A film series in which the famous underwater explorer takes his oceanographic vessel Calypso on a voyage of adventure and scientific discovery.

When Calypso anchors by chance over the spawning grounds of the Pacific Coast squid, Cousteau has a unique opportunity to make a detailed study of the strange breeding behaviour of this member of the octopus family. For three days his divers witness some of the most remarkable sights as they watch the concentrated frenzy of many thousands of squid.

Kenneth More returns to the Windmill Theatre, where he began his career as a stagehand, to tell the story of the notorious and innocent, glamorous and down-to-earth, the 'comic's' graveyard' and stepping-stone to fame - a legend of our lifetime.
In 1932 the Lord Chamberlain permitted showman Vivian Van Damm to stage nude tableaux at the tiny Windmill Theatre in Soho - provided the nudes remain completely motionless.
With recollections from Jimmy Edwards, Arthur English, Bruce Forsyth, Pearl Hackney, Stanley Holloway, Alfred Marks, Des O'Connor, Harry Secombe, Sheila Van Damm, a host of former Windmill Girls, soubrettes, dancers, and many others
Written and produced by Robert Vas
