Jackboots on Whitehall Page #2

Synopsis: World War II: What if Nazis seized London and all of England had to band together? When scarily campy Nazi leaders invade by drilling under the English Channel and up through the cobblestones on Whitehall, Churchill leaves his quiet retirement with a cat that looks like Hitler to issue a call to arms from his bunker under Downing Street. Chris, a young farm worker with large hands, rallies the village to fight the good fight -- including an alcoholic Vicar, the oldest man in the town, several idiots, a random Frenchman and Bobby Fiske, a swearing American who believes he's battling Russia. The world's future is in their tiny plastic hands. Innovative puppeteering animatronics from Scottish brothers Edward and Rory McHenry combine with the larger-than-life voices of Ewan McGregor, Alan Cumming, Dominic West, Rosamund Pike, Tom Wilkinson, Timothy Spall and Richard E. Grant.

But still, this hasn't solved

the problem of the invasion.

Oh, hi, boys!

Himmler!

Goering, old bean, you're looking good.

Hello, Goebbels.

How are you feeling, little fellow?

I beat Herr Goering at war!

So, you still can't find a way

into England, Goering?

Nein. I have tried everything.

Zis endless fog

over the Englander Channel

has prevented all of our plans

for invading England.

Well, now that the whole

of Ze Englander army is stuck in France

and Ze RAF is annihilated!

# Ah-da, da-da, da-da! #

Ze Fhrer has an ingenious plan of attack.

Oh, what is it, Herr Himmler?

I have tried every possible means

of attacking Zat little island.

He wants us to dig

under Ze Englander Channel

right into Ze heart of London,

capture Herr Winston Churchill

from Downing Street,

Zen lock him in a cage!

Ooh, what a beautiful plan, mein Fhrer.

Did you hear that, Goebbels, darling?

- We will be summering in London!

- Oh, joyous joy!

Oh-ho! Not even the Englander weather

can prevent us now!

Spitfire!

Look, Tom.

Yeah, and I reckon

that's the last of the few.

Shiiiiiit!

Ah!

Whoo-ee!

Crash and burn!

Just like my second marriage.

Hey, what the? What's this?

Smells like Russky propaganda.

Sh*t.

It looks like England

just screwed the pooch.

I gotta haul ass to London.

These commies ain't seen

the last of Billy Fiske!

Yaah!

I can't be doing with

all these politics of war and suchlike.

Much rather spend me time

painting landscapes,

or building a wall.

Nice cul-de-sac for our retirement,

eh, Pinkypoo?

Just three more days till me pension.

- Morning paper, sir?

- Ah, thank you.

What's this? Invasion looms?

Hitler will invade today?

Blast!

So much for an early retirement.

'Ere, are you Mr Winston Churchill?

Hmm? What?

Why, yes, I am.

Is that your cat? He looks like Hitler.

What? Pinkypoo?

Stuff and nonsense.

And what the bloody hell

is going on up there?

Who the devil are you?

Joseph Kaplinsky,

Polish Electrical Services.

I make better telegraph lines for you.

You can't just go putting up new telegraph

lines wherever you damn well please!

This is a listed road, man.

Bah, I don't know why Hitler

bothered with you Polish lot.

Les Anglais...

- There's a foreigner down on the beach.

- How can you tell, Albert?

He's funny-looking,

and he's up to something.

Oh, let's have a look.

It's just a fisherman, Albert.

You can never be too careful these days.

Albert, if the NaZis invade,

do you really think they'll do it

in a little boat like that?

Well, I'm going to keep an eye on him.

- # Just as the sun was rising

- Huh?

# I heard a maiden sing

- # In the valley below

- Huh.

# Oh, don't des... #
