As usual, rumours are rife in Westminster but Charles hopes he has intercepted in time to prevent a scandal.

Sharp and Wigton know about an incriminating letter and so, probably by now does Rose.

Incidentally, why has the usually loyal Rose chosen to stay away from the office without contacting Charles?

And why is his wife Mary also being so secretive?

Christopher Lee's political thriller serial.

Starring Julian Glover.

More intrigue and conspiracy reverberating in the corridors of Westminster.
