Synopsis

"Britain's master farceur is at it again. Set in a hospital, 'It Runs in the Family' contains the usual assortment of farcical nutcases running in and out of doors mistaking everybody for someone else, as Dr. Mortimore tries to fend off a paternity suit, an ex-wife, a punkish daughter and various other lunatics so that he may, at last, deliver the Ponsonby Lecture in an international conference."
