Cary Grant in Father Goose

on BBC One London

continues the BBCtv tribute to Cary Grant who died last year. Today with Leslie Caron, Trevor Howard
'Mother Goose' is the unlikely radio code-name for Cary Grant, playing a South Seas beachcomber who is pressed into service as a military observer during World War.
In the midst of bombing Leslie Caron, as a French schoolteacher, turns up with a troop of seven young schoolgirls and Cary finds himself having to take the role of 'Father Goose' as well, as the stage is set for comedy all the way.
