Do you know what these are, Godliman?
:31:31
American aircraft.
:31:33
These are photographs of Patton's
Allied invasion force in East Anglia.

:31:40
The Germans think
there are only two possible places

:31:43
for an Allied invasion of Europe.
:31:49
And they're right.
:31:51
From East Anglia here
to the Pas-de-Calais,

:31:55
or from the south coast of England
to the beaches of Normandy.

:32:00
Operation Overlord
has decided on Normandy.

:32:03
Then what is General Patton's army
doing in East Anglia?

:32:07
There is no army.
These planes are made out of plywood.

:32:10
We did it to fool the Germans. The man
who took those photographs knows it.

:32:15
Consequently, he must also know
that we intend to invade Normandy.

:32:20
Find him, Godliman.
It could cost us the bloody war.

:32:28
Well, sir, if you were at this station
and wanted to get out of the country,

:32:33
you could go to Holyhead or Liverpool or
Glasgow and then catch a ferry to Ireland.

:32:39
He wouldn't risk Holyhead
because of the passport control.

:32:42
How about Liverpool to Belfast? A car
across lreland and a U-boat on the coast.

:32:48
You're talking about
our 11.45 Marylebone to Inverness.

:32:52
stopping at Stafford, Crewe, Liverpool...
:32:54
Liverpool.
That's where he'll get off. You're right.

:32:58
- The 11.45 left on time.
- How do we get on it?
