7 nothing for it but to

((have или there is) nothing for it but to (do, go, etc.))

нет другого выхода кроме; ничего другою не остается, как (сделать, пойти и т. д.)

He was pessimistic about anybody being able to repair the radiator, except a lad who ran a truck for the mine and he was a way in Leonora. There was nothing for it but to push on, after filling the water tank, and try to reach Laverton that night. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Golden Miles’, ch. 55) — Старик считал, что здесь едва ли кто-нибудь сумеет починить им радиатор, кроме разве парня, который водит грузовик к шахте, но он как раз уехал в город. Оставалось только наполнить бачок водой и тащиться дальше, чтобы до ночи добраться до Лейвертона.

A jab in the ribs got home and then a hook on the jaw. There was nothing for it but to retreat. (J. Lindsay, ‘A Local Habitation’, ch. 24) — Мощный тычок в ребро, а вслед за ним боковой удар в челюсть доставили Джеффу весьма неприятные ощущения. Но выбора не было - оставалось только отступить.

Upon my word, it's a bit awkward! Nothing for it, though, but to take you into my confidence. (A. Christie, ‘N or M?’, ch. IX) — Честное слово, получилось как-то нескладно! Ничего другого не остается, как доверить вам мою тайну.
