00:02.
00:02.
00:02.
00:05.
00:06.
00:09.
01:01There we are.
01:05You all right, love?
01:07Yes, Mrs Harvey. I'm all right, thank you.
01:09Oh, you're a poor thing.
01:12I don't feel like a poor thing.
01:14You do, you know.
01:27Well, I'm glad you've got plenty to sing about.
01:31Oh, sorry.
01:33Still in mourning for your wretched license, are we?
01:35Yeah. I've got to get my hands on the border trade bastard that took it away.
01:38Somebody will be a moaning.
01:40Oh, you'll get it back.
01:41It's only a matter of time.
01:42Unless, of course, they find out that you're still flying.
01:44Yeah, meanwhile, I'll have to pay for another pilot.
01:47Who flies like he's driving a three-ton truck.
01:49You hired Starmer.
01:51Yeah, he was cheap.
01:53I couldn't afford to be choosy.
01:55Full flap.
01:57Travelling.
02:00Six.
02:03I hope you don't get too used to that.
02:05Huh?
02:05Sitting in my seat.
02:07I don't want you disappointed when I take it back.
02:10No, sir.
02:12No, sir.
02:37Oh, that radio's bloody noisy still.
02:41Thought Albie had fixed it.
02:43Huh?
02:43And you said it'd fix it.
02:45Well, that's just a noisy.
02:48Hey, what time are they coming to pick this load up?
02:50Ah, no hurry this afternoon.
02:51Uh-huh.
02:53Good trip.
02:55Yeah, passenger's fairly well behaved.
03:04Oh!
03:06Jen phoned a couple of times this morning.
03:09Wanted to know when you got back.
03:11Come on.
03:14Well, I'm not having it, Jen.
03:17I'm not having you stuck in this room day after day,
03:20white as a sheet,
03:22with no proper food.
03:23Get all me rations.
03:24No fresh air.
03:26Sit out.
03:26Oh, with the damp washing, I know.
03:29What's all this about no clinic?
03:31Oh, don't make a fuss, Mum.
03:33Having a baby's a natural thing.
03:35I'd rather have it in a field than in one of them places.
03:38That's what you say now.
03:39I can't go back.
03:40I can't go crawling back to Dad, making him think he's won.
03:44It's not a battle, Jen.
03:46Oh, Jack likes to think it is.
03:49He should be decorating the baby's room at a time like this
03:52and making sure you had a wedding ring on your hand.
03:55Mum, you don't understand.
03:57It's me won't marry him.
04:08Mum, I've neither of you a scrap of feeling
04:11for that poor little night you're carrying.
04:18Come on.
04:20Let's get moving.
04:27Come on.
04:31You wouldn't have been the pilot, of course,
04:33because you don't have a license.
04:36Now, that would be too risky, even for you.
04:38The water tray carved me up.
04:39I do as I'm told.
04:40I want my license back.
04:42I survey aircraft.
04:44I've nothing to do with airmen.
04:45And you're a book passer like the rest of them.
04:48You're friends in the ministry, haven't you?
04:51I'm a better pilot amongst their licensing.
04:54How about it?
04:55There's nothing I can do, Jack.
04:56When they hand out medals for red tape merchants,
04:59you'll be right up front.
05:01You knew they'd it in for me.
05:02Now, that's not fair.
05:03Oh, yeah?
05:06Well, you could try Donald Woolcott, I suppose.
05:09He's almost your local MP.
05:10What?
05:11The hangar and flogger?
05:12I thought you'd approve.
05:12Don't be stupid.
05:14Made a speech in the Commons
05:15supporting you bandits against the nationalized airlines.
05:18What?
05:20Well,
05:21said the nationalized flag carriers were Leviathan the whale.
05:26Give me minnows every time, he said.
05:29Private enterprise.
05:30Small, fast and flexible.
05:32Didn't you read it?
05:33I'm too busy flying to read the newspapers.
05:35Donald Woolcott.
05:37Jack,
05:39if you do see him,
05:41play it straight.
05:46Is that your new pilot?
05:48Yeah, you'll like him.
05:50Just your short flight, Lieutenant Starmer.
05:53Clean license,
05:54never been grounded.
06:05You're a bit bloody fast, aren't you, Robin?
06:07Better than too slow.
06:08I am.
06:13Never mind every time.
06:22Bye.
06:23Bye.
06:28Bye.
06:30Bye.
