This is NOT the performance contained in the Coward Collection DVD. That is a live theatrical performance with Donald Sinden and Dinah Sheridan, which, by the way, I cannot find anywhere listed in the IMDb. That video is good, but not exceptional. It's the usual facile Coward comedy with no depth, and the performances, it being live theatre, our over-the-top. And it's hard to picture Sinden as a 'romantic idol', consider he has no physical charm or appeal. O'Toole would have been better. It's a pity Cary Grant never did it. He would have been perfect. The play itself is facile and dated as is much of Coward these days. The characters have no depth. This is purely farce...and not very funny at that.
