Anthony Kemp is "Tony", a lad with a fairly vivid imagination whose tall tales have caused him to fall foul of the local police once or twice in the past. His father is the Lord Mayor, and whilst rehearsing for an impending visit from none-other than the Prime Minister, he happens upon a plot to kidnap the VIP. Naturally, nobody takes him seriously but can he thwart the plan with the aid of just two of his school friends "Mary" (Mary Burleigh) and "Martin" (Martin Beaumont) and save the day? Well, what do you think? It's quite an engaging little Children's Film Foundation crime caper, with decent efforts from the duplicitous journalist "Stella" (Judy Cornwell) and long suffering police inspector "Blake" (Alfred Bell). Most of these films work well enough as they offered simple stories made for kids featuring kids in the leading roles - and this one passes an hour quite effortlessly.
