Turned out nice again...
One of George's better films, it has a coherent, straightforward story and he isn't as downtrodden and gormless as he is in some of his films. George's bike, the Shuttleworth Snap, is a design icon and it's a real pity he couldn't have won the TT on it. The film still makes my grandchildren laugh and it contains one of my all time favourite Formby songs - "In my little Wigan garden". Good romantic support from Florence Desmond, my only disappointment was that I would have liked to have seen a few more Isle of Man locations.

Champion
I highly recommend this George Formby classic.

A brilliant story of an honest simpleton from Lancashire who wants to ride his bike in the famous TT races on the Isle of Man. He beats some cheating rivals and wins the girl.

Clean comedy for all the family to enjoy and some nice songs too. Probably his best film, though maybe not as popular as "Let George Do It". The transfer to DVD is also of good quality for such an old movie. I experienced none of the reported problems with audio-video synchronization.

GREAT RE-ISSUE, WELL RESTORED ONTO DVD

CLEAR PICTURE AND SOUND (QUITE LOUD AT TIMES DURING THE RACING SEQUENCES!)

LIKED THE ORIGINAL BRITISH BOARD OF FILM CENSORS TITLE AT THE BEGINNING!

Classic George
Perhaps George's best film, certainly his most entertaining. Most of the laughs are, as you'd expect, from the unintentional. George is, as ever, the meek Lancastrian hero, and there's the obligatory cad and sweet girl characters. One thing that had me in stitches was the 'special effects' of George motoring over a cliff top and flipping himself back to the top - the film jumps into a short animated stickman routine. Maybe I'm being harsh here, because much of the humour is genuine and there are some real characters in it, and the unintentionally funny bits are laughing-at, rather than laughing-with. But whichever way you look at it, it's still a good jape and very entertaining.
