OH, THIS IS WHAT A MAN WAS MADE FOR!

WHAT, FREEZING HIS BACKSIDE OFF IN A BOAT?

HELP ME, LAD, HELP ME!

- WHOA! - YOU'RE GONNA BREAK THE LINE!

WHOA!

HEY!

WHERE DID THIS COME FROM?

YOU'RE UP EARLY. COULDN'T SLEEP EITHER?

I CAN'T BELIEVE LEXIE'S MISSING ALL THE EXCITEMENT.

IS THAT WHAT IT IS?

I THINK PERHAPS IT'S YOU THAT'S MISSING HER.

I SUPPOSE WE SHOULD WELCOME THE DISTRACTION.

- QUITE AN OPERATION. - MMM. DO YOU WISH YOU WERE PART OF IT?

- NO. - SO SAD...

DISTURBING SOMEONE'S GRAVE AFTER 60 YEARS.

WE DON'T KNOW IT'S A GRAVE, MOLLY.

WHAT HAPPENED, DONALD?

I CAN'T REMEMBER. I WAS SEVEN IN '41, ALL SO LONG AGO.

I DON'T THINK I CAN LOOK AT THIS ANYMORE.

- YOU ALL RIGHT, MOLLY? - FROGMEN IN THE LOCH...

BRINGS BACK MEMORIES I'D RATHER FORGET.

JAMIE. HOW STUPID OF ME. I'M SORRY.

I JUST HOPE THEY FIND WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING FOR AND WE CAN GET BACK TO NORMAL.

YEAH, OF COURSE. I'M SURE THEY'LL BE GONE SOON.

- ( soldiers chatter ) - ( army radio chatter )

I SUPPOSE IT HAD TO HAPPEN SOMETIME.

YOU AND YOUR FISHING.

HEYA, DOLL, FANCY A FRY-UP?

HOW CAN YOU? HAVE YOU ANY IDEA WHAT THAT'S DOING TO YOUR INSIDES?

YOU BETCHA! ( growls )

- WHAT'S UP WITH YOU? - NOTHING, EVERYTHING'S FINE AND DANDY.

TELL YOU WHAT, BRING ME BACK A NICE FAT SALMON,

FIRST PINT'S ON ME TONIGHT.

- I'LL TRY TO CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT. - GIVE ME A BREAK HERE.

IT'S NOT MY FAULT I'M NOT DUNCAN.

THANKS VERY MUCH.

MR. BOWMAN, YOU ARE THE LAIRD OF GLENBOGLE.

- AYE. - I WAS HOPING I COULD ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS.

I MIGHT ANSWER SOME IF YOU TELL ME WHO YOU ARE.

SORRY... JAYNIE CRESSWELL, "HIGHLAND CHRONICLE."

- OH, RIGHT, YEAH. FIRE AWAY. - ( switch clicks )

WERE ANY OF THE MacDONALD FAMILY

LIVING HERE WHEN THE PLANE CRASHED?

- YES, DONALD. - DONALD?

- MacDONALD. - MAC DONALD.

- DONALD. - MAC DONALD DONALD?

- DONALD MacDONALD. - I'M SORRY, I—

- THAT'S HIS NAME, MacDONALD. - RIGHT!

SORRY, I'M A BIT NEW TO THIS. WHERE WOULD I FIND HIM?

OH, YOU'LL KNOW HIM WHEN YOU SEE HIM.

- I SEE. THANKS VERY MUCH. - IS THAT IT?

THIS IS THE BIGGEST STORY I'VE HAD, MR. BOWMAN, A CHANCE TO...

I NEED TO TALK TO, LIKE, THE REAL MacDONALDS.

WHEW!

GO ON, COME ON. COME ON, THEN.

HAVING FUN?

IT'S NOT FUN. IT'S SERIOUS BUSINESS.

YEAH, YEAH. PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES.

YOU LOT NEVER GROW OUT OF THEM, DO YOU?

SERGEANT BOWMAN!

ALEX!

UH... CAPTAIN FAVERSHAM. OR IS IT MAJOR NOW?

OH, CUT THE MILITARY FORMALITIES, PAUL.

- "SIR" WILL DO NICELY. - IN YOUR DREAMS, SUNSHINE.

HEY! GOOD TO SEE YOU!

- GOOD MORNING. - OH, SORRY.

ALEX FAVERSHAM, ISOBEL ANDERSON.

- ALEX WAS MY COMMANDING OFFICER. - WORST JOB IN THE ARMY.

- NO, NO, WE SHARED SOME TRICKY TIMES TOGETHER. - NONSENSE.

- YOU GOT ME THROUGH THEM. SO WHERE'S THE UNIFORM? - I'M WITH THE M.O.D. NOW.

PAPER SHUFFLER, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?

WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING TO FIND?

THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN, DOESN'T IT?

NO, NO, NO, DON'T WORRY, I CAN FIX THIS.

THE ONLY THING YOU'RE GOOD AT FIXING IS THE NEXT DRINK.

AAUGH!

I RESENT THAT. I'VE SPENT MY ENTIRE LIFE AROUND THINGS MECHANICAL.

WHAT'S THIS COMPARED TO A HIGHLY-TUNED BUGATTI?

SOMETHING THAT WON'T KILL ME, UNLESS I LET YOU TINKER WITH IT.

OH, GOLLY, MY SAVIOR!

IF YOU HAVE A MOMENT WOULD YOU HAVE A LOOK AT DAISY FOR ME?

DON'T GIVE IT TO HIM. IT'S NOT HIS FIELD.

OF COURSE I WILL, LASS, BUT I JUST GAVE IT AN OVERHAUL LAST WEEK.

I THINK IT MIGHT BE THE BRAKES.

HE'S ALL RIGHT AT GRALLOCHING DEAD DEER, I GRANT YOU,

BUT MOVING PARTS— MY THING.

