Captain Parmalee and Ranger Reese Bennett make no appearance at all and Peter Brown and William Smith are just supporting characters in this Laredo story. Taking center stage are Chad Stuart and Jeremy Clyde of Chad&Jeremy part of the British musical invasion of the middle 60s.
Poor Chad and Jeremy they are a pair of itinerant strolling players who are left in town when the manager of their theatrical troupe absconded with company money without paying the bill. They're last ones left and are stuck with it.
To say these two are not western material is to say the least. But as actors they try a bit of a con game where Stuart pretends he's a preacher they've been left a parson's outfit. It works all too well because gunfighter Peter Graves wants to marry his sweetheart Marlyn Mason. No good if they tell him the truth, no good if they perform a fake ceremony. Talk about lose lose.
Peter Graves plays it exactly that, grave and unsmiling. No twinkle in the eye, but it all works as part of the comedy.
Both Chad and Jeremy have done pretty well for themselves long after the musical act broke, but on the big and small screen across the pond. Their bit on Laredo was good exposure for their musical act which was pretty big at the time.
They even do a bit of singing. So fans of the British invasion tune in.
