Özet

Full-cast adaptations of five of Peter Lovesey's acclaimed novels featuring Victorian detective Sergeant Cribb and his assistant Constable Thackeray

Tough, shrewd and determined, Sergeant Cribb is a stalwart of Scotland Yard's newly formed Criminal Investigation Department. Aided and abetted by the loyal, stolid Constable Thackeray, he pounds the fog-shrouded streets of Victorian London, tracking down murderers and bringing them to justice.

Waxwork - 1888. Sentenced to death for murder, Miriam Cromer awaits her fate in Newgate Prison. She has confessed that blackmail drove her to kill, but a photograph sent anonymously to the Home Office reveals new evidence and Sgt Cribb must investigate. Starring Brian Cox as Sergeant Cribb and John Cater as Thackeray.

Swing, Swing Together - 1889, and Jerome K Jerome's bestselling novel Three Men in a Boat has sparked a craze for rowing on the River Thames. Out for a midnight swim, Harriet Shaw notices an unlikely boating threesome - and when a body is discovered, the trio become murder suspects, and Harriet the key witness... Barry Foster stars as Sergeant Cribb, with John Cater as Thackeray.

A Case of Spirits - Spiritualism is all the rage among well-to-do Victorian Londoners, but when thefts follow two séances, Cribb is called in. He suspects the young medium, Peter Brand, but Brand's mysterious death means he must look further afield. Starring Barry Foster as Sergeant Cribb and John Cater as Thackeray.

Wobble to Death - During a six-day speed-walking race, one of the pedestrian competitors is found dead, poisoned by strychnine. Enter Cribb and Thackeray, who discover murder is afoot. Timothy Bateson stars as Sergeant Cribb, with William Eedle as Thackeray.

Abracadaver - Investigating a series of 'accidents' in the Victorian music-halls, the indomitable detective duo uncover the dark side of these popular entertainment palaces when a murder takes place. Starring Frank Windsor as Cribb and John Hollis as Thackeray.

Due to the different ages of the recordings in this collection, the sound quality may vary.

I do enjoy the Sgt Cribb stories. This is a nice full cast radio version. Some good performances.

Good dramatization

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.

the first story is good. unfortunately it's downhill from there with a change of actors and very poor sound quality on the 3rd and 4th story.

the first story is the best

what a shame! Great storyline and plot, good acting too, but why change the actors for the main characters??? Also with it being such a high-class of actors why such poor production and recording? Brian Cox is a brilliant actor and was perfect for the main role, so you become relaxed and begin to accept traits, then suddenly in the next story there's a new actor playing the role and putting their spin on the character. Then it happens again plus the sound quality dramatically reduces. Totally ruined a brilliant series. Please audible do better checks on recordings

disappointing on many levels

The stories and performance were varied but overall quite good. However, the sound quality was pretty poor in most of the performances, with some recordings having what seemed like another show being recorded in the background and others definitely showing their age. I'd reccomend not listening on headphones as this seems to accentuate the dodgy sound quality.

Good but poor sound quality

I was really looking forward to these, but only the first two stories were in reasonable sound. I gave up when I was having to decipher the two different soundtracks, which made it very difficult to follow the plot.
I know it says sound recordings may vary, but not to this degree. Had to return in the end. To frustrating to listen to.
