You can tell from the first few bars of the theme tune that Ron Goodwin has been brought on board to score this, and together with George H. Brown (think Margaret Rutherford's "Miss Marple" series) sets us up for a jolly hour and a half. A cleaning lady (Peggy Mount) stumbles upon some sensitive commercial information which she innocently passes to "The Colonel" (Robert Morley) who buys some shares and makes a killing. They discover that what better a way to capitalise on their windfall than by getting a few other ladies who also clean up carelessly discarded paperwork together, and with a bit of discerning analysis, they are soon wheeling and dealing like experts so they can save their local street from demolition. It's a charming, comedic little story that works really well for about an hour; thereafter it drops off rather - too much script - and the women seem to end up as unscrupulous as those they are trying to protect their community from. Morley and Mount are great though.
