00:30Oh honestly look at Joss's handkerchiefs they're full of holes.
00:34What can you expect when she uses them as rags for god knows what?
00:37Anyone at home?
00:41Oh I say.
00:43Old mother Riley at the washtub.
00:45Now that's quite enough of your lip considering I'm just trying to get Joss halfway decent to go home to say nothing of myself.
00:51Well come on what do you want?
00:52Don't be like that.
00:53I've just fixed up a car for tomorrow's picnic.
00:56You have to assemble three o'clock sharp in the foyer.
00:58Ah our very last tenko.
01:01It's really happening.
01:03Woohoo.
01:03Now then there is the question of.
01:06Oh come on get on with it I'm due back in the centre in five minutes.
01:08We have a large intake due in this evening.
01:10So?
01:11Oh no.
01:14Oh no you don't.
01:15I shall need Joss's bed.
01:16And Marion's old one will have to move back in.
01:18Now look Joss has only cracked her ribs.
01:20Well she'll still be lucky to make the boat.
01:22Absolute twaddle.
01:23Joss has broken more bones than I've had hot dinners.
01:25And she's always bounced back.
01:27Despite her age and conditions in camp.
01:29In fact the first time we clapped eyes on her she'd done her arm in.
01:31What I suggest is that Maggie and Dominica move in here with you.
01:34Van Mayer.
01:34And then you go.
01:35In here?
01:35Are you out of your mind?
01:37Besides we've only got five days left.
01:39B.
01:40Didn't you say something about wanting a nurse in here?
01:42What?
01:43Together with our oh so delicate expectant mother.
01:46Ah yes.
01:47Yes Maggie will need round the clock watching 24 hours.
01:50So Metro can move into my room with Christina.
01:53All nice and cosy so how's that?
01:56You better watch out for Stephen.
01:58He's in a far room.
01:59Well he's probably missing Joss.
02:01Not that he'd ever admit it.
02:02Stubborn old party.
02:03Where is he?
02:04In there.
02:05Knocking back the booze.
02:06Sister stopped him from sneaking in.
02:07Honestly then I could couple of kids.
02:08Oh worse.
02:10So where would you like me to start?
02:12Well how about taking home first aid?
02:14Most of the supplies are inside that door.
02:16So I suggest you lay out the trolley from these supplies.
02:18If I need telling after all these years.
02:22Be like old times.
02:25So it will.
02:27Can I too be of any assistance?
02:31Where have you popped up from?
02:33I have been to visit our small friend at the leper colony.
02:37Well this is a gathering of the clans.
02:39I thought you might have need of me.
02:41Well I couldn't keep away.
02:43How is the little chap?
02:44Settling in.
02:46Do you want me or do you not?
02:48As if you do.
02:49No.
02:51Kate.
02:52One sterling assistant coming up.
02:54In our room instead of you.
02:57Oh Kate.
02:58Oh could you.
02:59Yes well I think I'll just make myself scarce.
03:02But Metro doesn't even like me.
03:03Not really.
03:04And then she'll go on about her rich husband and all the servants you have to bully.
03:07Come on.
03:09May made it specially.
03:12Servants.
03:13At least I shall have them to bring me comforts in my loveless marriage.
03:17May and I shall be so alone.
03:19What about your women friends from before the war?
03:22Sadly I am and have always been a man's woman.
03:27You are my very first friend of the female sex.
03:30Now I shall have to desert you for a husband who regards me as just another possession.
03:34I'm not a valuable one at that.
03:36I don't know what to say.
03:38I have no one else to turn to.
03:41Well have you told the others?
03:42I have some pride.
03:44Why not?
03:45They'd be most sympathetic.
03:46To my face perhaps but behind it they'd be saying
03:48that's taken her two pegs down.
03:51Especially Maggie.
03:52Yes.
03:59I suppose
04:01you realize that my husband
04:03must have been a collaborator.
04:06Or why else
04:07was he transferred to work in an office?
04:10Does rather look like it.
04:12Knowing him I'm quite sure it's like it.
04:15When I think how pure
04:16I kept myself only to be
04:17soiled with his crimes.
04:20Not if you
04:23showed round that interview you gave.
04:27especially the bit about how you saved us all single-handed.
04:31That could even save his bacon.
04:33Bacon?
04:34What bacon?
04:35What?
04:37Oh no.
04:37No no no.
04:38His reputation
04:39and yours.
