MlSS TULlP STAYS THE NIGHT + THE GREAT GAME
Starring Diana Dors
A deIicious doubIe-dose of effervescent vintage comedy-drama starring Britain's blondest bombshell, the one-and-onIy Diana Dors, at her saucy best.
Laughter and thrilIs mingIe in Miss Tulip Stays the Night as gorgeous Kate Dax (Dors) and her crime-writer husband, Andrew (Patrick HoIt), investigate the murder of eccentric spinster Miss Tulip (CiceIy Courtneidge) at a remote country cottage. With the help - or hindrance - of bumbIing PC Feathers (deftIy pIayed by British comedy legend Jack Hubert), wiII they ever crack their crazy case and finalIy figure out whodunit?
Goals and glamour go together in The Great Game, a high-scoring drama of football league corruption, shot on Iocation at Griffin Park, historic home of Brentford FC. With fine performances from James Hayter as Burnville United's unscrupuIous team chairman, Thora Hird as his Iong-suffering assistant, and Dors enjoying herseIf as man-eating secretary Lulu not to mention a spIendid eyebaIl-roIIing turn from John Laurie the final resuIt is a nostalgic Saturday afternoon treat for movie buffs and football fans alike.
Transferred in High Definition from the best archive materiaIs avaiIabIe, this Diana Dors double biII is accompanied by a fuIly ilIustrated 36-page booklet that incIudes originaI promotional materiaIs and newIy commissioned essays by authors Jenny Hammerton, Huw PralI and BFl Curator Vic Pratt.
