Amsterdam Queen -
An aging ocean liner berthed in New York Harbor on the maritime
comedy THE QUEEN AND I/CBS/1969. The Amsterdam Queen was slated to
be sold for scrap metal by its owner Commodore Dodds (Reginald
Owen).
The ships' only hope was purser Charley Duffy (Larry Storch)
who actively pursued any scheme he could to nix the sale. Duffy,
of course, had ulterior motives for his actions.
If the ship was sold he would not only lose his job but such
lucrative under-the-counter dealings as renting out onboard space
for weddings and bar mitzvahs without the consent of its owners.
Other crew members included Captain Washburn (Liam Dunn) and First Officer
Oliver Nelson (Billy De Wolfe), Charley's arch enemy.
