What happens
Eight O'Clock Walk is a 1954 British drama film directed by Lance Comfort and starring Richard Attenborough, Cathy O'Donnell, Derek Farr and Maurice Denham. Based on a true story, Eight O'Clock Walk is an anti-capital punishment film (the title refers to the hour at which executions were traditionally carried out, though in London (where the film is set) executions were carried out at 9 am) that points out the danger of circumstantial evidence resulting in the death of a mistakenly accused prisoner.
