A Cuckoo in the Nest

6/10

"You know what - this is actually not a bad effort from an ensemble cast that manages to squeeze quite a bit from a really frugal storyline. A man and a woman have to share a room at an overcrowded inn one night. Snags a plenty follow - they are married to other people but used to be engaged to each other - recipe for disaster if you ask me! Tom Walls and Yvonne Arnaud reunite alongside Ralph Lynn, an instantly recognisable (by his voice) Cecil Parker and Roger Livesey to keep the things bubbling along amusingly enough for 90 minutes. The comedy does rather telegraph the punchlines some way ahe..."
