About this listen

This episode of the Adventures of Nero Wolfe first aired on March 9, 1951.

Nero Wolfe, featured in 46 novels, movies, and television series, first came to radio on April 7, 1943. The great character actor Sydney Greenstreet played him from 1950-51. Wolfe, the "gargantuan gourmet", solved crimes with an attention to detail that rivaled the great Sherlock Holmes. The overweight detective of Rex Stout's novels refused to leave his elegant brownstone on business, sending his wisecracking, two-fisted assistant, Archie Goodwin, out to do his legwork. This peculiar private investigator preferred tending to his beloved orchids over solving crimes. In fact, the only reason he worked at all was to keep up his lavish lifestyle.

. A sneak thief asks Wolfe for help when he's accused of murdering Mrs Avery March and taking her diamonds. The fat detective reduces from home sending Archie, as usual, to do the investigative work.
First broadcast in 1 951, this production has Sydney Greenstreet playing Nero Wolfe, Harry Bartell as Archie Goodwin and a full support cast. The soundtrack is old but still acceptable, Archie is good but Wolfe is given a dreadful giggle which is totally inappropriate. It's still a fun listen.

"Who killed Mrs.March?"
