Series Description:
|
|
|
|
Charles Paris, a mostly unemployed actor who is thrown into detective
|
|
work, is the creation of Simon Brett. Mr. Brett authored seventeen
|
|
Charles Paris stories, starting with the first, "Cast, In Order Of
|
|
Disappearance", in 1975. He was involved with the BBC for over 20
|
|
years as a producer and produced the pilot for "The Hitchhiker's
|
|
Guide To The Galaxy" radio series. By 1979, Brett had become a full-
|
|
time writer.
|
|
|
|
The first two Charles Paris novels, "Cast, In Order Of Disappearance"
|
|
and "So Much Blood" were adapted for radio, each as a six episode
|
|
adventure serial and aired on BBC Radio Two. Both serials were
|
|
adapted by Simon Brett. The part of Charles Paris was played by
|
|
Francis Matthews who also played Paul Temple on BBC TV.
|
|

The "So Much Blood" serial was later repeated on BBC Radio Four,
|
|
starting on 23 August, 1989. A new, one hour version of "So Much
|
|
Blood" was heard on BBC Radio Four on 21 August, 1999.
