0:00:03 > 0:00:08This programme contains strong language
0:01:26 > 0:01:29There can be no greater sacrifice
0:01:29 > 0:01:33than to willingly give your life for king and country.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38We do not come to mourn
0:01:38 > 0:01:41but to rejoice in the devotion of these men.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Their bodies lie here
0:01:45 > 0:01:49but their souls will be gathered unto God
0:01:49 > 0:01:51and they will shine in glory,
0:01:51 > 0:01:55their names recorded for all eternity.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58So let us rejoice
0:01:58 > 0:01:59and let us pray.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21There's no rejoicing in good men gone down
0:02:21 > 0:02:23but we're still standing.
0:02:24 > 0:02:25Why?
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Because we're the Lucky 13.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Now, we came out here together.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33We stay together and we stay alive.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Now that's the way it's going to be.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Yes?
0:02:39 > 0:02:41- ALL:- Yes, Dad.- Yes?
0:02:41 > 0:02:42We'll always be 13.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45Now, let's bow our heads
0:02:45 > 0:02:48for these lads that didn't have our luck.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11'Are we making a fuss about this birthday?'
0:03:11 > 0:03:13'She says she doesn't want a fuss.'
0:03:13 > 0:03:14I've arranged for a cake.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Very wise.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18And it would be nice if you could say a few words to her today.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Just to let her know how important she is here,
0:03:21 > 0:03:22how highly she's valued.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27There's nothing like being prompted into spontaneous well-wishing.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28- I'm not.- You are.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31You prompt me quite a lot on the subject of Sister Quayle.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33In fact, you appear to be constantly apologising
0:03:33 > 0:03:36that it was you who got my recommendation for matron
0:03:36 > 0:03:37- and not her.- Not at all.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39I am simply reminding you
0:03:39 > 0:03:41that people like to know when they're appreciated.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Very well.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45I shall start as I mean to go on.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Sister Livesey, you're very much appreciated.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Thank you.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55All being well, you shall all be leaving us today.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Yes, Sir. Sister's got us all better.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01For the second time, I hear.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Sir. Fell off me bike, Sir, back at home
0:04:03 > 0:04:05and Sister patched me up in the hospital.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07He says it was me.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11But I don't know, I think he just wants special treatment.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13All right, go ahead. Get yourself some breakfast.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Tell the cooks I said double bacon for you all.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17Oh, thanks, Sister. Sir.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21I feel rather protective.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22Don't we all.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25LAUGHTER AND CHATTER
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Do you have free time this afternoon?
0:04:33 > 0:04:34We all do.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Do you have plans?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41I thought I might tidy the tent, maybe do some darning.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50Would you meet me?
0:04:57 > 0:04:58(Yes.)
0:05:01 > 0:05:02(Where?)
0:05:04 > 0:05:07I hadn't really thought much beyond asking the question!
0:05:09 > 0:05:11The woods?
0:05:11 > 0:05:13About two?
0:05:16 > 0:05:20All right, lad, that's yours. There you go.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Very good eggs!
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Talking a good game back there, Dad.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29Talking plain fact.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33What you doing about this medical?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36We'll be all right.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37I know we will.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39It's not us I'm worried about, it's you.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41- There you go.- Thank you.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Just some of that, please.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Did you find out who's doing it?
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Which doctor is signing us out? - Sister said it were a new one.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- What new one? - I don't know, Raymond, a new doctor!
0:05:54 > 0:05:56So long as he doesn't listen to your chest.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58Eh!
0:06:00 > 0:06:02I hope you're keeping your gob shut.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04No, I'm telling everyone,
0:06:04 > 0:06:07because what I really want is them all going to pieces,
0:06:07 > 0:06:10which they will, by the way, if you get caught out.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12It'll be all right.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Now, you're forgetting something.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16I'm blessed, me!
0:06:16 > 0:06:19I'm charmed, we all are.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22We're the Lucky 13.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23I'll be all right.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Have a bit of faith, Peacock.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37THEY YELL AND LAUGH
0:06:37 > 0:06:39I'm not getting involved in this!
