Excellent.. Superbly written

Thoroughly enjoyed this play, well worth the listening.

Marvellous, oh what a tangled web we weave through no fault of our own, many thanks xx

Great story with an unusual conclusion. The great think about radio is we use our imagination to picture the events and characters.

Wonderful story. The Doctor was a truly kind and wonderful man. Great ending. Thank you.

Can never go wrong listening Peter Coke! Thank you

A lovely story and kept me entertained as I sewed my patchwork quilt. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Thank you for taking the time to upload these wonderful radio dramas. 😀

Marvellous ! What voices! What diction ! And a plot as ingenious as any of Dame Agathas. In fact , she may have even borrowed some elements of it ? Well worth looking out for Dr Thorndyke books in charity shops ! Intelligent, civilized entertainment of highest order.

PS. Admittedly there are gaping holes in plot but ....who cares ?!?

The ending is simply perfect! Thank you so much for your uploads!

Kept me anxious right up to the last word. Fantastic story.

Peter Coke in some other rôle than the hackneyed Paul Temple, showing some class. A beautifully wrought tale.

Brilliant and beautifully touching. Thank you

Oh I miss the days you could buy a mummy for a pound & take it home on the roof of a taxi 😏

Or an ancient sundial for £1 which would be worth thousands today. Oh those were the days!

Beautiful story!

It made me cry a little with relief at the happy ending. Great play.

Very good indeed!

Me too.

Really good on blustery October afternoon

Got to love it when a career criminal calls someone a "whippersnapper" during a fight!

Such a shame that Molly Hardwick's other Thorndyke adaptation for Saturday Night Theatre seems to be missing 🙁 It was 'Corpse In The Case' (9th June 1962) and based on Dr Thorndyke Intervenes.. This is tremendous though..

Really enjoyed that 👍

Excellent drama. Thank you for this download during covid-19 pandemic.

Outstanding in every way!

Wonderful and unexpected ending. Nice that there was a happy ending for a change.

Does this one feature Peter Coke? It sounds like him. Ah, goggled, and yes it is Peter Coke as Mr. Pottermack.

And Anthony Nicholls - of cult 60s. TV series - The Champions..!

An excellent play - however I'm concerned that the coroner did not catch on - it's a worry - given the age of the bones would have differed considerably.....

redemption is a beautiful thing!

Justice would seem to have been done.

I really enjoyed this, it was like a fairytale and it made me feel happy. Thank you 😊

Please, please people stop putting up spoilers.

Dental records were never requested and the finger nails of the mummy bore evidence of mummification. The inquest shaped the outcome of the inquiry based on acceptable evidence. I think I hv listened to too many of these wonderful Brit crime stories that I attempt to solve cases! Question. Why is the act of auctioning mortal remains is not seen as a crime of sacrilege at best and the mistreatment of mortal remains in the least. These ancient peoples should be left in eternal rest.

Perhaps you should attempt a murder mystery of your own ? ( Fictional I hasten to add..! )

Philip HEMA, This is fiction, but would you complain about the moving of a graveyard to build on, or an archialogoical dig in ancient cemeteries, or divers removing artifacts from sunken vessels declared a graveyard. I think even now let alone 60 years ago this is not so strange, for collectors/scientists.

Open all hours... didn't bring me here
