Ring Dem Bells

Private Pike, a keen cinema-goer, is excited but once Colonel Pritchard and the film producers arrive to measure them for uniforms, it becomes clear that the men are going to be playing the Nazis.

Mainwaring informs the platoon that they must stay inside Jones' van to avoid being spotted and creating an alarm.

After going outside and seeing the backs of the platoon, who are still dressed as Nazis and Mainwaring (whom Hodges declares a traitor) speaking to them, they decide to sound the alarm by ringing the church bells.

They eventually enter after Wilson unbolts the door from the inside, and find a terrified Hodges, Vicar and Verger hanging from above by the bell ropes.

Laughing, Pike adds that the whole south coast was on red alert and the Brigadier himself wanted to know what "blithering idiot" was responsible.
