"What do they want oats for? Why can't they eat grass?"
2 November 2019
Despite the usual blackmail and violent death, this is a remarkably cheerful Edgar Wallace adaptation - brightly lit, much of it shot on location in the sunshine and played for laughs - rather than more ghoulish, gothic outings like 'The Terror' and 'The Case of the Frightened Lady' that immediately preceded and followed it.

The generally genial, light-hearted tone of the piece is further enhanced by a brief appearance - easily spotted and with a couple of lines - by a relatively young Terry-Thomas looking (and sounding) exactly as he did twenty years later.
