Heartbeat, why do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Heartbeat, why does a love kiss stay in my memory?

Heartbeat, why does a love kiss stay in my memory?

Heartbeat, why does a love kiss stay in my memory?

Heartbeat, why does a love kiss stay in my memory?

I know it's small, but it's what she's always wanted.

Now, this is the sitting room, sliding doors into the garden.

Very posh.

I'll be doing all the carpentry myself, of course.

I'd best get back to work, Alf.

Aye, and me.

Soon as these subcontractors arrive.

They've got all this modern machinery, going to do the cesspit in a day.

Sweet sweet, the lemons you gave them.

You can't beat the lemons you gave them.

Take one fresh hand and lick it.

Sweet sweet, the lemons you gave them.

Have one spoon and lick it.

One girl, one boy, some grief, some joy.

Memories are made of this.

Can't beat the lemons you gave them.

Don't forget the small moonbeam.

Can't beat the lemons you gave them.

Don't hit lightly with a dream.

Your lips and mine, two sips of wine.

Well, now.

Now, I thought you were supposed to be at home in bed with measles.

I'm better now, Mr. Hutton.

Well, I'm glad to hear it.

Does your mother know you're here?

I thought so.

Well, you'd better get home then, hadn't you?

I mean, you don't want to wallop in, do you?

Hold on.

All right.

Hand in, or you can grab.

That hand gets bigger every day, doesn't it?

Right, in your pocket, and off you go.

I'll tell you what.

I think you'd better come and help me in the shed tonight.

I'm planning to take up the track and do a whole new layout.

I can't do a thing without me top engineer, can I?

Off you go, then.

Hi, Mr. Hutton.

Hello, Colin.

Right, set, three, two, both of us together,

one, each end, and steady as we go.

Tried to shift it, couldn't even lift it.

We was getting nowhere, and so we had a cup of tea.

And right, set, three, give us up, Charlie.

Up comes Charlie from the border zone.

After straining, heaving, and complaining, we was getting nowhere.

And so we had a cup of tea.

Charlie had a think, and he thought we ought to take off all the angles.

And the things what held the candles, but he didn't know good will.

And never thought he would.

All right, set, three, two, and... Left your dinner in the office.

Colin's been down, hasn't he?

Andy came around the house, first thing.

It's a nuisance.

Alexandra, answering the door a few times is not going to kill you, is it?

Ah, morning, Mr. Rowan.

Mr. Hutton, Maddow's Kirk station had a break in last night.

A departure board and a lamp this time.

I heard.

Yeah, we don't want Aidensfield to be next on the list.

It won't be.

All them thefts are up to the branch line.

The one that Mr. Beechin and his clever dicks is going to shut down.

Yeah, it's a shame.

Not a shame, Mr. Rowan.

An act of pure, unmitigated folly.

Yeah, well, if you can keep your eyes

open, I'll make sure you look up at night.

Aye, right-o.

Here she comes.

Dead on time.

Tell you what, Mr. Rowan, maybe Dr. Beechin

nicked that stuff from the other line.

All right, said Frank, climbing up a ladder

with his crowbar, gave a mighty blow.

From a city in trouble, half a tonne of

rum all landed on the top of his dome.

So Charlie and me had another cup of tea.

Melon!

And then we went home.

Phew.

Morning, hon.

Oh, I don't know, Maggie.

The other two down with measles, the head

off sick, and this one disappearing when he

should be eating his breakfast.

High time you were back at school, you remember.

Oh, no, it's a quarter to 9.

Go on, Joy, I'll see to her.

Oh, thanks, Rita.

Good luck with the perm.

Come on.

Hey, what's up with you, Colin?

You don't want to miss sports day, do you?

Don't remind me.

Get back into bed and keep those curtains closed.

Nurse is coming up.

There I was, digging his hole, hole in the ground.

So big and sort of round it was, and there was I, digging it deep.

It was flat at the bottom, and the sides

were steep when along comes this bloke in a bowler, which

he lifted and stretched easy.

Oh, he looked down the hole, hole, he meant it so,

and he said, do you mind if I make a suggestion?

You, be careful.

Why don't you go and direct some traffic?

,

Hello, Joy.

I'm on my own, Eileen.

The head would be off on sports day.

Come on, just tell me what to do.

Katie can help.

Ooh, teacher's pet.

Smugs.

Hello, Eileen.

Hey.

Katie, I thought you were watching the boys racing.

She's going to help hold the finishing tape.

I think I've hit some foundations.

Used to be a pig farm before the war, you know?

