Delightful!

Not acknowledged as such, but probably the best of Sir Cliff's early sixties big screen vehicles; although even he dismissed it as "a disaster from the word go".

It has a witty script, choreography by Gillian Lynne performed by a young and enthusiastic cast, quirky little touches such as Gerald Harper cropping up in different supporting roles. And of course there's that wonderful potted history of the movies!

Guest stars Susan Hampshire and Walter Slezak are both well used; with Miss Hampshire cutting a far more provocative figure slouching from the waves in a bikini pastiching Ursula Andress in 'Dr. No' than Andress did in the original.
