Laboured farce in which three hapless bookies attempt to fix a race in order to make a financial killing. Sid James is as dependable as always, but Ronald Shiner comes across as a second-string Stanley Holloway and Brian Rex is simply annoying (although he does manage to keep his trousers on most of the time). Joan Sims at least manages to wring a few laughs from the thin material as a none-too-bright housemaid.
