Screenplay by Jack Davies based on a novel by Charles Terrot.
Starring Donald Sinden, Diana Dors, Jeannie Carson, James Robertson Justice, Margaret Rutherford, Stanley Holloway.
Peter Weston, a songwriter, finds himself the unwilling owner of Daisy, an alligator. After his efforts to dispose of her are thwarted - there is a delightful scene with Margaret Rutherford as a cranky pet-shop owner who, like Dr. Dolittle, can talk to the animals - Peter decides he will keep his increasingly endearing pet. However, he is then faced with his fiancee's challenge: "Either the alligator goes, or I do".
