1
00:01:05,046 --> 00:01:10,564
# Once a native maiden and a stranger met
2
00:01:10,606 --> 00:01:15,521
# Underneath a blue Tahitian moon
3
00:01:15,566 --> 00:01:18,478
# The stars were in her eyes
4
00:01:18,526 --> 00:01:21,802
# Gardenias in her hair
5
00:01:21,846 --> 00:01:27,159
# And they vowed to care forever
6
00:01:27,206 --> 00:01:32,883
# Then one lonely day
the stranger sailed away
7
00:01:32,926 --> 00:01:36,555
# With a parting kiss that came too soon
8
00:01:37,926 --> 00:01:40,565
# And now the trade winds sigh
9
00:01:40,606 --> 00:01:43,484
# When ships go sailing by... #
10
00:01:43,526 --> 00:01:47,804
This country is at war with Germany.
11
00:01:53,046 --> 00:01:57,676
# Once a native maiden and a stranger met
12
00:01:58,326 --> 00:02:02,365
# Underneath a blue Tahitian moon
13
00:02:03,246 --> 00:02:06,318
# The stars were in her eyes
14
00:02:06,366 --> 00:02:09,438
# Gardenias in her hair #
15
00:02:09,486 --> 00:02:12,876
Down here
on the platform of Piccadilly Tube station
16
00:02:12,926 --> 00:02:16,362
in the heart of London's West End....
17
00:02:16,406 --> 00:02:19,045
Many are bombed out of their homes...
18
00:02:19,086 --> 00:02:22,317
... today of the evacuation
of London's schoolchildren.
19
00:02:24,326 --> 00:02:27,363
... two attacks against London
and Southeast England.
20
00:02:27,406 --> 00:02:30,443
... 200 feet below ground,
but they feel safe here.
21
00:02:30,486 --> 00:02:32,283
# When ships go sailing by
22
00:02:32,326 --> 00:02:36,763
# Underneath a blue Tahitian moon #
23
00:03:06,206 --> 00:03:09,403
But you're not a coward.
- I don't want to die.
24
00:03:09,446 --> 00:03:12,085
And why should I? And if I don't,
why should anyone else?
25
00:03:12,126 --> 00:03:14,959
Yet, still,
you wouldn't make peace now.
26
00:03:15,006 --> 00:03:18,794
Not now. You wouldn't support that.
You couldn't.
27
00:03:18,846 --> 00:03:21,679
You've only got the one life, Anita. Just the one.
28
00:03:21,726 --> 00:03:22,920
Dylan?
29
00:03:23,926 --> 00:03:25,484
Is it?
30
00:03:26,726 --> 00:03:28,444
Dylan Thomas. It is, isn't it?
31
00:03:28,486 --> 00:03:30,124
Oh, my God.
32
00:03:31,446 --> 00:03:34,643
- You might at least have lifted my veil!
- Oh, my God. Still love me?
33
00:03:34,686 --> 00:03:37,154
- Did I ever?
- Lift the bloody veil, Vera.
34
00:03:40,686 --> 00:03:43,120
Look at you.
35
00:03:43,166 --> 00:03:45,441
Look at you. Not been called up?
36
00:03:45,486 --> 00:03:49,399
Just because I haven't got a uniform.
It's me that puts the heart in the nation.
37
00:03:49,446 --> 00:03:51,357
Ammo factories, I sing in.
38
00:03:51,406 --> 00:03:54,762
- Down the tubes right now.
- I always loved your voice. Always.
39
00:03:54,806 --> 00:03:57,445
- Amongst other things, I loved...
- Don't you come it, Dylan Thomas!
40
00:03:57,486 --> 00:03:59,556
- You haven't changed.
- Course I have, thank God.
41
00:03:59,606 --> 00:04:01,836
You can't. And don't. Not ever.
42
00:04:01,886 --> 00:04:04,400
If you do, I won't let you.
43
00:04:04,446 --> 00:04:06,676
I heard you on the radio.
44
00:04:07,486 --> 00:04:11,115
Like going home, it was, your poems.
Like going back.
45
00:04:12,046 --> 00:04:14,958
- Where's the posh accent from?
- You should've looked me up.
46
00:04:15,006 --> 00:04:16,883
- Should I?
- Mm.
47
00:04:18,566 --> 00:04:22,684
If I can get all my friends to donate
five bob each, this is the plan, see.
48
00:04:22,726 --> 00:04:26,924
If I get them all to do that, I don't have to sell
my soul writing bloody propaganda films.
49
00:04:26,966 --> 00:04:30,242
- I can write my bloody poetry.
- You'd have to join the army.
50
00:04:30,286 --> 00:04:32,925
Grade Three sitting here before you, Vera.
51
00:04:32,966 --> 00:04:36,197
Lungs raddled like a Sunday whore.
52
00:04:38,726 --> 00:04:42,116
So... lend us five bob.
53
00:04:42,966 --> 00:04:46,436
- I'll give you a snout, that's all you'll get.
- Oh. Give us, then.
54
00:04:47,806 --> 00:04:52,084
- Silver's for the lonely, Vera Bera.
- Who says I'm lonely?
55
00:04:52,126 --> 00:04:55,277
- Well, where's the man who'll give you gold?
- That an offer, is it?
56
00:04:55,326 --> 00:04:58,602
- It's always been shares with us.
- You never had anything to share.
57
00:04:58,646 --> 00:05:02,195
Yes, but if I did,
if ever I did, you'd be the first.
58
00:05:02,246 --> 00:05:06,524
There's no folks like home folks.
And folks you've grown up with...
59
00:05:08,606 --> 00:05:10,836
...they're the best of all.
60
00:05:13,166 --> 00:05:15,441
- You win.
- Goody.
61
00:05:20,606 --> 00:05:22,198
Forever and always.
62
00:05:24,726 --> 00:05:26,364
You won't, will you?
63
00:05:26,406 --> 00:05:28,966
- Won't what, lovely?
- Get lost again?
64
00:05:41,126 --> 00:05:42,798
Ta, mate.
65
00:06:01,006 --> 00:06:04,203
Hello, love!
66
00:06:13,006 --> 00:06:15,520
I have longed to move away
67
00:06:15,566 --> 00:06:18,399
From the hissing of the spent lie
68
00:06:18,446 --> 00:06:21,916
And the old terrors' continual cry
69
00:06:21,966 --> 00:06:23,399
Growing more terrible
70
00:06:23,446 --> 00:06:27,325
As the day goes over the hill
into the deep sea
71
00:06:28,126 --> 00:06:30,401
I have longed to move away
72
00:06:30,446 --> 00:06:33,324
From the repetition of salutes
73
00:06:33,366 --> 00:06:35,834
For there are ghosts in the air
74
00:06:35,886 --> 00:06:37,956
And ghostly echoes on paper
75
00:06:39,926 --> 00:06:43,521
This is Dylan Thomas
for the BBC Home Service.
76
00:06:50,406 --> 00:06:53,079
- Hello, darling!
- Where you going?
77
00:06:53,126 --> 00:06:54,479
Tension, four hundredweight.
78
00:06:54,526 --> 00:06:58,678
The commentary has to persuade
women to join the balloon defences.
