Turkey Time is a 1933 British comedy film directed by Tom Walls and starring Walls, Ralph Lynn, Robertson Hare and Dorothy Hyson.[1] A group of guests come to stay with the Stoatt family in the seaside town of Eden Bay for Christmas.

It was adapted from the 1931 play Turkey Time by Ben Travers, one of the Aldwych Farces.

Production
The film was part of a successful series of screen adaptations of the Aldwych Farces throughout the 1930s that had begun with Rookery Nook in 1930. It was made by British Gaumont, the second film the actors had made with that studio after switching from Herbert Wilcox's British & Dominions Film Corporation. The screenplay was written by Ben Travers, adapted from his own play. The German Alfred Junge worked as art director.
