In Korea,
I was Adjutant of the Glosters

when we fought the Chinese
at the Battle of the Imjin.

Almost all of us who survived
the battle were captured.

The treatment that we received
from our captors

came as an unpleasant surprise.

We naturally expected that the rules
laid down by the Geneva Convention

for the treatment of prisoners
of war would be observed.

It soon became apparent that
the Chinese and North Koreans

did not respect any such rules,

but used methods designed to
degrade us and to break our morale

in order to convert us to communism -
for which we were totally unprepared.

We resisted them and they failed.

But we had to learn the hard way.

This film has been made,
based on our experiences

and supervised by an officer who
was with the battalion at that time,

so that you may know the practices
of possible communist enemies

and combat them successfully.

(Hammering)

(Wind howls)

(Shouts command out)

(Adjutant) 'This is a prison camp
in North Korea.

'The year, 1950.

'Many men of the United Nations'
forces had been captured

'after battle with the Chinese
and North Koreans.

'But being a prisoner of war
of this enemy

'didn't mean that the fight
against communism was over.

'It had only just begun.

'This was a different enemy
with different ways,

'and resistance was something more
than keeping the guards busy.

'It was a matter of trying to keep
your mind clear,

'your nerves sound

'and of knowing your friends.

'In communist hands,

'the greatest gift
one man can give another is his loyalty.

'Some were able to.

'Others tried... and failed.

'And some didn't even bother to try.

'In these camps, the daily routine
was not what any POW expected.

'There was no barbed wire,
no machine gun tower,

'no nightly searchlight.

'There was also no Red Cross.

'The enemy said
there was no need for them.

'In communist hands,
everyone was safe.

'In fact, no one was even
referred to as a prisoner of war.'

You are not prisoners.

You are students.

We give you the chance to study
and to learn the truth,

to show you how your leaders
entangle the people in a web of lies.

You have brought
what I sent you for, Thornton?

Read it out.

"The whole squad will attend classes
at the fixed times

"and pay full attention to study.

"Sabotage of study will be regarded
as a serious offence.

"After lectures, the whole squad
will be organised for discussion,

"and a record kept of it
for reporting to the authorities.

"Only the seriously sick are exempted
from attending lectures

"and any other absence
or bad behaviour will be punished."

(Prisoner) What about
the Geneva Convention?

Who's guilty of sabotaging study?

Confess!

We shall discover
the guilty reactionary.

Who's the squad leader?

- Name the guilty one.
- Don't ask me!

Take them back to your hut.

(Wind howls)

...bloody great offensive so we can
all get home for Christmas.

They won't get going till spring.

Are we going to be stuck here
all winter while the British Army

sits on their arses
waiting for the flowers to come up?

They'll keep on sending out patrols.

- Shut up!
- They know about them.

- Shut up, I tell you.
- You've no authority here.

I'm still the only NCO in the squad.

Your rank means nothing.
I'm the elected squad leader.

Huh! Phoney election fixed by them.

- Do you want the job?
- Why don't you two stop arguing?

"Why don't you two stop arguing(?)"

You're making too much noise
for Thornton. Watch it!

- One day you'll go too far, Ross.
- What do you mean?

How far do you reckon we are
from the front line?

200 miles.

That'll be a fat load of good to us,
sending out piddling patrols.

It's possible they'll try one more
attack before winter clamps down.

I want you to take your patrol to
a point overlooking this road here

and watch for any signs of a move -
that's 15 miles inside their lines.

Take enough food to last
about ten days.

About your route back. You'll come
through A Company's lines here.

- Any questions, sergeant?
- I don't think so, sir.

You must make it your responsibility
to see that no letters are carried

or photographs or souvenirs

or any single thing that an enemy
interrogator could make use of

if you're captured.

The only thing you must carry
is your FPW80,

which I hope you've filled in
correctly.

If you're taken prisoner,
hang on to the top half

and have it with you if you escape.

By the way, if you are interrogated,

they won't worry about
the Geneva Conventions too much.

I've been told the best way
to avoid interrogation

- is not to get captured, sir.
- So it is.

And the best time to escape is
as soon after capture as possible.

But if you are taken, remember, it's
name, rank, number and date of birth.

I hope they'll be satisfied
with that.

(Phone rings)

Morrison.

Grid reference?

That's another report of bumping
their patrols.

Don't go bulldozing your way through
tomorrow night.

- They'll nab you pretty damn quick.
- No, sir.

