The Saturday Thriller: Suspect

BBC One
on BBC One London

Feature films with suspense, danger, excitement
starring Tony Britton, Virginia Maskell, Peter Cushing, Ian Bannen

An embittered scientist turns from the high road of scientific discovery on to the dangerous path to treason.
Virginia Maskell, one of the stars of tonight's thriller, has been seen twice recently on BBC-tv, first in the Midnight Movie Virgin Island and two weeks ago in Only Two Can Play, the hilarious comedy adapted from Kingsley Amis's novel That Certain Feeling. You can also see her later this week in the film on BBC-1, Doctor in Love, where she plays a glamorous doctor.
