The question bothered Georgia's Senator Richard Russell, the influential outgoing chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Their relationship, on the skids before the film begins, collapses utterly when George learns that she is to be written out of the program. The bearer of the sad tidings is a venomous BBC executive, Mercy Croft (Coral Browne), who doesn't give Childie a second look-she is too busy with the first.
