But this week I bet him to it. We were shopping in HMV for CD'S for my son when we came across The Whistle Blower for a great price of £5.99.

Advantages: Two charismatic leads
Disadvantages: Some might find genre dated

...), a woman who is a walking disaster, wreaking havoc wherever she goes.It appears to Bannister that Judy has devoted her life to harrassing and confusing him. In the course of just two days the usually quiet and unassuming Howard finds himself in the midst of the theft of some valauble jewels, a kidnapping plot, the theft of some secret papers from a government whistle blower and ends up being chased through the streets of San Francisco inn a stolen Beetle whilst dressed as a Chinese Mandarin.
