Dr. Finlay's Casebook: Pastures New

BBC One
on BBC One London

by Pat Dunlop
Created by A. J. Cronin
starring Andrew Cruickshank, Barbara Mullen, Bill Simpson
with Effie Morrison

Mistress Niven, the local layer-out, gossip, and unqualified nurse, is about to run into serious trouble with Dr. Finlay for endangering the life of a child by treating him unofficially and diagnosing incorrectly. Because there is no way Finlay can resort to the law he sends Janet with a very scathing letter, which unfortunately never gets delivered. Janet finds Mistress Niven in bed and we learn that she has contacted a very unusual disease indeed!