79
00:06:58,726 --> 00:07:02,685
"Shaft a Jerry and maybe one of our
boys will shaft you." That do you?
80
00:07:02,726 --> 00:07:05,957
Your talents really are wasted here, Dylan.
81
00:07:06,006 --> 00:07:09,157
We could have a drink if you like? After.
82
00:07:09,206 --> 00:07:12,357
- Course we could.
- I'm not a bloody dog, Dylan.
83
00:07:12,406 --> 00:07:14,476
It's the brunette, isn't it?
84
00:07:16,566 --> 00:07:21,037
I had a golden childhood, Anita.
And here it is turning up all unexpected.
85
00:07:21,086 --> 00:07:24,442
Now I can't look a golden childhood
in the mouth, can I?
86
00:07:24,486 --> 00:07:26,522
The commentary, please, Dylan.
87
00:07:31,486 --> 00:07:33,442
Myselves
88
00:07:33,486 --> 00:07:35,716
The grievers grieve among the street
89
00:07:35,766 --> 00:07:38,724
Burned to tireless death
90
00:07:38,766 --> 00:07:40,119
A child of a few hours
91
00:07:40,166 --> 00:07:41,485
With its kneading mouth
92
00:07:41,526 --> 00:07:43,801
Charred on the black breast of the grave
93
00:07:43,846 --> 00:07:45,518
The mother dug
94
00:07:45,566 --> 00:07:47,636
And its arms full of fires.
95
00:07:47,686 --> 00:07:52,123
Spare us the bloody tragedy, man.
I need something hopeful here.
96
00:07:54,206 --> 00:07:56,481
The lion once known as Jehovah
97
00:07:56,526 --> 00:07:59,404
- Oh...
- Rose up and cocked its leg over
98
00:07:59,446 --> 00:08:01,402
The lioness roared,
Jehovah had scored
99
00:08:01,446 --> 00:08:03,038
All over the living room sofa
100
00:08:03,086 --> 00:08:05,236
Dylan, I require a commentary.
101
00:08:05,286 --> 00:08:08,437
Dylan! Dylan!
102
00:08:27,046 --> 00:08:28,445
Caitlin?
103
00:08:28,486 --> 00:08:31,603
- You told me you couldn't live without me.
- Where's our son?
104
00:08:31,646 --> 00:08:35,764
Chopped up in little bits and packed
with my knickers in the suitcase.
105
00:08:35,806 --> 00:08:37,683
The police'll be chasing you.
106
00:08:37,726 --> 00:08:40,479
- Don't pretend you want him here.
- There's bombs!
107
00:08:40,526 --> 00:08:45,077
It's nothing to do with bombs.
You don't want him. So I didn't bring him.
108
00:08:46,646 --> 00:08:51,003
I've never been a father before, Cat.
It's not straightforward.
109
00:08:51,046 --> 00:08:54,197
- Still the light of your life, am I?
- In the New Forest, is he?
110
00:08:54,246 --> 00:08:58,205
Why are you asking, Dullun?
You know damn well our son's with my mother.
111
00:08:58,246 --> 00:09:00,282
I love you, Cat.
112
00:09:00,326 --> 00:09:02,715
Give us a fag, then.
113
00:09:02,766 --> 00:09:06,805
I'm out of bleeding fags.
Give my head a good scratch. Please?
114
00:09:09,046 --> 00:09:10,923
Oh, lovely!
115
00:09:10,966 --> 00:09:12,797
- Where are we living?
- Nowhere.
116
00:09:12,846 --> 00:09:15,997
- Ow! Velvet your bloody claws!
- Scratch your own bloody head!
117
00:09:16,046 --> 00:09:17,445
- Come here.
- No.
118
00:09:17,486 --> 00:09:19,158
Kiss me.
119
00:09:30,286 --> 00:09:33,403
Excuse me.
You dropped your handkerchief.
120
00:09:34,766 --> 00:09:37,360
- No, I didn't.
- Yes, you did. Right there.
121
00:09:38,726 --> 00:09:40,398
It's not mine, sorry.
122
00:09:40,446 --> 00:09:44,155
You're supposed to take the hankie,
I'm supposed to introduce myself,
123
00:09:44,206 --> 00:09:46,879
- buy you a drink.
- I don't want a drink.
124
00:09:49,486 --> 00:09:52,842
- Nice try, though.
- I've never done this before.
125
00:09:52,886 --> 00:09:56,276
No. You've just never
been caught out before.
126
00:10:02,286 --> 00:10:03,844
Hello, darling.
127
00:10:06,366 --> 00:10:10,518
- Sod you, then!
- Oh, dear. Picky, picky, picky.
128
00:10:10,566 --> 00:10:14,445
- You're late.
- I know. It's all her fault.
129
00:10:18,126 --> 00:10:20,924
- Who's your friend?
- Queen of Ireland,
130
00:10:20,966 --> 00:10:25,721
love of my life, mother of my child,
Caitlin Thomas.
131
00:10:27,206 --> 00:10:28,719
Your wife, Dylan?
132
00:10:30,486 --> 00:10:32,556
The one and only.
133
00:10:34,006 --> 00:10:38,955
- He didn't mention...
- Well, he wouldn't, would he?
134
00:10:43,046 --> 00:10:45,480
You made that, didn't you?
135
00:10:47,486 --> 00:10:49,238
I might like you.
136
00:10:49,286 --> 00:10:51,880
Then again, I might not.
137
00:10:53,046 --> 00:10:55,401
I'll await your decision, shall I?
138
00:10:56,286 --> 00:10:58,754
I won't hold my breath, mind.
139
00:11:00,126 --> 00:11:03,960
- Got a mansion we could share?
- Yes. Two little homeless orphans.
140
00:11:04,006 --> 00:11:08,761
- I've only got a room.
- Bugger. Condemned to her sister's.
141
00:11:08,806 --> 00:11:10,876
I'll be having that, sailor boy.
142
00:11:10,926 --> 00:11:14,316
- Needn't let...
- Small matter of a wife?
143
00:11:16,286 --> 00:11:20,757
- Nothing should ever come between us.
- Oh, God, Dylan.
144
00:11:20,806 --> 00:11:23,195
Soul mates, we are, Vera. Always were.
145
00:11:23,246 --> 00:11:27,080
- Don't.
- Stop talking about me.
146
00:11:29,286 --> 00:11:32,915
There's a phone in the hall
where I stay. You know.
147
00:11:34,206 --> 00:11:37,243
If you want me, he's got my number.
148
00:11:41,806 --> 00:11:43,524
What does it mean when she smiles?
149
00:11:45,126 --> 00:11:47,082
I don't know. Never did.
150
00:11:52,606 --> 00:11:56,281
God help us.
It's the Visigoths from Wales.
151
00:11:57,086 --> 00:11:58,963
Your sister's here.
152
00:11:59,886 --> 00:12:02,719
Back from strangling Germans, then, are you?
153
00:12:02,766 --> 00:12:05,280
Left the other boys playing with their little pistols.
154
00:12:05,326 --> 00:12:08,762
All ging-gang-gooley and yo-ho-ho.
155
00:12:08,806 --> 00:12:11,081
That what you call poetry, is it?
