We're picking April up on the way....


Terry-Thomas is exasperated when Palfrey has seemingly forgotten their second tennis match and implores Palfey to hurry up as they are picking April up on the way - this despite the face that he only has a two seater sports car, the very reason he had used earlier in the film to lure April away from Henry!

Just saw the film last night and picked up on this too. However, when pressed, it is possible to haul three in a two seater. I used to do it pre-seat belt laws in my MGs. Once hauled four in my MGBGT...not recommended!

Very possibly this isn't a gaff but a one upmanship point, trying to lure the girl away therfore I only have a two seater. Not everything needs deep thought

If they had picked April up,having only two seats, Palfrey being the gentleman would have given up his seat to April and been left at the road side!Perfect planning by T-T.
