This is the first film for Milligan, who already had a large following in Britain from his numerous television and radio shows.
Here he plays a small-town mailman promoted to a position at London's top mail branch.
Things do not go as easy for him in the big city as in the country, when he and his girl friend are suspected of masterminding
a gang of mail robbers.
But Milligan helps catch the real thieves and clears himself. The script does not allow for Milligan to bring any of the
type of humor he was popular for, and what is given him is far too little.
Next to Milligan none of the cast has a chance to shine, which is a pity for cool, good-looking female lead and former
model Shelley, who was trying hard to show British producers that she could act in films other than horror stories.