GOING UP KINLOCH HILL, IT WAS LIKE WADING THROUGH MUD.

OH, MOLLY, THAT'S ONE HECK OF A HILL.

HELLO, ARE YOU RECEIVING ME?

MAYBE FOR YOU, BUT I'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR 30 YEARS.

OH, GOOD, A CLAN GATHERING.

I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE A PROBLEM.

IT WASN'T A COINCIDENCE, WAS IT?

YOU COMING UP HERE?

WHEN I SAW "PAUL BOWMAN, LAIRD OF GLENBOGLE" ON THE FILE

I COULDN'T RESIST FINDING OUT IF IT WAS MY EX-SERGEANT.

TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IT'S A RELIEF TO GET AWAY FROM THE OFFICE.

THE DIVERS FOUND A FEW ARTIFACTS BY THE WRECK.

- SOME BONES. - HUMAN?

UNLESS THEY'VE STARTED AWARDING THESE TO HIGHLAND CATTLE.

SOMEBODY'S GOT TO WARN HIM AT LEAST.

WITH A BIT OF LUCK THEY'LL BE GONE IN A FEW DAYS.

- JUST LEAVE THEM TO GET ON WITH IT. - Isobel: I DON'T KNOW.

THIS GUY FROM THE M.O.D., HE'S NOT DAFT.

AND HE'S GOT PAUL IN HIS BACK POCKET. YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THEM.

IF ANYTHING NEEDS DOING, IT'S DOWN TO ME, MY RESPONSIBILITY.

DONALD DEAR, YOU ARE TO RESPONSIBILITY WHAT YOUR BROTHER

- WAS TO THE CONCEPT OF THE NEW MAN. - ( chuckles )

DO YOU MIND? THIS MEANS A VERY GREAT DEAL TO ME, AND I WON'T HAVE YOU—

- AM I INTERRUPTING? - NO, NO, WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT...

MEAT.

- MEAT? - BUTCHERS.

I MEAN MEAT.

I'M... I'M SORRY I MISSED THE CONVERSATION. IT SOUNDS FASCINATING.

I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW I'VE INVITED AN OLD FRIEND TO STAY

- WHILE HE'S WORKING DOWN AT THE LOCH. - YOUR FRIEND FROM THE MINISTRY.

HMM, NEWS TRAVELS FAST.

- I HOPE THAT'S ALL RIGHT WITH EVERYONE. - OF COURSE, THIS IS YOUR HOME.

THAT'S IT! WE WERE JUST TALKING TO EWAN

ABOUT WHAT HE SHOULD COOK FOR DINNER.

IT WOULDN'T DO TO SERVE MEAT...

- IF YOUR FRIEND'S A VEGETARIAN. - VEGETARIAN?

HE'S A SOLDIER, DONALD, A DECORATED MAN OF ACTION.

WHAT DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD SERVE HIM?

- NUT CUTLETS? - ( laughs )

- ( door slams ) - GOOD JOB I CAN THINK ON MY FEET.

CHEERIO, KIRSTY. TAKE CARE.

ISOBEL!

MY DEAR!

IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU!

I THINK I KNOW WHY YOU'RE HERE.

HOLD THE FORT, TOM, WILL YOU?

SUCH A GOOD MAN.

I THINK WE SHOULD RALLY AROUND HIM IN HIS HOUR OF NEED.

- YES, YOU'RE RIGHT. - Golly: WHAT WAS IT YOU USED TO SAY?

CARELESS TALK COSTS LIVES.

I'VE LIVED IN THIS VILLAGE FOR 60 YEARS.

YOU THINK YOU CAN LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND.

NOTHING'S GONNA HAPPEN.

YOU DON'T KNOW THAT, CHILD.

ISN'T THERE SOMEWHERE YOU CAN GO?

- GLASGOW, OR— - NO.

JUST FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS.

TOO OLD. BESIDES, IT WOULD GIVE THE GAME AWAY.

AT LEAST KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN.

I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE IT'S TIME TO COME CLEAN.

- YOU CAN'T. - A SECRET LIKE THIS IS A HEAVY BURDEN FOR EVERYBODY,

NOT JUST ME. I DON'T WANT TO GET ANYONE IN TROUBLE.

LISTEN TO ME. THEY'RE GONNA LOOK OVER THE WRECK,

MAKE THEIR REPORT, AND GO.

IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, IT'LL ALL BE FORGOTTEN.

SOMEBODY TO SEE YOU, DAD, A REPORTER.

I TRIED TO GET RID OF HER BUT SHE INSISTED.

- I'M WRITING A STORY ABOUT THIS PLANE. - OH, AYE?

- SOMEONE SUGGESTED I TALK TO YOU. - DID THEY NOW?

AS ONE OF THE VILLAGE'S SENIOR CITIZENS.

- OH I'M THAT, ALL RIGHT. - SO WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME?

- Isobel: I CAN HELP. - CAN YOU?

YOU'D BE THE FIRST.

MY GRAN WAS BORN AND DIED HERE AND SHE WROTE UP A WEE DIARY EVERY DAY OF HER LIFE.

I CAN TAKE A LOOK IF YOU LIKE.

- THAT WOULD BE REALLY GOOD OF YOU. - I'M ISOBEL ANDERSON.

I LIVE OUT BY GLENBOGLE HOUSE IN THE FARM COTTAGES.

COME HAVE A DRINK. I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I'VE FOUND.

FANTASTIC! I'LL LOOK FORWARD TO IT.

OH, MR. TAYLOR, YOU NEVER ANSWERED MY QUESTION.

NO... UNFORTUNATELY I CAME TO THE VILLAGE AFTER THE PLANE CAME DOWN.

- THAT'S A SHAME. BYE. - BYE.

WELL, I ONLY SPOKE THE TRUTH.

WE DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU OR YOUR SAUSAGES.

