0:00:03 > 0:00:07NEWSREEL: 'The grain harvest has been gathered over recent weeks,
0:00:07 > 0:00:12'and once again, it is our good fortune to make thanksgiving for a bountiful crop.
0:00:12 > 0:00:17'Helpers have come forward to assist in bringing the harvest home.
0:00:17 > 0:00:23'In addition, there's been the work of Italian prisoners, or perhaps I should say, "collaborators".
0:00:23 > 0:00:27'But there will be need of other volunteer hands to make a 100% job of it.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29'What about you?'
0:01:17 > 0:01:20SHE PANTS
0:01:43 > 0:01:44Bea? Are you OK?
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- I'm fine.- No, you're not. Look at you, you're shaking.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49I think it was the rabbit stew!
0:01:49 > 0:01:52Well, no-one else got sick.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Maybe you should rest today. I could ask Lady Hoxley.
0:01:55 > 0:02:00No! She's already looking for an excuse to send us home. Anyway, there's no need, I can work.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02- Don't be silly. - I just needed to be sick.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Really, I feel much better now. Come on.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10No-one else was there, I couldn't resist.
0:02:10 > 0:02:16- Oh, and which room was this?- The ballroom. Right, so I can see myself
0:02:16 > 0:02:21in the big, long mirror opposite, and I've got the drapes wrapped around me like an exotic velvet ball gown!
0:02:21 > 0:02:26- I start imagining that I'm Scarlett O'Hara.- Is that from John?
0:02:26 > 0:02:30You know, remember the dance scene? I'm swishing about to the music in my head,
0:02:30 > 0:02:32then suddenly, I hear a voice next to me...
0:02:32 > 0:02:36POSH ACCENT: "Ooh! What on earth do you think you're doing?!"
0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Lady Hoxley?- How long had she been standing there?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40Long enough!
0:02:40 > 0:02:43THEY ALL LAUGH
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- How is he?- Homesick. Hey, have you heard from Harry yet?
0:02:47 > 0:02:49< I would've died on the spot!
0:02:49 > 0:02:51< What did you say to her?
0:02:51 > 0:02:53< Well, what could I say?
0:02:53 > 0:02:54"Well, fiddle-dee-dee!
0:02:54 > 0:02:58I appear to have wandered into a fantasy of my own creation"(!)
0:02:58 > 0:03:01THEY ALL LAUGH
0:03:01 > 0:03:07Late last night, the Condover airfield was hit in a bombing raid.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11That's less than 20 miles away.
0:03:11 > 0:03:16This was a properly camouflaged airfield.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19How did the Germans know to target it?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22They got my telegram, then(!)
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Someone is tipping off the enemy.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Make no mistake, these are dangerous times.
0:03:28 > 0:03:34If you think you see anyone suspicious, I want you to report it directly to me.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37And who do we report HIM to?
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Be vigilant.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44The enemy could be closer than you think...
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Dismissed.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Where are you going?
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Egg duty.- Jammy!- Have fun, girls!
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Esther...!
0:03:57 > 0:04:00A word, please.
0:04:00 > 0:04:06- You're not going to work in that, are you? You'll die of heatstroke. - I'm just a bit chilly.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10- Right, that is it. I am requesting that you take sick leave.- No, don't. I told you, I want to work.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15- You're coming down with something. - Anyone else think Tucker's talents are wasted here?
0:04:15 > 0:04:19He should be advising Churchill, the war would be over in a week.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23- What's up?- Bea's a bit under the weather today, Billy.
0:04:23 > 0:04:30- If you're not well you should rest. Get your strength back.- Would everybody stop fussing? I'm fine!
0:04:33 > 0:04:36How often do you post the women's letters?
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Twice a week. I-I've got some to go off today.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42Good, I want you to read them first.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44What? I can't do that!
0:04:44 > 0:04:47From now on, you're to read everything coming in and out.
