SYNOPSIS
The Hollywood actor Peter Falk, whose name became synonymous with the TV character Columbo  played the part for 35 years. In a program first heard in 2007, crime-writer Mark Billingham delves into the mystery that was one of the small screen's greatest detectives.

The raincoat, the cigar, the spluttering convertible car, the villain's deed in the first scene and the final "...just one more thing". The American TV detective series Columbo was a literature inspired, award winning, rule breaking television original.

Billingham tracks down the unusual suspects who made it possible including star Peter Falk, creator William Link, writer Steven Bochco, director Jonathan Demme and guest star villain Robert Vaughn.

Producer: Peter McHugh.

Hard not to love Columbo- perhaps the most eccentric character created for tv. Cheers for this.

Big time Boo-boo

I have messed around and deleted the ‘S’ folder from the library.  I am in the process of restoring it but it will take several days.  I’ll get Saturday Night Theatre up as soon as possible. jimb

To All Library Users

I have made a boo-boo somehow and accidentally moved all the ‘S’ Files to the bottom of the ‘R’ folder.  Until I can figure out a way to fix this, this is where you can find them. Anyone with a solution, mail me off-list. Thanks jimb
