No, well...
Funny peculiar, I mean.
Are they worse than the Russian ones?
Oh, I shouldn't think so, love.
I expect they're all much of a muchness.
They all work on the same principle.
It's called... megadeath, I think.
So many millions of
people dead per bang.
Any ketchup, dear?
I expect the quantity
Are all the bangs about
the same size, then?
Oh, no! There's one megaton,
and 10 megaton, an' that.
It's... just a question of
how big a bang you want to make
and how many...
people you want to kill.
More baked beans, dear?
No, thanks. I'm a bit off food.
Then there's the... overkill, see?
That's where they kill more
people than they really need to.
Say you want a bang big enough
to kill one million people,
and you go and use a
three-million-people bang.
It's terrifically wasteful of energy,
in the present economic climate.
I see, dear.
Yes, there's one thing about
the present economic situation.
- I mean...
- Such a shame we can't wash up.
...in order to conserve
world energy resources,
the powers that be will only use
Oh, I can't bear it!
I expect that's why we're still here.
We're running out of crockery.
We could say we owe our lives to
the world economic procession.
Put the kettle on, will you, ducks?
There's no water, dear.
Oh, no, no. Of course.
Just... Just have to have milk, then.
That pint's gone bad, dear.
The fridge has been off.
Oh, heck! Well...
...a black coffee, then.
There's still no water, dear.
Well, what... What are we
going to drink, eh? Eh?
What... What... What are we
going to drink, for God's sake?
Don't shout, dearest.
I'm sorry, love.
I'm just... terribly thirsty.
How about a nice sweet, dear?
It's a blackcurrant fruit pastille.
There's only one left.
- You have it.
- No, you have it.
We'll... We'll cut it in half.
That's... That's fair.
- Help!
- I'm coming! I-I-I'm coming! I'm coming!
A rat! A rat!
A rat in the lavatory!
Eeww! I saw it!
Its tail waving in the pan!
Never mind, dear. Never mind.
No, no, no. It won't
hurt you, dearest.
The pan's all dry and its...
head was round the bend...
just its bottom end
sticking out. A tail!
Oh! A tail!
Horrible! Horrible!
There, there, dear.
Don't worry, I... I'll pop down to Willis's
in the morning and I'll get some warfarin.
drains aren't blocked.
Oh, dear!
I do feel queer!
All shaky.
Well, it's bound to upset you a bit.
The... The bomb, I mean.
Have you got... lipstick on, dear?
Lipstick?
What do you mean, James?
You know I haven't
worn lipstick for years.
- Well... your lips are all red.
- Oh!
Oh, my!
My gums are bleeding!
a funny taste.
Well Shrinking of gums, causing ill-fitting
dentures. That's... That's what that is.
Yeah... Better get to the dentist
when the emergency has rescinded.
There was blood when I went
to the toilet this morning.
Yes, yes. Me, too.
P-piles, that is. H-hovaloids.
in middle-aged people like ourselves.
I'll... I'll pop down to... to the chemist
when the crisis pales into insignificance,
and I'll... I'll get some
of those suppositories.
Oh!
Oh, dear.
Now, there, there, ducks.
There, there. There, there.
Now, now. All better now. Now, please.
Don't upset yourself, love.
Please, please. Now, don't dry.
Don't cry. Don't cry.
I expect it's due to the vibration,
you know. Like that day in the car.
You remember that time we
went to Bournemouth, hm?
And you were sick in the coach.
Don't worry, ducks. Don't worry.
There can't be anything
wrong with you.
I expect it's... it's just the...
the after-effects of the bomb.
Oh, I... I... I do...
fancy a nice cup of tea.
Do you think the cows have been
affected by the bomb, dear?
No, I... I shouldn't think so.
They're... They're all
out in the country.
Supplies of milk will be maintained.
It is... essential for the maintenance of...
healthy bones and teeth.
Yes, but we live in
the country, dear.
Yes, yes, yes, I... I know, dear.
Well, the grass is
all dead and funny.
Yes... well...
I don't know.
a temporary containment of supplies.
I suppose we'd better just sit
here and wait for help to arrive.
Yes. The... The emergency services
will have sprung into action
I hope they get here
before the enemy.
Oh, I... I hope Beryl and
Ron got back all right.
Oh, they'll... they'll be all right.
They'll... They'll have been safely
home long... long before the bomb.
Our Ron's... a sensible boy.
At the first siren, he'd get the whole
family down to the shelters right away.
There aren't any shelters, dear.
Oh, no.
No, no, I... I forgot.
But he'll... he'll be all right.
I gave him the governmental leaflet.
He'll... He'll be
all right with that.
That will afford him the maximum
protection available to the populous.
He'll... He'll take cover immediately
and... adopt all the prescribed
precautionary measures.
He... He's no fool, our Ron.
He's not likely to get
hot under the collar.
He... He won't go to pieces.
will stick together.
Oh! Look!
There's funny spots on my legs.
They're various veins.
That's... That's what that is.
That's... That's a common
complaint amongst...
amongst the middle-aged
segment of the populous.
Oh, that's... that's...
that's nothing to worry about.
They don't look like veins to me.
I don't like the look of it.
Oh... Oh, you are... you are a baby!
You're a worn... worn...
born worrier, you are, you know.
Now, you just try and look on
the bright side, eh, ducks? Hm?
Look! Look!
I've even got funny
blotches on my skin, see?
And I... I'm a man.
Yes... Yes, too much tinned food.
That's all that is.
Yes.
Pilchards never did agree with me.
I must put some skin
lotion on those spots.
Yes. Oh, they'll...
they'll soon clear up.
I'll pop down to the chemist...
chemist in the morning.
I'll get some... get some ointment.
Yes.
We could do with some
lozenges or pastilles, too.
- I've still got a terrible throat.
- Yes, so have I.
I wonder...
if they'll be able to
sell us some water.
I'm going to have an
early night, James.
We could do with a good long
Oh, yes, yes. It's bound to take
it out of you, a thing like that.
Yeah, it's a... it's a
shock to the system.
Oh, yes. I expect so.
Oh!
Look!
My hair's coming out!
Don't... Don't worry, dearest.
Don't worry, don't worry.
Women don't go bald. No!
That's... That's a scientific fact.
Shall we get into those
paper bags again?
Well, whatever for, dear?
Well, you never know.
There might be another
one while we're asleep.
Well, I... I suppose it...
wouldn't hurt.
It... It would be a...
a sensible precautionary m-measure
in the... in the...
in the circumstances.
After all, really, this is