0:06:46 > 0:06:48I could bloody kiss you for this, Tom.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Please don't.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52God knows why you want to give up your pass
0:06:52 > 0:06:53but I'm not complaining.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57I leave a broken man, spirit diminished, full of despair
0:06:57 > 0:07:00but I shall return with renewed optimism and vigour.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Most likely you'll return with a dose of the pox.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05You'll be sweating mercury for weeks.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08It is a small price to pay.
0:07:08 > 0:07:09What are you going to do?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Tidy the tent...
0:07:11 > 0:07:12Do some darning.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Go on, you're wasting precious moments. Piss off!
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Why Captain Gillan has seen fit to give you his two o'clock pass
0:07:38 > 0:07:40is beyond my comprehension.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44You'll be back by seven and I do not want another incident,
0:07:44 > 0:07:46not like last time.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Leave the absinthe well alone.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49Yes, Sir.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Thank you.
0:07:56 > 0:07:57What is it?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Someone has connections on high.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13I wonder...
0:08:13 > 0:08:16what ward you might be going to!
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Let me guess.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19I don't know what you mean.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21He likes you too.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22Really? Do you think so?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25No, he doesn't! He never even looks at me.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27And we're not supposed to get sweet on any of the boys.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29There's a lot of things we're not supposed to do.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Do you really think he might like me?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- Are you prattling, Marshall? - No, Matron.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38Your uniform is incorrect. How many times do I have to tell you?
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Do you know a Mr Elliot Vincent?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50I do, Matron.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51Why?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53As this has come from headquarters
0:08:53 > 0:08:55it makes it not so much a request as a command.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Clearly Mr Vincent has some influence.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01He's insisted that you meet him in town today.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Is he a relative?- Yes.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Someone who could help with your family situation,
0:09:07 > 0:09:09with regards to your child?
0:09:09 > 0:09:10Potentially.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14If you're at the entrance by two o'clock
0:09:14 > 0:09:15there may be a lift for you.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31ANIMATED CHATTER
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Put your cards down, Charlie.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Dad.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Two reds.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44THEY GROAN
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Will you stop helping him?
0:09:45 > 0:09:47You stop fleecing him.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Eh, up! Eh, up!
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Morning!- ALL: Morning, Nurse.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Here, Nurse, seeing as it's our last day,
0:09:56 > 0:09:58tell us your first name.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- I'm not really supposed to... - I'm Raymond.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04I know these lot call me Peacock being as I'm so handsome
0:10:04 > 0:10:06but my given name's Raymond.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08That means king of the world, that.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12Ray - king, mond - world.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15So what's your name, then?
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Flora.
0:10:16 > 0:10:17That means flower.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20That's a perfect name for you, that.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Don't you reckon, Charlie?
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Don't you reckon Nurse's name's perfect for her?
0:10:26 > 0:10:27Yeah, I suppose.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Gosh, look at all these beds. I must get on.
0:10:37 > 0:10:38Take no notice, Charlie.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Where's this MO then, Sister?
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Get off!- War'll be over by the time he turns up.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45You've got the forms. Can't you just...?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47No, I can't.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50You just want to keep us here longer.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Admit it, you're going to miss us.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Oh, I am. Especially you.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56I'll miss you like a hole in the head!
0:10:57 > 0:10:58You love me really.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01No, Private Deeley, YOU love you really.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05I can't apologise enough, I got completely lost.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Captain Osberton.- Do forgive me for keeping you waiting, chaps.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10All of you have had trench fever.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13From the crusades onwards, damn lice...
0:11:13 > 0:11:15curse of the soldier...
0:11:15 > 0:11:16What do you reckon?
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Reckon your luck's in, Dad.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- Burt?- Here, Sir.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Three Carricks... Can that be right, Sister?
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- Brothers, Sir.- Brothers. - A Pals Battalion, Captain.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- All from the same street in my city. - Oh, well, in that case,
0:11:30 > 0:11:31I will take extra care.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35Now, you may need to speak up. I'm a little hard of hearing.
