Reviews

malcolmgsw This film stars radio comedians Revnell and West and crooner Donald Peers.Top billed is Ronnie Shiner who would reach stardom after the war.The film does not have much of a plot.The girls tray to enlist in the WRAF so that they can attend a camp show.They borrow uniforms and attend the show where they perform a number.They are assigned to a barrage balloon detachment and sing another song.They try to get out of camp but they can't without a pass.They manage to escape from the camp.They hide in a house which is being used by spies.They manage to recover stolen secret papers.There is a chase and the spies are caught.At the end there is a sequence showing the balloon units in operation which is about the only thing of interest in the film.
