Featured review
That a blow to the head can propel you back into the past has become such a cliche it was even employed by Eric Cartman as a means to engineer a meeting with the Founding Fathers in the 2003 'South Park' episode 'I'm a Little Bit Country'!
Sumptuously produced in Technicolor and set in a huge Georgian mansion in Surrey. It's heroine wears a succession of fabulous costumes in which she introduces each episode sweeping down the main staircase until No.4, when she's out seeing in 1920 drunkenly dancing on a tabletop.
This potentially provocative subject naturally sinks like a stone under the leaden direction of Herbert Wilcox. But you haven't lived until you've seen Dame Anna pretending to be a flapper!