- Will that be all, sir?
- I think so, sergeant.

My corporal will be in the OP
for a couple of days.

He'll guide you to your starting
point in A Company's area

and see you through the mines.
Good luck, sergeant.

- See you tomorrow night, corporal.
- I'll be waiting for you.

You'd better be.

Their patrols are on the increase.

Could be they're deliberately
out to take prisoners.

Maybe.

No one's in for a cushy time who gets
captured by the North Koreans.

- They've got experts behind them.
- Chinese?

Yes, and we know
who's been teaching them.

(Knock on door)

You know why you are here
in front of me now?

- Yes.
- Why?

You want to know who called out
"Geneva Convention".

- Do you know who it was?
- Yes.

Will you tell me who it was?

I can't.

You've nothing to fear from me,
if that's what is holding you back.

This photograph was found on you
when you were captured.

Who are these people?

- My parents.
- Are you very fond of them?

Have you heard from
your mother and father?

No.

They might send you a letter,
and I wouldn't like to withhold it.

Especially as you don't seem to have
many people to talk to here.

We know you're not happy
in your squad.

You don't fit in.

You need more intelligent people.

Not louts like Ross.

- You didn't call out, did you?
- No!

Of course you didn't.
You've more sense.

Now you can go.

Oh, Thornton.
I'll see about your transfer.

It's a good thing I'm soft-hearted.

I doubt if any of my comrades
would have let you off so easily.

(Wind howling)

I hope you kept your mouth
bloody shut, Thornton.

You! Inside.

Sabotage of study is as serious
as all the other crimes

you war criminals have committed.

You would like to kill me,
wouldn't you?

Well, I would like to kill YOU

for all the peace-loving
Korean people you have destroyed,

all the crops you've burned,

all the homes you've bombed.

Do you know how many bombs
have fallen on villages?

Ross!

Who called out
"Geneva Convention", Ross?

Shut the door.

Was it Thornton?

I think it WAS Thornton.

In a way,
I admire him for his courage.

- Thornton didn't do the calling out.
- Then who did?

I'm not saying, but you can take it
from me it wasn't Thornton.

You don't like him very much, do you?

No.

Why?

No reason.

Is he a better soldier than you?

Better soldier?

The...creeping little clerk.

But a clerk can be a key man,

especially in,
say, the briefing of patrols.

The only patrol he's been on
was to the bogs and back!

Do you think the tears
of helpless Korean children,

whose parents lie bleeding and dying,

are any different
from any other children?

Yet, in spite of all the misery you
brought to this beautiful country,

we Chinese can be lenient.

But don't make the mistake

of thinking that
our leniency is limitless.

Now give me the name of the saboteur
who said "Geneva Convention".

There's nothing to say.

Do you realise that all medical
supplies and rations will be withheld

unless we have the identity
of this man?

Yes.

Do you know who said it?

Yes.

Are you prepared to see
your friends suffer needlessly?

- No.
- Then tell me who it was.

What happened to Simpson
for painting Dreamland...?

You don't ask ME questions.

If you think that Simpson
will be punished, you are wrong.

That isn't our solution.

The Chinese policy of leniency
will enable Simpson

to have the time and the opportunity
to realise his error.

This man, too, will be dealt with
in the same way.

Now, tell me who it was.

Me.

(Wind howling)

- Any news of Cole?
- No.

Look what they've given us.
I think I smell fish.

You won't find any in there.

They probably dangled a bit
in front of it.

What are you looking for
in Cole's things?

- Ah, wrap it up!
- Here, this is yours.

- That's not mine.
- Take your feet out the can.

This stuff's not bad,
if you've lost your sense of taste.

Cole say you could borrow that?

Must be some kind of holiday,
if we're getting stuff like this.

It's not a holiday,

but yet another example of the
lenient policy of your liberators.

There can be other rewards for other
evidence of a change of heart.

Your decision to give up Cole
was a wise one.

- Give up Cole?
- Here are some cigarettes.

As further proof of our sincerity.

- You hear what he said?
- "Decision to give up Cole"?

- What the hell is he talking about?
- Who told them it was Cole?

Well, who?

I went through sodding hell
in that hut last night

just cos I didn't want Coley
to get it.

Now he has, cos of one of you.
What's the use holding out here

when there are yellow bastards,
inside and out?

What's the use?
Do you know what I was accused of?

Murdering men and women, making
orphans out of Korean children,

burning crops in a country
I'd never heard of before.

