Mrs Wilberforce is one of London's nicer landladies. A little vague perhaps, but definitely not the sort of person to have a gang of desperate killers in her house. Unfortunately, Professor Marcus and his friends are not the musical society she supposes and their plans for the little old lady are anything but harmonious.

Grateful though she is for small mercies, Rhoda has to face it. An urgent visit to the casualty department of a hospital is not likely to result in an encounter with your actual Florence Nightingale -or anyone else for that matter!

This week: Who'd Own an Island?
What happens when a wealthy businessman, with a taste for adventure, buys a Scottish island, determined to make it pay? When modern private enterprise confronts ancient traditions of feudalism and benevolent patronage? What, at a time of national stringency, should the mainland do to subsidise the islands' way of life? Are they geographical lame ducks - beautiful, but doomed?
When Keith Schellenberg (who thought nothing of driving his 1930 Bentley across the Sahara) bought the Hebridean Isle of Eigg in 1975, he was seeking an opportunity to prove that democratic capitalism could work, that the island economy could begin to manage without government subsidy. Four years later the population has almost doubled, and Eigg is approaching solvency.
But success has highlighted major human problems - identical to those faced by mainland society. Gavin Scott reports on the price paid for prosperity by Eigg, its people and its Laird.
