I ain't half excited! | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
I was so excited at tea I could hardly eat. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
Mum's surprised I'm going to be a film star. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
Rubbish! Rubbish! | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
I think I'll play my part like Ronald Colman, in that film Under Two Flags. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:12 | |
I might even grow a moustache! | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
For goodness' sake, son, hald your whisht! | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
This film is never going to be shown in any cinema. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
It's just a cheap training film made for the Home Guard. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:29 | |
In the Sudan, fighting the fuzzy-wuzzy, we had no film. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
They weren't invented. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
That's why we never had no film. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Men of the Home Guard, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
we are facing a cunning and ruthless enemy. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
-SCOTTISH ACCENT: -Men of the Home Guard... | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
I wonder which is my best side. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Perhaps it's better with the hat off. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
Perhaps not! | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Good evening, sir. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
-Which would YOU say was my best side? -Perhaps you haven't got one. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:17 | |
-Really? -One side is no better than the other. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
Sorry...no WORSE... They're both just the same. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:25 | |
All right! | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
I wouldn't worry. They can do wonders with make-up. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
-Lipstick? Powder? -Yes! | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
I'm not having any of that muck on my face! | 0:02:34 | 0:02:38 | |
It does accentuate one's good points. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
In your case, it might help to bring out the firm, craggy line of your jaw. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:48 | |
-Do you really think so? -Yes. -Craggy, eh? | 0:02:49 | 0:02:53 | |
It might also get rid of your double chin. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
Now look here, Wilson, they want men on this film, not a lot of painted nancy-boys. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:02 | |
I can't understand why they're not using proper actors. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:07 | |
Jack Buchanan would take my part awfully well. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
-You rather fancy you look like Jack Buchanan, don't you? -Somebody once said, years ago... | 0:03:11 | 0:03:19 | |
There is no resemblance, believe me, in either speech or appearance. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |
-KNOCK AT DOOR -Come in. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
-Mr Mainwaring? -Yes, Pike? | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
The colonel's here, with the film people. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
Ah, good. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
You know, he doesn't look like a film producer at all. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:42 | |
I thought he'd be in breeches, like Erich von Stroheim. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
Stupid... | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
-What's the matter with your eyes? -Nothing. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
You've got dirt on your lip. Wipe it off! | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
Good evening, sir. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
Evening. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
-Permission to speak, sir? -Yes? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
I fell in the men for inspection by the colonel and the film people. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:15 | |
Thank you. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
-You did want them to be looked at by the film people? -Yes. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
The platoon do look all right to be looked at? | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
Yes! They must get an all-round picture of the platoon. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
Very good, sir. Platoon, about turn! | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
About turn! | 0:04:35 | 0:04:36 | |
About turn! | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
What...? What are you doing? | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
-You said you wanted an all-round picture, sir. -Oh, really! Platoon, about turn! | 0:04:42 | 0:04:48 | |
Very keen, sir! | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
-Fall in, Pike! -Sorry! | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
This is the production assistant from the Crown Film Unit, Mr Forster. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:12 | |
Hello, squire! | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
This is our costume lady, Mrs Beal. Just call me Queenie. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
-How d'you do? This is Sergeant Wilson. -Awfully nice to meet you. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:24 | |
-Oooh, hello! -Hello. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
I don't understand. Why costumes? We've got our uniforms. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:32 | |
You won't be Home Guard. You're playing Nazis. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:36 | |
Nazis?! I'm not having my men blazoned across the screen in German uniform! | 0:05:36 | 0:05:43 | |
Don't worry, squire. All your stuff is in long shot in the distance. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:49 | |
