6/10
a lot of location filming
20 June 2022
I did not really find this wonderful but is interesting in that it has Bernard Cribbins, Bill Kerr, John Le Mesurier, Graham Stark, Arthur Mullard and a young Nanette Newman and a glimpse of Michael Caine, uncredited, at a Police Station. I am not, for some reason, so very keen about Lionel Jeffries but I have to say that Peter Sellers is fantastic. It is just a shame that we only get the great scenes of him in the earlier on. There is a lot of location filming with many splendid streets of Beaconsfield and also in Uxbridge and a splendid gasometer. There are also many great shots in Teddington including the railway and level crossing and another gasometer. There also more great shots of day and night round London including Old Compton Street in Soho and also an unusual scene at Denham Aerodrome. There are also fantastic scenes on the Battersea Park Funfair and even a shot of the Battersea Power Station. So even if the film doesn't seem as funny there are some 60's locations to have some fun.
