Ooh, count me in for Gert and Daisy Clean Up and It's in the Bag.

Also, I've been hoping to get hold of copies of Up With the Lark (1943, starring Revnell and West) and The Hundred Pound Window (1944).

I am still trying to find "Underneath The Arches".I last saw this on 16mm over 35years ago.I cant understand why this is not apparently on video bearing in mind that "A Fire Has Been Arranged" has been on tv numerous times and is on DVD.Anyone out there have any ideas on this.

Gracie Fields' Radio film from 1933 "This Week of Grace"; Jessie Matthews in "The Midshipmaid" ( 1932); Stanley Lupino in "Sleepless nights" (1933) ; Richard Hearne (Mr Pastry) in "The time of your life" (1956);

[Brief Encounter]

Look Before You Love (1948). Lockwood stars.

I think this thread should be renamed "impossible to find films". Imagine the years of effort by so many people searching for these titles. But let's keep positive .. and keep looking. If Grebmoolb does locate Ramsbottom Rides again, this suggests there may be hope eventually for at least some of these. Grebmoolb has helped me locate several films, so let's hope he continues to unearth the unexpected

As well as the above and also with a Malcolm Arnold contribution, I have also been searching for:
Wicked as they Come - aka Portrait in Smoke (1956)

[crunchie]

I have WICKED AS THEY COME on DVD

[CALF28]

Another Shore 1948. It's been on the telly so it might be out there. Slightly later in time another 'impossible' The Ugly Duckling 1959. I would like to see that again.

Two Gentleman Sharing (1969) - Judy Geeson, Robin Phillips & Hal Frederick
The World Ten Times Over (1963) - Sylvia Syms, June Ritchie, Edward Judd & William Hartnell
Crosstrap (1961) - Laurence Payne, Zena Marshall, Jill Adams & Bill Nagy
The Tall Headlines (1952) - Jane Hylton, Mai Zetterling, Michael Denison & Flora Robson
Blind Corner (1963) - William Sylvester, Barbara Shelley & Elizabeth Shepherd
Stranglehold (1962) - MacDonald Carey, Barbara Shelley & Philip Friend
Time Is My Enemy (1954) - Dennis Price, Susan Shaw & Patrick Barr
Black 13 (1953) - Rona Anderson, Peter Reynolds & Patrick Barr
Red & Blue (1967) - Vanessa Redgrave & Michael York
Noose For A Lady (1953) - Dennis Price & Rona Anderson

This is just the tip of the Iceberg
