0:00:56 > 0:00:59PEN NIB SCRATCHES

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Aren't you feeling very well?

0:01:14 > 0:01:18What? I... I've got a slight headache.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23SCRATCHING AGAIN

0:01:23 > 0:01:28Frank, do you really have to make all that noise?

0:01:28 > 0:01:32I've to do the ledgers. You know Mainwaring is fussy.

0:01:32 > 0:01:36Yes, but couldn't you do it more quietly?

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Use another nib or something.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44It's the only nib I've got.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48They're difficult to get. There's a war on!

0:01:48 > 0:01:49Yes! Yes!

0:01:49 > 0:01:59Your headache is your fault. You go home after I've gone to bed and you return for breakfast before I'm up.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02I come to eat. Your mother gets my ration.

0:02:02 > 0:02:08But I never hear you leave or hear you come back in the morning.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12Yes, well I... You see, I let myself in and out very quietly.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16You never do anything else quietly.

0:02:16 > 0:02:21Frank, would you please stop! Just stop it will you. Stop. Stop.

0:02:22 > 0:02:27Do you know your trouble, Uncle Arthur? You don't get enough sleep.

0:02:27 > 0:02:35Tonight I'm going to make sure you leave our house before I go to bed. SLAMS LEDGER SHUT

0:02:40 > 0:02:43- Morning, Wilson. Pike. - Good morning, sir.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- What's that, sir? - A new door for my office.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51- How lovely. - Do you realise, Wilson,

0:02:51 > 0:02:58it's 3 months since the bank was bombed. I don't know how often I've applied for a new door. Red tape!

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Get down, Pike. Pike, get down. Get down.

0:03:02 > 0:03:06- Have you got my name-plate? - Yes, it's here.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Ah, look at this, Wilson.- Mmm?

0:03:09 > 0:03:12- My name in glittering gold letters. - Oh!

0:03:12 > 0:03:17Can't wait to put it in its place on the door.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Well, it is rather a plain door.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22- Mmm?- Oh that isn't the actual door.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Oh.- The door's inside.

0:03:25 > 0:03:32- They probably put that case on to protect the panelling. - Oh, I see, yes, Mmm!

0:03:32 > 0:03:39I mean they wouldn't give me, Manager of the bank, a plywood one. Do use your intelligence, Wilson.

0:03:41 > 0:03:45- Take the paper off. - Paper? This is the door.

0:03:48 > 0:03:56- But it's made of paper? - Tar paper to be exact. Standard issue replacement in bombed offices.

0:03:59 > 0:04:04- I can't screw my name-plate onto a paper door.- You could stick it on.

0:04:04 > 0:04:08That's enough, boy. Be quiet. Get back to the counter.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11This is monstrous. I'll complain.

0:04:11 > 0:04:17- Don't go on at me. Do you want it up or not?- Oh very well, yes.- Right.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21How can I interview clients behind that door?

0:04:21 > 0:04:28- They use paper doors in Japan. - What's that got to do with it? - I've really no idea.

0:04:28 > 0:04:34- How can anybody knock on it?- You could say, "Don't knock, cough."

0:04:34 > 0:04:39I'm not having people coughing and spluttering outside my door.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Just a minute.

0:04:42 > 0:04:50- It's got holes in it. What are these holes?- Don't worry about that. I'll fix that.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Got any stamp paper? Sure, hang on.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Here. Ta.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05There we are, good as new, eh?

0:05:05 > 0:05:08I can't have white spots on the door.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11You're a fussy little fellow!

0:05:21 > 0:05:23That suit?

0:05:25 > 0:05:27- Come in the office, Wilson.- Right.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31- I must speak to those cleaners. - Yes.

0:05:31 > 0:05:37- Mr Mainwaring, the Colonel's outside.- Tell him I shan't be long. - Yes, sir.

0:05:37 > 0:05:44- On the subject of tidiness, you need a hair cut. - I never get around to it.

