0:00:02 > 0:00:03This fiance isn't British, is he?
0:00:03 > 0:00:06- They'll crucify you. - It's just a letter.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09You find Corporal Prentiss and give him that.
0:00:09 > 0:00:10I thought it had been rescinded, sir.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12I want Prentiss on that convoy.
0:00:12 > 0:00:14You know what I'm looking for.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16I destroyed it.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18No, I'm certain that you kept it,
0:00:18 > 0:00:21because you knew the damage it could do to Roland.
0:00:21 > 0:00:24You didn't volunteer out of duty. You volunteered to escape.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29I was taken prisoner. I jumped from the train.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31You're going to ride away from the village.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35There's a crossroads. Hide yourself there and watch the road for me.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38Good evening, Sister. What have you been up to?
0:01:14 > 0:01:22This programme contains some strong language
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I can't give you anything for the pain.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31You'll just have to grit your teeth.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35Have they caught him?
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Please.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46Not that I've heard.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Be better for you if they had.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52I don't know what you thought you were doing.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57DOOR OPENS
0:02:00 > 0:02:01DOOR CLOSES
0:02:10 > 0:02:16Nothing will happen. Too much business, too much shared interest.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21The king is a bloody German. Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23He's more German than me.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29No-one's more German than you.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37He's ill.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41What sort of son would I be
0:02:41 > 0:02:43if I didn't go to my father when he's ill?
0:02:48 > 0:02:49I'm just so scared.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Liebchen, you're never scared.
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Do you think WE'LL get in trouble?
0:03:29 > 0:03:31I don't see why we should get in trouble.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33We didn't know anything, did we?
0:03:33 > 0:03:35If we had, we'd have said so straightaway,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37so I don't see why we should get in trouble.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38We've been told not to talk about it.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41I never would have touched her rotten motorcycle if I'd known, never.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- And I liked her.- And that's all in the past tense, is it?
0:03:44 > 0:03:46So quick to turn your back?
0:03:46 > 0:03:47I have brothers fighting.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49I showed her their photographs,
0:03:49 > 0:03:53I told her I had brother's fighting and she just pretended to be lovely.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56And you? Are you going to turn your back like Flora?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Matron's strictest orders were that this matter must not be discussed.
0:03:59 > 0:04:00KITTY SIGHS
0:04:00 > 0:04:02So, I will not be discussing it.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Colonel Purbright is here.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Roland, you should distance yourself from this.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15I'll go in with her. She's my nurse and I'm responsible.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17No. It's my hospital.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23She must have been desperate.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Joan Livesey,
0:05:01 > 0:05:04you stand accused of aiding the escape of a German prisoner of war.
0:05:04 > 0:05:09I know how it looks, but it really isn't how it looks. It's just...
0:05:09 > 0:05:11I swear on my life, it's not how it looks.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13You're to comply fully and truthfully with this hearing
0:05:13 > 0:05:15so that when Intelligence arrive,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18we can present them with a clear and concise exposition of events
0:05:18 > 0:05:20and show that the Royal Army Medical Corps
0:05:20 > 0:05:23can put its own house in order. Is that clear? Yes, sir.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26You understand you're subject to military law?
0:05:27 > 0:05:30That law states that any person who treacherously holds
0:05:30 > 0:05:33correspondence with or gives intelligence to the enemy
0:05:33 > 0:05:36shall, on conviction by court martial, be liable to suffer death.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Do you now understand the situation that you're in?
0:05:53 > 0:05:54How is she?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59As you'd expect.
0:05:59 > 0:06:00What's going to happen to her?
0:06:00 > 0:06:01I don't care.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03How can you say that?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08What do you think we're doing here?
0:06:08 > 0:06:10What do you think this is?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15I don't hack the limbs off men for fun.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17I don't pull shrapnel out of their brains
0:06:17 > 0:06:20so they can spend the rest of their lives in a nursing home,
0:06:20 > 0:06:21dribbling down themselves, for fun.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23They're not dying for fun.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27She didn't go to meet him. She thought it was only a letter.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Did she tell you?
0:06:31 > 0:06:34I guessed. Didn't take too much to guess.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36But you knew and said nothing?!
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Why are you so angry?
