Armstrong and Miller are collectively the comedians and actors Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller, and also the name of their television sketch show which ran from 1997 to 2001, and then began again in 2007.

Two RAF airmen skecthes from World War II (seen in black-and-white, as though in a David Niven war film), who have the language and attitudes of stereotypical modern-day teenagers, albeit with upperclass accents. In one sketch one of Churchill's famous speeches comes on the radio and he is similarly speaking in the same slang. ("We will fight them on the beaches - and shit - and on the landing grounds - big time!")
