No prizes will be handed out for guessing that this is a vehicle for the great — in some books — Mr Dick Emery. When Emery discovers his freshly dead accountant has left the number of a safety deposit account tattooed to the derrière of several young models, he sets to with gusto. This is a McGill seaside postcard come to boozy, nudge-nudge, wink-wink, “mine's a large one” life, and if that's to your taste then it belts along like a runaway Blackpool tram. With the likes of William Franklyn, Pat Coombs and Ronald Fraser in attendance, you cannot complain that nobody flagged “Beware”.

Bit of history
Worth watching just to see the old cars! I always liked Dick Emery.He was another one-off, like Frankie Howerd. I'm not sure what my children thought of the film, but it's part of their education! These cultural French films are all very well, but you still need a laugh sometimes...
