FEMALE NARRATOR:
It's hard to remember now,

2
00:00:33,833 --> 00:00:36,403
but Europe was like this in 1944.

3
00:00:41,408 --> 00:00:45,512
The Second World War was in its fifth year
and still going Hitler's way.

4
00:00:46,746 --> 00:00:49,249
German troops controIIed most of Europe.

5
00:00:50,650 --> 00:00:53,119
D-day changed all that.

6
00:00:55,689 --> 00:00:59,392
D-day, June 6th, 1944.

7
00:00:59,459 --> 00:01:00,794
When the aIIied forces,

8
00:01:00,860 --> 00:01:03,296
under their commander,
General Eisenhower,

9
00:01:03,463 --> 00:01:06,132
landed on the northern coast of France.

10
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,969
By July, they were able
to begin their own offensive.

11
00:01:10,170 --> 00:01:12,972
By August, Paris was liberated.

12
00:01:15,275 --> 00:01:17,610
Everywhere the Germans retreated.

13
00:01:19,412 --> 00:01:22,315
But with the allied victories
came problems.

14
00:01:22,615 --> 00:01:25,318
Supplies still had to be
driven from Normandy,

15
00:01:25,418 --> 00:01:27,153
over 400 miles away,

16
00:01:27,287 --> 00:01:29,456
and became dangerously short.

17
00:01:29,789 --> 00:01:32,292
The allied advance began
to come to a halt.

18
00:01:34,861 --> 00:01:37,831
Another problem facing
Eisenhower was this.

19
00:01:38,980 --> 00:01:40,300
His two most famous generals,

20
00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:43,803
Patton, who was in the south,
and Montgomery in the north,

21
00:01:44,370 --> 00:01:46,172
disliked each other intensely.

22
00:01:46,773 --> 00:01:50,477
Their long-standing rivalry
had never been more fierce.

23
00:01:51,770 --> 00:01:54,514
There simply were not enough
supplies for both armies.

24
00:01:54,781 --> 00:01:57,851
Each wanted to be the one
to defeat the Germans.

25
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,787
Each wanted to beat the other to Berlin.

26
00:02:02,550 --> 00:02:03,923
ln September 1944,

27
00:02:03,990 --> 00:02:07,160
Montgomery devised
a new and spectacular plan

28
00:02:07,227 --> 00:02:09,796
given the code name Market Garden.

29
00:02:10,230 --> 00:02:13,600
Eisenhower,
under great pressure from his superiors,

30
00:02:13,667 --> 00:02:15,802
finally sided with Montgomery,

31
00:02:15,902 --> 00:02:19,205
and operation Market Garden
became a reality.

32
00:02:20,807 --> 00:02:21,875

00:14:31,371 --> 00:14:34,574
Well, now let's get down to the details.

166
00:14:34,607 --> 00:14:35,775
Firstly, of course,
we should have to have a high level...

167
00:14:35,909 --> 00:14:37,243
(lN GERMAN)

168
00:14:37,277 --> 00:14:39,679
From which direction will their
attack come, and who will command?

169
00:14:39,746 --> 00:14:41,715
Montgomery or Patton?

170
00:14:42,782 --> 00:14:45,452
-Model, what do you think?
-Patton.

171
00:14:46,886 --> 00:14:48,288
He is their best.

172
00:14:48,888 --> 00:14:51,291
Patton will lead the assault.

173
00:14:51,358 --> 00:14:53,927
l would prefer Montgomery...

174
00:14:54,627 --> 00:14:57,970
but even Eisenhower
isn't that stupid.

175
00:15:00,934 --> 00:15:05,138
Bittrich's Panzer troops
need some rest...

176
00:15:05,238 --> 00:15:08,408
if they're to stop Patton.

177
00:15:08,575 --> 00:15:11,644
We should pull them back
somewhere safe.

178
00:15:11,778 --> 00:15:14,447
Safe, quiet, out of the way.
But where?

179
00:15:15,782 --> 00:15:17,217
Arnhem?

180
00:15:21,788 --> 00:15:22,989
Arnhem.

181
00:15:24,891 --> 00:15:26,626
-l'll be in touch.
-That'll be fine.

182
00:15:28,940 --> 00:15:29,596
General, be safe.

183
00:15:31,631 --> 00:15:32,999
HARRY: Why the emergency meeting?

184
00:15:33,660 --> 00:15:35,568
Just keeping me abreast
of the little changes.

185
00:15:35,635 --> 00:15:37,103
How big are the little changes?

186
00:15:37,170 --> 00:15:40,407
l'll answer with typical
British understatement. Gigantic.

187
00:15:40,507 --> 00:15:42,642
For example, they can't
get us all in at once.

188
00:15:42,676 --> 00:15:45,278
Too many men, too much equipment,
not enough planes.

189
00:15:45,345 --> 00:15:47,781
lt's going to take
three days to get the men into Arnhem,

190
00:15:47,847 --> 00:15:49,482
Poles and the British.

191
00:15:49,983 --> 00:15:51,117
How about us?

192
00:15:51,184 --> 00:15:54,154
We'll be all right. Aside from the fact
that we're parachuting in daylight,

193
00:15:54,187 --> 00:15:56,220
we have nothing to worry about.

194
00:15:56,122 --> 00:15:59,526
Daylight? Has it ever been tried before?

