Rene runs a small cafe in France during World War II. He always seems to have his hands full: he's having affairs with most of his waitresses, he's keeping his wife happy, he's trying the please the German soldiers who frequent his cafe, and he's running a major underground operation for the resistance.

Rene is having a difficult war. He is not frightened by the Gestapo; he is not frightened by the Germans; he is not even frightened by the French Resistance. But his wife Edith scares the living daylights out of him! And now that he has been shot dead and is posing as his own twin brother, it appears he may have to woo her all over again and even remarry her in order to gain back his cafe, which he left to her in his will. But he has also promised to marry Yvette and Maria, his two sexy waitresses.

The central character of 'Allo 'Allo, a cafe owner in occupied France during World War II, is cowardly, venal, adulterous, and yet ineffably charming, thanks to the whimsical performance of Gorden Kaye. Rene (Kaye) helps the local Nazi commandant hide a valuable painting of a bare-breasted Madonna, helps the local Resistance hide British airmen until they can be smuggled back to England, and helps himself to the lovely charms of his two waitresses, Yvette (Vicki Michelle) and Maria (Francesca Gonshaw).
