A crime series
This week: Lee Montague as Hillary Waugh's Police Chief Fellows investigates the Prisoner's Plea
Dramatised by William Emms

The date for Ernest Jackson's execution has been set. In 17 days he will go to the chair for the murder of his wife - brutally killed three years earlier. In despair he appeals to Police Chief Fellows; the evidence which led to his conviction is purely circumstantial; no motive has been proved. Disturbed at the possibility of a miscarriage of justice, Fellows spends his vacation pursuing the now cold trail. Was some vital clue overlooked? Did some other person have a motive for the killing? The days pass, and gradually Fellows begins to uncover the truth.

Written and directed by Bryan Forbes
The first in a season of outstanding feature films made between ten and five years ago.

The story of a French girl and her motley assortment of neighbours who rent bedsitters in the same crumbling Notting Hill Gate house

A beautiful performance by Leslie Caron adds the touch of perfection to a superb film that was very much the personal creation of Bryan Forbes. The theme music is Brahms's Piano Concerto No 1.
