Starring Carol Royle, Julia Swift and Julia Hills, with guest stars including early roles for Hugh Grant and Nigel Le Valliant, plus Lavinia Bertram, Graham Chinn, Terence Hardiman, Tracy Blackender, Andrew Wilde, James Garbutt, Vera Jakob, Jenny Bolt and Noel Coleman. This is from my own collection, and was originally a one off drama shown on the anthology series Storyboard in 1985. It is a part mystery/ part drama series, but this episode feels more the former at times. It only ran for one series in 1986, and as such has rarely been repeated since on TV.