156
00:12:11,126 --> 00:12:14,118
Look, give us a bed
and we'll stay out from under your feet.
157
00:12:15,486 --> 00:12:23,678
# Maybe it's because I kissed you too much
158
00:12:26,926 --> 00:12:34,082
# Maybe that is why
my kiss means too little
159
00:12:39,366 --> 00:12:50,277
# Maybe with a love so great
and a love so small
160
00:12:51,686 --> 00:13:02,005
# Maybe I'll be left with no love at all
161
00:13:04,406 --> 00:13:15,874
# Maybe I'll be left with no love at all #
162
00:13:33,486 --> 00:13:37,843
Sometimes I can nurse a single pint
all night. But that's sometimes.
163
00:13:38,846 --> 00:13:40,518
Thank you.
164
00:13:40,766 --> 00:13:43,678
Oh, yeah! I thought it was hilarious.
165
00:13:45,206 --> 00:13:48,596
I'll get them in.
You pay, though, Vera, eh? Fair dos.
166
00:13:48,846 --> 00:13:51,997
- Support the starving poet.
- You are not a bloody poet, Dylan.
167
00:13:52,046 --> 00:13:55,322
You write films about barrage
sodding balloons for your living.
168
00:13:55,366 --> 00:13:56,845
There is a war on.
169
00:13:56,886 --> 00:13:58,877
You know, you're not the man I married.
170
00:13:58,926 --> 00:14:03,158
I did cartwheels in a rubber corset in Peter
Robinson's window when I was hungry.
171
00:14:03,206 --> 00:14:05,720
You were never hungry.
You've always had a man to feed you.
172
00:14:05,766 --> 00:14:08,963
Demonstration purposes it was.
Bet you can't beat that.
173
00:14:09,006 --> 00:14:11,042
Bet I can't.
174
00:14:14,206 --> 00:14:16,197
He's following me.
175
00:14:17,886 --> 00:14:20,241
Don't you have all the luck!
176
00:14:20,286 --> 00:14:21,605
Watch this.
177
00:14:33,246 --> 00:14:36,522
- Causing chaos, my lovely.
- What do you need knickers for?
178
00:14:36,566 --> 00:14:39,603
Looking for a good time
with a couple of showgirls?
179
00:14:42,646 --> 00:14:44,841
Three more, please.
Your drinks, chaps.
180
00:14:44,886 --> 00:14:49,801
- Chief stag sees off the competition.
- William Killick.
181
00:14:53,566 --> 00:14:56,797
Vera Phillips.
She's very pleased to meet you.
182
00:14:56,846 --> 00:14:59,121
- Rums all round?
- Mmm, goody!
183
00:14:59,166 --> 00:15:00,679
Four rums, please.
184
00:15:04,406 --> 00:15:07,000
- Do you do cartwheels?
- On the seashore I might.
185
00:15:07,046 --> 00:15:09,685
Ah. I'll take you there.
186
00:15:10,366 --> 00:15:13,915
- You're busy, by the looks of you.
- I could do with some sea air.
187
00:15:14,566 --> 00:15:16,443
I'd like to sit on the beach with you.
188
00:15:17,246 --> 00:15:19,237
Don't you know a brush-off
when you get one?
189
00:15:19,286 --> 00:15:21,322
Got any smokes?
190
00:15:21,366 --> 00:15:23,641
I enjoyed your show.
191
00:15:23,686 --> 00:15:25,324
- Did you?
- Yes.
192
00:15:27,566 --> 00:15:29,955
- Hey?
- Hay's for horses.
193
00:15:30,006 --> 00:15:31,724
Come for a gallop.
194
00:15:33,046 --> 00:15:36,277
Used to call it busking,
singing in the tube stations.
195
00:15:36,326 --> 00:15:38,794
Coppers used to move you on.
196
00:15:40,206 --> 00:15:42,117
I'll come again, if I may.
197
00:15:43,126 --> 00:15:44,559
Free world.
198
00:16:04,086 --> 00:16:08,602
Keeping those rums to yourself?
We're in danger of breaking a thirst.
199
00:16:08,646 --> 00:16:11,683
I don't melt at the sight of a uniform, that's all.
200
00:16:11,726 --> 00:16:16,402
- Sod it. I don't like nosy parkers.
- It was a civil question.
201
00:16:16,446 --> 00:16:19,244
I could have said,
"Are you after my husband?" But I didn't.
202
00:16:21,686 --> 00:16:25,201
Heartache, that's what I see in a uniform.
203
00:16:25,246 --> 00:16:27,635
I won't love someone
just to have them die on me.
204
00:16:27,686 --> 00:16:30,837
Who's talking about love?
Don't you ever get lonely?
205
00:16:30,886 --> 00:16:34,196
- My work's all I need.
- I used to think I'd be a dancer.
206
00:16:34,246 --> 00:16:36,282
Danced night and day.
207
00:16:38,606 --> 00:16:41,200
I know, you're one of those.
208
00:16:41,246 --> 00:16:44,477
No. No! God!
209
00:16:44,526 --> 00:16:47,199
Not one of those, for God's sake!
Not that I'm averse.
210
00:16:47,246 --> 00:16:50,556
One of the ones
that never got over her first love.
211
00:16:51,566 --> 00:16:54,126
Course I am.
212
00:16:57,326 --> 00:17:00,124
Didn't your mother
teach you any manners?
213
00:17:00,166 --> 00:17:03,203
- All I said...
- You can walk on your own, I know.
214
00:17:03,246 --> 00:17:06,079
Keep your hand on your ha'penny,
that's what my mother taught me.
215
00:17:06,126 --> 00:17:10,119
- I'm not touching you.
- Well, don't look at me either.
216
00:17:10,166 --> 00:17:11,838
Fine.
217
00:17:11,886 --> 00:17:14,195
No, don't do that!
218
00:17:15,566 --> 00:17:18,524
What have you got against me,
Vera Phillips?
219
00:17:19,686 --> 00:17:21,756
You might be dead tomorrow.
220
00:17:21,806 --> 00:17:24,639
Live while you can, live all you can.
221
00:17:26,806 --> 00:17:30,242
- I won't see you again.
- Of course not.
222
00:17:33,526 --> 00:17:35,596
I'd like my torch back.
223
00:17:40,366 --> 00:17:41,924
Please.
224
00:17:51,966 --> 00:17:54,764
Don't let the light out!
225
00:17:54,806 --> 00:17:57,274
Light of your life.
226
00:17:59,006 --> 00:18:02,316
Has to wipe its feet
before it comes back in again.
227
00:18:06,406 --> 00:18:07,919
No!
228
00:18:10,206 --> 00:18:12,117
Cat! Cat!
229
00:18:14,566 --> 00:18:17,399
Little dog needs the toilet.
230
00:18:17,446 --> 00:18:19,676
Go bark somewhere else.
231
00:18:30,286 --> 00:18:31,799
Come on, Catty.
232
00:18:35,006 --> 00:18:37,566
Have you got a poem for me?
233
00:18:37,606 --> 00:18:40,837
You still owe me for the last one.
234
00:18:42,086 --> 00:18:46,557
I am not a sodding deposit box, Dylan.
