1
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,480
Olive Lilian CreswellHaynes, will you be my wife?
2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,000
I know you played it down
to get him into surgery,
3
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:18,920
but it still is a nasty wound.
4
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:20,040
He won't be seeing
action, again.
5
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:26,960
Matron Wilson.
6
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,120
Sister Steele.
7
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,320
You're back from London?
8
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,480
A death list came out.
9
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,600
Harry was on it.
10
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,320
It was only a matter
of time before the army
11
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,200
sent Syd back to the war.
12
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:40,680
Then I heard the
Red Cross asking
13
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,840
for nurses for the Frenchmilitary hospitals.
14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,480
I'm not much of
a romantic hero,
15
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,080
but I have other qualities.
16
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:52,920
My family can trace its historyto William the Conqueror.
17
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,840
Alice, I think we shouldvolunteer for the casualty
18
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:57,240
clearing station.
- All right.
19
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:58,840
I think a change would
be good for both of us.
20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,280
[sighs]
21
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,240
[music playing]
22
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,320
Checkpoint.
23
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,200
Redcaps.
24
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:38,000
Passes.
25
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,040
Fritz must be about.
26
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,520
We'll be blackout
from here, then.
27
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,800
Oh, he'd love to drop a
whiz-bang on our heads.
28
00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:54,480
I'd love to repay
the compliment.
29
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:02,440
All clear.
30
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:54,000
[SINGING] All that I am, allthat I do, all that I ever had,
31
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,240
I offer now to you.
32
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:05,800
Take and sanctify thesegifts, for your honor, Lord.
33
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:12,080
Knowing that I love andserve you is enough reward.
34
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:26,960
All that I dream, all that Ipray, all that I ever make,
35
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,560
I give to you--
36
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,480
ALICE [VOICEOVER]:
My dear Elsie,
37
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,240
when Hilda and I
left Number 1 to do
38
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,160
our stint at the casualtyclearing station,
39
00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:38,920
the patients gave us flowers.
40
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,240
So I imagine the few
rose bushes in Rouen
41
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,880
are strangely bare, now.
42
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,000
Sister Steele, SisterRoss-King, you're to come
43
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,400
straight onto duty.
44
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:47,280
You men, too.
45
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,840
ALICE [VOICEOVER]: Do
you know where Syd is?
46
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,640
I suppose moved up
and down the front,
47
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,200
as suits the powers that be.
48
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,720
Give him my best
love, won't you?
49
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:05,080
As for me, I am getting onwell in my work, I think.
50
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,720
Though I'm feeling Harry's lossmore than I ever have done.
51
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:12,440
But somehow, I go dumbly on.
52
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,600
Slip of a girl like you aftersome good, honest porridge?
53
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:16,880
Sounds delightful.
54
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:17,960
Thank you, cook.
55
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:18,880
With you in a mo.
56
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,160
[organ playing]
57
00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:23,520
He's at it again.
58
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,640
He wake half the
camp, most mornings.
59
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,840
[laughs]
60
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,240
[SINGING] Creatures
great and small.
61
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:38,360
All things wise and wonderful,the Lord God made them all.
62
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:39,760
[sighs]
63
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:50,240
[SINGING] Each little flowerthat opens, each little bird
64
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,040
that sings, He--
65
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,560
A new parishioner.
66
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,640
Do you-- do you sing?
67
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:02,760
Very poorly.
68
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,560
Oh, well, that
never stopped me.
69
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,680
[explosion]
70
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:10,880
Are we hit?
71
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,200
There's no need to
worry yourself, my dear.
72
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:13,560
The enemy's onlyinterested in the railway--
73
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:14,880
[explosion]
74
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,920
--which is-- well, it's
over 100 yards away.
75
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,880
Do you-- do you harmonize?
76
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,840
[explosion]
77
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:29,480
[sirens wailing]
78
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,720
ALICE [VOICEOVER]:
My dear friend,
79
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:34,200
though I know it's frownedupon to say such things,
80
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,120
this does seem to be the mostdepressing neck of the war.
81
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:42,080
And I can't help wonderingif it's all worth it.
82
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,120
[explosion]
83
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,080
Fraser!
84
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,200
Dear God, Elsie.
85
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,640
Is it here, is it us?
86
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:48,560
Come on!
87
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,880
[bell ringing]
88
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,200
MAN: Allez, allez!
89
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:54,080
Vite, vite!
90
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,440
Madame Girard?
91
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,120
[sobbing]
92
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,560
