Director: Harry Watt
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Sailors Trinder and Hale plus plucky Wren Frances Day are struck by lightning on Salisbury Plain and transported back to Ancient Rome, where they're acclaimed as powerful seers and outwit Sullivan's cheerily debauched Nero. Cheeky wartime British comedy with odd imaginative touch (associate producer Robert Hamer reshot a good deal of it). James Robertson Justice appears as a young centurion.Author: TJ