I listened and said nothing, cos as
he went on, I was thinking to meself,

"It don't matter cos the fellas in the hut
are better than you'll ever be.

"I won't tell you nothing
cos they won't, either."

I was wrong. Someone did,
and here we are, eating his reward.

What do you think they're doing
to Coley

while you're feeding
your rotten selves?

Here, anyone want mine?

Ah, he'll get over it.

The important thing is, who squealed?

What have you started blushing for,
Thornton?

Or can we have a good guess, eh?

- Why don't you say something?
- I have nothing to say.

- Oh. Not here, maybe.
- Here we go.

- You've plenty to say in the office.
- Leave him alone.

- Coley's my mate.
- That why you took his mess tin?

Perhaps you knew
he wasn't coming back here.

Well, there's no point
in leaving them on the floor.

- Just get eaten by the rats.
- Looks like they've already started.

Thornton, come.

Why don't you move in over there?

They wouldn't have to keep on
calling for you.

I'd like to know what he's going
to start telling them now.

Sit down.

Put it on the bed.

How do you like your new squad?

You must be glad
to be away from Ross.

I'm not with a new squad!

Hasn't your transfer come through?
I must speak with them in the office.

How interested are you
in working for peace?

I'd rather have peace than war,
if that's what you mean.

So I see.

Do you like apples? Take one.

Thank you.

You were working for peace
before you joined the army.

Why not finish
what you set out to do?

What do you mean?

Weren't you active in the
International Students Movement?

- How did you know I was a member?
- I have all the details here.

When you joined,

the fact that you were three months
behind with your subscription

when you went into the army,

your membership number,
the number of meetings you attended,

the questions you asked -
it's all here.

But how?

Because you and I were working
for the same cause.

- But you're a communist!
- And so are you.

You mean the ISM
is run by the Communist Party?

Like all the great movements
promoting peace.

We have the backing of intelligent
people all over the world -

writers, doctors, artists,
school teachers, scientists.

But what will happen to me
if the others find out I'm a...?

Ross won't know, unless you tell him.

Anyway, you'll be transferred
to a more sympathetic squad.

Right now, though, I need your help.

For what?

I need the name of
the Battalion Intelligence Officer,

- just to complete a form.
- Lieutenant Morrison, do you mean?

- What's he like?
- Decent enough.

- Who works with him?
- A corporal.

Do you know him?

- Yes.
- How well?

He was my friend.

Did you go to his home?

Yes. We used to listen
to his discs there.

- What discs?
- Modern jazz.

Do you like classical music?

Some.

- What was his home like?
- Quite all right.

Very nice.

How did he get on with his parents?

Very well.

Has he any brothers and sisters?

He's got a younger brother, Alan.

- How old's he?
- He'd be about ten now.

What else did you and your friend
have in common, besides discs?

We seemed to like
the same sort of jokes.

- Did you go to his home often?
- Yes, he lived near the camp.

What is your friend's name?

Daniels.

- What is your rank?
- Corporal.

What is your job?

This will be of no use to you.

What is your job?

I'm only allowed to give you
my number, rank and date of birth.

"Allowed"?
What do you mean "allowed"?

- Those are my orders.
- Who gave you those orders?

I can't answer that question.

You have surrendered yourself to us
and are now under our orders.

You will give me the following names.

Who is the sniper?
Who is the Adjutant's clerk?

Who is the Signaller?
Who is the Intelligence Sergeant?

I can't give you an answer
to any of those questions.

When your A Company's position
was taken over

by our victorious People's Army,

a group of men was seen running
into the darkness.

They are behind our lines now
and will be caught.

You will tell me about them.

I was too busy fighting
to see anybody.

Your stupid and reckless behaviour
with a machine gun

enabled them to get away.

Were you giving them
deliberate cover fire?

I was too busy fighting
to see anybody.

You will gain nothing
by being stubborn.

Now, go.

Sit alone and consider your position.

(Heavy gunfire in distance)

- Where are you wounded?
- My back. It hurts.

I can't move my legs. Help us get up.

I can help you if you help me.

You will have medical attention
and a doctor,

if you tell me about the five men
seen running into our lines.

- They're a patrol.
- Where were they going?

I don't know.
I only heard they're a patrol.

- What about seeing a doctor?
- Who said anything about a doctor?

- But you promised.
- You are mistaken.

(Gentle sobbing)

Halt!

Now we're all in a camp,
things'll be better.