06:31Bye.
06:32Bye.
06:36Bye.
06:55Hey!
06:58Hey!
07:31you're fired. I'm sorry Jack. monkeys fly better than that.
07:36nobody pranks my plane. go on piss off. anyone can make a mistake. no we carry
07:41what's in they can't. it can be mended Jack. what you waiting for? your money? I'll post it.
07:47I don't know what to say Jack. well don't say anything just bugger off and the
07:59sods take my license. Jack you can't afford it. what? you can't afford to fire him.
08:13Robin! come on I didn't mean it.
08:38she left didn't she? because our mother came and got her. how that poor woman's going to face the neighbors
08:46I don't know.
08:49nice person I thought. will you all be staying Mr Ruskin? I can't lower the rent because there's only one
08:56on you any more than I raised it because there was two.
08:59well that's all right thank you Mrs Harvey. aren't you going after her then?
09:05don't understand you Jen. one breath you say you love him the next you say you've been miserable
09:11married to him. if you're with Jack Ruskin you've got to look after yourself and I don't think I'm strong
09:18enough. that's just the baby making you talk like that. he wants me now because I won't have him that's
09:25all. when he gets what he wants he moves on to something else. that's his nature. if he loves you
09:32he'll always want you. come on. it's raining. nil visibility. you know once a rainy day was just wet.
09:51now I think. is he flying? is he safe?
10:20Mark? yeah?
10:23How's she doing?
10:24Well, I don't understand it.
10:26What's the matter?
10:27Nothing's the matter.
10:28That's what's the matter.
10:29Ah, it's still a rudder, though.
10:31She'll have to be grounded for that.
10:33Yeah, well, it has to be done.
10:34Aye.
10:35I can't have her sitting around for a week.
10:37Not now.
10:37There's another set of wages to find.
10:39Well, business is slack.
10:41She might be on her ground, anyway.
10:42Oh, no, she won't.
10:43She's going to have all the freight in her
10:45while Vera's full of passengers.
10:46What?
10:47Well, I swear the money is.
10:48Bays her bloody side better than freight.
10:50Look, freight doesn't want feeding,
10:52doesn't want car put on the floor,
10:54doesn't argue, doesn't get sick.
10:56That's what I like about you, Mac, your optimism.
10:59Well, it's a load of trouble.
11:01It's a load of money.
11:02Well, where are you going to find these passengers?
11:08Well, I'm going to do what the big boys do.
11:12BOAC, VEA.
11:13I'm going to start the shirts, shoot the cuffs,
11:17and advertise.
11:20Safe, quick, cheap transport,
11:22passengers a speciality.
11:25I'm glad you finally took up my idea.
11:27Well, I reckon we can do a bit better
11:28than just flying a few businessmen to Bonn.
11:31You ain't got to start somewhere.
11:32I want to start by getting my license back.
11:34Well, that's easier said, you know.
11:36Peter.
11:37I want to borrow some money.
11:39How much?
11:40Oh, come on, you get it back.
11:41First passenger trip.
11:43I need you to go to London.
11:45When?
11:46Now.
11:47Come on, banks will be closed in half hour.
11:50That much?
11:51Oh, well, I suppose it's all right.
11:53Hey, how's Jen?
11:56Hmm, I haven't seen her.
11:57She's gone back to her mother's.
11:58I can't say that surprises me.
12:00What do you mean with that?
12:01Mrs. Harvey's.
12:02It's a bloody dump, Jack.
12:04Yeah, well, that's my business.
12:05Come on, they'll be closed.
12:13You mean, he went to Mrs. Harvey's,
12:16found I'd left,
12:17and went straight back to the airfield.
12:19Didn't he even come after me?
12:20Well, I think he had a bit of a sleep first.
12:23Oh.
12:24Well, you see, something came up.
12:27Always does.
12:29Well, was rather important.
12:31Always is.
12:34Jen.
12:37He's gone to London
12:39to try and get his licence back.
12:42Oh, Peter.
12:44Do you think he will?
12:46Well, he had that look on his face.
12:48Oh, don't tell me.
12:52That's all the way I see it.
12:53Ruskin the raft nailed you for being in that airspace.
12:56Ah, and that's about the size of it.
12:58Ridiculous to keep a good pilot out of the air for the technicality.
13:01You have to fight the bureaucrats, Ruskin.
13:03They're everywhere, all of a sudden.