- I DIDN'T KNOW YOUR GRAN KEPT A DIARY. - SHE DIDN'T.

YOU FOX. YOU'RE JUST LIKE HER.

NESSIE, YOU BEAUTY!

WELL, YOU'VE EARNED THAT PINT.

- HALF 7:00 AT THE GHILLIE'S? - NO.

I'M NOT REALLY IN THE MOOD.

TWO PINTS, MY FINAL OFFER.

A FIT LASSIE LIKE YOU SHOULDN'T BE SITTING AT HOME IN HER SLIPPERS.

YOU WANT TO BE OUT THERE, LIVING IT LARGE.

NO, I DON'T. I WANT TO BE AT HOME WITH A GOOD BOOK

- AND A MUG OF COCOA. - LIGHTEN UP, WILL YOU?

HOW LONG ARE YOU GONNA GO ON MOPING?

HE'S GONE AND HE'S NOT COMING BACK.

YOU THINK DUNCAN'S TURNED ON TO YOUR BORING OLD FART?

- TOO RIGHT HE HASN'T. - EWAN!

WHAT A HORRIBLE THING TO SAY!

THERE'S A LIFE OUT THERE SOMEWHERE. GO AND LIVE IT, WILL YOU?

- WHAT? - IT'S QUITE HARD TO TAKE YOU SERIOUSLY

WHEN YOU'RE WAVING A FISH IN FRONT OF MY FACE.

I'VE GOT TO WASH MY HAIR.

- SHALL WE MAKE IT 8:00? - YOU'RE ON.

MOLLY?

MOLLY?

- OH, CHECKING UP ON ME. - I'M NOT CHECKING— MOLLY!

WOW.

OH, DONALD, THIS IS OUR HOUSE GUEST, ALEX FAVERSHAM.

- AH. - HELLO.

I WAS JUST SAYING TO ALEX YOU WERE LIVING HERE IN 1941.

OH... OH, A MERE LAD.

MUST HAVE BEEN VERY EXCITING FOR YOU.

I WAS A DREAMER, DIDN'T NOTICE MUCH.

A PLANE DITCHES IN YOUR LOCH, A MAN ON THE RUN?

- MAN? WHAT MAN? - THE ONE WHO BAILED OUT.

LOOK HERE, ARE YOU INTERROGATING ME?

BECAUSE IF SO, I DEMAND THE PRESENCE OF A LAWYER.

WITH YOUR RECORD, YOU'LL KNOW PLENTY.

- NO, NO, JUST CHATTING. - AH.

SO YOU DON'T REMEMBER ANY STRANGE ENGLISHMAN?

IN MY EXPERIENCE, ALL ENGLISHMEN ARE STRANGE.

BUT IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU MEET A NAZI.

NO, HE WASN'T— I MEAN...

I DIDN'T MEET ANYONE.

GOOD DAY.

PAUL?

- DR. McKENDRICK NOT ARRIVED YET? - NO, WHAT'S HAPPENED?

FROM THE HILL.

- ( gasping ) - EASY, EASY, SIT THERE.

- A TOUCH OF HEARTBURN. I TOLD YOU, I'M FINE. - NO, YOU'RE NOT.

GOLLY SOUNDED MILDLY ALARMED ON THE PHONE,

SO IT MUST BE REALLY BAD.

BUT YOU SOUND SO CHEERFUL ABOUT IT.

ONE LITTLE DIZZY SPELL.

WILL YOU STOP TRYING TO BULLY ME?

YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE'S 190 OVER 80.

WORDS, PLEASE, GORDON, NOT NUMBERS.

HIGHER THAN IT SHOULD BE.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE A WEE DRAM OF THAT MacDONALD BLOOD,

AND CHECK THAT TICKER OF YOURS.

- YOU'D BETTER POP INTO THE SURGERY LATER. - I'M NOT ILL.

AM I?

WELL, WELL, MacDONALD.

YOU OWE ME £10 FROM A POKER GAME IN 1959.

I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN AN AGREEABLY LONG TIME.

- I'VE BEEN COUNTING THE DAYS. - YOU LOOK AWFUL.

- AH. - LOST WHATEVER LOOKS YOU HAD.

DRINKING TOO MUCH, I SUPPOSE.

AND YOU COULD LOSE A COUPLE OF STONE WITHOUT NOTICING IT.

NOW, THE MONEY, YOU COULD ALWAYS LEAVE IT TO ME IN YOUR WILL.

I MIGHT BE NEEDING IT SOON. CHEERIO.

DONALD.

- WHAT'S GOING ON? - THAT MAN.

ALL HE'S MISSING IS THE HOOD AND THE SCYTHE OVER HIS SHOULDER.

THE PLANE. YOU'RE HIDING SOMETHING.

- WHATEVER GAVE YOU THAT IDEA? - AND I'M GONNA FIND OUT WHAT IT IS.

ONE WAY... OR ANOTHER.

OH, WHAT'S IT TO BE? THUMBSCREWS...

OR THE RACK? ( laughs )

PAUL TELLS ME YOU FOUND THE REMAINS OF THE PILOT.

IF IT'S A WAR GRAVE, SHOULDN'T IT BE LEFT IN PEACE?

WELL, IT WILL,

AS SOON AS I FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER MAN.

- THE OTHER MAN? - BRITISH SPY WORKING FOR THE NAZIS.

"TINKERBELL."

OBVIOUSLY A FAN OF PETER PAN.

- HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS? - IT'S IN THE ARCHIVES,

OURS AND THE GERMANS'.

WE KNOW HE WAS NEVER CAUGHT, AND HE DIDN'T POP UP IN GERMANY AGAIN.

SURELY YOU DON'T THINK HE'S STILL AROUND HERE?

INTERESTING SUGGESTION, MOLLY.

I'D NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT.

