<i>My dearest Jane...</i>
372
00:28:02,449 --> 00:28:03,984
<i>...every time I write to you,</i>
373
00:28:04,451 --> 00:28:07,054
<i>I fear my stories
are just a spinning carousel,</i>
374
00:28:08,088 --> 00:28:09,390
<i>our life continues.</i>
375
00:28:10,457 --> 00:28:11,458
<i>We dig the clay.</i>
376
00:28:12,559 --> 00:28:14,228
<i>And the work can suck the life</i>
377
00:28:14,328 --> 00:28:16,263
<i>from your bones
if you're not careful.</i>
378
00:28:18,232 --> 00:28:21,201
<i>The days when it's quiet,
I forget,</i>
379
00:28:21,302 --> 00:28:23,871

a sewer tunnel back home.</i>

<i>the rats, the stench.</i>
384
00:28:37,384 --> 00:28:39,520
<i>There are too many
things that I want to forget.</i>
385
00:28:49,997 --> 00:28:52,833
<i>My heart sinks that the other
men take us for cowards.</i>
386
00:28:53,367 --> 00:28:55,369
<i>That we hide
from the fighting down here.</i>
387
00:28:57,137 --> 00:28:59,039
<i>I want them to know what we do.</i>
388
00:28:59,139 --> 00:29:01,008
<i>To see us as true soldiers.</i>
389

<i>The war to end all wars, it is
what I believe we're here for.</i>
391
00:29:11,251 --> 00:29:15,255
<i>So I shall do my part,
my duty...</i>
392
00:29:15,989 --> 00:29:17,224

home to you.</i>
393

and our boy.</i>

<i>William.</i>
396
00:29:43,618 --> 00:29:45,986
Been here two months.
Feel like I'm 60 odd.
397
00:29:47,154 --> 00:29:48,255
Could be worse.
398
00:29:49,223 --> 00:29:50,557
- How's that then?
- I don't know.
399
00:29:51,525 --> 00:29:53,127
Just what people say, isn't it.
400
00:29:54,061 --> 00:29:55,162
Come on, lads.
401
00:29:56,163 --> 00:29:57,131
Time's wasting.
402
00:30:28,061 --> 00:30:29,163
Ah!
403
00:30:29,664 --> 00:30:32,433
Fritz bastard goes
for me every damn day.
404
00:30:32,533 --> 00:30:34,501
Who the hell wants to shoot someone
when they're on the crapper?
405
00:30:34,601 --> 00:30:35,536
Anyone who knows you?
406
00:30:37,404 --> 00:30:39,239
If it weren't him,
it'd be somebody else.
407
00:30:40,507 --> 00:30:43,076
Don't take it personal, we'll be
out of this soon enough.
408
00:30:44,746 --> 00:30:48,048
- How long have we got left anyway?
- 40, 45 yards to go.
409
00:30:49,583 --> 00:30:52,553
Get these coordinates spot on.
Light it up, we'll be on our way.
410
00:31:22,516 --> 00:31:23,550
And that's the 200.
411
00:31:24,652 --> 00:31:27,421
All right. Dig out caverns,
set bombs, and job done.
412
00:31:34,328 --> 00:31:37,264
- Oh Jesus Christ.
- Keep sucking on it, it'll break up.
413
00:31:38,332 --> 00:31:40,735
It's like them things that you give
babies, but made of concrete.
414
00:31:40,835 --> 00:31:42,202
They're dog biscuits.
415
00:31:42,637 --> 00:31:45,072
You what? These are not
bloody dog biscuits.
416
00:31:45,172 --> 00:31:46,774
I've been eating these things
since I got here.
417
00:31:46,875 --> 00:31:50,477
I'm telling you. Had staffies
since I was a nipper, so I know.
418
00:31:50,577 --> 00:31:53,180
It's true, we did.
Nasty little buggers, they were.
419
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,583
They just had good taste is all.
And this is a dog biscuit.
420
00:32:03,156 --> 00:32:05,760
Bloody hell. That were close.
421
00:32:06,493 --> 00:32:09,162
That were close.
422
00:32:27,180 --> 00:32:28,348
Christ, it's going to break!
423
00:32:29,149 --> 00:32:30,050
Brace the walls!
424
00:32:34,555 --> 00:32:35,690
Shit!
425
00:32:35,790 --> 00:32:36,791
Get back!
426
00:32:37,391 --> 00:32:38,626
Move now!
427
00:32:50,304 --> 00:32:52,339
Everyone all right?
428
00:32:53,540 --> 00:32:55,743
George?
429
00:32:55,843 --> 00:32:58,579
Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine.
430
00:33:00,715 --> 00:33:02,149
Charlie, you okay?
431
00:33:03,651 --> 00:33:04,518
Charlie?
432
00:33:07,254 --> 00:33:08,221
No, I'm not.
433
00:33:09,489 --> 00:33:11,726
It were too close this time.
Too bloody close.
434
00:33:16,563 --> 00:33:18,733
Good job you were doing
all that praying, hey, Georgie.
435
00:33:20,500 --> 00:33:21,501
Still alive, aren't you?
436
00:33:23,570 --> 00:33:25,572
This is what you imagined
it would be like, Bill?
437
00:33:26,406 --> 00:33:2
