00:00:07♪
00:00:31♪
00:00:43♪ In it all one sing we merrily
00:00:46♪ O'er all chase the breeze
00:00:50♪ Through the spume and through the spigot
00:00:53♪ O'er all chase the breeze
00:00:57♪ Long waves of yonkers shore
00:01:00♪ And far and far from the heart of the sea
00:01:03♪ Riding, falling, head and shoulder
00:01:07♪ O'er all chase the breeze
00:01:11♪
00:01:18♪ Riding, falling, head and shoulder
00:01:22♪ O'er all chase the breeze
00:01:52♪
00:02:16Stand by, we're putting in.
00:02:18♪
00:02:24Mr. Graham, sir, I would not advise more than a temporary visit.
00:02:28Oh, I think we'll risk it.
00:02:30♪
00:02:49It looks deserted.
00:02:55Yes, funny, it doesn't say anything about it here.
00:02:59Your book was right when it was published, Mr. Graham.
00:03:02But you were wrong when you said that nothing changes on these islands.
00:03:06There is not a living soul now on Hurta.
00:03:09The seabirds were its first owners, and now the seabirds have it for their own again.
00:03:14Hurta's the old name for the island, isn't it?
00:03:17Do you know what it means, Andrew?
00:03:19It means...
00:03:20death.
00:03:21Death.
00:03:51♪
00:04:00Got him.
00:04:01♪
00:04:08Andrew, stand the boat back.
00:04:12♪
00:04:41♪
00:05:04♪
00:05:11♪
00:05:35♪
00:06:03Does it mean gone over there?
00:06:05Many died that way, hunting for eggs or after the sheep.
00:06:09Sooner or later a rope frayed or a foot slipped,
00:06:13and it became a word for death on the island.
00:06:16It's a nasty looking place.
00:06:17Aye, it is.
00:06:20♪
00:06:29What's wrong, Andrew?
00:06:30The hells of Scotland.
00:06:32It's a rare thing to see them from Hurta.
00:06:36The old men used to say...
00:06:38What?
00:06:39That it meant bad luck to see the hells.
00:06:41And it's true, I've only seen them once before.
00:06:45There were three of us then, eh?
00:06:47♪
00:06:53It's a Sabbath today, and a fine summer morning.
00:06:59Ten years ago, you'd have seen all the folk on the way to the Kirk.
00:07:04The men in black, and the women neat and bonny.
00:07:10And young John Isbister standing by the gate.
00:07:15The bell would be ringing.
00:07:17♪
00:07:46♪
00:07:59♪
00:08:19You'd better hurry.
00:08:20Aye, I will, I will.
00:08:22♪
00:08:36There, mother.
00:08:39The sunshine will do your rheumatism good.
00:08:41And you'll hear the singing fire.
00:08:43We'll sing extra loud for your grandmother.
00:08:45At least father and I will.
00:08:46I can't answer for Robbie.
00:08:48I could drown your piping treble before I went away, and I've still got the same pair of lungs.
00:08:51And still got the same good opinion of yourself.
00:08:53Oh.
00:09:23♪
00:09:35Good morning, John.
00:09:36Good morning, Robbie.
00:09:37Good morning.
00:09:38Good morning.
00:09:39Good morning.
00:09:40♪
00:10:01You're needing a grin all over your face every time you see Andrew Gray.
00:10:05Morning, Andrew.
00:10:07See the bonny dress Robbie's brought me?
00:10:09All the way back from Aberdeen.
00:10:10Oh, silk.
00:10:12Aye, makes me feel awful sinful.
00:10:14If you talk like that, I'll take it back.
00:10:16You try and get it.
00:10:17You sit by me in the car, please.
00:10:19I mean a certain dress, Andrew.
00:10:21Oh, do you not think people will talk?
00:10:23Good morning, Peter.
00:10:25Good morning, Jameson.
00:10:26♪
00:10:29I'm glad to see that Robbie's back.
00:10:31We'll need his help with the fishing.
00:10:33I was thinking he'd be more useful with the sheep running.
00:10:36As postmaster and captain of the boat, Peter,
00:10:38I have a better eye to our finances than you.
00:10:40And as factor, James, I would remind you I'm responsible to the laird for the sheep.
00:10:44I need no reminder.
00:10:46I found the market for our tweeds in Edinburgh.
