Game 40

The cloth that never got dirty

An Ealing comedy

The game's question

Fill in the title as soon as the word comes – the last clue is only there if you need it.

In 1951, the Ealing studio in west London made a comedy about something to wear that never got dirty. Imagine it: not one stain, ever. The man in the story was dressed from head to toe in white, and the title says so. Fill it in together: ‘The Man in the White …’ (a word of four letters).

  • Coat
  • Suit
  • Hat
Need a hint?

A jacket and trousers that match, worn to the office or to a wedding: that is the missing word.

See the answer

Answer: Suit – ‘The Man in the White Suit’, an Ealing comedy from 1951.

Why this game : A word found together completes the title – and opens the door to the comedies you both enjoyed.
