AbstractHistoryArchive Description

According to contemporary reviews in The Times, 'It has two subjects–the fight against disease in India, and the end of individualism among the British Raj. Mr. MacCormick relates these themes by taking as his central figure a doctor who, after struggling hopelessly against epidemics, comes at length to join a Government hospital.'

      Anthology drama series made for the BBC between 1950 and 1959.

      The episodes suffered badly during the BBC's purge of its archives in the 1970s, and little of the original series remains.

      In addition, for the first three years (March 1950 - February 1953), the show was aired live, and so no recordings from those years were ever made.
