【选段台词】

Official:President Reagan and President Bellaunde of Peru have some new proposals for the peace plan.

Margaret:The peace plan? There will be no appeasement. This is a war. A war they started and by God, we will finish it. I tell you what I'm going to write to every single one of these families, these heartbroken families? I am going to tell them that no British soldier will die in vain for the Falklands. I am the only Prime Minister in the history of our country who is also a mother with a son of my own, I can imagine your agony, and your grief.

Official:Prime Minister, we have secured the beach head. The Argentinian troops aredemoralized and ill equipped. The paratroops have taken Goose Green.

Parliment:Well done, MARGARET.

Margaret:We congratulate the men and women of the armed Forces for their skill, bravery and loyalty to this country. We were faced with an act of unprovoked aggression and we responded as we have responded in times past: with unity, strength and courage, sure in the knowledge that though much is sacrificed, in the end, right will prevail over wrong. And I put it to the Honourable Member opposite that this is not a day for him to carp, find fault, demand inquiries, they will happen I can assure him of that for we have nothing to hide, no this is a day to put difference aside, hold one's head high and take pride in being British.

Denis:GOTCHA! Well that paid off old girl! Your ratings soared! From the most hated Prime Minister of all time to the nation's darling. The world was at your feet, and Britain was back in business!

News:The Berlin Wall has fallen. The gates have opened! The police are making no attempt to stop people as they go through.
