:06:05
And I didn't mean to be rude.
:06:07
Sorry, Pipey.
:06:09
- Good night.
- Good night.
:06:16
Well, gentlemen, I have news for you.
:06:20
All of you!
:06:23
You ignorant men.
:06:25
News that'll affect you all.
:06:28
Tomorrow,
there's a new colonel coming...
:06:31
and he'll be taking over the battalion.
:06:36
Are you receiving me loud and clear?
:06:38
- No, Jock, you're pulling our leg.
- It's true what I'm telling you.
:06:43
Ask the adjutant there.
Jimmy knows right enough.
:06:47
- It's true.
- It doesn't surprise me.
:06:49
They were bound
to catch up with him sometime.
:06:51
- Let 'em try
- I didn't call for comments...
:06:53
one way or the other.
:06:56
- It's just a fact.
- Who is it, Jock?
:06:59
Uh, Basil Barrow.
:07:01
Major Barrow? I remember him.
He lectured at Sandhurst.
:07:04
He's a stickler for detail,
but a marvelous lecturer.
:07:06
He was out east.
He's an expert on jungle warfare.
:07:09
Half his family were colonels here.
:07:13
Well, he
He's really quite all right.
:07:16
I mean, he's
he's frightfully bright upstairs.
:07:18
Aye, he's a great success...
:07:21
as a lecturer.
:07:23
Quite a turn with the cadets.
:07:27
Colonel Barrow, Eton and Oxford,
joined the regiment in 1933.
:07:32
He was only with it a year or two
before being posted on special duties.
:07:35
It's as Simpson says.
He's bright upstairs.
:07:42
That's his, uh,
granddad's ugly mug...
:07:46
hangs halfway along the hall there.
:07:49
Aye, I know all about him,
you see that.
:07:53
Well, he's to command the battalion.
And I'll have another dram.
:07:58
- What about you
- Aye, and what about me, china?
