How to live with animals and look after them.
Introduced by Di Fisher.

More than five million people in Britain now keep tropical or coldwater fish.
What explains this post-war boom in fish tanks in the house and pools in the garden? Are houses and flats becoming too small for bigger pets? Is the sight of tropical fish a sedative for the strains of modern life?

by N.J. Crisp
Starring Marius Goring
with Ann Morrish
and Victor Winding, Michael Farnsworth, Sally Nesbitt

A girl is assaulted in a park and the only witness is her young daughter. The police are certain they know who did it, but the girl cannot identify the man in an identity parade.
Hardy sees her domineering mother-in-law and her ineffectual husband, but gets no help from either of them. It is only when Inspector Fleming arrives at his laboratory that the pieces begin to fall into place.
