View in Radio Times

Spring, 1940
Written and produced by Francis Dillon
One of the speakers in this programme, in which farmers themselves will tell you of the countryside and of their problems and achievements in the critical spring of this year, made the pertinent remark: There's a war on now and we'm all Fairy Princes, but 'tisn't so long since we was all Cinderellas.'
Among the farmers who will come to the microphone are such well-known names as A. G. Street , A. W. Ling , and Ralph Wightman.
