Dark Brown is an early Australian television film, broadcast during 1957 on ABC. It was broadcast live in Melbourne.[1] Although it was kinescoped (and was repeated several months after the original telecast), it is not known if it was shown in Sydney (these were the only two cities in Australia with television at the time). It aired in a 45-minute time-slot, but the exact running time is not known. Its cast included Walter Brown, Agnes Dobson and British actress Laura James.

Original telecast was on 24 June 1957, repeat telecast via kinescope recording on 30 September 1957.

According to AustLit, "Nothing is known of the origins of this story, nor have the script-writer and director been traced. However, the work does not appear to have been either produced for or broadcast on British or American television; this, combined with the Australian cast members, suggests that it was written explicitly for Australian television."[2]

Plot
