5.0 out of 5 stars Open your ears to a private eye., 24 Dec 2004
By John Austin "austinjr@bigpond.net.au" (Kangaroo Ground, Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
When our eyes are otherwise occupied, or even closed, and we have a liking for a good thriller or murder mystery, there is nothing better than listening to one or other of the Paul Temple cases reissued from the BBC archives. At least four components account for this. They were written by Francis Durbridge, they were produced by Martyn C Webster, the theme music was "Coronation Scot" by Vivian Ellis, and the part of Steve, Paul Temple's wife, was played for more than twenty years by Marjorie Westbury. Durbridge kept to a reliable formula: a mystery somehow comes to the notice of journalist/writer Paul Temple, and solving it will bring numerous visitors to his Mayfair flat, including Scotland Yard personnel, and involve Paul and his wife Steve in numerous lucky escapes from drowning, bombs, decapitation, kidnapping, poisoning, car crashes and being shot. Sounds absurd? Well, the theme music will somehow carry you willingly and innocently into this elegant but dangerous world and the high production values established by producer Martyn C Webster will stamp it with quality. Much of the magic derives from the work of Marjorie Westbury. This diminutive lady, already in her 60s when "The Geneva" Case" was first broadcast, convinces you that Steve is a vivacious young woman of about half that age. Her every word, and every inflexion will enable you to "see" the scene, "touch" her feelings, and believe in it all.

The case Paul Temple investigates in "The Geneva Mystery" is the apparent death in Geneva of the brother-in-law of a wealthy financier, Maurice Lonsdale. Mr Lonsdale's sister, presumably a widow, becomes increasingly certain that her husband is still alive. The Temples travel to Switzerland, encountering further drama and mystery when crossing the Channel, in a wagon-lit express, and when having a sleigh ride.

About ten radio dramatizations of the Paul Temple mysteries have survived in the BBC archives. This is the second last, dating from 1965.

5.0 out of 5 stars unswitchoffable, 14 May 2002
This review is from: Paul Temple and the Geneva Mystery: BBC Radio 4 Full-cast Dramatisation (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio Cassette)
After weeks of calendar crossing I was delighted to finally get my hands on Paul Temple and the Geneva Mystery and by Timothy it's another cracker.
Paul and Steve are off to Geneva to confirm or deny the death or disappearance of Carl Milbourne who was surely "Too Young To Die".
I had intended to try and prolong the thrill by listening to an episode a night but after the first bars of Coronation Scott transports you into Durbridge World, I defy anyone not to devour this in one sitting.

Lock the doors and take the phone off the hook!.

4.0 out of 5 stars Francis Durbridge Classic, 5 Nov 2002
By A Customer
Another fantastic all cast radio dramatisation of a classic book. This crime thriller will leave you guessing until the end with it's twists and turns and will leave you searching for more from the late Francis Durbridge. The radio cast have done a tremendous job in transporting the listener back to the days of the Paul Temple. A must for all fans of Crime and Thriller.
