0:01:45 > 0:01:51This is India - the North-West Frontier Province, 1905.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55A country of many religions.

0:01:57 > 0:02:03Men find many reasons for killing each other - greed, revenge, jealousy,

0:02:03 > 0:02:07or perhaps because they worship God by different names.

0:02:15 > 0:02:20Rebel fanatics are gathering in the hills.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22They intend to kill a six-year-old boy

0:02:22 > 0:02:26because he is a prince and his people's future leader.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32His father, the Maharajah,

0:02:32 > 0:02:38has appealed to us, the British, to take his son to the garrison town of Haserabad,

0:02:38 > 0:02:42and to send him from there to safety in Delhi.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45- HORSES NEIGH - Come on...

0:07:27 > 0:07:29CLAMOUR

0:08:30 > 0:08:33FIRE!

0:08:33 > 0:08:34Fire!

0:08:41 > 0:08:42Fire!

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Fire!

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Hat jao! Hat jao!

0:10:23 > 0:10:27Hat jao! Hat jao! Hat jao!

0:10:35 > 0:10:41Piche jao! There's another gate along to the left!

0:10:41 > 0:10:43For heaven's sake, keep that door open!

0:10:43 > 0:10:44Hat jao! Hat jao!

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Piche! Piche! Keep back!

0:10:51 > 0:10:55- Very sorry, sir. - "B" Company, an apt name(!)

0:10:55 > 0:11:01- Have they held the last train? - No, sir. It's gone. - Damn! We'd better report.

0:11:03 > 0:11:08- Still with me?- Yes. For better or worse.

0:11:21 > 0:11:26GIVES INSTRUCTIONS IN HINDUSTANI

0:11:27 > 0:11:33- He'll be all right.- Of course. His people have always been soldiers.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35There's no more I can do...

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- Captain Scott!- I demand protection! - Excuse me...

0:11:39 > 0:11:46- I am so glad you made it!- Mrs Wyatt, Mr Bridie. He does all the work round here.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49His Excellency wishes to see you.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52- I'll report at once. - This way, Mrs Wyatt.

0:11:55 > 0:12:03- FRENCH ACCENT: I am a British citizen!- We ALL are, even if we have no papers as proof!

0:12:03 > 0:12:08- Why wasn't I warned about this by cable?- The lines were cut.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Straight through into the ballroom.

0:12:11 > 0:12:18- Take me to the governor at once! - There's nothing he can do. The last train's gone.

0:12:18 > 0:12:22I don't suppose having Mrs Wyatt with you made it any quicker.

0:12:22 > 0:12:27She did pretty well, sir. Not my idea of a governess!

0:12:27 > 0:12:31Her husband was a fine doctor. He saved the boy's life once.

0:12:31 > 0:12:32The Maharajah never forgot it.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35- The Maharajah wouldn't leave.- No.

0:12:35 > 0:12:42Special orders from Delhi to get Prince Kishan out at once. Seems I've failed.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- KNOCK AT DOOR - Yes?- General Ames, sir.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48- Come in, Charles. - You got here, eventually(!)

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- Scott did the best he could. - Where's the boy?- In the library.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55MUSIC BOX PLAYS

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Your Highness. Welcome to my home.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Thank you.

0:13:05 > 0:13:11- He's very tired.- Mrs Wyatt, this is General Ames.- How do you do?

0:13:11 > 0:13:15I'm afraid the last train has gone. We held it as long as we dared.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17I promised I'd take him to safety.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20- It's the last thing I promised his father.- He'll be safe here.

0:13:20 > 0:13:25Do you think so(?) This is no ordinary tribal uprising!

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- This is bigger!- We think not!

0:13:28 > 0:13:34I'm telling you! Princes who have always been enemies are now on the same side.

0:13:34 > 0:13:41- She's right, sir.- If you'd acted on the message I sent days ago, Kishan would be safe now!

0:13:41 > 0:13:47- WE are the best judges of that! - Huh! The British never act till they've had tea

0:13:47 > 0:13:48by which time it's too late!

0:13:48 > 0:13:50SCOTT CHUCKLES

0:13:52 > 0:13:56I'm sorry, but that's how it seems to an American.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00Forgive me. Nobody told me you'd come. I was in the hospital.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04- My dear, you might have sent word. Your Highness. Mrs Wyatt?- Yes.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- I've heard of you.- How do you do?

0:14:07 > 0:14:11The child looks exhausted. So do you, Captain Scott.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14- I'm sure you'd like a bath. - Yes, I would.- Come along.

0:14:23 > 0:14:27- Thank you, Captain. - You're a good soldier.

0:14:28 > 0:14:32Forgive me for speaking my mind. I believe that's what it's for.

0:14:35 > 0:14:40- All the other princes fighting together?!- She may be wrong.- I hope so.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Get some rest, Scott. - Thank you, sir.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51YELLS ORDERS

0:14:51 > 0:14:54MEN YELL AND ROAR

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Fire!

0:16:26 > 0:16:31They've captured the railway gates. Can we hold out?

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Without reinforcements, we haven't a hope.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37Prince Kishan must be got out.

0:16:37 > 0:16:42- We must save his life if it's the last thing we do.- It may well be.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- Is Captain Scott here?- He's waiting, sir.- Send him in, please.

0:16:45 > 0:16:51- The boy is just a figurehead.- His family have been rulers for generations.

0:16:51 > 0:16:56It's our only chance of restoring order in the province.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Is he so important, this one small boy?

0:16:59 > 0:17:01I know he is. He may only be five but he's the religious

0:17:01 > 0:17:04and political leader of hundreds of thousands of Hindus.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06- KNOCKING - Come in.

0:17:06 > 0:17:13These rebels are Muslims. If they manage to kill Kishan, the Hindus will have no leader.

0:17:13 > 0:17:18It will be civil war on a vast scale, worse than the mutiny.

0:17:18 > 0:17:23Scott, what are the chances of getting the prince to safety?

0:17:23 > 0:17:27Mrs Wyatt, your presence was not requested.

0:17:27 > 0:17:32The discussion affects me more closely than anyone else here!

0:17:32 > 0:17:39- Quite correct. Well, Scott? - The last train has gone. - There must be another way.

0:17:39 > 0:17:44- Horses?- No, we had to leave ours. They have a sniper on every hill.

0:17:44 > 0:17:49- But you got through.- That was before they closed in.- Yes, right enough.

0:17:49 > 0:17:56The prince will have to stay here. We're expecting reinforcements at any moment.

0:17:56 > 0:18:03What you really mean is reinforcements probably will not get here in time.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06You don't understand at all.

0:18:06 > 0:18:11It's a good way of looking at things... It just takes getting used to!

0:18:11 > 0:18:14- Thank you, Scott.- Sir.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18EXPLOSION >

0:18:18 > 0:18:23- There's no use your waiting. - When can I see him? Tell me when.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25The governor is very busy. He'll see you when he can.

0:18:25 > 0:18:30- I will lodge a complaint when I get to Delhi...- IF you get to Delhi!

0:18:45 > 0:18:52- See, sahib. Plenty of the steam. - But is it coming from the right places?!- What right places?

0:18:52 > 0:18:57All right. Victoria is old, I admit. But she has experience, sahib.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00With experience, nothing can go wrong.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03SHRILL WHISTLING

0:19:04 > 0:19:06WHISTLING STOPS

0:19:06 > 0:19:09It is not the fault of Victoria.

0:19:09 > 0:19:15I have asked them many times to give me one little day for repair

0:19:15 > 0:19:18but no, like you, they said Victoria is old,

0:19:18 > 0:19:22no good except for shunting. Nobody understand.

0:19:22 > 0:19:28- Kalapur is over 300 miles away. - What's 300 miles to this engine?!

0:19:28 > 0:19:34She used to do the Karachi run two times in one week. One week, two times!

0:19:34 > 0:19:41- How many years ago?- Look at the boiler. Not even one inch of steam is escaping from it.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44If the boiler is good, the engine is good!

0:19:44 > 0:19:48Look for yourself...

0:19:48 > 0:19:55That is only piston-bearing which is not good. That is why steam is escaping.

0:19:55 > 0:20:00- Is that all that's wrong?- I have been for 30 years in the railway service.

0:20:00 > 0:20:05- You think I don't know?- No, I think you do know. We shall need a coach.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Coach, sahib? Only that one.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10That's broken down.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Will those wheels over there fit?

0:20:13 > 0:20:17Yes, sahib. They are very fitting wheels.

0:20:17 > 0:20:24How many miles per hour could Victoria go, pulling just one coach?

0:20:24 > 0:20:25- At least 50.- 50?!

0:20:25 > 0:20:30Well, at least 40 miles. When it is mended, you don't know what speed!

0:20:30 > 0:20:37- She is very speedy! - She'll be mended, and the coach. The only other problem is coal.

0:20:37 > 0:20:42- We need five times much more coal. - But where can we put it? Have you got a truck?

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Yes, in the shed.

0:20:45 > 0:20:51- I'll send some sappers down.- You will never be sorrowful for this judgment.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54I hope you're right, Gupta.

0:20:56 > 0:20:57SHRILL WHISTLING

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Get that damned thing fixed!

0:20:59 > 0:21:01SHRILL WHISTLING

0:21:07 > 0:21:11She is like lady. She shout too much when she is happy!

0:21:11 > 0:21:15- Come on, you must know one way or another.- These rumours must have some foundation!

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Rumour is seldom backed by truth.

