Peter Sellers, Harry Secombe and Spike Milligan in ' Lurgi Strikes Britain! '
Poor Arnold Fringe is suddenly stricken with the Dreaded Lurgi in a Lancashire bus. No doctor can find an antidote. Even Dr. Neddie Seagoon , twice struck off the register, is baffled. Every known cure is sought, but without success. Within a few days Lurgi has claimed nine thousand victims. Isolation bays are set up and Lancashire is hastily evacuated. Then, one black night, that none of the Albert Hall audience will ever forget, Lurgi reached London!
