Home at Seven (alternatively titled Murder On Monday) is a 1952 British mystery drama film directed by and starring Ralph Richardson, featuring Margaret Leighton, Jack Hawkins, Campbell Singer and Michael Shepley.

Preston, a City of London banker, returns at 7pm to his suburban home in Kent one Tuesday evening to discover that he has been missing for 24 hours, yet he does not remember the lost day.

He did this on Monday evening but started acting oddly following a loud bang outside, which seemed to trigger a war time memory.

[4] It was shot at Shepperton Studios with sets designed by the art directors Vincent Korda and Frederick Pusey.

"[5] Sight & Sound was more critical: Richardson had "divided his talent between the principal role and the direction, but the latter is practically non-existent in any cinema sense".

[6] Leslie Halliwell said: "Intriguing suburban mystery, well acted but all too flatly transferred from the stage, and with a weak solution.

He also re-creates his stage role as the timid bank clerk whose dose of amnesia coincides with a murder and a robbery.

It's more than a mite stagey, though, with wife Margaret Leighton and doctor Jack Hawkins particularly guilty of overseasoning the ham.
