Some Distant Star A play for radio by DAVID H. GODFREY with Manning Wilson
Joan Matheson. Sandra Clark and Nigel Lambert
JOHN: Divorce! It's unbelievable - a diocesan bishop in the Church of England ... supposing that girl had been our own daughter.
GWENDOLINE: That girl isn't Rosemary and anyway you haven't been called to sort the matter out.
JOHN: I never said 1 had, but I daresay I could manage it. You know my views on the subject by now. A bishop of all people!
Produced and directed by DAVID H. GODFREY
(Repeated: Monday 3.5 pm) S.58 Weather
