...Wodehouse. Private Stanley Windrush, played with a slightly pained, Bertie Woosterish expression by Ian Carmichael, progresses erratically from Gravestone Barracks, where he wakes up "feeling a little fragile," to an officers' selection board, where he confounds psychiatrists and loses his pants during an obstacle run. In the course of the hurlyburly, Windrush absorbs some of the rules of artful dodging in the service, e.g., "Never give your right name to anybody; otherwise they've got you," gets involved in a harebrained "Operation Hatrack" conceived by "Uncle Bertie," otherwise Brigadier General Bertram Tracepurcel.
