Synopsis

MAN AT THE TOP
Hardy (PETER FIRTH), a down-on-his-lack young seaman, without money or a ship, gets caught up in a dockland murder. He turns for help to his one friend, lovely Diane (RACHEL DAVIES) — a shapely prostitute. She knows the whereabouts of the only man powerful enough to help him-the elusive, mysterious Man at the Top.

PICTURE OF A PLACE
Hazel(JESSIE MATTHEWS) is an eccentric widow living in a remote farmhouse. An antique dealer calls at her door and offers to buy some of her furniture at ridiculous prices — then she shows him a picture she had found in the attic.

VICIOUS CIRCLE
When old Mrs Grady (SIOBHAN McKENNA) returns home unexpectedly she surprises Rex (PATRICK FIELD) who is trying to burgle her house, and he falls and damages his ankle. While treating his injury Mrs Grady persuades Rex to give up his life of crime and in return she won't call the police. Rex pretends to agree but doesn't fool Mrs Grady.
