Speaker 1 (00:34):

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Michael Redgrave se as Forester's indomitable man of the Sea,
Horatio hornblower Man, It's a discontented animal. Even when I
(02:04):
finally retired and had nothing to do but relive my
past in memory, and sometimes long for the physical activity
which I can know can be mine no more. But
in those days I was still vigorous, and it had
been too long on land, the endless round of social
activities at Paul, and I was beginning to get into
the pitch of a ship under me, and the sting
(02:24):
of the channel wind on my face. I was bored
as I sat in Westminster Abbey, dressed in crimson and
white and laden with regalia, listening to a dull sermon,
while the round made the beautiful building blazed with the
colors and arms of fellow knights and nobles. I sat
in a stupor of boredom, which was suddenly broken into
by a whispering naval lieutenant who appeared at my elbow.
(02:48):
Compliments of lords and pigeons. His lordship would like a
word with you immediately with me. Oh, I will tell
his lordship that I'll come this instant who desired to say,
mame a lot. Uh order ready fully immediate active service

Uh uh yes, mordern On, what service suppression of mutiny?
It's like ninety four over again.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Did you ever know Chadwick, Lieutenant uh Augustine Chadwick.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Uh yes, yes, he was a midshipman with me and
the perliud. Oh he's it.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Ah, here's my culture last year.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
I will drive you to the Admiralty and.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Give you your orders.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
And I jumped in home.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Blur u.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Chadwick had the eighteen gun brig flat. The crewis musin
it in the Bay of the Seine, and they're holding
him and the other officer's hostage. They turned the master's
mate in four loyal hands adrift in a gig with
a with an ultimatum adrift to the Edmiralty. Uh huh
uh dear, the gig made Bembridge last night, and uh
uh is the papers he brought?
Speaker 2 (04:02):
What's the ultimatum?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I order?
Speaker 4 (04:04):
They want an end nasty b lost me.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Wait to hang Chadwick and forgive the loss of them,
or they'll they will hand the brig over to the
French of crazy fools. Yeah, mind you, if possible.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
They had some courts. Chadwick's in his fifties and still only.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
A left tenant.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
He was always a bit tempered, and lack of promotion
made it worse.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
The coach drew it to the Admiral of the yard,
and I followed the first Lord to his room.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
I give you a free hand, and you can set
about it anyway you like.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Hm.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I can say you three ships of the line if
you want them, a couple of frigates, bomb vessels that
even a rocket vessel of you that you could use it.
It doesn't seem a sort of situation where a sheer
force would very much use. My lord, will you give
me full powers well to negotiate for instance, No, damn it,
I will not negotiate.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I know what you're up against.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
It and swine and slip into the mouths seen and
give themselves up at the first sign of dangers. Well,
if I do that, Bonaparte will have his finest propaganda story.
In twenty years.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
I knew it brings the needed here. Now, that's why
I sent for you. Besides the seamen like you on blower.
They follow you and listen to you.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
But if you want me to talk to them, it
implies that I'm negotiating.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Will no negotiations. But enough of they're in ninety four.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Then they can't blast. Who gave me is no more
than the usual maple officer's orders. My lord, forgive me
if I point out my position, sir, but this is
a difficult task. Failure in endangers the country and makes
me the laughing stock of the Maybe success brings no honor,
but it must remains secret. I submit, so that the
least I should have is full part to do whatever
seems best on the spot. All right, you shall have
(05:46):
your powers. I'll draw up the orders to benefects. You'll
hold your appointment as commodore. Of course, deadly night with
(06:39):
the woman I'm hearing it would be closure. It my god,
this still falling, just getting out into the channel.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
It's like, oh I all hands.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Shut and sail get that man cut the space all
in another raised in the puntile. Oh I raised befouse.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
For a long time since I sailed in so small
a vessel as the Porter Jayley. Mister Freeman, I find
the dimensions below deck and it camp. But she's a
lovely fighting machine all the same deck. Yea guns will
smash anything of her own high. We carry provisions enough
to stay at see definitely, and she'll stand a new
where it comes. Yes. But to do all that with
(07:20):
one hundred and ninety times means the crew has to
be contempt with conditions that would be hard on cattle
who they used to it in any orders, when we
cite the flames, they deal with the situation when it arises.
