Press for Time is a 1966 British comedy film directed by Robert Asher and starring Norman Wisdom.
During his time in Tinmouth, the well-meaning Norman gets himself into all sorts of trouble whilst reporting, such as starting an argument at a council meeting which develops into an all-out fight between members.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Relentlessly dispiriting Norman Wisdom comedy featuring the usual round of crude slapstick as the little man with the big heart pits himself against the rest of the world and wreaks havoc in his every endeavour with only a single dogged heroine to stand loyally by his side.
Every situation is milked for all it has and more (Norman can hardly enter a public lavatory without emerging from the wrong side), and Wisdom duly takes his customary plunge into pathos by unwittingly delivering a plea for good-natured reason in front of his stunned tormentors.
Wisdom's comedies are evidently designed to provide inoffensive fun and games for all and sundry; but even his admirers may find his impersonations (in sepia-tinted flashback) of a screaming suffragette and a stumbling octogenarian Prime Minister a trifle embarrassing.
