Over the Garden Wall is a 1950 British comedy film directed by John E. Blakeley and starring Norman Evans, Jimmy James and Dan Young.[1] The film was made at Mancunian Films at their Manchester film studios. Although made on a low-budget, the film often topped double bills at cinemas in the North of England because of the popularity of the performers.[2]
