Dixon is accompanied by PC Clyde, to attend the house of Mrs Binney, who's had stones through her windows, it turns out the landlords are trying to force her out of her home, a place that's set to be demolished, to make way for a new shopping centre.
A fairly interesting storyline, one that would have been very relevant back in 62. Not one to set the pulses racing I fear, but nicely made and acted, Fay Compton did a fine job as Mrs Binney.
It's a bit of a plodder, very low on crime, very high on socialising. The plot is interesting enough, but the direction it goes in is so drab, way too talky.
From the limited number of episodes, it seems that the show focused very much on current social issues, and I imagine in the early sixties, that there were plenty of eviction notices given, as The City underwent massive regeneration.
Quite awful really, imagine being told that you were being made to leave your own home,
I wouldn't mind a flat in Wembley.
Bit of a sleeping pill.
5/10.
