Tonight's comedy film stars Akim Tamiroff, Donald Sinden, Sarah Lawson, Naunton Wayne

Having spliced just one too many mainbraces, Lieut Sylvester Green (Donald Sinden) finds that an innocent prank has serious but hilarious repercussions as he is held captive in a Middle East country.
However, his 'captors' turn out to be 30 beautiful girls-one of the brightest arrays of talent to grace the screen since the days of the Goldwyn Girls.
Akim Tamiroff provides a good share of the fun as the President of Agraria whose mishandling of the English language provides many delightful moments.
Written and produced by Peter Rogers

by James Hanley

Some people will do anything to get rid of an ageing father. George and Edna visit the sinister Mr Shafton and his son - who guarantee to solve any problem.

The shrewish Edna is played by Frances Cuka, a distinguished member of the RSC. Her recent appearances include "The Silver Tassie" and Pinter's "Silence".
Ronald Lacey has been in two recent films - "Take a Girl Like You" and "How I Won the War".
This is a new play by the novelist James Hanley whose best-known play was "Say Nothing".
