[00:01.15]Then,disaster soon same.
[00:04.62]Edgar Evans had a terrible disease 1
[00:07.13]and died after a bad fall.
[00:09.71]The next to go was Captain Oates,
[00:11.91]who was having great difficulty 2 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.