0:21:18 > 0:21:24- Is the Prince here?- Of course he's here!- Gentlemen, when the time comes, you will be told..

0:21:24 > 0:21:29- Trust us.- We know they killed the boy's father...

0:21:29 > 0:21:35- Gentlemen, I know nothing!- Sir John wants you upstairs.- (Thank heavens!)

0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Excuse me.- Just tell us...- There will be no statement yet.

0:21:38 > 0:21:45- Why is the city being attacked? - Doesn't the situation hinge on Prince Kishan?

0:21:45 > 0:21:49His Excellency has never denied that. This province has been loyal to Kishan's family.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52While he is alive, there is no possibility of a successful rebellion!

0:21:52 > 0:21:53Then he IS alive!

0:21:53 > 0:21:56The governor will make a statement tomorrow. There's no hurry.

0:21:56 > 0:21:59It's impossible to get your dispatches out, the wires have been cut.

0:21:59 > 0:22:00Just tell us the truth!

0:22:00 > 0:22:02CLAMOURING VOICES

0:22:02 > 0:22:09- Mr Peters, you wish to go to Kalapur.- Yes, I must be in Delhi on Friday.

0:22:09 > 0:22:14You're in luck. Can you fire those rifles you're so good at selling?

0:22:14 > 0:22:18- Our company is impartial. - Your customers aren't!

0:22:18 > 0:22:23- Would you all sit down?- Sir John, there's no need for ME to go.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27- Someone has to be officially responsible for the dispatch box. - Yes, I now.

0:22:27 > 0:22:33I've chosen you. And I know you'll look after my wife. It's not for ever, you'll be back!

0:22:33 > 0:22:38It's settled. I'd like you all to be in the station yard by 11.15.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Captain Scott, explain the plan.

0:22:40 > 0:22:46I don't intend to be a schoolmaster... but here's our position.

0:22:46 > 0:22:51The point is, the rebels think that the last train has gone.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53But we have another engine.

0:22:53 > 0:22:58Also, the outer gate on the railway is in their hands

0:22:58 > 0:23:00and is, obviously, shut.

0:23:00 > 0:23:07I'm afraid I'm not an artist. Now, we hold the inner gate.

0:23:07 > 0:23:12Between these two gates, there's a gradient.

0:23:12 > 0:23:18Victoria is a wonderful old engine but she makes an awful lot of noise...

0:23:18 > 0:23:22so although we'll have steam up, we're going to free-wheel.

0:23:22 > 0:23:27We ought to get up enough speed to smash through the outer gate

0:23:27 > 0:23:30before they know what's hit them!

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Well...that's roughly the plan.

0:23:33 > 0:23:40I admit, anything could happen. They may have blocked the line to keep out reinforcements.

0:23:40 > 0:23:46- But we'll face that if and when... - RAISED VOICES: You can't go in...!

0:23:47 > 0:23:53So it's true. He IS here. - Sorry, he must have bribed someone. he came up the back stairs.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Send this man away. He worries me. - Please leave, Mr Van Leyden.

0:23:56 > 0:24:03- You are going to try to get him out? Impossible!- Come on!- Leave him.

0:24:03 > 0:24:07Since you know the salient points, there's no need to throw you out.

0:24:07 > 0:24:11By train? With the outer gate in enemy hands? What a story!

0:24:11 > 0:24:18One that won't reach the papers! - Not unless...I went on the train also!

0:24:18 > 0:24:24- Well?- There are a thousand people out there I'd send first. - Of course(!)

0:24:24 > 0:24:28None of you like me. I don't know about you, madam. How do you do?

0:24:28 > 0:24:35Now you have your story and no chance of getting it to your newspaper, perhaps you'll leave the room!

0:24:35 > 0:24:39What would happen to your train if those thousands of people down there knew about it?!

0:24:39 > 0:24:43They'd tear it to pieces rather than let it go without them

0:24:43 > 0:24:50- But it's a secret. Nobody could possibly know(!)- Mr Van Leyden...

0:24:50 > 0:24:54it is just possible that the newspapers should know of our predicament.

0:24:54 > 0:25:01- No, no. It's of no importance. - Mr Van Leyden!- Yes?

0:25:01 > 0:25:05- You may go on the train.- Why, thank you, Sir John(!)

0:25:05 > 0:25:08We understand each other.

0:25:08 > 0:25:15Your luggage must be at the yard by 11. I'll go and check the dispatch box.

0:25:15 > 0:25:19- Where are you going?- To get my bag. - That's an excellent idea.

0:25:19 > 0:25:27- I see! If I go now, I'll miss the train.- Yes, Mr Van Leyden. - In that case, I shall travel light.

0:25:27 > 0:25:33Look, I keep excellent company. "The Decline And Fall Of An Empire." Roman, not British(!)

0:25:38 > 0:25:45- You haven't given me a chance to speak to you.- Go and get your things ready, my dear.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47They ARE ready, but I'm not going.

0:25:47 > 0:25:54This little boy is very important, isn't he? And yet you're prepared to risk this...

0:25:54 > 0:26:00- Such a tremendous risk. We can't hold out here, isn't that it?- We have every hope.

0:26:00 > 0:26:06- Everybody HOPES(!)- You're going. - I'm not. I'm staying here with you.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10My dear, can't you see I really have no right to go...

0:26:10 > 0:26:16Right?! Haven't I MY rights? Am I governor of a province for nothing?

0:26:16 > 0:26:22- I can't be so selfish...- I- am being selfish! For once,- I- am being selfish!

0:26:22 > 0:26:24You're going and that's that!

0:26:25 > 0:26:28(That's that, my dear.)

0:26:40 > 0:26:43Your luggage has been loaded. Will you board the train, please?

0:26:47 > 0:26:50THEY TALK IN HINDUSTANI

0:26:51 > 0:26:53You've got a complete set of tools in there.

0:26:53 > 0:26:59- Crowbars? Pickaxes?- All there.- The mountings are still firing too high.

0:26:59 > 0:27:05- There wasn't time to fix them. - Let's hope they keep their distance.- Good luck.- Thanks.

0:27:10 > 0:27:14Cheer up. I'm sure those gates aren't as strong as they look.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18It's not that. It's... I'd rather stay behind.

0:27:18 > 0:27:22Haserabad is not a very good place to be right now.

0:27:22 > 0:27:27It's my home. When I left my little house a few minutes ago,

0:27:27 > 0:27:30I had a feeling that I'd never see it again.

0:27:41 > 0:27:46- Satisfied? - Are you trying to kill us all? - We're trying to save you.

0:27:46 > 0:27:50- Such British optimism! - YOU'RE British.- My PASSPORT is!

0:27:50 > 0:27:55- You really think we can get through? - I wouldn't try it otherwise.

0:27:55 > 0:28:01- Of course you would(!) You've been ordered to.- Get aboard!

0:28:01 > 0:28:07- How's the pressure, Gupta?- Pressure not ready yet. But it will be in a soon moment.

0:28:16 > 0:28:19- Oh, do let me.- We'll be off soon.

0:28:19 > 0:28:26Please lie down on the floor. It may be uncomfortable but it is absolutely necessary.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29Turn that lamp out, please.

0:28:31 > 0:28:36If the train stops on this trip, don't look out of the windows,

0:28:36 > 0:28:40put the shutters up, and wait for me to come and report.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42Right.

0:28:44 > 0:28:50- How is she now, Gupta?- Now it is forcing. It will be ready in a very soon moment.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56(Lie down right here.)

0:28:56 > 0:29:01- Mrs Wyatt, there is more room here. - I'm quite happy here.

0:29:01 > 0:29:06Never mind. Americans are, by tradition, isolationists(!)

0:29:06 > 0:29:10Now it is terribly ready, sahib.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16Is everybody all right? Good.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19We're off.

0:29:19 > 0:29:20For better or worse.

0:29:25 > 0:29:29- Ready to move off, sir. - Good luck, Captain Scott.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31Thank you, sir.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26Close the fire-door, Gupta!

0:30:42 > 0:30:46WHISTLE BLOWS

0:30:46 > 0:30:48Let her go, Gupta!

0:30:48 > 0:30:50MEN YELL

0:30:50 > 0:30:52TRAIN BUILDS UP STEAM

0:31:28 > 0:31:32Keep down! We'll soon be clear!

0:32:03 > 0:32:06THEY CHAT IN HINDUSTANI

0:32:08 > 0:32:11- Morning, Mr Peters.- Morning.

0:32:15 > 0:32:20Here! Sorry it's a Lee Enfield - a rival firm. Ten rounds.

0:32:20 > 0:32:25- I've never used one of these things. - They're for killing people(!)

0:32:25 > 0:32:32- Why despise those who sell you your tools?- A soldier's job is not primarily to kill.- No?!

0:32:32 > 0:32:39- We keep order - prevent your buyers from destroying each other. - You really believe that?- Yes, I do.

0:32:39 > 0:32:46- What I dislike is that you sell your stuff without discrimination. - You think we should be like God -

0:32:48 > 0:32:50..only on the side of the British(?)

0:32:50 > 0:32:55But everyone thinks God's on their side!

0:32:55 > 0:33:00- Including these rebels.- They're only children - but these aren't toys.

0:33:00 > 0:33:07They're not children. They're grown men, fighting for the freedom of their country.

0:33:07 > 0:33:12- You see?- YOU'LL see when you get hit by one of your own bullets.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15I'm not ashamed of my trade.