Madame Girard, we
must move to the cellar.
93
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,120
Hurry, Elsie, hurry!
94
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,080
[explosion]
95
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,000
[screams]
96
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,400
[explosion]
97
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:33,520
Merci.
98
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,160
[speaking french] Merci.
99
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:37,120
Il n'y a pas de quoi.
100
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,280
Couldn't get by without
our cook, now could we?
101
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,720
Comfy?
102
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,120
Tipsy-topsy.
103
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,080
[explosion]
104
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,320
ELSIE [VOICEOVER]: Dear Alice,you wouldn't believe how
105
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,760
adept my French is these days.
106
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:17,520
[speaking french] I am averitable native speaker.
107
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,120
We are moving the wards tothe cellars because of the air
108
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,040
raids, and Fraser and I havedozens of patients between us,
109
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,760
though one's workload canincrease at a moment's notice.
110
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:30,760
Another migraine?
111
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,680
I'm sorry, but would
you fill in for me?
112
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,000
Of course, you
go and lie down.
113
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:38,880
ELSIE [VOICEOVER]:
This is, of course,
114
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,800
an entirely French hospital.
115
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,800
Though, when the push comes,we shall take all comers.
116
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,440
The nursing itself
is very interesting.
117
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:50,960
We're using a new methodfor treating septic wounds,
118
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,040
the Carrel-Dakin.
119
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,640
[speaking french]
120
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,360
ELSIE [VOICEOVER]: There'sbeen no formal training,
121
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:57,800
so I've just muddled through.
122
00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,720
[speaking french]
123
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:00,880
ELSIE [VOICEOVER]:
But our medicine
124
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,080
chef, a very nice
old thing, seems
125
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,560
pleased enough with my efforts.
126
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:09,400
I hope things are well
with you at the CCS.
127
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,240
I haven't heard from
Syd for some time,
128
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,800
but believe he's at theFront somewhere to the east.
129
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,040
I miss him constantly,
of course, but mostly
130
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,040
in the quiet of the evenings--
131
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,400
[airplane sounds]
132
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,960
--which have not been
all that quiet, of late.
133
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,800
Though it seems that tonight,at least, the Kaiser has turned
134
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,960
his attentions elsewhere.
135
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:37,840
[thunder]
136
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,960
The Germans, do you hear them?
137
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,800
I think they've quieteneddown at the Front, just now.
138
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,800
Here you go, Sister.
139
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:46,760
Thank you, Wilson.
140
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:57,720
Bit hit up?
141
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,600
Pneumonia.
142
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,840
His temperature's over 100.
143
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,360
Last CCS I worked at, wehad a bloke that was so hot,
144
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:05,600
we toasted our muffins on him.
145
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:11,120
Don't worry, PrivateGilmore, I won't let them treat
146
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,640
you with so little respect.
147
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,080
Boys of the Bulldog Breed!
148
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,280
Shh.
149
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:16,520
We mustn't let
them beat us, Sister.
150
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:17,440
Shh.
151
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,560
You had supper yet, Sister?
152
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:40,320
Off you go, then.
153
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,640
Cook's really outdone himselfwith the Yorkshire pud.
154
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,160
I closed my eyes and
chewed, it was almost as
155
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:46,040
if I was back in Otago.
156
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,960
Thank you, Wilson.
157
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:55,880
Keep sponging him.
158
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,280
If he gets any worse,
come and fetch me
159
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:58,880
and I'll give him a sedative.
160
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,160
Sure thing.
161
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,440
That's the last of it.
162
00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:19,880
Everything all right
at your end, Sister?
163
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,120
Blood pressure's steady.
164
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,280
Let's get him sewn
up, get to supper.
165
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:26,640
Thread.
166
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,920
I do hope there's some
Yorkshire pudding left.
167
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,960
Cook's last one was very tasty.
168
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,280
[chuckles]
169
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,880
See, it's all in the eggs.
170
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,640
You need plenty of eggs toensure sufficient rising.
171
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,440
Now, a Yorkie that ain'tat least four inches high
172
00:11:45,560 --> 00:11:47,000
ain't a real Yorkie.
173
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,120
My mother's were always
rather rubbery and flat.
174
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,520
Gilmore?
175
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,120
He's delirious.
176
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,120
Can't keep him in bed, andhe's waking the other blokes.
177
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,120
I'll pop it by the stove,keep it warm for you.
178
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,040
Thank you.
179
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,840
[SINGING] I've got sixpence,jolly, jolly sixpence.
180
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:15,680
I've got sixpence to
last me all my life.
181
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,160
Oh, look at that, Sister!

