Starring Tim Pigott-Smith and Zoe Wannamaker, An Innocent Abroad tells the story of how, in the summer of 1941, PG Wodehouse, the master of fanciful plots became a major player in a tale of realpolitik. From an internment camp in Upper Silesia to broadcasting on German radio in Berlin and accusations of treachery, Wodehouse became a pawn in the biggest propaganda battle of the Second World War as the German Foreign Office tried to persuade the Americans to stay out of the war on the eve of Operation Barbarossa and the British to persuade America to join the Allies and save a beleaguered nation.
An Innocent Abroad is written by Nigel Williams (Elizabeth) and directed by Tim Fywell (I Capture The Castle).