235
00:18:55,006 --> 00:18:57,440
What do you think this is?
236
00:19:00,726 --> 00:19:02,956
- It could be a scribble!
- Could be.
237
00:19:03,006 --> 00:19:05,679
- It could be a bloody limerick, Dullun!
- Could be.
238
00:19:08,526 --> 00:19:13,554
Among Those Killed In The Dawn Raid
Was A Man Aged A Hundred.
239
00:19:13,606 --> 00:19:16,404
- Happy piece, is it?
- Do you want to hear it?
240
00:19:17,926 --> 00:19:19,723
Do you?
241
00:19:19,766 --> 00:19:21,836
Do you want to hear it?
242
00:19:24,006 --> 00:19:25,803
Oh, heavy!
243
00:19:33,526 --> 00:19:36,802
When the morning
was waking over the war
244
00:19:36,846 --> 00:19:41,522
He put on his clothes
and stepped out and he died
245
00:19:42,686 --> 00:19:46,998
The locks yawned loose
as a blast blew them wide
246
00:19:47,046 --> 00:19:49,606
He dropped where he loved
on the burst pavement...
247
00:19:49,646 --> 00:19:51,841
- Lived.
- What?
248
00:19:51,886 --> 00:19:54,275
Lived.
249
00:19:54,326 --> 00:19:56,601
Oh, no, it's loved.
250
00:19:56,646 --> 00:19:59,285
You can't read your own bloody writing.
Lived! Lived!
251
00:19:59,326 --> 00:20:01,715
- Loved!
- He's a hundred sodding years old!
252
00:20:01,766 --> 00:20:03,165
He can't remember love.
253
00:20:03,206 --> 00:20:05,481
The bloody word's only
there because I wrote it!
254
00:20:05,526 --> 00:20:07,244
Dropped where he loved
255
00:20:07,286 --> 00:20:09,516
- on the burst pavement stone
- Shh!
256
00:20:13,526 --> 00:20:15,960
It's mine, isn't it?
257
00:20:17,046 --> 00:20:19,162
What you write.
258
00:20:20,046 --> 00:20:22,241
All my words.
259
00:20:22,286 --> 00:20:24,959
And every heartbeat.
260
00:20:25,006 --> 00:20:27,315
They're all for you.
261
00:20:27,366 --> 00:20:29,038
Me?
262
00:20:31,286 --> 00:20:33,436
Come here, then.
263
00:20:34,726 --> 00:20:36,956
Come on, you!
264
00:20:41,566 --> 00:20:47,402
Get out of bed and come and see
what he's done this time!
265
00:20:50,246 --> 00:20:53,363
Oh, dear. Naughty doggy Dylan.
266
00:20:53,406 --> 00:20:55,966
Do you know what that is?
267
00:20:56,006 --> 00:20:59,999
That's animal behaviour, that's what it is.
268
00:21:00,046 --> 00:21:02,116
Nicolette, I'm...
269
00:21:02,166 --> 00:21:05,795
I'm...
270
00:21:08,166 --> 00:21:09,997
Is Vera Phillips there, please?
271
00:21:10,046 --> 00:21:12,321
- Just a moment.
- Thank you.
272
00:21:16,446 --> 00:21:18,277
- Hello?
- Hello, darling.
273
00:21:18,326 --> 00:21:20,123
- Dylan?
- Course it is.
274
00:21:22,326 --> 00:21:25,159
There was a young hero called Killick
275
00:21:25,206 --> 00:21:28,482
Who marched to the top of a... hillick
276
00:21:29,286 --> 00:21:31,846
He stood legs astride
and whipped out his pride
277
00:21:31,886 --> 00:21:34,354
And spread Brylcreem all over his fillick
278
00:21:34,406 --> 00:21:36,362
What's a fillick?
279
00:21:36,406 --> 00:21:40,081
- Showing your ignorance now, Cat.
- William's will be nice, whatever it is.
280
00:21:40,126 --> 00:21:42,435
Not that you're seeing him again.
281
00:21:42,486 --> 00:21:46,274
- He'll still have a nice one.
- Come here, Vera Bera.
282
00:21:48,686 --> 00:21:51,075
Come on. Come and have a cuddle.
283
00:21:52,126 --> 00:21:55,801
Go on, you're welcome to it. I don't want him.
284
00:22:04,046 --> 00:22:06,844
Don't change, Vera Bera.
285
00:22:08,646 --> 00:22:11,763
You're the star in my dark sky.
Don't you ever change.
286
00:22:11,806 --> 00:22:15,879
- What am I in your sky?
- You're on my earth, Caitlin.
287
00:22:15,926 --> 00:22:18,121
Just where I want you to be. Come on.
288
00:22:18,166 --> 00:22:20,361
Come and have a cuddle.
289
00:22:29,966 --> 00:22:32,275
What are you laughing at? What?
290
00:22:32,326 --> 00:22:33,884
What?
291
00:22:33,926 --> 00:22:35,154
What is it?
292
00:22:35,206 --> 00:22:38,676
What? What?
293
00:22:50,286 --> 00:22:52,595
It's like living with children.
294
00:22:57,166 --> 00:22:59,805
- Oh, God!
- I'm going to the pub.
295
00:23:06,006 --> 00:23:08,076
What's it like having a son?
296
00:23:08,126 --> 00:23:10,082
Oh, exhausting.
297
00:23:11,886 --> 00:23:13,877
I can't imagine it.
298
00:23:14,886 --> 00:23:18,083
He's a whole world away from here.
299
00:23:19,126 --> 00:23:23,119
Safe and sound.
300
00:23:27,126 --> 00:23:29,435
You could die in an air raid.
301
00:23:29,486 --> 00:23:31,602
- I'm not going to.
- You might.
302
00:23:31,646 --> 00:23:34,160
This is not
how I would choose to seduce someone.
303
00:23:34,206 --> 00:23:37,516
My firm intention is to live forever.
304
00:23:37,566 --> 00:23:40,399
- Is that a promise?
- Cross my heart.
305
00:23:51,766 --> 00:23:55,679
You only think you're in love with the poet.
You know that, don't you?
306
00:23:55,726 --> 00:23:58,479
His name's Dylan.
You can say Dylan, can't you?
307
00:23:58,526 --> 00:24:01,677
- So, you admit you're in love with him?
- Bloody lawyer, are you?
308
00:24:01,726 --> 00:24:06,277
I'm not saying I'm the better man,
but I'm not married, Vera.
309
00:24:06,326 --> 00:24:09,523
And you'll admit that gives me an advantage.
310
00:24:09,566 --> 00:24:11,238
I'll admit nothing.
311
00:24:11,286 --> 00:24:13,925
On the grounds that it may incriminate you?
312
00:24:13,966 --> 00:24:16,844
You're trying to provoke me, aren't you?
313
00:24:19,286 --> 00:24:22,483
First love's all right as far as it goes.
314
00:24:22,526 --> 00:24:25,916
Last love, that's what I'm interested in.
315
00:24:25,966 --> 00:24:29,481
Oh, you think you're so damn wise.
316
00:24:48,926 --> 00:24:51,394
- What do you want, Vera?
- Oh...
