Please Turn Over is a 1959 film starring Ted Ray, Jean Kent, Leslie Phillips, Joan Sims, Julia Lockwood, Tim Seely, and Guest Star Charles Hawtrey. Despite being produced and directed by Peter Rogers and Gerald Thomas, and having a few of the films' stars, this film was not part of the Carry On... Series.Young Jo Halliday (Lockwood) feels unfulfilled living at home with her officious father Edward (Ray), ditzy mother Janet (Kent), and fitness-obsessed aunt Gladys Worth (June Jago), and their home is frequently visited by their maid, Beryl (Sims).Due to this, Jo writes a book, Naked Revolt, about Blanche Gaunt (also Lockwood) who discovers the truth about everyone in her life. Her father, Roger (also Ray), is having an affair with his secretary, Stella Hopkins (Dilys Laye), and takes her to an expensive jeweller (Hawtrey); her mother, Rita (also Kent) is having an affair with "Uncle" Willie (Lionel Jeffries); and her Aunt Una (also Jago) is pining over Dr. Adam Gay (Phillips).Jo leaves town for London with a playwright, Robert Hughes (Seely), who wants to turn Naked Revolt into a play, Decay, just as people who read the book mistake the fiction within for reality. Hilarity Ensues as Edward is found under suspicion of embezzlement, Janet is accused of having an affair with driving instructor Ian Howard (also Jeffries), and Dr. Henry Manners (also Phillips) is now seen as a womanizing playboy. | |

Shout-Out | |
Please Turn Over / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Dr. Gay in Naked Revolt treats a patient called "Eve", making them Adam and Eve. When accusing Edward of sleeping with Miss Jones, Janet remarks she's been married to him for nineteen years, which is, as she puts it, "nearly three times The Seven Year Itch". When Gladys asks Edward and Janet if they've read Naked Revolt, Edward sarcastically responds that they've been playing Happy Families instead. When Dr. Manners demands a national apology in the national press for the depiction of his counterpart, Dr. Adam Gay, in Naked Revolt, Edward asks if he'd prefer four minutes on ITV of him licking his boots. In London, theatres show Flora Robson and Beatrix Lehmann starring in The Aspern Papers and Elizabeth Seal and Keith Mitchell starring in Irma la Douce. | |

In Naked Revolt, when the barman asks Roger, "Bitter?", meaning if he'd like to drink some, Roger replies that he is bitter. Also, in Naked Revolt, when Madeline tells a drunken Roger that Blanche is running away, he wonders if she has enough money to. | |
