Small Hotel*
GB 1957. ABPC. 59m. bw

The shady veteran head waiter at a small guest house manages to manoeuvre his way out of being dismissed.
Slightly static (strongly resembling its stage origins) but satisfactory British B-feature, with some easily identifiable comic characters. A more genteel predecessor to Fawlty Towers.
