...several scenes, the main French characters are a foot taller than usual owing to the use of stilted boots. And they wear modified hockey outfits complete with shinguards--in a properly Gallic blue, be it said. I suppose all this is to emphasize the enormous odds facing the outnumbered British. When conversing with the British, the French speak English with a French accent.

When it was detected, the judge was hauled before disciplinary officers who were aware of his identity but coolly carried on as usual. "How can I defend myself?" he asked.
