Fact Based Crime series (1951 - 52)

Vintage Tube Radio"Whitehall 1212" is the number of Scotland Yard, and the alarmed woman ringing the number of the show sets the situation.

Presenting some of the "most baffling cases" of the famed Scotland Yard is Chief Inspector John Davison, caretaker of the Yard's famed "Black Museum." Each artifact in the Black Museum has seen its own crime, whether just or premeditated. Now the simple objects are kept as sinister reminders of the actual events and deeds.

Wyllis Cooper, who had previously done the excellent thriller show Quiet Please, worked from research to write the scripts, which he then directed, using a cast of London-based actors. The results are polished, thrilling, factual crime drama.

For more fact based crime drama, see also: Black Museum, Dragnet, Tales of the Texas Rangers, and Unit 99.

    COMMENTS

    The format of this program is almost identical to that of Black Museum; both shows take the listener into Scotland Yard's "Black Museum",then build a true crime drama from one of the exhibits therein. The principle difference is that Whitehall 1212 is very British in its understated approach and avoids the somewhat overdramatic histrionics which Orson Welles brings to Black Museum. Both are thoroughly enjoyable, but my preference -perhaps because I am Canadian - is for the more restrained British program. I am glad to have both series available.
