Nightfall: The Appetite of Mr. Lucraft
The Appetite of Mr. Lucraft
In this adaptation of James Rice and Sir Walter Besant's short story "The Case of Mr Lucraft", a down-on-his-luck actor makes what turns out to be a very bad bargain with a self-indulgent, voracious and quite rich old man. This was first published in 1875 so be warned the character of the old fellow's servant is not what one might call nuanced.
This appears to have been mistitled in the archive so now I am wondering whether what seem to be duplicates in the series actually are or if they are merely mistitled.
