The Laugh Parade: Laughter in Paradise

on BBC One London

Tonight's film, the first in a season of British comedy stars Alastair Sim, Fay Compton, Guy Middleton, George Cole, Hugh Griffith

An eccentric practical joker dies leaving a fortune to each of four relatives-on various conditions. The exploits the relatives have to undertake in order to inherit provide plenty of comic situations. In addition to an array of some of our most accomplished comedy players, watch out for Audrey Hepburn in her first film part, as a cigarette girl in a night-club.
