Nigel Stock as Inspector Millions
By Michael Robson
The Terrible Connexion, The first of two Victorian mysteries solved by 'the eccentric Inspector Millions', as the Radio Times has it.
Its companion-piece is The Instruments of Darkness
Both plays are self-consciously baroque and establish their own idiom, with formal dialogue, fanciful crimes and grotesque characters with outre names. Nigel Stock plays the inspector with great panache, relishing his lines and contriving to make him at once absurd and impressive. Anthony
Hall is his piping sidekick, the industrious Dynasty Surecard.
