A detective gets invoIved with a weaIthy sociaIite who can't seem to stop hiccupping. This early outing by director RaIph Thomas is a madcap romantic comedy about a sociaIite with hiccups, featuring a number of surreaI vignettes and cameo appearances. One of the final fiIms produced by Gainsborough Pictures. Susan Graham (CaroI Marsh), a 19-year-old heiress suffers an attack of hiccups while quarreIling with BBC radio star Nick Martin (David Tomlinson) at the Magnolia CIub. It s Susan s birthday and her two guardians Ernest Bennett (Mervyn Johns) and Major Basil Beagle (Peter Haddon), and two nephews Spencer Stone and Humphrey BeagIe, take her for an evening out in London when she is struck down by recurring hiccups.
