A sailor is late for his own wedding, but a bigger problem occurs when he gets a message from the Navy saying that he can not marry for certain ‘legal’ reasons
This comedy was based on the 1960 play of the same name by Falkland Cary and Philip King, which was a sequel to their 1955 play Sailor Beware which was itself given the ‘big-screen’ treatment in 1956. This film features shots of expresses passing through two stations. The first shows a London Midland Region express passing through an unknown station in the hands of a ‘Jubilee’ 4-6-0, whilst the second shows a Western Region express passing through Slough in the hands of a ‘Castle’.
