Who plays the house detective

for the hotel? I thought it might be J. Farrel MacDonald but he is credited as "policeman" so it confused me a little. Also, I didn't realize Topper's "nagging" wife is none other than The Good Witch!

The HOTEL scene WHERE TOPPER looks like he does one of the FUNNY WALKS that the MONTY PYTHON character does is HILARIOUS!!!

I agree wholeheartedly! IMHO it was one of the funniest scenes of the entire movie!

Thank you very much! I naturally thought he would be billed as "House detective" instead of his character's name/ I can sleep tonite! Ha!