0:11:35 > 0:11:36Dear me!
0:11:37 > 0:11:39You're a jammy bugger, Dad!
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Eh? He's really nice. Why are you laughing at him?
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Oh, no, it's not like that. No...
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Old bloke like that, could be at home with his feet up
0:11:47 > 0:11:49but he's out here with t' rest of us.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- It does your heart proud. Doesn't it?- It does.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54No name.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56No pay book.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59- Driver said he's been heavily sedated.- Why?
0:11:59 > 0:12:00Bit of a handful.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03He's been here before.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Don't know the name but I recognise the face.
0:12:08 > 0:12:09Well...
0:12:09 > 0:12:11we'll find out when he wakes up. Won't we?
0:12:40 > 0:12:41Here they come!
0:12:54 > 0:12:57- Ward tent two.- Smashing. Ward two, lads.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Well, the gods are smiling on me today, Miss Trevelyan.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19Hop in.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27Special circumstances.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Setting a very dangerous precedent.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Now every nurse will want trips into town
0:13:32 > 0:13:33with no female chaperone.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38It won't be long before someone gets a belly full of arms and legs.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46This way.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48This way, we're going this way.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55I do wish you'd stop chattering, Miss Trevelyan,
0:13:55 > 0:13:57I can barely hear myself think(!)
0:14:02 > 0:14:04- No, thank you, Captain.- Miles.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I've told you, call me Miles.
0:14:08 > 0:14:09Do you know the hotel in town?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11I do.
0:14:11 > 0:14:12L'Hotel Rose Sur Mer.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15I keep a room there for myself and Tom - Captain Gillan.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Why?
0:14:18 > 0:14:19I heard it was...
0:14:19 > 0:14:20a nice place to take tea.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Oh, God, it's delightful!
0:14:39 > 0:14:40My plans?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Well, since you ask,
0:14:42 > 0:14:45I have some rather pressing private business to attend to.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48And then I'm going to go straight to my room at the hotel
0:14:48 > 0:14:49and run a bath.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51And then I'm going to enjoy a steak
0:14:51 > 0:14:53and a bottle, possibly two, of wine
0:14:53 > 0:14:55and if you would care to join me
0:14:55 > 0:14:57then that would be really rather marvellous.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02I meant in a restaurant, of course.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Slight slip of the tongue, there.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07But obviously I meant steak and wine in a restaurant.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Though were you to fling caution to the winds
0:15:09 > 0:15:10and join me in the bath
0:15:10 > 0:15:12then as gallantry is my constant watchword,
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I would of course take the tap end.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- What the hell are you doing? - I'm getting out!
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Oh, come on. Please, it was a joke!
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Please get back in the car.
0:15:26 > 0:15:27I'll walk.
0:15:29 > 0:15:30You can't bloody walk!
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Watch me. And I'll walk back, as well.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36I promise I won't say anything more, just get back in the car...
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Take your damn hands off me.
0:15:39 > 0:15:40You are being ridiculous!
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Bloody woman!
0:15:57 > 0:15:59I'll be outside the hotel at five.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01And much as I would happily leave you to walk, I can't.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05So you'll be there and we'll travel back in stony silence.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Oh, and one final thing,
0:16:08 > 0:16:09I give up.
0:16:33 > 0:16:34A1.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41BACKGROUND CHATTER
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Now's your chance, lad.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Now's the time.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Thank you, Captain.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55- Have you got a match? - There you go.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59I'll come and wave you all off.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02Aye, make sure you do.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Well, then.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Dawlish!
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Go on.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Tell me something, droopy drawers,
0:17:16 > 0:17:18does a day go by when you don't drop a bollock?
0:17:18 > 0:17:19Shut up, Raymond!
0:17:19 > 0:17:22And stop calling me droopy drawers!
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Doc's not listening.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32He's not listening!
0:17:32 > 0:17:34You're a jammy bugger, Dad.
0:17:34 > 0:17:35Jammy nothing.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37I told you,
0:17:37 > 0:17:38I'm charmed.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Would you like me to help?
