WhiteHall 1212, Vol. 1 Audiobook (Free)

Whitehall 1212 was the well-known phone number for Scotland Yard-the head office of the London Metropolitan Law enforcement Force-and also an exciting true crime crisis from your golden age of radio!

Created and directed simply by Wyllis Cooper (the creator of Lamps Away and Quiet Please make sure to), Whitehall 1212 was a crime drama that shown about NBC from 1951 until 1952. It was hosted by Key Superintendent John Davidson, curator from the Black Museum, Scotland Yard’s repository of loss of life. Like the Dark Museum, about WhiteHall 1212, Vol. 1 starring Orson Welles, Whitehall 1212 dramatized true-crime cases resolved by Scotland Backyard. The announcer cued up each episode with, “These are the true tales, the unvarnished facts, just as they occurred, reenacted for you by an all-British cast. Only the names from the participants have for apparent reasons been transformed. The stories are offered the full assistance of Scotland Lawn.”

The researcher for the series was Percy Hoskins, the principle crime reporter for London Daily Telegraph. Hoskins was the newspaperman who had originally reported on some of the crimes getting dramatized. Enjoy sixteen episodes from this superb crime series-all accurate stories from Scotland Backyard!
