This is an extremely taut and well made bottom of the bill thriller.The location in Winnington Road is only a a few hundred yards away from me and the house still stands.There are a number of flaws in the plot.Firstly allowing Clunes to be alone with shaw.Gregson doesn't give any specific reason for allowing this.Then Clunes being allowed to stay at the hospital bedside with the injured Shaw.When Shaw dies surely he would have been charged with at least manslaughter.Now we come to the final point.According to Google Maps the distance from Chiswick to Wimbledon is 8.9 miles and would take 24 minutes to arrive.There is no way that even a police car could do this journey in 15 minutes,so this rather for me at any rate left the ending fairly predictable.however this does not detract from what is a fine film.In the book "British B Movies" this film is nominated for then ten best produced post war.Incidentally it supported "Hud" on its release in those marvellous long gone days of double bills.