-In the distance? -On screen you won't be bigger than that. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:54 | |
So you needn't worry about make-up! | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
-Is that it? -Yes. | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
The rest of the film is being made at the Gaumont British Studios. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:04 | |
The parts are being played by actors. Jack Hulbert's playing the captain, and Jack Buchanan the sergeant. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:12 | |
Oh! Fancy that! | 0:06:12 | 0:06:14 | |
Jack Buchanan playing the sergeant. Goodness me! | 0:06:14 | 0:06:19 | |
Ooh, yes, I measured him for his uniform. Lovely bloke! | 0:06:19 | 0:06:24 | |
-You're a dead ringer for him! -Yes? | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
-Who we going to have for the officer? -Me, of course. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
I'm sure you'll be an excellent German officer. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |
Couldn't make a worse mess than he does as a British one. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
Measure him, Queenie. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:43 | |
All right. Get your arms up, dear. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
Oooh, dear! | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
Oooh, I say! Ridiculous! | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
Oooh, I couldn't do him! Out of the question. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
I just couldn't do him, dear. And look at those feet. I've never seen such tiny feet. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:10 | |
I ain't got no jackboots that size. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
Tiny! He's got girl's feet. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
Couldn't you have a uniform made for me? | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
We couldn't get one made for Conrad Veidt! There's a war on, you know. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:28 | |
It's like this, you see. We've got two officers' uniforms. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:33 | |
We've got to get the men to fit the uniforms. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
Look around, Queenie. < All right. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:39 | |
-Can I have a word, sir? -Certainly. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
I refuse to have anything further to do with this film. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:50 | |
Your men are playing the Nazis, and that's an order. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:54 | |
However, you needn't take any part in it. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
-Just look after your men. -Thank you, sir. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:01 | |
I got your two officers, dear. This one and this one. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:05 | |
He's just like Jack Buchanan! | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
He'll make a lovely officer! > | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
Who'll be the sergeant? | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
Come on, funny-boy! Get your arms up! | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
SONG: # You oughta be in pictures You're wonderful to see... # | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
You know... I feel a right soppy twirrup | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
wearing this ridiculous get-up. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
And Mainwaring got out of it because he couldnae be an officer. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:49 | |
The big jessie! | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
Why shouldn't he look a fool like all the rest of us? | 0:08:51 | 0:08:55 | |
You don't! In that helmet you look like an eagle. | 0:08:55 | 0:09:00 | |
Rubbish! Rubbish! | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
General Kitchener would turn in his grave if he saw me! | 0:09:05 | 0:09:10 | |
He couldn't abide German uniforms. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
"Hun helmets look like saucepans," he'd say. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
They brought a German prisoner to him, | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
and he was grovelling before him. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
He said, "How dare you grovel before me with that saucepan on your head? | 0:09:23 | 0:09:29 | |
"Take it off, man!" he ejaculated. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
And the German, he said, "Nein, nein, mein general. I cannot, I cannot! | 0:09:32 | 0:09:38 | |
"It is stuck!" | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
"Well," said the general, in a jocular frame of mind, | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
"if a saucepan is on your head, you'd better go and boil your head." | 0:09:44 | 0:09:49 | |
He was very witty sometimes. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:52 | |
Schweinhund! | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
Zo... | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
..we are the masters now, eh? | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
You have just five seconds to tell us your plans, or else it is...kaput! | 0:10:31 | 0:10:37 | |
I like being an officer, don't you? | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
These uniforms are awfully smart, aren't they? They do something for one. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:47 | |
I think we ought to strut and swagger. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
-Let's practise strutting and swaggering. -That's awfully good. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:55 | |
-Very good. -You do it. Come on! | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
I don't think so. I'm not awfully good at it. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
You could do a goose-step. Go on! | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
Do a goose-step. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
He's very good, no, Mainwaring? | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
