Sailors Three / Save A Little Sunshine

Sailors Three / Save A Little Sunshine

Tommy Trinder brings all his trademark charisma and energy to Save A Little Sunshine, as a man uses some reward money to buy himself a boarding house, but the tumbledown establishment soon provides more trouble than profit as he finds himself working day and night to keep the place running. Also features the music-hall legend Max Wall.

The first of Trinder's films for Ealing Studios, Sailors Three, is an uproarious comedy of errors. After a drunken night out, three British sailors accidentally board the wrong ship - only to discover that it is a German destroyer. The three hapless sailors attempt to capture the enemy vessel for themselves and sail it back to England.

First released: Sunday 18th July 2010