0:17:42 > 0:17:43I've done this before,
0:17:43 > 0:17:46you could sign the forms once I've filled them in.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49Oh, I'm unconscionably slow, aren't I?
0:17:49 > 0:17:50Yes, please, Sister.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Otherwise these poor chaps will never get out of here!
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Two heads are better than one.
0:17:57 > 0:17:58So...
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Harris!
0:19:08 > 0:19:10A1.
0:19:10 > 0:19:11Thank you.
0:19:14 > 0:19:15Good lad.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Tyrell.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Come on then, Dad.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22You're all right there, Sister.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24You've got plenty to be getting on with.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26I don't mind waiting for the Captain.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28It won't take long, don't be daft. Come on!
0:19:28 > 0:19:29No, honestly...

0:19:38 > 0:19:40What happened?
0:19:40 > 0:19:41Did you fall out?
0:19:41 > 0:19:42It's coming.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44What is?
0:19:47 > 0:19:48Help me.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56There you go.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01He's one of them poor sods, isn't he?
0:20:01 > 0:20:02Stand back. Give him room.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04What on Earth's going on?
0:20:10 > 0:20:11Prentiss?
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Par ici, Madame.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35...quelque chose?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Monsieur, voila.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Ah, thank you.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56- Send my usual up.- Oui, monsieur.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40Hey, Charlie!
0:21:41 > 0:21:43- A1!- How's the food?
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Yeah, it's good.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02MEN YELL
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Hello, Nurse.
0:22:12 > 0:22:13Hello, Dawlish.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Are you going for a ride then?
0:22:17 > 0:22:18Oh, no...
0:22:18 > 0:22:20No, I can't really ride it.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23I mean, I've had a few lessons
0:22:23 > 0:22:25but I'm not very good at going round the corners.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27I'm just turning the engine over.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Joan, I mean, Sister said that could be my job because...
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Well, it needs to be turned over everyday
0:22:32 > 0:22:33because of the sea air.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35It's not very good for it.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39This is the throttle
0:22:39 > 0:22:41and that's how you turn it on!
0:22:41 > 0:22:42You're quite the expert.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Well, I'm rather a modern girl actually, Dawlish.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51That's good.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Yes...it is...
0:22:53 > 0:22:55very good.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58You see, Dawlish, in the future, we'll all be modern.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Er...
0:23:00 > 0:23:03I'd best be going now.
0:23:04 > 0:23:05Yes.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17You know it's Sister Quayle's birthday today?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20I thought I might pick her some blackberries.
0:23:20 > 0:23:21She's been very good to me.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25You know, Flora, I saw you...
0:23:25 > 0:23:26doing this.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30You'll give that young man ideas.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34- And he's a different class to you. - Oh, well done, Rosalie.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38You're not talking to Kitty or Joan and now I'm not talking to you.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45HE PANTS RAPIDLY
0:23:51 > 0:23:53That was quick work. Thank you, both.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56Keep an eye.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Can you lift your shirt up for me?
0:24:07 > 0:24:08Um...
0:24:11 > 0:24:13You don't need to do that. Doctor's not doing it.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15I am.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Why don't you want me to listen to your chest?
0:24:27 > 0:24:30A1, Dad, good lad, I'll see you out there.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Pleurisy. Double pneumonia.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Few years back.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44It's left me with a rattle, but it's...
0:24:50 > 0:24:53It sounds much worse than it is,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55it's nothing, honest.
0:24:59 > 0:25:00Breathe in.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12How did you get through your medical?
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Shoved a half crown across table.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Hey, no, no, don't. Please don't.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21Don't tell him, let it be just between me and you.
0:25:21 > 0:25:26It's just a rattle, it don't mean anything, it don't matter.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Yes, it does.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Captain.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50- Sister Quayle.- Sir.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Do you recall Lance Corporal Lawrence Prentiss?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55I gave you a Blighty Ticket to give to him
0:25:55 > 0:25:58so he could get on a convoy back to England.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00You told me you gave him that ticket.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04But if that was true, it would be impossible
0:26:04 > 0:26:06for Lance Corporal Lawrence Prentiss
0:26:06 > 0:26:08to be here.
