The Tell-Tale Heart (1960): A dark and dramatic adaption of Edgar Allan Poe's classic story, Laurence Payne stars as Edgar Marsh, a shy and awkward librarian who becomes obsessed with his new neighbour Betty Clare. Despite Marsh's infatuation and determination to win her affections, Betty Clare falls for Marsh's close friend Carl Loomis, a charismatic man of the world. Discovering their affair, Marsh's obsession turns to murderous rage and he kills Loomis. Consumed with guilt Marsh's mind begins to crumble as the sound of Loomis's still-beating heart haunts his every waking hour.
Part-Time Wife (1961): Tom is an unsuccessful insurance salesman with only one ray of sunshine in his life, his beautiful new bride Jenny. When Tom looks up his old army buddy Drew in an attempt to sell him some car insurance for the company fleet, Drew hatches a plan to convince his uncle and owner of the company that far from being a playboy crook, he is a happily married man. The only problem is he's chosen Jenny to be his pretend wife. Drew and Jenny must play the perfect husband and wife until Drew's uncle returns to America, while Tom must do everything he can to ensure the plan goes without a hitch in order to secure the biggest insurance deal of his life...and to guarantee the innocence of his wife!
The Battleaxe (1962): Francis Matthews and Jill Ireland star as Tony Evers and Audrey Page, an engaged couple whose pre-marital bliss is shattered by the future bride's domineering mother. Unable to withstand this wicked witch of the Northlands, Matthews tries to weasel out of the marriage by suing for breach of promise: the broken promise being that mother would stop meddling. Joan Haythorne plays the domineering mother in-law Mrs Page who has made it her business to keep the two apart and ensure her daughter doesn't marry such a crooked character.
Fate Takes A Hand (1962): When a mail bag full of post that was taken in a robbery is discovered fifteen years later, a Post Office employee and local reporter decide to deliver the letters to their original intended addressees. This solitary incident has profound ramifications on several of the recipients and this film tells the story of how just five of those letters changed peoples lives forever.
Two Wives At One Wedding (1961): Tom Murray and his new bride's wedding day takes a turn for the worse when a mysterious woman arrives uninvited with a startling revelation - she claims to be Tom's wife. Annette is a French woman who Tom had a wartime romance with at the end of the Second World War after he was injured near Normandy and she nursed him back to health. It is then that Annette claims the marriage took place, something Tom has no memory of. She is willing to divorce Tom but only with a £10,000 settlement. Blackmailed and with his promising medical career in the balance should the story reach the papers, Tom must hunt down the facts to determine if Annette is really telling the truth.
