What happens

Twice Round the Daffodils is a 1962 British comedy film directed by Gerald Thomas and starring Juliet Mills, Donald Sinden, Donald Houston, Kenneth Williams, Ronald Lewis, Andrew Ray, Joan Sims and Jill Ireland. The film was adapted by Norman Hudis from the play Ring for Catty by Patrick Cargill and Jack Beale. Carry On Nurse (1959) was based on the same play. The cast and production team of Twice Round the Daffodils are similar to those of the Carry On films, but the film is not an official member of the Carry On series. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
