It's All Over Town is a 1964 British musical film starring Frankie Vaughan.[1] It was directed by Douglas Hickox who said they shot it in 15 days without sound and the "script consisted of two tiny typewritten pages, badly typewritten at that."[2] The film features Lance Percival as a daydreaming stage technician and Willie Rushton as his friend, and includes songs performed by the Springfields, Clodagh Rodgers, the Bachelors, Acker Bilk and the Hollies, as well as Frankie Vaughan.[3]