Think so?

(Guard) Listen! Listen!

Look son,
I know all about prison camps.

I had four years in them
in the last lot.

These are not the Germans.
They're not the Japs, either.

Nobody knows yet what they're like.

Ah! Don't be such
a bleedin' pessimist.

(Speaks in own language)
Stop talking!

This new batch of prisoners.
Is there anyone you know?

- No, there's no one.
- Are you sure?

Yes.

You and I are working
for the same cause.

It would be very awkward for you
if the others got to know.

Are you positive
there's no one you know?

Yes.

Is he the Intelligence Corporal that
works with Lieutenant Morrison?

- Yes.
- Point him out.

- Seventh from the right.
- Is that the truth?

- Yes.
- You will stay until I come back!

- My name's Daniels.
- What's the news?

Any chance of them coming down
the road next week?

Look, I just walked
getting on for 150 miles.

- What mob are you from?
- Mind if I sit down?

This is where we live.

Is this it?

You sleep standing up the first week.

They've chucked
the questionnaire at you?

We've all had to answer them.

"Social status?
Educational background?

- "Motive for enlistment?"
- Same old questions.

"Acquaintances with officers?

"State of family?" What are they
running, a marriage bureau?

If you give them monkey answers,

you'll find yourself filling up
another and another.

And if they don't tally,
you've had it.

"Party affiliations? Thoughts?
Opinions of war?"

They can't expect me to fill this in.

I don't advise you
to stick your neck out here.

- What does that mean?
- You'll find out.

Come on, let's drop it.
Give us some news.

What's the newspaper you've got?

- I'll have it next.
- It's four months old.

- Four months?
- The Daily Worker?

- What are you doing reading this?
- It's the only one we get.

- And you read it?
- Well, wouldn't you?

- You don't believe what's in it?
- Why not?

You saw their surrender leaflets.

You didn't walk across
with your hands up, did you?

Look, let me give you a few tips.
Shift over.

- I felt like you at first.
- So?

You'll cool off
when you've been here a bit longer.

I don't know what that means.
Reading this and filling these in...

You can't fight them here.

Why not? Either you're for them or
against them. There's nothing else.

Is there?

That's what happens
when you're against them.

- What's happened to him?
- He's taken a hammering.

- Who from?
- Someone up the cleaners.

Cleaners?

Where you get your head bashed in
while you wait.

- Why?
- Cos he said...

Ask him!

Les Thornton!
I didn't know you were here.

- Hello, Harry.
- You know him?

We were stationed in the same camp.
Brought any discs with you?

- What's all this, eh?
- They want the form filled up.

They can wait.
We've got lots to talk about.

I'm supposed to take it back.

- You like it over at the office.
- Let him alone.

Why don't you tell your friend
why Cole got beaten up?

- Go on. Tell him.
- Tell me what?

Tell him! "Cole's like that
because I got him taken away."

Go on. Tell him!

Have you gone barmy?
There was you with the Daily Worker.

- Tell him who informed on Cole.
- I don't know.

- He's lying.
- Are you saying it was him?

Yes, I am.

- Did you inform on Cole?
- I didn't.

- He's lying.
- Where's your proof?

What more do you want? Nobody else
would have given him away.

- He's our mate.
- That's all the proof you need?

I never told them it was Cole. They
asked me, but I never told them.

- How do you know anybody informed?
- We were told.

- Who by?
- The hunchback.

The camp commandant.

You'd believe a communist
before one of your own?

- Cole might have confessed.
- Why don't you ask him?

I'm going to.

He's dead!

The communist wants peace.

What about your people at home,

your mothers and fathers, your wives?

Don't they want peace?

Don't they want you back with them?

Don't you want to be
back with them?

It is the United Nations
who are aggressors here,

and their atrocities
will never be forgotten.

Their bombs raining down
on helpless villages.

And it is we who are accused
by the United Nations of atrocities.

Us.

If you know of any, you must tell us.

I've seen them.

I've seen your soldiers keeping us
from attending our wounded.

I've seen them leave men to die
from hunger and thirst.

- I've seen plenty of atrocities.
- Lies!

Give me the name of the soldier
who stopped you helping the wounded.

How the hell can I?

I can't even speak the lingo. You think
he'd have given me his name?

You are a liar!

These helpless villages,
they're barracks and munitions depots.

The so-called People's Army turn
everybody out of their homes

and move in just like that -
I saw it on the way here.

What about this village?

