Film Description
A northern comedy double bill featuring Love's a Luxury, a light-hearted farce, and What a Carry On, in which two men enlist in the army.
Love’s A Luxury (1952) stars Hugh Wakefield, Derek Bond and Helen Shingler in a light comedy originally written as a stage farce. A theatre producer and actor try in vain to have a quiet week in a country cottage. But their efforts
turn into comic disaster as a variety of wives, girlfriends and scoutmasters arrive uninvited.
What A Carry On! (1949) stars northern comedy greats, Jimmy Jewel and Ben Warriss, who decide to enlist in the army. Their singing sergeant-major, the Irish tenor Josef Locke, misappropriates the mess funds. When he picks on Jewel and Warriss, the duo’s comic routines come thick and fast.
This film was another blockbuster for Mancunian Studios but was considered lost until a poor quality print was uncovered. This shortened version is the only record of the Jewel and Warriss partnership. Despite its variable quality, it has been added as a bonus feature for their many fans.
