Joseph Proctor's Money is a 1951 British television play.[1]
It was based on a 1948 novel by W. H. Lane Crauford.[2][3][4] It was the first of Crauford's novels to be adapted for television and some rehearsals took place at Robert Beatty's house due to a flue epidemic. The adaptation was by Rex Rineits dubbed by the Evening Standard as "TV's rising star of 1950."[5]
Sam Karsh told the police that his first wife. Poppy, had run off to South Africa with his twin brother George. That was a story which needed looking into a little more closely.
