NOTES: For an Independent circuit feature, this run would have proved disappointing especially after its promising seven weeks in the city. The Ealing portmanteau was quickly relegated to Saturday or Tuesday status it did not muster the weeks for a strong EF rank. Murder at the Windmill was regular support.