SOME HAVE MEAT AND CANNOT EAT

BUT SOME WOULD EAT THAT WANT IT.

BUT WE HAVE MEAT AND WE CAN EAT

SO BLESS THE LORD BE THANKIT.

COME NOW, DON'T LOOK SO WORRIED.

IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

HE WAS A YOUNG MAN, SO HE COULD STILL BE ALIVE.

HE WOULDN'T BE THE FIRST TRAITOR TO CHANGE HIS IDENTITY AND GO UNDERGROUND.

BUT THAT WOULDN'T ABSOLVE HIM OF GUILT

FOR THE DEATHS OF THE BRAVE MEN HE BETRAYED.

MY OWN GRANDFATHER WAS ON A COMMANDO MISSION IN NORWAY,

WHICH WAS AMBUSHED BECAUSE A DOUBLE AGENT GAVE THEM AWAY.

- THEY WERE ALL MURDERED. - BUT SURELY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS—

I'M NOT SAYING HE'D GO TO PRISON FOR THE REST OF HIS DAYS,

BUT THOSE MEN DESERVE SOME KIND OF JUSTICE, DON'T YOU THINK?

- SORRY, MOLLY. - NO, YOU'RE QUITE ENTITLED TO SAY WHAT YOU THINK.

IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I'D BETTER SEE IF MY MEN HAVE FOUND ANYTHING ELSE.

THANK YOU FOR DINNER.

I'LL SEE YOU OUT.

THEY BELIEVE HE'S A SPY.

- YOU DON'T THINK— - ( door closes )

- THE OLD MAN, DONALD— - KNOWS SOMETHING.

LEAVE HIM TO ME.

THANK YOU.

NICE SNAKE. DOES IT BITE?

- ONLY IF YOU GET TOO CLOSE. - MIGHT BE WORTH THE RISK.

A PINT OF LAGER, AND WHATEVER YOU FANCY.

WHAT, TO DRINK?

I DON'T WHEN I'M WORKING.

HOW ABOUT WHEN YOU'RE NOT?

I'M OFF AT 10:00.

- HI. - HEY, YOU MADE IT.

YEAH, SORRY I'M LATE. JUST TRIED TO MAKE A WEE BIT OF AN EFFORT.

YOU LOOK GORGEOUS.

- WHAT ARE YOU HAVING? - SAME AGAIN?

OH, NO! SHE WASN'T HERE?

I DIDN'T KNOW, MY GRAN SPENT THE WAR IN GLASGOW WORKING IN THE SHIPYARDS.

I'M REALLY SORRY, JAYNIE.

ISOBEL, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?

- WHY, WHAT'S WRONG? - I'M REALLY BANKING ON THIS.

THE JOB'S NOT QUITE WORKING OUT.

I'M KIND OF DRINKING IN THE "LAST CHANCE" SALOON.

IN THAT CASE I BETTER GET YOU ANOTHER, EH?

WELL, THIS IS FUN, EH?

( chuckles ) NO, IT ISN'T.

- MAYBE THIS WASN'T SUCH A GOOD IDEA, EWAN. - OCH, AWAY WITH YOU.

NOW THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD DO.

OH, NO. I CAN'T SING.

NEITHER CAN I. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT.

LOOK, YOU CAN BE THE EYE CANDY, AND I'LL BE THE FRONT MAN.

ON CRUTCHES IF YOU DON'T WATCH YOUR LIP!

ANOTHER PINT FOR THE LADY.

I THINK IT'S GREAT, BY THE WAY.

- SORRY? - I MEAN, WHY SHOULD IT ALWAYS BE

OLD MEN AND YOUNG GIRLS?

- OH NO, WE'RE NOT— - I THINK YOU'RE VERY BRAVE.

ESPECIALLY LOOKING LIKE THAT.

YOU DON'T REALLY THINK THIS SPY'S STILL HERE?

WHY NOT? WHATEVER, SOMEONE KNOWS SOMETHING.

CAN'T YOU JUST LAY DOWN THE LAW?

INSIST THAT ANYONE LIVING ON YOUR LAND SAYS WHAT THEY KNOW OR ELSE?

OR ELSE WHAT? THEY'RE NOT SOLDIERS.

A BIT OF REAL AUTHORITY USUALLY WORKS.

IF I PLAYED THE OLD MAN-FROM-THE-MINISTRY ROUTINE

- YOU'D BE SURPRISED HOW QUICKLY PEOPLE SAT UP. - NO, NOT HERE.

WANNA BET?

50 QUID SAYS IF THERE'S ANYTHING TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS SPY,

I'LL GET IT BEFORE YOU DO.

- ( glass thunks ) - OKAY, YOU'RE ON.

SO, YOU COMING TO OUR KARAOKE COMPETITION?

IT'S NOT REALLY MY SORT OF THING.

NO, YOU LOOK MORE OF A FOLK CLUB SORT OF PERSON.

MIGHT BE A BIT OF A HUMILIATION ALL AROUND.

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?

- YOU SERIOUS ABOUT THE KARAOKE? - WHY, YOU UP FOR IT?

YEAH, YEAH. IF WE DO IT PROPERLY.

- REHEARSE AND WHATEVER. - COOL.

FINE. CHEERS.

- DONALD. - OH.

GUILTY CONSCIENCE?

WHAT HAVE I GOT TO FEEL GUILTY ABOUT?

- YOU TELL ME. - I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE—

HE WASN'T A NAZI, YOU SAID.

WHO WASN'T A NAZI?

BE WARNED, I BOXED AS A LAD.

JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW.

OH, I'M SUDDENLY FEELING QUITE FAINT.

- OH, DON'T COME THAT. - Donald: OH!

PAUL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, HARASSING DONALD LIKE THAT?

A FEEBLE OLD MAN,

YOU OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.

WATCH IT, HE'S ONTO SOMETHING.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN FEEBLE?

