More-
A solid entry in The Edgar Wallace Mystery Theatre series of hourly films which often played as support features in cinemas.
Flat Two has a very good cast - John Le Mesurier, Jack Watling, Bernard Archard, Charles Lloyd Pack and Ann Bell who all perform well in this tightly knit tale of murder, corruption and robbery culminating in a decent little whodunnit mystery,
Alan Cooke directs with aplomb in what is a fairly pacy movie. I'd recommend this sort of thing to those who enjoy British crime movies.
-
A plotty, knotty, and almost entirely set-bound entry in the Edgar Wallace series. The presence of John Le Mesurier is always a plus.
-
Even the great John Le Mesurier can't raise this from being especially flat.
(See what I did there?!)
