The Laugh Parade: The Horizontal Lieutenant

BBC One
on BBC One London

Tonight's film in this comedy season stars Jim Hutton, Paula Prentiss, Jack Carter with Jim Backus

Jim Hutton and Paula Prentiss make a likeably zany comedy team and get most of the laughs in this lively farce about an accident-prone Army officer who is sent to an occupied Pacific island with orders to capture a dangerous Japanese guerrilla.
Hutton is the young lieutenant and Paula Prentiss his army girl friend.