Mister Freeman, my orders give me part to negotiate, but
I feel that the negotiation would be a sign of
weakness somehow. Otherwise we'll have to trick a hundred English
(07:42):
semen into my power so that they can be hanged
or flogs or something I might feel like doing myself
under similar circumstances. I don't then veal your job, sir,
and anything wrong. Say you look a bit and you're
going below mm call me a better our surfa my
(08:11):
gold days? Did you see against you?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Always? Was you sick of the star for trips?
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Are confront her insolence, and I am not sick of
many tire Yes, corsad tie, sir, he's fucking on plunging,
not to tow anyone.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Would you go on dick again, sir?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
The leadership asked it a scene at your wore this
silk scarfs meat fair. He's very light and wolves a toaster.
Thank you you eyes o. That gale was interminable night
and day. It raged, and though Freeman clawed into it
(08:48):
as much as he dared, I knew that it was
gradually drifting us away from the course we needed to
make to find the mutineers. In the meantime, I fought
my screeamish stomach and learned my way about a ship,
and tried to pretend to myself that I should know
how to handle mutineers when the time came. Freeman was
a good captain, and his vessel was well kept, and
(09:10):
his crew as happy as any cup could be in
such weather and circumstances. The crew has been buzzing with
pleasures that are radio since you recognized that seaman yesterday.
It is an often iss here a commodore shake hands
as an ordinary siman. He taught me a lot of
(09:30):
good work mister freeman, you will really tell the men
why you're here, will you, Sir?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Afraid I don't have to.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
We may have to fight, and I can't ask Englishman
to kill englishman without some explanation. The watch is changing
now and this would be as good time as in him.
You happy goodness to summon them. Mark, very well sare
radio mister?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
All hand?
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Well, I expect you're wondering what has sent me to
see with you? All right, well, I'll tell you. There
is villainy of quote. British seamen have disgraced themselves a
mutiny in the very presence of the enemy. Fine God,
he's running a risk anty saying word mutiny or a
gang like this. We're off the French coast to and me.
(10:30):
They know that Bonaparte will heat will from luctually on
any crew brings in the British ship.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
This man, the cow of our own sisters.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Hip, the flame, has done this contemptible thing. Now they're
sheltering here in this very bay of the same. Every
man's hand is against them. The French have no use
for mutineers, and it's abitioned to dig these rats from
their holes. They betrayed England remember forgotten their duties a
king and country. The villains have led them astray, and
(11:01):
pay the price of their villainam. If they had enough
to want a fight, then we must fight them. If
they surrender, will not blood set That will be remembered
in their paper at the trial. I want o blood, said,
If that's what they want, they still have it.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
They forgot away.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
That was never came my cruise that he told they
must follow the plate for example. They're happy enough un
flooded to.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
I will do.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I'm not to work now, and remember I shill expect
unquestioning obedience.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
There now only Warner. It's there.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
She is by jo with a big ship with plain
sails set to the royals. She yes that she's a
faced west Indiman going into the Saint. She must have
slipped past the blockade in the gale, probably full of
grain and sugarn. One cargo into the Seine like that
is worth more to Bonaparte than a dozen delivered to
some inlet on the Biscay coast. Last she's too well in.
(12:47):
There've been no catching her before she reached harbor grass.
I'll have to let her go, mister Phelan.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
It's a pity.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
If it wasn't for the flame, we might have taken her,
and that would have meant at least ten pounds of
man prize money. Yes, and that won't make man any
better disposed towards the mission. Is the flames standing, sidle
In said, she's obviously not going to let us get nearer.
