I love Alistair Sim. He was a brilliant actor, as proved by his later role as Ebenezer Scrooge. Thanks for this great movie!
👌
I watch Scrooge every Christmas season. I've always loved that version.
@@hombreenojado Yes, it was the first version I ever saw. I've never seen a better version. Sim was just brilliant. The scene when he sees his name on the tombstone. In any case, I agree with you. It is definitely the best, and I still watch it every Christmas.
i too watch Sim's "Scrooge " every Christmas.! He is by far the best. In Inspector Hornleigh , Sim reminds me of Gomer Pyle; a lovable goof. What a versatile actor.
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. How can one not love old movies when we have such quality and style
The sheer number of hilarious one liners is an amazing feat of writing! You can't turn your ear away for a moment!!
Especially as they talk so fast they're hardly understandable anyway :(
Never has any trouble finding the bar.
@@Keyboardje Go to 'settings' and put playback speed to .75x. Also enable closed captioning. I am hearing impaired and this has saved many a movie for me.
thank you for that.@@l.5832
@@l.5832Exactly.
Going to watch this again. Some months since I last watched this. It is that good that it deserves watching again, and again. Brilliant lines and brilliant humour, things not taken too seriously.
Another wonderful and entertaining example of the cinema of yesteryear. Perfect films for evening viewing, especially on the dark, cold winter nights. Thank you so very much for posting this, it is very appreciated.
usually we use "last year" but u have used the beautiful word "yesteryear" .... i wonder
Wonderful. Thanks
....the writers for this series had two outstandingly gifted actors to bring the characters to life in Gordon Harker and Alistair Sim.....too bad there wasn’t 8-10 in the series.....these two went together like ham & eggs........
Never saw an Inspector Hornleigh mystery before. It was quite interesting. I liked it.
No, that was a really good inspector Horley that I had not seen before. Thank you so much. I’m gonna look for more now.
Pleasantly surprised; will watch other Insp. Hornleigh films.
Loved it.....so much grace, quality and story compared to the new ones these days
What a great series with such fine actors…I wish the producers of 90 years ago would have realized what they had and made a dozen more!
I💖these older b&w flicks. TY for this upload of an original crime drama served with a slice of humor~extremely entertaining 👍
THanks for uploading this a great movie
Someone aught to inform tcm that there are plenty of people who love old movies. Then they can stop playing those newer crappy movies. Thank heavens for the internet,although I don’t always have access to it
Get your freak on watching German silent films with some good Rock & Roll music in background.
Just get a newer phone. I've not had TV, cable,. computer, but have extensions cords.
I quit watching TCM NOTHING BUT CRAP.
@@victorwadsworth821 Shouldn't make much difference if they are silent!
In case you havent noticed it ... old movies are "racist" and "sexist" in the eyes of the people running media these days ... because communist-style ideologies are TAKING OVER THE ENTIRE WEST. This includes feminism and BLM ... but not just those two. Thus these old movies will not be shown ... because todays feminists will find them offensive!
I loved it. Thank you. Scotland Yard always reminds me of my favorite, Sherlock Holmes. I am happy to meet Inspector Hornleigh.
A wonderful movie with great actors, and a good story line too
He says hes a representative of the traveling textile industry and in my opinion he's pretty strong on fabrications , funny line
What entertainment, thank you for posting, I will follow you.
A masterclass in the intricacies that apply to the genre :-)
Oh how I wish they were more Inspector Hornleigh movies.
There’s another one on RUclips called Inspector Hornleigh Goes To It and another called Inspector Hornleigh On Holiday.
Thank goodness for the oldies and the goodies..cause they have no clue on how to make movies of good quality anymore
That was a fun movie. Thank you for sharing it.
Loved the ending, excellent!
Perfectly delightful. Top rate. Thank you for posting.
kokolanza Delightful if you aren't bothered by all the Scot bashing? That sees to be acceptable even today on the BBC and it is time that ended.
Thank you for pointing that out, K Kr. I will be more sensitive to that, and other such prejudicial language and behavior, in the future. AND as I watch the other two Inspector Hornleigh films.
Very entertaining movie - thanks so much for sharing it with us!!
Thanks that was great. Enjoy the old movies better than the new ones.
Enormous thanks for uploading this wonderful film; great to see Alastair Sim in this one--superb actor in this comic relief role.
Thanks ever so much! Love Alastair Sim!
He's my favorite Scrooge.
@@IamDoogy Absolutely. No contest!!!

