Tom Murray's wedding day becomes a nightmare when a mysterious stranger turns up claiming to be his wife. Annette is a French woman who had an affair with Tom during the Second World War, when he was injured near Normandy and she nursed him back to health. She claims that Tom became her husband then, but he has no memory of it. Annette is willing to divorce Tom, but only with a settlement of 10,000 ponds.

Recent assessments[edit]
TV Guide writes that "an intriguing premise suffers from some unbelievable plot twists and turns".[3]
According to moviereviewsandnews.com, the film is "lifted above the mundane by an earnest performance by Gordon Jackson and a decent supporting cast. It's a little too obvious and too reliant on coincidence, though, and the final scenes lack both credibility and emotional resonance."[4]