195
00:16:00,293 --> 00:16:01,628
Not in a major drop.

196
00:16:01,695 --> 00:16:03,496
You think there might be
a reason for that?

197
00:16:03,530 --> 00:16:04,864
Let's hope not.

198
00:16:05,165 --> 00:16:06,332
What do you think?

199
00:16:06,366 --> 00:16:09,703
lt'll be all right. lt's a no-moon period
anyway. We have to go in daylight.

200
00:16:09,769 --> 00:16:12,539
lt doesn't matter.
Just so they get us over the target area.

201
00:16:12,605 --> 00:16:15,275
Half a mile away,
three quarters of a mile, l'll settle for that.

202
00:16:15,342 --> 00:16:17,510
l don't want to hear anything else.

203
00:16:18,110 --> 00:16:19,379
ls there anything else?

204
00:16:19,479 --> 00:16:21,715
Well, you're my Dutch adviser, Harry.

205
00:16:21,815 --> 00:16:23,717
l forgot to tell you something?

206
00:16:23,783 --> 00:16:26,786
Only that the Germans first tried to take
Nijmegen Bridge themselves

207
00:16:26,853 --> 00:16:29,656
back in 1 940 and got slaughtered.

208
00:16:34,227 --> 00:16:35,295
(SENTRY lN DUTCH)

209
00:16:35,362 --> 00:16:40,734
Go back!

210
00:16:42,869 --> 00:16:44,371
Do as l say!

211
00:16:44,404 --> 00:16:48,308
But my friend lives down the road.

212
00:16:48,975 --> 00:16:52,245
lt's my birthday
and she has a present for me.

213
00:16:53,747 --> 00:16:54,881
Please let me through.

214
00:17:03,890 --> 00:17:05,191
All right. Be quick.

215
00:17:16,770 --> 00:17:18,104
Are your sure about the colors?

216
00:17:18,204 --> 00:17:20,740
l'm sure, Father.
Believe me.

217
00:17:24,100 --> 00:17:25,178
Model?

218
00:17:26,579 --> 00:17:29,549
A field marshal in Arnhem? Why?

219
00:17:30,750 --> 00:17:32,952
The British will have an explanation.

220
00:17:33,530 --> 00:17:34,954
Did you pass on
the message about the tanks?

221
00:17:35,550 --> 00:17:38,240
Of course. But Model is
something more important.

222
00:17:39,592 --> 00:17:41,961
You're a good boy
and a wonderful spy.

223
00:17:42,620 --> 00:17:44,364
Now go and help
your mother with supper.

224
00:17:49,135 --> 00:17:50,203
Sir?

225
00:17:50,904 --> 00:17:52,105
Yes, Fuller?

226
00:17:52,238 --> 00:17:54,474
-We've got some information on tanks, sir.
-What?

227
00:17:54,541 --> 00:17:56,743
Dutch underground reports
from the Arnhem area.

228
00:17:56,810 --> 00:17:58,278
Established their strength?

229
00:17:58,311 --> 00:18:01,147
-No, sir, but l've got some men in...
-Have they been identified?

230
00:18:01,214 --> 00:18:02,282
Not by our intelligence.

231
00:18:02,315 --> 00:18:04,718
So it's the same rumors as before, right?

232
00:18:04,784 --> 00:18:06,920
-l believe these rumors, sir.
-Why?

233
00:18:07,487 --> 00:18:09,989
The general consensus
of opinion is that our opposition

234
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,759
will consist entirely
of Hitler Youth or old men on bicycles.

235
00:18:12,826 --> 00:18:14,561
l don't really know why, sir.

236
00:18:14,627 --> 00:18:17,330
Perhaps because no one
in intelligence does.

237
00:18:17,397 --> 00:18:21,134
l just want to be sure
our airborne carpet consists of live troops,

238
00:18:21,167 --> 00:18:22,569
not dead ones.

239
00:18:23,336 --> 00:18:26,473
l know everybody thinks
l'm overanxious, sir,

240
00:18:27,700 --> 00:18:28,274
but l would like to order another

241
00:18:28,341 --> 00:18:30,243
low-level reconnaissance of the area.

242
00:18:30,310 --> 00:18:33,113
(STAMMERlNG)
lf that's all right with you, sir.

243
00:18:35,810 --> 00:18:36,316
Very well.

244
00:18:37,417 --> 00:18:39,119
-All right, Wilson.
-Sir.

245
00:18:39,185 --> 00:18:40,286
Very well.

246
00:18:40,687 --> 00:18:43,356
-Oh, Fuller. Fuller.
-Yeah. Sir?

247
00:18:43,857 --> 00:18:47,160
l wouldn't be too concerned about
what people think of you.

248
00:18:47,761 --> 00:18:50,630
You happen to be somewhat
brighter than most of us.

249
00:18:51,531 --> 00:18:53,266
Tends to make us nervous.

250
00:19:04,811 --> 00:19:08,214
Naturally we'll do our utmost
to meet your tactical requirements, sir,

251
00:19:08,281 --> 00:19:10,183
but please keep in mind

252
00:19:10,283 --> 00:19:13,219
the one factor which is
crippling all our plans.

253
00:19:13,620 --> 00:19:15,522
lt may seem improbable to you,

254
00:19:15,622 --> 00:19:18,725
but we are desperately short
of transport aircraft.

