A married man misses his train and has to spend the night with an old flame
This comedy was a remake of the 1933 movie A Cuckoo in the Nest (qv) and features opening scenes at London Paddington station. A train is departing from Platform 1, and an ex-GWR 0-6-0PT can be seen moving light engine behind a rake of coaches in another. Later in the film there is a good shot of a local train arriving at Denham Golf Club station behind an ex-LNER L1 Class 2-6-4T. The station is referred to as ‘Piddock’ in the film, but the following station scene of carriage interior and platform is a set.
