# Who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler, | 0:00:03 | 0:00:07 | |
# If you think we're on the run? | 0:00:07 | 0:00:11 | |
# We are the boys who will stop your little game, | 0:00:11 | 0:00:16 | |
# We are the boys who will make you think again. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:22 | |
# Cos who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler, | 0:00:22 | 0:00:27 | |
# If you think old England's done? | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
# Mr Brown goes off to town on the 8.21, | 0:00:31 | 0:00:36 | |
# But he comes home each evening and he's ready with his gun, | 0:00:36 | 0:00:41 | |
# So who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler, | 0:00:41 | 0:00:46 | |

Now, to wage war successfully, every commander in the field should put himself in the enemy's shoes | 0:00:53 | 0:01:00 | |
and see the situation from that point of view. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
And so, I ask myself, if I were in Adolf's shoes, what would he be thinking? | 0:01:04 | 0:01:11 | |
-He'd wonder why you had his shoes on! -Very amusing (!) | 0:01:11 | 0:01:17 | |
He'd probably be thinking, "I wonder what they're up to!" | 0:01:17 | 0:01:22 | |
Quite right. The only way for Hitler to find out is to come and have a look. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:29 | |
That new Air Raid Warden in Gardenia Gardens looks like Herr Hitler! | 0:01:29 | 0:01:35 | |
No, no, Pike. I don't think that Hitler would come personally. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:41 | |
-Why not? Hess did. -He'd send a recce party in a submarine... Hess was entirely different! | 0:01:41 | 0:01:49 | |
-Or send a swift, silent surface craft. -Canoes! -I beg your pardon? | 0:01:52 | 0:01:58 | |
-Canoes! -These are Nazis, not Apache Indians! | 0:01:58 | 0:02:04 | |
I thought Apaches were those rough French dancers. I never liked them much. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:13 | |
They had a couple of them on the bill with Nellie Wallace! | 0:02:13 | 0:02:18 | |
And he treated her with disdain and threw her at the trombone player. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:23 | |
-She had very big thighs and long, black silk stockings... -Big thighs, you say? -Yes and... | 0:02:23 | 0:02:31 | |
-All right! We're wandering from the point. -Let's get back in Hitler's shoes! | 0:02:31 | 0:02:38 | |
The obvious place for a recce to land is in the estuary here. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:43 | |
-We are to set up an observation post in the lighthouse here. -Sir, it's not being used any more. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:51 | |
-Therefore, it is closed and not open. -They used it when yon convoy come through! | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
Quite right, Frazer. They're happy for us to set up a guard post from time to time. | 0:02:55 | 0:03:04 | |
Corporal Jones, your section will rendezvous at the Jolly Roger Ice Cream Parlour on the jetty. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:13 | |
When the tide is low, you will cross the causeway here. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:18 | |
-Once inside the lighthouse, open these sealed orders. -Thank you. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:22 | |
-Just one question, sir. After I open the orders, what shall I do? -Read them very carefully! | 0:03:22 | 0:03:28 | |
-That's all. Dismiss. -Come on, outside. Quick as you can. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:34 | |
I can't go tonight, sir. I'm delivering essential supplies. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:39 | |
-I've heard this before, Walker. -No, this is vital. For the nurses. -Not elastic again, is it? | 0:03:39 | 0:03:47 | |
-No, hairpins. -Oh, really, Walker! -Straight up. Their hair keeps falling into the operations. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:55 | |
-I'll report here when I've finished. -This really won't do, Walker. -I might have your whisky for you. | 0:03:55 | 0:04:04 | |
-Never mind that. Just get back here as soon as you can. -Right. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:09 | |
-Oh, and Bert's fixed the Lewis gun. 15 bob, no questions asked. I'll bring it later. -Right. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:16 | |
-And I'll bring that whisky! -Off you go! | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
Rough diamond, isn't he? | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
-Heart of gold, of course. -Yes. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
# When the lights go on again, All over the world... # | 0:04:29 | 0:04:37 | |
Left, right. Left, right. Mark time! | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
Open door! Forward! | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
Left, right. Left, right. Left, right. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
Left, right. Left, right. Mark time! | 0:04:48 | 0:04:53 | |
Squad...halt! | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
Right turn! Stand at...ease! | 0:04:56 | 0:05:01 | |
