Battle for Inspector West

Roger West is a home-loving, hard-hitting and very human policeman. Nicknamed 'Handsome' West, he's more than just a pretty face - he's also Scotland Yard's youngest, smartest detective and a crime-solving supremo. Six of his adventures were dramatised for radio between 1967 and 1971, starring real-life husband and wife Patrick Allen and Sarah Lawson as Roger and Janet West. Unfortunately only three of the six dramas survive, all of which are included here.