Get up! | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
I sometimes wonder where your loyalties lie, Wilson. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:30 | |
Really, these uniforms are so smart, don't you think? They suit any figure. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:36 | |
The sooner this film nonsense is over, the better. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
-Fall the men in. -Sir. Fall in, will you? | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
Fall in. Three ranks. Quick as you can. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
Now... | 0:11:56 | 0:11:57 | |
Fall in, Pike. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
D'you hear what I said? Fall in! | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
I'm an officer! | 0:12:10 | 0:12:12 | |
I'm not going to fall in with the privates. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
All officers should be treated well. It's in the Geneva Convention. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:21 | |
If you don't stop fooling about I shall send you home. Fall in. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:26 | |
-Now, pay attention! -Permission to speak, sir? I want to unvolunteer to be a German sergeant. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:38 | |
I've always wanted these stripes, but this is too high a price to pay. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:44 | |
It's wrong I should have to wear this ridiculous helmet. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
I appreciate your feelings, but we're under orders so we must get on with it. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:55 | |
Sir, my uniform has got "Burman" written on it. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:59 | |
I hope it's clean. You never know where these Germans have been. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:04 | |
I shouldn't worry too much, Godfrey. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
They're not real uniforms they're theatrical costumes. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:13 | |
Mr Mainwaring, how will people know that we're not real Nazis? | 0:13:13 | 0:13:18 | |
That's a good point. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
The colonel has given instructions for security. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
No-one must see you, so stay inside the van and I will drive. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:28 | |
You can come out now. All clear. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
-GERMAN ACCENT: On the double! Move! -Stop playing the fool! | 0:13:48 | 0:13:52 | |
And take that stupid thing out! | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
Excuse me, sir, are you sure we're in the right place? | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
-Of course I'm sure. -Shouldn't there be lights and cameras? | 0:14:01 | 0:14:06 | |
These people are always late. They spend their time drinking cocktails. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:12 | |
-Jones! -Sir? -The men can eat their sandwiches. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
Do as you're told. Eat your sandwiches! | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
-Uncle Arthur, we shouldn't eat our sandwiches with them. -Why not? | 0:14:24 | 0:14:29 | |
We're officers! Let's eat them on our own. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
-Don't be absurd! -< Hello, squire. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
-The film has been postponed till next week. -Postponed? | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
-Some bother with Jack and Cis. -Who? | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
-Jack Hulbert and Cicely Courtneidge. -We're filming Jack now. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:47 | |
Do you mean to say we've been shut in that van on a hot day, | 0:14:47 | 0:14:52 | |
wearing these stupid clothes, and a couple of actors decide they're no' coming? | 0:14:52 | 0:14:58 | |
All right! | 0:14:58 | 0:14:59 | |
Jack insists on being with Cis, and Cis insists on being with Jack. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:05 | |
I was reading only last week that they're the happiest couple in show business. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:11 | |
I read that too. Jack's the boy, eh? | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
-# -The flies crawl up the window They've nothing else to do... -# -Be quiet, Jones! | 0:15:14 | 0:15:21 | |
We are fighting a war upon which the whole of civilisation depends! | 0:15:21 | 0:15:26 | |
The might of the German army is poised, ready to strike! | 0:15:26 | 0:15:31 | |
And you drag troops on this fools' errand, because Cis insists! | 0:15:31 | 0:15:37 | |
Must keep the stars happy! See you next week. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
This is outrageous! | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
-I'll phone GHQ! -What a pity we can't do any shooting. -Shooting? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:47 | |
Shooting. It's a sort of technical term for filming. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:52 | |
Get back on the van! | 0:15:52 | 0:15:54 | |
SONG: # You oughta be in pictures | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
# You're wonderful to see You oughta be in pictures How beautiful you would be... # | 0:15:57 | 0:16:04 | |
This isn't a game, boy! Get inside! | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
# You ought to shine as brightly As Jupiter and Mars | 0:16:30 | 0:16:34 | |
# You oughta be in pictures My star of stars. # | 0:16:34 | 0:16:39 | |
Wilson, I'm going across to that phone box to ring GHQ. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:44 | |
-Don't get out! I don't want you to be seen! -It's like an oven in here. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:50 | |
Mr Godfrey's looking a bit pale. He needs fresh air. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:54 | |
Open the door and push his face against the crack. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
-How's that? -A little better, thank you. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
What about me? I want some fresh air as well! | 0:17:12 | 0:17:16 | |