04:40Don't you see
04:41that article
04:42would cover up
04:43his bad record
04:44with one that was
04:45marvelously heroic.
04:46My God.
04:48I do believe you are on to something.
04:51I'm damn sure I am.
04:52I mean his family said
04:53great store by their good name.
04:56Well I think what they would not do
04:57to forget their precious name.
04:59Doesn't bear thinking.
05:01It does to me.
05:05Just think.
05:06I
05:07Dominica Alicia
05:08have the future
05:09of the house of their mayor
05:10in the palm of my tiny hand.
05:13Like a plaything
05:14to cherish
05:15or to throw to the wings.
05:21I'm sorry you've been kept waiting so long.
05:23The doctor would...
05:24Kate.
05:24Hold on a mo.
05:25I'll be back for you in a minute.
05:27I think Lady Jocelyn has a visitor.
05:29A Mr. Ling.
05:30Apparently his wife works at the centre.
05:32I wonder what she wants with him.
05:33Being somewhat of a law unto herself
05:35I hate to think.
05:36So how is she?
05:38Not the easiest of patients.
05:40Though I do wish
05:41she hadn't got this blasted cold
05:42and sneezing straight at me
05:44every time I go anywhere near.
05:45Oh it's only her way
05:46of showing she wants out.
05:47Wicked old beazel.
05:48My gratitude sister.
05:50Good evening Miss Norris.
05:52Lady Jocelyn
05:53will be pleased to see you.
05:56Evening.
05:59Mr. Ling?
06:01Yes.
06:01Right then.
06:04Oh.
06:05When you see her ladyship
06:06would you please tell her
06:07that if she loosens her bandages
06:09just once more
06:10I'll have her manacled
06:11and possibly gagged.
06:15What a terrible...
06:17And what might I ask
06:22are you doing in my room?
06:23We were put here.
06:24Then you can put yourself
06:25straight out somewhere else.
06:27I'm sorry
06:27but I think you'd be moved.
06:29This cannot be happening.
06:30Moved?
06:31Moved where?
06:33To the box room I think.
06:34Box room?
06:35How dare they!
06:37How dare they after all
06:38I have been through.
06:40Why am I putting that
06:41cupboard of a box room
06:41and why me?
06:42Keep your hair on.
06:44Philly's had to clear
06:45the sitting room
06:45for the new intake.
06:46And you will have
06:47Christina for company.
06:48Bore isn't it?
06:49It is an insult.
06:51There are not even mosquito nets.
06:52Why am I not in here
06:53next to the bathroom
06:54I who am the next dentist.
06:56It's Maggie.
06:57Bea and Kate
06:58have to keep an eye on her.
06:59Being, how shall we say,
07:01proper poorly.
07:02Pregnant.
07:03I know.
07:04And it's shocking.
07:05It certainly is.
07:07Oh my beautiful gowns.
07:08Don't worry.
07:09I move them in.
07:10If there is even
07:11one tiny crease
07:12I shall personally
07:13strangle you.
07:14Twice.
07:15Oh no, we shouldn't laugh.
07:21Extraordinary.
07:23So, Maggie,
07:25any news of what's
07:25happening to you?
07:28Phyllis and the powers
07:29that be in London
07:29have fixed up for me
07:30to go into
07:31an unmarried mother's home.
07:32There's got to be
07:32something better than that.
07:34Like what?
07:35Hold your nose
07:36and down the little red lane.
07:38I know.
07:38Bit strong, isn't it?
07:46Yeah, so is the medicine.
07:48Hmm.
07:50Honestly, this place.
07:53And don't forget you
07:54to go down to the food office
07:55first thing.
07:57And Joss said to be sure
07:58to ask for a Captain Nielsen.
08:00Oh, don't you start.
08:01She's already written it down
08:03twice, underlined.
08:04Perhaps she thinks
08:05you're not to be trusted.
08:07Feelings mutual.
08:08I suppose you know
08:09Mr. Ling was allowed
08:10to visit her.
08:11Yes, I saw him.
08:12In there for hours, he was.
08:14Oh, was he?
08:15Look, I'm sorry I can't stay
08:17to do the washing up,
08:17but I've just got to get back.
08:19So into bed with you
08:19and look after that chest.
08:22Oh, and by the by,
08:24Joss sends her regards.
08:29Cheers, Abel.
08:34Oh, it's you.
08:36Bags, a bundle.
