'Biggles and the Pirate Treasure'
Four Biggles adventures adapted by Bertha Lonsdale from stories in the book by Captain W. Johns
3-' Biggles and the Unknown Diamonds '
Production by Trevor Hill
Last week's adventure took Biggles and Co. to the Continent; but when Air Commodore Raymond displays a nice line in raw diamonds before them they are soon interested in yet another case - especially as H.M. Customs have no record of the stones. Biggies and his pals arrive in South Africa-close to the source of one of the most valuable diamond fields. They soon take on a plane-load of trouble - including monkeys!