0:06:40 > 0:06:43A good man could lose his job because of this.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47My boss. He trusted her and now his neck's on the block.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49And you knew and said nothing.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54You're as much to blame as she is.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56You'll be in serious trouble if they find out.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09SHE PUFFS
0:07:09 > 0:07:13I have suppliers in the village, sir. Poultry and eggs.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17I was returning to the hospital when I saw Livesey. She was with a man.
0:07:17 > 0:07:23He spoke German. They embraced. He was wearing her coat.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26She gave him her motorcycle and he drove away.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Now, I would have attempted arrest of both of them, sir,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31but I was alone and unarmed.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I felt it better to be certain of one apprehension
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- than fail with two, sir.- Sergeant.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42The prisoner appears to be somewhat marked, Sergeant Soper.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44There was a kerfuffle, sir.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47The prisoner was required to remove an item of evidence
0:07:47 > 0:07:49she wore around her neck.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52The prisoner did not wish to remove aforementioned item.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55The guards were required to...
0:07:55 > 0:07:58to employ some encouragement.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Everybody would have had it different, sir.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Thank you, Soper. Dismissed.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Might we have a chair?
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Corporal, if you would.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22Livesey, in coming to France, was it your express intention
0:08:22 > 0:08:26and premeditated purpose to communicate with the enemy?
0:08:26 > 0:08:27No.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30I came to France to nurse.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34- Take him through.- Watch your step. - Just breathe.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Can't you get down?
0:08:40 > 0:08:42I was frying bacon, I was,
0:08:42 > 0:08:46and a shell goes off and all the fat spills down me leg.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Sizzling hot. It really hurts.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Well, let's get you settled into bed and then you'll feel better.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Just a minute.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56He's a stretcher bearer. Two nights in a shell hole...
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- You're burning.- ..nibbled by the rats. Look at his ears.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Can someone help me, please?
0:09:10 > 0:09:11I can hear them.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Who?
0:09:17 > 0:09:18I can hear them calling.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21You have a terrible fever.
0:09:22 > 0:09:27There's no-one calling. I promise you.
0:09:27 > 0:09:28I can hear them.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35I can hear them...
0:09:39 > 0:09:43I'm sure it does hurt, but it really doesn't look too bad.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Don't you want to take your dirty clothes off
0:09:45 > 0:09:48- and have a proper wash first? - No, no.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52Do you have a brother?
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Rosalie, don't you think we should put aside our differences.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Why?
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Because it's not important, not with everything that's going on.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16I said that I'm not going to talk about it.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Please!
0:10:21 > 0:10:26I have a nasty temper and a sharp tongue. They get me into trouble.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28I hurt you and I'm sorry.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31I know all about your trouble.
0:10:31 > 0:10:32Mrs Vincent.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41What did you say?
0:10:41 > 0:10:46My crocus and daffodil bulbs came wrapped in old newspaper.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Of course, I remember it all from before the war.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Quite the notorious woman.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Are you trying to wipe the slate clean,
0:10:53 > 0:10:55pretend you're something you're not?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Pretend you're decent?
0:10:58 > 0:10:59No.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04You accuse me of coming here to escape.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06What are you doing but hiding?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Five days ago, a group of prisoners of war
0:11:34 > 0:11:37were taken for initial interrogation.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41One stands out - cultured, intelligent, exceptional English.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Anton Ehrlich.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48The prisoners are put on the train and the officer accompanying them
0:11:48 > 0:11:50invites this cultured and intelligent German
0:11:50 > 0:11:52to his carriage to take tea.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Seeing the coast from the train window,
0:11:54 > 0:11:56the prisoner asks where they are, the officer tells him,
0:11:56 > 0:11:59whereupon the cultured and intelligent Anton Ehrlich
0:11:59 > 0:12:02hits the officer, breaking his jaw, and he escapes.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06You know this man?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- Answer, please.- Yes, sir.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15This was the man you met last night?
0:12:15 > 0:12:16Yes, sir.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22DOGS BARK IN DISTANCE
0:12:28 > 0:12:31It's so awful, isn't it, what's happening?
0:12:31 > 0:12:34"It's so awful." Is that the best you've got?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Well, it is awful.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38What do you want, anyway?
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Well, I know we're not really speaking,
0:12:42 > 0:12:46but I just wondered if you had a brother or a cousin.
