Original subtitles

After five dark, anxious years, the sun breaks through

This Dakota, landing in a free country...

...is bringing Queen Wilhelmina back home, to Holland

It is a stirring moment as the door opens

Resolute and confident, the Queen sets foot on Dutch soil

After a warm welcome by civilian and military authorities...

...Her Majesty leaves the airport

A jubilant nation greets its Sovereign Queen

Her triumphant return to The Hague...

...highlights these first weeks of liberation

Without Pomp, accompanied by a single aid...

...Her Majesty passes the cheering crowds

Noordeinde Palace awaits her at the end of the route...

...once more flying the Dutch flag

Children greet her with flowers

As Queen Wilhelmina arrives at her palace...

...the realisation that the House of Orange is home again...

...fills the hearts of the Dutch people with joy

In you go, freshers!

Inside, you sods!

Come with me!

Up you go! Go on!

- My name's Jack Ten Brink, sir - Your name's Dickhead, get it?

- What is it? - Dickhead, sir

What do you think of Hitler?

Filthy exhibitionist!

He builds good motorways

Are you for or against the sod?

Hitler's a bloody bastard

Piss off, you sods

May I introduce myself?

Jack Ten Brink. You might know the name: My father's on the Council

Two more shirkers?

I'm Jack Ten Brink

- Alex - Eric

Were they hard on you?

Someone made me say that Hitler is a bastard

Must have been a Jew

Can we stay here this long?

They have three weeks

Enough time for a game of cards

- New boys to the dining room! - On your bums!

- Jesus, dinner time! - The President!

Everybody rise!

- Down on the floor! On your belly! - Prick on the floor!

Sit, sit, sit! Everybody!

And eat, eat, eat!

Bring them here

Filthy shirkers! You're in for it!

Shirking, were you?

No, sir

Would you rather go home?

I'd rather stay, sir

Would you?

Yes, sir

Sing for us

Hum along

Off key

Start again

Off key

Again

Mr President

This is serious

He's bleeding

Hi, Eric

Can you drink this yet?

Of course

Hi, Esther

I won't get up, if you don't mind: 8 stitches

- Unbelievable - What happened?

It's a long story

- We were... - Not now, Eric

- We're off to play tennis - We're not...

Tell us

Well, it was the first evening...

...he puts it on my head and starts hitting it

Again and again... and I keep singing:

- Eric, you have a visitor - The President

Don't get up, Lanshof

I mean, your head...

Just a few stitches

Telling your young friends about university life?

- Well... - I'd like a word, Lanshof

Sit down, sir. You were going anyway

Are you coming?

My apologies for last night. It was uncalled for

It was nothing...

It was... Is that beer?

Would you like some?

I intend to look after you

There's a vacancy in my digs. Want it?

Yes, thank you

Your health, Lanshof

Your health, sir

You can call me Guus now

Right, sir

Idiot

Thanks

Good, I'll copy them

You really should attend lectures

- You sound like my mother - Hey, Ian!

- I missed you today - I was boxing

Eric is at home

I don't blame him

Shall we go up for a drink?

Let's surprise him

On my shoulders

And you? Or don't you dare?

No

Come on, come with us

How's the sherry?

Disgusting

- I've got something stronger - Nice

Give us a hand

Alex!

Pull!

Guus might like a drink too

Call him, will you?

Who's slinking about? Professor Ten Brink

I don't slink. I was at Professor Teilder's

A preliminary

I passed!

A present...

...from my old man

- That's a good one - A Leica

German

Excellent make

Want some?

No, coffee... I'm in training

I'll order some

One coffee!

Hello, chaps

- A drink? - Please, one

Have my chair

- How's your love life? - I can't keep the landlady off me

- Good looking? - What a figure...

One coffee

For this gentleman, Greta

Let's take a photo. Move closer together

- I'm off to Germany. Like to come? - No way

Trainloads of Jews arrive here every day. I don't like swimming upstream

Don't move!

Sit still

- It's coming! - As the nun said to the bishop

Glass, glass!

