Clouds of Witness

The book is moved from 1926 to 1928, which results in an anachronism – Lord Peter meets briefly with the US Ambassador in Buckingham Palace and talks with the King, but at that point the King was actually desperately ill and recuperating from a bout of septicaemia.

The novel was adapted as a television miniseries in 1972, starring Ian Carmichael as Lord Peter and Glyn Houston as Bunter.

Lifeline Theatre
