This is India - the North-West Frontier Province, 1905. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:51 | |
A country of many religions. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
Men find many reasons for killing each other - greed, revenge, jealousy, | 0:01:57 | 0:02:03 | |
or perhaps because they worship God by different names. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
Rebel fanatics are gathering in the hills. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:20 | |
They intend to kill a six-year-old boy | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
because he is a prince and his people's future leader. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
His father, the Maharajah, | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
has appealed to us, the British, to take his son to the garrison town of Haserabad, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:38 | |
and to send him from there to safety in Delhi. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |

Piche jao! There's another gate along to the left! | 0:10:35 | 0:10:41 | |
For heaven's sake, keep that door open! | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
Hat jao! Hat jao! | 0:10:43 | 0:10:44 | |
Piche! Piche! Keep back! | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
-Very sorry, sir. -"B" Company, an apt name(!) | 0:10:51 | 0:10:55 | |
-Have they held the last train? -No, sir. It's gone. -Damn! We'd better report. | 0:10:55 | 0:11:01 | |
-Still with me? -Yes. For better or worse. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:08 | |
GIVES INSTRUCTIONS IN HINDUSTANI | 0:11:21 | 0:11:26 | |
-He'll be all right. -Of course. His people have always been soldiers. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:33 | |
There's no more I can do... | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
-Captain Scott! -I demand protection! -Excuse me... | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
-I am so glad you made it! -Mrs Wyatt, Mr Bridie. He does all the work round here. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:46 | |
His Excellency wishes to see you. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
-I'll report at once. -This way, Mrs Wyatt. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
-FRENCH ACCENT: I am a British citizen! -We ALL are, even if we have no papers as proof! | 0:11:55 | 0:12:03 | |
-Why wasn't I warned about this by cable? -The lines were cut. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:08 | |
Straight through into the ballroom. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
-Take me to the governor at once! -There's nothing he can do. The last train's gone. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:18 | |
I don't suppose having Mrs Wyatt with you made it any quicker. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
She did pretty well, sir. Not my idea of a governess! | 0:12:22 | 0:12:27 | |
Her husband was a fine doctor. He saved the boy's life once. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:31 | |
The Maharajah never forgot it. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:32 | |
-The Maharajah wouldn't leave. -No. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
Special orders from Delhi to get Prince Kishan out at once. Seems I've failed. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:42 | |
-KNOCK AT DOOR -Yes? -General Ames, sir. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
-Come in, Charles. -You got here, eventually(!) | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
-Scott did the best he could. -Where's the boy? -In the library. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |
MUSIC BOX PLAYS | 0:12:52 | 0:12:55 | |
Your Highness. Welcome to my home. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
Thank you. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
-He's very tired. -Mrs Wyatt, this is General Ames. -How do you do? | 0:13:05 | 0:13:11 | |
I'm afraid the last train has gone. We held it as long as we dared. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
I promised I'd take him to safety. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:17 | |
-It's the last thing I promised his father. -He'll be safe here. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
Do you think so(?) This is no ordinary tribal uprising! | 0:13:20 | 0:13:25 | |
-This is bigger! -We think not! | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
I'm telling you! Princes who have always been enemies are now on the same side. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:34 | |
-She's right, sir. -If you'd acted on the message I sent days ago, Kishan would be safe now! | 0:13:34 | 0:13:41 | |
-WE are the best judges of that! -Huh! The British never act till they've had tea | 0:13:41 | 0:13:47 | |
by which time it's too late! | 0:13:47 | 0:13:48 | |
SCOTT CHUCKLES | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
I'm sorry, but that's how it seems to an American. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
Forgive me. Nobody told me you'd come. I was in the hospital. | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
-My dear, you might have sent word. Your Highness. Mrs Wyatt? -Yes. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:04 | |
-I've heard of you. -How do you do? | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
The child looks exhausted. So do you, Captain Scott. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:11 | |
-I'm sure you'd like a bath. -Yes, I would. -Come along. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
-Thank you, Captain. -You're a good soldier. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:27 | |
Forgive me for speaking my mind. I believe that's what it's for. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
-All the other princes fighting together?! -She may be wrong. -I hope so. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:40 | |
-Get some rest, Scott. -Thank you, sir. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
YELLS ORDERS | 0:14:49 | 0:14:51 | |
MEN YELL AND ROAR | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
Fire! | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
They've captured the railway gates. Can we hold out? | 0:16:26 | 0:16:31 | |
Without reinforcements, we haven't a hope. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
Prince Kishan must be got out. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
-We must save his life if it's the last thing we do. -It may well be. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:42 | |
-Is Captain Scott here? -He's waiting, sir. -Send him in, please. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
-The boy is just a figurehead. -His family have been rulers for generations. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:51 | |
It's our only chance of restoring order in the province. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:56 | |
Is he so important, this one small boy? | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
I know he is. He may only be five but he's the religious | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
and political leader of hundreds of thousands of Hindus. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
-KNOCKING -Come in. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
These rebels are Muslims. If they manage to kill Kishan, the Hindus will have no leader. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:13 | |
It will be civil war on a vast scale, worse than the mutiny. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:18 | |
Scott, what are the chances of getting the prince to safety? | 0:17:18 | 0:17:23 | |
Mrs Wyatt, your presence was not requested. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:27 | |
The discussion affects me more closely than anyone else here! | 0:17:27 | 0:17:32 | |
-Quite correct. Well, Scott? -The last train has gone. -There must be another way. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:39 | |
-Horses? -No, we had to leave ours. They have a sniper on every hill. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:44 | |
-But you got through. -That was before they closed in. -Yes, right enough. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:49 | |
The prince will have to stay here. We're expecting reinforcements at any moment. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:56 | |
What you really mean is reinforcements probably will not get here in time. | 0:17:56 | 0:18:03 | |
You don't understand at all. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
It's a good way of looking at things... It just takes getting used to! | 0:18:06 | 0:18:11 | |
-Thank you, Scott. -Sir. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
EXPLOSION > | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
-There's no use your waiting. -When can I see him? Tell me when. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:23 | |
The governor is very busy. He'll see you when he can. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
-I will lodge a complaint when I get to Delhi... -IF you get to Delhi! | 0:18:25 | 0:18:30 | |
-See, sahib. Plenty of the steam. -But is it coming from the right places?! -What right places? | 0:18:45 | 0:18:52 | |
All right. Victoria is old, I admit. But she has experience, sahib. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:57 | |
With experience, nothing can go wrong. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
SHRILL WHISTLING | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
WHISTLING STOPS | 0:19:04 | 0:19:06 | |
It is not the fault of Victoria. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
I have asked them many times to give me one little day for repair | 0:19:09 | 0:19:15 | |
but no, like you, they said Victoria is old, | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
no good except for shunting. Nobody understand. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
-Kalapur is over 300 miles away. -What's 300 miles to this engine?! | 0:19:22 | 0:19:28 | |
She used to do the Karachi run two times in one week. One week, two times! | 0:19:28 | 0:19:34 | |
-How many years ago? -Look at the boiler. Not even one inch of steam is escaping from it. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:41 | |
If the boiler is good, the engine is good! | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
Look for yourself... | 0:19:44 | 0:19:48 | |
That is only piston-bearing which is not good. That is why steam is escaping. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:55 | |
-Is that all that's wrong? -I have been for 30 years in the railway service. | 0:19:55 | 0:20:00 | |
-You think I don't know? -No, I think you do know. We shall need a coach. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:05 | |
Coach, sahib? Only that one. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
That's broken down. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
Will those wheels over there fit? | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
Yes, sahib. They are very fitting wheels. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:17 | |
How many miles per hour could Victoria go, pulling just one coach? | 0:20:17 | 0:20:24 | |
-At least 50. -50?! | 0:20:24 | 0:20:25 | |
Well, at least 40 miles. When it is mended, you don't know what speed! | 0:20:25 | 0:20:30 | |
-She is very speedy! -She'll be mended, and the coach. The only other problem is coal. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:37 | |
-We need five times much more coal. -But where can we put it? Have you got a truck? | 0:20:37 | 0:20:42 | |
Yes, in the shed. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:45 | |
-I'll send some sappers down. -You will never be sorrowful for this judgment. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:51 | |
I hope you're right, Gupta. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:54 | |
SHRILL WHISTLING | 0:20:56 | 0:20:57 | |
Get that damned thing fixed! | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
SHRILL WHISTLING | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
She is like lady. She shout too much when she is happy! | 0:21:07 | 0:21:11 | |
-Come on, you must know one way or another. -These rumours must have some foundation! | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
Rumour is seldom backed by truth. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
-Is the Prince here? -Of course he's here! -Gentlemen, when the time comes, you will be told.. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:24 | |
-Trust us. -We know they killed the boy's father... | 0:21:24 | 0:21:29 | |
-Gentlemen, I know nothing! -Sir John wants you upstairs. -(Thank heavens!) | 0:21:29 | 0:21:35 | |
-Excuse me. -Just tell us... -There will be no statement yet. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
-Why is the city being attacked? -Doesn't the situation hinge on Prince Kishan? | 0:21:38 | 0:21:45 | |
His Excellency has never denied that. This province has been loyal to Kishan's family. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:49 | |
While he is alive, there is no possibility of a successful rebellion! | 0:21:49 | 0:21:52 | |
Then he IS alive! | 0:21:52 | 0:21:53 | |
The governor will make a statement tomorrow. There's no hurry. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
It's impossible to get your dispatches out, the wires have been cut. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:59 | |
Just tell us the truth! | 0:21:59 | 0:22:00 | |
CLAMOURING VOICES | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
-Mr Peters, you wish to go to Kalapur. -Yes, I must be in Delhi on Friday. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:09 | |
You're in luck. Can you fire those rifles you're so good at selling? | 0:22:09 | 0:22:14 | |
-Our company is impartial. -Your customers aren't! | 0:22:14 | 0:22:18 | |
-Would you all sit down? -Sir John, there's no need for ME to go. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:23 | |
-Someone has to be officially responsible for the dispatch box. -Yes, I now. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:27 | |
I've chosen you. And I know you'll look after my wife. It's not for ever, you'll be back! | 0:22:27 | 0:22:33 | |
It's settled. I'd like you all to be in the station yard by 11.15. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:38 | |
Captain Scott, explain the plan. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
I don't intend to be a schoolmaster... but here's our position. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:46 | |
The point is, the rebels think that the last train has gone. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:51 | |
But we have another engine. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:53 | |
Also, the outer gate on the railway is in their hands | 0:22:53 | 0:22:58 | |
and is, obviously, shut. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
I'm afraid I'm not an artist. Now, we hold the inner gate. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:07 | |
Between these two gates, there's a gradient. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:12 | |
Victoria is a wonderful old engine but she makes an awful lot of noise... | 0:23:12 | 0:23:18 | |
so although we'll have steam up, we're going to free-wheel. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
We ought to get up enough speed to smash through the outer gate | 0:23:22 | 0:23:27 | |
before they know what's hit them! | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
Well...that's roughly the plan. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
I admit, anything could happen. They may have blocked the line to keep out reinforcements. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:40 | |
-But we'll face that if and when... -RAISED VOICES: You can't go in...! | 0:23:40 | 0:23:46 | |
So it's true. He IS here. - Sorry, he must have bribed someone. he came up the back stairs. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:53 | |
-Send this man away. He worries me. -Please leave, Mr Van Leyden. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
-You are going to try to get him out? Impossible! -Come on! -Leave him. | 0:23:56 | 0:24:03 | |
Since you know the salient points, there's no need to throw you out. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:07 | |
By train? With the outer gate in enemy hands? What a story! | 0:24:07 | 0:24:11 | |
One that won't reach the papers! - Not unless...I went on the train also! | 0:24:11 | 0:24:18 | |
-Well? -There are a thousand people out there I'd send first. -Of course(!) | 0:24:18 | 0:24:24 | |
None of you like me. I don't know about you, madam. How do you do? | 0:24:24 | 0:24:28 | |
Now you have your story and no chance of getting it to your newspaper, perhaps you'll leave the room! | 0:24:28 | 0:24:35 | |
What would happen to your train if those thousands of people down there knew about it?! | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
They'd tear it to pieces rather than let it go without them | 0:24:39 | 0:24:43 | |
-But it's a secret. Nobody could possibly know(!) -Mr Van Leyden... | 0:24:43 | 0:24:50 | |
it is just possible that the newspapers should know of our predicament. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:54 | |
-No, no. It's of no importance. -Mr Van Leyden! -Yes? | 0:24:54 | 0:25:01 | |
-You may go on the train. -Why, thank you, Sir John(!) | 0:25:01 | 0:25:05 | |
We understand each other. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
Your luggage must be at the yard by 11. I'll go and check the dispatch box. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:15 | |
-Where are you going? -To get my bag. -That's an excellent idea. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:19 | |
-I see! If I go now, I'll miss the train. -Yes, Mr Van Leyden. -In that case, I shall travel light. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:27 | |
Look, I keep excellent company. "The Decline And Fall Of An Empire." Roman, not British(!) | 0:25:27 | 0:25:33 | |
-You haven't given me a chance to speak to you. -Go and get your things ready, my dear. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:45 | |
They ARE ready, but I'm not going. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
This little boy is very important, isn't he? And yet you're prepared to risk this... | 0:25:47 | 0:25:54 | |
-Such a tremendous risk. We can't hold out here, isn't that it? -We have every hope. | 0:25:54 | 0:26:00 | |
-Everybody HOPES(!) -You're going. -I'm not. I'm staying here with you. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:06 | |
My dear, can't you see I really have no right to go... | 0:26:06 | 0:26:10 | |
Right?! Haven't I MY rights? Am I governor of a province for nothing? | 0:26:10 | 0:26:16 | |
-I can't be so selfish... -I -am being selfish! For once, -I -am being selfish! | 0:26:16 | 0:26:22 | |
You're going and that's that! | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
(That's that, my dear.) | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |
Your luggage has been loaded. Will you board the train, please? | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
THEY TALK IN HINDUSTANI | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
You've got a complete set of tools in there. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:53 | |
-Crowbars? Pickaxes? -All there. -The mountings are still firing too high. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:59 | |
-There wasn't time to fix them. -Let's hope they keep their distance. -Good luck. -Thanks. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:05 | |
Cheer up. I'm sure those gates aren't as strong as they look. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:14 | |
It's not that. It's... I'd rather stay behind. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:18 | |
Haserabad is not a very good place to be right now. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
It's my home. When I left my little house a few minutes ago, | 0:27:22 | 0:27:27 | |
I had a feeling that I'd never see it again. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
-Satisfied? -Are you trying to kill us all? -We're trying to save you. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:46 | |
-Such British optimism! -YOU'RE British. -My PASSPORT is! | 0:27:46 | 0:27:50 | |
-You really think we can get through? -I wouldn't try it otherwise. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:55 | |
-Of course you would(!) You've been ordered to. -Get aboard! | 0:27:55 | 0:28:01 | |
-How's the pressure, Gupta? -Pressure not ready yet. But it will be in a soon moment. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:07 | |
-Oh, do let me. -We'll be off soon. | 0:28:16 | 0:28:19 | |
Please lie down on the floor. It may be uncomfortable but it is absolutely necessary. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:26 | |
Turn that lamp out, please. | 0:28:26 | 0:28:29 | |
If the train stops on this trip, don't look out of the windows, | 0:28:31 | 0:28:36 | |
put the shutters up, and wait for me to come and report. | 0:28:36 | 0:28:40 | |
Right. | 0:28:40 | 0:28:42 | |
-How is she now, Gupta? -Now it is forcing. It will be ready in a very soon moment. | 0:28:44 | 0:28:50 | |
(Lie down right here.) | 0:28:54 | 0:28:56 | |
-Mrs Wyatt, there is more room here. -I'm quite happy here. | 0:28:56 | 0:29:01 | |
Never mind. Americans are, by tradition, isolationists(!) | 0:29:01 | 0:29:06 | |
Now it is terribly ready, sahib. | 0:29:06 | 0:29:10 | |
Is everybody all right? Good. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:16 | |
We're off. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:19 | |
For better or worse. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:20 | |
-Ready to move off, sir. -Good luck, Captain Scott. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:29 | |
Thank you, sir. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:31 | |
Close the fire-door, Gupta! | 0:30:24 | 0:30:26 | |
WHISTLE BLOWS | 0:30:42 | 0:30:46 | |
Let her go, Gupta! | 0:30:46 | 0:30:48 | |
MEN YELL | 0:30:48 | 0:30:50 | |

