00:04:58Let's go.
00:05:28What are you looking at?
00:05:34All powder, paint, scent, earrings, or other jewellery, etc. must be avoided.
00:05:40Miss Christie?
00:05:44What else?
00:05:45Forms of address. Oh, that's fearfully important.
00:05:47You become Miss Napier.
00:05:49Miss Napier?
00:05:50Yes, I did. Standard for all VADs.
00:05:53Miss, even if you've been married.
00:05:55I see, yes.
00:05:57There's such a parcel of duffers at Socky Hall Street.
00:05:59Why haven't they sent you one of these?
00:06:00Probably planned to.
00:06:02Also last minute.
00:06:03My word, wasn't it?
00:06:04You could have done with you months ago.
00:06:06I've always been eager.
00:06:08Mother, less so.
00:06:10Ah, well, yes.
00:06:13Did we hear that you had not been well again?
00:06:16Oh, no.
00:06:18No, no, that's all long past.
00:06:20Oh, look here, you take this and study it at your leisure.
00:06:23All right.
00:06:24For the rest, rub along and learn on your feet.
00:06:27Yes.
00:06:28Yes.
00:06:31Well, telephone to the railway station yourself, then.
00:06:35Ten men don't just disappear in the thin air.
00:06:41So, unless there's anything you're absolutely pining to ask...
00:06:45There is, yes.
00:06:46Shall I be required to do any actual nursing at first?
00:06:49Oh, good gracious, I shouldn't think so.
00:06:51With not so much as a home nursing certificate.
00:06:54I doubt if Sister McCabe would let you anywhere near a man for weeks.
00:06:58Are you wondering if you'll bear up?
00:07:00Oh, no.
00:07:01No, no, I'm sure I shall.
00:07:02I'm sure you'll rock on your pins, my dear.
00:07:05We all did.
00:07:06There's no shame in that.
00:07:08You'll soon get in tow.
00:07:10Good.
00:07:11Yes.
00:07:13However, I shall offer one piece of advice.
00:07:16Should you meet one of the men today, look him straight in the eye.
00:07:19Remember, he'll be watching very closely to see how you respond to his blighty.
00:07:22To his?
00:07:23Blighty.
00:07:24His blighty wound.
00:07:25It has to be bad enough to send him home.
00:07:27So it's straight in the eye.
00:07:29Then when you come to know him better, you may revert to Sister McCabe's.
00:07:32Favourite, Maxim.
00:07:34Treat them well, look after them, but eyes down.
00:07:37And remember, they have womenfolk of their own.
00:07:40They're getting you ready for a dunking, Jeg.
00:07:42Don't know, Ken.
00:07:43Can you wait? I'll see you, lad.
00:07:44Royalty's bathed in it.
00:07:45Now you, Jeg.
00:07:46Everything you can want here, son.
00:07:48Cookie even tells me she's laying on a special treat for you first dinner time.
00:07:51What's that?
00:07:52Who are from the village?
00:07:54Kaiser's Heed.
00:07:54What?
00:07:55Is there a whore?
00:07:56Gentlemen, please.
00:07:57Haggis.
00:07:57Yes.
00:07:58You don't like Haggis Lancerbumhole?
00:08:00Ach, you would have seen it in the wild, eh, Jeg?
00:08:02Nae wings, nae heed, nae legs.
00:08:04Oh, my God, that plucky wee thing.
00:08:05That's the whop I'm never there.
00:08:08Psst, the gentleman.
00:08:10Here, Stanley, saying thank you.
00:08:13Good morning, sir.
00:08:15Good morning, sir.
00:08:27Sunday nights were family nights in here, absolutely sacred.
00:08:30No outsiders allowed.
00:08:32You'd each have to prepare a little something, you see.
00:08:34David had the most beautiful singing voice.
00:08:36Beautiful.
00:08:37And especially in the German.
00:08:39Especially Schubert.
00:08:40Oh, I know the awful thing is, we're not supposed to listen to them anymore.
00:08:45Someone wonders if it might not help.
00:08:47I am so sorry.
00:08:57Oh, that's excellent.
00:08:59Lie back.
00:09:02Slight adduction, but very excellent job.
00:09:05You should feel bucked for this done with Charing Cross, of course, rather than the scene of the crime.
00:09:11All right, now, you tell me if it hurts.
00:09:13Charing Cross, of course, of course, of course, of course.
00:09:44Yes, I know.
00:09:45Try and relax.
00:09:47Lie back.
00:09:49Do as you're told, Ross.
00:09:51Yes, sir.
00:09:52You're doing very well, Ross.
00:09:54It's best if I locate any adhesions early on.
00:09:57Do you understand?
00:09:58Yes, sir.
00:10:00It's all right.
00:10:01You're doing very well.
00:10:30We're here.
00:10:35Very good morning, Sergeant Tyler.
00:10:38Morning, Mr. Hannay.
00:10:52I'm thinking, is this the special water?
00:10:54Are you a fair trail?
00:10:56Nah, no really.
00:10:58They don't spring here.
00:11:00A holy well, as the ancient call it.
00:11:03And then James Eyler, the sixth or seventh, I can never remember.
00:11:07He bathed in it and was cured of some contagion or other.
00:11:10But then it became a king's well, you know.
00:11:13Anyhow, it's very fine mineral water.
00:11:16Particularly good for my shell shop.
00:11:18And, of course, you lot.
00:11:19Gross black legs, is it?
00:11:21Morning.
00:11:26Hannay, did you not hear me calling you?
00:11:28Indeed, yes, sister.
00:11:29If I were not fully occupied, I...
00:11:31Ah, well, never mind.
00:11:32His comrades have arrived at last.
00:11:34They went to Lady Fardyce first.
00:11:49You!
00:11:51Sharkley!
00:11:52You!
00:12:01Sharkley!
00:12:04Sharkley!
00:12:05Sharkley!
00:12:05Sharkley!
00:12:06Sharkley!
