Entertaining who's who of British film making
13 July 2018
I really enjoyed this film, especially being able to spot so many character actors in small roles. Early appearances for Barbara Windsor and Joan Sims, and appearances by Joan Hickson, Marianne Stone and Dandy Nichols (all would appear in Carry On films). Seeing Marianne in this film makes me realise it's a shame that she never went on to have larger comedy parts.

This film might have been better if the parents had been played by British character actors rather than American, and it leaves me wondering who I'd have chosen as the well-to-do parents if I was able to cast. Dirk Bogarde and Julie Christie maybe?

As others have said, despite the subject matter this film is carried off quite light heartedly, and the colour photography is lovely. Well worth 90 minutes of your life.