She'll give us half up to the friendship.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
We do.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Pity we can't get the window another, no room to
do it before she gets away. No, please have a boat,
hoy ster, do come in and I don't have to
go and parley with the villains. She don't mean to
be taking my surpriser. The guns are out and a
boarding knittings race guns men look out for loftboard at
the ross fall trim and proper like this the eyes
(13:30):
of my own brand SPA said, oh no, so I
sell him, sir.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Let's go on, cover off for a racial way, come
alongside long come you home board, but no where else.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
And we got coming to you to play there alongside
Bran either. I'll go up to the main chain. I
they tell you about to hear how Comodore, but think
you know this? Steer up, run stand off and on
I will and now may I ask you, if business
(14:08):
yair commodore, I wish to speak.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
To the leader of the mutineers. I'm the captain of
his ship.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
You can address your health to me, Nathaniel's sweet sild
that myself to you as far as I desired, and
that you are also the leader of the mutineers. In
that case you can call back Kimpton Leam, sir. This
was an impasse. Already I studied the white had wrinkled
(14:35):
old man with a telescope under his arm, befote himself.
N Tennie was sweet. The only thing that told Unudal
about his appearance was a pistol stuck in his belt.
And as sent you here to swing me on the
gallows anyway, I'm here to recall you to you, Judy
Letting bygones bey by God, to stand a fair child
you and your confederates. That means the gallows, and I'd
(14:57):
be lucky compared with some of the other who shall
have a fair Allen on his trial forever to getting
Suckemston's taken into consideration. The only trial I that tend
to be the bear witness against Chadwick Tallow. We killed
Jeams Jones a kipt boy, and the polled that he
died of fever aye and a few other things. To
our terms are full pardon for and a fair.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Trial for chan.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
That's why being very foolish bring away a lot of
times random Now with mister Chadwick unbund and a ship
in good order, and that will weigh heavily in your favor.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Refuse, I'm what can he look for? Death? That's all death.
Nothing can say.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Grue from your country's vengance. No, nothing freaking your pardon.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
But pony, can you such bone apart word?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
He'd like to have this ship, no doubt, but you
and your gang he won't. Didn't cut it mutiny, His
power rest too much on his own army. You and
Tobec will be made an example of willing. Now look
at these letters, three.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
On a floor. Now, I'll keep on government banking.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
This is from the military Governor of abraa grace that
only promises her are welcome. This is from the Prefect
of the Department of the Inferior, saying it promises us
provisions and water if we need them. And this is
a letter from Paris send down to us by post.
It promises us, immunity from arrest, civil rights in France,
(16:28):
and the pension for every man from the age of sixteen.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
And do you know what he sang?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
By Mary Louise, Empress Queen and Regent Bony won't go
back and his wife were the men to tell me,
man that you've been in communication with the zow i
we have and if you had the prospect before you
were being flogged around the fleet, you'll do the same.
(17:23):
Oh comes from this your tats as well as missing here,
I'm not expected. Guess what kind of cars you were.
I won't file my lung, but feeding the same man
any longer?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Yay? Where the kind of cars won't let you go?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
When we could easily chuck you down below when you
all up with chemis, we could give you a taste
that I can't come with all that? Can't you so
off norder?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Brother? Would you like that?
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Sir?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Remember tomorrow with the fresh skill on your ribs, because.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We the curse stand you.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
I'm morning here, captain. You don't think we've given a
quick broadside, sir? And then you get around the wind
and cut her off before she could make a short
now Impossibleman's agreement she's barely within range and should be
out of it before our guns were running. And I said,
(18:18):
no doubt, there's a dozen glasses watching on every movement.
Queer to look at us so like our own break.
Except for that patch on the sail, we might be
looking at the reflection of this vessel. I'd like to
lay my handle it and as sweet, and I give
it mutiny. And I'm afraid nothing older is the fact that,
at the moment where I helpless, I have failed utterly
(18:40):
in my attempt to win them over. And I can
see no possibility of them abating their terms. Either I
grant them a free pardon or I drive them into
the hands of Bonaparte. I feel, but.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I have.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Something happened now. I just thought you, no, Freeman, if
I had this brig and the flame under my command,
he could set the whole same estuary in an uproar.
It doesn't see much hope getting hold of the flames.
I don't know, mister Freeman. It might be done. Will
(19:20):
you passed the words for the sail maker to come here?
