Oh, I beg your pardon.
Your husband's regiment?
5th Oxford
light infantry.
General index. Give me particulars
5th Oxfordshire
light infantry, will you?
I'd like to send him parcels.
I suppose I can do that.
Oh, yes, certainly.
...flag 27.
Prisoner of war number 1376.
Thank you.
Hello, Mummy!
Hello, darling.
Have you had a lovely day
with Grandpa?
Will Father ever come back to us,
Grandpa,
Even when the war's over?
Well, would you be glad if he did?
No. He used to make Mummy cry.
He is a prisoner.
Hello, Desmond.
Hello, Mummy.
Janet, I'll leave you in charge.
Well?
He didn't put me down as next of kin.
Well, that seems to be the final gesture,
doesn't it, my dear?
It was only logical, I suppose.
Poor Geoffrey.
Poor Geoffrey?
Well, I for one don't intend to shed
any tears over him.
Father?
You are?
Yes.
Can't do any harm or good.
They must be glad
of any news of home.
I don't suppose poor Geoffrey
ever portrayed
the faintest interest in his home.
I can tell him how the children
are getting on.
I can see Geoffrey regaling
his fellow prisoners
with news of the children he's
scarcely ever seen.
You're afraid, aren't you, Father?
Certainly. I'm afraid that you may let
yourself be carried away
by sentimentality and suggest
patching things up with him.
Don't worry.
We said so many hard,
cruel things to each other.
I'd like to wipe out
the memory of them.
And then if we should happen to meet
when the war's over,
it won't be as enemies.
Here. Go easy
with the soap.
Sorry, old boy.
We may make it last 2 days more
if we're very careful.
After that, we've got to make
do with godliness.
I say, Padre, what are you smoking?
Sauerkraut?
Fag ends, fag ends, fag ends.
Lucky fellow. I'm down to
Mr. Middleton's specials.
I hear there's a bush up by the...
That's not too bad in a pipe.
Had a marvelous
dream last night.
Anybody I know?
Eggs and bacon.
Tomato ketchup this time.
We must have lost
a shocking lot of stuff.
There's nothing to stop 'em.
He's bound to invade
before the end of summer,
And that's the end of us.
Here, steady.
What about the home fleet?
What about the Luftwaffe
waiting for the home fleet?
Well, of all the damn defeated!
Well, if you prefer to be a ruddy halfwit.
What about the RAF?
Hitler can't stage an invasion
until he's got control of the air,
and I don't see the boys handing
him that on a plate.
Hear, hear!
You can't judge Hitler
by ordinary standards.
If he thinks he'll invade,
he'll invade.
My old woman makes the kids pay a penny
a week for the Red Cross.
