 Thrilling Days of Yesteryear : Thrilling Days of Yesteryear
Tales of Fatima was a second attempt by Rathbone to equal his success as radio’s Holmes, but a good many OTR historians are in agreement that the program fell woefully short of the high mark established by the earlier Holmes series (John Dunning refers to Tales as “a laugher”).
The “Fatima” of the program’s title refers both to the cigarette brand and a sultry-voiced siren named Princess Fatima, who in the style of “Eugor” on Rogue’s Gallery, would offer up a cryptic clue that was supposed to help Rathbone (who played himself on the program) solve that week’s mystery.
And just like Tales of Fatima, he’s unafraid of poking fun and laughing at himself—as his marvelously adroit comic turn in Danny Kaye’s The Court Jester (1956) easily demonstrates.

I enjoyed hurting, beating and humiliating Fatima (NMA).  I was positive she did not truly convert to Islam and that she has only surrendering to her female instincts.

More of a modern tale involving "The antiques roadshow" it still had me guessing till the end.
