Miss Tulip Stays the Night (also known as Dead by Morning) is a 1955 British comedy crime film starring Diana Dors, Patrick Holt, Jack Hulbert and Cicely Courtneidge.
Novelist Andrew Dax and his wife Kate are sleeping peacefully in their new cottage when a mysterious older lady arrives, apparently stranded in a storm.
The Monthly Film Bulletin called Miss Tulip Stays the Night "a remarkably poor piece of craftsmanship in almost every sense.
"[10] The Guardian wrote: "The stupendous silliness of its plot and dialogue gives a certain wild period charm to 'Miss Tulip Stays the Night.
'"[11] Critic John Stratten of the Manchester Evening News wrote: "Miss Diana Dors may not like to be reminded of [the film], which belongs to a period before she was concerned with being a super-charged emotional actress.