13:04You've actually gone to people's heads.
13:06They think they need permission to do anything,
13:08even raise food to their lips.
13:11Act first, ask afterwards.
13:13That's how we won the war.
13:16Peter, you had to upset the raft.
13:19But being in that airspace
13:20doesn't seem the sort of offence
13:21that merits your being grounded.
13:24And you're a man after me own heart.
13:26The minnow facing up to the Leviathan.
13:29Did you read my speech?
13:31Oh, I admired it very much.
13:34Kellett speaks well of you.
13:36Good man, Kellett.
13:38Well, I'll see what I can do, Ruskin.
13:39No one likes questions in the house.
13:41They mean work.
13:42That's the one.
13:43The only power the Commons has post-war
13:45to threaten the civil subject could work.
13:47Yes, well, I'm very grateful.
13:49Oh, it's not done yet.
13:50I said I'd do what I could.
13:52Perhaps I could make a donation.
13:56Put that away.
13:57Oh, for the Rath Benevolent Fund.
14:00Put that away at once!
14:11Mrs. Taylor?
14:16Move up, Sonny.
14:19It's true.
14:20I don't know.
14:26I don't know.
14:39Let's go home, Mum.
14:41No, shh.
14:42There's nothing wrong with me.
14:44You haven't even registered.
14:46You have to get your extra rations
14:48and your free milk.
14:49You have to book in at the hospital.
14:52I'm having the baby at home.
14:53That's for the doctor to decide.
14:57And you get an RB2 for the baby.
14:59How can a baby that's not even born
15:01have a Russian book?
15:02Oh, I think it's wonderful
15:04what they're doing.
15:06Cod liver oil, orange juice,
15:08everything for free.
15:10You're a very special person
15:12once you're pregnant now, Jen.
15:14Wasn't like that in my day.
15:17When I was carrying you,
15:18I only went out after dark.
15:21Why?
15:23You didn't want anyone to see you, did you?
15:25They'd know what you've been doing.
15:27Oh, true.
15:35Mrs Shaw.
15:36Does she mean me, Mum?
15:39And it's Miss Shaw.
15:50Any change of address?
15:54You're not reporting our gem?
15:56I'm not reporting.
15:57I'm letting the moral welfare officer know.
16:00It's her business to help unmarried mothers
16:02and safeguard the babies.
16:04Illegitimacy's been a real problem,
16:06hasn't it, since the war?
16:07So the officer will make proper arrangements
16:09for the confinement and postnatal care.
16:12We can do that.
16:14But you haven't, have you?
16:16Your daughter hasn't even been to the clinic
16:17and she's eight months.
16:19She hasn't claimed her RB2
16:21and the baby hasn't even got
16:22a national registration number.
16:24Poor little mite.
16:26Number before it's even born.
16:28She may want to issue an affiliation
16:30order against the father
16:31if she knows who it is.
16:33Or she may want to have the baby adopted.
16:35It's often best.
16:37Adopted?
16:48Any bleeding?
16:50No.
16:52You sure?
16:54Yes, of course I'm sure.
16:58Why did you leave it so long?
17:00I'm young, healthy and normal
17:02and I don't make a fuss.
17:05I wouldn't be here now
17:05if it wasn't for mum.
17:07All the free milk and stuff.
17:08It's not free,
17:09it's tuppence a pint.
17:10And you put me off
17:11last time I was here,
17:12if you must know.
17:14Yes, I do remember you.
17:16You were very nervous.
17:18All right,
17:18I'll give you a certificate
17:19to bring your milk ration
17:20up to 14 pints a week.
17:22I can do that
17:23if there's some specified abnormality
17:26which means you have to stay in bed.
17:27Stay in bed.
17:28I feel all right.
17:29Do I smoke?
17:30No, it's not good for you.
17:32On the contrary,
17:32smoking has a mild antiseptic effect.
17:34It never harmed anyone.
17:36Well, I don't like the smell.
17:38I see,
17:39you are a difficult lass.
17:51Can I get up now?
17:52As you like.
17:58You are sure it's your first babe?
18:01Yes, of course I'm sure.
18:03You'd be amazed
18:04what some girls manage to forget,
18:06especially if they're not married.
18:10I don't see that not being married
18:11has anything to do
18:12with my medical condition.
18:13Oh, don't you?
18:14Worry and stress, you know,
18:16never helped anyone.
