The Blue Lamp
Sheds just enough light for MURDER
1950-01-19 | 84 minutes
Plot Summary
P.C. George Dixon is a long-serving traditional copper who is due to retire shortly. He takes a new recruit under his aegis and introduces him to the easy-going night beat. Dixon is a classic ordinary hero but also anachronistic, unprepared and unable to answer the violence of the 1950s.