You can't have any! Didn't you hear? | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
-No-one's got to see us. -Rubbish! | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
How dare you disobey orders? You've exposed us to the whole world! | 0:17:22 | 0:17:28 | |
-Uncle Arthur? -Yes? -That pub looks nice! | 0:17:28 | 0:17:32 | |
I could do with a drink! | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
So could I! But Captain Mainwaring told us to stay here. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:38 | |
He's only a Home Guard officer. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:41 | |
-We're German officers. -Yes! | 0:17:41 | 0:17:44 | |
-I suppose we are! -Come on, then! | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
Let's go. No-one will see us. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
It's all right. | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
-There's nobody here. -Good. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
-We shouldn't do this! -What'll you have? -A pint! -Right. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:06 | |
-We'll be quick Mainwaring will be ages. -I'll order the drinks. Shop! | 0:18:06 | 0:18:12 | |
-Morning, gentlemen. -Morning. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:14 | |
Now, what can I get...? | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
Good afternoon, mein host. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
Sixteen shandies mit the ginger beer. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:35 | |
S...s...ginger b-beer... Pints or halves? | 0:18:39 | 0:18:44 | |
Pints. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:45 | |
Pints. The ginger beer is... | 0:18:45 | 0:18:49 | |
Frank, stop playing the fool. I'm tired and thirsty. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
Doris! Yes, Mr Palethorpe? | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
Doris, I've got 16 Nazis in the bar, and they want 16 shandies. Ginger beer! | 0:19:00 | 0:19:06 | |
It's a hot day. They're probably thirsty. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
Oh. Yes, I never thought... | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
What are you talking about? Did you hear me?! Sssh! | 0:19:12 | 0:19:16 | |
Sixteen Nazis! In the bar! | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
Don't be daft! Look for yourself! | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
Careful. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:24 | |
They're not Nazis! They're a lot of old men. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:31 | |
Of course! They're disguised as old men so they won't look like Nazis! | 0:19:31 | 0:19:36 | |
In that case, why are they wearing Nazi uniform? | 0:19:36 | 0:19:41 | |
What? | 0:19:41 | 0:19:42 | |
Get out in the village, quick! Tell the police and rouse the village. And don't make a noise! Go on! | 0:19:42 | 0:19:50 | |
Don't stand there! | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
Well... | 0:19:54 | 0:19:55 | |
..nice bit of weather you've brought with you, gentlemen! | 0:19:55 | 0:20:00 | |
Wilson! Jones! | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
I thought so! | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
Wilson! What are you playing at? | 0:20:18 | 0:20:20 | |
-Sorry! We felt thirsty, so we had a drink. -People will think we ARE Germans! | 0:20:20 | 0:20:27 | |
I say, landlord! | 0:20:28 | 0:20:30 | |
I'm sure it seems odd to you to see everybody dressed as Germans, | 0:20:30 | 0:20:35 | |
but I needn't tell you that they're not really Germans. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:40 | |
No. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
I wouldn't breathe a word to anyone. They might get the wrong idea. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:47 | |
You do understand? | 0:20:47 | 0:20:49 | |
Yes. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:50 | |
Outside! | 0:20:52 | 0:20:53 | |
GERMAN ACCENT: Come on, everybody! | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |
Into the van, fast! | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
Into the van. Quick, before you're seen. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:05 | |
See? | 0:21:08 | 0:21:09 | |
Hey! | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
Don't stand there! DO something! They're escaping. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:17 | |
-What can -I -do? You're a constable. Arrest 'em! | 0:21:17 | 0:21:21 | |
All of 'em? Arrest that British officer! He's a quisling! | 0:21:21 | 0:21:26 | |
It's a very delicate situation. BABBLE OF VOICES | 0:21:26 | 0:21:31 | |
-Excuse me, sir! -Yes, what is it, officer? | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
-May I ask you something? -Yes? -Why have you got a vanful of Germans? | 0:21:38 | 0:21:43 | |
I assure you they're not Germans. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
Schweinhund! | 0:21:46 | 0:21:48 | |
Get out of the way at once! N-n-n-nar! | 0:21:48 | 0:21:51 | |
Get inside the van. I shan't tell you again! | 0:21:51 | 0:21:55 | |
Youthful high spirits! | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
I'M not afraid, even if you are! Quisling! Traitor! | 0:21:57 | 0:22:02 | |
No, no, madam! I'm Captain Mainwaring! | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
-YELLING AND HAMMERING -There's someone knocking on the van! | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
He'll get away! Stop him! Quick, stop him! | 0:22:10 | 0:22:15 | |
You've let him get away! I'll take charge! We must warn England! | 0:22:15 | 0:22:20 | |
They're making for Walmington-on-Sea. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
Get in touch with the Home Guard. I'll call the Eastbourne police. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:28 | |
Keep calm! | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
It states there that I have the hall every Thursday. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:37 | |
Why was it given to Mainwaring? | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
He told me he'd spoken to you. He hadn't. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
What shall I do? | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
Sort that out yourself, Mr Yateman. I'm writing my sermon. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:50 | |
