Originally titled Maid for Murder, this British laughspinner is essentially a vehicle for the comedy team of Bob Monkhouse and Alfred Marks. Down to their last farthing, Monkhouse and Marks learn that their distant cousin, maidservant Anna Karina, has inherited a fortune. After their clumsy courtship efforts fail, the boys decide to murder Anna and claim the legacy for themselves. The same basic premise was better handled in the 1976 American black comedy The Fortune. She'll Have to Go was based on We Must Kill Toni, a play by Ian Stuart Black.
