Storyline

A 1930's British summer Bank Holiday starts at midday on Saturday with a rush for the trains to the seaside. Doreen Richards under the name Miss Fulham is off with friend Milly to a beauty contest. Geoffrey and nurse Catherine Lawrence have decided to spend an illicit weekend in the Grand Hotel, although Catherine's mind keeps turning back to the hospital case she was working on. Arthur, May and the children are set on a more straightforward holiday of sea, sand, and pub. Meanwhile, the manager and performers of the "Follies" on the pier pray for rain. Written by Jeremy Perkins {J-26}

Trivia

One storyline concerning an unmarried couple enjoying a sexual relationship was initially deemed in violation of the US censor guidelines and the film unsuitable for release. After re-editing, it was re-titled and passed for release. See more »

Goofs

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): An expectant mother just about to enter the operating room for delivery is shown stretched out on a gurney. She does not appear in the least to be pregnant. See more »
