This channel will celebrate long unseen British movies that have slipped into obscurity, many of which have been unseen since their last showings on UK television in the 1980s or 90s.
In order to try and minimize possible copyright issues films will be removed after a few days, so please come back often to see what's new.
There will be no rips of commercially produced dvd's on this channel, as I have no wish to deprive the copyright holders of legitimate sales of issued titles, a vast number of which have now been made available since dvd releases started appearing about 15 years ago.
Some films appearing on this channel would classify as "orphan works" where the copyright holder is unknown, so these in particular are unlikely to ever be officially released.
Enjoy the films,and please keep commenting on them!

Brilliant actor very funny wee legend he his xxx
It's a pity that Debroy Somers is always cast in a particular way - there's alot of hot stuff there too and his work with the Savoy Havana Band breaks any mould of timidity.
A good one. Thanks. Sadly, the sound quality isn't all that great. I've never understood why British films have such poor sound work : the level for background noises and music is usually set quite high, while the levels for the necessary dialogue levels in speech are low and sound muddy; and in this one, the mastermind's portions are even lower. Rough going, but worth the effort on this one.
A glimpse at the bygone age of Edwardian farce.I could watch Edward Everett Horton anytime. Thanks for posting.
So the robbery at the start was a flashback?
Thanks, another Alastair Sim film ticked off the list
Very enjoyable - wrong back in the 1930s for Phyllis to be denied a credit - that said - if you know anything about 1930s music - the voice is unmistakable
Harry Bentley was a talented singer - who died far to young
Not sure if I watched this properly when originally shown as have rather vague memories - will have to give it a whirl, thanks...
Ellison the famous air pilot ?...😮 What now ? Sabotage for an Atlantic Airodrome ? You would think they were going to the moon.
I have just discovered the German version is available on OK RU. With Subtitles. Great to watch both.
Wow, thanks for this rarity. Great to see your putting these up again.
Why are man so gullible and women so devious and evil.
"George" Harker?!! Lummy.
Great quality. Thanks for posting.
That’s an abrupt change. Not for the better.
Takes me back to my childhood. Yes, I’m that old! Days long gone when British people were British, and proud of it, and life was totally different to the mayhem we have now. Wish I could go back!!
If kosher…… ist gud ya
LOLLLL❣️🤣🤣🤣
"as long as he's not one of those effeminate ninny's! That's the one thing I couldn't stand." Here! Here! 👌👍🏼👍🏼
Brilliant actor show more of his films Please
Excellent!
Very entertaining
All you have to say is Alister Simm and I'm hooked!
Three minutes and two ads already. I'm out of here. 👎
Another reliable Edgar Wallace mystery! Thanks!
Now this was a great movie! Thank you for posting it!
Why is Barry Mackay pretending to be the private secretary?
One of the absolutely cutest movies ever. I just plain loved it, from start to finish. 🙂
Thanks for sharing another rare treat! It's always a treat to see a "new" Gordon Harker movie.
The fetching blonde is a DISH 🙂
Confession... I LOVE the MAID 🙂
❤❤❤❤
Another for the queue! 😸😹🙀
Thought you would have seen this one already Robert!
@@eh44returns97 No, one which escaped my radar. More stuff coming my way than I will ever catch up with. Will have to have another meet-up, maybe on one of your lunch breaks...
@@robertsmith-qb2ke Wednesdays are usually good for me!
@@eh44returns97 Will bear that in mind... 🎞🎞🎞
Very good movie!
I was in a bad mood today. . . until I watched this movie. Thanks for posting!
Many thanks! Have been looking for this film for years.
That was a good movie, lol
Thanks for posting, hadn't seen this one before :) it is a bit of a slog before last 1/3rd, but it's necessary to set up the conclusion and worth watching some very good actors :)
Thank you for another wonderful classic!
It is really interesting sometimes to look at the life stories of these actors. Here are something I found out about some of this cast... Gordon Harker The chacter of John Harker in Dracular was based on his father Jane Carr was one of the first faces to be broadcast by the BBC. Her husband was a partner in Logie Baird Company Michael Shepley was also a reknown cricketeer Geraldine Fitzgerald Out-lived them all. She died in 2005 aged 91 Sebastian Shaw Was Luke Skywalker's father in the Return of the Jedi
Thank you for that info. Very interesting! You've certainly done your homework!
Geraldine Fitzgerald was also in an acclaimed NY production of "Long Day's Journey Into Night" with Robert Ryan. It was recorded by Caedmon LP's.
Geraldine was Oscar nominated for her role in Wuthering Heights
I'm sure the continuity announcer at the start of the film introduces Gordon Harker as George Harker. Whatever, it was an excellent movie short with the always dependable Gordon - or is it George???
Yes, the continuity announcer does refer to 'George' rather than 'Gordon'!
What a delight! A lovely complicated and surprisingly saucy plot, some excellent gags, and the amazing talent of Gordon Harker with his hilarious faux posh act. If he had been borne a generation later, he might have been a major sitcom or Ealing comedy star, but he seems largely forgotten now. And Jimmy (Sebastian Shaw) was of course Darth Vader after they took off his helmet!!
Too many commercials.
Baa-humbug
Thank you from Manhattan ©2024
Thank you, you never disappoint with your offerings. I could not stop from beginning to the end. I've read others thought this a bore with too much dialog, but I know what I like and I like this.
I notice that Al Bowley picked up a MACCAFERRI STYLE guitar, and played it straight , I would have liked to hear the whole tune especially Nat Gonella.
Wonderful to see this. I am a fan of Gordon Harker and I have several Gordon Harker DVDs. I did not know of this film.
