Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Some sources suggest that the original title for this British second-feature meller was Carrington School Mystery. Whatever the case, the film's plot contrives to have a dead body found in an exclusive school. We are then introduced to the suspects, each with oodles of motive. A smart detective and a smarter "girl friday" expose the Least Likely Suspect in the last five minutes of this 60-minute quickie. If you ever happen to stumble across The Carringford School Mystery on cable TV, be advised that the Jenny Jones who plays the female lead is not the TV talk show host of the same name.