Right, I am now going to take out the sealed orders and, having taken them out, I'll unseal them. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:09 | |
Then I will read them to you and you are going to pay attention. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:15 | |
-Could I be excused? -No, you've got to wait. -It's a long way down. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:22 | |
Here we are. "Orders for section on watch from the lighthouse. Commence at 2,000 hours." | 0:05:22 | 0:05:29 | |
Twenty hundred hours. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
Silence! | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
"Commence duty at twenty hundred hours. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
"You will keep a strict look-out for any Fifth Columnists or spies infiltrating up the estuary." | 0:05:37 | 0:05:45 | |
-What'll we do if we see any? -You will tell me. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:49 | |
I will tell Mister Mainwaring and he will tell his commander, and he will tell...somebody else. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:58 | |
-Might I be excused now? -No. "Guards will not be relieved until 0800 hours." | 0:05:59 | 0:06:06 | |
-Right, we'll revise platoon advance to contact... -Ah, I'm glad I caught you. And you. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:16 | |
-We're very busy. -I've had serious reports from my warden. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:22 | |
You've flashed lights from here more than at 17 Pembroke Gardens - and they were enemy aliens! | 0:06:22 | 0:06:30 | |
-I can't accept that. -I'll have you up before the magistrate! | 0:06:30 | 0:06:35 | |
-You have no authority over the military. -Military (?) You can't strut like Lord Muck! | 0:06:35 | 0:06:42 | |
-I'm in charge of this sector and I am warning you...! -Put that finger down and get out of my headquarters. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:49 | |
I'm going, but you've had your last warning. One more flash and a policeman will feel your collar! | 0:06:49 | 0:06:57 | |
-Corporal Jones? -What? -Do you think Mr Godfrey's all right? He's been gone a long time. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:10 | |
-Of course. There's a lot of steps in a lighthouse. -He's been gone nearly 15 minutes already! | 0:07:10 | 0:07:18 | |
-When he's halfway up, he'll have to go down again! -Why don't you see how he's getting on? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:25 | |
Hold on. Did you lock and bar the door to the rock when you came up? | 0:07:28 | 0:07:35 | |
-No. I think I left it open. -Oh, then wild horses wouldn't drag me down there before dawn. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:43 | |
Why not, Mr Frazer? | 0:07:43 | 0:07:47 | |
Sit down, son. I'll tell you. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
It's something that happened to my old school friend, Willy Reagan. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:55 | |
He was keeper of the light on the Fairloch Rock. | 0:07:55 | 0:08:00 | |
A wild, lonely, storm-racked cliff it is, I tell ye. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:06 | |
And many a tall ship has gone to its cold, watery grave, pounding on those granite boulders. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:15 | |
One night, just like this, when the wind was wailing mournfully in the rigging... | 0:08:15 | 0:08:24 | |
-Mr Frazer, lighthouses don't have rigging. -This one did. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:29 | |
Willy started down the stairs to get a new wick for the lamp. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:34 | |
Near the bottom, something made him stop. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:39 | |
Below, in the gloom, he could hear a low, painful moan... | 0:08:39 | 0:08:45 | |
And a slithering. Something was moving in the dark. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:52 | |
Willy started back upstairs. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
Twenty steps up, he stopped and turned. | 0:08:55 | 0:09:00 | |
He could see nothing, but the dark was darker, and the moan was louder | 0:09:00 | 0:09:07 | |
and the slithering was coming nearer and nearer! | 0:09:07 | 0:09:11 | |
Willy scrambled up the stairs, up and up he went, | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
higher and higher, until his lungs were gasping and his heart was thumping! | 0:09:15 | 0:09:24 | |
He daren't stop, because he knew the thing was behind him! | 0:09:24 | 0:09:29 | |
At last he reached the top and flung himself into the lamphouse! | 0:09:29 | 0:09:34 | |
He threw himself against the door! | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
Holding his breath, he listened... | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
AAAAAAGGHHH ! | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
There it was...unmistakeable! | 0:09:44 | 0:09:49 | |
The thing was on the other side! | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
Trying to get in! Trying to get in! | 0:09:53 | 0:09:59 | |
KNOCKING | 0:09:59 | 0:10:00 | |
-Aaaaah! -Aaaaah! -Aaaaah! | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
