The Duke Wore Jeans

In the musical classic The Duke Wore Jeans, Tommy Steele plays the dual roles of Prince and Pauper: both as a chirpy Cockney Lad bearing an uncanny resemblance to a local Duke, and the young Duke himself.

Tommy is sent in the latter's place to woo a princess from an oil-rich South American monarchy, to make a political match and save the Duke's family fortune. Faced with the interference of conspiring politicians, not to mention the Princess' own stubbornness, will Tommy win her over with his serenades?

First released: Monday 19th July 2010
