with a cast of stalwart british character actor and please photography of 1950s britain and i have hop and expect to be more entertain by this film . unfortunately i find myself glue to it for the wrong reason i couldn not quite believe how awful it be . i must have watch thousand of old film and be always ready to make allowance for them be product of their time and but this be really hard go . a others have note and a major problem be that it doesn not seem to know what it want to be represent a gentle romantic comedy and a slapstick comedy or a musical . i be a bit gobsmacked when jeannie carson suddenly break into song about 15 minute in . it not believable on any level and either the storyline itself or the fact that daisy never appear to have an ounce of menace in her at any time . other aspect which defy credibility include the casting of suave donald sinden a a songwriter ( a songwriter for god sake . ) and the fact he have diana dors for a fiancée and doesn not appear to have the slight interest in her ( i mean and diana dors . come on . ) and a ludicrous scene in a song publisher office . the whole thing silly in the bad possible way . if i have to pick a favourite scene it would be the one at the very begin with that wonderful actor wilfred lawson after that everything go downhill in a big way .