Keep down! We'll soon be clear! | 0:31:28 | 0:31:32 | |
THEY CHAT IN HINDUSTANI | 0:32:03 | 0:32:06 | |
-Morning, Mr Peters. -Morning. | 0:32:08 | 0:32:11 | |
Here! Sorry it's a Lee Enfield - a rival firm. Ten rounds. | 0:32:15 | 0:32:20 | |
-I've never used one of these things. -They're for killing people(!) | 0:32:20 | 0:32:25 | |
-Why despise those who sell you your tools? -A soldier's job is not primarily to kill. -No?! | 0:32:25 | 0:32:32 | |
-We keep order - prevent your buyers from destroying each other. -You really believe that? -Yes, I do. | 0:32:32 | 0:32:39 | |
-What I dislike is that you sell your stuff without discrimination. -You think we should be like God - | 0:32:39 | 0:32:46 | |
..only on the side of the British(?) | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
But everyone thinks God's on their side! | 0:32:50 | 0:32:55 | |
-Including these rebels. -They're only children - but these aren't toys. | 0:32:55 | 0:33:00 | |
They're not children. They're grown men, fighting for the freedom of their country. | 0:33:00 | 0:33:07 | |
-You see? -YOU'LL see when you get hit by one of your own bullets. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:12 | |
I'm not ashamed of my trade. | 0:33:12 | 0:33:15 | |
MEN make wars. Before there were guns, men used swords, spears... | 0:33:15 | 0:33:20 | |
anything... Oh, go away. I'm sleepy! | 0:33:20 | 0:33:23 | |
Here. Or can't YOU shoot, either?! | 0:33:23 | 0:33:26 | |
Oh, yes, I can shoot. Newspaper men have to protect themselves sometimes. | 0:33:28 | 0:33:34 | |
I'm not surprised, if you write lies(!) | 0:33:34 | 0:33:38 | |
-I'm honoured that you read my reports. -Of course I do. | 0:33:38 | 0:33:42 | |
But truth is like God, not always behind the British. | 0:33:42 | 0:33:47 | |
We're used to being mocked. Half the world mocks us. | 0:33:47 | 0:33:50 | |
-And half the world is civilised only because of us. -Good for you, ma'am! | 0:33:50 | 0:33:57 | |
Excellent(!) Excellent(!) Already we split into factions. | 0:33:57 | 0:34:01 | |
Our little train trundling across this desert is like our little world trundling through space. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:08 | |
-Mr Peters will sell us guns to fight each other! -Delighted! | 0:34:08 | 0:34:13 | |
While men stand around arguing, who does the work? WE do, as usual. | 0:34:13 | 0:34:19 | |
-This journey's dangerous enough as it is! -Arizona isn't England. | 0:34:19 | 0:34:25 | |
-My father never let me out without one of these! -I doubt if I could hit anyone. | 0:34:25 | 0:34:32 | |
-Mr Bridie. -I've never shot anyone in my life. -I hope you won't have to. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:38 | |
I once won a cigarette case on Brighton Pier. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:42 | |
-All -I -ever won was a bag of sweets. Here, 15 rounds. | 0:34:42 | 0:34:46 | |
-I'm sure Gupta and the sergeant are ready for one of these. Would you...? -With pleasure. | 0:34:46 | 0:34:52 | |
SPEAKS IN HINDUSTANI | 0:34:58 | 0:35:01 | |
Thanks, sahib. Much thanks. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:09 | |
This very nice engine. Your friends did not admit? | 0:35:12 | 0:35:17 | |
-You may need this. -No gun for Gupta. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:21 | |
Gupta only engine driver, very good engine driver for 30 years. | 0:35:21 | 0:35:26 | |
-It may be a question of this or no more years as a driver. -No. | 0:35:26 | 0:35:31 | |
Gupta, Indian. Indian to kill Indian not very good. | 0:35:31 | 0:35:36 | |
-Sahib think Gupta foolish? -No, I don't think that. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:40 | |
If other man has other religion, why should Gupta mind? Gupta not mind. | 0:35:40 | 0:35:46 | |
Sahib! | 0:35:46 | 0:35:48 | |
Pull up! | 0:35:50 | 0:35:52 | |
Sahib, on the other line! | 0:35:55 | 0:35:57 | |
-Shutters up? Good. Please stay here. -Trouble? -Not for YOU to worry about. | 0:36:05 | 0:36:10 | |
SHOUTS ORDERS IN HINDUSTANI | 0:36:13 | 0:36:16 | |
Gupta! If you hear firing, get back as quickly as possible! | 0:36:21 | 0:36:26 | |
Yes, sahib. But sahib also to look after himself. | 0:36:26 | 0:36:30 | |

