bought these. I'm not sure whether I like the cloth or the brass ones.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05But I understand you shouldn't wear brass with battle dress.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Judas!
0:06:09 > 0:06:12I beg your pardon?
0:06:12 > 0:06:17- JUDAS!- I'm awfully sorry but I don't quite follow you.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21Yes, you do! You're waiting to step into my shoes!
0:06:21 > 0:06:26- No, I'm not.- You didn't tell me about the Eastgate job.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29- I thought you knew. Head office must have written to you. - The letters got destroyed.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33- That's not my fault. - And this commission?
0:06:33 > 0:06:38Captain Square probably overstepped the mark but he's keen to have me.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42He said he was most impressed with what I've done with the platoon.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46With what YOU'VE done with the platoon?!
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Yes. He's had his eye on me for some time now, you know.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Just because you went to some tuppenny ha'penny public school!
0:06:52 > 0:06:55I wouldn't call Meadow Bridge THAT.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Meadow Bridge(!) You know where I went, don't you? Eastbourne Grammar!
0:06:59 > 0:07:01What's wrong with THAT?
0:07:01 > 0:07:06I had to fight to get there and fight even harder to stay.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08It's all to your credit.
0:07:08 > 0:07:13You never fought for anything in your life - father in the City.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16You let everything come to you.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19It wasn't as simple as all that.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22I've been the manager of this branch for over ten years now.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24I ought to have gone on to better things years ago!
0:07:24 > 0:07:28But at interviews, they ask the same thing - "What school did you go to?"
0:07:28 > 0:07:30And as soon as I tell them, that was that!
0:07:30 > 0:07:32I'm sure that didn't influence them.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35I'm sure it wouldn't influence YOU(!)
0:07:35 > 0:07:41If they ask you, you say, "I was at Meadow Bridge - small but rather good."
0:07:41 > 0:07:44There were over 300 boys there.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46I've made a success of this branch
0:07:46 > 0:07:51AND I've taken a lot of shopkeepers and made them into a crack platoon!
0:07:51 > 0:07:53- I helped a bit.- Did you?!
0:07:53 > 0:07:57I'll show you how I value YOUR help as a sergeant AND a chief clerk!
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Get me 2-5-2, will you?
0:08:02 > 0:08:09When I sat at this desk this morning and saw the web of intrigue that was unfolding before my eyes,
0:08:09 > 0:08:12I couldn't believe it! I've never...
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Hello, Jones? Get round to the bank immediately.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20Pike!
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Until you're relieved by head office, you will be chief clerk.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- Pardon?- You are now chief clerk.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Do you think I've got the brains for it?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41I'm sure if Wilson has, YOU have!
0:08:41 > 0:08:46- I don't talk posh like Mr Wilson. - Never judge a book by its cover.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50- KNOCK ON DOOR - Come in!
0:08:50 > 0:08:56Mr Mainwaring, Mr Wilson, Pikey... I can't stay, the offal's arrived.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00There's a long queue and Raymond is looking after the shop.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04- This won't take a minute. Go away, Pike.- Yes, sir.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08Now, listen carefully to what I'm going to say.
0:09:08 > 0:09:13Corporal Jones, I hereby promote you to sergeant.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15What do you think of that?!
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Do you think that's wise, sir?
0:09:17 > 0:09:19That's the last time you look down your nose at me
0:09:19 > 0:09:23and say in that supercilious voice, "Do you think that's wise, sir?"
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Well? What do you think of that, Jones? Jones?
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Oh, Mr Mainwaring, I don't know what to say.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35This is extraordinary - promoted as sergeant!
0:09:35 > 0:09:38I never believed it would come true.
0:09:38 > 0:09:45After all these years, I can stand in front of those brave boys with three stripes on every arm.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Not just one, not two, but... but three.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55You see the sort of man I'm promoting - brave, true and loyal!
0:09:55 > 0:09:58JONES' NOSE TRUMPETS
0:10:00 > 0:10:04There's just one thing. We can't have TWO sergeants.
0:10:04 > 0:10:09Mr Wilson is leaving us. He's going to higher things(!)
0:10:09 > 0:10:13He's been promoted - to second lieutenant...
