    "Alright Dillinger, make the tea...!"
    A game cast pitch in with enthusiastic performances in this fast and furious spin on 'No Orchids for Miss Blandish' relocated to postwar London; this time breathlessly played as farce and rejigged as a vehicle for a 16 year-old (15 & three-quarters according to the script) Pet Clark - who a couple of times gets to sing!

    As good-looking as you would expect of a film directed by a former cameraman. It briefly features the original Miss Blandish and one of her abductors - Linden Travers & Michael Balfour - from the previous year's version; which was probably funnier.
