Considered by many to be  Gracie’ best film. In this morale-boosting depression time movie, set in the industrial north of England, Gracie stars as a resourceful working class heroine, laid off from her job in a clothing mill. ‘Gracie Platt’ seeks work in the seaside resort of Blackpool. This gives her the opportunity both to fall into many misadventures and, of course, sing.

Songs:  Sing As We Go * Just a Catchy Little Tune * In My Little Bottom Draw * Love, Wonderful Love
