Private Steven Flowers is posted to the Song and Dance Unit in South East Asia. Serving under the flamboyant Captain Terri Dennis, Private Seven Flowers discovers it takes more than just a uniform to become a man.
Simon Russell Beale plays the cross-dressing Captain Dennis whose performances of Marlene Dietrich, Vera Lynn and Carmen Miranda form the centrepiece of Peter Nichols' award-winning comedy set against the murderous backdrop of the Malaysian campaign at the end of the Second World War.