0:04:47 > 0:04:52- But what right do we have? - You heard what I said, people's lives are at stake.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54That has nothing to do with my girls! They're patriots!
0:04:54 > 0:05:00Don't be naive, Esther. A sympathiser doesn't have horns and a tail.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03They fit in, they're popular. Likeable, even.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05They calculate everything to avoid suspicion.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Read the letters.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14If you find anything - anything at all -
0:05:14 > 0:05:16you bring it to me.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Is that understood?
0:05:23 > 0:05:27Well, erm... What do I do if they notice their mail's been tampered with?
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Not my problem.
0:05:34 > 0:05:39Morning, Sarge. Er, just... Just milking the cows.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Nice day for it.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46(Can I rely on you?)
0:05:46 > 0:05:47(Yeah.)
0:05:54 > 0:05:57What's he on about?
0:05:57 > 0:05:58Nothing.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02And that bucket's filthy!
0:06:16 > 0:06:20- Hello.- Just thought I'd see how you were getting on.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- Make sure you're earning your keep. Gosh, you've caught the sun.- Mm.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28- It's not painful, is it? - Oh, a bit...but I'm tough. - I'm sure you are.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Personally can't stand sunburn.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36Old army trick though, soak a rag in water and vinegar and then dab it all over the body.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- Oh, lovely(!) Eau de Chip Shop! - Don't knock it, it's all the rage in Paris!
0:06:40 > 0:06:44BOMBERS SCREAM OVERHEAD
0:06:44 > 0:06:47HORSE WHINNIES IN FRIGHT
0:06:49 > 0:06:50Are you all right?
0:06:50 > 0:06:56- Oh, I'm fine. I haven't fallen off my horse since I was a child. - It was my fault, I distracted you.
0:06:56 > 0:06:57Not at all, it's this blasted leg.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- I can't hold on properly. - Lord Hoxley?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- I'm fine, really. It's just my pride that's hurt. - No, no, no, look, he's limping.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Stay there, stay there. Shh, Caesar, Caesar...
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Ceasar, it's OK. It's OK, boy. It's OK.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Oh... Oh, gosh.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25Come on, boy. Come with me...
0:07:29 > 0:07:32What is it?
0:07:33 > 0:07:39I'm glad you asked me that, because one day, my wisdom will serve you well.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42That, my lad, is carrot whiskey.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46- Carrot whiskey? - Lesson number one - if you find yourself with too many carrots
0:07:46 > 0:07:49and not enough gobs to chew 'em, don't waste 'em, ferment 'em.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53Not just a hat stand, I think you'll find!
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Oh...!
0:07:56 > 0:08:01Oh...! I've been waiting two weeks for this.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04It could probably do with a bit longer but, er...
0:08:04 > 0:08:07I'm not a patient man! HE CHUCKLES
0:08:07 > 0:08:08The moment of truth!
0:08:12 > 0:08:15HE CHOKES IT BACK
0:08:15 > 0:08:20- Cor! That'll put hairs on your chest! - Yeah?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22You've got to grow 'em first!
0:08:22 > 0:08:27Now, I've got two full buckets in the barn.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31- I think I can flog 'em, but we're gonna need some bottles.- Flog it?
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Who's gonna buy carrot whiskey?
0:08:33 > 0:08:35HE CHUCKLES
0:09:04 > 0:09:09Bea... Bea, there's easier work you can do, you know.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Are you gonna help me, or what?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- Bea, slow down.- No.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- What's got in to you today?- Nothing!
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Can you just leave me alone?
0:09:29 > 0:09:30What's going on, Bea?
0:09:30 > 0:09:34Has something happened?
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Look, talk to me!
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- I can't. You'll hate me. - I could never hate you!
0:09:40 > 0:09:42I'm pregnant.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47What?!
0:09:47 > 0:09:49How can you be?! Did somebody force you?
0:09:51 > 0:09:55- It was that GI from the dance. - Him?!
