00:00I'm looking for a girl who can see.
00:04She's tall, blonde.
00:07She was leading a group of people.
00:11Is she here?
00:13Perhaps.
00:15I've got to find her.
00:16It's too late.
00:30I've got to find her.
01:00I've got to find her.
01:30I came to see if there's anyone still here.
01:34You're looking for more gang leaders?
01:39As far as I can see, there are no more gangs left to lead.
01:44I came to make my peace.
01:47Who has to join up?
01:48Are yours all dead?
01:54They will be back tomorrow.
01:59Same in line.
02:00They got it right.
02:05We've got to start again.
02:07The only question is, how?
02:10I'm leaving first thing in the morning.
02:16I'm leaving first thing in the morning.
02:16I'm leaving first thing in the morning.
02:20What do you
02:27want to do?
02:27How's it going?
02:28How's it going?
02:28How's it going?
03:00O God, I hope in ages past, a hope for years to come.
03:18Be thou our guide, the child who's lost, and our eternal home.
03:32My friends, let us renew our thanks to God for preserving us in the midst of such disaster.
03:43I will ask you to pray that he will look with compassion on all those who still wander alone in the darkness,
03:54and that it will please him to guide their feet hither in order that we may succour them.
04:04I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but as you can imagine, there's so much to do.
04:08Miss Durrant, I'm particularly looking for the young girl that I was with at the university.
04:13You may remember us together. She was tall, blonde, about 23. Her name was Payton.
04:19Miss Payton? No, I can't help you, I'm afraid.
04:23Well, she's certainly not here now.
04:25Of course, she may have gone with the others. I can't be sure of that.
04:29The others?
04:30Mr. Beadley and Major Anderson, and most of the others you saw at the university.
04:35They're not here, then?
04:36They did come here. In fact, it was Mr. Beadley who knew of this house.
04:40But there were a few of us who fundamentally disagreed with their ideas as to the future of society.
04:45You may remember they gave us an outline of those ideas that night at the university.
04:50Yes, I remember.
04:51They seem to believe that the human race cannot survive without the complete abolition of morality as we've understood it before.
04:57That everything should be subservient to the production of children.
05:01And that whether or not a child is a child of true love is of no importance at all.
05:06When they arrived here, they repeated that acceptance of their philosophy was a precondition of membership of their community.
05:13We agreed to separate, and they volunteered to find somewhere else.
05:17Those of us that remain here are Christian.
05:19We believe that we must turn to our Lord and say,
05:23We put our trust in you.
05:25Your laws are our laws.
05:26Guide us in your way, and we know that our souls will survive.
05:32What are you going to do?
05:34You moving on?
05:38I've got to find the other party.
05:41See if Jo's with him.
05:43I'd put more than I'd realize on her being here.
05:46Look.
05:47Give it a day.
05:49Let me see what the chances are of getting this place together.
05:53If it looks a possibility, I'll...
05:55I'll stay.
05:58If not, I'll come with you.
06:01Their intentions are good.
06:04So are mine in London.
06:07Good intentions aren't enough anymore.
06:11This place could be made a going concern, but only if it's properly organized.
06:15You've got good and well-protected land.
06:17You've got enough cattle left alive.
06:19You've got a good fresh water supply.
06:20You've even got an electricity generator, which, by the way, I've fixed.
06:24And it's about time somebody had.
06:27And what you must do at once is build up your stocks from outside.
06:30Get as much as you can whilst it's still there to take.
06:33It's not robbery.
06:35It's self-preservation.
06:36I've already planned for the blind to be taught to do useful work.
06:41Your vicar wanted them to learn basket weaving.
06:43Now, what use is that to anybody?
06:44And you mustn't.
06:46You mustn't let him persuade you to bring any more blind people here.
06:49You can just about cope with what you've got, if things are properly handled, that is, anymore, and you've had it.
06:54But if you don't all starve to death, then the ones who can see will have both mental and physical breakdowns trying to cope with the ones who can't.
07:00This is not speculation.
07:02This is predicted fact.
07:03But, on the other hand, if we do as I say, you did your best.
07:23Let's go.
07:33Let's go.
08:03Let's go.
08:20Want to take five?
08:22Cheers.