0:05:44 > 0:05:49I know you think you look like Anthony Eden, but you're my Clerk

0:05:49 > 0:05:53- and my Sergeant. - Heavens, look.- What?

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Look at it.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Morning.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01- You set fire to my door. - Excuse me.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Make way.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Well done.

0:06:11 > 0:06:16Very quick thinking, young man. Thank you, sir.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18- And the hole?- Stick paper over it.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Shall I get the stamp book? - Get out, boy!

0:06:22 > 0:06:25Come and sit down, Colonel.

0:06:25 > 0:06:30Sorry to barge in, but I've got some bad news.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32It's about Godfrey.

0:06:34 > 0:06:40About Godfrey? I hope you're not going to say he can't stay in the platoon.

0:06:40 > 0:06:47He's getting on but he's a father figure for the younger ones to lean on.

0:06:47 > 0:06:52- As long as they don't lean heavily! - I mean emotionally.

0:06:52 > 0:06:59Oh no, when the bullets start flying Godfrey won't throw himself in a funk hole.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03Well not quickly... with his rheumatics.

0:07:03 > 0:07:10- No, it's nothing to do with being in the Home Guard. He lives at Cherry Tree Cottage, doesn't he?- Yes.

0:07:10 > 0:07:18It's a lovely old place. A cottage with a thatched roof, a white fence and roses growing in the garden.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22It's like a picture off a chocolate box.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26Whenever I pass I have to stop and say,

0:07:26 > 0:07:30"That's it, that's what we're fighting for."

0:07:30 > 0:07:36- I couldn't have put it better. - Well it's got to come down.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Come down?

0:07:38 > 0:07:42A new aerodrome's being built there.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Well, can nothing be done about it?

0:07:45 > 0:07:49It's vital for the war effort. He'll get compensation.

0:07:49 > 0:07:55I thought you'd better tell him then the official notice isn't a shock.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58I won't take up any more of your time.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Cheerio.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Goodbye, sir.

0:08:04 > 0:08:08What are we going to do about Godfrey?

0:08:08 > 0:08:14Yes, poor old thing. He's been there with his sisters for donkey's years.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17I know.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I can't possibly tell him.

0:08:19 > 0:08:24We'll get Frazer and Jones over here. Pike... PIKE !

0:08:24 > 0:08:25Coming.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Mr Mainwaring...

0:08:33 > 0:08:38I can't get in... Hang on, had an idea.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44- How dare you put your arm through my door?- The handle had come off.

0:08:44 > 0:08:49- You've torn it.- It's not my fault if they give a rotten door!

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Don't use that tone of voice to me!

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Go and get Mr Jones and Mr Frazer over here.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Yes, sir.- Right.

0:09:06 > 0:09:12Look at that door. It's only been up a few minutes and it's ruined.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Mr Jones is here with his takings.

0:09:14 > 0:09:19- Ask him to come in then go for Frazer.- Yes, sir.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24I wish we could help Godfrey. I feel very deeply about this.

0:09:24 > 0:09:29Lend him some money to buy a new cottage.

0:09:29 > 0:09:38Ah... Well, I don't want my personal feelings to get mixed up with my position in the bank.

0:09:38 > 0:09:45- Good morning, Mr Mainwaring. You want to see me? - Just a moment. I'll help you in.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Sir.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53Oh...! Cheap rubbish, the handle's come off.

0:09:53 > 0:09:57- I'll put my shoulder to it. - No, it's made...

0:10:09 > 0:10:13Well, there's the position in a nutshell.

0:10:13 > 0:10:19Godfrey's cottage has to come down and I've been asked to tell him.

0:10:19 > 0:10:24Mmm... At his age the shock could very easily kill him.

0:10:25 > 0:10:32And you'll be responsible. You were saying, Mr Mainwaring, YOU'LL be responsible!

0:10:32 > 0:10:35Yes, alright, alright, alright!