What happened to the people
who lived here before they took over?

Sure they want peace(!) They want it
so bad they have to murder Cole...

We just sat here and did nothing.

(Wind howling)

Sit down on the floor.

Turn round.

With your legs crossed.

And arms folded.

You will remain that way
all day and every day.

When you have come to appreciate
your wise and lenient treatment

by showing your penitence
for your filthy crimes,

the opportunity will not be
withheld from you

for making a full
and truthful confession.

(Gives command in own language)

(Shouts command)

(Thud)

(Speaking in own language)

(Guard) Quickly!

- (Daniels mutters) Yeah, shut up!
- Quickly!

(Guard repeats orders)

Well, if you don't reckon
it's worth eating, I won't touch it.

You've been brought up on it.

I don't want to grow up
looking horrible, like you!

- (Guard shouts command).
- Thank you very much.

(Shouts command) Hoejeonsikida.

And if that's good night,
hoejeonsikida to you, too.

- (Shouts command)
- Learn the lingo.

(Shouts command)

Shut bloody up, you illegitimate son
of Madame Butterfly.

(Repeats command)

For you, darling,
I'll try sleeping on me left.

See you in the morning.

Daniels, wake!

Daniels, wake!

Wake, Daniels! Come on.
Come on. Wake!

Get up.

(Shouts command)

I thought it was time to get up.

The policy of the People's
Volunteers towards war criminals

can be one of leniency
or suppression.

- The choice is yours alone.
- I'm not a criminal.

Stand to attention.

You will give me every name
in your subversive group.

Confess your crimes.

I haven't committed any crimes.
You're wasting your time.

Are your sympathies with
the Chinese People's Republic?

- No.
- You are a self-confessed criminal.

I am not.

If you have no sympathy with
the Chinese People's Republic,

then you must be against it.

- I'm a soldier.
- You are a war criminal.

Only the Chinese and
the North Korean people are soldiers.

You have come to Korea
to take part in an aggressive war.

Therefore, you are a war criminal.

You have been engaged
in subversive activities

to overthrow the authority
of the People's Government.

I have not been engaged
on subversive activities.

We can prove it.

Then bloody well prove it
or let me sleep!

He's cracked. Subversive activities?
He's definitely cracked.

(Guard shouts command)

- Ah, shut your gob!
- Sit! Sit!

(Groans)

(Door closes)

I can't just sit here doing nothing.

You know what talking to yourself's
the first sign of.

Thinking about home too much
is going to make me morbid,

so I'd better ration meself
to a bit each day.

If I had something to lean against
it'd be a bit more comfortable.

(Guard shouts out)

There used to be a game we'd play
as a kid, something like this.

Somebody turned his back,
then we used to try and get to him.

Then he'd turn round quick
to see if we were moving.

How do you do?

"Something" footsteps.

"Something" footsteps.

Playing it on the pavement outside
the flat seemed more real than this.

Grandma's footsteps, that was it.

Wonder what's happening right now
at home.

(Guard) Back! Back! Quickly! Quickly!

(Sighing) You are my heart's delight!

And where you are, I long to be.

(Wind howling)

Hi, hi, hi!

(Bangs door)

(Boots creaking)

Now look at you! You've put your
effing plates all over Yorkshire!

(Door shuts)

If you're going to keep me up,
I may as well make use of it.

(Groans)

Hey! Where have you gone to?

Hey!

(Shouts command)

- I want the lavatory.
- (Shouts command)

Lavatory!

Let me out of here. You know
what a lavatory is, don't you?

No, perhaps you don't.

Until you confess to
all your subversive activities,

you will be kept there to rot.

You are there to repent and you will
only be taken out when I say.

Or when you are dead.

I know what your trouble is!
You're all bloody well constipated!

(Rain hammers on metal roof)

Up! Up! Up! Up!

Hi, hi!

- (Gives command)
- Daniels, come!

(Groans gently)

I've brought you here
to see how you're getting on.

Why don't you sit down?

I... I've been sitting, thank you.
I'd rather stand.

Of course you have.
How thoughtless of me.

How are you feeling?

Oh, fine.

You don't have to pretend to me,
you know.

Although I haven't experienced it
myself, I have seen the effects

of sitting still for 16 hours and then
not being allowed to sleep at night.

Yeah.

It can send better men than you
quite mad.

Are you afraid of going mad, Daniels?

Not particularly.

You know, there is no need
for these discomforts.

No?

