Black Sheep of Whitehall

Black Sheep of Whitehall

The Harrow Correspondence College - Principal, Professor William Davis - differs from its more notable namesake in more than one respect, and in no greater respect than size. It possesses only one pupil, and he hasn't paid his fees. When Professor Davis visits the pupil, a young assistant in the press division of the Ministry of International Commerce, in an effort to extract the unpaid fee from him, he becomes involved in a hilarious series of misadventures with kidnapped professors and Nazi plots, and culminating in a crazy car chase involving a baby carriage and a bath chair.

Folly to Be Wise

Folly to Be Wise

When Captain Paris takes over at a big army camp as Chaplain and Entertainments Officer, the troops are in for some surprises. Captain Paris finds the Garrison Theatre ill attended, as the troops favor the local hostelries in preference to the succession of feminine string quartets and madrigal singers hitherto engaged for their amusement. Paris sets out to remedy this sad state of affairs, but his idea of staging a Brains Trust with local celebrities as the 'brains' turns out to have disastrous results!
