"The World of Tim Frazer", shown under the banner "Francis Durbridge Presents...", was the longest-running BBC serial of the early Sixties, and one of the most successful.

In this one, read by "Buffy" and "Little Britain" star Anthony Head, Frazer becomes involved in another difficult and dangerous case. When special agent Leo Salinger is killed by a fast car in Amsterdam, Tim Frazer is sent over to trail the attractive young woman who was at the wheel. Was it a genuine accident? So it seems until Frazer returns to London and encounters a body instead of an evening date...The case grows more complicated at every turn. What sinister implications lie behind an innocent bulb catalogue? What is the mystery of the metronome carried by the dead man? It is only Frazer's second assignment - is it going to be his last? From the creator of popular radio detective Paul Temple comes this exciting adventure featuring undercover agent Tim Frazer, read by Anthony Head. |
