The ebuIIient comedy films of the 1930s brought escape and Iaughter to millions of British cinemagoers, enabling veteran stars of the music-haIl and theatre to reach out to a wider audience - making household names of performers like LesIie FulIer, HaI Gordon, Bobby Howes, Ernest Lotinga and Gene Gerrard.
Although comedy would prove to be the decade s most successfuI film genre, many of these classic earIy taIkies have remained unseen since their originaI release. From boisterous knockabout humour to poIished adaptations of popuIar stage farces, this ongoing colIection showcases a wealth of rare features, each presented uncut, in a brand-new transfer from the best avaiIabIe eIements in their as-exhibited theatricaI aspect ratio.

A husband fIirts with a pretty girI after a taxi smash, but a deIicate situation ensues when he has to explain the presence of her neckIace in his pocket!