And I shall want his mates and every hand who
can use a needle in palm all right, eyes say you'll.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Make a bat, mister carle Pie to the flame.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Mister Freeman, you said yourself that she's an exact replica
of the port At Sailia, that there's one difference which
I think could be remedied if I can. I don't
understand it. Now here's Swinton sail makers.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I'll come here. Swinson.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
You take my glass and carefully study that patched four
topsail on the flame.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
You see it?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I see, well, then mark it well. I want this
ship to have a four topsails just like that, so
that no eye can just thinguish. Any difference between the
two cannot be done, he said, I can do, redn
might I ask what in your mind, Rachel you marry
mister Freeman. What I propose is this flame and porta
(20:13):
Taylor as like as two piece, as you said yourself,
and may be like a yet when we bend that ptopsel.
The mutineers have been in communication with a shore and
they have a promise of immunity if they go in.
But we don't want him to go into no, and
she won't sweep, won't give himself up to the French
and let he's given into it, so we won't clive him.
They'll sail into the mist. But we'll go in, mister Freeman,
(20:36):
and they'll think we are a flame that you see.
We'll sail in a safe place. So we were going
into Portsmouth Harbor by. If that's SORR, it's brilliant.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Ratio.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Hornblower, starring Michael Redgrave, is based on the novels by C. S.
Forester Music composers and conducted by Sydney Tort produced by
Harry Allen Towers,
Call all hands back to quarters.

man's hand is against them. The French have no use
for mutineers, and it's abitioned to dig these rats from
their holes. They betrayed England remember forgotten their duties a
king and country. The villains have led them astray, and
(11:01):
pay the price of their villainam. If they had enough
to want a fight, then we must fight them. If
they surrender, will not blood set That will be remembered
in their paper at the trial. I want o blood, said,
If that's what they want, they still have it.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
They forgot away.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
That was never came my cruise that he told they
must follow the plate for example. They're happy enough un
flooded to.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
I will do.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I'm not to work now, and remember I shill expect
unquestioning obedience.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
There now only Warner. It's there.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
She is by jo with a big ship with plain
sails set to the royals. She yes that she's a
faced west Indiman going into the Saint. She must have
slipped past the blockade in the gale, probably full of
grain and sugarn. One cargo into the Seine like that
is worth more to Bonaparte than a dozen delivered to
some inlet on the Biscay coast. Last she's too well in.
(12:47):
There've been no catching her before she reached harbor grass.
I'll have to let her go, mister Phelan.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
It's a pity.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
If it wasn't for the flame, we might have taken her,
and that would have meant at least ten pounds of
man prize money. Yes, and that won't make man any
better disposed towards the mission. Is the flames standing, sidle
In said, she's obviously not going to let us get nearer.
She'll give us half up to the friendship.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
We do.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Pity we can't get the window another, no room to
do it before she gets away. No, please have a boat,
hoy ster, do come in and I don't have to
go and parley with the villains. She don't mean to
be taking my surpriser. The guns are out and a
boarding knittings race guns men look out for loftboard at
the ross fall trim and proper like this the eyes
(13:30):
of my own brand SPA said, oh no, so I
sell him, sir.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Let's go on, cover off for a racial way, come
alongside long come you home board, but no where else.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
And we got coming to you to play there alongside
Bran either. I'll go up to the main chain. I
they tell you about to hear how Comodore, but think
you know this? Steer up, run stand off and on
I will and now may I ask you, if business
(14:08):
yair commodore, I wish to speak.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
To the leader of the mutineers. I'm the captain of
his ship.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
You can address your health to me, Nathaniel's sweet sild
that myself to you as far as I desired, and
that you are also the leader of the mutineers. In
that case you can call back Kimpton Leam, sir. This
was an impasse. Already I studied the white had wrinkled
(14:35):
old man with a telescope under his arm, befote himself.
N Tennie was sweet. The only thing that told Unudal
about his appearance was a pistol stuck in his belt.
