Plot Summary | The accidental detonation of an unexploded World War II bomb in Pimlico, London, England reveals a treasure trove. Residents find documents proving that the region is, in fact, part of Burgundy, France--ergo, it's foreign territory. The British government attempts to regain control by setting up border controls and cutting off services to the area, and the "Burgundians" fight back. Written byStephen Parkin |

Filming Locations |
Trivia | The outdoor scenes were shot in Lambeth, a mile away from Pimlico. A set was built on a large World War II bombsite just south of Lambeth at the junction of Hercules Road. This site is now the location for municipal flats built in the 1960s. However, the buildings on the junction of Hercules Road and Lambeth Road can still be recognized from this movie, as can the railway bridge going over Lambeth Road, particularly from the scenes where food is thrown over the blockade.See more » |
Goofs | Approx 1 hour in, during the showing of the news reel, where they are throwing cans and buckets in the air and the phrase 'hitting the production target' is said, one of those people are hit by a falling item with visible distress.See more » |
