Trollope!

Trollope! The actor playing the female impersonator is Arthur Howard, brother of Leslie Howard, with whom Rosamund John worked several times.

Love the actress playing Molly Wheeler. Her name is Brenda de Banzie, and she was famous for upstaging her costars...she successfully upstaged Charles Laughton in HOBSON'S CHOICE.

Their sister was the casting director Irene Howard!? Very dramatic family.

Now she's going from acting as defense counsel to acting as defense witness.
Legal soap opera.

Dinard aside:
Originally, Dinard was part of the parish of Saint-Énogat. In the late 19th century, the resort became popular with wealthy British nationals who built villas on the coast. Dinard rapidly expanded. It started declining in the 1930s when the fashionable social set started preferring the Côte d'Azur.

Legal soap opera. Yes great drama, suspect legal reality.

Why even bother? She can't even say for sure he was in her house all night. What a waste.

And that is the sound of a legal career ending.

What a tidy little ending.
Hammer production.
Actually not bad. A modestly budgeted film with top drawer acting.