0:10:13 > 0:10:15in Eastgate platoon.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Oh, dear. I...
0:10:18 > 0:10:19That's marvellous.
0:10:19 > 0:10:25I'll miss you, Mr Wilson. Nobody deserves promotion more than you.
0:10:25 > 0:10:32I shall try to live up to the high ideals and the standards of loyalty you put up us.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34INAUDIBLE
0:10:34 > 0:10:40- Thank you, Jonesy.- Could you put the promotion down officially?
0:10:40 > 0:10:45Write it down so I'll have something solid to show to people.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- Yes, certainly.- Thank you.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Er... This is to confirm...
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- ..that you have been promoted... - Have been promoted...
0:10:55 > 0:11:02- ..to the rank of sergeant in the Walmington-On-Sea Home Guard. - ..Home Guard.
0:11:02 > 0:11:10- I'll have this typed out and then put the name on.- Thank you, sir. I'll get back to the shop.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- I'll show you out.- No need to do that, thank you very much.
0:11:14 > 0:11:19- I'll get back to the shop now. - You do that.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- I'm going back now. - You go back to the shop...
0:11:29 > 0:11:34Can you come at once? Miss King's got a query of a customer.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36All right.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40- Pike.- Yes, sir?
0:11:42 > 0:11:47Type those orders out and give a copy to everyone in the platoon,
0:11:47 > 0:11:51- and tell them tonight's parade is off.- Yes, sir.
0:11:56 > 0:12:02"This is to confirm that you've been promoted to the rank of sergeant..."
0:12:04 > 0:12:09Why has he promoted everybody else to sergeant and not me?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Ah well, at least I AM chief clerk.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24I wish Mr Mainwaring wouldn't use my drawers!
0:12:24 > 0:12:27KNOCK ON DOOR Come in!
0:12:27 > 0:12:32Is Mr Mainwaring in? He hasn't arrived yet.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Mrs Pike, whatever is the matter?
0:12:35 > 0:12:39Nothing, but I did want to see Mr Mainwaring.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41What is this all about?
0:12:41 > 0:12:46It's Arthur, he's deceived me. I beg your pardon?
0:12:46 > 0:12:50He's been made manager of the bank in Eastgate.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53I thought he'd commute by train.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56He's joined the Eastgate platoon as an officer,
0:12:56 > 0:13:01and he's going to live there, and I shall never see him again!
0:13:01 > 0:13:06Of course you will - Eastgate is only ten miles away.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09It might as well be 100 miles away!
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Don't worry, Mrs Pike. He'll come back to you and say:
0:13:13 > 0:13:21"I've longed to take you in my arms and tell you how much I've missed you."
0:13:21 > 0:13:25Please, sir. What is it, Verger?
0:13:25 > 0:13:29I, er... Sorry, Vicar! What are you sorry about?
0:13:29 > 0:13:33I, er... What do you want? This is personal.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37I can SEE that. Just state your business!
0:13:37 > 0:13:40I can't move the harmonium alone.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43I only want it moving a few feet.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46I still can't manage it alone.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Get one of the platoon to help you.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Very well, sir.
0:13:56 > 0:14:02I never thought I'd see His Reverence become a victim of wartime immorality!
0:14:02 > 0:14:08Don't worry, Mrs Pike, everything will turn out all right.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Good evening.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Can't you do something about Arthur?
0:14:13 > 0:14:15It's out of my hands now.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20He's changed so much. Ambition has turned his head.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38HE MAKES NO SOUND
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- Sergeant Jones!- Coming, sir.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Pity...
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Y-e-s...!
0:15:32 > 0:15:37Platoon... Platoon...atten-SHUN!
0:15:37 > 0:15:39AS YOU WERE!!
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Very sloppy, very sloppy indeed.
0:15:43 > 0:15:49Now listen to me. There's going to be some changes around here!
0:15:49 > 0:15:54I'M in charge now. You can have it the easy way or the HARD way.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59The easy way is not very easy,
0:15:59 > 0:16:02and the HARD way...
0:16:02 > 0:16:04..is very, very HARD!
0:16:04 > 0:16:07Now, let's have a look at ye.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Ye-ah-sssh!
