Dangerous Afternoon is a 1961 British 'B'[2] crime film directed by Charles Saunders and starring Ruth Dunning and Nora Nicholson.

On her release from prison, Jean Berry sets out to find escaped convict Irma Randall, with whom she has a score to settle.

She discovers Irma is running a boarding house for retired lady criminals, under the assumed name of Lefty Frost.

It was primarily filmed at Twickenham Studios, with the shops next to Strawberry Hill railway station, notably the chemist's in Wellesley Parade, being used for external location shots.

[citation needed] The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A home for elderly lady crooks who cannot always refrain from plying their old trades has comic possibilities, but these are largely cancelled out by a poor script and clumsy direction.
