What a mess! This ill-formed comedy has three threads in a slubby mess. Ronald Shiner has invented a device which cleans any surface immediately and is trying to raise a hundred pounds to get it to market. Jean Cadell and her "Purity League" is against any forth of moral filth, particularly the pretty girl in the advertisement that James Hayter's advertising agency has devised for her family firm. There's also goings-on between Tonia Bern, a singer in a racy show and a member of Hayter's staff. To make sure the audience knows that this is a comedy, characters have names like 'Tarbottom' and 'Bounceboy'. It all ends in a chase in which nothing seems to be resolved, but the movie ends.
Given that R.F. Delderfield had a hand in the script, and the cast includes actors like Joan Sims, it seems astonishing that not only is this an ill-spirited and unfunny effort, but that it was released at all. It's an early example of the sort of mildly racy comedies best remembered from the CARRY ON series. However, this sort of sniggering, chaos lacks even the well-formed burlesque humor of that comparatively distinguished series