00:12:07Sharkley!
00:12:07Sharkley!

00:12:15Sharkley!
00:12:26Sharkley!
00:12:27What temperature, dear?
00:12:29I'm no sure nurse.
00:12:30I cannae take it too hot in account of my like nurse.
00:12:32but I think I'm supposed to take it as hot as I can.
00:12:35I see.
00:12:37I'm afraid you're going to have to remove your robe now.
00:12:42Do I do that?
00:12:43No, no, I can't.
00:12:45Right.
00:12:47Come along.
00:13:02Come along.
00:13:45I was in France.
00:13:49I'm sorry.
00:13:52No, no, this was years ago.
00:13:55And I remember some parts of the countryside being so beautiful,
00:13:58particularly round about now with the water now.
00:14:02Did you not?
00:14:04I mean, I know.
00:14:06Yet weren't there moments, sudden moments.
00:14:10One of my brothers who's there, Gregory,
00:14:12was remarking how
00:14:13made to retains her power come what may.
00:14:18Did you find that?
00:14:22Nurse, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can remove my drawers myself.
00:14:27No.
00:14:29Of course.
00:14:30Of course you can't.
00:14:31Son.
00:14:33Sorry, nurse.
00:14:36My leg is very tender.
00:14:39The flesh is very tender.
00:14:42The blighty.
00:14:44The blighty is very tender.
00:14:50Well, come along.
00:14:52You're just going to have to show me what to do.
00:14:54Can I help you, please?
00:15:11Now, which way?
00:15:13Where do you need me to be?
00:15:14Oh, sure.
00:15:19Your hand's coming here.
00:15:20It's okay.
00:15:25Please, nurse, ma'am, you know?
00:15:27No.
00:15:28Yes.
00:15:31Please, nurse, you have to.
00:15:32I'm not a nurse.
00:15:33I'm a miss.
00:15:34Apparently, you saw...
00:15:35Oh!
00:15:39All right.
00:15:39Hello.
00:15:40Everyone all right?
00:15:41All right.
00:15:42All right.
00:15:43All right.
00:16:03No appetite.
00:16:06At this hour.
00:16:09Wasn't Gregory saying...
00:16:12No war has been so just since the Crusades?
00:16:17Surely a tiny delay in dinner.
00:16:29Are they terribly glum, the men?
00:16:31Not a bit of it.
00:16:34Well, they are alive, you see.
00:16:38There are officers there.
00:16:40This place of yours, it is for officers.
00:16:43You know it isn't.
00:16:45You know I tried, but this place isn't.
00:16:48Forgive me, but you do know.
00:16:53Oh, we give thee thanks, Almighty God, for these and all thy benefits.
00:16:57Unificent rain is at the world, I think.
00:17:02What I do know is that you have no experience of men,
00:17:07no experience of life,
00:17:09no experience of anything.
00:17:13You'll fail in this.
00:17:15You have the strength.
00:17:18Good night.
00:17:20Good night, Mother.
00:17:23Good night, Jardine.
00:17:24Good night, my lady.
00:17:31Jardine.
00:17:32Lady Alice.
00:17:35Has Marie finished her duties for this evening?
00:17:38Oh, yes, my lady.
00:17:39I should like to see her, please.
00:17:42I fear she will be in bed by now, my lady.
00:17:44Yes.
00:17:46I am sorry about that.
00:17:48Of course, my lady.
00:17:57Have a look.
00:17:59Have a look.
00:18:16Bye-bye.
00:18:17Bye-bye.
00:18:50I'll see you next time.
00:19:36And why are we not done in here?
00:19:40Now is not the time for that, my lads.
00:19:42I think you know that, do we not?
00:19:52Out, out, out!
00:19:53Out!
00:19:54Out!
00:19:56This smells like a midden yard.
00:19:58That should have been done hours ago.
00:20:01Miss Rolot?
00:20:02Should you not be in Ward 4 by now?
00:20:06And the VAD never runs, Miss Dinkia.
00:20:09Never runs.
00:20:24Oh, jeez.
00:20:29Balance yourself back.
00:20:30I'll see if you're counting.
00:20:33All right, I'm here.
00:20:41Oh, it's not this.
00:20:58Bastard gully pit.
00:21:07What are you looking at?
00:21:10What are you looking at?
00:21:14What are you looking at?
00:21:16What is it we have, eh?
00:21:18Let me see, it's a little shock.
00:21:20I see he's shirking.
00:21:21Who's our Batman?
00:21:22So can you expect?
00:21:23That's better.
00:21:25Now I shall look absolutely it.
00:21:27Now people will say,
00:21:28Oh, look, there goes one of our angels of mercy.
00:21:33Did you ever hold a fancy for nursing?
00:21:37Not really.
00:21:40Oh, perhaps for a while you know what children are like.
00:21:43One week it was Lady of the Lamp,
00:21:45the next it was taking the veil, and so on.
00:21:48I suppose this is a way of combining the two.
00:21:50My word, can't say we ever pictured
00:21:52Sarn as a convent.
00:21:54No, but my brother Gregory,
00:21:58he's doing service as a chaplain,
00:21:59and he had leave just before Holy Week,
00:22:01and he gave this most beautiful sermon in the chapel.
00:22:05It spoke of how every soldier
00:22:07treads his own Via Dolorosa.
00:22:10There's a cross for soldiers' pack.
00:22:13Did you know every pack weighs exactly the same as a cross?
00:22:16There's the crown of thorns, their tin hats,
00:22:19and the stripping of the garments
00:22:20is the un-dressing of the wounded.
00:22:29Ah!
00:22:47You're new, Ian, Joe.
00:22:48I cry.
00:22:50You ken as all, then?
00:22:51I have to.
00:22:52So I know how big to make this grave.
00:22:55Oh, help.
00:22:58You for the estate?
00:22:59Nah, the village.
00:23:00I can't help my grandda.
00:23:02Dougie, Alex, all his men,
00:23:04all the way through the fighting.
