Old Bill : And you say that in front of her what lost her Dad in the last war.

Old Bill : For a little place called England. Ever heard of it?
Young Bill Busby : Eh, Just about.
Old Bill : It's a place where you can do what you like; say what you like and live as you like. I thought it was worth fighting for. I thought your Mother was worth fighting for. I thought you was worth fighting for - then. Seems I was wrong.
Young Bill Busby : Yeah, do don't it?
