Starring Margaret Rutherford, Ronald Shiner, A.E. Matthews

Simon Hilton is as cantankerous as he is wealthy, but his relatives humour him in the expectation of large inheritances. When the old man finally dies, the family is dismayed to find that the equally eccentric Aunt Clara has inherited his money. But exactly what is the staid Miss Hilton to do with his ill-gotten gains? Her plan is a rather unusual one...

Voices from an Imperial Past
A specially compiled Yesterday's Witness programme
In the twilight years of the Empire between the two great world wars India was still, as it always had been, the brightest jewel in Britain's Imperial diadem. And then in 1947 came sudden independence. The Raj was divided into two quite new, separate states - India and Pakistan - and the British said a final farewell to the subcontinent that they had ruled for some 300 years. But there are still men and women who can remember their lives and service in India before 1947, and 12 of them-soldiers, civil servants, public officials and their wives - now recall the Indian Empire as they personally experienced it in the first half of the 20th-century.
