The Weather For Murder (Full Drama)

Broadcast: Wednesday 18th April 1962
The spinster Pierce sisters, Elsie and Sarah, want to expand their Tea Shop and are looking to purchase the plot next door which is owned by Nora Everett, the second wife of one of their most popular customers, Victor Everett. When Sarah has a chance to sit down with Nora, she offers her £300 for the lot but Nora wants £1,200, which is way beyond what the sisters could afford.
The following day, while Victor is away at a Board Meeting in London, Hillside Cottage, the Everett's home, goes up in flames. After the fire is put out, Nora's body is found in the remains. After the Coroner's Inquest rules the fire an accident, Elsie, an aspiring crime writer, begins to investigate the fire to see what facts she would need to change so that she can turn it into a plot for the mystery novel she plans to write. But Elsie soon finds that she won't need to change a thing ...

I like the story. Still makes you wonder at the end.

[@Wendyj55]

Yeah, I was left feeling maybe there should've been a sequel (or series) showing how really it was the dastardly Victor wot dunnit. But I probably haven't listened closely enough to the detail ... will have to listen again!!

[@ajcbng8289]

Really enjoyable. I can't help thinking that if this were written closer to our present, it wouldn't have had such a happy ending. I actually wondered for a moment, whether it was over, when it was over. 😂

Awesome sauce!! Thank you berry berry much😊❤😂

[@-Reagan]

Is it horrible of me that I am only 16 minutes into this story and I already know whom I hope gets the proverbial axe?
It’s quite good, already! Thanks for uploading this Edit: Lovely and somehow wholesome, despite being a murder mystery. I miss endings like this. I wish they made more of them.