-It can't get in! It can't get in! -Wheesht! Quiet! And listen... | 0:10:02 | 0:10:08 | |
-Would somebody open the door? > -It's Godfrey! | 0:10:08 | 0:10:13 | |
-Hello. I was going to leave you a note. -Anything important? | 0:10:22 | 0:10:29 | |
There's been a blitz on blackouts. Area HQ have sent a note down to me. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:36 | |
-We don't have much bother here. 'Ere, fancy a cup? -Yes. Watch the blackouts, won't you? -Yeah. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:43 | |
Two lumps, please. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
-Mr Jones? -Yeah? | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
If we do go downstairs, we won't see Willy's slithery thing, will we? | 0:10:48 | 0:10:54 | |
No, of course we won't. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
-I'm going to stay up here. Aren't you? -Yeah, as long as possible. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:02 | |
-If we go, we go together. -That'll be nice. -Yeah. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:07 | |
We can take a rifle, and if we see the slithery thing we can shoot it. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:13 | |
-We'll fix bayonets. -Yeah. Slithery things won't like it up 'em any more than fuzzy-wuzzies. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:21 | |
No, you can't beat the old steel. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
-I wish Uncle Arthur was with us. Don't you? -No. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:29 | |
I wish we was with him. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:32 | |
< I say... | 0:11:32 | 0:11:35 | |
AAAAAAAAH ! Oh, sorry, Mr Godfrey. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
I just wondered, if we saw spies, how could we tell Captain Mainwaring? | 0:11:39 | 0:11:45 | |
-We'll have to use our initiative. -Failing that, there's a telephone on the wall. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:52 | |
Yes, we'll use our initiative... and that telephone on the wall. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:58 | |
-Is it working? -I don't know. We'll have to try it. That's our best thing. We'll try it. Yes. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:06 | |
We'll try it. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
Hello? Jones the butcher here. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:16 | |
-Hello? ..It's dead. -Dead? -Then we're cut off! | 0:12:16 | 0:12:22 | |
-Keep calm! We're cut off! Keep calm! -It's the slithery thing! | 0:12:22 | 0:12:27 | |
-Of course it isnae! -Perhaps they haven't paid the bill. -Lighthouses don't get bills! | 0:12:27 | 0:12:34 | |
We forgot to pay the bill and were cut off once, but so few people ring us, we didn't know for two weeks... | 0:12:34 | 0:12:41 | |
-There's a light switch... -Don't touch that! | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
-We're not blacked-out. -We can do it just long enough for a quick peek. -Yeah, all right, then. Here we go. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:53 | |
The electricity's cut off! | 0:12:53 | 0:12:56 | |
-It's the slithery thing! -Shut up! | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I'll do the mains switch. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:04 | |
POWER SURGES | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
THAT'S the slithery thing! | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
I feel a little frightened. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
-Hey, look! -It was nae slithery thing! | 0:13:15 | 0:13:21 | |
It was the generator! | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
It's all right, men. It's only the generator. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:29 | |
Only the... | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
-OH! Blimey! -Anyway, you can read the instructions all right now. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:37 | |
-What about the blackout? -Turn it off quick! -Yeah, I better turn it off. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:43 | |
Right, I'm now going to turn it off. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:47 | |
-They'd a time switch in "The Phantom Light" with Gordon Harker. -It's lighting up the whole coast! | 0:13:47 | 0:13:54 | |
You've got to act, man! | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
That's right. A bit of action, yes. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
Pikey, you look for switches and Frazer and I will do... something else. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:07 | |
-I know - we'll fix bayonets! -Fix bayonets. You're not going to charge the damn thing, are you? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:15 | |
Look, Frazer. I'm in command. You fix bayonets. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:19 | |
My sister broke a 40-Watt bulb once and it made an awful bang. That could blow us all into the sea! | 0:14:19 | 0:14:28 | |
Godfrey, you give me your blanket, come on. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
