    Death in Bloomsbury

    The Old Bill as usual are always several steps behind the criminal activities of a bunch of smooth foreign crooks described as 'Passport Racketeers' (today they would be called people traffickers) in this typically slick late fifties Lance Comfort potboiler.

    Talky but good-looking (both indoors and in and around a wintry-looking London in the days when one could park straight away on a whim) thanks to his veteran cameraman Basil Emmott and to cool blonde Lisa Gastoni as the female lead. The one liability is the usual noisy score by Wilfred Burns.
