'Allo 'Allo! (1982-1992)
Allo Allo! (1982) is a British sitcom that follows the misadventures of René Artois, the hapless café owner in the small French town of Nouvion during World War II. The show is known for its outrageous characters, witty dialogue, and sexual innuendos.
The show is full of sexual moments, ranging from subtle to overt. René is constantly surrounded by beautiful women, and his attempts to juggle them all while avoiding the advances of the Gestapo are a source of much of the show’s humor.
One of the most memorable sexual moments in the show is when René is caught in a compromising position with the café’s waitress Yvette. After Yvette has been caught stealing from the café, René attempts to hide her in his bedroom. Unfortunately, the Gestapo arrive just as René and Yvette are about to kiss. The scene is played for laughs, but it is also a reminder of the danger that René and Yvette are in.
Another memorable sexual moment comes when René is forced to marry the Gestapo officer Herr Flick’s assistant, Helga. The wedding is a farce, and the ceremony is interrupted by a group of British airmen who crash the wedding. The airmen are dressed in drag, and the scene is full of sexual innuendo.
The show also features a number of other sexual moments, such as when René is forced to dress as a woman in order to escape the Gestapo, or when he is caught in a compromising position with the British spy, Michelle.
Allo Allo! (1982) is a classic British sitcom, and its sexual moments are a major part of its appeal. The show’s outrageous characters, witty dialogue, and sexual innuendos make it a timeless classic.
One of the major sub-plots involves Rene having affairs with two waitresses. He is often seen kissing and embracing them, but hardly ever more than that. No nudity or sex is shown. The scenes generally last no longer than a few dozen seconds; they are often interrupted by his wife, who asks for an explanation to his behaviour, and Rene is forced to quickly come up with a funny excuse.
There are occasional references to sex and affairs. One time, when Rene is serving the guests with new glasses, he says that those glasses, according to the legend, were modelled on the breasts of Marie Antoinette; one of the guests says they should have been modelled in the breasts of another woman, present there at the moment; the woman gets very angry, forcing the man to apologise and declare that he has never seen her breasts.
There are many scenes of making out, although they generally last a short time, and are mostly made up of kissing and hugging; no nudity is shown.
Several women are often shown in their underwear and sexy clothes such as stockings and suspenders. They often show their legs up to the lower part of their bottoms, in order to seduce men. The purpose of seduction, although not explicitly mentioned, is abundantly obvious.
The waitresses are depicted as prostitutes. The selling of sex is rarely (if ever) explicitly mentioned, by it is made clear, and amounts of money are often mentioned. Extra additions, such as using boots, wet celery and an egg whisk, are often mentioned, and charged extra for.
One character is homosexual. Although the word is rarely (if ever) used, it is made clear. His intentions are clarified through comments like 'He has no interest in women of the opposite sex' and 'he is a bit more "that way"', whilst making a stereotypically gay hand gesture. However, he is rarely (if ever) mocked by his preferences.
No nudity is ever shown, apart from brief glimpses of 'The Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies' by Van Klomp, which depicts a topless woman. The depiction is mostly artistic and non-sexual.
Sexual double entendres also exist. In one occasion, a man is with a woman who is trying to seduce him. He starts to hear the sound of the engine of his tank, and says, 'I think my engine is warming up'. Officer Crabtree speaks bad French, and this is shown by his distortion of some words; sometimes, these distortions have double entendres, such as 'dick' for 'dark', 'tits' for 'tarts', 'poop' for 'pipe', 'piss' for 'pass' and for 'peace'.