317
00:24:51,446 --> 00:24:55,325
the moon from out of the skies,
the stars in all their glitter.
318
00:24:55,366 --> 00:24:57,516
What else?
319
00:24:57,566 --> 00:25:01,639
It makes you know you're alive, wanting.
That's what I think.
320
00:25:01,686 --> 00:25:03,517
Oh, I'm alive all right.
321
00:25:03,566 --> 00:25:05,522
Every last bit of me.
322
00:25:08,006 --> 00:25:10,395
Oh! Stay there.
323
00:25:14,046 --> 00:25:16,924
- Right, stay still.
- All right!
324
00:25:18,926 --> 00:25:21,724
Still!
325
00:25:26,646 --> 00:25:29,319
- I'm as good as he is.
- Good as who is?
326
00:25:29,366 --> 00:25:31,800
Dylan. The bugger.
327
00:25:32,926 --> 00:25:37,363
He thinks that I am put on this earth
to nurture his talent.
328
00:25:37,406 --> 00:25:43,003
Cook for him, have his children, clean for him.
That's all I'm here for.
329
00:25:44,206 --> 00:25:47,755
Who's nurturing my bloody talent?
330
00:25:48,566 --> 00:25:52,115
- Will William nurture your talent?
- I'll nurture my own.
331
00:25:53,686 --> 00:25:56,723
Cut off his trigger finger, that's what I'd do.
332
00:25:56,766 --> 00:25:59,326
I would, I'd come up quietly in the night
333
00:25:59,366 --> 00:26:03,678
and I'd tie him down and I'd... maim him.
334
00:26:13,006 --> 00:26:16,442
Look at us. How do they live up to us?
335
00:26:16,486 --> 00:26:19,717
They don't, dirty tarts!
336
00:26:32,166 --> 00:26:35,476
- My brother died for the likes of you!
- I didn't bloody ask him to, did I?
337
00:26:35,526 --> 00:26:38,723
Bleeding conchie! Lick my bleeding boot!
338
00:26:38,766 --> 00:26:40,961
Welsh seamen. You can smell them a mile off.
339
00:26:42,166 --> 00:26:44,475
- I ain't got no quarrel with you!
- Damn right!
340
00:26:44,526 --> 00:26:46,642
What are you protecting him for? Scum, he is!
341
00:26:46,686 --> 00:26:50,361
Get back to your drinking. Now. Go on.
342
00:26:54,366 --> 00:26:58,325
He's right, you know.
Contamination, that's what I am.
343
00:26:58,366 --> 00:27:00,436
I'd stay well clear.
344
00:27:00,486 --> 00:27:05,321
No, no, no. I'm just gonna stay down here
a moment. Just... just a little moment.
345
00:27:05,366 --> 00:27:09,723
- You're lying in piss, Dylan.
- I've had worse beds.
346
00:27:13,046 --> 00:27:15,241
I wouldn't like to get
on the wrong side of you.
347
00:27:15,286 --> 00:27:18,915
Well, see you don't, then.
348
00:27:18,966 --> 00:27:21,082
You bloody warriors.
349
00:27:21,126 --> 00:27:24,914
You're a bunch of buggering yes men.
You don't even know what you're fighting for.
350
00:27:24,966 --> 00:27:28,754
- To live without fear, me and mine.
- Ta.
351
00:27:35,766 --> 00:27:37,324
Oh, God!
352
00:27:39,446 --> 00:27:45,282
Terrified, I am, of not... not doing.
353
00:27:45,326 --> 00:27:49,160
War, see, it's useful.
It gives the terror a focus.
354
00:27:49,206 --> 00:27:52,084
Is she in there? Vera?
355
00:27:54,006 --> 00:27:59,558
All you heroes, you think the women just
fall at your feet at the sight of you, don't you?
356
00:27:59,606 --> 00:28:01,005
You think they don't?
357
00:28:02,606 --> 00:28:06,394
Of course, if I could be born again,
I'd have a word with God.
358
00:28:06,446 --> 00:28:10,439
"Make me a hero", I'd say.
This way is far too much bloody hard work.
359
00:28:10,486 --> 00:28:12,795
- Come on.
- What, go on living?
360
00:28:14,006 --> 00:28:16,236
I've a cure for funk.
361
00:28:16,286 --> 00:28:18,800
- Death, that's the only cure.
- Double?
362
00:28:18,846 --> 00:28:20,962
You offering?
363
00:28:21,006 --> 00:28:24,715
# There was a young poet called Dylan
364
00:28:24,766 --> 00:28:29,396
# Who swore that he never would kill 'em
365
00:28:29,446 --> 00:28:34,474
# When called by his country
to serve at the front
366
00:28:34,526 --> 00:28:37,962
# He said he would rather make...
367
00:28:38,006 --> 00:28:40,679
# Fillums! #
368
00:28:45,926 --> 00:28:48,599
Possessed by the skies
369
00:28:50,326 --> 00:28:55,639
And taken by light in her arms
at long and dear last
370
00:28:55,686 --> 00:28:58,598
I may without fail
371
00:28:58,646 --> 00:29:04,915
Suffer the first vision
that set fire to the stars
372
00:29:07,286 --> 00:29:09,595
Touch her and I'll kill you.
373
00:29:11,046 --> 00:29:13,321
Caitlin's territory, is she?
374
00:29:16,646 --> 00:29:19,080
Caitlin's friend.
375
00:30:10,206 --> 00:30:13,960
# Hang out the stars in Indiana
376
00:30:15,086 --> 00:30:18,635
# Up in the sky of midnight blue
377
00:30:19,766 --> 00:30:23,042
# Hang out the stars in Indiana
378
00:30:23,086 --> 00:30:27,921
# To light my way back home to you #
379
00:30:27,966 --> 00:30:29,718
Here.
380
00:30:29,766 --> 00:30:32,803
- I can buy my own drink.
- Just take the bloody thing.
381
00:30:32,846 --> 00:30:37,158
# A melody just meant for two #
382
00:30:37,206 --> 00:30:39,925
- Care to dance?
- I'd love to, thank you.
383
00:30:41,686 --> 00:30:43,756
Don't worry, they won't get us down here.
384
00:30:46,886 --> 00:30:51,482
# How could I find in things I sought for?
385
00:30:51,526 --> 00:30:54,120
# No wonder they were all denied
386
00:30:56,046 --> 00:30:58,435
# The very happiness I fought for #
387
00:30:58,486 --> 00:31:00,795
- My round.
- Don't be childish.
388
00:31:00,846 --> 00:31:04,725
- Gin drinkers, are they, the children you know?
- Dance. Come on.
389
00:31:04,766 --> 00:31:07,803
I'm an independent woman.
I can buy a round if I want to.
390
00:31:07,846 --> 00:31:10,963
- And a fight, you can have that too.
- All right, then.
391
00:31:12,486 --> 00:31:14,397
After a dance.
392
00:31:14,446 --> 00:31:17,836
# Hang out the stars in Indiana
393
00:31:17,886 --> 00:31:21,799
# To light my way back home to you #
394
00:31:26,246 --> 00:31:29,602
- I won't always do as you say.
- Thank you for the warning.
395
00:31:29,646 --> 00:31:33,434
- I won't.
