As British seventies comedies go, this isn't too bad

Being a Ronnie Corbett picture, this one's quite respectable. Unlike those tacky so-called 'sex comedies', there's no nudity in this and it's got a proper story. It's one of those hectic running around a lot farces, full of clichés, including the outraged vicar.Besides befuddled Ronnie Corbett, we have a very funny performance from the nice, respectable young couple: Ian Ogilvy and Susan Penhaligan whose nice respectable flat obviously gets mistaken as a drop off point for dirty books, dirty movies, a fuddy-duddy mother, a bank manager , several confused policemen and a couple of prostitutes.Turning a live theatre farce into a picture is never going to capture the energy and engagement of a live performance. It's never going to be as funny. This however isn't a bad adaptation. Sharing the same space as the performers in a theatre is a different experience to watching something on a screen so bring this to life, John Gale, who wrote the play did a superb job in creating a proper comedy film, not just a filmed stage play.

Great views of Windsor!

This is pretty dreadful and unfunny which is unfortunate as the cast has some great names. Ronnie Corbett tries his best in the lead role but the script is poor. Michael Robbins (On The Buses) is rather wasted as a car driver with only two small scenes. I think Ian Ogilvy is miscast as he's just not funny. Arthur Lowe is excellent as you might expect and Susan Penhaligon is very natural and looks like she's enjoying the whole thing. Interesting to see Michael Bates (It Ain't Half Hot Mum) in a relatively straight role while Beryl Reid sleepwalks through her part. For me though the most interesting thing is the shots (there are many) of Windsor town. Windsor was the location for Carry On films Cabby and Loving and Norman Wisdom's On The Beat.
