- Synopsis:
A woman comes forward as one of several claimants to the Romanov fortune. Is she really the Grand Duchess Tatiana, daughter of the last Czar of Russia? A pint-sized parachutist proves too tough for the USAF; he is a 10-year-old Polish orphan, wearing a sergeant's uniform and found as a stowaway on a British cargo ship. In post-war Naples, a young priest, Father Mario Borrelli, lives and works among the scugnizzi - wild street gangs of abandoned children and teenagers. April, 1945: a war correspondent arrives in Munich in search of a world scoop. Instead, in Hitler's home, he finds and reveals one of the war's strangest exploits... Just a few of the accounts brought to life in this anthology of thirteen individual dramas based on the adventures of famous foreign correspondents - witnesses to some of the most extraordinary stories of the twentieth century. First screened in 1957 and unseen for over fifty years, 'Overseas Press Club - Exclusive!' features performances by, among many others, Phyllis Calvert, Richard O'Sullivan, Peter Wyngarde, Robert Raglan and Peter Arne. - Actors:
