The Fast Lady - 1962 - Complete 

Theres nothing better than sitting down and watching a good old British comedy film, a real feel good, fun film. 😁👍

The house & garden shots were at my grandparents home, Huntercombe in Taplow, happy childhood memories there, lovely to see it again, great for hide & seek. You can see a ladies dressing table mirror in some shots, my mother still has it 😁.

I'll watch this film over and over again for the country lanes, the bicycles, the street scenes, the motor cars, the fashions, the houses, gardens and, of course, the simply adorable JULIE CHRISTIE!

Rest in Peace Leslie Philips, God bless thank you for your wonderful entertainment over the years, may the angels fly with you.

Stanley Baxter, a wonderful entertainer that I grew up with. Nobody holds a candle to this man. Wonderful film. Thanks x

Ah the glorious simple innocence of classic British comedies with a whopping fine cast of laughter-makers. Enjoyed it on its first release in 1962 and still good today !

Stanley Baxter, Leslie Phillips, James Robertson Justice - all topped-off with Julie Christie, what a line-up ! I'm in 'Old film' heaven !

Very good entertaining film, no swearing which makes it all the better. I wish modern films were made like that.

Stanley Baxter is my favourite Scotsman. 96, and still going strong. We need many more like him.

... for those who think the sparsely parked cars and kids playing in the road were staged just for the film, you'd be wrong!.. in the late fifties, early sixties, I can remember their only being a couple of parked cars down my road in London... ahh, great times! 😀... it's bumper to bumper now ... ☹

A good old-fashioned fun-filled British film. It was great to see the cameo appearances by a string of comic greats.

An absolute classic, they knew how to make comedies back in those days!;)

The movies from the UK from about 1935 to about 1975 are my favorites especially the comedies!! THANK YOU!!!!

This was one of the funnier British comedies - a lot of the old comedy stalwarts - Robertson-Justice, Phillips, Baxter, Harrison and a few comedy cameos too! A lovely film, thanks for uploading.

Absolute pleasure to watch this old British Classic. Stanley Baxter one of the Worlds greatest actors that ever graced the screen. Och Aye

Rest in peace Leslie Phillips legends never die

This is one of the best films, ever. I saw it in a cinema in Rotherham when it was first released on a rainy afternoon when I was 9 or 10, and the humour does not date in the slightest. OK, we have scenes with many pre-war cars, which were still widespread in the early sixties, and roads are of the period, but the characters still exist in the forms presented. Who would be a better car salesman than Leslie Phillips in any era? Who has ever done a dim Scot better than Stanley Baxter? Who has ever been more alluring than Julie Christie, and was there ever a more fearsome potential father-in-law as James Robertson Justice? But the real star is the beautiful car. What an absolute attention-seeker she is. Lovely.

Thank you for this what a great British film yes Hollywood did film making bigger but you can't beat a good old British film

That was fantastic. a classic with some of the best comedy actors Britain has seen. Thank you for uploading

A lovely little comedy which I saw with my grandmother when I was 10. Thank you for uploading it.

I don't know why this came up in my recommendations but I'm glad it did! Nice cheery films from more innocent times just what we need during this virus epidemic.

Beautiful actors and beautiful cars. It made my day. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, that was surprisingly great! Opening credits almost made me bail but holy smoke, laughed my head off! Buncha great classic British actors, seen but forget their names, but real talent. And a v. young Julie Christie lookin' gorgeous.

cameo appearances of Dick Emery, car sales man. Bernard Cribbins, man on stretcher, Clive Dunn, man jumping out of the window. Thanks for the upload.. Always a fan of these British films I grew up with. And always a fan of Leslie Philips.

THANK YOU!!!!! "More please" any or all that you can get hold of, I think British comedy is great.

A pure joy to view in this age of COVID 19. Seems UK life in the early 1960's was fun, fun, fun! With movies like this, incredible popular music, and pirate radio stations blasting out the sounds the people were entertained.

Another top movie from Ken Annakin. There’s lots to delight in this comedy romance, but Leslie Phillips steals the show at 3.14 minutes in as he looks lovingly at his own reflection & says “Ooh, you sexy beast!” And so a legend was born!

Anyone else remember the days of waiting for the TV to warm up before it started working?

Saw this with my parents and sister in the 1960s Bangalore. Gave me a sense of style.

absolutely Love Leslie Phillips he was a Legend ❤ and James Robertson Justice thanks for posting

Nice to see so many vintage stars in cameo rolls. A nice quick flash from Frankie Howard. Not seen this film before, thanks for the up load.

