I noticed one of the comments stated they had given up TV for old time radio shows, especially these you upload for us. I agree with this 100%. Our minds are the picture screen and they are loaded with cues to trigger these images. Also, these shows are written by pure talent and do not use any of the modern day harsh language etc. Thanks for your efforts to give us these AWESOME radio shows.

Thanks for listening and for your kind comments. I really enjoy these shows too. They say it's better to light one candle than curse the darkness...

You are so right, Roland! I gave up the tv for decades. BBC radio plays are the best addition to my life.

I threw out our tv years ago - a while after ‘he who controlled the remote’ left! Then I found I didn’t much like the content anyway! Great decision!

Indeed I too have given up my TV licence as could go eight weeks or more without finding something decent to watch. Radio plays and audio books all the way for me. I do not give TV a second thought. A shame as when I was growing up in the 70s/80s there were only three channels til 1982 and there was nearly always a good documentary or a decent drama. Even the news was presented correctly.

I’ve read through all the comments left and have to agree, I absolutely love listening to these plays. I too live alone so I’m able to listen all night long without disturbing anyone, bliss! Thanks so much. Please do keep up the good work. So very much appreciated. 🤩

Brilliant, I started listening to radio plays when I did long distance driving. I have been hooked ever since. So much better than television.

I know I said this before, I'm sorry. These are like actual theatre. I love this show! Thank you B)

While stationed in the US Army in Germany in the 80s I used to listen to radio programs at night on American Forces Radio and I was hooked! After that tour, I spent years searching for old time radio programs on CDs. It’s wonderful to listen to these awesome radio shows on your channel. Thanks so much for sharing!!

I remember those times when that was all the entertainment I had while my husband was at work on a base in Germany. they even had soap operas which became easy for me to imagine the scenario in my head while my babies were sleeping. I love listening to these old radio shows. Thank you so much for posting.

Thank you for the play.. I love to listen at night and fall asleep.. I stopped watching TV well anything American.. To much sad things going on here.. I love the old mystery plays.. They take me away..

Thank u. I have enjoyed the older writers and artist you have shared. Simple things like a larger vocabulary than modern writers. And the world from yester-years entertain the imagination.

Chesterson, thanks much. So much more clever than PCTV. Appreciate your effort in making these available to us all. Love Wallace and Wingfield.

Excellent story. Reminds me very much of "Cousin Kate" by Georgette Heuer.. thank you for posting it. Also agree that these plays are much better than watching TV..your imagination is used and you're right in the middle of the drama

Yes, it's more or less the same story as Cousin Kate.

Just loved hearing this radio play, it reminded me of when I was a girl 65 years ago listening to tha radio program the Caltex Theatre of a Sunday night .my ear glued to the station .Thank you for the download. Adelaide South Australia. 24.8.21. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We didn't have TV until 1954. So I lived listen to radio shows. It is wonderful to get to do it again. Thank you 😊

This was an old black and white movie which was extremely good as is the radio play. Thanks for sharing ♥️♥️

Wonderful play really good actors. Thank you. Bob.

Wonderful play thank you for your work in bringing it back from the past. Regards your Canadian friend Liam.

Thank you for sharing such entertaining audios! You’re right, you are brightening the lives of so many. I live alone with my kitty and dog, and you certainly brighten our lives - yes, they listen too, although they usually drift off to sleep. 😊

Thankyou for such an intelligent channel, allowing us to consider and not be lead like cattle.

Great play. Wonderful acting and Willie's confession at the end was griping and exceptional. Thank you for airing our wonderful plays. Superb!

Outstanding entertainment! Excellent!

Thanks a lot dear Uncle Chesterton. I have been missing your afternoon plays recently due to one of our bi-monthly weeks away, this time in 'Dystopia-On-Sea' Redcar....Ha' - I wouldn't have minded but even the locals looked under-the-weather and lost.....but I DO have to say that the local Battered Creme Eggs from the Chip Shops were astonishing and as a consequence my life has changed radically ! Thanks once again Uncle Chessie lad...and do please give mine and Lotties best wishes to Auntie Elvira.

Enjoyable, excellent narrator and good sound quality.

Wonderful twist at the end. I didn't see it coming.

Thanks G.K. Superb quality uploads!

Very good.

One of the best I've heard in a while. Good audio

Stupendous

Unfortunately I read some of the comments whilst listening, so found out the ending. Won’t do that again!!!

Really good, thank-you x