CONTINUOUS BUZZ OF FLIES | 0:37:17 | 0:37:21 | |
I'm glad to see it makes you sick. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:58 | |
I told you to stay in the train! | 0:37:58 | 0:38:01 | |
I'm a reporter. It is my duty to look...and to report. | 0:38:01 | 0:38:06 | |
All right! Have a good look! | 0:38:06 | 0:38:12 | |
See what happens when the British aren't around to keep order! | 0:38:12 | 0:38:15 | |
Keep order? You?! Huh! | 0:38:15 | 0:38:17 | |
You divide. You set Muslim against Hindu. You divide in order to rule, that's what you do! | 0:38:17 | 0:38:24 | |
Muslims were fighting Hindus for hundreds of years before we came! | 0:38:24 | 0:38:29 | |
-Now get back on that train! -All right, I'm going. I've seen enough. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:35 | |
You call THIS keeping order(?) | 0:38:42 | 0:38:45 | |
HE ORDERS IN HINDUSTANI | 0:38:47 | 0:38:50 | |
-Kishan, do stop playing with that. -Come along, Kishan. Come and eat. | 0:39:10 | 0:39:13 | |
It's dangerous to stay here so long. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:17 | |
What does Scott think he's doing? He's supposed to be protecting us! | 0:39:17 | 0:39:21 | |
-What's holding us up? -What's happened? | 0:39:25 | 0:39:28 | |
-Tell us, we can't all go and look. -No! -Please, Mr Van Leyden. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:33 | |
-It's the refugee train. -What's it doing here? -Is something wrong? | 0:39:33 | 0:39:39 | |
-Can we help? -Is there anything we can do? | 0:39:39 | 0:39:42 | |
Do? Do? There is nothing you can do! ANY of you! | 0:39:42 | 0:39:46 | |
Except...go HOME! And...and keep order there... and stay there for GOOD! | 0:39:46 | 0:39:52 | |
I'm sorry. There's nothing we can do. They're all dead. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:06 | |
-But there were hundreds of people on that train! How do you know they're ALL dead? -We're moving on. | 0:40:06 | 0:40:12 | |
-There may be somebody alive! We cannot go without being sure. -I've seen all this before. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:19 | |
When those devils do a job, they do it properly. | 0:40:19 | 0:40:25 | |
Gupta! Move on! | 0:40:25 | 0:40:27 | |
Hold it! Mrs Wyatt, please get back on the train. Mrs Wyatt! | 0:40:35 | 0:40:40 | |
You can't court-martial her. She's not a soldier, and neither are we! | 0:40:42 | 0:40:48 | |
If sahib permits, then Gupta to try bringing back the memsahib? | 0:40:50 | 0:40:54 | |
No, Gupta. Let the memsahib find out for herself. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:59 | |
Come on. We'll move up. | 0:41:39 | 0:41:42 | |
BABY CRIES GENTLY | 0:43:13 | 0:43:16 | |
Let's get on the train. | 0:43:28 | 0:43:31 | |
-A chance in a million. The mother had covered him with her body. Nobody... -No need to make excuses. | 0:43:54 | 0:44:00 | |
I was wrong and... Where's Kishan? | 0:44:00 | 0:44:04 | |
MUSIC BOX PLAYS | 0:44:07 | 0:44:09 | |
I thought it better that he, er... | 0:44:09 | 0:44:12 | |
shouldn't see the, er... | 0:44:12 | 0:44:15 | |
I have just the thing to put the little blighter in. Look! | 0:44:15 | 0:44:20 | |
That was a very courageous thing to do, my dear. | 0:44:21 | 0:44:25 | |
Funny, they always used to pull my leg about this case. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:31 | |
"There goes Bridie with the baby", they used to say! | 0:44:31 | 0:44:35 | |
It looks as if they were right! There now! | 0:44:35 | 0:44:39 | |
-These will make it soft. -Excellent! | 0:44:39 | 0:44:42 | |
One life saved, and thousands lost(!) | 0:44:42 | 0:44:47 | |
Shall we give him a pillow for luck? | 0:44:51 | 0:44:54 | |
Laska, driver of that engine, was friend of mine, sahib. | 0:45:06 | 0:45:10 | |
30 years on the railway train service. | 0:45:10 | 0:45:14 | |
He had...four small children, sahib. | 0:45:14 | 0:45:18 | |
You know, sahib...sometimes I want to get hold of my people, ALL my people, | 0:45:21 | 0:45:28 | |
and beat their heads together to put a little sense into them! | 0:45:28 | 0:45:32 | |
-Gupta, she's hardly moving! Can't she do better? -She is old. She it totally doing her best! | 0:45:44 | 0:45:52 | |
-It's not good enough! -There is no more of the steam! -Find some! | 0:45:52 | 0:45:57 | |
Gupta! You can't stop wherever you like! You're under army orders! | 0:46:01 | 0:46:06 | |
-No army orders! She cannot do it! -You promised she'd get to Kalapur. -And she will! But not with this! | 0:46:06 | 0:46:13 | |
Is that ALL? Don't you ever frighten me like that again! We'll soon get that off. | 0:46:13 | 0:46:19 | |
ASKS FOR CROWBAR IN HINDUSTANI | 0:46:19 | 0:46:23 | |
We're stopping for a few minutes to do some minor repairs. | 0:46:25 | 0:46:29 | |
We seem to stop every two or three miles. When will Scott get us to Kalapur? | 0:46:32 | 0:46:38 | |
He'll get you there all right. | 0:46:38 | 0:46:40 | |
Mr Van Leyden, would you pass me my case? It's on the rack above your head. | 0:46:50 | 0:46:54 | |
Yes, that's it. | 0:47:05 | 0:47:07 | |
Thank you. | 0:47:10 | 0:47:12 | |
-Ah! Thank you! The boys on the engine could do with a drop, too. -I'll bring it. | 0:47:46 | 0:47:51 | |
I'm...sorry. | 0:47:53 | 0:47:55 | |
About the baby? You needn't be. It was a fine thing to do. | 0:47:57 | 0:48:03 | |
That's not why I did it. | 0:48:03 | 0:48:05 | |
-You wouldn't understand. -I think I DO. You were married to a doctor, a very fine one. | 0:48:05 | 0:48:12 | |
He died trying to save people's lives. | 0:48:12 | 0:48:16 | |
-It would be impossible for you not to live up to his ideals. Aren't I right? -Yes... | 0:48:16 | 0:48:23 | |
but for all the wrong reasons. | 0:48:23 | 0:48:26 | |
I didn't live up to them. I hated them. | 0:48:26 | 0:48:29 | |
I hated the squalor and the dirt. I hated his being a doctor at all. | 0:48:29 | 0:48:35 | |
I left him once and went back to the States. | 0:48:35 | 0:48:39 | |
One does learn, though, even if it IS a bit late in the day. | 0:48:39 | 0:48:43 | |
Does that make sense? | 0:48:43 | 0:48:47 | |
Yes, it makes sense. I may be one of | 0:48:47 | 0:48:50 | |
the brutal and licentious soldiery, but I'm not a blockhead. | 0:48:50 | 0:48:55 | |
He would have been astounded to see me getting on that train. | 0:48:55 | 0:48:58 | |
-How IS young India? -Fine. | 0:48:58 | 0:49:01 | |
-How will we feed him? -Mr Bridie has an idea to do with a leather glove. | 0:49:01 | 0:49:06 | |
-Have we got one? -Lady Windham has. | 0:49:06 | 0:49:08 | |
She has everything in that handbag of hers - smelling salts, cards, | 0:49:08 | 0:49:13 | |
iodine, bandages, even The Times! | 0:49:13 | 0:49:17 | |
-How about that drink for the boys? And I'D like a cup of tea! -Coffee? | 0:49:17 | 0:49:22 | |
-Or would that bring the Empire down?! -Tea. | 0:49:22 | 0:49:26 | |
-You were happy at Haserabad, weren't you? -Yes, it's my home. I've lived there for 21 years. | 0:49:38 | 0:49:45 | |
-I was happy there, too. -It's a bit different for you, if I may say so. | 0:49:45 | 0:49:50 | |
I have only a half-sister, living in Birmingham. Her husband doesn't like me much. | 0:49:50 | 0:49:57 | |
So really, I'm...alone. | 0:49:57 | 0:50:00 | |
It's not so different from me. I do have a few relations in England but... | 0:50:00 | 0:50:05 | |
I had to leave my dog behind. | 0:50:05 | 0:50:07 | |
He wasn't much but...he WAS mine. | 0:50:07 | 0:50:11 | |
I had to leave my husband behind. | 0:50:11 | 0:50:14 | |
-Oh, I'm sorry... I didn't mean... -Haserabad was your home for 21 years. | 0:50:14 | 0:50:20 | |
In that time, I haven't had a home, just a succession of big houses... | 0:50:20 | 0:50:25 | |
My husband has been my home... wherever HE is... | 0:50:25 | 0:50:29 | |
How could I have been so thoughtless... | 0:50:29 | 0:50:32 | |
It's all ri... | 0:50:32 | 0:50:35 | |
Can I get you some water? How about a drop of whisky? | 0:50:35 | 0:50:39 | |
Lady Windham...! What's the matter? | 0:50:44 | 0:50:48 | |
-A woman in tears soon stops a man feeling sorry for himself. -Mr Bridie? | 0:50:48 | 0:50:54 | |
He sure doesn't seem sorry for himself now! | 0:50:54 | 0:50:57 | |
Your husband will be all right, I'm sure he will. | 0:50:59 | 0:51:02 | |
Here we are! ..Oh, that was a near one! | 0:51:04 | 0:51:09 | |
-That's better. -It's rather strong...but I'm not complaining! | 0:51:09 | 0:51:14 | |
-Mrs Wyatt? -No, I should be fixing tea. -Leave it to me! | 0:51:14 | 0:51:20 | |
He's happy now he's doing something. You should know that much about men. | 0:51:20 | 0:51:26 | |
Maybe a doctor's wife doesn't see enough of her husband to find out. | 0:51:26 | 0:51:31 | |
HE was one of his patients - thin and wasted like a starved little frog. Look at him now! | 0:51:31 | 0:51:37 | |
The line is broken! | 0:51:48 | 0:51:51 | |
Reverse! Quick! Back in the tunnel. | 0:52:00 | 0:52:04 | |
Damn! Oh...pardon. | 0:52:11 | 0:52:13 | |
They've blown up the line. Shutters up. It may have nothing to do with us. | 0:52:16 | 0:52:22 | |
-It may be to prevent reinforcements getting in. -We can't just sit here! | 0:52:22 | 0:52:28 | |
Can't we?! We can't go forward. And we can't go back. | 0:52:28 | 0:52:34 | |
A most interesting military problem! | 0:52:34 | 0:52:38 | |
A matter of common sense. One man to stand guard leaves six men. | 0:52:38 | 0:52:44 | |
We'll replace that blown section with rail from behind the train. | 0:52:44 | 0:52:48 | |
Impossible! | 0:52:48 | 0:52:50 | |
-It's been done before. -Thank you, Mr Bridie. We'll move the train up to the damaged rail. | 0:52:50 | 0:52:57 | |
Wouldn't the ladies be safer in the tunnel? | 0:52:57 | 0:53:00 | |
Then we'd have 200 yards of open country to cover. | 0:53:00 | 0:53:06 | |
Any more questions? Good. Let's get on with it. | 0:53:06 | 0:53:10 | |
Have we more cups? A cup of tea could come in handy! | 0:53:10 | 0:53:14 | |
It looks clear. As Mr Peters so wittily put it, "We can't sit here!" | 0:53:47 | 0:53:52 | |
-Look! -What is it, Kishan? What did you see? | 0:53:52 | 0:53:58 | |
-Something moved. -Are you sure? Where? Show me. -Up there. | 0:53:58 | 0:54:02 | |
-What was it? Was it a man? -I don't know. | 0:54:02 | 0:54:05 | |
You'll have ME doing it next! Don't come out until I call you and then make it quick! | 0:54:08 | 0:54:13 | |
Spanners, crowbars... | 0:54:34 | 0:54:37 | |
I advise the removal of jackets. It might be pretty hot out there. | 0:54:37 | 0:54:42 | |
A master of understatement(!) | 0:54:42 | 0:54:45 | |
An old English pastime, didn't you know?! | 0:54:45 | 0:54:49 | |
Gentlemen! Out! | 0:54:50 | 0:54:52 | |
Come on, come on! | 0:54:52 | 0:54:55 | |
Good for you, Mr Bridie. | 0:54:57 | 0:55:00 | |
-Armament merchants first. -Come on, come on! | 0:55:00 | 0:55:05 | |
If anyone's out there, this is the moment they've been waiting for. | 0:55:28 | 0:55:33 | |
-Send one of the Indians. -Mr Peters! | 0:55:34 | 0:55:38 | |
Do that bit, sahib. Where are you going, sahib? | 0:56:01 | 0:56:05 | |
This one yours. And this one yours. | 0:56:05 | 0:56:09 | |
No, no. Not that way, this way. | 0:56:10 | 0:56:14 | |
-Van Leyden! -Posterity must know what a resourceful hero you were! | 0:56:20 | 0:56:26 | |
We want help now! | 0:56:26 | 0:56:28 | |
You know, you sound like? The empire builder in distress. I am coming. | 0:56:28 | 0:56:33 | |
-It's really quite pleasant to be out of the train. -You wait till you start lugging rails about! | 0:56:42 | 0:56:49 | |
STEAM WHISTLES | 0:56:56 | 0:56:58 | |