08:37Dear.
08:38To what do we owe this honor?
08:40Doing a favor for the manager.
08:42Then B caught me.
08:43I'm dropping her off at Joss's
08:44and bringing her on to the picnic.
08:46Oh, that.
08:47Yes, that.
08:48And should you be drinking?
08:50Nope.
08:51Well, I hope you've eaten.
08:52Nope.
08:54What are we going to do with you?
08:57Unmarried mother's home,
08:58Miss Linton.
09:00Oh.
09:02Hmm.
09:03Hey, why did you bunk up with Dot?
09:06Please, don't you start.
09:08Oh, Violet, my baby, work it out.
09:11A new life another place
09:12and you know Madam.
09:14Sorry, she's got to get used to kids sometime.
09:16I don't want to be the one
09:17to do her that little favor.
09:19Do you know what you are?
09:20Perfect martyr material.
09:22Oh, but then you've got the background for it.
09:24Enjoy eating below the bell, dear?
09:26When it's called for, yes.
09:27Modern childhood, tatty jobs,
09:29prison camp and pregnant.
09:31Isn't it about time you broke the habit?
09:35Yours!
09:35Bloody minded with a so-and-so, aren't we?
09:42Well, so am I.
09:43Jimmy,
09:45who do we know in signals?
09:55Marion?
09:56In here.
09:58Did you forget something?
10:01Memo for Smithers.
10:02I think I must have left it on my desk.
10:04Oh, it's not like you to forget your papers.
10:07Why is your car not waiting?
10:09I wasn't sure how long I'd be.
10:14Or if you'd be here.
10:16Clifford Jefferson, you're playing hooky.
10:18No!
10:19No, I wouldn't call it that.
10:23I suddenly realized that in just a few days' time
10:25you'll be on your way.
10:28And I need to talk to you.
10:31Oh.
10:34So.
10:39What have you been up to?
10:42Oh, bills.
10:44Trying to sort out which have been paid and which haven't.
10:47They're in such a muddle and it's all my fault.
10:48Nonsense.
10:49I told you, you must take it slowly.
10:52Besides, don't give me something to do after you've gone.
10:53Well, the house will seem very empty without you.
10:57Well, it won't be for long, I hope.
11:03Oh, there's so much I want to say, but now...
11:06Now we're face to face.
11:08If it's any help, the first time I was able to say what I really felt was in the camp.
11:15In the camp, yes, I know.
11:16It's just that we'd been through so much together.
11:22We'd seen the worst as well as the best.
11:25Didn't matter what we said.
11:27Whereas you and I, we've always been sort of careful with one another.
11:32Perhaps.
11:33I suppose what I'm trying to say is sorry.
11:38I'm sorry for not understanding how much you've been through
11:41and for not accepting how much it's changed you.
11:46You couldn't be expected to.
11:48And if I'm really honest, it hurts that there's a part of your life
11:51that I shall never really know.
11:54Perhaps one day.
11:57Yes, perhaps.
12:00It's not just me that's changed.
12:02So it's a matter of us both learning to accept each other as we are now.
12:07Changes and all.
12:08Whether we understand them or not.
12:10We will, if we have the courage to say what we really mean.
12:13It won't be easy.
12:14Nothing important ever is.
12:17Oh, bloody English reserve.
12:21Still, I don't think at least it'll make life more interesting.
12:26Oh, won't it just?
12:28Do you think I'll be able to shout at you every time you say,
12:30Darling, all right if I use the bathroom first?
12:33I do not.
12:35Oh, yes, you do.
12:36What about you then?
12:37Talking to me when I'm shaving
12:38and, what's more, expecting an answer.
12:41The times I'd count myself.
12:42You never said.
12:45Oh, Clever.
12:46Oh, if only all our differences were so small.
12:49Oh, I love you.
12:54I know.
12:56Me too.
13:01This would surprise the servants.
13:03It's their day off.
13:04Oh.
13:07Oh.
13:07There.
13:24Now I've got every single address and forwarding address.
13:28And don't forget, if any of you move, you can let me know.
13:32You haven't yet told us where you will be living.
13:34A friend of my mother's is taking me in.
13:38In the Chinese quarter.
13:40That's right.
13:42Any objection?
13:44If that's what you want.
13:47Kate, will it please just stop shaking yourself like a dog?
13:50Oh, sorry.
13:52Gosh.
13:54Isn't it a lovely day?