00:10:48Nobody's denying it.
00:10:49And as the only elder of the Kirk, I...
00:10:51You might notice, James Gray, that the bell has stopped ringing
00:10:54and that you're delaying us all with this godless discussion on the sabbath.
00:11:04Let the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever and ever.
00:11:08Amen.
00:11:10Let us worship the Lord by singing to his praise
00:11:14in Psalm number 23,
00:11:16June Wiltshire.
00:11:20The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
00:11:23He makes me down to lie.
00:11:25The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
00:11:31The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
00:11:37The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
00:11:43He makes me down to lie.
00:11:52In pastures green he leadeth me, the quiet waters by.
00:11:57In pastures green he leadeth me, the quiet waters by.
00:12:19He said, Thus saith the Lord.
00:12:21Because the Syrians have said the Lord is God of the hills,
00:12:24but he is not God of the valleys,
00:12:26therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hands,
00:12:30and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
00:12:32First Kings 20, 28.
00:12:35Brethren, let not the heathen shame you.
00:12:39The Syrians had already been defeated in battle
00:12:42by such an inferior force of Israelites whom they despised
00:12:46that they thought there was something supernatural about it
00:12:49and ascribed their defeat to the God of Israel.
00:12:52Now, if the Lord has brought prosperity to you
00:12:57or if you have enjoyed success in Christian service,
00:13:01take heed that you do not lift up your head on high.
00:13:07Fourteenth day.
00:13:09The tendency of the human heart towards pride is very strong,
00:13:13but we must always remember that we are nothing more than tools in the hand of the Lord.
00:13:20We have been nothing more than the scythe in the hand of God if we reap the corn,
00:13:25nothing more than the nets if we have brought the fish to shore.
00:13:32So, let us learn from the heels.
00:13:38Sin is limiting the power of the gospel.
00:13:42Some of us at certain times have been inclined to limit the power of the gospel
00:13:47by supposing that only certain sinners...
00:13:53by supposing that only certain sinners obtain the grace of God.
00:14:04Grant sermon, John.
00:14:06One hour and fifteen minutes.
00:14:08Let them beat that in Edinburgh if they can.
00:14:10And mind you, every sentence, sound theology.
00:14:14Sound theology.
00:14:36We'll check the lists and start loading the boats after the Sabbath's over.
00:14:40Aye. It's high tide an hour after midnight.
00:14:43Aye, that's very convenient.
00:14:50Where you go and take a walk, where is?
00:14:55And remember, it's the Sabbath.
00:15:02Behind me, Satan.
00:15:14Hmm.
00:15:33Oh, Robbie, is she real, isn't she?
00:15:36She is.
00:15:38Then I don't know if it was a bite about an hour ago.
00:15:41You know,
00:15:42You know, I've been feeling awful guilty.
00:15:44And all the time you've been stealing a march on me.
00:15:51Polly.
00:15:53Polly Marston.
00:15:56I don't know whether I like it or not.
00:15:57Well, whether you do or whether you don't, she's gonna be your sister-in-law.
00:16:02And tomorrow, Father will know you.
00:16:04When Parliament meets tomorrow, I'm going to speak out.
00:16:07You'll be awful angry.
00:16:08I'm not a child anymore.
00:16:10There are others who think like me. There's James Gray, for one.
00:16:12Andrew doesn't.
00:16:13Oh, Andrew.
00:16:14And what's wrong with Andrew?
00:16:16Nothing much wrong with his nerve.
00:16:17There'd be a deal wrong with his neck if he doesn't take care.
00:16:22Andrew!
00:16:25Tell him to get down!
00:16:27Get down, you frightening ruth!
00:16:40That was a sudden idea.
00:16:42It looked like it.
00:16:44In the old days, you had to show your courage to win a wife.
00:16:47So I said to myself, Andrew and Melania are as good as they are.
00:16:50And Ruth has got to be sure of you.
00:16:52Remember it, Father.
00:16:54That's what Father said.
00:16:55And I'm no likey to forget it.
00:16:57But if a man can't put his arm round his girl without John Knox turning in his grave,
00:17:02then the world's full of sinners.
00:17:07Here's good luck for us.
00:17:10We don't need any.
00:17:14What were you two talking about?
00:17:16You.
00:17:17Well, that's natural enough.
00:17:19Oh, you're not the only one.
