You need to 'get it' with the accents really, its hard to explain, but I
think it has a lot to do with the way the British do not do languages, they just shout louder. I blame Peter Sellars myself, he started the badly pronounced English humour so to speak.

The many references to the drama would have been easily understood by British viewers, but might have passed over the heads of foreign audiences, who presumably just laughed at the comedy. The writers had previously had great success with other WWII-based comedies which made fun of the British at war, mocking many of the myths and manners of the period (especially as portrayed in films such as those mentioned by the OP), and perhaps were able to broaden the situation to create a show of much wider appeal, even to those who'd never seen the drama it spoofed. Even so, the OP can be forgiven for not "getting" the show's satirical (and subversive) intent. In a further twist, the show enjoyed further success on the theatre stage in the 1990s, returning to the roots of the tradition on which it was based. |
