Trouble In Store (1953) Stockroom clerk Norman Wisdom creates havoc in the department store, smashing crockery in a display window, setting himself on fire at a company banquet, singing two sentimental melodies, foiling a robbery and getting the girl. There is a prolonged chase on roller skates, and bicycles are crushed by large trucks. Apparently they thought that simply having him do something stupid and then riotously laugh about it would be funny enough. I don't think he had hit his stride yet. 6/10
