A thriller in six parts.
Starring Gerald Harper, Jennifer Daniel, Edward Brayshaw
with Marion Mathie, Bernard Brown, Peter Ducrow

"Absolutely O.K. vintage." (Maurice Wiggin, Sunday Times)
"The new Francis Durbridge serial on BBC-2 started off at a cracking pace with a murder, a coshing, and a suicide. It was in true Durbridge style, full of twist, fast-moving and intriguing. I'm sure this is going to be a winner for all who like a well-written mystery." (Richard Sear, Daily Mirror)

A pace-setting adventure series starring Ben Gazzara as Paul Bryan, a man with no ties and no time to spare.

This week: Baby, the World's on Fire!

The friend's fiancee seems to be equally perplexed in the unexplainable circumstances - until a final showdown brings all the answers tumbling out.
