[00:09.71]The next to go was Captain Oates, [00:11.91]who was having great difficulty walking. [00:14.46]Scott recorded his death: [00:16.64]"He said,'I'm just going outside [00:19.73]and I may be some time.' [00:22.14]We knew that poor Oates [00:23.67]was walking to his death, [00:25.72]but though we tried to stop him, [00:27.51]we knew that it was the act of a brave man [00:30.22]and an English gentleman. [00:32.37]We all hope to meet the end [00:34.01]with a similar spirit, [00:36.11]and certainly the end is not far." [00:39.38]Scott and two of his team members carried on [00:42.64]and got within eleven miles of one [00:44.99]of their food bases. [00:46.87]But then a terrible storm started [00:49.49]and they could not leave their tent. [00:51.71]Scott spent some of his last hours writing. [00:54.58]He wrote a letter full of sadness [00:56.93]to his wife Kathleen: [00:59.02]"I could tell you lots and lots [01:01.12]about this journey. [01:02.56]What stories you would have for the boy... [01:05.01]But what a price to pay." [01:07.55]Scott's diary also told the story of their end: [01:11.30]"We are getting weaker [01:14.23]and weaker and the end can't be far. [01:16.32]It seems a pity, [01:17.68]but I do not think I can write more." [01:20.80]The news of Scott's death shocked the world. [01:24.56]He had failed to win the race to the Pole, [01:27.17]but the extraordinary courage shown [01:28.78]by Captain Scott and his men [01:31.26]made them into heroes. [01:32.53]