255
00:19:18,858 --> 00:19:20,600
l am aware of that.

256
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,162
ln fact, l'm surprised
that nobody mentioned it to Monty

257
00:19:22,228 --> 00:19:24,364
when he dreamed up this operation.

258
00:19:24,731 --> 00:19:27,701
l need drop zones
as close as possible to the bridge.

259
00:19:27,834 --> 00:19:29,836
Now clearly this area's no use at all.

260
00:19:29,903 --> 00:19:32,806
Can't have my chaps
landing on the top of chimneys, but...

261
00:19:32,872 --> 00:19:34,741
Now this looks inviting here.

262
00:19:34,908 --> 00:19:37,344
-ROY: What's the terrain like?
-Sorry, sir.

263
00:19:37,410 --> 00:19:41,247
All our reports indicate that this
terrain here is too soft for glider landings.

264
00:19:41,314 --> 00:19:43,160
You see the nose digs in
first on touchdown,

265
00:19:43,830 --> 00:19:44,384
the whole thing goes *** over tip.

266
00:19:44,417 --> 00:19:45,819
Total write-off.

267
00:19:46,386 --> 00:19:47,487
All right.

268
00:19:48,154 --> 00:19:50,323
-What about there?
-No. l'm afraid not, sir.

269
00:19:50,390 --> 00:19:53,426
You see, after the drop,
when we bank for our return,

270
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,563
we run into a whole lot
of flak and rubbish from this Jerry air field

271
00:19:56,596 --> 00:19:58,198
up here at Deelen.

272
00:19:58,431 --> 00:20:01,401
Presumably you're intending
to let us land somewhere.

273
00:20:02,936 --> 00:20:04,704
Oh, yes, hopefully, sir,

274
00:20:04,938 --> 00:20:06,539
but, as l was saying,

275
00:20:07,730 --> 00:20:09,743
we cannot afford to lose a single aircraft.

276
00:20:09,776 --> 00:20:11,277
That is the problem.

277
00:20:11,678 --> 00:20:14,881
My problem is
l don't just need drop zones.

278
00:20:15,448 --> 00:20:17,951
l need drop zones l can hold and defend.

279
00:20:18,718 --> 00:20:21,588
The rest of my division
arrives with the second drop

280
00:20:21,621 --> 00:20:24,570
and General Sosabowski's
Polish brigade with the third.

281
00:20:24,124 --> 00:20:25,458
l understand, sir.

282
00:20:25,525 --> 00:20:27,927
But we really think
we found the right place.

283
00:20:27,961 --> 00:20:31,640
lt's large enough
for your needs, it's flat and firm,

284
00:20:31,464 --> 00:20:33,199
and also easily defended.

285
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:34,634
Well, where the hell is it?

286
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:37,537
Well, it's not actually
on this photograph, but,

287
00:20:37,871 --> 00:20:39,873
it should be... Excuse me, sir.

288
00:20:40,730 --> 00:20:43,243
lt would be, about here, l think.

289
00:20:45,979 --> 00:20:48,148
That could be 1 0 miles from the bridge.

290
00:20:48,214 --> 00:20:49,649
No, just under eight, actually, sir.

291
00:20:49,716 --> 00:20:51,951
lf you'd like to have a look at this.

292
00:20:54,870 --> 00:20:57,323
You see, the terrain is easy to traverse.

293
00:20:57,824 --> 00:21:01,161
All our information substantiates that...

294
00:21:02,462 --> 00:21:03,563
Yes, sir?

295
00:21:04,831 --> 00:21:07,667
Just making sure whose side you're on.

296
00:21:58,318 --> 00:22:01,488
Now a drop zone eight miles
from Arnhem Bridge

297
00:22:01,688 --> 00:22:03,990
might be thought by some
to present problems.

298
00:22:04,570 --> 00:22:05,792
(WHlSPERlNG) My God. He can't mean it.

299
00:22:06,126 --> 00:22:09,195
l'm afraid he does.
He must know what he's doing.

300
00:22:09,362 --> 00:22:11,640
That's more than l know.

301
00:22:11,297 --> 00:22:13,199
Why should he have
the corner of the market?

302
00:22:13,233 --> 00:22:15,335
...cannot under
any stretch of the imagination

303
00:22:15,402 --> 00:22:17,404
be considered ideal,

304
00:22:17,971 --> 00:22:21,341
but the gliders will be bringing in
a reconnaissance squadron ofjeeps

305
00:22:21,408 --> 00:22:24,144
specially fitted with
twin Vickers machine guns.

306
00:22:24,711 --> 00:22:26,246
Now the instant we land,

307
00:22:26,312 --> 00:22:29,490
they will race ahead
to the bridge and hold it

308
00:22:29,816 --> 00:22:32,318
until the other battalions arrive on foot.

309
00:22:32,419 --> 00:22:35,550
And they'll be quick enough to secure
both ends ofArnhem Bridge?

310
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:36,890
Most certainly.

311
00:22:36,189 --> 00:22:38,758
Good, good.
Now if you all know where l shall be.

312
00:22:38,858 --> 00:22:41,261
My headquarters will be
in the center with 82nd.

313
00:22:41,327 --> 00:22:43,930
Nowjust you remember
that we're all totally interlocked.

314
00:22:44,300 --> 00:22:46,232
This is a bottom to top operation.