00:17:20Robbie's got a bonnet full of beans.
00:17:22You're one, I'm the other.
00:17:24But the busiest of the lot is the girl from Narvig.
00:17:27Robbie!
00:17:29I'm glad.
00:17:32Why don't you bring her over?
00:17:34I'm not bringing her back to Herta.
00:17:36Now or ever.
00:17:38But I'm hoping you and she and Ruth will be good friends and...
00:17:41neighbours for all that.
00:17:43What do you mean?
00:17:45Just that.
00:17:46I like plain speech.
00:17:48You'll have it.
00:17:49You mean you're leaving the island?
00:17:51Aye.
00:17:52Short-handed as we are?
00:17:53Aye.
00:17:54Does anybody know?
00:17:55Only you two.
00:17:58When are you going to tell people?
00:18:00Tomorrow.
00:18:01About Parliament?
00:18:02Aye.
00:18:03Ah, Robbie, man, you've gone over to the other side.
00:18:06Before I went away, I would have said the same as you.
00:18:09But the world's changed, it's bigger, it's easier to get at.
00:18:13Before, we were no worse off than anyone else.
00:18:15But now we're living in an old world.
00:18:18I've got a turn for machinery, I can do things with it.
00:18:20Why should I give it up?
00:18:22What can we hope for, Polly and I, if I drag her back here like a dutiful son?
00:18:26Ah, Robbie, you're too clever for me.
00:18:30You go your way and I'll go mine.
00:18:32Aye, but can't you see that that's final?
00:18:35If you want to run away because the work's too hard for you, or because you're fancy...
00:18:39Leave her out of it!
00:18:41I'd be glad to.
00:18:43I'm as good a man as you are.
00:18:44I could always beat you on the cliffs.
00:18:46You're a stone lighter.
00:18:47Oh, that's nothing.
00:18:51Do you see Westerhefde?
00:18:53To climb Westerhefde without a rope was another of the old trials.
00:18:58Well, what do you say?
00:18:59To make a race of it?
00:19:01Aye.
00:19:06Look!
00:19:09The hills of Scotland.
00:19:30Why forbid it?
00:19:32An odd race like this can settle nothing.
00:19:34I'll not speak here of the defiance in which I've been set by my own son.
00:19:38But I want you to speak of it.
00:19:40Our quarrel affects every man on the island.
00:19:43You keep silent.
00:19:45The boy is right, Peter Manson.
00:19:47We're dealing with a question that each one of us has got to face squarely.
00:19:51It's your homes, and your families, and your future lives.
00:19:55Am I not right?
00:19:57Aye.
00:19:59To know that I'm trying to read my elders any lesson,
00:20:02but a man must think for himself.
00:20:04For hundreds of years now, this parliament has met here every working morning.
00:20:08But in a thousand years, it's never had to face the problem that we have to face today.
00:20:13Year by year, the population's shrinking.
00:20:16Look what happened to Mingolians and Kildon.
00:20:19Islands barren now that once bore a people.
00:20:22What happened in the Hebrides will happen here.
00:20:25What happened in the Hebrides will happen here.
00:20:27You cannot fight against it. You cannot stop it.
00:20:30As I see it, it's every man for himself.
00:20:35That's all I have to say.
00:20:38And I came back here to say it.
00:20:44Well, of course, as you all know, I'm no great hand at public speaking.
00:20:48Except in Kirk, John.
00:20:51Thank you, James.
00:20:53But even then, it takes me a week to make up my sermon.
00:20:56But Robbie here makes out a very good case.
00:20:59And he says we can't fight it.
00:21:01Can't fight?
00:21:03You mean you won't fight, some of you?
00:21:05Look out there.
00:21:07Trawlers.
00:21:09Sweeping the sea with their nets.
00:21:11Loading their boats with fish that belong to us island men.
00:21:15Ruining the new spawn with their damned outer boards.
00:21:20Be my limit.
00:21:22What does it mean to them?
00:21:24A dunt in the head with a lump of coal is all you get if you warn them off.
00:21:28And anyway, what's the good of it?
00:21:29Restrictions.
00:21:31That's what we want.
00:21:32That's what we're afraid of.
00:21:34The damned fools are ruined in their own game as well as ours.
00:21:37They've swept the shoal as bare as this hand.
00:21:39They have to steam further out. That means more coal.