STOPS WHISTLING | 0:57:05 | 0:57:06 | |
I thought Victoria was on OUR side(!) | 0:57:10 | 0:57:13 | |
As quick as you can, gentlemen! | 0:57:15 | 0:57:16 | |
Leave the shutter alone, Kishan. | 0:58:09 | 0:58:12 | |
Come and we'll build a card-house, Kishan. I'll show you how. | 0:58:15 | 0:58:20 | |
Now, gather up the cards first. | 0:58:21 | 0:58:24 | |
Now, we'll start on the second floor. | 0:58:59 | 0:59:02 | |
Now, you put your wall up there. | 0:59:02 | 0:59:05 | |
I shall put...one roof there... Now, yours. | 0:59:13 | 0:59:17 | |
Ahh... | 0:59:19 | 0:59:21 | |
This is NOW a most intriguing situation. | 0:59:21 | 0:59:25 | |
No rail in front and no rail behind. What if you are attacked? | 0:59:25 | 0:59:31 | |
Trust you to think of that! | 0:59:31 | 0:59:34 | |
We've got two floors... Let's try and get another. | 0:59:35 | 0:59:40 | |
Oh, dear, we shall have to start that one again. | 0:59:40 | 0:59:43 | |
BABY CRIES | 0:59:50 | 0:59:53 | |
-Look, there it is! -A heliograph! | 0:59:58 | 1:00:02 | |
-What does that light mean? -It means they've found us! | 1:00:08 | 1:00:11 | |
Ought we to open fire? | 1:00:11 | 1:00:12 | |
It's a waste of time at this range. We'll have to work fast. Come on! | 1:00:12 | 1:00:16 | |
Sit down here, Kishan. - Why? | 1:00:28 | 1:00:30 | |
Just do as you're told, darling. Right in this corner. | 1:00:30 | 1:00:34 | |
RUMBLE OF LOOSE ROCK | 1:01:16 | 1:01:19 | |
All right. Back to the coach. | 1:01:31 | 1:01:33 | |
I'll put the two last bolts in the other end. | 1:01:33 | 1:01:35 | |
COCKS RIFLE | 1:01:43 | 1:01:44 | |
FIRES SHOT | 1:01:48 | 1:01:50 | |
Back in the carriage, quickly! Keep your heads down! | 1:01:54 | 1:01:58 | |
CONTINUOUS GUNFIRE | 1:01:58 | 1:02:01 | |
Gupta! Get back! | 1:02:02 | 1:02:05 | |
Gupta! Covering fire! | 1:03:08 | 1:03:11 | |
O my Father God, don't be careless to save your Indian son. | 1:03:29 | 1:03:32 | |
YELLS ORDER TO CHARGE | 1:04:07 | 1:04:09 | |
Right, Gupta, get moving! | 1:04:58 | 1:05:00 | |
-Have you been hit? -Yes, sahib. | 1:05:30 | 1:05:34 | |
But he was careful to hit me only at the foot of the leg | 1:05:34 | 1:05:38 | |
and a little bit in the arm also. | 1:05:38 | 1:05:41 | |
We'll soon fix you up. | 1:05:41 | 1:05:43 | |
When we reach the plain, we can relax a bit, I hope. | 1:05:43 | 1:05:48 | |
Yes, sahib. And Gupta will teach you to drive Victoria. | 1:05:48 | 1:05:52 | |
-I'll be back when I see how they are in the coach. -Yes, sahib. -You did well! | 1:05:52 | 1:05:57 | |
-Pressure's dropping. -Victoria wants water. | 1:06:09 | 1:06:13 | |
-How far is the next station? -20 miles distant. | 1:06:13 | 1:06:18 | |
-Will she make it? -Oh, yes. But slowly, slowly. | 1:06:18 | 1:06:22 | |
LETS OFF STEAM | 1:06:22 | 1:06:23 | |
-How's that? -That very all right. Sahib is engine-driver now. | 1:06:23 | 1:06:29 | |
This time tomorrow we'll have you in hospital. | 1:06:29 | 1:06:32 | |
-No, Gupta does not like to live in hospitals. -Why not? | 1:06:32 | 1:06:37 | |
-Those nurses, they are not women. -Oh-ho! You'd be surprised! | 1:06:37 | 1:06:42 | |
She is going too quick! The compression is losing. | 1:06:42 | 1:06:45 | |
Good! Victoria talks to me... I understand her language. | 1:06:48 | 1:06:53 | |
Just as well. I can't understand a word she says! | 1:06:53 | 1:06:57 | |
-It's ridiculous. I could WALK quicker! -There's nothing to stop you. | 1:06:57 | 1:07:02 | |
Why DO the British buy these things?! Our models are twice as good! | 1:07:04 | 1:07:10 | |
-Twice as "good"? You mean, it can kill twice as many people? -Exactly! | 1:07:10 | 1:07:16 | |
And twice as fast. It's ingenious! But this thing...! | 1:07:16 | 1:07:20 | |
It won't fire again? | 1:07:23 | 1:07:26 | |
No, not a hope! | 1:07:28 | 1:07:30 | |
Now THIS you might call "ingenious". | 1:07:37 | 1:07:41 | |
And it's a life-SAVER, not a life-destroyer! | 1:07:41 | 1:07:46 | |
You? A sentimentalist?! | 1:07:46 | 1:07:48 | |
-Most ruthless men ARE. -ME? Ruthless? | 1:07:48 | 1:07:52 | |
You write ruthless cruel sensationalism. | 1:07:53 | 1:07:57 | |
I'm flattered that you read my work so attentively. | 1:07:57 | 1:08:01 | |
With newspapers, one must take the good with the bad - the informed AND the shoddy. | 1:08:01 | 1:08:07 | |
Thank you(!) | 1:08:08 | 1:08:10 | |
You know you do a lot of harm, don't you? | 1:08:10 | 1:08:13 | |
Sometimes I think you even incite violence. | 1:08:13 | 1:08:16 | |
The cure for some diseases is often violent. | 1:08:16 | 1:08:20 | |
WAR is like that! And it's sometimes the ONLY cure! | 1:08:20 | 1:08:24 | |
I'm sorry. I was just quoting from one of my "shoddy" articles. | 1:08:26 | 1:08:30 | |
-Is Gupta in the sun? -Yes. | 1:08:38 | 1:08:40 | |
If that wound dries superficially, anything could happen in this climate. | 1:08:40 | 1:08:45 | |
-When can I drive the engine? -Tomorrow, perhaps. | 1:08:46 | 1:08:50 | |
-Will you ask Captain Scott? -You can ask him yourself. | 1:08:50 | 1:08:54 | |
-No, he likes YOU! -Does he now? | 1:08:54 | 1:08:57 | |
Would you take this out? It might help keep the sun off. | 1:08:57 | 1:09:03 | |
I'll take it. | 1:09:03 | 1:09:06 | |
Captain Scott. | 1:09:09 | 1:09:12 | |
Lady Windham sent this for Gupta, to keep that wound out of the sun. I told you, she has everything! | 1:09:14 | 1:09:19 | |
Gupta, I hope none of your fellow engine-drivers see you like this! | 1:09:19 | 1:09:24 | |
They will be calling me Lady Gupta! | 1:09:24 | 1:09:27 | |
All set for Henley Regatta! | 1:09:29 | 1:09:31 | |
Who is Henry Regatta? | 1:09:31 | 1:09:33 | |
"WHO is Henry Regatta?" | 1:09:33 | 1:09:36 | |
It's not a "who". It's an occasion. | 1:09:36 | 1:09:38 | |
All the most sahib sahibs in England get together, | 1:09:38 | 1:09:42 | |
dress up in silly little hats, | 1:09:42 | 1:09:45 | |
and row up and down a river. | 1:09:45 | 1:09:47 | |
Very funny. Why do they do that? | 1:09:47 | 1:09:50 | |
Why, indeed?! I don't know. | 1:09:50 | 1:09:54 | |
It's one of the things I joined the army to get away from. | 1:09:55 | 1:09:58 | |
-Pressure, sahib! -Oh...! | 1:09:58 | 1:10:00 | |
There's a song that goes with it - | 1:10:04 | 1:10:06 | |
# Ta-ra-ra-raaaa, ta-ra-ra | 1:10:06 | 1:10:10 | |
# And a hay harvest breeze | 1:10:10 | 1:10:13 | |
# Blade on the feather | 1:10:13 | 1:10:16 | |
# Shade off the trees! | 1:10:16 | 1:10:20 | |
# Swing, swing together With your bodies between your knees | 1:10:20 | 1:10:26 | |
# Swing, swing together With your bodies between your knees | 1:10:26 | 1:10:32 | |
# Swing, swing together | 1:10:32 | 1:10:35 | |
# With your bodies between your knees! # | 1:10:35 | 1:10:38 | |
-All together now! # Ta-ra-ra-raaa... -ta-ra-ra... | 1:10:38 | 1:10:43 | |
-# Dee-dee-dee-dee -Ta-ra-ra-ra, ta-ra... # | 1:10:43 | 1:10:46 | |
SCOTT SINGS AS MRS WYATT HUMS TUNE | 1:10:46 | 1:10:48 | |
# ..Shade off the trees! | 1:10:48 | 1:10:52 | |
# And we'll swing... # | 1:10:52 | 1:10:53 | |
Mind you business, Sahib! | 1:10:53 | 1:10:56 | |
# ..Harrow may be more clever | 1:10:56 | 1:10:58 | |
# Rugby may make more row | 1:10:58 | 1:11:02 | |
# But we'll row, row for ever | 1:11:02 | 1:11:05 | |
# Steady from stroke to bow! | 1:11:05 | 1:11:09 | |
# And nothing in life shall sever | 1:11:09 | 1:11:12 | |
# The chain that is round us now | 1:11:12 | 1:11:15 | |
# And nothing in life shall sever | 1:11:15 | 1:11:18 | |

