I was watching the film where the Local Defence Volunteers (to become the
Home Guard) were forming at Warmington on Sea and Mr Mainwearing was
recruiting the lads.

a couple of the funny lines from the film,

Preparing for the German assault, with Wilson holding up an AA route map.
Mainwearing says: Wilson, Wilson, you've got your thumb on Warmington.

Behind the barricade, waiting for the German attack.
Mainwearing says: Wilson, if anything happens to me, you take the gun and
if
anything happens to you, pass it on.

made me smile anyway.

Nothing will match the Captain's line at the end of this clip:
