concludes BBC2's series of comedies from writer-director Mel Brooks
Starring Mel Brooks, Marty Feldman, Dom De Luise

Film director Mel Funn emerges from oblivion with an unspeakably brilliant idea to save Big Picture Studios from a takeover: a lavish silent movie starring Hollywood's leading lights. But the devious businessmen at Engulf and Devour have other plans.... Can Funn make a comeback? Will the studio be rescued? Is slapstick dead? Mel Brooks gives the answers and proves a man of surprisingly few words in this hilarious romp through the conventions of silent cinema.
