Inspector Dover - By Joyce Porter - BBC production

Posted by Peter Gordon on May 31, 2014 at 5:10pm

These amusing stories star Kenneth Cranham.

"Dover was obese, lazy, unhygienic (the only man in the Metropolitan Police service with underarm dandruff) and bordering on corrupt. MacGregor was keen, clean and ferociously ambitious. However, on the rare occasions he was able to put aside plate, pint-glass and cigarettes long enough to concentrate, Dover usually saw the answer first."

      Just finished and many thanks for the 'Inspector' set.  Quite magnificent.  Am I right in thinking, because I haven't yet been able to open the files, that the 'Inspector West' series are in book form.  I have 'Battle for Inspector West', Inspector West at Bay' and 'Inspector West at Home' as BBC productions.  I can upload them if anyone is interested.

      A Beauty for Inspector West is an abrdiged BBC reading. It was never produced as adrama by the BBC.  All the rest are BBC dramas. If you are having trouble opening the files, that's a different issue. What happens when you try?

      BTW - all of these are either 32 or 64 kbps files, so if you have better encodes, I'd be grateful for them.
