Description

One of the funniest British comedies in the music hall tradition of the thirties. Comedian Will Hay stars as Mr Porter, a railway attendant whose boss has been wanting to fire him for 20 years. He has been unable to because Porter is a relative of the Managing Director and is determined to become a station master, somewhere! He is eventually commissioned to a near-decrepit station in Ireland, where he organises a train for a sinister man to board. To his surprise, the train vanishes.

    Certainly my all time favourite film in the classic old british comedy style. The jokes are well timed making it funny however many times you watch it and gives a reminder of days past. I used to drive by the old station remains each day and couldn’t help but imagine Hay trying to open the gates with the wheel! Timeless!

    I use to watch this with my Dad when I was really young and I've loved it ever since. A real feel happy kind of film for me! Not just for the older viewers either. I'm 20 and I still try and show it to all my friends!

    This is an old black and White film, It is a classic of Will Hay. I remember this from my childhood I am 45 now. A good film one of his best, but don't expect anything special by Today's standards. If you fancy watching an old comedy then these guys were funny.