00:21:42And then, where's their profit?
00:21:44Fight.
00:21:46Man, I've fought them and they're like all my life.
00:21:50I've kept a roof over my croft.
00:21:52Brought my children up decently.
00:21:54And then to have you, Robbie, tell me that it's each man for himself.
00:21:58And act as though you spoke for half the island.
00:22:01When you're not two days back from working for the very boats that have ruined us.
00:22:04Three months' work and 63 pounds a show for it.
00:22:07Shillings is what I'd be showing if I'd stayed on her tail.
00:22:09You're no son of mine.
00:22:11Oh, don't take it so hard, Peterman.
00:22:13The boys just said what had to be said.
00:22:16Men we must have and where are we going to get them?
00:22:20Oh, this tale of Robbie's has been in my mind for a long while.
00:22:24Now, if we was to petition the government,
00:22:27there's little doubt but what we get free transportation and a grant of land.
00:22:31I would remind you, James Gray, that that is for the lair to decide.
00:22:35And it's within my province as his back.
00:22:37I respect everybody.
00:22:38This seems a simple enough matter.
00:22:40You agree to race to the top and race we will.
00:22:43Let the man who gets there first have the way of it.
00:22:46If Parliament were to sit for another thousand years,
00:22:49they wouldn't decide it better than that.
00:22:51Well, maybe so, Andrew, but I don't approve.
00:22:54No, it's too risky.
00:22:57You don't think so, Peter?
00:22:59I can see no objection.
00:23:00Well, then, down to the boats.
00:23:02Come on, Dad.
00:23:14Peter?
00:23:15What is it?
00:23:16You're letting the two boys risk certain death.
00:23:18A word from you would stop this race.
00:23:20I have claimed to have them myself three times.
00:23:22But with a rope.
00:23:24Aye.
00:23:28Don't go, either of you.
00:23:30It's a mad way to think of it.
00:23:31It's the only way.
00:23:32Can't you discuss it?
00:23:33Can we pride them?
00:23:34It's no good, Ruth.
00:23:35But you'll both be killed.
00:23:37I felt it when we saw the mountains and the sky.
00:23:40I felt it when we saw the mountains and the sky.
00:23:43And the sun went in the clouds.
00:23:46I'll lose you both.
00:23:49Yesterday, I was so happy.
00:23:51Away now, there's no time to waste.
00:23:53Keep away there.
00:23:54Aye, all together.
00:24:10I can't stop them, Granny.
00:24:33They're going to climb.
00:24:34They won't listen to me.
00:24:40They won't listen to me.
00:24:41They won't listen to me.
00:24:42They won't listen to me.
00:24:43They won't listen to me.
00:24:44They won't listen to me.
00:24:45They won't listen to me.
00:24:46They won't listen to me.
00:24:47They won't listen to me.
00:24:48They won't listen to me.
00:24:49They won't listen to me.
00:24:50They won't listen to me.
00:24:51They won't listen to me.
00:24:52They won't listen to me.
00:24:53They won't listen to me.
00:24:54They won't listen to me.
00:24:55They won't listen to me.
00:24:56They won't listen to me.
00:24:57They won't listen to me.
00:24:58They won't listen to me.
00:24:59They won't listen to me.
00:25:00They won't listen to me.
00:25:01They won't listen to me.
00:25:02They won't listen to me.
00:25:03They won't listen to me.
00:25:05Trailer.
00:25:27Have you chosen your route, Cihai?
00:25:28Up the east side as far as the barren and straight
00:25:30along up by the trunk.
00:25:31Aye, the old way.
00:25:32We used to go egg hunting.
00:25:33But remember, there's no rope this time.
00:25:35Oh, I don't like it if I get it.
00:25:36I'm for the sooth face.
00:25:37And up the chimney and over the devil's elbow.
00:25:39It's longer, but I'll make better time.
00:25:40You'll have to.
00:25:43It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:25:45Are you ready?
00:25:48Don't forget, when you get to the burn,
00:25:49take the right channel.
00:25:51The left's shorter, but it's no good.
00:25:52You'd never get back.
00:25:53Don't forget the right channel.
00:26:03It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:26:05It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:26:07It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:26:09It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:26:11It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:26:13It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.
00:26:15It's a grand treat we're giving the folk.

00:35:49I love you, Ruth.
00:35:53Father's a hard man to understand.
