A fatigued transport officer, Captain Anson, his loyal MSM, two stranded nurses and a mysterious South African officer endure a gruelling journey across the North African desert and enemy lines in a battered old ambulance in WWII. All that sustains them is Anson's promise of the tall, frothy, ice-cold glasses of beer that await them upon their arrival in Alexandria (the "Alex" of the title).

Adapted by Christoper Landon from his own classic novel and based on his own experiences serving in North Africa, ICE COLD IN ALEX is a rip-roaring tale of determination, courage and ingenuity in the most unforgiving of environments, and the friendships that are born out of such endurance. Stars John Mills, Sylvia Syms, Harry Andrews and Anthony Quayle.
