- Radio Londres (French for Radio London) was a radio station broadcast from 1940 to 1944 by the BBC in London to Nazi occupied France. It was entirely in French and was operated by the Free French who had escaped from occupied France. It served not only to counter the propaganda broadcasts of German-controlled Radio Paris and the Vichy government's Radiodiffusion nationale, but also to appeal to the French to rise up, as well as being used to send coded messages to the French Resistance.
Scene 1:
An older Frenchman lives in a coastal farmhouse not far from the German fortifications. He listens to the list of sentences broadcast by the free French. His name is Alphonse Lenaux and he is subtitled as Mayor of "Colleville-sur-Orne" (which is nowaydays called "Colleville-sur-Mer"). When he hears the message "John had a long moustache" he drops his spoon into his soup bowl. A big smile comes over his face. He grabs his hat and coat and his keys and rushes out the door.
Scene 2:
Alphonse Lenaux and another man knock down a long line of telephone poles with explosives and a main detonator. This knocks out much of the communication ability of the Germans in the area of the bridge.
The old woman is french actress Alice Tissot, She began at the time of silent movie and it was her last movie...
Fab Allaert She was hilarious playing the wife of the old man. You knew she was scared of the German occupation knowing they can being arrested and tortured. She played a great part of innocently not knowing what the Hell is going only to think that her husband went mad!!! 😂 She did a brilliant acting job at that moment... STANDING OVATION! 👏
Well, I'll tell you what.
She can make me a bowl of soup anytime.
@@RAD-82ndABN You are right except that in the movie she is an old woman, not the wife but the maid of the mayor, who wasn t his husband so.,The actor is Bourvil, aged 45 at this moment!
I always thought she was his mother or some older family member.
Maybe!@@rizon72
I love how she tasted the soup to make sure it was alright after Alphonse rushed out the door. That was a nice touch!
Love it too.
This is the kind of detail that brings a good film to the statue of excellent film.
RIP Leslie Phillips.
Also that Alphonse rushes back in to hide the radio since possession of a radio was forbidden by the Germans.
Coffee not soup
It takes a lot of bravery to fight the enemy as a soldier. It takes even more when you're not a soldier.
Not when it's your occupied country.
I know this is a year old and all but I just wanted to say I love when this man who is old enough to have fought in the last war grabs his helmet and says "No, not again" or something like that. This guy is a superhero.
@@PointyTailofSatan well said
@@rigaudien Still, when its not just your life but your family's.
@@AllCanadiaReject He actually said "No, not yet".
The Nazi switchboard guy seems to have had as much problems connecting the calls before the explosions as after.
La Resistance involved lots of people. We saw one instance.
If you wanna know what the BBC says after "John has a long mustache", here's the translation:
Sabine has mumps and jaundice - I repeat - Sabine has mumps and jaundice
It's a hot day in (unintelligible) - I repeat - It's a hot day in (unintelligible)
Trojan wars will not happen - I repeat - Trojan wars will not happen
The bracelet adds to your charm - I repeat - The bracelet adds to your charm
Dice are on the table - I repeat - Dice are on the table
Lilacs will bloom in spring - I repeat - Lilacs will bloom in spring
Edward's dog had five puppies on the 7th of January - I repeat - Edward's dog had five puppies on the 7th of January
Next scene is the German phone guys.
Excellent. Thanks for the translations.
unintelligible = "Genève" Geneva I think.
@@Momo5775 Maybe "Douai/Doway" , little town In the north of France.
Wasn't there a call about the heart resting or yearning in langour or something like that?
@@marieadams3720 Very much indeed, it was a two parts message from a poem from Verlaine called Autumn Song:
Les sanglots longs des violons de l'automne/Blessent mon coeur d'une langueur monotone
When a sighing begins in the violins of the autumn-song/My heart is drowned in the slow sound languorous and long
I have seen it at least 80 times or maybe more time. In the French language on the radio 📻 is actually for the Resistance fighters. French language is actually very extremely beautiful to listen to. It was actually made in 1962 but yet it doesn't seem like a great war movie ever but it was actually see the war itself.
Most of the Resistance were Communists who supported Stalin.
It is one of the greatest scenes of the movie. Those resistance fighters risked so much, and if not for them, the war would be much harder.
We fought the wrong enemy.
The Resistance was Communist.
The apology of Nazism is an international crime. Ok?
According to the judgments of the IMT at Nuremberg, the apology of Nazism is an international crime. Understood?
every time I watch this scene I smile. all the work and hope and sacrifice to rid France of the Nazi's, begins with that sentence. it's now or never.
After 4 long years of occupation, I can imagine what he was feeling.
Sadly they are ruled by the German EU now
Can you imagine? Four years of that shit. Then hearing that message?

