Overpaid, Oversexed & Over Here

Film Description

Features the classic film A Welcome to Britain (Asquith, 1943), a film made for the Strand Film Unit to explain funny money, warm beer, driving on the wrong side of the road and other British customs to apprehensive young GIs arriving in war-time Britain. It stars Burgess Meredith, then a Lieutenant in the US Air Transport Command (perhaps now best remembered as 'The Penguin' in the Batman TV series and as Sylvester Stallone's trainer in Rocky). It also features a sketch with Bob Hope trying to explain pounds, shillings and pence, and a performance from legendary comedienne Beatrice Lillie. Also includes Letter From Ulster, in which we meet US airmen stationed in Northern Ireland.