We'll fix one corner to my bayonet and fix the other corner to Frazer's bayonet. Right? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:38 | |
-Put it on the top there. -Right. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:42 | |
Ready? Lift it up and follow me. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
Wait for the light... Here we go! | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
Left, right. Left, right... | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
-Well, that's cleared up the bumph for the time being. -Ah, good. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:02 | |
-These brass hats from the War Office certainly like their red tape. -They certainly do, sir. Yes. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:11 | |
-Makes it hard for the front-line troops. -Yes. I'll have an early night, sir. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:17 | |
-Yes, why not? -All right. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
What are you doing, Wilson? | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
-Good heavens. That's funny. -Well, I don't find it very funny. Switch the light on! | 0:15:24 | 0:15:29 | |
Come out here a minute, sir. Come on. Look. What do you make of that? | 0:15:29 | 0:15:36 | |
-Over there. -It's only the lighthouse. There's probably a special convoy going through. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:41 | |
Good heavens! Jones's section! | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
Could someone be meddling with something that doesn't concern them? | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
-Let's get to the harbour at once, Wilson! -All right, sir. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:53 | |
-That was a good cup of tea. -That fella Walker got us it. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:59 | |
Walker? I wouldn't have touched it if I'd known! | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
-Well, since the Luftwaffe haven't come, I'm off home. -'Night. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:09 | |
Mr Alberts... Mr Alberts? | 0:16:16 | 0:16:20 | |
-I wasn't notified of this. -I saw the Home Guard going out. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:28 | |
-Not Mainwaring's mob? -That old Lance Corporal. -Ruddy hooligans! Put that ruddy light out! | 0:16:28 | 0:16:36 | |
-They can't hear you. -I'll make 'em hear me. PUT THAT LIGHT OUT! | 0:16:36 | 0:16:41 | |
-I'll get 'em! I'll get 'em on the phone... -Don't worry. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
PUT THAT LIGHT OUT!!! | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
I don't think I can keep this up much longer! | 0:16:55 | 0:17:00 | |
-Righto, Frazer, stand by next time round. -Right! | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
-It's like the bloody Olympics! -Come on! Come on! | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
Left, right! Left, right! Pick 'em up! Pick 'em up! | 0:17:08 | 0:17:13 | |
Hold back! Hold back! | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
What's your game, Frazer? When I say, "Left, right, pick 'em up," I mean... | 0:17:16 | 0:17:22 | |
Well, it's stuck now, look at this. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:26 | |
-You've clogged the cogs. -Anyway, we don't have to go on running round like squirrels in a cage. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:33 | |
Doesn't Walmington look pretty all lit up? | 0:17:33 | 0:17:37 | |
Blimey! It's stuck right across the town! | 0:17:37 | 0:17:41 | |
It's a good job the siren hasn't gone, isn't it? | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
SIREN STARTS | 0:17:45 | 0:17:51 | |
I don't think Mr Mainwaring is going to be very pleased with us. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:56 | |
SIREN CONTINUES | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
Well, seems to have stopped going round and round, sir. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:06 | |
-This is damn serious, Wilson. -Yes. -We're a sitting target for every Jerry plane within 50 miles! | 0:18:06 | 0:18:14 | |
That fool Mainwaring isn't even in his headquarters! Look! | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
Your lot have done that, the whole town lit up and now Jerry's arrived! | 0:18:17 | 0:18:22 | |
-I'm well aware of the situation. -What are you going to do? | 0:18:22 | 0:18:27 | |
-We must get out there at once. -But the tide's in. -Get a boat. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:32 | |
You'll be dashed to pieces on the rocks! | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
-Come on, Wilson. -All right, sir. -Get a lifebelt. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
Let them do it! It serves them right! | 0:18:38 | 0:18:43 | |
-There's no such word as "can't." If the spirit is willing, nothing can stop us! -There isn't a boat. -Ah(!) | 0:18:43 | 0:18:50 | |
That is rather an obstacle. Well, we must find some other way. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:56 | |
A pound to a penny he'll try and walk on the water! | 0:18:56 | 0:19:00 | |
