1hr 28mins
Dir: Cyril Frankel
Starring: Peter Finch and Adrienne Corri

An antiques dealer dreams of owning a precious vase

This technicolor comedy has one scene in which Peter Finch heads to an auction by train. His journey from London Marylebone includes an establishing shot of the station platforms and a good shot of an express hauled by an ex-LNER Class A3 4-6-2 but the actual platform scenes with carriage interiors are a studio set.

An express speeds past the camera hauled by an A3 Class 4-6-2. This shot also appeared the following year in John and Julie (qv).
