I keep trying to watch this movie and every copy I get gets interrupted about a minute into the movie by something called "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". I have written to the authorities in question that the copy of this movie is apparently bad and that they should use another print to obtain a viewable copy. I find the lack of quality control in production of the VHS and DVDs to be particularly shocking. I understand that the BBC destroyed many of the prints and video shot during the time the film was made, but it is pretty shoddy to attempt to deceive the public by placing the opening of the film then substituting an obvious Norwegian import film for the remainder of the movie. Nothing against the Norwegian film industry, but it just isn't done. The whole thing smacks of a "bait and switch" con game.

Bob Monkhouse, a 1950s heart-throb, is a graduate dentist, who together with his friend is hired by a toothpaste company to sell their product. In the origin of the Oral B myth, they are threatened with being struck off the dentists's register if they are involved with advertising. They come up with a new toothpaste with the worrying ingredient "luminous thymol" and get the idea to advertise it with a new Anglo-American satellite launched conveniently close to a TV station. This fairly tedious Hanna-Barbera style plot comprises the majority of the film. Much more interesting ideas are simply discarded presumably to appeal to the middle school market. In an early scene, there is a shot of a Morris Minor lowlight.

Silliness abounds in this comic affront to British advertising. Beckwith, an ad executive, enlists the services of wacky dentists, Monkhouse and Stevens, to revive the sagging sales of a toothpaste. They invent a new wonder toothpaste and their nutty attempts at promoting the product comprise the rest of the film. Not better -or worse- than the average 50s/60s comedies. Although I expected Norman Wisdom coming in and shout "Mr Grimsdale!!!!"

Is one of the more memorable throw-away lines in this follow-up to DENTIST IN THE CHAIR. Squeezing some fun out of toothpaste sums up both plot and the general level of humour. Has a more professional look than its predecessor and Bob Monkhouse seems more at home, but the set-pieces such as the disastrous attempt to make a commercial go for nothing. With the always reliable Eric Barker in a dual role, Kenneth Connor with his impersonations and funny voices and Shirley Eaton providing the glamour it's less painful than it might have been. Includes a glimpse at the then popular quiz show Take Your Pick with Michael Miles, which I find infinitely funnier than many comedies of the day.

Intermitently funny, but made in 1961, with an eye for inclusion in the then unformed, and as then, unreleased, as yet, uninvented, DVD of the future film MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL in the year of our Lord, 2001 AD. I'd say the wait was worth it...

I do vaguely remember actually paying to see this dross at the ABC Golders Green back in 1961.I want my money back.I saw it again last week and i have to say that it must be one of the unfunniestfilms produced in the 1960s by the British cinema and that takes in a lot of territory.The only decent actor in this was Kenneth Connor.Charlie Hawtry is totally wasted.As for Bob Monkhouse,did he really think that any of this was funny .At the time this was made he was riding the crest of his first wave of TV popularity.British film producers were in the initial stages of transferring TV hits to films.From this film there is a natural progression through to "On the Buses".All i can say is that if you want to watch a film which is 100% genuinely unfunny thane you must watch this
