The Lady Vanishes

Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film of lies, lost ladies and locomotives is brought vividly to life in this rollicking comedy-thriller! As war looms over Europe, a cosmopolitan collection of eccentrics attempts to get to London aboard the transalpine express, their journey hampered by avalanche and intrigue. Combining wit and humour with action and romance, the plot takes as many twists and turns as the mountain railway which carries them all on a perilous journey across a continent at the brink of total war!

With Terry Molloy – known to Dr Who fans as Davros, creator of the Daleks; and to Archers aficionados as milkman Mike Tucker – as Austrian brain specialist Dr Egon Hartz.  What The 39 Steps did for gentleman spies, The Lady Vanishes does for the ladies!!
