A one-hour anthology television series of one-off contemporary and classic dramas produced by the BBC.

Two female ex-convicts try to set up an employment agency.

When John Fielding, MP, disappeared on the way home to his country estates he was, perhaps, cracking the first good joke of his life. Sergeant Jennings, left to pursue the investigation, finds little humour or help amongst Fielding's friends or family. Only Isobel could believe that Fielding might have wanted to disappear.
