Comment/Synopsis

The head of an American company is in England to choose between two different airplanes, however the chief designer of one of them gets off to a bad start when he has a car accident with him and then runs in to problems with him with his steam traction engine. This is a light hearted British comedy that has a silly plot, but is still fun. There are engaging performances from Michael Craig and Anne Helm and the whole film recreates a world of steam engines and life that no longer exists. This was produced by Peter Rogers and Gerald Thomas (of Carry On fame).
