6. Concerning Mr Zola
Can a lingering scent provide a vital clue to the latest murder? The suave sleuth's rebooted 1946 mystery. Stars Crawford Logan.
A lingering scent of perfume may give a vital clue to the latest murder.
Another intriguing case for BBC radio's smoothest sleuth and his glamorous wife.
Crawford Logan and Gerda Stevenson stars in Francis Durbridge's rebooted 1946 mystery thriller.
The original series wasn't saved in the BBC archive and scripts for episodes 1, 2 and 6 were lost.
Luckily our colleague in Norwegian radio discovered a complete set of scripts in Oslo!
So using the original incidental music, sound effects and vintage microphones - all ten parts of Paul Temple and the Gregory Affair have been recreated.
Paul Temple …. Crawford Logan
Steve …. Gerda Stevenson
Sir Graham Forbes …. Gareth Thomas
Inspector Vosper …. Michael MacKenzie
Edward Day …. Nick Underwood
Kay Wiseman …. Meg Fraser
Peter Davos …. Richard Greenwood
Madison …. Robin Laing
Zola …. Greg Powrie
Producer: Patrick Rayner
Original series first broadcast on the BBC Light Programme in December 1946.
Recreated and first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in August 2013.