Four, three, two, one...

Cheers!

- Eric's good - You're better

- Yes, at tennis - You should have played

Guard duty

Shut up!

Guus is a poor loser

War!

- God, it's war - Oh, for the English...

We'll be neutral, as usual

Don't be so bloody stupid

- What's with him? - He's a Jew

I never noticed...

- Dickhead! What was the score? - Deuce

Hey, Nico, come on

Turn off the radio, Robby

Pencil!

Look, he can write!

9th of May

1940

What's the time?

- What's the army like? - A lot of wimps

We could beat the Papuans

Nothing will happen

Do you mind?

I do... a spot of war would be quite exciting

Gentlemen, time please

We must be off

Nico will take us to the station

Mr Precisely

Coming with us?

No way...

She's staying. We'll get her home, right, Eric?

- No problem - Well, Es?

I'd like to stay a while

We'll show you out

See you next week

Let's get going, Robby!

Off we go!

Bye, darling

Why aren't you in the army?

Bad eyes. Everything's fuzzy at a distance

But close up I see everything, perfectly

Robby and I are getting engaged next year

Congratulations

- Lucky devil - Who?

Both of you. Want to dance?

Aeroplanes

Are they ours?

We don't have that many

Jerries

Going to England

Friday May 10, 1940. Eric and Guus

Stop! What do you want?

- We've come to volunteer - You must be mad

- They're jerries! - In disguise!

- We're Dutch - Hands up!

Make them say something with 'sch'... Germans can't pronounce it

- Scheveningen, Schoonmoeder... - Scheveningen, sche, sche sche!

Let them through

Eric, here

We've come to volunteer

Come back in ten days

Bloody officials! We want to help

Come back in ten days

Ten days is quite reasonable

- It'll be over by then - The last war was 4 years

Come back in ten days

Come on

Come on, Eric

- See you in ten days - Or sooner

Been to a party, have you?

Yes, a party

With schnapps and Dutch girls?

Let's pay and go

A tip even... decent of them

Monday, May 13. Alex

A fifteen minute break!

- My folks live here, may I visit them? - Go ahead

Come in. You can shoot the lot of them

The bloody traitors

Dirty fascist!

- Hello, Mother - Hello, Son

Bunch of idiots

Just because your mother's German. Stupid. Stupid!

They think they can defeat Germany

They'll pay when we get out. The lot of them

And how!

- It's not as bad as all that - We'll see

Did you hear about the Queen? She fled to England

And you have to fight

Tuesday, May 14. Ian

German paratroopers... over there!

Behind those wooden shacks

- What's up? - Paratroopers

Look, there

Check it out

Cover us

Wounded?

Jesus, what are you up to? There's a war on

So what?

April fool!

That's Derek... There's a madhouse nearby

I fooled you! April fool!

Attention! Salute!

What's going on?

False alarm about paratroopers, General

The war is over. Rotterdam's been flattened

Thousands of casualties. We've capitulated

Capitulated? But it just started

It's over. The politicians and collaborators betrayed us

But it's not our fault. Holland can be proud of its army

Men, I thank you!

Now what?

Line up!

In position

Towels down!

In the water

Go!

Come back, that's dangerous

Want some more sand? Here!

- Jerry slut! - Mummy's boy!

You're attracting attention, Guus

Boys, it's free!

There's Eric

Outboard motor

Petrol

Put some in

- The forecast? - Calm sea

Good, or I'll puke my guts out

It really stinks. I hope the jerries don't smell it

Screw it on tight

Stand still

Fine little boat

Sherry from Dad, cheese from my mother, for the trip

- Got the charts? - Couldn't get them

Damn it, you said you would

There's only one England and it's there

No, it's there

Why aren't you coming?

Someone's got to do the dirty work here

You just don't dare

If you say so

Your health

Celebrating something?

Alex!

- How about a swim? - Good idea

Haven't seen much of you lately

Where were you?

At home. My parents have had a tough time

Who hasn't?

