- A Case Of Spirits
by Peter Lovesey
Another case for Victorian detective Sergeant Cribb.
In well-to-do London Victorian society, Spiritualism is all the rage. Thefts follow two seances and Cribb is drafted in to make discreet enquiries. He suspects the young medium. Peter Brand , but Brand's mysterious death means that other agencies are at work.
Originally aired in 1985
Thanks for listening to The Great British Radio Play - Розваги
My mother was a 'medium". Her results were amazingly accurate, provided you ignored all the times she was wrong!
... MY MOTHER IS A MAXI-MUM 😂😂😂
My mum was an extra large, she believed in spirits too.
Hahaha
Y'all are funny!😂
I needed a laugh.. THANKS GUYS
I love this stuff, you're doing a grand job! Thank you for the time you put in, we are lucky to have people like you who know how to share things like this. Thanks again
Thank you for your shows/podcasts. They are much appreciated.
Aloha from Kapakalua, Maui
Cribb was a great series, saw it on T.V. 30+ years ago when I was sick. Managed to get a couple of books some years later. Looking forward to more:-)
Cribb was played by Alan Dobie .
One of that generation of great theatre trained actors who appeared on our TV screens all through the 70s - 2000s.
Too many to name and sadly so many have passed away .! Impossible to replace....
Yes I saw it too ! GREAT SERIES it was !
With William Simmson I think his name was , who later became the great constable in "Heartbeat" ! Now dead allas R.I.P.
@user-mp1bh1oh7i William Simons also played Inspector Fox in the Inspector Alleyn mystery series. Excellent actor.
Thank you for posting. I enjoyed it😊
We enjoyed and had fun with this one.
Thank you for the upload😊
Many thanks for the uploads. I have only just discovered your channel. 👻🥂
Me too!!!
Recommend the “unexpected guest”. Magnificent 💥💥💥💥
That was fun. Thank you! 😊
Thank you.
Great upload. Ignore the critics 😏
Genius!
I argree
Does anyone know where I can find a copy of the lovely barrel organ music at the end. I beleve it's called " My heart at thy sweet voice"
The best case of spirits i know is GIN 😂
Is the introduction a computer generated voice? If not, it certainly sounds like one.
Thank you for commenting.
yes the intro is computer generated from text to speech. (i typed it and the computer said it)
Rest assured, the rest of the production are real voices by real actors and actresses. I have only just started this channel and needed a bit of help from the robots.
As soon as my Microphone arrives in the post the introductions will be presented by a human. a.k.a. me.
I hope that this doesn't effect your listening enjoyment.
I hope to bring you and all of the other listeners, all of the classic radio dramas over the last decades
thanks once again for commenting, its people like you who can help make this the perfect channel for original British radio plays.
I enjoy your content, but I find the computer voice at the beginning of your videos to be highly annoying.
The computerised intro is barely thirty seconds, enjoy the play ☺️☺️
@@artmoss6889 why bother getting ' highly annoyed' about that.
@@stevec2993Things annoy people. I'm sure that there are things that annoy you that don't affect me. In this instance, someone raised the issue and I added my 2 cents worth to give feedback to the content creator. I always prefer a real person's voice to a computer, and in this video, the computer voice was more inauthentic and artificial than most.
Where are the credits?
2 pints of beer please. That will be 4pence.
If you insist on having a dreadful intro and outro, at least ensure that they are spliced in correctly without chopping them off mid word. IMO they are superfluous. But I do enjoy the content so, thank you for that :)
Im really sorry Chris. your right, i have only just noticed that the intros cut out sometimes. it was a rendering issue where the software couldn't catch up with the audio. thanks for highlighting this. i hope it hasn't spoiled the main content. i have just switched software regarding the audio so hopefully it will fix it. as for the dreadful intro/outro ....i will get there in the end.
It’s annoying
Feel free to fast forward 10 seconds to the main content if you do not like the intro. I do apologise. Thanks for commenting anyway.
What’s annoying?
@@valerief1231 Nothing, someone always has something to whinge about don't they? LOL
This faux way of speach is totally wrong. The Victorians were almost conteperry with the way we converse today. Oh, blimey governor! Luv a duck, ect is totally rubbish. My own grandparents were born in the 1880s and spoke exactly the same as I do today. HOLLYWOOD has alot to do with this nonsense. To think that melodramatic ways of speaking were the norm is just plane silly. Cor blimey me!
London has many different dialects, for example those in the East End spoke (& speak) quite differently from those in South London. I agree that the accents used to pass as "working class British" in Hollywood films are lamentable, especially the old ones. Allowance also has to be made with how language changes over time, so that some expressions and words used in the Victorian era aren't familiar to us today, so not really contemporary.
