directed by Gerald Thomas. I learn that the cast, Juliet Mills, Ronald Lewis, Joan Sims, Noel Purcell, Esma Cannon, Raymond Huntley (him I knew for dark roles), Athene Seyler, Norman Rossington, Ronald Howard, Joan Hickson, Renée Houston (what a character!), Jim Dale, George Woodbridge, David Horne, etc., are regulars of the Carry on series but being French raised in France, I know next to nothing of this series. Besides, and albeit the alternate title, Nurse on Wheels is not of the Carry on cannon, I am said. Though mellowing too much in the second half of the footage, this film gives us thirty first minutes of pure and varied funny comedy. And there is a Esma Cannon, here, verging to the genious in clownery. Final note: the movie poster, is a complete lie in what it suggests. This movie is very 'family friendly' (and more for girls than boys). But, very nice indeed. During the opening credits, some cars you'll take the pleasure to identify (send me a message if they are of any interest). This little thing too, on the right side of the road: Amusante et innocente petite comédie anglaise très bien jouée, de celles que nous ne voyions jamais sur nos petits écrans français, et c'est bien dommage, je crois. -- Last edit: 2015-04-29 04:11:42 |

All-British cast for the motors too. |

Opening credits L-R - Ford 100E, Anglia Estate, Morris Oxford S2, Ford Pop 103E. No further action needed. Small toy beside road is a Goggo T300 - probably worth a page. |

And now it's not an all-British film anymore. |

The Morris is a Cowley, not an Oxford. No chrome strips on inside of grille, and rubber only on windscreen surround, no chrome trim. The over riders could easily have been fitted afterwards. |

.... so the picture could be added in comments to the other Cowley page. Not the same car as different plates. |