0:09:55 > 0:09:59But when? You can't possibly have seen him after...!
0:09:59 > 0:10:02You're starting to show already! It happened that night, didn't it?
0:10:02 > 0:10:07You'd only known him five minutes, and you let him sweet talk you into going off alone!
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- What did you think was gonna happen? - Stop it!- You stupid girl!
0:10:10 > 0:10:13I'm sorry, Annie. I'm so sorry.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Please. You have to help me.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Well, of course I'll help you!
0:10:18 > 0:10:23I mean, I've tried lifting heavy things but nothing works.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25You have to help me get rid of it, Annie.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34I heard you took a fall.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36That's not like you.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Are you all right?
0:10:42 > 0:10:44It was nothing.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Haven't you called Benedict?
0:10:46 > 0:10:48- No.- Why on earth not?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Because I know what I'm doing.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54Don't be ridiculous, you need a vet.
0:10:54 > 0:10:59Please, don't call him. Ellen! The man's a butcher!
0:11:07 > 0:11:12- How can you even think of doing such a thing?- I've got no choice! - No, I won't let you.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15When they find out, they'll send me home. Dad'll kill me!
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- That is an innocent child! You've no right to end its life! - What about my life?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Don't take it out on me just cos you can't have a baby...
0:11:23 > 0:11:26SHE SOBS
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Bea...
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Bea, I'm sorry...!
0:11:34 > 0:11:36I'm afraid it's not good news.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39There's a severe fracture to the cannon bone. Worst place.
0:11:39 > 0:11:44- There's nothing we can do.- It's a shame, he was a handsome horse.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46- Wait a minute!- Thank you, Benedict.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51- Would you mind dealing with it? - Of course.- Wait a minute! Don't I get a say in this?
0:11:51 > 0:11:55If we can take the weight off his leg, surely there's a chance it'll heal.
0:11:55 > 0:12:00- And how, pray tell, do you propose to do that? - By suspending him. In a sling.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04I've seen it done. In the Great War, a general's horse broke its leg in the same place
0:12:04 > 0:12:07and they suspended it, and then it made a full recovery.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10No doubt the General's horse was young and fighting fit.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13I admit, Caeser is a year or two older, but he's in peak condition.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17To keep such a horse inactive and in pain would be inhumane.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21And impractical. Where were you thinking of dangling him from, Lawrence?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24A tree? A bridge perhaps?
0:12:24 > 0:12:29No, I'm sorry, it's very unfortunate, but Caesar simply has to go.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- HE MUTTERS: - You should shoot me along with it! - What?
0:12:32 > 0:12:36I said, perhaps you should shoot me along with it! I've got a bad leg, I'm getting on.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41I'm sorry, but I'd like you to go.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43NOW, please!
0:12:51 > 0:12:53You can't be serious about this.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58SHE SPLUTTERS
0:14:58 > 0:15:01MEN SPEAK IN ITALIAN
0:15:04 > 0:15:05Nancy...
0:15:05 > 0:15:07Watch yourself.
0:15:12 > 0:15:13You haven't seen Bea, have you?
0:15:13 > 0:15:18- Not since earlier. Have you had a row or something?- Well, yes, but it's nothing serious.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22It's just Bea being impossible, you know?
0:15:28 > 0:15:33- Not just a hat stand, I think you'll find! - Ah! Good lad! You're learning fast!
0:15:43 > 0:15:47Sort through them, see if any of 'em fit.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Lesson number two -
0:15:50 > 0:15:53you never know when you might need a cork.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57Hello, there.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05Aw, what's happened to you, then? Eh?
0:16:05 > 0:16:08SCRAPING
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Er, you need a hand, sir?
0:16:12 > 0:16:14- Er, Lawrence. Please.- Yes, sir.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Thank you.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Just, er... That's it, just in here.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29What's it for?
