The Laugh Parade: Everybody Does It

on BBC One London

tonight's film in this comedy series stars Paul Douglas, Linda Darnell, Celeste Holm with Charles Coburn, Millard Mitchell

Paul Douglas is ideally cast as Leonard Borland, a no-nonsense demolition contractor who finds his domestic life threatened by his wife's ambitions to return to the concert stage. As a practical joke he breaks into song himself, and - under the patronage of a famous soprano - is whisked away on a secret concert tour, with offers of Grand Opera.
The delicious Celeste Holm plays Leonard's wife, Dons, and Linda Darnell is the beautiful opera singer who fosters his singing career.