When Mainwaring gets back, I'll have a few words to say! | 0:22:50 | 0:22:54 | |
TELEPHONE RINGS Answer it. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:56 | |
Hello. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard? They're out. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:02 | |
Don't go. I've got an urgent message for 'em. 16 Nazis on their way over there. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:09 | |
Who are you? | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
I'm Mr Palethorpe, the landlord of the Six Bells. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:20 | |
Did you hear what I said? | 0:23:20 | 0:23:22 | |
Nazis, 16 of them. They're led by a British officer, a quisling. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:27 | |
So tell the Home Guard, and WARN ENGLAND! | 0:23:27 | 0:23:31 | |
Gor blimey! What's the matter, Mr Hodges? | 0:23:34 | 0:23:38 | |
The landlord of the Six Bells has had a right skinful. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
Blabbering about Germans led by a British officer. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
The evils of drink! | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
Yes, indeed, your reverence. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
-Fall out, men! -> There's Napoleon! | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
I'll get the booking of this hall sorted out! Come on! | 0:23:55 | 0:24:00 | |
I'm writing my sermon! It's your hall! Come on. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:04 | |
Stop handling me! You know I can't stand it. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
Come on, get out! And you! Go on! | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
Germans! | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
Pay attention! I know you're disappointed we couldn't do any shooting today. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:24 | |
Perhaps we'll have better luck next week. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
I must stress how secret this is. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:32 | |
I want no repetition of this morning. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
We can't be seen in these uniforms. Hide them till they're needed for shooting. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:41 | |
WHISPERS: I can't believe it! | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
That landlord wasn't drunk. It's Mainwaring. He's a quisling. A traitor! | 0:24:44 | 0:24:50 | |
Oh, no! They'll shoot us! | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
Yeah! They'll shoot us! | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
We must sound the alarm. Yes... | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
The church bells! | 0:24:58 | 0:25:00 | |
VICAR: Now, quick, Mr Hodges, lock the door! | 0:25:17 | 0:25:21 | |
What peal shall we use? Stupid fellow, just ring the bells! | 0:25:21 | 0:25:25 | |
But... | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
Pull the ropes! | 0:25:27 | 0:25:28 | |
Quick! | 0:25:28 | 0:25:30 | |
That's all, men. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
-Dismiss. -Thank you, sir. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |
BELLS PEAL DISCORDANTLY | 0:25:35 | 0:25:39 | |
Good heavens! It's the church bells! | 0:25:39 | 0:25:42 | |
-The bells! -The Germans are coming! Don't panic! | 0:25:42 | 0:25:46 | |
-The Germans are coming! -Calm down! | 0:25:46 | 0:25:49 | |
Somebody saw us and thought we're real Germans. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:53 | |
We must stop those bells! Follow me! | 0:25:53 | 0:25:56 | |
SHOUTING | 0:25:56 | 0:25:58 | |
-It's locked. STOP RINGING THE BELLS! -Oi! | 0:26:05 | 0:26:08 | |
-WE'RE NOT REAL GERMANS! -Break it down! -Right, sir! | 0:26:08 | 0:26:13 | |
They're trying to get in! HAMMERING ON DOOR | 0:26:13 | 0:26:17 | |
-Stop! It's not doing any good! -They can't hear you because of the bells. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:23 | |
-Phone GHQ tell them it's a false alarm. -Yes, sir. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:28 | |
-Permission to speak, sir? -Yes. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
-Why don't you shoot the lock off? -Good idea! -You might hit one of the bellringers! -Ah! | 0:26:31 | 0:26:38 | |
Well done! I wondered who'd spot that first. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:42 | |
-Couldn't we put a note under the door? -Good idea, Godfrey. Take a note, Jones. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:48 | |
A note, sir? Right, sir! | 0:26:48 | 0:26:51 | |
I didn't expect to have to write down anything, sir. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:55 | |
-Stand clear. -Stand clear. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
-I'm shooting the lock off. -Shooting...the...lock...off. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:02 | |
-Yours sincerely... -No! Get it under the door. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:06 | |
-Under the door. -Captain Mainwaring! | 0:27:06 | 0:27:09 | |
If we shoot the lock off, WE'LL have to pay for the damage! | 0:27:09 | 0:27:14 | |
Stand clear! | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
-It's still locked. -INSIDE: -Just a minute, sir! | 0:27:19 | 0:27:23 | |
It was bolted! | 0:27:24 | 0:27:26 | |
-How did you get in? -Through the vestry. There's no-one here. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:32 | |
-Captain Mainwaring! -Yes? -Look! | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
What are you doing? Come down at once! | 0:27:38 | 0:27:42 | |
You...you flipping hooligans! | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
-Mr Mainwaring? -Yes? | 0:27:44 | 0:27:47 | |
Oooh! Hello! | 0:27:47 | 0:27:48 | |
-I got through to GHQ, spoke to the brigadier. -And? | 0:27:48 | 0:27:53 | |
-There was three battalions of Coldstream Guards on their way, but we stopped 'em. -Well done, Pike. | 0:27:53 | 0:28:00 | |
The whole of the south coast is on red alert! | 0:28:00 | 0:28:04 | |
The brigadier wanted to know what blithering idiot was responsible! | 0:28:04 | 0:28:09 | |
So I made an appointment for you tomorrow, 10.30. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:13 | |
You stupid boy! | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