0:10:35 > 0:10:40- Why don't we move his cottage?- Move it?

0:10:40 > 0:10:47Yeah. We could take it to bits and put it up somewhere else. We'd just have to number the bricks.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51The roof's covered with thatch. You couldnae number that.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55We could cut it into slices and roll it up.

0:10:55 > 0:11:03- We couldn't do it on a windy day, of course.- No, no. I think you're getting into fantasy again, Jones.

0:11:03 > 0:11:09He's not. In that film, "Ghost Goes West", Robert Donat and Jean Arthur,

0:11:09 > 0:11:13they took a castle from Scotland to California.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16- PHONE RINGS - See who it is, Wilson.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19I saw that film.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Rubbish!

0:11:22 > 0:11:28Their kilts hung too far below their Sassenach knees.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Yes, Martin's Bank, yes... What?

0:11:30 > 0:11:33Oh, Raymond, yes. Just a minute.

0:11:33 > 0:11:41Excuse me, sir. Jonesey, your boy Raymond says would you hurry up as the offal queue is impatient.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45- Tell him I won't be long. - He won't be long

0:11:45 > 0:11:48Could we get on. Jones, Frazer...

0:11:48 > 0:11:51Alright, I'll tell him... Goodbye.

0:11:51 > 0:11:57Excuse me again. Jonesey, your boy says Frazer's boy, Heathcliffe,

0:11:57 > 0:12:02said to move the queue from the front of Frazer's shop.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09- Is this true, Mr Frazer?- Aye!

0:12:09 > 0:12:12I told him to get them shifted.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16How dare you interfere with my offal queue?

0:12:16 > 0:12:20They've no right to queue in front of my shop.

0:12:20 > 0:12:25I don't want old women gaping in my window, arguing about their points.

0:12:25 > 0:12:33Look, my queue doesn't want to look in your window. You've only got an old urn and a bit of velvet in it.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36Ha! My window's better than yours!

0:12:36 > 0:12:43All it's got in it is a couple of plaster pigs with comic expressions on their faces.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46It's not my fault I can't get meat.

0:12:46 > 0:12:51I know we're all busy, but give me two minutes of your attention!

0:12:51 > 0:12:59The Colonel has asked me to tell Godfrey and I think, that is we think, Sergeant Wilson and I,

0:12:59 > 0:13:07that perhaps you, Jones, or you, Frazer, might be better telling him. You are his contemporaries.

0:13:07 > 0:13:12- You mean you're trying to wriggle out of it.- That's not fair.

0:13:12 > 0:13:18I'll have you know that he is our Commanding Officer and a gentleman!

0:13:18 > 0:13:20And futhermore... Just a minute,

0:13:20 > 0:13:24them pigs haven't got comic expressions.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27They've got happy, laughing faces.

0:13:27 > 0:13:32- FRAZER MUTTERS - Please, be quiet, both of you.

0:13:32 > 0:13:39It's no good, Wilson, you and I will have to go up to Godfrey's cottage tomorrow and tell him.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44- And you, Pike.- Yes, sir. - We must grasp the nettle.

0:13:44 > 0:13:49His garden hasn't got any nettles. He's proud of it.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53# Follow the white line all the way

0:13:53 > 0:13:57# Leading from the Rose and Crown... #

0:13:57 > 0:14:05- We've got to pick exactly the right time to tell Godfrey.- How will we know when the right time is?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07In that film, "Dangerous Moonlight",

0:14:07 > 0:14:15Anton Walbrook had to tell his girl he was leaving so he played the piano to keep her mind off it.

0:14:15 > 0:14:20Uncle Arthur could do that. He plays so well.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29Oh look, sir, what lovely flowers.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33Ah, Mr Mainwaring, Mr Wilson, Frank.

0:14:33 > 0:14:38Hello. Mr Mainwaring's got something to say.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41We just thought we'd drop in and say hello.

