British director/producer John E. Blakeley specialized in low-budget comedies aimed at regional audiences. From 1938's Dodging the Dole onward, Blakeley's output was almost exclusively aimed at the Lancashire market. The director was most closely associated with music-hall comedian Frankie Randle, guiding the potty-mouthed funster through such ramshackle farces as Somewhere in England (1942), Somewhere in Camp (1943) and School for Randle (1947). John E. Blakeley and Frankie Randle both ended their film careers with 1953's It's a Grand Life.
