- Synopsis:
Frankie Howerd's stuttering Private Potts brings back fond memories of the great man's roles in Up Pompeii! and Whoops Baghdad! With the double-entendres, awful puns and Howerd's own inimitable delivery (including addresses to the audience). This time, however, the skiving, scheming and cowardice take place in Winston Churchill's secret World War II underground bunker where Potts acts as batman to a group of officers ... Private Potts has just two aims in life: to do as little work as possible and to avoid physical injury. His uncanny resemblance to Fearless Freddy Hollocks, a respected general with a will of iron, might be some help, but the demanding Colonel Witherton and the screeching Sergeant Major McRuckus put a swift end to Potts' hope of a quiet war.