315
00:22:46,666 --> 00:22:49,569
1 01 st pass XXX Corps on to 82nd.

316
00:22:49,669 --> 00:22:52,500
82nd pass them on to British Airborne.

317
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,420
lf any one group fails,
it's total failure for us all.

318
00:22:58,345 --> 00:22:59,612
All we need now

319
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,115
are three days of clear skies.

320
00:23:02,182 --> 00:23:04,217
Thank you, gentlemen, very much.

321
00:23:05,785 --> 00:23:07,921
Only the weather can stop us now.

322
00:23:08,688 --> 00:23:09,789

324
00:23:14,427 --> 00:23:17,970
General Browning, what of the Germans?

325
00:23:17,697 --> 00:23:20,633
Don't you think that since we know that
Arnhem is so crucial to their safety,

326
00:23:20,700 --> 00:23:22,135
they might know that, too?

327
00:23:22,235 --> 00:23:23,536
BROWNlNG: Now, look here.

328
00:23:23,636 --> 00:23:28,375
The few troops
in the area are second class.

329
00:23:28,475 --> 00:23:30,610
They're not frontline caliber,

330
00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:31,811
not at all.

331
00:23:32,145 --> 00:23:33,580
Do you understand?

332
00:23:33,947 --> 00:23:35,582
l think you ought to
have a little more faith

333
00:23:35,648 --> 00:23:37,384
in Montgomery's
intelligence reports, you know.

334
00:23:37,450 --> 00:23:39,919
He's done pretty well
for us in last three or four years.

335
00:23:39,986 --> 00:23:42,322
l will tell you the extent of my faith.

336
00:23:43,890 --> 00:23:45,892
l am thinking of asking
for a letter from you

337
00:23:45,959 --> 00:23:48,795
stating that l was forced
to act under your orders

338
00:23:48,828 --> 00:23:50,764
in case my men are massacred.

339
00:23:52,799 --> 00:23:53,967
l see.

340
00:23:56,136 --> 00:23:58,104
Yes, l do see.

341
00:24:02,475 --> 00:24:04,177
Do you wish such a letter?

342
00:24:05,779 --> 00:24:06,813
No.

343
00:24:08,415 --> 00:24:09,816
No, of course not.

344
00:24:10,350 --> 00:24:12,180
ln the case of massacre,

345
00:24:12,686 --> 00:24:14,621
what difference would it make?

346
00:24:25,198 --> 00:24:27,801
-You mean you don't believe me, sir?
-STEELE: Well, clearly not.

347

All right, boys.
NAAFl's up. Take your break.

348
00:24:32,539 --> 00:24:33,773
God almighty.

349
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,308
Sorry about that, sir.

350
00:24:35,375 --> 00:24:36,676
But what, then?

351
00:24:36,710 --> 00:24:39,145
l just don't believe
these damn radios are strong enough

352
00:24:39,212 --> 00:24:42,480
to carry the eight miles
from the drop zone to Arnhem Bridge.

353
00:24:42,115 --> 00:24:44,184
Don't happen to have
any cigarettes, do you, sir?

354
00:24:44,217 --> 00:24:46,286
-No.
-They're perfectly okay.

355
00:24:46,553 --> 00:24:48,555
l've used them
God knows how many times.

356
00:24:48,655 --> 00:24:51,124
You've already told me that
God knows how many times.

357
00:24:51,191 --> 00:24:54,361
Well, l didn't have
any problems with them in the desert.

358
00:24:54,661 --> 00:24:55,795
Yes, l know.

359
00:24:56,620 --> 00:24:58,365
You see, Cole, what bothers me,

360
00:24:58,398 --> 00:25:00,900
what genuinely and truly
has me more than a bit disturbed,

361
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,869
is that Holland being half under water,

362
00:25:02,902 --> 00:25:06,720
is somewhat soggier
than most deserts you're apt to find.

-Any biscuits?
-Your biscuits are in your tin, sir.

365
00:25:14,147 --> 00:25:16,683
Shouldn't you tell the General if you're
so certain about it, sir?

366
00:25:16,750 --> 00:25:18,752
lf l were, believe me, l would.

367
00:25:19,252 --> 00:25:21,540
What if they really don't work?

368
00:25:21,870 --> 00:25:22,655
Well, what difference will it make?

369
00:25:22,722 --> 00:25:25,258
The General will be
on the bridge himself by nightfall.

370
00:25:25,358 --> 00:25:27,930
He won't have to make contact
with the bridge

371
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,194
if he's on it.

372

Will he, sir?

it's not gonna be me.

Splendid view of the Dutch countryside.
Can't see any tanks.

00:26:01,594 --> 00:26:04,931
Wait a moment, sir.

But, sir, you see that they are tanks.

00:26:51,411 --> 00:26:53,680

-Still got guns.
-So have we.

Sir, if they weren't serviceable,

396
00:27:02,956 --> 00:27:04,791
why would they try to conceal them?

Normal routine, Fuller.

398
00:27:07,527 --> 00:27:09,863
But, sir, we keep getting reports
from the Dutch underground.

399

l've read them

400
00:27:11,598 --> 00:27:13,800
and so has Field Marshal Montgomery.

401
00:27:14,367 --> 00:27:15,635
Now look here,

402
00:27:16,603 --> 00:27:19,806
there have been thousands of photographs
from this sortie and from all the others.