00:35:55A hard man, you mean?
00:35:57Oh, no worse than you all are.
00:35:59You said yourself you won't hear my name spoken since Robbie died.
00:36:03Well, you can't blame him for that.
00:36:05No?
00:36:07Will I speak to him?
00:36:10You'll never let us marry.
00:36:12No.
00:36:13But we don't need his permission, do we?
00:36:19You know we do.
00:36:21And if he won't give it?
00:36:25Then we'll just have to wait.
00:36:27I've waited long enough.
00:36:30We're too few to bear a grudge long.
00:36:33Not a day passes that I don't cross your path or you mine.
00:36:38Do you and your father want to drive me off the island?
00:36:41Do you think I don't care about Robbie?
00:36:44Do you think I forget that he was your twin brother and my best friend?
00:36:49We were to be married today, Ruth.
00:36:54Maybe you've forgotten that.
00:36:57Ruth, I'm sorry.
00:37:12James?
00:37:14Aye?
00:37:15You'll be speaking to him?
00:37:17Hmm?
00:37:19About Peter and Andrew Gray?
00:37:22Aye. Oh, I will not.
00:37:30I'm sorry.
00:37:32I'm sorry.
00:37:34I'm sorry.
00:37:36I'm sorry.
00:37:38I'm sorry.
00:37:41Is the laird there?
00:37:45I cannot see him.
00:37:48That's him.
00:37:50Aye.
00:37:52And he was only 24, poor laddie.
00:37:55Very hard on Peter to lose them both.
00:37:57Aye, it was.
00:37:59And he's not the sort of man that can share his troubles with other people.
00:38:02Oh.
00:38:04166 yards of tweed.
00:38:06Correct.
00:38:09600 pounds of wool.
00:38:13The boy and the girl both feel it very deeply.
00:38:16It's always worse for those that have left.
00:38:18Aye.
00:38:21Well, with the exception of the jerseys, that'll be all.
00:38:24I'll away in and finish my reports.
00:38:29It's three months ago and nobody can do anything with a man.
00:38:33I'm thinking that so long as he sees me every day, he can't help hating me for what I've done.
00:38:38There's no reasoning with him.
00:38:41I'm best out of the way.
00:38:49But she'll only do as he wishes.
00:38:51It's natural enough.
00:38:53She's all he's got left.
00:39:04I'll see what I can do.
00:39:07You won't move him.
00:39:28I've been talking to your son, James.
00:39:31He's anxious to go with me to the mainland.
00:39:33But that's just...
00:39:35Oh, I...
00:39:37I thought the lad had that in his mind.
00:39:39He'll be a sad loss to the island.
00:39:42I've always helped you in every way I can.
00:39:45Oh, you have that, Mr Dunbar?
00:39:47But if all you young people leave the island, you'll find it hard to carry on.
00:39:52It'll be a thousand pities if Andrew goes.
00:39:55He's worth two of any ordinary man.
00:39:59I'll make the total the same as yourself, James.
00:40:04Excuse me, Mr Dunbar.
00:40:06I'll have the sheep to seating.
00:40:29Come on, James.
00:40:31It's all right. It's all right.
00:40:33It's all there.
00:40:58Here, mind that box. There are eggs.
00:41:03Carry yourself, son.
00:41:28Goodbye, lad.
00:41:58Goodbye, son.
00:42:58THE END
00:43:28THE END
00:43:50No much hurt on them yet, John?
00:43:53It's the salt spray that blows over early in the year.
00:43:57It'll be a poor harvest.
00:44:00It will.
00:44:02And the peat's giving out.
00:44:04I'm back to my old workings now.
00:44:07And what can I do without the peat, James?
00:44:10Nah.
00:44:11The plain fact is, Robbie was right, poor boy.
00:44:15We'll win through this winter, but never another.
00:44:18Peter'll just have to face the facts.
00:44:21You know, James, someone'll just have to speak to Peter.
00:44:25Uh-huh.
00:44:26Have you any idea where he is now?
00:44:29Oh, he'll be away after the sheep on the cliff.
00:44:55THE END

00:54:14I'll keep you.
00:54:44Let's go.
00:55:00Here, one of them will be picked up.
00:55:02Aye, but they're not going too far south.
00:55:04No, no. This one will take them right among the fishing fleet.
