A sort of British 'Keystone Cops' with sound. Anarchy and disorganised but inspired lunacy down at the local nick. Funny how nothing changes - or is it just life imitating art? Sid James stars as the long-suffering Sergeant Wilkins who has been given the job of training four new cadets . . . . and they are turning out to be every bit as bad as he feared!

Shooting began 9th November 1959 Debut: Sid James
Although usually strictly sticking to a script, the occasional ad-lib sometimes crept in and was allowed to stay.
In the scene where Charles Hawtrey rises from bed talking to his budgie, he kicks a chamber pot which refuses to stay still and shouts at it "Be quiet!".