18:19Doctor, if there's anything wrong with me,
18:21please say so.
18:22Otherwise,
18:23just give me my certificate
18:24and I'll get down to the food office.
18:26Miss Shaw,
18:27the specified abnormality
18:28is a condition known as placenta previa.
18:31It's very rare in first babies,
18:32but it's not unheard of.
18:34It means the afterbirth
18:35is attached at the entrance of the womb
18:37and the baby cannot be delivered
18:39without medical intervention.
18:41Yes, but I feel perfectly all right.
18:43It means that bed rest now
18:44is essential.
18:45There's a real danger of prematurity
18:46and the baby must be delivered
18:48by caesarean section.
18:53You can see.
18:57And I'm not finished yet.
19:20Yeah, well, let's hope
19:21it impresses the client.
19:23Jen's still asleep.
19:24Oh, is she?
19:26Right, well, I won't just do it with him.
19:28I must say,
19:29she looks a lot cheerier these days.
19:32Must be your cooking.
19:34Aye.
19:35Anything wrong, though?
19:37No, not wrong,
19:38but she's not very happy
19:40with that doctor.
19:41Oh, well.
19:42Maybe that's it.
19:44It's a pity there's no one else.
19:46Well, if she wants another doctor,
19:48she can have one.
19:49We'll go private.
19:51Oh, I think Jen would be happier.
19:54Right, well, I'll talk to her
19:55about it when I get back.
19:56Jen up.
19:57Good luck, Jack.
20:00Nobody I know goes private.
20:03Nobody you know can afford to.
20:27I saw your advertisement,
20:29Mr. Ruskin.
20:32Join the new age, it says.
20:34Well, I'd like to,
20:36but frankly,
20:36it's a very expensive new age.
20:39My girls are not church mice,
20:41I'm sure we can come
20:42to some arrangement,
20:43Lady Comfrey.
20:44We may only be minnows
20:45to BEA's whale,
20:46but we're fast,
20:47fair, and flexible.
20:48Oh, how nicely you put it,
20:50Mr. Ruskin.
20:51If only minnows weren't so easily swallowed up.
20:55I've always loved to fly.
20:58Since June 1936,
20:59when I went up with Alan Cobham's Flying Circus,
21:02it's been my positive passion.
21:04I knew every single one of the aircraft in the wall,
21:08Mr. Ruskin,
21:08those and ours.
21:09I worked on an ACAC battery
21:11after my husband died,
21:12shooting them down.
21:14Oh, theirs, not ours.
21:17Mostly.
21:20How many girls,
21:21Lady Comfrey,
21:22and where exactly are we going?
21:23Ah,
21:23a party of 20.
21:25We're going on a short visit to Switzerland.
21:28Well,
21:29it's the proper culmination
21:30for a young lady's time
21:31at a finishing school.
21:33Finishing school?
21:34Mr. Ruskin,
21:36we have had
21:37eight years
21:37of total barbarism.
21:39The young ladies of Great Britain
21:41need their manners polished,
21:43their French improved.
21:45They need to experience
21:46a little continental flair.
21:49Switzerland, at least,
21:50is as it was before the war.
21:51Whereabouts in Switzerland,
21:53Lady Comfrey?
21:53It is quite a large place.
21:56You're not the kind
21:57I thought you would be,
21:58Mr. Ruskin,
21:59to be frank.
22:01But then this is the age
22:02of the common man.
22:04Where in Switzerland?
22:06Well,
22:07as near the Matterhorn
22:08as we can get,
22:09of course.
22:11Airmen used to be heroes,
22:12now they are businessmen.
22:15But you might be a hero,
22:17Mr. Ruskin.
22:18You can provide
22:19two qualified and licensed pilots,
22:21a radio operator,
22:22a properly maintained
22:23and inspected aircraft.
22:24Of course.
22:25I would like to employ you,
22:27Mr. Ruskin.
22:28However,
22:29there is just the question
22:31of the price.
22:34Well,
22:35I think,
22:37I think we could do it
22:38for 450 pounds.
22:40Oh!
22:40And so I'm sure
22:42could be EA,
22:43probably for less.
22:45300 will be more attractive.
22:48three hundred and seventy-five.
22:50With meals and refreshments,
22:52of course.
22:52Of course.
22:53What about the return trip?
22:56Shall we wait and see?
23:03Oh!
23:03Oh, come on!
23:05Don't sod about!
