I have spent about 15 years trying to find this film which I saw one night tucked away on Beeb 2. It is very dated and of its time but it is a veritable whos who of British Comedy stars of its day.
The humour redates all the so called lads films like American Pie but it is just as risque and does so in a uniquiely British way by the comedic genius that was David Niven.
Watch it and allow for it's quanitness and I guarantee if you like British Comedies of the late 60s you will love it.
BTW Listen out for the theme tune as I guarantee you wont get it out of your head.

The film was not quite what I expected but good fun. Lovely to see David Niven in a comedy with John Cleese. It was good entertainment but not for young children, an adult film.
