Something Always Happens is a 1934 British romantic comedy film directed by Michael Powell and starring Ian Hunter and Nancy O'Neil.

When an acquaintance mentions that he has a client who wants to purchase a 1934 Bentley, Peter sees an opportunity to make a commission and scours the streets.

Peter spends all night devising a plan to make petrol stations more attractive to customers by offering additional services, such as dining, dancing and even swimming pools.

Peter makes Blue Point a great success, much to the chagrin of Hatch, who had been hoping to buy the struggling company.

When Peter learns that a bypass is going to be built, he plans to buy sites for petrol stations along the route before Hatch hears about it.

After Peter receives the bad news, he sees Cynthia taking money from Hatch and concludes that she betrayed him.

He had to make about twenty films a year to fulfil his British quota and keep his Warner Brothers' Teddington Studios running.