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Would it not?
0:26:14 > 0:26:16With me, Sister Quayle.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17Now.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43- You lied to me.- I missed him, Sir.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46The convoy left and I couldn't find the Lance Corporal in time.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48Sir, this is not Sister Quayle's fault.
0:26:48 > 0:26:53I did everything in my power to find him in time, I truly did.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57I lied...
0:26:59 > 0:27:02..because I wanted you to think well of me, Sir.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05I would have thought better of you if you'd told me the truth.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Prentiss is now under the expert care of Sister Livesey.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Dismissed.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20That ticket was rescinded by Colonel Purbright.
0:27:20 > 0:27:25And you wrote out another one? You countermanded your Senior Officer.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Have you completely lost your mind?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Prentiss needed to go home.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32He had a chance, Grace.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37Now he has grand mal seizures and no control over his limbs
0:27:37 > 0:27:39unless he is doped to his eyeballs.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42He had a chance and now he hasn't.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45If she'd told me the truth, I could have done something.
0:27:45 > 0:27:46- Like what?- I don't know!
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Something!
0:27:49 > 0:27:52If she'd told me the truth, but she didn't. She lied. She lied.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56HE PANTS
0:28:56 > 0:28:58I can't stand this.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00I can't make it stop.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06I'll sit with him now, Sister. Thank you very much.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Lawrence?
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Laurie?
0:29:18 > 0:29:22When you were here before, listening to this helped.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24I don't know why but it did.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26Perhaps it will help again.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52It's all right, Lawrence. Lawrence. Hold the blanket.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46You look well.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Mademoiselle, the pour deux, s'il vous plait.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57A nurse.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00A ministering angel. I could hardly believe it when I heard.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05I would have thought you would have been too busy to leave England.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09I am. But it was imperative to see you.
0:31:13 > 0:31:14Proceedings can begin.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19You need to acknowledge your confession.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22I want the whole squalid business cleared up quickly.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24I want to marry again.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31I didn't write this.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34But they are the facts, are they not?
0:31:34 > 0:31:36You did have an affair?
0:31:39 > 0:31:41Of course, you can contest it...
0:32:07 > 0:32:09Good.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19- Go ahead and ask me, I know you want to.- How is she?
0:32:21 > 0:32:22She's very well.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Getting taller. Losing her baby teeth.
0:32:28 > 0:32:33She lives with my sister and all her cousins. It's better for a child.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35She has the very best.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37She's happy.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48Does she ask for me?
0:32:52 > 0:32:53You scared her, Kitty.
0:32:55 > 0:32:56You scared me.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00You shouldn't have taken her away.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02I didn't know what else to do.
0:33:02 > 0:33:03May I write to her?
0:33:05 > 0:33:07Saying what?
0:33:07 > 0:33:10I just don't want her to think that I've forgotten her...
0:33:12 > 0:33:14..that I don't...
0:33:14 > 0:33:17love her more than my own life,
0:33:17 > 0:33:20that I don't think about her every minute of every day.
0:33:20 > 0:33:21You can tell her yourself.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29She's here?
0:33:29 > 0:33:32Go easy, though. It's been a long day and she's tired.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19Sylvie?
0:34:20 > 0:34:24Sylvie, my little monkey.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Sylvie, it's Mummy.
0:34:27 > 0:34:28It's Mummy.

0:35:16 > 0:35:21They're expecting me back at the hospital.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24Someone is driving me there and if I don't...
0:35:24 > 0:35:29If I don't turn up, they will come looking.
0:35:29 > 0:35:32So, I'm going to leave this room
0:35:32 > 0:35:34and you're going to let me leave.

0:36:33 > 0:36:34I rather think not.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37This is private. Don't interfere.
0:36:37 > 0:36:38I'm afraid I must.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41Please step back, there's a good chap.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47This is a fine way for an Englishman to behave towards a serving nurse.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51A whore in nurse's uniform is still a whore. Isn't that right?
