      Candleshoe is a stately home under threat. But a feisty American visitor is the
      catalyst for its survival, and the race is soon on to unearth the hidden treasure
      within its grounds, before a bumbling crook can get his hands upon the gold...

      Peter's duties included choreographing the climactic battle in the mansion, and
      the swordfight between David Niven and the villain played by Leo McKern.

     Peter doubled for Leo McKern throughout the film, as the photo above confirms.
     Yes, that's Peter with a latex nose and glued-on beard, made up like Leo. It's tough
     to distinguish between them, but Peter's present throughout that climactic fight.
     Look for him in the wide shots!
