Anecdotes
The movie was loosely based on the earlier Will Hay starring film Ask a Policeman (1939) which this remake's director Val Guest co-wrote.

Gaffes
As Bobby realises he's late for his date with Kim, Tommy forces the teacup onto him; some of the tea spills onto Bobby's shirt and starts to seep into a stain. However there is no sign of the damp spot in all subsequent shots during the scene.

Nadir Of The British Film Industry.

An appallingly stilted remake of a Will Hay classic (Ask A Policeman) featuring two comedians who look extremely uncomfortable outside the comforts of the TV studio or theatre. Compulsive viewing for anyone wishing to relive the nadir of the British film industry when TV tie-ins were considered a good investment. This film betrays it's limited budget in a number of ways particularly as it has the 'can't afford to wait for a sunny day' syndrome that adds a depressing gloom to so many British movies of this period. No laughs, no fun, nothing.