0:16:29 > 0:16:33- You wouldn't believe me if I told you.- Try me.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59BEA SOBS NEARBY
0:17:04 > 0:17:07SOBBING CONTINUES
0:17:07 > 0:17:10SHE WHIMPERS Bea?
0:17:13 > 0:17:16That's...it.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19How... How big is the horse?
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Yes, you're right.
0:17:21 > 0:17:26It needs to be a little higher, doesn't it? Well, maybe if we... No.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30- Sir, could we just use...?- Just a second, I need to concentrate.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32If we built a scaffold...
0:17:32 > 0:17:36- then maybe... No, see, that'll just take too much time. - No, but if we use...
0:17:36 > 0:17:41What we need to do is find something on the farm that we can use...somehow.
0:17:41 > 0:17:46We've got the scaffold with the winch in it for cleaning the well, so if we could extend the legs,
0:17:46 > 0:17:51then maybe we could make a, sort of, hammock and suspend him.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- What do you do in peacetime, Joyce? - Oh, I'm a hairdresser.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- She's up there. - Billy, I'd rather you didn't.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03- I just want to see her.- Please, I'd like to talk to her alone.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10And we have...
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Fish paste! Anyone for fish paste?
0:18:13 > 0:18:18And this one is... What do you know? Fish paste.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22- You! No talking!- Esther?
0:18:22 > 0:18:24What are you doing out here?
0:18:24 > 0:18:28I... I-I-I just wanted to bring this.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32It's such a hot day. I don't want no-one getting dehydrated.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35- Oh, thanks.- Yeah.- I'll see to it.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47BEA VOMITS
0:18:47 > 0:18:49There you are... That's it...
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Do you think I've hurt the baby?
0:18:52 > 0:18:53I hope not.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Annie, what have I done?
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Bea. Bea, look at me. Look at me!
0:19:00 > 0:19:02I've been so stupid, I'm sorry.
0:19:02 > 0:19:03No.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16- What I said about you... - It doesn't matter any more.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21What's important is what we do now.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25This GI of yours, what's his name?
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Why? What are you gonna do?
0:19:27 > 0:19:30I just want to talk to him.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34- It's no use, I've tried.- What?
0:19:34 > 0:19:37I've been to the barracks. He won't see me.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40The cheek!
0:19:40 > 0:19:45Right, well, I'll make him see me, even if I have to chain myself to them gates!
0:19:52 > 0:19:54THE MEN LAUGH
0:19:54 > 0:19:57Stand up! Stand up! Yes, you!
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I'm talking to you!
0:20:00 > 0:20:05You like laughing? Huh? What were you laughing about before?
0:20:05 > 0:20:07With the English woman?
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- Answer me! - HE SHOUTS IN ITALIAN
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- What's he saying?- Niente! Niente! - Speak English!
0:20:14 > 0:20:17He speak no English. Only Italian.
0:20:17 > 0:20:18Niente!
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Ow! Oh, damn! - Do you want me to take a look, sir?
0:20:35 > 0:20:39No, no, it's all right, thank you. I think I've got it.
0:20:39 > 0:20:44Do you mind my asking...well, why you're going to all this trouble?
0:20:44 > 0:20:50- Why? Don't you think he's worth it? - No, of course I do. It's just, well, people like you don't normally...
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Don't normally get their hands splintered?
0:20:53 > 0:20:55- Yeah. No offence.- None taken.
0:20:55 > 0:21:01My father kept horses. When I was 15, I helped him birth a colt.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05As a reward, it was given to me. He was so handsome.
0:21:05 > 0:21:10Headstrong. But more than anything, he was special because he was mine, my first horse.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14You never forget the freedom of riding your first horse. Never.
0:21:19 > 0:21:26- You know, we are going to have to do more to support this.- What happened to him? Your first horse?
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Oh, the Great War.
0:21:28 > 0:21:33In those days, the army could seize civilian horses to use in the cavalry.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35When they came for him, I tried to hide him.
