A friend of mine recently told me of this film and was amazed that I was able to buy it at Amazon for the amazing price of £5.65 including P&P,just took 2 days ! living now in New Brighton,where the film is set and mostly filmed,and being at an age the be able to remember the 50's well,I was actually born the year this film was made,but it was a total delight to watch,seeing the overhead railway again,the beach,the Perch rock,the indoor fairground,I spent half my youth in there,and spotting all the locations around was wonderful,every person over 50 living on the Wirral should see this little film,not many real "scouse" accents though !...did anybody spot the businessman on the Overhead railway...surely that was Arthur Lowe but not mentioned in the credits,wonderful wonderful film.