0:14:41 > 0:14:48How nice. You're just in time for tea. Dolly, Cissy, look who's come to tea.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52- Isn't that nice, Cissy? It's Mr Mainwaring and his friends.- Oooh!

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- We must get some more chairs, Dolly. - Yes, more chairs.

0:14:56 > 0:15:02- What were you going to tell me?- I... I've never seen such lovely roses.

0:15:02 > 0:15:08They are lovely. This bush was planted by my father 50 years ago.

0:15:08 > 0:15:13- Really.- Tell him quickly and then we'll go.- He's asked us to tea!

0:15:13 > 0:15:22Look at that, perfect picture, isn't it! I often say to my sisters, it doesn't matter what Hitler does,

0:15:22 > 0:15:29this cottage with its garden will always be here. It's what we're fighting for.

0:15:29 > 0:15:34Mr Mainwaring, are you going to tell him now or during tea?

0:15:34 > 0:15:37- HE CLEARS THROAT - During tea.

0:15:39 > 0:15:44- Will you sit here, Mr Wilson? - Oh, thank you so much.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Ah, how pretty the table looks.

0:15:49 > 0:15:57- Mr Mainwaring, shall I sit next to Mr Godfrey in case he faints when you tell him?- Be quiet, boy.

0:15:57 > 0:16:03I hope you like this tea. It's made from water from our well. It gives it a special taste.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Tuck in, Frank. Thanks, Mr Godfrey.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09- Bread, Mr Mainwaring? - No thank you.

0:16:09 > 0:16:15- You must have one of my upside-down cakes, Mr Mainwaring.- Very well.

0:16:15 > 0:16:20This bread and raspberry jam looks absolutely delicious.

0:16:20 > 0:16:25I baked it in our old brick oven. It's what gives it the crusty taste.

0:16:25 > 0:16:29And I make the jam from our own raspberries.

0:16:29 > 0:16:34We're almost self-sufficient here. We have everything we need.

0:16:34 > 0:16:41- Mr Mainwaring, during tea! Are you going to tell him now? - After tea!

0:16:43 > 0:16:47MUSIC: An English Country Garden.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01The sun brings out the colour on that wall.

0:17:01 > 0:17:08The whole place has a sense of permanence. We often say this cottage stands for England.

0:17:08 > 0:17:13Mr Mainwaring, it's after tea. You've got to tell him now.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16You're right, Pike.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19The point is, Godfrey, that, um...

0:17:19 > 0:17:22- Wilson has something to say.- Me?

0:17:22 > 0:17:26- I can't. - Get on with it. It's an order.

0:17:26 > 0:17:32- Yes, Mr Wilson?- Well, em... Could I have another upside-down cake?

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Thank you so much.

0:17:37 > 0:17:42- You've got no guts, Wilson. - It wasn't my fault, sir.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47I made it simple for you and all you did was ask for another cake.

0:17:47 > 0:17:51- I wanted another cake. - PIKE PRETENDS TO FIRE

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Cut that out, you stupid boy.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06Mr Mainwaring was complimentary to me. He asked my advice.

0:18:06 > 0:18:13He went to tell Mr Godfrey on Saturday, but as his sisters were there

0:18:13 > 0:18:20he thought the shock would be too much for him. I agree, we should tell him alone.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23We?

0:18:23 > 0:18:27- Pardon? - When WE tell him?- Yes.

0:18:27 > 0:18:34He was grateful for my advice. He's giving us a couple of moments then sending Godfrey out.

0:18:34 > 0:18:40Man, oh man! Can't you see he has left you and me holding the baby?

0:18:40 > 0:18:47That's not fair. It's because you and I are the most senior members of the platoon.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51It'd be more tactful for us to tell him.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53You will back me up, won't you?

0:18:53 > 0:18:58Aagh, alright. I'll manoeuvre the conversation round it for you.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02That's right, you do that... Hello, Mr Godfrey.