BIRD CALLS AND BELL RINGS FAINTLY | 1:11:22 | 1:11:26 | |
-I'll have to stop here. -Sahib, if you stop her now, she will never start again. -We'll take a chance. | 1:11:39 | 1:11:46 | |
We'll fire the Maxim to let anyone there know we mean business. | 1:11:46 | 1:11:51 | |
TALKS IN HINDUSTANI | 1:11:51 | 1:11:53 | |

SHOUTS ORDERS IN HINDUSTANI | 1:12:11 | 1:12:13 | |
They've certainly made a shambles of this place. | 1:12:33 | 1:12:37 | |
Sahib to please see if they have not spoiled the well of water | 1:12:37 | 1:12:41 | |
and also if the pump is working. | 1:12:41 | 1:12:43 | |
If it isn't, it's a long walk to Kalapur. | 1:12:43 | 1:12:47 | |
ISSUES BRISK ORDER | 1:12:47 | 1:12:50 | |
It's all right. It's safe to come down now. | 1:12:54 | 1:12:56 | |
Search about for some wood, please, and take it to that pump house. | 1:12:59 | 1:13:03 | |
I'm going to try and light that boiler. | 1:13:10 | 1:13:13 | |
-Careful, sahib. Careful. -Uh-huh. | 1:13:13 | 1:13:15 | |
If the pump works, we'll get water. | 1:13:22 | 1:13:25 | |
But we have to get it to the engine so please look for something to carry it in. | 1:13:25 | 1:13:32 | |
Mr Van Leyden, your survival depends on OURS. So if you don't mind, some wood? | 1:13:32 | 1:13:38 | |
-How are you? -Not well, memsahib. But I will be well in a soon moment. | 1:13:47 | 1:13:54 | |
-You should be in the coach. -No... Gupta must stay with his engine | 1:13:54 | 1:13:58 | |
till Scott sahib becomes driver and that will be in a soon moment. | 1:13:58 | 1:14:03 | |
-Don't go far, Kishan... -Memsahib has first time come to Gupta's engine. | 1:14:03 | 1:14:10 | |
You must not go back empty-handed. Gupta must give you something - Indian custom. | 1:14:10 | 1:14:15 | |
Bucket for water, memsahib! | 1:14:17 | 1:14:18 | |
Thank you. Put it down there. If this works, we'll get water. | 1:14:24 | 1:14:28 | |
And if it doesn't? | 1:14:28 | 1:14:31 | |
We stay here till they kill us. | 1:14:31 | 1:14:33 | |
I'd prefer it to work. | 1:14:33 | 1:14:34 | |
It's all right, I think. | 1:14:46 | 1:14:48 | |
Stand clear of that wheel. It'll make mincemeat of you. | 1:14:48 | 1:14:51 | |
PULLS AT HANDLE | 1:14:51 | 1:14:53 | |
Come on, old girl. | 1:14:56 | 1:14:58 | |
PUMP JUDDERS INTO LIFE | 1:14:58 | 1:14:59 | |
Good! Outside. Keep that fire going, Van Leyden! | 1:15:05 | 1:15:10 | |
There it is! Fill your buckets! | 1:15:10 | 1:15:12 | |
ISSUES ORDERS TO SOLDIERS | 1:15:12 | 1:15:16 | |
-Gupta, where does Victoria take a drink? -Up on the roof, sahib. -Right. | 1:15:20 | 1:15:25 | |
Over here! | 1:15:30 | 1:15:32 | |
Kishan, you're all wet. Go over there and play. | 1:15:42 | 1:15:45 | |
Thank you. Two more like that and we're away(!) | 1:16:10 | 1:16:13 | |
-You look surprised! -I AM, to see you working so hard. -Everybody can, if they have to. | 1:16:25 | 1:16:31 | |
Isn't the armament business hard work? | 1:16:31 | 1:16:34 | |
Heavens, no! People are always fighting each other. | 1:16:34 | 1:16:37 | |
Arms' salesmen are actually pursued by customers! | 1:16:37 | 1:16:42 | |
-I HAVE worked hard, though, at other jobs. -What jobs? | 1:16:42 | 1:16:46 | |
For years, I devoted myself to the business of marrying a rich woman. | 1:16:46 | 1:16:50 | |
SHE LAUGHS It's VERY difficult! | 1:16:50 | 1:16:54 | |
-Did you succeed? -Of course I did! It's funny - a man can keep a woman, | 1:16:54 | 1:17:01 | |
but a woman can't keep a man. | 1:17:01 | 1:17:03 | |
I ended up by despising her. Myself, too, come to that. | 1:17:03 | 1:17:08 | |
It wasn't a good job, anyway. Too much hard work! | 1:17:08 | 1:17:11 | |
OMINOUS SCORE | 1:17:18 | 1:17:21 | |
SCORE BUILDS | 1:18:19 | 1:18:23 | |
Kishan...! Stand away from that! | 1:18:31 | 1:18:34 | |
What WERE you doing? You should have more sense! | 1:18:35 | 1:18:39 | |
Don't fuss! I was looking after him. | 1:18:39 | 1:18:41 | |
Come on, back on the train. You too. | 1:18:46 | 1:18:48 | |
All aboard, please! | 1:18:58 | 1:19:00 | |
ORDERS THE SOLDIERS TO BOARD | 1:19:00 | 1:19:02 | |
-Right, Gupta. Kalapur! -Kalapur, sahib. | 1:19:09 | 1:19:11 | |
MUSIC: "Eton Boating Song" | 1:19:15 | 1:19:19 | |
Would you like some water, Gupta? | 1:19:48 | 1:19:51 | |
(No water, memsahib.) | 1:19:51 | 1:19:53 | |
-(Hot...) -Try to sleep. | 1:19:53 | 1:19:56 | |
I understand. I will like...hospitals...after now. | 1:20:00 | 1:20:05 | |
-How's Gupta? -Not too good. | 1:20:28 | 1:20:30 | |
He has a fever. We shouldn't have let him stay out so long. | 1:20:30 | 1:20:35 | |
-Who's driving? -The gunner, ma'am. | 1:20:35 | 1:20:38 | |
-Is that safe? -I think so. Victoria is most intelligent. | 1:20:38 | 1:20:42 | |
-Whisky? -Why not? -Thirst comes with the setting of the sun. -How true. Cheers. | 1:20:42 | 1:20:47 | |
-Have a whisky? -No, thank you. -Come on, it'll do you good. -I... I don't drink. -What? And you a journalist?! | 1:20:47 | 1:20:55 | |
-It's not an essential part of the job. -No? You surprise me. -Oh, come on! To show we're all good friends. | 1:20:55 | 1:21:01 | |
I said, "No", didn't I? | 1:21:01 | 1:21:03 | |
Mr Van Leyden, are you a Muslim, by any chance? | 1:21:09 | 1:21:13 | |
Why should you say that? | 1:21:15 | 1:21:16 | |
Because you won't touch alcohol, and this morning, you were unwilling to give Lady Windham her case - | 1:21:18 | 1:21:25 | |
her pigskin case. | 1:21:25 | 1:21:26 | |
-Yes, I AM a Muslim. -A Dutch Muslim? That's a bit unusual. | 1:21:27 | 1:21:33 | |
Not so unusual. Many Dutch Indonesians are Muslims. | 1:21:33 | 1:21:36 | |
Are you Indonesian, Mr Van Leyden, | 1:21:36 | 1:21:38 | |
or half-Indonesian? | 1:21:38 | 1:21:41 | |
-Yes, I am. -Why should an Indonesian be quite so anti-British? | 1:21:41 | 1:21:47 | |
Indonesian, Dutch, British, Muslim, Christian...what does it matter? | 1:21:47 | 1:21:51 | |
I merely sympathise with minorities fighting the aggression of big nations. | 1:21:51 | 1:21:57 | |
The accident of my birth has nothing to do with you! Any of you. | 1:21:57 | 1:22:03 | |
You're so right! ..Aha, young man, Snap! | 1:22:03 | 1:22:05 | |
DOOR SLAMS | 1:22:08 | 1:22:10 | |
An ill-natured fellow. KISHAN: Snap! | 1:22:10 | 1:22:12 | |
-Cigar? -No, thank you. | 1:22:29 | 1:22:31 | |
Don't be so touchy. There's no harm in being a Muslim. | 1:22:31 | 1:22:35 | |
Your attitude made me think otherwise! | 1:22:35 | 1:22:37 | |
-Not all Muslims support the rebels. -Thank you(!) | 1:22:37 | 1:22:41 | |
But SOME do. | 1:22:41 | 1:22:43 | |
-Oh? Do YOU? -ME?! I'M no Muslim! | 1:22:45 | 1:22:48 | |
YOU sold them the arms! People in glasshouses should mind their own bloody business! | 1:22:50 | 1:22:58 | |
-And I mean "bloody"! -How DARE you! | 1:22:58 | 1:23:00 | |
CHUCKLES | 1:23:00 | 1:23:03 | |
You should not be so touchy. I think I'll change my mind... I'll have that cigar after all. | 1:23:03 | 1:23:08 | |