Du grand BOURVIL, bon c'est vrai qu'il ne peut pas y avoir de petit BOURVIL. Quel talent cet homme, 👑🎺 quel talent ! 🥺 Et quelle perte pour nous.
The 1984 film, Red Dawn, which portrays an invasion of the United States by Russian and Cuban armies, has a scene which pays homage to this one. American guerrillas receive broadcast messages from the unoccupied territory and one of them says in English: "John has a long mustache".
I saw Red Dawn before I saw this one, and I was all "AH! I GET IT NOW!"
Imagine the Ukrainians having a podcast on Crimea.
Ah yes where Russian and Cuban forces invade (wait for it) Colorado!! Most unlikely possibility since American propaganda films in WW I portrayed German troops (the Hun ! ) invading America and raping milk maids in New Jersey! (Yes there were still milk maids in New Jersey then.) Just shows how unrealistic American Cold War propaganda got after Vietnam.

Lol the old lady and the soup at end was hilarious
I positively love this scene!
Qu'il était doué notre ami André, et qu'il était juste dans son jeu.
Jean, à de longues moustaches merveilleux acteur ce Bourvil
big mustache, un clin d'œil à la grande vadrouille ?

sûr il range une radio allumée qui n' a pas de cordon électrique en 1944 ! faux raccord !
Didn't realize the famous French comedian was in this movie.
Bourvil !
The old lady looking at the closed cabinet with the radio blaring, absolutely hilarious
He was so happy to know thwt thw allies were arriving in France that he didn´t know what to do first,and his wife didn´t know anything of what´s going on there.She didn´t know thwt he belonged to the resistance.He had to hide the radio because it was forbidden to have radios during the german invasion.I didn´t realize before that he had a work to do that same night,and it was very important.
We see him later on (I think it's) Gold Beach, offering Champagne to the British troops. It seems he had time to go home to get his helmet!
You are French? god bless the Resistance
Maria you can not spell for shit learn to spell before you comment
I think that was his mom !
@@blackiechong4344 its ok. Be a compassionate !
Such a secret code that the woman didn’t know.
It’s also in red Dawn 1 and 2. I have always wondered why ?? Like why lol everytime I heard the phrase I just new it meant something but no one ever told me it just seemed like something interesting lol. in red dawn in the beginning it says on the radio- the chairs against the wall the chairs against the wall. John has a long mustache. John has a long mustache., and then went to play the rest of the radio broadcast lol did a little research and this is why 😂
L'actrice Alice Tissot est née le 1er janvier 1890, au 56, rue de la Pompe. Son état-civil mentionne un mariage le 22 juin 1912 à Asnières-sur-Seine avec André Barthélémy Georges Augereau, ainsi que la profession de son grand-père et de son père, vernisseur.
Elle a mené, à partir de 1908, sous la direction de Louis Feuillade, une carrière cinématographique extrêmement prolifique (sa filmographie compte plus de 300 titres).
En 1962, elle a fait une dernière apparition cinématographique : un petit rôle dans la super production Le Jour le plus long.
Alice Tissot est morte des suites d’un cancer du larynx en mai 1971. 🌹⭐️
The French Resistance was the French Resistance, and it took forty years for France to heal herself, mostly, but not entirely.
The Resistance was actually more effective than the French army.
@@PointyTailofSatan sometimes when they weren't killing Germans or the Milice they were killing each other. They were not a homogenous group.
@@Conn30Mtenor each other ? I doubt , there were communist and many other parties but there has been No large scale aggressiveess between groups
@@tayloryoung9803 The betrayals between different politically-motivated resisters were many, and the Nazis only cared about the resistors' politics in that they could exploit them to make them betray each other.
DeGaulle had a way of making lists of those he considered the wrong political kind as well.
It's tragic, cruel, and one reason so many tried to kill him.
Even when he was in Britain.
@@PointyTailofSatanutter bollox - you have no idea and no evidence was ever given to you to support your idiocy
The actor here Borvil, is actually from Normandy.
Bourvil (André Raimbourg)died in 1970 ...
That actress really stole the scene!
Le sabotage des poteaux de tel faisait bien rire mon père chef de trentaine dans la résistance,ils n’avaient qu’une scie et pour faire dérailler les trains ils detirfonaient les rails à la main par manque d’explosif 😮😮😮😮
The music you hear at the beginning is the opening notes of Bethoven's Nineth Symphony which in Morse code means V for Victory !
Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, not the Ninth.
Le récepteur radio ne semble pas raccordé au secteur !! En 1944 les récepteurs radios étéaient déjà sur piles. Pas sûr mais allez, c'est anecdotique, on va excuser volontiers la production
Bourvil was a marvellous comedian...he was above all an actor of comedies..still famous in French memory...may i add totally forgotten in the US or England....(but in yours countries if you are not american or english .....you are not interested in aren t you?)
He does resemble Bert Lahr,the Anweican comedian who played the c/owardly Lionin the Wizaerdof OZ!
The Longest Day had a cast of Stars from many nations, many speaking their native languages.
The famous actor play Major Howard, commander at Pegasus Bridge, was in real life one of the Lieutenants, commanding one of the Six Platoons of that stunning coup de main!
I am interested; are there any of Bourvil's films available with good subtitles?
@@stevetheduck1425 : if you haven't watched "La grande vadrouille", it's one of the best french comedy movie.
@@stevetheduck1425 Try to watch "Le Corniaud" too
this one I cracked when I was a kid. still find it funny she thinks he's crazy
I was always taught that the words for the resistance were " pierce my heart with a monotonous languor".
There were multiple messages for different groups/cells at different times, as well as that line from a poem.
3:02 « Ça marche !!! » 🤠✌️🇫🇷❤
Husband: Excuse me, dear, but I must blow up some telephone poles -- and then blow up some railroad tracks.
Wife: Ooooh! Thank God. I thought that there was something wrong with the soup.
Those 5 beats, I don't remember the details, but it has always been important, to most Europeans, But Lest we forget, This Character, represented thousands, across Europe, that fought, for Liberation, and died in the attempt,
The five beats of the drum are the Morse Code for the letter V, used by Winston as the sign for victory with his raised two fingers. Also by chance, they are the opening to Beethoven's Fifth Symphony which was adopted by the Allies as another symbol for victory. A nice touch, as Beethoven was German.
The extent to which the OSS and the SOE worked to make this invasion possible will rarely be acknowledged. Women, in particular, were fundamental in the recon and sabotage efforts.

