Synopsis: In 1917, in the Western front, a group of survivors of the British Company Y reach the most forward German trench in a foggy night.

We shouldn't be here.

Do you think our men

will come back for us?

Stay alert. Stay awake.

Right, that says prison to me.

Get in there.

In there.

Aye, why not?

Get in there.

Get in.

Or I'll f***in' shoot ya.

Get in!

Shoot him!

Go on, shoot him.

Why?

Because he kicked me in the f***in' balls.

Why kill him?

What good's that going to do anyone?

He's scared.

F***in' should be.

Come on, what else you gonna do?

Get in.

Come here.

McNess. McNess, don't!

What now? Do you wanna make him

a wee cup of cocoa?

Evenin' Fraulein.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

Oh... this fuckinn' rain!

Come on.

Yeah, nearly there.

Yeah...

Oi, who's that?

Quinn!

Not f***in' funny!

Got ya.

What the f*** is goin' on here?

Oh my f***in' God. Sergeant!

Better come and see this.

Starinski!

There. Quinn, Hawkestone down there.

Shakespeare with me.

Starinski!

You try up there, I'm going down here.

Sergeant.

Sergeant...

I've found Starinski.

There's more Germans here.

We're gonna have to find them.

English!

Speak any French, Captain?

I can.

The other... ou est l'autre?

What's French for German?

Shut up! I'm not askin' you!

I was a liaison with the French Command

before coming to the front.

I can speak French.

- Well, you'd better do the translating then.

- Sir.

- Go on son.

- Sir.

Yeah, you're not proposing f***ing marriage.

Just find out where his mate is.

What's he saying?

He said... well, sir, it's very hard...

What's he saying?

He said... look, I,

I think he said we're all going to die.

It's his Kraut chum who's gonna die.

He said something

about turning on each other.

I'm going to wrap barbed wire around him,

and squeeze him

until he's nothing but little pieces.

He said none of us will survive.

Tell him that we know

his friend murdered one of my men...

and when we find him, we're gonna kill him.

Tell him that.

He said they're not the enemy. He said...

there's something wrong with this place,

with this trench...

Look he said it's in the earth,

in the ground...

In the ground.

They must be using tunnels to get about.

It killed all of them, it's gonna kill us too.

He says we should leave.

Mal. What's that, what's that word?

Evil. It means evil.

This is Y Company,

and we're still alive...

Is anybody there? Anybody?

This is Y Company,

and we're still alive.

No. No. No, we are alive!

We are still alive.

Bradford.

Chevasse.

Who's there?

Who are you?

Who are you?

These Bosch are worse dead than alive.

So what's the point of this?

It's easy to hide in the bodies, isn't it?

Put them all in one place,

and there's one less place to hide.

That's the last of them.

Those we can move anyway.

So much death.