13:56Quite perfect.
13:57To think.
14:00Here we all are, safe and sound.
14:03And then a few days after you, home to my very own room.
14:08Even a fire in winter.
14:10A real, live, honest-to-goodness fire.
14:13Now, don't forget, whatever you're doing, wherever you are,
14:17in the whole wide world, we're all meeting at Raffles on the 20th October 1950.
14:22Five years from the day you leave here, right?
14:25Promise.
14:26Given we've got the money to get here.
14:28Yeah, of course.
14:30Still, Metro will stump up, what with all her loot.
14:33Isn't that right, you old moneybags?
14:35Not so long as our estates have been ravaged by the...
14:38Sorry, no offence.
14:41But, of course.
14:44Dear Sister Ulricho, you must be wondering where you will be sent.
14:47I think I might know.
14:50Yes, in fact, I wish to announce that I have come to a decision.
14:55At last!
14:57We've given you up for last!
15:00Sorry, I got caught up.
15:04Oh, I say, what a bean feast!
15:08Bangers and bits.
15:11Oh, I could eat a horse.
15:14And most probably will.
15:17There's a bit of a clot, too.
15:19Oh, she's gone to see Joss to make sure she's behaving herself.
15:32Well, Miss Lee, I've got some good news for you.
15:34Doctor thinks we can take the stitches out tomorrow.
15:37Ah, just the person I need.
15:39Oh, what's up?
15:40You know who is having a snooze.
15:42So I'd be grateful if you'd go and wake her up.
15:44Drugs are due soon and she can be very obstreperous.
15:47Oh, don't I know it.
15:48How is she?
15:49Impossible.
15:49But what a character.
15:51Only don't say I said so.
16:00This is the life.
16:02Yeah, and to think I'm heading back to all those pea soupers.
16:12I must be barmy.
16:15At least I shall have lovely women.
16:18How do you mean, at least?
16:20She means she'll miss us.
16:22Isn't that right?
16:23I do believe I shall.
16:26Oh, I say, Metro, that's quite a confession.
16:30Still, this is the time for confessions, I suppose.
16:33Look, there's our Beatrice.
16:36Come on, you old slowcoach, or you'll miss the bangers.
16:39We've had most of them as it is.
16:41Dear God, our dear friend, Joss.
17:00No need to stay.
17:01No, but I shall.
17:06It's not fair, is it?
17:09Is it?
17:10No.
17:12Then what death is?
17:16First Monica.
17:18And now.
17:21Folded them so neatly.
17:24Edge to edge.
17:25Ready for use.
17:26If I hadn't given them my code.
17:32Told you.
17:33It was her heart.
17:36Over 70.
17:37Three and a half years of privations, knockings about.
17:40She was worn out.
17:43More than we knew.
17:44Even so, if I hadn't bullied her into helping me.
17:47If I'd stopped her doing so much.
17:51Some hope.
17:51God, how I hate this place.
17:58Every stick and stone.
18:02I should close it down.
18:04Now, forever.
18:06Somehow, I don't think.
18:09No.
18:12Let's not think.
18:15Not for a long, long time.
18:17I hope we didn't wake you.
18:38Look, we brought you some coffee and sandwiches.
18:40There's no need.
18:41You're the same.
18:42And when you've got those inside you, you're going back to Raffles and to bed.
18:44The funeral's this afternoon.
18:46And don't worry.
18:47Christina and I are going to stay here and open up.
18:49Stephen will stay with us.
18:51Clifford's waiting outside with a car.
18:52That's very kind of you.
18:54So how is he?
18:56Very bitter.
19:05Kate couldn't sleep in it last night, so she used Beatrice's.
19:08Don't blame her.
19:10No.
19:11Seems only the other day we were burying Tom.
19:13Well, at least we know the drill.
19:17Funeral's at three.
19:18We leave 2.30.
19:19Armbands are in my office.
19:22She found that stone in our second camp.
19:25It was her pride and joy.
19:27That and the table she made.
19:30Oh, Phyllis, it makes all one's other troubles seem so small.
19:35Shh!
19:36Come on.
19:36Let's get out of here.
19:38Yes.
19:39Yes, I'm sure you're right.
19:41Oh.
19:42Hello.
19:42Hello.
19:42Talk to you when you've had a rest.
19:45Fine.
19:48Sorry to be so much trouble.
19:59How very tidy it is.