- Just dance.
396
00:32:09,606 --> 00:32:11,722
Where are you? Mary?
397
00:32:24,086 --> 00:32:26,520
Come on!
398
00:32:26,566 --> 00:32:29,364
- This way.
- I need help over here, now.
399
00:32:37,286 --> 00:32:42,519
Vera! Vera. Vera, you can leave her now.
400
00:32:42,566 --> 00:32:45,922
- No, the pavement's wet!
- No, she won't feel it.
401
00:32:45,966 --> 00:32:48,161
Hmm? Leave her now.
402
00:32:52,726 --> 00:32:56,275
Come on. It's all right. It's all right.
403
00:32:56,326 --> 00:32:58,794
It's all right.
404
00:32:58,846 --> 00:33:01,440
Come on. It's all right. It's all right.
405
00:33:09,006 --> 00:33:13,397
# Have every robin sing a love song
406
00:33:16,046 --> 00:33:20,278
# A melody just made for two
407
00:33:22,206 --> 00:33:26,996
# For in my heart there'll be a love song
408
00:33:28,846 --> 00:33:34,443
# A song I long to sing to you #
409
00:33:44,646 --> 00:33:47,114
I bet you lay this on the ground.
410
00:33:48,486 --> 00:33:52,877
- Why would I do that?
- For all the girls.
411
00:33:52,926 --> 00:33:55,394
You won't get me on...
412
00:34:01,246 --> 00:34:03,316
Those people, William.
413
00:34:05,166 --> 00:34:07,839
- Shh.
- All those people.
414
00:34:16,286 --> 00:34:19,915
You've got a raindrop
running down down your cheek.
415
00:34:21,566 --> 00:34:23,636
Just like a tear.
416
00:34:32,046 --> 00:34:34,116
Make love to me.
417
00:35:30,366 --> 00:35:33,199
No harm will ever come to you.
418
00:35:33,246 --> 00:35:37,239
Not from me. Not from anyone else.
419
00:35:37,286 --> 00:35:39,595
Not while I'm here.
420
00:35:40,606 --> 00:35:43,439
No word of mine will ever hurt you.
421
00:35:44,766 --> 00:35:47,041
That sounds like a vow.
422
00:36:25,486 --> 00:36:27,954
A stranger has come
423
00:36:28,006 --> 00:36:30,679
To share my room in the house
424
00:36:59,286 --> 00:37:00,958
A stranger has come
425
00:37:01,006 --> 00:37:03,440
To share my room in the house
426
00:37:03,486 --> 00:37:05,397
Not right in the head
427
00:37:06,326 --> 00:37:08,920
A girl mad as birds
428
00:37:08,966 --> 00:37:10,957
She has come possessed
429
00:37:11,006 --> 00:37:13,964
Who admits the delusive light
through the bouncing wall
430
00:37:14,006 --> 00:37:16,236
Possessed by the skies
431
00:37:19,446 --> 00:37:23,564
And taken by light in her arms
at long and dear last
432
00:37:23,606 --> 00:37:26,200
I may, without fail
433
00:37:26,246 --> 00:37:31,195
Suffer the first vision
that set fire to the stars
434
00:37:33,526 --> 00:37:36,165
I don't like it, Dylan.
435
00:37:40,006 --> 00:37:43,840
I've another couple of lines in my head
I'm not sure where to put.
436
00:37:43,886 --> 00:37:47,845
- It's not finished, then?
- No, strictly speaking.
437
00:37:49,246 --> 00:37:52,124
Don't write poems for me any more?
438
00:37:52,166 --> 00:37:55,283
It's just a phase.
439
00:37:57,646 --> 00:37:59,716
Come here.
440
00:38:01,206 --> 00:38:04,243
Bring that body back to me.
441
00:39:02,806 --> 00:39:04,364
- Oh.
- Now...
442
00:39:04,406 --> 00:39:06,522
Shh!
443
00:39:16,686 --> 00:39:19,883
- It's a marriage licence.
- Special one.
444
00:39:19,926 --> 00:39:22,076
- No.
- What?
445
00:39:22,126 --> 00:39:25,004
You can't make me.
What if I can't love you?
446
00:39:25,046 --> 00:39:28,675
- I've been posted, Vera.
- Well, that's a hell of a proposal.
447
00:39:30,166 --> 00:39:32,600
I... love... you.
448
00:39:32,646 --> 00:39:35,001
I am not marrying you.
449
00:39:35,046 --> 00:39:39,198
- No. You don't make the decisions any more.
- No.
450
00:39:39,246 --> 00:39:41,157
- Say it. Say it.
- Uh-uh. No.
451
00:39:41,206 --> 00:39:43,401
- Say, "I'll marry you."
- No.
452
00:39:43,446 --> 00:39:46,483
Say it. Say yes. Say yes. Yes!
453
00:39:46,526 --> 00:39:50,280
- Yes! Say yes!
- Yes!
454
00:39:50,326 --> 00:39:53,796
- Say yes!
- Oh, for God's sake, say yes!
455
00:39:57,006 --> 00:39:59,918
My first was Augustus John.
456
00:39:59,966 --> 00:40:02,958
Seduced me when I was 15, the old goat.
457
00:40:03,926 --> 00:40:06,679
It doesn't mean anything, fucking. It's not love.
458
00:40:06,726 --> 00:40:08,956
I get an itch, it's gotta be scratched.
459
00:40:09,006 --> 00:40:11,076
I'd do it myself, only I'm too lazy.
460
00:40:11,126 --> 00:40:14,641
Why bother, when you can get
someone else to do it for you?
461
00:40:14,686 --> 00:40:18,725
- Nothing to do with love, fucking?
- Uh-uh. Nothing.
462
00:40:20,366 --> 00:40:25,520
- Who was your first?
- What?
463
00:40:25,566 --> 00:40:28,558
You don't need to tell me. I know it was Dylan.
464
00:40:30,646 --> 00:40:33,718
We were kids. Tents piled in a beach hut.
465
00:40:33,766 --> 00:40:37,395
- Nice and comfy, then.
- We were children, still innocent.
466
00:40:37,446 --> 00:40:40,279
We are still innocent, me and Dylan.
467
00:40:41,366 --> 00:40:43,926
I only want it as a memory. I don't want it back.
468
00:40:43,966 --> 00:40:45,558
Does William know?
469
00:40:46,806 --> 00:40:50,242
Don't ever tell him.
I can forgive the past, he won't.
470
00:40:54,086 --> 00:40:55,838
The past I can forgive.
471
00:40:59,126 --> 00:41:01,082
You warning me?
472
00:41:15,446 --> 00:41:19,724
- You love William, don't you?
- You have to love someone these days.
473
00:41:19,766 --> 00:41:22,360
You sure you want to marry him?
474
00:41:25,326 --> 00:41:31,356
I've never had a best friend before.
Here. See if I look like a mermaid?
475
00:41:41,366 --> 00:41:44,438
We've a couple of cleaners
who'd be pleased to act as witnesses.
476
00:41:44,486 --> 00:41:46,841
They'll be here, they will.
477
00:41:48,846 --> 00:41:51,519
I'm sorry, we've got couples queuing up.
