A CASE FOR Dr. MORELLEOLD TIME RADIO - 1 CD-ROM - 13 mp3 - Total Playtime: 6:19:46This is a vintage radio drama series about a criminal psychologist, Dr Morelle, who solves murder cases which are too complex for the police. Morelle is played by English film actor Cecil Parker, and is alternately helped and hindered in his investigations by his secretary Miss Frayle, played by film actress Sheila Sim.The series was created by writer Ernest Dudley, who conceived the character during an air raid in 1942. The curmudgeonly and sarcastic psychologist is thought to be based on Hollywood actor and producer Erich von Stroheim; and as played by Cecil Parker the character certainly has a touch of the aristocrat about him.In a nod to the Baker Street residence of Sherlock Holmes, Morelle's London office is situated at 221b Harley Street. Most of the stories begin there, with his long-suffering secretary patiently enduring her employer's endless sarcasm.Each of the stories is self-contained, with Morelle solving the mystery in the final scene. Unusually for the time, he solves each case not by hunting for clues in the manner of Sherlock Holmes, but instead through a psychiatrist's insight into the personality of the killer: using his professional experience to consider the suspects, in order to determin which of them matches the deduced personality of the murderer.Thirteen episodes were broadcast on the BBC Light Programme in 1957, aired weekly from April 23rd to July 16th.EPISODES LISTA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-04-23 01 Alarm CallA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-04-30 02 Confession of GuiltA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-05-07 03 Threat to KillA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-05-14 04 The SleepwalkerA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-05-21 05 The BlackmailerA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-05-28 06 Voice in the NightA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-06-04 07 The WillA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-06-11 08 Act of ViolenceA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-06-18 09 The Black RubyA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-06-25 10 The Wedding DressA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-07-02 11 The GamblerA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-07-09 12 The Poisoned HeirA Case for Dr Morelle 1957-07-16 13 Mr XDelivered in a plastic square corner clear clamshell.Be Aware: MP3 CD WILL NOT PLAY IN REGULAR CD PLAYERS.
