What happens
Richard Ferris, a young English student on a summer trip, loses his money at the roulette tables in Monte Carlo. A mysterious woman named Tina Vellong approaches him and asks for help getting to Ankara, offering him 50,000 francs. Richard agrees, and they board a train bound for Genoa, but they soon find themselves pursued by men who want to stop them. The episode is from the Escape series, first broadcast on October 8, 1950, and this part of the story follows their attempts to evade their pursuers on the rail journey.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
