    Any film boasting Sid James, Tommy Cooper and Brian Rix in the cast has to be worth a look, but there are few laughs to be had in this screen version of the stage farce The Chigwell Chicken. Rix stars as a singularly hopeless boxer who has to keep his career hidden from his disapproving archdeacon uncle. John Paddy Carstairs (who guided Norman Wisdom to fame) co-wrote the script with John Junkin, but every punch is pulled and not even Rix and James who had done well together on Dry Rot make it worth going the distance.

    A Lame Duck...

    I really expected more from such an illustrious cast but I guess in all fairness it?s the script lets them down. It plods and drifts around not really going anywhere leaving you to keep glancing at the clock wondering how much longer it?s got to go and as far as laughs are concerned, well they?re very few and far between. Don?t bother with this it?s just dead on its feet. Honest! 2 - 10

    Hairs on it!

    I had never heard of this film, and now I know why. It just seemed rather corny and dated, and I consider myself pretty tolerant in the corny film line! It's the first film I've ever seen Tommy Cooper in. It's a novelty, that's all I can say. Try it if you like.