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Stand up straight, Pike!
0:16:15 > 0:16:18You're as peelie-wally as a rotten banana.
0:16:18 > 0:16:24Ah, Godfrey! Pull your socks up or you'll be out on your ear.
0:16:24 > 0:16:29I'm not carrying any passengers in MY platoon.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Aha, I'm watching you, Walker.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37Just put one foot wrong and I'll have ye!
0:16:37 > 0:16:39You get me?
0:16:39 > 0:16:41A last warning, Jones.
0:16:44 > 0:16:48Unless your drill improves,
0:16:48 > 0:16:51I'll take that stripe away.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55Now, buck up your ideas, all of ye!
0:16:55 > 0:16:59And remember, my name is Sergeant Frazer!
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Frazer spelt B-A-S-T-A-R-D!
0:17:05 > 0:17:11THAT'S not how you spell it. Will you help me with the harmonium?
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Not me! It's got to be shifted.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18I'll tell the others what you've just said.
0:17:18 > 0:17:22All right, where is it? In the bell-tower. Come on.
0:17:22 > 0:17:27Take your jacket off. It's hot work.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Platoon...
0:17:41 > 0:17:42atten-SHUN!
0:17:42 > 0:17:50Right, now that I've been made up to sergeant, I don't want you to worry that I'm too regimental.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57For instance, when I call the roll,
0:17:57 > 0:18:04if someone's not here who's a customer of mine and spends £2 or more a week,
0:18:04 > 0:18:07I'll mark him present.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11On the other hand, if someone's not cleaned his brasses,
0:18:11 > 0:18:16I'll overlook it if they bought the polish from me.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21Excuse me, Mr Walker! Will you help me shift the harmonium?
0:18:21 > 0:18:26Now that I'm a sergeant, I shouldn't do that sort of thing.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29It won't take a minute.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Yeah, all right.
0:18:36 > 0:18:43Better take this jacket off. I might get my new stripes dirty in that bell-tower.
0:18:46 > 0:18:51I can't understand why Captain Mainwaring promoted me to sergeant.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54I'll do my best to carry out the duties.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59I'm sure you will. Excuse me, I must wash my hands.
0:19:04 > 0:19:09Have you seen Mr Godfrey? He's in there.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14I want his first-aid kit. I need to put a bandage on this finger.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23That was a job well done.
0:19:23 > 0:19:29I'M not here to shift furniture, especially now that I'm a...
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Hold on! Hold on!
0:19:32 > 0:19:33Blimey!
0:19:33 > 0:19:40It must be a mistake. You can't have TWO sergeants.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43 There must be some mistake...
0:19:48 > 0:19:54I'll do that, Captain Mainwaring. Right platoon, plat-oo-n...
0:19:56 > 0:19:57Blimey!
0:19:57 > 0:20:00You should speak to Mr Wilson.
0:20:00 > 0:20:06I'm having nothing more to do with it. I wash my hands of the affair.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11I've fallen the private in. What shall I do with the sergeants?
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- KNOCK ON DOOR - Come in.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19Ah...
0:20:20 > 0:20:25Well, I'm just off, sir. I thought I'd get the 9:30 to Eastgate.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Why are you going now? It's only Wednesday.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33You don't start till Monday.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37The manager there has been called up.
0:20:37 > 0:20:42Mr West from head office will stay on in Eastgate to show me the ropes.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Mr West of head office, eh?
0:20:46 > 0:20:51We ARE honoured. Why are you travelling in uniform?
0:20:51 > 0:20:55- Well, it's just sort of...handy. - Rubbish!
0:20:56 > 0:21:02- You want to parade about looking for salutes!- Why not? YOU did!- What?!
0:21:02 > 0:21:08- The day you got your new uniform, I followed you.- You followed me?- Yes.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13You went along the high street waiting for a soldier to salute you.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15In the end, you had to make do with a sea-scout!
0:21:15 > 0:21:19That's enough! Say what you have to say and go.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23Will you come and see me off?
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Certainly not! Our relationship ends now.
0:21:26 > 0:21:31After all we've been through, can't we let bygones be bygones?
