00:30:35,492 --> 00:30:36,408
Yeah, go ahead, Vicky.
372
00:30:36,492 --> 00:30:39,325
<i>He's okay, he's safe.</i>
373
00:30:39,909 --> 00:30:43,076
<i>The station's just been on,
he's in France.</i>
374
00:30:43,158 --> 00:30:44,533
What?
375
00:30:44,617 --> 00:30:45,617
He's in France.
376
00:30:48,117 --> 00:30:49,992
He's a D-Day veteran, apparently.
377
00:30:50,076 --> 00:30:53,200
Couldn't get himself on the trip, so he
just legged it over there on his own.
378
00:30:53,283 --> 00:30:54,951
Except he never bothered telling anyone.
379
00:30:55,034 --> 00:30:56,283
Good lad.
380
00:30:56,367 --> 00:30:57,867
Life in the old dog yet, eh?
381
00:30:58,784 --> 00:31:01,450
Oh, Sarge wants me to tweet
a stand down. What shall I put?
382
00:31:01,534 --> 00:31:03,117
Well, that. He's a war hero,
383
00:31:03,242 --> 00:31:04,659
wanted to do the right thing,
only he couldn't,
384
00:31:04,742 --> 00:31:07,867
so he did a runner instead
from his old folks' home.
385
00:31:08,825 --> 00:31:10,742
Hashtag, "The Great Escaper."
386
00:31:37,534 --> 00:31:39,076
That's me done.
387
00:31:45,700 --> 00:31:48,158
There's an organized trip
going off from here
388
00:31:48,242 --> 00:31:53,034
to a, uh, museum
or some exhibition, if you fancy that.
389
00:31:54,076 --> 00:31:56,492
No, I'm taking a walk on the beach.
390
00:31:56,575 --> 00:31:57,867
-Oh.
-Yeah.
391
00:31:57,951 --> 00:32:00,784
-To Sword, right?
-Yeah.
392
00:32:01,450 --> 00:32:02,700
I'll let you know.
393
00:32:02,784 --> 00:32:05,408
Great. See you later, then.
394
00:32:05,492 --> 00:32:06,909
I'll see you then.
395
00:32:08,784 --> 00:32:10,534
<i>Bonjour.</i>
396
00:32:22,408 --> 00:32:23,617
Cheers.
397
00:34:22,574 --> 00:34:25,575
Hey, mate, we can't land in this, can we?
398
00:34:25,658 --> 00:34:28,575
What the bloody hell
are you asking me for, huh?
399
00:34:28,659 --> 00:34:31,324
Well, 'cause you've
been here before, ain't ya?
400
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,867
Move it! Move, move!
401
00:34:33,951 --> 00:34:35,076
You know, with the first lot.
402
00:34:36,533 --> 00:34:37,701
How's it gone?
403
00:34:45,242 --> 00:34:46,242
Piece of piss.
404
00:34:47,158 --> 00:34:49,617
-We went off like clockwork.
-Yeah.
405
00:34:49,701 --> 00:34:52,534
-Incoming!
-They do plan these things, you know?
406
00:34:53,118 --> 00:34:54,701
Move, move!
407
00:34:55,909 --> 00:34:56,742
Move it!
408
00:35:06,325 --> 00:35:07,993
<i>Monsieur.</i>
409
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:11,617
-Oh.
<i>-Monsieur?</i>
410
00:35:11,701 --> 00:35:14,200
Uh? What?
411
00:35:14,284 --> 00:35:17,325
<i>Merci, Monsieur. Merci.</i>
412
00:35:18,242 --> 00:35:20,076
All right. <i>Merci.</i>
413
00:35:22,617 --> 00:35:24,867
Bernie! Bernie!
414
00:35:24,951 --> 00:35:26,409
Over here!
415
00:35:29,076 --> 00:35:30,034
Come on in.
416
00:35:35,909 --> 00:35:38,158
<i>-Ça va bien, Monsieur?
-Merci.</i>
417
00:35:40,076 --> 00:35:41,409
So how did you get on? Okay?
418
00:35:42,284 --> 00:35:43,118
Fine.
419
00:35:45,993 --> 00:35:47,534
Of course.
420
00:35:47,617 --> 00:35:49,450
Well, you're here now.
421
00:35:50,576 --> 00:35:51,784
Have a drink.
422
00:35:52,742 --> 00:35:55,659
Oh, uh... our American friend,
423
00:35:56,325 --> 00:35:58,701
Marshall... rather fitting,
424
00:35:58,784 --> 00:36:03,951
has kindly offered to provide the whole
table with wine for the entire evening.
425
00:36:04,617 --> 00:36:05,867
I'm very tired.
426
00:36:05,951 --> 00:36:08,701
Well, stay. It'll do you good, old man.
427
00:36:08,784 --> 00:36:12,076
Gentlemen, this is my friend Bernie.
428
00:36:12,158 --> 00:36:14,784
Royal Navy.
429
00:36:17,951 --> 00:36:21,742
The world is always more palatable
when seen through a glass, Bernie.
430
00:36:21,826 --> 00:36:22,659
Mmm.
431
00:36:26,158 --> 00:36:31,118
The point is that in the end
everything turned out for the best.
432
00:36:31,242 --> 00:36:34,367
Oh, yeah. Once someone's
tracked Bernie down in France
433
00:36:34,450 --> 00:36:35,868
and made sure he's all right.
434
00:36:35,951 --> 00:36:40,076
Bernie is a very resourceful man.
435
00:36:40,534 --> 00:36:43,659
Oh, and by the way, Adele,
that fish was lovely.
436
00:36:44,325 --> 00:36:47,034
Bernie will be very upset
not to have had it.
437
00:36:47,826 --> 00:36:53,701
Mind you, I can just picture him now
tucking into a plate full of snails.
438
00:36:53,784 --> 00:36:55,034
Eh, Judith?
439
00:36:58,826 --> 00:37:00,617
Ooh...
440
00:37:00,701 --> 00:37:02,993
-What a wind up, you are.
-Oh, come on.
441
00:37:03,076 --> 00:37:05,492
She's much too serious.
She needs to relax,
442
00:37:05,576 --> 00:37:08,118
otherwise she'll make herself poorly.
443
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:09,826
Let's get you changed.
I've got your bed ready.
