Tim, if you can get hold of a copy - which might be tricky - then you also ought to try Lawrence Huntindgon's film "Warn That Man"

See Warn That Man (1943)

It has a very similar plotline - the "Man" is never named, but I assume it to be Churchill.

It has the added bonus (but you might not agree!) of starring the incomparable Gordon Harker.

Rob: Thanks very much for the suggestion. It looks like the sort of film I would like It is apparently quite difficult to find, as you said. I may have located it on a "hard to find" DVD site in Canada, if it is still available.

I must admit I wasn't certain who Gordon Harker was when I read your post, but identified him right away when I found a photo. I do like him.

Often I will know the faces of British character actors, but not always the names.

"Home was never like this"

"Mine was"

Could not read this off the screen so I printed it. I can not believe I have missed this over the years. Thank you for posting it, a good read.
I condensed the quote to the heading for obvious reasons. Anyone who has not read this critique do so.

I always wondered how the pianist Dame Myra Hess got on in the UK when announcing her name? She crops up in one film playing the piano too!

Well, if you told them I designed it, d'you think that might help?