0:21:31 > 0:21:35Don't try to soft-soap ME.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Well, goodbye.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Bye, sir.
0:21:58 > 0:22:03At least my salutes are done properly. Your salute was rotten!
0:22:05 > 0:22:09- You've done very well, Wilson. - Thank you, sir.
0:22:09 > 0:22:14- We've thought of promoting you for some years.- Oh, really?
0:22:14 > 0:22:19- If it wasn't for Mainwaring, we would have.- What did he say?
0:22:19 > 0:22:24- He said, in his opinion, you didn't show enough initiative.- Oh, did he?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26You've proved him wrong.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30- I think you'll make an excellent manager.- Thank you.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32I must get back to London.
0:22:32 > 0:22:37- Being Saturday, I expect you're busy with the Home Guard.- Yes.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Here are the keys.- Thank you.
0:22:40 > 0:22:45On Monday morning, YOU will be sitting in that chair.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49At 9am, you will take your place at that desk - as manager!
0:22:49 > 0:22:51How do you feel?
0:22:53 > 0:22:54Well...
0:22:54 > 0:22:56awfully nice.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Good luck, Wilson.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Thank you very much indeed.
0:23:08 > 0:23:09< Morning.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16< Good morning, what a lovely day! I'll see you in a moment.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- KNOCK ON DOOR - Come in.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02- Good morning, sir. - Good morning, Mr Boyle!
0:24:02 > 0:24:05I have some important items for you.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10All in good time. I'd rather like to have a word with the staff first.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- Oh, very well, sir.- Right.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21Mr Wilson would like a word with you. Will you all come in?
0:24:21 > 0:24:27I thought it might be nice to have a chat to get to know each other.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Of course, sir.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32Come along, quick as you can.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35Right. Now, are we all here?
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Now, ladies and gentlemen, before we start work,
0:24:39 > 0:24:45I thought it might be a nice idea to meet you and have a word together.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48I would like you to understand
0:24:48 > 0:24:54that I like to work in a nice, quiet, relaxed kind of atmosphere.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57If you have any worries, don't be upset at all.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Just come along to my office, tap on the door,
0:25:00 > 0:25:04and as long as you see the name "A Wilson, Manager",
0:25:04 > 0:25:09I want it to give you a feeling of security and confidence.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12I shall always be here to see you. All right?
0:25:12 > 0:25:14- But there are one or two... - AIR-RAID SIREN
0:25:14 > 0:25:19There are the sirens, Mr Wilson. We'd better go down to the shelter.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21All right, don't panic!
0:25:21 > 0:25:27It's perfectly all right. We can look at those papers in the shelter.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32Come along, my dear. What a pretty blouse you're wearing! It's lovely.
0:25:35 > 0:25:41- I hope Uncle Arthur's OK.- He'll be OK, the devil looks after his own.
0:25:41 > 0:25:46After all, they haven't had one single bomb on Eastgate yet.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29This is very upsetting, sir.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33- The bank was gutted. - How will you carry on?
0:26:33 > 0:26:37We won't. We'll close the Eastgate branch and take the business over to Hastings.
0:26:37 > 0:26:41Must be the shortest appointment in history.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44How do you mean?
0:26:44 > 0:26:47At nine o'clock he was manager of a bank,
0:26:47 > 0:26:51and at five past, he had no bank to manage.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53How is he taking it?
0:26:53 > 0:26:58You can never tell with Wilson. He doesn't show much emotion.
0:26:58 > 0:27:03Yes. We must all carry on doing our bit, Mainwaring.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Yes, certainly, we must, sir.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Bye.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Hello, Wilson. Come in.
0:27:23 > 0:27:29- I've just had head office on the phone. They're very sorry.- Oh.
0:27:29 > 0:27:34- May I say how sorry I am, too? - Thank you.- It's most unfortunate.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39- Most unfortunate, yes. - Don't sit down, I'm rather busy.
0:27:41 > 0:27:47I've had a word with GHQ. They will allow you to keep your rank.
0:27:47 > 0:27:48Oh, good - good!
0:27:50 > 0:27:53Get them sewn on by tonight.
0:27:53 > 0:27:54That's all.
