Afternoon Theatre: Billy's Last Stand

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by Barry Hines
Selected for Friday
With Arthur Lowe as Billy and Ronald Baddiley as Darkly

'Let's get this straight once and for all. I'm holding this shovel, they've employed me to do the job and they're paying me when it's done. I've got a job and you haven't. I'm working and you're watching; and now you're offering me a partnership in my own job.'

A chance to hear again some of the best one-hour plays broadcast in recent years.
