Dunkirk - 3. Deliverance


Episode three: Deliverance
Day 6: Lt. Jimmy Langley and Maj. Angus McCorquodale of the Coldstream Guards receive orders to hold the perimeter for one last night. Abriel, learning from Alexander of the imminent British pullout that will leave many French troops still on the beach, threatens to close the port. Philip Newman cares for wounded left behind at the casualty clearing station in an abandoned château on the outskirts of Dunkirk. Alexander and Tennant promise Abriel one last day to evacuate the French troops.

Day 7: Langley’s company engages the enemy at dawn as an exhausted Newman struggles to get the wounded to safety. Tennant informs Newman of the policy to de-prioritise the wounded and asks him to hold out for one more day. Enemy troops advancing on the perimeter use civilians as a shield and Langley has to rely on rifle fire to hold them back. Holsey and Mellis arrive onboard HMS Malcolm on their fifth rescue mission under heavy aerial fire. Newman remains to care for the wounded with a skeleton staff as the rest of the station staff withdraw. As the rearguard pull out, leaving the perimeter to be defended by the French, a badly wounded Langley is abandoned on the beach.

Day 8: Desmond Thorogood arrives in Dunkirk but must wait till nightfall for rescue. Ramsay meticulously plans the night's operations. When it is over Tennant sends his last signal from Dunkirk and embarks for home where he gets his first sleep on the train to London.

Day 9: Newman discovers the abandoned Langley and takes him into the station. The French troops covering the evacuation didn’t make it out in time so another night’s operations are required to pull them out. HMS Malcolm set out on her ninth mission to Dunkirk.

Day 10: Returning safely to Dover the crew of HMS Malcolm are granted three days leave. The operation is deemed a success, Churchill looks to the skies for what will be the next threat of total war. Dunkirk finally falls to the enemy but the rescued troops of the BEF make up the core of Britain's wartime army.
