Thank you soooooo much for posting this - a truly wonderful, atmospheric and classic example of '60s British small-features. This hasn't been on TV I believe for getting on for 10 years now (Channel 4 very late one night). My VHS has been sadly ruined. I pray one day for a DVD release - is there a chance you could post the whole film up on here, in the ongoing absence of such a release? Many thanks!

@limeyleafsfan Sorry, I was prosecuted for uploading films in their entirety (on another video hosting site) a few years back and have absolutely no desire to relive the experience. I'm happy to trade with others (indeed it's the whole point of my channel here at YT) but complete uploads are out of the question.

Thanks for uploading this mate! by the way what are your thoughts on this film? it's so obscure i dont know many opinions on it

[StatesEdgeFilms]

@yorkypudify Erm... it's been a while since I watched it. Some good acting, atmospherically shot, few nice ideas, at under 80mins it doesn't outstay it's welcome, and Valerie Gearoff-sorry-on is at her most beautiful. IMDB puts it at 5.6. I'd probably be a smidge more generous and give it 6.5 - 7.0.
