Movie Info

Simon Sparrow is a newly arrived medical student at St Swithin's hospital in London. Falling in with three longer-serving hopefuls he is soon immersed in the wooing, imbibing and fast sports-car driving that constitute 1950's medical training. There is, however, always the looming and formidable figure of chief surgeon Sir Lancelot Spratt to remind them of their real purpose.

The film's humor remains steadfastly reserved, to be sure, yet it's often memorably amusing.

One can understand after watching it why the public wanted to see more of the characters and their misadventures.

Slight comedy based on the antics of a group of naughty Brit medical students at a London hospital.