0:36:52 > 0:36:55On your back, knees to the sky.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57Might I have your name, Sir?
0:36:59 > 0:37:01Don't turn your back on me, I hold the King's Commission.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03A Captain in the RAMC? MOCKS SHUDDER
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Come back when you're Field Marshal.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27I think it's time we should be heading back.
0:37:30 > 0:37:31Are you all right?
0:37:40 > 0:37:45Well, Sister's absolutely right. You shouldn't have been here at all.
0:37:45 > 0:37:46Your lungs are a mess, man.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49We have to stay together, we have to. The Lucky 13s.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53That's just a superstition, there's nothing lucky about a number.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55No, there's everything's lucky about it!
0:37:55 > 0:37:58We've been where we've been, and there's no lad around us
0:37:58 > 0:38:02that's gotten out of there alive and all we've got is scratches...
0:38:04 > 0:38:05..and trench fever.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09You'd best believe that we're lucky!
0:38:12 > 0:38:14I'm an old man, me, I'm Dad.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18I hold my boys together.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21- My dear fellow...- No. - ..you'll be dragging your boys down.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23They'll be looking after you and not themselves.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26It won't be long before winter comes and that chest of yours
0:38:26 > 0:38:28isn't going to cope.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30It was fine before, weren't it? And we're not going to get
0:38:30 > 0:38:32another winter out here like we did last time.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34It'd be bloody madness, wouldn't it? Please.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37Private Tyrrell, it's commendable that you want to serve
0:38:37 > 0:38:40but...I'm sure there's still plenty you can do.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49Sister will give that to the clerk...
0:38:52 > 0:38:54..and they'll make the arrangements.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59I'm so sorry,
0:38:59 > 0:39:00but they'll understand.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11So I just go home now then, do I?
0:39:16 > 0:39:20Sit in the house, and wait for them telegrams to arrive,
0:39:20 > 0:39:21knowing it's my fault?
0:39:23 > 0:39:25I have to do what's right for you.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49Over here! Come on, over here!
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Pass it, go on!
0:39:59 > 0:40:01THEY CHEER

0:40:18 > 0:40:20- Sorry, lad.- No.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25Raymond, what's the matter?
0:40:25 > 0:40:26Hey?

0:40:45 > 0:40:49Raymond, you run, you're going to get bloody shot.
0:40:49 > 0:40:53Shoot me anyway, we're fucked, we're dead!
0:40:53 > 0:40:55You're not going to run, I'm not going to bloody let you!
0:40:55 > 0:40:59Now, you get up and you walk!

0:41:28 > 0:41:29You know him?
0:41:31 > 0:41:34I nursed him when he was here before.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38I'm very sorry to see him back.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Well, I'll do my best for him.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25I'm sorry about Roland, Margaret.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27It's the situation he's angry with, not you.
0:42:27 > 0:42:31The Colonel couldn't make it plainer what he thinks of me.
0:42:32 > 0:42:35But I'm not going to let that ruin my day.
0:42:35 > 0:42:37Not after you've gone to so much trouble.
0:42:39 > 0:42:43Margaret, the Blighty Ticket...
0:42:43 > 0:42:46you did destroy it, didn't you?
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Well, of course I did, Grace.
0:42:48 > 0:42:52I never wanted it put into my hands in the first place.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Why would I keep such a thing?
0:42:57 > 0:43:00You show 'em what your made of. All right?
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Thanks, Dad.- That's it, all right.

0:43:36 > 0:43:38Nothing to thank me for.
0:43:50 > 0:43:54Charlie, I know what you're going to say and I am sorry, but really
0:43:54 > 0:43:57there's nothing can be done, he can't go back up with you...
0:43:57 > 0:44:00I never fell off my bike. I never got smashed up. I just said that.
0:44:00 > 0:44:01SHE GASPS
0:44:01 > 0:44:04You don't know me from the hospital.
0:44:04 > 0:44:07I work at a restaurant back home.
