Synopsis
Axel Woestewey, le cynique directeur de la luxueuse maison de repos Semper Vivax, et Pipo Himelsorge, son bras droit, font tout ce qui est imaginable afin de divertir les résidents, qui sont d'ailleurs résolus à payer le nécessaire pour d'extravagantes mises en scènes. Le directeur, marié à la corpulente Bellina, multiplie ses aventures amoureuses avec sa secrétaire, Matti, sa belle-sœur Erika, et Patricia, la petite-fille d'un ministre d'État à la retraite qui désire être accepté comme danseur de claquettes. Ce dernier menace l'établissement de soins infirmiers de fermeture imminente s'il n'est pas engagé. Pipo, amoureux de l'inaccessible Bellina, a un plan pour éliminer le directeur et conquérir sa femme. Lors de la fête annuelle, l'éléphant Mira doit poser sa patte sur un détonateur et faire sauter Axel. Quant à Matti, elle invite toutes les maîtresses du directeur à cette fête. Mais rien ne se passe comme prévu, c'est Bellina que Mira fait exploser. Pipo, abattu, décide de ne pas sauter par la fenêtre et de vivre.Actors

In pre-revolutionary Cuba, James Wormold (Alec Guinness), a vacuum cleaner salesman, is recruited by Hawthorne (Noël Coward) of the British Secret Intelligence Service to be their Havana operative. Instead of recruiting his own agents, Wormold invents agents from men he knows only by sight, and sketches "plans" for a rocket-launching pad based on vacuum parts to increase his value to the service and to procure more money for himself and his expensive daughter Milly (Jo Morrow). Because his importance grows, he is sent a secretary, Beatrice (Maureen O'Hara), and a radioman from London to be under his command. With their arrival it becomes much harder for Wormold to maintain his facade. However, all of his invented information begins to come true: his cables home are intercepted and believed to be true by enemy agents who then act against his "cell". One of his "agents" is killed, and he is himself targeted for assassination. He admits what he's done to his secretary, and is recalled to London. At the film's conclusion, rather than telling the truth to the prime minister and other military intelligence services, Wormold's commanders (led by Ralph Richardson) agree to fabricate a story claiming his imagined machines had been dismantled, bestow honors on Wormold, and offer him a position teaching espionage classes in London.

Johnny English is an inept MI7 agent with dreams of being their most trusted employee. After Agent One dies in a submarine accident (courtesy of English making a mistake on checking the submarine hatch code), the remaining agents are assassinated via a bombing at Agent One’s funeral (again courtesy of English's incompetence at security), leaving English as the lone survivor. English is assigned to follow a plot to steal the Crown Jewels, which are on display at the Tower of London. At the display, English is head of security, and meets the mysterious Lorna Campbell. The power is cut, and the jewels are stolen. During the chaos, English knocks out a security guard in the process and fights the "assailant" (himself). He later makes up a false description of the assailant to Pegasus. English and his assistant Angus Bough find the jewels were removed via a hole dug beneath their display case. The two follow a tunnel, confronting the two thieves Klaus Vendetta and Dieter Klein. The two escape in a hearse, with English trying to pursue them, but mistakes another hearse for the escape vehicle, crashing a funeral until Bough comes to his aid.
