Cribb “The Choir That Wouldn´t Sing” 1981 HD

Alan Dobie stars in this highly acclaimed classic series written by award winning crime writer Peter Lovesey. Known for his wry sense of humour, Cribb is the backbone of Scotland Yard´s newly formed Criminal Investigation Department aided and sometimes hindered, by the faithful Constable Thackeray.

“The Choir That Wouldn´t Sing”

Cribb and Thackeray go to the country to investigate the death of unpopular Captain Allbright who died as he was about to change his will in favour of birds' egg collectors to the detriment of his ward. The captain was running through woods at night and fell into a gravel pit. He sang in the local choir but the other members certainly aren't singing from the same hymn-sheet as far as Cribb is concerned. They claim to have been at choir practice but there are inconsistencies in their stories which lead Cribb to suspect a conspiracy.