478
00:41:51,566 --> 00:41:54,319
Sorry!
479
00:41:54,366 --> 00:41:57,642
- About bloody time.
- See?
480
00:42:00,526 --> 00:42:03,598
- Look. Bend down, can't you?
- Three guineas that cost.
481
00:42:03,646 --> 00:42:06,763
How many words is that for
a few feathers and a piece of cloth?
482
00:42:06,806 --> 00:42:10,515
- Where did you get three guineas?
- He wrote a cheque. It'll bounce, of course.
483
00:42:10,566 --> 00:42:13,478
You look beautiful!
Tell her she looks beautiful.
484
00:42:13,526 --> 00:42:15,596
She is beautiful. Come on. Let's get married.
485
00:42:15,646 --> 00:42:19,844
- It was Dylan's idea. He chose it.
- You always did have hats.
486
00:42:29,606 --> 00:42:32,564
Would you mind awfully?
487
00:42:32,606 --> 00:42:37,760
I'm terribly sorry. Purely for old times' sake.
488
00:42:48,206 --> 00:42:51,118
- Sorry, old chap.
- Call of duty.
489
00:42:51,166 --> 00:42:53,077
Carry on, Sergeant.
490
00:42:57,566 --> 00:43:00,399
Oh, treat me right, can't you?
491
00:43:00,966 --> 00:43:03,161
Oh, no, no! I want to give a toast.
492
00:43:03,206 --> 00:43:05,674
I'll squeeze the life out of you.
493
00:43:05,726 --> 00:43:06,875
- Yes, after the toast.
- Go on!
494
00:43:06,926 --> 00:43:08,041
You're killing me.
495
00:43:08,086 --> 00:43:11,681
Oh, go on, you great
Welsh bastard, or I'll break you in two!
496
00:43:14,646 --> 00:43:17,683
To all the things that really matter.
497
00:43:17,726 --> 00:43:20,001
- And bugger the ones that don't.
- Hear, hear.
498
00:43:20,046 --> 00:43:22,037
- Can you please get down?
- Sing, and I might.
499
00:43:22,086 --> 00:43:23,519
- Oh, God.
- Sing, Dullun!
500
00:43:27,606 --> 00:43:33,875
# Myfanwy boed yr holl o'th fywyd
501
00:43:33,926 --> 00:43:41,606
# Dan heulwen disglair canol dydd
502
00:43:41,646 --> 00:43:49,519
# Boed i rosyn gwridog iechyd
503
00:43:49,566 --> 00:43:55,755
# I ddawnsio ganmlwydd ar dy rudd #
504
00:43:55,806 --> 00:43:58,479
It's that old heiryth,
505
00:43:59,486 --> 00:44:02,762
that old Welsh thing
they're always banging on about.
506
00:44:02,806 --> 00:44:05,445
He hates the bloody place, doesn't he?
507
00:44:06,486 --> 00:44:08,204
Who doesn't?
508
00:44:11,206 --> 00:44:15,165
But all he wants, see,
he wants back there.
509
00:44:15,886 --> 00:44:17,877
She's no different.
510
00:44:18,886 --> 00:44:22,515
No, you'll never come between them,
not with them being Welsh together.
511
00:44:22,566 --> 00:44:27,515
- Why should I come between them?
- Course, you've always got me.
512
00:44:31,046 --> 00:44:32,718
Perfect.
513
00:44:34,726 --> 00:44:38,196
"For old times' sake."
That's what he said.
514
00:44:38,246 --> 00:44:41,363
- No harm will ever come to you.
- He'll always be my friend.
515
00:44:41,406 --> 00:44:45,194
No word of mine will ever hurt you.
- I can still have friends.
516
00:44:51,886 --> 00:44:54,639
You're crying.
517
00:44:54,686 --> 00:44:57,200
Dreaming, that's all.
518
00:44:57,246 --> 00:44:59,760
- You're shaking.
- It'll pass.
519
00:45:01,326 --> 00:45:05,319
You'll come back to me. I know you will.
520
00:45:07,286 --> 00:45:09,959
Tell me the truth.
521
00:45:10,006 --> 00:45:12,122
You're hurting me.
522
00:45:13,686 --> 00:45:16,519
I want everything to be open between us.
523
00:45:18,046 --> 00:45:21,118
- And fresh and clean.
- Stop it.
524
00:45:21,166 --> 00:45:23,760
You and your friend.
525
00:45:23,806 --> 00:45:25,797
Tell me.
526
00:45:27,486 --> 00:45:30,046
We were kids, William.
527
00:45:30,086 --> 00:45:34,477
We were on a beach
and it happened, once. That's all.
528
00:45:36,886 --> 00:45:38,717
William.
529
00:45:39,926 --> 00:45:42,042
Tell me you love me.
530
00:45:44,166 --> 00:45:46,680
Come back alive and I'll say it.
531
00:45:47,806 --> 00:45:51,765
Come back to me,
I'll say anything you want.
532
00:45:51,806 --> 00:45:54,115
And mean it?
533
00:45:55,126 --> 00:45:57,765
Come back and see.
534
00:46:12,646 --> 00:46:19,279
# Drifting and dreaming
535
00:46:20,606 --> 00:46:26,795
# While shadows fall
536
00:46:28,006 --> 00:46:35,242
# Softly at twilight
537
00:46:36,006 --> 00:46:42,559
# I hear you call
538
00:46:43,686 --> 00:46:51,320
# Love's old sweet story
539
00:46:51,366 --> 00:46:57,157
# Told with your eyes
540
00:46:59,086 --> 00:47:07,164
# Drifting and dreaming
541
00:47:07,206 --> 00:47:13,156
# Sweet paradise #
542
00:47:23,926 --> 00:47:27,805
- Sergeant, get these men off the aircraft, now!
- Everybody off the plane!
543
00:47:27,846 --> 00:47:30,519
"Of course
you told me because I asked.
544
00:47:30,566 --> 00:47:32,636
"I should have bitten out my tongue.
545
00:47:33,646 --> 00:47:37,002
"You're all I love. You're all my need.
546
00:47:38,086 --> 00:47:40,236
"You're what I see in front of me.
547
00:47:40,286 --> 00:47:43,995
" And if I look over my shoulder, there...
548
00:47:44,046 --> 00:47:46,799
"There, I can see your smile.
549
00:47:47,486 --> 00:47:50,603
" All honour I would give up for you.
550
00:47:50,646 --> 00:47:54,036
"I could accept defeat
if you were by my side."
551
00:48:07,046 --> 00:48:09,435
Vera.
552
00:48:25,726 --> 00:48:29,321
- Do you want me to hold your head?
- Christ, no!
553
00:48:38,246 --> 00:48:41,761
Now you'll get fat
and Dylan won't love you any more.
554
00:48:41,806 --> 00:48:45,924
You're a bitch.
555
00:48:45,966 --> 00:48:49,197
It's the past Dylan loves.
556
00:48:49,246 --> 00:48:51,237
And you.
557
00:48:52,406 --> 00:48:53,600
Doesn't love me at all.
558
00:48:53,646 --> 00:48:56,114
When's William get back?
559
00:48:57,486 --> 00:48:59,477
I keep writing. No word.
