Set in the Grantley Home for Retired Gentlewomen – what could be more peaceful and pleasant than four elderly ladies enjoying an evening’s TV viewing, watching the dramatisation of a notorious murder of 20 years ago?
But, when the TV breaks down before the climax of the drama, their thoughts and guesses as to the identity of the villain slowly harden into the conclusion that one of them is the real-life murderess!
Increasing frustration, suspicion and fear grip the emotions of the ladies, only to be dispelled when one of them receives a most unexpected telephone call.
As calm settles again and the ladies prepare to retire for the night, the behaviour of one of them is rather strange, to say the least!
