Plot

In the Western Desert of World War Two, a party of British "Desert Rats" soldiers and a party of Australian soldiers are holed up in a remote building, when an ambulance of Italian "nurses" arrive. The pilot was badly received and was never brought back for or developed into a series despite the success David Croft had with Dad's Army, It Ain't Half Hot Mum and 'Allo 'Allo!.
