The major selling point for me was Terence Rattigan who was responsible for both the original idea plus part of the script. Though inevitably it appears dated it also possesses a patina of nostalgia both for its casting - Jean Kent, Patricia Plunkett, Derek 'Mr. Redwood' Farr, Robert Flemying, Kenneth Griffith, Hazel Court, Kathleen Harrison - and its time-capsule storyline. Four years later Julian Duvivier would expand on the idea of objects as story lines when his Souvenirs Perdus centred on articles in a Lost Property office whilst here the objects are all associated with the wedding of Hazel Court. Though slightly uneven the four segments do manage to blend into a half-decent whole.
