Written by N.J. Crisp.
A series created by Ted Willis.
Starring Jack Warner

Ralph Frazer: an ordinary man, respectable, hardworking, a good husband and father. There is nothing about him to arouse suspicion. But who can be assumed innocent when his life is analysed and his motives placed under a microscope? Which of us has not some flaw which can bring our carefully constructed world to disaster?

The River Police, or Thames Division as they are officially known, play a major part in the investigation started by a chance encounter on London's river.

A new look at some of the jokes and sketches of the Music-Hall era.
Starring Billy Dainty, Don Smoothey, Len Lowe, Dorothy Wayne, Ken Roberts
Guest artists: Bob and Alf Pearson

(Billy Dainty, Dorothy Wayne, and Len Lowe are appearing at The Pavilion Theatre, Worthing; Don Smoothey at The Pier Theatre, Eastbourne; Ken Roberts at The Hoe Theatre, Plymouth)

Bob and Alf Pearson have been music-hall stars for more than a quarter of a century. Bob is the burly one who plays the piano, Alf the small one who stands at his shoulder and joins him in songs and jokes. They are real brothers, and have made more than 1,000 broadcasts, notably in the Ray's a Laugh series in which they were the voices for immortal characters like Mrs. 'Oskins, Ivy, and Jennifer.