0:33:15 > 0:33:20MEN make wars. Before there were guns, men used swords, spears...

0:33:20 > 0:33:23anything... Oh, go away. I'm sleepy!

0:33:23 > 0:33:26Here. Or can't YOU shoot, either?!

0:33:28 > 0:33:34Oh, yes, I can shoot. Newspaper men have to protect themselves sometimes.

0:33:34 > 0:33:38I'm not surprised, if you write lies(!)

0:33:38 > 0:33:42- I'm honoured that you read my reports.- Of course I do.

0:33:42 > 0:33:47But truth is like God, not always behind the British.

0:33:47 > 0:33:50We're used to being mocked. Half the world mocks us.

0:33:50 > 0:33:57- And half the world is civilised only because of us.- Good for you, ma'am!

0:33:57 > 0:34:01Excellent(!) Excellent(!) Already we split into factions.

0:34:01 > 0:34:08Our little train trundling across this desert is like our little world trundling through space.

0:34:08 > 0:34:13- Mr Peters will sell us guns to fight each other!- Delighted!

0:34:13 > 0:34:19While men stand around arguing, who does the work? WE do, as usual.

0:34:19 > 0:34:25- This journey's dangerous enough as it is!- Arizona isn't England.

0:34:25 > 0:34:32- My father never let me out without one of these!- I doubt if I could hit anyone.

0:34:32 > 0:34:38- Mr Bridie.- I've never shot anyone in my life.- I hope you won't have to.

0:34:38 > 0:34:42I once won a cigarette case on Brighton Pier.

0:34:42 > 0:34:46- All- I- ever won was a bag of sweets. Here, 15 rounds.

0:34:46 > 0:34:52- I'm sure Gupta and the sergeant are ready for one of these. Would you...?- With pleasure.

0:34:58 > 0:35:01SPEAKS IN HINDUSTANI

0:35:07 > 0:35:09Thanks, sahib. Much thanks.

0:35:12 > 0:35:17This very nice engine. Your friends did not admit?

0:35:17 > 0:35:21- You may need this. - No gun for Gupta.

0:35:21 > 0:35:26Gupta only engine driver, very good engine driver for 30 years.

0:35:26 > 0:35:31- It may be a question of this or no more years as a driver.- No.

0:35:31 > 0:35:36Gupta, Indian. Indian to kill Indian not very good.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40- Sahib think Gupta foolish?- No, I don't think that.

0:35:40 > 0:35:46If other man has other religion, why should Gupta mind? Gupta not mind.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Sahib!

0:35:50 > 0:35:52Pull up!

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Sahib, on the other line!

0:36:05 > 0:36:10- Shutters up? Good. Please stay here. - Trouble?- Not for YOU to worry about.

0:36:13 > 0:36:16SHOUTS ORDERS IN HINDUSTANI

0:36:21 > 0:36:26Gupta! If you hear firing, get back as quickly as possible!

0:36:26 > 0:36:30Yes, sahib. But sahib also to look after himself.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17VULTURES SCREECH

0:37:17 > 0:37:21CONTINUOUS BUZZ OF FLIES

0:37:56 > 0:37:58I'm glad to see it makes you sick.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01I told you to stay in the train!

0:38:01 > 0:38:06I'm a reporter. It is my duty to look...and to report.

0:38:06 > 0:38:12All right! Have a good look!

0:38:12 > 0:38:15See what happens when the British aren't around to keep order!

0:38:15 > 0:38:17Keep order? You?! Huh!

0:38:17 > 0:38:24You divide. You set Muslim against Hindu. You divide in order to rule, that's what you do!

0:38:24 > 0:38:29Muslims were fighting Hindus for hundreds of years before we came!

0:38:29 > 0:38:35- Now get back on that train! - All right, I'm going. I've seen enough.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45You call THIS keeping order(?)

0:38:47 > 0:38:50HE ORDERS IN HINDUSTANI

0:39:10 > 0:39:13- Kishan, do stop playing with that. - Come along, Kishan. Come and eat.

0:39:13 > 0:39:17It's dangerous to stay here so long.

0:39:17 > 0:39:21What does Scott think he's doing? He's supposed to be protecting us!

0:39:25 > 0:39:28- What's holding us up? - What's happened?

0:39:28 > 0:39:33- Tell us, we can't all go and look. - No!- Please, Mr Van Leyden.

0:39:33 > 0:39:39- It's the refugee train.- What's it doing here?- Is something wrong?

0:39:39 > 0:39:42- Can we help? - Is there anything we can do?

0:39:42 > 0:39:46Do? Do? There is nothing you can do! ANY of you!

0:39:46 > 0:39:52Except...go HOME! And...and keep order there... and stay there for GOOD!

0:40:00 > 0:40:06I'm sorry. There's nothing we can do. They're all dead.

0:40:06 > 0:40:12- But there were hundreds of people on that train! How do you know they're ALL dead?- We're moving on.

0:40:12 > 0:40:19- There may be somebody alive! We cannot go without being sure.- I've seen all this before.

0:40:19 > 0:40:25When those devils do a job, they do it properly.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27Gupta! Move on!

0:40:35 > 0:40:40Hold it! Mrs Wyatt, please get back on the train. Mrs Wyatt!

0:40:42 > 0:40:48You can't court-martial her. She's not a soldier, and neither are we!

0:40:50 > 0:40:54If sahib permits, then Gupta to try bringing back the memsahib?

0:40:54 > 0:40:59No, Gupta. Let the memsahib find out for herself.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42Come on. We'll move up.

0:43:13 > 0:43:16BABY CRIES GENTLY

0:43:28 > 0:43:31Let's get on the train.

0:43:54 > 0:44:00- A chance in a million. The mother had covered him with her body. Nobody...- No need to make excuses.

0:44:00 > 0:44:04I was wrong and... Where's Kishan?

0:44:07 > 0:44:09MUSIC BOX PLAYS

0:44:09 > 0:44:12I thought it better that he, er...

0:44:12 > 0:44:15shouldn't see the, er...

0:44:15 > 0:44:20I have just the thing to put the little blighter in. Look!

0:44:21 > 0:44:25That was a very courageous thing to do, my dear.

0:44:28 > 0:44:31Funny, they always used to pull my leg about this case.

0:44:31 > 0:44:35"There goes Bridie with the baby", they used to say!

0:44:35 > 0:44:39It looks as if they were right! There now!

0:44:39 > 0:44:42- These will make it soft. - Excellent!

0:44:42 > 0:44:47One life saved, and thousands lost(!)

0:44:51 > 0:44:54Shall we give him a pillow for luck?

0:45:06 > 0:45:10Laska, driver of that engine, was friend of mine, sahib.

0:45:10 > 0:45:1430 years on the railway train service.

0:45:14 > 0:45:18He had...four small children, sahib.

0:45:21 > 0:45:28You know, sahib...sometimes I want to get hold of my people, ALL my people,

0:45:28 > 0:45:32and beat their heads together to put a little sense into them!

0:45:44 > 0:45:52- Gupta, she's hardly moving! Can't she do better?- She is old. She it totally doing her best!

0:45:52 > 0:45:57- It's not good enough!- There is no more of the steam!- Find some!

0:46:01 > 0:46:06Gupta! You can't stop wherever you like! You're under army orders!

0:46:06 > 0:46:13- No army orders! She cannot do it! - You promised she'd get to Kalapur. - And she will! But not with this!

0:46:13 > 0:46:19Is that ALL? Don't you ever frighten me like that again! We'll soon get that off.

0:46:19 > 0:46:23ASKS FOR CROWBAR IN HINDUSTANI

0:46:25 > 0:46:29We're stopping for a few minutes to do some minor repairs.

0:46:32 > 0:46:38We seem to stop every two or three miles. When will Scott get us to Kalapur?

0:46:38 > 0:46:40He'll get you there all right.

0:46:50 > 0:46:54Mr Van Leyden, would you pass me my case? It's on the rack above your head.

0:47:05 > 0:47:07Yes, that's it.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Thank you.

0:47:46 > 0:47:51- Ah! Thank you! The boys on the engine could do with a drop, too.- I'll bring it.

0:47:53 > 0:47:55I'm...sorry.

0:47:57 > 0:48:03About the baby? You needn't be. It was a fine thing to do.

0:48:03 > 0:48:05That's not why I did it.

0:48:05 > 0:48:12- You wouldn't understand.- I think I DO. You were married to a doctor, a very fine one.

0:48:12 > 0:48:16He died trying to save people's lives.

0:48:16 > 0:48:23- It would be impossible for you not to live up to his ideals. Aren't I right?- Yes...

0:48:23 > 0:48:26but for all the wrong reasons.

0:48:26 > 0:48:29I didn't live up to them. I hated them.

0:48:29 > 0:48:35I hated the squalor and the dirt. I hated his being a doctor at all.

0:48:35 > 0:48:39I left him once and went back to the States.

0:48:39 > 0:48:43One does learn, though, even if it IS a bit late in the day.

0:48:43 > 0:48:47Does that make sense?

0:48:47 > 0:48:50Yes, it makes sense. I may be one of

0:48:50 > 0:48:55the brutal and licentious soldiery, but I'm not a blockhead.

0:48:55 > 0:48:58He would have been astounded to see me getting on that train.

0:48:58 > 0:49:01- How IS young India?- Fine.

0:49:01 > 0:49:06- How will we feed him?- Mr Bridie has an idea to do with a leather glove.

