This threadbare "Carry On" comedy is set in the 18th century and concerns a fellow with a dual identity: by day, he's the Reverend Flasher; after dusk, he moonlights as the treacherous highwayman Dick Turpin. (Both are played by Sidney James). Dogooders Captain Desmond Fancey (Kenneth Williams) and Sgt. Jock Strapp (Jack Douglas) search for this elusive scoundrel who is robbing travelers every evening. Adding fool to the fire is Mme. Desiree (Joan Sims) and her entourage of doxies. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The Cat Gang is a group of precocious pre-teen British kids. They have a habit of hanging around a grown-up customs official who wishes that they'd beat it. But the Gang comes in handy when a smuggling gang arrives on the scene. Off and on the screen in 50 minutes, The Cat Gang seems predestined for weekend TV showings. Of interest is the presence in the cast of future British leading-lady Francesca Annis (Dune, Lillie etc.), making her film debut as one of the older children. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