COME, YOUNG MAN! WHAT ON EARTH HAVE YOU BEEN DOING WITH YOURSELF?

YOU NEVER TOLD US THERE WAS ANOTHER MAN IN THE PLANE.

- AND THAT HE WAS A SPY. - IS IT IMPORTANT?

THEY FOUND THE REMAINS OF A BODY.

WITH THE REMAINS OF A PILOT'S UNIFORM AROUND HIM.

AND YOU THINK THAT I WAS THIS SPY?

YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME.

- IT'S NOT THAT. - WITHOUT THAT I'M LOST.

WITHOUT YOU, I WAS LOST.

WELL, YOU'RE VERY BUSY THIS MORNING, MR. TAYLOR.

IT'S ALL RIGHT. I CAN BUY MY OWN BACON.

AND YOU'RE BREAKING QUARANTINE.

ANY CHANCE OF A LIFT?

HOW CAN I HELP YOU, MR. BOWMAN?

PAUL'S FINE.

I'M A BIT OLD-FASHIONED ABOUT THESE THINGS.

PERHAPS WHEN WE KNOW EACH OTHER BETTER.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?

"THE GREAT ESCAPE," AN ENJOYABLE FILM,

ESPECIALLY THAT GREAT MOMENT.

- YOU SPEAK GERMAN? - I SPENT SOME TIME THERE.

- UH-HUH. - AS DID THIS BRITISH FASCIST WHO WAS SPYING FOR THE NAZIS.

YOU SPEAK GERMAN TOO?

I SPENT SOME TIME THERE. THE LAST WAR, I WAS IN THE AIR FORCE.

ON WHICH SIDE?

TELL ME, WHY ARE YOU HERE?

I KNOW.

I CAN'T PROVE IT, BUT I KNOW.

AND I THINK YOU SHOULD COME CLEAN.

OTHERWISE, OTHER PEOPLE, FRIENDS OF MINE AND YOURS,

ARE GONNA GET IN A LOT OF TROUBLE.

- ANYTHING ELSE? - YEAH.

I'LL HAVE SOME OF YOUR DELICIOUS LIVER SAUSAGE.

YOU MUST TELL ME WHERE YOU LEARNED TO MAKE IT.

ONE DAY, PAUL, PERHAPS.

CHECK THE PECS!

- HEYA. - YOU LIKE THAT ALL OVER?

I CAN COOK TOO.

ARE YOU GONNA COOK SOMETHING FOR ME?

I'M ALWAYS UP FOR SOMETHING...

SPICY.

SO, HE COOKS,

HE'S FIT,

BUT CAN HE SING?

WATCH ME WIN THE KARAOKE.

YOU MIGHT IF WE DO IT TOGETHER.

OH, AYE?

OH NO. JESS—

OF COURSE WE'D HAVE TO PUT IN SOME PRACTICE ROUND MY PLACE,

RUN THROUGH A FEW MOVES.

MAKE, UM...

TOGETHER?

COOL.

THROW THE LINE! COME ON, LADS.

YOU CAN DROP THE ACT.

- I KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. - I WISH I DID.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

- WHY DO YOU THINK, SERGEANT BOWMAN? - NOT ANYMORE.

COME OFF IT, PAUL, YOU'VE BEEN DOFFING YOUR CAP

- SINCE YOUR SQUADDIE FRIEND ARRIVED. - I SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOLD.

I'M TRYING TO PROTECT AN INNOCENT MAN.

I KNOW WHERE MY LOYALTIES LIE.

HOW ABOUT YOU?

SO HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?

NOT SO GOOD.

JUST STARING OUT OF THE WINDOW, WAITING.

NOT CYCLED UP ANY MOUNTAINS THEN?

WHAT, FRAIL OLD THING LIKE ME?

YOU'LL SEE ME OUT, MacDONALD.

BUT YOU'VE SEEN THE E.C.G. RESULTS FOR YOURSELF.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF YOU.

HOW CAN YOU BE SO SURE HE'S INNOCENT?

MY GRAN WAS AN IMPECCABLE JUDGE OF CHARACTER.

- YOUR GRAN? - YEAH. SHE HELPED HIM.

- SHE BELIEVED IN HIM. - WHAT IF MR. TAYLOR MANAGED TO FOOL HER?

- HE'D HAVE TO HAVE BEEN A DAMN GOOD ACTOR. - SPIES USUALLY ARE.

MAYBE THAT'S WHY HE SURVIVED FOR SO LONG.

ALEX WON'T GIVE UP UNTIL HE GETS A RESULT.

I WON'T BELIEVE THAT MY GODFATHER IS A SPY.

- YOUR GODFATHER? - THERE YOU ARE.

- HOW ARE THINGS GOING? GOT ANYWHERE YET? - MAYBE.

PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS HAPPY TO TALK TO PAUL.

THEY TRUST HIM.

LET'S JUST SEE HOW THINGS STAND AT THE END OF THE DAY.

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU'VE GOT NOTHING.

AH WELL, NEED TO PUSH ON. BOSS IS BREATHING DOWN MY NECK,

TELLING ME TIME'S MONEY, AND I'M RUNNING OUT OF BOTH.

OH... STILL GOOD FOR THAT 50, THOUGH.

50?

ANYWAY, THANKS FOR NOT SAYING ANYTHING.

IT'S BEST FOR EVERYONE IF IRVINE TELLS THE TRUTH.

IF HE DOESN'T COME CLEAN TO ALEX, I WILL.

HE'S GOT TILL TOMORROW MORNING.

WELL?

AS I GUESSED, CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH.

THAT'S A GREAT RELIEF, MOLLY.

SO THAT'S THAT.

THIS HAS BEEN HARD ON YOU, HASN'T IT?

IT'S PART OF MY LIFE.

I THOUGHT IT WAS DEAD AND BURIED.