00:23:05It's a big job to end this play.
00:23:07You the bath yet?
00:23:08Aye, I've had a bath.
00:23:10In the king's water.
00:23:11Don't you start with that.
00:23:12No, that's gospel.
00:23:14That's my grandda.
00:23:15It's holy, the king's water.
00:23:16It can give you fertility.
00:23:18Is that right?
00:23:18And what would you ken about fertility?
00:23:20It can grow your legs.
00:23:22No, I'm telling you,
00:23:23here's a leg.
00:23:24Growing, growing,
00:23:26growing, growing.
00:23:51Excuse me, miss.
00:23:54Are you planning something
00:23:54Saturday evening?
00:23:56An item, I mean,
00:23:57in the concert?
00:23:58Certainly not.
00:24:02Shall you do something, Joe?
00:24:05Aye, miss.
00:24:05They're making me do
00:24:06a piece of bones.
00:24:08Spend it.
00:24:10I shall look forward to that.
00:24:14I'm planning to regale them
00:24:15with our VAD jokes.
00:24:17Actually, now's the time to...
00:24:19Attention, please.
00:24:20I'd like to collect
00:24:21our VAD jokes.
00:24:23So we could all have
00:24:23a wee thing.
00:24:24Very helpful, darling.
00:24:25Very active, just like...
00:24:26And I'm waiting.
00:24:27I want to jot them down.
00:24:28The morning is night.
00:24:29Go with your night.
00:24:31Oi.
00:24:34Merchers from there.
00:24:35Have you not been pressing?
00:24:36They are rubber.
00:24:38That's the night.
00:24:41Don't be young.
00:24:44I return.
00:24:58Virgin's are damp.
00:25:03Henereal auxiliary disease.
00:25:07Vaginas are dexterous.
00:25:10Would you cry vaginas at home anyway?
00:25:39Yes.
00:25:42This area's out of bounds.
00:25:44Since you're here, make yourselves useful.
00:25:46Yes, coming down.
00:25:47At the common bank, five minutes.
00:25:49Yes, coming down.
00:25:54If you want that roof, look that soon he's coming down.
00:25:56I should say.
00:25:58Pity is there's no one left to attend to it.
00:26:00Were either of you roofers?
00:26:01We're coming down.
00:26:02Poor old brute.
00:26:07Oh, look.
00:26:12He must come back, you know.
00:26:14When we put it together again, this place.
00:26:16Must come back and see what it was like.
00:26:19See what it can be.
00:26:20Must come back.
00:26:38All right, Sister.
00:26:40There could be found for the concept.
00:26:41Isn't it just the thing?
00:26:42Beg pardon, Commandant.
00:26:43Back to the ward, you two.
00:26:45We shall have words later.
00:26:47Sister.
00:26:48Yes.
00:26:51Beg pardon, Commandant.
00:26:52But if you require assistance, I'll summon up honey or mort.
00:26:58Is this your work?
00:27:00I'll ask again.
00:27:01Did you rule this?
00:27:03Sister.
00:27:03Commandant, would you care to examine this?
00:27:07Dog.
00:27:08Blah, you may go.
00:27:09Commandant.
00:27:10Thank you, Blah.
00:27:14Nanny Blah has served my family loyally for many, many years, as has Cook and others,
00:27:19who are helping out as best they can.
00:27:22Never, never let me hear you talk to my staff in that tone again.
00:27:26Commandant, I am forced, as you've just pointed out, to run this infirmary with very little
00:27:31professional staff.
00:27:33I, too, am doing my best.
00:27:36But so long as that old woman wears a uniform, high uniform it might as well have come out
00:27:41of you.
00:27:42As long as she does, she comes under my jurisdiction.
00:27:46She is my staff.
00:27:51I shall resign.
00:27:53Again?
00:27:55I shall have to.
00:27:57She is essential.
00:27:58I'm not.
00:27:59Elspeth, that's not true.
00:28:01It's that bullying.
00:28:02Treats them as if they were going back into action.
00:28:05It's no wonder they just carry on joking and swaggering and putting up a front.
00:28:10Surely now is the time for them to talk about what's happened.
00:28:12About what they've lost.
00:28:14Grieve a while.
00:28:16Or the shell shot.
00:28:18There must be some better treatment than plopping them into a hot bath.
00:28:20Well, I'm not sure we can blame Sister McCabe for that.
00:28:24Oh.
00:28:24Malamas understands much, but...
00:28:26She said Blah's uniform was a joke.
00:28:30She didn't mean Blah's.
00:28:32She meant mine.
00:28:33Oh, well, yes.
00:28:34All share that.
00:28:36I doubt if anyone's very convinced by this.
00:28:40Captain.
00:28:42Sounds so silly.
00:28:44You think of ships.
00:28:46Did you know they allow us to have the uniform specially designed?
00:28:50Couture, if you fancy.
00:28:52Sable Fordyce went to Revali Rossiter.
00:28:55Hmm.
00:28:56Why didn't you?
00:28:58Has no one noticed that I'm serious?
00:29:04Shall I pour you a whiskey?
00:29:06No.
00:29:09I said no.
00:29:13I said no.
00:29:14I shouldn't like you to pour me a whiskey.
00:29:18Elspeth, the last time...
00:29:20Please.
00:29:21Beth.
00:29:22I've asked her before.
00:29:24Beth.
00:29:26You were saying, the last time?
00:29:29It was only a fortnight ago, and didn't we agree that...
00:29:32We did.
00:29:33But it's terribly important to keep changing the rules, don't you think?
00:29:37Else we could end up like Sister McCabe.
00:29:39Maybe...
00:29:50Yikes, Woof!
00:29:56Walk down.
00:29:57So I assumed you and we didn't make a light today
00:30:01I wanted to make one day and night
00:30:03To you.
00:30:13We are having one decent tot, then a medium to small booster, and Beth, that is all.
00:30:22Yes, Captain.
00:30:32The King's will.
