This poor naked body, robbed by harpies, bitten by wolves, the visage battered beyond recognition, this they accept as the last earthly remains of Charles VII, Duke of Burgundy, last of the line of Charolais. Do they judge correctly? Is this indeed the cadaver of Charles the Rash? Ha-ha! If so, then I am Joan of Arc.

A comedy film made by Creator/EalingStudios in 1949, starring Stanley Holloway and Margaret Rutherford, and directed by Henry Cornelius.
When an unexploded UsefulNotes/WorldWarII bomb is accidentally set off in the working class Pimlico district of central London, documents are uncovered proving that the area is part of the Duchy of Burgundy, and thus foreign territory. The locals are glad of the opportunity to declare independence from the bureaucracy and austerity of post-war UsefulNotes/{{Britain}}. The British government, in response, sets up border controls and export restrictions in an attempt, to starve the Burgundians into submission. HilarityEnsues.
