Afternoon Theatre: Trial by Judge

on BBC Home Service Basic

A play for radio by Michael Hardwick
with Felix Aylmer

Sir Evelyn Hampton was nearly eighty years of age, and this was his last case. To Sir Evelyn himself his retirement stood for the relinquishment of responsibility; to his son Andrew it seemed the laying down of a power 'like the power of God.'
(Broadcast on March 28, 1964)
