Starring Alec Guinness, Cecil Parker, Herbert Lom, Peter Sellers and Danny Green. Mrs Wilberforce (Katie Johnson) lives alone in King\'s Cross with her parrots.

However, when one of the group\'s cases gets caught in the door and opens to reveal, not a musical instrument, but a plethora of banknotes, the virtuous Mrs Wilberforce vows to go to the police with the identities of the men. The criminals agree that the old lady has to be killed to silence her, but will this be as straightforward as it sounds?
