An unscripted comedy show devised by David Croft.
with Lance Percival, Victor Spinetti, Peter Reeves, Anne Cunningham, Betty Impey and the Boss Man, Jeremy Hawk.
(Victor Spinetti is appearing in "Oh What A Lovely War" at Wyndham's Theatre, London)
Once again the Boss Man, Jeremy Hawk, hands out the cards to the five members of the cast, takes a deep breath, and waits for the (strictly unscripted) fun to begin. In this off-beat comedy show each card bears the characters, situations, and first lines which form the outline of the programme. The contents, of course, come as a complete surprise to the cast, and nobody knows what anybody is going to do or say next - least of all John Barry and his musicians, who are ready at the drop of a crochet to provide the impromptu musical links.
Tales from the last frontier of the great American West.
Starring James Drury as The Virginian, Lee J. Cobb as Judge Henry Garth
with Doug McClure, Gary Clarke, Sonny Tufts
in which Danny Kaye and his special guests Juliet Prowse, Howard Morris, The Levee Singers entertain to the music of Paul Weston and his Orchestra with The Tony Charmoli Dancers.
