: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.

:54:00
- Thirty men killed in F-section.
- I see.

:54:02
I should think about 150 men altogether, sir.
:54:05
Jolly good.
:54:06
I haven't got the final figures,
but there's a lot of seriously wounded...

:54:10
Yes, the thing is, Sergeant,
I've got a bit of a problem here.

:54:15
One of the officers has lost a leg.
:54:18
- Oh, no, sir!
- I'm afraid so. Probably a tiger.

:54:22
In Africa?
:54:24
The M.O. Says we can stitch it back on
if we can find it immediately.

:54:27
- Right, sir. I'll organise a party.
- It's hardly the time for that, Sergeant.

:54:33
- A search party.
- Much better idea.

:54:41
Sorry about the mess.
:54:42
We'll try to clear it up
by the time you get back.

:54:44
We showed 'em, right, sir?
Yes.

:54:47
We got a search party. Leave that alone.
:54:49
All this killing, bloodshed,
bloody good fun, sir, isn't it?

:54:52
Very good.
:54:53
- 'Morning, sir.
- Nasty wound you've got there, fella.

:54:55
Thank you very much, sir.
:54:58
Come on, Private.
Making up a search party.
