A new twist on Britain’s finest
hour becomes Hollywood’s greatest story in
this comic re-telling of one Britain’s most
historic moments-as seen through the eyes of Hollywood.
Wasting away in the battlefields of Europe, testosterone-filed,
cigar-smoking, American GI Winston Churchill (Christian
Slater) is getting tired of having to fight
the Germans single-handedly. He needs allied support.
Travelling to England to convince the King (Harry
Enfield) to help save Europe from the onslaught
of the Third Reich, Churchill underestimates the
complexities of his task. Not only is the King a
drunken monarch but only with the help of the naïve
yet very clever Princess Elizabeth (Neve
Campbell) and loyal “Irish
cockney” mate Jim Cheroo (Mackenzie
Crook) can Churchill succeed in allaying the efforts
of his enemies, foiling the meeting between Hitler
(Anthony Sher) and
the King, and exiling him back to his own country.
A hero’s job is done!