How many of them have shown tanks?

404

Just these, sir.

405
00:27:23,977 --> 00:27:26,179

asking us to cancel

No, sir.

01:25:27,327 --> 01:25:29,662
-Hello, sir.
-lt's all right. Sit down. All right?

969
01:25:29,696 --> 01:25:32,198
-Fine, sir, it's only a flesh wound.
-Oh, good.

970
01:25:32,298 --> 01:25:33,433
How are things?

971
01:25:33,500 --> 01:25:35,201
-Not too bad, sir.
-Good.

972
01:25:36,970 --> 01:25:38,872
Well, what is bad, l'm afraid, is this.

973
01:25:38,972 --> 01:25:40,273
-Careful.
-Sorry, sir.

974
01:25:40,340 --> 01:25:42,509
We hold the north end of the bridge,

975
01:25:42,542 --> 01:25:43,943
Germans hold the south.

976
01:25:44,100 --> 01:25:46,713
But now they probably
control most of the town,

977
01:25:46,813 --> 01:25:48,515
including the church tower.

978
01:25:48,548 --> 01:25:50,884
So, what you're saying
is that we're surrounded?

979
01:25:50,950 --> 01:25:52,686
Yes, something like that.

980
01:25:53,119 --> 01:25:54,821
-Now, what else?
-Sir.

981
01:25:55,955 --> 01:25:59,492
l was a bit surprised
to find Bittrich's Panzer troops here, sir.

982
01:26:07,567 --> 01:26:11,400
Yes, well, surely you didn't believe
all that nonsense they told us, did you?

983
01:26:11,710 --> 01:26:13,206
l mean, about the enemy
being made up of,

984
01:26:13,239 --> 01:26:16,309
what was it, old men, children?

LATHBURY: Well, Sergeant, how is it?

988
01:26:23,516 --> 01:26:25,685
Sir. We can't clear the street, sir.

989
01:26:25,752 --> 01:26:27,220
Enemy strength keeps increasing

990
01:26:27,253 --> 01:26:29,322
and it's just impossible
to get through to the bridge.

-That's all. Thank you, Sergeant.
-Sir.

Gerald, it's imperative
that l get back to HQ

993
01:26:33,930 --> 01:26:34,928
before the situation
gets completely out of hand.

994
01:26:34,994 --> 01:26:36,329

01:29:38,912 --> 01:29:42,415

has a certain amount to do with it.

flying 50 miles to the south.

and equipment cannot be moved

whether we like it or not,

fog, it moves.

1024
01:30:01,935 --> 01:30:03,770
Of course, it moves. Where?

1025
01:30:04,371 --> 01:30:06,106
Well, that's very difficult to say, General.

Now, you think you've got it and then it,

1028
01:30:11,378 --> 01:30:14,180
it reverses itself and leaves you behind.

1029
01:30:15,281 --> 01:30:17,500
Won't you please sit down?

1030
01:30:18,451 --> 01:30:20,253
What l'm trying to say, General,

1031
01:30:20,286 --> 01:30:22,756
is, l mean, even if we move
your troops the 50 miles,

1032
01:30:22,789 --> 01:30:25,425
where, l grant you,
just now the sun is shining,

1033
01:30:25,458 --> 01:30:27,527
the chances are that
by the time we get there,

1034
01:30:27,594 --> 01:30:30,296
the fog could quite easily
have preceded us.

1035
01:30:31,464 --> 01:30:33,990
So we simply have to wait.

1036
01:30:33,133 --> 01:30:34,467
And do nothing?

1037
01:30:34,868 --> 01:30:36,970

01:57:07,894 --> 01:57:10,196
He should have been here by now.
He must be having

1283
01:57:10,230 --> 01:57:12,866
difficulties coming through
the German lines.

1284
01:57:13,700 --> 01:57:15,402
Well, in that case,

1285
01:57:16,169 --> 01:57:18,571
we will have to ask you for a decision.

1286

Colonel Weaver has a request to make.

1287
01:57:21,975 --> 01:57:25,912
Well, what we've done is
we've set up a defensive pocket,

1288
01:57:26,479 --> 01:57:30,650
more or less thumb-shaped,
with the river as the base.

Oh.

1291
01:57:35,522 --> 01:57:37,590
Well, then you understand
that we're in quite a strong position

1292
01:57:37,691 --> 01:57:40,393
for holding out until
XXX Corps reaches us,

1293
01:57:40,760 --> 01:57:43,163
but we have to make
certain arrangements.

You understand that we have great need
of additional space.

1300

are hanging on by their fingernails.

from the far embankment.

an extra hour's fun and relaxation.

-Major.
-Yes?

1428
02:07:37,657 --> 02:07:40,126
We got any more information
on those boats?

1429
02:07:40,193 --> 02:07:42,562
We're reliably informed that they float.

1430
02:07:43,290 --> 02:07:45,165
Outside of that, we don't know squat.

1431
02:07:45,198 --> 02:07:47,901
Not how many,
not how heavy, not how big.

1432
02:07:48,668 --> 02:07:52,338
We are sure that the river is wide
and that the current is strong.

1433
02:07:52,706 --> 02:07:54,841
And as any more
cheery information comes my way,

1434

1435

ln the meantime,
just think of this as on-the-job training.

02:08:24,571 --> 02:08:26,740
Come on! Clear it off the road!