0:12:46 > 0:12:47What's it to you?
0:12:47 > 0:12:49There's a James Foley just come in.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52I just thought...
0:12:52 > 0:12:57well, something nice when everything's so horrible.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59He's not badly hurt.
0:13:13 > 0:13:14Oi, oi, slug-a-bed.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17THEY LAUGH
0:13:17 > 0:13:18Pete!
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Ohh!
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- I burned me leg, Pete. - Oh.- Bacon fat.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27You a doctor?
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Course I'm not a bloody doctor, soppy bollocks.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34Want to see where I live?
0:13:36 > 0:13:39When you arrived at this hospital, you said you'd missed the transport.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41I did. I got lost.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43It was very chaotic. I told Matron at the time...
0:13:43 > 0:13:46In order to get here, you bought a motorcycle
0:13:46 > 0:13:50and a British officer's greatcoat. Means of transport and disguise.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52You make it sound like I planned it all.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54That's because you did.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57No, I just wanted to get here and start work.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02And what work was that? Identifying potential conspirators?
0:14:03 > 0:14:05What do you mean?
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Jaco Tillens, Belgian refugee. You treated his daughter here.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- Yes.- Then you went to his house. - To check on the little girl, yes.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13The same house where you were arrested.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Did you know Jaco Tillens before coming to France?
0:14:15 > 0:14:19No, and any nurse here could have treated him or his daughter.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Yes, but any nurse didn't. You did.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Was his name passed to you from a third party?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Of course not. What third party?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I understand that he was badly beaten,
0:14:27 > 0:14:30that he'd become the object of suspicion and hostility.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33He'll be arrested for espionage the minute he lands in Britain.
0:14:33 > 0:14:34He knew nothing.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37I never spoke to him about anything but his daughter's health.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40There's no conspiracy, no third party, it was just me.
0:14:40 > 0:14:41It was just you.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47I didn't plan any of this.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52You planned it because your sympathies and your loyalties
0:14:52 > 0:14:53lie with the enemy.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01It's a palace.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04Soppy bollocks. It's a tent.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Can I stay here with you?
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Don't be daft. You've got a bed on the ward, make the most of it.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Why did you go, Pete?
0:15:16 > 0:15:22Got bored, didn't I? Too much graft, having to scrape for everything.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27- The Army's the cushy life. - You never said goodbye.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Spur of the moment, Jimmy. Not enough time.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33No-one talks about you.
0:15:35 > 0:15:39I asked and Dad fetched me a clump on me ear.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Blood come out.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Well, he's an evil old shit.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Did I do something wrong?
0:15:45 > 0:15:48No. Just stop going on about it, all right? I had enough and went.
0:15:48 > 0:15:49Would've come with you.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51No, you couldn't.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Look, I've got work to do. Come on. Out.
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Can I keep my slippers?
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Always the same. You get an idea in your head,
0:16:04 > 0:16:05you're like a dog with a bone.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07This is why you get clumped, Jimmy.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09They're comfy. I can wear 'em home.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- You're not going home, Jimmy. - But I burned me leg. It hurt.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Did you burn yourself?
0:16:19 > 0:16:20No.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29You burned yourself, didn't you?
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Oh, fuck!
0:16:33 > 0:16:35JIMMY CRIES
0:16:35 > 0:16:37- I want to go home. - You can't go home!
0:16:37 > 0:16:39You should be wanting to kill 'em with your bare hands,
0:16:39 > 0:16:42not sitting here crying, blowing snot bubbles like a baby.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43I don't want to!
0:16:48 > 0:16:52I'm ashamed of you. My own brother running from the enemy.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59How and when did you meet this man?
0:17:00 > 0:17:03In Liverpool. '09.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09He was working on the foundations of the Liver Building.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11He's a civil engineer.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13And there's no mention of your relationship with this man
0:17:13 > 0:17:15in any of your references from England.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19You don't know what it was like after the Lusitania was sunk.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21You don't know how bad it was at home.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26German families, people that had been living in England for years,
0:17:26 > 0:17:30were dragged out into their streets to have their heads stamped on...
0:17:30 > 0:17:31So you lied.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34If you think that came easy...
0:17:36 > 0:17:38..to deny him, if you think that came easy...