'Ere, this is a bit of a lark! Old Jones is up the creek without a paddle and no mistake. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:04 | |
We've got to put that light out somehow. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:06 | |
-Shoot it out! -What? -With the Lewis gun. -We can't. -You mean you couldn't hit it! | 0:19:06 | 0:19:13 | |
I mean one of our men might get hit. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
Your men? What about the town, what about the women and children, all the bombs raining down? | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
-The bombs aren't raining down. -No, but they will in a minute! | 0:19:19 | 0:19:23 | |
-Give us that gun! -Take your hands off it! | 0:19:23 | 0:19:28 | |
Oh, I'm having one of my turns! | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
Come on, sit down, for heaven's sake, behave yourself and keep quiet. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:35 | |
-I know a bloke at the power station who could black out the whole county. -Don't be ridiculous, Walker. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:43 | |
- 'Ere, what about the transformer? - Walker, be sensible or keep quiet. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:49 | |
I think that's very sensible. Lead on, Walker, and take this gun. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:56 | |
Right, you lift that up nice and high and that will stop the light going over the town, won't it? | 0:19:58 | 0:20:06 | |
-There. -That's quite good. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
It's a much softer light. The other was terribly hard. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:14 | |
Mr Jones, there's steam coming out of the blanket. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:20 | |
Well, It's probably a bit damp, you see. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:25 | |
Yeah, but the steam should be white and that steam is black. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:31 | |
The blanket's on fire! Don't panic! Don't panic! | 0:20:33 | 0:20:37 | |
UPROAR | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
Unfortunately, it seems to be locked. That's easy. Got a hairpin? | 0:20:59 | 0:21:07 | |
-Am I likely to have a hairpin? -Don't you sell them? I'd have to open a new packet! | 0:21:07 | 0:21:14 | |
-Here, use this paper-clip. -Would you turn the other way? Professional etiquette. Oh, heavens! | 0:21:14 | 0:21:20 | |
Get on with it. Right. That's it. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
-All we need is the right switch. -There aren't many. Plenty of wires. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:34 | |
Lend me your tin hat. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:37 | |
-Please, please, sir. Don't overdo it. -Stand clear. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:43 | |
Stand well clear. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
BANG! | 0:21:47 | 0:21:51 | |
Now walk away slowly as though nothing had happened. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:55 | |
-'Ere, the lights have fused. -Pity that one hasn't. Get the hurricane lamps out. | 0:21:55 | 0:22:01 | |
-Mr Jones, I think I've found another switch. -Well, switch it, Pikey boy, switch it! | 0:22:01 | 0:22:06 | |
FOGHORN SOUNDS | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
Blimey, if they can't see us, they'll hear us! I need a pill! | 0:22:13 | 0:22:19 | |
Oh, cor blimey! It's Hutch! | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
-Damn it! That light's still on. -Not in there, though! | 0:22:22 | 0:22:28 | |
-Who flashed without my authority? -Who are you? -I'm the keeper. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:33 | |
-They can't flash without my authority. -Can that be thing be turned off from here? -Of course not! | 0:22:33 | 0:22:40 | |
-Why don't we use the telephone. -It's cut off. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:43 | |
-Perhaps the exchange could reconnect it. -That's good thinking. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
-Hello? Hello? -I used to live there once, but the salt got into my lungs. | 0:22:54 | 0:23:02 | |
I used to cough something awful. Terrible...it...wa... | 0:23:02 | 0:23:05 | |
HE COUGHS | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
Hello? Hello? Put me through to the supervisor, will you? | 0:23:15 | 0:23:21 | |
I can't do that. She goes off at six. There's only me here. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:25 | |
-Well then you'll have to deal with it. Listen very carefully. -Yes. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:29 | |
-This is Captain Mainwaring of the Home Guard. -Yes. Who? | 0:23:29 | 0:23:34 | |
Captain Mainwaring. M-A-I-N-W-A-R-I-N-G. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:40 | |
-Do you want me to write that down? -No, no, no, just listen. -Yes, sir. I'm listening. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:45 | |
-I'm speaking to you from the Jolly Roger Ice Cream Parlour. -That's been shut since the war. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:53 | |
-I know it has! It's an ARP post. -Are you an Air Raid Warden as well? | 0:23:53 | 0:24:00 | |
