Secret agent Matt Helm (Dean Martin) is called in to stop a plan to steal over one billion dollars in gold. With the help of the fumbling female agent Freya (Sharon Tate), the two race against time to stop the devious plan of Count Contini (Nigel Green) and his henchmen. The Count is aided by a bevy of women (Nancy Kwan, Tina Louise and Elke Sommer) who attempt to throw the world economy into chaos with the heist.
There’s plenty of comedy, action, murders and martial arts sequences in The Wrecking Crew (Friday 18th, 12.30pm) – with the added bonus that September marks 60 years since the character’s debut in Donald Hamilton’s novel Death Of A Citizen.