Get a get up in there and lift the bucket

up, see if we can see what's happened.

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

David!

David?

Quick!

It's OK.

Get me out before it goes off.

What is it, Mr. Greengrass?

It's a flaming bomb!

Go and get help!

Alfred, go on!

Get out of it!

Go on!

Ashfordly police.

A bomb in a cesspit.

And Claude Greengrass is trapped on top of it.

Pull the other one.

Hello?

Hello?

Go on, quick!

Mr. Greengrass is stuck on the bomb!

Leave it alone, son.

Look, go on home.

There's a good boy.

Alfred, Alfred.

Alfred, go... Alfred, go home.

Hey, get him out before he starts this thing off.

Has that been moved, Claude?

Yeah... yes!

Well, don't just go... hey!

Hey!

Leave it alone, will you?

Get the Royal Engineers on the line, Phil.

Nick?

What's happening?

Well, Mr. Greengrass is going to die!

An exploded bomb.

If they don't hurry up, it'll go off.

Keep calm, Claude.

It's probably a false alarm.

I've got to get out!

I've... I've...

They won't be here for at least an hour, Nick.

So what am I going to do with Greengrass?

Well, he's got to keep absolutely still,

and you've got to clear everybody back 100 yards.

All right.

Thanks, Phil.

Right, now we've got to clear the immediate area while we wait for the army.

Can you stay with him so he doesn't move?

I can try.

I'll be back as soon as I've cleared these houses.

I've got to get out!

He... Claude Jeremiah Greengrass, will you stop being such a baby?

Keep still.

People tell me there ain't no use in trying.

Now, my girl, you're so young and pretty.

And one thing I know is true... We need to

move everybody back to the end of the road.

Would you please just pay me?

Well, there's two kids upstairs with measles.

This is serious.

There's a bomb.

Watch my daddy in bed and cry.

Watch his hand, it turns gray.

He's been working and slaving his life away.

Oh, yes, I know.

He's been working so hard.

It's not what you think, Mr. Rowan.

And it's not what he thinks either.

There's a bomb out the back of your garden, Sergeant.

We need to evacuate the house immediately.

A bomb?

I've never felt such a problem in all of my life.

Well, if we can't put the neutralizer on in 20 minutes, it'll be ruined.

Yeah.

We gotta get out of this place.

Everybody.

All right.

Thanks, Maggie.

Those Ellis kids are up there.

All right, I'll go for them.

It weren't my fault Mr. Rowan.

The digger broke, honest.

All right, David.

Shh, be quiet.

What?

I think it's ticking.

No, it's not.

How long are they going to be?

About half an hour.

Claude, even if this is a bomb... What do you mean?

Of course it's a flaming bomb.

It's been here for 20 years without going off.

What makes you think it's going to go off now?

That's how they are, ain't it?

One went off up on the moors and killed three sheep.

All they found was some bits of wool and a foot.

Everybody for the three-legged race.

Line up, children, quickly.

How told you to lose.

A little wee.

By heck, Claude, you are in a pickle.

We're supposed to be keeping this area clear.

And we're wondering about sandbags.

George.

We always use sandbags in the Home Guard.

Why don't you make yourself useful and

take Alfred and this one somewhere safe?

How about sounding the sirens?

I used to be air raid warden, you know.

Come on, Alfred.

I knew it.

I knew you couldn't be trusted.

First right, sir.

I've never seen anything like this.

I'm going to get him off without the whole thing shifting.

Well, there's nothing here, sir.

It was definitely moved, was it?

Yeah.

Right, gentlemen.

It's a bomb, I'm afraid, and a big one, too.

500 kilograms.

It's not ticking yet.

That's not to say that it won't start.

So our immediate priority is to get our friend here off

so that we can start work on it.

Contact base and tell them we need the crash crew.

And if your lot can handle the civilian evacuation...

Yeah, we've already moved everyone back 100 yards.

And it's to be 1,000 yards minimum with a bomb this size.

Well, that's the whole village.

Afraid so.

There's enough explosive in there to blow the whole place to smithereens.

Katie and all the kids are up on the sports field.

Come on, clear off.

Please, don't you leave me.

I've got to go, sir.

All right, Claude.

I'm staying with you.

That's all I need.

I've been in some holes in me time, and this takes the biscuit.

Don't light one of them up.

Where's Nick?

Nick, what can I do?

We've got to evacuate the village.

This German bomb... Well, the whole village.

From the railway station up to Blacksmith's Corner.

Everyone within 1,000 yards of this bomb.

We said there was another bomb.

Right.

Somebody!

