Pre-war propaganda with Formby in an above average comedy vehicle
Rejected from the RAF, George (Formby) dons his brother-in-law's RAF uniform and pretends to be a despatch rider, but finds himself stuck in the camp under orders and having to take part in drills.
Good standard, charming and enjoyable Formby star vehicle. Made in pre-war, pre-Munich Britain, this is a patriotic early propaganda film produced by Basil Dean. It also includes such great tunes as 'Our Sergeant Major' which has a couple of good support performances from the likes of Julien Mitchell and Formby regular Garry Marsh.
