Description
On-screen: Exterior of a British dance hall
Description: We hear the live music-hall version of "I Do Like to Be Beside the Seaside" outside of a music hall; the cue sheet points out that four seconds of the Will Letters song "Take Me There" overlaps (almost imperceptibly) with the beginning of this music hall song; the music hall tune continues in the background as the doctor helps Leni, who has attempted suicide