Come and see us some time

Alex, I like you, but visiting your parents is a bit much

I'll see you around

That's all we needed

- The dirty fascist - Alex is a fine fellow

- I smell petrol - What time do we leave?

The beach will be deserted in an hour

In two days we'll be in London

Touch wood

- It's a sturdy boat - One leak and you've had it

What can go wrong?

The petrol!

Let's get out of here!

How do you like Robby, hanging up his mother's washing?

Will you ask the English to come and get me?

- Is that it? - Yes, in code

Really?

Yes

I can hardly signal: 'Will London come for Mr Lanshof'

Isn't it dangerous?

If I keep it brief...

...the jerries can't locate it

Hopefully

A potentiometer

- Want to measure my potency? - Why not?

Good morning

I'll make contact

How do they know it's you?

I use a code

I always begin with L.O.V.E.

Guess why

Go!

She's on to something

It stopped

- Well? - You can go

- As a courier - Meaning?

Getting stuff from my group across

That's fantastic

When?

I'll let you know

Imagine, me helping you!

Not a large area

Next time he transmits... he hangs

You seem to be very happy

Did you tell Eric about our engagement?

That's why you're called "Love"

- No, it's a tennis term - What are you on about?

It's the best news I've heard in years

Let me know

"University Excludes Jews" Read "Nation and Fatherland"

Hey, look...

"University excludes Jews"

- Here, we'll give you a hand - Thanks, I can manage

- We're here to help one another - We've got nothing against Jews

That's fine, thank you

No, we're not finished

I hope you're insured against accidents

Just an accident, send the bill to Hitler

Get those things out of the water

- I suppose you're a Jew too? - I am!

I'll kill you, you bastard!

Don't be so stupid!

Get it!

- I won't let them do it - Go out the back way

All the Jewish professors have to leave the university

Yes, I heard

First the professors, then the students

All the Jews will soon find themselves in the Polish salt mines

Student boxing champion and nowhere to go

You can go to England instead of me

How? When?

You'll hear from me

I come for Robby

What's Ian doing here?

He's taking my place

What kind of madness is this?

The jerries don't like Jews

I could have sent Esther

Yes, you could have

Come on, we can't stop here

There it is

To the boat!

- We'll meet again - In London

Hurry!

Here, take this

See that you get it to London

Jerries!

Robby!

I'm stiff from the long trip

The young one first

Come along

- Good morning, commander - Morning

- You could do with some coffee, right? - Smells good

Uncuff him

Would you like a cup too?

You seem surprised. We've provided for you

Sugar?

Don't I get anything with it?

With your second cup

Egyptian cigarettes...

...but quite good, have one

I suppose you were expecting English ones this morning

Mr Weinberg, you realise...

...we want some information from you

I know nothing

I was going to England to fight

The war is over

It isn't for me

Oh yes, it is

People died today

Remain silent and more will die

I don't know any of them

Too bad

Then I'll see...

...if those papers are dry yet

Up!

The English don't send planes for no reason

Who or what did they come for?

I know nothing

You know nothing, do you?

You're tough, aren't you?

Muscles... boxing

Turn him round

Do you have muscles on your kidneys?

Enough, Breitner!

We don't work like that. Have you gone mad?

My dear boy, I'm sorry... Sit down

Drink the rest of your coffee

Drink

So tell me... just tell me what you know

Today's affair wasn't an accident

I wonder who let the cat out of the bag

The information could only have come from London

Van der Zanden... does the name mean anything to you?

Van der Zanden

He is our contact in London

That's not true

It's an open secret

So it makes no difference anyway

I suggest you talk

Talk!

So that's your trick

Butter up a person, then beat him

I know nothing

Breitner will continue working on your case

Speak up! Who was there?

Tell me their names!

I don't know, I don't know

Sorry about that

Tell me what happened

We tried to get Ian over to England, by plane

The big time

- But it went wrong, totally - What a shame

They got Ian

"London Bombing Resumes"

If he talks, I'll hang

Amateurs

Smirking, well-fed bastard! They'll hang me!

