Grouchy Ivor Salter inherits a guest house in Brighton from his aunt, so he moves the entire family out. With a wonky furnace, a son, David Hemmings, who keeps chasing dancer Andrea Monet, and a surly cook-housekeeper-furnace engineer in Avril Angers, he tries to make changes and update the place, but there's little money to do so. Meanwhile, Hemmings gets a job on a local newspaper, only to discover he's low pole on the totem pole.
Lance Comfort's next-to-last movie -- he died the following year at the age of 58 -- tries to raise interest for a young audience by putting in several rock acts, which become a plot point towards the end of this slightly-plotted movie. The pre-invasion sound of the British acts is pretty much like their American counterpoints, and the musical interludes are fit into the movie diagetically. If you like this sort of music, you'll enjoy it.
