A series of sound shots and impressions of Great Britain's entry into 1938
The broadcast will open with an impression of the crowd outside St. Paul's Cathedral on the occasion of the Watchnight Service. Then listeners will hear three short talks from Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, which will describe how New Year's Eve is being celebrated in each place. Howard Marshall , in a studio at Broadcasting House, will then give a word picture of how the last day of the year is being spent in different parts of the country. Finally, listeners will be taken over to the Chelsea Arts Ball, at which Thomas Woodrooffe will be present to describe the gay scene.
