Sergio is joined by author and critic Mike Ripley to look at a tale of two tigers, or rather, two versions of The Tiger in the Smoke: the original 1952 novel by Margery Allingham, featuring her sleuth Albert Campion; and its film noir adaptation from 1956 that, despite being mostly very faithful, chose to completely eliminate her recurring protagonist.
We also look at the BBC TV series Campion (1989-1990), based on Allingham's novels and starring Peter Davison in the title role (and Mike's "controversial" contribution to that show), which is currently available to view in the UK on BBC iPlayer: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p0hqd8lh/campion
In addition, Mike tells us about his Campion continuation novels, authorised by the Allingham estate, to coincide with the release of his twelfth book in the series, Mr Campion's Christmas.