0:49:06 > 0:49:08- Have we got one?- Lady Windham has.

0:49:08 > 0:49:13She has everything in that handbag of hers - smelling salts, cards,

0:49:13 > 0:49:17iodine, bandages, even The Times!

0:49:17 > 0:49:22- How about that drink for the boys? And I'D like a cup of tea!- Coffee?

0:49:22 > 0:49:26- Or would that bring the Empire down?!- Tea.

0:49:38 > 0:49:45- You were happy at Haserabad, weren't you?- Yes, it's my home. I've lived there for 21 years.

0:49:45 > 0:49:50- I was happy there, too.- It's a bit different for you, if I may say so.

0:49:50 > 0:49:57I have only a half-sister, living in Birmingham. Her husband doesn't like me much.

0:49:57 > 0:50:00So really, I'm...alone.

0:50:00 > 0:50:05It's not so different from me. I do have a few relations in England but...

0:50:05 > 0:50:07I had to leave my dog behind.

0:50:07 > 0:50:11He wasn't much but...he WAS mine.

0:50:11 > 0:50:14I had to leave my husband behind.

0:50:14 > 0:50:20- Oh, I'm sorry... I didn't mean... - Haserabad was your home for 21 years.

0:50:20 > 0:50:25In that time, I haven't had a home, just a succession of big houses...

0:50:25 > 0:50:29My husband has been my home... wherever HE is...

0:50:29 > 0:50:32How could I have been so thoughtless...

0:50:32 > 0:50:35It's all ri...

0:50:35 > 0:50:39Can I get you some water? How about a drop of whisky?

0:50:44 > 0:50:48Lady Windham...! What's the matter?

0:50:48 > 0:50:54- A woman in tears soon stops a man feeling sorry for himself.- Mr Bridie?

0:50:54 > 0:50:57He sure doesn't seem sorry for himself now!

0:50:59 > 0:51:02Your husband will be all right, I'm sure he will.

0:51:04 > 0:51:09Here we are! ..Oh, that was a near one!

0:51:09 > 0:51:14- That's better.- It's rather strong...but I'm not complaining!

0:51:14 > 0:51:20- Mrs Wyatt?- No, I should be fixing tea.- Leave it to me!

0:51:20 > 0:51:26He's happy now he's doing something. You should know that much about men.

0:51:26 > 0:51:31Maybe a doctor's wife doesn't see enough of her husband to find out.

0:51:31 > 0:51:37HE was one of his patients - thin and wasted like a starved little frog. Look at him now!

0:51:48 > 0:51:51The line is broken!

0:52:00 > 0:52:04Reverse! Quick! Back in the tunnel.

0:52:11 > 0:52:13Damn! Oh...pardon.

0:52:16 > 0:52:22They've blown up the line. Shutters up. It may have nothing to do with us.

0:52:22 > 0:52:28- It may be to prevent reinforcements getting in.- We can't just sit here!

0:52:28 > 0:52:34Can't we?! We can't go forward. And we can't go back.

0:52:34 > 0:52:38A most interesting military problem!

0:52:38 > 0:52:44A matter of common sense. One man to stand guard leaves six men.

0:52:44 > 0:52:48We'll replace that blown section with rail from behind the train.

0:52:48 > 0:52:50Impossible!

0:52:50 > 0:52:57- It's been done before.- Thank you, Mr Bridie. We'll move the train up to the damaged rail.

0:52:57 > 0:53:00Wouldn't the ladies be safer in the tunnel?

0:53:00 > 0:53:06Then we'd have 200 yards of open country to cover.

0:53:06 > 0:53:10Any more questions? Good. Let's get on with it.

0:53:10 > 0:53:14Have we more cups? A cup of tea could come in handy!

0:53:47 > 0:53:52It looks clear. As Mr Peters so wittily put it, "We can't sit here!"

0:53:52 > 0:53:58- Look!- What is it, Kishan? What did you see?

0:53:58 > 0:54:02- Something moved.- Are you sure? Where? Show me.- Up there.

0:54:02 > 0:54:05- What was it? Was it a man? - I don't know.

0:54:08 > 0:54:13You'll have ME doing it next! Don't come out until I call you and then make it quick!

0:54:34 > 0:54:37Spanners, crowbars...

0:54:37 > 0:54:42I advise the removal of jackets. It might be pretty hot out there.

0:54:42 > 0:54:45A master of understatement(!)

0:54:45 > 0:54:49An old English pastime, didn't you know?!

0:54:50 > 0:54:52Gentlemen! Out!

0:54:52 > 0:54:55Come on, come on!

0:54:57 > 0:55:00Good for you, Mr Bridie.

0:55:00 > 0:55:05- Armament merchants first. - Come on, come on!

0:55:28 > 0:55:33If anyone's out there, this is the moment they've been waiting for.

0:55:34 > 0:55:38- Send one of the Indians.- Mr Peters!

0:56:01 > 0:56:05Do that bit, sahib. Where are you going, sahib?

0:56:05 > 0:56:09This one yours. And this one yours.

0:56:10 > 0:56:14No, no. Not that way, this way.

0:56:20 > 0:56:26- Van Leyden!- Posterity must know what a resourceful hero you were!

0:56:26 > 0:56:28We want help now!

0:56:28 > 0:56:33You know, you sound like? The empire builder in distress. I am coming.

0:56:42 > 0:56:49- It's really quite pleasant to be out of the train.- You wait till you start lugging rails about!

0:56:56 > 0:56:58STEAM WHISTLES

0:56:58 > 0:56:59Strangle that, Gupta!

0:56:59 > 0:57:02STEAM WHISTLES

0:57:05 > 0:57:06STOPS WHISTLING

0:57:10 > 0:57:13I thought Victoria was on OUR side(!)

0:57:15 > 0:57:16As quick as you can, gentlemen!

0:58:09 > 0:58:12Leave the shutter alone, Kishan.

0:58:15 > 0:58:20Come and we'll build a card-house, Kishan. I'll show you how.

0:58:21 > 0:58:24Now, gather up the cards first.

0:58:59 > 0:59:02Now, we'll start on the second floor.

0:59:02 > 0:59:05Now, you put your wall up there.

0:59:13 > 0:59:17I shall put...one roof there... Now, yours.

0:59:19 > 0:59:21Ahh...

0:59:21 > 0:59:25This is NOW a most intriguing situation.

0:59:25 > 0:59:31No rail in front and no rail behind. What if you are attacked?

0:59:31 > 0:59:34Trust you to think of that!

0:59:35 > 0:59:40We've got two floors... Let's try and get another.

0:59:40 > 0:59:43Oh, dear, we shall have to start that one again.

0:59:50 > 0:59:53BABY CRIES

0:59:58 > 1:00:02- Look, there it is!- A heliograph!

1:00:08 > 1:00:11- What does that light mean? - It means they've found us!

1:00:11 > 1:00:12Ought we to open fire?

1:00:12 > 1:00:16It's a waste of time at this range. We'll have to work fast. Come on!

1:00:28 > 1:00:30Sit down here, Kishan. - Why?

1:00:30 > 1:00:34Just do as you're told, darling. Right in this corner.

1:01:16 > 1:01:19RUMBLE OF LOOSE ROCK

1:01:31 > 1:01:33All right. Back to the coach.

1:01:33 > 1:01:35I'll put the two last bolts in the other end.

1:01:43 > 1:01:44COCKS RIFLE

1:01:48 > 1:01:50FIRES SHOT

1:01:54 > 1:01:58Back in the carriage, quickly! Keep your heads down!

1:01:58 > 1:02:01CONTINUOUS GUNFIRE

1:02:02 > 1:02:05Gupta! Get back!

1:03:08 > 1:03:11Gupta! Covering fire!

1:03:29 > 1:03:32O my Father God, don't be careless to save your Indian son.

1:04:07 > 1:04:09YELLS ORDER TO CHARGE

1:04:58 > 1:05:00Right, Gupta, get moving!

1:05:30 > 1:05:34- Have you been hit?- Yes, sahib.

1:05:34 > 1:05:38But he was careful to hit me only at the foot of the leg

1:05:38 > 1:05:41and a little bit in the arm also.

1:05:41 > 1:05:43We'll soon fix you up.

1:05:43 > 1:05:48When we reach the plain, we can relax a bit, I hope.

1:05:48 > 1:05:52Yes, sahib. And Gupta will teach you to drive Victoria.

1:05:52 > 1:05:57- I'll be back when I see how they are in the coach.- Yes, sahib.- You did well!

1:06:09 > 1:06:13- Pressure's dropping. - Victoria wants water.

1:06:13 > 1:06:18- How far is the next station? - 20 miles distant.

1:06:18 > 1:06:22- Will she make it?- Oh, yes. But slowly, slowly.

1:06:22 > 1:06:23LETS OFF STEAM

1:06:23 > 1:06:29- How's that?- That very all right. Sahib is engine-driver now.

1:06:29 > 1:06:32This time tomorrow we'll have you in hospital.

1:06:32 > 1:06:37- No, Gupta does not like to live in hospitals.- Why not?

1:06:37 > 1:06:42- Those nurses, they are not women. - Oh-ho! You'd be surprised!

1:06:42 > 1:06:45She is going too quick! The compression is losing.

1:06:48 > 1:06:53Good! Victoria talks to me... I understand her language.

1:06:53 > 1:06:57Just as well. I can't understand a word she says!

1:06:57 > 1:07:02- It's ridiculous. I could WALK quicker!- There's nothing to stop you.