23:07I want those seats in Vera today!
23:08Spoilsport!
23:21Hello, Jack!
23:22How do you?
23:23How's you done?
23:24Well.
23:25Right.
23:28There!
23:32Bloody hell!
23:33That's a carpet,
23:34not rags!
23:35Well,
23:35I said second-hand fire damaged.
23:38I'm not sure when it's down.
23:40That won't lie down,
23:41walk away more like.
23:42What fleet bit was it anyway?
23:44It came from the rocks,
23:45eh?
23:46Roxy.
23:48I'm not giving you a fiver
23:50for that.
23:51Two pounds ten,
23:52and if any of my passengers
23:54get bitten,
23:54you'll hear about it.
23:56Right, Jack.
24:00Here we are.
24:03Mm-hmm.
24:07Ma'am.
24:09Uh-huh.
24:11That's, um,
24:13that's fine.
24:14So everything's all right?
24:15Of course.
24:16Why shouldn't it be?
24:17You're young and healthy
24:18and intelligent
24:19and just about to have
24:21a beautiful day.
24:22When?
24:24Uh,
24:25oh, about two weeks,
24:25I'd say.
24:26The head's nicely engaged.
24:27And I don't have to have
24:28a cesarean?
24:30Well, of course not.
24:31Why should you?
24:32And I can have the baby at home?
24:34Ah.
24:35Um,
24:36veteran hospital.
24:37Your first child.
24:38But I don't want to have
24:39the baby in the hospital.
24:40Yes, well,
24:41my advice is that you do so.
24:44Doctor,
24:44look,
24:45can we agree now?
24:46I want to have the baby at home.
24:49I'd feel much happier.
24:52Oh,
24:53very well.
24:57My midwife will attend to you.
24:59She's a lovely lady.
25:01Very practical.
25:02You call her first
25:04and then she,
25:04she calls me.
25:06I always attend all my births.
25:08I look forward to them.
25:09It's a wonderful moment
25:10when a new human being
25:12begins its life.
25:13After all,
25:13I,
25:14I wouldn't miss it for the world.
25:17Uh, Gwyneth,
25:18would you ask Mrs. Conrad
25:19to come and meet you for sure?
25:21Love children in particular
25:22are a,
25:23a delight to deliver.
25:24They,
25:24they grow up to have better looks,
25:26better,
25:27oh, allow me.
25:28Thank you, Doctor.
25:29They have better minds
25:29and more energy
25:30than conventionally born children.
25:32I don't know why
25:32that should be so,
25:33but it is.
25:34It's as though,
25:35um,
25:36it's as though
25:36a fairy godmother
25:37attended the birth
25:38as well as a very wife.
25:41Ah,
25:41Mrs. Conrad,
25:42Miss Shaw.
25:43Hello, hello.
25:44My,
25:44my receptionist
25:45will take the fee
25:45on the way out.
26:18How can we help you?
26:20Yes, sir.
26:21I want to buy a uniform.
26:24I see.
26:25Well, I'm afraid
26:26we only make up
26:27officer's uniform.
26:28I want officer's uniform.
26:29Oh, of course.
26:30Sorry.
26:31What service?
26:32Navy.
26:34Oh, we don't get
26:34a lot of call,
26:35but, um,
26:36do you have
26:37any particular
26:37ranking man?
26:39No,
26:39as long as he looks good.
26:40You know,
26:40plenty of ribbon,
26:41lots of braid,
26:41that sort of thing.
26:42How much are they then?
26:43Well,
26:43it depends on the material,
26:45of course,
26:45and how you want it,
26:46precisely.
26:48Well, off the peg,
26:49I don't want to wait.
26:50I wish this sort of thing,
26:51and chicken cheerful.
26:52How much is that?
26:53Well, we start in the region
26:54of eight pounds.
26:56You must be joking.
26:57I'm sorry, sir.
26:58It's not our habit
26:58to approach the sale
26:59of uniforms
26:59after the fashion
27:00of a market stall,
27:01and we do not
27:02serve the peg.
27:06What's this, then?
27:07Uh,
27:07it was never collected.
27:09Oh, well,
27:10it's not much good
27:10to you, then,
27:11is it?
27:12Tell you what,
27:12three quid.
27:13Well, I'm not really
27:14sure that I can...
27:15Take it or leave it.
27:16You're not expecting
27:16another war, are you?
27:17Well, I don't think
27:18that's relevant,
27:19if I may say so.
