Despite some controversy over the Internet, I think it's quite clear that THIS is the last Bulldog Drummond film with John Howard in the title role. How can I be sure? Because it's in THIS episode that Hugh and Phyllis FINALLY get married, which gives the film a satisfying ending (is this why Heather Angel seems to glow throughout?). This is also probably the most comedy-oriented of the Howard films, especially due to the character of the mayor / police chief of a French village who makes it his personal mission to get Hugh and his girl married at ANY cost; even the climactic chase on rooftops seems to be played more for laughs than for thrills. All in all, an OK finish to a likable, but never particularly distinguished, chapter of the Drummond series. ** out of 4.
