Default Mervyn Johns - *half sorted!*

Trying to complete collection of old UK films featuring Mervyn Johns in significant roles. Can anyone help with any of the following, which I have been unable to locate from usual commercial sites, ebay etc:-

Dead of Night 1945 (yes - the one with Redgrave and the dummy!)
Twilight Hour 1945
Halfway House 1945
Helter Skelter 1949
Quartet 1949

Many thanks, in hope!

'Dead Of Night' is in this DVD collection :
Ealing Classics DVD Collection - Went The Day Well?/Dead Of Night/Nicholas Nickleby/Scott of the Antarctic

You can still buy it new for under £20 on Amazon Marketplace.

Some of members have kindly offered Dead of Night, Halfway House and Quartet. If anyone has any info on the remaining 2, Twilight Hour, and Helter Skelter I would love to hear it! Thanks
