| Description | Material in this sub-series is linked to Exton's adaptation of Ruth Rendell's Wolf to Slaughter, which was originally produced by TVS before the rights were transferred to Meridian Productions. The synopsis (taken from Wikipedia) is as follows: Anita Margolis had vanished. There was no body, no crime - nothing more concrete than an anonymous letter and the intriguing name of Smith. According to headquarters, it wasn't to be considered a murder enquiry at all. Chief Inspector Wexford, however, had other ideas. Included are notes, changes, and shooting/rehearsal scripts. |
| Individual or organisational biography | From his earliest days working on ITV's Armchair Theatre productions to his dramatisations for popular, lavishly produced series such as Agatha Christie's Poirot and Jeeves & Wooster, Clive Exton was a screenwriter who brought intelligence and depth to television drama. (see Saturday, 18 August 2007 Independent Newspaper).
