Softly, Softly: Obstruction

on BBC One London

by Robert Barr
[Starring] Stratford Johns as Det. Chief Supt. Barlow, Frank Windsor as Det. Chief Insp. Watt, Philip Brack as Det.-Insp. Cook, Peggy Sinclair as P/W Det.-Sgt. Allins
with John Barron as A.C.C. Gilbert, Glyn Houston as Det. Supt. Jones

Barlow has always believed in holding his cards 'close to the chest.' But as temporary Acting Co-Ordinator he is somewhat put out when his second-in-command shows a tendency to do the same. And when Det. Supt. Arthur Jones plays his 'close' hand without reference to Barlow, the result is an acute embarrassment to them both.
