'Doris Day' film proves a rude shock to churchgoing Britons

Thu Jan 27, 7:09 AM ET Offbeat - AFP

LONDON (AFP) - It was when a topless woman appeared on screen speaking Italian that devout Christians Alan and Anne Leigh-Browne realised the Doris Day film they had bought might have been wrongly packaged.

The elderly British couple urged the supermarket where they bought the DVD purporting to be "The Pajama Game", the 1957 romantic comedy starring the wholesome US actress, to investigate what went wrong.

(snip)

Settling down to watch it, the Leigh-Brownes found themselves instead faced with a raunchy sex title called "Tettore che Passione", or Breasts of Passion.

(snip)

"Then some topless young women appeared and started talking in Italian, we were horrified, it's not what you expect from a Doris Day film.

"It was a pretty raunchy, explicit film, it certainly pulled no punches. My wife and I were very shocked but we watched it until the end because we couldn't believe what we were seeing.

Hey, don't be embarassed. If you guys enjoyed it, just go rent some more.

Jesus won't care, honest. You're married -- it's okay with God!