WHEN I SAW THAT PLANE RISE UP OUT OF THE WATER,

SO MANY BAD MEMORIES CAME TOO.

I WISH IT WOULD SINK BACK INTO THE MUD AND TAKE THEM WITH IT.

- GOTCHA! - ( keys clicking )

THERE YOU ARE.

- ( music stops ) - I GOT A TAPE OF BACKING TRACKS FROM A SHOP IN TOWN.

- YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE GONE TO THE BOTHER. - WE WANT TO WIN, DON'T WE?

JESS...

WHAT?

I CAN'T DO IT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I'VE TOLD ZOE I'LL SING WITH HER.

OH.

I'M SORRY. IT WAS NOT MY IDEA, YOU KNOW?

SHE JUST CAME OVER, AND, YOU KNOW...

IT'S FINE. FINE.

- HAUT-BRION '93? - YES.

MY LATE BROTHER HAD HIS FAULTS,

BUT AT LEAST HE ALWAYS KEPT A PRETTY FINE CELLAR.

- WELL, THINGS TO DO— - WHAT ABOUT YOUR FAULTS?

OH, HO HO HO!

HOW DID YOU GET HOLD OF THIS?

YOU THINK A SENIOR M.O.D. OFFICIAL CAN'T GET ACCESS TO THE POLICE COMPUTER?

YOU HAVE INFRINGED THE DATA PROTECTION ACT.

AN ORDER CAN BE LIFTED, YOU KNOW...

IF IT'S CLEARLY IN THE NATIONAL INTEREST.

OH. FIRST THREATS,

THEN BASE INDUCEMENTS? TELL ME,

WHERE DOES HONOR SIT

IN THIS MURKY WORLD OF YOURS, CAPTAIN FAVERSHAM, HMM?

HERE, YOU'LL WANT THIS TO TAKE BACK TO LONDON.

ONE SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING SENSATIONAL TO READ ON THE TRAIN.

I NEED A BOLT HOLE.

YOU SEEM TROUBLED, LADDY.

I'M NOT A LADDY.

HAS DONALD BEEN THIS WAY?

- WHO WERE YOU TALKING TO? - THE STEAK.

IT HELPS TENDERIZE IT.

THANKS FOR NOT GRASSING ME UP.

NOW WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

AH, THE OLDEST ONE, PERHAPS I CAN HELP.

I'VE TRAVELED WIDELY ON THE CONTINENT OF LOVE.

WHAT'S MORE IMPORTANT, DONALD,

SEX OR FRIENDSHIP?

OH WELL, MY BOY,

OVER THE YEARS I'VE CHANGED MY VIEW.

THIS MAY SEEM RATHER UNFASHIONABLE,

BUT SEX! OOH! EVERY TIME.

THERE YOU ARE. WE'VE GOT TO PUT A STOP TO THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL.

WILL YOU HELP ME?

I WANT YOU TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST WITH ME.

I THINK I KNOW WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.

YOU KNEW ALL ALONG, DIDN'T YOU?

- IT'S COMPLICATED, PAUL. - IS IT?

SEEMS A VERY STRAIGHTFORWARD QUESTION OF LOYALTIES TO ME.

I'VE BEEN MUGGED! HELP! HERE, OF ALL PLACES!

I'VE BEEN MUGGED!

I WAS BIRD-WATCHING, A MAGNIFICENT PAIR OF GREY WAGTAILS.

RUFFIANS SET ABOUT ME. AGH, OOF...

THERE HE GOES. THERE! AFTER HIM!

- ( crane starts ) - WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING?

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?

I'M PUTTING IT BACK WHERE IT BELONGS.

IT'S CAUSED NOTHING BUT TROUBLE AND UPSET.

YOU GONNA STAND THERE OR YOU GONNA HELP ME?

WHAT? BETRAY MY MATE? I CAN'T DO THAT.

DECIDE WHAT YOU ARE, PAUL, PART OF THIS COMMUNITY,

OR A STRANGER THAT SHOULD NEVER HAVE LEFT THE ARMY.

HE'S A GOOD MAN. EVERYONE KNOWS IT.

THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.

IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT, YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN ANYTHING HERE.

PLEASE.

OKAY, COME ON.

NEXT TIME YOU'VE GOT A BRIGHT IDEA, DO ME A FAVOR AND KEEP IT TO YOURSELF.

I COULD HAVE OUTRUN A COUPLE OF SQUADDIES WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE.

NOW HOLD YOUR WHISHT AND LET THE SIRLOIN DO ITS WORK.

WHAT IS IT?

I LEFT IT IN CHILI MARINADE, YOU IDIOT!

- OH! - WHAT'S THE MATTER?

HE'S NEARLY HAD ME DEAD! TWICE!

OH NO! WELL, NEVER MIND.

THIRD TIME LUCKY, DONALD, EH?

IT'S JUST NOT YOUR DAY, IS IT?

BLACK EYE, COMPLETE DOG'S DINNER ON THE JESSICA FRONT.

- WORD OF ADVICE— - I'VE ALREADY LISTENED TO YOUR ADVICE!

ONE SOLUTION— LARGE SLICE OF HUMBLE PIE.

YOU'RE A COOK, GET BAKING.

GOLLY.

STERN, BUT CHARACTERISTIC GREETING.

OH, THIS IS WHERE YOU SAY "EVENING, DOCTOR."

SORRY, DOCTOR. I WAS JUST SURPRISED TO SEE YOU, THAT'S ALL.

WHY SO?

SINCE MOLLY WAS GIVEN THE ALL CLEAR.

OH...

SO THAT'S WHAT SHE TOLD YOU?

LADY'S PREROGATIVE, I SUPPOSE.

PERHAPS YOU COULD TELL HER I DROPPED BY.

THINGS WE NEED TO ORGANIZE...

RIGHT.

YOU KEEP THIS REALLY LOVELY, MOLLY.

