Slight Case of Murder
[}{Ow David Conway and his friend Pat Manners become involved by chance in a complication of skullduggery that includes transport robbery, blackmail and a touch of murder is toid in The Devil to Pay, an Edward Jf. Mason thriller which will start from 2YA at 8.0: p.m. on Wednesday, July 1. Mr, Conway and Miss Manners find that the deeper the plot gets the ‘more they become involved in suspicious situations, and listeners will follow them through six action-packed episodes before they emerge "in the clear." The Devil to Pay was produced in the BBC Birmingham studios, where a number of well-known BBC plays first went on the air. (It was at Birmingham before the war that Paul Temple was launched on his adventurous career.) The principal parts are played by Peter Wilde, who had his first broadcasting chance when serving with the R.A.F. in the Middle East during the war and since 1946 has acted in many Birmingham productions, and Peggy Hassard, who (like Peter Wilde) has played lead in a previous Edward J. Mason serial and has had wide experience in radio acting.
