Featured review
Salute the Toff review
John Bentley (whom some of a certain age might remember as Meg Richardson's husband in TV soap Crossroads back in the '70s) plays the aristocratic sleuth in this low-budget offering - and very suave he is, too. He's searching for a missing businessman wanted for murder after a body is found in his flat, but finds that the story behind the murder isn't quite as straightforward as it first seemed. An ok time-filler that's hindered by its modest budget, and the fact that, despite the convoluted plot, the villain is fairly obvious early on. At least Wally Patch is on hand to keep things lively.
