Never count your chickens...

6/10

"A quite amusing regional comedy with some realistic sets including a football terrace and a good cast which is certainly more amusing than some of the films of forgotten Thirties star Leslie Fuller I have seen, though the plot about a family who believe they have won a fortune on the pools has been used several times since. An amusing performance from Marion Dawson, whose career was sadly soon to come to an end due to an eye injury, as the cadging neighbour and Mary Jerrold is good as Fuller's supportive wife...."
