Mishaps of a northern family on holiday

This comedy features some location work on the Isle of Man. A Manx Electric Railway tramcar with trailer No.62 appears in one shot at the Derby Castle terminus whilst Douglas Bay Horse-drawn tram No.40 appears in another. In the scenes filmed on the mainland in Blackpool there are some distant shots of trams at the Lancashire resort.