Hello?

Somebody!

Anybody.

Sandra!

Sandra, we've got to go to the station,

tell your husband to hold the next train.

We can take everyone out of that, Claude.

Yeah.

Tina, go to the police house, phone the convent,

see if we can use that big haul of theirs.

Can you... Well, the air raid's siren.

Well, go on, Sandra.

And you better stay out there as well.

We need someone to man the phone.

You can take my bike, all right?

OK.

We better get that school moving.

Come on.

Right.

See you around, my boy.

Sarge.

I've had to go to Aidensfield due to unidentified UXB.

Get them down the station as fast as you can.

Phil will organize the parents.

We can't go till you're quiet, children.

Oh, no, what about the other two at home?

What if Rita hasn't got them out?

Oh, look, if you're at all worried, go home and make sure.

But I can't leave this lot.

Of course you can.

I can manage.

I've got Constable Bellamy to help me.

Now, look, go with Nick.

Right then, let's go.

Come along now.

Shoo!

Shoo!

That's it.

Come on.

Right, now, Mr. Greengrass, we're going

to lift you, but we mustn't move the bomb.

Well, we all know that.

But how do you... I've already told you, my foot's jammed.

Try and calm him down, will you?

Officers.

When you move in right up close to me,

that's when I get the shakes all over me.

Quivers down the backbone.

I got the shakes down the knee bone.

Yeah, the tremors in the thigh bone.

I'm going to die, you know.

I'm going to die.

Oh, hell, yeah.

And I'm not even made of will yet, either.

Need you out now, Constable.

Hang on a minute.

I want everything to go to my daughter.

Daughter?

You haven't got a daughter.

I have, in red car.

Just write down that she takes Alfred.

inside of me.

Quivers down the backbone.

I got the shakes down the thigh bone.

Keep moving.

Yeah, the tremors in the thigh bone.

Don't panic.

Don't panic now.

Don't panic, children.

Ignore the silly old man.

Keep moving.

Keep moving.

Don't panic.

It's a bit tight.

A bit careful how you're pulling that.

I've got a bad back.

Here, I thought you told us you were a commander.

I didn't say I was a braver.

A bit of a... Check this, lad.

Yeah, we know that.

Check the string, lads.

Oh, ah.

Just be a bit careful.

Not too fast.

All right.

Hey, hey.

Oh, hey, oh.

Keep moving.

I got a tremor in my thigh bone.

Oh.

Ah.

Shake it all over.

Pick the string, lads.

Steady.

Press.

And not before time.

Steady.

Oh, I feel like a lost Turkey in the window.

It's going to be all right.

It's going to be all right.

All right, come on now.

Come on.

I don't want any more, Santa.

Get up.

I don't want to stop.

That's everyone.

In, in, in.

All right, Mr. Hutton.

Good luck, Phil.

Right, all set then.

Oh, dear.

Come on, stand up.

I can't stand up.

My legs are gone dead.

Be careful.

Who's in charge here?

Right, the name is Blaketon, and this is my patch.

Get back, everyone.

She's ticking.

What does he think he's doing?

What are you, Smith?

A complete wimp?

I was trying to warn the civilians, sir.

Well, get the S set, and for God's sake,

try and pull yourself together, or you'll be out of my team

before you know what's hit you.

Bad news, I'm afraid.

The delay fuse has started ticking.

You mean it's going to go off?

Well, it could continue ticking for as long as 84 hours.

Or it could go off straight away.

You never can tell.

But what about my digger?

Sorry?

I don't want it leaving there if that thing's going off.

Never mind your ruddy digger.

What about my building plot?

I'll need you to get everyone right

back, Sergeant, including that clown there.

That's nice, isn't it?

Close to death, I've been.

Yeah, and you're still out, so shut up and move yourself.

Right, I want all these vehicles right back at the end of the track.

Now, no need to panic.

S set, sir.

Right.

And how are we about to use it?

Immunize the fuse with salt solution, sir.

Right.

Get back on your listening station.

Yes, sir.

Oh, by the way, sir, Smithy's off out bopping tonight,

and he was wondering if you could make it a bit snappy.

Bopping?

Dancing, sir.

Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run.

Don't give the farmer his fun, fun, fun.

He'll get by without his rabbit pie.

So run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run.

Dad, will you be sensible and get in with Claude?

Never.

Those Germans didn't get me in two world wars.

They're not going to get me now.

All right, now, George, follow me.

Keep in full order, that's it.

Now, we'll go right down the end of the room,

and then I'd like you all to come and sit down here on the floor.

All right?