0:21:35 > 0:21:40I foolishly thought that if they took the others, they'd spare this one. They found us, of course.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47I had to watch them lead him away, knowing that he was destined to charge into a hail of bullets.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Pointless.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Anyway, Caesar rather reminds me of him.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57And I'll be damned if I'm going to let him go so easily.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Nancy speaks Italian.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07- You've heard her? - Oh, she's too clever for that.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10But not clever enough because her secret's out.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Just a question of proving it.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20You'd better look at this then.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Were you planning on showing me?
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Of course I was. Look, she's a good girl.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37When is it a crime to speak Italian?
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Since they declared war on us.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40I knew it.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44I knew there was something about that girl that couldn't be trusted.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48Thank you, Esther.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00- So, Joyce, tell me, where are you from?- I'm from Coventry.
0:23:01 > 0:23:06Oh, really? I say, you weren't there when the...?
0:23:06 > 0:23:08No. I was in Birmingham visiting my husband.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Thank goodness.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14But my parents. They were both in the house when the...
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Well, it's gone now.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Everything's gone.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I'm so sorry.
0:23:23 > 0:23:28Now I've just got me husband to worry about. He's in the RAF.
0:23:28 > 0:23:29All you can do is pray.
0:23:31 > 0:23:36I know he's doing his duty and I take comfort in that, I do. It's just...
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Well, he's all I've got.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Perhaps God will take that into account.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49I don't know how you cope.
0:23:49 > 0:23:54Work hard, you laugh when you can and...
0:23:54 > 0:23:58Don't dwell on things you can't change.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Annie. Where you off to?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Look, tell your father he can drop my pay if he wants.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13- I just need an hour.- Listen, I don't care about that. Listen, listen.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15If Bea's in some kind of trouble I want to help.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18She's fine. This is family business. Leave it alone. Please.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38You'd better mind yourself back there. He might kick.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Do you think it's going to be strong enough?
0:24:42 > 0:24:44There's only one way to find out.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Ready? 1, 2, 3. Up!
0:24:53 > 0:24:55HORSE WHINNIES
0:25:07 > 0:25:11He's off the ground! He's off the ground!
0:25:16 > 0:25:20We've done it. We've done it.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Do you even know what you're looking for?
0:25:27 > 0:25:30- Please, just stay out of my way.- But this isn't right, it isn't right.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Be quiet.
0:25:38 > 0:25:43Will you just promise me you won't accuse her of anything, not yet?
0:25:43 > 0:25:45You get that letter translated at least?
0:25:45 > 0:25:47Of course I'll get it translated.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49In the meantime I want you to watch her every move.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52And don't let her go to town.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54I don't want her talking to outsiders.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57How am I supposed to keep her here? She's not a prisoner!
0:25:57 > 0:26:02Just do it, Esther. If she's a sympathiser she's a risk to us all.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27Excuse me. Excuse me! I'm looking for a GI
0:26:27 > 0:26:32- by the name of Carl Gillespie. - Are you here on official business?
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Well, no, but it's important I speak with him.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00I can handle a broad bein' ugly if she's got a good caboose.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01You slay me, Gillespie.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05I mean, I like a nice rack, but it makes no difference from behind though, right?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Let's get a beer.
0:27:10 > 0:27:15- Did you follow me here? - If you won't tell me what's going on with Bea I'll find out for myself.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17I've told you, this isn't any of your concern.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19You're not the only one who cares about her.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22I know that. But I'd rather handle this on my own.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23Handle what?
0:27:23 > 0:27:27It's the Yank from the dance, isn't it? He's the reason Bea's so upset.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29They won't tell me where he is.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37It's a rare English delicacy. Takes years to ferment.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40Better than warm beer?
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Of course it is! In the Savoy, they charge five shillings a glass.
