Jezebel's Daughter

Jezebel's Daughter is a 1941 Australian radio serial by Sumner Locke Elliott for the George Edwards Players. The serial was one of the most successful from Edwards.[1]

The series was produced again in 1946, 1951,[2] and 1954. The Brisbane Mail said it was "so unconsciously funny we rush through the washing-up every morning to be there in time to have a good laugh at it... Locke Elliott must be kidding somebody."[3]

Premise

"A woman fights all that stands in her way, only to find in middle-age that the very thing she has most wanted, the love of her daughter, is denied her. What she does to obtain a terrible revenge is told."[4]
