The film begins in a BBC studio with the 100th edition of "In Town Tonight". Flotsam and Jetsom open with a "topical number". Then there is an interview with a distinguished actor, which dissolves into a performance of one of his famous melodramas about a wicked moneylender etc.

Look out for a very young Eric Portman in this cheery cannibalisation of quite a few stories and characters. Nothing at all original here, but it's fun to watch Tod Slaughter being, well, himself.
