You don't think it'll come back, do you?
:52:02
- For more, you mean?
- Yes.

:52:03
- We'd better get it stitched.
- Right.

:52:05
Hello, Doc!
:52:07
'Morning. I came as fast as I could.
Is something up?

:52:11
Yes. During the night,
old Perkins got his leg bitten, sort of, off.

:52:16
Yeah. Been in the wars, have we?
:52:19
Yes.
:52:20
Any headache? Bowels all right?
:52:23
Well, let's have a look at
this one leg of yours, then.

:52:28
Yes. Yes.
:52:32
- Yes, well, this is nothing to worry about.
- Good.

:52:36
There's a lot of it about. Probably a virus.
Keep warm, plenty of rest...

:52:40
and if you're playing football or anything,
try and favour the other leg.

:52:43
Right.
:52:44
As right as rain in a couple of days.
:52:47
- Thanks for the reassurance.
- Not at all. That's what I'm here for.

:52:50
Any other problems
I can reassure you about?

:52:52
No, I'm fine.
:52:54
Jolly good. Well, must be off.
:52:56
So it'll just grow back again, then, will it?
:53:03
I think I'd better come clean with you
about this.

:53:06
It's not a virus, I'm afraid.
:53:10
You see, a virus is what we doctors call
very, very small.

:53:13
So small it could not possibly
have made off with a whole leg.

:53:17
What we're looking for,
this is no more than an educated guess...

:53:20
I'd like to make that clear,
is some multicellular life form...

:53:23
with stripes, huge, razor-sharp teeth,
about 11-foot long...

:53:28
and of the genus Felis horribilis.
:53:30
What we doctors, in fact, call a tiger.
:53:34
A tiger?
:53:36
A tiger?
:53:41
A tiger in Africa?
:53:43
A tiger in Africa?
:53:47
- It's probably escaped from a zoo.
- Doesn't sound very likely to me.

:53:51
Sir! Sir!
:53:53
The attack's over, sir.
The Zulus are retreating.

:53:56
Jolly good.
:53:57
Quite a lot of casualties, sir.
C- division wiped out. Signal's gone.