00:55:44I don't think you're from McPhee anywhere.
00:55:46McPhee?
00:55:47Oh, aye.
00:55:48That's his boat over yonder.
00:55:57Hello, Wally!
00:56:00I'll be a full crew!
00:56:14I'm looking for you, lad.
00:56:25Andrew Gray, isn't it?
00:56:27Yes.
00:56:28From Herta?
00:56:29Yes.
00:56:30Robbie Manson was my engineer.
00:56:31Robbie?
00:56:32Aye, a good boy.
00:56:33He was.
00:56:34I'm glad to meet one of his folks, so to speak.
00:56:38I'm glad I met you, Skipper.
00:56:40I've a letter for you.
00:56:42You have?
00:56:43Aye.
00:56:44One of these little mail boats.
00:56:46Picked him up last Wednesday off Sombra Head.
00:56:48Where is it?
00:56:49Back at the damned trawler.
00:57:13From a lassie?
00:57:24Yeah.
00:57:25She'll be looking for you.
00:57:26Aye.
00:57:27It's too far to swim, lad.
00:57:30We're leaving tonight.
00:57:32Do you still feel particular?
00:57:34Because there's no reason why we shouldn't shoot trawler off Herta.
00:59:05Aye.
00:59:06Aye.
00:59:07Aye.
00:59:35Aye.
00:59:39Aye.
00:59:43Aye.
00:59:47Aye.
00:59:51Aye.
00:59:55Aye.
00:59:59Aye.
01:00:05Aye.
01:00:11Aye.
01:00:17Aye.
01:00:24Aye.
01:00:30Aye.
01:00:36Aye.
01:00:42Aye.
01:00:49Aye.
01:00:54She can't breathe.
01:00:56Would it be the crook, do you think?
01:00:59I don't know.
01:01:02Oh, if only we got a bigger boat, we could get to the mainland.
01:01:15This gale may blow for a week.
01:01:37Can you make out her name?
01:01:39No, I can't see it.
01:01:42You must be brave, Ruth.
01:01:45It's diphtheria.
01:01:48Then there's only one chance.
01:01:50Oh, dear.
01:01:51I haven't the skill to do an operation.
01:01:54If only we got the wireless we could send for help.
01:01:57Is there no hope at all?
01:01:59None.
01:02:00If we can't, get her to a doctor.
01:02:17Way up and get Ruth in the wade.
01:02:19Right.
01:02:37Oh, dear.
01:03:06Oh, dear.
01:03:26That's Ruth.
01:03:55This way, Doctor.
01:04:10Here's your bag, Doctor.
01:04:12Up there.
01:04:23Skipper.
01:04:26Fetch a kettle of boiling water.
01:04:28A kettle of boiling water.
01:04:29Kettle of boiling water, quick.
01:04:30I have it here.
01:04:31Well, that's fine, then.
01:04:35Well, operate.
01:04:39I've got you both safe now, and you're not going back.
01:05:10Oh, dear.
01:05:24Oh, dear.
01:05:37Oh, dear.
01:06:05Oh, dear.
01:06:34We'll all be on by noon.
01:06:41Aye.
01:06:53What are we going to do about the cats?
01:06:56I'm afraid we'll just have to leave them.
01:06:59I suppose they'll manage to make a living in the cliffs.
01:07:04It's the poor dogs I'm worried about.
01:07:08They're no good as sheepdogs.
01:07:10And who's to pay for taking them?
01:07:12Aye, and then there's the licenses, you know.
01:07:16They'd better be drowned.
01:07:17Oh, but maybe when we get over to the mainland, somebody might buy them.
01:07:22Are you willing to risk that or do your own pocket?
01:07:24For I'm not.
01:07:45James, man, on the way up the cave,
01:07:48one of the daft collectors offered me five pounds for a guillemot, say.
01:07:55I know just where it is.
01:08:15Here, man.
01:08:27Tie up his dog.
01:08:31And throw them with the others.
01:09:25Aye.
01:09:53Aye.
01:10:13Aye.
01:10:33Aye.
01:10:53Aye.
01:11:13Aye.
01:11:23Aye.
01:11:33Aye.
01:11:43Aye.
01:11:53Aye.
01:12:03Aye.
01:12:13Aye.
01:12:23Aye.
01:12:33Aye.
01:12:43Aye.
01:13:01Speecher!
