Orson Welles introduces Scotland Yard's Black Museum, a warehouse of homicide where everyday objects tell grim stories.
As heard by us
A clipped police puzzle where small witness details do the work.
Glass Shards makes The Black Museum into a brisk police procedural. A woman remembers a small, shifty visitor asking after a nonexistent Beacon Garage, and the case tightens as two matching descriptions line up and a weapon turns up behind a hedge.
Why you'd press play
Follow a murder trail built from a false garage name, two matching descriptions, and one jammed gun.