0:19:02 > 0:19:08Mr Mainwaring said you might like a cup of tea so I brought one out.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12That's nice. Would you put it on the seat?

0:19:12 > 0:19:19We've got to get this done quickly so start manoeuvering the conversation round.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22Godfrey, son.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26Jones here's got some bad news for you.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29Well, how was that, eh?

0:19:29 > 0:19:34Well, my turn to patrol down to the end of the promenade.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38- 'Ere, don't leave me, Jock. - Man, the war comes first.

0:19:38 > 0:19:43Don't you want tea? When I get back. Bye.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47What's the bad news, Mr Jones?

0:19:47 > 0:19:51Oh, well, we'll talk about that later.

0:19:51 > 0:19:56- Let's sit down and have a nice cup of tea, shall we?- Here.- Yes.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Thank you.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Oh, well, the cup that cheers, eh?

0:20:03 > 0:20:11Now look here, Godfrey, in times like these we are fighting for our lives, for our very existence even,

0:20:11 > 0:20:14and we have to make sacrifices.

0:20:14 > 0:20:20Even Mr Mainwaring has to make sacrifices and a fine man he is!

0:20:20 > 0:20:24I'd put my right hand in the fire for him.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28When I say fire I don't mean a real fire.

0:20:28 > 0:20:35It wouldn't help him if I went round putting my hand in real fires, would it...? No!

0:20:35 > 0:20:41I mean I'm talking... I'm talking meta, metaphor, metaphorisically.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44What was I saying, I've lost the thread?

0:20:44 > 0:20:48About the sacrifice he's making.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50And so he is. He got a paper door!

0:20:50 > 0:20:57Imagine a man of his status sitting in an office with a paper door.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00And what's worse, I tore it.

0:21:00 > 0:21:08It's the same with houses. If a government man came to me and said in a nonchalant manner,

0:21:08 > 0:21:14"I've got to knock your house down for the war effort", I'd let him.

0:21:14 > 0:21:19Oh dear, I'm so sorry. So they're going to knock yours down as well?

0:21:19 > 0:21:23Yes. No. Not mine... You said, "as well"?

0:21:23 > 0:21:27- As well as my place. - You know then?

0:21:27 > 0:21:34Since yesterday. I meant to tell Mr Mainwaring, but I didn't want to upset him.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39Mr Godfrey, what will you do?

0:21:39 > 0:21:45We'll manage. My sisters will stay with friends and we'll store the furniture.

0:21:45 > 0:21:50- And you? - Oh, I'll find a room somewhere.

0:21:50 > 0:21:54You'll do no such thing. You'll stay with me.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56I couldn't do that.

0:21:56 > 0:21:59I'll be glad of your company.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02We'll get on wonderfully well.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06After parade we can go home for a stout.

0:22:06 > 0:22:11- I'm afraid I don't care for it. - Don't you?

0:22:11 > 0:22:19- You could have something else. Anyway we could have cheese on toast.- It gives me indigestion.

0:22:19 > 0:22:24We could listen to the wireless. You do like that, don't you?

0:22:24 > 0:22:30- Oh yes, I do.- We could listen to the Forces Programme, have a laugh.

0:22:30 > 0:22:34Ha, ha, ha. I like the Forces Programme.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38I always listen to the Home Service.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Well we could listen to that.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44We'll be alright, you'll see!

0:22:44 > 0:22:49D... R...

0:22:49 > 0:22:51..U

0:22:55 > 0:23:04Hello, hello, operator, aye. I want a trunk call to London, if you please. Aye, London.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09TELEPHONE RINGS

0:23:20 > 0:23:26Hello? Hello, is that Sir Charles? Yes.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29THE Sir Charles Renfrew McAllister?

0:23:29 > 0:23:33Speaking My names's Frazer,

0:23:33 > 0:23:36James Frazer.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Why ring in the middle of the night?

