00:04I do this for a good friend and I hope you will agree that there is no more holy thing
00:12in this
00:13world than a friend in need. In my case it is the estimable Lady Jane Franklin who wishes to
00:21address you under rather urgent circumstances. Thank you Mr. Dickens. Many of you will have become
00:35aware no doubt of the mystery beginning to surround my husband's expedition to the Arctic.
00:43The Admiralty are doing what they can but the urgency to find my husband and his men
00:49and the enormity of that icy province in which they are lost leads me here to you. Now I know
01:00that
01:00many of you are very generous patrons of charities and of the arts. I wonder if you might be induced
01:08to subscribe next not to another cultural society but to a smart little ship, a catch outfitted to
01:17venture to that very same land into which my husband and more than a hundred other good men
01:23have bravely sailed and vanished. I feel it is certain that Sir John and his lost heroes will
01:34be found and soon by our intrepid rescue mission. Now which of you good people would like to see
01:45your name published among its patrons.
02:03I was going to start pulling the eyes of faith. Why don't I give you a hand?
02:10I was trying to recognise the norm. Is this... Is this... Is this... Is this... Is this friend
02:14or... Or...
02:17Hey...
02:19That won't change what we do for him.
02:27It's Mr. Honey, the carpenter.
02:32He'll recognise his neckerchief.
02:37You alright lad?
02:39What's that?
02:40Process. We can't possibly bury them all. We have 32 dead as well as 23 unaccounted for,
02:46Lieutenant Hodgson included. We're glassing every horizon. It may be that one or two who
02:52run out into the fog will still find their way back to us like your ship's boy did.
02:59We've... No sign of Dr. Goods, sir.
03:01He'd never have gone off with those men of his own volition.
03:11Could you imagine that this man may return to us, Mr. Brilliance?
03:15If Private Heather remained a mystery to the doctors, I have no hope of solving this.
03:20What explains this, er... This similar state? When their injuries could not be more different?
03:27All I can bring to mind is the example of a diary. With all the entries removed. It's still a
03:34book, yes.
03:38But... Blank pages now.
03:57We set sail from Green High three years ago with 133 men aboard.
04:03I could have imagined such grief would come to us.
04:08There's no choice now but to carry it with us as we go.
04:13To bring home the names of our dead.
04:17So that their loved ones can find solace knowing that...
04:23Friendship...
04:23And courage...
04:25Were with them till the very end.
04:30So take up the word with me, men.
04:36South!
04:37South!
04:39We march south!
04:41Prepare for departure, men.
04:43Burn our dead, Thomas.
04:45Let them be warm as they go.
04:48And the supplies we cannot carry.
04:52Hickey's band are waiting us out to loot the camp.
04:57Some of the men with him made their choice out of fear...
04:59...will not take away any chance they have to survive.
05:04We may meet them yet again.
05:06And if we do, I want them to make a different choice.
05:12Leave our supplies in a tidy pile...
05:16...as an offering.
05:19I want the men with Hickey to know that's how we meant it.
05:30More than God loves them.
05:42And pull!
05:47Hey, guys!
05:49Go!
05:49Go!
05:49Go!
05:49Go!
05:51Go!
05:52Go!
05:53Go, go!
05:54Go, go!
08:06There's no game here.
08:08But we have food.
08:17You have things in hand.
08:22There's still a place for you here.
08:25If you want it.
08:26There's no one.
08:39There's no one.
08:39There's no one.
08:53You have to go.
08:55Oh, my God.
09:37That's the heat.
09:39I don't understand.
09:53Whoa, whoa, whoa!
10:04Are you comfortable, James?
10:08I'm sorry.
10:10What in heaven for?
10:11How on earth you were walking at all will puzzle me the rest of my days.
10:15You've got holes in you, James.
10:17That shot was fired six years ago.
10:22It's gonna murder me yet.
10:24Well, if it doesn't, it's gonna make that Chinese sniper story you're so fond of recounting a half hour long
10:29to tell.
10:32Mr. Bridgins has dressed your wounds.
10:36He thinks he can make up a blaster tonight that'll keep them shut till we can get them healing again,
10:43hmm?
10:45There is time, there is time, there is time.
10:55I know your thoughts, Lieutenant.
11:01I was thinking about a wedding identity.
11:06And she served an American ham from Virginia.
11:10I know it tasted better.
11:13And I was half right.
11:17And what did you imagine me thinking?
11:23We've eaten from these tins of mystery for years now, haven't we?
11:28Without ever really knowing what was in them.
11:32Veal, cutlets, tomato.
11:34Quarter.
11:35Yeah.
11:37How could that be?
11:39Really?
11:42Pieces of horse?
11:45A street dog?
11:50Does it matter now?
11:53No.
11:56All that matters is we were willing to eat it and it served our needs.
12:03Is that about right?
12:14But our needs have changed, Lieutenant.
12:18We need to ask ourselves, what are we willing to eat next?
12:41I only haunt part of the day.
12:43My knees feel like they've got glass in them.
12:47It'll get worse, this.
12:50Ah.
12:53What should I prepare?
12:56To die, Mr. Gibson.
12:59As all your joints will soon feel as if they're full of glass.
13:05Elbows.
13:06Neck.
13:08Your knuckles.
13:11The little joints in your toes.
13:13On your hips.
13:15I expect that one will stop you from sleeping from the moment it begins.
13:19I'll take a look.
13:40You know it well, Billy.
13:45It's in my knees a bit.
13:53Can he still hold tomorrow?
13:56I'd be very surprised.
14:02Mike.
14:04Hey.
14:06Be calm, Billy.
14:08Be calm.
14:13We'll make the best of a bad situation.
