A Full Cast Dramatisation.
Ian Carmichael is the personification of Dorothy L. Sayers charming investigator, Lord Peter Wimsey, in these two thrilling BBC Radio full-cast dramatisations.
'Five Red Herrings': When Sandy Campbell's body is found at the foot of a cliff near the small town of Kircdubright, the local constabulary are convinced that the argumentative painter is a victim of a tragic accident. But when the intelligent sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey turns up, the hunt begins for an ingenious killer. Faced with six men, all of whom have a motive for murder, the aristocratic amateur sleuth must deduce which are the five red herrings and which has blood on his hands.
In 'Murder Must Advertise', copywriter Victor Dean falls to his death on the stairs of Pym's Advertising Agency, but no one seems to mind. That is, until Lord Peter joins the firm incognito as Dean's replacement and starts asking questions which lead him into a network of blackmailers, drug pushers and one of the most deadly plots of crime fiction. Before the crimes can be solved and the truth revealed, more people must die.
