The Captain's Table
1959, English. Directed by Jack Lee.
Another Hilarious Comedy From the Author of the Notorious "Doctor in the House" Series!
A captain is promoted by his company from tramp steamers to their flagship passenger liner. Although he is a thoroughly competent sailor ready to take charge of such a ship, he is less prepared for the social duties his new position involves, not least the way he in which becomes the target for all the unattached women on board.
