Fulton Mackay as Alf and ' We ran straight into a German patrol. They put their grenades right in the middle of us. I don' remember falling or anything, just coming to and trying to scrape the mud out of my eyes. And then something hit me on the back, high up, near the shoulder. It was a boot, a British Army boot ... and somebody's foot was still in it ...'