1440
02:08:59,390 --> 02:09:03,109
You men are probably wondering
why l've called us here together.

1441
02:09:04,577 --> 02:09:08,381
l've reached a decision
that l'd like to share with you all.

1442
02:09:10,216 --> 02:09:12,752
l intend to go across
like George Washington,

1443
02:09:12,786 --> 02:09:14,320
standing on the prow.

1444
02:09:15,880 --> 02:09:16,890
You guys can do the rowing.

1445
02:09:24,631 --> 02:09:26,399
That's it! Move them out!

1446
02:09:35,308 --> 02:09:36,576
Come on.

1447
02:09:43,983 --> 02:09:45,118
What the...

1448
02:09:45,819 --> 02:09:49,622
What'd you expect, destroyers?
Come on, put it together. Unload them!

1449
02:09:58,832 --> 02:10:00,333
Careful. Careful!

1450
02:10:03,837 --> 02:10:06,139
Pull it! Son of a *****! Pull it up!

1451
02:10:06,906 --> 02:10:08,208
How many more?

1452
02:10:08,308 --> 02:10:09,676
Get those sides up.

1453
02:10:09,776 --> 02:10:10,977
Fire!

1454
02:10:17,851 --> 02:10:18,885
(lN GERMAN)

1455
02:10:18,985 --> 02:10:20,520
What else can you see
besides smoke?

1456
02:10:20,620 --> 02:10:23,990
Nothing yet, but they are
going to try a river assault.

1457
02:10:25,191 --> 02:10:26,459
lt will fail.

1458
02:10:26,526 --> 02:10:29,229
Of course it will fail, but...

1459
02:10:29,329 --> 02:10:32,332
what do we do if it doesn't?

1460
02:10:32,365 --> 02:10:35,350
l ask your permission
to blow up the bridge.

1461
02:10:35,135 --> 02:10:36,636
Out of the question.

1462
02:10:38,605 --> 02:10:40,673
l understand, Field Marshal.

1463
02:10:41,641 --> 02:10:45,712
They will not cross the river
and we will blow no bridges.

1464
02:10:45,812 --> 02:10:47,714
Have the demolition charges
been checked?

1465
02:10:47,814 --> 02:10:50,750
Yes, sir.
Everything is wired and ready.

1466
02:10:50,850 --> 02:10:53,687
Captain Kraft
is standing by as ordered.

1467
02:10:55,221 --> 02:10:58,625
The bridge will not fall
into enemy hands.

1468
02:10:59,325 --> 02:11:02,328
As soon as the first
British tank starts to cross...

1469
02:11:03,463 --> 02:11:04,764
l'll blow it sky-high.

1470
02:11:17,811 --> 02:11:20,914
-Let's get going!
-All right! Go, go, go!

1471
02:11:40,330 --> 02:11:43,360
Hurry, get to the water!
Go on, go on, go, boy, go!

1472
02:11:50,543 --> 02:11:52,780
Let's go, come on!

1473
02:11:56,182 --> 02:11:58,840
Jump in, boys. Let's move.

1474
02:12:04,624 --> 02:12:07,293
lf you don't have an oar,
use your rifle butt!

1475
02:12:07,360 --> 02:12:09,295
Anything! Row! Row!

1476
02:12:34,921 --> 02:12:36,623
(CHANTlNG) One! Two!

1477
02:12:44,130 --> 02:12:46,933
The current's taking us down.
Stay to your right!

1478
02:12:54,174 --> 02:12:57,177
-Support fire ordered, sir.
-GAVlN: Right. Thank you.

1479
02:12:59,612 --> 02:13:00,847
Row!

1480
02:13:18,965 --> 02:13:20,166
Get down!

1481
02:13:24,871 --> 02:13:30,543
Go! Go!

1482
02:13:33,460 --> 02:13:37,384
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1483
02:13:37,884 --> 02:13:39,185
Hail Mary.

1484
02:13:39,219 --> 02:13:40,687
Over to the right!

Hail Mary, full of grace.
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1486
02:13:43,823 --> 02:13:44,991
Hail Mary...

02:13:49,562 --> 02:13:53,566
Hail Mary, full of grace.

(CHANTlNG) One! Two!

1489
02:13:57,570 --> 02:13:59,539
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1490
02:14:01,808 --> 02:14:03,276
Keep rowing!

1491
02:14:05,578 --> 02:14:06,913
Straight ahead!

1492
02:14:09,820 --> 02:14:15,522
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1493
02:14:16,489 --> 02:14:18,124
We're drifting! Pull to your left!

1494
02:14:18,224 --> 02:14:20,760
-Come on, pull!
-COOK: Hail Mary, full of grace.

1495
02:14:23,430 --> 02:14:25,765
Go, boys. Keep rowing!

1496
02:14:26,320 --> 02:14:28,101
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1497
02:14:29,169 --> 02:14:32,906
Hail Mary, full of grace.
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1498
02:14:34,607 --> 02:14:35,742
Stay down!

1499
02:14:37,770 --> 02:14:38,144
Hail Mary.

1500
02:14:38,545 --> 02:14:39,879
Come on, boys!

1501
02:14:40,847 --> 02:14:42,649
COOK: ...full of grace. Hail Mary.

1502
02:14:44,117 --> 02:14:47,987
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1503
02:14:49,956 --> 02:14:54,127
Thy will be done.