1:07:04 > 1:07:10Why DO the British buy these things?! Our models are twice as good!

1:07:10 > 1:07:16- Twice as "good"? You mean, it can kill twice as many people?- Exactly!

1:07:16 > 1:07:20And twice as fast. It's ingenious! But this thing...!

1:07:23 > 1:07:26It won't fire again?

1:07:28 > 1:07:30No, not a hope!

1:07:37 > 1:07:41Now THIS you might call "ingenious".

1:07:41 > 1:07:46And it's a life-SAVER, not a life-destroyer!

1:07:46 > 1:07:48You? A sentimentalist?!

1:07:48 > 1:07:52- Most ruthless men ARE. - ME? Ruthless?

1:07:53 > 1:07:57You write ruthless cruel sensationalism.

1:07:57 > 1:08:01I'm flattered that you read my work so attentively.

1:08:01 > 1:08:07With newspapers, one must take the good with the bad - the informed AND the shoddy.

1:08:08 > 1:08:10Thank you(!)

1:08:10 > 1:08:13You know you do a lot of harm, don't you?

1:08:13 > 1:08:16Sometimes I think you even incite violence.

1:08:16 > 1:08:20The cure for some diseases is often violent.

1:08:20 > 1:08:24WAR is like that! And it's sometimes the ONLY cure!

1:08:26 > 1:08:30I'm sorry. I was just quoting from one of my "shoddy" articles.

1:08:38 > 1:08:40- Is Gupta in the sun?- Yes.

1:08:40 > 1:08:45If that wound dries superficially, anything could happen in this climate.

1:08:46 > 1:08:50- When can I drive the engine?- Tomorrow, perhaps.

1:08:50 > 1:08:54- Will you ask Captain Scott? - You can ask him yourself.

1:08:54 > 1:08:57- No, he likes YOU! - Does he now?

1:08:57 > 1:09:03Would you take this out? It might help keep the sun off.

1:09:03 > 1:09:06I'll take it.

1:09:09 > 1:09:12Captain Scott.

1:09:14 > 1:09:19Lady Windham sent this for Gupta, to keep that wound out of the sun. I told you, she has everything!

1:09:19 > 1:09:24Gupta, I hope none of your fellow engine-drivers see you like this!

1:09:24 > 1:09:27They will be calling me Lady Gupta!

1:09:29 > 1:09:31All set for Henley Regatta!

1:09:31 > 1:09:33Who is Henry Regatta?

1:09:33 > 1:09:36"WHO is Henry Regatta?"

1:09:36 > 1:09:38It's not a "who". It's an occasion.

1:09:38 > 1:09:42All the most sahib sahibs in England get together,

1:09:42 > 1:09:45dress up in silly little hats,

1:09:45 > 1:09:47and row up and down a river.

1:09:47 > 1:09:50Very funny. Why do they do that?

1:09:50 > 1:09:54Why, indeed?! I don't know.

1:09:55 > 1:09:58It's one of the things I joined the army to get away from.

1:09:58 > 1:10:00- Pressure, sahib!- Oh...!

1:10:04 > 1:10:06There's a song that goes with it -

1:10:06 > 1:10:10# Ta-ra-ra-raaaa, ta-ra-ra

1:10:10 > 1:10:13# And a hay harvest breeze

1:10:13 > 1:10:16# Blade on the feather

1:10:16 > 1:10:20# Shade off the trees!

1:10:20 > 1:10:26# Swing, swing together With your bodies between your knees

1:10:26 > 1:10:32# Swing, swing together With your bodies between your knees

1:10:32 > 1:10:35# Swing, swing together

1:10:35 > 1:10:38# With your bodies between your knees! #

1:10:38 > 1:10:43- All together now! # Ta-ra-ra-raaa...- ta-ra-ra...

1:10:43 > 1:10:46- # Dee-dee-dee-dee - Ta-ra-ra-ra, ta-ra... #

1:10:46 > 1:10:48SCOTT SINGS AS MRS WYATT HUMS TUNE

1:10:48 > 1:10:52# ..Shade off the trees!

1:10:52 > 1:10:53# And we'll swing... #

1:10:53 > 1:10:56Mind you business, Sahib!

1:10:56 > 1:10:58# ..Harrow may be more clever

1:10:58 > 1:11:02# Rugby may make more row

1:11:02 > 1:11:05# But we'll row, row for ever

1:11:05 > 1:11:09# Steady from stroke to bow!

1:11:09 > 1:11:12# And nothing in life shall sever

1:11:12 > 1:11:15# The chain that is round us now

1:11:15 > 1:11:18# And nothing in life shall sever

1:11:18 > 1:11:22# The chain that is round us now! #

1:11:22 > 1:11:26BIRD CALLS AND BELL RINGS FAINTLY

1:11:39 > 1:11:46- I'll have to stop here.- Sahib, if you stop her now, she will never start again.- We'll take a chance.

1:11:46 > 1:11:51We'll fire the Maxim to let anyone there know we mean business.

1:11:51 > 1:11:53TALKS IN HINDUSTANI

1:11:53 > 1:11:56Keep down, everybody!

1:11:56 > 1:12:00SHOUTS ORDER TO FIRE IN HINDUSTANI

1:12:11 > 1:12:13SHOUTS ORDERS IN HINDUSTANI

1:12:33 > 1:12:37They've certainly made a shambles of this place.

1:12:37 > 1:12:41Sahib to please see if they have not spoiled the well of water

1:12:41 > 1:12:43and also if the pump is working.

1:12:43 > 1:12:47If it isn't, it's a long walk to Kalapur.

1:12:47 > 1:12:50ISSUES BRISK ORDER

1:12:54 > 1:12:56It's all right. It's safe to come down now.

1:12:59 > 1:13:03Search about for some wood, please, and take it to that pump house.

1:13:10 > 1:13:13I'm going to try and light that boiler.

1:13:13 > 1:13:15- Careful, sahib. Careful.- Uh-huh.

1:13:22 > 1:13:25If the pump works, we'll get water.

1:13:25 > 1:13:32But we have to get it to the engine so please look for something to carry it in.

1:13:32 > 1:13:38Mr Van Leyden, your survival depends on OURS. So if you don't mind, some wood?

1:13:47 > 1:13:54- How are you?- Not well, memsahib. But I will be well in a soon moment.

1:13:54 > 1:13:58- You should be in the coach.- No... Gupta must stay with his engine

1:13:58 > 1:14:03till Scott sahib becomes driver and that will be in a soon moment.

1:14:03 > 1:14:10- Don't go far, Kishan...- Memsahib has first time come to Gupta's engine.

1:14:10 > 1:14:15You must not go back empty-handed. Gupta must give you something - Indian custom.

1:14:17 > 1:14:18Bucket for water, memsahib!

1:14:24 > 1:14:28Thank you. Put it down there. If this works, we'll get water.

1:14:28 > 1:14:31And if it doesn't?

1:14:31 > 1:14:33We stay here till they kill us.

1:14:33 > 1:14:34I'd prefer it to work.

1:14:46 > 1:14:48It's all right, I think.

1:14:48 > 1:14:51Stand clear of that wheel. It'll make mincemeat of you.

1:14:51 > 1:14:53PULLS AT HANDLE

1:14:56 > 1:14:58Come on, old girl.

1:14:58 > 1:14:59PUMP JUDDERS INTO LIFE

1:15:05 > 1:15:10Good! Outside. Keep that fire going, Van Leyden!

1:15:10 > 1:15:12There it is! Fill your buckets!

1:15:12 > 1:15:16ISSUES ORDERS TO SOLDIERS

1:15:20 > 1:15:25- Gupta, where does Victoria take a drink?- Up on the roof, sahib.- Right.

1:15:30 > 1:15:32Over here!

1:15:42 > 1:15:45Kishan, you're all wet. Go over there and play.

1:16:10 > 1:16:13Thank you. Two more like that and we're away(!)

1:16:25 > 1:16:31- You look surprised! - I AM, to see you working so hard. - Everybody can, if they have to.

1:16:31 > 1:16:34Isn't the armament business hard work?

1:16:34 > 1:16:37Heavens, no! People are always fighting each other.

1:16:37 > 1:16:42Arms' salesmen are actually pursued by customers!

1:16:42 > 1:16:46- I HAVE worked hard, though, at other jobs.- What jobs?

1:16:46 > 1:16:50For years, I devoted myself to the business of marrying a rich woman.

1:16:50 > 1:16:54SHE LAUGHS It's VERY difficult!

1:16:54 > 1:17:01- Did you succeed?- Of course I did! It's funny - a man can keep a woman,

1:17:01 > 1:17:03but a woman can't keep a man.

1:17:03 > 1:17:08I ended up by despising her. Myself, too, come to that.

1:17:08 > 1:17:11It wasn't a good job, anyway. Too much hard work!

1:17:18 > 1:17:21OMINOUS SCORE

1:18:19 > 1:18:23SCORE BUILDS

1:18:31 > 1:18:34Kishan...! Stand away from that!

1:18:35 > 1:18:39What WERE you doing? You should have more sense!

1:18:39 > 1:18:41Don't fuss! I was looking after him.

1:18:46 > 1:18:48Come on, back on the train. You too.

1:18:58 > 1:19:00All aboard, please!

1:19:00 > 1:19:02ORDERS THE SOLDIERS TO BOARD

1:19:09 > 1:19:11- Right, Gupta. Kalapur! - Kalapur, sahib.

