1:25:00
I think my lads are very fond of me.
1:25:03
Sir! Permission to fall out, sir?
1:25:07
We've been playing cricket
in the hot sun for three hours.

1:25:10
We can't enjoy ourselves infinitum,
or at least bowl underarm.

1:25:14
Play on is my advice to you unless
you want to look at me in a court martial.

1:25:18
- Enjoy yourselves. It will be a long war.
- Play on!

1:25:22
You may not fall out until a very important
bod sees you entertained and happy.

1:25:26
Tails up, I haven't brought you
all this way to bowl underarm.

1:25:30
- It's just as hard for me as it is for you.
- You're a bastard.

1:25:34
I hope so, I hope I am a bastard.
1:25:37
- I'm not proud of it.
- Sit down, son.

1:25:40
I've looked after their feet
as if they were my own, sir.

1:25:44
Excuse me, sir.
1:25:59
- What is all this?
- Advance cricket pitch.

1:26:02
Present and ready for your inspection, sir.
1:26:07
What rotten bowlers. Right, drive on.
1:26:11
It is bad. The lower-middle and working
classes receiving the King's Commission?

1:26:16
These classes, unlike like the classes
who led the army when I was a lad,

1:26:20
never had their people to consider.
1:26:29
I liked it better when he was a comedian.
1:26:31
He wasn't very funny but I liked it better.
1:26:33
Jokes. Mind you, I'm working class.
1:26:37
I had a grandfather who was a miner.
1:26:40
Until he sold it.
1:26:42
It's a very simple plan.
All my plans are simple.

1:26:45
You remember Dieppe? Arnhem will be
as simple. A few parachutes, that's all.
