LOST PLAYS
We are looking for the following plays: anything by John Latham (especially 'The Spinning Room of Drunken Lovers') and the 1961 play "The Wages of Fear".

We are also looking for the final three Inspector West serials which went out on R4. Serial no. 4, "A Beauty for Inspector West", Tx 13.7.1970-24.8.1970 was immediately followed by no. 5 "Inspector West Cries Wolf", Tx 31.8.1970-5.10.1970, both on Monday evenings at 1930 hrs., and the last serial of all, "Inspector West Makes Haste" was aired at 1725 hrs. on Saturdays from 28.8.1971-5-10-1971. Part 6 of this is in the BBC sound archive, but despite all our efforts, no complete copies of serials 4, 5 or 6 have ever been discovered.

If you can help, please get in touch.
