They've gone into Luxembourg, sir.
all over Europe.
We shall not see them lit again
in our lifetime.
Notify Lieutenant Feldmann.
He is to withdraw immediately
from Luxembourg.
To retreat now would be disastrous.
We must go forward.
Very well.
Advance into Luxembourg!
The sword is drawn!
without victory and honour!
All of you shall and will see to it
that only in honour
is it returned to the scabbard.
Let every man look into his own heart
and his own feelings
and construe for himself
the extent of his obligation for himself.
Sir.
They've invaded Belgium.
Now you'll have to go to war.
You're wanted at headquarters, sir.
Your Majesty.
General's brigade, march!
We do not see any reason,
however distant, for a conflict.
May I beg Your Excellency
to express to His Majesty
my profound gratitude for all the
marks of friendship and consideration
which I have received
in the last eight months.
And assure him of the profound respect
of His Majesty the King,
who regards His Majesty
with deep veneration
and expresses the hope
that the most regrettable state of war
between Great Britain and the monarchy
may be of no long duration.
I am extremely perturbed at the thought
that we should find ourselves at conflict
with England
since the two countries
are so near to one another
politically and morally, with
traditional sympathies and interests.
Allow me to share your hope
that the present,
most unfortunate state of war
will be of no long duration
and that normal relations
will shortly be resumed.
Mum, a band! A band!
Come on! Come on!
Come on! Come on!
Coming.
Grandpa, look! It's a band!
Mummy! Mummy! Mummy!
By the centre, quick march!
Ha'penny won'th of chips, please.
Oh, I do like to live beside the seaside
I do like to be beside the sea
- Good morning, Sir Douglas.
- Good morning, Miss Bates.
Oh, I do like to see a lot of soldiers
Oh, soldiers are what I like to see
And if they've got a sword and horse
Then I like them more, of course
Because I just love the cavalry
Oh, I do like to live beside the seaside
I do like to be beside the sea
Oh I do like to stroll
along the prom prom prom
tiddley-om-pom-pom
Right. Come along, then.
First man, please.
Brownley, Cecil. One, please.
Thank you very much.
- Lang, Mary.
- Thank you.
Take her, love.
Smith, Florence Victoria.
Smith, Jack Henry.
Smith, Mary Emma. Thank you.
Smith, Harry Arnold.
Smith, Elizabeth May.
Smith, George Patrick Michael.
Wilson, Rose.
Smith, Frederick Percy.
Smith, Dickie.
I beg your pardon, sir. Richard.