I can't hear!

Where's the night Sister?
195
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:10,160
Where is she?
196
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,520
Here.
197

Sister Earle, are you hurt?
198
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,400
We must get them
under the beds,

00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:16,840
in case there are more bombs.
200
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,320
Some of them may
already be concussed.

Don't leave me.

Have the wards been hit?

Oh god, I thought he flunked it.

tomorrow afternoon.

Parlez-vous anglais?

00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,040
Sorry, love.
320
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,160
Bonjour's all the frog I parlez.
321
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,160
You're Australian.
322
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:42,400
Are you going back up the line?
323
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,560
Yeah, soon as these
nippers are done.
324
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,680
Could you take a coupleof passengers to Fricourt?
325
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,200
Take you ladies all the way toBerlin, long as you got passes.
326
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,400
Passes, of course.
327
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:53,280
They're just in our room.
328
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,640
We'll be right back.
329
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,040
Passes?
330
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,160
Elsie!
331
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,120
We haven't got travel passes,you have to apply for them
332
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,480
from the military police.
333
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,000
I know.
334
00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:06,920
But the assistant provostmarshal's terribly strict,
335
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,640
and Fricourt's practicallyon the front line,
336
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,760
so he's not likely to giveus passes to go there.
337
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,400
I know, so we'll just
have to go without.
338
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,280
Why don't we just wait,get the APM's permission?
339
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:17,920
If we wait, our chance
of getting to Fricourt
340
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,120
drives away.
341
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:20,720
But there'll be
other chances tomorrow.
342
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,480
The army might move
Syd tomorrow, Fraser.
343
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,280
A bomb might drop
on us tomorrow.
344
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,640
There might not be a tomorrow.
345
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,040
I haven't seen my husbandin nearly nine months,
346
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,120

This was German
territory a week ago.

They shelled us hither and yon.
354

And we shelled them
right back, again.
355
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,920
We just leave them there?

When are they expected back?

You want to go to
Amiens straight away?

I've only got 24 hours leave,I don't want to spend it here.
365
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,720
The supply lorry I
came in will be going

00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:12,840
back in a couple of hours.

00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:13,800
I'm not hanging
around that long.

