The Governess

Will Sergant Drewd's suspicion of guilt be proved when a governess is accused of murder?

It all began with the theft of some sugar mice, which was hardly a crime to interest Sergeant Drewd.

But it was followed by something rather more serious - murder.

With Angela Pleasence as Harriet Unwin and James Bolam as Sergeant Drewd.