00:30:36And long may he so remain.
00:30:59You sure they can't hear?
00:31:06Certainly.
00:31:10Shall I stop it?
00:31:16Long letter from Sheila today.
00:31:19Incredible.
00:31:20She's virtually running the hospital now.
00:31:23Sheila says it's doing wonders for her French.
00:31:28Apparently, she might get leave in July, and I...
00:31:32Who did it from whom?
00:31:33Sheila.
00:31:35My wife.
00:31:38Ah, yes.
00:31:40Sheila.
00:31:42And I was wondering if she should join me here.
00:31:49Be very restful for her.
00:31:53What do you think?
00:31:59Hmm?
00:32:02Ah.
00:32:04This of you?
00:32:10Robert brought her back after the South African War.
00:32:13Who did?
00:32:15Ah.
00:32:17Was she always like that?
00:32:19Can't remember.
00:32:21Curiously improved.
00:32:23Do you speak as a lover of art or a lopper of limbs?
00:32:30It's true.
00:32:31It's marvelous, that gap.
00:32:34Dead when they're perfect.
00:32:41These were David's.
00:32:43His 14th birthday.
00:32:45Yes.
00:33:04But on this day.
00:33:07Oh, you're alive!
00:33:15Yeah, yes!
00:33:26I heard how splendid.
00:33:28Sergeant Tyler, Miss Bannertine, thank you.
00:33:32And now, yes, now, a short skit entitled
00:33:37Incidents That Do Not Happen During a Morning in the Drawing Room Ward.
00:33:52I see it, Miss Bannertine.
00:33:57Look, here comes Captain Limholt.
00:34:03Tell me, my good chap, does this hurt?
00:34:08Relax. Here?
00:34:12What about here?
00:34:15Dolly!
00:34:19Can't surprise your man off the sea.
00:34:25Private Dolny, get down.
00:34:27Here, Miss Bannertine, there.
00:34:29The quarry, there.
00:34:30Don't mind you.

00:35:19Thank you, Private Ross.
00:35:21A splendid piece, a splendid deliverance, and all that.
00:35:26And now, Miss Christie is...
00:35:30Shh!
00:35:31He killed ten thousand Germans
00:35:33with only a couple of bombs
00:35:36One lay here and one lay there
00:35:39and one lay round the corner
00:35:41and one poor sod with his leg hanging off
00:35:43was crying out for water
00:35:45Are you looking at? Don't look.
00:35:47It's a long way to Tipperary
00:35:54It's a long way to Tipperary
00:35:59It's a long way to go
00:36:03It's a long way to Tipperary
00:36:08To the sweetest girl I know
00:36:31Hello?
00:36:33All right, Joe, my chums to the village wanted to see one of you.
00:36:37This is my mate Joe, he's one of them.
00:36:40What come there, he won't harm you?
00:36:42Course I wouldn't.
00:36:43Where is it?
00:36:45What?
00:36:45Where you got it.
00:36:47So is where you put it.
00:36:49Your leg.
00:36:49Like I said, he has any.
00:36:52Some with arms away.
00:36:53Arms?
00:36:54And all their hands.
00:36:55Hands?
00:36:56That's gospel, isn't it, Joe?
00:36:58I've put it in the King's Holy War.
00:37:00I've seen.
00:37:00Mix it up, why?
00:37:01I've seen.
00:37:02Someone's here.
00:37:03I've been looking to, Joe.
00:37:05She's a baby.
00:37:06It doesn't, Joe's.
00:37:08Go on, Joe's.
00:37:09Joe, Joe, please.
00:37:11I'm eating, Joe's.
00:37:12Wake yourself.
00:37:30Oh, Draco.
00:37:32Don't worry.
00:39:11Really?
00:39:13Better now.
00:39:14Nothing like a breath of fresh air is there.
00:39:16Right.
00:39:17I'll start in here.
00:39:18Thanks.
00:39:34Good morning, cook.
00:39:41Good morning, Father.
00:39:42Good morning, Father McPherson.
00:39:44Good morning, Father.
00:39:45Good morning, Father McPherson.

00:39:53Morning. Good morning.
00:39:54Good morning, Father Maxwell.
00:39:56Oh, good morning, Lady McKillenway.
00:40:47CHOIR SINGS
00:40:49As shepherds watched their flocks by night
00:40:52All seated on the ground
00:40:57A high explosive shell came down
00:41:01And mutton rained around
00:41:04Oh, yes.
00:41:13Whosoever he be that hath any blemish,
00:41:16let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
00:41:19A blind man or a lame
00:41:21A blind man or a lame
00:41:24Or he that hath a flat nose
00:41:26Or anything superfluous
00:41:27Or a man that is broken-footed
00:41:30Or broken-handed
00:41:31Or crook-backed
00:41:33Or a dwarf
00:41:34He shall not profane my sanctuaries
00:41:38He shall...
00:41:39He shall...
00:41:45What are you looking at?
00:41:48You...
00:41:58Corpus Domini nostri
00:42:02Do you pick up any souvenirs?
00:42:07I have a Bosch balaclava
00:42:08...
00:42:36I have a Bosch balaclava
00:42:38There's blood there, or mud.
00:42:43I gave him one of Major Lansbury's favourite biscuits,
00:42:46and then he died.
00:42:48But he won't Major Lansbury instead.
00:42:52He hadn't a clue how schooled I am.
00:42:55The hotel where I used to work in Southport,
00:42:59they'd ask for me special.
00:43:01All of the top people would,
00:43:03just for the conversation they noticed whilst they were dining.
00:43:07They never knew I could see it all from where I was standing.
00:43:11Slime on their collars.
00:43:13Greybacks crawling in their air.
00:43:15I could have poisoned them all.
00:43:17Or they led us off to war.
00:43:19I could have been a right hero.
00:43:22Poor lad.
00:43:31You can smell.
00:43:33That's why you keep it wrapped up.
00:43:37Don't tell.
00:43:38Rest on him.