00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:14,720
Allez, on y va.
369
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,320
[bells ringing]
370
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,760
Fraser's happy to bunk in withSister Cuthbert for the night.
371
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,760
And madame Girard baked
us some madeleines.
372
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,560
I can't imagine where
she found the eggs.
373
00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:58,680
Why don't you sit down?
374
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:12,600
[sighs]
375
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,440
Let me.
376
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:30,440
Let me.
377
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,920
[soft music playing]
378
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,120
I still keep track, you know.
379
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,600
Keep track of what?
380
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,360
Everything.
381
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:06,520
Our wedding anniversary,our engagement anniversary.
382
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,120
The day you were
shot in the leg.
383
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,400
The day you were
shot at Lone Pine.
384
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,720
And you were transported
to Alexandria.
385
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,520
When you first sailed.
386
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:21,400
When I first sailed.
387
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:30,360
You have to mark the
passage of the years
388
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,440
somehow, I suppose.
389
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,640
Keep rubbing my head.
390
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,400
Kitty.
391
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:46,280
Kitty.
392
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,680
Here, kitty.
393
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,480
Please, kitty.
394
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:52,840
Sister Ross-King.
395
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,560
Looking for something, are you?
396
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,040
Well, I wanted to give yousome rather pleasing news.
397
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,720
I am to get an award?
398
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,040
You and three others.
399
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,120
And not just any award,
the Military Medal.
400
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,480
There'll be an official
ceremony in a few weeks.
401
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,080
General Birdwood
himself is coming.
402
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,680
This is a marvelous day, Sister.
403
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,840
Let me be the first
to congratulate you.
404
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,080
Thank you.
405
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,840
Oh!
406
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,080
Kitty.
407
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,000
Hello.
408
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:33,920
[meowing]
409
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,600
OFFICER: The Military
Medal recognizes
410
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,440
acts of gallantry anddevotion to duty under fire.
411
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,320
It was created by the King
less than two years ago.
412
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,040
And since then, I have hadthe pleasure and the honor
413
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,760
to present it to manybrave young men of the AIF
414
00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:00,080
who embody the very
spirit of your country.
415
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,480
And now I get to present it toyoung women who do the same.
416
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,680
On the night of
the 22nd of July,
417
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,840
the enemy dropped no fewer thanfive bombs on this hospital.
418
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:18,160
On such an occasion, I wellknow the value of courage
419
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,000
and coolness.
420
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,360
On that night, Sister
Ross-King acted not only
421
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:28,080
with great courage
and great coolness,
422
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,840
but also with great compassion.
423
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:45,920
Your fine behavior has fullyearned you this decoration.
424
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:51,200
I present it to you now withmy heartiest congratulations.
425
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,000
You must be very pleased,they're done very well.
426
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:17,880
I'm very proud.
427
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:19,040
Thank you, General.
428
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:19,960
Excuse me.
429
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,600
Well done, Sister Ross-King.
430
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:27,680
Thank you, Miss Wilson.
431
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,320
And thank you,
again, for coming.
432
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,960
My dear Alice, I wouldn'tmiss this for the world.
433
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,480
Seeing nurses get a militarycommendation from the army
434
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:36,680
commander-in-chief himself.
435
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,440
What a journey this
war has been for you.
436
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:43,360
For all of us.
437
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,440
- Hello, Xavier.
- Hello, Alice.
438
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,240
You're looking very well.
439
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:55,240
Thank you.
440
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:56,640
I thought you were in London.
441
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:57,920
I was.
442
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,800
But you just
happened to be passing?
443
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,120
I was at Rouen, and the talkwas all of a certain Aussie
444
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,120
Sister and her MM.
445
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,520
Tell me of London.
446
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,920
What do you do there,
away from the war?
447
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,840
Well, I went to a
play the other day.
448
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:16,720
A play?
449
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,000
By whom?
450
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,280
Some Scandinavian chap.
451
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,240
Well, I'm not sure I graspedwhat he was on about.
452
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:24,640
Mostly involved the
actors declaiming
453
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,720
loudly about the woeful
state of modern man.
454
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,200
You should pick your
plays more carefully.
455
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,080
Go to a comedy by Wilde.
456
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:37,000
Or a satire by Bernard Shaw.
457
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,240
Come back with
me, and I'll take
458
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:39,560
you to every theater in London.
459
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,920
I knew you were at TroisArbres before I came to France.
460
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,800
I'd made inquiries.
461
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,480
You see, you've been
somewhat in my thoughts.
462
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,040
Somewhat in my thoughts--
463
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:58,760
since Egypt.
464
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:02,960
Not a single dawn has
broken that I haven't
465
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,000
woken up thinking of you.
466
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,960
I've come to make youanother offer of marriage.
467
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,880
I-- I'm not callow, Alice.
468
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,200
I know the loss you've suffered.
469
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,840
And I don't presume,
in the least,
470
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,240
to replace Harry in your heart.
471
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,800
But this war will end one day.
472
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,000
It will end.
473
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:37,560
There's a future beyondthese years of suffering.
474
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,080
I believe we could have
that future together.
475
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,200
My feelings for you
have not altered.
476
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,440
I love you.
477
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:53,560
Please marry me.
478
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:09,560
Xavier-- thank you, but--
479
00:34:13,240 --> 00:34:14,040
I can't.
480
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,920
[somber music playing]
481
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:37,360
ALICE [VOICEOVER]:
And I can't marry
482
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,080
him, Elsie, no
matter that Xavier
483
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,240
is the nicest man I know.
484
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,080
And that he would do
his sincerest best
485
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,080
to make me happy.
486
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,360
I can't marry him,
because two years ago I
487
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:52,960
chose Harry over him.
488
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,680
To return to him now, farfrom making a new life,
489
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,760
we'd be living in the past.
490
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,920
It would be unfair,
cruel to both of us.
491
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,560
So my dear Sister Cook, it seemsyour pal shall end her days
492
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,320

493

[explosion]
494
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,160
Do you have to
go to the dugout?
495
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,640
It's at the railway.
496
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:18,640

