Or how about "Dad's Army", then, a comedy series about the Home Guard? If you've never seen that then you've missed absolute Comedy Gold: the best thing ever made for TV by anyone.
I love 'Allo 'Allo, I've got the whole series on DVD and it's one of the best WW2 comedies I've ever seen! Here's a couple of YT vids for you Joefour just to kind of get a "taste" of 'Allo 'Allo. Also on YouTube there's a playlist someone put together of what seems like the whole series. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...BKDQJu4dA3tfCV