20:01Oh, by the way, a Mr. Ling telephoned.
20:06He wondered if he might call after the funeral.
20:11Why not?
20:12More the merrier.
20:18Did I tell you I've decided to go back to England?
20:20Yes, you did say.
20:23To your sister, I believe.
20:25If she'll put up with me.
20:29And vice versa.
20:32Whereabouts does she live?
20:34Oh, Bijou bungalow, Bexhill-en-Sea.
20:38Perfect place to retire, according to Lillian.
20:40So very nice and quiet.
20:44Well, you know, you'd be very welcome to stay here.
20:48What, with marrying off in a few days, I wouldn't mind a bit of company.
20:51Place will be like a...
20:52If there is any hereafter, which I doubt,
20:59I bet she and Monica are dishing the dirt.
21:03And swapping rude stories.
21:06Ever heard her one about the piano and the tuna?
21:09More than once.
21:11Got filthier every time.
21:15Which reminds me, no solemn occasion after.
21:17She'd hate that.
21:19Just a good booze-up to send her on away, as we did for...
21:27Never mind.
21:29Do our best.
21:33Well, I think we ought to go.
21:39First occasion, my old girl.
21:42Be on time for anything.
21:59Cickle to that.
22:15C irmins.
22:15Do our best.
22:16Do our best.
22:17Wind.
22:21Do our best.
23:22What?
23:24Ah, yes, yes, if you wish to.
23:26Ladies and gentlemen, if I might, crave a moment.
23:29Lord, I'm going to make a speech.
23:31A moment only, please.
23:33Excuse me.
23:35Apart from having the honor of Lady Jocelyn's friendship, I am a solicitor.
23:48And in that capacity, I was invited to visit her in hospital in order to make a will.
23:59As she said to me, not getting any younger.
24:04I have the will here.
24:07But before I read it to you in full, I'd like to sum up the gist of the content.
24:16Aside from bequeaths to friends and family in England,
24:25she has left to her good friends Mrs. Marion Jefferson,
24:33Mrs. Eureka,
24:38Mrs. Kate Norris,
24:41Mrs. Christina Campbell,
24:44Mrs. Dominica Van Mayer,
24:48Mrs. Margaret Thorpe,
24:51and Mrs. Dorsey Bennett.
24:54The sum of 1,000 pounds each
24:57to be spent
25:00on enjoying themselves
25:03and not paying annum bills.
25:05Oh, my goodness.
25:09To Dr. Beatrice Mason
25:11and Mr. Stephen Wentworth,
25:16the sum of 500 pounds per annum each
25:19on the understanding
25:22that there will be
25:24joint trustees of the center
25:26to be renamed
25:28the Monica Redcliffe Foundation.
25:33However,
25:34they must undertake
25:36to oversee the building
25:39and running of the foundation
25:41personally.
25:43Otherwise,
25:46the 52,500 pounds
25:48intended for the foundation
25:50will be donated
25:52to the Forsyth Society,
25:54which I believe
25:56has something to do
25:58with suffrage jets.
26:01Typical.
26:02Just getting used to
26:03going back to my sister
26:04all nice and cozy
26:05and she shoves her spoke in
26:07as per usual.
26:08And from where we can't get at her.
26:09Little stirrer.
26:11At all that time,
26:12I thought she and Mr. Lee...
26:14You never.
26:15And why the hell not?
26:16No reason.
26:17And you needn't look like that.
26:18It does happen
26:18even to old decrepits like us.
26:21Oh, I beg your pardon, sister.
26:22Not the sort of subject
26:22to bring up in front of a nun.
26:24They are still part of the vile.
26:27So,
26:27you are returning home.
26:30Of course I'm not returning home.
26:32Waste all that money
26:33when there's so much needs to be done.
26:34Don't be absurd.
26:35Besides,
26:36if that's what she wants,
26:37that's what she'll get, Blaster.
26:39So we'll just have to rub along
26:40if that's possible.
26:41Look,
26:41I still haven't said
26:42that I will come back.
26:43My good woman,
26:45don't be ridiculous.
26:45Don't you good woman me?
26:47Apparently I'm not allowed
26:48to get on with it on my own.
26:49Seems I'm not to be trusted.
26:50You heard that, Will.
26:51So you'll just have to buckle under
26:53and have done.
26:54Buckle under?
26:54I have never buckled under in my life
26:59and I do not intend to start
27:00at this late stage,
27:01especially not with you to contend with.