His wife has no idea wtf he's on about
That's not his wife, its his mum or housekeeper, shes way too old to be his wife....
@@optimisticwhovian1726 You underestimate the French
That's his housekeeper.
I'd always thought the code was "wound my heart with monotonous languor". Maybe I just dreamt that...
There were numerous codes issued, and yes, "Blessent mon cœur d'une langueur monotone" was one of the more well known ones.
The Chair is Against the Wall.
The Chair is Against the Wall.
That code was to announce the landing of the allies troops.
ruclips.net/video/0gDgNi30spA/видео.html
Each resistance group was listening for the code phrase that meant something to them personally; that someone was safe in England, that a delivery could be expected, and so on.
Many meant nothing, just there so an increasing number of messages did not trigger a Nazi response, and to suggest that attacks happened ever day in one way or another.
Apparently on the day before D-Day, EVERY message caused someone or a group to act.
The two lines from Verlaine were actually a signal of MANY people to act in concert: get ready, -and GO!
My all time favorite movie, “if you ask me Flanagan, there’s some weird blokes on this beach!”
Calm, Winston!
I really love this particular scene with the french poems.
The true French resistance were heros but its amazing how many more came out the woodwork once it was safe to do so.
I wonder if one day the truth about Germany pre-Hitler will be known by more people. And the complexities and consequences of the Allies winning WWII are fully understood. Sadly, it is harder to find such accounts. We will repeat this history for who knows how many more generations. So tragic.
2:22 is whenever i try to call any of my family...
John had a LLLLOOOOONNNNNGGGGG MOOSTASSHHH....😏🥸
There is nothing in his sup plate , the actor plays !

This John had a long mustache....[Revelation 11:15] "Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!""
That's not all he had.
On 5 June 1944, the BBC sent this message to the French Resistance to begin sabotage efforts:
"“Blessent mon coeur / D’une langueur / Monotone.”
Translation by Arthur Symons: "My heart is drowned / In the slow sound / Languorous and long."
From a poem by Paul Verlaine (1844-1896).
Les sanglots long de la violons d'autonne / blessent mon couer d'un longeur monotone'
The long sobs of the violins of autumn / wound my heart with a monotonous langour.
The German version is heard in the film as well.
Two-part messages were: 'in the next few days' and the 'tomorrow morning' signals.
The allied troops did not know exactly which day they would land, but the first part was sent when the decision to go was made, and the second when the ships started their approach to the beaches, some of which were on their way when the first message was sent.
In some cases, the message arrived only hours before the landings and the sabotage had already begun.