Oh, this is very good of you, miss... mother.

I mean, all this, short notice.

Sorry, but I've never had measles, you know.

It's putting me at risk, this.

Nearly an old age pension.

Good afternoon, Mother Superior.

Uh, these are the children I rang you about, Mother Superior, for sick bay.

And, uh, this is Mr. Greengrass.

He's had a very nasty experience.

He's in shock, and he needs a bath.

I'm not in all that shock.

I had a good wash down last week, honest.

A hot bath and a change of clothes.

Come along.

14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25... should be 26.

Who's missing?

Who isn't here, children?

Can anyone tell me?

Yes?

Colin Ellis.

Well, has anyone seen Colin?

No.

Oh, joy.

Have you got Colin with you?

No.

I left him with you.

How long has he been missing?

All right, I'll go and have a look.

Hold on.

Hey!

What do you think you're playing at?

I thought you were up at the convent.

I came back for the cat.

The cat?

Sandra, that bonger girl is any moment.

Come on, Sandra.

You get on.

Leave it to me.

What am I going to do?

He was never at the station, Miss Leroy.

I mean, I'd have noticed.

Him and me, we're like pals, you know.

I've got this train set at home, you see,

and I let him come in and play with it.

Where is it?

It's in me shed.

But he wouldn't get in there.

I always keep it locked.

Right.

Oh, I just had to stop your wife from going back home to rescue the cat.

Ah.

Well, that's women for you.

Go away!

Is the door unlocked?

I don't know!

Oh, no.

Hey, hey, hey!

It's no good you trying to hide.

If I'm having one, you're having one.

How's it going?

She stopped, sir.

Right.

Let's get cracking.

What's happening?

Can I ring the missus and tell her it's OK now?

Oh, it's not over yet, mate.

This is the tricky bit of screwing the bass plate.

Oh, I could go off any minute.

Hello?

Is that Whitby?

Yeah, it's Gina phoning from Nick Rowan's again.

Listen, we've got a child missing,

and we need every spare man you've got out with the search.

Yeah, in the bomb area.

Yeah, I know.

We're having a bit of a day.

Yeah, OK.

All right, ciao.

Sandra missed the train up to the convent, so I've brought her up here.

Hiya.

Go and sit down, Sandra.

You look all in.

Colin?

There's no sign, Sarge.

It's all locked up.

Colin!

Mrs. Edwards, are you sure he didn't have a key?

No.

But if he's not here, where is he?

Well, out next door.

I'll try the next one.

Colin!

Colin!

Sarge?

We have a corpse found in suspicious circumstances,

and we need to start our investigations while we still have the evidence.

Well, it's a corpse, isn't it?

It's not going anywhere.

It'll keep.

Not if it gets blown up by your bomb.

The last thing I need are hordes of CID men marching around the place.

No, the body stays where it is.

Excuse me.

I don't believe this.

Yes, but Sarge, what he's saying is he

wants to get the bomb off my plot first.

Your plot, Ventress?

The least said about your plot, the better.

Oh, terrific.

Two gallons of Nitroglycerin at least.

That's about 300 pounds of powder.

What the hell's that smell?

Ammonia.

Nitroglycerin. The explosive's decomposed.

Well, what happens now, then?

Well, you may well ask.

Well, we can't steam it out because it's heat-sensitive,

and we can't exactly explode it because it's in the middle of a village.

We'll have to get this stuff out by hand, I suppose.

No dancing for you tonight, Smithy.

Last one we had like this took 29 hours.

29 hours?

One, two, three, four, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve...

Can I have a word, Phil?

Alf?

It looks like that bomb could take 29 hours.

So this lot could have to stay here the night.

Why's everyone going to sleep?

What about the toilets, Alf?

I'm sure that'll be organized.

Jean is having a word with Civil Defense about camp beds.

At Blaketon, he wants you back in the village now.

It's a gloomy night, Gina.

What a mess, eh?

Sandra, I've got your husband in the office.

He's about to come through.

Come on, Joy.

There's 20 men out looking for Colin.

We'll find him.

And now, Sandra, when we were looking for

young Colin, we had to search your house.

And we found a body.

A man's body.

Any idea whose it might be?

No.

You're quite sure?

Yes.

Where was it?

On our bed.

And now we can't do anything until they've dealt with that bomb.

But once they have, you'll be asked if you can identify it.

Your husband's seen it already. He was in the house when we found it.

You were in the house?

Aye.

I told him.

I didn't know the man from Adam.

I told him I'd never clapped eyes on him before in me life.

What's going on, Sandra?