27:03Now, you listen to me, Mason.
27:04In case it's escaped your notice,
27:05the center...
27:06The foundation.
27:07... is my idea.
27:08I thought of it.
27:08I found the building.
27:09Besides which,
27:10somebody has to be boss.
27:11Now, listen, you.
27:12If anybody is needed to run things,
27:13then it is most certainly a doctor.
27:15So you are coming back?
27:15Of course I'm coming back.
27:17If only to see you don't louse it up.
27:19Assuming that by then
27:20I can still bloody well see
27:21what you're up to.
27:28Bless you.
27:29I feel much fresher now.
27:32Apart from not having a bathroom,
27:34the soap at the convent
27:35is not very nice.
27:37Efficient, but little else.
27:39Our pleasure.
27:40Besides, it was very kind of you
27:41to bring us the news.
27:42We've both been worried about Stephen.
27:44As that is not the only reason
27:45for my visit.
27:47Oh?
27:47I have come to an important decision.
27:50Perhaps the most important
27:51of my whole life.
27:53Would you like me
27:54to leave you two together?
27:55Of course not.
27:56You are a friend.
27:58Thank you for that.
28:00Many things have made me to decide.
28:02Meeting again my dear friends.
28:04This poor, devastated country.
28:07But also,
28:08there is news of great change
28:09in our church in Holland.
28:12Before the German occupation,
28:14we had the reputation
28:15of being most, um,
28:16how would you say it?
28:19Old-fashioned?
28:20Hmm.
28:21But now,
28:22perhaps because of the war,
28:24there has been something
28:25of a revolution.
28:26So I have decided
28:27that I may serve God
28:28without returning
28:29to the enclosure of my order.
28:32You're leaving the church.
28:34Oh, no.
28:35I could never do that.
28:36But I shall not go back to Holland.
28:38Instead,
28:39I have made arrangements
28:40to work here
28:41in a leper colony
28:42close to God-stricken children
28:44in the country
28:45that I love so much.
28:46So please be glad for me.
28:49If that's what you want.
28:50Oh, I do.
28:52And just think,
28:52when you get back,
28:54we shall be able to see each other.
28:55You and Clifford
28:56and dear Christina,
28:59what a long thread
29:00God has made
29:01to bring us all together.
29:03A thousand pounds, eh?
29:06What a sterling little lady just was.
29:09Will there be a duller place
29:10without her?
29:11Yes.
29:11And you'll be sure
29:13to do exactly
29:14as she instructed.
29:15Spend it all
29:15on jolly little nonsenses,
29:17daunts up country,
29:18all that sort of thing.
29:19Oh, yes.
29:22Forgetting.
29:23We're moving on, eh?
29:25Possibly back to Holland.
29:29I must say,
29:30I take it as an enormous compliment
29:32if you'd admit me
29:33to pay my respects
29:34after all this nonsense is over.
29:37Please,
29:38I have to confess to you something.
29:40Oh,
29:41I'm getting a bit of a ball,
29:43am I?
29:43Ball?
29:44Oh, I'm not a fool, my dear.
29:46I do know I'm a bit of a duffer.
29:48No, never you.
29:50But there is something
29:51that I have specially kept from you,
29:53something important.
29:55Oh.
29:57It's my husband.
29:59He's been found.
30:01And I,
30:02on his estates,
30:03am waiting for me to join him.
30:06Oh.
30:08Yes, I,
30:09I see.
30:10And I shall be forced to join him
30:12if only because...
30:12Please, please.
30:14No names, my Pacto.
30:16Of course,
30:17you must join him.
30:18The sacred bond
30:20and all that.
30:21It is nothing like that.
30:24Indeed,
30:24since I have known you,
30:25I have been so happy.
30:26Please, my dear,
30:27say no more.
30:28I might regret it.
30:28What?
30:30Besides,
30:30you are doing the right thing.
30:33That's what counts.
30:34Oh, yeah.
30:34I'll tell you one thing, though.
30:39Not only do I
30:40respect and admire you
30:42quite enormously,
30:42but
30:43always have a very special place
30:47in my heart,
30:47don't you know?
30:48Now,
30:50excuse me.
30:54Lots to do.
30:59Have you heard,
31:00Finn,
31:00your trial will be?
31:02No,
31:03but they will hang me.
31:05You do not know that.
31:06I did
31:07what I did.