0:17:38 > 0:17:40But you still lied.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44You lied to gain people's trust.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59I wasn't expecting you for another two days. What brings you back?
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Kent was tedious.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04The house is very small, the walls very thin,
0:18:04 > 0:18:08and there was nowhere I could not hear my brother and his wife snoring,
0:18:08 > 0:18:11or sneezing, or merely breathing.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14It isn't home.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24The driver told me about Sister Livesey.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31What a burden you've had to carry... but I'm here now.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36I'll change and get straight to the wards.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Did you think whilst you were away?
0:18:41 > 0:18:42I did.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47I am deeply ashamed of my outburst.
0:18:47 > 0:18:53I hope you can forgive me. I will not challenge you again in any way.
0:19:03 > 0:19:04Wait.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12This situation has left Colonel Brett's status in doubt.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14All senior staff are to be questioned
0:19:14 > 0:19:17as to his ability to lead this hospital.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20This is not the time for it to be discovered

0:45:53 > 0:45:55I want you to tell them no.
0:45:57 > 0:46:00If you think anything of me at all, if you love me at all,
0:46:00 > 0:46:01then you'll tell them no.
0:46:06 > 0:46:12Then, liebchen... this is what I will tell them.
0:46:15 > 0:46:17Are you going to marry me?
0:46:17 > 0:46:18SHE LAUGHS
0:46:22 > 0:46:23Yes.
0:46:23 > 0:46:25THEY BOTH LAUGH
0:46:30 > 0:46:32It's only the duration.
0:46:35 > 0:46:37It can't last for ever.
0:46:46 > 0:46:48Done them serious bloody damage.
0:46:50 > 0:46:54She can disappear off, but the damage to our reputation stays
0:46:54 > 0:46:56and we have to weather it.
0:46:56 > 0:47:00All because of one bloody stupid woman.
0:47:01 > 0:47:03Well, she had YOU on the ropes at one point.
0:47:07 > 0:47:14And this attitude is your whole damn problem. You're soft.
0:47:14 > 0:47:17Lucky for you that Sister Quayle wore her medal.
0:47:17 > 0:47:19That sort of thing carries a lot of weight.
0:47:21 > 0:47:24For Christ's sake, toughen up.
0:47:24 > 0:47:26Stop trying to be a father to everyone.
0:47:39 > 0:47:42- I, um... - HE CLEARS THROAT
0:47:42 > 0:47:46I meant to ask before, but... didn't seem like the right time.
0:47:47 > 0:47:50Which of your boys was it?
0:47:50 > 0:47:55Freddie, the eldest. Alexander's still at school.
0:47:55 > 0:47:56Does Hetty know?
0:47:58 > 0:48:00I would imagine so, yes.
0:48:00 > 0:48:02Hmm. Tough for the mothers.
0:48:03 > 0:48:06But some comfort in knowing that it wasn't a wasted death.
0:48:06 > 0:48:08It meant something.
0:48:13 > 0:48:17- The nurse, Miss Cavell... - Yes, it went very hard for her.
0:48:17 > 0:48:20Was there no diplomatic intervention?
0:48:20 > 0:48:23The Americans tried, as Americans do.
0:48:23 > 0:48:25Maybe now they'll finally see what we're up against.
0:48:25 > 0:48:27But what about us? Was there nothing from us?
0:48:29 > 0:48:33As I understand it, no-one wanted to make it any worse for her.
0:48:33 > 0:48:36She was going to be shot! How the hell could it get any worse?!
0:48:36 > 0:48:38Control yourself!
0:48:39 > 0:48:41Let me give you my assessment of the situation.
0:48:41 > 0:48:44- I think you should shut up. - We're going into a second winter
0:48:44 > 0:48:47when we weren't supposed to have the first, and there's no end in sight.
0:48:47 > 0:48:51But nothing gets the shoulder to the wheel like an executed nurse.
0:48:51 > 0:48:53That'll reignite the fervour,
0:48:53 > 0:48:56everyone behind the war effort, no matter what.
0:48:56 > 0:48:59So, not a wasted death, then.
0:49:00 > 0:49:02It meant something.
0:49:05 > 0:49:06The shock of your recent bereavement
0:49:06 > 0:49:08means that I will ignore that comment.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:49:42 > 0:49:43Hm.
0:49:52 > 0:49:55The Blighty ticket.
