Glynis Johns submits meekly to prison even though shes been framed.She is accused of having falsely claimed for a stolen cigarette case.The fact that she had not been to the pawn shop and therefore couldn't have been recognised by the broker has escaped the attention of her,her lawyer,the police and the court.She is met by a glamorous Diana Dors who is doing 2 years.Everyone else seems to have no makeup except Dors.Their progress is charted through prison to open prison.there are many humorous interludes which jars with the prison scenes.its as if its a bit of a lark going to prison.There is the obligatory happy ending when John Gregson decides to chuck his good job in Rhodesia and come back to marry Glynis.Compare this film with for example "Yield To the Night" ,a far superior film starring Dors as a Ruth Ellis type of character.In that film she has no make up and is far better in the acting stakes.
