:16:01
Not much doubt about morale here, eh?
:16:04
It's funny when the killing starts.
Some of them don't like it.

:16:08
That's where you come in. I want you
to set up an advanced area cricket pitch.

:16:12
Did you think you can do that?
Can you read a map?

:16:15
239451 or thereabouts, near an oasis.
:16:18
Get some grass if you can.
Doesn't matter if you can't.

:16:21
I want it first class,
and I want it in September.

:16:25
That means you have three days from
the time you land behind enemy lines.

:16:29
It's got to be a good pitch because
a very important bod is going to see it.

:16:34
- How much is she?
- Does she take bully beef?

:16:37
He's going to come up out
of the torment of the noblest of games

:16:41
and hear the sharp click
of leather on willow.

:16:43
Ah, with his weary soldier boys.
That'll show them, bring their tails up.

:16:48
Show this very important bod just how
high the British soldier can get his tail.

:16:59
Yes, I want it first class and in three days.
That doesn't give you much time.

:17:03
I want you to go all out.
Will you go all out for me?

:17:06
Just remember my standing orders.
Usual thing.

:17:08
Let no man surrender
if he is wounded and can fight.

:17:14
- Need I say more?
- No, sir.

:17:17
And thank you, sir, for your faith.
:17:21
I'll do what I can to tire her out, sir,
so these young soldiers don't get hurt.

:17:45
Hey, hey, hey. It's a dangerous job
and it's an important job.

:17:53
The next three days
are not going to be a picnic.

:17:55
I want you to come to me not only as
a troop leader - and it is a good troop -
