62. During a charity soccer match, the star striker of the amateur side Trojans collapses and dies. Inspector Slade is brought in to investigate the death and declares it murder. Which British film is this?
From Quiz Tube Station Movies
Answer:
The Arsenal Stadium Mystery
Arsenal station, on the Piccadilly line in North London, was named after the football club who played their home matches at the neighbouring Highbury stadium. Prior to its renaming in 1932, the station was known by the road it was situated in, Gillespie Road. Even after Arsenal vacated Highbury in 2006 to move to a stadium in Ashburton Grove, the station retained its name.
The film, made just before the outbreak of World War II and released in 1940, begins with the high profile charity match between the amateur team, the Trojans and the star Division One team Arsenal. Shortly after half-time, with Arsenal leading by a single goal, the Trojans star striker collapses and dies. The police are called in and it is discovered that the player was poisoned. The eccentric Detective Inspector Slade, played by Leslie Banks, is appointed to lead the man hunt for the killer although his main concern is that the unravelling of the mystery doesn't interfere with his performance for the Police Amateur Dramatics Society.
