B-movie ghost story starring Hazel Court and Dermot Walsh as a
young couple who decide to buy a luxury steamboat for a romantic
getaway. They think that they've found the perfect boat, and scoff
at warnings that it's haunted. However, despite their initial
incredulity they are gradually convinced that there is something
strange going on in their new love-nest, and they decide to bring
in a paranormal expert, Professor Mansel Martineau (John Robinson)
to investigate. A horrifying secret about the boat's previous
owners is eventually revealed...
Triple bill of comedies starring Will Hay. 'Radio Parade of 1935'
(1934) was one of the first screen outings for Hay. He plays the
Director General of the National Broadcasting Group (NBG) who hides
away in his office unaware that the general feeling about his
programming is that it is too high-brow and the public are not
happy. However, when he discovers this he decides to take action
and promotes Jimmy, his Head of the Complaints Department, to
Programme Director. Jimmy decides that a series of variety
spectaculars are what the public want and sets about hiring the
acts. But obstacles are put in his way and he discovers that the
NBG has its own cluster of wannabe variety stars. In 'The Ghost of
St Michaels' (1941), the outbreak of the Second World War results
in the boys' school of St Michaels relocating to Dubain Castle on
the Isle of Skye. The new schoolmaster (Hay) scoffs at the legends
of a ghostly piper which haunts the castle - until two headmasters
come to a grisly end. Who will become the next victim of the
phantom piper? In 'The Black Sheep of Whitehall' (1942), Hay plays
Professor Davis, the intrepid head of a correspondence college.
Davis gets wind of the fact that a Nazi spy has infiltrated an
economic delegation with the intent of undermining attempts to
reach a trade agreement between Great Britain and certain South
American countries. The effort to expose the dastardly fellow sees
Hay adopt various disguises in a steady onslaught of
mistaken-identity comedy.
