A dramatised documentary by Michael Gilbert.

The recording of 'crimes' and 'occurrences' is an unending police routine. 'Crime Report', the story of a murder investigation conducted from a police station in a London suburb, shows how such routine can provide the vital clue, for 'murderers are found as often as not by someone who takes the trouble to sit still and wade through half a ton of paper.'
