Bernard Braden stars in an original 1940 full-cast production of the very first Paul Temple adventure, plus bonus extra features.
Francis Durbridge (1912 - 1998) was an English playwright and
author. In 1938 he created the character Paul Temple, a crime
novelist and detective. With Steve Trent, a Fleet Street journalist
and later his wife, Temple solved numerous crimes in the glamorous
world of the leisured middle classes, first on radio, then in films
and, from 1969 to 1971, in a television series. In addition to the
Paul Temple series, Durbridge wrote other mysteries for radio and
television, many of which were also produced for German and Italian
television and radio.
Durbridge also forged a successful career as a writer for the stage
with seven plays, the last of which, Sweet Revenge, was written in
1991. He also wrote 43 novels, many of which were adapted from his
scripts, sometimes with the help of others.
