Saturday-Night Theatre: Dead Men's Shoes

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by SIMON MASTERS
A heart attack faces Det Insp Jack Branigan with an early retirement party, sympathetic smiles from colleagues and the patronising chit-chat of keen young men like Ray Duerdon, obviously angling for his old job.
But that evening, events unfold which are to pit experience against ambition.
Directed by VANESSA WHITBURN BBC Birmingham
(Repeated: Mon 3.0 pm)