0:27:43 > 0:27:48But for you gents, I'm willing to part with the whole bottle for four.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52You won't get a better price than that anywhere else in the world.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00It's a pleasure doing business with you.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04- Cheers.- And don't let me catch you in here again!
0:28:07 > 0:28:11How did you do? Good lad!
0:28:11 > 0:28:13I knew you'd shift 'em.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17Lesson number three - always remunerate the workers.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21No no, you don't have to say anything.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23You've earned it. Off you go.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36All right, son? Annie! What're you doing here?
0:28:36 > 0:28:38I could ask you the same question, Dad.
0:28:40 > 0:28:45So, I have this uncle who works at MGM.
0:28:45 > 0:28:46In Hollywood?
0:28:46 > 0:28:47Sure.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50I'll give him a call about you.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54You kinda remind me of a young Betty Grable.
0:28:54 > 0:28:55Isn't that what you said to our Bea?
0:28:55 > 0:28:59Oh, no, it was Greer Garson she reminded you of.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01I don't know what she's talking about.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05- I'm talking about my sister. - You Yanks are all the same.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Thanks a lot.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16- Which one was your sister? - About three months ago.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18The dance at the Manor House.
0:29:18 > 0:29:19Oh, yeah.
0:29:19 > 0:29:22Yeah, I remember.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26So, what do you want?
0:29:26 > 0:29:28I want to talk. In private.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31Well, that's too bad cos I'm gonna sit here and finish my drink.
0:29:33 > 0:29:37- Look please, it's important. - Either spit it out or beat it.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- Hey, how about I shove that drink right up...- Billy. I can handle it!
0:29:40 > 0:29:45Oh, I get it. Billy here's all bent outta shape cos he's sweet on your sister.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50Am I right, farm boy?
0:29:50 > 0:29:53I bet a cute girl like that wouldn't give you a second glance.
0:29:53 > 0:29:57I can't say I blame her.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Fine, if you won't go outside...
0:30:04 > 0:30:08Are you kidding me? Any one of these guys could be the father.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10You mean she's...
0:30:13 > 0:30:15You son of a...
0:30:16 > 0:30:18SHOUTING
0:30:27 > 0:30:31- What are you and Finch up to? Answer me!- Nothing. I swear.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34You won't get into trouble.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36Just tell me what Finch is selling.
0:30:36 > 0:30:37You're hurting me!
0:30:37 > 0:30:39ANGRY SHOUTING
0:30:41 > 0:30:44SHARP WHISTLE
0:30:49 > 0:30:50I'll kill you!
0:30:50 > 0:30:52BANGING AND SMASHING
0:30:55 > 0:31:01That's it! Break it up! Everybody out. That's enough. Outside.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05He's using this grotesque contraption without the slightest thought for our concerns.
0:31:05 > 0:31:10'But what can I do? Lord Hoxley doesn't want me anywhere near the beast.
0:31:10 > 0:31:14'Am I the only one who cares for this animal's welfare? Something must be done.'
0:31:14 > 0:31:17But if it's Lord Hoxley's horse...
0:31:17 > 0:31:19'He doesn't own this property or anything on it.'
0:31:19 > 0:31:21The decision is mine.
0:31:21 > 0:31:26Now, are you going to do what you're paid for or am I going to have to shoot the horse myself?
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Is this how you represent your country?
0:31:29 > 0:31:33Brawling with American servicemen in pubs. Have you no self respect?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36The Americans came here to help defend us.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Is this how you repay them?
0:31:38 > 0:31:40It won't happen again. Can I go now?
0:31:40 > 0:31:43You will stand here until I've finished what I have to say!
0:31:43 > 0:31:48Tucker, I respect what you do with the war effort and that, but I don't answer to you and I never will.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Now, if you'll excuse me.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53I see you've learnt your attitude from your father.
0:31:53 > 0:31:57He doesn't seem to think he has to answer to anyone either.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Not even the law.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02Perhaps I should have him investigated.