560
00:49:01,326 --> 00:49:03,362
Think he's dead?
561
00:49:04,446 --> 00:49:07,279
I'm still getting his pay.
562
00:49:07,326 --> 00:49:09,965
Army wouldn't pay a dead man.
563
00:49:11,486 --> 00:49:14,284
You'll have to stop singing.
564
00:49:14,326 --> 00:49:15,998
I'll sing if I want.
565
00:49:16,046 --> 00:49:18,196
They won't let you.
566
00:49:18,246 --> 00:49:20,476
Not pregnant, they won't.
567
00:49:21,366 --> 00:49:24,881
Oh, I can't do this. I can't.
568
00:49:24,926 --> 00:49:26,882
A mother, me? Look at me.
569
00:49:26,926 --> 00:49:29,156
Well, get rid of it, then.
570
00:49:31,086 --> 00:49:33,964
- It's William's.
- Ah.
571
00:49:34,006 --> 00:49:36,395
You love him.
572
00:49:37,366 --> 00:49:41,245
I hate him. Oh, God, I hate him so much.
573
00:49:41,286 --> 00:49:43,595
Look what he's done to me.
574
00:49:43,646 --> 00:49:48,162
Don't laugh. Don't damn well laugh!
575
00:49:49,126 --> 00:49:53,881
- I can't do this alone. I can't.
- I'm here, aren't I?
576
00:49:53,926 --> 00:49:57,043
- Let's go home, Caitlin.
- I don't have a home.
577
00:49:57,086 --> 00:50:00,556
- Wales, Caitlin.
- Are you insane, woman?
578
00:50:00,606 --> 00:50:04,201
- I've got money.
- What, William's pay?
579
00:50:07,126 --> 00:50:10,357
I've savings. Of course I have.
580
00:50:13,286 --> 00:50:15,675
Hold him! Bloody hold him!
581
00:50:18,886 --> 00:50:23,004
- The whole town will hear you!
- Shut your damn mouth!
582
00:50:25,246 --> 00:50:27,999
- You see this here?
- Yes.
583
00:50:36,166 --> 00:50:39,203
Give it here.
584
00:50:45,126 --> 00:50:47,560
- Don't let go!
- It's only a baby.
585
00:50:47,606 --> 00:50:49,961
You scream if you want to, Vera. You hear me?
586
00:50:59,846 --> 00:51:02,201
"Please write to me."
587
00:51:04,366 --> 00:51:07,483
"They tell us what to write
to our boys, so we keep your morale up.
588
00:51:07,526 --> 00:51:12,680
"It's our duty. Damn duty, I say.
I'm no heroine, you see.
589
00:51:12,726 --> 00:51:16,196
"I'm fed up to the back teeth of being on my own.
It's not what I married you for.
590
00:51:17,886 --> 00:51:20,036
"Come home.
591
00:51:20,086 --> 00:51:25,285
"I've got something I might want
to say to you. Remember?
592
00:51:25,326 --> 00:51:28,045
"You do remember, don't you?
593
00:51:28,086 --> 00:51:30,680
"Come home. I want to touch you.
594
00:51:30,726 --> 00:51:33,798
"Where the rain fell on your skin.
595
00:51:33,846 --> 00:51:36,235
"Damn you for making me feel this way.
596
00:51:36,286 --> 00:51:38,959
"Damn you to hell and back.
597
00:51:40,326 --> 00:51:42,442
" And back, William.
598
00:51:42,486 --> 00:51:44,442
"And back."
599
00:51:54,486 --> 00:51:58,365
Down. Down!
600
00:51:58,406 --> 00:52:00,715
Man down!
601
00:52:11,406 --> 00:52:13,476
No, sir.
602
00:52:18,526 --> 00:52:20,801
Forgive us
603
00:52:20,846 --> 00:52:24,316
Forgive us your death
that myselves the believers
604
00:52:24,366 --> 00:52:26,675
May hold it in a great flood
605
00:52:26,726 --> 00:52:29,035
Till the blood shall spurt
606
00:52:29,086 --> 00:52:31,680
And the dust shall sing like a bird
607
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:37,994
As the grains blow,
as your death grows, through our heart
608
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:39,189
Crying
609
00:52:39,240 --> 00:52:40,229
Your dying
610
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:41,269
Cry
611
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:45,074
Child beyond cockcrow by the fire-dwarfed
612
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:49,511
Street we chant the flying sea
613
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,028
In the body bereft
614
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,636
Come on. Sleep tight.
615
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,353
- I'm hungry.
- Shh.
616
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,709
Baby is sleeping.
617
00:53:28,720 --> 00:53:33,157
It's bloody freezing! Bloody Wales!
618
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,231
When I was little, my da always
used to warm me like this.
619
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,192
- You loved him?
- Adored him.
620
00:53:43,240 --> 00:53:46,516
- I hated mine.
- You didn't hate him. Not hate.
621
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,869
He was loathsome.
622
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:53,277
Pity you're not a man.
If you were a man, I'd fancy you.
623
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:58,197
Don't think I didn't know you were there.
624
00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:00,913
- I didn't.
- I could smell him.
625
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,919
Come here, Dylan. Let Vera smell you,
smell the woman on you.
626
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,428
- Stop it.
- She thinks I should twiddle my thumbs while...
627
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,029
- What? What?
- Don't wake the kids, Dylan.
628
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,038
So where are they, Caitlin, hm?
Where are your little friends?
629
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:18,596
Come on, boys. Out you come.
Feeding time.
630
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,552
Ow! She's killing me! Vera!
631
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:23,556
I will kill you! I will!
632
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:25,397
If I catch you at it again, I will!
633
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,477
Why don't you see to the kids, Caitlin? Go on.
634
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:34,192
- Why do you do it?
- I don't do anything.
635
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:39,588
I do it, sleep with other women...
636
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,234
- Hello.
- Morning.
637
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,556
...because I'm a poet, and a poet feeds off life.
638
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,750
What?
639
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,155
Pompous sod, aren't you?
640
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,192
I do it because she does it.
641
00:54:53,240 --> 00:54:56,471
She always has. She can't help herself.
642
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,034
It doesn't mean anything to her.
643
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:02,868
You don't need William. You've got me.
644
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:06,508
Nothing but you and me with time on our hands
645
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,120
and each other to spend it with.
646
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:18,916
Hello, Daisy.
647
00:55:23,720 --> 00:55:27,190
Come back with me. Come on.
648
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,632
I'll take you back to a time
when we were safe.
649
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:37,708
Where no bombs fell from the sky
and no one died, ever.
650
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:39,990
You can't go back.
651
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:44,591
We can.
652
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:48,148
You and me.
653
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:50,350
It's not real.
654
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,310
It is if we want it to be.
655
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,628
Pity about the poor bloody husband.
656
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:14,116
Off bleeding for his country
and paying for the fun back home.
657
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,350
Don't mind if I join you, do you?
658
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:46,948
Room for a small one?
659
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:53,309
Ooh, wartime luxury.
660
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:10,957
You can drop me here.
661
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,799
Cat?
That looks nasty.
662
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:23,989
Catty, Catty. Cat, Cat, Cat.