497
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:27,600

[wheels squeaking]

[chatter]
502
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:27,880

REFUGEE CHILD: Maman,
maman, attends-moi.
504
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:35,880
Maman.
505
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,880
Maman, attends-moi.
506
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,520
I'll tell you one thing.
507
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,920
If the Germans get here beforeI finish these socks for Syd,
508
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:06,960
there'll be hell to pay.
509
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,760
Scalpel.
510
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:17,120
So they mount the
naval gun onto a truck,
511
00:37:17,240 --> 00:37:20,000
sneak down the railway
line at midnight,
512
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:26,240
then fire a few huge
shells, then depart.
513
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,080
By the time Fritz is awakeand looking for them,
514
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,400
they're nowhere to be seen.
515
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,680
Word is we're
making some progress.
516
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,440
Pushed them back 20
miles in some places.
517
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,120
Picking up POWs left,
right, and center.
518
00:37:38,240 --> 00:37:39,040
More swabs.

00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,400
All right, everyone.
522
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:05,920
Let's get him back up into bed.
523
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:37,880
Just give me a minute.
524
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,800
[telephone ringing]
525
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,840
[speaking french]
526
00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:58,720
Pour moi?
527
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:17,800
Bonjour.
528
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,280
It's me, old girl.
529
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:20,720
Syd, are you all right?
Are you injured?
530
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:21,600
No, I'm fine.
531
00:39:21,720 --> 00:39:22,760
I'm fine.
532
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,360
Oh, God, sweetheart,
I thought--
533
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:25,680
No, I'm fine.
534
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:26,920
Listen up.
535
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,600
Marvelous news.
536
00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:30,960
The Pater and Mother
are coming to London,
537
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:32,840
and he's arranging with
High Command for me
538
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,400
to get leave to join them.
539
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,280
That's wonderful.
540
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:38,520
You need a break,
and your parents
541
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,360
will be so pleased to see you.
542
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,360
You must be there
too, of course.
543
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,320
Oh, Syd.
544
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,360
I'd love to, but I think
my chances of leave
545
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,640
are pretty poor.
546
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,520
Surely you can bespared for a week or two?
547
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,000
I don't think I can, we'reterribly busy at the moment.
548
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:56,840
Yes, but what about me?
549
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,840
I can-- I can hardly goaround London without my wife
550
00:39:59,960 --> 00:40:02,720
on my arm, now can I?
551
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,200
Look, I've gotta go.
552
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,720
I'll be in touch with the date.
553
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:12,160
[telephone clicks]
554
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:21,200
[speaking french] Ma'am.
555
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,160
I've just been
up on the street.
556
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,760
The American troops are
coming in in droves.
557
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,120
Hundreds and hundreds of them.
558
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:34,560
It's a good thing,
don't you think?
559
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,040
If the Americans
are here at last,
560
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,640
surely the war will turn, now.
561
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:43,560
Elsie, don't you think
it's a good sign?
562
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,320
I don't know.
563
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:46,960
I don't know about
the Americans,
564
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,320
I don't know about the Germans,I don't know about anything.
565
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:50,240
I've got work to do.
566
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:15,920

00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:28,400

570
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,240
Hello?
571
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:45,120
Hello?
572
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:53,880
[flies buzzing]

574
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,240
Wasser.
575
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:00,720
Bitte.
576
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,160

ALICE [VOICEOVER]:
They had been there
579
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,720
for three and 1/2 days, Elsie.
580
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,840
Three and 1/2 days withoutwater or food or care.
581
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,560
Overlooked by their captors,forgotten by us all.
582
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,600
And who can blame us?
583
00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:27,600
Every one of the staff
here are dead beat.
584
00:42:27,720 --> 00:42:30,280
But at last, Major Bartoncame, and together we did
585
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,360
those that were still alive.
586
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,400
I'll get transport organized.
587
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:46,400

