In May 1947 Wareham Magistrates' Court imposed prison sentences and fines totalling more than £ 18,000 on a gang of smugglers. This programme is based on the events leading up to this case. The script is the result of interviews with those concerned. It has been necessary to give all the characters fictitious names
