Strangers Three (Aired December 5, 1948)
Rocky Jordan (Jack Moyles/George Raft) is the proprietor of the Café Tambourine located, according to the announcer, "not far from the Mosque Sultan Hassan," though he is originally from St. Louis. As an American restaurateur in a North African country, Jordan is somewhat similar to the Rick Blaine character in the film Casablanca, though the Café Tambourine is apparently a much less salubrious venue than Rick's Bar. The announcer describes it as being "Crowded with forgotten men, and alive with the babble of many languages". Each episode sees Jordan confronted with a "crime, a mystery, a beautiful woman, or a combination of the three". THIS EPISODE: December 5, 1948. CBS Pacific network. "Strangers Three". Sustaining. A shadow with a felt hat and tweeds introduces Rocky to lots of new people...living and dead! Jack Moyles, Bernard Gerard (writer), Cliff Howell (producer, director), Milton Charles (original music). 29:41. Episode Notes From The Radio Gold Index.
