"Empty Pockets Always Make the Most Noise!"
22 October 2023
Liz Fraser seems to have been given a script meant for Diana Dors - an impression reinforced when she takes off her dress to reveal a black foundation garment. Rather too cute to be a convincing femme fatale, here she's rather improbably wed to Peter Reynolds.

Lance Comfort directs with style aided by regular cameraman Basil Emmott; while the cast includes an almost recognisably young Ray Smith and David Hemmings who display their aspirations to nonconformity by proposing a toast "To the Bomb!"

As the plot gets crazier and crazier (especially after a club-footed Kenneth Griffith shuffles in) you keep expecting Tony Wickert to wake up and discover It Was All a Dream, but the thing continues to the (very) bitter end.
