No Sex Please - We're British

Released on RCA/Columbia Pictures (Silver Series).

Pure honest to goodness (although not too much goodness) British farce. Nervous Ronnie Corbett is a bank clerk who is thrown into confusion when a parcel of dirty postcards arrives at the bank. His employer, bombastically portrayed by Arthur Lowe, just so happens to be an anti-pornography campaigner; and when further parcels containing blue films and pornographic books follow, our little clerk finds it difficult to dispose of the offensive material without arousing suspicion. Based on the long running London stage play, this series of compromising situations and mistaken identity owes a great deal to the traditional British farce comedy. It is a classic of British comedies, with the timely falling trousers and verbal innuendo.
