Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This by-the-numbers quota quickie at least has the advantage of brevity. Clifford Mollison stars as Lord Victor Wilby, whose lofty title belies his present penniless state. Hoping to make a lot of money in a hurry, Lord Victor plans to marry wealthy American heiress Helen Sowersby (Frances Dean). This requires our hero to end his relationship with his longtime mistress Joan Lynton (Constance Shotter). Now if only his Lordship can convince Joan to pose as his sister. Meet My Sister is stolen by veteran music hall entertainer Fred Duprez, the father of 1940s leading lady June Duprez.