09:53No, don't move! Get back!
10:23There's no one else here.
10:51It's almost as if it was waiting for him.
10:56As if it knew he was going to come out of that door.
11:00Come on. You know all about these things.
11:06You've worked with them.
11:08Yes, all right. They make me sick. They're like maggots or vultures.
11:13I was ready for that.
11:15But there's more and more all the time.
11:17They seem to know where we are.
11:22They turned towards us when they saw the lorries.
11:25Some even moved towards us.
11:27They didn't see the lorries.
11:29They're plants. They can't see.
11:39The trouble with triffids is what we don't know.
11:44Some scientists bred a very special plant to produce a very special oil.
11:48Well, we've got the special oil and we're lumbered with a very special plant.
11:51How special is it? Has it got a brain?
11:53Don't be daft. It's a plant.
11:54That's no answer.
11:55That's all I know!
12:01Do they frighten you?
12:03Yes. And they sicken me, too.
12:05And what sickens me most of all, that inside this mess,
12:08they are the only things that are going to fatten and thrive.
12:14I'm going back to Tinsham.
12:19It's not a snap decision.
12:21It's been growing all day, driving through the desolation out there.
12:27Village after village, house after house,
12:29not a breath of human life anywhere.
12:33I felt more lonely in these last few days
12:35than I ever thought it possible to be.
12:38So, there's one reason my human need.
12:43But the main reason is this.
12:46And I've been working this out on the road.
12:48We must be part of a community to have any hope for the future at all.
12:54For the moment, look at all we need. Food, supplies, everything.
12:59But the food will go bad.
13:02The metal will rust.
13:03The petrol to drive the machines will run out.
13:05Before that happens, we have to learn to plough.
13:13And learn to make ploughs.
13:15And learn to smelt the iron to make the ploughshares.
13:19We must learn to make good all that we wear out.
13:21If not, we say goodbye to civilization and we slide right back into savagery.
13:28All the knowledge is there in books.
13:38If only we take the time to learn.
13:41Time, you see.
13:43Time.
13:44Time.
13:47We must be part of a community that's large enough for some people to be free from productive work.
13:52To have time.
13:54To study and experiment.
13:56And teach the kids.
13:57To prepare for the day when what we have is gone.
14:00What did you do before all this happened?
14:03I taught history.
14:05Very badly.
14:06But I'm talking sense now.
14:10Yeah, I know.
14:15I'll get my way at Tinsham.
14:17I have to use more subtlety.
14:21The Mardurrent needs us.
14:23I'm not going with you.
14:26Why not?
14:29I've got to find Jo.
14:33You don't even know if she's still alive.
14:36Quite right.
14:39But I'm going to find out.
14:42I'm going to find that other group.
14:43And if she's not with them well, I start again.
14:45I start in the south and I will...
14:48What?
14:49South.
14:51South Downs.
14:53A farmhouse overlooking Paulborough.
14:58Oh, we talked about it once as a place to go.
15:01Who cracked it then?
15:02If I can find it.
15:04And if she's there.
15:06When you find her, pack her up and bring her straight back to Tinsham.
15:12I shall need your help to make that woman see sense.
15:15I shall need your help to make that woman see sense.
15:17I shall need your help to make that woman see sense.
15:45What the hell do you think you're doing?
15:46Please.
15:47Please come and see what's happened to Tommy.
15:48Please.
15:49Please come and see what's happened to Tommy.

17:15To find a lady.
17:16Is she nice?
17:17Yeah, I think so.
17:19What's your name?
17:20Susan.
17:21I'm Bill.
17:22Thank you for letting me bring Rufus.
17:24He'll be very good.

18:22I'm Bill.
18:23I'm Bill.
18:24Bill.
18:25I'm Bill.
18:30It's around here somewhere, but I have to confess I don't know quite where.
18:33What are you going to do?
18:34We'll wait till it's dark.
18:36Then we'll try our lights.
18:54I don't know.
19:24Bill, Bill, there's a light.
19:45I think there's a light.
19:54I think there's a light.
20:24Shall we go?
20:39I've lost it. I've lost it.
20:44I've lost it.
20:50Over there!
20:59Dad!
21:00I have to go back.
21:04I have to go back.
21:06Dad!
21:07Dad!
21:08Dad!
21:10Dad!
21:12Dad!
21:18Dad!
21:40Hello, Bill.
21:54You've been a long time.
21:55Hey, can't you kiss her indoors?
22:14Perhaps I should have worked in Dennis and Mary.
22:18It didn't seem much point.
22:22You'll meet them in the morning.
22:25There were two other blind people staying here.
22:29But it seems they went out to get help and never came back.
22:34Triffids?
22:35Specs there.
22:37Are there any around here?
22:39Far too many.
22:41Is everything very blind?
22:45No.
22:47We know we're here.
22:49We know this Beatleys group.
22:50We know there are people at Tinsham.
22:52There must be similar groups all over the world.
22:55It's going to be ahead of the struggle, but I think we might come through.
23:02I think we all better go over to Tinsham as soon as we can.
23:07But Cook has said that the only way to survive is to be part of a sizable community.
23:12Well, I'm sure he's right.
23:17We'll have to wait until Mary's baby's born.
23:20It's due in a couple of weeks.
23:23Well, there's no worry.
23:26This place will do for a bit.
23:30I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:32Tell them to be expecting us.
23:33Tinsham in a few days.
23:34I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:35I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:37Thanks.
23:38Thanks.
23:39I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:41I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:42I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:43I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:44I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:45I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:46I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:47I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:48I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:49I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:50I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:51I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
23:52I'll drive over to Tinsham in a few days.
25:23It's a disease. You could smell it. There were bodies everywhere, including Miss Durrance.
25:29What about coker?
25:32I don't know. There were six new graves outside.
25:36We're on our own, then.
25:39We've got to try and make a go of it here.
25:44We will.