27:19You doing alterations?
27:21I don't think I can...
27:22Done?
27:23Ah, three pounds.
27:25Uh,
27:26you do know
27:27that it's an offence
27:28to impersonate an officer.
27:30Don't worry,
27:30I wouldn't be caught
27:31dead impersonating
27:32a bloody officer.
27:33Some face squadron
27:34needed to do that
27:35for me.
27:49Matt!
27:51Angels want five.
28:01Do sit down.
28:03Sit down.
28:04I know it's exciting,
28:05but you must keep
28:06in your place.
28:07That is a Dakota.
28:10More correctly known
28:11as a Douglas DC3.
28:14Fairly exciting, isn't it?
28:16Oh, goodness!
28:19Mum?
28:21Mum?
28:22Yes, Mum?
28:24Quickly!
28:37Jen, you shouldn't be
28:38bleeding like that.
28:40Frank,
28:41call the midwife.
28:43Jen started.
28:46Well, this must be a record.
28:47Hmm?
28:48Doing the flight plan
28:49before,
28:49not after.
28:51Hmm.
28:59V.I.P.s!
29:04All right.
29:06Ha, ha, ha, ha!
29:07Phew!
29:07Splendid, Admiral!
29:09Do you think it fits?
29:10Oh, it's very dashing.
29:12Should keep their,
29:12uh, minds off the carpet.
29:15Oh, Australian Air Force.
29:19Oh, my God!
29:21Come on!
29:24Don't run on like that!
29:26Have you got your hand baggage?
29:28Don't make so much racket.
29:30Shush!
29:32Come along!
29:33This way!
29:40Oh, Mr. Shaw,
29:44you'll want to speak to Jack.
29:45Hang on.
29:45Jack!
29:46It's Mr. Shaw,
29:47for you!
29:50Look,
29:51tell him I call back.
29:52Oh, for God's sake,
29:52it'll be about Jen.
29:54Well,
29:55you'll have to do the spiel.
29:57You've got a nice,
29:57smart uniform,
29:58are you?
29:58No,
29:58but you've got clutch,
29:59you're managing your flying jacket.
30:01Oh, thanks.
30:01Very good.
30:05Hello, Dad.
30:07She's started.
30:09Well,
30:09that's wonderful.
30:10How is she?
30:11She'll be all right.
30:13They make great dramas
30:14out of this sort of thing.
30:16Now, look,
30:16I'm off to Switzerland.
30:17I'll phone you as soon as I get back.
30:19She'll be tomorrow.
30:20These carry-ons are no place for a man.
30:22I feel like a pee on a drum.
30:23So long, lad.
30:24Goodbye.
30:27Who called it the Vera Lynn?
30:29Captain Ruskin.
30:31Good idea?
30:32I'd quite like one called after me.
30:33We might even do that.
30:35My name's Jane.
30:36Don't say what an Icelandic is so ordinary.
30:39I'm thinking of changing it.
30:41You must have been in the Air Force,
30:42Mr. Whitney.
30:43Afraid so.
30:44An officer?
30:45Mm-hmm.
30:46Squadron leader.
30:47Oh.
30:48Come along.
30:49This way.
31:04Sorry I'm late, Lady Cumprey.
31:06Busy on the phone.
31:08You're due with six planes these days or two.
31:10Then you'd better acquire them, Captain Ruskin.
31:13I must say,
31:14it is a smaller outfit than I had thought.
31:17Yes, well, as I told you, Lady Cumprey,
31:19fast, flexible, and cheap.
31:21Well, the girls can get on as soon as they like.
31:23I want to make Switzerland in daylight.
31:24Yes, I expect you do.
31:26Now, come along, girls.
31:28Get aboard.
31:29Come on.
31:30Come on, now, this fool.
31:41Some of them look much older than she said.
31:44Dangerous thought, that, Jack.
31:45Mm-hmm.
31:48So, how's Jen?
31:50She started.
31:54Well, I could always take the left-hand seat with Robin.
31:57I wouldn't trust him with a bloody tilly lamp,
31:59never mind this lot.
32:01Jen will be fine.
32:03She always is.
32:05No, we need the duff sol as a navigator,
32:08because the ladyship expects it.
32:09He couldn't navigate from here to the runway.
32:13Oh, here comes the catering manager.
32:15I don't know why I joined this outfit.
