Written and narrated by Frederick Bradnum with Geoffrey Palmer as Colonel Valentine Baker and Emily Richard as Kate Rebecca Dickinson
In 1875 an Army officer and a young lady shared a compartment in the train from Petersfield to London. As to what happened on that train on that journey we have only the sworn testimony of Miss Dickinson, given at the trial of Colonel Baker, for Baker was never asked for his version, and it is possible that the real truth was never told - or wasn't, at that time.
