"Lovely home-grown comedy about two British Army dentists who go AWOL to fight World War II on their own. "
Don’t be deterred by the title - this isn’t a depressing war movie but a lighthearted romp in the style of Dad’s Army.
Based on a true story, staid old Sergeant Peter King (Kenneth Cranham) and young innocent Private Leslie Cutherbertson (Leo Bill) are fed up with making dentures so leave their English base bound for France to fight the Germans.
