And N.R.A.C. C - National Rmergency
Airborne Command Centre.

:40:06
And it all comes under W. W.M.C.C. S -
Woridwide Military Command & Control System.

:40:17
We should be all right
with that lot looking after us, eh, ducks?

:40:21
Well, it didn't stop them from bombing us, did it?
:40:24
Oh er... well, no er... I suppose not, really.
:40:28
Still, just think, it might have been worse.
:40:31
Got to look on the bright side, ducks.
:40:34
Besides, another thing the powers that be
have created is called M.A.D.

:40:39
- Mad?
- Yes, M.A.D.

:40:41
M.A.D. Mutal Assured Destruction.
:40:44
I read about it in the public library.
:40:46
I think my old dad was in
the Mutual Assured Insurance.

:40:50
- A penny a week it was, in those days.
- This isn't insurance, ducks.

:40:54
I think it covered the cost of the funeral.
:40:56
Yes, well, I suppose this is similar.
:40:59
It all comes out of our taxes.
:41:01
He had a lovely funeral, our dad.
:41:05
You don't pay any taxes now.
You're retired, James.

:41:08
No, I'm fully paid up.
:41:10
My funeral is fully assured.
:41:13
Time we went to bed.
:41:15
It's getting dark.
:41:17
I'll sleep in my clothes.
It's an all-out war situation.

:41:21
I might be called out in the night
for an emergency.

:41:24
They may need all able-bodied men
at short notice.

:41:27
They'll soon change their minds
when they see your pot-bellied little body.

:41:36
Morning, dear.
:41:39
- How do you feel?
- Oh, dear.

:41:43
- I ache all over.
- So do I.

:41:47
I've got a terrific headache.
:41:50
Oh... I still feel so tired.
:41:53
Never mind, ducks. It's probably shock.
The bomb, an' that.

:41:57
Oh, it's bound to upset us a bit.
:41:59
After all, you don't get a nuclear bomb
every day of the week, do you?
