Rumpole and the Borrowed Dog | Old Bailey Stories

Tonight, Horace Rumpole is volunteered by She Who Must Be Obeyed to mind a neighbour’s terrier… and promptly discovers that borrowed dogs, like borrowed certainty, have teeth. When a gentle dog-walker is charged with a smart-flat burglary and a missing tin of antique coins, the police call it “open and shut” — helped along by a suspicious canine sighting in a polished lobby.
But at the Old Bailey, Rumpole prefers proof to prejudice. A wrong collar tag, a mysterious master entry, and a family secret begin to unravel a respectable story that will not bear cross-examination.
Switch off the lights, pour a modest glass of Château Thames Embankment, and settle in for a dry, witty London courtroom mystery where the truth turns out to be the only thing that will not stay buried under the bed.

Old Bailey Stories is your home for classic, BBC-style legal mysteries told in rich, audiobook-ready prose. Step into the smoky corridors of the Old Bailey, the gossip of barristers’ chambers, and the quiet dramas behind closed doors—where a single contradiction can change a verdict and a dry remark can cut deeper than a closing speech.
On this channel you’ll find:
Courtroom whodunits and scandal-led cases inspired by Britain’s great legal storytelling tradition
Witty, character-driven narration with warm irony, period detail, and London atmosphere
Long-form episodes designed for relaxed listening—late nights, commutes, or a glass of claret after hours
New stories explore reputation, class, ambition, and justice—without gore, without melodrama, and always with that timeless, sardonic British touch.
If you enjoy clever cross-examinations, sharp dialogue, and mysteries that unravel through evidence rather than noise, you’re in the right place.
