CloseWinston Churchill hides out in lawless Scotland, as an all-star cast voices a radical alternative history of the Normandy landings.
While the British army is assembled at Dunkirk, the Nazis execute a plan to drill under the English Channel and emerge in the heart of London.
All seems lost, a full invasion looms, and the retirement plans of beleaguered PM Winston Churchill have begun to look distinctly wobbly…
With terrifically detailed settings and figurines, this wonderfully eccentric and uncompromised labour of love takes merciless pot shots at every hackneyed cinematic exploitation of the iconography of World War II.

Clever, inventive and laugh-out-loud funny. The scenery and characters are cleverly and beautifully created, and the vocal casting is spot-on. Thoroughly enjoyed!
