The film shows a Southern English village taken over by <a href="/wiki/Fallschirmj%C3%A4ger_(World_War_II)" class="mw-redirect" title="Fallschirmjäger (World War II)">German paratroopers</a>, reflecting the greatest potential nightmare for the British public of the time, although the threat of German invasion had largely receded by that point.

During the <a href="/wiki/Second_World_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Second World War">Second World War</a>, a group of seemingly authentic British soldiers arrive in the small, fictitious <a href="/wiki/England" title="England">English</a> village of Bramley End.<sup id="cite_ref-JPFaT_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-JPFaT-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It is the <a href="/wiki/Whitsun" title="Whitsun">Whitsun</a> weekend, life is even quieter than usual, and there is almost no road traffic. At first, they are welcomed by the villagers, until doubts set in about their true purpose and identity. After they are revealed to be <a href="/wiki/Nazi_Germany" title="Nazi Germany">German</a> soldiers intended to form the vanguard of an invasion of Britain, they round up the residents and hold them captive in the local church. The Reverend Ashton is shot dead while sounding the church bell in alarm. To reach the outside world, many of the villagers take action. Such plans include writing a message on an egg and giving it with five others to the local paper boy Johnnie Wade for his mother; they are crushed when Mrs Fraser's cousin Maude runs over the dropped package with her car. Members of the local Home Guard are ambushed and shot dead by the Germans. </p><p>Mrs Fraser puts a note in Maude's pocket, but she idly uses it to wedge her noisy car window; her dog, Edward, chews it to shreds after it blows onto the back seat. Mrs Collins, the <a href="/wiki/Postmistress" class="mw-redirect" title="Postmistress">postmistress</a>, manages to kill a German with a hatchet and tries to telephone for help, but the young women on the <a href="/wiki/Telephone_exchange" title="Telephone exchange">telephone exchange</a> see her light and decide that she can wait. Mrs Collins is then killed by a German soldier who walks into the shop and sees her handiwork. One of the women finally picks up the phone but there is no response. The captive civilians attempt to warn the local <a href="/wiki/British_Home_Guard" class="mw-redirect" title="British Home Guard">Home Guard</a>, but are betrayed by the <a href="/wiki/Squire#Village_leader" title="Squire">village squire</a> Oliver Wilsford, who is revealed to be a German collaborator. He stabs village constable Ted Garbett to death as he attempts to escape through the churchyard. </p><p>A young boy, George Truscott, escapes from the manor house. He meets a poacher, Bill Purvis, in the woods, and Purvis advises him on how best to raise the alarm. Purvis creates a diversion to draw attention away from George, but is shot dead whilst doing so. George is wounded in the leg, but manages to alert the British Army after limping to a nearby village and being taken in by the Drews. British soldiers arrive and are helped by some of the villagers, including Ivy Dorking and Peggy Pryde of the <a href="/wiki/Women%27s_Land_Army" title="Women's Land Army">Women's Land Army</a>, who have managed to escape, barricade their position, and arm themselves with captured German weapons. The women kill some of the Germans after a short battle. Wilsford is shot dead by the vicar's daughter, Nora, who discovers his treachery as he attempts to let the remaining Germans into the barricaded house. During the battle, many of the villagers who left to fight are wounded or killed; Mrs Fraser dies after saving the children from a hand grenade, smothering the explosion. The British troops arrive at Bramley End, finishing off the remaining Germans. Sims shows the Germans' grave in the churchyard and explains proudly "Yes, that's the only bit of England they got." </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Went_the_Day_Well%3F&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Leslie_Banks" title="Leslie Banks">Leslie Banks</a> as Oliver Wilsford, the treacherous squire</li> <li><a href="/wiki/C._V._France" title="C.
