Together with his wife "Steve", Paul Temple solves the featured "Whodunit" crimes in a quite British way with subtle humorous dialogues and rare "action". Paul Temple was "born" in the 1930s as a radio detective and later was adapted for film, the first of which was released in 1946 as ''Send for Paul Temple''. In all four cinema movies were made:
television series of ''Paul Temple'' promoted on the cover of Radio Times magazine.]] Durbridge licensed the character to the BBC , which has made since 1969 64 TV episodes, starring Francis Matthews as Paul Temple, who was assisted by Ros Drinkwater as his wife Steve. 52 parts of the series were produced together with the German TV-station ZDF, making it the very first international co-production of the TV era. The Theme Tune of the series was written by British composer Ron Grainer . But as told before, the stories about Paul Temple also were very successful as radio serials. So again in Germany, where 12 Paul Temple-novels were converted in the 1960s into radio serials, each part ending with a Cliffhanger , making them to "Straßenfeger", which were listened to by huge numbers of people, leaving streets deserted. The speakers were of national renown, e.g. Paul Temple was spoken by actor Rene Deltgen (born a Luxembourg ian) and he was supported by e.g. ''Gustav Knuth'', ''Paul Klinger'' and others. Almost all radio serials are, despite their age, published on CD as audio-books in the meantime. Two short-living comic-series by the ''Aachener Bildschriftenverlag'' and the ''Luna-Kriminalromane'' are rare collector's items. GERMAN PAUL TEMPLE RADIO SERIALS