So you come to me?

Guus, I need a place to hide

Catch

Key...

To my front door. Stay as long as you like

"Russian Front Collapses"

His lordship

Prick

You'll be safe at my place

Any around?

Up there, thousands of them

They're migrating

A beautiful sight, isn't it?

I'll try to get a bit closer

Is that him?

- And he's not after the birds - Thanks

My money!

You're a good patriot

- Is that all? - It's the rate

Well, if it's the rate...

Two beers

You look pleased with yourself

Will you take these to Nico?

Sure

Photos of German bunkers

What are you up to?

You should be more careful

Scared?

Cheers

Let me go! Too late!

Take them away

Let me go! It's nothing to do with me

- They must have followed me - Nonsense

- Shit. Why me? - It's a risky business

I hope I don't talk

- Do a bunk - How?

Get moving! No talking!

"The traitor is Van der Zanden in London"

Ian!

Come with me

The impudence! On toilet paper!

- You're Lanshof? - Yes

'Yes, sir'

I'll be courteous when you are

Did you write this?

Yes, sir

What did you write it with?

With shit, sir

You must be mad

Is this how one applies for release?

Perhaps I didn't have a pencil

Next time I'll have you shot

You may go

Where?

Home

You can't just let him go

I'm not. I'm having him followed...

I see... bait?

A lure

Exactly. He might try to get in touch with the student resistance

Then you can expect new guests

No problem, we have the space

Either here...

...or in the dunes

I'll leave it to you, commandant. Goodbye

Hello... come in

Let me take your coat

- It's a wonder you're home - That's for sure

Come on in

I stopped by a few times, but you were always out

- I'm back now - Yes, so I see

Sit down

It's a bit of a mess

I was working

Tea?

No, I don't have much time

No need

Robby is back

Has he been... away?

As you very well know. He told me about the plane

We can stop pretending now

Where is he?

In The Hague. He wants to talk to you

Come here

See that man?

He tails me wherever I go

Security Police

Robby wants to see you

Impossible

They'd grab him too

Get Stalin!

Alex!

A friend of yours?

Yes, so what?

Bloody bastards. And they call themselves Dutchmen

How did you make out?

It was touch and go

That vet had quite a go at me on the kitchen table

Decent chap, though

My transmitter is operating again

Join us, Eric

Ian is dead

I've lost the taste for it

You're scared

We were betrayed by someone called Van der Zanden

- How do you know? - Ian told me

And he's in London

We have to pass that on, Eric

Then do it

- You really disappoint me - Too bad

- I'm being watched - Probably

I'm a threat to everyone

We'll decide that

I'll decide for myself

Did you see Robby?

Then we can open the curtains again

Fine

That chap must be wondering...

Let him

Exciting?

No really, its a boys' book

I'll be off then

The curtains were a good idea

Very inventive

Here, your shoes

Are you sure about this?

I want it to happen

Excuse me, sir...

Do you know where Victoria Street is?

Victoria Street? The best way is...

If you turn left there, you come to a square...

...then turn right and...

Come along

Good day

My compliments. It wasn't easy to find you

- What do you mean? - Your transmitter

It's in the garden shed there, isn't it?

- Do you smoke? - No

Do you mind if I do?

Thank you

I have a proposition

Would you work for us in future?

No!

Look

Your fiancée, I believe?

I saw her at Lanshof's

She looks Jewish

Jewish. She'll go to a Polish labour camp

Not so good for the health

Many people die there

Let's go

So won't you reconsider? Will you work for us?

Graduated?

Congratulations, Eric! You're the first of our year

- I thought it would be you - I can't finish yet

Better hurry. The university is closing

Bloody jerries

I've heard some odd stories about you. The resistance?

All over and done with

- I'm happy to hear it, Eric, we must... ...consider the future

Let's go for a drink

Diplomas will come in handy again after the war

There's Robby's fiancée!

How nice

I graduated!