32:17Well, she know a good job when you see one.
32:20I wouldn't mind what I saw getting on there.
32:22That's why we're leaving you behind.
32:25Thanks.
32:26What will your missus say?
32:29Listen, don't forget the barley sugar.
32:35Little chap's taking his time, that's all.
32:37I have a feeling it'll be a boy.
32:39But, uh, you, uh, you think everything's all right?
32:43Oh, perfectly.
32:44There really was no need for Mrs. Connor
32:46to call me off the golf course.
32:48She's quite able to do it on her own.
32:50Will fuss.
32:51Still, that's not a bad thing in a midwife.
32:54And I was winning.
32:56Aren't you to stay with, Jen?
32:58Uh, no.
32:59No, I'll, um, I'll drop back in an hour or so
33:01to see the bouncing baby.
33:03I have other calls.
33:04I don't really feel very happy about her.
33:07Oh, uh, of course, of course.
33:09But when your daughter presents you
33:11with a fine, healthy child,
33:13at the natural course, Mrs. Shaw,
33:15that's the way.
33:16Baby knows it.
33:17So should we.
33:52Captain Ruskin.
33:54Is the squadron leader flying the plane now?
33:57Ah, well, I'm checking back here.
33:59But you're the captain.
34:01Yes, I'm the captain.
34:03Captain Ruskin.
34:04Is that non-clover?
34:06Okay.
34:08Sit down, girl.
34:09Sit down.
34:11Yes, it is.
34:12Jog of it must have been your strong point.
34:22Hey, Robin.
34:24Where are we?
34:25There.
34:27What's that now ride, don't Kirk?
34:29Uh, I should think so.
34:31Yeah, well, your laps have been out, didn't it?
34:32I should have got one of the girls to do the job.
34:34Sorry?
34:36You should have had Dunkirk on the left.
34:38Oh.
34:39Sorry.
34:46Storm's all the way down France, Jack.
34:48Well, shouldn't be a problem.
34:50Take it easy, then.
34:52Remember, we can fasten this.
35:08Does it always take as long as this?
35:10Well, ours never did.
35:12But you won't remember.
35:15I don't trust that, Doctor.
35:17She should have gone on the panel.
36:06Robin, you are keeping the flight, log?
36:08Well, yes.
36:10Where was our last fix?
36:13Soison.
36:15Soison.
36:15Time?
36:16Thirteen-thirty-eight.
36:19Thirteen-thirty-eight.
36:22Thanks, ma'am.
36:41I'm not waiting any longer.
36:43She's bleeding too much.
36:44Shall I call Dr Lydia?
36:45No, call an ambulance.
36:46All right, Jim.
36:47Now.
36:48Ah!
37:16It's getting a bit bumpy.
37:17There's nothing to worry about.
37:19They've been helping us, but what about the passengers?
37:21Well, someone ought to go out and reassure them.
37:23I nominate the captain.
37:27Thanks.
37:32Are you going to give out the sandwiches?
37:33What?
37:34Are you going to give out the sandwiches?
37:41What's all this?
37:43There's nothing to get upset about.
37:45Will you be all right, Mr. Roskin?
37:46It's nothing you get used to here, too.
37:48Do up your belts.
37:49You'll feel much more comfortable.
37:53Captain Roskin?
37:54I can't remember how to do it.
37:56Well, it's easy.
37:58You do like this.
38:01Mr. Roskin.
38:03Mr. Roskin.
38:04Mr. Roskin.
38:06Might I suggest a little more height?
38:08What was that?
38:09We ought to be flying above the turbulence.
38:12Eh?
38:13I do think a little more height would help us in the storm.
38:17There's no need to go higher, Lady Comfrey.
38:20It wouldn't help.
38:21Sit down.
38:21Do your belt.
38:23Oh, of course.
38:25You are the pilot.
38:31What's up, mate?
38:33Ah, so much for your bloody aerial.
38:34What's wrong with it?
38:35It's U.S.
38:37There's an understatement.
38:39Last bacon.
38:41Dijon.
38:41Time?
38:42Er, 1409.
38:44Right.
38:44I want a dead reckoning fixed.
38:45Flight looks okay.
38:46Okay.
38:46It gives us a safe cruising height.
38:49Peter, we'll hold 9,000 at present.
38:53Just get us back on the air, Mac.
38:56It's quicker than doing myself.
39:08the night.
39:25Well, the weather's calmed down a bit.
