Yes indeed. Teddy Joyce's band is featured throughout the picture.

@ChrisAlbertson This was not the first British film to feature color sequences. The earliest British film with color was Elstree Calling made in 1930.

Wonderful clip. This was the first British full-length film to feature color (Dufaycolor, an extinct process) but only in two sequences, including a production number starring singer Alberta Hunter. I included a fairly fuzzy copy of it in "My Castle's Rockin'," a documentary of Alberta's life, which I wrote a few years back. Wish we had that clip in the same quality as the present one. Thanks for posting this.

That was fantastic! I know The great UK band leader Ambrose made films, would be nice to see some of these!

Watched a not-very-good (faces bleached out much of the time) DVD of this last night. As has been remarked elsewhere, it's hardly a Hay comedy film. However it is a wonderful record of inter-war, Edwardian and perhaps even late Victorian music hall and variety stars.
