Norman Wisdom was the best all round entertainer of his generation. The funniest and most professional, he gave his 100% to all his work. Back in the 60s when I uses to live in Tehran, Persia, Norman performed in a cabaret in Tehran where my family and I went to see him. His performance was first class. He came to our table, talked and he truly was a humble, decent and kind man. We couldn't stop laughing at his joke and laughter and falling down. Rest in peace and thank you so much for everything.

Shame that not many people watching those amazing old films with the greatest actors of all times,

[@darrensinnott2197]

I love these films....just managed to get hold of The Rebel with Tony Hancock.....I love all these kind of films, they have a great feeling to them and are so unique. My favourites are Rita Tushingham in Taste Of Honey and Whatever Happened To Baby Jane with Bette Davis and Joan Crawford....wonderful wonderful films...

Norman Wisdom?? I grew up during this period and nobody I knew would have wasted money on this alleged comedy.

Too bad the greatest actors didn't appear in this one eh?

Whenever I would go to my nanny’s house as a child I would always watch the Norman Wisdom films!! They were honestly the best😂

Me too, because the films were clean. This was in the 1960s. My nana also introduced us kids to watching the horse racing on TV and betting with matches 😂. I miss her.

Many have been compared to Norman Wisdom , but you can't beat the original. I enjoyed this film very much where ever Norman goes trouble comes.

Norman starred in a TV play set in a hospice/hospital where everyone was dying. He was a fantastically good serious actor

Just love Mr Wisdom. He was a very funny and entertaining man

[@ieuanbriers]

When I was a kid, my uncle gave me 5 Norman Wisdom Films, this was one along with 'The Square Peg', 'The Early Bird', 'Up in the World' and 'Follow a Star'. It was these films that got me into Norman Wisdom and this was one of my favourites (Along with 'Follow a Star' and 'Up in the World). But I haven't seen it for a long time. Tonight's film for me.

I have a Bristish sur name so I have much appreciation for Bristish comedy. Love Monty Python, Benny Hill act. I'm almost 50 and I've always enjoyed Bristish comedy. Thank you for blessing me to see this and laugh emminsly.

[@Pooky-Cat]

A word to the wise 😉Most Brits find Benny Hill an embarrassment, his TV programmes were made when our 'national humour' was dredging the depths.

[@JacknVictor]

​@@Pooky-Cat the thing is, Benny Hill was a very kind, caring gentleman who lived a very normal existence despite being world famous. When the little slap-head fella, Jackie Wright, became ill and could no longer work, Benny went through old unused footage of him to include in every episode, so that he could receive credits, and as such, a wage, to help him and his family through hard times. He cooked and cleaned for his elderly neighbours and he was very selfless. He himself was not happy with the direction that ITV took his show, with all the glamour models etc as he said it took away from the comedy elements out, but he had to work with what they gave him. He was proud of what he achieved, and unlike many others of his day who were around untold bucketfuls of boobs and fanny on tap, he behaved impeccably, treating each one of his on screen girls like they were his daughter and not as a piece of meat. He can't be faulted as a person or as a gentleman.

His worst film I think,but he’s entitled to one

[@user-ct1cj6hs8d]

One of his best, clever work to take the basic plot from a novel to build the comedy on, brilliance from Norman as usual plus a bunch of the many great 'nobody' actors we used to have, and lavish location filming by the hard up or stingy standards of most old British films. For those wondering why these types of films disappeared - this was a flop for some reason...

[@plotstoraisethedead]

Wisdom was blue-collar, not a PM's grandson.

[@malcolmclements9254]

This was filmed in the South coast town of Teignmouth. The station is still there and most the town is the same

[@danielrussell446]

It’s hardly changed since then some unusual editing in places when you know the town!

[@user-ct1cj6hs8d]

When bombing medieval cities like Exeter they dropped spare bombs on nearby towns that were also on their list. I wonder if that explains the long wide rather empty strip outside where the train station (really) is - it's not at the top of that slope, that leads to a park I think (as far as I recall).

I'm a massive Norman wisdom fan but I never really liked this one.. I love the music and buss chase. The 3 films he done before this on the beat a stitch in time and the early bird were brilliant so I can understand why this did not do as well.

Definitely not the best of Wisdom's comedies - some good ideas with the multiple roles, but no follow through. He was definitely too old for the role at 51 - a comedian half his age would have suited the role better. But the seaside town is attractive, and you get Derek Bond (and if you don't sneeze, Helen Mirren in an uncredited role as a beauty contestant). Frances White looks like she's in the wrong picture and instead should be starring in one of the era's "kitchen sink" dramas - and I mean that as a complement!

Later films were pretty corny and nowhere near as good as on the beat etc?

[@jacobburtonswfc]

Not his best, his films are better in black and white

[@paddymeboy]

I think the best one is The Early Bird, which is colour. Too many of them are based on over-contrived situations, mistaken identity etc, or - in this case - being the PM's grandson.

[@jacobburtonswfc]

@@paddymeboy I'd say Up In The World, On The Beat and A Stitch In Time are better

[@raytaaffe6588]

What a load of mind-numbing boring old rubbish. Norman was very talented and a great star in his day, but when was 'his day'? This is SO dated it must have been a thousand years ago. People were easily pleased in those days for sure.

[@michellefalleur960]

Not everybody liked him, by a long way
