Last of the Gainsborough crinolines ‘n’ capes period melodramas, with Margaret Lockwood as a clairvoyant girl who inherits a manor. What they gain in budget (better sets and Technicolour) they lose in quality, especially compared to – ooh, take an example purely at random – The Wicked Lady. Dennis Price and Lockwood’s Wicked co-star, the late Patricia Roc, star, and John Laurie and Esma ‘Flo’ Cannon make up the numbers.