-Never mind that. Will you connect me to the lighthouse? -It's cut off. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:05 | |
-I know. Can you reconnect me? -I can't do that! You'll have to talk to the supervisor! | 0:24:05 | 0:24:11 | |
That's who I asked for in the first place. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
Oh, just a minute, there's an address here that takes messages for the lighthouse. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:19 | |
-Ah, good, that's the ticket. Give it to me, will you? Wilson, get a pencil and put this down. -Right. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:26 | |
It's the Jolly Roger Ice Cream Kiosk... | 0:24:26 | 0:24:31 | |
-The Jolly Roger... -Yes, all right. -I'm speaking from there! | 0:24:31 | 0:24:36 | |
Can't you give them the message, then? | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
Hang on, sir. Give it to me, will you? ..Hello, Freda? | 0:24:39 | 0:24:45 | |
- Who's that? - It's Joe. Joe Walker. - Oh! Hello, Joe! | 0:24:45 | 0:24:52 | |
'Ere, listen, love, stick 73 into 21, will you? | 0:24:52 | 0:24:56 | |
Oh, Joe, what are you up to now? | 0:24:56 | 0:25:01 | |
All right, then, I'll do it for you. Hang on. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
-There you are, sir. -You seem very well-informed. -We ran brandy from France before the war in motor-boats. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:10 | |
-I knew a bent coast guard who'd give us a tip-off when they were coming round the bay. -Really(?) | 0:25:10 | 0:25:15 | |
-PHONE RINGS -Ah! -Telephone! | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
-Jack Jones the butcher. -Corporal Jones? -Sir. -This is Captain Mainwaring. Listen very carefully. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:27 | |
-This is how to turn off the light. -'Right.' -You're to go down to the generator room. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:33 | |
-Right. Go down to the generator room? Right, sir. -Corporal Jones? | 0:25:33 | 0:25:39 | |
Just a minute. It's locked. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:42 | |
-Do you know where the key is? -Yes. | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
-Jones, I'm going to tell you where the key is. -It's here. -It's here... | 0:25:45 | 0:25:52 | |
You'll have to break the door down and get into the generator room. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
Break the door down. Right, sir. I'll do that directly, sir. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:04 | |
Now listen, men, we've to find the generator room and then find the door of it. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:10 | |
We'll break that down, go into the generator room and stop it! | 0:26:10 | 0:26:15 | |
-What about the slithery thing? -We'll stop that and all! Come on! You stay here, Mr Godfrey. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:23 | |
PLANES OVERHEAD Listen! I can hear 'em! There's hundreds of them. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:29 | |
-They're on their way somewhere else. -But when they see this, they'll change their minds, won't they? | 0:26:29 | 0:26:35 | |
They won't have another chance like this in the whole war! | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
-All right. Jones will put it out in a minute. -You'd better shoot it out now! They'll all be below. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:44 | |
I'll hold off until the last possible minute. Give me the gun. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:50 | |
Look, Mr Jones, I'm making a rabbit. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:58 | |
It's the biggest one you ever saw. It's all over Walmington. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:03 | |
They're practically overhead! For God's sake, shoot it out! | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
Now I'm making a bird. It's going right up and down the High Street. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:16 | |
Oh dear, what a pity no-one can see it. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
There's one caught in the searchlight! Shoot, you bloody fool, or it'll be murder! | 0:27:19 | 0:27:25 | |
-Go on, sir! -All right. Here goes. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
Oh, dear. What a pity, I was enjoying that. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:35 | |
Blimey! That was a near thing. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
You haven't heard the last of this! | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
Sir, I can't understand why we just don't concentrate on guarding things, instead of these absurd operations. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:50 | |
Oh, nonsense. By doing this, we've encountered difficulties and triumphed over them. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:57 | |
And we're better soldiers for it, enriched by the experience. | 0:27:57 | 0:28:02 | |
I have a feeling when the electric bill comes in, we'll all be a lot poorer! | 0:28:02 | 0:28:06 | |
-Oh, no. No, there's not a shred of evidence to connect us with it. -Mmm? | 0:28:06 | 0:28:13 | |
