However, as soon as the Cor-Blimey's emanate from these London cockney's the illusion is shattered and we feel reassured that this is going to be a who-who of British acting talent, mostly being really rather funny, or stupid. The caper itself is a devilish affair, a sort of film-noir since Brenda de Banzie gets kidnapped but her millionaire wheeler-dealer hubby Terry Thomas refuses to pay up as he's glad to be rid of her!
She then sets out get her own back on him and steal the ransom for herself, by persuading the crooks holding her that they'll each receive a share. In some ways, the plot matters little; it's scenes such as the Courtroom, with the always great John Le Messieur as magistrate, totally unable to control his subjects and of course, Terry Thomas himself, who is the epitome of OTT, rather vulgar and haughty - and sneering, mustn't forget sneering - sort of braggart that we know him so well for.
Production values, from Italian director Mario Zampi are well up on any Carry On's and probably on-par with the best Ealings, but slicker, which oddly doesn't suit rough-and-tumble comedy that well. That said, a minor but enjoyable British comedy, which mainly remains wholly watchable through our fondness for its many so-familiar stars.