No. All you have to do
is answer my questions.

Will you answer my questions?

It all depends on the questions,
doesn't it?

They won't be too difficult,
if that's what's worrying you.

No, on second thoughts

I think you'll be able to answer
them better after some sleep.

What's happened to old sweat-face?

This smooth character,
is he his superior

and ordered them
to lay off me for a little?

At least he didn't spout any of that
"subversive activities" tripe.

Careful, though, friend.

You'll begin to think
this one's quite decent.

(Footsteps approach)

OK.

You have been guilty of another crime
against the People's Volunteers.

I find you asleep.
What have you to say?

- I was told to sleep.
- You are lying.

I gave no such orders.

- It wasn't you. It was the other one.
- There is no other one.

(Thinking) 'Hey, wait a minute.

'That smaller one said
you could sleep.

'You're not going Harpic.'

Sit as you were first told.

You have confessed to one crime.

Now you must confess to all the
other crimes you have committed,

including those you were guilty of
before you surrendered.

- We already have the facts.
- Your facts are wrong.

(Thinking) 'What facts could he have?

'So, I interrupted
the political lecture. What else?

'What crimes before I came here?

'Being in Intelligence isn't a crime.
Anyway, he doesn't know.

'Unless somebody told him.'

...activities are known to us,

but because of
the traditional policy of leniency,

you will be given the opportunity
to expiate your crimes.

I'm not a criminal.
I'm a prisoner of war.

And as such, I'm entitled to the
protection of the Geneva Convention.

(Guard's voice echoing)
You came here to spy-spy-spy-spy.

And the penalty for that
is death-death-death-death...

(Shouts command)

(Woman) 'Harry.

'Your father and I tried our hand
at wallpapering last weekend.

'Although I say it myself, the front
room doesn't look at all bad...'

You must confess
to all your subversive activities.

- I have nothing to confess.
- But you came here to spy.

And the penalty for that is death.

I'm not a spy! I'm a British soldier.

Why are you in Korea? Why have
you come to this beautiful country?

We have all the facts.
You came here as a spy.

This is your work,
and the penalty for spies is death.

(Woman) 'Your last letter was
very welcome, Harry.

'Your father and I are glad
you've got a new job.

'I hope it's more interesting
and what you want.

'You make it sound
very mysterious, though!'

What new job?

I said you would be shot,
and so you will. Here.

No one will know. We are far from
the camp and there will be no grave.

You'll have to answer to murder.

Who to? All spies are shot. That is
understood all over the world.

I'm a British soldier and entitled
to be treated as a prisoner of war.

You are a spy.

Working in Intelligence
is not being a spy.

Huh! Did I say you were
in Intelligence?

Where did you get that idea from?
Not from me.

Tell us what you know about patrols.

You must let me sleep first
and give me some food. I...

I'm too tired.
I can't think straight.

Let me sleep and then
I'll write it all out for you.

(Gives command)

I've finished. It's all there.

Read it out loud.

You want to study it first. It's got
drawings and positions marked.

I shall do that later.
First, you will read it, comrade.

"The night before I was captured I was
on duty when a patrol was sent out.

"The instructions given
by the officer were as follows:

"When you go down to the woods today,
you're in for a big surprise.

"When you go down to the woods today,
you'd better go in disguise.

"For every bear that ever there was
will gather there for certain.

"Because today's the day the Chinese
and North Koreans have their picnic.

"Picnic time is time for play."

(Russian guard) Yes, I see.

Well, it's very simple.
You know what to do.

Daniels.

(Shouts command)

(Shouts command)

(Prisoner) Move your arse!
You're blocking the view!

Come in!

Come in!

- (Guard shouts)
- Oh, shut up!

- I'm not...
- Inside.

Quickly.

(Prisoner) Oh! Look who is here!
Ha-ha!

- (Guard shouts)
- All right, all right.

(Whispers) Welcome to
the Kennel Club.

- How long have you been here?
- Ssh!

Since we arrived,
but don't let them hear you.

(Guard shouts)

(Footsteps move away)

- Hey, I say!
- Yeah.

This lot's barmy, you know.
They're right round the bleedin' bend.

- You tell them that?
- Huh!

There's a lot wrong with Britain

but I don't want any bloody
foreigner telling me that.

All that "dupes of war-monger" stuff.

"You're the dupes," I said.

I tell them that
when I was in German hands,

- I never had to listen to this...
- (Guard shouts)

(Footsteps move away)

Is anybody else in here?

