Synopsis: This British comedy based on The Twelve Chairs features George Formby as an impecunious young man who learns his aunt left him a fortune stuffed inside one of a set of dining room chairs which have since been sold at auction and he has to discover which one before a crooked solicitor beats him to it.

Purr Blur: Unable to pay his rent, George sneaks back into his room via the window. The next morning he is about to make his exit the same way when he spots his landlady chatting and flirting with a policeman while a cat feeds on something on the pavement nearby.

Final Mewsings: Cats will only keep their seats if bribed with food.
