An absolutely wonderful film.
I was brought up on Arthur Askey and Will Hay films, so I can appreciate the humour. Arthur Askey is my favourite comedian. This has to be one of my favourite films.
The line where Bill says to his wife Sal, 'He'll never make an engine driver, that Wally. His eyes aren't far enough apart to see through the engine windows'. Absolutely priceless!!! The cast is great, with both Arthur and Thora Hird putting in great performances. Also, an hilarious turn from Rob Wilton.
I would recommend this film to anyone who likes silliness! Especially of the Askey variety.
(FYI the guy who played Wally, is, apparently, who Ronnie Barker copied his stutter from in Open All Hours)