A fella called Simpson WAS here,
but he's gone now.

Over there's a stool pigeon.

I expect they'll keep you in here
quite a bit.

Don't think so, somehow.

I'm going to have a snooze
before they come again.

Sleep's the prisoner's friend,
they say,

and waking up's his enemy.

(Shouts command)

(Daniels whispers) Hey, thanks.

Thanks.

Don't let them get you down!

(Shouts) Every time they hit you
only proves how wrong they are!

You are guilty of many serious crimes
against the People's Army.

This latest one is the most serious.

For all your crimes, you will be
sentenced by the authority

of the People's Court.

If you confess in a truthful manner,

then their traditional leniency
will make itself apparent.

There is another way in which
you can show your sense of shame,

and that is by answering in a truthful
manner the following questions.

My report on your behaviour
will be read out in the court.

(Daniels sniffs)

The list of your crimes is long.

You have spread anti-communist
propaganda amongst your comrades.

You have lied in your questionnaire.

You have sabotaged property
belonging to the People's Army.

You have, as a result of this,
deprived your peace-loving comrades

of the opportunity
of learning the truth.

You have accused the People's Army
of acts of cowardice

and spread filthy lies

about atrocities towards
the peace-loving people of Korea.

You have insulted an officer
of the People's Army who,

because of the great and traditional
goodwill of the Chinese people,

spared your life,

when he was within his rights
under rules observed by every country

to have you shot as a spy.

- I am not a spy.
- (Chuckling) Young man!

You have already admitted
that you work in Intelligence

and that is spying.

Do you deny there are patrols behind
the lines of the People's Army?

Do the United Nations
send out patrols?

Of course they do. So do your lot.
So does every army.

What are they for, these patrols?

To see how the land lies.

And what is that,
if it is not spying?

Soldiers are not spies.

What is the name of your
superior officer in Intelligence?

- I cannot answer that.
- Why not?

I will not answer any questions
on military matters.

- But you already have.
- I have not.

But you have.
We know your name,

your rank,
your number.

And you have
confessed

that you work in
Intelligence.

You see, I know

a great deal
about you, Daniels.

Do you think
of yourself

as a brave man?

Not out of
the ordinary.

I don't want
them to use

any more
pressure.

You can
save yourself

a great deal
of discomfort.

It's up to you.

But I want
the answers

to my questions

and I want
them now.

Who's your
superior officer

in Battalion Intelligence?

(Thinking) 'How the hell does he know
I was in Battalion Intelligence?'

- I'm waiting.
- 'Then wait a bit longer.

'Who could have
told him?

'Is he guessing?'

I am not able to
answer any matters

dealing with
military personnel

or equipment.

Is that what
Lieutenant Morrison

told you
to answer?

'Morrison? He knows
it was Morrison!'

You see,
I know the name.

Are you surprised?

'Think boy.
If you say no,

'you're admitting
it was Morrison.

'If you say yes,
it's the same thing.'

Shortly before
you surrendered,

a patrol
infiltrated our lines.

Where was that
patrol to go?

Where was
that patrol to go?

'Give yourself time.
Make the answer nice and long.'

I cannot answer any question relating
to the whereabouts of patrols.

You are a very foolish young man.
Your life is in immediate danger.

What you have been through so far
is nothing,

compared with what
you will be made to suffer

if you do not give them
the following information.

Where the patrol was to go.
How many men were in the patrol.

What its route out was
and what will be its route back.

What the job of the patrol was,
how long it was to be out

and whether they had a radio.

Now...

You will give me these answers

or else you will never see
your mother and father again.

Or your brother, Alan.
Or listen to your jazz.

You will never lead
a normal life again,

should they return you
to your country.

By the time they have finished
with you, no one will recognise you,

and you will recognise no one,
for you will be both blind and deaf.

'Who's been talking? How do they
know about my kid brother and jazz?'

I want your answers now.

I've already told you...

'Slowly! Slowly. Take your time.'

I don't intend to divulge anything
which might prejudice the security

of the United Nations' forces,

and my duty as a soldier
is to resist the enemy.

You are no longer a soldier and
the communists are not your enemy.

Then why have you tied me up?

So you can be helped
to see the truth.

Ugh!

We're not going to punish you.
We're going to cure you.

My colleague tells me
you like to drink water.

Well, water is our medicine.

As soon as you show yourself
cooperative,

then you will be cured.

