love these old BBC plays - thankyou

Synopsis: Some church relics are to be moved from a small town church to a neighboring cathedral. There has been considerable strife over the decision from competing interests. The relics suddenly disappear and an investigation begins. In the course of the search much more sinister secrets are uncovered.

The synopsis helped me to decide to listen. Thank you!

My third visit, to this play. As always, perfect. I am lucky, too. I always forget the whole play, till I hear the end!! 😝

Thank you for your time

A most enjoyable play and, yes, a very nice twist at the end.

Brilliant story and just right for a snowy dark November night. Thank you 🙏

Another good play. Much appreciated.

Another fantastic story and reading

Thank you. Radio drama at its best

Totally enjoyed this story it’s full of jealousy love and a church relic that goes missing.

A good adventure with a balanced ending. I enjoyed this. Thankyou.

Thanks for the synopsis! Saves time and annoyance!

Most enjoyable. Thanks for these plays. So much more enjoyable than TV. 😊

Really enjoyed this play thank you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇬🇧

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you!

Excellent Thanks so much.

Nice to hear the late Edward Kelsey voicing his prototype "Joe Grundy" character in this Saturday Night Theatre drama production from 12th December, 1970 (source Genome). Also features two other Archers actors Patricia Gallimore and Margot Boyd, plus John Bentley..... a thoroughly good murder mystery with a surprising denouement. Thanks for the upload.☺️

Thanks, I've just been distracted by whether we had Jethro Tull or Joe Grundy as the grumpy verger!

I've been surprised by quite how many of these plays Patricia Gallimore appeared in. And I've heard Edward Kelsey a few times too. He always sounds like Joe Grundy, but that's no surprise. :-)

@@stewartmcardle8149 You're right. I'm really impressed by her. I heard about half of this play ages ago, but don't think I can have finished it, because the ending when I listened to it all just now, was unfamiliar. It's interesting: it started out as a straight drama, then murder mystery, but with Edward Kelsey doing his Joe Grundy impersonation :-) it was turning into a bit of a comedy thriller. However, it became suitably "dark" towards the end. Very good overall, and thank you Chesterton Radio for uploading it.

Very good show🙏🏻

A fun twist at the end. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I did NOT see that ending coming 😂

What a disappointment! LOL Great listen, as always.

Interesting. Sounded a bit like a Goon show at times but none the worse for that. Nice bit of village scandal.

Excellent escapism and entertainment for during lockdown. These plays are refreshingly free of the agendas of modern BBC plays which force on us a debate about the latest political correctness topic.

@@suspendeddisbelief401 Well, they were when this was made. It's a bit different now. The snobbery has become almost a bit inverted, although I don't think that there is any doubt that The Establishment is still in charge at the BBC.

Why no synopsis??!
