Studio

The first production of Hammer Films stars popular radio star Leonard Henry as Henry Henry, a street musician who is hired at local pub Henry the Eighth, and immediately goes about livening up the atmosphere. Eventually he holds a benefit for a child who is injured in front of the pub and is discovered by a theatrical manager and given a contract.

Unfortunately, this film is now considered lost, except for a few stills and a pressbook.
