Fiddlers Three

on BBC Two England

Starring Tommy Trinder
with Frances Day, Sonny Hale, Francis L. Sullivan

Two sailors and a Wren, caught by a midsummer storm at Stonehenge, find themselves transported back to Ancient Rome. Our heroes are soon up to their necks in the rites and wrongs of Nero's court, while the lovely Lydda is the week's bargain offer in the slave market.