1:19:15 > 1:19:19MUSIC: "Eton Boating Song"

1:19:48 > 1:19:51Would you like some water, Gupta?

1:19:51 > 1:19:53(No water, memsahib.)

1:19:53 > 1:19:56- (Hot...)- Try to sleep.

1:20:00 > 1:20:05I understand. I will like...hospitals...after now.

1:20:28 > 1:20:30- How's Gupta?- Not too good.

1:20:30 > 1:20:35He has a fever. We shouldn't have let him stay out so long.

1:20:35 > 1:20:38- Who's driving?- The gunner, ma'am.

1:20:38 > 1:20:42- Is that safe?- I think so. Victoria is most intelligent.

1:20:42 > 1:20:47- Whisky?- Why not?- Thirst comes with the setting of the sun.- How true. Cheers.

1:20:47 > 1:20:55- Have a whisky?- No, thank you.- Come on, it'll do you good.- I... I don't drink.- What? And you a journalist?!

1:20:55 > 1:21:01- It's not an essential part of the job.- No? You surprise me.- Oh, come on! To show we're all good friends.

1:21:01 > 1:21:03I said, "No", didn't I?

1:21:09 > 1:21:13Mr Van Leyden, are you a Muslim, by any chance?

1:21:15 > 1:21:16Why should you say that?

1:21:18 > 1:21:25Because you won't touch alcohol, and this morning, you were unwilling to give Lady Windham her case -

1:21:25 > 1:21:26her pigskin case.

1:21:27 > 1:21:33- Yes, I AM a Muslim.- A Dutch Muslim? That's a bit unusual.

1:21:33 > 1:21:36Not so unusual. Many Dutch Indonesians are Muslims.

1:21:36 > 1:21:38Are you Indonesian, Mr Van Leyden,

1:21:38 > 1:21:41or half-Indonesian?

1:21:41 > 1:21:47- Yes, I am.- Why should an Indonesian be quite so anti-British?

1:21:47 > 1:21:51Indonesian, Dutch, British, Muslim, Christian...what does it matter?

1:21:51 > 1:21:57I merely sympathise with minorities fighting the aggression of big nations.

1:21:57 > 1:22:03The accident of my birth has nothing to do with you! Any of you.

1:22:03 > 1:22:05You're so right! ..Aha, young man, Snap!

1:22:08 > 1:22:10DOOR SLAMS

1:22:10 > 1:22:12An ill-natured fellow. KISHAN: Snap!

1:22:29 > 1:22:31- Cigar?- No, thank you.

1:22:31 > 1:22:35Don't be so touchy. There's no harm in being a Muslim.

1:22:35 > 1:22:37Your attitude made me think otherwise!

1:22:37 > 1:22:41- Not all Muslims support the rebels. - Thank you(!)

1:22:41 > 1:22:43But SOME do.

1:22:45 > 1:22:48- Oh? Do YOU? - ME?! I'M no Muslim!

1:22:50 > 1:22:58YOU sold them the arms! People in glasshouses should mind their own bloody business!

1:22:58 > 1:23:00- And I mean "bloody"!- How DARE you!

1:23:00 > 1:23:03CHUCKLES

1:23:03 > 1:23:08You should not be so touchy. I think I'll change my mind... I'll have that cigar after all.

1:23:27 > 1:23:32- You ought to be getting some sleep. - Pass me those scissors, will you?

1:23:37 > 1:23:39He's a lot tougher than he looks.

1:23:41 > 1:23:45- Anything else?- Yes... Would you put a little water in here?

1:23:49 > 1:23:54You're the first American woman I've met. Are they all like you?

1:23:54 > 1:23:56Why? How do I seem?

1:23:58 > 1:24:03Well...shall we say, a little bit more independent than most.

1:24:03 > 1:24:07Is that the English way of saying I'm pig-headed?!

1:24:07 > 1:24:09Let me ask YOU something.

1:24:09 > 1:24:16- Why did you join the army?- Is it such an odd thing to do?- It's crazy! Tell me why.

1:24:16 > 1:24:24Well, let me see... When I was eight years old, my grandfather gave me a box of tin soldiers.

1:24:24 > 1:24:28- And you've been playing soldiers ever since?!- If you like, yes.

1:24:28 > 1:24:32Don't you ever feel it's a waste?

1:24:32 > 1:24:38We were all given minds of our own. Why hand it over to someone else?

1:24:38 > 1:24:41A soldier can have his own mind!

1:24:41 > 1:24:47- How? He takes other people's orders whether he agrees with them or not, like a machine!- We're not machines!

1:24:47 > 1:24:50We're human beings!

1:24:50 > 1:24:56A soldier can never be that. Human beings have responsibilities.

1:24:56 > 1:25:01- This train-load isn't a responsibility?- Not YOURS - the governor's.

1:25:01 > 1:25:05If you fail to reach Kalapur, it's HIS responsibility.

1:25:05 > 1:25:10Thank you for that comforting thought(!)

1:25:10 > 1:25:17Of course I'm grateful to you... But it doesn't alter my opinion of soldiers.

1:25:17 > 1:25:18Hmm...

1:25:21 > 1:25:25Are you one of these emancipated women we're having so much trouble with at home?

1:25:25 > 1:25:32- I might be. What's wrong with that? - A lot of cranks.- A woman who has a mind of her own is NOT...!- Sssh!

1:25:32 > 1:25:35(Men who just obey orders are CRANKS!)

1:25:35 > 1:25:40You can't just do what you like. I must obey orders.

1:25:40 > 1:25:43- (Like an animal in blinkers!) - I do so agree with you.

1:25:43 > 1:25:48Have you been there... I'll punch your interfering nose!

1:25:48 > 1:25:53Tut! Tut! Actually, I was going through for a smoke.

1:25:53 > 1:25:58Never mind, the front observation platform is now vacant.

1:26:02 > 1:26:06How about a cup of tea before we turn in?

1:26:06 > 1:26:08Thank you.

1:26:08 > 1:26:16You know, I think Mr Peters was wrong to say what he said to you just now.

1:26:16 > 1:26:22What Mr Peters thinks and says is of no importance to me. I didn't mind.

1:26:22 > 1:26:28- You looked as if you did. You still DO.- Do I? Is there any sugar?

1:26:28 > 1:26:35- Of course.- Back to the footplate. Goodnight, Van Leyden. Goodnight. Mr Bridie.

1:26:35 > 1:26:38Goodnight. Don't stay out there too long. You must get some sleep.

1:26:38 > 1:26:40Goodnight, ma'am. Try and get some rest.

1:26:40 > 1:26:43Is that enough?

1:26:43 > 1:26:50I've got a lot of friends in Haserabad who are...er... of mixed blood.

1:26:51 > 1:26:58- Don't be shy, Mr Bridie. They are half-breeds. So am I. It's nothing to be ashamed of.- No, indeed.

1:26:58 > 1:27:03- They are charming people.- That is because you are charming to them.

1:27:03 > 1:27:06It's because they're my FRIENDS.

1:27:06 > 1:27:12Hmm... Half-breeds in this country are hungry for "friends".

1:27:12 > 1:27:18They spend their time worrying about what they are or are not. It's degrading.

1:27:18 > 1:27:22I'm not ashamed to be what I am. I think I'm all right.

1:27:22 > 1:27:30- I have a certain amount of power... - I don't think power has anything to do with it.- It has. It is VITAL.

1:27:30 > 1:27:36If people know that you can hit back, they are careful how they treat you.

1:27:36 > 1:27:39Don't be angry with her. She's one of the old school.

1:27:39 > 1:27:44I'm not angry. In fact, I...rather admire her.

1:27:44 > 1:27:50She is proud, tough, ruthless, unashamedly patriotic,

1:27:50 > 1:27:52a real pain in the neck!

1:28:49 > 1:28:56Oh, His Highness! I am sorry I cannot rise to bow to His Highness.

1:28:57 > 1:29:00When did you learn to drive the engine?

1:29:00 > 1:29:07I was same old as Your Highness. My father taught me. He was driver also, like your father is King.

1:29:07 > 1:29:11- Don't you want a bigger engine now? - Oh, no.

1:29:11 > 1:29:15I am in the habit of Victoria now. Bigger engines bring troublesomeness.

1:29:15 > 1:29:20People with small engines want bigger engines.

1:29:20 > 1:29:24But one morning there are no more bigger engines.

1:29:24 > 1:29:27So why not be satisfactory with small engines?

1:29:27 > 1:29:31Gupta, your English is hopeless!

1:29:31 > 1:29:37Yes, but I learn from Scott sahib. His English is very hopeful.

1:29:38 > 1:29:39Come along, Kishan.

1:29:53 > 1:29:57- We're stopping!- Oh, yes. It's the Kupra bridge.

1:29:57 > 1:30:00It's almost five years since I was here, on my way home from leave.

1:30:00 > 1:30:02Quite a contrast.

1:30:39 > 1:30:40Gupta!

1:30:43 > 1:30:49This time it's the bridge. They've blown up a section of it.

1:30:49 > 1:30:53- You'll have to walk for a bit. - Walk?! What are we going to walk ON?

1:30:53 > 1:30:58The force of the explosion went down instead of up.

1:30:58 > 1:31:03There are a couple of rails left... but with no supports.

1:31:03 > 1:31:09- We have to walk along a rail with nothing to hold on to?! - Only a few yards. It won't be easy,

1:31:09 > 1:31:15- but I think you can do it. - Mightn't this be another ambush? - I don't think so, ma'am.