39:27Teen sandwich time, right?
39:28Oh, come on.
39:29See if he can do something right.
39:31Oh, come on, Jack.
39:38and someone better give him a hand come on don't must in it's no good looking at me
39:44i'm flying oh no you're not all right come on robin let's get it over with
40:01are we out of the storm now mr whitney uh yes more or less you flew us through it
40:08well i thought mr ruskin was the captain uh he is uh i'm the well i'm the co-pilot mr
40:16whitney
40:17mr whitney don't you think more height would be a great help even now
40:22more height i'm sure it would be i think i'll go forward and mention it to mr ruskin again
40:38mr ruskin mr ruskin might i suggest a little more height
40:44i don't think a little bit more height would be of a great assistance to me
40:52so
41:19is there any news no I'm sorry we're doing what we can
41:24but I must warn you she's having a very hard time
41:39glad you enjoyed it. have a nice time. thank you captain Ruskin. will you sign it for me please? sure
41:58thank you
42:05goodbye. thank you Mr Ruskin. we all enjoyed the flight so much despite his ups and downs. I do think
42:14my advice about height was worthy of consideration and the catering does leave a certain amount to be desired. nevertheless
42:22very successful.
42:23and what about the return flight? ah I've decided to take the girls back via Paris. they'll see so much
42:34more of Europe by train. goodbye Mr Ruskin.
42:59get the drip
43:13bloody impossible
43:158 hour delay call to England. what do you expect? bloody foreigner. I don't even know if it's a girl
43:22or a boy.
43:24but what about our Jen? will she be off? well she'll be very weak at first of course. but she'll
43:29be fine. there's nothing to worry about.
43:31I'm sorry we lost the baby. it really was too late. it's all my fault. she should have come straight
43:37to hospital.
43:38well even then there's no guarantee we could have saved the child. the afterbirth was in the baby's way and
43:45there were other complications.
43:48shouldn't he have known that Dr Lydiot? takes a good doctor to diagnose a placenta previa.
43:54but he's supposed to be the best. he's certainly very successful. i'm sorry Mr Sean if you'll excuse me.
44:08oh any luck Jack?
44:12refuelling complete? yes all done.
44:14come on then. let's see Switzerland. have you been somewhere to sleep Jack?
44:18we're not staying. you'll have to forget your cuckoo clocks.
44:22we're flying straight back. empty.
44:24well I don't want to walk back. I was going to find out where those girls will stay.
44:28well I'm doing you a favour then aren't I?
44:31now.
45:00so
45:26I'll see Jack.
45:28he'll be here as soon as he can love.
45:31of course he will.
45:35hasn't he even phoned?
45:38yes.
45:41he sent his love.
45:57he is the king of the king.
45:57of the king of the king for the king,
46:27voglia is the king to help him.
46:27Hey, give my love to Jen.
46:29Will you wait your turn? You can come round with a champagne later.
46:32I wouldn't want you, Perth.
46:33Ah!
46:55Erm...
46:56Half a dozen then.
46:57No trousers.
46:58Half a dozen.
47:06Hello.
47:17Come on, open up.
47:21Oh, hello, Mrs. Simms.
47:23Gone deaf have they been celebrating?
47:25No good knocking, Jack.
47:26What?
47:27At the hospital.
47:29She's been there since yesterday, your Jen.
47:33You can help me, this is something, Jack.
47:40No good knocking on door.
47:49I love you, Mrs. Simms.
47:50I tried Jack, but it was too late for the baby.
47:58Where is she?
48:00Up the stairs, aboard three.
48:24Hello, love. How are you?
48:26Fine.
48:28Jack?
48:29Oh, no.
48:32How was the trip?
48:34Oh, all right.
48:36Gotta eat quick as a good.
48:37I know.
48:39Turn straight round.
48:41Peter's knackered.
48:43Passengers were satisfied then, were they?
48:49Should have been here, love.
48:50It's all right, Jack.
48:52No, I should never have gone away.
49:03Do you think what happened was a punishment?
49:12I'll pick myself up.
49:14Start again.
49:15Me?
49:17Well, then.
49:19Can we have another one?
49:21I'll do it better next time.
49:25Well, you have to be married first.
49:29All right.
49:32Fine.
49:32Fine.
49:40Oh, Jim.
49:43Jim.
49:49Jim.
49:50Oh, Jim.
50:08I don't know.
