Entertainment Radio The Secrets of Scotland Yard was a successful crime drama series, initially airing internationally between 1949 and 1951. Selected episodes finally came to a US radio network for a brief run much later in 1957 over the Mutual Broadcasting System. The series boasted well over 100 episodes, one of which, "The Bone From A Voice Box", apparently served as the prototype for another well remembered Towers Of London dramatic series, The Black Museum. In both series, well known actors were employed as host / narrator, Orson Welles in The Black Museum and Clive Brook here. In fact, the shows were so similar that some of the same actual Scotland Yard cases were dramatized for both series (with totally different scripts, and casts). The Secrets of Scotland Yard was an independent production of the Towers of London syndicate in England for world wide distribution. Each week, an audience of anxious radio-listeners tuned in to hear these true crime stories of the London Metropolitan Police unfold, as the detectives at the Yard investigated some of England’s most famous criminals. Their trials have become legendary. Stories presented in the series include the theft of the British crown jewels by Colonel Thomas Blood; the story of a man who finds an armless and legless body wrapped in ribbons and lace; or the strange story of two close brothers who love one another enough to contemplate the murder of a brother’s affluent, yet unsightly and ignorant, wife. Murders, forgery, and robberies all get a through review on the program. Each time, Scotland Yard detectives are afoot to solve the crime mystery! The Secrets of Scotland Yard was initially hosted by Clive Brook, probably for the first year or so. To add to the air of authenticity, Brook sometimes discusses matters with Percy Hoskins, a 1950s crime expert and reporter for the London Daily Express. Hoskins knew every nook and cranny in London’s seedier districts and personally reported on many of the major crimes of the day. A student of crime, Hoskins was also one of the founders of the Saints and Sinners Club of London, an educational organization dedicated to true crime investigation methods and results.

  • Air Dates: The series originally aired in the United States from 1949 to 1952. Some sources indicate that selected episodes also had a brief run on the Mutual network in 1957.
  • Host: The program was primarily hosted by English actor Clive Brook. He provided background information and commentary on the cases.
  • Content: "The Secrets of Scotland Yard" was known for its attention to detail and authenticity, with episodes carefully researched to accurately portray the methods and techniques used by Scotland Yard detectives. It covered a range of crimes including murders, forgeries, and robberies. Some famous cases featured included the Green Bicycle Murder, the Houndsditch Murders, and the case of the Croydon Poisoner, and even discussion of the unsolved Jack the Ripper murders.
  • Legacy: It was one of the first radio shows to focus exclusively on true crime stories, paving the way for other popular shows in the genre, such as "Dragnet" and "The FBI in Peace and War." While popular, some critics noted it was sometimes criticized for "glamorizing crime."
