    What a Whopper

    Heart-throb pop star Adam Faith ("Tony") is a struggling author who cannot get his book about the famed Loch Ness monster published. It purports to be a serious work and naturally all the publishers know there's no such beastie. Determined to prove them wrong, he and some pals fake some photos and soon the world and it's wife is heading to verify the sightings. Now as a Scot, this irked on a couple of levels - not least Faith's appalling attempt at the accent and director Gilbert Gunn's determination not to use any Scottish actors at all, as far as I could see. Sidney James as the Highland hotel owner really did take the proverbial biscuit. Despite these rather obvious, doubtless budget-driven clangers, at times it's actually quite a fun, light-hearted, wheeze but it's really let down by the fairly stilted acting across the board which is almost as ropey as the stereotype-ridden script. Needless to say, the filming never left the home counties and as for the theme song - well, least said. It does have a nostalgia value - simple comedy around an even more simple story, but it's still not very good.

    The Hoax Or Miss Lessley's Rear?

    Adam Faith can't sell his book about the Loch Ness Monster. All the publishers say that Nessie hasn't been seen in a long time. So he and Charles Hawtrey drive up to Scotland to fake evidence, picking up Marie France and Carole Lessley along the way. Once on site, their plans become mixed up with Sid James'. He's the owner of the pub they're staying at who's catching salmon out of season and selling them to a black marketeer.

    The burlesque-like sexuality of this comedy is set in the first shot, with the camera following Miss Lessley on the street, with a close-up of her derriere. The rest of the movie seems to consist of CARRY ON hijinx, mixed with a plot which handles Faith's duplicity as if it is the most normal thing in the world. Credit, if that's the right word, with a script co-written by Terry Nation.

    Faith was transitioning from a two-hit musical wonder to an actor. He seems to have had moderate success with the latter career. He died in 2003 at the age of 62.

    This small scale, frequently fishy caper proves to be a Loch of monster-sized laffs!'

    A young, raffish down-on-his-luck writer with a gimlet-sharp eye for the young ladies (Adam Faith) ambitiously hatches an ingeniously madcap plot to orchestrate a sighting of the infamously elusive Loch Ness Monster with a little help from his amiably eccentric, Nessie-faking beatnik chums in Gilbert Gunn's delightfully kooky 60s comedy caper! 'What A Whopper!' is not only endowed with a truly 'whopping' cast of iconic film and telly-box favourites, including Terry Scott, Clive Dunn, Wilfrid Brambell, Spike Milligan and bawdy comedy Lothario par excellence Sid James, and Blake's 7 showrunner Terry Nation's pratfall-perfect, wonderfully whacky, slapstick n' tickle script, while admittedly a small scale, frequently fishy cinematic affair is also a Loch of monster-sized laffs!

    The soothingly nostalgic British comedy 'What A Whopper!' is atmospherically set against the bucolic majesty of mountainous, myth-laden Scotland, a suitably bracing backdrop for the hilariously outlandish hi-jinks and blissfully bonkers buffoonery of our bungling beatniks! Their intrepid attempt to contrive a media frenzy about the sudden return of the legendary lake dwelling diva Nessie not infrequently inspires some especially inspired lunacy by our endearingly shambolic, far from expert fraudsters! Frothily factor in some dreamy sing-along Adam Faith pop, alongside no less fine compositions by music maestro Laurie Johnson, heroically hyping up the crowd-pleasing multitude of amusingly silly rough N' tumble comedy shenanigans, all being breezily directed by the talented Gilbert Gunn guarantees that fans of vintage British comedy will find the galloping gag-fest 'What A Whopper!' a warmly-fuzzy feel-good delight from start to finish.

    A highly underrated film,BRILLIANT.

    I saw this film advertised in the paper but with no review. So I taped it off BBC2 then watched it having just seen that it had Adam Faith and Sid James in it. I would rate it as a 12 because although there is no swearing or actual sex scenes in it;the humour is mostly innuendo. This film is not mentioned in 1)the Virgin film guide

    2)Halliwells Who's Who in the movies

    3)Leonard Maltins movie & video guide. Which I have found to mean films they want to forget which are generally gems.Another example being "Langrishe go down" with Dame Judi Dench. Besides the afore mentioned "What A Whopper" also had Wilfred Bramble Charles Haughtrey, Spike Milligan and Clive Dunn make for an impressive if refreshingly UNPC mild comedy.

    I don't see...

    I don't see why this film as so many bad reviews, It's a pleasing British comedy of it's era (1961) with a cracking cast.

    It's the type of film you'd get on BBC2 on a wet afternoon when I was a kid.

    How can any film with Sid James, Spike Milligan (Who seems to be in the wrong film...), Charles Hawtrey not be an easy pleasing nostalgic view?.

    Maybe I'm of the last generation that appreciates this type of film...I hope not.

      Aspiring writer Jeremy Lloyd was working as a travelling salesman of rust-proof paint in the late 1950s when he wrote a story called 'What a Whopper' about a Cockney youth who runs tours to see the Loch Ness monster. After delivering paint near Pinewood Studios, he pitched the script to studio chief Earl St John, who bought it.
    • गूफ़
      The barrow boy at the beginning of the film seems to refer to Adam Faith's character as Terry. This is Adam's real name but his character is called Tony. The line is delivered very quickly, though, and it is indeed possible that he says Tony.