1:31:15 > 1:31:18I don't think this was meant for us. I think this happened two or three days ago.

1:31:18 > 1:31:20- MRS WYATT:- You say we can walk across. What happens then?

1:31:20 > 1:31:25- BRIDIE:- If the supports have gone, will it take the weight of a train?

1:31:25 > 1:31:29I think it was meant to stop the heavier ammunition trains, refugee trains, things like that.

1:31:29 > 1:31:32I think there's enough left there to hold the weight of old Victoria.

1:31:32 > 1:31:34It's a risk we'll have to take - there's no alternative.

1:31:34 > 1:31:42- And if it IS an ambush?- The soldiers will go first with the Maxim. They can cover us.

1:31:42 > 1:31:44Come down on the bridge as soon as you're ready.

1:32:01 > 1:32:02Kumar.

1:32:06 > 1:32:08BIRD CRIES

1:32:08 > 1:32:09WIND WHISTLES

1:32:20 > 1:32:21Havildar.

1:32:32 > 1:32:35Let me have the baby now, please.

1:32:35 > 1:32:36Thank you.

1:32:48 > 1:32:50That, of course, is the army!

1:32:50 > 1:32:55I don't expect you'll find it as easy as that. Any volunteers?

1:32:58 > 1:33:01Good for you, Mr Peters. Don't look down.

1:33:05 > 1:33:07All right?

1:33:11 > 1:33:14Good!

1:33:14 > 1:33:17Ma'am...

1:33:17 > 1:33:19Step up on the rail Don't look down.

1:33:24 > 1:33:25Good for you, ma'am!

1:33:28 > 1:33:30Mr Bridie? Now, sir, on the rail.

1:33:33 > 1:33:35- Don't look down.- Oh...dear...

1:33:38 > 1:33:40- I can't move!- It's all right.

1:33:43 > 1:33:45Ha, hah! Good for you!

1:33:49 > 1:33:53Go on. Captain Scott won't let you fall.

1:33:54 > 1:33:57- I'll show you. If- I- can do it, you can.

1:34:05 > 1:34:07Don't look down.

1:34:18 > 1:34:22Good girl! I'll cross and you pass the boy over, Van Leyden.

1:34:30 > 1:34:32Thanks.

1:34:32 > 1:34:34Right, let's have him.

1:34:39 > 1:34:41Now then. Look at me, young fella.

1:34:43 > 1:34:45Keep looking at me.

1:34:48 > 1:34:51Now hold him out.

1:34:51 > 1:34:53Reach out.

1:34:53 > 1:34:57Hold him out, Van Leyden. Well, reach out with him, man!

1:35:00 > 1:35:02Look at me, young fella.

1:35:02 > 1:35:03That's a good boy.

1:35:03 > 1:35:08Don't look down... Come on, man, stretch out.

1:35:08 > 1:35:10Peters, get my waist!

1:35:12 > 1:35:13Hold him out!

1:35:15 > 1:35:18Well, what's the matter with you? Stretch him out!

1:35:18 > 1:35:22Go on. That's it. Grab the boy!

1:35:30 > 1:35:31Come on!

1:35:43 > 1:35:47- What the devil are you doing? - Please.- Please nothing! You deliberately held that boy short!

1:35:47 > 1:35:50What?! You nearly dropped him!

1:35:50 > 1:35:53And you have the audacity to blame ME?

1:35:53 > 1:35:58- That's how you wanted it to look! - Don't be childish!

1:35:58 > 1:36:01What went on in that pump house with that ruddy great flywheel?

1:36:01 > 1:36:04Pump house? Pump house? What is he talking about?

1:36:04 > 1:36:09- Let go of me!- Oh, no, I'm not letting you go! You're a Muslim.

1:36:09 > 1:36:14- I was wondering when you'd use that against me.- It's Muslims who want to kill Kishan.

1:36:14 > 1:36:17SHOUTS ORDERS TO SOLDIERS

1:36:19 > 1:36:22I'm putting you under close arrest.

1:36:22 > 1:36:29- If you do, I'll put you into every newspaper from Calcutta to Berlin. - I'll risk it!

1:36:29 > 1:36:36- I thought you had a brain despite being a professional soldier(!) - I AM a professional soldier!

1:36:36 > 1:36:39And I'M a professional journalist!

1:36:39 > 1:36:44You're going too far! I am a FREE journalist. My job is to report!

1:36:44 > 1:36:48And mine is to get that boy to Kalapur in safety!

1:36:48 > 1:36:51The man's a maniac. The sun has gone to his head.

1:36:51 > 1:36:54Don't hold the boy around the neck or he'll say you're strangling him(!)

1:36:54 > 1:36:57ORDERS GIVEN IN HINDUSTANI

1:36:59 > 1:37:01All right, Captain Scott.

1:37:01 > 1:37:06You seem determined to get into the headlines but you'll regret this!

1:37:12 > 1:37:17- For God's sake...- I can't believe... - Please get off the bridge, all of you!

1:37:17 > 1:37:22- There may be a dozen rifles aimed at you!- Anyone could have slipped!

1:37:22 > 1:37:29- You've no proof he's a murderer! - Did you have to arrest him? We could have watched him.

1:37:29 > 1:37:33For heaven's sake! Look, I could be wrong...

1:37:33 > 1:37:38but we can't take a chance with this boy's life! Please, leave the bridge.

1:37:43 > 1:37:45Please, take him off the bridge.

1:37:45 > 1:37:50- Will it take the weight? Are you sure?- Of course! I've often driven trains over blown-up bridges!

1:37:50 > 1:37:57- Stop behaving like a schoolboy! - Do you want me to tell you I haven't a hope in hell?

1:37:57 > 1:38:00I've got to do this job! It's MY responsibility!

1:38:00 > 1:38:06YOU can decide if it's a human or a military problem!

1:38:06 > 1:38:08Peters...

1:38:08 > 1:38:11- Take it fast.- The vibration will break up the structure.

1:38:11 > 1:38:14- I disagree. Dynamic weight...- Who's doing this?

1:38:14 > 1:38:16You or me?

1:38:28 > 1:38:30All right?

1:38:34 > 1:38:38- Well...here we go! - Careful, sahib.

1:38:51 > 1:38:54Stand by, Gupta. This is it!

1:39:13 > 1:39:16Hold up! Don't free the brake. Don't free the brake!

1:39:33 > 1:39:34Now throttle it.

1:39:49 > 1:39:51Slowly, slowly, slowly...

1:39:55 > 1:39:57Now...a very little bit more.

1:40:05 > 1:40:07A little bit more...

1:40:15 > 1:40:17Yes...

1:40:17 > 1:40:18Very slowly, sahib.

1:40:25 > 1:40:27It is right. Right!

1:40:29 > 1:40:31Don't worry, Gupta. She'll make it!

1:40:36 > 1:40:40She has made, sahib! She has made! Good driving!

1:40:40 > 1:40:41Oh, sahib!

1:40:41 > 1:40:44MUSIC: "Eton Boating Song"

1:40:54 > 1:40:58I am sorry about this, but I feel sure there will be a satisfactory explanation.

1:41:07 > 1:41:11- We made it!- Hurrah!- Well done!

1:41:11 > 1:41:12WHISTLE BLOWS

1:41:15 > 1:41:16- CLUNK! - Oh...

1:41:18 > 1:41:20THEY LAUGH

1:41:31 > 1:41:33HAVILDAR SPEAKS IN HINDUSTANI

1:41:39 > 1:41:46- Captain Scott?- Yes, ma'am.- I think you acted wisely over Mr Van Leyden. - If I didn't, I'm in the soup!

1:41:46 > 1:41:53- Gupta?- Yes?- Is the old girl ready to go?- She is not young, like you. She needs steam to go.

1:41:53 > 1:41:56- How long?- Not more long than five minutes.- Right.

1:42:08 > 1:42:13Hello. Isn't this carrying your dislike of soldiers too far?

1:42:13 > 1:42:15- What do you mean? - Looking so blooming miserable

1:42:15 > 1:42:19because I didn't end up as mincemeat down in the valley?!

1:42:24 > 1:42:26HE CHUCKLES

1:42:26 > 1:42:32- Now you look like an abandoned woman! I always thought you were! - I hope there are no more bridges!

1:42:32 > 1:42:37- You know you really had me scared.- I was scared, myself.

1:42:37 > 1:42:42Won't you get into trouble if you're wrong about Van Leyden?

1:42:42 > 1:42:50- Wouldn't you like to see me drummed out of my regiment, medals torn off my manly bosom?!- Do they do that?

1:42:50 > 1:42:56Oh, yes! Then my best friend hands me a loaded revolver

1:42:56 > 1:43:01and says, "It's the gentleman's way out!"

1:43:01 > 1:43:07- Catherine... - Thank you, Captain Scott.

1:43:07 > 1:43:11- William Charles Willoughby... Take your pick!- Oh, Willoughby, definitely!

1:43:15 > 1:43:17Dear me, it does seem a pity.

1:43:17 > 1:43:24I mean, after all we've been through, it would be nice to finish the journey together.

1:43:55 > 1:43:59- Can I blow the whistle? - When we reach the plain.

1:43:59 > 1:44:02- When I grow up, I will buy my own engine.- Good idea!

1:44:02 > 1:44:06Come on, stand over there and watch me.

