      My brief review of the film
      A reasonably amusing British comedy with some great lines, it is nevertheless often slow-moving and rather stale between the jokes. The same team struck gold with a film called 'Fighting Stock' a year later, but this entry is still worth checking out, with Ralph Lynn as delightful as ever. Yet, it is not much in the way of great film-making, with the content insufficient for the short running time, and there is a silly dream sequence added in for arguably little purpose except to buff up the film's length. Fans of British comedies from the era should find enough to enjoy in it, but it is hard to guarantee this for other viewers.