And as sent you here to swing me on the
gallows anyway, I'm here to recall you to you, Judy
Letting bygones bey by God, to stand a fair child
you and your confederates. That means the gallows, and I'd
(14:57):
be lucky compared with some of the other who shall
have a fair Allen on his trial forever to getting
Suckemston's taken into consideration. The only trial I that tend
to be the bear witness against Chadwick Tallow. We killed
Jeams Jones a kipt boy, and the polled that he
died of fever aye and a few other things. To
our terms are full pardon for and a fair.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Trial for chan.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
That's why being very foolish bring away a lot of
times random Now with mister Chadwick unbund and a ship
in good order, and that will weigh heavily in your favor.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Refuse, I'm what can he look for? Death? That's all death.
Nothing can say.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Grue from your country's vengance. No, nothing freaking your pardon.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
But pony, can you such bone apart word?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
He'd like to have this ship, no doubt, but you
and your gang he won't. Didn't cut it mutiny, His
power rest too much on his own army. You and
Tobec will be made an example of willing. Now look
at these letters, three.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
On a floor. Now, I'll keep on government banking.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
This is from the military Governor of abraa grace that
only promises her are welcome. This is from the Prefect
of the Department of the Inferior, saying it promises us
provisions and water if we need them. And this is
a letter from Paris send down to us by post.
It promises us, immunity from arrest, civil rights in France,
(16:28):
and the pension for every man from the age of sixteen.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
And do you know what he sang?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
By Mary Louise, Empress Queen and Regent Bony won't go
back and his wife were the men to tell me,
man that you've been in communication with the zow i
we have and if you had the prospect before you
were being flogged around the fleet, you'll do the same.
(17:23):
Oh comes from this your tats as well as missing here,
I'm not expected. Guess what kind of cars you were.
I won't file my lung, but feeding the same man
any longer?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Yay? Where the kind of cars won't let you go?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
When we could easily chuck you down below when you
all up with chemis, we could give you a taste
that I can't come with all that? Can't you so
off norder?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Brother? Would you like that?
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Sir?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Remember tomorrow with the fresh skill on your ribs, because.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We the curse stand you.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
I'm morning here, captain. You don't think we've given a
quick broadside, sir? And then you get around the wind
and cut her off before she could make a short
now Impossibleman's agreement she's barely within range and should be
out of it before our guns were running. And I said,
(18:18):
no doubt, there's a dozen glasses watching on every movement.
Queer to look at us so like our own break.
Except for that patch on the sail, we might be
looking at the reflection of this vessel. I'd like to
lay my handle it and as sweet, and I give
it mutiny. And I'm afraid nothing older is the fact that,
at the moment where I helpless, I have failed utterly
(18:40):
in my attempt to win them over. And I can
see no possibility of them abating their terms. Either I
grant them a free pardon or I drive them into
the hands of Bonaparte. I feel, but.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I have.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Something happened now. I just thought you, no, Freeman, if
I had this brig and the flame under my command,
he could set the whole same estuary in an uproar.
It doesn't see much hope getting hold of the flames.
I don't know, mister Freeman. It might be done. Will
(19:20):
you passed the words for the sail maker to come here?
And I shall want his mates and every hand who
can use a needle in palm all right, eyes say you'll.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Make a bat, mister carle Pie to the flame.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Mister Freeman, you said yourself that she's an exact replica
of the port At Sailia, that there's one difference which
I think could be remedied if I can. I don't
understand it. Now here's Swinton sail makers.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I'll come here. Swinson.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
You take my glass and carefully study that patched four
topsail on the flame.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
You see it?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I see, well, then mark it well. I want this
ship to have a four topsails just like that, so
that no eye can just thinguish. Any difference between the
two cannot be done, he said, I can do, redn
might I ask what in your mind, Rachel you marry
mister Freeman. What I propose is this flame and porta
(20:13):
Taylor as like as two piece, as you said yourself,
and may be like a yet when we bend that ptopsel.
The mutineers have been in communication with a shore and
they have a promise of immunity if they go in.
But we don't want him to go into no, and
she won't sweep, won't give himself up to the French
and let he's given into it, so we won't clive him.
They'll sail into the mist. But we'll go in, mister Freeman,
(20:36):
and they'll think we are a flame that you see.
We'll sail in a safe place. So we were going
into Portsmouth Harbor by. If that's SORR, it's brilliant.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Ratio.
