Eric Sykes plays a scoutmaster who takes eight scouts camping in peaceful Tangle Woods. When he and one of the cubs become lost, their hilarious adventures are monitored by the Police, Army, Navy, Air Force, MI5 and a bunch of crooks, almost turning Tangle Woods into Armageddon.
The film has a reasonably good idea to start with but it goes on and on AND ON. Far too long and it is too daft. Felt like I was watching it forever, a shame as Eric Sykes is a comedy legend.
