Now, ladies and gentlemen, transcribed the first act of Waterloo Bridge, starring Miss Norma Shearer in the role of Myra. The year was 1939, a regrettable year, miserable dark maniacal. War crowds long gathered and able to carry their swollen burden and come apart from the scenes.

The Nazi vouchose in the throes of spreading his vicious tentacles to entrap the world. On Waterloo Bridge, hair streaked grey, Colonel Roy Cronings stood staring at an object in his hand. Tenderly, he looked at the good luck charm, and caressingly he held it.

In his eyes there was a look of loneliness. It was as if he was searching into the past, groping desperately for the happiness and heartbreak that began hair on Waterloo Bridge in another war. The First World War, 1917.

Never mind your bag now, Miss. They're out to strait this bridge. We better get in a shower, come on. Not till I pick up my good luck charm, Captain. You little fool, are you tired of life?

I've had it for years, if things did not. Such as air raids? Oh, thank heavens, I've found it. Now, Captain, do you think it'd be un-military, if we were to run? Let's go. Come along.

Hurry. That one was close. That one was safe here. There may be some space over there, but the war shall be wriggled through all right excuse us, please I'm sorry We are walking along I lost my friends in the crush I hope I'm not late for the theater Are you an actress I know I'm a dancer madam all good currovers international bad-aid you pirouette and all that sort of stuff
