Alibi For A Judge by Henry Cecil and Felicity Douglas with Basil Dawson
A BBC Radio adaptation by John Tydeman of the 1965 stage play by Henry Cecil and Felicity Douglas with Basil Dawson based on Cecil's novel of the same name published in 1960.
Mr. Justice Carstairs is a High Court judge...as well as a chronic worrier and extremely conscientious. In a recent case, he sentenced a man to ten years imprisonment; however, his conscience begins to prick him about the way in which he conducted the trial and that the alibi given by the defendant's wife may in fact be true.
Mr. Justice Carstairs is determined to do something about the case and takes the unprecedented step of trying to overrule his own judgement while encountering resistance from all sides. Matters get really complicated when, in trying to prove the man's innocence, he becomes convinced of his own guilt ...
