Sir Sidney Ruff-Diamond looks after the British outpost near the Khybar pass. Protected by the kilted Third Foot and Mouth regiment, you would think they were safe, but the Khazi of Kalabar has other ideas—he wants all the British dead. But his troops fear the 'skirted-devils, who are rumoured not to wear any underwear.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A anarchic British farce that gleefully lampoons imperial authority and masculine bravado through deliberately silly situations, double entendres, and inspired nonsense. It's rapid-fire comedy built on the subversive joke that the British Empire's authority is held together by fear, rumor, and elaborate pretense.
