Film Matinee: Operation Petticoat

BBC One
on BBC One London

starring and The wartime career of the USS Sea Tiger was chequered, to say the least, as her former commander Matt Sherman recalls ... Sunk before she fired a shot, the submarine would have been left for scrap were it not for
Sherman's single-mindedness and the ingenious (less than ethical) schemes of new junior officer Nick Holden.
Cary Grant and Tony Curtis are joined by a very mixed cargo aboard their leaking sub as it makes its hilarious way across the Pacific.
Screenplay by STANLEY SHAPIRO and MAURICE RICHLIN based on a story by PAUL KING and JOSEPH STONE
Produced by ROBERT ARTHUR Directed by BLAKE EDWARDS
