A collection of persons and personalities who will broadcast views and information on life, London, the country, and the world-tonight and every Wednesday
Anything of interest, things that don't necessarily get into the news, things happening in London or in the English countryside, or on the Continent, or across the seven seas - listeners hear about them all in ' The World Goes By'. This series has proved so successful that three months of broadcasting have whetted the appetites of listeners, and it is to be continued for three months more.
Five five-minute talks-the first about something in London ; the second about something in the country, and always given by the inimitable Petulengro, of In Town Tonight' fame. (Every week he goes into the countryside-somewhere or other, and comes back and talks of something interesting which he has seen.) Then follow talks about events in the rest of the world, given more often than not by travellers who have just returned. Commander Gould, Commander Campbell , and Ella Maillart have all broadcast in the series more than once.
