A journalist on a local paper helps police track down the killer of a blackmailer

This crime film features several scenes that were shot in Dudley Road, Southall, and in the background of one, an ex-GWR 5700-series 0-6-0PT is shunting some wagons in Southall Gasworks. A remarkably similar shot had appeared the previous year in The Gay Dog (qv). This film was based on the Robert Chapman novel of the same name.

The ex-GWR Pannier Tank loco is visible directly above the car in this view of Dudley Road, Southall
