Description
Adapting a story by Edgar Wallace, one of the twentieth century’s most celebrated and prolific suspense writers, this 1940 crime thriller centres on the attempts of Flying Squad officers to smash a London drug-smuggling ring. The final feature by leading silent-era director Herbert Brenon, The Flying Squad stars some of the era’s most accomplished performers, including Sebastian Shaw, Jack Hawkins and Kathleen Harrison, and is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements.
Inspector Bradley is out to break a drug-smuggling gang which operates from an old house overhanging the Thames; the gang is headed by a criminal called Mark McGill. The disappearance of young Ron Perryman whom McGill has murdered and dumped in the river gives the Inspector his ideal opportunity to begin asking questions.
