It seems someone suggested "Scotch On The Rocks" would have been the best title and I think I agree.
It's also amusing to note that, according to the trivia section, the director MacKendrick later came to a realization that the most "Scottish" character in the film was the puritan spoilsport Englishman Waggett and the islanders all behaved like Irishmen.
Whattan irreverently funny little picture nevertheless, unapologetically celebrating the drunkard's way of life.
