The plan to photograph the plans for the German invasion of Great Britain goes bad, as ususal, when Edith puts the smoke bomb in the wrong chimney of the chteau, and Ren and LeClerc are forced to blow up the safe in another kind of chaos than they had originally planned. When the smoke clears they discover that Lieutenant Gruber had in his safe not the invasion plans, but the original paintings by Van Clomp and Van Gogh.

During the escape, Ren and LeClerc are captured by the Communist Rsistance, in German uniforms, and it is unclear which is worst - saying that theyre Germans, or revealing their true identities, which are seen as German collaborators.

Helga is ordered by the Colonel to be Lieutenant Grubers best friend, but during their not-so-romantic tte--tte, Edith and the servant girls steal the Lieutenants little tank to try and rescue Ren.moreless

      • The credits are once again wrong. Rose Hill is once again credited without appearing, whilst Kirsten Cooke is given second billing, when it really should be Jack Haig.

      • Goof: Von Klinkerhoffen threatens Gruber with a transfer to Vladivostok - during World War II, Vladivostok was a major port for lend-lease supplies. Thing is, Vladivostock is on the Russian east coast, which the Germans were never even close to reaching during the whole war.

      • Gruber: I like Berlin in June. How about you? Helga: I like a Mozart tune. How about you? Gruber: I'm mad about books, I cannot get my fill. Helga: And Adolf Hitler's book? Gruber: They give me a chill. The opening lines are adapted quotes from the 1941 song "(I Like New York in June) How About You?", written by Burton Lane and Ralph Freed.
