Spending much of his time gambling, drinking, and arranging dubious set-ups with his best friend Steve, he’s aghast to find a Chief Inspector from the Metropolitan Police at his penthouse flat door one afternoon, enquiring as to his whereabouts some five years previously.

Love these 70's sex comedies and as many reviewers have said I got this to complete my Mary Millington film collection. The film is infused with an offbeat, unconventional humour, presenting a quirky storyline involving astrology, law, robbery and murder. By joining TV Guide, you agree to our Terms of Use and acknowledge the data practices in our Privacy Policy. The film was not part of the Confessions series of films from Columbia Pictures that began with Confessions of a Window Cleaner (1974), but it was hoped that it would benefit commercially from the similarity of title.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. His glamorous conquests include a high society debutante (sex superstar Mary Millington) and a busty beauty queen (real-life Miss Bournemouth Rosemary England), but he soon finds himself on the wrong side of the law and not even his own horoscope can predict the future! Featuring a supporting cast of classic British actors including Bernie Winters, Anthony Booth, Kenny Lynch and the legendary Diana Dors.First released at the Eros cinema on Piccadilly Circus in June 1979, this saucy sex comedy follows in the footsteps of Come Play With Me and The Playbirds and features a supporting cast of classic British actors. A raunchy mix of comedy and sex in the grand old 'saucy postcard' tradition sees Mary Millington as an heiress who has not yet found the right man for her, even though she has tried countless thousands. Meanwhile, Steve has set David up with Millie, a posh girl about town, and arranged an underground gambling syndicate. Strangely, my first review of this film was deleted soon after it was posted so this is my second attempt. Anyway, the film concerns someone who is not a very nice person being pursued by a couple of London's finest, all the while having the ability to bed some of the sexiest dolly-birds of the time.

The film was financed by businessman David Sullivan to promote the career of Millington, who was his girlfriend at the time. His glamorous conquests include a high society debutante, (sex superstar Mary Millington); and a beauty queen, (‘Miss Bournemouth’ Rosemary England); but he soon finds himself on the wrong side of the law.Rosemary England as Miss Bournemouth, Pamela Healey as Miss Birmingham and Mary Millington are beautifully painted here by Tom Chantrell (tough job but someones got to do it).

The movie provides a nostalgic look back at the late 70s era, capturing the fashion, dialogue, and society of the time. Husband and wife acting team Alan Lake and Diana Dors sink to the lowest point of their respective careers in this tedious British sex comedy. The long, drawn-out plot fails to hold the attention and Lake's performance, as sex-obsessed astrologer David Galaxy, is annoying and virtually unwatchable, (why any woman would fall for his hackneyed chat-up lines is anyone's guess). You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.Stars: Mary Millington; Alan Lake; Glynn Edwards; Diana Dors; Bernie Winters; Anthony Booth; Kenny Lynch; Rosemary England; John Moulder-Brown; Alec Mango; Queenie Watts; Milton Reid; Sally Faulkner; Ballard Berkeley; Lindy Benson; and more. The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "With its barely identifiable semblance of plot, a level of comic invention exemplified by having the hero interrupt his love-making by breaking wind, and a dramatic context that amounts to little but the endless offering and pouring of drinks, this erotic 'thriller' proves squalidly unwatchable. He’s engaged in an affair with a female MP, has several girlfriends; plus other business interests including a beauty pageant (with perks, naturally!