IT'S HIS BIRTHDAY NEXT WEEK.

JAMIE WOULD HAVE BEEN...

38. IMAGINE THAT.

PROMISE ME YOU'LL TAKE CARE OF THIS LITTLE PATCH WHEN I'M GONE.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

- I'VE JUST SEEN THE DOCTOR. - DID HE SAY ANYTHING?

DIDN'T HAVE TO.

SO WHAT IS IT? GIVE IT TO ME STRAIGHT.

IT'S A TINY THING, IN MY HEART— WELL, QUITE A VITAL TINY THING,

WHICH GOES "TICKETY-TOCK, TICKETY-TOCK,"

WHEN IT SHOULD GO "TICK-TOCK, TICK-TOCK."

OR IS IT THE OTHER WAY AROUND?

I NEVER DID HAVE MUCH SENSE OF RHYTHM.

ANYWAY, THAT'S WHY I'VE BEEN FEELING SO ROTTEN.

I HAVE TO GO TO HOSPITAL AND HAVE AN OPERATION.

THAT... THAT JUST SOUNDS LIKE ARRHYTHMIA.

IS IT ARRHYTHMIA, IS THAT WHAT IT IS?

SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

DON'T GLOWER AT ME, YOU LOOK LIKE AN UNDERTAKER.

YOU GREAT DAFTER, YOU HAD ME WORRIED THERE.

- YOU MEAN IT'S NOT SERIOUS? - NO.

LOTS OF PEOPLE GET IT— MANAGER OF MANCHESTER UNITED, THE PRIME MINISTER.

AND THE OPERATION TAKES FIVE MINUTES.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA DIE, LASS.

- NO. - NO.

COME HERE.

WHAT A SHAME. I WAS PLANNING SUCH A LOVELY FUNERAL.

I HOPE YOU'RE GONNA GIVE THOSE TWO A —

OVER THE WAY THEY ROUGHED EWAN UP.

- YOU ARE JOKING. - THEY SHOULD BE ON A CHARGE.

IT ONLY HAPPENED BECAUSE YOU TRIED TO SABOTAGE AN M.O.D. OPERATION.

YOU'RE DAMN LUCKY I DON'T REPORT YOU!

I'M NOT IN THE ARMY ANYMORE, ALEX, AND NEITHER ARE YOU!

I HAVE TO SAY I FEEL BADLY LET DOWN BY YOU...

AFTER ALL I DID FOR YOU.

I WILL NEVER FORGET IT. BUT I'VE GOT OTHER OBLIGATIONS NOW.

- SO IT WOULD SEEM. - I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

YOU'RE TRYING TO PROVE SOMETHING, MOSTLY TO YOURSELF.

- WHAT DO YOU MEAN? - BUT I THINK YOU MIGHT BE WRONG.

- IF YOU'D LET ME HELP— - HELP?

YOU'VE DONE NOTHING BUT OBSTRUCT ME SINCE THE MOMENT I ARRIVED!

HEAR, HEAR!

EVERYONE'S CLAMMED UP, LIKE THEY'RE SCARED TO SPEAK.

WHAT ARE YOU, LAIRD OR A MAFIA DON?

SHE'S RIGHT.

MY MEN GOT NOWHERE.

THE VILLAGE HAS TAKEN A VOW OF SILENCE.

MAYBE I COULD SHED A LITTLE LIGHT ON ALL THIS.

UNTEROFFIZIER ERWIN SCHNEIDER.

IF YOU'LL PERMIT ME, I'D LIKE TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT.

60 YEARS AGO,

I WAS THE PILOT OF THIS PLANE HERE.

THEN HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THE BONES,

- AND REMNANTS OF A PILOT'S UNIFORM? - I HAD A PASSENGER,

A VERY IMPORTANT MAN. I GAVE HIM MY FLYING JACKET.

- DID YOU NOW? - IT WAS SO COLD IN THE PLANE.

WE WERE HEADING FOR THE WEST OF SCOTLAND UNDER THE COVER OF DARKNESS.

HE WAS GOING TO JUMP NORTH OF GLASGOW.

WELL, I LOST MY WAY...

AND HIT THE COAST SLAP-BANG OVER DUNDEE WITH ALL ITS GUNS.

WE WERE HIT, HE WAS INJURED,

AND WE LOST AN ENGINE ON THE STARBOARD WING.

WE WERE FINISHED. SO WHEN I SPOTTED THE WATER I TOLD HIM TO JUMP.

I OPENED THE CANOPY,

BUT HE COULD NOT MAKE IT.

THEN I WAS FLOATING DOWN TO EARTH.

THE PLANE HIT THE WATER SOMETHING TERRIBLE.

WHAT HAPPENED?

I SHELTERED IN THE WOODS, AND EARLY THE NEXT MORNING

I CAME TO A CLEARING NEAR A WATERFALL.

AND A FEW FEET AWAY I SAW THE BODY OF A BOY...

AND MY OLD LIFE ENDED.

HIS FACE WAS SO COLD, I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD.

BUT I WASN'T.

YOU?

I'D HAD AN ARGUMENT WITH MY FATHER THE DAY BEFORE.

RAN AWAY, BROKE MY ANKLE.

- COULDN'T MOVE. FOOLISH BOY. - SO I HAD A DILEMMA.

- I CARRIED HIM FOR MILES. - SCHNELL, BITTE!

SCHNELL, BITTE!

THEN I SAW THE BIG HOUSE AND SCREAMED FOR HELP.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME.

I WAS SCARED. I'D WANTED TO RUN.

BUT I WAS EXHAUSTED.

THEN THE LAIRD TOOK ME INTO THE HOUSE.

YOU SAVED MY LIFE.

NOT THAT I CAN SAY I'VE DONE A GREAT DEAL WITH IT.

