classic drama set during the Second World War, adapted from the
book by Ewen Montagu which is based on real events. In order to

George Acres (Flemyng) are tasked with a complex mission - they
must find and dispatch a dead body under a fake identity of a
British major into the sea, along with plans for the bogus
invasion, to be discovered by the Nazis. Will the operation be a
success or will the Germans discover the truth?

William Fairchild directs this 1950s British comedy starring
Richard Basehart, Simone Simon, George Baker, Sid James and Joan
Hickson. Disaster strikes during the filming of a movie when the
final reel of film is misplaced, leaving the production without an
ending. Assistant Producer Joe Blake (Basehart) is sent out to
relocate the movie's extras, who are now required for an additional
day of filming. This proves tougher than expected since the private
lives of the extras, who include disillusioned society girl Toni
Howard (Josephine Griffin) and struggling boxer Barney West
(James), are arguably as colourful as any onscreen role. Will Joe
succeed?