14:17Like we always have.
14:39I won't either.
14:41Doctor.
14:42What's that, Mr. Gibson?
14:44Confidence.
14:46Any of us.
14:48Where?
14:52No.
14:53Yeah.
14:53Yeah.
15:02I don't know.
15:51I don't know.
15:53I don't know.
15:55I don't know.

20:07I don't know.
20:08Heart's horn and comfort is having very little effects.
20:19I don't know.
20:21I'm not Christ.
20:27My body.
20:32Jesus.
20:37Faith man.
20:39Francis.
20:45God wants you to live.
20:47He wants you to live.
20:52God wants you to live.
20:58Muscles are in spasms.
20:59They come Richard.
21:01I don't know.
21:03I...
21:04Francis.
21:05Help me.
21:06Help me.
21:10Help me.
21:11Help me.
21:11Help me.
21:12Help me.
21:15Help me.
21:16I'm certain, James.
21:18I'm certain.
21:32Leave us, Mr. Bridgens.
21:34Sure.
21:37If I may use this.
21:41His reflexes will try to spit it out.
21:44You'll have to help it down.
21:46Like this.
21:52It's an honour serving you, sir.
21:57You're a good man.
21:59There will be poems.
22:01There will be poems.
22:26There will be poems in those poems.
22:31So sweet, sweet, sweet and sweet, sweet.
23:29Do you wish to speak, sir?
23:31I set a service with him last night, just the two of us.
23:36Let the others pray over him, if they like.
23:40Then hide him in the landscape, Edward.
23:44Make him invisible.
23:49Don't want him found and poured.
23:53Yes, sir.
23:55If he'd had our wits about us, James and I would have taken a shot.
23:59How far out from camp was this?
24:01Not more than a mile now, sir.
24:04West of us again.
24:05With a downwind.
24:07He's tracking us.
24:09Or trying to.
24:12Lieutenant Little, gather the men.
24:13We'll discuss the strategy.
24:15Sir.
24:21We need high ground.
24:24Put all the sick in the middle and face it down with all the ammo we've got.
24:30I've got a strategy, Francis.
24:32You cut in land a bit, and I drive it back out into the ice.
24:36Not possible.
24:37Yeah, it is.
24:38I smell like a thousand-year-old armpit.
24:40I mean, permission not granted.
24:44Not saying goodbye to two friends in one day.
24:49It's free me and you.
24:51Francis, I'm done for.
24:53If you need to ride in a damn boat, I'll put you there myself.
25:08Mr. Wheats could make another one.
25:11I'm going to have to cut it a lot higher this time.
25:13And that's only for the time being.
25:17Let's not make me or Mr. Bridgens go through that, shall we?
25:20Even Harold Thomas, why don't you speak up?
25:22I kept it tidy.
25:23No one could have done a better job.
25:26Jesus Christ.
25:30Francis, we both know what's coming for me now.
25:34At least love me enough to admit it.
25:57What do you need?
25:59I've got half a pouch for my last smoke.
26:03That'll do for me.
26:07But I'll take some forks off you and the men.
26:09You know, 40 or 50.
26:12Forks?
26:13Aye, and a piece of rope.
26:15Enough to go around me a few times.
26:1815 feet should do it.
26:25That's not...
26:27Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
26:34Oh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
26:36Ha, ha, ha!
27:06Push it!
27:12Follow up!
27:30Run down!
27:44Henrik!
27:46Henrik!
27:55John...
27:56Can we sleep?
28:00Yes.
28:02Yes.
28:07Help me get him up.
28:11Hold on, Henrik.
28:16Hey!
28:19No, no, no!
28:24No, no, no, no!
28:34No, no, no!
28:38No, no, no!
28:53No, no, no, no!
28:55Can someone tell me, please,
28:59if they also see that bird?
29:16Oh no!
29:18They've made camp again.
29:20About six miles away.
29:22And there was a friendly face among them.
29:23They're pitching all their tents now.
29:26They must plan to be there a while.
29:31Make a camp here then.
29:37In the bosom of this hill.
30:01There you are, Sergeant.
30:05Mr Goodson.
30:11I'll not do this.
30:13It's why you were brought.
30:16You're an anatomist.
30:21You've cut up more bodies than you can probably now remember.
30:25Twenty.
30:27I've performed on twenty.
30:30Why?
30:34And don't say for my education.
30:37You did so for the greater benefit of others.
30:42For the sick.
30:44For the dying.
30:48In hopes of helping them.
30:52That is exactly where we are now.
30:56You've murdered this man.
30:59And you now wish to eat.
31:00And you're unwilling to butcher his flesh yourself.
31:03But you will have to.
31:06We do not know which parts.
31:08Yes you do. Of course you do.
31:12If I'm reading right your accent, Mr Hickey.
31:17You grew up in a home where you'd have to use every part of any meat or fowl your man
31:22could procure.
31:24So if you want to eat your friend.
31:28You're going to have to cut into him yourself.
31:34Do not ask me again.
31:40I am now deciding which parts of Lieutenant Hodgson I will cut into first.
31:49First.
31:51For every hour.
31:53You refuse to apply yourself to this.
31:57You will stand apart no longer.
31:59You will stand apart no longer.
32:00I will take you.
32:07I will give you some advice.
32:11Don't indulge your morals.
32:15Over your practicals.
32:18Not now.
32:25Don't you also want to live?
32:39Sit with it an hour.
32:42And then...
32:44we'll consider your choice made.
33:13I'm not troubling any of you.
33:14Stand up, Lieutenant.
33:16Break my hand that way.
33:17Let him be!
33:18Let him be!
33:23Give me 40 minutes!
33:54Give me 40 minutes!
