Wartime comedy following a son and his father, who signs up to fight alongside him.

Old Bill And Son

Some of British cinema's best-loved stars were enlisted for this endearing wartime comedy featuring 'Old Bill' - the memorably cantankerous, grittily determined World War One character created by cartoonist Captain Bruce Bairnsfather. Starring Morland Graham and John Mills as Bills senior and junior, Old Bill And Son is featured here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

Old Bill has grumbled his way through the trenches of the First World War. Now it is the Second and, jealous of his son, Young Bill, he decides to enlist. He finally enters the Pioneer Corps, which is based near his son. Then one night Young Bill goes missing during a raid. Will it be up to Old Bill to save him?

First released: Monday 19th October 2015
