Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen asked what his reactions were to being cast as Ambrose Hilliard, Bill Nighy said: "They were looking for someone to play a chronically self-absorbed actor in his declining years, and they thought of me, which is something that's easier to process on some mornings rather than others."
- GoofsWhen Catrin Cole exits an Underground Station an Air Raid is starting and Air Raid Sirens are sounding; however they are not broadcasting the rising and falling note of the "Air Attack Warning", but the constant high pitched note of the "All Clear" which was / would be sounded after danger had passed.
- Quotes
Phyl Moore: They're afraid they won't be able to put us back in the box when this is over, and it makes them belligerent.

Featured review
Twee but charming
Their Finest is as twee and quaint as British cinema gets, yet a distinguished and committed cast somehow manage to elevate an otherwise cliched and trite script to become a pleasant watch. Nighy is a particular delight, clearly sending himself and fellow luvvies up a treat and Arterton manages to permeate a heavily laid on Welsh accent to produce a convincing and warm performance. It's all highly far fetched and tonally unsubstantial, but Their Finest just about retains enough charm to keep you onside.