-You ought to be getting some sleep. -Pass me those scissors, will you? | 1:23:27 | 1:23:32 | |
He's a lot tougher than he looks. | 1:23:37 | 1:23:39 | |
-Anything else? -Yes... Would you put a little water in here? | 1:23:41 | 1:23:45 | |
You're the first American woman I've met. Are they all like you? | 1:23:49 | 1:23:54 | |
Why? How do I seem? | 1:23:54 | 1:23:56 | |
Well...shall we say, a little bit more independent than most. | 1:23:58 | 1:24:03 | |
Is that the English way of saying I'm pig-headed?! | 1:24:03 | 1:24:07 | |
Let me ask YOU something. | 1:24:07 | 1:24:09 | |
-Why did you join the army? -Is it such an odd thing to do? -It's crazy! Tell me why. | 1:24:09 | 1:24:16 | |
Well, let me see... When I was eight years old, my grandfather gave me a box of tin soldiers. | 1:24:16 | 1:24:24 | |
-And you've been playing soldiers ever since?! -If you like, yes. | 1:24:24 | 1:24:28 | |
Don't you ever feel it's a waste? | 1:24:28 | 1:24:32 | |
We were all given minds of our own. Why hand it over to someone else? | 1:24:32 | 1:24:38 | |
A soldier can have his own mind! | 1:24:38 | 1:24:41 | |
-How? He takes other people's orders whether he agrees with them or not, like a machine! -We're not machines! | 1:24:41 | 1:24:47 | |
We're human beings! | 1:24:47 | 1:24:50 | |
A soldier can never be that. Human beings have responsibilities. | 1:24:50 | 1:24:56 | |
-This train-load isn't a responsibility? -Not YOURS - the governor's. | 1:24:56 | 1:25:01 | |
If you fail to reach Kalapur, it's HIS responsibility. | 1:25:01 | 1:25:05 | |
Thank you for that comforting thought(!) | 1:25:05 | 1:25:10 | |
Of course I'm grateful to you... But it doesn't alter my opinion of soldiers. | 1:25:10 | 1:25:17 | |
Hmm... | 1:25:17 | 1:25:18 | |
Are you one of these emancipated women we're having so much trouble with at home? | 1:25:21 | 1:25:25 | |
-I might be. What's wrong with that? -A lot of cranks. -A woman who has a mind of her own is NOT...! -Sssh! | 1:25:25 | 1:25:32 | |
(Men who just obey orders are CRANKS!) | 1:25:32 | 1:25:35 | |
You can't just do what you like. I must obey orders. | 1:25:35 | 1:25:40 | |
-(Like an animal in blinkers!) -I do so agree with you. | 1:25:40 | 1:25:43 | |
Have you been there... I'll punch your interfering nose! | 1:25:43 | 1:25:48 | |
Tut! Tut! Actually, I was going through for a smoke. | 1:25:48 | 1:25:53 | |
Never mind, the front observation platform is now vacant. | 1:25:53 | 1:25:58 | |
How about a cup of tea before we turn in? | 1:26:02 | 1:26:06 | |
Thank you. | 1:26:06 | 1:26:08 | |
You know, I think Mr Peters was wrong to say what he said to you just now. | 1:26:08 | 1:26:16 | |
What Mr Peters thinks and says is of no importance to me. I didn't mind. | 1:26:16 | 1:26:22 | |
-You looked as if you did. You still DO. -Do I? Is there any sugar? | 1:26:22 | 1:26:28 | |
-Of course. -Back to the footplate. Goodnight, Van Leyden. Goodnight. Mr Bridie. | 1:26:28 | 1:26:35 | |
Goodnight. Don't stay out there too long. You must get some sleep. | 1:26:35 | 1:26:38 | |
Goodnight, ma'am. Try and get some rest. | 1:26:38 | 1:26:40 | |
Is that enough? | 1:26:40 | 1:26:43 | |
I've got a lot of friends in Haserabad who are...er... of mixed blood. | 1:26:43 | 1:26:50 | |
-Don't be shy, Mr Bridie. They are half-breeds. So am I. It's nothing to be ashamed of. -No, indeed. | 1:26:51 | 1:26:58 | |
-They are charming people. -That is because you are charming to them. | 1:26:58 | 1:27:03 | |
It's because they're my FRIENDS. | 1:27:03 | 1:27:06 | |
Hmm... Half-breeds in this country are hungry for "friends". | 1:27:06 | 1:27:12 | |
They spend their time worrying about what they are or are not. It's degrading. | 1:27:12 | 1:27:18 | |
I'm not ashamed to be what I am. I think I'm all right. | 1:27:18 | 1:27:22 | |
-I have a certain amount of power... -I don't think power has anything to do with it. -It has. It is VITAL. | 1:27:22 | 1:27:30 | |
If people know that you can hit back, they are careful how they treat you. | 1:27:30 | 1:27:36 | |
Don't be angry with her. She's one of the old school. | 1:27:36 | 1:27:39 | |
I'm not angry. In fact, I...rather admire her. | 1:27:39 | 1:27:44 | |
She is proud, tough, ruthless, unashamedly patriotic, | 1:27:44 | 1:27:50 | |
a real pain in the neck! | 1:27:50 | 1:27:52 | |
Oh, His Highness! I am sorry I cannot rise to bow to His Highness. | 1:28:49 | 1:28:56 | |
When did you learn to drive the engine? | 1:28:57 | 1:29:00 | |
I was same old as Your Highness. My father taught me. He was driver also, like your father is King. | 1:29:00 | 1:29:07 | |
-Don't you want a bigger engine now? -Oh, no. | 1:29:07 | 1:29:11 | |
I am in the habit of Victoria now. Bigger engines bring troublesomeness. | 1:29:11 | 1:29:15 | |
People with small engines want bigger engines. | 1:29:15 | 1:29:20 | |
But one morning there are no more bigger engines. | 1:29:20 | 1:29:24 | |
So why not be satisfactory with small engines? | 1:29:24 | 1:29:27 | |
Gupta, your English is hopeless! | 1:29:27 | 1:29:31 | |
Yes, but I learn from Scott sahib. His English is very hopeful. | 1:29:31 | 1:29:37 | |
Come along, Kishan. | 1:29:38 | 1:29:39 | |
-We're stopping! -Oh, yes. It's the Kupra bridge. | 1:29:53 | 1:29:57 | |
It's almost five years since I was here, on my way home from leave. | 1:29:57 | 1:30:00 | |
Quite a contrast. | 1:30:00 | 1:30:02 | |
Gupta! | 1:30:39 | 1:30:40 | |
This time it's the bridge. They've blown up a section of it. | 1:30:43 | 1:30:49 | |
-You'll have to walk for a bit. -Walk?! What are we going to walk ON? | 1:30:49 | 1:30:53 | |
The force of the explosion went down instead of up. | 1:30:53 | 1:30:58 | |
There are a couple of rails left... but with no supports. | 1:30:58 | 1:31:03 | |
-We have to walk along a rail with nothing to hold on to?! -Only a few yards. It won't be easy, | 1:31:03 | 1:31:09 | |
-but I think you can do it. -Mightn't this be another ambush? -I don't think so, ma'am. | 1:31:09 | 1:31:15 | |
I don't think this was meant for us. I think this happened two or three days ago. | 1:31:15 | 1:31:18 | |
-MRS WYATT: -You say we can walk across. What happens then? | 1:31:18 | 1:31:20 | |
-BRIDIE: -If the supports have gone, will it take the weight of a train? | 1:31:20 | 1:31:25 | |
I think it was meant to stop the heavier ammunition trains, refugee trains, things like that. | 1:31:25 | 1:31:29 | |
I think there's enough left there to hold the weight of old Victoria. | 1:31:29 | 1:31:32 | |
It's a risk we'll have to take - there's no alternative. | 1:31:32 | 1:31:34 | |
-And if it IS an ambush? -The soldiers will go first with the Maxim. They can cover us. | 1:31:34 | 1:31:42 | |
Come down on the bridge as soon as you're ready. | 1:31:42 | 1:31:44 | |

