The Terry Thomas Movie Collection

The Terry Thomas Movie Collection

This box set contains three of Britain's favourite comedies, starring the best-loved cad in the business, Terry-Thomas. It provides a cocktail of double-crossing, eyebrow raising, cigarette clutching, gap-toothed farce.

The Naked Truth (1957)
A fast-paced black comedy, which was an early hit for Peter Sellers. He joins Terry-Thomas, Shirley Eaton, Joan Sims and Peggy Mount as a group of celebrities and VIPs who are being blackmailed by the sleazy editor (Dennis Price) of a scandal rag called "The Naked Truth". Terry-Thomas is delightful as the shifty Lord of the Realm.

Too Many Crooks (1958)
A gang of incompetent crooks (George Cole, Sid James, Bernard Bresslaw) unsuccessfully attempt to rob Terry-Thomas's tight-fisted millionaire but then decide to kidnap his daughter instead. A likeable farce with a marvellous cast of familiar British faces including John Le Mesurier and Terry Scott.

Make Mine Mink (1960)
Retired major Terry-Thomas, ex-con Billie Whitelaw, eccentric dowager Athene Seyler and disgruntled teacher of etiquette Hattie Jacques are among the peculiar residents of a boarding house who turn into modern day Robin Hoods, stealing fur for charity.

All three titles have been digitally re-mastered.