31:09Yes,
31:09but sometimes
31:10you tried to be...
31:11You tried
31:13to be human.
31:18We are all
31:19human,
31:21even
31:21the most wicked.
31:23That is because
31:24we are all
31:25God's children.
31:25You are
31:30very certain
31:31of God's purpose,
31:33yes,
31:34but do not think
31:35I've been without doubts.
31:37You too?
31:38Oh, yes,
31:40for which you,
31:41Commandant Yamawuchi,
31:42are partly responsible.
31:45In camp,
31:46it was as if
31:47I was forced
31:47to live my life backwards,
31:49discarding
31:50all those rules
31:51I had been taught
31:51to accept questioning.
31:54But in the end,
31:55God gave me
31:56the courage
31:57to find
31:57my faith renewed.
32:07If I had
32:08true courage,
32:10I would have done
32:11the honorable death
32:12as Captain Sato.
32:13No.
32:14Yes.
32:14Perhaps God,
32:15whether yours or mine,
32:16did not wish it so.
32:18To punish me.
32:20That,
32:20I think,
32:21you are doing
32:21for yourself.
32:23But this time
32:24will not be wasted.
32:26If we can allow ourselves,
32:28we can all grow
32:30in grace,
32:31so that when at last
32:32we come to meet our maker,
32:34we can come to him
32:34with the gift
32:35of a purer soul.
32:37You are
32:38a good woman.
32:40I am a muddled
32:42and opinionated nun.
32:44But we must all
32:45try our best.
32:47Always.
32:48To the very end.
32:49She's still with us,
33:07isn't she?
33:07Oh, yes.
33:08And always will be.
33:10Nothing works out
33:10as planned.
33:12You can say that again.
33:13Hey, you lot,
33:15turn the lights off.
33:16Go on.
33:16Kate, what is it?
33:17What else?
33:18She helped me do.
33:21Tra-ra-ra!
33:23Kate,
33:24how did you feel?
33:25You've got it
33:25especially for me.
33:27Here.
33:29Isn't it grand?
33:30Of course it's grand.
33:31Come on, Kate,
33:32cut it before we tear it apart
33:33like we used to.
33:34Hooray!
33:36Right.
33:37Eight, I think.
33:38Seven.
33:40Oh, yeah.
33:41I should have remained
33:42it, shouldn't I?
33:43I don't see why.
33:44People died in the camp
33:45and we had to carry on.
33:45Why not now?
33:46Why not indeed?
33:47Or have we gone soft
33:48all of a sudden?
33:51Why am I always
33:52lumbered with difficult women?
33:57That rat!
33:58The joss!
33:58What is it?
33:59Miss Hatton's office!
34:00Yes!
34:00She came running out
34:01screaming at her dog!
34:02You're debuffed!
34:04Oh, well, for you lot,
34:05I never had any fun.
34:06I was always stuck
34:07in that sick bed.
34:08Oh, poor old lady!
34:10Oh, you didn't have
34:11Dr. Trier round on that.
34:13She was a good doctor.
34:15Oh, my God.
34:15You don't want to start
34:16that all over again, are you?
34:17I shall if I wish.
34:18I wonder where she is now.
34:19France, I expect.
34:21Oh, God.
34:21Probably shot by the Gestapo.
34:23The Gestapo, what?
34:24Her brother was in the resistance.
34:25Oh, not so funny.
34:26No.
34:28Shall we drink
34:29to those who are no longer with us?
34:31Oh, I would like to.
34:32Yes.
34:33Nellie
34:33and Sally.
34:36Sylvia.
34:38Judith Bowen
34:38and Debbie.
34:40Rose
34:41and little Susie.
34:43Blanche.
34:44Dr. Trier.
34:46And Joss.
34:48And Xenia.
34:51And may the good Lord
34:52bless them
34:53and keep them.
34:54All to life and加
35:02things.
35:04Amen.
35:08Amen.
35:14Amen.
35:17Amen.
35:17Amen.
35:18Amen.
35:18Amen.
35:20Amen.
35:20Amen.
35:21Oh, no, no, please, no.
35:51Come on, come on, old chap.
35:55Wakey, wakey.
35:57You're having a nightmare.
35:58Can I say anything?
36:00Changy?
36:01Not a thing.
36:02Oh, honey, one does tend to.
36:04Zed.
36:06Might I ask what you're doing in my bedroom?
