[1] Herbert Harris is a poor traveling salesman who is forced off the bus at a remote Italian village because he has no more money for the fare.

Antonio is a wealthy businessman in London who, in accordance with his father's wish, has decided to marry a woman from his ancestral village.

[2] The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "The promising comedy idea degenerates into predictable farce of the hit-and-miss kind – with the accent on the comely misses.

Yet for all its lack of discipline and indeed comic skill, the film exercises a kind of cheerful charm which at least makes a pleasant change from the ruthless knowingness of so much contemporary British screen comedy.