0:49:55 > 0:49:56Of course I kept it.
0:49:58 > 0:50:02Why would I get rid of something so invaluably damning?
0:50:07 > 0:50:09And now I give it to you...
0:50:11 > 0:50:15..as a lesson in the true value and meaning of loyalty.
0:50:19 > 0:50:21Colonel Brett is very lucky to have you.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25And you're very lucky to have me.
0:50:26 > 0:50:29I meant what I said. I will not challenge you again.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52I want my share when you sell it.
0:51:29 > 0:51:31The Intelligence Officers.
0:51:32 > 0:51:35You thought I was bringing them straight for you, didn't you?
0:51:37 > 0:51:38Yes.
0:51:41 > 0:51:45You actually believed I'd deliver you up and watch them drag you away?
0:51:48 > 0:51:49Why would you think that?
0:51:51 > 0:51:53You drive me mad, but...
0:51:55 > 0:51:56..I'd never hurt you.
0:52:03 > 0:52:07- I came here for a reason. - I know. You've said. It's understood.
0:52:07 > 0:52:11No. It's not. But I want you to understand.
0:52:15 > 0:52:18The reason I came is because in England,
0:52:18 > 0:52:21I have a daughter who I'm not allowed to see.
0:52:27 > 0:52:28Why not?
0:52:30 > 0:52:34Because I made a terrible, terrible mess of things.
0:52:37 > 0:52:38I really made such a mess.
0:52:45 > 0:52:47What's she like?
0:52:53 > 0:52:55Her name is Sylvie.
0:52:57 > 0:52:58She's six.
0:53:00 > 0:53:02She likes climbing trees.
0:53:04 > 0:53:06She hates wearing shoes.
0:53:07 > 0:53:09She wants a dragon for Christmas.
0:53:14 > 0:53:15She's beautiful...
0:53:18 > 0:53:20..and utterly fearless.
0:53:24 > 0:53:30She really is such a fierce, spiky little thing.
0:53:35 > 0:53:38Can't think where she would get that from.
0:53:38 > 0:53:39SHE LAUGHS
0:53:45 > 0:53:47DOOR OPENS
0:53:49 > 0:53:55Meet me. The place you said before. In an hour. I'll be there.
0:53:55 > 0:53:57I'll understand if you're not, but I'll be there.
0:54:07 > 0:54:09He was born with a cord around his neck.
0:54:12 > 0:54:14He shouldn't be on his own.
0:54:17 > 0:54:19He's a lamb. I should never have left him.
0:54:27 > 0:54:28Why did you?
0:54:30 > 0:54:32Is it because people found out what you are?
0:54:34 > 0:54:36What's the matter with you?
0:54:37 > 0:54:39Is it because you're a girl that you think
0:54:39 > 0:54:41everyone wants their life laid out?
0:54:41 > 0:54:43They don't.
0:54:48 > 0:54:50You know we're supposed to be 23?
0:54:50 > 0:54:53- Mmm?- I'm not.
0:54:53 > 0:54:56- I worked that out.- I'm nearly 19.
0:54:57 > 0:54:59Well, if there can be boy soldiers,
0:54:59 > 0:55:01I don't see why there can't be a girl nurse.
0:55:01 > 0:55:04All I had to do was lock myself in my room for two days
0:55:04 > 0:55:06and they all decided to lie for me.
0:55:06 > 0:55:09Obviously I'm completely spoiled, but I do always use it for good.
0:55:11 > 0:55:15It's my secret, so you know I'll keep yours.
0:55:16 > 0:55:20You like men, but you do have to be careful.
0:55:21 > 0:55:23Where's the fun in that?
0:55:44 > 0:55:46For Christ's sake!
0:55:49 > 0:55:51Put them in the trucks.
0:55:51 > 0:55:54- ENGINE STARTS - Put them in the trucks!- In.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29I thought I'd tidy them up for you.
0:56:31 > 0:56:32Have we met?
0:56:35 > 0:56:37No.
0:56:38 > 0:56:41Are you sure? I feel certain I know you.
0:56:43 > 0:56:45We're only just meeting now.
0:56:49 > 0:56:51Parry. Greville.
0:56:52 > 0:56:54Berwick. Rosalie.
0:57:52 > 0:57:54HE PUFFS