Very entertaining thank you so much
LOVE THE SCENERY!!
This is a fun flick, had me puzzled to the very last scene. Thanks for posting.
Never mind the fingerprints, eh?! LOL
Very good movie, these old ones are all good with real story lines. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing. Learn something new every day. I just read why there is a logo on the corner. I had no idea that people stole from other RUclipsr's to put on their channel. But then I am 73 years old and technology challanged. Such a shame they are too lazy to to find their own. These B movies are the best, Alistair Sim, always an asset. Happy viewing Las Vegas, NV 10/03/18
Then why don't you explain it to us, I am only going by what I was told. 10/14/2018
I love how they touch the evidence. LOl
That was brilliant thank you for posting
I'm giving it a try. Any classic movies are worth the try. I've loved them since about 2009. But as a kid I watched a few. I never realized how much I missed them till I started watching them again. I'm going to join the TCM wine club as soon as I can afford it.
Stay safe and healthy everyone and GOD BLESS. For the uploads.
Only problem is tcm is changing,not so many old movies now. Bringing in the newer crap. They think the people that loved the old movies are gone. THEY ARE WRONG! These movies are before my time,but I still loved them
This film is the best out of the three. Gordon Harker and Alastair Sim work well together.
Superb flick has some good slapstick one liners, comic jump scares and end you wont see coming.
Most Excellent! Very enjoyable! Really delightful! Thank you so much for this before-always-hidden from me Treasure.
Thanks for a great movie 🤦🏽♀️👏🏾🙋🏽
WONDERFUL OLD MOVIE
Great old movie ! thank you !
The young lady is just wonderful
How times have changed.
Great film for a coronavirus lockdown Easter.
Stay safe folks. 🐣
😊
NO "LOCKDOWN" where I live.
Alister Sims.. such a different role from that of A Christmas Carol!
SUPER MERCI POUR CETTE PETITE PÉPITE !.. GORDON ET ALASTAIR SONT ÉPATANTS EN COMIQUES PINCE SANS RIRE !.. SUPER BRAVO À TOUTE L'ÉQUIPE FORMIDABLE !.. BONUS PLUS À LA LE LES SCÉNARISTES !..
Absolutely one of my favorites only second to Sherlock Holmes.
These two were really fun actors to watch; way better than the modern times.
🍉🍟🍕🥖🍿🥓🌭🌮
Alister Sims was fantastic for this role. So is there a series? If not there should have been one it was well done and kept my attention to the end. Well written, great casting, good plot with a twist at the end not expectected.
I didn't expect the butler in this. Perhaps I should have. They always said the butler did it. Ha.
This is the first time I've seen Alastair Sim outside of him as Scrooge.
Might I suggest you watch another Alastair Sim film called Green for Danger (1946)?
I have never heard of him before.
Fabulous! Thank you
Loved this. Never heard of this film, but I thank you for putting it up -- it was thoroughly enjoyable.
Thank you. Loved it.
The man lived there and the room was full of dust, I’m pretty sure the landlady wasn’t up to standard with her dusting beforehand 😂
Great movie for a dreary friday!!😙💕
Miki Hood, my new favorite!
Thanks good movie!
Great movie.
Thank you thank you!
"This is no time for bathing."🤣
Love British movies.
Entertaining and a great bit of fun, makes me look a right twit as I did not work it out myself, still being like Alister Sim well that's not too bad!
Mr. Cavasson was very Very much like Peter Lorre, in appearance and especially voice! 😀
I enjoyed that!
Great movie! I never saw Alastair sim play anything but Scrooge!
That's a shame as he's in so many very funny British movies!
Try: Green for Danger, Hue and Cry, The Happiest Days of Your Life, Laughter in Paradise and the really funny School for Scoundrels which has the added bonus of Terry-Thomas in it too! :-)
A 20th Century-Fox British division film, and by the late 1930's, they had caught up and even passed American films in some ways.
The Inspector reminds me of the real life cop/comedian Alfie Moore, from the BBC radio show It's a Fair Cop.
56:41 Wow!...... News sure travels fast around there.
Great classic y never see again thanks ❤
What a great movie
a good romp🎥🎥👍
You can immediately tell it's the bad guy in the first scene of the movie. He didn't say 'hello' to the kitty.
Pretty good ole movie !
Trivia @ 26:04 is a pinball machine.
The First Pinball Machines
It wasn’t until the 1930s that the first modern-looking, coin-operated pinball machine was invented. It was created by the company Automatic Industries, which named it a “whiffle board.”
Next up was a game called “Ballyhoo,” invented in the 1930s by Raymond Maloney. Later, he established the Bally Manufacturing Company of Chicago, IL.
Other games invented this time include “Bingo” by Bingo Novelty Company and “Baffle Ball” by D. Gottlieb & Co. All of these games were made with wooden legs and tables, starkly contrasting the pinball machines of today, which are made of chrome and steel.
Despite all these inventions in the early 1930s, none of them were called pinball! It wasn’t until 1936 that the term “pinball” was coined.
What was the very short voice over at approx 32:37 - "...can you..."? Perhaps a clip that had been cut? Don't make sense...
_You've been long enough on the force, Hornleigh, to know that if you want anything done you must do it yourself, and not leave it to a simple Scot._
_I never know whether you English are serious, joking or mad._
Loudmouth landlady: I've never had trouble with the police!....
Inspector Hornleigh: You surprise me!...
😂😂👍
Who is that gorgeous actress?
Miki Hood was so gorgeous. Why did she give up acting. A totally unknown actress to me.
_she became a lesbian and entered a monastery_
@@anhumblemessengerofthelawo3858 🤪🤪😝😝😝😝
Far cry from the super human people viewed today. A regular guy working with limited abilities just like us.
I love Alistair Sim❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can you upload little miss nobody 1936
CHARMING !

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
Recommend the box set of the 12 episodes---if you don't have it; you've posted my favorite Basil lines, and then Manuel's "He put Basil in the Ratatouille!?"

It's not really a c😅medy !
But a very good old time murder mystery 😊
41:49 cigarette ???...Yes, yes it is !!!!!!!!!!
Dectectives from. Great British are funnyer or it's the scotland yard trust
English actors were the best; even the bad ones did well in Hollywood, namely Carrie Grant.
Don't you mean "Inspector Horny" sallis65? Say "Hello" to the dog for me.
a men movie, hardly any ladies, but makes no difference !
cops , never around when you need them . but when you need to go home thay allways there to give you a bad time.
The racism makes it difficult to watch. I cringe at every anti-Scot remark. The worst was when Inspector Hornleigh calls Sargeant Bingham a Scot savage. 😢
But he was the killer
What a miserable life you must live, the life of the party.
Turn. This off