Tell me what I want to know
about the patrol.

'They must have something big coming
if he's worried about a patrol.'

You can go and...

'This is their torture chamber.

'What's he giving me
drinks of water for?

'And why the towel?'

'If they're not careful,
they're gonna choke me.'

(Spluttering)

'Oh, my God! That's why I'm here.'

(Coughing)

You must tell me about the patrol.

Where it was to go,
how many men were in it,

the route out and back of the patrol,

what it had to do
and for how long and if it had...

'He's probably fried if I don't talk.
I'm not going to save HIS neck.'

Tell me what I want to know
and this will stop.

- If you continue...
- 'I'll tell him.

- 'After the next lot of water.'
-...give me what I want.

'You bastard! You bastard!
And you've got to tie me up to do it.

'I'm not that bloody helpless.'
(Splutters)

'I won't give you what you want.

'One more lot of water. One more lot
of water and I'll tell them.

'I'll tell them...'
(Spluttering)

'After the next lot,
I'll do what they want.

'One more lot of water
and I'll HAVE to tell them.

'Next time, that's it. Next time I'll tell
them everything they want to know.

'Then they'll stop the water.
I can't take any more.

'Each time it proves how wrong
they are. Each time he hits you...'

Tell me!

'Each time he hits you
only proves how wrong they are.'

- Give me the answers!
- 'Proves how wrong they are.

- 'Each time he hits you...'
- Now!

'Each time proves...'

(Coughing)

Agh!

You can go. And then I shall send
for you for another drink of water.

When I send you back, you will be
face-to-face with your friend,

who is to blame for all this.

(Coughing)

(Coughing)

(Coughing)

Are you OK?

The water, eh? You'd better get
those wet things off.

- What are they up to?
- Working out a peace petition.

Let's have a look.

Hey!

"We the undersigned have been duped
into joining the war in Korea

- "and ask..."
- "Implore" would be stronger.

"...not to place any obstacle
in the way of peace-loving Chinese

"and North Korean people."

That ought to be good for a few fags.
What do you think you're playing at?

You going to let yourself be
walked over like that?

You can write it out again.
I'm not going to.

- What's this about an armistice?
- Peace talks have started.

- What's up, Thornton?
- I've forgotten something. I'll be back.

(Door slams)

Open the door.

What have you seen that makes you
so scared? Daniels here?

- Leave him alone, Ross.
- Look at him.

Why didn't you expect to see him?

- What have you been telling them?
- Let him go!

Stand by the door.

He's not leaving here until I know
once and for all he's been talking.

(Coughs)

- Come away from that door.
- Stay there!

He's not getting out
until he tells us the truth!

- You listen to me, Ross.
- You keep out of this, Daniels.

I've had a belly-full of that kind
of talk. You sound like they do.

That's what they said to me. "You won't
leave till you tell the truth."

What are you going to do?
Work him over?

Away from there.

Come away from there, Daniels,
or else you'll get it, too.

I'm warning you. We've had just
about enough of your "friend".

If anybody's got more right
to do Thornton, it's me.

But I knew him
before you did, Ross.

He was a decent enough fella
and a good friend.

He can't shove his weight about and
doesn't go round effing and blinding.

I know what he does go around doing.

Because you couldn't understand him,
you pushed him outside your circle

and that's just what
they're waiting for.

Would you like to be
on the outside, Ross?

Would any of you?

- He didn't have to work for them.
- There's no excuse for that.

I didn't say there was.

That's something he'll have
to live with the rest of his life.

You're not free from blame.
You put your name to this.

Every time you take a few fags for
a favour, you're working for them.

By turning on Thornton,
you're doing exactly what they want.

They're out to break you up,

turn friends into enemies,
it's the only way they know.

There's only one way to beat them
out here - be better than they are.

And look at yourselves.

What would happen if the RSM
walked in now?

He'd do his bloody nut!

Daniels, you come.

You know what to do with those.

Bit by bit, too. Not all at once.

It is time for the usual study.

The peace talks
that have been instigated

by the peace-loving Chinese
communist forces are being sabotaged.

More than ever, you must be asking
yourselves why are you here in Korea?

You must ask yourselves

whether your own side are really
interested in having you released.

We can offer you freedom
from the capitalist oppression.

We are communists.

We therefore have studied the true
feelings and needs of the people.

The communist cause is the right one.

We represent all the oppressed people
of the world

in their struggle for freedom.

What is your answer to that?

Get stuffed!
