A Dinner Date with Death

Regie Eric Fawcett
30. Oktober 1950    26 Min.TV-Film
Considered to be the earliest surviving example of a British play-to-screen drama, this served as a pilot for an anthology series called ‘The Man Who Walks by Night’ where a Silver Shroud type figure tells a different tale of mystery and suspense each week. It was approved of generally, but a freeze on funding brought it to a premature end. In this entry, a wealthy man who’s made many enemies, including his soon to be ex-wife, his ex-partner in crime and the son of a business partner he drove to suicide. He invites them to dinner to tempt fate, the sheer thrill enthralling him. But will he survive?
