Added DiffLines:

* RedemptionEqualsDeath: Lieutenant Clayton is a rude, classist, ungrateful {{Jerkass}} in all of his scenes but his last one, where he's mortally wounded, helps me blow up an enemy bunker, and dies after sharing a few friendly words with the men he's been so nasty to in the past.


Added DiffLines:

* StatingTheSimpleSolution: After the German tunnelers get proof that there's a bomb underneath their lines, the NewMeat digger asks his [=NCO=] why they can't just abandon the booby-trapped area and set up a new command post a short, strategically meaningless distance back. He's told their leaders will never admit defeat by giving up ground without a fight.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Fauxshadow}}: The explosives in the mine are electrically detonated, and we get several shots of groundwater dripping over the racks of wired-up explosives. When the time comes for the big bang, this goes unmentioned and causes no problems.

None

Added DiffLines:

* IgnoredExpert: A German NCO realises that the "British" miners have gone beneath the deep blue clay layer and tells his superior officer. The officer dismisses his concerns, because a mine that deep would need a ridiculous amount of explosives to do any damage. Unknown to him, the Brits do have a ridiculous amount of explosives down there.

Added DiffLines:

* AgeGapRomance: There is an obvious spark between Woodward and Marjorie, but he points out that he's ten years older than her, and she's only sixteen, to which she replies "I'll be seventeen next month." Then he goes off to war. They marry after the war, by which time she would be about twenty.

Sneddon just left his watch post to warn Woodward that the Germans mining team was near his bait - digging a fake tunnel to deceive the German from finding the real - and Rutledge orders him to go back to his watchpost. Second after the Germans make the tunnel explode]].

* EvilBrit: Notably downplayed compared to [[Film/{{Gallipoli}} other Australian]] [[Film/BreakerMorant war movies]]. Rutledge is an ass and there's some Anglo-Australian tension early on, but the enlisted men get along well (partly due to [[SeriousBusiness bonding over rugby]]) and General Lambert is a ReasonableAuthorityFigure.
