A play for broadcasting by NORAH RICHARDSON
Produced by CYRIL WOOD
... The poignant emotion ... that's the word ... stays somehow in the atmosphere of a place. I think the poignant word stays too-the words someone's used with absolutely tremendous emotion behind 'em. They're there-always.'
The principal characters include :
Jimmy Bellingham
Septimus Oldfield , his friend
Police Superintendent Wetherell
Police Constable Perkins
The action of the play begins in Bellingham's rooms in London and moves by way of the Tower of London, the portico of Covent Garden Opera House, a spot near the Marble Arch, and a room at the Ministry of Labour to a villa at Kingston-on-Thames. Time, the present day