1:44:08 > 1:44:11At last little Kishan has got his way!

1:44:11 > 1:44:15- Your play, Mr Bridie. - I'm sorry I'm so slow.

1:44:15 > 1:44:21- Do you think they've tied him up? - Stop worrying. I'm sure Captain Scott knows what he's doing.

1:44:21 > 1:44:28- Why shut him up? What can he do? - He's been shut up so that we don't have to find out what he can do!

1:44:28 > 1:44:33- I doubt if he has anything to read. - What has reading got to do with it?

1:44:33 > 1:44:37Captain Scott thinks he tried to kill Kishan. He had to lock him up!

1:44:37 > 1:44:41Let me explain the British mentality.

1:44:41 > 1:44:46While Van Leyden was a journalist, Mr Bridie disliked him intensely.

1:44:46 > 1:44:52When he said he was a half-breed, Mr Bridie felt a certain sympathy for him.

1:44:52 > 1:44:59Now that he's suspected of being a murderer, Mr Bridie will start crusading for him!

1:44:59 > 1:45:02The British love underdogs.

1:45:02 > 1:45:05It's better than kicking them!

1:45:16 > 1:45:20That tells us how much steam is in the boiler. Boom-boom-boom!

1:45:30 > 1:45:33KUMAR SPEAKS SHARPLY

1:46:02 > 1:46:06- Shall I fill the jug?- Thank you.

1:46:20 > 1:46:22So it is true, Mr Van Leyden.

1:46:25 > 1:46:28Stand up where I can see you...

1:46:31 > 1:46:34ALL of you!

1:46:37 > 1:46:39The boy, too.

1:46:41 > 1:46:43He's not here. He's out on the engine.

1:46:46 > 1:46:51You! Call the boy. CALL him!

1:46:51 > 1:46:55- No, don't. - You won't get away with this!

1:46:55 > 1:46:59I can and I will. There won't be any witnesses.

1:46:59 > 1:47:03Even if you succeed, there is another soldier who controls the engine.

1:47:03 > 1:47:06He will obey this. Call that boy!

1:47:06 > 1:47:08No.

1:47:10 > 1:47:15All right, don't call him. He won't stay out there for ever.

1:47:15 > 1:47:21If you must massacre us all... you'd better remove the safety catch!

1:47:21 > 1:47:23Keep back!

1:47:27 > 1:47:33- May I drive the train?- Presently. - When?- When I say so. Here, have a go.

1:47:34 > 1:47:37You were set from the beginning to do this!

1:47:38 > 1:47:40You find that strange?

1:47:40 > 1:47:42The man's mad!

1:47:42 > 1:47:45No more than you. Like you, ladies and gentlemen,

1:47:45 > 1:47:48- I believe in my country. - You are Dutch.

1:47:48 > 1:47:53I am Indian. My mother was Dutch. I'm a despised half-breed!

1:47:53 > 1:47:56What does killing us prove? That you're not a half-breed?

1:47:57 > 1:48:03That I am a true Muslim. That I care enough to fight for my faith,

1:48:03 > 1:48:10for a country that will be all Muslim, a FREE country! Can you understand that?

1:48:10 > 1:48:12You're a criminal. You belong in jail.

1:48:14 > 1:48:20I find the moral indignation of an armament peddler rather touching(!)

1:48:20 > 1:48:22Look!

1:48:30 > 1:48:35Mrs Wyatt, turn up the lamp. We will be passing through more tunnels,

1:48:35 > 1:48:41and I would hate to leave you all standing in the dark(!) Do as I say.

1:49:37 > 1:49:41Yes, I...I would have killed you...

1:50:08 > 1:50:09He's choking!

1:50:14 > 1:50:16See to it!

1:50:22 > 1:50:25Did you like that?

1:50:25 > 1:50:29Prince Kishan is never going to walk through that door. Neither is Captain Scott.

1:50:29 > 1:50:31Time will tell.

1:50:35 > 1:50:39I'm going to scream. Long before they get here, I'm going to warn them.

1:50:41 > 1:50:47You're afraid. It can't be easy to kill a child in cold blood.

1:50:47 > 1:50:49And the refugee train?

1:50:49 > 1:50:52When you came back, you were as sick as any of us.

1:50:53 > 1:50:56It was a useless slaughter.

1:50:56 > 1:51:01Isn't killing always useless? Has it EVER solved any problems?

1:51:01 > 1:51:04It HAS! And it will again!

1:51:05 > 1:51:10I like children as much as you do, but...that one boy...

1:51:10 > 1:51:14that one boy, he is a...a symbol...

1:51:14 > 1:51:18an outworn tradition that stands between my country and freedom!

1:51:18 > 1:51:24And I shall kill him. I MUST kill him to save the lives of thousands!

1:51:24 > 1:51:28One life, one Indian life lost, but thousands saved!

1:51:28 > 1:51:31Stand back from that door!

1:51:36 > 1:51:41- Tea-time!- Can I come back later and drive the engine?

1:51:41 > 1:51:43Of course! I promised you, didn't I?

1:51:43 > 1:51:46Ticklish?

1:52:25 > 1:52:28Hey! Hey, hey, hey...

1:52:28 > 1:52:31How can you drink tea with dirty hands?

1:52:37 > 1:52:41- HE WHISTLES - Wait a minute.

1:52:41 > 1:52:42Nobody move.

1:53:06 > 1:53:12Don't scream... I will not kill you if you don't scream.

1:53:13 > 1:53:14Don't come in!

1:53:14 > 1:53:17Down! Everybody!

1:53:20 > 1:53:22Gupta!

1:53:22 > 1:53:25Tell Havildar not to stop, it's a trap!

1:53:27 > 1:53:30It's no good, Van Leyden! You can't depress that gun any more!

1:53:54 > 1:53:58- Help Kumar!- Oh, dear, I think I've been hit.- Yes, yes, you have.

1:54:09 > 1:54:12We'll soon clean this up.

1:54:12 > 1:54:14Good heavens! They're not on the roof?!

1:55:13 > 1:55:15Am I losing much blood?

1:55:15 > 1:55:19No, it's only a scratch. You'd have hurt yourself more falling off a bicycle.

1:55:19 > 1:55:23You're wrong, Mr Peters. Mr Bridie needs to take great care.

1:55:23 > 1:55:27- First, a stiff drink, then, a sling. - Thank you, Lady Windham, you are kind.

1:55:32 > 1:55:34Where's Mr Van Leyden?

1:55:34 > 1:55:37He...er...he got off.

1:55:37 > 1:55:39He got off?!

1:55:42 > 1:55:46Oh, dear. I couldn't help liking Mr Van Leyden,

1:55:46 > 1:55:50even though he tried to drill us all full of holes.

1:55:50 > 1:55:52- Drink that.- Thank you, thank you.

1:55:52 > 1:55:56Thank you, Lady Windham. Now all our troubles are over.

1:56:21 > 1:56:23There. That's it.

1:56:23 > 1:56:28- You'd better put this on. You mustn't get any more sun on your head.- Thank you.

1:57:10 > 1:57:12Bridie!

1:57:20 > 1:57:22Feed the belt through!

1:58:51 > 1:58:55What luck! This is the Bindar Tunnel. They'll never catch us now -

1:58:55 > 1:58:59it's two miles long and twists all the way. Come along, Captain Scott.

1:59:01 > 1:59:03Captain Scott!

1:59:03 > 1:59:07Well...that's a funny thing.

1:59:11 > 1:59:15- Is he all right?- He will be.

1:59:15 > 1:59:17Get me some water, Mr Bridie.

1:59:21 > 1:59:24I don't think he can have been hit.

1:59:24 > 1:59:27No, it looks like just this wound.

1:59:27 > 1:59:31That's about the luckiest thing that ever happened.

1:59:31 > 1:59:35- Ow!- Keep still, keep still.

1:59:35 > 1:59:39Ohh...I tell you, this is a mug's game.

1:59:39 > 1:59:44Perhaps you're right. Will I put those tin soldiers back in their box?

1:59:44 > 1:59:48You'd probably want them out again tomorrow.

1:59:48 > 1:59:53- You've changed your opinion about soldiering?- Let's just say...

1:59:53 > 1:59:56I've learned a couple of things.

1:59:56 > 2:00:01Let's just say we've both learned a couple of things.

2:00:07 > 2:00:09There you are, you see.

2:01:14 > 2:01:15John's all right?

2:01:15 > 2:01:19Yes. Sir John's quite all right. The rebels never broke in.

2:01:19 > 2:01:23- Reinforcements came?- Yes, but the attack stopped when you got away.

2:01:23 > 2:01:29- We'll meet again, Captain. The Viceroy will want to meet you. - Thank you, ma'am.

2:01:29 > 2:01:33Don't forget Mr Bridie. He helped save the lot of us!

2:01:33 > 2:01:35Well, Gupta...

2:02:03 > 2:02:06Captain Scott, thank you for saving my life.

2:02:06 > 2:02:07You are my friend now.

2:02:07 > 2:02:10- I hope so.- But you are British.

2:02:10 > 2:02:15- Will I have to fight you? - Good heavens, no! Why should you?

2:02:15 > 2:02:17- My father said... - What?

2:02:17 > 2:02:20..I must fight the British to make them go away.

2:02:26 > 2:02:29I wish I could have driven the engine.

2:02:38 > 2:02:42You'll have to fight little Kishan now. That's all the thanks you get.

2:02:42 > 2:02:44That's all we ever get.
