Decisions made by the powers that be
will get to us in the end.

:04:04
Politics and sport, that's all they're full of.
:04:07
Could affect us all,
the er... ultimate determent, an' that.

:04:12
They say there may be a pre-emptive strike,
dear.

:04:15
Oh, not another strike!
:04:17
It's wicked! I'd have them all locked up.
Blessed communists!

:04:21
Well, it all looks pretty umpty.
:04:23
It's not that sort of strike, duck.
:04:26
- Sausages or beefburgers, dear?
- Sausages, thanks.

:04:31
It looks as if the balloon
could go up at any moment.

:04:34
What balloon?
:04:36
- Mashed or chips?
- Chips, thanks.

:04:39
Oh, I don't know.
:04:41
The balloon. Er...
:04:43
Or is it a maroon? I can't remember.
:04:46
What are you talking about, James?
:04:51
It looks as if there's going to be a war, dear.
:04:55
Yes, they say it might break out at any time now.
:04:59
Well, at least you won't be called up, James.
You're far too old.

:05:02
Well, thank you, my beloved.
I'm still two years younger than you.

:05:06
Well, if the worst comes to the worst,
:05:08
we'll just have to roll up our sleeves,
tighten our belts,

:05:11
and put on our tin hats till it's V-E Day again.
:05:15
It won't be like that this time, love.
:05:17
I think this one is called the "Big Bang Theory."
It's all worked out by brilliant scientists.

:05:22
Well, we survived the last one,
we can do it again.

:05:25
It'll take more than a few bombs
to get me down.

:05:27
Yes, yes, we um...
we must... must look on the bright side, ducks.

:05:34
- Better go over to Radio 4.
- I like Radio 2.

:05:37
Radio 4 is better for the international situation.
:05:41
Good evening, this is Radio 4, with the news
at six o'clock this Thursday evening.

:05:46
The Prime Minister, speaking a few minutes ago
in the House of Commons,

:05:50
has warned that the international situation
is deteriorating rapidly,

:05:54
and that war could break out at any time
in the next two or three days.

:05:58
Crumbs!