0:32:02 > 0:32:05Black market trading is a serious offence.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12- What are you doing? - That's not your concern.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Wait, wait. Does Lord Hoxley know you're here?
0:32:14 > 0:32:17I received instructions from Lady Hoxley. Stand aside.
0:32:17 > 0:32:21- No! I won't let you shoot that horse. - I'm afraid you have no choice.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22Please!
0:32:34 > 0:32:38Lord Hoxley! Come quickly!
0:32:48 > 0:32:51GUNSHOT
0:33:03 > 0:33:05I'd keep running if I was you!
0:33:05 > 0:33:10GUNSHOT AND LAUGHTER
0:33:17 > 0:33:20- I think Sergeant Tucker's on to us. - Eh? How do you mean?
0:33:20 > 0:33:22He suspects us for definite.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Well, suspecting ain't knowing.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28That's lesson number 4 by the way.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32RATTLING You hear that?
0:33:32 > 0:33:35That is the sound of the little man winning.
0:33:35 > 0:33:41Remember that. You see, there's always a big man there ready to tell the little man what to do.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45You couldn't tidy around could you? You made a right mess with that whisky.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- Where'd you get hold of that? - I found it in the barn.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55You used that for the whisky?
0:33:55 > 0:33:58I use that for me liquid fertiliser.
0:33:58 > 0:34:02You don't think... Well, it wouldn't kill anybody.
0:34:02 > 0:34:03Would it?
0:34:03 > 0:34:06No, course it wouldn't. Would it?
0:34:06 > 0:34:10No, no, no. Well, it might just make people a bit sick.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12But there's no harm in that, is there?
0:34:18 > 0:34:19Bea.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21What happened to you?
0:34:21 > 0:34:26- I met Cal.- He hit you? - Well, it was an accident really. He was trying to get to Billy.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- What was Billy doing there? - Look, it's a long story.
0:34:29 > 0:34:34- The important thing is that Cal knows.- And?
0:34:34 > 0:34:37I'm sorry, Bea.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41Look, if it's any consolation you're better off without him.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43Does that mean Billy knows too?
0:34:50 > 0:34:51I hope you're proud of yourself.
0:34:51 > 0:34:57- You scared the living daylights out of that poor man. He'll never set foot on this land again.- Good.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00Oh, don't be absurd, Lawrence. What about the farm?
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Who's going to take care of the animals? You?
0:35:02 > 0:35:05Well, why not? I know a lot more than you give me credit for.
0:35:05 > 0:35:09Then you should know there's no room for sentimentality.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11But then that's you in a nutshell, isn't it?
0:35:11 > 0:35:15You'd rather prolong a poor animal's suffering than do the decent thing.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18You're a coward, Lawrence.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20But we both know that, don't we?
0:35:22 > 0:35:25I should have known you weren't man enough for the job.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40He defended your honour.
0:35:42 > 0:35:43Hello.
0:35:43 > 0:35:47- Billy.- Bea, where are those potatoes? They need boiling.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49I'll take them.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58Nancy, can I talk to you a sec?
0:35:58 > 0:36:00Me? Sure.
0:36:00 > 0:36:01Can we go for a walk, please?
0:36:41 > 0:36:44He wants you to spy on me? Why?
0:36:44 > 0:36:47Wouldn't say. Look, I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50Tucker's not been right in the head since the last war.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54He don't trust anyone. But I just thought you should know.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56Yeah, thanks, Billy.
0:36:58 > 0:37:02Hey, Lord Hoxley said that you helped him save his horse today.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05Oh, I didn't do much. It was mostly him, really.
0:37:05 > 0:37:06That's not what he said.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08What did he say?
0:37:08 > 0:37:11He said he couldn't have done it without you.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13GUNSHOT
0:37:22 > 0:37:23SHE SOBS
0:37:23 > 0:37:26Lawrence. Lawrence!
0:37:26 > 0:37:29How could you?
0:37:29 > 0:37:31What are you doing here?
