No! Tell them no, Alan.

- No!

I am together. We are!

471
00:31:34,976 --> 00:31:37,978
I want you to call me Arthur and
come to me for every little plaster.

But Mum's alive!

473
00:31:39,772 --> 00:31:42,858
Well, I thought I was,
dear. By rights, I should be,

474
00:31:42,942 --> 00:31:45,903
but how can you tell if it's
here in black and white?

475
00:31:45,987 --> 00:31:47,529
Give it to me.

476
00:31:47,614 --> 00:31:50,699
I shouldn't, should I, Dad?
It'll only upset her to read it.

477
00:31:51,701 --> 00:31:55,996
Give it to me, dear. I'll put it
somewhere safe with all the others.

With the health cards.

Look, Mrs. Frereton, there
is nothing wrong with you.

Now then, you're
a nice, kind boy.

481
00:32:04,047 --> 00:32:06,965
It's your wife being alive that
seems to be all the trouble, sir.

- I'm sorry.
- Ah.

Oh, I'm sorry, we don't
want to cause any trouble.

Don't argue with
the nurse, dear.

She's bound to know
best, what's best for us.

Do I lie down or anything?

The way, the way I'd
like you to look at it is this.

You may have lost a wife, sir,

I expect you've got the set now, if
you haven't been careless with them.

careless with our papers,

- Ah!

00:32:40,375 --> 00:32:42,084
Mum got her school.

Father, can you let me see
them all before you send them off?

I would just like to, to
hold them all together,

No, the household
that we're referring to

We did all the cavalry for them.
