- Synopsis:
- Norman Wisdom's immense popularity stems from his hilarious portrayal of the little guy who always seems to win out in the end. The cloth-capped bumbler is one of the great creations of british comedy. Failing at his job. Norman (Norman Wisdom) decides to seek another. He applies for a job as the wealthy Lady Banderville's window cleaner. When he travels out to her estate he finds it surrounded by high walls. Barbed wire and electric fences. These, Lady Banderville (Ambrosine Phillpotts) explains, are because she fears that someone will try to kidnap her foolhardy son, Sir Reginald (Michael Caridia), a born practical joker...