OH, I WOULDN'T SAY THAT. WE'RE ALL VERY FOND OF YOU.

ARE YOU?

WELL, UP TO A POINT.

I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD IT ANY OTHER WAY.

I'VE HAD SUCH A HAPPY LIFE HERE.

YOU COULD HAVE BEEN HUNG AS A SPY.

AND THE VILLAGERS DIDN'T GIVE YOU UP?

WELL, A FEW OF THEM WANTED ME HANDED OVER,

BUT THE LAIRD AND HIS WIFE TALKED THEM ROUND.

ISOBEL'S GRANDMOTHER WAS A GREAT HELP.

- HOW'S THAT? - I WAS PUT UNDER A SORT OF

HOUSE ARREST AT KATE'S FARM,

TO WORK AS A KIND OF UNOFFICIAL PRISONER OF WAR.

NOW, IF I HAD ATTEMPTED TO ESCAPE, SHE WOULD HAVE GOT THE BLAME.

SO AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, SHE'S THE HERO.

SO THAT'S YOUR MESSERSCHMITT 109?

ACTUALLY IT'S A 110, MARK F.

NOT SO FAST AS THE 109, BUT TWICE THE RANGE.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE DAIMLER-BENZ INVERTED V-12 ENGINES?

SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

SOLDIERS HAVE TO MAKE CHOICES.

SOMETIMES THEY INVOLVE THE LIVES OF OTHER PEOPLE.

I SALUTE THIS MAN, AND WHAT HE DID.

JUST AS I SALUTE YOU.

I CAME HERE TO DO A JOB, PAUL.

IT'S WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR, MY DUTY.

- CAN'T IT JUST END HERE? - Paul: HE'S AN OLD MAN, ALEX.

AND A GOOD ONE.

YOUR DUTY IS TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT.

AND YOU WILL BE

THROWING A MAN TO THE LIONS IF YOU PUBLISH THIS.

THIS IS THE STORY OF A LIFETIME.

IT WOULD MAKE THE NATIONALS.

- AND MY CAREER. - AND DESTROY A MAN,

HIS FAMILY, AND A COMMUNITY.

CAN YOU LIVE WITH THAT?

STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT.

THE BALL'S IN YOUR COURT...

IF YOU KEEP SHTUM.

DON'T DO THIS TO ME.

PLEASE?

GOOD FOR YOU.

THIS IS KIND OF YOU, GOLLY,

BUT IT 'S NOT QUITE THE SAME AS CYCLING DOWN.

DAISY!

YOU KNOW WHAT THE DOCTOR SAID.

HE SAID DON'T OVERTAX YOURSELF.

DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT YOU NOT GOING DOWNHILL.

- GIVE ME A PUSH THEN. - CERTAINLY.

- THERE YOU GO. - WHEE!

WHEE!

MY GODFATHER SAYS YOU'LL MAKE A GOOD LAIRD.

- WHAT DO YOU SAY? - CHEERS.

I OWE YOU AN APOLOGY.

YOU WERE JUST DOING YOUR JOB.

OH, THANK YOU. I MAY NOT BE DOING THAT FOR MUCH LONGER.

WHAT'S THAT?

I THINK MY DAYS AT THE M.O.D. ARE COMING TO AN END.

BECAUSE OF THIS?

IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE, FRESH START.

- I'VE BEEN THERE MYSELF. - WHAT DID YOU DO?

- CAME UP HERE. - Paul: THAT'S AN IDEA.

WHY DON'T YOU STAY HERE WHILE YOU SORT THINGS OUT?

- WELL, I... - YEAH, YOU SHOULD.

SHOULD I?

HI, HOW YOU DOING?

GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY.

HI THERE, HOW YOU DOING?

- TWO BOTTLES OF BEER— - WHISKY.

A WHISKY, AND A RED WINE PLEASE.

CAREER PROSPECTS OF A JOURNALIST WITH A SENSE OF MORALITY?

ZERO, NADA, KAPUT.

HI.

IF I GO BACK WITH NOTHING, I'LL BE SIGNING ON NEXT WEEK.

I DON'T SUPPOSE YOU'D BE INTERESTED

IN THE EXCLUSIVE PROFILE OF A VETERAN FORMULA ONE DRIVER,

- RECENTLY RETIRED TO COUNTRY SEAT? - DO YOU KNOW ONE?

AS LONG AS THERE ARE A FEW SHILLINGS IN IT FOR ME,

YOU'RE TALKING TO "THE FLYING SCOTSMAN."

IT SOUNDS INTERESTING.

- ARE YOU STILL DRIVING, THEN? - SADLY NOT.

A FEW PROBLEMS WITH MR. ( mimics siren ) OF LATE.

"RACING ACE WHO'S LOST HIS LICENSE," THAT'S A GOOD STORY.

- EXCUSE ME. - DON'T GO!

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE'VE GOT A BIG TREAT FOR YOU NOW,

SO PUT YOUR HANDS TOGETHER FOR MR. EWAN BRODIE!

HAVE A GOOD TIME.

- GOOD EVENING, GLASTONBURY. - ( chuckles )

TONIGHT I'M GOING TO SING A DUET WITH A VERY SPECIAL PERSON,

WHO DESERVES BETTER FROM A FRIEND—

JESS, WILL YOU COME UP HERE?

EWAN!

COME ON, JESS. JESS! JESS!

JESS! JESS!

- ( applause ) - ( music begins )

I THOUGHT THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A DUET.

- I CAN'T SING A NOTE IN TUNE. - WHAT?

I JUST WANTED TO SEE YOU HAVE A GOOD TIME AGAIN. WORKED, DIDN'T IT?

OLD FRIEND—

CAPTAIN FAVERSHAM GAVE ME THIS.

I THINK IT BELONGS TO YOU.

NO, THIS BELONGED TO ANOTHER MAN.

AND HE DIED... A LONG TIME AGO.
