It’s a sixties style American movie about two widowed people, each with a large family, who fall in love and decide – after much indecision – to get married. Trying to blend the two families together (eighteen children in all, aged eighteen down to about two) produces significant difficulties.

There’s some humour, and some touching moments, with a fairly predictable resolution. Nothing too deep, so it makes a pleasant evening’s viewing for a couple or family, without any great mental strain.

I love this movie.. which I love anything with Lucille Ball in it so go figure!