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

Good! | 1:33:11 | 1:33:14 | |

Mr Bridie? Now, sir, on the rail. | 1:33:28 | 1:33:30 | |
-Don't look down. -Oh...dear... | 1:33:33 | 1:33:35 | |
-I can't move! -It's all right. | 1:33:38 | 1:33:40 | |
Ha, hah! Good for you! | 1:33:43 | 1:33:45 | |
Go on. Captain Scott won't let you fall. | 1:33:49 | 1:33:53 | |
-I'll show you. If -I -can do it, you can. | 1:33:54 | 1:33:57 | |
Don't look down. | 1:34:05 | 1:34:07 | |
Good girl! I'll cross and you pass the boy over, Van Leyden. | 1:34:18 | 1:34:22 | |
Thanks. | 1:34:30 | 1:34:32 | |
Right, let's have him. | 1:34:32 | 1:34:34 | |
Now then. Look at me, young fella. | 1:34:39 | 1:34:41 | |
Keep looking at me. | 1:34:43 | 1:34:45 | |
Now hold him out. | 1:34:48 | 1:34:51 | |
Reach out. | 1:34:51 | 1:34:53 | |
Hold him out, Van Leyden. Well, reach out with him, man! | 1:34:53 | 1:34:57 | |
Look at me, young fella. | 1:35:00 | 1:35:02 | |
That's a good boy. | 1:35:02 | 1:35:03 | |
Don't look down... Come on, man, stretch out. | 1:35:03 | 1:35:08 | |
Peters, get my waist! | 1:35:08 | 1:35:10 | |
Hold him out! | 1:35:12 | 1:35:13 | |
Well, what's the matter with you? Stretch him out! | 1:35:15 | 1:35:18 | |
Go on. That's it. Grab the boy! | 1:35:18 | 1:35:22 | |
Come on! | 1:35:30 | 1:35:31 | |
-What the devil are you doing? -Please. -Please nothing! You deliberately held that boy short! | 1:35:43 | 1:35:47 | |
What?! You nearly dropped him! | 1:35:47 | 1:35:50 | |
And you have the audacity to blame ME? | 1:35:50 | 1:35:53 | |
-That's how you wanted it to look! -Don't be childish! | 1:35:53 | 1:35:58 | |

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

You seem determined to get into the headlines but you'll regret this! | 1:37:01 | 1:37:06 | |
-For God's sake... -I can't believe... -Please get off the bridge, all of you! | 1:37:12 | 1:37:17 | |
-There may be a dozen rifles aimed at you! -Anyone could have slipped! | 1:37:17 | 1:37:22 | |
-You've no proof he's a murderer! -Did you have to arrest him? We could have watched him. | 1:37:22 | 1:37:29 | |
For heaven's sake! Look, I could be wrong... | 1:37:29 | 1:37:33 | |
but we can't take a chance with this boy's life! Please, leave the bridge. | 1:37:33 | 1:37:38 | |
Please, take him off the bridge. | 1:37:43 | 1:37:45 | |
-Will it take the weight? Are you sure? -Of course! I've often driven trains over blown-up bridges! | 1:37:45 | 1:37:50 | |
-Stop behaving like a schoolboy! -Do you want me to tell you I haven't a hope in hell? | 1:37:50 | 1:37:57 | |
I've got to do this job! It's MY responsibility! | 1:37:57 | 1:38:00 | |

It is right. Right! | 1:40:25 | 1:40:27 | |
Don't worry, Gupta. She'll make it! | 1:40:29 | 1:40:31 | |

-How long? -Not more long than five minutes. -Right. | 1:41:53 | 1:41:56 | |
Hello. Isn't this carrying your dislike of soldiers too far? | 1:42:08 | 1:42:13 | |