0:44:07 > 0:44:11At the chophouse. I wait a bit of table when they're busy.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15It's no surprise you couldn't place me.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19You don't have eyes for anyone else really...
0:44:19 > 0:44:20when you're with him.
0:44:25 > 0:44:28He's a nice man. Friendly, lovely manners,
0:44:28 > 0:44:30always left a big tip.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33You could hardly hear his accent.
0:44:35 > 0:44:37I mean, it was all right back then,
0:44:37 > 0:44:40we was all friends, but it's different now.
0:44:41 > 0:44:44And here's you...
0:44:44 > 0:44:47in an Army hospital...
0:44:47 > 0:44:49and him, a German...
0:44:49 > 0:44:52Well, he could be so close, couldn't he?
0:44:52 > 0:44:54Trenches are only 50 miles away.
0:44:55 > 0:44:57And people do talk.
0:44:57 > 0:44:59They do like to point the finger.
0:45:07 > 0:45:09Are you blackmailing me?
0:45:09 > 0:45:13Eh...two weeks I've been here and I've not breathed a word.
0:45:13 > 0:45:16And I wouldn't have done, not ever, but now...
0:45:16 > 0:45:19now I'm in a predicament.
0:45:19 > 0:45:23My mates...my brothers are in bits.
0:45:23 > 0:45:25So I've got to put the big boots on, haven't I?
0:45:26 > 0:45:29I don't take no pleasure from doing this, Sister,
0:45:29 > 0:45:32but we all stay together, we all stay alive.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35So, I've got to use what I've got.
0:45:35 > 0:45:36And this is what I've got.
0:45:36 > 0:45:39- What do you want? - You know what I want.
0:45:41 > 0:45:43- I can't.- Yes, you can.
0:45:43 > 0:45:46Tear that one up and copy one of the other ones.
0:45:46 > 0:45:48It won't be nothing to you.
0:45:48 > 0:45:50But it is.
0:45:53 > 0:45:56Well, then you'll have to work out what's worth more.
0:45:56 > 0:45:58And you'd best hurry cos they're lining us up.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15SHE SIGHS

0:46:48 > 0:46:51I don't take no pleasure in doing this. It...
0:46:53 > 0:46:55It just had to be done.
0:47:00 > 0:47:04You and him... you look good together.
0:47:05 > 0:47:06Right?
0:47:06 > 0:47:09Some people just do, don't they?
0:47:11 > 0:47:14They just look right with each other.
0:47:29 > 0:47:31SHE SOBS
0:47:35 > 0:47:37Thank you.
0:47:37 > 0:47:39CHATTER

0:48:02 > 0:48:04Hey, how did you manage that?
0:48:04 > 0:48:06CHATTER
0:48:09 > 0:48:11Isn't this such a treat?
0:48:11 > 0:48:13CHATTER
0:48:15 > 0:48:20- Now, Sister Livesey?- Hm?- Since it's my birthday, you have to indulge me.
0:48:20 > 0:48:26I'm all agog because it transpires that you are a woman of mystery.
0:48:28 > 0:48:31- There's nothing mysterious about me. - Oh, but there is.
0:48:31 > 0:48:33You haven't breathed a word about the fact that you're betrothed.
0:48:35 > 0:48:38PIANO STOPS APPLAUSE
0:48:39 > 0:48:41I'm not.
0:48:41 > 0:48:44Oh, come now. Dear Miss Berwick has seen the ring.
0:48:44 > 0:48:47Tell us all about him. Is he in uniform?
0:48:54 > 0:48:55Ohh!
0:48:55 > 0:48:59Do show us. We love a romance.
0:48:59 > 0:49:01And there's nothing more romantic
0:49:01 > 0:49:04than a nurse in love with her brave, brave man.
0:49:04 > 0:49:07Show us.
0:49:25 > 0:49:28NURSES GASP
0:49:28 > 0:49:31Ohh! And what's his name?
0:49:34 > 0:49:39- Charlie.- And which regiment? Is he...an officer?
0:49:39 > 0:49:43He's a Lance Corporal... Royal Engineers.
