20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA

on BBC Home Service Basic

by JULES VERNE freely adapted as a serial in eparts by Lance Sieveking
Part 6
It is now January 1867. Professor Aronnax, his servant Elbow, and the harpooner Ned Land are still on board the Nautilus. They have been Captain Nemo's prisoners for three-and-a-half months and have travelled nearly seven thousand leagues under the sea.
From time to time there is a tremendous concussion as the Nautilus rams a ship. Captain Nemo takes Aronnax and Elbow hunting in the forest on the bed of the ocean. They arc in breathing-machines and have lamps and electric guns.
