- Corporal.
- Sir.
1:35:05
- You're the picked piper.
- Sir.
1:35:08
Are you married, Corporal, or single?
1:35:11
Single, sir.
1:35:13
Colonel, we're short of time.
1:35:16
I like to have things out in the open.
1:35:19
Oh, for Pete's sake,
there's no secret now.
1:35:22
Seeing that we've come
to an interval, Colonel...
1:35:24
I wonder if this isn't too big a show
you're proposing?
1:35:27
- Objection?
- Well, it isn't as though Barrow
was with us a long while.
1:35:30
- He was a good man, all that
- It's whatever you think, Colonel.
1:35:33
It's right he should have
a proper burial, but
1:35:36
but the whole battalion, sir,
and the gun carriage
1:35:39
Maybe a more private ceremony
would suit better.
1:35:41
Surely the circumstances
of his death alone
1:35:43
The circumstances of his death?
What does that mean?
1:35:46
Well, sir, there's been
enough talk already.
1:35:48
Well, I know it was
one of unsound mind.
1:35:50
I mean, whichever way
you look at it, sir, it was suicide.
1:35:53
No, it damn well wasn't.
1:35:59
It was something else.
1:36:04
What was it, Jimmy?
1:36:08
Aye. Murder.
1:36:12
And I may be the murderer.
1:36:15
But you are the accomplices.
1:36:17
All of you.
1:36:19
ExceptJimmy here.
1:36:21
He served him better
than the rest of us put together.
1:36:23
Whatever it was, Colonel,
brigade will never permit this sort of a do.
1:36:27
To hell with brigade. The way we bury
our colonels is our business ours alone.
1:36:31
Colonel, Major Scott is right.
Brigade'll never stand for it.
1:36:34
Well, brigade won't know about it
till it's over.
1:36:39
Can you not see?
Can you not understand?
1:36:42
Fifteen years after he left Scotland,
he came back to it.
1:36:45
Fifteen years after he left
this battalion, he came back to it.
1:36:49
The battalion that's known
as the friendly one.
1:36:55
And you'd grudge him his burial.
1:36:58
We'll bury him the way
I say we'll bury him.