00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,840
[music playing]
589
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,760
Gott ist mit Deutschland.
590
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:06,720
God is with Germany.
591
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:22,960
[organ playing]
592
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:46,920
Our Father, who are inHeaven, hallowed be Thy name.
593
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,680
Thy Kingdom come, Thy
will be done on Earth,
594
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:50,920
as it is in Heaven.
595
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,400
Give us this day
our daily bread,
596
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,400
and forgive us ourtrespasses, as we forgive
597
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,400
those who trespass against us.
598
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,400
Lead us not into temptation,but deliver us from evil.
599
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:33,320
[sighs]
600
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:39,320
[sighs]
601
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:57,640
Hello, old girl.
602
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,720
Have you had your leave
for London approved yet?
603
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,320
Not yet.
604
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,560
Well, it won't be problem.
605
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,880
Father's going to have a wordto the head of the Croix-Rouge,
606
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,480
pull a few strings.
607
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,480
Now, I've circled the
places we should visit.
608
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,280
Your father's
writing on my behalf?
609
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:16,760
Mm-hmm.
610
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,440
I thought we'd start
with the galleries,
611
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:20,720
then go on to Covent Garden--
612
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,560
I do wish he wouldn't.
613
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:25,520
You're not feeling squeamishover a bit of queue-jumping,
614
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:27,200
are you?
- No--
615
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:28,880
Because you've
certainly never scrupled
616
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,920
to play the "my father-in-law'sSir Joseph Cook" card, before.
617
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,080
Something wrong?
618
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,520
I told you, with
the big push on,
619
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,040
things are very busy at
the hospital right now.
620
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:46,640
They'll be hard-pressed
without me.
621
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:47,600
Hard-pressed?
622
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:48,520
Are you sure?
623
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,120
You're only a nurse.
624
00:45:51,240 --> 00:45:54,400
Only a nurse or not, nowis not the time for me to go
625
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,640
gallivanting off to London.
626
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,480
Even though I am only a nurse.
627
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,120
For goodness sake, I'm notsaying they don't value you,
628
00:46:01,240 --> 00:46:03,160
I just can't believe
there's no one else
629
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:04,680
that can fill your shoes.
630
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,800
And I can't believe youexpect me just to come to your--
631
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:07,720
All right, all right.
632
00:46:11,240 --> 00:46:16,640
It just seems a bit off,
you know, putting your--
633
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,640
what you do, ahead of us.
634
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,280
We don't get many
chances to be together.
635
00:46:30,240 --> 00:46:32,560
I would love to take
this one, but I can't.
636
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,680
I know you need me, but I trulybelieve that right now I'm
637
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:41,760
needed more here.
638
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,240
[sirens wailing]
639
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:01,720
Alice?

00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:03,320
Alice!

00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:04,200

What were you thinking?
645
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:18,760
Standing out there in
the light, like that?
646
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:19,880
Nothing.
647
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:20,840
The Germans could
have seen you,
648
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:21,480
you could have been killed.
649
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:22,400
But it wasn't.
650
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,880
What are you doing?

00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,600

ourselves warm.

Ta, sir.
656
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,520
You know, I've been
wondering if there's
657
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,360
someone watching over me.
658
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:56,960
I've given 476 anaesthetics,and not lost a patient, yet.
659
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,760
No, Hilda.
660
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,000
That's just you.
661
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,320
What do you mean?
662
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,400
I mean, you goose,
you're good at your job.
663
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,040
I see.

00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,480

My beloved Syd,
677
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,480
I suppose by now
you've heard the news
678
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:14,040
that Lille, Ostend, and
Douai are all taken?
679
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,640
At long last, in this,the fifth year of the war,
680
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:21,360
it does seem that thetide may be truly turning.

00:49:25,720 --> 00:49:27,120
ELSIE [VOICEOVER]: Ithink if we had realized,
683
00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:29,080
when we signed up,
that in four years

685
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:34,160
I'm afraid our hearts
would have quailed.

[SINGING] No, nay, never.
687
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:48,040

My dearest, don't
692
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:03,240
let the dark of thislong war fill your heart.
693
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:07,080

00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,840
It's armistice.

00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,360
It's armistice.
702
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,920
It's armistice, Alice.
703
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:36,720

00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:34,280
What do you reckon, Sisters?
715
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:35,200
We did it, eh?
716
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:36,880
We bloody won!
717
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:38,600
Yes, dear, I suppose we did.
718
00:51:38,720 --> 00:51:40,600
And thank God for that.

Thank bloody God.

You know, I don't
believe there is a god.
721

You don't believe in God?
722
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:51,760
You don't strike me as
the sort of person who
723
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:55,320
believes in nothing, though.
724
00:51:55,440 --> 00:52:01,480
I believe in having a go, anddoing your best, in being kind.

00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,480
And I believe in my friends.

