The Adventures of PC 49 (1949)
Director: Godfrey Grayson
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Rousing little low-budget movie, a lighthearted look at the perils a London bobby faces when he witnesses a truck robbery and comes up against the dreaded Rossini gang of Manchester. Truly British stuff, based on a radio series, complete with colourful criminal slang and seamy, if hardly menacing, low-life.Author: GA
