1: The Case of Madeleine Smith with Vivien Heilbron as Madeleine Smith
Written by PETER HUNT
Narrator Frank Windsor
A criminal trial may reveal more than whether or not the defendant is guilty. Occasionally it reveals a great deal about the society of the time.
In 1857 the daughter of James Smith of Glasgow was accused of poisoning her lover with arsenic. The jury's verdict was that the charge was ' not proven '. But if Madeleine Smith was guilty was she entirely to blame for what she did? with STEVE HODSON , DEBORAH PAIGE
JOHN ROWE and MICHAEL SHANNON Producer ALAN HAYDOCK
(Repeated: Friday 11.5 am)
