Adolf Hitler.
1:07:05
This is a great honor.
1:07:08
Yes, please. Right.
1:07:11
Here are the fuel consumption reports...
1:07:12
for K.G. V and Rodney, sir...
1:07:14
as close as I can calculate them.
1:07:17
Don't look too good, do they?
1:07:19
They're 140 miles astern of Bismarck.
1:07:21
Can they steam at full speed
long enough to overtake her?
1:07:24
They wouldn't have enough fuel
to get home.
1:07:29
Sir.
1:07:33
By daylight tomorrow, Bismarck will be...
1:07:35
in range of German air cover.
1:07:37
They'll send out the whole Luftwaffe.
1:07:39
And a line of U-boats.
1:07:41
We have to slow her down by tonight...
1:07:43
so Home Fleet can overtake her...
1:07:45
before she gets into friendly waters.
1:07:47
Renown and Sheffield can't do it.
1:07:49
That leaves Ark Royal.
1:07:53
10 hours of daylight left.
1:07:55
Call it 9 1/2.
1:07:57
There's time to get off
one air strike anyway.
1:07:59
With luck, they might get off two.
1:08:02
Yes, sir.
1:08:03
We'd better get in touch with Ark Royal.
1:08:12
Your torpedoes have been fitted
with new magnetic exploders...
1:08:16
so you should get good results.
1:08:18
You have Bismarck's position...
1:08:19
course, and speed.
1:08:21
She's now 2 4 miles away,
bearing 183 degrees.
1:08:24
She's all by herself,
so make your attack immediately.
1:08:27
Oh, there's just one final word.
1:08:29
The Home Fleet's 100 miles astern.
1:08:31
Unless you stop Bismarck today,
they'll never catch her.
1:08:34
It's up to you, gentlemen. Good day.
1:08:52
The Sheffield's been detached
from the flagship, sir.
1:08:54
She was ordered to close
Bismarck and shadow her.
1:08:57
How long ago?
1:08:59
1 1/2 hours.
