I could take it, Sir.
Any fit man could take it, Sir.

1:02:07
Yes, well. As you say if he was
sick he'd be here, wouldn't he?

1:02:14
God, it's hot! It's like an oven in here!
1:02:22
Lights out, five minutes!
1:02:24
Still no sign of the MO, eh?
- No.

1:02:31
He looks better.
- Yeah.

1:02:35
Maybe Harris'll get
the vet tomorrow.

1:02:38
It's a laugh.
- What is?

1:02:41
Well, all we ever get in this
dump is medicine and duties.

1:02:45
One lunatic, you know, in Tunifia,
that was a right nick, that was,

1:02:50
he made his blankets up into
a kind of a nest, you see,

1:02:53
and he sat there all
night in the middle of them,

1:02:55
going cuckoo, cuckoo all night long.
- He was trying to work his ticket.

1:02:59
No, he was round the bend. He'd been
frightened by an hand grenade, I think.

1:03:02
Anyway, the screw got
the vet in, you see

1:03:05
and you know what the vet recommended?
1:03:07
Medicine and duties.
1:03:10
Anyway, the vet had a bright
idea, you see. He sort of fancied himself

1:03:13
a bit of a trick cyclist,
1:03:14
and he put this dummy hand grenade
into the nest with the cuckoo.

1:03:19
And you know what the cuckoo done?
1:03:20
Aye, tried to hatch it out.
1:03:24
You've heard it.
1:03:27
Anyway, you've got to laugh, you know,
cos some of these screws are comics.

1:03:30
I mean, take Williams. There's
Stevens there, on his chin straps,

1:03:33
all Williams can think of doing is
giving him the old 'Attention!',

1:03:36
'About turn!', 'Double march!'
1:03:41
Blimey, he's off.
1:03:43
About turn!
1:03:44
I wonder if he could hatch out a packet
of Players for one of my butt ends, eh?

1:03:47
Here, Stevens, that's it,
you stick at it, kidder!

1:03:49
You're a cert for
your ticket, you are.

1:03:51
Left turn!
1:03:55
Keep 'em up, boy, keep 'em up!
1:03:57
About turn!
