The Glorious Hazard

on BBC Home Service Basic

View in Radio Times

Written and produced by Peter Watts One of the most remarkable feats of endurance on record took place last February, when four wounded men of a British long-range desert patrol were cut off from their unit in the Libyan desert. Faced with the choice of an eighty-mile walk to surrender to the Italians, or a three hundred-mile walk to a Free French post, they chose the latter.
It is the story of this heroic and successful exploit that listeners will hear this evening.
