Film Version
Following the fifth TV series a feature film version of the series was produced. The film was written not by Cooke and Mortimer but by Dick Sharples. The Fourmiles only played a small role in the film. The film focused on the original title characters celebrating their wedding anniversary, at Mildred's insistence, at a swanky London hotel, and featured several guest stars including Stratford Johns, Kenneth Cope and the up-and-coming Vicki Michelle. The film was neither a critical nor box office success.
