Another historic episode in the annals of the Torbreck Home Guard, by R. J. B. Sellar. Produced by Moultrie R. Kelsall
In a broadcast last month listeners were introduced to the Torhreck Company of the Home Guard, which gained the distinction of outwitting a regular Army detachment in night manoeuvres round the village.
This evening you will hear a further episode in the career of these worthies. The programme has been written in light-hearted dialogue, which nevertheless serves to underline the fighting qualities, determination and spirit that exist throughout the entire Home Guard, and exemplified in the imaginary doings of the Torbreck Company.
