Wissenswertes
Based on the BBC Radio serial "Send For Paul Temple Again" (broadcast over September to November 1945) by Francis Durbridge, which was novelised by the author in 1948 and later remade for radio as "Paul Temple and the Alex Affair" (February to March 1968). This was the final BBC Radio Temple serial until Radio 4's run of remakes began in 2006, and saw the killer's name (minimally) changed from Rex to Alex.

Patzer
The literate Temples quote from Richard Lovelace's 1642 poem "To Althea, from Prison" ("Stone walls do not a prison make,/Nor iron bars a cage"). He is, however, believed to have written it whilst at Westminster's Gatehouse Prison, not Canterbury.

Zitate
Paul Temple: Gosh, I must get dressed. We shall be late for lunch!

7/10

Brisk British thriller,

First of four B films adapted from very popular radio programmes of the 40s and 50s Highly enjoyable for fans of old fashioned mysteries. Nice location work in Canterbury though matte shots from cars involving rolling scenery date it. Leads both good including Sheridan who would move onto A films including the wonderful "Genervive"