Congratulations

Flowers for you

Come for a drink with us

Wait for me

There they are

Two gins, one with lemon

So, you're a lawyer

- What's next? - A holiday

- Where? - On the Riviera

That's impossible with the war on

You're so wonderfully naive

- Where are you going? - To the loo

Nico?

They're after you

You're telling me

Still want to go to England?

Are you joking?

There's a Swiss ship sailing tomorrow. They'll take you

Is it safe?

It's a chance

Nice of you

You're a danger to us

Here are your papers

Your name's Jean de Kuyper

Here

Hurry up, we didn't rent this loo

I'm disappearing for a bit

We've got visitors - your Gestapo

This might take a while

Have another drink

- Real Dutch gin - Prewar

Lt. Thelen, Security Police

Poizer, ship's captain. Two gentlemen from the Greek navy

A drink?

No. You've taken on a Dutch crew

We'd like to investigate them

They're not here yet

But you're sailing in half an hour

That's right: In 28 minutes

I must question the entire crew. You can't sail until we've seen them all

That's for us to decide

Where are they?

One moment

Come with me

There they are

Cordon it all off

Man the gangway! Nobody goes aboard!

Attention!

This is an investigation!

Stop it! That's enough!

Murderers!

A net, lads, before he falls off!

Coming on board, Captain! Hello, Mr Spy!

You're drunk. Blind drunk!

What did he say?

He says you're drunk

Right! When do we sail, captain?

Nobody comes aboard!

What? Nobody?

Nobody!

Hey, chaps, we're not allowed on board! Back to the pub!

Lower away!

Get away from my car!

Get out of it!

Filthy pigs!

That will do

Have them come aboard. At once!

No, I'm fully authorised to have them locked up

They're having a row

The navy will decide this, Herr Lieutenant

Let them board

Come aboard!

Form two lines!

Music!

Attention!

Salute!

Farewell, my little officer

Are you sober?

To the stokehole, hurry

We must sail before they change their minds

- All clear - Thanks

Eric

We're on our way

I'll be damned!

We're off!

- How did you get here? - Nico. And you?

Me too

Mr Precisely

Intermission

England, October 1941

- It's bloody awful here - It won't take long

The only English I know is 'fuck you'

Hi, love

We're going to fly, with the RAF

Are you crazy?

- And you? - The army, it's more peaceful

But the uniform is nicer...

Army

Congratulations. A daring bit of work, your escape

Not really, we managed to get a ship

Not so modest

You're one of 50...

...49 to make it over from Holland alive

Come straight to the Queen when you've finished here

We cherish our freedom fighters

I'll arrange the audience. Ask for General Van de Zanden

Give that to me

Come along

You've read too many thrillers

I can manage from here on

But you lack training

I'll get better

That would certainly please the Germans

Eric! Come and join us

- What's going on? - We're having a cup of tea...

Then we'll have a chat

Aren't you Mr Lanshof?

You may take off your coat and sit down

I'll take this

No, that's where Her Majesty sits

Odd way to come in

He couldn't find the front door

Nice uniform...

- I'm starving - It's coming, Willem

Madam, what do I call her?

You can call her "Your Majesty"

- Is it "My Majesty" or "Your"? - "Your"

It's "Your"

No smoking in her presence

I hear she's strict

- Not very - There she is

I bid you welcome

You are my link with Holland

Your Majesty, may I present:

Willem Dostgaarde...

Guus Le Jeune...

Your Majesty

And Eric Lanshof

Ah... Mr Lanshof

Your Majesty

Won't you sit down?

No, my guests first

So tell me, what is the situation at home?

Home? Which home?

Her Majesty means, the Netherlands

Not good. The Jerries are stripping us bare, Her Majesty

- Those German bandits! - I mean, Your Majesty

But when the war is over...

...what must we do about the fascists?

Don't you worry about those shitheads

Mr Van der Zanden, what does that mean, shitheads?

It's a term, Your Majesty, expressing how we feel about traitors

Right, Mr Lanshof?

- Who said I was a traitor? - Ian...

