A DEVOUT Baptist couple couldn't believe their eyes when their Doris Day family film turned out to be a porn flick - so they watched the whole movie to make sure before complaining.
Pensioners Alan and Anne Leigh-Browne thought they had bought a £2.99 DVD of the 1957 U-certificate Pajama Game from a bargain bin at a Safeway supermarket.
But inside the box was Tettore che Passione, which translates as "Breasts of Passion".
Retired doctor Alan, 67, said: "We knew something was amiss when a warning flashed up on the screen advising under-18s not to carry on watching.
"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."
The couple had expected to see the harmless story of a bunch of women workers in a pajama factory.
Alan went on: "Topless women appeared and started talking in Italian. We were horrified.
"The film became progressively more graphic. There was no plot to it - just sex."
Alan and Anne, 60, a retired teacher, are regulars at their local Baptist church in Wellington, Somerset.
A spokesman for Morrisons, which owns the Safeway store in Taunton, promised to investigate.
