Whitehall 1212 was a weekly crime drama radio show that showcased authentic stories taken from the files of Scotland Yard' s Black Museum. The episodes, described as " the plain unvarnished facts, just as they occurred" , followed the perspectives of the police working on the cases, providing a toned-down portrayal of crime. The fictional host, Chief Superintendent John Davison, acted as the curator of the Black Museum and used the artifacts as a basis for each episode. The series was well-researched and featured an entirely British cast to retain an authentic appeal.< / p > < p > The show aired on NBC from November 18, 1951, until September 28, 1952. It ran almost parallel to another show, The Black Museum, produced by Harry Alan Towers, which offered a more dramatic and sensationalized version of the crime stories. While The Black Museum incorporated scenes from the criminal' s point of view, Whitehall 1212 focused solely on police perspectives. The show' s writer-director, Wyllis Cooper, was known for working on Quiet Please and Lights Out before tackling this fact-based crime series. The cast and production of Whitehall 1212 were based in London, and the series had official support from Scotland Yard.
