BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

by Lesley Bruce
When recently widowed Diana Ferris returns to her little terraced house, she finds the doors bolted against her.
The combined forces of the constabulary, the legal profession and the fourth estate - with some melodious singing from an assorted group of sympathetic neighbours - ensure that her problems are resolved on a harmonious note.
With Harvey and the Wallbangers
BBC Scotland
