Doctor in Clover
Doctor in Clover (U.S. title: Carnaby, M.D.) is a 1966 British comedy film directed by Ralph Thomas and starring Leslie Phillips, James Robertson Justice, Shirley Anne Field, John Fraser, Joan Sims, and Arthur Haynes. The film is based on the 1960 novel of the same title by Richard Gordon. It is the sixth of the seven films in the Doctor series.
British singer Kiki Dee sang the film's title track.
The film is based at the (fictitious) St Swithin's Hospital, where Dr Gaston Grimsdyke, an accident-prone doctor and cad, is more interested in the nurses than the patients.
Having been sacked from his job as a medical officer at a men's prison for misbehaviour with the Governor's daughter, Grimsdyke is taken on by his old medical tutor Sir Lancelot Spratt, who is determined to make him a successful surgeon.
Grimsdyke discovers that a plum senior medical post is shortly to become vacant, and starts scheming to be considered, even after his cousin Miles tells him that he has already been unofficially offered the job.
Spratt and the newly-appointed hospital matron clash, leading Spratt to order Grimsdyke to romance her and 'soften her up'. But she misinterprets his 'anonymous' overtures, and comes to believe that Spratt is her secret admirer, leading to various complications.
Grimsdyke has already fallen in love with the much younger physiotherapist Jeanine, but she considers him to be too old for her. Grimsdyke tries various methods to make himself look younger and more appealing to Jeanine, but without success. Eventually, he declares his love to her, but she replies that he is very sweet but she has just become engaged to be married to Lambert Symington, whom Grimsdyke had tried to convince that she had no feelings for him.
A 'rejuvenation serum', which Grimsdyke had intended for himself, is accidentally injected into Sir Lancelot. Then Spratt encourages Grimsdyke to release an 'experimental' mood-enhancing gas at a hospital dance they will be attending. The combination of the two substances causes Spratt to run amok at the party and he ends up romancing the matron. But next day, she tells him she is married to her career and must disappoint him, and she resigns to take up a post elsewhere.
