Peter Sellers Harry Secombe and Spike Milligan in ' The Sale of Manhattan ' by Spike Milligan with additional material by Overcoat Charlie
Shortly after the makers of 'Lurgi,' the American all-purpose loaf, have offered 20,000 dollars to the first person to cross the Atlantic in a leaky canoe, two international part-time dustmen, Brigadier T. St. J. Grytpype-thynne and Count Fred Moriarty, Esq., suddenly discover the long-lost deeds proving that New York belongs to Neddie Seagoon. A mysterious Count Jim Pills, Esq., succeeds in persuading Neddie to cross the Atlantic in a leaky canoe to claim this fragment of the Americas as his own. The programme also explains the significance of ritual saxophone playing at Medicine Hat during the first phase of the November moon.