Shortly before he was killed

And then they simply let you go?

I don't see the connection

It's simple

The Germans wanted you to believe it...

...and then pass the word round

What would they gain by that?

I am head of intelligence and I'm Her Majesty's secretary

They would love the Dutch people to think I was a traitor

They did a good job trying

- So how's the army? - The pits!

- I've got something else for you - What?

A trip

Where to?

To Holland

No!

- How did you manage that? - I didn't, she did

I thought someone was lying in wait for me...

...with a gun

Don't go totally bonkers

Still seeing her?

None of your business

I am

Any progress?

None of your business

No

Forget about her

Shit, I want to sleep with her...

...while I still can

Cold feet? For Holland?

None of your business

We consider your presence in London to be of the utmost importance

Mr Lanshof, come on in

Do you smoke?

Thank you

And you perhaps?

No, thank you, I don't smoke

Let's go for a stroll, I find that very enjoyable

You're returning to Holland, aren't you?

Yes, Your Majesty

I want you to bring several people back with you

Isn't that dangerous?

Our future leaders are in Holland, in the resistance

I want them here

They, at least, are of the people

Aristocracy belongs to the past. Things will be different after the war

The true nobility are the resistance fighters

Don't you agree?

Mr Lanshof?

You're absolutely right, Your Majesty

I hadn't looked at it that way. True nobility...

Is there anything else, Your Majesty?

I wish you success

Idiot, the Queen's got a front row view

Concentrate on this instead of the "neuken"

Stop showing off, you'll be shitting your pants

I'm not even wearing pants

Here: A matchbox to keep it in

Shit, that stuff smells disgusting, enough to make you puke

Go on, puke

We've stopped

Throw some over me

Cheers

Be careful

Germany Winning on all Fronts

Filthy Jew

Good Morning

I'd like birth announcement cards for my daughter

What's her name?

Wilhelmina Juliana Bernardina

Come, they're waiting for you

- Is this address safe? - We'd not be here if it wasn't

You're a Red, aren't you?

I remember seeing you in the House

Hardly a pleasant experience

Possibly, but I don't recognize you at all

Gentlemen, please...

I can't be part of this. I refuse

You've pledged yourself to Her Majesty

I promised the Germans I would take no action

General, the Queen has asked you to be her advisor...

...for the postwar democracy

Wilhelmina and democracy, a belated vocation

Or rather, she's always been a little touched

Religion

This is her chance to play Christ, to save the world

Count me out

A rotten way of saying you're scared

If I were 20, I'd take exception to that. Gentlemen...

Do you have doubts about the new democracy too?

New democracy?

We've never had a democracy

When do we leave?

You'll hear from me

Fine

Can we get caught?

If they get me and not you...

...tell the Queen what the socialists want after the war

I'll warn them

Bloody hell!

Waterproof

Stone dead

Nothing. How can I tell London when we're coming?

They only confirm receipt

Instructions will come tomorrow

- Anything else I can do for you? - No, thank you

I can do more than just transmit

We'll phone if we need you, okay?

Fine

See you tomorrow then

I don't know their plans. They're not talking

Bad show

They'd be on to me if I asked

You're not trying hard enough

Which of Esther's jackets would this go best with?

I'd love to see you against the wall

You'd be right next to me

Bloody hell

Idiot!

A present for your fiancée

Might be the last time

Who's that jerk?

A friend from the resistance

If that's one of your friends...

Darling, we can't always choose our friends

This device uses zinc coins only

Bloody hell...

An odd uniform

- U-boat, I think - Or a destroyer

Stop

Get off

The German Forces claim this bicycle

Filthy, bloody Jerry

Right, beach huts at 11 pm

You're going to England?

Police. On your feet!

They're dead

Bloody hell... That was close

We've got to get out of here. To the car

- What about me? - Find a place to hide

- Where? - I'll fix it

- Fix it? I just shot two Nazis! - Scared?

Yes! Do I have to stay and wait for them?