0:49:45 > 0:49:48Oh, my dear! I've upset you!
0:49:48 > 0:49:50I didn't mean to.
0:49:50 > 0:49:53- SHE SIGHS - Please, excuse me.
0:49:53 > 0:49:56Oh, no! Ohh!
0:49:56 > 0:49:59That is the last thing I wanted.
0:49:59 > 0:50:00Oh, well!
0:50:05 > 0:50:07Who hasn't had any?
0:50:07 > 0:50:09- Thank you, Sister.- There you are.
0:50:31 > 0:50:33CICADAS CHIRRUP
0:50:43 > 0:50:46My, God!
0:50:47 > 0:50:50What, pray, is the meaning of this?
0:50:50 > 0:50:52You know what I'm looking for.
0:50:52 > 0:50:54I destroyed it.
0:50:54 > 0:50:57I've known you for a very long time.
0:50:57 > 0:51:00You hit back at those that hurt you.
0:51:00 > 0:51:02What a little attack dog you are!
0:51:02 > 0:51:06You turn on your oldest friend in favour of your new master.
0:51:08 > 0:51:10I feel quite sickened.
0:51:11 > 0:51:14Then you'll have to feel sickened,
0:51:14 > 0:51:15because I think...
0:51:15 > 0:51:18No, I'm certain, that you kept it
0:51:18 > 0:51:22because you knew the damage it could do to Roland.
0:51:22 > 0:51:24To punish him for not making you Matron.
0:51:30 > 0:51:34- You should have turned it down! - Well, I didn't!
0:51:34 > 0:51:36You let me be humiliated!
0:51:36 > 0:51:38There's an order to things.
0:51:38 > 0:51:43Everyone was looking at me knowing it was mine, everyone!
0:51:43 > 0:51:47You let me endure the shame of being passed over
0:51:47 > 0:51:50after everything I've done for you.
0:51:50 > 0:51:53You took what was mine and you should have turned it down!
0:51:53 > 0:51:56You let me be shamed!
0:51:56 > 0:51:58That's how you repay me?
0:51:58 > 0:52:01Am I expected to be grateful for ever?
0:52:01 > 0:52:05You're expected...to be loyal!
0:52:08 > 0:52:10I saved you!
0:52:10 > 0:52:13Perhaps I would have been happier if you hadn't!
0:52:13 > 0:52:18Ohh! You'd have...been ruined!
0:52:18 > 0:52:21A laughing stock, a pariah!
0:52:21 > 0:52:24You'd have been nothing!
0:52:24 > 0:52:27You certainly wouldn't have been Matron.
0:52:35 > 0:52:37Do you know what they say about you?
0:52:37 > 0:52:42They say that you and the Colonel are especially close.
0:52:44 > 0:52:47But I could tell them otherwise.
0:52:48 > 0:52:49Couldn't I?
0:52:51 > 0:52:55I could tell them that your tastes...
0:52:55 > 0:52:58are far more exotic.
0:53:08 > 0:53:10Sister Quayle...
0:53:12 > 0:53:16..you've been working very hard and you must be exhausted.
0:53:18 > 0:53:21I'm sending you home on two weeks' leave.
0:53:21 > 0:53:24And while you are on leave, you will think very carefully
0:53:24 > 0:53:26about whether you can continue to work here,
0:53:26 > 0:53:28under me.
0:53:29 > 0:53:33If you can't, I will arrange for your transfer as far away as possible.
0:53:35 > 0:53:37Use the time wisely.

0:55:02 > 0:55:05I couldn't turn down the pass.
0:55:07 > 0:55:09No-one turns down a pass.
0:55:11 > 0:55:13It would have made Miles' day.
0:55:13 > 0:55:16I only saw him in the car.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18He was very polite.
0:55:21 > 0:55:23The thing is...
0:55:26 > 0:55:28..maybe it was for the best.
0:55:28 > 0:55:30Not meeting.
0:55:30 > 0:55:32Why?
0:55:34 > 0:55:37I'd be the one sent home...
0:55:37 > 0:55:39not you.
