The Clock


The Clock was a great mystery-suspense show of the late 1940s. It was an Australian series produced by Grace Gibson which was imported and aired intact over the ABC network for some 15 months. The settings were generic and the actors and actresses spoke without a perceptible accent and for that reason the program sounded "American". At the end of this run the series continued for another 13 weeks but now with an All-American cast with new scripts and the entire crew including the cast, directors, musicians, etc., Americans. The series aired beyond this 13 week time period but some time after May 1948 since there are at least three circulating Clock programs from late 1948.
