This radio version of Dumas' novel was first broadcast on November 17 and 18, 1932, its first part in the Daventry National programme and its second part in the London Regional. The same procedure will be followed in this revival. The first part (in tonight'sprogramme) carries the story up to the great ball in Paris on the Eve of All Souls, and shows how D'Artagnan saves the face of Anne of Austria to the confusion of Richelieu ; while part two (in tomorrow's London Regional programme) paints the villainies of Milady in higher lights and carries the story on to her catastrophe.
