The Marble Clock

on BBC Home Service Basic

by Roger Dixon
with Peter Claughton and Elsa Palmer
After working thirty years for his firm, Charlie Patcham was presented with the marble clock from the boardroom mantelpiece. When he took it home, his wife refused to have it in the house. Getting rid of it, however, turned out to be easier said than done.
