Whisky Galore! Page #6

There'll be no church for you in Snorvaig today!

Well that was a terrible long sermon the minister gave us!

And all about the Flood!

I was nearly walking out in the middle

to see if she was still afloat!

Well, Joseph, the sabbath is a long long day

right enough.

Yes Mr. Waggett?

Captain Waggett if you don't mind.

I want to speak to your son, George.

George is in his bedroom.

Oh! Not ill I hope.

He's locked in his bedroom with his bible

and some bread and cheese

he'll not be let out until tomorrow morning.

I never heard anything so preposterous!

Have you never heard of the Fourth Commandment?

- remember the Sabb...

- you need not repeat it. I learned the Commandment

years ago.

More shame to you then, that

you should lead my son away from righteousness!

Mrs Campbell, at this very moment,

our troops are fighting in North Africa.

The Germans don't stop fighting on Sunday

so how can we?

What the Germans do, Mr Waggett,

is on their own conscience

and Todday is not in North Africa.

So there's no need to bring the heathens into it.

I've been told there are cannibals in Africa

but no-one is going to persuade my son

to eat human flesh

No-one is asking your son to eat human flesh!

Not yet!

I insist on speaking to George himself

You can go down on your bended knees

and I'll not let you speak to George

I shall certainly not do that!

They don't seem to realise at Headquarters

what I'm up against here.

What would my colonel say if you knew that my second in command had been locked in his bedroom by his mother?

What with all the excitement Mr. Macroon,

I haven't had the chance of having a word with you yet.

It's about Peggy and me.

We want to get married.

I'm hoping you are going to say yes.

So we can fix a date.

Marriage is a serious step.

We better be talking about it in the morning.

Of course I know it's a bit sudden.

After me only being here a couple of days.

It's getting late, Sergeant.

It's a big subject to be talking about tonight.

Now who can that be?

Oh good evening, I'm sorry to break in on you like this.

Not at all, Mr Waggett, not at all.

Come in. You're welcome.

I wish I could offer you a dram,

but I've nothing but lemonade

Very kind of you. It was you that I've really come to see.

Lemonade?

It's a bit of an emergency and I'd like to put you in the picture

So perhaps we could have a few words.

Thank you.

- You won't be taking lemonade Sergeant?

- No, thank you.

Slainte... you know

Aye, you've got the Gaelic fine

Well if you've got business together

I'll be going.

It's about this wreck.

It's a very heavy responsibility for me.

For you, sir? I don't see how it affects the Home Guard, sir.