00:43:42God saved the king.
00:43:45Quino nex sanguinibus,
00:43:48neque ex voluntate carnis,
00:43:50neque ex voluntate viri,
00:43:53sed ex Deo nati sunt.
00:43:56Et verbum caro factum est,
00:43:59et habitavit in nobis.
00:44:01Et vidimus gloriam eius,
00:44:04gloriam quasi unigenitia patrie,
00:44:07plenum grazie et veritatis.
00:44:11Deo gratias.
00:44:16I'm so sorry.
00:44:19I'm so frightfully sorry.
00:44:22So I'm sorry,
00:44:23Commandant.
00:44:23So am I?
00:44:24Yes,
00:44:25I shall have to be away home.
00:44:26I'd rather not.
00:44:28It's all right,
00:44:28my dear.
00:44:29Sister,
00:44:29may we discuss this when...
00:44:31We can discuss it when you like,
00:44:33Commandant,
00:44:33but I'm not having our VADs
00:44:35nust on these premises.
00:44:37I have not the staff.
00:44:38Sister,
00:44:39I do know.
00:44:39I do work here too.
00:44:43I do work here too.
00:44:44Excuse me,
00:44:44ladies.
00:44:46Gardening.
00:44:47Oh,
00:44:48thank you.
00:44:52How long ago?
00:44:53Days and days,
00:44:55sir.
00:44:58Could we,
00:44:58uh...
00:44:59Captain,
00:45:00whose responsibility
00:45:01will the Nassang be?
00:45:03Oh,
00:45:03for goodness sake.
00:45:06Oh,
00:45:08think about that,
00:45:09shall we?
00:45:10Okay.
00:45:39Not my fault,
00:45:40always ill.
00:45:42Up and about soon.
00:45:47never-ending
00:45:48world without end.
00:45:55Better soon.
00:45:57Oh,
00:45:58yes.
00:46:01Poor thing.
00:46:03Must have been an appalling agony.
00:46:05Never said a word.
00:46:06Why have not?
00:46:09Didn't wish
00:46:10to be of any trouble.
00:46:15didn't think she had it in her.
00:46:17Mind you,
00:46:18she is a papist.
00:46:19Hmm.
00:46:20We'll take care of her now,
00:46:21yes?
00:46:23Oh,
00:46:23absolutely.
00:46:25But,
00:46:25uh,
00:46:25Sister McCabe
00:46:26seems to think
00:46:27that the rules say...
00:46:28Then we change the rules.
00:46:30I'm so sick and tired.
00:46:37Oh,
00:46:38dear.
00:46:41Getting this place over
00:46:42in the beginning
00:46:42in the beginning
00:46:43was so...
00:46:44I just sent a purpose.
00:46:46Good.
00:46:47Didn't even notice
00:46:49Sister McCabe
00:46:49in the early days.
00:46:51Can she feel anything?
00:46:55Gazing towards
00:46:56the German lines,
00:46:58they witnessed
00:46:58an unforgettable sight.
00:47:00It seemed as if
00:47:01the Messines Ridge
00:47:03got up and shook itself.
00:47:05Got up and shook itself?
00:47:07Aye.
00:47:08There's some celebrating
00:47:09among your lads today,
00:47:10Eric.
00:47:11Aye.
00:47:11But who wouldn't
00:47:12rather be here?
00:47:14Oh, my,
00:47:15that's looking
00:47:16bonnie.
00:47:19Now,
00:47:20how are you,
00:47:20sister?
00:47:21Is this tale right
00:47:22that Miss Napier's been
00:47:23wounded in action like?
00:47:25Aye.
00:47:25Aye,
00:47:26I'm afraid it is.
00:47:27What,
00:47:27and by a splinter,
00:47:28sister?
00:47:29That is correct,
00:47:30yes.
00:47:31Bad crack,
00:47:32that leak,
00:47:32sister.
00:47:33It is.
00:47:35And before you ask,
00:47:37no,
00:47:38we've not decided
00:47:39whether to ampute it.
00:47:41Our ladyship's
00:47:42lost the nails so far,
00:47:45but we're hoping
00:47:45to save the digit.
00:48:14Hey,
00:48:14Jake,
00:48:15no training?
00:48:21Ach,

00:48:24It's like the rest of the world's
00:48:25away someplace,
00:48:25eh?
00:48:29Spoke too soon.
00:48:31God bless the army,
00:48:33I always be sure
00:48:34of some folk about.
00:48:36Mind you,
00:48:36it makes it easier,
00:48:37eh?
00:48:38Over there,
00:48:40here,
00:48:41easier,
00:48:41eh?
00:48:43I suppose it's like kin,
00:48:44only safer.
00:48:48So,
00:48:49chant to your father.
00:48:52Chant to him.
00:48:55God bless the army,
00:48:57God bless the king.
00:49:10I don't get to do that.
00:49:11I don't get to do that.
00:49:12Not to me,
00:49:13you hear?
00:49:14Don't.
00:49:14Don't,
00:49:15eh, Jakey?
00:49:16Don't.
00:49:16Just speak to me.
00:49:26It's nothing.
00:49:28I'm just worried that everybody's taking things off me.
00:49:33But I just keep on taking,
00:49:35taking.
00:49:36I tell you as well,
00:49:37just keep on taking it.
00:49:39Taking it and taking it.
00:49:41And you're just a big ween.
00:49:42You're just feeling sorry for yourself.
00:49:43I don't feel anything.
00:49:45That's no true.
00:49:46I can feel my knee.
00:49:47My knee itches,
00:49:47it hurts.
00:49:48I go to scratch my knee.
00:49:50You can feel it,
00:49:51it's there.
00:49:51I look down
00:49:52and it's no there.
00:49:54Sure.
00:49:55Sure.
00:49:55I look down
00:49:56and there's nothing there.
00:49:58No a man,
00:49:58nothing.
00:50:00Aye,
00:50:00I know.
