A wickedly witty small-town whodunit where respectability hides deadly secrets.

Description:
Step into Colin Watson’s beloved Flaxborough—a seemingly quiet English market town—where intrigue simmers beneath a veneer of civility. When newspaper proprietor Marcus Gwill is found electrocuted at the foot of a pylon, Inspector Purbright suspects more than mere accident.

This BBC Saturday Night Theatre adaptation of Coffin, Scarcely Used delivers clever dialogue, dark humor, and a twisting plot that exposes small-town hypocrisy. Perfect for fans of classic British crime fiction, Old Time Radio drama, and Chesterton Radio’s curated mysteries.
