Helen Darling is upset that husband Billy Bletcher goes out to smoke a cigar with friends. She invents a perfect first husband and exhibits a picture of her uncle, Eddie Barry, a bug-hunter who's in Africa. Of course Eddie shows up and complications ensue in this good Christie comedy.
Eddie Barry is very funny in this one, but for me the fun is seeing Billy Bletcher in a straight role; other than some poorly-preserved pictures shot five years earlier in Florida, he spent his sound career as basically a voice artist, doing a lot of work in cartoons. His bass voice was at odds with his short stature.
Here, he is a decent movie pantomimist with a good line in 108 falls. Eddie Barry is also good and the gags, if standard for the era, are all well done, with a real plot, instead of the later Christie standard of cramming in the gags as fast as possible. Norman McLeod's title cartoons, a standard for Christie, are also fun.