I was working on a contract next to Beaconsfield Film Studio's, we could see over the wall the filming of this movie, I said to another lad name Billy, let's go over and see what is going on, he was scared , I said just walk around as if we are working there, as we went through some trees, the first person I saw was James R Justice sitting in a deck chair with a large bunch of grapes on the table, I put on my best posh voice and said to him " good morning Mr Justice Sir, those grapes look rather nice, I only have grapes when I am ill, and I feel rather unwell now " he laughed and gave me some grapes. they were actually filming the little old lady on the crossing; she had a dog lead with no dog on the end. went over a few times after that.

As of April 2020, The Old Man (Father: James Robertson Justice) died in 1975 at 68, but the couple are both still living, her (Julie Christie: Claire) 80 and him (Murdoch: Stanley Baxter) a mere 94 years young... Even Freddie (Leslie Phillips) is still with us at 96.

FANTASTIC loved it to pieces. Thank you

A British Comedy Classic! Many thanks. Happy Christmas All. 🎅

The legend that is Leslie Phillips superb in comedy films of this type but also a brilliant serious film actor a national treasure!

What a lovely comedy movie! I love it. :)

Brilliant , a wonderful film . It never fails to make me laugh .

As a fellow Scot I laugh out loud at Murdoch watching TV in the dark to save electricity. It's the utterly ridiculous programme 'The White Heather Club' and Murdoch indignantly defends it to Freddie Fox "It's the best programme on English television!". A lovely film with a lovely cast. Nice to think Julie and Stanley are still with us.

Great humour, great artists; thanks a million !

Stanley Baxter still going strong at 97!

RIP Leslie Phillips - you've given a lot of pleasure in your long life.

the VIP'S, Crooks anonomous, the fast lady, and father came too all starring Leslie, Stanley and James ! amazing that the land lady Kathleen harrison, 104, Leslie 98 RIP, and Stanley 98 still here !

Thank you so much for uploading this. It was absolutely delightful!

R.I,P. Leslie, another childhood favourite taken away.

That 3.5 Bentley was priced about right for the early sixties at 475 quid. You couldn't given 'em away then. They came up in local classified ads from time to time, plus the back pages of 'Motor Sport' monthly magazine. The old cronk was 40-years old and there was no such thing as classic car movement with fancy prices in those days. The cost of a new Mini was about 500 quid by comparison. Fast forward to 2020 and a similar 3.5 Bentley from the mid-1920's would likely garner 350-450,000 quid at auction and the actual Fast Lady from the movie might sell at auction for 1 million quid plus. The really desirable sporting Bentleys from this era are the 4.5, 4.5 supercharged and 8-litre variants. A 4.5 litre supercharged model with history is going to make millions at auction. In 1973 I was offered the ex-Jim Clark 1959 Aston Martin DBR1 Border Riviers sports-racer for 25,000 quid. Today that car (one of 5) would garner 40 million quid plus. I didn't buy it.

Great movie acting was great too. Made the year I was born...............The country side and villages were so beautiful. Thanks 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤪

Seen this before . what a blast from the past . cheers

I laughed my heart out! Thanks for sharing!

Fabulous film....the great Leslie Philips, Stanley Baxter and the fabulous Julie Christie x

Watched this 3 times. Love England at this time. So unique.

Thank you for the upload.. Just what we needed to take our mind's off of the crazy times we live in today......

I certainly love this picture ! So funny, so sweet ! And all those wonderful english cars ! Thanks a lot for posting, I already saw it three times...

This is a little known classic! Great stuff!

Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing this old English comedy. Best regards, luck and health.

A British classic remember going to see this at the Regal Cinema in Bridlington and fell in love with the Rolls Royce Silver Cloud ,just love the driving lesson scenes. (GREAT STUFF).

Gosh!.... I remember the council estate I came from (late 50's early 60's)... it looked exactly like the one here. All the houses were immaculately turned out and everyone took pride in their gardens.....I wouldn't dare go near the same place these days.

She was gorgeous with a voice to melt ice... and the chemistry between the cast was beautiful ... Such a lovely couple...

All star cast movie, brilliant and very watchable over and over again

One of the funniest films, thanks for the upload :)

Absolutely lovely film...

Great fun. The chase sequence is full of laughs. Perfect pick me up after a bad day at the home office. 😎😷♥️

Delightfully entertaining, very 'English' comedy with a long list of much loved actors of long ago when life was simpler and more 'innocent'. Thank you!

My favourite film, thanks for sharing it.

Complete awesomeness on four vintage british wheels!!