So this is what the pricepaid by all those boys
731
00:52:16,240 --> 00:52:18,600
has gained us.
732
00:52:18,720 --> 00:52:21,400
I hope we won't allowourselves to forget them.
733
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:24,200
That'd be criminal.
734
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,200
I can't imagine
ever forgetting.
735
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:31,240
Nor can I.
736
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,720
Alice, Miss Wilson, come on!
737
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:34,680
Oh, no, no.
738
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:35,960
- You sure?
- No, no.
739
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:36,880
Go, go.
740
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,400
Major Springer, would youdo me the honor of a dance?
741
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:47,240
I would love to,
it'd be a pleasure.
742
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:48,200
Here.
743
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:51,640
I won't be wanting him, again.
744
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:52,880
But is it even your horse?
745
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,200
No, but you can have him.
746
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,440
[soft music playing]
747
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,280
ALICE [VOICEOVER]: So
what happened to them?
748
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,760
What became of theseAnzac girls after the "War
749
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,560
to End All Wars" turned
their world upside-down?
750
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:21,520
Smile!
751
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:22,480
Very nice.
752
00:53:26,240 --> 00:53:27,640
ALICE [VOICEOVER]: Elsie
Cook and her husband,
753
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,440
Syd, moved back to Australia.
754
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,200
Syd became Commonwealth Worksdirector, first in Perth,
755
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,680
and then in Sydney, whereElsie raised their son,
756
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:41,560
and opened and ran asuccessful antique business.
757
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:45,160
She became involved in charitywork with the Wesleyan Church,
758
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,880
particularly in support ofwomen fallen on hard times.
759
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:49,560
It was right at the back
of the stores cupboard,
760
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:51,640
but I couldn't have you
leave without this most
761
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:53,080
essential piece.
762
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:54,320
ALICE [VOICEOVER]: OliveHaynes married Pat Dooley
763
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:57,000
before the end of the war.
764
00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:58,720
Pat became a successful lawyer.
765
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:06,560
Olive and he had seven children,one of whom had Down Syndrome.
766
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:11,040
Refusing to shut her childaway out of sight, out of mind,
767
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,880
Olive helped establish a specialschool for children with Downs.
768
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,880
When World War II broke out,Pat re-enlisted and Olive
769
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,800
worked for the Red Cross.
770
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,360
Hilda Steele continued
her studies, training
771
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,200
in London as a masseuse.
772
00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:28,760
She returned to New Zealand,married and had a daughter.
773
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:32,120
But the marriage broke
down after only a year.
774
00:54:32,240 --> 00:54:33,920
She was Sister
In-charge and Matron
775
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,280
at hospitals in
Auckland and Nelson,
776
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,120
then worked in TB
clinics that became
777
00:54:38,240 --> 00:54:39,480
the forerunner of
the New Zealand
778
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:40,880
Community Nursing Service.
779
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,160
Grace Wilson became
Matron In-chief
780
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:49,040
of the Australian Army, andserved in the Middle East
781
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,240
in World War II.
782
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,160
She was president of the RoyalVictorian College of Nursing,
783
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,080
three times president ofthe Returned Nurses Club,
784
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,360
a trustee of the
Shrine of Remembrance,
785
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,960
and in 1953, was made the firstlife member of the Returned
786
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:04,360
Sailor's, Soldier's,
and Airmen's
787
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,720
Imperial League of Australia.
788
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:12,400
And then, at the age of 74,Grace Wilson finally did
789
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,160
something entirely for herself.
790
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:16,600
She fell in love and married.
791
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:24,760
So perhaps it is possibleto make a new life,
792
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:25,960
after an old one has passed.
793
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,360
I met Sydney Appleford
on the voyage home.
794
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:44,120
He was a doctor, and he had beenat war nearly as long as I had.
795
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,440
See that?
796
00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:53,240
You see that over there?
797
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,000
[laughs] What's that?
798
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:56,480
Is that a whale, or something?
799
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:57,880
ALICE [VOICEOVER]: Wemarried in August in 1919--
800
00:55:58,000 --> 00:55:59,400
Must be.
801
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:00,320
ELSIE [VOICEOVER]: And togetherran his medical practice
802
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:01,200
in rural Victoria.
803
00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:05,680
We had four beautiful children.
804
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:21,320
But, I never forgot the otherlife the Great War took away.
