Peter Sellers , Harry Secombe and Spike Milligan in 'The Dreaded Batter Pudding Hurler'
(of Bexhill-on-Sea)
How young Ned Seagoon was called on by the terrorised gentlefolk of Bexhill to help track down the dreaded Batter Pudding Hurler. Striking when least expected ' the Hurler ' caused such havoc during the blackout of 1941 that troops massed against the German invasion were ordered to join the hunt. A trail of cold batter puddings eventually led Ned Seagoon to North Africa.
