When Edgar Lustgarten remarked that Brighton was a town famous for gay diversions. I thought more than you know mate!
Derrick Sherwin plays Simon the oldest looking college student in town. He is the only son of a wealthy tycoon. Simon has just been thrown out of university for getting involved in a drunken brawl over a woman.
Alone in his mansion with just the butler. His parents away on a business trip to New York. He goes on a night out, telling the butler that he will be on the lookout for a curvy foreign sounding woman and finds Yvonne, a young French woman.
Later, on a dirty weekend to Brighton with Yvonne. Simon encounters a private detective who bursts into the hotel room. He represents Yvonne's husband and demands blackmail money of £5000.
Maybe at this stage, an older more mature person might have smelled a rat and thought this was a set up. Simon though is an immature spoiled brat so he goes around to raise the money.
Simon ends up in court for murdering the private detective and his fate looks doomed until a surprise witness turns up.
The ending was obviously inspired by Perry Mason. However given Simon's fiance had just broken up with him. he was rich, young, free and single.
I did wonder why Simon would give a fig as to whether he was caught in a room with a married floozy he had picked up.
