The film was trailed by a spin-off, 2011's Johnny English Reborn.The film opens
with a fantasy sequence in which Johnny English (Rowan Atkinson), an inept
British Intelligence agent, is "Agent One". He sneaks into a
building, distracts two guard dogs with toys, knocks out two guards and seduces
a woman who threatens him. He is awakened from his fantasy, just as he is about
to kiss the woman, by his sidekick, Angus Bough (Ben Miller). After being
assured that English has checked the submarine hatch codes personally, the real
Agent One (Greg Wise) leaves on a mission. The audience then learn that Agent
One died in action when his submarine hatch "failed to open". A bomb
then wipes out Britain's remaining agents, all of whom were attending the
funeral of Agent One, leaving only English. Nobody notices the hearse, which
sped from the scene minutes earlier.