00:50:01Oh,
00:50:02you don't know.
00:50:03You say it does not matter
00:50:05so long as I spoke about,
00:50:06so it's different for us.
00:50:08A thing like this,
00:50:09there is no us.
00:50:10It's me.
00:50:11The trouble is,
00:50:12I look in the mirror
00:50:13and it's no me.
00:50:14That's no who I remember.
00:50:16Well,
00:50:17you better get to know him.
00:50:26I've seen you,
00:50:27Jeggy.
00:50:39All right,
00:50:39Gus.
00:50:40All right,
00:50:40Joe.
00:50:54All right.
00:51:49Go!
00:52:51I'm going, then.
00:52:52Don't be daft.
00:52:54Come on.
00:52:58What are you looking at, please?
00:53:00Not in the Lord's work before.
00:53:47Let's see how it is.
00:53:54Let's go.
00:54:24All right, let's go.
00:54:49Go on, Archie!
00:54:51Go!
00:54:55Go!
00:54:56Go!
00:54:58Go!
00:55:03Go!
00:55:04Go!
00:55:06Go!
00:55:08Go!
00:55:10Go!
00:55:17Go!
00:55:21Go!
00:55:21Go!
00:55:21Do you have a moment, sir?
00:55:49Give us a moment, please!
00:55:50Go one more round!
00:55:54Okay.
00:55:56I got him!
00:56:01Here it goes!
00:56:02Or how are you?
00:56:06Oh, come on.
00:56:06Oh!
00:56:06Let's go!
00:56:13Who is that?
00:56:17It's me, Miss.
00:56:18Jeg.
00:56:45Are those for me?
00:56:57I grow these at home.
00:57:07Are you all right, Miss?
00:57:09Yes, very well, thank you.
00:57:13At any rate, I'll amend.
00:57:16They'll not have to amputate, then?
00:57:18No.
00:57:23Are your people here today?
00:57:27No, Miss.
00:57:28Oh.
00:57:29Pity.
00:57:30Aye, Miss.
00:57:33Well, I'm not so sure.
00:57:35I'm not sure if my mother and father wouldn't be just a wee bit scared.
00:57:38Of the games?
00:57:41Well, just seeing the men, thinking, what kind of jobs will they ever have.
00:57:51Different things get different folk, Miss.
00:58:01Miss, I...
00:58:05Anyway, I get a pass one day.
00:58:08I want to see my sister, Moira.
00:58:10She's dead good, Moira.
00:58:10Is she your favorite?
00:58:13Is she your favorite?
00:58:13Aye, Miss.
00:58:18Hadn't you better sit down?
00:58:43I have a favorite brother.
00:58:45Gregory.
00:58:47Gregory.
00:58:47Did I mention...
00:58:50I want to hear you say his name?
00:58:54Do you not have staff, Miss?
00:58:56I'm sorry?
00:58:58Where do you live?
00:58:59Do you not have staff that would say it like me?
00:59:03No, I meant someone who doesn't know him.
00:59:06Someone here.
00:59:19You know, I understand you better now.
00:59:22All of you.
00:59:23Somehow, now, I've been ill in this house.
00:59:26Ill?
00:59:28I know it's not the same.
00:59:29I know it's not.
00:59:30Aye, isnae.
00:59:31I havenae been ill.
00:59:33Somebody did this to me.
00:59:36Sat round the table, made plans, tactics.
00:59:40They decided it.
00:59:42No.
00:59:43Decided, yes, but not by man.
00:59:46You have been given your cross.
00:59:53Aye, Miss.
00:59:54Sorry, Miss.
00:59:55There will be some good reason to it.
01:00:07Come on!
01:00:08Come on!
01:00:10Come on!
01:00:12Come on!
01:00:14Come on!
01:00:15Come on!
01:00:15Come on!
01:00:16Come on!
01:00:16Come on!
01:00:16Come on!
01:00:16Come on!
01:00:17Come on!
01:00:19Come on!
01:00:20Oh, my!
01:00:21Who's gone all glum?
01:00:24I'm going to teach you a rhyme that Gregory taught me when we were little, yes?
01:00:30Say after me, O grant that light to Peter I, may light to Peter be.
01:00:42May light to Peter be.
01:00:44And tell me lovely Jesus why.
01:00:48And tell me lovely Jesus why.
01:00:50Old Jonah went to sea.
01:00:53Old Jonah?
01:00:53No.
01:00:54I don't get this, Miss.
01:00:55No, you have to.
01:00:56Give me your hand.
01:01:12O grant that light to Peter I, yes?
01:01:17May light to Peter be.
01:01:19I see.
01:01:21Lovely Jesus why.
01:01:22Or Jonah went to sea, yes?
01:01:27I see.
01:01:29You what?
01:01:39I...
01:01:42see.
01:01:46Very good.
01:01:48Itis.
01:01:51Right!
01:01:52Right!
01:01:54Jackie!
01:01:55Come on!
01:01:58Up!
01:01:58Up!
01:01:59Steady!
01:02:00Hey.
01:02:01Bust you a bastard in the head, man.
01:02:03I keep on trying to kick the ball in my leg and it's no there.
01:02:05Ah, but you're doing first right, big man.
01:02:06First right.
01:02:08You all right, son?
01:02:09And tell me lovely Jesus why this Peter went to sea by John Keats.
01:02:19Go on now, miss.
01:02:21Oh.
01:02:30Thank you for visiting me.
01:02:39Pizza!
01:02:40Cross!
01:02:40Ah, yikes.
01:02:43Yes!
01:02:45It's...
01:02:50Give me a Right of the Parr in theeads and Highlands.
01:02:55Good.
01:02:56Now,...
01:03:13This is what's waiting for your air-conspence.
01:03:16What are they made of?
01:03:17Ach, what does it look like?
01:03:19Geez, if there would, I could catch fire.
01:03:26Oi, aye. Well done, Job.
01:03:28Country's proud of you.
01:03:30He'll show us up later.
