Jumping for Joy is a 1956 British comedy film directed by John Paddy Carstairs and starring Frankie Howerd, Stanley Holloway, Joan Hickson and Lionel Jeffries. A man buys a greyhound and enters it in a major race, but gets mixed up with criminals who want to fix the race by doping dogs.[1]
Halliwell's Film and Video Guide 2000 describes the film as a "totally predictable star comedy which needs livening up"[2] and the Time Out Film Guide 2009 describes the film as "lame".[3]
