Double Take (1972)
2/10
What A Drag
20 October 2023
Starring Reg Varney who was at the time at the peak of his On The Buses fame. This film makes OTB look like an all-time comedy classic.

The script is woeful, written by someone with the surname of Hackney,which just about sums this up.

There are some interesting guest stars and of course there is a glimpse of Pinewood Studios. Given that most of the film takes place there it shows how low the budget is.

Varney and Rossington end up in drag which seemed to be almost obligatory for comedians of that era. They can't carry it off like Dick Emery can.

One just wonders what persuaded the Rank Organisation to invest money in and distribute this film.