My parents where Irish and things weren’t always favourable for them during the 50s in England, but my Father was a skilled steel erector and bought a house in Orpington Gardens in Edmonton in 1952 and had paid for it by 1956. It cost 2572.00 Pounds. I came along in 1960. My childhood was idyllic. I grew up seeing these movies at the cinema. I miss that England and our life as it was then. I miss it so much it hurts. The world has gone to shit. The dollar rules and everyone else can get fucked.

An excellent film. Thanks. Yesterday I saw Leslie Philips as a serious policeman in The Limping Man (1953) ; also on RU-vid.

2:14 Ann Beach I've just finished binge watching 'Fresh Fields' a wonderful comedy sitcom with Ann featured as "it's only me, Sonia"! Sadly she died in 2017, aged 78. Thanks for sharing this!

WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 From a mad keen 76yo Aussie fan. Totally agre with Pykkervots & Mortuary Artist.

Best of British comedy. The triumbvant of Baxter,Phillips & Robertson -justice. Watch Very important person, crooks anonymous and father came too - superb

It's great to see the movie trailer after the film, a great bonus. Thanks for posting this film. 👍🏼

I have had a lifetime crush on Leslie Philips his voice, manner the ultimate loveable scoundrel th very best of the old school English gentlemen who unfortunately dont exist any more (my father was one)Enjoyable film really thanks for loading can you put Leslie philips ones up.

This is one of my all time favorite movies! Thank you 😆

Happy days. Loved this movie again many years later.........1962 . I was 17.

One of my all time favourite films of all time, thank you for uploading. My mum let me stay up late to see the end of this when I was a schoolboy :)

Classic B Movie great cast many thanks for the uploading.

Some beautiful cars in this movie.

Classic period of British Cinema, when you throw in films with Peter Sellers, Terry Thomas Norman Wisdom and Michael Caine.

Some really hilarious moments saved the day.

Superb with a cast that is Who's Who of British Actors. Thank you for posting.

Utterly bloody daft but utterly bloody great! Lots of well-loved faces in extremely short parts because they are well-loved and obviously enjoy being utterly bloody daft!

gets better as it goes along... nicely

I truly enjoyed this movie. Thanks so much for sharing

"I doubt if even a woman could drive worse" James Robertson Justice is hilarious

how wonderful - british humor - for ever

Great fun watching out for all the stalwarts of British film from the period.

v .2 Another nice old comedy. I just watched A Weekend With Lulu last night with Leslie Phillips, but he was in different character. Great to see Kathleen Harrison.

The most wonderful film ever, so simple but glorious to watch, it gives you a warm, homely glow all over. Suburbia in all it's suburban-ness!!!!! I think it was filmed in Iver Heath, such a lovely street. Google maps. The wonders of technology. I found the exact house where Murdoch lived!!!!!

Great timeless models 👍. Oh and the cast were great too 😜

Great, classic British comedy film at its British best, with most of the old 50's and 60's comic stars. Best of all, not an American to be seen!! OK, not very PC, but no foul language. How times have changed!

Leslie Phillips 95, Stanley Baxter 93 & Julie Christie 79, AMAZING !!

Leslie Phillips looked so much like my father, it always made me and my brother laugh when we saw him on TV. Since we lost our dad (Aug '18), seeing him on screen has a special poignancy.

What a gem! Thanks for uploading. Great to see so many old cars and old stars! I love the early sixties suits too - so well cut. How could any man resist Julie Christie with James Robertson Justice for a father in law...and I'm sure that was the same driving examiner that I had!

Great movie, thanks! Reminded me a lot of the humorous "Those Magnificent Men..." - same sort of repartee and wacky slap-stick. Thoroughly enjoyed it - and the cars, va-va-va-vooooom!

I got to fall in love with Julie Christie all over again. Thanks so much.

Leslie Phillips was a reincarnation of Terry Thomas really Both utter cads and bounders! Its a shame we don't see more of Stanley Baxter though.

I absolutely love these vintage British comedies. They're better than anything Hollywood produced at the time.

Fun fun fun!!! Thanks for sharing

A delightful film to watch - thank you.

Leslie Phillips great in the carry ons but glad he turned his acting skills to other comedy and drama. In an interview he did, I remember feeling a bit surprised when he ridiculed his supposedly known catch phrase 'doing dong' I think it suits him down to the ground. He is still around at 97. Like the street scenes where the kids are playing in the street, as we did when we were kids in the 60s hardly any cars then and we used congregate in the road outside our homes on our bikes, out all day and no internet. Simple happy ' respecting your elders and each other more'
