Description: In 1872, an English gentleman claims he can circumnavigate the world in eighty days. He makes a £20,000 wager (worth about £1.6 million in 2015) with four sceptical fellow members of the Reform Club. Together with his resourceful valet, Passepartout (Cantinflas), Fogg goes hopscotching around the globe. After sailing across the Atlantic, and only hours short of winning his wager, Fogg is arrested upon arrival at Liverpool, by the diligent yet misguided Inspector Fix.