0:23:39 > 0:23:42Hah! It's quiet and peaceful.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46And it's cheaper! Well what do you want?

0:23:46 > 0:23:51The aerodrome at Walmington, are you the minister in charge of building?

0:23:51 > 0:23:56If you're after a building contract there's nothing doing!

0:23:56 > 0:24:00No, it's not that. Well, what do you want then?

0:24:00 > 0:24:05I just wanted to shift the aerodrome a wee bit.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Are you out of your mind?

0:24:09 > 0:24:16Sir Charles, I was reading in the papers the other day about your recent knighthood

0:24:16 > 0:24:21and it said that you come from a very fine, old Scottish family

0:24:21 > 0:24:26that can trace their origins way back to Robert The Bruce.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30Have you woken me to discuss my ancestors?

0:24:30 > 0:24:32No.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35I woke you up to ask you this,

0:24:36 > 0:24:45could you possibly be the laddie with the same name whose father kept the Fish and Chip shop in Barra?

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Who was expelled from school for cheating?

0:24:49 > 0:24:55Who got that bonny wee thing Maisie MacIntosh into trouble?

0:24:55 > 0:25:01And who the baker sacked for getting his fingers caught in the till?

0:25:05 > 0:25:07That wouldnae be you, would it?

0:25:07 > 0:25:09Certainly not.

0:25:09 > 0:25:15That's all right then. In that case you won't mind me giving the story

0:25:15 > 0:25:19to a certain society magazine, will ye?

0:25:19 > 0:25:26Good! It just so happens that I've got their phone number right here in front of me,

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Charlie-boy!

0:25:34 > 0:25:39Look at poor Mr Godfrey and his sisters. I don't half feel sorry.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43The war can be very cruel you know, Pikey.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48Well, sir, we've nearly finished loading.

0:25:48 > 0:25:53Thank you, Wilson. This is a sad day.

0:25:53 > 0:25:58I wrote to the minister in charge of the building, but I didn't get a reply.

0:25:58 > 0:26:03We're in the hands of bureaucrats, faceless men.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09No more, you'll break the back axle.

0:26:09 > 0:26:15Mr Mainwaring told me to. And I say no, you soppy boy.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17Don't call me soppy.

0:26:17 > 0:26:22I'm gonna have a word with Mainwaring about you.

0:26:22 > 0:26:27My van's full and I want my money!

0:26:27 > 0:26:33- The arrangement was you'd get £2 when the job was finished. - I want it now.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37- Shoot him! You're entitled to.- Be quiet, Pike.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Hold on!

0:26:43 > 0:26:46- Hold on!- What is it, Frazer?

0:26:46 > 0:26:51This is Mr Blackwell from the Town Hall. They're moving the aerodrome.

0:26:51 > 0:26:55So Mr Godfrey won't have to leave his home!

0:26:55 > 0:27:02- This is good news!- I can listen to the Forces Programme! I'm going to tell him.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05They're moving the aerodrome 200 yards.

0:27:05 > 0:27:10- The cottage won't be in the middle? - Just on the edge!

0:27:10 > 0:27:13Right, unload the van, men.

0:27:13 > 0:27:18- 'Ere, what about my two quid? - The job has not been done!

0:27:18 > 0:27:21You chiseller. I WANT my two quid!

0:27:21 > 0:27:27- Do you mind not raising your voice? - I want MY MONEY!- Come away, Wilson.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35Nice, isn't it, sir!

0:27:35 > 0:27:42Different to the last time we had tea with you when Mainwaring tried to tell you the news!

0:27:42 > 0:27:47It must have been my letter to the minister that did it.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50- No doubt about it. - What was his name?

0:27:50 > 0:27:58Sir Charles Renfrew McAllister. They say he can trace his ancestors back to Robert The Bruce.

0:27:58 > 0:28:04I'm very grateful, Mr Mainwaring. Our peaceful world could have ended.
