A chronicle of events abroad H.M.S. Troutbridge
Written by Lawrie Wyman and involving RICHARD CALDICOT, HEATHER CHASEN, RONNIE BARKER, TENNIEL EVANS, Michael BATES
Announcer, DAVID DUNHILL
Produced by ALASTAIR SCOTT JOHNSTON
Repeated: Wednesday, 8.0 p.m.
Jon Pertwee Is appearing in 'There's a Girl in My Soup' at the Globe Theatre. London

Sub.-Lieut. Phillips and Lieut. Murray
This afternoon H.M.S. Troutbridge recommissions for a further series of adventures in a lengthening chronicle of naval outrage. Whatever else one may say about this motley crew - and many have found the English language inadequate to express their feelings on the subject - no one can deny their incredible capacity for survival in an unkind world. Where anyone else would suffer court martial and disgrace, they slide out from under, leaving many senior, but less agile, gentlemen to take the rap.

The greatest compliment the author, the cast, and I have received, however, is the warmth and friendship we always seem to find in the Royal Navy itself, and this is deeply appreciated by us all. Even our sister ship, H.M.S. Troubridge, having found herself the butt of much ribald humour, now enters harbour with all her loudspeakers belting out our signature tune! She finds this convenient as her progress to the dockside is thereafter remarkably unimpeded.
Even Mr. Harold Wilson, when he was Leader of the Opposition, on being informed in a television interview of some highly unlikely occurrence on his return from a trip to America, was heard to remark 'But this is just like The Navy Lark!' ALASTAIR SCOTT JOHNSTON

The Navy Lark Is repeated on Wednesday evening (Light)