36:09Have you no shame, woman?
36:10Not so as you'd notice.
36:12What, do you mind?
36:13Oh, don't be so silly, I'm a doctor.
36:15Well, as if I'm ever allowed to forget.
36:16Well, I want no comment.
36:21Beggars can't be choosers.
36:23In any case, I happen to like silk next to my skin.
36:27So it would seem.
36:29Widow Twanky.
36:30No, listen, I'm late for the boaters.
36:32It is, uh, just, uh, peg back your ears and pay attention.
36:35Those files are now in apple pie order
36:37and they are to remain like that.
36:39Oh, and if, uh, if Mrs. Lean gets called away,
36:42on no account is Mrs. Benety to be left in charge of my children.
36:45Is that clear?
36:45The woman is a perfect menace.
36:47Oh, look who's talking.
36:49If I'm to wave you off, you'll go out of here so I can dress.
36:52That's right.
36:52I have no need of being waved off, I do assure you.
36:54No, but I need to assure myself you've really gone.
36:57And if that's more lubrication for my chest,
36:59you know what you can do with it.
36:59Open it.
37:00Go on, it won't eat you.
37:02Oh, go on.
37:08You little sunbeam.
37:10And if I get a full report, as promised, once a week, every week,
37:14then Jake has been instructed to supply you with one of those per letter.
37:17Only just to make sure you don't cheat, you've got to give him the letter to post.
37:20If you think I can be bribed...
37:22Oh, I've got your measure, Wintworth.
37:25Mason.
37:26I wouldn't bank on it.
37:29Not if I were you.
37:30Oh.
37:32Here, you've forgotten your toothbrush.
37:35And back up, will you miss the boat as well?
37:38Story of my life.
37:40Oh, for goodness sake.
37:41Stop feeling so sorry for yourself.
37:43If you don't watch out, you're going to turn into a right old battleaxe of a doctor.
37:47With patients like you.
37:49Maggie!
37:49Oh, there you are.
37:50Quick, quick, down to my office.
37:52Get down.
37:53Move on, you'll miss it.
37:54It means what?
37:55It's all right.
37:55I'm not meant to be going.
37:56It's the boat.
37:57It's the boat.
37:57It's the boat.
37:57It's the boat.
37:58It's all right.
37:58I'm thinking it.
37:59The boat.
37:59It's the boat.
38:04Marion, if you don't buck up, you'll lose your transport.
38:08You can't wait all day, you know.
38:10Darling, don't shout.
38:13You're not addressing the brigade now.
38:15I'm quite ready.
38:17Sorry.
38:18The thing is that staff cars are at a bit of a premium just now and it's due back at government
38:22house within the hour.
38:23It will be.
38:25Calm down.
38:26I know exactly how long it takes to drive to the docks.
38:29I did it four years ago, remember?
38:31Yes.
38:34Worst moment of my life.
38:37Well, forgive me not coming to see you off.
38:39It's just...
38:40I know.
38:40I know.
38:42Duty calls.
38:44I'm glad you can't.
38:48Well, come on.
38:49I don't want you to miss the...
38:50I'd love you to miss the boat.
39:04I'm coming back.
39:07Yes.
39:09To stay.
39:11I hope.
39:11Remember me.
39:25Give my love to Ben.
39:28I still can't believe it.
39:47He's telling my daughter next door instead of on the phone from London.
39:51Told you not to take you in, didn't I?
39:53It's hidden time.
39:55Only because she needs help me out.
39:58She's got some job in an antique shop, her summard.
40:09So, how did you fix it?
40:13Never you know it.
40:18Anyway, as I was saying, if you need any help at the centre, I'll be hearing you.
40:23I know I will, if only to give me a hand with Stephen, dreadful man.
40:26Mind you, he'll be turning over a new leaf when I come back.
40:31You've been the mob boy now, if you didn't have to get...
40:33Bloody witch, man.
40:34True right.
40:35Never have been captured in the first place if they hadn't been sitting on their backside,
40:39signing themselves.
40:41They fought the bloody war for the likes of these.
40:46Is that what they think?
40:49Does it really matter?
40:50Come on.

41:06If it...

41:15God knows what they'll come to send me to get me some leaves.
41:17I can't see them.
41:18I can't see them anywhere.
41:19You haven't heard a word that I've been saying.
41:21What?
41:22I was saying that perhaps you were right,
41:24and then later you could come for a visit.