1504
02:14:54,227 --> 02:14:56,496
-Hail Mary, full of grace.
-Thy will be done.

1505
02:14:56,596 --> 02:14:58,465
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1506
02:14:58,598 --> 02:15:00,400
Thy will be done.

1507
02:15:06,906 --> 02:15:08,141
Let's go!

1508
02:15:23,456 --> 02:15:25,492
Snipers! Snipers!

1509
02:15:36,903 --> 02:15:42,375
Help me. Help me.

1510
02:15:59,859 --> 02:16:01,194
Go up the side!

1511
02:16:12,972 --> 02:16:15,742
-Can we make it through the tunnel?
-No way, sir.

1512
02:16:18,445 --> 02:16:20,980
-Get up the bank.
-l'm with you, sir.

1513
02:16:34,160 --> 02:16:35,595
Cover. Cover.

1514
02:16:44,904 --> 02:16:46,720
Come on.

1515
02:16:47,107 --> 02:16:49,750
Let's go. Right here.

1516
02:16:54,414 --> 02:16:55,749
Follow me up here.

1517
02:17:30,450 --> 02:17:33,219
Sergeant! Take four across. Draw fire.

1518
02:17:33,286 --> 02:17:35,755
Harry and l'll go up the side. You cover.

1519
02:17:35,955 --> 02:17:38,558
-Go!
-Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

1520
02:17:44,130 --> 02:17:46,433
-Come on.
-Come on! Let's go!

1521
02:18:05,985 --> 02:18:07,200
(lN GERMAN)

1522
02:18:07,120 --> 02:18:08,421
Are you ready?

1523
02:18:08,488 --> 02:18:09,656
Yes, General.

1524
02:18:20,166 --> 02:18:21,334
Cover me.

1525
02:18:25,672 --> 02:18:27,440
Damn it. God damn it.

1526
02:18:57,337 --> 02:18:58,371
(lN GERMAN)

1527
02:18:58,405 --> 02:18:59,406
Now.

1528
02:19:01,941 --> 02:19:02,909
Now!

1529
02:19:03,810 --> 02:19:07,470
Again!

1530
02:19:17,230 --> 02:19:18,580
(lN GERMAN)

1531
02:19:18,124 --> 02:19:21,428
My God, they're only
1 8 kilometers from Arnhem.

1532
02:19:22,562 --> 02:19:24,497
Who can stop them now?

1533
02:19:26,433 --> 02:19:27,834
No one.

1534
02:19:47,987 --> 02:19:49,389
Come on!

1535
02:20:00,266 --> 02:20:01,634
Oh, hell.

1536
02:20:02,100 --> 02:20:03,603
Any chance, Whitney?

1537
02:20:03,937 --> 02:20:06,272
Not unless we're relieved
in the next few hours, sir.

1538
02:20:06,373 --> 02:20:07,774
FROST: Harry?

1539
02:20:08,174 --> 02:20:09,876
Try and get him down
to the cellar, will you?

1540
02:20:09,943 --> 02:20:11,444
Very good, sir.

1541
02:20:37,370 --> 02:20:38,238
lt's working.

1542
02:20:38,738 --> 02:20:40,640
l'm through to HQ. Where's the colonel?

1543
02:20:40,740 --> 02:20:42,475
-Down below.
-Well, get him! Get him.

1544
02:20:42,509 --> 02:20:43,843
Colonel Frost!

1545
02:20:43,943 --> 02:20:45,945
-What is it?
-Up top!

1546
02:20:46,746 --> 02:20:48,481
Up top, sir!

1547
02:20:49,416 --> 02:20:51,785
RADlO OPERATOR: lt's headquarters, sir,
on the radio!

1548
02:20:52,520 --> 02:20:53,253
Coming!

1549
02:20:56,790 --> 02:20:59,426
RADlO OPERATOR: Sunray on set.
Pass your message. Over.

1550
02:21:00,460 --> 02:21:02,862
What's your situation, Johnny? Over.

1551
02:21:02,962 --> 02:21:05,298
l hadn't expected the pleasure, sir. Well...

1552
02:21:05,331 --> 02:21:06,866
We're holding out.

1553
02:21:09,369 --> 02:21:13,339
We need reinforcements
and, above all, ammunition. Over.

1554
02:21:13,473 --> 02:21:16,276
l'm not sure if it's a case
of us coming for you,

1555
02:21:16,910 --> 02:21:18,545
or you coming for us.

1556
02:21:18,645 --> 02:21:21,648
Well, we'll just wait for XXX Corps then.

1557
02:21:21,715 --> 02:21:23,316
That would probably be best.

1558
02:21:24,840 --> 02:21:26,486
Very reassuring talking to you, sir.

1559
02:21:28,321 --> 02:21:29,456
l'm sorry, Johnny.

1560
02:21:29,522 --> 02:21:32,726
Getting stuck on that bloody bridge
four days on your own.

1561
02:21:33,259 --> 02:21:34,661
Have you anything else for me?

1562
02:21:34,694 --> 02:21:37,864
No, sir.
l'll give you a call when our friends arrive.

1563
02:21:38,310 --> 02:21:39,366
-Over.
-All right.

1564
02:21:41,334 --> 02:21:44,137
Good luck. Out.

