Mainwaring, Men on Wilson's side and others in “Unfinished Business”

[Inside the church hall, Captain Mainwaring and his men are continuing their lecture with tin cans and pieces of string]

Now, you're not going over when I say "over". So let's do it in turns, shall we? All my file will say it first, and then Wilson's file say it after. Right, one, two, three. [Speaks through his can] Over.

MOMen on Wilson's side

Over.

MOMen on Mainwaring's side

Over.

MOMen on Wilson's side

Over.

That's better.

I think I've got the hang of it, sir. Can I do it on my own?

We're not quite ready for that, Jones.

Oh, let me go solo, let me go solo sir.

Oh, very well.

This should be good.

[speaks through his tin] Hello, all stations. Charlie One. Hello, all stations. Charlie One. Report my signals, all stations. Charlie One. Over.

[off camera] Blimey.

That was very good, Jones.

Thank you, sir.

Excellent. You got that quite correct.

Thank you very much, sir. I bet they all thought I couldn't do that.

You did it beautiful.

Yeah, I'm not such a fool as I may think I am.
