    John Bentley is the super sleuth in this rather pedestrian tale of the aristocratic "Rolly" who is trying to track down a missing person and en route encounters murder and mischief. It moves along quickly and Roddy Hughes is standout as the butler "Jolly' who is as perfectly adept at throwing right hooks as he is at making tea; and he has quite a funny turn of phrase too. It's in a similar vein to Charteris' "The Saint" without quite the same degree of charm and sophistication.

Thick as Thieves

Two master thieves go at odds with one another as one sets the other up for a crime. The first, a suave pro who does his job and then hides in his own privacy, listening to old jazz records and caring for his ailing dog, Wally. The other is a local gangster with a taste for the finer life, who decides to eliminate the competition. This ignites a war between the two men and their aides. An angry mob boss and a female police officer try to sort the mess before things get too out of hand.