01:03:31Geez, I've done finger.
01:03:33Preaching us for the wounded Job.
01:03:34Hip, hip, hooray!
01:03:36Hip, hip, hooray!
01:03:37Hip, hip, hooray!
01:03:39What, have any tea with that, are you asking?
01:03:41Oh, I need tea with it at all, like Reagan.
01:03:43Tin legs is men's work, mate.
01:03:44I'd have gone and strapped it to my nose.
01:03:47Jammy bastards.
01:03:48It'll not be long till it's your turn.
01:03:50You know what you'll do yet?
01:03:52Oh, you fancy it.
01:03:53I'm going to join up again, me.
01:03:57No, you should.
01:03:59They've been right nice to us since we got back.
01:04:01You should go and help, like, in that bloody fight.
01:04:05Take a good look.
01:04:09You'll never see anything like that again.
01:04:43I'm so grateful to you and to the night
01:04:50And the dark dark sky
01:04:55The beautiful sky blue and bright
01:05:01And the sky and the sky
01:05:12Oh, look, it's a little chunk of a better storm.
01:05:15So.
01:05:27See, wie der bunte Frühling schon
01:05:32aus Knospenblüten blickt,
01:05:35nicht alle Blüten sind mir gleich
01:05:40glücklich von dem Zweig,
01:05:45von welchem sie gepflückt,
01:05:48von welchem sie gepflückt.
01:05:54Denn alles ist wie damals noch
01:05:58die Blumen ausgeführt,
01:06:02die Sonne scheint nicht minder hell,
01:06:07nicht minder freundlich schwimmt im Quell.
01:06:13Das blaue Himmelsbild,
01:06:17das blaue Himmelsbild.
01:06:21Das blaue Himmelsbild.
01:06:27Das blaue Himmelsbild.
01:06:44They're coming.
01:06:51All right?
01:06:52Aye, miss.
01:07:01Is she on motor, Jimmy?
01:07:03Aye.
01:07:04They gave it me.
01:07:06Oh, wee, Jimmy.
01:07:08Thank you, boy.
01:07:12Look at you, looking so well.
01:07:14Aye, sure.
01:07:15Is he no looking well, mammy?
01:07:17Aye, he does.
01:07:20Hello, Ian.
01:07:21Hello, Jake.
01:07:22Grandfather.
01:07:23Right, Jake, my lad, let's have you out.
01:07:26Right, miss.
01:07:39Bet you can go real quick on these when you want, eh, Jamie?
01:07:42That's how you go.
01:07:43Where are you?
01:07:45Aye, sir.
01:07:53Okay.
01:07:58All right.
01:07:58If you want...
01:08:18Would you like to try one of our mother's soda scorns, Mrs. Napier?
01:08:21Thank you, no.
01:08:22You'll need to, miss.
01:08:24They're famous round here.
01:08:26She made them for your special.
01:08:29Oh, go on, Mrs. Napier.
01:08:31You child.
01:08:32I miss Rina.
01:08:33That's lovely.
01:08:49What are you looking at?
01:09:01So, where's my father?
01:09:02He's coming.
01:09:03In his dinner time, Jamie.
01:09:05He's coming then.
01:09:11How long do I have our patient for, Mrs. Napier?
01:09:14Until about four o'clock.
01:09:17Should be all right then, eh, Mummy?
01:09:19Aye.
01:09:20He'll come.
01:09:28Now, he shares, you see, with our wee Ian and our Sandy.
01:09:33Now, Sandy's still in France.
01:09:34God help him.
01:09:35So, it shouldn't be too bad to start off, eh?
01:09:44And we sleep in there, drawing room.
01:09:47The roof's all, like, you know, carved.
01:09:49And there's this light, this chandelier.
01:09:51Oh, fancy.
01:09:53I've no stop seeing these chandeliers since the thing happened.
01:09:56In Boulogne, the hospital was in a casino.
01:10:00There wasn't anything like the chandelier in there.
01:10:02Oh, he promised.
01:10:05Probably been held up.
01:10:07Probably working through some dinner times these days, eh?
01:10:10Promised.
01:10:18Uh, that's awesome.
01:10:22We were much better.
01:10:31We were just crying.
01:10:31Oh, so, ési.
01:10:37I'm not gonna stop.
01:10:37I'm not gonna stop.
01:10:38I'm not gonna stop.
01:10:39I'm not gonna stop.
01:10:39I don't stop.
01:10:39I don't stop.
01:10:40I don't stop.
01:10:40I don't stop.
01:10:41I don't stop.
01:10:59As shepherds watched their flock by night all seated on the ground, a high explosive
01:11:05shell came down and mutton reined around.
01:11:40I'm very, very fond of this desk.
01:11:46I love the way the light falls just now.
01:11:50My desk.
01:11:52I always thought it was a rather mouldy.
01:11:55Well, that's why it's so marvellous.
01:11:58You pretend to loathe perfection, yet you live by the clock and by the book.
01:12:02And look how dreary I am.
01:12:08Now I'm growing fond of everything here.
01:12:12Quite worries me.
01:12:15It seems wrong somehow to be so happy when it's still all going on.
01:12:24Almost don't want it to end.
01:12:27Isn't that terrible?
01:12:30But the thought of Bayswater, my little practice, our little pocket handkerchief garden, so on.
01:12:42There's always Sheila to look forward to.
01:12:48The largest one this week.
01:12:54Shall we remain friends, do you think?
01:12:57When Sheila returns.
01:13:00And Robert.
01:13:01Of course, why not?
01:13:03And everyone's behaved so well.
01:13:05We'll both come from Saturday to Monday.
01:13:08See this place as it was.
01:13:11You must see that.
01:13:15I've never been awfully good at friends.
01:13:20Family's been so nourishing.
01:13:22Like something sacred.
01:13:24Is that dangerous, do you think?
01:13:28Still.
01:13:31Is it Byron who puts it?
01:13:33Friendship is love without his wings.
