Not off the top of me head as I recall...

Mind you, there's so much uncatalogued here you never know...
Keep asking around and if anything turns up in the meantime I'll let you know.

I'm trying to add to my collection of 'Aldwych' comedies. So far i've got 'Dirty Work', 'Stormy Weather', 'Foreign Affaires' and 'Fast and Loose'. Does anyone have the following?

Rookery Nook (Tom Walls - 1930)
Thark (Tom Walls - 1931)
A Night Like This (Tom Walls - 1931)
Mischief (Jack Raymond - 1931)
The Chance of a Night Time (Ralph Lynn & Herbert Wilcox - 1931)
Thark (Tom Walls - 1932)
Up to the Neck (Jack Raymond - 1933)
Turkey Time (Tom Walls - 1933)
Just My Luck (Jack Raymond - 1933)
A Cuckoo in the Nest (Tom Walls - 1933)
A Cup of Kindness (Tom Walls - 1934)
Lady in Danger (Tom Walls - 1935)
Fighting Stock (Tom Walls - 1935)
Pot Luck (Tom Walls - 1936)
Dishonour Bright (Tom Walls - 1936)
For Valour (Tom Walls - 1937)
Second Best Bed (Tom Walls - 1938)
Old Iron (Tom Walls - 1938)
So This is London (Thornton Freeland - 1940)
Banana Ridge (Walter C. Mycroft - 1942)
Uncle Silas (Charles Frank - 1947)

All the above may not be strictly 'Aldywch' but do have the involvement of Ben Travers in the writing department. I complied it from imdb who also list a swedish and finish version of 'Thark'.
