Almost a Honeymoon is a 1938 British comedy film directed by Norman Lee and starring Tommy Trinder, Linden Travers and Edmund Breon.[1] It was based on the 1930 play Almost a Honeymoon by Walter Ellis, previously filmed in 1930.[2] Its plot is about a young man who urgently needs to find a wife so that he can get a lucrative job in the colonial service, and sets out to persuade a woman to marry him.
It was shot at the Welwyn Studios of Associated British outside London. The film's sets were designed by the art director Duncan Sutherland.
Allmovie wrote, "nothing really happens (this is a 1938 film), but you can't censor the gleam in the supporting characters' eyes."[3]
