The Classic BBC Comedy Series from Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft.
| Meet Rene, the most wanted man in occupied France. Women want his body. The Resistance want his brain. And the Nazis want his sausage. In a small cafe in Nouvion, this harassed proprietor is having a difficult war. With the German Army in residence at the bar, Rene is risking his neck to aid the Resistance by hiding two British airmen and a radio transmitter upstairs. As is this wasn't enough, Rene has also got involved in hiding a priceless painting in a garlic sausage, which even now is being sniffed out by the Gestapo. But Rene's real problem is his wife, Edith, and what she will do to him when she finds out about his affairs with two sexy waitresses! This 19 disc collection includes all 85 episodes of 'Allo 'Allo! |

"...for those viewers who treasure anything British, from Monty Python to Are You Being Served?, to The Royle Family. Paul Mavis, DVD Talk
"...a great original premise, a wonderful cast and several hilarious ideas over the years. Stefan Hedmark, The MovieHamlet

Editor's Note
Occupied France seems an unlikely choice for a sitcom setting. However, that's the genius of the BBC gem 'ALLO 'ALLO. Taking a decidedly unfunny premise (the Nazi occupation of France) and combining it with a hilarious cast of characters made this one of the most beloved Britcoms. Rene Artois (Gordon Kaye) may own a café in Nouvion, but he occupies his time with his two mistresses, a meddling wife, and La Résistance. Featuring giggle-inducing double entendres, this bawdy series comes from the creative forces behind the classic ARE YOU BEING SERVED? This collection presents all nine seasons on the British comedy series.
