As World War I rages on, Dr. Henry Guthrie takes over a British choral society that's lost most of its men to the army. The community soon discovers that the best response to the chaos of war is to make beautiful music together.

It's a movie largely made for great grandmas interested in a choir from 1916 and does a good job at it with the added juxtaposition of weird sex stuff as a load of young lads are desperate to lose their virginity before they go to war plus a couple of gay blokes who can't make the first move. I'd love to know what kind of crossover those two audiences have - perhaps just Joanna Lumley.
I'll have to use that one hand excuse my right ones broken. Shame Raymun never got that shag.
