The Queen Of Crime

from Attaboy Clarence · host Adam Roche

This week, murder’s in the air as we take a look at two Golden Age examples of Agatha Christie movie adaptations! Firstly, Charles Laughton is attempting to determine the guilt of Tyrone Power in Billy Wilder’s stunning 1957 screen take on Witness For The Prosecution. And then it’s sleuthing ahoy with Margaret Rutherford as Miss Marple, in 1961’s Murder, She Said! Radio entertainment comes in the form of an Agatha Christie double-bill; Orson Welles plays Hercule Poirot in The Murder Of Roger Ackroyd, and the Molle Mystery Theatre adapt Witness For The Prosecution. There’s music from Nat King Cole and Louis Armstrong, and another chance for you to see if you can guess… Who The Hell Is That Hollywood Legend? Learn more about your ad choices.

Delafield Lina When the role of ‘Lady Superintendent’ becomes available at the Commercial and Technical College for South West England, the calm and capable Pauline Marchrose is the successful applicant. This is good news for Sir Julian, the college director, who greatly admires her diligence and ability. Mark Easter, Sir Julian’s agent, feels admiration for her too, which rapidly becomes romantic attraction. But Mark already has a wife, albeit in name only. And Sir Julian’s wife, Lady Edna Rossiter, discovers that Pauline Marchrose is the same woman who jilted her cousin Clarence after he was paralysed in an accident. A manipulative,self-righteous and interfering woman, she has little interest in the truth of the story, and she uses her position and influence to start a whispering campaign against Pauline. In a small community this soon creates an atmosphere of suspicion and tension which threatens her whole future. - Summary by Helen Taylor
