Re: Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back

I think the film _Bulldog Drummond Escapes_ (1937),
which we hadn't menuptioned, essentially is a reboot
in that medium, and it introduces Drummond to his
fiancee, Phylis Clavering.
Wikipedia thinks that _Bulldog Jack_ /
_Alias Bulldog Drummond_ (1935) does belong with the
films immediately following, but that is deacribed
as a comedy in which Drummond is injured and hires
Jack Pennington to take his place fighting bad guys.
Anyway, I think that many later films during 1937-1939
/all/ had Drummond about to marry Ms Clavering at
the start, but then Scotland Yard called or
Ms Clavering was kidnapped or Drummond was kidnapped
and it prevents the ceremony from occurring.
It's a deliberate comedy element.
