Now, that is thoughtful, Sturridge.
Good man.

:45:05
There's a card, sir, from all of us.
Sorry about the blood, sir.

:45:10
Thank you all.
:45:11
Squad! Three cheers for Captain Biggs.
:45:20
I'll be all right.
:45:22
There's just one other thing, sir.
Spadger, give him the cheque.

:45:25
This is really going too far.
:45:28
I don't seem to be able to find it, sir.
It'll be in No. 4 trench.

:45:31
For Christ's sake, forget it, man.
:45:35
You shouldn't have said that, sir.
:45:37
You've hurt his feelings now.
:45:39
Don't mind me, Spadge.
Toffs are all the same.

:45:43
One minute, it's all please and thank you.
The next, they'll kick you in the teeth.

:45:48
- Let's not give him the cake.
- I don't want any cake.

:45:51
Look. Blackitt cooked it
especially for you, you bastard.

:45:54
He saved his rations for six weeks, sir.
:45:57
- I don't mean to be ungrateful.
- I'll be all right...

:46:00
Blackie! Blackie!
:46:02
Look at him! He worked on that cake
like no one else I've ever known.

:46:06
Some nights it was so cold
we could hardly move...

:46:08
but Blackitt'd be slicing the lemons,
mixing the sugar and the almonds.

:46:12
I mean, you try getting butter to melt
at 15 degrees below zero.

:46:16
There's love in that cake.
This man's love and this man's care...

:46:23
- Oh, my Christ!
- You bastard.

:46:28
All right, we will eat the cake.
:46:30
They're right. It's too good a cake not to eat.
:46:34
- Get the plates and knives, Walters.
- Yes, sir. How many?

:46:37
Six.
:46:39
Better make it five.
:46:41
- Tablecloth, sir?
- Yes, get the tablecloth.

:46:46
No, no, I'll get the tablecloth.
:46:48
You better get the gate-leg table, Hordern.
:46:50
- And the little lamp, sir?
- Yes.

:46:53
While you're at it,
you'd better get a doily.

:46:55
I'll bring two
in case one gets crumpled.

:46:57
Okay!
