Short slapstick comedy film made c.1978, completely without words.
Eric Sykes played a building worker who is taking a large, long plank of wood to his construction site when, via a series of comic mishaps, he loses it and it goes on to cause havoc after being caught up in traffic.
It has a cameo appearance by racing driver James Hunt as a lorry driver, and the late great Jimmie Edwards as a bewhiskered bicycle cop. It may also have featured Carry On star Charles Hawtrey.
Made for a younger audience, it went on to be enjoyed by all ages, and was such a hit with viewers it was repeated about 18 months later.
