Mister Ten Per Cent is a British comedy film from 1967, directed by Peter Graham Scott and starring Charlie Drake, Derek Nimmo, and Wanda Ventham. The movie follows the misadventures of George Binding (Drake), a small-time agent who dreams of hitting it big in the entertainment industry. George is known in the business as "Mister Ten Per Cent" due to his tendency to overcharge his clients and take a large cut of their earnings. However, despite his flashy clothes and big talk, he has yet to land a major deal.

When he comes across the talented but struggling singer Carol (Ventham), George sees an opportunity to make a name for himself and finally hit the big time. He sets out to manage her career, but he soon finds himself in over his head.

As George tries to promote Carol, he finds himself clashing with her overprotective mother (played by Patricia Hayes), navigating the egos of other agents and producers, and facing unexpected setbacks and mishaps. His attempts to secure a record deal for Carol are repeatedly sabotaged, and he is forced to resort to desperate measures to keep his dreams alive.

Throughout the film, George is aided (and often hindered) by his bumbling assistant, Freddie (Nimmo), and the pair gets into several comical situations as they struggle to keep up with the fast-paced world of show business.

Despite the many obstacles in his way, George never loses his determination and charm. He continues to pursue his dream of becoming a successful agent, even in the face of failure and disappointment.

The film features several musical numbers, many of which are performed by Ventham. The songs range from upbeat, catchy pop numbers to soulful ballads, and they add to the overall fun and upbeat feel of the movie.

Overall, Mister Ten Per Cent is a lighthearted and entertaining comedy that offers a glimpse into the world of show business in the swinging 60s. With its catchy music, colorful characters, and comedic hijinks, it's a film that's sure to put a smile on your face.