Get to the car

Don't leave me here

I want to go with you

I object

I decide who comes

I was expressing my opinion

He's coming! I'll answer for him

- He'll need tails - There are some in the garage

Let it ring

They're gone. After them

If things go wrong, don't let them take me alive

This'll do the trick: Cyanide

After them

It worked

No answer?

Where's Robby?

I don't know. He comes and goes

But you're engaged

He's always busy with his transmitter

It's risky transmitting from a regular place, he says

Don't you wear a star?

Forged papers, from Robby

And the liquor, the chocolate... also from Robby?

A man from Robby's group brings it

We can't even get those things in London

Robby's in the resistance. They can get anything

Do you believe that?

I have to go to my parents' place and get my tails

Going to a party?

You could call it that

God, where are you going?

- The lion's den! - Don't worry

If anything goes wrong, I'll shoot

Robby, shut up

Papers, please

My compliments. An excellent forgery

They're the real thing

Mr Precisely

Phone headquarters. We'll cordon off the area

Have you got the tokens?

Ah, this messy tomato sauce

Have the cleaning bill sent to Berlin

The Fuhrer will be happy to pay it

You there, get out of the way

Are you deaf?

We're going to party

I'll join you

- Nice and warm - Oh, you're a heavy one

Stay with us

There'll be dancing!

All right, I will

It saddens me to see you among all these fascist bunker-builders

Oh, it's war

And it's a nice party

I heard you were abroad

Rubbish

I heard you were in London

No, I'm right here, as you see

Shame we're not fighting on the same side

A shame

In a few years the Germans and English will be fighting the communists

I doubt it

We won't see it

We won't survive the war

- I'll see if he's down there yet - All right

To London, old spy

Are you spying for the Germans in London?

Will you bring back some nylons for me?

What a lovely brooch!

The Iron Cross!

- How'd you earn that? - I blew up a Russian tank

- Have it - You earned it, piss off

Spying is a lot riskier...

It's mine

Give it back, damn you!

Guus!

It's running like clockwork

No, we're in trouble

What trouble?

We've been betrayed, by Robby

No, he's with me

He's coming with me

Robby's working for them

Christ Almighty

Where is he?

Up there with the others

Wait for me

Bastard!

Stay where you are! Nobody move!

Run to the beach!

You are surrounded!

If you move, we'll shoot!

- Stay where you are! - Guus!

Don't move! We're opening fire

Split up!

The Hague, November 8, 1942

I deeply regret it

- Mr Van der Zanden? - Your Majesty?

We shall not attempt this again

Thank you very much for your efforts

That'll never get there

So what?

Russia, July 11, 1943

Bread... hungry

Hungry?

We're going

We have to go... Bye

Love from Alex. Your mascot

He'll get a bomb on his head tonight

I'm not a bloody fool

Will you shut your bloody mouth!

He's waking the dead!

Open up

This will shut him up

Wolfenbuttle Concentration Camp December 25, 1944

Nuremberg... good shots, the Jerries

They're not drinking this Christmas

- How much longer? - 15 seconds. Cheers

Bomb doors open?

Bomb doors open

Christmas present ready?

Count down

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2...

Bombs away

And back home

Her Majesty wants you...

...as her aide

Liberation, May 5, 1945

Long live the Queen!

No, thank you, Captain. This, I would prefer to do alone

Couldn't you have accidentally dropped a bomb on that palace for me?

Well?

It's short

It'll grow again

A present from our liberated compatriots

Understandable

I've no hard feelings

I survived

You did too

Yes, that's true

But you're a hero

What will you do?

Work in the garden

Clean up the mess

Jack!

Good Lord, Eric!

Come in!

You look absolutely marvellous

Medals! How did you get them?

Did some flying, dropped some bombs

We scraped through

Don't ask me how

Would you like a drink?

I have a nice wine for special occasions

They closed the university. I took my preliminaries in secret

It was risky... you had to be really careful

We'll simply start where we left off five years ago

Here you are

What are your plans?

I don't know

To the future

Cheers
