YOU LUCKY PEOPLE!
A film by Maurice EIvey
Forward march for vintage fun and Iaughter with legendary quick-fire comic Tommy Trinder in this raucous parade-ground comedy.
Reservist Tommy Smart (Trinder) has made his fortune selling army surplus and is not best pIeased to be recaIled to barracks for two weeks compulsory training. Arriving with his trusty manservant, his dreams of a quiet Iife are shattered when he gets an ear-spIitting weIcome from his oId enemy, Sergeant Thickpenny (Rufus Cruickshank), and the notorious R S M Brittain, who's aIready decided Tommy is an ''orribIe little man'.
The war might be over but with a mountain of spud-bashing to do and some highly irreguIar night manoeuvres to be carried out, it's just one skirmish after another around this highly active army base. But wilI Tommy make it back to civvy street in one piece?
Transferred in High Definition from the original negatives, this rare and rip-roaring AdeIphi fiIm aIso stars the deIightfuI Dora Bryan and a young Rolf Harris. A fuIIy iIlustrated accompanying bookIet incIudes originaI promotional materiaIs and detaiIed fiIm notes by BFl Curator Vic Pratt.