You tell me.

So I'll have to find them a generator.

Generator, Sarge?

Lights, Ventress, lights. Use your loaf. Hang on.

This generator business, er... I think we'll leave you to it. Ventress?

Permission to go back and take a till on the bomb coff?

It's not up to you, Smithy.

I've done it in training.

Take it easy. You don't have to prove out to me, lad.

You're up to him, though, don't you?

Just watch yourself, eh?

- Any luck with Colin? - No.

And no joy with the Huttons either.

But according to Rita Sterling, Sandra's got a lover.

A lover?

Well, that's it. That's the motivation.

What did I tell you, Ventress? It's a creme passionel.

All his cars parked outside their house. A black Morris Minor.

Not a word about this to anyone.

We'll get a confession out of Hutton before the CID arrive.

That'll take the smile off their faces.

Ventress?

Hello?

Colin, you in there?

Colin?

What are you trying to do? Is he all blown up?

I thought you could do with a hand.

He must be mad.

Won't clear off before it infers he's you.

Good luck, then.

As good as done anyway.

Colin?

Colin!

Sarge?

Colin?

Colin!

Well, well.

Colin?

What are you up to, Greengrass?

I was just on my way home.

I didn't fancy staying in a nunnery all night.

Watch this, then, eh?

And what have we here?

Doing a spot of looting, were we, Greengrass?

The old dog daft.

Ventress, search his pockets.

Maddow's Kirk station had a break-in last night.

A departure board and a lamp this time.

I heard.

Yeah, we don't want Aidensfield to be next on the list.

It won't be. All them thesaurods for the branch line.

The one that Mr Beeching and his cleverdicks is going to shut down.

What did they do?

In the car.

Ventress?

It's the ambulance.

Over here!

Bellamy!

Phil, are you all right, lad?

Hang on, lad. You'll be all right. We'll get you sorted.

I told you they wouldn't get me, didn't I? I told you.

Silly old fool.

Look at me digger. It's not insured, either.

Where's Nick?

He's in there looking for Colin.

Colin? Nick?

Nick!

What is it? It's Nick.

He was in there when the bomb went off.

Come here, you duffer!

Sarge!

He's there.

Hold on, Nick. Colin! Colin, are you in there?

Well, give us a hand.

Here. Here. Come on.

Come here. Come here. Let's see.

Let's see. Come on, boy.

Come here, son. Come here.

I've got you.

Well, Constable Rowan, at least you're in one piece.

There we go. There we go.

It's ruined, Mr Horton.

The train set's ruined.

Don't you worry, son. We'll mend it.

The two of us, together.

So what was he doing in Roy Hutton's shed?

He heard the siren, thought it was for him and hid.

They couldn't get out cos someone padlocked him.

Poor little lad.

Anyone hurt?

A young sapper.

Just heard he died in the ambulance.

So... who was he? A fancy man?

Come on, Sandra, you can't make things worse than they are.

Well, Mr Hutton, you may as well tell me what happened before CID arrive.

I think I might be more sympathetic.

I can tell you, Nout.

CID?

Why the CID?

They think I murdered him.

What?

No.

It was his heart.

He had a weak heart.

It's all right, Mrs Hutton.

He was waiting for an operation.

When the police came round about the bomb,

he thought that Roy had found out about us

and he'd just collapsed.

Doctor always said a shot might kill him.

Oh, no.

I knew he was feeling ill and I'd just left him there to die.

What am I going to do, Roy?

Oh, yes, that's right.

Bury your head in the sand.

It's just flaming railways with you, isn't it?

And your stupid train set.

I'm going to get it!

Hey, Ventress.

Go away, Claude.

You know that I told you about the will and that?

About your daughter in red car?

If it's all right with you, I'd like you to forget all about it.

Right.

Oh, and about the pay for the day's work that me and David did for you.

You know.

I'll send you an invoice.

Thanks, Eileen.

What for?

Well, everything, really.

Especially today.

You were a hero.

Hello, Alf. Come in.

She says it's my fault.

Who does?

Mrs Ventress.

She doesn't want anything more to do with it.

With what?

The bungalow.

She's not so sure about me, either.

Oh, dear.

So I wondered, er... Could I spend the night?

Funny. He must have been squirrelling it away for years.

It's not funny, Rowan. It's sad.

Doesn't seem right to charge him somehow.

The man's lost his wife, his self-respect.

If all this lot comes out, he'll lose his job as well.

It's all from stations that are going to be closed anyway, Sarge.

Exactly.

Let's leave it, shall we?

Serves him all right.
