With so much rubbish on the tv and radio nowdays its realy good to find somthing worth while to listen to these audio dramas a point in qeustion. download as many as I can.
Thoroughly enjoyes this. Bill Henderson was my brother's teacher at Belmont Academy in the 70s. Prior to Take the High Rd Fame. His wife was Head Teacher at Kincaidston Primary Ayr, in the 90s. A small 🌎
That's a nice txt Elaine, even more so as it's literally lit the touch paper to a memory esp if the parent is no longer with us, so it can make it so much more wonderful. They're precious.
Enjoyed this play very much, thank you for all your time and effort in bringing these wonderful plays to us. Also, I found the biography of William Knox very interesting, thank you for the extra effort. 😁💕💕
Great entertainment. I did have a smile when I heard the special effects towards the end... out of Hollywood ( no spoilers from me lol) thanks for finding this. Two thumbs up.
Great play oh isn't Google brilliant, this play first aired Saturday 18th January 1964!! The Google site sent me to the BBC Home Service which then gave me a heavenly list of hundreds of these shows but who needs the BBC when this great site has a plethora of fantastic dramas!!
@@michaelbedford8017 sorry Michael what i meant was who needs the Beeb as an index but The BBC make and made total quality programmes that will outlive us all!!
Just great! I remember watching Bill Knox on STV in the 70s. Seems like yesterday. Can see his grey hair and glasses yet. This was a very enjoyable story. Probably im biased in favour of Bill Knox, but being from Ayrshire and a regular visitor to Glasgow, I enjoyed listening to 'my own tongue '
Other Bill Knox radio dramas include: " The Tallyman " " A Taste Of Proof " and " Draw Batons " , They are all as smoothly written as this one. And all three are available via Chesterton Radio.
A great romp. The musical score contained some classic chase sequences which added to the tension with a little help from sound effects. The story was far-fetched in some respects. Who actually eats off Gold Plate?? And melting down Gold that is about 25-50 microns thick is going to require very large amounts of Plate. Nevertheless thanks for uploading 👍👍👍
'In fact as a taxpayer I demand it!' Ha ha, good luck with that. As a taxpayer you have no rights except one: you have the right to pay and pay and pay....
No......1 of today 8[26]21 Another great story from so long ago....... Well, to mister Chesterton and Company : As always after I play,. I must stop and take the time, to show my appreciation once again........ Well with that said, I guess I will leave you to it. I positively know that we will meet again, in the future, in another aisle, in another grand old theater like this one. Just maybe next time I will take my girl and I and go sit in the balcony to watch the play. In this theater you can see, the stage so much better from the balcony. Go check it out before you leave cheers chesterton....... ...... ..
Despite not having a clue what was going on much of the time, I enjoyed listening to this.More as background noise whilst painting. That Italian accent was incredibly awful. It swayed into Indian/Caribbean and other unrecognisable regions more than Italian lol
Ok, the dad takes the blame for the murder to save his son. Then his other kids set out to kill their brother in revenge. That seems pointless since it won't bring their dad back, and many parents would give their own life to save their child's. The guy went to his death happy in the knowledge his son would live on. Why would his other children want to undo that?
You would be surprised it is common practice for life sentence prisoners to spend their final years of sentence in an open prison so as to enable them to rehabilitate more effectively on release.
Good grief. Thank you for posting these. They are fantastic.

This took me back, used to listen to radio plays with my mum, happy days 😀, the music was the best😊

'but who needs the BBC' you say.
You must be an idiot. Who's going to make the next generation of quality radio plays?
@@michaelbedford8017 sorry Michael what i meant was who needs the Beeb as an index but The BBC make and made total quality programmes that will outlive us all!!
What about a brief synopsis rather than Wikipedia on the author. People can look that up for themselves if they are interested
Even just the broadcast date would be nice.
Bravo !

only interesting thing about this is the title
Bill Knox used to present "Crimedesk" on STV,he always referred to the criminals as "Neds"(non-educated delinquents)
Well first time this story not good over the top the readers
???!!!!?
???!!!!? Me too. 😂
The anti-Irish narrative is strong in this one.
No synopsis required

No probs for me, I've heard it twice before; for others it's a 'spoiler'.
Are you a troll, or just brainless?
Let me guess you have very few friends and a mother complex?
Spoiler alerts!
Ok - the guy is serving life for murder and ends up on a minimum security facility?
I don't think so😁

In Britain today anything is possible. It's a miracle he wasn't
