Synopsis
Allo 'Allo follows the adventures of Rene Artois, the hapless cafe owner in war-torn France, as he and his wife, Edith, struggle to keep for themselves a priceless painting of The Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies, stolen by the Nazis and kept in a sausage in their cellar. Rene is hiding two British Airmen and endeavouring, with the help of the Resistance, to repatriate them.
However, communications with London through a wireless disguised as a cockatoo adds to the many embarrassments he endures in the company of his patrons. Matters come to a head with the news that the Fuhrer is to visit the town and the cafe becomes filled with tricksters intending to impersonate Hitler before the event. Rene will need all the wit he can muster to save his cafe and his life.