1565
02:21:50,710 --> 02:21:53,380
-Sergeant Tomblin!
-Here, sir!

1566
02:21:53,413 --> 02:21:54,814
l'm coming over!

1567
02:21:55,215 --> 02:21:56,983
Where's the covering fire?

1568
02:21:58,218 --> 02:21:59,586
Sergeant Taylor!

1569
02:22:10,563 --> 02:22:12,932
COOK: l don't understand.
Why aren't you moving?

1570
02:22:13,330 --> 02:22:14,734
What's the matter with you guys?

1571
02:22:14,768 --> 02:22:17,700
Those are British troops at Arnhem.

1572
02:22:17,504 --> 02:22:18,938
They're hurt bad.

1573
02:22:19,873 --> 02:22:22,742
You're not gonna stop, not now.

1574
02:22:22,876 --> 02:22:25,245
l'm sorry. We have our orders.

1575
02:22:25,412 --> 02:22:28,480
We busted our ***es getting here,
half my men are killed,

1576
02:22:28,810 --> 02:22:29,849
and you're just gonna stop

1577
02:22:30,784 --> 02:22:33,520
and drink tea?

1578
02:22:33,586 --> 02:22:36,220
Look, we're now facing
a completely different situation.

1579
02:22:36,890 --> 02:22:37,791
We can't lead with tanks up that road.

1580
02:22:37,891 --> 02:22:40,260
Jerry will pick us off like sitting ducks.

1581
02:22:40,930 --> 02:22:42,295
Our infantry is still fighting in Nijmegen.

1582
02:22:42,395 --> 02:22:44,531
When they get here, we'll move on.

1583
02:22:49,269 --> 02:22:51,871
For Christ's sake,
must you do everything by the book?

1584
02:22:51,938 --> 02:22:54,307
Our orders are to wait for the infantry.

1585
02:22:55,342 --> 02:22:57,110
l'm sorry, but there it is.

1586
02:23:05,118 --> 02:23:06,219
Sir.

1587
02:23:06,920 --> 02:23:08,455
Sir. Sir.

1588
02:23:09,890 --> 02:23:10,790
lt's Major Carlyle, sir.

1589
02:23:18,765 --> 02:23:20,660
FROST: All right.

1590
02:23:24,971 --> 02:23:27,140
All right, Wicks. l'm all right.

1591
02:23:35,215 --> 02:23:38,318
-Hello, Harry.
-Hello, Johnny.

1592
02:23:40,320 --> 02:23:42,322
Things not too good, huh?

1593
02:23:48,962 --> 02:23:51,331
l've been meaning to ask you something,

1594
02:23:51,998 --> 02:23:55,969
and l haven't because
l know you were so anxious that l should,

1595
02:23:57,270 --> 02:23:59,706
and l wouldn't give you the satisfaction.

1596
02:24:02,642 --> 02:24:07,681
But, why the hell
do you always carry that bloody umbrella?

1597
02:24:09,416 --> 02:24:11,618
-Memory.
-What?

1598
02:24:12,519 --> 02:24:14,821

02:42:50,437 --> 02:42:52,605
so our defense will seem as before.

1759
02:42:52,939 --> 02:42:55,408
By the time the Germans
find out what's happening,

1760
02:42:55,475 --> 02:42:57,944
we should all be safely across the river.

1761
02:42:59,679 --> 02:43:02,982
-Pleasant journey.
-ALL: Thank you, sir.

-Are you all right, laddie?
-Thank you, sir.

1763
02:44:58,131 --> 02:45:01,568
l'm beginning to believe
we're actually going to make it, sir.

l thought everyone knew
God was a Scotsman.

1765

General Browning will be
down right away, sir.

1766
02:46:50,543 --> 02:46:53,580
He wondered if you perhaps
might like to change.

1767
02:46:54,180 --> 02:46:55,382
Change?

1768
02:46:55,648 --> 02:46:57,500
Your clothes, sir.

No, thanks.

Hello, Roy.

1772
02:47:22,108 --> 02:47:23,243
How are you?

1773
02:47:24,678 --> 02:47:27,800
l'm not sure that l'll know for a while,

1774
02:47:28,848 --> 02:47:31,351
but l'm sorry about the way it worked out.

1775
02:47:32,919 --> 02:47:34,521
You did all you could.

1776
02:47:36,723 --> 02:47:39,250
Yes, but did everyone else?

1777
02:47:43,229 --> 02:47:46,660
They've got a bed
for you upstairs if you want it.

1778
02:47:47,367 --> 02:47:49,269
l took 1 0,000 men into Arnhem.

1779
02:47:49,602 --> 02:47:51,705
l've come out with less than two.

1780
02:47:52,105 --> 02:47:54,140
l don't feel much like sleeping.

1781
02:47:55,475 --> 02:47:56,643
Quite.

1782
02:47:59,612 --> 02:48:01,448
l've just been on to Monty.

1783
02:48:03,249 --> 02:48:05,850
He's very proud and pleased.

-Pleased?
-Of course.

1785
02:48:09,989 --> 02:48:12,625
He thinks Market Garden
was 90% successful.

1786
02:48:14,594 --> 02:48:16,162
But what do you think?

1787
02:48:19,132 --> 02:48:23,236
Well, as you know, l've always thought
that we tried to go a bridge too far.

1788
02:48:54,634 --> 02:48:55,835