01:13:42But you may have the desk.
01:13:56Why's it called a well, miss?
01:13:58Holy well.
01:14:00I don't honestly know.
01:14:03Maybe it's very deep.
01:14:05A king went bathing there.
01:14:08It's not bad enough.
01:14:15I wonder what he was going on.
01:14:16Is he, too?
01:14:22I think it's the Laven?
01:14:23Wait.
01:14:24Me there.
01:14:24All right.ña?
01:14:25Good.
01:14:27You were 16
01:14:28year old? Nice. Yeah?
01:14:31I know.
01:14:36How many
01:14:36want? You!" It's lost
01:14:45It's where you live. Is that like song?
01:14:49Little.
01:14:52Today must have been...
01:14:53Not a bit.
01:14:55Well,
01:14:57an experience.
01:15:00Foolish folk, eh?
01:15:01No.
01:15:03Nah, it's all right, miss.
01:15:05My father,
01:15:06he's a very foolish man.
01:15:09He can't read in the right, miss.
01:15:10What could he have said to you?
01:15:13He'd have felt right, foolish.
01:15:16Which he is,
01:15:18but not in his own house, you know.
01:15:20That's why he didn't come today.
01:15:22Perhaps.
01:15:27Or perhaps...
01:15:31It's only natural
01:15:32if the injury frightens him a little.
01:15:36It frightened me at first.
01:15:40Frightened of a blight, miss.
01:15:41I think every soldier dreams of, miss.
01:15:43Hmm.
01:15:54I think my folk thought we were friends.
01:15:59I'd like to think we are, wouldn't you?
01:16:07What your father did today,
01:16:11well, I could imagine my mother.
01:16:17That time you bought me flowers.
01:16:21That was very kind.
01:16:26You see, I know that I...
01:16:30I can sometimes put people off.
01:16:34You're doing...
01:16:35I'm sorry.
01:16:50I'm sorry.
01:16:52I hope I have.
01:16:55Show me every kindness, miss.
01:16:59Which is my duty?
01:17:04Act well.
01:17:05For old friends.
01:17:21What's it taste like?
01:17:24You're supposed to tell me what to do.
01:17:27Tell you what to do?
01:17:29Right, miss.
01:17:33Would you?
01:17:37Sorry, miss, would you?
01:17:39Miss.
01:17:42Right, come along.
01:17:44We're going back.
01:17:54Oh, Dale.
01:17:57Jake, what has happened to you?
01:17:58I've got nothing to do, miss.
01:17:59Do you think that gives you the right...
01:18:01Who do you think you're talking to?
01:18:03Talking to you, Alice.
01:18:05How dare you?
01:18:07It's not your people frightened of your injury, you know.
01:18:10It's you.
01:18:10I'm sorry, but you might have been asked to sacrifice far more for your God and your King.
01:18:14Far more.
01:18:15Hold it, hold it.
01:18:16I know my King.
01:18:17I know of him.
01:18:18I've no de-pleasure.
01:18:19Who sent me a Bakkyton one Christmas, so I know of him.
01:18:22Now, who's this other boy asking bits of me?
01:18:25Oh, Dad!
01:18:29Dad!
01:18:44I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:47I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:47I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:47I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:47I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:47I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:49I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:50I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:51I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but I know of him, but
01:18:52I know of him.
01:19:20God, this ain't for it.
01:19:23You say did not, did he?
01:19:27You're never doing that for yourself.
01:19:29And you, and you!
01:19:47Shall we be truly wicked this evening?
01:19:56I'm glad, ma'am.
01:20:04One teeny, boosty mumu.
01:20:14Friendship is love without his wings.
01:20:20Poor friendship.
01:20:23Some dreary old doctor has locked up your wings.
01:20:27Oops.
01:20:39Come on.
01:20:57Yes?
01:20:58Hello?
01:21:02Uh.
01:21:07Uh.
01:21:23You're a little girl.
01:21:24Bye.
01:21:24Bye.
01:21:24Bye.
01:21:26Bye.

01:21:50helped him from the water I drove back

01:22:14allowed a patient in your care to remove his clothes you should never have
01:22:18panicked you should never have put yourself in a situation where the patient

01:23:42So come on, Jiggy.
01:23:44Nothing to say.
01:23:45All right.
01:23:46I'll sod off, then.
01:23:48I feel good.
01:23:49Good.
01:23:50No, I don't.
01:23:51No?
01:23:53I don't know.
01:23:54I feel good.
01:23:56I feel bad.
01:23:58That's all right, then.
01:23:59A while ago you were telling me you had no feelings at all.
01:24:03My bastard and father, Abe.
01:24:05Christ the bastard.
01:24:08Yours too, eh?
01:24:11And he was always telling me he knew best, like the army.
01:24:14Ladies here.
01:24:16All know best.
01:24:19Bastards.
01:24:20All know best.
01:24:28As regards the report to Stocky Hall Street, it will not contain the word dismissal.
01:24:33What word will it contain?
01:24:35Illness.
01:24:36A splinter.
01:24:36An infection.
01:24:37But that's not true.
01:24:39For once it is not.
01:24:42No, you should write dismissal.
01:24:44That is what you're doing.
01:24:46Oh, my dear.
01:24:47I know nothing happened at the spring.
01:24:49Or nothing serious.
01:24:53Or nothing yet.
01:24:55But it's probably best to move on, wouldn't you say?
01:24:59Yes.
01:25:03Such an odd feeling to fail.
01:25:06All my life I've been so frightened of it.
01:25:08Oh, but it can set one free.
01:25:10You must be braver than me.
01:25:12You must embrace the changes life is offering.
01:25:15I go racketing about.
01:25:17I see women working the railways.
01:25:19Living the post.
01:25:20Rather wonderful.
01:25:22But where am I?
01:25:23It's not the world.
01:25:26The world.
01:25:27It's altering the weather now, they say, the shelling.
01:25:30France will vanish.
01:25:31German music's already gone.
