Nothing Barred is a 1961 British comedy film directed by Darcy Conyers and starring Brian Rix, Leo Franklyn and Naunton Wayne.[2]

Plot

Penniless Lord Whitebait (Naunton Wayne) plans to save his dwindling fortunes by opening his stately home Whitebait Manor, to the public. But public interest proves minimal, and with rapidly mounting debts and the spiralling costs of his daughter’s upcoming wedding threatening to ruin him, Whitebait is forced to take desperate measures. He and his servant Spankforth (Charles Heslop) plot to stage the theft of a valuable painting from Whitebait Manor, and they are aided in their scheme by Wilfred Sapling (Brian Rix), a plumber.

Cast

Critical reception

TV Guide gave the film two out of four stars, and noted, "Another amusing farce by the Rix-Conyers team."[3]