Oh, yes! Then my best friend hands me a loaded revolver | 1:42:50 | 1:42:56 | |

-Do you think they've tied him up? -Stop worrying. I'm sure Captain Scott knows what he's doing. | 1:44:15 | 1:44:21 | |
-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! | 1:44:21 | 1:44:28 | |
-I doubt if he has anything to read. -What has reading got to do with it? | 1:44:28 | 1:44:33 | |
Captain Scott thinks he tried to kill Kishan. He had to lock him up! | 1:44:33 | 1:44:37 | |
Let me explain the British mentality. | 1:44:37 | 1:44:41 | |
While Van Leyden was a journalist, Mr Bridie disliked him intensely. | 1:44:41 | 1:44:46 | |
When he said he was a half-breed, Mr Bridie felt a certain sympathy for him. | 1:44:46 | 1:44:52 | |
Now that he's suspected of being a murderer, Mr Bridie will start crusading for him! | 1:44:52 | 1:44:59 | |

It's better than kicking them! | 1:45:02 | 1:45:05 | |

-No, don't. -You won't get away with this! | 1:46:51 | 1:46:55 | |
I can and I will. There won't be any witnesses. | 1:46:55 | 1:46:59 | |
Even if you succeed, there is another soldier who controls the engine. | 1:46:59 | 1:47:03 | |
He will obey this. Call that boy! | 1:47:03 | 1:47:06 | |

I am Indian. My mother was Dutch. I'm a despised half-breed! | 1:47:48 | 1:47:53 | |
What does killing us prove? That you're not a half-breed? | 1:47:53 | 1:47:56 | |
That I am a true Muslim. That I care enough to fight for my faith, | 1:47:57 | 1:48:03 | |
for a country that will be all Muslim, a FREE country! Can you understand that? | 1:48:03 | 1:48:10 | |

When you came back, you were as sick as any of us. | 1:50:49 | 1:50:52 | |
It was a useless slaughter. | 1:50:53 | 1:50:56 | |
Isn't killing always useless? Has it EVER solved any problems? | 1:50:56 | 1:51:01 | |
It HAS! And it will again! | 1:51:01 | 1:51:04 | |
I like children as much as you do, but...that one boy... | 1:51:05 | 1:51:10 | |
that one boy, he is a...a symbol... | 1:51:10 | 1:51:14 | |
an outworn tradition that stands between my country and freedom! | 1:51:14 | 1:51:18 | |
And I shall kill him. I MUST kill him to save the lives of thousands! | 1:51:18 | 1:51:24 | |

Ticklish? | 1:51:43 | 1:51:46 | |
Can you box? | 1:51:46 | 1:51:48 | |
GIVES ORDER TO HAVILDAR | 1:51:51 | 1:51:54 | |
INFORMS HIM ABOUT PRESSURE | 1:51:55 | 1:51:58 | |
Look at it! Look! | 1:52:16 | 1:52:17 | |
Not a sound from any of you. | 1:52:22 | 1:52:24 | |
Hey! Hey, hey, hey... | 1:52:25 | 1:52:28 | |
How can you drink tea with dirty hands? | 1:52:28 | 1:52:31 | |
-HE WHISTLES -Wait a minute. | 1:52:37 | 1:52:41 | |
Nobody move. | 1:52:41 | 1:52:42 | |
Don't scream... I will not kill you if you don't scream. | 1:53:06 | 1:53:12 | |
Don't come in! | 1:53:13 | 1:53:14 | |
Down! Everybody! | 1:53:14 | 1:53:17 | |
Gupta! | 1:53:20 | 1:53:22 | |
Tell Havildar not to stop, it's a trap! | 1:53:22 | 1:53:25 | |
It's no good, Van Leyden! You can't depress that gun any more! | 1:53:27 | 1:53:30 | |
-Help Kumar! -Oh, dear, I think I've been hit. -Yes, yes, you have. | 1:53:54 | 1:53:58 | |
We'll soon clean this up. | 1:54:09 | 1:54:12 | |
Good heavens! They're not on the roof?! | 1:54:12 | 1:54:14 | |
Am I losing much blood? | 1:55:13 | 1:55:15 | |
No, it's only a scratch. You'd have hurt yourself more falling off a bicycle. | 1:55:15 | 1:55:19 | |
You're wrong, Mr Peters. Mr Bridie needs to take great care. | 1:55:19 | 1:55:23 | |
-First, a stiff drink, then, a sling. -Thank you, Lady Windham, you are kind. | 1:55:23 | 1:55:27 | |
Where's Mr Van Leyden? | 1:55:32 | 1:55:34 | |
He...er...he got off. | 1:55:34 | 1:55:37 | |
He got off?! | 1:55:37 | 1:55:39 | |
Oh, dear. I couldn't help liking Mr Van Leyden, | 1:55:42 | 1:55:46 | |
even though he tried to drill us all full of holes. | 1:55:46 | 1:55:50 | |
-Drink that. -Thank you, thank you. | 1:55:50 | 1:55:52 | |
Thank you, Lady Windham. Now all our troubles are over. | 1:55:52 | 1:55:56 | |
There. That's it. | 1:56:21 | 1:56:23 | |
-You'd better put this on. You mustn't get any more sun on your head. -Thank you. | 1:56:23 | 1:56:28 | |
Bridie! | 1:57:10 | 1:57:12 | |
Feed the belt through! | 1:57:20 | 1:57:22 | |
What luck! This is the Bindar Tunnel. They'll never catch us now - | 1:58:51 | 1:58:55 | |
it's two miles long and twists all the way. Come along, Captain Scott. | 1:58:55 | 1:58:59 | |
Captain Scott! | 1:59:01 | 1:59:03 | |
Well...that's a funny thing. | 1:59:03 | 1:59:07 | |
-Is he all right? -He will be. | 1:59:11 | 1:59:15 | |
Get me some water, Mr Bridie. | 1:59:15 | 1:59:17 | |
I don't think he can have been hit. | 1:59:21 | 1:59:24 | |
No, it looks like just this wound. | 1:59:24 | 1:59:27 | |
That's about the luckiest thing that ever happened. | 1:59:27 | 1:59:31 | |
-Ow! -Keep still, keep still. | 1:59:31 | 1:59:35 | |
Ohh...I tell you, this is a mug's game. | 1:59:35 | 1:59:39 | |
Perhaps you're right. Will I put those tin soldiers back in their box? | 1:59:39 | 1:59:44 | |
You'd probably want them out again tomorrow. | 1:59:44 | 1:59:48 | |
-You've changed your opinion about soldiering? -Let's just say... | 1:59:48 | 1:59:53 | |
I've learned a couple of things. | 1:59:53 | 1:59:56 | |
Let's just say we've both learned a couple of things. | 1:59:56 | 2:00:01 | |
There you are, you see. | 2:00:07 | 2:00:09 | |
The uniform! They all fall for it. | 2:00:09 | 2:00:12 | |
Oh! Ohhh! | 2:00:14 | 2:00:16 | |

TOOT-TOOT-TOOT! | 2:00:42 | 2:00:45 | |
Hey, there! | 2:00:51 | 2:00:53 | |
You! | 2:00:53 | 2:00:55 | |
Is this the 9.10 from Guram? | 2:00:55 | 2:00:57 | |
No, it's the last bloody train from Haserabad. | 2:00:57 | 2:01:01 | |
Stand to attention when you speak to a senior officer! | 2:01:01 | 2:01:04 | |
John's all right? | 2:01:14 | 2:01:15 | |
Yes. Sir John's quite all right. The rebels never broke in. | 2:01:15 | 2:01:19 | |
-Reinforcements came? -Yes, but the attack stopped when you got away. | 2:01:19 | 2:01:23 | |
-We'll meet again, Captain. The Viceroy will want to meet you. -Thank you, ma'am. | 2:01:23 | 2:01:29 | |
Don't forget Mr Bridie. He helped save the lot of us! | 2:01:29 | 2:01:33 | |
Well, Gupta... | 2:01:33 | 2:01:35 | |
See, sahib, they say Victoria too old, no good but for shunting. Let them speak now. | 2:01:35 | 2:01:42 | |
-She showed them! -She did. | 2:01:42 | 2:01:44 | |

Peters, we were worried you wouldn't get to the conference. | 2:01:48 | 2:01:52 | |
The Government are interested in this new field gun you're making. | 2:01:52 | 2:01:55 | |
Captain Scott, thank you for saving my life. | 2:02:03 | 2:02:06 | |
You are my friend now. | 2:02:06 | 2:02:07 | |
-I hope so. -But you are British. | 2:02:07 | 2:02:10 | |
-Will I have to fight you? -Good heavens, no! Why should you? | 2:02:10 | 2:02:15 | |
-My father said... -What? | 2:02:15 | 2:02:17 | |
..I must fight the British to make them go away. | 2:02:17 | 2:02:20 | |
I wish I could have driven the engine. | 2:02:26 | 2:02:29 | |
You'll have to fight little Kishan now. That's all the thanks you get. | 2:02:38 | 2:02:42 | |
That's all we ever get. | 2:02:42 | 2:02:44 | |
"Be thankful you're living and trust your luck. March to your front like a soldier." | 2:02:44 | 2:02:49 | |
-Who said that? -A man called Kipling - another tea drinker. | 2:02:49 | 2:02:54 | |
