From the novel "Battle for Inspector West" by John Creasey, adapted in seven parts by Maurice Travers
Starring Patrick Allen and Sarah Lawson
News of an old enemy threatens the honeymoon of Michael Grant - and violent death sends Roger West to Dorset

Patrick Allen and Sarah Lawson in "Stand by for West"
It was idle curiosity - or so he said - which took Chief Inspector Roger West of Scotland Yard and his wife Janet to look at a high-society wedding. And it was to lead John Creasey's most famous character into a web of terror, murder, and evil!
John Creasey is a literary phenomenon. Before his first book was published, he had piled up over seven hundred rejections, ranging from novels to epic poems. Today he is Britain's most consistently popular writer of crime-thrillers. He has been described as 'the master craftsman of mystery'; his books have sold more than twenty-five million copies and he is read in seventeen different languages. His output is stupendous. In a recent twelve-month period, ninety-eight editions or adaptations of his books appeared, including thirteen new titles; Gideon, The Baron, The Toff are among the outstanding characters he has created, but for excitement, suspense and adventure which sweeps forward at patrol-car pace, there is nothing to beat the cases of 'West of the Yard.'
Now this home-loving, hard-hitting, very human policeman comes to the air for the first time-in a seven-part dramatisation which stars two very well-known artists: Patrick Allen and Sarah Lawson (husband and wife in real life) as Roger and Janet West.
