Hey, kids. Shut up, will you?
1:07:16
This is the BBC home service.
1:07:19
Here is the 9:00 news...
1:07:21
and this is Armand Adell
reading it.

1:07:24
Up till 8:00 tonight...
1:07:27
165 German aircraft
have been destroyed...

1:07:30
in big scale attacks
attempted by the enemy today...

1:07:34
on London and the southeast.
1:07:37
We lost thirty fighters
with ten of the pilots safe.

1:07:43
Buckingham Palace
has been bombed again...

1:07:46
but no one was hurt.
1:07:54
Yes? Yes, one moment.
1:07:57
It's the air minister, sir,
on the scrambler.

1:08:03
Yes?
1:08:05
Dowding. Look,
our people in Washington...

1:08:09
are having trouble
with the American press...

1:08:11
and it's about today's figures.
1:08:14
German sources there
are saying...

1:08:16
that our claims
are wildly exaggerated.

1:08:22
Hello?
1:08:24
Are you there, Dowding?
1:08:26
I'm here, Minister.
1:08:28
Well, can you verify
the figures?

1:08:32
I'm not very interested
in propaganda.

1:08:36
If we're right,
they'll give up.

1:08:39
If we're wrong, they'll be
in London in a week.
