The Beiderbecke Affair - Series 1 (3 Volume Boxed Set)
An amalgam of breezy comedy, mystery, provincial politics, and music--specifically, the inimitable sounds of jazz legend Bix Beiderbecke. This offbeat thriller is the first of a series by Alan Plater. Schoolteachers Trevor and Jill decide to hunt down the sales clerk who sold them a sub-par recording of Bix's best. Their sleuthing leads them down many trails, always to the background music of Beiderbecke. Over 5 hours on 4 cassettes or 3 DVDs.
