A season of Britain's great laughter-makers
starring Kenneth More, James Donald
with Jean Lodge, Charles Hawtrey
A young couple on holiday in Devon become involved with a charming brandy smuggler. Through a series of mishaps they find themselves personally responsible for transporting the kegs to London using an unusual -but traditional-method of transport.
The film is remarkable for its superb location photography in Devon, Dorset, and France. The title is taken from Kipling's 'Smuggler's Song':
Five and twenty ponies
Trotting through the dark
Brandy for the Parson,
'Baccy for the Clerk;
Laces for a lady, letters for a spy,
Watch the wall, my darling, while the Gentlemen go by!
with John Edmunds
followed by The Weather
Is There a Ghost in the Machine?
A doctor, in a now classic case, cures an apparently incurable disease simply by talking to his patient-working on his mind under hypnosis. A State Registered Nurse smiles and feels absolutely no pain as two pins ease through her forearm.
Even the brain reacts to the unreal world of hypnotically induced hallucinations-as if they were real. Some scientists suspect one mind can communicate with another-by telepathy. Police testify tint a man locates missing persons for them by extra-sensory perception. But how valid is this?
These examples, if true, pose problems that cannot yet be answered in physical terms. They appear to be related to what we call 'mind.' But we cannot define mind or prove its existence.
This programme looks at the intriguing evidence and asks: is some of this mind over matter?
And if so-what is mind?
Eminent scientists suggest such phenomena could be important to our understanding of a mystery which one of the greatest physicists of our age has called 'The most important problem with which science has yet to deal'...
Taking part: Sir Alister Hardy, F.R.S., Sir Cyril Burt, Arthur Koestler
