On Christmas Eve 1950, four Scottish Nationalist students from Glasgow broke into
Westminster Abbey and took away the Stone of Scone from beneath the Coronation Chair. Every policeman in the country was mobilised to hunt it down.
For 109 days only one man in the world knew where it was. In 1973 he told his story to
Archie P. Lee on the promise that it would not be broadcast until after his death.
Presented and produced by Murdoch McPherson
(First broadcast on BBC Radio Scotland)
