You're Only Young Twice is a 1952 British second feature ('B')[1] comedy film directed by Terry Bishop and starring Duncan Macrae, Joseph Tomelty, Patrick Barr, Charles Hawtrey and Diane Hart.

A young woman visiting a Scottish university in search of her uncle, who is in hiding from the authorities, is mistaken for the principal's secretary, so she pursues the impersonation.

The total impression is mainly one of great noise and confusion, though one can see what the makers were aiming at: an irresponsible, lunatic kind of entertainment, perhaps a Scots equivalent of Pierre Prevert.

"[8] The Radio Times has described it as a "theatrical comedy," which was "shakily brought to the screen ... the story involves mistaken identity, Celtic poetry, horse racing and the rigging of Rectorial elections.
