    I wonder whether anyone could tell me the name of a black and white comedy, probably late 1940s, possibly Ealing, set in a large country house..........the main strand I remember is of an imperious and quite batty Great Aunt, who presided over the household from her sedan chair on the first-floor landing, and in this contraption imagined that she was touring the world.



    Any ideas would be most appreciated. Pamela

    And the film poster showing Martita Hunt leaning out of the sedan chair!

    It's definitely Treasure Hunt - Martita Hunt plays a batty old lady who hasn't left the house since being jilted on her wedding day 30 years earlier. Because who else were they going to ask?
