by John Lucarotti
[Starring] Ray Barrett, Geoffrey Keen, Philip Latham
Guest star, John Carson

How much is one man worth? When Ted Kihl is trapped in a Malaysian cave, Peter Thornton turns the huge resources of Mogul and his own skill as an oil man on to a rescue operation.

The director and his team spent a whole week underground shooting the film sequences, and the R.A.F. in Singapore and a major airline in London also mobilised their resources to help The Troubleshooters.
As the man in the cave, John Carson gives one of his most memorable performances. Some of it is real, for it was not until filming was completed that he admitted he suffers badly from claustrophobia.

Written by Ray Galton and Alan Simpson
Starring Tony Hancock
As a tribute to this great comedian, his last BBC-tv series is being shown again.
And featuring John Le Mesurier, Colin Gordon, Jack Watling, Hugh Lloyd, Diana King, Noel Howlett, Charles Lloyd Pack, Jose Read, William Sherwood, Ralph Wilson

Getting stuck in a lift is always an indignity. Getting stuck in one with Hancock becomes more of an ordeal - especially when he takes it upon himself to bolster up the spirits of his fellow lift passengers.

Classic comedy. Hancock is the ninth passenger in a lift for eight people. When the lift sticks between floors, his attempts to cheer everybody up are not appreciated. Show more