0:37:31 > 0:37:33You have no right to be here.
0:37:33 > 0:37:34Either of you!
0:37:52 > 0:37:54Sergeant Tucker.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56Hurry up!
0:38:00 > 0:38:02- That's all of them?- Every last one.
0:38:04 > 0:38:07- Is he following us?- No.
0:38:10 > 0:38:11Liquorice?
0:38:16 > 0:38:18Enjoy your walk?
0:38:18 > 0:38:20- Where've were you been? - Just in the fields. Why?
0:38:20 > 0:38:23When I ask you to peel potatoes I don't expect you to run off.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26I didn't run off. I just went for a walk.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28Well, in future I would appreciate being told.
0:38:28 > 0:38:33Fine. I'll do the potatoes now if you want.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36It's too late. I've done them myself.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50I'm sorry.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52I know you were fond of that horse.
0:38:58 > 0:39:02It would have worked. Keeping the weight off his leg.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05I'm sure it would have worked.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08Then why on earth did you shoot him, dear?
0:39:11 > 0:39:14Seems you're an even worse coward than I thought.
0:39:29 > 0:39:34He had Billy pummelling from the front, me kicking up the backside
0:39:34 > 0:39:37and Martin choking him from behind.
0:39:37 > 0:39:42He's only nine-years-old and fighting in pubs already. I suppose I should scold him.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Come on. Who was it? Who's been going through my things?
0:39:44 > 0:39:46What are you talking about?
0:39:46 > 0:39:49My books, my clothes, they've all been tampered with.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Well, is there anything missing?
0:39:51 > 0:39:54That's not the point. I want to know who's responsible.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57- It was you, wasn't it? - I'm not interested in your stuff.
0:39:57 > 0:40:02Look, I've seen the way you look at my clothes. What did you do, try them all on or something?
0:40:02 > 0:40:05Nancy, I wouldn't touch anything of yours if my life depended on it.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07You stink of vinegar.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09Stop it!
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Stop that! I said enough!
0:40:11 > 0:40:16That's it, Nancy. There's no more trips into town until I say otherwise.
0:40:16 > 0:40:20- Me? What about her?- No arguments. You'll do as you're told.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23That's not fair. Someone's been going through my private things.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25That's no excuse to be fighting.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27But it's OK for Annie and Martin to fight?
0:40:27 > 0:40:28You should make up your mind.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32You mind your tongue or you'll miss the film tonight as well.
0:40:38 > 0:40:41All that money.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44I held it in my hands for just a few short hours.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47There's a cruel God up there.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49Well, look on the bright side, Dad.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52At least nobody drank the stuff.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Hang on, there's only 11 bottles there.
0:40:59 > 0:41:00MARTIN GIGGLES
0:41:00 > 0:41:01Martin?
0:41:04 > 0:41:06HE GROANS
0:41:06 > 0:41:08HE PASSES WIND
0:41:11 > 0:41:12LAUGHTER
0:41:12 > 0:41:15Martin, what are you like, eh?
0:41:18 > 0:41:20I'm looking for Annie.
0:41:20 > 0:41:25- I need to talk to her.- The girls are all up at the Manor House.
0:41:34 > 0:41:38'The interests of our King and Queen and the welfare of their people
0:41:38 > 0:41:39'is a very real thing.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42'The wellbeing of the poorest among us is a matter of concern
0:41:42 > 0:41:43'to the whole Royal family.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47'Her Majesty's made a visit to the LCC housing estate on Hackney Marshes
0:41:47 > 0:41:50'and, of course, it was a great day for the residents.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52'The King inspected one of the aircraft factories
0:41:52 > 0:41:58'and met some of the men working to make Britain supreme in the air.'
0:42:15 > 0:42:17Are you not watching the film?
0:42:17 > 0:42:19I don't really feel like it.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25Do you ever feel like you're being punished for something, but you don't know what?
